Speaker 1: it's a bold move. Try some Steve Steve jobs Rims
Speaker 1: and see if it suits your personality. When you said
Speaker 1: Steve job Rims, I thought that was for your car.
Speaker 1: At first, I was like, yo, what are I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's very sleek design. Yeah, yeah, and just it was
Speaker 1: developed by screaming at a bunch of developers to say,

Speaker 1: fuckers who can. For last months al right, well, Miles,
Speaker 1: we are thrilled speaking of the fuckers who can we
Speaker 1: are thrilled to be joined once again by a writer
Speaker 1: who's one of the best podcast hosts and executive producers
Speaker 1: doing it. You know, I'm from stuff they don't want
Speaker 1: you to know, ridiculous history, among many others. Please welcome, too,
Speaker 1: brilliant and talented Ben Bow. Yes, uh back your baby.
Speaker 1: Oh man. Well, summer in Atlanta, guys, which is you
Speaker 1: know where I'm based, which also means that you know me.
Speaker 1: You see you see my pale, pale face there on
Speaker 1: the zoom. It's vampire rules for me until autumn, man,
Speaker 1: So catch me after sunset. I don't care. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: just talking yesterday about how our our last guest was
Speaker 1: getting anxiety from seeing people try and battle the sun
Speaker 1: and I like to go, no, I've I'm learned, and
Speaker 1: I choose to do battle with a different on it.
Speaker 1: I love that I was listening actually earlier today. I
Speaker 1: want to check in mainly so I uh so, I
Speaker 1: was aware. So I had my finger on the pulse
Speaker 1: or does that? Guys whatever, they're not all gonna lance,
Speaker 1: but but but I was. I was thinking about that too.
Speaker 1: Summer is Summer is kind of brutal here. I almost
Speaker 1: want to say it's overrated, but I don't want to
Speaker 1: seize and shame people. So the big, the big news
Speaker 1: on our end. Now I'm like required by our corporate
Speaker 1: over lords to say this, we wrote a book. Hell, yes,
Speaker 1: coming out. Damn. You just brought that in like a
Speaker 1: magic trick from the side of your thing. Now granted
Speaker 1: it was not a good magic trick, but it was
Speaker 1: enough for me to be like, whoa, he had that
Speaker 1: outside of the frame the whole time. When you prefaced
Speaker 1: the corporate over lords demanded, I was like, oh, ship,
Speaker 1: we're getting canceled on the air. Guys, welcome to bagel Fest. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if everybody have a bagel? Okay, call back to yesterday's
Speaker 1: episode from the guests. Has that happened before? Yes, it's
Speaker 1: happened like twice. I think everything from Ben, who is
Speaker 1: a fucking professional. Oh well, you guys, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: after you've had me on a certain amount of times,
Speaker 1: I need to help my game. I need to do
Speaker 1: a little homework, right, that's very impressively. We even have
Speaker 1: a show, a story on the show that you pitched,
Speaker 1: which we're gonna get to in a moment. But real
Speaker 1: quick stuff they don't want you to know. Tell us
Speaker 1: about the book. That's what it's called, right stuff, I
Speaker 1: don't want you to know. Yeah. Yeah, we took our
Speaker 1: awkwardly overly long name of our podcast and made it
Speaker 1: the awkwardly overly long name of a book, mainly because
Speaker 1: we thought when we first started that show, we thought
Speaker 1: we get fired in like two weeks, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so right, so that show stuff they don't want you
Speaker 1: to know applies critical thinking to allegations of the paranormal,
Speaker 1: to government cover ups too, things that are called conspiracy theories,
Speaker 1: which is often a dirty word nowadays, especially with the
Speaker 1: way it's being used right in media and what we
Speaker 1: immediately so associate with it, which is our right wing
Speaker 1: nuts and cartoons, right, just clowns out there. But this
Speaker 1: this book is one of several coming out and it
Speaker 1: looks at it looks at conspiracies in terms of how
Speaker 1: they evolve, and then it also looks at the very true,
Speaker 1: very disturbing stories of government cover ups in the past,
Speaker 1: Like on a previous episode of Daily Zeitgeist where we
Speaker 1: talked about nuclear experiments or nuclear testing in the Marshall Islands,
Speaker 1: which is an ongoing tragedy. So if I disappear you guys,
Speaker 1: if I get epsteins, hopefully it's because of this book,
Speaker 1: that will mean a good job. I thought you were
Speaker 1: using disappear as a verb and saying if you disappear us,
Speaker 1: which right, I'm tek a fan. You can't threaten us
Speaker 1: technically legally on we just checked with Heart legal and
Speaker 1: I can't. I mean, I would love to say that,
Speaker 1: but I just have to do it. I see Miles
Speaker 1: frantically texting like, hey, this is taking a weird turn.
Speaker 1: I will say. We started the Daily Zigeist more in
Speaker 1: a like in around those probably closer to mainstream news
Speaker 1: than it is today, and we have slowly like the
Speaker 1: longer we've been doing it, the longer I've had, you know,
Speaker 1: just a ivy drip of what is actually happening in
Speaker 1: this country in my arm five years now, the more
Speaker 1: it's gotten close to stuff they don't want you to know.
Speaker 1: It's just it's the homer Bush, the homer Bush gift
Speaker 1: where you you emerge like yeah, yeah, man, it's a
Speaker 1: it's a weird time. I don't think anybody saw it's coming.
Speaker 1: And completely the way that this stuff has worked out
Speaker 1: our pal, a good friend of all three of us,
Speaker 1: Robert Evans, called it a while back. He's right, we
Speaker 1: got no chumps in the squad really when it comes
Speaker 1: to this kind of stuff. So I want to thank
Speaker 1: you guys for uh for not not shying away from
Speaker 1: saying the Piot parts out loud, talking about some of
Speaker 1: the big problems and still still being so brilliant and funny.
Speaker 1: I'm not blowing smoke. I was actually the US just
Speaker 1: cut on this. Yeah yeah, yeah, alright, then moving on.
Speaker 1: That was on little compulsion to never be able to
Speaker 1: take a compliment, not suck you, fuck you, fuck you.
Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait to move on pop culture he's talking about.
Speaker 1: I'd be like, I'm all right, I'll hear you out,
Speaker 1: but he's like, likes our show. I'm like, shut the
Speaker 1: funk up. Then moving on, tell us about the beltfure No,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying before before we move on, I want
Speaker 1: to I want to shout out one of the most
Speaker 1: beautiful moments I had today as I popped on where
Speaker 1: we're record on a zoom and we all had these
Speaker 1: sharp looking hats that, as as you guys pointed out,
Speaker 1: are representing our cities Justin had one as well, and
Speaker 1: is the Chicago he had the Bulls hat on. M hmmm,
Speaker 1: I got it. I got you guys are rock in
Speaker 1: l a. I've gotten the Atlanta hat. And I felt like, first,
Speaker 1: I love being able to curse on the show. I
Speaker 1: don't do that a lot of other shows. I felt
Speaker 1: like we were at a fucking Lids meeting and like
Speaker 1: the executive commission of the Executive Board of Lids Convenience
Speaker 1: for for the thanks for meeting. Does anyone is that
Speaker 1: getting work for LIDS Corporate? Please tell me? Do you
Speaker 1: have zoom or team's calls and everybody has to have
Speaker 1: what they call a lid on? Because that's my That
Speaker 1: was where my imagination where they're like wearing a hit
Speaker 1: on the call. Yeah, where's your lid? Man? Oh? I
Speaker 1: got the Dodgers had at a Dodgers game like a
Speaker 1: real chump a couple of months ago, and it has
Speaker 1: not left my head for like more than a couple
Speaker 1: of hours. I just I like it. I like having
Speaker 1: it on, and it gives me an option that is
Speaker 1: not my Sixers hat, which is cursed, as we've talked about.
Speaker 1: So alright, Ben, we're gonna get to know you a
Speaker 1: little bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell
Speaker 1: our listeners a couple of the things we're talking about.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about the owners of Coachella, how they
Speaker 1: like funding right wing extremeist bullshit, and just generally how
Speaker 1: money moves in this version of America that is fueled
Speaker 1: by hyper wealthy billionaires. We're gonna talk about the Georgia guidestones.
