  Somewhere out there is a Chevy truck. And the person who drives it, well, is a Chevy person. You probably know one. Your buddy, your sister. Ones who always show up. They're the first to rise, the last to leave. They always have that little extra something. And maybe you've got it too. Chevrolet. Together, let's drive. Visit chevy.com/trucks to explore the lineup.

  Were you worried about what the 145% tariffs were doing to small businesses here in the U.S.? Is that why you're bringing him down?

• 1:15Speaker 03

  No, no. No, I...

• 1:18Speaker 02

  Should I call him again? Yes.

• 1:27Speaker 03

  But China's not doing any business. They were doing...

• 1:30Speaker 04

  Adam Freeling keeps calling me. Yo, what's up? I'm live.

• 1:33Adam Friedland?

  Assalamualaikum. Hassan, how are you, Habibi?

• 1:37Speaker 04

  I'm good. What's up? What's going on?

• 1:39Adam Friedland?

  Okay. I... It's Fri... Friday?

• 1:43Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 1:43Adam Friedland?

  Friday, finally. It's happening.

• 1:46Speaker 04

  Okay. What's happening?

• 1:48Adam Friedland?

  Your episode is coming out.

• 1:50Speaker 04

  Oh, wow. Okay. It's finally... It's finally happening.

• 1:53Speaker 06

  It's here, Hassan.

• 1:55Speaker 04

  I'm overjoyed. Thank you.

• 1:57Speaker 06

  And I just want to thank you for your friendship...

• 1:59Adam Friedland?

  And your solidarity that you've shown me throughout this entire crazy period of my life.

• 2:06Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 2:07Adam Friedland?

  I...

• 2:08Speaker 04

  The answer is yes. I will hide you.

• 2:28Adam Friedland?

  Hey guys, ladies and gentlemen, the bitch is back. It's Adam Friedland. I've come back. Listen, it's been a month, we've been gone, and, um, I don't know. To be honest, there have been a lot of changes in my life, and I'm feeling good again, you know? The good news is, I got engaged to a woman. What else? I read the Quran, finally. I finally got around to re-watching Donnie Darko, which I found to be just as trippy as the first time that I saw it, when I was a baby. Today is the final installment of our last episode series. The guest is Hasan Piker.

• 3:08Adam Friedland?

  Many people have noted that he was perhaps a protege of mine. I think we finally passed the torch during this episode. I think the teacher has become the master. What is it? The master has become the student. The master has become the student. The hunter has become the hunted. Next month, the new season of The Adam Friedland Show will be launching. This is, um... This is a massive roll of the dice on my part.

• 3:51Adam Friedland?

  Throwing my life savings behind the project right now. My partner has moved on. I just can't stand what's happening right now in this country. I can't sit back and watch democracy be assaulted over and over again. I know how to fix this. And you have to trust me, America. So next month, it begins. Get ready, folks. I guess I'll end this by saying what no one has the fucking guts to say. President Donald John Trump, you're fired.

• 4:49Adam Friedland?

  Fucking doing your, doing your fucking clown shit. Yeah, no clown shit here. No clown shit. What do you want me to, you want me, are we rehearsing the walk? Like, is there a specific type of walk? Do you need to rehearse it? I thought you were a physically fit man. Ladies and gentlemen, a special introduction today. Merriam-Webster's dictionary defines hero as a mythological or legendary figure, often of divine descent endowed with great strength. An illustrious warrior, a person admired for achievements and noble qualities. One who shows great courage. But to me, my hero is our next guest. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Turkish political commentator Hasan Piker, everyone.

• 5:41Adam Friedland?

  Nice muscles, dude.

• 5:43Speaker 04

  Thank you.

• 5:44Adam Friedland?

  Okay, you, you got a great bod, though.

• 5:46Speaker 04

  Thank you.

• 5:47Adam Friedland?

  Great arms, great chest. Have you, you've, how long have you been getting muscles for?

• 5:52Speaker 04

  Um, yeah, I used to be really, uh, super fat. And then I moved to LA and I was living with a bunch of personal trainers.

• 6:03Adam Friedland?

  So sick.

• 6:04Speaker 04

  And, uh, no, it's because I was broke.

