"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Let me start off by giving you a warning that this will be a tough interview to watch. The parents of Sathur Balaji, Poor Nima and Balaji, were here today to share new insight. The last time they did this was on January 15 with Tucker Carlson. It was a very thorough breakdown of what happened to their son. The whistleblower of OpenAI went on November 21st. His birthday, 2024, comes back.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
He was already there. Okay, so you already know that OpenAI is going through this. New York Times is... Counting on the fact that Balaji is going to be speaking. Is that the one? Yeah. Custodian requests the court. New York Times argued that Balaji would have unique and relevant documents supporting to new plaintiffs allegations of willful infringement, among other issues.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
The Times attorney had previously asked the court to designate eight other current or former Open AI employees as custodians in the case, including Ilya. Sutzkever, co-founder and former chief scientist, and that's the friend that you're talking about. Yes. And Bright Light Cap, the chief operating officer. Are you currently in communication with Ilya?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Is he still with OpenAI? No, he left. He's also left.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
But he doesn't want to talk to anybody.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Well, you know, one could argue and say, you know, in the AI space right now, it's extremely competitive. People are recruiting each other. And it's like the Oklahoma land rush times a thousand. Everybody wants to own the AI revolution that is taking place. So, you know, and I'm sure it's not the safest situation to be, especially when you have that kind of content and information.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So how much time did your son spend time with him, the chief scientist?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Got it. So if there's anybody that would have intel, it would be him, Ilya. Exactly. He would have intel.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So he knows everything. So he's either worried for his life, doesn't want to get involved, doesn't want to take attention away from his company, and just kind of wants to be left alone. It's one of those things.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And he writes... About himself or about Ilya?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And did he write anything in his journal about Ilya?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Is there anything you can share on what he says about Ilya?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So complimentary about Ilya.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
In his journal that you read, who were some of the names he was concerned about? Where he said, I'm not sure if I was there any patterns that you would say the way he wrote it in this journal, he doesn't trust this guy. He doesn't trust this person.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Why is that?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And 22nd, all of a sudden, they don't hear back. They find out on the 26th their son is no longer with them. The autopsy comes out saying this was a suicide, but they now have recording from the officers talking. This may be homicide just a few hours before they then change it to it being suicide. And she showed the footage, the new private investigator they hired.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
How much time did they spend together, your son and Sam Altman? Were they interacting? Was he hands-on? Were they in the same room? Was he in boardrooms? Was he in...
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So introduction to working to OpenAI, your son is in that video? Yes. Really? They put your son in the intro of OpenAI?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
He's there. Very, very interesting. Okay. So, but hour-wise, how many hours do you think Sam Altman and Suchir spent together? Actual hours.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So he sent a note to you. Yes. Did he call you?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So he wanted to, but you declined to call. Yes. Okay. Respectfully. So he at least made the effort to reach out to you, but you didn't.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Is the request public or is it private?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
It's about your son with open...
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
wait wait there's so they're saying until the new york times article they did not know about any of the whistleblown activity that's they say that so so what was their argument that they're saying they did we are looking for someone who's read his emails or he's responded to emails so she knew it right why would he go to new york times in july end itself
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Who should be involved?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
FBI should get involved. Have you had any luck? Is FPI, since the Tucker interview, did you, because I'm assuming when you do the Tucker interview afterwards, that goes out there, a lot of weird people are going to reach out to you. Some people that are currently at OpenAI, previous employees, did anybody reach out to you after Tucker's interview?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So no one even from the agency reached out to you?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So January 15th, when was the interview done with Tucker? Is it on January 15th? Yes. So that's five days before inauguration while the president gets in. I know. So both Sam Altman and Elon are involved with a relationship with the president. The president has a good relationship with both of them.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
There's a video you'll see of his apartment room, living in an apartment that's got a rooftop lounge. This is not like it's a regular place. How did this happen? All the cameras stopped working. One of the elevated cameras stopped working. The garage's camera stopped working. The neighbor's camera, the CCTV stopped working.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
It's a bit of a technical situation here on who would want to really investigate and get to the bottom of this. But you're saying no one has yet reached out. That's interesting. OK, so maybe walk us through the sequencing of he's at Catalina Island. He's backpacking, you know, hiking with his friends. He comes back, I believe, the 21st, which is his birthday. 22nd. He comes back on the 22nd.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
21st is his birthday. I think he turns 26 years old. He's turning 26. 26 years old. And this is him backpacking Catalina Island.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And so he comes back 22nd. Does he speak to that morning? Does he speak to the family? Walk us through that.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
I know another guy that this happened to when they said, oh, the prison's cameras were not working with this. So a lot of questions there. And then they had research done by radiologists that looked at all the reports, and you see a possible second bullet. Very disturbing to watch. But if someone's going through this, what you want is justice, and you want to know exactly what happened.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Was what?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Sabotaged. Okay.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And this is at 10.18, 10.30.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
He's searching on Google about neuroscience.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And I saw something you said about a black cat that he was researching.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Because you guys had a conversation about a black cat or something like that.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And this is him. This is the CCTV camera, right, when he's getting home. And this is him getting the food at 7.30.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Okay. So, okay. Nothing on his pants. Everything looks good. He looks fine. Yeah, you don't see any stains or anything on the, any scars. He's listening to probably music or talking to somebody. Okay, so nothing seems out of the ordinary. Okay, and then what happens afterwards?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
But I want to prepare you. This will be a difficult one to watch. There's an AI war going on right now. Open AI was discussed a ton with a couple names that may know something about this that don't want to talk. With that being said, here's the interview with Purnima and Balaji, the parents of.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
He writes in his journal that mom told me to keep low profile until December 15th.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Wow. Okay. So you're calling, two rings, and then hangs up, goes to message, okay? And then at this point, this is now November 23rd, right? The next day. So what happens next after that? At what point do you get... Because I'm assuming your relationship as a mother, when you call your son, he's calling you back fairly instantly. It's not like he's going to take his time to call you back.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
You live an hour away. So you drove up to go knock on his door. So now this is November 24th.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
25th. Okay. So 25th, you drive up an hour away. You haven't heard from him since the evening of 22nd. You go to his place. What do you find?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Did you have keys to open the door or no?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So the police is not there on site yet?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Because you called to see what's going on?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
And how do you know that? You hear them?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Is that public information or that's not public? It is public. So you're hearing the leasing managers talking to each other from CCTV saying this is probably a homicide.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Wait, the cop is saying this is probably a homicide or the leasing manager is saying?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Wait, the cops are talking to each other saying this is a homicide scene?

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Today, we have the parents of Suchir Balaji, Purnima, and Balaji in here to talk about a very uncomfortable topic. This is the OpenAI Whistleblower. With that being said, thank you for being here with us on the podcast.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
I can't imagine you don't want to talk about this to anybody because you constantly relive in it. You want to find out exactly what happened because you want justice.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Thank you.
PBD Podcast

Thank you.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Well, you know, for me, when I follow this story and we've been following it closely on one end, I can't imagine you don't want to talk about this to anybody because you're constantly reliving it. But on the other end, as a parent, you want to find out exactly what happened. You want the world to know about it because you want justice.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Thank you. Thank you.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Thank you. Yeah, that's that's very strange to me. OK, so from January 15th, where you did the public interview with Tucker till today, it's been over two months. What new findings have you? Yes, I'm sure Daniel has established connection with Sam Altman November 2024. Shortly after his election, Lurie appointed Altman as one of the seven co-chairs of his transition team.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Yeah. And we've obviously seen the Tucker Carlson interview. I have a lot of new questions on what was covered from then when you guys did the interview till today. There's been a lot of new findings. You've shared a lot of videos with us, a lot of pictures. Some of them are disturbing. And I know you shared it with us. You want the public to see.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So we will do our best to present that to the audience. But if you don't mind taking a moment. assume the 90% that hasn't yet followed the story about your son. Because when I look at your son's background, and I hear the stuff that he did at the age seven, starts coding. At a young age, starts building computers with his father. Goes to Berkeley, scores a high SAT prior to that.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
This team was tasked with the guiding of his new administration and addressing the city's challenges. But when is that? November what? Because November, is that November 5th? Is that November 18th or November 27th? Because what November 17th? That's a week. That's five days before. Huh. Okay. So what new findings have you gotten since your last interview you did with Tucker Carlson?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Alcohol level 0.178.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
I mean, 0.08 I believe is DUI, right? Yeah. Alcohol level 0.178. Okay. What else did the toxicology find?

"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Nowadays, more than ever, the brand you wear reflects and represents who you are. So for us, if you wear a future looks bright hat or a value taming gear, you're telling the world, I'm optimistic, I'm excited about what's going to be happening, but you're a free thinker, you question things, you like debate.

"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Goes to Berkeley, 4.0 GPA. Becomes an intern, I think, in 2018 with OpenAI. Then he starts working with OpenAI. Makes very good money, $300,000, $400,000 a year. is living in a nice apartment, safe place, which we'll go into in a minute as well. So this guy's a prodigy. He's not a regular kid.

Okay, if you want to walk us through, Rob, if you want to press. So this is his apartment unit. Go ahead, Rob. When was this recorded, by the way?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So roughly six weeks later.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Five and a half weeks later. But nothing's been moved.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Wait, they brought the fan when?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
They bought the fan at 26 at 3 p.m., right? Yeah. I mean, 30 minutes later, they said it's a suicide, no?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So what's your concern with the timing of when they brought the fan in?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Got it. Okay. So what are we looking at here? What's in that?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Is that Adderall? Adderall, yes. He's taking Adderall. And then what's on the other side?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Okay. Got it.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Okay. Rob, continue playing. Anything here? Keep going. Did you find bottles of alcohol laying around?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So you don't see any bottles of alcohol, but his blood alcohol level was 0.178?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So if you don't mind, take a moment and kind of share the background and the story, and then we'll get into some of the new footage and findings that you have.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Yeah, and in your autopsy, you found that he apparently shot himself twice, right?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
In the AI space right now, it's extremely competitive. It's like the Oklahoma land rush times a thousand. Everybody wants to own the AI revolution.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Is that food on the floor?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
Got it. Keep going, Rob. That's the Chinese food that he had in his hand when he was walking.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
If you don't want to see it, I don't mind turning it off.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
What is that?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So it's not like he just bought the gun. He bought the gun a year ago. No, no, no.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So this is his room ransacked.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
What were they trying to find?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
What else do you see here while you're going through it?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
How many bullets were missing?
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
So you haven't opened that box to see what's in it. No one's touched it. While you're going through this, is somebody watching you do this? Did they give you permission to do this? Or at this point, it's open. You can go through it because rent's still being paid.
PBD Podcast
"There’s A Second Bullet" – OpenAI Whistleblower's Parents REVEAL New Evidence & Autopsy BOMBSHELL | PBD Podcast | Ep. 567
This was not you. This was the crime scene investigator that got the sign-off to do that. Yeah.
PBD Podcast

Ich stimme dazu, aber der Punkt, den ich hier machen will, ist der Fakt, dass wenn in den USA die Veranstaltung und die Linke Trump beurteilen könnte, damit er nicht in 2024 laufen kann, dann hätten sie genau das gleiche gemacht wie Sie.

Okay, also wenn wir uns das anschauen, dann hier ist es, was ich versuchen zu finden, ist, wie planen Sie, gegen den Supreme Court zu gehen, weil das sind die Zahlen, die wir aufgenommen haben, nur ein paar Minuten zuvor, heute Morgen, ich schaue auf den Supreme Court, um zu sehen, wie alt er ist, in Brasilien, bei 75 sind sie, es ist fast ein Forced Retirement in Brasilien, wenn Sie Supreme Court Justice sind, also hier sind die Namen, die ich habe, Luiz Roberto Barroso, er wurde von Dilma verabredet, er ist auf der linken Seite,

PBD Podcast
Jair Bolsonaro’s Prediction Comes True! Ex-President Ordered To Stand Trial In Brazilian Coup Plot
Yeah, so to me, I think for... du hast eine größere Herausforderung zu überwinden als in den Staaten, weil in den Staaten, wiederum, hat Präsident Trump das Supreme Court, weil er drei Sitzungen gewechselt hat, was sehr groß war, nie in der Geschichte von Amerika gemacht wurde. Das war ein sehr, sehr großer Deal. Und der einzige Grund, warum ich das mit dir teile, ist für die Case Study.
PBD Podcast
Jair Bolsonaro’s Prediction Comes True! Ex-President Ordered To Stand Trial In Brazilian Coup Plot
Wie du weißt, was mit ihm passiert ist, passiert es mit dir, um die Case Study zu sehen. In House in America, House of Representative, Congress, we have 435. You guys have 513. We have 100 Senate seats, you have 81. The House here, based on the folks I'm talking to the last couple days while we're in Brazil, roughly 110 to 130 in House are on your side. 110 to 130 are on your side.
PBD Podcast
Jair Bolsonaro’s Prediction Comes True! Ex-President Ordered To Stand Trial In Brazilian Coup Plot
On the Senate side, it's only 22. So, if you only have 22 Senate out of 81, it's roughly a quarter. If you only have 110 on Second Amendment, 130 on maybe other conservative issues, out of 513. So, Supreme Court is 2 out of 11. Senate is 22 out of 81. House is, let's say, 130 out of 513. Like, with everything being against you, Senate, House and Supreme Court,

In einer solchen Situation muss die Strategie vielleicht eine andere Strategie sein, um gewinnen zu können. Und die Grund, warum ich diese Frage frage, ist, in Amerika sagten Sie, wir hätten zwei politische Parteien. Herr Präsident, hier haben wir drei, aber es sind wirklich zwei politische Parteien. You have a lot more.

Okay, so I have a few other questions on this. We'll come back to this, but I want to go into the economy today in Brazil. When you look at the economy today, Lula, when he was a president from 2003 to 2010, when he left, his popularity was at 80% when Lula left. Popularität 80 Prozent, Rating 80 Prozent.

Well, I mean, the good thing is the fact that these videos are out there for people to see to know what he said, right, in the past.

So let me ask you, then who would you say is the most powerful individual in Brazil today? Is it Alexandre de Moraes? Is it maybe Gilberto Kassab?

You're based on some of the stuff they said compared to what we have in America. I'll read it to you. I'm curious, you know, where you're going to go with this.

Ich würde viel besser versuchen, dass du die Steuern zerstörst, damit sie verstehen, wie Steuern für Geschäftsführer funktionieren.

Also ist das so, wie die Social Security in Amerika ist? Weil wenn du über Social Security sprichst, die älteren Baby-Boomer werden sofort erschrocken, weil sie denken, dass sie ihre Vorteile verlieren werden, auch wenn sie uns jedes Jahr die Social Security-Karte senden, die uns sagt, dass es im Jahr 2035 ausgehen wird.

Im Jahr 2016, als Wikileaks mit Julian Assange rauskam, sah jeder diese E-Mails und Dokumente und sagte, warte einen Moment, das ist was Hillary Clinton, und Hillary Clinton war hier.

When Wikileaks came out, when the Comey-Letters came out, talking about what Hillary did a week or two weeks before the election, everything changed. Do you think the reason why whistleblowers are afraid of come out, because they're worried what the Supreme Court and Demorais will do to them?

And the reason why I'm asking this question, because did you see the clip of Russell Crowe being asked about Gladiator 2 and what he said? Have you seen this or no? No. Please tell me neither one of you guys have seen this. Okay, so then I want to get the raw reaction from you. Jesus. Can you pull this up, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Can you pull up the one I sent you? I texted you the clip. If you can play this clip. He's being asked about Gladiator. This one guy says he's doing a reaction on... Russell Crowe's question about it. And Russell says, oh my God, they better start paying me because, you know, I'm being asked so much about this movie and I'm not even in the movie.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And the question was right here, if you can play this clip and then I'll just get to it. Go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
If the part was right, why are you barking up this street for? I'll tell you why. I'll tell you exactly why. The reason why I'm asking this question, Oliver, is because for me, like,
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
gladiator is a top 50 movie of all time my opinion in my opinion you can go and debate movies it's all in the eye of the beholder you know how this works like hey that's my type she says your type you talk to mary i'll talk to jennifer we're scored away right
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And for you to make the movie, is it normal when a movie is this big of a hit to not even talk to Russell and say, here's what we're... I would have never expected anything to happen with 2 without him not being asked about it. Or is that pretty normal?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Why don't you put a cameo in it, though? Why don't you put something to like a... Well, they did.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I can't believe most people don't watch that. It's such a great, Anthony Hopkins, phenomenal movie with the stories you see. Evita, Any Given Sunday, Alexander Snowden. I can keep going on. Things you've done with Lula, 2024 writer, director, Putin, all the interviews. It's great to have you here again. Oh, that's right. Nuclear energy with Russia, which we'll get into that as well.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But he knew nothing about what's going to happen with the movie, though. Would you have done it that way, or would you have done it too differently?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Well, I get what you're saying when you're talking to the previous dinosaur, but if you watch Jurassic Park, I don't know if Jurassic Park is tied to an actor that I emotionally was affected by. That's because you're a gladiator. That's the only reason. You don't see the movie. So how do you watch the movie? How different does a guy like you watch a movie? I watch the whole thing.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You watch the cinematography.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Got it. So you just called me one-dimensional, Oliver. You hurt my feelings. Well, you're a businessman. I'm walking on eggshells around you now, right? I just got the feeling of the stories you tell. But for you, just out of curiosity, what are your favorite movies? What kind of stuff do you like?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
What have you watched the most? The most? The most times. Over and over and over and over again.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Right. I agree, but was there a flick where you guys- But that's the problem.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Enjoy the whole thing. Do you know what movie I watched like God knows how many times that nobody would ever say it's like one of the greatest movies of all time? Cocktails. I swear to God. Cocktails with Tom Cruise and what's his name? Not Christopher. Who's in Cocktails? What's the other guy's name? Yeah, Brian Brown. Oh, my God. He crushed it in that movie, right?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
The barman poet or whatever it was, you know? Well, there's hundreds of those movies. I get that. But to me, that movie I watched in the army probably 200 times. Like we literally at our unit.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You know what it was? And maybe this is the part about the story because remember, what's the story of Cocktails? It's the story of this guy that's got a dream of one day being a business owner, right? And eventually, what does he do? He opens up Cocktail and Dreams, right? And the restaurant and all this other stuff. And then, hey, I bet you'll never spook me again. I bet I will. What's that?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Oliver, if you want to get a little closer to the mic, that'd be great. But it's great to have you guys here. So let me ask you for you, you know.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You know, these moments, but... No one, Cocktail is not on anybody's 100 list. I feel like taste is different than criticism, if that makes sense. Criticism is criticizing this movie or that movie versus, now listen, I can watch a movie like that simple over and over again. I love it.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You have so many cameras. For you, when you think about it yourself, Sean, to you, he's your dad. But I mean, what is it for you when maybe we miss it? What do you think is the most impressive thing he's done in his career?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Oh, I fully agree. I agree. To me, it's the moments of Rocky IV. You know why I watched that movie so many times? My mother's side, they were communists. They were all part of the two-day party. Two-day party back in the days. You may know the two-day party from back in the days. They were communists. My dad, imperialist. So watching Rocky... you know, is mom and dad.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Can communists and Americans come together, right? Can these two guys find a way to agree? Didn't happen. They got married and divorced twice to each other, right? But there's a story to it. So for me, Rocky IV, I watched it in Iran in Farsi. Think about how Rocky sounds speaking Farsi, right?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Because that's how we would, when you would buy it, the guy would sell it to you with a guy that speaks Farsi. Now, I agree with you. 80s, to me, not only some of the best movies, but I think 80s is also Days of Thunder. You know, 80s music. 80s music is the best. I think it's the best decade of music, period.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So maybe, let me go a different angle here, question-wise, for you guys. Yeah, Oliver. Sports. Are you a sports guy? Do you like sports? Okay. Sean, are you also sports? You're a big guy yourself.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Is it just football or is it all sports? All sports. Okay, so, you know, when you talk about guys that play two sports, Brian Jordan, Deion Sanders, you know, you got a few of these, Bo Jackson, right? You got like a handful of these guys that did both and they did pretty well. Deion's probably one of the better ones that was able to- Michael Jordan tried it.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Michael Jordan tried it, but Deion actually succeeded. Deion was great. Deion was great on both, Braves and all the stuff that he did. But the question is, in movie- Is it a different sport to go from making movies to making documentaries, or is it the same sport?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
From your perspective, not ours.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But is it common for guys at your level? There's only a handful of you guys to do movies and to do docs. That's what I mean. Is that a multi-sport type of thing?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Yeah, I mean, I'm just trying to find out, like, you know, Justin Timberlake is a triple threat. He can sing, act, and dance, when they talk about that. Those are different skill sets. I don't know if Denzel can dance, and I don't know if Denzel can sing. So, okay, maybe he's not in that sense, A triple threat, right? That's what I'm saying. At this level, is it, I'm just making movies.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I'm not doing documentaries, okay? For me to go do both is not common at this level. That's why I thought, I mean, I'm asking a question about whether it's two separate sports to be played. And, you know, Oliver, what gets you to say, I want to make this movie or I want to, what is the first spark that I want to write about this? I want to go... pursue this and maybe even do a documentary on it.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
What's the first spark that gets you interested?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But again, so what got you to want to do that?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
This is disgusting. Right. This is why, you know, Rob, this is U.S. nuclear power capacity.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
additions by your initial operations don't go by the u.s you should go by china or russia that's a good point so your china and russia is a different story but this is for us right so for you that did the documentary do you have the other one as well rob that we we went away from it for a while whether you want to call it oh that's for sure yeah whatever the reasons are well because of the uh all the fear it was a fear that drove us away from it
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
This is the one that answers your question for you. Construction starts of nuclear reactors in the world. From 51 to today, the orange is China. From 95, if you look at 85, 89, you barely see one or two in China and other countries. Majority of those are us. And then when you come to the last 10 years, majority of it is China. Last 20 years. And the rest of the world isn't doing anything.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You saw him being born. He did. He did. That's cool. So what do you think it is? What do you think it is from your end? Because for us, again, as fans, you're on the inside.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Well, they are doing.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
It's interesting when you're going into something like this, because for me, like, you know, it's getting into a business. We run nine companies. Okay. So, all right. So nine goes, how do you get into this company? You find a problem and then you look for the solution on how you would fix it. That's maybe different than others. And then what demo are people not in?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And then maybe use a certain strategy, blue ocean strategy that, you know, Hey, they're not in this market or whatever. And then you make the adjustments. In a movie sense, what is that process? What is the process of doing a movie or doing a documentary? Is it let me see what story hasn't been told? Or is it, man, I like the story. I'm going to write a script.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
What's that process of starting a business? Because each movie, I remember sitting down with Aaron Spicer. He said each movie is a business. That's right. You're an entrepreneur. You've got to look at every movie as a business, right? Yeah. So what is the process of saying the next business I'm going to build is is going to be Wall Street. The next business we're going to build is going to be XYZ.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
What is that process?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
One film for himself and one film for Hollywood. Right. And Hollywood is the money one. For himself, it's the art. Right. That's what he said, at least. Interesting. Would you agree with that? Like that format?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
He's found his way. You're a disagreeable man is the feeling I get, which is needed to be a strong man. That's a compliment. I don't say that in a... The only reason you would be willing to entertain these documentaries or movies is because you don't give a shit what the market thinks. You're trying to find out what you're interested in, right? My impression... I follow my heart.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Yeah, that's exactly the point. So to me, one of the qualities of an alpha male... is that you disagree, you debate. You're like, no, I don't know if I agree with that. I don't think that's the right way to go about it, right? So when you did go through Scorsese and you're learning from whoever it is, were you at any point as a young man coming to want to get into space?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I don't know if I agree with that. I wouldn't do it that way. Did you have those moments as a young man? In his class? Not that, no, because I was learning the trade.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So your father, you're talking Lewis, your grandfather Lewis? Okay. So I just looked it up right now. He passed away March 16th, 85. Right. Next year it'll be 40 years. What movie did he get a chance to see? Did he get a chance to see anything, any of your work or no? Not the features.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Did he watch Scarface? Yeah, yeah, sure you did. What did he say about it? He got a kick out of him. But when you watched it with him, were you uncomfortable? Were you like watching him watch it or no? Were you just, hey, here's the art we made, let's watch it?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Did you write Wall Street based on stories he would tell you from Wall Street or no?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
It all changed. Yeah. And later on, the movie that a lot of guys watch that was, you know, form of Wall Street was Boiler Room, right? Where the J.T. Marlin, I don't know, I think that's what it was called. They quoted a lot of Wall Street.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Marlin or whatever. Yeah, that's right. That's right. So this was a first time, you know, we got a chance to watch Vin Diesel on what he did. You know, Noah Wood or whatever the call was. Ben Affleck, you know, talking about his... You know, Ferrari, this is my house, this is my this, this is my that. It's a phenomenal movie, but it shows the world of penny stock.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And I think I even remember somebody saying this was depicting what Jordan Belfort did that later on ended up being the Wolf of Wall Street. I read that somewhere. I may be wrong. That's true.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Did he ever inspire you to want to do a movie on him or a documentary on him?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So you wouldn't have interest in doing a movie like that? I'd love to see you do something on Joseph Kennedy.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
why why you are you what angle do you think are you kidding me like if there's a yeah so if I ever wanted to get into in two to five years we're going to get into movies not right now we're building this whole thing we're going to you know build the Burbank of east coast here in Fort Lauderdale we think that's a great market for it I suggest a book if you're interested in Joe Kennedy there's a wonderful book fiction by Richard Condon who wrote Manchurian candidate it's called Mile High
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Mile high. What does it say? Rob, can you send that to me so I can buy it? I'm looking right now. That's a great story. That'd be great. It's a wonderful story. Is it called Seat of Destruction? No, Mile High. I don't see Mile High anywhere. But anyways, if you find it, send it to me. Richard Condon, C-O-N-D-O-N. Come on, Rob, you find everything.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Oh, wow. Oh, there you go. Yeah, send it over to me. That'd be great. So it's an older book that was written. Nothing wrong with that. No, I love it. I don't have any problem with that. That's why you're here. I'm borrowing your wisdom. But Joseph Kennedy, why not, right? To me... like what is a bigger last name than the Kennedy last name? Who was the visionary behind it?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
The amount of stories of him sitting down with the kids at night, who's going to be the president, all these different things you hear about and never wanted to get, at least from the books I read, didn't want to give credit to the family that he came from, a family of money where he wanted to kind of, there's some of those stories that comes out that he went to Harvard, president of a bank, 28 years old,
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Laura Swanson. I don't know. I think it's a very interesting story. I think it's a very, very interesting story. And it's got such a long lifespan that it's an 80 years into... Yeah, but that's hard for movies. Remember that. I know. So you have to go like 20 years, right? You have to go like to a scene. Is that kind of... No rule. No rule at all.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But why are you saying it's hard to do it like that? Because of the span, the time span. So then you can pick an era to go through, right? But you just limited it. then if you're gonna make it, I trust you to do it. I'm not. You gotta find your significant points that you wanna make.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Yeah, I just think that guy is one of the biggest power players we had in America, and he'd be a very interesting guy to study. I think the new era doesn't know as much about him to realize the impact he made.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Is it 312? Yeah, it's a long movie. But I could not stop watching that film to learn the history and the acting and the 312. Wow, you know the exact minute. That's pretty wild that you know the minute.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I can't tell you that one. Okay. All right. Well, listen, your thoughts, with all these total amount of hours you put into the JFK assassination story, investigating it, right? All the hours that you put into it, okay? Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
There's this guy that just, I don't know if you've been following it closely. I'm sure you're very busy making movies, so maybe you're not following the news. There's this guy named Donald J. Trump that just became this guy, this thing they call in America. What do you mean I don't follow the news? Right? And, you know, Bobby is now involved. He's got a pretty heavy job, right? Yeah, I know Bobby.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Do you think, you know, since his involvement being in there, we're finally going to get to the bottom of the CIA documents to see what really happens?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Twice in exile, you know, living in France, Paris, making tapes that they're spreading all over Iran, spreading the message. Very, very interesting what happened with that. And the Shah had the 25-year all-year agreement that they had from 54 to 79 that was expiring. So these guys had a meeting because they knew when it, he was about to be a very, very powerful man.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And that was a concern of theirs, of what happened there. But I wonder, like, some of these, for you, like, do you have selfish reasons on things, you know, like even right now, it just happened where I said I can't find a book. And it's a mile high. Richard Condon, can you go look it up? He looks at it and says, here we go. We found it, right?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You have a, you know, the element of doing a doc to say I was right. This is what happened. You know, all the criticism that they write about whatever you make. Is there a desire for you to see, get to the bottom of JFK? Of course.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
They're the liberals or the new neocons?

That makes sense. You can't play that many. Exactly. I can do two, five times. I can do three, maybe three or four times. Right. That's the way they think.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
How do you feel for you? Because the documentary you did with all the president's men, this is, Sean, as a guy in this documentary, you have Steve Bannon, Kash Patel, right? You have Roger Stone. You have Tucker. You have a bunch of Giuliani. Flynn. Flynn. Okay, you got all these guys where, you know, the media would say, Sean, what are you doing talking to all these people?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
conspiracy theorists, you know, they're all, you know, MAGA and all this other stuff, you know, for you. And they went through this. What was it for you going through it as a director at the beginning with the level of skepticism you had when you're hearing about election interference, election for all this other stuff?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
What did you go personally yourself as a director and evolution from the beginning to the end on Trump, your impression of Trump?

A comedy that...
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
That's what they like. Hour 45. Hour 40 even. Well, I mean, what do they prefer? Do they prefer a three-hour hit that gets hundreds of people coming in or an hour 45 that, you know, five people show up?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Do you know that because you and your dad always talk about this stuff and you've been curious about this topic? Or through investigating it, you're like, this is the CIA words they use.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
There is proof. I don't know what word he used, but saying the fact that we have proof that there was collusion.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But it worked, though, if you think about it. It worked on so many people. Yeah, it worked. But what did you learn at the end of it? You're spending time. Kash Patel has now got the head of FBI job, right? Yeah. Steve Bannon, who strategically, that guy's brain, the amount of credit he gets on the right for being strategic, he's up there, right?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
What they did to most of these guys, now they're in there, right? What was it at the end for you? I'm assuming you didn't vote for Trump in 2016 or 2020. Is that a fair assessment?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So when he lost, you voted for him then?
PBD Podcast

Oh, you're from that camp? Oh, yeah. Are you there as well?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522

but already dead. Well, I mean, election for sure, but that's one term, right? But do you think this is going to be the types of an event that happened with Barry Goldwater, 60-64, where Democrats, Republicans lost the African-American vote for decades and from 60, 64% of African-Americans voted Democrat. The rest were conservative or independent.

Four years later, it went from 60% to 92% voting Democrat, and they got the black vote for 60 years. Do you think this was so monumental that Democrats may have had a blow to them that could last decades, or do you think it's just one term?

What makes, because for you, we were talking and the audience doesn't see this. And I said, guys, let's go, let's go because we're already having a podcast, right? And what did you say? You said you want all of it to be, what was the word you used? You said authentic or you want it to be, you used some word where he said he just wanted to be off the cuff.

Netanyahu.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Why do you think they're able to do that? Why do you think they're able to do that? Because the part about the dual citizenship, when you ask somebody who is pro-Israel Zionist, they'll say the reason why... we have the dual citizenship is because when Israel became a country, they want a lot of Americans to go back, but they didn't want to give up their U S citizenship.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So they made it where you could have dual citizenship. So that's the argument for that.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But what I want to ask you, Because in order to be able to do that, okay, so you're in a space where the controversy came out about Harvey, right, in Hollywood, Harvey Weinstein. And for the longest time, you saw pictures of Michelle Obama. You know, Harvey Weinstein is such a, you know, I don't know if you have this clip or not, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And I said, yeah, that's interesting because in your world, do it again. Second take, third take, fourth take. What's the most takes you've ever done in a scene? Not that many.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
It's such a wonderful, you know, beacon of, I mean, she would use some words that you talk about a Billy Graham type, right? Is that the one, Rob? Can you play this clip? You know, go back and play the clip.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Wonderful.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
You see this, right? You see Oprah. You see all these guys in Hollywood. Hillary. All of these guys that would say stuff about Harvey Weinstein. What a freaking great guy. And then all of a sudden, Why are people saying all this stuff? What control does he have over everybody? You want a job in Hollywood? You want a job in this? You got to go, no, no, no, no, no. And then disruption shows up.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Oh, shit. Now everybody wants to throw him under the bus. What happened to those 30 years you said nothing about? Sure. What happened? Because he had power and control. So this is where I'm going with it. He had leverage. The leverage was if you want a job, you got to do X, Y, Z. For me, and I'm a boss, okay? I'm not in the world. I've read about it just like what everybody else has read about it.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
If Israel is Israel, AIPAC, all of these guys, right? And, you know, Sachs, the interview that was done with Tucker, you know, there's many of these right now that are coming up. If they have this much power, what leverage do they have to be able to constantly negotiate more favorably for themselves over the American people?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
When did that happen, though?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And by the way, you know what I'll say to that? So here's... I trust my enemies very well. By the way, I trust my enemies more than I trust my friends sometimes. You know why? Because what does your enemy think about next movie coming up? I don't know the competitive space. I'm assuming there's competition with... your name and all these other guys that are making movies, right?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I'm assuming the competition, if they can find a way to have 7,500 negative reviews written on Rotten Tomatoes about a movie you come out with, I'm assuming the dirty enemy would probably do something like that to hurt you, right? Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I'm assuming the enemy would do whatever they can that I'm trying to raise a billion dollars from somebody or half a billion dollars from somebody to find a way for that deal to not get done if it becomes public, right? I've experienced this with guys.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
When I was trying to sell my company, the enemy would call the guy that wanted to buy the company and say, hey, you sure you want to go through this? And then boom. We were able to get the deal done and we sold it for a quarter of a billion dollars, okay? But I know, I trust the enemy. All I'm trying to ask, I'm not surprised that Israel did that. Good for them that they're doing that.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I applaud you for being a good negotiator. Great. But all I'm asking is, if America, you read these books, you know, and we've all read these books. When you go through the book, the question I want to ask is, what leverage do they have for America to continue to cave when negotiating. We also want this, and this, and that, and this. Okay, okay, that's not how negotiation works.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Like earlier, we were talking about when you're signing a talent, right? Hey, I want six massages a day. I want my gym to be here. I want that, I want this. No, at some point, we're not doing that. But what leverage does this person have for you to say yes to 80% of their requests? What are we getting in exchange to say yes to this? And no matter how many people I ask that question of,
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I don't know if I disagree with that. But I think the question I ask is, The leverage, what leverage should it have? Is it just money? Is it really just money? What about APAC?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
But even if you go with that, right, and you look at how much APAC gives, for example, okay. And again, I'm just playing devil's advocate here to get to the bottom of the argument. You always do. Yeah, and I enjoy that. I think that's the right way to be. But think about Elon Musk, right? Okay, so how much did APAC give? Total contribution 2024. Can you pull that up, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Are you frustrated?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I actually don't know the number.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So pro-Israel, is this AIPAC? Two Republicans, they gave $2.2 million. Two Democrats, they gave $2.2 million. So a total of $4.4 million and they gave it to pro-Israel PAC candidates. So they give $29,000 more to Republicans than Democrats. Not a big difference. But can you tell me, look up total how much money AIPAC gave to everybody last year. Total money AIPAC gave. In 2024. In 2024.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Yeah, just typing in 2024. I actually just want to know. I guess you pulled the first one out. It's the same number? Really? So the number is how much? Okay, they give $2.4 million in lobbying. The amount of contribution they got was $43 million. Okay, that's a PAC. By the way, I thought the number was in the billions. So $43 million.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Can you go type in how much Elon Musk gave Donald Trump to a PAC?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So watch this. Elon Musk spends $277 million to back Trump and Republican candidates. realistically, one could say that's 50 times more, right? 55 times more. So again, for me, I really want to know. You're ignoring the concept of influence and how long APAC is going to run. I don't think it's the right number you're pulling up because I think, Rob, they spent $25 million to get rid of Bowman.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
So that's why I don't think that's the right number. Type in how much did APAC spend to get rid of Bowman. Can you just Google that? Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Well, the NGOs are the ones that we don't know who the contributors are, right? The NGOs which, okay, there it is, that one right there. AIPAC has spent over $100 million on 2024 elections. That's the number I want to see. So very bad sign for democracy. AIPAC has spent over $100 million. AIPAC billionaire funded. Super PAC has helped defeat two of the most vocal,
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
opponents of Israel, which one of them was, yeah, Jamal Bowman. And they spent a lot of money to get rid of that guy. How much was it to get rid of him? Can you pull up that number? I don't know why I think it was $25 million. Could have been a little bit more than that. But the reason why I'm making this argument is I'm making the argument to say,
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Some may not say anything about Ilan because maybe Ilan is supporting what you support. It's like, okay, hey, great. And by the way, I'm pro-Ilan. I like what Ilan is doing. But all I'm trying to say is I get the frustration with the Israeli. I lived in Iran, so I have my own story with Muslims. I saw what that was like. And I witnessed it every day, 11 years.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I went to Germany, lived at a refugee camp. There's a lot of Muslims there, a lot of them, Pakistani, Afghanis, a lot of them, okay? I saw what happened there. I've had an insurance company I built from zero to 60,000 agents. We have a lot of Muslims in the company. Guess what? Phenomenal experience. I had the experience there. But it's not... 100% across the board with everybody, right?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
America's 13% black. Our agency was 24% black. America's 24% Hispanic. Our agency was 51% Hispanic when we built the insurance agency. And I got a chance to watch these guys because we're in 50 states. But sometimes, you know, it's... it can go in a direction where I just want to know what is their leverage? Is the leverage holding people hostage? I wrote a book, fiction book called The Academy.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
And The Academy is about a secret society that's been around for a couple thousand years that they recruit young kids and they build them into the future leaders of the world. Many presidents, many have gone through this. you know, secret society called the Academy.

And one of the stories in there is about the villain is a former deputy director of SAVAK in Iran under the Shah, who left early and he was working with the Shah. His name is Parviz Sabeti. I think if you can look him up, it's a very common American name. Rob, you should be able to spell that out easily. And this deputy director of SAVAK, who ends up having some of the qualities of the villain,
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
eventually finds me, okay? And he reaches out to me. He says, you wrote a book. I said, yes. He reads the book. Type in P-A-R-V-I-Z, and then P-A-R-V-I-Z, right, P-A-R-V-I-Z, right there, okay. So this is him. He was a former deputy director of SAVAG. And... You know, you watch documentaries on him and what the SAVAK did in Iran.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
so the director goes through some hells what you know when when you when you see stuff for for again for us who were not in it we see the christian bale loses mind clip right i don't know if you've seen it or not right we you ever seen christian bale getting upset at the camera guys at the light guys you know have you seen that on terminator uh three or four right he flipped out he was he wasn't really happy with film in general i think that he was it was not his kind of movie right

You know, these guys had, well, some of it is awful, but some of it is, you know, where they were the CIA, the Mossad, the, you know, so all of it can be said awful. CIA, Mossad, you know, SAVAK, MI6. They were all training them too, the Mossad and CIA. So we can say all of them are awful, right? They've all been trained by. And then you hear what he was able to record with MOLOS.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
and Hezbollahs, who were these clergy, and then he would get stuff with women. And so he had this footage on them, right? And that's a form of hostage. You better say this or else. I'm trying to find out, is there anything Israel has as a leverage? I'm not just saying Blackman, that's one of the forms.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I asked him. He was very gray, and he was uncomfortable answering that. We did a two-hour podcast. He did tell me that he had a mentor. Who's the mentor that he talked about Epstein? Do you remember the mentor he brought up? He talked about a mentor that taught Epstein everything. And then when I brought it up, he got very, very uncomfortable very quickly. That guy right there. Steven Hoffenberg.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
I don't know if you've ever heard of this guy or not. He helped... He was one of the guys that apparently played a role of a mentor, but there was another guy as well, Rob. Epstein's mentor right there.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Yeah, he was found dead. Jeffrey Epstein convicted fraudster, found dead in his apartment. But meaning he learned his model. So on the Epstein side, Mark never told me anything about Mossad. I asked him, I said, were you also Mossad himself? He was uncomfortable answering that directly. I wouldn't be surprised. But that's the question. My biggest question is the leverage. What did they have?
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
There's no way... Do they have it on Congress so many times? I think it's both.

I don't think that's a... anything bad to say right i think go research it and investigate it i mean march 2022 when you were here and ukraine had happened when did russia ukraine happen a month prior to that february and if you remember you were uncomfortable like you know at first you're like ah and you and i were both a little bit skeptical about Zelensky in Ukraine.

Yeah, I mean, and Christian Bale is, you know, a phenomenal actor. In my opinion, he's a phenomenal actor. But you see him, you see Tom Cruise, you see some of those.

So the angle you're taking with him is the moment you realize what happened to his brother in Uganda, which was the only one you're saying that died, from that moment on, this went from being... you know, just a job or a career that I'm going to do because I love Israel to...

PBD Podcast

to that level of power, you almost need something like this to get to that level. I mean, look at Trump. He doesn't drink any alcohol. Why not? You know the story with his brother Fred, right? We hear those stories, right? Although it was a decision before. It was a decision before, you're right, because he told him, look, listen to me, never drink alcohol, never drink alcohol.

Well, this is a key moment then in history, isn't it? But I don't think – here's my impression of Trump. I was on Jesse Waters two nights ago, and I said, you know what happens when you're handsome, rich, and met every famous celebrity in the world? You know what edge you have? One, no girl can sway you because you've been around beautiful women your entire life.

Number two, there's nothing you can give him financially for him to be, ooh, oh, my God, what a great painting, all this, nothing. so he can't buy him. And number three is he's not enamored by anybody. There is no celebrity he's going to meet where he's going to be like, oh, my God, I can't believe I'm.
PBD Podcast
Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522
Well, I think, but I think after he does what he does. But don't give it to him like Obama prematurely. But I think one thing with him, every single time I've heard him talk about Netanyahu, it's always the will see. And that's key. I hope so. Because we'll see is the pressures on who? You. Yeah. Bibi. Meaning you can't try to abuse this relationship.

Russia vs Ukraine, JFK Assassination, Trump vs Deep State w/ Oliver & Sean Stone | PBD Podcast | Ep. 522

Wow. You don't think of these things, do you? I mean, is it, is it, but is, does it get like, you know, there's a story of Maradona who they said, Hey, we want you to be the coach of whatever Argentine. I don't know if you've heard about this or not, where he says, yeah, yeah, no problem. But you know what? To do that, I need a bathroom and I need my bathroom to be gold.

They said, what do you mean? You ever heard this story or no? Yeah, Rob, can you pull this up to see if Maradona gold, Maradona gold bathroom. Just you type in gold bathroom.

Argentina World Cup, Diego Maradona reportedly requested that his two high-tech toilets, heated seats, cost $150 each, to which page he won. There's $50,000 office bathroom overhaul requesting.

They don't have to say yes to it. You know, I think about my life.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You're talking about, like, 50s is before, like, this is pre-MLK era.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You're comparing today to the 50s? This is a very different America. I mean, I understand. So the part that I truly want to sympathize with you and empathize with you and understand is the life you've lived. I've not lived your life. So I can't sit there and put myself in your shoes and say, well, you know what? I understand why you have the certain feelings that you have.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
We all have our own set of stories. I got it. But let's face it. You didn't have enough money where your parents could finance it because you guys had to take a $5 ice cream course to learn how to do this. So it's not like your parents gave you $200,000 to start a business with. Now bring it to me. So now how about me? I wasn't born here, right? My parents got a divorce.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
My dad was a cashier at a 99-cent store. I go in the military and I get out. I had a one-point AGP in high school. I'm planning on staying in the military for 20 years. Should I be felt sorry for because my parents got a divorce and I was a welfare kid and I had a one-pointed GPA and I went over there? No, my dad never felt sorry for me. Nobody's talking about feeling sorry for you.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
But wait a minute. You're saying generational wealth. You know how much money my parents gave to me? 99 cents. But you know what they gave me? I lived here at 12 years old. I came to America. It's the greatest gift. The greatest gift anybody can give you is being born in America. So you know what I did with that?

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay, so, gang, every once in a while I do a podcast where I have no clue where we're going to go. I'm just being very upfront. I have no idea what we're doing today. What I do know is, I don't know if you recognize this brand, Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. If you've ever had Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, the founder, Ben, is here today.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I went to work and I made some money and I'm not white and I'm Middle Eastern and I'm from Iran and people have called me a lot of weird names while I was in the military. They call me terrorist, they call me this, they call me that because I was in the military, because I have a Middle Eastern look they had never seen when I was in Alabama. Do I really want you to feel sorry for me?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I think the part about looking at it from that standpoint, your argument is the generational wealth argument. Your parents gave you generational wealth that maybe others didn't get it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Do you think even without college, you would have eventually built Ben & Jerry's? What did you learn from college that helped you build Ben & Jerry's? I'm curious.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Thank you. So let's just say they don't pay you for college. Would you have eventually still built Ben & Jerry's?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why do you think, though? Why do you think? Why do you think? Do you really want to go there? It's not going to be good if you really want to go there. You know, I assume it's about money and funding. Do you know out of the top 25 crime cities in America, how many of them are ran by a Democratic mayor? 21 of them. Sometimes it's 17, sometimes it's 21.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I want to hear you please break down my argument.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Ben, can you pull up what are the top five cities in America in crime? Pull up the what are the top five cities in America in crime? In crime. Can you zoom in a little bit because of my eyes? All right, Memphis, Tennessee, St. Louis, Detroit, Michigan, Baltimore, Maryland, Little Rock, Arkansas. Can you do me a favor? Keep that page and can you ask the same question?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Ben Cohen, to kind of tell you an idea about where he's at while we're talking right now. They're from Vermont. I've been to Ben & Jerry's because the insurance company that we're one of the guys that writes the most insurance policies with them, National Life Group, is down the street from you. So I know them. So I've been to Vermont quite a few times. So we go to the headquarters.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Who are the mayors of each city? By the way, I don't know this because we're just spitballing right now. I don't know the answer. Five of them may be Republican, and I may look like a fool right now. So do me a favor, Rob. Take each one of them, copy-paste Paul Young and Memphis, Tennessee, and just put mayor next to it. Yeah, is that him? Can you go and see where he's at politically?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Democratic Party top right. Okay, let's go to the next one. Let's go to the next one. Tashara Jones, mayor, let's do the same thing. And again, I don't know. She's probably a Republican. Nope, she's a Democrat. Okay, let's go to the next one.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I mean, we know that most cities... It's called horrible policies. What's this one? Is this one a Republican?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Unaffiliated. Can you go click on the guy's profile? Let's go a little bit deeper. If you can go on his Wikipedia, zoom in. So Detroit, Michigan... I'll go a little bit lower, Rob. Okay, there it is. Political party, Democrat. He just changed last year after Trump.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Let's go to the next one. I'll make my point. Let's go to Brandon Scott, Baltimore. Baltimore, Maryland. Another Democrat. Let's go to the fifth one. What an interesting exercise this was. I wasn't even expecting to do this. Boom. Boom. Five for five. Five for five. So why do you think that is, though?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
By the way, D.C., when you think about the biggest income disparity in America, you know what city is the biggest income disparity with the most people making over $200,000 and the most people making less than $20,000? It's D.C. Can you look up when is the first time D.C. had a mayor? When is the first time D.C. had a mayor? Let's look at this.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay. Can you go on, Chad, GBT, and ask, since 1973, how many Republican mayors has D.C. had? Zero. Zero. Zero. So here's my question for you. If all these people, look at that, Walter Washington, Democrat, Marion Barry, Democrat, Sharon Kelly, Democrat, Marion Barry again, Democrat, Anthony Williams, Democrat, Adrian Fenty, Democrat, Vincent Gray, Democrat, Muriel Bowser, Democrat.

We have a good time. We're going to try Ben & Jerry's. I brought a lot of other ice cream that he hasn't seen it yet. I brought Haagen-Dazs. The reason why this is important is because I used to work at Haagen-Dazs back in 94, 95. So there's a certain affinity. I was the number one banana split maker in the entire Glendale Galleria Mall. I was the best.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
If they've had this city as a Democratic voter since 1975 and they are so noble and they have such great policies and they're black, how come they haven't been able to fix it? Why? I don't know. You don't know? No, I don't. You don't think maybe it's bad policies? You don't think it's that maybe we have to try something else? Well, like what? So let me ask you, why do you think Trump got elected?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why do you think Trump won?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So why do you think so many blacks, why do you think so many Hispanics voted for Trump like we've never seen before.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So why do you think the poor, low, middle-income support for Trump skyrocketed where Kamala Harris, who is, according to her, African-American, Jamaican, Indian, we don't know what she is, or Biden, why is it that even with her, she lost seven battleground states and she lost the majority? Why do you think that is?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why do you think black people and Hispanics trusted a white guy, Trump, Republican, more than they trusted an African-American lady to solve their problem?

Does that include Bernie? Does that include Bernie? Was Bernie funded by rich people? No. No, he wasn't. Do you remember that exchange when Hexet asked him a question? I don't know who it was, Rob, when he says, I don't know who it was. Somebody asked him and said, I'm sorry, your campaign... 45% of your campaign was from Big Pharma. I don't know if you remember that one.

Even with him, here's a socialist that's worth 10 million honors. He's a pretty rich guy. He used to say millionaires and billionaires. Now he no longer says millionaires and billionaires. Why did he drop millionaires?

I may make a comeback. I'm telling you, I was very good at that part. But let me tell you what's kind of interesting about this conversation. Tony tells me Ben Cohen from Ben and Jerry's reached out, says he wants to be on the podcast. I said, really? I said, is he not a socialist Bernie Sanders guy? I think he is. I said, why do I think that they're, you know, Vermont, Bernie Sanders? Yeah.

Bernie, they don't like that.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So, again, the hypocrisy in politics is a little bit frustrating because I understand Bernie says, well, we got to do the millionaires and billionaire class. The moment he becomes a millionaire, he drops the millionaire. He just wants to bash the billionaires now. I don't take any money. One and a half million comes. The eventual challenges, the hypocrisy that shows up.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
And I think that's the part that Americans are tired of it. They're just sick of the games that politicians play. And they're eventually saying they're done with it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560

You guys took that a year later, created Ben & Jerry's with $12,000, and you turned that into a machine.

See, you are competitive. By the way, I was about to open up Haagen-Dazs to go take me back to back, and he got upset. So would you actually have a Haagen-Dazs ice cream or no? You wouldn't do it? No. You wouldn't do it? No. I'd watch you. What's your thoughts like with these other ice cream companies?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Do you really want to go there? It's not going to be good if you really want to go there.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
That's right. And then today, Ben and Jerry's, just so you guys know how much ice cream they sell. The founders started in ice cream. They do a billion dollars of sales a year right now. So the question then becomes, how do you, who has made his money as a capitalist, support a socialist? How does that work out? I'm really curious.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Of course. Rob, can you pull up the statistic? I think the audience has to know how competitive and how much of a capitalist he is. He's just acting like he's a socialist. Rob, can you pull up, go to, say, the number one ice cream company in America?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I think you actually are. Statista, according to Statista you are, private label is one, but you're number one. Ben and Jerry's.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You didn't know this? Seriously, you didn't know this?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It's unbelievable. But please tell me you're joking right now that you didn't know you're number one. You know, people might have said that, but I didn't really believe it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You're still, according to statistics, you still are. That's crazy, though. That's great. That's beautiful. You think you guys got lucky or you think you work your ass off? Both. Okay. There's nothing wrong with that. I've heard the harder you work, the luckier you get. You ever heard that quote before?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Well, they got to find a way to create their own luck by adding additional values and principles and skill sets that they can pick up. And I think that nowadays, by the way, Ben, maybe not your time. Maybe not your time, okay? But during our time, there's this thing called YouTube where you can literally learn anything. Back in the days, you had to take a course.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Rob, can you go type in online how to make an ice cream? Can you go type in on YouTube? Let's see what video comes up. Man, I love talking to capitalists that... You know, love bringing value and competing and being number one and building a billion-dollar business. Look at that. Homemade ice cream without a machine in just five minutes. 28 million views. Did that exist when you were coming up?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
The person was stoned. But the question is, was that around when you came around? No. No. You have to learn how to do it. Nowadays, all of this is available. And by the way, you know how much it costs to watch that video on YouTube?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I didn't say as good as you. I didn't say as good as you. So tell me, what's the story with this one? Do I break it, or what do I do?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I've got to tell you, this is my favorite one.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
No, what I'm saying is, even though it's my third one I'm having, this is number one so far, dirt cake.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Guys, we're sharing ice cream.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
For me, I don't mind because I was in the military, so we will eat off of anybody.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
This is okay. You want me to rank them? Yeah. I'll rank them. Number one is Dirt Cake. Number two is Strawberry Cheesecake. Number three is this guy. What's this one? Chocolate, what does it say? Chocolate fudge brownie?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
No, it was delicious.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
But let me tell you, that's the one.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Listen, I probably shouldn't be eating ice cream right now. We just brought the stuff out here to see if we can get you to eat Haagen-Dazs. Because, you know, Haagen-Dazs' CMO called us and they gave us a million-dollar sponsorship saying, if you can get Ben to eat Haagen-Dazs, we'll give you a million dollars because they're going to say even Ben eats Haagen-Dazs. Rob, what do you think about it?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
By the way, that would be a great ad.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
That would be a great ad. Can you think about that? No, but yeah, so... Out of all the things you guys did, by the way, who was the marketing brand? Was it you? Are you the marketing guy? You're the marketing guy, right?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So when I think about stories that you guys did, so you did flavors for Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Snoop Dogg. You did one for President Bush called I Do, I Do, because of the same-sex marriage stuff, which I thought was funny. Did you come up with that?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay, got it. There's a Bill Clinton one called Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Was that your time or no?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Oh, I thought maybe you could.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
By the way, you guys also did one by Colin Kaepernick called Change the World. Yeah, that's a good one. Change the World. And then you did one with not the defund the police. It was called Rustic Remixed in 2020 for criminal justice for Black Lives Matter. So I got a question for you. When are you doing a Trump ice cream?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why not? You can do an Orange Sherbert. You can do... Right, Rob? I mean, you gave that idea.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
But let me ask you, if Ben & Jerry's were to do a Trump ice cream, would the customers be upset?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
How many Republican ice creams have you guys made? You guys have made it for all the left president. You make one for a Republican president. Do one for Trump.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You're so funny. You're so funny. No, I think he's doing fine business-wise. No, I don't run the insurance company. I'm still the CEO, but it's not what I used to do. By the way, this ice cream, I'm glad we went through this year. What's this one here?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Is it good? Do you respect it?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
What's Talenti?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
The way you reacted, you didn't react like the Tujaganda. So you gave a little bit more love to Talenti. What was that all about? It was like you saw an ex of yours or a girl back in the day. It's like, oh my God, it's Mary.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It's owned by Unilever. Oh, but is that like a... I mean, they almost don't want you to have it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560

PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Bring Tony in. Tony will do it. Tony's good with the girls and he's going to find a way to use his hands. Tony's... Where's Tony at? Seriously.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
That's what I'm going to do. All right, let's see what we got. So what is this supposed to be? Is this like a gelato? It looks really good. Nowadays, more than ever, the brand you wear reflects and represents who you are. So for us, if you wear a Future Looks Bright hat or a Valuetainment gear, you're telling the world, I'm optimistic. I'm excited about what's going to be happening.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
But you're a free thinker. You question things. You like debate. And by the way, last year, 120,000 people got a piece of Future Looks Bright gear with Valuetainment. We have so many new things. The cufflinks are here. New Future Looks Bright. This is my favorite, the green one. Just yesterday, somebody placed an order for 100 of these.

No, this is fifth place. Well, maybe the cherry is fifth place because I'm not a... Oh, because you're into the dirt. The dirt was delish.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Yeah, this is for me. Thank you. So going back to it, building a business, how many people have you fired in your career?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why do you fire people, these poor guys? Why do you do such a thing?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why'd you fire them, though? Man, that's cold. It's like a capitalist fire people. Socialists don't fire people. Ben, why? Give me a break. Like, look, if you were a former employee that Ben fired you and broke your heart, call me. Let's have some Haagen-Dazs ice cream together, right?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
By the way, just so you know, don't feel bad. I've fired a lot of people as well. And trust me, it's never fun to do, but sometimes you got to do it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You would say the monster is hungry.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Who fired you? We've got to go find this person.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
How old were you when you got fired? Were you in your 20s? Yeah. I got fired once for Bob's Big Boy. Oh, Bob's Big Boy. Yeah, Bob's Big Boy in Burbank or Glendale off of Glen Oaks. You know why I got fired? They had a walk-in freezer. And I used to hide in the walk-in freezer and eat coleslaw. And I got caught one too many times, and the guy's like, look, man, you casted the coleslaw so good.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It was the best coleslaw. And finally they're like, today's your last day. So I got fired from Bob's Big Boy Eating Coleslaw. Can't make that story up. The people that worked there, they would remember me when that happened because – They wouldn't even make me a waiter. They said, you talk too much. I was a busboy. I was the busboy the entire time.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
And I got along with the chefs, and the chefs would make me shrimp. And shrimp, when you're poor, it's rich man's food. When you eat shrimp when you're broke, making $4.75 an hour. My first job was 375 or 425. I don't know what Elaine paid me from Haagen-Dazs, but it was either 375 or 425.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You know, I got a chance to, Bill Clinton came to Glendale Galleria, and I got a chance to shake his hand at 14 years old. Met him later on, but as a 14-year-old, met Clinton, shook his hand. So how do you feel about what's going on right now with Doge, what Elon is doing, Pentagon budget? How do you feel about all that stuff?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So Pentagon spent $5,700 for a soap dispenser. You can snag at Amazon for $7. Air Force spent $10,000 for a toilet seat to cover low cells for $28. Pentagon paid $4,300 for a single half-inch metal screw. The value is $1.38.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Because why am I against it? No, so, okay, so please help me understand this. So at first you start Ben & Jerry's, and I saw that where you guys were doing 5 to 1 ratio, meaning if the lowest level employee full-time was making $30,000 a year, the CEO couldn't make $150,000 a year, right? That was at the time. What do you think the ratio is right now at Ben & Jerry's? I really have no idea.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
What is that you've got there, BBs?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Would you say it's 1 in 40? It might be. But you work there, so you know what the CEO is making. You know what kind of money he's making. You probably have the context in there. Let's just say the CEO of a company... Like, if I go right now, Rob, can you find out who is the CEO of Ben & Jerry's? I don't even know it. Ben & Jerry's... CEO, salary. I don't know what it is. I've never Googled it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So, okay, that was a very interesting visual to see what we did versus what it is now. Absolutely insane. How much more do we have? But if we were to ask the question, I mean, this has been going on over a long time. Why do you think we've been doing it? Why do you think we are increasing our nuclear capabilities the way that we are? What's the purpose of it?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You think it's purely the military-industrial complex?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I'm interested.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay, so Ben and Jerry's salary CEO back in 2000. We're talking... That was at the time that the company got sold. But at the time... the salary was 504. 25 years ago, it was 504, okay? So, which became 17 to 1, all right? So I want you to follow this. So what you just said is, I'm just responding to what you said. So Ben and Jerry's got started.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It saps your wealth. We're on the same page here. So you're not saying anything. We are fully on the same page. The fact that we are overspending the level of Pentagon accountability. Rob, if you can play one of the clips of the guy saying $90,000 for washers just to validate his point, go for it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay. So then what this tells me is... You're agreeing what the president is trying to do, Trump, to save from wasted expenditure. You like what Musk is doing. You like what he's doing to go to the table with Putin and Russia and, hey, find ways to lower everybody's commitment with nuclear weapons. That's what you're talking about. So you're liking what President Trump is doing.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Originally, you guys wanted to be very noble and, hey, we're not going to pay anybody at the highest level five times more than the lowest level employee. Lowest level makes 30, highest level makes 150. Okay, cool. Nice guys, noble guys. By 2000, you build a business that's doing $200 million a year. You guys are selling it for $326 million.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
What do you disagree with him? What do you disagree with the president?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So you voted for Biden. You think Trump would have stopped the war if he was president, but then you still voted for Kamala. What prompted you to want to vote for Kamala over Trump, even though you know he could stop the war?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Can you be specific? You can't just say that and not give me specific. You've got to be pretty specific. What do you mean by lack of compassion and dishonesty? Because Kamala Harris always tells the truth, and we know Joe does, always. They never lie. But what do you think with Trump?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Racial justice?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
He was the first guy that did the prison reform that even Van Jones went and stood behind him crying, saying, I cannot believe this just happened. He did that.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Do you remember that or no? Yeah, I do. Yeah, I mean, if there's anybody that's about, you know, the racial injustice side, it's Trump. It's not, you know. This is a guy that's done a very good job in that. But I want to know specific from your side. What is it? Because you're not a... You know when you're as successful as you are, you can't wing answers. You cannot wing answers.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Now, let me tell you why you can't wing answers. Because... If I was to check right now, Rob, can you go to ChatGBT? How many businesses in America went from zero to a billion dollars in revenue? So if we go how many businesses go from zero to a billion dollars in revenue, the exact number... I want to know how many total companies is what I want to know. Can you see that?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Then the CEO pay was 17 times the lowest amount the employee was making. So that disparity went from 5 to 1 to 17 to 1. Let's say today, who is today's CEO of Ben & Jerry's? Dave Stever. Is it Dave Stever? What is Dave Stever's? Salary, Dave, Stever, Salary, Ben, and Jerry. If I go to it, I wish I could see it. I wish it was public. It's not showing it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
How many total companies have gone from zero to a billion dollars in revenue? Okay. It's got to be a big number. I don't know if they have the number or not. It's got to be a lot of them. Okay. You build the number one ice cream company in America. Yeah, you can say luck. You're very creative. Just right now you did that. Your mind is a creative mind to come up with certain things.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You can't just say lies and certain things and not be specific. I guess maybe the question is better to ask you the following way. Who inspired you politically when you were younger? Like who was your hero when you were a kid?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Martin Luther King? He was your hero?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why was he your hero?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
He was an inspirational leader to you? Yeah. OK. Who else? Was there a book that you read? Was there something that influenced your politics? Did you read Communist Manifesto? No. You've never read Communist Manifesto? I've read the book.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You've never read it?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Ben.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay, all right.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I think if you read Communist Manifesto, you may go to communism. I mean, you're one step away from socialism.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
But I favor 80% taxes.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So you think, let's process that. I'm actually curious to know what you'll say here. So when somebody like you says 80% taxes, you know what you're really saying? You think the U.S. government can do better with our money than we can do with our money? That's what you're saying? You think Congress and Senate can do better with our taxpayer money than we can?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay, so let me get this straight. And so just 10 minutes ago, you are speaking to the audience who is loving watching you. and you showed how much the government wastes money. Then 10 minutes later, you say you trust our money going to the government, that they'll do a better job than staying in our pocket. Do you know the average person watching this? They're so confused right now.

They're about to have a drink right now. That's a confuser. You just confused the shit out of them. They're sitting there saying, so let me understand you, man. I really want to understand you. I like you. I eat your ice cream. You seem like a really nice, and you sincerely seem like a nice guy. And I'm really enjoying this.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
How can you one minute say the government wastes money and next minute say let's pay more money because we think they can do a better job with it?

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Does he get stocks? Does he get shares? Does he get bonus? Does he get LTIP? I don't think so. But if it was 500,000 25 years ago, Ben, it's not going to be less than 25 years ago. I believe it probably is, but I don't know. I know, but let's just say it's a million bucks. Let's say conservatively it's a million bucks. And let's say the ratio now instead of 17 to 1 is 30 to 1.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Why do you think you were overly protective of the money that was being wasted? Why?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Because it's your money. Well, it's... It's your money. That's why. Because you busted your ass to make that money to create jobs. So now imagine these guys are spending $90,000 on a bag of washers that at Lowe's I can buy for $329,000. Okay? You want me to trust them to raise taxes? Hell to the no. When I see Doge and I see the money stuff that comes back, you know what I tell myself?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
How soon are you guys lowering taxes? Because you guys have no clue what you're doing with our money. That's what it makes me think about. Why would I give you more money that you have shown over and over again that you like to waste it? So you give them more money. You don't think there's going to be more military contractors?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You don't think there's going to be more big pharma coming in wanting contracts for people to get unhealthy so they can sell $100 billion of vaccines so Pfizer's revenue goes up $100 billion? You think COVID helped that Pfizer? You think COVID was a very good event for Pfizer stock? What do you think? You think COVID, you know, Rob, isn't it true that even Pfizer CEO didn't even take the vaccine?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Well, hey, the rest of us had to. You think that was a profitable event for them? You think they want another COVID? You think they want another pandemic? Of course. Why? Because the money goes away. You know, there was one of the guys from the big pharmaceutical companies that never took the vaccine. I just don't know which one it was. You don't think that funnels back through?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
No, I think the American people, the reason why they love Doge is because they're done with wasted expenditure and they don't trust the government. It's the lowest it's ever been. You've been around. You said you were born in 1951. I think you said 1951, right? Did you say 1951? A lot of wasted money from 51 until today. Look at the year you were born. Look at the trust.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It was 80% is where we hit. Look where it's at right now. Lowest it's ever been. What happened? They don't trust it. They don't trust the media. They don't trust the government because they're full of shit. They keep wasting our money. And you want to sit here? You know what I'd love to see you do? Go run on the campaign of raising taxes to 80% marginal. See what happens today.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560

By the way, the people that are creating commerce who want to mind their own business like you used to when you ran your business and you tried to create savings, those people are going to mind. It's easy for you to say it right now. You're in your 70s and you've already made your money to say, hey, let's do it to the guys now. I didn't get it. Now let me do it to the other guys. That's not fair.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Pick a number. Pick a number that's a reasonable number. You have to earn the right to raise taxes. The government has to earn the moral authority to be able to say, let's raise taxes. How do you earn the moral authority? By showing what you do with the money. Seven years Pentagon hasn't been able to show our audits. They failed an audit seven years in a row. You want us to trust the U.S.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
government?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I think the president is wanting to cut. This is why he wants so many Democrats. Can you imagine? Were you a John F. Kennedy fan when you were younger? Yeah. You know his nephew went to the other side. You know, his nephew who loved his dad and loved his uncle became an addict for 14 years because he lost his dad, and we almost lost Bobby.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
He eventually got so sick of what the left did, and he went to the other side. So did Tulsi. So did Trump. Trump used to be a Democrat. So did Musk. Musk used to be a Democrat. So did Rogan. Rogan used to be a Democrat. He may still be. I mean, this is the most devastating season ever for Democrats, ever. Every state turned more Republican. Eighty-nine counties turned more Republican.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So you guys started off 5 to 1. It went 17 to 1. Let's say it's 30, 40 to 1 now. And then at the time you were saying 40 to 1 was what it was in the corporate world. Now it's 400 to 1. You guys have 10x. They have 10x. So what's wrong with that? What's wrong with if you're creating value? Ben, you guys did something that's very difficult.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Seven battleground states. Majority went to him. The last time that happened was 20-some years ago. This is one of those moments where Americans sat there and watched. The Democrats had control during COVID, and they tried to abuse Americans. And they said, leave us alone. Leave us alone. I don't want you to force me to do anything.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
And for you, Ben, a successful man like you that built an incredible business that the rest of us get to smile. You make people smile. Every time somebody has your product, they are smiling. They're happy. You know what is the most happiest moment of my week? When I get to take my daughter to this ice cream shop in Fort Lauderdale and she eats her ice cream and her reaction, I melt.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You produce the product that put millions of people, smile on millions of people's faces. That's what you produce because you worked your ass off and you took advantage of the opportunities that they gave you. You saved every penny so you can pay your people better to create a better company. You're a hero. You're a hero. And the other side likes you because you give them money.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
But if you didn't and you were a Republican, you would be despised by the other side. You'd be considered a rich, greedy man. And all you ever did is start a company with your best friend and turn it into what you turn it into. And that's not cool. It's not cool. It's not cool that just because somebody has a dream and they go work hard and I'm supposed to go out there and feel guilty about it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I'm sick of it. I'm sick of them making success feel guilty and, hey, you make too much money, you're a billionaire, you're a bad person, you're this, you're that. Let's recognize our heroes. Let's start, like, stop, like, undermining anybody and everybody that they win. We just tarnish, tarnish, tarnish, tarnish, tarnish. Oh, he's a horrible man. Tarnish, tarnish. Stop it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I'm not about tarnishing people. I'm not saying you, but it's a lot of people on the left. And it's enough. It's enough. It's too much. And people, honestly, though, people are tired of it. That's what happened in 2024 on November 5th.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I don't either.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I agree. I agree. And by the way, you know what's the other thing that they were sick of? Sick and tired of? Did you watch the State of the Union? No. Okay. So there was multiple moments that were embarrassing. One moment where the ladies on the left are wearing all these pink outfits and And President Trump says we want to keep boys out of women's sports. None of them stood up or clapped for it.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Do you agree that transgender should be competing against men, against women? Do you think Martin Luther King, your hero, would agree with that? You think Martin Luther King would have said, yeah, you're a man. You were born a man. Yeah, so you want to go compete with women. Yeah. Yeah, no problem with that.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Do you know how many people in America build a business from scratch that go from zero to a billion dollars in sales? Not many. Oh, Ben, what you've done is called doing the impossible. And I think the market should recognize you for it, your level of creativity. So that's the part.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You think Martin Luther King, who said, one day we're black boys and white, you think that man would be okay with puberty blockers? Seriously? You think your hero would be okay with puberty? I don't think so. You don't have a painting in my house. You know who's in my painting? John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, two of my heroes.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Every time I've ever had an office, I've always had a picture of Martin Luther King there. He's a hero to so many of us. I just don't think he would have been with that. And then you want to teach my kids LGBTQ? If a person wants to be gay, go at it. I don't have any problem with it. But we don't need to sit there and indoctrinate. Leave it alone. That's the painting.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Martin Luther King all the way to the right. I have Tupac in the painting. I have John F. Kennedy. I have Einstein. I have Lincoln. I have Milton Friedman, the Shaw Center, and a couple hidden messages in there. You know what's sitting on the table? They're debating a book. It's Communist Manifesto and Atlas Shrugged. representation from both sides of the economy, sit down and debate that.

That's the painting in my club room in my house, 15-foot painting. But to me, I'd love to see someone who, for you to build a business the way you did, you have to know how to reason and use logic. If you don't, you will fail. You'll be bankrupt.

Do you think, like, when you guys originally started and you're building a business and you and your partner, you guys are two nice guys, Potter and a guy that was rejected from medical school, you built something with a $5 course that you take on making ice cream, and at first maybe you guys coming from a place of socialistic ideologies, and then now you're kind of like...

Last thing before we wrap up. What do you think about Hamas and Israel, the war? Do you have any opinions on that?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It's about to get very ugly after what the president put out there. I don't know if you saw this or not. Did you see this? Shalom Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose, release all the hostages now or later, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered or it's over for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies and you are sick and twisted.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I'm sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job. Not a single Hamas member will be safe. If you don't do as I say... I have just met with your former hostages whose lives you have destroyed. This is your last warning for the leadership. Now is the time to leave Gaza while you still have a chance. Also, to the people of Gaza, a beautiful future awaits you, but not if you hold hostages.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
If you do, you are dead. Make a smart decision. Release the hostages now or there will be hell to pay later. How do you feel about that?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
So what if they don't release the hostages? So, Ben, maybe you have a better strategy. How do you get them to release the hostages? Share it with us.

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560

What should he do? Should he send a case of ice cream? Guys, release them. Here's Ben and Jerry's. Maybe he sends the dark chocolate, the dirt, what is it called? Dirt cake, my favorite. They may not like that because it's dirt cake.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Could it be because as a leader you have a position that sometimes you have to make a tough decision that the average person will not understand and there's burden that comes with being a president?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
I do. I do as well. If one of those hostages, God forbid, were our kids, how soon would you want them to make a move so they return to you so you can hug them again?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Maybe capitalism's kind of cool, and there's nothing wrong with capitalism. Have you gone through that evolution yet or not yet?

Every day they're there. Their days are numbered. Each day they're there, your imagination. You're a great marketer. In your imagination as a father, you're imagining what they're doing to your daughter. You're okay with that?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
It's tough. And so no matter what he does, he's going to have hate. But he's got to make a decision. This is why being a leader is not for everybody, especially being a president. It's a lot of burden that comes with it, especially a president like him that's actually making decisions that a lot of people are giving him a hard time with.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
And he's got a big support, big people that are sitting there saying, let's go. Ben, I can tell you one thing. I had no idea where we were going to go. Honestly, I had a blast with you.

I don't think we could be the number one. But please tell me you're joking right now that you didn't know you're number one. You're the number one ice cream company in America.

Which nobody paid for, just so you know that. They had it, but no one ever paid it. No, really, no one ever paid it. It was what they talked about, but everybody adjusted in ways so nobody, even like people would do certain jobs so they never paid the highest marginal tax rate.

What's the top marginal bracket? If you live in California, you're paying nearly 60%. But let's just say 43%. Right. You think that's too little?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Let me ask you a question. When you sold, you paid capital gains, no? Sure. No, you did. When you sell a company, you didn't pay ordinary income. You pay capital gains taxes. So you guys sell for 326. Let's just say at the time you won 80%. I don't know what percent. I didn't. Okay, but let's just say whatever it is, you still are a nine-figure guy. You made real money, each of you guys.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Nine figures, like 100 million plus.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Okay. But guess what you are? You're still very rich compared to the average person. But here's a question for you.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Eventually. Well, why don't you do it while you're alive? I'm working on it. Well, why don't you do it sooner?

"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
What's the longest vacation you took in the first 10 years of building Ben & Jerry's? Not much. Oh, really? Why not? Other people who have jobs can take longer vacations. Why didn't you take it? I guess I chose to build the business. And therefore, you made the money that you made. Most people don't want to work as hard as you did. What you did was very difficult, Ben.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
One of the best business stories we've had on America, guys. How do you, who has made his money as a capitalist, support a socialist?
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You've got to give yourself credit for it. So to me, I understand the concept of, well, the rich people are this, and the rich is getting richer, the poor is getting poorer, and questioning that. But the reason why you make a lot more money than some of the people that you're saying are left behind, you solved a bigger problem.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
You kept trying to find creative ways of coming out with different flavors of the ice cream. You guys kept trying to be creative, and you worked your ass off. And the market finally said, did these guys really build a business from zero to doing 200 million a year? Yes. Holy shit, let's buy it from them. And then after they bought it from you 25 years ago, it was doing $200 million.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560
Now it's doing a billion a year. You know what that says? You guys built such a good business that somebody, after they bought it, they made five times the amount of money. That's a real business. That's not easy to do. What percentage of Americans do you think are willing to work that hard as hard as you? Not that many.
PBD Podcast
"Billionaires Shouldn’t Exist" - Ben & Jerry’s Founder SLAMS The Rich, Capitalism & Corporate Greed | PBD Podcast | Ep. 560

I agree with you, but let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question. For the people that get paid $7.25, for those who do, the few that do, why do you think they do? Well, I don't know how many there are, but I think there's a lot. But why do you think they only get paid $7? They don't have to say yes to it. It's the only job they can find, I guess. Why can't they find any other jobs?

“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Would your father have supported you going and having a meeting with those guys?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519

This world you guys are in... words matter, technicalities, right? Right. So for you, John, is it the fact that you went and met with the feds because you were civilian and had left alive, you didn't feel guilty for meeting with them? Is that how you process it?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Is the outcome of this conviction that I'm listening to you, the last 30, 40 minutes, is this because it's important to you to clear your rep that maybe some are calling you?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519

PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Right. I don't know the guy. He calls me and we go to a nice Italian restaurant. And the next thing we do, I interview him. He asked me to cover his face so it's not shown. Why?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Because he did some maybe... surgeries that he didn't want his face to be seen or whatever made men. Like your father did? He had stories that he said about Nicky Scarfo, right? And then we had Ralph Natalidel there. And then he told his stories. Then we had Frank Collado, no longer with us, the late Frank Collado. And he was part of the Spallatra crew, I believe.

And I think this goes credit to the life, you know, which whatever the orientation is, when you're being indoctrinated in this world, whatever that is, whoever explained the pain of Omerta, they did such a great job selling it.

To the person that's not in this world, we're not in it. We're just watching and it's interesting stories. But there is this pride to say, this is why I had the meeting with Feds. And what is consistent amongst everybody across the board, none of them like them. They all are not fans of the government, and they all feel like the story has been told in a different way.

Don't count my money, James. I'm going to call James. We're going to have a conversation. But this is what I was going to say to you. Here's what I was going to say to you. You know... You said something about, you know, you're blue, independent. I've been a registered independent for 17 years. I like Clinton. I voted for him. I like Trump. I voted for him. I fought for him.

I think he's the right guy right now for America where we are. Love him or hate him. I don't care where you are. It's my position. I'm not saying you love him or hate him. I'm talking to the audience. But that's a part of it, why we have something in America, which is fantastic, which is called debate. And the reason why I bring this up is if I'm watching, like the way I watch interviews, John,
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
is when a conversation is taking place, I'm saying, ask this. Ask this. This is my question. I'm the audience. Ask me the question I want to ask. The question I would ask is the following. I think the question fans will want to ask. If you're willing to meet with the Feds for 40 minutes, why don't you meet with Sammy? By the way, Sammy also doesn't want to do it. I can't.

He was not complimentary at all with Sammy the Bull Gravano, and Sammy and I have done many podcasts together, Mafia States of America. I told him about some of the questions. Hey...

So the history of America is filled with a lot of different last names. If your name is Kennedy, you know you're going to be tied to the Kennedy family. You got Trump's, you got Bush, you got Rockefeller. But when it comes down to this last name and first name, you know where it goes. And it's John Gotti. And today, after I think six years of us trying to do this interview. Seven.

Frankie's room is still the same.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Is it when that took place, and I'm wondering, like, is that what got... Did anything about his temperament, rage, anything change? And I've read a lot of different things about the story of the individual. Was it intentional? Was it accidental? Did you ever get to the bottom of what this accident... You know, I don't know all the particulars...
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Is it seven years? Seven years. We're finally doing this, John.

This is a miracle. At the fight. At my son Johnny's fight. At the fight. That's right. Good memory. Yes, at the fight. His pro debut. I remember that. And I had something going, I don't know what it was. I'm like, he was talking to Chris, but it's great to have you here.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
So the speculation is that it may have been somebody, like he may have been directly involved in him being missing four months later.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Not surprised.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
What did you that I heard you say something. You said something about if you were a prosecutor, if you were a cop, you know, what did he love? What did he fear? What did he hate?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
It's great to have you. It's an honor. Yes, likewise. And you know, for me, when I accidentally got into this world of interviewing, you know, the world and different folks, And it was always, Pat, you got to get John. You got to get John. You got to get John. I'm like, look, we got to figure out a way to make this work. And I'm glad we finally did.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Yeah, that's, and by the way, while you were there, at the peak of your father's popularity, where he can't walk anywhere, who else at this time is, who else are the kings of New York at the time? Would you put Trump at that level or not yet? Trump, I mean, 80s, he is already, right? He's established.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I got so many things I want to talk to you about. I mean, your history, family, things that are going on today. Things that are going on both politically, how some things are legal today that used to be illegal, where some of the stuff that the life was doing. But starters, just very basic question before we get into the story. John, how much of the life still exists today?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Yeah, there was a story I think Sammy did. Sammy DiBolli says, we tried to buy him out and we couldn't do it. He turned us down and- Well, I could tell you this much.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
For sure, yeah.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Many times. Some say just happened.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Like, are they still acting like active gangsters, mobsters in America? You know, I'm so far removed.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Now, when you're talking, you know this? You and your mother, you know this?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
What was the name?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Can I ask you a question? So for me, when I did that interview, I go to New York all the time. I love New York. I love the people. I get along with the people. And later on in life, when I did Ancestry, when you find out what your background's all about, apparently I'm 18% Italian. Someone in my family hooked up with an Italian we don't know about, right? So I've always gotten along with Italians.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I go to New York and you have to, you would be like, how could you interview Sammy? He is lying. He's this, he's that. And then I would have some guys that would come up to me and say, but look, you heard the recording, you know, recording when John kind of threw Sammy under the bus. And what I'm saying to you is in the recording. So Sammy- John should have killed Sammy, quite frankly.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
What happened to Frankie and what influence did that have on your father?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Well, that's what Sammy said he thought he was going to kill him.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
This is Mikey Scars or no?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Who sang this, Sammy?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
John, let me, is it fair to say, you know, for the audience that's watching this, Rightfully so. You have to defend 100% your father, nothing, you know, so emotionally. And always will. And by the way, no one expects anything different, right? Right, right. Now, you know, for the viewer who is not emotionally connected, like I remember when I interviewed Sammy, your sister came after me.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I don't know if you remember the, you know, I've never watched the interview. Okay, well, I'll tell you.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I don't do it. Well, I think that's good for you because it's more peaceful. I just don't do it. But, I mean, I got tweets after tweets. You realize what, you know, all this stuff. And I'm like, okay, messages, phone calls, all this stuff. But for somebody that's not attached to it emotionally, did you ever listen to the recording? You know, the recording that they say where your father is.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I have them.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Tony Provenzano?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah. Did Gravano tell you how he became a rat? You would never call him that to his face. Sammy said, once a mafioso, you're a mafioso for life. Is he still a mafioso, he thinks?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Wait, what do you mean by that?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
So you know what it does. Like in life, I get judged for who I befriend. I get judged for who I marry. We get judged for choices we make, investments, all this other stuff. But then you also get judged for who you make your right-hand guy. Your dad made him the underboss.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
So if he is who you say he is, Sam, that means your dad's a bad judge of character because the underboss is like... I mean, it's who John, wasn't John that too, who was the underboss with Paul Castellano before, you know, he was taken out of state?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Do you think the situation where he put a hit on Paul Castellano, you think that was the right move? You said two bad moves, right? Gambling, and you said Sammy. But how about the hit on Paul?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I've seen both movies.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Wait, you're saying now that Your father didn't tell Sammy to go do the job to take out Paul?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
That's a very interesting twist right there. It is. For me, this stuff, I understand the emotional stuff that when it's blood, it's blood. And not just blood, admiration for father. You're not going to be able to... I adore my father. That's exactly the point. So there's no winning there. But at the same time... You get judged for hiring him. You get judged for promoting him.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
And I would assume when it comes later on, like let's just say if you got the job of being a boss by taking out your boss, let's just say if that's the story that we see in the world,
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
What I'm saying is, you know, for what's been documented and the people you sit down and talk to who were maybe in that world where they were that age, I've sat with a lot of different people who are older, would come to me, you know, Ralph Natale and Philly and Nettie and Francise, and I had a chance.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
to one time, I had three visits with Sonny Francis, Michael's father, who did, I think, 55 years in jail. I think he died at 103 or 104 years.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
That's what everybody says. Like, he was a guy that was, Omerta was like the face of Omerta. He would not break four.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
I took him to an Italian restaurant. And John, I got to tell you, I'm trying to get him to say, Sonny, I'm his driver. I'm driving him to his favorite Italian restaurant. I came and got him from the old, I think it's like an old folks home. And Michael's there and we're going out. His lawyer's there. I don't know what we went to. I can figure out the name to see where it was.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
But we went there for three hours, nothing. When I tell you nothing, John. Did he say anything? No, he spoke. Oh, okay. But I told him, tell me about Meyer. Good guy. Tell me about Bugsy. You would never call him that to his face. I'm sorry. He's Mr. Siegel to you. Tell me about this. Tell me about that, right?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
But in the world, if you come up fast in the limelight and showmanship and all this stuff, You know, like the movie, American Gangster, which is a story of Frank Lucas, where, you know, Denzel is like, hey, why'd you give me that jacket? I don't want to be seen. I don't want to have this, right? And sometimes, you know, the criticism is the fact that he was seen all the time.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
So he was, in my mind, when I'm asking Sammy, Was he at a point that he's worried that Sammy's about to take him out to do to him what he may have done to Paul? Listen. That was my understanding.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Do you think... I remember one time, Sammy and I were speaking, and the story was about the fact that, you know, when... Let's just say you're running a business.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
And, you know... I'm the guy that's not golfing six days a week. And I'm not even saying that's just an analogy. So I'm a guy that I started a company. I'm rich now. I'm worth 50 million. I'm golfing six days a week. I'm going to the spa. Maybe I'll come and check out the office and all this stuff. But my right-hand guy is the one that goes and checks on everybody. He's there every day.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
And he's at the office six days a week. Now the crew, the field, the customers, the clients are closer to him than they're closer to the one at the top that's the famous guy. Do you think something like that happened with Sammy and your father? You know what I'm saying? The shaking hands.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Was it risky beating him or no? No. Like if you beat him, he'd pay you and he wouldn't be upset.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
350 and 83 is 1.1 million today. That's a lot of money. Think about that. That's a lot of money. Think about that. So going back to New York City, you've been there since 64. The only place you've ever lived is New York, minus being out, right?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519

Why?
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519

“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
You're gonna think I'm crazy when I tell you this, but the last 13 and a half years, I've been working on my first fiction book to write ever, fiction book to write.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
And while I finished this book a year ago, I got the strangest phone call about one of the characters in a book where the guy wanted to meet with me and he read the book and afterwards was like, wait a minute, am I the villain in the book? This is a story about a character named Asher, who is half Armenian, half Assyrian, whose father was involved
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
in the Iranian revolution linked to Savak working with the Shah that they escape and he gets recruited to a secret society. Well, when you go to the secret society, it's been around for a couple thousand years, they've developed some of the craziest leaders of all time and they test you. There's unique tests that they have at the society where they test to see your emotional mental toughness.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
One of the tests that they have is very rigorous. It's purely mental. Of course, there's a physical one, but one is mental and emotional. If you're Armenian, if you're Syrian, if you're Persian, this is a book you're gonna be reading and saying, holy moly, this is the kind of stuff you talk about in here? Yes. If you're somebody that's fascinated by history, this is a book for you.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Characters, there's a technology that this society, secret society builds, where you go into a vault, I won't spoil it for you, when you go down, They have a technology where you get to sit down and watch and have a three, four hour conversation with Tupac. You can set up a debate between Karl Marx and Ayn Rand. Karl Marx is in the book who wrote Communist Manifesto.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
Ayn Rand who wrote Atlas Shrugged is in the book. Marilyn Monroe explains the concept of seduction and sex in the book. When you read the book, It's about development of the next leaders in the world and how they do it and how they've been doing it for many years. And it's also about how to prevent the end of civilization and how this organization goes about doing it.

“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
So I've never written a parenting book before, but if I ever wrote a parenting book, this is the closest thing to it because it's all mindset. A lot of crazy stories. Again, 13 and a half years. Trust me, I told myself I will not publish this book. until I sell my insurance company and I'm fully disconnected from it, where it's no longer my responsibility 100%.

PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519

They're brilliant. Brilliant, manipulative, deceptive. They're the ultimate gangsters, if you think about what they do. I got two last things I want to talk to you about before we wrap up. One is, story comes out this last week. it could have been two weeks ago, about a story of O.J. Simpson, a guy named John Denton. I don't know if you saw this or not. Police witness.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519
He says a key witness claims O.J. hired Gambino family to kill his wife. Do you know anything about the story or not? That's absurd. Okay, so this one you don't know about.
PBD Podcast
“Should’ve Had Him Killed” - John Gotti Jr Finally OPENS UP On His Father, Gravano & Gambino Family | PBD Podcast | Ep. 519

The future looks bright. A handshake is better than anything I ever saw. It's right here. You are a 101? My son's right there. I don't think I've ever said this before. So Richard Werner, my guest, we were together three years ago, if I'm not mistaken, June of 2022. So it's been almost three years.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the world's markets, I am hereby raising the tariff charge to China... by U.S. to 125% effective immediately. At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S. and other countries is no longer sustainable or acceptable.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Yeah, but the question for me, okay, so who's the biggest loser? So I went, while you're speaking, I'm trying to see what Chad GBT is going to tell me the biggest winners and losers are if they agree to 0% tariffs. Rob, if you're going to pull this up and ask the question, who are the biggest winners and losers if the trade, if the tariff on China and U.S. goes to zero?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Reciprocal tariffs goes to zero. Who are the biggest winners and losers? Here's what it says. Winners. Big U.S. retailers, Walmart, Target, Amazon would benefit from lower import costs. Consumers would see cheaper goods, electronics, clothing, furniture, toys. Lower prices equals lower inflation, more purchasing power if they go to 0% tariffs. U.S.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
tech companies, Apple, Tesla, HP, which manufacture heavily in China, would save on costs and avoid supply chain friction. Tech imports like Qualcomm, Nvidia would expand access to Chinese markets. Okay, I just saw a story about how much an iPhone will be right now based on what it's going to cost. Rob, if you want to pull that story up. This is from five days ago.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
43% increase with what's going on with tariffs. Okay, so that's that. Let me continue. Chinese manufacturers and exporters. With U.S. tariffs gone, Chinese firms... In electronics, machinery, textiles regain full access to U.S. markets because it's cheaper to get exports. Increases China's export momentum. Okay, next. U.S.-Chinese logistics and shipping firms. Global financial markets.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Wall Street would rally on improved U.S.-China relations. Reduce geopolitical risk. Investor optimism. Six. South Asian and global suppliers. These are all great winners. Now let's look at losers. U.S. domestic manufacturers steal aluminum textile furniture. So that means jobs are still going to go over there because it's going to be cheaper labor there. China substitutes. Vietnam, Mexico, India.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Conversely, and based on the fact that more than 75 countries have called representatives of the U.S., including Department of Commerce, Treasury, and the USTR, to negotiate a solution to the subjects being discussed
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
These countries benefited from U.S.-China decoupling, the trade war. So a lot of us started sending business to Vietnam, Mexico, India. They would take it. So they may not want reciprocal tariffs with U.S. and China. U.S. labor unions, which I don't understand these guys. These are the protectionist policymakers. Unions will likely see a betrayal of bring jobs home to bring the jobs here.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Okay, fine. U.S. defense hawks and China skeptics. Companies that relocated from China during trade war. Domestic industries. These are saying who the losers are. For you, I see more positive on doing reciprocal than not doing it. Why isn't China agreeing to do it?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
relative to trade, trade barriers, tariffs and currency manipulation, and non-monetary tariffs, and that these countries have not, at my strong suggestion, retaliated in any way, shape or form against the U.S., I have authorized a 90-day pause. and a substantially lowered reciprocal tariff during this period of 10%, also effective immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
The zero-zero doesn't create the more jobs here, so it doesn't solve for that. Exactly. Okay, so perfect. So then I guess maybe let me ask this question a different way. So let's say we're two vendors, okay? You have a software, I have a software. I have my customers, you have your customers, okay? And there's about 100 people out there, 195 to be exact. These are countries, right?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
195 people that do business with both of us, okay? Out of these 195, let's take the top 40, the ones that matter the most. Germany, Italy, Mexico, Canada, the ones that these are, okay. Which one of those two, if you had to lose one of them, if one threatened you to say, to be with me, you cannot do business with the other guy, Who do they need more?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Meaning, I'm US, you're China. Who do they need more? Who can they not afford to lose? There's a reason why I'm asking this question. I think maybe you know where I'm going with this. Who do you think they need more? Who are they more relied on? Do they rely more on the relationship with US or do they rely more on the relationship with China?

EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
He posts this. Immediately, the market, Rob, if you can go to the market, the market responds accordingly. Go to the one day. The one day ends up being 30%. At 3,000, that was up 3,000, nearly 8% in a single day right after the announcement is made. You can tell that, Rob, if you can do that again, that was great. He makes the announcement there at 37,941, boom.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
There's not even by a little bit, by a lot. Ever since they allowed China to join the World Trade Organization, we sent our manufacturing to them. Even Nancy Pelosi talked about this in 96, right, where she said, you know, we charge 2%, they charge 35%. Our 2% made us 170,000 jobs. Their 35% made them 10 million jobs. Do you have that clip? Have you seen this clip? This right here.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
I don't know if you've seen this. This is Nancy Pelosi. It's quite dramatic, isn't it? Yeah, but it's true.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
This is back in the days when she was a nationalist. Today she's more of a globalist. She's changed teams because she's about the world. She's no longer about what it was about our economy. So the question, okay, going back to it, who Do they rely on more? Labor, China used to have the cheapest labor, where it used to be 20 cents to 50 cents an hour pre-joining the World Trade Organization.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
At that time, 2001, minimum wage in America was 5.15. So it was, let's just say it's 25 cents. It was 20 times cheaper to do it there than to do it here. Now, labor is not that big of a difference, China versus here.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Matter of fact, there's an article that came up about Hafizan in Mexico, that China's building Hafizan in Mexico with their BV, whatever that car is that they're doing, the BVD, BVA something. What's it called, Rob? BYD. BYD. Build Your Dreams. Build Your Dreams for $9,600. They're building it in Mexico because labor is now cheaper in Mexico than it's in China.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
The rest of the day ends up being nearly 3,000 today. So for you, with this back and forth, this is your world. This is what you do as an economist and somebody that's watched the quantitative easing and now we're doing a little bit of quantitative tightening that's going on. We'll show that as well. What do you think is going on here? Is this good news? Is this over with?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So they're kind of getting competition with labor that's going different places, right? I asked a question about how the other 195 countries, which one of us do they need more, is because if you remember what Trump did to Huawei, where he told everyone in the States and he told everyone in China, if you do business with Iran, I'm putting sanctions, you're done with us.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So Iran wanted to do business with Huawei, the CFO, which was the daughter of the CEO, was in Canada doing a deal with Iran. If you remember that, he said, we're done with Huawei, done deal. Was this the Trump administration hits China's Huawei with a one-two punch? This was in 2019, six years ago. So Trump's got the reputation to show that I'm going to go hard with this.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
What if Trump calls all the partners that say, hey, guys, here's what I need you to do. I need you to not do business with China for three months. And if you do this, I'll give you zero tariffs for the next three months. What if he puts that kind of pressure? Because he's capable of saying something like that. He's now somebody that's going to be worried about it.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
What if he says something like that? What if he says, I will give you, to save you money, 0% tariffs for whatever, 12 months, six months. But in return, you have to tell me that you're not going to do business with China for 90 days. What if he does something like that?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Is China going to come to the table? What do you think?

PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
It's over-regulation.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
They fall behind. It's so funny when you're hearing this now. This is what Sowell and Milton Friedman used to talk about. I remember Gordon Chen, when he once came on the podcast, we talked about what China was lacking. China was lacking law schools. They used to only have four law schools like 50 years ago, 60 years ago.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So when it comes down to competition, business owners didn't trust the fact that it was such a thing as law and order. So contracts and agreements would be kept. So the moment China started, you know, Building law schools and students became lawyers. There was actually law and order. There was trust.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So if I know it's no longer a handshake, you have to commit and abide by the agreement that we came up. And that's a very different conversation than banks, but it's a similar angle that we're talking about here. I just went on the process here just to look at how long – Rob, can you pull up what does it take to become a bank in the U.S.? Okay. Okay. What does it take to become a bank in the U.S.?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Just out of curiosity, how much work does it take?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
First, decide what type of bank you want to create. National, state, charter, credit union, industry loan. Then submit a bank charter application at the federal and the state level, which includes business plan, proposed name, cap structure, risk management, market analysis. Number three... Meet capital requirements, $10 or $30 million to be a tier one. Number four, apply to FDIC insurance.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Number five, build a strong management team. Fit and proper criteria. Okay, cool. Number six, set up core operations. Got it. Number seven, undergo on-site examination by regulators to come and visit you and view. Receive final approval and launch once approved. This could take three years. But you're saying we haven't done one in a while in America?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Okay, so go back to Trump and go back to Trump and go back to the gentleman we talked about earlier, Deng, what was his last name?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Deng Xiaoping. Deng Xiaoping. I went and looked up to see his relationship with Xi, how Xi views him. Does he respect him? Does he not respect him? Does he admire him? Like, is there a level of admiration? Because if there is, maybe that's a good thing for Trump, right? That's an opening for somebody, somebody to go and negotiate the deal.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
And he says, Xi gave high regards to him on the 120th anniversary of Deng's birthday, August 2024, which was a little less than a year ago, right? And he referred to him as an outstanding leader with high prestige, recognized by the whole party, the whole army, and the people of all ethnic groups in the country, and a great Marxist who made great contributions to a world peace and development.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
This is what he said. However, despite this admiration, he's marked a departure from his approach. Deng emphasized economic reforms and a more collective leadership style, while Xi has consolidated power and reasserted the Communist Party's control over various aspects of Chinese society.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
And we had a great conversation last time. The nickname you have is the father of quantitative easing. And when we spoke, it was all economy, all data, all Fed, all interest rates. All of that. And today, the timing of it was so perfect where Rob and Tony were talking like, hey, Richard Warner's in town.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Analysts note that Xi has moved away from Deng's low-profile foreign policy, adopting more assertive initiatives to reshape the global order. So, this is not Deng. So it's not like Trump can go to China, sit down, have a conversation with him, or invite him here and say, let's figure something out. What does Trump do today? I understand what you're saying with the banks. We need more banks.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
We're down to 4,000. We used to have 14,000. Yes, get that. But right now, they're in the tariff. Right now, it's the trade war that they're having. What should he and his administration do now? Do you have any suggestions or any ideas?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So you want number one to cave to number two?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
But it is though.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So what's an ideal situation?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
But you have to, though, because they've been bullying. They've been controlling. They've been coming up and they've been doing things that a lot of people in America don't feel comfortable with. They've been buying properties right next to our military units. They've been buying up land all over the place. They've been doing certain things where we're sitting there saying, what is your motive?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
What are you trying to do long term? Is this closely, slowly going up through Mexico and other places? What are you trying to do long term? So it makes a lot of people in America feel uncomfortable.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
I'm convinced Trump wants to diffuse it. I don't. A hundred percent. I'm convinced Trump wants to defuse it.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
I 100%, I'm not him, but I'm convinced he absolutely wants to defuse it. But I think the part that needs to be clear in a situation like this is, hey, you've gained more from us than we've gained from you over the years. And I understand that's probably not where you're going to go, but Trump, to him, he's not going to change from that. Even that one time when he had Netanyahu there,
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
up on the podium and everybody is thinking, oh, he's going to say this, he's going to say that. He doesn't even want Netanyahu to sometimes think he's got full control. He said, yeah, we're thinking about what if we, the U.S., buys Gaza.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
And then Netanyahu goes like this, like, wait, what did you just say? He threw him off because you have to kind of throw off sometimes because even your allies sometimes will take advantage of you because they feel behind closers. They own you. You can't do that. This is America. I want a leader like him to lead. And FYI, I just had a curiosity for my own reasons.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
How much do you think these two ports, the one that BlackRock is buying from C.K. Hutchinson, the 43 ports they're buying, but the two main ones in Panama, do you think that's going to go through?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
You think that deal will get finalized? Right now there's a lawsuit saying that CK is breaking some contract laws, we're taking too much time. Only reason I'm saying this is because this is leverage. If US controls those two ports, we also have a little bit of leverage here.

PBD Podcast

So when you look at the two here, back and forth, 84, 104, 125, who do you think can tolerate this pain long enough until the other has to cave?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
I said, we absolutely must do something because everyone's so concerned with what's going on today with the economy, tariffs, especially with the big announcement that Trump made. So it's great to have you back on the podcast.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Anytime. So do you mind if I get right into it?
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So here's the news. So first, this morning, we get word that China announces 84% tariff on U.S. goods in showdown with Trump, okay? And Europe also hits back. You'll obviously give a little bit more intel on this. Then the president, do you have the Europe one here as well, Rob, or no? Let me see on the story you were just on.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
What are we stronger in? We have the best customer base. We have the best buyer base. I just looked up right now China's top 10 biggest trade partners. Number one is U.S., roughly $600 billion. Hong Kong, $297 billion. Japan, $308 billion. South Korea, $328 billion. These are big numbers. Vietnam, $260 billion. Germany, $202 billion.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
Netherlands 110, India 138, Malaysia 212, and Russia 245, right? So it's not like U.S. is 50% of the trade. It's not, okay? How much total trade does China do in 2024? How much was their total trade? What was China's... Total trade in 2024, China, 6.1 trillion. Okay, of the 6.1, so if you divide five, what was the number I said, 582, I mean, it's 9%, right? 582 divided by 61.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So if we do 582 divided by 61, 9.5%. Still a big number, but it's not 25, 40%. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
If you can go a little bit lower, let's see what Europe's is. The European Union announced it would begin collecting retaliatory duties on U.S. imports starting Tuesday. Okay. All right. And that's fine. So now if you go back to Trump's tweet, here's what Trump puts on Truth Social. And this is as of two and a half hours ago, three hours ago.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So maybe check, Rob, what percent of China's export is U.S.? What percentage... what percentage of China's export is U.S.? Yeah, yeah, 15%.
PBD Podcast
EMERGENCY PODCAST: USA vs China Trade War w/ Richard Werner | PBD Podcast | Ep. 574
So total is 9.5% aggregate, but just export is 15%. 15%, if I lose, because here's the thing, if China does, let's actually do this, and maybe this is the better question. So, for example, if China agrees and say, you know what? Reciprocal tariff zero. We're not going to put any on you. You put nothing on us. If that was to be agreed upon, who loses more and who wins more?

And while you're doing your job, you hear the phrase signal versus noise, right? Focus on the job. Focus on signal, noise. What's going on with the family? What's going on with the wife? What's going on with the kids? I'm gone nine months. What happened here? What are they doing over there? What are you doing?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
To be a SEAL and to do what you guys do, how do you stay locked in to not allow the noise to rattle you? Because in that moment, while you're supposed to stay focused, you're thinking about something else. How do you mentally get yourself in a state where you stay focused on the mission?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Is that what they tell you to shape your mindset that way? Or is that like a cultural thing? Is that what it takes?

PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I guess my question becomes, my question is, do they recruit guys who are already like that? Or do you come in and after you make it through BUD, the training, everything that they have, then you become this person? Which one is it? Is it finding? The person in identifying, I said, this guy has what it takes, or is it, no, we're going to shape your mindset into this?

Have you ever been on a mission where one of your peers maybe was getting distracted and allowing the noise to get to them? How did the team handle it when someone went there?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Wow.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
How common is that? Pretty common. So sometimes if they put a guy in a training slot, it's not a favor. It's not a promotion. They're putting you there because you're going through something like, look, go handle your stuff in personal life. Then when you're ready, come back to it as well.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
So how do you view that? Let's just say I go through that and I'm put there. For me to come back and there's four of you and I'm the fifth one coming in, are you guys a little bit worried whether I've changed or not or I still have some of the old tendencies? Or no, you allow me to show up and represent and show you guys that I have changed. How does that work?

All right, listen, we're getting started. We started off with, you know, when you're around military guys, they're typically shit talkers, jokes, prank the whole night.

due to an injury, due to whatever that happened, due to on a mission, so slowing somebody down. So that would be enough. But that part to me makes sense still, right? It's like sports. Hey, you're not giving your best right now. Go do the surgery. I don't want to do the Tommy John surgery. Look, you got to do it. You're going to sit down a season or Achilles, whatever that happens.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I can see that part. But the noise versus signal, there is not a formula. Like is there a formula or are you just something you do?

Like if you were to talk to right now 100 corporate executives that are money managers who have a billion dollars under management, they're going on the road all the time, they're traveling here, traveling, they're going meeting with this client, meeting with that client, and they have the wife and the kids and all that stuff and say, hey, man, guys, I'd love for you to give me a formula on how to stay locked in.

I want to find a way to get locked in. I'm a performer. I work my ass off, but I got a wife and two kids. How do I stay locked in so when I go into that meeting to negotiate a deal and roll over that money, I'm going to get it? What would you say to me?

It's so funny when you're going through this stuff. When you're in it, it's so interesting watching how everybody handles it. With business, you're coming up, you size everybody up.

He's more mentally tough than him. That's such an interest. No way in the world I thought it.

He says, you know, you remember that scene where it's like, hey, lock it up. Like, get in place. And he was panicking. He was worried. Sometimes you're never going to know until you're in that situation to see if they got it or not. But you talk about communication. So... Yesterday we get word, and I want to get your thoughts on this. Yesterday's story comes out, Rob, if you want to pull this up.

The whole signal gate, whatever they want to call it, right? The signal chat with Pete Hexett. Pentagon Inspector General opens investigation into Hexett. Signal chat scandal.

Trump fired six national security staffers after meeting with far-right activist Laura Loomer. This is with The Guardian. Trump ally presented with the opposition research against a number of officials. That's it. She followed their disloyalty. Can you go a little bit lower, Rob, to see who it was? Fired six national security staffers.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
The fire encompassed four staffers who were fired overnight after the meeting and two who were removed over the weekend. Created an extraordinary situation. Uh, Loomer appeared to have more influence than the national security advisor, Mike Waltz. Okay. So now this is what they're going through with communication.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Mike Waltz is creating a group chat on signal where they're communicating about a decision that's being made. And then accidentally the individual that gets added to the chat, Rob is somebody from Jeffrey Goldberg from the Atlantic, from the Atlantic. He gets into it, uh, Accidentally he's in it. Some are saying the way that it happened, it is what it is. For you guys, you're out there.

How are you communicating yourself? What apps were you using when you're communicating? What apps are being used today? And maybe what different angle do you guys have here that maybe we're not looking at?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
No, for sure not knowingly. To me, it's more, one, how it happened, two, Do I trust signal? Three, if a mistake like that happens that could lead to something with the enemy finding out before we're doing something, that's massively problematic, right? And what should the punishments for something like this happen?

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Like if that happened in Bud's, is there a high level of, not Bud's, if that happens, you're sealed, you're out there, you're talking to each other, you accidentally add somebody else that gets leaked to the market. One, did it ever happen? And two, if it does, how do they handle that?

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
What did you guys do when you're being added to group chat? Especially nowadays, would they train you to say, anytime you're being added to this, first look at this and look at that and look at this? Because right now, email's for us. Guy sends an email. One of our guys responds. This literally happened two weeks ago. That person wired $100,000 to somebody that was fraud. This just happened.

We just lost $100,000. We're never going to get this $100,000 back. This happened two weeks ago. Why? Here's the email. It looks like a legit email. Change the password. They log in. Boom, boom, boom. $100,000 out. Two or three weeks ago, this happened to us, right? So these types of things happen and you train. When you're getting an email, when somebody says this, actually check the email.

Well, depending on what it is, you definitely get fired. So in a situation like this, somebody's getting fired. Yeah. I mean, something like that, heads are going to roll.

Yeah. Yeah? Okay. So I got a list of topics. One of the ones that really, you know, up till today I have a hard time with is the following. I want to see what you guys are going to be saying about this. So do you remember where you were when we heard that Osama bin Laden was caught? You know, he was killed. I think it was, if I'm not mistaken, Robert O'Neill is the story that we always hear about.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
We've all seen the podcast. We've seen the stories. May 2nd, 2011, and then we hear the story that the body's being dumped in the middle of the ocean.

So what do you think about when we are told that Osama bin Laden's body is dumped in the middle of the ocean at Northern Arabian Sea?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573

You feel pretty confident about this one? Yeah, she's actually outlasted both of them combined. Really? So what is it with that, by the way? You know, my friend was, when I was in the Army, I wanted to go, I interviewed at 18 Delta, to be in 18 Delta at Fifth Group. at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, and I wanted to go to Sears and go to DLI because I spoke five languages.

So they said, you're going to go to Fort Ord. That's where the DLI was back in the days. They called it, what was it called? The Planet or something like that, right? I think it was in Carmel. And so the orders come back. I decide to get out. He gets the orders. He leaves. He ends up becoming Delta for 12 years, loves it, the operations, all this stuff. I don't talk to him for many years.

I wonder how united, because when I was part of this one insurance company, nearly half the company, they were Mormons. And they were so united. It was so amazing watching how united they were. And sometimes in a Christian community, you would see kind of Christians kind of take shots at each other. And of course, Mormons are an element of being Christians, but non-denominational.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
You would see Mormons, they were like this. And one day, this is when I realized these guys have issues in a both positive way and a crazy way. One day a guy comes out, this lady says, the best movie of all time just came out. The guy's going to win an Oscar. I said, really? This guy's going to win an Oscar? He's going to win an Oscar. Who is this guy? This movie came out called Napoleon Dynamite.

I'm like, Napoleon Dynamite? Yeah. This may be the greatest movie I've ever seen in my life. She's saying this to me. And I'm a movie guy. So I said, listen, you better have credibility with movies. I'm going to go watch this movie. I'll go watch this movie. It's the worst movie I've seen in my life. And I'm like, I come back the next day and I said, can I ask you what was unique about this movie?

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
This movie was horrible. What was so special about it? Oh, what are you talking about? He's going to win an Oscar. Later on that afternoon, somebody told me the main actor is a Mormon. I'm like, okay, I got it. So you guys are supporting each other. I can respect that. Hey, this is the movie, this is that. So is that the vibe in The Seals?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573

2019. So Bush, Obama, Trump. Was there a, in, I was an E4. So for us, it was just, I'm a regular enlisted guy. You know, I was in when some guys, you see how they feel about the president. Well, he's there, he supports us, he's this, he's that. And you see recruiting going up and down and all this other stuff. And sometimes you see raises being given.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I think at one point under Obama, like the enlisted got a raise of 1% over like four, five, six years. There wasn't a big raise that was being given. But for you guys, specific to SEALs, do you care who's president? Does it impact you at all? Or because of the unique position you guys are at, where there's only a few of you, Obama, you know, president left, right, center, doesn't matter.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
We have a mission. We're going to go get our job done. We're not affected by the president. Is that kind of how it is with SEALs?

The way it was presented that was solved, Was it like, yeah, I made a phone call. I spoke to him. Did he publicly say how he solved it or no? This was all behind. So this is not even anything that publicly has been disclosed. Yeah. I mean, we don't even get a phone call.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Was he your commander at the time? The chief at the time? Okay, no. So he got out in 2024, no, 92 to 2014. So no, he wouldn't have been in. I thought he was 92 to 2014, 22 years and a month, I think. Yeah, he wouldn't have been in. He got out 2014, 22 years and a month, yeah. So, okay, interesting. So... Today, what we're seeing right now, right?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
And maybe let me go while we're still on that topic there. Ghassan Soleimani, do you guys remember Ghassan Soleimani? And when that happened, that was a... Were you guys part of that at all or no? Do you guys know a friend? Okay. So you obviously have peers that were part of this who were on this mission. This was a crazy one. No? I mean, this was a January 3rd, 2020.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
We take out Ghassan Soleimani, who is the guy who manages all the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. He's the guy that's dealing with all the proxies. He's the guy that's dealing with Houthis, with Hezbollah, with all those things. And he could potentially be the guy that's running Iran. When this happened, were you guys like, holy shit? This could turn into something?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Or was it like, okay, this is a statement. Knock it off. Stop. Don't do anything. And if you do, this is what the U.S. is capable of doing.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
So, you know, I lived in Iran almost 11 years. So I was born in 78. We left July 15th of 89, went to Germany at a refugee camp, and then we came here. But I live there, so I know the environment, the climate, how it is. And when you're in business, you have enemies. You have a lot of competitors. And you have to know whose threats are real threats and whose threats are just, you know, hot air.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I'm going to do this to you. You're going to do nothing. But if that guy says, I'm going to do something to you, you're like, hey, listen, we have to pay attention to this. You guys sit there all day, watch tape of who the enemies are. You study Iran. You study what happened with Yemen. You study what happened with Gaddafi or Saddam Hussein or Putin. That's the business model. I'm assuming.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I'm just speculating. I'm not in it. That's your world. And... Do you guys talk about, yeah, those guys are not going to do nothing to us. Their threats mean nothing. Or to say, no, when that guy says that, listen, we have to really be ready that they're capable of doing something. How did you guys, 17 years, you're tier one, how do you view when Iran makes threats?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
From different countries or, okay. So you're saying like a more of a united front of a CIA, Mossad, MI6 than it was before? Yeah. Or you're saying more at your level?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
So. When you say that, like you guys, do you see Delta as a team? Do you see 18 Deltas as a team? Do you see Delta Force as a team? Do you guys see each other as equals? You do. So, okay. Was it more competitive pre-9-11? Or was it a little bit more lax? And now it's like, listen, no one's going to ever do a 9-11 again under our watch.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Let me ask you, so has... Because technology's advanced on all levels, right? So the way they did 9-11... You know, and now afterwards, like, whoa, no, it's not going to happen again. What do we make a mistake? Boom, communications. Okay, great. So we knew we had signs. Yes, we knew. Okay. Airport. Who was able to get in? The enemy.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
their technology is advanced as much as us, our technology is advanced, right? Is it easier for the enemy to, the level of advancement to be able to conduct another 9-11 in a more creative way, has that advanced more than our ability to prevent it from happening? What do you think has advanced more?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
So which one are we, though? Are we the one that's trained and improved without anybody seeing it, or is that the enemy? Both. Okay. So that's a little bit intense.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
There's a community that said, hey, you know, Trump, his first four years when he was president, there was no wars. ISIS was gone. You know, a bunch of different progress that took place. And if Biden comes in, Ukraine, Russia, you know, you got Israel, Hamas, all these things that are taking place all over the place. Now Trump is in. Day one, peace, you know, deal between Ukraine and Russia.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Day one, we're going to have Iran, Israel is going to be done. That's not going to happen. Hamas, boom. Okay, great. Now it's a slightly different energy. If you do this, we're going to do this, okay? And you better release the hostages. They don't. You better release the hostages. They don't. You better release the hostages. They don't. What is your position?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Because some are saying, I'm a fully anti-war. If Trump, I swear to God, if Trump goes out and we go to war, I'll be the first one to come out and say that I make the biggest regret of my life ever to vote for Trump and I should have never done it. We cannot be going to war and we're getting closer to war. What's your position with that? He's putting it on you, Cole.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
What do you think?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
When you're in it and they're given a mission, they're not explaining why. They're just saying, here's the mission, go. For you, we're going to go take out Hassan Soleimani. We're going to go take out Osama bin Laden. Does the chief, does the leader sit there and say, here's why we're doing it, because of this, this, this, this, that, or no?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Guys, get ready, we're leaving at 1800, we're leaving at this. Is that how it's communicated? Or do you guys ask the question, why are we doing this?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
And then when they do say why... Are there side conversations saying, I don't know why we're doing this, it's not even worth it? Or no, it's like, no, we're locked in, let's go.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Got it. You said something earlier. You said, at times I felt like we were being used. What did you mean by that? You mean the U.S. ? Yeah, you said sometimes I feel like we're being used by other countries.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Are you talking kind of like Ukraine?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I don't think so at all. Yeah, no, I think, no, I don't think so. Now, well, you kind of said it's not the negotiation now. Now he says, give me the hostage, give me the hostage, give me the hostage. You don't do anything. It's like Putin when he's being said, if you guys do this, I have a nuclear weapon to use. Because Putin's the last few years has threatened nuclear weapons.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
He's gone straight up and said that, right? That's a pretty big threat. And you said take every threat seriously, right? So what I said a few times, I'm like, dude, you can't keep threatening and not doing anything. Either don't make the threat, or if you do, be ready that if they don't back down to your threat, you have to actually execute the threat. So use your threats accordingly.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
You don't want to be threatened every month. You lose the power of the threat. So I feel like what happened with Putin, kind of Trump's been put in that situation right now a little bit with Hamas and the hostages and Israel, which, you know, The slippery slope, he said something. You said about the phone calls.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
You don't know what he says on the phone calls, but whatever he says, he gets them to do something. Who knows what those phone calls are about? Who would love to be on those phone calls just to hear what he says?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I bet he's saying, I'm just going to play golf. Can you imagine a purely fun conversation that's not even like eight? Hey, listen, I swear to God, if you do anything, your golf memberships are done permanently. Never again. Mar-a-Lago, done. The meatballs will suck. We're going to give you two-week-old meatballs. He's doing something. He's saying something on that phone that is scaring him.

I kind of love that, man. I'm in the Army. First time I'm like, I joined the Army for the GI Bill originally. None of my parents were from Iran. So it's not like I went because my dad was a 99-cent store cashier. So it's not like I'm going because of that. You go in and I joined April 15th, give or take, whatever the dates were.

I go to, what do you call it, before you go to boot camp, that one week where you get the vaccination, the air gun vaccinations, you get a scab, all that stuff. You go MEPS, is it MEPS? I think it's MEPS. And you get to the unit, and then you're in boot camp, and then Memorial Day, whatever is end of May. Memorial Day, yes. So Memorial Day happens, and there's a ceremony.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
And I look at these guys who are decorated, uniform, everything, in tear stent, guys that are tough. And they're standing like this, and you just see tears. I'm like, whoa.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573

So for me, if I'm the chief of, you know, put me as the, you know, Sergeant Major of the Army, you know, Sergeant Major of whatever, Navy, whatever that position is, or the four-star general, whatever this is, Are my enemies to worry about officially governments that I have to worry about?

They're going to be able to have a million robots that they can build and deploy. How do we regulate them? What new threats are we going to have 5, 10, 15, 20 years from now? where that could be taking place. Do you guys talk about that? And when you went for those 17 years, at what level were those conversations coming up?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
It was, no, it's just more, here's what China's doing, here's what Russia's doing, here's what this is doing. What were those conversations like?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
So do I. I think it's about to change. And yeah, because to me, the PMC side, I kind of support, right? Because you need more competition, which is good. You need like private military contractors. Now, if the PMC is deploying business to our enemies and us, it's kind of weird. Conflict of interest. So then I have a problem with that.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
So you're sending 88 former military whatever guys to help Russia and to help Ukraine and to help this. So then do you sign NDAs and say, we'll do this $238 million contract with you, but you can't do with my enemy Russia for the next three years? Is that kind of how the deals are going to get done? Hey, free market. We're selling cars. I'm going to sell robots. Guess what?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Russia wants to buy a million robots from us. This person wants to buy two million robots from us. Now there's robots that travel. Now there's robots that fly. Now one guy comes in, battery ends, drops. Six people die. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Again, everything is about anticipating a future war.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I wonder how much of us... I want to believe that our military is already ready for the 2045 war, not the 2025 war. I want to believe that. Do you believe we are working towards that, or you guys are in it? What do you think?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
How certain are we of that?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Rob, can you pull that up? Can you just search it and see? Got to ask ChatGBT. You said Lockheed Martin, right? If Lockheed Martin sells F-35s to us versus what country do we want to say? Russia? No, they don't sell to Russia. Versus who?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Give a country. Anything. Versus? U.K. ? UK, how different are the models or are they identical? Great question. F-35 is designed to be multi-stellar variants. There are notable differences between the Lockheed Martin cells in the U.S. and the U.K. So the variants are three things. F-35 conventional takeoff C-12 used by U.S. Air Force. F-35B short takeoff vertical landing used by U.S.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Marine Corps. U.K. Royal Navy and Air Force. F-35C carrier-based version used by the U.S. Navy. U.S. models are F-35A Air Force, F-35B Marines, F-35C Navy. They also receive top-tier hardware software, full access to mission data files, proprietary electronic warfare, unrestricted access to source codes, to deeper integration, full control over weapons. The U.K.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
models use excessively F-35 variant. Queen Elizabeth Council, it's the only Tier 1 partner in F-35 program and has... Okay, can you ask the follow-up question and say, which countries does Lockheed Martin not sell F-35s to? Lockheed Martin not sell F-35s to. F-35s to, yeah. Let's see what it says. I'm actually curious now. If the U.S.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
government gets involved, Lockheed Martin does not sell F-35 to several countries primarily due to U.S. exports, geopolitical concerns, lack of alignment. Countries not allowed. Russia, obvious conflict. China, okay, good. Iran. North Korea, all four make sense. Syria, Cuba, makes sense. Venezuela, makes sense. Turkey, interesting. That's got to be recent.
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Was a partner but kicked out of the program in 2019 for purchasing the Russian S-400 missile system seen as a security risk to the F-35. Huh. Just six years ago. Countries not currently approved but may express interest
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
india indonesia egypt vietnam saudi arabia who is approved to buy nato allies close allies so the nato and then japan south korea see that's that's interesting to me to have that kind of a system to me my question is not countries moving forward really isn't it's not you get a guy who has all the money in the world and decides to build real weapons and then the government tells them to do something no

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
How was it for you with your father? He was a SEAL. So was he gone all the time and you still had a relationship with him? Gone. But it still made you want to be a SEAL? What's the only thing you know? What is it with this occupation that makes it so difficult to keep your marriage intact?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
And then the government needs him for the products that he's producing. So they also don't want to do anything to him because the reliability is on that guy. Well, it's going to be very interesting. The next 20 years are going to be potentially many of these movies we've watched the last 20 years. You know what I'm saying? Yeah.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
That's what I'm saying, though. For you guys, you're like, listen, if I fight a human, guess what? If you kill me, you beat us. You know what? Cool. But you're going up against robots? We're talking about robots. Allen Iverson would say, we're talking about robots here? That's a very different situation. Just fight them on the water. Do what? Fight them on the water. Fight them on the water?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Robots don't do good water. What do you feel the safest? Like for you guys got families.

PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
It was so interesting. And then second time around, we brought him. The guy ended up passing away months later, if you remember that. It was such a tragic, suddenly all of a sudden we're like, wait, what happened? We just had the guy on the podcast twice in a month. And I asked him, where do you feel the safest to live, to have your kids? You guys are military.

If this is the direction it's going, you got kids, you got family, you have the resources. Where would you feel building something to feel the safest in case shit were to hit the fan? And you got family. What do you do with your two girls? Move to Montana, get off the grid.

2022, cultivation in Afghanistan was estimated at 233,000 hectares. marking a 32% increase from the previous year. However, following the Taliban ban on opium cultivation, they pretend there was a significant reduction in production by 2023. Opium cultivation has decreased by over 95%. That's a lot. That's a lot of money being lost, despite a 90% increase in cultivation in 2022.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
I think you hope that's going to happen. This is a leader of a country that's at war with Russia, saying he will die soon.

Putin's only 70 years old. Is he only 70? Yeah, I'm out of 72. I don't know how old Putin is. He's not 72 years old, yeah. And he looks pretty good. He doesn't look like he's a Biden, you know. He's 72. He looks healthy. He's training. He's doing his thing. But to make a comment like that, See, to me, I don't know if you, you know, again, you said something.

And you hear a guy speak, and I'm trying to catch to see what he's saying, if they're speaking sign language, you know? And every once in a while, you're like, oh, he said something. He's talking about X, Y, Z. I got it, right? Is it that detailed where you're kind of looking to see what a world leader is saying while a war is going on? There's an active war between the two?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573

I'm only here for that. That makes sense because that also matches up with what you're saying at the beginning when you said when Kobe gets locked in, what was the word you used? The switch? Did you say the switch? Where once you're locked in, you're in, you go. You don't need anything else feeding you to throw you off from the mission that you're on.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
And the average person is not going to understand that. There needs to be a maniacal level of focus and selfishness on the mission you're on. Let the other guys debate it out. See whatever you're doing. I've been told to do this. I'm just going to go do my job, and I'm out. This is what I'm doing.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
Like literally everybody in the room looks like an absolute stud, like people you'd want to hire, right? But everybody was also dealing with an element of PTSD, okay, when you get now trying to disconnect from it. That high you're talking about in Jeremy Renner in Hurt Locker, right?

This is not a, you know, but he says, I'm telling you, I'm going through, you know, some weird thoughts of me trying to make this transition. How hard is that? How long does it take? Does it ever get to a point where you're so disconnected that you're not moved on?
PBD Podcast
“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573
And is there a mechanism on how to disconnect from? Because when you look at sports, historically, when a guy was a professional bodybuilder or professional athlete, I don't know what the statistic is, but it's pretty high. The moment they retire, they get a divorce because now the enemy becomes the wife. You're coming and seeing her more and more and more.

“I’d Die For It Today” - Ex Navy SEALs Reveal Truth About Osama Bin Laden & Future of War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 573

"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Yeah, so you know what I'm doing right now? Here's what I'm searching. So when you sell life insurance, the biggest thing that increased the cost of insurance, and by the way, the audience watching this are like, I'm not interested in life insurance, but there is a point to it because just like California, insurance companies have left. Why have they left? They want to make money.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Why are they leaving? The risk of protecting the home on the water would fire. They just like, listen, time out. We're out, right? They would state they're not leaving Idaho. They're not leaving other places. Why are they leaving California and Florida? Florida, they're leaving because worries of hurricane. Or the cost of insurance has gone up tremendously. I get it.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Gary, it's great to have you on.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
So life insurance tells us the risk of what's going on. The biggest factor on why cost of insurance would go up was smoking. You remember this? If somebody was a smoker, you could be paying $60 for cost of insurance. It goes $120. That was the biggest differentiator. That's right.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Then when you would look at the next one, maybe it was the level of alcohol consumption because you would be like, well, how often do you drink? Well, I drink, you know, once a month. Okay, really? And then we would do the blood work. No, no, you drink. You got fatty liver disease. It's a different test that comes up. And it was your occupation or your weight.
PBD Podcast

Yeah, we met a year ago, I want to say, right? The UFC fight.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Weight would typically be number three on how much you weighed. It was always the warrior weight. But weight wasn't above smoking. So it was smoking, alcohol, weight, and an occupation. If you had a job that was kind of risky, that would increase your cost of insurance. Why was smoking... then alcohol, then your weight. Why was smoking above it all?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Right. And I think it was at an event that President Trump showed up. He did. And Ivanka was there, and we're sitting right there. It was a great experience.

And the part that for me we have in common is the fact that you came from the life insurance industry, the actuary, the life settlement, and that was your introduction to seeing – because the idea with life settlement is you buy insurance policy and finding ways to see how long is this person going to live. And maybe if you don't mind sharing with –

It's important for the audience to realize this is, I own a life insurance policy. I'm 78 years old. I got a $5 million insurance policy. I don't have a living spouse that needs it.

Sex. You talked about sex earlier. One of the best things to go to sleep is sex, right? Studies. You hear and you study a lot of different things. How many times is... Too little, too few, and I'll tell you where I'm going with this because I'm trying to see what you're going to say about this.

I didn't know how many times people had sex until I started having people would come up to me, my sales organization would say, hey, we have sex about once a month. And one of them was like, we have sex about once every three months. I'm like, you guys have been together 15 years? What's going on here? So we just don't have time. We don't do this.

You can't exchange those. So that is the part, the isolation or the death of the loved one or heartbreak leads to, this is why they say, my grandfather died, my grandmother died. That's exactly why. It's called broken heart syndrome. I actually just got goosebumps when you said that.

13 heart attacks. He has three stents in his heart. 50% of his heart was black. And six angiograms, six angioplastics. He's been on Bluthiner since God knows when. And then he was smoking two packs of cigarettes a day. He drank every single day like liquor, 60 proof, like this every day for as long as I know, 15, 20 years. And then one day he decides to stop all of that. But he has always worked.

He's 82 about to be 83. He's still here. Yeah, God bless his soul. But he lives with us, and he's got kids and grandkids.

When you're saying the 32 degrees of elevation and the way they're walking up at 92 years old, whatever, they're living longer than somebody else that had less, whatever you want to call that, friction or challenges you've got to overcome, it's a direct correlation. Let me change it to a different age category. If you're a parent of a... Young athlete, okay?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And when I say young athlete, I don't mean somebody that's just kind of training an hour a day or an hour and a half a day or all this stuff, you know, hey, play sports, likes to have fun, all this stuff. I'm talking about a kid that's training three, four hours every day.

And Saturdays, he's doing his two hours minus plus the games or whatever else he may have and traveling and all this other stuff, right? Loves it. No pressure. It's his choice. No one's telling him, you better do it. He's choosing to do it, and that's what he wants to do, right? How do you...

In this age, he's going, he's playing sports, whoever, it could be a girl, she's going, she's doing this thing. How do you help this kid that is athletic, has a shot at next level?

I don't see Cardone as a health guy. I see him as a real estate guy. What happened between the two of you?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
I mean, why do you think so many people criticize that? Like, I've seen reactions to all of us. Like, I have videos about me that's negative. Hey, Patrick, David, this, this, this, is that? Okay, well, I'm the insurance network market. Okay, great. But why do you think people... Try to, like if there's things that I see where people try to break it down with you, it's hydrogen water.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Why do you think that is? I would love to debate somebody on hydrogen water.

You can drink hydrogen-rich water. How long of doing that do you see the results? Immediately. Really? If you took three, I don't know. Do I have some here? Is my team still here? I've never had it. I have it right now if you want to bring one. I literally have it right now.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
I'll do it right now. You will whack it back. If you want to see somebody bring it right now, drink it. Can you tell my team to come in here and bring hydrogen tablets? Tony, if you can bring, and so you're saying put how many of them in there?

So it's not tough to drink, just so you know how sometimes there's flavor. I don't drink coffee at all. I haven't had it since 25. For me, I'm naturally wired. Seven years ago, I stopped. The last time I had soda was July of 2019 because of my former CFO, Ian Benedict.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557

You know, I was asking him about Celsius and some of these other things. He says, listen, this is the worst. I haven't had anything since the last time he was here. So every time it's one habit, one thing, I try to adjust to see what it does for me. I've never had hydrogen water. I'm curious to know how I'm going to feel throughout the day with this.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
So this is every day three tablets is what you're suggesting. And does it matter? You know how sometimes they say don't drink water from plastic. Do you want to drink water from this?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
I wrote another thing down that I'm curious about. Memory, okay? There's benefit to having memory. Now, obviously, moving forward, I don't think having a strong memory is as beneficial as it used to be because nowadays you've got... Google, ChatGBT, Grok, there's so many easy things. Like people who used to be able to memorize things, that's no longer as a value.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
It's not complicated. It's super not complicated, man. I mean, I wish I could sell it. How long of doing that do you see the results? Immediately. Really? If you took three, I don't know. Do I have some here? Is my team still here? I've never had it. I have it right now if you want to bring one here. I literally have it right now.

"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Just like calculators came out and those who can do math in their mind, great, you can do it. Anybody else can do it. It's a great equalizer, right? But there's still benefits in having a good memory.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
What helps? What can you do to strengthen? I have an exercise I do, but I'm curious to know, to the average person that's thinking, how can I improve my memory? What can you do?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Right there on the bottom of testosterone.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And so I just wanted to show you this because this is a... This reminds me of the book I read many years ago, Ageless Man. I don't know if you've heard about the book Ageless Man. They did the study on, was it rats?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
I don't know what they were testing on to see how your testosterone being lower affects your heart attacks, your heart and how... There's 10,000 receptors for testosterone in the heart alone. Yeah, this is actually the book, by the way. Yeah, that's the book. That's the book that it came out about eight years ago. It's very interesting. It's not a popular book. It's not something that you know.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
It's got 72 reviews. I haven't read it. It was actually a very interesting book to read to understand a little bit more about. Zoom in a little bit on the cover of the book, Rob. How to Cure Prevented Disease of Aging, Alzheimer's, Depression, Parkinson's, Hypertension, Coronary Disease, Heart Infractions, Slip Discs, prostate impotence, knee. I mean, it's like all of it. And it's a simple book.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
It's not a big book to read.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And by the way, this is a very important transition from there to the business you ran because were you, were you an actual actuary or you were not the actuary you were selling?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
By the way, I can listen to you for three more hours and we can go through a bunch of different things. When I was today, I saw some of the stuff. Because the first time I heard about you was when you and Cardone started doing stuff together. Then from there, I saw the Dana stuff. And then you and I met at the UFC thing and we started talking.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And then earlier today, when the guys, we were doing the final prep for the podcast, we went on the 10X Health, whatever the website was. And when I thought about that, the health, I thought about you. I don't think, I don't see Cardone as a health guy. I see him as a real estate guy. I think of you as a health guy. And I saw what's going on recently with you.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
What happened between the two of you?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
But the Life Settlement was out of Florida?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Brickle Key. Did you ever know a guy named Jerry Voll? That name sounds familiar. Yeah, there was a lot of life settlement guys. I know Jerry from 20 years ago. So to me, the average person that's watching is like, what is an actuary, right? So the actuary, their job is, or even the underwriter, you'll submit an insurance policy, and you'll say, well, I think this guy's healthy. What does he do?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
You go through a list of questions that they look at. Maybe they'll do an EKG blood, whatever they're asked to do, depending on the age and the background it is. And then from then they say, yeah, this guy's preferred elite. No, you're preferred. No, you're standard. Oh, you're smoker, standard tobacco, preferred tobacco. So then you're getting graded. Yeah, that's right.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
You don't think he... So when you're saying $17 million that one month is of that business that they owned 82% of, that business at $17 million in a month, well, that's pretty explosive. So, you don't think the 10X brand and Cardone promoting and talking about it helped get it off the ground? Oh, it helped me a lot.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
So you and Grant are good. You don't have issues with Grant.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
But on the opposite side of where you're at, this is how long I'm going to live. When you're buying an insurance policy, what were some of the biggest credits and debits you guys saw to say, I don't know because, again, cost of insurance has gone down predominantly for many years because life expectancy has gone higher.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
So a lot of times people think life insurance must be more expensive today than ever before. It's actually cheaper because we're living longer. We used to live a lot less. 40 years ago, so now it's cheaper to buy life insurance because we're living longer.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Your 18% they could buy at the $75 million valuation.

"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
I thought you guys were... Because this business is not a business I'm interested in getting into because there's too many technicalities to it. And I leave it to the experts to do what they want to do with this. Trust me. Right now we have a guy that wants to do a big sponsorship for one of our events. And I cannot tell you how many questions we're asking before we take sponsorship money.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
But what were some of the, when you were in it and you're looking at all these things, it's like a investment banker looking at so many different deals coming through. They eventually can just look at the deal and say, no, yes, no, no, no, yes, maybe, I don't know. Let me ask this question. What were some of the things you looked at to say,
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
We don't even take sponsorship money the last 18 months. We gave away $6 million because we're just not doing it on the podcast. Mm-hmm. Because of that specific reason. But I thought for sure you guys were going to work together for many years. I thought so too. And do great things.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And it's unfortunate to hear because I think his strength of marketing and just driving and your ability to go out there and present and you come across very likable, trusting. You just said, sometimes I've made mistakes when I said this. Oh, I've definitely made mistakes.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
No, no, but what I'm saying is, all I'm saying is your approach gets me and others to say, okay, I'm willing to give this guy a shot and listen to him, especially if somebody doesn't know who you are, they haven't spent time with you. But I thought you guys were going to do big things together. It's unfortunate that that happened.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
But it is what it is. All the best to both of you guys. I'm sure Grant's going to do well. I always say Grant and I, we had a friendship many, many years ago. Uh, they had a fallen out after I did an interview with somebody who wasn't too happy about, and we didn't keep in contact. I think we spoke, we spoke one time and visited one time in the last six years, seven years.

And it was a great conversation to see what he wants to do next. But, uh, when I watch him, his wife and his daughters, you can say whatever you want to say. They love their father. Oh yeah. You got to respect that. Oh no, he is.

"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
okay, these four behaviors, actuaries automatically are like, no, no, these are the ones we're most concerned about. But these three behaviors, okay, we're good with these. Let's go here.

"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Unfortunately, that happens in families. That happens in businesses. That happens in siblings. That happens that you try to do every... And a lot of times, you know what I've learned? Here's what I've learned. I'm a big fan of prenuptial agreements. And a lot of people are like, why would you want to do that? I'm eliminating future arguments where if we can put it on paper...
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And at first you're kind of like, but we love each other. We don't need to do this. We don't need to do this. Just put it on paper. What if this happens? You do this. What if that happens? We do this. What if this happens? You do this. Okay. Any relationships... that were business or family, whatever, the more things were documented on a piece of paper to agree on.

My wife and I, second date, I bought her a book, 101 Questions to Ask Before You Get Engaged. Why? We talk about so many different things, how we raise our kids, how many kids I want to have financially, who manages the finances, how many days can you go without me being on the road, and da-da-da-da-da, ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, the faith, the politics.

It's an unbelievable book that every young man and woman, by the way, the whole book is literally just 101 questions. There's nothing in a book. It's a question, page, question, page. I wish I had one for business and I could have read it before I got into business with Carl Ventures. By the way, you know what? Rob, can you text me that idea?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
It's actually very good to say 101 questions to ask before you get into business with someone. I would actually entertain writing a book like that. I would read it. Rob, can you text me for that? I think that would be something that... we ought to consider because a lot of people think about it that way.

