So three, two, eight, three, six, one, six, zero.
To bring up whatever's on your mind,
you don't have to be on topic
and you can change the subject,
you could tell us we're wrong.
That's the point of the show.
Heads, we have Happy New Year on our heads.
We have, you know, headbands, there we go.
We have Happy New Year headbands
that kind of jiggle on our heads.
They jiggle?
Do I have to wiggle?
Yeah, they have like a spring.
Yours isn't as jiggly.
Boy, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.
Yeah, exactly.
That's the exact noise they would make.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
So just some random things in the news going on.
If anybody has anything to say about them,
Russia is saying European troops in Ukraine
are legitimate targets,
which surprises me in a way that it feels like
it would always be a legitimate target, right?
Like, to me.
No, because I think some of them,
I think there was like European.
Like a base?
Not bases.
I'm trying to think advisors.
There was like troops in advisory roles.
Not really kind of like training people, I guess.
Okay.
Or like advising, telling the Ukrainian officers
how to train the Ukrainian soldiers.
This is how you use a medical weapon.
Yeah, pretty much.
Or like this is how you use them.
Like we got to show you,
we're going to give you like these missiles.
You got to know how to launch them, right?
So I guess like an advisory role.
Okay.
I didn't think there were any European combatants.
Like there's no like mobilized outside of like
special operations.
But there are all these people in different countries
saying like, oh, I signed up to go fight.
Yeah, there's like a Ukrainian foreign legion
kind of thing going on.
Yeah, but that's what I'm saying.
They're not fighting or what are they doing?
But they're not, they're not wearing a French flag.
They're wearing the Ukrainian flag.
Does that make sense?
Like they're fighting for the Ukrainian army?
I don't know if it matters.
Was Europe only sending weapons?
They weren't sending troops to assist with the...
But there were all these people in different countries
like, oh, I wanted to go fight.
Yeah, but I think they're going on like their own volition.
They're not being like sent by...
Like France hasn't declared war on Russia
and mobilized a bunch of French troops with French arms.
But if you're like a French guy,
there's nothing stopping you from traveling to Ukraine.
I think all of them put on Ukraine outfits.
I don't know if that changes anything.
Like I guess we can read a little bit of this.
Trump has warned of one or two thorny issues
as he concludes peace talks with the Ukrainian president,
Vladimir Zelensky on Sunday.
Yeah.
Quote, unquote.
The US president...
Just give it up, Vlad.
We're tired of this.
I promised people in January I'd end the fighting already.
You just keep prolonging it.
So this was Sunday today or how old is this?
I must be today.
It's literally the top thing on Drudge,
but I didn't see that.
Oh, well you said you said talks Sunday
and today's Sunday.
I think they usually do that.
They usually like will say Sunday
because it's like you read it tomorrow too
and they don't have to edit it and say today.
It's for posterity.
Yeah.
So he says that there could be very close to agreeing
Zelensky and the other one Putin on a 20 point peace deal.
I don't know the point,
does the point mean like steps or something?
Yeah, probably like outlined.
Here's 20 points that have to be met
like bulletin or agreement marks.
Sounds right.
It says...
Point number one,
you remove all your troops and give back Crimea.
Zelensky told reporters security guarantees
between the US and Ukraine had been 100% agreed
and that guarantees between the US, Europe
and Ukraine were almost agreed.
Trump said he spoke to Russian leader Vladimir Putin,
sorry, ahead of the meeting.
A Kremlin spokesperson said
both Trump and Putin did not want a temporary ceasefire
ahead of any agreement.
So Trump doesn't want it, that's a little weird.
Like I just don't want that.
Enherged Ukraine to make a decision over the contestant.
Oh, maybe it's like a way to be like,
you gotta make a decision or more people.
Yeah, like forget a ceasefire.
I don't know if he like a ceasefire
and like the war ends
or just we quit shooting at each other for right now.
No, it's a ceasefire.
The war is not over,
but you give yourself like a two week ceasefire
to do the diplomatic thing.
And then if that falls through,
you like start shooting again.
So it says, the main thing I wanted to get
from this article, it says,
it comes as Moscow warned that any European troop
contingents deployed to Ukraine
would become legitimate targets
for Russia's armed forces in comments
published by Russia's state news agency, T-A-S-S.
I didn't know about TASS,
I only know about Russian today or Russia today.
So yeah, okay.
I guess we still would just be speculating
on what that means,
because honestly in my head,
I thought people in Russia or in any country
were like signing up to go
and fighting and probably dying.
I didn't ask or do that.
Like if they're wearing the Ukrainian uniform,
how does he know if they're European like soldiers?
He would just assume
that they're Ukrainian fighters, wouldn't he?
Or maybe during recon,
you find out who's doing what, where?
Yeah, you're gonna go look through everybody's photos
and be like, we can't shoot that guy.
He's technically a European.
No, with the super camera from the drone, man.
Maybe.
Or like an agent on the ground.
Why would he be saying that unless...
Well, I think he's talking about the attached troops
that are teaching the Ukrainians how to use the weapons.
Or as a threat so that they remove their troops, right?
If you're France or England or whomever
and you're helping out the Ukraine people
and you go like, well, we don't want English citizens to die.
You withdraw those troops.
You leave the Ukrainians to fight on their own.
They don't come to a peace deal.
Russia obliterates them and the war is over militarily.
It's really confusing, honestly.
It's like, this is just like, oh, what a tiny little,
it's not a very informative article,
is what I'm trying to say.
I Googled, do European contingents,
because that's what they called it,
fight in Ukrainian uniform.
As I said, yes, foreign volunteers from Europe
and elsewhere join Ukraine's fight often fighting
in Ukrainian uniform.
So are they sometimes not, yeah, whatever.
I mean, it's a little kind of like semantic,
but also it's like, that's the main point
of this article, so I wanted to know what it meant.
I would also suggest to reiterate Angelo's point.
There's a difference between the UK or France
or European countries sending troops
to fight under the European banner,
and European citizens going over there
to fight under the Ukrainian banner.
That would be the distinction trying to be made.
So if France sends troops over
to fight under the French banner,
that's now fair game, whereas a French citizen
fighting under the Ukrainian banner
has always been fair game
because they chose to be there voluntarily.
It's really confusing.
I wrote, do some European contingents
fight in Ukraine with different uniforms?
Yes, foreign fighters, including Europeans in Ukraine,
often wear varied uniforms,
sometimes standard Ukrainian gear,
Western donated kits, or even mismatched modified gear
while Russian forces sometimes use Ukrainian uniforms
for infiltration.
There you go.
Whoa, I never even thought about
if that was against war laws, you know what I mean?
Like, oh, is that a war?
I never thought about that.
Espionage? No, I don't think so.
That seems like standard fare.
We're gonna wear your uniform and trick you,
and then, I don't know, I just never thought about it.
Making armbands like blue and yellow for Ukraine,
imagine somebody comes up and they have a blue and yellow
Ukraine armband, you're like, oh good, you're on my side,
and then they shoot you in the face, that sucks.
Yeah, I think Americans learn that lesson well
with the red coats.
Oh look, they're wearing bright red to the battlefield.
Aim at those guys, whereas if you were wearing
something like non-distinct,
and you're like, oh man, that's just due to the bar.
But did Americans use red coats
in order to trick the red coats?
They should've, if they didn't, they should've.
That might be a thing, and I just didn't know about it.
Or it's foolish, it depends where you're at, right?
Cause if you do that,
you're gonna get shot at by Americans.
Yeah, I feel like in the line formations like that,
and especially with the fog of war
with the black powder guns, I would not wanna be,
yeah, I feel like that's just a way to get shot.
But walking through town?
Well, that's a whole different thing.
Maybe if you're trying to get through a blockade.
Or just trying to pick up on information, right?
If you're doing espionage.
Well, yeah, you could do that,
but you're not moving like a whole,
you're not moving 300 men in espionage.
Drew, what are you doing here?
Yeah, a whole drill.
Right, get back to the front, yes, sir, yes, sir.
Like no, you're like one or two guys
on a secret mission, right?
And you wear the uniform of the enemy
so that they suspect nothing, right?
And then you hold up three fingers the wrong way
and you get shot in a bar.
Well. Sorry.
Niche, I got it, I caught it.
Oh, from that movie, yeah, I've seen it.
Another thing that's just in the news,
not a lot to say about it,
is that Bridget Bardot died at 91.
Honestly, I would have thought she was dead.
Who?
Do you know who that is?
You don't, even you, sorry.
I dropped a camera, sorry, streams.
I don't, which one am I looking at?
Oh, okay, I can see, she was hot back in the day.
She's so, so beautiful.
And apparently she was alive and she was 91
and she just died today or yesterday,
but I didn't know about that.
Honestly, I would have thought she'd be dead.
I recognize the name,
but I would never put a face to it.
She was French, I want to say.
I mean, the last name is definitely French.
Sounds French.
Yeah, this says the pouty,
tousle-haired French actress
who redefined mid-20th century movie sex symbolism.
That camera's foobard down there.
Oh my God, we'll fix it on the break.
Yeah, sorry, everyone.
It fell off the tripod, the plug's undone,
it's in three pieces.
And there's no way for me to be like,
oh, I'm gonna take that one off for the,
and just like use the other one.
I was gonna try and fish it up, but nope, not happening.
Whatever it sees, oh my God,
it just looks at the ground or something,
I see it right now.
That's a frozen image then,
because it's not hooked up.
Oh, really, okay.
Unless there's a battery in there.
Another thing in the news is that Republicans
behind Epstein Files Act,
like the ones that were actually pro-released
in the Epstein Files,
respond to Trump's low-life taunt.
So basically, the main reason
I want to talk about it for a little bit
is that it's Thomas Massey.
Thomas Massey used the president's insult
to raise funds to run against a Trump and Norse candidate.
So he is finally fighting back,
because I don't think we even really talked about it
on the show, but it was a big thing on Twitter.
Trump was like calling out Thomas Massey
in a horrible way, even insinuating
like he cheated on his wife and stuff,
like being horrible to Thomas Massey,
all because Thomas Massey didn't want
to pass some stupid bill of his.
I don't remember if it was the big beautiful bill.
Because Thomas Massey votes his conscience
and doesn't vote party lines.
Yeah, and he'll vote no on things
that the president doesn't want him to,
and if it's just something like...
He's not a real Republican.
He doesn't do what I tell him to do.
Exactly.
So it's ridiculous, and it was really messed up.
And it was like, it was one of the first things
that started making even people on his side
be like, hold up, Trump.
You're like being really crappy right now.
And then the fact he wasn't releasing the Epstein Files
and now that they're like out there,
but they're not really...
So I put this in the host group,
but I don't know if either of you took a look at it,
or if it's been covered on the show.
They've unredacted a whole bunch of the Epstein Files.
Yeah, they dropped a bunch,
but did they, they redacted a ton of it.
Did they unredact the drop?
Hackers unredacted the drop.
Oh yeah, because you could just copy and paste it.
Right.
Yeah, I don't know about that.
Okay, but did be covered on the show was my question.
Oh no, I've seen a lot of pictures though.
I don't know if they photoshopped.
I haven't looked at the real ones,
but I've just seen tweets and it'll be like Epstein,
like half naked in bed,
and there's like a toddler's leg sticking out on a couch.
I saw that and I didn't think it was a toddler.
There's a link in the host group to like a skinny woman.
A folder with the unredacted files.
In my opinion.
If you want to see, instead of just a post here and there,
a bunch of it, someone put it on a website
and then I link to the website in the host chat.
Did you guys see?
This isn't really show prep,
but I thought this was hilarious.
Like young people are taking pictures
where there's like this picture with Epstein,
like sitting and looking like he's kind of like doing
maybe willing and dealing on a private jet
and young people are like photoshopping themselves in
and it's like become a trend,
like photoshopping yourself into the Epstein files
and the private jet.
It seems like a bad idea, but that's hilarious.
It was cracking me up.
But we do have a caller on the line.
So I'm going to go to Turd Ferguson in Pennsylvania.
You're on Free Talk Live.
What's on your mind?
Well, nothing.
There's no better way to enjoy my birthday today
other than a hot tub in my birthday suit.
Wow, you're with no hot chicks.
Your birthday is.
No better way.
He's alone naked in a hot tub.
Gypsy Rose's daughter's birthday.
The day Gypsy Rose got out of prison and Childermoss,
which is the day that they celebrate like King Herod
going after baby Jesus or celebrate.
But you know what I mean?
They remember it or whatever.
I don't know if that's his neighbor's
continue to that's definitely not Jewish.
I'm going to mess up on it.
Maybe that makes me the anti Christ.
I don't know. I hope not.
Oh, have you checked your naked body for Marks of the Beast?
No, you have a 666 swirl in your head.
Good time with a sucky bus.
Actually sounds not too bad right about now.
Maybe getting my soul sucked out would be the would be worth
the best lay of my lifetime.
Who am I to say?
That's the question of the ages,
but the philosophizers, it says,
Childermoss or the Feast of Holy Innocence
falls on December 28th, commemorating the biblical
massacre of male infants in Bethlehem
ordered by King Herod to kill the baby Jesus,
marking these children as the first martyrs.
So it must be Catholic is what it is.
Yeah, it's definitely it's definitely not Jewish.
Yeah, I was like, do they celebrate it?
Yeah, they celebrate King Herod.
And you can eat him in any state, but Idaho.
So, how about it?
Well, happy birthday, Turd.
Yeah, happy birthday, Turd.
Sorry.
Thank you, I appreciate that.
Jokes, I always have to think
about who else's birthday is it and that's what pops up.
Oh, well, yeah, I mean, there's probably a lot of
pretty interesting people that were born today.
On a side note, I think Catholic Catholicism
is the biggest joke in the world, basically.
I mean, there's nothing more pathetic
and stupid than Catholicism, in my humble opinion.
I wish you could come on, I guess,
it's tomorrow, Monday, to the debate
that's going to happen in Independence.
And have you heard about this?
Is that where we're all dressed?
Yeah, I rolled my eyes.
Because I'm interested in going, it's a,
I'm always interested in going to the debates.
Freestayers do and I've never made it to one.
I actually started driving to one.
I was like, it was too late and I turned around once.
It was the, that was the Jeremy Kauffman versus Dennis Pratt.
Is racism like not allowed in libertarianism, you know?
That's a more poignant debate than the one that's upcoming.
Yeah, the one that's upcoming is,
and I really want to vote no, but I would try to be as,
you know, like if I went there and I got convinced
I'd vote yes, whatever.
But the question is.
Well, the statement, the statement is.
The statement is you have to have a majority Christianity
in order to have a libertarian society for a hundred years.
Oh, for a hundred years?
In order to sustain a libertarian society for a hundred years,
the majority of individuals must be Christian.
What do you think about that, Turd?
Um, I, well, I don't know.
That's a pretty absurd question.
I mean, you got to think like, that's so speculative.
I mean, you got to think a hundred years into the future.
Well, that's why they're debating it, Turd.
Someone's going to say like, this is why,
and then the other side is going to say like,
this is why this is dumb.
Well, you can, it is okay to debate things
where you can use objective fact to debate them.
Now, maybe that's just my,
now maybe I'm just so used to using leftists and debate.
You know, debates have just become so easy
because they're, their heads aren't even in the real world.
So maybe that's, that's my problem.
But like, it's like, it's okay to debate objective things.
And by the way, I think, I think if you debate objective things
and you bring in the people that are dumb to debate against,
that's how you're going to win and change the most people's minds.
Because for example, the more foolish you can make Sam Cedar
look for an example and a debate,
the more minds you're going to change.
And you know, that's been happening a lot.
Yeah. Unfortunately libertarians put up Daryl W. Perry
against Sam Cedar and we're, we're, we're set back five to 10 years.
Why is, is Daryl a bad debater?
If you, if you listen to that thing objectively.
I've never listened.
Okay. Well, do yourself a favor and don't.
But Sam Cedar tore apart, got Daryl all fired up and flustered.
And this man looked dumb.
I always thought Daryl was like supposedly a good speaker.
I never listened to any of his free talk live episodes.
I really don't.
I don't know how many concussions he was in at this point then,
but it was, it was not good.
Is he a fighter?
It was, it was on the show.
No, it's football player.
Oh yeah. I mean, I get that.
Yeah.
And then he, I don't know.
He had other concussions.
Like he actually stepped down to rake.
Yeah.
Went up and hit his face like a loony tune episode.
Yeah. And that one like put him out of commission.
He was disabled after that one.
Not trying to make fun of him.
But that was like the mid twenties.
Oh yeah. That was it.
My grandpa would always yell at me.
Like make sure you put the rake down.
Oh really?
No one's ever told me that as if it was a real.
But, but Daryl was like 24 concussions in at that point,
stepped on a rake and then permanently disabled himself.
Sounds so mean.
I'm not trying to be mean.
He's Ian's very good friend.
No, I don't care about Ian's friend.
Daryl W. Perry deserves to be made fun of.
Why?
Bonnie, you're absolutely right to criticize that moron.
I didn't criticize him.
You're like, you're right.
You hate him.
He cartoonishly stepped on a rake and permanently disabled himself.
I'm just shocked that's real.
Yeah. Well, you have to be a serious like cartoon character
to do something like that.
And in fact, Daryl W. Perry does have the IQ level of like Tom from Tom and Jerry.
I honestly thought everyone liked him on the show.
Seriously, it feels like people like that era.
Oh, yeah. No, he's good on the radio.
Okay.
But because on the radio, it's not a real debate.
Oh, yeah.
Right.
And you can yell at people and cut them off.
Basically, every single person that I've,
every single person that I've come in contact with
and talked to about Daryl W. Perry,
all say the same thing about him and that he's a moron.
Every single person I've met says that about Daryl W. Perry.
And by the way, that's one of the moments,
I think that was back in 2016, if I remember correctly.
But that's one of the moments where I kind of stopped taking Libertarian party seriously.
With the Sam Cedar thing?
Because of the person you already don't agree with, that makes no sense.
Well, it's not that I didn't agree with them.
I mean, at the time, I probably agree with them on the law,
but he was just so disingenuous and so idiotic,
talking about making toast in a toaster on the Libertarian debate stage.