• 6:07Adam Friedland?

  Do you attribute any, any modicum of your success to just to being a big, strong guy?

• 6:13Speaker 04

  Being attractive?

• 6:14Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, if you were like a Quasimodo, would people be listening to you about like?

• 6:19Speaker 04

  No. I mean, people would probably still be listening, but like not to the same degree.

• 6:22Adam Friedland?

  They wouldn't be looking, though.

• 6:24Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 6:24Adam Friedland?

  Yeah.

• 6:24Speaker 04

  I think like, this is actually kinda serious. If I'm gassing myself up a little bit, which is weird.

• 6:30Adam Friedland?

  Get serious.

• 6:31Speaker 04

  But, um, I do think that, like, there's a lot of these like Andrew Tate types out there, right? Which is really funny because he's like, I mean, he dresses super European, like, super gay. Like unimaginably gay. He wears like those little slipper loafers and like super tight pants. There's this entire, like, new wing of, I guess, right wing adjacent content creators that are all like former life insurance salesmen and shit.

• 7:00Speaker 04

  And they all present themselves as like super masculine alpha dogs. And I feel like the way I look kind of counters that a little bit because like, you know, you look like the archetypical stereotypical leftist guy.

• 7:16Adam Friedland?

  What's that supposed to mean?

• 7:18Speaker 04

  Just handsome.

• 7:19Adam Friedland?

  You're coming on my damn show and fucking selling my ass immediately? Do you dress gay like Andrew Tate?

• 7:25Speaker 04

  No, I just dress gay because I'm gay.

• 7:27Adam Friedland?

  No.

• 7:28Speaker 04

  But I'm saying that.

• 7:29Adam Friedland?

  You got stylus and stuff?

• 7:30Speaker 04

  No.

• 7:30Adam Friedland?

  How much Rick Owens have you bought?

• 7:32Speaker 04

  This is the only, this is the Doc Martens one and these are the only.

• 7:36Adam Friedland?

  That's like, those are literally the collabo Rick Owens?

• 7:38Speaker 04

  Yeah, they're sick though. They're super comfy and also relatively affordable, like 300 bucks.

• 7:43Adam Friedland?

  Wait, so let's, let's back up. You grew up in Turkey?

• 7:47Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 7:47Adam Friedland?

  What's like the vibe there?

• 7:50Speaker 04

  Chill.

• 7:50Adam Friedland?

  You think?

• 7:51Speaker 04

  I think, yeah.

• 7:52Adam Friedland?

  I was in an econ class in college freshman year, like 8 a.m. class and there was like a crew of internationals and they all were Hermes like belt, Gucci shoes, like you know, the kind of like, the international students at college, they have blast sigs outside the library.

• 8:08Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 8:08Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, um, but I was like, they were all talking some, some type of language. I'm like, what the fuck kind of language is that?

• 8:15Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 8:16Adam Friedland?

  And it was a, it was your, it was what, uh?

• 8:18Speaker 04

  My, my language, my people's language?

• 8:19Adam Friedland?

  Turk, what the fuck, Turkish, yeah, yeah.

• 8:21Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 8:22Adam Friedland?

  It was that language.

• 8:23Speaker 04

  They were all.

• 8:24Adam Friedland?

  It's very like, ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa.

• 8:26Speaker 04

  Is, is it like that?

• 8:27Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, it's very like milk, milk throat.

• 8:29Speaker 04

  I don't know if that's Turkish, bro.

• 8:32Adam Friedland?

  No, what is it?

• 8:33Speaker 04

  I feel like Turkish is more like, um.

• 8:35Adam Friedland?

  Like a snobby Arabic, like we're a little bit European.

• 8:38Speaker 04

  That definitely is the vibe. You're 100% right. Turks would get very mad if you ever call them Arab, like they're not Arab anyway, but like still there's like Arabic background.

• 8:47Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, everyone thinks that's some type of Arab over here.

• 8:50Speaker 04

  Yeah, Turkey also rebranded under Erdogan, uh, is called Turquia now. They like, they changed it. They're like, everyone has to say the, you know, the Turkish way of saying.

• 9:01Adam Friedland?

  That's kind of, that, that, I like that actually.

