Well, I'm wearing my award robe and 12 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm carrying my awards staff. But it's become clear to 13 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: me that this is not, in fact an award. No, 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: that's not what Sketch Fest means. Yeah, I know. I 15 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: was shocked to learn it too. I think they're expecting 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: me to perform an episode of Behind the Bastards. Yeah, yeah, yeah, No, 17 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 1: this is a real problem. This is a real problem. Thankfully, 18 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: I keep next to my heart a podcast script for 19 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: emergencies at all times, but we're gonna need a guest, 20 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: and I just don't have anyone booked.

Yeah, we 22 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: have a I'm here at the Gateway Theater and we've 23 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: had a horrible attack of airborne syphilis. Start moaning. Come on, 24 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: give me, give me, give me some moans. Oh yeah, no, 25 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: it's bad. You need to get a doctor down here immediately. 26 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: Can we get a doctor sent into the theater? Doctor 27 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: kave Hoda, Thank you for coming on such short notice, 28 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: Doctor Hoda. I heard there was an uncontrollable amount of 29 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: syphilis here. That is the case, but we can ignore 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: that the actual and I called nine one one was 31 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: because I have a script and I need some help 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: reading it. No, you view. I know it's not the 33 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: first time, and it won't be the last that I 34 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: use nine one one for my own purposes. But can 35 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: I take this white coat off I haven't worn this night. 36 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: It's actually quite hot up here. I'll keep the podcasting staff, 37 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: I'll keep the podcasting picture out of the knife. Yeah 38 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: you lend me. Yeah. Now I'm in my much more 39 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: normal outfit of my shoot dope. Fuck the cops hoodie, 40 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: which I own, mainly because wearing this hoodie through the 41 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: TSA checkpoint is quite a bit of fun. You have, 42 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: you have a different experience every time in every country. Kabe, 43 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: how are you doing today? Man? I am so glad 44 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: to be here. There's nobody and no crowd. I would 45 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: rather get an airborne disease from than you. Oh no, 46 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: this is of all the crowds to get an airborne 47 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: disease from, this is in the top three or four. Yeah, 48 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: that area over there is particularly questionable. Over there, I 49 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: find them. They definitely have something, and it's okay because 50 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: it's worth it. I think this is this is worth 51 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: the risk speaking of people who probably have some sort 52 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:19,839 Speaker 1: of disease. Actually, you know, I say that I kind 53 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: of brought you all here on false pretenses because normally 54 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: this is a podcast about the very worst people in 55 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: all of history. But every now and then we talk 56 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: about a hero, and today we're talking about the man 57 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: who might be my hero. Do you know who Brian 58 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: Johnson is. Well, he might be better known by his 59 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: other name, the Liver King. Oh that's oh yeah, oh yeah. 60 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: We got a lot of videos. We got a lot 61 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: of videos cued up for you. Motherfucker's so strapping. Okay, wait, wait, 62 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: first of all, let me explain to the crowd who 63 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: may not know me, even though I am the San 64 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: Franciscan and you should fucking know me by now. But 65 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: it is a small town. It is a small town. 66 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: But I am a liver doctor. I am a jogist. 67 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: So the fact that some guy had the gall to 68 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: call himself the liver King when I was a fucking 69 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: round is is apollo. It is. There's a lot that 70 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: will be appalling about this episode, but we got to 71 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: get into it because time is of the understand So. 72 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: Brian Johnson, which is the Liver King's real name, was 73 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: born on April seventh, nineteen seventy seven, in San Antonio, Texas. 74 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: Probably basically all the information we have this guy on 75 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: this guy about his early life comes from interviews that 76 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: he gave or comments he made on various grindset influencer podcasts. 77 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: He is a professional liar, so this should all be 78 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: taken with a grain of salt. Now. Brian has claimed 79 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: that his father died when he was young, which left 80 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: him without strong male guidance for years and contributed to 81 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: feelings of insecurity that were exacerbated by the bullying of 82 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: other kids at his school. Yeah, that may or may 83 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: not be true. There's some speculation and on Reddit that 84 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: he had family money as the result of a furniture store, 85 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: and there is a prominent Texas, Louisiana furniture chain named Johnson, 86 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: but that's also a pretty common name. Yeah, he seems 87 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: like he'd be involved with like wood. Yeah, it seems 88 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: like there's what he does. He does have the skin 89 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: texture of a nice piece of cured oak. So Brian 90 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: himself makes two claims about his childhood. The first is 91 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: that he was bullied constantly. He describes his life as 92 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: a kid as a living hell, adding I was the 93 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: only one of my kind at my school. I think 94 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: that means short person, which doesn't seem likely. I made 95 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 1: matters to make matters worse for myself. I was undersized, 96 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: I look funny. I did. I looked funny. I didn't 97 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: have a single friend, and I had absolutely no concept 98 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: of self worth with Chay, I got bullied too as 99 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: a kid. That does sound rough. He got the you know, 100 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: says that he got beat up a lot, but he 101 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: also again, I don't know how much to believe this 102 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: guy's claims. But the other thing that he claimed that 103 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: he makes about his childhood is that he was an 104 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: entrepreneur from a very young age. He recalls as one 105 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: of his formative events going door to door to sell 106 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: newspapers with his friends, with his friend Peter. I'm gonna 107 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: quote from Brian here. I remember Peter's pitch. He would 108 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: knock on the door and go, excuse me, ma'am. You're 109 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: currently subscribed to the San Antonio Light. We would like 110 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: for you to renew your subscription. All you have to 111 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: do is pay for Sunday. They'd say, oh, hey, you've 112 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: called me. This isn't going to work out. We're not 113 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: going to renew. And Peter would say, ma'am, can we 114 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: come in and get a glass of water? And you 115 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: know then he'd say, ma'am, we're little kids. We're just 116 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: trying to make a buck. Do you think you could 117 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: help us out? And almost all of the time it 118 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: worked out. So there you go. Yeah, from a start, 119 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: can we stop for a second. That's a lot of 120 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: paper in your hand. It is a lot of paper. 121 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 1: Were doing all of that? No? No, I printed two 122 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: copies in case I lost one. I drink very heavily 123 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: at the airport. Oh my goodness, I got it because 124 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: I fly. Yeah, yeah, you fly. I know. It's there's 125 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: only one way to fly, and that's scammered. Yea yeah, 126 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: so uh yeah. If Brian is a reliable source on 127 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: his life and he is not, at some point in 128 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: his adolescence he started lifting weights. He tells a few 129 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: versions of this story, and one he was bullied, but 130 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: the fact that he was bullied was a good thing. 131 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: And this is something that he says because it acted 132 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: as a catalyst that allowed him to impose his will, 133 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: his words on his body by lifting weights. Um, which 134 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: is an odd way to describe getting in shape. But 135 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: I guess, you know, so he was a bully. Yeah. 136 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: My guess is that maybe some of this was turned 137 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: around in reality and he was like those other kids 138 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: by bullying them. You're not going to feel less like 139 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: that after this quote, because here's what he says about 140 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: getting jacked as a teenager. That was my right of 141 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: passage and it changed me and forged me into the 142 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: evolutionary hunter, the unrelenting fighter, the serial ancestral entrepreneur that 143 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: I am today. Because everyone knows the cavemen, the reason 144 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: the Cavemen beat the Neanderthals as they were better at 145 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: getting VC funding. Everyone in San Francisco knows that, yeah, obviously, 146 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: so The other, more believable version of the story is 147 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: that his mom started dating a guy who had a 148 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: weight set and Brian started using it and got results. 149 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: So this guy bought him a bench in some weights 150 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: and that was it. Soon Brian was jacked, and he 151 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: noticed that girls at school started paying more attention to 152 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: him instead of making fun of him, other boys were jealous. 153 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: The defining moment of his adolescence bear with me here, 154 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: was when one of his friends compared him to Mark Wahlberg, 155 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: a statement that he says, probably changed my life forever. 156 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: And wow, yeah, you shouldn't want to be compared to Mark. No. Look, 157 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: I'm very pro people, you know, getting bit if that's 158 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: what they want to do. But don't don't be like 159 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg. Nobody needs Mark Wahlberg. Should be less like 160 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg. We have one photo from him of him 161 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: from his late teens or early twenties, and he is 162 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: indeed quite swollen. The photo shows him standing beside a 163 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: swimming pool of what I guess is a fairly large 164 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: house in the North Texas suburbs. Savor this last photo 165 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: of him, Well, that's an likely he's in good shape, 166 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: but he doesn't look That's not like a guy who's 167 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: on the shitload of gear or anything. He's not. He's 168 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: clearly has no like hair on his body, which I 169 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: find Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean that is a little 170 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: bit odd. But I grew up in Texas too, I 171 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: get it. You gotta do what you gotta do to 172 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: stay cool down there. Okay, So but that's you know, 173 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: he's in very good shape, but he's a pretty normal 174 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 1: looking person. I would say, like obviously extremely fit, but 175 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: not as he will become someone who was very clearly 176 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: putting a car worth of steroids into his body every 177 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: single month. So after he got swoll, Brian started taking 178 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: school more seriously. He got into Texas Tech, a pretty 179 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: good school where he got pretty good grades. He got 180 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: a degree in biochemistry, or, as he said it in 181 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: another interview, a degree in biology and chemistry. I think 182 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: it is a biokimbs. So he got his bachelor's. He 183 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: said he was gunning for a medical degree at some point, 184 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: and in one interview with BuzzFeed, he claimed that he 185 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 1: got into a medical school but dropped out during orientation. No, no, no, 186 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: that's not a thing. That's this is journalism. We're doing 187 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: research live. You don't do that. I mean you drop 188 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: out later, but you don't drop out during orientation. You 189 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: stick around and you have the parties, and you go 190 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: through the whole thing, and you tell undergrads I'm in 191 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: medical school. And then later you drop out. But you 192 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: don't like to do it during orientation. That's well a 193 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: ways a serial liar. Um, and he does. He claims that. 194 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: So at age twenty one, he says he started working 195 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: for the pharmaceutical industry as a sales rep. He says 196 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: they scouted him. Um, this is all questionable. Um, I 197 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: don't know, but you know, he says his career as 198 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: a pharmaceutical sales rep quickly led to a lucrative six 199 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: figure salary, which is possible. And if it's possible, there's 200 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: only one product. I think he was probably pushing in 201 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: those years. Given the time. For sure, this guy was 202 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: selling pills. Oh dick pills. I was gonna say opiates. 