I named my first son Rectel. 12 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: I was planning on having too, but you know, time 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: makes fools of us all. Indeed, Rexel Evans does not 14 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: sound like a good name. I don't want to be 15 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: born with that one. We we got a real boy 16 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: named Sue situation. Meanwhile, Paula Holmes, Yeah, Paula Holmes perfectly. Yeah, 17 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: Paul Holmes is a solid poul up. Paula Holmes is 18 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: going to cut one hell of an R and B album. 19 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: Rectel L. Evans is going to join Blackwater. Oh yeah, yeah, 20 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: I mean my goal with any child I have is 21 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: to be so bad at being their parents that we 22 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: wind up having a bloody, glass filled fight in a 23 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: bar at some point, like I want that experience from 24 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: the end of Boy Named Sue Um And then you 25 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 1: do an episode about your own Yeah, about my own father, 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: you do an episode about you if you name your 27 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: kidding rectels. We're talking about Mike Adams, a man who 28 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: talks about butts, but mainly to sell people silver that 29 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: they should put inside of their butts, which is a 30 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: real thing that Mike at himselves colonic silver, which is 31 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: but silver fun times. So, based on everything we've learned 32 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: about the Health Rangers so far, most of you probably 33 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: take it as a given that he's not exactly going 34 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: to be on the right side of the vaccine issue. 35 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: And so we're clear the right side of the vaccine 36 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: issue is that vaccines are good. I think we're in there. 37 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: I think we're all we should all be in agreement 38 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: about that one. Now. I'm still on team polio. I'm 39 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: still on team polio. It's coming back. You just that's 40 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: a defensible argument, though, if you're anti vaccine not because 41 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: you don't think they work, but because you hate people 42 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: and want them to get polio. That's a consistent line. Yeah. Absolutely. 43 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: If Exxon just came out and was like, we want 44 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: to kill people with our climate change bullshit, you'd be like, 45 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess that's I guess that's a reasonable argument. 46 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what to tell you there. I can 47 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 1: imagine just like the CEO of Exxon in a Patagonia 48 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: jacket at like some coast side, like putting his leg 49 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: up on like a boulder, lighting a cigarette and tossing 50 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: into the ocean and saying, here at Exxon Mobile, we 51 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: think the environment. You can argue with the conclusion, but 52 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: not how they Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like, Okay, at 53 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: least at least you're consistent. BP just released an official 54 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: statement changing their motto to uh, oh fuck them, just 55 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: get out of here. So yeah, I don't think anyone's 56 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: gonna be surprised to know that Mike Adams is a 57 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: staunch anti vaxer. I think you might be surprised to 58 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: learn how influential Mike has been in terms of helping 59 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: the anti vaccine movement grow and metastasize. Now it is 60 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: easy to trace the influence of stuff like that Wakefield 61 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: fucker's bullshit Lancet study because vaccination rates fell as soon 62 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: as it went viral. The impact of a guy like 63 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: Mike Adams is harder to parse out. It's clear that 64 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: he championed every single popular claim about vaccines being dangerous 65 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: there ever was. It's clear that he spread false information 66 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: about vaccines having toxic levels of mercury, that he ranted 67 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: about the supposed connection between vaccines and autism, and and 68 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: that he claimed that the medical establishment had engaged in 69 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: a systemic cover up campaign in order to suppress the evidence. 70 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: But like a lot of people have written about all 71 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: of that stuff, what makes Mike Adams special is the 72 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: size of his platform. I think prog rest notes. According 73 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: to the service com Score, natural News hosted over two 74 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: million unique visitors in the month of December two fourteen. 75 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: The websites Google page rank US is a respectable six, 76 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: and the same number enjoyed by other more mainstream preachers 77 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: in the natural space. The CEO of Whole Foods, John 78 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: Mackie's blog also receives a six. As to the landing 79 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: pages for Andrew Wheel and Deepac Chopra. They add that 80 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: Adams claims that he has personally authored over two thousand articles, 81 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: including investigative articles, SAP, tire, and op ed, and that 82 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: his writings have collectively been read by over a hundred 83 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: million people over the last decade. Every Yeah, I think 84 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna run into some of his satire later. Yeah yeah. 85 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,679 Speaker 1: They note that Adams's news feeds regularly get higher numbers, 86 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: like his news feeds are larger than that of the 87 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: Atlantic or the Los Angeles Times. Um so he's he's influential. 88 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: This is not just some guy ranting against vaccines. This 89 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: is some guy that more people trust than the Atlantic. 90 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: As long as nobody's reading Freeder's door. If I've and 91 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm okay with that great one of my one of 92 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: my mortal enemies, I mean yeah, I mean history's greatest monster. 93 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: But uh, talking about Mike Adams right now now. When 94 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: that thing Progress article dropped, Natural News had about one 95 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: and a half million followers on Facebook. By two thousand nineteen, 96 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: they had almost three million, which is more followers than 97 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: info Wars ever had at its height. John Inteen is 98 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: an author and award winning journalist. He runs the Genetic 99 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: Literacy Project, which fights misinformation about GMOs and other anti 100 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: scientific gobbledegook. He's another one of the people who's been 101 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: writing about Mike Adams for years while the rest of 102 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: the world ignored him. His research confirmed that by two 103 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: thou nineteen, Adams claim to have more than three hundred 104 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: and sixty thousand subscribers to his daily newsletter and more 105 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: than four million monthly unique visitors to his websites. John 106 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: pointed out that Natural News ranked one eight hundred and 107 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: fourteen on the entire Internet. Let's put them roughly on 108 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: par with the Mayo Clinic, well ahead of cancer dot gov, 109 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: which is less than half of the traffic of Natural News, 110 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: and way way way the funk ahead of the National 111 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: Institutes of Health National Center for Complimentary and Alternative Medicine, 112 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: which only gets seventy three thousand unique visits per year. 113 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: Probably the problem is that the n i H isn't 114 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: doing enough satire. Yeah, yeah, throws some fucking satire in 115 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: the lazy bastards. So Mike's not just one member of 116 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,679 Speaker 1: a chorus of loons talking about, you know, vaccines killing kids. 117 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: He's one of the like single people with the largest 118 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: megaphones for spreading this kind of stuff in the world. Um, 119 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: and the fact that he's a lot less flamboyant and 120 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: interesting than Alex Jones is the only reason why he's 121 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: probably not more famous among actual scientists, though he has 122 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: been reviled four years as a major ARCon of disinformation. 