• 9:04Speaker 04

  I don't think people are doing it though.

• 9:05Adam Friedland?

  No?

• 9:06Speaker 04

  No.

• 9:06Adam Friedland?

  People don't, I mean, that's kind of disrespect if someone's just making up a different. Name for your country.

• 9:11Speaker 04

  I don't care.

• 9:12Adam Friedland?

  Let's back up, uh, cuz my audience is like, pretty mature intellectual style. So, um, many of them might.

• 9:19Speaker 04

  I've seen this on Reddit.

• 9:20Adam Friedland?

  Many of them might not know, I don't know what you're talking about. Many of them might not know, like, you know, streaming or games or whatever. Mine, Minecraft or whatever. So could you like, just explain for our audience, like, what, what it is? Like, how would you explain what it is that you do?

• 9:36Speaker 04

  The way I, uh, explain it to, you know, like, mainstream media people is like, I'm basically like a Rush Limbaugh, without crippling opiate addiction or brain cancer.

• 9:48Adam Friedland?

  But you're just as, you're just as hateful.

• 9:50Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 9:51Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 9:51Speaker 04

  Against white people, though. It's like a reverse Rush Limbaugh.

• 9:54Adam Friedland?

  You, you're, you hate white people?

• 9:56Speaker 04

  No, I love white people. I'm white.

• 9:58Adam Friedland?

  You do that, cuz I have a Turkish friend that tries to play it like he's a.

• 10:02Speaker 04

  Tries to play it.

• 10:02Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, yeah. Tries to play like he's not a, like he's not, you're from the Euro side of Istanbul. But like, you have to just know everything?

• 10:13Adam Friedland?

  Like, you have to have an opinion, right?

• 10:15Speaker 04

  I mean, I, I do.

• 10:18Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, but like, that's, you have to have an opinion on something, right?

• 10:21Speaker 04

  Not really. I, I, there's plenty of things I don't have an opinion on.

• 10:24Adam Friedland?

  You're doing it in real time, right?

• 10:25Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:25Adam Friedland?

  So like, you're like, streaming eight hours a day. A news article drops, and then you just drop, drop knowledge on it, right?

• 10:32Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:33Adam Friedland?

  But like, that's really fast.

• 10:35Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 10:36Adam Friedland?

  But like, what if you're wrong?

• 10:37Speaker 04

  Um, sometimes I do get stuff wrong, like, I'll, I'll have.

• 10:41Adam Friedland?

  Like the whole Israel thing? Wait, can I try it? Can you just like, let's say, give me a breaking news?

• 10:46Speaker 04

  Okay, and you wanna give a take?

• 10:48Adam Friedland?

  I'm gonna give an opinion.

• 10:50Speaker 04

  Okay, breaking news.

• 10:50Adam Friedland?

  Cuz I have an opinion on, I don't believe in anything anymore.

• 10:53Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 10:54Adam Friedland?

  So now I'm gonna try to do your thing.

• 10:56Speaker 04

  Breaking news, the United Nations have come out with a new report that halves the number of child and women fatalities since October 7 in the latest siege that Israel conducted in Gaza.

• 11:09Adam Friedland?

  I don't understand what any of those words mean. Can you make an easier one? Like, what, Kamala Harris, like, got shot in the head or something?

• 11:17Speaker 04

  That's not easy, okay.

• 11:18Adam Friedland?

  That halves.

• 11:19Speaker 04

  Vice President.

• 11:20Adam Friedland?

  Has the October 7th.

• 11:22Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 11:23Adam Friedland?

  Why are you even going there for?

• 11:24Speaker 04

  I gave you a real USA Today headline from yesterday.

• 11:26Adam Friedland?

  Just tell me one, just make one up. You say it just happened. And I gotta be on Hassan Baby's stream.

• 11:34Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 11:34Adam Friedland?

  And I gotta like, go like this and like tell.

• 11:37Speaker 04

  Yeah, you have to be.

• 11:37Adam Friedland?

  I have to tell the kids. Okay, so give me one.

• 11:40Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 11:45Speaker 04

  After a visit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Joe Biden shit in his diapers.

• 11:54Adam Friedland?

  After a visit with Chinese leader?

• 11:58Speaker 04

  You asked for an easy one.