And if after a year we do this, we're going to merge the two companies together. I'm like, dude, I got 20 questions for you. What's going to happen with this? What if the other person stops working? What's the arrangement to buy back?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
How are you going to evaluate the company to buy it back? If the person says no, they don't want to buy it back. Does it trigger something for you to be able to sell it to this? Do they have to go out? Every one of these things, if I don't do it up front, if you don't do it up front, we're a little bit guilty in, you know, my wife took everything I had. Really? Yeah.

PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557

PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Like, you know, there's a guy named Dr. Mike. I don't know if you know who this guy is on YouTube. There's a Dr. Mike guy that has, you know, 13 million subscribers and during COVID, This guy was the only guy that would interview Fauci. Fauci wouldn't go on any YouTube channel except for this guy, Dr. Mike.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
One day, eventually, he agrees to do an interview with me and another lady that I'm having on. He says, yeah, for sure. Absolutely. Let's do it. I'll debate anybody. And then he avoids it. I'm a good looking young guy. YouTube's putting them all over the place. Very good communicator. He made a video about, he reacts to everybody. He's got a lot, he gets eyeballs, right? But you know what happens?
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
The moment he thought of himself above and beyond everyone, and he no longer wanted to sit down across the table from others. And the only place Fauci trusted to go to was soon. We were supposed to trust the science. And God knows how many of the things that Fauci said ended up being inaccurate, that they had to put a pardon on the guy.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And to go through it, the American people lost a lot of credibility for guys like this. And some of the credibility came for the guys like you that's just questioning things. You're not a doctor. You're just like, look, I'm not at this. I'm not at that. Talk to your doctor. Talk to your cardiologist. We went through Dana White, and Dana White had to do this.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
And you know the regulations and things you have to deal with. But I think the market is... It's kind of going through this pendulum back and forth. Dude, who do I go through? Like, what do I do? These guys are asking some interesting questions that's making me think about, but this guy's got the PhD and the degrees. Do I go through? These guys lost a lot of credibility.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Oh, they lost a ton of credibility.
PBD Podcast
"The REAL Reason You're Dying" – Gary Brecka SLAMS Corporate Scams, Genetic Tests & Health Myths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 557
Why did Bobby gain enough credibility as a Democrat, independent, then for Trump to bring him in? And he's not even a doctor. Why are some of these guys that are not doctors, why did doctors like Fauci lose credibility, yet people like Bobby Kennedy, who are not doctors, gain credibility?
PBD Podcast

Is there actually a... undisclosed division where your job is to gaslight and confuse people or is it absolutely or is it everyone's job to gaslight and and distract because you know like the opposite of a marketing you know like the propaganda that was written right the opposite of marketing which is you're marketing a lie to confuse the american people so they're looking here versus here
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You're saying there's a division of people that do that intentionally?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
I mean, this is bigger than preventing Big Pharma from advertising on TV.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You know why $2 billion is hard to believe? Because the only reason he would have gone to $2 billion because you kept saying no to $50 million, $10 million, $100 million, $200 million, and it eventually goes to $2 billion.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Such as who? Just a few days ago, we hear from a congressman, Burchette, saying that there's possibilities of underwater UFOs. Underwater UFOs, yeah, and they move at 100 miles an hour, and they're massive, and this, this, and that. So today, Stephen Greer gave his perspective on that. We also talked about how Stephen Greer, his entire life's been dedicated to UFOs.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
I think I'm still stuck on two billion because to me, you know, like, oh, that's nothing to these guys. Well, but no, hear me out. Rob, can you pull up the stubble stubble buying fellow? If you don't mind. Fun fact about this guy. He was born on February 6th. And he died on February 6th. And Ronald Reagan was born, I believe, on February 6th.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
If you can go up to, okay, so here's the, this is the person that offered you $2 billion. Correct. So U.S. Army General, who active duty, spent 32 years beginning an Army officer later on, intelligence, he's credit redesigning, you know what I'm saying? Okay. Over the years, it became widely known that he maintained a keen interest in psychic warfare throughout his career.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
He sought to develop an army of soldiers with special powers such as the ability to walk through walls. Whoa. Yeah. Okay. Interesting.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So U.S. Military Academy, 1951, Columbia University. So he's an educated guy. Go a little bit lower. Army officer, military intelligence. Got it. Lift 287. Awards Distinguished Service Medal Legion of Meritude and Bronze Star Air Medal. Respect. Cold War. Vietnam War. Invasion of Grenada. Okay, so this is qualified as it gets.

“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Marilyn was convinced of the reality of a wide variety of psychic phenomena. I keep going lower up. His interest at the bottom, he was interested in UFOs and parapsychology, was a member of Oath Keepers. He and his wife, Rima, were active in patriot movement and appeared together as guests on Alex Jones' show. And he established a nonprofit organization called Natural Solutions.

“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
which disseminated conspiracy theories about vaccinations, pharmaceutical companies, and genetically modified foods. 9-11, he claimed the airplane did not crash into the Pentagon. believe that an airplane did not crash in the Pentagon on September 11th. He said he did not know what did.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
And then on the bottom, the swine flu, he believed, was a genetically engineered virus that is part of a World Health Organization scheme to sterilize untold number of people. So he offered you $2 billion.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So you were 30 years old. They wanted to give you $2 billion. No, in 92, I would have been 36. 36 years old. So you know why that's tough? You ever seen a movie, Horrible Bosses, where they say, hey, we're trying to kill our bosses. And he says, you got to go talk to Motherfucking Jones. And they go and the guy they're negotiating with is to say, we want to take out our bosses, $50,000.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
And then he says, 500 bucks, I'll do it. And it kind of goes to the bottom. It's like for a person to go from zero to we'll give you $2 billion for this, it's truly the word is unbelievable because somebody would offer 100 grand, 500 grand, a million dollars.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So you tried to charm your wife?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
And what did he say that maybe your wife came to you and said, baby, you should consider this?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So you would call him a con man?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
All these things is what he's been committing his entire life to. So I said, how confident are you that Trump's administration, with Ratcliffe, Hex and others, are going to pursue this? His answer wasn't what I expected. I also selfishly wanted to ask him a little bit more.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Yeah, because when you say $2 billion, it's a lot easier to get rid of you than pay you $2 billion. Correct. If a person has enough power to approve a $2 billion bribe, that person also has the same amount of power to also eliminate you. So why waste $2 billion?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
I showed him this clip, a deleted footage of the 1969 moon landing, wanted to get his reaction to it, where you'll see something happens on the back end. And he gave me a complete different story on what he thinks happened to the moon landing, which I think you'll get a kick out of.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Having said that, if you love Stephen Greer's work and what he talks about, you know what kind of an audience you are, if you like that kind of stuff. you're probably going to be glued to the screen today. And I challenge him on something about the fact that somebody offered him $2 billion from the U.S. government, a two-star general. I pushed him on a little bit.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You'll see what his response was on why somebody from the government would give you $2 billion or offer to give you $2 billion. Having said that, I think you're going to enjoy this podcast here with Stephen Greer.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Why won't you? Where do they recruit them from?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
What is this name of the place you were talking about? I want to go to the Jake Barber clip. What is the name of the place, the Ant Hill Lockheed, that picture that you showed? What's the name of it if Rob wanted to just search for it?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Is that what you're talking about right there?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
My handshake is better than anything I ever signed, right here.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You think he was killed for this reason?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So we're back at it again. This is what, three or four? I think it's one of them, right?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Yeah, I mean, again.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
I'm curious what we're going to learn about that we don't. know about right now under this administration. One of the things that's interesting, what is his name? His name is Tim Burchett. Oh, yeah, I know. Right? You know Tim Burchett? Yeah, sure. I know him. He comes out a few days ago, and he talks about underwater UFO. Sure. Okay?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
He doesn't seem like a guy or fellow that's an exaggerator that is trying to make up a story or something like that. And, you know, you see him on NewsNation saying, yes, you know, I've been hearing about underwater UFOs. Rob, if you got the clip on.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Fantastic. And last one, we talked about the Secrecy Act of, what, 1951, right? The Invention Secrecy Act of 1951 because the documentary that you did, what was the documentary called?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Yeah, if you have a Tim Burchett, that's the one right there. I think, no, that's not the one. No, that's when he's calling Jim Acosta. Right here, underwater. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
underground, underwater UFOs as big as football fields. Sure. Moving 100 miles. And he said some number that he gave, right? So what do you know? What do we know about them?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Lost Century, which was fascinating to me. I had everybody around me watch that documentary. And fascinating. Today, you have some sensitive things you want to share with the audience. Sensitive and confidential. Do you mind if I show them this folder? No, go ahead.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You have some sensitive and confidential things that we're going to go through because of what we're going right now with new administration being in there. I'm curious to know what new updates you have. A lot of weird things have been going on. Some will call them psyops. Some will call them a regular Tuesday. But from... The moment last time we were together was what, five months ago, Rob?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So when you see this underwater – UFO that this fellow's talking about.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Right. And he's here, Rob, if you want to play this clip, because CBS wrote about this. So CBS is not going to write something about this. Maybe go ahead and play the clip, Rob.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Yeah, something like that. Something like that. It's summer. A lot's changed since last time is the point I'm trying to make. So what is new? What is the latest with things that are going on with Trump specific to the topics you and I discussed last time?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Can I read that?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Why is that?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
They're going to be like, wait a minute. You want to bring zero-point quantum... But wait, wait.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
This is disruption at the highest level. I mean... If this is... So this is the part that I'm thinking about.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Yeah, but what you're going to get if it's the zero-point quantum invention secrecy act of 1951 and they release those, let's just say that is all real. It is. Let's say that exists and that is released. Um... Millions of jobs are lost in oil.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
All I'm thinking about is knowing how Trump moves. Oh, I understand. For Trump to want to do what he does, and he's only got four years. Right. Because to do what you want to do, you'll need 20, 30 years. Yeah, but it has to start sometime.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
It's not going to be under his... And then the other part is if that two-star general 30 years ago couldn't get you for $2 billion, Trump's administration is not going to be able to afford you. You know, afford Ford.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
What I'm saying is that you have no idea how bad I personally felt like if I'm a president today. Yes. And everybody wants to go see what's going on. John F. Kennedy, RFK, MLK, aliens, all this stuff. I'm going straight to the Invention Secrecy Act in 1951. I want to know what they have there, the 6,000 patents or whatever. There's a little over 6,000 that they have in there, right? Correct.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
I'm going straight there. Then I'm asking myself, with a handful of advisors that are in there saying, if we release this zero-point energy, or what is it called, Rob, some of the other ones that are out there in the Investment Secrecy Act, that's one of them. If we release these, how big of a disruption will it be to the world, not just what we're doing in the States?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Well, this one's going to kill off this many jobs. This one's going to kill off that many jobs. Got it. And you have to almost sit there and ask yourself, if you release it, it's chaos on top of chaos. It's like when you release a great idea or software and it's out there and others can get access to it, it's done. You can never take it back.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
When they invented a nuclear bomb, you can never take it back again. Now it's out there, right? If they go this direction... I mean, this is bigger than preventing Big Pharma from advertising on TV. Oh, this is massive.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You think he knows about the Invention of Secrecy Act of 51?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
President Trump.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Who is the head of protecting this right now? Whose lineage does this go under? Whose report responsibility does this go under?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
But in the U.S., somebody has like, for example, if my job is to protect the Smithsonian, my job is to the decision to classify new inventions under the act is made defense agencies as defined by the president. These agencies include Army or Navy Air Force. National Security Agency, Department of Energy, Department of Homeland Security, NASA, but even the Justice Department has played its role.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544

PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
It's not about I can't. It's not about it can't. Trump is very good at keeping everybody uncertain But, you know, semi promises where if you do this so like getting multiple plays that are spinning.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
That are about to fall off and he still keeps them. Oh, yeah. And it spins them a little bit more and they're about to fall off and he spins them again. This will be 20 plays fall on the same day. That's what would happen with something like this, and that's not his style. Okay, so let's actually process this.
PBD Podcast

“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
He and Hillary. No, what I'm saying is, who is their boss? Who calls them and say, you better arrest?

They won't. Neither one of them will. Nobody will do this.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Well, let's transition into a few other stories. A couple selfish things that you and I didn't talk about last time. Moon landing. A lot of the stuff that's coming up with moon landing. Yes, yeah. More newer things are coming up, you know, stories. You see these clips, okay? Yeah. And some of these clips I watch, I mean, I know you got opinions on this and you've spoken about this before.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Rob, if you can show this one that I just sent to you right now from 1969. These are claiming, these are deleted scenes from 1969 moon landing. Whether this is true or not, I don't know. Whether this is Photoshop or not, I don't know. But I've seen these pictures and these clips all over the place. This is one of them showing. If you can play the clip, Rob, go for it. Watch this.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So lower the audio a little bit, Rob. It's very loud. This is first take. You can pause it. You see this clip. I don't know if it's true or not. They made the additional movie talking about the fact that, you know, that movie that came out. What was the name of the movie, Rob? Fly Me to the Moon? Fly Me to the Moon is the name of the movie.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
that, hey, while they were landing on the moon, they rented a different storage place and hired this lady that was a big propaganda lady who was good at conning other people, her and her mom. And let's fool people into how this happened. Where are you at now with the moon landing? Did it happen? Did it not happen? Ilan's very excited. The fact that the president is excited.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
He talked about it during the inauguration. How much has your position changed?

Rob, what do you have right there? What's this here?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You know what I like about when I talk to you is I don't take it and I say, I 100% believe what you're saying or whatever. For me, I'm a skeptical guy. Not because of you. I'm just a skeptical guy, period.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544

PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Is there anything you look at this where you say something's weird, it could be this, it could be that, or look, it was just an accident. There's so much traffic that's going on there. What's your conclusion on what really happened here?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
So those are the sort of things that we... So you're saying there could be a possibility of this crash that's a cover-up for something else?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
That's a different story that you're talking about.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Right.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Well, let me ask you this other question. With... With the OpenAI whistleblower. Are you following that story or not really? No, I have not. Okay. How about DeepSeek and ChatGBT?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Got it. Last one here, unless if you have any other thing you want to talk about. You know, Trump's uncle, You know, you hear about what he had access to. What do you know about it? How deep is that story?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
You're saying specifically Trump. He commented on that, right?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Last thing, just for me, when I had you on here, I think you said something about Billy Carson, and you and Billy Carson were friends. You saw Billy Carson and Wes Huff did a podcast together. Did you follow any of that story or no? No, I didn't.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Oh, okay. Got it. Yeah, I was wondering, because both you and Billy are pretty complimentary of each other, I wondered how you felt about – The podcast that he did with Wes, but you're not aware of this podcast that took place.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Well, listen, I mean, he's another guy that speaks with a level of certainty that you fully believe in. And it was very interesting seeing him and Wes sitting down together. It was a very successful podcast. I'm glad Billy did it. I hope they do another one together because it either increases your conviction in certain things or makes you question other things and research more.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
And I thought you had another opinion on that podcast that took place. Stephen, as usual, every time we get together, you're very interesting to listen to. Seriously, very interesting to listen to. And hopefully the next time we do a podcast, we'll actually see some progress with this. That I look forward to.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Appreciate you for coming out. Thank you so much. Thank you.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Yes. How different do you think... And maybe why. How different do you think the President Trump's administration will approach finally? You know, hey, we're going to find out about John F. Kennedy assassination, MLK, RFK. Do you think this is the next phase that we're going to find things out under his administration? And if yes, why?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
The people that are directly working with them don't know anything about the subject?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Such as who? I don't want to get into names, but they're completely... Well, I would want to know, like, whose jurisdiction would this be under?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Do you think this is the next phase that we're going to find things out under his administration? It's all in play.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
Where do you see the level of interest in wanting to know this? Because everything is about the level of interest of an administration, right? Correct. Where is the level of interest with them?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGER Than The Nuclear Bomb” - Dr. Steven Greer REVEALS Suppressed Energy Tech & Biden UFO Truths | PBD Podcast | Ep. 544
If we release these, how big of a disruption will it be to the world? It's chaos on top of chaos.

PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I'm like, listen, something's got to be the issue here because the real problem, Tom, is when – When the employer hires an H-1B person, which, by the way, we've hired a handful in the last 25 years, and it's legal. Nobody's doing anything illegal. If you have the ability to hire one, you do.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It's not like there was a, you know, some call it a civil war within the conservative, independent, libertarian community. We'll talk about that. We'll talk about the passing of one of our presidents, Jimmy Carter, who made it to 100. I have some thoughts on that, but some things Biden said about him, some things Trump said about him. We'll talk about that.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But there are people that hire somebody, and you pay them $75,000 a year, hypothetically, versus paying $150,000. Or you hire them, and you're paying $120,000 versus paying $180,000. And you save that $60,000, which the job is going to what? Somebody that's coming in as a H-1B visa. That criticism is true. And then we went a little bit deeper, Tom, and we saw the lawsuit with Infosys.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Infosys paid $34 million in H-1B lawsuit. I think Apple paid $25 million. Facebook is going through it. And do you know who sued the Trump administration in 2017 on H-1B visas? Amazon. Do you know what company hires the most H-1B visas? Do you know who's ahead by a mile? It's Amazon. It's not even close. Do you know where Tesla was ranked on hiring the most H-1B visa folks? Where was it ranked?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
21st or 22nd place. Okay. So you're not talking about a top 10. Brandon, Kelly, if you guys can send that ranking to Rob for him to have it, you got to see this because it's interesting as you go deeper and everybody is criticizing everybody and you go through deeper, you're like, you know, it's not...
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But Amazon, majority of the people they are hiring of the H-1B visas, which we have around a half a million, give or take, number one was not only Amazon. Amazon had like three or four companies that were in the top 20 companies that hired the most people. This isn't the one. There's another chart that she has. She'll send it to you here in a minute. So I understand the arguments.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
going against it. I understand the expansion of it. I understand the concerns. There's these consulting firms that they hire H-1B visas. And let's just say they're going to get you a job for making $120,000 a year. They keep a quarter of it. Do you understand what I'm saying? They play the role of an agent to you.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
That's insane, by the way, to do that.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
They're not ripping away the employer tax. They're getting a percentage. The employee. Yeah. Correct. Typically, if I choose to hire your agency, the Oshana recruiting firm, and you find me a C-suite executive, I would pay 25% on the salary of your one. Let's say the person's $300,000. You find that person for me. I hire them. I give you $75,000. Wow.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But what they're doing is if they find you a job for $200,000, they're keeping the $50,000 every year on the salary.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
which that kind of, right there, by the way, if you look at the H-1B visas, Amazon's first place, then it's Cognizant, then Ernst & Young, then you see Microsoft fifth, then it's Google, then Meta, then Infosys, HCL, Walmart, Apple, Amazon, again, Intel, IBM. JP Morgan, Accenture. You've got a few other companies. Now look at Tesla, 22nd place. Then again, Amazon.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So Amazon's on there multiple times for their companies on the list of most H-1B visas. Tom, you were going to say something.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And then we have more things with Canada. It doesn't seem like it's going away. Some of Trudeau's top ministers, without him, showed up to Mar-a-Lago to have a visit with Trump. What are they talking about? And then Kevin O'Leary turns around and says half of Canadians favor Trump's proposal for Canada to join the U.S. Very interesting.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah, they do that. And the deeper we get in, this is a problem. This chart here that Brandon found shows the most popular college majors, and they've changed from 2016 to 2023. Wow. Like kids are going to college. Parents are telling their kids, go get this degree. Number one is business. Two is nursing. Three is education. Four is biology. You know what five is that's climbed up to three?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Psychology. is the number three major now. You know engineering used to be sixth place in 2016? You know where it's at now? It's at ninth place. Why would you tell your kids to not become engineers? Right there, look at that. The chart, it's dropped. Zoom in a little bit, Rob, so we can see the majors on the left. You see how psychology, the purple from fifth place goes to third place?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Keep going lower. Engineering drops. Close the chart on the left, Rob, if you can, the X. Yeah, if you go and look at the left, you'll see engineering was sixth. See the dark purple? Dropped down to ninth place. Criminal justice stays around the same place. Computer science stays around the same place. Accounting, computing stays around the same place. Now, if you go...
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And look at STEM, countries against U.S. Rob, if you can pull up this other chart, how we rank against other countries in STEM. Keep going up, up, up, the other way, the other way, Rob, the other way, yeah. Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going. Right there. Zoom in to the top one. To the top one. Look at that.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Top countries of STEM, numbers by graduates. China, 3.57 million. India, 2.55. We're third place, 820. Now go to the one above it that shows percentage-wise. Above it, Rob. Above it, yeah. Look at this here. Percentage of graduates that are STEM. China, 41%. Of their graduates are in STEM. Russia's 37, Germany's 36, Iran's 33, India's 30% because of their IIT, France 26, Mexico 26. Look at us.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And we want to compete? I mean, this is... And by the way, a part of this... To me is like when you think about when Dallas Mavericks bring Dirk Nowitzki or Luka or Giannis or all these players that are coming from the European system here, and Kobe would always bash the AAU system in the States, and he came from the Italian. He learned how to play basketball, the fundamentals in Europe.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Biden said he is disappointed and regrets ending his election because he thinks the campaign, if he would have stayed in, he thinks he would have beaten Trump. I mean, you know, that's got to be a very interesting thing. for a guy like him to say. And then aside from that, young and the restless, 37% of Gen Z skipping a gym, going straight to a Zembik, studies finds.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Why do they translate from that league its results? So my only concern with this argument is, yes, keep the jobs in America. Yes, give the jobs to American graduates. Yes, make it competitive here. And if some of these guys are coming here that are the smartest people, why not keep them? Why not recognize them? Why not respect the fact that they create jobs?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
One of the tweets, I said, our founding fathers, a guy responds back and says, those are not your founding fathers. Guy posts a picture of the Shah of Iran and says, that's your founding father. But that tells you what, you know, a part of this, there's nationalists and there's white nationalists. White nationalists, Vinny, don't want people like us here. I know. They just don't.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
White nationalists are a very different model, and they can have that argument, but this got very ugly very quick.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
What do you think about it?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Can I read the tweet so the audience knows and then I'll go to you? Yeah, please do. So here's what Steve Bannon said. Steve Bannon said, let me be clear on H-1B. I want zero. The whole thing is about, oh, they're only geniuses, H-1B visas. That's not what it's about.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It's about making American jobs and bringing over essentially what have become indentured servants at lower wages, the things a scam by the oligarchs in Silicon Valley to basically take jobs from American citizens, give them to – What become indentured servants from foreign countries and pay them less? Simple. That's what he said.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Germany's president dissolves parliament, sets national election for February 23rd. Germany opened its door to migrants. Now it's struggling to cope. Credit cards. This is a story we're not hearing about a lot lately, but Tom's got some commentary on this. U.S. credit card defaults jumped to highest levels since 2010. Uh-oh. Credit card charge-offs and delinquencies hit 13-year high.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
What's your point there?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But there's also another thing. Are you saying that because you're saying, you know, the opportunity to live in India is not as good as here? It's not even close. No, no. Meaning, so Indians are going to school there, but they're wanting to come to America here. The dream for them is to come here.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It's low? It's ridiculous. Their divorce rate is, on some data, shows 1%. On some data, it shows 6%. African-Americans were the highest in the U.S. at 31%. Hispanics were at 18.5%. Whites were at 15.1%. But Indians are at 1% to 6% divorce rate is what they have. Yeah, it's some ridiculous number that they have.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
The Indians are playing the game. They're doing it. Yeah, but what I'm trying to understand is the following. Here's what I'm trying to understand, Tom. And I want to bring this to you. I want to understand everybody's points. Like, for example, I want to understand Elon. Well, he said, you know.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Well, that's what I'm saying. What he says, the reason I'm in America along with so many other critical people that built SpaceX and Tesla and hundreds of other companies that America's strong because of H-1B, take a big step back and go F yourself. That's from the movie.
PBD Podcast

Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Never go full return. But you know why he's saying that? I mean, he came here on one. So to him, that's personal. That's a success story. Now, to somebody who was born here and they're white and they were raised in a certain way where they're white nationalist, okay, you view me as go back to Iran. deport Elon back to, what do you call it?

Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Are they peaking? This next data, this is not another data you want to brag about. End of the year in December, while the new guy doesn't take over until January 20th, U.S. homelessness is up 18%, and officials are blaming the migrant crisis. Devastating natural disasters and a lack of affordable housing for the reason behind it.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Deport Vivek back to India, right? And you make those types of comments. All right, I don't think that's majority of America. I think that's less than 5% of America. Yeah, that's the far right. That's the far right. And the far left wants open borders and let everybody come in here. Let's legalize everyone. The far right wants, if you're not a white nationalist, get the hell out of here.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And the problem here is you as a consumer not knowing the position of the individual before they say it and you think everyone is in that position. They're not. Not everyone's in that position. So this is why it's caused a little bit of confusion. I'm reading a book right now by Robert Half about how recruiting firms were grown in the 80s.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And one of the things he said, he said, he's the founder of Robert Half. His name is Robert Half. He wrote this book on HR. I don't know what the book's name is. It's actually really good. He explains how in the 70s, one of the things that happened in the 70s and 80s is the media, every time you would see somebody become a billionaire, everybody would say he made his billions by hurting someone.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So the image was the only way you can get rich is by what?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
By telling scam artists, con artists, all this other stuff. Some of the words, I mean, a community notes section came up, Rob. If you can pull this up. I saw one on, they called Vivek. A scammer, con artist, they called... There's a bunch, but here's one right here. It's such a lazy, weak argument. But put this one up there right there. On the tweet that I put up, look at the bottom there.

Yeah, he was in his mid-40s. I said, how do you think they feel about you being in here right now? How much pain do you think they're at? When they go to sleep every night, how much pain do you think they got? A lot. How much do you think they would like to see you go back to being? Yes. How long have you gone without drinking? And he tells me, I've gone seven days without drinking. I said, great.

PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
He went straight to the bone. And to those guys, you know, churches do things. Charities do things. A lot of people are doing things to help them out. But the ones that can be helped, the investment must be made in people who want to help themselves. To try to help 100%, veterans, they served for you and I. They gave us protection. We went to sleep feeling safe.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We have to take care of our veterans. There's no question. Psychological, PTSD, it's challenging for a lot of them. We've got to find a way to make that work. For some of them. But I think the investment's got to be made in people that are willing to help them.

By the way, you know that $24 billion they gave to California? And California's got 180,000 homeless people. Do you know if they took that $24 billion... and they gave it to each homeless person. They just gave it to them. You know how much money it would be? $133,000 a piece. Where do you think that money went to? You think it ended up going there?
PBD Podcast

Hey, Brandon, if we've not done a clip, I think we've done one on homelessness. Maybe put a list that we may do something on this year soon.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I got a question for you. Here's a question for you, Vinny. Let me ask you. What's the most you ever drank?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
In a day? No, no. When did you get to a point where you felt like, man, I'm in too deep. I don't know how the hell I'm going to get out of that hole the way I drank.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Horrible time. So watch this. Is that the most you ever drank?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Okay. So for example, like if I go to, I used to go to clubs six days a week in LA. Yeah. I was out. The only day I took off was Monday. Every day I was committed. So Tuesdays is the only day I took off. So I used to go to the club six days a week. I used to go to Vegas every other week. I was in Vegas. Very loyal, very committed. I helped build the, you know what it was?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
If you look at this, this is my interest. The final product is being homeless. what are the previous seven steps before you got here? And the reason why this is important is because so many times we try to fix this, and what you don't pay attention to is, why don't we minimize and eliminate more people falling into this?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We have to be just as proactive of preventing people to become homeless as we are of addressing the existing homeless people. Do you know what I'm saying? Because sometimes you're like a sales leader talks to a sales team. And you got five disgruntled sales guys. And in your mind, all you're thinking about is what? Those five disgruntled sales guys.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And your brain, your mind is consumed with those five disgruntled sales guys. You don't think about the other 30 that you have here that are fully committed, that want to improve. You want to make sure they stay ethical before they do something dumb. How do we prevent these guys from joining this camp?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
The more we can go through this process, then you have to find a way to prevent, prevent, prevent, and then you come for solutions at every category. Whether it is, you know, we don't do enough of selling the nightmare. I think we don't even do enough of a job selling the dream right now. We don't do enough of a job selling the nightmare. What's the nightmare?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We don't do enough of a job where I remember how many times if guys were to come out and say how many people I wouldn't have picked up from DUI in the middle of the night, I don't know what that number is. It's a massive number. And I did it so many times. that I would sit in the car and we're driving, we're talking.

It's 3 o'clock in the morning, 4 o'clock in the morning, 2 o'clock in the morning. And I'm like, hey, man, can I talk to you? Yes. When's the last time you had a drink? Well, I've been in jail for 12 hours. I haven't had one for 12 hours. So you're sober, yeah. Do you realize what you're about to do to your life? And for 30 minutes, I'm selling the nightmare.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Your wife, your kids, your parents, heartbreak, the disappointment when your dad hears about this, the pain in your mom's eyes, nine months your mother carried you,
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
the challenges they went through, the sacrifices they made, the number of soccer practices they drove you when you're going on these travel teams, the amount of baseball things they did for you, the amount of things they bought for you, when they couldn't afford to buy you a video game on Christmas, they bought it on debt, and he was working two different jobs.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
You realize how much pain you're bringing to these guys. You realize that. You realize, you think God put you here to do this right now. And I would go into selling the nightmare of you're about to lose it all if you do this. And when you're in it, sometimes you're so around other people that are also doing this, and then it's done.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And I'm like, look, if you go the way you're going right now, your wife's probably going to leave you. You're probably not going to see your kids a lot. You're going to go through challenging times. And the hardest years of your life are ahead of you. Or you can stop the decision now. Let's go to AA meeting together tomorrow. Let's go see some of these guys here.

This could be a very special second half or two-thirds of your life that's coming up. But you have to sell the nightmare. I think on this cycle, you know, like one time I was with Antoine Walker. I don't know if you remember Antoine Walker. Of course, the basketball player. The Boston Celtics, right?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah, he lost $120 million. That's how much he got paid. Can you put Antoine Walker total contract?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Total pay, like career earnings right there, yeah. $108 million. Cars, houses.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Where is he at? How this NBA all-star made and lost $100 million of fortune. So we're sitting at a cigar lounge in Chicago. And we're sitting there talking. Morgan Stanley. Can you type in Antoine Walker, Morgan Stanley? I just typed in Antoine Walker, Morgan Stanley. I believe it's Morgan. This was seven years ago. I may be wrong.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Okay, Antoine Walker, former NBA All-Star. Okay, this was nine years ago. Has worked with Morgan Stanley Global Sports and Entertainment Division since 2015 to educate young athletes about financial risk. He's telling me how he sits with professional players to tell them how they lost all the money. Remember Mark Rippin from Washington Redskins, the Super Bowl champion that beat the Bills?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Career earnings of him, I think, was $41 million. If you can type in, he was those career earnings, $37 or $41 million, some number like that, I remember. What was it? Anyways, he also made a lot of money.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
He won a Super Bowl. But the point is, man, Antoine Walker went and sat down with kids that are about to go into the NBA, NFL, and say, don't waste your money. He sold the nightmare that everybody's going to come knocking and wanting to do stuff. It breaks my heart when I see people going through it. It's very painful when you see them going through telling the story.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
But we've got to prevent the next $10 million of getting into the system.

You know, when you read the Kennedy and the Bush's family structure, what they had, they both said, first, go make your money, protect your family, then find a way to go into public service, whether it's church, politics or charity.

Let's go to the next one. So this is a community that maybe has been having one too many drinks. The late night comedy spent shows 2024 bashing Trump as viewership continues to crash. Vinny, I'm coming to you on this one here, so get your data ready. Rob, I think you got a video on this. Late night comedy hosts like Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel focus heavily on Trump
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
in 2024 with, ready, 98% of the 1,463 election-related jokes targeting who? Donald Trump. According to Media Research Center, MRC, Colbert CBS show averages 2.6 million views in 2023-2024 season, a drop, you ready from what? 3.8 million. Colbert went from 2.6 million to 3.8 million to 2.6 million. That's 1.2 million viewers he lost from five years ago.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And Kemmel, ABC, is at 1.3 million viewers in the third quarter. Unbelievable. 1.3 million. That's the Leno versus Letterman, and that's at 1.3 million. I can think of 40 podcasts that do better numbers than that, 1.37 million. Both Colbert and Kemmel had emotional reactions to Trump's decisive victory, with Kemmel reportedly holding back tears on his first broadcast after the election.

Meanwhile, polls indicate dwindling public interest in celebrity political opinions. with 75% of voters saying endorsements made no difference or not much of a difference on their votes. According to Rasmussen, only 12% of independent supporting celebrities sharing political views print AP nor poll. Rob, is this a clip?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I will tell you. I will tell you. I used to like when Fallon used to do stuff with Justin Timberlake, but that was like 10 years ago, whatever it was. I actually like what Fallon would do. And earlier, Kimmel, I watched a couple of his stuff. Well, man, there was a time I never missed Leno. When I tell you I never missed Leno, because it's Letterman versus Leno, I was all Leno.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I love Leno so much that I actually went to his show.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Look at that poll, Vinny. I don't mean to interrupt you.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
What late night show do you watch? 1,800 voters. Good for you guys. 96% said none. 2% Fallon, 1% Kimmel, 1% Colbert.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It's all failed. It's failed, and I'm happy. But I got a question for you, Tom. And to me, here's how this goes, okay? For example... We fund a business and we sit there and we look at the different business units and we'll say, okay, Tom, we put $5 million into this business last year. What's the return on it? This. We put $10 million into this business last year. The return is $40 million. Okay.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
This other one, we put $3 million into this. We did this. Okay. How long can you go entertaining something that's not getting money back or return back or any of that back? Tom, how long is ABC going to go with this before they fire and replace a Kimmel? Let me give you guys an idea on what I think with this. I'll just go to you first, and I'll give you my thoughts here.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
How long do you think it'll last for Kimmel to go the way he's going before a Bob Iger, because ABC, this is Disney, before Bob Iger says, hey, we've got to figure something out here, or A, Fallon continued the way he's going before they replaced. Rob, how long have either one of them been going? How long has Kemmel been going? What is his tenure?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
How long has Kemmel been going and how long has Late Night? Is it? Oh, my God. Kemmel's been going for 21 years. Oh, God. By the way, so here's what I want to know. How long has Fallon been going? If you can just ask the same question and just say Fallon instead of Kemmel.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So Kemmel is 21. Yeah, 10 years. Fallon is 10 years. Okay, can you do me a favor and go look at how long Letterman went and how long Leno went? How long did Leno go? 30 years?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So Letterman went 22 years, and how long did Leno go?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Leno and Letterman, what's the number? Longer. Leno went how long?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
You're going to say he did longer? Rob, do you see it? 92 to 2009.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Okay, so let's say 21 years. So guess what? It's time. Yeah. It's time for Kemmel to move on. If Letterman did 22 years, if Leno did 21 years, I actually like Conan O'Brien, to be honest with you.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Yeah. He was awesome. He was great. I think... There seems to be a pattern. The pattern becomes you start thinking you're a bigger deal than you really are, and you get a sense of bitterness. Kimmel sounds bitter. And you can't have that on late night. The entertainment I want late night, I don't even want to think about politics. I just want to, when I used to watch it, I just want to relax.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Maybe it's time for them to say, Kemo, great job giving 21 years. You got the same amount of years as Leno. You got one year less than Letterman. It's time to move on and get somebody else. Tom, your thoughts. Well...
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
It looks good for 60, to be honest with you.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Super likable. Super trusting. Super likable, super trusting. Sure. You can say what you want with him. What the market is telling you is they'll take likable and trusting over arrogant, pompous, entitled, arrogant pricks.

Jon Stewart, at least funny. I also don't think Jon Stewart's the guy. If I'm running ABC, if I'm running NBC, and I have the kind of money that they have, I'm going a very different direction. I just am. I'm going a different direction. I'm not going to any of these guys right now. I'm going to a very different place, strategy. I've got to take a bit of a risk, but you have to also realize that
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
You know, to have something like this go on the way it is, you have to catch yourself because what you don't realize happens to everybody when you're creating content or when you have success or fame or money or flattery. You know what ends up happening? The most dangerous thing that happens, and by the way, nobody is free from this. The most noble man on earth isn't free from this.

The more people tell you how amazing you are, the longer it goes, the more you start believing your shit don't stink, and then you talk to the audience where you're talking at them. Instead, you were speaking with them. You were having a cup of coffee with them. Now you're preaching. Now you're annoying. Now you're bitter. Everybody... is tempted to fall for this. Everybody.

Watch why he's like, are you kidding me? Jimmy Carter passes away, right? May he rest in peace. Nice guy, terrible president. And Vinny, this one is actually true, right? This is not like he's going to get community notice.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
He made it to 100 years old, right? Jimmy Carter. And for me, I'm here because of him. This is a post by Eli David, Rob. If you can click on that and post it, it's got a zoom in. That's Iran before Carter. That's Iran after Carter. He comes in December 31st, 1977, has a toast with the Shah saying Iran is a legacy, an island of stability, the word he uses.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
leaves, literally when he leaves, the revolution starts. And what has happened to Iran since 79? You tell me. How are the chaos? What's the quote that the Shah said? Here's Shah's quote during that time on what he said is going to happen to Iran. Rob, I don't know if you have it or not. There's a quote by the Shah. He said, if I leave, Iran will go down.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
If Iran goes down, Middle East will go down. If Middle East goes down, the world will suffer. He said this in 78. He was right. He said this in 78. That magazine I have, by the way. Can you zoom in a little bit on the dates of that magazine, Rob? Is that 78 or 76?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
That's exactly four weeks before I was born. Wow. Okay. Four weeks before I was born and then boom. He leaves January of 20, I'm sorry, 1979. And what's happened to Iran since then? Shambles. So part of this policies of what he did wrecked a lot of what's going on in Middle East. People can take it back to him and Kissinger.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
They can go back to that and put some of the blame, maybe a lot of the blame on him. Having said that, if there was anybody that could say what he wanted to say about Carter, what does Trump say? Can you pull up Trump's tweet about Carter? And this is what you got to see on Twitter. You tell me if you sense any bitterness from this tweet. Beautiful.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
The challenges Jimmy faced as president came at a pivotal time for our country, and he did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans. For that, we all owe him a debt of gratitude. Melania and I are thinking warmly of the Carter family and their loved ones during this difficult time. We urge everyone to keep them in their hearts and prayers. Are you kidding me? Oh, sweet.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
What is the likelihood that the mainstream media was actually going to post that tweet? But the point I'm trying to make to you is, this is the part that if Trump can adjust at 78 years old, and these other young guys, compared to Trump, they're in their 50s, and 60, 61 years old, they're bitter every night, you're not attractive. The market is not interested. You won't get the votes.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
People will leave you. And I think it's time for Kimmel to step aside and give that show to somebody else that can come and go on their own 10, 15, 20-year run because that time is here. Anyways, let's go to the next story here. Tom, I'm going to the stories about U.S. credit card defaults jumped to the highest level since 2010. That's 14 years ago, folks.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Credit cards, a lot of people are dealing with this right now, and it's a very challenging place to be. I remember when I was $49,000 in credit card debt. It feels like you're suffocating when you're in it.
PBD Podcast

Credit card defaults in the U.S., highest level since 2010, with $46 billion in seriously delinquent loan balance written off in the first nine months of 2024, a 50% increase from the previous year according to bank reg data. Mark Zandia of Moody's Analytics highlighted the financial strain on lower-income consumers, stating high-income households are fine, but the bottom third of U.S.

Rising credit card balances and interest costs have worsened financial stress, with Americans paying $170 billion in interest Over the last 12 months, $170 billion just in interest last 12 months. Credit card balance is exceeding $1 trillion for the first time in mid-2023, fueled by post-pandemic spending and inflationary pressures.

Consumer spending power has been diminished, says Odessa Pompey Dimitro of Wallet Hop, as delinquency rates remain nearly a percentage point higher than pre-pandemic levels. Pointing to more pain ahead, credit card charge-offs and delinquencies at a 13-year high. Another story right behind it. Tom, your thoughts on this year?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So let me ask you this question, Tom. If you look at this chart, Rob, you had the other one as well, but let's stay on this one real quick. U.S. credit card write-offs jump. 2010, that's after 08, market crash, Obama, 2010, spikes. 2024, spikes. Crash of 08, people spent, then they defaulted. So what I'm trying to ask you is, if I look at this chart... Is 2024 2010 or is 2025 going to be 2010?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I think 2024 is 2008-9 and 2025 is going to be 2010 because... So let me get this straight. What you just said right there, Rob, go to the other one.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I'm asking you if 2024 is 2010, meaning are we at the peak or is next year numbers on loan write-offs going to go skyrocketing even higher than 2024?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I'm calling peak next year. I'm kind of with you because if you think about the timeline of COVID and what happened with Biden and the economy the last 48 months, Ah, yep.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
We'll be on this topic for a while. Rob, can you pull up Vivek's tweet real quick? Vivek's tweet that I retweeted and I got community notes. I want to show the whole thing for the audience to see what happened the last couple of days. But first, go to his tweet. So Vivek posts this tweet. If you go under my account, you'll see it.

Then after the statement, it goes to what predictions was made for 2024, what became a reality, biggest decisions made, biggest victories, setbacks, affirmations, areas of improvement. Then it goes to big projects working on in 2025. Then it's trust God who created you into who you are. It's the affirmations. Then it goes family. A big part of it is my wife and I. Then it's my oldest son.

The reason top tech companies often hire foreign-born and first-generation engineers over Native Americans isn't because of an innate American IQ deficit, a lazy and wrong explanation. A key part of it comes down to the C word, culture. Tough questions demand tough answers, and we're really serious about fixing a problem. We have to confront the truth. American culture has venerated mediocrity

Go to the office first thing in the morning. Dropped so many habits. Told my friends I'm not going to the clubs anymore. I'm not going to party anymore. I was done.

over excellence for way too long, at least since the 90s and likely longer. That doesn't start in college. It starts young. A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math Olympia champ or the jock over the valedictorian will not produce the best engineers. That upset a lot of people. But he's not wrong is the question. Is he wrong with that statement? He's not wrong. Okay, let's continue.

Trust me, I'd like to go there because I want to be around some of those guys.

Everybody is the beneficiary of you making better choices for yourself. And all these conversations we're having, homelessness, Debt, politics, division, divisiveness, who we see as villains, who we demonize, spirit of envy can destroy you because if you can't celebrate other people's successes, deep down inside, you're envious of it. It can't happen for you.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Envy just shuts down the dream machine for you. If you're upset about somebody else winning, like when any of the guys we compete with, they get a big contract, I'm so happy for them. I'm like, freaking awesome. It's exciting. You got to celebrate it. But these are things that we got to change the way we're wired if we want life to change. And I hope you make that decision tonight.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And I hope you make that decision with what you do tonight. Maybe instead of going out there acting a fool tonight, like many of us used to 20 some years ago, maybe tonight, some of you guys are going to have your universal city walk moment. And for some of you, money's not the issue. You just got to work on being a better father, better husband, better man.

Maybe for you, it's just about, you don't have a wife. You don't have a husband. You want to build a family. Where are you looking for them? Where are you at? Who are you talking to? What things are you doing? The best service we used to go to every year was Christmas Eve. No service like it. Um,
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So maybe some of these stories we're discussing could be your form of inspiration to say, man, I'm so sick and tired of being in credit card debt. Why are you? Let's go through it. How can I improve myself? Make that decision. Because one thing's for sure with my life, you're one decision away from changing. Literally, you are one decision away from changing. It's a decision away.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
You're one decision away. from changing your life. And for those of you that are crazy enough to watch us on New Year's Day, not New Year's Day, what is this? New Year's Eve. It's not Eve, but December 31st. You have some issues, but you have good issues. You have the good types of issues. But anyways, that would be my feedback to you. What story have we not covered before we wrap up?
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Give me one last story to do. Before we wrap up, do we want to go to LeBron James? Do we want to go to Human Brain? Do we want to go to video games? The reason for video games, you know, the games. Do we want to go to that?

Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
All right, well, LeBron, happy birthday to you, man. You're 40 today. LeBron James trolled for saying Christmas belongs to the NBA and NFL viewership is revealed. Rob, is this him saying that? Go ahead and play the clip, Rob. I love the NFL. I love the NFL. But Christmas is our day. Really? Yeah. By the way, he really does love the NFL. This guy was a great wide receiver in high school.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
You look at his highlight reel. The guy was freaking insane. He could have probably played. I think at one point Jerry Jones was joking with him about coming and playing for the Cowboys, and there's a bunch of images of him wearing a Cowboys jersey. However, you can say Christmas is your day, but let's see what data says LeBron.

A culture that venerates... Corey from Boy Meets World or Zack and Slater over Screech and Saved by the Bell or Stefan over Steve Urkel in Family Matters will not produce the best engineers. Fact, I know multiple sets of immigrant parents in the 90s who actively limited how much their kids could watch those TV shows precisely because they promoted mediocrity.

He declared the Laker-Warrior game on Christmas night between Curry and him drew 7.7 million viewers and peaked at 8.3 million. The NBA had its best holiday ratings in five years, averaging 5.2 million viewers, with the other games going on as well. Despite LeBron's claim, do you want to know how many people watch the NFL? Let me give you the number here.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
The average NBA game got 5.2 million views. The average NFL game got 24.2 million views on Netflix. Even as both were blowouts, not good games, they were terrible games, the NFL's aggressive holiday schedule includes game on five separate days during week 17, a stark contrast to league's previous avoidance on Christmas. And that's the NFL product for you.

They couldn't play in New York. They couldn't play in Illinois. But... The great governor, Ron DeSantis, created a community and a platform where the NBA, who was super left BLM everywhere, said you can come and host your playoffs in Florida. Gotta love that. Isn't that great?

Isn't that great? Good for you. You have 50 choices for states, and you chose the state that got the most criticism during COVID. Because that was the only state you could have your NBA playoffs. I don't know if that's a full-on championship. I think that has an asterisk.

The biggest dispute there is the field goal percentage because LeBron's field goal percentage and three-point, he improved his game and evolved multiple times. Uh, but you know, the amount of eyeballs, the NBA lost the last 12 years, 48% goes to the face of the league and the face of the league is LeBron James.

who raise their kids according to one model versus the other. Be brutally honest. Normalcy doesn't cut in the hyper-competitive market.

Let's see here. 526, gang, it's great to have you. Not a lot has happened last week, just so you know. Nothing. I mean, it's not like there was a massive H-1B visa debate.

That's the work culture we have cut out for us rather than wallowing in a victimhood and just wishing or legislating alternative hiring practices into existence. Look at the amount of views this tweet gets. 115 million views a tweet. Now go to my response, which upset a lot of people. If you can go back. So I said the following. I said as an immigrant from Iran, I saw this as an edge.

Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
I didn't mind working 80 hours a week. I didn't mind the competition. All I wanted was a shot. This used to be the American way. Time to return to it. Take a minute to read it. By the way. When I say working 80 hours a week, I worked 80 hours a week. In my 20s and 30s, I worked 80 hours a week, and I had no problem doing it. I'm on the road six months out of the year.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
When you're on the road six months out of the year building a national insurance agency, it's very tough. And by the way, you're building an insurance company regulated in 50 states, high-volume recruiting. We go from 66 agents to 60,000 insurance agents, dealing with every department of insurance that's led and typically ran by somebody who is a liberal. Think about it.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
They don't like people like us is what we have to deal with. But then this prompted people to get upset and say a bunch of different things. If you go back up, Rob, up top, I said something about on another tweet I said something about, what's your biggest, I don't know, go back above that right there, the one right above it. Keep going, keep going, keep going.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Keep going, Rob, keep going a little bit higher. I think this is the one. This lady says, kindly go a little lower. Working 80 hours a week is not a healthy role model. No problem. Quite frankly, you choose your role models for you and your kids, which is your job as a parent. Whoever you edify it is what it is.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
And I said, respectfully, both the app and the forum you're using were built by a founder and executive team that worked 80 hours a week for many years. Also, our founding fathers worked very hard. And I put 80 hours a week. And a community note says, we don't know if they worked 80 hours a week or not. You just have to realize they worked a lot more than 80 hours a week.

These guys are trying to survive is what they're trying to do. By the way. So then while we're doing this, me and the research team go a little bit deeper into this. And these are some of the numbers that comes up, okay, when you think about what America goes through.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
10%? So these are guys that start a company, and it becomes a billion-dollar company. Do you know the number to this? Were you in the room when we talked about it? I was not. Okay. The number isn't 10%, not 20%, not 30%. Rob, if you want to pull this up, 55% of America's billion-dollar startups have an immigrant founder.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
Why? Now, here's what some people will say. They'll say the H-1B visa takes job away from Americans, but anybody can start a company. Founding a company doesn't have to be an immigrant to do it. Somebody that's born in America can do it. So why are so many startup founders immigrants? Then we're going to look at to see what percentage of Fortune 500 companies are ran by immigrants or their child.
PBD Podcast
Elon & Vivek H1-B Visa Debate, Trudeau's Ministers Meet Trump, Late Night Ratings Drop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 526
So meaning you came here in 60s, you started a company in 70s. Your son ends up building a company that becomes a Fortune 500 company. You know what that percentage was? Forty-five percent of Fortune 500 companies are ran by an immigrant or their children. So you look at this data. Then we continued going.

You probably don't want to have a fight and a feud with her. You mean to tell me when the husband does what he does, right? Like the other day, we're looking at something that happened with us. A former employee... did some stuff with his wife where the money was paid to his wife but not to him.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So he wasn't, you know, technically in his eyes, like, hey, I'll give you this relationship, but you got to pay me a sidekick, you know, money to my wife and don't boy to pay to me. So the paper trail is not going to come to me for me to be guilty. Do it that way. Wink, wink. No one will know. And if you do that, I'll keep bringing business back to you. It's shady, right?

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Yeah, I mean, that's the part that's kind of weird. You brought up NVIDIA, so maybe we'll just go into this NVIDIA conversation here. Rob, NVIDIA dropped yesterday. Can you go pull up how much market cap it lost? I think it lost, if I'm not mistaken, $420 billion of valuation yesterday. Can you look up what it lost? Okay, I'm sorry, $600 billion in market cap, the biggest in the history of U.S.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Now, it looks like a big number. They're going to make it up in no time, but still, for one day, they lose $600 billion because a direct competitor from China called DeepSeek comes out And they're released. One of our guys got it. He is using it. I don't want to give his name out, but one of our guys is using it. Rob, you're laughing for a specific reason.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
One of our guys is using it, and he hands the phone over to Rob. And this guy cannot stand it. you know, what the Chinese, and he is not a fan of what they're doing. And he looks at the app and he says, this is pretty good. It's pretty good as good as it is with ChadGBT, you know, and he's kind of putting all this stuff to see what it says.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And then you find out, the market finds out that they were able to build DeepSeek on $6 million, right? Can you imagine how annoying it is to see you build your house for $50 million and a guy next door builds the same house for $700,000? That's got to be frustrating. What construction company did you find to build this?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So they build it for $6 million, and then they ask Trump about, Rob, is this the one where they ask him about deep seek, where he gives his, this is the one?

I'm getting a call, like five phone calls, back to back. Why is somebody calling me from Washington? Back to back to back to back to back to back to back. Finally, I realize it's got to be an emergency. You have a call from Air Force One? Oh, what was it? What do you think? Hey, just want to let you know, we're watching you. Great job. Message, Jesse. From Air Force One, getting a call. What?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You know what I like about what Trump said, and Tom, I'll come to you. I like when Trump is standing saying, yeah, this is competition. It's almost like allowing your own guys to be like, why don't you do something about it? Let's go ahead and get ahead of it. We've always been better. Let's take the lead. Let's see what's going to happen.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
But there's nothing wrong that someone's able to do something cheaper. Whether he's doing that because... He's trying to use that as a lever to negotiate with China or TikTok or whatever. Trump is always five, six, you know, 10 steps ahead of the other person that he's negotiating with. There is a reason why he wasn't critical of them building that $6 million. There's a reason for it.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
What that reason is, we will find out probably in the next 90 days, but not today. Tom, your thoughts.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Here's the point, though. Who has this kind of time? Everybody, when they make it, they're big shots. I don't have time for this. I don't have time for that. The level of urgency he and his team have right now, it's so impressive to have that, where the opposition, there's a clip we're going to play here in a minute, where CNN's host doesn't know what to say. It's like, that can't be true.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Anyway, I see your point. You're saying don't force that? Because maybe in his district, you have a relationship with Elon Musk. I mean, one of the famous clips of Elon Musk many, many years ago, he says, what we're building here is open source. If you think you can do better than that or not, are you saying...
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
that is not a good thing, or are you saying the government shouldn't force somebody to release that because it's a form of no longer having a patent and protection of a patent?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Tom, they've been. I mean, if you think about big pharma, these big pharma companies with the pharmaceutical that they're releasing, they're going back with lobbyists and allowing to extend a patent on a... That's exactly... And the FDA and NIH is exactly an example of why it doesn't work.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
But then there's a contradiction there. So what is the right move? Because is the right move... limiting the timeline of a patent is the right move to say everything becomes open source. It's a form of a debate with the NCA, right? The non-compete or the non-solicitation agreement. Hey, let's get rid of all of it.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
But then, you know, then the business owner doesn't have a motive to build something because anybody can take their client I'm trying to see where you're going because you're not going there for no reason. What are you thinking?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
This is the same old Donald Trump. No, it's not. Actually, the American people are seeing him in a different way. And today's podcast is going to be a special one. Why? Because I respect anybody who's on the opposing ends politically. Let's just say everyone knows where I stand politically, capitalist, free enterprise, free market, family, conservative, certain values that we have.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
By choice, by choice. By choice. Open source by choice.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Let them, like, allow them to. Allow them to. I think enforcing is one thing. By the way, when somebody says open source, to me it shows confidence. That's how I process it. But I also understand a business owner saying, look, man, we spend millions of dollars creating this patent and this whatever software that we have. Allow me a three-year run rate. Allow me a two-year run rate.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Allow me a five-year run rate. Okay, let's negotiate the terms. What I don't like in big pharma is the fact that I have a 20-year run rate. And then from the moment that 20-year expires, the medicine goes from being worth 10 grand a year to $2.48 or $26. That's the part I have a problem with. And that is due to lobbyists helping these guys extend the patent. That's a big problem for me here.

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Adam, did you have any thoughts?

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I get a DM from Ro Khanna's team. I think your team was a reach out. I'm like, hey, would you guys entertain the IT? I said, absolutely. So then obviously we make it work. Tony speaks to your team.

Is that email public? I'd love to read it.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
That's pretty impressive to do that. And at the moment when you send it, you don't know whether Elon's one day going to buy this or not or if that email's going to be exposed to anybody.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Who did you send the email to?

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
This is the one you want. This is the one you want. What did Elon say when he saw that email? Did he call you? Did you guys speak about it?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
That's interesting. Were you able to find it or no? I'm looking right now. Yeah, that's impressive to me.

Adam, I'm asking you a question. What would you like to see happen? I would like to see it banned. You would like to see it banned in the States?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
That's what I'm asking. You know what I would be curious about? And I'd be curious to know what you think because it's a, by the way, I rarely say this. Very good question you asked. So I just want to make sure you guys can clip this for Adam and put it there because this was a good question. But I will say this part for you to see what you're going to say about this.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So to me, if I'm Trump, one of the leverages I'm using is the following thing. And by the way, you know who will be behind this? Zuck, Musk, Google, everybody will be behind this. What if he negotiates? And I don't even know if this could happen or not because of how they're wired. DeepSeek is now available in America, right? That was designed where? In China. No problem.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
What if Trump says it's banned? All your stuff moving forward is banned in the States until you allow Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter, all of that to be available in China. Could Trump put that kind of a sanction in place that none of your businesses can do business in America until you let all of our social media companies in your country?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Why should we care?

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So who the hell is this guy? Is he trying to confuse everybody? But it's great to have you on the podcast. Appreciate it. Appreciate you coming out.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Yeah, I would love to see. By the way, this is the email rap that we were talking about. Is this the email? Yes. You know, Ro Khanna to Vijay. But this seems like a violation of the First Amendment principles. If there's a hack of classified information of other information that could expose a serious war crime at the New York Times was to publish it.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I think the New York Times should have that right. A journalist should not be held accountable for the illegal actions of the source unless they actively aided. The hacks or the restricted distribution of that material, especially regarding the presidential seems candidate seems not in the keeping of the principles of New York Times versus Solomon.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I say this is a total Biden partisan and convinced he didn't do anything wrong. But the story now has become more about censorship than relatively innocuous emails. And it's become a bigger deal than it would have been. It is also leading to serial serious efforts to contain. Curtails Section 230, many of which would have been a mistake.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I believe Twitter itself should curtail what it recommends to or puts in training news and your policy against QAnon groups. It's all good. It's a hard balance. But in the heat of presidential campaign, restricting the summation of newspaper articles, even if New York Post is far right, seems like it will invite more backlash than it'll do good. Vinny, you seem like you want to say something.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Of course. Likewise. So gang, obviously we have a lot of stories. We'll go through here. Some of the stuff with deep seek AI. I want to see, get your thoughts on it. You're in that world. The CNN clip I talked about earlier. Then Elon and Vivek with what happened. Vivek responded to it yesterday with Jesse waters. Hey, are you no longer with Doge? Is it true? You got fired. What happened?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
It wasn't 67%. I think it was, to be exact, it was 67% of independents would have considered voting the other way, or the word was 67% this would have influenced the decision, not voted the other way.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
There was something about that. But I'm with it. Now, you said a few things, so let's go to the next part. That conversation right there, hey, we know this could impact the election, et cetera, et cetera, no problem. Eight in ten now think the Biden laptop cover-up changed the election. Yeah, this was the number that we saw on what people voted for. This happens, then Putin a couple days ago.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
He's being asked about Trump. And I don't know if you saw this or not what he said. Putin straight up claims that the 2020 election was now stolen. So, Rob, if you want to play this clip, go for it so we can see it. Go ahead.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
What do you think he's doing by saying, is he saying this to be on the good side of Trump? Is he saying this because he a hundred percent believes that? Is he saying this because he said this pre-election? Why do you think he's saying this?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Looking back now for 2020 elections, you know, you hear these interference. You saw the emails, the Twitter files, everything that happened. Do you think even with Zuck? Zuck is also, you know, Facebook, him coming out. I made a mistake. We made four. We gave four hundred million dollars to try to help him out.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
The Biden administration asked us to X, Y, Z. And we shouldn't have, although it was on us. Now, you're a smart guy. You're in the area with all these guys. You run into all these guys. You've met all these guys, right? Do you now look back and say, something happened in 2020. There were some games that were played in 2020 to make sure Trump didn't win.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And it gives us answer. And Vivek is very good with words. So we'll watch the clip and react to it. Then Trump reacting when somebody asked him and said, hey, you know, Musk was not happy about one of the deals that you did. What happened there? And Musk actually responds in a very straight up fashion way. No beating around the bush, just gives the answer.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Okay, so when you're saying it wasn't stolen, the 2020, you know how, who was it? Was it the 60 Minutes lady or was it the other lady? That's like, now that you're president, can you go out there and say that you lost the 2020 election? Nope, I didn't lose the 2020 election. I think it was Kristen Welker. Was it Welker? I think it was Welker, right, when she's asking that. Nope, I didn't.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Right, but specific was to him where he's like, no, it didn't happen. This is the part where, you know, everything is, you know, let's move forward. Let's move forward. Guys, let's just move forward. Let's just move forward. Let's just move forward. The mindset of let's just move forward, we don't have accountability to see what really took place.

When you look up gas prices under each president, whether you go – is it – yeah, that one right there. Look at this. So the red one is Bush, goes up to 330, started at 146, 139. Obama – goes up 368, look at Trump, stays down, look at Biden, goes up to 406. Did you get my gas prices to go any lower? No. Okay, so you definitely made oil companies a lot of money.

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
For example, you had Representative Catherine Cortez Masto from Nevada. Anyone who commits a crime should be held accountable. That's why I voted to pass the Lake and Riley Act and many others. I can give a lot of other names, but that was one of the main ones that came out. And Fetterman also backed this bill because he wants a secure border. I got a few other names.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Those who didn't, here's what AOC said. She said, in the wake of tragedy, we are seeing fundamental erosion of our civil rights. In this bill, if a person is so much as accused of a crime, if someone wants to point a finger and accuse someone of shoplifting, they would be rounded up and put into a private detention camp and sent out for deportation without a day in court.

Bro, come on. Constitution, come on. I understand that. But look, I'm an immigrant, okay? We wanted a green card. We applied for one since 84. Okay? We didn't get it while we're in Iran.

By the way, you're right. You earned the respect for doing that. You have no idea how much we respect the fact that you do that, and that's great. Stephen A. Smith is a good friend of ours. You were just on Bill Maher with Stephen A., and we've had a lot of different conversations together.

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
He came out recently and said he regrets voting for Kamala, and he was very open about it when he told you guys, to you, to Bill.

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And what's even more dangerous is if he starts 100% believing this stuff and his conviction, it's going to be more than being a debater. He's going to be a thorn. But the part that I think Tom is making a point of, and I'm with Tom on this one, is this. Look what happened with Fetterman from just a few years ago to today. What did we say about Fetterman a few years ago?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
How critical was everybody about Fetterman? We're like, who the hell is this guy? Who are you? And he beat Dr. Oz. Did he beat Oz? Yeah. Special election. Yeah. And what are you talking about, guy? Is this really guy? Is this serious? This has got to be a joke. And it's like, no, this is the guy.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And he goes, he was, if you have the view clip, Rob, he goes to visit with Trump and they're asking him, trying to wait to see what he's going to be saying. So how was it? He says, no, there was no photo ops. If you want to play this clip, go for it.

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And Rob, he explains.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You know what I would say with what he did? He's gained points and the Democratic Party fears him. And I love that because he can't be controlled. You know who else was like that? Trump. The Republican Party feared him because they couldn't control him. And that's the part where what you're saying is you have a shot at being that next, like a Manchin, a Fetterman. By the way.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
We want to see more Fettermans and more mansions, and even we would support certain things with that because you're standing. It's not going to be like I'm afraid of this guy. I've got to be making this guy happy. I've got to make that guy happy. I think there's a massive opportunity in the Democratic Party for someone like you, but it requires risk, and that risk is very, very scary.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And I understand what the risk is. It's very scary to all of a sudden be like, oh, my God. If I lose that guy, lose this money, lose that, what am I going to do with this? If all of a sudden I get this, but what you'll notice will happen, look at the risk a few people took the last four years. Let's talk about the biggest risk people took the last eight years. Number one is Trump.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
No one's taking a bigger risk than Trump in the last eight years. We have to all agree with that. That's the risk. Okay. Number two, the biggest risk I would say last eight years, I would probably put RFK on that. He took a risk, and it was a legit risk that he took.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
His own family, there's a story that came out that some of the people in his family don't want the RFK, John F. Kennedy, and MLK assassination to be released. What? What? What do you mean you don't want it to be released? You don't want to find out who killed your grandfather, your uncle, whatever the person, the lineage was. You don't want that? He took a risk. Imagine his family gatherings.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You think they're having a family reunion inviting Bobby Jr.? I don't know about that. He took a risk. Tulsi took a risk going after Hillary. And what did Hillary do? Convince the world she's a Russia asset. Till today, we're putting an event in Vegas. She's supposed to come and speak at the event. The day before the event, what was that thing that she was linked to?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Do you remember that, Rob, where she was linked to something in August where she couldn't get out? There was a quiet something?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Are you kidding me? This is not somebody that has money. So maybe Trump has the billions he can afford it. Maybe Bobby has some money as an environmental lawyer who's made some good decisions. He can't afford it. She's not a rich person. Not that I know. I don't follow her net worth. Can you type in Tulsi Gabbard net worth? I don't know how much money she's got.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
That one says $55 million to $127 million. I don't know what her net worth is. You can't believe these things. ABC says that's her net worth.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I got $10 billion. That's another risk that was taken. Musk took a risk. Joe Manchin took a risk. I would put a few guys, but watch what happened to these guys. The level of trust that the average person, like, whoa, what are you doing? But it came at a price of losing certain things as well. So I understand it's going to be tough.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
If you want to respond to that or say anything, I'd be curious to know what you're thinking right now.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I don't believe Obama's a risk taker. In 08, he wasn't. No, I think Obama was a person that in 04, you know what it's like? Here's what it was like with Obama. When LeBron was 16 years old, there's a legendary game everybody talks about. I don't know if you've heard about the story or not. Have you heard about the story? I have some. So, yeah, when LeBron is a game, Michael is playing.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Jordan is playing. LeBron's 16 years old. It's a pickup game. Have you heard about this or no?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And then they said, you've never heard about this?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Are you joking?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Yeah, so LeBron James breaks silence on legendary Michael Jordan pickup game when he was 16 years old. I was on guardable. I don't know if it's on guardable or not. It was fast. But if you go down and read the stories from what other people said about this game, right there it says, NBA superstar LeBron James has broken a silence on a legendary pickup game against Michael Jordan.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Another basketball team told the name saying he was 16-year-old, school came in, and they're like, holy shit, who is this guy? Guess what? Everybody knew this guy's going to be a superstar. But he's not Michael Jordan. But he became a superstar, okay? When Obama got up and gave that DNC speech in 04, you don't have to be left, right, center to say he's a superstar.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Everybody sat there and said, oh my God, who the hell is this guy? It's like the first time I heard the song by Carlos Santana and Wycliffe, Maria Mario. The first time I heard Desert Rose by Sting. Or the first time I heard some of these songs where you're like, Alicia Keys, when she did Fallin', you're like, that voice was like, whoa! You just get a shock. He is a once-in-a-lifetime talent.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I don't think he took a risk. I think everybody got behind him and they funded him. It's different. Bernie was a person that took a massive risk, but also with Bernie, you know what it is? There is taking the risk. There is being anti-establishment, which is a risk. Then the other side is the policies suck. People don't want socialism. People don't want to raise more taxes and do that.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You've been in the government for 40-plus years, and on your honeymoon you went to Russia. My dream isn't to go to Russia for my honeymoon. I want to go to America on my honeymoon. But you had all these other places. You chose to go to Russia. Listen, I respect you. You're a fighter. You took risks. Bad policies. That would be my differentiator.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You can disagree with that, but that's what I would say with Bernie.

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
By the way, it's almost as if somebody benefited from looking away. Weird. Isn't that weird? Because if they can do it in four days, you couldn't do it in four years. Now the people that are sitting and asking those weird questions, you got to kind of give them some credit and say, why don't you do it? Why didn't you do it? Why did you look away? Why didn't you get to it?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
This is kids we're talking about. Yeah. I mean, we're not talking about we're talking about kids here. Right. So why weren't you a little bit more proactive? Why would you think anybody left, right or center? Forget politics. What percentage of Democrats, Republicans or independents, how they vote? If we had a conversation right now, we have no there's a room of 100 people. Okay?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Left, right, center. You don't know how they voted in 2020 or 2024. What percentage of the 100 people that have kids wouldn't be for finding out those 75,000? What percentage? 100% would be for that. Without a doubt. Unless you have a mental problem. But so watch this. That's the part where I sit and think to myself, if they did it in four days, you couldn't have done it in four years?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Do you know, in business, if you need four years to protect the border and the safety of people, You would never have four years. You'd be fired after 90 days. You'd be fired after 180 days. You had four years with a blank check. The U.S. government's a blank check. We keep paying more money to them. What do you need? You couldn't figure this part out?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Now, by the way, this is the kind of stuff that, you know, in the free market, you would get sued. Literally, a business gets sued and they have to pay fines. How many times do you hear about businesses having to pay fines? XYZ have to pay this fine. XYZ have to pay... How about the opposite side? How come four years you didn't protect these? These kids permanently are damaged.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
We've seen these movies. We've seen the documentaries. They're permanently damaged. A lot of these, for the rest of their lives, when they want to get back in a relationship and a man touches them, they feel and they go back to what happened when they were kids. That's permanent damage. You know, when you go through it, you're like, hey, how am I going to handle this? You hear stories like this.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
So I don't know. Again, like you said, we don't know the numbers. You know, she's saying what Tom Holman told her, that they found 75 to 80. And when that number comes out and we see it, because so far it said they've deported how many? A thousand, right?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
The numbers we saw right now was a thousand. The one that you played a clip with the Fox News clip on the screen, it showed a thousand. If they found 75 and that can be proven, That may be the number one biggest black eye on the previous administration. Number one by a mile.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Okay, so she says that. Now, I want to say you're in the 17th district, right? Nancy Pelosi is what, in the 11th district? And Rob, can you pull up what is Nancy Pelosi's net worth? I'm just curious. Can I guess? I want to say $158 million. That means you're following very closely. What is her net worth? Might even be more than that. Should I just pull that up right now?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Well, I mean, look, again, these are things that I have a feeling if anyone's going to expose more of it, it's going to be these guys. Just listen. It's only been, today's what? A weekend. It's been literally a week. The morning of 8 days. As of one hour, it's been seven days, guys. So just, you know, we got, is it eight days? No, eight days.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Rob, so if you can play the clip with Vivek and Musk. Story comes out, hey, Musk and Vivek are not working out well together. He's going to be leaving Doge.

Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
You missed the first five seconds. Because he said, you made it three times Anthony Scaramucci. Oh. Is this the one? What happened? No, no, no. There's one that says, if you can go to another clip, he starts it off by saying, you made it three times Anthony Scaramucci did. Play this clip.

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Okay, so you think that's the reason why, and then you think Musk is like, we've got to step away, we're moving on? Look, Musk, I think... Because they were on the same page about the H-1B visa, so it's not like they were not on the same page.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I have this number here. Investopedia. I don't know if this is true or not. Investopedia says $240 million. Oh, it's way off. Well, her husband is a venture capitalist. Let's just say it's $240 million. Without pants. What is that handle on Twitter, Rob, where you can find out the trades that she makes? In advance. Pelosi tracker. Pelosi tracker.

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
No, I think in this next part, when you hire a bunch of number ones, this is what happens. It's just what happens. When you hire folks who are used to being twos and threes and fours, they make better hires than when you hire a bunch of ones. It's not an easy thing to put a bunch of ones in the room and say, go get along. It's going to be tough. So I'm not surprised that this happened.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Him and Anthony Scaramucci, very big difference between the two of them. Anthony, you know, the one part that if you think the common thread would work in under Trump The same thing Trump is attracted to ends up not working well with him. He's attracted to strong personalities.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
But those strong personalities, when they come in and they push too much, it's like, hey, listen, 40 laws of power, law number one, keep that in mind. You ain't bigger than the group right now, right? Pump the brakes. You have a role to play. Do you want to play it? You said yes, but it's not about you thinking it's about you, right? And that's kind of tough to do.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And Vivek has been a one for his entire life. Vivek went to college making $15 million. While he's at college dorms, he's in college making $15 million. Vivek's done very well for himself. And he's one valedictorian. Given a speech when he's 18 years old, he's done very well. But he went in it where he's definitely a two to Trump. He's definitely a two to Musk. Who is he a number one to?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
He has to go earn those stripes. And the one he could have been was a VP, and Trump didn't pick him as a VP. If he would have been picked him as a VP, it would be a different thing. But you know what we forget? Here's what we forget. Rob, can you pull out what's Vivek's age? Vivek Ramaswamy's age.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

He ain't going away. So he goes to Ohio. He announces he's going to be governor. Okay. They did a poll who they want to be governor when he was here last. If you remember, it was him, 42%, 45%. He's going to become the governor of Ohio. He'll do that for, you know, four, eight years. He knows the next turn is not going to be him. It's going to be J.D.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Vance ahead of him, although he'll run probably against him as a governor. And then they're going to find a way because, remember, we forget. Trump in 2020, the reason why Trump is killing it today, literally, is because he learned from his mistakes in 2020. In 2020, when he campaigned, it's a very different campaign than 2024. 2020, it's their fault. It's this. It's that. They cheated.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540

Highlighting politicians' traits so we can invest alongside Goal. get them banned from trading, $400 million invested. And this account, Rob, can you pull up to see who it's followed by?

PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
They did this. It's unfair. And that level of energy and power versus force, it's low. But then 2024, he campaigned in a very different way. And now he knows where all the bodies are buried and all that stuff. Trust me. Vivek had a crash course on what happens in politics when you deal with a bunch of players. And he's going to come out.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And a guy like that who's a student, prolific, is going to come out. And be able to come out of it. We'll forget about this within a month or two months. You'll see how it's going to happen. Literally, this is going to be forgotten about. And they're going to move on. And no one's ever going to bring it up.

He's not going away. And again, he stood on his own, which means he's going to go through the phase of being lonely for four, six years. Then they're going to say, OK, we've got to respect them. And that lonely part, most people don't have the brass to go through. It's very hard to go through that part where it's like, who the F are you? Who do you think you are?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Then they're like, okay, this guy's legit, but it's going to take about four years, unfortunately. And fortunately, he needs to do that. All right, so next thing here. Story about Susie Wiles. Rob, do we have that story in here? I don't think, okay, here we go. Trump's ice maiden, chief of staff, launches takedown of Musk. Okay, now let's see if this is true or not.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And we'll read this story and go straight into the next one here. So this is talking about Susie Wiles, I believe. Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff, first woman to hold the office. The role has taken a firm approach in her second term, denied Musk in office in the West Wing despite his role as chairman of the Doge.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Musk's team will work from the Eisenhower building and report directly to Wiles, who said, I don't welcome people who want to work solo or be a star. Wow. Wow. Known as the ice maiden. Wiles is focused on maintaining discipline and collaboration, contrasting with the chaos of Trump's first term.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Musk, often referred to as Trump's first buddy and criticized as a co-president by Democrats, remains a controversial figure in the administration. Despite pushback, Trump defends Wiles. Management calling her tough, smart, innovative, and universally admired and respected.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Wiles has also imposed a social media ban on cabinet nominees, stating all intended nominees should refrain from any social media posts without prior approval. Well, he's not going to do that. He's already posting. He runs X. How do you get him to not do that? Now, while this is happening... Trump's aides are furious with Elon Musk for trashing the $500 billion AI project.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Somebody even said he gives zero Fs. Elon Musk angered Trump's aides and allies with his criticism of $500 billion target AI project, claiming they don't actually have the money. SoftBank has well under $10 billion secured. I have that on good authority. A Trump ally described the situation, saying the problem is the president doesn't have any leverage over him, and Elon gives zero Fs.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Trump dismissed Musk's remarks stemming from a personal animosity towards opening the ICO. And here's what he said, Rob, if you want to play this clip.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Bottom. Go a little bit lower. No, Rob, go back. I'm sorry. It says 30 people that follow the same. There you go. Can you click on that? So Laura Logan, terrible. Can Mario Nafal follow as they can? Keep going a little lower. Keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower. I'm just curious to know who's following this stuff. Lower, lower. John Cena. Lower, lower. Portnoy, myself.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
I mean, he's almost Sam Altman, by the way. Right. So, Tom, how do you process this?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Who else is following that? Portnoy. Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going. 901,000 people are curious to know the kind of trade she's making. I mean, you're down the street from her. And you guys probably see each other a lot at different events. I do. How do you feel about this?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Vinny.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Yeah, I'm good. Yeah, I would say in this position, I applaud Susie. It's a very, very, very hard job that she has.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
And you know why it is? Because both Elon and Trump, it would have worked with a personality like Kamala. It would have worked with a personality like maybe even some of the guys on the Republican side. It would have worked with probably somebody like Nikki Haley. It doesn't work with the personalities that they're used to picking up the phone and calling the person directly to solve a problem.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Do you understand what I'm saying? So, yeah, stop Trump from calling the guy directly. For 78 years, like, hey, what the hell are we doing with this permit here? Like, what are we doing with this guy here? You got to get this out of the way. Now for her to say... They got to go through me. And then Musk. Musk doesn't wait. He just tweets. Oh, you need to approve all your tweets through me.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. For sure. I'm sending you away. I'll be on that. Now I'm sending all my tweets going to get approved by you.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
But again, that means someone has to pivot and change.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Who will that be? It's not going to be someone has to compromise. Will it be Ilan? Will it be Susie? Will it be Trump? One of them has to. Of course. One of them has to. We don't know who it's going to be. It ain't going to be Trump.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
It's going to be the president.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
She will resign.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Who's going to budge? Let me tell you, to have a person like that, because one thing you know about her, like you have to choose between everybody that you're working with, who is 100% you. Who is more 100% Trump, her or Elon? Her. There you go. Of course. What percentage of Elon is supportive of Trump? Like everything he does, he does for Trump. What percentage? 20. 20?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Let's say 90% and 10% is her legacy and her father.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Okay. Dude, you can't lose a flag carrier like that.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Because it's easier to have that leverage in conversation with Suzy. You can't sit there and say, hey, that's the challenge. It's going to be, if you create a doge, it has to be ran by a cowboy. it has to be ran by a cowboy. But only because only cowboys got the balls to go out there and get that done. You're fired. We're getting rid of you guys. This department shut down 100,000 people done.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Do you think a proper person that did everything right is going to be able to have the balls to do that? No. That's a tough job for what Elon needs to do. But Trump's going to have to choose. It's going to be tough.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
That's my point. If she lasts all four years... Do you know what is the most attractive thing about Suzy? Do you know what is the number one?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
No, but do you know what the number... Because you're going to go physical. Don't dismiss that. No, I'm not saying that. What do you think is the number one most attractive thing about Suzy? It's not even close. If they're watching, it's not even close. What is the most attractive thing about Suzy Tom?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
What is it? I think she's humble. She knows she's a number two. What do you think it is? Loyalty? What do you think it is? In my opinion. You know what I think it is? She wants no attention.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
She could care less about the camera. While everybody's like, put the camera, camera, camera, camera, camera, camera. No, I don't want to talk. When he won, he's like, hey, Susie, say a couple words. No, I'm good. I don't need to do anything. She kind of walked back. I remember that. That was a beautiful moment that I guarantee he won't forget.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
No, you can't find people like that. I had people that I hired. They wouldn't let you take pictures with Trump, and they would take the pictures with Trump. I remember that. No, no, no, you guys can't. But hey, President Trump. Hey, look what. You can't have people. Those are not flag carriers. Those are selfish users. That it's about them. Susie is tough to find.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
It's a very hard thing to find people like this. Very, very, very hard to find people like Susie who wants no attention. Listen, if you naturally get it, there's nothing wrong with it. We're not sitting here and saying, well, you know, someone's going to say, well, you guys are getting a bunch of eyeballs. Yeah, but I'm not trying to be this job.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
This job is perfect for her. And for Trump, he needs some people. Because a lot of people have Trump's job because they're trying to check to see what their resume is going to look like and what the next book they're going to write and what offer they're going to get from Simon & Schuster. And I'm going to be able to do this on Legacy, Legacy, Legacy.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
She's like, look, my dad was a stud and he was a killer at what he did. I've been the camera for a long time. I don't need any of that stuff. I'm happy. I'm comfortable. I simply want to serve. Tough to find people like this.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
That's exactly what Joan Amanda said, is the fact that they're great, they're charming, they're strong, but they don't need to brag about the fact that they saved the free world. Solid. Last thing, we'll wrap up. Rob, can you play the clip with CNN hosts? Which one is that, Rob, that you have up before I go to the next one?
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm joking around. Oh, that's right. So this was the one when Trump talked about three terms. A guy named Zeus sent me a MNAC talking about Trump's going to be serving three terms because there's a story that came out. that says congressman pushes amendment to allow Trump a third term, but not Obama, Clinton, or Bush because they vote the two. There's this congressman.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Where's he based out of, Rob, by the way? Let me see this here. Andy Ogles from Tennessee proposed an amendment to allow president to serve three terms, provided they did not serve two consecutive terms. The proposal would allow Donald Trump and Joe Biden to both be able to serve two terms, three terms, because there was a disruption.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
But again, it would exclude Barack Obama, Clinton and Bush because they already served two. Who knows if it's going to hate joked about this. Go and play this clip, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Selena Gomez Cries, DeepSeek AI, AOC Insider Trading, Trump Tariffs Colombia w/ Ro Khanna | PBD Podast | Ep. 540
Here's what I want to show you. If you want to go, Rob, to the CNN clip with the lady where the guy is showing percentage, he said, this is the same Trump. No. So a host of CNN calling another host at CNN fake news, which indirectly, but I just want you to watch this and judge it for yourself.

Cozying up next to Ghislaine Maxwell. Sex trafficking. So look, the point is, you know, when you look at a paper, And you wonder, are they really winning? Are they really advancing? Are they really pushing an agenda? Or are people really done with this? So this is the credibility of a paper like The Atlantic.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
But the narrative of being controlled is happening by buying magazines like this and getting everybody to realize this child sex trafficking stuff is just fake. Yeah. That doesn't happen. We don't have hundreds of thousands of missing children every year. That movie, Sound of Freedom, was just a movie, Vinny. That island with that Epstein guy, they just love giving massages.

So now the question becomes what?

RFK calls to ban one of Big Pharma's most powerful tools, rattle drug makers despite uncertain political prospects. By the way, if he does this, half of mainstream media companies will have to fire half their people, and the other half will go out of business or be sold to somebody else. It's going to be devastating if he ends up doing this.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
The question is what? Why did this happen? You know why? You know what labor was in China at that time per hour? Do you know what it was? Nothing. 50 cents per hour.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Of course. 50 cents per hour. So allowing China to join the World Trade Organization, who did it help? China. No. Of course China. But who else did it help? It also helped us because we get way cheaper goods. Who did it help in America, though? Walmart. It helped the rich. Because the rich got richer. it allowed the rich to say, why am I hiring people in America?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Let me send these jobs off to what? To China, overseas, somewhere else, 50 cents. And do you know, for the first time in the last two years, a minimum wage for low-wage employees is now lower in Mexico than it was in China by 50 cents. By 50 cents or slower. So that's why China's building their car manufacturing in Mexico called the Hafusan, right?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
But if you look at China, they're paying 50 cents per labor. Rich gets richer. Poor gets poorer. These jobs leave America. And you know what these tariffs are now doing? You know what these tariffs are now doing? These tariffs are now forcing people to bring those jobs back to America.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
One by one by one. We made China a behemoth, allowing them to join the World Trade Organization, knowing companies were hiring slave labor for 50, 70 cents an hour while those jobs are 10, 15, 20 bucks an hour in America. That's how all these jobs were lost. So for the people that are bitching and whining about tariffs, be patient. You want those jobs coming back. The rich got richer, trust me.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I'm a beneficiary of it. The rich got richer in a very big way. What happened to our middle class since 2001? What was the average median income in 2001? How different is it compared to today? Can you go and look it up, Rob? Median income in 2001. What was the median income in 2001? Median income 2001, $42,000. Go look at what it is today. So that's $42,000 24 years ago. Just put 2025.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
What is it now? 25 years later, it's not even doubled. It's gone up 80%. Okay, go to 2021 and type in who was the richest man in 2021. Who was the richest man in 2001? What was it? How much billion? 58 billion? Who's the richest man today, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
350 billion dollars. So the wealth seven-axed But the median income only went up 80%. Why? It's cheaper labor in China. Well, it's basic mathematics.

Even if you sell 100,000. 100,000 is not a lot. 100,000 at $5 billion. Is what? $5 billion. I think it's half a trillion dollars. So if 1,000 is 5 billion, 10,000 is 50 billion, 100,000 is 500, they would have to sell a million at 5 million to get 5 trillion, which they're not going to get 2 million.

When I wrote this book, I wrote it because over the years I've done a lot of business plans for a lot of different people, and I noticed there's 12 blocks that you need.

It's either only focused on logic.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
No, no. Is it $10 million? I think it's $100 million. So $100 million. I think if you're $50 million of liquid cash or investable cash that you have, if you put 10% of it and you know the country is going to be growing... Mm-hmm. Maybe $50 million plus?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566

Just 23 years ago was only 41.8%. Damn. Exactly. It went from 41.8% to 51.4%, 18 to 40, single.

A 2022 Pew survey revealing only 34% of single women were looking for romance compared to 54% of single men. That's not a good matchup. Vinny, your thoughts on this since you did a lot of research on this. What do you want to say about the story?

I love the fact there's like, hey, what do you think about this? What do you think about that? It's very normal for us. Nothing about the threat I'm reading

That's amazing. No, that is the point. No, that's not the point. Of course it's the point. The point is you don't know what it's like to be single out there. And see, half the girls you meet are doing OnlyFans. Adam, where are you looking for these people? I'm not even saying me, Pat. No, but that's the point, though. Where are you looking?

PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
For who, though? In what community?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Yes, that is true. That is not true, though. What percentage of women did OnlyFans 20 years ago? What percentage of women did OnlyFans 20 years ago? Do you know how long prostitution has been around? It's the oldest profession. How long has prostitution been around? Forever. Okay, then. So go to how long that's been around. The trait of prostitution or whatever you want to talk about it.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Ten seconds after the invention of money. How long have drugs been around? How long has... But you know what you sound like to me? You sound like a little victim is what you sound like. You sound like a little victim.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
No, no, no. So go ahead. I'm the victim. Go ahead. Wait a minute. Any guy who listens to this and buys into the rhetoric that's being sold, hear them out. But if you buy it, you sound like a victim. That's what you sound like. When somebody talks like that, everybody's this and everybody's that and everybody's that. You sound defeated. You sound like a victim. You sound weak.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You know what it's like? It's like when I ran an insurance business for the longest time, all my guys would come to me Monday morning. And it would say, you know what it is? All these guys with leads and insurance, there are no more people that want to buy life insurance. Haven't you seen the stats? And they're just life insurance has been declining.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Do you know when I started a life insurance company? In 2009. Do you know what was going on in 2009? Do you know what was happening with insurance companies like AIG? What was going on with AIG in 2009? AIG is about to go out of business. TARP, recession, trouble. Do you know what data came out saying that the life insurance industry went from 500,000 agents to 174,000 agents?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You're never going to be able to get women to sell insurance. Oh, really? Yeah, okay. Well, look, I saw how... buyers and customers will receive the sale coming from a woman versus a man. And I think there's a lot of market. If there's 174,000 agents right now, we used to have a half a million more.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
There's got to be a major demand for insurance because I looked at the data and I said, that's where we're going. We're going to build an insurance company. While my competitors were saying there's no more market for life insurance, we licensed 50,000 people and sold the business for a quarter of a billion dollars.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
While I'm around people that sound like you talking about insurance and there's no more need for it, what's the point? Is what you're saying with Tinder With all these dating apps making it tougher for guys to find girls because they're easier, you don't know how many people they've been with. Yes.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Is it tougher if I go on a date right now with Tinder and the script is, you know, you're the first guy I've gone on a date with Tinder. You think I believe that? Of course not. But where am I looking? Versus if I'm really interested and wanted to get married, guess who I'm talking to? The people around me.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I'm getting in different communities, I'm going to different markets, just like if an insurance. If you want to sell a $20 million life insurance policy, and you want to go to people that are rich, do you think you're going to find them at a nightclub, or do you think you're going to find them at a country club?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Do you think you're going to find a $20 million life insurance policy going to a Starbucks, or do you think you're going to find it going to the hotel we were at, which was whatever that hotel was? If we go to Four Seasons, or if I go to Networking at Mar-a-Lago, if I go, where do you think I'm going to find these types of clients?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You think having lunch at Mar-a-Lago, maybe I'm going to be around some clients that can do some premium financing? Yes. It's where you go to look for them. So your points you're making, although they may be valid because accessibility is more prevalent today than ever before, but prostitution and all this stuff has been around for a very, very long time.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
To sound like a victim and revert back to the sauce talking point that you had 24-7, of course you ain't going to get married. And that's okay. By the way, I don't care if you never get married. But the idea of playing the position of, I want to have a family, and then you talk like this. I want to have a family, and then you talk like this. Who are you?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Like, you know, we had this conversation a year and a half ago when I said the following. It's so hard to do. It's so hard to do this message here. Whenever you give a message and you watch, like we're in a room, and I'm talking to my guys. And they're saying to me, well, Pat, we don't think we should have a full-timers meeting on the 1st of January. I don't know why you do that every year.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Every year on January 1st, I would host a full-timers meeting on the 1st at 8 a.m. And I'm running an office, sales agents that are mainly in their mid to late 20s, some of the early 30s. Who the hell in their 20s wants to go to a manager's meeting with a freaking crazy guy named Patrick Bedavid January 1st at 8 a.m.? Who do you think wants to go to it? Nobody. Nobody does. Nobody does.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
But that was my way of lowering the number of DUIs my guys would get because I know what happens on December 31st because I used to party a lot back in the days. So, you know, when we're having a conversation, you know what the conversation will be like. So what time do you think we should have this meeting? I think we should start it at 11 a.m.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I think we should do barbecue and start it at 10 a.m. I think we should do it. What's going on, guys? What is that?
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I think we should play that noon and do barbecue for everybody. And then you know how many people in the room would agree that we should do it at 8 a.m.? Less than 5%. And guess what I'm doing a meeting at? I'm doing it at 8 a.m. 95% of people hated me for it. I'm still hosting a meeting. I wasn't married. I didn't have kids. It wasn't like I'm a married guy. You don't understand what it is to be.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I was as single as one could be. And I'm still hosting a meeting. Right? People showed up. And then we held a meeting. It was always the best meeting ever because it would be a high level of preparation. Be very careful who you're entertaining that's validating your point to make you feel like you're validated. Be very careful what mob makes you think you're right.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Be very careful what community gives you the attention you need for you to feel like you're the right guy. You're right on this. Be very careful. Who do you want to win over? There are certain people that have no interest in winning over. You know, and... This has been around for a long time. When I didn't want to get married, guess what I want to go to? The places you go to.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
When I eventually wanted to, I wanted to find a different community. Different lifestyle. Different people that have made different choices. And then you sit there and you're like, okay, let's see what's going on here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Rachel Zegler. There's a line outside of the theaters around the nation just to see her, according to her, because she's such an incredible actress and knows how to really activate the feelings we had as kids and watching this or our daughters or, you know, take our family to watch the movie. But unfortunately, that's not what the market said. It's heartbreaking to see her go through this.
PBD Podcast
Signal War Plans Scandal EXPLODES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
a guy that probably has a strong personality, a guy that's probably going to be within my community where they're at, I pray to God to watch over her. I pray to God for her to have good people in her life. My job is to do whatever I can to make that environment more protective of her, hopefully set an example so later on she's able to make some good choices in her life.

It's so much easier and attractive to just live a life of just for me. It is a lot easier life. Trust me. If I right now chose to drop everything I got going on with the family and the kids and everything, I would have way more time to run my companies. I'd probably make a lot more money. And I'd probably have a more fun life. Living a selfish life.

All right, cool. Live that life.

And the way you live, you're going to attract that audience. Whoever connects you, you're attracting people like yourself. What you tell them, you're going to get them to live the life that you've lived versus giving them a different direction and saying, you may want to consider this. That's how I'm wired. I don't have a problem with the debate. We do this all the time.

That's how bad the market is. It has no sympathy for you. Let's find out who you guys are. Maybe you're better than what DC was paying you. And we'll filter those guys out.

So now, Stephen A., how far are you going to go with this?

You can pause the recording. Alright, so, Stephen A., they don't like you. It's that simple, bro. They don't like you. The same way they don't like RFK, who's now in Trump's administration. The same way they didn't like Tulsi. The same way they don't like Rogan. The same way they don't like Musk. The same way they don't like any of us.

Because either you get in line or shut the hell up, is what he's saying. I wouldn't say that to you. That's what he's saying. And that's not in your nature. But if you're going to shine in that party... You have to lock it up and listen to what they got to tell you. And it's not in your DNA. It's just not. That's not in your DNA. So what are you going to do?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Create a new community that's been tried. They don't like your type. So you have a couple choices. One. Try to fight it and see what they do. You're not going to get their money. You don't have that kind of money. You need billions. You need a billion and a half. They're not going to give you the money. None of those guys are going to support you financially. They're not.

Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Because the candidates on the left are usually bought by someone with favors. Yesterday I had Nicolas Ferreira here from Brazil. And he's talking about how this guy named Gilberto Kassab, who is the leader of the worker party in Brazil, who used to be the mayor of Sao Paulo, who is the most powerful man in Brazil right now because he is the leader of the political party that's on the center.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
And the center means that you give them money and favors, they'll do anything you want them to do, but they have a lot of control. Right now they have a lot of control. He says, my worry is, the closer he gets to Bolsonaro, he's going to ask for a favor. I wonder how big that favor is and how dirty that favor is that contradicts our values and principles. Are you going to do that?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
I don't know if you will. So, you know what's going to happen to you? You're eventually, when you're in your room, in your house, by yourself, nobody else around you, you're eventually going to be talking to your mom, because I know how much she means to you, and having a conversation saying, what do I do, Mom? Do I sit this one out? Do I trust my gut and go? What do I do?

If you came as a center-right candidate, which I think what you are, you know you are.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
If you came out as a center-right guy, I think it would be interesting to see you run in 2028 and see what happens. Because I think if you run on the left, they will destroy you. Because they do not like your type. They like Biden-type. Sie lieben den Yes-Mann. Du bist nicht dieser Typ. Also, was wirst du tun? Wirst du das immer noch spielen?

Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Du arbeitest deinen Weg dazu, hier konservativ zu sein, sehr bald. Weil du viele konservative Tendenzen gezeigt hast. Du bist es. But I know the fear of what could happen if you do something like that. Anyways, that's my thoughts on this. James Carville going after... It's just kind of like when a young guy... Because Stephen A. is young in politics. And James is 80 years old.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
It's when a young guy comes up in business. And I was coming up and I started getting vocal and all this stuff. And I never forget when I wrote a... You ever hear me talk about when I wrote my Jerry Maguire 16-page, you know, 16 points, whatever? Einer meiner alten Freunde, ich habe versucht, diesen Vorschlag zu suchen, den ich seit 15 Jahren geschrieben habe.

Letzte Woche hat ein alter Freund, den ich mir selbst nennen werde, aber ihr wisst alle, wer er ist. Send me this letter that I wrote to him. That's it?

Everybody, who do you think you are? Some lady named Susan. All these people losing their minds. I said, okay, this is what you wanted. I never, I never wanted to leave. I never wanted to leave. Never. I love the company. I love the people. That's the same exact thing Stephen A. is going. He eventually is going to be forced to leave that party. They don't know how to control him.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
They can't stand him. They can't stand people like him. Cannot stand people like Stephen A. People like Stephen A. in the Democratic Party are hated. They're not welcome. Period. Full stop. What are you going to do?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
So, who's more loyal to their party values? Are Democrats more loyal to Democrats or are Republicans more loyal to Democrats? Democrats to Democrats. Okay, so why do you say that?

Listen, if we are able to get some money out, I think we need to give a refund back to people because we effed up spending their money. So what has happened is, Republicans are like, it's actually a better idea. Can you prove it? I'm open to it. Democrats are like, no, Stephen A., that may be a better idea, but you have to listen to us because we know. And you can't break through in that party.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
You cannot break through in that party. They're not letting that happen. The Republicans had a massive breakthrough because they had a guy with a big backbone that stood up against them. And what he had, he had money. He had fame. He had money. He had street smart. He came up in a city filled with gangsters, tough guys, some criminals.

Rob, can you go back? Because Rachel Maddow responded and said MSNBC made a massive mistake, etc. Go to the new president. I want to know who that is. Go to the new president. There's an article. I just saw something right there. Ruthless something. What's that Daily Mail article? Yeah, click on that. The ruthless new MSNBC boss who gutted Joy Regis 10 days after taking the job. Okay.

So she called the shot. Rebecca Cutler has officially named, Rob, go a little lower, I can't read it. Amazon announced Cutler, 45 years old, was officially promoted on Wednesday, February 20th. Mark Lazarus, who's the head of Comcast's spin-off company, told staff in a memo earlier, go lower. In a short time, Rebecca was the interim president.

Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
It will be clear to me that she has big picture strategic view and the right leadership skills to ensure MSNBC, Brandenburg, and Lazarus. Since taking charge, Cutler has successfully stabilized the network's ratings following a major post-election decline.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
The recovery has been largely attributed to the network star anchor Rachel Maddow making regular primetime appearances during Trump's first 100 days. Most recently, as President Cutler canceled Joey Reed. Also this week, network axed another three of its stars, showing after Nixon-Reeds program, who are the other three stars. Go a little lower to see who they have.

Katie Fang, Jonathan Capehart, and Ayman Mohleddin. I don't know who these guys have. Jonathan Capehart got fired? Can you see who that is, so we know who Jonathan Capehart is? Because apparently he knows... Er ist ein guter junger blauer Mann, der nicht jung ist.

There's nothing that's changing here. And apparently Rachel Maddow was responding. Rob, if you got the Rachel Maddow clip, trying to defend because she is not happy about what they did. And she called out MSNBC.

Lass mich dich fragen. Lass mich dich fragen. Wie viel Dirt denkst du, dass Rachel Maddow auf MSNBC hat?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
The reason why you can talk like that is because she probably holds them hostage. So maybe she's got something that they fear, that if they fire her, and maybe to give her one day a week for how much money? 25 mil. Can you pull this up to just verify how much Rachel Maddow makes per year?

For the new president to get promoted 12 days ago, and they make a big call out, firing Joy Reid, and you don't defend the new president, and you defend the talent, which means you're not defending a company that's paying your payday, that means you're holding them hostage on something that, you know, maybe she knows where the bodies are buried, and she pretty much got everything she wanted, and in that contract, in return for 25 a year, for once a week,
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
She wrote probably an agreement to say I will never disclose anything, whatever, whatever, whatever. This is the vibe it gives me, because capitalism doesn't work if a person's not... You're paying this person 25 million a year, okay? Rob, can you pull up und sehe die größten Sponsoren an Rachel Maddows Shows. Wer sind die fünf größten Sponsoren an Rachel Maddows Shows?

Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Ich bin eigentlich interessiert, um jetzt Geschäftsforschung zu machen. Können wir nur die Top-Sponsoren an Rachel Maddows Shows sehen? Es ist nicht schwer, zu denken, wie das Geschäft funktioniert. Wenn du mir 25 Millionen pro Jahr bezahlt hättest, aber bei Sponsoren nur 20 Millionen pro Jahr, würdest du mir 25 Millionen bezahlen? Warum würdest du das tun? And not only that, for once a week.

Researchers looked at the 25-foot radius around high performers at a large technology firm and found that these workers boosted performers in co-workers by 15%. That's spillover. Positive Spillover translated into an estimated $1 million in additional annual profits according to new research from Dylan Miner, an assistant professor of managerial economics and decision sciences at Kellogg.

So imagine how much... Okay, Rob, do me a favor. Go type in rate card for Rachel Maddow's sheets to do commercials on. Rate card for Rachel Maddow's... You know, rate card for doing ads.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
It's okay, totally fine, but it's once a week. So let's go to what the advertising rate card is. Can you pull up how much it is for me to do... Go specifically to Rachel Maddow... Okay, jetzt muss ich das hier finden. Was kostet es? Können Sie alle schauen, ob Sie etwas finden können? Alle machen ihre eigene Forschung, sehen, was Sie finden können. Sie gehen zu ChatGBT.

Ich möchte wissen, was kostet es, ein 30-Send-Kommerz auf Rachel Maddows Show zu machen? Wie viel kostet das Spot? Ist es 10.000? Ist es 50.000? Ist es 100.000? Lasst uns die Mathematik nach hinten machen. Wie viel kostet es? Es sagt schon, dass es ungefähr 4.500 Dollar kostet. Okay, also 2017 waren es 4.500 Dollar. Und wie viele Zuschauer hatte sie damals? Was war ihre Zuschauerin damals?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Okay, let's say it's 10 grand today for 30 seconds. Let's just do that. How long is Rachel Maddow's show once a week? How long is the show once a week? One hour. Okay, so in a one-hour show, it's normally how many minutes of ad? In a one-hour show,
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
How many minutes is ads in a one-hour show? Is it 24 minutes? 14 to 18 minutes. Let's go to 18 minutes is ads, okay? Let's do the math. So let's say 15 minutes. 15 minutes times 20... weil es 10.000 pro 30-Send-Commercial ist, also 20.000 pro Minute. Das sind 300.000. 300.000 pro Show. Sie macht vier Shows pro Monat. Das sind 1,2 Millionen. 1,2 Millionen mal zwölf Monate pro Jahr.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Das sind 14,5 Millionen. Sagen wir, es sind 15 Millionen Dollar. Willst du mir sagen, dass ich 15 Millionen Dollar an Sponsoren sammle? dann payen you $25 million. And that doesn't include the producer, the executive producer, the cameras, the network, the ads, all the networking. So you really think that's going on? I think something's going on in there. The math doesn't make any sense.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
What are we talking about here? Take a commercial for a 30-second slot times 15 minutes times... 52 Videos pro Jahr, das macht keinen Sinn. MSNBC, in meiner Meinung, wird von Rachel Maddow verhaftet, weil sie fürchtet, dass sie etwas an ihnen hat. Und sie haben einen Gottfrau-Kontrakt für jemanden gegeben, der gewechselt werden muss. Und MSNBC wird sterben. Das ist deine Meinung.

Go to the contract. Is it once a week? Does Rachel Maddow only...
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Now watch this here, how this continues. So 25 feet radius, 15% positive, okay? Watch the opposite. The flip side is that bad eggs impact their neighbors too. Negative spillovers from so-called toxic co-workers is even more pronounced. Sometimes having twice the magnitude of impact on profits as positive spillover. Yet while this toxic spillover happens very quickly...

Jetzt ist es für keine längere Strecke. Es ist typisch nicht einmal pro Woche, sondern eher für längere Strecke, wie ein paar Tage. Okay. So she's coming in when she feels like it. Okay, because if it's five days a week and it's two million views per, then economically it makes sense. If it's not five days a week, it's once a week, the math doesn't make any sense.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
The sponsorship money doesn't add up. She does it every day, two million, you're saying, Rob, that's how many eyeballs she gets? Yes. Well, I could say it makes sense. How old is she, by the way? Can you type up how old Rachel Maddow is?

Savannah Guthrie, 10-18. Interessant. It's all based on the amount of money they can make running Gats. If it makes sense, you do it. If it doesn't, it doesn't. Obviously with Joy Reid, the money wasn't making sense.

Lawrence O'Donnell. Er ist 80 Jahre alt. Was passiert zwischen Tucker und Dan Crenshaw? Rob, du hast einen Clip mit Dan Crenshaw gespielt. Er hat ein Interview mit einem Mann gemacht. Und dann plötzlich mit GBN. Sie sprechen und er schreit etwas über Tucker, wenn er zu ihm kommen würde. Geh mal, Rob. Hast du Tucker jemals getroffen?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
No joke. So let me ask you, who leaked this clip? This looks like a direct angle of the camera. So then this is GBN leaked this clip. While they're talking. Or at GBN. By the way, whoever that's at GBN that was behind it, if the guy didn't get fired, then it's GBN. Because if somebody leaked a clip here without my permission and if they have a job and you leak this, you don't have a job.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
So that means GBN approved a clip like this being leaked or was okay with it being leaked. Because it was publicity getting it out there. So if you ever do an interview with GBN, make sure you don't talk while the camera isn't on. Nothing. Just say all the best whatever. Because now Tucker responds back to this, Rob. If you can pull up, what is that right there you got?

It also dissipates almost immediately once that worker is either fired or relegated to the far physical reaches of the company. You can stop with the story here. What is this story about?

No, no, no. Or Trump calling out people that are part of MAGA? No, no, no. Das ist das, was er sagt. Ich dachte, es war ein Tweet von ihm, der sagt, apparently it's not up there. Okay, so if you find it, there was something where he said, I would love to have you on. I would love to have you on... I thought I saw a response. I thought I saw a response by Tucker.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Tucker said, if you want to debate, if you want to talk about it... Yeah, if you want to let's do it right here, I'll send you my address. Something like that is what he said. So, Benny, what are your thoughts on this?

Having said that, let's get right into it. Stories with what's going on. So, California. Newsom sends Congress $40 billion request for LA fire aid. Okay, so hey, Congress, we need $40 billion. Congress then comes and gets the money from who? Taxpayers. So that means you're really fixing the problem of his lack of leadership. They're coming to collect money.

I'm trying to recover from where I'm from. Aaron Judge, Yankees. We have to talk about this. Explains why he's staying Mr. Clean even after Yankees. Stunning facial hair reversal. So the Yankees historically have been known. As an organization that you have to stay clean cut. Er sagt, das ist, was ich weiß, das ist, was ich gewohnt bin.

Der Berichter, der seitdem er in 2013 gedraftet wurde, hat gesagt, ich schaue um die Gebäude, schaue auf die alten Fotos, die letzten Legenden, sie alle folgen diesen Regeln, also versuche ich einfach, auf ihrem Weg zu folgen.

Though Steinbrunner is suggesting some players have been hesitant to join the Yankees because of the policy, Judge said he had not heard too much about guys refusing to sign over. Devin Williams and Carlos Roden have already announced plans to grow beards, while Judge Anthony Volpe, Marcus Stroman, are sticking with their clean cut look.

Okay, so Rob, if you can pull up the Hal Steinbrenner tweet, he puts it out there, go a little bit lower, you'll see like a, maybe it's not that one. Benny, what do you think about this? You're a Yankee, you're a New York guy, what are your thoughts on this story here?

Ja, lass uns das machen und wir fangen an, weil Adam heute eine Pause braucht. Relax. Ich habe meine Garshokes. Ich weiß nicht, wie viele Garshokes du hast, aber du brauchst viele. Also die Yankees, Steinbrenner, er kauft die Yankees in 1973. The new appearance rules for the Yankees takes place in 76. Okay? And it's there almost 50 years, and then Hal changes it.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Now, to be fair to Hal versus George, Hal is not George. That policy only works based on the man who's setting that standard and expectation and doesn't compromise, which is who? George. George put that standard. How many World Series did the Yankees win since 1976? That's what I want to know. How many World Series have the Yankees won? How many World Series have the Yankees won since 1970?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Put 73, because they won it in 73. Did I say nine? Nine. So they've won five.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Okay, one, two, three, four, five. Yeah. I thought it would have been more as well. But they've won five. Okay. Total, they've won 27. Okay. But since 1973, they've won five. The last time they won were Yankees' 27 titles. Well, let's see that. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Is it seven?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
So why is this saying 1970 Yankees have won the World Series five times here, the four years they've won? So I'm looking at...
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Also sie haben 7 gewonnen. Aber sie haben nicht gewonnen in 15 Jahren. Seit 77. Also das sind 47 Jahre, 48 Jahre, sie haben 7 gewonnen. Aber sie haben nicht gewonnen in 16 Jahren. Ich weiß nicht. Ich denke, diese Art von Standards funktionieren. If the guy who has a strong personality with those standards is still around. That's what I think it works. And George was one of a kind. And guess what?
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Who is the head of the state? We have to trust that he's going to use the money wisely. Of course he used the 24 billion dollars to fix homelessness in California very wisely. We know where that went. And he eliminated all of it. Homelessness didn't just double or triple. etc. etc. And meanwhile, two other stories I'll add to this, I'm not going to read it. L.A.

Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
He passed the business over to his son. Hal has been running it. Hal gets to call the shots right the way he wants. And sometimes when somebody's son comes in or daughter comes in and they're leading, they get to make certain adjustments. That's just kind of how it works. Jerry Buss wouldn't have given Kobe...
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Guys, Jerry Buss war vielleicht der größte Wettbewerber aller Zeiten im Sport. Er hat 10 Wettbewerbe gewonnen und 33 Jahre Wettbewerb. Denkt daran. Als Shaq zu ihm kam, und Shaq meinte, hey, Miami Heat will mir das bezahlen. Er sagt, wirklich? Ja, er sagt, geh hin. Er sagt, ich gehe mit Kobe. Kobe ist das Zukunft. Du bist es nicht. Und Shaq ist so, wirklich? Ja, das ist mein Team.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Nein, du hast die drei Wettbewerbe gewonnen. Aber geh dein Geld. Ich denke nicht, dass das deine Saison ist. Ich denke, es ist die Saison von Kobe. Die Jerrys und die Georges, die mit viel Kritik und viel Hass zu tun haben. Es ist nicht jeder sein Job. Es ist nicht. And it's a very tough job. And I love the organization. I love the history.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
I'm all about history, traditions, rituals, all of that stuff. That stuff is very attractive to a guy like me. But it may not be attractive to everybody. It is to me, though. Quite frankly, I got in trouble for saying this while it was going on. And what I said about Juan Soto. And I got a weird phone call, which I'll keep that private.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
But to me, the moment the Yankees lost, after the way Juan played defense... Und dann nachher, wenn sie fragen, wo sie gehen wollen, ich nehme Offers von jedem, zeigte null Respekt vor der Yankees-Organisation, ich bin nicht interessiert. Sehr einfach. Du musst stolz sein, zu den Yankees zu gehen. Du musst eine Art Historiker haben.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Du musst eine Art Verständnis haben, wer für die Yankees gespielt hat. Was sie für das Spiel gemacht haben. Wenn du Maris, Mantel siehst, wenn du Geschichten von Ruth siehst,
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Wenn du die Geschichten von Jeter hörst, all diesen anderen Jungs, die gekommen sind, und ich kriege die Schmerzen über meinem Körper, wenn du die Geschichten von Yogi siehst, wenn du diese Geschichten hörst, diese Jungs haben diese Organisation gebaut, wo die Leute jetzt stolz sind, das Shirt zu tragen, okay, wo die Leute schreien und sagen, das, das, das, May, May, May, B, B, B, the greatest day of my, my, my, my life, life, life, life, life.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Wenn du das Yankees-Jerseys nimmst, dann ist da was dran. Und das muss weitergehen. Die Freude muss weitergehen. Die Leute wollen zu einer Organisation gehören, die ein bisschen schwer zu sein ist. Es ist nicht für alle. Willst du irgendwo spielen, geh irgendwo spielen. Es gibt einige Orte, wo es ein bisschen schwieriger ist. Es ist ein bisschen schwieriger. Es ist ein bisschen angenehmer.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Es ist ein bisschen edgier. Es ist ein bisschen mehr das. Ja, das sind die Yankees. Und ich respektiere es. Ich mag es. Das bedeutet nicht, Hal macht jede Entscheidung, die er macht. Er ist der Majoritätsführer, er ist der Boss. Er ruft die Schüsse an. Du musst folgen. Das ist das, was die Schüsse genannt werden. Und er hat mehr Insight zu Informationen, die gemacht werden.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Und sein Team hat es unterstützt. Und es ist, was es ist. Aber ich applaudiere auch Aaron Judge. Dieser Kerl ist ein... Du weißt, er wurde adoptiert. Hast du jemals gehört, dass er adoptiert wird und was seine Familie ihm getan hat und wie er sich darstellt? Ich weiß nicht, man. Ich denke, Aaron ist so... Ich will nur, dass dieser Kerl ein Wettbewerb gewinnt. Ich will, dass er einen gewinnt.
PBD Podcast
Joy Reid FIRED, Alec Baldwin vs Trump Impersonator, Crenshaw Threatens Tucker | PBD Podcast | Ep. 551
Er ist der Art von Kerl, den du sehen willst, win one. I like him as a face of the league. He's a great number one for an organization, great flag carrier in an era where it's very hard to find a great number one that's willing to defend the values and principles and the cultures and the rituals. Good luck finding a guy like Aaron Judge today.

Anyways, alright, so we are done with today's podcast. Rob, what is today? Today is Tuesday. Tomorrow we're getting the podcast with Bolsonaro that's going live.

So this is a good chance for Trump to use that to get things changed in the state of California? Yeah, absolutely. How far do you think he can go? Do you think he can go as far as trying to get the state to flip? And if yes, how would he cause the state to flip? What could Trump do to cause the state to flip?

Okay, so can I just unpack what I think you're saying and then tell me if that's kind of what you're saying. Nicholas, I'm going to come to you next. So are you saying hypothetically to the average person, not somebody that's Mike Benz caliber, this is your world, deputy, you're working with the State Department, you're in the world, Internet, you're around it. This is your world that you study.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
To the average person, you're saying China potentially used Biden as a favor to to make sure Bolsonaro doesn't get in the way because under Lula, they're able to buy and get more resources and things that they want there and Bolsonaro gets in the way. So, hey, U.S., we'll stay quiet and we won't do anything with you. We'll keep doing business with you, but we need a favor from you.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
We need to make sure you go out there and do whatever you can for Bolsonaro to stop talking about the voting system And rig it if you can. Make sure he doesn't win so we can put Lula in because Lula's going to play game with us, play ball with us. With China, we can get in and do whatever we want to do. Is that kind of what you're insinuating?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Right. So both of them are going to be there as well by Nicolas. It's great to have you on the podcast.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike, how are you doing? Never been better. That's good. I'm excited for that. By the way, initially, it was just supposed to be us, okay? Then I said, if we're going to have you on, we may as well also have Mike on because I want the Brazilian people, I want people around the world, Americans, Brazilian, to see this because Americans get a chance to see you.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Because this is all USAID and NED and the NGOs that are all... In Brazil, private texts to family and friends are fast becoming as targeted by counter-disinformation techniques as public-facing posts.

USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
On social media, this escalation of fact-checkers interventions and sharing limits on text has been introduced through new speech constraints on popular encrypted apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Rob, can you go a little bit higher so I can read the last sentence? These developments are being funded by millions of dollars in U.S. tax.
PBD Podcast

But at this point, because there's a lot of telegram groups that you're a part of, right? That the communities are talking to each other. Are you seeing what you can and can't do?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Brazilians get a chance to hear from Mike directly. Both audiences need to learn about each other and what's going on with Brazil, right? And we were at CPAC a couple days ago, two days ago. Eduardo Bolsonaro was there. He had a chance to speak. It was a lot of talks about Brazil. And then while we're there leaving, I kind of want a little bit of feedback from you here.
PBD Podcast

USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Now, Mike, let me ask you, as you're processing what he's saying. When I was with the president, I asked him, so, for example, what can U.S. do under Trump? Because we saw that Lula's popularity when he was done being president after the eight years he was in from 2003 to 2011, he left with a popularity of 80 percent, 81 percent. It was very high. And then he goes and does his time.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
An hour after we are done with the interview with Jair Bolsonaro, we're sitting there, hey, 38 years, coup, poisoning, Lula. You're seeing all that stuff being talked about. What can you tell us about what's going on there?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
His wife has the stroke. She passes away. He gets 12 years. Alexandre de Moraes comes in, takes him out. Bolsonaro wins in 2018. And then they bring him out to make sure he beats Bolsonaro, and boom. The rest is history. But I asked him the question. I said, so now Lula's popularity went from 80% to 24%, the lowest it's ever been in Brazil. It's not a good thing. Brazilians don't like this guy.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Coffee is expensive. Everything is expensive right now, and they're going through it. What is the opposite of what CIA did to hurt? Meaning, so now, how does Alexandre de Moraes or X, which now I think they banned Trump's network and Rumble, and now Rumble and Trump's network are suing Brazil, and while Lula's there, Alexandre's there, what can you ask?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
It doesn't look like this guy's afraid of anybody. It doesn't look like this guy, de Moraes, is afraid of anybody in the States. Do you think things can change in any way where Bolsonaro could run and win in 2026?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Policy alignment where? Amongst Bolsonaro and U.S.?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
No, let's stay on that. I'm curious.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I want to know what that means. Because for me, you're dealing with a country that out of their 11 Supreme Courts, only two are conservative. You're dealing with a country that out of their 81 Senate, only 22 are conservative. You're dealing with a country that out of 513 congressmen and women, only 130 are conservative.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
When you look at Bukele, Brandon, you were telling me earlier the fact that Bukele, the way he did it in advance.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And that's a beautiful thing because he can just go in and say, here's what we want to do, right? Mm-hmm. In this case, this is a very different situation that he has. So if U.S. can't go and say, well, what do we do with the Supreme Court? What do we do with Senate? What do we do with that? That's a longer-term play. To me, short-term between now and 2026, what can U.S. really do?

USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I got this, Mike. Go for it. So this makes sense. So these words are the words that they're both worried about.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Okay, we were going to go pre-recorded with this today. We decided to go live because we have two of the most important voices in the world today. One of them happens to be Alexandre de Moraes' best friend, Mike Benz, who is in the house today. For whatever reason, these two guys just really like each other. He always picks on him. And there's a lot that's going to be exposed today.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Nicholas, do you know who he is?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Which clip are you talking about?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike, let me ask you a question. Have you been, again, three questions I've asked you. You're very good at dodging any question I ask. I don't think you've answered a single question of mine. I think you just came with a PowerPoint to present. I ask you, since you have knowledge in this.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I know. I'm asking, since you have knowledge in this, I ask you with Dan Bongino, we would want someone like you on the inside to help something like this if you're knowledgeable in it. Are you open to the idea if they do reach out? And have you had any of the conversations? You don't have to answer the second one, but the first one. I just want to be useful.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Can you say that right now? So the fact that you're saying he's a thief and he should be in jail, you flying back to Brazil, is there any risk for you that anything could happen or no?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You just want to be useful, which means yes. Yes. That's what that means.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
That's good. So that means the fingerprints are going to be left with what's going on. Nicholas, for you, when you're hearing what he's saying, I'm assuming you see... half of the stuff you already maybe have seen or you know the judge, you're in the country, you go through it. But for the people, today Americans are listening to you, Brazilians are listening to him.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
That was my idea, for them to see the both messaging, to see what Brazilians are going to hear from Mike to be inspired, what can I do, right? And from your end, for Americans to say, I love this guy, I need to be involved, I want to share this information with other people, how can we do something about it?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Yeah, those three ladies, Rob. The three ladies right there.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Now, your story, for some people that don't know, Rob, if you can pull up the clip, you were telling me this when we were together, is this is you at 17 years old, right? This is a school where, I think it's called PUC, if I'm not mistaken.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Yeah, it has... Can you click on to see how many views this video got, Rob? Wow. Just click on the numbers of likes. It'll show you if you click on that. Let me check it here.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You know how long is that video, by the way? Four minutes. So in the video, what are you explaining to them?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
What's the date on that video, Rob? Sorry? What's the date on the video?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And this is how he went viral. By the way, just so everybody knows, Nicholas has got 17-plus million followers just on Instagram. He posts a clip on Instagram. It gets a million likes, not even a million views. This guy is the biggest sensation there.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
With Bolsonaro?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Where is Bolsonaro going to be?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
While we're there walking around, everyone's saying he will be the president in the next eight years, and the people want him to become the president in eight years. But explain to us what happens here because this is where people learn about you. You're 17 years old in this clip.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Where are you going to be?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
So it's not like different locations.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
So right now, is the confidence there that Bolsonaro, because you're 28, you cannot run until 2036, right, if I'm not mistaken?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I need to be terrified. Right now, one of two things was the conversation. One, lower the age to run, which that's not the topic right now. They may want you to run for Senate because that's one way to help, right? That's kind of one of the things we're talking about.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
So if they're not going to lower the age, and they have them right now not being able to run for 2026, and if they have control of all the three different branches, like you got Supreme and House and Senate, what can you do for them to allow Bolsonaro to run? Because if he does run, what's going to happen? His wife's going to be the face?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Kind of like what's going on with Venezuela, where Maria Corina Machado ran with, I think, what's the guy's name? Edmundo Gonzalez? I think that's his name. Yeah, I think that's right. Would that be kind of how they would do it? What do you think can happen?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
thing to do but it's all we can do so but we can't do much to me i i um okay so if this thing's at from 80 to 34 to 24 you got 329 million views i don't know if i've seen a video with 329 million views and you're from brazil u.s is a bigger country i i honestly i don't know if you've seen i've seen a video with 329 million views 8.8 million likes and i'm talking
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
The only thing I guess I saw is when Messi's post got 77 million views on Instagram when he won the World Cup. I mean, that's Messi winning the World Cup is what I've seen, right? So the only thing it makes me think about, if they're not going to get out the way... And look, I can say this, you know, Mike for sure can't say this, but I can say this. Okay, Mike, earmuffs.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Could it be, because it's either heavy involved with the president, U.S., which I don't think they want to do. When I had the president here and I asked him the question about Iran and, you know, the fact that the last time the sanctions hurt Iran so much that Iran almost fell.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And it was pretty bad. I said, what's your... you know, what are you planning on doing with Iran? He says, we have so many problems in America right now that I got to think about me. I can't do anything else. So then if it goes on you guys and you said, I don't want any help, leave us alone. Don't help the left, don't help the right. That's kind of what you said about five, 10 minutes ago, right?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Okay. What are you going to do if they're not moving? What is the only option you got left? I mean, revolution is the only option. That's not something anybody wants to talk about.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Rob, can you go back to that slide you had about the price of coffee? So if you look at this with price of coffee, that's as of December of 2024. Average monthly price of coffee in Brazil from January 2021 to December of 2024. Look where it was just in 2021 to where it's at today. And you're saying the people are feeling this.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike, maybe you can't say what U.S. can do. And I'm going to leave that one alone for now. But what can the Brazilian people do? OK, your clips are being played in Brazil all over the place, translated Portuguese. They're seeing they know who you are. They're recognizing who you are.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
When we were there, your name came up a lot of times as I'm having conversations with different Congress, Senate people that are talking. What what feedback do you have to the people who are sitting there saying, OK, without America's help, what can we do? What would you say to them?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike, let me ask you, with Kassab, what do you think about Gilberto Kassab? You know, he seems like he's a pretty powerful guy right now with the leader, what is it, the center?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Do you have a relationship with him or no?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Is he a guy that has enough power and influence to help you or help Bolsonaro run in 2026, or he's not a guy that's going to help Bolsonaro?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Like a favor.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Let me ask you, with Amazon fire, is that a big issue?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
If you can pull up the chart, Rob, I texted you earlier to make the comparison. So here's what we got. It shows, if you go to that link, go a little bit lower, it shows you how many fires they've had. Look at that. Zoom in a little bit. 44 million acres of fire. has been burned, acres has been burned in Brazil just last year.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Okay, 2019 was 19 million, then 19 million, then 13 million, then again 19 million, then 27 million under Lula, and then 44 million. Just to kind of put in perspective how much 44 million acres is, Rob, if you can go to the other link that shows states in America so people can kind of know, 44 million acres is more than the state of Alabama More than Arkansas. More than the state of Florida.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Florida is only 30. Go a little bit higher, Rob, so we can show the top right. Go to the third one. State land area. Yeah, right there. Go to the other way. Look at that. Go down. Only 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15. 15 states. are bigger than 44 acres. 35 states in America are smaller than 44 million acres. That's fire. And so what is Lula's administration saying about this?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike said he's got material he's going to be sharing he's never shared before. And if you know Mike, we've had him on. We were on together, what, three, four, five months ago. and him talking about USAID, all these other conversations that's been had. And when I was with the president of Brazil, we showed a clip of his. The president reacted to it.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Is this normal to you guys? How are people reacting about this?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
It seems like under Lula, when the fires happen, it's climate change. But when the fires happen under Bolsonaro, it's his fault.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
So next question, Rob, if you can pull up Lula's wife had a message for Musk. And Mike, I'm coming to you after this one here. So this is Lula's wife, wonderful lady. She is giving a message to Musk here. Go ahead and play this clip, Rob.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Is that like the compare? Is this a liberal school? Is this a far left school or no?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
What role do you think X is playing in Brazilians gaining their freedom, Mike? What role do you think X is playing?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
No, my point to you was, when I was bringing you and Nicholas here, I wanted to make sure that the people... in Brazil, if they wanted to know how they can have freedom, that's what I was saying. Not accusing of a slideshow. If you got the slideshow, that's good.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
No, I understand. Play the clip. What's this one here, Mike?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Rob, can you play that clip? I mean, we're not going to understand what he's saying. I just want the audience to see when he walks up.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Does it allow you or no? It doesn't look like it allows me. Okay, go for it, Mike.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Can you play that?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You're saying this to his face.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You can pause it right here, Ross. So you play this clip. This goes out. Is this the first time Brazil learned about you? Like prior to this, they don't know who you are.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And at this point, do you have any aspirations of getting into politics or not yet?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Got it. So, I mean, obviously, from there to now, with what's going on with Brazil, Mike, for you... When you started talking about, I think it was the clip that we played in the interview with Steve Bannon, where you're explaining the fact that, you know, what really has taken place in Brazil, the powers behind it.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Thank you. My question for you. So this is the part where when I was Brazil, it made me think about Iran, U.S. They've had seven constitutional last hundred years. These guys have had it, right? We have the oldest constitution in the world. 193 out of 195 countries in the world have a constitution. Ours is the oldest, right?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You remember when it was when they were saying removing him off the ballot in Colorado. How different would it have been and how different are we from Brazil if we didn't have the Supreme Court 6-3? What if it was 6-3 the other way around?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
If it was 6-3 the other way around, and say we didn't have Senate and we didn't have, so let's just kind of go exactly the situation they're in in Brazil right now, because they have all three on the other side, right? And that's why Kassab, Gilberto was such a powerful man because everybody needs to give him favors.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And that's what he means by whatever their big favors, I don't know how big of a favor he's going to ask Bolsonaro. But what if we were 6-3? Do we have that fickle of a system that if the left had extremists of Supreme Court justices they could have removed them off the ballot? Could that have been a possibility?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And I think even when you were with Joe, on Joe's, you explained the fact that they went to tell him, Bolsonaro, I'll let you tell the story. What is the exchange with how the U.S. was involved with the elections in Brazil? No.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike, why don't you just put the phone up on the desk? It looks like you're looking at something else. Every time you look at it, it's very inappropriate. I don't know if you see visually. It's not a good look, Mike.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Who runs it? Who runs Internews?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
There's a lot of people in Brazil right now are watching to see what he has to say. Some of the stories having to do with CIA possibly being involved with the coup and even pulling Bolsonaro aside saying, hey, you better kind of play along with us, Lloyd Austin and others, or else, but I'll let him explain it to you. He knows it better than I do. And the other one is,
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
But again, what I would say is this is why they lost. This is why Trump won. What I'm trying to ask you, and I want to stay on this one topic. Well, they won because Elon allowed us to talk about this. They don't have that. And that's where I'm going. So where I'm going is for you. Okay, we live in the States, right?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
My concern was if we didn't have Supreme Court, they could have removed Trump off the ballot. If they would have done that in Colorado and a couple other states would have gone, then it would have been mayhem. Because Supreme Court, from your point of view, how different is Brazil than U.S. when it comes down to this?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You may say, well, no, what you guys have in America is X, Y, Z. We don't have this in Brazil. What is that?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Go for it, Rob, if you can go through that right there.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Just press view slideshow. There you go. Mm-hmm.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
The entire country or some places it was open?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
He was the only president that didn't take the vaccination in the world. That's pretty wild.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
To think about being the only president. How's your relationship with him? How are you guys together?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
What's the part about now, okay? with messaging, you going around talking, everybody else going around talking, Eduardo being here talking. The part where I was trying to figure out with everybody that's there, with Alexandre de Moraes, right? He just got off of X. We saw that. That was a few days ago. Whether he got off of X or he was kicked out of X, I think it's the reality that he got off.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Who does he fear? Like what does Alexandre de Moraes, who does he go to sleep worried about? Who does he fear?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Mike, who do you think he fears? Because when he and X went back and forth, it didn't seem like he backed down. I mean, I think at one point, if I'm not mistaken, Elon had to fire everybody from X, and then he had to rehire some people back from X in Brazil to make sure they were in a safe place. So who does Alejandro fear?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
You're being serious.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I agree with you. That's why I'm asking the question. Who gets in his way?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
So that's all that we want. If there was a free election, you're saying Bolsonaro would be president?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Final thoughts before we wrap up, Nicolas. Final thoughts before we wrap up the podcast. Your optimism, your future, what you're thinking, what's going to happen next between now and election time Brazil? Where's your mind? What are you thinking?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Are you talking about the Sam? What is it?
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
Brother Sam.

USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550

PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I think if I'm on that part, I would hire a guy like you to bring you in. You have a little bit too much knowledge that can't be wasted. And not only do you have that knowledge, the part that makes you even special, that's tough to do. I talked to a guy today who's training my son for soccer. 11 years old, he's been playing soccer and he's obsessed with soccer. He came up here to train my son.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
He lives an hour and a half away. This is a very well-known trainer. And I called him. I said, so tell me, what is your impression of my son when he gets trained? He says, I got to tell you, the first thing I do is I have to make sure a person's kid is not playing soccer because the parents want him to play soccer. Right. He says, your son isn't playing soccer because of you.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
He's playing soccer because he loves the game. I said, trust me, if it was up to me, he'd play baseball because I like baseball more than I like soccer. I said, I want him to play baseball because we own a team. I'd like him to one day play for a team that I own so he can have fun. But this guy loves the game. I said, I can't stop him talking about soccer with what he's doing.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
And he's a big Neymar guy. He's a big Ronaldo guy. We live next to Messi, so he's had a chance to meet Messi, and he's met a lot of different people. But the reason why you need to be in is because you give me the vibes that you can't stop thinking about this stuff. This is you. You can't help yourself. You're obsessed with this. God is using you with this. I just hope the U.S.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
government uses you as well for this next phase. And if not anything... You said something very powerful. I just want to be useful, and I respect that. This is the second time we've spent time together. You seem very sincere. I'm glad you're on our side and keep digging and finding things that you find because half the stuff you showed me, I've not seen it before. So I'm following it.
PBD Podcast
USAID Corruption & Brazil's Elections w/ Nikolas Ferreira & Mike Benz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 550
I'm getting smarter every time I hear you speak. I appreciate your last minute getting on a flight and coming out here.

Under Obama, oil companies were killing it. They were phenomenal. They're doing so great. Why? Gas prices was higher. Trump comes in, oil revenue drops. You think they like Trump?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You think they're sitting there saying, oh, we're going to make more money than ever before. No, they actually made a ton of money under Obama and Biden. So look at this. Next time somebody brags to you about how much money they're making, look at under Biden, how much money oil companies made. Look at 21. Look at 22. Look at 23. You see those revenues? Guess what?

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Well, that's that's to me, the biggest thing that you're talking about is the fact that we got back to common sense. Yeah, that's very important.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Right. And and what's what's now if you ask somebody that lives in California or Texas or Arizona, they're going to tell you it's the border. OK, if you talk to somebody who goes to parties and skips the guys to go hang out with girls, they're going to say men and women, gender, right?
PBD Podcast

if you talk to somebody who is on tick tock they're going to say it's tick tock if you talk to somebody that is in jail because of j6 and their families are not with them you know because someone's in jail that's going to be j6 if you talk to somebody who dealt with the manipulation of world health organization and forcing people to do things because they the globalists thought oh my god here's what we're going to be doing
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Then you're going to say World Health Organization. But if you talk to somebody that lost a job to another person for diversity and equity, and like, wait a minute, I'm better at the job than you. What are you doing? Then it's going to be the... I mean, it really comes down to how any of these policies directly impact somebody. But the biggest factor for me was the fact it was common sense.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Musk's hand gesture. That went viral and everyone's talking about that. Lauren Sanchez chose to wear a shirt that got a lot of attention. Then the Paris agreement.

Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Both of them Google and YouTube and one of the things I think you were there when I said to him I said Look, you know Spotify did XYZ It'd be great for you guys to do more of these things because I think YouTube has a good platform But people don't yet trust to see what's gonna happen It's great that you're doing something like this, but we don't know what's gonna happen while they're very wise interview speaker Johnson Okay, and folks There is this last week.

We did a video on psyops and how much more information we consume today than ever before and the problem with the amount of information that we consume today is what what happens when you know you make a lot of money and you're always going to nice restaurants and always eating good food. You become a little bit deaf to good food. You're like, you're used to it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
If you have that clip, yeah, this one right here. So Barry is doing a great job. And by the way, she always gets information from people. I love what she does. But Speaker Johnson is telling the story about how he couldn't get to talk to Biden. And the reason why I'm getting to this, and Tom, I want to come to you first with this one here, is there's a story in our addendum.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
which, by the way, very soon, those of you guys that want to know the notes we look at, you're going to have a way of getting it on Manect, and stay tuned. We'll announce it a year or two soon. There's a story that comes out that says, Biden's final humiliation. Most Americans can't name a single success. What do you mean you can't name a single success?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
They can't name a single success, what he did. And Tom will go a little bit deeper into that. But he's saying, I'm trying to get a meeting with the president, and I can't. Speaker Johnson, he is like, if something happens to him and to Kamala, he's the president. So I can't get a meeting with Biden. What do you mean? Everybody's just saying no, no, no, no, no.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And then he's telling the story about a moment where he is there with him. kamala hakim jeffries i'll let him tell you the story this is very very important for people to realize this because due to the amount of information that we're getting it's like ah boom and we move on some of the information is so important
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
that we have to highlight and spend some time talking about it, but we can't because it just moved on. It was so quick. Play this clip. I would ask you to listen to everything he says, and then I'll tell you why this is important, and I'm going to show you a chart. Rob, go ahead and play this clip with Speaker Johnson with Barry Weiss.

Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
and he was talking about how friendly he was being until afterwards when he gets to the capital one building capital one arena and he's giving the message and he says did you guys know while i'm up there we're being sworn in biden pardons his entire family yes and melania told me to give a friendly message and don't say anything about the bidens yeah but now that i found that trust me we're going to talk about that right so yeah it seemed like he was upset i got some thoughts on that
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
That's number one because the fact folks that the last four years We didn't end up getting into a war a World War three didn't happen shit didn't hit the fan and Whatever you do today, take a moment and pray to God and say thank you. The fact that didn't happen. Because he was a prop, Hakeem Jeffries, Schumer, Kamala, maybe a method through Obama.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
All of these guys were using him as a prop based on him saying, I don't know. What do you mean you don't know? By the way, I'm a CEO. How many C-suite executives do I have, multi-six-figure guys that report to me in all the companies combined? C-suite executives. Let's just say five of them. Okay, so if I got five of them, and how many do you have that are reporting to you? Another five?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Okay, so how many of them, if they needed to get a hold of me, they would get a hold of me? What do they need to do to get a hold of me if they need to have a 15-minute meeting? I ensure that they have access transparency for emergency orders. If they needed to do it, what would they do? They would text you immediately. Okay, so let's go to a bigger organization.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Go to an organization like Apple, Tim Cook. Go to a bigger organization like Amazon, Andy Jassy, or Jeff Bezos. Go to Facebook, Zuck. Go to Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter. Do you think if the number two to Elon, to Tim Cook, to any of these guys, if they want to have a meeting with him today... What do you think they need to do to get on a call? Eight or nine weeks? That could be the prevention of a war.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
What are you talking about? The fact that Speaker Johnson couldn't get a... And the reason why this is important, Rob, I just sent a chart to you. It's very important for us to understand this and analyze this, folks, moving forward, because this is the problem we're facing. Here's a study that was done by this article, guys. I think everybody needs to look at this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
It's explaining the definition, defining the future of human information consumption. Okay? And this is the problem that we have. Go a little bit lower, Rob, if you could keep going to the first big chart. Keep going. Okay, look at that one right there, folks. Do you see that chart? Here's what that chart says. It says percentage of waking hours consuming information.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Let me say this to you one more time. Look at that chart. This is scary. Vinny, that's the percentage of your waking hours consuming information. In 1900s, it was only 10% of your time.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Go to 80s. It's 40%. Today, 80% of your waking hours, you're consuming information. If you go a little bit above that, Rob, it says the average global consumer spends 82 hours a week consuming information. Jeez. People say, ìWell, nobody works 80 hours a week.î Your brain is working 80 hours a week just consuming information right now.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And then what else we got? Bunch of clips from Trump. Snoop, a clip from back in the days, what he said about performing at the event and then him performing today. AOC, she refused to attend, says she doesn't celebrate rapists. Who says such a thing? But anyways, we'll talk. Maybe she's got a lawsuit coming up. And then aside from that, a bunch of different things with TikTok.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Assuming the average of seven hours of sleep per night, this means 69% of your waking hours is engaged on consuming information. Hereís a question. Somebody sends me something the other day, two days ago. The guy says, ìHey, Pat.