203 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, No, for sure he did that too. Yep, yeah, yep, yep, yeah. Um, 204 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: we can I ask you a question, real quick episode, 205 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: So he came from would you say modest means or 206 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: would you say I think he came from like an 207 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: upper middle class to like rich background, but it is unclear. Okay, 208 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: just real early photos of him, like wait, I'm sorry, 209 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: hold on, there's a bingo? Did you? Did? You? Guys 210 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: bring your card? Unbelievable slackers, weak fans. The liver King 211 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: would never hold on a second, someone born on third 212 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 1: pretending their self made. Sorry, I'm just checking that off 213 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: right now because I feel like that one, it's gonna 214 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: go down. Yeah. Having come from a similar area to 215 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: where this photo was taken, that's not a tiny house 216 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: back yard, Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, sorry, those are 217 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: more common in Texas. But yeah, I'm gonna guess up 218 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: for medal class at least um. So Brian meets Barbara, 219 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: his future wife, in two thousand and four, maybe he's 220 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: gonna lie a lot about the year two thousand and four, 221 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: So keep that in your head now. He says he 222 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: was a pretty aimless guy at this point. He was 223 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: snowballing and surfing and by his own admission, refusing to 224 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: flush toilets in public restrooms. I don't know why he 225 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: gives that detail. I don't know why he gives that detail, 226 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: but he does because there's a drought. Because he was 227 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 1: ever acted as if there's a drought. That is not 228 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: something we do that. I can remember the last summer 229 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: I was there, it didn't rain for eighty days and 230 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: had like more than one hundred and fifteen degree temperatures 231 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: for each of those days, and everyone's lawn was green. 232 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: Some of them were on fire, but they were green. So, yeah, 233 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: he meets this He meets this broad Barbara in maybe 234 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: around two thousand and four, and he says that this 235 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: is what convinced him to get more serious about his life. 236 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: And I do think she had an influence on him. 237 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: Most sources will note that she was a dentist, which 238 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: is kind of true, but not all the way true, 239 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: because what she actually is is a holistic dentist. Yeah, 240 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: that's the good stuff. Everybody's tasting that, getting that flavor in. 241 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: Huh Yeah. Yeah. So they open a practice together. He's 242 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 1: her business manager and she handled the dentistry. Now, Cobb, it, 243 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: I know what you're wondering right now. What is a 244 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: holistic dentist? Yeah? I absolutely am It means treating your 245 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: patient's teeth and gums with a whole body approach, viewing 246 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: their overall physical and psychological state, rather than just keeping 247 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: your eyes on their mouth. Now, that could be a thing. Yeah, 248 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: it might be a thing. There's stuff where like tooth 249 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: pain like can be a sign of a heart attack 250 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: or something. It can be referred right, like, that's a thing. 251 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: I learned that on Frasier. Are you gonna tell me 252 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: that that? Niles Crane Like, to me, you're thinking like 253 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: left arm pain not usually is like cavity like not what? 254 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: That's not what? Season five A Frasier said, Well, I 255 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 1: mean I'm not going to go against Freck and Frasier 256 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: fucking guys. So this this might make casual sense, um, 257 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: but no, a holistic dentistry is more or less nonsense. 258 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: So here's the thing. A holistic dentist is not an 259 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: actual professional medical term. It is a term any dentists 260 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: can choose to call themselves without any additional formal training. 261 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: Most holistic dentists suppose the use of fluoridated toothpaste, which 262 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 1: is dumb and unscientific. They also have a tendency to 263 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: urge patients to replace cavity fillings made with amalgam on 264 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: the logic that that contains mercury and is unhealthy. Now, 265 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: amalgam has been replaced by a lot of dentists with 266 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: better options, but all dentists will agree that if you 267 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: have perfectly good fillings, it is an ethical for someone 268 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: to tell you to take those out and put in 269 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: new ones for no reason, which is what holistic dentists 270 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: do a lot. It's not great. Now. More fucked up 271 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: is the fact that holistic dentists tend to obsess over 272 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: stuff like detoxification, which is not a thing, and urge 273 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: their patients to take up weird, bespoke diets to fix 274 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: their teeth. Traditionally, vegan diets were advised, which is at 275 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: least probably not unhealthy. You can have a perfectly healthy 276 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: vegan diet, but nowadays a lot of them have gone 277 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: for the carnivore diet, which is a little bit more problematic. 278 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: Let me just real quick, hold on, I wasn't expecting 279 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: to get to this so early in the episode. Okay, okay, okay, 280 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: what are we hitting? Unqualified medical advice and I I'm 281 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: just gonna just get this one out of the way now. 282 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: Makes cove sad. Yeah. Oh, this next one's gonna make 283 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: you a lot sadder, because I want to quote from 284 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: an article on holistic dentistry by McGill University. You guys 285 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: might remember from the CIA episodes. Um, that's exactly right, 286 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: that's where all those horrible experiments were held. Good here, 287 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 1: whoever that was, you're you're jetting this if we're hitting 288 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: them all today. Baby, These practitioners don't believe in doing 289 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: root canals, alleging serious health risk by sealing bacteria at 290 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: root end while opting for ineffective therapy or extraction. Some 291 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: recommend removing perfectly functional, asymptomatic teeth with root canals and 292 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: replacing them with more biocompatible and costly implants. No, that's problematic. Now. 293 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't know precisely what kind of wushit Barbara got into, 294 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: but based on the information we have, I kind of 295 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: suspect that Brian's interest in alternative medicine starts when they 296 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: get married, because she is professionally into it, and he's 297 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: going to get increasingly into it as he grows older. Now, 298 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: about five years in Brian and Barbara owned the building 299 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: that their practice was in and they were making, by 300 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: Brian's claims, about five million a year in revenue from 301 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: this and a couple of other businesses that Brian had started. 302 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: We don't know what all of those businesses were, but 303 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: by the late oughts he had started selling nutritional supplements. 304 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: Now that's an industry that never causes bastards, right, the 305 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: supplement industry. It's well regulated, it's not entirely a con 306 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: run by the State of Utah. It's all good stuff. Sarcasm, 307 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: that sarcasm. I know. Brian's primary business was ancestral supplements, 308 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: and it seems to have started in twenty sixteen, although 309 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: the first way back machine capture of it's in twenty 310 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: seventeen and lensk There we go, can we get that 311 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: picture up? There we go? So this is what they're selling. 312 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 1: These are pills of grass fed beef organs now from 313 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,959 Speaker 1: New Zealand. Well, of course, the best cows come from 314 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: New Zealand, and the best organs come from the best cows. 315 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: And the best way to eat organs is in a pill. 316 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: That's how I eat my organs. So this product was 317 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: built as a way to get the massive health benefits 318 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: of eating organ meat without showing down on all of 319 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 1: those pesky organs. Here is how the website described the 320 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: benefits of eating organs. Traditional people's, Native Americans and early 321 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: ancestral healers knew that eating the organs from a healthy 322 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 1: animal would strengthen and support the health of the corresponding 323 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: organ of the individual. For instance, the traditional way of 324 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: treating a person with a weak heart was to feed 325 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 1: the person the heart of a healthy animal. Similarly, eating 326 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 1: the kidneys of a healthy animal was believed to support 327 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: urine ailments and overall kidney health. Pancreas was fed to 328 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: people with digestive problems, and spleen was fed to people 329 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: with immune and blood deficiencies. What so, people, how many 330 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: organs should I be eating every day? Is my question? 331 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 1: This is where I'm gonna for a moment, if I 332 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: could have a real moment with you, for a little 333 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: education on something. Whenever you hear a medical type thing, 334 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: whether it's like Gwyneth Paltrow or the Liver King, and 335 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: they use the words ancestral or ancient and they're trying 336 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: to sell you something, it is automatically known to be bullshit. 337 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: It is like the top tower Tower isn't ancestral. It 338 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: is not ancestral. It's not it's not. I mean, that 339 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,640 Speaker 1: is a selling point that drives me fucking crazy every 340 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: time I hear it. Yeah, the reality like organ meets 341 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: have a lot of valuable nutrients send them um, But 342 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 1: also eating a ton of meat has a lot of 343 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: health consequences to you as well. That's correct. Yeah, in like, well, 344 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: I'm sure we're going to get into this. Yeah, fucking 345 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: ad nauseum. But like, well, all meat diet is not 346 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,719 Speaker 1: what I would have amend you say that. But I 347 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: have a quote here about how all of this nourishing 348 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: tradition is backed by science. And this is a very 349 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: science e quote. Radioisotopic labeling studies and animals have shown 350 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: conclusively that when eaton organs and glands selectively travel to 351 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: the corresponding organs and glands and high concentrations now covet. 352 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: This research done at the University of Scotland and Edinburgh, 353 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: lends credence to the ancient practice of eating animal organs 354 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: to help ensure health and once corresponding organs. And that's 355 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: from doctor Ron Schmidt. Indeed, never heard of him. It's 356 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: absolute horror. Do not know what an India is like, 357 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: I've heard of it and you're making me so sad, yeah, 358 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: so angry, and it's just you know, I swear it's 359 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: not all I mean. I could have made so much 360 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: more money. You could. You could have made a lot 361 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: more We both could have made a lot more money. 