123 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to quote from one of John Inteen's articles. Now, 124 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: adams natural news dot com website has been characterized by 125 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: Brian Dunning of the fucking Dunning Kruger Effects the Science. 126 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: But yeah, like, hey, like that fucking guy, uh you know, yeah, 127 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: the number one worst anti science website. Physician bloggers Stephen 128 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: Novella and clinical neurologist and assistant professor at Yale University 129 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: School of Medicine characterized Adams as a dangerous, conspiracy mongering 130 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: crank Oncologist David Gorski, a ka or called natural News 131 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,239 Speaker 1: the wretchedest, scummiest, and quackiest website on the Internet. Alan 132 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: Livinowitz at James Madison University, professor writing for Slate wrote 133 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: natural News is a cesspool of pseudo scientific in sanity, 134 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: season generously with political vitriol and outlandish conspiracy theories. So 135 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: most eily Cantina. Yeah, part of me, I know, I 136 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: was really stoked about Yeah, that's it. That's good. He's 137 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: he's the most Eisles Cantina of convincing parents not to 138 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: give their kids measles vaccines. Those those quotes always make 139 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: me think of something. Uh. The problem with brilliant people 140 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: who are about stuff is that they get very poetic 141 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: in their insults. If if the guy just wrote and 142 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: slate this dude is a fucking idiot and if you 143 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: listen to him, you're a fucking moron. I think people 144 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: would get it on a larger scale. Yeah, instead of 145 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: like he's the choffiest boy whoever chopped it. Well, this 146 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: gets into another problem. We were talking in the first 147 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: episode about like THEIRS data and FAIRS data and how 148 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: it's continuously misused by people, and like it exists for 149 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: a good reason and scientists created these things for a 150 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: good reason. But this is why international science should hire 151 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: people like us to like, Okay, so we think we're 152 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: gonna have this kind of database, we'll put it here 153 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,599 Speaker 1: for the whole public. U. No, no, no, no, no, 154 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a bad idea. Let me tell you, yeah, 155 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: let me tell you what's gonna happen. Like, Yeah, there 156 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: should be a Council of people who know how grifters think, 157 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: like sitting down with brilliant science and being like, here's 158 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: why you need to take a different tact. Here's here's 159 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: the whole they're going to find their way through, and 160 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: then after the fact they need us also to clown 161 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: on them like the Mic adams Is of the world, 162 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: as opposed to like just responding, yeah, you dunk on 163 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: these fools. Yeah now. Brian Dunning is noted above pointing 164 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: out that natural News is very influential, saying for it's 165 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: frighteningly large influence and abysmal quality of information, it earns 166 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: the number one spot on this list of anti science websites. 167 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: The influence that natural news dot com gained has led 168 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: to peer reviewed papers actually mentioning it. For example, Wayne 169 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: Parrott in the University of Georgia uh Journal of New 170 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: Biotechnology wrote an article defending genetically modified food, and as 171 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: an example of the allegations he was addressing, included a 172 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: Natural News article. I've also found another study that list 173 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: listed natural News is one of twenty or so like 174 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 1: influential voices in the anti vaccine movement. But these these 175 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: peer reviewed studies are mentioning natural News as a bad thing. Yes, ok, yeah, yeah, 176 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: they are saying this is an example of a dangerous 177 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 1: influence that is causing people to believe lies. Yeah no, 178 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: you meant that. It was like they were being cited. Okay, 179 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: christ No. Now, while I was researching this article, I 180 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: came across a study published by the n i H 181 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 1: which I don't know if you guys know this, but 182 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: it has a terrible Google ranking, very unimpressive traffic um. 183 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: The study was published in two thousand eighteen and it's 184 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: titled the Anti Vaccine Movement of Regression in Modern Medicine. 185 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: It opens my noting the premise of the anti vaccination 186 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: movement can also be contributed to the demonization of vaccines 187 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: by news and entertainment outlets. Voices such as Jenny McCarthy's 188 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: have proven to be influential, sweeping fear and distrust into 189 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: parents minds by parading as autism experts. Now interestingly enough, 190 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 1: Mike Adams was one of the earliest and maybe the 191 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: most prominent people to spread Jenny McCarthy's ill educated not 192 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: anti vaccine nonsense. In two thousand ten, Mike Adams published 193 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: an article titled Andrew Wakefield Scientific Censorship and fourteen Monkeys 194 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 1: a State a statement. A statement by Jenny McCarthy and 195 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: Jim Carrey. I want to go back in time and 196 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: talk to me in the nineties and just be like, hey, 197 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: you know that show singled out, that's gonna get people measles, 198 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: good luck, that's gonna cause dead diseases to come back 199 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: to life years. No one's going to look good involved 200 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: in this. Yeah. The other The other thing too, about 201 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: Mike Adams at this all this stuff, is like he's 202 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: actually good friends with Wakefield, Like him and Wakefield are buddies. Yeah, 203 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: they live in Austin. I'm sure they are drinking with 204 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: Alex Jones. Well, Mike Adams doesn't drink, but so he says, 205 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: he also has nine percentile in sobriety. He is and 206 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: m I T just could not stop flinging themselves at him. 207 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: So before essentially this article was just Mike Adams publishing 208 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: unedited a statement by Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy about life. 209 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: Vaccine are bad, and before he published their and edited words, 210 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: he wrote this introduction. When it comes to vaccines, Jenny 211 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: McCarthy and Jim Carrey get it. They see how the 212 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: pharma industry is engineering a campaign to silence Dr Andrew 213 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: Wakefield in order to suppress the publication of startling new 214 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: evidence linking vaccines to severe neurological damage at great risk 215 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: to their professionals careers, Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carey have 216 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: found the courage to dare to tell the truth about 217 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: vaccines and autism despite the vicious attacks by the pro 218 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: vaccine zealots. It will stop at nothing to destroy anyone 219 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: who challenges conventional vaccine mythology. McCarthy and Carrey have issued 220 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: a powerful, inspired statement that reveals the truth behind the 221 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: big pharma smear campaign that is intent on destroying the 222 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: reputation of Dr Andrew Wakefield before you can publish the 223 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 1: final results of this important new study. He never never 224 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: published the new study, of course, not because if I, Yeah, 225 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: if I were Mike and I was writing that, I 226 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: would have thrown in something like Jim to quote Jim Carrey, 227 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: somebody stopped me before. I don't vaccinate my child. Something 228 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 1: kid is smoking with the measles. I can't think of 229 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: any good Jim Carey quotes right now, something about the Majestic. 