Speaker Johnson saying this to Barry Weiss, and he's just going, I forgot about what happened. That was just five days ago, four days ago. And maybe the biggest story that was dropped before Trump becoming president, the fact that Biden was never president. This was all an act. And it was controlled.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And the Speaker of the House, the number two guy beyond the President, is saying something like this? Tom, for you, when you hear something like this, and specifically the story when people are saying, what is the biggest accomplishment? How do you process all of this?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You know, China, something just happened with China, which is very interesting. Trump vowing to release the JFK, RFK, MLK assassination files and suspending security clearances for the 51 former CIA contractors who falsely implied Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian fake data.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
No, the question is, when you're seeing what's going on, Speaker Johnson and information kind of goes like this. We're being hit up by so much information. How do you differentiate between BS and something actually matters? America was being ran by somebody that wasn't actually leading the country. His people were.

And he talks about it afterwards.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
What does he do? He had already known that Biden pardoned Fauci, Milley, and the January 6th panel. which means they can't get in trouble for fabricating any other thing because it's done. So all the lies, all the documents, the 10,000 documents that they're saying was shredded, that Trump claimed it was shredded, no one's going to be able to see because they're pardoned, right?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Now, imagine that happens to the day of you're about to give inauguration. You're ready to go after Fauci to find out what happened or Milley or go after all these guys, right? Can't. It's done. Pardon's there. And you are still biting your tongue because you're about to see this guy

In the final hours, he pardons relatives, family members, brothers. He didn't do that with the Fauci and others. He did it while Trump was getting up there.

When they announced a couple days ago that they're going to do the inauguration inside, in the rotunda, I think everybody initially, your reaction is what? What's going on?

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Valerie Biden Owens, wife's sister, and her husband, John Owens, not the John Owens, we know this is a different John Owens, and James' wife, Sarah, as well as figures like General Milley, Fauci, and members of the bipartisan family, Biden stated these are exceptional circumstances, baseless and politically motivated investigations wreak havoc, okay?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Many recipients viewed the pardons as necessary due to threats from Trump, who promised retribution and labeled the January 6th Committee political thugs like Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger and other committee members issued a statement saying, we have been pardoned today, not for breaking the law, but for upholding it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Police officer Michael Fanone, involved in the Capitol riot defense, called the pardons insane, but understood their necessity, given Trump's promise of vengeance. When you hear these things, Adam, how do you process it that the pardons happen while the president's up there, specifically the family?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah, I mean, look, Tom, here's a question for you. This is your opinion again. Yeah, all my opinion. Tom, let me ask you, aside from Nixon, Ford, who else in the history of presidents has been pardoned for not committing a crime? Matter of fact, Rob, if you can go online and type in, because this is what I did, and I texted all of you guys, what's the definition of a pardon?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And just go to the top, and let's read it together to the audience. Gang, if you don't mind, do it on your own phone if you can't see it, okay? Definition of a pardon. If you go up there, I think I put something else. The action of forgiving or being forgiven for any errors or offense. He obtained pardon for his sins. Okay. So if you type in, who do presidents pardon?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Just type in, who do presidents pardon? Perfect, that's the explanation. Zoom in a little bit. Pardons extend to all federal criminal offenses. except in cases of impeachment and entail various forms of clemency, including commuting or postponing a sentence, remitting a fine or restitution, delaying the imposition of punishment, and proving amnesty of an entire group or class of individuals.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
So what's the key word? Federal criminal offenses. Okay. So what is Fauci a criminal? Is Mallorca, is Amelia criminal? Are Biden's siblings all criminals? What president in the history has ever pardoned their siblings, Rob? Can you Google what president in the history of presidents has pardoned their siblings? Which president pardoned their family? Which president?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
If you type in, I'm actually curious, and I don't know the answer to this question. So maybe a lot of them. But if you want to find out which president, Vinny, you want to go ask on ChatGBT and ask which presidents pardoned their relatives.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537

Yeah. Biden uses a technology called, these are people that have committed crimes that they're about to get arrested in the future, but I'm pardoning them before they get arrested.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And a lot of people were advising me saying, you should pardon yourself. You should pardon yourself. I said, why would I pardon myself? If I pardon myself, that means I'm guilty. I'm not guilty of anything. That's why I never pardoned myself. Why would anybody pardon themselves in advance? Because they are guilty. I wasn't guilty. He says, I think we won the 2020 election. I think we did this.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
So here's what I think is going to happen. Number one, when you're saying, is this the right enemy to choose? Yes.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
yes because let me tell you where trump is at right now you know where trump's at he's at the point of no return yes what does that mean they've already tried to kill him multiple times so so he's already crossed that path and i don't know if you know what i'm saying when i'm saying he's crossed that path of course he's in his mind again this is my opinion my opinion
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
When you flirt with death, everybody handles the close call with death in a different way. And again, this is broken down, I think, in the book David and Goliath. Some people get so scared where they play defense their entire lives. Some people are shock mode. They're like, oh my God, what just happened? But they move on with their lives.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
But a few people believe the reason why you made it is because God's got a bigger plan for you. Like it's a calling. I'm called to do something great. Trump is in that mode. So what does that mean? He's willing to go after everybody because he thinks God's got his back. Did you hear in his inauguration when he said, here's how it works. God, let me say it again, God above all.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And he said it the second time. And he says, a guy told him, he says, well, you know, Mr. President, you know, the most beautiful words
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
in a dictionary are god religion and love he says yeah god yes number one and religion is probably number two and you know what we have to love each other i get number three but the fourth best word in the dictionary is terror right he's saying what he said about terrorists right but i'll tell you this him going here you know what it's going to do to trust in the u.s government skyrocket
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Good to see you. Vinny, how cold is it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
dropping what the U.S. government did in the past before to hide it from us is going to take this chart, and if you look at this chart closely, folks, it's going to skyrocket the trust in the U.S. government. Exposing the CIA is actually going to increase the trust in the U.S. government. How weird is that? I'm exposing the government and you trust the government more now? Yes!
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Because when we say government, what do you think about? I'm having this conversation with my kids. When they say government, what do you think about? Actually, when the government is fraud, what do you think about? What does your mind go to when they say the government? The government lies. The government lies.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Tom, what do you think about when people say, I don't trust the government? Who is the government? When people say, I don't trust the government, is it what government?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You don't get the answer, and then people don't trust that. So when people say, I don't trust the government, we have to isolate and qualify what that means. When you say, I don't trust the government... The government replaced it with, I don't trust the government when it was being ran under XYZ leadership. That's what that means. So a person saying, I don't trust the government in 1964.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Okay, I get it. Or 1962, 63. I get it. I don't trust the government under this. The government replaces with the leadership team of the president that was running it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
If the president actually follows through and drops what happened with MLK, Robert F. Kennedy, and John F. Kennedy's assassination with the CIA, you're going to see that chart skyrocket when they run the poll of how much the American people trust the government. They're going to say, I trust the government.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
But replace the government, I trust Trump's administration, not the US government as a blanket immunity statement, I trust the government, period, under this administration. I think Trump has a shot on getting this thing to be a hockey stick to the roof, saying, holy shit, whether you like him or not, guess what? He's telling us what's going on, which is quite exciting.

Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
President-elect Donald Trump plans to be president now, but President Donald Trump revoked the security clearance of the 51 intelligence officials who claim Hunter Biden's laptop had the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation before the 2020 election. A senior administration told Fox News that this action was part of 200 executive orders. Spies who lie. Spies who lie.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
This is another... reason why the people didn't trust the U.S. government. Let me get to the next story here, and that's Vivek and Doge. So there are different stories. First, rumors started circulating that Vivek will be stepping down from DOGE, Department of Governmental Efficiency, if I'm not mistaken. And they're like, yeah, no, I don't think that's happening.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
It is freezing. So doing this for four hours outside waiting. They probably made the right move. Look at this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Well, then it's like, well, he's stepping down because he's running for governor. Oh, OK. So he's stepping down because he's a governor. He's running for governor. Then when you hear Vivek talk about it, And Vivek talked about it on Fox. Story says where Vivek even quotes it, I think there's a tweet where he says, it was my honor to help support the creation of Doge.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I'm confident that Elon and team will succeed in streamlining government. I'll have more to say very soon about my future plans in Ohio. Most importantly, we're all in to help President Trump make America great again. So that is a quote from him, I think a day ago or a couple days ago, right? And then while I'm on Will Kane's show,
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
He asked me a question about, you know, Trump wants Vivek to consider running for Senate. I think somebody wanted him to consider running for Senate. I said, I don't think he's a Senate guy. I think he's more an executive guy. He needs to be governor over being Senate. And now conversations are coming up about him running for governor. Tom, your thoughts.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Do you think this is because of him running for governor that this is stepping down? Do you think there's conflicts between him and Musk? Do you think it just didn't work out? Because Trump also two days ago said that Vivek is still going to be a doge. But there's a there's a few different stories here coming out from different people, Tom.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Now, let me tell you, I did a video when we first came to the event, and I'm doing a video now that we're leaving. To tell you how cold it is, still, it feels, Tom, does it feel like 5 degrees, 10 degrees right now?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah, no, the conversations when you hear what's going on on Twitter and some people behind closed doors is, you know, the fact that after his comments on H-1B visa,
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
uh you know that got i think it was 150 it's his most viewed tweet of all time yeah 150 million views of people that saw his tweet right the wrong way to say it what he did what he said it really pissed a lot of people off and that was kind of the moment of what do we do with them do we kind of step away that's what some people are saying now he's going to clarify and probably say it had nothing to do with that but it is what it is
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You can pause it right there, Rob. It was so cold, I couldn't take my ring off. My hands were swollen. I don't have a ring on right now because my hands are swollen. I can't put it in there. It was incredibly cold. And I think yesterday with the drivers taking us back to the hotel, I asked the driver a question.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I do think it's beneath him. Not beneath him.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I said, hey, just out of curiosity, do you think it was the right African-American guy, family, four kids, local D.C. guy? He's been here for a long time. I said, do you think it was the right move to not have the inauguration outside? He says, 100%. People would have gotten hurt. That's how cold it was, Tom.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah. So I think, you know, while I was at the Starlight, I spoke to a lot of different people who were approaching me and some of the guys that are heavyweight names that you all know who they are. Some are in the policy space. Some are on TV. You see them. And what do you want? Let me tell you if you make this. And let me tell you if you make that. And let me tell you if you make this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I'm like, listen, relax, OK? whether you want to call this a fumble or stumble or whatever, what are these words that people say, Tom, like when you're on your way, you're stumbling on something. You're fumbling, stumbling, you make a gap. Whatever, I mean, you say, the standards for me on winning at the highest level is not perfection, okay?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You're going to get through moments where you're going to stumble. I talk to the kids about this. You're going to have your moments. By the way, the freaking guy... from Baltimore Ravens. They come back, they scored a touchdown. Throws the ball perfectly to the tight end in a corner. It couldn't be easier. Andrews. Andrews to catch the ball. We can't play this clip because of ESPN.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Doesn't, drops the ball to go to, I mean, do you realize how he feels the quarterback and he knows too many, and he took full responsibility. They're gonna have a tough off-season. Everywhere they go, hey, hey, how you doing, man? Stop asking me how I'm doing. Hey, man, I'm so sorry. Shut up, right? I don't wanna hear it. It's part of life when you're on the, what do you call it, the big screen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Dude, relax, relax. There's two ways. Sometimes both ideas can be both right and wrong. Sometimes intelligence is being able to entertain opposing ideas and kind of get it. There's a part that's like it's getting late. Let's go. You're going to turn 60 years old in 16 years. Okay? And that's true. But you know what the other side is? We got a long life to live. Yep. Life is long and life is short.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
They're both right. Vivek is a star led into a superstar that pissed a lot of people off. And while you're coming up, you also have to sometimes realize the people that are in your ear telling you, you're amazing, you're amazing, you're amazing, you're amazing, you're amazing. You have to mute those people. It's not easy to do.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
But I think he's going to recreate himself as these types of personalities always do. And he's going to come back and you're going to see him. Right now, if I'm a mind reader, and I'm not, and if I sat there, in his mind, he's counting 12 years. You know what 12 years is? Do you know what 12 years is? It's the next time Vivek's going to have a shot at being a president.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
That's what I mean. So he's calculating 52 years old. Yep. And that is very annoying to somebody that's extremely ambitious. Of course. Very annoying. So that's what he's going through right now. And again, my opinion, I haven't spoken to him. in a while, but that's my opinion on this. Now, Zuckerberg had a phenomenal moment. He had a very special moment. It's great to say that your vision works.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You know, some people are worried because they go to the doctor, they can't see anymore.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah. What the world realizes is that Zuck has great eyes, okay? And it still works. He doesn't need glasses, even though Facebook just came out with new glasses. Without the Facebook glasses, he was able to spot something. That, you know, whether it's because of different reasons, you said something which I don't want to take it away from you. I don't want to steal your thunder.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You'll say it here in a minute. It could be a commercial for that. But here's what everybody's talking about in the inauguration and the rotunda. Go ahead, Vinny, Rob. Play this wonderful clip of knowing that Zuck's eyes work. Play it again. Look at this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
All right. Now, can you play the clip of when she turned around, the pro Kennedy and others, how they were looking up? It reminded me of a scene from a movie, which I'll tell you guys. I don't know if you have the clip. I texted you, Rob. It's a clip about Kennedy and them are sitting there watching. Before it happens, I'm going to give you a thumbs up to go to that one.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And so she's turning around. And this tweet is so funny. It says, RFK did a lot better job than Zuck when looking at Jeff Bezos' girlfriend, Lauren Sanchez, who wore a bra openly to the inauguration. If you have this, this is called wisdom. This is called life experience. Zuckerberg needs to call Kennedy and have a conversation with him. Rob, if you can play this clip for the audience.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And folks, watch this. This is called experience and being a professional. Go ahead.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
She turns around. Watch this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
JFK, do not look down at that. Look, look, look. Just turn off the audio and play. Look. He's not looking. He's not looking. Look, look, look. Don't look. Look at the guy to the right of Kennedy. He's just like, honey, I didn't look. Babe, I wasn't looking. Am I free?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
boom okay all right we're safe but zuck fell for it and got billions on top of billions of views and uh anyways even my wife saw this my wife's like come on guys you gotta leave him alone he didn't do anything wrong a guy would have been looking at this but anyways girls look at this from a different perspective than we do Vinny, your thoughts on this?

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Tom, let's go to you. Go ahead. What's your analysis here?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
No, I think it's intentional. And I think Bezos loved it. And I think Bezos want the world to say, that's my girl. Okay. And everybody's looking at my girl because he's at a different phase of his life. He's worth $200 billion. Yeah. And he's playing a very, very different game. And he looks great himself. The other day while he's sitting there watching his Rockets.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Not watching his Rockets, folks. This is not an analogy or metaphor. He's literally standing there like this in jeans.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Different story. All right, so let's go over here to see what other stories we want to get to here before we wrap up. You know, one of the stories I do want to say that, well... We'll get to that here in a minute. But one of the stories I do want to talk about is Djokovic, which I love what he did. But let's talk about the ball who performed. Nelly performed at the one you guys were at.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Yeah, the Liberty Ball. And the Liberty Ball. And by the way, we love Nelly. We had Nelly on a year and a half ago, and I'll never forget what Nelly said. We opened up our annual convention at the MGM with Nelly. 9 a.m. Nelly gets a call. He says, hey, man, these guys want you to perform at 9 o'clock. I said, shit, that's early. I never perform at 9 o'clock. You sure it's 9 o'clock? He says, yes.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
He says, they just want me to perform at 9 p.m. I'm normally 11 o'clock. He says, no, no, no, 9 a.m. He gets up, he says, never in my life have I given a concert to 10,000 people at 9 a.m. with people on fire. He couldn't believe it. Anyways, he explains himself because a lot of people went out there talking shit. Rob, I don't know if you have that clip or not.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And then Snoop, also there's a clip that resurfaced from him in 2017. making fun of the language with the accent of, hey, if you say this, if you say that. But they perform. I think DJ Khaled was there. Snoop was there, gave a great performance. Nelly was there lighting it up last night. But here's Snoop from 2017 to now for those that are performing at Trump's event. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
I wonder who that is. Wait, is that the same guy? That's hilarious. So, Rob, then go to Nelly, who's getting criticism about him performing. That's called a hypocrite.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
And by the way, Nelly, sometimes you forget how many great hits he's got. Seriously. Sometimes you forget. But here's Nelly when people criticize him for performing. And look what he says about the $1.5 billion. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
You can pause it, Rob. I love the way he's explaining himself and saying, hey, I'm not judging you. You do what you want to do, but this is the reason why I'm doing this. So, you know, you were stuck around late enough for him to perform. How was it when he performed? How was his energy when he was on the stage? What was it like?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Listen, you better watch who you're talking about. Run on your mouth like you know me, okay? I'm telling you right now. But go ahead, you were saying.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Gangster. No, he's. Barron is a stud. And you know what I liked about what Don did? Let me tell you what I liked about what Don did. That's what you know. Barron's got a good older brother. Don, so then the camera starts having a little bit of fun with the kids.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
Then they go on Don, they're, ah, and then they go to, and so it's like, well, you know, let's see, and then Eric gets up, so they're having fun now, right? But then when they go on Don, and Don is like, He's listening for the applause. Yeah, he's listening to the applause, and he gave the smile, the smile of, he's so happy for his younger brother.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
He says, until I win and I have something to talk about, I probably won't be doing anything. Now, they're probably going to try to force him to do something. I don't know what's going to happen with that interview, what happens the next year, two years, three years, four years, he graduates. from school, but a lot of good signs of what he's going to do. He's also going to stumble. Of course.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Inauguration, Executive Orders Biden Pardons LIVE FROM WASHINGTON DC | PBD Podcast | Ep. 537
The other guy's like, no, man, I'm not interested. But eventually, they were showing clips of Barron in the first administration where he was a little bit awkward. And whoever worked on Barron to clean up his, you know, and whoever worked on Bezos to clean him up, I mean, maybe Musk has got to hire somebody like that. Just kind of see, hey, a few basic things for that.

And I had a very interesting meeting with somebody, and I said, so what do you think is Elon's vision long term? And that led to a very interesting conversation. Long term, we're going to realize everyone's visions, motives, desires. Sometimes it takes 5, 10, 15, 20 years.

They're so worried about it. So security was tight. Part of it I like. The other part that I don't like is the fact that it was on the outside.

Did you ever think you would make it? I feel I'm supposed to take sweet victory. I know this life meant for me. Adam, what's your point?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever signed, right here.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
He says something about his boys, the way he raises his sons. And Hollywood has lost their mind. And if you don't know who Anthony Mackie is, he's the guy from, is he the Black Panther? Rob, is he one of the Black Panthers? Yeah, I believe he's Captain America now.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Okay, so that's that part. This next one here, watch this one.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And you got to see the way he answered that. By the way, more stuff going on with Venezuela. We'll talk about that. Don Lemon says, if you're black and MAGA, you're not very intelligent. Some word like that he used. I'll let him explain it to you because, you know, he's very good at explaining these types of things.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
What do you mean by focusing on this? Well, we had a hundred stories we can talk about today. We're starting with this. Why do you think, why do you think the Barry Weiss clip in D.C. during January 20th when she sat down with Speaker Johnson. Why do you think that clip was all over the place?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Why do you think tens of millions of Americans were interested in what happened and what Speaker Johnson said to Barry Weiss? Why do you think? Why do you think when Speaker Johnson told the story when he said he asked, President Biden asked Kamala, Hakeem Jeffries, and Schumer to step outside, And he says, Mr. President, you signed this. He says, I never signed this. I never agreed to this.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
He says, no, no, you signed this. Why do you think tens of millions of people were interested in that clip? Good point.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I get it. Yeah. Listen, I understand you like being dramatic. OK, but hear me out here. Hear me out here. I'm very chill. No, no, I don't mind. Listen, I've been with you for you've been here for a while. So but this is the question. That ought to give – and by the way, as a president or a leader of a company, this is what you do. Your job – and this is what Trump does very well.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Here's what Trump does. Hey, guess what, guys? What? You know – And he uses key words, may, if, what if, let's look into it. And then he throws it out there to the people, okay? And he just sees, okay, guess what happened to that story?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And it just kind of goes. Then he goes, boom, drops the next one. And then all of a sudden, boom, okay, there's something here. Why did they react the way they did? If the media reacts increasingly frustrated and scared to this, he rattled them. And he keeps going. Great point. So he's playing that. He's not focused on this. This is just something he's playing with the opposition.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That's, again, my opinion. I could be wrong and you could be right. I'm just giving you my interpretation of what I think is going on here.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
He's channeling Joe Biden. That's right. So Don Lemon then, Bill Maher then has Batia, Sergon explaining tariffs to him. And it's a very, very unique exchange. Good for him for having these types of conversations. Two of them are with Bill Maher. We're going to talk about the Greenland mineral deals. BlackRock, which is kind of weird.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Great. Okay, so that's that story. Again, watch this. Do you care if Joe Biden used an auto pen?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
No, no, guys, you're not making any sense. We're going to move on.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
No, no, you're not. You just went from, is it in your top three? Is it in your top five? It is in the top ten. So you don't even know what question you want to ask.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Go ahead, do it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Adam, if you had a person... Say your mother, let me kind of bring this personal to you. Say you lived in a blue state, which you don't, and say you're independent, libertarian, or conservative, okay? You lived in a blue state, and your mother's at a hospital somewhere, and it's during COVID. She's not doing well. She's got two weeks left to live. Say you have kids, her grandkids, your nephew.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
The hospital says you can't come see her. She passes away without you being allowed to go see her. I guarantee you that would be in your top three. That's the difference. Yeah, it would. Okay, but you are not the average person. You're a guy that doesn't have a car. Right. You're not the average American.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Because you're such an anomaly. You're not the average person. That's true. You are not the average person. The average person went through a lot of this pain. They went through this. They fought on this. By the way, remember, you just became a supporter. You were not in 2020. 2020, you voted for Biden.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
The people that are pissed off about this is because they voted for Trump in 2020 and saw what happened. You did not. You just came through here in the last couple of years. Not even a couple of years, 18 months. But think about it. So did Elon Musk. So did Joe Rogan. What's your point? They can't support the president but also not support this? Nobody is saying that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Rob, if you can tell me what page the story is on for the BlackRock one, because these are my new notes. If you can just text it to me. BlackRock. buys Panama Canal a few weeks ago quietly and nobody talks about it for $22.8 billion. It is controlled by Panama, but BlackRock buys it. How do you feel about it? I don't know. I don't know. We can talk about it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Look, for example, do you care? Is the transgender stuff in your top three?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
But is that in your top three?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Yes. Do you think transgender is in Elon Musk's top three? I think it is. Why? Because it's part of the woke mind of his kids. All I'm saying, your positioning is an insult to the audience for what they're going through.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Everybody has a different thing they're experiencing. There's a reason why this is landing the way it is with people is because people want to find out why the hell a Fauci got immunity. And immunity for what? You didn't commit any crime yet. Why aren't they giving you immunity? Is it because of a future crime? What is that movie? Minority Report. Is that what it is? What is it?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Let's find out about it. That's all people are saying. So, by the way, we could go back to Tom's first thought when he said, if this goes to the Supreme Court and this goes 5-4, done. This is bad news if it goes that route. I hope it does. And if it doesn't, it is what it is. It means there wasn't much interest in it, but I hope President Trump and his camp Takes it to that level. Okay, next one.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Rob, I got a clip from Elon Musk sitting down with Ted Cruz. If you can go to it, Rob. Elon Musk, do you have that clip, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Did I send it here? Oh, I have it in my notes. If you go in my notes, here, I'll just send it to you. It's all the way at the top. You have to watch this because this is very, very interesting. Very interesting clip. When it comes on to this. OK, so if you watch this part here with Elon Musk, folks, it's two minutes and 30 seconds, give or take. I want you to watch every word.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
By the way, earlier in a clip of this podcast, Ted Cruz asked him, who do you think is the smartest man in the world? And he said, Larry Ellison, he said first. Then he said Larry Page. Then he gave credit to Jeff Bezos. And he gave credit to a couple other people. And then he comes back and he says, but to be a smart human being today is going to be nothing in 10 years. Exactly.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
So it was very interesting how he put it. But I want you to watch this here. Watch this here. And then the last question he asks him about what's going to happen with AI and robots in the next 10. And the answer he gives him, Ted Cruz is flabbergasted. Watch this clip. Go for it.

You are a one-on-one? My son's right there.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
It's definitely an interesting thing to talk about. Democrats have the lowest rating in the last 30 years, according to CNN. Since they started measuring this, it's the lowest it's ever been for 30 years. But they're still not learning their lessons, which maybe they want to break their own records. And you've got to respect it. They're very competitive. Beat your prior best.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Think about it this way. If facts are what you care about, who can do a better debate than Chad GBT versus Grok? If facts is what you care about, and you just wanted no personality, no emotion, no being wrong, none of that stuff, What other debate would you want to see about Grok versus Chad? What if there's a podcast that AI is able to create that Chad GBT debates Grok and it's playing 24-7?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
You would ask a video and they debate each other on a topic.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Think about that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That's sick. That's what's coming soon. And by the way, a regular person can take this idea right now. And do it. Any topic you throw, you look at both of them. Any topic, you throw both of them. See what they say. Meaning, that's the direction you're going with debates, conversations, robots. They're going to be able to build robots that can dunk from half court.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
What is that going to mean when you go to a game? Tom, what are your thoughts about what Musk said here?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Beat your prior best. And then I saw something, a clip I got to show to you guys from the 80s. These two guys from two different computer companies are showing off their computers. And the guy's asking questions of how much these computers are. You will be blown away at the price of these computers in that time. Canada is the latest hit to hit America where it hurts.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Tom's got some thoughts on that as a Canadian. His family's Canadian. He was born and raised here. Then we have a couple other things with the pardons we'll address. U.S. Senate passed a stopgap funding bill to avert government shutdown. Charlemagne, the God. Schumer, Jeffrey should step down. Schumer had a rough week. A lot of people going after Schumer.

Okay, here we go. Lots of stories, folks, to cover here today. We did a poll finding out which one you guys want to talk about. You want to talk about the Conor McGregor speaking at the White House as if he's going to be going and saving Ireland. And by the way, he gave a message afterwards. What do you think about what this person had to say? He says, I employ 200 or 300 people.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I have a clip by Elon Musk, an interview with Ted Cruz. Guys, this is a very disturbing clip. I'm telling you, it's a very disturbing clip when I play it to you. I actually got to tell you, Ted Cruz should start a podcast. I don't know if he did or not. It was actually very good questions he asked.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I don't know what it is, but it was great. It was great questions he asked. We got some things with JPMorgan Chase. Lawrence O'Donnell taking a break. He says, I'm exhausted at Trump's Day 52.

But by the way, there's a word for that, what he just said. And it starts with the letter R, ends with the letter T. I think there's a word for that. I can't get the words in the middle of it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Because I might go E. It's an R-A-C-I. How does this go?

Rob, can you show the clip of CNN showing how low the Democratic approval rating is, the lowest since CNN's been measuring it for 30 years? This is what Adam was talking about earlier. If you can find that clip, Rob, watch this, folks. This is CNN. I can't believe it. Reporting on Democrats. A Democrat can't come and question this because it's CNN reporting it.

By the way, watch this. So while we're talking about this, and Don Lemon is saying what he's saying about boys, okay, that's controversial. Anthony Mackie in this video may seem like a MAGA.

A couple weeks ago, I spilled the whole thing, and I'm driving. I'm like, this place smells like a protein drink. I said, wow, this thing's very strong.

Media Matters is not happy with what happened in 2024. And Media Matters is forced to write an article titled, The Right Dominates the Online Media Ecosystem. seeping into sports, comedy, and other supposedly non-political spaces.
PBD Podcast

Notice the keyword was what? Supposedly. Other political spaces. So let's read this article, see what Media Matters has to say about it. Media Matters study of 320 online shows found that right-leaning ones like Joe Rogan, with 39.9 million followers, dominates with 480 million total followers across platforms nearly five times Left-leaning shows holding 82% of the $584 million.

Above all, the broadcasters described American men as victims of a Democratic campaign to strip them from their power, while Pew noted 31% trust podcasts over traditional news up from 2016.

Shame on him to say anything. So it looks like he wants to do something. That was interesting. There's a very interesting thing we found in Gene Hackman's article living trust in their will, which is very weird that if they died within 90 days of each other, very confusing when you see something like that. Definitely very weird.

The most important. That's not how it is. The way you got to look at it is that's not the way to look at it. You have to look at it as their pie is a quarter, right? Okay. So whatever number it's shown on the top, right? You have to multiply their... Treat their quarter as 100%. So if you treat their quarter as 100%, their 16.2 is really 16.2 times 4. So it's 60.

So their comedy is times 4, 32. Our comedy is 13.5. Their entertainment is times 4, say whatever, is 7%. Their technology is... So we're spending more time on certain things than they are. Mm-hmm. Our education is the same. We're talking religion and spirituality. They're not. They're not at all. We're talking health and wellness. Yes. I don't know where health and wellness is 6.3.

But you know what it is, though? If you go back to that chart, I noticed one thing. And let me tell you what it is. You know what I noticed? Valuetainment. That's what I noticed. The people on the right are valuetainers. They bring value, they entertain, and it's becoming a movement, period. So I'll look at somebody and say that's a Valuetainer, meaning he has Valuetainment in him.

Joe Rogan, Valuetainment. You got Theo Vaughn. I don't know if he's Valuetainment. I think he's a lot of Tainment. He's just pure Tainment. But every once in a while he asks questions that makes you think. But the left, you don't see a lot of Valuetainment.

it's victim, it's unfair, it's this, it's that. So on what you're saying, the fact that you're thinking it's going to split or if it's not, let me tell you what's going on.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I thought they have so much to criticize. Do you see what Lawrence O'Donnell said? Here's Lawrence O'Donnell taking a break. He says, I'm exhausted. At day 52 of Trump administration, Rob, go ahead and play this clip. And Rob found out something the other day.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Remember when we did the math of Rachel Maddow, how much you're paying her and it's not worth it, I think because she's got so much dirt on her that she's threatening that she's going to go out. And I thought she was only working once a day. Rob found out some stuff that maybe...
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
you know, that I said I was right and then I thought I was wrong and then Rob's like, no, you were actually right on what you were saying with the days because the way it's working out, Rob, I'll tell you here in a second. Rob, if you can play this clip here with what Lawrence O'Donnell is saying, it's very interesting. Go for it.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I'll read that. Then there's a video. of him talking about it. So this is the president. We talked about this last week, okay?

And then boom.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That clip is all over X that's being shared, but this is the president on the 17th sharing this yesterday.

I believe him. Here's a question. Here's a question, Tom. Why did the right do so well under Biden? And by the way, here's the other part. Why did CNN do so well under Trump? The first time around.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Sure, because it was a lot of people, you know, the swamp and all this other stuff. A lot of people were getting fired going in and out. So the only reason they're not exceeding is why. They would be exceeding if what?

In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them, but more importantly, he did not know anything about them. The necessary pardoning documents were not explained to or approved by Biden. He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime.

Okay, so that's that part. Now, Rob, go to the clip where the press secretary is being asked about it by CNN. How could you say something like this? How do you know the credibility behind it? 16 seconds. What she says at the end is very powerful. Go for it.

Lifted travel restrictions amid Trump's administration ties. Donald Trump Jr. dubbed their prior detention absolutely insanity, but instead Uthmeyer's probe involving search warrants and subpoenas and seizure of the Tate's electronics fueled Tate's rage.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
How did Tate, was there any level of insecurity with the amount of ladies and attention that Tom was getting versus going to, that was my biggest concern. I saw the videos. I mean, guys were asking Tom to sign bras, biz doc, and all this EBITDA on different things. How did he handle that?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Okay, so go lower, and I want to actually see the guy that says, Grok, what do you have to say about this? Go a little lower. Keep going lower, lower, lower. Is this all on my tweet, Rob, or no?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562

Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I've said it for years. We're going to see what happens. If the lawyers and the judge and the court has something, do it already. If you have it, do it. Get it over with. Prove it. Show it. Get it over with. If you have all of that stuff already, go out there and get it done. What are you guys waiting for? Why is it taking so long? If you got to do it, right?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That's the part that's frustrating for the people. And for those who, there are people that want to see it because, you know, some of the comments he's made about men and women and the videos, everybody's seen all the videos, whatever it is. If they're guilty, do it. If not, if they have to release, it's going to be embarrassing. It's going to be embarrassing for Romania when that happens.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Okay, right there. Go above that. Okay, go above that on what somebody said, because I posted that above somebody that said, Grok, can you verify this? Hey, Pat, genuine question. Where is it written that it has to be a wet signature? Curious. So I asked JadGBT, and Grok responded to this. We asked, can presidents use Autopen for pardons? No, U.S. presidents cannot use an Autopen to sign pardons.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
And a lot of people will be unhappy. Anyways, let's go to the next one. This next one is a topic that Adam really wants to comment on because for whatever reason, it's his favorite sport to watch. Angel Reese says WNBA players could go on strike over salary and benefits. All right, so Angel Reese says this. Rob, if you want to play this, you know what I love watching?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562

PBD Podcast

I need to get in the meetings because I'm hearing like, yeah, if y'all don't give us what we want, like, we sitting out.

Is that Shaq's 24 shoes in the back? That's Shaq's shoes right when he came out. Yeah, those are Shaq's shoes in the back. So let me read this to you. So they're upset. They want to get paid. Possibility Reese has been vocal about her low WNBA salary, revealing her $74,000 a year salary, doesn't cover rent, stating on Instagram Live, I just hope you know that the WNBA doesn't pay my bills at all.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I don't even think they pay one of my bills. Reese's financial struggles stem from WNBA salary not matching her past earnings as her NIL. Valuation at LSU was $1.8 million. Bolstered by deals with Reebok, PlayStation, McDonald's, and Coach. While a four-year rookie deal was $324,000 with $74,000 due next season. She quipped hating pay. Hating pays them bills, baby.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Noting brand deals, not basketball, sustain her especially since the WNBA's $200 million revenue last season only allocated 9.3% to salaries, unlike the NBA's 50% share of the $5.3 billion in 2023. Adam, thoughts?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
The Constitution... grants the president an all-executive, all-inclusive order to issue pardons under Article Section 2, and legal interpretation suggests that a pardon must be personally signed. What signature? By the president to be valid. Now watch what Grok says. Grok responds and says, research shows Autopen is likely valid for pardons, not just admin docs.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
The NBA players support the WNBA, like, more than we probably support the fucking NBA.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
I got it. So, Rob, go to ChatGBT and type the following thing. How much did the WNBA lose in 2024? You can type that up. How much did the WNBA lose?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
So, losing 2024, they lost $40 million. Your before was $50 million. So, it's some progress that they're making. Yeah. From the 40-50. Progress, guys. Now, watch this. Watch this here. To address the financial situation, I ask, the WNBA is... Rob, if you go up and ask the other question as well. Ask, is it true that the WNBA makes money when they don't play?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Is it true that the WNBA makes money when they don't play? Ask that question.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Yes. In a way, the WNBA has historically lost money and receives financial support from the NBA, which means that the WNBA games are not played. The league can actually save money by avoiding operating costs. Did you guys understand what happened right there? So WNBA makes money. So if they go on a strike, the NBA is like, awesome. However, let me give you some data.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
No legal rule requires a wet signature. Presidents like Obama use it for bills, and Biden's pardons faced. No legal avoiding despite debate. Your claim, I cannot read the rest, Rob, on the bottom, seems off-base on history and practice. You got Chad, GBT, and Grok who don't agree with each other. The only thing that's left is us bringing in a constitutional lawyer.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Here's the only thing that you got to look at. WNBA has lost money every single year since 1997. According to the reports, the WNBA has operated an annual loss of $10 million to $12 million. NBA has owned half of the WNBA financial support. NBA players pay for their salaries, by the way.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
If the WNBA has broadcasting and sponsorship agreements that often pays out regardless of how many games are played, if the league cuts costs, the 2020 season could go a little bit lower. Bottom line is the WNBA doesn't make any money. Go back to the other question that we asked all the way at the top.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
That's massive for them. So that's the argument they're making. That's the Caitlin Clark effect.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Then when it comes down to merch from 23 to 24, they're up 601%. Then when it comes down to being broadcasted on ESPN, they average 1.2 million viewers per game, 170% increase. So the viewership is higher, and they're asking for the money. And if the contract on the back end, the revenue, NBA gets 50-plus percent to players, they do 9.3%. There's an argument for it to be played. But you're right.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
If Caitlin Clark gets injured, it's over with. Tom, any thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
By the way, Grok kept getting involved and saying more things and more things and more things and more things. This was actually a very good experience. I would love to see a podcast between Grok and right there. Click on that one right there. That's exactly it. Goal of lore. Goal of lore, Rob. So he's questioning. So then Grok responds.

It's marketing dollars. They're losing money every year, but they're gaining votes. That's how they view it. They're viewing it as that. They're not looking at it as a profitable channel that they have. It's just purely marketing dollars to seem noble and do what they do.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Well, we will see. By the way, I have to tell you, Caitlin Clark, minus what comments she made last year, I have no interest watching her now after the comments that she made. Zero interest in watching her. I see. She was actually exciting. She got white guilt, Pat. She was actually exciting to watch, and I'm out. And honestly, I was one that was defending her. I'm like, you know what?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
You want to make a comment like that? Another person that's out, I have no interest in watching any of it. She was the one that was going to get an audience like me to sit there and watch a game with her daughter. I got two of them. After that comment was made, I'm out. So let me go to the next story here. Gene Ackman. Gene Hackman's kids not mentioned in his will.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Here's what could happen to his $80 million fortune. Guys, it's a little weird story here, so let me read it to you. Gene Hackman, 95-year-old Oscar-winning actor known for The French Connection and The Birdcage, and his 65-year-old wife, Betsy Arakawa, were found dead in their Santa Fe, New Mexico home, February 26, 2025, with their wills revealing that Hackman's three children, son Christopher,
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
and daughter Leslie and Elizabeth were not included as beneficiaries, TMZ reports that in 1995, Hackman, named Arkawa, the sole beneficiary of his $80 million estate, a decision complicated by their simultaneous debts within days of each other.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
Arakawa had a hantai virus, a rare virus linked to rodents on February 11th, and Hackman from a cardiac event on February 18th, seven days apart, worsened by advanced Alzheimer's and severe heart disease. Listen to this provision, folks. This is where it gets interesting. The wills included a provision that if they died within 90 days of each other, a.k.a.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Biden Bombshell: Pardons Are VOID & VACANT | PBD Podcast | Ep. 562
a simultaneous death, all of Arakawa's assets would go to charity, not to his three kids. Leaving the children potentially excluded since New Mexico community property states adds legal complexity without a prenup from their 1991 marriage.

Why am I not getting clearance? While he's trying to get up there. It's kind of weird. He says, look, I'm not telling you anything. All I'm saying is I do this for a living.

He says 50% chance China's behind it. and they're working on something. They've been talking about war for a while. Now, this guy's speculation is the fact that the lady asked him a question at the end. Should we be worried?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And on top of that, Apple CEO Tim Cook visits Mar-a-Lago. There was an interview done with Trump that I want to show you a clip.

And go through it.
PBD Podcast

Not foreign, not military.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
That's what's being said. Individuals. Exactly. Maybe CIA, maybe Department of Homeland Security, maybe FBI. But he says, we've not had a war in our soil since 1812. That's what Gordon Chang is talking about. And we have to be ready for this to be a war. He is saying this. Now, whether it is or not, it is what it is.

Then Chase Hughes, who's a Navy intelligence guy, chief, and he's got very interesting views that he talks about. He says, look, let me just kind of give you guys a breakdown.

PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
He says, number one, okay, is distraction is a tactic. Is this happening because they're distracting us from a major event that's going on? Well, what is a major event that's going on? Well, a new guy's about to take office. And what's going to happen if he takes office? A lot of people who have power and control for a long time may lose a lot of their privileges.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So it could be a distraction tactic. Number two. Using fear as a tool to unite. Fear. The government uses fear a lot as a tool to unite. So if there's a threat big enough, we will unite. Cold War was called what? A Red Scare, right? Post 9-11, they used 9-11 as weapons of mass destruction for them to introduce what to us? Terror. The Patriot Act, right?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And what came after 9-11 in November of 2001? TSA. Before that, you would just go. So everything became more surveillance of the people. You need a mass. So this could be a way. To say, here's what's going on. Let me tell you, because of this, we need to introduce the next, you know, da-da-da. So we need to kind of be careful with that. Then testing the waters.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521

We may need to shut down. We may need to shut down. We may need to shut down. Every outlet that says the same thing, then we're like, we may need to shut down. What are you saying?

We may need to take the kids out of school. This is horrible. Is it worth it? One life, one life. So everybody was like, yeah, we need to shut down schools. And then the government was like, wow, these guys are dumb enough to buy into it. That's great. Let's push a little bit more by using this fear. In 1964, the Gulf of Tonkin is a body of water in Southeast Asia.

They used the fear of that to be able to escalate the war on Vietnam. The reports of fake naval ships that are out there, guess what? That helped them as well. And then he continues, continues.

Tell me that is not crazy. To think about. Greg Popovich cannot help himself but destroy the NBA even more. By the way, they're down 48% in the last 12 years.

Yet it is still surprising to hear him attach his views to a topic that was already explosive enough in 2003, the sexual charge against Copeland.

Hawks, Celtics, Hornets, Pistons, Warriors, Lakers, Grizzlies, Blazers, Kings, Spurs, Raptors made nothing. No contribution. Knicks, Dolan, left. And it's pretty much all left on the Dolan side. No contributions, Jazz. Wizards, no contributions. The point is this.

You're not going to get paid if you're not doing that. During 2020, approximately 81% of contributions from me and Oren were toward Republican candidates. Okay, boom.

I want you to watch president's body language here when he's being asked about drones. You know his language when he's playful. You know his language when he's having fun. You know his language when he's prepared for tough questions. None of those body language are you going to feel here. But I want you to watch this, not from what he's saying. Watch his mannerisms.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Okay. All right. Well, that's that. We'll see what's going to happen. Listen, if on day one he pardons, how many people are in jail right now for J6? What's the number?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
How many are in jail for J6 right now? For a long time. For a long time. I think he will. 562 have been sentenced to periods of incarceration. He will, approximately 9,400, have had their case. Adjudicated and received sentences for the government. Okay. He has claimed, if I'm not mistaken, that he's going to pardon every one of those guys on day one. I hope so. Okay. On day one.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So we'll see what will happen with that on day one. Okay. Next story here on what's going on with... Costs of raising a child, twice as high in some states as others. Rob, can you pull up the story on – oh, there's not a video on this. Okay. So the annual cost of raising a child varies widely across the U.S. with Massachusetts being the most expensive, $35,841 per year per child. Damn.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
You have three kids. It costs you $100,000 a year just to raise a kid. This is after-tax money.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
That's after-tax money. That means you've got to make $200,000, pay half in taxes to be able to afford to raise three kids. Larger by child care costs of $21,000. In contrast, in Mississippi, it's $16,000. Significantly lower cost of child care, $4,700. The lifetime cost of raising a child between the two states is a staggering difference of $439,000.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Additional housing expenses for raising a child are the highest in Hawaii. $61.88. California, $55.73. While food and medical costs remains other significant contributors across states. For instance, in Hawaii, food costs $24.81 annually, while New York records medical costs at $24.42. Child care alone exceeds $15,000 in annual states. In Hawaii, $19,592. Connecticut, $19,554.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
and creating a stark contrast to states like Arkansas that's only $7,300 and Louisiana $7,800, where the total annual cost remains under $18,000. Tom, when you see a number like this, okay, how many different states have you lived in for more than a year, you personally?

Right. Okay. So California, Florida, and Texas, right? If you're a family that is looking at numbers like this, you're in places like New York, California, Boston, you want a fighting chance. What do you do if you want to have kids and at the same time you see what's going on with the cost of living?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Very quiet, Tom. Things just got very, very quiet. So, no, I'm looking at this. Meanwhile, our friend Humberto in the back is, I think, asking for some paid leave, Rob, if you want to pull up one of the... You know which one I'm talking about, Rob. If you can pull this up, watch this here. Paid maternity leave in the West. Sweden, 15 months at 80% pay. Norway, 46 weeks.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
That's almost a year at 100% pay. Germany, 14 weeks. That's four months, right, at 100% pay. Then France, 16 weeks, 100% pay. Spain, 16 weeks, 100% pay. Czech, 28 weeks, 70% pay. Brazil, 17 weeks, 100% pay. Colombia, 18 weeks, 100% pay. Guatemala, 12 weeks, 100% pay. And U.S., zero weeks. The U.S. is the only developed country in the world with no federal maternity leave.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Yeah, exactly. I mean, if you're smart. Yeah. I mean, you know, sometimes when I see charts like this, what it makes me think about, here's what it makes me think about. Okay, Rob, let's do, let's do something. Let's do something. Can you go to every one of those countries and see how many babies they're having per year? The women in those countries, how many kids are having per year?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Because this data could be like, well, this is why they're having more kids than us. Maybe you're right. Let's see. Let's check every one of these guys and let's check all the countries to see if they're really having more. More kids than we are, Rob. So just go one at a time. What did Sweden tell us? Sweden says how many? Sweden is the lowest number of birds in the last decade. Wow.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
So it doesn't make a difference if you're doing that. Go to the next one, which is who? Norway, 1.4. 1.4, 2.1 is what you need for your population to grow. U.S. is at 1.7, and they're at 1.4. Go to the next one. Go to the next one. What's Germany at? Maybe Germany is a very big number, and they're just absolutely crushing it. Again, the number of people in Germany has decreasing in recent years.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Go a little, okay, 1.35. You see that right there? The fertility rate in Germany has been dropping, falling to 1.35 per child. Okay, so here's the point. Even with that, it's not working. Go to the left with that one tweet that you had. No, to the left, Rob, to the one tweet. Yeah, right there.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Even with that, it's not working because sometimes you'll see data like this and they'll say, wait, we need to be like Europe. We need to be like this. Yeah, why don't we go become socialist? Let's just do that. Let's just kind of go become like Brazil and some of these other places. Let's go ahead and do that. You know how many sick days, maternity?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
I mean, it's just staggering when you're watching this. However, let me do tell you this part. We pulled up a number on Dinks and Dwicks. You know, Dinks are what? Dual income, no kids. And then the other one is Dwicks. Dual with dual income with kids. It's kind of like Dicks. It's D-I-W-K-S. My favorite. Yeah, Dicks. So Dinks and the Wicks. You know between the two, who makes more money?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Those with kids or those without kids?
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
No, without kids makes more money. $9,000 per year. With kids. No, without kids they make more money. Without kids they make $9,000 more. But the point right now when you're going and looking at some of the stuff here on the cost of living, of raising a child, hey man, you got two things you have to sacrifice. What's one thing you're going to sacrifice? One is not having kids.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
What's the other thing you're going to sacrifice? The other one is your maybe personal time that you have or maybe that nice moment clothes you're going to buy or nice restaurant you go to or more barbecue money to be spent and stuff like that versus, no, man, we're going to have a family. We're going to have kids. We're going to invest money into our family, into the stuff that we're doing.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
We're going to make that investment rather than the cost and the expense. That's the difference, right? There is a sacrifice no matter what. One sacrifice lasts a few years. The other one comes with the benefit of a companion. It's something you look forward to for decades and decades and decades to come. I once read a proverb, which I think is a Jewish proverb, and I've said this many times.

You can pause it right there. Okay, so mannerisms. You know what vibe it gives me? Here's a vibe it gives me. When you're selling a business and the buyer agrees to buy it at a price and you're selling it, we've been through this process, you're raising money, you're doing all this stuff, we've done it many times.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
Can you break down to the average person signal versus noise? Like signal is you're paying attention to what's going to grow the company, the stuff that you should actually look at. Noise is just a bunch of gibberish and noise that's being made, and you're not getting distracted by the noise.

But when you're selling a business and it's going through the 90-day process, the six-month process, whatever it is, the seller is never convinced that it's going to be done until the money hits the account. The feeling you have is, what if? What if the lawyer screwed up? What if last minute they try to change the price? What if some surprise comes?

Because the buyer's job is to pay as little as possible for anything they're buying, right? So there's a little bit of games going on. The feeling I get when I watch this year with his interview is I have a feeling some people on the inside have reached out to him and spoken to him that you and I don't know that, but a lot of people are going to Mar-a-Lago.
PBD Podcast
ABC Pays Trump $15M, January 6 Cover Up, Trudeau To Resign, NJ Drone Theories | PBD Podcast | Ep. 521
And he knows some stuff, but obviously he can't give those names. And those people have probably also said, don't say anything. When you come in, we're going to work on it together. But he also seemed a little bit paranoid between now and January 20th. Like, listen, don't over-celebrate. Don't be anything until we get in. We got to get in.

There was some feeling of that that I felt here that maybe they're using this as a tactic to get something through. It could be 20%, 30%, 40%, but it could be something there. I'm watching this guy. named Chase Hughes, who is a U.S. Navy intelligence chief. I'll share with you what breakdown he gave. But before I go to it, very interesting what he said that you've got to think about this year.

What it comes down to is the average age of somebody in L.A. Rob, if you want to pull it up, the average age of somebody in L.A. right now is... 37. That's exactly the number. Is it? It's 37 years old, okay? The average age of somebody in L.A. is 37 years old. 36 and a half, that's 2022. Today's 37 years old. Okay. How many of this... people at 37 years old.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
If you go back and think about when you're 37 years old, what events are a 37-year-old going through? They probably got married. They probably have a kid or two at 37 years old. The average 37-year-old is what I'm talking about, right? So they have a kid or two, and what decisions are you making at that age? The decisions you're making is, do we buy a house? Do we not buy a house?

And anybody else you may know, you can connect any one of us. Vinny, Tom, Adam, myself, we want to make those calls fairly as soon as possible because some of them need the resources ASAP. So, again, very happy about that taking place, $108,000 that we raised collectively together. Let me get into some of the stories here. Obviously, there's a lot more things that are coming up with the L.A.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Do we start a business? Do we not start a business? Do we go and get another MBA, or do I get a little bit additional education to be able to get a promotion? What you're thinking, because guess what's about to come up? 40 to 55, that's your money-making years that you're about to enter.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
45 to 60, but 40 to 55 is when you really can make some money, and then you compound it from 55 to 70 years old. All right. If you... Watching all this stuff that's taking place. Think about the 37-year-old. They go to bed at night, laying next to their wife. And they're talking. Babe. You think we should still buy that house? I don't think so, babe.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
But don't you think there's going to be a discount after the fire? Babe, no. Forget about the discount. Babe, what do you think we do with this? Do we start that business in L.A.? Do we start that thing here? Anything you say, do we buy that house? Do we start that business? Do we grow into this community? What you're saying is, if you say yes, you're saying you trust L.A.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
that the politicians in California that have a super majority in the House, in the Senate, they control it all. When you control it all, guess what you get to say? All the good that happened is because of us. But what's the problem when you control it all? Anything that bad that happens, it's what? It's on you.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So he can't say, well, you know, the reason why, you know, California and why we're going through this is because the Congress in California didn't approve the $2.5 billion that have been sitting there that we would have helped us. You can't say that. There is no gridlock. You are the gridlock. That 37-year-old is who they have to worry about. This 37-year-old is not famous.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
This 37-year-old doesn't have 100,000 followers on Instagram. This 37-year-old is not a multimillionaire. This 37-year-old is not a Hollywood star. This is a regular 37-year-old that's trying to make a decision of where do I go raise my kids the next 30 years? And they're asking... Buying a house, where do I put my kids? Career, starting a business. Let's go through each one of them.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Buying a house. Do you think homeowners insurance is going to go up or down in California?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Skyrocket. Do you think homeowners insurance companies are going to stay or leave the state of California?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay. Let's go to number two. Starting a business. Do you think regulations in the state of California are going to favor small business owners or are going to make your life a living hell? They're going to work against you.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Do you think starting a business with people coming and stealing from you, do you think the governor, the politicians in the state of California are going to protect you or are they going to defend the other person? Other person. Exactly. Okay, so now we have buying a house.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And if you buy a house and you want to make it your own and you want to get a permit to build a bedroom in a backyard, to have your in-laws stay in, how long do you think it's going to take for you to get them? Years. Okay. So then we go to the next one. You got kids. Hey, babe, let's have kids. Your kid is two years old. You have two of them, a two-year-old and a four-year-old, right?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And you're sitting there saying, what school do we put them in? Do we put them in private? Do we put them in public? Do you trust the direction the education is going in the state of California? No. With Drag Queen Hour? How long do you think it's going to take for it to turn? Will it ever turn? I think the part that's going to be the slowest thing to turn in California is education.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Maybe they'll fix the permit. Maybe they'll fix some of that stuff. Maybe. But the permit is going to take a while, and the education is going to take a long-ass time for them to fix. So that 37-year-old is going to sit there and say, how do we leave this place? So California thinks the mass exodus was the one that they had.

Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Can you go to the census, Rob, that shows how many people left California? The U.S. census shows California lost 1.234 million. And then type in census. If you can type census.

wildfires. You saw the number right now. I think it's 24 total death toll I saw earlier this morning. And I think the damages right now is $250 billion of damages. And at the same time, the winds. I spoke to a bunch of friends yesterday. The winds for today. Everyone's praying for this week on what's going to happen with the winds that are coming in. They're worried that it's going to get worse.

Think about that. That's the first one. Okay, so you know what this means? They think that's the last exodus. You have to understand that exodus was a different exodus because that exodus was a chokehold. That exodus was kids are at home, homeschooling. I can't go to work. I can't breathe. I just want a freaking life. I want to get out. You can't go to the beach. I'm out of this freaking place.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
You left for a different reason. This reason of leaving is not that reason. It's like this. You know you work for a company and you say, I'm going to be here for 40 years. This is it. This is where I'm going to finish up my career. They give you health insurance. They give you 401K, and you love the benefits. All of a sudden, one day, they're like, guess what, guys? 401K is gone.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Health insurance is gone. Da-da-da-da, gone. Gym will close, and I'm done. All the benefits is gone. What are you going to do? I'm leaving. That's the point.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
What are you talking about? This is the part. The job of a company is to make sure it keeps it attractive for people to be there long-term. The job of a state is to do the same thing so you attract the right types of people and stay. The good ones stay and don't leave. Now this is going on. So now some people are saying, well, Pat, this is intentional.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
This is what people like you don't understand. They want people like you to leave. They want the people that are the 37-year-old hardworking business owners to leave. They want everybody to leave. They want the people to stay. That is their intention. They want to do that. Let's just say if that is the truth.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
This next exodus California is going to be experiencing, Tom, what would you be thinking about at 37 years old? How would you decide? Would you just sit there and be like, take it?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
But God willing, everything's going to work out. There's a lot of different stories. I saw a story about Michael Johnson, the four-time gold medalist, the way he went about trying to protect his home. There's another insurance company story that came out on December 16th. Wall Street Journal wrote about it. And I looked at different ways of preventing this from happening in the future.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I think both you and Vinny are right because the distinction, Tom, is the following. I don't think the Hollywood people they're going to lose all of those guys because they fear the favorites.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
No, you're right, and that's the distinction between the two. Yesterday I had an hour conversation with Sharon Osbourne, and she is Hollywood. If you remember, Sharon Osbourne was the one that on the streets, she's walking, she says, so what do you think about BLM? She says, the biggest fraud, we gave them $900,000. I don't know if you remember when she said that. Yeah, of course.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So they can't even believe what's going on with L.A. right now. Let me go to Khloe Kardashian. So here's the Hollywood, okay? It doesn't get bigger than the names Kardashian. That's the name, right? Okay, so Khloe Kardashian slammed by liberals for calling out Mayor Karen Bass over response in L.A. fires. Rob, do you have a clip on this? Oh, this is the one that she posted, right?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay, can you zoom in so I can read some of this stuff? So she posts this on Instagram. I stand by you, Chief Crowley. You spoke the truth and had tears in your eyes because I can't tell you didn't even want to say that. It was the truth. Okay, go a little bit lower. And says, thank you for being honest, Chief Crowley. Mayor Bass, you are a joke. Okay? Interesting. So here we go with the story.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
New insurance company, because a lot of people are asking me, saying, who do I go to? My insurance got canceled. We got a bunch of things with FIRE that we'll discuss here today. stories on Newsom, stories on Schiff, stories on video, stories on Karen Bass, the mayor finally responding, but an uncomfortable response.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Khloe Kardashian called that L.A. mayor a joke on Instagram, accusing her of cutting the L.A. fire department budget before the devastating wildfires. Kardashian shared a clip of L.A. fire... Chief Kristen Crowley alleging she asked, is this the clip, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Post the clip here. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Yes. Wow. Dude, it's not easy to do that because she knows like... What's coming after. She knows what's coming. Liberals criticized Kardashian for remarks with one saying, it's interesting how Khloe, Elon Musk, Kardashian have been very quick to call Mayor Bass a joke but had no smoke for Trump, J.D. Vance, and Elon during the past...
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Election, another added, Khloe got some nerve calling the mayor of L.A. a joke when she literally has, Tristan Thomas said, that critics are also wrongly accused Khloe Kardashian of exceeding water usage limits during California drought, which had actually been reported about her sister Kimiko. So you see this, right, while this is taking place.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Does Karen Bass finally respond, Rob, to all the criticism?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And Rob, do me a favor and pull up this clip, and then I'll come to you guys. While you're pulling that up, I got one thing to say.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Khloe Kardashian, imagine you got almost a half a billion followers, and your name, your brand that you guys have built up together, you're Hollywood, okay? And you're so sick of it that you finally said, I am flipping fed up. that the market now reacts, how could you say something like this? And she's like, what are you talking about? This is insane. This is our livelihood.

Tom, you okay? He's fired up. I love it.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That's not leadership. Go to the independent one, Rob. Karen Bass once insisted she wouldn't go abroad as L.A. mayor. Instead, she took five city-funded trips overseas.

Go speak to the families of the people that lost their homes, the $250 billion of them. Go to the 24 total deaths that took place. How many people, by the way, when you're going through this, Tom, how much have you found solutions and what's going to be happening with insurance.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Because when I'm looking at this right now and I'm reading this insurance story, okay, that says, Rob, where's that story about insurance companies leaving? I know it's one of the stories that we wanted to talk about.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
We're part of the city. We'll talk about that as well. Looters trying to capitalize with all the stuff that's going on. There's videos all over the place with looters trying to get in. Still, they see this as an opportunity and we'll definitely highlight what happened there. In regards to another story of what happened with the money that they took back.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Yeah, so check this out. California, this is a fortune story, folks. California bans insurance cancellation in L.A. fire affected areas. Okay? In L.A. fire affected areas. Who are you to ban insurance cancellation? Insurance companies are going to leave because you are not creating the climate a place for them to stay. These are underwriters that are sitting there saying, why would I stay?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay, let me read this to you. And then, Tom, I'm going to come to you because I've been looking at some stuff, and I want to know if you found anything here. I have some thoughts, some solutions. I'm sure you do as well. California banned insurance from canceling or not rewriting residential property policies in an L.A.

neighborhood that were affected by the blazes that destroyed swaths of the city this week. The state's insurance commissioner, Ricardo Lara, issued a one-year mandatory moratorium to shield... Those in these neighborhoods are adjoining zip codes of the Palisades and East Eaton fires. Whether they suffered a loss or not, this order applies to all residential property policies.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
enforced as of January 7th when Gavin Newsom declared state emergency. The California Department of Insurance may extend a moratorium to other zip codes that could become effective on wildfires. Our top priority is protecting Californians during this crisis and helping us recover. People don't face the added stress of finding new insurance during this horrific event.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That's Laura adding to the moratorium. Tom, your thoughts on this? Yeah, so I've been diving into what is going to happen
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
from Daily Caller, gay choirs, trans cafes, and social justice art, what LA spent money on while cutting its fire budget. You tell me if that's a good idea. Insurance stocks tumble as L.A. fires threaten record losses. California bans insurance cancellation in L.A. fire-affected areas. Trump trolls Harris by posting a periodic conversation between him and Obama. It's pretty funny.
PBD Podcast

Is this about insurance?
PBD Podcast

You've got to see it. By the way, let's just say in the future you have a job and you become a judge. Let's say you're a judge, okay? Don't ever text a picture of an ankle bracelet, the monitor, the ankle monitors. You showed me this earlier. Don't ever text that to the wrong person and then get in trouble for it and get fired. Again, just feedback for people.

Unbelievable. But let's stay on this. I'm interested in solutions. So I looked up to see... Who were some of the people that were able to prevent their homes from, like, I Googled and searched which houses made it and why. That's what I'm interested in. Which houses made it and why. Type in Michael Johnson house fire. Yeah. And it's a story. Let me see who it's by. It's a story by Michael Johnson.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Yeah, put Olympic athlete. Olympic athlete.

200-meter dash. Champ. So, okay. Wealthy homeowners and their insurance turned to hire. Okay, this is the one. To fight L.A. fires. Okay. Go a little bit lower to the Michael Johnson side. Let me see which one. Okay, there it is.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
When former Olympic gold medal sprinter Michael Johnson heard the Palisades fire was heading his way, he knew his multimillion-dollar hillside home in Malibu was in danger. Johnson didn't simply dial 911. He turned to his private firefighting system for protection.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Johnson pays $5,000 a year to lease the system a pump and hose apparatus that can draw large amounts of water from a swimming pool to help fight the progress of wildfires and backstop the city's municipal firefighters and hydrants. Okay, so this is a system. I think he said there's about 500... It'll tell you how much water is in the pool.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Just as Johnson and his wife started hosing down their property in hopes of preventing any embers from igniting, a man sent by the system supplier fire defense service showed up to help them. The Johnsons soon evacuated, believing they would never see their house again. But the man from fire defense stayed behind to help protect their house and a neighbor who was a client.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
His plan was to fight it if it came. Johnson, as the inferno engulfed, Tensions have flared over the crews of firefighters. And then there was another story. If you go a little bit lower, Rob, another person shows their house why it made it. And keep going lower. And he says the equipment you buy, he says the problem with wildfires is... The stuff you have inside the house.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So if you Google, Rob, houses that made it from the wildfire. So once the fire gets in the house, inside the house is the stuff it has. That's what caused it to just explode. You have a lot of things. So the equipment you buy to make sure. Yeah, I mean, I'll send it to you in a minute. But I think it's one of the above, Rob. It shows houses that actually made it. Yeah, that's the one right there.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Zoom in a little bit, Rob. Okay. Why these homes survived the L.A. fires. Go a little bit lower. So this is what I'm interested in. More than 12,000 structures have been gone. A brand-new house in the Pacific was designed and built by architect Greg Chase in the northern summer of 2024. Could have easily been one of them. None of other homes around it survived and car parked.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Out up front of neighbor was perfect vector to spread the flames. Yet on January 9th, after a night of devastation, Chasen found the house intact, barely touched by fire. A photo of the house posted on Malibu Architect went viral on X and a threat on Reddit swelled with guesses about who saved it. Can you open that up? Let's see what that looks like. Okay, I think that's the same house.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So you see that house right there? No word. The guy, the owner of the house said the following. Can I read? Yeah, there you go. No words, really, just a horror show. Some of the design choices we made here helped, but we were also very lucky. Zoom in a little bit. That's his house. Look at the stuff on the left and look at the stuff on the right, okay?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So now go back to the story, Rob, if you could, and let's continue. Luck was the biggest factor. Chase and concedes, but it wasn't Providence alone. If it weren't for several fire-resilient design strategies, the home would have been destroyed, this house. was a personalized labor of love and a dear friend. It means a lot from Korn. Thousands of Angelenos are still at risk.

Rob, if you got the picture, I don't know if you have it or not. If you don't, this is called double dumb. A judge texts this to a friend. called the My Very First Ankle What Monitor, okay? And it's a white judge. Text this out. Right, Rob? Where's the story with the white judge? Vinny was showing me this earlier.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Anyways, so go fireproofing. Let's see what it says. Go a little bit lower. Some of Jason's fireproofing decisions stand out in the picture. The yard is a protected area free of vegetation, fenced off by cast-in-place concrete garden walls with landscaping and sparse Mediterranean desert style. The homeowners... has been through fires before, so he was prepared.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
He removed rubbish bins and other loose items from around the house and even left the side gates open, knowing that a fire can spread along a fence to a house. We were unfortunate that the neighbor parked the car adjacent to the house. There's molten aluminum in the picture, 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit. That will prevent a lot of heat from getting into the house. Other design factors are more subtle.

Along the side of the house, there are no eaves or overhangs, which can form eddies or trap embers. Blown by high wind, the house doesn't have any attic vents to allow sparks to get inside the roof, which is metal. with a fire-resilient underlayment, and the house is simple, front-gabbled, without multiple roof lines. I mean, this is the part where if somebody is thinking about staying in L.A.

and building a house, call this guy, Jason. That guy's going to get a lot of phone calls because this is the perfect commercial for him. I built this house. Would you like me to do the same for you, right? Think about that. So then... I go on seeing which insurance companies in California or other insurance companies are looking at a solution to addressing the wildfire issues.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And I find this story on Wall Street Journal from December 16th. This is pre-fires. Think about it. December 16th is a month ago. Rob, I just sent it to you if you can pull it up. December 16th, insurance startup... has a plan to cover uninsurable homes. This new insurance company raised $30 million and is writing policies in California wildfire zones.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Hopefully they're still in business because that was a month ago, okay? Mark Mitchell spent more than $100,000 to make his family home in California, Santa Cruz Mountains, more resilient. to wildfires after it suffered damage when a nearby redwood growth burned in 2020. Despite his efforts, he couldn't find an insurance that could have covered his home for more than two years.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That is until Friday when Mitchell signed a contract with Stand Insurance. They are the only company that has been able to figure out how much we've done to protect our house and that it's a reasonable risk to insure. Stand is a new insurance startup that seeks to cover homes in areas other insurance are banning because of risks. from natural disasters like wildfires and studs.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
The company says its simulation software allows it to better predict risk and identify improvements homeowners should make to increase resiliency. This guy used to be a guy that was with Metromile, which, if you know Lemonade, now a publicly traded company, Lemonade. They've done well for themselves.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Insurance companies are not financing insurance companies right now, but these guys got the $30 million. One of the things, Tom, thoughts for you, is while this is taking place, what if the governor goes out and says following, We have to think about solutions and we have to bring problem solvers in here.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
We're dedicating a billion dollars towards startups that come and present to us with a board of seven people that are founders of companies that have built multi-billion dollar companies.

I'd like to know how many of this sold out. I'd like to know if it prompted the product to sell out.

You're joking. It's a meme that's been going around. Mike actually sent it to me. This tells you how connected I am to stuff like this. That sense of humor is a very interesting sense of humor, but we got to laugh out of it. Musk versus Bannon. Steve Bannon lashes out at a billionaire, says he should go back to South Africa. That fight is really getting heated.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
What's the crime if you're the person that started the fire? Arsonist. What's the crime in California? It's arson, and you are in deep, deep... But what is it, though? What is the levels of punishment?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Arson in California is a felony that can result in imprisonment, fine, and restitution. The punishment depends on the type of property burned of the crime... Imprisonment, the length of time depends on the arson, ranging from 60 months to nine years. Convicts may face up to $50,000 fine. Restitution offenders may be required to pay victims for damages. Go ahead. Go pull up.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
You need Elon Musk type of money to pay the damages. Probation convicts may be placed on probation for up to five years.

And he called, he says Steve Bannon wants to take down the evil racist Musk. Interesting. This is happening all while we're eight days away from the, what is it, inauguration, a few days away from the inauguration.

PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I got you, Rob. Google arson crime punishment by state. By state. Okay. Watch this here. Okay. Zoom in a little bit, Rob, so we can see it. There you go. So it depends by the state. Florida, it's 30 years. Good. In prison.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
While in California, it was nine years. Okay.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
It's so backwards. Rob, can you maybe type in what state has the most severe punishment for arson? has the most severe punishment for arson. Yeah, I'm just curious right now. What state is it? According to available information, California is widely considered to have one of the most severe punishments. Nine years. It's not that bad. What are they talking about? What is it? Tell us what it is.

Okay. In extreme cases, which arson is like the death penalty, has a person ever had a death penalty in California for arson?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Well, let's see this here. If somebody has anyone, ever california uh death penalty no california does not allow hang on it doesn't even have the federal court arsonist gives death sentence do you see ricky lee flower has been convicted of more murder over 2003 fire that caused five heart attack Deaths.
PBD Podcast

Farragut killed five. So this guy died. Is Ricky Lee Fowler dead?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Ricky Lee Fowler. What is that? So in terms of Ricky Lee Fowler, I want to know if this has happened. Because when something like this happens, there has to be an example made at the highest level. And when the example is made, then from there, you know, it gets some people's attention. Not everybody's attention. It gets some people's attention.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
But, yeah, look, I can't, like, again, if I'm the governor of the state, the first thing I want to do is get the smartest people in front of me. We're going to have a full-on meeting to come up with ideas on what to do with this. What money do we need? Who do we call? Who do we raise the capital from? Problem solvers are in my state. Let's get to it. Let's get to find out what happens here.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Rob, did we find out if this guy died or not?

Ask Brandon, can one of you guys check this Ricky Lee Fowler death penalty, California?

And when you watch this video, folks, he's getting up there saying, this is probably the last time you'll speak, you'll hear me speak, but I don't even want to tell you what he says. I want to get your reaction from it in the comments section. So wait till we... Play this clip for you. Mark Zuckerberg slams Apple on its lack of innovation and random rules.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Ricky Lee Fowler, the arsonist convicted for starting the 2003 oil fire in California, was sentenced to death penalty. As of January 2025, there are no public records indicating that his execution has been carried out. Given the lengthy appeals process typical in death penalty cases, it is likely that he remains on death row.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
No, they don't have the most strictest. They don't have the most strictest. This is a prime example of... You have to make an example of the people. You have to put the fear of God and the fear of death into people who do things like this. And who benefits from this fire? I'm trying to see who actually benefits from this fire.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
If you were to think about who benefits from this fire, insurance companies don't benefit from this fire. Who benefits from this fire, Tom? I'm trying to think like a dark, like if there's something behind it.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Because you know how the Chase Hughes guy that we had on the podcast who said, anytime you see a massive event that takes place, and then they come up with immediate solutions to say, this is what we have to put cameras, this is how Rico and Patriot Act and all this stuff happened. Who, in a PSYOP form, I mean, this would be the darkest PSYOP of all time, who actually benefited from this fire?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So when they say those things like you'll. Just don't repeat that stuff that people have said. But go ahead. Let's see what points you're going to make.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
You know, there's a book written, Choose Your Enemies Wisely. I know that guy. I wonder if that's the right enemy he's choosing. We'll see. In one U.S. town, residents are legally required... to own guns and ammo. Imagine you live in a city and they say, do you have a gun? No. You're getting a ticket today, buddy. You got to go buy a gun, right? That's how that city rolls.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
I don't know what you're saying.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Not disagree with. Are we on point with what we were talking about? But your point was made. It was about finance, what decisions to make, what decisions not to make.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay, TSMC fourth quarter profit sees jumping 58% and being strong. AI chip demand. And again, this has to do with Taiwan. We'll cover that. That's a Reuters story. Sono CEO. Great first name. Terrible ideas. Patrick Spence steps down after disastrous app launch, and they replace him with a new CEO. And I'm not surprised that's taking place.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Sure, I get it. I understand. But in the context of the story that we were in, specific to California, trying to find solutions, this would have been something that's a completely different side story, but I get what you're saying. Let's just move on. Okay, so going to the next story here that we have. Where's that one story I wanted to get into? The story? Okay, here we go.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So Mark Zuckerberg slams Apple on its lack of innovation and random rules. This is a clip, Rob, with him on Rogan this last week. This is after, I think, the introduction was made with them going to community notes, Dana White on the board. And then here's what he has to say about Apple. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
OK, Tom, smart move choosing Apple as an enemy.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
It's about time they're doing it, but I hope they fix some of the things we'll talk about. That American Airlines focus on ESG and 401k plan is illegal. U.S. judge rules. Thank God for that judge.

PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Mm-hmm.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
By the way, so Tom, a couple questions for you. He says, what has Apple created since the iPhone, right? What has Facebook created? They've acquired. Well, that's exactly right.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That's it. Okay. So then the other question would be, Do you think Zuck, going on the biggest podcast in the world, went in there open or he went in there with intentions of making two, three, four, five statements that he knew he was going to find a way to say while he was with Joe?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay. Everything is very intentional. Perfect. So you think what he said about Apple was intentional? Yeah. Okay. Then if it's intentional... It better follow up with an announcement, in my opinion. Meaning, that's why Facebook is announcing the dot, dot, dot, dot, dot. That's why this, this, this, this, that.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Oh, wow, Gavin. So excited. L.A. 2.0, folks, this is just reimagine what the 2.0 could look like. Post wildfires, newer properties, right? Just a strange way of selling it. He's got a Marshall plan to rebuild. It's all about a land grab. This is a story that came out from Sportskeeda. Talking about Gavin Newsom's talks about potential property deals in L.A. following the wildfires.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Because when you make a statement like that and you truly are a chess player, I'm looking forward to see the benefit of saying that. I'm looking forward to seeing if in the next two, four, six weeks he does do something that he announces, great.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
If that comment was made just because he thinks he's on the, you know, now he's got Trump's protection and Elon's protection because he gave Elon some credit with community notes. It's like, wow, now Elon's on my side. And Apple, I don't know. The reality of it is every one of these guys that has an app that relies on people to use a phone that has most of the apps that are built on.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And that phone is called the iPhone. So if Zuck announces a Facebook phone coming out, Because I think the Facebook phone, I think the phone market, remember how for the longest time they said nobody ever competed with Pepsi and Coke. Anybody that comes out with a drink, what do they do? Pepsi or Coke buys them. RC Cola, whatever, whatever, they buy them, right?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And it was 40 years until somebody was able to compete with auto manufacturers like somebody that came out with a car. Until what car came out and started competing with all the Ford, the GM, all those other guys? It was Tesla. When is the last time somebody came out with a phone that competed with phones?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Okay. Elon floated with coming up with the Tesla phone. If you type in Tesla phone, there's pictures of the Tesla phone. If you go on images, yeah, there's a real sleek right there. That's the image right there. You would see, hey, what if they come out with a Tesla phone? Can you type in Facebook phone? Type in Facebook phone.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Facebook didn't make its own phone, but it did collaborate with HTC and HTC first in 2013. Okay. First Android on the Facebook software. Yeah. And what happened to it? They sold how many? 15,000 units. Critics panned the phone, calling it one of the biggest failures of 2013. The phone ran a pure version of Android under the Facebook. Yeah. That's what I'm saying.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
That comment has to be... You can't make a comment like that to Apple without a follow-up.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Michael Cohen pleads. Please, Biden, presidential pardon. I'm somebody's son also, meaning if you give it to your son, can I get it? Maduro makes a strange call. He calls for Puerto Rican invasion to liberate Ireland from the U.S. Hamas expected to release 33 hostages in first phase of emerging deal, Israeli official says. And this is a CNN story.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
No, no. It's nothing wrong with that. You can do that. I'm just saying when you say, you know, like if let's just say I'm coming to tell you, you know, I'm better than you. I'm trying to give an analogy. I'm better than you in ladies, right? And so look at Adam. When's the last time Adam got an eight? It was Mary nine years ago.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
And then imagine you follow up and you say, bro, when's the last time you got a six? Okay? So you don't have the right to give that. The only time you say that, and if you are who I think you are, which is always intentional, he has to follow it up with here's what we're announcing. And by the way, and FYI, you know what could happen? Let me tell you what could happen.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Let me tell you what could happen. What if he does something with Dana that's on the board now that the Facebook stuff that you're talking about, pay-per-view, is now on Facebook. That's a very interesting angle. Then now that announcement could be Dana joins this, Zuck goes on Rogan, takes a shot at Apple, gives credit to Musk. Six weeks later, UFC teams up with Facebook, blah, blah, blah.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Guess what? Great job, great sequencing. I applaud you. Okay, now I get it. So that's the part where I don't know what's going to happen next, and we'll see.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So there's beef here. There's something going on here. Okay, we'll see. So next story, I'd like it to be five to ten minutes, guys. So Musk versus Bannon. We've got a few more to go through.

You're trying to kind of figure out friendships, being accepted. It's such a delicate, delicate moment where you need every single help possible to shape your kids into the right mindset, whether it's God, whether it's anything. We're having conversations with the kids earlier today. when New Year's, about the key word I talked to them about was being intentional.

And this week I talked about on last week's business plan the three words for 2025. One of them was being signal and controlling the noise. If you can learn how to live your life with the noise, you know, noise of people saying things about you. I tell my kids, let's role play. Kids in school say, well, you don't know your daddy's this. What do you say to them? I'm going to punch him in the face.

PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533

And if you've got friends, if you've got angry patriot friends like Vinny, and you go to them and say, I've got a gift for you, you give them something like this, you put a smile on their face. Again, represent the brand. We've got the shirts. We've got the hats. I'll always say this. Numbers came back. We were trying to see what the number was going to be for 2025.

Disney's 2024 Star Wars spinoff Acolyte was canceled after one season despite an estimated cost of close to a quarter of a billion dollars. Oh, my God. The series featured a transgender actor. Is this serious, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
The series featured a transgender actor as well as a coven of seemingly lesbian witches, with showrunner Leslie Hedlund calling it the gayest Star Wars ever. Following backlash, Hedlund later backtracked somewhat, but the damage was done, making another high-profile failure for Disney. Is this a joke? Really? Yeah. Was that Jake's voice?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
So, Jake, what do you know about the story here? The gayest Star Wars ever. Uh-huh. Can you pull up, Rob, the picture of it to see what this actually looked like? Not even play a clip. Zoom in a little bit so... So who's... Zoom in. Can we see this? That's the poster. So who's the transgender here?

I thought it was a shot. So let's just see. Upon graduating from Headlands, spent six years working as an assistant at Miramax. One year which she spent as Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant. So she was Harvey's personal assistant. Her experience during that time is what inspired her 2012 play The Assistant.

So she claimed she was not physically assaulted by Weinstein and did not witness any incidents. Go a little lower, Rob, to see what else she says. Keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower. She wasn't his type. Rotten Tomatoes, the series, has an average rating of 78% based on 246 critic reviews.

So if it was so good, why did it... Shut down. Go a little lower again, Rob. Okay, so now maybe, who's this Rebecca Henderson? Rebecca Henderson. Can you just click on her name right there? Let's see who she is. She's somebody that was in Hollywood as well. Canadian actress. She's known for a portrayal of Lizzie on Netflix series Russian Doll.

Okay. All right, let's get into the story here with everything that is taking place. California wildfires. Let's just go into that. The total death toll right now is 24.

Yeah, and look, again, remember earlier we talked about a person at 37 years old has the kid, thinking about buying a house, business, all that other stuff. This is your state. This is your state. This is what they want to do. The school, the education, the ideas, the policies, Disney, California, they believe this is the norm. Again, more of a reason to realize what direction things are going.

Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
FYI, bad thing about Hollywood and movies is when you make a movie and you say yes to a movie... You can't change your mind for five years. Let's think about it. So right now, Bob Iger is sitting there saying, oh, my God, I got two more years of shitty movies coming out that I got to put up with that everyone's going to be talking about me.

But I can't wait for 2027, you know, if he's even thinking that. But what a bad place to be for a guy like him that he knows there's a couple more bad movies coming out that we don't even know about. And you know what's crazy?
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Well, let's see what happens. So here we go. Again, he could have saved that money and just given it to Stephen A. I mean, he needs it. Hamas expected to release 33 hostages in first phase of emerging deal. Israeli officials say, okay, this is a CNN story. They could have added something to the title, but they did not. But it's okay. So let's go through it.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
Hamas is expected to release 33 hostages in the first phase of ceasefire deal after being finalized in Doha as confirmed by senior Israel officials. President Joe Biden described the deal as aiming to free the hostages, halt the fighting, provide security to Israel, and allow us to significantly surge humanitarian assistance to Palestinians who suffered terribly in this war that Hamas started.
PBD Podcast
Newsom Wildfire Response, Zuckerberg & Rogan, Trump Frees 33 Hamas Hostages | PBD Podcast | Ep. 533
They have been through hell. Negotiations involved a 42-day ceasefire and stipulate that hostages released may include both living individuals and the bodies of those deceased. With ongoing logistical talks in Doha, key figures and developments in negotiations include Mossad Director David Barnea to a senior Israel official who stated there is a talk of engagement agreement in the near future.

And I'm like, what are you saying, Vinny? In about 10 seconds into it, you're going to say, why did you say that? You didn't have to say that. What's your point of saying that?

Okay, let's see what he has to say.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Okay, so first of all, I just want to make sure when video is playing, don't comment. Okay, so just keep that part of mind. So you know what I like about what he just said right there, that he's right about. And then Adam, I'm coming to you. So you know what's the biggest thing with negotiation? Whenever you're negotiating, what Lutnik said, I actually don't like.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And I'll say, if I'm Trump, I would say, what are you doing? Why are you saying that? Because he's saying that it's a tactic that they're eventually going to come to us. So what that means in negotiation is that you're eventually going to what? Give in, right? Okay, so who wins in negotiation? Who wins in a negotiation? In a negotiation, leverage matters. What else matters?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
China, Mexico. China put a 100% tariff on certain products on Canada, which is kind of weird. Tom's got some thoughts on that. And then Commerce Secretary Lutnick emphatically shoots down recession concerns. There's a lot of people talking about potential recessions, especially yesterday after Dow lost, was it 900 points in a daytime? Was it Dow?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Whoever is willing to walk away from the deal. What else matters? Whoever has the most patience. If you read the book, Art of the Deal, there were certain deals that he waited God knows how long where he was patient until he got paid premium as a negotiator. So I love the fact that he says, look, when you're trying to make a transition the way we are, We're going to go through something.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Some things are going to be nasty. If you're trying to truly put reciprocal tariffs on people that are putting 25, 50, 70, 100% on us, we got to go through the pain for you to lower the prices. That's going to be painful. I do think the market could take a hit as you're going through that process. Until they give in. How long that takes, I don't know.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
But I don't think he's off with what he's saying.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
A lot, right? So that's his timeline. I wrote here, you can only be as patient as the midterms. He knows what he's playing with. By the way, if you look at numbers with job cuts, US job cuts surged 245% in February on federal government layoffs. Rob, if you got a clip on that one here, 245%.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So if job cuts are up 245%, a Challenger Gary Christmas report revealed planned job cuts surged 245% in February to 172,000 jobs last month. That's the highest level since July of 2020. You know what happened July of 2020? COVID. That's July of 2020 when the economy was reeling from restrictions related to COVID pandemic and the highest total for February since grade recession of 09%.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
We're talking since Great Recession, that's 16 years, with federal government layoffs under President Trump's administration driving the surge, including 62,000 announced job cuts across seven federal agencies. As Andrew Challenger noted, the government has laid off roughly 62,000 workers in the first two months. A 41,311% increase compared to a year ago. Let me say that one more time.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
A 41,311% increase compared to a year ago, which means last year, only three people got laid off, if you really think about how that number works. Whatever the number, it's a small number.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And apparently Tesla, there's a story of Tesla losing. Is that the accurate number, $700 billion evaluation, or is that just from the market? That's cumulative. Yeah.

If people are not making money, if the prices are high, if the people are losing money, very, very quickly people will be sounding alarm on that. And if we tap into the recession, in order to make that drastic of a change that they want to make, to the way we do things, a risk of a recession should be on the table. It's just the reality of it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
If you're trying to make that drastic of a shift, the risk is recession.

PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Thank you. So I have a feeling the definition is going to come back this time around. So just kind of be ready. Conveniently. When this goes back, they're going to be like, no, no, no. Under Biden, it wasn't a recession, but under Trump it is. So they're going to be playing that game back and forth. Of course. All I'm saying is it's...

It could potentially be a good time to buy, but as a person who has one term left and is dealing with midterms, if the way Trump answered it to say he's okay with a possibility of a recession, that's the right approach to scare the shit out of your competitors, other countries, to say he's okay if he goes through a recession. He's not worried about how it's going to look on him. No, he was like,
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Yeah, I don't want to put define, predict, and all this stuff. If it happens, it could happen with me. We're making such a drastic change in our way of doing things. That could possibly take place. Things will get worse before they get better. I'm totally okay with that. I'm totally okay with that. But it's not going to be okay to the average person.

She sees... that, hey, guess what? We can go to dinner with another businessman And I think we can get away with them paying for the entire dinner and we not have to pay anything for it.

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
What do you mean you're going to be able to avoid not having to pay reciprocal tariffs to it? So here, let me read this to you. Mexican President Scheinbaum expressed confidence at Mexico City's rally on Sunday that Trump won't impose reciprocal tariffs on Mexico starting April 2nd.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
stating, Mexico is not within the scope because for 30 years we have had two trade agreements establishing that we don't have any tariffs on them and they don't have any tariffs on us.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
She clarified, in other words, they wouldn't have to apply reciprocal tariffs because there are particularly no levies from Mexico on U.S., distinguishing these from Trump's separate 25% tariffs to migration and drugs. paused until April 2nd. Scheinbaum turned the rally originally set to counter U.S.

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559

Yeah, most people cannot handle what they can handle, the amount of pain Trump can handle. I will tell you this. If I'm Trump, and if anybody from Trump's camp watches this, you guys like charts. Let me give you one of the best charts to show for. Go pull up military expenditure on Mexico and Canada versus ours.

Okay, so we are officially live, episode 559. Gang, this is a new set. We got an upgrade. We're at this new set we got here at this house somewhere off-site.

His room is behind this wall right here, okay?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
We spend 3.4% of our taxpayers' money on military to provide safety of where we are, right? And who's our neighbors? Mexico and Canada. Great. Canada spends 1.1. Mexico spends 0.7. 0.7 is 2.7 less than we do on our military expenditure. That 2.7 should be paid as a form of a tariff to U.S. We're providing protection for you. Why don't you go spend that money out of the money that you make?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You ought to do that. Why should I pay for protection knowing nobody wants to mess with Mexico because you're my neighbor? I'm not okay with that. I think there's so many ways they can work this Mexico and Canada relationship, but I think that chart needs to be given to them for them to see it. Okay, next story to get into is Trump sends a letter to Iran

While that's being said, here's a story from The Hill. Iranian leader rejects Trump's push for nuclear talk. Ayatollah Khamenei rebuffed Trump's call for nuclear talks, stating on Saturday, some coercive governments insist on negotiations such as such negotiations aren't aimed at solving issues. They aim to exert their dominance and impose what they want.

And right after he gets his hundred million dollar contract, gets into a fight with LeBron James. LeBron James walks up to him in the middle of the game. There's a bunch of exchange. I got my thoughts. I know Vinny does as well. We'll cover that. Um, Disturbing. Anna Paulina calls that DOJ silence, urging Bondi to release the Epstein files. Why don't we not know about the Epstein files?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He argued that talks are a tool to impose new demands, adding Iran will definitely not fulfill negotiations these new demands, especially on defense and military limits. And obviously that's a... We'll see how that's going to be reacting towards it. But Vinny, I think you want to say something.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Yeah, I mean, one of the things is yesterday, Chris texted me saying, hey, Tucker and I did a podcast together. And they're on the podcast. One of the topics that comes up is why the JFK files hasn't been released. And Chris asks Tucker the question, like, who is holding this up? And Tucker doesn't want to drop the name. And he finally drops the name. Rob, if you can play this clip.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And this has to do for the community of people that want to know what's going on with Epstein, that want to know what's going on with JFK. All those promises. That's this clip. Go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
A lot of people are not happy about that. Biden uses auto pen signature on many official White House documents. You know what that is? It's like you don't sign it. It's auto pen like, you know, like a stamp, like somebody else can sign on behalf of you while you're golfing or while you're in Delaware at the beach. getting some sun. Anyways, that's pretty concerning.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Some people are worried about it. There's a video of Biden hugging Melania and a hand goes slightly lower. She gets uncomfortable, moves a step towards Trump. Trump hugs her, asks her what just happened, then whispers something to Biden. Then everybody comes in. If you haven't seen this, it's a spectacle. Jasmine Crockett insists it's not a crime to illegally cross the border. Brilliant.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, let me just take a complete different angle here. That's... What's Tucker's background? Who was Tucker's father?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Tucker's father has a very interesting background. He was involved. Whether it's CIA or whatever he did, he was involved. Is that confirmed? You can search a little bit in. That's American Journalism Lobbyist, Voice of America from 66 to 91. Can you control FCIA? Can you control FCIA to see anything comes up? No, not Patricia. Patricia CIA. His name was Dick Carlson?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Yeah. So, you know, Voice of America at the time was also known as a, you know, the CIA had a lot of different methods of getting information. Anyways, if there is a way, because right now, is Tucker good with Trump?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Okay. If Tucker has to choose between Massey and Trump, who does he choose? If he's smart, he picks Trump. If Tucker has to choose between supporting AIPAC that comes with Trump, and if you don't support AIPAC, that you lose Trump, what does he choose?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
That wasn't the question I asked.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
It was actually a very good interview that he had Massey on.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So here's all I'm doing. Here's all I'm saying with regards to Tucker. Does Trump's administration right now need someone to blame for the way they handle JFK files and Epstein and all that stuff? Is Tom Cotton good with Trump?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Everything we've ever spoken about with Tom Cotton has been positive. Positive. Has been good. Falling out everybody. Okay. Yeah. So I don't know. I don't know if there is something here where the possibility of needing an out with somebody... I don't know. I'm just saying, like, if you needed somebody... to say, hey, we have to figure out a way to put this on someone.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
We have fumbled, you know, we have kind of mishandled the way we promised that we're going to release and there's an intent. We had no idea this many people were interested in JFK files. We had no idea this many people were interested in what's going on with Epstein, oh my God, we thought it was just something you would say from stage and then people would forget about it after election.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Holy shit. No, there's really a big community of people that really want this. I don't know. That's one. And that me seeing that they use Cotton as a person to blame, I'm at 10 to 15% there. But it's an option. But it's an option, right? And the other option is,
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Could it have been something where the conversation is, say you and I talk, we're about to hire somebody, and you don't like that person, and you say, I don't like that person, and all of a sudden Adam's in the room, Adam tells someone, someone tells another competitor, and they say, let me tell you. The reason why that person didn't end up getting a job at Valley Team was because of Vinny.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And it was like, what are you talking about? Could it have been that kind of a misunderstanding that it was leaked to Tucker? It could have been. Because when Chris says, how come you haven't asked him? You know, Tucker was kind of like, well, I don't know, maybe out of talk. And Cotton's coming out talking about it. I don't know. There's many things, many angles here with this one.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Do you think for RFK Jr., Do you think for RFK Jr., is it important that that information of what happened to his father and his uncle be public? Or do you think he would be happy that if just he knew about it and the world never found out?

PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Do you think somebody from Trump's camp could sell RFK for saying, you'll be the one to know the truth, we'll show it to you, but you can't ever tell anybody? Probably. You think he'd be okay with that? Or you think he would want the world to know what happened?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
No, what I'm saying is, do you think to him it's important that only he finds out? for his own reasoning to be resolved, or do you think he wants the world to find out? I think he wants the world to find out. Okay, so if he wants the world to find out, then I think the Kennedy stuff's going to come out because he's got a heavy-duty job position. So that has to come out.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
The Epstein stuff, I don't know if the Epstein stuff's going to come out the way you're thinking it's going to.

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Who they had as their guest on International Women's Day. Tucker Carlson. calls out one of the senators on a conversation with Cuomo that's holding back many of the releases of the JFK files, which is kind of weird. And then there was a cyber attack on X. You know, a bunch of other stories we got here that we may go through. All right, before we get into it, guys.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let me say this to you. So, Rob, you have the Anna Paulina clip. Her calling it disturbing. Calls out the DOJ silence. Urges Bondi to release the full Epstein files. This is Anna Paulina Luna calling out the DOJ silence on Epstein. Go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Good for her, by the way, and check this out. Okay, the story continues in different places.

People are asking on social, we still haven't gotten the Epstein files. Where are the files, JFK, MLK?
PBD Podcast

So when you think about this, this is where I'm going with this. Where I'm going with this is if I am Trump's camp, And if we ever ran the White House, and if we were ever presidents, you know what division of ours would be the biggest one?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
We would have a team of 50 business analysts, data analysts. I mean, we would be, look, our biggest budget, I would pay myself to have a lot of data analysts, right? And I would ask myself, how many people are like Vinny? Tom, what percentage of people do you think exactly what I figured it was? Look at that. It's only 10% of people that are like you, Vinny. That's the part. It's only 10%.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Look at that. Look at border, woke, economy. 28% is the economy, 29% is the woke, and border is 33, okay? So when you look at some, that's how many voters? 2,300 voters? Okay, and that's our audience that we're talking about. So that's qualified audience that were polling this because they wanted this, right? So you're looking at where the numbers are at, where people are at.

Okay, so if that's the case, And no one has ever been able to become president and hit 100% of all the issues. If they fumble this one, they're like, well, we missed this one. We didn't hit it. They're going to lose a guy like you, okay, when that happens. But they got to see what's more important to them today. Can you go back to the one that you had, Rob, by the way?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Can you go back to the poll that you just had? Oh. I just ended the poll, but I did.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Okay, so let's score each one of them so far in the first, how long? So January 20th, February 20th, it's November 10th, March 10th. Let's just say we're at 40, 50, however many days we got, right? How would you score the JFK Epstein files being dropped? Zero to 10. I think it's zero.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
But they said on day one.
PBD Podcast

PBD Podcast

I agree. It's a nine out of ten. But that was his number one priority. Sure. How do you score to a woke? The craziness. Oh, that's also being dismantled. That's the point. Yes. So what we're saying is you can't – like a guy has 32 points, nine rebounds, one assist, four turnovers, and all we're talking about – And no blocks. All we're talking about is this guy had no blocks and no steals.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He had no assists. He had no assists. Which, by the way – To a defensive coach, guess what's the most important? You guys, you didn't play defense. You had no blocks, you had no steals, none of this stuff, right? So in my eyes, they're like, well, listen, maybe we can't... Don't get me wrong. For a guy like me, I want to know exactly what happened with Epstein.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I want to know exactly what happened with that list. I want to know exactly what happened with John F. Kennedy, MLK. I want to know exactly what happened there. But for whatever reason, Vinny, every time somebody that becomes a president claims they're going to release that, every single time, I want to know who is that person like you said earlier. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
What does that meeting look like for them to be able to say, let me role play one for you and tell me if this makes sense. Go ahead. Okay. Who am I going to be? You're the president. Okay. I'm that guy that nobody knows about.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
President Trump, I think it's time for that meeting. Okay. You know, there are things that happen behind closed doors to run the biggest country in the world that people can never know about. If they did, it would disrupt the entire nation. Do you understand that? I think I do. Okay.

There are certain things that we've done in the history of our country for us to deal with evil in ways that we have to hold them accountable. You know what is one of the ways? Bribery. We have intel on certain people that if we leak that to the public, if we leak that to the public, we lose that leverage that we have with them. And we can't. And some of them are your allies.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let me tell you who we have here. Here. Boom, boom, boom, boom. I know some of those people. These are your guys. If you release it all, we have to release all of this to the public. Some of those guys are your friends. What do you want to do?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So how about we set this aside as an issue for now? And we have a method on how to release it so you don't lose credibility. But let's move on from this topic. Here's what we're going to be doing. You're going to hear a guy say this. You're going to hear a guy say that. You want to be able to say something like this, and then we're moving on. Make sense?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
A meeting like that takes place to say, you have a job that's very complex and complicated. We're not going to talk about this stuff because we have leverage over certain people. You don't think America has worked with other agencies, Mossad, MI6. For me to believe that Mossad is innocent and CIA is innocent and MI6 is innocent, the stuff that these guys have on people, they work day and night.

You think J. Edgar Hoover's documentary on why he never dropped anything on the mob? The mob doesn't exist. There is no such thing as the mafia. There is no such thing as organized crime. Oh, really?

What I want you to do, folks, if you watch this, it's very simple. If you're married, specifically if you're married, to the people that are married, are you okay with this? Is this appropriate? Is this inappropriate? Watch the clip. Go for it, Rob.

S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
No, he's combining what's going on in Syria with what's going on with the camp that's saying free Palestine. He's combining those two together because they are related. Yes. Rob, what is this clip you're showing? They're terrorist sympathizers.

Trump's trying to see what he's saying to her.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I don't want to shoot another one. Let me give it to you from my angle on what's going on. So if I see the number, it's lowered what? By six points? Was it five points or six points that it's lowered by? Five points. Let's say five points it's lowered by. Okay. How much of that is people who are sick and tired of just giving money out to anybody, period? How much of that is the...
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
apac community that they're being critical of apac and how many congressmen and senators they own how much of that is the recent you know virality effect on social of people saying things about how much control and power uh what do you call it massad has and israel has how much of that is the messaging being said about the level of bribery that they have to hold people hostage and there's a reason why epstein how much of that is that i would say what a lot
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So while this is happening, he comes up to see what's going on. She moves closer to him. And then he asks him a question. And then Emhoff.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think a lot of it is that. Okay. The poll here, our audience, 5,200 people voted, right? 5,265 voted. 5,300 people voted, okay? Do you have more sympathy for Israelis or Palestinians? 61% Israelis, 39% Palestinians. And then the comment section is, God forbid... If you defend Israelis, you're a Zionist, you're this. They're calling Tom Israel first. He's this, he's that. It's okay.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So that's the part where people nowadays are afraid of having labels on them. You're a bigot. You're a racist. You're a, what do you call it?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You're this, you're that. By the way, that actually had a lot of power on a lot of people for a long time. Doesn't carry the same weight anymore today, but I'm going to give you the flip side of it. You know what's by far the best case study? Here's by far the best case study. Tate is here last week, okay? Do you know how many people message me? Screw you saying stuff about Pierre Polivier.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You don't even, he should never go on your podcast because of pa-pa-pa-pa-pa, you know what he call it, with Tate. I cannot believe you have Tate on. How did you platform that guy? My challenge with Pierre is the fact that he reminded me of DeSantis and Nikki Haley, just elitists that think they're too good to go out there and talk to anybody, and I've never liked that vibe. Good for DeSantis.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He finally showed up. We had a great conversation together and got a lot of eyeballs. Nikki Haley never showed up. At least DeSantis showed up, and he sat down. We had a conversation, too. But his team was very much arrogant, like they're already a president. I don't like that vibe. I've never liked that vibe since I was a kid. But watch this. What's-his-name comes here on the podcast, Andrew Tate.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And I ask him about what's going on with Israel, UK, Muslim, Islam, everything, okay? Because he made some comments about Muslims on what's going on in UK. If you're not going to live the way UK lives, get the hell out. Who's he talking to? Muslims. Muslims. Do you know how many people reacted on the podcast that we had?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
How many Muslim podcasts reacted to what Tate said about Jews and Muslims and criticizing him for giving a reasonable answer? A lot of them. What was his answer? What did he say? Do you remember what he said?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So the point there is... that in the Middle East, Israel has negotiated better. Israel has better terms. Israel has a better community of people that are getting them to pass policies that favor Israel. You're naive if you don't believe that's what's taking place. Of course that is what's taking place with the level of negotiation they have. Guess what they do?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
What's going on? You can tell Biden's a little bit concerned. Trump's aggressive. Not aggressive in his face. Rob, show the other clip because this clip doesn't do it justice. There's another clip from the back. That's it. That's the one. Can you make that bigger? Go for it. Look at the hands, folks.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
They invest more money in education and their kids. They invest more money into getting their guys to be brought into their country. They get their people to go back to Israel. They'll pay for the school. They'll travel you back because they want to do what? They want to ingrain that culture in you so you love who you are. By the way, I wish Assyrians did that. I wish Armenians did that.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I wish everybody did that. But no, they're upset that those guys are doing that. And for me, when I see something like this, all I think about is this. Who makes communities better? Who makes communities better? You can say whatever you want. Who makes communities better? Jewish people. No, did Jewish people ruin UK? Nope. Did Armenians ruin UK? Nope. Did blacks ruin UK? Nope. Who was it?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
What is it? What's the most common name right now in UK? Mohammed. It is Mohammed. Why is stabbing so high? Why has the culture changed so much? Who did that? Jews did that? Why is Poland training their people the way they are? Because they know what happens when you culturally try to change somebody. And I'm sorry, you can be uncomfortable talking about this. Stats. You hate stats?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
That's the stats. You want to talk about who Planned Parenthood destroyed the most? You ever seen the interview with Sanger on what she says about... Margaret Sanger? Yeah, you ever seen what she says about abortion and blacks and how she... Tom hates it. Have you ever actually seen her in an interview on what she says?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Rob, if you have this clip with her... If you have it, watch her eyes, everyone. Watch her eyes. Is this the interview?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think this is the clip. Watch this interview. Go for it. Eyes are the window of the soul.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So statistically, what community gets the most abortions in America? The black community. So you think she was for blacks?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
She's an exterminator. You can sit there and statistically look at things and get to an argument. and say, you know what, I'm sorry, you can say whatever you want. This is not favoring your argument, period. So to me, I understand whatever's happening. I think people are just burned out with helping out Ukraine. They're just burned out with helping out. They're just burned out.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Israel, they're just burned out with so many of it. They're just like, listen, can we just move on? I think a big portion of the people that were voting, I will say a bigger portion of Democrats and independents that voted for Trump, they actually didn't want war. They wanted peace. Those guys, top three, I'm willing to bet if we asked them who voted for Trump, they wanted security.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
They wanted these things to be done. They were afraid of World War III. What's this clip you got here from the Shah, by the way?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, I mean, listen, for what it's worth, if you spend some time watching clips of the Shah, I've watched anything and everything I can find over the years, you will realize how safe the Middle East was when he was running. They got along with everybody.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
An autocrat? Or jihadists. All right, let's go to the next clip. Let's go to the next clip. Let's go to the next clip. All right, so Whoopi Goldberg and The View. So this is the International Women's Day. On International Women's Day, do you know who The View has as a guest? You ready? Let me guess. Dylan Mulvaney for International Women's Day. And they wonder why they keep losing Democrats.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
They wonder why they keep losing Democrats, but you have to hear what Whoopi said here. I just want to get your thoughts. I asked everybody, guys, how did you take this thing here when you watch it yourself? And Rob was giving me his perspective. I want to know what you think about it. Rob, go ahead and play this clip.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Whoopi's perspective. What is Whoopi saying? Do you have opinions on what Whoopi said?

PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And that's a guy. That's a dude. Is there an interview afterwards? That's just wrong. Is there audio, Rob? We can hear that? That's the interview. Let's hear the interview, what he says.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let me ask you a question. That person, she's in high school.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Well, he's in high school. How much of him behaving that way is his parents, how much of it is him?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
What percentage you put on the parents?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Tom, what percentage you put on the parents?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let me do this. Let me do this while we're moving off from this. Rob, can you pull up the Bernie Sanders concert clip and who he brings up? Okay.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
this this is this is why you're losing people this is why the democrat did you hear what van jones said yesterday we'll go to the van jones clip afterwards but if you can find that clip vinny do you have the concert you texted to uh uh yeah rob did i there is one specific one with the key word it was yeah it was a trans i actually wrote this down let me write it down so uh bernie sanders had a transgender singer laura that's it that's the one race
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Okay, why don't you do it? And let's just, don't put the audio. Let's just see the hand interpreter. I've seen this. Just turn off the audio, Rob, if you could. Go forward.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Can you find that clip, Rob? Can you find that clip?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559

PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
By the way, by the way. Van Jones, if you can find Van Jones, he says, we're in deep issue with the Democratic Party. Guess what? This is why you're getting your ass handed to you. Because you think just because Democrats, all of them, or Democrats, they're 100% supporting this. They're not. I'm willing to bet two-thirds of Democrats are sitting there saying,
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So, yes, well, you can pause it at that point. I mean, that's the part when you're watching this kind of stuff where Van Jones is cornered to the point that he has to say, hey, guys, this strategy kind of sucks. You're judging everybody, and yet you want them to join you? And then you want to have a performance of a guy mocking God? And then you want to have a woman on International Day.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You want to put a guy there, Dylan Mulvaney. You couldn't have chosen a better lady to put on there than a Dylan Mulvaney. That's a spitting in woman's face. You're pushing. Keep doing. Republicans ought to sit there and say, please keep doing that. Keep doing that. Bill Maher is sitting there saying, Bill Maher is so close to being a Republican, but he just cannot do it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He knows if he does it, he will never be invited to those parties ever again.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
It makes no sense. Let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story. Let's go to the next story. Stephen A. Smith ends up getting his $100 million contract from ESPN. Well-deserved. I think he's still underpaid, but congratulations to him. He makes more money than a lot of NBA players. Matter of fact, I think there was a chart showing that the guy makes more money than most NBA players.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
However... I mean, he didn't even have a chance to celebrate his contract. Gets a $100 million contract. Then all of a sudden, he's at a game watching the Lakers play. Rob, if you have that clip of him watching the Lakers play where LeBron walks up on him, watch this clip here, guys. Watch this. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Okay, so Rob, do you have the words on what was said? Because there's clips. Is this him explaining what happened? Yes. Okay, play this clip here. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Rob, go find a clip of him saying what he said.

PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
No, no, there's one that he's reacting. Okay, while Rob's finding that, go ahead, Vinny, your thoughts on this.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I found it. I found it. I found that it's a minute. Is this a minute clip, Rob? Go for it, Rob. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He's played 44 minutes in the NBA, has scored four points, has won 4-16, 0-4-7 from three.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He's averaging 0.4 points a game, and he's won 4-16. So, Tom, your thoughts?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
let me ask you this question do you think trump do you think she said something to him that got trump to say something to yes i think i think she was like so he's creeping me out so do you think kamala and the other people that walked up why do you think the other people walked up because look at jill jill runs in look at that did you see that jill's like wait what question
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Yeah, okay. So let me give my final thoughts, and I'm going to go past this and just kind of simplify it. By the way, I think there was another take that Stephen A. did to say that it came up, and it's really about – LeBron, it's not about his son. It's really about you. It's not about your son. It's about you. And I agree with him. This is about LeBron. It's not about his son.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
LeBron wants a certain kind of immunity that maybe other players haven't had. And guys are getting called out for coming in and how they're playing. He was able to get certain favors to get his son to play. Now, I'm very comfortable with what Stephen A has said to him, calling him out. Double down on it. LeBron James will go down as the greatest flopper of all time.
PBD Podcast

He will go down as... There's so many different arguments being made right now with this guy here. To me, he destroyed the league. He destroyed viewership. He lost half the clients, half the fans that were watching him. Last two All-Stars, the one he played in was the least viewed All-Star, God knows since pre-MJ getting into the NBA, the least viewed All-Star.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
It's dropped over 50% since he entered the league in 2003. This is a guy that is such the most drama queen ever. you know, a superstar in the history of any sports we've ever had, and now he wants to pass that along with Stephen A. Good for Stephen A for doubling down. I'm actually very comfortable with it. Okay, can somebody go check to see what that is?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He's the biggest crybaby of all superstars of all time.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Statistically. And I've said that myself. Yeah, that's fine. And I'm comfortable saying that, but he is not at the level of... He ain't MJ. Not even close to it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Not even close to it. It's just not going to take place. It's just not going to take place. Okay, so let's go through a couple things here. Watch this one here. So... Bill Maher is saying stuff about Jasmine Crockett. But before I go to the Bill Maher clip, Rob, can you go to the Jasmine Crockett clip of her saying it is not a crime to cross the border illegally?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Watch this and then go to the Bill Maher clip. Go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You can go to Bill Maher's Clip Rob. Watch this, folks. Who is she? She is somebody that's become a star in the Democratic Party. Go ahead, Rob. Watch this clip.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559

PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I would say 70%. I was going to say 80%. Yeah, of course. I put 70%. Because Adam, look right here. And then because she walks, and he's like, what happened? Yeah, watch Jill. And then he's saying something. And you know he would say something. Jill runs in there. And then what is Kamala doing coming in? What are the other people coming in?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Who's the girl on the right? Is that The View?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So she's The Conservative on The View? She's supposed to be The Conservative. And she's hating on Trump? Jasmine Crockett, you see something like this, what do you think about? Vinny?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I'm making no... That's too much of a... That's too much of a... Touch. That's too long. By the way, this fits his legacy of Creepy Joe. Thank you. Great. And it's a little creepy on the way you do it and step off making a comment. By the way, you know who is watching that? Do you know who is watching that? Barron? A guy named Barron Trump. Oh, you're damn right.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let's go through two more stories and we'll wrap up. Okay, one of the stories I want to go through is Canada. Canada, Mark Carney wins race to replace Trudeau as Canada's prime minister. Rob, if you want to play this clip, this is the same guy that's a former Bank of England guy, governor and World Economic Forum guy. Rob, if you can play a couple of these clips.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
on how he says, the one clip that he says, I wish I could stand up here and talk about your accomplishments, but I don't have that much time. You know which one I'm talking about? He's giving Trudeau the clip.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Play that clip. Play that clip.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Wow. What a great... We cannot let him succeed. We cannot let him succeed. What other clips you got of this guy, Rob? Is this the one that he's thanking Trudeau?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let's see what this one is, Rob. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
And a guy named... By the way, the way... The way a son is protective of a mother is very different than the way a husband is protective of his wife. It's a very different energy. By the way, I would even say crazier energy. If somebody messes with your mother, it's a very different energy than somebody... I don't know why I can't describe it to you. It's very different.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Rob, can you do me a favor? If you can play the clip of Trudeau crying and getting emotional. If you got that clip. If you can go to that.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
and long into the future. You can pause it right there, Rob. This is great because we can only take so much of this. Tom, your thoughts on this with the new president, new prime minister?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
on the approach you will come in from. So as much as she, you know, you got to worry about a 6'9", 18-year-old kid that's sitting there saying, what the hell is going on here? Anyways, let's go to the next story.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Let me just give my thoughts to the people who were not happy with what I said about Pierre Polivier on how much of an elitist he gives me the vibes he is, and he's not going on other podcasts. And a lot of people responded back, who the hell do you guys think you are? You're Americans, you're this. A lot of people supported the fact that you're right, he's not.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
He's a World Economic Forum guy, and he's an apologist to Ukraine, recent support of Ukraine, what he's got. And then some are bringing up Max and, you know, Max, you know, he is the conservative guy. He's the guy that some of the guys are excited about, but I don't think he can win. That's what a lot of people are saying. Here's what I'll tell you.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
The common thread was that politicians in Canada are afraid to talk to Americans because they're worried that the liberals will use them as a, hey, look at this guy. They're another person that's owned by Americans and they're another person that's owned by this. If you're afraid to have those conversations, it just means you're not fit for the job. It means you're afraid. You're concerned.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You're worried. God forbid. You're playing politics. Wear this color tie. You know how you watch these movies. What was that one movie with Zach Galifianakis with the other guy that they're running for president with Will Ferrell? Wear this tie. Wear jeans because if you wear jeans and roll up your sleeves, it looks like you're a presidential and you relate to people and wear this and wear that.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Be quiet. Who are you? What are you running for? Go run on that. Go run on that. If you're so worried about what the left is going to say about you, you're already not qualified enough to be the president. What are you going to do when Russia is going to say about you, China is going to say about you, other people are going to say about you?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
If you're a leader, go sit down with as many people as possible. So the race is October 20th. I am so curious on how much offense... Pierre is going to play between now and then, and I hope all the people that are supporters of him, if you want him to win, keep asking him on X every single day. What podcast are you going on next? What show are you going on next? Who are you talking to the people?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think they chose Sleepy. But he likes both of them. But he likes both of them. Okay, let's go into the economy real quick. All right, so a couple of things going on with the economy here. So number one... The market tanks 900 points yesterday, okay? And there's a story here about Wall Street Journal. The market finally woke up to tariff reality. Is this a buying opportunity on page 15?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Hold them accountable the same way we held people accountable on our side in America to get who we wanted. You as a voter got to do the same as well. It'd be interesting to see what Max is going to be doing. This would be an edge for Max.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
If Max decided to go on a tour and sit down with a bunch of different people, America, Canada, no matter where you are, just to talk and tell the story, Max plays that card of going to people and he doesn't. That would be his campaign. I'm not afraid to talk to anybody you're afraid. Last one I'm going to wrap up with before we move on is Thomas Massey and Trump.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Rob, what is going on there with Thomas Massey and Trump? So there is a tweet that comes out from the president this morning. Axios reports that Trump vows to lead charge to unseat GOP Representative Thomas Massey. Thomas Massey responds back. Rob, if you have the clip on right there, OK, zoom in a little bit.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Thank you to the House Freedom Caucus for just delivering a big blow to the radical left Democrats and their desire to raise taxes and shut down our country. They hate America and all it stands for. That's why they allowed millions of criminals to invade our nation. Sometimes it takes great courage to do the right thing. Congressman Thomas Massey of beautiful Kentucky.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
is an automatic no vote on just about everything, despite the fact that he has always voted for continuing resolutions in the past. He should be primaried, and I will lead the charge against him. He's just another grandstander who's too much trouble and not worth the fight. He reminds me of Liz Cheney before her historic record-breaking fall loss. The people of Kentucky won't stand for it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Just watch. Do I have any takers? Anyway, thank you again for the House Freedom Caucus for your very important vote. We need to buy some time in order to make America great again, greater than ever before, unite and win. Rob, can you go to Thomas Massey's Twitter again? Twitter, because I think he did respond back to that. His message is, just type in here if you can go to it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
It is a recent tweet responding back to it. Go a little bit lower. Zoom in to see if you see it. It's on one of the accounts. You know nowadays everybody's got like 10 accounts. Someone thinks they can control my voting card by threatening my re-election. Guess what? It doesn't work with me. Three times I've been challenger.

By the way, those of you that are on PBD Podcast Circle, the notes we're looking at, we left the notes in The PBD Podcast Circle, you can go to and go to page 15. So markets are finally waking up to the tariff reality. Is this a buying opportunity?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I respect that a lot. Rob, if you can pull up this clip. This is the clip. This is what's said by Massey. Because to him, it's like, hey, I want that money that we're saving with Doge to go towards savings, not go towards... Wasteful spending. Yeah, if you can pull this up, Rob. I'm stepping on things up. I don't break anything. Okay, it's fine. Zoom in a little bit on this if you could.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I'm not voting for the continuing resolution budget. Cut, copy, paste omnibus this week.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Why would I vote to continue to waste fraud and abuse Doge has found? Great question. We were told the CR in December would get us to March when we would fight. Here we are in March punting again. Wow. I got it. So that's kind of the challenge. But then Trump, he needs his vote. Of course. He needs his vote for this to be taking place. Adam, your thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
After President Trump was elected, investors got very excited about all the nice things he promised and forgot about the stuff that would be bad for stocks. Now they are very anxious about all the stuff that is bad for stocks and have forgotten about the nice things. Has the sell-off gone too far? I took the advice.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I think there's a best way to describe Thomas Massie, for people to understand who he is. Thomas Massey is to Trump what Joe Manchin was to Biden. That's what Thomas Massey is. So just think, Thomas Massey is Joe Manchin. That's what Thomas Massey is. Now, he's not a Democrat. Far from it.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
So it's not like Joe Manchin was a, on the economy, he agreed with a lot of stuff maybe conservatives talk about. But Thomas Massey, if you go and look at the comments on Trump's clip, Rob, of what Trump said about Thomas Massey, you go to the comments section below and you read what people said. They're kind of on Massey's side. A lot of them.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I'm just telling you, a lot of them are on Massey's side.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
I took the other side, concerned that the threat of tariffs and immigration clamped down. from frothy markets when investors were on tax cuts delegation. I have trouble turning bullish for the long run because I fear the new world order Trump is ushering in won't end well for investors. But in the short term, this feels like a very rapid sell-off.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
when it comes down to this issue is the fact that Massey kind of campaigned for DeSantis. Okay? Oh, really? Massey's more DeSantis than he is Trump because DeSantis is more conservative than Trump. So this is the part that, you know, who is more conservative than me? Who is more MAGA than me? Who is more America first than me? Massey's a standalone. He stands on his own. And sometimes he loses.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Sometimes he wins. But the reality is his people are loyal to him. And this is where Trump's got to find a way to work with him. And Massey's got to find a way to work with him if they choose to. But if he doesn't, the concept of a primary in him, in order for Trump's primary to carry more weight, he needs to win. The more he's winning, the more he'll be able to do that.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
You also need a good candidate sometimes just because you can primary somebody. Massey's not a weak person that you can primary against.

We will see. Anyways. All right, gang. By the way, once again, download the Manect app. Join the circle. We have so many things we talk about there that we don't talk about anywhere.

that at least undoes much of the concerns about excess in markets. So by the way, if you look at crypto, crypto took a hit. Bitcoin took a hit.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Ethereum went to 1878. XRP is at 209. So that kind of took a hit. Tom, market, when you're seeing this, how much of it is this, the tariffs? What are you seeing are the concerns, especially with this other story here, Tesla stock nosedives, wiping out $700 billion in gains since Trump's election. Tesla stock tumbled, with shares dropping 4.6%, a partial rebound.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
Trump is not happy with Thomas Massey for not approving it. Thomas Massey responds back with a tweet. There's a ton of people supporting Massey, and there's a ton of people that are saying Massey's getting in the way. We'll give our thoughts on that, on what's going on there. Representative Al Green blames discrimination for being censored after disrupting the Trump speech.
PBD Podcast
S&P 500 Dives As Trump Hints At Recession | PBD Podcast | Ep. 559
The Trump bump faded as stocks fell 28% in a month. and 32% since January 1st. Adam Serhan, founder of 50 Park Investments, told Bloomberg the bet on Tesla's shares soaring due to Musk's political involvement has not worked out thus far. Investors who initially anticipated massive benefits from Musk's political involvement got too excited, and now cooler heads are prevailing.

Then bingo. By the way, I love the team of rivals concept, the whole Lincoln book, phenomenal. So for me, what you just said validates this. Ask the question, is Trump a guy? that thinks 5, 10, 15 steps ahead than the other guy. So he's already thinking about 2020. Just so everybody knows, he's already thinking about 2032. He's thinking about 2032. He is. He's thinking about 2032.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
And for me, in his mind, and I don't blame him for thinking that way, the moment Biden started pardoning everybody, he said, oh, really? Thank you. Thank you. You just made my job so much easier. First time ever you want to pardon your entire family? No problem. You want to pardon... Anthony Fauci, you want to pardon all these guys? You're telling us that they were guilty? No problem.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Thank you for making my job easier. But in the back of his mind, he's saying, I lost that one term. Oh, you took that away from me? Didn't one of your guys serve three terms? Wasn't that guy serving three terms? Wasn't that guy some FDR? Why can't I serve three terms? I'm willing to bet internally in his mind. 28 is his.

Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
And don't know how it's going to happen, but in his creative, obsessive, stubborn mind, he's going to find a way to drive the hell out of that and talk to right attorneys behind closed doors to figure out a way to see even if there's a 5% chance of that taking place. And then... On the J.D. Vance side, I also think for him, he's going to be watching to see how J.D. does.

Especially with this, his wife, Stephen A. Smith, when he came down to the Super Bowl. By the way, I don't know about you guys. To me, this was the most boring Super Bowl I've watched in a long time. The commercials sucked. The halftime show sucked. I understand there's a lot of Kendrick Lamar guys. I'm an old school Tupac guy. I'm a Biggie guy. I thought it was horrible. I couldn't listen to it.

And you know what else the other part is? Let me tell you what personally I've experienced on a very smaller scale is – So I'm watching this video. It's actually a pretty good video to play. Rob, do you remember the video I sent to you guys about, what is it, Tyler Perry? Can you play that clip? Yeah, give me one second. So Tyler Perry, it's in a Peabody Podcast group text.

You know, in my life... I watch guys, my level of competitiveness with anybody is I always want to do more for you than you do for me. And it's a way of saying, hey, I'm going to go out of my way, but in return, I expect loyalty if I'm doing this for you, right? You're going to meet more people than you've ever met in your life. You're going to get a lot of opportunities.

It's just a mindset when you're building guys in an insurance company. Here's what we're going to be doing. And then you learn over time, some of the guys you started doing a lot for too early, and they were not grateful for it. Some of the guys you pumped up a little too early, and they became entitled. Some of the guys you did a little too early, and they became arrogant.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Some of the guys used your contact to get deals, and then you're like, oh, got it. So until one time it happens, it's just this person. Five times it happens, no, there's more of you. 50 times it happens, holy shit, I better get a better system to filter people out. So I know in his mind, giving up that endorsement is very, very heavy. Very heavy. And why would he give that to anybody?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546

Phenomenal message. So what I think he's going through right now is he's trying to find out who the roots are in his administration.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
I think it's too early with a few of them.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
I agree. But I think it's still too early with a few of them. And what he's proven... is he's the alpha amongst alphas. And others can try to argue that he's the alpha amongst the alphas. There is no question about that. So now you can either think like, well, no, I'm going to try to outdo him.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Or you can say, no, I'm going to be one of the roots because I know in return I'm going to get X, Y, Z. That's how I'm processing him not giving up the endorsement that easily. And I absolutely support the way he did it.

I think it's still early, but we'll see, to me. And by the way, I'm talking from a standpoint of I've never spoken to Cash, and I don't know the relationship. He's more educated on that. I know you and Cash have done great podcasts together and great conversations together, but I think that maybe... Cash has been there for a long time for Trump.

And by the way, you said family. Family has nothing to do with it. Trust me. The longer you're around, you realize family is not going to be there. Family, they're going to look for their own opportunity sometimes. And they're going to be like, well, this, this, that, because they still have a spouse and they're talking to somebody else that's in their ear more than Trump is.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
But at the same time, there's some that he's like, no, I know for a fact this guy is a true believer of the legacy of the family. That person wants to build their own identity. This person had a fallen out. We're probably not going to have a good relationship together for 10 years. That's kind of what that.

I mean, that's the right way to do it. We were at an event in, it was a Goldman Sachs event in Chicago, St. Regis. Tom, you remember this when we came back. And in this room, I'm sitting in this room, Glenn, and everybody's talking about G5s and G4s and G3s. I'm a G4, I'm a G5.

So anyways, G4, G5, G3, and the main thing that every parent who was a billionaire on stage in their 80s and 70s was being asked, is what do you do with the kids? They got to get an MBA. They got to go out there and work for somebody else. Then they can come back in a family business and work. Three years you have to go work for somebody else. But anyways, we'll see. Let's get to the next topic.

But Stephen A. Smith responded with a very interesting take, saying he would divorce Serena for Super Bowl halftime show because she's saying that she's still trying to get back at her ex.

We got a lot of them. Here's the next one. You talk AI a lot, Glenn. Recently, Musk and Sam Altman have been going back and forth, okay? And it's not been pretty. So OpenAI started as a nonprofit, I believe, and it was a noble cause. Hey, let's do OpenAI. Everything is open. Let as many people take advantage of this so they can do it themselves. And it's not about money.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
It's about the consciousness, future, humanists, all this other stuff. And then... He sits there, Sam Altman's like, we should have made this a for-profit company. And Elon Musk comes out and is not happy about it. And Trump in one of the interviews says, how do you handle the fact that, you know, Musk is calling out one of the guys on the deal? He says, yeah, he hates one of the guys on the deal.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
What do you want me to do about it? I hate some of the guys on the deal, right? They don't get along. And Musk goes and brings a group of people leading a $97.4 billion bid to control OpenAI, right? $97.4 to control OpenAI. He really wants this company. At this point, it's very obvious. And it's very obvious that Sam Altman...
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
is leveraging it to get under his skin, and he doesn't want to sell the company, right? So, along with investors, including Vi Capital, Jay, and Hollywood agent Ari Emanuel made a $97.4 billion bid to control OpenAI's nonprofit governing body. The bid is a direct challenge to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, who quickly dismissed it on X, saying, no, thank you.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
But we will buy Twitter for $9.74 billion, hence 97.4, $9.74 billion. And Elon responded with Swindler. Go a little bit lower. And for people that are wondering, that's not Elon's account. The handle is Elon Musk, but he changed the name.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Yeah, Harry Bowles. And he changed it to that. So anyways, long story short, the bid could complicate OpenAI's ongoing $40 billion fundraising deal led by SoftBank, which values the company at $300 billion. OpenAI nonprofit structure gives it legal control over the company despite having only two employees and $22 million in assets.

Musk's offer OpenAI to determine a fair market value for its nonprofit arm. which must be compensated if Altman and his team fully transition to a for-profit model. If Sam Altman and the present OpenAI Inc. board are intent on becoming a fully for-profit corporation, it is vital that the charity be fairly compensated, said Mark Tuberhoff, Musk's attorney. Glenn, thoughts?

Next story here that we got outside of this is Trump's still obsessed about Canada being the 51st state. He's not, like, fooling around with it. He was asked by Brett Perry.

And we're talking about from January to February, and Trump's being asked about this constantly. And he's doing his weaving. He's not doing the, what's the other word? He says, I'm not, what's the word when you're dodging answers to a question? You're dodging a question. No, there's a different word for it. Deflecting? He says, I'm weaving.

So deal with it. Whenever in a company you launch a new comp plan, on how to bonus, on how to get a new sales structure that you launch to your guys. You know what happens? Some of the guys don't like it. They're like, man, this is bad. I'm out. Some of the guys panic. Some of the guys stay patient. But you cannot judge a comp plan and the consequences of it for three to six months.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
It takes about six months, and that's in a small company. Now, in a country, it may take six to 12 months, and you just have to be kind of patient to see what's going to be happening.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
I don't think it's going to take that long, but once they come out with the tax plan, it's going to be a different sentiment when people start realizing, okay, I may be patient here with the tariffs to see what happens, but I'm going to get some victories here on this side. Okay, next story. Next story is about California wildfires.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Allstate says California wildfires to bring company $1.1 billion in losses. Okay, now this is one of many insurance companies. One of the most interesting percentages in this story is the following. Allstate CEO Tom Wilson announced that the company's losses from devastating Southern California wildfires are expected to be around $1.1 billion pre-tax net of reinsurance.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
attributing the impact to strategic decision to reduce market share beginning 07 in a comprehensive reinsurance program. The losses stem from fires, including the Palisades fire, which scorched 23,700 acres, destroyed 6,800 structures, and claimed more than two dozen lives.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
All state shares of California homeowners, that's the percentage, Tom, all state shares of California homeowners insurance market has dropped significantly. from 12.6% in 2008 to 5.8%. They've been leaving. They're like, dude, lower the risk in the state of California. 5.8% in 2023. So this $1.1 billion loss...
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
We realized it was because of Tom Ellsworth, but it's gone up a lot because of the interest and... Tom being a family guy, and a lot of ladies want their husbands to be paying attention to Tom and what things we talk about here. There's requests of getting rid of Adam. A guy tweeted me the other day saying, look, don't ever make the mistake of getting rid of Adam. He is this.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
is only on 5.8%, which means the other 20 times of whoever the other insurance companies are, what did they lose? Think about that number right there. Tom, what are your thoughts on this story?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
By the way, you look at that right there, Tom. This came up just two hours ago. Travelers estimates California wildfire loss at $1.7 billion. So that's another one, $1.7 billion. And if you remember, ABC News came out with a story estimating that the total losses are going to be around $30 billion. Some are even saying $40 billion. Insurance company in the state of California. So, again...

not just luxury hotels, they clarified that only 19 of the $237 million in federal funding awarded to the city have not gone to hotels and that the majority will be spent on reimbursing other services the city should.

Now, let me read this to you. Hamas says it's delaying next hostage release, claiming ceasefire violations. Hamas announced it would delay the next hostage release, accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire by preventing displaced Palestinians from returning to northern Gaza, targeting civilians and restricting aid.

Retroactively, Israel has denied violating the ceasefire, and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz called Samas' move a blatant violation of ceasefire agreements. The ceasefire, which began last month, has so far resulted in five hostage prisoner swaps, freeing 21 Israeli hostages in exchange for 730 Palestinian prisoners.

It's 58 kilometers is what it is. Tehran to Karaj. Anyways, we got in the car. We went there. What happened? Then they started bombing Tehran. And then he started bombing Karaj. Then from Karaj, we went to Bandar Pahlavi. Then Bandar Pahlavi is like Norton. Then he started bombing Rasht. If you type in Rasht, type in R-A-S-H-T. He's got a summer place there.

That's Rasht. Okay. So we went to Rasht. Summer in Rasht. We went to Bandar Pahlavi. He bombed Rasht. So meaning? For people that are seeing Trump say that, and you got wife and kids, and you don't support the Hamas, but you're there, guess what?

So Trump's not going to tell you what does all... In your mind, when he says all hell will break loose, you're thinking missiles and bombs and all that stuff. No. When he's saying all hell's going to break loose, that means whoever the top head honchos the leaders are, You're about to meet your maker.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
I think that's the last option. But there's a possibility that could take place as well. I don't think Trump's going to take that option. I think he's going to take a different option. Let's go to the next story. The next story I got here is a business story with PwC. Consulting giant PWC, whom we've worked with many times, discourages white Asian students from applying to career programs.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
White and Asian. I'm glad it didn't say Assyrian, but it does say white and Asian. Let me read this to you. Okay. PwC's career preview, a three-day summer seminar in Orlando, explicitly excludes white and Asian students from applying, stating applicants must self-identify as a member of traditionally underrepresented group in the professional services industry, black or Latino, Hispanic.
PBD Podcast

That's an insult. Because they're pretty damn good at that. It's almost an insult to be like, imagine you're in the room and there's no whites and Asians. It's a way of saying, hey, guys, we don't think you can ever beat them. But we care for you. You're more important to us than those guys that are more elite and smarter than you.

Canada wasn't war-torn. Vinny, you said Super Bowl. Let's go into the Super Bowl story. So Kendrick Lamar performs Drake's diss track, Not Like Us, at the Super Bowl halftime show. And he doesn't say with one big change. Rob, we can't show the clip because it's... Do you have anything to show? You can't show it, right?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Wait, wait. We'll go to that. But let's stay on this here first. So, and then the one big change is, instead of rapping certified lover boy, certified pedophiles, Lamar went silent at the word pedophile while still delivering other cutting lines, including, say, Drake, I hear you like him, Young. Yes. You better not ever go to cell block one trying to strike a chord, and it's probably a minor.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Anyways, he went at it, right? He did not hold back. However... Then there was a scene with Serena Williams making a surprise cameo. Again, we can't show that. She was dancing, and I think she was doing a crip walk.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Yeah, so she's doing a crip walk, which that's the one. And guys in the back, don't play it. But that's the crip walk, which, by the way, she's actually got it down pretty good. She knows what she's doing. So that's that. And then story comes out about the fact that she is performing with Kendrick Lamar while Kendrick is dissing Drake. While Drake was her ex, I did not even know these guys dated.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
And then at the same time, you know, afterwards, you know, as he performed as a Grammy winner with this track, Not Like Us, after the show, Williams posted a video removing her costume and joking, oh, I did not crip walk like that at Wimbledon. I would have been fined. and joking, appearance paid tribute to the Compton, California roots aligning with Lamar's performance.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
Fans saw Williams' cameo as an extra layer of shade towards Drake, with whom she has a complicated history of a leaked 100-gigabyte data dump in 2024 revealed that Drake's 2016 song Too Good was written about Williams. And so if I ever learn anything this year, it's that none of us, not a single one of us, not even me, should ever pick a fight with Kendrick Lamar. And...

William has already taken a jab at Drake amid his feud with Lamar, saying this. Okay, then Stephen A. Smith comes out. Rob, if you have the Stephen A. Smith clip, Stephen A.

That's not 4% fewer. That's not 10% fewer. So let's just say the stock does bad, but your sales are high. You're fine. It's not that the stock's down. It's the sales are down 45% fewer in Europe than last month. Then BEV sales grew by 37%. That's the China car. That's like a $9,000 car. Reaching a market share of 16.7%. And self-charging hybrids are Europe's favorite powertrain type with a 34.9%.

So Musk is sitting here. I think sales in China is down 29%, if I'm not mistaken. Europe, he's down 45%. And he's down in U.S. as well.

Elon Musk publicly diverts from President Trump's tariff power, advocating at a virtual rally for Italy's Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini. I hope that the United States and Europe can establish a very close relationship.

And then he continues – talking about possibility of, you know, Peter Navarro on X writing a PhD in e-com from Harvard is a bad thing, not a good thing. And he aimed to build shit after Navarro defended tariffs on CNN, saying we're trying to do under the principle that the president wants to charge those countries what they charge us. So there's a little bit of a rift here with this situation.

People move on and have their own lives. By the way, Michael Jordan was married to a girl early on in his career that I think he got her pregnant before they got married. And then when... They got married, and he's in the NBA. He's Michael Jordan. They're having a challenging time, and then boom, she apparently hired somebody, a PR, to go investigate.

They move on. You've never seen her in media at all. She kind of wanted to be to herself. Very minimal stuff that she wants to do.

And you start your own podcast with your brother, and you're saying the comments, and you're saying... If you want to go, all I'm saying is if a president gets a divorce, I wouldn't look at Obama one way or another. I would simply say, I get it. It's tough. God bless. And don't forget, they were young presidents. They weren't old presidents. So it's a difference when you're a young president.

But if you're talking about the example that Brandon has given, I also do think a Bill and Hillary sit there and say, hey, one day we're going to be presidents. This is a good partnership to go together rather than I love you. There could be an ambition. You think they did that in 71?

Big difference. Mark Cuban versus him. He'll call out BS, and Mark Cuban is just going to sit there and try to spin. I don't get a feel that Stephen A is spinning a lot. I think Stephen A was afraid to be a little bit more public about it maybe a year ago, maybe a couple years ago, maybe a few years ago. I think right now he's more open about it, and he's still got the contract. He's with ESPN.

This is Tucker. Whatever you think of tariffs, it's clear that now is the worst possible time for the United States to participate in a military strike on Iran. We can't afford it. Thousands of Americans would die. We'd lose the war that follows. Nothing would be more destructive of our country, and yet we're closer than ever. And thanks to unrelenting pressure from neocons, this is suicidal.

You know what's going to bother you? If you look at the rial, I just looked up right now what the rial was to dollar when I left Iran and came here. In 1979, the rial was for every U.S. dollar, you could get 70 Iranian rials, 70, okay? Then in 89, when I left, I was born in 78, so I'm saying 79. When we left in 89, in 89, it was 90 rials to a dollar. If you just type in 89, okay?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
89, yeah, you got 90 to 100 rials per dollar. And he said today in the story, a million rials to a dollar?
PBD Podcast

That's the story we just read a minute ago. That's insane to see where it's at today. What is it today, Rob? Today, rials to dollar today. Yeah, but you've got to flip it the other way around. So that would be $500,000, give or take, right? So that's extremely devastating to the people that are living there. Okay, so there's a couple things here that's going on.

Here's a question. So shouldn't Trump be able to use that threat? Should he be able to use that card that if we do this, we will destroy you? Should he use that? Do we want to go to war? No. Should he be able to say, if you do this, we're going to do this? Should they be able to do that? Is that a card he should use?

Nothing. They went and reacted to a base where nobody was there. They knew nobody was there, so nothing happened. But let me tell you what happened. I'm going with this. There's two thoughts on this that I have. One is I had DJ Shipley and Cole Fackler here last week, I think, Rob, if I'm not mistaken. Their podcast goes out tomorrow. Sick podcast.
PBD Podcast

Cole told a story that he's never told before that has to do with Osama bin Laden. And the way he said it was very awkward. And he says, I've never said this before.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
He said it on the podcast. He said it on the podcast, yeah. But I asked him a question. I said, listen. You know, what do you think about threats? Like out of all the countries in the world, I asked DJ this question, who do you not believe? Whose threats have no weight, right? Like, you know, I'm going to do this, you're not going to do shit. Holy shit, that guy's going to do something.
PBD Podcast

I'm going to kill you. Believe him, right? I said, if you notice a lot of threats lately with Putin has been Ukraine, nuclear, nuclear, nuclear. Three times, nothing's happened. Ukraine has not backed down. I said, Trump, hey, if you don't release all the hostages, Hamas, we're going to do this two, three times. They still didn't do all of them, right?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
If I'm not mistaken, all the hostages have never been released.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
I said, okay, so, hey, we're going to do this. Whose threats do you not believe? And I'm going to Iran when I'm asking this question. And he says, well, we definitely didn't take Osama bin Laden seriously all those years when they said they're going to do something. And then we realized they did. So you know what we do now? We take every threat seriously. every threat seriously.

