  My handshake is better than anything I ever signs, right here.

• 0:18Patrick Bet-David?

  You are a one of one?

• 0:19Speaker 00

  My son's right there. I don't think I've ever said this before.

• 0:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, weekend's around the corner with a lot of stories, folks, a lot of stories. Apple lost $268 billion in market cap yesterday since they announced that the prices on everything's gonna go up and then Microsoft followed suit and Tom's like, what do you want them to do? Prices for chips went up. They have to do it. It's not like they need to pass the price to somebody. So what happens there? And by the way, they took ahead. They probably knew this was gonna happen. Then you have this video game that's coming out, GTA, okay? I don't know what, at first I thought it was different initials, but they had to correct me because one of them I said was a very bad initial allegedly, acronym. So GTA, already a billion pre-orders. This game's not coming out until November of this year. They've already

• 1:08Patrick Bet-David?

  sold a billion. The average game is 79.99, the standard. The ultimate one is like a hundred bucks, 99. This has never happened before. They did a commercial, their second trailer, Vinny, I don't know if you saw this or not, Tom. Do you know on their second trailer, how many views their second trailer to promote the video game had within 24 hours? How many views, second trailer within 24 hours, this video game?

• 1:31Speaker 02

  20 million.

• 1:31Patrick Bet-David?

  That's a lot. That's like a movie premiere.

• 1:33Speaker 02

  That's a movie premiere.

• 1:34Patrick Bet-David?

  24 hours.

• 1:35Speaker 03

  This thing, I'd be willing to bet it had a billion views.

• 1:38Patrick Bet-David?

  450 million views within 24 hours was the trailer when it came out. So there's a lot of things with that. We'll talk about it. They're saying it's gonna break a record, selling 40 to 45 million of the video game at a hundred bucks. Think about the kind of money this is gonna make. So it's very, very big. They haven't done this for 12, 13 years. So the next one's coming up. Venezuela, horrendous earthquake. I'm getting messages. I have a lot of friends in Venezuela and I'm checking with a couple of the guys that I'm talking to, like this many people are missing, that many people are missing. Yesterday, we got a manek from Tim Ryan. Ryan sent him a neck about a doctor that's working in a hospital. She went in the streets to work. It's that bad. Fifty-four thousand people are missing in Venezuela after the 7.4

• 2:22Patrick Bet-David?

  and 7.6 earthquake. Our prayers goes out to everybody in Venezuela. That's I've been through earthquakes when I lived in Northridge, the big one. I was in Northridge when a big one hit and it lasted 40 seconds. They said this lasted 40, 45 seconds. And you just see the buildings coming down. You see families running around. We'll show some clips on that and react to another stories. A pastor beat up apparently a neighbor. And at first, when you see this clip, you're like, what is wrong with a pastor beating up a neighbor? Then he gave his argument. Then you're like, good for this pastor for beating up the neighbor. You're like, it's not often that you support a pastor. I don't know what prayer. I don't know what scripture he was reading. But he beat him up and one of the neighbors like, yeah, these neighbors would always call the

• 3:04Patrick Bet-David?

  N-word with us and all this other stuff. So, yeah, we'll cover that. Then there's another story with Maldonys three candidates winning. One of the candidates said, I wipe myself with the American flag. That's who won. These people hate America. Hate America. And they're getting elected. And it's so bad that even on The View, one of the girls had to tell Joy, Joy, this is what these people said. And if you're not too careful, you accept them into the Democratic Party, it's going to be a mess for you because they're far left. So Democrats are worried about what's going to happen with them come 2026 and 2028. Then there's an interview, two different actresses. One of them is this girl from, what is it called? The Supergirl? Supergirl. And her name is Millie Alcock. So her, so Millie, she's given an interview and in

• 3:48Patrick Bet-David?

  this interview, she's saying, you know, maybe they may be transgender and maybe they're probably, you just have to see the way she's doing the interview. I don't want to, I want you to watch how she reacts to it. Then you got Indy Navarrete, who is like Vinnie's latest crush, which I don't blame her. She's, she's beautiful. Amazing actress. And she's an amazing actress in obsession. You should see the contrast of these two different interviews. And you tell me who you like more and who you want to support more. We'll show both. There's this mother in 2021, very dark story here, very, very dark story here. She drowns her 15 year old.

• 4:23Speaker 03

  15 month old.

• 4:24Patrick Bet-David?

  I'm sorry, 15 month old. Then the dad and the other kid come. And she's allegedly starts stabbing them.

• 4:30Speaker 03

  Stabbing them.

• 4:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Then she goes to court and you know what the judge says? The judge says, well, this is because of the reaction from COVID. Apparently they let her go. In the parking lot, she's being interviewed. In the interview, I don't even want to say anything. I just want you to see, let's react to it together. You and I, I'll show that to you here in a minute. Housing bill. Everybody's like, this is great. This is a big bill. President is like, timeout. I know both of you guys want it and this is a slam dunk. Guess what? This is not going through unless you pass the voting bill. So everybody's like, wait a minute, this is not good. This is not this, this is not that. We're gonna see if he's got enough leverage. To pull that off and then we already talked about Apple raising prices. Calci. Is apparently about to get a, you know, valuation of $40 billion. The entire market is reacting to it.

• 5:17Patrick Bet-David?

  There's a lot of people in politics that don't like Calci and they don't like poly market, Tom. I know Tom wants to whistle sometimes, but they don't like Calci and they don't like poly market. And the reason why they don't like it is because. They're saying the polls. You were talking about this.

• 5:30Speaker 03

  The industry of politics, they want those polls. They don't want the public to come to have an alternative view.

• 5:35Patrick Bet-David?

  And why? Because people trust Calci and poly more than they trust. Polls and they don't want that because they, they, they want to use that manipulative card. That they had for many years. And then I got one story. Crazy story. Maybe not the most exciting story, but it's a story I want to talk to you about. An organization that's been around since 1948. That they've been predicting. Forecasting what's going to happen to the market. They've been accurate 94.7% of the time. Yes. They just made a prediction of what's going to happen in 2030s. And it's not good. We'll talk about it. I still believe the future looks bright, but we're gonna.

• 6:12Speaker 03

  Thanks for that, Pat. Started off on the right note today.

• 6:14Patrick Bet-David?

  For sure. We're gonna talk about the story and then I saw this one interview with this fellow. Every time I see him, I forget what his name is. He's so good. He's interviewing. The lady from Snap. And he says. Can you tell me what Snap stands for? Okay. And he says Snap stands for what, Tom? It stands for.

• 6:30Speaker 03

  Supplemental nutrition.

• 6:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Something, something.

• 6:33Speaker 03

  Assistance program.

• 6:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. And so he says, so what is nutritional about Coke? And the lady had a five second pause. Like she, there was a glitch. Brain stop. Yeah. And then they go back and forth and he says, who funds your program? She didn't want to answer it. Says, who funds your program? She didn't want to answer it. Then he brings out and says, look, it's just, I don't know. Says, don't worry, I have the list. These are the people that have, uh, funds your program. Don't you think they would fund your program? As long as you endorse their products being sold, that is not good for our kids. And then I'll play the clip for you, for you to react to it. And then we got a couple of other things we'll get into as well. So with that being said, for those of you guys, this is going to be the biggest webinar we've ever held, ever.

• 7:16Patrick Bet-David?

  I, we've held webinars on AI, on business, on economy, a lot of different things. The level of desire to be on this webinar on July 1st at 6pm, we've never seen anything like this before. And it's very exciting for me because it tells me people want to become better fathers and better parents. And there's so many things that we're going to be talking about on how to raise great kids. And the challenges of it that we all go through collectively together. I'm simply going to share with you what some of the mistakes I've personally made and what I've seen worked and what I've seen not work. And then 10 conversations that you need to have with your kids. And then a number of books that you ought to read as a father. So if you want to be a part of that, July 1st, 6pm, go to VTwebinar.com, register for it. Again, VTwebinar.com.

• 7:59Patrick Bet-David?

  I, I was visiting somebody who messaged me, they're like, hey, I just want you to know, it's a doctor. I just want you to know, we're all going to be on the webinar because we all want to be better parents. I'm like, that's great. The, the different range of people that are getting on this webinar is going to be exciting again. July 1st, 6pm, go to VTwebinar.com to register for it. With that being said, at 10 o'clock today, in about an hour, about 30 minutes, a doctor from Venezuela that's working in the fields, out there, is going to tell us exactly what's going on in the streets, not what we're hearing from news, telling us there's only 184, 185 dead, less than 200. They're saying the number could be in the thousands with 54, 55,000 people missing.

• 8:42Patrick Bet-David?

  But we will do that story at 10 o'clock because she's going to be calling in and she'll be on the Zoom with us. And she'll give us an update on what's going on over there. But with that being said, let's get right into the first story I want to get into. With everything that's going on is the housing bill. Where the president said, I'm not passing this unless if. So here we go. Trump canceled signing of the bipartisan housing bill. Until the Save America Act is passed. And the market says, you are out of your mind. Is this the clip, folks? Go ahead and play the clip. Go for it.

• 9:13Speaker 04

  If it came to your desk, sir, would you veto it?

• 9:15Adam Sosnick?

  About what?

• 9:16Speaker 04

  If the housing bill that you didn't sign today, if it came to your desk-

• 9:18Adam Sosnick?

  I said I'm not signing the housing bill. I want to see what happens with it. Look, the housing bill is housing. I made billions of dollars with housing. I know housing better than anybody, maybe anywhere. It's all about the interest rate. Lower the interest rates, you can have all the housing you want. But you have to understand, I don't want to hurt people that own houses too. These people, for the first time in their lives, they have valuable houses. They become rich. I don't want to hurt them either. What you want to do is what good for everyone? Get the interest rates down. We have this numbskull that was the head of the Fed before. And he's a stupid person. And we called him too late because he was too late with the interest rates all the time.

