Chapter 1: What is the main topic of this episode?
Eintracht Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. Thank you for being with us again. Thank you to everyone who watched the Candace Owens episode. I know that that did very well. We appreciate Candace coming on and she's hella pregnant, as she said. She's about to pop and then it was nice to have her on. Some of my Jewish friends texted me and they were not... thrilled about it.
They were not happy about it. Hey, not everyone is going to be happy all the time. Not everyone is going to be happy all the time. And that's okay. We had a lovely conversation about Harvey Weinstein, a Jewish person who has been wrongly accused of things. And Candace is working very hard to get him out of jail. So let's Let's all realize that as well. I just got back from Boston.
The kids at the Harvard Lampoon. I have a friend of mine, a guy who worked on my ill-fated talk show with Netflix. How are the other talk shows doing there? Not great. But the ill-fated talk show I did at Netflix, one of the kids in the Harvard Lampoon worked on it, so he had me go to Uh, the Lampoon, uh, last night they did like, they, like, I got inducted.
Chapter 2: What are the key insights from Tim's Harvard Lampoon induction?
I don't know what that means, but it was very sweet of them and, um, they were very nice kids, you know? Um, the Harvard Lampoon's like a famous literary magazine where a lot of comedy writers... came from Conan, legendary obviously, and Colin Jost came from there. A lot of comedy writers, people who wrote The Simpsons and everything. I don't know what it has to do with comedy now.
I think it's more like a frat now. I don't, you know, like, one of the guys, I'm like, what do you major in? He's like, economics. And I swear to God, he goes, with a focus on systems of control. I swear to God, he said that. He goes, with a focus on systems of control. And I was like, hilarious. Hilarious.
Und dann redest du mit den Kindern und sie sagen, ja, ich gehe nach New York, ich werde private Equity arbeiten und dann hoffentlich in die Komödie kommen. Ich bin so, die berühmte private Equity in die Komödie-Pipeline, natürlich. Aber ich verstehe, wenn mein Kind nach Harvard ging und sagte, ich werde ein Komedian sein, würde ich sie zerstören. Ich würde sie völlig in Wasser zerstören.
Until they couldn't breathe. But it was like a relic of another era and it was really cool to see. But yeah, I mean, it's like, I get it. Go into the world of private equity and then from there get into comedy. Go into hedge funds and then slip slide into comedy. Seems...
Und du weißt, das Ding mit den Kindern an Harvard, sie sind ein bisschen schmutzig, was ich verstehe, weil sie an Harvard sind und sie sollten es sein. Sie sind auch ein bisschen so klug, wie sie alle sind. Sie sind auch ein bisschen aus dem Weg. Einer von ihnen war so, warum spendest du nicht mehr Zeit in L.A.? Und ich sage, na, das ist wirklich depressiv. Und er sagt, warum?
Und ich sage, dass die Unternehmensindustrie zerstört ist. Und er sagt, was meinst du? Es ist wie, was meinst du, was meine ich? Sie wissen es einfach nicht. Sie wissen es nicht. Sie sagen, Hacks sind ein gutes Show. Leute schreiben für Hacks. Ich sage, ja, ja, ja, das sind wie zehn Leute. Die Rest der Leute sind in ihrem Bad mit einem Nuss. Ich meine, sie verstehen das nicht ganz.
Das ist der Grund, warum es gut ist, die ersten paar Jahre Komödie in Blackrock zu bekommen. Very important. First few years of comedy, you get in a Black Rock and, you know, you'll be the... But they were sweet. They were very nice. Most of them. Most of them were very nice. You know, there's a...
There's something about... And it was an interesting time to be at Harvard because Trump is now in a war with Harvard and other Ivy League schools because he feels like they didn't do enough to protect Jewish students during the encampments. If you remember the encampments, which the one at Harvard was very small. These guys were walking me around Harvard and it was like 10 tents. Um...
Wieder einmal, anekdotisch, alle, die ich an Harvard getroffen habe, waren jüdisch und sie sahen alle gut aus. Anekdotisch, anekdotisch. Ich sage nicht, dass es nicht ein hostile Umfeld war. Ich denke, wenn du einen Krimi verursachst, musst du gehen. Wenn du einen jüdischen Menschen schießt, musst du gehen. Weißt du, was ich meine? Ich verstehe es. Wenn du das machst, musst du gehen.