We don't sit there and say whether we're gonna do it or not, that we don't have the ability, we can't do that, meaning both of them are Navy SEAL Team 10, 17 years they both were in there, now they run a company together doing incredible things together. But the second part to me is the following. So Trump's trying to change the comp plan to a 250-year-old company. And this is what I mean by it.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
So when you have a new insurance company, new company period, I changed the comp plan so many times because I could, we're small. And it was drastic changes I would make. I lost 28 guys. I lost 17 guys. I gained 88 guys. And then you would kind of see which comp has produced and what results, right? It's like changing the tax system. Trump is changing the comp plan
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
with countries around the world with tariffs, super disruptive, super, super disruptive. You're in the middle of doing that, and you want to deal with this Iran situation? I think here's what's going to happen. I'm not one to sit there and, you know, I wrote a book called 25 Laws for Doing the Impossible, so I'm not one that's going to be saying don't do it.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
But it's either going to cause every one of them to fall apart and none of the deals to get through, or... they're all going to happen. And sometimes it's about sequencing. So I'm just wondering if we go into war right now, while you're trying to change all the tariffs, does that slow things down?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Does that throw a wrench in the... Does that get some of the people to be a little bit hesitant? Does that get some of your own people that won't be on your side? Do you think 100% of people on Trump's camp are for war?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Do you think 100%? So this is when all of a sudden it's been long enough where we're getting close to the first 100 days that some of the people even on his own camp are going to be like, look, man, I'm just not for what they're doing over here. Look, I'm glad that we won, but I'm not for this.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And if you get about 40% that now disagrees with you internally, that we're all aligned even behind closed doors, then you start worrying about who to trust. Is that person on my side? Is that person not on my side? Then that can lead to a panicky type of a leading, which that's not the vibe he gives today. He seems like he's very stable and confident in what he's doing.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
He seems like he has 100% of it all under control. He seems happy. But I don't know. There's a part of me that says Iran has to know, look, you keep doing this, here's what's possible. But at the same time, you don't ever want to use that card. You want to avoid that card as much as possible. He just did, just so you know. That bomb on Huti, say, you guys having a meeting? No problem.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Boom, you're dead. So he's already done it. So it's not like it hasn't happened yet. We've already played offense. He's already shown that I'm ready for it. And the speculation about this and that, and is it this, is it allies, that, is it Israel? He's trying to do deals. I think he's at a phase right now that he's trying to do all these deals, and deals sometimes means, what do you need from me?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
I'll do this. I'll give you this. He's transactionally looking at deals being done, and he knows he's got to do something for you as well. It's not going to be 100% of deals being done for you. That's kind of how I process this.

Jerome Powell, this is the only story that we haven't done that I do want to do. Powell predicts when Americans will feel Ripple effects from Trump's global tariffs. Rob, if you got this clip, I think you got a clip on this. If you can play because Trump calls for federal feds up how to cut interest rates and stop playing politics. That's what Trump said.
PBD Podcast

OK, on the same exact day when Trump says this. OK, President Trump urged Federal General Jerome Powell to cut the rates on Friday on Truth Social.

So, okay, if we go 1970, obviously a couple major events took place. We've talked about this multiple times. We went off the gold standard with Nixon. We allow China to come in. Gradually, the whole ping pong, you know, and then in the World Trade Organization, China gets involved.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And then for us right now, like the supplies that we have, if you go on Trump's store, all his stuff is not made in U.S. You see made in China, made in Singapore, made in this, made in that. Why? Labor has to compete for us to bring a lot of the stuff here. You know, you're like, what am I going to do? Am I going to have to compete?
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
Because America is not known for a lot of the products to manufacture. We've went away from that. We need to get back into that. So somebody needs to sit there and say, how do I make that competitive in America? We've missed the mark there. And at the same time, the one thing once we went off of the gold standard, what happened? That became so easy.

So people could raise debt and take a business and grow it. So if somebody has access to debt, somebody leverages debt, somebody risks with debt, the other person doesn't, the disparity of the wealth is going to get wider and wider and wider. The part that they haven't yet figured out is what to do with the median income because that's definitely not growing.
PBD Podcast
Iran Threatens Trump As Tariff Trade War RAGES | PBD Podcast | Ep. 572
And that should be a concern because some of these guys cannot afford houses. So either income needs to go up, correction needs to happen, or people need to go and live in a rural – place that no one knows about and turn it into a next Frisco, turn it into a next Palmdale, turn it into a next whatever city that may be, and that's a valid concern.

He's not hurting. He's hurting the rich. Yeah. So the rich are being, the rich are the ones, even, even Musk is a little bit like, Hey, you know, I don't know if you have that clip, Rob.

And I noticed something that he got an award, which I don't want to be too specific because if I tell you the award, you'll know. Yeah. So all this stuff is documented. OK, so. I said, if we do this, I don't recommend you do this, but I'm going to talk about somebody I met without giving any intel. I'll talk about it tomorrow. And he's getting more and more nervous.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I said, if we do it, we'll cover the face, do the audio. Well, I don't want to do audio. Let's have me tell John, and then John tells you. I said, I'm not going to compromise our reputation, what we have with the podcast. People trust us when we talk. They want to listen to it, and I want to vet it. I recommend you not do it. At this point, Rob's in the room. Rob, you're in the room.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I think it's me, you, and him, and another one of our guys that's in the room as well. And I said to him, don't do the interview. Fly back home. You were there when I specifically said that to him. Right? Okay. I said, if we do it, we have to do it in this following way. That took around how long?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
The entire conversation. This is after two and a half hours of me being with him, then you come in. About 45 minutes. About 45 minutes. 45 minutes later, he's extremely uncomfortable. I got to use the bathroom. I got to use the bathroom. Okay, great. Boom, boom, boom. We get on the golf cart. We go to the other building to start the interview.

the gentleman who was in the cyber truck explosion in front of the Trump Tower in Vegas. We will read that email and have some interaction, reaction to it. Then Trump was asked about shutting down TikTok. He says, why would I want to get rid of TikTok? And when he breaks down the numbers,
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
At this point, I want to say, I remember when we started the interview, it was 841. So when we started, the start time was 8.41 and we ended at like 9.30 or something like that. And then, you know, he was here, we had to order food because nobody had eaten anything for hours and our production team was waiting.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Anyways, by the time it was done with the interview, he says, I have sources that I'm confident something's about to happen. The last three predictions he got right, he's confident that something's going to happen on the 9th, the 19th, and the 20th. They don't want this man to take office. Now, I'm in the business of sizing people up.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And when you're in sales and you have compliance, people try to take advantage of clients and insurance and stuff like that. You have to know who's full of it and who's not. And sometimes you have to make tough decisions of working with the Department of Insurance and Regulation and all this stuff. Anyways, so finally I'm like, while we're going through it, super nervous.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
At the end, Rob, it's only me, you, and him in the room. What happened to him at the end of the conversation?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
emotional in a hysterical way emotional in a way that he didn't want you to know that he got emotional like he was holding back the tears but he couldn't hold them back any longer yeah so this is a family man this is not a guy that's single that has nothing to lose he has a lot to lose sizable business that he's the CEO of, does very well for himself.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
So for me, when I see things like this and somebody like this comes up, I'm extremely skeptical. But I'm not one that would sit there and say, well, why not talk about this? Because with all the stuff that's going on right now, who knows, the right person watches this, And they may increase security.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I don't know if you remember when we were in Hamptons and we did that one podcast when he was giving the RNC speech at like 1230. We're sitting there listening to this. Do you remember that one right after Eric Trump? Eric Trump. And

Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And I'm asking the question, I'm like, how do you not have the glass for AV to protect against it and all this other stuff where AV can spend a little bit more money to put the glass to protect it?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
of how Maga himself, others have performed on TikTok, the likes of Charlie Kirk, the numbers will shock you when you see this. Then a couple other stories. Another one is a weekend Iran prepares to face Trump 2.0. This is a Wall Street Journal story. We'll definitely talk about that.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
So, look, if this causes a little bit more, you know, because sometimes you can be overly confident and everything is good, all this other stuff, and then all of a sudden, you know, you make one mistake, you put your guard down, and then you're done. And I hear Dan Bongino saying secret service is still not his secret service.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And you hear Trump defending a lot of the secret service that know him and they're protective of him, all this other stuff. All I'm saying is there's three big events that's coming up. And if this guy comes in here, by the time it was done, every one of us started off skeptical. If the interview goes out, you'll be able to hear it and make your own decision on it if it does go out or not.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
At this point, high likelihood it's not going out. 80% it's not going out where I'm just kind of sharing this with you and whatever people want to do with this information, they'll do what they want to do with it.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
There definitely is a little bit of a different, and by the way, even Blinken the other day said that China, Ukraine, Russia, Ukraine, they increased the chances of a nuclear weapon being used from 5% to 15%. Did you see that last week? Yep. Did you guys see that last week? Yes, which is a huge jump when it comes to nukes. What do you mean 5% to 15%? Not bad.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I mean, five to 15%, 5% is one out of 20, 15% is one out of seven. You know, is that what, no, Rob, if you just type in blink in 5%, 15% nuclear on Google, it'll come up, but it's a story. That's a different kind of a story. Blink in, uh, five to 15% nuclear. You'll see a story that'll come up. Um, This just came out this week. Is that it right there?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
We have reason to believe that China engaged Russia and said don't go there. Blinken told the outlet, adding, even if there's probability, if the probability went from 5% to 15% when it comes to nuclear weapons, nothing is more serious. The Secretary of State also noted that China likely stepped in to persuade Putin not to launch a nuclear weapon into space.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Tensions were raised further into November where Putin lowered the threshold for nuclear strike. Anyways, so all this stuff is going on at the same time. Tom, how worried are you yourself during this specific season? Because we've been saying January 20th can't come fast enough. How concerned are you?

Elon Musk goes global with his playbook for political influence, specifically targeting UK and Germany and sharing a lot of content by Tommy Robinson, who was arrested in Canada. And we have some thoughts on Tommy Robinson today. Vinny was with Piers Morgan yesterday, and I think one of the topics that was brought up was Tommy Robinson. Yes. And I'm sure you got some share over there.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Yeah, I asked him, I said, who is behind this? He gave me a name privately on who he said was behind it. And when we were on here, he didn't give the name. When we had him on here, I said, but who is behind this? Is it a Republican? Is it a Democrat? He says, no, this is not about a Republican or Democrat issue. This is about a globalist and a nationalist. I said, tell me more.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
He says, what is Viktor Orban? Is he a globalist or a nationalist? So he's a nationalist. He says they don't like nationalists. These are people that want a globalist control. They don't want the nationalist control. So how about you, Vinny? When you hear stories like this.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Well, I think there is Republican, Democrat. There's conservative, liberal. There's establishment, anti-establishment. There's globalist. There's nationalist. I think there's a lot of those that's going on right now that we're kind of going through.

Let me see what point he's making. No, Vinny, go. I actually want to know where you're going. Let's see where you're going. The point is this. This is a regular day in Israel. Continue.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Where are you going, bro? Where am I going? Where are you going?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Let's get there.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Okay. So, look, regardless of what happens here, I think there's a couple things to be thinking about. While we're driving and this conversation is taking place, Dylan and Tico overhear the conversation about a possible attack on inauguration, and they know that we have plans of being there, okay? So all of a sudden I hear an exchange between these two guys going back and forth.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
One is saying, you know, no, we shouldn't go there because what if something does happen? And the other one is saying, no, we should go there because if we have faith in God, you know, we just have to know that God's also there. He's going to protect us. And so I watched this debate going back and forth.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
It was the most disturbing conversation I've had in a long time. And some of the stuff I saw and he told me, and then we ended up recording a conversation, whether we go live with it or not, I don't know. But I think there's some stuff that is worthy for others to know about. This was not a regular person that came here. And we were here last night.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
It was such an incredible debate watching these two kids, 12 and 11-year-old, having the argument, hey, we should, we shouldn't. One is based on fear. One is based on faith. And then there is reason and logic, which is what? Preparation. Proper preparation prevents poor performance. And in this case, my main thing is the following.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
A person like President Trump, he's going to be in many, many different places where there's many, many opportunities to want to do something to him. He can't sit there and hide. He just can't sit there and hide. Would I rely purely on the Secret Service to protect him? I don't think so. But you have to have... pre-conversation with, like, New Orleans, Kennedy is from New Orleans, right?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Kennedy's from Louisiana. What's his name? Senator Kennedy, right. And they were asking about the fact on what happened in New Orleans. He says, we had a few screw-ups. We messed up. He said, I want to think that Biden came down here, but we screwed up a few different times. And he says the thing is we can't get Christine Noem to be sworn in fast enough to get people here for help on Super Bowl.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
When is the Super Bowl, Rob?

Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
What is the exact date for Super Bowl? I'll tell you.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Okay, and it's in New Orleans, Louisiana. He's saying, we want this place to be safe. We need the administration to send us support. Right now, it's a little bit lackluster, but we cannot swear in... I don't know why they say Kristi Noem. What's Kristi Noem's job, by the way, that she's getting, Rob? What is Kristi Noem's job? they were specifically talking about Christine.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Homeland Security. Okay, so that's why they said Homeland Security. For sure it's not PETA.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Right. Is that what it is? But the point is, yeah. So the point is the fact they want protection. All in all, all I'm saying here is I would highly encourage, and I'm sure they're already doing it, Trump's camps, one of the most brilliant camps they put together, being extremely proactive with the military to protect them, not waiting until he's in to speak to military to feel protected.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I don't know. I'm always going to lean on having some PMCs to protect you that you trust. I would be putting a big budget together for private military contractors to come in and protect them for the inauguration that's coming up. I'm going to the next story. I've got to go to the next story. We've been on this thing for 40 minutes. Next story, real quick, I'm going to share here with you guys.

So political comes out with this article. And again, this is fear, fear, fear, fear, fear. A little bit of it, there's a difference between danger and fear. Fear porn is out there. Danger is what's really likely to happen. I don't know if you guys watch this movie Homestead. That just came out. Have you seen Homestead? No, it's good. You know who did it? Angel Studios did it. Oh, really?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Yeah, I watched Homestead with the kids. It's an okay movie, but the thought of it, you ought to watch it. Just because of what happens, there is an attack, and there's this man who owns this property that he calls Homestead that he prepared for a nuclear war. It's worth you going and watching. I'd actually go back and watch it with you, Vinny.

Rob, if you want to pull up, is this the story right there? Yeah. So he is a former 73-year-old host of Undisputed at the center of a bombshell 42-page lawsuit. Rob, if you want to go a little bit lower for me to read it. Okay.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
A 42-page lawsuit filed by former hairstylist Nushin Faraji, which is probably Persian, of offering her $1.5 million of sex with him, claiming he could change her life. What a way to die. Wow.

Shannon Sharp. In one exchange, when Farage rebuffed him by referencing his wife, Bayless reported, he replied, aren't you Muslim? Doesn't your dad have three or four wives? Okay, so that's... He said she's okay.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529

Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
In her about Dixon's behavior, Farage claims she faced a misogynistic, racist, and obliged workplace where abuse was tolerated and says her complaints to human resources were ignored. Okay? So that's that. Now... Stephen A. Smith responds to it. Rob, do you have the shorter version of the response? I cut it down. It's a little bit shorter. Okay, go for it. Stephen A. finally responds to it.

All right. So, UK, with everything that's going on over there, who is Tommy Robinson? Elon Musk keeps retweeting things about Tommy Robinson, you know, Pierce, Morgan, had a different position to take about Tommy Robinson. I think Elon and Pierce had a back and forth. Elon talked about his brain hasn't had an upgrade for many years.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Pierce Morgan retweets that comment and says, hey, why don't we have a podcast together so you can help me upgrade my brain? They're going back and forth. Okay, now this is Tommy Robinson getting arrested. Rob, if I'm not mistaken, this is in Canada. He's getting arrested. Let me first... read who Tommy Robinson is to the story that we have from Forbes, and then we can get to this.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
So Tommy Robinson, Elon Musk has reportedly posted a support, in support of British far-right activist Tommy Robinson, now this is Forbes saying that, pinning free Tommy Robinson to the top of his ex-profile and sharing a dozen posts on the subject. And one day, Musk previously reinstated Robinson's account after it was banned and has intensified his backing, coinciding with increased support
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Involvement in UK's politics following Donald Trump's election win. Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley Lemon, is the founder of an anti-Islam English defense league and a prominent far-right figure in the UK.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
He is serving an 18-month prison sentence after being found guilty of contempt for repeatedly violating a court order relating to making libelous claims about a Syrian refugee, which he has continued to repeat despite the ruling. So now, again... From the article, you can tell where Forbes stands. Obviously, this is him getting arrested in Canada. I believe Rob Gordon played a clip.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Laptops, iPads, whatever else you want to put it on. Okay. Let's get into the story. First story I want to start off with is something I was talking to you guys about earlier. And that is... Rob, what is that page? DC on high alert. There it is. DC on high alert going into unprecedented period of prominent events. That's a WAPO story. Okay. So you hear this.
PBD Podcast

PBD Podcast

And it says, Washington, D.C., on high alert as it prepares for an unprecedented series of three national special security events, the electoral count on J6, Jimmy Carter State Funeral on 11th, which, by the way, it's a whole week thing, starts from, I believe, the 4th to the 11th, but the main days are the 9th. And that Biden's going to be out and Trump's going to be out.
PBD Podcast

PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And then there's stuff at 11th as well. Trump's inauguration on January 20th. But there's also a Trump event called the Victory Parade Rap. I'm thinking it's on the 19th.

PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Yeah, I mean, what he's talking about, keep going until you see where he talks about what the issue is. Is that it? I think that's the one right there. In the majority Filipino areas of U.K., Must look and feel like British. In majority Indian areas of the U.K., it must and look feel like British. In majority Jewish, it must.

Immigrate, expect to adapt to British culture, no matter how small the norm. We like quiet Sunday mornings. Problem, leave. You respect British culture, standards of hygiene and social norms.

May of last year. Atheist, Christian. Yeah. And Andrew is a guy who's a stats guy, who's a data guy. Now, of course, he has said a lot of different things, and he's called Islam the last true religion on the planet, and he said a bunch of different things about it. His brother is still a Christian, Tristan, so they're kind of going through it together.

The Victory Rally on the 19th is a day before Inauguration Day in D.C., And this has caused a Secret Service official, William Matt McCool, who said that has never happened before, this many events.

PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
But when you go through this phase and you look at stats, the question is very simple. What Tommy is posing, the questions he's asking is, debate it. Debate the data. Debate the stats. You can sit there, if you're a Muslim, you can say, yes, we're winning, we're taking over. Yeah, you're right. You are. Guess what?
PBD Podcast

This is the byproduct of being too naive and saying, yeah, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, being too tolerant. Now you experience this.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And the most beautiful thing about what's going on over there, and it's so tragic when you hear stories like this with the kids, but the most incredible thing that's happening right now is people who were once supportive of it are now saying, whoa, listen.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
You crossed the line. This is a little bit too much. This was not the plan. Now you're crossing the line. Now we've got to figure something out here. So I'm kind of glad Tommy's getting the eyeballs that he's getting. I want to also play the opposite side of what Pierce said about him. And even Tommy retweeted what Pierce said about him, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
If you have the clip of what Pierce said, this is the one. You were on the show yesterday. Just put him up real quick to have Pierce say a couple words about him. Go for it.

If you can pull up this report, Rob, from Norway that Humberto sent in, breaking down where the crime is coming from. All you have to do is track the data. This is not hard to do. If you really wanted to track the data to see where it's coming from, you would be able to look at it and say, what's the problem? Why don't you track the data? What are you worried about tracking the data?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Because here's Norway, okay? Here's indictments for violence per 1,000 inhabitants. Lowest is who? People from Norway. Then you got Pakistan, Syria, Russia, Afghanistan, Eritrea, which is like a country in Africa, Iraq, Ethiopia, Somalia. Somalia.

Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Yeah, but guess what this does? Now, what if this said U.S.? What if this said Brazil? What if this said Spain? Great. Then you address that. But it's not saying that. It's saying Pakistan, Syria, Russia, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Iraq, Ethiopia, Somalia. What common trend do you see there in a pattern? What is it? What's the common pattern?

You're not American, all this other stuff. I actually understand that argument. And let me explain what I mean by it. For me to understand the American that is worried about a guy from Iran that's coming, you go back to your country. Percentages are what? If I get this many people that are coming from there, my experience has been, you know, this, guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I'm going to automatically put you in a box that you're going to be like them. Totally understand that part. I mean, you have to kind of look at that part. And then you have to create a certain filtering system to bring the best in. If there is no proper filtering system... then it's a shit show. Then U.S. turns into U.K.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Then they ought to be completely worried about who's coming in and who's not. This is why the illegal immigration on the border, they're calling all of them asylum. Asylum is like, give me a flip and break, right? So U.K. is a perfect case study of what America should be studying to make sure it doesn't happen in America. You got all these guys, social media influencers, the younger guys,
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
that on Twitter, on X, on YouTube, that they're talking about Islam and Muslim and they're getting into the heads of a lot of these younger guys. They're saying, man, maybe that's the way to go. Maybe that's the way to go. And then some of the stuff that you hear about the way they look at kids, underage, well, you know, because of this, you know, it's justified if somebody this.

What does the word betrothed mean? Given to him. When she was around six years old and the marriage was... consummated when she was around nine years old.

I mean, we've read this and we've seen this, right? But the biggest part about this is, okay, so guess what? Somebody reads this. You read this, what do you say? That's freaking insane. Of course. But what if somebody reads this in Iraq? What if somebody reads this in... Afghanistan. What if somebody reads this in, pick one of those countries, and they say, what's the big deal? Of course.

Yeah. I mean, the biggest thing about this, a few years ago, you were walking on eggshells about this topic. Two years ago, people were, not even two years ago, a year ago, people were conflicted. Conflicted, okay? For Andrew Tate to be saying what he's saying right now about Great Britain, you don't believe in our way of living, go back home? I'm sorry, Andrew.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
You're talking specifically to a community. And he's one of the greatest communicators around the world. For him to say something like that, he's just putting it out there that this is how I feel.

PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
got to kind of be careful what's going on over here right now. This is good. Time reveals bad policies. Time reveals bad ideas. And that's exactly what's taking place right now. I got 10 more minutes to go through a couple other stories before we wrap up. Do we want to talk about Sean Ryan's and what happened with the Cybertruck stuff. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Rob, if you want to pull that up, I'm going to read a couple of the stories because on Saturday, on Friday, a podcast was done with Sean Ryan and Sam reading an email, okay? And in that email... If you have that video, because in here, yeah, I urge everyone to dedicate 45 minutes to fully grasp the details of what has been unfolded.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
The episode takes a deep dive into a manifesto, an email written, sent to Sam by Matt Liversberger himself within chilling documentaries of boldly declares what I'm going to send you is going to change the course of humanity. Matt, a former Green Berets at the center of the story, Cybertruck. In this episode, we unpack the manifesto's content, which includes allegations.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
What's chilling is the same individual who emailed Sam also emailed Sean Ryan also to corroborate this interview. Link below. Okay, so I watched the interview. And it's very, very interesting. Now, fast forward afterwards, I think Sean had to make it. And by the way, Sean is probably one of the best podcasts, top five podcasts in the world. He's absolutely blown up the last two years.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And I think even right now, Spotify, he's ranked number one for the last 72 hours. He may still be number one. He does a great job with interviews, military background. And here's the story. Let me read this to you. Matthew Liversberger claimed Cybertruck bombing was to cleanse his mind of brothers he lost and trashed feckless leadership of a U.S. near collapse.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
37-year-old goes up that this is not a terrorist attack. It was a wake-up call explaining his actions as a way to cleanse my mind of the brothers I've lost and relive myself of the burden of the lives I took. Matt's phone contained another note urging Americans to wake up, accusing the U.S. of being...
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
led by weak and feckless leadership and claiming the nation was terminally ill and headed toward collapse. He also emailed a manifesto to Army intelligence officer alleging a conspiracy involving drones with gravity manipulation technology. Is this the email, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And what criticism did this email get, Vinny? Is it the fact that the red dots?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
So here's not just anybody. Dan Bongino was a police officer, New York City police officer. And then after that, he went and served as a U.S. Secret Service agent from 1999 to 2011. So think about during 01, 9-11, he was there. So you got, I believe, Clinton, Bush, and Obama, if I'm not mistaken. I don't know if he was Clinton. I think it's Bush and Obama.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Yeah, Tim Kennedy saw the interview, and he says, wait a minute, I know this guy. I know this guy. I did something with this guy. And then he realized this was something, an inside edition of TMZ interviewed him about it. That was his partner in this show.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Now, you got to know what happens in the military world. Tim Kennedy had some criticism about a month ago where a couple other – by the way, in every world, this is kind of how it works. They see guys, a bunch of military vets try to create content. One breaks out. They all attack him. Of course. Okay. Sean Ryan breaks out. Jocko breaks out. Tim Kennedy breaks out. No, that's not true.

And it sometimes happens, like, we're the real ones, he's not the real one. And some of the stories, maybe it's fabricated, maybe it's over-exaggerated, and you've added some stories to it, it's fine. But Tim Kennedy is a man's man. He's a fighter, he fought in the UFC, he's a stud, he's a great communicator. There's history with this guy doing great work. So, yeah, he was on this show with him.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
But the part... Rob, what has happened since that podcast till today... With Sean, with Sam and how the market has reacted to it. What have you found?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Got it. Okay. And by the way, good for Sean for doing that. And I think there was a story that said he had left the country. Why do I feel like I read a story?
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
I found a podcast that's disappearing after Matthew Ellsberg's alleged manifesto is shown. This is Newsweek. Sean Ryan, host, 3.6 million subscribers, was disappearing for a few days after releasing an episode, alleged manifesto, Cybertruck. What we are about to release is a mind-boggling, will raise a lot of questions.
PBD Podcast

The email forwarded by intelligence analyst Sam to the FBI stated that drones over New Jersey and advanced Chinese technology call them the most dangerous threat to national security that has ever existed. And, yeah, so he had no choice. Dude dumped it in my inbox that he had to read it to others. Yeah. It's just weird. But I'm going to tell you something. Here's what I like on what's going on.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Here's what I like what's going on. So think about how many whistleblowers there are and how many people that I talked the other day, me and a guy who was Matt's friend, Special Forces, send me a message on LinkedIn. Okay. Okay. And I called him. I personally called him and we spoke. Okay. Okay.
PBD Podcast

And he said, Matt and I were, I'm not going to give his name, Matt and I were both stationed in Germany together.

And because he's saying that there's no way in the world this guy's capable of doing something like this. So I called him, and I said, hey, are you willing to talk? He says, oh, no way. I'm not willing to talk.

So he's there during that time saying something like this. This past weekend, Sean Ryan's podcast happens. The drone event happens on December 19th. We have a John Ferguson that comes on. If you remember John Ferguson that we had on, he was a fellow that came up talking about drones.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And he did not want to sit down and talk about anything. But what I do like about what's going on with this is that normally these types of stories will be sent to CNN or MSNBC or Fox or whoever. How many of them get filtered out? And it's like, yeah, no, we're not going to cover it. Nowadays, podcasters, they're going to screw it up sometimes. It's going to be like, oh, shit, we mishandled that.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Yeah, that's going to happen. It's going to happen a lot of times because they're like, oh, my God, I can't believe I have this source. What if this, this, this, this? Okay, okay, no, this one was wrong. Great. But guess what? What if two out of the ten are right and it saves 100,000 people's lives or 3,000 people's lives? Guess what? That's progress.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
A form of that where there's relationship with people and other podcasters where this type of intel is being shared. I'm actually very optimistic about the fact that this is happening because
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
and Sean Ryan seems like a lot of people, well, this guy's a, he was a government agent under Barack Obama, and, you know, also Sarah Adams, both of them are under this, and, you know, they're intelligent, they're trained under those guys.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Does that mean, like, if I was a soldier while the president was somebody, and politically I'm automatically, this is the part where you have to be very, very careful with how quickly people get involved You know, success happens somehow to get some exposure. You're going to get targeted and a mob's going to come after you. Everybody has to be aware of that. Anyways. Great podcast today.

He runs a drone company, and he says, look, I'm not quite sure what's going on with these drones, but my guesstimation is there are some missing nuclear weapons. And maybe these drones in Jersey and New York that are following through a bed minister, maybe there's more motives there. Well, that gets the attention of Joe Rogan. Joe Rogan retweets the video. This video gets a lot of views.
PBD Podcast

We have him on. He gets on here. That gets a lot of views. He's all over the news talking about this. And he's just saying, I'm just a drone guy that's been in the business. He's been in 80-plus countries, worked with a couple different heads of states in different countries in the Middle East. I get a call from him, and we start talking on Saturday.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And he says, there's something I want to share with you. Remember when I told you the source and all this other stuff? I said, yes. He says, well, here's what has come to us. This is the guy that saw the nuclear weapon in Eastern Europe, and he doesn't want to give his name, but I want you to talk to him. All right. So it's Saturday. I'm driving back with the kids. And then I get home.

So Dylan's on the other side watching the game. We're on there for an hour talking to the source. I don't have a name. His name was given was John Brown. And there is – I don't see a face.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
The only thing I see is the audio. And he's saying, look – Yeah, I made a prediction that this was going to happen and that's going to happen and this is going to happen. And all of that stuff came true on the assassination attempt. Something's going on and they're trying to have an attack on January 9th, the 19th or the 20th. Ninth is the Carter funeral that Trump said is going to be there.

Nineteenth is whatever the victory parade. And then the 20th is this. I said, stop it. I said, who are you? I can't give you my name. I said, you lose credibility if you don't do that. And we talked for an hour. I'm like, look, just sleep on it. We get stories like this all the time. I'm not interested, but we'll talk to some of the people that we know.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
And it sounds like some of the people already know. I said, well, no, I'm telling you, you got to see this. So I'm like, look, it's good. We're good. Don't worry about it. Conversation ends. Next day, Tony calls me and he says, he's on a flight. He's in Florida. I said, what? He's already on his way to Florida. I said, you've got to be kidding me. He says, no.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Okay, so flight's booked on his way to Florida. Yesterday is Monday. All day, my Mondays, Tom, you know my Mondays. My Mondays, I don't have a minute break on Monday. Like my first breathing that I get is around 6 o'clock. And not even lunch, I'm just, boom, 6 o'clock, right? So eventually it comes that he is downstairs in the office. I can't give you the name of this person.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
He comes into the office. We sit down. We start talking. And he's telling me all these things. I'm telling you, why would I lie to you? I said, why would you lie to me? I don't know your name. I don't know who you are. I don't know the credibility. I don't know any of this stuff.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
Anyways, long story short, after two hours of talking to me, he is, you know, just think about an Eastern European man, and he starts showing me things on his computer, very disturbing, some of the stuff he showed me. And then I said, look, finally, it was at a point, the whole team is waiting to see if we're going to do anything or not. I said, look, here's what it's come down to.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
If you don't tell me your name, I have to wrap this up. My kids are going to school the next day. It's their first day back from holidays. We got to wrap it up. So he's getting very uncomfortable at this time. So finally he says, he makes a couple phone calls, and he says, here is my name. And he shows me his ID. I think that's when he walked in, right? When he walked in and you saw him.
PBD Podcast
Trudeau Resigns, Skip Bayless Sued, DC On High Alert, Andrew Tate For PM | PBD Podcast | Ep. 529
So give me the ID. I look at the name. I'm like. So I go online. I'm like, ah. interviews with him from 15 years ago on YouTube, 10 years ago, 9 years ago, 7 years ago, 6 years ago, 3 years ago, having nothing to do with politics. All to do with technology and engineering and chips. That's the business he's in. Nothing to do with that. So then I'm like, so finally I said, okay.

The future looks bright.

A little bit of grant, a little bit of guarantee, and then you have everybody else. The question becomes, why are taxpayers, why are we just giving it away? Why can't we get the money back? Why can't he go and negotiate on behalf of Americans? Why can't Trump go and say, here's the things that I want. If you don't give it to us, we're not supporting you anymore. Why not? And by the way,
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
If Kir is comfortable giving more money to them, go ahead and do it. You guys got money, go give it to them. We don't need to do it. If you feel so compelled, anybody in the EU should be more interested in the protection of Ukraine than U.S. U.S. should be interested in Canada and Mexico. Everybody else in the EU, pay up. You go do it. We understand. We support your decision.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
But you ought to risk that money with your taxpayers, not us. So, Tom, you're making a very good point with that. Julian, what do you think about this? Can I—one more?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
All right. So maybe, listen, maybe we'll set that up. Is there like a little bit of sexual chemistry there?

Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Zero? He's got zero. No. Well, listen, I can tell you anytime we have interesting guests on, whether it's him, I can have a list of 20 guys that we've had on. How could you? I cannot believe this, and I cannot believe that, and I'll tell everybody every time. There you go. Be patient. We're going to do many more of these. You're not going to like them. We're going to talk to people.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
U.S., Why would we not, is what you're asking?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Yeah. So to me, kind of what we talked about last night is the following. If a company hires a new CEO, okay, John has been running this company as a CEO for the last 10 years. I get hired. The new CEO comes in. They bring new executive team. The first thing the new CEO does is they go through all the contracts that we have to try to see a way to negotiate.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
So if I'm an insurance CEO and I go to another company and I have experience and I know all these carriers, I'll go to a company, I'll look at all their contracts, and I'll say, hey, I'm sorry, this carrier only pays you guys $130? Yeah. Only 130%? Yes. Okay. And you guys have so much premium, you're sending 40 million a year. Why are you guys only getting 130?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I was getting 145 when I was only sending them 20 million a year. Are you kidding me? No. This is ridiculous. Let me call them up. Hey, Johnny. Yes. Is it true that you guys only pay us 130 points and we give you 40 million a year? Yes. You got 24 hours to bump that up to $150 million so I make my money back of the last six years for the company or else we're no longer doing business with you.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
That premium is going somewhere else. That's what the new CEO is doing. Now, the previous CEO, why did he do $130 million? I don't know. What were the side favors? Was he invited to events? Was he invited to... I don't know all those side deals. I was not in the negotiating room. So to me... It's not just about why wouldn't we back them up. You think Trump wants a world war?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You think Trump wants people to go out there, another World War III happening under his watch? He doesn't want that. He doesn't want any of that stuff.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
No, I wouldn't do it that way. I've already given you money. Taxpayers have already given you money. What are we getting for reassurance? For what we've given you the last three and a half, four years. What is our reassurance? Not yours. Look, so think about the gated community you live in. Okay. If in your gated community...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
There's a, what do you call it, when every month people get, no, there's a meeting that they have. Tom, what is that called?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
HOA meeting, so that I never go to. But let's just say there's this homeowner association that Jennifer goes to, right? And then she gives me an update. Oh, my gosh. So these homeowner association meetings. Imagine we go in there and one of the guys says, hey, the security we got is 85 years old. He's letting people in. We had another car that was robbed.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I think we've got to hire a new security firm, and the guys have to be former military, licensed to carry, and we have to pay that. To do that, currently we're paying this guy $17 an hour. To do that, it's going to be $32 an hour. That means all of us, instead of paying $600 a month, it's going to go to $900 a month. And then everybody looks around and says, you know what? I'm with it.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You don't like them, you have the right to have your opinion. We're going to have the conversation, and it can go from there. What we will do is we will have that combo. My biggest thing was when... People are even afraid of hearing the other side. For you to not be able to decipher for yourself and say, I disagree, I agree with that part.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Let's do it. Great. Now, why should we all care about that homeowner association? Because we all live in that gated community. Now trip out on this. You ready? Yeah. Let's say another gated community in Fort Lauderdale that is 3,000 miles away from where you live, okay, comes up to you and says, hey, guys, check this out. Our community is not safe. We're getting robbed.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
We want you to contribute to our homeowner association to make our gated community safer. And you're sitting there saying, wait a minute, what did you say? Yeah, we want your money to protect our gated community. So what does this mean? Wait a minute. I'm already protecting my gated community. What is our gated community? It's called U.S., Canada, Mexico.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
It's called we spend 3.4% of our annual budget. Mexico spends 0.7%. Canada spends 1.1% of their GDP military expenditure. We're already making our gated community safer. Why do we need to make Ukraine's gated community safer? That's the question. And Trump's asking the right question, because if that's the case, you should be paying more money than everybody else. Not us.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
We're not on there all the time. We'll contribute a little bit. But number one, more than anybody else with nothing.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Okay, so you're assuming 100% of all the money that was given is all military weapons. There's AIDS, there's humanitarian aid, there's cash, there's different things that was given. What that number of the $113 billion or whatever the number is, $140 billion, we don't know. We want to know that.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
That's why I would love to see the two of you guys one day chopping it up. Anyways, guys, stories to cover here today. Few things. One. Mexico-Canada tariffs will be implemented due to unacceptable drug flows, Trump says. The moment he starts announcing it, the Dow dropped 650 yesterday, just so you guys know. So the market is panicking a little bit.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
So the claims of the kind of money, he's making the claims of what they're doing, what they're coming through, all of that stuff that people talk about, whether it's true or not, I don't think we'll ever find out. If we do, it's because someone's going to come out and someone's getting killed. If something happens to Zelensky, that's the part.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
In regards to Russia, let's talk, if we're talking about the military-industrial complex, that these guys want all these contracts to be able to sell more weapons. No problem. We talked about this again last night. The one number no one talks about. What is Putin in the way of? Think about it. What is Putin in the way of? The one thing nobody talks about.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Rob, can you Google which country has the most natural resources, okay? And folks, if you're listening to this, I don't want you to say anything. I want them to guess. Shocking. Don't show it. Oh, you showed it already. Can you guess how many people, how much money of natural resources Russia has that Putin is in the way of other companies going in there and having access to this.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You know what the number is? You think it's 10 trillion? You think it's 20 trillion, 22 trillion, 23 trillion? Rob, can you pull up what the number is with Russia? $75 trillion is what they have.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
By the way, can you pull up the ranking of number one to number two to number three to number four to number five? Ranking of countries by natural resources. My natural resource, if there's a leader's bulletin. Weird. Look it. We're at $45 trillion. They're nearly 2x us. Go to the next one, Rob. Saudi Arabia is $34. All that oil. Russia is $75 trillion. Canada, $33. Brazil, $22.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Where is Venezuela? Where is everybody else? You're talking about $75 trillion. Where is China? He's in the way of somebody wanting to get access to that right there. So look at Canada. Iran has $27 trillion. That's crazy. China has $23 trillion. Brazil has $22 trillion. Australia has $20 trillion. Iraq has $16 trillion. Venezuela, that's like oil, oil, oil, is sixth. of what Russia is.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
These people that are these big behemoth companies like the Black Rocks, the State Streets, the Vanguards, they're like, hey, man, we want to get access to that. We want to do business there. There's a guy in the way saying you can't. They have to get rid of that guy. This was the same case with Iran. Shah was in the way. They got to get rid of that guy. They got to get rid of this guy.

So Putin's not playing ball. I'm not sitting here telling you he's an angel and all this other stuff. I do want to play one clip to get your reaction on it. Okay. You've done work with Bill and Hillary Clinton, and you had a very good experience with them.

I would as well.

Bloomberg does a story talking about the fact that car prices are poised for $12,000 surge on Trump's new tariffs. Hexit warned of military action if Mexico fails to meet Trump's border demands. Trump promises to pardon Pete Rose. Pete Rose? Are you kidding me? The Pete Rose, like, all-time hitter. Pistol Pete. Unfortunately, I like the way he said it.

Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
So that's Bill Clinton. So do you trust Bill Clinton is telling the truth? Do you think he's telling a lie? You know what you said last night that was so interesting about you? This is why I love you so much. You said such a unique thing last night. We're sitting there. It's very obvious you're not a Tate fan.

Okay, I won't tell the whole context of the conversation because it's private. I don't mind at all. No, no, no. But when I was talking about different individuals and we talked about the different individuals and I said, which one of these names do you think would be most honest with you? Okay, I don't think it's necessary for me to give the other names. But you said, even though...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I don't agree with him, and I can't stand him. I think he would tell me the truth, even though I would disagree with him. Right? You said that yesterday.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
So this doesn't mean they're boys. This doesn't mean they're kicking it, going to Casa de Angelo tonight. This doesn't mean they're going to go have sushi and talk hockey, Russia, and stuff like that. No, he's just telling you, I'm going against a boss that keeps his word. Maybe that's why Trump and Putin get along and Trump and Zelensky don't get along.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Maybe that's because Zelensky is playing games and Putin is just kind of like, this is who I am. What do you want to do? So to me, I don't know. I'm not in it. I don't talk to any of these guys. I don't have a relationship with any of these guys. I'm just a business guy that's been in weird rooms at a much, much, much smaller scale that you watch people playing games.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And then you have to position everybody and say, what is that guy trying to do? What does he want from this deal? How is this guy benefiting? What does he fear if this deal gets done? Those are the things I pay attention to. And in this scenario, I think Putin's in a way of $75 trillion, and the money people are like, you guys think $400 billion is money in Ukraine to rebuild that place? Shit.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
This other country's got $75 trillion. How the hell do we get that kind of money, access to that? I think that's what people want, that they don't have access to right now.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I wish he could have experienced being alive to go to the Hall of Fame. That's a shame that that never happens. But can you imagine he wants to pardon him? Trump rips Zelensky for calling into Ukraine war very, very far away. Worst statement that could have ever been made. Zelensky won't apologize to Trump. Because clash, not good for both sides. Not good for both sides.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I'm going to come to you, Rob. Can you do me a favor? Pull up a poll from Guardian, that Thomas Sowell's Twitter account, whoever runs that account. We've spoken multiple times. Great job running that account. Rob, it's in the notes section that I have. Okay, it's fine. Go where you're going. It's fine. Go right there. Go lower, lower, lower, lower.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Some of these guys tweet so often that you have to go so low until you find it. So then go to the notes section, Rob, that I have. Go to the notes section. If you go there, you'll see a poll. This is a poll asking how people, okay, in... EU, most Europeans, how they feel about Ukraine. And it's such an interesting thing because it's two separate polls right there. OK, zoom in.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
So zoom in first to read the top. Most Europeans feel Ukraine is not getting enough Western support. OK, but watch before we go to the next one. Are the current measures against Russia and aid given to Ukraine enough to prevent a Russian victory? Red is not enough. Light grays don't know. Blue is enough, more than enough. Look at that. 66% say not enough. Denmark, Sweden, Spain.

Right? When we got on the call, we're like, what a great dinner. Amazing. It's like, you know what it was? It didn't take long to realize there's a connection. It's not an act. Nobody was acting. But let me tell you. If we had five other people at the table, they would have been so annoyed by us.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
There could have been people at the table that would have been so annoyed by us because like attracts like.

You're wasting it, right? But the other part that's very interesting with this, and I love what Jamie said. I absolutely love. Jamie had the luxury of being the executive assistant of Sandy Weil at American Express. Let me say this one more time. Sandy Weil, the former CEO of Citigroup, when he was at American Express as an executive, Jamie was his assistant. He was his EA. Let me say this again.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Jamie Dimon was the EA to Sandy Wiles. Sandy Wiles was one of the biggest deal makers of all time. The guy was a badass mother you know what. He was a beast. And then the issue happened when He gave Jamie a promotion, and Jamie started doing really well. Jamie was able to shadow somebody that was a killer. He learned from somebody. He watched someone. It's like, oh, my God.
PBD Podcast

So this is what it takes to compete at the highest. You are part of the luckiest community if you ever work under somebody where you get a chance to see what it really looks like to compete at the highest level.

She didn't even say, I don't do dessert. She says, I don't do sugar. What do you mean you don't do sugar? Who talks like that, right? That's a standard. But the main point is the following. In life, we all have a price to pay. You either pay it now or you're going to pay it later.

So to the Gen Zers that are bitching about Jamie Dimon and a boss they're working at that's driving the hell out of them, let me give you two prices. You could not pay the price now.

PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And that massive price, you know what that price is? Here's what the massive price is. Let me paint a picture to you and see if you like this or not. You're 62 years old. You got three kids. You have six grandkids.

Those kids of yours for Christmas have a choice between coming to you to spend Christmas and Thanksgiving with you or the in-laws of the family that they married because those guys made better decisions.

PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You're going to sit there in your 60s and 70s in bed and say, how come our kids are not with us? I wish they were with us, babe. Or you'll be by yourself saying, man, I wish they was with us. That's a painful price. The price of working 60 to 80 hours a week in your 20s and 30s, give me a flipping break. Are you kidding me? That's the price you're bitching about? Don't worry.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Wait till that age is in their 60s. Then call me back. Manect me by that time. And tell me how you feel about the price that you were not willing to pay. That price on the back end should scare the crap out of everybody. Should scare the crap out of everybody. When it comes down to alcohol, drugs, health, relationship, finances, all of that stuff, career. You can party all you want.

Tomorrow, tariffs, 25% on Canada and 25% on Mexico, and that'll start. So they're going to have to have a tariff. So what they have to do is build their car plants, frankly, and other things in the United States, in which case they have no tariffs. In other words, you build, and this is exactly what Mr. Wei is doing, by building here.
PBD Podcast

Otherwise, they'll build, if they did them in Taiwan to send them here, they'll have... 25% or 30% or 50% or whatever the number may be someday, it'll go only up. But by doing it here, he has no tariff, so he's way ahead of the game.

Not all of them. Some of the countries that he's doing are reciprocal tariffs. But just so you know, after the announcement that was made this morning, Rob, if you want to pull up the story that Apple just released, Canada, I think, just put a tariff on 155 different countries.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
15 companies, some industries, there's a, let me just tell you what, literally, this just happened this morning, right now, as this is coming out. Canada put 25% tariffs on 105 U.S. goods. And you have China added 10 U.S. companies to its unreliable entity list and 15 companies to its export control list, primarily targeting defense and intelligence firms.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And China is now filing a lawsuit within the World Trade Organization against the U.S. over the new 10% tariff. So they're going to go back and forth right now. They're going to be doing that. And then you're going to see who's going to be able to, you know, last the longest time until something flips. Trust me, what Trump's not going to want... is he is pushing in the way I'm processing this.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
He's pushing the pressure now because he doesn't want the pressure to be pushed. Six months, nine months before midterms. He does not want that. When midterms comes and he loses the control, let's just say, because the market's not good, he doesn't want that. So whatever strong positions he wants to take, he better take it right now. He will not be able to do it next year. That's all it is.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556

And Rob, go to the next one. And look what else he said he's going to add because people were wondering. And obviously, Bitcoin and Ethereum as other valuable cryptocurrencies will be at the heart of the reserve. I love Bitcoin and Ethereum. Okay. So, you know...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
He does this, the crypto community, if all of a sudden he puts $100 billion into crypto and buys XRB, they diversify it in a way they're going to be doing that, that's going to be a very interesting move. I mean, the Bitcoin conference is going to be insane because finally the U.S. has a crypto reserve. So you're right on what you're saying so far, but remember...

When you're trying to change the way people think and you're trying to change the way relationships are internationally, you have to do it right off the bat because two years is going to come in no time, midterms. And that's exactly what he's doing. We won't know if these things are working properly or not till probably end of summer, in my opinion. I'm saying September, October.

I think it's going to go that long, in my opinion, for us to really see if it's going to be good or not. AOC asks NPR, host. to clarify the problem when he asks about migrant crisis voters. Go ahead, Rob.

And so.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
All right. So while they're having this exchange about immigration, right, at the same time, California is waiting for Harris' decision in the governor race. While Tim Walz is saying he may consider running for, what do you call it, president in 2028. So California is sitting there saying, is this Harris thing going to happen? Is it not going to happen?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You know, is the race something that, you know, because Newsom's going to step aside with him starting a podcast, and maybe this is a chance for Harris to get in. Is she going to be vocal about it when she was there the other day?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
The reason why I went from AOC to Harris to Waltz to, you know, what we just talked about with Fetterman is, who is actually going to be the face of 2020 for the Democratic Party? Jillian, you're... You're you know, you've spent time with a lot of folks from the left and even, you know, you're recently kind of been in a different place. Who do you think? And maybe if you were an advisor hired St.

Tom, you think it's going to be a usual suspect? I just typed it in right now just to see. I don't know what Google searches, what they're doing. The other day at CPAC, the leader was J.D. Vance, and number two was Steve Bannon for CPAC for Republicans, right? Steve Bannon was two behind J.D. Vance. Okay, so J.D. Vance, he became a star. But on the left...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
You see Newsom, you see Whitmer, you see Shapiro, you see Westmore, you see Buttigieg. Who else? Is it going to be a usual suspect or is it going to be somebody else?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
That looks like a little tea cup.

All right. I'll be here if you need me. Let's get into it. Let's get into it. Let's get into it. Let's start off, Rob, with the whole Zelinsky-Trump issue, which got a little bit out of control. So we all saw the clip.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
That's what I was talking about. Tom wasn't with us for about five minutes.
PBD Podcast

I thought we fed you oysters last night. We brought, like, good vitamin food.
PBD Podcast

Watch this here. Rob, this is what you pulled up. Rob has this here. Harris at the top. What side is this, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
From Miami Vice? Wow. I'll get an 80s reference, not a 40s reference. But do you know who the Crockett is? Is that the Crockett? Is that Jamie Crockett?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
of the exchange between the two that the moment Zelensky started threatening that hey you have some things that you have to worry about as well and that wasn't a good look when he went there we've seen this clip Rob if you can fast forward to maybe 30 seconds when he tries to say things about President Trump and he's not right there that's good watch this clip here I'm sure you've seen it but we'll repeat it go ahead Rob

It's a 0.3, 0.4% type of a thing. Vinny, what do you think?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I think the part to look at that was the most impressive of what happened to America, out of all the data points that everybody was shown, well, let me tell you, Pennsylvania this, well, let me tell you about this, and let me tell you about this. You know what's the most shocking data? The fact that every state in America became more Republican.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
But out of all the states that became more Republican, two states became more Republican than any other states. You know what those two states were? California and New York. That was the weirdest state. You're like, what? Remember that whole thing with the pink thing? You're like, are you serious? So I don't know.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Yeah, I mean, you know what I would do? If Newsom is coming out to the day to announce that he's running for president, that day, if Trump's camp really wanted to pull off a great troll, get a hold of the DJ, influence the DJ to play a walk-up song, and the song is by Starship, We Built This City, right?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
To say, you effed this city, right? Change it to burnt. Or we burnt this city, right?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Gavin Nelson's been churning. That's a good one. So the point is, I mean, dude, the part that with Americans today with social media, the world has become like Dory from Finding Nemo.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Hi, what's your name? I'm Patrick. That's so true. Hi. Hi. Oh, COVID never happened. Hey, hi. Right? So this thing that people are so quick to forget what we forgot about the essential, non-essential. Guys, we got to take care of Joey Michaels.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Right? You know how many people were getting the non-essential? Remember Gerard? I think Gerard got the tattoo. Didn't Gerard get a tattoo, non-essential? Oh, yeah, I think he did. People were like, dude, screw you. Like, the part, the biggest part is anybody that's in the documentary business, anybody that's in, like, the people that do a great job. There's so many of these guys. Phenomenal job.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
All of those documentary people have to make sure Take five companies, have five different documentaries to produce, and launch them all in 26, and then one in 28. Just to remind everybody what will happen, because they're going to forget. And that's the biggest thing.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
God bless. You don't know that. God bless. God bless. You will not have war. Don't tell us what we're going to feel. We're trying to solve a problem. Don't tell us what we're going to feel. I'm not telling you. Because you're in no position to dictate that. Remember this. You're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel. We're going to feel very good.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
If you create a documentary about California fires and what led to it, I guarantee you, and you launch it in 2027, that documentary is directed to Newsom because he's going to run. Then you run a documentary. If you intentionally time these things to make people smarter, everyone's forgetting about what happened. Like Michael Jordan, you know what's static?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I have a notes section in my phone of purely one thing, and I collect Michael Jordan debates
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
things okay and look at this if i find it it's like you know young boys collect pictures of you know whatever pictures it is yeah for me it's that's a michael jordan kobe debate you know which one i just found check this one out crazy i rob i want to send this to you just to play it just so you see because people forget about who michael jordan really was right they forget
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I saw the stat there that I'm like, holy shit, what this guy did. The question is, how many 50-win teams... that people eliminate in the playoffs, okay? 50 win teams, all right? They have Michael on the list. They have Kobe on the list. They have Magic on the list. They have Tim Duncan on the list. They have Larry Bird on the list. They have LeBron James on the list.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And everybody wants to say LeBron James is the greatest, right? Rob, can you do me a favor and pull up this picture I just found this, right? Look at this. Kobe eliminated 25 50-win teams. Michael 20, Duncan 18, Magic 13, Bert 10. LeBron has 12. And LeBron's played twice as many seasons nearly as Michael Jordan. He's at 12. Kobe, 25. Why is this important? People forget Michael.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
They forget who Michael was. They forget what this guy did, right? So everybody's just today, they think about LeBron, LeBron, LeBron. We have to make sure documentary folks produce the best documentaries reminding us what happened to California, reminding us what happened to COVID, because by 2027, 2028, a lot of people are going to forget. Okay, let me go to the next story.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
This next story is very important. And Jillian, I kind of need your help with this one here because we've got a lot of guys here and we kind of want a little bit of perspective. So why men can't help falling in love faster. They screw this thing up.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Maybe let's tear this guy apart if the argument's terrible. Australian National University researcher. That's the qualifier. Australian. I mean, they know what's going on over there. Found men fall in love faster and more often than women, averaging 2.6 times versus 2.3 times.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And saying I love you a month earlier, per a study of 800 people ages 18 to 25, the team notes falling in love one month earlier provides men with a greater opportunity to use romantic love, to promote courtship with men nearly twice as likely to fall before a relationship starts. Driven by a fitness landscape favoring quantity of potential mates, women take longer.

Who talks like this? You know what? You don't talk like that to ladies, right? But do you agree? Tom, do you agree with what Jillian's saying? And then I'm going to come to Adam.

You're gambling with the lives of... So, while this is happening, President Trump comes out on Truth Social and says that an end to Ukraine war with Russia was very, very far away, writing, this is the worst statement that could have been made by Zelensky, and America will not put up with it much longer. It is what I was saying.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Oh, really?

So four. How many girls?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
This guy doesn't want there to be peace as long as he has America's backing and Europe in the meeting they had with Zelensky. stated flatly that they cannot do the job without the U.S., probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of show of strength against Russia. What are they thinking? After a fiery Oval Office clash, Trump said, you're either going to make a deal or we're out.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I love you too, Tom. Tom doesn't love me yet, which goes back to the point.

Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
Guess what? It wasn't public relations. I had a lot of private relationships that if you walk next to me publicly, it's a statement to the market. So I was very selective. So if you're with me publicly, I'm telling the world you're mine. This is a serious thing going on. But if it's private, like friends would go out there like, hey, man, who's this girl? I'm like.

Oh, same night. What are we talking about? No, it was a minute. It was a minute. Because we went through the book that we read. There was a whole process. And I was at a place, because I was dating four girls at the same time, and I was telling all of them, I'm not being promiscuous. I'm trying to look for a wife. There was four girls I liked, and I was talking to all of them.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
And if we're out, you'll fight it out. I don't think it's going to be very pretty. So that being said, Rob, Yesterday, stories trending that President Trump ends the aid to Ukraine. And we saw that. I don't know if you have that or not, Rob. Where he flat out says we're ending the aid to Ukraine. Is this the clip, Rob?

This is very public. This is very, very public. It was very open. It wasn't something that I'm, like, you know, beating around the bush. It was like, hey, I'm not ready.

So here's kind of where I'm going to this. All right, so let me tell you where I'm going with this. So then the story says, let me just tell you, that Jelaine Maxwell considering seeking presidential pardon and da-da-da-da-da from Trump, she's seeking this. She's seeking pardon, which guess what? If she's prompting the Sikh... I'm liking that, and I'll tell you why.

Tell me what you think about this. Oh, my gosh. Okay, so you know how the question is, hey, we're going to go find if the gold is at Fort Knox. By the way, do you know since the inception of Fort Knox, it cost $540,000 to build. They built it in one year. And after they built it, they moved roughly 400, 50% of our gold is at Fort Knox that's hidden there.

They have security on top of security on top of security that's in this place. Do you know since then, the first time till today, how many times they've opened it up to be seen? Three times. Only three times. In 70 years, that's only been three times.
PBD Podcast

80 years, only three times people have gone in to see if the actual gold is there, and no one's ever touched and audited to see if all the gold is there, right? So what does Trump say? Trump, and you know why they chose this place? They bought 40 acres of land. They wanted it to be in a place that doesn't have earthquake, no fault line. Fault line. No, nothing like that.

They do get hurricane and tornado in this area because it's in Kentucky, right, Rob? It's like 20 miles outside of Louisville, if I'm not mistaken. Very interesting thing about Fort Knox.

When Sammy the Bull did his deal, they allowed him to do facial surgery to reconstruct the way he looked so the audience wouldn't recognize him.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Just to be fair to Adam, a lot of people were saying that it came out that he was an FBI informant. His story came out a few days ago. But this has been popular since 2018. These claims have been made. Yeah. Masad is when I had his brother on and we spoke. It was very fishy, Rob. You remember this when we had the two-hour podcast with Mark Epstein.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
What was the fishy part? It's very obvious. There's something very weird going on with the connections and the support and the people that they had. I don't disagree with that, by the way. It just hasn't been concluded yet. You know when... You know when you think about certain people who joined the Army, who was the football player that joined the military? Pat Tillman.

They're going to be like, you know what? F it. I'm going to go and run for office because I have to find out what's going on there. There's going to be some people that will do that. Who that is, I don't know. Because I don't know if that is in Trump's top five list. I don't know if it's in his top ten list. I really don't think it is. I don't think it should be. He never ran on it.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy Oval Office Meeting, Trump Tariffs In Effect, Epstein Files Update | PBD Podcast | Ep. 556
I don't think it's a top five or a top ten list. I think it's something that some of his audience wants, just like the crypto community, this community, that community. But I don't know if it's on his top ten list. We'll see. You know, Cash Patella is supposed to be the one that's like, hey, I'm telling you, Glenn Beck is here in two weeks.

It's 1.9%. Okay. Okay? Now they're at, what, 20%? It was... Now they're at 17, 18, 19, 20%. You'll see a number there that says it was around 1.9% in 1987. So it's a very small number.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So today they're at 19.4%. Yeah. Now, U.S. in 1987... U.S. in 1987 was at 28.5%. Can you do U.S. GDP, global GDP, global share of GDP 1987?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Look at where we were at. Look at where we were at. Zoom in a little bit. It should be 28.7%. Look at that. 1987, we're at 28.7%, U.S. That's when Reagan gave the speech. Go to U.S. global GDP today. Just change that and just put 2024. Probably lower. Watch this. Percentage. Zoom in. No, it should be percentage. Percentage, we are at 25.9% today.

Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So China's up big time and we're significantly lower. We're down 3% since then. And China went from a small number that they had. I don't know what their exact number was. We'll pull it up right now, Rob, if you can find it. To us being, we went down, China went up. So one could say at the moment, Reagan was right. But one could make the argument to say 37, 38 years later,
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Can you ask what it is today? China's today? What is China's percentage of global GDP today? So they went from 1.6%, 1.9% to 19%. It should be like 20%, 19% or 20%. You're right. 19.3% today. So China 10Xed in 38 years, and we dropped 10%. So guess what? It may have seemed like a noble thing to do at the time, and we all love Reagan. What an incredible man.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
But economically, we have strengthened everybody else while U.S. got weaker. By percentage, is that how we're supposed to play the game? Isn't that a philosophy of socialism? Strengthen others but weaken yourself? I don't know in any game that that's the right philosophy. I'm not sitting here trying to criticize a policy that the president came back from 38 years ago.

15% comes from outside. Say that 15% is whatever, $20 billion. You're just making up a number. 5% of that $20 billion he's saying is Canada and China, Canada and Mexico. Are you saying five, meaning each of them have a third of them?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Five of the total 15%. So it's not between the two of them, they're 10 out of the 15, because where's China? Where's everybody else? It's not what you're thinking.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Okay, so to me it's a couple different things. Okay, for me with China and Mexico, this is the craziest thing. All right, U.S., you know how much we spend on our military every year? Trillion dollars. Trillion dollars. You know what percentage... of our military expenditure, from our GDP is our military expenditure.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Okay, it's not that, but watch this, Rob. Do me a favor, pull up military expenditure by countries. This is very important that when you look at this, this is, no, go back, go back all, and go on that LinkedIn right there. Yeah, go on Wikipedia. This is very important. And before you look at this, here's what I want you to think about. Do you remember when he exposed the NATO concept?

And everybody was like, hey, why are we giving more money than you guys are? You should be more interested in this. I started looking at this and digging, and I'm like, wait a minute. This doesn't make any sense to me. So watch. Go to U.S. global percentage GDP. A percentage of GDP, probably 3%. Well, you just saw it. It says 3%. So go on that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I got you. So click on that. So watch. Guess who's the lowest? Mexico. Mexico. They only spent 0.7% of their GDP on military. Why? Because America's their neighbor. We offer protection. They spent $11.8 billion on military. That's it. Mexico doesn't have a military. They don't have a military. And look who's number seven on that list. Canada, 1.3%. You don't put money into the military.

We spend 9.16. Okay? Billion. But 3.4%. What would happen if even Greece... Greece spends more money on their military than Mexico and Canada combined times two. Think about how embarrassing that is. Now, go back to... Go flip it, Rob, if you could. Yeah, so go back to the lowest... Okay, Mexico. Watch this. What would happen...
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
They're saving $48 billion just because they know military of U.S. is strong, so no one's going to attack them. Then watch this. Look at Canada. Canada's at 1.3%. If Canada wanted to invest the same amount of money in the military as we do for expenditure, and they went to 3.4%, guess where they would be at? That's 2x, 2.5x. So that's going to be $54 billion. Add another 13, $67 billion.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
$67 billion is an additional $40 billion. So these guys are saving $40 billion, and Mexico is saving $48 billion because they're relying on U.S. 's $3.4 billion. Cry me a flipping river. Keep the 25%. Keep it. Keep it for four years. Let them realize, hey, you want us to provide protection? No more. You're a neighbor. Spend the same amount of money as well. You buy some security.

So to me, now somebody may say, well, it's military-industrial complex and all this other stuff. Build a bit of a stronger military. When's the last time you thought about Mexico or Canada as a strong military? Never. When's the last time you thought about them being a superpower in the military? You don't think about them. This, to me, makes me think you are not worried about your border.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So if you're not worried about your border, of course you're not going to be sitting there thinking about what you need to be doing. So I'm all about keeping the tariffs. on them or telling them, strengthen your damn military. Guess what?

So for us, I think this is a form of socialism to please the world... I don't think – I don't know about that. I'm not fully there.

We're not going to have any more of our kids dying because of drugs and fentanyl, and we're just not going to be doing that. You don't get your act together, we're done.

Costco teamsters reach tentative deal, even though at the same time Costco decides to raise $30 an hour for non-union employees, leaving 18,000 union members waiting.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Their non-union employees, leaving 18,000 union members waiting. They're like, wait a minute, who's getting a bigger raise? The non-union folks are getting paid more than you. But that's not fair. Well, then don't leave the union, right?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Anyways, Costco announced that all the employees of its non-union stores will get a raise just the day before employees at its 50 and others local locations go on a strike. Hourly pay for non-union members at the Costco pay scale will get an hour raise to $30.20 per hour with a dollar raise coming to next two years afterwards.

to extremely low turnover non-union employees at the low end of the pay scale will receive 50 cents an hour raise raising starting will pay 20 and additional benefits will be also granted including an extra week of vacation after 30 years and vacation for new workers in their first year tom tell us what's going on here with costco because i'm liking this move a little bit so first of all let's

PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
You know what I like? It's kind of like because unions have always been a throne and a lot of business owners, and they slow things down, and they convince the members. By the way, they started with noble ideas. Most unions started with a good idea, but then it became being ran by people that want control and power and influence. And you know what Costco is saying?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
We're going to overpay people that are non-union. You're non-union? I would do that. Let's just say we have 10,000 employees and line holdings a few years from now. And all of a sudden, we're going to go out there and be union. Really? Yeah, we're going to pay more to the non-union people. Really? Yes. If you're going to go there, I'm going to do this to these guys. Go ahead and do it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Because union is just difficult to work with. The speed of companies' growth sometimes, they get in the way, they make a lot of noise, they turn people against the company, they become about themselves. It becomes very challenging for them to do that. And by the way, look at the teachers' union. How are they? Look at the tenure. Who's that benefiting?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Look at all these other... How many... What are they doing? They're now big mobs that are controlled by the Democratic Party that are getting the votes. No, I'm not... I think I like what Costco is doing, and I would like to see other businesses... See this playbook, and when people say we're going to do this, no problem. I'm going to pay more for non-union than union.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I'm going to give better benefits to non-union than union. I'm going to give more vacation time to non-union than union. You want to do that? This is what we're going to be doing to the non-union people.

PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Yeah, there you go. Okay, let's go to the next story here. How about we do a sports story that's kind of interesting, okay? Mavs Luka Doncic headed to the Lakers on blockbuster trade for Anthony Davis, which is kind of very weird because while you hear this story, you're thinking LeBron knew, which people close to the story say LeBron had no clue.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543

And then Pierre Polivier comes out and also puts out a strong tweet about what he's going to be doing with U.S. and how this is unacceptable and how you can't say something like this.

And I think guys like taking less money just to stay with him because he took care of them.

You have the perfect example of what happened with Dirk. So I don't think this is a Cuban thing. I actually think he's probably shell-shocked that this has taken place. I think he sold 72% of it. I just think this guy's got a weight issue. And honestly, as an owner myself, I would be saying, dude, I'm done with players like this that are not taking care of them.

Complete switch from what he said earlier. He said, I just had a good call with the president. Canada's implementing our $1.3 billion border plan, reinforcing the border with new chapters, technology, and personnel.

So here's what we're doing. Can you see it? So moving forward, this is just for Tom. We're going to call this a Tom button. Tom gets to press the button without doing his eyes, and this thing turns red. And I know Tom wants to say something. That's so funny. And so it's just going to be like that.

Adam always wants to say something, and he'll have plus five minutes on it. After the shot clock. All right, so let's get into the next story here. Tom, everything good? Are you going to be okay?

Okay, so while he's saying this, watch this, folks. So rents for new low-income units will be dramatically lower than pre-fire market rates, significantly altering the area demographics.

Even Mark Cuban seems flabbergasted about the trade because he sold majority of the company to somebody else. We will talk about trades. We will talk about Pierre. We will talk about Justin.

California's. Yeah, you said Canada. California's.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Yeah. And by the way, while this is going on, there's another story about California. that I'm trying to find. There's another story on California about, if you have the pages, there's a story on California on the water where Trump says he opened California's water. Local officials say he nearly flooded them. Rob, I know we don't have a clip on this, but I'm going to go to the story to read.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
If you can find if there's any clips on this, here's what happened with Trump and California. President Trump declared a long-fought victory in California water disputes, claiming today 1.6 billion gallons, by the way. And in three days, it'll be 5.2 billion gallons.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
But local officials scrambled to prevent potential flooding after the Army courtroom engineers, citing Trump's executive order, attempted to release water from two reservoirs at maximum capacity with just an hour notice. I've been here 25 years, and I've never been given notice that quick. said Victor Hernandez, who oversees water management on Cahuilla River.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Trump falsely blamed the – falsely blamed. What story is this? Politico. The recent L.A. wildfires on California's water policy stopped it, insisting the state had mismanaged resources despite reservoirs being near historic levels. The reservoir is closed. There's no water in it a mile away from Palisades. This is Politico writing this? The Army Corps claimed water releases from Lake –
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
and Success Lake were meant to ensure California has water available to respond to the wildfires, though officials question how water 200 miles away could aid firefighting. Adam, your thoughts on this?

Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Okay, so Tom, your thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
The demution of value is a legal term used to calculate damages when a property or item loses value due to an accident, breach of contract, or other event.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I concur 100% with what Tom said. So the word is diminished. Demution? Is that how you say it, Tom? By the way, the ideas they're coming up with All I'm thinking and all I'm asking myself is how many of these ideas are going to force people in California to say, I'm done? What will it take for many of them to flip on policies or else this is going to continue?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
This is not going to stop anytime soon. By the way, CBS. News was forced to fork over edited Harris interview that Trump called out. They eventually had to force to send it over, and this is what the clip was. We've all remembered this, and I've got to read a little bit more about this. This was the clip, and I'll tell you more about what's going on here. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Okay. That is atrocious. That's right. So watch this. The first one should even say anything. CBS News owned by Paramount has been ordered to release the unedited transcript footage of Vice President Kamala Harris' October interview on 60 Minutes after President Trump sued the network for $10 billion, alleging purposeful editing to harm him from the November 6th election.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Trump-appointed FCC Chairman Brandon Carr responded... reopened the Center for American Rights complaint, which had been dismissed four days before Trump's second inauguration. CBS stated it would comply with the inquiry as we are legally compelled to do so. Trump took offense to Harris' response on the Israel-Hamas conflict, claiming CBS News doctored the footage to misrepresent him.

They faced the nation preview. showed Harris giving what was called a word salad answer, but 60 Minutes aired a different portion of her response. CBS News defended the edit, says the same question, same answer, but time constraints requires a cut. And meanwhile, staffers are irate over talk of Paramount settling. And so this whole thing that's taking place,
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
A CBS correspondent said we're helpless to whatever Shari and the bosses decide to do, but it's a real shame to think the news division is bargaining chip in the broader deal. CBS executive, including CEO Wendy McMahon and 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens, Billy Owens, not the old Golden State guy, but different Bill Owens, oppose a settlement fearing it would damage

PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
That's important. How did Trump learn that that wasn't the answer?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
But, Rob, how did they find out?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So, now, while we're doing this, let me read to you what others are saying about this. Wall Street Journal slams Trump's tariffs, the dumbest trade war in history. OK, and I got a clip I want to play to you guys that I don't think any one of you guys have seen. I want you to see it just to see how you react. Rob, there's no pages on today's one, two, three, four, five. This is going to be tough.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
I'm actually asking a serious question. How did they find out that that was not the answer? How was that leaked? I think someone internally must have said something. Someone internally had to have said something. They're like, by the way, she did not say that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Well, Tom, what's it say, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So that is not the 60 minutes model is they get as much content as they can to cut it for the segment that they can put it to sell airtime, right? That's what they have to do. That's the business model. That's not the part. But imagine I ask you a question, Vinny, with your background as a comedian. Some are questioning the fact that
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
you are not qualified to be the governor of the state of Florida. What do you say to those critics?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Okay. So then I say, Vinny. I love that answer. It's hilarious. We want to help you win. Can you change the answer and say a different kind of an answer? And matter of fact, we have a writer here that can give you some suggestions on ways to answer. Of course, we need it to be yours because you're a leader. Here's some ideas for you to consider.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
So you read them and you think, okay, so let me try one more time. Hey, Vincent, a lot of your critics are saying that your background as a former comedian
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
That makes sense. And that's exactly what we thought you were going to say. Thank you. I mean, that's kind of like, you know... That felt good. Can we keep that one? That's the part. That's kind of, in essence, hey, let's use something else. But go back to that clip.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
All right, so let's go to the next story here. Next story I want to go to is... The DNC, right? Ken Martin wins election as the next DNC chair. And a gun control young guy, David Hogg, was elected as the chair of the DNC, vice chair of the DNC. So they're trying to regroup and come out with a new strategy to win the young voters over. And this is their face. Go ahead, Rob. Play this clip.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
OK, so I got to go through the pages. What does it say? Wall Street. OK, there we go. So the Wall Street Journal editorial board calls President Trump's new tariff on Canada, Mexico, and China one of the dumbest trade wars in history, arguing that they will harm key U.S. industries rather than achieve their stated goals.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
The board dismissed White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitz's claim that the tariffs would curb drug smuggling, stating drugs have flowed into the U.S. for decades and will continue to do so as long as Americans keep using them. Neither country can stop it. What a position to take. Did you hear that, by the way? Let me read that to you folks one more time.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Well, I mean, the part like he almost, if you look at the way David Hogg was dressed, go back and see what David Hogg was dressed. He may not know this, but pull it up. Okay, do me a favor. Pull up a Charlie Kirk. Go to Charlie Kirk and go to images. Can you do me a favor? Just go Charlie Kirk and go to images. Okay. And go to the one on bottom left. No, go to bottom. No, go back.

So this is what Caroline Leavitt claims that the tariffs – not Caroline Leavitt. Drugs have flowed into the U.S. for decades and will continue to do so as long as Americans keep using them. Neither country can stop it. Nothing we can do about it to stop it. I don't know if I agree with that. The op-ed criticized Trump's – Broader trade philosophy stating Mr. Trump sometimes sounds as if the U.S.

Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Look at that. Go back again. Can you find a way to put them side by side? Like you got to zoom. You got to make the other one slightly smaller. Yeah, there you go. And then make the other one slightly smaller. Yeah, make that one also slightly smaller and put them right next to each other. There you go.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Tariffs, Mexico & Canada Cave, DOGE Shuts Down USAID, Zelenskyy's Missing Money | PBD Podcast | Ep. 543
Look at that. It's almost as if he said he's going to – look, he's trying to be Charlie Kirk. That's so funny. David Hogg is trying to be Charlie Kirk. But guess what? You either are or you're not. He's not. You can't be. Nope. The amount of hours Charlie put on going to campuses and making his arguments – His arguments are not gonna work. Matter of fact, it didn't work with a young Chinese.

So one, he tried to be Charlie Kirk. He's not going to be able to do it. Two, Lily Tang destroyed him. He should have stepped away a long time ago. But it is what it is. They're really trying. I think the way for them to go is going to be more a Caruso route. I think it's going to be more a logical route.

I think they try to go through Josh Shapiro, but some stories are coming out from Josh Shapiro from back in the days that's extremely disturbing. Look, I mean, they're going to try to find something.

Yeah, I mean, look, this is even more of a, like for me, I'm watching to see what AOC is going to be doing. I'm watching to see who they're going to get behind. I'm watching to see what Caruso is going to be doing. I'm watching to see what the centrist conservatives are going to be doing, centrist liberals are going to be doing. And they're doubling down on the opposite side.

AOC is going after Nancy Pelosi. And so insider trading. Great. Which is good. That's kind of like pushing each other out. But because there's so much opportunity, you're going to see a dog-eat-dog type of environment. And... I'm not quite sure they have yet figured out how to do it. Don't get it twisted. They're going to come back and compete. This was the most embarrassing loss of their careers.

Yeah. I mean, I understand what you're saying, your frustration to say Democrats all cheat. That's a blanket statement to everybody. I don't know if it's going to be all.

Does it correlate with the number of people crossing the border? Yes.

So those people that crossed the border, the record-breaking numbers, which I believe it was the most people that crossed the border illegally was in December of 2023, if I'm not mistaken.

Zero, do anything. Guess what? That means a terrorist is going to find their food, the women, anything they want. They're willing to do everything and anything at all costs to hold you hostage, anything. If that's the true definition of terrorist, what do you mean maybe they don't have food? They're going to get their food one way or another. Of course.

They're going to get the girls one way or another because they're willing to terrorize.

Billionaires did. Billionaire class did. Why? Cheap labor. So Trump's lowering cheap labor if you really think about what's going on versus the Bidens are helping increase more cheap labor for you.

Well, send us some more of these illegal immigrants over here and let's give them Social Security so cheap labor can be available again.

Trump, as his vice president, only to immediately declare, I resign, allowing Trump to assume the presidency for a third term.

Professor Bruce Peabody, co-author of a 1999 Minnesota Law Review article, The Twice and Future President, explained, we contend that the 22nd Amendment prescribes only the re-election of an already twice-elected president, making the Trump path to a third re-election term legally feasible if voters support the plan.

So your main argument is that it's too early to have this conversation. Have the conversation on third year, not right now. And that's kind of what Trump was saying, by the way. It's way too early. We're having a conversation. It's not even something I'm thinking about. He says, it's not even on my mind, but a lot of people are talking about it. Trump said that multiple times about this.

They didn't say it's not. It says it doesn't mean it's not going to get done, but something tells me behind closed doors, G and others are meddling in this deal not getting done. Of course.

By the way, let me tell you what would probably happen. Let me tell you what probably would happen. You know who this helps? Let's just kind of go logic. The guy that's selling it, C.K. Hutchins, the guy that had a bad relationship with G because back in the days in 1994, he prevented him from getting a real estate deal, and he doesn't forget that. The owner of C.K. Hutchins.

What ends up happening is some people buy them and they post them on eBay and they sell it for three times. And you see that with hats. Some of the hats that we have, the Future Looks Bright hat, are on eBay. Some guys are selling them for $3,500, $3,000, $500. And some of them are able to sell them, but for you...

He is rivals with Xi. They don't have a good relationship together. Yeah. But here's the part. You know what he should do?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
He can do that. And he can raise that $19 billion to $25 billion if he wanted to get six more billion dollars.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
It is. Unless if he already signed off on the amount he agreed to. Hmm. You see, China doesn't want to sell this thing if they paid them $300 billion. If I'm China, pay me a trillion. We're not selling it. A trillion is nothing compared to the amount of control you can have with those two ports. And it's 43 ports they're selling for the $18.9 billion.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Now, all the money in the world is not as important as the two ports that's in Panama right now. Not at all. I'm going to get to the next stories here. All right. So next stories we're going to get to is Rachel Maddow, Rob. Rachel Maddow's pay fuels jealousy of Lawrence O'Donnell. I want this thing to be a three to five minute clip. I don't want it to be long.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I just have one thing to say about this. So Lawrence O'Donnell is pissed. Just about two weeks ago, Rob, you played a clip. of him saying this is day 51, and I'm not quite sure I can go another whatever many days. I don't know what it was, but you played this clip here, okay? So is this the one? Go ahead, Rob. So that's Lawrence O'Donnell, right?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Okay, play the clip.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Okay, so Lawrence will die. He says this, right? Yeah, that's a bad picture, right? Good job, bro.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So Rachel Maddow, veteran MSNBC host, 2008 Rachel Maddow Show, reportedly earning $25 million yearly, has sparked envy at the networks with an insider telling The Sun, Lawrence has been trying to renegotiate his contract and he wants his internal everyone calling to Rachel Maddow to do the scrap that's working one day a week.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And recording a podcast, which will never happen again, Maddow's top-rated show in February and a pledge to host daily during Trump's first 100 days, contrasts with Lawrence O'Donnell's absence from the last word, fueling rumors of his push for a similar golden parachute as MSNBC faces spinoff from NBC, Lawrence O'Donnell, another MSNBC mainstay, announced a break on air, telling Maddow, this is day 52, I'm not going to take it for you, I'm going to take a week off.

So... Rob, can you do me a favor? Let's look at data. Can you go on YouTube and type in Rachel Maddow? Type in Rachel Maddow and go to filters, if you could, and just go to views and then go to this month. Go to views and just go to this month. This month. Go right there. Okay, so can you go to the left? So first one is not her. It's Lawrence O'Donnell's show.

So they're just tacking Rachel O'Donnell. It's a mad out in the title. Go LaLore. Go LaLore. Go LaLore. Go LaLore. Okay. So why don't we do this? Go to the search, Rob, and go to 12 months. Go to this year.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Same thing. Go all the way to the top. The filters. Go all the way to the top. Filter will show up. Now instead of this week, put this month. This year. Yeah. There you go.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
It's all him. So 10 million views. That's a month ago. Eight and a half million views. That's a month ago. Can you type on it to make sure it's the real thing? Let's see how many comments and likes it gets because that's the way to measure if it's real. Click on it. 31,000 comments. It's real. 175,000 likes. So he got that many views. Go back. So 6.2 million views. It's short.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So the biggest clip that she's had the last 12 months is a 4.8 million view clip. Now go up there and just remember this when we're negotiating. If you're an agent representing Lawrence O'Donnell, type in Lawrence O'Donnell. Type in Lawrence O'Donnell.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
and Lawrence O'Donnell, boom, and go to filters, do the same exact thing, and go to views, and then let's go to the other filter, put this year, no, this year, yep, to compare the two. Look at this. 10 million views, 8.5 million views, 8.5 million views, 7.3 million views. Go to 4.7 million views, 4.1 million views. He's the face. So guess what? Pay the man his money. Nope. Pay the man his money.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I'm going to tell you this, though. Hang on. Let me finish my thought with this here. The other part I would tell you is the following. Think about this following thing on what I'm about to say. How many people, when is the last time you saw us reacting to a Lawrence O'Donnell clip?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Well, one of them we have, which is who? Rachel Maddow. When he's like, it's day 51, Rob, or whatever, whatever.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Tell me how many clips we've responded to with Lawrence O'Donnell last 12 months. Besides that one? I don't know if we've done it. I don't even think so. Rob, can you look at your history and see how many Lawrence O'Donnell clips you got?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Okay, can you search Joy Reid to see if Joy Reid got more eyeballs? Can you type in Joy Reid? How many more do you see?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Go to the view. Type in the view and see how many of the view comes up.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Maybe do Bill Maher. Go to Bill Maher. Go all the way down and see how many Bill Maher it is. A lot. Unfortunately, Lawrence doesn't make news for people to react to it. Bill Maher, what do they pay Bill Maher every year?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But go to vtmerch.com to place your order. Okay, having said that, let's get right into it. Rob, can you pull up the chart of Elon Musk showing the number of social securities So they're showing that he's given a talk. I believe this is in Wisconsin, if I'm not mistaken. They're campaigning. Today's a very big day for Wisconsin.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I think it's $7 million. No, it's more than that. What's Bill Maher's salary per year? $10 million a year. So Bill Maher's getting $10 million a year. What do they pay Maddow?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Too much. Guys, she's at best worth $3 to $5 million.
PBD Podcast

At best $3 to $5 million. Adam, thoughts?

Who's the young girl that CNN signed? That's at CNN. What are they paying Caitlin Collins? $3 million. By the way, let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question. Very honest question. Would you rather pay $3 million a year to Caitlin Collins or $3 million a year to Rachel Maddow?
PBD Podcast

He roared the whole cheese head, signed it, sent it in the audience himself. But they're showing the data here. And I want you to pay attention to this and ask yourself, why is this happening? Go ahead, Rob, if you can play the clip.

You know, you know how I look at it. I look at it the following way. Say you're putting an NBA team together. All right. So you kind of like, well, I'm going to go get a 38 year old. What do you call it? I'm going to get a 38 year old center that has known more and I'm going to pay him more than I'm going to pay a guy that's coming out in the NBA.

Pause it right there. Okay, so can you zoom in? So do you know what this is? If you're watching, so this is new... non-citizen social security numbers issued. The furthest one to the left is 2021. That's Biden's first year, okay? Is there a way to see what that number is?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
That's first year 2021 Biden giving out Social Security. Second year looks like 590, if I'm not mistaken, Rob. Third year looks like 964. Yep. And fourth year is over 2 million, but is it 2,095,000? Yeah, 2,095,247. And can you do me a favor and research?
PBD Podcast

It's April Fool's, Tom. Yeah, guys, it's April Fool's. Tom looked at me like. He is not dating Lindsay Lohan. He's looking at his phone. Kids are texting. Lindsay Lohan. But Tom, what if he was dating Lindsay Lohan? What's wrong with that? What's wrong with that? There's nothing wrong with that. He's a focused guy. They would go to casinos together. There would be no issues. No issues.
PBD Podcast

What's wrong with that? Don't judge him if he does.

I think he'll get it together. I think Shohei can handle it. I think Shohei with Lindsey is going to be fine. and they'll eventually figure things out. Who knows how long it's gonna last? I mean, Taylor Swift. But anyways, let's go to the next story here. So Canada, Trump holds extremely productive call with Canadian prime minister. We agree on many things, okay? We agree on many things.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Trump announced on Truth Social an extremely productive call with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney writing, I just finished speaking with Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada. It was an extremely productive call. We agree on many things and we'll be meeting immediately after Canada's upcoming election to work on elements of politics, business, and all the other factors.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
This will end up being great for both the U.S. and Canada. This marked... Their first conversation following Carney's rise to liberal leadership with 86% of the vote after Justin Trudeau stepped down. Trump, known for his hardline trade stance, signaled collaboration despite tension over tariffs and dairy disputes.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
That is wild to be thinking about. Rob, what is the year that we've given out the most Social Security numbers out to non-U.S. citizens? Can we just kind of see? So 2.1 million, that means out of 340 million people living here, 1% of Social Security cards were given away just last year in 2024. Wow. People that aren't supposed to be here. They're not. These are not. What is the most?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Mark Carney, 60, Canada's new prime minister, as declared on Thursday in Ottawa, the old relationship we had with the U.S. based on deepening integration of our economics and tight securing and military cooperation is over.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
After meeting provincial premier, speaking to reporters, he added that time will come for a broad renegotiation of our security and trade relationships, signaling a shift from the past U.S.-Canada ties. So watch this. Trump is being complimentary about Carney, okay? Trump is being complimentary about Carney. And what did he say about Pierre a couple weeks ago, Rob? You have the clip.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Like, throughout the entire day, they're going back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Lots of good stories on Manek Circles. But... A few stories here. One, Trump holds extremely productive call with Canadian Prime Minister. We agree on many things. He's talking about Carney. At the same time, Maxime just came out, Bernier, and he just came out and did what RFK did.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
If you can pull up the clip of what Trump said about Pierre. Trump, Pierre, and do you have it, Rob, or no? I can find it. Yeah, if you type in Trump, Pierre, he was being asked about it, and this was Pierre's opportunity to get Trump to go on there. Anyways, oh, right there, the 24-second one. I think that's the one, bottom left, bottom left, right there. I think this is the one.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Is this the one, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I'm going to go to Tom, and Tom, Rob, you look for it if you can, but he was not complimentary about Pierre because Pierre wasn't complimentary about Trump, and that created a rift. Tom, what are your thoughts on this, what he said about Carney?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I agree. Do you think a negotiation was done there? Do you think Trump said, if you do this, if you do that, if you do this, I'll be complimentary? And do you think Carney asked indirectly? Because, Tom, if you read Trump's Truth Social, if you go back to it, that's an endorsement. This is an endorsement. Let me explain to you why.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
The key words in this Truth Social to making an endorsement is what? Watch what it says. And we will be meeting immediately after what? Canada's upcoming election. The snap election. That's an endorsement. Meaning he's going to win. Trump is saying Carney's going to win.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So Trump is helping a liberal in Canada over a peer because of peers' arrogance.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
That's correct. Think about that. By the way. Do you remember when I had somebody on the podcast sitting over here when I said, why did you not visit Mar-a-Lago to just have a conversation with the president? I don't need to have that conversation. Why would I go to him? He helped you become a governor. Why don't you have a conversation with him? I don't need to have the conversation with him.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
What's the most? What's the most? What's the most social security numbers? In a year to non-citizens. What was that? Over 2 million. So the record is in 2024. Over 2 million. That is absolutely insane. So now, very basic. Why did this happen? What percentage of them do you think are going to be voting Republican? What percentage of them do you think are going to be voting on the left?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
All Pierre had to do was come to Mar-a-Lago, go to the White House, have a conversation with the guy. Now, listen, Canada would have said if he would have been seen with Trump, they hate him and Trump. They hate him, all this other stuff, right? Look at this here. Canadian conservatives, here's some unsolicited advice to you. Stop being so easy on your candidates.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Pierre Poliev, stop assuming they're automatically going to win. Stop being so overcautious and scared of what liberal media in Canada will do to your candidates. That's the old COVID era mindset. Rob, go a little lower if you could. I can't read the rest. Stop walking on eggshells trying to run a campaign. And the old school consultant driven, wear this tie, get this haircut, wear that shirt, BS.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Grow some balls. Trump worked his ass off. He didn't have all conservative libertarians or independents till the last 90 days. But he went and earned every single one of their votes. He went on 20 plus podcast appearances, not including a ton of campaign and media stops. He did this at the age of 78. Pierre is 45 years old campaigning like he's Biden's age. He's a great speaker.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
He's very talented. But, damn, he comes across lazy, pompous, and entitled. I initially wanted to help him, but at this point my concern is more about the people whom I love in Canada to get a candidate that will fight for them. I had Max on, but for whatever reason, Canada is treating him the way U.S. did with RFK. I respect the hell out of his willingness to talk. Max said something about them.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
dropping to go be part of a Pierre, whether that is an April Fool's stunt or not, I don't know. We'll see as the day goes out. I don't know if I like that joke either because it undermines his campaign. If it's a joke, I'm not a fan of it. This may be your last chance at strengthening the relationship with U.S. or the ship may sail. Here's a list of people I would beg for your candidate to go on.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Tucker, Lex. Ryan, Morgan, Cuomo, Theo, Fulson, Candice, Glenn Beck, Breakfast Club, Ben Shapiro, Kirk, Walsh, Ruben, Brand, Outkick, Phil, Schultz, and of course, Joe Rogan. Beg if you must. Maybe even ask if Musk would consider doing a Twitter space with him. Long shot, but you must ask. Most of the names above won't be interested because they're all busy with a ton of guests who want to get on.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But hope here's foot to the fire. Stop being so easy on him. Tag him and his entire campaign team on this thread. It drives me crazy seeing all the ass kissing as if he's already won. Push him, challenge him. The future of Canada is predicated on you holding him accountable. I hear some Canadians say, why should Pierre go on podcasts in the U.S.? They say it's a waste of time.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
What they don't understand is that these podcasts cut clips that will be shared on all social media platforms, X, TikTok, Insta, Facebook, YouTube. That's how Trump dominated the news and social media cycle. Time is running out. You know what they're going to do about it? Nothing.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And Carney's going to win.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Who did this? What was the motive? Tom, lots of questions. Your thoughts on this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But by the way, though, this has shown what? This has shown Pierre... was at 93% on January 1st. Now he's at 35% and going lower. It's not like he's making any kind of progress. And Carney's going higher. FYI, to the conservatives, independents and libertarians that are upset when I talk about what I say with Pierre, we talk about the stuff with Canada. Guess what? This is on your candidate.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Don't be upset at Americans. He did this. He had the biggest lead. He should have been it. Not anybody else. Stop putting your frustration on, you know, I can't believe you're saying this. By the way, can you go back to that tweet I posted and go to the comments section? Can you go to the comments section about Canada? Yeah, if you can go right there. Just go lower and see how people are reacting.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Canada, stop meddling. You have no idea how Canada works. I responded, get off X if it bothers you or hold your candidates fire to the feet. You're capable of doing that. The next person says, Americans don't understand Canada. Pierre would still be far ahead if Trump hadn't played his tariff game. This fool's...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
The fools we have crawl back into the abuse of government out of fear Pierre will be like Trump because the media here hold him. Unfortunately, now most, Rob, can you put us on show more? Now more Canadians have a negative opinion about the U.S. If Pierre won an American right-wing podcast, I guarantee you it will not help.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Carney hasn't even gone on popular liberal shows in America since he's won the leadership. I thought you would be smart enough to put this together. Keep repeating this nonsense narrative. How has it worked for you for the last few years, fearing the leftist mainstream media? They've accomplished their mission by scaring the hell out of you and your candidates to not speak to conservatives.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Go a little lower. See what people are saying here. People back and forth. Back to this other one. I agree completely by why he ain't coming on yours. His campaign was extremely – Rob, what did Tony tell us about how his campaign was with us?

And he called back. Did you hang up on me? And they're not picking up. And it's like, oh, it was a, yeah, we were busy. Why did you hang up on our booker? His campaign team immediately extremely distracted. And it happened on two separate occasions. The other two celebrities have carried themselves in the same way that he did. Everybody else we deal with is easy. It all comes from the top.

The biggest, most humiliating loss a politician had with a massively, this is worse than the Patriots against the Falcons. This is worse than the Red Sox against the Yankees comeback 2000, and what year was that, Tom? The Yankees, Red Sox, 04. This is, if Pierre loses, this is the worst loss of our generation a famous politician has had.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Maybe the most embarrassing because the man simply doesn't want to work and go earn the vote, and he's doing it the same old-fashioned way. The guy's been in politics since he was 25 years old and seems like a good guy, seems like a nice guy, but, oh, my God, diplomacy is not something of his strength.

for him to be able to have the relationship and walk through it and be able to keep that momentum going. Unfortunately, he helped conservatives have Mark Carney here very soon. Also Trump.

What is harder to flip? Think about what is harder to flip. And think about to be able to live in Argentina... and you're a socialist country, and you're able to flip that and have a good relationship with Trump. Think about Bukele. You're living in a country where crime is where it's at with MS-13, and you're going straight against them, and you flip that. What is harder to do?

Think about you're in Canada, which you're a conservative, You could have easily been able to make a lot of noise and gone out there and campaigned. You were served on a silver platter. Canada, the last five years, how ugly was Canada with progressive policies that they came out?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
That's why they're progressive. But a lot of people also voted for Biden for that nonsense. So Canada may be more progressive.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Canada may be more progressive than the U.S.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Canada may be more progressive than the U.S. is. Maybe.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
For the third time, Canada may be more progressive than U.S. may be. That may be correct. However... Why are so many people here when we're going to different places? You say, I'm here from Canada. What happened? I left. Why'd you leave? Because of Trudeau. What happened under Trudeau? This. What happened with the truckers? What happened with all these people that were protesting?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
What happened with all these people around the country? You don't think everybody was paying attention? If you're saying the progressives are against it, why was Trudeau's approval rating the lowest ever? Who did that? Progressives? You don't think a lot of that would progress. That's how bad he was. But you don't think progressives, because you just said progressives.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Adam, if you let me finish. Progressives, if progressives are that supportive of progressive policies, had Canada ever had somebody that was more progressive than Trudeau? You just said Canada was more progressive. Maybe his father. But you just said he was more progressive.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Rob, you have ChatGBT, buddy? If you're saying that Canada is more progressive, Justin is a very progressive candidate. Why was his approval rating so low?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But he's very progressive. Do you think some progressives flipped on him just like they flipped on Biden and Kamala and some of the guys are like, I'm out?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
No, that's not what I'm saying. You're not hearing what I'm saying.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But let me make the point.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
If you're going to say somebody is very progressive, if you're going to say that, that Canada is more progressive and you have a very progressive candidate, why are you not happy about them? Who? Progressives. So if progressives are not happy about him... Because they were sick of the guy.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Between Carney... They wanted Trudeau out of there. Between Carney and Trudeau, who's more progressive?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
If you're making the argument that he is more progressive, they had a more progressive candidate. Why do they not like him? Because they're sick of him. And why was—no, no, go to the polling market, Rob. Because don't take this off the conservatives. Don't take this responsibility off conservatives. Why does the polling market have Pierre at 93% in January?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Because people are more willing to rally against an enemy like Trump than a vanilla candidate like Trump. But now you're out of place. Now you're out of place. Is Trump going to do Trump all the time? Is Trump going to be Trump all the time? Yes. Is Trump going to do what Trump does all the time? Yes.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So is this more a credit to Carney's diplomacy on knowing how to handle Trump and a shot at Pierre for not knowing how to handle Trump? Does the credit go to the candidate that knew how to handle Trump better than the other? Do you give credit to Carney for learning how to deal with Trump versus Pierre not knowing how to deal with Trump?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
OK, that's the argument. So the argument here is not on the fact that Canada is more progressive or not. The argument is on the fact that Pierre mishandled Trump the same way DeSantis mishandled Trump. It's a mishandling of Trump. If Trump is number one in the world and that's who he is today.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
If Obama was number one in the world when he was a leader of the free world, you have to learn how to deal with him. You have to learn how to manage and deal with them. Pierre didn't know how to deal with Trump. He didn't understand the power dynamic, something a lot of people don't understand. Something a lot of people like, James Ward, he comes to the Lakers.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
He thinks he's a better player than Magic Johnson. Magic's like, you either can go to a different team or you have to realize this is my team. And if you don't understand it, you can go anywhere else. Magic was very clear about it. It's Trump's world right now. And Pierre didn't know how to coexist in Trump's world. And that is his error. And Carney gets credit for...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
for being able to play the politics better. And by the way, his policies are not necessarily better for Canada, but he did a better job on how to deal with Trump. And who loses? Conservatives of Canada. Welcome. Your guy, Poliev, didn't know how to handle Trump. So it's very easy for people to say, you know, well, no, it's really this. It's all Trump's fault. It's all Carney's fault.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
It's all the liberals' fault. It's all the mainstream media's fault. I am very simple. It comes back to the way you handled it. The way you mishandled this opportunity, you went from 93 to 35. Wow. Who was the quarterback of the Atlanta Falcons? Who was the quarterback? Matt Ryan. Matt Ryan. Did Tom Brady win that Super Bowl or did Matt Ryan lose that Super Bowl? A little bit of both.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I think Ryan lost. There is no way it's a little bit of both. It for sure is Matt Ryan lost it. You're winning 28-3. Correct. And you lose? It's not on the defense? You're not giving Tom credit? You didn't score a single touchdown second half. No, I'm giving Tom credit. Of course, Tom is the GOAT. But what I'm trying to say is, was it more Matt Ryan losing it or was it more Tom Brady winning it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Of course, it's more Matt Ryan losing it. How do you lose that? You're going into the fourth quarter with a third quarter with three minutes left. 28-9. Yeah, and you lose that? This is embarrassing what Pierre did here. And his voters, his base, should be on his side. In 2020, when we're talking podcast and Trump loses, what did I talk about in 2020 when I talked about Trump? Do you remember?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Because you were there. What did I talk about with Trump when he lost in 2020?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
No, but what was it that he stopped doing that I said, go back to what worked in 2016? Selling the dream? Selling the dream. Well, what was he constantly doing? The nightmare? The unfair. It's unfair. It's unfair. It's unfair.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Yeah, and so guess what? Yeah, of course they played the game. Of course they manipulated. Of course they did what they did. Of course it was election interference. But at the same time, it's more on how you handle it. Nobody in the right sense knew how to handle COVID. That was a very weird situation for us to go through. But here, Pierre was handed this to him. Go for it. Handed.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Hey, you're going to be the PM. And he started thinking he's bigger than Trump. Eating an apple. And then you destroy, you try to embarrass Trump publicly. No problem. Here you go. And why does Carney know how to do this? Because Carney was a what before? He was in the investment banking for 19 years. What do you learn when you're a businessman?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Learning how to broker deals. What do you not learn in politics? It's power. It's like, well, you know, go give a speech in front of everybody. No, in business, deals are done behind closed doors. And Pierre didn't know how to make the one phone call. Hey, I'd like to speak with the president.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
I know. But what I'm saying, like, for example, if... If we want something, who wants something from who? Who wants, does Canada want and need more stuff from U.S. or does U.S. need and want more stuff from Canada? Who needs who more? Canada needs us so much more. Does Pierre need Trump or does Trump need Pierre?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Trump don't need Pierre.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But whatever Canada does, we can get elsewhere.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
We're going to see what's going to happen here. But the reality of it is. It's either Trump wants him in because he wants the trade war to continue. It's either Trump wants him in because he's agreed to terms with Trump to speak and Trump told him, if you turn on me, I'm gonna turn on you like never before. So whatever commitments he made to him on the phone call,
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
he has to keep, or Trump is so offended by Pierre's disrespect and lack of diplomacy that he says, F that guy, I'm moving on. He has no clue what he's doing. He's too arrogant, he's too entitled. It could be as simple as Trump invited Pierre to come to the White House and come to Mar-a-Lago, and he declined it. It could be that simple.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Any of those things is a screw-up, because you think American conservatives would rather have Carney or would rather have Pierre. What do you think? Pierre. Of course. Of course. But it's your mishandling. Trump is not going to help you become a president. You've got to go earn it. And the way he's playing it is... is it doesn't make any sense to him. I'm not a Canadian. I don't live there.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But, you know, seeing the way this was handled, extremely embarrassing. All right, let's go to the next story here. Let's go to the next story here. Gavin Newsom, Rob. Pull this clip up. Gavin Newsom says... Newsom says, Democratic brand is toxic. Okay, is this with Bill Maher, Rob? Yep. Okay, go for it. Play this clip. These guys are crushing us.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
And guess what? I just found it. I found a year with the most given, Rob. So more than 37 million Social Security numbers had been issued by the end of 1937. That's a total had been given. In the next dozen years, the number varied with the number of new entrants into covered employment. It reached at a peak of 7.6 million.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
given in 1942, but dropped to 2.7 million post-war period 46 through 50, okay?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
But hear me out, this continues. Then the highest number of Social Security numbers issued in a single year was 9.1 million in 1990. Here's a more detailed breakdown. The peak year for Social Security numbers, Rob, do me a favor. Type this in Google, and you'll see exactly what I'm looking at. Most Social Security numbers given in a single year. Most Social Security numbers given in a single year.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So it should come up perfect, and that's exactly what I'm looking at, yeah. So I have another one that says 9.1 million, but we'll find that as well. So this is, we've issued 450 million Social Security numbers since day one, with an average of about 5.5 million numbers assigned annually. But how many is it to non-U.S. citizens, though? The peak year comes down to 7.6 million.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
He went behind Pierre Poliev, which we will respond to as well. I had a tweet I put out there directed to Pierre Poliev that I'll read it to you here in a few minutes on why I believe what he needs to be doing. It's really... A very directed, pointed message on what needs to be done. We'll talk about that as well. How Trump could be president until 2037.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
What's it going to post for? 2.7 million. I have here, it says the highest number was in 1990. was 9.1 million. But I wonder if that is too... Yeah, if you type in... It can't be non-citizens, right? Okay, it cannot be. Rob, can you type this in? What I just sent you, just type that in Google, if you could. Do you see which one I texted you?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
Okay, so let's see what comes up with this. Okay, zoom in right there. Right. Is it Family Support Act 1988 and the growth in the enumeration at birth program combined to increase the number of social security numbers issued to 9.1 million people in 1990, but the figure decreased to 7.5 million in 1991.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
The number of dependents who are required to get social security numbers under the Family Support Act
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
So then the title here is what? New non-citizen Social Security numbers issued. New non-citizen. What is the most we've done for new non-citizens? I'm really curious at this point. Most Social Security numbers given to non-U.S. citizens. Are you able to find it? Do you see any of it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Third Term Triggers Liberal MELTDOWN | PBD Podcast | Ep. 569
You keep seeing that. Me too. I keep seeing the same thing as well. Guys in the back, can you also look this up to see maybe you find something that we're not seeing? Adam, what are your thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, I mean, again, letting Tom lose. You're learning. Tom is the one we have to be careful with because when we get HR issues, it's because of Tom.

We're working through it. We had a meeting yesterday specifically for coaching these types of moments. Guys, we got a lot of stories to go through that we'll cover here today, and we want to get your reaction on many of these stories. The one that just came out, the timing of this story is kind of weird.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Keep the maintenance up. So here's a question. The question becomes, you know how you used a Michael Jordan example, 91, they break through, they won the first one, the second, third. I think the analogy to use that would be, No one's ever won since Michael. To follow Michael, Derrick Rose tried. He was the youngest guy to win MVP, but they never won a championship, right?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So what is the pressures of following a guy in a state that the people who voted for him are very, very happy with what he's done? So there's not really a – because you've got to find a crisis tool come up, right? Or else it's going to be, well, you have a big shadow of a guy that crushed it during COVID and post-COVID and all that stuff.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
How do you overcome that with certain people that are going to say, you know, what are you going to do better than DeSantis? He's done a very good job.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Rob, if you got the tweet to pull it up that just kind of shows the data, Byron Donalds holds massive lead in poll on gubernatorial contenders for the state of Florida. And it just happened, I believe, yesterday. And the number was, what, 32% or something like that, 31%. Yeah, we'll talk about that here in a minute. They have them at the top. That's right. And there's a percentage on it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Was he Armenian, Assyrian, or Persian?

I'm in my socks right now.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Okay. So then my follow-up for you would be the following. I think the decision you made when you said 2022, you brought him up at the victory. Hey, would you come out and support, et cetera, et cetera. Great. And then that's the one and a half million landslide victory that he had. That's the one. And I remember that evening. It was historic. It was an epic night. It was an epic night.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
No question about it. Miami-Dade, all these other things that we're reading about. For you to say, no, I'm going with Trump and I'm not going to go with you. Him not being happy, state, all that stuff. Great. Strategically, from the business and marketing standpoint, one would say between the two, whose tweet has more power? A Trump's tweet or DeSantis' tweet? DeSantis' tweet.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's not even close. No, it's Trump. Whose endorsement has more power? Trump. Yeah. And I think the part about the governor that this is how I process it is the sequencing as you're going up, right? Sometimes you want to force something to happen too soon. and you make move nine on move four, and you stumble. Make sense?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And it's kind of like, hey, you know, no, I don't need to make a phone call to him and tell him that I'm running for office. Why not? Why not give him the credit not making a call to Trump when he and I are having a conversation? I think sequencing-wise, did you watch that from a distance and say, ooh, that's a fumble. Why are you not giving credit to the guy that helped you become governor?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
We'll cover that here in a minute when we get to it. Yeah. State of Florida, you know, what things that maybe we need to work on, what will be, you know, if you do run, if you do choose to go that route, what are some areas that Florida can improve on? A lot of us moved here from other states. We love the states. I want to know what you're thinking about that.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Internally, you seem like a strategist. You seem like a guy that is stable and you're thinking about it yourself. You seem like a very confident guy. You think very highly of yourself, but at the same time, super likable, very good communicator. You can go in any circle and be able to adapt to that community, whether it's highly intellectual, comedy, culture. You can do that. You're able to. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
go there, and that's not necessarily something he likes to do. It's not in his comfort zone. He's a very good exec. He gets things done, but he doesn't like to go there. Did you kind of process that yourself and say, oof, that was a mistake. Let me learn from this to not make this a mistake for my political career? Because you're not somebody that people are looking at just as a governor.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
On a 20-year trajectory, you're on a list of a lot of different lists. If there's a top 50 names, top 25 names of presidents, candidates on the right, you're on that list. So people are looking at you as somebody that, you know, governor, boom, boom, boom, and what comes next, right?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And that could be 2030, 2028, so it looks like 2026, so forth, say 2028, 2032, 2032, 2036-ish, like that time frame.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541

Is this Morgan Stanley?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
That's what it is. Rob was about to give credit to somebody else. I want to get it correct so we know who it is.

Then, obviously, Jim Acosta had a rough week. You know, this guy was given an incredible job at midnight when no one watches. So even if you make mistakes, no one will know about it. And he said no to it. And he decides to walk, and he said, you know, always focus on your truth, right? Never, you know, sway from the truth. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
You guys were never in a setting where it's like, hey, you know, never. No, we didn't have that conversation. So could he have ran but been more diplomatic? Because I remember him getting on Sean Hannity and the shows, and he would say, you know what, I'm willing to debate the president. He should be on that stage. And what does he want to come out and sit down and talk to us?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Sounded a little bit, you know... Out of his element, it's almost like maybe somebody was even telling him to do that. Could he have ran in 2023, 2024, and shined while still edifying and protecting a president? I think so.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And we're going to talk to Jim Acosta because he likes freedom of speech so much that he turned off all the comments. So when he posted the video, he doesn't want anybody to say anything about it.

Well, let me tell you, that's the beautiful part of the experience you have with wealth management. Because that business, if you're able to convince people and speak to them, you have to do it logically and persuade them to move $10 million, to move my $20 million, to move my $100 million. That's not an easy thing to do. It's not easy.

We'll have a reaction to it. Coping, coping, coping. Trump administration gives ICE quota of 1,800 arrests per day across U.S. Can you imagine? You're working for the guys. If you're not doing 1,800 a day, you're fired, like a sales team. I absolutely love that meeting. This other story sounds like a spoof, like a Babylon Bee or an onion story. It's actually a true story.

While we're in Florida, we see what's going on with California with the fires. And they're dealing with the fires. Florida's got the hurricanes to deal with. But regardless, we've been in insurance for a long time. I've been in it for 25 years. Insurance is a topic of discussion both in California and Florida.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
What's your question for him from somebody that's looking at it from a more insurance standpoint for if Byron decides to run as a governor?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Trump blocks $50 million in condoms for Gaza and trans operations in Colombia. Some of these numbers are staggering. I think one of the representatives actually talked about it. Google Maps will make Trump's changes to show Gulf of America and Mount McKinney. This is Google doing it and choosing to do it, which is great.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, that's going to be interesting because in California, a lot of insurance companies you're hearing about leaving, the FAIR Act is forcing them to do a certain fee. And they're like, wait a minute, I don't want to insure that community. That's a risky community. How do I stay in?

White House to offer buyouts to federal workers who won't work and return to office. I think 6% of them only work from the office. The rest of them don't based on some numbers we've all seen.

Well, it'll be a big – I think the 2026 race for the gubernatorial race, I think this will be one of the things that will come up.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And I think if and when you announce – I would have my team feed me. I would get so deep into this because those coming, you want them to stay. And if guys can't buy a house because premium is so high, so then they're not going to buy as real estate agents going to take a hit. Economy takes a hit and you don't have more inflow of people coming in. That's right.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And then maybe something happens like California where a lot of guys from L.A. were moving to Valencia, to Canyon Country, to Palmdale, going up. So maybe people will be moving up or out like Fort Lauderdale. Some of that could be happening, even all over the place. You're in Naples. You're a different part of Florida. But I think this will be one of the main issues coming up in the race.

What do you mean? I don't know. I don't know what that means. But you know what the main premise of what she was trying to ask him to do? He said, I'll agree to all this stuff. But she's trying to say that you will not be able to sue pharmaceutical companies in the future. Like, what do you mean I'm not going to be doing that in the future?

It is. But at the same time, I know what she's trying to get. Byron, when you're seeing this yesterday happen with RFK, and I'm sure you've spent time with him as well, and I'm sure you've been around Warren as well. What are your thoughts when you saw this?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
John F. Kennedy's grandson slammed for mocking John F. Kennedy Jr. 's voice in a viral video, which you have to see. It's disturbing. When you see this, as well as I think it's his cousin, Caroline Kennedy calls her cousin RFK Jr. a predator. And there's even a story about political Murdoch empire comes out against RFK. Anyway, there's a lot of stories that we'll talk about that.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Before you go to this, because I want to finish with this, can you go to the clip where he's being asked about, you know, I'm not going to do anything. Go back to the grandson, by the way, of John F. Kennedy. This is John F.K. 's grandson, if I'm not mistaken. Correct. Jack Schlossenberg. Right. If you can play this clip, go for it.

And then this other story, Anthony Mackie, who's the actor, right? He's the actor that says America doesn't represent Captain America, okay? America doesn't represent Captain America. We'll address that as well and have some thoughts on that. Super Bowl 59 tickets are cheaper than they were last year by a mile, not by $100 or $200, by a mile.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Is this his cousin, Rob? Yes, Caroline Kennedy. And if you want to play this clip, go for it.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Dude. Okay. You hear that, right? You hear that. Yeah, that's right. You hear that while they're saying, you know, what they're saying about this. And then... To be fair, with the previous grandson of John F. Kennedy, if we're going to show one clip, we have to show other clips. Not this, Rob, the picture, the clip. Go to the right, exactly where you went, Rob.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Just, no, no, Rob, the tweet by the guy. Okay, I'm sorry. And just go to the video. If we show one video, I feel we have to show both videos because that wasn't a, this is the same guy, John Levine, that was making fun of Bobby. This is another video. Let's just allow him to present himself. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
You can stop it right there. That's enough.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
But the point is, you know, and then they're sitting here talking about Bobby has the job. Like, oh, he is not qualified to do this. Are we quick to forget who Biden put on his administration with the guy and all these... I'm a lady. Do you remember all these folks that were getting jobs? Like, here's one of them. Rachel Levine. What was his job?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Exactly. This is the same exact role. So for the cousin to say, Bobby's not qualified for the job. He is? Yeah. She. He. No, wait a minute. He is. It's a biological male. Don't forget the luggage thief. Yeah, and the other guy with the luggage thief. But the point being this. So the part where Byron makes a point to say they don't know what to do, right? They're kind of trying. They have lost.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Look at the armpit hairs to the left right there. This dude. Is he in prison? Is he in prison yet? What was his job? Stealing shit? They can't. What they can't do is the argument can't be. Yeah. He's not qualified. The argument has to be a different argument because you look like clowns making the argument that this guy's not qualified, yet the other guy's qualified.

God, I love that. Do you believe him? I believe him. Absolutely. I believe him. Behind the scenes, I've had experiences with this guy on midnight, giving my wife a call because we were concerned about something with our kids. And I don't know what part of the world he's in. This guy's a true believer where he's at. Rob, which clip is this?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And then, Rob, if you want to play the final confirmation, the hearing and out time, I'll come to you. Play this clip here.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Go for it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Then he had a passenger jet with 64 aboard collides with Army helicopter while landing at Reagan Airport near D.C. And the president sent a truth message on this. And he's a little bit confused on what really happened and how this doesn't make sense. So there's a lot of questions there. Tragic event to hear.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Well, I mean, listen, people seem to be excited about it. And if he gets in, I will tell you, I tweeted something yesterday, and I said, Rob, if you can just go to... To me, the biggest fear isn't... It's all intertwined, and it's all connected, because it starts off with one thing. He's feared by many, but none of them Big Pharma.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Any institution, politician, lobbyist, mainstream media funded by Big Pharma will fight to prevent it from being confirmed. That's how simple it is. These guys are throwing money. Do you realize? So imagine a person that's, let's just say Rachel Maddow, let's say Anderson Cooper, let's say somebody's working at CNN or MSNBC. Where is the funding coming from?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So if this person makes $6 million a year, and God knows how much money they got the previous year from Big Pharma, that goes away, your six million could become three million. If CNN's top line revenue dropped $400 million in the last couple years, how much more will it drop if Big Pharma can no longer advertise with mainstream? I mean, the effect of it is so scary for these guys.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
that, you know, it scares the hell out of the establishment to see this taking place. Tom, your thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
By the way, we just got the report right now, Vinny, you told me, not a single survivor that we heard about. So tragic. We'll address that. And then Trump moves to prepare Guantanamo Bay for 30,000 criminal illegal aliens. And then signs the Bill Easing Deportation Act.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I agree.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Former Senator Bob Menendez, sentenced to 11 years, the guy with the gold and all the other stuff for corruption and bribery, is now saying southern New York is the most corrupt. And, hey, almost like asking the president to bail him out. And then we have a few things to show with RFK. And then a couple business stories with Starbucks that we'll address.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Rob, you want to go back to that? Is that Ratcliffe talking about it? She's asking her? Yes. Go for it. Play the clip.

And Vinny really, I don't know why, Vinny really, all night he's been asking, Pat, can we please cover this story? Plus size rapper who calls herself BBW, sues Lyft over driver, said she couldn't fit in the car. She weighs apparently 500 pounds. 490 pounds. That's her right there.

It makes you question the level of competency. If it takes you five years to identify. When you're trying to, like, what is it going to take for you to find it? You are the CIA. And how weird is it that you announce it a week after the president announced is, you know, sworn in. How is the timing of it? Oh, now you want to tell us? You couldn't tell it before?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Again, credibility in these institutions will go up under Trump's administration. I want to go to the next story. White House to offer buyouts to federal workers who won't return to office.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The White House offered bias to federal workers who refused to return to office under President Trump's order aiming to reduce the federal workforce and eliminate remote work policies implemented during COVID-19. Katie Miller, an advisor to the Department of Government Efficiencies, confirmed the email is being sent to more than 2 million people. Federal employees.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
A senior administration official justified the move stating we're five years past COVID and just 6% of federal employees work full-time in the office. That is unacceptable. The buyout will offer... cover approximately eight months of pay and benefits, according to NBC News, with White House aides estimating that between 5% to 10% of federal employees will take the deal.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Axios reported that the plan could save taxpayers $100 billion annually. The buyouts follow Trump's recent freeze on federal aid and an attempt to pass grant disbursement, which a federal judge temporarily blocked. Rob, which clip do you have for this one? Because it's...
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Put that one. Go for it.

She's suing Lyft. Yeah. She looks great. Yeah. Maybe we'll address that story as well. Maybe go front. It's 500 this morning, Vinny. She had breakfast. Before we get into the stories here with Byron and all the other things that we have going on, Gang, I want to tell you guys a couple things about... Rob, if you can go to vtnews.ai.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
By the way, you know what's wild when you're thinking about this, Tom? Do you remember four years ago, everybody was selling the idea of work from home is a great idea, and this is the fact that people don't accept it, and Jack Dorsey coming out and saying permanently for the history of Twitter, you can work from home, you never have to come into the office.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And when you go to vtnews.ai, first 100 days, if you can go to first 100 days. By the way, I think we have 89 days left. Can we just do this question real quick here together? I'm going to vote for mine as well because I think I'm up to date in my ranking. And I am way behind with everybody. But what is today's question, Rob, the prediction today?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Oh, my God, what a noble CEO Jack Dorsey is, and then Elon Musk comes in. And half the company gets fired, 3,750 employees. And by the way, in this story that we're reading, Tom, and I'm coming to you here, this story that we're reading about White House workers getting this offer, an insider story, a business insider story, which we know business insider, which way they lean as well.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
They said Trump's government worker buyouts are feeling a lot like Musk's Twitter in 2022. All the stuff that they're doing, which means, hey, coming in, here's an offer. Hey, move out the way. But one thing we are realizing very quickly, that common sense making a comeback, nobody works better from home than they do at an office. Nobody does. There's way too many distractions at home.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Now, this doesn't mean some of you guys, when I say this, some entrepreneurs, well, let me tell you something. As a solopreneur, I'm a laptop entrepreneur, and I do all this other stuff. Listen, I didn't tell you you don't have the right to go do it. I'm telling you.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
There's more efficiency when you're around your crew working together and it's becoming very clear that maybe 10% of people are more efficient out of home, but 90% of them are abusing the privileges and they're being exposed. Tom, your thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I'm so excited that this is being exposed.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
That's right. By the way, I'm telling you, when we were talking about this on the podcast, when we were talking about it on the podcast four years ago, 70% of America was convinced these guys were right. Mm-hmm. We took heat in our own comments. You guys have no idea. You're so selfish. You're so this. Adam, your thoughts on this.

I'll give mine. If Trump's, I'm going to say my answer is a in-person it's saying.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I say yes. Me too. Is what I'm saying. Especially with Chiefs and Mahomes. And that's for 590 points. Again, go to vtnews.ai and post your prediction.

It is.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I wouldn't expect anybody from that community want to try to unionize, especially somebody that's wanting to work for you. Philosophically, they're going to be on your page. You know what's the only time I agree with working from home? If you're getting paid commission, go for it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
If you're 1099, work for them all if you want to do it. Go ahead. See if you can pull up the results or not. If you don't sell, you don't make money, no, you want to stay home.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I'm okay with that. That's right. That part makes sense. W2, zero. Yeah. Zero. Do you know how many times we've had W2 employees working from home that's been successful?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I don't want to get into it right now because we just had a moment a couple weeks ago. I'm not going to be telling stories. The answer, Tom, look at Tom's face, everybody. Just look at his face. I read his face real quick. Not because it's Tom, because we just asked somebody a question. Although it might be Tom.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, but the point is that I am so glad all these things that people were trying to convince you that was good. Leave your job and go ask who cares, but threat them that if you don't do this, and you're going to say, listen, we had a guy that we hired him for $55,000. 60 days after working with us, a recruiter calls him and says, I have another job for $75,000.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So my COO at the time fears losing him because he doesn't want to go back and do the job of finding another person. Says, we have to give this guy a $75,000 offer. I said, you just started working with me three months. This is how you gain credibility or lose credibility with me. I'll let you make the decision. What do you want to do? Let's give him the raise. Go ahead.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Let's see how you handle this. 90 days later, the guy comes back and says, if you don't give me $120,000 raise, I got an offer to work for my mother company, 120. So then he doesn't. The guy goes back. Do you know those people that did that? When you go and do an interview and somebody says, so tell me about the last four years where you worked.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The end of a PBD podcast, you'll join us for 10, 15 minutes to tell us how you made all these predictions correctly, okay? And the competitors in the top 10 cannot be value attainment or line-holding employees, okay? If they are, and a lot of them are participating... They're not going to be able to compete in this. It's anybody that's not part of the company that'll compete for this.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And you hear the employee saying the following story. Well, I stayed home taking care of my dad because he was not doing well. No, it's called you had eight jobs. You don't want to tell us you had eight jobs. I ran a consulting firm for the last two years. No, you didn't.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's called you had a bad experience at a job, but you don't want to put them as a reference because I'm going to ask you, can I call your boss at the previous job? You can't put that out. These are red flags you'll learn of people that abused companies. When there's a big break in someone's resume, ask specifically what happened during that time. And if the story goes to...
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I was taking care of an aging elderly parent, and they have a wife and three kids, then how did you fund your expenses to do that? I ran a consultant from, can I talk to three of your clients that you did a consulting job for? Well, you know, it was private because we signed an NDN. Oh, okay, I got it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
You hear these scripts, you're like, you know what, guys, too many red flags, I'm not interested in this guy, let's move on to the next person. That's what happened during that time, and employers are now getting smarter asking questions to not be abused of the abuse that we took four years ago, because it was real. So the guys that stick around, take care of them.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The guys that stay loyal, take care of their families. The guys that were playing those games, that reputation is going to follow you for many, many years to come. Let's go to the next story. Next story I want to go to, Rob, is... Florida, where's the one with – there it is. So smugglers transporting because Trump's administration gave ICE a quota of 1,800 arrests per day across U.S.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And, Rob, I don't know if you have the clip on that one. Is this the clip of that one?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, if you can play that clip with the – so these guys are sitting there giving quotas. Just like anybody that's working a job, a sales job with a certain expectations, they're coming out saying, look – 1,800 a day, okay, set the quota per migration and customs. This is ICE. Required a minimum of 75 arrests per day for each of these agencies' offices, 25 offices.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So 75 arrests per day for the 25 offices. White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller right here. Rob, if you want to play the clip about the quota.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, so that's that part. And by the way, so far, according to this report, They're at 4,500 arrests since Trump's return to office. Okay, and that's why they're saying the numbers are not going to be where Trump wants it. I actually could believe the fact that Trump's not happy. He always wants more. That's what a driver's going to do.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
But then this goes with the story right next to it with smugglers transporting a van packed with 26 Chinese migrants. Yeah. Detained in Florida. Rob, if you have the clip on this one, is this the one, Rob?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541

So here as it says, it says, similar to the Chinese citizens found on a Toyota, on a U-Haul truck, After an abduction report, Coral Gables Police Chief Edward James Hudak revealed that the vehicles contained 16 Chinese females, 15 Chinese males, one male from Cuba, one female from Ecuador. Yeah, so that's these two instances that they had. Rob, is this a different clip of a different instance?

PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Oh, that's my guy. Yeah, I mean, him and many others. Left, right, center. Everybody sees you as a superstar. When we were in D.C., you getting up there, the applause, the enthusiasm with you is very high. Even to the point where, you know, you see that chart, Rob, if you can pull up. This literally happened yesterday.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
By the way, just to give you some numbers here, do you know the number of, they call it the unaccompanied alien children? There's two names, unaccompanied minor children and unaccompanied alien children. So both of them are pretty much the same thing, but let's just go with the UAC. Do you know in 2008 where President Bush was, it was his last year,
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Unaccompanied. Just walking. Let me say it one more time, guys. Unaccompanied. Children, do you know what the average age is? 11 years old. The median age is 13 years old. So the system that they have is broken through ICE because ICE is, you hear the stories that they talk about that one, they don't have the bandwidth. So look, we don't have the bandwidth. We don't have the system.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So 32,000 of these. They don't have the system to report to each other. So you know like how in insurance we build a software that the agent can see what is the status of a policy. The carrier can see and report it. The employees can see. Everybody can see what's going on with this one client. So the more eyes are on it, the more we can help the policy get approved.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So imagine they don't have a system to say, where is this kid at? Oh, he didn't even show up. The kid didn't show up to the court. Who's following up with what's going on with the, who's, Mallorca's being asked the question. So what do you guys do? Do you guys go back and investigate to see what's going on with the kids?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
You know, and the lady from ORR, do you know this lady, Marcus, I think her name is, Brandon, if you can send the clip, she's being interviewed and she says, the leader of ORR, type in ORR. The Office of Refugee Resettlement.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Right, the Office of Refugee Resettlement. So they're asking her, hey, so what do you do? Brandon, can you send that clip to Rob, please, that we were looking at yesterday? How often after... Vinny, you're about to lose your mind when you hear this data.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
So do you know what percentage of these 300,000 kids are assigned to family? Less than a third. Of 300,000 kids? Less than a third are given to family. So the other two-thirds are giving to somebody, and then there is no follow-up to see what's going on with the kids, school and food, all this stuff. So they don't know if it's human trafficking, labor trafficking, sex trafficking.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
There is no follow-up. And so they said, well, why is that? Well, because he mentioned this, which is a very good point. While this whole thing was taking place, you remember we were in communication with Tom Holman, Bernard Carrick. We were trying to go to the border to do that stuff, and every time there was something coming up, we're planning on doing a podcast on the border, right? Right.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Guys are sending me proposals. Listen, Pat, to be able to get $10 million out, you're going to need this many trucks. You're going to need security. You're going to need people to go chase them.

So when you're hearing these stories being talked about, here's the lady, Rob. Did you find a clip where she's being asked about?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
But it's that one right there. The one you're on, it's with Josh Hawley asking her questions.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yes. Are you kidding me? So she's not even denying it, that they know about this, right? Then you look at the report to say, okay, so let's see how many calls of traffic and abuse of migrant children are coming in. Go back to that one that you had, Rob. Look at this here, guys. Zoom in. So that's 2018 to 2021, 2022 under Biden. Blue is reports of abuse or neglect.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
This is what they're going through. So for us to sit there and say, let's send more money to Ukraine, so Ukraine's more important than, I mean, let's send more money. It's almost as if we were talking with Brandon, and it almost feels like someone is benefiting from looking away. Now, I don't know if that's the case or not, but these are not complicated things that we're looking at.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's pure data. If a stock goes from $8,000 to $149,000, In 14 years, what do you say? Wow. Yeah. $8,000 to $149,000. It's pretty solid. You tell me what goes from $8,000 in 2008 to $149,000. Oh, you know what does? The number of unaccompanied alien children to 2008 to today. You don't want to go figure that part out? Where are these people? Where are these kids? What are they doing?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's a travesty what's going on. So the fact that Tom Holman's out there, him and Kristi Noem were out there, right, being questioned about some of these things. Rob, if you have that... And one of our old friends, I think, is in the back. If you can play this clip, go for it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The way he answers it, it's like, what are you talking about? We've been doing it for a while.

But you see, that was a different way of me offering Ferragamo shoes to Governor DeSantis, and he didn't want to take the shoes. And I was kindly giving some nice shoes to him. He didn't want to take it, which I fully understand. By the way, if you're saying... He didn't take Ferragamo's. He didn't take the shoes I offered him. By the way, there were... How nice were they, Vinny?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541

And by the way, didn't Rambo, Stallone do a movie on human trafficking that came out a couple years ago? Didn't he do that? If you haven't seen it, I think it's worth watching. Didn't do, I don't know if it was like something everybody talked about, but it's worth watching. It's about him going to Mexico trying to rescue a young girl that's trapped in a sex trafficking ring.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
highly, highly recommend watching this flick. And when you talk about Francis Fox Piven, you know what I love about the debate with her and Thomas Sowell. Remember that one from back in the 50 years ago?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It was on Free to Choose, wasn't it?

when you see the exchange between the two, and she's trying to say, well, you don't understand what you're going through. Thomas Sowell, man, he is a- I just finished a book that your son, Tico, told me to read. Did you finish it? The reader.

Listen, if you can consume 40 hours of content of Milton Friedman and Thomas Sowell, you'll never be the same ever again. If you can go through 40 hours of content of these guys, you'll never look at the world the same way ever again. Let's go to the next story. Rob, passenger jet. With 64 broad, collided with Army helicopter while landing at Reagan Airport near D.C.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
This tragic event, we've seen these clips. If you want to play this clip, Rob, there's multiple different angles. This is one of them. It's the one at the bottom, right, Rob?

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's coming. It's coming.

There's the explosion. Okay. So you're seeing this. United Airlines... Sorry, American Airlines Flight 5342 carrying 60 passengers and four crew collided with a UH-60 Blackhawk Army helicopter on a training flight near Ronald Reagan Airport right before 9 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The FAA confirmed that the crash occurred just over three miles south of the White House and the Capitol in some of the most controlled airspace in the world. Video footage captured two sets of lights.

Consistent with aircraft appearing to join in a fireball, the air traffic controller constructed PAT-25 pass behind the CRJ moments before the impact, but the plane lost altitude rapidly and its transponder stopped transmitting about 2,400 feet short of the runway. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser announced, we are going to recover all fellow citizens, but... declined to confirm fatalities.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I think they just announced that not one survivor from them. And Rob, which one is this? Do you have the traffic air controller talking to each other? Is this the one or is that a... This is one. Go for it. Play the clip.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Rob, do you have the other one where the air traffic controllers appear to try to stop collision? Yes.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
This is from BBC Story, if you have it. I just sent it to you. Let me see if we have the recording of it. Yeah, if you can see what they're saying here. After the commercial, let's see what it is. Let me see this one here. Trump even tweets about this. Okay, go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
The crash hasn't happened yet or it's happened already, Rob?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I need you to land.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Oh, they're trying to prevent it. This is before the crash.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Wow. Obviously, a lot more is going to come out. And can you go to President's reaction to this? He tweeted something. The airplane was on a perfect and routine line approach to the airport. The helicopter was going straight to the airport for an extended period of time. It is a clear night. The lights on the plane were blazing. Why didn't the helicopter go up or down or turn?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Why didn't the control tower tell the helicopter what to do instead of just asking if they saw the plane? This is a bad situation that looks like it should have been prevented. Not good. Tom, your thoughts on this story here.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
I don't know if this is the one on the plane, though. I don't know if this is the one. I mean, obviously, we're going to find out as the investigation gets done. The chopper, like he's saying, your job is to be looking for things. You fly a chopper in a different way than you fly a plane. Right.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Because, you know, it's a very different lens to have that, especially in a place like three miles away from the White House, like from you're right at Reagan National Airport.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
That's the point. That's what he's saying. They were literally about to land, and this happens. Well, again, prayers goes out to the entire family, and I am sure we're going to learn more about what happened with this tragic event. Let's go to the Jim Acosta story. Jim Acosta. is at CNN. He gets credit for helping President Trump coin the phrase fake news, right?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
He is the originator when he got up there and did what he did. Tom, he's trying to get a, you know, CNN is firing 200 people. Their top line revenue dropped $400 million. They're really taking a hit. And then while all this stuff is happening, They offer him a job at midnight. Right, Tom? It's a show at midnight that they offer him. Yep.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And this is the kind of a way of saying, look, if you want to walk, walk. But we're not trying to give you a job. What do you want to do? And he decides to walk, and I think this is the last clip of his, Rob, that he can put this. Is this the video or is this the tweet that he posted the video on?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Okay, so I want to watch both of them, but go ahead. Play the first one first. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Is this on Twitter?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Can you go to his Twitter account? Because this is the one world he's about to enter that I don't know if he's going to like or not. If you can go to his account, Jim Acosta, zoom in a little bit if you could. So this is the latest one, right, to go to Substack. So go a little bit lower, go a little bit lower, go a little bit lower. And then there's another clip of him.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
with the main video, the last farewell message that I'm sure you have. Go up a little bit. Is that the one? Yes. Okay, zoom in a little bit, if you could. Zoom in a little bit. I want to show something to the audience. It's got 3.4 million views on the bottom right, 116,000 likes, 23,000 retweets. Oh, but he's turned off comments. Oh, wait, why would you? Jim.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
When you're in the social media world, you are no longer protected by CNN. You have to allow people to tell you what they think about you, and some of it is very painful. And I don't know if you're going to like that, buddy. I mean, it's a different story when you're reading a teleprompter and you're getting out there. That's easy. You've got good writers. You're doing great things.

RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
This is why a guy like Tony Hinchcliffe and some of these comedians that are getting up there and just doing their thing with trying to come up with stuff on the cuff, it's not easy to do. When I watch Vinny do some of his work, I'm blown away by it. I will never look at animals the same way because of Vinny and the stuff that he does with Animal Voices, right? It's tough to be a comedian.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
It's tough to be a content creator. But you're about to be told by audience that don't agree with you, and dude, I just don't know how you're going to handle it. I don't. As an independent content creator yourself now... Maybe, you know, you're going to be having to make certain adjustments. You're going to realize how the field really feels about you.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
And I'm sure deep down inside, this guy cannot wait to get another job offer to go to traditional mainstream media. Traditional where you're at least protected by a bigger brand. Because in the free market of content creators... People will tell you when they can't stand you. And I wonder if we can handle that. Byron, your thoughts. I'm sure you're devastated when this was announced. I was so sad.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Oh, yeah.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Okay, so then maybe asking a different question. How close are you with Governor, by the way, Governor DeSantis?
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Yeah, and I'm going to wrap up on this story, Vinny, because you keep texting me.
PBD Podcast
RFK Jr. Hearing, Trump & Guantánamo Bay, American Airlines Crash w/ Rep. Byron Donalds | PBD Podcast | Ep. 541
Plus-size rapper. who calls herself BBW, okay, sues Lyft after driver said she couldn't fit in the car, okay? So first, this is the Lyft driver denying Kerr, and she's recording Kim, and she posts this, right? So, you know, Rob, if you wanna play this clip here, go for it.

Yeah, because they need to order. Because what? He goes, Uber, Uber, Uber XL. Uber XL. You can pause that rap. So plus size rapper Dank Demos, also known as Dejoa Blanding, soon left after Detroit Drive allegedly refused her drive, telling her she was too big. This happened on January 29th.

And told the driver, I can't fit in the car. The driver, identifying himself as Ibrahim, responded, believe me, you can't. Adding that there was no room in the back and that his tires wouldn't be able to handle the weight. He later told her she should request Excel. DeMasso describes himself as BBW. Wait. Look at the dog, man. Pay that queen lawsuit, sharing that she once weighed 554.

So she's lost 60 pounds. Speaking to Fox 2. I've been in cars some of the time. Anyways, so her viral TikTok video of exchange has been viewed more than 340,000 times as of Tuesday. Vinny, why are you so deeply concerned about the story?

There's no reason for him to have to continue this conversation with his BBW. I'm just curious to know if Lyft's going to pay. Because if Lyft pays...