Like nobody cares, Daryl.
Just shut your mouth.
You sound like a freaking moron.
Well, I think he still has the domain, toasterlicense.com or something to that effect.
So if you want to get your...
Yeah, that's because that's good.
Well, that's all the evidence you need to know that he's a complete idiot.
And Daryl W. Perry is a disgrace to everybody.
By the way, I actually thoroughly enjoyed watching Sam Cedar destroy Daryl W. Perry.
I got a good chuckle out of it quite frankly.
Is he a complete idiot though?
I mean, you're making fun of the toaster license.
Well, hold on.
You hold on.
You're making fun of the toaster license,
but in like Britain, they have a television license.
It's just another appliance in the house.
That's true.
Well, first of all, I'm going to have to take your word for it on that,
because I don't know if that's true.
No, Bonnie just confirmed it.
It is true.
They just like typically don't enforce it, but sometimes they do.
Okay, even if it is true, you can't eat anything with a TV.
A toaster you can eat stuff with.
But it's still an appliance in the house
that the government could license at some point.
Yeah, but one of them you need to cook food in the other one you don't.
One of them you dang near needed in society only like 10 years ago.
I think the TV is more important than the toaster.
TV feeds your propaganda.
I disagree.
I've got my phone.
Yeah, but like 20 years ago, your phone was less important than the TV was more.
Well, I think the only thing I watched on TV 20 years ago was probably Degrassi.
And by the way, even if I did actually still watch that show,
it would only be for Manny, the young Hispanic chick that always had her thong hanging out.
I thought it was going to be for Drake.
I thought she was Indian.
No, I think she, well, I think she might be Philippine.
Well, she played a Hispanic chick on the show,
but I think she's actually Filipino or something.
She's a very sexy woman.
I think, I mean, of course, I liked her better when she was younger and more fertile.
But she's not really hot.
I mean, she was probably 1920 doing the show anyways.
Don't they usually use it?
Don't have turned off the hook.
Well, when she first started wearing a thong,
she's Filipino and English.
Wow. Wow.
I don't know why I said that.
It's just like, I was right more than you.
There we go.
I was more correct than you.
I was closer.
All right.
I mean, I would say,
isn't Filipino almost the kind of Hispanic though?
I don't know if the Hispanics really went,
like stayed there a lot,
but they took over and gave it like the name of the peso.
Like they actually use pesos and then they have a lot of
Hispanic customs.
The Philippines is one of the lost tribes of Mexico.
Yeah, but the Spanish took it over.
Yeah, but were they actually there?
Like, wouldn't that make them his, like, from the Spanish, right?
Well, Hispanic just means Spanish speaking.
So.
Yeah.
Okay.
I Google, are Filipinos partially Spanish in blood?
And it says many Filipinos have some Spanish ancestry,
but it's generally a small percentage
around two to five percent of the general population.
Yeah, I really don't think so.
I think I'm just right.
It doesn't matter to it.
If you have more to say, I kind of changed your,
I kind of took over your topic there.

From Feature Story News in San Francisco,
I'm Ira Spitzer with a look back at some of the week's top stories.
The United States launched airstrikes against ISIS in the north of Nigeria on Christmas day.
U.S. President Donald Trump said they were to send a message to insurgents in the country,
who he claims are persecuting Christians.
FSN's Jagruti Dave has more from Washington.
Donald Trump has been threatening military intervention in Nigeria for some time,
and this was the justification he gave for these strikes,
which he described as deadly in a social media post.
He said ISIS terrorists scum have been targeting and viciously killing primarily innocent Christians.
He added Merry Christmas to all, including the dead terrorists,
of which there will be many more if their slaughter of Christians continues.
U.S. Africa Command said their initial assessment
is that multiple ISIS terrorists were killed in ISIS camps.
The strikes were coordinated with the Nigerian government,
whose foreign minister said they shared intelligence with the U.S.
India and Bangladesh summoned each other's envoys over protests outside their diplomatic missions
as already tense ties spiral.
The latest round of formal protests come after right-wing groups staged protests
in several Indian cities over the killing of a Hindu garment worker in Bangladesh
over allegations of blasphemy.
FSN's Khashidij Nagar has more from New Delhi.
The summoning of the Indian High Commissioner by Bangladesh
is the second such instance in as many days.
Bangladeshi officials raised objections over protests and what they describe
as a failure to curb demonstrations and targeting its diplomatic missions.
The High Commission in Delhi remains under heavy police deployment,
with security tightened and police forces deployed.
The killing of a Hindu man in northern Bangladesh earlier in the month
triggered public anger in India and sharpened concerns over minority safety.
Indian authorities say they are closely tracking developments.
The escalation comes amid a broader political uncertainty in Bangladesh,
following the ouster of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this year.
U.S. President Trump announced a new type of battleship set to be used by the U.S. Navy
and it is one named after himself, FSN's Mitch McCann reports.
Standing beside the Defense Secretary and the Secretary of State,
Donald Trump announced that the U.S. will build two new Trump-class battleships.
Mr. Trump told reporters on Monday he is calling them the Golden Fleet
and said eventually there'll be 25 of them.
Mr. Trump said the new ships will have 100 times the force and power
of any other battleship ever built and in there will be nothing else like them.
The president said that the U.S. has not built a battleship since 1994
and said each one will be the largest in the history of the world.
He said they will command respect but added that the world already respects America.

So if you do this so often you have to like reference the page for the website?
I never have like honestly but something just happened like I just had to unmute you guys.
Brain freeze. Brain fart there we go.
So with you on Freetalk Live we've got me Bonnie.
Angelo.
And Rich Rich.
And I think that Turd Ferguson still had more to say because he didn't really finish his
last like things he was talking about because I started googling like what ethnicity is that
girl. I always thought she was Indian. She was Filipino and white which equals Indian.
Oh she got us. I really like her. I follow her on Instagram still.
I was going to say before-
What about Bridget Bardot? Was she hot in her youth?
I don't know who that is.
Really?
She's really beautiful.
We just talked about it.
Bridget Bardot was so beautiful.
I think this lady Cassie Steele who played you said Manny on
Degrassi which is a crazy name is really beautiful too.
She kind of looks like a skinnier version of a Vanessa Hudgens.
It's a problem with watching old movies.
You get a crush on an old chick.
I liked Vanessa Hudgens when she was young.
I loved her in Spring Breakers.
She had a banging little body.
Really sexy.
But I was going to say though before the break-
Not that she wasn't skinny yet.
I don't know.
Maybe this lady's face is like skinnier.
Anyways, what are we actually calling about?
I can't remember exactly what I was calling out.
But I was going to say in regards to what you were talking about before the break.
Thomas Massey.
I like Thomas Massey and Rand Paul way more than Donald Trump.
Just endlessly more than Donald Trump.
But I got to say though Donald Trump insulted Thomas Massey.
That was hilarious.
Which one?
He was like what?
He was like oh well that Thomas Massey is getting reburied already.
That was quick.
That's messed up.
That was so...
That was very funny.
Non-classy.
Trump is not the class's person.
It was very choppy and I thought that was very funny.
I'm not saying he was cheating but it's kind of obvious he was.
Yeah, exactly.
That's exactly what he was being like.
Messed up.
Yeah, I mean look.
Come on.
That was funny.
Like...
It's not to me.
He didn't like Thomas Massey.
It's one thing if they just broke up but his wife died.
Yeah, I know.
It was really bad.
What's an appropriate length of time to wait before your spouse dies?
Before you can...
Yeah, well that's...
Your own spouse?
Yeah.
Wow.
I don't really know.
Do you have kids?
Infinity here.
Does that factor in?
I think maybe.
How many years after or months or days after your spouse dies you get to go on
stages, pyrotechnics, wearing sequin jumpsuits, fist pumping.
You really found out at the funeral though, especially if you're a dude,
all the checks are like coming up to console you.
You're like, oh, yeah, it's been a long time.
Wow.
She was sick for so long there was no intimacy and then bam, you're in bed.
So how many days do you have to wait before you're able to start dating someone after
your wife dies?
That's what I'm saying.
He got married a year and like two months later, which was I think fine.
Yeah, got married.
They already knew each other.
He's...
She came over to like console him.
That's what I'm saying.
And raised animals with him or something at the forum and then it ended up they got married.
How did his wife die?
Some kind of a health problem, but I don't know exactly.
Oh, I didn't know if it was like cancer or something.
I mean like, you know that's coming for like years.
No, it was unexpected for sure.
They were like, oh, we didn't expect that she just died.
It was crazy, but also it was a health thing, not like murder.
Well, who knew?
Maybe they had an agreement where she could pre-move on.
Right, just stay with me till the end.
Maybe they had an agreement that we have no clue about and it's like, you know what I mean?
Maybe like they didn't even do anything and he was just like, I had girlfriends.
I'm not saying that that sounds like so bad to say about some man that's like a Republican.
Or maybe he just latched on to the next person to fill the void and he's just running with it
because it hurts too much and he doesn't want to be alone.
Yeah, they were...
Because she showed up to console him and helped him raise animals on the farm.
Right.
That's wife material, man.
Got to lock that down as soon as possible.
Yeah, I mean, you already messed one up.
Technically, right?
You already fumbled the bag once.
No, you didn't.
You didn't even have any time of natural causes.
The bag has been fumbled regardless if you had fumbled it or not.
She's gone.
She's not there anymore.
I don't think that's saying it was.
That's till death do us part, though.
That's fulfilling the contract.
But to get it twice in a row, I don't know.
Good on him.
Yeah, well, who...
If his third wife dies of cancer as well,
right, then we got a question, what's he doing over there?
Feeding them round up or something.
It doesn't seem like the type, right?
Yeah, I don't think so.
Oh, like make America healthy again and stuff?
I don't know if he's part of that.
No, it seems like he would be against the roundup
and the corporations based on things he said in his voting record, et cetera.
Right, like...
Yeah, who would have known that Thomas Massey
would it was as based as he is?
I mean, he sounds like he listens to Caleb Jones.
Caleb Jones, the old advertiser on Freetalk Live.
Thomas Massey's a total alpha male 2.0.
Who would have guessed, dude?
He's probably a lifelong Freetalk Live listener.
Scooping up Caleb Jones' content on his Mark Edge sponsored webinar.
Well, if that's true, if he's a lifelong Freetalk Live listener,
please, Thomas Massey, call us in and fill in the gaps here.
If he was a lifelong Freetalk Live listener,
I'd be really sad right now because...
Did he never call them?
No, I wouldn't want him to hear me saying all this stuff.
Well, that's fine, but now he can call...
What do you mean?
He's remarried. He's moved on.
I know, but we were like...
Way too quickly according to Trump.
Yeah, that was rude, horrible.
And then turping like, well, that was funny.
I want to know when Freetalk Live is going to have Thomas Massey on his guess
because I want to call in and ask him, what his wife let's her do to her and how long
and how long did he have to wait?
Then I'll hang up on you.
And probably never because Freetalk Live really doesn't do political guess all that frequently.
Yeah.
It's not really...
If they want on, they have the number.
Well, look, you're the ones that consider yourselves a bunch of law deterrients.
Maybe it's worth having Thomas Massey on.
He's the closest thing you're ever going to get to another Ron Paul.
I'm pretty sure Ian would be accepting of a Thomas Massey thing,
but also like, why would we go out of our way for it right now?
It's like, you know, not necessary.
Well, let me ask you this, Bonnie, would you have Ron Paul on if you wanted to come on?
Yeah, we have.
I think you have had Ron Paul on if I'm not mistaken.
Exactly. Ron Paul is an exception for so many rules for one thing.
That's what I'm saying.
Many libertarians only vote of all time.
Like Freetalk Live has had guess, but it's not really the format of the show.
Well, Thomas Massey is a Kentucky representative.
I mean, maybe all the law deterrients that listen to Freetalk Live in Kentucky,
all voted for him.
You don't know.
Why not have him on to find out?
That's all I'm saying.
I would be shocked if Creighton didn't vote for him if he's in the right area or whatever it is.
Why don't you reach out to him and give him the Freetalk Live phone number
and he can call in like anybody else and tell us whatever you want.
Exactly. There have been more of them, one person at like,
especially Liberty Forum, that's like, I'm running for an office
and they come up to the Freetalk Live table and they're like,
oh, I should be on.
And I tell them about how they can call in and they never do
and they almost seem offended at the moment.
And the first time that ever happened in any case at all,
which has happened with way more than just politicians at this point,
Ian told me that that's like what always happens.
And he was totally right.
Like, especially people running for some sort of office,
especially like presidents.
Like, anyways, other than Aaron Day, who's awesome,
who ran for president and he was just amazing to be on the show.
Oh my God, it's all picky and choosy.
Like you guys, because it's our show.
Well, look, I mean, you guys had Spike Cullin or Joe Jorgensen.
What was so special about Joe Jorgensen?
That wasn't a you guys as in me that was eating.
And I honestly, I don't get that.
I didn't like her.
No, I think it was.
She was one of the most principled,
libertarian candidates in recent memory.
That's why.
Really?
I don't know.
Was she pro-jabbed though?
Maybe.
She wasn't like pro-wish.
She just wouldn't renounce it.
It was really annoying people.
It's like, oh, this actually went annoying people on Freetalk Live,
including Ian and Arya.
They're like, you come on Freetalk Live saying,
you're not going to talk about the most important stuff going on right now.
Like why?
You could have used that to get attention and stuff.
And also, you know, use your voice.
Arya was all head over heels for, which I can't understand.
Well, I guess I can because Arya is a total establishmentarian act.
Again, because prior to that, you had Bob Barr and Bill Weld and Gary Johnson,
which weren't libertarians.
What's what?
Well, maybe you should look.
Maybe you should have had them on too.
I would have loved to have been able to scrutinize her.
I tried to scrutinize Joe Jorgensen the day she called it.
I wanted to ask her about her maniac co vice president.
Spike Cohen.
Who was it?
Oh, Spike Cohen?
He was like appearing.
He was like appearing naked on all his interviews.
I mean, come on.
I mean, how was anybody?
Naked?
No, he wasn't.
Arya, I tried to ask Joe Jorgensen about that.
Arya wouldn't even let me on the phone to ask her.
So Arya is a hack.
She can't, she's all about the person, whoever she's voting for,
and nobody can give any scrutiny to the person who he is voting for.
I'm sorry.
Because Arya is a man.
And that really made me mad.
I really, I would have actually like to ask her some real questions,
but Arya wasn't having it.
What was Spike Cohen actually naked at any point?
Are you just saying like he was doing like shirtless interviews?
Well, yeah.
He was shirtless naked.
He's certainly shirt off.
He's a vice presidential candidate.
I mean, give me a break, dude.
Come on.
I mean, RFK took his shirt off a bunch and he was like a presidential candidate.
Well, RFK's body looks way closer to mine than Spike Cohen's does.
Sloppy.
I have the body.
Depends what the purpose was.
Right.
If, if, well, again, depends what the purpose was.
Like if you're, if you're getting an interview.
The purpose is to be a moron.
If the purpose is to, is to, is to, is regardless of the purpose is to
like make you less seriously because of it, who cares?
I want to answer that.
But if the purpose is to like drive attention to the Libertarian party.
This is weird.
You're going to get more attention by being reckless and creative than you are just
having a no nothing interview.
This is why McAfee should have been presidential candidate 2016.
Oh, no, see, and I wanted vermin supreme.
Oh yeah.
I would have liked that too.
But my favorite was all the trolling that Trump was doing, right?
Vermin supreme was the perfect foil for it.
That was the time.
That was the only reason I ended up voting for Trump.
I'm not the only reason that was like the ultimate reason I ended up voting for Trump.
I got convinced by people that I was like going to let Hillary Clinton win.
But I feel like if it was like vermin supreme or McAfee, I couldn't have done it.
I would have been like, no, I'm voting for them.
But I just never, I never let me, I never understood that like no,
but there was no way that Hillary Clinton was going to win Utah.
So I did throw my vote away and that I threw my vote away to Trump.
But the Trump, the Republicans and Democrats are going to have a
debate outside some building and vermin supreme is not going to be invited.
And he's going to show up with a pony and a bullhorn and 17 ties on, right?
And make a scene out front of the debate building to draw attention to his candidacy.
But you don't think McAfee would have done something like that similar?
No, no.
I think he would have.
Not to the extreme vermin supreme, like with the boot on the head, like he is a character.
I loved him too, but I actually like McAfee more.
You need to, fine, as a presidential candidate, fine.
Yeah.
Right.
But this is not to win.
This is to actively anti troll Trump.
I think he would have done something crazy to McAfee.
Okay.
You know, vermin supreme was the first, uh, like I guess I was like 15, 14, 15.
That's like the first time I ever heard about like whatever we're doing up here.
Okay.
New Hampshire.
Yeah.
Well, yeah.
He's from New Hampshire.
Yeah.
Oh, he's from here.
Yeah.
That's from Massachusetts or something.
Oh, maybe.
Well, I mean to me in Oregon, that's all the same place.
In this area.
Yeah.
But was he talking about like the free sea?
Well, no, like vermin supreme and like the libertarians and uh,
I think that's the first time I heard of like pork fest too.
I kind of, I was like,
This guy's crazy.
Um, I'm going to look into this more because this is kind of silly.
That's what I'm saying.
But that's, that's why that's what pulled me in.
I was like, what is he talking about?
So spike Cohen being naked on an interview, right?
Well, this dude's a little nuts, right?
Let me look into this a little bit further and then you get hooked on the principles.
No, that's ridiculous.
And it didn't happen.
That's a problem is your theory.
You can say that all you want, but nobody got hooked on anything.
If anything, we lost libertarians in the, in the span.
I mean, I think, I think that was the like, I think.
Yeah.
I mean, libertarian voting has been on the decline since Gary Johnson,
actually, if I'm not mistaken, he got the highest way lower.
So if you, if you really want to invite people into the movement,
Richard Rich, you should actually be, be kissing Gary Johnson's ass.
Cause he's done more for it than Joe Jorgensen.
I think it was just the time.
Except he's not a libertarian.
That was the problem.
It wasn't Johnson's.
It wasn't anything about him.
It wasn't anything about Gary Johnson.