Chapter 3: How does Tim view the current political landscape regarding Israel?
Since Trump got elected, what's interesting to see is that things have gotten a lot messier and a lot more complicated all over the place. People can't as easily identify with a side as they could have before the election. And one of the schisms that's happening in the... in the political world is Israel. It's a big schism on the left and the right.
And it's kind of going hand in hand with Ukraine, although the way they manifest is a little different. On the right, predominantly about the Israel question, you have people that feel like the United States of America should not be cosigning all of Israel's activities.
And then you have people on the right that believe that the Israel-Hamas question is an existential threat to Western civilization and that Israel needs to do whatever it has to do to vanquish Hamas. Benjamin Netanyahu came out and really said, hey, those hostages, They're Issue 2. Issue 1 will be getting rid of Hamas. And Hamas is anyone and everyone that we get. That's Hamas.
Of any age, of any gender, anywhere they happen to be, that's Hamas. And the hostages are Issue 2. Again, it's Benjamin Netanyahu. It's his quote. He said, Hamas, the total decapitation... of Hamas, eliminating all Hamas fighters, is issue one, hostages are issue two. That's one side of the right that believes that whatever Israel needs, we gotta be there to do it.
Chapter 4: What are the implications of the Israel-Hamas conflict?
And the other side of the right believes that we are too cozy, too close. This is not doing anything for America's national security. We need to stay out of wars, especially a war with Iran, which has divided the right as well, because the people who believe we need to co-sign everything Israel does also believe that we need to go into Iran. On the left, it is a very similar schism.
It's almost the same exact one. You have people that do not want to support Israel. And then you have people that do. You have people that are against a commitment to Israel financially and a war with Iran. And then you have people that are for an unended, open-ended commitment to Israel and whatever they want to do. And war with Iran on the left as well. We've reached a very interesting place.
And we now have a woman I want to introduce you to who symbolizes what I'm talking about. And what I mean is there is an establishment and there is I don't want to call it a deep state because I think that doesn't fully explain what it is. I know that's what a lot of people say it is. They're not necessarily wrong. I'm just sick of hearing those two words.
But you have an establishment that's neither really principally left or right. They're concerned predominantly with the preservation of the American Empire and the expansion of the American Empire, which is why they will destroy the chances of Bernie Sanders, someone who I like and would vote for. I'd vote for Bernie Sanders. I think he has integrity.
In the same way that they tried to destroy Donald Trump through legal means and maybe other means, depending on what you think happened in Butler, Pennsylvania. Every now and then they throw a person at you, this establishment, which again, it's amorphous. It's not left or right.
For example, Sam Harris, who's a liberal, but critical of Islam, and pro-free speech, but not pro-all-free speech, who's a very smart guy, but kind of hard to pinpoint, der eine Meditation-App leitet, aber auch glaubt, dass Israel jemanden an jeder Zeit bombieren sollte.
Es ist lustig, ein Mann zu sein, der eine Meditation-App leitet und die Hälfte der Zeit erzählt, wie man atmet und wie man sich selbst realisiert. Und die andere Hälfte der Zeit erzählt, dass wir so viele Kinder wie möglich bombieren müssen, Bis Israel sich zufrieden fühlt. Das ist einfach nur ein interessanter Archetyp von Person. Es ist einfach so. Okay, ich will, dass alle jetzt atmen.
Ich will, dass ihr atmet, in und aus. Ich will, dass ihr atmet, in und aus. Atmet in und aus. Ich will, dass ihr aus dem Atmen startet und aus dem Atmen startet. What we need to do is indiscriminately bomb women and children. We need to indiscriminately bomb women and children right now. Imagine you're a drone. Feel the freedom of being a drone. Feel the freedom of being a drone.
I want you to focus on your breath. Focus on your breath and feel the freedom of being a drone. Where would you fly if you were a drone? Iran? I think you'd fly right to Iran. You'd fly to Iran and eliminate their nuclear capability. You'd do it before you even had the chance to find a diplomatic solution. I want you to breathe. I want you to breathe in and out right now.

