Team Mark & Friends Ep 50: 2 Friends Confront Exploitation, War, Drugs, UFOs, & Manhood
Two hosts tackle power and exploitation from Epstein to cartels, then move through Ukraine, Syria, cannabis policy, peptides, UFOs, Bigfoot, and what grit means today. We argue, laugh, watch a fight, and land on a call for craft, evidence, and responsibility.
• the pattern of wealth, secrecy and exploitation
• how impunity survives beyond one scandal
• war timelines, deterrence and endurance in Ukraine
• targeted strikes against ISIS and escalation risk
• Mexico’s narco politics and everyday fear
• policy vs opportunity in cartel disruption
• cannabis rescheduling, research and access
• peptides, recovery claims and safe experimentation
• hype vs skill in a high-profile boxing card
• evidence standards for Bigfoot and UAPs
• purpose, masculinity, and doing hard things
Right. And uh uh yeah, I mean, I'm not gonna allegedly say I was there, I was not there, but it sounded like it was a good time. I shouldn't say that because they took advantage. Okay, you have Ritz. Are you rolling on this? Yeah. Oh fuck, dude. You have okay, here's the problem. Like, legit, here's the issue. You have guys that were probably semi-nerdy growing up. Oh, yeah, for sure, Bill Gates and whatnot. Yeah, you know, they make tons of money, yeah, and now they have now that they have tons of money, they have cool toys, cars, jets, whatever have you. And I mean, you have an attractive female who probably doesn't have all that stuff, and she sees, hey, this guy's paying attention to me, and he has his own private jet. Yeah, I'm gonna roll with him. Even if she's in her 20s, even if she's 19, 18, 17, and nobody at that point is probably carting. They're just like, Oh, you're really pretty, you want to come party with us?
SPEAKER_04:No, Glenn was doing that.
SPEAKER_02:Or Glenn. Oh, Glaine, Glen was doing it.
SPEAKER_04:She was telling you who she was getting.
SPEAKER_02:She was telling these young girls that probably were like from rough neighborhoods, didn't have a lot of money, but they're very attractive, and be like, hey, we're gonna hang out with these older guys, they've got a lot of money, they have a private jet. Like, if an older woman did that to you when you were 16, you'd be like, Oh, you have a picture? Oh my gosh, she's hot.
SPEAKER_04:She's got money if you're naive and have no guidance.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, so it's a very real thing. And just because here's the thing just because Epstein got busted, you know what I mean? He got busted, there's pictures, there's videos. You know that kind of thing probably still exists, though. Oh, and he wasn't the beginning of it, and he's not gonna be the end.
SPEAKER_04:No, and that's just been going on since old time Hollywood, man.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, oh yeah, fatty R buckle and shit. Oh, absolutely. So you you know, so that's I guess that's what's like they're trying to fry everybody over it, but like yeah, I can see like a politician trying to fry Trump and trying to fry fry other people for it. He might be part of another group that'd be like, hey dude, we're gonna go to a hot tub and you know, we're writing all these chicks, right? But why not be transparent about that? And oh, by the way, dude, just to let you know, man, I got your back, there's no cameras there. Do you know what I mean? Like, yeah, but you're still there, and we don't know why. Yeah, you're on the flight logs. I just Clinton's on the flight logs. I just I I could just totally see them. I could just totally see that kind of lifestyle still existing. Oh no, yeah, that shit's going on. There's different islands, I'm sure. Sir. Sir. Cheers. Can you reset there? Salute. Salute and we are back.
SPEAKER_00:Merry Christmas.
SPEAKER_02:Merry Christmas! This is the start, season two. We were out away because we're responsible adults. We are working, but we are back, we're live, we're doing it live. Oh my god, I wish I had a cool. Is that my camera? Right now, we're on that camera. Okay, cool. That'll work. We are semi-technologically literate, man, semi-successful, semi-good looking, you know. And it's funny, like, we both got haircuts before we got on here. We both got like, I mean, we're even some we have even different things to drink today. I mean, um, dude, exciting. I'm glad to see you again, man. You look sharp. Uh, you too. Salute to you, my friend. Thank you. Cheers. Hmm. Um, T Diddy's fruity drink, which is delicious. T D anyway, but I mean 50 cent will not drink this. So that's my take on this whole Epstein thing. If they all knew what they were doing, they were doing bad stuff, you know. Um human smuggling trafficking is not good at all. No SCP. Especially when you're with kids. Yeah. Like, and and I well, we'll get into more of this detail in a second, but but the reality of it is is I can see Russian oligarchs in Europe, Ibiza, Greek, England. I can see these people that have ungodly amounts of money still being like, hey bro, we're gonna have a party, man. Why don't you get some girls? Some Saudis? Some somebody be like, Yeah, yeah, we'll just give her, we'll give her like a grand or five grand, and she'll come out, these girls will come party with us. And do you know what I mean? Like, sure. But why? Here's my issue with it. You're gonna run on disclosure, you you win the election. But here's the thing, though, I get where you're coming from, and then turn back on it. But that's the United States. We try to be up and up about it. When you get caught up, you know, we have the Justice Department, you have people that are very involved in politics, very people very involved in government, wanting to do the right thing. Once you leave the constraints of the United States and you go into third world countries where there you have a I I knew this clean lady, and she was telling me before she got to the United States, she um she was going through like what uh Watemala and all that, and she said, Oh, yeah, I would clean houses, and the houses were as long as your city street was here. And she goes, My part of cleaning the house is just cleaning the leaves on the plant. And she says, I would start on Monday at one end of the building, it would take me all week to clean the leaves and get the dust off all the plants. And by Saturday, I'd take Sunday off and I'd start again on Monday just doing the plants. So you have so imagine Guatemala's really poor, yeah, and uh um and Watemalan Latinas, they're very attractive, and then you have some knucklehead with umpteen trillion dollars right there in the middle of the jungle and saying, Hey girls, come on in, we're having a party. Do you know what I mean? It's like the recipe worked for it, it's like the recipe for disaster. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, and so yes, in the United States we do the right thing, yes, we encourage people to do the right thing, and yes, if you break the law to take advantage of people, you go to jail and what have you. But the rest of the world does not think the way we do, and if they can take advantage of that and flex, they do.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And doesn't make it right, it doesn't make it doesn't make it right, but it's the reality of the world we live in, unfortunately. I don't know. Do you know what I mean? I do think that could be changed. Um I think it'd be a massive it's it's a massive paradigm shift. Okay, I think with education and industrialization of a country, as a country gets educated and people um values really kick in and they they work for the money, and the whole society is a whole changes, the narrative changes, then yes. But then where you go to countries where you have people that have um there's a big divide between the people that are dirt poor and then nothing in between, and then mega filthy rich.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I think we're kind of starting to see that. Like that happened in Mexico before they got rid of class.
SPEAKER_02:Ah, dude, do we feel we we missed so much? Okay, I want to start off with so today is December something, 18th. 19th. 19th. We started this like two years ago. Has it been two years when Ukraine the Ukraine war started? Yeah. See, look at it, look at look, I gotta it's been two years. See, the viewers can't see on here. I feel very um oh wait, where's my controller? I have I I you know one of the many things I did on here was like, oh hey, I got a can't, I got a TV up here and I can see the video when I need now, but I don't really need to see myself on video. But what I can do is I have a computer or we can watch the fight, and I'd be like, hey, Artie, um, by the way, when did the Ukraine war start? Let me log. Oh you gotta be logged in, I guess. I need to figure out how to make it not go to sleep. You gotta be smarter than the Apple. But then once you're in there, I'd be like, okay, let me go to Safari. Safari, when did the Ukraine war start? You know what I mean? Like it's yeah, it's pretty nifty that it's on the TV, and we were able to be smart enough to figure that out because I just gotta figure it. It's just you gotta figure out the details, I guess. But yeah, let me see if I have internet. So, yeah, so we started this literally like within weeks of the Ukraine war starting, and that's kind of been the big talk of through all this when we were going on. Um, let's see, what did it say? Ukraine war. No, I don't know. I didn't get it. You just have to be smart enough. I need somebody like in the background typing, don't I? Yeah, pull that shit up, Jamie. I know, Jamie. Where are you at, Jamie? Oh, I'm sorry, you're with Joe Rogan, the guy that's really famous. Okay, so no, I think we were thinking of the Russia invasion. Yeah. So that's a Ukraine war, um, Russian invasion. So this is something I had tried once before, but it looked really quirky. But um, okay, 2022, February 24. So we had started this right around that time, and I remember telling like um Janettez at the time, I was like, dude, you know, like Russia invaded Ukraine. Like, oh yeah, like is that bad? Like, yeah, like it's pretty crazy. They're their own country now, and like, yeah. So we've kind of followed along. It's 2025 going on to 2026, still fighting, they're still holding on. Nearly four years, nearly four years. Negotiations go back and forth, and but they're still holding on, that's all that matters. And United States Revolution of Independence, six years. That was it started in 1770? I believe the revolution was six years long. Until independence, yeah, you know, so um, so you know, so Ukraine's in their 2022, they're in their third year. I mean, in the sense of revolutions and civil wars and all that, three years is still a drop of the bucket. Unfortunately, a lot of people are still gonna die and all that, but um, you know, um, yeah, dude. Like, that's that's pretty it's hard to believe that we're still okay. There it is. Um started 1775 to 1783. Okay, so they declared independence a year after it began and then didn't win. Is that what happened? I guess if it's uh till September of 83.
SPEAKER_03:I just don't know how to zoom this.
SPEAKER_02:You know, you know my control and scroll. But this is an this is an apple. Oh, I bet if I hold the that no, not that button. It's the keyboard's a little bit different. I don't know how to zoom on this.
SPEAKER_03:I feel not smart. Let me find out for you.
SPEAKER_02:Uh you know, we're gonna we're gonna get there, people. We're gonna get there. Like one day we're gonna have a a really cool show and we're gonna be like legit. We got lights, we got the Mexican hat, American flags and stuff, and we're like right there already. I feel like we're on the cusp of something great. And if you're a middle-maged a middle-aged American wearing tight shirts and short, messy haircuts because you're trying to be legit, we're right there with you. How old are you, Mark? I'm older than I want to admit. I saw Princess Di get married as a child. I saw the challenger blow up, saw the Berlin Wall fall. So I'm old.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, I saw all of that too.
SPEAKER_02:Sorry to dirt. Wait, you're born? 78. Okay, yeah. So you're look- I forgot you're a little older than me. Fuck, fuck you. Just a little bit. Not a lot. You too. I'm sorry, but Artie, fuck you. My bad. Only five years. Oh, I know. Only five years. Only five years. Yeah, it was a good five years, though. It was a good five years. But yeah, so uh um anyway, yeah. So you look great, though. You look great. I like the hair.
SPEAKER_00:Appreciate it.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so yeah, so so Ukraine war, third year. They're still fighting. We're with you. I'm glad politics team tends to help you guys out. I know they're trying to fight it, trying to do concessions, but like way to stay in there against uh the giant that Russia proclaimed to be. Yeah, screw the Kremlin, screw the Kremlin, screw, screw communism, and you know what, Mexico? If you're listening, Scheinbomb, that her name, screw you two and your communist views. Okay. Um this came out, and I remember talking to my Mexican friends, friend, and I said, I said that uh seeking paperwork here in the United States. I said, you know, your president says that the Constitution doesn't allow her to fight drug cartels in her country. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I used to have a cricket app. Hold on. Hold on. I I used to have I I bought I would I would go on conference calls. So those of you that are with me on here, you know what I'm talking about, right? Conference calls? That's what your easy button should do. And uh um, let me see here. Let me see if I still have my cricket app. Oh, I don't have my cricket sound app. So I would, I would when whenever there was like long pauses at these conference calls, yeah. Me and my friend, my buddy Brian were like, well, what if uh what if uh um you uh what if we like we had like a cricket sound and we could make cricket noises when it got quiet. I was like, dude, that's brilliant. So I downloaded an app that was like crick uh cricket sounds, and let me see if I can find it real fast. Oh, here it is, I found it. And so we would play like cricket chirping sounds, and I'd be like, and we would just totally be like just sitting because like we're on Zoom, we'd be like, just that's weird. Do you hear that? Huh? That's funny. Because you know, it's like I was just so retarded. I love it. I'm gonna get you a smoke detector one like does it hear it? It's like smoke detector battery, huh? But um but yeah, so what were we just talking about a minute ago? My my Mexico. Mexico. Okay, so yeah, that's what we're saying. We're like, so the president of Mexico, I'm gonna look at the camera when I say this, she said she cannot fight cartels plaguing her country because it's unconstitutional. Is she an idiot? No, I'm sorry, she's bought by the cartels. And I I I had a conversation with a colleague today. We're talking about immigration and how difficult it is now. And and our contention is still the same. You know, your average Mexican person, hardworking people, good people. Want to come across the United States, make money, great. My buddy that's a financial advisor down the street, he says, you know, no, it's not our responsibility to educate and and and and rich up the world, but it kind of is. Like in all started United States, our biggest export is our philosophy, more than anything else, but our wealth has also become a big export too. Right. If we're gonna spread democracy, the wealth has to go hand in hand, right? So so so yeah, so people coming here to work to support families abroad and it helps them. I mean, it kind of what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Yeah, and Mexico, and and again, you know, my Mexican friend. Yeah, yeah. It's like, so how do you feel about the Mexican drug war? She's like, What are you talking about? I was like, you know, there's been a drug war in Mexico, whether Mexicans want to call it a drug war or not. Right. There's been a drug war going on there for like when did they start chopping off heads? Uh it was after the fall of Pablo Escobar. No, it wasn't that like it was right around 2008 when things blew up over there. Oh, whenever Juarez became the most dangerous city and beat up back then. It was there. There was a reason for the the Zetas were over there, the El Chapo was over here, then you had the Felix Ariano gang. I don't know if they were the ones in Tijuana or over here, and like you had all these factions, but Mexico's been in a drug war. Yeah, since oh, since before oh wait. And and whether you like it or not, and and I I say this unequivocally already. And whether you like to hear it or not, I mean, and because I know we all everybody interviewed, but yeah, it's a narco state. Politicians are brought by the narcs, the uh a lot of people are bought off by the narcs, and here too, right? Here too, but not to the same extent, right? But uh um and there's I think there's the subtle differences is a thing, but but Mexico is essentially a narco state. Parts of Mexico, the rule of laws, according to cartels, there's no governmental rule, right? Certain certain groups of the population refer to her as a narco president, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean, I mean it's just it is what it is, and once you admit it, you can at least start fighting it. I mean, I don't know whether we said that Fox was kind of fighting him for a while there because yeah, he was legit. Him and Bush were buddies, and you know, they were cowboys, and you know, they they kind of saw eye to eye on that. Oh, speaking of speeding of narcos and cartels, did you hear what happened today? I saw the video online. Wait, are you talking about Syria? Huh? Syria? No, what happened? Drop roll. Marijuana. Can you say marijuana YouTube? Yeah, you can say marijuana. Or do you say Mary Jane, or do you say cannabis, or I don't know. I think you can say all of those. It's not cussing. It is no longer a class one drug. Not schedule three. It's schedule three, which means you can start using it to research if there's benefits for pain, which we know there is. You could start prescribing it on like a fat there's if you were to prescribe cannabis for pain to somebody, you could actually get a script from a doctor now, and your insurance will pay for it, and they can use it for research. Ver and maybe I don't know the maybe, maybe, maybe I'm wrong, but it's schedule three. But as a schedule one drug, you couldn't even research it.
SPEAKER_04:Right. It was like right next to uh heroin and meth. Gun to your head, anabolic steroids, and yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I forget what else. Um do I think they'll get do you think they'll get full traction for full legalization? Maybe I don't think it'll be recreational. It'll be, I think what we're gonna go federally medical. You know why it seems like we're going towards. You know why I think that? Why I feel like I feel what you're saying. Because there's money to be made off of it. Exactly. And if they can make money off of it, you know that they're gonna um.
SPEAKER_03:I just had a thought. I didn't do an audio check.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, do you wanna uh should we pause and check it? I don't know. Because heaven forbid we do three hours and then it's like like that one time.
SPEAKER_02:Oh yeah, we did that once. We are idiots. We are grown men, we are semi-professionals, semi-successful, fairly good looking to an extent, and we are idiots. We did a full show. I think I've done maybe two full shows, but your and my full show was weird because we did the um we we I don't know what I did, but when I played it back, all I could hear was like a yeah, it was like something was disconnected. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:I say check it. Heaven forbid, man, we we sit here and crank out a five-hour Christmas episode.
SPEAKER_02:Classes are going on. All right. So, you viewers and you people listening to the audio, you're just gonna hear us continue on like nothing happened. But in reality, five minutes will go on between in between while we pull our heads out of it because we're done. Okay, so you won't see you won't feel the glitch, but it's gonna happen. I'll be right back. Let's see here. Girls gone wall. Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun. So we are gonna ask me. You know where I'm- I think you already know where I'm gonna go with this question. I did. I can already hear. We are we are we are roughly generationally the same-ish. So when the world of portable camcorders came to America and Snoop Dogg was traveling spring break parties, and MTV parties were cool to record, and you could watch infomercials all night. Did you have the Girls Gone Wild tune stuck in your head forever? I mean, just because of the infomercial podcast. Yeah, the infomercial. And then you would get home like at three in the morning, you put the infomercial on. You'd even need to put like MTV on. That whole thing would just play and it was like a party in your house.