• 11:59Adam Friedland?

  Well, give it, give it to me, let's, let's run it again.

• 12:01Speaker 04

  Okay. After a visit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Joe Biden was reported to shit in his diapers.

• 12:17Speaker 04

  That's, that's it.

• 12:20Speaker 04

  That's what I would have said, actually. That's, you just, bro, are you coming for my shit?

• 12:25Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, that's, I'm just, I'm just shooting from the hip. I went on your stream, right?

• 12:29Speaker 04

  Uh huh.

• 12:29Adam Friedland?

  And I was shocked. You have 25,000 people that are just constantly watching. What you're doing has more of a similarity, and this isn't condescending, to like, to like Jake Paul than like Wolf Blitzer, right? Because you are to some extent a content creator online that interfaces with an audience, right?

• 12:52Speaker 04

  When I started writing and like doing video essays and stuff on The Young Turks, like, the space online for leftist political commentary was super marginal, like it was non-existent. And there were some like, old school radio talk show guys like, you know, Sam Seder, I would say Jank was a little bit on that like left adjacent content creator side on the internet, but everything was dominated by right wing politics. And all these fucking neck bearded nerds were just like really annoying. They weren't cool, they were not charismatic, they were not entertaining. And they were basically.

• 13:32Adam Friedland?

  And it was video games too, video, like a lot of.

• 13:34Speaker 04

  Yeah, they, I mean, but I like video games too, I play video games as well, and I knew like. I knew that there was enough people that had similar opinions to myself that would appreciate a perspective that they rarely get to hear from a dude who isn't like a super Tumblr guy. Because there was definitely at this time.

• 13:55Adam Friedland?

  What's a Tumblr guy?

• 13:56Speaker 04

  Like a dude who, like, people that grew up on Tumblr. Like, there's, there were a lot of people on the left.

• 14:02Adam Friedland?

  You used to be able to be off from Tumblr, but they got rid of it.

• 14:05Speaker 04

  I never really went on Tumblr, so I can't.

• 14:08Adam Friedland?

  They used to show, they used to show stuff you could be off to, and then they got rid of it.

• 14:12Speaker 04

  Like furry porn, is that what you're talking about?

• 14:15Adam Friedland?

  Furry porn?

• 14:16Speaker 04

  Furry porn, yeah. That's what they had on Tumblr.

• 14:19Adam Friedland?

  Do you have a real specific way that you come?

• 14:21Speaker 04

  A real specific way? Sometimes, sometimes.

• 14:25Adam Friedland?

  You need like a whole.

• 14:26Speaker 04

  If I come so hard, I can, I literally cramp on my abs.

• 14:30Adam Friedland?

  That's not what I'm asking.

• 14:31Speaker 04

  What are you asking?

• 14:33Adam Friedland?

  You need like a scenario that's like, this is the one thing that makes me feel like God or something. Because for me, it's just kissing girl, you know, I love you, kind of missionary. Kind of over doggy at this point.

• 14:48Speaker 04

  Deep staring into the eyes.

• 14:50Adam Friedland?

  Do you think doggy is queer?

• 14:52Speaker 04

  Do I think doggy is queer?

• 14:54Adam Friedland?

  Yeah, even if it's with a girl, it's a little bit like.

• 14:57Speaker 04

  It's a little gay?

• 14:58Adam Friedland?

  It's not, it's like a little bit.

• 15:00Speaker 04

  I, I, I get what you're saying.

• 15:03Adam Friedland?

  It's a little, I mean, and that's chill. I'm not saying that it's a little queer.

• 15:08Speaker 04

  We're pro queer in this space.

• 15:10Adam Friedland?

  No, I'm anti-doggy though, at this point.

• 15:12Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 15:12Adam Friedland?

  I like me.

• 15:13Speaker 04

  Okay, so you're anti-queer.

• 15:14Adam Friedland?

  For my, for my sex, yeah. I like, I like kissing, I love you. Um, and then bust, I'm sorry. And then, how was that for you?

• 15:30Speaker 04

  Uh huh.

• 15:30Adam Friedland?

  And then like, um, and then.

• 15:37Adam Friedland?

  I like kiss and then say, "What are we even doing?" Do you say that?