362 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: My retirement plan is to just say I've been canceled 363 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 1: and start working for I don't know, Stephen Crowder or somebody. So, 364 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: um comment, would it help you out to know that 365 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 1: doctor Ron Schmidt was a natural path and militant raw 366 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 1: milk activists. I found his obituary from twenty seventeen and 367 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: it notes he covered in depth the difficult history of 368 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: raw milk in the US, arguing that even though raw 369 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: milk was responsible for many illnesses during the eighteen hundreds 370 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: and early nineteen hundreds, it was also unfairly savaged by 371 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: the emerging pasteurized milk industry. To eliminate raw milk is 372 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: a competitive threat. Ye. Look, yes, thousands of babies shot 373 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 1: themselves to death, but but what about the pasteurized milk industry? 374 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: What about big milk? So the first version of the 375 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: ancestral Supplement's website doesn't make a huge deal about liver, 376 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: but it does call it the body super food and 377 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: Nature's this is funny only meaningful source of vitamin A. 378 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: You can't get it anywhere else if you're not eating liver. Now, Tomatoes, 379 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: kail eggs, cantle, open fish oils, that's all have a 380 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: lot of vitamin A in them. Carrots have betakerotene, which 381 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: is which is a precursor to vitamin A. More to 382 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: the point, vitamin A deficiency is a serious health condition, 383 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: but it pretty much doesn't exist in the United States 384 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: outside of weirdos who have weird diets. Um not all 385 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: weirds some people. Obviously there's actual health conditions, but it's 386 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: extremely important. It's more of a thing in like parts 387 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: of the world that have less access to a good 388 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: food supply and people are like legitimately starving. I don't 389 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: like it when you know medicine like that. Well, I know, 390 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: I know lots of medicine. I feel uncomfortable when you're 391 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: like right about I'm I'm I'm stuff. I'm an expert 392 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: on all sorts of medicine. Stuff I hate too hates sorry. 393 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: I am a reverend doctor Jersey, I am an actual 394 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: doctor who is or why Universal Life Church I am 395 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: a reverend doctor. This guy is it's a fucking podcaster. Well, 396 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 1: I will just say, have Coves sign an autograph for 397 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: you after the show, and then just write vicot and 398 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 1: on that fucker and you're good to go. He found 399 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: the loophole. That's probably how it works, right yeah. Um anyway, 400 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: so uh yeah, Obviously vitamin a efficiency is serious when 401 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: it exists, but it basically doesn't exist in the United States. 402 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 1: That said, eating too much vitamin a can cause horrible 403 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: health problems. This is almost impossible to do if you 404 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: are a person who eats a diet that is vaguely 405 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: recognizable as a normal diet. Um. Again, if you're getting 406 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: your vitamin a the place most people get it from 407 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: fruits and vegetables and like eggs and stuff, you're not 408 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: gonna get too much vitamina him in a like. Overdoses 409 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: occur exclusively in people who take too many supplements, and 410 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: symptoms can include migraines, blurred vision, nausea, dizziness, and a 411 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: lack of coordination because your nervous system starts to kill itself. Ish, 412 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: that's broadly accurate. That's a board question. Good. So, despite 413 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: all this, Brian's business was a huge success. He entered 414 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: the supplement game just at the height of Alex Jones's business, 415 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: and he seems to have taken some moods. Sorry, I'm sorry. 416 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Like I said, we're hitting them all. Baby. 417 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: I don't want him to see, but you guys can 418 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: see it. I don't know if you guys can see. 419 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 1: And for people listening at home, I'm sorry. You know what, 420 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: I also want to stay. You know, normally we'll be 421 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: obviously putting this up on the podcast feed. Normally we 422 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: do ad breaks, and this is where the ad break 423 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: will go. But since y'all aren't going to hear an ad, 424 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to give you an ad. I wasn't paid 425 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: for for a product that I this is just for 426 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: a thing I think people should buy. So this is 427 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: called a flipper zero. Has anybody ever heard of these 428 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 1: motherfucking things. So this is a device that lets you 429 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: that lets you basically like scan and replicate infrared and 430 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: other kind of different like signals that like remotes and 431 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 1: stuff you. So one thing you can do with this 432 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: is a say or at cees and say you are 433 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 1: harassing the irrepresentatives at their booth. You can from your 434 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: pocket repeatedly turn off all of their televisions. Theoretically someone 435 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: could do this. Another thing you can theoretically do with 436 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 1: a flipper zero available now on Amazon dot com. Can 437 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: I Tell You is open the charging ports of every 438 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: on every street you walk back. That's what he does. 439 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: You can theoretically do with a flipper zero. That's what 440 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: he uses it for. Fuck with my car. People have 441 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 1: also figured out how to use him to shut off 442 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: those robot dogs. So they're pretty cool and they're not 443 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: going to be legal forever. Pick one up if you can. 444 00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: Back to the show. So Brian's business is a huge hit. 445 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: And yeah, one of the key things about if you're 446 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: selling these kind of health products is you have to 447 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: either terrify people into believing that your products are the 448 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: only thing that will stop their body from falling apart, 449 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: or you have to convince them that you alone can 450 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: give them the body of their dreams. Now, Brian knew 451 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: that if he wanted to take his business to the 452 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: next level, he was going to have to do one 453 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,919 Speaker 1: of these things, so he decided to do both. In 454 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 1: early twenty twenty one thereabouts, Brian contacted one DS Collective, 455 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: which is a social media marketing firm for influencers. Now, 456 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: because these are some of the worst people on planet Earth. 457 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: They describe their business as quote a collective of global 458 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: creatives who specialize in social snackable media. Does anyone else 459 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: get like a visceral gut reaction when you hear snackable media? 460 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: It's unreal, Great folks, it was from this collaboration that 461 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: the idea of the liver would be born. One BuzzFeed 462 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: article explains, he approached us because he wanted guidance, said 463 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: Sam Parham, a director at influencer marketing and management agency 464 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: one DS Collective, which specializes in video production and brand 465 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: management for social media. One DS began filming the brand 466 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: of liver King, creating short form video content to capture 467 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 1: Johnson's extreme lifestyle. Johnson and DS have maintained that their 468 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: primary goal in building a liver King social media brand 469 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: was to spread the ancestral message rather than to sell 470 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: Johnson's products. One DS called Johnson the leader of the 471 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 1: ship and solely responsible for his likeness in brand, which 472 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: is a good legal idea. Now, the ancestral message here 473 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: was that people needed to eat hoof to tail. This 474 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: is fine, like look I raise in slaughter livestock. If 475 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: you're going to be doing that, you should, in fact 476 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: use every single part of that animal. That's a fine 477 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: idea in practice. But what Brian is doing is just 478 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 1: trying to get people to buy supplements made from ground 479 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: up organs. He bought cast off from cattle somewhere. The 480 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,400 Speaker 1: stroke of brilliance that one DS had was to convince 481 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: people organ meat was good for them by having a 482 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: massively jacked dude eat raw liver and guts on camera 483 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: repeatedly and then credit that for his giant muscles. Now again, 484 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: organ meats perfectly healthy. There's a lot of good reasons 485 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: to eat it, but it doesn't work that. It doesn't 486 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: just magically make you jack. There is nothing that is 487 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: particularly healthy about it. Brian had up to this point 488 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: built his physique the way most muscular men do. He 489 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: had eaten huge amounts of way protein and lean meat 490 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: while working out right and you know, careful about his diet, 491 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: not drinking all that good stuff. But one DS decided 492 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 1: if Brian, the thing to do was to have Brian 493 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: chow down on raw organs, and that would make people 494 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: want to copy him. Right, But eating raw organs sucks, 495 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: So when they couldn't do that, then they would buy 496 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: his supplements. That's the business plan, right. It is unclear 497 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: who came up with the name liver King. There's evidence 498 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: that Brian had used the name in emails for a 499 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: couple of years, so probably him. But the folks at 500 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 1: one DS figured out everything else, including naming his fandom 501 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: before it existed, as this case study from their website 502 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: makes clear. Can we get the next image? Oh yeah, 503 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: oh yeah. Now, now I'm gonna point something out. If 504 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: y'all aren't real steroid heads, what you got going on 505 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: there in the belly region is what they call bubble gut, 506 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 1: and it's a mix of taking human growth hormone with 507 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: usually insulin. It's a thing bodybuilders do. It helps them 508 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: like pump up and stuff. But it's not a thing 509 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: that just happens normally. But those are not normal. If 510 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: their abs look like they are smuggling Boa constrictors under 511 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: their skin, what would you call those like areas right 512 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: there on the exterior of his six packs? Well, those 513 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: are normally your obliques. Okay, yeah, what else do people 514 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: call those? Oh, on the other side of his abs? No, 515 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: Like that area right there that deep area in which 516 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: there could pool fluid, for example, what would you call that? 517 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. Comma, what come gutters? Thank you for 518 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: fuck say? I can't believe it. I can't believe it. 519 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. He wasn't a guy playing a guitar and 520 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: a weird I only recognize cum gutters if they make 521 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: me want to come. So that's obviously David Koresh. I'm 522 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: going to tell you guys right now, I don't want 523 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: you to look like that. I don't know. That's not normal. 