SPEAKER_04:It would take over. Over MTV or Nick at Night or whatever.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. What was that Nick at Night with uh Gilbert Gottfried? That they'd always have like a hot chick with him. He should be like up all night.
SPEAKER_04:No, I never saw that. Yeah. Is it a show or just like a promo?
SPEAKER_02:It was like a it was like a not like it was like Nick at Night, but it was hosted by it was like he hosted it and he had like a movie in the night and stuff. I love Gilbert Gosh. Oh, and he and he'd come out and talk like this, and you know, and uh you know I you know what I did watch recently, folks. We are back. We're up to our shenanigans, and we'll continue while we were just talking about the aristocrats! You remember that joke? Yeah! Oh my god. No, but the other night, and you may appreciate this. Not the other night, like a week ago or so. I was like scrolling through my phone. I was like, I want to watch a movie, and I'm driving around. I always put like in my phone holder a movie to listen to. Yeah. For some reason, I got the wild hair to look up nerds.
SPEAKER_04:Revenge of the nerds?
SPEAKER_02:Revenge of the nerds! Yeah, I didn't know there was like five of them or six of them. Like where he gets married, animal gets married and stuff. It was like American Pie? Yeah, like like I the the the the hold on. Um how many, how many nerd movies were there? Were there?
SPEAKER_03:Oh well Sephardie didn't want to open up. Screw you, Sephardie.
SPEAKER_02:Let me do that again. How many nerd movies? I I think it was like five um were there. I think it was like five or six. Um okay, Revenge of the Nerds, 1984, Revenge of the Nerds 2, Nerds in Paradise, pretty good. Revenge of the Nerds 3, The Next Generation, wasn't bad. And then um Revenge of the Nerds 4, Nerds in Love.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, is that the the wedding?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, where the dad didn't want her to get married to the guy that was like the animal or something like that. That was in 1994. You know what the one that got my attention the most was uh um uh uh The Last Generation.
SPEAKER_04:I I was I didn't even know that was a thing, man.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I I kind of um um the next generation because it has um newer people that let me see if I can um um had I I think that was the one it was the second or third one that had people in there that I recognized, and I was like, oh, that's pretty good. Oh, I think it was Robert Downey Jr. There's a new Oh uh Are you talking about Netflix movie? The one that he was in as a kid, and he was like a supporting role. No, no, I was watching one last night about the Zodiac murders. Oh, Zodiac with Jake Jillen. Okay, okay, okay, yeah, yeah. We're segueing all over the place. Okay, that's okay. Kernaments, Mexico, you got a problem with drugs, get with the program. You know, if Trump wants to wipe the cartels out, you know, he's not gonna charge you for it. Just what's good for the goose is good for the gander. Let him get rid of them. I think we're getting charged right now for that, man. Yeah? With inflation? Absolutely. Yeah, I I mean I'm just sorry. I mean, that's like I'm like, the Mexican people are suffering, they've lost a generation of kids. They try there's videos of people getting their heads chopped off in Mexico. Do you ever hear, do you remember the um ghost rider guy from Mexico? No, there was a cartel guy called the Ghost Rider, and when they when the opposing cartel captured them, they said, Oh, and isn't it a ghost rider? Ho, ho, ho.
SPEAKER_05:They're not French, but that's my I was like, ha ha ha. They call me Le Ghost Rider.
SPEAKER_02:So they they get the okay, so there's one cartel, and well, there's all these cartels, they fight each other. Well, there's one cartel, there's a guy called the Ghost Rider. He gets captured by his opposing cartel, they get tied up, and there's a video of this online, you can probably still find it. I've seen it. And um, they bind him and they put him on his knees, yeah, and they go douse his head with gas and they light him on fire. And he's screaming and they're videotaping him, and you can hear the guys talking about like ha ha ha, and it goes right there.
SPEAKER_05:Ha ha. You can't do a Mexican accent, bro. I don't know how Mexicans left. Like, he he he he.
SPEAKER_02:I don't know. So, so then like I think the gas like runs off of him and it kind of starts going up, but at this point, there's no skin on his head, and he's still alive. Shut up so for the first part of it, he's like screaming, like, ah, he's bound, so he can't do anything. He's like, ah, and he's screaming, and he you can tell pull that shit up, Jamie. Dude, don't do it, don't do it. And he's like, he's like in um um cartel are you pulling it up, ghost rider spur too soon. Uh um, ghost rider murder, and so then like so he's still alive though, like so because when you're on fire, theoretically, you would go into shock at some point, but you're still conscious, but it burns at first, but at some point your nerve endings burn off. Sure, he probably didn't realize so. There was probably a point afterwards where he's in shock, the nerve endings are burning off, and then they pour more gas on him and they light him on fire again, but then they eventually like shoot him or something like that. Good. So yeah, yeah, it was it was nuts, and I just couldn't um um ghostwriter murder um cartel. Um, maybe I shouldn't use Siri. I don't know. Ghostwriter Cartel video, the terrifying execution by Keval, words by remote control. In the words of Norm McDonald, thank you for the nightmares for the rest of my life. It's it's loading, it's buffering. This is like on some This is TikTok. Oh, okay. Thank God. This is a costume. Oh, that's not it. That's I mean, it's a badass costume. That's uh I freaking hate TikTok. That's cool. TikTok, you so, and I don't know, maybe they take down all these um um no, but I'm sure you can find the Daniel Pearl video, no problem. Oh, yeah, right. Um, oh cartel, maybe this is it right here inside the CNG's most disturbing. I don't know. Um, that's high quality cartel flick. Look at that. There's horses and there's a blonde chick. That horse looks like Katy. Wow. Catti's my dog, she's a big golden doodle. Um, I don't know what else to look at her about. I don't know how else to look it up. Let's see, what did you use? Cartel, ghostwriter, murderer, gasoline. Gasoline. So gasoline. If it has that in the background, gasoline. Safe searches turned off. A case too gross. Okay, this one might be it's YouTube. So you it's not gonna be on YouTube, obviously. It's gotta be like on Reddit. Um Gore Center. Um 4chan. Okay, here's an idea. So, yeah, you can't go on on YouTube and look this up. Rotten.com.
SPEAKER_03:I've got a oh, I don't know what to do here. Hold on.

SPEAKER_03:Oh, you have to create a stripchat.com.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, that's not it. That is obviously not it. How do I it's on fire, but it's not what we're looking for. I don't know how to get out of this window. Uh oh. This is my PC, bro. Me a PC. Enter. I don't know what this is. Um Enter everyone. Um you must have read and read the agreement in terms of use. I don't know. I don't know. If I so I click enter in a read- Oh, here it is. Oh god.

That's gotta be like after it. His face is like gone. It's like burnt off. No, that's his eyes.
SPEAKER_00:So this is like his So what did he do just so I feel better about it?
SPEAKER_02:He was so he was like some sort of cartel guy in his local group or whatever, and um, yeah, you know, whatever. Yeah, and so there was some sort of retaliation, and it was during that period where cartel members were killing cartel members, were killing cartel members. Um just another day, and but his nickname was a ghostwriter. Oh, that was his name before that was nickname. They're like, watch so once they captured him, they said, Okay, we'll well, we'll help you out, no problem. Bet. Yeah, ghostwriter bet. Yeah, so then they light his head on fire, and um I mean that might have been it right there, because that guy had no skin on his face. Holy shit. Dude, like seriously. So this is the kind of stuff that was going on in Mexico, yet the president says he does not have the constitutional power to find somebody getting their head face burned off.
SPEAKER_04:So I looked it up, and so I couldn't find anything that said she couldn't do it due to Constitution. It stated that she would not want to fight the cartel with the U.S.'s help.
SPEAKER_02:Check rock. Why? Because we're gonna actually do the job for her. Uh I I mean she's gotta get paid, right? Look at on that Nancy Pelosi shit. I am gonna get some nicotine. I need some nicotine. Go ahead. So, so yeah, so uh um, I don't know, man. It's it's it's I don't know. Like, what do he's like did that video surprise you right there? Uh yeah. Okay. That's pretty crazy. Do you do you remember um a radio host guy, late night guy? There used to be like coast to coast and all these guys. Do you happen to remember to remember one uh guy called Michael Savage? No. I used to listen to him, and he's like a New York guy. I mean, I don't want to say he's like a New York Jewish guy. Um, but and he was kind of radio host guy that was always yelling, and he's like, dude, why do you allow this? You're an idiot. Like, but he's like from East Coast. I mean, I don't know if he was Jewish or not. I mean, just for some reason, that's why I think he was. Just because he's from New York? Yeah, maybe he wasn't. I don't know. Um, but um, he would go, he was. I I used to like listen to him. He's he's I think his views were pretty right-leaning. He's an old man now. Look at that. He's still alive, he's from the Bronx. Well, the way he yelled, he was from the Bronx. Michael at Michael Allen Weiner, which goes by Michael Savage, occupation, political and social commenter, author and former radio talk show. So he's political party independent, conservative. I think he's very conservative, very right. So, anyways, very pro-Iraq war, you know, and a lot of people were or against, you know, I mean, very polar, but on his website, and I let me go back. I don't think his website's still up anymore. Oh, yeah, it is a savage nation, it is still up. So during the Gulf Corps, the Gulf War, he had this thing and he said, like, you need to remember what we're fighting against over there. And so he says, Go to my website, and if you go to my website, he would um he would say, like, the very first contractor that got kid that got that was kidnapped and that was beheaded, and they videotaped it and like publicized it, it was like such a big deal, like in the 90s or something, because nobody did that ever. Like, not live, not with a butter knife, like and so he says, you know, you can't find this video online no more, but it's still a link on my website, and you need to remember what kind of savages these are, and you go to my website and you watch that video. So the first time I saw a guy getting his head cut off was on this, was on here. He's used to be able to find the link to that first contractor that got his head cut off. And I remember think when so very compelling because if you were like pro, if you were not against the Gulf War, not against what we were doing there, and you watch this guy like five years apart, so like late 90s for you. But if the first time you're young, you're young, you're you're like Bambi, you're a virgin, very wet behind the ear, optimistic about the world that you were, and you still believed in love, and drugs were bad, and you know, I I didn't um I didn't know who this man that we know already was back in the late 90s. He was young Archibald.
SPEAKER_05:What's the fucking name, but alright.
SPEAKER_02:Yes. So you you go to this website and you click the link that he saved there that led you to like another server in Serbia or whatever it was. So it's like political rotten.com, kind of, and it's that very first contractor that contracted. And Daniel Pearl, is that the very first guy? Uh he was a journalist that uh it was a contractor. It was a contractor worker, like the very first one that turned up missing that got his head cut off online. They saw his head, right? It was like with a knife, and um truck driver, right? Something like that. Yeah, okay. Now I know exactly what you're talking about.
SPEAKER_04:It was after Daniel Pearl. Daniel Pearl was like contracted to you know do what in on the ground journalism, they grab him in the middle of a skirmish, and then there was like in Iraq, they started just snatching people, and one of the first ones is that guy that you're talking about, is uh this red-headed kid.
SPEAKER_02:And and you know, like mind you, contractors are guys, they're not like Blackwater or anything like well. I mean, they probably were working for that prior to Blackwater or somebody else, but it's just a guy that's going to work trying to make money. He's not like security guy, I he, like you say, he might have been a truck driver and um and all that good stuff. So some time, dude, Nick Berg, killing of Nick Berg. I remember that. And so 25-year-old 20. I wish I okay. We've got to figure out how to zoom this thing because I feel like a retard because my old man eyes just fail me unless it's a woman.
SPEAKER_04:Have you tried uh have you tried clicking the wheel?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I did. Apple! Why do you make it so hard to zoom Apple? I love Mia freaking PC. Where's Steve Jobs when I do need him? He was old, he would get it. Maybe he's still alive still world of desert island. No, no, no, but, anyways, so Michael Savage kept a video. He's like, You need to know why we're in Iraq and the savages we're fighting against or monsters. And so I clicked the link, and first time I saw a guy getting his head cut off was on Michael Savage. And what's curious about it, they yank his head back and they get the knife. And it's like it wasn't a little knife, it wasn't like a it wasn't like a full-on machete, right? Right? Why there's a machete here, I don't know, but better safe than sorry. Something like that. But um, um, no, no. So they pull his head back and they get the little knife and they start cutting. And he's screaming, and they get through like halfway through the neck, and the head starts detaching from the front because the spinal column's still attached and all that. And while he's screaming, or he's screaming while his um his uh um his uh um what do you call the throat? The esophagus is getting and the windpipe are being shot off, he's still screaming. And so if you pay attention to it, he's screaming, and through the windpipe you hear the gurgling of the blood in the windpipe while he's screaming. Good lord. Until like they open his head up like a like a pop top, you know, and they finish it off by you know tacking through the the the bones in the back and all that. It was it was the most horrific thing I've ever seen. And like from that moment, like any okay, any doubt I had about the person go for blood from co oil and all that stuff. I was like, irregardless of how I felt left-wise about it, it was like it takes a monster to do that, right? Yeah, and you're talking about a guy that's just trying to help out over, he's not even a soldier, he's just trying to help out, and you brutally murder him and to watch him die that way. And I watched that video a couple times. I was like, I'm gonna sear this into my brain to realize that there are people in the world like this that are monsters, right? Like horrible. Yeah, I'll never I'll never forget that. That's like a a lesson in humanity that I think um unfortunately you need to come to terms with. And then Mexico cartels, they're doing the free same freaking thing. I was out in Mexico, like when we went to go pick up some t-shirts, we got some tacos, and we were coming up the the um in El Paso de Juarez, there's a Santa Fe Bridge, one of the older bridges. It's in around we used to walk to go to the clubs, no clubs there anymore, and all that stuff. But we were coming through there, and and then I was talking to my buddy the next day, and he goes, Oh yeah, Marcos, there was a head found over there just the other day, and I was like, I just drove through there yesterday. Crazy. So you know that's happening again now, right? Well, okay, so um I think they were called express kidnapping now.
SPEAKER_04:No, we're like uh uh the week of Thanksgiving, they found chopped-up bodies dismembered.
SPEAKER_02:They were so they I have a friend that's oh from over there, he lives here, and we were talking, and I was like, Well, I still go over there and still getting my dental work and all that. He goes, Well, be he goes, Well, be careful, Indian. And I was like, I'm not Indian, but I will. And he's like, he's like, no, because he goes, Well, you know, and then he's so funny, he goes, Well, you know, them, them, them, them, them efforts down there are just they're just doing the express kidnappings now. And I was like, Express kidnappings. I like you go through a drive-thru and be like, I'm worth a thousand dollars, take me. And he goes, No, they'll pick you up and they beat you up, and they see how much money you have on you, and they take you to the ATM to see how much money they can get out of you, and they'll beat the crap out of you, and at the end of the day, they let you go because they get what they can out of you now instead of trying to hold you for two weeks to get them and get a million dollars because a lot of people don't have a million dollars, so at least they get what they can out of you, and then they throw you up but they kick your ass while they're at it. No, like, oh, that's an express kidnapping. That's cool, thanks. Cool. I'm not going over there anytime soon. Um, but I still haven't had a bad situation to rise, but I mean, except for that one time that you got stuck there visiting your friend and what is but there was a pretty girl involved.
SPEAKER_04:I mean, I get that, but no woman die worth dying over like that.
SPEAKER_02:When there's a pretty girl involved, and it's a it's a wild story, like who doesn't want to live that life? Thinking with the wrong head, bro. Still got the girl to the other day, man.
SPEAKER_06:That's true.
SPEAKER_02:It was glorious, like even the Uber would didn't want to pick you up. They didn't, they did, did they they didn't they didn't even want me to take me all the way to the border? He's like, nope, you get out of here, I'm going home, and I'm gonna go sleep on the ground. Yeah, and that's all and here I'm walking around like I'm just an American, and and it's funny because we do that around here, like oh, I'm American, not a big deal. They don't give a crap down there. If I got shot, they they wouldn't care. It's like, oh no. Stupid gringo walking around, didn't he see a shooting? He was probably a drug dealer. Get fenda ho. Like it's funny down there, that's how they justify it. Like the people they're like, oh, whoever dies are probably involved with the cartel. It's like, oh yeah, because the cartel doesn't kill people randomly. Because there's no such thing as innocent bias down and Mom or a kid going grocery shopping. Oh, yeah, the kid was obviously a cartel kindergarten cop kid. Yep, that's the way they justify that shit. That's dumb. It's stupid. You know what Trump help the Mexicans out. Just take them all out.
SPEAKER_05:We can't help them. We're busy. We're fighting the Syrians.
SPEAKER_02:I hate to say this. I don't hate to say this, but I'm excited to see Venezuela. If Maduro gets toppled and they get some sort of semblance in their government, like sanity in their government, I'll be the first one there. Oh yeah, you'll move there? No, but I'll spend like every weekend there. I love Venezuela. Have you been? Yeah. I love Venezuela. Interesting. Love. It was like people didn't. Is it marked off on there? Yeah, it is marked off on there. Right on the border of Venezuela. Oh shit. Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:He went to the border. He came back. He loved it. We're gonna take Venezuela. I because I don't.