• 15:44Speaker 04

  No.

• 15:44Adam Friedland?

  You've never done that?

• 15:46Speaker 04

  No, I've never done that.

• 15:47Adam Friedland?

  You gotta go with a sweetie and kiss and be like, "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills." You've never done that?

• 15:54Speaker 04

  No.

• 15:55Adam Friedland?

  Why? Because you're on fucking stream talking to these psycho's?

• 15:58Speaker 04

  That's what I'm doing, I'm too busy.

• 16:00Adam Friedland?

  But here's a question, okay? Like, there are comedians I know that are on the road 52 weeks a year, right? And they're doing observational comedy, right? They're... But at a certain point, like, if they're observing society but they're not participating in society...

• 16:14Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 16:14Adam Friedland?

  Then like, how... Like, it doesn't... Like, in my mind, I'm like, "That's just bizarre."

• 16:19Speaker 04

  Yeah, that's what happens with Kevin Hart.

• 16:21Adam Friedland?

  If you're in a chair, like, if you're in a fucking... You got ergonomic, probably... Do you have a racing seat, kind of thing?

• 16:29Speaker 04

  You were in my house, you saw my chair, you sat on one of my chairs. You don't remember? I have a...

• 16:36Adam Friedland?

  I don't remember.

• 16:37Speaker 04

  I have a Herman Miller.

• 16:39Adam Friedland?

  Herman Miller.

• 16:39Speaker 04

  Logitech edition, they sent it to me.

• 16:41Adam Friedland?

  I remember I went into your house and then you had a rag, you put it on my face. And then I woke up and then I had AOC written on my forehead.

• 16:49Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 16:50Adam Friedland?

  No, I mean like...

• 16:51Speaker 04

  That's what I do to people.

• 16:52Adam Friedland?

  But I'm saying it's like, if you... Because of the grind that you're on, it does preclude you from kind of... Like, how are you gonna be socialist if you ain't in society? If you're like a... You know what I mean? You know what I mean, like? And I'm not like criticizing, I'm saying like, you know, like interfacing...

• 17:13Speaker 04

  It sounds a lot like you're criticizing.

• 17:14Adam Friedland?

  No, it sounds like you're being defensive, bro.

• 17:16Speaker 04

  I'm being a little defensive.

• 17:18Adam Friedland?

  I know, but it feels like...

• 17:19Speaker 04

  I feel like I'm under attack.

• 17:20Adam Friedland?

  I'm saying like, you know, and it's... I'm not... I don't wanna go touch grass. Touch grass means, like, you have to, uh... Go not... Get off the computer, right?

• 17:30Speaker 04

  Yeah, go outside.

• 17:31Adam Friedland?

  Touch grass.

• 17:32Speaker 04

  Be one with nature.

• 17:33Adam Friedland?

  But it's weird to touch it. You walk on it.

• 17:35Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 17:36Adam Friedland?

  What do you mean?

• 17:36Speaker 04

  Take shoes off.

• 17:37Adam Friedland?

  Touch grass. Touch grass is what someone says that doesn't go outside, right?

• 17:42Speaker 04

  Ironic, you're... Ironically, you're vicious about it, but like, yes, if someone says touch grass... Like, no one who's already in the process of being outside is like, "Touch grass."

• 17:50Adam Friedland?

  You're observing through the internet, right?

• 17:55Adam Friedland?

  And kind of it precludes you a lot of the time, I would imagine, from like interfacing with.

• 18:01Speaker 04

  Real humans?

• 18:02Adam Friedland?

  Your community, your society.

• 18:04Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 18:05Adam Friedland?

  You know?

• 18:05Speaker 04

  I, that's why I try to, like, every moment that I'm not on stream.

• 18:11Adam Friedland?

  Yeah.

• 18:11Speaker 04

  I try to, you know, do that sort of thing. I go outside.

• 18:14Adam Friedland?

  You touch grass?

• 18:15Speaker 04

  I touch grass, yeah.

• 18:16Adam Friedland?

  What do you do, like, after you get off stream? 8pm? You take the dog out?

• 18:21Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 18:21Adam Friedland?

  And then sunset strip?

• 18:23Speaker 04

  I go to.