And it was just simply the time.
Anybody who ran at that time would have gotten the record libertarian votes.
I really think so.
Like if McAfee had won, I seriously think he would have gotten way more.
Well, I don't know.
I mean, Gary Johnson was, Gary Johnson came off as very reasonable.
And nobody wanted that at that time.
Like people were voting for Trump.
Well, I guess in the long run he did, but Gary Johnson still got way more votes
than any other libertarian candidate.
And if it would have been anyone else,
they would have also gotten a record amount as genuine.
Definitely what I'm going to say.
And I will also say, I think McAfee would have gotten even more.
Cause he'd be so incredibly like in everybody's faces.
People are like, well, this guy's crazy.
And it would have been like getting the word out instead.
But you're just speculating.
But you don't, you can't know that.
You're just speculating.
I know for a fact that the anybody that ran as a libertarian
would have gotten record votes in 2016.
Like I'm going to say with that, I'll put my life on it.
Like God strike me down right now if I'm wrong.
How convenient.
You can't say you would have got more votes than Gary Johnson.
No, I didn't say that.
I said anybody that ran at all for the libertarian party,
unless they like really screwed it up by like going up and saying like,
I'm for child rape or something,
would have absolutely gotten the most of all time at that time.
It's, it's literally has nothing to do with Gary Johnson.
No one, no one would believe it has something to do with Gary Johnson.
If I asked, if I asked Daryl Perry, right,
who ran for president in 2016, if I,
if he thinks that I should be able to rape children,
he'd probably say yes.
Cause that's how insane Daryl W. Perry is.
No, I mean.
If you think he would have said that on the debate stage,
I really don't think so.
If Daryl W. Perry had won.
He would have checked for consent.
I don't, I have no idea what Daryl Perry would say.
Now you're just like changing the subject.
Nobody would have ever voted for the libertarian party,
again, had Daryl W. Perry won.
Okay. And that's a whole new topic.
Right. The problem with Gary Johnson is he wasn't a libertarian.
He brought in non-libertarians.
Like his vice president.
And as soon as they, well,
you talked about the decline of libertarian voters,
right? When they realized what libertarianism is,
they left. Like he came in and then he left
because they weren't principled libertarians.
That's your fault.
It doesn't sound like that.
So that's a you problem, not him.
He got to be able to vote for you.
You haven't done that.
I'm not running for office.
It's not a me problem either.
I appreciate you have run for office.
Yeah, didn't you?
Never.
Oh, maybe I'm mixing Europe with somebody.
The biggest idiot in the libertarian movement,
almost as bad as Daryl W. Perry,
won the nomination last year.
I don't even remember the guy's name.
Chase Oliver's stupid.
Did you win any or not win,
but did you get any public office but no voting?
No, I never run a run in camp, right in campaign.
There's somebody on the show that was like,
they have like a, they won like a minor thing.
And maybe it's a Chris Reitman.
I know he's has a minor thing.
Chase Oliver is a skinny little faggot
running around wearing his masks
and taking his COVID jabs,
because he's so afraid.
Oh, I'm so afraid of COVID.
Oh, let me run for personal.
But that's a personal choice
and has nothing to do with libertarian theory.
I really don't like it about him.
And it was enough for me to be like,
I'm not voting for him.
That's fine.
Yeah, definitely.
But he made a personal choice
that you disagree with.
Yeah, I agree with that.
Who cares about anything
to a libertarian theory?
The point is it's ingenuous.
Nobody can take him seriously.
Part of running for office.
And also he lied.
That's the thing that drove me crazy
was he lied.
And I proved that he lied on Twitter.
He said that he never said
so-and-so is such a thing.
And I found the tweets where he said it's crazy.
It's like, I find that insane.
Yeah, I forgot about that until just now.
Let's not pretend that there weren't libertarians
in favor of masks in the jab.
Yeah, there were.
I'm not saying it's not libertarian.
Just simply, there would be nobody on earth
that I would vote for that was pro that crap.
He said, I'm going to Thanksgiving dinner
and everybody else should,
and I'm asking everybody else should too.
Like at the time I was going to the meetup groups
in Manchester and it was split down the middle.
Right, there were some people that were livid
that we were having meetups still
and not self-isolating.
Well, I hope you're happy with those people, Richie Rich,
because they're the ones that are still
in your little libertarian movement,
the ones that think it's,
the one that think it's a-okay
with your precious little non-aggression principle
to force you to take the jab and force you to-
No, they never forced to take,
they never promoted forcing the jab.
The people that I know that are even pro masks-
They just chose to take it.
The only people I know that were even pro masks
are like basically not in the movement anymore anyway.
Like, don't talk to anyone.
I could be wrong as far as people you know, but-
Look, one of the first person to like
wear the N95 mask around here was Matt,
for the host of the show.
But he did changes and he flipped his scripts.
He flipped afterwards,
but like he was like,
no, I got a box of N95s and this and that
because like these things,
you know, they're wearing hazmat suits in China
and I have a medical condition.
Yeah, he has a medical condition
and he was actually,
I was on the same mindset as Matt
at the very beginning before I moved to New Hampshire
because I was like, I wasn't thinking,
oh, I'm so scared of every cold.
I was like, oh, they're finally doing the thing
where they're going to kill us all.
Do you see what I'm saying?
Like, I thought the government released it
and I ended up being right about that.
And Mark is vaccinated.
Yeah.
So-
But that was only because he wanted to go for it.
Whatever justification you want.
And he would never say everybody should be vaccinated.
That's the only point.
And everyone around would say that.
Every more the mask everywhere.
Or maybe he did like in airlines.
The people in Manchester preferred self-isolation.
They were mad that we weren't doing it,
but they couldn't do anything about it
nor were they promoting it.
Anybody that still hangs out?
I haven't gone to the meet-ups in several years.
Yeah, I wouldn't know.
I wasn't there at the very beginning.
But I was there at the time.
Anything else on your mind right now, Turd?
And I had someone pull me aside.
I'm all talked out.
Just happy birthday to me.
I was going to say that.
And yeah, I'll accept birthday presents in the form of
gold, silver, or full frontal nudity
if you have a particularly feminine, sexy body.
You know what I mean?
Well, happy birthday Turd.
Sorry, you're not getting any presents from us this year.
We sent you a pen to real estate, Turd.
I'm not afraid of full frontal.
Somebody told, oh yeah, yeah, is it very feminine?
You can just go ahead and send that.
Turd will have to decide once he sees it.
Awesome.
I hope you heard that because I had one mute.
So wait, before I answer the next call really fast,
I was going to say, man, I forgot, sorry.
Dave Ridley in Wyoming.
You're on Freetalk Live.
What's on your mind?
I should almost change your name to Dave Ridley
Wyoming.
Oh, sorry.
Wait, Colorado.
Right, Dave Ridley?
Yeah, I'm in Colorado right now.
One of the rectangle states.
So what's the rectangle?
Oh, yes, exactly.
Literally that's what my brain pops up as soon as I say those ones.
I'm calling in to report the most restrictive school board meeting I've ever attended.
And I've attended a lot of school board meetings in a lot of places.
Oh, wow.
So this was in Colorado Springs here.
And so I go to district 11.
I'm not even going to be able to get through all the items here, probably,
in this one call, all the crazy things that happened.
But the first thing that happened was I walked up to the building
where the school board meeting was to be held.
It was in like mid-afternoon and it was pretty cold.
And I go up to the front door.
No one's allowed in.
Citizens are not allowed into the building.
At all or yet?
Well, they will allow you in briefly during the meeting.
Okay.
So this was not a school.
This was just an administrative building.
And so I step back and there's a sign that says,
the lines, this is where you line up to go into the school board meeting here outside.
Line starts here.
So I knock on the door.
They want to come to the door.
They still won't let me in.
Meeting starts in about 15 minutes.
I want to do ambush interviews with my camera as people are coming and going.
But anyway, eventually, I'm allowed into the building.
Hardly anyone is, of course, attending the meeting,
except the bureaucrats and the politicians.
Just the way they like it.
Yeah.
Next thing that happens, they demand an ID
for me to be able to watch the meeting at the front desk.
And so I refused to provide one,
but I did write down my name for them.
Then they let me in.
And then begin, of course, this is all on video,
and you can see it at RidleyReport.com.
Sir, is this video where they gave you permission to record?
Well, I didn't ask for permission,
but I was just openly holding a camera.
So were you able to ambush interview anyone,
or was it just made impossible?
Well, actually, I ambush interviewed some people outside
before it even started.
And so then once I was inside,
I was able to continue doing that.
And by the way, all these people,
you hear all these crazy things that they do,
they're all really polite.
So that was the only good thing I can really report.
Well, one of two things.
But anyways, the next thing, I start moving towards the...
I haven't even gotten to the outskirts of the meeting yet,
and I've already seen something else.
Like this guy that's decked out,
like he's ready for the SWAT team,
or something like that.
That's their security.
And of course, guns are banned inside.
And then I get to the outskirts of the meeting,
and the next thing that happens,
I start, I do some ambush interviews,
that goes okay.
And I walk into the meeting room,
and I start taking some pictures
right after the meeting has started.
So I'm just kind of standing there,
taking a few pictures.
And then the security approaches me again and says,
well, you're not allowed to stand up
while taking pictures.
You're not allowed to be standing.
But you're allowed to take pictures from a seated position.
You must sit down while filming.
Did you hold your camera above your head then
to get the same angle of view?
So we whisper back and forth,
and then I said, would you stop panel 11
from using a tripod?
Eyeball height?
Well, no, we wouldn't.
Are you media?
Like, yes.
And where's your government's permission to be media?
Wow.
Do you have your credentials that you can show us?
This is all, I'm only halfway through here.
Okay, let's keep,
let's continue if you have more time.
603-283-6160, more free talk live coming up.
So the protection of life,
liberty and properties
is what the Free State Project is all about.
But it's an effort to move 20,000 people
who understand.
It's about demonstrating to the entire country.
That, yeah, we can have a free market,
a truly free market.
Making it just a free, great place to live.
It's the world's largest
volunteerist, libertarian community
and it's only getting bigger.
That's amazing to be able to move to a place
where other people passionately believe
in being free and independent.
What the Free State Project is managing to do though
is to put their money where their mouth is.
Physically getting up across the country
and saying, let's go someplace
and let's demonstrate the power of these ideas.
There's a lot of kind of philosophy
that surrounds liberty.
There's a lot of thinking about it
and talking about it.

From Feature Story News in San Francisco,
I'm Ira Spitzer with a look back
at some of the week's top stories.
The United States launched air strikes
against ISIS in the north of Nigeria
on Christmas Day.
U.S. President Donald Trump said
they were to send a message
to insurgents in the country
who he claims are persecuting Christians.
FSN's Jagruti Dave has more from Washington.
Donald Trump has been threatening
military intervention in Nigeria for some time
and this was the justification
he gave for these strikes,
which he described as deadly
in a social media post.
He said ISIS terrorist scum
have been targeting and viciously
killing primarily innocent Christians.
He added Merry Christmas to all,
including the dead terrorists,
of which there will be many more
if their slaughter of Christians continues.
U.S. Africa Command said
their initial assessment
is that multiple ISIS terrorists
were killed in ISIS camps.
The strikes were coordinated
with the Nigerian government
whose foreign minister said
they shared intelligence with the U.S.
India and Bangladesh summoned each other's envoys
over protests outside their diplomatic missions
as already tense ties spiral.
The latest round of formal protests
come after right-wing groups staged protests
in several Indian cities
over the killing of a Hindu garment worker
in Bangladesh over allegations of blasphemy.
FSN's Khashidij Nagar has more from New Delhi.
The summoning of the Indian High Commissioner
by Bangladesh
is the second such instance in as many days.
Bangladeshi officials raised objections
over protests and what they described
as a failure to curb demonstrations
and targeting its diplomatic missions.
The High Commission in Delhi remains
under heavy police deployment
with security tightened
and police forces deployed.
The killing of a Hindu man
in northern Bangladesh earlier in the month
triggered public anger in India
and sharpened concerns over minority safety.
Indian authorities say
they are closely tracking developments.
The escalation comes amid
a broader political uncertainty in Bangladesh
following the ouster
of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this year.
U.S. President Trump announced a new type of battleship
set to be used by the U.S. Navy
and it is one named after himself.
FSN's Mitch McCann reports.
Standing beside the Defense Secretary
and the Secretary of State,
Donald Trump announced that the U.S.
will build two new Trump class battleships.
Mr. Trump told reporters on Monday
he is calling them the Golden Fleet
and said eventually there'll be 25 of them.
Mr. Trump said the new ships
will have 100 times the force
and power of any other battleship ever built.
And in there will be nothing else like them.
The President said that the U.S.
has not built a battleship since 1994
and said each one will be the largest
in the history of the world.
He said they will command respect
but added that the world
already respects America.
Mitch McCann, New York.
From Bureau's Worldwide, this is FSN.
The U.S. confirmed it carried out a strike
on an alleged drug smuggling boat
killing one person.
Along with the seizure of another
Venezuelan oil tanker over the weekend,
it continues the pressure campaign
against Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro.
FSN's Nick Harper reports from Washington.
The U.S. military confirming that it had killed
what it called one Narco Terrorist.
It released footage of that strike
with the U.S. Southern Command confirming on X
that it had carried out the attack
upon the direction of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
It said the boat had been transiting
along known narco-trafficking routes.
But all of this as Venezuela has called
for an urgent meeting at the U.N.
Security Council to push back on what it's called
the aggression of the United States.
China and Russia both coming out
with strong support for Caracas,
with China saying that the U.S.
was in serious violation of international law
with its continued actions against Venezuela,
its oil tankers and alleged drug smuggling boats.
I'm Nick Harper in Washington.
A car bomb killed a top military official in Moscow.
FSN's Daria Bondarchuk reports from the Russian capital.
A car bomb exploded in southern Moscow on Monday
killing General Fanil Sarvarov.
He headed the operational training directorate
of the Russian army's general staff.
The top military official was blown up
in the parking lot of his apartment building,
reported liminates after he sat in his car
and traveled just a few meters.
He became the third person of his rank
to be killed in car bombing incidents
over the past 12 months.
Russia's investigative committee says
Lieutenant General Sarvarov was killed
in explosion possibly orchestrated
by Ukrainian intelligence services.
Daria Bondarchuk, Moscow.

Clownfish share a symbiotic relationship
with sea anemones.
The clownfish cleans the sea anemone.
In exchange, the anemone sprays urine
on the face of the clownfish.
It's one fetishistic delight.
Contrary to popular belief,
sea urchins are not in fact animals.
Indeed, they are not alive at all.
They are simply the clumped together
leavings of the ocean's denizens.

And Richie Rich.
And let's go back to our calls.
We have Dave Ridley from ridleyreport.com
on free talk live.
What's on your mind?
So yeah, just continuing my story about the most
authoritarian school board meeting I've ever attended.
Sounds about right.
This is crazy.
This is in Colorado, right, to make sure?
Colorado Springs, yes.
My latest update on the deteriorating
political situation in Colorado.
But anyway, after ordering me to sit down
while filming, instead of standing while filming,
they order me to the...
They say, well, okay, after extended
whispered negotiations, they say,
okay, you're allowed to stand,
but you have to stand behind the school board,
which is very difficult.
I had to just squeeze behind these people
who are the school board to get to this position
that they said, there, you're allowed to stand.
What was their answer for your tripod question
for Channel 9?
I think that's where...
You have a tripod in this horrific location,
in this little cramped location,
where only one tripod would fit.
I think they said, yeah, they wouldn't
apply the same scrutiny to Channel 9
as they did to Dave Ridley.
And then that's when they were like,
well, where's your government-issued identification?
You know, actually, they didn't say it had
to be government-issued.
So I'm fairness to them.
Okay.
So if I gave that impression, I apologize.
But you should pull out your Ron Swanson
piece of paper that says, I'm allowed to do this.
I can do whatever I want.
I can do whatever I want, yeah.
Yeah.
So the next thing...
So I really don't care what they're talking about.
In the school board meeting,
I can't hear it very well on the camera anyway.
I'm just trying to establish the rules in the area, right?
So I filmed there just for a minute or two,
and then I go ahead and head back out
to the outskirts of the school board meeting,
which is where I spend most time
doing ambush interviews and stuff like that.
Well, another thing I'll do when I'm out of school,
since you can't document what's going on
in the classrooms really,
you know, allowed to film any of that
or go in there even.
So I usually will try to just find out
what the propaganda is on the walls.
So the walls of a school or a school administrative building
are pretty interesting to me,
and I like to at least look at them
and film some of them
if anything looks interesting.
And so I start walking down one of the halls
to try and do this, and they stop me.
Sir, where are you going?
You need to remain within 20 meters
of the school board meeting.
What?
And then I...
Preach the perimeter!
What would happen if, to me,
Mr. Security Officer with the school board,
if I were to continue walking in this direction,
away from the school board meeting down this hallway,
he said,
I would call the police on you
and we'd have you charge with criminal trespass.
Okay.
Again, with complete politeness.
So I've got a question for you,
but I want to preface this,
and maybe it's not your style.
I used to listen to a podcast,
I have no idea if they're still on the air,
called Rule of Law Radio.
And one of their tactics,
they were more in the courtroom type of thing.
One of their tactics was they knew the rules in advance.
So they knew all the rules for the court proceedings,
for whatever it is they had to do,
and they would then bait the court,
the court officials into breaking the rules
so that they could then file a lawsuit
and make some money off of this.
So rather than going to the,
rather than going to the school board meeting
and kind of feeling your way through it,
if there would be a way for you to get the rules in advance
and then just allow them to, you know,
to violate the rules,
and you document this all
and then just file a lawsuit against them
and say, hey, here's the rules,
here's where you violated,
my rights have been, you know,
my rights have been violated
as far as this proceeding is concerned,
and then, you know,
bait them to change their actions
in some form or fashion that way
as a form of activism.
Your thoughts?
Yeah. Yeah, that's one of the reasons
I do it the way I do it
is it's an easy, quick way
to get other people to come up
with even better ideas, right?