SPEAKER_02:There comes a okay. Um sorry I I dated this girl. So if you guys know me, every story that I have said starts off like this. So I was dating this girl. Um and she came, she came to the United States fleeing from the cartels. So her best friend was dating like a captain in the cartel that took over their little town in like the place where Miss Universe came from in Mexico. Like the most recent, like Miss Universe from Mexico from that area, that region. And so when the new cartel came in, she started dating this guy, and it was all hunky dory. And so, you know, the the girl I ended up dating, she she was um best friends with her. And then so she was trying to get a visa to get up here, anyways, because she wanted to bring you know family and take over all this stuff, and just because it was already a bad time as it was, sure. Well, then as the cartel ward, as with all wards, one side pushes the other side out. Well, the new cartel came in, killed out, killed all the old cartels, pushed them out, they took over. So once the new cartel comes in, they say, like, so you're friends with the old cartel, like you guys used to go drink beer. Yeah, okay, you're dead. Yeah, and so this girl that was dating the guy, the guy that was a captain in the cartel, yeah, they got her, and I don't know if they sexually sold her or not, but they drug her um body behind a pickup truck all around town. Yeah, and they burned her house and they killed her family. Mind you, she wasn't a she was not a cartel member just by association. Just by association. Her family wasn't cartel members, and the the young lady that eventually ended up here had her found her visa and she went into hiding because she was best friends with her and they went looking for her. Oh, they did. She got out, she got out of her town like by days because her visa arrived, and she was able to get to the United States by like days. Good god, yeah, and like real. This is like real, this you know, uh, but it's not that bad.
SPEAKER_05:Come to Acapulco, it's not that bad.
SPEAKER_02:You just gotta stay in the safe areas, so crazy. Yeah, it's they're desensitized, yeah. So, so you know, I hope this whole Venezuela thing works out, like, yeah, okay. You know what the reality of it is, there's sweet oil there, which is the easiest to make gasoline and kerosene and diesel out of and all that. The one of the largest reservoirs of oil is there in that part of the Caribbean and Venezuela. Okay, yeah, fine, it's there. Yeah, and we'll benefit from it. Okay, big deal. Yeah, well, it's a big deal, we will benefit from it. But like uh I had a friend there and I'd I'd give them like 20 bucks just to buy a loaf of bread and eggs and milk and get like water or gas for the week because they can't make enough money, and even if they made money, the money they're had is so devalued and the corruption is so bad. And like my friend's father used to work for the oil companies, but he wasn't like a party member of like the Maduro Party and all that stuff, yeah. So he couldn't get a good job. He just wanted to work as an engineer because he was an engineer before, but because uh, you know, the government he couldn't get an engineer job and they were just living off government subsidies, and the the um they were like in a nice part of town where they were from, and water, you know, like, oh, the water went out for a week. Very natural. And I was like, Oh yeah, we just didn't have water for a week, and then the phone towers we didn't have electricity for like two weeks because of something happened, and because there's no power, there's no cell phones. And so I'd be like, I haven't heard from you in a couple weeks. Oh yeah, you know, power went out for two weeks. Damn. And that's that's normal. It's like, and my friend would be like, Oh, that's bullshit, but yeah, it's you know, it's normal. We just figured out like that's that's wrong. The people there, it's a the people there suffer for it. Maduro was a bus driver, and now he's like the one of the richest guys in Venezuela. Really? Yeah, how does that work? How does that work? So he was a bus driver, and he was a party member, and I don't there's like an association to him and Chavez. When Chavez died, he became the next uh person there and the ruler of Venezuela, and he had he hasn't allegedly been elected out. Allegedly, yeah, he wins every vote.
SPEAKER_00:He's pulling the Putin shit.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, in a landslide election, he's winning a mall, but he's also the richest guy in Venezuela now, and he was a bus driver when it all started. Crazy. Yeah. I guess he gave Hugo a nice ride at some point. Well, Hugo was like a legitimate hero for his people, Hugo Chavez. Yeah, um, because of the corruption that existed with the flow of money coming in, because of capitalism. Capitalism's good and it's bad, right? Because there's an influx of money and people had connection to businesses, he was seen as like the the like liberal, you know, the person the person that spoke for the poor. And when he came into power, you know, very socialist. He's gonna give the poor everything they need, and and it was all hunky-dory, and people saw him as a savior, and he was in the parameter, he was like uh in the military, so he actually you know was a soldier and all that good stuff. And eventually, as communism goes and socialism goes, eventually you can't keep on providing all these subsidies and corruption and money disappears. And and now we have Maduro Maduro where the country is vastly poor and they're still making tons of money, they still sell oil, they sell drugs, and political prisoners disappear now, and you know it's it's classic Russia gulags and all that now. In Venezuela, beautiful people, great music, great food. Great, you know, like Falcon, right? The state right there on the peninsula on the Caribbean. Beautiful women, great food, and they have a pirate problem because Venezuela can't handle the pirates. There's a pirate problem in the Caribbean, and it's 2025 going on 2026. We're not talking about Johnny Depp in Spanish. Fucking Pirates of the Caribbean, it's gonna be 2026, and there's a pirate problem in the Caribbean. So those kills, are those confirmed? Like they're confirmed pirates? It wasn't just okay. So a friend of mine. Migrants. A friend of mine, he um he uh typical American, he kind of did fairly decent money-wise, and all that. And he would take he would go for summer trips with buddies that had like private boats, small boats, not like huge yachts, probably like maybe small yachts or small boats. And um, he would tell me, go, Oh yeah, I was out with my buddy, and he was telling my buddy, I told my buddy, I'm gonna go to Mexico and I'm gonna come back. And do you know me bring supplies? He goes, Yeah, yeah, you know, bring back, you know, this and bring back that. We need this for the boat, we need gasoline, and we need fifty caliber ammo. And he's like, What? He goes, Yeah, we need fifth caliber ammo for the pirates, you know. Like when we're running, when we're running across like towards Venezuela to um Aruba at midnight under the cover of dark, we we don't have to protect ourselves. It's like a legitimate thing. Like, there's pirates in the current the the pirates of the Caribbean are still there, they never went away. I mean, all you have to do is have Johnny Depp down there on the black pearl. Crazy. Yeah, like yeah. Nuts, right? Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's not Somalia with Captain Phillips, no, but similar. Do you know what the Chinese do? Because the Chinese are trying to get experience military-wise, and they do stuff for the UN. So the Chinese were in was it Somalia, and they were doing like a peace mission, and there was like the rebels in Somalia or one of these Congo comp countries or something out there, and they were trying to defend their positions, and they got their asses handed to them by really by the Afric, these African rebels. No shit. Yeah, so then Chinese had the Navy out there as well. So whenever the Chinese Navy gets captures pirates, there's like not a whole we're gonna arrest you, we're gonna detain you, we're gonna set a court date, and you're gonna defend yourself. No, it was like, all right, we're gonna arrest you, we're taking you in, we're gonna execute you, you're done. You're a pirate.
SPEAKER_01:Damn.
SPEAKER_02:It was like that simple. Which kind of not a bad policy in some sense. Seems like we're enacting that now. I'm not opposed to it entirely. I don't know if you're killing people out there doing bad stuff. It's a fine line. Come on. Right. I mean, I guess it just depends on the intel that they're getting about what's on the boat. I mean, Artie, if you if you were a pirate killing people out there. Oh, yeah, you gotta go. Did they deserve it? I guess I I mean yeah, if you're killing people, you gotta go, you deserve eyeliner. I mean, if you were Johnny Depp-esque and with eyeliner and a tricorn hat, and he's a good guy. I know, so I'm saying if you're like Johnny Depp pirates of the Perry Caribbean, we might give you a pass, stud like you, you know. Yeah, you can work with them. Yeah, they're funny. He drinks rum. He buries rum in islands just in case. Okay. So a little bit of trivia, and I'm stupid for trivia. If you know me, I know I know a lot of information. It's the most worthless information in the world, but it's fun to know. So, Admiral Nelson, savior of the of the British Islands, the Admiral. You know what I'm talking about, right? Admiral Nelson? Yeah, I didn't know, I don't know much about him. Is he is he like Cook? Is he like John Cook? Um, probably like a bigger figure than John Cook. Okay, he's not just a whiskey. He's like the he saved the English style from invasion. Like he was a master admiral of the sea, and you know, um yeah. This um he he fought battles in England or in in Egypt against the French.
SPEAKER_03:The water? It's like a rocket ship going off freaking NASA. The air? Maybe. Let's see.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, yeah, well. Yeah. Oh, I see. So, so okay, so Admiral Nelson was a very famous guy. So when you go to the liquor store, there's called there's a thing called Admiral Nelson Rum. Right? Right. So they like Captain Morgan. Yeah. I don't know if Captain Morgan was a real person. We should look that up here in a second. But um, um, but Admiral Nelson was a real person, it was a real admiral. He was killed in a battle where uh he was just, you know, cannon shot wood, and he was just cut down by the by the artillery and whatnot. So oh shit. Sir Henry Morgan. Oh, I'll have to look that up now. Captain Morgan Morgan and um was he real? So, anyways, um like I don't know what battle was, I don't know the specifics anymore. I read about this, but when you die, they like when you're an important person and you die at sea, they don't bury you at sea because you're important. And Admiral Nelson being like beloved by the English, by the British, because he was he saved England from the invasion, and he won all of his sea escapades. You like my so um he um your sea lingo and so um so what they did is they'll usually put you in a barrel of some form of alcohol or something to pickle your body. And because something about I don't know if he chose to use rum or if he used or they used rum because that's all they had, because they would take rum to trade and all that, and rum alcohol lasts longer on sea, it won't go rancid. So they had a barrel of rum and they stuffed him in the rum to pickle his body to bring him back to England to go to bury him. That's wild. So now you have Admiral Nelson's rum. Okay, Captain Morgan, yes, Captain Morgan was a real person, Sir Henry Morgan, 1635 to 1688, a famous Welsh privateer. Do you know what a privateer is? So when you like say America goes to war with Mexico, now we have our navy that would blockade Mexican the Mexico's finest navy, our motto. But um, what they would do is they would they would pass like edicts or laws saying that you know anybody that wants to be a privateer for the American nation can go and do so, meaning that you can go and act like a pirate against your enemy's ships, go and raid them, invade them, rob them, and sink them, and steal their commerce, and you'll not be tried as a pirate because you're aiding the American nation. So that's why there's actually the word privateer.
SPEAKER_04:The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, gotcha. So so if Artie has a ship and Artie wants to Artie wants to help America, but he wants to make money, he's like, Well, America's at war with Mexico, so I'm gonna go be a pirate against Mexico, and America's gonna be good with it because I'm helping our country and I'm gonna make money off of all the stuff I steal from them, and I'm gonna kill a couple of Mama. That's privateer, essentially. So, yeah, so he was a professional privateer, and he was a buccaneer, he played football. Gotcha. See what I did there? I bought that for a second. Who raided Spanish colonies in the Caribbean for England, became well wealthy, was later knighted and appointed lieutenant governor of Jamaica, the basis for the popular Rums brand image. All right, is he buried in Tampa Bay? He was born in Wales, he's Welsh. He's Welsh, and they talk weird. He traveled the West Indies, Jamaica in the eight, 1650s career. He led successful often brutal raids against the Spanish settlements, acting as a privateer, uh, essentially a government-sanctioned pirate. Thank you. Rise to power, he became rich from his exploits, probably got a lot of tail. He's like, Arr. We raid for riches and glory and fine tail. Booty, booty. Oh, and uh, after attacking Panama was arrested by English, but later released, knighted by King Charles III and made deputy governor of Jamaica. Oh, that's interesting. He likes he exploits in the Kremlin form the basis for Captain Morgan Spice Rum Brand, though the iconic image is a stylized version of the real man. So he didn't look like that with a cape and everything with his leg on a barrel. I mean, he kind of looks like that. Maybe, I don't know. You have to see these pictures of him side by side. This is kind of like it doesn't look very friendly. Okay, I bet here's the black and white. It looks like it was done by a kindergartner, maybe maybe a fifth grader. He's got boobies. I don't know. It's hard to tell. He had a mustache. He had a mustache. A mustache, yeah. A mustache. Okay, here's an AI version of him. That looks like who does that look like? That looks like that actor. What's his name? Legolas. Yeah, it looks like Legolas. Wow, that looks glorious. Man, he's I'll drink to you, sir. Way to conquer the Caribbean. I hope you got that tang. Okay, let's move on. Okay, so we're that was interesting.
SPEAKER_03:That was good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I learned a lot. Mexico's a narco nation. I hope Venezuelan opens up. I will pay for us to go to Venezuela. We will abandon everything we have here and go to Venezuela. Have fun. You're gonna go with me. Get your passport now, dude. It is wonderful and I love it. And I got my passports ready, dude. Colombian and Venezuelan Spanish is so beautiful. Oh, you like it? Oh, I love it. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. I can't say what I want to say because it's it's inappropriate. YouTube would not approve. No, YouTube would not approve. But it's wonderful. It's beautiful. I would I would go get a bungalow down there. We're gonna go. So if if Trump, if you help a bell. Thank you, sir. I salute you.
SPEAKER_05:Mar Lago, we're opening in Mar Lago, Venezuela.
SPEAKER_02:I will go work as the bartender down. I love you, sir. Thank you for that. Okay, going on. Okay, so um, okay, so marijuana is uh it's uh at uh classified as schedule three. I hope there's benefit. I hope there is. I hope they can research it fully now.
SPEAKER_04:I wonder if there's any correlation between that and like medical care, kind of what's going on.
SPEAKER_02:They want to be like, like, oh so this is a really good segue. So Artie, I don't know if you know this. I self-diagnose and self-medicate myself as needed, not like opioids, nothing like you know what I mean. Like no, I know you don't have heroin, but you know, like I'm I'm very known for like, well, this kind of hurts. I'm gonna go down to Mexico and I'm gonna get me some antibiotics and some pain medicine and something topical, you know, for the itch. And and you know, and and you know, like I I my tooth had gotten infected, and I was like, Yeah, I need antibiotics. I'm gonna go get some penicillin, then I'll make an appointment with my dentist and I'll go and they're like, Yeah, that was infected, like, but it was good, right? He's like, You're an idiot, but yes, take take finish taking what you can take and you'll be fine. And we'll we'll we'll extract. I'm like, great, I'm great. They pulled it, yeah. How long ago was that? It was a while back.
SPEAKER_04:Okay.