And it's the last 15 minutes. And everybody starts asking different questions. This one kid asks a question. So, Patrick, let me ask you. If you were me, what would you invest in right now? Would it be gold? Would it be commodities? Would it be futures? Would it be stocks? Would it be this? Would it be Ethereum? He's asking me all these questions. And I'm like, how old are you?
PBD Podcast

Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
That's like 10 what? He says, I made $10,000 last year. Living at home.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
He's 19 years old. So I said, you're making $10,000 and you're asking me where to put your money with futures and all this stuff. I said, brother, what you need to fix is you have an income problem. You don't have an investment problem. You have an income problem. Let's go fix that income problem that you have. And look, I get it. I was in the Army. I got out of the Army as an Army E4 specialist.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I was making 20 grand a year. It's not a lot of money when you're making, you know, you're trying to find a way to increase your income. For people that are watching this, this is what's going on right now. You have to ask yourself if in what way this is impacting your income, what you're doing to protect yourself from this.
PBD Podcast

You know, some people are kind of going through and then they're feeling it and there's seasons to it that you're going through. So I've always been from the school of thought of having cash. I think the biggest reaction from last night's event was when I told the story about having cash in place. for opportunities.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
There's nothing more evergreen than always making sure you have an emergency fund, always making sure you have money in place, always making sure you live below your means. It's such an evergreen, boring concept to talk about, but it applies to everyone. The more you can do that, like I remember when I was running an insurance company, and let's just say we only had $100,000 in the bank.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Florida considers bill to roll back child labor laws to fill jobs once held by undocumented immigrants. Greenlanders are angry and confused over unwanted U.S. visit. The $20 burrito you order from DoorDash could cost you $70. Wait till you hear this story. It's very interesting. Gen Z's splurging on pricey concert tickets, which may be the reason why they can't afford to buy a house.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Just the first year, we got all the way down to $13,000. The way I would look at $100,000 is I have 100 $1,000 decisions to make. I have only 10 $10,000 decisions to make. I have only four $25,000 decisions to make. So I'm like, oh, this is kind of scary, right?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So if you got 10 grand in a bank and you're trying to do your thing with your husband, your wife, your kids, your family, like, dude, I only have 10 $1,000 decisions to make. I only have $50, $200 decision. That's not a lot. So you got to make sure you do whatever you can to increase your savings.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And if it means living below your means and talking to the family about that trip that you were going to spend $4,000 that you shouldn't, don't. Save that money right now. While you're going through it. Okay, let me get to the next story here. That $20 burrito you ordered from DoorDash could now cost you $70. A new DoorDash and Klarna partnership. Rob, do you have a video on this? I do.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Watch this one here, folks. This is a little bit, again, there's a reason why companies like Klarna exist, and they're fantastic for the right people, but now doing it for DoorDash when it comes down to ordering burrito? Watch this here.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So we get it. But here's the thing. It went from the BNPL model. We've talked about this many, many times. In 2019, the Buy Now, Pay Later model did $2 billion in loans. That's in 2019. Okay. It went from $2 billion in 2019 to three years later. Ready? To $34 billion in loans. from 2 billion to 34 billion. Rob, what is the total BNPL right now in 2025? Can you see it? BNPL loans in 2025.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Does it tell you? Let's see if it comes up. I got one source on 2024, 132. Wow. Wait a minute, that's insane. According to a report by FinTech Futures, the global, global, but what is it in the U.S.? Global is $560 billion. And then United says the BNPL payments only go to...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
In 2019, it's 2 billion. 2022, 34 billion. Today, 122 billion. Tom, your thoughts on the story?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So the calculation, Rob, the calculation, Tom, on this DoorDash burrito, this guy says, Robert Lawless, University of Illinois law professor specializing in consumer finance, says, I just don't think it's an advisable way to be paying. for your DoorDash, your $20 burrito could soar to $70 with fees, tips, and potential late charges announced last week.

What is this, Rob? So the total credit card debt in end of 2024 was $1.2 trillion. I remember that. The average credit card household, $11K. The average credit card balance per person, $67.30 by the end of it. By the way, this makes me think about the one story that, you know, with all the damages that they're doing to Tesla vehicles. Yeah, of course. You know, all the stuff.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
You know what it's doing, though. There was even a clip, Rob. Did you see this? Fox News reached out about this one guy who, I don't know if you guys saw this or not, absolutely disrespectful what this guy did. Probably one of the worst vandalizations. Do you know which one I'm talking about, Rob, or no? I don't. Oh, the guy near the airport? Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So this guy is by the airport, and he's at the airport. He sees this Tesla. He gets out of the Tesla. Can you make it bigger, Rob?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And he thought he wasn't going to get caught. Watch this. Watch this. What he does to this Tesla.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And look at the irresponsible car on the back that's going.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
He works out. But I want you to think about this. As crazy as this is, and by the way, this is a regular. Let me tell you, while this is happening, we're having business meetings, and somebody's watching out the window saying, what the hell happens on this campus, right? I got a guy the other day comes. It's a very serious conversation about a whistleblower.

Stephen A. Smith and LeBron have been going back and forth. LeBron decides to go. He rarely does any podcasts, but he decides to go on the, what is it, the Pat McAfee podcast.

Vinny's walking around running in a dress and a spandex. I don't know what it was. It was that polyester shirt.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Here's the one thing, Rob, that you were talking about. You have a Tesla yourself, right?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Okay. What have you noticed with the cost of insurance for Tesla lately?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yeah, that's interesting. And what does the story say here? Tesla insurance costs could surge. Can you go a little bit lower to see what it's saying? So Musk rejected criticism on X, that he owns postal contracts. Okay, so he's suing somebody that keeps calling him that, the Bowman guy, right? Yeah, Jamal Bowman. He's claiming, he's saying, threatening that he may sue him.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
But can you go down to see if there's any data here? So how much does it cost to insure? Okay. So with a price tag of $35,000 for its cheapest car on the market, insurance to cover them already expensive more than other cars go a little bit lower. So the average cost of full coverage for a car insurance for a Tesla Model 3 is $3,495 a year. That seems like a lot.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So that's $280 a month, okay, according to bank rates. That is about $800 more per year than the national average of $2,678 for a Toyota Camry, according to Bankrate. However, Model X and plate drivers pay much higher rates. Comparatively, average BMW i4 insurance costs are closer to Model 3 $3,792. In general, EVs are now 23% more expensive to insure than comparable to a gas model.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Why would that be the case, though, with an average annual... Full coverage of 33% for 23% more time. Tesla Model 3, Model Y, Model X are more expensive to insure in February 2020. Confirm the cost of full insurance for Tesla Model 3. according to Insurify, increased 30% last year to $43.62.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
This is a 25% higher in cost than the comparable Mercedes-Benz A-Class, the average cost of a full coverage. So to me, Rob, can you type in Tesla cost of insurance and go to news? Just type in Tesla on Google, Tesla cost of insurance and news. And can you go to news and zoom in a little bit? Okay, so three weeks ago, our team is a Tesla 3.5, it's a poor industry reputation.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And then I think Stephen A. also said he's a liar. He called him a lot of different things. And it was pretty nasty, but we'll talk about that. ICE agents detain Tufts University's grad students after pro-Palestinian opinion piece. Snow White, producer, son, says, you have to see this Instagram post, by the way. It's fantastic.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Okay, Tesla insurance has been pricey. Will vandalism make it higher? That's a what? That's a CNN story? Can you click on that three days ago? Can we just see what stats they're giving in there? Zoom in to see if you see any numbers. And a damaged Tesla could cost $1,300 more to repair than a gasoline-powered car, according to Insurify. Why, though? We read those numbers.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Full-size model XSUV is $54,000, $59,000. Got it. Out of the 50 most popular cars in the United States, the top four most expensive to insure. What? Did you know that? Tom, did you know that or no?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Out of the 50 most popular cars in the U.S., the top four most popular to insure are Teslas. So premiums could go up if there are more claims for vandalism. However, it would take a lot more than vandalism incidents to get to the point. Right now, the incidents are sporadic and anecdotal with documented vandalism on the Pacific Coast, Northeast, but drivers on car insurance companies.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Okay, go back. Go back to the news, Rob. Let's see what else we got. KRXI, Tesla vandals, and some raised questions about insurance rates. That's how long ago, 12 hours ago. Let's go on that to see if they have any kind of studies or rates that they're showing. Zoom in a little bit.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
You know we're getting a $500 every six months premium, and we're paying out of $20,000 on one of our every two cars. It could go a little bit lower. Go a little bit lower. Just look for – okay, nothing here. Let's go to the next story. So economic finance a day ago. Do you own a Tesla? Your insurance rate could spike as vandals target cars across the U.S. Go a little lower. Go a little lower.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I'm going to go a little lower. Okay. What's that premium? Okay. Here we go. So vehicles to insure with the Model 3, same thing as we read in the other one. Okay, so can you do me a favor? Can you type in on chat, GBT, see if this will come up, how many reported Tesla, you know, what do you call it, vandalism stats have we seen? You know, is there a number like police report in a certain sector?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Like, you remember they were stealing that one car in certain counties of L.A. And so the insurance specifically for that car went up only in that one county. Do you guys remember the car?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
He made video on how to steal those cars.
PBD Podcast

Yeah, my dad, the producer of enormous piece of Disney IP with hundreds of millions of dollars on the line, had to leave his family to fly across the country to reprimand his 20-year-old employee for dragging her personal politics into the middle of promoting the movie for which she signed a multimillion-dollar contract to get paid and do publicity for.
PBD Podcast

This is called adult responsibility and accountability, and her actions clearly hurt her. The film's box office, free speech does not mean you're allowed to say whatever you want in your private employment without repercussions. Tens of thousands of people worked on that film and she hijacked the conversation for her own immature desires.

Number one, snack index. People buy fewer snacks during recessions with evidence from 2008 Great Recession showing reduced consumption of snacks, fast food, and fresh produce. General Mills, maker of Chex Mix and Nature Valley's granola bars reported a 5% drop. in net sales in Q3 of 2025. We're not even in Q3. Is it orders? I don't know why it says Q3 here.

Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568

So go a little bit lower, Rob, if you could. Right there, right there. There you go. This is Remy Ramirez. Double 46, 67 million. 56 million. It's a huntsman. Go a little bit lower to see what are the numbers we see. Critics have been kind, giving the film a decimal, 44% on Rotten Tomatoes. When the audience scores, give them 74%.

PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Bob Iger, we need to be entertaining. This isn't the first time Disney has scrutiny. Infusing messaging is not what we're up to, Iger said. We need to be entertaining. His comments were likely aimed at critics like Peltz, who accused Disney of leaning too far into woke storytelling at the expense of... financial performance.

Number two, mini alcohol bottle indicator. Shoppers switch to mini bottles of alcohol during economic uncertainty instead of full-sized ones. And CEO of Lawson Whiting says the reason small sizes are doing well is more because of the cyclical inflation and its consumer debts pinched. Okay, so if you're ordering those mini alcohol bottles, that's an indicator.

You just go to five years. Just go to five years. So right there, go to 197.

How good of a P.E. ratio is 32.66?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So, meaning they could... I mean, there's room to fall. A lot of room to fall. So, if this was a 20x P.E. ratio, you're looking at a $100 billion company. So, I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen here, but...
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Sometimes when you're trying to make a move and make changes in an organization, the way Trump does it, Trump came in and he took the biggest company in the world and he made immediate changes in 60 days. Iger needs to be inspired a little bit by Trump to come in and make immediate changes. Step down, bring somebody else to make immediate changes. They're using the five-year method.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Well, in the movie business, it takes a long time to do that. Nothing takes longer than government. Nothing. So if a president can come in and move things within 60 days, Bob, you can come and move things as well. But you're moving super slow. And one guy's making you look bad. And it's a different executive of the biggest company in the world. That's Trump. Tom.

Three, lipstick index, coined by Leonard Lauder. Billionaire heir to Estee Lauder in 2001 when lipstick sales rose during a recession. Lauder's theory. Lipstick sales and the health of the economy were in inverse proportion to one another. Sales rose in 2001 by 11%, boomed in 2008 during Great Recession, and great recently despite high inflation. Interesting. Lipstick. Underwear index.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
What is this one? Popularized by former federal judge Alan Griezmann suggests that men delay buying new underwear during downturns.

PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I have enough underwear right now that I'm not open to start a side business, just so you know that. So if anybody's struggling, guys, my dad's got cases in our house. I don't know. He's worried about underwear. Yeah. But I love you, Dad. I know you've been doing that for a while. So sales dipped in 2008. Same thing with underwear. Hemline index.

Anyways, but we're still going to do the PBD podcast. even though we're going on fumes right now, but it's just another day. All right, so let's go through a couple things we got here.

It claims that skirts shorten in good economic and lengthen in bad ones. That is so weird. From the 1920s. So in good economy, ladies wear shorter skirt. In bad economy, they wear longer skirts. How the hell does that make any sense? Next one. Cardboard box indicator. In early 2009 during recession, shipments declined drastically and manufacturers operated rates fell. This one's real. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Diaper rash indicator. Diaper rash. Parents... Rationed diapers costing $500 to $900 a year during rough times, increasing diaper rash, and ointment sales.

After all this man has done for money, now he understands many components. Keep going lower. Okay, so that's that. Putin has only three. Okay, so now it's getting into stuff for many, many years. I don't know. Can I ask you a question?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yeah, for sure. If Putin said it, look, if you're a world leader and you make comments, I have to sit there and think. is this a distraction comment? Because sometimes you'll make a comment to get people to go look here and all the time you're over here, right? So I understand that. You're supposed to understand these types of things as a world leader to throw people off.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So could this be a throwing off people? I don't think so. What are you throwing people off of? Throwing people off of this topic, let's just say if you're trying to do something like that, you want to throw people off, you should have talked about what's going on with Canada and Mexico and try to poke the bear to annoy him in a different way. Not to say something like this. This doesn't...

Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I don't know. I'm not in it. Again, I'm not inside of it to be able to call 17 people and say, what was this about, and be able to process it with generals and leaders and political guys. I'm not inside of it.

Click on a Newsweek one. Let's see what the five takeaways are. Let's see what Newsweek says. Go a little bit lower, Rob, for the top five. Why does it matter with the rumors of Putin's death? Zelensky may have been simply referring on how leaders live forever, but Zelensky's insistence is to continue to isolate Putin under Kiev. Okay, so he's saying it just because he's going to eventually die.

What to know? Zelensky took questions from several outcasts. Wine-raging interview followed by talks on Saudi Arabia and Russia and partial overseas fire on the Black Sea. But Zelensky said he hoped the U.S. would stand strong in the face of Russian demands to lift sanctions as a condition. OK, go a little bit lower for the Black Sea. Putin will die soon. Zelensky said that the U.S.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
should not bring Putin out of political and economic isolation. That right now was one of the most dangerous moments. The Russian leaders wanted to remain in power until his death. And he had ambitions beyond Ukraine, which was... Why U.S. and Europe stayed? Okay. He added he will die soon. Zelensky gave no further detail on face questions about the health, which Kremlin has been dismissed. Okay.

Steve Witkoff knows real estate. Go a little bit low, Rob, to see whether U.S. influenced by Russian disinformation. U.S. remains... What are the five points that they're talking about?

I don't know why he's saying this.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I don't know why he's saying it. Anyways, let's go to the next story. Maybe we'll find out. But I would be so furious if I'm Trump and I'm trying to broker a deal and you're talking like this. What the F are you doing? What are you doing? Anyways.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yeah, I got two stories I want to go to. Let's go to the LeBron one. So LeBron James addresses Stephen A. Smith's confrontation for the first time. And so where does LeBron go? To the direct competitor of Stephen A. Smith? He goes to the Pat McAfee show, okay? Just to say, hey, I'm going to this guy over you. And we know he's doing that. The guys that follow these stories know what's going on.

PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Immediately. That man put his hands on me. By the way, to his defense, he came back and said, guys, play the entire clip. Because he did say, nah, he would have destroyed me. But I'm just saying, I would have reacted to it. Of course he qualified it, but then LeBron went and posted this on his Instagram account.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
So, obviously, there's a lot of fun going on with this here. But he had a full-on reaction. But before I go there, Adam, your thoughts, and then I'll show you the clip on Stephen A. Well, you know, we're talking about goats here.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
It's competitive. Okay. So it's competitive. Play this clip.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Is that it, Rob? Yes, sir. Yeah, there's a clip. There's a clip there that he says LeBron is a liar. He's shady. He's this. He's that. He's this. And I'll try to find that clip.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yes. This is it. Go for it. Play this clip. This is it. Go ahead.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yeah. So – and by the way, that's the criticism. He says another story. He says, you know, LeBron's always been the guy that's been the passive-aggressive guy. And he says he's the guy that will say something to your face and then go behind your back. I don't trust this guy. He said this straight up about – about what he called it, LeBron, and how he is.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
And then later on, the topic of discussion came up about Michael Jordan. Rob, do you have that one? I do. Okay, so he's asked about Michael. He says, how often do you guys speak, right? And this is so funny because of— He said, never, I believe. Yeah, well, he says he explains why Michael said we can't speak. I don't know if he says it in this clip, but go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
At the top 75, the 75 best players, that one thing, where do they rank Michael? Where do they rank LeBron?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
They do because they came in a 75th anniversary, ranked 76 basketball legends. What year was this, Rob? 2022. Okay, that's, yeah, okay, he won the, okay, so go see who's in the top 10. Who do they have in the top 10? All the way down.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Yeah, for sure. By the way, he said something else in the podcast. Okay, let's go through, let's see who they have. Durant, 12, ahead of Olajuwon. I don't know, Shaq is 11? Okay. I don't know about that. Let's see that. Kobe above Shaq. No, but that's not the point. Kobe 10th. Keep going. Keep going. Oscar 9th. Oscar Robertson. He won one championship. Mr. Triple-double. Tim Duncan.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Can you say how many championships Oscar Robertson won? He averaged a typical. He was like Russell Westbrook. He did. He was Russell Westbrook. That's not. Back in the day. How many championships did he win? Did Oscar Robertson win? I thought it was only one he won. Yeah, he won one championship. Why do you put him ahead of? That's so weird to me. Who the hell? I can't trust the rest of it.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
12-time NBA. I cannot trust the rest of it. Was Kareem there at that time? Keep going, Rob. I have no respect for this list now.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Here we go. Give it a freaking break. He's got five championships.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
All right. So now you put Bill Russell. 10 championships. How many?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
But look at his stats. 15.1, 20, 20 and a half. Now you put him here because of the championships. 22 rebounds, BBD. I totally get it. But then put Rodman in there with 17. Rodman didn't have 22 rebounds. Keep going. Keep going. Chamberlain. Wilt. Five ahead of. That was 100. He deserves to be in the top five. I'm with that. Keep going. Magic Johnson, four.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Dude, I interviewed Magic in front of a couple thousand people at Fort Worth Convention Center and in front of everybody. He says, let me make it very clear. Kobe is the greatest Laker of all time. They have him at fourth place and Kobe at 10th place? Give it a break. Keep going, Rob. Keep going. Kareem three. Okay, that's fine. That argument can be made for sure. Keep going.

Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
There's comments out there. Fair play.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
No problem. Walk me through this, please. Because he didn't disrespect. He just said he doesn't belong in the league. If, let's just say, somebody gets on the podcast, they say, you don't belong in the league to do podcasts. When we started doing podcasts, you're not a podcaster. You're not a this. You're not a that. What do you think of creating content? Yeah, you're supposed to say that.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
I said that to a guy today. A guy next to me today says, let me tell you, I think I'm in the top 1% of podcasters in the world. And he's got 4,000 subscribers. And I'm trying to compliment him. Then all of a sudden, he becomes so hype. And I'm like, bro. Forgive me for complimenting you. I actually, let me take that back. You're not in the top 1% of podcasters. Now you sound arrogant.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Now you sound entitled. Now you sound this. And I don't even know if you're asking questions. For the first seven years of us doing YouTube, every other month we would hire a consultant for YouTube to learn about what stats and datas and what mistakes we're making. We didn't know if we were going to be in the space for this long to improve. Till today, we're trying to find a way to improve.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Constantly, we're coming up with new strategies and things that we're doing. No, I have no problem with that kind of feedback being given. You disrespect, it's a different story. And I don't think Stephen A crossed the line with disrespect.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
No, but LeBron is a passive-aggressive guy, and LeBron is a guy that thinks there's never been a superstar in the history of the NBA that thinks as highly of himself as LeBron does.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
There's never been one that thinks highly of themselves as LeBron does. That is such a drama. Look, to me, it's mathematically impossible for LeBron to be... I have him as second, right? But I can easily see somebody making an argument to show there's videos of LeBron. He gets hit like this. He touches his head, and he starts scratching it like he got punched in the head.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
How can a man take such abuse? That's the videos, right? No, I don't know. I just don't see that.
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Kobe averaged 7.2 points a game his rookie season. He averaged 15 points his second season. Rob, can you go to his stats?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568
Is that minutes? That's minutes. The first one is minutes, second one is, yeah. But LeBron... So you see, yeah, 7.2, I said 7.2, 7.6. Second year average, 15. Then he went to 99, then 22, and then boom. This is Kobe?
PBD Podcast
Zelenskyy's OMINOUS Putin Threat | PBD Podcast | Ep. 568

You guys really bought the small ones?

I'm like, well, you're asking good questions that people can ask, but at the same time, what Bezos and the owner of LA Times and the owner of these other companies are realizing... People are not resonating with it. You know what report came out yesterday? Here's a report that came out yesterday. Rob, I'm going to send this to you. Two things I'm going to send to you. If you can show this one.
PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
This report came out yesterday about, do you have the trust in the media, Rob? Is that one that was in there that I saved? Or no, you don't have that one. There's a report that came up yesterday. about the trust in media for 2024. It's the latest one that was trending all over the place yesterday. It showed 31%. It's the lowest, lowest trust. If you can search it, is that it? Yeah, 31%.
PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
It's the lowest and that's the latest update. Look at that. Look at that. The lowest ever in the history of America. What do you think people are saying right now? People are flat out saying, I don't trust you. I don't believe you. So Bezos has to make some adjustments and he has to fire people. By the way, MSNBC fires Joey Reed. The new replacement, I was watching him yesterday.
PBD Podcast

By the way, again, this is America. You can do whatever you want to do, whatever your choice is. This is your replacement. So he's like the gay prince. What MSNBC said, this is what's so weird. I want to be in the boardroom just to watch. I would sign an NDA just to see how they're processing these issues. You thought this is where America wants you to go more, over Joy Reid.
PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
So we had Joy Reid and you're going to this. So what you're saying is the Democrats want you to go further left. That's what the audience is telling you. Oh yeah, that's brilliant. That's what they're telling you. Jeff Bezos is saying America wants us to stay in the middle as much as possible. MSNBC, this new person is like, nope, I was at CNN before, now I'm at MSNBC. We're going even further.

Guess what MSNBC proved to be? They're not adjusting. Bezos has proven he is adjusting. Zuck has proven he is adjusting. Quite a few different outlets have proven they're adjusting. When you look at news commentary, TV shows, When 507 out of 507 most viewed shows of the year in 2025 are all from Fox, what does it tell you? You know how easy it should be for Democrats to start a show now?
PBD Podcast
Epstein Files Release, Trump Gold Card Visa, Andrew Tate In US, Newsom's Podcast | PBD Podcast | Ep. 553
Because you have an enemy in there. You should perform better. How the hell are you not? Because maybe your ideas suck today. I don't know. Maybe they do. And you can't even get Bill Maher to agree with you. And Bill Maher is one of your biggest spokespersons. He is your press secretary. One of them. You've lost him a little bit. So, yeah, kudos to Bezos to be where he's at.

Here's what I'm thinking about. It's one of two things, okay? And I'm going to give you which one I think it is. It's one... The contract negotiation isn't going as planned. And he has said, F it. I'm out. This is how you guys want to treat me? I'm out. I can go make my own money and get my own attention and get my own eyeballs. I think his channel either crossed a million or is about to.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
This guy's going to get eyeballs. People are going to listen to what Stephen A has to say. That's one, okay, where the negotiation is not going right and he's not happy. Let me tell you what number two is. Number two is capitalism will force you to go back to common sense. I think capitalism has kicked Bob Iger's ass in ways no one else physically has in his entire life. Let me explain to you why.

You write a book that everybody reads right of a lifetime. You replace yourself with Bob Shaypak. You leave, first co-CEO, then he's going to take over. Then you leave, then it screws up. You want to run for president, then you have to come back to save Disney, to save ABC. Valuation goes from $400 billion to $200 billion under your reign. Nobody likes what you're doing.

You keep producing shitty movies after shitty movies after shitty movies. Yesterday, I went to the theater to watch Sonic 3. And while we're going out there, the commercial for that one movie with that one girl talking about, I don't know what that Disney movie was, where the girl was being woke. What was that one movie with Snow White? Snow White is over here. And I just like that.

I'm like, you destroyed a movie that I will not take my kids to go watch. Then Wicked going to me. And anyways, these are separate topics here. But I think if Bob Iger is the man that I think he is, You cannot take a business and go from being a low-level employee to being a CEO of a $400 billion company by pure luck. And Bob did go on a ride of a lifetime. Bob did negotiate with Steve Jobs.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Bob did go out and buy biggest franchises like Star Wars. Bob did go out there and do a bunch of stuff that others couldn't do. When Steve Jobs didn't want to have anything to do with Disney, Bob is the one that brought Steve Jobs to the table. When there were so many people that didn't want to do anything, this guy's probably one of the best sit-down guys we've had in the last 30 years.

So there's so many good that he's done. But I hope capitalism, every once in a while, you're going to get your ass handed to you. No matter how good you are, all of us in business, you're going to have some public losses. I hope capitalism gets him to realize, I like that Stephen A is talking the way that he is. I like that Stephen A is challenging people. I like that he's getting eyeballs.

The other day, Stephen A posted a clip that got 10 million plus views, and it was shared all over the place on X. What about if we leverage this? What about if I pay attention to this? Maybe this is what the American people want. Maybe this is what people are interested in. You know what? What if we bring him in and then we use him to go on The View, to go on everything else, to be a regular?

What if we have him to have a multi-talented guy that's doing both ESPN and other shows on ABC? And what if this contract becomes bigger than ABC, bigger than ESPN? It becomes an ABC type of a contract. That widens his reach. That widens the amount of money that he can make. I am hoping it's the second. I'm hoping the rumors about the kind of money Stephen A is about to get is factual. He gets it.

The one story that I'm really excited to go a little bit deeper on is how President-elect Trump is using Panama Canal as a form of a negotiation. And I just love that he's going there. We're going to talk about that. There's a lot of history with Panama Canal. And there is a angle, which I believe is the Carnegie Rockefeller angle, which I'll tell you once we get into that topic.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Yeah, but there comes a time in your life when you are not the number one with the network, not number one within a region, not number one within, you are number one. There's only one Stephen A. No one's ahead of Stephen A. There's only one Stephen A, okay? Who has the depth that he has. If I was representing him, I get to make the asks.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
That doesn't mean that I have to say yes, but I get to make the asks. And by the way, Stephen A is not old. He's probably in the best shape he's been in 20 years. He looks incredible. Preparing to form the next 10-year run. So leverage is on him. Anyways, let's go to the next story here. There you go with Stephen A. Next one. Rob, do you have the clip of Newsom in California?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Whichever one you have, if we can go with the $27 billion, $24 billion being confronted to say, hey, what happened to that $24 billion when he's being asked? If you have that clip, so this is the governor of California, the great state of California, which he's destroyed.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
The last four years under his reign, he's being asked, what happened for this $24 billion that you asked us taxpayers to fix homelessness? What happened to that money? Here's the exchange. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Yeah. What does that mean, buddy? Tom, what are your thoughts on Newsom and how he's being held accountable with the money and still doesn't give any answers?
PBD Podcast

There was a tragic event in New York subway where Governor Hochul comes out. She's like, look, it's safe. Use the subway. You have nothing to worry about. It's great. Boom, right afterwards. What happens? a man who was asked to leave under Trump, who was let back in under Biden, lights a lady on fire and she dies. And he, I mean, it's just a tragic... We're not going to play the clip.

While you're talking, Vinny, I went on, Rob, I'm going to send this to you if you can pull this up. I went on California Homeless Auditor. It's auditor.california.gov. If you can pull up that link, Rob, that link and go to, because what I want to know is this money that you asked from us that we paid for, Have you been able to slow down homelessness in the state of California?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Because you were able to do it for Xi when he came to San Francisco and cleaned the streets. So if you could do that, could you have cleaned it up? Rob, if you can just pull up this chart while I'm speaking to show it to the audience. And if you go to that page and go to the middle of it, you'll see figure one.
PBD Podcast

that says California's population of people experiencing homelessness has increased since 2013. Now, when did Newsom become the governor of the state of California? What year? So Governor Newsom, when did you become? Oh, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower. Where it says figure one, keep going lower. You'll see it right now, it's coming up.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So 18, right? So prior to that, it went down. from 2013 to 2015, so whoever was the governor was able to decrease it 3,000 people during that two-year period. Then it goes up in 17, and in 18, he comes in, and it goes up from 131,000 to 181,000, even after getting the money. By the way, when did they get that money for, when did they get the money from Homeless California?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Homelessness, $24 billion. When was it given? When did they get that money, Tom? Do you remember what year it was? California has spent about $24 billion on homelessness since 2019. Audit finds California spent $24 billion on homelessness in five years and didn't consistently track outcomes. This is a CBS story that I pulled up from April 9th, Rob, if you can pull this up.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Some of you guys have probably seen it, but we have to definitely talk about what happened there, which we will. Newsom was confronted on the $24 billion missing. You got to see the reaction here. And those of you in California, they did do something good, which is great. There was this two girls that were shoplifting and they're like, wait a minute, we just, what's the big deal?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
So they got the money from taxpayers. So imagine like, it's kind of like this. You're starting a business. We raise money. You give us $24 billion. And every month, if you, the taxpayers, gave us $24 billion, what report do you want from us on a monthly basis?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
If you gave the $24 billion for homelessness, what question will you, the investors, and us say, what report do you want on a monthly basis? What's the most basic number you want to hear from us? Homelessness going on or homelessness going down? All you care about. And you mean to tell me in this article CBS says at the top that the article says what? It says...
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Even though they got the money, nobody was tracking the outcome, $24 billion. And what does it say? California spent $24 billion, but didn't consistently track whether the huge outlay of public money actually improved the situation.

Under his watch, despite this roughly billions of dollars spent on more than 30 homeless and housing programs during his tenure, 2018, which he came into, 2023, California... California does not have reliable data needed to fully understand why the problem didn't improve in many cities.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
According to the state auditor's report, this report concludes that the state must do more to assess the cost-effectiveness of its homelessness problem. The audit analyzed five programs that received a combined $13.7 billion in funding.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
It determined that only two of them are likely cost-effective, including one that converts hotels and motel rooms into housing and another that provides... This is ridiculous. By the way... 30% of all homeless in the state of California. California population is what? 30 what million? What's California's population?

They have a story of two girls that are shoplifting, thinking it's not a big deal. Rob, I don't know what page it's on, but I think you have the video. They're shoplifting. While they're shoplifting, they find out, wait a minute, why are we getting a felony? Why are we getting a felony? Oh, you're getting a felony because California changed laws. What do you mean they changed laws?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
This is not a felony. And they're in the car, in the cop car, talking to each other. Did they change the law? Is this now a felony? California changed the law, and people who were robbing others are now getting a felony, which is actually a good thing for the state of California. Stephen A. Smith, Stephen A.

PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Okay, so there's another clip I saw that a guy who gets caught shoplifting, while he's getting caught shoplifting, he comes back to court. He kept going through it because he's doing it. Then when he comes back to court, he realized the laws have changed, and it's now a felony. He's like, wait a minute. The previous six times, I didn't get a felony. Now I'm getting a felony?

And he's saying this while he's negotiating for his contract with Disney and ABC and Bob Iger. I have a point of view. I think I know what's going on. We'll talk about that and we'll play the clip. Anyways, I may be wrong, but I have an idea on what's going on there. We'll see. Don Lemon is going out there interviewing others about the media and all this stuff. He runs into somebody.

Let me show you this. Check this out. I just sent this to Rob. Rob, could you zoom in a little bit, please, so I can read this to them? All right, so California store prices, items go a little bit above. California stores are items at $9.51, so shoplifters will be arrested for doing so, can be charged with grand theft. So look what it says.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
If you look at it closely, warning, all items in the store... All items in the store are marked at 951, non-criminal discount applied at checkout for all paying customers only. The state of California will prosecute all shoplifters under the California Penal Code of 487 PC. Did you understand what just happened here? Yeah. They priced everything at $951.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Except when you come to the counter, getting ready to pay, they give a discount to non-criminal discount. That is so, think about what the hell is going on in California that this is how creative you have to get. So everybody goes to jail. Rob, if you can now play the other clip that was posted by Mario Nafal, not the one that we played with the music in it.

This one here will tell you a little bit more about the story of those two young girls who are making a mistake. Go ahead and play the clip, Rob. Did you get the clip? I think I texted it to you.

Oh, so it's tracking their entire journey. Rob, let it keep playing, Rob, unless if it stops. Okay, there you go. So then more cameras catching what they're doing. Rob, is there sound or no? Or is that music still playing? Wow, so now they're realizing it's a felony. Not it.

I freaking love that. I love that. By the way, leave it to business owners to come up with a creative way to protect their business from losses. Of course they're going to put every item in the stores worth $951. I'm supposed to pay a bunch of people's salaries. I can't stay in business if people keep stealing from me and the government doesn't protect me.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And you take the sides of the people that are stealing from me. That doesn't make any sense for business. Why would anybody want to start a business in the state of California if you're going to protect... Thieves over the business owner that creates jobs. How does that make any sense? Vinny, final thoughts, and then we'll go to the next one.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
You know what it is, Vinny, while you're saying this? Like, here's my question. To anybody that's watching that, the behavior you just witnessed right now with those young girls, to anybody that's a parent, if your younger daughter did that to you, what happens to your blood?
PBD Podcast

If your younger daughter takes your makeup out of your bag, you know the relationship between a mom and a daughter when a daughter always takes her makeup out? And what happens to mom?

PBD Podcast

Now, listen, if your son takes your makeup out of your bag, it's a different feeling. But if your daughter takes your makeup out of your bag, it's a different feeling. But how do you feel about it?

How do you think these guys feel when somebody's robbing and a guy can't even call the cops on them? They're going to call the cops on them. This is why Stephen A. Smith sounded the way she did. This is why Elon Musk was a former Democrat, left the party. This is why Joe Rogan was a former Democrat, left the party. This is why Tulsi Gabbard left the party. This is why Bobby Kennedy endorsed Trump.

This is why Joe Manchin, a story just came out, Rob. I don't know what page it's on. A story comes out with Joe Manchin saying the fact that I have it somewhere in here. Joe Manchin, right, says Warren's Democratic Party is so is toxic. as he steps down from the U.S. Senate. Wait, what? Joe Manchin says what? Joe Manchin says the Democratic Party is so toxic that he is stepping down. Why?
PBD Podcast

You got kids, you can tell them to do earmuffs while we're going through the stories or maybe even have them listen to it. I would have my older son, 12 and 11 year old, actually listen to it to see what's going on out there and kind of get their thoughts on it. There was a clip on 60 Minutes with a Mossad agent talking about what they did with pagers.
PBD Podcast

Manchin called for a centrist third party saying the centrist moderate vote decides who's going to be the president of the United States. And when they get here, they don't govern that way. If the senator had a voice and had a party, that would be something.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
He criticized both Democrats and Republicans as too extreme, stating Democrats want to ban guns while Republicans say let anybody have anything they want. That's Joe Manchin for you. So that's another person you lost. This guy was a guy that was a reasonable guy. This guy was a guy that had good ideas. Now you lost him as well. Bad policies. They're experiencing a massive exodus.

This lazy negotiation that was done in 1977, I believe, with Jimmy Carter. Lazy negotiation. And most people don't even know the history of Panama Canal.

Trump criticized the 77 treaties signed by President Carter that transferred the canal to Panama, calling it a deal where Carter foolishly gave it away for $1. and Panamanian President Jose Raul Molino countered the sovereignty and independence of our country are not negotiable, adding that the canal rates are fair and based on market conditions.

I'm actually curious to know what the thoughts are with these drone shows. We were about to do a drone show at our Vault Conference event at the Breakers, and then last minute we decided against it.

Trump's threats to retake Panama Canal strained ties with Panama, a U.S. ally. Molino declared, every square meter, we read that. Three, Panama's management of the canal, Trump called the canal's turnover a magnanimous gesture, implied undue Chinese influence. The canal has no control, direct or indirect, from China, Molino says. Four, for unwinding deals and treaties...

Teamster boss sits down with Tucker and tells the time where he's talking to Kamala about whether they're going to get their support or not.

and South Central America. If you can show that and we can look at Panama for people to realize the magnitude of this and why this has to do with China. It is so important. It is so important. I've been to Panama, and I've watched the canal because when you go there, I stayed at the Hard Rock, which is an hour away from the canal. If you zoom in, zoom in, go. Actually, go to Panama map.
PBD Podcast

Type in Panama map at the top. Just Panama country map. Yeah, zoom in. Zoom in right there if you can go there. You can have... Okay, so check this out. Panama canal... right there, zoom in, that's the canal that they built, okay?

If you don't, if you can zoom out on the map, if you can't go through there, okay, now if you can go to the Central America map, go to Central America map, watch this here. Go on the second one, yeah, that's, you know what, if you can go back a little bit, Robb, Go back a little bit. Actually, just go to the world map. Just go to the world map if you can have that.

Because it's so important to understand the power of this. The one on the left. Yeah. And click on it again. The map gets zoomed in even more. Yeah. So if you look at that, if you don't... Right there, Rob. You had it. Just go to that one, the pink one. Yeah. If you can't go... through the Panama Canal, you have to go. Like, imagine if you're coming from New York. Go to New York on the map, Rob.

Top right, pink. If you're coming from New York and there is no Panama Canal, you have to go all the way around the green to get to L.A. Look at that. All the way around the, and by the way, just to kind of give you guys some numbers on what that means. With the canal, it's only 4,970 miles from New York to LA. Without the canal, it's almost 13,000 miles, okay? With the canal, it's 12 to 14 days.

I think another 300 are going on a strike right now as we speak. It is a real thing. And then Azerbaijan had a plane that crashed that had 62 passengers and five crew members on.

PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Without the canal, it's 30 to 35 days, okay? And then when you look at dollar amount, with it, it's only $262,000 of fuel. Without it, it's $705,000 of fuel. Robbie can take the map out at this point. So then if you go from China to New York, China... to come over here because they're going the other way. So think, China has to go the other way.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
From California, come all the way down to go to New York. Exactly. China to New York with the canal, 12,000 miles. Without the canal, 19,000 miles. So without the canal, it takes 45 days sometimes. With the canal, it takes roughly 25 to 30 days. So you mean to tell me this idea of Panama Canal was started in the 1600s. A French company started building this in the 1880s.

They ran out of money, and they kind of paused it. Then in 1904, do you know who was president in 1904? One of the greatest presidents we've ever had. His name is Teddy Roosevelt, who was president. Come see him. Go see him. The Panama Canal. Do you know how many people died building the Panama Canal? 27,000 people. Because to build a Panama Canal, you literally had to build bombs.
PBD Podcast

They built, they blew things up and people were dying. They were dying from starvation. They were dying from sickness. They were dying from malaria. They were dying from yellow fever. They're dying. 27,609 people died building the Panama Canal. U.S. builds it. And how long? 10 years. And who becomes president in 1914? The face of the progressive party, which is who?
PBD Podcast

Woodrow Wilson becomes the president. It gets done because of Teddy Roosevelt in 10 years. Who benefits from it? The world. Then who goes, who is known as a very noble, nice, kind man, good husband, good father, but a shitty negotiator and a president? A guy named Jimmy Carter. Goes and gives it up? For what? We didn't have to give that up.

And by the way, do you know why I doubled down on Trump picking up the Panama Canal? You know why I doubled down on it? It is the only way we can prevent China from having a chokehold on U.S. long-term. It is the only way.

By the way, right now they need funding to finish up the construction because there's a lot of challenges right now with the Panama Canal that people are not even talking about, where ships are getting stuck, the speed, all these things that are going through. They need, I think, $5.2 billion of funding. Guess who can help you with that? The U.S. can. I hope and pray and encourage China
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
for them to double down on this. I think this is an old-school move of when Andrew Carnegie did not respect John D. Rockefeller. And John D. Rockefeller said, I'm sorry, what does Carnegie do? Carnegie steal? You know what we're going to do? Don't you need to move that steal? Yeah, don't worry. I have the railroads. Go ahead and move your steal. Go ahead. Move your steel.
PBD Podcast

You're going to need my railroads. I hope and pray that the U.S. left, right, and center politically get behind this idea because this benefits Americans long term. No matter if you're a Republican, Democrat, or an Independent, everybody should get behind the idea of Panama Canal that Trump is negotiating on. Vinny, I'll go to you next. Thoughts?

Exactly in the order you put it. Yeah, I thought so. Panama, Greenland, Canada. And by the way, I think the rest of the world, outside of BRICS, should support U.S. owning Panama Canal. Tell us.

Yeah, the Truman Show. Guess what? That show is about showing someone's personal life. U.S. is the Truman Show. Everybody sees our drama. So who would you rather have control Panama Canal?

PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
By the way, U.S., if China ends up taking control of Panama, you're screwed. Let me say this again to you. If China takes control of Panama Canal, you are screwed. Are you watching? Everybody in US is screwed if China takes control of Panama Canal. This is not even a joke because imagine, so now play the card of tariffs. Hey China, if you do this, We're going to put tariffs on you. Oh, go ahead.

If you do that, I'm shutting down any exports from Panama to US for the next 30 days. Go ahead and put the tariffs on me, US. You lose your tariff card.

So let's ask the question that nobody wants to ask. Why didn't anybody jump in? Every question becomes, if I jump in, I'm going to be criticized. My life's going to be over. I'm going to be Daniel Pennied.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Do I want to go through that? But the reality of it is, Based on how and who you recognize as a hero and a demon, the media sold Daniel Penny as a bad, evil person. So guess what? People are afraid to be Daniel Penny's.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
By the way, if there was a Daniel Penny there that we turned him into a hero for protecting someone's lives and other people's lives, somebody would have jumped in there right now because they want to be the next Daniel Penny. But no, because you don't want to turn the hero-making machine. Mainstream media... gets a part of the blame for that woman no longer being here with us.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Mainstream media gets a part of the blame for that woman, whoever she is, I don't know her background, but she's someone's daughter, she's someone's sister, possibly, and she's someone's spouse, possibly, she's someone's friend, she's someone's cousin, but because you crucify you know, in media terms, Daniel Penny, everybody says, ooh, I'm not going in there. I'm not going in.
PBD Podcast

What are you going to do to the guy? I'm not going to do nothing to the guy. I'm not going to jump in. I'm not going to jump in there. You are preventing the next heroes from rising up, and you're giving birth to more jokers from the movie Joker, Joaquin Phoenix, because that's your hero, New York. That's your hero.

who I always, when I'm having dinner with Stephen A, the way his mannerisms are, it's unbelievable how he is at the table, how he is carrying himself around other people, so respectful.

Husbands who abused adopted sons in House of Terrors slapped with massive prison sentence.

PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
If you go to New York Post with the story to read what else is in this story, these guys were selling these boys to others. These two guys were selling the boys for other men to abuse their adopted sons. Think about this story. So the question becomes, yeah, this is the one. If you can go a little bit lower, Rob. Keep going a little bit lower. Keep going a little bit lower, lower, lower.
PBD Podcast

34, 3600 years. Keep going. Those are the two of them, defendants. Keep going, Lord. The two brothers were 12 and 10 years old. The couple raised them under good skies. But the rich guy was a government employee, had a dark secret. Zachary worked in banking, and William was a government employee. The couple were regularly forcing the boys out.
PBD Podcast

to have sex with them and would show the abuse to make them feel like pornography. Keep going lower. Yeah, love, love. Look at the shirts, Rob. Evidence showed that they even begged about the abuse to twisted friends with one telling police Zachary once sent a Snapchat message reading, I'm going to F my son tonight, stand by, along with images of the boys being abused.

And they allegedly used social media to pimp the boys, at least to two men, and depraved local pedophile sex rings. The couple were arrested in 2022. Both of them pleaded guilty to child molestation. So you can stop this one here. So here's my question for you, Rob. If you can run a poll, okay, what should happen to these guys? 100 years or death penalty?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Because just yesterday, I watched a mother with two daughters talking about one of those 37 people that had a death penalty that Biden changed to life sentences, okay?

Imagine these two boys being adopted, 10 and 12 years old. What should happen to these two guys? There's a lot of questions here, by the way. Some will even speculate to say...
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Can a gay couple be able to adopt kids? Some people go as far as that. If you just go 80 years ago, 40 years ago, 60 years ago, when they did a survey by Gallup on what percentage were comfortable with this, it is a very, very small percentage compared to what it is today. But to me, what should happen to these guys? Worst case scenario, what kind of example should happen to these two men?

But watch what Stephen A is going through right now. Rob, if you got the clip, of Stephen A. talking about Kamala, please go ahead and play the clip and let's react to it. Go ahead, Rob.

Do you know what happens if you put them in jail and others find out what they did to these two boys? Do you know what they're going to do to these two men? Do you know what they're going to do to them? But the reality of it is, is that 100-year life sentence enough for the next gay couple to not want to be tempted to do something like this to boys that they adopt?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
What is the right decision to be made here, Tom? What do you think?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
60,000, 80,000, 100,000?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I have very strong opinions about this, very. And I think there needs to be a hardcore pain towards someone that does something like this for you to not want to replicate it. It has to be extremely painful in this example because the people that also proved for them to get the kids, what kind of background check did you do on them?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Because let's just say if I'm a bank and you give somebody a $2 million loan for a house, How do we do the audit on them? How do we do the underwriting? What signs did you look for? Outside of the credit score, what else did we see? Income to debt ratio, what else did you look through? How much cash savings did they have? Did they get fired recently? Did we call reference checks?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
What do we do to give these guys $2 million for a loan that after three months they can't make a mortgage payment? So what is the underwriting process for a gay couple to be able to adopt a son? What did they do? I want to know the depth of that process so much before we move forward and say yes to it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
And a certain level of accountability where boys are going to be interviewed every month to say, how's the experience? What's going on? And for about a good three-year period, until you get this, the boys need to come and be reported on how they're doing and checking them out to make sure they're good, they're healthy, until afterwards they're like, okay, cool. It's been three years.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
At this point, it typically takes us six months to find out that you're good. At this point of the process, in the insurance space, they call it the incontestability clause for the first two years. I can't look at everything. I want to have an incontestability clause. If I'm giving you two innocent boys for you to raise – I want to check you're doing your part.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Like, you know, in the U.S., when somebody that's here illegally marries somebody that's a U.S. citizen and they check to see if they really love each other to make sure they give the citizenship to the husband, you know, that whole process? Yeah. If we're doing that, what's more important to follow up on? Boys being, it's like a no-brainer to me for us to follow up on this.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Because I'm sure some do a great job at it. But that would be it. Guys, I got to go. I got to go to the next story. We can't do this. You guys keep saying you want to say stuff. Okay. So next story here to go on is... We'll do one last one here before we wrap up. Rob, can you pull up the tweet and the story of Bobby Kennedy about what he wants to do with Big Pharma?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
This is another one that's a top 10 on my list, guys. So New York Times, story comes out. RF Kennedy Jr. wants to ban drug ads on TV. It wouldn't be easy. Let me get this straight. This guy wants to ban drugs. Big Pharma from advertising on TV? By the way, if this gets approved, It's the kiss of death for MSNBC, for NBC, for ABC, for any of those guys.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Rob, if you go to the top of it, Rob, on that tweet, it shows how much money these guys spent advertising. If you remove my, there you go. In 2023, Big Pharma spent $15.58 billion on advertising. So think about how many people's salary is being funneled through Big Pharma to CNN to somebody, funneled through Big Pharma to MSNBC to somebody.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Imagine how many people's salary is being purely funneled, funneled from Big Pharma to them, and a middleman is these media companies. What would happen if that $16 billion, give or take, is gone? Who loses money on that? What happens to a lot of these guys' salary? Does that automatically make a company like CNN go from being worth a billion and a half to being worth a half a billion dollars?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
What happens all of a sudden if you don't have big formal financing anymore? Where do you get your money from? Where does it literally come from? If Bobby does something like this and this gets passed down, by the way, this is the kind of stuff that if you're pushing this, by the way, this was also my top five list. I talked about this with Vivek when I sat down with him a year and a half ago.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
I talked about it with this guy for the last two years. This was so important. If this goes through, Bobby Kennedy needs full-time security around him. If this goes through, you guys ever seen the movie Gladiator? where Russell Crowe is about to eat the soup and the other guy eats the soup, the big guy, to make sure they're not going after him.
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Somebody needs to eat everything that Bobby eats before Bobby eats it. Because Bobby officially has some of the biggest gangsters, lobbyists, that are going to be targeting him if he decides to go this direction. Tom, your thoughts. How likely is it that something like this can be passed under a Trump presidency and under a Bobby Kennedy running the HHS?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Well, let me tell you this. Tom, you've already gone, haven't you? You guys want to go twice, guys? If we do this, we'll be gone for four hours. Hey, listen, when it comes to that Djibouti, I get it. Go ahead. Did you want to say something? Go ahead, Tom.

You killed my wife! Okay, so Tom, did Tommy Lee Jones and the fugitive people pay you sponsorship money? We don't know about it because I don't understand. Listen, while we're talking about getting heavier, a lot of people ate very well last night, okay? However, one person was working very hard the last 48 hours, guys.

First of all, I love your hat. I love what you got on. But here's a technical question that my kids want to know, my three-year-old and my eight-year-old want to know. They're going to watch this afterwards. How are you able to get to every single person around the world in that limited time while we're asleep? How do you do that? I mean, how intense is that eight-hour window that you have?
PBD Podcast

So the question with the magics is when you're out there in North Pole and all these people make movies making fun of you guys, I don't like it. But is there any Christmas movie they made that they depicted you in the most accurate possible way where you guys feel comfortable watching it together with all the elves and everybody else that's working out there? What movie do you guys like watching?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525
Is it Elf? Is it Christmas Story? Is it Home Alone 1? Is it two, what movie do you like watching the most that you trust?
PBD Podcast
Trump Wants The Panama Canal & Greenland, NYC Subway Fire, Newsom Confronted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 525

Kim is a little bit... She gets a little bit... When we get the cookie stuff that we got yesterday, she gets upset if we share it like she doesn't like it. But she was kind enough to share it with the rest of us. And it was a very kind gesture from her. I'm sure she's going to see this here. But anyways, we love you. We appreciate you.

CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And then President Trump is negotiating on behalf of the government to... Purchase half of TikTok and becoming partners potentially with Ellison and Musk. Saying the fact that TikTok without a license from us is zero. but with a license, potentially a trillion dollars.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So you're saying he's got credibility. Beyond credibility. So let's go through it here. Vinny, did you ever take a flu shot? Independently post-military. Independently? Post-military? No. Have you ever taken any shots post-military? No. None? No. Okay. Tom, have you ever taken a flu shot?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
I'm just getting to a point here. Okay. Only a couple times early in my career.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Okay, but as an adult, did you ever take a flu shot?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Okay, so did you ever take any shots as an adult? Did you ever take any shots where you're like, I'm going to go take this shot, I'm going to take this shot independently?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Okay, so guess what's great about this year? If you think about, there's a few frustrating moments when I'm watching this. Number one, my opinion. is I'm okay with this because I have a choice to not take it. Rob made a very good point yesterday while we were talking. I think it was prep, Rob, if we're not going through it. And it was like, look, if I have the option, I'm with them.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
You're right, if I have the choice. Because the reason we had a challenge with COVID vaccine was what? It was forced upon you to take. Get the F off my back. My number one reason why I never took the vaccine was because it was forced, it was quick, and we didn't have any research on it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Now, for something like this, and you can sit here and be like, well, you know, what about this and what about that and what about this? Okay, what have we already read about chemotherapy and what chemotherapy does and if it's good, if it's bad, and how much it even makes it worse?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Why should we not trust anything new that they're giving us? Why are some people, I don't trust anything new you want to introduce to me. Why? Here's why. Andrew Schultz's clip, Rob, if you have it, I mean, you don't have to play the whole thing, but he makes such a great point when he says, let me get this straight. Fauci's getting a pardon.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
If he can play this clip, Rob, we don't have to watch Schultz and go for it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So maybe the way we got to do it is X, Y, Z. So the way he was negotiating was very interesting, but I have some thoughts on that as well. Aside from that, the gentleman that said he's going to put a half a trillion dollars of investment and he raised it, Musk came out and said, I don't think they have that kind of money. There's a report that came out that says,
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
By the way, you can pause it. FYI, I 100% but listen, never took the vaccine. Not one. I'm not taking one. Not the second. Some took the one. Some took all. Some were afraid afterwards. Some took the what do you call it? The Boosters. First booster, the second, the third, the fourth. All I'm saying to you is I didn't take any of it, right? But let's talk about the people that did take them.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Do you know how upset people are right now that they trusted the government and they took it? And you want to tell me now that guy that said we have to trust the science, not all these other things. And if he is guilty, nothing happens to it. So to the community that doesn't want to hear anything from Larry Ellison, I fully understand and support them, fully.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
This is what I would do if I was President Trump. My number one job is the following. So when you're 80, how old is Fauci, Rob? Is he 81, 82? He's something like that, right? He's in his early 80s, yes. Okay, so... When you're 84 years old, okay, what matters at 84 years old?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
I mean, if you have enough money coming in for you to pay your bills and live a decent life and go see your doctor and you have the medicine and you have a nice place and you see your grandkids, how much more money do you need at 84 years old? He's fine, right? Okay. If you've given 50 years of your life to a job, what matters at 84 years old?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
That your kids want to see you, that your grandkids want to see you, and if you've busted your ass in an industry, what's more painful? Going to court, being sued, going to jail, or everybody finding out after heavy-duty research that you lied, that you were a POS, that you abused, that you used your powers to make money for certain people, what happens if that is finally exposed?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
No, he never goes to jail. No, you follow the pardon. But that doesn't mean you can't investigate and do a Twitter files type of thing that they did years ago and find that and call it the COVID files.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Let's find out the NIH files. Let's do the CDC files. He just cut the funding, the $350 million a year to World Health Organization. Guess what? We're going the right direction. I think if the president... is able to get, you know, RFK or somebody to finally expose a lot of people's questions. What the hell happened with this? And those questions are answered.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
According to New York Post, Fox News aired all 500 of the most watched cable news shows since November 5th election. Let me say this one more time. Top 500 out of 500 shows that got the most views with the most viewership since November 5th, 500 out of 500 is Fox. Not CNN, not MSNBC, not anybody else. That's not a, you know, that's a shellacking.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Then people will be receptive to the idea of an optional thing coming up with, what do you call it, with the vaccine. Now, I want to play this clip, Rob. If you can play this clip with Larry Ellison. about surveillance, you have to know that these minds, it's going to a different direction that you just have to stay skeptical about. Here's this clip. Go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So you see where this is going as well, right? By the way, somebody may watch. I can make the argument for both sides. You can as well, by the way. Do you understand what I'm saying? Make the argument why this is good. Surveillance. Make the argument why you want cameras everywhere where all citizens are being watched. Cars are watching everything you're doing.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
The cars you buy are watching everything that you're saying. Make the argument for it. Make the argument like cops are being watched. Make the argument for every single behavior you're doing that's being watched.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Now make the argument against it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So this leads me to the following, which is the perfect transition. Can you pull up the TikTok President Trump negotiating, which, by the way, every sales leader should play this clip and fund their salespeople. Because there's so many lessons to be learned on how he's negotiating. Not this one, Rob. He's standing up top.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
He's standing and he's talking about, you know, when it comes down to TikTok, you know, the government owns 50%. Are you open? Do you know which clip I'm talking about? No, let me look. Yeah, there's a clip of him standing up and they're asking him a question about this with TikTok. And he proposes. That the U.S. government gets 50% and he gets the, you know, Ellison and I think this is it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Let me see if this is the one. This is it, Rob. Audio, guys.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
That's when you lose so bad that's just embarrassing. But we'll talk about that. Trump hiring blitz sets first day hiring record with 1300. Musk not happy with Altman, you know, when he claimed that he was doing it as a nonprofit and now he wants $10 billion. There's some thoughts on that. Trump obliterates DEI with scathing order placing thousands on leave.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
That was Larry Ellison right there. You see this conversation that happens, right? And on the surface, what does it sound like? It sounds, yeah, it's the right negotiation. Sounds great. You know, it sounds fantastic. You know, the government owns half of it, and Ellison and Musk own the other half.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Yes. So government becomes a partner with you. So we own half, you own half. So what he's trying to say is, let's just say they buy it for $50 billion. Okay? I'm just making up a number. And then they take it to a trillion dollars. Okay? So that's what? $950 billion. The government gets the $475 billion, and whoever owns it gets the other $475 billion.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
that buys it, that he gives the permit to. It's almost like the year where the U.S. government gave... different media companies a license to... You remember this one here, where it was Fox, everybody was fighting for it, CNN, all these guys were like, I want a broadcasting license. But there is a concern. Tom, if you can give the history of that, and I'll give you what my concern is. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Billions of dollars. So what this is sounding like... is I'll give you a permit to be a social media company in the States. I'm giving you a license. But let me tell you, there's a concern for me with this. So who would you rather monitor... Everything you're messaging, DMing, talking, posting, linking on your phone, would you rather have China monitor your stuff or the U.S. government?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Of course, the U.S. government for me instead of China. I don't want no foreign person watching the stuff that we're doing here. But do you know how close... It is. The difference between China, the U.S. government, or private, do you know how close those three are for me? It's here, China, here, U.S. government, here, private. Okay? It's not the distance between the U.S.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And, you know, we got a few other things here while Vinny is coughing. Sam Altman says Trump's Stargate will allow AGI to be built in the U.S. and create hundreds of thousands of jobs. Mass migrant deportation coming to a city near you, starting with New York City, soon as Trump's border crackdown gets underway. There was a video from Boston we were talking about with Vinny earlier.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
government and private is this far. Why would you say that? I'll explain to you why. Because... Okay, so if under Trump administration, they buy TikTok 50%, this isn't England. He's not going to be president for 40 years. He's only president four years. So what if in four years, new person that becomes president is a Barack Obama? What if in four years somebody that becomes president is an AOC?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
What if in four years somebody that becomes president is a Newsom? What if in four years somebody that becomes president is whoever? And he replaces the side of the TikTok that is ran by somebody in the U.S. government to want to investigate what's going on. What are you going to say to him? Are you going to say no? No, I'm very uncomfortable with a deal like that.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
I would much rather this be a deal... In free market, in free enterprise, let them go at it, then having a U.S. government being involved. And again, remember, remember how on Tuesday I said, when you say U.S. government, what does that mean? I don't trust the U.S. government. I said, no, it's not that you don't trust the U.S. government.

We're not the enemy of the people. We are the defenders of the people. Walter Cronkite once said freedom of the press is not just important to democracy. It is democracy for Acosta to make such claims after a four-year period. where the press failed on many levels, particularly in recognizing the president's dysfunction, turns their statement into more of a comedy routine.

CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And this is media-eyed writing. This is not a conservative article, just so you know. Conservative truth-seeking is vital, not just for the GOP, but for the health of the country. However, too many in the conservative media have abandoned this in favor of acting as an arm of the President Trump, including pardoning Capitol rioters, delaying enforcement. They're a very...

It's programs including the five Jesse Waters, Henry, Laura Ingraham, secure the top spots, and the next non-Fox show was CNN's Election Day America ranking 507. Okay.

You know everything. You know everything, Jimmy. So, by the way, do you believe her? Look, let me just say this part as you go through it. If they get a divorce and it doesn't work out, it's their business. You know, when you're a public figure, other people can react to it and say whatever they want to say.

PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So we've had 45 presidents. Okay. One out of 45, none of them have gotten a divorce yet. Let's see eventually. We've only had 45 of these guys. It's not like we've had a lot of them. Could it happen? It could happen. And the part that makes me a little bit speculative here, skeptical here, is which of the two...
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
ceremonies to not show up to do you think gave me more concern carter or not showing up to trump's inauguration carter carter carter yeah it's a national thing and he was a president died yeah exactly there's some funerals you have to go to a democratic president right so you don't go to that and you don't even comment first of all if i'm the carter family I feel disrespected.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Now, maybe she would have called him and said, look, I don't want to comment on this, but I'm calling you out of respect just to tell you I'm not going to be there for my own reasons.

CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
But if you don't go and you don't comment, you can say, like when Melania said, I'm not going to the White House to sit next to Jill and Biden or whatever. No problem. She was never good to me. No problem. I totally get it. By the way, even Mike Pence's wife not getting up, but she showed up. What is she saying? I'm here because my husband is here. I can't stand the Trumps. Chris Watt. Cool.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
We got it. So that's the part where her not showing up is I don't want to be around Brock because if that story is true with him and Jennifer Aniston, of course, it's very painful for Michelle because Michelle doesn't look that good in the last picture that they posted. To be honest with you, if you go look at that picture that was posted, you know what's the most common thing people said about it?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Why would you ever post this picture? Yes. No, no. People were, and I'm actually not being funny. They were asking Barack, why would you ever post this picture? What part of Michelle's picture? Barack looks great. That is not a... Can you close up on her, Rob? Actually, don't. But can you zoom out a little bit? Not for bad reasons. It's just she doesn't look good in that picture.

Sometimes you don't look good. So guess what you do when sometimes you don't look good? You ask him, you say, hey, babe, you okay if I post this picture? No, use this one. Use that one. Use this one. So I don't even know why he posted the picture. You know, he has his own reasons for posting a picture. So a lot of people said, why are you even doing this?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
It's not cool for you to post a picture like this. So who knows what's going on there. But if it does happen... It's their business. They have kids. They'll figure it out and they'll move on. And this won't be the first or the last president that will go through this because marriage is very hard. And God willing, they make it work. But if they don't, it's their problem.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
They have to deal with it with their kids. And we'll react to it and we'll give our thoughts on it. But I hope they make it work because marriage is a very difficult thing to do. And Barack... You've got to say this in a very strange way, but Brock's aged well. He's still a good-looking guy. He still takes care of himself. He goes and works out and all this other stuff.

He says, honey, he only did it once because that's the only chance he had in his life. He says, you got to give Tiger credit because the 18 times he did, he had 82,000 chances. So he deserves a Nobel Prize. He actually is below average.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
You understand what he's saying? It's like to say your brother is the one you should hate, not Tiger, right? So he's under par. He's under par. But it was funny listening to it. All I'm saying in this situation here is, You know, you got to do your best, and we wish these guys the best. I don't agree with him at all politically.

I believe November 5th was the worst day of his life, and I understand he has lost more credibility than ever, but personal life is their business. Hopefully they'll figure it out.

PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
All right, so let's go to the next story here with... Let me see which one I want to go to here. Okay, AOC torn to shreds for juice-plaining to anti-defamation league in dispute over Musk's inauguration salute. So is this... Let me see this one here. Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
People can officially stop listening to you as... any sort of a reputable source of information. Now you work for them. Thank you for making that crystal clear. And what did ADL say, by the way? This is a delicate moment. Can you click on their tweet, Rob?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Go do that while I'm reading the story. So let me go to what the story is actually about. So AOC widespread criticism after accusing ADL defending high Hitler gesture. She wrote on it just because you got it. I wrote that. Thank you for making it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Because the ADL had defended must state and it seems that Musk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, urging people on both sides to avoid jumping to conclusions. Social media users condemned the classic Cortez. With one saying, we now have AOC Jewsplaining to ADL. In other words, AOC trying to Jewsplain to ADL why they are anti-Semitic.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538

Yes.

Larry Ellison comes out and is giving a talk right in front of the president about vaccines that are there to possibly cure cancer. And I'll let him explain to you. You have to realize Larry Ellison is one of the most low-key, BMF, brilliant mentors to a lot of people that are front, you know, face forward. You see them all the time. This is the guy that he is on a lot of people's ears.

Parts of it are getting... Jamal Bowman got out due to AIPAC spending, I think, $25 million. It was a big number that AIPAC spent to get rid of. So there could be a part of her... That is not happy. How much did they spend? $14.5 million. $14.5 million to beat Jamal Bone, just so you guys know that. So she may be remembering this and is trying to find a way to get back to what they did to her guy.

But go ahead, Tom.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And so when he speaks, the right people listen. But I'm curious to know your thoughts on this. Tom, Vinny Adam will come to you. Go ahead and play this clip, Rob.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
What Tom is saying to you is that doesn't work anymore. It's not working. That's the point Tom is making, if I'm understanding you correctly. Exactly. And so for me, she is at a point right now, and I'm just being, if I was her advisor, and I'm not, she's missing out on a very big opportunity by working backwards and She's just going to six years ago. Alexandria, it didn't work.

What are you doing? the sequencing of your next 5, 10, 15 moves, you're not making the right next 5, 10, 15 moves. And I think she would benefit from reading the book Power vs. Force. I just don't think she's making the right move. I'm going to go to the next one. I'm going to go to the next move. I'm going to go to the next topic here. You're saying respectfully disagree.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Give your thoughts and I'll go to the next one.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So that's not working because there's been rumors of her wanting to run for office. And it won't work. That won't work. Yeah, exactly. Okay. So while you're talking about that, there's a couple of things that I want to go through. Trump bans. Let me just go through a series of these fairly quickly. He bans pride and BLM flags at U.S. buildings. Boom. That's number one.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Number two, he takes the DEI concept, obliterates the DEI with scathing order, placing thousands to leave without any hesitation, okay? And there's a clip on this, Rob, if you got it, on the DEI.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
It's okay. So Trump issues a sweeping executive order dismantling diversity equity programs and federal programs, mandating all DEI employees to place on paid leave By 5 p.m. Wednesday, in ordering the closure of DEI office, the administration described DEI programs as dangerous, demeaning, and immoral race and sex-based preferences and undermine our national unity.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Trump's order stated hardworking Americans should not be stigmatized, demeaned, or shut out of opportunities because of their race or sex. Executive order reversed a DEI-focused directive enacted by Joe Biden on his first day in office, which Trump criticized for embedding Radical practices with every agency.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
The order also required agencies to report efforts to disguise the initiatives with coded or impressive and precise language and warned employees failing to report such actions to of adverse consequence. Trump argued these programs created a coercive identity based spoils the system. It was one after another, after another. He announced purge of over a thousand Biden appointees. You're fired.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
then hiring blitz on day one, hiring record-breaking 1,300 staff on day one. This is all Trump doing it. He's only been in office for, by the way, Trump's already negotiated and done more in his first 24, 48 hours than Biden did in four years. Think about it. He's already negotiated on behalf of his voters more in the first 48, 72 hours than Biden did in the first four years of being in office.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
When you see this stuff right now, Tom, how do you process all this information with what he's doing with DEI, firing, hiring? How do you process it? Well...
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And by the way, while this is going on, Rob, can you pull up the clip? Because Common Sense is making a comeback worldwide. And in Canada, Pierre... who was running against Justin. He is being interviewed. No, not this one, Rob. Pierre. Pierre is being asked how many genders there are. That's so good.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And the way he answers the question, if you just go on Twitter and type in Pierre Genders, it'll come up. There you go. And any one of these, just play this clip. This is so interesting how he answers it. And the guy on the other side, he has no clue what to say. He's confused. Watch this, folks.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Yeah, this is a story of Daily Mail. Okay. Talking about the fact that, where's the BLM? There it is. So President Trump issued a State Department order banning Pride and Black Lives Matter flags that are being displayed at U.S. facilities worldwide, stating starting immediately only the U.S. flag is authorized to be flown over. U.S. facilities, both domestic and abroad.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
The flag of the United States of America, United States of Americans under the universal principles of justice, liberty, and democracy. The directive issued by new Secretary of State Marco Rubio allows exceptions for prisoners of war. Missing in action flag and wrongful detainees flag. Flag like pride and BLM banners have been points of contention.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
For Republicans with prior attempts, such as 2021 Old Glory Old Act, failing to pass Biden administration previously agreed to similar restrictions and spending bill compromise, but vowed to repeal it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Trump revoked security detail for Pompeo and others despite threats from Iran. The official had been part of an aggressive... posture against Iran during President Trump's first term.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
I agree. Let's go to the next one. Jamie Dimon defends Trump's tariff. National security trumps a little bit more than inflation. If you have the clip, Rob, go for it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
they threaten and no they put up their own tariffs their own rules their own rules their own regulations they make a lot of unilateral actions that they think are in their own best interest so it's not bad for our government to do that that tool may be a useful tool properly you can stop this is the same lady that when trump said wait a minute you know what's in that laptop oh stop it you can't say that you see you can't say that here this is 60 minutes sir yeah this is 60 minutes sir you can't say that you can't say do you remember that clip she's
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Rob, if you can find that clip with what she said until and I love the fact that he said until you apologize, I'm not coming back to 60 Minutes. I love the fact that has taken place. However, Jamie Dimon just gave a very basic breakdown of how tariffs work to protect your country. And it made sense because it's all about leverage. Good for you, Jamie Dimon.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And Jamie Dimon probably also just sold 5,000 copies of his book, Art of the Deal, when he said you should read Art of the Deal. Tom, your thoughts on what he says here?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Mom, by the way, this is her with Trump many, many years ago. Go for it, Rob.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
You can pause it right there. So this is the part where you see her face. You know what kind of a look she has? when she's interviewing Jamie Dimon, she has the look of she just got her tail handed to her and she doesn't know how to handle it because all the credibility they had is gone.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Is gone.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And now she's sitting there and Jamie's defending Trump. Yeah. And she's like, wait a minute, what are you saying about all this stuff? Adam, 30 second thoughts and I'm going to the next story.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
If you can pull up that clip by Justin Trudeau, on what he's saying because Trump's come out and said he's considering putting a 10% tariff on China beginning February 1st. And, you know, Justin, who's a terrible negotiator, is sitting there saying, oh my God, what am I going to do about this? So he tries to react in response to kind of act tough. It just doesn't work for him.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So watch Justin here trying to defend his nation. Go ahead.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
You're a lame duck. This goes back to that story. This goes back to that story when Trump is sitting with him at Mar-a-Lago saying, hey, I think Ben Shapiro told this story. Hey, if we were to, what's the worst thing that can happen in Canada? And he says, the worst thing you can do is give us tariffs. He says, hey, let me just give you a tip.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Don't ever tell somebody that's negotiating with you what's the worst thing he can do to you. And that's exactly what he did to you. By the way, if Trump ever writes the book Art of the Deal 2.0, post his last term, that book will sell 100 million copies. Easy.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Because if he breaks down all the deals he did while he's a president, who wouldn't want to buy that book to see how all these deals happen? Look at this picture right here. You know what Luke Trump's got?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Gotcha. Gotcha. Gotcha. So again, all these guys that are coming out, this is just not the way to negotiate with Trump. You could have done it in a complete different way. This is the wrong way of doing it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Yeah, well, I mean, obviously we'll see what will take place here. With this guy, Mayor Eric Adams accuses Democrats of abandoning him. Working class people in preview of Biden interview with Tucker Carlson. And by the way, Rob, if you have this clip to show, is this the clip? Go ahead and play this clip. Go ahead and play this clip.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
You can pause it right there and watch this. While this is taking place, They're talking about New York. Do you have the clip of what they're doing right now in New York, Rob? I can find one. Do you have the clip of the fact that they're already busting some folks out? And even a clip that Vinny just sent you. Yeah, this is the one here. Watch this. And where is this, by the way, Rob?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Is this in New York? I just want to make sure we know where this is. Boston. Okay, we'll play this and then we'll go to the New York one. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Biden could have done this for four years and never did it.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Not a lot of people are supportive of it. Vinny, how do you feel about this?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And let me read this. Mass migrant deportations coming to New York City. As soon as Trump border crackdown gets underway. Rob, do you have that clip? Because it says yellow on here. So Representative Nicole, representing Staten Island and Brooklyn, warned that New York City is key target in President Trump's mass deportation crackdown following Chicago. Is this the clip, Rob? Yes.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Go ahead and play this clip. She's like telling people, be careful. They're coming to get you. If you're a rapist and you were protected by Sanctuary City, Trump's people are going to come and put you in jail and send you back home. Go ahead, Rob, if this is the clip that I think it is.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
I thought this was the other clip because there was one clip on, it was either MSNBC or CNN, if you can find it, where she's like saying it, look what they're doing. They're at the point, you know, kind of like getting emotional, sentimental of what they're doing there. Tom, think about families who have kids that go to school, who have daughters who work late night. Think about families.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
How excited are they that this is happening right now, Tom?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Rob, is this the clip about the debate?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Great, play it. This is the one I think.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
And by the way, just so you know, he gave this speech after he was president, not before. Weird. So this is, I think, March of 09. If you can look at it, Rob, it was March of 09 when he gave this speech. So meaning, the point is, he's already won, so he's not trying to give a speech to win votes. This was March 18th, 2009, at a town hall.

March 18th, 2009.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Yeah. I mean, it's obviously it's very timely to see what he's saying back then and what it is today. Barack Obama, somebody should retweet that and say this conservative. previous president, Republican Barack Obama, he doesn't sound like a Democrat.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
That's right. It's like, where is he now? Look, let's do one last story and we'll wrap up, folks. This story here, inside $300 million, members-only luxury doomsday, bunker with AI-powered medical suites and indoor pools. where the 1% can seek shelter from apocalypse. Can you please show the pictures, Rob? Okay, this is a $300 million facility. Look at the spa.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So there's a nuclear war going on outside, World War III. You're there getting a massage, and maybe you feel a little bit of a shake. You're like, was that the masseuse or was that the nuclear bomb? Go a little bit lower, Rob. You're just going and getting your treatment. You're doing your physical, your check. You're good. Keep going lower.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
You know, you're here just kind of, you know, Dr. Fauci's there with you. What is this one here? There's no stranger to a lavish shelter space having previously created this. Okay, so you're just laying down, maybe getting a massage or you're hearing some good music. Keep going, Lord. What is that? That's another health facility. MRI you're doing, which is always a great experience.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Keep going lower. Keep going lower. Look at this. The spa, you're chilling. Ice age. Keep going lower. $300 million, right, for this? You know, you're sitting there having a drink, maybe watching a movie. End of days. I don't know, World War Z or End of Days. It's got to be an old movie. Leave the world behind. Leave the world behind. Keep going lower. Keep going lower.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
So while this is going on, look at that facility. That's the facility that they're building. $300 million facility. Keep going lower. So now the membership for something like this, keep going lower, Rob. It is a whopping $20 million to be a member. And by the way, today's sponsor of the podcast is this guy. Imagine, like, hi, what is this? That was a joke, by the way.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Go all the way to the top to read what the membership is. It says $20 million right there. Due to open in summer of 2026, which means maybe something's going on in the winter of 2026. Just in time for the midterm wars. The High and Underground Fortress will provide a five-star survivalist experience to those lucky few who are willing to fork out
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
$20 million for a single membership of which there are 625 available. The bunker, which has been named Aerie, will be part of a network of similar sanctuaries that cater to the 1%, providing them with a unique opportunity to safeguard their futures no matter what disaster lies ahead. So let's do the math. What's 625? What's 625 times $20 million? So let's see this. 625 times $20 million.
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
It is $12.5 billion for the membership. So they spent $300 million. The membership will get you $12.5 billion. So that's a 40x return on the investment. It's actually a brilliant idea, Tom. Your thoughts? Any interest in something like this, Tom, for you?
PBD Podcast

Mark Carney? This is such a bad look. Taking photos of him? Yeah, it's such a bad look on him. On Larry Fink or Jack Fink? Horrible. Horrible. What are you doing taking a picture of the guy? It's a form of a threat. That is a form of a threat. What are you trying to say? You're going to destroy my life? What are you doing taking a picture of me? It's free press. You're American.

PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
All right. We got a few things going on, folks. There's this vaccine that Larry Ellison is talking about that could cure cancer. We got to talk. A lot of people are freaking out over it. There's people that are reacting still to Fauci getting pardoned. Schultz gave a breakdown of what am I going to do with this thing that's in my body now? Am I not going to find out if this was good or bad?
PBD Podcast
CNN's Jim Acosta Gets DESTROYED, Ellison's Cancer Vaccine, Obamas Divorcing? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 538
Well, this sounds like Elizabeth Holmes 2.0. It can pause that, Rob. Okay, Adam, how do you feel about it? Because I've got some thoughts here. So two things.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But at the same time, when I think about him and his swagger, his walk, he talks to all these shows and the way he does it, If the Rat Pack was alive, he would be one of them. He'd be part of that crew because he's that guy. He's likable. He's a stud of a guy, respected by everybody. And I think in the next couple years, he's going to get a massive back from somebody. I don't know who it is.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You think the agency has to go bye-bye?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Hang on, hang on. So from an agency from 60, let's just say 62 years ago, they did it. The whole agency needs to go done?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But the example in this situation would be if out of 200 employees, 22 people had a plot to do something that the other 178 didn't know. The whole company needs to go? I don't think so.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay, so let me ask you a question. Let's just say these guys did it. Why did they do it? Was it for cause? Was it for crusade? Was it for correcting an injustice? Or was it because they got paid? What do you think would be the main reason?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So let's just say he is an anti-war guy because we know he was.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So anti-war hurts who? The military industrial complex and rich people. So do you think the CIA agent working for the CIA cares deeply whether it's anti-war or not or for war? Do you think they care?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Do you think the agent is that much of a believer that they care to say this is why we took him out because he's anti-war? Or do you think the motivation was somebody paid an agent to take him out? You know what I'm asking?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I'm just putting it out there. Wow. I think he's going to get some big money in the next couple years. The day that happens, I'm calling him for a loan that I'm probably going to talk to his handler. But with that being said, the great Andrew Schultz is in the house.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Probably paying the agent. Okay. So then guess what? If that's the case. It's not an indictment on the entire.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I mean, look, I just sold a company two and a half years ago. You know how many times when you go through this, you see bribery happening with different things? Hey, we'll do this for you to turn against this, and we'll do that to turn against. Then you watch everybody. You're like, all right, well, I thought that guy was 100%. Okay, that's what's going on. I thought this guy was.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
These types of things happen in so many situations. That's not an indictment on everybody in the company. However, let me ask you another question. Say it comes out that actually Israel was involved. What does it change for you? If Israel was involved? Let's just say Israel was involved. And what does that change for you? If they were involved? Immediate accountability. Immediate accountability.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Absolutely. Okay. And what does that mean?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
62 years ago, if they were 30 years old then, they're probably 92 years old today. So there's a 95% chance none of them are alive. If they were over 30. I'm just kind of doing math.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
We have the bagels. He says Tel Aviv nightlife is amazing.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I fully – so that's the part where – You know, the average non-journalist, you know, today there's two different types of journalists, right? There's the citizen journalist and there's the journalist. And the question becomes, who do you trust? The guy that's a journalist went to brainwashing university that you have to believe in one way or another and see the other side as the enemy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So it's not really journalism. It's journalism against the enemy. And then the citizen journalist is not a professional journalist. They're just kind of sitting there searching, Googling, grokking, chat GBT and whatever they're doing. And like, I came up with this. So you're like, whoa, that was kind of interesting. I didn't know about that. Good find. Tell me more.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
No, no, he actually does respond. I'm just giving him a hard time.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And you're kind of seeing some of these guys that are coming up, the carols of the world. You're looking, wow, I never know about that. Rob, what is this, by the way, that you got? Small click within the CIA was responsible.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Do you have anything else outside of that to go through? What's this one here, Rob?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Adam's in a different business, though. We're having kids. Adam is dating kids.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, listen, I've read a little too much on Lyndon Johnson. I've never been a fan. Lyndon Johnson, to me, is one of those guys that they make it to the top by taking everybody else down. Not they make it to the top to outdoing everybody else that's going to the top. This guy was envious of Kennedy. Kennedy was getting all the love, the accolades, the attention.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And, you know, you got to be careful with these guys Ambitious, lazy people who are envious and they secretly stand behind you and they watch you and they act like they're a friend when they're looking at you behind closers. They cannot wait to see you fall. And that's Lyndon Johnson, man. So I'm not surprised that this was his way of becoming a president. I'm not surprised.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He was way more ambitious. John F. Kennedy never wanted to be a president. His father wanted one of his boys to be president. John F. Kennedy just wanted to have fun. He was just a guy that was having fun. His oldest brother dies in his early 20s in a plane crash in war. And his name is Joseph Kennedy Jr. He's supposed to be the president. He's the real guy. That's the alpha guy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
John F. Kennedy had back issues, bone issues, health issues. He did not want to do this stuff. And then he mentions like, hey, you got to run.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You are a one-on-one? My son's right there.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Adam's in a different lifestyle.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
John F. Kennedy Jr. never wanted to be president. Yep.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, John F. Kennedy never wanted to be president.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, what does that sound, by the way? I don't know. The static? Okay. So he... The dad would talk about when they were growing up, who's going to be the president first? Is it you, Adam? Who's going to be the president first? And so it was always Joseph. And when the oldest son died, he was depressed, devastated, didn't want to be around people. He was a mess.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And then John F. Kennedy eventually goes and does it. So Lyndon, to me, Yeah, if you were to tell me if stories come out that Lyndon Johnson was behind this whole thing, I would easily believe it.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
By the way, if anybody brings their daughter's year that's between 18 to 21, we tell Adam to take the day off. He is not allowed to be at the office here. But with that being said, we got a lot of stories to get through.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I think we're headed in the right direction. You think we will in our lifetime? I think we will. I think we're headed in the right direction. I think there's going to be some people that even after, with all the evidence, okay, there's still going to be some people that are like, I don't know about that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But I think the score is going to go from whatever it is right now, 63%, 64% of the fact that there was a second shoot or whatever. There's percentages on this. I think that's going to go to 85%, 90%. It's never going to go to 100% because some people just don't want to believe it.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
It is what it is, man. He's just working backwards. But it is what it is. One of these days. Vinny, on the other hand, is living a different life. But stories.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So it's a – That's kind of what's going on with the Democratic Party today though, right?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Right? That's what's going on with the Democratic Party today.
PBD Podcast

The only guy that's saying we screwed up with transgender is Newsom. The only guy that's sitting there... Well, he wants to be president.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He reads like he's got to get to the center, but everybody else is like, no, trans this, and, you know, we still believe in this, and we, you know, that is not fair, and they... You better call him, you know, a woman because she is a woman. No, he's a man. No. And there's the ruckus on what was it? House Congress.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Rob, the one congressman got up and speaks and they were upset because somebody called him, sir. You know which one I'm talking about?
PBD Podcast

Yeah. I mean, they still don't want to give that up. That's a dude. Right.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
The reason why Schultz is here is because Schultz is going to tell us. I asked him. I said, Schultz, before you come here. Specifically, I said three things I want you to do, but the most important thing, I need you to read the 80,000 pages of the JFK file. So he read it last night. He's ready. I got it for you. He's going to give us a breakdown on what happened with that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay. Okay. Let me, let me make the whole argument. Please make the argument. I'm so curious what this. Give it to us.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He's our private investigator. So it's very easy. We'll go through that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Andrew, if I told you I'm going to call me daddy, would you call me daddy? No. Why not? Well, because you're not my dad. But you're not my dad. But I want you to call me dad. I view myself as your daddy. Well, but you're not my dad. But you're right. She's not a man.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But if you wanted me to call you son, I would call you son. Yeah, I get what you're doing here. You're having fun with it, right?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, but calling you ma'am insults my intelligence. It insults science. It insults facts. It insults You know, an actual, you were born a man. You want me to call you a woman because it hurts your feelings?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
We got that to talk about. We got Ripple. For those of you guys that are XRP, I made a video about Ripple a few weeks ago. So many Bitcoin people were Ethereum, so pissed off. But the lawsuit was just dropped. Can you imagine that? Pretty crazy stuff. A few other things. Daily Wire CEO steps down. Jeremy Boring. We'll talk about that. Don Lemon says women at CNN sexually harassed him.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay, so when the 13 becomes 13 and conversations at night when you go home changes, your level of tolerance for these things will change.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So the part for me, like for example, the other day this guy says, I don't give a shit. Who cares about this auto pen, whether he signed it or not, and da-da-da-da-da, and who cares about Fauci, whether he signed the pardon or not? Adam's saying this, right? I said, okay. So I said, Adam, the reason why you don't care is because you're an anomaly. The average person doesn't live your life.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
The average person has a car. This guy's an Uber 24-7, right? He lives a very different life. Okay. That's his choice. He chooses to do it. Everybody on the outside thinks every day this guy's getting fired. He's been here for God knows how many years now. That's not the case. We get along. But the point is...
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What happened during COVID to a lot of parents, they saw that you're like, because we all used to be like, dude, I don't give a shit. I just told you guys a story before going live where I used to go club and I'm like, I never gave a shit. Dude, you do your thing. I'm going to do my thing. We're good. We're totally fine. I was hanging out with Frank Sinatra's son.

JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563

PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
That's it. Okay, folks, we have a special guest in the house. Let me tell you why he's so special. He is so special because we had a chance to go watch this guy's show called Life. I went with my wife and Vinny, and I think Adam was there and Tom was there. Let me tell you, whatever you're doing this weekend, add to your to-do list, watch his special. Just do me a favor and watch it.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I'm not playing your card. Because the way caving works, caving comes in steps. Before there's a high level of cave, there's three levels below it that's an easier cave. Once you cave here, you're like, eh, it's not a big deal. Then you cave here. I really don't want to. Listen, you already caved on. Okay. And then you're like, dude, I am caved on things that I fully don't agree with.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
including one who touched his nipples.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
That's what happened with a lot of voters. Yeah. A lot of voters got so caught up. They're like, dude, I'm a John F. Kennedy Democrat. What the hell is going on with this Democratic Party? I guess I have to kind of vote this way, but I don't agree with this. I don't agree with that. Kind of got lost in translation. So I don't know.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
To me, I feel like it's a little bit too much of pushing the envelope to expect me to call you a man, expect me to call you a woman. He just dressed up. It's totally fine. I'm going to call you Mr. McBride. It's great to have you.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Don Lemon said someone touched his nipples, which is kind of weird.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Because you said he saw his testicle.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
They didn't hold you back is the real question.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I want to know who it is that touched the nipples. Don't you want to know the name? Tell us, Don, who it was. Alec Baldwin's wife, I don't know if you saw that on the red carpet.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I want to get your reaction, especially with this documentary slash Netflix special that you got called Life. You have to see how she reacts. It's very entertaining. Charlie Kirk is doing his stuff, and something happens where a guy claims he was. Anyway, you just have to watch this. Charlie is such a special guy when it comes down to these types of things. Good news for our family.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I saw a tweet the other day that said, I feel sorry for the parents if a kid who they raise well later on transitions and becomes transgender. You raise them well, and then later on they're an adult, 24 years old, they transition and become transgender. He says, but I feel sorry for the kid. when they transition when they're a teenager, and I blame the parent.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So to me, a part of what happened is, in Hollywood, you're looking at all these guys, and their kids are trans, and it's like a competition. Minus two, minus two, me too, me too, me too. So that's the pure pressure of being accepted. Then on the other side, when you're talking about empathy, I feel empathy for kids all the flipping time when I meet them because the kid is not yet fully developed.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I'm like, dude, I truly feel bad for this kid. But he's not coming to – we're not raising him. He's going to go to those parents' house. And if you say something to parents, you're now in that – So you sympathize with the kid. You try to give some feedback to the parents if there's a relationship there. Typically, there's not. So then you're like, dude, I'm asked out.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I really want to find a way to do something with this. I feel bad for the kid. And then on the other side, when you're like a parent comes up and a father came up to me, one of our neighbors, he says, hey, my son just told me this. And we're at dinner, Casa D'Angelo, Jennifer sitting right next to me. The man is crying. He's in his mid-50s. He's like, what do I do?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And then I feel for him because he's not doing it. But the part about this that's the black and white, not the gray area, we should be compassionate. We should have empathy, even for this guy named McBride. We should have empathy for him. What caused him to get here? What happened with his upbringing with his parents?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I don't know. I feel bad. Like even when the Chelsea Handler thing was going on, And, you know, she's talking shit to Adam. Adam's talking shit to Chelsea, the lifestyle she lives. And then you go and look it up, bro. She was nine years old. Her lover of life was her older brother, 22 years old, decides to go camping. He's climbing a mountain or whatever it is. He falls and he dies.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Never comes home. Dad was, I believe, a car dealership salesman. And... She is devastated. The house is devastated. She sees the most powerful man in her house, her father, not know how to handle it. Yeah, of course she's not going to want to have any kind of commitment. You know that kind of pain? These are the things we're not aware of. We should have compassion.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
That's beautiful empathy. It's true empathy. You feel bad for it, right? But at the same time, That still doesn't justify me having to call you a man. My opinion.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Because Happy Gilmore 2 is coming out. My son is a big fan of Happy Gilmore, so the next one's coming out. Something was dropped, JFK Files. I know you've got a bunch of things you want to talk about it. SpaceX, Elon, these guys waited for months. Biden didn't want to do it. They go up there, they bring him down, and...
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay, so you said something earlier. You said, I think both sides care about kids. I don't know. I think the percentage would be more people on the right care for kids than those on the left. Why? Because more people on the right have kids than those on the left.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Unless the poor where it's kind of like because of the benefits that you have that you're paying that, that's a different structure I'm talking about. When you break that down and then you come to people, you read these marriage books, How to Have a Great Marriage, written by a person with six divorces. Because I have experience. Hey, this is how you should raise your kids.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
How many kids do you have? I don't have any kids, but this is how you should raise them. I'm sorry, buddy. Like me giving you advice on how to be a comedian. Do you know how pathetic that is for me to give you advice on how to be a comedian? Do you realize how insane that is for me to tell you, you know what, Andrew? That roast you did on Tom Brady, I think you missed the mark, bro.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
This is what we do all the time. But that's opinion. But for me to tell you from a place of an expert to say, here's what you should have done, and we should all over you, right? That's a different story. But in this part, the people that tell others how to raise kids and you don't have them, stay out of the way. Yeah. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
the people that like, the reason why you're special, I don't just say everybody has to go watch it. The reason why you're special was so awesome is because couples go through that and they're embarrassed to talk about it publicly. And you put it out there. You're like, are you kidding? It is so embarrassing that you almost made everybody feel like, dude, it's okay.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, that was one of the goals. You humanized yourself and indirectly you unified marriages. You probably saved a lot of marriages with the special of yours in the craziest way. Why though? Because you have moral authority. Because you went through it. So I'm like, you know what? I like that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So to me, I have a problem with, you know, the LGBTQ community that's never had a kid to tell me how to raise again. I should be doing this. Knock it off. Okay. Go have a few kids. See how hard it is to have a few kids. Raise them. And if you want to raise them on your values, go for it. These are the values I want to raise them on.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
It's so bad that they have to actually lift him up because they don't know how to walk because they haven't used the muscles. Very interesting stuff. And then Gavin Newsom schools Tim Waltz on Mega. Denies it was just racism and misogyny, and Tim Waltz said he could kick all of their asses, which is pretty epic. I mean, Dana White may want to use him and put him in a ring.

Same guy. Phenomenal guy. He's fair. He's a liberal, but he's very fair. And I like the way he breaks it. He is a liberal, but he's very fair. Most liberals can't be fair. But you know what word you used? You know what was the word you used when you asked me the question? What was the word? How do I feel?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Right? Okay. I get the feeling part. But there's a part of it that... where feelings out the window, when it's reason based on facts, when we get there, I don't care how I feel. For example, Andrew Tate, we've had him on three times. Every time we have him on, you know what people say? What's that? I can't believe you have a former, you know, pedo girls, rape, have you seen these videos?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I'm like, yeah, I've seen the videos. Personally, I'd like to see him be innocent. I'd like the charges to be dropped personally because of the time I've spent with him. And he reminds me of a guy in the army that we hung out with and we got along personally. But let me tell you, if the court proves and the stuff is there and it's all proven, then guess what? I can't debate the facts.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Those are the facts. If that's conclusive, right? And it's shown. So this is where there is the feelings, the relationship. My son, I go to school. I don't want my son to be the one, hey, he hit the other kid or he said this. You go and you're like, my son. And then you're like, show me the facts. Well, here's a tape. Oh, shit. Yeah, he did. There's a facts. I can't. So you're a dude.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
That's a fact. I know it hurts your feelings, but you're a guy.

It would actually get some eyeballs. And then a few other things happened with Kanye and Kim Kardashian that Adam wants to talk about. And then I thought I was going to be someone, say Gen Z's, became a generation of rejects. And then we got two other stories here that we will get into. But before we get into the stories, I'm going to kind of tell you what's going on here right now, guys.

Believing in something you have not yet seen.

JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
feeling. You're right, but at the same time, if I want to get reassurance I seek facts. You know, facts tell stories sell. I want to know the facts. Yes. And then based on my life experiences, I'm probably not going to like some of the facts because it's going to contradict what I thought was true for 46 years. Or I'm going to sit down and be like, see, see, see.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But it's either validation or like, oh, shit, I was wrong. But you're going to go through one of those.

And we want to pretend. Let's transition to a normal story.

Vinny, JFK Files. I'm going to read this to you. So we are told, Rob, that 80,000 pages are being dropped. 80,000 pages are being dropped. And this is something a lot of people have been waiting for. The president says we're not going to redact any of it. We're going to share all of it with everybody. Once it is released, one by one by one, different research people are going through it.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He says, I'll think about that. Go back a couple seconds. Let's play. Yeah, right there.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
By the way, you don't have to play this clip. I think what's powerful about this clip is what Charlie's doing. We had dinner with a couple of very interesting people last night in Miami. I don't know why it was something Boucher, some restaurant named Boucher. Anyways, I don't know what it was. What city were we in in Miami? Bobby Boucher, the Cajun restaurant?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Coral Gables, yeah, somewhere we don't go often, but we were there last night having dinner. Café Bouchon. And Charlie's name came up. Dude, this guy is extremely formidable. You know what's going to be interesting with Charlie? What if Charlie throws a curveball to everybody and he runs in 2028?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Well, I'm going to notice this. I'm going to look for this. I'm going to look for that. Vinny, so far, what have you seen? Because what I see here from Newsweek, Lee Harvey Oswald was poor shot, JFK file reveals. CIA responsible for JFK assassination. Agent says, this is Newsweek. What do the JFK files reveal about Lee Harvey Oswald and Jack Ruby?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He's a Libra. He should be. Yes.

He's eligible to run in 2028.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I know right off the bat he gets an internship or a job with Peter Thiel or something like that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay, this is the Hindustanian Times, which, of course, you got to trust those guys because they do a great job. But let me read what they released. And then what I got here, Vinny, I'm going to come to you next. Here we go. So... What has it written?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Did he do the convincing or did he get picked? Meaning, let me explain what I mean by that. Look, when I saw him debate Waltz, And the way he handled himself when he says, I'm so sorry to hear you went through that and you and your family went through that. That was the moment where I'm like, wow. Feeling. Empathy. He got it. Yes, of course. Absolutely.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And even liberals have to say, this seemed like a presidential debate because of the way he carried himself.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Wait a minute, this guy's being good. That's right.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
That's right. It was phenomenal. It was a clinic. Honestly, if anybody wants to... Watch a clinic of a debate. Go watch the debate he had. The way he handled himself was so impressive.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He's collected. But what I will say to Schultz is... I'm sorry. I'm not done. What happened right now? I'm still giving my opinion. Oh, I didn't know that. Hang tight. Let me make my point. I'll come to you, bro. You're sitting... I'm going to give you your... No, you won't. Throw something at this guy, buddy. Throw a little flip-flop at this guy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So Adam gets excited when comedians show up because he wants to show that he's a comedian. And sometimes to him, it's a very important thing. By the way, we give a disclaimer before the podcast. You're not a professional comedian. You're not going to convince me about that. Kick back. But anyway. So let me go back to the point with J.D.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So, however, having said that, the part you've got to be thinking about is the following. Here's the part. I'm not deep into it to know how many of these positions are positions where a person says, I will come and give this support. and I'll bring Zuck for you, and I'll bring Amazon for you, and I'll bring this for you in exchange for a VP. I don't know if that happens.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Interesting. I think in these moments, for somebody to say, look, I'll fully commit if you allow me to recommend somebody as a VP, and if that happens, I'll give X, Y, Z amount of money. If there's anybody that you have to be careful with doing that with is Trump. Why? Because Trump's going to do what Trump's going to do. However, Trump's also a negotiator.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Manect me after you're done watching it, but go watch his special. You'll thank me later. And by the way, watch it with your wife, maybe not with your kids, but definitely with your wife. You will crack up. Let me tell you what's happening with this guy a little bit to understand how big of a deal he is.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
1,123 pages released Tuesday by President Trump detailing Lee Harvey Oswald's pre-'63 assassination travels, including to Finland, Mexico City, Soviet, Cuban embassies, where he sought a Cuban visa per the National Archives files, an FBI memo from Director J. Edgar Hoover written hours after Oswald's death, urges per the files to assure the public that Oswald was the one who killed Kennedy amid his arrest for shooting JFK in Dallas, with Trump noting,

JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Like, for example, one of the deals that Epstein's not being released, a guy on my next circles, Alan Klein, right?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He says, why do you think Schumer agreed and he caved? You think there's any correlation with the Epstein files not being released? I don't know. Maybe it's a form of a leverage. I don't know that. You don't know that, right? So we don't know what's going on. But I think at these levels, at these high, high levels, how big of a role did Musk play in the 2024 election? Huge. Massive. Pennsylvania.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Huge. 250 contacts, relationship, calling people out. Anybody that went against Trump, just kind of doing that part. So... I don't know. And then Don Jr. was very complimentary of J.D. Vance. There's a lot of talk about different people. And I actually think they picked the right guy, to be honest with you.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
How do you put him with Vivek? They went to school together. What's the difference between the two?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, he talks like he's poor.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
That was such a good point you made.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
By the way, Peter Thiel, you know what he is? Yeah. What? There are the next phase of the power players behind closed doors that are super, super. There's power players. And then there's that guy. And then there's super power players. And then there's that guy. He is in the top five list of super power players. Wow. Kingmaker. He's a kingmaker. He is a very, very unique guy. Very.

Look, there's two things you can't teach man in life. You can read all the books. You can go to online courses. You can go to conferences. You can take whatever online course on anything you want. You can take it. Great. You can't teach instinct, you can't teach intuition. You cannot teach it.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Instinct and intuition is pure DNA, genetics, it's you, it's what you've seen, it's what moments you've been to be able to read. You know how you talk about, and you say, I don't know why, but 50, whatever 50, he's never wrong. That's a what? That's a street guy that's got intuition, so when he calls out one guy like,
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
We have a tremendous amount of paper. You've got a lot of reading, ties that know it, with files showing links to gambling, racketeering from Chicago roots of Jacob Rubenstein, procurator Stephen Fagan, great last name, who said Ruby is for some people the Rosetta Stone that you can use to unwrap the entire Kennedy conspiracy theory. We've got a bunch of things to show you here.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
The only way you build that is for having been in a lot of these weird, intense meetings to see and study body language, and you have to have a little bit of a rough life where it was not stable to be able to size them up. Peter Thiel is one of those guys. Adam.

Out of all the audiences you've been in, sports, Knicks, playoffs, comedy, how does this rank? Energy when you were in there.

Unbelievable. Was that not one of the sickest documentaries of all time? That got me back in. I watched it overnight and woke up early just to finish it in one night. I couldn't stop.

Yeah, that was a cool experience watching it there. Next story. Daily Wire co-CEO Jeremy Boring steps down. Axios.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
A conservative media company, Daily Wire, started in 2015 and announced in a memo to staff on Tuesday that he is stepping down as co-CEO to focus on creative work, saying, I will remain with the company in an advisory role and focus full-time on creative projects, including completion of Daily Wire's TV series, The Pendragon Cycle, where he is the director and executive producer. Boring.

JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
who helped launch the outlet with $4.7 million and seed alongside Caleb Robinson and Ben Shapiro, grew it to a billion-dollar value market media giant. He will continue hosting Daily Wire backstage, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan. Caleb Robinson and the company's founding CEO and co-CEO with Boring since 2019 will take over as a full-time CEO immediately.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Boring's decade-long tenure saw the Daily Wire expand from a small news startup into a major player with Daily Wire subscription streaming service. And Ben Key, a kid streamer, as he noted in his shift, I will remain with the company in an advisory role. This is a very nicely written article and put a valuation on the business, which is incredible. Very kind.

Tom, how closely are you following this? Are you following this at all?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Just regular coffee or Starbucks? Whatever works for you. They have it, if we can just bring it in right now.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
When you're on Starbucks, we'll get down the street. No, they got one.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Exactly. Yeah, exactly. No, that's what I'm saying. Wait a minute. What do you mean by that? Are you saying the fact that there's no longer an enemy and that's why they took a hit?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Meaning they don't have an enemy? Is that kind of what you're saying? So there's not an antagonist anymore because you won?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
There's a part of it that I want to believe that, but also, Rob, if you, Pull up the article that says Fox just had their most viewership ever. Ever. And it was a record-breaking. I think this was just reported last week, if I'm not mistaken, Rob.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
No, not this one. This is something that came up. This is the 506 out of 506, top 506 shows. There you go. out of 506 were all from Fox News. But I thought it was going to be something where liberals were going to, you know, different shows to be able to go after Trump. Because, you know, comedians like when Bush was president, you know, you saw Will Ferrell.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I'm going to talk about taking steroids out of T-Ball, you know, right? So I thought that was going to be taking place. But the question with the business, Tom, do you know anything about their business or no? Is there any stories about the business that's public or no?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Oof. So that's July 19, 1967. Yeah. Okay, what else do you have?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah. I mean, look, here's the reality of it. Running a business is very hard. It's so easy from the outside to criticize anybody that's running a business. It's so hard it's not even funny. You lose sleep. It leads to marriages not working out. It leads to friendships not working out. It leads to anxiety, to panic, to sleepless nights, to criticism. But you chose to do that. You chose the job.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So that's not like nobody told you not to do it. You do a Netflix special. and it isn't good, the market's going to tell you. You crush it, they're going to tell you. As a comedian, you have a risk. As an athlete, you have a risk. As a performer, you have a risk. And they have a risk there as well.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
A few years ago, when we got acclimated, we started building a relationship, he was famous, but not famous like today. You could text him, and it was like 30 minutes. Boom, we're going back and forth all this stuff. But then when levels of fame increases, it goes to a day, a week. He's not at the month yet, to a year. But let me tell you where it got to.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
The reality of it is, when it comes down to Jeremy, my gut feeling, when I went the first time to Paramount, when the building that Glenn Beck and the Blaze bought, I said, wow, Glenn, so you run this entire place? He says, oh, hell no. I'm just a creative. I was like, whoa. You know how long it took him to say that? Half a second.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So he left to start The Blaze and then he realized he's just a creative. He's an artist. One of the hardest things to do is to be a creative and be able to operate. That is not easy. Because imagine he's trying to be an actor, and he's trying to do the movie, and he's trying to get into the part, and then at the same time, hey, we just lost three employees.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What do you want me to do with this new guy that we hired? All right, cut. Guys, I need seven minutes. Great point. And he tried to smile. Hey, Jeremy, you look angry.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
let me watch a cat video hey two more people quit let me give me a break cut like dude it's like if you're an artist be an artist like when you see christian bale lose his shit yeah i understand yeah you're a creative leave me the f alone put the freaking mic up i'm trying to get into this part you're standing there holding the shit getting in do your damn job right so I understand the creative.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You're trying to be creative, and you're trying to do this. One of the best things Greg Popovich ever told, I was about to say Derek Harper. Who was the guy? Derek Parker? Was it something? Tony Parker. I said Harper.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Have a little respect for Tony Parker.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He said, hey, I think I want to be the number one guy. I read the story somewhere. So he says, look, you can go anywhere else you want. You'll average 32 points a game. You'll be a superstar. You'll be up there. No problem. You will not win championships. Tim Duncan's our player. Wow. If you want to play point guard, you got a place here. We'll win championships.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
If Jeremy is able to just be creative and give his wealth of knowledge he has of basketball, What do you call it? Daily Wire. And, you know, who's the other Caleb is a Caleb. If you don't know what he looks like, that's better. So if you you want a celebrity. Yeah. So if he Caleb Robinson, I think Caleb, if he know to the right, Rob, to the right, this is Caleb Robinson. I think that's the guy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
If he's one of the owners of a producer. Yeah, so if the co-CEO, they mentioned the name here. Can you make sure I get the name right? Who else, the co-CEO?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
If he's the CEO and Jeremy becomes creative and Ben is doing his thing here, and he goes back and forth with Nashville, whatever he's doing, they have to recreate themselves. But also don't forget, there's another group of people that nobody hears about, and that's investors. Investors will come in and they'll say things like this. Um, that's not working out. Yeah. What do you mean? It's time.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And then there's a very ugly board meeting. Very entertaining. Back and forth.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
And you have to find a way to make a decision gently. And slowly, the person who leaves is going to tell their version of the story. Then the company in many times, they can't tell the full story. So they're the ones that are going to be bashed for a long time because they can't fully tell the whole story. Like, I wish you knew what happened, but I can't tell you the full story.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Then there's employees on the inside that are leaking information to others on the outside. So podcasters and everybody else is kind of telling their version of the story. And then there's people that are leaking misinformation to confuse everybody with a story. But it takes two, three, four, five years, and then you realize what really happened. Here, I actually think Jeremy's a creative guy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He has a dream. Since he was a kid, he wants to do something. Go for it. I like the fact that Candice was very respectful to Ben, gave Ben the respect. And I actually really like the way she did it. And I would like to see those two do something here soon, Candice and Ben. I think it would be great. for them to do a conversation together. I'm not saying her going, but that'll never happen.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I'm just saying the fact that they do something together because a team of rivals is still better than what the enemy is trying to do to everybody. If we can figure out a way to get the team of rivals to work together, it's a good thing. And trust me, I've done many jobs that the responsibility has been on me that I hated it. I'll never forget one of my guys were sitting on a board.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Tom, you may remember this. I said, how much do you like selling annuities? I hate it. Really? Yes. I hate it. I don't want that responsibility. What do you want to do? I just want to do this. I said, no problem. If I say the thing, everybody will know who I'm talking about. I said, you will never have to worry about this. Focus on this. Are you good? The level of anxiety and panic gone.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He performed well here. We gave this job to another person that Tom hired. we were good to go. Smart. So I hope this happens. And by the way, don't be surprised if somebody comes in and picks it up. And Adam, I'm moving on. Don't be surprised if somebody comes in and tries to pick it up and buy it and there's some kind of thing that happened. Great.

So you know where you go with this. Now you're talking business model where the difference is they went after people that were already established outside of Brett Cooper. Candace was already established. Jordan Peterson was already established. Maybe a couple people that came up there. But the business model has to be questioned as well. You have to sit there and question the business model.

The Snooki brothers. All right. So not much here for you. Let's go to the next story, Rob. Yeah, I kind of want to go through this story. China, Hong Kong threaten to thwart sale of Panama Canal ports to America's Black Rock. Very, very weird, interesting thing happened here when you look at this. Okay, very interesting thing happened here.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
China and Hong Kong push back against a $23 billion deal where Black Rock, a U.S. investment giant, would buy a Panama Canal ports, Cristobal and Balboa. One is at the North Atlantic and the other one is at the South. from C.K. Hutchinson owner, Hong Kong billionaire, Lee Ka Shing, with Hong Kong leader John Lee saying it deserves serious attention. President Donald Trump praises it as the U.S.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
reclaiming the canal, but Beijing probes into antitrust and national security concerns that could derail it. As expert Gordon Chang warns, if Beijing stops this deal, that's a direct challenge to the President of the United States on an issue that he really cares about. The canal handles 5% of global trade.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
The deal, which includes 43 ports from 23 different countries, aimed to counter Trump's claim that China used the canal to rip off U.S. ships and fees. But Lee jabbed at Trump, saying, we oppose the abusive use of coercion of bullying or bullying tactics in international economic and trade relations. Tom, your thoughts on this?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
the Panama Canal and if you don't know how important it is you should watch some of the stuff that we've done and that this man has done because we've talked about how big and important this port is yeah I mean this is 43 ports that they bought in the canal right now there's five ports okay China owned two of them we owned a very small port that's uh they call now facility Singapore owned a small facility and I think Thailand owned a small facility now we bought two of them
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
One is here, Atlantic. The other one is here, Pacific. Very, very important that that is now taking place. But there's a couple things that the history with this is unique. This guy, C.K. Hutchinson, the founder, the owner of it, back in the 90s, he had a real estate deal that he did that she prevented from happening. So the two have history for many, many years of this taking place.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Many, many years of this taking place. And while this is going back and forth, he does real estate sell-off in 2020, 2021, way before, and G did not like that. So now he's selling this, and the deal happened very quickly. By the way, on the back end, think about it on the back end. BlackRock. What happened to BlackRock last four years?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
DEI, you got the net zero deal. You had ESG. So watch this. Whoever did this deal, brilliant. In January, if you can go rob and you look at the net, what was it called? Type in net, not net zero. What's the... type in zero BlackRock climate change. Type in zero BlackRock climate change. It should be January.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Net zero statement right there. Net zero. Go to, yeah, if you can go to net zero, go back a little bit, Rob, to see under the news. Go to news.com. If you can't go to news right there, zoom in a little bit. Look at the days. BlackRock quits Climate Group as Wall Street lowers environmental profile. Do you know how big of a deal that was?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
This was the $60 trillion deal that BlackRock was like, we're going to go fix climate change, and you better be a part of it, and you better have a high ESG score or else. Remember this whole thing that we were talking about? Boom. BlackRock says we're out. Then in February, what do you think they do? In February, I think it's 24th, they say we're out of DEI.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
When do you think the deal happens? First week of March. So whether this was, and by the way, you know who coached them through the process of this deal getting done with Panama Canal? Scott Besant, Marco Rubio, President Trump, and others coached them through the process of doing this. And you know how quickly this sale happened?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Like this, very quickly, and President Trump's been complimentary of BlackRock. I think founder Larry Fink in 2017 saying he made him some money in the past before. Here's the question and a concern. The main question we have to ask is the following. It's two questions, and see how you feel about this. Do you feel more comfortable, BlackRock, owning the Panama Canal?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Do you know what type of leverage that is? Let me tell you. If people were worried about tariffs... If we, U.S., BlackRock, owns the canal against them, China, they came up with something written by the BBC that said any company that's based out of China, at any point we can seize that company and control the decisions. You know what it means? If China wants to say C.K. Hutchison from China U.S.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
is not playing ball with us with tariffs. Guess what we're doing? We're stopping anything to go through Panama Canal. China could do that. With a law that they passed in 2020, Rob, I think if you can have Brandon send it to you, something that they did in 2020, 2021 when they wrote about it. So the question becomes, are you more comfortable with these two ports being owned by China, C.K.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Hutchinson, or BlackRock? That's the question. Andrew, what do you think?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You guys keep going. Go ahead. You go pee.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Don't get harassed because there's a bunch of girls out there. Tom, I have a fun fact. You know their EBITDA was $1.7 billion, and BlackRock bought it for 13x EBITDA, and they said usually these ports, the comps, are 16x EBITDA. So some say he was supposed to pay $5 billion more, but then Morningstar analysts said this was only a $10 billion deal, and they paid $13 billion more.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
70% is us. So guess what? If – and just cross your fingers that this gets picked up in U.S., Because the only concern I have with BlackRock owning it is this. I don't have a problem with BlackRock owning it now with Trump being the president. I have very big concerns on who runs BlackRock next and who is president next. Because if a China, you know how you play Monopoly?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What are the two pieces you don't want to lose? Boardwalk. Boardwalk and what?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay. Let's just say those two pieces right before you get what? Cash, you pass school, you get $200? Okay. Imagine somebody just gives that up to somebody else. You're like, dude, why'd you just sell that tool? You're not supposed to sell Boardwalk and Park Place. China, if this deal goes through, lost Boardwalk and Park Place.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You know how long this guy's owned it, C.K. Hutchison? Almost 25 years, give or take. Because if we buy this piece and keep it... China will do everything it can to make sure this deal doesn't go through and even more to make sure they buy it back from the next person that becomes president. You're going to see this is not over with. Those are because the level of leverage.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So now imagine Trump was to go and say, I'm going to put tariffs on you, China. Oh, yeah, I'm going to put tariffs on you. No problem. The port's closed for you.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
At the highest level. Because if you don't go, the difference is 5,000 additional miles, give or take.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Forget it. Yeah, so this is a very, very big deal. If they get it done, who the hell even thought about this before they talked about it? Nobody. But the people that brought this to Trump, or if this was Trump's idea on his own, this is massive. Tom.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What would you like to know? I think for you, though, because I think the audience cares to know your opinion. You're a guy that's—comedians are brilliant, and they're very smart, and you're not just a comedian. You're a very smart guy. Your camera's off. One can have a six-hour conversation dinner with you, and it's going to be actually a very good conversation.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Like I said, this is two of the most, like if right now we had an unlimited amount of supply of companies to buy, there's three pieces that we'd love to buy, okay? Three assets that we would love to buy. Very important to buy these three assets, right? This is privately. You and I talk about this regularly. Sure.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
This is a top three of the fact that if they get this deal done, China's going to do everything in their power to prevent this from happening.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
It's not done yet. It's not done yet.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Disappear! I can't hear Andrew. What's the last thing that happened to Jack Ma? He's red. Can you turn him on?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What happened to Jack Ma could happen to this guy here. Anyways, two more stories before we wrap up. Your friends Myron Gaines just did a Super Chat, so let me read it to you. Vinny, I hope you're ready for this as well. Israel killed JFK to protect their nuclear program.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Israel killed RFK because he was snooping around and never trusted the Warren Commission and tried to make them register under FARA. David Ferry and Jack Valenti were shooters. You're welcome. Tell Schultz. Are you guys, like, that close? Like, are you guys, like, hanging out, like, having dinner together?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But $100 Super Chat, he did two Super Chats. I mean, that's a way of giving love.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What do you think? I will tell you, he's a very good communicator, and this is one of those things that I think he is willing to die on.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Pull up the one story about... on John F. Kennedy that you guys talked about, I think on Unusual. You know there was three of the fouls, one of them having to do with Israel.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I have no idea that there's issues, just so you know that.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What does it read? Angela, CIA directors permitted. Angleton can't read the rest. Projects, many of them, their intelligence service. Israel intelligence, he was given authority by the CIA. Okay. What does this mean, Rob?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
You didn't read the 80,000 documents in the last 24 hours? You know what I'm looking for? Come on, Rob. By the way, I think this is going to take a couple weeks because even some of the stuff Grok and Chad GBT is saying right now is contradicting itself. But I hope... I don't care who was behind it. I just want to know. I hope we get 100% to the bottom of what happened here with the story.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Dude, he's going to use that as his intro.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
It got to a point that he got so famous that I used to call... I would say, hey, Andrew, how you doing? This is Larry Andrew Schultz Handler. How can I help you? He's graduated to that level of wealth. He's making money like never before, like never before. And you know he's got the savings because of the haircut he got. He saves that money. He's very committed to saving money. Got a family.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, yeah. When does he get killed? 18 months ago.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Do you remember the story of Robert Moses? Oh, yeah, the developer. The developer in New York, the stuff that he did. So the stories you hear about this guy, he was never a money guy.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
But he knew how to get the money guys to own favors, and all the money guys feared him. It's not necessarily always that, you know... the rich guys that get things done. Sometimes it's the guy like a J. Edgar Hoover or the mob or guys like him who have so much intel on somebody that they can get them to do things that they typically wouldn't do.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
So it's also whoever has the most intel to be able to bribe, to be able to hold hostage, to be able to do a lot of different things. There are many different business models at this level, and it can get nasty. So, yes, I agree. Who the hell knows what happened there behind closers and who's pulling the strings?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
I want to know who is the first domino with this. That's all I want to know. I can't wait for it to come out. Let me do this last one. Let me do the last one. And we're done. Kanye West says... Fuck Jay-Z and Beyonce drags own kids into mess and latest expletive filed tirade. Adam, you said you wanted to talk about this one. Let me see. What's going on here?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What is the story here that you wanted to talk about to wrap up with?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, today. I would say known. Maybe a word would be known. Sure, sure, sure.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Then go ahead. I mean, it's just... I don't know what it's about. This is about the... Let me just read this.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What is this one about? I don't even know what this is about.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Like, do you think that there's... Look, I'll go three levels lower than this. Remember when Ryan Garcia was doing what he was doing last year?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
What are you doing? Some of the stuff was a little bit far, and he was getting the eyeballs. Maybe it was last year, a year and a half. I don't know when the fight was. You know what I'm talking about.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Notice it's been very quiet for a while, right?
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Who's in your ear? I have no idea who's in your ear. I have no idea who's in your ear. And sometimes it goes back to what Aaron Spicer said 20-some years ago to me. He says, one of the worst things about being an artist is, he says, are you good with a lot of idle time? I said, no, I need to always be doing something. He says, this isn't for you. He says, it's not good for you.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
He says, artists screw things up when they have a lot of time on their hands. Sometimes having too much time on your hands, your imagination goes. You know, it's like the athlete that retires and comes home, now is around the wife all the time. They're fighting all the time.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Yeah, because you used to have somebody else to fight. Now it's your wife you're fighting with. So, I don't know. I don't know what's going on here. And he got divorced, I believe, again.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Anyways, gang, if you're watching this today, remember, you have an appointment this weekend. You have an appointment. And by the way, if you want to accelerate that appointment to tonight, you can do that. Put it in your calendar and go watch the life. Andrew Schultz life. And watch it with your spouse. And FYI, if you're not even married yet.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
If you're engaged or if you're dating someone that's pretty serious that you may get married one day, watch it with her and with him. Trust me on this. You're going to say thank you afterwards. This is one of the sickest specials I've ever watched, and it's one of those things that I'll be recommending.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
In 30 years, there's a lot of specials that you won't recommend after a year or two years or five years or 10 years. In 30 years, this will be recommended to husbands and wives. Because what he talks about in there is evergreen permanently. Of course, unless if AI comes at him, we're no longer having issues. It fixes it all. All of a sudden.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Andrew, you're the man. Keep shining. Keep doing what you're doing. We love seeing everything that's happening. God bless everybody. Take care. Forgive Adam. Future looks bright. Take care. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.
PBD Podcast
JFK Files Release w/ Andrew Schulz | PBD Podcast | Ep. 563
Okay, so let me ask this question. Maybe the question is the following. Say this is out and inconclusive, okay? The CIA did it. We did it. I mean, you just saw the document right there that we're going to kill him and then the guy that killed Kennedy.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
So for those of you that have been waiting for two hours... We appreciate you, and thank you for understanding. We put Brazilian time over in the States. Okay. A lot going on.

Here's what I want you to be thinking about. Let's say this is not right, okay? And let's say it's not being reported the right way. Let's say. Snopes doesn't even say it's wrong.

DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Now, go back to the other one with the age that we just showed. If you go back to the one that we just talked about with Social Security payments, Trump Social Security age. If you go to this, there is no false. It's just giving you a report. Keep going lower, lower, lower. So they don't even want to put false, partly false, partly misleading, nothing. I don't know why. Now, let me read this part.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Who do you think would be most accountable if these numbers were being reported? The head of who? Social Security. Perfect. Rob, Vinny is so loud. Even when I lower it on mine, like I can't even.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
I've texted you guys four times already. I don't know what else to say. On mine, specifically on mine. It pops. The head of Social Security resigns. After clash with Elon Musk, why would you resign? It's kind of weird, no?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
So Michelle King, the acting commissioner of Social Security Administration, resigns after refusing Elon Musk's Doge access to sensitive SSA. Nancy Altman, president of Social Security Works, explained Doge wanted access to SSA-sensitive files the same way they're trying to do at Labor and Treasury and the acting commissioner wouldn't give it. And she was replaced.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Trump has nominated Frank Bisignano as the next commissioner, while Leland Dudick, great name, head of SSA anti-fraud division, has taken over in the interim. Musk tasked by Trump with looking into government waste, fraud, and abuse. posted a chart showing more than 20 million Americans have listed this, da-da-da-da-da. So why would she resign after the clash with Musk, Brian?

DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
The Social Security voters, apparently there's 130-year-olds voting, and there's millions of them, and even President Trump's reading and saying, what the hell is this all about?

PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Yeah, let me tell you why.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Because here's how audits work. You know how audits work?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Okay. So as a business owner, we get audited every year. You know, it's like, oh, my God, I'm getting audited. Okay, bro. Every year. It's a leisure, right? It's not even like a, it's like, yeah, we're going to find out, like, for example, if you're selling a business, you tell me your business makes profits $10 million a year.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Okay. And I have to believe you. And I say, it makes $10 million? You say yes. If your business makes $10 million, based on that, I'll give you $80 million for your company.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Then that's a letter of intent based on me auditing your financials to see if it's real. Then I go hire a company and I spend $100,000, $200,000. They come sit in your office for two weeks, literally, two accountants. We'll come sit there, and if it's a big deal, maybe more. But they'll send the office, and they're going through all your –

Tonight's the rematch of them in the city of Boston. Vinny just told me right now that game of them talking shit is happening tonight in Boston. Oh, my God. I want to see what happens there. These guys are going to need secret service to leave. They're going to need protection when they leave that place talking shit to Americans.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
And they'll say, after doing a quality of earnings, they come back and say, no, it's actually $6.2 million. So our offer is now $48 million. Right. Because after auditing your financials, you're not a $10 million net profit company. Or they'll come back and say, you're actually $10.5 million. Our offer stays $80 million. Great, right?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
So to me, auditing doesn't mean we're going to be right 100% of the time.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
No, all I'm saying is I love that they're tripping. I love that they're tripping and they're going, they're like, listen, if this is true, this is insane. Let's find out if it's true. That's what they're doing. Look, it's a revolution. I love it. Yeah, I mean, he comes out and he says, you know, we're going to go to Fort Knox. Why are we going to Fort Knox? Let's see if the gold is there.

And then you look at the ledger. Do you know what they have on the ledger that they're pricing the average price of gold?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Why? If we actually price it out for what it's worth today, that's a $700, $800 billion, $1 trillion reserves, give or take.

Let me put it to you this way. So every employee gets 30 days vacation every year. You can't do nothing about it. In December, every employee gets an additional 13th month payment. So if you make $14,000 a month, the business owner is supposed to pay an additional $4,000 a month at the end. So that's now 14 months of pay. Then if you work for the government...
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Most government employees, some of them make an additional 14-month payment. So they pay you an additional. So you really want to work for the government. Then taxes, regulation. So he says business owners can't afford to pay their employees, and employees are not making enough money to survive. The problem is what? Both ways.

And typically, you know, an Elon who has a lot of kids, he wants to have a lot of kids. This would be the 13th, right? And would a person like that, as smart as he is, do you think he would have a structure of how people, like I remember one time I met a guy, very wealthy guy who had a lot of kids, wanted to have nothing to do with the responsibility of being a father. That's terrible. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
He had 20 kids, and he had a very arranged contract that was written, and he pays them a certain amount of money, and they have the kid, and he sees the kid, but that was a responsibility. Elon, you're always seeing him with his kid. You're seeing him with the kid on the shoulder and all the stuff that he's got while he's different places. Maybe he wanted to have a kid with her.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Maybe they had the conversation. Maybe he's still following her or he's not following her.

Yeah, I had a chance to – she was at the Manect event, and she was very sweet. When we had the conversation together, she was – I think we had a couple exchanges at the Manect event. I know you guys were talking a lot together as well. But in an issue like this, some people are saying, well, you know, You claim you're a conservative, this, this, and that. You had all these kids.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Other people are saying, hey, leave them alone. If they had a kid, it's their business. Celebrate. Anytime somebody has a kid, you should just say congratulations, et cetera, et cetera. Wherever you stand there, that's your opinion.

I want steroids. I want home runs. So, Rob, can you play this clip when they're playing the national anthem, U.S. versus Canada? Vinny, you're telling me this game was not a big deal of a game. The game that they're playing tonight is the big deal, right?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
That's in Canada.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
But where in Canada?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
They're playing the national anthem. And listen to the booze, folks. Go ahead, Rob. Oh, I wish you knew what this does to me.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
I've never wanted to watch a hockey game as much as I want to watch a game tonight. All right, so by the way, pause this here. I send a video clip I watch this guy here, okay? He dismantles the NBA. And folks, for some of you guys, I could give a shit about sports. Just please let this man break down what he said about hockey and NBA.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Do you know when Michael played, Rob, can you pull up the clips of how many people watched the NBA All-Star Game? Type in NBA All-Star Game viewership history. It's embarrassing what LeBron James and Adam Silver did to the game. Go down to history.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Well, he's going to explain it to you. You have to hear what he has to say. Put in history, Rob, and if you go a little bit lower, it'll show you the history ratings right there. Yeah, if you go a little bit lower and just kind of see. Okay, look at it. And by the way, this is only since 2000. Look what the number was in 03, 13.1 million, right? Do you know what it was in the 90s?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Can you please, Rob, find 1992 NBA All-Star Game viewership? 1992 NBA All-Star Game viewership, okay? Watch this. How? Charles Barkley, MJ.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
An all-star game! To 4 million! They've destroyed the league. It is the worst sport right now to own a stock in today. If they don't change it, it is the shittiest product right now of all the four sports. The shittiest product. And watch what this person eloquently breaks down why hockey... is winning and why NBA today is embarrassing, even though NBA has more viewership than hockey.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Let this man explain it to you. I believe his name is P.K. Subban. Go for it, P.K.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Bingo.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
I'm like, good for you, buddy. I was a diehard fan of the game. I'm telling you, at the highest level, I never missed a game. They destroyed a great game because of politics, bullshit, and giving all the power to players. They forgot the fans are the number one customers. NHL realized it. It's the fans, NFL fans, MLB fans, NBA fans. NBA thinks the fans work for them.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Rob, can you do me a favor? Go to the numbers, and then Brian, I'm going to come to you first. Go to the numbers on the age of the voters. So this is what was posted initially, which, by the way, the number doesn't add up. It's higher than our population. According to Social Security Database, these are the numbers of people in each bucket with the death field set to false.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
It's a complete disgusting mindset.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
What I'm talking about specifically is what he's saying here with NBA product. NBA products, Rob, if you can find the all-star game, you have to see. Nobody cares for the viewership. Is it the money?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
I just told you. They've made it about the players, and the players own everybody. The players have so much. And the other day, Draymond Green is saying, like, yeah, you know, we got a very bad collective bargain agreement. What are you talking about? They're killing it. Your players don't even have to play, and the owners still have to pay the money to these guys. The owners are not protected.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
The fans are not protected. You know what? I'd love to take my kids to go see a good NBA game. I can't do it because it's a risk. You don't know who's going to be at the game. You don't know who's going to be playing. Really? No, you don't know who's going to be playing. Wow. You have no idea who's going to be playing.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Go back to the stats. Go back to the stats. 2003 is the last time they hit double digits. The year LeBron got drafted, from that year on, nobody's giving a shit about the All-Star game. The last time we hit 10 million plus, look at that number right there. Prior to that, 13 million, 30% drop-off. 7 million, 10 million, go lower, go lower, go lower.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Look at that, 17 million, 98, last year on Michael. 17 million, 17 million, 15 million, 13 million, 1993, 23 million people watched the NBA All-Star Game even in 1990.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
In 1990, it was 13 million. The idea of how bad, shitty, entitled policies turns off customers. The moment Juan Soto said after the game was over with, when he said, are you willing to do this? What do you think about the pride of Yankees? I'm willing to take offers from everybody. The moment he said that, I don't have any decision-making. I'm not a majority owner. I'm a minority guy.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Maybe Twilight is real and there are a lot of vampires collecting Social Security. Zero to nine, 38 million. So I love this as a story. Yeah, let me read it. Let me read it. I'm going to come to you. Zero to nine, 38 million. 10 to 19, 44 million. 20 to 29, 47. Then he got 52. 100 to 109. There's 4.7 million people between ages of 100 to 109. What's the next one, Rob? 110 to 119, 3.6 million.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
The moment he said that, I'm like, you know what? Do whatever you want to do. Go wherever you want to go. You forget the pride of being a Yankee. You forget the pride of being a Yankee.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
It's not even about the business part. You're all going to make money. He is by far the most highest paid, overrated athlete of all time.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
No one's ever... The numbers you look at of what kind of money they paid this guy... It's astronomical. For a guy to get paid the biggest contract in the history of baseball with the stats that he put up, the stats are good. These are not compared to the stats and the defense and all this other stuff. No way.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
By the way, if he got $760 million, if Barry Bonds was alive today, playing with the numbers he was putting up, comparing him to Juan Soto, Barry Bonds would have deserved $2.5 billion.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
That's how much better Barry Bonds was than this guy.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Yeah, so anyways, for me, it's about the pride. Look, they're going to make a lot of money. The game's a great game, and they deserve to make a lot of money because the teams are making a lot of money. But the NBA product absolutely sucks. All in all, you know what the message is? Tonight, Canada, U.S., Boston. Tonight, Canada-US-Boston.

Do I get free water?

Did you know, I'm almost in my mind thinking about finding a way to go to Boston tonight to be at that game. I want to go to this game. I'm just thinking, I haven't been in the freaking country for four days.

Well, so we're at the Hampton summer and we take the kids out to get on the horse. First of all, I put my, my, my daughter, uh, if I find this video, the horse looks at Pat and goes, we get on the horse and I'm like, I told my wife, I'm like, babe, if we're getting on a horse, 20 to 30 minutes.
PBD Podcast

That's nothing.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Yeah. So if I find this clip, man, it was so funny. So we go to the Hamptons. With Brooklyn. With Brooklyn. And this horse comes up. And the moment the horse moves the neck a little bit, she was gone.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
By the way, we went on a horse ride for an hour and a half. It was an hour and 15 minutes too long. By the time we got off, one of my testicles, I couldn't have a kid anymore.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Maybe we need to buy Elon Musk a horse. This was it.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
But there's nothing relaxing about it. I will never do it for 90 minutes.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Way too much. It's too much. 90 minutes is too much for me. But we'll go to the derby.

I love him. They love him. They love Vinny. Okay, Rob, is there a story that we haven't covered that we should cover? Okay, I'll do this one here, Tom. EU denies making offer to U.S. on lowering its tariff for cars. Okay, this is a Bloomberg story, and Tom, I'm coming to you first. The European Union denies making any offer to lower tariffs on U.S.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
cars, contradicting President Trump's claim that EU had already reduced them. The European Commission stated that any tariff reductions must be mutually beneficial, negotiated with an affair and rules-based framework. Trump has been pushing for reduction in EU's 10% tariff on U.S. cars compared for the U.S. 's 2.5% tariff. Tariff on European vehicles.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Trump announced 25% tariff on imports of steel and aluminum and hinted at higher auto tariffs, which would particularly impact German automakers. EU Trade Chief Maros Sefcovic is scheduled to meet with Trump's Commerce Secretary nominee, Howard Lutnick, Trade Representative nominee, Jamie Currier, to discuss these matters. Tom, your thoughts on the story?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
All right. Let's see what happens. All that means is European cars may get slightly cheaper. If they get cheaper, that's a good thing for Americans. They're going to have to pay less. And what's that one?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
This is why there's no relief ahead for high used car prices. Wall Street Journal. What is it saying?

PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
Noah's Ark, he's the animal whisperer. When animals see Vinny, there is an emotional connection, a mutual respect I've never seen before. The other day, we're walking the dogs, and a squirrel comes. This is a squirrel that attacks everybody.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
He sees Vinny. I've never seen this before. The squirrel's on his four, on four, stands up on two, and goes like this to Vinny. Goes like this to Vinny. And I saw that. I'm like, I was one second too late. Because a lot of people don't believe me right now.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
The squirrel stood up like this, looked at Vinny, went like this. That is an unspoken truth.

Analyzing Musk's claim. Let's look at this. Analyzing Musk's claim that 150-year-olds are collecting social security payments. Maybe Twilight is real and there's a goal at a low rate. So this is a few days ago. U.S. Department of Defense claimed that including people that are 150 years or more than 120 years old were collecting social capital and planning widespread income.

While an audit published in 2020 found that the central social security database known as the Nubadins does include 18.9 million people born before 1920 who do not have death information on record, making them more than 100 years old. If alive, only 44,000 of them were receiving Social Security.

The auditor's ward has spotty death records because these individuals died before the use of electronic death reporting. While the agency's missing, death records may make it more valuable to fraud. The small number of people age 100 or older actually collecting payments suggests it is not a widespread issue.

Julian Stefano. We got a lot. of stuff to cover here today. We just found out a few minutes ago, Tom wasn't following Rob. That's why there was a big fight in the morning, and I made sure that got verified right now, so it scored away. But for those of you guys that have been waiting for two hours, we accidentally posted this Brazilian time, 9 a.m., which is 7 a.m. here.

DOGE Dividend Checks, Trump vs. Zelenskyy, Bolsonaro Charged w/ Bryan Callen | PBD Podcast | Ep. 549
An earlier audit published in 2015 determined that while 6.5 million people in the database were found to be over age 100, only 266 beneficiaries. Okay, so that's important to know that. Of whom records show were likely actually under the age of 112 while the SSA has undergone some of the... So what does it say if you go to the bottom?

So, John, let me ask you this. So while you go and your video all of a sudden pops, when that happens, you're going to be swamped with emails, text messages, people who know you and say, hey, John, oh, my God, I saw this. But you're also going to get a few weird phone calls, right? You're going to get a few weird text messages. And

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
People that are going to say, John, that's actually not what it is. It's actually this. It's actually that. Did you get any credible phone calls from credible people that disagreed with you and said, John, what's actually going on is this. I know what's going on, and it's X, Y, Z because I got a friend there.
PBD Podcast

Did you get any calls from people that disagreed with you and said, you're wrong, that's not what it is?

She's throwing up right now, but this is the mission. And by the way, for some of you that are watching yesterday's Oliver Stone podcast and you're like, the sound sucks. Rap sucks. Everybody. Unfollow.

uh protocol out there at all well listen if you had to give a percentage of two questions one the government knowing what it is that's one and two it being us and nobody else, what percentage would you say the government knows? 80% they know or two. 80% it's us, the U.S. government. It's not anybody else on the outside. And when I say U.S. government, I don't mean our military. It could be CIA.

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
This is amazing. And then I'm like, guys, this place was in the middle of a hurricane storm, whatever you want to call it. The entire outside. Maybe I should show you because we have something going on here. Okay. Rob, do you have a video showing what the outside looked like? I'll send you what happened two hours later, just yesterday in the podcast. A car was underwater. Is that it, Rob?

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
It could be whatever that's us that's here. Where would you put those two?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Yes. One, are the drones operators ours or a foreign country entity that's using them?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Yeah, the fact that it's taken this long, it's mind-boggling that it's taken since November 18th to have known, give or take. That's the date that started being reported on it. By the way, Chase Hughes, a couple other guys are talking about this could be a psyop, this could be a way of distracting everybody to be talking about something like this because there's nothing there.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Okay, right there. Guys, look at that. By the way, we don't have a lake here. That's where we're shooting the podcast is in that building. That's our parking lot. That's our parking lot. While we're doing a podcast, we're getting hit by this. But anyways, it was fun. A lot of good conversation with Oliver and Sean Stone. It was great. But let's get into some of the stories here that we have.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
and they're just kind of saying, hey, hey, hey, keep talking about this, keep talking about this. Why we got to get this big spending bill through? Why we got to make Trump stuff a little bit more difficult? Why we got to pin Trump against Musk? Why we got to do this?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Okay, now you're saying percentages.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
This guy ain't wavering right now. I'm with it. Well, John, appreciate you for your time to get on here with us. I'm glad now we're in contact with each other because, you know, I don't know if, because the way you said it, I thought maybe it sounds like you specialize in rednecks using drones. That's got it. Hell yeah, America, buddy.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But you said 80-plus countries, so there's not a lot of rednecks in some of these other places you're talking about. Rednecks in Greece. We look forward to staying in contact with you and having you back on because I don't think the drone situation is going away anytime soon. I think we'll be dealing with that for many, many years to come. Again, appreciate your time. God bless. Merry Christmas.

Take care. All right, so interesting. What do you think about what John just said?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So a couple months ago, I predicted and I said, guys, I don't know why now that if Trump wins, this is like the last week of October, first week of November. I said, if he wins, they're going to say the new president of the United States is President Elon Musk.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Look, here's the reality of it. We're not going to know. uh on what's going on but the more the biggest thing you need as for someone like me i just want in any situation i'm going through it doesn't matter what it is okay if if it's a war if it's finances if it's valuation of a business if it's a client complaint if it's a lawsuit if it's a mistake someone made

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I want as many testimonies as possible. I want as many angles as possible. Because once you have this person, that person, this person, that person, this person, today a guy sends me a MNEC and he tells me about his business partners. And he says, you know, his business partners are having a challenging time. And I gave him a strategy of what to do.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And they're going to call him a puppet master, and they're going to do a cover of a magazine all over the place, and everyone's going to talk. Just this week, we're going to show you a clip of how many different people are saying that. The likes of Adam Kinzinger. Bernie Sanders just yesterday. You're going to hear them do this just to create a wedge between the two of them.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But I also said to him, I said, you have to know that I have to also assume everything you're telling me is right, the fact that your business partners are being nefarious. What if you're the one that's being like that? I'm not hearing their side of the story. But if what you're telling me is true, here's some feedback for you, right? I think we need intel. This is very helpful.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
By the way, just because we have John on doesn't mean he's 100% right. It doesn't mean it can't be China. It doesn't mean it can't be Iran. It doesn't mean it can't be nothing. It doesn't mean everything is there. You and I get to choose and say, I think it's 42% here, 22% here. And then at the end of the day, we find out.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
No, no, let me... I'm curious. But let me give you an idea on how this works. Okay. If something's going on with our family and it's a real issue, You know what I'm talking about. So, you know what I'm saying? And that's why when Tom does that, it drives me insane. I hate when he does that. Every time. By the way, Rob knows. You know what I want to give Rob a shout out to?