• 10:03Adam Sosnick?

  We need low interest rates. Low interest rates will solve everything. Will solve that. Now, despite that, we're doing well with housing. But where we're really doing well is oil is plummeting and-

• 10:16Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way, is this going to get to the saving act or no?

• 10:18Adam Sosnick?

  Affordability. We're doing-

• 10:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Guys in the back, can you pause it? Is this going to get to the saving act or no? The Save Act? Because it has to do with interest rates. Yes or no? Send me a text and let me know, guys, because I wanted the Save Act clip to be played. So, the Save America Act will be make significant election and voting reforms, including requiring voting ID at polling places and proof of citizenship before a person could register to vote. It has been rejected by Democrats. Trump has pushed Republicans into Senate to eliminate, modify the filibuster to get the bill through. Major leader John Thune has maintained Republicans don't have the votes to do so. So the president doesn't want to pass this without the SAVE Act. Tom, is that a good move by the president? Is he using the leverage to make sure the other thing gets passed?

• 11:06Speaker 03

  Yeah, he's trying to use leverage and people are on all sides of the aisle on this. Let's say where I am. He's trying to put pressure on John Thune and I'd like to see John Thune, rather than being this backdoor diplomat, I'd like to see John Thune walk to the microphone and say, "You know what? There are things this Senate and this Congress need to work on together. A balanced budget amendment, line item veto, and eliminating the filibuster. These things are holding us up on helping the American people. Those three things are. We need to eliminate the filibuster. We can't vote on the SAVE Act here because the Democrats are filibustering and I need 60 votes in the Senate. So I need people that want to step forward and do that, but the Dems don't want that.

• 11:51Speaker 03

  The Dems are filibustering in the Senate and you need 60 votes to bust the filibuster." So on one line, John Thune is correct. I don't have the votes. But on the other way, people are saying, "Well, then go to the microphone and tell the American people that it's time that we eliminate the filibuster so that we can't do it this way." Now then, but there's a lot of people in both chambers that want this housing act because we're going into an election year, Pat, and they want their fingerprints. Democrats and Republicans want their fingerprints on the housing act. I voted in favor of it. I want to stop BlackRock from buying up all the homes. They all want to run out with those messages. You know what I mean, Pat? They want to go to the microphone during their election cycle and run with that.

• 12:35Speaker 03

  So here's the bet Trump's making. There's a lot of people that want, a lot of people want to go out there. They want to do that. They want that. They want to go say they voted on housing. Well, that's great. It's going to say, "Right here on my desk and here's my pen." Oop, where'd my pen go? I'm not signing anything. So that's what Trump's trying to do to put the pressure. on them saying you gotta get the Save Act for unfortunately the Dems care more about voting and the populace the way they want it and are not going to vote for the Save Act the Dems will allow the Housing Act to die even though they could use it to get in their elections because they will never allow the Save Act because of all the reforms to patriotic voting in this country.

• 13:16Patrick Bet-David?

  So by the way, at the end of that clip, I want to show you this, today's housing conference and signing is hereby canceled until such time as we pass the desperately needed Save America Act, I agree, which I consider to be a national emergency, thank you for your attention to this matter, this is a top three issue for me, I agree, and it ought to be a top three issue for you as well, and it ought to be a top three issue for anybody that wants honest elections, including the Democrats, and by the way, do you know this is a 94% issue for Republicans, and do you know this is a 69% issue for Democrats? Do you know this is what everybody wants? The only people that don't want this is who? Even Democrats can't say, well, it's unfair, it's racist, that's BS. The majority of Democrat voters want this, the majority of Republican voters want this. Can you go to the end of

• 14:00Patrick Bet-David?

  that clip where the President talks about the Save America Act, please? If you can go to the end of it, go for it, go ahead and play this clip, go ahead.

  It could be chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more. Botox, onabotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS, Lou Gehrig's

• 16:18Speaker 02

  disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. Why wait? Ask your doctor. Visit botoxchronicmigraine.com or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.

• 17:08Patrick Bet-David?

  We got a cone?

• 17:10Speaker 03

  Got a cone.

• 17:11Patrick Bet-David?

  We got a cone. So do we, do we have it or do we not have it? Okay, Adam, I'll come to you. I'll come to you.

• 17:15Speaker 03

  Yeah, I'm just gonna keep it simple. Trump says that it's a national emergency and it supersedes everything else. It's very rare in America where we have legitimate consensus. You just said 90-plus percent of Republicans are in favor of voter ID. You also said almost 70-plus percent of Democrats. That includes black, white, yellow, Puerto Rican, Haitian, everybody in the United States nation. Yeah, every ethnicity, above 60. Exactly. Here's my question. Why don't they just put it up for a vote? We all know that the Democrats are gonna shut it down. What I would like to see, what I'd be interested in is what Republicans are actually gonna get up there and say nay to the SAVE Act. Because, correct me if I'm wrong, the SAVE Act is just simply one thing. Show voter ID when you turn out and vote. That's it. Proof you're sitting here. At the end of the day, proof you live here.

• 17:59Speaker 03

  So, I don't understand what's going on with John Thune. He seems like a capable guy. People in the Senate are lining up behind him. For me, the simple explanation is, put it up for a vote. Even if you don't have the votes, let's see which Republicans are voting no on the SAVE Act. That's what I wanna know.

• 18:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Benny?

• 18:16Speaker 02

  Wasn't it four, I think it was four, Mitch McConnell and three other people that voted against the...

• 18:20Speaker 03

  Alaska and Maine, Murkowski and...

• 18:22Speaker 02

  Yeah, and, and, and this'll be, and, and Tom did it so, so eloquently. I don't really need to add that much more, but just, this is the tactic, Pat. And we're gonna, by the way, multiple stories we're gonna find out today. And it's not like they're hiding it either, Pat. Like Gavin Newsom, that was on his podcast, he was talking about consolidating power, packing the courts. They are, no, they want no voter ID. I hope the people, even that, you said 69% of Democrats? It should be over 90%. You want a free and fair election. This is the party that constantly talks about fascism and this and no kings. If you don't want no ID for people to vote in the country. And then when we complain about all the crime and all the stuff that they're doing, all the money, all the fraud, all the raping, all the killing, then we're the bad guys. It drives me crazy.

• 19:06Patrick Bet-David?

  But I'm gonna tell you this, I'm gonna tell you this. This is the part, you know how sometimes we jump into this camp of, we all do it. It's like, it's, it's all Muslims. It's all Democrats. It's all Republicans. It's all Jews. It's all this. It's never all. You understand what I'm saying? It's not all. Trust me. There's plenty of Democrats that want to voter ID. They're Democrats because of pro-choice. Let's just say. That's their thing. They're Democrats because, you know, their parents were Democrats and John F. Kennedy Democrats, so their loyalties to their parents. But they're reasonable Democrats that create jobs, have businesses. There are plenty of reasonable Muslims in America that have jobs that contribute to society. We have a few of them here that work with us. We love them.

• 19:50Patrick Bet-David?

  One of our guys is one of our managers, one of our leaders over here. Love what he does. From Lebanon. Great work. Kareem, phenomenal work. We have, we have good things that happen here, right? But here, you're seeing, the reasonable Democrats are saying, "Why don't you want voter ID? Why not? Let's get it. Let's get it and see how it votes." This is the reality of it. The one thing that's not one of our main stories, we want to know if there's any, you know, manipulation that's going on. The moment they moved out USAID, USID, whatever, USAID AID from South America elections. Did you see what happened to it? Have you seen the charts? So check this out. The moment last year, we moved it out.

• 20:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Can you pull the tweet to show where we were at in June of 2023? Check this out, Vinny. The money's out. You can no longer buy candidates in South America to put in the liberals maybe that you support like Lula and some of these other guys. In June of 2023, I believe 10 of the leaders were Democrats. If you can go to the tweet, guys, that it shows the, the, kinda like how we did it last time with Bustamante, Sarah Adams. You had it to me yesterday, guys. Can you just go to it real quick so we can have that? So, June of 23, then June of 2026, the plus minus is plus four Republican candidates won, minus four Democratic candidates were out, the socialists.

• 21:17Patrick Bet-David?

  You need funding. You need manipulation for socialists to win. You need that. You need some kind of a help from somebody on the outset for that message to come out. So, what does it tell you? Maybe the average person is more reasonable. Maybe the average person is more understanding. Maybe the average person is...

• 21:37Patrick Bet-David?

  More conservative with their finances and the way they live. Maybe the average person is just not a socialist. Maybe the average person is like, yeah, I'm not, I'm not going with this. I, I want to go with a different thing. So, I don't know. It'll be interesting to see, uh, uh, you know, it'll be interesting to see what'll happen here next. Guys, I don't know if you can pull it up or not. This is my third time asking for it. Can you guys do that or not? Or let me know in the messaging on what's going on here? Because I want the audience to see it. Either let me know we're having issues or just tell me what's going on. Because I want to go to the other chart that shows. No, not the chart, guys. On the tweet yesterday that we showed the plus minus and which countries were taken over by a different leader. You showed it yesterday that we were with Bustamante and Sarah Adams. If you can look for that and show it to us, that'd be great. At this point, I'm going to the next story.

• 22:21Speaker 03

  It's numbers, numbers, not pictures, guys.

• 22:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, it's, it's, uh, you gotta see this. That's why I wanted to be able to show it to you to see what's going on there. So, we'll see, we'll see what happens. I like the fact that the president is still pushing for the voter ID.

• 22:33Speaker 03

  I love.

• 22:33Patrick Bet-David?