230 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: I was gonna, I was gonna try to say syphilis, 231 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: but in the same voice he says, alrighty then, but 232 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: I can't do a good gym carey, so I'm not 233 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: even gonna trysi. Yeah, yeah, sure, sure, sure sure. A 234 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: quick question, Um, yeah, I've been wondering this a bunch 235 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: if Big Pharma weren't so actively shitty, like if they 236 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: were actually often like a bunch of chill folk. No, 237 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: I mean, like, if they were acting ethically all the time. 238 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: Of course, Mike Adams would still make these stupid bullshit claims. 239 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 1: There's no reason not to. You know, it doesn't matter 240 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: if they're on the up and up or not. But 241 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:52,599 Speaker 1: since they are so fucking inethical, is it? Do you 242 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: think that contributes to how easy people find it to 243 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: believe his bullshit? I think not the vaccine I want 244 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: to say not the vaccine parts of the pharmaceutical industry, 245 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: because as a general rule, like, I'm not aware of 246 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: much in the way of shadiness that goes on with 247 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: that specific chunk of it. But I think stuff like 248 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: the sacklers in the opioid epidemic, and like jacking up 249 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: the price of various medications like insulin, Like I'm that 250 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: all definitely contributes to people's general mistrust of the pharmaceutical industry. Um, 251 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: and yeah, it's if we lived in some sort of 252 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: crazy society where we all paid, you know, people like 253 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: us paid thirty or forty bucks a year, people who 254 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: had millions of dollars paid more, and it just funded 255 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: huge amounts of medical research. And then medication was available 256 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: free or at cost, as opposed to being for profit endeavor. 257 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: Maybe this stuff would have less traction, and diabetics wouldn't 258 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: be rationing their insulin in order to pay rent. Maybe 259 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: both of those things could happen. I don't know. That 260 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: seems like a crazy, crazy nonsense off society could function 261 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: that way. Our our system where a company lies about 262 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: the addictiveness of OxyContin for twenty years and two people die, 263 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: is clearly more sustainable. Yeah. Now, there exists on this 264 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: glorious Internet of ours a website called Jenny McCarthy body 265 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: count dot com. It includes an exhaustively sourced count of 266 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 1: every preventable illness caused by anti vaccine bullshit and every 267 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: death from two thousand seven to two fifteen. Why isn't 268 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: Jim Carrey getting a little bit of that? And Mike 269 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: Adams isn't he as much a part of this? They 270 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: do focus unfairly on Jenny McCarthy. I thought it was 271 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: I thought it was just a website that chronicled every 272 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: picture she has on the internet. They would actually be 273 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: similar numbers, because Jenny McCarthy body count dot com counts 274 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty two thousand, seven hundred and sty 275 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: two preventable illnesses and nine thousand deaths, and that's up 276 00:15:55,120 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: to two. Now it's your own conclusion in your own 277 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: head is to how many of those deaths and illnesses 278 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: we can pin on Mike Adams for being a major, major, 279 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: one of the most prominent spreaders of Jenny McCarthy's bullshit. 280 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna say he gets it, he gets a 281 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: cut of it, like one of those things like I'm 282 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: never never too interested in assigning like full blame or anything. Yeah, 283 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: you're a part of this. That means you get you 284 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: get your part, You're just in it. You're in the 285 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: conversation of who's you get your share whatever that is. 286 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: Of all of these, it does seem like blaming, blaming dumb, 287 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: dumb celebrity for believing dumb ship doesn't make any sense, 288 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: Like The real issue is the people who exploit her dumb, 289 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: dumb bullshit for their own game. I mean, think about 290 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: how many celebrities have had dumb, harmless beliefs over the years. Yeah, 291 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: like John Wilkes Booth, Like John never heard anybody. Now, 292 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: I only read about Wilkes Booth in terms of his 293 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: his career up to eighteen sixty four as an actor, 294 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: but never harmed anybody. And he's not today. It's the 295 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: greatest hold on. He's the Tom Hecks of his day. Yeah. God, 296 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: what if Tom Tanks assassinates a president? What would that? 297 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: Can you imagine America? I'm not saying this one, I'm 298 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: saying a president. I'm just like, no, I agree, imagine 299 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: America grappling with that. It would be way tougher for 300 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: me to watch that Carly ray Jepson video. Number one concern, 301 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 1: you see, I'm just thinking about what an intense news 302 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: cycle that would be. Uh So that in a h 303 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: study I cited a little earlier on the growth of 304 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: the anti vax movement is emphatic about the role the 305 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: Internet has played in spreading this nonsense. It does not 306 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: name natural News directly, but it makes a very clear 307 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: point about how dangerous the kind of misinformation Mike Adams 308 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: trucks in truly is quote. Not only are these tactics 309 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: deceitful and dishonest, they are also effective on many parents. 310 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: A study that evaluated how effectively users assessed the accuracy 311 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: of medical information about vaccines online concluded that fifty of 312 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: student participants thought retrieved sites were entirely accurate. However, out 313 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: of the forties sites they were given, only eighteen were 314 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: actually accurate, while twenty two were inaccurate. These sites were 315 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: not evidence based and argued vaccines were inherently dangerous. About 316 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: any merit based argument, more than half of participants left 317 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 1: the exercise with consistent misconceptions about vaccines. Research has also 318 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: shown that viewing an anti vaccine website for merely five 319 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: to ten minutes increased perceptions of vaccine risks and decreased 320 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: perceptions of the risks of vaccine omission compared to visiting 321 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: a control site. The study also found that the active 322 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: vaccine sentiments obtained from viewing the website still persisted five 323 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: months later, causing the children of these parents to obtain 324 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: fewer vaccinations than recommended.

Now, this, 348 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 1: this rap song was part of his anti vaccine campaign 349 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: and its title is Vaccine Zombie. Now, before you go 350 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,479 Speaker 1: any further, can I ask you if you know who 351 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: produced this was this?