• 18:23Adam Friedland?

  Oh, yeah! My mind has been in a... Like, what do you do for fun?

• 18:31Speaker 04

  Um.

• 18:31Adam Friedland?

  What do you spend the money on?

• 18:33Speaker 04

  I, not really anything. That's the whole point.

• 18:35Adam Friedland?

  So what's the point of money? Like, what do you?

• 18:36Speaker 04

  But that's why I'm saying, it's like, you can't go and like, quote-unquote, "purchase me" to change my attitude or anything, because like, I, a while ago, I actually said this on camera, and like, it got misconstrued, and people were like yelling at me, where I said something along the lines of like, "I have enough money for the essentials," which I've elevated for sure, like, it's the luxurious.

• 18:59Adam Friedland?

  For the brand essentials? For that one?

• 19:01Speaker 04

  No, not the brand essentials. No, um, like, I have enough money that I can take care of my family, right? I give back a lot to charities and stuff like that, and do fundraisers, and, uh, and beyond that, like, I, like, I'm, I'm super comfortable. It's not like my lifestyle has... Yeah, but I'm saying like, my lifestyle hasn't changed. Like, I was broke, and I was fucking eight hours a day streaming, and now I'm rich, and I'm eight hours a day streaming. Like, none of that changed. The only thing that changed is like, I now have the need to like, fly to New York if I want to, and also have the same exact setup in New York that I can carry with me and then stream in New York. That's the only difference.

• 19:46Adam Friedland?

  You're like, you could bring your computer to New York?

• 19:49Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 19:49Adam Friedland?

  That's your flex?

• 19:50Speaker 04

  That's my...

• 19:51Adam Friedland?

  Why don't you get a Porsche 911?

• 19:53Speaker 04

  I got a Porsche. I bought a Porsche. I bought a Taycan.

• 19:55Adam Friedland?

  If I was you, I'd be bludgeoning peasants.

• 19:58Speaker 04

  Yeah, I bought a, I bought a Taycan. People got mad at me for that, too.

• 20:01Adam Friedland?

  You got a Taycan?

• 20:02Speaker 04

  Yeah, it's the EV, it's the EV Porsche.

• 20:04Adam Friedland?

  Oh, electric?

• 20:05Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 20:06Adam Friedland?

  Nice, dude. Democrat, dude.

• 20:09Speaker 04

  I don't give a shit about that.

• 20:10Adam Friedland?

  Okay, so let's go to the people that are in the chat that are consuming it. Like, you've been doing Twitch since, what, 2018?

• 20:17Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 20:18Adam Friedland?

  So has the chat-

• 20:19Speaker 04

  Full-time since 2020.

• 20:20Adam Friedland?

  So the chat as an entity, right? Has the chat changed?

• 20:25Speaker 04

  It just grew. Like, when I first started, I had like 30 people watching.

• 20:29Adam Friedland?

  Yeah.

• 20:30Speaker 04

  And then, yeah, all of them were beating off, right? And then it grew to like 300 to 1,000, you know what I mean? And then 2020 is when I went full-time.

• 20:41Adam Friedland?

  But it also had to have changed because they're in middle school now, right?

• 22:11Speaker 04

  A lot of people did grow up alongside, like, my content, for sure. Like, there are a lot of people that have watched 2020, and in 2020, they were like- You know, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, and now, four years later, they're in their twenties, all the way to like, late twenties.

• 22:27Adam Friedland?

  Yeah.

• 22:28Speaker 04

  So it is that, that part definitely does change as well, for sure. Like, my audience ages with me.

• 22:33Adam Friedland?

  I would imagine they're alone. I mean, a lot of these guys are too, you know? And sometimes I do think like...

• 22:40Speaker 04

  I think some people just like, throw it on as background noise. Some people just have it on as, as like, as a way to keep themselves informed.

• 22:48Adam Friedland?

  You ever meet Obama?

• 22:49Speaker 04

  No, but I have linked up with the Pod Save America people before, have been on their pod.

• 22:54Adam Friedland?

  I thought you were gonna say, you linked up with Obama.

• 22:56Speaker 04

  I have not linked up with Obama.

• 22:58Adam Friedland?