Speaker 1: This is the pitch. This is the story that Ben
Speaker 1: brought to our attention that I just wanted to use
Speaker 1: as a jumping off point to discuss the kind of
Speaker 1: the some of the spookiest I think of America as like,
Speaker 1: what a a giant haunted house that we all live in.
Speaker 1: I think it's a you know, carnival of horrors both
Speaker 1: present and past, and inherently any colonized land is a
Speaker 1: haunted Yeah, it's just kind of the trade off for it.
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, this wasn't yours? Okay, Well, spooky and haunted, yeah,
Speaker 1: all of that plenty more. But first then we do
Speaker 1: like to ask our guest, what is something from your
Speaker 1: search history? Yeah, so a lot of a lot due
Speaker 1: to the nature of my my job, my search history
Speaker 1: is trash, you know what I mean. The n s
Speaker 1: A is probably like this fucking guy again. So I
Speaker 1: used duck duck go with your first of all, what's
Speaker 1: your search engine? Not something I usually ask people, but
Speaker 1: because you are on everyvery watch list watch list, No,
Speaker 1: I like duck duck Go. There are a couple of
Speaker 1: things that require you to use Chrome, so I have
Speaker 1: kind of a made up Chrome persona. But it's such
Speaker 1: an unnecessary song and dance because any any expert in
Speaker 1: the world of security will be like, Okay, sure, Dave
Speaker 1: Davidson or whatever. You know, I'm not fool in anybody,
Speaker 1: but duck dot go. I like your favorite website is
Speaker 1: Baseball dot com, Okaya dot com every day, you know,
Speaker 1: I just love America's past time. Yeah, uh search history.
Speaker 1: So recently I revisited the idea that's that's been making
Speaker 1: the rounds a while about banks buying up not just
Speaker 1: houses but neighborhoods. It's a it's a real problem, and
Speaker 1: it's kind of complicated because there are like, if you
Speaker 1: look at the u s all of it, there are
Speaker 1: about one and forty million of what we would call
Speaker 1: housing units, and that could be anything from an opulent
Speaker 1: mansion to uh, multi family apartment building to like what
Speaker 1: you think of as a starter house for people, you know,
Speaker 1: three bedrooms to baths, whatever of those banks that turns
Speaker 1: out are actually these institutional investors are buying a pretty
Speaker 1: small slice of the pie, but they're targeting very specific
Speaker 1: neighborhoods and that's where the danger is. And this is
Speaker 1: huge in Atlanta, this is huge in some surprising places.
Speaker 1: One example would be an entire town in Texas got
Speaker 1: purchased by an institutional investor and that made the Wall
Speaker 1: Street Journal. But the more I look at it, and
Speaker 1: you know, very self centered person here, I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: maybe I can buy a house, not to profit off
Speaker 1: human misery, but things are kind of going into the tank,
Speaker 1: so maybe I can afford one, you know, just riding
Speaker 1: the coat tails of catastrophe. And uh, I was very
Speaker 1: wrong because there is a huge housing bubble and I
Speaker 1: wanted to figure out what other players were in the game.
Speaker 1: And for years, you know, there's been this I think
Speaker 1: kind of dangerous narrative, this partial that's based in fact
Speaker 1: about like, oh, foreign foreign investors are parking cash and
Speaker 1: real estate in the US and Canada as a way
Speaker 1: of keeping their wealth right, making their little dragon hoard
Speaker 1: of coins and playing monopoly. Yeah it's Wolverine is that
Speaker 1: was that the name of the movie where they and
Speaker 1: the Wolverines were the team name. But yeah, it's all
Speaker 1: just they are invading via real estate purchases much less cool.
Speaker 1: But you know, the Russians are coming for you. The Chinese,
Speaker 1: it's always communist nation. Yeah, it gets xenophobic really quickly
Speaker 1: because it's the kind of argument that that people who
Speaker 1: are like, show me a racist without saying your racist,
Speaker 1: love to get really involved in and they'll start with
Speaker 1: the agreeing points, which are you know, quantitative and improvable,
Speaker 1: and then they'll they'll you can always hear switch in
Speaker 1: the tone where they start to say and you know
Speaker 1: the Chinese, And I'm like, do I do? I know?
Speaker 1: All one point three billion fucking people in that country
Speaker 1: were free, So I think that's I mean, I think
Speaker 1: that that is a problem. I don't know what you
Speaker 1: guys see out in California. I don't have a lot
Speaker 1: of on the ground experience there. Anytime I'm in l A,
Speaker 1: I'm just like asking you, guys, eyes or someone in
Speaker 1: that crew for a starter home, A good start. Can
Speaker 1: you take me around to some places that might be
Speaker 1: a nice starter home for Yeah, um yeah. I actually
Speaker 1: just had a friend of mine from way back who
Speaker 1: now you know, works for one of these companies that's
Speaker 1: like buying everything up, and he was just like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: like this is you know, he he does, he does
Speaker 1: the job. It's probably like not something he's like super
Speaker 1: happy about, but he's like, this is everything is going away,
Speaker 1: like home ownership is going away because they are using
Speaker 1: like they have access to wealth that individuals don't like.
Speaker 1: The deck. The deck is so stacked in favor of
Speaker 1: corporations that like that's yeah, we're all just going to
Speaker 1: be paying rent like very soon. Yeah, well that's there.
Speaker 1: The whole built to rent market is like it's the
Speaker 1: whole thing where it's like no, no, no, we're not
Speaker 1: here for ownership. We're here for repeat customers till they die.
Speaker 1: And it's interesting too because I think Georgia actually has
Speaker 1: the like the highest concentration of like homes that are
Speaker 1: owned by institutional investors. California less so, but I think overall,
Speaker 1: like depending on where you live, it's like could be
Speaker 1: Black Rock buying up all the fucking the homes and
Speaker 1: ship or I think the bigger thing is that we
Speaker 1: don't have enough actual like support from the municipalities and
Speaker 1: zoning laws to build affordable housing, which is the funked
Speaker 1: up part two, where there is certainly a lot of
Speaker 1: the proper existing properties being brought up, but we're also
Speaker 1: not doing anything to spur the you know, the production
Speaker 1: of affordable housing. Either. It's like, oh, you want to
Speaker 1: build a behemoth skyscraper, fun face tour, right, that's yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: well we'll go with that. Oh you want to buy
Speaker 1: some like single family homes that are like they're going
Speaker 1: to be affordable for like regular people less. So sounds
Speaker 1: like peasant talk. Yeah. Anywhere you were in a financial
Speaker 1: transaction with a corporation in America, you are losing because
Speaker 1: they have so much more capital to work with and
Speaker 1: legal expertise, and so it's just, you know, a stacked
Speaker 1: deck that is going to get more stacked. Start. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that's what like, you're exactly right, it's nail on
Speaker 1: the head. Structural advantages. Those are a big thing, and
Speaker 1: they create a positive feedback loop in a very negative way,
Speaker 1: I would say, positive feedback loops for them. Yeah, exactly
Speaker 1: and it's weird because I was also trying to talk
Speaker 1: to I wanted not really both cider at these this
Speaker 1: point in civilization, but I wanted to get you know,
Speaker 1: news right from the source. Say nobody thinks they're a
Speaker 1: bad guy in that situation. So what do what do
Speaker 1: these uh? What are these black rocks or these uh
Speaker 1: homes for sale? It's number four. They saved a little
Speaker 1: on the ink. They passed the yeah, right, So I
Speaker 1: like people love numbers. People love numbers, so they What
Speaker 1: I found from those sources was that they they said
Speaker 1: they offer a better service through renting because they it's
Speaker 1: such a corporate where they professionalize it, but it ends
Speaker 1: up being worse for the people because think about it.
Speaker 1: You are and so many folks in the audience today
Speaker 1: have experienced this. You are a would be homeowner, right,
Speaker 1: you want to stop throwing your money down the whole
Speaker 1: of rent, and so you go to a neighborhood to
Speaker 1: fit your specifications. Right, homes are a little lower priced.
