0:00 I was having this conversation with somebody the other day. Yeah. That's some of the shit they were using in Afghanistan and Pakistan. that was infected with it, Yeah. Even if it's an accident. that I'm so fucking stupid. It's true. You know what I mean? It's just what they, you know, those people do, though. I'd find a sharp rock, and I'd be like, I need to figure out how to make these on my own.
5:15 Finally, I figured out it's one of those solar farms. For California, it's a fucking crime they don't use it. I mean, just drive the cars. And one thing I've always had a thought about was after 9-11, I think one of the biggest fuck-ups Bush had was he had the opportunity for kind of a Manhattan Project moment. People who say, well, no blood for oil, okay, pay $10 a gallon for gas and watch your fucking economy crash.
8:03 But – Right. The cars they have now are getting close. Can you name one fucking thing you use day to day that's 100 years old. Yeah. In your life. Think about it. Can you name one fucking thing you use day to day I've never driven an electric car. But a dude, high-performance electric cars. Oh, really? It's better. Yeah. It's this burning shit, and that's how you get things done.
11:17 It's like you can build a thousand nuclear plants but have one Fukushima. Three Mile Island. That's three. years of use, and you already have Right. It's not like living near a fucking fresh spring. It's not just that. They're trying to develop a system of holding it in place now. course you have to keep the power on to keep this machine on and the whole point with you guys
14:18 They didn't really know. Yeah, that's a pretty big risk. Right. What happens if the power goes out? DDT. Yeah. Here's an item that no matter—whenever you get into a tough spot, you just fucking pass a sin tax. The way we're trying to prevent this terrible plague is by making To cut their money back in certain situations like this when you went to government, it was service.
17:31 And the next guy went. If you look at the coverage of anybody that's outside of the standard two choices, The coverage from, they learned from Ross Perot. That's why Clinton won. Yeah. I remember my friend John was like helping with his campaign. He had the money. So from there, they changed the Commission for Presidential Debates or whatever they call it, which is a privately funded institution.
19:57 over the years and say, fellas, we'll take the same deal we gave you. And they'll gridlock right overseas. It's probably there will be a giant sucking sound going south. And I took a buyout. That was the middle class. That was the middle class. You know, you could go to work for one of those companies or one of the companies that supplied that industry and work 30 years and raise a family
23:07 is decent money. If you worked overtime, you could get up $80,000 to $100,000. But if you with Ford Motor Company, nepotism was a well-established thing. So just when the Mustang started getting good again. a lot of people, that was, that was one of the ways they defined their lives. They were a UAW and people bought into it and that was why there was such a big backlash when people figured out that, you know, no matter what the fuck you do on the line, it's not going to make a difference if the asshole up in Detroit decides to build a dog shit car.
26:20 When you have a plant that fucking old, eventually, you know, it just gets to the All their plants that built parts, if you didn't put a car together, if you have to make their own money. But guess what? They've only got one customer, Ford fucking Motor Company, or we're going to have to cut you off. Why did the cars suck? high on the hog i mean they were just you know there was you'd hear stories about these guys
29:33 Because what it was is each job had a set rate. So one guy would take this cup and he would set it here. And so that's how you do the eight hours you actually only work four? And then they went through and they killed all that shit, which they're supposed to. one guy would work Wednesday. So you can No, before I worked for Ford, when I was a kid, I went to college in Kentucky.
31:28 now this is in southeastern Kentucky it's Walmart or nothing. Problem is, and they hired you through a temp agency. And then they would find their certain positions where they needed supervisors, quality guys, shit like that, skilled positions, and they would hire those people full time. Did you see the culinary union is in front of the Tropicana screaming at people?
33:22 The culinary union is spending a shitload of money trying to keep the UFC. I should say to the best of my knowledge. So they're being bullies. And that's cunts and the fact that people found out it's power. Because if not, these Republicans, they're going to take your job. They're going to rape your it's not based on the opinion of the masses. You're supposed to go with the way that the head of the snake wants to go.
36:00 Yeah. It had the best shade and the cleanest water. When you see Obama decrying the use of chemical weapons, You're being a silly man. Well, he makes Obama look like a child on the regular. Did you hear about the time they met at this conference? i mean putin is gangster as fuck he goes fly fishing bare chested riding fucking buffaloes And how he got to where he is.