  Yeah.

• 22:59Speaker 04

  That'd be cool, though.

• 23:00Adam Friedland?

  You got probably in your phone, you got like, you got some phone numbers in there.

• 23:04Speaker 04

  You got some phone numbers in there?

• 23:06Adam Friedland?

  Nah, no one.

  The shirt is kind of like, you're doing like a American Idiot, Green Day kinda situation.

• 25:50Speaker 04

  Yeah. So that was, um, that's, I gotta stop wearing my friends' merchandise. That was my, that was a dude who was doing graphics design at the Young Turks at the time. And he's an anarchist, and he gave me the shirt to be like, "Hey, can you post this?" And I was like, "Sure." And I thought it was sick.

• 26:07Adam Friedland?

  He's an anarchist?

• 26:09Speaker 04

  Yeah.

  He's like the Joker? Why don't we get a crib in the fucking hills?

  Lloyd's the gay Chinese assistant.

  Yeah, no, that was a great character. I'll take it.

• 26:44Adam Friedland?

  Ari said a lot of things to Lloyd in that show.

• 26:47Speaker 04

  Yeah, he really did.

• 26:48Adam Friedland?

  Alright, so this is...

• 26:48Speaker 04

  That was probably the most real part about that show.

• 26:52Adam Friedland?

  This one, you got killed on this one.

• 26:54Speaker 04

  Okay, let's see it.

• 26:55Adam Friedland?

  This one you got killed on.

  Yeah, it looks almost like you're being like a little bit.

• 27:02Speaker 04

  So, that is another fucking like merch thing that they sent me. And I was wearing it, and that lady, that lady literally, that lady was like, can I have that? Like, can I have that sweater?

  Who is that guy?

• 27:34Adam Friedland?

  That's you, no?

• 27:35Speaker 04

  No.

• 27:39Adam Friedland?

• 28:53Adam Friedland?

  So what do you think, Hasan, let's go back to politics. What do you think, who are you going for in Ukraine? What side are you on, on that?

• 29:00Speaker 04

  I'm on, I'm on, I'm on nobody's side. I mean, I think Vladimir Putin is bad, and what he did was wrong.

• 29:07Adam Friedland?

  You think Ukrainian guys are pissed at Gaza?

• 29:11Speaker 04

  I would be.

• 29:12Adam Friedland?

  They're like, damn, they're clout sharks.

• 29:15Speaker 04

  Yeah, they're in a weird predicament, because Zelensky is like, super pro-Israel.

• 29:21Adam Friedland?

  He's Jon Stewart. He's the Jon Stewart of Ukraine.

• 29:24Speaker 04

  That's true, he was, he used to be. But, but he's like, he's like, has to be super pro-Israel, because like, he's pro-NATO, he's pro like, American State Department, right? And that's what the American State Department is signaling, that they're like, super pro-Israel. Meanwhile, in the early stages, when Russia was invading Ukraine, Zelensky was like, "Hey, can we get the Iron Dome? Like, that would be nice." They're fucking shelling us, like, nah, stop. And Benjamin Netanyahu was like, "Fuck no." He stopped it.

• 29:55Adam Friedland?

  You know all this stuff?

• 29:56Speaker 04

  Yeah, it's our fucking, it's our tech, as Americans, like, it's our tech to give to Ukraine. And Benjamin Netanyahu was like, "Nope."

• 30:03Adam Friedland?

  You know how I feel about Ukraine versus Russia?

• 30:04Speaker 04

  How?

• 30:05Adam Friedland?

  Sounds about white, dude.

• 30:09Adam Friedland?

  Not my problem.

• 30:10Speaker 04

  That's...

• 30:11Adam Friedland?

  That is not my problem. So you ever done, like, celebrity fighting?

• 30:15Speaker 04

  I think it's silly.

• 30:16Adam Friedland?

  What, you just, you hit, you could just hit like, I don't know? Can you admit, at this point, that when Sam Hyde did that video, that it was very funny?

• 30:28Speaker 04

  No.

• 30:29Adam Friedland?

  I'm friends with you. That was very funny.

• 30:32Speaker 04

  I always, like, I had no idea who the fuck this dude was, at all.

• 30:36Adam Friedland?