524 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: This is not anyway. Look, so I think it's interesting 525 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: to look at the way they talk about this here, 526 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: Like they name what he's going to call his fan 527 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: base is primals, because he's doing this whole like back 528 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: to nature, caveman eating things, So that's what he's going 529 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: to call his people. The way in which this is 530 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: all laid out, if you want to really lose your 531 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: faith or just get angry at humanity, go to the 532 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: one DS website and look at their whole plan for 533 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: making the Liver King a brand phenomenon. Because we'll talk 534 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: about this more, but part of what they're doing here 535 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: is everybody's agreeing to make money by having this man 536 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: destroy his heart, which is I don't feel that sympathetic 537 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: for Brian, but that is what's happening here. So one 538 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: DS does not rag about this on their website. But 539 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: one of the things that Brian had to set up 540 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: before he became the Liver King was a backstory as 541 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: fraudulent as it was convincing to the kind of people 542 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: who make healthcare decisions based on what a large man 543 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: with a TikTok tells them. So he decided to do 544 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: this by claiming his sons had suffered largely unspecified health problems. 545 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: He claims that they started having allergies around two thousand 546 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: and four. Now this is odd because his oldest son, 547 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: Striker with a Why oh Jess, wait, Jess Waite, you 548 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: haven't had heard a son's name yet. His oldest son's 549 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: Striker is fifteen, and his youngest son, Rad is thirteen. 550 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: He would only be better if one of his kids 551 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: was named like Killer. Look, look, I gotta say it 552 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: right now. This is San Francisco, so it's appropriate to 553 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: do it. I am taking away Elon's Musk's worst at 554 00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: naming a baby trophy. I would rather have whatever we're 555 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: fucking there we go, Oh, we're okay, we're on there too. 556 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: I would rather be named whatever a weird equation his 557 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: kid is named than Striker or rat unbelievable rad. So 558 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: again he's lying about this because he says that, like 559 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: they started having allergies when they were like in around 560 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: two thousand and four Strikers fifteen. This would mean that like, uh, yeah, 561 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: his oldest son wasn't. Yeah, None of the timeline actually 562 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: like works out here, And the fact that he lies 563 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: about the timeline is consistent with the fact that he 564 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: lies about everything. He doesn't meet his wife until two 565 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: thousand and four, so there's no way he would have 566 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: had a kid old enough that he was noticing this 567 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: problem anyway. As he claims, Striker spelled like the Armored 568 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: Personnel Carrier had serious health problems as a young kid 569 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: that Brian attributed to do you know what Panda's is? 570 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: Pa n das? Oh boy, god damn, you're making me 571 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: go way back into pediatrics. I don't. Yeah, it's this easily, 572 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,719 Speaker 1: remember it. We're going to try not to get too 573 00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: much into the weeds here. It is an ailment that 574 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: may or may not exist a pediatric The symptoms definitely exist. 575 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: There's a debate as to whether or not it should 576 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: be categorized in the way that some people categorize it. 577 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: A pediatrician first described PANDUS clinically in nineteen ninety eight, 578 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: and it was an attempt to explain that there seems 579 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: to be an association between strep throat OCD and tipped 580 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: disorders like Tourette syndrome. Doctors have for a very long 581 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: time recognized some connection between streptococcal infection and tremors or convulsions. 582 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: This is what people Saint Vitus's dance was like. This 583 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: is a thing that has been recognized for a while, 584 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: and some parents notice it occurring alongside a rapid change 585 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: in personality on behalf of the child. Doctors who are 586 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: skeptical of PANDUS as a diagnosis will note that stuff 587 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: like OCD can seem like it comes on suddenly and 588 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: changes a kid's personality, and that since kids get strep 589 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: throat like crazy, the fact that some of these kids 590 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: have strep diagnoses recently doesn't mean there's a causitive relation. 591 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 1: This is all heavily debated. I'm not taking aside on 592 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: this one. Where Yeather, there's a legitimate debate. Here you 593 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: can find science, scientists and doctors talking on both side 594 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: of this. But the problem occurs because a group of 595 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: activist parents have kind of latched onto pandas as a 596 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,239 Speaker 1: way to explain any behavior they find problematic in their 597 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: kid in various naturopathic websites and discussion forums. The list 598 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: of triggers for pandas has grown from STREPP, which is 599 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: the thing that there's some evidence for, to lyme disease, 600 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 1: mono and herpies. They've also added anorexia, autism, and ADHD 601 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: to the list of illnesses it causes, and there's no 602 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: scientific basis for this. These parents are well known for 603 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: embracing bizarre cult remedies. Some of them give their kids 604 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: uh rituximab, which is an immunosuppressant mostly used for cancer patients. 605 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: And you probably shouldn't give your kid just because they 606 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: have like a tick. The whole thing Togeah, probably shouldn't 607 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: just be handing that to kids. This can kill children 608 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,719 Speaker 1: and has in the past. More often. The prescriptions are 609 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: just ridiculous. One Oklahoma based company sells donkey milk as 610 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 1: a PANDAS treat that makes sense, which is Okay, I'm 611 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: fine with that. Give your kids docky milk. That's that's 612 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: all right. I mean that's like the least awful thing. Yeah, 613 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: probably not going to do any harm. Yeah, give him 614 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: some docky milk, they'll be okay. So Brian claims that 615 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: his son's pant strikers panda's eventually got so bad that 616 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: he walked up to his dad with a baseball bat 617 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: and said he wanted to bash his brains in rather 618 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: than deal with intrusive thoughts. Now that like, that's a 619 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 1: that's a serious thing. I have a loved one who 620 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: has intrusive thoughts as a result of OCD, and this 621 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: specific anecdote is the closest to a thing Brian has 622 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 1: said that I believe like that is a thing that occurs. 623 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that it's caused by pandas or whatever, 624 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: and it doesn't mean that the rest of what he 625 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 1: says is true, but that is a thing that happens 626 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 1: in videos made since he became the liver King. Brian 627 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: claims this is what prompted him to reevaluate everything he 628 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: knew about nutrition. He was feeding his kids a normal 629 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: American diet, but when he switched there in the family's 630 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: diet to primal foods, most mostly a mix of raw 631 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: organ's bone, marrow and maple syrup. All of there. Why 632 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,479 Speaker 1: that's not what are you guys ee? The maple serve 633 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: helps to go down and this is where things get 634 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: problematic for Brian. He says all of their health problems start, 635 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: and his children started to have a personality, which is 636 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 1: kind of an offensive way to refer to somebody who 637 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: has OCD. Like now, this leaves us with one of 638 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: two possibilities. The first is that Striker had an actual 639 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: health problem and it's a little party. It's rough, it hurts. 640 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: The first is that this kid had an actual serious 641 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: health problem and that his dad is choosing to use 642 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 1: it for propaganda, which is bad. The second is that 643 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: he made all of this up um and that I 644 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: don't know if that's worse. I guess it's better because 645 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: the kid's not dealing with the thing, but also it's 646 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: kind of worse morally, right if I don't know, I 647 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,800 Speaker 1: actually have no idea this. That's one for the philosophers. Um. So, 648 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 1: if we assume Striker had to be at least eight 649 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: or nine to express something like the complex emotion he 650 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: expressed to his dad, and that anecdote. The earliest realistically 651 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: this could have happened is twenty fourteen or fifteen. The 652 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: last real thing Brian Johnson had to do after coming 653 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: up with this probably lie about his children was the simplest, 654 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: which was to get a gigantic barbarian warrior body. Now, 655 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: as you guys saw, he's a pretty fit dude. That's 656 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: a that's a swoll swoll fella right there. But normal 657 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: guy muscular does not look impressive today in a world 658 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: with you know, Wayne the Rock Johnson. Right. It is 659 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 1: one of those if you want to look at how 660 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: body image standards for male action stars and movies have changed, 661 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: watch This is a problematic movie in a number of ways. 662 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: But watch the second Indiana Jones movie if you look 663 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,720 Speaker 1: at them, if you listen to the behind the seats commentary, 664 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: Harrison Ford spent months getting in shape for that and 665 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 1: was like one of the swollest men, Hollywood, are you 666 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 1: talking about the which one is the super racists? Super racist? Yeah, 667 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: there is a super racist one, okay, that is that 668 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: is the one is supposed to be jacked in the 669 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: Obviously he became the sex symbol for generations of men 670 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: and women. Um, but today, if you were casting a 671 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 1: guy with that body type in a Hollywood movie, he 672 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,359 Speaker 1: would be like the engineer. He'd be like the nerdy 673 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 1: guy on the Comsuter seven times his body way, the 674 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: old Superman was a guy who had like just basically 675 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: kind of a barrel like body. Dude. Yeah, it's things 676 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: have changed over time. We'll be talking about this more later. 677 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: So Brian could not simply be a fit guy and 678 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: tell people to eat raw organs. That's not going to work. 679 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 1: So he starts using the millions of dollars. He has 680 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: to find one of the many friendly steroid doctors who 681 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: would prescribe him a dizzy and cocktail of peptides and hormones. Now, 682 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: I want to note this is not an illegal process. 