I didn't have to do any research,
I just pop in, pop out,
and that gave you the idea
that, no, maybe people should do it this other way
and that will give other ideas
and so we'll continue to have this synergy, I hope,
but there is more to the story.
Okay, go ahead.
So as a final coup de gras,
the school district
sees the bed and breakfast
that I was renting
and the entire neighborhood.
Wait, what do you mean?
Per imminent domain,
they expanded their football field.
I was renting a bed and breakfast
near one of their schools
and they seized the entire
neighborhood.
So completely unrelated
to your encroachment
onto the school board?
Correct, they didn't even know.
So wait, can you repeat
because on my head
we're still in the school board mode,
so what did they do
to the bed and breakfast?
They seized it using
eminent domain to expand the football field.
Certainly after I shot the video,
they seized the entire neighborhood.
Just to get back at Dave.
Wait, you're saying like a week building,
you were running a bed and breakfast,
a whole building and everything?
No, I was just renting a room
in the bed and breakfast.
Well, not a room.
Oh, you were renting it.
I thought you said running it,
but yeah, that's still really crazy.
Oh, just to expand the football field.
Does this,
what foot,
is it a college or for the high school?
It was for the high school.
Do they win games?
Who knows?
I mean, if they're good,
if they're good.
If you need to expand the football field,
it's clearly because you're going
from the American rules
to the Canadian rules
and you need an extra 10 yards.
Well, if they're like rebuilding the stadium,
I don't want to put,
I don't want to put millions of dollars
into a losing program.
That's a waste.
You got to put the millions of dollars
in to build the program, man.
It's not coming from the stadium.
You're not going to put the football into the stadium.
None of this makes it okay to steal from people.
Like a bed and breakfast,
some old couple.
I was being more facetious than anything, like.
Facetious?
Facetious.
I'm, you know what I'm saying.
Yeah, I do.
Facetious.
But yes, I would say that I knew
you weren't being like 100% serious,
but I just want to make sure that
my thought is out on the record.
It's just like that's really gross.
If you build it, they will come.
You build the stadium up.
You get people to show up.
Those people donate to the program.
You can recruit better athletes.
You can hire better coaches to train them.
Like you got to,
you got to build up the facilities
to attract the right talent
to build the program.
I don't know if it works.
It necessarily would work like that.
For some reason,
where my little brother and sister
played basketball,
they were the tiniest people
no matter who they played against.
We were always like,
these kids are the same age?
Has else what ever told you that?
Yeah.
It's so weird.
I started wondering if like
Dugway Proving Ground like has some poison
in the water that it was making us all smaller.
I mean, I was done growing, but
isn't that weird?
Like, I don't think there was any like,
oh, making a new stadium
that would have made them better.
Well, I feel like you just get a lot of,
like since Dugway is like a military place,
you're just getting like
a lot of randomness.
And then when you go play
other ridiculously tiny schools,
it's just a bunch of farmers kids.
So those are a bunch of farmers kids.
And like on Dugway,
there's a bunch of farmers kids
that get to go.
And then the very few people that have kids
that are like actually mandated to stay there.
There were way more just like random people
that lived around the area.
Then actually like my dad being stationed there,
that was like a very small unit
and it was just the clinic.
So like, I don't know, it was something weird.
If you have parents that are involved
in their kids like sports lives
and sports career,
and you can say like,
you can play on this podunk dirt field,
like in the district that you're in,
or you can move like two miles west
and play in this elite athletic facility.
You don't think that that facility
is going to attract better athletes
to move to that location?
Yeah, that's a good point.
I thought you were saying like just within the school.
Oh, and now I was really good,
but I was never going to play
to gain those extra 10 yards.
No, you're building the program.
It's not going to,
it's likely not going to turn it around year one.
Yeah, yeah.
But 10 years,
once the program's built
and like they got the systems in place
and I got the best weight room
in the district or in the state.
It still grosses me out.
You're going to get athletes to show up, man.
It grosses me out that anything
is like stealing somebody's bed and breakfast
is to make more sports sports.
Completely separate issue.
Yeah, I knew that you weren't making that
as a defense to the eminent domain or anything.
Well, that's really kind of messed up.
You have a new place to live now, Dave Ridley.
I had to flee to Wyoming.
Oh, so I was wrong.
I was wrong.
Did they take it that quick?
They took it that quickly?
Well, I mean, I didn't really have to.
Okay, but I just, you know,
I wanted to get out of Colorado.
And I have to keep coming back to Colorado Springs
because this is what will happen to all three stateers
if they live long enough.
And that is their parents will get old
and their parents will need help.
So I have to do a lot of caregiver duty for the moment.
I've got a sister on my mom's side
and a sister on my dad's side to take care of that.
I'm going nowhere.
Nice.
So the place you live in Wyoming is still pretty close.
Wyoming is, that part of Wyoming is,
you know, maybe three hours away from Colorado Springs.
Okay.
Well.
Yeah, because most of the people
that live in Wyoming only live like three hours
from Colorado Springs.
That by car or by horse.
Well, do you have any?
I promise there were, I indicated there were,
there were a couple of other good things
about this, this crowd, this school board
and the politicians and all that.
Okay.
And that is a lot of them were actually willing
to answer a question of mine,
that it's normally I don't get this answered
when I ask politicians, you're a crap.
And I asked a lot, you know,
what, you know, what they had done
to help save taxpayer money,
anything they'd done to help reduce
expenses.
And I got, I think about three different answers
on that question.
Normally they have no idea.
And that was good.
And the other thing that was good was that
there was no, no attempt to interfere with me filming.
There was no one even looked at me cross-wise
for filming.
So that's, that's some things they got right.
What were some of the answers they gave you
for how they were saving taxpayer money
for the ones that did answer?
Security guard.
I asked him and he was, he wasn't a security guard.
He was more like a security bureaucrat, I think.
And he said that, you know,
because he wasn't all decked out
in the SWAT team like the other guy.
But the, he said something like,
I think he reduced, I think he reduced his staff.
Which I thought that was probably actually
the second most impressive answer I've ever heard.
His what?
His staff.
He reduced, he reduced his staff.
He went from a wizard staff to a wand.
Yeah.
I remember when you asked people at the King
New Hampshire Library and one of them just said like,
Oh, I, I try to save paper
when I'm making copies and stuff like that.
I mean, like, it's an answer.
Not that impressive though.
I do everything front and back, collated.
Exactly, exactly.
Something just ridiculous like that.
Well, I don't know.
I want to get your story.
Is there, is your video up on ridleyreport.com?
Yeah.
Because I really, I want to send it to Forest Mommy.
She's a politician and politically active person
in Colorado.
Oh.
It'd be so cool.
She, and she has a huge Twitter following.
So if she felt shared it, that'd be awesome.
So I'll send it to her.
But anything else?
Finally getting her Twitter views through someone else now.
Yeah, seriously.
It's ridiculous.
Shut up and me.
And I've looked it up.
One site refuses to tell me if I'm shadow banned
and another one says I'm not.
But I literally got like a notification that said like,
you're going to be temporarily throttled
while we investigate your account.
Like I might be using the wrong exact words
but I took a picture and the next day it said like,
Okay, it's over and it never recovered.
It's just never been the same.
It was like night and day noticeable.
It's really annoying.
So I'm definitely shadow banned on Twitter.
Did you ever post one of those polls that say like,
you know, can you, are you reading this now?
Yes or no?
Oh no.
I just tweeted yesterday about how annoying it was
and like I got two responses.
Okay.
Like kind of like.
Because I've seen people use the poll, right?
Like if you're a follower of mine and you see this,
like just click the yes button.
So I know, you know, of the, of the thousand people
I have following me,
how many people have actually seen this?
Yeah.
Maybe I will honestly, it's like really annoying.
It's like, I mean,
I'm going to stop paying for the check mark.
I'm going to like the only reason I really have Twitter,
like seriously,
like if I wanted to like quit the thing that makes me like,
Oh, I can't is like being able to advocate for Ian.
It's like, that's like my biggest following anywhere.
I don't use social media anywhere else.
So it's it.
Well, anything else on your mind,
Dave release not trying to hold you captive on the phone.
Well, one solution.
Yeah.
One solution that Tom Woods is pushing as a site
called Noster as an alternative to other social media.
I guess it's sort of like the Bitcoin of social media.
Yeah.
I actually hear my friend yelling at me about this right now
in my head because you're so right.
Like there have been other people
trying to tell me to go on there.
So you're going to go on there
and you're going to get five views instead of 12.
Maybe.
Let's see.
Maybe I'll make one like later.
Well, thank you for the call, Dave.
It's that I love to hear it.
Love to hear about stuff like that.
I haven't really seen much activism like that
going on New Hampshire recently.
And it's always so fun.
I'm not like mad at anyone for it.
Like I could be doing it if I wanted.
But I haven't really been seeing anything like that.
I haven't really like been in the head space of it.
It's like me and Ian were always like looking
for something like that to do.
And somehow he just knows about like,
oh, this thing, this event's happening.
That event's happening.
We got to go at least film and stuff like that.
And I don't know, like I'm not as good at keeping track.
Find the rules first and bait them into breaking them.
Yeah.
And then sue.
Yeah.
If you have that much money to pour into it,
you know what I mean?
Like what if you-
Well, it's less money and more time.
Do you have time to look up the rules?
Yeah.
But what about like this whole lawsuit,
like paying to get in the lawsuit and stuff?
Yeah.
I mean, you're going to win, right?
Because you got everything documented.
Yeah.
Can't you just-
I don't really like-
You should like, oh, I'm going to win.
Well, I was going to say like,
can't you just go to one of those pro bono guys,
like one of those mega firms?
And it's like, if it's a slam dunk, they'll just do it.
The judge is still going to be like,
well, technically, even though they broke this rule
that's right here in plain English,
they were using government,
they were using government speech when they said that.
I don't know.
You see what I'm saying?
That's what I'm saying.
That's why you got to find the rules.
But if the rule is like, you're allowed to film
and there's no restriction on sitting or standing.
They will make-
And they go like, you sit, right?
And you go, yes, sir.
And then you sit.
They'll be like, yes, but on Tuesdays,
we're allowed to make up different rules,
like it says right here.
That's why you read the rules in advance.
Yeah.
Yeah, but they just make crap up that isn't even true.
Like they make it up.
Like just to not-
That's why you sue, right?
Because if it's not written down
and they didn't violate it, right?
Or if it's not written down and they've tried to-
Like those people that were XXR bands,
I'm just in absolute shock
that they've actually been upholding it so far.
They still have more appeals or whatever.
That it wasn't free speech.
It was like bullying or something like that.
I don't remember if that's what it was.
Well, we do have a caller on the line.
603-283-6160.
Is the phone number,
if you'd like to get in on the conversation with us?
Sarah in New Mexico, you're on Free Talk Live.
What's on your mind, Sarah?
I finally get to see the new box speeding cameras
in Rio Rancho.
So I saw it on TV.
It's they got rid of the fans.
So it's actually a box.
How fast are these boxes going?
No, they're cameras and then they kept the speeders.
But I think they're mobile.
I thought it was Velcro,
but it's actually they they unfolded it on the bottom
and then they could move it.
So it's actually yeah.
So it's about like maybe.
Did you learn this because you tried to remove run
and were thwarted without the proper tools?
No, I've seen it on television.
They were talking about it.
So I think the problem with the fans
is that it it sticks out.
They could hit it.
If you're going on the road,
if you're not paying attention,
it's kind of dangerous.
As it should be.
Well, it does stick on the side of the road.
So these are smaller and they're not sticking out
as much as the van.
So that's the advantage.
So they picked up.
They only had eight fans before.
Now they have 10.
So it's hard for me.
They got two more.
So, you know, I'm just happy about it,
but it looks different.
It looks like a different vendor
from what we have in Albuquerque.
So the cameras that we have are three different angles.
They're actually from Toronto, Canada.
I never knew that they had a camera vendor
from over there,
but I don't know what these vendors are,
but there's a Canadian government spy on us.
Can't trust those Canadian manufacturers.
Well, it's amazing how many different vendors there are,
and these look like they're sky blue boxes.
They must be from another company.
I mean, I don't know where they're from.
So you went out of your way to like check out these cameras,
and then are you trying to advocate for these
to be moved into Albuquerque then, or what's the...
Well, I don't know.
I think in comparison, they're just...
We just have more cameras.
That are different, but they're better than the speeding vans
when they moved out.
But I happen to like all these cameras, you know?
Not surprising.
So you drove to go see it in person?
No, it was aired on television news.
So I think it looks like it's about four feet to about five feet high,
maybe two feet by two feet wide.
Oh, closer for people to go put paper bags over and stuff.
Well, for some reason, they don't do that in that city.
That's where the Intel company set up,
and things like they enforce, don't catch you.
Santa Fe isn't that kind of stuff?
Just pass the camera where it doesn't see and then go back.
Yeah.
Was it Santa Fe you said?
No, Santa Fe, they don't have it.
This is Rio Rancho.
It's the Intel people are the one that's like...
They're like 10 miles away from Albuquerque.
That's where the Intel settled.
Intel Corporation?
Yeah, like the computer people.
Yeah.
So I don't know.
They just, they enforce, they don't act stupid.
They don't have like a big homeless population.
They don't tolerate on you that kind of...
Why don't you move there?
It's only 10 miles away.
You get all the speeding cameras you want,
no homeless people to deal with.
So they're like some of those people I thought.
Well, then again, yeah, she doesn't like to deal with them.
Like when they were on the corner of her street,
like making noise or something like that.
Or in the public park where she likes to walk.
Or you're smoking next to the bus stop.
That's actually a really good point.
They don't really have...
The problem with that place is you need a car.
And then Albuquerque has the free buses.
But yeah, kind of like the suburbs you gotta have
because they don't have much of a bus system.
So then you gotta ride the Uber.
It's not that convenient if you don't have a car.
So Albuquerque is where they tolerate a lot more homeless.
So, but it seems like more of the intelligent people
live in Santa Fe, Los Alamos, where they have them.
What was that bomb place where they...
There's a lab there in the Los Alamos.
52?
51.
Oh yeah.
No, no, that's where they developed the nuclear weapons program
in like during World War II.
And they still have a bomb.
Yeah, they still have a lab.
It's called Sandia Labs or something.
Oh, that's popping up but it does sound familiar
is Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Right, right.
So then you gotta have physics degree or whatever
to be able to work there.
So...
Oh, the Manhattan Project was there.
Yeah, like they made the nuclear bomb there.
That's where they tested like the first drop.
Oh, okay.
Okay.
And that was...
Is that White Sands?
Is that like five miles?
Yeah, White Sands is around there.
Let's see.
Los Alamos Lab directions to White Sands, New Mexico.
It looks like it's four to five hours.
Oh, okay.
Well, all around.
So by car or by horse?
And White Sands is another proving ground, I know.
But yeah, I don't know.
Probably a car.
603-2836160.
Thank you for the call, Sarah.
More free talk live coming up.
You can call in with whatever's on your mind.
Don't forget it will be your last call of the year.
603-2836160.
More free talk live coming up.
If you're looking for work,
the person you are applying to is probably
so swamped with applicants that he or she is tough to reach.
So call early in the day before 8 a.m.
Before the palace guards arrive.
You'll need your prospect's direct number.
And here's a sneaky way to get it.
Suppose the company's main number is 555-5000.
You should call 555-5012.
When someone says good morning, Pam Johnson,
you should innocently say,
oops, somebody here must have written this down wrong.
I was calling for Tom Frederick.
What's his direct number?
If the very next thing you hear isn't Pam giving you Tom's number,
it may be, good morning, Tom Frederick.

From Feature Story News in San Francisco,
I'm Ira Spitzer with a look back at some of the week's top stories.
The United States launched airstrikes against ISIS
in the north of Nigeria on Christmas Day.
U.S. President Donald Trump said they were to send a message
to insurgents in the country
who he claims are persecuting Christians.
FSN's Jagruti Dave has more from Washington.
Donald Trump has been threatening
military intervention in Nigeria for some time,
and this was the justification he gave for these strikes,
which he described as deadly in a social media post.
He said ISIS terrorist scum
have been targeting and viciously killing
primarily innocent Christians.
He added Merry Christmas to all,
including the dead terrorists,
of which there will be many more
if their slaughter of Christians continues.
U.S. Africa Command said their initial assessment
is that multiple ISIS terrorists were killed in ISIS camps.
The strikes were coordinated with the Nigerian government,
whose foreign minister said they shared intelligence with the U.S.
India and Bangladesh summoned each other's envoys
over protests outside their diplomatic missions
as already tense ties spiral.
The latest round of formal protests
come after right-wing groups staged protests
in several Indian cities
over the killing of a Hindu garment worker in Bangladesh
over allegations of blasphemy.
FSN's Kshidij Nagar has more from New Delhi.
The summoning of the Indian High Commissioner by Bangladesh
is the second such instance in as many days.
Bangladesh officials raised objections
over protests and what they describe
as a failure to curb demonstrations
and targeting its diplomatic missions.
The High Commission in Delhi remains under heavy police deployment
with security tightened and police forces deployed.
The killing of a Hindu man in northern Bangladesh
earlier in the month triggered public anger in India
and sharpened concerns over minority safety.
Indian authorities say they are closely tracking developments.
The escalation comes amid a broader political uncertainty
in Bangladesh following the ouster
of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this year.
U.S. President Trump announced a new type of battleship
set to be used by the U.S. Navy
and it is one named after himself.
FSN's Mitch McCann reports.
Standing beside the Defense Secretary and the Secretary of State,
Donald Trump announced that the U.S.
will build two new Trump-class battleships.
Mr. Trump told reporters on Monday he is calling them the Golden Fleet
and said eventually there'll be 25 of them.
Mr. Trump said the new ships will have 100 times the force
and power of any other battleship ever built.
And then there will be nothing else like them.
The President said that the U.S.
has not built a battleship since 1994
and said each one will be the largest
in the history of the world.
He said they will command respect
but added that the world already respects America.
From Bureau's Worldwide, this is FSN.

It's also the last Freetalk Live of the year.
So happy New Year in advance
and call in to get your last call of the year in
6-0-3-2-8-3-6-1-6-0.