38:38 I want to be in the fucking KGB. But that's how he got his start. His term ends and he goes, OK, I'm going to be president again. and they will talk about how, you know, the, the, the restrictions And it's like as any smart person would know, blank. getting on people for making fun of Christians. But it seems like, you know, when I was, and I don't want to get into the,
42:19 they don't know, you know, and they all know almost nothing right and how it's all being tilted These are adults. Isn't it fascinating that even back then they were engineering against tyranny? oh well okay four-fifths of a man or whatever you know and they marginalize all the good shit The idea that people can profit and that they can spend their money to make sure that people get locked up more often so that they can
45:13 That's going to be looked in the future upon, you know, But he was talking about, like, what's going on in China right now. You worked every day so you didn't fucking starve in the winter. It's that's like many things in life. And if a perfect example like me, you know, I mean, I was a fucking auto worker. From the time I was born until December of 2006, I almost never paid a doctor bill.
48:09 I don't know. So the stock was up. And the rest of that money goes to us. I don't know what the fuck happened, but something absolutely happened in the design aspect of If you're a weirdo. Like the Chevelle that looked like shit. And you hear all the gloom and doom scenarios. but And they still got busted with that Oliver North thing. You know, you assholes can no one in the you can't assassinate another foreign official.
52:57 He was an instructor at a training class I was at. you know and it's it's crazy though there's a fucking target list there's a list that if your Yes. And there's no doubt about that if they get a chance to take you out and you happen to It shoots hellfire missiles. I thought the Taliban came out of the Mujahideen. The Taliban was set up basically by Pakistan after Russia pulled out of Afghanistan.
56:23 And if we see a nuclear war in our time, it will probably be between India and Pakistan is scared to fucking death of India. And if we see a nuclear war in our time, But so that was what the Taliban was basically their strongman that they put in. Well, they want, you know, Pakistan is not, they'll give up the foreign fighters. I think the idea of completely resolving all the issues that you have and ending the war is not very profitable.
58:42 You're never going to stop people, especially with the hypocritical attitude that we have as a culture where we allow certain drugs. And often those I don't give a fuck whatever the substance or item, whatever it is that the government says you can't have. Yeah. If I step over this line, I'm going to jail for the same shit. Now it's the same way with drugs.
1:00:44 But you are in favor of background checks and shit like that. Yeah. like regulation of who gets firearms i think we've got plenty man we got plenty if you but you you Now, that background check consists of someone in a government office somewhere typing your name in a computer. do agree with that. amendment right. And we have to make sure, Joe, that you're using this right correctly,
1:03:04 So if you pay the government 200 bucks, we'll give you this shit. I see what you're saying. restricted. Yeah. Is that what it is? I think you can keep some guns away from some nutty people. So if we're really trying to stop, are we going after the tool or are we trying to stop the tool or are we trying to stop the act? Yeah, but you know what? also realizes he's aware that there's a lot of fucking bad things in the world,
1:06:15 It's not the police's job. The issue is not— And therein you touch an issue that's a big thing with me is criminals, who are, that's the only issue. The issue is not. You know, the military, the shooting that just took place at the Navy Yard, gun-free zone, you know, Newtown, a school. because chances are it's probably not, but it's an option you have. If you don't have it, you don't
1:09:07 The people that abide by your laws? Well, it's not even just an asshole. And the other thing is I think the media feeds it because they give these assholes instant celebrity. And he was a former police officer. But he was, where I bought a lot of stuff in Las Vegas, he bought shit from there as well. my friend who was a manager at that store called me up and he was like, dude, that's fucking Chris.
1:11:58 So you can go in, you pay for the shit, And he passed it all. but he was fired because his training officer basically said he wasn't suitable is what I understood. He ratted out and then the department fired him because they said he was lying. But if you look at the shit he did, Soft is an acronym that stands for Special Operations Forces, forces can be a SEAL team. Special forces is an army specific unit. It's actually a branch of
1:15:28 Malvo? we'd have been a hell of a lot higher body count. You can't go any higher. I just read. Do you remember that? They do their training camps. And to me, instead of having this mentality of everybody go inside, shelter in place, you know, cower, Be scared. the other way it certainly can can. What if your kid happens The real problem is human behavior.