The best. I use it every night. All right, so let me go back to this point. When you're going through family stuff that's taking place, there are certain levels of things that you want your kids to know what's going on.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But some of the things, they're not ready. You may be ready for something to know at 18, but you weren't ready at 14 to know about it.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You may be ready to know at 14, but not at 10. You may be ready at 10, but not at 6. Vice versa, some of the things you have to talk about, right? The only reason the U.S. government doesn't want the public to know if it really is a nuclear warhead or whatever it is, is because the government looks at the American people as kids, and they're not. They're adults. I think the more straight up
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
American people are, the government is with the American people, that trust goes up. The reason, like, when I had President Trump on a podcast, and I'm going to transition to the next stories, but we got a bunch of other things to cover. When I showed him, I said, one of my favorite things you ever did is when you brought Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer into
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
your office, the White House, with 50 cameras, and you said, I'm willing to shut the government down. Guess what? We're back to shutting the government down again. You said, I'm ready to shut the government down, and it was a vlog type. You know what it did? It got us to realize who the a-hole was and who was willing to lean and take responsibility. And you know what?

Go ahead and play this clip, Rob. Look how intense it gets. I love it.

The question is, will it work? Next, billionaire Reid Hoffman. He says the odds of Trump's retaliation is greater than 50%. Trump is willing to pardon New York Mayor Adams. He's considering it. He's also considering raising minimum wage. MSNBC Stephanie Ruhl, I really want to talk about this story, says Trump is more accessible than Biden.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Versus with Biden, what happens? We don't see nothing.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Show it to us, right? The trust goes up. Where we're in there with you. Okay, I got it. I got it. Does that need to be every single thing you do? No, because the enemy's also watching. Exactly. But I think there's 5, 10, 15, 20% of the stuff that you can do for us to see as well to increase the level of trust the American people have in the government.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You know what would be one of the biggest accomplishments in Trump by 2028? Go to the trust in the U.S. government, Rob, percentage. If I was Trump's camp, and I'm doing a business plan for our team, and we said, hey, guys, go to 2028, what five milestones can we reach to call or decide? I have my own list that I would share with the administration, but I'm going to give one of them.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
If the president and his camp, Musk, Vivek, Tulsi, Patel, Bobby, all of these names. I don't want to miss any one of them. Susie, every one of these guys. If by 2028, the trust in the U.S. government suddenly goes up to 45%, that may be one of the biggest victories on their top five. Because what the people said is they're not saying they trust the U.S. government.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
What they're saying is we trust today's administration. They're not saying they trust the government. They're saying we trust you today. Not we trust you, period, right? That could be one of the biggest victories. And one of the ways he could do it is by doing an open forum vlog style talking where we're kind of seeing what's going on. I want to go to the next story. I want to go to the next story.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I want to go to the next story. So next story I want to get into is... UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect, Luigi Mangione, indicted in New York. Rob, do you have that clip to show? Yes. He's indicted in New York. President Trump finally comments on it, and he says a few things.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
While that's taking place, you got a stunning poll comes out that finds more younger Americans think that CEO assassination was acceptable than those who don't, which is absolutely insane to think about this poll. A poll by Emerson College revealed that 41%,
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
of Americans ages 18 to 29 viewed the assassination of UnitedHealthcare's CEO as either somewhat or completely acceptable, while 33% deemed it completely unacceptable. I mean, to think about that's what they're saying. This was something that happened. Then on top of that, there's two documentaries that may be able to get done on him, which, by the way, I understand a documentary on him.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Hollywood should do that. We should learn more. And then there's also a defense fund that just surpassed $100,000 as of a couple days ago. I don't even know where it's at right now. Rob, if you can play a couple of these clips that you have, that'd be great.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But jokes, he told her to go F herself, okay, about doing the interview. But at least he picked up. And it's a very good story while she's telling the story. UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione indicted in New York. And while this is going on, Trump comments on it. I kind of like what he said. Luigi Mangione at the same time has a defense fund that surpassed $100,000.

PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And their stunning poll finds that more young Americans think CEO assassination was acceptable than those who don't. And apparently Hollywood is right now working on two documentaries on that. Musk ready to bankroll Farage. Musk is facing conflict with Doge. And Elizabeth Warren said some stuff. We'll give you some thoughts on that. Apparently Musk was worth $400 billion last week.

These are a bunch of people getting tattoos of this guy. Okay. Well, I'm not. Listen. People will do a lot of weird things. Nowadays, tattoos have a different kind of a story and different meaning.

He just got to half a billion. At this pace, he's going to get to a trillion in no time. 14 detained in armed Aurora, Colorado home invasion are likely illegal gang members. We'll talk about that.

Yeah, you know the business model. It's the business model. You know, we have a neighbor that their health insurance program, you know how it works, the insurance that they have, they pay you if you take care of your body more and have fewer visits.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
You understand what just happened? So let's just say your premium is $1,000 a month. Okay. But if you take care of your body, you lose weight, you're in shape, you're doing your physical, things are going better, triglycerides, everything's getting lower, and you have fewer need for the health insurance, they actually lower your premium. That's great.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So they reward you for not needing to go to the doctor. Correct.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So our business model for hospitals sucks. So you know a lot of these companies. The other day I had an executive from a major $250 billion company over at our house. And Tom, you know who I'm talking about. I texted you about her because her CEO, the son, you know what I'm talking about. We're an investor in one of the companies. And she was over at the house.

I said, what percentage? Less than 10%. Wow. I said, and I look at her husband. What does he do? He says, we're actually at a company where we work from home. And we work from the office.

Biden calls for ban on congressional stock trading, calling out Nancy Pelosi. And apparently he didn't even call Nancy Pelosi to see how she was doing after the surgery or the injury that she had.

We've sold over 50% of our real estate assets that we've had because we're not renting it anymore. You know what happens when you have so many different hospitals? You have to use it.

What if somebody right now that's listing their 300 pounds, eating cheesecake, pizza, all this stuff, what if all of a sudden, hey, if your body weight is this and you go do this and you do this physical, your cost of insurance goes this and da-da-da-da-da. Now people have an incentive to do what? Be in shape. You know, military, like you had to run a certain amount of minutes for two miles.
PBD Podcast

PBD Podcast

And, you know, I mean, I said, the biggest thing you have to worry about, between now and November 5th, Trump is enemy of the state number one. November 6th, it will be Elon Musk one, Vance two, then it's Trump. And they said, why? I said, because Musk is going to be around for a while, and Trump is a one-term president. Once he's in, he's in. And then, Elon's going to be around for many years.
PBD Podcast

J.D. Vance is going to be a two-term president, so he's going to be the enemy. I said, but they're going to try to divide. I said, I predicted what I said. I said, they're going to call who the president is.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
They're going to call Elon Musk the president, and they're going to call him puppet master, and they're going to put him on the cover of a magazine with a puppet master whatever. You remember that?

And then go to Bernie Sanders yesterday. Go to Bernie Sanders yesterday, tweet. This is Bernie Sanders' tweet yesterday. Zoom in a little bit. Democrats and Republicans spend months negotiating a bipartisan agreement to fund our program. The richest man on earth, President Elon Musk, doesn't like it. Will Republicans kiss the ring? Billionaires must not be allowed to run our government, right?

This is taking place. Did you send something?

If you can go to my Twitter account, Rob. If you don't mind going to the Twitter account. So on my Twitter profile, you'll see the most recent tweets. Go a little bit.

Play the clip, Rob, if you can. Go ahead and play. He's showing that. Put it on 1.5. I'm the richest man in the world, and I want nothing from you, Trump. But they're going to do the following. And I'm telling you, it could work effectively if it gets under Trump's skin. And here's what it is. 40 laws of power, law number one, Rob. Can you go to 40 laws of power, law number one?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Do you know what law number one is? Never outshine the master. Never outshine the master. Law number one, never outshine the master. For the next four years, nobody can outshine Trump. And I mean nobody. If anything happens... And credit is given. And they spin it. This is how they do it. You ready? Elon Musk is Trump's puppet master. Wow. That's what they're going to do.

By the way, that was Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving, look at the set. Shout out to Kelly. You guys are like, you're predicting all this stuff. And it was a funny thing that he's saying. But I know they have to create that friction between those two. It's not even J.D. right now. They'll do J.D. and you're 3-4. But they have to do Musk right now. You're one, you're two.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
First, they're going to have to find that play between the two, and they're going to have to write it all over the place. Cover of Time magazine. It's got to be a puppet master. We call it a picture of Musk and Trump on the bottom holding him just to poke the bear. That's what they're going to do. And they're going to say, the president of the United States is really Elon Musk. It's not Trump.

Elon Musk is the president of the United States, and he's toying with Trump. Pastor Damas. You can pause it right there. Pastor Damas over here. Tom, the question is, Will it work?

What used to upset you when you were 30 that no longer upsets you at 40? What used to upset you at 40 that no longer upsets you in your 50s? And then here's a follow-up question. What used to upset you in your 20s that whether you're 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, it's still going to upset you? Those two questions will dictate what's going to happen here. So answer it for yourself.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
What used to upset you in your 20s that no longer does in your 40s? I can tell you mine. I have a lot of them. Wait, the 20s that bothered you? Yeah. What used to upset you in your 20s? That things were said about you or, you know, words that no longer upsets you today?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But think about that. But by the way, at one point, how much did it? Oh, of course, because I was really small. Okay, what else? What used to bother you in your 20s that no longer upsets you today? Okay, look. He went somewhere. Did you see that? Yeah. All of us.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Wow. But that still upsets you. I mean, even earlier today, I don't even want to tell him what you told me earlier. Let's not talk about it. But be serious for a second. And folks, I'm asking you, the audience, let's answer this question here.

You probably thought about a friend that was like that. You went somewhere. Maybe your former roommate, you had something like that. Because I had a guy like that as well. His name was Speedy Espinosa. He would leave his underwear on his bed and go for the weekend with this girl in Nashville who – I don't want to say who the... Anyway, so he... You don't want to say what? Just called out Speedy?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
One weekend. One weekend, Speedy. And this guy was five, six years older than me. I mean, I was 18 years old, but I was done. One weekend, I took all his clothes and I dumped... The weekend he was gone, because he would leave his underwear. And I don't even want to tell you what it looked like. He would leave his briefs. I took his clothes and a plastic bag. I dumped it in the trash.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
My room would smell. I can't deal with smell. He came back saying, where are my clothes? I said, in the trash outside. I said, don't ever leave your underwear here before you leave. Wash them before you leave. Every time you leave dirty clothes here, and if I smell anything, it's going to the trash every single time. And he very quickly realized he needs to wash his clothes.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And that drove me effing insane. I'm with you. But let me tell you what it is. You ready? Okay. What hasn't changed? People you do a lot for that betray you. And again, I'm going back to Trump on what he's thinking about. What else? Stuff with my dad. Just don't do it. Anything with my dad, family. Don't go there. He's a very good man, okay?
PBD Podcast

Faith, God, values, principle, America, very protective of that. It's very important. Betrayal, it's always going to be there. Betrayal is always going to be there because I'm always going to do more for you than you're going to do for me. Lack of gratitude will always be unattractive. I had a call yesterday.

And he says, well, you know, you're such and such. We just fired a couple people recently. And one of the guys that we fired, you were there. You were in the building. We brought security. We're like, hey, this is your last day. You're getting fired. Oh, no way. Shell shock, boom. He says, yeah, he called me and told me that he quit. I said, oh, he told you you quit. Yeah, wow. Really?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I told him, I said, you're an idiot. This guy introduced you to all these different people, you quit? So then I sent a message, are you telling people, I said, well, I'm telling them this. Interesting. That's permanent. Because when Tom and I were working together, and over the years, Gerard used to be on a podcast. He sent me the nicest message the other day. Guess what?

PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Yeah, funny as hell, right? But you know what it is? Here's what it is. I will forever remember how you value the relationship. Permanent. We'll remember. It's always going to be here. You publicly undermined everything that happened, no problem. I don't think it'll happen here because I don't think... You see, neither one of the men made the other man.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
So Trump didn't make Musk, and Musk didn't make Trump. So, you know, when it's like that, it's not like... Trump is, you know, Musk wears Trump's gear. Exactly. He wears the Make America Great Again gear. Dark MAGA. You know, and it's like just puts it on. And guess what? Great. Good for you. And so he's given that respect to him. Musk is coming over here to Mar-a-Lago all the time.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Of course there's motives on both sides and there's incentives on both sides. That's very important. The biggest factor internally is I think the person that controls if Trump gets upset about this or not here, believe it or not, is actually not Trump. Guy sends me a message, another guy. We love this guy. He was with us for three years, and he quit. He didn't get fired. He actually quit.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
He came to me and said, Pat, today's my last day. I quit. I'm like, oh, wow. When you're in business for 25 years, you're going to get spooked sometimes, and you're going to do the firing, right? Both 50-50. And... That decision takes place. And I said, so do you have any final thoughts? Because we're done. I mean, you already made your decision. I wish you nothing but the best. Great. Boom.

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Do your thing. Fantastic. He says, what do I do with this relationship long term? I said, I don't dictate what direction this relationship goes long term. You do. I'm going to continue to grow. You dictate where we go long term. And guess what? Been very respectful, all the stuff that we're doing. In this relationship with Trump and Elon, Elon controls what happens, not Trump.

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Elon has to be the first to jump out and defend Trump. Elon has to jump out and call these people out. Elon has to go out after these guys and be the flag carrier because in this role, Elon is the flag carrier.

Trump put his life on the line and took the heat debating when nobody believed in him for the whole four years after 2020 where everybody wrote him out and they're like, this guy's done with... He went through those DOJ. He went to court. He went and did all that stuff. He traveled to New York and mugshot and embarrassing and family and wife's drawn. He went through those humiliating moments.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Nobody's above this guy. So that's why I'm saying, and the reason why I don't think it'll happen, because I think Elon understands this dynamic. Because Elon has a lot of people that he changed their lives as well. They owe Elon the favor, not the other way around. Many people don't understand this. And the reason why they don't understand is because they think life is only one year.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And only think about, well, I got the other guy to give me $20,000 because I'm doing business right now. Patrick will never find that. We find out everything. And then guess what happens long-term? You sacrifice a role. You don't think your kids are going to need that phone call in 10 years or 20 years or 30 years? You just did it for this one reason? Man, you're short-term thinking.

PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
Elon's not short-term thinking. Elon's long-term thinking. So I don't think it's going to happen because I think Elon's been, all this stuff that they're doing to Trump, I think it's happened to him in business so many times, that Elon is what? He's locked in. My opinion. My opinion. But the person that controls where this relationship goes here... I think it's going to be Ilan.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I think Trump has the right to be upset. I think Trump has the right, if somebody throws him under the bus behind closed doors, I think Trump has the right to be a little bit agitated if any of that stuff happens. He has the right to have that. He's a man. He had all the pressure.

And everyone just needs to stay as united as possible, do the job, and if we do, history books could potentially consider this four years the most monumental four years that took America to the next level.

But everybody will be filtered out. It doesn't take a long time to filter people out. There's a famous quote that I tweeted out two weeks ago. And it was very intentional. It said, when a man with experience meets a man with money, The man with the money leaves with the experience. The man with the experience leaves with the money. Did you hear what I just said?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
When a man with money meets a man with experience. The man with experience leaves with the money. The man with the money leaves with the experience. But every once in a while, you meet somebody that has both money and experience. Never cross a man like that. That's Trump and that's Musk. Never make that mistake. You're a fool if you do so.

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
because they've been around the block and they have the right resources. Keep those people close to you. They're very hard to find. They're a great asset to you and your family.

Rob, do you mind pulling up the clip with MSNBC Stephanie Ruhl says Trump is more accessible than Biden, but jokes he had, he told her to go F herself. By the way, I actually love this.

PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
It makes them think you're not busy. If you answer it a day later, you're training them to think you're so busy that they also work so hard because they'll say, oh, my God, such and such is so busy. So never be accessible, right? This is what the guy is saying. And this other lady, she's up there. She's like, no, I like to be accessible. And they're going back and forth.

Accessible, accessible, accessible. This guy built a massive agency. This guy never built a vice president ever himself, ever. And he's probably more talented than the other guy, was never accessible. The key to accessibility is important. And then you got to protect yourself as well. But you got to be accessible for the people that want to get a hold of you. Guy calls me the other day.

Well, that meeting hasn't happened yet. Right. The two of them meeting. And the part you have to realize is that Trump's background is what? How did he make his money? Real estate. Okay.

Remember this. How do you cause Congress to pay attention? How do you cause certain laws to change? How do you cause certain cities to pay attention?

This is the worst thing ever.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
I said, what's a good replacement? There was another tweet I put before this because I first gave him an opportunity when I asked about Sonos. So I asked about something about Sonos.

Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
And we can only listen to Sonos radio and not our own music. Even our local AV companies can't fix it. Does anyone know how to fix it? Sonos reaches out to me. I give a phone number to call an email. They don't follow up for one week. So then finally I put this next tweet. What's a good replacement to Sonos? We're getting rid of all our Sonos products at our buildings. Their app, new app sucks.

Customer service is lazy, fake at best. Not surprised why their market cap dropped from $5 billion in 2021 to $1.7 billion today. Look at the amount of views it gets. It gets one million.

I don't trust you, right?

So they're kind of going through this. Eventually, the guy calls, talks to Jen. They fix the Sonos system. It's pretty complicated, but the guy was able to help out. And the guy that's helping Jen out says, hey, just to be honest with you, We are not fans of the new update. It's making us have to work twice as hard because it was easier to work before. So even Sonos knows that, right?
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
But guess what? Public pressure got Sonos to pay attention to a couple of these updates and do something about it. When one of Trump's next three to-do lists becomes interest rates... You're going to see Jerome Powell get the kind of pressure he's never gotten from millions of people to lower rates. You'll see. And you know when I predict that will happen? Q2 of next year. Q2.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523

Turn to unregulated site, which don't take user safety seriously and make the internet more dangerous for adults and children.

So look, if you're somebody that's naive and innocent and you believe everything the government tells you, which is what, you know, you're supposed to do that, right? Your teacher tells you that in high school, you know, the government is all good and they do everything but good. Some people want to question it. They're part of this annoying community called, I have questions.

I have some curiosity. Is it real? What's going on? Here's John Ferguson. Before I bring him up, I want to properly introduce him. He's a highly accomplished professional with over 25 years of experience in expanding aerospace, telecommunication, critical infrastructure, and unmanned systems. And as the founder and chairman of Saxon Aerospace, based in Kansas.
PBD Podcast
Fani Willis DISQUALIFIED, President Elon Musk, Luigi Mangione Indicted | PBD Podcast | Ep. 523
He's developed innovative technologies like unmanned aerial vehicles and other things. Former vet Marine. He did recon operations during a desert storm, followed by deep sea diving and additionally spanning global work to 80 plus countries working on fiber optic cables and many other things. So he's got a different perspective that he's given here.

Well, listen, when Joe tweets out your video and he says, this is the realest guy, this is the first thing that I see that I actually believe, and then all of a sudden, hundreds of millions of views, everybody's watching your answer, if you don't mind maybe taking a minute for somebody the audience hasn't seen, give your idea of what you said in the video, and maybe we'll have some follow-up questions.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And I just want to keep it private because of the conversation that we had. And he's here. We're sitting in a hangar having a great conversation together. His house burns down in Malibu.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And Tom does the same thing again he does.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
The guys next door, a lot of the people there whose houses burned down in Malibu, a lot of them had only the fair plan. The fair plan apparently only protects up to $3 million.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So if you got a $20 million house with only a fair plan, That $20 million house is now only getting a $3 million insurance policy to rebuild. That $17 million has to come out of whose pocket? Right there. Look at this. California's Fair Plan insured payments for natural disasters up to what? $3 million for residential policyholders.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
We're singing a song. But Tom has to be the person that everybody listens to the song Tom is singing. This is what we deal with on a daily basis. Folks, you don't witness Tom's bullying behind closed doors.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So imagine you're sitting there saying, where the hell am I going to come up with this other $17 million? You're not. But a guy's going to come to you and say, look, I know you're kind of screwed here. I'll give you $5 million. Wow. And that's exactly what you were talking about. Which, by the way, watch what happened yesterday. Gavin Newsom yesterday tweets out a video from the podcast.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
If you can go to, if you can go, you can go right there. This is Gavin Newsom. And he says this is absolutely false. It's from his account. I signed an executive order to protect residents from predatory land speculators and developers. Here's Vinny. Talking about this in this clip. And look what he did. They had those fact checkers.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I saw that. Community notes. So go a little. We got to give credit to who posted this as well. So Wall Street Apes posted. And in the description, it says California Governor Newsom officially setting the stage for developers to come and buy up the devastated land in L.A. Pacific Palisades. Play the clip if you can, Rob, from the podcast. If you can go and play this clip, go for it. Watch this.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Ego maniac. Seriously.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So Tom and Vinny are talking about this. Now watch this. Go back to my account, Rob. Go back, if you could, to the Twitter. You just go back. Yeah, there you go. Zoom in on that same thing. Zoom in if you could.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
His executive order, after the team looked at it, the executive order he said to not allow people of predatory land speculators and developers for people to come and pick it up is only for three months. Weird. And it mandates property offers that meet market value.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
How long do you think, when we're talking about it, how long do you think it's going to take to clean out the debris alone for homeowners? And then for people to say, I want to sell the house. How often did you say, I want to sell my house? 90 days later, you sell the house. How often have you done that? It doesn't happen like that unless you're like a...
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Peak, peak, peak, peak market where everything's going like this. But in a situation like this, this is going to take six to 12 months. So, yeah, we put an executive order to protect on all the lip service stuff. No, this is just a public political PR stunt. People are being impacted right now directly. And this insurance could be the number one reason why it leads to the California exodus.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
All right, let's get into it. We've got a lot of stuff to cover here with you. As usual, California is getting nastier. And we have some new stories to talk about with California. L.A. insurance giant makes prediction after devastating fire. We'll cover that. L.A. landlords jack up rent by as much as 124% floating price gouging laws during deadly wildfires. That's what's going on there.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And by the way, here's the part. You can sit there and try to spin it all you want. You know how long it's going to take to clean this? I'm having a conversation yesterday. We're having a meeting with the mayor of Fort Lauderdale. We're sitting having a conversation together.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And the amount of people right now that are looking at moving, like cities in Texas, cities in Nevada, places in here, we're already getting people asking that they want to come down here. We're already getting people interested out of leaving. Because how long, Tom? And this could go to any one of you guys here. This goes to everybody. And folks, you're listening to this. Comment, bro.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Rob, can you put a poll? How long do you think it's going to take those areas... to recover from this where it goes back to normal. One to three years, three to five years, five to 10 years, or 10 years plus. Run those numbers. Tom, how long do you think it's gonna take?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And now they're only going to give him – No, I'm saying the Malibu houses on the water that all burned down, most of them burned down. If it's $20 million, you only get $3 million from the Pharaoh.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Well, listen. Here's what it comes down to. How many of those buyers... bought it that have an additional 50, 100 million sitting there. How many people that, like for example, when a person buys a million-dollar house, just make it simplified, bring it to a million-dollar house. If a person buys a million-dollar house, how many people have a million dollars in cash?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Of course. Very few. What percentage do you think? If you buy a million-dollar house... How many people that buy a million-dollar house have a million in cash?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Okay, so then if you look at that, so let's say 15% of people have the cash to buy. That sounds about right. Okay, let's just say 5% to 15%. So now, that's at a million. Go to the $20 million homes in Malibu. What percentage of the people that bought a $20 million home have $20 million in cash?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
It's going to go up to afford those houses. Now, of the 30% that have the money to be able to pay for those houses... How many of them are going to say, yeah, honey, let's make this mistake again. No one in California is going to protect us.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
It's going to be a new person that wants to take the risk. So they're going to sell out a discount. How much is that discount? Depends on how much insurance they had. There's a lot of things that's going to come into play here. But the reality of it is this is not done. 2,500 votes. Most people said it's going to take 5 to 10 years.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Look, 72% of people say it's going to take more than 5 years for this thing to come back up. 72%. It's going to take that long for it to recover. Adam, final thoughts.

Trump inauguration is around the corner on Monday. Here's what to know about guest list, schedule, performance, and more. Michelle Obama skipped Jimmy Carter's funeral. Michelle Obama is also skipping the inauguration. Obviously, Vinny has the most creative speculations on why he thinks, but we'll process why that is and we'll talk about that. GOP tax leaders, U.S.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
But let me tell you what this is.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I got you, bro. I'm trying to understand this. Go ahead. But this is Ricardo Lara. You think he's a liberal or a conservative? Most people that work in the Department of Insurance, Rob, can you look up who this Ricardo Lara is? Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara, and see who appointed him, okay? Ricardo Lara, Insurance Commissioner, who appointed him?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Okay, he ran for Senate as a Democrat in 2012, 2019. Okay, he served as California Senate. Okay, so guess what? Here's a Democrat that is forced to deregulate This is a form of deregulation. Because think about it. Pre-1929, people who sold stocks didn't have Series 7s. You're just like, I want to sell stock. No, there was no licensing.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Licensing only came after all the people got caught manipulating the stock market, the big crash, and then FDR goes to Joseph Kennedy, brings him in to start SEC. SEC gets started. Then they start saying we need fingerprints because you're handling people's money. Then does Syria 7 take this test, take that test.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Then investment, you know, all these 1934, all this 1933, that's when all this stuff gets started, right? So this is a form of... deregulating to accelerate. It's almost a contradiction for them. They don't know they're doing this. They're deregulating. They're lowering regulations.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
They're lowering the barrier of entry of doing something like this because their over-regulation has limited the amount of people they need as adjusters to come and help them out. You understand what I'm saying? In your mind, what you're saying is they're lowering standards to get anybody to come in. Both could be true. But to them, it's a form of deregulation. Tom, would you agree?

small business could pay more tax than small businesses do in China if Trump cut expires. Small business optimism surges to six-year high based on Trump's policies.

Okay, what do I need to do right now to sell? What license do I need to do Facebook ads for your company of $10 million a year?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So why not? But that's the point. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? It's a good thing. I see what you're saying. So do you necessarily need a license to sell insurance in some places? Maybe, maybe not. Driving cars. Is it good that we're giving people?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So you see how this works? I mean, I wouldn't know anything about that, but okay. But the point is in some area it does, in some area it doesn't. When you're dealing with people's finances, it's probably a good idea for you to go out there and learn some of the rules and regulations and stuff and learn. The continuing education is actually a very good thing that they're doing.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
It's needed, trust me, because we had a lot of headaches with that with some people. But going back to you, Tom, form of deregulation.

The carriers are screaming. Yeah. Do you think so, Pat? We're on the same page, but you're asking a very— Very good question. At a time like this, I think they're actually making the right choice. They have to do this right now. At a time like this, they're making the right choice.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
The good thing with insurance, here's a good thing with insurance, specifically life insurance. Not a lot of other stuff. I've been in insurance for 25 years. I can tell you how many times the death benefit wasn't paid out. And each time the death benefit wasn't paid out,
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
there was something to do with the beneficiary that they had somebody else pee for them, that that somebody else do the blood for them, that there was some kind of first two years in contestability clause where something happened. I guarantee you it's very few. But it's very few.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Now, when it comes on to auto insurance. Other stuff, those guys will do anything and everything they can to not pay out. So many people have bad experience of only getting $3,000 on a car being totaled. It's like, what are you talking about? It's $22,000. What am I going to do with $3,000? It's very different with life than auto than health than homeowners.

So check this out. This is kind of going still with L.A. I want to get to the story here. L.A. fires causing landlords to jack up rent as much as 128% and flouting price gouging laws during deadly wildfires. L.A. landlords are illegally raising rents above the 10% limit imposed during the state of emergency declared by Governor Newsom after wildfires destroyed L.A.

with Samira Tapia finding nearly 100 listings out of 400 surveyed that violated the price cap. In one case, a North Hollywood rental rose by $800 overnight to $5,700.

Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Yeah. So, so a part of me with, with this rate hikes that are taking place, there's, there's words you can say to them on what they're doing. Um, And, you know, but at the same time, in my opinion, I want them to do it.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Do you know why I want them to do it? I want them to be able to do it because you'll learn about, you know, you'll learn about what they're like.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Yeah, you want to learn to say that this is what they're doing now, right? And, you know, this is an opportunity. Remember the guy, the mattress Houston guy, what's his guy's name? Mattress Mac. Mattress Mac, right? The Super Bowl guy. Hurricane hits. Mattress Mac. Jim. What does he say? He opens it up. And he helps people out. Mattress Mac. This guy is loved in his city. Mattress Mac.

You'll learn about these types of moments. But at the same time, when you're looking at what's going on right now with California, and businesses are doing that, what else do you think is going to happen?

They're doing a great job. Yeah, Bill Burr saying that. TikTok responds to rumors China wants to ask Musk to buy the platform Pure Fiction. TikTok faces a ban Sunday. Today is Thursday in three days.

So when this happens, the market goes higher. The demand goes higher. Whether that's a good thing or not, it's what the hand you're dealt. It's the hand you're dealt. You're dealt that hand.

So do you think it's a good idea to have women on the front lines? You're a former vet. You're Air Force. You were Airman of the Year out of all the soldiers in Air Force the year you got it. Do you think women should be on the front line?

PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
But, Tom, I got a question for you. And specifically, I'm coming to you with this one here. I want you to watch this clip by Senator Gary Peters, Democrat, Michigan. I don't know who he is. But by the way, I actually think it's a very good question he's asking. Because for me, I'm trying to hear questions.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Like, you know how it's kind of like, oh, there's nothing on my side that the guy is going to be. When you're choosing a candidate, you ought to be wanting them to be asking anybody tough questions, right? No matter who it is. This is a very fair question to ask Rob if you can play this clip. And on the time, I got a question for you. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
No, no, Rob, this isn't a clip. No, he's talking about the CEOs. No, no, you can pause it right there. This isn't a clip. But the guy asks a question, and he says... Pete, you have not represented more than 100 employees max in your career. And 100 employees, it's not employees. I think it's troops in a military day. How do you go from 100, right?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And Rob, if you want to listen to it yourself first and then see if this is the one, how do you go from 100 to all of a sudden now leading something like this that's this massive? So here's the question. Do you think... Which of the two matters most? A Trump who's never been in the military, he's never served in the military, but he's the commander in chief.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
If this thing is true.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
That phrase, commander-in-chief, is a military phrase. President, maybe it's a political phrase, but commander-in-chief is a military phrase. What's more important to you? A person who's never served to be the commander-in-chief.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
This person's never served, but they've ran a big organization, very successful in business, very successful in entertainment, and now they're going to come and run the country, which he's done now twice. Or somebody who has served, But no bigger than $100,000 to now get the responsibility of nearly a trillion-dollar budget and hundreds of thousands of people that he has to manage.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Which one of those two are you more comfortable with and which one of them are you not comfortable with? Maybe you're comfortable with both of them.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I can't wait for this.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And then we got a couple other things on the addendum as well. But before we get into this, maybe even a Diddy story that we got to cover on the Freak Off tapes with the documentaries coming out. So one thing I do like to do here, if you're at Valuetim, we like to make predictions, okay? And we have a lot of fun with predictions. If you watch the podcast, we make predictions.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
We play the game of predictions. So do you think you're pretty good at making predictions? Do you yourself? You're like, I'm very good at making predictions. Well, guess what?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Not many.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
For sure. Yeah. So to me, it's Tom, you were going to say something about this. No, I like what... Vinny's commentary.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
We're playing a game, and it's the first 100 days of Donald Trump as a president, and we're playing this game on vtnews.ai with a leader's bulletin, with a contest, with recognition at the end, with prizes at the end, and here's how it works. Every day, vtnews.ai... is going to post a prediction for you to make on the website, and you go out there and make the predictions yourself.

Yeah. I'm doing exactly what Tom's doing. So, Rob, if you can go up and look at... previous Secretary of Defense. Right now it's a guy named Lloyd Austin. He served. Yeah, he was a four-star general. He was a four-star general. So think about that, a four-star general, right?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So then you had David Norquist, okay, who himself was a 34th United States Deputy Secretary of Defense and National Defense. And then what was his background on what he did? Was he a four-star general? Was he what did he do before, previous to that? Department of Defense, acting Secretary of Defense. I don't know what his background is. If you want to look it up, Tom. David Norquist, okay.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And then you have Chris Miller, right? And then you have Mark Esper, okay.

General Mattis. Well, you go through this and you kind of see a couple things.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And you see somebody who has had high level of managerial leadership opportunities and examples. By the way, nowadays, to be a general is you're essentially a little bit more politician than you were 50 years ago. It's not what a general used to be years ago. So I don't know. I think it is a valid question to be asking. On the executive side, I thought it was a very good question to ask.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And you know what's the great thing about that? He gets to go prove himself to the market. Good. And say, I'm actually going to be a good executive. Great. Let's see what he does. But the reality of it is, if there's anything he's going to be reading up on right now, it's not going to be history of the military. It's going to be more about leadership and executive.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Like, you know, he needs to go read Five Temptations of an Executive by Patrick Lencioni. He needs to go read a lot of Drucker. He needs to go read a lot of... Lincoln on leadership.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
He needs to go read a lot of books on manager. By the way, this one's very interesting. Rob, if you want to play this one here, it's fairly easy, it's fairly short, to the point, and you'll see where he's going with this. Go ahead, Rob. Okay.

So number one, I'm not logged in, but we can start it here right now. So number one, how many former presidents do you think will attend Trump's inauguration? Okay. None, one, two, three, or four.

And if Michelle doesn't show up, it still counts as Obama showing up. So four is everybody shows up. Three is one of them doesn't show up, et cetera, et cetera. Number two, Trump has stated he has 100 executive orders planned for day one. How many executive orders will Trump execute by the end of January 21st? That's a day after inauguration. You have the breakdown on how many he's going to do.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
This is going to sound weird, guys. I've listened to, if I tell you top 10 comedians I've listened to the most, Bill Burr is in my top five of listening to. But I'm not. So you haven't listened to many. I found that Lenny Bruce is Rogan's favorite comedian.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
But what I'm saying to you is I'm not in this world to know. You ask me different sports that I've followed, I could tell you. You ask me every clip of every time Bill Burr was on Conan O'Brien. How many times have I watched each one of the 15 clips? It's 100-plus times. Yeah. Like Hillary Clinton, you know, she dressed like a real estate agent.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
You look at her, you know, I was kind of glad, you know. He came out and when they won, you know, we thought this was such a big thing, you know, the hockey thing when we won. This is like, you know, with the Gibson home run, like the stuff he does is he's very good. And since you're a sports player, it's like saying that Rich Chapman is one of the top 10 basketball players of all time.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Yeah, Philadelphia. Did I watch that thing 100 times? I hope your mother – like the stuff that he does. You're like this guy. However, I'm not having that debate. That's not a priority in my life. And I'm a comedian, Adam, so I'm a different lens. Let me just make my point and let's move on. Because honestly, we've got a few stories I want to get into. This is not that important.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Go to the next one, Rob. Which Trump cabinet-appointed confirmation hearing process will take the longest if they are all confirmed at all? You can pick and choose which one those are. They're right there. Go to the next one, Rob. What will the state of U.S. border security look like at the end of Trump's first week in office? It gives you options on what to do.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I love that he knows the playbook to go out there and say something that nobody else is saying and everybody else reacts. And he gets 100 million views. Good for him.

Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Now... All the other stuff with California, to say that the other people can't say anything, the helicopter, why you go fly the helicopter. What are you talking about? That's the job of the guy that if crisis happens, he's supposed to go out there and save people's lives. Don't take the damn job. What do you mean you go fly the helicopter?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
No, the other people that don't do it, they don't want that job. That's the point. I don't want that job. I don't want to be that person. The other person is taking that job. So, no, I fully disagree completely. On what he's talking about, there are the people that are in it that are being directly impacted, who have the highest moral authority of giving feedback of what happened.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
When you think about the state of California, you had a reservoir called the Santa Ines Reservoir, $117 million. gallons of water in it that's been empty since February of last year due to a hole on the cover because of bird poop. They were worried about that. They couldn't fix that quickly.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
That Michael Schleppenberger that's being on Tucker Carlson is saying, we asked other people that are running other reservoirs saying if the reservoir is empty for a week or two, we panic, we fill it up ASAP. And you mean to tell me as a governor in the state of California that has access to 1300 reservoirs, That's how many reservoirs California has.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Don't you think as a governor of a state that you know the biggest crisis that happens in your state is either earthquakes or fires, generally more fire than earthquakes. Don't you think you would have a chart on the wall to be looking at how your reservoirs are doing, specifically in Palisades?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Your celebrity Hollywood actors that invite you to dinners are the ones that are going to be directly impacted by this, and you have a reservoir that's been empty for almost a year, and you're not watching this? You don't need an MBA or a bachelor's or a master's in water and fire to understand that that's a dumb move. That's dumb.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And that's called horrible leadership by the man running that state. This is why so many people are reaching out to me right now about getting behind somebody for California for a governor and wanting to find ways to get this guy to resign or do a recall. Yesterday, we looked at the... Lieutenant General of the state of California. So if he resigns, his same exact person is going to get in there.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Lieutenant General is this lady called Lena Konalakis. So resigning is actually not the solution. It's recalling and getting somebody else in there. And getting people that are willing to go out there and give a message in California that are able to sell and evangelize and others getting behind it. There's going to be a lot of stuff happening right now in California, folks. Stay tuned.

He's funny as hell. Old clips of his. Okay, TikTok. Tom, I'm coming to you with this one. TikTok responds. To rumors, China wants to ask Musk to buy the platform. Pure fiction. Rob, is that a video clip that we have or is that just a story? Because it says yellow.

PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Very honest answer, okay? Very honest answer on what he's saying there. But let me read this story to you guys, folks, on what's going on here. Because TikTok dismissed rumors, reports by Bloomberg, that Chinese officials were exploring having Elon Musk acquire the U.S. operations to prevent a ban under protecting Americans from a foreign adversary-controlled application app.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
TikTok stated to Fox Business, we can't be expected to comment on pure fiction, is what he said, okay? Then there's another one coming up here. from Forbes talking about the fact, and also Reuters, TikTok preparing for US Sunday shutdown. Sources all tell Reuters TikTok plans to shut it up, shut its app up in US for users on Sunday when a federal ban on the social media app could come into effect.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Unless the Supreme Court moves to block it, the outcome of the shutdown would be different from the mandated by the law. The law would mandate a ban only on new TikTok downloads on Apple and Google Apple stores.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
While existing users could continue to use it for some time under TikTok's plan, people attempting to open the app will see a pop-up message directing them to a website with information about the ban. The sources said requesting anonymity is the matter is not public.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
The company also plans to give users an option to download all their data so that they can take a record for their personal information. They said privately held ByteDance is about 60 percent owned by institutional investors such as BlackRock, General, Atlantic. And while its founders and employees own 20 percent, it has more than 7000 employees in the U.S. town.

Ten, how will inflation compare on the day 100 versus his first day? Eleven, will Trump evoke an executive order in his first 100 days to resume construction on the southern border, the wall that he wanted to build? Twelve, who will receive executive pardons during Trump's first 100 days? Rob, can you open that one up because that's 800 points. And you've got a few of them right there.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
With specific to TikTok... I mean, look, a part of me thinks I hope the ban happens on Sunday. And let me explain to you why. Not for the reasons you think. If it happens on Sunday, here's what it means strategically. How many people will be flipping out and who will be flipping out if TikTok is banned on Sunday? Think about age category and demo. Who will be pissed on Sunday? What age?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
How addicted are they to TikTok? Ridiculous. How important is TikTok to them? How a big part of their lives is TikTok? Huge.

Give me sex. Gender, specifically. Male or female?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Okay, so check this out. So imagine... Nineteenth, who's the president? Donald Trump. Twentieth, who's the president? Donald Trump. So in the history books, if Joe Biden wants to take credit, the fact that Hamas is releasing the hostages and saying, oh, because of me, they're afraid of me. OK, so guess what? You're the one that shut down TikTok. And then Trump will be the one that opens up TikTok.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Who do you think is going to get that? Will it be Biden, January 6th rioters, himself, Fauci, Mayorkas, or none of the above? Go to 13. I've got two more to go. Will an incident that creates a security concern happen during Trump's inauguration, and last but not least, will Trump take executive action against TikTok in his first 100 days?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Imagine that younger generation. They're going to sit there and be like, dude. Listen, this guy at least allows that. So in a strategic standpoint, I think it helps on the Trump side. Just like the same way, you know, Elon said, you know, Twitter, TikTok, it helps Twitter, right? So Biden is over here talking about the fact that hostages is because of him.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And then they came back and said, no, it's not really because of him. Trump's the one that asking him to stop and all this other stuff. I think that's that part of it. The other part is, I think TikTok's going to be around. For the people that are worried about TikTok, they have nothing to worry about. I would like it not to have anything to do with China. Zero. I want nothing to do with them.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I want somebody here to own, and I would like somebody to own it that is not a monopoly. Because... If Zuck, and this is behind closed doors, if you think about how Elon is making this argument to Trump, here's how Elon's making the argument to Trump to allow Elon to own TikTok. You ready? What does Zuck own?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And what did he buy?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Okay.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Is Instagram more comparable to TikTok or Twitter?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
TikTok. And is Facebook more like Twitter or TikTok? Facebook is closer to Twitter.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So guess what? So he's like, dude, he owns Facebook. And he owns Instagram. Well, listen, if I own X, you really want to protect the long term? Let me also on TikTok. It's a good argument. It's actually a good argument for Trump to be like, yeah, well, Zuck owns those two. So it's either break all of them apart.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
and a person can only own one of them to have a monopoly locket in place, or if you're going to allow him to own both, you may as well allow Elon to own TikTok. I think somebody else should own TikTok, if you ask me. I would like to have other people own TikTok, and I would like to have somebody else own Instagram, not have both of them be under Zuck. Just my opinion.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Yeah, I saw that. And I'd like competition. I'd like competition to see who wants to buy it.

House Republicans, Jason Smith, talking about the 2017 tax cut. 20 small business owners will be hit with a 43.4% top tax rate, more than 20 points higher than what business pays in communist China.

Well, the good news is small business owners are happy about the fact that, you know, Trump's getting in there for the policies, which means optimism is higher. And I think that's a good thing. Let's go to the next story. Michelle Obama to skip Trump inauguration. CNN story. So Michelle Obama... First Lady Barack Obama wasn't at Jimmy Carter's funeral when him and Trump were speaking.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
If you're not him, Michelle. When Barack and Trump were speaking, Michelle wasn't sitting there. And now we're hearing about the fact that Michelle Obama is also not going to be at the inauguration. And there's a lot of different theories. Why is she not coming? Michelle Obama will not attend it. breaking with the tradition of former First Ladies participating in the ceremony.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Her office stated, former President Barack Obama has confirmed to attend the 68th inaugural ceremonies. Former First Lady Michelle Obama will not be attending the inauguration without providing further explanation. Michelle Obama has previously expressed animosity towards Trump, accusing him of endangering her family through his rhetoric, reflecting on attending Trump's 2017 inauguration.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
She said, in a 2023 podcast, there were tears, There was that emotion. But then to sit on that stage and watch the opposite of what we represented on display, there was no diversity. There was no color on that stage. There was no reflection of the broader sense of America on that stage. Vinny, I'll come to you first. What do you think is going on here with Michelle Obama? Not attending.

Mark, Mike Zuckerman, CEO of CSAA Insurance Group, highlighted the grave risk to California if homeowner insurance available becomes unavailable due to wildfire, stating, not being able to insure homes in California against these kinds of risks will completely upend the state. CSAA is the third largest insurer in California, continues to write new policies, but declined insurance.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So a couple things. One, remember, Melania didn't attend The invitation that the Bidens gave to go there and Melania didn't go. Trump went. I don't know if you remember that. This was like six weeks ago, five weeks ago. Remember there was a picture of Joe Biden and Trump and they were talking to each other and Jill was there, but Melania didn't go.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
This was five weeks ago, guys. Just type in Joe Biden. Type in Biden invites Trump. Melania skips. To the White House?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
This was five weeks ago, guys, when the meeting took place. And Melania chose not to go. Yeah, there you go.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Melania chose not to go. Melania expected to skip Wednesday's White House meeting.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
I understand. I'm trying to make my point and you're giving commentary.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So Melania Trump expected to skip. So she skipped, which by the way, it's fine. Okay. So now Michelle wants to skip this, totally get it. Melania just had a book come out. Jennifer's reading her book, and she's loving the book. Here's Melania talking about her experience with Michelle Obama when they came in. I've never seen her talk about this stuff, okay?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
She is now openly talking about some of the stories, okay? Go for it, Rob. Play this clip.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
She's saying the fact that they were not helpful. And, again, listen, drama, like what you said, a little bit of what Michelle is doing, and, hey, I'm not going to be there. I think it's going to be totally fine that they're not going to be there. The reality of it is what? Trump won. They're in there.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
to renew 5,500 policies in 2024, okay? Just 1.2% of his total policies due to wildfires. Zuckerman emphasized the necessity of adjusting insurance prices. I'm going to read this one more time, folks. He emphasized the necessity of adjusting insurance prices to match what? The increased wildfire risks. Explaining, this is not a sign that wildfires aren't insurable.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Melania gets to go back in and do whatever she wants to do with the way the White House is going to look. Day one, history books are going to favor Trump's. That's what's going to happen. And that, above anything else, I can't see why it's tough for Michelle to be there fully. I can't see what's going to be tough for her to be there. Vinny, what are your thoughts on this story?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
It is a sign that insurance companies need to be allowed to charge the prices that match the increased risk in order to insure. While CSAA raised its home insurance rates by 6.9% this year, other insurance, such as Allstate and State Farm, have implemented double-digit increases or left the California market in its entirety. Tom.

We're in Hawaii. It's March of 09. It's me, Jen, my dad, and we're there. And I know what happened, what the company I was a part of did to me. And it was unbelievable what happened. And everything was documented, everything that happened. And they eventually had to apologize for it when I flew out to Atlanta. I sent them with 20 people.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
But after they apologized, I wanted to be the CEO of that company and I wanted to eventually run that company. And I felt I would have done a good job to do it. It was important to me to do so. And we're in Hawaii. It's me and another guy named Jeff. Jeff will remember this vividly. They asked me to go to Hawaii. I went. I did not want to go to Hawaii.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
But I went and the guy comes and he asked me to speak. And I said, Scott, respectfully, you don't want me to speak. He says, what do you mean? I said, I'm telling you. I'm telling you as a favor to you. You're the president of the company. You do not want me to speak. I'm not going to speak. I'm here, but I'm not going to speak.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
So don't ask me to speak because it's not going to be something you're going to like. No, what are you talking about? You guys said, I'm telling you, I'm not speaking. So me and Jeff went, told them, and then boom. And the people that were there and know the story, it's probably 25 people that know the story. They know exactly what happened. I showed up and we did our thing.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
And then six months later, we started PHP. And then when they sued us, And they got people to be pinned against me. They pinned them against me by stuff that they said. So there was the lawyers in a room and they're sitting there with everybody else and everybody is throwing me under the bus, right? The people that didn't come with us. One of our guys, his name was Muhammad. Love this guy.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
He was like, Pat, I'm all you. A Muslim guy who I can't give you his last name. I'm not going to give his last name because I don't want to expose him. But he comes and he said, I hate Patrick. He's this, he's that. He goes in there. He records the entire thing.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535

No, no, I move on. When I move on, I move on. And... We never listened to it. Of the people that were in that room with the lawyers, more than half of them came back to our company. Think about it.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
The people that helped them sue, more than half of them came back to the company, and we moved on. Having said that, that's like 100% of what this guy went through on the national stage. This is not social. This is not any of that stuff.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Having said that, remember, one area I'm very consistent when I express myself about the president, and I said this on Pierce the other day, he's in the best flow state I've ever seen him. His level of consciousness right now, it's the highest it's ever been, in my opinion, from what I've seen. I don't know the man. We've only spent probably a few hours together, not a lot.

I have learned over the years that people like to verbally hit below the belt, that's Mark Twain, be self-aware of this, be like the water well, and I've said this before, focus on signal instead of noise, right? I think 2020, the noise got a hold of Trump, period. And this time around, he is the noise. And he's signal.

He was focused on getting the job done. A lot of people, like I talked to some guy the other day, he says, oh, my God, how does it feel? You were one of the top 10 people that helped him get elected with all this stuff. I said, what we did is nothing compared to what he had. 99.9% of him winning is him. Mm-hmm.

You can see that on his face.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
You can see that both Melania and Trump went to the funeral of Jimmy Carter. She was willing to hug Mike Pence's wife, and she never once got up.

to the point that even the other guy got up, the liberal guy, the climate change guy, Al Gore got up, Mike Pence got up, and he even talked to, but notice where she sat.

A phased ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas will begin on Sunday, according to U.S. and Qatar officials, ending 15 months of war that killed over 46,000 Palestinians and displaced most of Gaza's 2.3 million residents. The six-week truce includes Israel's gradual military withdrawal, the release of 33 Israeli hostages, and an exchange for Palestinian prisoners. U.S.

Is that a joke?
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
Yeah. So this is the point that's just kind of funny when you're going through this and taking credit. By the way, you know what this reminds me of? One president, Jimmy Carter. Yeah. But in that moment, it was different. It happened right before President Reagan became president. And President Reagan kind of gave a little bit of credit to Carter.
PBD Podcast
Hegseth Confirmation Hearings, TikTok Sunday Ban, Bill Burr Wildfire Backlash | PBD Podcast | Ep. 535
In this case, he's taking credit saying it's because of us that they did this. And it doesn't seem like it's even happening anyways. But let's go to the last story here.

He's been living in Palisades for 50 years on and off, but he's owned this house for a couple decades, give or take. His insurance premium last year, he gets word that his premium just went from $4,500 to $18,000 a year.

So he doesn't do anything with it. He goes to the fair plan, which the fair plan is $3,200 a year, and they protect your house, I think, up to $3 million. But when he goes to the fair plan to approve for it, they tell him to cut 10 trees on the side of his house. He looks at the cost of cutting the 10 trees. He says, I can't afford to do this. So he decides to not cut the trees.
PBD Podcast

So he doesn't even get a fair plan. Then he goes and does something in California. They say going bare. That means you don't have any insurance. That's what it's called, going bare. I'm going to go bare, and I have nothing. Not fair plan, not homeowner's insurance. He has nothing. And you can do it if you have no mortgage. You can do it if you have no mortgage.

If you can... See if you can look it up. It's one of these pages that we had. And see if it's an 11th story or a 12th story. It's going to be on the 11th story.

And the reason why I'm bringing that up is, you know, the fears of recession. A lot of people menaced me yesterday like, oh, my God, Pat, you know, from your tone, you kind of worry that it may be a recession, all this other stuff. Guys, let me just simplify it for you guys. For those who fear, here's where and when we made our money, okay? When it came down to crisis.

2006, 2007, 2008 was the second biggest time where I was able to really see growth in my business was when the mortgage crash happened in 08. Everybody was afraid. We doubled down. We played offense.

We had technically, by definition, a recession under Biden by having two consecutive back-to-back quarters where the GDP didn't grow. Number two, there's three types of people right now in the marketplace. There's those who hate Trump. There's those who don't follow politics. They're neutral. And then there's those that voted for Trump. Let's go through all three of them.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Those who hate Trump, they are dying for the market to, you know, drop and crash. They're celebrating. They want to see it happen. They want to see this guy fail miserably. They want to see it fail. A guy on CNN, Rob, if you can pull up this clip and find it, is showing the fact that, well, you know, under Biden, the inflation was going up and up and up and everybody was worried.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
And we were not expecting for these numbers to show up. But it looks like inflation has dropped for the first time under Trump. That's the number, right? Can you pull that up, Rob? Watch this clip, guys. CNN is having a hard time reporting good news on inflation. Watch this clip. Go for it.

Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Okay, so you see a number like that. It's like, oh my God, we don't want to report that. Market doesn't want to see that. So the people that don't like Trump, don't be surprised when they are rooting for the failure for him to drop. The people that are in the middle, you're like, look, I don't really care. I'm just a business guy. I'm just trying to make a little bit more money.

The analogy I used is when back in the days, Amazon on quarterly calls, investors used to say, hey, how come you're not paying dividends? Others are paying dividends.

To say they've lost their influence and their sizzle of what the Obamas used to be would be an understatement. You get 17,000 subs. Vinny's vitamin comedy just crossed 300,000 subs. Unusual suspect just crossed 100,000 subs. 17,000 subs. And by the way, I got more thoughts on this. I'll pause. I'll come to you guys from comments.
PBD Podcast

I got three things I want to say that I feel this is the reason why she's doing it. Vinny, your thoughts on this?

Before I get into the sponsorship, let me just tell you something about what happened last night. We're driving back with Dylan last night after soccer, and I'm hearing everybody's giving advice. Mom is sitting here, Jennifer, he's in the back, and Senna's sitting over here.

Well, let me show this. If you can pull up the X and then I'll go to Tom and I'm going to post the question to see where Tom's going to go with this. So here's a couple of things that everybody needs to know about. I tweeted this yesterday. Strange timing, Michelle Obama and Gavin Newsom start a podcast within two weeks of each other. Accidental or intentional? Not sure.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
I give the breakdown of our followers and how many people subscribe. Barack Obama started a podcast in 2021, lasted eight episodes before Spotify and them didn't renew the deal. Michelle and Barack had previously launched a podcast called the Michelle Obama Podcast in 2020. Lasted nine episodes. So far, Newsom's podcast outperformed. And I actually like what Newsom is doing, to be fair with him.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
His podcast, he had Steve Bannon on. He had Charlie Kirk on. He's having a lot of different people on. Stay on that tweet, Rod, if you can go back. So the conclusion is this. What's the reason for them doing this? One, podcasting is hard, and she can't do it. Two, Obama's lost their influence. Three, they're fighting to be the Rogan of the left. Everyone's trying to be the Rogan of the left.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Four, Michelle and Newsom are running for president in 2028, or they're just doing it to have fun. Which one do you think it is, Tom?
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
mostly too can i tell you what i what else is going on let me give you speculation okay again let me tell you i watched newsome's podcast with kirk i actually think newsome has what it takes to do a podcast i i think so too i i think he's got what it takes to do a podcast i think a part about him going back and forth and debate and pushing you want to watch on what he has to say right and
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
And I said to them, I said, one of the most important things in life that you have to learn how to do, it's very hard to do, very, very hard to do. And it takes time to figure this part out because flattery is going to be everywhere. This is what it was. There's going to be people that are going to give you advice on how to get into the top 20% of whatever business you're in.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Michelle, the podcast they make, there's two different types of podcasts. There's a type of podcast that you just want to sit there and talk to the audience one-on-one. And it works for some people. But eventually it's kind of like, look, man, is there anybody else I can, do you want to interview and talk to other people? I kind of want to hear what other people have to say, right?
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
So you watch, well, Rogan's interviewing other people. You're sitting there and then you see panel. What do you think? What do you think? What do you think? You can say whatever you want about The View. Guess what everybody talks about every week? The View. Why? Because here's what she said. Here's what he said. Here's what she said.

So they're bringing, even though you can't stand what they stand for, they bring, you know, what do you call it, Tulsi on. They'll bring and have the fight with Stephen A. They'll bring and put the people on there, Junior and all these guys, and have the conversations with them. Of course, you don't agree with it. Michelle is doing a podcast from a standpoint of, you guys know who I am.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
We're going to do good because I'm Michelle Obama. But let me tell you what I think she's trying to do. And again, pure speculation, folks. I may be fully wrong here. I think she's taking a page out of Jada Pinkett's playbook. Because I think they're getting ready to announce that something's going on in the marriage. And I think this is their way of doing it in a very subtle way.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Because if you're taking shots at him slowly, you're taking shots, you're taking shots, you're taking shots. They're going against in different ways. I'm not sure if there's been an entanglement or not, but I think there may be a possibility of a news coming here soon that could actually get her podcast to blow up. And you know what could get her podcast to blow up?
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
If she announces that they're getting a divorce. That day, they'll get a few hundred thousand subs. And then that's where the controversy will come. So I don't know if she's trying to do the Jada thing. And finding the next thing to... What was her podcast that she was doing? It was called Red Table or something like that. And then Will came on because you know who's going to be a guest very soon.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Obama's going to be a guest very soon. Again, I don't know if that's the case or not. All I'm saying is... I'm getting the vibes that Newsom's doing it because he wants to run for president. Michelle is doing it for other reasons to try to control the narrative. I just don't know if it's landed so far.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
That's not the story.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Buddy, that's not the story, though. That's not the story. Can I finish? But Jada and Will, if you saw the story that was going the other day about the fact that they took a picture after Will was getting a little too friendly with another girl that was on a dancing. I don't know if you follow that story or not. Latin dancing. They've had an open relationship. Oh, for sure.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
So you're saying, like, you can... A lot of people stay married, but they have an open relationship. And it's like, do whatever you want. Just don't publicly embarrass me. So that's not really being married, though. That's contractually being married. According to Tate, that's perfectly fine. Whatever floats your boat. Contractually, they're married.

But the more I see stuff like this, it makes me want to buy five Teslas and just park it in the garage and say, we got some Teslas.

I'm reading what it says on auto pen. Okay, and how it's an auto pen used in present and direct authorization, no longer the legitimacy of the pardon can be questioned. In such case, of course, might scrutinize the validity of the pardon. Okay, so Trump did the auto pen one time in 2018 to sign a proclamation declaring National Fire Prevention Week while he was in California.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
But the point is, one time. Okay, it also explains when it's for high... decisions, not regular decisions, when it's for stuff that is involving extremely high decisions like a pardon, that's got to be a real wet signature. Thank you. Thank you for trying. But I was right.
PBD Podcast

No, no, no. FDR used it to give you credit. FDR used it as an auto pen due to his physical limitations from polio. So that was FDR's. Nixon used auto pen signatures during his presidency, especially for administrative documents. Administrative documents.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
It became a subject of controversy during the Watergate scandal as some questioned the legitimacy of some certain documents. Okay, so there you go. Gerald Ford used an auto pen during his presidency to handle the large volume of paperwork that came from the job.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Jimmy Carter reportedly used an auto pen on occasion to sign documents, although it was not a widely used, discussed issue during his presidency. Reagan used it, especially during his second term, to cope with the demands of the office and volume of paperwork. George H.W. Bush used it for signing a variety of official documents.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
Clinton used the auto pen for routine administrative documents and correspondence. Bush used it for signing documents, especially when traveling or handling a large number of administrators. Barack Obama used an auto pen to sign documents at times, especially when dealing with high volume.
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
And then Trump, although there were some controversies about the extent of its use, Trump's administration reportedly used to sign documents when the president was unavailable or traveling. But the main one they're talking about is the one in 2018. So the question then becomes, if it's used without approval, specifically for something like a pardon, if there's exchange of communication,
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
of there being approval saying, yes, go ahead and sign it, email exchange that is documenting that, guess what? Fine. But if these guys investigated, and they find that others were using that auto pen to pardon people like Fauci, Milley, some of these guys, like pure immunity, and it's, I mean, that's... That's not a good look.

So I ask the question, is it official for a president to use an auto pen? Yes, it is officially accepted for Presidents to use an AutoPen to sign documents. AutoPen signatures are legally valid and are often used for high volume of paperwork. While the signatures of the document may be created by an AutoPen machine, it is typically authorized by the President
PBD Podcast
Canada CAVES To Trump Tariff Threats In Trade War | PBD Podcast | Ep. 561
or designated official in the White House. The use of an auto pen for routine administrative documents such as proclamations, bills, and other paperwork is considered part of the official process as long as it is done with proper authority and oversight. The legality of auto pen signatures has been upheld in past presidency with the understanding that presidents has authorized
PBD Podcast

The signature, however, the use of an auto pen can sometimes raise concerns about transparency or the personal involvement of the president in signing important documents.

Trump, who declared a national emergency on electricity and double tariffs on Canada, steel and aluminum to 50% in response to Ford's initial tariffs, suggested Canada join the U.S. 51st state. Canada should honestly become our 51st state. We would have a northern border problem. We wouldn't. We wouldn't have an ordnance board problem.

He signaled that the Federal Reserve could face an audit by Doge, stating all aspects of the government must be fully transparent and accountable to the people, no exceptions, including, if not especially the Federal Reserve. Musk has long criticized the central bank, calling its workforce bloated and questioning its monetary policy decisions.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Musk previously claimed that the Fed has a crazy high number of employees and criticized its handling of interest rates, stating in August that the Fed needs to drop rates and has been foolish not to have done so already. The Federal Reserve later cut rates in September, followed by additional cuts in November and December.

employees and their operations are primarily funded by the interest they make off the securities they own. OK, so that's kind of what he's talking about, where the additional money is being sent back to the Treasury. But Adam, your thoughts on this story?

I said, it's so funny the fact that they don't mind hiring IRS agents to audit you. They don't mind coming and finding out what you're doing with that $600, what you're doing with that $300. They want that money for sure. They want to audit every one of you because they don't trust you. But in return, we're supposed to trust.

And what if they're independent and taxpayers are not paying for it? What if there's a level of independence? Tom, do you think Doge has the jurisdiction to audit Federal Reserve, or do you think that's a little bit of, because of the way the money is being made, it's got to be a different level of accountability?

No one does not have the jurisdiction. Fairism independently under the U.S. government is all the primary conducted by the GAO, Government Accountability Office, which can audit certain aspects of the Fed, but it is restricted from auditing monetary policy. The Federal Reserve's own Inspector General, IG, who conducts the internal audit, which is pathetic.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
External independent auditors who review the financial statements. Okay, so wouldn't DOGE be an external, well, independent is what it is, of the Federal Reserve. It is independent of the Federal Reserve. If you mean DOGE in reference to something else like, no, I'm talking about the Department of Government Efficiency. Okay, so then who does GAO, the Government Accountability Office, who has that?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Who controls, who does GAO report to? Who does GAO report to? The government accountability, I report directly to Congress. GAO is independent, partisan. It's a Congress agency. It's controlled by the United States. It leads to GAO president 15 years. Okay, so then, by the way, the only reason I'm looking at this is because if you, I want that to happen. I'd like to see it.

But I don't think it can go through Doge is what I'm trying to say. I think there's a part of it where for Elon is – and he's pulling it off right now working with Trump – is, okay – There are certain things as a doer that you're going to get done because you know you control it and you trust your instincts. Right? Trusting your instincts and intuition, most people don't have a high score on that.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Okay? Elon's got a high score in that area. Instincts and intuition. Great. This area, even if it's high instinct, high intuition, you still need Congress. You're going to need to go sell Congress on this idea. And I don't know what percentage you need. I don't know how it's going to work out to be able to get it done.

So if somebody, Vinny, you don't have to be a business expert. You don't need an MBA.

You don't even need to be a business person, salesperson. You can be any average person. If somebody has a 10% tariff on you, but you have zero tariff on them, is that fair? No. What should the right number be? 10 and 10. 10 and 10? Yeah. Okay, cool. If you're going to charge me 10%, I'm going to charge you 10%. Why not? Is there anything wrong about that?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Now, what if I've been doing 10% on your country for the last 30 years and you've done zero on me? To make up the last 30 years of me only putting 10 on you and zero on me, is it fair for you to do 20 on me for a few years to catch up?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
That's something you can debate.

But what I'm saying is that's something you don't need a degree to process that. No, and I don't, yeah.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
So if you read the Trump to impose reciprocal tariffs as a bold move, why is it a bold move? Here are the possible risks and rewards. Go a little bit lower. I don't even understand why they're saying it's a bold move. They're tariffing you. You shouldn't do it to them reciprocal? What do you mean a bold move? I don't even like the word bold in that title. It's a very straight-up move.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
The idea is straightforward. I agree. If another country imposes a tariff on American products, the U.S. will respond by applying the same tariff to that country's goods. Common sense. The strategy is intended to create a fairer trade environment but could also escalate tensions and potential trigger a new tariff war. Why would it? Why would it do that?

DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
The European Union currently places a 10% tariff on cars imported to the U.S., whereas the U.S. only charges 2.5%. Why? Why? I don't know. Give me the 7.5%. So you get to send your BMWs, Mercedes, everything. We've got to pay that 10 points. But we send our Ford. We send our GMC. We send all that. We only do 2.5%. The goal of Trump's reciprocal tariff is to eliminate these imbalances. I agree.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
So I'll be announcing, by the way, what if Europe eliminates the 10% and brings it to zero? Different kind of a conversation. I'll be announcing that next week on reciprocal trade so that we're treated evenly with other countries. We don't want any more or any less, Trump told reporters in Oval Office. Fair, I agree.

The president added that he planned to hold a press conference on the matter as well as a meeting on this show either Monday or Tuesday. Trump's indictment indicated on Friday that reciprocal tariffs might replace the proposed 10 or 20 percent universal import duties. That was a key part of his economic, by the way, which, by the way, people should be happy about that because 10 or 20 means what?
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
It's blanket. Reciprocal is not blanket. You know what reciprocal is? So if I say 20% on everybody, but you don't tariff me, come on. You know what I'm saying? But if I say, what do you impose on me? 15%, 15% back. We're at seven, we're going to 15. No, no, no, no, no. Then lower your 15 to seven, because that's what I'm making. So then maybe BMW cars will be cheaper for us.
PBD Podcast

Go ahead, do it, lower it for us, right? And $80,000 cars now $72,000. We'll take that $7,000, $8,000 savings. So he stated that he was leaning towards implementing mostly, mostly reciprocal tariffs rather than broad import duties. Trump announced on Sunday that he is set to implement a universal 25% tariff on all imports of steel and aluminum. That's all great. Tom, go for it.

Yeah. Rob, can you check to see which countries tariff U.S. the most? Let me give you an idea of what happened yesterday. I'm talking to a business owner who's in a construction space in Western Australia, one of the clients we consult for at Bay David Consulting. You can go to baydavid.com to learn more.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
So I'm talking to this guy, and he says, I'm trying to compete for the other business, but I can't. Because my clients, my competitors that I'm competing with are non-union, and I do union work. And so union work causes my cost and labor to be 20% higher. So I said, okay, so how are you competing with your competitors? What percentage of them are non-union? 90%.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
I said, so does the quality of union when you do the work, is it better than non-union? Not necessarily. So why are you union? And so he says, so let's just say somebody places a job that's $400,000 and you're non-union. I have to charge what? $480,000 because I'm what? Hiring union.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
And union has stipulations if somebody works after eight hours on the ninth hour, 25% increase on the 10th hour, another 25% on the 11th hour, another 25%. So A person making $30 an hour in the 8th hour, for example, is $37.50. On the 10th hour, it's $45. You understand what happens. Eventually, on the 12th hour, you're making $60 an hour. So guys, construction, sometimes we work late.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
What do I do with this? I said, well, as a client... I'm almost always going to go non-union. Why would I pay that additional 20 points? So how do you compete? So what's the point? So what's going to happen on some of these items that tariffs are put on and prices on those items go up, it may cause Americans to buy more Ford. It may cause Americans to buy more GM.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
It may cause Americans to buy more Chrysler. It may even cause some of these guys who are Mercedes and BMW to produce their cars here, and those cars may be cheaper than the ones that they're shipping to us from Europe. It may cause that. But to get to that... It's two years of a lot of pain. And here's my concern. Here's my concern why they have to move so quickly.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Because if they drive tariffs as hard as they do, and within a year and a half, it doesn't produce the results that they want, and the offset of lowering taxes doesn't make Americans happy enough, it will be a bloodbath in two years at midterms. Let me say that one more time. If... We have to do this. I'm convinced we have to go this route, but I think we need four years for this to work.

DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
I don't know if it's going to happen in 18 months. If they go this route and you go like this on the knob with tariffs, right, you have to go like this on taxes and regulation. To offset each other. I don't know if you understand what I'm saying. So if I go tariff like this, taxes like this, do it. You're choking, right? But if I go like this too much, it's also too loosey-goosey.

You spoil everybody's 0% interest rate. So it's a lot of fake success. You don't want that. I think it's got to go like this. You go tariffs higher. You lower taxes regulation. So this place is a little bit loose. Money is being reinvested. IPO market goes a little bit higher. Guys are starting to put $5 billion, $1 billion, half a million dollars into new business being started.

And then all of a sudden, these guys are going to be like, oh, shit, we just threatened the U.S. And they're realizing they don't need us anymore. Hey, we were kidding. We were kidding. We were kidding. But they have to do it fast before midterms. If after midterms they take control, now you've got a gridlock, now nothing's going to get done in the last two years. It's really only a two-year term.

Entry level homes in Miami are going extinct. It's a Wall Street Journal story and I have some thoughts on this. But I'm going to go to Mr. Ellsworth Firth because he's a biz doc. So entry-level homes in Miami are going extinct as single-family prices skyrocket. The number of sales under $500,000 dropping. Ready? 79.6% from 2019 to 2024. Vinny, let me say this to you one more time.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
Folks, please listen to this. The number of houses under the price of $500,000 dropped 80%. There's 80% fewer homes under $500,000 in five years. We're not talking 20 years. Five years, okay? Anna Bozovic, founder of Analytics Miami, explained the market below $500,000 is going extinct. It's kind of shocking. In December 2019, there were 3,518 single-family homes listed under 500,000.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547
But by December of 2024, it went from 3,518 to 641. Shit. Rising home values, high land prices, and construction costs have pushed most of these homes into higher price tiers with the median sale price cutting hitting 675 into December, up 78% from 2019. Rob, is that active listings right now? Yep. Can you go up a little bit to see? Because I can't see the cameras. No, the other way.
PBD Podcast
DOGE Audits The Fed, Pam Bondi vs New York, Tulsi Gabbard Confirmed, JFK Two Shooters? | PBD Podcast | Ep. 547

They're writing this, my feeling, is the fact that they're trying to say, if they get rid of the Department of Education, this is even gonna make it worse. That's what they're trying to claim, right?

No, listen, it's immediate, immediate attack ahead of it rather than staying and keeping it up there. Now, the only reason why you may not attack it immediately, where the everything's going to fall and it could destroy some homes and things like that. But think about it this way.

Let's go to a little bit more of a different kind of a story here. So what do we got here? All right, let's talk about Alex Jones. Judge rejects sale of Alex Jones InfoWars to The Onion in dispute over a bankruptcy auction. So is this kind of like a spoof that Onion wants to buy them to kind of put them out of business and say, hey, we bought them and we used our money and we closed them up?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Is that kind of what they're trying to do, Rob? Is that what this is? Because Onion is a liberal left. Onion is the old school watered down Babylon Bee. Is that fair to say that? Because Onion is what they wish they were Babylon B, but they can't be because they're just not as talented and creative as the guys at Babylon B are. It's not even close, by the way.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520

At the end of a lengthy two-day hearing in a Texas courtroom, Lopez criticized the auction process, flawed. And said the outcome left a lot of money on the table for families of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. You got to scratch and claw and get everything you can from them.

New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
I don't know the data, by the way, so I could be wrong, and Onion's been crushing it. But from what I see, I am willing to bet Babylon B's traffic versus the Onion, they're destroying the Onion. And Onion wishes they could be Babylon B. You know what would be funny with this entire part? This is who, by the way. This is who, Rob, that you just put in. Organic traffic. And this is on what website?

New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Okay. And they showed up as what, 273? Can you do me a favor? Just copy-paste the link. And just open up a new window. So don't close it. So we can compare the two together and put up a new window.

According to this website. Can you do me a favor? Find out when did Babylon Bee start and when did The Onion start? When did Babylon be started?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
That was a newspaper. Babylon be started eight years ago. Okay, when did Onion start?

New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
That's where the University of Wisconsin is. Right, so 88, 2016 is what? 28 years before Babylon Bee started, right? Now, Musk is a big fan of Babylon Bee. So these guys are buying Infowars to try to humiliate what do you call it, Alex. And by the way, is there the dollar amount, Rob, that we have in an article? Because I think the number, when I asked you yesterday, was like $1.75 million.
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
Less than $2 million. And they're giving $700,000 to, what do you call it, to the family and all this other stuff. Can you go to that, Rob, real quick?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
So give or take $2.5 million to buy InfoWars. Correct. This is nothing. Elon has that in his pocket right now. Does the lawsuit come with it?
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
So let's just say somebody wanted to buy InfoWars. And but the company that wanted to buy them, they wanted to buy them minus the liability that comes with it. Right. Meaning I don't want I want to be held harmless of the lawsuit. I want to be held harmless of all the prior debt. Could you do that or no? Out of the bankruptcy, because are you buying it out of bankruptcy or no?

I tell you, I actually think it's a great move on the left to buy InfoWars and dump it. I think it's a great move on the left to buy InfoWars and dump it. Strategically, it's like Elon Musk buying MSNBC. The opposing side will be celebrating that. I think it's a great move to do that. But if it's only for $2.5 million, there's nobody else that's willing to buy InfoWars for $3 million?

It was completely devastating as a young athletic person. According to WAPO, Frenzel Maggioni said that the reason he moved to Hawaii, which is his registered last address, was to get better health. Maggioni posted on his X-ray of his spine on social media with the image appearing to indicate a case of...
PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
spondylolisthesis, okay, a condition caused by vertebrates slipping out of place, which can cause chronic pain. In analysis of the image, neurosurgeon Tyler Cole said that the surgery Mangione received appeared to be suboptimal. and that he would likely have continued to experience nerve pain after the operation. Go a little lower.

That's right. So the lack of good ALIF, along with the subsidence, likely worsened the L5 radicular pain by not restoring disc height and causing neuroforminal compression. You can fuse with continued misalignment as long as disc height is restored and foremen are open. But the overall point is valid. Looks like suboptimal surgery. Okay, so the doctor speaking in the doctor language.

I take care of these kinds of patients all the time, and it is a constant battle with an insurance company trying to get patients what they need to help them deal with their pain. Okay, so simple. Hey, man, you did the surgery. My pain is worse. You and I, we talk about this all the time, right? And you go to the doctor. There's three things we can do. We can do surgery.

PBD Podcast
New Jersey Drones, Luigi Magione's 90-Day Mystery, Alex Jones InfoWars Win | PBD Podcast | Ep. 520
We burn the nerve, and it kind of alleviates some of the pain every year, and then maybe you'll burn it again and burn it again and burn it again. But almost everybody you talk to is, don't do a surgery on your back. 90% of people say, if you don't have to do it, don't do it. All right, is that a reason to kill somebody? Maybe. Let's set that aside. One, speculation. Two, go...

They can't be expanding more east?

Den Respekt, den man ihm geben muss... Zelenskyy war sehr nicht respektvoll, wie er zu ihm gesprochen hat. Ein paar Tage später, was passiert? Er will nicht mehr sprechen. Was ist da passiert? Jeder macht sich hart. Ein anderer Mann hat das auch getan. Adam, was sagst du, als du Zelenskyy mit dem Brief gesehen hast?

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Also wer weiß, was das führen wird. Aber das war in der Rede, die er gegeben hat. Trudeau sagt, die USA wollen die Wirtschaft Kanadas mit Tarifen zerstören. Dieser Kerl ist so lustig. Er spricht darüber, dass sie ihre Produkte nicht kaufen, dass sie nicht nach Florida gehen, all diese seltsamen Dinge. China beurteilt, dass es bereit ist für jeden Art von Krieg. Lass mich es wieder sagen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
China sagt, dass sie bereit sind für jeden Art von Krieg. As Trump's tariffs go into effect, fight till the end. Mexico says it will impose retaliatory tariffs on US with details coming Sunday. Yet they released and gave 28 cartel members to US, something they've never done before. If you're acting so tough, why are you giving those guys up to US?

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ja, ich meine, schau, an diesem Punkt im Spiel, du siehst Pattern. Was ist der Pattern? Tiefheit, die 24 Stunden dauert. Tiefheit, Colombia, dauert 8 Stunden, wegen des Alkohols. Tiefheit bei Panama, keine Sorge, wir werden den Kanal bekommen und wir werden China nicht haben lassen. Tiefheit bei Greenland, wir werden das nicht aufgeben.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Er sagt, schau, hast du gehört, wie wir über Greenland gesprochen haben? Er sagt, ja, und Greenland, die Leute da, gute Leute, tolle Leute. Es wäre sehr gut für die internationale und nationale Sicherheit, für uns, dass Greenland Teil von uns ist. Und einer oder andere Weg wird es schaffen, damit ihr das wisst. Look, you're going to be here because we're going to have this.

And he's going and everybody acts tough. And then you're like, oh shit, the deal is getting done. Oh shit, the deal is getting done. Because this is a different administration he has than ever before. He has a team that has his back 100% and they believe him because they saw how hard he fought. And everybody at some point Jeder, der ihn folgt, weißt du, was jeder zu einem Punkt gesagt hat?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Weißt du, was passiert? Weißt du, warum er der Alpha der Alphas ist? Hier ist warum. Jeder hat zu einem Punkt gesagt, ja, ich könnte das tun. Ja, ich würde das auch tun. Ja, ich könnte das nehmen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I would have ran off. And then in that moment, they're like, this is my leader. I'm not even. That's what happened to everybody. And that's why there's no more explaining himself. Everyone knows he's the alpha amongst alphas. Get in line. It's what we're doing right now. Let's get the job done. And that's exactly what's happening here. Rob, what clip is this here?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
That's the one. Can you play that clip? Watch this one. This was one of my favorites. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Dude, when I saw this, I'm like, good for you. What's happened when people wanted to be cops? They don't want to be cops. Why do you not want to be a cop? I don't feel safe on the street. Guess what? Go kill a cop and see what happens. Go ahead and do it and see what happens. Death penalty. Can you imagine what that is? Mandatory. Yeah, mandatory death penalty to do something like that.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Because maybe, you know, is it tough on the outside, but on the inside you're scared? Which one is it? We'll find that out. Major threat to the American dream, making it harder to buy a home. We'll talk about that. BlackRock strikes a deal. Vielen Dank. They ask him a question. And he says, I'm not one that's a Trump supporter, but I'm for the truth. And let me tell you what the truth is.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
That's wild. I miss that. That's freaking fantastic. By the way, that was at top three on my list when I saw that. I said, great. Because you, Democrats want cops. Andrew Cuomo geht auf Stephen A. und sagt was? Andrew Cuomo, der ehemaliger Mayor von New York, was sagt er ihm? Der ehemalige Governor von New York. Er sagt, er ist gegen die Befundung der Polizei.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Andrew Cuomo bläst die Befundung der Polizei während des Interviews mit Stephen A. trotz eines Anrufens, der die Bewegung legitimiert hat. Er merkt, es hat nicht funktioniert. Ist das es, Rob? Ja. Geh und spiel den Clip.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Rob, can you pause it right there? So, by the way, this is a guy that at one... Do you have the clip of at one point him being supportive of BLM, Rob? I can find it. If you can find it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You know what the point is, though? Here's the point. I'll come to you. The point is this. Even an Andrew Cuomo, who... The mob came and got rid of him on his own side.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Because he wouldn't be locked in. And at one point, everybody thought, this guy's going to run for president and be a president, right? And then you saw the old folks' homes and all that stuff that happened. Boom, and then they come, they got rid of him, right? Now Adams is going through a similar situation.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
At least what he is noticing is realizing what ideas didn't work, and he's willing to go back and shift and adjust. He is willing to say... Wenn wir lernen, dass es nicht funktioniert, müssen wir davon wegkommen, richtig? Es ist so schwer für die anderen, das zu tun. Es ist so schwer für die anderen, das zu tun. Und wenn du keine Polizisten verteidigst, wer will überhaupt ein Polizist sein?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Denk daran, besonders in der NYPD.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I got the clip. I just found the clip. I sent it to Rob. If you can play this clip, Rob, watch this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
They're not. They're not. And we talked about it here on the podcast. That's not right. But here's the part. What is he doing there? Do you really think he doesn't know having more police on the streets is safe? Do you not think he knows that his father was a three-time governor? Do you think he knows it or do you think he's playing politics at the time? He's playing politics.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Guess what he learned? It doesn't work. By the way, if the majority... von den Demokraten, nicht von der Minorität. Die silente Majorität. Wenn diese Leute keine Änderungen machen... Wenn er hier sitzen würde, was würde ich ihm sagen? Ich würde ihm sagen, dass er in der Politik spielt. Ich würde ihm das sagen, wenn er auf einem Podcast ist. Aber zumindest er merkt, dass er da gehen muss.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Wenn er da nicht geht, ist alles fertig. Wenn die Demokraten nicht da gehen, weiß man was? Kein Problem. Weißt du, was nach Lincoln einen zweijährigen Präsidenten gab? So if you're upset, now Dems. Just so you know, stay upset and don't do anything about it. Because you're going to have to deal with this until 2036. If you don't pivot and suck it up and realize your ego is in the way.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And you have to hear what he said next. Democrats answer to Joe Rogan, loses lucrative gig. That's just a funny one, but we'll cover it. Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate, after they left here, it was a mess all over the place. You know, first Ron DeSantis said some words about it. Then Byron Donalds was asked about it. Then the, you know, AG came in. There's just a lot of stuff that's going on.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And every Democrat that's involved in politics should read the book, Ego is the Enemy, because that's in the way right now of what they're doing. Truly, that's what's going on with them. Now, Rob, let's do this. Can you go back to, I'm trying to see what other clips we had. What were your favorite moments? For me it was that death penalty. No funding for LGBTQ.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And you know what he said, which was fantastic. He says, if you're teaching these things in school, federal funding stops. Federal funding stops. I don't know if you have that clip or not. I'll find that. And then he says something so powerful that every parent relates to. You know what it was? Kids are perfect just the way that God created them.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
What a beautiful thing to say. You know who relates to that? What percentage of parents do you think relate to that? Was ist die Anzahl der Eltern, die da sitzen und sagen... Die große, große Mehrheit. Die Zahl ist knapp auf 100 Prozent. 95 Prozent. Die 5 Prozent sind diejenigen, die ihre Kinder verurteilt haben, die es nicht interessiert. Aber die große Mehrheit sagt, das ist genau richtig.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Das ist nicht eine demokratische oder republikanische oder unabhängige Position. Das ist eine evergreen Position. Aber es gab einen Moment, der ein bisschen seltsam war, Rob. Can you pull up the clip that Amy Coney Barrett, that David Harris Jr. posted? I want to know, Rob, what do you think about this? Tom, I want to get your thoughts as well.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
First, go back, Rob, and let's read what he put in the captions, if you don't mind. Do you have it on what he says? Who was the commentator? It's certainly not America. David Harris also said the fact that no wonder she always votes against him. Look at the way Amy Coney Barrett looks at the president On Tuesday night. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Whoa. Go back to it again, Rob. Go back to it again. Look at this. If you read body language, look at that. He's complimentary, Kavanaugh, but look at her. Go to it one more time, Rob, please. And pause right there. Look at that smirk. That's disgust.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Who put her on the bench? He did. What happened? Do you guys know anything about what happened there? Are there actual stories or are we just speculating?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
We'll cover that to kind of see what perspective we have on that. Ben Shapiro launches asking Trump to pardon former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin. And Elon Musk retweeted it. And it was kind of interesting seeing what's going on there. Disney to cut nearly 6% of staff across ABC News. Disney Entertainment Networks. Goldman Sachs set to axe under performance in latest playoffs.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Well, let me read you what I have here. Since 2020, October, when she was sworn in, here's the instance where she has diverged from Trump's preferences. Trump's election challenge, 2020-2021, which in that case, she... Okay, so that's one. Okay. She participated in decisions relating to Trump's tax returns, where the court upheld subpoenas for his documents, which was not in his favor.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So I don't know. And there's other four times that she was for him. Foreign aid funding dispute, March 2025. That's now. New York sentencing appeal, January 2025. That's now. Colorado ballot eligibility case. If you guys remember March 2024, she was not for that. Immunity ruling, June 2024. I don't know. But that look to me was a strange look. And maybe we're reading into it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Maybe there's nothing there, but it seemed kind of weird on how she looked at the president.

Ich weiß es nicht. Also, du weißt nichts. Also, du sagst, dass diese Leute Supreme-Court-Decisionen haben, die sie in der Toilette machen, während sie sitzen und miteinander sprechen. Das ist, was du sagst. Hey, what do you think about the ruling? That's what you're saying.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
That's what I'm trying to say. Alright, Tom. Do you agree with this guy here?

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Do you think there's anything there though? Do you think this is one of your famous nothing burgers? What do you think?

Latest layoffs. And last but not least, LA Wildfire. E-Mail proves that Karen Bass knew critical fire risk before LA Mayor skipped off to Africa.

Okay. So, depending on how things look, if I'm Trump... I'm probably speaking to him to replacing him in 2028. That's very important. Absolutely. And replacing him with a... You got some options. I don't know who you bring. Ted Cruz or whoever you want to bring. Some of the guys that he brings in that he can suggest. But I think that part, he's got to be strategic on where he's at.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And hopefully they'd be willing to work with him. Because Sotomayor is 70. She can still go...
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I would get some guys that their age starts with the number four. That's what I'd be looking for. I'd be looking for some guys early five. That's a radical idea, Pat.

Okay. I'm thinking the last 50 years. 52 years old, Amy Coney Barrett. Amy, okay. Alright, so let's go to the next story here. Rob, so right after, I think yesterday, or right after, it could have been yesterday, President Trump put out a very strong tweet on Truth Social about Hamas, Rob, that I'd like to read here, if you can pull up. There is no holding back.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And Adam, I think you send this in a group text. So, Shalom Hamas means hello and goodbye. You can choose. whose lives you've destroyed. This is your last warning. For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza while you still have a chance. Also to the people of Gaza, a beautiful future awaits, but not if you hold hostages. If you do, you are dead. I think that's very straightforward.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Make a smart decision. Release the hostages now or there will be hell to pay later. Donald J. Trump, President of the United States.
PBD Podcast

But everybody throughout the month gets to communicate together. Here's what we're going to be doing.

He's not gonna drop nukes on Gaza. Not nukes, but how far do you think he'll go with it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
How far will he go with this? If they don't respond, because already it's been two weeks and they haven't done anything. So guess what?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I think they're going to go along with that. Go with that. Go and tell me how to do this delicately.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
How do you do it delicately? Because to me, I think Ghassan Soleimani Es war nicht delikat. Es war, boom, hier ist, was wir tun, richtig? Tot. Tot, richtig? Hier ist, was wir tun. Okay, großartig. Wenn sie gehen und sie attackieren, um zu versuchen, einige dieser Leute zu finden, und sie sind in den Bunkern und es tötet innere Menschen, Die Linke lebt dafür. 1.000 Prozent. Sie lebt dafür.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ist das der Grund, warum er sich so langsam bewegt? Und denken Sie, dass Hamas und diese Leute wissen, dass er keine ungewissenen Menschen töten will, weil diese Videos überall viral werden? Und du wirst Freie Palästina sehen, du weißt, dass Proteste in den Straßen stattfinden und Twitter wird ihre Gedanken verlieren, wenn sie da rausgehen und sagen, dass Präsident Trump so und so ist.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558

Rob just ran a poll, and the poll is, will Donald Trump's message to Hamas lead to the release of all the hostages? 4400 Leute haben vor 9 Minuten gewählt.

Und man kann es nicht immer sagen. Du sagst es einmal, du sagst es zwei Wochen später, du hast eine Reputation, deine Threaten werden von anderen gehört, du nicht.

Und ich weiß nicht, ich meine, ich weiß nicht, ich denke, er ist an einem Punkt gerade, dass etwas passieren kann in den nächsten, wie Tom gesagt hat, Stunden. Ich weiß nicht, weil wenn es länger dauert, kann man niemanden bedrohen, der solid ist und nichts tut. Das war die Kritik von Putin. Putin würde bedrohen, bedrohen, bedrohen, bedrohen. Du bist so wie, du wirst nichts tun.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Nuklear, wir werden nuklear nutzen. Du wirst es nicht tun. Du wirst es nicht tun. Stopp die Bedrohung. Und Trump ist nicht der Typ, den ich denke, er wird seine Bedrohungen unerwartet verhindern. Ich denke, etwas wird passieren. Wir werden sehen. All right, gehen wir zur nächsten Geschichte hier. Wir gehen zur nächsten Geschichte hier. Stephen A. Smith, er ist auf der View.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You know, there's a lot of speculation that could be, you can figure it out, but it's only for those who are members of the club. So, if you want to submit an application to be considered, I look at every single application that comes into my hand. Rob, if we can put the website to go to for it.

So, when you're talking about this, to go to the next topic, were you going to say something on this?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So what you're saying is Stephen A should go watch the movie Lean on Me by Morgan Freeman.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Listen, it's a great movie. Rob, can you do me a favor? Pull up the clip on Andrew Tate and brother Tristan Tate under criminal investigation in Florida, Attorney General. And maybe if you got whatever the clips you got, let's just go through them and let's comment on them. So this is the Attorney General saying what he plans to do with the Tate brothers. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay, so the key sentence there was what? If these guys did. Okay, yeah, if these guys did, and anybody in the world that does that, if they did, but you have to prove that these guys did. Here's what Byron Donalds, because originally, when we had Tate here, we talked about Ron DeSantis, and he was the good word to use.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
There's people that choose the titles for the clips, they said, Andrew Tate destroyed Ron DeSantis, and that was trending all over the place, right? Maybe he did not hold back was a better way of saying it. There was no holding back with Tate on Ron. And then he supported Byron, what Andrew said. But here's what Byron said afterwards about Tate. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay, so, what was the words he said? If the allegations fully investigated, if there's abuse of women, trafficking, none of us are for that, they're not welcome to Florida. A little bit of a strange thing to say, but now I have a bunch of opinions on this. This is who? This is him and Candace, that's right. So, Rob, can you play this clip here? Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You think I don't go to sleep with a phone full of evidence. What does that mean? It's a little strange thing to say right there. Rob, is there any other clips to play on this or no? That's fine to go right here. We'll go to the rest of it.
PBD Podcast

Go to the website vtmerch.com and we are looking forward to seeing you come there with your lighter and with your, what do you call it, cutter. So again, vtmerch.com to get that.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ja, so this is Ron DeSantis post this tweet yesterday or two days ago. Casey Tienoff at Trump International Palm Beach made birdie on the hole. Casey and Trump had no trouble winning the match. So meaning, hey, we're united with Trump. This is very important for DeSantis.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The fact that Trump is okay with him posting this picture tells you another one of those moments that Trump wants to find a way to unify the party and he wants to find a way to unify... Die MAGA-Community und auch die DeSantis-Community. Aber spezifisch zu den Taits, Adam. Du hast einen Poll gemacht. Rob, wenn du den Poll auf Instagram auswählen möchtest, was ist mit den Taits?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I think he beat, is it Bill Clinton's that he broke the record of? He beat everybody. He beat everybody's, but I think Bill Clinton was the second longest one. Now it's him being there, so he has the longest State of the Union speech, which is pretty interesting. He got up there und hat viele Dinge zu sagen darüber.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay. Before we go to the top G, Tom Ellsworth. But here's my thoughts on Tate. So a few things. A few things to go through. If they did. If these guys did XYZ. Yeah. If they did, they did. There's nothing we control over the guests that we have on and people that we talk to. If there's a crime that's done, a crime is done. I have kids.

Rob, was war dein größtes Ausdruck, als du ihn gesehen hast, den Staat der Union zu geben? Was war die Unterschiede, die du mit ihm bemerkt hast, von der Vergangenheit, wie seine Energie war, die Dinge, die er gesprochen hat? Was war dein größtes Ausdruck?

Sie haben meinen Sohn aus einem Fußballcamp geschlagen, Tico.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Und er ist so, Dad, ich sage dir, du weißt, du und ich haben eine Beziehung. Ich mag dich nicht. Er hat meinen Stomach geschlagen. Ich habe ihn in den Gesicht geschlagen. Er sagt, Dad, ich erzähle dir, er weint jetzt. Und er tut das nicht. Ich bin so, Dude, ich habe den Autor zurückgekriegt. Ich habe gesagt, hast du Tape für die Schutz der Kinder? Ich habe bemerkt, an deiner Seite hast du Tape.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Wir haben Tape. Spiel die Tape zurück, ich will sie sehen. Und dann musst du mich zurückrufen. Kein Problem, wir kommen zurück. Sie kommen eine Stunde später. Die Stimme knackt. What happened? Your son is right. He punched him in the stomach first. Then he punched him in the face and dropped him. And the only thing we saw was him being punched and we kicked their son out. We apologized to him.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I said, you don't need to apologize to me. You didn't do anything to my ego. He needs to hear it from you guys. I said, what did you guys do to the other kid? We called the parents. That kid can never come here ever again. We take him there. They apologized to him. He goes in there and trains. Guess what? The tape is there.

If they're guilty, there's nothing even a fan, a supporter, a friend, a relative, a family, anybody can do. It doesn't matter what it is. So let's go to the next one. Allegations fully investigated. Why? Are the allegations in... Florida? Are you investigating for what he's doing in Florida? Okay. Not been here for six years. You want to investigate for what he's doing in Florida? Okay.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Based on what premises? Based on what issues? Based on what evidence? If you do, great. That's your job. Go do it. But if it's because of what they did in Romania, you want to do it here? Do we have an extradition law between US and Romania? I know US and UK have it from 06 and 03. or 07 and 03, but is there anything there with Romania? I don't know what the relationship there is with Romania.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So are you working closely with Romania? Is that what you're doing? Again, the United States and Romania have an extradition treaty. The treaty was signed in Bucharest in 2007. So that's a different treaty. But that's federal though, right? Yeah, but you're right, that's federal. But can they use it so they would need Trump Und Trumps Antwort war, ich weiß nichts darüber. Und was ist das andere?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Verbrechen von Frauen, Verbrechen. Wenn sie von diesem Gesetz verurteilt werden, dann sind sie schuldig. Dann ist das das Gesetz. Also lasst das Gesetz beweisen, dass das geschehen ist. Wenn es geschehen ist, dann ist es geschehen. Und wenn du fragst, bist du nicht willkommen in Florida?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Es ist ein bisschen, und übrigens, Tate hilft sich nicht aus, wenn er sagt, du denkst, ich werde meine Sachen verlassen, du denkst nicht, ich bin ein Pro, du denkst nicht, ich weiß das, mein Telefon. Yeah, that was a little weird. You're poking the bear. Anyways, that's a whole different conversation on that area.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
What do you mean? Look at Trump. That's not the point here. Look, for my lifestyle, Who's my lifestyle more close to? Tate or DeSantis? DeSantis. Way more DeSantis. Tom Tate. Nobody knows about that. Don't do that again, Benny. Aber für mich, wir hatten Anthony Weiner hier. Oh, du denkst, wir haben Anthony Weiner, weil wir unterstützen, was er in seinem Leben gemacht hat? Es ist eine Gespräche.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Und einige Leute wissen es nicht. Wir hatten Tayton zwei andere Tage. Jeder Podcast war fünf Stunden. Weißt du, was wir gefragt haben?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Alles, ja. Das ist wie die 13. Stunde eines Podcasts, den wir zusammen gemacht haben, als er in die USA kam. Weißt du, warum er sich hier komfortabel fühlt und er kommt zum Podcast? Weil es eine Gespräche ist. Es ist sicher. Es ist wie, hey, wo bist du? Was willst du tun? Weißt du, was ich noch gesagt habe? Ich hoffe, er geht auf Macon Kelly. I hope he goes and does Megyn Kelly.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I hope he goes and I hope Ben Shapiro invites him similar to how Newsom invited Charlie Kirk. Can you pull up the Newsom-Charlie Kirk thing? I hope Shapiro sends an invite. Can you imagine if Shapiro... You know what would be the biggest alpha play here? If Shapiro tweets out... und sagt, hey, Tate, seit du in Florida bist, lasst uns ein Podcast zusammen machen.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Nun, Tate kann nicht glauben, dass er da gehen wird, weil, du weißt, Ben ist nahe an DeSantis und er fühlt sich, als würde er ihn aufsetzen, also kann er ein bisschen Sorgen haben. Hier ist was Newsom macht. Newsom und Charlie Kirk. Newsom anruft Charlie Kirk auf seinen Podcast. Hättest du je gewusst, dass er das tun würde? Aber er hat es gemacht. Spiel diesen Clip, Rob. Spiel diesen Clip.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You think his son is woke and weird. By the way, the part I'm trying to say here is you're afraid of a conversation? Listen, say what you say about Newsom. I love the fact that he had Charlie Kirkcon. I can't wait to watch, when is it coming out, but I can't wait to watch the whole thing. I love the fact, is it out? I haven't seen it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The only thing, that's the first clip I've ever seen that Rob just played. I can't wait to see the podcast. So guess what? The Shapiros of the world, the Megyn Kellys of the world, invite him. Invite him and ask the questions. Your questions, whatever they may be. Why don't you have the conversation? See where it goes. Yes, of course. And look, I don't know if he's going to say yes or not.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
They're definitely going to have to have a box of chocolate ready for him.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Great, let's see if it works. If you're lobbying for that, what Trump has shown, patterned with Trump, absolute respect. Absolute loyalty. He's extremely forgiving, as weird as it sounds. Typically bosses are not forgiven. He's very forgiving. He moves on very quickly once you apologize. And then he lets competition decide who's going to be the leading candidate.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And last minute he will endorse whoever is able to do the work to get the support that they deserve. That's his formula. Very simple. That's how capitalists think. You have to forgive. Whenever you're in the sales business, you know what sales business does to you? Let me tell you what's the weirdest thing about sales business.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You cannot make it as a sales leader long term without learning forgiveness. You will not make it. You will not make it. Because your sales guys F up all the time. And they screw up and they say stuff to you and they go through the process. And you're like, we got to move on, man. What did you do? Let's move on. What are you going to do this year? Let's go. I apologize. I F'd up. Okay, great.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Let's move on. That sales and business culture teaches you to learn how to move on. But anyways, thoughts on Tate. That's where we are with that. Now, here's another thing. Ben Shapiro. The same day that Tate is going through all this stuff, guess what Ben Shapiro comes out and says? Ben Shapiro comes out and says, he's asking Trump, Rob, if you got this clip, to pardon, I'll let him say it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
George Floyd was saying he could not breathe. So this happens simultaneously. Elon Musk, Rob. ... Response, I believe. ... He says, something to think about. He tweets this video out to 290 million followers on X and says, this is something to think about. Newsweek says, Chauvin serving a 20, 20 and a half year sentence. Rob, your thoughts on this story?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I don't know about that. That's a little... Well, why would you... Hold on. Let me tell you why, though. Let me tell you why. First of all, just so you know, I had no idea. You didn't show me this before the podcast. I don't know he tweeted this. I don't mind reading the other two. I returned to a two-day Jewish holiday in five countries on fire.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
We all agree with George Floyd, which is why a bad cop is on the arrest. And everyone who defends, look, looting and rioting and targeting the business of cops, okay? You're not stealing that TV to honor George Floyd. Okay, so that's other stuff. Yeah. So let me tell you why I don't think that's the case. And my likelihood of that being the case is less than 10%.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Rob, can you pull up the picture of him and Matt Walsh being at, what do you call it? They were at the State of the Union. Why are they at the State of the Union? Why are they standing next to all those people? They were guests of Donald Trump. Of Donald Trump?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ja, aber sie sind da. Denkst du, dass die Einzelperson weiß, dass sie da sind, weil der Redner da ist? Denkst du, dass sie da sind, weil Trump beurteilt hat, dass diese Leute da sein können? Denkst du, dass Trump okay sein wird, wenn der Redner... Lass uns sagen, dass Speaker Johnson jemanden anruft, der wirklich Trump nicht aufhören kann. Und Trump schaut auf und sieht, dass er da ist.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Er wird sagen, warum hast du ihn anruftet? Du denkst nicht, dass er so delikat ist, so intensiv? Wenn ich Meetings fahre und einer meiner Leute einen Menschen intensiv bringt, dann sage ich, was machst du mit dem, der hier ist? I would catch that. No, he's there because Trump approved him. So Trump's ability to play politics. Remember, who said it?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Van Jones said, let's face it, Trump is the greatest politician of our lifetime. He said this after they lost. If you remember, November 6th is when he said that. So whatever the date was when he said that. So I think Trump is... playing the game very well with everybody. And they're there because Trump wanted them to be there. I don't think that's the case.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I don't think, you know, you can debate the fact that it's not a good idea and it's a terrible timing. You can say the fact that, you know, the Paul brothers have a documentary coming out, have a show coming out, right? It's called Paul Americans or American Pauls or something like that. American Pauls, something like that, a show is coming out. The trailer is sick, right?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
The way they really, it's like, Es ist so ein toller Trailer, dass du ihn sehen möchtest. Und in einem der Clips sagt Logan, dass es nicht darum geht, geliebt zu werden. Es geht nur darum, Aufmerksamkeit zu bekommen. Das ist, was er sagt. Er bekommt viel Aufmerksamkeit. Shapiro bekommt Aufmerksamkeit. Also egal, ob du es oder nicht vertraust, aber zu sagen, dass er Trump und all das schmerzt,
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I don't know it's about Trump loves them. I just think that Trump is playing politics that he knows Shapiro and Netanyahu and that community and Daily Wire. Trump's understanding what he's also doing. Trump is not somebody that doesn't make moves accidentally.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I don't know, but it's within 24 hours.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay, so were you going to say something? No, no, no, I was just listening. So what I would say with this part to me is this, Vinny. Do you think Shapiro is Team Trump or Team DeSantis? DeSantis. No question.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
He's a DeSantis-Conservative. Wait, wait, what are you doing? You're saying no, he's not?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Very cool. Alright, so Rob, let's see this clip. If you have a clip that you can show us. Which one is this?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Based on what he did with Tate, he's a little bit more relevant. But the point, it's a very basic question.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You think Ben Shapiro Would have preferred a DeSantis president or a Trump president?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Buddy, I didn't ask you for a 17-second monologue answer. It wasn't. It was a simple answer. Which one do you think he would have preferred? A Trump or a DeSantis?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So to what Vinny is saying, I understand that there's a percentage of people that may say he's doing this because, hey, disruption or whatever. Fine, let's give that a little bit of credence that that is taking place. Let me give the opposing side to why I don't believe that's the way to go. Trump's the wrong guy to mess with right now. Wrong guy to mess with right now. It could be career ending.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
It could be losing two to four years of momentum. I don't know how Daily Wire's business is doing right now. I don't have any idea. Maybe they're killing it. Maybe they're not. Maybe they used to not be that friendly with Fox, a little bit more friendly with Fox. Maybe they want Fox to buy Daily Wire right now.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Maybe they kind of want to, hey, financially, you know, our investors are kind of pissed off at us because we got to get the returns and you got Brett Cooper and you got this and you got that and you got Candace and you got all this stuff that's happening. Everybody, oh, Candace is going to Valuetainment. That's the person behind closed doors and lawsuits. It's Patrick. Yeah, okay.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
No, I'm friends with Almost everybody from all sides. I'm friends with Cuomo. I'm friends with Candace. I'm friends with a lot of people on many different fronts. Sports, business, politics. I get along with a lot of people. Entertainment. I have a lot of conversations with people I agree and disagree with.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
But to me, you know, they may have some other things behind closed doors that they're trying to kind of figure out of things to get to do. Let me tell you how investors work. The moment EBITDA numbers drop, loans, Tom, you and I have been through this game many, many times.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And you know what happens eventually when you keep going back to investors saying, we need another 200 million, we need another 100 million, we need another 50 million. Und dann sagten sie, vielleicht ist es Zeit, zu verkaufen. Vielleicht ist es Zeit, das zu tun. Ich weiß nicht.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Ich würde nicht überrascht, wenn wir plötzlich News hörten, dass Daily Wire einen weiteren Rund von jemandem erhält, der ein Vertreter von Equity kommt, oder ein Fox-Interest-Report kommt, dass vielleicht Daily Wire versucht, sich ein bisschen näher zu machen, weil sie sich auf die Idee des Foxes öffnen würden, sie kaufen sie, und was ist die Verteilung und all das andere. Ja. I don't know.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
But all I know is right now, Trump carries so much weight that, guess what? It's not about him needing you as much as you needing him today. Trump doesn't need anybody today. He's choosing to build relationships today. Not because he needs them desperately, because he's choosing to. He is probably the most diplomatic I've ever seen him be. I don't know if I've ever seen to be more diplomatic.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I know this sounds kind of weird, because you don't think about diplomacy when you think about Trump. It's the most diplomatic. He said, President Zelenskyy sent a letter wanting to do this, and I have to say this. I appreciate the President's letter. I appreciate the President's letter. Thank you for sending the letter. What? He's going there.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So again, you're right that that thought could be in there, but I think not now, because they have nothing they can do to hurt this guy. They can't.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Why don't you start off with Al Green first? Okay. I've been trying to disrupt. So first they wanted to disrupt.

Aber schau dir das an. Falsche Zeit.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Es ist eine falsche Zeit. Ja, ich stimme. Falsche Zeit. Bad Timing. Bad Timing. Ich denke, ich denke, Q1 2027 ist gute Timing. Q1 2025. Bad Timing. Zwei Jahre mehr. Okay, Tom, ich komme zu dir mit diesem. E-Mails prüfen. Karen Bass, Mayor of L.A. Office knew of critical fire risk before L.A. Mayor skipped off to Africa. Not a good look.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And Nicole Shanahan and a bunch of other guys are getting involved in this one here. So let me read the story. Rob, is that a clip you got there?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Play that clip first. Let's look at that clip. So this is the former L.A. Fire Department chief that got fired by the mayor. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay, so that's not good, right? What else do you have, Rob, outside of that?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
By Nicole Shanahan? Yes. Okay, go for it.

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Oh, guck mal. Es ist fast so, als ob sie das wollen. Sie wollten, dass das passieren würde. Natürlich. Also am Anfang, als sie versucht haben, eine Zerstörung zu schaffen, landeten die Zeichen nicht. Hast du ein Bild der Zeichen, Rob? Wo sie die Bilder der Zeichen halten. Elon Steeles. Ja, Elon Steeles. Was ist Elon Steeles? What is he stealing?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Lass mich dir das fragen. Das ist mein F. Hier ist die Frage. Der Rückruf für Newsom war was? 57-43? Etwas so ein Nummer? Es könnte sogar mehr gewesen sein. Ich denke, es war. Und dann ist es runtergelaufen. Was war es? Percentage-wise? I may be wrong.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I remember it was 64 and then it dropped to like a lower, there you go, 62, 38. Okay, so 62, 38 is what the recall was, but that's when, 21. Mm-hmm. And that's what? Covid, like almost Covid, you know, middle of it. This is after fires. This is L.A. This is legit, legit L.A. taking place.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
That's right. Do you think it's a different recall because it's specific to a city instead of a state?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And then there was another one, Rob, wearing the pink. Can you pull up the pink picture where they're all wearing pink dresses? Yeah, right there. We're pink to support women. Yesterday we voted for men to continue abusing women in sports. Just a very weird opening with Al Green. Rob, maybe show up another clip on what we have. If you can go to whichever one you got.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
By the way, again, it's concentrated, Vinny. That's the difference. She barely, look at that, 54.8 to 45.2. von 89.000 Votern, was eine gute Anzahl von Votern ist, weil es 420 bis 509 ist, aber es ist konzentriert in L.A.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Also war das Problem so mit Newsom, also fühlte nicht jeder die Schmerzen, das Problem ist so für sie, jeder in der Stadt fühlt die Schmerzen, es ist mehr konzentriert und viele Hollywood-Leute sind fertig mit ihr und sie wollen Caruso, also literally Leute wollen Caruso auf der linken Seite. Oh wirklich? Oh ja.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Yeah, we're going to learn more about this. Let's go to the next story here. Trudeau says US wants to collapse Canada's economy with tariffs. Rob, if you got this clip here, you gave a 22-minute message that if you go on CNN's YouTube page, And you see how it performed. Just to kind of put things to say, well, nobody cares what he has to say. Go to CNN's YouTube page.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay, so if you don't mind, just go to their channel and go to the videos. And don't go fully down yet, Rob. Zoom in a little bit so we can look at the view, so the audience can see this. Yeah, there you go, watch this. 36,000 views, right? Just look at the videos. Go a little higher up, because I can't see nothing. 37, 93, 28, keep going. 35, 33, 5200, 126, 346,000 views about dealerships.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
This is a real issue that people are following closely because of what he had to say. Go ahead and play the clip on what he said, Rob. If you got the clip, yeah, go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Just play a couple of highlights and we'll get into it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Pause it right there. Play the clip I just texted you, Rob. So this is the next clip on what he said. And I think this is the clip that's going to get him in trouble. But it's okay. He fell for the trap. If you can play this next clip, this next clip of him. Watch what he says about this is the one. This is the one. Go ahead, Rob. Make it bigger, please. There you go.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So, Vinny, your thoughts on yesterday.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Say what you want to say, Tom. He's an Adam. We got it.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I want to know. Tell me afterwards. But you know what's funny, though? Here's what's funny. Think about... Wer als Weltführer einen schlechteren Resümee hat als er und einen schlechteren Rating, ist der Fakt, dass die Leute mit ihm fertig sind. Und sogar mit dem, konnte Pierre Polivier ihn nicht schlagen. Das ist das Schlechte. Weißt du, warum es nicht schade ist?
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Weil jedes Mal, wenn wir Pierre anrufen, der arrogant, pompöse Team, der einzige Podcast, den er je gemacht hat, ist Jordan Peterson. Also lass mich das rechtfertigen. Du hast Milet gesehen, weil er überall war. Du hast Bicheli gewonnen, er ist überall gegangen. Du hast Trump gewonnen, weil er überall gegangen ist. Du hast Bobby gewonnen, weil er überall gegangen ist.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Du hast Vivek als Superstar gewonnen, weil er überall gegangen ist. Und du wirst nicht verlieren. Und du hast nicht gewonnen. Und ich habe das den Kanadiern gesagt, die ihn lieben. Der Kandidat, den du lieben und lieben möchtest, will nicht arbeiten. Gott verbitte, er muss die Grenze überstehen und mit anderen Grenzen sprechen, um Aufmerksamkeit zu bringen. Gott verbitte, zu viel Reisezeit.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Er muss sein Apfel essen. Er muss sein Apfel essen, weil er sein Apfel in seinem System bekommen muss. Geh nach New York, mach einen verdammten Podcast, wie Jordan Peterson das sagte. Geh zu Joe Rogans Podcast. Geh zu anderen Podcasts und sprich mit Lex. Geh und sprich mit anderen Podcasts. Oder sprich mit Andrew Schultz auf der Straße von dir in New York.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
And you lost to Justin, you couldn't beat him. That's embarrassing. Also das ist auch der Teil, Vinny, wo die Opposition so ehrgeizig und überzeugt ist, dass sie gewinnen, dass sie verlieren. Wie viele Clips haben wir gesehen, von Pierre, die viral gehen? Ein paar. Rob, schreib einfach seinen Namen ein. Ja, bitte. Schreib in YouTube, Rob, und schreib seinen Namen ein, wenn du kannst.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Schreib einfach in YouTube, Pierre Polivier. Es ist sehr einfach zu nennen. P-I-E-R-R-E. Da ist er. Schreib einfach zu diesem. Und dann geh zu Filtern und geh zu Views. Okay? Okay. Go to filters and go to views. Just play what is that one response to questions about Canadian sovereignty. Maybe go to one that has to do with Trudeau. Right there. Play the second one. Watch this.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Okay, Leute, ich bin gerade aus der Kirche. Ich habe ein paar lustige Fakten gelernt. Ich habe gelernt, dass wir als Mittelösterreicher gewohnt sind, große Nase zu haben.

PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
You get the idea. Let's go to another one to see how talented this guy is. Go to this next one. Okay, play this one here, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
So now go all the way to the top. All the way to the top if you could. And just type in podcast next to him. And do me a favor. Eliminate his first name. Just put Paul Levier podcast. And go to filters. And go to views. And let's see what podcast he's done. Zoom in. So Jordan Peterson, two months ago, five million. He needs to do that once every other month.
PBD Podcast
Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
Keep going lower, specific to podcast, specific to podcast, keep going. That's another Jordan Peterson from two years ago. It's the only one he does. Keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower. Another Jordan Peterson. Keep going lower, keep going lower, keep going lower.

Other people are talking about him. Yeah. So guess what? You can be as talented as you want and as strong as you want and you think you've won without earning the right to win. You don't believe in capitalism. You just want it to be handed to you. I'm sorry, Canadians. You need a better candidate that's willing to work their asses off to make Canada great again. And this guy didn't want to work.

I watched him give messages. I'm like, what a great message. Get your ass in front of cameras. Didn't want to do it. Go talk to people. Pierre Polivier campaigned the same exact way as Kamala Harris did. When it comes down to campaigning, not policies, he is Kamala Harris. Pierre, your hero that you guys wanted, does not want to work.

Trump’s Speech STUNS Congress | PBD Podcast | Ep. 558
I hope Canadians see this and send it around and blast him and encourage him to go talk to the biggest podcast in Canada. He's not too good for podcasts in Canada. He's only talking to Jordan Peterson. Go talk to the people. You say you want to be a man of the people? Go be the man of the people. That's what Millay did. That's what others did.

Locked up behind camera, just talking to Jordan Peterson, a mainstream type of people. This is 2025. A 78-year-old man did laps around you. And he went and took it. from the other guys. With all the games they played. You just want to sit there and play easy. Very disappointed. The reason why I'm disappointed is because I love the people of Canada. We have so many great friends in Canada.

Canadians, hold your candidates accountable. There is no such thing as competition that is going to be handed to you in no space. Not business, not politics, not sports, not church, not military, in nothing. What a disappointing of a performance by a candidate to not show up. What a disappointing of a performance. I'm not even Canadian, I shouldn't give a shit.

And I'm like, he should go on that show. Canadians are texting me. Hey, what do you think about this guy? He's great, but he's not working hard enough.

If you remember a few days ago, we're doing a podcast. I read a story from Politico, and I re-say the story, and I say, wait a minute, why would you write the article this way? I remember that. And then I'm like, oh, it's Politico. That was literally... No, it was one of them that I read. I don't know what the story was, Rob. But I read it. I'm like, what kind of a title is that?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
It's kind of a weird title to write that way. And it was political. And then five days later, the story comes out political. I know.

PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
But here's what I would say to you. When you're saying that, to me, everybody gave the Democrats... many years to prove that they were right. And guess what ended up happening? They were wrong. About what? About God knows how many things they were wrong about. By the way, don't ask me. I'm just a regular guy. Don't ask me about how I think about it. You are not just a regular guy.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
But when you look at the data and you see... It's saying that the trust in the Democratic Party is the lowest in 16 years. How did that happen?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Why do you think it is? Let me tell you why I disagree. We're going here. I've got a couple things. Let's stay on USAID, and then I'm going to go to the Democratic Party, 16%, to address what comments you just said. So let's stay on the... Because we have Epstein we've got to get to, we've got the Democratic Party, and we've got to finish up USAID so we can go to the next one. All right.
PBD Podcast

Do you think USAID has had more good or more abuse there? Do you think they've done more good or abuse with the money that they've got? Good. You think more good? What percentage is more good?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
The last time it was this high is when Barack Obama took office, I believe, if I'm doing the math right. Bernie Sanders, Josh Hawley team up on Trump's pledge to slash credit card rates to 10%. So a capitalist conservative teams up with a socialist Democrat, Bernie Sanders. That's interesting. Armory recruitment hits major milestone, but it may not be enough.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
No, I don't agree. That's not it, though. No, this is not about 2016 versus 20. The difference in that argument would be Trump when he went in 2016. He had no clue what he was doing. He knew nothing. He knew not what the bodies were, who to trust, who not to trust. Four years later.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Four years later, he looked at everything. He says, so the strategies I used wasn't effective in the first term. Okay. But this time around, some could say he's done more in his first – three weeks than he did the first year when he was president, what he's doing the first three weeks. Yeah, I agree.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
He's actually doing what he said he was going to do in the first term, but the first time he didn't know where the bodies were. So let's go to the next one with the Democrats, right? Where the story comes up here, Rob, can you tell me what page that is where it says the Democratic Party's trust is at the lowest in 16 years? I think I read it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
One of you guys had that as a story that you wanted to give comments on. Bottom of 11. Bottom of 11. Okay. Thank you, Tom. So It says Democratic Party unfavorable rating hits 16 year high. OK, 16 year high. Let's read this.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And it's my reaction. OK, great. But I'll give you why I think because you said something else. They thought they were going to win. So here we go. A Quinnipiac poll finds the Democratic Party unfavorable rating at 57%, the worst since the poll began, tracking while only 31% of voters view the party favorable, leaving them 26 points underwater.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
Meanwhile, the Republican Party is in a much stronger position with 43% favorable and 45% unfavorable. making them only two points underwater, a 12-point advantage over the Democrats' favorability, and 12 points lower than unfavorability. Trump's numbers are stronger than both parties, with a 46% job approval rating against 43, placing him three points above.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
In real clear politics, poll average, Trump is doing even better at 49.4% approval, 44.8% disapproval, giving him a 4.6% lead. Even Trump's favorability in the RCP average is positive at 48.9% approval and 47. Anyways, we see all these polls. But here's where I go. So would you consider Martina Navratilova conservative? No. Absolutely not.

Original. No, but you're showing respect. You're showing affection. So that's the part. But the reason for that is because he gave me his time. I asked for his time. He gave me his time.

PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
You know, this is a very simple thing. When it's like, hey, if you guys want to stay quiet and you want to defend them, it was similar to what Kyle from Nelk Boys did where he said, hey, are you about the open border? He says, yes, it should be open border. And, you know, Trump, you know, he's going to be kicking people out. This is their country. And what's wrong with that and open borders?
PBD Podcast

They say, man, we're so glad you feel this way. We have 20 illegal immigrants on the bus right there that we would like to bring into your house since you agreed. No, no, they can't come in. No, no, you agreed because let them come into your house. And we think this is a great idea. So they got caught, Vinny. That's the challenge. They got caught knowing they don't want it.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
So now, to me, there's a part of it where it's kind of like, okay, go visualize U.S. has a whatever you want to call it. What do you call that land if we take it over?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
We occupy Gaza. Let's just see. Guys, this is spitballing, guys. Don't jump to conclusions. Let's build it into Dubai. Do we have the money to do it? Sure. Is the guy a real estate guy that can do it? Sure. Did Jared Kushner talk about how beautiful the water is?
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
But then you build that, they come back, they don't know how to handle that. They don't know. It's like a lottery winner. What percentage of lottery winners after they win become drug addicts, destroyed, divorced? Your money, the identity is not there. It destroys life. So if you do and they don't come back, that's the only way it'll work.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
But then if you do and they don't come back, are you kidding me? The stuff you're going to have to react to? Is this a top... Five issues? Is that top ten issues? I don't know. However, what I love about what he did is the following. Here's what I love about what Trump did. You know, Netanyahu, and especially him, his mindset, when you're that smart, you think you can outsmart everybody.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And it's kind of like, oh, he's on our side and he's this, he's that, he's this. I don't think he's on Netanyahu's side. I think Trump is on the Israeli people's side. I think Trump is on Israel as a nation's side. I don't think Trump's on the political gamification, power brokers behind closed doors side. I don't think he's on that side.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
And the best part about being a great general and a leader is you need two things, and it's so hard to balance. You need an element of being very predictable. You need an element of being very unpredictable. As a parent, it's great as well. You also need to be like this as a husband. You need to be predictable. Your kids need to see you there. Okay, I'm there. Boom. Hey, boom. I'm here.
PBD Podcast
Trump Gaza, USAID Waste EXPOSED, FCC Investigates George Soros w/ Chris Cuomo | PBD Podcast | Ep. 545
This is what's going on. This is food, schedule, reading, this. They need an element of predictable. But then kids sometimes get so comfortable with daddy, they're like, oh, boom. Oh, shit. Oh, he's still in there. No matter how much I love you and I kiss you, that guy's still in here. It's like, oh, okay. So every 90 days this needs to be seen a little bit, right?

You got to love how he makes everybody uneasy to realize, hey, man. I like you. We have a relationship. But you're in America. It's America first. And that's the most beautiful thing that I like seeing on how that is managed. If he stays like that, he's going to win people like me over every single day by making them feel uncomfortable. And that's the right thing to do.

In fiscal 2024, but Daniel Driscoll, Trump's nominee of Army Secretary, warned that it's not enough. By the way, that's under Biden if they're saying 2024. It's not enough.

And I truly want to look at you and look at it from the part of the best to say capable, great communicator, temperament is solid. You go through it. I want to see all the good with you.

Anybody that places an order with these RFID wallets, you're going to get a leather keychain added to it with the Valuetainment logo design on it. Again, you support the brand. You follow what we do.

Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Go place your order. Carry your wallet with this RFID wallet protector. Future looks bright. Okay. All right. So let's get right into it. Sam, question for you. From the last time you were here, I think it was two years ago, that it was, give or take, two years ago. At the time, it was probably a terrible season for Trump, I think we can say. Trump wasn't having a lot of victories.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Trump was at a very low. Republicans were not convinced that he could go. Republicans were thinking it's probably going to be DeSantis or it's going to be... Somebody else, there was a bit of a split in the Republican Party and the MAGA. Look, I don't know. Even when he opened up his announcement that he's running at Mar-a-Lago, there was not a lot of people there.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Let him say that and respond to it, okay? So, for example, where are we at right now? What state?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Okay. Can you tell me why, out of all the 50 states in America in 2024 that voted for president, why did 50 for 50 state become more Republican?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Can you tell me why, out of 50 states that voted for president in 2024, can you tell me why the two states that lost the most people, the only two states in America that lost a trillion dollars of money under management that left their states to another state like Nevada, Texas, and Florida, can you tell me why those two states? Imagine.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
New York and California during COVID lost a trillion dollars of wealth that left to other states. And even after all those people that left, the two states that became more Republican than they were before in 2020 were New York and Texas. Can you tell me why people come to Texas? Why do people go to Nevada? Why do people go to Florida? Why do you think it is?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Is it because maybe they don't have state taxes? Why do you think Arthur Lafferty is in Tennessee? Why do you think Musk is in Texas? Why do you think Rogan went to Texas? Why do you think California is losing so many jobs?

It's evade taxes. Whoa. But guys, Sam, respectfully, I just figured out who you are. I'm telling you, I just figured out who you are. Deep down inside of you, you are driven by so much power, control, a deep-rooted feeling, matching the qualities of a communist that wants to tell you what to do, and you think you know what's best for others, and if it isn't your way, everybody else is wrong.

The way you are, the way you feel, your first answer was a tax evader. That's how you view them. You don't view them as an asset to the state. You see them as criminals.

Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
That was in 2021.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Do you think any of it was with – again, so those are the main two issues. You don't think anything else. So you mainly think it was inflation, and your second point was –
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Okay. So you think Democrats are better at helping wealth inequality or Republicans?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Tell me, due to what policy?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
But there's six percent of workers work from home. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Here's the other question for you. So Trump's close up the border, right, where we are not getting like this. Numbers have dropped dramatically.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Yeah, he did it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
I'd like to do. I'd like to get through some stories, but I just want to close the knot here and move on because we're not going to make any progress here.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Rob, if you just want to show up graph on immigration from 2021, 22, 22, is that the chart you want to see? What do you want to see?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
No, no. Okay. Rob, do me a favor. Find the chart on immediately when Trump comes in, what happens to illegal immigration in America. While you're doing that, here's a question for you. Ten million illegal immigrants came through the border in four years under Biden. Way more.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
What I'm asking is those four years. How many do we have during those four years? That came through that we have according to credible sources. What's the number you hear?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
No, that came through illegally during those four years.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Let's say 10 million. Tom Holland said 10 million. Let's say it's 10 million, but give or take 2 million. Let's just say it's 10 million, the number, okay? Those 10 million people that are coming here, are they rich?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Are poor, right? Okay, that they're coming here. Who does that benefit? They're going to need jobs, right? Right. And what are they willing to work for?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Oh, so let me get this straight. So who do they benefit? Do they benefit larger corporations that get cheap labor?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Let them come to the border.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
So then if that's the case, you know what that validates? Joe Biden and the Democratic policies are better for the billionaires than Trump's are because they brought in cheap labor. And that cheap labor helps who? Helps the rich.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
And by the way, those 10 million people that came here illegally, give or take.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Who do those 10 million people take jobs away from? Who do they take jobs away from?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Who do those people take jobs away from?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Perfect. I love what you just said. You think they don't take jobs away from anybody. Perfect. So if we go and we look at...
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
When China started trading, let me make the point, when China came through and was able to bring labor to us, 1971, it was called the Ping Pong Agreement that they had, where we can send labor there, and labor at the time was $0.08 to $0.20 an hour, where for us minimum wage was $1.60.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Then in 2001, when the Clinton policies helped China join the World Trade Organization, and at the time, minimum wage in China was $0.20 to $0.50, depending on different regions, and for us it was $5.15. We lost 6 million manufacturing jobs, give or take the next seven years. Michigan, you got Indiana, you got all these other places. Where did those jobs go to? Who did they replace?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Who lost those jobs? What happened to Detroit?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
That's right. So what do you think these 10 million people that come here, who are they going to take jobs away from? Americans who are here legally. Those jobs are going to go to somebody that's cheap labor.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
I'm specifically talking about the last four years. So when you're saying labor is not going to be taken from people in America, that's the credibility you lose. That's where people in – Rob, can you play the clip with Stephen A. Smith, who has been a staunch supporter of the Democratic Party for decades – And now Stephen A. Smith is being called as a member of MAGA.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
You know, Rob, we can't play the whole thing. Can you go to the main part? Do you know the main part or no?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
OK, let's see what he says, Rob. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Rob, if you want to pause that. Sam, what happened? What happened to the Democratic Party?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
So do you know what happens when a guy like Stephen A. Smith, he said he's always voted left when it comes on to presidential candidates that he has. So he's not a guy that voted for Trump, right? When a guy like him comes out and he says, what the hell is going on with the Democratic Party?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
You must not follow what he says because he has said that nonstop the last two months, three months.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
You should. He's actually very good. He's reasonable. It would be good for you to watch. I like his approach.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
No, I am America first. I'm America first. I voted for Trump in 2016. I voted for him 2020. In 2022, when people were leaving to the DeSantis camp, I stayed on the Trump camp. I've never been off that camp. He's the right guy for America, and I've been a registered independent now for about 17 years.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
No, no, stay on this topic here with Stephen A. What is the topic?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
What do you think about Stephen A., what he's been talking about lately with the Democratic Party?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Maybe it's because... Come on, Sam.
PBD Podcast

You become more liberal over the last 20 years. You become more of a leftist and progressive. You got it. You've got to be more malleable.
PBD Podcast

And all I'm saying here before, look, I'm going to go to the audience. Audience, we're coming to you here in a second to go through some of the stories here as well. Why are we going to talk about tariffs? We're going to talk about whatever stories we go through. But the one thing we did learn here with you is America grew up the last four years.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
America grew up the last four years. Many Democrats grew up. Every state became more Republican because of the horrible policies on the left. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

How do you feel about reciprocal tariffs?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Minimum, but in other places, Vietnam, China. Let me ask a simple question. The whole thing Adam just said, it could have been simplified to we have around a trillion dollars of trade deficits. Would you like to fix that?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Do you think we're helping other countries' economy improve? Don't you think we have the leverage to ask more from them?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Have you ever negotiated a deal with anybody?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
You do. And are you a decent negotiator? Are you a bad negotiator? Are you a horrible negotiator? What would you put yourself as a negotiator?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Okay. Do you try to find a way to negotiate where both sides win, like a fair negotiation? Okay. So this is Newsweek. It's a, you know, newspaper and outlet that's on the left. But, Rob, if you can go all the way to the top, okay, this is a Newsweek podcast. So full list of countries of reciprocal tariffs. This is from today, I believe, if I'm not mistaken.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
It was updated today. Okay. Go a little bit low, Rob, if you could. So let's just kind of go. No, no. Let's just start from the top and see what it says. So it talks about the Liberation Day. Great. Got it. White matters. Tariffs remain in place until U.S. narrows a 1.2 trade imbalance recorded last year. That means we're making others. $1.2 trillion more than we're making. That's the imbalance.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Okay, so this is Newsweek. The president said there was a baseline.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
So it would make sense. Okay, so if that's the argument, continue. Now then, the next thing would be, hey, charge me the same thing I'm buying from you as you're buying from me. Let's keep that number the same number. Don't overcharge me for it. That is not a tough request that we're making. Go a little bit lower, Rob. Keep going. So the presidents are based on tariffs of 10% of all imports.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Okay, great. According to a chart, Trump held 34% on Chinese imports, 20% on goods, European goods. That'll come up when we go a little bit lower. That's the picture he's talking about. Keep going lower, Rob. So it's ultimately going to be 54 plus another 10 on China. Until we become reciprocal. Yes, the U.S.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
had an overall trade deficit of 918 in 2024, with the largest gaps coming from China 295, EU 235, Mexico 172, Vietnam 123. That's the numbers that we have there. Then Cambodia topped out of the chart at 49% tariffs, followed by Madagascar, 47%. Sri Lanka, 44%. Vietnam, 46%. If these were the two countries you said they don't have people there, I think they've got people there.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
So if we go a little bit lower, keep going, keep going, keep going. Here's a full list from Newsweek. China, tariffs charged to the U.S., 67%. Us to them, 34%. EU, 39.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Newsweek can fact check this.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
If not, that's Newsweek. You don't believe in fake news. The President of the United States just held up the thing. You believe in real news. So Taiwan, 64-32. Japan, 46-24. India, 52-26. Who the hell negotiated? Look at, by the way, each one of them is almost 2x. 26 times 2 is 52. 25 times 2 is 50. 36 times 2 is 72. 31 times 2 is 62, but they did 61. 32 times 2 is 64. Malaysia, 24, 47.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
10, 10. UK, we're the same. So South Africa, 30, 60. Brazil, 10, 10. Bangladesh, 37, 74. 2X. If these numbers are true, Sam, let's say somebody on the left, okay, fact checks this, and this is someone that's a person you respect. If these numbers are accurate, what do you say then?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570

PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
I actually want to know this here. Rob, you can ask Grok to fact-check it. You can go under Charlie Kirk and just type in, Grok, is this accurate, these numbers? You can go to ChadGBT, that's ran by Sam Altman, who is an enemy of Musk, and see what that one says. You can fact-check both of them. This is all I want to ask you to see what's your credibility with being able to reason.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
But you're rich too, Sam. Oh, no, I am rich as well. You're rich too. Okay. We got a lot of stories to talk about. Sam is obviously a diehard fan of Elon Musk. He wants to give some more praise to him today. We'll talk a little bit about him. We'll talk about terrorists with Liberation Day. One of the stories CNBC hosts hits Trump with insult. He'll hate amid tanking stock market.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
If those are correct, that they are charging us more taxes, than we are, what do you think is the right thing to happen, if those numbers are correct?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
government intervention. Do you think it's more that they're not fighting or do you think that their policies are simply bad policies and they're not landing?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
You're willing to allow the other person to tax you more for product you're buying than you're doing it to them? Who needs who more?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Reciprocal tariff is simple. It's saying if you charge me an additional $30, let's match it. I'll do $30 as well.

My question is, if that's accurate, If those numbers are accurate, that we're being charged more.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
If those are true, okay, on them charging us more, Would you sit there and support?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Do you think it's fair for us to pay twice as much as we're charging them? Do you think that's fair?
PBD Podcast

You're the one that claims you're a fair guy.

What are their policies? So tell me what policies are, like right now, the Democratic Party. Who is the face of the Democratic Party, and what are the top three things you guys stand for?

Why do you need YouTube more?
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Oh, thank you. Who needs who more? America? Do you need the American customers or do we need Bangladesh?

Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
It's going to bring jobs to America. This is why Apple said, I'm investing $500 trillion here. This is why the UAE said $1.4 trillion. This is why Saudi said $600 billion. This is why all these companies said hundreds of billions.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
I hope this goes well. But why did Rolls-Royce say, we're going to move our different plants that we have from Mexico, Canada, and China to U.S.? Why are they saying that? Why are they saying that? These are jobs for your American people that are not getting paid. Trump's trying to get those people jobs. Why don't you support it?

Dude, the guy's done more in the first 60 days than the last previous four presidents, not including him.

But he's not going to give you credit. You don't understand. He just said earlier, I'm not going to give my money to a private corporation.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
No, no, you said private.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
We can go back and play what you exactly said. This is recorded. So for me, to me, I'm already at a point that, you know, I ask you, if it's the same. If those numbers are accurate, do you support it? No. Okay, so no matter what Trump does, you're not going to support it.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
If trillions of dollars are going to be invested in the U.S. economy to create jobs, you don't support that.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
If trillions of dollars of money is going to be invested into our economy to create jobs, you don't support that. You want that money to go to the 10 million illegal immigrants that came here that was open order under Biden. That's what you're saying. And by the way, the fact that you're open about it and you're honest about it, great. At least you're not playing games.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
At least you're saying that's who I am. I would much rather give my money to TSA because it's a government entity than Clear. It's private. I would much rather give my jobs to illegal immigrants than give the jobs to Americans.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
It is. At least you get what you pay for. You're changing now the argument.

Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
Do you have someone you like that you would you would want to see or do you want to see the capitalistic competitive philosophy of somebody just comes out and let's see who it is? Because if there is, even you right now, Sam.
PBD Podcast
Trump's Liberation Day Tariffs HEATED Debate w/ Sam Seder | PBD Podcast | Ep. 570
What I mean by capitalistic, like competitive. Let's just see who comes out of the competition. Competition predates capitalism. Yeah, so that's good. The competition is a good thing, right?

We'll talk about that story. Frustration grows with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick ahead of Trump's tariff announcement. Loose cannon with half-baked ideas. Another story about private companies added 155,000 jobs in March, more than expected, ADP says. Hooters, bankruptcy, devastating for a lot of people. $376 million debt and restructuring.

So one, the Republican Party, like you said, I knew two years ago that Trump would be a DeSantis, all this other stuff. Right. We were on the same page. I thought it was going to be him. But a lot of Republicans were a little bit still staying safe and hesitant of whether they were going to go all in or not the first time you and I spoke. But today- When I said, who do you like? What policies?

Okay. Have you ever thought about starting in a drink company or energy drink company?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I remember when we were talking about potentially creating an energy drink and we flew out and we sat down, we tasted a bunch of different flavors. And then the guy was very honest. He was straight up and he said, look, when it comes down to drinks, people buy it not because it's good for them. They buy it because it tastes good. So if you can find a way to... It's important to make it more...
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
taste that's something that I'm willing to drink it two, three times a day, then make me feel like it's somewhat good for me. Psychologically, I'll feel like I'm compensating for this is good for me because if I take it, I'm getting vitamins, right?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So if you actually made a drink that was good for you, it probably wouldn't taste good and you wouldn't be addicted to it and maybe you wouldn't even need it.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Somebody may say, what's wrong with us? I just have my guy go and buy a bunch of drinks. And I want you to go through one by one by one. I got Monster. I got Vitamin Water, which I think 50 Cent was a part of. Can you pull up if Kobe and 50 Cent were part of Vitamin Water? You got Celsius, which is down here in Boca. You got Gatorade, which I want to be like Mike. He drank Gatorade.

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Is it? Okay, well, let's see if you can find... Well, the one you were on was fine, Rob. Just go back to that one because that was workable. Is that the monster one?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539

I've never done a podcast. We're in the middle of the podcast. We call my chef Alper, and he's talking about what we eat and what's in our pantry. My wife walks in. We brought all these drinks, all the energy drinks. We said, what do you think about this? We went through the ingredients. You've got to take a look at this. Snacks, fast food, what should you eat?

If you stay on sugar, by the way, I just want to show this while we're on the sugar topic. I just typed in right now what's more addictive, sugar or cocaine. This is what came up from Ramsey Healthcare UK.

It was interesting what he said it's okay to eat. Phone, I don't know about you. You know when sometimes you have the phone in your hand for too long and your hand gets hot and it gets warm and it feels weird and you have to go to this place? Wait till you see what he says about that. And then sleep, natural ways of increasing your testosterone level, which was very interesting.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Research on rats has found that sugar is more addictive than opioid, drugs such as cocaine, and there can be withdrawal symptoms such as depression and behavior problems when people try cutting out sugar completely. I mean, that addicting more than cocaine?