I don't as far 354 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 1: as I'm aware. As far as I'm aware, I think 355 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: old dirty bastard shows up at some point. Good glad, 356 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: he's glad his hologram is still guesting. Um. Now, I 357 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: I this is a three minute long video and there's 358 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: it's too information DNS to play all at once. So 359 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you Dan to play the first minute 360 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: of the video and then uh, we will stop it 361 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: and we will play the second minute of the video. 362 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: In parenthes is the health record, He says more than 363 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 1: one million Americans are all written infective, play Safe for Shelby, 364 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: get Vaccinating, Swan films coming Black like it's like seven 365 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: to six. You gotta probably get back. But not that 366 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: the vaccine don't give and that because those medical quacks. 367 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm making money off that vaccine to protest people like that, 368 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: walking me well contagious. The truth is outrageously. Don't just 369 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: hold the drug companies made this flu and you can 370 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: they can do. One of them made this. You got 371 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: to say this. Don't don't infect me, don't infect me 372 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 1: in all chemical don't check me, don't infect me, needle 373 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: in my brain, a medical record, don't don't refuse me, 374 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: push a medical lies and try to confuse Alright, alright, alright, alright, 375 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: that's uh, that's unbelievable. That is the opening credits to 376 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: a Nick Krall produced shows How Would You Do? What? What? 377 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: We got to describe the animation for the listeners, because 378 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: they're not going to be seeing this. This art rudimentary 379 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: seems like a good place to start in terms of describe, 380 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: I would say two thousand nine era flash animation. I 381 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: would give it that. There's also I have happened to 382 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: pause it right at a point where it's clearly a 383 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson. The whole thing is clearly on Michael Jackson. 384 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: Rip off. Yeah, there there is. There's a one of 385 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 1: the zombies is clearly a knock on Michael. I don't 386 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: know what's going it's not it's not similar to it. 387 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: There's no similarities between the song and thriller. It's just 388 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 1: about vaccine zombies and Michael Jackson dressed as a zombie 389 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 1: at one time. So he's the centerpiece of the video. Ohoy. Creatively, 390 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: he could do worse. Yeah, but he doesn't write a 391 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: terrible hook. I've heard yeah, I and I do do 392 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: anything the doctors tell me. So I I identify with 393 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: the character. And this is from too so like this 394 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: is before a lot of the evolution of rap. Kendrick 395 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,640 Speaker 1: had only released his first album at this point. The time, 396 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: he doesn't even know about this ship. Oh yeah, and 397 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: I think this one probably had a big impact on 398 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar. I think, yeah, I think he might have 399 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: created a trap You just pulled that from thin air. 400 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to sound cool as an old man, 401 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 1: being like one of the kids really do these days? 402 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: I know trap music is a thing. My music is 403 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: more like discharged. I'm still listening to Scott and Carly 404 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: ray Us. Well, hey, let's Scott Scott never died and 405 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: is as famous and beloved as it's always been. And 406 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: that's the end of that discussion. Let's play the rest 407 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: of this album. All right, here we go song, Don't 408 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: you know Swam made bomb man pharmaceutical scam. It's so dope. 409 00:24:43,640 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, yeah, check you. They impact you. 410 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: I'm actually getting into that, use you. They say the 411 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: same in your life, really confuse you. Oh your kids 412 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: shoot him up, just gotta get it. Tears and the 413 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 1: babies and the tears and when they get paralyzed. There's 414 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: been realized there's no data. Undo the big drug companies 415 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: and making them killing, collecting the billions and getting the 416 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 1: way like a jazz bomb villain, because the villain to 417 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: do almost anything just to make money with the flu vaccy. Wow. 418 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: You guys had a pretty strong reaction to Mike Adams 419 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: appearing in the flesh on that video. Yeah. I wasn't 420 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: ready for the animation changed from like goofy cartoons to 421 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: Mike Adams in a rotoscope list undershirt. Oh god, Yeah, 422 00:25:54,640 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: that's that's about enough. I suspect of that. That's that's frightening. Yeah, 423 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: that's it's a lot. It's a lot to take in, um, 424 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: but you you get an idea of how Mike makes 425 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: his arguments about vaccinats to people well up and fall 426 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: off if you if you vaccinate yourself. That's one of 427 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: those like watching that part of that especially, Like it's 428 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 1: that weird middle ground that I don't understand exactly how 429 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: to figure out what's what. Like there's a clear attempt 430 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: to be funny. Clearly he's trying to be funny on 431 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: some level. Yeah, yeah, but it's mixed in with these 432 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: um audacious, unproven medical claims. It's it's hard to figure 433 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: out where the line is. Like, how much of that 434 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: nut sex stuff was a joke? Yeah? It does. Mike 435 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: Adams really believe that. So every girlfriend I've ever had 436 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: has said that to me, the vaccines are going to 437 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: shrivel you on nuts. Know how much of that nut 438 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: sex stuff is a joke? Oh oh well yeah, Now 439 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: we should probably talk a little bit more about what 440 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: kind of person Mike Adams is. I I just wish 441 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: we had more detail about his life. So tragically, we're 442 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 1: going to have to refer back to the bio on 443 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: his website where he notes Adams has no criminal record 444 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: and has never been arrested. Bio. That's that's I actually 445 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:26,719 Speaker 1: wrote it in your bio too. He avoids alcohol, smoking, coffee, 446 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: and all recreational drugs. He has never used recreational drugs 447 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: in his entire Life's kind of think he might have 448 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: used recreational drugs. Yeah. Yeah, if you have to preemptively 449 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: deny something, that's probably because you already did it. But also, 450 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: how do you do an alternative news site that has 451 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,479 Speaker 1: stuff about crystals and not smoke some weed? Like, how 452 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: do that? Doesn't that seems very incongruous to me? It does? 453 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: It does, Adams notes in his website. Adams is not 454 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: known to appear on the social scene and usually spends 455 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: time in nature rather than socializing. He's occasionally spotted in 456 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: public at the Whole Foods market in Austin, Texas. Adams 457 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: is well trained in hand to hand combat, firearms, and 458 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: self defense. He has authored numerous courses on self defense 459 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: and personal protection. So Mike Adams goes to Whole Foods 460 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: and he'll fucking kill you. Yeah, I like that. He's 461 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 1: not you know, you're not going to find him at 462 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: a debutop ball, but he'll be at the whole foods 463 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: and he has trained tell you'll fuck you up? Tell 464 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: me how much friends there is between that and maybe 465 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: the unibomber's self described bio like like, come on, man, 466 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 1: Kauzynski wasn't good at Judo. No, no, he was not 467 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: uh terrible at Judo. Incredible presence on the Graham though, 468 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: really took to social media like a duck takes to water. Now. 469 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: One thing we all know for sure about Mike Adams 470 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: is that he has thin skin when it comes to 471 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: people criticizing him directly. This might be part of why 472 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: he's not more widely known. On April third, two fourteen, 473 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: John inteen wrote a profile of Adams for Forbes, where 474 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: he is a contributor. Mike lashed out to Forbes the 475 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: same day, claiming John's article contained factual and accuracies and slander. 