683 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: He has a prescription for everything that he gets, and 684 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: this is not a haphazard process. He's getting his blood tested, 685 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: He's getting like all sorts of different constantly. He is 686 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: paying millions of dollars over time for this. You don't 687 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: get this without looking going through him. Yeah, Like there's 688 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 1: a whole machine behind you get this ridiculous body. Yeah, 689 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 1: and we know exactly what he took and did because 690 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 1: he sent a list of his workout regimen, of his 691 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: steroid regimen, and his blood tests to several experts he 692 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: didn't wind up working with, and one of them later 693 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: published it. Because if you're trying to okay, yeah, he's like, 694 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: my kidney's all right, look at this? Are you okay 695 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: with this? His problem was more than he didn't think 696 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: he was big enough. That's great. Um. So obviously this 697 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 1: is not a hipA violation because if you just email 698 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,720 Speaker 1: your steroid history to a dude with a bodybuilding YouTube, 699 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 1: HIPPA does not cover that. The dude with the YouTube 700 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,239 Speaker 1: is well within his rights to post that shit. Um. 701 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: Because of this, we know that the bill for his 702 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: HGH alone was eleven thousand dollars a month. Now that's 703 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: a lot of hghum. He spent about fifteen thousand dollars 704 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: a month in total on his steroids preparing to become 705 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 1: the Liver King. But when he and one DS finally 706 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 1: revealed the Liver King to the world, my god, it 707 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: was glorious and I want to roll a video for you, 708 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:15,800 Speaker 1: you beautiful people. When you realize that people are suffering 709 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 1: and struggling and that there's a simple, elegant solution, a 710 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: return to ancestral living. That's really why my purpose is 711 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: now stop a hot job. There's this really simple way 712 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: of living. It's ancestral living. It's the way that we've 713 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: lived for millions of years. It's accessible, it's something you 714 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 1: can literally do right now today, and you can have 715 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 1: an impact in terms your life tomorrow. This is why 716 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 1: my life's work is my mission, it is my purpose. 717 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: It's putting back in what the modern world left up now. 718 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: A lot of people don't know this, but in the 719 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 1: ruins of go Begley Teppi, where some of the earliest 720 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: human civilization was found, the largest building in the center 721 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: of that town was a steroid factory. There's nothing more 722 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: ancestral than spending fifteen thousand dollars a month on a 723 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 1: mix of peptides and human growth hormone, just like our ancestors, 724 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: Just like our ancestors. Did you know our ancestors looked 725 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: nothing like that, right. They were thin, and they were frail, 726 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: and they were sickly, and they were like lived to 727 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: twenty This is like, this is you don't want to 728 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: get what our ancestors have. You want what we have. 729 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: Now you don't want what our ancestors have. It was bad, 730 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 1: it was bad. I don't know. I want that one 731 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: plant that the Romans had that like makes you not 732 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: able to make babies that they then fucked to death. 733 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, that's a thing Romans had access to, 734 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: a perfect you'll know that. It's one of my favorite 735 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: son just ru in this one island and if you 736 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 1: eat it then you're not fertile temporarily. It was a 737 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: perfect contraceptive and they fucked it to death. Who amazing 738 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: shit this is. Yeah, it's good stuff. It's good stuff. 739 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a Finnel relative. Actually, um, don't quote 740 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: me on that one though. So I know a lot 741 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: of shit. I learned a lot of shit in medical school. 742 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 1: I did not learn that. I did not learn that. 743 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 1: That video does feature a man who was very obviously 744 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: on a lot of steroids. Unlike a used car per 745 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: month of a nice used car berk, you can be 746 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: getting like a fucking Highlander with like eighty thousand miles 747 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 1: on it every month for that much steroids. Specific I 748 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: love that. I'm looking for a new pay anyway. Oh, 749 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 1: I love that, But it doesn't do much to lay 750 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: into the name liver King. Mostly At the start, Brian 751 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 1: was posting workout videos and his ancestral tenants, which he 752 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: claims are crucial lessons about health and wellness from ancient men. 753 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 1: Most of them are like pretty reasonable, like it's good 754 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: to walk around barefoot in the grass, it's nice to 755 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 1: spend time with your family. There is a crazy one 756 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 1: about how um electromagnetic waves from your WiFi are going 757 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 1: to destroy you. We could get into that more. I 758 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: think he legitimately believes it, so we won't harp on 759 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: the matter. So, yeah, it's not fun. If he believes it, 760 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 1: it's not as much fun. Yeah, so um he started. 761 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 1: So it started out just kind of being like, yeah, 762 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 1: here's his workouts. Here's him talking about like, yeah, you 763 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: should spend time with your family, it's good to to 764 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 1: to exercise. But then none of that stuff goes super viral, 765 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 1: like he's not really making a big impact on social media, 766 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: and then he starts posting his meals, which inevitably included 767 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,399 Speaker 1: weird things like raw testicles and ground up organs. Here's 768 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 1: the very first food TikTok he puts out, Oh yeah 769 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: for Tuesday dinner, we got ten ounces of fresh ground organs, 770 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: liberal heart, pancras playing, and some muscle meat. We've got 771 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: a couple ounces of some heart, some left over a beer, 772 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 1: comports sausage, and a couple houses of raw testicle that 773 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 1: consints when I'm having a dinner tonight. So I've I've 774 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: watched a lot of the liver King, and the argument 775 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: he will make is that if you're trying to support 776 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:21,320 Speaker 1: your testicles, vegetables won't do it because vegetables are not 777 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 1: made of testicles. If you want to support your testicles, 778 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 1: you have to eat testicles. It's all the only thing 779 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: that will do. I mean, the math is pretty strong science. 780 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 1: It's hard to deny. Yeah, so this stuff starts to 781 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,919 Speaker 1: get traction. But you will notice that, like that video, 782 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: which is from September of twenty twenty one, that's weird, 783 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: but that's not an abnormal quantity of food, especially not 784 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: for a man of that size. That's a pretty normal 785 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 1: sized meal, right. The people at one ds knew right away. Look, 786 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: people like the raw organs, but just eating an amount 787 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: of raw organs that's vaguely reasonable, that's not going to 788 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 1: do it for us. So here's a video he posted 789 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: nine months later. The summer of twenty twenty two, primal 790 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: primal primals. What the day it has been? I can't 791 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: wait to share all about it. This maybe perhaps the 792 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: most important conversation that I ever have had. And it's 793 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: named not after a day of the week, but it's 794 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 1: something similar. But a king has got to eat. So 795 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,399 Speaker 1: you already know we're gonna start with liver, with breakfast, lunch, 796 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: and dinner, because liver is king. We've got a couple 797 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: of pieces of bone marrow right here. We're gonna scoop 798 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: the puremeral right out of it. And look at these 799 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 1: dino shanks. I said, look, look at these dino shanks. 800 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: We got some bone marrow to brissoto at the bottom. 801 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 1: And why would you the vegetable when you could get 802 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,240 Speaker 1: down and devour this testicle? And we've got some cards. 803 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,240 Speaker 1: Why would you eat a vegetable when you could devour 804 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: these testicles? That's catchy? Wait, wait, hold on, hold on. 805 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 1: Is he doing this because he knows nobody wants to 806 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: eat balls and so they'll buy his pills? Or is like, 807 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: first off, they can be okay if you cook him right. 808 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 1: It could be a little bit like bacon. Rocky Mountains yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 809 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: but that said, yes, the idea is that they will 810 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: people will see his body and they'll see him eating 811 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: this raw meat, and they'll probably try it and then 812 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: be like, you know what sucks is eating huge quantities 813 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 1: of raw organs. We'll take your pill. I'll take these pills, right, 814 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 1: That is the business plan. Yeah, that's smart. Yeah, And 815 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 1: people like share videos of him looking like a maniac 816 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 1: eating all of this stuff. And from this video things 817 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: start to get gradually more unhinged, which is probably this 818 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: video of the liver King. I don't need you know what. 819 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna describe it. Let's just play this 820 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 1: motherfucker what liver King always earns what he eats. This 821 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: is called earning it. Wait should I explain? Let him 822 00:45:54,080 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: just take this one in right here, and this is 823 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:21,760 Speaker 1: a prime testicle. Wait for nah, let go, Hey, everybody, 824 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: Robert here speaking from a couple of months after this 825 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: was recorded in a live show. Obviously we didn't need 826 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: to describe this, but I feel the need to describe 827 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,200 Speaker 1: the video to you listening at home. In the podcast version, 828 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: it is video of the liver King sitting in like 829 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 1: a pool tube type deal or a tire I think 830 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: it is, and he's pulling his truck towards him. I 831 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: think they've got it in neutrol. And he's got like 832 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 1: a big rope pulling it towards him, and hanging underneath 833 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: the truck is a set of what are technically truck nuts, 834 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: but they're just the actual severed testicles of like a 835 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,879 Speaker 1: bowl or some other kind of large mammal. Now look 836 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:57,839 Speaker 1: on my bingo, on my bingo card, I just want 837 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 1: to cross mix cove sad. Yeah again a couple of times, 838 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 1: I just want to black it all out. Hold on 839 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: sec I'm just gonna draw the whole thing in. I'm 840 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: a fair man. That is legitimately funny. That's not a 841 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 1: bad bit. I'm sorry, it's not. It's gross, Yes, unsettling, 842 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: bad health advice, all of those things. Not a bad bit. 843 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 1: Those are giant balls. They're very well, they're about normal. 844 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 1: What were they. I mean, just a couple of days ago, 845 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: we slaughtered a black ram over in my place and 846 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 1: it had testicles about that big. Yeah, they get huge. 847 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,319 Speaker 1: So if you've got like a steer, or you've got 848 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 1: like a goat or a ram of any kind, all 849 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,400 Speaker 1: they are is a testicle delivery machine. So the balls 850 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 1: are massive. You are a fascinating man like just you 851 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 1: just can't not notice it. They got huge. Even my 852 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:55,120 Speaker 1: little sweet little baby pigmy or whatever miniature I don't 853 00:47:55,160 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 1: know what would go little bitty guy, I forget the 854 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 1: name of his species, but he has massive balls. He's 855 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,760 Speaker 1: like the size of a small dog. But his testicles 856 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: are as big as a cat. Of cats, but a cat. 857 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:13,799 Speaker 1: Goats were domesticated in Iran. My goats are angoras from Ankawa. Fantastically, sorry, yeah, 858 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: that's where the name Angora comes from. Is Ankawa is Iranian? 