SPEAKER_02:I I was helping them pull.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, shit.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I was I was digging, I was like, this is great. Do you have pain presses? No, no, it's fine. Let me see that little sucker and wedge it out. It was kind of gnarly. She was tripping down at me. Um like, Estos Americanos are muy locos, pero that's probably what they say. It's like I feel pendejo conoscarcetines because I always wear my South Park socks that they love. And so recently, I've been on to this whole thing. Thing about how to fix yourself, like legit fixes, non-narcotic, non-prescription stuff to fix your stuff, not like marijuana, not like um ayahuasca, nothing like that, nothing crazy like that, not mushrooms, but um I've been getting into peptides. Oh yeah, and and and it's hard to get a prescription for pharmaceutical grade peptides, but there's research, research quality peptides available, and you can buy all sorts of stuff. There's a lot of bro science, you know, muscle heads on Reddit. Bro, I was doing like a 300-pound bed press, and I took my my BPC5 157 and and I feel no pain, bro. There's like a lot of bro science on it. But in the in between all the bro science, you actually find good literature, good links, you find people that are related to the medical institute and be like, you should really try this, and you should really try it this way. And because it medical people can't tell you what to take and what to do because they're licensed on the line, they leave like breadcrumbs and you follow it. So I've been doing peptides in them. And the way it started was my long-fallen friend Sam. He uh um I was doing like uh uh jujitsu with him one day, and and he you know, he's like he's like, Sweet cheeks, you're coming out too hot, chill out. You're like, nah, dude, I'm just excited to fight. And he's like, Okay, and he broke my wrist. And so I started broke your wrist? Well, yeah, we were squid right. I deserved it. Oh shit. Yeah, you know, you know, like, you know, come on, you know, you know, how do you break it? He did a triangle and he just cranked it over until it couldn't crank no more and it just popped it. Yeah, I deserved it. I was like alive, like I'm like that little kid, like hee hee hee hee, I'm gonna kick your ass. Like, bam, bam, bap, bam. He's like, Do you give up? I'm like, I'm not gonna tap out, I'm not gonna tap out, you're not gonna chuck me out, you're not gonna chuck me out, I'm gonna fight you still. Well, there goes training for two months. Jeez, yeah, that's what happened. Sam, so yeah, so um I was an idiot. So before or after competition, uh before it was the way my first attempt. So yeah, it was like a while back, but but I had like a Crawford competition like the next week, but so he pops it, right? Yeah, and um like and everybody, the whole um gym, the whole um Dojo Dojo, they all stopped because it was like a big, like real distinct pop, and everybody just stops and looks, they all like froze, they're like, What was that? They like everybody knew what it was, like, who who just died? And I was like, I'm like, no, no, I'm fine, I'm good. Like, I'm just like, no, no, it's it's I don't feel a thing. I'm good, I don't feel a thing. And my my whole wrist, my whole head was already swollen up. Oh you can feel the heat coming off, and I was like, nah, dude, let's keep going. I'm good, I'll get you. Like, I swear to God, and he's like, and Portsam, he was like, Are you sure? Because um, that doesn't look good. I'm like, no, no, dude. I'm I swear to God, I'm fighting. And so we went for like another five minutes and and we're like fighting, and I can tell he's easing off, and and so we stopped. I was like, Oh, that was really great, man. He goes, Are you okay? I was like, No, it really hurts now. And he's like, Yeah, dude, that doesn't look good. I was like, because like it's it like swallow instantly, it turned red, and I called up a nurse friend and got my nurse friends. I was like, put it in the bucket of ice and water and see if we can swell and go down and went off from there. But I started a route of peptides back then. Um there's two peptides specifically for like joint and muscle um collagen? No, no, it's it's a peptide, like an actual straight peptide. Yeah, BPC 157, and the other one is um you get it online or what? Yeah. And so back then I was a bit of a wuss, so she would inject it into me. So now, like recently, um, now my hips gotten better and all that, and I was trying to get back in the gym, and my body was just hurting. Like, just hurting, like a level hurt. I haven't felt in a while. I was like, what am I gonna do? This is horrible. And so I was like, I ordered peptides before. I wonder if that's still a thing, and one thing left to another. And yeah, I've been taking different peptides, experimenting with them, different doses, and just injecting myself every day and ordering like bacteria static water, DMSO, and stuff to mix them with or cut them with, and being very careful about how I do it, and just go buy insulin needles and just shoot myself up. You know, I'm like, no, I'm good, bro. It's not like I'm good, dude. This is this is not illegal. No, no, it's it's also cutaneously. So you put it under the skin in the fat. And your body fat. And so I usually just do it like my belly right here, or like my love handles.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And um, yeah, dude. Like, how did how did that work for you? So I did a round of Tesla Morlin, which is like um helps you burn visceral fat, and it's like uh um like uh um HGH kind of thing. And I didn't know if I felt anything for the Tesla Morlin, but I took the the um I gotta feel I gotta look up the names real fast. Um I know which ones I was taking. I just like I said, I gotta look up oh the crickets. Oh, there's a cricket in here. Well now, sir. Um oops, I don't want to lose that. Um let me let me pull this up real fast because it it blows my mind enough that it's worth sharing. Like, and I'm not a medical doctor. What you do is your dill. It's just it's just it is what it is, right? And so I'm trying to I'm trying to figure out this order because this one website I use, they don't take credit cards. And so you have to um like Venmo them or something? Yeah, kind of like that. And and and that's cool. Bitcoin. There's there's there's there's there's one called a Wolverine stack, and it's two peptides you take together. Um you I don't know if you should mix it. Oops, that didn't nothing came up there. Um let me see if I can pull up um TB500 and BPC 157. Um one's like more of a muscle kind of recovery, and one's like a joint, and and there's a reason for it, you know. I like there's a reason for these names or what they do. I'm not a doctor and I'm not a pharmacy. I don't know how to get you the the depth of it, but the my body was going through soreness and pain, like joint pain, and I started taking it and within days, like within I don't want to say day, but within days. It's like one day I'm like at the gym, like, hey guys, I'm back. Let's do this, like and like, oh dude, it doesn't hurt. I'm good. Like, pain gone. And so I went through a month cycle and I was like, okay, I'll I'll take I won't I won't take it for a month and I'll then I'm gonna take it for a month again and see like the difference in how I feel. Right. So I'm gonna I'm gonna actually try to order more now so I can take another month of it. Okay, and then um there's another one called it's like an estrogen antagonist, it's called Schlu. Schlu. This one's really interesting. Um, this one is super interesting. Um PP332 and um nuts. Like it's supposed to help you like get more intense workouts and you don't burn out and you don't get winded. Damn, that sounds awesome. They call it like exercising a pill, but I take it and I inject it because like you don't you don't take the pills because your stomach breaks a lot of it down and you just don't get the benefit from it. Yeah, so I started injecting on this and I was unsure about this peptide. I'm like, weird. Like, what am I supposed to feel? It's like, are you supposed to be like Popeye? You get it? Like da-da-da-da-da-da-da, you know what I mean? Spinach, yeah, but it wasn't like that. But I was at the gym one day and I was going through the the workout, the the Metcon where you're doing cardio and weights and you're moving, and I'm like, is this stuff working? And I'm like, I'm all just like you know, I when I work out, I'm gonna retard. I have that song in my head, you're the best, you're the best. And while the beautiful kids stuff, yeah, while the while the music's going on in my head, I'm exercising, I'm like, oh, I wonder if this works. Like, I'm usually like really winded by now, and I'm just not I'm not sure if I feel like the results of it going running, I'm like, I'm just not sure. Like, and then like it kind of hit me, I'm like, I'm not winded. Like, I'm not winded. I usually at this point I'm like dying, and I'm like not dying. And so now I've noticed when that when I take it, like I go to the gym, like, oh, today's gonna suck. And when the suck kicks in on the workout, when you're like, you're dying, it's like it doesn't suck though bad, remarkably. Interesting. Like, it doesn't suck as much. Like, sometimes it doesn't suck bad at all. You you feel it, it's weird. It's not like taking coffee and you're like, oh, nothing like that. You just it works. Interesting. So I'm getting some new ones that are recommended and for in terms of mitochondrial health, yeah. So I'm really like stoked to try these out.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, man.
SPEAKER_02:And and and they're peptides, they're not, it's not like opioids, right? It's not um re-uptake inhibitors, it's not anything synthetic. I mean, it's just peptide. What's a peptide? Small piece of amino acid, organic matter, a very specific protein piece that turns on certain things or interacts with certain reactors, and there's a lot of science online about this. It's it's the science behind it is is a lot smart, is a lot more next level than probably what I can explain, but it works. I mean, in my experiences so far, it's been working, and it's been working remarkably. So I just I don't know, man. Like, I'm advice, sir. But um I don't know. There's there's there's legisl, there's legislation to make buying peptides illegal. You can't buy peptides like pharmaceutical grade, right? But there's research grade available, and a lot of companies have certificates that they're tested and that they're good. And yeah, the certificates be faked, but the two, three peptides I've already been taking have kind of been an eye like eye-opener to me. And so I'm I'm really trying to read the literature and get through the bro science. So I'm trying to get through the weeds and to find some good information on it, like what the because you have to mix it yourself, you have to dose it yourself, and try I'm trying to get like some solid numbers of what to do and how to do it and how much. But my experience up to now from the last three months when I've been trying it, mind-blowing.
SPEAKER_00:Interesting.
SPEAKER_02:And so now I'm really excited about trying some of these mitochondrial affecting peptides because they're talking about stuff like your body runs more efficient. Um talking about um reversing glucose sensitivity, they're talking about the way your body breaks down the glucose and fat and just the overall efficiency, the way your body used to work when you're 17 years old and you wake up and you had a boner in the morning, because it's fixing mitoch cellular mitochondria, and that's kind of the fire engine of the whole the engine of the whole machine, right? So I'm really excited to try these for a number of reasons, and um, I don't know. Somebody listening to me can be like, dude, you're an idiot, but the two that I've tried so far has blown my mind, or the three, I guess the old restack is two, but it's blown my mind significantly. It seems like something to look into for about a month's supply, roughly three to four weeks, depending on your dosage, it caught it'll cost me about 100 to 150 bucks, a week. That's not bad, man. That's really not so yeah. So if you want to take it for like a uh a couple of them for a month or a couple of months, you're I mean, the the four I'm buying right now is gonna cost me 500 bucks, but it'll be about a month supply. I'm willing to cycle on it for a month or two, see if I get really good a feel for it, and then cycle off of it and cycle back on. And if it's gonna cost me four or five hundred dollars to have like really long-lasting real um um results, it's worth the money. You're not going to the doctor, it's it's forcing your body to fix itself on a cellular level that it's not a statin, it's not a bandage, it's not a drug with a side effect. And I I can be talking out of my ass, but if this is if if if it's what it if it's what it says it is, and if I feel the way I if it works the way I feel it, I it's working, like why would the FDA and the Congress make it legal? So it works, they want you to take the pills and go to your doctor because there's so much money in being sick. Yep, exactly. And it's I'm a believer in science, and I'm a believer that you need a good industry to give you good medicine because there are people that need it. I mean, there's some illness that you need medication, it's true, there's some legit harsh stuff out there. I'm not I'll never take away from the miracles of pharmaceuticals, the miracles of doctors, what they do, but at the same time, if there's these things that exist that don't have side effects, and that this guy says side effects are just effects. Why do why do we call a medication side effect a side effect? It's not a side effect, it's just the effect of it. Yeah, you don't possibly because it's not the effect that you're aiming for, it's just extra But it's okay, it's an extra effect, but it's still an effect. Right, it's not gonna take effect and end up like you you don't want to take a pill and have suicidal thoughts. So so if this pill prevents your crotch from itching, but you're you're bleeding from your you're anally bleeding, it's like okay, well, side effects anally bleeding. Well, that's not really a side effect, it's just an effect of the pill. Yeah, you get rid of the crotch itch, but by the way, you're gonna anally bleed, it's just one of the effects. I I kind of liked how he explained that. Like, why do you call it side effect? I mean, if it happens, it's one of the effects of the pill. So so you're talking about something that has minimal. I mean, I don't know the the side effects or the effects of peptides, but I haven't had any side effects, and they say they don't have these counter-side effects, especially if you're not already not on medication. Yeah. I don't know, dude. Like, all I can say is that if do you want some more?
SPEAKER_04:No, I'm good, but before I forget, you mind throwing on that fight?
SPEAKER_02:Oh yeah! Finite! So I don't know, man. Like, all I gotta say is like I don't know, this peptide thing. There's something to it. I mean, there are you have you heard of peptides being able to take peptide before? I mean, I didn't know uh not the shot ones, like I haven't listened to that. Just the when when my wrist went out bad, somebody at the gym mentioned to me, well, you can take these peptides, get like horse peptides, and so they're like horse peptides, and that you've been using them on horses for a long time when a horse breaks something. So if you're telling me you have something that fixes horses, and a horse is a bovine animal that's a thousand pounds that carries around tons of weight and pulls wagons, and and it and it's and in labs it works on animals, and you're telling me we have this, but for some reason you're not testing this on humans, why? Like, you know what I mean? Like, yeah, like if it has a lot of potential for humans, what the hell is wrong with us? I know it's like I say, I know the pharmaceutical complex is a lot of money, and I know like it's just it's just crazy to think about. You know, I mean, yeah, it it goes along with I mean, the reason that you mentioned is there's business in ailments, it it benefits the structure of the moral of the story, folks, is don't don't self-medicate without talking to your doctor in a in an environment that's safe and secure, protected. I'm not telling you to do that, but consult your physician. Okay. You know what? Don't be afraid to take your health in your own health and do healthy stuff. Eat healthy, stay active. Do cardio. And and if you find something that has real effect, real results that don't have any side effects, don't be afraid to slowly stick your toe in the water. Was that a good way of saying it? I mean, I guess it is. I mean, I canbald it, but you know, a little bit. I'm stupid. Again, like I said at the beginning, I am stupid. Okay, here we go. We're gonna put the fights on. There's fights going on. Here we go. I'll give this to you, sir. Thank you, good sir. Because, you know, again, and I'll keep it muted, don't worry. Okay, because I'm getting too distracted here. I was like, what? Technologia? How does that little thing control the TV? Where does the little man changing the channel? What? I need a bigger TV, and here's what I need, huh?
SPEAKER_04:I mean, that one that you had in the living room would have been dope, but no, this works great. Oh, it's going down. Alright, folks.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, this is still not charging fast enough. I don't know what to do. Sad.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, we got the uh national anthem going. I assume they're gonna do the English one too.
SPEAKER_03:I'm trying to figure out what to do about the volume.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, so we get the fights going on. I don't yeah. We're uh watching the main fight to uh the Anthony Joshua Jake Paul Carpenter. Too bad we're not streaming this live. I'm gonna be the guy that says loud noises!
SPEAKER_05:Loud noises!
SPEAKER_02:Ew, I'd love lamp. I love carpet. Oh, look at I've never been to a big fight like this. I don't know what it's like, but I'd be interested to go. I'd rather do that than go to Venezuela. No, you you have to go to Venezuela before you can say that. But you know Have you been to Costa Rica? I do like that they get pretty girls to sing the national anthem. It makes me feel American. Makes me feel like I should eat an hamburger right now. She's not bad. She's um I'd give her an eight, nine. You're generous. You're very generous. Eight or nine? Come on. Okay. I'll give her eight. I'm going eight. Seven, eight. We're going down. We're on it. You're being on the. I keep I keep on looking up. Because they did a close-up shot there. But you know, maybe she's nervous. He's in front of a lot of people. True. You know what I mean? But um, okay, so who's fighting tonight?
SPEAKER_04:So uh we we've already gone through the mo the main card, uh most of the card. Uh I was looking over results, and apparently Anderson Silva knocked out Tyron Woodley earlier in the evening.
SPEAKER_02:Right now we Anderson Silva fought tonight. He fought tonight and knocked the dude out. Yeah. No.
SPEAKER_04:Knocked out a really good guy.
SPEAKER_02:No. Yeah. I wish I would have known that some. We can watch it after this is done. Tail and tape. I mean, we could go back if you want. Oh, Jake Paul, the YouTuber. Yeah. No, the YouTuber. Yeah, he's gonna get knocked out, I think. Okay, so this Yo Doo tuber. Jake Paul. Um, you know, he does good stuff too. He uses money to like, you know. It's from philanthropy. Yeah. He does he does philanthropy and all that. And he's sensational, and that's fine. He's sensational. That's part of the game, YouTube, and all that. Yeah, I think Logan is a little more on the sensational side, but they do use their money for they they they do and good for them for being for doing good a lot of good philosoph phil philanthropy. But he has a uh a guy that does hypnosis that works on him. Like Tyson did. Yeah, the Jake Paul to like build him up and yeah, yeah, yeah. Get get him Mark Mezzel or something like that. Headstrong. And I think to take you on. Yeah, so I think I think it's Jake. I mean, I could be wrong. Maybe it's who's the guy that fought Tyson?
SPEAKER_04:Uh it was this guy, it was Jake.
SPEAKER_02:Okay.
SPEAKER_04:So apparently that was an exhibition fight. So look, this kid is no joke.
SPEAKER_02:And so it's boxing, it's not MMA. Right. Or is it MMA? Is it an MMA? There's a been a full boxing card. Oh, okay, okay. So um, I follow the the guy that hypnosis that does the work on him that you're gonna keep going. Like his stuff is pretty cool to see, Mark Mesel or something like that. Like that guy, even just like when he talks to like motivational about being successful and all that, like you get jammed, you get you get you get energized hearing it. Get jacked up, you get jacked up on it. And I anybody that has a positive message like that, I'm all for because there's never enough you can never hear enough positive messages to get out there and go go kick ass. You know? Yeah, I mean every little bit helps. Yo, I'll get the body right, get the brain right, why not? Although I've I've been I've been watching all the videos of how to hypnotize people. I want to learn how to do that. Interesting. Oh, yeah. Artie. Bam. Maybe it'll be my guinea pig. Maybe you'll let me try you will let me try to hypnotize you. Alright, but you gotta don't do anything crazy. I'm not gonna make you a chicken running around nude outside. No Epstein shit. I was like, Artie, when you when you wake up up, you're gonna feel like your flip your clothes is on fire, and the only way for you to put your clothes out is running up and down the street. Ah Out comes Eric and kicks my ass. Oh my god. Did you ever watch the Cinderella story about the that boxing fight, that um the Cinderella man?
SPEAKER_01:Oh yeah, freaking Russell Crowe.
SPEAKER_02:Great, man. So good. Great, man.
SPEAKER_01:So good.
SPEAKER_02:Love that. Braddock. And true story, dude. He's a beast. Dude, such a bulldog. Such a story. We're gonna fight some blokes today. Okay. All right. True. Oh, true, true. Like legit question right now. Yeah, text to me. First of all, do you like my booms I got for the mics? I'm really digging them.
SPEAKER_04:Are you digging them? Uh I like how solid they are. I can swivel them a little more without being concerned that it's gonna fall down.
SPEAKER_02:No vibration or anything like that. Worried about the I need to get a new connection. I'm worried about the power. I hope it stabilizes right now. But anyway, three. Oh, we gotta plug that in, bro. It plugged in. Is it not charging? I guess not. I don't know, man. Where's it's over there? Maybe it's the little adapter. I don't know. I'm just I don't know. I don't which which line is it? It's I don't know. Yeah, we don't want this to die. I just don't know, Artie. Let's check it out. Yeah, I can't. Can uh time out why I figure out the the um the uh power. Power, yes, thank you. Yes, sir. And we're gonna figure this out real fast. I love wavy fucking I love wavy lanes.
SPEAKER_00:Wavy lanes are good.
SPEAKER_02:Oh my god.
SPEAKER_00:Okay, Jake Paul fighting.
SPEAKER_02:Okay.
SPEAKER_00:Are we back on?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, we're back on. Alright, we're back. We are back. We are live! Back, baby. Back, season two. We're gonna call this episode one, season two.
SPEAKER_04:Let's do it. I'm gonna stand a little bit if that's alright.