476 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: He told Forbes to take it down and they folded 477 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: like an oregamy crane. Adams demanded substantial corrections, and of 478 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: which dealt with the actual meat of John's claims. Adams 479 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: didn't want to be called anti science, or an AIDS 480 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: denialist or a nine and eleven truther. He wrote this 481 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: to Forbes, I am contacting you to firmly request that 482 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: you immediately retract this article and refrain from allowing obvious 483 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: biotechnology frontman such as John Inteen to exploit your website 484 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: for such false and defamatory hit piece articles filled with 485 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: many factual errors and rumormongering. Falls into the category of 486 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: cyber bullying. Are we still in his bio? No? No, no, 487 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: he's is what he wrote Forbes. That's a good letter though, Yes. Now, 488 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: because he's a real journalist, John Intene published the gigantic 489 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: document exhaustively laying out the evidence for every claim he 490 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: made against Mike Adams. You can go read it right 491 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: now on the subject of AIDS denial, and includes screen 492 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: grabs of an article written by Mike Adams titled AIDS 493 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: The gray medical con is explained by data. Mike, Yeah, AIDS, 494 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm denying it. Don't call me an AIDS denier. Here's 495 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: what he wrote in that article. HIV does not cause AIDS. 496 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: HIV does not cause anything. A staggering statement, giving the 497 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,719 Speaker 1: hype and acceptance of the scientific establishment and through them, 498 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: the public, that the HIV virus is the only cause 499 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 1: of AIDS. HIV is a weak virus and does not 500 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: dismantle the immune system, nor is aids passed on sexually. 501 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: Did he write this in the Reagan era? Like when 502 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: did he write that? No, that's like or some ship 503 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: that's crazy? Yeah, Now that sounds almost like a daily 504 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: affirmation that he tells himself, Hey, don't worry about it, Mike, Mike, 505 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: We're gonna be fine. You can't get aids, Mike. Yeah. Now, 506 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: to back up his statement that Mike Adams is a 507 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: nine eleven truther, John Intane included this article that Mike 508 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,120 Speaker 1: wrote jumping rope in nine eleven truth how sheep have 509 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: been trained to avoid the unpopular truth about World Trade 510 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: Center seven. There's there's numerous examples of both of these things. 511 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: Is yeah, him of course being this kind of person. Yeah. 512 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: And while Adams accused John inteen of cyber bullying, the 513 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: email that he himself sent John seems to fit that 514 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: definition much better. As you are now well aware, you 515 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: are about to be named in a personal lawsuit which 516 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: will cite the extensive body if you're defamation and cyber 517 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: bullying efforts, all of which have been archived in timestamp 518 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: for court evidence. You can count on this lawsuit requiring 519 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: considerable resources of your time and money for the foreseeable future. 520 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: You are no doubt also aware that I have many 521 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: friends in law enforcement and that we are simultaneously pursuing 522 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: an effort to have you arrested and charged with cyber 523 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: bullying crimes. Fairness, he is a ranger. Yeah, he is 524 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: a ranger. He got those tabs, He got his Health 525 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: Ranger tabs. His Challenge coin is just a vial of 526 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: a bowl. Now, as far as I'm aware of, the 527 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: defamation suit against John Inteen did not proceed, and John 528 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: Inteen continues to write fantastic articles about Mike Adams. He 529 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: was particularly furious in May of two thousand fourteen when 530 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: Doctor Oz, America's most prominent medical con man who will 531 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: probably sue me for that line, invited Mike Adams on 532 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: as a guest on the Doctor Oz Show. No, that's 533 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: not real, that that fucking happens. You can't do that. 534 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: You can't do that. That's crazy. That's that's second to 535 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: the music video. Like you should lose your medical license 536 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: for sitting down and talking to Mike Adams and doing 537 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: anything but saying how dare you? Yeah? Yeah, absolutely show 538 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: medical license. Yeah, I'm still going to go with I 539 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: think we're going to put that in there too. Up 540 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: in there, I think we've learned that in America, not 541 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: a goddamn thing will get a TV show taken. You 542 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: should lose your fucking freedom for that ship. Yeah, yeah, 543 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 1: it's pretty bad now. As Think Progress notes, the Doctor's 544 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: twelve minutes segment with the Health Ranger was concerned with 545 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: Adams's research into the levels of heavy metals contained in 546 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: a variety of supposedly organic foods. Dr Oz directed viewers 547 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: to adams website in order to find out which Ginko, 548 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: Beloba protein and Coco supplements passed the test performed in 549 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: adams own lab. Those pages off a recommendations and esoteric 550 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: explanations and the levels of heavy metals discovered in each product, 551 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: but nothing on the methodology and instrumentation used to arrive 552 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 1: at these vital and commercially impactful conclusions. I really can't 553 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: overstate how fucking dangerous this is on Dr Oz's part. 554 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: Having Mike Adams on and giving them the chance to 555 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: plug his websites and wares and focusing the conversation on 556 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: one narrow area that seems legitimate is just about one 557 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: of the most irresponsible cases of platforming I can imagine, 558 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: and there's not even any evidence that adams Is research 559 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: into heavy metals on these drugs is accurate in any way, 560 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: shape or form. I think Progress reached out to eight 561 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: of the vendor's micro viewed badly on his website. They 562 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: found that no one in the supplement industry was willing 563 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: to go on record talking about Mike Adams, one company's 564 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: president whose products are certified organic and meet all the 565 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: necessary standards of the when f d A agree to 566 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: talk on the condition of anonymity, stating that people in 567 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: our position don't want to validate his arguments or acknowledge them. 568 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: We don't want to kick him in case he decides 569 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,359 Speaker 1: to come after us. The minute you open your mouth 570 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: on that echo chamber, you're on the defense and there 571 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: is no coming back. That sounds that sounds real. Yeah, 572 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: that sounds entirely exactly what you'd expect. It's it's so 573 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 1: reasonable and so smart for them to do that, and 574 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,479 Speaker 1: yet at the same time it makes you so sad 575 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: because what we should be doing is fighting fucking head on. 576 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 1: Is burned this guy to the ground. Yeah that sucks. Yeah. Now, 577 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: over the last decade and change. There have been a 578 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 1: lot of alterations to the way the Internet works. Google's 579 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: altered their algorithm numerous times to trying to make life 580 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: harder for people like Mike Adams. The rights of social 581 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: media has further changed the landscape, and Mike has had 582 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 1: to adapt to stay relevant and profitable. Shark. He's like 583 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,479 Speaker 1: a shark and the Internet is run entirely on windmills now. Also, 584 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,320 Speaker 1: sharks don't exist the global conspiracy. No, sharks do not exist. 