That's 6-0-3-2-8-3-6-1-6-0.
Go ahead.
Should we get New Year's resolutions from callers too?
Oh yeah, that'd be fun.
Call them with your New Year's resolution.
I actually have one.
I'll just go ahead and start off.
My New Year's resolution is to start cooking my food at home
all the time again because I got into a horrible habit
of like going and getting restaurant food this year.
Okay.
So, and I've just been like,
I haven't been like making my cookies.
I go and buy my cookies.
Like I eat cookies every day.
Okay.
And like it's like non-negotiable.
All the time like you're not going to eat at restaurant
at all next year?
Because that seems unrealistic as well.
Exactly.
That's maybe I'll make a specific rule or something.
But it also feels like if I make a specific rule
and there's like some reason I have to break it,
I'll be all discouraged.
Yeah.
I don't really know.
I just want to stop what I do.
I mean, don't make it too restrictive on yourself.
Yeah.
But make it where you like it's measurable at least.
Yes, that's a good point.
Okay.
Like start making my food at home again
because like I've been like,
whenever Ian lived here, I cooked all the time.
I spent so many hours and hours cooking in the kitchen
all day.
And then it just like kind of went away.
Like I need to do that again.
I'm eating such crap.

Anybody else have a
a new resolution you want to share?
I have it.
I don't do them.
Yeah.
I never really have.
I don't think I don't remember.
I did them for a little while
and I like again,
I wouldn't not necessarily resolution,
but like a goal was set.
And I just for the past few years
haven't been in the right mental space
to set goals.
Like that's why I just, you know,
I go to work and I go home and play video games
and that's like, that's my life now.
I feel like I would probably
have said like very similar thing.
Like I just wasn't in the right mental space
last several years.
And this year it's like,
I'm putting myself in a bad mental space
eating going crap.
So I've been noticing it
and it's almost January.
Sounds like a good time.
Eat more pizza.
Anything else about about any just?
No, I just feel like I forget about
it'll be like three weeks later.
Everybody.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I said something about that.
And it's like because I just,
I don't know.
I felt like when I did do them,
it would be like in school.
So like,
Do you remember ever like a specific one
you ever did?
I don't lose weight or something.
I don't know.
For me, life just moves so fast.
So I just especially when I was like younger
and like I'm always doing stuff
for like your schedules changing all the time.
Like, yeah, there's no routine.
I'm not.
Why would I even like get mad at myself
for not doing something when?
Yeah.
Like, I don't even know where I'm going to be next week.
Well, I mean, it could be something as easy
as like finish a book every month, right?
Like no matter where you are,
you can find a way to read a book.
I'm starting to think I should do more than one
because right when I read the ad,
I was like, honestly, I could do
something that has to do with like
switching something to be more privacy-oriented
because like just whenever I'm around Chris Wade,
I'm like sweating.
I'm like, he's going to find out about my oral ring.
He's going to find out.
I don't have it anymore.
Don't worry about that, dude.
Just things like that.
I'm like, I'm thinking I could do
something like that.
He makes his life purposely more complicated
than it needs to be.
Maybe I could start a nostril
like some of my friends have been wanting me to do.
Yeah, that could be one.
But I'm going to create a nostril account
and I'll post at least once a week there
in addition to my Twitter.
And then another thing is
he kind of touched on it
and I forgot.
But this year I got way better.
I'm going to learn Linux.
Oh yeah, reading a book.
I think reading a book is a good idea.
I'm going to make Linux my main operating system
to figure this thing out.
I tried learning Linux right after I watched
The Matrix for the first time with Ian
and I was like, wow, I want to be hacker.
And I just tried to learn Linux
and I was like, oh, never mind.
This is really hard.
Oh, never mind.
I like what little classes.
To make you feel better in the last 25 years,
not a significant improvement.
In what?
Linux.
Oh.
And that's actually kind of proof
to that argument you guys had several months ago
about how easy it is for the engines.
Or I was like, no, I can't figure this out.
And I'm like, too dumb.
Like it was like the command line stuff.
I was like, I'm never going to memorize this.
So not, not intuitive.
I don't know if I should name drop,
but there's a former host of the show
who is an IT professional.
And I followed their telegram group.
And even they, as an IT professional,
right, are trying to get something up and running
using Linux and failing miserably
and complaining about it on their channel.
I'm like, see this dude is like,
he's not a dumb dude.
He's smart.
Right.
He's done this professionally.
And he is struggling getting Linux to do a simple thing
that anything else can do.
Right.
And even Penguin's comment last night about, you know,
oh, smartphones are so complicated.
No, they're not.
They're only complicated if you try to install
like some backwater OS Linux on there.
But if you pick up an iPhone,
this is intuitive as it gets.
And if you have a little bit of trouble,
they have a store where you can go
and a genius will walk you through it.
And it's like the simplest thing in the world.
Not a genius.
They call themselves that.
Yeah.
No, they call themselves a genius.
It's like their name for their play.
They're called a genius.
You go and talk to a genius.
I know. It sounds kind of funny
if you don't know what you mean.
No, I was just like genius.
I mean, that's just like a genius.
Either way, right?
They leave like tablets in the middle of Africa
and kids pick it up and they go like,
oh, we figured this out already.
Yeah.
We've already hacked into your network
and now we're trying to get,
you know, scammed for the Nigerian prints.
Right.
But if you put like some weird OS
on your Android phone that doesn't have
Google services, right,
you're making your life more difficult.
Yeah.
I'm necessarily.
I don't have a comment.
I just have no comment.
Of course, you got to do a show with them.
I love doing the show with Penguin.
And the thing is like when you're,
if there's like a balance to be struck,
I think, and like I appreciate people,
and not just him, but people like him
who are that serious about that kind of thing.
It's why I'm thinking like,
I could find something in my life
where I could be a little better at security
because I've been just like letting everything go recently.
But don't pretend like it's mainstream
and don't pretend like it's easier
than the mainstream stuff.
It's not.
Yeah. Never said it's easier.
Well, is it, is it,
are you doing it as a statement
or do you really think you're hiding anything?
Well, the thing is like she does.
I think that you can definitely hide stuff
if you go like,
if you just do little steps here and there.
There's a whole op sec realm.
I could start watching Naomi Brock videos
and figuring out what like something I could change
about making things more secure for me.
I don't remember the name of the company,
but there's a company out there
that the software is only available
to security professionals and like law enforcement.
And they break into like every Android phone
and they struggle breaking into
and they have not broken into like the latest Apple OS.
So if you want to be securing your device,
right, the only way to be completely securing
your device present day is with an iPhone.
Except for the fact that your iPhone
will now tell on you directly to the cop.
Only if you like,
only if you turn on all those other features, right?
If you don't turn on iCloud and you don't back
and you don't back and think up
and you have everything secure on device behind encryption,
they can't break it.
Like the encryption breaking company
that only law enforcement can use can't break it
or hasn't been able to break it yet.
But they bring out like the new Samsung
or the new like Pixel phone or whatever.
They're like, yep, cracked it.
Wow. I'd love to hear if any callers
have any opinions on this.
Seriously, like if you disagree with us,
I want to hear about it.
Like I'm very interested in that in the topic,
but I just I don't have.
I heard somewhere that iPhone has bent the knee.
Apple has bent the knee to the government
in like letting them like giving them access
recently in like the last couple years.
Right. But not on the device.
They said, well, if you would have told us,
right, we would we have it on iCloud
and we would have given you access to our servers
if you provided us with a warrant.
Right. But if your device is encrypted
and you're not backing anything up to the cloud,
right, they can't break it.
Like the back door face ID.
Can't don't use it face up to it.
Yeah, I don't use that.
So for face ID, if you want to be secure,
you have to use a pass code or pass phrase or pass word.
Right. If you have any biometrics,
what the what the courts have decided is
they can they can do anything physical.
They can compel you to press your thumb to your phone.
They can compel you to look into the phone.
They can't compel you to speak your password.
So if you're not using biometrics to open your phone.
Yeah, I don't.
Right. Then they you don't have to tell them the password.
Yeah. I don't know if people know this.
Like when you're arrested,
a cop can legally hold your phone up to your face
if you use just like the thing where it unlocks it
with your face and apparently also your thumb.
Right. And if you did that to me,
I'm like, dude, you look like an idiot
because it's not going to open.
Yeah.
Because I don't have a turn on.
Well, it's actually kind of crazy
that Dave Ridley's call was not about AI.
But I did want to talk about if you want,
if you want to read it.
That's fine. I'm prepared.
Go ahead if you got it.
I was just prepared just in case.
Okay. Awesome.
And I think it's like,
I was almost going to say something to Ridley,
but I forgot just I wanted to say,
oh man, you should have called after we read one of these.
And maybe we could talk about it.
But I don't know.
Maybe this isn't exactly a topic Ridley would care about
just because it's AI.
Like there's bunch of topics within AI.
But this one is a woman.
This is from futurism.com to reputable news source.
Woman suffers AI psychosis
after obsessively generating AI images of herself.
And it says, if only I looked like my AI version.
That's ridiculous.
Then I'd get that date.
Was she crazy beforehand?
Probably because first of all,
I laughed to myself reading that
because whenever Ian and I
would make AI pictures together
and like I wanted to do that,
I was like, can I pay $3 and make a Bonnie Barbie?
Because like it was like more locked down back
than you couldn't just go to Grock
and ask it to make images very easily.
And when you did, it's like,
you'd have to be a public figure
for it to know what you looked like.
Or you have to have an Ian.
And Ian was like, no, no, no,
don't pay the $3 and he like literally made.
What a cheap bugger.
He literally made a.
Don't pay the three bucks.
I like that about Ian.
So I'm fine with that.
So he was, he literally sat there.
I know you really want this Bonnie,
but three bucks is breaking the bank.
No, but he did it himself, so it was fine.
He like, you know,
programmed a AI picture thing
with my images, Coco's images and Ian's.
And we were able to make images of us
before like most people had access to that.
And that made me, I like that part too.
And, but the thing was,
almost all the pictures it made,
I thought were like, it looked like me,
but it was like ugly.
And I was like, Ian, do I look like that?
Like I would have never been like,
if only I looked like my AI version,
it was like creepy looking half the time.
Some of my favorite pictures are
couples caricatures.
Yeah.
Like I much prefer that to a photo
or to some AI generated thing.
Yeah, that's true.
I like caricature artists.
Oh yeah.
They do me dirt, dude.
I love it.
I love them, bro.
I'll give them the 25, 30 bucks, man.
But yeah, they do me dirt every time.
But I'd put that up on the wall
sooner than I would like an AI generated
or even a photo.
I think that's more fun,
especially if you're like,
like if you're in a place
like that has those kind of hustlers
on the street.
Yeah.
This is our caricature from France,
you know, like this is me and my wife.
I think that makes it more fun.
I would love to do that with Ian.
I don't think I just go and do it myself,
like, oh, here's a horrible picture of me
and somebody making fun of me.
Yeah, but they should see if you can book one.
Yeah, that would be funny.
Like go on visiting day when you go visit Ian,
and see if they'll allow it.
Well, they wouldn't be allowed to bring their stuff in.
Really?
Yeah, you can't bring like pens and paper.
What if you went and sat by the fence?
Yeah.
And he just came up to the fence.
I think they would get mad at us for that,
honestly, but I think I can wait another year or whatever.
Still get permission.
All right.
I think I can wait another year or whatever for this,
but as soon as Ian gets out,
he's going to shave and cut his hair though,
and then it won't be his own.
Is he?
Did he tell you that?
No, of course not.
I don't talk to Ian.
I don't know why I was thinking like,
I don't know, did I tell you so that,
but I don't think he's going to right away.
I think he should do something about his beard.
It's kind of like wild,
but I love his hair now.
Now that it's gotten past like his shoulders.
He was so clean cut,
like out in the real world.
For so long.
Right.
I can't imagine him like coming out and like,
no, this is to look now.
I don't know why he's doing it now.
I don't know if people know what we're talking about,
but Ian, the creator of Free Talk Live,
he's my husband and he's in prison,
and he just decided when he got there,
he's like, I'm not going to come here the whole time.
And I was like, why?
Protest.
Feels like it's not you.
I feel like I'm not talking to Ian.
And then like eventually I did get used to it.
And not only did I get used to it,
like once it got really long,
like recently I've been like,
Oh, it looks really nice.
It's like kind of like giving like George Harrison.
Okay.
Except it's, I looked up pictures George Harrison.
I was like, whoa,
I think Ian's hair is actually nicer and longer.
It's like really silky.
He's not, he doesn't have like many bald spots
and his hair has barely got any gray in it.
His beard does.
It's kind of like yours.
Like it's like really darker top
and then just some grand beard.
I think he's only a few months older than me.
We're very close in age contemporaries.
Well, yeah.
So this woman obsessively was generating AI images of herself
because she didn't want to look like how she actually looks.
And it says,
on top of the environmental, political,
and social toll AI has taken on the world,
it's also been linked to a severe mental health crisis
in which users are spiraling into delusions
and ending up committed to psychiatric institutions
or even dead by suicide.
I've heard lots of like about that,
not as much about being committed.
Have you?
Well, I just think that teenage girls are crazy.
No, I've mostly heard about the guys doing
like killing themselves over this stuff.
Oh, with the AI chatbots?
Yeah.
Like because I mean guys kill themselves more often.
Yeah, they do.
And it's like-
Are the girls, the ones getting institutionalized then?
Is that where it's breaking down?
I would like-
Guys are just like,
I just want to be out of this world.
Girls are like, I just put in the crazy house.
I feel like a woman would be more likely to just go crazy
because women are less likely to kill themselves in general
because for one thing, they're more scared of it.
That's why they're less likely to shoot themselves
is because a man is gonna be a little bit less scared
of that idea and a woman's just like,
no, that's a terrifying idea.
Even if I want to kill myself, I don't want it to be scary.
Like they do stuff like take pills, stuff like that.
And much rather eat mashed potatoes out of an origami spoon.
And you know, this is all stuff I've always heard.
I'm not saying like, oh, I read some study about it.
If I'm wrong, you know, correct me.
But it says take Caitlyn Nair-
Okay, take Caitlyn Nair, sorry.
Didn't realize that was her whole last name.
Take Caitlyn Nair.
Writing in an essay for Newsweek,
Nair discusses her experience as head of user
at an AI image generator startup.
A gig, she says, pulled her into the throes
of an AI-induced mental health breakdown.
Oh my God, I thought she was gonna be writing
about some of me that happened to,
but no, she's the one it happened to.
Well, I think this, this is not Caitlyn Nair's article.
Yeah, yeah, no.
The person writing it isn't Caitlyn Nair,
it's Joe Wilkins.
But he, she writes about such things
and it pulled her, you know, she writes about-
And there's a link to that Newsweek article
as well in this one.
So you could read that as well.
She's the head of user experience.
Well, that's why.
Sorry, she's not a writer.
She just burnt out from work.
She also wrote a Newsweek article.
Yep, yep, yep, exactly.
It's like-
Why does this image look like me?
Give me the programmers now.
She doesn't want it to look like her though.
I think, well, as far as like what that quote said,
I think she wants to look like it.
She wants her to look like it.
So is she, when is she typing in,
me but prettier?
Okay, prettier.
Yeah.
Prettier, okay, prettier.
Maybe, maybe because-
Bigger eyes, pout your lips.
For one thing, I seriously feel like it makes
almost everybody look a little messed up or not right.
Give it more Angelina Jolie.
Yeah.
So it says in her tell-all,
Nara says it began on the job where she spent
upward of nine hours a day prompting early
2023 era generative AI systems.
And I gotta say, right when you read me the
headline of this article, I was like,
oh my gosh, me and Ian started feeling like
we need to stop this because it was like,
it was messing with my dreams.
Like I would go to sleep and I felt like I was just
streaming a bunch of like weird images.
Like I was looking at so many weird prompts,
we were like obsessed.
Like not with ourselves, like even when we did
that thing with making it with ourselves,
it was like way more fun to make coconut
pictures.
But before that, we were obsessed because it was like,
you can tell it make a, like one I remember
doing was like making 1940s backyard
potluck party with like pies on table and
a pool in the back.
And it's, it wasn't that, but it was the
idea of that.
It was like so mind blowing that when,
like my little brother Jacob is 12,
he'll never understand that this is mind blowing.
It was mind blowing.
Does it just be normal to him?
Yeah, exactly.
All right.
It was mind blowing that a computer could just
be told what I just told you and pop up
with something that's like, whoa,
you've got like the back of people's heads,
the right outfits, like the cat eye sunglasses.
You've got like pies on a table.
It's not really there, but it's like almost there.
It's like when Photoshop put the airbrush
artists out of business.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, because there is to actually be
literal airbrush.
They have to touch it up.
They have to touch up photos, man.
That was a thing.
That was a job.
Yep.
And actually I think it's so funny because I
watch like these really older ladies
talking about like the whole gypsy rose
thing, but like that's all I do on
YouTube anymore of like listening to
gypsy rose, like gossip stuff.
She's gonna have an asylum.
And a lot of them are like older ladies
and I laugh because like if she uses
AI for something and they're like
trying to call her out for it,
some of the old ladies are like
Photoshopped.
And I'm like, that's not Photoshopped.
It's AI.
Like that even just like saying
Photoshopped is a sign you're older
person now.
When something is clearly AI and not
Photoshopped.
Isn't that like one of the Gen Z
catchphrases like that's AI for
anything that's AI?
No, that's AI.
Slop.
Oh, okay.
Oh, that's Gen Z.
I wouldn't have, I don't know.
Yeah, we call everything, everything's
AI Slopped now.
I've seen so much stuff where it's
like that's a crazy video and then
you watch it again and then you
realize that it's all fake.
Yeah, that happened to me every
once in a while.
Well, it wasn't specific to videos
though. It was and it was used in a
way to describe anything that seemed
fake.
Oh, yeah.
Well, I mean, it all seems fake now.
I get it.
But if I told you I had like, you
know, spam for breakfast where you
go, that's AI Slopped.
Like you don't believe me.
Like I'm telling you.
Oh, that's AI.
Oh, yeah, I remember that too.
Yeah, okay.
That's pretty funny.