SPEAKER_02:No, that's quite alright. Much obliged. It's your world, you can do what you want. Okay, quick question. If I said I'd give you a thousand dollars, would you go get the professional boxer? Fighting? Not a thousand. The damage could be could be more costly than that. 10,000. Nope. What is Jake Paul making for this?
SPEAKER_00:Uh a few million, probably. Okay. Especially since a Netflix deal. He's making at least 10 million on this.
SPEAKER_02:Minimum 1 million. I said, Artie, you need to go in there for 1 million dollars and you have to make at least through one round. Just survive? Yeah. Yeah, I'm doing it. Well, who's the fighter? I don't know. Who's who's fighting right now? Jake Paul and Anthony Joshua. Okay, you're in there with Anthony Joshua. Wow, look at that. You're in there with Anthony um Joshua. And I said, you have to survive a full round at least to make a million dollars. And if you if you make it to round two, I'll give you two million dollars. You won't block and weave to try to make two million dollars. One million dollars for the first round, two million for two rounds. Can I run? Yeah, but what if he catches you? Trips you or something. Then I guess I'm out a million. What happen what do I get if I lose? What happens if I get knocked out before that round's over? We'll give you a consolation prize of like$500. No, I'm not doing that. Okay, consolation prize of like$500,000. No, that million needs to be a consolation. I gotta make sure that I can take care of my health. I mean, we're not gonna we're not gonna pay you just to go lay down and wow, he's really going a lot. Look at the shades everything. Hulkamaniac. Hulkamaniac. Oh yeah. Yeah. So okay. Consolation prize for stepping in the ring and trying to make it around to 500,000. No. But if you stand how long is it around? Three minutes?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Three minutes, you get a million dollars. But you have to try. What if I beat him? Then it's then it goes like it goes up significantly. It's like little like legit.
SPEAKER_04:I mean, there's no way that I would beat Anthony Joshua in a fight, but no. I I feel like the damage could be. Have you seen the worst case scenario of someone getting messed up in a boxing match?
SPEAKER_02:Um they turn into Gatti. Well, I know they get all swollen face and all that stuff, but like, what's the worst case scenario for boxing? Like, what could happen? What's the uh you're wearing diapers and someone's taking care of you the rest of your life? Okay, I got my phone here. We're gonna Google this. People die in the ring, bro. In boxing? Absolutely. More people have died boxing than an MMA. Okay. Um we're gonna ask we're gonna ask Google, just because we can. What's the worst that can happen to you in a boxing fight? Pro? Should I put pro? Pro. Okay. Did you mean what's the worst? Oh, I'm sorry if I didn't spell right, Google. Jeez, didn't realize what my grammar teached. Or no. Okay. The worst outcomes in a professional boxing fight involves, are you ready? Severe physical and neurological trauma, with the most extreme consequences being death. It's only death. Um, the the most dangerous injuries include, okay. Did you not see Rocky III? Brain Okay, you get four you could have brain injury, obviously, concussions, um, and in intracranial hemorrhage. I mean, we all get that once in a while. Um, spinal cord injury, I'm assuming if you fall wrong. I mean, death, but you know, you're gonna get there anyway. He dies, he dies. Yeah, how's he saying? If he dies, he dies. I will break you. Um, other serious, though less, though less fatal injuries include broken blow bones like a jaw, rib, or hand, severe facial laceration. So you get a couple cuts to the face, require requiring excessive reconstructive surgery, detached retinas, permanent vision impairment. Okay, look at Mickey Rourke, bro. It did not end well for him. No, I mean that's why his face looks like that. It's from boxing. He was an actor, it got famous, started boxing. Really? Got messed up. Look at Jake. So is Jake Paul trying to like make a career out of this? What do you think? Like, I didn't really he's really tatted up, too.
SPEAKER_00:First round, you're just filling each other out, seeing what the distance looks like. Dude, he's significantly bigger than him.
SPEAKER_02:He is significantly bigger. But look at him. He actually Jake Paul, he must be training. Yeah, he actually looks like a boxer. The way he's moving, the way he's his stance. He he Oh, wow. That was a good hit.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, if he keeps moving like this, he's gonna gas out. Especially since he's so like they said they weigh the same, but he's like bottom heavy. You know what I mean? He's a little stocky.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:And Joshua seems to be a little more conservative.
SPEAKER_04:Well, they went down. They went to the ground.
SPEAKER_02:Well, Jake Paul's not a professional. Let him be. I mean so these are probably super not healthy for you, but Lay's wavy chips, there's something legit about them. They're so good. They're gluten-free. And I like the rippled ones. The rippled ones are like legit. No, Jake, Jake, Paul, he's carrying himself pretty well, though. I mean, he's slowing down the fight by doing what he's doing, but he actually looks like a fighter out there. Look at him. He he doesn't look bad. Now, granted, the other guy, Joshua, very controlled, very smooth, not burning a lot of energy. Why is he not throwing? Hmm.
SPEAKER_04:Joshua's not throwing the way he would normally.
SPEAKER_02:Really? I I don't know how he fights, but I don't surprisingly, I don't watch a lot of boxing. It's never been my jam. Do you watch a lot of boxing? Uh no, more MMA. Yeah, see, I'm the same way. I love the excitement of MMA when they actually throw down and they don't dance around.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, you got some jujitsu in there.
SPEAKER_02:It's just exciting. So is that his brother there, that guy that looks like him on the side that has like the crossed tips there on the ground in the black shirt? Oh, let's see.
SPEAKER_04:It kind of looks like him. That is his brother, Logan. He's coaching him through it.
SPEAKER_02:Oh wow, they even do sponsorships on the ropes. Look at that. The top lot rope is KFC, the second one's credit one, and they really cash out everything they can put names on. Oh, okay. Okay. Jake Paul fought boxing fight, second boxing fight. No, this is like his fifth or sixth fight. Is it more for publicity for getting YouTube views, or is it like something legit?
SPEAKER_04:I think he's trying to be a legit fighter, but it's kind of hard to call him one considering the way that Mike Tyson fight went. It was very tap-tap. It was more like sparring.
SPEAKER_02:Well, okay, and then like Joshua, the boxer Joshua, Trout, and Mike Tyson, these people, they've been fighting their whole lives. Yeah. This is not like something they just picked up one day.
SPEAKER_04:They've no, yeah, like also life trained since he was a child.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, like when he was young. Cardio, bike riding, running everywhere, just for just to get a little bit more cardio. So I don't know. I mean, how old is how how old is um Paul? I think he's 28. Is he? What's his name? It's um Jake. Jake. Okay, Jake Paul, age. Stats. I don't know. Age. I'm gonna put age in stats. So uh we're watching the Netflix fight. Jake Paul and Joshua. I don't know what Joshua's first name is. Anthony. Anthony, Anthony Joshua. Joshua looks good. He's like really smooth. Look at him. He just You can tell he's reading him. Very in control. Very just like, and look at that. He just he just whips out a bomb. Like he just you can tell he's in such control right now of his movement. Okay, so um as of December 2025, Jake Paul is 28 years old, born January 17th, 1997, standing 6'1. Wow, he's tall, with a 76 arm, 76-inch reach, um, an orthodox stance and a pro professional boxing record of 12 wins and one loss. Way more than six with seven knockouts and a 58 KO rate. You can tell the difference. Yeah, you can tell the difference. Oh, he knocked him down!
SPEAKER_00:Six.
SPEAKER_02:Let's see if they show the replay. Did Joshua give him a good ringer?
SPEAKER_00:Fight's over.
SPEAKER_02:Dude, but he's gassed. Yeah, he's he's gassed.
SPEAKER_00:Fucked up. That was an exhibition he got fucked up.
SPEAKER_02:Dude, he's gassed. But God, you can you can tell instantly. You can tell instantly the difference between like a professional and homeboy just walking in.
SPEAKER_04:And a YouTuber.
SPEAKER_02:Look at him. Joshua's done. He's not scratched, he doesn't have a strawberry. He looks like he's just chilly. He looks like he just got done trading.
SPEAKER_04:He busted that dude's lip open.
SPEAKER_02:Let's see if they show a replay. Who's that right there? That actress. Looks like she's famous. Who's never seen her? Do you recognize any of those faces? No. Yeah, his lip is his list of his butt- his lip is busted. Wow. I wonder he got how much he got for that. I hope they made it worth his while. I'm sure they did. Enough for them to want to do a uh rematch. What's that? Joshua, Team Joshua? Yeah. I'm gonna make Team Mark shirts. Team Mark, and I'm gonna make a picture of me riding a unicorn. Team Castle. Alright. Like I was saying, I I don't think anybody can walk into a ring with anybody professional, not like that. Joshua, he broke his sweat, but wow. I know the the what do they call those girls? The ring girl. Wow. Ring card girl. Nice. Hey, yeah, gorgeous. Thank you. Thank you, sir, who's running the boxing fight. Thank you. He's still sweating his ass off. He he gassed fast. Yeah. He was gassed early on. When he was dying, he was taking the dives, going for the legs and all that. He was that first round, he was just like hopping around, hopping around. He was hopping around.
SPEAKER_04:His cardio is not there.
SPEAKER_02:But Joshua, look at he's sweating, but dude, he's not even like dying. He's not breathing hard. Look at him. He's just like, he's like, hey, it was cool. Thanks, guys. But I I give props for Paul for stepping into a fight. And you know, some of those hits that landed, they they had to hurt. Yeah. Yeah. So you wouldn't do it. Absolutely not. Not even for like a million dollars. Not for like an exposition like that, a million dollars. No. Do you recognize any faces there? Uh no. I don't either.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know. A bunch of young folks.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. Bunch of kids. Bunch of kids. Children. YouTubers. Okay, here's a reruns. Okay, those aren't big hits.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, he was trying to jab his way out there.
SPEAKER_02:And look at the way Joshua just held him back. Dude, Joshua just held back. He didn't really. Okay, look at he took a dive. He's gassed. He's not an athlete. Okay, look at. Oh! What was that? He didn't even jab. He stopped right in front of his face. I'm telling you, this is this is rigged. Okay, that one might have stung a little bit right there. But there's no way you could if Joshua went full if that one hurt. That one across look at that. Across the face. He's like, oh crap. He seemed to be surprised. Like, I'm not supposed to get hit like that.
SPEAKER_03:Look at it, right?
SPEAKER_02:Bam! Across the face on the chin. Dude, it's a fight. It's you're gonna get hit. Sorry. Look at that. Joshua. Oh. I don't know. It is what it is. Look at it.
SPEAKER_03:It's just it is what it is.
SPEAKER_02:That felt like a sparring match on one side. You know, Jake's gonna make a lot of money off of this. He's gonna get more viewers, people on YouTube, and whatever. And uh Joshua just it just shows how good Joshua, like professional fighters are. He wasn't even trying. Like, did you see that one hit on the replay where his the fist stopped right in front of his face? Yes. I that's a weird look. Dude, that's weird, dude. And then when he actually connected that one and that one like his face was like he was on the ground, he was like, What the f what the hell, dude? You just like I'm not supposed to get hit like that. Dude, you just you just kick my ass. What the hell's your problem? Don't kick my ass. Um, yeah, okay. He gets paid, he gets paid for walking into a ring with a um don't kick his ass, he's gonna kick my ass. Um good for you, dude. I mean that's cool. Like if if somebody said like you'll make some money from what's this movie here? There's a preview here. 28 years later, is that ain't good? So I haven't seen the first one. This is a spin-off of that really fourth 28 movie. I do like the um because what's the original movie on this? 28 Days Later. Yeah, the guy wakes up in the hospital. Yeah, that's great. I like the idea that they're still like 28 years later, you still have to contend with zombies. That's very realistic, but um, I haven't seen this. I didn't see the last one even. Did you see 28 weeks later? Yeah, is that good?
SPEAKER_04:I haven't seen that one.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I've seen the first one. Yeah, where they're like getting together and they're finally like nuking, like not nuking, but like they're actually fighting the zombies and all that. Oh shit, yeah, I gotta watch. Oh. Okay, well, we watched a Jake Paul fight. Yeah. Are we back? No, yeah, that was not a real fight. Oh, we've been recording. We've been on. Okay, cool. I was like, surprise! Surprise. I don't know if you noticed, but I got um Bigfoot. Yeah, I see your Sam Squench. Dude, okay. Bigfoot. Okay, so we're talking about modern events. We talked about, yeah, mainly modern events, and and I think whenever we get on here, we always start about with modern current events. That's kind of our MO. Yeah, we kind of missed something from today. We we caused a fight too. Good idea, man. I like that. Okay. Um, Syria. Did you hear about Syria today? No, I happened to Syria. Well, I know the Americans died of the did we bomb them? We did.
SPEAKER_04:We we retaliated against ISIS because of those guys that got killed last Saturday. And we they're saying, so the military of the US government have made a statement that this isn't, we're not going to war. This is just an a retaliation. A retaliation.
SPEAKER_02:I'm look at um I'm not opposed to it. You know, you they they killed some Americans, there's ISIS out there. Yeah, we have a base out there. Why do we have a base out there? Who knows? Are we what who knows what we're protecting? But We do send young men out there and they're unharmed away. Okay, I get it. Um, but uh um but send the message that look, if we got guys out there, you know, leave us alone. If you don't leave us alone, we're gonna kill you. Yeah, I mean you know, and what's kind of weird is we Trump wiped out ISIS, right? So this is uh second um iteration. No, he didn't really wipe out ISIS. I mean, you're if you're talking about the pull-off from Afghanistan, he had an agreement to leave Afghanistan. Um ISIS never really was wiped out, so to speak, so to say. But he claimed that they weren't. Yeah, in and and in uh ISIS-I I don't I don't mean I don't think Trump's politics are bad. I mean, he has pros and cons, but um he does have a way of hyping it up, like we wiped him out, I killed him, I killed them all, and then you have this cell in there. Right now, granted, ISIS is a bunch of small cells everywhere. Can you truly wipe them out? Probably not. Do you know what I mean? Um, as I think Trump's been holding his tongue more than he did his first term. His first term, he was just saying all sorts of stuff. I think he's been a little bit better on this and this time around. I would say the opposite. I would say he held back the first term and now it's just been. I think he was out of control. It's a blazing now. I think he lost the election because he it bit him in the ass and everything he said in the first term. Oh, it was January 6th. But I think the second term he came in re I think the term first term was good, but I think I think uh that's not what I meant to say. I think the first term was good in terms of getting experience. So when he came into office the second term, he was ready with a plan and agenda. You know what I mean? He came in, knew what he needed to do, didn't waste any time, got in there and getting stuff done. Um, I in my opinion, I think he's holding his tongue more because I think in his first term he said a lot more outlandish stuff. I'm the best, we're always the best, we've been the best. I killed everybody, killed ISIS, killed Chenese, killed everybody. I made water. And he still says stuff, but not I I I mean, in my opinion, not like he did the first time.
SPEAKER_04:I feel it's like the first term on steroids.
SPEAKER_02:I didn't this we're 11 months in, and it feels like his first two years have gone by. Um, I think he's got a lot more done. Um there's pros I have pros and cons about it either way. What are some cons? I have mixed emotions about immigration. Um, do we need immigration control? Yes. Is it the best way to go about it? I don't know. I mean, should it be like Biden era where you just let everybody in? No. Do we have real problems here? Yes. Now, should we is invading is doing raids, big time raids in big cities the the right way of going about it?
SPEAKER_03:I don't know.
SPEAKER_02:Um, I do have friends that are immigration guys, and they tell me the the difference in the amount of immigrants from that apprehended changed overnight. Um so it goes both ways. Um I opposed to the Iraq the Iran thing now. Am I opposed to like Venezuela and Mexico? Not even a little bit. Him holding his line in terms of health care and him holding his line in terms of benefits to the military and all that, good too. I mean military the military was they announced today that they're issuing them um essentially like bonus checks. Good for them. Now Congress should Congress should be involved in an enact policy to make that payment, and they but the law changed during the Obama administration where the government can just make payments without government Congress approval, okay, fine. Well, at least you're cutting checks to them and these people that are in the military that probably are underpaid for what they go through, good for them. You know what I mean? Um I don't fully understand the big beautiful bill. I haven't I've tried to look up like um the cliff notes on it, and I couldn't find it, and maybe there'll be more on that coming out. Um Elon Musk coming in and doing what he did. Yeah, I was a fan of that. I I was. I think it's about time, and I think there needs to be more of that. Um, you know. Have you looked into Project 2028 at all? Yeah, I I've twenty Project 2028's not new, but I think that's more radical right people trying to um get Trump to buy into it completely, which their Project 2028 was pretty extreme, but because it seems like a lot of that has been enacted, right? No, I don't think a lot of it has been enacted, but what do I know? Like that's the only thing I can say. What do I know? Do you know? Um in the way the way laws are written, I think it's not easy for somebody that's not a part of the system to understand. Do you know what I mean? I I don't I don't understand how legislative gets um legislation gets passed and they add on a lot of pork. You know what they mean by pork? You add on a lot of little stuff onto it. Yeah. So I don't understand how they add on so much pork onto legislation that senators or congressmen can get for their districts on a bill that has nothing to do with their district. You know what I mean? So I'm not a fan of that kind of stuff. Um it's been a while since I've looked at Project 2020. I remember during the election, it was kind of a big thing. Um, like, oh, he's he's a big uh proponent of Project 2028. But um I don't, I mean, like I say, I don't keep up with it enough right now to know to be able to say like yes he is or no he's not, but it doesn't seem like it because Project 2028 seemed very, very right wing. You know? Um but I don't know. I I think he's seems extreme, right? It does. And and and it's been a while since I looked at it, so I'd have to pull it up.