  I will tell you, if he gets that passed, it'll be a massive thing that they'll have, uh, that they're working on right there. Okay, beautiful. Anna Paulina Luna, look at this. Look at the plus minus, Vinnie. Left wing was 10 in June, June 2023. Now it's right wing was three. Now right wing is seven. Left wing is six. They dropped four plus minus. And I, on the list over here of the three, uh, the countries that happened to, if you can show that one as well from Unwokeness. Latin America since USA, uh, USAID defunding. Cast far right wins in Chile. Paz far right wins in Bolivia. Fujimori far right wins in Peru. Noboa wins in Ecuador. Again, right. Oscura wins in Honduras. Right. Fernandez wins in Costa Rica. Right.

• 23:18Patrick Bet-David?

  Why is this? Did they need the USAID number? Is that what they needed? Is that what was going on? Is that what's taking place? Again, this is why Democrats and Republicans want voter ID to see what the hell is going on. That's what we want. And let the best ideas win. By the way, New York City.

• 23:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Mumdani's three candidates win, right? And if you see Mumdani's three candidates that won and what things they've said. One of the candidates that won said, Vinny, what was the words on what she said?

• 23:49Speaker 03

  Is this Daralisa?

• 23:50Speaker 02

  Wipe my you-know-what with the American flag. This person hates America, period.

• 23:57Patrick Bet-David?

  So I forgot to get napkins, so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me. Folks, this is who won, okay? Just so you know, this is who won. The person that says, "I will wipe my hands with..." What is the story that I have two of? I'm trying to see which one I got here that's the real one. This is the person that said that, right? Okay, so they win. On The View yesterday, they're having a conversation about what this really means to the Democratic Party. Okay? What it really means to the Democratic Party? One of the ladies is trying to tell Joy Behar why this is such a bad thing and how it's gonna hurt the Democratic Party.

• 24:40Patrick Bet-David?

  And actually, I don't know if you guys saw this clip or not. She breaks it down very eloquently. Guys, I'm gonna send you this clip if you can show it. Joy Behar is watching this girl. I don't know what her name is. It's the conservative one on the show. It's the conservative one on the show that tries to give the argument from the other side, who is not a Trump fan herself. But she tries to give the logical argument on the conservative side. If you can play this clip, this is what Democrats are dealing with right now. She breaks it down in such a crystal clear way. I want to give her credit on this clip here. If you guys got it, you can pull up to it. Vinny, I want you to watch this here. I don't know if you've seen this or not. Go for it, go for it, guys. New Yorkers are not watching Fox constantly.

• 25:23Patrick Bet-David?

  And so they are, and they're not afraid of the term democratic socialism. If I fall down...

• 25:28Speaker 06

  I want an ambulance. If my house is on fire, bring your hose. You know what I mean?

• 25:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay.

• 25:34Speaker 06

  You just talked about these goods and services. You want the police to come. You want the fire department to come. Well, one of your new candidates, Avila Chevalier, who won last night, wants to abolish the police and all prisons. She was asked four times, how would you deal with somebody who committed murder then? What is your plan? And she dodged and didn't answer. She tweeted that Obama is evil, Biden is a rapist and a war criminal, and bleep Kamala Harris. These were not people running on an affordability agenda. These were left-wing extremists that were elected last night at the expense of moderate Democrats. So a seat that you guys do need to win if you want to take back the house. I don't like the way she sounds at all. Well, that's what I'm saying.

• 26:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, really? Way to wake up.

• 26:14Speaker 06

  That is the point. These candidates that were endorsed by DSA, the Democratic Socialist, were extreme candidates. And I've seen this happen in my party where the extreme right wing takes over and you can't get your party back. I would warn you all, this is very dangerous and it could risk you losing the house. Obviously, New Yorkers are not one.

• 26:31Patrick Bet-David?

  Very, very well said. Tom, your thoughts on this, what's going on in New York City?

• 26:34Speaker 03

  Well, let me, let me, okay. I have been diving into this and there is a plan that's below the surface. In the same way that USAID was being directed to certain candidates that were on a liberalism, socialism, you know, plank that was being pushed by Soros and others, and USAID was doing that. There is a deeper story there. Now we can see, as the people are able to vote, we see the truth. You see what I mean, Vinnie? You see the truth. This is what's going on here. When they say defund the police and when they say these things, the reason she's silent, you can see it in Dallas. They don't want no courts. They don't want no police.

• 27:18Speaker 03

  They want the Sharia courts and they want Islamic rule. That's what's coming, guys. What's going on, Pat, is they say, well, defund the police, and they are trying to get certain groups to vote on the premise of, oh, you being oppressed by the police. They come out and George Floyd and all this. They are trying to push that on. The masses to get them behind the defund the police. What's really coming here is not democratic socialism, but it's one layer deeper. It's Sharia courts. It's what they set up in Dallas. There's a community in Dallas, we all read about it. They said, "No, no, no, we will be self ruling." What do you mean self ruling? What if somebody robs? What if somebody rapes? What if somebody murders? "Oh, no, no, we'll have our own courts."

• 28:03Speaker 03

  That's what's coming. They want their own courts. It's happening in small pockets of Minneapolis where people in the neighborhood voluntarily solve everything through the Sharia courts with their mosque. That's what's coming, guys. That's what's behind this. And even the liberals on The View are now saying, "Well, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What about this, this, and this?" You have voted for the virus that's going to infect everybody. The Democrats that are followed on these candidates are useful idiots for the wave that's coming.

• 28:33Speaker 06

  Adam. I think Babylon Bee said it best, I don't know if we can pull that up, Connor, but they said "Al Qaeda wins New York primary." And that was the title of their headline.

• 28:44Speaker 03

  Exactly.

• 28:45Speaker 06

  And that's basically what's going on right now, is that if the KKK took over the right side of politics in this country, we would all be freaking out. In my opinion, the far left, they've replaced the progressives, they certainly replaced the liberals, the democratic socialist America, what's the difference between them and communists? Here you go, Al Qaeda wins New York primary. We should be way more at arms at what's going on here with this thing. And there's a lot of people saying, "Listen, I don't pay attention to politics, it's not my thing." Well, here's the thing you're gonna realize, politics is gonna pay attention to you. And at some point, they're gonna come for you. So in my opinion, this is the number one story in America.

• 29:29Speaker 06

  Save Act is a part of that. But it's the communist Islamist takeover of America. And who's gonna control America's future? And at the end of the day, it's MAGA versus DSA. Because, by the way, they polled Democrats and they said, "How do you feel about Democrats in Congress?" You know their approval rating? Plus four. They said, "How do you feel about Democrat Socialist of America?" DSA, plus 17. They're running circles.

• 29:54Speaker 02

  around the Democratic Establishment Party, the Nancy Pelosi's, the Chuck Schumer's, the Hakeem Jeffries, they're fossils, they're dinosaurs, and they're being taken over and hijacked by communists, and it's sad to see, and hopefully, we do something about it in this country.

• 30:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, it's, it's, is this, yeah, this is one of the candidates that won. Can you play this clip? I'm glad you guys found this one, go for it.

• 30:13Speaker 04

  And finding that, like, you know, the system of capitalism and racism, and white supremacy, etc., have all, and Islamophobia have all been used, you know, to colonize lands, right?

• 30:27Patrick Bet-David?

  You've seen in London, it's happening here.

• 30:29Speaker 04

  And so this is like a long trajectory.

• 30:31Patrick Bet-David?

  In New York City.

• 30:32Speaker 04

  And we're seeing the manifestations of that continuation.

• 30:34Patrick Bet-David?

  This is where?

• 30:35Speaker 04

  Right, with 9/11.

• 30:36Speaker 02

  This is New York.

• 30:37Speaker 04

  And so, a lot of times when people are asking us to respond about, you know, attack, right, when, if you look back, like, historically, right, you know, a lot of us come from lands that were colonized, lands where wars have been waged, right? A lot of times because of US policy or the policies in Europe, and so, I find that we can connect over that, but then also that, the idea that we have to apologize for, like, a terror attack that, like, a couple of people did, and then there is no apologies or reparations for genocide and for slavery, etc.

• 31:09Patrick Bet-David?

  You can pause it right there. She won. And by the way, Hunter Biden, I don't know if you guys are watching Hunter Biden or not, he's a social media sensation right now on Twitter, okay? If there's somebody you wanted to party with when you were younger, Hunter Biden was probably the guy you wanted to party with. A lot different, different party you would go to than JD Vance, if you, if that's how you define success, right? But Hunter Biden has been saying some stuff, and he's sharing some thoughts with Democrats. Hunter Biden wants Democrats to learn extreme lessons from New York City elections. He's, I'm not running for office, but if I were, there are some of the lessons I take away from what happened in New York yesterday. Authenticity is measurable, voters can smell a focus group. From a mile away, endorsements from the current Democratic leadership now read like warnings.

• 31:54Patrick Bet-David?

  The establishment wing of the party is no longer a sword. It's a question mark. Conviction beats caution. The candidates who said hard things about rent, about who pays for what, about Gaza, they won. The triangulators, lost. Cost of living is everything. Everything else is wallpaper. Five. The middle is not a strategy, it's an empty room. Voters reached past the establishment to grab someone who actually believes something. Yeah, communism. Six. Don't fear the base. Court it. The Democrats who ran from their voters, lost. The ones who ran toward them, won. Seven. If you want to lead a party, you have to be willing to fight inside it. Mumdani didn't ask permission. He took the field. The lesson under the lesson. The country is tired of being managed. The people want to be led.

• 32:39Patrick Bet-David?

  Now, agree or disagree? He's talking campaign. Politico comes out with an article on this side, saying Democratic socialists are coming for 2028. DSA National Co-Chair Megan Romer says what DSA represents is a real contrast to Democrats, who have run the last couple of elections on fear. You can't run on that. You have to offer an alternative. And it's really important that we be involved, that we be involved. I want to make sure I say the proper English that she used. In that conversation in 2028, it's important that we have somebody saying sensible things. New York victory fuels momentum, the planning follows, a major political victory in New York.