585 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 1: That's obvious though. I found a great article by the 586 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: McGill Office for Science and Society published in twenty eighteen 587 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: that traced out Mike's online empire at what might have 588 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: been like proved to have been its height. They found 589 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 1: at least fifty websites owned by him, from natural News 590 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 1: and other phone news websites like GMO News and Medicine 591 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: News and Vaccine News, to anti left wing sites like 592 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: Campus Insanity, Libtards dot news and Freedom dot News. There 593 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: were also the predictable prepper websites like Collapse dot News. 594 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: Quote from McGill on clarella factor dot com, a website 595 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: dedicated to an algae sold as a super food. You 596 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: will be scared into thinking every seller of clare Ella 597 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: wants to kill you, except for Adams, who, of course 598 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: wants you to know that his store offers clean clearella, 599 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 1: even if it means less profit than retailing cheaper, lower 600 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: quality Clarella. Well, Adams trots out this food sources a 601 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: defense against cancer. The evidence isn't there. On consumer Wellness 602 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: dot org you will find a legit looking portal for 603 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: a nonprofit that funds educational programs. Press releases on the 604 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,479 Speaker 1: website claim that the center annually hands out educational grant 605 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: stage school children, expectant mothers in school, nutritional programs, and 606 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,919 Speaker 1: low income families. Under board of directors, a single person 607 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: is named Mike Adams. There's an invitation to join our 608 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: advisory board, but no members are listed. The site was 609 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: last updated in two thousand and sixteen that the organization 610 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: was granted tax eximp status in sneaky Yeah now?

Yeah, 613 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,399 Speaker 1: it was not that far away now. That report also 614 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: notes that Mike Adams has published a browser tool bar 615 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: designed to keep readers permanently connected to his online empire 616 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: even when they visit other sites. It's really smart. Yeah 617 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: that's that's crazy. Uh, ok, top smart. Yeah, I hate him. 618 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: I hate him so much, but yeah, I hate him 619 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: even more because I'm like, fun, that's a good idea. Yeah, 620 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,720 Speaker 1: it's a great idea. Now. I didn't download that toolbar 621 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: because I am not willing to have my laptop take 622 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: that bullet for this podcast. But I did some other research. 623 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: For one thing. Mike owns Nature PDA, which allows people 624 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: to look up ailments like ib S and see that 625 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: the healthiest keres or supplements that Mike Adam sells on 626 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: his own stores, and that is coincidental. Yeah, so we're 627 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: we're weird how that works. Now. Mike also has his 628 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: own search engine, which he builds as a replacement to Google. Uh. 629 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: It's called good Gopher. Yeah, good Gopher. Uh. It's billed 630 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 1: is filtering out corporate propaganda and government disinformation. Um, well 631 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 1: it's it's not quite what I had expected. So I 632 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: found out about this and that McGill report which notes 633 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: that like searching for the Washington Post doesn't take you 634 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: to the Washington Post, it sends you to truth WICKI 635 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 1: Real Investigations, dot news and disinfo dot news. Um yeah, yeah, 636 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: yeah it So I I tried out good Gopher myself 637 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: just to see what sort of results it gave, and 638 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,959 Speaker 1: I entered in what is my very favorite single word 639 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: search term, which is just the word Hitler and nothing else. 640 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: I just I wanted to see where that took us. 641 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,560 Speaker 1: I like it, that's a test. I like, yeah, what, 642 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 1: let's you see what he's got to say about him. 643 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: If result one on that website is like it was 644 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: Hitler that bad guys, come on, then result three Jordan's 645 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: I'm guessing. Result one is the Sloan Foundation, which Alfred 646 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 1: the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation UM on truth Wicki. Result 647 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 1: two is the I. G. Farben Pharmaceutical Conglomerate on truth Wicki. 648 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 1: And the result three was a blog called macro Cosmic 649 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: Thinking pot calling the kettle black the vilification of Hitler. 650 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: Oh god, yeah yeah. It's the kind of Nazi propaganda 651 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: that tries to mask itself. Is just correcting their record. 652 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: So it says that, like, you know, Hitler really wanted 653 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 1: peace with France and England after he invaded Poland they're 654 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: the ones who like pushed for war. Courts secret treaty, 655 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: he invaded a whole country, guys like like anyway. It 656 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: also notes that every side in World War Two used 657 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 1: labor camps, So really, was the Holocaust so bad? I'm 658 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 1: starting to come around on this guy. Now, Mike Adams 659 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: didn't write that, but the search engine that he built 660 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: provides that is the third return when you search just 661 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 1: the word Hitler. So yeah, but I feel like if 662 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,760 Speaker 1: you search just the word Google in his search engine, 663 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: it would come back with like, was Hitler that bade Google? 664 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 1: I did not. I did not tragically try that one. Um, 665 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:41,800 Speaker 1: But that's the way it always kind of goes with 666 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 1: these folks who're like trying to create their own spaces 667 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: because they, like everyone else does this space is so terrible. 668 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: They create things like gab bit shoot and all that. 669 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: Then then it's just infested with exactly that sort of 670 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: search result, you know. Yeah, and and fucking Mike Adams 671 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: is the guy who built Google for Nazis. But if 672 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: you want some products that aren't for Nazis, check out 673 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: the products and services that support this podcast and our program. Uh, 674 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: they are not for Nazis. I don't even know what 675 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 1: ads they are. It might fucking be another coke industry's ad, 676 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 1: in which case that one kind is but the others 677 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: definitely not products. We're back. Oh boy, I'm just I'm 678 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: doing my best with these ad plugs. You guys, you're 679 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: doing here. Yeah, I think you're doing great. That was 680 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: so that was a great hey ad. It was one 681 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 1: in the first episode. I think you're doing great. Sense Yeah, gold, 682 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 1: thank you. A lot of people say you shouldn't even 683 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: mention nazis close to making an ad plug, but I 684 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: think that's cowardice now. On June eight, two nineteen, The 685 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,879 Speaker 1: Daily Beast published its first deep dive into natural news 686 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: dot com, the first one from a truly mainstream website. 687 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: The title was the new info Wars is a vitamin 688 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 1: site predicting the apocalypse. At the start of the article, 689 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: they point out a recent Natural News headline LGBT progressivism herrors. 690 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: Parents want to start physically maiming their own babies to 691 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 1: slice off all gender organs in the name of progressivism 692 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 1: and equality. The article is authored by Mike Adams, and 693 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: in it he writes the next esclaration of this war 694 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,280 Speaker 1: on biology, will I predict involved parents maiming their newborn 695 00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: infants by slicing off their penis and scrowed them shortly 696 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: after birth in order to rid the child of gender inequality. 