Speaker 1: This may not be the postious neighborhood in town, but
Speaker 1: it has a good school district. Those are the same
Speaker 1: things those institutional investors are looking for. So you go
Speaker 1: to a house. You say, is this available? And someone says,
Speaker 1: you know him, Dave Davidson from from Black Rock. This
Speaker 1: guy's everywhere and he says uh, and he says, uh,
Speaker 1: we would love for you to rent this home. He said, no,
Speaker 1: we'd like to buy it. And they go, oh, okay, alright,
Speaker 1: get out. And then you go to the next house
Speaker 1: and it's another it's another guy and he's like, oh,
Speaker 1: Yavis Davidson, and you're just Dave Davidson with your hat
Speaker 1: on backwards. And you go to the next house. Hime,
Speaker 1: I'm Mr baseball dot Com. Yes, yes, what you're just
Speaker 1: Dave Davidson of your hat sideways. And that's why we
Speaker 1: brought Ben in here to tell you. I mean, that
Speaker 1: doesn't sound too good, doesn't folks, But that's why we
Speaker 1: brought Ben here to tell you about a really exciting
Speaker 1: opportunity to invest in a time share that we have
Speaker 1: available to you. And and I think also just to
Speaker 1: kind of take your both sides take just slightly sincere out,
Speaker 1: it is not all companies like Black Rocket, Like, for example,
Speaker 1: I just closed on my fifth rental income property I
Speaker 1: just bought, and I'm seeing some pretty great returns. And
Speaker 1: what's funny is I really started not making money ntil
Speaker 1: I had three rental properties. It's just something to keep
Speaker 1: in mind. Got stack up my downstream, so I have
Speaker 1: sixteen and then that's I mean, that's honestly, that is
Speaker 1: a valid point because there are a lot of people
Speaker 1: who have like they have day jobs, they have like
Speaker 1: maybe they had a house in their family or something,
Speaker 1: or maybe they bought a new house they held onto it,
Speaker 1: and now they are they are what you will call
Speaker 1: mom and pop landlords. Yeah, but they're not the same
Speaker 1: thing by any means. These people, the these folks, those
Speaker 1: kind of landlords are not the ones going in and
Speaker 1: saying I will take both of these mobile home parks,
Speaker 1: I will buy this. Yeah exactly. Mobile home parks are
Speaker 1: fucking getting absolutely thrashed right now by institutional investors. And
Speaker 1: I mean I can there's already like they're already squeezing
Speaker 1: people who are already like being like, I don't know
Speaker 1: where else I can live it's more affordable than this,
Speaker 1: And they're like, we don't know, man, are market research
Speaker 1: shows we can squeeze you guys for a little bit more. Alright,
Speaker 1: then let's take a quick break and then we'll come
Speaker 1: back and get your under it and over it. It
Speaker 1: will be right back and we're back and ben bole.
Speaker 1: And we like to ask our guests, what is something
Speaker 1: that you think is underrated? M okay underrated? And this
Speaker 1: is inspired in part by you miles underrated. Making your
Speaker 1: own national day or making your own micro nation. The
Speaker 1: rules for both of these are super lax and way
Speaker 1: more approachable than I ever dream. Yeah, all, all you
Speaker 1: have to do this is easier than it sounds. I
Speaker 1: swear to God. All you have to do to get like,
Speaker 1: what's something you want to have a national day for anything?
Speaker 1: Blunts blunts, National Blood Day? Love it so so all
Speaker 1: you have to do is get a local representative to
Speaker 1: bring it up right in that. Yeah, you know, legislative body.
Speaker 1: You can do it at the state level too, I think,
Speaker 1: and you guys have, Yeah, we need to take down
Speaker 1: a golf court. We we need to do a takedown
Speaker 1: the golf course this day. Oh yeah, nationally the state level,
Speaker 1: if you think you can state legislature, someone to say legislature,
Speaker 1: I think you can pull it at the state level. Um. So,
Speaker 1: like obviously you know the big deal would be federal level,
Speaker 1: but you can you can get I think the state
Speaker 1: Congress to pass something, and really all that means is
Speaker 1: you just have to have everybody distracted enough to say, yeah,
Speaker 1: fine whatever, right, Like that's great because I mean, just
Speaker 1: like renewing the Patriot Act, national national Mr Govitchev tear
Speaker 1: down this wall, but then it'll actually be about the
Speaker 1: walls around golf courses in Los Angeles and they didn't
Speaker 1: know or tear off my balls. But that's okay. I
Speaker 1: like this. I like that we can get a national
Speaker 1: day going. And then so I'm now, I'm really now,
Speaker 1: I'm really starting to strategize what the best way is
Speaker 1: to get the okay, micro nation though, what are we
Speaker 1: talking to? Micronation my microa? Oh what one example? For
Speaker 1: holidays a state versus federal level. Only eighteen states I
Speaker 1: think as of last month, have made June teenth a
Speaker 1: state holiday. So you can you can make something a
Speaker 1: state holiday. I leave it to you. This is you, guys,
Speaker 1: because I have compromat on Ted lou and Adam Schiff.
Speaker 1: So yeah, we could we could get them there we
Speaker 1: getting right into me. We can. We'll present them with
Speaker 1: a few ideas. Yeah, give the pitch, let me go
Speaker 1: how it goes and when you get bored of that,
Speaker 1: then you can do something I always want to do.
Speaker 1: You guys know what micro nations are. They're basically they're
Speaker 1: like micro states, except they're not fully recognized by other
Speaker 1: countries or the United Nations. One of the most famous
Speaker 1: is the Principality of Zealand, which is right there off
Speaker 1: the coast of the UK. It's an old military fort
Speaker 1: and this guy just had a mood about him, moved
Speaker 1: there and said, I am you know, it's very European
Speaker 1: pop a flag. I'm in charge of this now, right
Speaker 1: and uh and so I was wondering how you get
Speaker 1: to do that, like, how do you Hutzbah's side? How
Speaker 1: do you make that actually work? And the true story is,
Speaker 1: it's so ridiculous. It's dumb. Okay, I rarely say that.
Speaker 1: I try to be optimistic. It's dumb. Yeah, you have
Speaker 1: to step one, raise a small army. Step to arm
Speaker 1: yourselves with small nuclear weapons. Oh yeah, that one works.
Speaker 1: But the the thing with micro nations, or really any
Speaker 1: state geo politically is you just have to get enough
Speaker 1: other countries to say, yeah, fine, okay, you know jack Landia,
Speaker 1: all right, that works. We didn't like order though, like
Speaker 1: what I got, like holler at the queen or some
Speaker 1: shi like yeah, like I checked with Mexico. They're good. Yeah, guys,
Speaker 1: I have a doctor's note from Mexico and it's it
Speaker 1: says been Bolivania is a real place and we're working live.
Speaker 1: But but so that's what I think is underrated. I mean, yes, obviously,
Speaker 1: getting a state level holiday or a national day is
Speaker 1: much more approachable than building your own building your own country.
Speaker 1: I acknowledge one of those is more ambitious. But I
Speaker 1: think I think it's surprising. At least I was surprised
Speaker 1: that you could just if you catch you know, if
Speaker 1: you catch a local rep on the right day, they
Speaker 1: might say, yeah, you know, why not? Okay, I like this.
Speaker 1: What's something you think is over it? I don't really
Speaker 1: like to do this one, but I feel like performance
Speaker 1: and sling that's what I thought you were gone with performance. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've got a little crog in my throat French rapped
Speaker 1: hare or whatever. Yeah, okay, yeah I know that that. Sorry, Billy,
Speaker 1: not your best friendated sling blade references in you've made
Speaker 1: fun of me before for that, I gotta invited actual genius. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm always like, don't do a sling blade. Stop it
Speaker 1: sling good. Okay, you're you're gonna you you're shoeing for
Speaker 1: that sling blade reboot. Man. Everybody knows it. You know,
Speaker 1: I know that for our next image, someone's getting photoshop
Speaker 1: and so you actually won't even be able to tell
Speaker 1: that it's been blended. It's just gonna be the magic
Speaker 1: of acting. Yes, uh, overrated. Sometimes it feels like a
Speaker 1: beating a dead horse. But scoutis man Supreme Court explaining
Speaker 1: that to people who aren't in the US and having
Speaker 1: to go, yeah, we're a democracy, like, oh well, who
Speaker 1: who's the final authority? Well, remember Lord of the Rings.