• 33:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Mumdani's endorsed candidates, Claire Valdez, Brad Lander, and Dariliza Avila Chevalier, all won competitive Democratic primaries. Mumdani declared before the election, they ask, who do you want to run in 2028? Then they ask, when does the race for 2028 begin? It starts now. It starts on Tuesday. AOC remains the big question. Representative AOC remains the most prominent potential presidential candidate within the movement. However, Romer says, she would have no automatic endorsement, she will have to sell her campaign and why DSA should throw down behind it. We don't do kingmakers. If it reveals that every chapter is like, we want AOC, we want AOC. There you go. That's where they're at.

• 34:05Speaker 03

  I mean, if you love America and you love the flag and you're a patriot, this should scare the hell out of you. Because not only is it here, it's coming for you. And it's coming to all the cities around you. By the way, have you seen what the DSA platform is? So it's a lot of rhetoric, a lot of words. Have you actually seen what the platform is? Connor, I texted it to you. Let me just give you the platform. It's entitled "Workers Deserve More," and I'll boil it down to five points. Number one, they want to basically change the Constitution and change the balance of power from our checks and balances system to a parliamentary system. Okay, so the number one, they want to change the Constitution. That should shock and alarm you. Number two, of course, like all good communists do, they want to seize the means of production. This is essentially their platform right here. I'll just summarize it for you. Of course, they want to basically expand the role of government

• 34:50Speaker 03

  and seize the means of production. Number three, of course, open borders. Open borders, reduce immigration enforcement, abolish ICE. We've seen this. Number four, they basically said no prisons, even for violent criminals, zero prisons, abolish the police, defund the police. We've seen that. And the crue de gras, we all know this, mandatory to be a part of the DSA, you must hate Israel and you must very much dislike the Jews. And even more so, you must adapt a pro-Palestine, Gaza-first ideology. That is the DSA in a nutshell. So if that's you, vote for these people. My assumption is Americans are smarter than that and they will basically root this from its stem.

• 35:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Alright, so we'll see. We'll see what happens, but guess what? I kept telling you guys, I've been saying this for two years. And everybody X me and messages me, "You're out of your mind." There will be a socialist candidate for 2028. And they have a shot. They really have a shot. If they continue, keep talking about affordability and the other side doesn't talk about affordability and they beat around the bush on how great the market is doing, but not affordability, they're gonna have a very real shot, especially if prices increase and you feel what happens in their personal lives. So we'll see. We'll see what happens there. Let's go to the next story. The next story I want to get into is the story of this pastor. Very interesting story, very brief. We'll go into it and I'll get into the next story.

• 36:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Here's a pastor, okay, I think it's page 19 if I'm not mistaken. Here's a pastor, okay. This is, Vinny, you want to tell us what's going on over here?

• 36:24Speaker 02

  Pastor Tony Spell, uh, he, uh, so pastor, it says, a man threatened, this guy that's coming, the kid in the shorts and the phone in his hand, threatened to rape the pastor's wife, rape his grandchildren, and kill his family the next time he left town. And according to the pastor, the man then looked at him and said, what are you going to do about it? So Spell physically confronts him, and he was arrested for second degree battery charge. So this is the, this is the video.

• 36:50Patrick Bet-David?

  So the pastor's pulling up to him?

• 36:51Speaker 02

  Yup, yup, look, look, look, talking, I want to rape, I want to do this. Talking all that, and that takes off, and so he wants to, he swings first, okay?

• 37:01Speaker 03

  So which one's the pastor?

• 37:02Speaker 02

  Pastor's in the button-down shirt?

• 37:04Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 37:04Speaker 02

  Then what, Adam, UFC?

• 37:05Speaker 03

  Oh, wow. It's Nolan Ryan and Robin Ventura.

• 37:09Speaker 02

  Exactly. Yeah. Yup, that's what, like, you want the smoke, and you got the smoke.

• 37:17Speaker 03

  Wow, he's out.

• 37:18Speaker 02

  Yup, yeah, there you go.

• 37:20Speaker 03

  Was that a phone?

• 37:20Speaker 02

  Yeah, that was his phone. Like, you want it, you got, dude.

• 37:24Speaker 03

  And Vinny summarized what's going on, why are they fighting about this?

• 37:26Speaker 02

  So, so, okay.

• 37:26Patrick Bet-David?

  He just did, so the guy there, look, look.

• 37:29Speaker 03

  Oh my God, what's he about to do here?

• 37:30Patrick Bet-David?

  The guy there said, I'm gonna rape your wife and rape your grandkids.

• 37:34Speaker 02

  And, and what are you gonna do about it? And then Pat, ready for this? The church says this wasn't random. They, they claimed the pastor Spell and his congregation have been targeted for the past six years by the family across the street.

• 37:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Ooh!

• 37:45Speaker 02

  This guy lives, Pat, this guy lives across from the church. And after getting out of jail, you wanted the best part, Pat? I, I don't know if they have that video. He preached that he had fulfilled prophecy, and he said that he laid his hands on the sick.

• 38:01Speaker 02

  That is insane.

• 38:03Speaker 03

  The guy is pretty sick.

• 38:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Is there the interview? Do we have the interview? Is this him?

• 38:07Speaker 02

  There's an actual interview.

• 38:08Patrick Bet-David?

  I had a dude, a Louisiana pastor says he beat neighbor for threatening to rape his wife and his children, grandchildren. And the Louisiana pastor was a 46-years-old, Spell, related video. He said, Tony, I'm going to rape your wife, I'm gonna rape all your grandchildren. Next time you see you got a town, I'm, I'm going to kill them.

• 38:22Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 38:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Spell said, said he believed. He had a responsibility act. I have a duty and obligation to do what I did. The pastor told reporters he could not allow someone to threaten his family and said he was acting as a husband and a father and a pastor. The neighboring family Sherwin's disputed Spell's account and told they do not believe their son made the threats described by the pastor. Video footage obtained shows Spell crossing Cooper Road and confronting the young man before the fight broke out. Louisiana pastor beat up a man allegedly threatened to, okay, and according to arrest, that's pretty wild when you hear a story like this.

• 38:56Speaker 02

  Yes, and there's a

• 38:57Patrick Bet-David?

  In my name, show, they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. So today I fulfill the scripture, I lay the hands on the sick.

• 39:06Speaker 02

  Good for you.

• 39:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Didn't somebody else as a neighbor say that these guys were doing that?

• 39:10Speaker 02

  Yeah, so Pat, there was, there was a, it's on YouTube, there's a, a lady of the congregation, a black lady sitting in her car with her child, saying that they've been hurling racial slurs and anybody that goes to this church, Pat, and here's the thing. People think because this is a pastor, you're supposed to just, you know, stand there and take it. That's not Christianity, okay? You're, you're still a husband, you're a father, you're a grandfather. Protecting your family isn't a sin. In the Bible, yes, because I know people are going to say something in the chat about forgiveness and turning the other cheek when you're personally wrong, but it does not teach you to stand by while someone threatens your family. Jesus said in Luke 22, 36, "If you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one." Evil is real, Pat, and protecting the innocent people is part of your responsibility.

• 39:54Speaker 02

  And one Timothy 5:8 also makes it clear that a man has a duty to care for his household, okay? You don't go looking for a fight, but when someone brings it and threatens your life and your grandchildren to rape you and murder your whole family, guess what? You don't roll over, you stand up and you protect your family. And he's also, after he got out of jail, two hours later, he was standing in front of the thing and saying, what am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do? You're for six years, Adam, they're, they're across the street. This is a neighbor from the congregation saying, we're going to kill and rape and what are you going to do? Sit there and be like, okay, yeah, keep saying it.

• 40:23Speaker 03

  It sounds like a case of F A F O than of

• 40:25Speaker 02

  And that's what happened.

• 40:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Tom, how do you process this? You're good with this?

• 40:28Speaker 03

  I'll tell you how I process this. In 1976, we celebrated the 200 anniversary of America. In 1976, what do you think that the neighbors and everyone would have said about this? What do you think the cop would have said if he called the police? The cop would have said, "You told him you were gonna kill his family, you're gonna rape him, and he walked across the street and he whooped your ass?

• 40:47Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 40:48Speaker 03

  Son, why are you saying these things?" The cop wouldn't be right. Now we go, "Oh, what happened to this poor boy? Oh, it's freedom of speech." That's not freedom of speech. That's horrifying. We have fallen far as a country. And the real tragedy is that somebody that said to the police, "I don't think our boy said that." Wait a minute, who raised that boy? You don't get to say he doesn't do it. You'll have your day. You can say whatever you want, and you can give him an alibi, because that's not an alibi. My boy wouldn't do that. Really? We got film that says he did. Where were you?

• 41:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Every once in a while, I love to hear stories like this, for the market to know. If you screw around with the wrong person, things like this could happen to you. I actually love stories like this every once in a while. Wherever the pastor is, hey, kudos to you. Any kid or a wife would love to have a father like you and a husband like you that protects its own. I respect the hell out of it. You didn't need cops to do it, you protected your own. All right, let's get to the next story. We have a special guest here with us. Before I introduce her to you, let me first share with you stories that came out about Venezuela. What was happening over there with the earthquake? 7.4 earthquake, and a 7.6 earthquake that hit yesterday. Powerful earthquakes near Caracas.

• 42:06Patrick Bet-David?

  This report here says at least 164 have died as rescue efforts underway. But the reports I'm getting from people on the streets is there's 55, nearly 60,000 people missing, and no one really knows what's going on. So, when you look at the story here, twin earthquakes, back-to-back, rocked Venezuela last night, killing nearly 200 and injuring at least 15, 20. Venezuela National Assembly President George Rodriguez said this afternoon, "Those tolls are set to rise again the." extensive damage across South American countries. Eight pledges with frantic rescue efforts underway pledges of aid poured in from around the world.