  "I'm gonna kill you!" That's, he was doing, uh...

• 30:39Speaker 04

  At the time, I didn't know who this guy was, right? And I'm like, "Why is this fucking ugly freak, like, yelling about me all the time?" Like, I just didn't even know.

• 30:47Adam Friedland?

  You should have hit me up, and I would have crafted your, your response. You gotta do like, your own character, do like, an Iron Sheik, or something.

• 30:55Speaker 04

  The reason why I didn't do that...

• 30:56Adam Friedland?

  "Fuck to you, Sam Hyde!"

• 30:57Speaker 04

  The reason, the reason...

• 30:58Adam Friedland?

  "Sam Hyde, fuck to you!" Yeah.

• 31:01Speaker 04

  The reason why I didn't do that...

• 31:02Adam Friedland?

  That's a dub, bro.

• 31:03Speaker 04

  Is because, I, I don't fuck with those guys.

• 31:05Adam Friedland?

  I'm not saying you have to go to the celebrity boxing event with KSI, and like, what's...

• 31:10Speaker 04

  I mean, that's what he was doing, he was on, I think he was literally on the KSI boxing event.

• 31:15Adam Friedland?

  So you, I'm not saying you have to do that, but I'm saying, like, if you're like... If you're responding in earnest, that's an elf, just for the internet.

• 31:24Speaker 04

  But I didn't respond at all.

• 31:25Adam Friedland?

  Either you don't say anything, or you do the Iron Sheik style character.

• 31:30Speaker 04

  That's why I did that.

• 31:31Adam Friedland?

  Where you're like, Bernie Sanders will fuck your ass, like, and my assistant AOC. The beautiful AOC, you know, you could have like, we could have written this out, it could have been great.

• 31:41Speaker 04

  Well, the reason why I did not respond is literally because I was like, I don't want to fucking be associated with this dude at all.

• 31:48Adam Friedland?

  Let's go back.

• 31:49Speaker 04

  To Israel-Palestine.

• 31:50Adam Friedland?

  No, I don't want to talk about that. I want to talk about like, you have to comment on the world all the time. And it's kind of just like, the news, I mean, it's kind of at a certain point, it's like, it kind of just, it stinks.

• 32:05Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 32:05Adam Friedland?

  The news stinks.

• 32:06Speaker 04

  The way I see it is, if I get, if I'm gonna be serious, the way I see it is if I get like, um, I don't know, a hundred people to join a union. Or Hamas.

• 32:18Adam Friedland?

  Yeah.

• 32:18Speaker 04

  Uh, which is kind of like a union. Um, if I get a hundred people to join a union. If I,

• 32:26Speaker 04

  if I get a hundred people to join a union, if I get a hundred people to like, engage in local organizing, uh, or to even like run for local office, or, um, you know, we saw this with the student protests at all the campuses, like, I went to the UCLA encampment and everybody, like, so many people came up and were like, dude, you know, I can't believe you're here, like, you played a big role. There were organizers that were basically putting the entire encampment together, that were saying like, you got me started on this journey. Like, I joined SJP because of you. And to me, that's justice for Palestine. So, for me, that's like, that's why I do it.

• 33:06Adam Friedland?

  Sarah Jessica Parker, I thought.

• 33:07Speaker 04

  Yeah, Sarah Jessica Parker, that's what he was saying.

• 33:10Adam Friedland?

  I joined, I joined Sarah Jessica. Yeah, okay, keep going, sorry.

• 33:13Speaker 04

  But, but like, but that is the, that is the overall reason, like, there's a lot of ups and downs.

• 33:18Adam Friedland?

  You're saying if I can change one life.

• 33:20Speaker 04

  I mean, if I can get more people to pay attention to this sort of stuff and to make a big fuss about it, hopefully, I think there will be a snowball effect and it will, it will get others motivated and it'll give courage to others to also go out and speak out on these injustices. Can I pee? Am I allowed?

• 33:43Speaker 04

  Come on, in your mouth.

• 33:44Adam Friedland?

  How long have we done?

• 33:45Speaker 04

  I wanna keep going, I just wanna need to pee real quick. I've been holding it and I've been fidgeting a lot.