Speaker 1: We got these like kind of like ring races and
Speaker 1: they're there forever and you can't really stop him. It's
Speaker 1: just it's weird, and I think it's a it's a
Speaker 1: bummer to talk about for a lot of people. I
Speaker 1: know we're probably gonna get to some of this today,
Speaker 1: but I would make I would rate that even worse
Speaker 1: than Summer in Atlanta, which is also incredible. Yeah, holy cow,
Speaker 1: I mean that's what is so fast? Yeah, Miles has
Speaker 1: access to an app that blends blend's faces. That's what
Speaker 1: I do is I just think of things Jack like movies.
Speaker 1: He like, I'm like, hey, what about this, And he's like, dude,
Speaker 1: it's three in the morning. But you're a rocky and
Speaker 1: I'm creed um. So for everybody who actually you as
Speaker 1: Ivan Dragon was, man, it's crazy. It's my face on
Speaker 1: a white like with white skin, and I end up
Speaker 1: looking like Elon Musk or anyways. I know you're trying
Speaker 1: to make a serious point, but yeah, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: let's stay on. Let's stay Yeah, it's absolutely Yeah. The
Speaker 1: Supreme Court has been for the past six years just
Speaker 1: just a force for business. Like what we're about to
Speaker 1: talk about actually, like the fact this new world order
Speaker 1: that's not that new, but it is now completely unbridled
Speaker 1: and just running free of you know, billionaires are now
Speaker 1: the designers of of our world, and like that's where
Speaker 1: that's where we're getting stuff like yeah, what if like
Speaker 1: corporations owned by billionaires owned all the houses instead of
Speaker 1: people and you know, all all of this ship we're
Speaker 1: talking about and they're doing it behind closed doors and
Speaker 1: it's it's not benefiting anyone except for you know, extremely
Speaker 1: wealthy people. I can't even get away with a late
Speaker 1: fee of the library. You know what I mean? Right?
Speaker 1: And I said, what better time to plug my appearance
Speaker 1: on Behind the Bastards with Robert Evans, where part one
Speaker 1: of the Clarence Thomas story featuring truly just dropped. If
Speaker 1: you want to fucking scream inside your body, listen to this.
Speaker 1: This is a four part fucking dive into somebody. So
Speaker 1: and the first three are just like his life and
Speaker 1: you're like, oh no, he's real, like a fucking weird
Speaker 1: Fanos like person who's just dealing with a lot of ship.
Speaker 1: Fanos actually was probably a little bit better, more more convincing,
Speaker 1: had something I believe done. But well, yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: let's move on to a story. The the hook is Coachella.
Speaker 1: The thing hanging on that hook is the entirety of
Speaker 1: our crumbling system. Yeah. Yeah, So the Coachella Owners, which
Speaker 1: a e G. Is the company that most people are
Speaker 1: probably familiar with. But they are owned by the Antialts Corporation,
Speaker 1: which is not, as you pointed out, mild the made
Speaker 1: up Nazi company from the Man in the High Tower.
Speaker 1: But it doesn't corporation. I'm like, yeah, yeah, they own everything.
Speaker 1: You're an a e G that actually stands for the
Speaker 1: anxiouts Entertainment group if you were aware, or a excess
Speaker 1: dot com where you buy tickets like they they they're
Speaker 1: behind Coachella there, behind Stagecoach. They own a ton of
Speaker 1: sports venues, like they're they have their hands on fucking
Speaker 1: everything like in the in terms of like live entertainment.
Speaker 1: And we talked recently just just some context about how
Speaker 1: Coachella is like this marketing event that was created by
Speaker 1: people who are like, yeah, man, people really liked the
Speaker 1: like Woodstock and like those idealistic things. What if we
Speaker 1: took that but made it completely just marketing and devoid
Speaker 1: of any value other than like cultural signifiers. What what then? Right?
Speaker 1: So Chella like all the way down is you know,
Speaker 1: it feels very it starts to feel more gross when
Speaker 1: we get through this story where you figure out it's
Speaker 1: like is it a collection. Yeah, it's like a donation
Speaker 1: gathering event to put more right wing wackles in office.
Speaker 1: So not to say that the line is that clear,
Speaker 1: but when you start digging in popular information, if you
Speaker 1: follow that newsletter of the work of Judd Legum reported
Speaker 1: along with the Rolling along with the Rolling Stones journalistic
Speaker 1: and fucking all right, Yeah, exactly. They're they're doing their thing.
Speaker 1: They reported that, you know, the company, the parent company,
Speaker 1: the Acts Corporation, made a pretty sizable donation to r
Speaker 1: a g A, which is Republican Attorneys General Association. Just
Speaker 1: days after the Row decision, the jobs decision that overturned
Speaker 1: ROW came down the r a g A. Like the
Speaker 1: day Row was overturned, they blasted out to their supporters said,
Speaker 1: hey man, we could really use some cash, man, and
Speaker 1: because we're gonna need to put in more attorneys general
Speaker 1: that are gonna fucking lay this fucked up human rights
Speaker 1: violating hammer down. Are you in? Can we count on you?
Speaker 1: And clearly the on Shot Corporation was like, yes, you
Speaker 1: can just give us a few days to get that
Speaker 1: money together and we'll get it right to you. And
Speaker 1: this isn't the first time this company or their owner
Speaker 1: has given to right wing causes either. Like in March,
Speaker 1: his company donated a combined like seven fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 1: to the GOP Leadership Funds, f are like focused on
Speaker 1: getting majorities in the House and Senate. They're you know,
Speaker 1: like they're called like the leadership Funds or whatever. And
Speaker 1: he also seems to have a knack for giving to
Speaker 1: anti lgbt Q groups as well, like the Alliance for
Speaker 1: Defending Freedom, the National Christian Foundation, and the Family Research Council.
Speaker 1: When he pressed about it on Shoots, Defense was called
Speaker 1: it fake news that he but they're like, these are
Speaker 1: these are fucking tax that you have? This this is
Speaker 1: document you talking about and added quote I unequivocally support
Speaker 1: the rights of all people without regard to sexual orientation
Speaker 1: end quote. Okay um. And then at time he's like, look,
Speaker 1: I can't see sexual orientation, like right, everyone looks the
Speaker 1: same When I never had sex, it's really not relevant
Speaker 1: to me. I don't really want to have an opinion
Speaker 1: on that. Right, you know, I give to a lot
Speaker 1: of people. And that's the thing. I want to take
Speaker 1: a side note here, because you're you're pointing out something
Speaker 1: that I wish more people acknowledged, especially in this field.
Speaker 1: The more innocuous the name of an organization is, the
Speaker 1: more fuccory they tend to be up to, right, like
Speaker 1: like the the Family Research Council, right, Alliance Defending Freedom.
Speaker 1: It's like back when the CIA had Air America. And
Speaker 1: that's yeah, that's that sounds dope. That's fine, But now
Speaker 1: it's like a knee jerk reaction for me. Man, every
Speaker 1: time I hear a really innocuous sounding name for a
Speaker 1: political organization, I'm like, the clean sounds because they're Yeah,
Speaker 1: when those groups are getting together, all the founders like,
Speaker 1: what if we called it the Gay People Shouldn't Exist Alliance?