SPEAKER_04:So as far as cons in regard to immigration, I do agree that we need to have a vetting process, don't just open everything up. We we I want to know, like we should be able to know, even with you know, like family members of mine. I'd like to know like what the plan is. Like, are you gonna come over here? Like, what type of work are you planning on doing? What are your goals? And my issue with it is that like what Homeland Security is doing is they're not going after criminals or you know, drug peddlers. It's people who are showing up to court, people who are going to work.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. And um, and you know, you know what sucks about that is um a lot of the same policies now are the same policies that were factored in the last POTIS, the last president, and the POTUS before that, but the president before that. So a lot of the policies have not changed. It's just the way they're enforced. And a lot of tactics are different for sure. They well, yeah, and and I and I think it's up to each president to how they implement the current policy they have, but nobody has said this is the way we're gonna fix it. Okay, immigration, vetting, um, visas takes like three, four years. Nobody's come up with a better way of doing it. It already costs a buttload of money for somebody that doesn't make any money. How do you feel we handled immigrants when they were coming through Ellis Island? Well, Ellis Island, well, okay, so obviously technology was different. But I don't know. I mean, I don't know if like something like ISIL existed. Is there was any like relative comparison to like ISIL ISIS back then versus now? Right? Think about it. Right, there weren't terrorists. Like now back in Ellis Island days, you stood in front of somebody, where you're from, what's your last name? McGee, it's Smith. Go through. You have you have a disease, you have lice, no, go through. And now it's like you apply, you do biometrics, you are our system cross-references in in your system from your country. Did this guy commit murder? Are they a drug peddler? No? Okay, then we'll consider them. Go ahead and pass them through. Do you know what I mean? So there's I think technology, there's pros and cons with technology because now you can see their criminal record from another country, but it also slows it down at the same time. Even though it makes it easier to fight it, it slows it down too at the same time. You know? Um, because yeah, you think you look at those videos of Ellis Island, you stand in front of the guy, what's your last name? Mick, what? No, no, no, you're Smith. Go through. Have a good day.
SPEAKER_04:The Godfather.
SPEAKER_02:Like stuff like that. Yeah. It's like, this one's coffee, he's got TV. Put him in quarantine for two weeks. If he lives, he goes through. Do you know what I mean? Like, and now it's like um paperwork, background checks, X, Y, and D, Z, Z, these boxes, you pay the two, three thousand dollars, which if you're from a third world country, it takes you year to get. Do you know what I mean? So, I mean, it seems like it's it's a good thing now, but look at right here. BAAH!
SPEAKER_00:That's the one that spent him.
SPEAKER_02:That's the one where he, yeah, he does he does this thing, the guy flies into the corner, and then that right across the face, right on the chin. It was nice to see. Um, okay, just to put an end to this, the Jake, Jake Paul, and Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua. You could tell this was nothing for Joshua. It was he held his punches, he was better, he was sweating, but he wasn't bleeding. Like you could tell he wasn't trying like hard.
SPEAKER_04:No, I've seen other fights where like when Andy Ruiz knocked him out, he's fighting his ass.
SPEAKER_02:Jake Paul is gassed. He keeps falling, and then that one hit right there where Joshua gives it a little bit of gas across the lines of the Jin. When Jake Paul's on the face, you saw the face, he was like, Oh shit, you hit me. Yeah, wow.
SPEAKER_04:He he even said, Oh, wow.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. So, uh, you know, they'll make money. Hopefully, they use it for good you for good use. So, immigration, I don't know, man. It's I I just there's good people that come to America. America's got to keep growing. You've got to keep the working class here. You've got to let people come in and replace the retiring workers. Hopefully, their children go to school. If anything, revamping our education system so that people that are here get a better education so that they go to more technical fields and advance our sciences and advances um our technology versus people just coming here and going to the service industry. You know what I mean? That's what I think. Okay, so so okay, fight's over. Um, yeah, so we talked about a lot of current events.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Bigfoot. What about him? Okay, so I got a Bigfoot statue. Dun dun dun. Hold on, okay. Oh no, I'm not using the mouse for that one. Artie? Yeah. Which cameras do I have up? Hold on. Uh just a big one. Oh, I knocked this one over. I'm sorry, that's a rookie move. Is it? It's is it even on it? Did you knock one out? No, when I went through, I turned I moved it. There you go. That was a rookie move. You know, Artie? Hold on. I'm gonna switch cameras here. This is on you. Artie, I added Bigfoot to the table here. It's a very glorious Bigfoot. It's hairy. He's got the over big arms and the big foot. You wanna hold that up? Like, we have a legit Bigfoot here, and he means business. It looks like Artie on the day he hasn't shaved. Only thing that's missing is a big wing swinging around.
unknown:Dude.
SPEAKER_02:You know, just because we get just because we get silly, my question for you, sir, is this it takes the nastiest shit. So, okay, Bigfoot.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Funny that you say that. If there, if there is a Bigfoot, I'm not saying there is, or I'm not saying there's not. But if there is a Bigfoot, do you think there are big craps laying around the floor from a Bigfoot? And do you think Bigfoot has a big schlong just I've never- I mean, I've I'm not being stupid. Like if you look at a horse with a horse peas, have you ever been near a horse with a peas? I've seen peas and it peas. Gallons, yeah. And it was like, like, dude, are you gonna stop? Are you are you gonna be dehydrated here? Do I need to get water for you, sir? Do you think Bigfoot's any different in that sense? And it sounds stupid, but like it was real he'd probably know, and if it was real and wanted to hide, he'd probably know well enough to shit in the river. It's because people that allegedly have seen Bigfoot before they see him, they smell him. That's why in Florida they call it skunk ape. Because he smells so bad. It smells like death. Maybe he doesn't like it's not like he's out there. I'm gonna go take a shower. Can I get the bar of self? Can I get the old spice? Do you know what I mean? Yeah. So people always say, like, you smell it first, and something, once you get that whiff of it, it's like something's wrong. So I've never heard of that. So that's one of the things about Bigfoot is um there's like a couple of things about it, but you smell an aroma that's like death. And if you think about it, if you're an animal in the wild and you like a human-ish, where your hair just grows and you just don't shed fur and you get your hair just keeps growing. And if it's filthy, it keeps growing you irregardless. And if you go to the bathroom and you don't have TP, it's like, I'm gonna go just make a make a little teddy bear here. You probably got massive dingleberries. Like, it's funny to say, but it's true, right? Right. So just think about that. How do you think that was fill? How have you ever gone like a day or two or three without uh showering? I have. I mean, I mean I'm notoriously known. All right, I'm out of work, it's five o'clock Friday. I'm gonna have a drink, and I'm not gonna shower until I have to go to work Monday morning.
SPEAKER_04:Damn. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, and and there's sometimes I'm not doing a lot, it's like, I'm fine. Yeah, a little, little, I'm like a high schooler, get axe break, shh. And other times it's like, dude, I've been working outside all day. I smell like death. So an animal that lives in a wild Bigfoot that has hair that grows, you can imagine probably the aroma from it is not nice. Whatever you're eating, you got your vegetables hanging in your hair, and you have do you know what I mean? Yeah. Um I don't think it's real. So I don't have I cannot form an opinion either way. Why? Because if you take a scientific approach, you have to be able to touch it, feel it. Go like if I see you, if I if I see you here today, I should be able to come back and see you here tomorrow. Like, there's it's the repeatability to prove the hypothesis something's here. I've never seen it, I've never been out in the deep forest. So so you haven't, but there are people that have. Allegedly, allegedly. Okay, so I was oh man, I wish I could. I don't even think I had the search on it up anymore. I'd have to switch it up. Um there I okay, so I listened to a guy named David Pilades, and I always tell everybody about him because he's super where's my glasses? I'm all I feel like an old man. Where's son, Sonny? Where's my glasses? Where's my eyes? Where's my eyes? So um um Buddy Rich, Buddy Rich played. I I listened to a lot of stuff this week. I was listening to jazz, yeah. I was listening to good stuff, the departed like um the no, I was looking for the movie, like the departed trailer.
SPEAKER_03:Such a good movie, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I was um let me.
SPEAKER_04:My girlfriend drinks cranberry juice. It helps her with her, period. You remember that?
SPEAKER_02:And then DiCaprio smashes him with the glass. I'm sorry, I missed that one. Um have you seen The Departed? No, I I that was on my I I watched clips and I watched the trailer that I'm like, I actually got interested. Um, hold on. Let me see. One of Scorsese's best, man. Oh, I think I think it was too early in the week. Um let's watch the departed. Let me see here. Um, oh no, here it is. So so I'm so I I I I I listened to David Pilates, and David Pilates is interesting because David Pilates, he's a modern day gentleman. He was a the police department investigator. He worked HR in his whole life, and so his resume tells me he's methodical and he's careful about what he does. Um, he's written a number of books, and the way he writes his books is he presents facts to you, but he doesn't lead you to the conclusion. He's not gonna say, and therefore a bigfoot exists. He just tells you, this is what we've found, this is what we've tested, this is the this situation and that situation. So I I like to listen to his his um his radio interviews, I like to watch his videos. I've read his books, I have a couple of his books. Super interesting, David Pilite's in, and if you're interested, he writes a book called Missing 411 about people that turn up missing in the national park. I talk about him all the time. That he presents the facts of how they turn up missing, but he doesn't tell you what happened to like how they turn like what his he doesn't give you his personal thought, it's very objective, not subjective. And you almost want to say, like, you almost want to ask him, like, I know you have an idea of what's going on here, but he says, This is this case, this is what happened, these are the circumstances, these are similarities to other cases that exist, and he's really good at that. So he has quite the resume on investigating like Bigfoot. So when we're going when I was going through this, uh there's a um he references somebody called Rod Sterling. Rod Sterling?
SPEAKER_04:I want Why do I know that?
SPEAKER_02:Rob Rod Serling. So Rob Serling um was a guy from the 70s, and he did he voiced over and narrated a lot of documentaries from the 70s. So 70s to the 80s. First ten accounts, yeah. What videos existed back then, and some of his videos were on Bigfoot. And so this this just happened this week. Like this, I I just was watching the videos this week. And so I came up with this idea, and like came out on this, like this is just so you and I we've never seen Bigfoot for all intent purposes, he does exist. But what does exist is there's a history of Bigfoot. That goes back at least a century and a half. And then with the advent of video cameras, video cameras that people could take, probably the first ones in the 70s and 80s. Oh, I remember the 80s to 90s, the ones on your shoulder. And who knows what the 70s. I think the 70s probably had those ones that you kind of, you know, you wound up. So there does exist evidence from the 70s, at least to the 80s, where people say, no, though, this is a bad film, but this is Big Fight. So there is a there is a consistent timeline that kind of has a consistent thread to it that hasn't gone away. This narrative that hasn't gone away, and the stories are all the same, the places are all the same, the circumstances are the same. And we're you're talking 30, 40, you're talking 50 years now, and that's just modern time from the time when we were our parents thought about doing it and having us. And now and then you add on to the top the idea that you talk about miners from the 1800s and newsreels or newspaper clippings that say like these miners were attacked by the wild man that was six foot tall, that was hairy, and from the 1800s from gold diggers. Now, they could be sensationalized, too, sensationalized, who knows, but there is a kind of a consistency of the stories. Take it for what it's worth. There is, like I say, there is a certain consistency and pattern that just is not debunked and hasn't gone away. Some stories have been done debunked. Obviously, this guy was dressed as innate being an idiot. But then you have other stuff like this one is not an idiot, and then you have other stuff where like they David Pilates was investigated a lot. Well, we went to an independent researcher who finally agreed to um um to uh um do a DNA analysis on the hair samples we gave them, and there's no known DNA match in the genome that we have. The collection of all the animal databases, there's no known match, but yet people want to say it doesn't exist, but we sent these in to get tested. So there is like a common thread that doesn't go away. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. So in a um in the scientific theory, you have to repeat, make a hypothesis, repeat it, and be able to repeat it to prove the existence of it. But in bit the sense of Bigfoot, there's a hypothesis, and there hasn't been anything, there's there hasn't been anything to prove that it doesn't exist. And as time goes on, the story and the videos and the pictures continue to appear. So are you telling me there's like that many people hoaxing it, or is there the thread of a possibility that maybe there is something about this that maybe we don't know?
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, because I see a lot of in my lifetime, I've seen a lot of evidence of what could potentially be UFOs or UAPs. You don't see that much about Bigfoot.
SPEAKER_02:So, okay, I have a thing about UFOs and UAPs too, and we can get into that in a second. Um, first of all, I'm gonna say one thing already for the viewers listening to us that think we're a couple of idiots and we don't know what's going on. I'm saying Bigfoot Research Road Trip 2026. What where? I don't know, but it's gonna be in the forest where there's been alleged sightings and a shotgun for our security. That's all I'm gonna say. Maybe two shotguns.
SPEAKER_00:If he's real a shotgun, he's gonna laugh.
SPEAKER_02:An elephant gun. 306, like, you know what I mean? And like sleeping in the truck, not sleeping out in the tent. Like, if like if we said, Artie, we're gonna go investigate this area. There's been a hundred Bigfoot sightings out here. I'm not gonna sleep outside in a tent that's covered with a piece of thin nylon. I'm gonna lock my truck, I'm gonna double lock my truck, I'm gonna sleep with my in my truck with like a flashlight light and a shotgun. Like, I'm gonna be like, um, who's that guy, the Australian guy? I'm out in the Montana Forest searching for Bigfoot. And if you notice Steve Irwin? Yeah, I'm gonna totally Steve Irvin Irwin it outside of my truck or inside of my truck looking out. I mean, I guess. Why not? It would be fun. I thought we have drinks, it would be fun and per that 1.1% chance that did you hear that? Or what was that, dude? Yeah, it could be fun. It would to me it would make it worthwhile, it would be something out of the ordinary.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I might that that's fun.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I would I would be down for that. Now, in terms of like UAPs and UFOs and all that, and and I mean, I always tell people I've seen lights in the sky. Yeah, I've seen some really strange lights in the sky. Yeah, we live in a in a state that's big sky, clear nights, beautiful. I've seen some pretty weird stuff out there, and I had no clue what it was. Was it a UFO? I don't some of them are pretty weird. But here's the thing though. If you take your cell phone with you, your cell phone is not made to take a video of something that's 20,000 feet above you moving at 100 miles per hour, like a thousand miles per second. Like, so people are like, Why did you get a good video of it? Well, you only have a cell phone, you have to get special cameras with special lenses. Like a cell phone is not gonna zoom in on something 50.
SPEAKER_04:Bless you.
SPEAKER_02:Thank you. A cell phone's not gonna zoom in on something even a mile away, that's good. It's they're not made for, it's made for like, hey, Artie, let me take your picture, let me get your picture of you right here. You know what I mean? So I get that the video pictures and the and the recordings and all that aren't good because cell phones aren't made for that kind of distance, you know? So I get that. Um, and then I also I've really come to terms with um this. When you look at lights in the sky, and I spent an enormous time outside with binoculars. I have really big um binoculars that have the ability to like give you really good um focal clarity at distance. Not the little ones you get at Walmart that are that big, and like I got my binoculars, and I'm gonna see what the neighbors do. No, I I've got some that are like really big that give you that has a folk a focal capacity that is not normal, they're really expensive to try to see like further. But even those aren't made for like five miles up in the sky. So, so in the times I've sat outside, just really intent, like I'm gonna see something in the night. And um, I see a light from a distance, and I was like, dude, that is totally random. It's one in the morning, it's a bright light, and it's like and it might move this way, and it might move this way, and if you look at it long enough, eventually you see the signal light. So it might be the red one, the blue, the green one for starboard, you know, it's it's so far away, you have no way to say like it's not a helicopter, it's not a drone, it's not even you have no way of saying it's not like a plane that's amazing capacity, capability. Like the distance to the to what you're looking at versus the light and the speed, it it's hard to say. And unless it's like a UFO, a disc landing in my street, that you can be like, all right, Mofo, that's a UFO. It's I get where a lot of people see weird stuff, stuff and they're not sure what it is. Well, it's so far away, you're not gonna know what it is, and just because it's the light doesn't mean they're UFOs. Do you know do you know what I mean? Like military has some really cool jets and really good planes and even helicopters that have amazing capabilities. And when you see the light at night, that light moving fast and moving, it can look like a UFO. But I have I have seen that one in ten kind of thing that's like that is if that's military, holy crap. I will say that. I've I've seen a couple things in the night sky that's like there's no way in hell that's a that's like a like a terrestrial craft, but that's the one in ten thing, and and I've spent a lot of time driving on the road over the course of my life and jobs and all that. That if you spend enough time at night, you're gonna see something weird. Um, I have cameras that look at my sky, and um, it amazes me what I see. I see tons of meteorites, and in my opinion, they're meteorites. Meteorites explode in the atmosphere, ball of light, flash, and they fade away. Now I've seen like one of the incredible things I've seen, and I have the video of this somewhere, I'll have to look it up. Um, I have a camera facing north, and the whole horizon lights up like the sun rising, like a bomb, like the whole horizon turns like yellow and red and glows. And this is like at one in the morning, and then it just it just comes back down to a ball of light and it's gone. I I do have a couple of those things, but I have cameras looking up 24-7. Do you know what I mean? And when you get at night, you get some cool shit. Like I say, some of them are very obvious UFOs, some of them are planes, some of them are kind of weird. Some of I I have gotten a couple of weird videos. I I'm just not sure what it is. I I have a video of a transformer blowing up, the whole the whole that side of the horizon glowing blue-green. Kind of cool. Okay. Um, if you look up at the sky long enough, you're gonna see things. And um, they're not all UFOs, but the weird ones, I I don't I don't know how to explain them. I've seen triangular triangular shape things that are big flying in a very smooth, quiet way that was low to the ground, and it's like that is not terrestrial.