Chapter 5: Who is Elissa Slotkin and what does she represent?
All of a sudden, someone from the intelligence community decides they actually have a passion for democratic... civil engagement. And they want to be a congressman or a senator. They come from the intelligence community. They say, I'm sick of poisoning people at different embassies. I want to be in front of the camera. And all of a sudden this person starts to be very well funded.
They start to show up out of nowhere. This bitch who no one knows about gives the speech when Donald Trump gives a State of the Union where whatever you think of Trump, he is killing. He's got a young black kid with brain cancer. He's like, you're the Secretary of Defense or whatever he did. It was killer.
Now, this bitch out of nowhere is just like Barack Obama, by the way, plugged in and Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, to be fair. I mean, he came out of what, Texas? You know. I mean, we knew his parents, but these people emerged. He was the governor of Texas, he had won an election, but a lot of these people just emerged.
So this woman, Eliza Slotkin, emerges from the depths of Langley, Virginia, from some basement under the CIA. We don't know who this woman is. She ran a very tight Senate race. She got a lot of funding and a lot of money. And all we know about her so far really is that she's here to promote bipartisanship. And she's against wokeness.
And the Democratic Party's got to... But don't speak about the oligarchy. She's not woke, but she doesn't want you to talk about the oligarchy. So now here she's from the CIA. And she's now emerged, she's now the senator. And it was a tight race, but somehow all of the money started coming in. And she had these high-profile endorsements.
Hier ist eine ihrer Kampagnen-Ads, warum sie Elisa Slotkin für die Vereinigten Staaten-Senate-Go runnt.
Für mich ist Michigan, wo es alles angefangen hat. Egal, wo ich in meinem Leben gegangen bin, egal, wer ich getroffen habe, nichts ist mehr wichtig für mich als dieser Ort. My call to public service started on 9-11. It was my second day of grad school in New York City. And by the time the smoke cleared, I knew I wanted a career in public service, protecting my country.
I was recruited by the CIA to be a Middle East analyst and sent overseas to do three tours in Iraq alongside our military. I came back to work in the White House under two presidents, one Republican and one Democrat. Aber egal, welche Krise ich durchgelebt habe, hat mich nichts mehr getestet, als als meine Mutter mit Phase-IV-Ovarian-Kanzer behandelt wurde.
Und sie hatte keine Gesundheitsversicherung. Sie hat es verletzt, nach vielen Jahren von den Versicherungsunternehmen, weil sie eine vorhandene Krankheit hatte. Es war, als ob eine Grenade in unseren Leben wegging.

Chapter 6: What role does identity theft protection play in today's digital age?
Ich habe entschieden, ich will eine Karriere im öffentlichen Service. Also bin ich in die Zentrale Intelligenzagentur gegangen. Das ist seltsam. Ich bin in die CIA gegangen. Und ich habe in der White House unter zwei Präsidenten gearbeitet. Und ich habe gemerkt, dass nichts wirklich geholfen hat. Und dass die Realität das ist, was wir machen. Wir kreieren Realität.
Meine Mutter wurde mit Kanzer diagnostiziert. Guck mal, ich habe nicht mal eine Mutter. Wer gibt das? Nein. Nein. Sie wollen, dass sie Könige sagen. Hier ist der Grund, warum sie Könige sagen wollen. Weil es verdammt verdammt ist. Und wenn du Könige sagst, dann meinst du einfach Donald Trump Könige. Wenn du Oligarchie sagst,
Das bedeutet, es gibt eine ganze Klasse von Menschen, die ein Problem sind. Es gibt eine ganze Netzwerke von Menschen, die ein Problem sind. Aber wenn du sagst, Könige, dann kannst du Donald Trump und Elon Musk isolieren. Und ich habe Elon Musk eine Menge kritisiert, und ich werde es wahrscheinlich später in diesem Episode sagen. Aber das ist, warum sie die Worte benutzen will.
Und übrigens, es gibt ein Meeting, wo das entschieden wird. Sie serviert keine politischen Parteien. Sie serviert eine Gruppe von Leuten, die sich in den Wäldern treffen. And they tell her they have some food for her and she goes there and they say, listen to me, we're not doing oligarchy, we're saying kings. And they might not even tell her the reason, but I'll tell you the reason.