Speaker 1: And then people like no, no, no, They're like, why
Speaker 1: that's what we're here for. You got to say something
Speaker 1: like the Family Research Council. Do you have any idea
Speaker 1: how many Harvard and Yale graduates we have working to
Speaker 1: come up with a beautiful name that sounds perfect and
Speaker 1: hits people's brains exactly right? Yeah, we don't call it
Speaker 1: Gay People Shouldn't Exist, you dumb funk. Even if we have,
Speaker 1: we have all the money in America to spend on
Speaker 1: coming up with the right name for them. So when
Speaker 1: he was pressed about it, they then found it's like, okay,
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna stop funding any groups it
Speaker 1: turns out that are involved with any anti l g
Speaker 1: b t Q anything. But then Pitchfork, like a year
Speaker 1: or two later, looked into it again and he was
Speaker 1: just giving a smaller organization to have a history of
Speaker 1: anti lgbt Q like activity, and so again, you know,
Speaker 1: this is just sort of when the parent company was
Speaker 1: asked about this whole you know, their support for four birth,
Speaker 1: they were like, oh, took a very similar path of
Speaker 1: Like one of these spokespeople for the company said that,
Speaker 1: you know, did the company and the owner, Philip Ancios,
Speaker 1: does you know he believes and he totally in the
Speaker 1: right to choose and did not support the reversal of row,
Speaker 1: And either the company or the individuals himself received, saw
Speaker 1: or was aware of a Republican Attorneys General Association fundraising
Speaker 1: solicitation based on the reversal of Roe v. Wade. Uh
Speaker 1: t a C has contributed to r A g A
Speaker 1: since at least, no contribution to r A g A
Speaker 1: by the Anciens Corporation or mr ass has been based upon,
Speaker 1: informed by, or motivated by any R A g A
Speaker 1: position on ROW or abortion. Mr Asos makes contributions to
Speaker 1: numerous organizations, usually for specific reasons. He does not review
Speaker 1: or support each of the positions taken by such organizations. Okay,
Speaker 1: I gotta go fuck just a straight up run on
Speaker 1: word blast to be like, yikes, that's how that? How
Speaker 1: is that any different from someone saying, Okay, did did
Speaker 1: I donate to the Nazi Party? Yes, but it's because
Speaker 1: I liked the uniforms. I did not do much other research.
Speaker 1: I think the arm bands are cool. It's like their
Speaker 1: stance on vegetarianism and not smoking. Okay, so get off
Speaker 1: my back. Like if you if you do you think
Speaker 1: everybody should smoke, you want to animals, then who's the
Speaker 1: real monster. I'm just a single issue donator. Hey, look,
Speaker 1: I met him in a reddit above subreddit group where
Speaker 1: it was people who had a beef against art schools
Speaker 1: that they didn't get into. That's what we bonded over first.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that's what he was up to. That's
Speaker 1: not fair, Like I just only know him from Reddit.
Speaker 1: That's the same energy that all these people have. But
Speaker 1: this is just again another example of how the billionaire
Speaker 1: class has a public facing company that's aligned with a
Speaker 1: festival like Coachella, yet in private, the owners and even
Speaker 1: in public the company itself are actually a bunch of
Speaker 1: sick fox who are hell bent on ding democracy and
Speaker 1: just I just wanted there's a there's an interesting report
Speaker 1: that came on the last week from Common Dreams and
Speaker 1: a few other groups that just showed just how much
Speaker 1: billionaires contribute to the two parties. So the Congressional Leadership
Speaker 1: Fund and the Senate Leadership Funds, these are both funds
Speaker 1: that and shoulds direct donated to directly raised it combined
Speaker 1: on eight point three million in the first sixteen months
Speaker 1: of the two campaign cycle. Nearly half about ninety million,
Speaker 1: or forty percent, came from just twenty seven billionaires. And
Speaker 1: On Shoots is one of these twenty seven billionaires. A
Speaker 1: whopping eighty six percent of the GOPS billionaire money comes
Speaker 1: from quote Wall Street tycoons, which are the people who
Speaker 1: benefit most from our shitty tax laws and loopholes, so
Speaker 1: that they have a vested interest to stay in the
Speaker 1: game of influencing politics. And then on the Democratic side,
Speaker 1: you look, they raised about a hundred fifty four million
Speaker 1: in that period. About twenty five point eight million, or
Speaker 1: seventeen percent, only came from nine teen billionaires from Democrat Democrats,
Speaker 1: so they're only holding to nineteen Democrats aren't giving as
Speaker 1: much but still outsized donations, and a majority of those
Speaker 1: billionaire contributions again comes from the investment sector. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, the Clinton administration is the one who let
Speaker 1: Wall Street become a total fucking casino. So it's been
Speaker 1: a good it's been a nice relationship since then. And
Speaker 1: in the shape of the government like Wall Street logic,
Speaker 1: like we're we're not you know, allocating funds for like
Speaker 1: projects to help the public. We are investing in these things.
Speaker 1: And then we use Wall Street logic and like investor
Speaker 1: call logic when we're like talking to the press about
Speaker 1: fucking like well we're means testing everything, Like everything has
Speaker 1: to be like framed as this like financial thing that's
Speaker 1: like paying back to which Americans especially it needs a pension,
Speaker 1: get a four oh one K. That's the new rule,
Speaker 1: right right exactly. I mean this story just I feel
Speaker 1: like we could just cover this story every day from now,
Speaker 1: like this is the whole thing. They like that is
Speaker 1: so much money that is being put in by these
Speaker 1: billionaires and they're not doing it out of kindness or
Speaker 1: the because they don't like pay attention what happens their money.
Speaker 1: Billionaires pay way more attention to what happens to their
Speaker 1: money than you and I do. Like they love their money.
Speaker 1: They are absolutely they're doing it because they expect something
Speaker 1: in return and will make sure they get it, or
Speaker 1: they will destroy the person who doesn't give it to them.
Speaker 1: Like that is the mentality of a billionaire. That is
Speaker 1: how you become a billionaire's by like liking your money
Speaker 1: and making it work for you at like you know,
Speaker 1: two degrees that are just completely absent of any like
Speaker 1: morality or anything like that. But so this is what,
Speaker 1: like the the Supreme Court has made possible, is that
Speaker 1: we have an entire system that is just designed by billionaires.
Speaker 1: Like when you look at the founding of Coachella, like
Speaker 1: the two people who founded it were just like people
Speaker 1: in punk bands who are like the sort of people
Speaker 1: who maybe in the past generation like start like creating
Speaker 1: like a community, like you know, build, build something cool.
Speaker 1: They're like cool people who like you know, rocket stars
Speaker 1: like to hang out with like there it like plugged
Speaker 1: into the artistry. And instead, you know, they are fed
Speaker 1: into this system that is controlled by billionaires. And the
Speaker 1: results of that is that like Coachella, a cool idea
Speaker 1: becomes a funding mechanism for right wing like politics and
Speaker 1: for ideals that just end up protecting rich people's money.
Speaker 1: That is that is what the entire American project is
Speaker 1: at this point, for for all intents and purposes, and
Speaker 1: it's all happening behind closed doors like the public. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well the right, but it's not not behind closed doors.
Speaker 1: It's just not the part that the media pays attention to.
Speaker 1: And that is because the media is also like the
Speaker 1: amount of money that they're investing. They're creating so many jobs,
Speaker 1: like the people who like created coach hell like that
Speaker 1: every like New York Times, fucking you know writer, they're
Speaker 1: making like a good living. They these people's money is
Speaker 1: putting people's children through college, and like those people now
Speaker 1: take their marching orders from billionaires and like that is
Speaker 1: how you get to a system that that we're in
Speaker 1: right now. That it's just it's completely fucked. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean that that Upton Sinclair quote couldn't be true or
Speaker 1: true or where it's difficult to get a man to
Speaker 1: understand something when a salary depends on not understanding it,
Speaker 1: And that's been true since fucking Upton Sinclair. Also looking
Speaker 1: at this be like whoa, I feel like we get
Speaker 1: angry at the New York Times. We get angry at
Speaker 1: and like I feel like they they're not making the
Speaker 1: mistakes because they want to be Necessarily, there are billions
Speaker 1: of dollars that are sending thousands of people's kids through
Speaker 1: college that are buying that bias, and like yeah, and
Speaker 1: same with the people who found at Coachella, And now
Speaker 1: like are you know working these like swanky giant things
Speaker 1: and have like a million dollar mansions and ship like that,
Speaker 1: and you know, like that is this is the system.