SPEAKER_04:Right.
SPEAKER_02:It's just if it were, I'd be amazed. I've seen that, but then I've seen the uh a light, like god, it's hovering for a long time, and then you see it come closer, you're like, oh my god, is it is that like a UFO? It's really bright, and then it kind of goes this way, and you're like, oh, I see the port side light, it's red, and then you see the tail lights, and they're like, oh, that's not it. Or uh um, I've seen the um oh, what's the other one I've seen? Venus and Jupiter. Like Venus on the right night is the brightest light, and it's weird when you're looking at a sky and there you see the brightest star out there, and you're like, dude, what is that? And you see it like it'd be with the open sky behind it, your mind does play tricks on you where you're like, is that moving? You know? Yeah, and you pull up the star maps and all that, and you're like, no, that is Venus, it's not anything else than Venus. So I have a mixed feeling about UFOs too. Like, do I think they exist? I think mathematically the numbers say they have to exist. Um, do I think I don't know. I just you know, it's just it's a weird thing. Bigfoot, it's a weird thing. People see things in the ocean. Well, the ocean's a big place and it's not fully explored, it could exist. I always think there's a room for possibility. Um and also with like ancient technology, people say, we had ancient technology. Do I think aliens came and taught us? No, but the earth is like how many millions of years old? Right, humanity is only like what two, three hundred thousand years old? Yeah, humanity can humanity could exist on the lifespan of Earth ten times over, and we would never know of each other. So, yeah, Bigfoot, it's possible. Have I seen it? No. Could it be a bunch of drunk guys dressed up as a grillet? Absolutely. We're idiots.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah. But I'm not gonna take away the possibility that it could be because that most famous one where he's looking back over the shoulder.
SPEAKER_02:The Gimlin.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, that looks fake as fuck.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. But then you see other ones that don't.
SPEAKER_04:I've never seen any other ones, though. Is there anything that you can pull up here to show me that looks kind of real?
SPEAKER_02:Um, okay, so let me let me see if I can pull that shit up, Jamie. I need the remote. It's right there. Um, I'll look up on Pilates because he's on a lot of um he David Pilates, he has like a lot of interviews and he's in a lot of documentaries, and people send him a lot of stuff. And um I just like his work. I think he's methodical. Um yeah, he just has some interesting stuff. And if and if that's your jam, check it out. That's all I gotta say. If that's your jam, check it out. Keep an open mind about it, and um, yeah, you know, um, so I'm gonna pull up YouTube and you somebody told me something last week. About what they made the comment of I saw it on the internet, and I was like, okay, so that made it, that means it's absolutely true. You know what I mean? Um, okay, so um Bigfoot David Polites. So he even comes up on the search because he's just so well researched. Um, let me see if I can find some of them. Um A Flash of Beauty, Bigfoot Revealed. Um let me see if I let me see if I can find something here. This is the one this is interview on Coast to Coast about the Coast to Coast. Yeah, like Coast to Coast is is pretty legit. You know, Coast to Coast has been on for a long time. Art Bell and all that. Let me see. Let me see if I can find the actual let me see if I can find one of the videos I was I was I was um watching. There's just so many of them. That's that's the problem. There's so many of them. How do you um how do you dad go from L to M? Oh freaking walking. I need to log into YouTube on here because um I um no I always subscribe to YouTube so I don't have to watch these quirky commercials. Hold on, how do I turn the volume down? What so this is the thing where they they try to they try to get evidence of DNA and all that and standing there in timber or again clearly. Oh, it's on my um there it was it's on my um there we go. It was on my um my Mac mini, that's why. So let me see if I can find something for you. Um, and and people for those of you listening, like uh um I don't know, like you can Google it and there's just um this is the here's the one you're talking about. It was um um Montana seems to be a big place for it. The Oregon, the Pacific, the Pacific Coast, the Huba Valley. He does a lot up there on that. So this is the one you're talking about.
SPEAKER_06:Yeah, that's it.
SPEAKER_02:He looks over his shoulder, and uh um what is that one called? Um that's David Pilite's there. This guy's interviewing him, and um, I don't know, like um have you ever flown over a country that's a all forest? Yeah, it's just like endless hills of green, and you have to wonder like, is it possible for something to live in there that we would never see because there's just so much green? You know what I mean? Okay, here's one right here. So this lady, this lady's um, she's talking about where she's hiking and she saw something. And okay, her thing is she said it just disappeared right in front of her. Um, let me see here. Let me see if I can find an actual video for you. Um you've seen the footprints, right?
SPEAKER_03:I'm trying to find you a video, dude. It's such a tough thing to do, because like, you know. Um it. Okay, I'm gonna try something up else here.
SPEAKER_02:You made it you made it a challenge, sir. Um, so anyway, that's how I feel about it. What about what about you while I'm searching this? What's your thoughts?
SPEAKER_01:Um I don't know, it's just the the volume of evidence that's out there is just kind of it's kind of wow.
SPEAKER_04:I don't know, it's just it's just feels so far-fetched to me that yeah, there are things in the sky that people see. Sure, some might be high up.
SPEAKER_02:Is it is it possible for you okay, in terms of Bigfoot, do you think it's possible for somebody that's for people to fake this for like 50 years? Enough people to fake it for 50 years to intentionally be like, we're gonna spoof you just to mess with you.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, there's trolls. There's there's been trolls for a long time.
SPEAKER_02:For 50 years worth of trolls, you think? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04:I think it's harder to try to.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, look at the dog stood up. Okay, so there's a video. The dog stood up. Okay, there's they're putting the the square around here. It's an old man on the porch in the forest.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, I wish he would sit down.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, we're gonna have to backtrack that a little bit to where the dog stood up. He hit is that a broom or is that an oar? Does he have an oar? Is he gonna hit Bigfoot with an oar? Okay, we're right before the dog stands up. Okay, it's in this area. Oh, do you see that right there?
SPEAKER_01:Yep.
SPEAKER_02:Um, this is a tough one because it's an it's like a dist, it's in a distance like your ring camera got the video, and it's just like really far away. That's a tough one to call. It's not really good enough for you to be like, that's Bigfoot.
SPEAKER_01:Could have been a bear.
SPEAKER_02:And okay, so that's some of the problems that some of these videos have, right?
SPEAKER_03:Oh, I owing. I this is why I hate from YouTube, they make it hard to zoom.
SPEAKER_02:Like, let me see. Let me see if I can zoom up here. Uh we're trying we're we're looking at a video of Bigfoot like in a forest, a guy sitting on the porch, and we're like, is this Bigfoot? And um I don't know, it's just I um that's the problem with YouTube though, too, right? Like it's just it's just hard to see. Oh, hold on, Bigfoot. Come on, Bigfoot, come on, Bigfoot! There's a word for Bigfoot in Spanish, too. And it's not just like patas grandes, but there is. Hold on, let me see if I can uh but there's actually a word for it. Okay, there it is. I see it. Let me see, let me zoom in. So we're trying to make Artie Believer. Uh see, like it's this is it right here, but it's too far away. And again, it's a ring camera. Ring camera's not made for distance. Right. How big is that yard there?
SPEAKER_04:Uh it's huge. It's a few acres.
SPEAKER_02:You have no idea what that is out there, and um, it's just it's not good. Like, sorry, but it's just it is what it is. I'm sorry, you know what I mean? Like, see, like if I showed you that to try to convince you, that would not be cool, right? But I think that's what we have a lot of people who have cell phones, and cell phones aren't made for a hundred-yard distance, 200 yards, and that's part of the problem. Yeah, do you know what I mean? So I don't know.
SPEAKER_04:I don't buy it. I mean, I don't know. The whole thing is because I do believe in UFOs because I've had I've had I've seen one thing. An old probes. No, it wasn't that it was something that was up close to the club.
SPEAKER_02:It's like Carbman from um South Park.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah!
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, that was episode one.
SPEAKER_04:Oh my god, yes. So the the encounter that my sister and I had, it was like 50 yards away from us. Yeah. So the it was a glowing orb, didn't make any noise, moved really slow, like actually was just sitting there, like kind of observing us until I said, because we were looking for hail bop when it was up and about.
SPEAKER_02:Oh wow, okay. So this back in 97. And you know what? I'm really thinking of investing into a 15-inch telescope. Because I have a 10-inch now. You can see like the moons of Jupiter and all that. That's a it's an eight-inch. I have a six and I have an eight, but uh, I think I'm gonna get me the 15-inch and really make the investment to get like really good videos.
SPEAKER_04:That'd be cool. Yeah, how would you so how would you video from it?
SPEAKER_02:You can buy attachments for the eyepiece.
SPEAKER_04:Damn, that's dope.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, like Bluetooth eyepieces that connect to your laptop and all that. Oh, let's do it. Yeah, I know, right? And they the collapsible. So, anyways, I'm sorry, go ahead.
SPEAKER_04:Uh, so yeah, I think I told this story in the first episode that we did, but that was just so compelling to me that it's like there's no quite well, what the fuck is that, dude? What is that?
SPEAKER_02:Full screen that shit, Jamie.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, that's a bear. That's like That's a bear.
SPEAKER_02:That looks like a bad edit with like um, like you know, Zoom, you change you, you could change your no, that's a um, oh that's a tiger cougar, a mountain lion. A cougar or something like that. A cruel lynx.
SPEAKER_00:Oh, that's pretty big.
SPEAKER_02:That's something that would eat your leg and be like, thank you, bro, for your leg, and you'd be like, You just ate my leg. Oh, oh, look at right here. Bo that's a bow hunter there. What are we looking at? So this right here, it's hard to tell, but that's a bow hunter.
SPEAKER_00:So he's just in there.
SPEAKER_02:What's this right here? Okay, that's still that's still the same cat walking. Okay, we're gonna get a zoomed up pic. Oh, here's another video. I can't see if that guy's still out there, but there's um there's a Bambi walking through the forest. It's a pretty little forest, and it's very peaceful. It's Bambi looks for food. And it's a very serene. Can you hear the birds singing already? No, it's muted. It'll tell you where people zoom in at. Um, there's kind of not really anything here. I'm not impressed by the video. Well, watch what we cut on the camera. You cut it, Bambi on the camera, Mofo. Go to that peak. You see that white peak on the timeline? There's hold on. Oh, yeah. See why people kept watching that. Right there, yeah. But that's where the cat walks. Everyone's like, oh, it was the cat. Like, okay. There's just nothing. No. See? Like, here's the beginning peak. This is a Bigfoot video. It's I don't know, it came on Bigfoot search. But again, it's it's it's just the injustice of like, dude, why would you like are you trying to be a troll and be like, oh my god, look what I found. You know what I mean? Like American Sasquatch, Myth, or oh, that's the David Pilates one. Oh, this one has mature content. Yes, I'm over 18. Oh, oh my. Cloudy? Oh my. Oh, oh, this is about peptides. S L U P P through 32. Cause I I I Yeah, I look a lot of peptides. Um, Bigfoot video. I don't know, like, but that's the thing with you with YouTube too. There's a lot a lot of crap on there. Stop putting crap on here, people.
SPEAKER_01:A dog video.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, I know. I'm tired of looking at people's cats. Um depends on the cat. Oh, come on.
SPEAKER_04:That's a guy.
SPEAKER_02:That's that's a the AI or something. There's no way that's you got a video that good. Bigfoot sighting, Park Ranger captures. I I just refuse to believe that. Yeah, if he heard that car, he'd be running the other way. Okay, Bigfoot on a trail cap throwing a rock at a skunk. Okay, here we go. Here we go, Bigfoot. There's a blur. Look at there's a blur across the screen, and this guy's doing it on his phone. Are you ready for this? We're gonna say Bigfoot. It's coming already. There's nothing there. It's stupid. Okay, this one looks promising. Look at this right here. So Smokey the Bear. It's interesting because it looks like a hillside of a forest, maybe something in Arizona. But again, your distance is too great to distinguish what it is. If this is a 200-foot video, if this is 200 feet away, how are you gonna distinguish what that is on video? Not that I'm trying to be like I don't know, what do you call those words? What do the kids call you when you're like negative Nancy about it? I don't know. But but you know what I mean? Like it's bear stand up. This thing could be a bear. I mean, it could be a bear standing up. It's just it's not con Okay, there it is. That's a smoky the bear. Again, that's a cell phone video.
SPEAKER_00:Only you can prevent forest fires.
SPEAKER_02:Look at that, it almost looks like there's a snout on that. But it's a it's a cell phone video from across the valley.
SPEAKER_04:That's a bear, dude.
SPEAKER_02:How are you gonna call? And that's my thing. Like, if you want to capture these things, if you're saying, like, hey, I'm seeing Bigfoot every night, and he comes and he violates my pet every night, okay, great. If you know it's gonna happen, and tackle Jeanette, get a decent camera and actually like try to get a decent picture about it. Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_04:Like that one day we were at Dario's talking about Jeanette getting taken down and dragged in the woods. Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Ah Trump. This is I've seen pictures like this.
SPEAKER_05:I'm the biggest foot in the woods.
SPEAKER_02:I'm the biggest foot. We have big foot.
SPEAKER_05:I walked in there and I said, wow, that's a big foot.
SPEAKER_02:We have the biggest feet in the world.
SPEAKER_05:Got the big feet.
SPEAKER_02:We have big foot, they have the most hair, they smell the worst. Not like the Yeti in the Himalayas. You've got a small big foot. We have the big Bigfoot.
SPEAKER_05:Make Sam squench great again.
SPEAKER_02:So I see a lot of pictures like this where they like somebody says there's obvious a face there.
SPEAKER_04:I don't see no oh wait, I see it now.
SPEAKER_02:There's a lot of pictures like this where somebody says, I have a random picture I took of the forest, and if you zoom in on this area, you see a face. This is actually a very common kind of occurrence. It's this is one of those cases where fucking AI. I know. And then these are interesting. These are drones. They have drones where they're um oh where are these uh this is dramatic station where you have trees. This is interesting where you have trees like going crazy like that in the force, like if somebody's shaking them.
SPEAKER_00:Like Jurassic Park?
SPEAKER_02:Like if somebody's shaking the whole tree. That looks like the duck guy.
SPEAKER_00:This is the Sasquatch Dynasty.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, okay, here he is. Not that guy. Where's the other guy? You're gonna see it right here. Duck guy looking for Sasquatch! Right here. Why wouldn't if you were flying that drunk? That guy right there. Oh no, that didn't look fine.
SPEAKER_00:Half of those guys look like Duck Dynasty.
SPEAKER_02:Where are the young guys that are fit that can handle this? He's got like, why is it always older guys that are like not in shape? Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00:We gotta do some shit.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, right. So, anyways. Oh, the baby bear needed. Baby bear. So, anyways, I don't know, man. I don't know what to tell you. Like, I don't buy it. Does it mean it doesn't exist? No. It just means we it just means we don't have compelling evidence to say, like, already this is big.
SPEAKER_00:Cameras have been around too long, Mark.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, but cameras have only recently gotten better, though. The fuck is this? The drone ran off battery. Oh. Shit. Oh, okay. So I don't I don't know. Uh the only way I could say you and I could figure this out random road trips. Let's go. So that's a goal. Ladies and gentlemen, episode one, season two. We are committing to road trips in the wild.
SPEAKER_00:Are we taking Jeanette?
SPEAKER_02:Oh yeah. I mean, she'll she'll she'll want to meet Bigfoot and see if everything's big.
SPEAKER_00:See if he's a nice guy.
SPEAKER_02:She'll want to verify everything's big. Is it really a Bigfoot? Or do you know, like, is it just Totanga? Is it Big Feet and a little everything else? So, anyway, that's that's what I'm saying. I don't know what any of these videos are here. I've I've never seen any of these. You know what they say about big feet? Big shoes. That's well, why don't they call Bigfoot tripod, big tripod? Yeah, thank you. Thank you. So, anyways, that's all I've got for you today, sir. Alright. So, we covered modern events, Ukraine. We saw the fighting Jake Paul Cartel, cartel nonsense, Syria, Syria. Um, we didn't talk anything about movie or anything about like cultural stuff right now, like movies and all that. No, we didn't go over Rob Reiner, but we didn't go over Rob Reiner. I will say this, and my battery's actually charging too. Um, let me get my glasses on. Old man glasses, folks.
SPEAKER_05:Gotta get my eyes on.