I haven't specifically heard
somebody use it like that.
That's like saying that's a lie.
You're just saying that's AI.
That's what I'm saying.
It's like the Gen Z, Gen,
what are your alpha, whatever.
That's more of a Gen Alpha.
Okay, whatever.
Yeah.
Really? Oh, I don't know.
All I know is like,
my brother laughs at the number
six, seven and I'm like,
oh, yeah, it's that old thing.
Like what?
There's nothing funny about that.
Not to you because you're old,
let him have it.
Exactly.
There's not one funny thing
about it to me at all.
And it's like,
like we always play like
Domino's and all kinds of games
where you keep a score.
And it's like, if I get 67,
he's like, Bon, you have 67.
And I'm like, I don't get it.
And then I'm like, oh, yeah,
oh, yeah, six, seven.
And it's like, it's a bit of me of old.
I get it.
Yeah.
There are mile marker for 19.9.
Why?
Because our generation stole
all the four 20 mile markers.
Oh my gosh, really?
We stole all the speed limits,
69 markers or anytime
those numbers were there,
like they come down.
But I understand why those are funny.
Like even the explanation
that has been given to me
about six, seven is not funny.
See what I'm saying?
Because you're old.
No, I don't think it's just that I'm old.
I think that they're pretending
that it's funny.
Okay.
And I'll stand by that.
That's literally what's funnier
than 24, 25.
Exactly.
Like, but the thing is like,
there's actually a funny thing
about that in that,
like SpongeBob and Patrick
were being so ridiculous.
That's the whole point.
They're just rage-mating.
No, no, that's the thing.
SpongeBob and Patrick.
It's like, that's what I do.
You're in that joke about
it's funnier than 24, 25.
It's like, oh my gosh,
they're so ridiculous.
Nobody's laughing because they're like,
whoa, 25 is funny.
See what I'm saying?
So I do believe they're
rage-baiting people.
I don't believe they actually
think it's funny.
Like the idea of what is funny
doesn't just change
because I hit 29 years old.
You see what I'm saying?
But at the same time,
I can see that being like,
oh, it's funny to us
because we're rage-baiting you
and it's not funny to you
because you're 29.
I get that,
but I'm going to say
it's objectively not funny.
Like not subjectively,
you can actually see
what's funny about it
if you were 12.
Do you see what I'm saying?
Okay.
I ran out of breath yelling
as if I'm ranting about that.
Well, I think it's just
you're either in on it
or you're not.
That's exactly what I'm saying.
If it's like,
it's not funny,
but we're in on it
and we're rage-baiting people,
I accept that.
What I don't accept is that
no, it is funny.
Just if you were,
oh, I guess you don't get it.
So when there's no boomers around,
they don't laugh at it?
Wait, what?
So when there's no boomers around,
they don't laugh at it?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes, they do it.
Yes.
They don't.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
Yeah.
Yes.
Do the boomers have a joke
that only boomers laugh about?
I bet they do.
Hating their wife?
What do you mean?
Oh, just like-
Buying a house of a single,
single-owner seller?
Jokes about how much they hate their wives.
To the moon with you.
I gotta go home to my-
To the-
No respect.
No stupid wife.
I get no respect.
Yeah, no respect.
Okay, maybe.
Boomers hate their wives.
I could see that-
It's because they weren't allowed
to divorce them.
I just think this is a brand new thing
in that the boomers actually
think that's funny.
Like, they're like,
ha, ha, ha, get it.
Oh, you get it.
But they're not just saying it to
rage-baited Gen Z.
See what I mean?
It'd be hard to prove that
they're not laughing at six,
seven, you know,
when you're not looking.
Yeah, I guess so.
It's like the ghost
only when you're looking at them
stops when you're looking at them.
That's literally when I-
It changes down,
and then you turn around and it's like,
oh, nope.
Like, I don't think no kid is
sitting there scrolling,
and they say six, seven,
and then they go,
six, seven.
Like, to themselves.
Like, where you see six, nine,
and you go nice.
Just like in your head,
automatically.
I don't think-
I think it's more of like,
somebody says six, seven,
like, in a setting.
But a group of them.
Like, as a teacher.
And then, yeah.
So the kid can go six, seven,
and then everybody freaks out,
that's the fun of it,
is the freak out of the group
at the six, seven.
Yeah, exactly.
I think that that is-
Chicken jockey.
Exactly what it is.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know what that means.
Because you're old.
No, what's it from?
From the Minecraft movie.
Oh, it's also a-
Okay.
All right.
They were literally-
Like, they went to the extreme
of tearing apart theaters
and throwing literal chicken
at the screen
when that scene came up.
I just had to think about it.
Minecraft is definitely not
Gen Alpha.
Minecraft is a-
Yes, it is.
It's transcendental.
No, it could be both,
but it's not only a Gen Alpha thing.
Like, it's definitely more Gen Z.
Do you know about the chicken and jockey thing?
The trend-
I remember that there were people
like throwing stuff in theaters.
But I didn't know about like chicken and jockey.
I don't think I ever heard that before.
Well, that's when at that point
in the movie when Jack Black screams
chicken jockey,
the entire place would freak out
and scream chicken jockey.
No, I get all this now.
And throw the popcorn.
All I'm saying is that-
Or chickens.
They start to bring in chickens.
That's not a Gen Alpha thing.
Can't be it, because-
I don't think boomers were throwing
chickens at the fan.
But Minecraft was definitely
biggest for like Gen Z.
Okay.

The idea that politicians are leaders
check your premises on that one.
Cutting proof.
Really?
Would you really follow
Barack Obama or George Bush?
Would you really follow their every
command?
Would you follow their suggestions?
Do you believe that politicians
are somehow more knowledgeable
than you are?
That politicians are of a special
group of people?
They're a special little critter
that for some reason is more
enlightened or educated?
Constantly you can hear talking
heads refer to the authorities.
Or our leaders in Washington.
And it's just patently absurd.
I mean, these people are failures at
life. That's why they became
politicians.
Right. I mean, you know,
there's so many of them are
attorneys.
The good attorneys make a whole
bunch of money and retire with
yachts.
The unsuccessful ones go into politics.

Hour number three is next after the

Network at lrn.fm.
From Feature Story News in San
Francisco, I'm Ira Spitzer with
a look back at some of the week's
top stories.
The United States launched air strikes
against ISIS in the north of
Nigeria on Christmas Day.
U.S. President Donald Trump said
they were to send a message to
insurgents in the country
who he claims are persecuting
Christians.
FSN's Jagruti Dave has more
from Washington.
Donald Trump has been threatening
military intervention in Nigeria
for some time
and this was the justification
he gave for these strikes
which he described as deadly
in a social media post.
He said ISIS terrorist scum
have been targeting
and viciously killing
primarily innocent Christians.
He added merry Christmas to all
including the dead terrorists
of which there will be many
if their slaughter of Christians continues.
U.S. Africa Command said
their initial assessment
is that multiple ISIS terrorists
were killed in ISIS camps.
The strikes were coordinated
with the Nigerian government
whose foreign minister said
they shared intelligence with the U.S.
India and Bangladesh summoned
each other's envoys over protests
outside their diplomatic missions
as already tense ties spiral.
The latest round of formal protests
come after right-wing groups
staged protests
in several Indian cities
over the killing of a Hindu garment
worker in Bangladesh
over allegations of blasphemy.
FSN's Kshidej Nagar
has more from New Delhi.
The summoning of the Indian High Commissioner
by Bangladesh
is the second such instance
in as many days.
Bangladeshi officials
raised objections
over protests
and what they described
as a failure to curb demonstrations
and targeting its diplomatic missions.
The High Commission in Delhi remains
under heavy police deployment
with security tightened
and police forces deployed.
The killing of a Hindu man
in northern Bangladesh earlier in the month
triggered public anger in India
and sharpened concerns
over minority safety.
Indian authorities say
they are closely tracking developments.
The escalation comes
amid broader political uncertainty
in Bangladesh
following the ouster
of former Prime Minister
Sheikh Hasina earlier this year.
U.S. President Trump announced
a new type of battleship
set to be used by the U.S. Navy
and it is one named after himself.
FSN's Mitch McCann reports.
Standing beside the Defense Secretary
and the Secretary of State
Donald Trump announced
that the U.S. will build
two new Trump class battleships.
Mr. Trump told reporters on Monday
he is calling them the Golden Fleet
and said eventually
there'll be 25 of them.
Mr. Trump said the new ships
will have 100 times the force
and power of any other battleship
ever built
and in there will be nothing else like them.
The President said that the U.S.
has not built a battleship since 1994
and said each one will be the largest
in the history of the world.
He said they will command respect
but added that the world
already respects America.
Mitch McCann, New York.
From Bureau's Worldwide
this is FSN.
The U.S. confirmed it carried out
a strike on an alleged
drug smuggling boat
killing one person
along with the seizure of another
Venezuelan oil tanker
over the weekend.
It continues the pressure campaign
against Venezuela's
President Nicolás Maduro.
FSN's Nick Harper reports from Washington.
The U.S. military confirming
that it had killed
what it called one
Narco Terrorist.
It released footage of that strike
with the U.S. Southern Command
confirming on X
that it had carried out the attack
upon the direction
of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
It said the boat had been transiting
along known Narco Trafficking routes.
But all of this as Venezuela has called
for an urgent meeting
at the U.N. Security Council
to push back on what it's called
the aggression of the United States.
China and Russia both coming out
with strong support for Caracas.
With China saying that the U.S.
was in serious violation
of international law
with its continued actions
against Venezuela,
its oil tankers
and alleged drug smuggling boats.
I'm Nick Harper in Washington.
A car bomb killed a top military official
in Moscow.
FSN's Daria Bondarchuk reports
from the Russian capital.
A car bomb exploded in southern Moscow
on Monday
killing General Fanil Sarvarov.
He headed the operational training
directorate
of the Russian Army's
General Staff.
The top military official
was blown up in the parking lot
of his apartment building,
reportedly minutes after he sat
in his car
and traveled just a few meters.
He became the third person
of his rank
to be killed in car bombing incidents
over the past 12 months.
Russia's investigative committee says
Lieutenant General Sarvarov
was killed in explosion
possibly orchestrated
by Ukrainian intelligence services.
Daria Bondarchuk, Moscow.
That was a look
at some of the week's top stories.
Iris Spitzer reporting.
Coming up a little later
the 10 best careers
for someone
at your level of attractiveness.
Over right now,
we have something truly incredible for you.
Kenneth Quinn is a real life psychic medium
who claims that he can communicate
with dead acquaintances.
He's written a new book.
It's called Small Talk from Beyond
Speaking with Distant Relatives
and Friends of Friends
Who Have Passed.
Hi, Kenneth.
Good to see you.
Thank you.
Now, Kenneth, you've written
that you're able to connect people
with the spirits
of their old college professors
or roommates
that they didn't really know that well.
When did you realize
that you had this gift?
Well, it was the day after
my cousin's friend's wife's funeral.
I was at home
and I suddenly felt a presence
in the room with me
and I heard a voice say it's Vicki.
Vicki Solcek, Dale's wife.
Wow.
We made a Tim's birthday thing
a while back
and we talked about how hard it is
having a cat.
Fascinating.
This has been so amazing.
This has been fabulous.
Thank you, Kenneth Quinn,
for being our guest.

we've got me, Bonnie.
Angelo.
And Rich Rich.
And I did want to get into
what made this lady crazy with AI.
Like did she actually get
committed?
I'm interested in that too.
This article from futurism.com
this woman whose name is Nair
like it's her last name
but it's Katelyn Nair.
Wrote an essay for Newsweek
but she is actually the head
of user experience
at an AI image generator startup.
She said it pulled her into the throws
of an AI-induced mental health breakdown.
And you know Ian is always asking me things
he'll be like ask Jacob
if he like prefers AI to human contact
just stuff like that.
He's concerned?
And Jacob is like
this is what he's asked him
and in fact actually that's
not always on the phone
sometimes we go visit him
and Ian will be like
so Jacob if one of your friends
was to tell you
they're dating an AI chatbot
what would you say?
And yes in a concerned tone.
Okay.
And Jake will be like
I tell them they're a loser
and I'm like oh okay good
like stuff like that.
Well I mean I don't have one
but at the same time
I don't text a lot of people
and I know it's difficult
to get a response from family.
Yeah.
Right like I got a question for you
and we don't talk for like months
but I got
and I don't get a response back.
Yeah.
Right or I could go to an AI
and get a quick response to anything
I ask whenever I want
and however they want to phrase it.
Right.
So it's more responsive than real people
I would imagine.
Yeah it's instantly responsive.
I don't know how quick people
respond to you guys when you text them.
I don't know if that's the same though
because it's like
I would wait a little while
for a real human contact
as as opposed to like
oh chatbot that's just gonna
kiss my butt and stuff.
Well that's it
well waiting a little while
and or like not getting a response at all
right like even even my son
right I don't text them a lot
but sometimes I'll just
I'll have a general question
like hey can you get your
like I asked him
like hey can you get your mom's recipe
for like shrimpling Guini
and he's like yeah sure no problem
and like three weeks go by
I'm like hey any luck on that recipe
like totally forgot about it
you know like all right
well good chat
like that is so typical family though
like I always
but if I ask an AI chatbot
for shrimpling Guini recipe
I'll get it instantly.