Speaker 1: It's like billionaire money just buying a friendly you know,
Speaker 1: a friendly to billionaire atmosphere. Yeah, and all this focus
Speaker 1: on their maintaining their wealth has just led to just
Speaker 1: complete destruction of social safety nets in this country and
Speaker 1: then crimes and I can't be because no one has
Speaker 1: options or supported because they're none of ring cameras to
Speaker 1: hack or whatever fucking logic they're trying to. But like
Speaker 1: but since like you know, they can buy votes, we've
Speaker 1: just been sliding the scale the other way. And we're
Speaker 1: just like you're saying, Jack, we don't live in a
Speaker 1: place that considers the needs of a working person. We
Speaker 1: live in a place that always centers what the desires
Speaker 1: of the billionaire classes. And then this can dress it
Speaker 1: up as policy or these other things, but the gist
Speaker 1: is always gonna be if this ship takes a bite
Speaker 1: out of the billionaire classes fucking bank account. You can
Speaker 1: pretty much bet that this ship will not pass because
Speaker 1: they have too much influence with the people who have
Speaker 1: the votes to make things a reality. And I just
Speaker 1: want to say, those twenty seven billionaires that were bankrolling
Speaker 1: the GOP super PACs alone, their wealth increased by eighty
Speaker 1: two point four billion during the fucking pandemic, meaning that
Speaker 1: the fucking barely ninety million that they gave is less
Speaker 1: than one tenth of one one percent of their overall
Speaker 1: pandemic era gains. That's all the costs. That's like, that's
Speaker 1: an investment that the average person would salivate for, you know,
Speaker 1: like you would do dirt for that. I would, I
Speaker 1: would commit crime for that. But the other thing that
Speaker 1: I think is part and parcel of this we're talking
Speaker 1: about the complicity of this system at a structural level,
Speaker 1: is that there's no real insider trading law for Congress,
Speaker 1: And it's it's an a political point and people sometimes
Speaker 1: don't like to hear it, especially if they consider themselves
Speaker 1: very partisan, right, and they're saying, oh, you know, but
Speaker 1: my side or this one is the good one. For
Speaker 1: some reason, like Pelosi, I believe is all is cyclically
Speaker 1: in hot water that somehow mysteriously goes away when people
Speaker 1: learn about the profiteering that occurs on a routine, regular
Speaker 1: I would say normalized and systemic basis there. I know
Speaker 1: for a lot of us listening today, this is maybe
Speaker 1: we're preaching the choir. Maybe the statistics and specifics are new,
Speaker 1: and maybe it's really disheartening, But it's the ruth. It's
Speaker 1: a lot of conspiracy theory. It's a conspiracy on the
Speaker 1: part of get measurable. You can, yeah, you can tie
Speaker 1: the amount of their proximity to an industry to begin
Speaker 1: to understand why they vote a certain way or why
Speaker 1: certain legislative ideas are injected into bills and things like that.
Speaker 1: It's pretty clear. But again, if the if the mechanism
Speaker 1: that people used to understand it is going to be
Speaker 1: pushed through like a fun house mayor of corporate interests,
Speaker 1: the ship that they're going to see is not going
Speaker 1: to be that. It's gonna be Ah Joe Mention, Christian Cinema.
Speaker 1: It's all them. It's like, no, it's all of you.
Speaker 1: But you're lucky that these two were particularly lacking moral
Speaker 1: scruples that they're like visibly just going to be like
Speaker 1: the centerpiece for it for it all. But really these
Speaker 1: are just these are just like a zip on the
Speaker 1: gigantic ass of our fucked up political system where it's
Speaker 1: like they need to zoom out look at the whole nasty.
Speaker 1: But because it's the rules sound like you guys were
Speaker 1: talking about kids before in some previous episodes, you know,
Speaker 1: and I hope everybody's kids well listening to this, but
Speaker 1: if you have ever caught your very young child trying
Speaker 1: to cheat at a game, it sounds like that's the
Speaker 1: kid who wrote a lot of these laws, especially around
Speaker 1: super past. It's like, don't know, it's not directly you know,
Speaker 1: contributing right now, I get to have the power. You
Speaker 1: don't have. You don't get to have the superpower like
Speaker 1: I have the Yeah, well, hold on, what kind of
Speaker 1: control are you using the wait, that's not fair. You
Speaker 1: can put you can set the buttons to turbo. That's
Speaker 1: why you sucking me up with Chuen Lee. That is
Speaker 1: an argument that Miles got into with my six year
Speaker 1: old recently. By the way, Miles is always pushing to
Speaker 1: uh pull the focus out on the whole nasty But
Speaker 1: I will say exactly stop zooming in on those zip man.
Speaker 1: But I mean this is oh my god, this is
Speaker 1: this directly ties to the national mood of like people
Speaker 1: just being like what like what like we the surreal
Speaker 1: phenomenon of having the president that we elected being in
Speaker 1: office and not being able to do anything he wants
Speaker 1: to do, and the fact that this isn't given as
Speaker 1: the explanation is like, well, he can't do it because
Speaker 1: the billionaires don't want him to do it. Like that
Speaker 1: that should be eighty point font on the front page
Speaker 1: of the New York Times, like every time something fails.
Speaker 1: But instead it's like, yeah, cinemon mansion got in his
Speaker 1: way again, and you know that's instead of like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this should be all we're talking about it. But you know,
Speaker 1: those same billionaires own or invested they own the you know,
Speaker 1: Washington Post, or they own the corporations that advertise on
Speaker 1: the New York Times, and so you have to like,
Speaker 1: you know, listen to a podcast story about Coachella to
Speaker 1: hear somebody talk about it. I mean, this is it's
Speaker 1: just a it is frustrating, and when really every time
Speaker 1: if there was like I don't know, some shred of
Speaker 1: journalistic integrity. You could just say, here's the bill that's
Speaker 1: being proposed. Here who here's who stands to make less
Speaker 1: money as an industry because of these changes, right, Because
Speaker 1: like even with something like Build Back Better, we're talking
Speaker 1: about clean energy and we're talking about moving towards renewables,
Speaker 1: So that sounds like the money is going to be
Speaker 1: moving away from fossil fuels and towards renewable energy. Now,
Speaker 1: when you say the money is moving away from fossil fuels,
Speaker 1: you're damn sure that the fossil fuel industry is going
Speaker 1: to be giving as much fucking money as they can
Speaker 1: and getting in the ears as many legislators as possible
Speaker 1: to make sure that money doesn't go towards renewables because
Speaker 1: they probably most companies were probably more invested in trying
Speaker 1: to kneecap renewables then seeing the future and being like,
Speaker 1: you know, we should probably get it on this ship too,
Speaker 1: because that's that's kind of where it's at, and now
Speaker 1: we're the ones paying for it because a group of wealthy,
Speaker 1: fucking people are saying, you know what, in this instance,
Speaker 1: I can't stand to make less money, and guess what
Speaker 1: I can spend fucking less than one percent of what
Speaker 1: I made in the pandemic and make this ship disappear
Speaker 1: neo feudalism. That's them shaking my fist in the air.
Speaker 1: And I think that's the hard part, I think for
Speaker 1: just in general, Jack, like you're talking about how like
Speaker 1: you've had an evolution from starting the show right where
Speaker 1: there's a part where we really do want to believe
Speaker 1: that the way that we've been raised or taught of
Speaker 1: how the political system works is actually centering the the
Speaker 1: American you know, And that's like the first lie that
Speaker 1: I think most people have to Like. I think again,
Speaker 1: many people are still reeling with the fact that, like,
Speaker 1: is that not true? And then because if that's not true,
Speaker 1: and it's like, well, then what do I have to do?
Speaker 1: And I think that's scary too. What does that mean
Speaker 1: I have to do? Then? If no one's looking out
Speaker 1: for me? And I think being outraged and getting you know,
Speaker 1: more aware of what's happening around you is is the
Speaker 1: key to that. At least that's moving to our micronation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're going to be micronation of my one my address.
Speaker 1: I think I think we should open it in the
Speaker 1: dilapidated water park river Country in Disney World. You know,
Speaker 1: just that they're already used to like having a micro
Speaker 1: nation down there. Yeah, old theme parks and malls. They
Speaker 1: have kind of infrastructure like plumbing and ship like that, ventilation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know, right, I just got like my any
Speaker 1: any micronation I've involved in is going to involve water parks.
Speaker 1: Colonize the water parks. Thank you. The time has come.
Speaker 1: Colonize abandoned malls and water parks. It's time to colonize them.
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about Spooky America. And we're back. And so, Ben,
Speaker 1: you brought this through you you said this over. And
Speaker 1: I did not know about the Georgian Guide Stones. I
Speaker 1: think I had maybe heard about them years ago, maybe
Speaker 1: on your podcast, But I think they've been called like
Speaker 1: the American Stonehenge, like which appropriately they are very white
Speaker 1: supremacist in origin, so as any American monument should be.