SPEAKER_02:I have the oldest eyes in the whole world. They're the oldest eyes in the world. Um, I've seen, hold on. I got hooked on this already. And you could tell me what you think about this. You could tell me how you feel about this. Okay. Um let me pull this up. So, over the course of Kevin Costner's career, yeah, I noticed he did Yellowstone, but I didn't really get into it because I was like, ah, these people just how far did you get? I never got into Yellowstone. It's like, ah, it's the newest, it's the newest thing. And so, but watching YouTube shorts, I got into 1883.
SPEAKER_04:That show's awesome.
SPEAKER_02:That was legit.
SPEAKER_04:To finish it, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:So I watched it non-stop. 1883, the very first Yellowstone, like the prequel to it, yeah, was legit.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, I love Faith Hill.
SPEAKER_02:Oh my god, they did a great job.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:So then that led me to 1923.
SPEAKER_04:I haven't seen any of that yet.
SPEAKER_02:Um, it starts good, kind of like it it goes up, it flat lines, and then it ends on a high note. Oh, you can see it's a lot of it. Like the way it ends, yeah. I was like, wow, kind of cool. And so then I started season one of Yellowstone.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And then I looked up the family tree of the Yellowstone characters to see how they all tied in. And I like that they all tied in pretty you can see the It's not direct. You can see the lineage of like the people and the grandparents or the great grandparents and how they get to the curtain duntons. And after I saw the first couple episodes of Yellowstone season one, I got hooked and I watched it non-stop and I just finished like last week the last Yellowstone. It kind of Oh, you actually did the Kevin Costner? The whole thing nonstop. Of 23 or Yellowstone? Yellowstone. Oh, you did finish. Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, because it's hard, it's hard to start, especially with Beth's crazy ass.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. I didn't think I was gonna like it, but I got hard into it. It when it when it ended, it went a different direction, but then like how they do the narrative at the end about protecting the land and it kind of tied into the ver night 1823. Who's 1823? 1883. 1883. It kind of the way they ended it and what they said connects to 1883. So I thought that was kind of cool, and I think it was the same person narrating from the the girl from the beginning.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, really?
SPEAKER_02:It sounded like her. But I watched it to the bitter end.
SPEAKER_04:It's rough.
SPEAKER_02:It was it was good.
SPEAKER_04:It got cancelled, I believe. Or they had to end it because of the city. No, Kevin Costner had to leave.
SPEAKER_02:He didn't want to renew or something because of horizon or something. I don't know.
SPEAKER_04:So he got divorced.
SPEAKER_02:Is that what it is? And she came after you know what I got to say about Kevin Costner being divorced? What's that?
unknown:Bitches. Fucking bitches.
SPEAKER_02:In case you didn't hear me because I was whispering, I said bitches. You know what, guys? Let's talk about this. This is a public service sound by Mark Castillo. Guys I have nothing positive to say about getting married. Now, I'm not saying it's impossible to find the right person to get married, but I am not a supporter of this. Not in the Western part of the world, at least. You know what? You know what it is is men all through history have been soldiers, have been protectors, have been battlers, adventurers, have been workers, have been providers, and now you're trying to clip their balls in 2026. When the fuck?
unknown:What the fuck?
SPEAKER_02:When the hell is like, no, you know what? When you when you meet your partner, and that's why I refer to women now that are married. I refer to them as partners, I don't refer to them wives, I refer to them as partners and roommates because that is the way you freaking act. If you know men historically through life have been wild at heart, and if you learn how to tame the wildness, you become a leader in your group, in your town, in your legion, your in your in your in your region. Men do not need to give up the world, their wild, their sense of adventure, their sense of awe, and conquering the world. And now, yeah, we don't have the wild west to conquer. Yeah, we don't have new nations, new territory, new places to conquer. But that doesn't mean that that that wild in you to go and expand and see the world and do more and advance humanity has died. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:And so this whole idea of clipping a man to be this little wimp, this little simp.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:No. You're you're you're the man you have been made to lead, to protect, to to be fearless, and to explore, and to to let that innate barbarian caveman in you out and conquer the world, whether it's it's a cement and urban jungle, or whether it's an actual jungle with a fucking can of anaconda try to kill you. But that's who we are, and a man should not give that up. Ever. No matter what town, what time, or anything at all. And this idea that men should be these soft, it's okay to cry and be a little ninny kind of thing. And okay, yeah, you know. It's okay to cry. I'm not gonna say anything about crying because we have tear ducks, bro. Yeah, we have tear ducks. Nobody can say anything about that, but to assume that we're supposed to be these soft and caring creatures all the time, history has repeatedly shown that humanity as a whole through eras World War II, Korea, Vietnam, held even the cartel shenanigans last week. Humanity as a whole is violent. And as a man, it is up to you to protect the ones you love and yourself and do what it's right and provide.
SPEAKER_04:Even if it comes to violence.
SPEAKER_02:Even if it comes to violence.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Even if it means conquering the unknown and building the Empire State Building and standing on an I-beam a thousand feet in the air. That is who we are. And a man should never give up his balls for that. And the fact that somebody thinks that that's okay, they can go to hell. We're men. And men like to lift heavy shit. We like to walk around with sticks like we're a caveman. Hell, we are still cavemen out core we are, but now we are smart cavemen. We evolved cavemen. We eat healthy. But at the still the root of it, we are these testosterone-filled beings. And even if the frontiers are the new frontier space in science, and maybe we're not there to go send people to space yet, we will get there. And it's gonna be a man that gets there. Maybe some women too, because there's some butch women that will probably kick my ass. I'm not gonna take that away from anybody. But if somebody thinks they're gonna clip my balls or clip your balls, bullshit. That is not who we are. I don't know. That's what I gotta say. Hold on. Give me something to hold here. Mic dropped. The dropped mic.
SPEAKER_04:What do I gotta say about that?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah?
SPEAKER_04:I mean. Yeah, we could go into depth about that. Um there are definitely issues.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah. We're seeing the population dwindle. Maybe it's a good thing, maybe it's a bad thing.
SPEAKER_02:Historically speaking, it happens to third world the to industrialized first world countries.
SPEAKER_04:What, the population?
SPEAKER_02:That as you get educated, as you get your ball snipped, as you become more understanding and concerned about people's feelings. Um, I'm gonna give you an example.
SPEAKER_00:Germany?
SPEAKER_02:No. Okay, no, no, a personal example.
SPEAKER_00:Okay, cool.
SPEAKER_02:This has happened to me, and um don't think I'm gonna jackass everybody that's listening. But you know, when somebody says, like, well, you don't understand why people cry, and it's okay to cry, Mark. And I'm like, you know what? I'm a man, I'm not gonna cry. And I, you know, and Artie, if you're a crier, I'm not gonna fault you for it because you're right, we do have cheer ducks, and sometimes it does hurt.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, but there's a right time and place.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. You know, I've had some friends go on before me, my father, whom I love very much. I see people go through things, but you know what? When when I see people that go before me, like, say my father, I take it upon myself. And I always tell myself this, I tell people this around me. A buddy of mine, his brother, died, and I say, it is our responsibility as men to fulfill our life destinies, and if somebody you love has gone before you, it's your responsibility to live the best life you can for you and for that person. So I'm not gonna sit here on my ass and cry when I know the person the person that loved me has gone moved on when I know they would expect me to go live the best possible life I could. And I'm not trying to talk trash about anybody about women or anything like that. Like I say, marriage, I'm sure it's fine for some people, and I'm sure you meet the partner you need, but guys, we are cavemen. Some of us are dumb cavemen, some of us are smart cavemen because I know very, very intelligent people that wow our next level intelligence. And some of them still go out pike riding and go into the wild, some of them will go hiking into the wild, some of them loved guns and things that explode, and that's who we are. We're not a bunch of pussies that sit on the couch and talk about feelings, and that's okay too. We're allowed to be guys, and we're guys are allowed to be with their friends and talk about guy things and talk about girls and go work on muscle cars and go shoot loud guns. That's who we are, and that's and and somebody has to say, but that's okay. And maybe go get some dale.
SPEAKER_03:I'm just gonna throw that out there. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, I mean, those good looking guys, obviously, not merely you, but those good-looking guys.
SPEAKER_04:Do you know what I mean? I do, and that's why I'm not really seeking that.
SPEAKER_02:Just kind of dating, dating freely, a little casually until I find something real. And I'm I'm an idiot. I'm like that guy like, I'll go lift that up. And I then I poop my anus out because you know I pull my eight, I poop my anus out because I don't wear a belt or something, but it's like ah oh dang, I need to go to the hospital. But I did it! Do you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, I got you. It's a little extreme.
SPEAKER_02:You know, if you're a man, be the best man you can be. And study and read and be the best you can be in every field. And if if that means running out in the mud and playing rugby and hitting somebody, taking a punch to a face every now and then, that's a part of the process. Uh and and I always tell I always talk about my dad. Because uh the guy pushed me hard, but Riley so because I was a I was a I was a bad kid. I was an idiot, but he pushed me hard, and when he passed away, I didn't cry because not because I didn't love the guy, I adored the guy, and I I I I respected the man he became, I respected the man he was, and his experiences far excel mine. But you know what? I don't cry for the guy because he lived a damn good life, he drank a lot of freaking beer, he knew a lot of women, he fought in the freaking war, he did the things that men are said to do, and he came back, he started a family, he made a business, and he provided for the ones he loved, and sometimes he didn't sleep for two or three days because he was always working. But god, and I mean he blew he busted his gut picking heavy stuff up. He didn't poop his anus out, but he gave himself a hernia picking up heavy shit. Why? Because he's a stupid guy like the rest of us. We like to lift heavy shit up, we're freaking cavemen. And that's okay. It's okay. I pick things up, I put them down. Ah prolapse. It's okay. We're guys, we're allowed to.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, within the law.
SPEAKER_02:Do you remember Braveheart? Of course. So the beginning scene where where Mel Gibson finally comes back as an adult and he sees his friend. He goes, A contest! And this guy picks up the heaviest rock and he throws it as hard as he can. He throws it over Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson's like, Oh god, thank God you didn't break my head. That would be me. I'd be the guy be like, give me the biggest rock I can find. Bah! And then Mel Gibson throws a little rock and knocks him out. That would be me.
SPEAKER_04:Holy shit.
SPEAKER_02:I'd be that idiot.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Or or you see those movies where there's a bar fight and like, alright, dude, you kick my ass. Let's go get a beard fuck face. Dude, you need to watch The Departed.
SPEAKER_00:Can we watch The Departed?
SPEAKER_02:I I I was gonna watch it, I ended up watching something else.
SPEAKER_04:Did you finish Daredevil?
SPEAKER_02:No. Daredevil Daredevil's our movie, Artie.
SPEAKER_04:I know. Well, no, it is, it's just not a good one. It's a Ben Allen movie, but the show, you liked what we watched, right?
SPEAKER_02:I did like what we watched. Yeah. Um, you know what I did watch recently? Um and Artie is our modern cultural specialist. He's up to speed with modern day stuff, and I really um respect him. Okay, so um it's kind of cool what you're doing.
SPEAKER_04:Thanks.
SPEAKER_02:So it's really cool. Like, you look at great actors and they follow the same path that you followed. Billy Bob Thornton. I like what Billy Bob Thornton said when that director told him, like, you're either really good or you're or you either you're either a good actor or you make your own way. So you're too ugly to be a good actor. So Billy Bob Thornton made his own copyrighted like um um switchblade. Yeah. Great frickin' movie.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Bad Santa, great frickin' movie. I so I I watched this movie the other day called Whiplash. Have you ever seen that?
SPEAKER_04:Uh yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Andrew Neiman is an ambitious young jazz drummer, single-minded in his pursuit to rise to the top of the elite. East Coast Music Conservatory, Torrent Fletcher, and um, that's the actors are they were good actors. I really liked it. Let me see here. Oh, where's it out? J.K. Simmons, Whiplash, like good actors, and uh Rooster from Maverick. Yes, the son of Rooster. Yeah, or son of Goose is Rooster and then the guy that was bald bald of the older men?
SPEAKER_00:J.K.
SPEAKER_02:Simmons. Okay, again, that is a movie that speaks to men. You're passionate about making freaking amazing music and you play the drums until your hands bleed, you get in a freaking car accident and you still show up to the freaking show with a bloody head because you want to be the best, and then you have the director on what the who's that guy, that the older man?
SPEAKER_00:Oh, JK Simmons. Is that his name? Yeah, it's J.K. Simmons.
SPEAKER_02:First of all, phenomenal, phenomenal actor.
SPEAKER_00:Phenomenal.
SPEAKER_02:Phenomenal. Like Bard Nunn, best actors, one of the best actors, right? And the way he plays that role, they that that the did you have you seen them with Flick? Oh yeah, many times at the end of it where he's like where he's pissed off at a but spoiler alert. Where he's doing the drum solo at the end of the movie, and he's like, he's like just like, okay, okay, go. He's doing the hand signal, slow down, take it easy, take it easy. He's like, and now and pick it like like it's still that same carnage, animalistic instinct you have in that in you. But he's abusive. He's abusive.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I don't want I don't want to say this because it's people will hate this saying, but great men are abusive. In their own in one way or another. But the greatest men don't have to be. I don't know. They get they still get results. Kennedy was getting tail from women, so is being abusive to his own wife. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, like there's usually something weird there. Maybe. Maybe. I don't know. We all have our own little things, but the way he did, like that last there's exceptions to that rule. That last scene there was so good. And then like the guy, um, what's his name? Um Goose? Uh Miles Teller. Miles Teller, like how he just how he just called the other guys to like I'll I'll call you in. And like, or I'll I'll like how he's told the other guys I'll I'll I'll I'll I'll bring you in. And the other guys just start playing to him, and he just takes control of it. Yeah, it's a very masculine scene, and it's freaking jazz music. But how masculine is jazz music is just such good music that hits to the core of you. There's alcohol, there's smoking, there's emotion. Is that where you listen to Buddy Rich lately? Yeah, because of that, yeah, got it. Yeah, so yeah, you hit it right at the Miles Davis. I've been jamming Miles Davis lately, and like after my last trip to New Orleans, it just When did you go to New Orleans? Last year. Oh, really? It's been a it's always been 11 months. Nolins. Yeah, Nollins, yeah. And and like they're like everywhere I went, they played such um it was like a local, no-named local, playing really good freaking jazz. Like they know it intimately. Somebody that's never gonna have a CD, somebody that's never gonna be known, but when you hear them play it, it's like you could just feel that they're playing it from their fucking heart. And and you talk about being a man, there's nothing more manly than playing something, and you play it because you know it intimately like jazz music. Jazz music's not rap, it's not class, it's nothing, it's its own theme. Yeah, and you you have to you have to know the music and feel it on such an intimate level and own it that it's it's masculine. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, it's not La La Land. So again, you have men, just like the guys that go to the Amazon and they're exploring, they're fighting the forest. Yeah, it's the same thing, but it's in a it's in a club and it's alcohol and it's smoke, and they're playing their hearts out in the same context as an adventurer going down the Amazon. Do you know what I mean? It's just it reeks of who we should be. We should be these men that just in everything we want to do, we should always want to excel, and we should want to own it, and you should get to know it on such an intimate level as fighting for your life against an anaconda or playing something so rich and sultry as jazz that it just resonates at the core of you, and anybody that sees you doing it, they're motivated and they want to live their best life based on what you're doing. That's being a man, and it doesn't have to be in the wild or no war, but it can be as simple as playing the frickin' drums and moving somebody's life with the sounds you're making. That's masculine. Do you know what I mean? That's my tempo. That's it right there. That's my tempo. If there's nothing else in my life that speaks to the heart of me, it's just that kind of dedication and love for what you're doing, that nothing derails you from that goal of wanting to know and do something to that level. And not enough of us men are willing to sacrifice to that level. In that movie where that guy goes and he tells his girlfriend, he's like, Well, you know, I want to be the best, and I don't think I'm gonna have time for you, and I don't think you know you're gonna like that I have time for you, so I think we should break up. She's like, and you're breaking up for you, and I only see you once a week? Well, you know what, woman? Guess what? I know what my calling is, and I have to do this. Why? Cause I'm a freaking man, and that's what I was made to do. It should ooze from every pore of you to conquer everything that you do. I'm fucking fired up right now, Mark. Dude, it just said something earlier that just hit to the core of me, and I just when I when I put wrap my mind around it, it's everything that we are. It's it's every fiber and every muscle, it's your belief in God, it's every feeling of love you have, it's everything that makes us who we are to be and to strive to get to that level. Doesn't matter what it is you're doing, but to just be that person.
SPEAKER_04:Damn it, I'm going to the gym right now.
SPEAKER_02:Fuck! If it was the 1980s, I'd say let's go get an eight ball of coke and go smoke the night away.
unknown:Okay.
SPEAKER_02:But it's not the 1980s. No. Respectfully so. You don't have Hunter Biden's number? No.
SPEAKER_03:The gym sounds good right now, so.
SPEAKER_02:Let's go to the gym. Let's go to the gym, everybody. Artie's been good.
SPEAKER_00:Bro. I love it. So good. We gotta do this again soon. With everything.
SPEAKER_02:2026 is our years of going on the road. Oh, let's do it.
SPEAKER_00:We should do a road podcast.
SPEAKER_02:We will.
SPEAKER_00:For sure. All my all my all my stuff is totally bubble. Oh, let's do it. I am dead. Fuck it, let's go right now. Sam's Quanch, we're coming for you, bitch. Where are you out? Hold on.