697 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: So that why that don't any of these people bring 698 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: up like Barbie Dolls, Barbie and Ken dolls, like they 699 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 1: didn't have genitals. Why don't any of them bring that 700 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 1: up into their conspiracy, Like you're trying to normalize the 701 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: idea of not having the genitalia. Why not? Why would 702 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 1: you do that? I don't know, But why are you 703 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: giving these people free solutions? It's unfortunately something me and 704 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: George and do a lot. Yeah, we tend to give 705 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: punch up to the evils. So that article, as you 706 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 1: probably guess by the first bit, is not at all 707 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: him reporting on anyone actually suggesting that parents slice their 708 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 1: children's genitals off, but based on his prediction that parents 709 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: will start doing this because he's a maniac. Do you 710 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 1: think do you think that when circumcision was a thing 711 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: in in the Jewish community in the in the original tribes, 712 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 1: like seven thousand years ago, there were some people who 713 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: are like, man, here's what they're gonna do to you. Man, 714 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 1: They're gonna keep your penis on. That's why we gotta 715 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:41,760 Speaker 1: cut it. Off, like this whole reverse lunacy of conspiracy theories. 716 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: Do you think circumcision is cutting a penis off? I 717 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:50,479 Speaker 1: don't know, did they? Little way that? Very confused, There's 718 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 1: no way to know. What I will tell you is 719 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 1: that every protest I've been to, there is one confused 720 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 1: elderly man walking around with a sign talking about how 721 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 1: circumcision is evil, regardless about what protest is about. It 722 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 1: could be a Black Lives Matter march, it could be 723 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: a protest for pot legalization. There's gonna be an old 724 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: guy with a sign about how circumcision is evil, and 725 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 1: all of them are Joe Biden. Definitely run into advocates 726 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: in my protests. It's always confusing. Yeah, it's just like what, dude, 727 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 1: come on now. Also The Daily I should note that 728 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 1: The Daily Beast pointed out the article was punctuated by 729 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 1: a mid page sales pitch for organic broccoli sprout capsules. Okay, okay, 730 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, I sell that ship. Gotta sell that ship. 731 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 1: I could use a broccoli yeah, in pelform, the best 732 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: form for all medication. One day after the publication of 733 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 1: this article, the Beat Daily Beast article, which is really 734 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 1: quite good. Facebook band Natural News from their platform. This 735 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: followed bands from Google News, Apple, YouTube, Pinterest, and Twitter. 736 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 1: The band from Facebook came last, probably because Facebook is garbage, 737 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 1: but it is probably the band that will hurt Mike 738 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 1: the most. After being banned, Mike took to right wing 739 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: news site Gateway Pundit to claim that he was the 740 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: victim of a vast and sinister conspiracy. The title of 741 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 1: that article was tag team tech terrorism. Facebook deletes conservative 742 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: leaning Natural News after Daily Beast publisher is horribly sourced 743 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:22,240 Speaker 1: junk hit piece. According to Natural News founder Mike Adams, 744 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: the hit piece was so wildly inaccurate and horribly researched. 745 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 1: The details they published were so ridiculously fabricated that I've 746 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: never even heard of many of the accusations before. They 747 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: reported on actions by a previous owner several years ago. 748 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 1: Are nonprofit publishers public reports. I've never even taken a 749 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 1: salary from a nonprofit. They go on to note, it 750 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 1: certainly appears once again that liberal publishers are working with 751 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: Facebook to eliminate conservative voices online. Mike Adams added, it's 752 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: clearly coordinated. The timing was irrefutable. It's tag team rico terrorism. 753 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: I love the phrase tag team Rico terrorism, because what 754 00:44:55,680 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 1: does that mean? Ricos? So it's two Ricos. One of 755 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: them is outside the ring, the other ones inside the ring. Okay, okay, 756 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: So when you're in the middle of case, you get 757 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,320 Speaker 1: tagged out and there's a new judge who comes in. 758 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 1: Like if that like one Rico gets exhausted, they can 759 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: go to the side of the ring, and Rico just 760 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 1: gets tired. You can't, you know, your honor, I just, 761 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: I just I gotta take a break. I gotta take 762 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: a break your honor. We're gonna Yeah, you thought we 763 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 1: were done racketeering. Here's that. Yeah, that whole thing of 764 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 1: like people like they're tag teaming me. It's like that 765 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 1: in terms of wrestling rules, that's not really that much 766 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,800 Speaker 1: of a difference than you're just fighting one guy. Like 767 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 1: if the other guy's tax you, then it's a disqualification 768 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: according to the rules. But when like a group of 769 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 1: people complains about you being dangerous for half a decade 770 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 1: and nothing is done and finally a major news site 771 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 1: writes an article about you, and then Facebook caves that's 772 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 1: not tag teaming. No, that's chickens coming home to roost. Yeah, yeah, 773 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: pickens coming home to Russ and also chicken shit behavior 774 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,800 Speaker 1: on behalf of Facebook Now. After talking to Gateway pundit 775 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: Mike Next posted an angry response on Natural News, calling 776 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,319 Speaker 1: himself the victim of a smear campaign by techno fascists. 777 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 1: He unveiled a new graph which I should have sent 778 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 1: you guys, but didn't. It's just and yellow text at 779 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: the stop at the top it says enemies of humanity 780 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: then and it lists Adolph Hitler, Banita Mussolini, Joseph Stalin, 781 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 1: pol Pot, mousey Dung, and has all their pictures and 782 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: then underneath them and underneath the word now it has 783 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:37,800 Speaker 1: underneath Adolph Hitler, Mark Zuckerberg, underneath Banita Mussolini, Jack Dorsey 784 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 1: of Twitter, underneath Joseph Stalin, Jeff Bezos, Yeah, underneath pol Pot, 785 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:51,399 Speaker 1: Sundar Pacha. I we we're really running down the list quick. 786 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:58,399 Speaker 1: And underneath mousey dung, Tim Cook from Apple Tim Cook, 787 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,399 Speaker 1: and underneath Tim Cook is Nikolai Cho. For some reason 788 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:09,279 Speaker 1: imagining this as a graph, I I I love it's 789 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 1: an infographic. I'd say I love comparing Jack Dorsey to 790 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 1: Benito Mussolini, because that one kind of kind of kind 791 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 1: of work kind here that kind of spot the funk on. UH. 792 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: A few days after this, Mike went on Info Wars 793 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: and talked to Alex Jones about his fears that Congolese 794 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,240 Speaker 1: refugees at the border would be a bring a bola 795 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 1: into the United States. Yeah, we talked about that. We've, we've, 796 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 1: we've I have seamlessly sailed us into familiar waters to 797 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 1: drop you guys back off at your comfortable home. Um, 798 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:52,800 Speaker 1: because I am a great captain. In this article or 799 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: in this episode, uh, Mike Adams accused these fleeing people 800 00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: of being essentially a bioweapon, which is about a quarter 801 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,920 Speaker 1: inch away for literal Nazi propaganda in the twenties and 802 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,080 Speaker 1: thirties and how it represented Jewish refugees fleeing the Soviet Union. 