Speaker 1: I guess, oh there, Oh they have a white supremacy
Speaker 1: origin story the Guide Stones. Yeah, I think so, yeah, right,
Speaker 1: like that. We don't have definitive proof who built them,
Speaker 1: but we right because I have the USA today because
Speaker 1: the idea of what the guide stones are of like
Speaker 1: stone slabs with like instructions written to about in a
Speaker 1: camp used as a calendar and the fucking clock. And
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, that seems innocuous enough, but yeah,
Speaker 1: and the the instructions are like how to repopular, how
Speaker 1: to exist, how to govern the planet Earth after a
Speaker 1: nuclear holocaust definitely you gen or some sort of global
Speaker 1: near extinction level events. So the inscription is in a
Speaker 1: number of different languages and they're like a new Ten Commandments,
Speaker 1: the more religiously minded would call them. Definitely. No, I
Speaker 1: can't officially say the identity of the person has been revealed,
Speaker 1: but it's been pretty it's pretty compelling evidence based on
Speaker 1: a documentary that arrived at the identity through unethical means.
Speaker 1: But if you look at the inscription to get creeped out.
Speaker 1: First off, there's nothing else in Alberton, Georgia. It is
Speaker 1: far away from Atlanta, as far away from a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff. It touts itself as like the granite capital
Speaker 1: of the world, because every town has to have something right,
Speaker 1: And if you look at the sscription, it is at
Speaker 1: the very least pro eugenesis. It says maintain humanity under
Speaker 1: five hundred million in perpetual balance with nature Number one.
Speaker 1: Number two guide reproduction wisely improving fitness and diversity. Mmmmmm
Speaker 1: diversity though, that's good that it'll throw them off the center. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but maybe by diversity they were like some Catholics or like, yeah,
Speaker 1: a diversity of shades of right exactly. We might have
Speaker 1: some Swedes, but never too many, you know how they are.
Speaker 1: But the guy who commissioned this was going by a
Speaker 1: pseudonym R. C. Christian, which is like so dumb. It's
Speaker 1: like when you see Christian. Yeah, it's big soda. That's
Speaker 1: that's who made the guidestones because of some kind of
Speaker 1: I would say they're insincere, but they might actually be bonkers.
Speaker 1: Local politicians in the area the guide stones came under
Speaker 1: a lot of heat because they were seen as part
Speaker 1: of the Alex Jones style New World Order, and one
Speaker 1: political in particular that you guys know of was tent
Speaker 1: toes out on destroying the Georgia guidestones was Marjorie Taylor Green. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she was like this is this was I kid you not.
Speaker 1: This was one of her platforms running for office. She
Speaker 1: was like, first thing I'm gonna do is blow up
Speaker 1: those guidestones because funk the New World Order and people
Speaker 1: people were like, yes, finally a reasonable voice in politics,
Speaker 1: and like one awkward guy who's like, what what if
Speaker 1: they what if they agreed with you on a lot
Speaker 1: of exactly you nailed at Miles. That's the thing is
Speaker 1: so nuts to me. It's because even a cursory amount
Speaker 1: of research will show that the current right wing continggent
Speaker 1: that was against these things and regularly vandalizing them eventually
Speaker 1: leading to their leading to the explosion and they're being demolished,
Speaker 1: they would have agreed with everything the builders of the
Speaker 1: guide Stone set. So it's really scoring an old goal
Speaker 1: on their field. And I'm not above the schaden freud,
Speaker 1: you know. I hate that. There's I hate that. I
Speaker 1: hate whenever you miss something like unique because as as
Speaker 1: we're talking about off air America or the United States
Speaker 1: excuse me sorry Canada, Yeah, okay, that one marka like
Speaker 1: shoots far above its weight class when it comes to
Speaker 1: spooky places, you know, like they're ancient places with like
Speaker 1: ancient civilizations that have so much more history than the
Speaker 1: United States today, which spent a lot of time erasing
Speaker 1: the history of the civilizations that existed before it became
Speaker 1: a thing built right on top of it, just moved
Speaker 1: right in and started using their dishes. That's a real
Speaker 1: thing that happened. In Plymouth. They showed up the plague
Speaker 1: that the Europeans that brought with them had wiped out
Speaker 1: the entire like a bustling city, and they just moved
Speaker 1: into their houses and started using their plates. And then
Speaker 1: they were like, man, it's really nice. Have you been
Speaker 1: to Ohio? Like the Ohio's got like streets and ships
Speaker 1: through the forest. You can just like ride your horse
Speaker 1: through its. Yeah, they're like the settlers, Uh, settlers just
Speaker 1: came through them. We're like, we're good here. And there's
Speaker 1: there's so much That's what I mean. There is such
Speaker 1: a proliferation of strange places here in the United States.
Speaker 1: And a big part of that, as as you guys
Speaker 1: brought up earlier, was that the US is kind of
Speaker 1: a haunted house. Yeah, I am of the opinion and
Speaker 1: that it's always Halloween in America on many levels. And
Speaker 1: the Georgia Guidestones is only one example. In this pretty
Speaker 1: recent example. It was built in nineteen eighty, so it
Speaker 1: didn't have that long of a track run, not near
Speaker 1: as much as some of the other things were going
Speaker 1: to discuss, Like you, you guys, are you live much
Speaker 1: closer than I do to the infamous Winchester Mansion, Right,
Speaker 1: I've been Winchester Mystery. I've never been either. But this
Speaker 1: made like, just thinking about this made me be like,
Speaker 1: what am I doing with my life if I'm not
Speaker 1: visiting the Winchester Mystery House. But that's like, so that's
Speaker 1: where the heiress to the Winchester rifles, like, you know,
Speaker 1: a death merchant, the heiress to like a death merchant,
Speaker 1: lost her tether to reality and just kept building and
Speaker 1: rebuilding a mansion like full of like hidden passages and
Speaker 1: stairwells that like lead into a wall. I don't lead anywhere.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's just it's a great monument to
Speaker 1: what America actually is, which is a bunch of demented,
Speaker 1: extremely wealthy people building just wherever the hell they want,
Speaker 1: whatever the hell they want. And it's not it's not good,
Speaker 1: it's creepy. I had heard that part of that was
Speaker 1: wrapped up in tourism. I'm not sure. I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not an expert on this, but I'm wondering for you, guys,
Speaker 1: how how much of that you see as a true
Speaker 1: story of a person going mad and and you know,
Speaker 1: being surrounded by synco fans and no one being reasonable,
Speaker 1: or how much of it kind of accreated over time
Speaker 1: and folklore. I mean, if I if I were somehow
Speaker 1: an owner of a place like that, I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: be honest with you, because I'm not the best person,
Speaker 1: I would fucking lean into the hauntings and thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you for validating that. Guy. I mean, when like
Speaker 1: rich people do stuff, I think it's easy to really like,
Speaker 1: Oh they've unlust their mind, or they're rich. We don't
Speaker 1: live like them at all, and they just live in
Speaker 1: a world. Or they're like you know, I've always as
Speaker 1: someone who's not had to do much for anything I have,
Speaker 1: I've really like secret doors. So I'm just gonna put
Speaker 1: a bunch of those around and that helps me give
Speaker 1: get a sense of satisfaction and achievement. And you were like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, who would do that? And you're like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, some fucking man child or something like wealthy,
Speaker 1: rich people with too much money and too much time
Speaker 1: on their hand. No, I'm gonna I really want some
Speaker 1: kind of like secret door kind of think in a house,
Speaker 1: like but I'd have to build it myself and it
Speaker 1: would take forever, and I would have Like the thing
Speaker 1: is with those you gotta make them look good, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Take book that you pull has
Speaker 1: to look like a real book. I would I would
Speaker 1: screw it up. I'm pretty sure. Yeah, it's only a mystery.
Speaker 1: Thing that I could imagine doing is like a hole
Speaker 1: in the ground with a carpet over it that is
Speaker 1: like people fall through if you if you walk over it.