859 00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:21,400 Speaker 1: In the audience, he proved with that, so that was 860 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 1: a fun little derailment there. The liver king is almost 861 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 1: as obsessed with testicles as he is with liver and yeah, 862 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 1: actually I got to that about him fueling your balls, 863 00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 1: nonsense or not. His following exploded the more gross, weird 864 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 1: raw organs he eats and the more off putting workouts 865 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 1: he filmed himself doing his TikTok goes from basically nothing 866 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 1: because he didn't have or yeah he didn't have one too, 867 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 1: about four million followers in less than a year. His 868 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 1: YouTube hits more than a quarter of a million subscribers, 869 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: which is you know, okay, he had like a million 870 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: and a half followers on Instagram and in no time 871 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: at all, he's a bona fide et celebrity. That's about 872 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,799 Speaker 1: a combined sevenish million followers in the space of a year, 873 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: which is pretty rare, very rarely does somebody get that 874 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: big that quickly. He continued to involve the whole family 875 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 1: in his videos, calling his wife Liver Queen and naming 876 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 1: oh oh, oh, honey, You're gonna change your tune on 877 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: that one in a second, because he calls Rat and 878 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:23,399 Speaker 1: Striker the Liver Boys. Not that's a lateral move from 879 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 1: their original names, I will say that. Unfortunately, he also 880 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 1: chose to have them style their hair like Hitler youth cadets, 881 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 1: and he put them in Oh I'm sorry, hold on, 882 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 1: hold on, oh good, oh good, oh good, we got 883 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 1: another one. I don't even know how to describe this 884 00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: video to you. I'm just going to have them play it. 885 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 1: Probably want to know if the little boys, Well, here's 886 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: your answer. Okay, hold on, hey everyone, Robert again, just 887 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 1: gonna describe this video for you as well. We see 888 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 1: the Liver King and the Liver queen walking towards their 889 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 1: swimming pool in the heat of the day, where the 890 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,759 Speaker 1: liver boys have like a table thing floating over the 891 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: pool filled with gigantic raw like probably twenty pounds worth 892 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: of raw organs, and they're in the swimming pool in 893 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: their swimming suits and nothing else, just like tearing into 894 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 1: it with their teeth. It's profoundly unsettling. Hold on, that's 895 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:28,320 Speaker 1: gotta be child abuse legally, right, Like, thank you, deeply 896 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 1: unsettling child abuse. Yeah, we are so close that game bingo, 897 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: you can you can't. It's not good for you to 898 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 1: eat raw organs that are sin He is in a 899 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 1: swimming pool, it's got to be like a hundred and 900 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: tin right now. It's that's not hygienic. It is not okay. 901 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 1: And like the whole of this whole concept of like 902 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 1: how he speaks, it sounds like he's struggling when he 903 00:50:55,600 --> 00:51:01,840 Speaker 1: talks exhausting. Normally he's doing an Alex Jones and the 904 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 1: same way that Alex Jones is doing a rush limball. 905 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: It's actually kind of a there's a fascinating story there 906 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: and how all of these accents have descended from the limball. 907 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: That's like the original like right wing influencer, and they 908 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:18,400 Speaker 1: all just kind of yeah, amazing stuff. So he starts 909 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 1: that video if you couldn't hear it, by promising to 910 00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: provide proof that his boys eat like the Liver King. 911 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: But thanks to those leaked emails, we know that the 912 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,799 Speaker 1: Liver King himself did not actually eat that way. As 913 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 1: part of the intake process with one of these consultants, 914 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 1: he gave his schedule in diet, and it is certainly 915 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: not like what most people eat as a diet, but 916 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,479 Speaker 1: it's also not particularly weird. Nearly all of the food 917 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: he consumes comes in the form of protein shakes and yogurt, 918 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 1: with some eggs and reasonable portions of cooked red meat. 919 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: He does eat two to four ounces of raw liver 920 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: per day and a dose of raw bone marrow every day, 921 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 1: which is a little bit odd, but he claimed in 922 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 1: his interviews with these influencers that he was eating a 923 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 1: pound of raw liver every day, which is an amount 924 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,360 Speaker 1: that would make you sick. That's too much vitam and 925 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,840 Speaker 1: a it's bad for you. Do not eat a pound 926 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 1: of raw liver. Don't eat two to three ounces of 927 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 1: raw liver. Livers the lovely food to eat cooked. I 928 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: study liver. I love liver as an organ. I would 929 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,759 Speaker 1: never eat anything close to that amount of love. That 930 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 1: is a shame, because I did bring a pound of 931 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: raw liver. So obviously the whole liver king persona is 932 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 1: a lie. Um eating the way that this guy pretended 933 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 1: he eats would if not kill you, seriously injure you. 934 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 1: In a very short period of time. His entire persona 935 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 1: was fake and a lot of people picked up on this, 936 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 1: and from the jump there were people in his comments 937 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 1: suggesting that he was obviously on gear right like he 938 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: is on a hell of a lot of steroids. Here's 939 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 1: just one video of him denying that he takes performance 940 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:53,759 Speaker 1: enhancing drugs or peeds on the I'm So sorry Barstool 941 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:59,959 Speaker 1: Sports podcast. Again, very sorry all these ridiculous accusations. People 942 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:03,319 Speaker 1: say I take PDS, people say have ABM plants. Wait wait, wait, 943 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 1: wait wait wait, can we be honest like you you 944 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 1: definitely take pds. You know what, fuck I'm gonna be 945 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 1: off for the I'll here takes prioritize, execute every every 946 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 1: every fucking morning, every more. Buts I pray every day. 947 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 1: I love so we both take the whole world I'm 948 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: on windstraw. I don't know much a whole lot about that, 949 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,720 Speaker 1: but people say the same thing, I got ABM plants 950 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,879 Speaker 1: right or ab I got you can get plants. Looking 951 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,759 Speaker 1: at ABM plants right now, they look they look pretty good. 952 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,240 Speaker 1: I might have to get Wait. The third image result 953 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: on ABM plants is you wait, hold on, that's so 954 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 1: fucking good. It's so smart. What he did was he 955 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 1: was like, people say I did X, which is a 956 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 1: little bit weird, but and then they also say I 957 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 1: did why, which is super duper weird. Like that was 958 00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:00,360 Speaker 1: so smart for him to throw in ab implants, like 959 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 1: just to throw like everyone off the sense to be 960 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:06,000 Speaker 1: like this is like, it's distracting. It throws people off 961 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 1: like the main trail. It's a he's a clever guy, 962 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,279 Speaker 1: He's I mean, you don't. You don't get to where 963 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,760 Speaker 1: the liver King got without having a little bit of cunning. 964 00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: Fucking it took my title. Yeah, yeah, he sure did. 965 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,879 Speaker 1: He earned it. He earned it. Look so um yeah, 966 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 1: that's that's that's pretty fun. Um. Now. One of the 967 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 1: first people to call him out in a major public 968 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 1: way was actually Joe Rogan. And look, normally, if we 969 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 1: are talking about health on this show and Joe Rogan 970 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 1: comes up. He is not a good guy, but in 971 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:37,239 Speaker 1: this case, look, I will say one thing for the man. 972 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 1: He's an expert at knowing who's on steroids. If Joe 973 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,839 Speaker 1: Rogan says a dude is on fucking gear, he's probably right. 974 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: I trust Rogan. I'm so sorry he is not in 975 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 1: the wrong. He called the Liver King out immediately, and 976 00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 1: it's very funny because when you when you watch videos 977 00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:00,359 Speaker 1: of the Liver King responding to Joe Rogan saying he's 978 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,839 Speaker 1: definitely I think Joe's exact words where he has an 979 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 1: ass full of steroids. When someone interviewed the Liver King 980 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,399 Speaker 1: about it, his response was almost unrestrained glee. He didn't 981 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,720 Speaker 1: care that Rogan said he was a fraud. What mattered 982 00:55:14,800 --> 00:55:17,920 Speaker 1: was that Joe had mentioned him. And that's sensible because right, 983 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 1: his entire business is I want to get in as 984 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:23,359 Speaker 1: many people as possible, Right, I want everyone looking at 985 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 1: my ship and some number of them are going to 986 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 1: buy my weird organ supplements and that's what actually matters. 987 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:33,320 Speaker 1: So through late twenty twenty two, the Liver King escalated 988 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 1: his stunts, traveling to a series of exotic locations to 989 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 1: hunt with native tribes. This is always what he calls. 990 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 1: This is if you want to appropriate some culture. The 991 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 1: liber King is the king of cultural I've never seen 992 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 1: it done this well, and by well, I mean very badly. 993 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,360 Speaker 1: So he posts these little twenty minute YouTube videos and 994 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:55,920 Speaker 1: I think he was hoping they were going to be 995 00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 1: like a backdoor pilot to getting a TV show deal, right, 996 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 1: and he was going to go travel the world, eating 997 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: with native tribes, as he calls it. The problem is, 998 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: I don't think the liver King actually knows how to hunt, 999 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 1: and all of these videos are supposed to be him 1000 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,320 Speaker 1: hunting with people. Now I'm basing the fact that I 1001 00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 1: don't think he knows on the hunt how to hunt. 1002 00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,399 Speaker 1: On the video Sacred Hunt, which the Liver King film 1003 00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:19,279 Speaker 1: on his own five hundred acre ranch in Texas. The 1004 00:56:19,440 --> 00:56:22,600 Speaker 1: video shows him hunting a deer with rad or striker, 1005 00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 1: I forget which one. But the kind of hunting they're 1006 00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 1: doing is the kind that you can do when you 1007 00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 1: have five So if you have a bunch of land 1008 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,280 Speaker 1: right in a large parts of the country, including Texas 1009 00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 1: where he lives, whitetail deer in particular, overpopulated, and so 1010 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 1: you can kind of just hunt as many deer as 1011 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 1: you want on your own land. And one way that 1012 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 1: people particularly, I knew a lot of folks who were poor, 1013 00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 1: but they had like family land or something, and a 1014 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 1: big way they would supplement their diet is by hunting deer. 1015 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,479 Speaker 1: And you just like leave out some apples or something 1016 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,800 Speaker 1: like that and you shoot him. It's not particularly sporting, 1017 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:54,280 Speaker 1: but they are a species. We've killed their native predators 1018 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:56,840 Speaker 1: and whatnot. You know, it's the thing that said it 1019 00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 1: is not what most people would call hunting, right. Um, 1020 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,280 Speaker 1: what he does is even less hunting than that, because 1021 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:05,799 Speaker 1: he is on his own land and he has three 1022 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,879 Speaker 1: guides who are there to help him find the deer 1023 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 1: and flush it out so he can shoot it at 1024 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: long range with a rifle. Now, look that's not really hunting, 1025 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 1: but okay, Um, to make things grosser, the guide that 1026 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 1: he hired is I actually don't know if the guide 1027 00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 1: is an indigenous person. Um, they don't make that claim. 