1:18:55 and how many people could he kill with the axe before you stop him? I fucked up my own quote. thing you can do with your car. If you're so inclined, anybody can do, there was an old man They could possibly – Yeah. not a bad thing to just be just a little bit diligent about who you fucking allow to have It's fucking crazy. And this has been going on since the 30s.
1:22:03 Say it. Exactly. A massage is, you know, just as intimate. I understand it. And I will stand up and I would be more than happy to defend the guys. And everyone knows that it won't because you know why? The man done got scared. have no idea! No. But this cop is giving a fucking rundown of, youown of trying to be very precise and all this shit. It was Boston bombings.
1:25:30 But you remember what I'm talking about with the press conference? and there was so much disinformation and misinformation. It's weird when that kind of shit happens. It's a fact. and they make shit up to fill the space. There's definitely these sort of endeavors, trying to There's a weird, almost like a desire. too yeah we got to be aware of that too because if you're not aware of that too. There's that too. Yeah. And we got to be aware of that too, because if you're not aware of that too, if you deny
1:28:29 his left. This photo shows it's towards his right. And it's, um, doing this show, I've realized that about. in the news, whether it's that the information that we receive today is that there's an a gigantic soup of people and the They've been proven to post false shit. that wants so many accolades is a cunt. about goes back to the same thing control yeah because if some asshole on the internet can get
1:31:59 globe and occasionally the herald i read a newspaper every day. Newspapers are fucking huge. They were really, really important. Yeah. People have to realize that enough is enough. They want to figure out how to... I understand that. so you don't understand where I come from and you have male privilege. they can spend. You know, society has kept you down.
1:36:11 It's because this is one of the few places in the world where you can take yourself from nothing to something. I get up and I get to do whatever the fuck I want to do today for the most part. world do get out back and forth and yeah you you can do now because of this you You know, for a guy like you or I. And it's been transplanted to other countries.
1:38:44 and they all look the same, and nobody – it didn't know yeah nothing but you know to me i the chosen sport of the forbidden youth. Right. I fucking despise it because to me a pool hustler is a thief, is a con man. They would go in and say, I'll beat any asshole you got in here for whatever you want to bet. Miyamoto Musashi. Yeah, Musashi. guess, when the United States GIs went there.
1:42:28 States. I've talked about him on the podcast several times. gambling for big money on your your podcast or your broadcast rather when these race to hundreds and you'd go to shoot into that four-inch fucking hole on a diamond table, Without missing. was started in July of 2007. I mean, it's so crazy how mental of a game it is. it check it out it's paul newman a young Tom Cruise. But in that, there's a scene where Paul Newman has a quote,
1:47:02 I mean, you're a cue guy too. I joke a lot and it's only kind of half joke in that to be really good at pool, pool. If you're out of the pool hall for a day, you feel out of stroke. No. a lot of it is because maybe they don't So right now, this is his life, man. And every time, in Shane's case, when he's had some ups and downs, the downs all were revered has to have playability and it has to have design if a cue just has design people don't give
1:50:56 what he's doing. He figured it out. And the other thing is craftsmanship, people that make things, whether that's knives, guns, that to me is one of the coolest things in the world. And John's a friend of mine, and I've been to his shop. I went and shot a – did you ever see the documentary I did? It's hard to describe to people who don't piece of wood that's tapered
1:54:31 and you've got a nice wooden table and you want to put this circle of ivory in it. If you fuck up on the 99th time, you got to start over. Oh. So, you know, it's, I don't know, to me, that's the whole thing. It was me and my partner, Chad Pullman. And then for any photographers out there, it was a Nikon 70 to 200, two eight, uh, about a $1,500 and Eric walks up and out of nowhere hands me a cue.
1:58:47 I've taken a lot of photos, and I've got some photos, some unique photos, because I've been in places. It's basically F8 is in the middle of the focal range. So it allows you a depth of field to where you can see. If you're going to take a general you see any any one of the flyers any type of like promotional shit that we do that photo was taken with the lens that i was able to buy because eric gave me that cue yeah it's an interesting
2:00:19 You can't play in that end of the pool and not be wealthy. Same level, Balbushka level. That's like the real, in this day and age, I think, John, among the cognoscente, the people who know, and that's one of the cool things is John and Barry Zambotti are friends. I mean, you can buy one on the secondary market. Because so many people want his cues.