• 42:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Marco Rubio even commented on this. The US said it was immediately deploying search and rescue teams, medical resources and humanitarian assistance. That's Marco Rubio. US response will be big, it'll be fast, it'll be effective. And state of emergency acting president delcia Rodriguez declared a state of emergency announced. Here's a couple of videos for you to watch. This is the airport. This is what it looked like at the airport. I've been through an earthquake before, the big one in Northridge. Let me tell you. It is extremely scary when you're going through it.

• 43:20Speaker 02

  This is the airport? Gee, that shot, wow. You think it's the end of the world. You literally think it's the end of the world.

• 43:28Speaker 03

  And the dust you see, that's the concrete rubbing against each other in the, in the, the roof and the pillars. That's what's going on there.

• 43:36Speaker 02

  Jeez.

• 43:38Speaker 02

  Oh my goodness.

• 43:42Speaker 02

  Forty-five seconds.

• 43:43Patrick Bet-David?

  This is one. Do you have another one? Do you have a couple of other ones with properties shaking? This is just the airport. And by the way, the airport's at least built on a decent structure where you don't see it coming down. There's some like, watch this one here.

  Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS, Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

  That's exactly what happened in the Northridge apartment. Well, this is the dudes right next to Cal State Northridge. Is the garage underneath collapsed?

• 47:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Never dropped.

• 47:02Speaker 02

  That never drops a cigarette though. Like shout out to whatever brand that is cigarette.

• 47:08Patrick Bet-David?

  Look at this.

• 47:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay. All right. So let's pause there. Devastating going through this. Our guest today is Anna Padilla, doctor there herself. Anna, can you hear us? Hi, yes, yes.

• 47:25Speaker 04

  Thank you so much for having me today.

• 47:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Thanks for joining us and and we appreciated that, you know, Tim Ryan made this happen and made the introduction. So we're out here, all we see is clips, all we read is stories, we're not there. What can you tell us of what's going on right now in Venezuela?

• 47:41Speaker 04

  Well, right now, first of all, I just want to let everyone know that, you know, Venezuela is heartbroken at the moment. The devastation and the loss is incomprehensible, first of all, and it's a big tragedy. We've got people trapped under buildings, the rescue teams have not even reached them yet. I mean, it's deeply personal and I know everyone is seeing in the news, but they're not feeling how we how we feel. And it's not just numbers on the screen for us. We've had dear friends, personal friends from university that were trapped under their buildings waiting for rescue. And they were holding on for their lives until they just couldn't anymore, I'm sorry. And, um, you know, it's deeply personal for us.

• 48:24Speaker 04

  Uh, the the truth is, we were not prepared for this. The the country is not prepared for this type of stuff. So that's why I'm deeply grateful to be here today, you know, to spread awareness and to let everyone know and to let our American brothers know that we do need help. It's a fact, we need help. People are being crushed by buildings, they're waiting for everyone to come in and help. And we need a lot of supplies. I'm here at the donation center at the moment, I don't know if you can see around me.

• 48:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Yep, we see it.

• 48:54Speaker 04

  We're we're gathering clothes, we're gathering surgical materials, we're gathering medicine. And, you know, people have lost everything. People are losing everything at the moment, they're living in the streets, they're out in the cold. They have not eaten for 24 hours. And, you know, it's a big devastation. I know it's it's not what you see maybe in the news, but here inside, people are suffering. And I just want to let everyone know out there that if you can extend your hand to help us out, it is deeply appreciated. We've got a bunch of friends, a bunch of my friends are also setting up GoFundMes. There's foundations that are trying to help and.

• 49:36Speaker 04

  I know all of the countries are helping, but the crucial thing is it needs to be faster. You know, I had a couple of friends going down to La Guaira, which was the most affected, the state most affected. And they said they could hear people scream under the buildings, but there were no protection or rescue teams there yet. So it's mostly civilians trying to do whatever they can to take out the pieces of the building and bring people out. And, you know, we need all the resources we can. Our resources inside are running out. You know, I work here with the hospitals and a bunch of my friends are also in hospitals. They're saying their resources are running out.

• 50:17Speaker 04

  They're asking for donations and I know it's not what we can see out there in the news, but this is the reality.

• 50:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Anna, let me ask you, what did it feel like? Walk us through what happened, you know, when it happened, both of them. What did it feel like? How long did it last? How wide is the impact in the states?

• 50:34Speaker 04

  Well, where I lived, it wasn't as intense as it was for other people. I was at my house. And it felt like the longest seven or 10 seconds of my life. The building was shaking intensely. The lights were giving off. My mom was also at the supermarket. Lights were giving off. Everything was shaking. And after everything happened, where you get to calm down, you start seeing videos. Videos of buildings going down, building, videos of people, you know, under the buildings and nobody expected this. Our last earthquake was probably more than 50 years ago.

• 51:14Speaker 04

  And, and as you may know, and it is not a secret, here we were not prepared for this. And as soon as it came, everybody was in shock. And then the devastation and the loss came after. Buildings were going down and you started searching for your loved ones. That was the worst part. Searching for your coworkers, for your friends, for your family, trying to reach them. And it was, we were all desperate to hear of our loved ones. They were okay and our friends.

• 51:46Speaker 06

  So it was the longest, seven seconds, seven to ten seconds, that's how long it lasted. And that is how long it took for everything to crumble down, for people to start losing their lives, especially in La Guaira. I want to bring awareness to La Guaira because it was a state where almost, I think even more than what has been said, around, you know, a hundred buildings came down. I have friends there, I have friends that thankfully were rescued under their building yesterday, and they're currently at the hospitals, but some of them lost their lives. And they were very young, mostly it's young people losing their lives that were in those buildings. I had a friend yesterday that sadly passed away.

• 52:28Speaker 06

  We were trying to get him to, we were trying to get him a rescue team, but it was not possible because everything is moving slow. And that's why I want to let everyone know, everything here moves slow. The rescue teams are slow, the capacities are surpassed. And that's why we need all the help we can get inside Venezuela, because it's been very difficult for us and we're trying to manage as quickly as we can. It's mostly civilians out there trying to make a difference.

• 52:59Patrick Bet-David?

  And by the way, what I'm hearing, I'm so sorry that you guys are going through it. It's tragic to hear stories like this. The latest update, I just read a story that was 188. The latest update from a few minutes ago right now is death toll officially hits 589. It's what the death toll is, 2980 injured and 55, 60,000 people missing. Does that sound about right to you? Are people, every minute they're hearing new stories of tragedy, of losing friends and family?

• 53:26Speaker 06

  Yes, well, that is definitely not what you hear out here, Pad. Especially because it is as simple as they have not reached the most affected areas. It is not possible to be known how many people have passed because they haven't even gotten to. to them yet and that's what I'm saying they haven't got into any places that were the most affected there's still there's still people and this is stories from people that have gone to the places most affected civilians they hear people screaming under the buildings and I mean it's been around almost seventy two hours nobody can last inside

• 54:05Speaker 06

  a building like that under rumble that's very heavy and to me it seems that you know if it is confirmed in the international news the number is most likely to increase about a thousand people because it is is the devastation here and the loss is incredibly big

• 54:24Patrick Bet-David?

  well uh uh Anna thank you so much for joining us here to give us an update and you know we anytime things like this happen typically helps communities get closer together and especially when you're relying on others to just help out and I see that happening with you and we're gonna do our part as well do any one of you guys have Adam you have a question

• 54:41Speaker 03

  yeah this is a good question Anna a major respect to you we're here in South Florida I'm from Miami I think Miami has the largest concentration of Venezuelans outside of Latin America so I know that the people of Miami are gonna be helping and sending as much aid as we can here's my question we just had a discussion not to make this political whatsoever I want to understand the infrastructure because we just had a conversation here about the DSA and they're taking over America what what has the socialist agenda done in Venezuela to basically not pay attention to the economy which leads to poor infrastructure which leads to poorly maintained buildings which when something like this happens the roads the electric grids the waters all basically succumb to the issues so what what could you say about basically

• 55:27Speaker 03

  what socialism has done to your country

• 55:30Speaker 06

  well in that regards what I can mostly say is that you know all of this damage that this has done is basically been reflected in the maintenance of everything and maintenance of buildings of this basic services water electricity that has all been affected we actually I don't I can't say anything specific about why this has happened you know because political implications and everything but I can assure you that inside Venezuela there is a lack of Attention in the well-being of the population.

• 56:03Speaker 02

  So Anna, this is, Anna Vincent, sorry to cut you off. My thoughts and prayers go out to you, your family, everybody that's affected. What, what, what, Anna, right now, as an American, what, what is the best way for someone to be able to help?

• 56:15Patrick Bet-David?

  We're gonna do it, we're gonna do it right now. I'm gonna announce something right now. While we're doing this, I've been working on something, so we'll keep you posted. Anna, stay close to us, because I'm about to announce something here that the audience needs to hear. We have this shirt that we just produced right now that says, "Pray for Venezuela," black and white. And on the back, it says, "Future looks bright." You always need to be optimistic about the future. A hundred percent of anything we sell on merch today, on our website, we will be sending it to families that were directly impacted by this financially. Anna, please stay close to us. We will be following up with you within, later on today, if not tomorrow, to make sure we get this money directly to families. And depending on what different GoFundMes are, or different things that we have in place, we want to support these families. It's devastating that something like this is going on.

• 57:00Patrick Bet-David?

  And I want to thank Tim Ryan that monacted us. He's a, one of the biggest monactors out there. And this is one of the ways that we're able to contribute and help other people out. Anna, thank you so much for your time. We appreciate you, our prayers are with you.

• 57:13Speaker 06

  Thank you so much for this visibility. Thank you so much.

• 57:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Thank you, take care, bye-bye. Folks, every once in a while, when stuff like this happens, you know, we're not directly impacted, but if it's on your heart to want to help out these families. Last time when the fires happened in LA, Vinnie, you were with me when we raised, I don't know what it was, we raised a hundred thousand dollars.