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Explanation. Go back to that one, Rob, where you were at. It said what? It says, no, honey doesn't cause diabetes, but eating too much honey can increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Honey is a natural sugar that raises blood sugar. Eating too much honey or any type of sugar can increase your risk of developing type 2.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Doctors may recommend that people with diabetes avoid honey and other sweeteners until their diabetes is well managed. Do you agree with that?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay. Let's go back to Monster, Robin. We're going to go through these drinks. If you want to go back to Monster, go for it.

And then in the middle of the podcast, he's not a fan of this guy that thinks he's going to live forever, the Brian Johnston guy that he claims he's going to live to what, Rob? 150, 130, 140, whatever the number is. He called him out to a fight in the middle of the podcast. Anyways... We covered a lot.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
What two great words to use though, right? It's like pro-choice, right? The words are pro-life. These are good words. So, you know, back in the days, life insurance used to be called death insurance, literally. And they called it to a life insurance. Life is more marketable than death insurance. So people were willing to buy life insurance, right?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So natural flavor to somebody who's not in that space. They said, honey, don't worry about it. This is natural flavor, right? So it's effective. It's a good marketing stunt.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Natural flavors is good. Color added to me doesn't sound good.

That the body doesn't really like?

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
But it just says vitamin B12 at the end. It doesn't explain what kind of vitamin B12 it is.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So across the board.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
All right, let's see what these guys are. Prime is also same you're saying?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
And actually, these guys say that it is, but Red Bull does not.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
And again, this is a form of... What's the difference? What is the difference actually between Celsius, Monster, Prime, and Red Bull?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
How about vitamin water?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So here's a question then. What... Is there anything you've heard Bobby Kennedy, RFK, talk about if he ends up becoming one of the most biggest jobs that he's got, a trillion and a half, I believe, the budget is. If I'm not mistaken, it's a big number that he has. If he does, bless you. What can he do that would massively disrupt the sports energy drink business?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
What we eat, what we can do to increase testosterone naturally, organically, what food is a waste of time. I'm going to bring all the different energy drinks. They're going to go pick up right now, and I want you to look at them and tell me what the ingredients are. Why is it good for you, bad for you? We're going to go through some junk food. This is purely for our employees here.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay, so then the question for me would be the following. So somebody who drinks these drinks, it's part of their lifestyle. They have one a day. sales offices, guys who feel like they need energy middle of the day, crash at 2, 3 o'clock after they come back from lunch, and you're like, okay, Paul, so let's just say you're saying that. How do I naturally increase my energy?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
What do I do for me not to have the afternoon crash, for me to wake up a lot of fire and energy? What can I eat naturally to increase energy that doesn't affect my health negatively?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
They chose this food that they have in our break rooms, and you need to tell them what's good, what's not, and scare the crap out of them with some of them. And then I'm going to bring my favorite bubble gum that will come out here that my 11-year-old son the other day were at the market. We're shopping, and I have it in there to pick it up, and Dylan goes like this. You're not going to chew this.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay. So, but, but here's what I want to do. Like I think to everything when you want to make progress, there's level one, level two, level three, level four, level five. Okay. The level five people will get to, but walk me through some, I just like, like for me, it started off, you know, uh, uh, July of 2019.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I'm having lunch at a breaker's hotel and my CFO Ian is sitting there fully in shape and is at 46 years old. He ran a four 50 mile, uh, And he said that in an interview, and I hired him. He was my CFO for three years. And I said, so I noticed you don't drink soda. He says, I don't. I was drinking three Coke Zeros a day at the time. And he says, no.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
He says, seven years ago, I stopped drinking Coke, and I haven't had any soda since. I said, really? He said, yes. I said, you know what? And I have a Coke Zero sitting in front of me. We're at Breakers in the lobby. My CIO, David, is sitting there. And I said, you know what? I'm going to go a week without any soda. The last time I had Coke Sprite, any kind of soda, was July of 2019.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So to me, that was easy. Just one thing to get rid of, right? Mm-hmm. If you were to make it very elementary, say, if you want to go at least with this, cut this. Number two is do this. Number three is, and if you really, really fully commit to level five is this, what would you say to people?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I don't do any soda, yeah.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Key word is fresh-pressed.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
How about tier two?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Even almonds are not good.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
All right. Again, they make it impossible to read it, right? What is the ingredients? Rob, can you pull this up? Because I can't even see where the ingredients are.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Kirkland Almonds.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I said, why? It's got red dye in it. I love it. And the cashier looks at my son and says, how do you know? He can't take this gum. It was so interesting watching 11 years old doing this. He's ahead of the curve. At 11 years old, bro. He's ahead of the curve. Yeah, so it's interesting. It's great to have you here, man.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay, so tier one, soda, diet or regular, whatever it is. Number two is any kind of, and by the way, including energy drinks, cut it out.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Two, you're saying anything like this, chips. Right. You know, even the almonds with the peanut oil in it. What else?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Fantastic. Yeah. Okay, so cheese, raw cheddar cheese. Great. So tier one, we got. Tier two, we got. What's tier three? I'm a little bit more committed. What do you challenge me to do?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
What fast food restaurant can I go to If I'm somebody that's super busy, I don't have time to prep my meal, I just want to go somewhere that's healthy, eat it and leave, what would you recommend that somewhat qualifies as healthy for you?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay, cool. So third phase is anything fast food, drop that from your diet and what you're doing because that's processed food. Processed food. What's tier four?

The way this question was started is we're looking at these energy drinks, and then I asked you, so, hey, how do I replace this with natural? And then you said, hey, half the battle is your sleep, your phone, how long you're watching your bed, how dark is it, your bedroom, is there lights available? So naturally, what can I do to increase my energy?

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Any of that stuff you want to cover, I want to hear all of it.

And you said something about... Trump, four hours, five hours, right? One day, one of these guys buy me this ring, and they say, Pat, can you put the ring on, oral ring, to see how much sleep you need and whatever you're doing? And they'll notice my pattern. And so you're only getting four hours, five hours, six hours, but the oral ring showed that I'm in REM

Make America healthy again. Then he walks across. with Trump and he's joining him and then you have Elon and all the other guys that are combining together. But out of all the things that they talked about regarding to health with Bobby, Big Pharma, Larry Ellison that came up yesterday with the cure for cancer, I'm going to play these clips to get your ideas.

longer than other people are in REM, faster. So somebody may sleep eight hours, but they only go REM for an hour, two hours, three hours, and I'll go REM, no problem. And the levels of it, obviously, that you go through. So then there's this article. I'm just going to, Robby, if you can just pull it up. There's an article that talks about it, and tell me what you think about this.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Gene identified in people who need Little sleep. Scientists identified a gene that causes people to naturally sleep less than six hours and a half. And without any apparent ill effects, the findings reveal the mechanism affect quantity sleep, quality sleep, and suggest an avenue to investigate for new sleep treatments. Getting enough sleep is important.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Go a little bit lower, Rob, to see what's the gene that he's talking about in here. Where is it? Previous studies have shown that... Okay, there it is. Using whole exome genome sequence, and the researchers researched for gene mutations that only the naturally short sleepers had. They found a rare mutation in the ADRB1 gene that was being passed through the family.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Family members who inherited one copy of this mutant gene had a shortened sleep cycle. The ADRB1 gene codes for the B1 androgenic receptor are found on many cells in the body and respond to hormones, including those known to regulate sleep-wake cycles. So what do you say when some people, you literally watch them. This guy's 78 years old going on four hours.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Is it because of a special gene they have? What's the reasoning? It's not like President Trump's diet's better than yours.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Because he's a big fan of McDonald's.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
You know why he won't? Because the way he is wired is for 78, it's worked for him. He fears that even if he listens to you, it may make it messed up for him. That's probably how we think. But are there people that, because of their genetics and their DNA and their wiring, they just don't need sleep as much as another person does?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539

He looks miserable. And then look at Trump's face. He looks so happy. He's so happy. His face. But even next to Bobby, you see Coke, right? You see different things that he's got there. And next to Trump, is that orange juice? What is that?

And, okay, please, so let's go back to, if you don't mind, I want to, in this part here with Trump and Bobby and McDonald's and what he does, you know, I saw your video 10 months ago where you were talking about McDonald's. You walk in there and you'd have the quarter pounder. I think you had the quarter pounder and the fries, and you show the fries has 18 different ingredients.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
You're like, why do you need 18 different ingredients? But then you see Trump goes out there and works fast food and makes the fries, and he brings all the eyeballs to it. Go back to sleep, okay? Sleep. From the people that you've met, some people are going to say, I'm one that can go without sleep, okay? And they're not.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
And some people know they can't, and typically everybody around them knows they can't. And they'll say, look, I can't hang like the way you hang, right? But the people that can go on four to six hours, not only do they know, the people around them know because it's abnormal, right? But to the average person,

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Sleep, phone, how much of somebody being on the phone at night before they go to sleep on two hours, does it hurt them with their energy the next day?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So what should one do with their phones next to their bed before they go into sleep?

So RF, EMF... Can you please say, please don't try this at home, folks? He's just telling us that's scientific. I don't want some people to go test this out.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
You're going to say, people right now, they're going to pause the video, go to the bathroom and just... Go do it.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I was watching a Paul Saladino video with PBD and decided to go to the bathroom, and this is what happened to it. Ten people are going to do it.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I just want to make sure you take ownership if people do do it, that they post it, that this was your idea. It's my idea. So let me ask you a weird question with this. I'm curious to know what you say with this. So, you know, for us, I'm in business. I've been in business for a long time. So I'm the guy that Nextel calls me one day and I'm on the phone with them.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
We're talking Nextel days, which is what, 20 years ago, 19 years ago. And they asked me a question. I'll never forget this. It was, they said, can we ask you, we got a group of us, we are really trying to find out what you do with your phone. I said, what do you mean? How did you send 51,000 text messages this month? Yeah. And to them, that was the highest one.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So they're like, we've never seen this before. So I said, what do you mean? I have this group text for this. I have that group text for this. And I'm driving sales team and I'm doing this. But they said 51,000. I said, just go look. You have access to it. So they were looking at it. So me driving, you're here, your access, your data, all this other stuff.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
One of the things I noticed happening just a few weeks ago was my hand was getting hot. Okay. Not the phone was hot. My hand was getting hot. that I switched to the left hand, right? Just because this hand was getting hot, okay? What is that from?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Where you're feeling a little bit of tension and your hand getting hotter, and it's even a little bit when you're trying to flex it or go like this, you feel a little bit of pain.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
You know, three days ago you could have said, or a woman carrying her four next to her testicles. There are only two genders. I want to qualify so the audience is not confused. Thank God. Things have changed. I'm happy about that. That's the part where I'm holding it and I'm like, what is going on with this, right? And you're kind of feeling it. Sleep. Stay on sleep.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
By the way, I'm eating this because it's really that good. He's not paying me for this. I'm just telling you guys, I like this a lot. It's good stuff. My mouth is full. But let me tell you this to you. I'm 46. In my 30s, I'd sleep through the night. In my 40s, I have to wake up once to go to the bathroom every night, okay? And a lot of my friends deal with that as well.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Vinny and I were talking about this. Some are one, some are two, some are three that they go through at night. One, is that just you're aging? Two, what can you do to not go through? Don't drink a lot of water before you go to sleep. What is it to do to make sure you sleep through the night without having to go to the bathroom?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So that's good. So progress being made. Now, you know, when I was sitting down with Bobby or even with Vivek, one of the things I asked him about, and you and I briefly talked about it, is what would it take for them to prevent big pharma from being able to advertise, right? And if they stop advertising, a lot of industries will be destroyed.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Wow, so after 4, you shouldn't be drinking water if you got your water up front.

Well, we have a friend whose name is Mario Aguilar. We have come to a conclusion, Rob, he's a little bit off. And he does very well with us. And he's been working with me for almost 20 years, 19 and a half years. This guy drinks six cups of coffee a day. He drinks a double shot of a, what is it? It's not espresso. What is the one that he does? Double shot of a, I think it is espresso.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Before he goes to sleep at night at nine o'clock, he sleeps to heavy metal music, okay? And it does nothing to him. So Mario, you're weird when it comes down to coffee. None of us drink as much coffee as you do. However, to the rest of us in the world, the last time I drank coffee was I was 25 years old.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
A lot of companies will be going out of business and some of them will be sold to others, right? Based on you being in this world and you're watching this closely, what are you noticing with possibility of big pharma not being able to advertise and why do you even support that?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I was giving a sales presentation in Encino on Victory and Balboa right across the street from Birmingham High School. And I drank two cups of coffee. I went in there. I gave the talk. I said, I can never drink coffee ever again. The last time I had it, I was 25 years old and I'm 46. So I don't do coffee. It's bad for me.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
It was caffeine. Yeah, when I had it, it was caffeine.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So I'm going to ask you this question. This is where I'm going to. And I said, this is the one question I don't want to ask you. If you see this question, it's because I took a risk because I'm going to hear it from my wife that's going to say this, and please don't share this with my wife. All right, here we go.

I love Arnold Palmer.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
And I do 80-20. Okay. Arnold Palmer, the real one, the golfer, we met, God bless his soul. We met him at a restaurant called 610 Magnolia, and I don't like golf and I don't golf. So I come out and I said, are you Arnold Palmer? He says, I am. He said, I got to tell you, man. Most people probably compliment you on your swing. You have the greatest drink in the world. But I do 80-20.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
80 iced tea, 20 lemonade. And if I go to a restaurant, I will have three, four, five glasses of Arnold Palmer. 80-20. Tell me why scientifically this is amazing for me so I can continue to drink Arnold Palmer. And please make sure you get your facts right because I wouldn't be too happy about it if you tell me it's not good for me.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
No, no. It's just purely iced tea and lemonade. Iced tea and lemonade.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Almost 90% of the Arnold Palmer I drink is after 6 p.m. I got you. So that's the problem.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
No, there's no way in the world I can do something like that. By the way, I brought my vitamins. Once a year I host a conference called the Vol Conference for business owners, executives around the world that come. Two years ago we had Tom Brady at the event. Last year we had The Rock at the event. Nearly 6,000 people showed up. This year we're doing it at Gaylord Orlando.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
We're expecting 12,000 people to be at the event. And executives, private equity, hedge fund, salespeople, sales executives. And this last year, a friend I've known for since I was 23, 23 years ago, Manny Soto says, Pat, what vitamins do you take? Are you on TRT? Are you on this? Are you on that? Are you on this? I said, I'm not on TRT. I was on TRT five years ago for six weeks, but...
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I had a breakout and my body was so hot. I couldn't go to sleep. I'm like, I can't do this because I'm already hot. To add that, it even elevated. So six weeks, I'm out. I'm not touching this. These are the vitamins I take. I want to show it to you. And I try to take these every day. I don't get to them every day, but the goal is to take these.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Tell me what you think about the vitamins I'm taking and say, I don't think you need this. This is a waste of time. This is good that you're taking this.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So I'll tell you what I do. So in the morning, breakfast, I only eat breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays. Every day I start off with a protein drink that I take.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Can you pull up the protein drink I take, Rob?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
at this point of the game. I know what's going on. By the time I'm done with you, I can't eat anything at all. Period. That's not it, Rob. Protein shakes. Is that the milk? Type in... Whoever is back there, Kelly, if you have one of the protein drinks, no, you don't have them.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I drink core powder.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Go to core powder protein.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Yes.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Is that what I drank? What are you guys laughing at in the back? Bring the drink. I can hear these guys. Look at these guys. You're entertaining them. I'm just going to make it easier for you right here. Oh, my goodness. We're doing this, Rob. We are doing this.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So you're suggesting only buy protein drinks in glass.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Don't make it. It's going to break. Paul's not making things easier right now. Okay, so I start off with this. Then lunch, my chef brings me my meal, and it'll typically be chicken, fish, protein, soup, and obviously you need to know whether it's processed. By the way, about two years ago, we cleaned house of the closet. We got rid of the... Not the closet. What do you call it? The pantry. Pantry.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
We got rid of 100% of cereal. Our kids don't eat any cereal. Amazing. Literally, we came and said, what do we need to get rid of? And I was shell-shocked how many things we had to get rid of, right? But still, we're Middle Eastern. I am. Not everything is gone. But for the most part, the food I eat at lunch is good. Then at night, I go back. He cooks again. I have the meal with him.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
And then we're done. So that's what I'm eating throughout the day.

Okay, so what else would you say? Because he'll do... he'll make different types of meals, soup, rice, but we don't do a lot of rice because we've cut a lot of the rice. Alper, maybe tell him a breakdown of what some of the meals may look like.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Alper, what did we change the last two years? From the moment we hired you to now, what did we change dramatically with our food?

What are your thoughts with TRT? You know, a lot of people nowadays, it's, you know, some people are saying the other day Mark Zuckerberg getting caught, you know, on the camera, you know, making sure Bezos' wife was okay. is due to him possibly taking TRT, so he's extra sensitive, and your energy is fired up.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I don't know what it was, but it was this moment where... And he did this without using his Facebook glasses, which was kind of interesting. But some are saying this could be because he's on TRT, he's fighting, he's doing all this other stuff, and he's at a different age right now than before. But what are your thoughts on TRT?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
No, no, no, it's bad for you. No, it's good for you. So which one is it, right? How does the average person differentiate between who to listen to and not to listen to?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Are you on TRT? Like, do you do TRT?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Have you ever done TRT?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
How do you test to see if you're on TRT or not?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay, so next question. Next question is cigars, cigarettes, weed, vape, and those nicotine, what do you call it? What is it called? Zin. Zin, but they call it something.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
The nicotine. Out of those five things... If you were to say, is there one that's less risky than other, what would you say of the five?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Got it. So in other words, listen, that's not an endorsement of smoking cigars.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
It's just the least of the five.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
What was the worst you had of the five?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Yeah. Interesting to see where that's at. A lot of people, you'll hear people talking about nicotine is good for you. We're in D.C., and we're outside, and I see this guy always in the morning and at night, Paul. He's in a corner smoking cigarettes. So I told him, I said, hey, John, both guys' name is John. I said, hey, I see you in the morning and in the afternoon.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
At night, you have your cigarette appointment. He says, you know, nicotine is actually good for you. You know what they found out? Here's what he told me. He says, you know what they found out? In front of my two boys, my 12- and 11-year-old son, he says, you know what they found out? People that smoke cigarettes... actually didn't get the COVID virus as much as people who didn't.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So are you telling me smoking cigarettes is good for you? He says, no, no, no, no, no. All I'm telling you is the fact that if you smoke cigarettes, you didn't get COVID as much as people that, you know, were smoking cigarettes. Then he says, what I am saying is that nicotine is good for you. And you'll hear this argument being made by a lot of different people. What's your argument to that?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
They're used as a drug.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay. All right. This one upsets you a little bit. You got a little bit angry, Paul. I don't want to upset you while we're here together. All right. So a story about fluoride and water.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay. And the link between fluoride and water with low IQ. Yeah. Okay. You read stuff like this, and you're kind of sitting there saying, what is the level of credibility in this? And it's been written about by different people. You showed me one of the articles that you and I were going back and forth on. So what is the link between high fluoride exposure that may lead to low IQs in children?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Okay, so high fluoride. A parent who is trying to say, okay, I don't want my kids to have the high fluoride water, what do you look for?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
No matter what. So you're going to get it no matter what because of what's being used to grow the plants, grow fruit, grow.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
That's the simplest maxim you could ever— If your great-grandmother—so if I take this out, this is Doritos— And what am I looking at? So am I going to here on this side? So whatever it's telling me on the ingredient side. You're not talking about the total fat, saturated vitamins, all that stuff. No, no, no. Just read the ingredients. Over here.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
What does Bobby say he wants to do with that, with fluoride and water? I think he wants to take it out. How successful do you think he could be doing that?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Do you know states that don't allow it?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
There it is. Hawaii is the only state that bans fluoride. Fluoridation. Fluoridation. Most states leave it to individual water systems or localities. Interesting. So Hawaii is the only one. Jersey, less than 20% of the population served by public water versus systemic risk of fluoride in water. Oregon, less than 33% of the population by water systems. Idaho, 34.7%. Then it's Louisiana. Then Utah.

Well, they make it so small that you can't read it. You can't even read it. My grandmother couldn't even read it. So she probably would have eaten it. You're done. Then you're already done. You're already screwed. So such as what? Like is there anything you would say, look for the following five, six, seven things?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
States with law mandating... fluoridation. California, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada. Some communities have voted to remove fluoride from their water systems. Mims Water in Brevard County, Florida, part of Gloverville, South Carolina,
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
City in Iowa, Eldora, Syracuse, Indiana, Collier County, Florida, Emory, Wisconsin, State College, Pennsylvania, Brushy Creek, Texas. It'll be interesting to see what they do with this.

You've never seen the movie? No. His skin is so... He looks like... His skin is super pale. It's so pale. It's so pale. In the movie Powder, his parents were afraid of him. Do you remember this story, Rob? Have you ever seen this or no? I believe he was struck by lightning. He was struck by lightning, and his parents were afraid of putting him out. And so he was in a basement, never got the sun.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
He looked like that. So his skin tone kind of super pale.

Got it. This is the tweet. First, you say seed oils are good for humans. I do not understand the literature. Now you're citing horrible observational research to suggest red meat is bad for humans.

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
It'd be interesting to see because again, he has a lot of people. He was on the, can you play that clip? He was on a flagrant podcast and they asked him, how old are you? And the way he broke it down was very interesting. Play that clip, Rob.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So your thoughts on what he just said. Hundreds of different ages.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I'd be curious. I'd be curious enough for you guys to sit down.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Yeah. Well, listen, I'm sure it can be pulled off.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I think a long-form podcast with the two of you guys doing it would be very entertaining.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
To see different views.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I'm going to ask this last question, and then, babe, whatever question you got, I know you got a couple questions that will go to you as well. So SNAP, which used to be called food stamps, and now they call it SNAP, and not as in food stamps changed to Snapchat. They literally changed the name for food stamps to SNAP because it's called Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
I didn't even know they changed it, but apparently they changed it because they said food stamps was a little bit offensive, so they kind of wanted to find a different name for it. It is what it is. The name was changed in 2008 to reduce stigma associated with the program since we've had food stamps in place since 1939. It is what it is. Okay, so this article, food stamps, crazy stats, 75%.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Of the $115 billion spent in SNAP funding goes to processed food, and 10% of all SNAP food stamp funding goes to soda. You share this with me.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
How crazy. But how do you process that information?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
47%.

Have you and Bobby done anything or no?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Yeah, very interesting. Listen, I can talk to you forever because to me, one of the things one of the guys said in the back, which I'm curious to know what you say about this. You'll hear about back in the days I used to drink RC Cola. I'm talking 30 years ago. Part of it wasn't because I liked RC Cola. Part of it was because we were broke and RC was cheap Coke. It was half the price of Coke.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So we would drink RC Cola. You would hear stuff about Coke in Mexico uses different kind of sugar than the Coke here, which is healthier to drink your Coke from Mexico to here. What can you say about that?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So out of all these things here that we see, is there any of these that you would eat and say, this is an okay snack to eat?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Are you joking? There's nothing on this table. So Doritos, you're not eating?
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Fritos? No, no. Okay. Cheez-It? No, no. They love this, though. Cheez-It makes you smile. You said you have to be happy a little bit. So Cheez-It, how about these guys?

How about Pringles?

But how do you process that information? Corruption.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Yeah, this is... It was common among hatters in 18th and 20th century to use mercury to... Stiffen the felt. Stiffen felt, tremors, symptoms, tremors, irritability, slurred speech, depression, shyness, low self-confidence, apathy, personality changes, memory loss, and headaches. Wow.

PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So if somebody did have a heart attack in 1900, what was the cause?

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
But this is pre this stuff.
PBD Podcast
"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
Right there it says, in the early 1900s, heart attack rates were significantly lower. compared to later decades, as heart disease was not a leading cause of death at the time.

Instead, infectious diseases like pneumonia, tuberculosis, meaning heart attacks were considered uncommon in the early 20th century, but saw a substantial rise throughout the century, becoming the most common cause of death by mid-century. What happened in the mid-century?

Oh, you're actually being serious. You'd want to do this. Oh, absolutely. Oh, that'd be fun. Okay. This is what you drink? Yes. All right. What are you guys laughing at in the back? Bring the drink.

"Stop Eating This CRAP!" – Paul Saladino DEMOLISHES Modern Diets, Processed Foods & Big Food Lies | PBD Podcast | Ep. 539
So why did companies use them? Is it purely because it makes the taste better? Is it because it's more...

“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
Do you think President Trump and Musk are making progress in shrinking the government today?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
And every time he speaks, I was just sharing a story with Dr. Ron Paul earlier about what you and I, the first time we sat down together in Houston, and that stuck with me till today. It's an honor again to have you on the podcast, Dr. Ron Paul. How are you doing, sir?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
You don't sound optimistic.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
It's great to have you on here. So question, with everything that's going on right now, with all the policies that we're seeing, where you're seeing the deals happening with the Panama Canal and BlackRock, or Doge, Elon talking about the $100 billion in savings, or the tariff wars between Canada and China and U.S.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
The reason why I said are you optimistic is because you said you're going to see there's going to be an epidemic or there's going to be something that someone's going to need money for us to print money. Florida, you said, watch, there's going to be a situation for us to spend money. That's what you're saying, right?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
How do you do that?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
No, I'm with you on that part. So this is why I asked you the question earlier when I said, do you think to fully get the libertarian philosophies in there, it's tough to do when America is this big. You can talk about it, but it's easier to do to start a country. And this is kind of where I was going with it. This is where I was going with it. And the question I want to ask.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
But let me ask the question. I want you to go into this part. So, for example, right now, you said this year, next year, I don't see the deficit moving. We're still going to be spending. It's going to take a year or two before we get there. Great. So then for somebody from the outside looks and says, OK, Dr. Ron Paul, so Trump is president now.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
So then say a person like a Joe Biden gets in in 2028. I'm just making this up. I know a lot of people think it's going to be J.D. Vance and all that. But let's just say Newsom gets in. So then philosophies change. So if Elon and Trump do what they do the next four years and they show results.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
And say they drop another crisis that happens in 2028 to get people to hate Trump and Musk and they use fear porn and they scare the crap out of America and they go for a person like Newsom. You're constantly changing the pendulum where philosophies don't have enough time to create momentum. I don't know if this makes sense. So this is kind of like Steve Bannon was on Cuomo yesterday.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
And Steve Bannon was telling Cuomo that, you know what we need? We need Trump to go for a third term. And Cuomo's like, that's not possible. We can't do that. And he says, no, that's what we need. We're already working on it. I don't know if you saw this clip or not. Rob, if you got it, you know, I want you to hear this clip here. It's Bannon with Cuomo.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
and Mexico, with everything that is taking place, what are you most excited about and optimistic about, and what are you most concerned about?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
Rob, if you can play this, you'll hear the audio. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
I guess the question I'm asking is, in order for us to keep a philosophy of DOGE, Department of Governmental Efficiencies, going and really teaching this, don't you think you need the same philosophy to be running the country for 12 years so everybody will get locked in and saving money? Because if we keep changing administration, we're losing momentum.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
Oh, so here's how I think about what you just said. So if we look at that right there, 1920, 1921, Rob, if you can go to the images to just see it, I know he won't be able to see it, but I'll kind of state it. So you'll see a big nosedive, right, with what happens to the economy. But what happened eight years later?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
The Great Depression comes, and that gives the opportunity for a guy like FDR to say, this is why we need social security. This is why we need this. This is why we need that. If the situation and the scenario happen that you're claiming to happen, like let the market crash and go through it,
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
I mean, you are giving the opposition and the Marxists an easy play to get out there and say, you see, we tried Trumponomics, we tried Doge, we tried this, and look what it did. It hurt the small guy. It hurt middle America. How are we going to handle this? This is why I keep, when I have conversations with libertarians, I see myself as a libertarian when it comes down to economics.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
The only thing I see right now is, In order for momentum to be created where there needs to be a locked-in belief in one system for many years, I think that is very challenging to do in our kind of a system.
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
And I think that's one of the reasons why you're seeing Bannon and some of the other guys talking about we may need to have the same administration for back-to-back terms, even though he can't do it, for us to actually show results on what's possible.

PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
If the situation and the scenario happened that you're claiming, to get it to the levels that you'd like it to get to, it's a massive disruption to the system, no?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
You don't sound optimistic.

“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
Do you think the philosophies of the libertarian—you would still consider yourself a libertarian today, yes? Would you consider yourself a libertarian?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
Okay, so whenever I see IA and at the end I think about Armenians because I'm half Armenian, so I think about libertarian in a different way. But the reason why I ask that question is, do you think the libertarian philosophies would be very difficult to do for a company as big as ours, a country as big as ours, where it would be a good philosophy to start off a nation with?
PBD Podcast
“They Want CHAOS In The Streets"– Ron Paul On Empire Collapse, Censorship & The WAR On Liberty | PBD Podcast | Ep . 565
So even if somebody like you got in, it would be very hard to get it to the levels that you would like it to get to. Because to get it to the levels that you'd like it to get to, it's a massive disruption to the system, no?

I shared a story that most people don't know about. I opened it up with my story and my affinity and my connection with him from 21 years old. We talked about his relationship with Diddy because at one point he was working with Diddy and helping him out with certain things he was going through. We talked about how he one time was working with Kanye and Kardashians.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Tony, that's insane when you say 48 years. Tony, when you were around Jim, I've read Jim's books and the stuff he tells, his voice, he sounded like Johnny Carson, by the way, right? If you put them together, it's like that area of Johnny Carson type of voice.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Yeah, the speed, the pacing. But when you're around Jim, like, you know, we can spend time here. And then I can be in a room watching you negotiate. And then I can be in a room on Monday morning watching you run your leadership meeting. And then I can watch you when shit hits the fan. I'm seeing a different Tony, right? This is camera, you know, everything that's there.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
When you worked with Jim, how close did you get to him where you saw certain things he did that maybe we've not even read about in books? Was there certain ways he ran meetings? Did he ever have a tough conversation? If he did, what was his approach for having a tough conversation? What made Jim so unique behind closed doors?

PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
We talked about money, the secret to private equity and how all of a sudden his interest in private equity and some of the stuff that he'll share with you financially that you yourself are going to be like, that's pretty interesting. I can use that for myself. We talked about NLP, how a mentor of his
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
But I'm going to stay on Jim real quick. It's so funny. Just yesterday, I'm at the house. I'm thinking about what book to give to my son next. And I have two books to choose from. One of them was Leading an Inspired Life, and I give him the other one because I said, you'll read this one afterwards. My oldest son, 12 years old, loves politics, so he got a different book. That book was impactful.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
And the other one that he wrote, Seven Strategies for Wealth and Happiness, the yellow cover book. I don't know if you remember that or not. So going back to it. Fill the room, 1,000 people. I'll come in. We'll split the ticket sales, whatever we have.

“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
would teach NLP that the audience would be people from sales, from former CIA and existing CIA people showing up to the conference. That was fantastic to talk about. And for a guy that's about human psychology, human performance, I asked him about Luigi Mangione, who killed... the CEO of United Healthcare, and I said, what is the profile of somebody who does this?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets

And if I'm not mistaken, he had guys that were from salespeople to CIA agents coming in to learn from this guy, right? I mean, I'm sure you're going to educate us more on this here. How did the introduction happen to him? And what were some of the profile of people that would attend the events?

PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Tony, let me ask you, for you, are you a lefty or a righty? Right-handed. Okay, so... When I'm already feeling the spirit of competition, it's insane. I mean, whether you want you want to identify that or not at this. I feel your your I go back to the 22 year old. At least let me go to that. I go to the 22 year old Tony and I feel fire competitiveness like in a big way.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
OK, it's very obvious the ambition, the fire is felt, fire is felt. Because I know what I was telling myself when I felt like I could compete. The moment I realized I could compete in the space, it was almost my secret weapon that nobody else knew. And I don't know what I mean by this. For you, you're born 229, right? February 29th. It's not a lot of people born on 229. It's a leap year, right?

“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
When I'm 84, I'll be 21. It's a good deal. Yeah. It works backwards. It works in your favor. That's why you look so young and you don't look your age. But did you, at what point did you feel like, you know, because I know typically it's kind of like, well, I'm just a regular guy. You can't use that. You know how some people are like, I'm just a regular guy.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Maybe that would have worked 40 years ago. It's not going to work today. Everybody now knows you're not a regular guy. There's something deep down inside that you tapped into, right? When did you know
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
that there was something unique about you, or like, you know, I'm willing to go to levels that this other person's not willing to go to, and I'm willing to tolerate pain more than you will, and I will not stop until, what was that moment, and what you told yourself?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Because the competition is for, when I ask you, and I said, so, when you think about Jim Rohn, was Jim Rohn, who Tony is today, you're like, no, he would be running. My schedule was back-to-back, and he'd run this, right? Okay. Was there a moment for you where you said, I think they have no clue what the F I'm about to do. They're going to find out who I really am here.

PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
is you can have a very good life, and you can get to new heights. There's certain people that become the GOAT. There's a difference. You're not one of the best. You're the best in your space.

I was blown away. You'll see my reaction when he tells me. I shared a story about the time there was a background check done on me and what the investors found on me.

Okay, got it.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
How much of that blame is the educational system?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
How do you get to this point with these basic comments?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
And I know you don't like to put blame. Maybe let's change the word to responsibility. Does the responsibility lies on our educational system, society, parents? Who's the first domino to this?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Yeah, your customers are everywhere.

PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Oh, I bet. Because I know you got a relationship with Bobby and I think he's phenomenal at what he does. And I'm sure as an independent yourself, you're probably interested to see what directions he's going to take. You know, the part with Bobby, since we're here. So I remember interviewing, it's an event in 2019. I have Kobe Bryant, the late Kobe Bryant at this event.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
I have President Bush at this event. We're at the Mirage. Billy Bean is there from Moneyball. I don't know if you've seen the movie Moneyball. I brought him three times. And I had Jordan Peterson there. I'm interviewing Jordan Peterson. And while I'm sitting there going through it, I'm like, this guy's going through something. He's in pain. Something's bothering him. He just looked different.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Right after the interview was done, he disappeared. This is when he went to Russia. I don't know if you were following the story or not. He openly talked about it himself, Michaela, his daughter. And then he talked about the fact that, you know, there are certain medication, lorazepam, whatever it was that, you know, he went through. He's not alone. A lot of people have gone through that, right?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
This... direction where we're at. My oldest son, when we were in Dallas, his teacher says, I need you to go have your kids see this therapist because I think your son has something. I'm like, what? Yeah. Okay. I actually want to do it to see what you want my son to do. So to me, it became a project. Oh, let's go through it. My son, my oldest son's just like me.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
He's curious, different, can't stop talking, reading. He's always like all over the place. So I took him to the doctor. You know what? ADHD, you may want to consider taking this medication. We can do this. We can do that. I'm like, yeah, that's where it stops, guys. We're good. We got to go home. Thank you so much. He's okay. This kid's going to be okay. But for a guy like me, I'm in the space.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
I'm around a lot of people. I'm talking to guys who are, you know, using their resources where you can borrow and you're reading. To the average person with this direction we're going, but hey, you got a problem, take this pill. Take this, you know, bipolar pill. Take this, whatever this pill is, Prozac.

PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
A lot of guys are on a lot of stuff. I have no idea this many medication people are taking, right? How do we get there and to what's the solution for it long term?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
What's missing?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
For the average person, I get what you're saying. For me at this phase of my life, if I was 35, when I was 20, 13, and 20, 14, 20, I will tell you, anxiety and panic was at the highest level. We had our second kid. I'm in church. I'm going out because I can't control my chest. My palms are sweating. And I'm constantly worried. One day I'm coming back from a tour.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Two of my guys are going through messing the company. I'm about to lose the whole thing. This has got to be 2013. And one night I go to ER. It's 2 o'clock in the morning. My dad comes. He says, I think my son's having a heart attack. I go to ER, and I'm like, look, what the hell is going on with my body? He says, dude, your body is exhausted. You haven't drank any water. What have you been doing?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
I've been on a 30-day tour. Well, listen, you haven't gotten sleep. I was at two or three hours because we're going city, city, city, city, city. I'm trying to grow the business. But the anxiety was of, man, we're about to, I can't control this, all this other stuff. And then I went through the phase of finding it for myself. But to the average person, we focus on what we don't have.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
To the average person, we focus on what I have no control over. President, what am I going to do? Election, taxes, oh my God, drones, what's going on over here? For sure, I agree.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Yes. Okay. I'd like to be present, but I will tell you, I'm a future guy.

You have no interest.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
And you spoke to the other side as well.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
You made a video about it, I think.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Right.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
How long have you known Trump? Do you and Trump go way back or not?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Has he been to an event or no?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Well, that's cool to hear. By the way, if the average person is watching this, I do want the audience to know about Time to Write. So if you don't mind, let's finish up with that. But I do want to say something here to the audience. How many live events do you still do? Just out of curiosity. Are you still doing one a month, one every other month? Or how many are you doing?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
And you do Palm Beach Convention Center, right?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
How many live do you do?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Physically live that you're there. Yeah. Okay. So listen, do me a favor. 2025 is around the corner. Just trust me when I'm telling you this. On your to-do list of things to do, if you've never seen this, it's a spectacle because I don't know how much longer he's going to do it. He's at a different phase of his life. Tony may all of a sudden, 2026, I'm done.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
I'm not going to be doing events anymore. And he may lower the amount of things because he's kids, family, all the responsibility that he has. Whatever you're doing, schedule time for you and your wife, if you have an older son or daughter, Take them with you to the event. It truly is something you'll never see. For the people, like I never had a chance to watch Michael Jordan play. Never.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
I watched Kobe play many times. I never had a chance to go to a Michael Jackson concert. Michael Jackson, you know, Prince, I never saw those performers. You have to go watch a live event on Tony. You just have to do that. Whatever he's going to say next, great. All I'm saying to you is if you get a chance to go watch a live event, it'll inspire you in ways you've never seen.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
And it'll also get you to think about what the human body is capable of doing. I think it's very important to witness that. But if you don't mind, I know we're getting to the end of it here. Time to rise. What could you tell us about that event?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Everybody now knows you're not a regular guy. There's something deep down inside that you tapped into.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Can I give you a gift?
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Okay, Rob, is it where I think before you bring it in. So when we were walking in, you came into your helicopter and we walked into the building. And when we walked in, I want to say eight years ago, I'm in an auction and I buy three statues that I've been wanting to have for a long time in my office. And it wasn't easy to get because you have to get it from somebody that's on the inside. Yes.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Even when I became a minority owner of the Yankees, one of the guys that's a Pittsburgh Steelers owner called me and said, hey, I noticed that you have this statue. Can I buy it from you? I said, dude, I don't want to sell it. I don't want to do any of that. We walked in here. You commented on the Batman that I had outside. I want to gift it to you, man. I just want to hand it over to you.
PBD Podcast

I know you can go by. No, no, no. But when you came in, the reaction I saw.
PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets

PBD Podcast
“BIGGEST MISTAKE Of My Career” - Tony Robbins $125 Million Loss, Trump Relationship & NLP Secrets
Now you can add that over there. You coming out here, I really appreciate it. And like I said to you earlier, man, you're an inspiration to millions, including this guy.

By the way, a part of me loves this and a part of me wants to see the counter argument. Make the argument on what's the right thing to do here. You make one example of a drug dealer getting killed on death penalty. So the guy says, hey, man, you're going to make $100,000 on this cocaine. Hey, bro, I'm good.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
You're right. There was a doctor.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
A dentist was selling Vicodin to my friend who eventually died because he took 50 of them. A dentist was selling them back in the days. And that's legal. Ten bucks a pop, eight bucks a pop because you would buy so many of them. No, but to me... That dentist needs to be held accountable. I know who this dentist is. That dentist needs to be held accountable. Guys like this are out there.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555

A couple more topics before we wrap up. Good point. By the way, Rob, can you pull up the clip with the president? Actually, Zelensky and the president together. That is a clip that doesn't get... I can watch it so many times. Watching this guy's audacity to feel comfortable. Just go to my Twitter account, Rob. You're going to have a long time finding it.

You'll see the video. This is... Zelensky in a White House sitting next to J.D. Vance. Do the first one. Do the first one. Lower. Not that one. That's about his outfit. Go on lower. Right there. I want to get your reaction on this. This is Zelensky sitting there talking to the president. And by the way, some people are saying that he slipped up a ward and he cursed at J.D. Vance. Call him a bitch.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Crazy. By the way, when you say dismissed, Rob just pulled this up. As of March 3rd, the charges against Andrew Tate have not been dismissed. In December 2024, a Romanian court identified procedural errors in the case leading to a dismissal. However, investigations into allegations of human trafficking, rape, and forming an organized crime group

Is that allowed? So Romania is expecting you to be back by March 23rd. Correct. That's because of this. No. And did they allow you to leave purely for, what's the reason why they allow you to come to the States?
PBD Podcast

Do you have any plans of ever interviewing Trump?
PBD Podcast

Patek Philippe. So based on that, let's give you the final thoughts before we wrap up because we've been going out for about three and a half hours. We're about three hours and 40 minutes. And I want to get you out of here because we've got to go on the other side as well. What final message do you have to all the lovely haters out there, your supporters, everybody out there that's watching you?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
That's what it takes. By the way, Adam, were you going to say something? No, I'm just recording. All right. Well, listen, this is part three. First one we did, he was a Christian. Second one he did, he's a Muslim. Third one he did, he's a Muslim.
PBD Podcast

Third one, he's Batman. Fourth one, who knows? Black man. He's always changing and evolving. Tate, it's great to have you on. Thank you, sir. Looking forward to seeing what happens with you. Future looks bright, buddy. Thank you, sir.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Text it to as many people as you know to make sure everybody gets the message. Tate said, push me, challenge me. Nothing's on the table. We're going to talk about a bunch of different things. But make sure you get this message to as many people as possible. Whether you're watching this on X or YouTube, let's make sure we do that. Okay, so opening question. Everybody's doing their thing.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So, but was there any help from Trump's camp to help you get here? Was there any influence there? I have no idea. Okay. So you don't know. Okay.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Not one. Well, let me ask this one here with this situation here, that you're in the States. Can UK, because UK and US have an extradition, they have a law that I think came about, Rob, if you can pull it up, I think it's 03 or 07 or something like that. Can UK say now he's in the States, UK, can UK and US's relationship with each other do anything to you? Is that a risk of yours?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Is that a concern of yours or not at all?

Nobody's paying attention to what's going on. And then all of a sudden, Andrew and Tristan Tate are on a flight on their way to Florida. They haven't tweeted anything for 24 hours. You guys concern people when you stop tweeting things, right? And then all of a sudden, tweet X, whatever you want to call it, there was no message going out. I don't know if you can say X-ing, right?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
They were tweeting. So then all of a sudden, the news is you land in Florida. Everybody sees the video. When that happens, the great governor of Florida, which is one of the reasons why we moved here, he does a great job running the state. He was asked about you. This is what he had to say. Rob, if you can play the clip.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
We're doing our best. How did it feel when you landed? You haven't been here for six years. What was that feeling like when you guys landed in the state? You were born here in D.C. What did that feel like?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Reminisce, family, memories, you and Tristan by yourself. Hey, man, this is kind of cool. Six years, nothing? There is an element of that.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555

If I wanted to find out what my audience looks like, and I were to bring it down to 100 people, and I said, okay, let me take all the followers, and let's just say they're in the room together. What do they look like? I'm like, okay, 62% business owners, cool. 3.8% Middle Eastern, great. Politics, family, kids, finance, got it.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
If I was to go in the room and bring it down to 100 people out of your tens of millions of followers that you have, what do you think your followers look like?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
All around the world. So do you think they're – obviously, I don't think any of them would be liberals. Is that fair to say? A very small percentage would be liberals. Correct. Okay. And a big percentage of them would be conservatives, libertarians, driven moneymakers, competitive business owners, sales. Some of them would be that, right? Okay.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So this is the part with what some people say about you. The Santas we already covered, so we can skip the Santas because – You were very direct with DeSantis.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Right, that's right. Your friend Ron, you're going to be his CMO to help him with his campaign for 2020, which was very kind of you. Dave Portnoy. Here's Dave Portnoy. who is a Trump supporter. He sat Trump on. He actually did a good interview with him. He's got a right-leaning audience.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
He says, what's the point of booting out illegals and criminals while somehow becoming a safe haven for the Tate brothers? That's one. Two, Ben Shapiro, okay? You know who he is. You and Ben, good friends. I'm sure you have had dinner already since you've been here. Let's do one by one. Okay, so let's do Dave. Let's do Dave. Go with Dave. What do you say to Dave?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Dave's a guy that's done well for himself. What do you say to him?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
It's a Patek thing, but I've got diamonds on mine. Listen, I think Dave can afford the Patek. I just wonder what, you know, for him saying something like that. Let's go to Shapiro. Shapiro says, you know.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So he says you're now welcome. Now, President Trump was asked. President Trump was asked the same question. This was his reaction, and I'm just going to turn it over to you after this. Turn off the other one, Rob. Just close it up. Yeah, there you go. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
What's this one here, by the way, Rob? That's Dave Portnoy. This is Ben Shapiro. Let's go to Shapiro.

One second.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Listen, I suggested the other day that you and Ben do a podcast together.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
All right, let's see what you're going to say about this next one. Who we got?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
She's got a lot of credibility. Megyn Kelly. I don't know if you saw what she said. And Megyn is a G. Megyn's very good at what she does.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Yeah, she came out and she, you know, the Tampa Bay Young Republicans said something about welcoming you and Tristan as a free speech absolutist. The Tates haven't been formally convicted of any crime. And we are welcome to speak to our group. He is welcome to speak. We are old enough to remember when a convicted felon won the presidency.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
She responds, you've lost your ways, boys.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Okay, so it's episode 555 with the one and only Andrew Tate. We did it once. The first time, I think, was in Madrid. Second time was in Romania. Third time is in the States. He's in the flesh. He's here on the set. Andrew, it's great to have you on. Bro, it's very good to see you. Yes, it's good to see you. It's been a while. What's it been, two years? It's been two years.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Maybe driving classes. People are allowed.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Oh, yeah. She doesn't know me. No, no, no. Meaning, let's just say Megan invites you. Would you speak with her? Would you do a show with her?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I mean, listen, what a big heart you have.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
You know where I'm going with this? This is kind of where I'm going with this. The reason why I'm going with this is the following. I'm really trying to find out. Josh Hawley, respected guy. This guy is a respected guy. I don't think conservatives should be glorifying this guy at all.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I certainly don't think that we should be using any influence in our government to try to get him out of what seem to be extremely serious charges in Romania. So I would hope that we weren't involved in any way.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Josh Hawley. Sorry, wait, wait. Who? Rob, can you pull up a picture so we can see Josh? A big YouTuber. Who? Pull him up. Josh Hawley. Who? This guy. This guy right here. Oh, soy face. By the way. Fuck it. Fuck him. He is respected. He is respected.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Not by me. Okay. So. Next. In a serious conversation, why do you think some of these guys, Megan's a family person. Josh, family person. Dave, fair. You want to say what you want to say about Dave, single, doesn't have kids yet, all that other stuff. I forgot. Dave who? Dave Portnoy. Sorry, I forgot. You got Ben Shapiro, family guy. On the conservative side.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Okay, so that's your opinion. Stick to the family.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
That's a Diamond Protect fact. Stick with conservative families, okay? Sure. Why do you think they have a challenge? What do you think it is? Purely with the values and principles. Because you talk about justice earlier. Justice is important to you, right? And I've watched you. I'm a family guy. I got a wife. I got four kids. I got two boys, two girls.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And listen, if I had it my way, I'd go to 20. Look, I'm sure you like seeing Elon having his 14th. I'm sure that for you it's kind of like- Maybe we all understand each other.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Yeah, but the point being, we've spent time, and we'll sit down and I say, that's just not my lifestyle. I would do it this way. Him and I don't see face-to-face here. We disagree here, but we get along. We have a respectful conversation every single time. Absolutely. But why do you think some of the conservatives- who are net positive to society, why do you think they have a problem with you?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So you got the governor says Florida is not a place where you belong or welcome to. President Trump says he doesn't know anything about it. How were you allowed to come to the States and leave Romania? You know what's interesting?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Specific to conservatives, though.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I don't know.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
This is Adam Kinzinger.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Henry Kissinger was a former... Which, by the way, you're right. Kissinger was... A guy that caused war a lot. Oh, but you may be talking about Adam Kinzinger. Is he pro-war? Adam Kinzinger is not going to be a fan of yours. No, for sure not.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Just to specify, because if you're going to say this pastor from Nebraska, let's give him some love. Do you remember his name or no? No. His name is Pastor Shane Eidelman. I think that's the guy.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Yeah, but let me tell you on what he's saying. A part of it for me, I wrote four things down. Intentionality as a father, if you're intentional. One day my dad, before I'm having kids, I'm having a conversation with him. I'm like, listen, for many years I saw you once a week. I calculated how many days I saw my dad from the day I was born until I was 18 years old. It was like 500 days. Really?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I only saw him 500 days. It was once a week. And then when my parents got a divorce in Germany, I never saw him. Never even talked to him once for 18 months. And when I came here, they got a divorce. I saw him once every other week for one day. So you're talking about what? 26 days a year. 26 days a year for five years due to math. I've seen the guy 500 days from zero to 18. He's my hero.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
He lives with us, right? I asked him, I said, do you regret any of it? He said, not at all. I said, why not? I said, look at the man you are today. You're independent, you're a leader, you're all this other stuff. But let me tell you something here that I think Vinny and Adam, you guys are going to get emotional when I play this clip. Have you seen what Gene Hackman said about his father? No.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Gene Hackman just died. I had 95 years old. Nominated for five movies, five Oscars, right? I think he won two of them. Phenomenal actor. I don't think anybody disputes how great of an actor he was. His house, where one time at Pebble Beach, the guy says, that's Gene Hackman's $30 million house. This was like 12 years ago. He's asked here about his father. In this interview, he's 78 years old.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
By the way, did you even know I was going to play this clip? Rob, did you show him the clip or they haven't seen the clip? Who's 78? So Gene Hackman died at 95. This is him at 78. This is 17 years ago. The interviewer is a great interviewer. This Insider Actor Studio does a great job. He asks him about his dad who walked away at 13 years old.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Look how this 78-year-old alpha winner reacts to that question. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Example. The example is what you owe them. Everything else...
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Your daughter, one of them. Later on, she brings a guy home. He's like you. Okay? Okay. And confident, not intimidated by you.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
He's respectful, but he's confident, and he's kind of like you. He comes in with a swagger because that's what they're used to, right? Of course. They get married. Five years later, they got two kids. Okay. Okay. She finds text messages. She finds out he's got a handful of girls on the side. Yep.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
You find out through your guys who run the clubs that they report, because guys like us, we're going to be reported back. Everything's coming back to us. You find out he's hooked up with three, four, five girls on the side. Are you confronting him?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
It's been two years since we did it last in Romania, which we came in right after your friendly... meeting you had with BBC, which was fantastic. They treated you royally.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Is this it? Right? Yes. You want to read this? Okay, time to take a break. Andrew Tate in this video gives us the what. Here's the why. Triathcons don't know what marriage is or what it's for because they think traditional means 100 years ago. The white Christian European model of marriage isn't traditional marriage at all. It's a redesign, a redefinition of marriage. It's marriage 2.0.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
We'll see how in a minute. First, we need to admit that marriage isn't instinctive. There are species that mate for life, sandhill cranes and whatnot. Monogamy isn't a struggle for them. It's instinctive. They just do it. Humans do not instinctively mate for life. They just mate. The men mate when they can impress women. Women mate when they are impressed by men.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And a woman of the home in a pack babysit each other's children. Fast forward to the beginning of a Neolithic era, now all of a sudden there are actually something to own. Fields, cattle, buildings, wealth, and men owned the wealth because they were the ones who did stuff you need to do Why the men? Because men had to impress women to mate. All women have to do is mate to be impressed.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
But since property was Neolithic, humans survived, and men had all the property, mating arrangements had to adapt so that a mother could eat and a son could be raised and inherit the father's cattle. If a man put a child in a woman, she was his wife. If he put a child in another woman, she was also his wife. If he put a child in 100 women, he had 100 wives.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And those women and children could rely on his spear for defense and his fields and cattle for support. That's marriage. If you want to understand this context, look at the part of the Bible that says a man who rapes a woman. This is what you were talking about. Got it. Sounds insane if you go through it.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Modern-era Americans were in a communist, but ancient people didn't care about romance and made choice. They were busy trying to... Okay, so by the way, you know Amor? Remember Amor? Did you ever meet Amor or no?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Amor would come from here. Amor's an Armenian man who was my chief compliance officer.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Love Amor. When we sold the company and he got a million dollar check.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
matches exactly who you think he is. Ladies loved him. Armenian guy with an accent who would speak French, and he would call all the girls, darling, darling, hey, darling, and they would just fall in love with this guy. He explained this was the purpose of man. It's purely mating. He would always explain this. That's what it's about. Back in the days, the guys who had it, their job was to mate.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Now, we are living in a different era today. Of course we are. So the mindset has changed slightly on what they're thinking. I added two other things. I added intentionality, accessibility to kids so they can get a hold of you. Love and example. Partly kind of what you're talking about.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Is this a flip?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Go for it, Brian.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So, by the way, debate. Do you ever watch a debate, presidential debate, and you say, man, I'd love to be on the stage debating something? Do you ever itch for it or no? No.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I'm asking the question because I watch you, and we've spent, I don't know how many times we've done this. So this is what? We're on our 12th hour of doing podcasts, and we've only done three. And first to each of them was five hours. We have the conversations together. And I watch you make your arguments, make your case, right? To think how your father shaped you and Tristan's mindset.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
If your father, if I have an impression of your father was like... He was a guy that would teach you sequencing and to do to the enemy what he or she is trying to do to you, okay? Mentally, right? And by the way, part of it is what you have to do when you're raising strong kids. You have to do it because especially in today's society, it's a very tough society.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Was a part of you wanting to run for prime minister in UK a publicity stunt? Were you sick of it or were you itching to make the place better?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Yeah, he came the other day. I think it was a week and a half ago.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Let me ask you this. First podcast we did, you were a Christian.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Second podcast we did, you were a Muslim. Yep. Today, are you still a Muslim? Yes. You are. Okay. So you're talking about UK, right? I lived in Germany at a refugee camp. And I saw the first time I ever got stabbed in my life was by another Afghani kid. It was in Erlangen at a refugee camp. We had a fight. Boom. He took it out. Sounds about right. 11 years old when this happened to me.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And I watched you go through it to see how you were going to maneuver around this. I was watching you very closely. I think you and I even exchanged a couple messages one time privately, you and I. I look at stats. 2023. The top name, the number one name in UK, London, is Mohammed. Correct. Okay. That wasn't the case when you grew up. That was not the case. It's true.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
When you look at stats, 27% of prisoners in London jail are Muslims. Yep. Where the population's only 6%. That's right. You hear the arguments about Sharia law, what they're saying. You hear your fellow who you've spoken to before, you guys have collaborated before, Tommy Robinson, he makes his arguments on what's going on with the... Yep.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
with uh what do you call it with yeah and then i look at some of the tweets here's a couple of the tweets that you had for people reacting to you because you were going strong to what was going on in uk and you said if you don't believe in the way the system that uk has get out i don't care who you are correct you were very clear about it correct you were very thorough about correct the response came back to you from the muslim community and it wasn't pretty they were attacking you right yeah
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And one of your responses here that I have on the tweet, it says, Islam hate comes from Muslims who think they have to defend the disgusting actions that other Muslims commit instead of admitting that a religion can be perfect and people are not. Yep. Muslim must condemn the disgusting child rape openly and verbally or the entire religion will be done.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And then you respond back, Muslims who refuse to understand the crime Islamophobia instead of addressing a serious issue is only going to garner reassessment. These grooming gangs would not be tolerated in an Islamic country. It's time for Muslims to stand up against all. And then there's more of these that I can read.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And even to go back on what happened when the comments they made about Jesus Christ, you remember that as a Muslim, you said, I will never forget these scumbags for disgracing Jesus Christ, right? So you've done both sides.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
But specifically to UK, a once great nation, based on what you're saying, a once 200 years ago, the strongest man, what they produced, who they defended, they were not afraid of going up against the scariest people that everybody feared. They stood up and said, you're not going to do it here. We've seen Dunkirk. We've seen these movies. We've seen these histories. A lot of us got it from movies.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Some of us got it from school. How much has your opinion changed since now you've been a Muslim now for what, two years? I want to say two years, two and a half years, something like that. How much do you link that to the issues that UK is facing?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
That's actually a very good question. Where is she? I don't even know what she does.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
But that's the point, though. That's the point what a lot of people are making. If you want to live in a place that majority is Muslim, go there. You can move there. If you want to live in a place that's got the traditions, let them stay there, right? The whole argument about nationalism, like if you're proud of your country, no, you shouldn't be proud of your country.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So, so how were you able to come to the States? I heard stories. One of them was sorry for your loss of your grandmother. I heard the news and you know, where one part of the story is that they allowed you to come here for the loss of your family that you're here. Another one is you're visiting because now you can, but which one is it? What's, what's the reason why I'll tell you why please.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
But one thing I want to qualify this. You just made a commitment to helping him out with marketing if he says yes.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
That's the point. By the way, Rob, pull up this chart that shows the net migration for UK from 2019 to 2022. Watch this. So you see the orange color is non-EU coming in. The green color at the top is EU coming in. Watch this stat. You see the non-EU people coming in, flat, great. EU goes up, and then look what happens. 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, the amount of people coming in every year from non-EU.
PBD Podcast

So they're letting anybody else come in. Have you ever seen Dominic Tarczynski from Poland? Yes. He's being interviewed and he's being asked about why Poland has the lowest rape, lowest crime, lowest unemployment. And here's his answer, Rob. Can you play this clip?

If he'll pay me, I'll teach him how to deal with the media because clearly he failed. But all I'm saying is if you commit to it, they may get a call for 2028. Just be ready for that.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Tate, just curious. You're probably very qualified. Probably one of the few people in the world qualified to do this because it's not a big number. If you look at how many people in the U.S. convert, Rob, can you go say how many people convert from Christian to Muslim in America? It's not a big number.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
And if you look at how many women left, more women than men, I think the number is such a small... There you go. Roughly 30,000 people a year convert to Islam in the U.S. The difference is they have a lot of kids and they have big families, so that's their strategy. Majority of that 30,000 are women. But you, as a man, an anomaly, you go from Christian to being a Muslim. So...
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I know what it is to be a Christian. I know what it is to be a Syrian Armenian. I know what it is to be an immigrant. I know what it is to be certain things, and I witness it, right? When you were a Christian, what attacks or goods did you see that you're like, man, I never had that?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Because I remember when we spoke when we were in Romania, you said, like, when I was at church, Muslims sent me letters. Christians didn't send me letters. I remember that conversation that happened. Now that you're a Muslim, what is the biggest difference of, and does it kind of make you sit there and say, man, I understand why the Bible teaches tolerance for certain things.

Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Tate, if one day in the future, you're living, you're evolving, you're a guy that's evolving, you got core convictions, but you're evolving. One day gets to a point where you're like, this is not changing. It's going to get worse and worse and worse, nastier on you. Do you ever fear if you ever say, you know what? I'm going to be a Christian again.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Do you ever fear what would happen to you if you ever left the religion of Islam?

Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
I love the breakdown. Where there's no subjectivity. That's the part of the breakdown. See, this is because in this breakdown, the way you just eloquently put together, guess who can be right? Both sides. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Because it's like, you know, no, no, Trump did this, and that's his own. He's this. Maybe he's just being strategic. No, no, no, but that side, they have control of everybody. Maybe they do have a little bit. No, they don't. Maybe they do. That's the subjectivity. The key word you're using here is that. We have to be able to do that more often.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
It was broken down so well the way you just did it right now. I don't mean to interrupt you.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
So what you're supposed to do.
PBD Podcast

50?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
100? Is it 20? Is it 18? Or is it 300? How many is it?
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
Yeah, I mean, it's a point being made. The question becomes, do you think the names are going to be leaked? At this point, I don't think it is.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
The ability to communicate in debate. I can't wait to see this kind of stage debating anything.
PBD Podcast
Andrew Tate Tells America: “I’M BACK!” – The Interview They Tried To Stop | PBD Podcast | Ep. 555
By the way, I don't know if you guys heard about what Trump said about death penalty and drug dealers. Did you see this? No. Very interesting. Yeah, if you could. This is President Trump talking about death penalty with drug dealers. I'm going to get your thoughts on it. Go for it, Rob.

So it's for the love of the game. Now, okay, so let me be devil's advocate. Is it getting into parties? Is it getting you into meetings that maybe you wouldn't have gotten if you wouldn't have given that money? Is it getting you to meet people that's kind of cool?

Also wenn du Geld für diese Leute zahlst und es hat nichts damit zu tun, dass du nichts bezahlt wirst. Du musst also Geld zahlen. Warum zahlst du nicht Geld für die Republikaner? Warum hast du Geld für die Demokraten gezahlt?

"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Sie denken, dass das mit den Leuten zusammenhängt, aber das ist es nicht. Wenn du dabei bist, mit anderen, die auch Geld erzielen, und sie sehen, wie es geht, sind es andere wie du am Inneren, die sagen, was machen wir hier? Was ist da los? Sind es andere Fundraiser wie du?

Unbelievable. She spent time around Kamala, Hillary, every one of them, Obama, Clooney. We covered so many different things. Und wie das Ganze umgegangen ist, habe ich gesagt, was ist passiert, als Präsident Trump die Verabschiedung geäußert hat? Wie war die Reaktion auf der DNC-Seite? Was sagen die Leute? Waren da einige Leute, die feiern? Einiges wurde gespürt.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
That was earnest. So he was asking a question. So how was Doug Imhoff like? Was he charming, charismatic? Can I have something to say about Doug? Sure.

Du wirst von der Sitzung mit ihr überrascht. Und ich habe sofort nach vorne gefragt, die Frage, die viele Leute wissen wollen. Is she straight up? Is she real? Is she that? Is she this?

Yeah, she didn't want to talk to anybody. It was like 43, 45 days. I don't know what the number was. Right after the announcement, for 45 days, she didn't talk to media at all.

"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So Rob, if you look at his hands, to be fair, he's worried to put his hands behind his back. So he's playing it safe. He's been trained well.

"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Denn die Unterschiede zwischen mir und dir sind, dass du da warst. Du hast die Sache gesehen. Ich wusste es nicht sofort.

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
It's interesting. Who did you learn that has the most power behind closed doors that everybody fears, that no one knows about? Who had the most power?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Okay, so we got a special guest here today. Let me tell you who we have. We have Lindy Lee. If you watch television after election, you will recognize the face because she was all over the place.

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So you're telling me, Anita Dunn, this is Anita Dunn, which you're saying she was nice to you.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
And who were the other two you said?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Rob, can you pull them up? Steve? Did you say Ruschetti? Ruschetti.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Political last served as a counselor to the President of Biden, who was also Chairman of Joe Biden in 2020. Ruschetti previously served as Chief of Staff to Biden during the Obama Administration, Deputy Chief of Operations under Clinton. in between stints and democratic ministries were shown to work as a lobbyist. And who was the last one you said?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Got it. So there are they, two of them are loyalists to Biden. One of them, Anita, is a loyalist to Obama.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So grudges. Who were some of the people that Anita protected the grudges from? Like if you're saying he was about grudges, who were some of the grudges with? It has to be with the party, with certain people.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
And next thing you know, she's all over the place on the conservative outlets. Everybody's putting her on. She's coming back and forth, telling stories, different podcasts, different shows. And then we've been talking. Eventually we said, you know, let's sit down and have a conversation together. To give the exact title was Mid-Atlantic Regional Chair at the DNC.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Sie haben Kamala erwähnt. By the way, hat Biden und Jill Kamala als VP gewählt?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Always.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Recently or always? Viciously. Why?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Can you pull that up, Rob, if you're talking about the bus thing?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So, was Kamala chosen as the VP because Biden had to choose it based on what Trump said, based on what Obama said, or he wanted her because she was polling well and let me choose her as a VP instead of other guys.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Well, at one point she got up to 17. I think at one point she was at 14%. And then dropped 1% and never recovered.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So then why would you choose her as a VP?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Who would have been a replacement?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Do you remember that?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So because, so he's that powerful? Kleiberner is that powerful?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So, is James Clyburn a person that's close to... Is he part of Obama's camp or he stands alone on his own?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So he's not an Obama guy.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
The reason why... Okay, so we got the three names. Rob, if you can go back to all the three names. Anita being one of them. Okay, you had Anita as one. Then we had... Vielen Dank. And that's why Mike would give the wrong polls just to make Joe think that he can win, he has a shot to keep running.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So what do they do now though? Like what do they do now to make money? Are they lobbyists?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Yeah, linked to it. Very weird. I'm like, wait, what? I'm like looking her up. I'm like, she's suing, who was this lady? Finally, we had many calls and eventually... Als das Gebäude endlich auf der Auction war, konnten wir einen Weg finden, das Gebäude zu holen. Okay, also Jill Hunter. Hast du mit Hunter überhaupt Zeit verbracht?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Du musst sehr schamlos sein, um das zu tun und zu erscheinen, als ob nichts passiert.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Wie war Obama bei Hunter? Did you see anything?

PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So ads as in, these are ad agencies. The shitty ads that didn't even work.
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
So Obama loses credibility. Would you put him at the top as a person that lost the most credibility in 2024 election?
PBD Podcast
"I Was Inside The CULT!" – Lindy Li EXPOSES DNC Cover-Up, Billion-Dollar SCAM & Obama’s 3rd Term | PBD Podcast | Ep. 554
Lecturing them. Exactly.

So you said something very interesting when you said for Russia in 89, USSR, when Soviets saw, hey, the people want the same freedom that they have, right? Like when I lived in Iran, the way we got movies was bootleg. You didn't get movies because we didn't have access to movies. They're not going to show you the movies.

But we'd see the movies and like, wow, that's what America looks like. I want the American dream. I want to have something like that.

Well, so this is where I'm going, the reason why I'm asking this question. So do you think, because... 89, no social media. You got TV. A couple channels you got in Iran. We have two channels. And it's both ran by the government. So they control propaganda, what to tell you, how terrible America is and the evil empire and all this other stuff.

So when you're seeing social media where kids have access to it in different parts of the world, and some countries are not happy about the fact that they have some social media platforms are available there,

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you think that's maybe the reason why some countries are just sitting there saying, you've seen what happened with Trump in 2016 and him coming out with the campaign that he had and was successful, him beating a Hillary Clinton type of a caliber person, which was, this is not going to happen. This is David versus Goliath. Do you think this is why you're seeing a lot of malaise?

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you think this is why you're seeing the Orban? Do you think this is why you're seeing... Maloney, do you think this is why you're seeing folks that are kind of seeing what's happened in America where other countries' citizens are like, look, I kind of want that. That makes sense to me. These other ideas are not making sense to me.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So it's harder for the establishment today to keep control because of social media versus what it was in 89. Oh, absolutely.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So who, so the establishment, if we go through themselves, like there's a, and I want to get your thoughts on this here, where the concern is. One of the things that Trump did, you saw Jim Acosta just got fired, whatever you want to call him, stepping away from CNN.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
It's a way of saying, look, if you're going to quit, we're okay with it. What do you want to do? Go ahead. We don't have to pay the severance and all this other stuff. So he walks. But he's the OG guy with fake news, right? Your fake news. Your fake news. And then Trump started saying, fake news, fake news, fake news, fake news, fake news. And then, oh, shit. He exposed Trump.

a company Ted Turner started that was a very successful company, CNN. And now they're $400 million down. They're letting go of 200 million people, 200 employees. MSNBC, now for sale. CNN, now for sale. Fox, top 500 of 500 shows since, I think, Election Day, November 5th, have been all Fox shows. And the first one is 507. I think it was somebody that was CNN.

Why do you think, you know, folks who before were like, well, no, this is how you got to think. No, I mean, you know, I got to take this shot. No, I got to do this. No, this is what they're telling me to do. The level of disruption of social media to the establishment and media, not just social media, media,
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
What effects do you think social media has played for people to kind of start saying, wait a minute, I don't believe you. You're full of shit. You just try to play games with me. You lied. No, no, this is not cool what just happened here where an RFK, I'll never forget first time Joe Rogan had Bobby Kennedy on his podcast. He says, I thought you were a kook. I think that's the word he used.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
He says, I thought you were a kook before I had you on here. I'm like, who is this guy? What are you talking about? Vaccines are good for you. All this stuff is good for you. And then, you know, maybe he's got something interesting to talk about. Some of the stuff he's saying is kind of interesting. I'm interested. I'm interested. I'm interested.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
And then now, yesterday, his hearing, one of the guys says, RFK, you know, Robert, would you consider yourself a conspiracy theorist? And he says, you know, a lot of people say that, but was I a conspiracy theorist when you guys were told, we were all told that vaccines, if you take it, you won't be able to give the virus to another person? Did I get that wrong?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
How about the red eye when you guys, the red dye, did I get that wrong? How about when you guys said this? It's kind of going through it, right? Do you think the chokehold, the establishment, media, You know, even our educational system had on the populace. They have now Trump and others have broken and these guys don't know how to get control back of it like they used to once have.

I see the connection as well. You know, obviously I've seen your stuff for many years. You know, you've done stuff that TEDx, TED Talks, 10 million views.

Thank you.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Absolutely.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So Bobby doesn't come out. Tulsi, Elon, Rogin, none of these guys come out. You're saying he still wins without him. I do. I do. I absolutely do. Well, that's so then then OK. Case study wise, the part I'm going with is the following. Here's what I'm trying to see if it happened or not. OK, I'm trying to.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Really put myself in a place to believe what you're saying is the reason why that happened is to say nobody was going to win. It could have been anybody as president. And even if, let's just say, let's completely change it up. Let's say somehow, someway, 2020, Trump steps out. And let's say DeSantis became president in 2020. I'm just making things up here.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
You're saying even DeSantis wouldn't have won on his first term.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
No, no, no, no. Hear me out what I'm saying. Stay with me here. Yes, go ahead. Okay. So Trump wins 2016. Yes. Okay. 2020 election, your COVID starts, whatever, March 10th, they shut down, you know, all this stuff's going on. Great. So... Say in 2020, Trump's like, I'm so sick of this. I'm going to go back to my regular life. Yeah. And guess what? I think DeSantis has done a good job.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
He gets behind DeSantis and DeSantis runs for president. Oh, in 2020, you didn't have the same issue.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So then say DeSantis wins. Mm hmm. He's the president 2021. Yeah. It's his first term. Mm hmm. He's now going to compete for a second term as an incumbent. Right. But he's going to go against who? Kamala, Newsom, Josh, and all those guys. Someone, yeah. You're saying DeSantis would have still lost.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I don't know about that. I get you. All I'm saying is that, look. Well, let's debate it because I want to tear apart my argument because I want to really go with it and tell me, Pat, I still think DeSantis would have lost.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
What I'm saying to you is, well, no, let's just say DeSantis governed the way he governed the state of Florida. If DeSantis governs the way he governed the state of Florida, do you think DeSantis would have won 2024 election?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Let me present it to you and tear apart the argument.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
let's say in a fantasy world trump steps out in 2020 yeah and he says guys you know what i'm not dealing with this i want to go spend time my grandkids and go golf i got 20 more years to live i want to enjoy my life i can't stand politics plausible i'm out yeah desantis comes and i get behind him desantis wins 2021 you know january whatever it is desantis the president there's no j6 okay okay he wins
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Let's go through which events he would have handled in a different way. Okay. So now, do you think DeSantis being a president, Trump still tweets? No. No, meaning do you think DeSantis becomes president in 2021? Do you think Trump is still going to be loud and say stuff? If he's golfing, not as much.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you think DeSantis being president... The border would have been handled the same exact way? No. Okay, so stay with me here. That's important. Okay, stay with me here. So I don't think the border would have been handled the same exact way. So we're in 2008, the unaccompanied alien children, UACs. In 2008, Bush's last year, we had 8,000 UACs. Mm-hmm. Where in 2022, we had 148,000.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
It's not going to happen under DeSantis. Okay. So America was sick of that. Number two, do you think he would have allowed for the amount of abuse that took place for kids to not go to school and leaving kids closed and, you know, been able to control with the funding for some states that are abusing and they're not letting kids go back to school? Probably not.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, probably not on how he would have handled it because he would have probably shared similar policies that he was doing in Florida, crossed the board nationwide.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Stay on COVID. To me, stay on this COVID part. Okay, fine. So now we're talking COVID and school shutdown. OK, if they opposed him and they said, who the hell you think you are? Our job is to protect the kids and we're going to be able to protect it.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
And Mayor Villagrosa, text us if you see people that are driving in the streets because we told people to stay home if they're non-essential and da da da da da. Okay, if they oppose DeSantis and DeSantis is saying this policy, it would have backfired on the progressives still, right? Let's go to the third one. Do you think a war would have happened with Russia and Ukraine? I don't think so.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you think it would have still happened? Absolutely. Do you think Hamas and Israel still happens? Probably, yes. Okay, so you're putting those two as a yes. So meaning you're saying Putin wouldn't necessarily have the fear towards... DeSantis as a president.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, fair. That's fine. Let's stay there. So then the next one, progressives talking about puberty blockers for kids and the LGBTQ and the transgender. We have to make sure we do this. And a Randy Levine, what is his name? Rachel Levine. He's not going to be in there. Again, less of an issue because the Democrats aren't in the White House. You're right. So that's exactly where I'm going with you.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Because the argument I'm trying to make with you is... The incumbent wouldn't have lost here if a DeSantis was president. I hear you. Because I think it's policy-based, not just because all incumbents lost. Whoever it would have been, they would have lost. I don't know if I buy that argument.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Listen, used car prices used to. I couldn't believe a guy offered me to buy my I bought my car for one hundred thousand dollars. Guy offers me one hundred ten thousand dollars two and a half years later. I'm like, what are you talking about? He says, yeah, because the chips, whatever's going on with the chips, you know, all the, you went to a watch store, you're trying to buy a watch.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
There are no watches out there. They're not even making a watch. It's like, we don't have any watch. Everything is empty. So you're right. I'm with you on that part.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, so you said earlier you used the word deep state, and you used one other word. I don't know what word you used before the deep state, but something around the lines of that same community.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you, for somebody that you've spoken at World Economic Forum multiple times, you're a New York Times bestseller, you've sat down with a lot of different people, you've been shown in many different meetings with some people that would be considered globalists, some people would consider them deep state and all this stuff.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you believe at this phase, in 2025, with what we saw the last four years, do you believe there is such thing as a deep state or do you think that's just a term that's thrown around as a... Fear porn word.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Of course they do.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So deep state. Let's stay on that, and then we'll go to Klaus Schwab. So let's talk about deep state. So you think, yes, probably there's a deep state on both sides. Fair. Okay. So the question that I would ask when I think about the deep state, people that don't want to give up the card, right, the control card, whatever you want to call it, right? Mitch McConnell. Mark Zuckerberg.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
How's mom handling you? Like, was mom like, you know, we're taking one of our kids to a soccer camp, right, for IMG. And he's going to be there for a week. Does he stay at the school? Does he stay with us? Does he stay at the campuses? And I said, how does mom handle you being gone at 15? How does she do that? Because moms are Armenians.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I would put the politician guys first. Let's go McConnells, Schumers, Pelosi's, some of those guys that like to have the power and the control, right? So put them there. The story that came out with Barry Weiss and Speaker Johnson, I don't know if you saw that, where she's doing a podcast with Speaker Johnson, and he says, for nine weeks...
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I'm the speaker of the flipping house, and I'm trying to get a meeting with Joe Biden. Everybody's telling me he's not.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
What are you talking about? They're protecting him. Yeah. He's like, hey, President, you signed. I said, I never signed that. What do you mean you didn't sign this? You signed this. I never signed that.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Right, so, but when you have, and then he says, we're sitting in the office, and he says, who's in the room? Hakeem Jeffries, I think he said. He said Kamala Harris and one other name. Schumer, he said, can you guys give him a few minutes to talk to the speaker? And they almost didn't want to leave. And they did. And he spoke with Johnson directly.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So the deep state, Kai, if you sit there and you think about the deep state, again, go to DeSantis. If DeSantis was in, and he's dealing with that, you think he's going to be helping those guys out? Helping the Democrats? No, the deep state. You think the deep state's going to like him? You think the deep state would like a DeSantis? Absolutely. Tell me why.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
The comparison is not even close to it. If you look at the money that goes from special interest to the left and the right, it's not even close. Have you ever looked at the numbers?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Have you seen what kind of numbers are being raised? Have you seen how much money a Trump raised versus a Biden? Have you seen how much of a Trump raised versus a Kamala? Have you seen where $1.5 billion for Kamala in the span of six months disappeared and you know, celebrities are getting paid.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
But you ask him about DeSantis.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Right. He did raise a lot of money. But I'm going back to the idea that why is it that special interest groups like if you go to Rob, can you pull up presidential campaign contributions, like how much they've raised by by president? When you see Biden's number. I mean, go to images, if you could, by president. I don't think that's the one. There's one that shows how much each of them raised.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Your dad died when you were four?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Yeah, and Biden's number is astronomical on what he raised. They're not giving the money to him because they believe on how great of a speech he gives and how great he's going to negotiate.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Now go from 2000. Yeah. Okay. Blue. Blue. Look at Obama. Blue. 2012 Obama. Blue. 2016 Hillary. Blue. Look at that one right there. $3.1 billion. Okay. And then go to 24, Trump against... You know, the number of money going to Republican candidates versus Democratic candidates.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Go a little bit lower, Rob. This is statista. Okay, go and look at the top so you can see exactly what the top is. Top spending of President Kennedy, Majority Leader of the Republican Party from 1984 to spending. This is spending. So when you're looking at that kind of money that's coming in, why is special interest so interested in the Democratic Party? Is it because they're bought?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Is it because they'll take money and do anything for them? Why are they putting more money on the other side? See, to me, when I'm looking at this, and the reason why I went back and asked you a question earlier, where I said, I had Ro Khanna here, I'm like, what is left for you guys? Is it the fact that there's just more money coming to you?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So because there's more money coming to you, it makes it seem like you guys got the policies? Or was the last four years during COVID, so phenomenal because they went so aggressive on the offensive that the American people finally said, oh, I got you. No. We're not doing this anymore. You guys can give as much money as you want to her or him. I'm done. I don't care how much money you give them.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I'm going this way, okay? I don't believe you guys. I think all of you guys are bots on this side. You guys are for sale on this side. The moment Trump wins, Bill Gates has a three-hour meeting with Trump. Zuckerberg goes over there. And they all go. But this is very different, though. And they're all going to donate. And they did.

A lot of them gave a million dollars, two million dollars for inauguration.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So where I'm going is, you know, is this a monumental moment where the Democratic Party took a, got a black eye the way the Republican Party got a black eye in 1960, 1964 with Barry Goldwater, where the Republicans went from having 64% of the, you know, African-American voters voting for Democrat. The other side would be Republican. It went from 64%.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
in 1960 to 92 in 1964, and they lost the black vote until 2024. So do you think this was a catastrophic event for the Democratic Party in 2024? Or no, it's just normal ebbs and flows. It goes back and forth. That's what I'm trying to see, especially for someone like you.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I don't know if I think 2025, the other side thinks the other side is the enemy. I actually don't believe that right now. I believe that the last five years. I don't believe that right now. Let me give you an idea of why, and I'll push back. Bezos? Bezos? Go have a good meeting. Wall Street Journal this week. If you go to WSJ's YouTube channel, go to YouTube channel, they interviewed Bill Gates.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I don't know if you saw that.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Can you imagine like a world where, yeah, this was five days ago. It's actually a very good interview. I watch, I'm like, okay, good.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I mean, again, Bill Gates is... But that's not what I'm saying, though. No, what I'm saying to you is for a guy like him to go to the other side, for TikTok to get kids and younger boys to go to the other side, you're supporting who? to get African-American numbers where the CNN host is watching this guy, giving the stats, and she's like, that can't be right. That's the numbers. Are you joking?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Yes. Even Kamala Harris, the worst with African-American voters for the last four Democratic presidents. That can't be real. That's the real numbers. See, I think this was a place where You know, Rogan said something the other day. I actually really like what he said. He says, you know, he says, I still am not a Republican. He says, I'm still an independent.
PBD Podcast

He says, there's some things I agree with with the left. There's some things I agree with with the right. But to him, he saw more common sense and sanity on Trump's side than the other side. This doesn't mean where two years ago when I'm on his podcast, episode 216, whatever it was, a year and a half ago, you know, he had no plans of having Trump on.

And Lex Friedman is like, I'll never have him on. I'll never have him on. Look, I think it's a bigger win, and there's no question. But I don't think it's a win. I don't think it's just a win. The part I'm trying to ask from you is, I think it's a real shift. Like, you know we haven't had a third-party competitor in a long time since Ross Perot.

Whatever, 19 points, 20 points, whatever the number was. And every year we say, well, we need an independent party. We need a third party. Oh, okay, great. Eventually someone's going to say, I'm a Republican, I'm a Democrat. I think something happened right now. I really think 2020, because when I'm talking to guys right now, who are left, right, center.

I run an insurance company, and we've got agents that are regular guys that do what they do, and so they're not rich people. These are insurance agents that are making two, three, four, five grand, and then we've got some people that make millions. But some of these guys are making $60,000, $50,000, $100,000. You're talking to them.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
It's a very different vibe I get when Trump's name comes up than the level of hate and anger they had towards him in 2018, 19, 20, 2021. They hated this guy. in 2018, 19, they thought he was the Antichrist. And now they're like, look, still don't like the guy, but I don't hate him. I actually think I'm happy he's the president. It's a very different language you hear.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
That's the part where I'm saying where I don't know if we're as divided today

15 years old, that is weird. So did you do a four-year program, like, you know, in a two-year thing? Is that kind of what happened with you because you were going through it fast, or did you do a full four years?

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
But do you know why they don't like the UN? Do you know why they don't like NATO? Do you know why they don't like World Health Organization?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
But that's a different idea than what it was when NATO first got started. Why did NATO first get started? It got started because of Russia, USSR, right? Of course. Why is NATO needed today? And so do they need to counsel? The part with the average person, see what Trump did is, Trump asked interesting questions that prompted everybody to go in search.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay. You got 250 employees. Yeah. You have a board. I own it. So, I mean, I started it. Okay. But do you have a board where you sit and talk to people and have counsel or no? You don't have a board? Okay. So- But 250 employees. 250 employees, it's a legitimate-sized company you've got. It's not a small business. Okay, so what do you do?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Don't you sit there and say, the other day my CTO comes up to me and says, do you know we pay subscription to 900 different things? I said, what? Why? Who signed up for this? Well, you had one employee that kept subscribing to everything. He's no longer here, so we're looking at the credit card. Let me tell you, we're learning so many different things as we're asking questions.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Subscribe, subscribe, subscribe. Asking nobody. Subscribe, subscribe, subscribe. 900 subscriptions to different things. So then I'm asking questions. What are some questions I want to ask? On which credit card were the subscriptions prompted first? Data rolls it, and you'll see boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Oh, shit. 293 came from this one employee. Which one of them were approved?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, maybe we approved those, but what is this? Great. How about this other person? How about that other person? Which one of these do we even know what we use for? Out of the 900, we probably don't even need 50% of them, right? So that person who should be these payments going through, he should approve these. That guy did it without getting the approval.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, we have to change the, you know, and then you change the products, right? Okay. What did Trump do? Trump asked questions that a CEO like you asks. Any reason why we're giving $350 million to World Health Organization with 340 million people living here while China's giving $39 million, give or take, and they have $1.5 billion? Very good question.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Any reason why we're giving more money to NATO to protect them while we're not worried about our borders? Why aren't all these other countries giving? And they're like, oh, shit, nobody's been asking. Guys, let's start giving more money. And useful for them to be giving more money and pushing on that. Absolutely.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
But what I'm saying is, when you're saying we started these things as a form of imposing our values and principles, the challenge then happens is what? Even right now when Trump said, I think we buy 50% of TikTok and 50% of TikTok goes to an owner in the U.S. and I'm going to give you a license. I'm not a fan of that. Why? I don't want the government to own 50% of TikTok. Why not?

How old were you when you went to Russia? I would have been 16. Soviet Union. First time 16th.

I trust it under Trump. I don't trust it under who's going to be president next. I don't trust it on two presidents from now. So even though we're creating these world economic.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
It is important, but go back to what we discussed. So a lot of these organizations that may have started with the right cause have now turned into a – political abuse of their power and, hey, we need more money. Yeah, let me send you more money. Let me send, don't worry about it. I got you. We'll send you more money. We'll send you more money. No, we're not sending you more money.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
And now World Health Organization could potentially be shutting down. They're begging other people for money. Why are we going to do this? We're not going to be doing this. I love that. I love that part of coming in and asking, hey, any reason?

They're conveners of events. Yeah, but you're not a... So the insurance industry has an organization called LIMRA, okay? The guy that was running it was a guy that was very, very powerful in the insurance space. He was a CEO of it, okay? Yeah. What made him powerful? What made him powerful is the fact that every CEO of 40, 50, 100, 200 billion dollar insurance company went to his conference. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Every year. You know how much power that guy had? I don't. A lot of power.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Oh, it's a lot of power though. Yeah. So if you think about... This guy is getting all of these leaders like Larry Fink, Jamie Dimon, everybody from around the world is coming to his conference?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
And the guy that hosts it, that brings everybody together, who says things like the following. Let me just read this quote to you. From who?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Odd is an understatement. Odd. That brings all these... The richest people... Oh, my God.

“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
The guy that's running the whole thing that's inviting all these guys who sell you'll own nothing and be happy. Running the whole thing. That's normal.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
That everybody shows up. Like, he's got influence over. Like, for example, if a guy hosted a conference that said, I want the best fighters in the world to show up to my conference. Who the F are you? But this guy puts it all the fighters show up. Why?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I think it's the last four or five years that a lot of people started looking to seeing. I mean, he said in 2016, right? When he said, you'll own nothing, you'll be happy. And a leader who says you can make a lot of difference, you grab them by X, Y, Z, right? You know, when Trump said that to whatever the Bush guy, right?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
All right, so what is that? Okay. Got it. Inappropriate. Sure. Sure. Another guy says, you know, we got to get the – they send the worst. They send the rapists and criminals and, you know, da-da-da. Oh, my God. Trump just called all these – hey, they – I mean, stuff has been said. People have some bad days. You'll own nothing and be happy is a little bit weird.

Yeah, maybe let me show you a highlight reel of Klaus Schwab being Tony Robbins here. Rob, if you've got a clip. Do you have something you want to show us? Sure. Here's Klaus Schwab.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Even some of the stuff that he's saying.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Nothing. Exciting? No.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I'm actually really enjoying the conversation with you. I will tell you what I think.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Tariffs, because tariff is something you do talk about, right? Because let's talk tariff. So the topic of tariff became hot, I think, the last three months of the election. It's always been talked about, but it's kind of like, well, I think tariff is the... You know, best word in the dictionary. After love and after God and after religion, it's got to be tariff, right?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
He's kind of given a message. And he's been saying that for decades. He's been saying it for decades, but it became hot the last 90 days. Well, if we do this, if we do that.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
It's really low. We only get $80 billion in revenue from tariffs. It's not a big amount of money that comes in.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Let me ask you a question. What would happen if we went to 25 points?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Are you seeing how he's talking about lowering taxes or getting rid of it? Have you heard about him giving the speech on taxes lately? Sure.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Yeah, but what he's trying to do is the concept of external revenue service. You heard him talk about that. Yeah, absolutely. So what would happen? Which we have. I mean, he'll rename the existing organization, but yes. But what would happen if we bumped it up from two points on average to 25 points? Hear me out here. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
And that would be, instead of $80 billion a year, that would put us at around $1 trillion a year of REV that's coming in. That if you want to do business with us, that's the number. Now, obviously, it doesn't work that way. It's not black and white because other things can happen. Substitution effects. Sure.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
No problem. But I think at two points, it's nothing. At two points. If we were to go to 25 and we stay at 25 for four years, hypothetically, and then he flips and he lowers taxes on individuals. on individuals that are paying taxes, how would that sit with American people? Would they sit there and say, wait a minute, you're lowering my federal income taxes? Yeah. You're raising tariffs? Yeah.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Interesting. I haven't done the charts to see how the numbers would work. People on the left said they'll never work. People on the right said it could work. How do you think the average day-to-day worker who hears that message saying, Let's collect the money that we're not collecting with these other guys unless lower taxes would sit.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
First experience. First experience. What else was it for you? Maybe when you left, you're on the flight back, you're talking to your roommate. What are you telling them?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, so this is tariffs here, right? And you said you're not a globalist, but you believe in globalization.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Big difference, okay. So this is the amount of tariffs we used to, revenue used to come in for the U.S. government. Obviously, it's a different world today than it was before. Tiny.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
What we had before versus today used to be 80%, 90%, late 1800s. Then it was 40%, 50% until 1910s. Then we were still getting some tariff. 1930, 1940, and then all of a sudden 1940-ish, 45-ish, goes all the way down to nothing. And we've stayed at that number 2% for a long time until today. So who did that benefit?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
You're saying globalization, if everybody is doing better around the world, it's kind of good. People are making money. They're taking care of themselves. Stress is lower. Crime is going to be lower. Overreaction is going to be lower. Fine. But
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Don't you think for a country that's helped, when you're looking at the numbers of what the deficiency is between how much China makes with us, how much they're making off of us versus us the other way around, don't you think he has the leverage to be able to say, look, we're just increasing everything on everybody because people are trying to do business with U.S.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
I don't know if you can say it because I think you're going to upset somebody. No, it's not that. Dinner will be canceled. I can say whatever I want. I can. I really can. I want to protect you. Don't say everything you want to say.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
No, I recognize that's 1925, but it's also not 1980, 1999, 2000, where we keep doing it for everybody else and we're just kind of leaving that money on the table.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, I just found where Yuval Hari was considered the brain of Klaus Schwab.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
The idea was the fact that he could be his replacement. This is in the book, Technocracy. The Hard Road to World Order by Patrick Wood.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay, you read the book. You're thinking the guy's replacing him. No, you're not. No, you're thinking he's his guy. Like, he's the brain.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
If somebody calls, you know, me the brain of... Let's just say this guy's the brain. Hey, that guy could be his replacement. That's how the conversation of Yuval Hari came in this book. Okay, so I'm glad that you agree with me on that one. No, no, it's not I agree with you on that one. I'm telling you that's what the discussion was about.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
That's not credible. That one is not. You're right about that one. But the other one is this is what prompted that conversation. But the tariff conversation.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Right. So going back to, and, you know, you've read Sapiens, I've read Sapiens. Everyone's read Sapiens, yeah. But going back to tariffs, okay, my brain goes to a different place. You know, there's a camp that thinks very highly of Nixon. And Nixon did this, you know, a lot of people, oh, my God, you know, water getting all this up.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
But then if you really think about it, this guy was a revolutionary guy. Was it good getting off of gold standard? I don't know. Was it good, you know, opening up China? I don't know. Did we strengthen China? Did we benefit more from China being open in the economy to be able to get cheap labor, all that stuff? Did the capitalists in America benefit? That's a good question.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
But that's exactly where I'm going with that. And now that we were reading five years ago, made in China 2025, they're going to be the world, didn't happen. Didn't happen. Eight years ago, not even five years ago, eight years ago. Didn't happen. Didn't happen. Okay. So they're trying to sell themselves as they're doing very good. They have a net negative migration rate.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
They're losing people leaving, right? Billionaires are trying to get a way of getting their money out. They can't. It's very hard to do that.

Population is shrinking. They got the whole, you know, the... Population distribution. Totally. It's terrible. Horrible. You know, the whole one baby rule really backfired on them in a big way. Another three doesn't matter. No, it really messed it up. But going back to now. So maybe, maybe...
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Trump and his administration is trying to look at an opportunity here, saying, okay, well, you're saying we can't tariff everybody and go this way. No problem. If we continue going the way we're going right now, that shit's not working either. We're in $33 trillion of debt. We're not doing things in a way that's proven that our system is also working if we go this route.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So what if we do a massive disruption to the system? What if we do? Would it shake things up? Maybe. Would it increase people's median income? Because I sit there and I wonder, I'm like, how are people going to buy these houses? Today we had Byron Donalds here. Byron Donalds, you know who he is. And he says, half the battle with homeowners insurance is the fact that houses cost so much.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Salary is not really going that much higher. Houses just skyrocketed the last four years. Homeowners insurance. I don't want to have freaking homeowners insurance. I'm a homeowners insurance company. I don't want to be in California. I don't want to be in Florida.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So 2019, 2018, what was it like? What was the biggest difference from 18 to when you went in 86?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Your interpretation is the fact that they're saying they want government to do what?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Do you think Trump wants that or no?
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Okay. So it's interesting you say that because just this week, remember the whole deep seek? This happened four days ago. Of course.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So what do you think about deep seek? And what do you think about, you know, Chad GBT? He says, look, you know, I kind of like it. Six million dollars out here. They're building four. And, you know, let's see what happens. I think a little bit of competition is good. where it's interesting how he dances with this, right? Because that's not a tariff position.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
So it's almost like he is thinking steps ahead on how to use a certain leverage to negotiate both sides. He will lean on allowing, in my mind, using deep seek to possibly get... the local guys that have a lot of power, the NVIDIA, the Sam Altman, the Chad GPT folks, to be like, hey, it's such a very, very interesting.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
He said, well, you know, right now there's a lot of people that are participating and wanting to buy TikTok. We got Larry Ellison and, you know, Elon, but also Microsoft. Microsoft, too. You saw that. That just came out yesterday or two days ago.
PBD Podcast
“Trump Would’ve Won Without Musk” - Ian Bremmer DEFENDS Davos, Deep State & Global Elite Agendas | PBD Podcast | Ep. 542
Yeah, but you see, I think if I would ask you that question, in 2017, 18, let's just, if I ask you that question in 2016, yeah, 2017, I think you would have said Obama. That's right. I don't think you would have said Trump in 2017.

One is the example, okay? The example you set, how you live, you're setting an example, how you live. And then the other one is getting people to do things they typically wouldn't do on their own.

So guys, a few weeks ago, I went on a rant about Pierre Polivier in Canada. And I called out the fact that he doesn't want to go sit with anybody.

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
So, Aaron O'Toole... Yeah, was a leader before him. And then it was Andrew Scheer.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
You lost your leadership against him. In 2017. So when they chose him, you said, I'm out. And you started your own thing.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
He's saying that to you face to face in a one-on-one meeting. Is this public information when he said this to you? Yeah, but I'm putting that public. You've never said this before. So in one-on-one he's telling you, because your policies are not popular, I won't take any of you. Because he wants to be a prime minister.

Okay, also sie sind nahe Freunde. Wiederum, ich versuche, smarter zu werden. Ich kenne keine kanadische Politik. O'Toole, ist er nahe mit Pierre oder nicht?

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ist er ein Name in der Politik in Kanada oder nicht wirklich? Niemand sagt O'Toole. Nein, nein, nein. Er hat keinen Entschluss, er trägt keinen Gewicht. Ja, ja, ja. When was the last time you and Pierre had interaction together?

Paul-Yves folgt also seinen Fußstufen. Ja, absolut. Das ist gut zu wissen. Ein paar Dinge, was du mit der Immigration gesagt hast. Ich möchte dir etwas zeigen, was mir bei der Immigration schockierend war, als ich die Daten hergestellt habe. So I looked at what countries most residents, new permanent residents are coming into Canada, because the number starts around 2022.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Rob, if you can show up the data that shows the spike in immigration, it's that one right there. So you look at this, the net international migration from 1952 to 2023, you're getting some people coming in, maybe 200,000 on average, 100,000 on average, all of a sudden, boom. 1,25 Millionen. Und ich habe die Zahlen geschaut. Im Jahr 2022. Ja.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
The number one country that migrants, immigrants came in from, 27% was Indians, 118. China is number two. Then Afghanistan, Nigeria, Philippines, France, Pakistan, Iran, US, then Syria. This is 2022. 2023, India, China, Philippines, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Pakistan, Cameroon, Eritrea, Iran, US. 2024, India, Philippines, China, Cameroon, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, France. Okay.

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
He's just waiting for this thing to happen to him and is automatically going to be handed everything over. And in the last couple of days, he's made a few comments about Trump and retweeted a video that we'll watch here together and get a reaction to. While that happened, A lot of Canadians were not happy with me. A lot were very furious with me.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Then I pulled up a number just to kind of see. Yeah. In Canada in 1991, according to the Canadian census, the Muslim population in Canada was 0.9%. The Muslim population today in Canada is 5%, okay? That's based on your census that you have. You're right about it. And then the other number that was also shocking is in 2023, population grew by 1.27 million in Canada.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Of the people that grew, the number of kids... die ihr hattet, die zu den 1,27 Millionen zahlten, waren nur 2,4%. 97,6% waren Leute, die aus anderen Ländern kamen. Das ist nicht unbedingt ein Wachstum. Manche würden das eine Invasion nennen. Eine Veränderung. Eine Veränderung könnte einer sein. Wie unterschiedlich sind eure Policies gegenüber Polyvier, wenn es um das kommt?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
But a lot were also in agreement saying, you know what, please hold them accountable and challenge them to get out there. But throughout that time, I ran a poll and a name was brought up to me. And they said, you have to look into Maxime Bernier. And I said, okay, great. You know, I started watching videos, content, we started following each other.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ja, das macht Sinn. Und zum Beispiel, wenn du mit dem Publikum in Kanada sprichst, welche Vergleiche machst du? Welche Komplimente? Nämlich, sagen wir, wenn ich ein Haus kaufe und sage, ich will dieses Haus für 900.000 Dollar kaufen, aber Herr Realtor, was sind die Komplimente auf dem Gebäude? Der Kerl daneben verkaufte für 820.000. Die Haus daneben verkaufte für 817.000.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Die Haus daneben verkaufte für 805.000. Das ist nicht wirklich ein 900.000-Dollar-Haus. Das ist wirklich ein 815.000-Dollar-Haus. Okay, gut, ich bekomme Komplimente. Welches Land, wenn Sie schauen, was sich Kanada in den nächsten 5, 10, 15, 20 Jahren verändern kann, was sehen Sie, wenn sie ihre Immigration-Polizei nicht verändern?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Yeah, and the question, I want to come back to this, because Canada is the number two country in lumber in the world. I think you guys are behind Russia. And the average house right now is $786,000. Who the hell can afford that? Let's come back to that. But I want to talk to you still on case studies.

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
When I was looking at what Poland did, Dominik Tarczynski, where he said, nobody can come here, they're not for immigration, and they don't want to go by the demands that EU has with what happened with UK, of course UK Brexit. There's a fellow who had a video that went viral in Canada talking about Sharia law. I want to share this with you.

About this specific topic? Because the Muslim population in Canada has grown from 1991 to now from 0.9% to 5%. That's 500%. That's a big growth that they've had. Is that a concern?

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
I respect the fact that you're doing it. I think one of the things we watched in the US, what happened, was that Bobby Kennedy went to all the podcasts. Vivek went to all the podcasts. Trump, with his son Barron, saying, hey, Dad, let's go. He went to all the podcasts, right? And Kamala didn't go. And Ron DeSantis went on ours.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
But look, that's the after... By the way, you mentioned Stephen Harper, right? You said Stephen Harper. So Stephen Harper was Prime Minister from 06 till 15, right? Go back to that chart, Rob. So if you go from 2006, declined from what it was, what did he do to lower crime the way that he did in Canada?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Wow. Okay, so let's go back to real estate. Real estate in Canada, you said the current, you know, we've been building 250,000 on average, the last houses, I think the number was, whatever it was 10 years ago, it's what you're doing today. It's the same number today. It's the same number today, yes.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
But the average property value right now in Canada, we looked at the number, was $786,000 for single family homes. That amazes me.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
What does it say here? Right there. So if you look at the average selling price of a home in Canada increased by 0.1%, year over year 709, the average selling price of a single family home in Canada increased to 786.

Wenn man sich die Menge an Verbrauchern und Dingen anschaut, warum hat niemand in den letzten 10 Jahren geäußert, investieren zu können, um mehr zu bauen, um die Preise zu reduzieren, sodass wenn eine neue Familie verheiratet wird, Kinder zu haben, sie nicht bezahlen können, um 786.000 Euro zu kaufen.

So walk me through the fear that conservatives have in Canada being so frightened of liberals holding them hostage.

Was ist also deine Lösung auf zwei Dinge? Was machst du, um die Immigration zu lösen? Und was machst du, um die Kindheit zu erhöhen? Denn die Wirtschaft ist das, was du für Familien umsetzen musst, um Kinder zu haben. Wie wirst du diese zwei Probleme lösen?

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
How do you, because when I watch how he manages the relationship with President Trump, and you see President Trump saying what he's saying about, you know, Mark Carney, Und wie bist du es, mit dem Präsidenten zu arbeiten, wenn der Präsident sagt, Kanada ist der 51. Staat? Bist du überhaupt überhaupt offen auf die Idee, Kanada ist der 51. Staat? Oder ist er einfach nur mit dir zu tun?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Das ist so, wie du es beobachtest. Aber was ist dein Ansatz? Sagen wir mal, du wirst ein Premierminister werden. Was wird dein Ansatz sein, wenn es um den Präsidenten Trump geht?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
So, with regards to him getting closer to Carney, when he's talking about coming to tariffs, what are Canadians saying that Mark did to get Trump to feel more comfortable doing a deal with him than with Pierre? Why is he feeling more comfortable with Mark instead of Paul Olivier?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
And isn't Mark's background like, was he with the Bank of London? Who was he with? He had a financial background, right? Goldman Sachs, Bank of Canada. So he knows how to make deals. So maybe Trump feels more comfortable talking to a business guy than a guy that's a career politician like Pierre.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Got it. That's interesting.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Hat Pierre eine Geschichte davon, dass er Deals gemacht hat und ein Diplomat war und mit anderen negotiert hat und Leute aus der Altstadt getroffen hat, um mit ihnen zu sprechen und Deals zu machen, oder nein? Was ist sein größtes Erlebnis? Was ist Pierres größtes Erlebnis?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Do you see it, Robert? No. Junior Minister under President Stephen Harper.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ja, ich versuche nur herauszufinden, was sein größtes Erfolg ist. Warum ist er von seiner Partei lieb, respektiert wie er ist?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Got it. Yeah, I just typed it up. It says, becoming a leader of the conservative party, 2022, 68%, opposition to carbon tax, advocating for economy and housing reform, is axe the tax and build more homes.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
So you know when President Trump talks about 51st State, making Canada the 51st State. I sit there at first, I'm like... Is he trolling? Is he serious? Is he playing? Is he trying to get under your skin? Is he trying to make you upset? Let's just say he is, right? And then I sit there and I go, don't put the tariffs. It's not fair to this. It's not fair to that. And you go to military expenditure.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
You said it earlier a minute ago. Canada's military expenditure is 1.2, 1.3 percent. Nothing, right?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Who is the leader at the top?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Janine Corrigan, ist das die?

Ist das die? Jenny...

Jenny, also sie war... Sie war die erste Frau, die da war.

Wie schwach ist dein Militär? Ich meine, Kanada ist nicht bekannt für das Militär, oder?

“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Du bist 28. Du bist hinter Ländern wie Algerien, Thailand, Singapur. Griechenland ist right next to you, meaning they're ranked 30th, Singapore is 29th, Thailand is 25th. So can I say, so if I'm, when I hear that, you know what it makes me think about? It upsets me.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Weil es mich daran erinnert, dass Kanada, nur weil sie Nachbarn mit Amerika haben, und Amerika ist so stark im Militär, sie müssen nicht in den Militär investieren, also wisst ihr was? Niemand wird uns attackieren, weil Amerika unser Nachbar ist. Sie werden uns nicht messen. Also das macht mich, wenn ich Trump bin, zu sagen, ja, deshalb wirst du das 51. Staat werden.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Oder ich werde Tarife auf dich setzen. Also ich bin tatsächlich wirklich gespannt, wie die Negotiation mit Trump läuft. die nächsten 3, 6, 12 Monate, weil wenn alles, was ihr produziert, wenn wir es in Amerika machen können und diese Jobs zurückbringen, und er setzt seinen Fuß runter und Marc, Pierre, jemand fummelt, das könnte für die Kanadier katastrophal sein.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Absolutely catastrophic for Canadians.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
You know, I just had a conversation with Ron Paul, like right before you. Ron Paul and I did a one-hour podcast together.

He's phenomenal, yeah. And, you know, when you ask him, what is it to be a Libertarian? Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Du fragst, was ist es, ein Amerikaner zu sein? Ich bin stolz, ein Amerikaner zu sein, oder zumindest weiß ich, dass ich frei bin, richtig? Und dann kannst du Amerika verkaufen, richtig? Was bedeutet es, ein Kanadier zu sein?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
What does that mean? But not not. What are you guys? What is Canadian?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Aber was ist es, ein Kanadier zu sein? Ich weiß noch nicht, was es ist, ein Kanadier zu sein. Was ist es, ein Kanadier zu sein?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Wer sind die Helden der Kanadier? Wenn du mir drei Helden nennst, zum Beispiel als ich in Brasilien war und ich mit Jair Bolsonaro gesprochen habe, würdest du Senna hören, Pele, Jair Bolsonaro und andere Namen hören, richtig? Wer sind, natürlich könntest du Kretzky nennen, aber wer sind die Helden in Kanada? Top 3.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ja, ja.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ja, und so, so, you know, a part of that with the culture, the stronger the culture is, the more pride there is to protect it. The weaker the culture is, the more it allows President Trump to come in and say, hey, if you guys are not that proud to be Canadians, why don't you become American? I can see how he's doing that now.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
But let me ask you this question, because, you know, a lot of times you'll hear, well, we're independent from UK. We're independent from UK. We're independent from UK. We're independent. I'm sorry, from France. We're independent. Right. With those guys. But then, Dein Kearney hat einfach mit dem König gesessen. Didn't that just happen a week ago?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Why is it that? Even though it's like, no, we are our own, but let us go and meet with King Charles after Trump threats. It was kind of like, hey, King Charles, can you protect us from Trump because Trump is doing this? Yeah, we're not part of the UK. Hey, because he's trying to bully us. Why is that? Because the impression to me is like you're running to daddy to protect from a bully.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Is that the wrong impression or the right impression?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ja, wenn ich das sehe, wie schaut sich Kanada an, wie schauen sich Kanadier an den USA und Frankreich an? Ist es freundlich? Was ist die Beziehung dort?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Für mich ist es der Grund, weshalb ich Trump und Bobby Kennedy so sehr respektiere. Irgendwann, irgendwo, wo auch immer. Und ich habe keine Angst vor dem leftistischen Medien. Und in Amerika musst du das respektieren. Und wenn du Kamala oder andere Leute anschaust, war es nicht irgendwann, irgendwo, wo auch immer. Es musste kontrolliert werden. Hier sind die Fragen, die du mir stellen musst.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Is Carney putting that on the table right now?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Justin Trudeau, right? I mean, we haven't even talked about him yet. Justin Trudeau, have you had any interactions with him? How different is he behind closed doors than he is when the camera is on? Or is it the same person?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ich kann das nicht, aber er kann es. Er hat das vor ein paar Wochen getan.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
What was his father known for?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Du solltest das fragen. Nichts mehr als das. Ich möchte den Clip spielen, den wir vorhin gesprochen haben. Hier ist Pierre, er spielt einen Clip. Rob, wenn du zu meinem Twitter-Account gehst, gehst du ein bisschen höher, ein bisschen höher, bleibst du. Ich glaube, es ist der eine oder zwei oben. Geh zwei oben, zwei oben, nein, der andere Weg, Rob. Geh zwei oben, genau da.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Sein Vater, ja. Ja, ich schaue es mir hier an. Liberalisiertes Verheirat, Abortionen, Homosexualität, 1967 als Minister. Also jetzt, mit dem aktuellen Zustand der Dinge, habe ich die Zahlen angeschaut. Ich habe ein paar verschiedene Leute angerufen. Und einer der Kollegen, mit dem ich gesprochen habe, er hat gefragt, anonym zu bleiben, aber du weißt, wer er ist.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ich habe ihn gefragt und gesagt, was ist die Unterschiede zwischen Pierre und Max? Ich bin gespannt, was er sagen wird. Wenn ich sage, wer diese Person ist, er war in der Politik involviert. Nein, was ich sage, ist, dass du weißt, wer es ist. Er sagt, kurze Antwort, Pierre wird Premierminister werden. Max wird wahrscheinlich nicht sogar seinen eigenen Platz gewinnen.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Aber grundsätzlich ist Max ein echter Libertarier und hat immer gewesen. Pierre ist ein echter blauer Konservatist. Glaubst du an ihn? On the politics at the end. The libertarian and the true blue conservative.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Geh nach Ben & Jerry, geh nach Ben & Jerry, es ist genau da. Also geh zu Pierre, wenn du könntest. Und lass mich erst mal lesen, was er sagt. And then I want to get your commentary on it. So he says, last night President Trump endorsed Mark Carney. Why? Because as Trump said, he's easier to deal with and knows that I will be a tough negotiator and always put Canada first.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Es ist interessant, denn wenn ich die Wähler frage, wie groß die People Party in Kanada ist, sehe ich ungefähr 4,9 Prozent, 5 Prozent.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ja. Ich meine, wenn du durch die Kommentarsektion gehst, Du hast viele Leute, die dich da hochladen wollen. Du hast eine große Unterstützung vom Publikum in Kanada. Was denkst du, muss passieren? Und zum Beispiel in Kanada, ist es ähnlich wie in Brasilien, wo Pierre, wenn es dazu kommt, zu gewinnen, muss er dich für Karni gewinnen oder nein?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Ist das so, wie es funktioniert, dass du da reinmachst, um ihn zu helfen oder nein?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
He won't say that?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Carney is weak and would cave to Trump's demands just like he did when he moved his company headquarters from Canada to New York City. Canadians don't want a weak and conflicted leader. They want a strong Prime Minister who will put Canada first. So now let me play the clip. Here's Trump. Rob, if you can play the clip of Trump, what he says here. Go for it.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
If that's the case, that's such a lame and weak position. I mean, look at this here from January, Polymarket. Look what Pierre was. Go to January, Rob, if you could. Can you zoom all the way back? Where you were, right there. Zoom in a little bit. Pierre, according to Pauli Marquet, was at 90%, Carney was at 12%?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Oh, Trudeau is there as well, 3.6% to win. Rob, is that what you're running? And then now, if you come to today, Pauli Marquet says what? He went from 91 to 41. Is this really true that he's dropped 50 points of popularity?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Yeah, but that's Pierre's fault for not wanting to go and talk to other people.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
I hope he does.

Das ist sehr wichtig, weil es für uns nicht ein großes Problem in Amerika ist. Wir wissen nicht, was das bedeutet. Aber da ist es wie in der EU. Du versuchst, Geschäft zu machen, und es ist ein bisschen kompliziert.

When I posted this, Rob, go back to my tweet, because I want to show you what people said. Just go to the bottom of the comments to show what Canadians said. So some people said, yeah, right, if you can go lower. I've been to Canada, Maxim Bernier is the only politician in Canada that can actually understand this. Pierre has never had an actual job outside of politics.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
That's crazy, yeah.

Well, Max, I'm going to give you final thoughts. This has been a pleasure talking to you. I appreciate you for coming out. Thank you. I love your energy for the audience that's watching this.

He's a world economic forum unit party through and through. He's a useless whatever, whatever politician. He's no leader. You're wrong here, Pat. Trump is doing Polivier a favor by saying he'd prefer liberals. This is an endorsement for the PP. His policies do exactly what Trump wants. Energy, pipelines, oil. Canada's got a lot of those things. Polivier and Carney are hood ornaments.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Do you have any suggestions? On a serious note, thanks for saying PM and not governor. Patrick, I think Trump understands this endorsement, especially framed in a term of Who's right here?

Okay, also lasst uns das durchgehen. Was ist das Prozent der Konservativen in Kanada? Ja, spezifisch die Konservativen. Was würdest du sagen?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
That are conservatives.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Okay, so of the 40%, and by the way, conservative... Conservative, including us, we are the real conservative. For sure, you and Pierre, whatever party, those two conservative party, you're saying there's about 40% of them. Of the 40%, of voters in Canada that are conservative, okay? What percentage of them like Trump?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
What does it mean to be a Canadian?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
Okay, so for his base, out of the 40%, you said 25% like Trump, 75% don't like Trump. Okay, from your base... 50% like. At least 50%.
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
You're assuming. So it could be 60, 70%. Yeah, yeah. Okay, from the conservatives that don't like Trump, why don't they like? What about Trump do they not like in his policies?
PBD Podcast
“Poilievre Is Afraid!” – Maxime Bernier: The Truth About Trudeau, Carney & Canada’s PM Election | PBD Podcast | Ep . 564
I still don't know what it is to be a Canadian. What is it to be a Canadian? That is just absolutely embarrassing.

I think it was Rodrigo Constantin, if I'm not mistaken, right? Auf meiner Seite haben wir den dritten Sohn von Jair Bolsonaro, Eduardo Bolsonaro, der ein Kanzler geworden ist, vielleicht der beliebteste Kanzler 2018, wenn ich mich nicht verletze, wo du eine massive Folgen-Loyalität hast. Die Leute sind interessiert, was du tust, aber du bist auch in der Politik involviert.

FBI, Soros und Geheimdienst und eine große Zensur in Brasilien.

Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Can I read this? He was just put in investigation. He was? Let me read this. Go a little lower up so I can read it from right there. The first two paragraphs. The US government's Federal Bureau of Investigation, Soros and the Supreme Court of Brazil claim to be defenders of free speech and democracy.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
The mission of the FBI is to uphold the US Constitution, whose First Amendment prohibits government limits on freedom of speech. Soros and his son Alex, who runs this philanthropic foundation, claims to want open societies where people are free to express their views. And the Supreme Court of Brazil claims to uphold the Brazilian Constitution commitment to freedom of expression.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
But now a months-long investigation reveals that the FBI has helped Brazil censor its citizens. The Soros Open Society Foundation is spending heavily to promote censorship in Brazil. And Brazil has a secret judicial... So, there's your answer. So, so they're getting a, but let me ask another question.

Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
You know, sometimes when somebody flips and you look at this person like, this guy's reasonable, he's good. You don't see him like a weird guy. And all of a sudden, boom. And you realize somebody had something on him behind closed doors. The story about the fact that he was linked to the plane crash with the Supreme Court, you know, the old justice theory.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
And I'm like, yeah, I don't know if their story. Was ist da passiert? Was ist dahinter? Vielleicht, vielleicht nicht. Einige Leute sagen 80 Prozent bogus. Es gibt keine Art und Weise, dass es dahintersteckt.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Und dann hörst du über die Geschichten mit ihm, der mit dem, was er es nennt, dem Primero Comando de Capital Gang Headquarter in Sao Paulo, begonnen hat, falsche Online, als er Stadtsekretär der öffentlichen Sicherheit war. War er mit der Gang verbunden? Waren da Leute, die er unterstützt hatte? War da etwas davon, was mit Alexandro ging?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
mit deinem Vater, was sehr interessant ist, das zu sehen, und es ist toll, dich anzusehen. Dann haben wir Nicolas Ferreira, der, übrigens, ich versuche zu sehen, ob ich einen guten Beispiel geben kann, wo es in Amerika Sinn macht. Also 2022, er gewinnt, bekommt die meisten Voten. Sie nennen es MP, wir nennen es Kongressmann. Ich denke, es ist relativ nah dran.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Was he a lawyer that maybe represented some former criminals before? Because sometimes lawyers are like that. Ich kenne Lawyer, mit denen ich gesprochen habe, die Weinstein repräsentieren. Wir hatten einen Lawyer am anderen Tag auf dem Podcast. Es war Diddy's Lawyer vor Rob. Wer war sein Lawyer, wenn du dich erinnerst?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Also er war ein Lawyer wie das. Und übrigens, ist da eine Verbindung mit ihm und Marcolo Camacho? Ist da eine Beziehung zwischen den beiden? Mit ihm, Playboy Russo. Ist da etwas da? Wir wissen es nicht.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
So he's saying he's facing 232 years in jail. Okay, Marco Camacho. Is he in jail right now? Yeah, he is. And is he the Pablo Escobar of the PCC?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
He is. It's a fair assessment. And there's no link between the two relationships at all.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Ja, und dieser Typ hat 18, 19 Millionen Follower. Ich glaube, du hast 11 Millionen auf Insta, wenn ich mich nicht verletze. Du hast etwa 5 Millionen auf TikTok. Du hast Millionen von Leuten, die dich folgen. Du bist laut, du bist vertraut, du bist assertiv und du wirst getötet von vielen Leuten auf der anderen Seite in Brasilien. Ich denke, es ist fair zu sagen.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
While he's in jail. Who intercepted it? The police. The federal police. So why 2022? Who's president? Bolsonaro? Bolsonaro. Got it.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Moraes took it down. On which platform? I think it was Instagram.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
What percentage of Brazil will have access to this interview right now on YouTube in Brazil? What percentage? Ich weiß nicht, vielleicht 10, 15 Prozent. 10, 15 Prozent. Nun, alle von ihnen haben Zugang.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Ich verstehe es völlig. Aber wo ich mit dem gehe, ist, wie viel Prozent, wie heute, ich habe einen Tweet gepostet und die Frage, die ich da gestellt habe, was, what do you think about Alexandre from Brazil? Is he the most powerful man in Brazil? And it is the least liked, commented post I've had In a year that I posted with this.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Und Gustavo, den wir hier haben, Gael, ist wahrscheinlich derjenige, der das beste Englisch hier spricht. Nur um es zu wissen, er leitet eine Schule in Brasilien. Ich denke, er hat 2013, 2014 angefangen. Und du bist auch sehr gut, wenn es um die Haut der Menschen geht. Also es ist toll, dass du hier bist. Es ist ein sehr interessanter Publikum, den wir hier haben. Also lass uns direkt dazu kommen.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
I don't know whether it's because my audience could care less about Brazil or maybe it's because the audience is sitting there and certain people who are interested in this don't see it. Then I went on your platform and I noticed, no, when you guys tweet, you guys get a lot of traffic. You got a lot of traffic. So it means people from Brazil are seeing your stuff.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Maybe my audience is not interested right now in what's going on with Brazil because I'm not Brazilian. I'm not talking about it. I retweeted it. Please guys, repost it. I'm going to retweet it right now. So what I want to know is, what I want to know is, I want to know if he is who he is, then you're telling the story of whatever Camacho, whatever his, from Marcolo, I think, right?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Marcolo Camacho, Marcola Camacho. Okay. And then, did Marcola Camacho der damals im Gefängnis war, ist Lula auch im Gefängnis im Jahr 2022? Ist Lula im Gefängnis im Jahr 2022? Nein, er war nicht im Gefängnis. War er und Lula jemals zusammen im Gefängnis? Waren sie jemals im selben Gefängnis? Nein, nicht im selben Gefängnis. Sie waren nie im selben Gefängnis.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Und das ist beurteilt, dass Leute das wissen. Es sind zwei separate Gefängnisse.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Hat Lula oder Marcola in der Vergangenheit jemals ein Verhältnis zusammen gehabt?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Lula has been a great community organizer, speaker, rallying. He's going up. He's a great speaker, energized. He knows how to get people to say it's not fair, what they're doing to you. He's like an AOC, right? He used to be, nowadays he has no more audience. Another weird thing that's happening. But now he's giving money to them, socialism.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
So now he's getting people to be like, hey, this guy's a nice guy, he's giving us money. If you can pull up the statistic number on the kind of money being spent by the government, look at the rise here. Zoom in a little bit. This is from 2007 to 2029. Look at the number there on the bottom. So it's gradually climbing, nothing insane. 2021, 2022, Lula goes in, look at the spending the next year.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Boom, boom, skyrocketing. They go up from $700 billion, they go up $160 billion in spending the next year, 120, within two years. He goes from 730 billion budget to billion dollars. You're talking about an increase of 300 and whatever, 260 billion dollars that they increase. What do you do with that? I'll give you this. I'll give you that. More entitlement programs. So you win the votes.

Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
This is kind of like Biden right now is trying to give money to all these college and forgiving. It's an effective strategy. But Dann führst du mich zu diesem. Kannst du den einen nehmen, als die Inauguration von Lula, richtig? Er gewinnt. Und dieser Mann hier geht durch. Ihr wisst natürlich, wer er ist. Ich musste schauen, wer er ist. Ich weiß.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Ja, wenn du den Namen nicht sagen willst, kann ich ihn nennen. Benedito Goncalves, richtig? Jetzt, an dem Zeitpunkt, wer ist Benedito? Ist er ein mächtiger Mann?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Mein Interesse. Dieses Video-Podcast wird auch in der Sprache übersetzt werden, damit alle das sehen können. Es wird überall sein, Englisch und die nativsprachige Sprache, die sie in Brasilien sprechen. Ich möchte mit diesem anfangen. Letzte Zeit, als wir zusammen waren, war ich nicht stark involviert in der brasilianischen Politik.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Okay, spiel diesen Clip. Also, das ist die Enauguration. Es wird erklärt, Lula gewinnt. Der Mann, der in der Mitte sitzt, der sitzt direkt über dem Emblem. Du siehst einen blöden Mann da drüben, das ist Moraes, richtig? In der Mitte. Schau, der Mann Benedito wird von der Linken laufen. Er kommt nach rechts. Spiel diesen Clip, Rob. Er tappt die Schulter und wispert etwas in die Ohren.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Hör auf. I asked some of the friends here that speak the language. He says, mission accomplished. Mission given, mission accomplished. Mission given, mission accomplished. And he's saying it to Moraes. Let me ask you, is he telling Moraes that you gave me the mission, I helped you accomplish the mission, or is it the other way around? That Benedito said...
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
We gave the mission, we accomplished it together.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
I delivered for you. So his loyalty is to Moraes. We don't know.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Aber ich möchte wissen, warum und was mit diesem Kerl passiert ist. Wenn Sie ihn aufschreiben können, Alexandre, Sie nennen ihn Demorais, glaube ich, richtig? Alexandre Demorais. Richtig. Ich zeige euch ein Bild von ihm. So, nach einigen der Bedingungen, die wir auf unserer Seite machen, war dieser Kerl ein Lehrer. Er ging in eine Gerichtsschule.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Und Morais akzeptiert, dass er uns zensiert hat, weil er seine Anforderungen hat. Können Sie zurückkehren zu diesem anderen Mann? Können Sie zurückkehren zu Luis Roberto Barroso? Ja. So, Barroso, wenn Sie sich das hier ansehen, das ist eine Schule, in die Barroso studiert. Er hat einen Master's Degree von Yale University, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Harvard Law School.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
I am so curious who he went to school with in the States and America. He's considered a liberal and progressive justice providing landmark votes on the legalization of abortion and pregnancies originating from rape. He's the most ideological justice of the party. And criminalization of homophobia and transphobia in Brazil?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Ich denke, später hat er ein Buch für Lehrer geschrieben, das die meisten Gerichtsschulen in Brasilien tatsächlich benutzen. Ich denke, es ist vielleicht sogar der populärste Buch, der über Gerichte geschrieben wird. Und er hat eine Menge gutes Arbeit gemacht. Ökonomisch, wenn ich nicht falsch bin, ist er ein Konservativer. Und er sagt, in den alten Tagen war er ökonomisch konservativ.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Gehen wir zurück zu dem, was du gesagt hast. Was definieren sie als Rassismus in Brasilien? Was sie nicht mögen. Gib mir ein Beispiel von jemandem, der für Rassismus verhaftet wurde. Wie jemand, der für Rassismus verhaftet wurde. Was tun sie?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
That's what? Antisemitic. That's anti-Semitic of you to go up against Soros?

It's on the recording. A 14-year-old man helped a Nazi kill Jews and later on was asked about it in an interview in 60 Minutes, I believe. And he's like, yeah, it didn't do anything to me emotionally. I'm okay. It didn't bother me. It didn't hurt me. I've never been called...
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Er ging darum, die Polizisten abzulehnen, um sicherzustellen, dass die Straßen sauber waren. Und all das, was da war, waren ein paar Probleme, die mit ihm passiert waren. Und dann, all of a sudden, passiert etwas. Okay, wo du durch eine bestimmte Phase mit ihm gehst, wo er sich von dem, wer er war, wechselt. Operation Car Wash happens, millions of dollars, if not billions of dollars are stolen.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
So your dad now is in Brazil. Yes. Can he leave? No. Why can't he leave? Because Alexandre Moraes took his passport. And he took his... Is this because of the jet ski situation or is this because of the... It could be.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Lula gets the house, the waterfront property, claims never got it. Another guy gave 2.1 billion dollars in bribes. I think it's one of the richest people in Brazil. You guys know the name on who he is, what he did. But I want to know about him. How did he go from being a lawyer to getting into different political groups to all of a sudden becoming the most feared...

I go to Argentina a few years ago. I was expecting to fall in love. I was disappointed. It wasn't that big of a deal for me. I've been all over the world. Everybody would say, Argentina is the Paris of, you know, South, Central America. You know, you're going to go, Argentina is this, Argentina is that. Okay, cool, we go. We're like, okay. Sozialismus.

PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Don't ask me how we were able to pull this off, but we got four of the most influential, powerful voices in the Brazilian community. Paulo Figueiredo.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
in Brazil, how was he able to pull it off in a socialistic country that sounds like Brazil is going through right now?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Und vielleicht haben einige Leute ihn sogar als Diktator in Brasilien genannt. Was ist mit ihm passiert?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
They don't have a problem with the Supreme Court. So let's look at that. So Argentina paper... Und du denkst, das war ein Vorteil für ihn, dass die Argentinier auf Papierelektionen, Papierwahlen rannten?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
So, can you pull up the inflation chart you just showed, Rob, in Argentina? So, you just had it a minute ago. Literally, you had it a minute ago. If you go back, yeah, right there. So, Argentinian inflation beats 200% in 2023. So, what you're saying is, so that's from 2018. zu 2019, 2020, 2021, es sinkt zu 35, 38% und dann geht es bis 2022 und dann bis 2023 bis 211%. Und dann gewinnt Millet.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Okay? Okay, kein Problem. Also jetzt geht es zur Inflation in Brasilien. Ich bin gespannt, wie die Inflation in Brasilien aussieht.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
And interesting to know. This is just two years. We need more. Like I need more than 2019. But okay, so under your father went all the way down to right there. We can kind of see. Go back to that. So 2020, so this is inflation broke 10% in September. Is there a pandemic? Yeah.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
In my life, that never happened. So it's not, but go to 2024 inflation, Rob. Just go 2024 Brazil inflation. It's not out of control. That's what I want to know. So it's not that painful right now in Brazil.

PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
But here's where I'm going with this, why I'm showing you this. The reason why I'm asking you this question is sometimes when you're running into wanting to run for office, become a president, right? Even Biden, I'm going to tax the billionaires. He can't. You know why he can't? Because they're giving him the money.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
So, if they're funding him, like, if you remember that one thing, Rob, if you can pull up the clip with Trump and Hillary Clinton, where he says, Trump avoided paying this much taxes. I don't know if you know which one I'm talking about. Trump, you're going to have a hard time finding it on YouTube, but I'm sorry, if you go to Moment Debate, yeah, you'll have an easier time finding it.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Hillary, Trump, Hillary-Trump-Taxes-Debate. Okay? Is that the one? That's the one. Yeah. So there's a moment in the debate, which I don't know if you guys have seen or not. There's a moment in the debate in US. So funny. Yeah, where Hillary Clinton and Trump, they're going back and forth.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
And she asked him, just verify, Rob, real quick, if that's the one, if you can fast forward and see if this is when he's saying he didn't pay taxes, he didn't do this, he didn't do that. And then Trump comes back up and says, that's because... Keep going to see if this is the one.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Rob, go to the end to see if that's when he responds. That's the one that Dave Chappelle used on his SNL. So there's one. Oh, here it is. It's the one that's 152,000 views. Does this have 152,000 views? Go to the one that's 152,000 views, Rob. That makes me smart. Okay, that's where you're at. How many minutes is this? One minute. Okay, go ahead and play it.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
That's why I said go to the 152,000 one. It's the top right. Right? That's the one. Yeah. So, in this scene, what happens is, he's saying, she's saying that, hey, you didn't do this, you didn't do that, you didn't do this. And then he turns around and says the following. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Has Brazil always been that way? No. Okay, so when did it flip? That's my interest. That's what Paulo is going to answer. When did it flip?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
If you continuously go the way you're going, like especially Brazil, generally it's been a country that we feel safe going. This is a new thing that this is going on with Brazil. Nobody was expecting something like this to happen in Brazil.

Aren't the billionaires, out of all those billionaires, how many of them are against Lula and Moraes, that they're saying something that this is going to affect the economy. They're not going to allow this to continue. Who is voicing their opinions of the billionaires?
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409

And every time I talk to people, I'm obviously I'm a guy that lived in Iran. And when Carter became president for those four years when he was president, Iran was in shambles. Die iranische Revolution, als Iran von einem der schönsten Länder der Welt, unter Dushan, heruntergefallen ist, geschah unter Jimmy Carter. Und der naheste Fall, den wir von Jimmy Carter haben, ist von Joseph Biden.
PBD Podcast
Brazil: Corrupt Alexandre de Moraes EXPOSED | Eduardo Bolsonaro, Nikolas Ferreira | PBD Podcast #409
Und wieder zurück zu dem, was du gesagt hast, wenn der Präsident in den USA schmerzhaft ist, fühlen alle anderen es auch. Ich bin in den USA, weil Jimmy Carter.

Okay, so at that time he's going, he's behind the scenes, no one is even looking, right? He's nothing at this time, 16, 17, 18. You know him, you're saying you know him, but he's not front facing, he's behind closed doors. Okay, no threat, no signs of that one time he stole this, that one time he did this, there's nothing yet. No, correct. Okay, so what happens 2020 with him?

All right, so don't ask me how we were able to pull this off, but we got four of the most influential, powerful voices in the Brazilian community, specifically on the conservative side, especially at a time like this with all the stuff that's going on in Brazil, whether you were watching what happened with the elections or the January 8th event in 2023.

He started it in 1979 with Khomeini, never done a two-hour long-form podcast, finally agreed to do this interview. When you're talking about Hezbollah, Houthis, Hamas, any of those proxy wars, any of those proxy troops that they have in the Middle East that's causing chaos all over the place, he's the founder of that organization.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Who were some of the higher-ups in the room? that later on became leaders? Who were some of the people in the room with you and Khomeini?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
This is who? So he was executed by Khomeini. So who else was in that room with 20 people? Was Ghassan Soleimani a player yet or not yet?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Rafsanjani, is he in the room or no?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And the conversation today, the first hour, is super necessary for you to watch because it gives you the backstory, the history of what he did
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Rafsanjani was the closest person to Khomeini.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Okay. So he was an E.F. Hutton. He was an influencer in Khomeini's life, Rafsanjani, at that time. Now, At the time, who is Khomeini to you? And now looking back at this age, who is Khomeini to you? So first impression, because you were not a person supporting Shah. You were one of the students that was out there doing whatever you could to prevent the Shah from staying there.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You wanted to get rid of the Shah. You were not a fan of his. And then he leaves. You go to support him. In your eyes, who was Khomeini then? Hmm.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And at one point, when he's working there in the floor where the president and prime minister were killed by a man that reported directly to him, he was in that building when Massoud Kashmiri, who reported to him, he was one of the guys that worked for him, ends up killing the president of Iran at the time, Raji, and kills the prime minister at the time, Mohammad Javad Bahonar.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
His direct report killed his boss. So imagine he, founder of IRGC, is reporting to the president and prime minister, his Zurich report killed them, and then afterwards he said that the person who killed them is dead. They even did a funeral, and later on they found out he was never dead. That was not a true story. He had to go to jail for it. He talks about that.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
When you guys started it, and you were there at the beginning, okay, it's not hard to see Right off the bat, people were getting killed left and right under Khomeini, right? Military leaders, many of them that were under the Shah who were loyal to him. You know the one guy that they cut his arm because he shook hands with, he didn't salute him, so they ended up cutting his arm.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Do you know who I'm talking about? I'll pull this up and give you the name here in a minute. Baha'i people who were afraid to be there, they were running away left and right. He was killing Baha'is left and right. There was fear in that community.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Wouldn't you ask somebody that's there early on realizing they're killing everybody they can get their hands on that disagrees with them early on to realize this is not a good regime? Because you said the first time you realized that it was bad was in 88 when it was the 4,000 political prisoners. But you should have seen glimpses earlier, no?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
It was a little bit contentious when I brought that up. When we talked about the Shah and some of the stories he told about the fact that he was the voice, like in all the tapes in Iran, this was one of the greatest campaigns ever to cause a country to fall, a regime to fall. Khomeini...
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
was in France recording the tapes, sending them to Iran to be able to play it for people to hear on what he was saying. And the first voice you would hear on those tapes was the gentleman that's here today as a guest. I had a mom for many different reasons. Obviously, I'm a child born in the revolution. I'm a revolution baby. I was born three months before the revolution. So to me,

PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
These are things that I'm very much tied to, events that I saw. And as a father, I'd like to one day go back and show my kids and say, your father was born here. That's not possible in today's regime. We talk about sanctions. We talk about Israel. We talked about why the fall happened in 1979. Like I said, the second half is extremely heated.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Yeah, in Iran. And one time you were even imprisoned without being there, right? There's a name for it for six years. I don't know what the name of that is when you were...
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I think 45 minutes of the second half is extremely heated, that we actually get to things. One of the parts was about the fact that Trump came up. Brainwashing came up. He was not a fan of me using the word brainwashing. But I respect the fact that he was willing to sit down and have a long-form interview. Nothing was off the table. There was nothing he said you can't talk about. Nothing.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Why were you trying to? Were you trying to kill yourself so that could be a statement to the world on how much you're standing up against them?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Because they were tied to you. Yeah. 800 students. 800 students. How long did they stay in jail?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
While they had you and you're not eating, are they abusing you? Are they trying to embarrass you? Are they doing any public humiliation ritual? Are they doing anything to you?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I asked any and every question I wanted to ask. And if the issue of Iran and the Middle East is something you're interested in, you're about to hear it from the founder of of the organization called IRGC that's caused all the chaos in the Middle East since 1979.

PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
The prison has been primary site for the housing of Iranian political prisoners since 72 before and after the Iranian revolution and a purpose-built wing named Evan University. Due to the high number of students and intellectuals detained there, Evan prison has been accused of committing serious human rights abuses against its political dissidents and critics of the government.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Is this what the SAVAK used? Yeah. Right. Yeah. So the 3,000 political prisoners that Jimmy Carter was talking about with the Shah was at this prison, Evin prison? Mostly. Mostly were here. Yeah. When he was talking about human rights, you have to let those political prisoners go. Yeah. It was people like you.

"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548

PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Some clerics, some- Which some of them ended up being extremists later on, to be fair with the Shah, right, that what happened. So some of the people he held was actually, he could have prevented, you know, it was actually a good move to hold some of them that later on they ended up causing some havoc around the world.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
It's a pretty heavy statement, though, to try to change the constitution, and you're teaching that. You're a menace to society. You're a menace to the regime. But the part I want to go back to is when you're in, you're seeing it, and you're saying you were at one point deputy minister, right? That was your job. And you said for how many years? How long did you have that job as a minister?

So I called a few people. Because from my end, I've interviewed and spoken to a lot of people from the Iranian side, and I wrote a fiction book called The Academy. And in the story The Academy, a lot of the Iranian revolution is depicted in the book. It's a story about a secret society that recruits young kids and develops them into leaders.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Anyways, this is a part of my life that I lived in Iran, so some of it is in there from a kid that's Assyrian and Armenian. But when I call these different people, people who were there at the time,
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
People who send me clips and articles quoted by you, they said, when this happened, you claimed that your friend who got killed, who killed the president and the prime minister, we're talking Kashmiri, Massoud, who killed Raji and Bahunar. You came out and said he's dead. And there's even some articles that said you put ashes to say he's dead, he's no longer there.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And that was falsifying your friend's death, that he died. And then later on they found out that he was alive and you had to go to prison for it. Is that all true?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548

I get that, but why are you so swift to say he's also dead, here's his ashes? You're a pretty smart man. So what this makes me think about, because I pulled up to kind of see, because what I want to know is who benefited from this, right? That's what everybody wants to know. So who benefited from it? Khomeini benefited from it. Khomeini long-term benefited from it. IRGC benefited from it.