1028 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 1: I don't know much about this person. I wasn't able 1029 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,560 Speaker 1: to find much, but I'm gonna play this clip. It 1030 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:46,520 Speaker 1: is rough. This is this is bad. Hold on here, 1031 00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 1: pissed would be like no. I mean, the one thing, 1032 00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:53,880 Speaker 1: if you're actually if you're hunting to the point where 1033 00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 1: you have to like stalk an animal, you don't want 1034 00:57:56,680 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: to smell like stuff like for example, burning sage. Um. 1035 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: First of all, I like that the dude looked like 1036 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 1: he was Middle Eastern, Like, I don't know, I'm not 1037 00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: gonna make it clear, like Kadio is just like he's 1038 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: one of my people, just like out there just being like, 1039 00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: here's some ful offel. He's making money. You're ready to go, 1040 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 1: and now go. Hi. The deer the way they hunt, 1041 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 1: they're just like walking through the woods. And then the 1042 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 1: guy stops him and he says, I'm going to send 1043 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:29,840 Speaker 1: one of my guys to flush the deer out, and 1044 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: you shoot it when the deer runs out, and it's 1045 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 1: again not Look, that's a perfectly reasonable way to get meat. 1046 00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 1: It's not necessarily hunting. Grills would do better than that. Yeah, 1047 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 1: that's the bare minimum. I agree. So obviously this is 1048 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 1: all very very fun. Um. Now, it's also kind of 1049 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 1: worth noting that that guide you could see it in 1050 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:55,800 Speaker 1: some of the clips, is a lot taller than him. 1051 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:59,320 Speaker 1: The liver king usually doesn't let himself be filmed next 1052 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 1: to other men who are taller. But the truth is 1053 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:05,240 Speaker 1: he's five foot seven, which is fine. But it's really 1054 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 1: funny that he's he puts. When you watch thirty hours 1055 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 1: of his videos like I have, there's like two or 1056 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 1: three times where he's next to a dude because he 1057 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 1: doesn't want people to see that. This really highlights how 1058 00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:20,960 Speaker 1: much I worry about you sometimes that I'm gonna say. 1059 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: Here's what I'm gonna say. See, if you really want 1060 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 1: to be the liver king, then be a short liver king. Yeah, 1061 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,440 Speaker 1: be a short king. There's nothing wrong with king, perfectly 1062 00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 1: honorable short kings. Anyway, there's some out of you out there. 1063 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 1: I know it. So after this video, he goes all 1064 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,960 Speaker 1: over Africa and South America to film himself watching other 1065 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 1: people hunt and then eating organ meat, often meat that 1066 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 1: like they don't have enough of because they're like, yeah, 1067 00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: it's kind of it's growdy. M In one interview with BuzzFeed, 1068 00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:51,200 Speaker 1: here's how he described the experience when you hang out 1069 00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 1: with primitive culture tribes. That's his words. Look, that's his words. 1070 00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: I know it's bad. Who don't know how to open 1071 00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 1: a bottle of water or even know what a phone 1072 00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 1: is you as I know, it's rough. You are seeing 1073 01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:05,280 Speaker 1: people laugh more than you ever have in your life. 1074 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:07,560 Speaker 1: In the Amazon, my cameraman was hit with an arrow 1075 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 1: at his chest during a hunt. He wasn't injured, but 1076 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,480 Speaker 1: you know how hard those hunters laughed. They laughed at everything. 1077 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 1: Everything's so hilarious to them. They were trying to kill you, Brian, 1078 01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 1: because you're a dick. Also, they know how to open 1079 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,320 Speaker 1: bottles of water. And I'm gonna guess most of them 1080 01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 1: have smartphones. I've been doing like every refugee camp I have, 1081 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 1: people have phones. It's not uncommon. We'll talk about that 1082 01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 1: more in a little bit. Johnson remained evasive when asked 1083 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 1: how he was able to enter indigenous communities. It takes 1084 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,080 Speaker 1: some finessing to let us come in, but you know 1085 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 1: how it is, so I don't Brian, Yeah, tell us. Well, 1086 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you so. This is all very racist. 1087 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 1: It's also untrue. All of the tribes that Liver King 1088 01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 1: visited have access to water bottles and again, smartphones. BuzzFeed 1089 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 1: seemed to miss to fight at how he arranged these inbeds, 1090 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,920 Speaker 1: but like thirty seconds of googling made it obvious it 1091 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 1: turns out that a lot of people who are members 1092 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 1: of like hunter gathered tribes and in these parts of 1093 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 1: the world are desperately poor in modern terms, and you 1094 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 1: can sometimes pay money to go hunt with them because 1095 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 1: they need money to survive, and so this is a 1096 01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 1: thing that you can just kind of buy your way 1097 01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 1: into doing. This is the case with the Hadza tribe 1098 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 1: who he visited last year. I want to play you 1099 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 1: a segment from that video. First, the Hudsa, the wild bushman. 1100 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 1: They don't cultivate anything. Oh yeah, so this is what 1101 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:36,240 Speaker 1: we're doing now because we are going to hang out 1102 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 1: with the Hudsa. No, he does not wear shirts. He 1103 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 1: never had a shirt. Talk but does how many times 1104 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 1: he puts his hand on a fucking tree? There's like 1105 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:55,080 Speaker 1: four in this video. You're gonna do it again in 1106 01:01:55,160 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 1: just a second there, I guess pret So for several 1107 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 1: minutes Google that is rough. Several minutes Googling found two 1108 01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:24,000 Speaker 1: different companies that offer travel experiences with the Hadza, starting 1109 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,360 Speaker 1: at two to three thousand dollars per person to go 1110 01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: out and hunt with them, and again nothing again. Like again, 1111 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 1: They're trying to survive in a world that is incredibly difficult, 1112 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: and that has made their lives a lot harder, and 1113 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,000 Speaker 1: is consistently encroaching on the land that they used to 1114 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,400 Speaker 1: hunt on. That's polluting it, That's making it a lot 1115 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:41,960 Speaker 1: harder for them to live the way that they used 1116 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 1: to live. You know, get what you can out of 1117 01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 1: guys like the Liver King. I'm just trying to say, 1118 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 1: there's nothing mysterious about how he arranged these inbeds. This 1119 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:52,560 Speaker 1: is a thing that tourists to actually all the time. 1120 01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:54,880 Speaker 1: I found a twenty twenty account from a guy named 1121 01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 1: Max Waugh who paid for the same experience as the 1122 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: Liver King. Here's what he afterwards. In the moments following 1123 01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:04,760 Speaker 1: our departure from the Hadzabe camp in the sub and 1124 01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 1: in the subsequent months and years, I've re examined our 1125 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 1: experience with the tribe and sometimes questioned what we saw, 1126 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 1: how much of it was a genuine experience, how much 1127 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,760 Speaker 1: was staged. Before we left, they tried to sell us 1128 01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 1: their bows, arrows and bead trinkets. Tempting, but I wasn't 1129 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 1: sure if we'd be able to get a bow and 1130 01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:21,200 Speaker 1: arrow set through customs. The next day, as we drove 1131 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 1: through a nearby town, we saw two of the boys 1132 01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:25,440 Speaker 1: walking around in T shirts. The day before, the men 1133 01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 1: had all been decked out in ragged shorts and little else, 1134 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:30,120 Speaker 1: maybe some beads and animal hides, but no shirts. Had 1135 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 1: they dressed down for our visit. Even today, I wonder 1136 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 1: if we were getting a genuine look at the hods 1137 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 1: Away of life, or if most traces of Western influence 1138 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:41,040 Speaker 1: were carefully tucked away when Turrists were around and like, yeah, man, 1139 01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 1: like that's why you paid three thousand dollars to hang 1140 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:45,400 Speaker 1: out with them for a day. It's it's like it's 1141 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:47,560 Speaker 1: a business. Yeah, they put on a show for you. 1142 01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 1: That's what they're supposed to do. Yeah, that's that's how 1143 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:52,800 Speaker 1: they're making a living right now. Yeah, And the liver 1144 01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 1: King is pretending that like they're living the way, the 1145 01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:56,920 Speaker 1: ancestral way that he did. And one of the things 1146 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,240 Speaker 1: you might notice is that because he goes and he 1147 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,480 Speaker 1: hunts with them, and then they all eat organ meat together, 1148 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 1: and if the thing that he was doing work the 1149 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 1: way he says it is, there would not be a 1150 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 1: gigantic size discrepancy between all of them and him. You 1151 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,320 Speaker 1: might notice none of them look like the liver King, 1152 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,120 Speaker 1: because they do not have fifteen thousand dollars a month 1153 01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 1: to spend shooting HGH into their assholes. They look healthy 1154 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 1: because they have like a normal diet they have. They 1155 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:25,440 Speaker 1: look like people who eat like humans vegetables. Yeah no, 1156 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 1: they're not their body weight in human growth hormones. Yes 1157 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:35,280 Speaker 1: so um yeah. Despite being clearly fraudulent, the Liver King's 1158 01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:38,920 Speaker 1: pr blitz worked. By some reports, his ancestral supplements business 1159 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 1: swored to nearly one hundred million dollars a year. He 1160 01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 1: continued to escalate the weird stunts, doing stuff like showing 1161 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,560 Speaker 1: up shirtless outside the queen's funeral to do bicep curls, 1162 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 1: which I actually I'm entirely supportive of that. Fat's based 1163 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 1: as hell. I'm just gonna say it. That's pretty rad. 1164 01:04:56,760 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 1: I got I got nothing against him for that one. Yeah, 1165 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 1: until in December of twenty twenty two, a bodybuilding influencer 1166 01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 1: called more Plates More Dates published an expose on I 1167 01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 1: fucking hate all these people. They're all the worst when 1168 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 1: you have to spend hours watching the because you have 1169 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:19,680 Speaker 1: part of like a lot of the reporting on the 1170 01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:23,439 Speaker 1: Liver King was done by bodybuilding, and they're all they're 1171 01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 1: all terrible, but some of them are honest, like the 1172 01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 1: guy who exposed him as a guy who's like, yeah, 1173 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 1: if you want to be a professional bodybuilder, you have 1174 01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:35,000 Speaker 1: to do steroids. I'm just so worried about you for 1175 01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:39,160 Speaker 1: the amount of time you spent watching bodybuilding videos, Like, well, 1176 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:42,840 Speaker 1: there's some part of me. Am I spending eleven thousand 1177 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 1: dollars a month on HGH now of course horse no. Um. 1178 01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:54,400 Speaker 1: So this guy more Plates More Dates publishes an expose 1179 01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:57,320 Speaker 1: on YouTube and Deceber twenty twenty two that reveals the 1180 01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,600 Speaker 1: King's steroid abuse. The liver King had sent him an 1181 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 1: email like, here's all off the steroids. I'm on what 1182 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:05,200 Speaker 1: else should I be taking? And this guy, eventually, after 1183 01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,320 Speaker 1: months of the liver Kings saying I'm not on steroids 1184 01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:09,080 Speaker 1: at all, was like, well, this guy's a liar. I'm 1185 01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 1: going to expose any other steroids. That is what he's doing. 1186 01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:15,960 Speaker 1: And it's it's actually if you watch the video, it's 1187 01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,680 Speaker 1: interesting because this guy is a steroid influencer, but he 1188 01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,960 Speaker 1: knows his shit, um, and he talks about like why 1189 01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:24,360 Speaker 1: he's doing what he's doing. It is kind I did 1190 01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,880 Speaker 1: find it kind of interesting. Um, but yeah, right, After 1191 01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:30,080 Speaker 1: this comes out, everybody's making fun of the liver King. 1192 01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 1: He goes viral for being a gigantic fraud, and immediately thereafter, 1193 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 1: the liver King puts out a video confessing that he'd 1194 01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 1: lied about taking peeds and he had a justification that 1195 01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:45,600 Speaker 1: I might call peculiar. Oh boy, y'all aren't ready for 1196 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 1: this shit trial. I'm making this video to apologize this 1197 01:06:54,320 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 1: guy because I'm embarrassing, ashamed because I lied and I 1198 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:04,800 Speaker 1: misled a lot of people. I've stated that this is 1199 01:07:04,840 --> 01:07:07,760 Speaker 1: a complicated as fuck topic, at least to me. It 1200 01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:11,960 Speaker 1: is because before social media, I was rich and anonymous, 1201 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:16,280 Speaker 1: and after social media I'm still rich, but no longer anonymous, 1202 01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:19,160 Speaker 1: and I never expected this kind of exposure in the 1203 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:24,919 Speaker 1: public eye. It's been tricky as fuck to navigate. Well, 1204 01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:29,640 Speaker 1: clearly I did it wrong, and I'm here now to 1205 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 1: set the record straight. Yes I've done steroids, and yes 1206 01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:42,080 Speaker 1: I'm on steroids monitored and managed by a trained hormone clinician. 