• 57:33Speaker 02

  Over a hundred thousand.

• 57:34Patrick Bet-David?

  Over a hundred thousand dollars. We called twenty-plus families, one by one by one, and we sent each of them five thousand dollars. And none of them would believe it when we would make these calls. None of them, they're like, "Uh, this is, this is, uh, this is not real." I said, "Hey, can you call Johnny? He told us about you." They called Johnny, "No, this is real." "Wait, they're gonna send me five thousand?" And they were all crying, emotional. So if you have family, you, if you have family yourself that's going through it, depending on how much money we raise here, we're gonna spend a hundred percent of it, and we're gonna send it to the families in Venezuela. If you go to VTmerch.com, if you want to support that shirt, "Pray for Venezuela," this is not gonna go away. Anytime soon, whether you want to buy a white or a black one yourself.

• 58:14Patrick Bet-David?

  And at the same time, anything else that we sell today on VTmerch.com, 100% of all sales today on VTmerch.com will go to Venezuela. 100% of whatever we sell on VTmerch.com, not the profits, the gross. So if you buy something $100, the profit is whatever. It's not the profit that's going to go. It's the $100 that's going to go to families in Venezuela. Collectively, this is our opportunity to positively impact some of these families in Venezuela. Can you press the clip of that one video of that building that just went down? The big building? I want you to see this, folks, because we didn't really see all of it. Watch this. Go to the... Not this one. You just... It was just in... Well, play this one if you want. This is what it looks like right now.

• 58:58Speaker 02

  And listen, Pat, you're going to hear people.

• 59:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Someone stuck in the box.

• 59:08Speaker 02

  Oh my...

• 59:09Speaker 03

  ¿Cómo te llamas, hermano?

• 59:11Speaker 02

  What's your name, my friend?

• 59:12Speaker 06

  Anthony. El otro...

• 59:14Patrick Bet-David?

  How are you supposed to...

• 59:16Speaker 06

  Y el otro...

• 59:17Speaker 02

  The other guy?

• 59:18Speaker 06

  Ari!

• 59:18Speaker 02

  Ari.

• 59:19Speaker 06

  Sí.

• 59:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Ari, bueno, ¿cómo estás? Oh my God, my heart...

• 59:23Speaker 06

  Ahí está una señora.

• 59:24Speaker 02

  Zee, watch, watch more.

• 59:26Speaker 06

  Sí, mano.

• 59:27Speaker 02

  You're all in there.

• 59:29Speaker 06

  Señora, hable para que la escuchen. Señora! Señora, hable! Señora!

• 59:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Wow, man.

• 59:41Speaker 02

  Not shy. He heard her earlier, and God knows if she's still... Connor, I sent you one of an entire apartment comp, like a high-rise, you know, 20, 30 stories, literally just collapsing. I sent it. I texted and I slacked it.

• 59:57Patrick Bet-David?

  It's in the texts. I mean, this is... It's in the group text. It's devastating when you see it. Yeah, watch this one here.

• 1:00:02Speaker 02

  Look at that. Look at that, bro. Oh my God.

• 1:00:07Speaker 03

  Oh my God.

• 1:00:09Patrick Bet-David?

  It's not AI.

• 1:00:10Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:00:11Patrick Bet-David?

  Check out comments.

• 1:00:13Speaker 02

  Bro.

• 1:00:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, listen, devastating to say the least. Some of my favorite people I worked in our insurance company, they were Venezuelans. They remember when we would go have dinner together and the stories, a lot of great stories. Some of the best people come out of Venezuela, man. I can't even describe it to you. Now, when I went to the game, Venezuela, Honduras, I don't know who was Dominican against Venezuela. The culture, the people, how loud, how much fun, how much they love their country. So if you want to support, again, any purchases that we make next 24 hours on VTeamRich.com, will go to families. And if you're somebody that families impacted by it, get ahold of us. Get ahold of, get ahold of one of us on the net, message us. Let us know about the story. We'd love to find a way to support these guys directly.

• 1:00:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, with that being said, let's go to the next story. Next one I want to get to is, we can go to, let's go to this one. Yeah, let's go to the story here. This next one I want to go to is story of SNAP. Yesterday, in a hearing, the folks that are running SNAP are being interviewed by this fellow. What is his name, by the way?

• 1:01:22Speaker 02

  Oh, that's Brandon Gill, his buddy.

• 1:01:24Patrick Bet-David?

  First of all, he's phenomenal at what he does. I just want you to watch this. SNAP, again, Tom, SNAP stands for...

• 1:01:31Speaker 02

  Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

• 1:01:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, so...

• 1:01:35Speaker 02

  Not SNAP yet.

• 1:01:36Patrick Bet-David?

  Right.

• 1:01:37Speaker 02

  Food stamps on an EBT card.

• 1:01:39Patrick Bet-David?

  That's right. And he's being, he's asking one of the leaders on what it is. And look at the response. Go for it.

• 1:01:47Speaker 06

  Stand for?

• 1:01:48Patrick Bet-David?

  What does SNAP stand for?

• 1:01:48Speaker 06

  It's a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. What's nutritional about Coca-Cola?

• 1:01:55Patrick Bet-David?

  Look at her face.

• 1:01:57Speaker 06

  I am not a nutritionist. I am a food security expert in ensuring that individuals have the food resources that they need. I'm, this is a common sense question. All of these have been common sense questions. I'm just asking you, is there nutritional value to sugary sodas?

• 1:02:15Speaker 06

  It's a yes or no question.

• 1:02:19Speaker 06

  I am not an expert. I would have to look at the dietary. You're not an expert.

• 1:02:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Can you imagine giving an answer like that?

• 1:02:23Speaker 06

  What does SNAP stand for?

• 1:02:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, now watch this other clip, because he continues. He's got five minutes. He's not done with her. Watch this next one here. This next one is difficult to listen to, but you'll enjoy it.

• 1:02:34Speaker 06

  ...funded by organizations that make money from food stamps?

• 1:04:45Speaker 02

  Botox, onabotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS, Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

• 1:05:30Speaker 06

• 1:05:42Adam Sosnick?

  Her brains. Do organizations who profit off of food stamps fund your organization? Businesses? I mean, in the, I can't comment to that. Happy to talk about the research that needs. Does General Mills fund? Your organization.

• 1:06:01Speaker 06

  I don't have access to that information.

• 1:06:03Adam Sosnick?

  It's right here. They do fund your organization. Do they profit off of food stamps?

• 1:06:09Speaker 06

  Retailers are the major beneficiaries.

• 1:06:12Adam Sosnick?

  You think that that's a conflict of interest?

• 1:06:14Speaker 06

  That's where EBT dollars are utilized.

• 1:06:17Adam Sosnick?

  Yes, and they're profiting off of your advocacy. Do you think that that's a conflict of interest?

• 1:06:24Speaker 02

  He's so good.

• 1:06:28Adam Sosnick?

  Tom, I think most people think that's a conflict of interest. I know you don't want to answer. Is your organization?

• 1:06:33Patrick Bet-David?

  What do you think about that, Tom? What do you think about that? These are fair questions he's asking. Is there anything wrong with them promoting certain companies that are funding your program? Is there a conflict of interest there in your opinion?

• 1:06:47Speaker 02

  In my opinion, I believe there is a conflict. And I'll tell you where it is. SNAP was created to help fill the gap for children and people who maybe have a job, but literally are living below poverty line of income. And SNAP was supposed to help them.

• 1:07:07Adam Sosnick?

  Like hedge?

• 1:07:07Speaker 02

  Bridge.

• 1:07:08Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, bridge.

• 1:07:09Speaker 02

  Okay, and fill the gap. And the natural thing is, whenever the government says, "I need an airplane", five companies put out the bids. They want to build the airplane. If the government says, "I have a food program to get food to people", 50 companies want to go get food to people. Now, General Mills may make some, you know, things that would be on RFK's updated food pyramid that would qualify as nutritional foods. But there's also other things in there. Everybody wants to be on the list, Pat. If you're selling soda, you're selling granola bars that are just loaded with sugar, you want to be eligible for people to buy that. And then, they hide behind the following, Pat.

• 1:07:55Speaker 02

  It's the consumer's choice. No, it's not. If I'm giving SNAP, I want kids to get fruit. I want them to get things that I want to take sugar off there. I want them to get milk. I want them to get, you know, wholesome cheese. I want to get things that are, I want to get breads. I want to get, and you could argue about the sugar in breads and everything, but point is, I want to go to the food triangle and see, can we get fruits and vegetables and things?

• 1:08:19Speaker 03

  That's what the purpose of SNAP is. And if you're, I think there is a conflict. And that's why she was sitting there, Pat. There is, and that's why she can't answer the question. Because the lobbyists that are supporting her. You know what we just saw here, Pat? I just had an epiphany. We just saw hospices in LA. And we saw the cycle of government money intended for good gets used this way. Now, that's pure theft and fraud. But this is, she's got an advocacy group that's putting a SNAP program out. That's putting junk food out there. And we wonder why kids are overweight. We wonder why there's childhood diabetes. And she can't answer the question because those are her supporters.

• 1:08:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Adam.

• 1:09:00Speaker 03

  Look, have you ever been on SNAP, Government Assistance, or Food Stamps? Have you been on it?

• 1:09:05Patrick Bet-David?

  Yes.

• 1:09:06Speaker 03

  Why were you on it?

• 1:09:07Patrick Bet-David?

  What do you mean, why was I on it? We were on welfare when I first came to the States.

• 1:09:10Speaker 03

  Got you, your family was on it.

• 1:09:11Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, of course. When I was a kid, I was a food stamp kid.

• 1:09:14Speaker 03

  Really?

• 1:09:14Patrick Bet-David?

  Yes.