"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
There's quite a few people that benefited from it. So if you're on the inside, and this happened in 81, you're 24, 25 years old at the time. You're still a supporter of what they're doing. You haven't yet flipped and turned out.

It almost gives me the vibes of the Italian mob when somebody is taking out the boss to get a promotion and get a job because it's going to be a lot of favors and everybody keeps your mouth shut and don't say anything. And let's just say, yeah, he was also killed. He's no longer here. Sounds a little fishy.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
To the average person listening to this, it makes it seem like maybe you knew and maybe you were being a loyalist and maybe you wanted to defend to not say anything and then You went away and you got arrested.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And when we think about being a founder of something that, you know, tied to funding, you know, starting Hezbollah, tied to supporting Houthis, tied to jihad, tied to we can go so many different places. Like the average person goes to a place of saying this start of this organization, 1979, right after the revolution of February, three months later with, you know, you and Khomeini.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
We were, you know, the emotions... When you're saying MKO, this is the People's Mujahideen of Iran, MEK, a militant opposition group, which they claim they were the beneficiaries of this taking place. Yeah, they were fighting with the regime. But you're friends with this guy, right? You've spent time with this guy. Have you spent 100-plus hours with him?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548

PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Well, let's stay here. So I want to finalize the story and move on from this. So some reporters told me that there was actually a funeral for the guy. Yeah. And they actually thought he was dead. So this is like Kaiser Sose type of a situation, that the guy disappeared.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
But during that time, while his funeral's being held, have you spoken to him? Have you met with him? Have you talked to him at all? Before that? No, while everybody is thinking he's dead, did you and him at all have an interaction or talk?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Did you ever meet him, see him again at all?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548

PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You think he's still alive? Yeah. But you haven't spoken to him?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Potentially it could be the cost of millions of people's lives. That's, the average person says, that's what happened. For you, what is the backstory to you and Khomeini starting IRGC?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548

"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
When you're with Khomeini at the beginning stages of IRGC, from the moment you're helping found IRGC, how many people were you in rooms or talks where you know they're being killed left and right? What was the first instance where you're like, oh my God, we're killing a lot of people right now? It should have been pretty quickly, no?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And by the way, for the average person that's watching this, this is now an organization that's got 190,000 soldiers, give or take, Army, Navy, Hezbollah. They indirectly fund Houthis. They fund Hamas. They fund who else can I say?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548

Obviously you said you did not see it getting this big, as big as it is today. But I got like so many questions. I think two hours is not enough. But let me ask this question from you.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So say looking back when you were a young leftist, you want to do right, you're thinking noble and money people are all they greed and all they care about is money and the Shah and all this stuff, how evil he is and Marek Bad Omri call and all this stuff that's going on, right?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Do you now regret, and are you at a point where you're able to say, if the revolution didn't happen and the Shah stayed there, the Middle East would not only be more at peace, but millions of other people would still be alive? Are you comfortable saying that if the Shah stayed and they still ruled, not allowing the revolution to happen with Khomeini, it'd be a lot more peaceful place? Yes.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
directly or indirectly while the Shah was in charge and he was developing Iran and making a more modernized, making a more industrialized, you know, the relationships he was creating with Israel, with Saudi, with Iraq. Even you said yourself that Saddam Hussein said, hey, you got to leave my country, Khomeini, because I have a treaty with the Shah and we have a good treaty here. So we're good.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
How many people did he kill? Like if you're saying, you know, the Shah did what he did, What were the worst events that took place in the Middle East under Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
That's not what I'm talking about. Yeah. That's not what I'm talking about.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Think about what you just said. Think about what you just said. It's very important because we're talking about from 25 to 79. Okay, give or take, right? If we look at imperialist state of Iran, to 1979, 54 years, 3,500, give or take is what you're saying, right? And then you think about around the Middle East, what the tensions were like.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And you know how they say Iran is the agent of chaos and all this other stuff, IRGC and what they've done. And some of that is true of what took place. But that wasn't the case under the Shah. So when I have a lot of people here like Reza Aslan, I'm sure you know who Reza Aslan is. If you don't, he used to be with CNN and he did a lot of different things.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
This fellow right here who is a very educated guy wrote a book called Zealot. And he's written a lot of books that have done well. He himself, his family escaped Iran after the Shah, and he still can't stand the Shah, right? But he sits there and says, look, it was a better place under the Shah than it was now. I go through this because I'm curious. I'm born October 1878. So I'm in October 1870.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I'm an October 1878 baby. My dad's taking my mother to the hospital. Water breaks. curfew, they hold my dad up. What are you doing? It's 10 o'clock at night. You know you can't be outside. My wife is pregnant. Babies do. Can you take the escort my mom to the hospital? And then I'm born, right, at the height of tensions and chaos.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I was born with the revolution. I came out with the revolution energy, right? But the reason why I'm saying this to you, this is an aspect of my life that I'm very, very curious about for my own self. Everybody has certain things they want to get answered. I want to get it answered for myself. This is why I like these debates and discussions.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
But going back to it, when we're talking about this, everybody benefits from something. Like, I want to know who benefited from Khomeini coming back to Iran. So in my mind, I go through different things. I want to ask you before I give you mine. Because you know the accusations of him being a double agent.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You know the accusations of France, media indirectly started giving him so much time on TV that other people in Iran could watch him and start liking him and the way they build him up and the way they edify him and he's such an amazing man and he's such a gentle this and oh my God, he's so this and he's so caring and what if one day he returns back to Iran and Iranian people are just watching it on French TV, oh wow, this is such an incredible thing.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So who benefited from Khomeini coming back to Iran? Is it France? Is it UK? Is it Russia? Who benefited from Khomeini coming to Iran? Khomeini.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Have you ever read that book? 300? Committee of 300. No. You ever read that book? In the book Committee of 300, it talks about that Khomeini was the making of MI6. So the same way CIA helped the Shah get in, to replace Mossadegh, they say Khomeini was helped by MI6. This is why BBC would put him up, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Now, hang tight before you give your rebuttal.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
But that's the story you hear about with MI6 and Khomeini. Two, you hear about the U.S. Green Belt Theory. You're familiar with the Green Belt Theory? Yeah, I've seen it. What is it? It's Kissinger and what's the guy's name? What's the lady's name who was with MSNBC, was married to Joe? What's her last name? Brzezinski?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Brzezinski. So the father and Kissinger, they sat there and they were worried about what was going on with Russia and Brezhnev. And they said, hey, you know, if we have the lesser of the two evils, we need somebody to go against them because Russia is getting too powerful and we need a pain in the ass in the Middle East. So let's put Khomeini there because we can no longer control the Shah.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
The Shah has become so powerful that we may – no longer be able to do, you know, what we want to do with them, right? So Khomeini is a little bit more of a person that we can control, maybe. We won't be able to control the Shah. Your impression of those two stories that we hear about, claims?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So watch this. So here's the thing. With the leftist Iranians... This is what the left is, because you said it's famous with the Iranians. On the left is Iranians that maybe they're a little bit more supportive of Nayak and that community, they'll typically say, yeah, the CIA was involved with Mossadegh and preventing him from coming in.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
But no, when it comes down to getting rid of the Shah and Khomeini coming in, MI6 was not involved. That's just some of the people that like the Shah say stuff like this. So the liberals want to believe one of them, but say, no, it's a conspiracy on the other side. But God forbid if the others say that, you know, You know, the Shah came in and maybe, you know, it's what the people wanted.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
No, no, that was actually CIA. So can't both be true?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
No, it's not about the... What else? It's not, okay, you want me to tell you?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
What do you think was the tipping point for you guys succeeding? Was it Sinema Rex? What was the tipping point?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Okay, do you remember when you first met Khomeini and you were like, what a gentle, kind, sweet man he was? And then, boom. Killing after killing after killing after killing after killing. And then you decide to step away in 1988. And you go to jail. They have you in prison at the Evin prison in Tehran. And then you realize, wow, maybe I got spooked.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Maybe I got fooled, maybe I got bamboozled by Khomeini. I want to go a little bit deeper with this thing on when you said who benefited from 1953 to 1959. What major contract and agreement came about between those 26 years? Can you go to 1954 oil consortium agreement? 1954 oil consortium agreement. That was in 1954. Do you know how long the contract was?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Right, so the contract was a 25-year contract. Okay. So the 25-year contract expired in 79. And Iran, under the Shah, became so powerful that he was becoming more and more assertive about what they were producing. Iran education was improving. Women had freedom that they had way more than what they have today. The age of marriage for women came down to nine years old, 10 years old under the Shah.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I think it was 18 or 16 or 15 years old. Now it goes back down to numbers. He's being asked by Wallace. He says in five years, We're going to be what you are right now, Britain, because he was seeing the strength that was coming up. And what happens when under the Shah there's no wars for 25 years? Who doesn't make money if there's no wars? Who doesn't make money?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So you think Eisenhower was a dummy? No, he was not. So what did Eisenhower say at the end of his... Let's put it this way.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So I'm going to give you...
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Do you think CIA is capable of creating a coup in Iran to replace Mossadegh and put Shah in? On those days, yes, but not now. Oh, stop it. They can't do that. You can't be that naive. Can you go back to the 1954 oil consortium agreement, Rob? Just go to the link. I just want you to see this here real quick. So this is the agreement. Can you go a little bit lower? Keep going lower. Right there.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Terms. The dispute was finalized with the incorporation of a 25-year international oil consortium agreement in 1954. 53 is Mossadegh. Shah comes in. 25 plus 1954 is 79, dividing the...
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
aforementioned 50% ownership to foreign companies as follows, 40% to be divided equally, 8% each amongst the five major American companies, BP to have 40% share, Royal Dutch to have 14% share, CFP, a French company, to receive 6%. A year later, 1950, a U.S.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
government ordered five companies to each transfer 1% of their 8% to several smaller companies because these companies have been complained that they were left out. So This is official. That is taking place. Okay, so there is nothing. So 1954, 79. In 1954, Iran needs the world. They desperately need the world. In 79, the world needs Iran.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
They're starting to realize this guy is creating a lot of momentum. Okay, so now watch. No wars. So then, can you go pull up Eisenhower when he was president? What years was he president? I think it's somewhere around the same time, 53 to 60 or something like that. What terms... Okay, so there you go. So 53 to 60, 61, he's president. What's his last message?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Be careful with the military-industrial complex that he's giving the message, hey... You know, guys got to be careful because these guys want a lot of war so they can make a lot of money. Is he naive? Or maybe he knows some things that you and I don't know because he's on the inside.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So then, military-industrial complex, you look at the business now, the amount of money that's being made by having to sell weapons and more war, then for me it goes to, let's just say we're playing a three-dimensional chess game. What happens if you sit there and... U.S. is realizing they can't control Russia because they have a relationship with Iran. U.S.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
is sitting, they can't control some of those countries there that they don't need U.S., let's just say. Sometimes you're a person that is not asking for help and you want to control them, especially in military types of situations, you have to create chaos for them to call and say, hey, I need your help. Bingo. Now that you need help, now my terms.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
This happens in the insurance business when I was working for 20-something years and companies did this. What happened when Middle East became chaotic again? All the neighbors need America, and guess what, America? We'll come and build a military base, military industrial complex. All these other guys are making money.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I mean, to me, for us to sit here and just play one-dimensional, not two or three, but yet assume that the CIA helped get rid of Mossadegh to bring Shah in, we're assuming the CIA got weaker than they were in 1953. I don't think you're that naive.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Who did that benefit? Where did that $1 trillion go to?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Don't be a conspiracy theorist here, Mohsen. I don't like it. Please don't do that on my show. Don't say that these businesses made a trillion dollars because of the war.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You said it costs taxpayers a trillion dollars. Do you really think these politicians that are controlled by these big military contractors, do you think they wake up in the morning saying, let me think about the taxpayers? Do you really think they care about the taxpayers? Do you know how much national debt that we have right now?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Do you know the fact that Musk and Trump and all these guys are trying to find a way to get us to be a little bit more efficient? You know who's losing their shit? The people that benefit from all this expenditure, wasted expenditure.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I mean, if I give you some of the numbers of how dumb expenditure we've done in the U.S., our history of spending money on stupid things, we have a long track record of it, but why did that happen? Because some politicians signed off on it. Somebody said this was good. Somebody was bought off on the site.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Somebody said, I'll support your campaign if you help us create this thing and if you help us get rid of this guy. For somebody that's been in this space this long and spent time with Khomeini, for you to not think this is possible?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Oh, no, but he was threatening to raise prices because it was going to be a new contract.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So are you for sanctions or you're not for sanctions?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
But that's a byproduct of the average, when you said $2.5 million, out of four million people living in Tehran, came out to march against the Shah, supporting of Khomeini.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Whatever the number is, they were brainwashed. They were brainwashed. Like, when you remember when Sinema Rex happened and they said, oh, Savak did it. And then afterwards you realize it was one of Khomeini's people that did it. You haven't read that story?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Yes.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
What percentage of Americans do you think are brainwashed?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You asked me a question. Let me give you my argument. Then I want to hear from you. So you're asking me a question. Do I think it's possible to brainwash 25 out of 35 million people? Really? Really. In how many instances do you see when somebody, everybody conspires in America to say, if I was to ask you in 2016, if Trump was tied to Russia collusion, you probably believed it, did you not?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You believed it. You can answer that. You believed he was tied to Russia collusion. Yes or no?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Did you believe it when they first, did you think he was tied to Russia and he was colluding with Russia?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Mohsen, it's a very basic question. Do you think Trump at the beginning, did you believe he was colluding with Russia?

Mohsen. Mohsen. Mohsen, that smile on your face is cracking. You may be a good poker player.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
That smile is cracking. How many people in America believe that he was colluding with Russia?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Rob, can you run a, would you say it's only 1%?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Would you say it's 70%? What percentage of Americans in 2016 believed that President Trump was colluding with Russia? Can you ask it on ChatGBT? If that doesn't come up here, ask it right here first. Let's see what it does. Right there, see if the answer comes up. Because there was a poll. Nearly half of all Americans believe President Trump worked with Russia to interfere in 2016.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
The most educated country in the world, let's just say. All the Harvard and all the Yale and Columbia and USC and UCLA and Wharton. Half a million people believe, half of America believe this guy was colluding with Russia. What happened a few years later? $35 million dossier by Hillary Clinton. And then nobody talked about it anymore. Everybody stopped. So you don't think conspiracy theories work?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
So who are you guys trying to take weapons away from? The soldiers that were under the Shah's military?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Look at this. They just fooled half of American people. So for you, now take it back to then. This would have been 80% if there was no social media. This would have been 90% if there was no social media. If I only have two channels or three channels or four channels to listen to and competition for media wasn't high, 80% of Americans would have been brainwashed, including me.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
A lot of us, we would have been like, holy shit, that's probably what happened. Maybe his son did meet with him. Maybe that did take place. Maybe this did take place. For you to say that 25 to 35, the power of propaganda is so flippant.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
If somebody very powerful in a political party that hates you, if they want to put a campaign of propaganda against you to destroy your life, your life is destroyed. Your life is destroyed. If they want to convince the world, you even whisper and say, accusations of Mohsen rape in 1989, boom. Hey, accusations of pedophilia, boom. Accusations of Russia collusion, he's tied.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Your reputation is tied to being an agent. When I talk to people, some people say you're still dealing with Mullahs. Some people tell me you're still tied to Nayak. Is that true? I mean, if they want to do it, they can do it like this. Maybe it is, maybe it's not. All I'm saying to you, for us to sit there and assume, that Iranian people... Can I answer now? Of course.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Why did you guys want to take the weapons away from citizens?

73, 74.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Education.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I think that's a fair assessment, meaning over-promise, under-deliver on some of the things.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You are underestimating the power of a united front who wants to replace somebody. By the way, the paper you read by Savak, was that a paper written by Nasiri or Parvi Sabeti?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Some of the Savak members were also not happy with the Shah not being too aggressive with the two-day party and not too aggressive with Khomeini. Some of the Savak members were like, we've got to take that guy out. You know those stories where...
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
The Shah didn't think Khomeini could have that much momentum and power until he started seeing all the tapes, the millions of tapes being spread in Iran and those tapes getting people to listen to what Khomeini was saying. They're like, wait a minute. Maybe we need this guy over here. The tapes were very effective. The tapes at the time were what social media is today. You know that.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
But you guys chose to take it away from everybody. So it doesn't matter whether you were from a group or not. Let's get the guns away from people.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You just validated my point. Meaning, to be able to get everybody brainwashed, you guys did it successfully. So you get credit for running one of the best viral campaigns ever.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Really? You know what you did?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Not necessarily. Not necessarily. Not necessarily. It's who's writing the history that controls the power. There's a quote. What is this quote? There is a very, very powerful quote about what you just said. By the way, continue. I'm going to find this quote. Please, go for it.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
That smile is cracking. I got like so many questions. I think two hours is not enough. But let me ask this question from you. If you know the name Mohsen Sazegara, today's interview is going to upset you a lot because you're probably Iranian and you know the fact that he's the founder of IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I found this quote.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Nobody trusts the Secret Service. Are you kidding me? We had 51 Secret Service intelligence officers signed off saying there's nothing in the Hunter Biden laptop. And we find out what it was to the point that Biden had to pardon his entire family and everybody else. So to me, where you're going with this, sometimes people, my experience, people who are such scholars and educators
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
They are in such a big box that they don't see the three dimension. And that may offend you, I understand. It was intended to offend scholars. I'm not saying it in a way to try to make friends. Sometimes there's a box, okay, that people have. They're living in a box. Here's the quote that I was referencing. History is always written by the winners. The two cultures clash.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
That's the sentence of Hitler. The loser is obliterated and a winner writes the history, books, books which glorify their own cause and disparage the conquered foe. As Napoleon once said, what is history but a fable agreed upon the Da Vinci Code, right? Here's how simple it was for me. Imagine if Kamala Harris wins. OK, let's just kind of play this along.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Well, because he lost that.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
By the way, respect to the historians, it's very important, but all I'm saying is who are historians reading It's selective. If I just sit there and read Karl Marx and all those guys, okay, am I going to study the historians based on the facts from a leftist book recommendation? Because both the left and the right can give a top 100 book recommendations to give.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
You're the co-founder of it with Khomeini. How many people think it's directly and indirectly killed?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And I'm going to see it on this side. I'm going to see it on this side. There's some biases there. But all I'm saying is if Kamala Harris would have won in 2024, let's just say she wins. Obama would have been able to come out and say 2016 when Trump won was a fluke. He got lucky. And what he says, nobody's interested in what MAGA's interested in. Let's just say.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And they would have destroyed his legacy, is what they would have tried to do. And we would have to sit there and say, no, DEI, that's what we got to do, Mohsen. No, no, transgender, LGBTQ, that's what we have to teach to our kids, right? No, no, no, guess what, we have to do all this other, no, no, no, no, these guys, and they would have had that chokehold on everybody.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
This was about to be a revolutionary era for us, and all I'm saying to you is, When you go back, and I like what you just said right now, you said if after 35 years you're going to be able to recite history and see what happened. You know what we do know between the two?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
From the person that started IRGC, yourself, with Khomeini, together, an organization that at the time you thought you were helping Khomeini because you thought he was a good guy, took you less than 10 years to realize this guy's not a good guy because you were in your early 20s. You said that yourself. And you were one of the students that was...
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
protesting against the Shah because you wanted to get rid of the Shah. You succeeded. The tapes worked on you. You were in the sounds of those tapes. Tens of millions of people listened to those tapes. Fantastic. Fast forward to 2025. All the shit they said about Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and how noble Khomeini was, now we have data.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Now we can see how chaotic it was in the Middle East under Khomeini and his regime and Khamenei. And we know how things were under the Shah. There is plenty of data to be able to say only this many people died when he and his father were dead. Oh, Reza Khan was a terrible man. He was a dictator and a half, and the enemies feared him, and he was just such a... Fine.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
I'd much rather have a guy like that on my end if we're somewhat at peace. Oh, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, all he cared about was the money and da-da-da-da-da and all the, you know, his castle and all the stuff that he built. Education improved, middle income improved. Maybe he was a little bit too ambitious. Maybe you're right.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Maybe if he had cancer, he needed to expedite the process of replacing himself with somebody else. Maybe he should have done that. I think that's a very good point you're making. With whom? I don't know. His son was a little too young. Maybe he was waiting behind closed doors for a few more years. We don't know that. But the reality of it is right now,
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Israel, Hamas, Middle East, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, all of that, is with the help of whoever helped Khomeini to come back in with IRGC and Iran, all that stuff, Iran produced chaos in the Middle East. That part cannot be disputed. Is that fair? Yeah, that's fair.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Which one? Both of them? Reza Shah, the father.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
No, that's a fair assessment. I think you've made a few very good points. If you knew you had cancer in 73, 74, and the only people that know, maybe your wife even didn't know for a while, Maybe he had to kind of have a plan. Maybe he had a plan in his mind that didn't happen fast enough. Maybe he was waiting for his sons to be ready for it. I don't know. Maybe he was afraid of opening it up.
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Those things, you know, Zahedi's written about it. I'm sure you know who I'm talking about, the ambassador. A lot of people have written about it. By the way, last question before we wrap up. What did Khomeini think about Israel? What was Khomeini's opinion on Israel?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
Was it hate, like sheer hate? Maybe. It was. And would you put that at the top or would you put the U.S. above that?
PBD Podcast
"Khomeini Became A MONSTER" - Islamic Revolutionary Guard Founder CONFESSES How They Destroyed Iran | PBD Podcast | Ep. 548
And then who else would you put in the top three? Top three? Top three. So if Israel is one, U.S. is one, who else would you put in top three?
PBD Podcast

"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Very interesting. I ask that because when you're saying quality of life, to think quality of life of the conversation we're having, you have to be analytical a little bit to pay attention to the details to say, it took me one hour to come up, but it would have been 30 minutes where I live. I have two kids.
PBD Podcast

PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Wow. Elia, let me ask you, like in the specific boxing side, right? Like when they ask him, like, hey, Jake Paul, you know, fighting against Canelo. To Canelo, it's like, you know, it's a very different world. Is your technical abilities in boxing, stand-up, how good do you think you stand technical abilities with somebody that's a professional boxer?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Pure boxing. Makes sense. And by the way, Max Holloway was known as a guy that he would say he had the best stand-up. No, no, no. He was saying that, but that wasn't the truth. So you don't even think he's the best stand-up?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
5-4-5, it's all the lightweight, right? Yeah, it is all lightweight because it's Conor Khabib. I think it's Conor.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Compared to you or compared to anybody else?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Your matchup with Makachev, where do you have the advantage and where does he?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
So if you ask him what his favorite submission is, you would do that to him? Yeah. This is a guy that's trained and coached by Khabib, who, you know, 28 and 0, you know, stories that he's never lost around in his life.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566

"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566

PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
It's so weird that you did this in Georgia and Spain. Who's there? I mean, you understand? Like, it's kind of weird to say that. Because some of the guys, you're coming from this camp. Okay, you know. He comes from what camp? We know what camp he's coming from. We've seen the videos. We've seen the training. We've seen how disciplined their camp is. And everyone's from a different camp.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Who else is a very well-known person from the camp that you came up of outside of you and your brother? Who is well-known? See, that's weird.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Yeah, that's... It's weird. It is weird. That's the part that's very weird with you. Where did this come from? Do you think... Well, I mean, it's not even that because you have access to everything. Would you guys watch a lot of YouTube and kind of repeat it, you and your brother, and watch what he...
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
But there's not a professional UFC fighter that's coaching you guys with your career. No. Not even a professional boxer or professional. At all. No one.

PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566

PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Who's on top of the world in 2015? Conor's on top of the world, right?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Who were the biggest names of UFC in 2015? Conor, Holly Holm, go a little bit lower. Ronda Rousey, Daniel Cormier, John.

So you go to UAE for the fight. Rob, can you go back to the fight list? So you go to UAE, you have that fight.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I remember that. I watched that card.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
And that's ESPN.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
It's not even a main ones yet. No. And then go to Ryan Hall, Vegas. And Jai Herbert, that's the one with the kick. That's the one that they gave you two weeks, right? When they called you two-week prep? Which one?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You went to 155. So that happens if they just call you to say, do you want to take a fight that's not at your weight class? They can make those calls?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
And you get to say yes or no.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Yeah, but what is very unique about what you're saying, I talked about a bodybuilding story earlier. I had a guy named Dorian Yates. I don't know if you know who Dorian Yates is. I'm bodybuilding. He won six Mr. Olympias. The guy had the most ridiculous physique. This is Dorian Yates. He won six Mr. Olympias. He's from UK. And what made him unique is all the other bodybuilders that would compete
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
They were all in the US, and so they would all train at the same gym. So they could see what kind of improvement you're making, because they're all here. Flex Wheeler, Kevin, you know, all the guys. This guy was in London, not even in London, in a city outside of London, like in a regular city. And you would only see him once a year. So everybody's like, well, is he training guard?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Is he not training guard? Is he training guard? And then when he would come, he was a scientist. He paid attention to everything. And he would come and dominate. And he won six of them in a row. Because nobody could see him. Yeah, he was a real, real... A lot of people try to model their bodybuilding after this guy. He lives a very different life right now. Yoga.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
In bodybuilding ever? It's probably Ronnie Coleman, Arnold. Old school would be a guy named Lee Haney. Phil Heath has an incredible physique. Kevin Lavrone, Flex Wheeler. Jay Cutler's got a good amount of following. But it's probably this guy, Ronnie Coleman.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
28 years old. So some of these guys, they peaked at 32, 33, 31. That's the age, right? You're at 28. Your peak versus Conor's peak, who wins that fight? At 155, let's just say.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You know, it's at a point that they tell you everything they use now. Yeah? Oh, yeah. But they don't do drug tests? No, not Mr. Olympia. No, they don't do any drug tests. No, but they put so many things in their body. By the way, some people say, hey, even if you put it in your body, that doesn't mean you're going to win Mr. Olympia.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
It's a lot of detail. It's a lot of stuff that you've got to be able to do. These guys are... A diet. A diet. By the way, it sucks as a life. It's not a good life. It sucks. It's not a good life at all. It's a very different life.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
It's not a healthy life. Most of them would say. Few of them can keep it. Some of the guys were able to continue their life and still do okay, but it's a different life. So the reason why I'm saying this is for you. Here's a guy and his brother living in Georgia, go to Spain. This is not a UFC market. And then you guys through YouTube, watching videos, you train independently on your own.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
And then you come up and then fighter of the year, undefeated. Now you're at a place, lightweight, about to have a big fight, hopefully soon. We'd love to see that fight happen this year.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
What do you think about Zelensky, Putin? There's how the world sees it, but then you're in the region. They see your face is saying something, though. Look how fat he looks.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
What do you think is unique about Charles' style? Because Charles, you know his history. It's very interesting, the way he came at the beginning and then he...
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
reputation he changed his reputation and you would think he was going to be losing it and he won with michael chandler and he had a few very good back-to-back-to-back wins that were unbelievable the way he recreated himself but what's your opinion on his style of fighting i like him of course he he has a
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
It's ten losses. Go to his Wikipedia rap just to see how it is because I've seen this guy's story. But the 10 losses, a lot of them are go back down. By submission, by knockout, and won by decision. But you wouldn't want to fight Armand?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Got it. Yeah, it'll be... It'll be interesting to see what happens. The thing with him is he's 28 years old. You guys are similar ages. He's also young. Charles is 35, so 28, 28.

"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
He needs one or two fights before he fights you. He's Armenian, by the way. You ever fought an Armenian? What? Have you ever fought an Armenian?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
No?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Armenians.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You look Armenian. Yeah? Yeah. I mean, you're a good-looking Armenian is what you are. You're a very good-looking guy. Thank you. It's from the same region. My mother's side, they're from Baku, Azerbaijan. Baku, Azerbaijan, yeah. Baku, Azerbaijan. So they, after the whole, everything.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Right. All in the same region. Do you follow any of the politics? Like what's going on with Ukraine and Russia? Do you follow any of that stuff or not really? Yeah, a little bit. What do you think about it? What do you think about what's going on there? What do you think about Zelensky, Putin? There's how the world sees it, but then you're in the region, right? You're there.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
So in America, Putin's a bad guy. Let me tell you this, this, this, and that. He started the war. Zelensky, all he wants is money. He's bad. He just keeps taking money. What do you think about what's going on there?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
When you were coming up, was he somebody you looked up to? Were you like, you know, was Conor your guy? Were you a fan of his when you were coming up as a young fighter?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Is there a, where's Khabib and Islam, where are they from?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Well, I mean, you know, when you watch Zelensky at first, everybody's like, whoa, Putin invaded. What's that all about? And then as it gets deeper and deeper and you hear the stories, the money being funneled through, constantly wanting the money to continue, coming up here talking to the president as if America needs to give him more money, disrespecting the U.S. president a little bit.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
on the way he handled himself at the White House. He has lost all credibility with a lot of people in America. Most Americans now don't fully support and trust Zelensky. They see Putin as exactly who he is. He's a Russia loyalist, number one. He's an old school guy. But you know what you get with him. You know who Putin is.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I think the history is a little bit complicated. When you go back and you read about the fact that U.S. made a promise when Putin went to Clinton, it's like, hey, I'd like to join NATO. Would you guys want to entertain the idea? And it's like, yeah, let me call you back. Calls him back five minutes. Not right now. Putin wanted to join NATO. Why don't you want him to join NATO?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Because if they don't join NATO, you need war so you can make more money. So you need a bad guy. So you want to kind of isolate Putin to the side and...
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
You think they would want Putin to join NATO?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Sure, I get that. No, listen... I lived in Iran. We had a war with Saddam Hussein, Iraq, and Jimmy Carter in the U.S. I understand. Like, I'm... There is emotion here. I grew up with, you know, Christian family in a country where 99% were Muslims in Iran. I saw what they did to Christians. I have memories of that. I didn't leave at two years old or four years old. I left at almost 11 years old.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
So those memories stay. They're in the blood. They don't go away. I have mine as well on experiences. But to me, I think sometimes I sit there and I wonder that they need a bad guy for them to... Think about it this way. What has been the biggest boxing fight of all time that made the most money? It was Floyd against Pacquiao, yeah.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
What is the biggest, Rob, can you pull up what is the biggest boxing pay, actual money, pay of all time? You know, I think it's Conor against Conor.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Do you watch closely to make sure you, as you're going through it, Are you also watching in very detailed on the decisions you're making to see how you're living? Because you're watching, okay, this is what this guy did right. That's what this guy did wrong. Are you studying everybody to see what for yourself to be protected of?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I'm going to tell you the point I'm making to you here. That's number one.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Okay, so number six is, go back up, Ron. Six is De La Hoya against Mayweather. Good fight. Go to the next one. Okay. Floyd, Canelo, go to the next one. Both of those he made fun of him because he would wear the Cinco de Mayo. Conor McGregor. Who's that fight with? Is that with Mayweather? Yes. Okay, what's the next one? And then Pacquiao. Okay, that's one of them.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
And then Mayweather again with Pacquiao. What's the first one? I'm actually curious now. What's the first one? Who's that with? Is that Conor?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Okay. So do you remember... $275 million, a billion dollars in earnings, one fight.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
One billion dollars in earnings, one fight, right? Okay. The reason why this did so well is because everybody was convinced they hated each other. They needed an enemy. Okay. Okay. So my opinion, Ilya. There's a lot of money being made when there's wars. Who makes money? Weapons. A lot of good weapons being sold. If there's no war, they don't make money.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Just like in UFC, if there's not a black, for example, what's going to get more eyeballs? You against Charles or you against Islam?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Of course. Why? Because it's more personal. Dagestan against Georgia against, are you kidding me? That could be like, but why? Because it's emotion. It's here. So then people are going to come and see more pay-per-view. Money is going to be made. Of course. It's a great business model. I totally get it. End of the year, Jon Jones against Aspinall, right?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Everybody wants to see that heavyweight fight to see if it's going to take place or not. John wants money for it because it's probably going to be his last fight. If that happens, that fight's going to be insane, right? Okay. If all of a sudden Putin's in NATO and he is now, there's peace in the world and no issues, how do you sell stuff? Who made money with Ukraine and Russia, the war?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Who makes money when there's this stuff with Israel, Iran, Hamas? Who makes money when Iran and, you know, Iraq or Afghanistan? Who made money? These guys that make weapons. It's a business model. So I think a part of it is, yes, Putin is a loyalist to him, KGB background. I know his background, what his loyalty is to him.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
But I'm also not naive to believe that there's people in the back that go like this. Hey, Ilya, let me tell you what he said about you. Hey, let me say what he said about you. And they're poking you, right, to upset you. Why? Because it sells more. So they can't have all these guys get along because then those guys don't make money. And these are big contracts.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Do you know who's the first company that came in on the contract with Ukraine after all the damages that happened in Ukraine? Did you see a company came out and they got a $400 billion contract to fix Ukraine?

"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Right here. So you hear the story about BlackRock announces new investment initiative to rebuild Ukraine. Well, why rebuild it? Why rebuild it? But you need war to rebuild. Of course. You need damages to rebuild. So I am just as careful with the money people that want to see war as I am with world leaders like Putin, Xi, all the other guys. Both of them you have to be careful with.

"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Maybe let me explain it a different way to you. Khabib against Conor, the fight. Who fought for money, who fought for heart? For money, Conor. For heart, Khabib. Okay. So Putin against the people that sell weapons.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Who's fighting for his country? Who's fighting for money? See, that's the difference.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
A lot of money. It's in the billions on top of billions. And I'm not talking about Russia or Ukraine. I'm talking about all the people that make those weapons. Okay. The general dynamics. You can list the name of the companies that these guys that sell the weapons. That's a business model. Do you know who Eisenhower is? No. The president of U.S. Eisenhower? No.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
No, okay, so when he was... Show me the face, maybe. He was a former general many years ago. This is before my time and your time. This was a long time ago. So this guy died in 1969. I was born in 78, so this is before my time. When he was done, this guy was a... Was he a four-star general, Rob, or a five-star general? Can you go a little bit lower? Five-star. He was a five-star general.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
I mean, you know what five-star is like? Yeah, I can imagine. We don't have a lot of... I don't know how... Type in how many five-star generals America's had. How many five-star generals has America had? I think it's a few. Okay, there you go. George C. Marshall, Douglas MacArthur, Eisenhower, Henry H. Arnold, and Omar Bradley. Five of them.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Eisenhower is the only one from the five that becomes a president. When he's done being a president, he's given his last speech. He gives this famous speech that everybody always talks about. And he says, this is the speech right here. I'm very curious about this one. Yeah, can you play it, Rob?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Large arms industry. Composite arms like they're selling weapons. It's a large weapons industry. Keep going.

And when going with someone like you, because I think you said one time, did you say you want to make more money than Ronaldo? I think you said you want to make more money than Ronaldo. I want to make more money than everyone. Why is that? And how are you going to do it?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Go back, Rob. The acquisition. So this is very important. I want to explain this part to you. Humberto, can you come here and explain this? Unwarranted influence. Humberto, can you come in here just to explain this part? I think he's going to come here if you can. Can you just translate this part if you could, if you want to give him the mic? So when he's saying it, just translate the key words.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566

"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Because I watched, I had Khabib on, I don't know when it was. I did an interview with Khabib four years ago. Could have been three years ago, maybe four or five years ago, probably four years ago. Pull up the date, Rob, to see when this is. What is the date on this here?
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Okay. I thought it was a lot longer than that. So that's what, Rob? A year and a half ago? Yep. Soon to be two years. Okay. I had him on and I watched, there's a clip. Rob, if you have the clip of Khabib being asked about you. And he's asking a question about whether you're ready. And I'm sure you've seen this yourself.

I don't know if you've seen it or not. If you haven't Rob, I want to text it over to you. There's an interview he's being asked about whether you're ready to fight, um, whether you've earned the right to fight for the number one spot. Have you seen this clip yet of Khabib talking about you or no?

PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Yeah. I understand what he's saying, but I tell you who I want to see as a fan. I'm talking purely as a fan. If there is the fight with you and Islam, That could be one of the biggest pay-per-views if that takes place.
PBD Podcast
"I'll Submit Him" – Ilia Topuria CALLS OUT Islam Makhachev, OPENS UP On Putin & Russia | PBD Podcast | Ep. 566
Can you look at that, Rob? I'm curious now because Arman is number two. Arman, number two. So would you fight an Arman before you go? Let's just say Dana says, I want you to fight Arman before you fight Islam. Would you entertain that? He wouldn't tell me that. He wouldn't tell you that? No. Dana would say Islam. he would say for the belt. He would say for the belt? Yeah.

I'm not in your world. Do you normally make the call and tell Dana or do you kind of do the podcast and kind of find a way that the video makes it to Dana for him to know or does he call you and tell you?

See if you can pull it off.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
It's not every day we have a guest on that trains intelligence agencies. So think about DIA or CIA. That's what our guest today, Chase Hughes, does. And by the way, it was so interesting talking to him. Of course, I had him react to Diddy's interview on Breakfast Club when he was asked if he killed Tupac. And he breaks down his body language.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Yes, did we have him react to the envelope that was given to President Bush, to Obamas, to Clintons, to see? Yes, he reacted to it. However, what if I told you... He's going to break down by where you have a lot of wrinkles on to say if you smile a lot, if you're curious a lot, and if you're a psychopath, purely based on the wrinkles on your face.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
How many questioned it? How many said, no, I don't want to do it? And what was the incentive for the student to do this, to continue doing this? There wasn't an incentive.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So I would have to trust to see that there is some sort of authority and somebody I'm trusting that's doing this. But there would have to be credibility with the individual that's asking me to continue doing this.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Yes. The theory I hear with this, I think we spoke about it with one of the mobsters that we had on the podcast, was it's a lot easier when somebody's giving you an order to kill someone because you're not doing it. I need you to take out Johnny. I'm not doing it. You told me to do it. So great, I'll go and take him out. So I got 18 hits. Not really, I don't have 18 hits.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So you may not want to watch this because you may watch this and you may have a big argument with your husband. You can say, babe. According to this guy, you may be a psychopath or you don't smile enough. We broke down a lot of different things as we're going through it. I asked him a question.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
It's 18 hits that were ordered for me to go and do. Hey, take the shot. Like in this movie Homestead, the father tells the boy to take the shot. And the boy kills a person in the movie Homestead. And the boy doesn't know how to deal with it. But he took the shot, not because he took the shot. He took the shot because the father told him to take the shot. Now, the part I want to know about is
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
The 33% of people that didn't continue, 67% that did, the 33 that didn't, what did they learn about them? Was there a certain profile? This doesn't make any sense to me. Was it they're questioning authority? What did they learn about the people that didn't continue?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
One of the things he helps is helping executives hire C-suite executives that are part of multi-billion dollar companies. And he broke down to one question he asks before he hires them to identify if people are good people to hire or not, and when he helps with lawyers and they're interviewing jurors, he said to know whether we keep certain jurors or not, there's one question we ask.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
There's another word for that as well, white coat syndrome. Nocebo. Right. Staying on this topic, I want to go to another one. I want to finish it up with this one here on parenting. So what other mistakes do parents make when parenting a child? I mean, this is a very interesting point you made that, hey, That doctor you're paying, you're paying them. They work for you.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So what do you want to learn from them while you're with them? It's a different mindset instead of, hi, doctor, authority, yes, okay, I'll do that. Why do I need to do that? Does this work? Why would I take this? Why would I do that? Why are they saying this? Like you're teaching a different mindset. What else are you teaching kids?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Read the book, bought 1,000 copies, gave it to everybody. It's an incredible book. Jim Stovall. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
This guy's a body language specialist. He breaks down psyops with what's going on with drones today or Luigi Mangione or the cyber truck. He breaks it down in a way where you're going to look at psyops in a very, very different way. With that being said, something tells me You're really going to enjoy this sit-down with Chase Hughes.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And when it comes down to... And what's the main objective of moving slower? Does it mean you're in control? Does it mean you... Nothing rattles you. What is the significance of that?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
If I can get you to control your physiology, your psychology is going to follow next. Yeah. I mean, part of that is in sales as well, right? But for kids, going back to the kids, and you're telling young boys, they're energized, they're running around, they're fired up, they're fighting, they're competing, they're playing sports, all this stuff. Move slower, right?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
What is, tell me from, because I agree. I'm just trying to see where you're going with it for the audience to see this part. What is the benefit of them doing that?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Very interesting when it comes down to that with parenting, especially parenting. The moving slower part, because even when I think about people, you watch them how they interview, right? You watch certain people how they're interviewed. You watch certain people the way they speak, right? Because this would be completely against what a Tony Robbins would be. Moves fast, talks fast, energy high.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
But yet he still is under control. If you talk to people who are on the set with Tom Cruise, walks fast, moves fast. But if you watch his interview with Matt Lauer, which I'm sure you've seen many, many times, you know, when he's talking about Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, you don't know what you're talking about. I've spent 20 years studying this topic. Right. You know which one I'm saying. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
How do you explain that with the moment of Matt Lauer and Tom Cruise where he all of a sudden gets into a very elevated state? And this is a guy that studied body language with Scientology, Dianetics, L. Ron Hubbard, David Miscavige. In that community, they teach this a lot.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Right.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So what would you say for some people like a Tony Robbins or a Tom Cruise? Would you say they're... not applying and it's working for them? And does this apply to everybody or it's different for different personalities?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

This person is an authority figure.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
The last two are interesting. So I get gratitude, enjoyment. Enjoyment means this guy's enjoying his life. He enjoys what he does. What is the benefit of having that energy?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
There's something very attractive about that. And by the way, you said something. I want to go back to the Matt Lauer, Tom Cruise, and I want to see you react to it because you're a body language one. But I want to stay on this. So, you know, you said there are people that you watch and be like, something's off, right? Yeah. Something's different.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I would have guys in sales that I would work with, and I would watch them on stage, and they were good on the big stage. But then behind closed doors, something was off. You know, what they said didn't match what they were doing. There was a contradiction in the behavior. They were telling other people to go prospect, but they were not doing it.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
They were telling other people to work hard, but they were not doing it. And that, you know... What's the word? Not hypocrisy. That contradiction was shown in the action. Can somebody say something long enough over and over and over again and not live it? Or will there eventually be a crack and a break in the individual?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
How you doing? Good, man. It's good to have you on. Thanks for having me on. Yeah, I was telling you six weeks ago, I watched this video of yours about the drones and all this stuff and, hey, how to identify PSYOP and... I'm sitting there watching this. I'm like, this is great. And I talked about it on the podcast exactly the way you broke it down and then looked into your background.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Did you ever read Psycho-Cybernetics? Oh, yeah. What a book.

Yeah, because to me, you know, in the previous company I was a part of, there were, when I was younger, my favorite speaker was the guy that would move fast and walk around and run around all the time. And then the more I matured, I was no longer as in tune with the way he delivered his message. It didn't work anymore. It worked more when the other guy would speak and he would get up. Hi.

I just want to kind of see when you're studying the body language of, you know, Didion, when he's being asked about Tupac, you know, how he reacts to it. I want to know what you say about it. But if you think so. How do you tell apart between a psychopath and a sincere person? Because they're so close, right? It's tough.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So for me, I've been in sales for 25 years, and I have had relatives that were bipolar.

PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

If you go on YouTube, just put that same thing in YouTube, and he explains it in a video. It's still copy-paste. It should come up. And it's a short clip. I think it's that one.

Okay, so, all right, this person takes responsibility. When you said this, you made me think about somebody I had. Literally, I told the story on Manect yesterday, which, by the way, Chase, you would be great on Manect. But a guy asked me a question about, hey, I'm hiring this person. This is what this person is saying to me. How should I handle this? Is this a good sign or not?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

I didn't work out with that company. But I know for a fact we're going to do this because you're such a great leader and I can't wait to work for you. I said, I'll never forget. I'm at Oheka Castle.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

I used to be with this other insurance company, and those guys weren't as great leaders as the way you just handled this meeting. And I used to be with this other company for six years and this other company for three years. And the more he's saying this to me, and he finishes this, I said, can I tell you something? He said, yes.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I said, in the next two to four years, I will be the guy you will be speaking negatively about in another company. Because all those three companies you just talked about, they all have great leaders. He said something about Prime America, New York Life, and Transamerica World Financial Group. I said, are you kidding me? They're all stacked with great leaders.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

What's the lady's name? Psychopath woman? The – Not woman, girl, 14, 15 years old. Erin Cathy. Erin Cathy. Can you tell us about Erin Cathy?

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
None of it has to do with language.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
No.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Just watching. What it made me think about is the lady who recorded George Floyd while the knee was on his neck and everybody had a camera on recording it. Yeah. And we have incidents like this with many different events.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Right. So I don't want, Hey, get back, get back, get back. Because if you do, you could go to jail and get in trouble. Right. But sometimes you'll see a fight taking place in high school and kids are beating up the boys, beating up somebody. Everybody's got their phone out recording instead of wanting to jump in and help out.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So that's the example you're referencing. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You're talking about Matt Liversberger, his cyber truck exploding from the Trump Tower. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So pure psychopath. Um, Are you born that way? Because, you know, when you think about this, again, I keep quoting this guy over and over again who he was the last guy, the first guy that would interview people, Jim Clemente. I don't know if you know who Jim Clemente is. He'd be the first guy to interview. This guy was an FBI guy.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
He was an FBI profiler who would interview somebody who just killed their spouse. And he'd be the first person to do it. And I asked him a question. I said, so what causes these guys to do it, the psychopaths? Specifically, I asked him about serial killers. He says, genetics loads the gun, personality and psychology aim, experience pulls the trigger. From your experience, that's what he said.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So again, genetics loads the gun. Personality and psychology aims, life experiences pulls the trigger.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Can a psychopath be saved? I don't think so. Okay, got it.

All February. Wow. A lot of good Februaries. So, you know, I'm just trying to see if there's any kind of, one of the things I saw about a profile, and I don't know if I would even categorically put him in psychopath, but while you're in business, you follow these guys. They're so good at making others feel sorry for them. Yeah. And sympathizing. You don't know what I went through.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
If you only knew, you know, like, you know, you know, certain people don't like compliments. It's just like, don't flatter me. I don't want compliments. It's just, I'm good. Leave me alone. I mean, if it comes from good people that are close to you, I'll take it. But it's like, I'm good. Yeah. Don't feel sorry for me. We grew up in the never show hurt.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You know, my dad was the complete opposite side of that. But whenever you see somebody that is really always trying to make people around and they're so good at it. Yeah. at how to get people to say, what a poor guy. Man, poor you. I can't believe she went through this. Unbelievable, right? And it works in so many different places until you meet somebody that's like, Yeah, no.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And by the way, it's not easy to do so, but if you accept it and you stay in it, they control you. And it's a lot of pain to go through while you're in it. Nowadays, more than ever, the brand you wear reflects and represents who you are. So for us... If you wear a Future Looks Bright hat or a Valuetainment gear, you're telling the world, I'm optimistic.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I'm excited about what's going to be happening. But you're a free thinker. You question things. You like debate.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Now let's go back to, we talked about psyops at the beginning, and we've gone to a bunch of different personalities right now. You know, when you think about CIA...
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Oh, it's the drones going out. The average person sees, you know, with the Cybertruck and the whole ID that you're talking about and then Sean Ryan and his crew talking about that email.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And you see what happened with the fellow who was the ISIS, the truck drives into New Orleans on the first and same thing happened, not the same things, an event happens in Vegas, Matt Liversburg, and it's like, wait a minute, why would he be capable of doing that? Guy sends me a message on LinkedIn. This is I've known this guy. This is about Matt. This is about the guy that was a Greenbrae.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And I think Matt even did a show history channel show with Tim Kennedy. I don't know if you saw that or not. So I saw a clip on. Right. I saw a clip as well on X. That's what that's what I saw. So he sends me a message, this guy. And he says, look, I served with this guy. Matt and I were stationed in Germany together. We were both on special forces teams.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Our teams trained and worked a lot together. I spent four weeks with him in Bordeaux, and in language training program, we drank Bordeaux pretty much every night. His wife came and visit, and he says, he was a good man, a leader, a mentor, and a father. I've spent time with him and his wife. This makes no sense to me. He had to have been targeted, okay? A lot of people are saying this about him.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Now, Luigi Mangione, okay? Boom, boom. Everything is good, right? Yeah. And then, but he's missing the last 90 days. So you know when he went and what his motive was. He had some stuff because he followed libertarians. He followed 70 people on Twitter. I was one of them he followed. But the range of people he followed are... Well, you must be involved. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
But the range of people you studied, you would look at and say, hey, okay, those are guys you followed that teach independent critical thinking. They're not like victimhood. Let me tell you, they're after you. It's not fair, all this other stuff, right? So, you know, you hear MKUltra.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
When the average person sees it, they look at it at face value. Here's what happened. How do you view it when you see it?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Movie came out on K-Ultra, not a good movie, but somebody needs to do a good movie on that that I think could do well. Yeah, he follows Bobby Kennedy. He follows a bunch of different people, right? Brad Weinstein, we've had him on. He and I spoke the other day. Interesting people that this guy follows. John McAfee is definitely one of the interesting ones. We had him on like eight years ago.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
But you see these patterns with events like this happening. John F. Kennedy, where you hear the shooter comes out and takes a shot and takes out You know, it's like, wait, how did that happen? What do we not know about CIA and their capabilities? What do we not know? Because what we do know is the stuff that we read about. And you're a guy that's worked intelligence, you know, not intelligence.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You did some warfare, spy warfare, and you're training these types of things, the methods. I think there's even a video about you that you made that 25-way CIA, you know, trains their agents, whatever it may be. But what is the capability of CIA and their training that we have that we don't know about?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Hires prostitutes to give LSD drugs And then on the other side, there's somebody watching it? Yeah. Okay, so continue.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So definitely interested in it. So whatever you send, we'll post it below. But personality modification.

He wrote a book about this whole thing.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So where are you going with this? You're saying the possibility of MK Ultra to get them in a state to cause them to kill someone that nothing in the history of their lives, there's never been a pattern that this person was capable of doing something like this independently. No felony, no criminal record. All of a sudden, this person decides to take their lives.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
They're able to get somebody to that point of doing something like that.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So when you were telling a story on MKUltra, you brought somebody up. Who did you bring up? You brought up... Just now? Yeah. Sidney Gottlieb. Dr. George Astabrooks. No, you brought up somebody that you said Sirhan Sirhan. And who were we just talking about that actually did this? So when you see somebody like a Matt Liversberger on What Happened? Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And Sean Ryan and them and Sam read the email that he sent on the Sunday, right? I don't know what the day was. Yeah, Sean. On the previous day. Do you think that's a case of this or no, that's a different case? He was going through a challenge in time and he wanted to kind of make a statement with it. I think it's a different case. What is a case of MKUltra that could be a possibility of MKUltra?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Bobby Kennedy. What else?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So dissect it. You said the ID that came out, right? These different things that came out. Yeah. Psychoanalyze it. What do you think happened there? I don't know. I'm no expert. What are the possibilities? Like maybe it could be this, maybe it could be this, maybe it could be this.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
What are you saying?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Okay, so let me go to a different one here is, Proxy, okay? We've had a lot of, you know, in siblings, proxy could be siblings instigating a fight. If there's three siblings, one instigated a fight between the other two, right? Hey, I think he was wearing your socks today. I think he wore your cologne today. Hey, you know, what do you think about the fact that this?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You know, sometimes I don't think he appreciates you. Whatever, the proxies that happen at siblings level, right? Yeah. And then it happens in company, sports teams. Coach just doesn't, you know, I don't know why he doesn't put you in the game more. I think you should. And boom, friction there. You move down one more. I got another spot to move up.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Proxy at a higher level of countries that create proxy wars and instigate additional, like even right now, hey, there could be a potential nuclear attack and Russia's going to be behind it. oh my God, Russia's really going to be behind it, but it's not really Russia. It's really internally being done that's using this or using that.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
How do you, if any way, how do you size those up and how are those done?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Of course, yeah.

I think it was Sinclair or something like that. It's being fed from the top to them. So let's go through a couple of these clips here, Rob. If you can pull up. First one I want to go through is Diddy. So here's Diddy Combs. He is on Breakfast Club. And Charlamagne Tha God is asking a question. A lot of people, I've interviewed a lot of people that claim Diddy took Tupac out.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Okay, he's the one that killed him. Now again, that's claims that have been made, right? I just want you to give your feedback on his body language when... Charlemagne asked, there's a documentary out that says you may have been behind the Tupac murder. And then watch how Diddy responds and what commentary you would have on this. Go ahead, Rob.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Was it? Yeah. Interesting. So in this case, if you're watching this, what do you think?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So you're calling Diddy a chihuahua. I mean, he's going to be upset about that. No, I didn't. I didn't do that. You just called Diddy a chihuahua. For the record, I did not say that. So you're saying Diddy is scared. He is scared. That's why he's reacting the way he does. I don't mean by the animal side. I mean the fact that he is scared. That's why he's moving faster.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Interesting.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
In this case, what would your conclusion come up with? I'm trying to figure out what happened to my guy, Tupac, man. That's what I'm trying to figure out.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So you got one incentive. Who benefits from this, right? And you were going somewhere. So the business format is... Here's aliens, crisis, scare everybody. Hey, potentially we need, because of this, and then you bring those.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Okay, let's go to the next one. Rob, the next one is, I showed this clip to Jim Jordan. And I'm sure you know who Jim Jordan is. So there's a clip of President Bush and those guys getting an envelope. Oh, yeah. So I played it for Jim Jordan. And he is sitting there. He's like, I don't know what's going on. What do you think?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
It's the best clip to watch because he is oblivious when he doesn't know what's taking place here. And again, most people don't. But I wonder... If you watch this, what do you think is really going on here? Everybody's being handed an envelope. Everyone reacts in a different way. Hillary Clinton acts like a pro. Obama acts like a pro. Jeb Bush and Barbara do not.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Jeb Bush acts like an amateur here. Rob, if you want to go ahead and play the clip, go for it. Like that bass. What's going on here? It's bizarre. It's bizarre.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So you're saying the level of advancement of the way they would do it is, boom, claim this guy's a whistleblower, that he's going up against the government, where in reality he's actually representing them. Trick the populace to believe in that he is on your side, and be careful with this, and the whistleblower,
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
For context, this is at their father's funeral, right? This is at, Rob, is this George Bush Sr. 's funeral that this is being handed out to? And even Mother shows it to Jeb, and then Jeb reacts, and George Bush, look at his lips, the mouth, movement, but he's still holding it together. Yeah, did George Bush get one too? I don't know if he did.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I'm going to start asking people about that. How do you like your job? If you make that face, look, maybe you've got to go find a different job. It's a good one. We should take a camera and interview all your guys. There's about 32% of you guys are not happy to want to go get another job. We've got to let them go, guys. Go find a different place. So if that's the case, lip reading.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Okay, the lip, the one you're talking about. Does that mean George Bush didn't like his job of being a president? Or does it mean George Bush is not happy being there right now?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Is that what you read about? I don't know. Okay, I don't know. And the only thing with Hillary is if you look at the way Hillary, Rob, if you want to turn off the audio, just put the way Hillary picks it up. I don't know why she lifts it. If you lift it, the people behind you can't see it. So if you press play with Hillary...
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So that part is fine, but with the envelope, either she has a tough time, like she needs glasses, or she needs to get a surgery done with her eyes, but look at that. So the four people behind you can all see what you're looking at. And then if you look at it, it's got to be one word or two words. Yeah. So it's not like a sentence. It's got to be short. Dear Hillary, you're amazing.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
We will be having dinner later on tonight at Capitol Grill in the corner room. Yeah. Would you like steak, lobster, or chicken? It's not that.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I've done no investigation. This could even be nothing based on the body language. The only person that to me is, I'd love to see Jeb Bush play poker. I mean, look at that. Yeah, that'd be tough. It'd be great. It'd be entertaining.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
increases confidence in saying, yeah, don't trust the government when it comes down to this, but this is what's really going on, which in reality, that's exactly what the government wants to relate to you and then trick the populace into distracting them from what the really is going to be. Is that kind of what you're saying? That's the business model?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I think on the Bush, I agree. I think that, to me, can be seen because he's not looking at the envelope. But if you look at mom and son, youngest son, they have the same reaction. Mouth open is shocked. Which mom? Laura? Yeah. I'm sorry, wife. And wife and President Bush, the son's wife, and Jeb, their reaction is shocked with the mouth being open.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You know, it's another thing that's very interesting is that when you are in limelight, everyone is judging you. Everybody's got their eyes on you. It's constant. And this is at the highest level. You had a job that only 45 people have had the job. I don't know what the number is because Trump's 45 and 47. It's 46 people have had the job, let's just say. So all eyes on you, good, bad, ugly.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You can't hide anywhere. And you learn to lock it down.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Or beyond.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So you could take this a few times and then you can... The effects could be permanent. Yeah.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Yeah. Have you ever taken it?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Rob already placed an order. They're good.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You probably indirectly just sold so much of this you don't even know. There's probably numbers of orders being made right now. I should have gotten affiliate link. I should have gotten affiliate link. No, because people that wish they had the – for somebody that's in the – I'll never forget when Joe and I were doing a podcast and we talk about how you handle negative comments.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And then Joe says, yeah, but you can't compare it to us because we already have so much of it that it's like at this point you're going through it. A comedian who has spoken God knows how many times on stage – You know, if you don't learn about this, you ain't gonna make it in comedy for 10 plus years if you don't learn how to control your emotions, how to handle the stress that comes.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So the public speaking, same thing as well. interviews, all that stuff, but even in sales. But if the average person doesn't know it, you're saying this could help them lower the temperature and anxiety? Without being psychoactive to where you're going to need it for the rest of your life. So it's not like this is a, what's the Prozac or Zoloft. This isn't that.

Do you have any examples of it?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I think that's the difference. What prompted you to say this? Is it because we were speaking about public speaking fears and then you went into this. Why did you transition into this story?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Do you have an exercise of not having any facial reaction? Are you mentally yourself aware that you don't want to have any facial reaction when you're speaking?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
What do you mean? You. Yeah. You don't show a lot of reactions, right? You're very stoic. Is that intentional? No. It's not. I always thought I was more expressive. You're being sarcastic. What an asshole. This is intentional, right? No. Stop it.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Man, you're teasing me now. I wish I could airdrop you a video. This is a sigh up, Rob. Because you're sitting there so stoic, and I'm like, is that a learned skill for you, or is this your natural state you're always in? It may be.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
No, I think what gives you a certain authority, which I like, is the fact that you're stoic. You're here. And that's power. Maybe more measured. Maybe that's a better word. But, you know, because I think sometimes it's kind of like this. You know, a... A guy, so you got, a girl comes to the table. There's five guys, okay? They're all 17 years old. Hot girl shows up.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And it's like, oh my God, oh my, look at her. And one guy's just sitting there. Hi, what's your name? Yeah. And she's kind of like, thank God one of these five isn't freaking nervous as hell. What's your name? My name is Chase Hughes. I am very stoic. But Patrick is an asshole. How are you doing? That was my line. Yeah. That was my line in high school. That was my line.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
No, but the point is that overreaction to things you don't have. And I think that's good. Maybe it's a composure. I think that's very good. I think that's what we talked about earlier. Composure is contagious. I think that's a very good thing.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Are you making more money than ever before? Yeah. But money's not a driver to you? Not really. Is it a top three?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
It is? Yeah. At this phase? Yeah. Okay. And why do you not like being a business person? Maybe what's the definition of a business person to you?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Yeah. How many kids do you have? Four. Okay. Me too. We both have four. What part of parenting did you not like when the kids were younger?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And so you mentioned Stephen Greer. Why did you bring up Stephen Greer? Did you bring him up because you believe he is a psyop? Or did you bring him up to say, no, that's a guy that I actually believe that what he's saying is correct?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Making lunches. You didn't like that?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
That's about it. That's about it. Changing diapers didn't bother you? No. pooping on you, peeing on you, sick, saliva, you know, coughing, that didn't do nothing for you? No. Okay. So, you know, for me in the family life, there's certain things that I'm like, babe, I'm just not going to do that. where I have the resources that I can hire someone to do. I can hire a tutor.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Doing homework, you can hire a tutor. If you have the resources, hire the tutor, have somebody work with them. But there are certain things as a parent that you can't match up and assign to somebody else that we have to do. There are certain things that we just can't do it.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Hey, can you do me a favor and talk to my daughter every night for 15 minutes to make sure she's good emotionally and if a guy or anything did anything to her? Because I don't have time. I've got to do a conference call later on tonight. We can't match that up. I read a book many years ago that was called Thank God It's Monday, written by a psychologist. It's a very old book.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
that these men who can't wait to be Monday to be away from the family. It's like, dude, I'm so freaking glad to be away from the family. This is not the one. It's a very old one. Wow. Yeah. So the psychology finally realizes all these marriages and people he's sitting down. If you go to images, Rob, you'll see it. Now go back to images and I'll show you which one it is. It's a very, very old book.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
I'll find it. I'll find it and I'll post it. But it's a very, very old book called Thank God It's Monday. And it was about, so he finally realized, he says, you know, marriages that worked and relationships that worked, the husband, you needed five to 15 minutes of one-on-one time with each of your kids and spouse every day. That's all it was. How was your day? One-on-one. We can't match that up.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Yep. Right? Like my week starts Monday morning, all the businesses that we run, the business units, We get all the updates, but that's collective.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
That's such a fascinating book from 40 years ago that was written that was, I think, recommended to me by a man named Craig. Very good book. And so the more I learned about family, parenting, spouse, husband, what can I not have somebody else do, right? These are things that you have to be thinking. Same with the business. In a business, then it becomes startup.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Newborn, you have to do a lot of stuff. Then when the company is a little bit more established, you can hire people. and train and have somebody do certain tasks that you don't want to do. And then a part of it becomes at what phase of your life you're at. Like we consult for 10,000 businesses from 60 plus countries and we'll do engagements with them.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And you'll see a lot of times where CEOs are like, dude, I'm so done. I'm so done doing this. I'm like, so tell me why. I've been working this thing for 30 years. I'm already worth 50 million. What is another 50 million worth to me right now? Nothing. My kids are this age. I just want to go see what this guy's going to do.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531

PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Because that's why I ask, where's the money for you? You said it's a top three, but it's not the main driver, right? But if I'm in startup phase, every time in startup phase, I don't have a choice but to get back to being the guy that is needed on a daily basis. My insurance company needs me maybe two hours to five hours a week.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
And that's the biggest business out of all the businesses that I just sold. But that's because I've hired so many and invested so much into technology. So for where you're at, do you know your next five moves with the company? Is it a bill to sell? Is it a legacy thing? Is it a purely income play? Is it something that you want to step away and kind of go into your passion of content creation?

Is the momentum of clients right now paying you so much that if you step away, it could be a 50% drop off in revenue and you can't afford to do that because of maintaining the lifestyle? There's so many questions I have to do a needs analysis on to see what's the best thing for you to do now.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
You don't want to hire another man to tell her, honey, just so you know, Chase loves you. Yeah. And he just wants me to tell you you're amazing.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
He says hi. He says goodnight. He told me to kiss you on the forehead. You're amazing. Okay. But the point really with that is sometimes you don't have the luxury to hire yet. Right. The one thing that most people don't give enough credit to is an incredible EA can change your life. An incredible EA can make the load of life and pressures of company and everything so much better.

When I was coming up in the insurance company I was building and I was at the phase where I was on the road six months out of the year, I had four assistants. Oh, my God. Was there a hierarchy to them? There was one that was ahead, but it was, you know, two of them would report to me directly, and then the other two were under the other two. But they had certain responsibilities.

These are the gifts that I bought for. This is coming up. You want to write a card real quick. I felt like I was freer. And in life, in the business side, when I gauge, like if I, without saying names, Can you think of people you hired that immediately stress tension went down dramatically?
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Don't give the full name, but think about a person you hired where you're like, after I hired her or after I hired him, right? That's how I hired. But can you think of people you hired that tension went up? Oh, yes. See? Yeah. So for me, I want to find more. Like I remember when I hired Tom Ellsworth. Pillow got softer overnight. It was amazing.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
First real executive I hired that had background of executive that was helping me with org chart. We raised the first million. We raised the 10 million. He was a great board guy, contacts, relationships. I slept better because I finally had somebody to share pressure with. So that's the idea of great people you hire, somebody they can share pressure with. And then you go back to enjoying it.
PBD Podcast
"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
So it wasn't really that maybe you don't want to be a business person. It just may be the way you have hired your org chart today with the people that are working for you You're not sharing pressure enough where you're carrying it all yourself, and you've got to find a way to share that pressure and do where you shine. That could take three to six months for you to kind of work on that.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
But I think somebody like you will figure that part out because you have composure and you're stoic. I think that's going to help you out. But anyways, brother, this was amazing.

Fantastic. And you have a book, you have a book that is, you've written multiple books, but, and it's not even this one. I knew you're going to the behavior ops. This is a tough one to find. If he can go to his main account, Rob chase use, there's a couple other, there's a couple of them. They're right there. Those are the ones, the six minute x-ray rapidly heat behavior profiling. And, uh,

Ellipsis Manual, and a few other books as well. We'll put the link. Which one of these links would you like us to put below? The six-minute x-ray or? The textbook is the best.

So Vietnamese culture calls for a proper burial. So it is the Vietnamese belief that the dead must be buried in their homeland or their soul will wander aimlessly in pain and suffering. Vietnamese feel that if a person is properly buried... Then their soul wanders constantly. They can sometimes be contacted on the anniversary of their death and near where they died.

"MK Ultra Was REAL!" - Chase Hughes UNVEILS Disturbing Truth About CIA, PSYOPS, and Mind Control | PBD Podcast | Ep. 531
Vietnamese honor these dead souls on a holiday when they return on site where they died. The U.S. used this to their advantage and tricked their Vietcongs into leaving their plane, even by playing the audio recording of their dead friends. Are you kidding me? It's insane. Is that the example of what it sounds like? They actually have a recording of it?

to the folks who went to school to see all these different theories, what do they tell you when they explain it to you? What do they say to say, because right now I just went online and I typed in, which scientists agree with Terence Howard? And mainstream scientific response, Howard's views are widely rejected by academic and scientific communities.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
His interpretation of math and physics are generally considered mathematically incorrect, scientifically unfounded, right? Independent and French thinkers, they gave some folks that are on the YouTube side that do. Why the rejection? Claims. One times one equals two. And that's the most basic one, right, where it starts from there.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Eric, they have a great debate together. And it was interesting saying, I need peer review. And Eric says, you're not a peer to review what you have. And then Terrence and I start speaking, and he says, I want you to put my white papers through any kind of AI to look at it and have some folks look at it. So I said, Terrence, why don't we do this? I'm going to invite a guest.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
And it goes to some of the other theories that you have, that you guys have spoken about. Help me understand how, in your mind, to the average person who hasn't put amount of time that you have put in credibility after one times one times two, one times one equals two. How do you come up with that conclusion?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Interesting. Okay, so can we get Dr. Yu out here, Rob, if you don't mind?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
That's a problem. So then what's 1.1 times 1.1?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
So if one times one is two... that would mean that 1.1 times 1.1 would need to be bigger than 2, right?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Even for a basic, simple guy like me, let's just say if I have $1.10 in a stock, and that goes up 1.1%, what is it? $1.10 in a stock, but it goes up 1.1% rate of return in my stock portfolio. What's 1.1 of $1.10?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
He didn't know who it was going to be. We invited a current NASA employee, 17 years with NASA, Dr. U, physicist, spacecraft subsystem manager, spacecraft fluids and structure branch. He comes in, they sit down, they go through things, and I thought, He was going to correct him on everything, but he actually agreed with him on a few different things. And then we also talked about his career.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
So for example, so if I get a 1% rate of return on one, if I do the percentage on the basic 1.1 times 1.1, it's still getting me 1.21. So to me, the basics of the 1 times 1 equals 2, That throws even a regular guy like me off.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
No, I know what you're doing. I know what you're doing. But that is a whole number. A dime is still 10 cents. So 10 dimes is a dollar. So it's not the same in the dollar sense. I see what you're thinking, like 0.1 equals... A tenth of a dollar. I'm saying there's a problem with the decimal system. Yeah, but if a dime is .1 of a dollar, let's simplify it, right?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, but that's a difference. So to me, the basics of the math, when you went there one time.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
The way I look at it is to say, what's 0.1% of a penny? What's 0.1% of a penny? What's the value of a penny? What's 0.1% of a dime? It's a penny. Right. It gets right. Right. So that's the I don't look at it from the physics.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
That's right.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Point one is ten percent. Right. So if you go to the investment side, the argument of one time ones in investment stocks, bonds, mutual funds, insurance, it stops right there. But you're going out there and saying one times one equals two.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
We talked about Iron Man. He said something on Diddy I've never heard him say before. Never. I've never heard him say before. And he says, I've never done movies like this. And the reason why you never give up your man card. I'm like, Terrence, what do you mean man card? He said, you know what I'm talking about. I said, are you saying what I think you're talking about? Yes.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
You guys have never met. Never met. And you're currently working for NASA.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Okay. So I look at it more from the investment side, the math side, the financial side. But that's your theory. And by the way, Terrence, the reason why I think it's folks like you are important is very important because anybody that challenges the status quo that puts the establishment against the wall to kind of have to prove themselves, I love it. I think Bobby Kennedy did that.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
And Bobby Kennedy wasn't a scientist. He was a lawyer. And Bobby Kennedy got a lot of people in the health industry to be like, wait a minute, are we supposed to believe 100% of what Fauci is saying? We're not supposed to sit here and believe everything Fauci is saying. And he's not a health guy. So the credibility from the health... institution was like, I'm a scientist. I'm Fauci. Trust me.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
I know what I'm talking about. Bobby doesn't know what he's talking about. So I would like to see something happen here where we're seeing a lens. This is why I suggested for you and your wife to watch the, what was it? Yes.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, the Invention Secrecy Act of 1951. So let's go through that. Do you mind just taking a moment and share? You have a certain number of patents. I don't know what the number is, say 30-something patents.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Then he tells a story of the time Diddy invites him over to his house. And it got so weird that, well, you're going to have to watch it for yourself. Having said that, enjoy this podcast with the one and only Terrence Howard with an appearance by Dr. U. I think I've ever said this before.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
And the patents, are they all in the states?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Okay. 94 patents with 60. Okay. Perfect. So you've got 94 patents. What new findings, you know, what have you found where the average person can benefit from? And if you're sitting there, you said this is worth in the trillions of dollars, and you and I are speaking before, you're like, if another country gets their hands on this.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
The way that selenium... Yeah, if you can just pull up the periodic table and zoom in.

"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Okay.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias where people, Rob, it just completely disappeared on the screen. Yeah. People with low competence specific area tend to overestimate their abilities while highly competent individuals may underestimate their skills. This occurs when a lack of metacognition prevents those with low competence. So they're saying you're low competent in this topic.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
That's what they're saying.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
So everything you sent me, everything of the white papers you sent me, all of them, every one of these I have, right? Every one of these was sent to Dr. Dr. Yu. Dr. Yu has it. He's looked at him. So he'll come out here in a minute to give his perspective on this. And he's from NASA.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
But before we go there, there is a part of me that believes, you know, there are inventions that the government didn't want to bring out because, God forbid, if they did, it would decimate multi-trillion dollar industries, oil being one of them. I fully believe that. It needs to go. Huh? It needs to go. It needs to go. But, you know, who's going to release it? I don't know.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
I mean, look how long it took to find out who killed JFK. Look how long it took with Epstein and some of these lists that we are looking. Who did what to MLK? They're still hiding it, right? So for them to release it. When it comes down to Musk, what is your opinion on Elon and him being a net positive to society? Do you have an opinion on Elon?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, and I'm excited about it. And we're doing it the right way today. The reason for it is because when you and I were speaking, we're going back and forth. And, Pat, can you read this? Can you read that? Can you read this? And I'm reading it. It's as if I'm reading a different language, right, because this is not my space. I'm not in this business. I'm not in –

I'm good in numbers when it comes down to financials, but different when the numbers that we're talking about here. However, we reached out to a couple people to come down while we're having this conversation, and we wanted to get somebody qualified, so we got a hold of Dr. Wei-Ping Yu, PhD, just to kind of give you a proper introduction. This is his business card from NASA.

He's been with NASA for 17 years. His business card says physicist, and spacecraft subsystem manager, spacecraft fluid and structure branch. In a minute, we're going to have him come in.

So we'll get into that here in a minute, okay? And I'll bring him on, and he'll grab a seat right next to him. We'll get into it. However, for the audience, if you don't mind, because the first time I heard about you going this direction, I'm a big fan of your work. When you came in, the first thing I said is the character, Harvey, was it Gordon?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Dr. Yu, you read the white paper. You read all the papers here that he sent, right?

"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Did you have a chance to look through some of it?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Okay. What's your impression of what Terrence is saying here and how much credibility is there behind it?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
From fighting, right? The way you would speak, the way you would move. But this is the first time we saw you talking about you leaving Hollywood, Rob. If you want to play this clip, go for it.

Can you pull that up, Rob? Because I fully understand what he's saying, but I want to visually show it. So orbit, meaning if there is... Just look up electron orbit.

"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Here we go. After evaluating the document, Necessity to Find a Universe, here's a breakdown. Interesting idea presented. The paper introduced a wave-based mathematical framework to argue the universe must be finite. It builds on linchpin geometry.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Tetran shapes and Howard Coma ideas largely associated with Terence Audi uses concepts like wave reflection, standing waves, and energy quantization to support those claims. Critical issue, scientific inconsistencies, core mathematical flaw, one times one equals two. This claim contradicts fundamental arithmetic and is not accepted in any legitimate mathematical system.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Multiplication is defined such as 1 times 1 equals 1. Redefining this without rigorously peer-reviewed mathematical framework makes the rest of the paper logic untenable to unverified concept terms like Howard Coma, Tetran shapes, Lynchman geometry are not recognized in mainstream mathematical or physics. These concepts do not appear in peer-reviewed journals. misapplication of physical laws.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
The paper refers to wave mechanics, conservation of energy, and quantum equations, but applies them in non-standard or speculative ways. For example, replacing Planck's content with Howard's coma constant is unsubstantiated and lacks... Empirical validation. And last but not least, citation issues.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
The reference include real scientists, Einstein, Planck, alongside fictional or pseudoscientific collaborators, Howard Sealy, Yee, Yee, Yee. Yee. Yee. At all. Yeah, at all. There's no known peer-reviewed body of work by these authors. Verdict not scientifically valid.

Let me ask a question from you, Dr. Yu. Because the argument was made that peer review, you're not a peer to review, like you're not a qualified peer to review. Is that how it's seen in your world, where peer review is another person that's a qualified doctor, you know, schooling, they've done the right thing to look their...

If I'm on a set with you doing a movie, which you've been on many, many sets with some of the greatest actors of all time, and you're in the list of some of the greatest actors of all time yourself, would I meet this Terrence? If we're sitting and we're not shooting, we're sitting and we're waiting for something, are you speaking to me like this or no? No.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Do you think that's what's tied to it, doctor? Do you agree with them that it's because of a, is it just a same old, same old, you know, this is how we always do it. You're an outsider. We don't want to give you the credibility. You're not one of us. Is that what you think it is?

PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
No, it's okay. You got props.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Dr. Yu, let me ask you. Watching him speak, and he's doing what he's doing, and you say something, he answers it. You say something, he answers it. You say something, he answers it. As a self-taught guy like this, how impressive is that to you, for him to have all these theories?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Newton's law of universal gravitational states that every particle in the universe attracts every other particle with a force along a line joining them and the force is direct, inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. So you're saying that's incorrect.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Listen, listen to you guys. One, I realize I'm not a physicist. I'm not a scientist. I'm not a doctor. And the level of intellect needed for this, it's very impressive. Just listen to both of you guys. I love listening to this as well because the market's going to react to it and they're going to try to tear apart some of the argument. And that's great. That's what you want.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Where do people find all the other things for them to run through? Are all of these public or no?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Terrence, question before we wrap up here. Just a couple questions. Audience interest having nothing to do with this. More on the acting side. The movie you and I talked about, Fighting. Fighting. Because to me, I've seen you in a lot of movies, but that role was my favorite one of yours. The way you did the voice, the way you walked, the way you moved. What was the character's name, Rob?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, Harvey Borden. How did that come about, that specific character?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, that movie was phenomenal. By the way, this is a year after Iron Man, right? Because that came out in 2009. So Iron Man, I read somewhere, I almost didn't believe it, so I'm going to verify it with you. Iron Man, it says you were the highest paid guy in that movie at $4.5 million, and they only paid Robert Downey Jr. half a million. Is that accurate?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Okay, so you go on Rogan's first podcast, you guys talk, and then that leads to you going back with Rogan, with Eric Weinstein, the four-hour one that you guys did, right? And even I think Neil deGrasse Tyson did a video reacting to all the stuff that you had. Brian Keating did. As well, I asked Brian Keating about the one document that you sent to me.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Why would they do that, though?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, but when you think about movies like that, don't you think, like, the main guys make $10 million, $20 million per picture?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
So you were only in one of the Iron Men. Just on one. And what caused it not to come back?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
So on the second one, Rob, what does it say?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
To who?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Terrence, you work with a lot of guys in the space. Who was one where you were enamored, where you're on set and you're just watching saying, what was this all about? Who shocked you a little bit?

I forwarded to him and he read a look through it. And, you know, and I'll preface what he said. You know, it's he's trying, really trying to figure things out, going in.

But it almost seems like when even watching Weinstein, Eric, with you, it's like, look, we love what you're doing. But stop doing it. Yeah, but stop doing it because peer review, you're not one of our peers. You're not qualified enough to get a peer review, but we'll give you an opinion on this. That was kind of like the establishment side towards you.

So for most of us, when we think about Terrence Howard, we think about an actor. We think about Iron Man. We think about different movies he's been in right all over the place. But one day in 2019 when he retires, he talks about he has some findings. He has certain patents. He has 90-plus patents. Goes on Rogan's podcast, talks about it openly. Then Rogan brings Weinstein.
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
Yeah, and we did that. I guess the most basic one, okay, so if I go to someone like you who's an outsider coming in, in the scientist world, right, the mathematics world, and you make certain claims, first question the academia is going to ask is, what is your qualification? What is your education? Where did you go to?
PBD Podcast
"They Stole My Patents" - Terrence Howard RAGES On Tech Theft, Science Clash & Marvel Drama | PBD Podcast | Ep. 571
And it seems like some of these guys came out and said, well, that school this, the school that, that. I don't know which one it was, South Carolina or whatever it was, the school, the degree, all this stuff.

Oh, my God. Listen, that is so exciting. You know, so when Doge is taking place, we've been talking about the concept of tariffs for a few years. And you saw Mark Cuban coming out and said, well, you know, here's what you got to be careful with tariffs and, you know, protectionists. And that's not the right way to go. And we need free trade.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And this is why this and by the way, this conversation goes back to some people that are very big pro Nixon. Nixon was one of the greatest presidents of all time. And he did all this stuff. I mean, The argument could be a 50-50 argument. There's days that I sit there and I think Nixon did great, and there's days I sit there and I debate my own self saying, wait a minute, he strengthened China.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
We got off of gold standard. We got into a bunch of debt because it was kind of like the U.S. dollar. So you can say the good, bad, and the ugly, and I'm sure I'm going to get a call from Roger Stone, hey, you know, don't you ever talk about my Nixon like that. But here's where I'm going with this part about this story with Doge.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
So I sit there and we have our research team pull up the history of tariffs. Just about 140 years ago is where the U.S. revenue, 100% of the U.S. revenue that came in, the government got it from tariffs. That's what it was. We paid for everything through tariffs, right? We did that for many years. And then what happened?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
All of a sudden, under a few, you know, whether you want to call Wilson or Truman, I mean, we'll go to Wilson. Some of the presidents all of a sudden, like, hey, 1913. Let's introduce taxes. Let's introduce Federal Reserve. Let's introduce this. Next year, it's war. Hey, let's allow the American people to agree to take their taxes out of their payrolls. People will never agree to that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Americans are not dumb enough. No, I think we can. Who was the one that thought that was a good idea? You ready for this one? A guy that's in my painting of my house. Milton Friedman later on says, one of the biggest mistakes I made supporting an idea that was a horrible idea. Taking taxes out of my payroll. Why would I agree for the government to do that? You would get all the money.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
End of the year, you would pay your taxes. Now you're letting the government get 11 months advance on your money that you could have made that interest investing it somewhere. Yes. Well, how the hell do we agree to this? Watch this. Everyone talks about tariff, tariff, tariff. Do you know? Roughly, the amount of business that we do, that we tax on tariffs, is around $3.7 trillion.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Let's say $4 trillion. Do you know what the average revenue, do you know how much U.S. government, I'm asking the listeners and the viewers, if I was to ask you right now, how much income did the U.S. revenue come in last year just from tariffs? You know what that number is on the $4 trillion? Only $80 billion. Mm-hmm. What do you mean by 80 billion?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
That's all we're getting because the average is 2%. By the way, if we right now are spending our $4 trillion and we have to find a way to lower taxes to 0%, now watch what we could do. Here's a couple of things to be thinking about. Number one, if we made the average tariff on everybody 25%, that's a trillion dollars that we would get. You don't have a choice. Guess what? Here's what we're doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
It's going to go up to a trillion dollars. It's 25% across the board for everybody. Really? Yes, we need that income.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
They can say that all they want. What if we can increase some of the prices? The question the average person needs to ask is, are you willing to entertain the idea of prices on goods going up 25, 50% while taxes going to zero? Would you entertain that idea? Let's just kind of ask the question. Would you entertain that idea?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
By the way, this guy named Elon Musk, when he bought Twitter, you know what he did? They went from 7,500 employees to next week he fires half of them, 3,750. The 3,750 that quit called another 1,250 to quit. The guy went from 7,500 employees to 2,500 employees in around a month. So do you not think he, Bobby Vivek, can take the amount of employees we have and say, listen, guys.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
All this stuff we're paying you, go find a job in the real world like everybody else. Look, I'm just happy the fact that we're looking at cutting spending and how we do that. I don't even know if we need 800 military bases around the world. Why? Why do we need 800? There's so many ways to cut it. The right people are leading it. I'm curious to know what their next 5, 10, 15 moves are going to be.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But whatever we're doing, cutting spending is coming. And that's only an argument for us to be able to lower taxes for you and I.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Well, I like what Vivek said about two, three weeks ago where he said we're going to need Congress, right? But think about it right now with what Elon showed just in the last few months with the amount of money that he put in different PACs.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Imagine him, the stories you hear about that he stayed in Pennsylvania, I think you said for 45 days, I don't know what it was, whether I heard it from you or somebody else. This guy went and realized Pennsylvania was the state and he stayed there. How many people lived in Florida for the last few months just to make sure this election was going to be done with?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I remember Tulsi saying she hasn't been to Hawaii since April. That's what I remember her saying in an interview. We have plenty of true believers there, but they're going to need Congress. So guess what? These are some of the things we're working on. A part of it is a little bit, you know, leverage game. This is purely a leverage game.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You want to get, you know, you want to go through the next phase of favor and additional things you're going to need. You want to be sponsored. You want to be able to get endorsed for your next one. We don't mind doing that. But look, you got to play ball. Here's what we want to do. These are ideas. FYI, Congress, left, right or center, specifically right. This is what America voted for.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Well, let me tell you, I loved the event so much last year that I'm trying to find a way to bring my 12-year-old
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
America voted for these policies. We won on these policies. Do you want to get reelected? I do. Well, then guess what? Do what American people voted for to win those seven battleground states. We didn't win five out of seven, not three out of seven, not two out of seven, seven out of seven. So every time Congress or somebody doesn't support that and say, listen, you voted American people.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
This person does not support what you put us in here to do. He's getting in the way. If you want us to keep continuing to do this, you have to make sure this person is going to prevent us from making this country more efficient. If you want us to get more efficient, you got to get somebody else to replace this house job seat that is an XYZ place. There's going to be a lot of power plays, Charlie.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But the reality, American people told you what they want. Every single Congress senator, everybody I talked to, I'm going to tell them, don't forget what American people said. And if you actually go back and think about the sequencing of Elon, you look at him right now, every time he retweets a video or something he posts, all he has to say is very interesting. 28 million views, 22 million views.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
with me to your event this year and the reason why it's complicated is because i have to so this is what i'm doing by the way this is i'm only doing this for you and you'll know when i tell you the story my wife says babe i don't know how the hell you're gonna make this work with christmas to get away with the family tomorrow i'm traveling taking my family to the destination where we're gonna be at christmas i'll tell you when i'm with you

How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
A bad one is 17 million views. Big one, 200 million views, 100 million views, 80 million views. The amount of influence he has with X, I think he's the most powerful man in America. I know I'm talking to an audience with a lot of folks that are... And I understand Trump and all that. I totally get it. I understand politically. I understand that. But Elon is going to be around for 20, 30 years.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
OK, this game is not changing. He's going to be around for a while and he has access to maybe the most important news station out there called X. So a lot of these Congress guys, you know, they're going to need to they're going to need to play ball or else the American people are going to say we need to find somebody else to do your job for you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Yeah, you know, it's a great question. This happened to me many years ago when I had a call with a lawyer. We had a seven-minute call. The guy billed me for 30 minutes. I said, why are you billing me for 30 minutes? He says, you know, minutes roll up. I said, I want to pay you by the minute. He says, there's no such thing as paying me by the minute.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I said, I'd like to build an app or something that I get to pay people by the minute to connect. So do you have a minute to connect? Let's connect. And connect, what it does is if you send a cold email to anybody right now, less than 1% response rate. If you send a DM, 3%. X LinkedIn, 5% to 8%. On Manect, there's a 91% response rate because you're paying for a response.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Everybody's time nowadays is valuable. If you want a response from Charlie, you got to pay for it. If you want a response from so many different influencers that are on Manect right now, you can get a hold of them. You can do a 15-minute call with them. You can do a... Video response, text response. But the app has become one of the best networking apps worldwide right now. We're in 46 countries.

How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
By the end of the year, we'll be at 180 countries. But it's grown exponentially.

Then from there, first thing in the morning, I have to get on the jet, fly over to you, hoping I can get my son to come with me. Then right after that, when I'm done, I'm going to get on the jet to get back to spend the Christmas time with the family. But I do this because I have so much respect for what you're building. I'm so...
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
pbd that is so powerful let me tell you i'm gonna tell you a crazy story here so i'm i'm starting insurance agency i'm in a room and there's two different people debating whether you should be accessible to your insurance agents or whether you should seem like you're so busy that you're not accessible to create the aura of oh my god he's so busy you can never get a hold of him because this book called 40 allows a power and there's a heated debate going on
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
One girl says, nope, you got to be accessible. The other guy says, don't be accessible. You will spoil them because they can always get a hold of you. I went to the girl and I said, listen, man, I just think this is the right philosophy. We chose the philosophy of being accessible. Do you know how many opportunities you miss out on if you're not accessible? You know what's crazy?

When I had Dwayne The Rock Johnson at our event at the Palm Beach Convention Center, We're going back and forth. I'm inviting him to the event. He's calling me on a Sunday. We're texting back and forth, talking about the terms. And I said, I've dealt with a lot of celebrities that you bring to events. There is no way you're going to have a direct layer. He was a direct layer guy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Mark Cuban, love him or hate him, had him on the podcast nine years ago. And when we spoke, he was not a hard guy to get a hold of. You don't have to like the guy, but you have to respect the guy that can get a hold of him. One of Trump's biggest gifts,
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
is that he's not afraid he'll pick up the phone and tell you no but he's not afraid and fyi when when vanity fair or a lot of these guys were calling us and asking us questions and saying what do you think about this manosphere podcast bros baron trump all of this stuff that he's doing you know why would somebody go and campaign on podcasts isn't that like almost beneath him and i'm almost listening to this guy saying
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You're the problem. Look how pompous you sound. Look how arrogant and conceited you sound. This is why the American people is sick of you. They're sick of it. Right. And this guy is willing to go talk. She's telling the story and you can tell the guy to her left or right is on the left. And he's like very sarcastic and condescending about it. But guess what? He picks up Kamala Harris.

How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Oh, Rogan, why don't you come to us? No, you're in Texas. Come by. No, no, no. You know, we just, you know, we're too busy right now. You think you're busier than Trump? Do you really think you're busier? Trump has an event going on, I believe, in Michigan, if I'm not mistaken. That's right. He goes to Boston. That's right. There you go.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
So he does the podcast with Rogan for three hours, flies to Michigan, gets there, I don't know what time, 10, 11 at midnight. And he still gives his talk. And he's 78 years old, Charlie. He's 78 years old.

optimistic about the future, that there is a place being built where fathers can send family, they can send their kids somewhere to say, go learn some of these values. And guess what? You're going to meet potentially a girlfriend, a boyfriend, a friend, somebody to do business with.

How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Listen, I do like that Susie Wiles. I believe she said, if you're going to let me do my job, you can't have an open-door policy with the White House, and you have to let me kind of protect it a little bit. So I do think there's extreme measures to that as well. So I kind of like the fact that there's a part of the strategy where some people do need to be filtered because –
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
They're wasting your time and they just want to take a picture and go back and say, hey, you know, so you need to do that part. But let me go to the other side. I said this to Jesse last night, maybe two nights ago. There's something very unique about a man who has been around many attractive women his entire life. Donald Trump.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I'm so glad something like this exists with a guy like you that, you know, the stuff you did the last 12 months, I put you as a top five MVP because For 2024 election. I said that to you on the podcast and I'm saying it here. So, yes, I mean, listen, if you've never been, do whatever you can to go to it. It's a life changing event.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
What's powerful about that is your knees don't buckle when you're around beautiful women. You've seen many, okay? Number two, there's something very powerful when you have money and you've had to find your thing. The weird things like this door is made out of gold, like weird stories that just kind of like doesn't make any sense, right?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And a penthouse I sold to Bocelli, $45 million and you know, blah, blah, blah. partying with Salma Hayek and all these other people that you're being invited, being in movies like Home Alone and rappers, Tupac talking about you. Listen, you made the money. So nothing's going to, you know, hey, if you do this, we're going to give you a book deal.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And then number three, you've met so many people, you're not enamored by anybody. Who hasn't he met? Who's going to embarrass, you know, impress him? So even with that, you don't have any layers. Anybody I work with, Charlie... That always fake acted like, you know, the whole act as if you're busy, act as if you're rich. I totally agree. What was that movie?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
The movie about the the movie about the stockbrokers, J.T. Marlin. I don't know what the movie is called, but it's a movie with Vin Diesel and a couple of these other guys. Boiler Room. That's what the movie was. It's the act as if mentality. Sometimes in life you meet someone that doesn't act as if he is. Kamala had to act as if. Biden had to act as if. Everybody on that set had to act as if.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
There is no act as if. You want to talk to me? You can get a hold of me. It's a sign of a tough guy. I'm not afraid of you. What do you want to talk about? No.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
In a major way. Major way. He said the other day over 100 world leaders called him. He's spoken to already over 100 world leaders. How many meetings is he having every night on Mar-a-Lago? Imagine if somebody else would have won. They would have been in Hawaii for three weeks celebrating. This guy's already working and everybody's coming to him. This is a very different story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
By the way, the biggest factor with this... I'm not worried about the next four years. I'm I'm looking at this as the next 20, 30, 40 years. OK, my hope is that the next guy or gal, while they're studying this case study of 2024, what they realize is it. Nikki Haley, we invited on the podcast, never showed up. OK, never. Why? She's above us.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Governor DeSantis, after God knows how much bullying we did, he finally showed up. Because it's like, well, well, well, finally you show up, right? President Trump showed up to our podcast, drove up with 36 different Secret Service helicopter, all this stuff. He showed up. But how many people didn't? Why didn't they show up? How many times did Bobby come and do a town hall with us?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
How many podcasts did Vivek do? I just hope the takeaway from this isn't just that we have better ideas and policies. I hope the case study from 2024 has got to be, you've got to work your ass off, drive, go everywhere, be accessible. You have to earn every vote. You can't just think because you're better at your student.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I agree. You made a very good point. No, he played offense. I think 2020 was a little bit upset. 2020 was kind of like it's not fair. I can't believe they're doing this. I think what happened to 2020, everybody at one point has a rough patch. You go to season like while you know you're right and you're trying to tell everybody you're right. And it's sometimes it can work against you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
It's unattractive. Right. But I think 2023, 2024 in 2024, he was in flow state. It was done. When he went into flow state, it was done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Yeah, so look, you'll find a lot of guys in business that are just brilliant, and so they make money because they're extremely intelligent and brilliant, right? And then you'll have guys that are brilliant, extremely intelligent, and they were offended, and they have a certain drive to go to tell somebody, hey, I'm more successful than you.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Then there's those guys that are strategic that are in rooms and they can hear everybody talking aboard and they'll say, I think we need to do this, this. What do you think, Johnny? Johnny, what do you think about what Billy just said? Billy, do you agree with Johnny? I don't. Can you tell us why you don't marry? Whose side are you on? Those types of people behind closed doors, but it can do that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Then you got the connectors, the Charles Schwab type of guys that know how to go shake hands and build a relationship and raise billions of dollars of money. Those are all good strengths that you have. But there's one thing that is by far, Charlie, the most intimidating quality of an entrepreneur, founder, CEO, businessman, athlete, anybody you want to talk about.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
There is not a quality more intimidating than this. Not one quality more intimidating than this. When you know you're going to compete with somebody. The person here who knows they have this quality, they know they're not going to stop. In business, I learned you can outwork people and you'll win. Then most people read 50 books, 100 books. They take a few courses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You can out-improve them, but eventually most people settle. You can out-strategize people and learn strategies on how to scale, grow, compete, technology, marketing, storytelling. Great. All of those three you can do, you still won't be the top 1% of 1%. The last one is the outlast. President Trump is the epitome of outlast. He's not going to stop.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
The game of business, look how many people are sitting there watching Elon saying, you're worth $400 billion. How much more money do you make? People don't understand. Elon's not doing it because he needs another $400 billion and he just wants to go buy a house or big watch or a car. That's been out of his system for 20 years. He's on a mission. He's got a vision he's pursuing. President Trump

How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
has the stamina that scares the hell out of everybody else on the other side. In the business world, anytime you have someone, the leader at the top that has stamina, I'll never forget the interview. This is very interesting, by the way. The former CEO of Starbucks said, was a former McKinsey guy, and I believe he was a Pepsi guy. He comes to Starbucks. They hire him.

So at the time when this guy's the CEO of the company of Starbucks, $110 billion, he's only a CEO for 18 or 19 months. Somebody can correct me on this, but it's 18 or 19 months. Do you know in his time of being the CEO of Starbucks, Starbucks valuation went from $110 billion, give or take, to roughly $70 billion. He lost $40 billion of valuation of Starbucks.

Starbucks goes and hires a guy from a company called Chipotle. The CEO of Chipotle, this guy's a freak. I think his name is Brian Nickel. The CEO of Chipotle, who's been there for six years. During his six years there, he takes Chipotle from $7 billion in valuation to $71 billion in valuation. Nearly 10x, over 10x in the valuation of Chipotle.

How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
The day Starbucks hires and announces the new CEO, I think his pay package was like almost $200 million. Everybody's like, oh my God, what a highly paid CEO. Why would Starbucks pay this Brian Nickel guy $200 million? He's not worth it. In one day, Starbucks' valuation went up $20 billion in one day. They pay this guy $150, $200 million. Somebody can verify it on this.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
That day, Starbucks goes up $20 billion. Why? You need a leader that's running 24-7 that burden most people don't want. Most people are trying to be a president to kind of put it on their resume and checklist. Look who I am. I'm the president. They're going to make books and history books. They're going to write about me. Every once in a while, somebody's like, listen, man, I'm the president.
The Charlie Kirk Show

I think this is if we listen every once in a while, you're going to have an opportunity ahead of you. That doesn't happen all the time. There was a roaring 20s that a lot of people took advantage of. There are certain times this happens with Oklahoma land rush. It happens in real estate. It happens in investments. It happens with technology. It happens. There's eras that come.

I'm a government employee that gets paid 450 grand a year, whatever the number is, which I give back to charity anyways. I love my country. It's America first. And I'm a tough guy, and I'm not going to let them do anything to my country. That outlasting your peers is so intimidating, and that's what Trump's got.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You know what it's like? Let me kind of give it to you from this standpoint. A lot of us have been defending Trump for eight years. Where it was not cool to do so, okay? Like, I remember when I first started doing it, my channel was Valuetainment. Still till today, we have, you know, six and a half million subscribers. It was mainly business. I was talking business.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And one day I'm like, I can't help myself. I want to talk politics. My life is a little weird. I want to talk about politics. So we start PVD Podcast. We start talking about politics. Everybody said, oh, Pat's done. His stuff is going to die. These guys, your biggest mistake. You don't go from being the number one YouTube channel on entrepreneurship to not talking about it. He's done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I'm like, no, I disagree. I think people want to talk about the topics you're afraid to talk about. I'm comfortable talking about it. No, you're screwing it up. You shouldn't be doing this. Some of us did this early on. There was a lot of guys that were afraid of talking about this. Some started four years ago. Some started two years ago. Some started a year ago. Some just started.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Some people started saying pro-Trump stuff after Trump won. So, for example, when Elon Musk is at the White House or Mar-a-Lago and Zuck shows up and you see the clip about Elon kind of like barking a little bit at Zuck, why is he barking? I think what Elon's trying to say is, where have you been? Huh? Where have you been? I put my on the line two years ago and look what they try to do to me.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Now you want to show up and you write that letter to honorable chair Jim Jordan. The fact that Biden and his administration bullied you a little bit and you take responsibility for it. Now you want to say it, which, by the way, I understand Elon's argument and it's fine. He needs to be that guy to push these guys around. But the other part of it as well is I don't mind it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I don't mind the fact that Altman is giving a million dollars to inauguration. And Altman and Musk don't like each other because we know he went from a nonprofit to a for-profit and Elon's not having that, right? That's why he started a different company right now to compete directly with...
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
open ai i don't mind that zuck wrote that open letter that's humiliating for the democratic party i don't mind that he gave a million i don't mind that bezos is now coming and bezos you know elon tweets on and says hey did somebody tell me that bezos was doing this and then bezos responds back to elon and says that's not true i don't mind that elon is pushing his weight and checking everybody and getting all of these guys to get in line and you know being held accountable
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But it's also okay for some people to realize and say, look, I effed up. I messed up. I was wrong. I'm here. You were right. What can we do to make this relationship better moving forward? By the way, Tim Cook, I'll put him as a complete outside. He was the first openly gay CEO of a Fortune 100 company. Tim Cook, he was the first guy that came out and said that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And these eras are typically followed during a season of hard times. We've all read The Four Turning. We know these different seasons that come about that happens. But here's the thing. There's something very different about President Trump right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Do you know his relationship with Trump has always been good? They asked him, they said, hey, why is it that you have a relationship with Trump? He says, because whenever I called him, he'd pick up. Obama and others wouldn't pick up. Obama is a liberal. Tim Cook.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Very when you watch him in these interviews that he does, he is very poised the way he's answering, calculating, but very calm, respectful, not offended, doesn't nothing gets under his skin, but he's very quick to hold the person accountable. And it's just a very different style of what he's doing. Very, very different style of what he's doing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Where everybody has to find a way to get through the system, you have to be America first. I don't care who you are. If your name is Justin Trudeau, you're visiting Mar-a-Lago, you better be America first or else next week you're going to be resigning and being afraid that maybe a guy named Pierre is going to take over your job.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And so he's calling you governor and saying, hey, Governor Trudeau, it was great to have you here. Why don't you become the 51st state and join us? If you're anybody, when he said 100 people called him. So let's kind of process this together from financial values and principles. We can do both. Okay. So where's my confidence comes from values and principles.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
When you're around a lot of bullies, here's the profile of bullies. Bullies will typically bully lower level people. And they'll gradually try to climb up to bully tier two people. And then when they graduate tier two, they'll do tier three. Like, wow, we were able to convince these guys that fully aligned. All right, let's go and go bully tier fours and tier fives.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And then eventually, when you start getting a little bit higher, the guys that specialize in bullying bullies, they sit there and all of a sudden they say, listen, man, you just crossed the line. You woke my up. You wake the wrong people up. And then when those guys. You wake up, here's what you do. Those guys are all living their own lives. They don't need anybody.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
They're making their own money. They're in their own industries. They have their own cliques. They have their own gangs. You bullies, what you did... The last eight years, you all of a sudden created the possible greatest gang ever put together. You did this. You got a liberal Elon Musk to align with Trump. And just a few years ago, they were talking smack about each other. You unified them.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You got Joe Rogan who said he'll never have President Trump on his podcast now sounding like he's 100% Trump on his podcast when you listen to it. You did that, the bullies. You got Tulsi Gabbard who ran as a liberal, then all of a sudden just because Hillary Clinton didn't like her. She talks trash. You forced her out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
You got one of the greatest last names of all time called Kennedy, and you started calling him Cuckoo and all these other things. You forced him to come up at an AMFEST event, your event on stage, which was one of the most electrifying moments of 2024, captured by Turning Point USA. You did that. The bullies did that.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And now you got all the brains, all the guys with guts and gals who are like true believers in America. Bullies did that. So for me, my confidence comes from the business model of bullies has a timeline. Eventually, the right people wake up now financially on the other side.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I think if you think about what the enemy is going to be doing, you got to sit there and think about what the enemy and Obama's and the establishment and the guys behind closed doors, the guys that the faceless leaders that we don't know about. Those guys are going to have to find a way to pin J.D. Vance.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
against eric and laura because they're another power couple that could maybe one day run against vivek against uh elon against trump against the family they're playing behind closed doors trying to find ways to be ways of getting under trump's skin hey you know elon musk bought the presidency he's the puppet master they're gonna try to play these games and if that doesn't work
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I think you could see 12 years of presidency of Trump and J.D. Vance or others being here, and that 12 years could be a historic 12-year run that will go on.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
predict your book is the next five moves what do you think is the democrat party's next move sure listen you hope they double down please double down go ahead do it go ahead and double down and not learn from you from your mistakes that's kind of like you got a seven game series you're playing against another team in the world series or basketball and you see what plays they keep playing you double down game two you double down game three you double down game four you get swept it's double dumb to do that
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
I don't think they're going to do that. But I think the one person that screwed the whole thing up for Democrats is the great Barack Obama. He's the one that destroyed the whole thing.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
So if you think about what happened the last 18 months with the conservative movement, just kind of go through... 18 months ago puts us June of 2023. OK, June of 2023 is two months after DeSantis comes out with his book. And the conservatives were second guessing Trump. That's kind of seen different factions. They're like, hey, you know, Trump is done.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
We got to move on and we got to go with DeSantis. No, we got to go with this. And now, you know, the establishment. No, no, no. Nikki Haley. If you guys really get Nikki Haley, I'm all in. I know we got to go with this person. And what does Trump do? He's like, I'm sorry, what are we doing? I'm the guy.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
But the thing that the establishment left and the establishment right and mainstream media did is they went after the head of the party. The Republican Party, which was Trump, the right move, by the way, because if they take him, if they take him out, everybody else collapses.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
There's a massive division in the Republican Party because now they can use the terms to say, hey, look at the Republicans. They're broken up. They're all over the place. You have the Romney team. You have the Haley team. You have these guys and you have those guys and you have the Vivek and you have the America and you have this. They are scrambling, trying to figure this thing out.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
They try to do it. What does Trump do? He stands tall. And slowly but surely, he wins everybody over on the right. Very, very important. Not easy to do. It was very, very hard because the DeSantis movement was very strong at the early stages of it. And we had him on the podcast and we had great conversations with him there. Now flip it on the other side. Peter Thiel is on the Barry Weiss podcast.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
They're having a conversation. I love what Peter Thiel said in this podcast. He says, you guys don't realize how important 2024 was because he says, I remember when Musk said, I believe 2024 will be the most monumental election of our lifetime. And he says, Peter's like, look, when I hear stuff like that, I'm kind of like, give me a flip and break. He says, so I called Elon. He's telling the story.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And he says, I told Elon, you can't tell me it's a most monumental election. How can you say that? He says, let me tell you, here's why it is. And then he says, the more time went by, he says, the more I realized this was monumental. And here's why. Listen to what he said. Powerful. He says, imagine if Kamala won. You know what Democrats would be able to say today?
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
He says if Kamala won, they would be able to say Trump just got lucky. That was a fluke. MAGA is not real. There is no people out there that want these types of policies. That was a guy that just got lucky one time. It'll never happen again. And they wanted to destroy this entire movement. And by the way, within the movement... You would have Turning Point USA.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
They would have tried to destroy and divide everybody. You got the MAGA. You got everybody. But what happens? Trump wins. So Trump winning, what was a fluke? Oh, the 2020 election was a fluke. That's right. So that was a fluke. And by the way, who chose Biden over Hillary to be the person for 2020? This guy named Barack Obama and Barack Obama to the left is the black Jesus. That's their God.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
That's their MJ. That's the guy that walks on water in their eyes. Right. And then you see him on stage and his voice no longer has credibility. What? You see him on stage, he doesn't sound like himself anymore. Are you kidding? This is the 2004 DNC, one of the greatest speeches ever given in political history. That guy lost it.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
He was able to go and sit down with Leno, Letterman, Kimmel, Fallon, anybody, and oh my God, look how amazing he is. You know, the energy that he has. That guy had the biggest loss of his career, the biggest public humiliating loss of his career. What do Democrats do now? They're allowing AOC to be now a story of this guy. You know, hey, she may run for office in 2028.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
So then you have Obama now is sitting there allowing AOC to come in. So let's just kind of play with the games. Like they need their own Elon Musk. We need our own Elon Musk. No, you had your own Elon Musk. No, we need our own Rogan. Who's going to be the Rogan? You see some guys right now seeing this as an opportunity that they're going after Rogan.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And there are guys that were on Rogan four or five times. I won't say their names four or five times that now they're turning against Rogan and trashing Rogan. But the same people that were trashing Rogan were the same people that supported Bernie Sanders. But now Bernie Sanders supports Elon Musk. So what the hell? Who is your God now? They don't have anybody right now.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
Look, this is not a small loss, Charlie. This is if the conservatives, if Trump and the folks that are working closely together, if they can stay united and fight privately, disagree privately, if they can do that... This is a 12 year run. They don't have a solution right now. Their ideas suck. Family ideas they had suck. Hey, you can go get pure puberty blockers to kids.
The Charlie Kirk Show
How Barack Obama Ruined The Democrats ft. PBD
And, you know, are you kidding? Like common sense is sinking in and bad policies got exposed in 2024 in waves we've never seen before. And by the way, that's what happens when you try to bully people. They're eventually going to be like, I'm out. I'm not with you anymore.

But the fact that we stay united, there is nothing more intimidating to the enemy than a party or a team or a family or a company that stays united. Do you know how scary that is? And by the way, you can't even laugh when they compliment you. You can't even say, hey, you know, it's really about you. I had a list of top 10 people that helped Trump win the election. I have them in the top five.

How many people sat there and said, you know, I never thought about this before. Look what's going on here with Turning Point USA.

So, Charlie, George Floyd, the coroner, we just found out that the coroner changed the autopsy notes after a visit from the FBI. Let's all let that sink in.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
That's legit. Think about that. Change the notes. Why? Because they wanted to make sure it wasn't because of the drugs, the fentanyl that he had in him. When did this come out? A couple days ago. Wow.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
So it was. They came out. They lied. Well, oh, that's the FBI. So that's number one. So you're saying it was the coroner. The coroner. Well, the FBI visited him.

And he's requesting samples from his blood and his heart and all that stuff. And then Charlie, so that's coming down to January 6th, which we talked about, which I believe, you know, not even believe, we found out not only were there undercover agents inside the crowd, there was 26 humans. What were they called? Confidential. Confidential human sources, which are spies. These aren't appointed.
The Charlie Kirk Show
The American People Deserve the Truth — Charlie and PBD on The Unusual Suspects Live at AmFest
These are people that were caught. They were snitches. They got caught, and now they have to work for them. How deep do you think that went? Because if that's the truth, then they were the ones provoking it. They're the ones that made January 6th happen. Well, this is why DNI is so important.

Charlie, going back to you were talking about all these people coming in and flipping the table upside down. I mean, we're talking about going after big pharma.

So I think what Charlie said is very important because I'm not with Elon and Trump. If anybody knows that, it's him. It's the people that are on the inside. And if they say it's good, that's all that matters. That relationship needs to stay so strong and tight, they're going to play games. You know, in anything you do in life, the moment you win at the highest level, the enemy doesn't like it.

And it's in Portuguese. I mean, the Portuguese distribution. That's the point. It's a smaller distribution than what we have. I'm in Brazil with them, in Brasilia, the capital. We're walking around with them. You can't go anywhere without people stopping this guy. No one knew who this guy was. Like this. Why has he exploded? Because today, if you have a message, the audience will find you.

Ron Paul told me maybe one of the most profound things when I interviewed him seven, eight years ago. I said, Ron... You're a person that delivers babies. How did you go from being this guy to now end the Fed, economy, libertarian, all that? How did that happen? He says, when I'm delivering babies, one day there's a speaker about finance and friend invites me to go listen to him.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
So I go listen to him. When I listen to him speak, This guy's phenomenal. He starts recommending me books. Every single time he speaks, I order all the books. One by one by one, I'm reading the books. And I go back a month, two months, three months, six months. He says, eventually, I am so obsessed, I cannot get this information out of my mind. I said, so what did you do?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
He said, so I went back to ask the guy a question. I said, hey. I'm a doctor. I'm a gynecologist. I give birth to babies. But I can't stop thinking about all this stuff you do. What do I do with all this information? The guy gave him the most profound advice. He said, let me tell you how the world works.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

As long as you talk about what you believe in and you do it enough times, the right people will find you and learn how to use you. Wow. What happened to Ron Paul? Doge, the Department of Governmental Efficiencies, may be an idea that Ron Paul came up with many years ago. Think about it. Think about what his son does. Think about what happened to him writing a book, End of Fed.

He's one of the most influential politicians in the last 10, 20 years. This guy ends up raising $6 million on MySpace in 24 hours, breaks the record for $6 million before he ran for president. I think this is in 04 or 03. Ron Paul is who we're talking about. Where am I going with this? You have a message. And the audience keeps finding you. And we're going to come to you to find a message.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Then the next part is, all right, the more you can monetize this message, the more you can reach others. So how do you do that? Do I turn that into a business? Do I turn that into a show? Do I turn that into a consulting firm? Do I turn that into a product line? What do I turn that into? So now you said network marketing, right?

For me, with insurance, when I was at Bally's, I watched what Bally's did. Then I went to Morgan Stanley, I watched what Morgan Stanley did. Then I went to Transamerica, World Financial, I watched what they did. I'm like, oh my God, I love this, the combination of all these different companies, what they're doing.

Network marketing, the most basic thing about network marketing is that you get to take a product and sell it for less and use a percentage of it to pay override. That's one of the ways of getting to the consumer. Another way is ads. Another way is social media. Another way is direct sales. That business model is different.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
But by far, Gary, the most important thing is the message being a message that resonates with the world, and you have a way of delivering it, and you know how to do it.

Two and a half, which, by the way, was absolutely sick. Everybody in the back is just talking still about how to podcast. I drank hydrogen water for the first time. Yes, you did. How did you feel? I feel great.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Yeah, so, I mean, a part of that is normal. You know, I remember when everybody, when I started talking about politics on PBD Podcast, I'm like, look, I want to talk current events. I got some questions. I got some thoughts. If you like it, great. If you don't like it, let's see what happens. You know what happened? Initially, I took a massive dip initially. It was scary. You're like, whoa. Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
What just happened? That's what happened to me with that picture. That was weird. And then all of a sudden, Gary, the level of people that came out because they felt that you had, the brass to talk about things that matters to them, they're like, let me just tell you, I used to follow your business content, but the fact that you went over here, I'm like, what is he doing with this stuff?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I respect the fact that you're talking about because I'm going through it right now. It's very important. When people stop me now, they don't stop me for the business content. They don't stop me now for entrepreneurship. They don't stop me. They stop me purely for what we talk about on Peabody Podcast. I can't even tell you how much that is right now. I'm not even kidding with you.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
It's a very different thing that happened. However, so let's go through it. So in life... You're either going to find people that are interested in wanting to improve and entertain other ideas. You know what? Let me see what he has to say. Let me see what he has to say. Let me see what he has to say. You're going to have people that want to have nothing to do with you if you choose a side, okay?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
And you're going to have those that are going to be with you no matter what, your ride or dies. Your ride or die community is always going to be the smallest community, okay? The people that want to have nothing to do with you can change their mind years later. They may start off saying, man, I can't stand what he has to say. You know what? He's growing on me. You know what? I like the guy.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I like the guy. It's kind of what happens, right? I don't go away. I have the same message over and over again. So the part with the audience is that's their choice what they're going through. Also, sometimes as we're living our lives and certain things happen, There are certain shifts that happen in business and in life.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
If you're not able to adjust with that shift and you're too afraid, you'll be left behind. For example, look at Bobby Kennedy. What's he doing now? He's got probably one of the top three biggest jobs in the world. I think it's fair to say in our administration. And he's up. against some of the biggest well-funded... Enemies. Big Pharma. All these other guys. Media.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
They're not going to like what he has to do. If he decides to not allow Big Pharma to advertise on media companies and we become like the other countries except for New Zealand, they'll be like, what are you doing? He has a lot of solid enemies and he knows. He lost his family. They no longer want to talk to him. But what happens if he ends up... Marty kind of abandoned him. Abandoned him already.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
But watch who he won, though. He won a big portion of the country that's sitting there saying, you know what? When I took that shot, I also kind of feel weird right now. Because the level of intensity and criticism was very high when he first wrote that book about Fauci. Who is this guy? Who do you think you are? You're an environmental lawyer. Stay in your lane. You're not a doctor.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
He's a doctor. We have to listen to him. We're like, yeah, maybe they're right. Maybe you have to listen to him. And then you read the book, you're like, whoa. What did he do? And who used to take this? LZT? You know, is it LZT? I think it's LZT drug for AIDS. And then Magic Johnson used to take it. And what else? He's the reason why they couldn't sell it at a discount.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I definitely will.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Like even a couple of days ago when Trump was talking, what did Trump say a couple of days ago? He says, why is Ozempic? you know, $88 in UK, but it's $1,200 here in the States. He's asking those questions. Yeah. So now Trump's not a guy that wakes up in the morning studying the health and supplements and vitamins. That's not his space. He's real estate. He's media, right? Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Why is it $1,200 here? I don't know. I want to know. Great. Let's go pursue it, right? So Bobby took the risk of asking the question that a lot of people were willing to ask. And because of that, he gained a lot of loyal followers that are with him now. And what did that influence do to him? It got him in the White House with the second or the third biggest job we have.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
It's insane.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
That's a personal decision. But I'll tell you and I'll break it down for you why I think it's a personal decision. For me, the greatest experiences in life come with very high level of risk. So what are the most riskiest decisions we'll ever make in life? Marriage, very risky, especially in America. Very risky, right? Some of us got lucky, some don't. Some can do everything right.

You marry a girl that you met at church and you've known her for seven years at church and everything, and it still doesn't work out and you're miserable and you're not happy and it's not working out. But what's the alternative risk? Staying single. That's a bigger risk. Why is staying single a bigger risk?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Who are you going to come and talk to about your victories, about your challenges, about your issues? What are you building? You're building nothing. It's a solo team. The high of a life being solo is not a high life of building something with a unit. Second risk, kids. How risky is it? Very. You're sending them to school. What they're going to be fed.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
what they're going to be brainwashed, what they could potentially happen. At any time, you're always thinking what they're doing. They're traveling. Are they good? Are they safe? For every kid that you have, you're always in two different places at the same time. So I'm either here and I've got a kid. I'm at another place. You've got four kids. You've got five places at any given time.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
What is she doing? What is he doing? How are they taking care of them? What's going on with this? That's a risk, but flip it. I can't imagine. Like my wife and I had three kids, and at one point she's like, I want to have a fourth, and we ended up having Brooklyn. Or Fortis Brooklyn. Wow. I can't imagine life without Brooklyn. I'm telling you, I can't imagine life never meeting...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Haven't met Brooklyn. I can't imagine what life would look like without her, right? So kids is risky. Running a business, super risky. Creating a podcast, having an opinion, super risky. Every one of these things are extremely risky, right? But what is the flip side? If you start kind of talking about what you believe in and you ask the question in a respectful way, what ends up happening? See...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
When I think about guys who continuously won, there's a lot of people that will go viral for one year, and everybody that year is thinking, this guy's gonna go viral for the rest of his life. No, that's not how this works. Then some will go viral for five years, and after five years, they flatline. That's a lot of social media influencers, they flatlined.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Some may go a decade, and then they flatline, right? I think there's only three performers that have a number one hit in four different decades. I think it's Ray Charles, I think it's Sting and maybe one other person that has a number one hit in four different, you know how hard that is to do? Four decades? Four decades of a number one hit.

Like you have to find a way to entertain a new generation. Your music is only good for that generation. Now you're doing it to this guy. Holy shit. So what is the hardest thing that artists have to do? Recreating yourself. Dude, that is not easy to do. You want me to recreate yourself? Yeah. What does recreation mean? Recreation means the old you is not good enough for this next level.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Are you willing to go through that pain? It's not easy. It's a very difficult thing to go through, to say, I was good for that level, but I am not good for this next level. And then you recreate and you're going through the grind of not being that good and you're getting, boom, and then you're like, boom, I'm good enough for this level and not only I'm great for this level.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Now do you want to go to the next level? Oh, here we go again. So this concept of recreating ourselves It's a very difficult thing to go through. And when I went through it four years ago, trust me, everybody was, because I hadn't sold my insurance company yet. So I was like, listen, you go through this route and all of a sudden half your company agents leave. They're all 1099.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
They don't have to stay here selling insurance. They can go to any other company. But we took the risk and all of a sudden millions showed up. that we're interested. And when we have to talk, we're like, whoa, where did you guys show up out of nowhere? Yeah, we're interested. Really? Yeah. Why? We're just interested. I didn't go to school for this. I don't have a 40 degree for this.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
But we relate to it because we're like you as well. Okay. And we kind of feel that you're fair with your ability to reason and you're delivering your message. Okay, cool. Okay, sounds good. Well, good to meet you. Boom. And then there's that relationship. And then you got to do it again and again and again.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business

There's nothing to look forward to. For me, when you're asking about like a driver, what moved me, you know, it wasn't drugs. It wasn't any of that stuff. It was, we were poor. We lived in a country that we couldn't say anything. We were frightened of living in Iran. I lived there for 10 and a half years. We escaped six weeks after Khomeini died. He died June 3rd, 89. We left July 15th of 89.

We went to Germany. I lived at a refugee camp. We're escaping control, right? We're escaping dictatorship. We're escaping tyranny. And they were in Germany. And then we come to the States here.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
It is tough. And I've talked to my wife, my nanny, and my dad. And I tell them, I'll have serious conversations with them. I said, guys, please do me a favor. I don't mind being the bad guy. Just prevent me from always being the bad guy. Don't always call me to be the bad guy. They're not going to take a shower. They're not getting up. They're not doing this.

153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
And I don't want to be that all the time. I'm very comfortable being it, but I don't want to be that all the time. So what does it mean to do? Our kids, you know, I have a 13-year-old, 11-year-old son, eight, three-year-old daughter, right? Every one of my 13-year-old sons all have cell phones, smartphones. Every one of my 11-year-old all have cell phones except for one.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
The eight-year-old, most of them have cell phones except for two or three. And then obviously three-year-old is a three-year-old. None of my kids have a cell phone. And the oldest is 13. They don't have a single cell phone, not a smartphone, not a cell phone, nothing. They don't have anything. And so they're not accustomed to what it is to have a cell phone. It's very intentional.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I read a book called – what is the name of the book, Rob? The one – What is the name of the book that has to do with cell phones and women and kids and girls that I always talk about? What is the name of that book? It was written by Jonathan Haidt. The moment you see it, you're going to be like, I can't believe it. Anxious Generation. Anxious Generation. Have you ever read that?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business

I didn't experience it until we were on that Lufthansa flight leaving Iran and the pilot and the flight attendant says, you can officially order alcohol. That was the moment that I felt free because we're past the border. How old were you then? I was 10 years and seven months, nine months. Wow. Yeah.

That's what he talks about in the book.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
That's so cool. I remember that as well. Yeah. No, but the book breaks it down. And one of the things he says is, he says, don't drop off your kids by school. He says, drop them off 10 minutes away and let them walk. Yeah. He says, when your kids are 16, 17 years old and you've given them cell phones, guess what? At 8 o'clock at night, get a safe, like a gun safe.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
And everybody at 8 o'clock, go put your phones in that safe. That's great. The systems, he explains systems. So to me... On the parenting side, and the discipline, our kids are required to read 10 pages every day. They read every day. At six years old, you're required to read 10 pages. Now, of course, it starts up with basic books, and it works your way up. This is the David House.

This is the David House. The currency in our house is reading. That's the currency. You want to make money? Great. The currency in our house is reading. And that became a culture that they all do it.

First time in my life, I had pineapple and I had banana because that was rich man's fruit. If you had pineapple and bananas in Iran, you were rich. And then we came down here, and I joined the Army after high school. I was in the Army for a few years, three years. I got out. I wanted to be a bodybuilder. I saw you in the Airborne. I was.

What did you say? He's going to kick you in the head. The 11-year-old is sports, and the 8-year-old loves baking and stuff like that. And the 3-year-old, she can do whatever she wants to do at this point. But it's important. Family parenting is exciting. It's fun to do, but we'll see if we'll get it right in 30, 40 years.

I said, trust me, she knows. I said, I'm telling you she doesn't know. I said, I'm telling you she knows, okay? Because if it's a lot and you're doing drugs, she's going to see the – You know, the behavior. When I've always seen you like this and you're calibrating around here and all of a sudden you're here, there's something that's going on that I'm not aware of.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Yeah, and you're not coming home on Friday night. Yeah, you're going to be like, something's going on. This is not the pattern that you've always had. I said, well, how'd you get here? He said, my entire MO was to become rich and I finally did it. And I just, afterwards, I was lost. I was like, what do I do? I said, how did you get into the cocaine and all this other stuff?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
He says, well, I started making the kind of money, so we bought a house, and then this guy invites me over to his house. They got a late poker night. When I'm going to this late poker night stuff, the guy starts snorting cocaine after 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock. They just said, try one bump.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I did, and I just got so caught up, and they would bring girls that night because the wives would be out, and I'm like, whoa, what is going on? And then it turned into a thing, and I just, I can't stop. I said, okay. When I was 27, 28 years old, every year I had three goals in place that I wanted to hit. And I would hit it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
First one was paying off $49,000 of debt, sending my sister on a nice honeymoon, and getting my dad to go to Hawaii. Next one, three. Next one, three. When I hit a quarter million dollar income, I didn't have the next three. And it was a flat year for me. I barely grew my income a little bit that year, but it was flat. Nothing exponentially grew. So I'm like, huh. What is your next three?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
You don't have any. So then I realized, by far, one of the most important things for me is to make sure I'm always identifying my next. So a lot of times when people reach a milestone, this is why most Mr. Olympia champions, after they stop bodybuilding, they get divorces. Most professional athletes, after they stop playing, they get divorces.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
So I went to the Mr. Olympia, and I started asking the guys, all these Aaron Baker, Cormier, all these guys. What do I need to do to compete? What do I need to put in my body? And then I have to go in there. We're very honest about it with me. I'm like, dude, I'm six, four and a half. I'm tall. Most of these guys are five, eight, five, nine. And bodybuilding, you can't be too tall.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
This is a very common pattern because you've been in the hunt, you've been fighting, you've been a warrior, you've been this, you've been that, and all of a sudden you're home. You got money in the bank, you got the cars, and you're home. Now who's your enemy? Your wife's the enemy. You haven't had an enemy, so now you're picking on your wife. Dude, that's not your enemy.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Get out there and do something. This whole concept of, I want to get rich, and I want to stay home, and I want to spend time with my wife and kids, God didn't create you and I that way. Never. This is a new 50-year-old thing about, I want to stay home, and I want to raise my kids. God didn't expect that from men. What are you doing? Go out there and fight.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I had a guy that came up and said, well, you know, I'm a great coach, and that's what I want to do. And I'm like, dude, your kid is a couple months old. But, you know, when you're in it, you're trying to be a good father. You're trying to be a good husband. You don't know if you're making the right decision or not.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
We're created to be on the front lines, battle, building something, fighting for something. That's what we were created to do. The moment, I don't care how much money you got, the moment you stop doing that, you're going to break some shit. Normally the first thing you break is your family. It's the first thing you break. We have to be in the arena.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
It doesn't matter how much money, cars, fame, everything you got. Nothing. If you're still able to bring value to a certain community, society, company, keep doing it. It'll be one of the worst things you can do to stop. Wow.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Good question. So for me, when it comes down to this, great sales leaders, there's three skills. There is the one-on-one skills, guys who are very good one-on-one, where you can sit down with one of your guys and talk to them and get the best out of them. What are you going through? I notice your activity is down. What are you driving for? What are you going after? How are you doing with calls?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
If you are, you have to be 350, 400 off season. That's too much weight on my heart. My dad had a heart attack. So I'm like... I'm not doing bodybuilding. I got out of bodybuilding.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Let's role play. Tell me how you ask this question. How do you ask for referrals? How do you overcome that objection? One-on-one, and you're able to tug their heart when you're talking to them, but it's a one-on-one, nobody else is in the room. It's a very special, it's by far the most important skill set, the one-on-one skill set. Then you have the one-to-few.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
So 1 to 5, 1 to 10, 1 to 20, that's 1 to few. And then you have 1 to many, 1 to 100, 1 to 1,000. That's a different skill set. Most people think the skill set that matters the most is the 1 to many. It's not. The most important skill set of a great sales leader is 1 to 1. Really? By the way, it is not even close.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Because if you're not good at 1 to 1, you won't be good at 1 to few, and you will never get a chance to be good at 1 to many. You have to get very good at the one-to-one, where you can sit down, nobody is around, and you're able to look at the person eyeball to eyeball, kneecap to kneecap, and they can sit there and say, I think this guy cares about me. He's asking the right questions.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
He's triggering certain behaviors that I'm not doing. He is challenging me. but I feel like it's coming from a good place, I'm willing to go out there and improve. This sounds good to me.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

So then knowing the drivers, knowing the markers, knowing what moves this type of personality versus that type of a personality, understanding that some people are driven by madness, they want to compete, they want to break records. Some people are driven by checklist, what is the next thing I need to do? So you always have to give them a checklist.

I started working on Morgan Stanley Dean Woodard day before 9-11, went into financial services, eventually started my own insurance company, grew it from 66 agents to 50,000 agents, and I sold it two and a half years ago. And part-time I started a media company, then consulting for a minute, and now we have this whole playground here that we're building.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Some people are driven by lifestyle, cars, dreams. Some people are driven by purpose. We're correcting an injustice. We're going to save people. We're going to change people's lives. Those things is knowing how to poke. And some of the best leaders know how to poke better than others.

Let me tell you, the best speakers in the world are the ones who they can get on stage and talk to a thousand people, but they're able to talk to them as if they're one person. If you really want to persuade and influence people, talk to a massive audience as if there's only one person in the room. Don't say you guys. You, talk to one person.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Make it seem like you're having a cup of coffee with the person. If you can do that, you'll persuade, you'll connect. If you go up there trying to think you're speaking to a massive audience, they're not paying attention to you. Just go talk as if you're talking to one person. The best speakers on stage are the ones that you all of a sudden, you're like, you know what happens?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Like it's in a movie where everybody disappears. It's just you and the other person in the room. Now there's 5,000 people in the room, but there's not 5,000 people in the room the way you see it. No one is there. It's just locked in. Because that person is speaking to me. What's the biggest thing in debates they say?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
The best guys that were the best debates were the ones that understood, go like this. What do you mean? Talk to the camera, the people at the house that are sitting there. Go straight to the camera. Don't think always with the audience that's in their debate. Go straight to the one-on-one. Go straight to the audience that you're talking to one-on-one. If you can do that, the voter will say,
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I guarantee you none of the people in the audience have ran 185 miles in five days. No. So whatever he's going to tell, he's got moral authority to talk about it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
What does it mean to be an ultimate human? It's a trademark. So if... I was about to say something that we talked about on my podcast. I know, I know. I'm just going to keep it civil here. No, what I would say is the following. If to me, I am 75 years old,
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
and I have all the success and everything, I don't care what I have, if my kids still want to be around me and their kids want to be around me, I am an ultimate human. If I'm able to use my God-given abilities to make anywhere I go a better place, whether it's city, company, country, church, directly or indirect impact, I'm an ultimate human. If...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
If I'm able to make my parents proud, whether they're here with me or not, just to be able to amplify the last name, the heritage where I come from, I'm an ultimate human. Wow. That's how I view that. That's amazing. I think all the other stuff is secondary. Those three is what matters to me.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I mean, you can go to PBD Podcast Valuetainment or you can download the app Manect and ask any questions for me or Gary on Manect. M-I-N-N-E-C-T. Manect. You got it, brother. Until next time, guys. That's just science.

So for me, you know, I've made money, and I've made money. I've had exits. I've had eight-figure exits, and then we had our multi-nine-figure exit, which was life-changing. So when you have a life-changing situation like that, I didn't buy a new car when I sold my business. I didn't buy a new house. I was already living in my house. There's nothing...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
that I bought, which was significant to change my lifestyle, right? Yes, you know, minority owner of the Yankees. I had two rounds that I was able to buy into, great. So spring training right now, I'm talking to the CFO of Yankees to see when I'm going to be going to be there to see the games and the players and all this stuff. That happened. A few things that happened. But for me...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I want to go on a 40-year run. When I watched the insurance industry and what I was in, I got four kids. I got a 13-year-old, 11-year-old, 8-year-old girl, 3-year-old girl. So two boys, two girls. I want to build something that later on, selfishly, I want my kids to want to be in business with me or... They start a company that is within the holding company. They're working somewhere.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I want the family to be close. This has always been a dream of mine. I love that, man. I'm the same way. Yeah, when I was watching you with your son doing 100, you said how many miles did he run? 180 miles? 184 miles. That's insane to me when I'm watching, you know, 24 years old doing what he's doing and going around Antarctica.

You're saying minus 48 degrees, and I'm watching a picture of you and him with arms next to each other. That's the juice of life, right? Oh, dude, it's amazing. That's the juice of life. So, you know, business allows you to do that. So indirectly, my pastor talks about there's seven mountains to climb, Dudley Rutherford, in life, in business. He says one mountain is business.

As long as you talk about what you believe in and you do it enough times, the right people will find you and learn how to use you.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
One mountain is family. One mountain is church. One mountain is military. One mountain is media. He's breaking down these seven mountains. He says the most important and powerful mountain, yet the hardest one to climb is media. He says because if you want to make true impact, and be able to go to the masses, you have to go through media because it's zero to a million.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Church is zero to 20,000, zero to 3,000, zero to 200, right? But this is zero to a million with media. And I said, interesting. I never thought about it that way. So I said, let me start creating content part-time. I did. And then later on, In 2017, one of our viewers called Mario, sent an email saying, I'd like to get into an engagement with Pat, and we want to hire him as a consultant.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I'm like, we don't run a consulting firm. He says, let's just go back and give him a dollar amount, let them walk away, because we don't even know how to take the payment right now. He goes back, he says, $5,000 an hour. He says, great, we'd like to book him for three hours. And I'm like, really? He said, yes. I said, Mario, what do they want from me? He says, honestly, I don't know.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
But they want to come. I said, OK, let me find out what this. So it comes in. Naturally, I like doing needs analysis. What's needs analysis? How long have you been married? How did you guys meet? Who were you in high school? What sport did you play? Were you the captain? Were you the 4.0 GPA? Were you in a better relationship with mom or dad? Dad wasn't there. What happened with mom?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Did mom remarry? I'm curious. I'm doing needs analysis. So I start doing these analysis on him and his business. And at the end, I said, okay, this is mine. I got 30 minutes. I learned about your business. What questions you got for me? He starts asking questions. And by the time it was done, I said, I think we made this guy $10 million today. Great. Let's see what happens. Follows up. Boom.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Follows up again. Boom. Follows up again. Yeah, we're actually making direct impact. We don't need any equity. There is no commitment from you to us like, hey, give us 10%, we'll do this. I don't want any of that stuff because that gets us in different kind of relationships. So eventually that led into 10 people calling, 20 people calling.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Then Valuetainment started growing and we ended up getting, I don't know how many YouTube subscribers we got right now, 10 plus million subscribers between Peabody Podcast and Valuetainment.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
And then I started talking and I took a few risks. One of the risks was, uh i started you know talking about politics four and a half years ago and everybody said big mistake don't do it big mistake don't do it big mistake don't do it I said, look, I started talking politics at 42 years old, 41 and a half years old.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I said, the reason why I did is because when I was creating content at 35, my audience was 20 to 35 years old, okay? So they're now aging with me. If they're aging with me and you're 41, 42, what questions are you asking? Where do I put my kids in school? How do I raise them? Taxes I'm paying. Who do I vote for? What's going on with you? Asking the important questions in life.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
By far, Gary, the most important thing is...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
So I said, look, I have an opinion. Let's talk about it. And the next thing you know, that grew. And so, and then that led to, you know, us building a business now, the holding company with Manek. You're talking about Manek earlier. To me, The biggest thing with Manect is when I think about my life, I think about the amount of times I networked and I met people.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
There was a guy that was the most incredible networker. Gary, I've never seen anybody work a room the way this guy worked a room. We'd go into a room and he'd go boom, and then boom, boom, boom, and then boom, boom, and then boom. And then we're meeting the owner, we're in the private room in the back, and I'm like, wait a minute, we just... How the hell did this guy get from this guy to this guy?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Who do you know? So do you know this person? I said, there's power in networking. So I took some of the stuff that he had with networking and I started looking at tools. Back in the days, you know, AOL chat or beep or big brick phones. And then it became email and social media and MySpace and Friendster and Facebook and YouTube and all this stuff.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
And then you look at the response rate, and I realized at one point when I'm talking to my lawyer, he charged me, I had a seven minute call with the guy. He billed me for 30 minutes. And I said, listen, we had a seven minute call. It's not a 30 minute call. Why are you charging me up? He says, because minutes roll up. I said, not to 30 minutes.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
They don't roll up to 30 minutes. Anyways, I said, what do you charge by the minute? He says, no lawyer charges by the minute. I said, I'm going to build an app or a website where I get to pay people By the minute. So do you have a minute to connect? Let's Manect. And that's how Manect started.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Purely. So I get to pay you. Yeah, imagine when I ask you a question. They get to pay for it because they're respecting your time. You can't get back to all the emails. You can't get back to all the DMs. You can't get back to all the answers on Twitter. You simply cannot. You have billions of eyeballs that you're getting right now. But on Manect, somebody can say, Gary, I value your time.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
I have this question. What do you think I ought to do? These are my levels. Here's what I'm thinking. Can we do a 15 minute call? And if the person wants to pay for it, they can, but they're respecting your time. So the speed of zero to getting in contact with somebody like you accelerated through my neck.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
So all of these things together, feeding each other, turn into the holding company that we have.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
Yeah. So I think the least important thing is the social media team and the how-to. That's the least important.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
153. Patrick Bet-David: Fixing America’s Health Crisis and Biohacking Your Business
And I'm telling you right now, that's the least important thing. And I know they're probably sitting there thinking, come on, what are you thinking about all this? Let me explain to you why. And then this will make sense. So, for example, if you have a message, the audience will find you. And this is kind of how it works.

Yesterday we have a 28-year-old kid here, man here, who he became known on social media when he was a 17-year-old kid. His name is Nicolas Ferreira, okay? Mm-hmm. He posted a video last week on Instagram in Portuguese. I want to show you how many likes it got, but before I do, I want you to guess how many likes and how many views this video got.