1207 01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:46,080 Speaker 1: Liver King the public figure was an experiment to spread 1208 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 1: the message, to bring awareness to the four thousand people 1209 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,960 Speaker 1: a day who killed themselves. That eighty thousand people a 1210 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,200 Speaker 1: day that pride to kill themselves. Are people are hurting 1211 01:07:56,240 --> 01:08:02,040 Speaker 1: at record rates with depression, autoimmune anxiety, fertility, low ambition 1212 01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:07,000 Speaker 1: in life. Fuck you, man, so that's pretty right. Fuck 1213 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 1: you for bringing him into my life. That's why he's 1214 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 1: a bastard. The whole I had to spend fifteen thousand 1215 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 1: dollars a month on steroids because people are killing themselves. 1216 01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:25,920 Speaker 1: I had to teach you. He's Jesus hold on, would 1217 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,280 Speaker 1: you call that persecution complex? Yeah? Oh yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, 1218 01:08:29,320 --> 01:08:33,880 Speaker 1: yeah yeah. I do love his argument that like if only, 1219 01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 1: if only all of those suicide victims were eating more 1220 01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 1: raw organ meat, I was trying to save lives. I'm 1221 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 1: so upset. It's pretty offensive. Rights, that's pretty evil. Like 1222 01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:51,880 Speaker 1: that's actually the first thing he's done that's really upset me. 1223 01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:56,639 Speaker 1: Really really to build to it, but that's legitimately evil. 1224 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:00,800 Speaker 1: Damn him. He's he's a pretty bad person. So this 1225 01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 1: is why I've declared him a bastard. The other stuff 1226 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:06,439 Speaker 1: is gross and weird and kind of funny, but the 1227 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:08,680 Speaker 1: reality and obviously I don't I don't actually have like 1228 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:11,920 Speaker 1: an issue with people using steroids. Again, I think that 1229 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:15,439 Speaker 1: performance enhancing and drugs, drugs should be completely legal in 1230 01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:19,000 Speaker 1: sports because it's more fun to watch. Look, they're already 1231 01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:22,040 Speaker 1: mortgaging their bodies for money. It's already fucked up on 1232 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 1: an ethical level. Just not lying about it isn't any 1233 01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 1: worse anyway, people checking my medical record right now. Yeah, 1234 01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:32,600 Speaker 1: I know I don't agree with you above statements. I do, 1235 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:37,040 Speaker 1: I do. I mean, look, there's two kinds of world 1236 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 1: class professional athletes. There's the ones who are on steroids 1237 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:42,120 Speaker 1: and the ones who are on steroids. We don't know 1238 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 1: how to catch with your analysis tests yet Russians. Yeah, yeah, 1239 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,560 Speaker 1: but yeah, this is what's actually evil, right is the 1240 01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:53,080 Speaker 1: whole thing that he's trying to claim that like I 1241 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:56,839 Speaker 1: am doing this because I think that the health advice 1242 01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 1: I have will stop people from killing themselves, when as 1243 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 1: we're about to talk about, the reality is he is 1244 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,960 Speaker 1: contributing to the suicide epidemic and everything that he's doing. 1245 01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:06,479 Speaker 1: And this is where we have to get kind of 1246 01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:11,680 Speaker 1: serious for a minute, because suicidal ideation is hugely correlated 1247 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 1: with body dysmorphia disorder, something I've dealt with, something that 1248 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 1: a lot of men and a lot of women deal with, 1249 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 1: the rate of completed suicide among sufferers of BDD is 1250 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:25,519 Speaker 1: what one clinical journal that I read described as markedly high. 1251 01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:29,880 Speaker 1: And guess what. The percentage of American men dissatisfied with 1252 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,439 Speaker 1: their own appearance has tripled in the last twenty five years. 1253 01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 1: By some accounts, BDD is as common now among men 1254 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 1: as it is among women. One twenty twenty two studies 1255 01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:40,479 Speaker 1: show that fifty four percent of men in the United 1256 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:43,800 Speaker 1: States have signs of BDD, compared with forty nine percent 1257 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 1: of women. The soaring rates of body dysmorphia disorder among 1258 01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 1: young men have a body count, and it has a 1259 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 1: lot to do with why male suicide rates in the 1260 01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 1: United States are at an all time high. The explosion 1261 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:58,560 Speaker 1: of BDD among men is not solely caused by the 1262 01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:01,880 Speaker 1: fact that every single male movie, action star and influencer 1263 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 1: seems to take steroids and spend millions on personal training 1264 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 1: to look in humanly jacked, but it is not a 1265 01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,680 Speaker 1: non factor in that it does play a part in 1266 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,880 Speaker 1: those deaths and in this problem. In twenty thirteen, one 1267 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:17,520 Speaker 1: expert estimated twenty percent of Hollywood leading men used peds 1268 01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:20,920 Speaker 1: like the Liver King, and today the number is substantially higher. 1269 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:24,559 Speaker 1: Some male actors have spoken up about this Channing Tatum, 1270 01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:27,599 Speaker 1: on an episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, rejected praise 1271 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:30,400 Speaker 1: for a topless picture of himself in The Magic Mic Movies, 1272 01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:32,920 Speaker 1: saying the routine that had given them him that body 1273 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 1: had been made possible because it was unhealthy. Zac Efron, 1274 01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:38,920 Speaker 1: who got into movie star shaped for the twenty seventeen 1275 01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:42,240 Speaker 1: Baywatch movie, has admitted the suffering from severe depression due 1276 01:11:42,240 --> 01:11:46,240 Speaker 1: to body image issues afterwards. Those guys played their role 1277 01:11:46,320 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 1: in the problem, too, but they've also clearly made an 1278 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 1: effort to grapple with what is happening to them and 1279 01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,280 Speaker 1: what happens to young men as a result of Hollywood's 1280 01:11:53,320 --> 01:11:56,040 Speaker 1: relentless need to serve us male role models who are 1281 01:11:56,120 --> 01:11:59,240 Speaker 1: not muscular in a way that human beings can become naturally. 1282 01:11:59,760 --> 01:12:03,320 Speaker 1: The Liver King, knowing all of this, made inspiring a 1283 01:12:03,439 --> 01:12:06,519 Speaker 1: generation of eating disorder victims his business, and so did 1284 01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:09,680 Speaker 1: the sick fucks at the one DS Collective. Now, I 1285 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:11,320 Speaker 1: could go on a lot more of a rant here, 1286 01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:13,639 Speaker 1: but this is a nice time night and we don't 1287 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:17,120 Speaker 1: need to do that. So instead, I'm going to close 1288 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 1: from a clip from last year's Liver King Christmas video, 1289 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:22,160 Speaker 1: and I need to explain what's happening in this video 1290 01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:26,479 Speaker 1: to you, because it's going to look like unhinged nonsense otherwise. So, 1291 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:28,800 Speaker 1: the liver King has a chef, and since he mostly 1292 01:12:28,800 --> 01:12:31,799 Speaker 1: eats raw organs, I don't know how much chefing is involved, 1293 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 1: but he does have a chef who seems to live 1294 01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 1: on his compound in Austin with him, and for the 1295 01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 1: holiday one year, this chef created a Christmas tree of 1296 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:46,160 Speaker 1: raw organ meats and other raw meats, which it's very 1297 01:12:46,240 --> 01:12:48,200 Speaker 1: funny the whole like that it was set up that 1298 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 1: he's going to have friends over. We're doing this dinner. 1299 01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna like heat the center of this Christmas tree 1300 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 1: of raw organs and cook it for everybody.

In your life and a 1392 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 1: note where someone was like, hey, Robert, big fan of 1393 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:39,200 Speaker 1: the pod, liked you for years. My dad started to 1394 01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 1: lose his mind a couple of years ago, and I 1395 01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 1: don't know why, but the thing he did was repeatedly 1396 01:18:45,439 --> 01:18:48,439 Speaker 1: ordered knives from the bud k catalet.

But 1462 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:33,280 Speaker 1: also I'm broadly supportive of the message after everything going 1463 01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 1: on in Atlanta right now, in particular, um, speaking of 1464 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:38,840 Speaker 1: which our own Garrison Davis has been on the ground, 1465 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 1: and it's pretty fucked up night in Atlanta. So if 1466 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:44,800 Speaker 1: you if you've got cash to burn their bail fund, 1467 01:23:44,960 --> 01:23:47,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure is going to be looking for some of it. Um, 1468 01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:50,120 Speaker 1: because all of those people are getting charged with domestic terrorism, 1469 01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:54,240 Speaker 1: which is yeah, it's a real problem. It's ugly as shit. Um. 1470 01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 1: Nothing says terrorism like breaking a bank window. For those listening, 1471 01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 1: for those lists isis guys were shooting at me, thinking, boy, 1472 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:07,200 Speaker 1: this is almost as scary as seeing a bank window 1473 01:24:07,280 --> 01:24:12,720 Speaker 1: get broken for those listening at home. His hoodie is 1474 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:16,840 Speaker 1: a bright yellow hoodie and there's a smiley face on it, 1475 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:19,920 Speaker 1: and that's there. That's all there is to it. So 1476 01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:28,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's just in case an incredible bit um. Okay, 1477 01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 1: one more question, but make it a really crude one. 1478 01:24:31,880 --> 01:24:37,080 Speaker 1: We only have like thirty seconds. Oh boy, I'm more 1479 01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: worried about his heart. Although he does take in ac 1480 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:43,400 Speaker 1: so hopefully his liver is fine. That's probably good, right, No, 1481 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:47,479 Speaker 1: his liver is a fucking mess. Yea. His actual liver 1482 01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:50,720 Speaker 1: is a fucking wreck.

Uh no, I mean, I'm actually gonna guess 1508 01:26:44,240 --> 01:26:47,280 Speaker 1: lads was in speaking of which Lance and I actually 1509 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 1: have a lot in common. He's another plan. Oh boy. Um, 1510 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:53,599 Speaker 1: one of the things I always appreciated about Lance Armstrong 1511 01:26:53,640 --> 01:26:56,439 Speaker 1: outside of the problematic aspects of his career, is that 1512 01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:00,320 Speaker 1: he called my hometown a soulless pit, which is true, 1513 01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:04,360 Speaker 1: not in an accurate way. And it's it's one of 1514 01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:07,599 Speaker 1: those things. There's basically three famous people from Plano. Um 1515 01:27:07,880 --> 01:27:09,840 Speaker 1: there's on the lower level me and then on the 1516 01:27:09,920 --> 01:27:13,799 Speaker 1: higher level there's Lance Armstrong and Alan tutik Aka washed 1517 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:17,799 Speaker 1: from Firefly. Yeah, one of us was not a monster, 1518 01:27:18,280 --> 01:27:23,040 Speaker 1: not a great record for Plano K nine from Rogue one. 1519 01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:26,280 Speaker 1: That's fucking that's that's that's it. That's yeah, that's less 1520 01:27:26,320 --> 01:27:32,000 Speaker 1: of a touchstone fire I assume he did other things 1521 01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:36,000 Speaker 1: and that's okay. Yeah, just those two. All right, well 1522 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:40,599 Speaker 1: you got it. You can't stay here, but you gotta 1523 01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:46,160 Speaker 1: go home something like that.

I have missed being able to do 1526 01:27:55,080 --> 01:27:57,200 Speaker 1: the live show. So it's lovely that we got to 1527 01:27:57,479 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 1: to all get back together. Um. And it's it's nice 1528 01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:03,800 Speaker 1: every time we hear that, like a show has you 1529 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:07,080 Speaker 1: sold out? That always makes everybody feel better. It is 1530 01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:09,639 Speaker 1: kind of a weird job, like just reading about terrible 1531 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:13,800 Speaker 1: people and then damaging someone's mental health over a zoom call. 1532 01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 1: So getting to see that I'm also harming all of 1533 01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:21,080 Speaker 1: your health is what makes it all worthwhile.

Kava and I are now going to 1539 01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:40,560 Speaker 1: try to clean up some of the bagel shrapnels that 1540 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:42,560 Speaker 1: we cause as little of a problem as possible for 1541 01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:45,920 Speaker 1: the nice people at this at this theater.