• 1:09:15Speaker 03

  So you understand the importance of it, right? I mean, I.

• 1:09:17Speaker 02

  Of course, we're not taking advantage of it.

• 1:09:18Speaker 03

  No, exactly, that's my point. Is I remember being on, my first job out of college, I worked there for a year and a half. And they let people go and I basically collected unemployment and food stamps. And let me just.

• 1:09:30Patrick Bet-David?

  You had food stamps as an adult?

• 1:09:32Speaker 03

  I had food stamps at 22 years old.

• 1:09:34Patrick Bet-David?

  Are you joking?

• 1:09:35Speaker 03

  No, I'm not joking.

• 1:09:36Patrick Bet-David?

  I had food stamps at 12 years old. What are you doing at 22 years old?

• 1:09:39Speaker 03

  This is my point.

• 1:09:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, go ahead, let's hear it.

• 1:09:40Speaker 03

  Is that when you, when you're laid off, you know, you collect unemployment.

• 1:09:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Yep.

• 1:09:44Speaker 03

  But keep in mind, it's been 20 something years since I've even considered this. But let me walk you through the mindset of what happens. When the government gives you something, you're like, oh, wow. I get paid to do nothing for basically six months. Amazing. Oh, let me, I get food stamps? Oh, good, let me, let me get this. Cool. And then all of a sudden, you, you have this like, sort of like angel and devil on your shoulder. It's like, should I go out and get a real job and actually get my life together? Or should I just basically suck off the teeth of the government for as long as possible? And here's what happens. The average person goes, I'll just take the free stuff. I'll take this as long as I can. Then the, the average person in America, I think, is that are on SNAP for eight to 12 months. You know how many percentage of Americans use SNAP? One in eight Americans, 42 million Americans use SNAP.

• 1:10:27Speaker 03

  Okay, that's 12% of the population. Here's my point. It's so, it feels so good, it feels something like, alright, let me do this. Because it's just, it's free money, it's free food, and I understand that people need it. But the more that you give people, the more that you give welfare, the more that you give welfare checks, you know, like the welfare queen situation, they become dependent on it, and that's the problem in America. If you need it, if you use it for a little while, I get it. But we have to stop, we have to eliminate how long people are on it. Some people become reliant on it, and they become reliant on the government, that's a problem.

• 1:11:00Patrick Bet-David?

  This is two different conversations, though. You took a very different angle. I think what was the main angle with this is, why are we allowing the money that taxpayers are paying to buy the products of the organizations that are funding you? That doesn't make any sense on what's happening over here. And by the way, do you know when they look at the life expectancy of Americans versus other countries, you know where we rank? We're not looking good against others. You know, Hong Kong, they live 85.8 years. Japan is 84.9, Switzerland's 84.4, Australia's 84.1, and a bunch of different countries are ahead of us. You know where we are?

• 1:11:38Patrick Bet-David?

  78.4 on some charts, some 79. Italy's 84, Spain's 84, Canada's 83, UK's 82, Germany's 81. You know, a bunch of these countries, Monaco's highest at 89 years old, by the way. Small, little place.

• 1:11:54Speaker 03

  Didn't we just go down a year or something?

• 1:11:56Patrick Bet-David?

  We did, we did go down a year. But why are we going down? People are like, because your health insurance sucks. Nope, it's not the health insurance that sucks, the food we're feeding our kids sucks. We're feeding our kids a bunch of sugar from early on, and we're getting them addicted to sugar. Sugar is just as addictive as any of these major drugs, and for the rest of your life, you're fighting what? What does sugar lead to?

• 1:12:18Speaker 03

  Diabetes.

• 1:12:19Patrick Bet-David?

  So what do you mean, you know, you can't give a basic answer that Coke is nutritionally, you know, good for you or bad for you? You know, it's funny, like, July of 2019 is the last time I drank soda. No Coke, I used to drink three Coke zeros a day. Boom, one day Ian Benedict and I having a conversation, gone. I just, this summer, we were at Hampton's, we're playing. Tikron and I have a conversation. Tikron leaves. Tikron's lost forty-five pounds. Tikron looks like a model from Europe.

• 1:12:48Speaker 03

  He looks like a European model.

• 1:12:50Patrick Bet-David?

  You won't even recognize him.

• 1:12:51Speaker 02

  Armenian Flavio.

• 1:12:51Patrick Bet-David?

  He looks ridiculous.

• 1:12:53Speaker 03

  I'm gonna transition.

• 1:12:54Patrick Bet-David?

  He eliminated a lot of his, you know, sugar out of his, he doesn't even drink Arnold Palmer, which to me it's a sin. He doesn't drink Arnold Palmer.

• 1:13:00Speaker 02

  That's horrible. I'm gonna talk to him about that.

• 1:13:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, that's it, that's it. But he's like no pad, nothing. And you should see what he eats. You should see how intentional he is. He's got the scale with the body fat percentage. But also it starts with kids. We think it's funny, my kid likes candy. I don't think it's funny. We think it's funny, oh, she's got a sweet tooth. What did it, cause that would, white people say sweet tooth. She's got a sweet tooth, she's got a this. No, no, no, no sweet tooth. You, you gave them the sweet tooth.

• 1:13:27Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:13:28Patrick Bet-David?

  By introducing them to this stuff and making it like it's, so I think the bigger concern here is with kids, starting early with diet, and I think that's what he was talking to her about. And so, we'll, we'll see what happens. Of course, a lot of people are abusing the system, but for me, if I'm giving you money to go eat, there needs to be restrictions of what you can buy with this.

• 1:13:49Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:13:50Patrick Bet-David?

  Snap that's been given to you. So eliminate some of the restrictions as in, no, you can't buy that.

• 1:13:54Speaker 03

  There are certain, there are certain restrictions. Like, you can't buy-

• 1:13:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Coke is a restriction?

• 1:14:00Speaker 03

  Listen, I'm not advocating for Coca-Cola. I'm saying, but there are restrictions, meaning that-

• 1:14:03Speaker 02

  You can't buy a-

• 1:14:04Speaker 03

  You can't buy alcohol, you can't buy tobacco.

• 1:14:06Speaker 02

  Yeah, of course.

• 1:14:06Speaker 03

  What, what's weird is they don't let you buy hot prepared meals. If you ever go to Publix and you go to the, that's actually healthy. Versus like, they'll let you buy chips, snacks, cookies.

• 1:14:14Patrick Bet-David?

  Here's what you can't buy with Snap. Can't. Alcohol.

• 1:14:18Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 1:14:18Patrick Bet-David?

  Cigarettes, tobacco, nicotine products, cannabis and CBD. Thank God.

• 1:14:22Speaker 03

  Thank God, right?

• 1:14:23Speaker 02

  Thank God for that.

• 1:14:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Now, watch what else you can't buy with Snap. You can't buy vitamins.

• 1:14:26Speaker 03

  Vitamins. You should be able to buy vitamins.

• 1:14:28Patrick Bet-David?

  You can't buy supplements.

• 1:14:29Speaker 03

  You should be able to buy that.

• 1:14:29Patrick Bet-David?

  You can't buy hot prepared foods at point of sale. You cannot use it at restaurant meals, right? When you go on certain plates. You can't buy pet food, which is probably a good thing.

• 1:14:38Speaker 03

  That's good.

• 1:14:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Feeding your kids cat food is not good. Cleaning supplies, paper products, soap, laundry detergent, cosmetics, personal hygiene, live animals. You, I cannot even believe they put that on, no, literally it says you cannot buy live animals with-

• 1:14:52Speaker 03

  So you can buy the live off or take them home.

• 1:14:57Patrick Bet-David?

  So to me, the question is, can you buy soda and candy in certain states, beginning in 2026? I love this. You ready? What state's leading this? Florida.

• 1:15:08Speaker 03

  Yay, it's doing what?

• 1:15:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, and Indiana have received USDA approval to prohibit SNAP purchases of certain items such as soda, candy, some energy drinks, and in some states, certain sweetened beverage or prepared desserts. Good for you, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, and Indiana.

• 1:15:25Speaker 03

  Nice.

• 1:15:25Patrick Bet-David?

  I think three of them are red states. I don't know if Indiana would be considered a red state.

• 1:15:29Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:15:29Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, so there you go.

• 1:15:30Speaker 03

  If you think SNAP is expensive, wait till you see what it costs when these kids are diabetic and on medication.

• 1:15:35Speaker 02

  That's all I was just gonna say. And then what happens?

• 1:15:37Speaker 03

  And then who's paying for that?

• 1:15:38Speaker 02

  Big Pharma comes in, sells the medication.

• 1:15:40Speaker 03

  Oh, the taxpayers are paying for both sides.

• 1:15:42Speaker 02

  Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

• 1:15:43Speaker 03

  The taxpayer's bottom of soda, the taxpayers are paying for his insulin.

• 1:15:46Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. Okay, let me get to the next word. Next word I want to get to, folks, is GTA. The greatest launch of a video game in the history of mankind. Their commercial, their second trailer, within 24 hours, got 450 million views. Record breaking. 450 million views was their second trailer. I'm not going to play the trailer. If you can just show the viewership where it's at now, go a little bit lower. The combined views they got within 24 hours, not just this one, everywhere on all platforms, 450 million views. They just hit a billion in how many downloads they've already sold of the video game commitments? The game doesn't come out till November of this year.

• 1:16:24Patrick Bet-David?

  The standard edition is $79. The ultimate edition is $99.99, and most people are buying that video game, okay? They're expected to sell 40 to 45 million of this. This is it.

• 1:16:37Speaker 03

  Wow.

• 1:16:38Patrick Bet-David?

  It has become a phenomenon, okay? Pre-order sales.

• 1:16:43Patrick Bet-David?