So we can hang all the problems on Trump and Maas. When Sanders talks about an oligarchy, it means there's systems that prop people up. There's a network of people. We don't like that. We don't want that. Just say the word kings. So this woman who... you know, is a senator or wherever she's from here, pops up. And they tried to do this with Buttigieg. They tried to do this with Buttigieg.
He's the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, and he was in Iraq. They always tried... This is something that... And again, it's not the Democrats. The Republicans try to do this all the time. And it's not any political party. It has nothing to do with politics. It has everything to do with an establishment candidate that makes everybody feel comfortable. Mitt Romney, Bain Capital.
Der mormonische Mitt Romney, der da rausgegangen ist und gesagt hat, ich bin ein Billionärs-Billionär. Ich mag Geld und Geld mag mich und Vater mag alle, die ihre Bequetschen bekommen. Das war der Veranstaltungskandidat für die Republikaner, Mitt Romney. There were other people in that primary, you don't remember any of them, but they always coalesce around a certain person.
They wanted Ron DeSantis because he would have been more malleable, more controllable, but he was a goofball and it didn't work. He had the charisma of a shoe and he couldn't get in, so it didn't work. But they would have been a lot more comfortable with a guy like Ron DeSantis. Okay? Die Art und Weise, wie das funktioniert, ist, dass sie sich mit zwei Arten von Menschen zufrieden machen.

Chapter 7: How does the entertainment industry relate to political discussions?
Chapter 8: What are Tim's thoughts on the perception of Ivy League students?
Für mich ist Michigan, wo es alles angefangen hat. Egal, wo ich in meinem Leben gegangen bin, egal, wer ich getroffen habe, nichts ist mehr wichtig für mich als dieser Ort. My call to public service started on 9-11. It was my second day of grad school in New York City. And by the time the smoke cleared, I knew I wanted a career in public service, protecting my country.
I was recruited by the CIA to be a Middle East analyst and sent overseas to do three tours in Iraq alongside our military. I came back to work in the White House under two presidents, one Republican and one Democrat. Aber egal, welche Krise ich durchgelebt habe, hat mich nichts mehr getestet, als als meine Mutter mit Phase-IV-Ovarian-Kanzer behandelt wurde.
Und sie hatte keine Gesundheitsversicherung. Sie hat es verletzt, nach vielen Jahren von den Versicherungsunternehmen, weil sie eine vorhandene Krankheit hatte. Es war, als ob eine Grenade in unseren Leben wegging.
I took a leave of absence, came home to Michigan, and the same week and the same month that we're desperately trying to get her life-saving care was the same week and the same month that we filled out the paperwork.
And I killed my own mother. I killed my own mother to prevent her suffering. I looked at her and I put a pillow over her head and I killed my mother. Eliza Slotkin, everyone. She is the... Sorry about her mother, but... This is what we get. Of course you served under two presidents. You're a spook.
So when you talk about the permanent government, you talk about it, this is how you're being sold, this woman, who's showing up It's how you were gonna be sold.
Pete Buttigieg, I'm gay, and I was the mayor of a town in Indiana that no one heard of, which was actually... I mean, the town Pete Buttigieg was the mayor of was probably just one of those... When you showed up to it, it was just cops stopped you and told you you couldn't go further. It was like one of those alien movies where they just cordoned off the town.
There were borders, you couldn't get to it. It's like, what are we, the mayor of what? He's another one. They throw these people at you from like the bowels of the government. They're like, you're gay, your mother's dead, you're black. Everybody's got... So we have Eliza Slotkin. Now get up her quote about Bernie Sanders.
I want to see that because she went at Bernie Sanders and said, I'd like you to stop using the term oligarchy. Und Bernie Sanders antwortete eigentlich zu ihr und war im Grunde so wie, hey, ich denke, die amerikanischen Leute sind viel klüger, als du denkst, dass sie sind. Und sie antwortete, oh Gott, ich hoffe, dass sie nicht sind. Gott, ich hoffe, dass sie nicht sind.