Yeah but if you're asking your AI chatbot
to indulge in your sexual fantasies
you're on a whole different ball
you're dating this AI chatbot
that's gonna be more responsive
than trying to sex the random chick
that I'm trying to hook up with
off a dating app anyway
maybe I'm off the dating app
a 13 year old boy that's dangerous
okay you got to learn how to
actually interact with other people
like that you're right at that age
where you're supposed to be learning
how to how to handle yourself
and if you just forego learning
how to interact with another individual
for the chatbot
you're never going to develop
those skills to begin with
and then you then you are really stuck
now I think they'll figure it out
because if the boys are doing it
the girls are doing it too
and they'll both be equally inept
and awkward in social situations
but human history figures out a way to
you know put one into two
I guess that is true
like I'm sure they were people
I guess it's true that mostly people
are gonna figure it out
and be all right in the end but
wait till they get to college
they'll put the chatbot down
they'll go to a party
they'll figure it out
I'm sure that like in the early 2000s
people are like no
kids are on these websites
they're gonna be socially inept
you see what I mean
and before that it was the magazines
and before that it was whatever it was
these magazines
the photos
that's true
but I mean have people have
penthouse letters it was just words
to get off on words
social have there has like
manners deteriorated over time
or I guess like
I feel like people don't know
how to behave in public right now
and that's kind of like part of the issue
that's true
did you know how to behave in public
part of that
like as a teenager though
I mean I
did you actually like follow through
no but I you had you had to feel your
way out
okay
you were able to
that's part of being a teenager
do you know how to like set your table
properly
when you're about to like serve dinner
you know which side
I mean good enough
fork and
but do you do it
no
isn't it more about how to conduct
yourself than like
I'm just saying
that's what I mean like
that's what we're talking about
not being a
I guess I'm at manners too
literally like that
you're taking it as like table etiquette
I'm saying like
I'm how you
how you like act in public to where
you're not like
yeah
old people used to wear old people
used to wear a suit out and shave
every day
right and then like clothing deteriorated
hygiene deteriorated
it's a complete
it's a total
that answers this question though
I think because he's saying like well
even though we're saying like
oh people always have freaked out
and then people have been okay well
to his point are people okay
things have deteriorated a bit
you don't have to wear a suit out anymore
it's like it's
you don't have I don't want to
have to put on your Sunday best
to go to church
like my grandma did
tell me about how when she was
start first started working at
this like office job she has
not sure exactly how to describe it
really quickly
she always had to wear like tights
and heels and a skirt
and when they just like
got rid of that thing
she was so happy and I was like
yeah
that would really suck
honestly not not because I'm like oh
sexism and that's not what her
problem was either it's just like
irritatingly uncomfortable
just for the to be in the office
but did a suit did a suit really
affect how you
spoke to another individual
like is if you're just if you're
just skipping out on learning
how to talk to another person
for a computer
then you're not going to know
how to talk to a person
yeah and I'm saying they'll
figure it out and another example
for you Bonnie like my dad was a
manager for an office for most of
his career
right and I remember as a kid
right he was very anti-tattoo
and very anti-male piercings
of any kind
it was like if I see a guy come in
here with like tattoo and piercings
he's just not getting the job
like I'm not hiring they don't care
how good he is
I don't want that look in my office
right and then being a manager for
20 years
right 20 years later
you can't hire anybody if they
don't have a tattoo and piercing
because that's the only people that
walk in in the office
so he's like I have to now
I have to like break my value
system
in order to staff this office
there's nothing I can do about it
right but like that was that was
the etiquette of like his day
versus the modern times
and you just got to get away with
you got to go away from it
and so like oh these these these
gen alphabetas whatever
right they don't know how to talk to
people well yeah
but they'll figure it out when it's
necessary
or you'll be gone and they'll do
whatever it is they do
when is that like the world is for
the young
I don't know they'll figure it out
and you'll have to adapt
because they'll have the technology
that makes sense to them
and you'll be caught up like
old people are now trying to
figure out how to use Linux
I don't know if you guys are
the right people like hosts to
I feel like Riley would figure it out
Ian would figure it out but
I'm trying to think of the name
of like one of Terrence McKenna's
friends or like associates
and it started with an A I think
and he would do like
he talked about psychedelics
in the 90s and stuff in 80s
and he had that like a little show
and I watched a little show of his
and I can't remember what it's
called or anything I was trying
to look at my YouTube search
or like history
and I can't remember
and he did this show
that was really interesting to me
because it was all about like
what's in a suit
and he talked about where
how the English businessman
man popularized the suit
all over the world
and actually took over
even in Japan
they used to have something else
and what did they have
it was like a kimono
kimonos yeah
in other things like it
like slight variations
and it was like
absolutely respect
it was like the
what do you need a suit
to be like respectable
and stuff like this
what the kimono was
perfect that's why criminals
and gangsters in the 30s
were wearing suits
because they wanted to look normal
it's why black folks had
the zutsuit right
because they were like the
like oh yeah look that up
I've heard that
but I don't know what it is
zutsuits are cool
yeah with the super wide
shoulders
yeah baggy pants
right there's like
their little flair
their little flair on
like being
being respectable in public
nice right
they'd call each other
man because they were
tired of white people
calling them boy
right so they like
they have their own
little thing on there
I've got like a
bright yellow pinstripes
zutsuits of may
pictures of it somewhere
well uh what
one of the points
that guy made
about the suit was like
he was saying we should
we should like
instead of going
and using the suits
we we should
instead
we should popularize
the Japanese kimono
I don't know if kimono
is the name of the man's one
okay it could be
I could be wrong
but um he was saying
because it's like
it's like totally
respectable and everything
but it's just that
it's comfort
and he like
really broke this up
in a way I was like
wow I didn't think
he was gonna get this much
out of just like
analyzing like
the idea of a suit
and it was like
today's society
people think it's like
somehow
you're gonna get more done
you're gonna be more
respectable just because
you're simply because
you're uncomfortable
yeah unbifurcated pants
really suits the male
anatomy better
than standard pants
what's unbifurcated
like well there's no
they're like a kilt
or kimono
or uh
lava lava
if you're Polynesian
right or whatever
it doesn't there's
there's nothing like
riding up against
your dangly bits
yeah whereas females
don't have dangly bits
like the afghan
people wear
it's just like a
I don't know what they call it
yeah same thing
same thing though
right there's nothing
riding up your dangly bits
like pants are for girls
because they don't have
anything that are there to like
that's kind of a good point
it's like
it's backwards
and it's always been
backwards yeah
because they popularized
the suit instead of the
kimono
yeah I can't find it
I searched kimono in there
don't worry about it
yeah just
call in if you know
the like the male terminology
for the
Japanese formal wear
oh it says the male
version of a kimono
is called a kimono
so I was wrong
about whatever I was saying
there
I feel like there's multiple
ones he brought up
but also he brought up
like the Indian version of it
the
I think Thai version of it
they're all like
slightly different
but really
like they're also
actually really awesome
it's a lot more comfortable
but the problem is
like you're
you're gonna be like
hey let's try to popularize
this thing
but
most people aren't gonna
go out and wear
something unless it's
already normalized
could you just argue
for the toga
at that point
he brought up the toga
and said it's just
not superior to the kimono
he had like reasons
I don't remember
why no
but yeah
but the thing is
if you it hasn't already
been normalized
most people
aren't just gonna be like
you know what
I like the kimono
I'm gonna wear
even no one else likes it
you see what I mean
like you're still gonna
be seen as
weird
yeah you're still a weeb
and then somebody's gonna
be like
just do it
it's more comfortable
you're that
yeah if you like it
I mean go for it
or somebody's gonna
also say like
oh well you can't wear
that because you're not
Japanese
that's pretty ridiculous
the only reason you
haven't seen me in a
kilter in a long time
is because I got fat
I don't fit all my kilts
anymore
and I don't want to buy
more kilts for fat rich
they seem expensive
they are
that's why
and I've got enough
for slim rich
it's like 200 yards
of fabric
or something
right
can't I
I don't buy that
200 yards
but like
it's a crazy amount
of fabric
that they fold
into those
right
so the
the great kilts
like the
like top end ones
are eight yards
eight yards
so that's
like 20 feet of fabric
not 24
24
as long as
we're gonna
do the math
yeah
I was just guessing
I was ballparking
okay
and then
and then they've got
like the five yard
you know smaller kilts
and I buy the cheap ones
that you just wrap around
once and it's already
like sewn and pleated for you
and I don't have to go
through the rigmarole
well yeah
but how long would that be
if it was already
like sewn into place
if you undid the stitching
is it still like
no it's not gonna be
it's not gonna be
eight yards
okay
the eight yard one
is the one like
you wrap
you throw over your shoulder
and I think Mark
Mark might have a great kilt
I've seen him
but he still wears
his kilts
to like Liberty 4 and stuff
yeah but he
he doesn't wear the
great kilts though
but I think he has
a great kilt
oh
isn't that like
one that you can all
you can make it
into pants
if you need to
you can like
wrap it up like
well yeah
because you got
because you got eight yards
of material
yeah
this says from
large man's kilts
you'll typically need
six to eight yards
of double width fabric
around 54 to 60 inches wide
I thought 200
sounded pretty crazy
so like five feet tall
and eight feet long
but still it is
like
yeah you gotta fold it
yeah yeah
and that's yards
you know like
and that's you know
yeah
three feet is a yard
yeah we did the math
well
either way
you weren't with us
for that part of the show
yeah I was googling it
I was googling
large men's kilts
how many yards of fabric
I thought 200
sounded pretty crazy
but at the same time
it is
that would take forever
that's two football fields
if you're like
talking about the
doubling
maybe I mean then
it's like you know
yeah that was me just
not knowing what
I was talking about
to you that's my bad
I'm sorry
you'll clothe an army
with 200 yards of
Highland wool kilts
well that's pretty funny
well um
that had
but either way
they're more comfortable
like bottom line
they're more comfortable
to wear
they're easier to wear
right I don't know
your carry situation
might vary
like I haven't figured that
all out
the point is like
at that point
you just got a
rocket like a
leather fanny pack
at the front of it
the spore on
you already do
it's part of the gear
oh well then
why don't you just
carry in that
I don't
just got a pack
that's the
that's the little
letter the thing
that hangs in the front
oh like a pocket
yeah
oh yeah
one pocket
I mean that's what my grandma
carried
that's what she used
she just had a fanny pack
that had her wallet
and her gun in it
and that's what's
how she carried
apparently like
back in the day
like all clothing
didn't have
it didn't have
pockets
you just had these
like
detached pockets
and you'd tie that
around your waist
like as a woman
I guess
yeah
and then you had
your pocket
but it's like a bag
but like
concealing
concealing your holster
is a little bit
more challenging
when you've got one
pocket to fit everything
phone wallet
could you just wear
like a side pocket
like side leather
like add
like a leather
there's plenty of ways
to do this
yeah don't you
can't you just
add pockets at that
sure
but then
but now you're not
now you're open carrying
well not if you like
you get a side pocket
for like your phone
or your keys
okay
put your
or you can put your
keys on a chain
okay
that connects like
you know
I got you
at some point
you know you can
make it work
I've got a
I've got a belt gun
with a whole bunch of
like molly pockets
on there
because I'm trying to
figure this out
so
oh yeah
that might be tough to
have you looked at the
I don't know how
the kill rides
the kill rides up here
but you need
um
suspenders
right no
do you wear suspenders
with not with
kill no
oh well I was saying
I thought your problem
was less about writing
up I thought
it was like
you're talking about it
falling down
no no no
like from that
no you wear a
you don't have space
you wear a belt
yeah
but you know
if you if you wear
the belt
and then
and if you got
like an inside the
waistband holster
right your holsters
like up by your ribs
instead of down by your hip
that makes sense
yeah
and that's if you want
to conceal it
I dropped my gun recently
have you seen those neoprene
carry
like the belly bands
yeah yeah
I don't know that's
that's probably the way
that's still going to be
like up at your nipples though
because the kilts can
still be above the belly
well but if you can just
I guess yeah
if you want to
you're gonna flash everybody
when you're like
yeah you'd have to go
from the bottom up
I know
that's what I'm saying
huh
this is a survival situation
but you're just
starting
splashing everyone
okay
it's still kind of open
Karen that is
still kind of open
the kill only goes down
thigh carry
thigh yeah
garter
yeah you still got to look at that
drop holster
the kilt could be
you could get a baggy enough one
for like a drop
holster
no because
drop holster
like wraps around your leg
have you tried that
like a
thigh one
with a kilt
yeah I have
again I've got the drop leg
but the drop leg
does the drop leg
attaches on the
exterior of the belt
so you'd have to figure
out a way to rig it
so it drops
on the interior of the belt
through the kilt
and then still wrap
around your leg
down the bottom
and then your draw
would still have to be
lift the kilt with one hand
so you can
with your off hand
so you can successfully
pull the gun
out of the holster
with your
with your carry in
and if you're freeballing
and just splashing everyone
I made sense that
people just wore swords
and nice
okay way easier back then
sure again
open carries less of a problem
that's what I'm saying
like they didn't have this
problem because they didn't have
guns
as much when they wore kilt
yeah I guess that makes sense
kilt weren't built
with guns in mind
right
yeah pistols especially
but they ought be
yeah if you're gonna sling
a rifle over your shoulder
forget about it
my main point for bringing up the
the kimono and stuff is just like
I guess it's true like
let's just stick to Japan
so we're not like
talking about cultural relativism
in Japan
a 200 year old person
who just comes back to life
or whatever
would be judging the Japanese
for their
business suits
see I'm saying like
wow this is just
crazy you guys are wearing
this instead of kimonos
how did you let the west
dominate our culture
that's a good point
maybe they would think
say that
it was an old movement
and it might still be like
a generational thing
but there were
there was some interest
in the younger generations
returning to that
and rejecting like
western attire
right they were
they were reverting back
to their more traditional
Japanese attire
you know
and and rejecting the western
values and
in favor of something more
traditional
so again
it sucks for English people
because then they just
have to wear suits
they invented it
yeah suck
yeah they're stuck with it
they also invented it
you want it
right up against your
yeah I guess you can wear it
if you want to
I wonder if I like
the English had their own
kind of kilt
because I was about to say
they even did that too
but then I was like
wait no that was Scottish
so
Scottish Irish
so there's some left
pants used to be huge
I'm thinking like
like in Italy
you think like
renaissance style pants
they were super like
poofy
and then you had like
so much room inside of them
like big billowy things
yeah right
so like you
they were still pants
but you still had like room
and you forever
you can blame the rising
cost of fabric
right for the narrow
pants you got now
because that was part of it
like the reason pants
used to come up like
you know to your nipples
was because that's the way it
was and like
you know if we just cut
off the fabric
and make people wear it
at the waist
we'd save a whole bunch
of money on fabric
and so they did
wow it says
while the kilt is famously
Scottish
it's a modern form
was actually developed
by an English
iron master
Thomas Rawlinson
all right
and it was
he was simplified
the great kilt
oh I didn't know
great kilt was like
the like a term
you're using
I thought you're just saying
I think Mark has a great kilt
no he has
I think Mark legitimately
has a great kilt
oh and that's just
like a bigger form
or something
yeah that's like the
the the eight yard
thick wool
like you can convert it
to whatever you want
throw it over your shoulder
but it does say England
didn't have a native
kilt tradition
that's basically more
what is this
so they just
wore suits the whole time
what are they
I wonder what medieval
English people
or canvas bags
burlap sacks
burlap sack pants
I don't know for
they're corn
these peasants
no they just had the
high water pants
right
that went out like
everyone else in Europe
they could kind of think of
it just says
they generally wore
trousers
knickerbockers
breeches
waistcoats
coat shirts and stuff
at the same time
that's kind of crazy to
think of
like it's kind of
crazy to think of like
well because they invaded
the entire world
and took fashion with them
and brought no spices
back home
that tastes good
they're they're
neighboring people
like the right at the
same time
like the Scottish ring
kilts
the Englishman
wearing trousers
breeches
waistcoats
and it's just interesting
to think of
I just never thought of it
till now
that's why they're so
uptight
Scottish and Irish people
are so laid back
that does actually
sound more comfortable
all the time
that sounds literally
right
I did
I've been watching
these things
they've just been like
YouTube been just
showing it to me
in a lot of
it short form
tipsy rose
no not that
not that
that exact time
it's like people who
like put on
really old clothing
and talk about them
and like
during the breeches
waistcoats
era type stuff
like
even babies
wore so many different
layers of stuff
but they always like
to point out like
oh these all have
like a really specific
purpose
like
like if a baby
was going out to play
they put a whole other
outfit on top of them
that was kind of
like this
like huge
man it had a name
and I forgot
a petty
not a petty coat
but a
like it was just to keep
them from getting
their normal clothes dirty
yeah
but that's how they
weren't doing laundry
once a week
or a couple of days
that's that's probably why
and they were doing it
by hand
yeah yeah
um
yeah I'm not washing
that again
yeah or you get like
one pair of shoes
or like two pairs of shoes
you have like
your saddle shoes
and then your
yeah
then your sneakers
kind of four
that's what it was called
the thing that they would
wear outside of their
clothes yeah
but then they had
you know like
this holds up this
and it seems like
you'd take like
18 years
getting dressed
that's why they'll
woke up at 5 a.m
to get to their
9 o'clock job
after they had
already woke up
six hours earlier
is that to go by
horse
yeah or five
hours earlier
I don't know
I'm gonna string
that one out
another half an hour or so
maybe they woke up
in the middle of the day
to just
their middle of the night
to just
start getting dressed
like you know
how they got
would make up
wake up in the middle
of the night
he claims
it's the best way to sleep
to wake up in the middle
of the night
no no my great grandma
just pitter patters
she gets up
oh okay
she wakes up at like
4 30
33 34 30 in the morning
she pitter patterns around
does a couple things
drink some water
check on the fire
or whatever
look around the house
and then goes back to bed
for another couple hours
and then wakes up
for the day
did she always do that
or did she
she grew up on a farm
so it was kind of like
you got to wake up
and put more logs
on your stove
right
you grow up with like
what he eat
yeah
so like pitter pattering
is just the way
people did it forever
because you had to
stay warm
during the winter
I gotta be at work
at 9 a.m.
if I'm like up from
three to five
my day is ruined
yeah yeah
but if
but if you wake up
at 3 a.m.