803 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,719 Speaker 1: He didn't essentially call them a bio weapon. He literally, 804 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,320 Speaker 1: he straight up called them a bio weapon. Um. So 805 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 1: the guy who posted a recipe including drink some of 806 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:20,720 Speaker 1: boll of virus called other people of viral bio weapon. 807 00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So it's him putting up an infographic that 808 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: says enemies of humanity and like sites the greatest dictators 809 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 1: in history as monsters. Is humorous to me for that 810 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:37,319 Speaker 1: because he's basically making Nazi propaganda and also made Nazi google. Um. 811 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: But it's also a little bit I don't know. Humorous 812 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: is the wrong word to me. Uh, Mike Adams is 813 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: a war crimes denier. Is a Syrian war crimes denier. 814 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 1: That's that's that's the lead that I was awkwardly getting to. Uh. 815 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 1: In two thousand seventeen, after a chemical weapons attacked by 816 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: Charles Sad and Syrian civilians might quote it, a piece 817 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 1: of President Trump's addressed in a Natural News column, Assad 818 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 1: choked out the lives of innocent men and children. Was 819 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 1: a slow and brutal death for so many. Even beautiful 820 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,320 Speaker 1: babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. No 821 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 1: child of God should ever suffer such horror. That was 822 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 1: President Trump, And after quoting this, Mike Adams wrote, if 823 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 1: you replace the word Assad with c DC or the 824 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: vaccine industry, it all makes even more sense. Lastly, higher 825 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,240 Speaker 1: numbers of children right here in America have been cruelly 826 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 1: murdered in the barbaric attack of toxic vaccines than have 827 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:27,800 Speaker 1: ever been killed by chemical weapons in Syria. Ah. Yeah, 828 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 1: you gotta give it to a guy who swings for 829 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:41,400 Speaker 1: the fences. Yeah, Casey is at the bat. Yeah, Casey is. 830 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 1: Casey is eating the bat in order to gain its powers. 831 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what the funk that is. Um, that's 832 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: fuck you and Mike Adams. That's that's the whole that's 833 00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: all I've got. That's the whole fucking episode. Yeah, he does. 834 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 1: He does suck tremendously. He's a He's a real piece 835 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,000 Speaker 1: of shit. It's so weird that like so much of 836 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 1: his uh like the the actual like career damage that 837 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 1: he's done so much of that, like perpetuating the anti 838 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: vax dangerous health ideas, and then somehow has pivoted into 839 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 1: the like worst political ideas too. It's own both of 840 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:25,879 Speaker 1: those spaces. So like, seriously, they dove tell so well 841 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 1: into each other. Though, Like if you're and and it's 842 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: easy to use relative intelligence kind of words for it, 843 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:37,640 Speaker 1: But if you're susceptible to the kind of right wing 844 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,399 Speaker 1: rhetoric that gets you to hate random immigrants that you've 845 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: never met, that you have no concept of, why wouldn't 846 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,880 Speaker 1: you be at the same time be susceptible to buying 847 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:50,879 Speaker 1: pills that have cures for diseases that you've never heard 848 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 1: of her problems that you've never considered. You know, it's 849 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,160 Speaker 1: it's the it's the same kind of a short circuit 850 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: in your brain that allows you to believe in both 851 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 1: of those things so easily. Yeah, And I do want 852 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:05,480 Speaker 1: to return before we roll out to the kind of 853 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: question that I've been wondering throughout this research process, which 854 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 1: is like, why didn't anyone know about this guy until recently? 855 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: Like why didn't he get more attention while he was 856 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: doing all this? And I wonder if some of it's 857 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 1: just that, like if you watch him actually speak or 858 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 1: watch his videos, Like I came across a bunch of 859 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 1: his videos that I was going to include in this 860 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 1: because they had crazy titles about vaccine denial. He's so 861 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: fucking boring. Yeah, Like when he actually talks, he's so 862 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 1: fucking boring. He is the blandest man in the world. Yeah. 863 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:36,759 Speaker 1: But then when we go back to that idea of 864 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 1: like I want to trick people and thinking I'm poorer 865 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,880 Speaker 1: than I am, Yeah, that that boringness is kind of 866 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 1: a self defense And speaking for myself as someone who's 867 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: listened to thousands of hours of Alex's show, like I've 868 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 1: run into him, like co hosting the show often, and 869 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 1: whenever I do, I'm like off, Like, I'm sure that 870 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:59,239 Speaker 1: I could be more upset by him before. Um at 871 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: this point, had I've actually listened to the episodes the hosts, 872 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 1: but I just get five minutes in, Like, I'm not 873 00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: interested in you. I'm trying to learn about Alex. You're 874 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: so goddamn boring, I think self defense. Yeah, and not 875 00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,760 Speaker 1: just that, but his is a career built entirely upon 876 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 1: s e O, like, entirely upon keywords just so him 877 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: speaking behind the scene exactly, So him speaking would be 878 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 1: boring because he's not creating his search words while he's speaking. 879 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 1: He can't extemporaneously do that, and so he doesn't get 880 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,920 Speaker 1: any real traction from it. Fucking A. Yeah, I think 881 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 1: he's uh. I think he flies under the radar really well. Yeah, 882 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 1: well he has until Yeah, I mean he he definitely 883 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: did for a lot longer than Alex Jones. And I 884 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 1: think my nickname for him might be smart Alex Jones, yeah, 885 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 1: because that's essentially they had the same career path. He 886 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,919 Speaker 1: just was smart enough and like I guess not quite 887 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 1: as narcissistic because he didn't need to put himself out 888 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: in front of things as often, and as a result, 889 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 1: he made way more money and hasn't been sued by people. Yeah, 890 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: so hopefully he will though, Yeah he should be. Yeah, 891 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 1: when you're when you at least have a good thirty 892 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: or steak and a lot of people dyeing of preventable diseases, 893 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:22,760 Speaker 1: it feels like you should have some sort of karmic 894 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 1: reckoning coming somewhere along the line. And he openly doesn't 895 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 1: give a shit about karma, So there's that. Yeah, I 896 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 1: mean karmen Karma doesn't pay the fucking bills. Jordan's don't 897 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 1: pay You're you're telling the choir here on this. You 898 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:41,400 Speaker 1: know what you know what pays the bills is vaccine zombie. Yes, 899 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: the ads do pay the bills. In my case, I 900 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:48,279 Speaker 1: thought that was an amazing ad pivot there. No, no, 901 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 1: I mean, my karma is terrible, but it's because of 902 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,319 Speaker 1: that cemetery. We don't need to get into that. Um 903 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:56,879 Speaker 1: do you think he's ever made money off that rep song? 904 00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:00,800 Speaker 1: Do you think he's made a cent off that? God? 905 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. The site says it only has twenty 906 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: six views, which can't be so what weird twelve of them? Yeah, 907 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 1: that that can't be accurate because it also it hasn't 908 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 1: changed since I viewed it multiple times. I think they've 909 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:21,959 Speaker 1: view counter is just broken. Yeah, like I The first 910 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 1: comment on it is somewhere I just scrolled down to 911 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 1: the comments.