Speaker 1: But so it's dangerous. So your your house is like
Speaker 1: a fucking Kevin McAllister by necessity, just because I'm not
Speaker 1: I'm not handy enough to build a secret door like
Speaker 1: a light switch the flip and then like the bookcase
Speaker 1: spins around. I was I was thinking, like, how are
Speaker 1: you living, Jack, Like, what what has happened in your
Speaker 1: life where you thought by necessity, it's time to really
Speaker 1: start thinking of trapdoors because these people are coming at you,
Speaker 1: well they're coming from me Gold you know, it's a yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. America is an underrated like spooky place
Speaker 1: built on top of the apocalypse of a superior civilization,
Speaker 1: So any anything that kind of further underlines that, and well, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you know when the sort of like m
Speaker 1: O of the country is to bury and not acknowledge
Speaker 1: that your worst transgressions. It's like being in a house
Speaker 1: or someone has a like a stench coming from another
Speaker 1: room and the owners insisting everything's chill. You're like, I'm like,
Speaker 1: what is everything? Well, yeah, it's fine, it's fine. Don't
Speaker 1: just don't worry about that door. I didn't then and
Speaker 1: sounds coming out of it. I don't know. I'm talking
Speaker 1: to the realtorm. I'm supposed to get a refund on
Speaker 1: that anyway. But check out this. I got a vertical
Speaker 1: spit here so I can do my own outpast store.
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool. And you're like, that's the vibe here
Speaker 1: is kind of weird. They're just it's not it's fine.
Speaker 1: It's fine, it's fine. It's they have five vertical spits
Speaker 1: next to each other, just like they can't they can't
Speaker 1: stop themselves from like acquiring vertical spits. Like it's just
Speaker 1: the like, so much of it is just the product
Speaker 1: of a diseased mind and a diseased culture. I highly
Speaker 1: recommend Jerome, Arizona, which I didn't see on any of
Speaker 1: these lists, but it's you know, outside Sedona. It's just
Speaker 1: a ghost town that was like a booming town around
Speaker 1: the ninet twenties and then the copper mind shut down
Speaker 1: because I think they figured out that it was like
Speaker 1: poisoning people and so everybody like it turns. They went
Speaker 1: from like hundreds or like tens of thousands to like
Speaker 1: hundreds of people, like two hundred people and most of
Speaker 1: them lived at like the sanitarium and like you can
Speaker 1: just still go. It's all just like left like that.
Speaker 1: There's a tourist industry that's like ghost hotel and ship
Speaker 1: but it's pretty it's pretty cool. There's a town in
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania it's just sucking on fire, Centralia, Pennsylvania. It's just
Speaker 1: been on fire. Everybody accepts it. They're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the uh oh swinging a miss on our part,
Speaker 1: but yeah, that that whole thing is on fire. I
Speaker 1: mean I I always wasn't it. They buried their garbage
Speaker 1: and lit it on fire, and it's just been on
Speaker 1: fire for like, you know, decades, sixty two years something
Speaker 1: like that. But the thing that I always found astonishing
Speaker 1: and I don't know, I suspect this is true. But
Speaker 1: one of the weird things to me about the US
Speaker 1: is everybody in any state, whatever your neck of the
Speaker 1: woods is, everybody has like a creepy place and it's
Speaker 1: it's always a seriously creepy place. It's never like, uh
Speaker 1: oh yeah, we like the old um, we like the
Speaker 1: old band in skate park or something like that. It's like, no,
Speaker 1: this is where, this is where they were wearing the
Speaker 1: skins and uh you know one of them was the sheriff.
Speaker 1: And everybody's like, oh that, yeah, yeah on Fourth Street.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, I remember that. What do you mean drying rack?
Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. Don't worry, don't worry about Yeah, boy,
Speaker 1: you are great at questions. That's why I love having
Speaker 1: you over. What schwarma from the spit over here? Actually,
Speaker 1: funny thing you asked, because that the Mexicans learned how
Speaker 1: to do output store from the Lebanese immigrants who brought
Speaker 1: the concept of swarma to Mexico. Anyway, So that's my
Speaker 1: new vertical grip there too. Yeah, sixth one I bought
Speaker 1: this week. Actually, yeah, what the I mean? It's so
Speaker 1: funny that we have like Chernobyl is like such a
Speaker 1: like known term and like everybody knows that story and
Speaker 1: there's a great HBO show about that. But like America, meanwhile,
Speaker 1: has a town, an entire town that was evacuated because
Speaker 1: they lit it on the fire underground and there's just
Speaker 1: and like it's burning, like it's a hell built out
Speaker 1: of like the garbage that they were producing. Like it's
Speaker 1: how I'm assuming in Russia they know the name of
Speaker 1: that town and like they have movies about that or
Speaker 1: they would. Yeah, I think, you know. It's always it's
Speaker 1: fascinating to read travel guides from other countries that are
Speaker 1: for people traveling to the United States. It's a real
Speaker 1: cold shower. It's a real eye opener. Don't don't don't
Speaker 1: talk about politics that people will be less informed than
Speaker 1: you write. I saw that like a German book one time,
Speaker 1: and they said, also guns are normal, Yeah, try not
Speaker 1: to hang out around them. Yeah, but try to remain calm,
Speaker 1: as your reaction may seem suspicious. Yeah, like stuff like
Speaker 1: that the first sentence and all guide books for people
Speaker 1: coming from abroad here, it's like, so you believe what
Speaker 1: you see on TV? Huh, Well, here's some pointers to
Speaker 1: get you actually acclimated for what you might see in
Speaker 1: the US. America one giant murder house, which is to
Speaker 1: so many people are constantly baffled by the inequality in
Speaker 1: the US too, like from abroad, and you're like, no, man,
Speaker 1: like I said at the times, like the US just
Speaker 1: has great pr like Visa via the propaganda machine. That's
Speaker 1: all it is. That's it. And I get that white
Speaker 1: be like, oh my gosh, they were like unhoused people
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, like I thought it was Beverly Hills.
Speaker 1: It's like, no, it's like most places in the US.
Speaker 1: There's just only two groups of people, people that are
Speaker 1: making it and people that are barely surviving. M because
Speaker 1: like gang, I wanna let let us know. To Ben's point,
Speaker 1: like everybody has their spooky spooky as local like home
Speaker 1: or human slaughter or whatever. It is just spooky, was
Speaker 1: the spookiest thing from where you grew up and not
Speaker 1: like be like national news to like if it's too big,
Speaker 1: like fine, but yeah, you hit me with those deep
Speaker 1: cuts because I'm I just don't give a shit about
Speaker 1: that stuff. It's funny, like when I think about where
Speaker 1: kids go, I remember be like, yo, you want to
Speaker 1: go to the old Nazi headquarters they built and like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's the palaceae There is a Nazi summer camp in
Speaker 1: the Palisades, and then it's like out deep in the
Speaker 1: Santa Monico Mountains and you can like walk there. My
Speaker 1: wife and I walked there while she was nine months
Speaker 1: pregnant with our first and she like when we were there,
Speaker 1: which is like a forty five minute walk into the woods,
Speaker 1: her she thought her water broke. I was like, damn,
Speaker 1: oh man, I really got egg on my face. Making
Speaker 1: you come out here for but you go see a
Speaker 1: dilapidated what would have been the Nazi headquarters in California
Speaker 1: or whatever, because the owners are like the third Reich's coming, y'all. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: By the way, it looks like ship not not worth
Speaker 1: the like I would say, barely any Nazi stuff, Wow,
Speaker 1: way overrated. I'm going on YELP. It'll leave shitty reviews.
Speaker 1: Really yawn fest. We would be like, there are actually
Speaker 1: no Nazis here, uh there, these are barely buildings. You
Speaker 1: have to walk for almost an hour, three out of
Speaker 1: five stars. Yeah, I might see the owners actually for
Speaker 1: false advertising. Yeah, then truly a pleasure having you. Where
Speaker 1: can people find you? Follow you all that good stuff. Yeah,

Speaker 1: uh stats on it from how it was built in
Speaker 1: the ninety thirties and says once you get down there,
Speaker 1: the abandoned buildings are open to look inside. Colorful graffiti
Speaker 1: lined the buildings and makes for great photos. Three stars
Speaker 1: because a lot of the time you find stoners and