because it's
cold in your house
yeah you're gonna put
you gotta wake up
because you gotta
no I get up
I get up to like
pee and do all that
kind of stuff
yeah a little pitter patter
but I don't pitter patter
I don't even open my eyes
if I can feel my way to the bathroom
sometimes I'm not trying to wake up
sometimes if I'm like
I cannot go back to sleeping
this is annoying
I'll go drink milk
and milk really helps
you fall asleep
it's not just like a
oh a silly little myth
I I felt like
like I was shocked last year

victimless crime spree
from feature story news
in san francisco
i'm ira spitzer
with a look back
at some of the week's top stories
the united states
launched air strikes
against isis
in the north of nigeria
on christmas day
us president
donald trump said
they were to send
a message to insurgents
in the country
who he claims
are persecuting christians
fsn's jagruti davai
has more from washington
donald trump has been
threatening military
intervention in nigeria
for some time
and this was the
justification he gave
for these strikes
which he described
as deadly in a social
media post
he said isis terrorists
scum have been targeting
and viciously killing
primarily innocent christians
he added merry christmas
to all including
the dead terrorists
of which there will be
many more
if their slaughter
of christians continues
us africa command
said their initial assessment
is that multiple isis
terrorists were killed
in isis camps
the strikes were coordinated
with the nigerian government
whose foreign minister
said they shared intelligence
with the us
india in bangladesh
summoned each other's envoys
over protests
outside their diplomatic missions
as already tense ties spiral
the latest round of formal protests
come after right wing groups
staged protests
in several indian cities
over the killing of a
hindu garment worker
in bangladesh
over allegations of blasphemy
fsn's kshitij nagar
has more from new deli
the summoning of the
indian high commissioner
about bangladesh
is the second such instance
in as many days
bangladesh officials
raised objections
over protests
and what they describe
as a failure to curb demonstrations
and targeting its diplomatic missions
the high commission
in deli remains
under heavy police deployment
with security tightened
and police forces deployed
the killing of a hindu man
in northern bangladesh
earlier in the month
triggered public anger in india
and sharpened concerns
over minority safety
indian authorities say
they are closely tracking developments
the escalation comes
amid a broader political uncertainty
in bangladesh
following the ouster
of former prime minister
sheikh hasena
earlier this year
standing beside the defense secretary
and the secretary of state
donald trump announced
that the us will build
two new trump class battleships
mr trump told reporters on monday
he is calling them the golden fleet
and said eventually
there'll be 25 of them
mr trump said the new ships
will have 100 times the force
and power of any other battleship
ever built
and then there will be nothing else
like them
the president said
that the us has not built a battleship
since 1994
and said each one will be the largest
in the history of the world
he said they will command respect
but added that the world
already respects america
from bureaus worldwide

so charlie kirk fans are snapping selfies
in replica death tent
but i'd have to even heard of this
replica death tent
no so i guess i guess erica kirk
or i guess since i can say that
because she's the head of tpusa right
so
she ran amp fest
they put up a tent
at america fest
that is a replica of the tent
that charlie kirk
was assassinated in
for fans to go take photos in
whoa
is she a little too exuberant for
grieving widow
because there seems to be
dude i don't i'm not gonna
disparage anybody
no okay
i think everyone processes
differently
i hate being told that because like
from the first day she came out
and there was like
that video with like a
podium and she was saying
this widow's cries
will be heard around the world
i was like
oh this isn't right at all
this is weird
and the thing is like
i'm the only married woman
on the panel tonight
i'm telling you
my husband
is not the father of my two
babies
i don't have any
i'm sitting here
hers was
hold on
because hers was
why aren't you telling us
bonnie
i don't have any kids
but
that we do love
i love my husband so much
that if he was killed in front
of me
there would be no
three days later
i'm in full glam hair
and makeup
giving a speech
where i can make
those type of sentences
and like
what if three days later
was pork fest
and you were given the main
stage
i wouldn't be that
in that it wouldn't be
that
that way of speaking
i wouldn't i wouldn't go
full glam hair
and makeup
and okay
act like it's like
okay it's like my close-up
but it's like seriously
it's my behavior
you forgive the murderer
but then you would
freak out on the people
who think that the
fbis lying to us
but the fbis like
see that's the thing
like lying about everything
i feel like that's even
a secondary issue
you know what i mean
as far as like
oh and and then she
starts seeming like a
um
and forgiveness is
very christian of her
yeah
but it's
it's like she selectively
being forgiving
and it's also just like
i do not believe her
that she forgives the
shooter
if she really believes
that that person shot
charlie kerrk
i don't believe it's
humanly possible
to genuinely
forgive the person
who shot your husband
in front of you
if you actually loved him
and he's father of your
kids and stuff
see what i'm saying
like it's like
yeah i believe
you are able to
say those words
not that you actually
can possibly believe them
like
forgive them
like like
you don't go to sleep
at night
like angry at all
like that
that's what's required
it's like
im was like
how do you know
she doesn't forgive him
it's like
because all you have
all she can do
is like say
or she can say
those words
that doesn't mean that
she gives him
no blame
when she starts getting upset
like oh my god
why does this have to happen
and she starts
start spiraling
and this is just
if this woman's real
in any way
is to shape her form
you know what i mean
i mean she could be
real backstage
right
like maybe she cries
her eyes out
backstage
before and after
but then puts on
the performance
it'd be impossible
to keep the thing going
it would still be weird
okay people
car park
ventralize man
well let's talk about this
tent
the photo op
that they have right now
sorry let's go back
to the article
you're right
yes okay
but like just think about it
this way
as if jackie kennedy
would have put something on
and then had a car
that was the same car
that they
that her husband
had his head blown off
and it comes in pictures
in a replica of the car
people go to the
auschwitz museum
yeah but like was it
one of the victims
they are
one of the victims
the german like
german tenders
all bunch of like
chicks in front
of the auschwitz museum
yeah but it wouldn't be
like a victim
of the auschwitz
going
going and being like
hey i i made my own
photo op area
i just think that's weird
all right but then again
this is the first i've
heard of this
like i didn't know
what you meant
by the replica
death tent
so i want to get
into this a little bit
see what other people
are saying it says
charlie kerke fans
are snapping selfies
in replica death tent
attendees at america
fest
the conference held
by the late charlie kerke's
turning point usa
have the opportunity
to honor kerke's memory
by taking selfies
in a replica of the tent
where he was shot dead
is just to honor him
where's the mannequin
of charlie kerke himself
that's crazy
it's coming
oh my god
posed with charlie
she just found out
that people will pay extra
for that
so it's coming
exactly
disney they got disney
working on
one of their
it's gonna be some
black chick
imagination
playing charlie kerke
oh imaginators
one of those
no i mean like
the robots
oh okay
you know like
they did with
lincoln
okay
that's what it will be
charlie kerke
at america fest
yeah they have all the
presidents like that
and now you can do
an ai voice
and you can just have
charlie say whatever
you want him to say
wow
with his
imagined
body
back into the left
oh my god
i don't think he was saying that
i'm just
the conference
he's probably thinking it
back into the left
oh my god
i don't think he was
thinking anything
i feel like it was like
that it was bleeding
so much
it's just like
it was just lights out
lights out
yeah
that's what i think
in shock
and then lights up
yeah
probably didn't really
feel a lot of pain
with how quickly the lights
went out
yeah
that's a good point
that's one good thing
about it
it's a humane kill
yeah at least
at least they made it fast
i just like
i still do think
there are fake things
about it
i i got a lot of
heat on twitter
because i like
believe this person
that else with an
angelo
sent me their claims
that ended up being
like totally debunkable
but it wasn't that obvious
it was like
well i'm totally convinced
that like
this is why there is proof
that
Charlie Kirk was shot from back
and then i found like
why it's not true
or why that person was wrong
and i don't even necessarily
think that person was lying
but people are like
how dare you
jump to a conclusion
i was like
wow am i supposed to be
like an expert on this
before posting it to
my twitter
you know what i mean
yeah i mean the
the easiest thing is
there was the lack
the lack of two holes
before they
incinerated the body
and the claim that
his neck bone
stopped the rifle round
yeah that's crazy
and the fact that there was
no splatter behind him
on this pure white thing
the thing that throws it off
for me completely
is that in
in the indictment
they say that
the father
recognized the picture
of the rifle
that was posted
but there was no picture
of the rifle posted
the picture that the
new york post used
was a stock image
the picture that was
floating around
so like there was never
like an official
rifle photo released
but the dad said
he recognized it
in the picture
but all black rifles
looked the same
i don't even think it was
but that just goes
towards whether or not
that guy was the shooter
you know what i mean
like that doesn't tell me
whether or not he was
shot by someone
and killed
you know what i mean
well i think he's dead
i think that's
do you think charlie kirk
still alive
no i think there's
absolutely a possibility
that he's not dead
because like
the the weird thing
where he was wearing
this really heavy necklace
and it shot
up in his shirt
pulled his shirt up
and you didn't see
the hole until it came down
that could be a
really crazy
imagineer
built
it's a mechanism
for a blood packet
to go off
in like some kind of
weird fake
there is more
like crazy stuff
than that in movies
if they were going to
resurrect him
they would have done
around Easter time
not that they would
resurrect him
but that he
got to go live off
in the tunnels
and or whatever
is real
i don't know
what they say about
you know
the peaches of Israel
in Valhalla
i i don't know
like that
he's still alive
and he got
maybe he was
never really
tried perfect
that's a
that's a character
he plays
and he's really some
massage agent
and he's
off doing another character now
you see what i mean
like like
like Jeffrey Epstein
and i'm not saying
that's what
i believe
i'm saying
i absolutely
hold space
for the possibility
well that's just because
anything the
federal government
has given us
is garbage
they're lying
yeah
if you if
the most
what do they call themselves
the most transparent
administration ever
it just has
it's just feeding us
garbage when it comes
to the Epstein list
when it comes to this
like we
so all these
crazy things are coming out
because we
should trust anything
that they say
so like you do
have to kind of throw
everything at the wall
because
there's no baseline
there's no actual fact here
and something seem
more plausible than others
another thing that
blows my mind
not all not all conspiracy
theories are equal
if you compare pictures
of them from like
way before
of a
shooting or
or you know
it could be right
before the shooting
but just before he was
dead
Erica and Charlie Kirk
they have plenty of
pictures touching
each other's hands
in his hands
are so much bigger
than hers
and then you compare that
to the video
that came out
before she even
spoke out
where she puts her hands
on his dead hands
in his open casket
his hands are
like small
small hands
that are like
the same size as hers
okay
that's weird
and um
the other thing
that I found weird
was like
oh so that necklace
was on his body
and you know
the whole thing
where it shot up
in his shirt
and then
when she's driving away
she holds it up
in defiance
oh yeah the police
don't need that
that's totally not
evidence
see what I'm saying
that's crazy
like I
when I first heard that
like that wasn't
some conspiracy
theory
theorist pointed out
I just saw that
I was like
oh that's fake
in some way
or shape or form
but it's just like
showing us how
freaking
not serious
this is the police
sure
but I
so you have all of that
circumstantial evidence
I'll call it
yeah
and but what
conclusion does that
lead you towards
I definitely don't
have a conclusion
because I just
don't have enough
information
because they didn't
give us enough information
and you'll never get it
because everything beyond
now is just going to be
speculation and
conspiracy theory
I completely agree
and I'm also not
one of those people
that have like
been like
losing my mind
for months
about it
first of all
I wasn't like
a Charlie Kirk fan
I found it really
sad that he was dead
I was like
oh I know that guy
whoa that's really sad
and then it just
turned into like
whoa it feels like
people are just like
out and saying
like they would be
happy with killing
like any of us three
anybody I know
anybody who
remotely doesn't
tow the line
like
anybody who
remotely is not
full leftist
is like
like
about to get killed
like the
the climate got so crazy
but that died down so much
that's because words of violence
according to the leftist
right
and if words are violence
then he's already being violent
and you can be violent back
but that died down
so much that
I feel it was just
a bunch of big talk
and not as like
creeped out by that idea
anymore
like if it was
if any of those people
were near
being able to back up
the crap they were
saying like somebody
would have been
shot at a college campus
you know like
for being the only
Republican there
or stuff like that
well didn't they just
didn't some guy
just shoot
two people at brown
that's a crazy thing
we didn't talk about
with the nuclear
and I don't know
much about it
I don't think it has to do
with him being
a Republican
or something
well no it's just
I don't know
there's he killed
someone at brown
fled to New Hampshire
killed someone
like on the way
and then killed
himself at a storage
facility
no he killed somebody
at brown
and then he killed
somebody at MIT
yeah that was the
on the way
and then
and they but they
had a connection
and then
he ended up
at a storage facility
in New Hampshire
and they found him
with a self inflicted
gunshot wound
quote unquote
sure yeah quote unquote
the conspiracies
about that
is this guy
was close to
discovering
some new law
physics
and they were
and that is like
a true thing
he was like
close to some
physics
breakthrough
and because of that
and then he just
gets killed
people think that
he
like the government
approached him
and they're like
you can come work with us
and like black
budget stuff
but we got to pretend
you died
and you have to come
like live
with a totally
new identity
and work on stuff
for us
so
that could be
that could be true
yeah he could just
not even be dead
that's
yeah
all these people
get killed on
TV could totally
be dead
or not dead
in my opinion
because it's like
you see less
crazy stuff
in movie magic
and in the others
AI
like seriously
I don't know what to
believe like
when the new Charlie
or sorry
when the new
Gypsy Rose Blanchard
of
FOIA documents
just came out
like there's videos
of her saying
crazy stuff
from before the murder
okay
I just had to
take a second to think
this is actually
so unfortunate
that
that happened in 20
like these videos
are from 2013
1415
and we're only getting them
now
because now I have to wonder
if they're AI
they don't seem AI
at all
but that doesn't mean
anything anymore
right
it means nothing
there are hundreds of
hours of Gypsy Rose's
voice she had a
um
reality TV show
and stuff like that
and she's been in so many
documentaries like
it could be AI
right and this is what I've
been saying
for a while is like
at some point
you eat the only thing
you know for sure
are those
that which you've
experienced with your
five senses
right everything else
is hearsay
and you're taking
somebody else's word
for it
so choose your sources
wisely
so you know
who is reputable enough
that you can trust
their their
their
information
from their experience
yep that is definitely
true
it makes me feel like
too crazy
when I
when I get down to the
I can't believe
absolutely anything
unless I
have experienced it
type of thing
well it is definitely
true you can't
believe it
and it should have
been always the case
like even boomers
looking at the TV
should have known
they can't believe that
but they were
yeah
but at one point in time
there wasn't technology
for that right
so if you saw something
happened live on TV
yeah it's a good point
right that
that's what happened
yeah that's
that's a good point
and now it's like
not only is the video
not proof of anything
but even
but like let's say
we're not talking about
videos just like
reporting
yeah
even the boomers
should have known like
oh you don't just
you shouldn't just believe
but there was like
no precedent for that
it's like well
the TV told us
so and that's the news
well and they only had
like three newscasters
right
so ABC
NBC and CBS
or whatever
right and like those
those were your
those were your points
of information
you got all your information
from them
and if
they said the same thing
on each channel
right like
that was the facts
yeah
even if it wasn't
there was no way to refute it
but at the same time
if like three of your
good friends told you
like whoa we just came back
from an event
and this thing happened
like we watched the speaker
say something crazy
would you be like
I don't believe that
I wasn't there
you know what I mean
like that's AI
yeah but that's
parasocial
that's
that's a real social
relationship
your three close friends
but a newscaster's
parasocial
you just
you think you know him
or you
or you recognize him
because you see him every day
you don't really know
his character
outside of like
what about someone
you follow on X
I don't I
I don't believe
most of what I read
on X anymore
yeah parasocial there
but does that really mean
much like you really
don't know that
I would never lie to you
you see what I mean
like if I came over
to you guys
that said
well this crazy thing
you don't know for a fact
that I'd never lie to you
see what I'm saying
that's why I'm saying
like
you should be able to be like
I have a high degree of
reason to believe this
to be true
well okay
reason to
accept this
that doesn't mean you should
ever be like
oh I
believe it
just because Bonnie said it
you heard Bonnie tell
other people's stories
about times
where I was actually there
and she was truthful
in her telling of the stories
so when she tells me a
story of a time
where I wasn't there
I tend to believe her
okay yeah
that's what I mean
like you've built that up
and I just feel like
for the same time
you don't know that
something won't happen
where I have reason to lie to you
you're right
and that's what that's what I mean
it still shouldn't be a
belief
but what I'm also saying is
that is too far
like I'm making this case for this
like straw
this is like steelmaning it
or whatever
but I'm saying that's too far
like when you're
so if I wasn't there
and I'm not supposed to trust
anything you say
when you return
right then I can just
can't trust anything you say
yeah
and so then you're not a trusted source
and then you can't believe
anything else you're there
yeah yeah
but then you can never get
anything done
so there's that
there's the trade-off of
right
I'm going to trust you
I'll trust this person
because I've had enough
like intimate experiences
like like real experiences
with this person
that we've built this level of trust
so I
I just have to
at some time
take face value
for what they say
because I don't
I agree
and it's like
well then you
you can move
you can make decisions
based on that
but we do have
wanted to go outside and verify
we do have a
column lens
so I'm going to go
to the phones
anonymous caller
you're on free talk live
what's on your mind
drop it
drop it quick
just in case
I don't know
I think that
I could always dump it
if they
I heard something
are you there
anonymous caller
I just don't want it to be
who I don't want it to be
and oh
oh I thought you were
quicker we
the quicker we can not talk to
that guy
no no no
as the last person we talked to
this year
no that's
that's hilarious
but uh
no I I think that it was either
they were
that was a prank
or they just didn't
know they were on or something
like that
or some people call and they're
like
oh I was calling in
I was just trying to call listen
something like that
but I thought you're saying
hurry quick because they could
cuss or something
I was like
no no no
I have to jump button
I just didn't want to give him a chance
I didn't even think about him
honestly because he didn't call
yesterday
oh he's in my head
that's hilarious
he's one
yeah no
he's punch in the air right now
no I only think about him
twice a week
like when I'm doing my podcast
and when I'm here
literally like
I completely agree
it's like I can go my whole week
and forget about
he's that should not be named
and then I think about him
as soon as like the phone rings
but honestly
he's right all now
he's now we've
it's been brought up
I don't know if he always listens
but
I will also say
going back to the other topic
before you take that
even with the parasocial
relationship
right
nothing destroys that trust more
than hearing them
be wrong
about a subject
in which you have intimate information
yeah
oh like if I came in
I was like
you won't believe what I just heard
and you actually know for sure
I'm wrong
right if I'm an expert in a field
and they've talked about that
that field
right and they're completely off base
and wrong
right in my mind
that destroys their
the trust I have
with anything else
they talk about
because if they were wrong
about something I'm
intimately familiar with
and they're probably wrong
about most of the stuff
they talk about
and they're just wrong
well I'm going to try
him one more time
or her
you have
another chance
anonymous caller
are you there
can you hear us
so one is on screen
but you have caller ID
and Richie Rich knows who I am
and doesn't want to talk to me
because
it's not that I have been shadow banned
no it's that you're not the person
I was thinking about
yeah that's not who we were saying when
we were
no it's not showing
it says anonymous
I'm telling you it doesn't say
Richie Rich
yes sir
respectfully
one only need to look at you
to know what your
New Year's resolution
should be
yeah
to shave and lose weight
derelict
if derelict can pull it off
maybe you should like
well drop the pasta
and eat the long
and eat the shrimp
well why don't you send in a picture
Mr. Anonymous
no I don't care
well I don't
I don't want that
I got depressed
I let myself go
and I haven't made any sort of
resolution to get back
because you and your boyfriend know
you and your boyfriend
not only know what I look like
you know where I live
because people like turd
and people like
I can't even begin
to tell you how many phone calls
I used to get
from listeners to your show
even though I never
actually gave my phone number out
I don't even recognize your
voice
I don't know your voice
I don't know who the hell this is
I don't believe you
okay but
who did you think I was when
skater
the troll
phone number
we did not give up
it just says anonymous anonymous
I zoomed in on my
eyesight
I I
I thought you were skater
the troll
to give me that I made it
and insinuation
to the last time I called your show
which was when was that
days ago
other hosts were on
and nobody answered my phone call
because I know you know who this is
because I didn't block my phone
number
if this was a few days ago
we weren't on air
you know who I was calling in
but if I'm calling you a liar
well forgive me
because I would never call somebody
a liar
like your boyfriend did Bonnie
my boyfriend I married
I don't know who you're talking about
he's a little boy
anybody would marry
forgive me
I would actually think you were
Sarah's little sister
from the intellect that you
I don't even want to begin
I would think you're a loser
from your lack of being able to speak
I don't have the time of day
to tell you how
insanely stupid you are as a
fellow human being
you sound like you can't even
look
someone in the eyes
that when you're talking
when you're like
you're like
you're insane
insane
you're just stupid
when you talk
there's a lot of things I actually
want to say
Bonnie
but when you've been talking a lot
when you talk about
spit it out
being
are they a legitimate target
if they're coming from the east
into Ukraine
to shoot at mass murderers
no they're not a legitimate target
any more than a cop
if your house was
under home invasion
a cop tried to shoot
at the home invader
they're not a legitimate target
they're defending
liberty which is in your show's
name
I don't know what they're not talking about
if the cops were training
the home invaders
they would be a legitimate target
liberty is not in free talk
call Vladimir Putin a leader
instead of a gangster
and a mass murderer
that shows the intellect
of which goes through your brain cells
was this about like
the first segment
because I never said
anything about
oh coming from the east
Bonnie
yes
somebody coming from the east
that is defending
Ukraine's people's
right to breathe free
from a gangster army
they're not legitimate targets
and anybody that would defend a Russian
murdering anybody
in Ukraine I never defended
as an idiot
no but
when you ask the question
if they're a legitimate target
you haven't given any thought
I don't even know what you're talking about
I feel like we're talking to a
schizophrenic lunatic
seriously
and that's a horrible way to end the
in the 2025
just like an awful call
and of course you call
should have just listened to me
left him off the first time
yeah but that's
that wasn't my fault
because you thought it was Skeeter
I did
I would rather talk to Skeeter
what a lunatic
but yeah I don't recognize the voice
I don't you know
obviously he didn't share his name
no I don't
and he said that there were other
he said there were other
people on
so he wasn't even saying
you know like
I don't know where that was
what he was talking about
well we were just saying that
Putin said that they were
he was gonna start
attacking European soldiers
that he's the one who's saying
they were legitimate target
he said from these
we only do two live shows
and it's Saturday and Sunday
so if he was listening
a couple of days ago
I don't know what he was listening to
well and he didn't share that either
forgetting that
like you know
dog crap