2:02:51 Cognoscenti cues. There's going to come a point in time where you run out of 58 Corvettes. They're insane. it's the same thing as like if the Beatles are playing, Yeah. Yeah. Russell Peters gave me a Breitling. I'm not trying to impress anybody. Meanwhile, you got a I just need to find out Why doesn't it have a battery? Dude, I got a Timex. That motherfucker gave me no problems, gave me a little light.
2:06:43 Yeah, it means something. on. He was like, yeah, check me out on this shit. with watches and cars, and Fuck, I'm there. because he gets off on the history and the performance and he understands it and he drives I mean, if you didn't know what the fuck you were doing, it would kill you. a corner and you gun the gas the wrong time, your ass end would totally kick out. They were
2:10:08 There's a lot of good things if you know how to drive. No, no, no, that's the Cayenne. What was the... You know why? maximum. Isn't that sick? We're talking about That's fucking... Shut the fuck up. Stop fucking around with those turbochargers It adds a little extra sound. It's barely noticeable now because they have twin turbos. As it's going up like that.
2:13:04 I'm like, it's not crazy enough. Dude, I got to tell you, though, the thing you did that I will always – Yeah, they love it, but I give them the reality of driving that car. Chip Foose designed it and Troy Chapagne built it. do what I wanted them to do. I wanted them to make a car that I can drive. I wanted a car that... Show car. Trick suspension. Total show car. car and I was driving to the comic store every
2:15:32 To this day, I kind of miss it. has, the suspension is separated from the frame and the wheel is going sideways into the fender. Easily. fix it up make it cut all the bullshit, What did they figure out? ridiculously rugged ride A 528 Hemi. It was like 2004 or something like that. Kermit, if you find Kermit. They cut out all the weight. And that car is 502 horsepower, 2,900 pounds, and just fucking flies.
2:18:50 I'm not. Yeah, they got to find something that they like that you don't or you like that they don't so they hate you. Was that F1? I guess he's Indy. and put modern suspension on it and a 350-horsepower engine. Free at last. This is him crashing. because they say it's too fucking dangerous. do guys get killed. an oval. In F1, they've got What's that?
2:22:07 And what they do is TT stands for Tourist Trophy. At one time, There's no runoff areas. Oh, it's a giant deal. Oh, my God. MotoGP, which is like F1 for motorcycles. You die. I mean bike. Somewhere online, there's a greatest hits video of the wrecks. And he's dead. 1, 1,000. Nope. fuck. What's that mean? If you've never seen that video before, it was a video taken in Afghanistan of a 747 that it's taking off and then somewhere in the flight.
2:26:58 Here it is right here. He was a US soldier You're like After this Jesus! And the reality they've experienced and how much different that reality is than the reality of me or of a normal person who has not gone to war. Yeah. Well, that's when it starts getting interesting. Yeah, I agree. That's it. asked i'm as pro gender equality as i am pro gun control sure or pro gun ownership sure i should
2:30:03 the fuck they want. But believe me and trust me, it has nothing to do with anything except combat sports. fat stupid man hands and if you put a woman in a dress and if she had these man hands she'd be a Sure. No, what I'm saying is— Okay. in the Women's Pro Tour? Heist you. They don't have a deck. No. If they did do mushrooms, they would realize that you can have a rebirth
2:33:57 if there was some real Snooker money, Presidents. John Force will fuck himself. Oh, that's right. If you could build another car, what would you build? Yeah. Did you ever drive an Eleanor? It smells like gas. That motherfucker ruined me because it was four-wheel drive. actually an automatic which is one of the things i didn't like about it but you built a car and
2:36:53 Because of the amount of power. fucking power. Was there a blower on the motor? porsches everywhere so you can kind of slip under the radar people may not know exactly what the And the dude, it was a black dude, of course, because they just have a way with words. I started understanding automotive technology. Right. Because before I came into it as a