  $3 billion in revenue, Vinny. GTA 6 has reportedly surpassed 39 million pre-order sales and $3 billion in revenue. Nobody knows anything about the game yet. They haven't even told you what's gonna happen with this. It's already there, okay? The biggest release ever and the game doesn't come out till November. Insanity, when you think about this, insanity. Wall Street remains bullish. BTIG initiated coverage of Take-Two Interactive with a buy rating of a $290 price target. Analysts, they're talking about this is gonna be the biggest hit ever. Raymond James and Andrew Merrick say the pricing is broadly in line with expectations.

• 1:17:25Patrick Bet-David?

  He believes $80 is reasonable despite exceeding the industry's current $70 standard. If there's one game that can price at $80 without garnering significant player pushback, it's Grand Theft Auto VI. Is that game, given its massive scale and anticipation? He notes that the ultimate edition carries only a 25% premium over the base game the smallest premium rock star has charged for a deluxe edition. Tom, why is this such a big deal?

• 1:17:51Speaker 03

  This is a legendary franchise. This is one of the top three selling video games of all time. Number one, of course, is Tetris in all of its form. That's number one. Minecraft, I believe, is number two and number three. This is one of the Mount Rushmore franchises of video games. They've sold, you know how many units have been sold, guys? 460 million units. They're closing in on half a billion units across with this release. The last release, which was 13 years ago, GTA V? I remember this, it was $1 billion in three days. A billion dollars in three days. Now, this is 3 billion on pre-sale, waiting to go.

• 1:18:37Speaker 03

  This has been, and there's two sides to it. Parents hated this. GTA, you're terrorizing around town, doing all these things, robbing cars. There were things happening with prostitutes. Parents hated it, but it became this insane... Insane, insane franchise. Um, and what's really interesting, and by the way, these are the units you're looking at there. You're not even looking at dollars. GTA is, it's five on units. When you get to dollars, it's top three. When you look at-

• 1:19:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Mario's number one at 950.

• 1:19:09Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:19:09Patrick Bet-David?

  That's Mario Aguilar. Look at Tetris.

• 1:19:11Speaker 03

  Well, Tetris is more dollars.

• 1:19:16Speaker 03

  These are units. I like Tetris. These are units. I was talking about dollars, but the, the point still stands. Look at this thing today.

• 1:19:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Tom, when's the last time you played Tetris?

• 1:19:23Speaker 03

  Uh, Tetris? I still play Tetris from time to time.

• 1:19:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you really?

• 1:19:26Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 1:19:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, the only thing you see me playing is Backgammon. I'm a Backgammon guy, but let me tell you-

• 1:19:30Speaker 03

  I have an old Tetris on a handheld that I still put batteries-

• 1:19:33Patrick Bet-David?

  The silver one, the gray one?

• 1:19:34Speaker 03

  But it's, it's like bad. You gotta put the batteries in real careful. The plastic's old, but I still have it there back when, uh, JamDad acquired Tetris rights. And that's part of why EA bought, um, uh, JamDad. But the, the, the last point I want to make here is this is a phenomenon, but this has been one of the big criticisms of the impact on young men. This game is, is morally bankrupt, and that's the whole point of it. Grand Theft Auto, morally bankrupt. The big controversy that happened, you're gonna remember this now. There was the Liberty City version of it that people didn't like it-

• 1:20:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Watch your language with Liberty City.

• 1:20:13Speaker 03

  Cause it brought Miami down. There was the- From Iran. There was, there was also going back at the GTA V era, the, the Ballad of Gay Tony. There were all of these versions that came out with that they unabashedly went out there-

• 1:20:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Gay Tony?

• 1:20:27Speaker 03

  Yeah, and here's Liberty City stories-

• 1:20:29Patrick Bet-David?

  Who's Gay Tony?

• 1:20:29Speaker 02

  Our Booker.

• 1:20:30Speaker 03

  Our Booker.

• 1:20:31Patrick Bet-David?

  No, no, who's Gay Tony?

• 1:20:32Speaker 03

  No, look it up. Go GTA, go GTA-

• 1:20:34Patrick Bet-David?

  Is it really? There was a Gay Tony character?

• 1:20:35Speaker 02

  Don't be getting on my Tony.

• 1:20:36Adam Sosnick?

  Fat Tony, I think it was Fat Tony.

• 1:20:38Speaker 02

  Gay Tony?

• 1:20:39Speaker 03

  The Ballad of Gay Tony.

• 1:20:41Patrick Bet-David?

  What does that mean, the Ballad of Gay Tony?

• 1:20:42Speaker 03

  That was, it was an era where this guy Gay Tony was one of the- I mean, they didn't-

• 1:20:48Adam Sosnick?

  Gay Tony's taking over the game.

• 1:20:50Speaker 03

  They didn't leave anybody out. Every episode, every bruise of GTA offended somebody, and usually it was always parents.

• 1:20:58Speaker 02

  Listen, I'm, Pat, you wanna know my opinion? I don't, I don't see why anybody would wanna pay, what was it, ninety-nine dollars?

• 1:21:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 1:21:04Speaker 02

  For a freaking game. Like, if you wanna steal cars, rob people, shoot at cops, do drugs, get hookers, Tom, then beat them up afterwards, just go to Los Angeles. You could do it in real life, and at least the graphics are better, cuz you're actually doing it real, and you probably won't even go to jail. Do it, do it for real. Why need to play a video game?

• 1:21:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Advice. By the way, Burj Khalifa took six years to build with one and a half billion dollars. This took thirteen years to build, full production, eight years, and two billion dollars. So the Burj Khalifa, if you wanna pull up the Burj Khalifa, please, so people can see the picture of it. The Burj Khalifa, okay, this, this, the biggest building, by the way, I don't know if you, have you ever been to it, Vinnie, all the way at the top? Cuz all the way at the top, they sell pastry. The, when you're at the top, the building moves a little bit. I know you and I like that kinda stuff.

• 1:21:48Speaker 02

  I love that.

• 1:21:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Burj Khalifa, that building right there, costs less to make than this video game. Is that not crazy?

• 1:21:56Speaker 03

  You know, if you're fifty, Bert, you know what I'm gonna give you?

• 1:21:57Patrick Bet-David?

  What's that?

• 1:21:58Speaker 03

  You, they only do about five of them or ten of them a year, and you have to pay for it. They will take you up, hook you on a harness, and take a picture of you sitting at the spire on the antenna on the very top, and a helicopter with a long lens takes your picture.

• 1:22:12Patrick Bet-David?

  You, you think that's a birthday gift?

• 1:22:15Speaker 02

  Pat, you love heights. I know, we know that.

• 1:22:18Speaker 03

  But you're, you're, you're up like this, you're on a harness.

• 1:22:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Adam and I went one time to buy a penthouse, a fifty-fourth floor, at what is that property? The one in Miami, what is the name of it? It's a beautiful, it looks like the female's body, the, the designer died after she designed it.

• 1:22:31Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:22:31Patrick Bet-David?

  With one thousand biscuit. We went all the way to the top. I had to hold Adam, he was so worried about heights. I'm like, Adam, just look over, he wouldn't do it.

• 1:22:37Speaker 02

  Right, that was me.

• 1:22:38Patrick Bet-David?

  But, uh, anyways, yeah, it's, uh, it's, uh, it's wild. I know you're not a video game guy.

• 1:22:43Speaker 02

  No, I, I, I have, I have a comment, but I wanna start with a question for you. Do you let your kids play video games still?

• 1:22:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Saturdays and Sundays. Two hours Saturdays and Sundays.

• 1:22:51Speaker 06

  What's the rule? What's the limit?

• 1:22:53Patrick Bet-David?

  If you have one C, if you have one C, you can't play. Saturday is Sunday. If you want to play, you have to do legs. Everybody has to do legs.

• 1:23:01Speaker 06

  Really?

• 1:23:01Patrick Bet-David?

  You have to read 20 pages. And then if you do those two things, you get to play two hours on Saturdays and Sundays.

• 1:23:08Speaker 06

  Respect.

• 1:23:08Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 1:23:09Speaker 06

  Uh, do you play video games ever?

• 1:23:11Speaker 02

  I used to play Call of Duty, but dude, it was like literally six hours just yelling at frigging kids in Germany. And I can't.

• 1:23:18Speaker 06

  Well, I'll just give you a quick anecdote. Uh, the last time I actually played video games, I think I was like eight years old. And you know, they say everything in moderation. Uh, Super Mario Brothers came out, Nintendo. Bro, I'm missing school. I'm not playing sports. I'm just in that thing. My dad comes in the, in the house one day. He came home from work. I'm playing video games. He comes into the house. Literally looks at me, doesn't say a word, grabs the thing, tosses it in the garbage. I'm like, no, video game. He goes, here's a basketball. Get your ass outside. Get to work. And I swear to God, it's the last time I've ever had a video game console in my house, in my life. What'd that lead to?

• 1:23:55Patrick Bet-David?

  What a great father.

• 1:23:56Speaker 06

  I'm telling you, at the time I hated him, but ended up playing basketball, getting a sports scholarship to one of the best schools in Miami. Miami Country Day ended up changing my life. What's my, what's my advice to the average person out there? Everything in moderation. If you're playing a game or, you know, an hour or two, good for you. If you're spending 10, 20, 40 hours a week. It's basically a full-time job. Get out there, touch some grass, read a book, ride a bike, hit the gym. This is probably not doing anything good for your life and maybe there's something better outside for you.

• 1:24:24Patrick Bet-David?

  All right, let's go to the next one. The next one I'm going to is a story from an organization, Tom. ITR. Can you pull up ITR that's been around since 1948? Just type in ITR 1948. Uh, yeah, just type in 1948. These guys have been predicting and forecasting what's going to happen to the economy. Okay. Uh, since 1948.

• 1:24:49Patrick Bet-David?

  And they've been accurate 94.7% of the time. 94.7% of the time, they've been accurate. Okay, they just came out and they predicted. They state that this figure is far as their overall forecast accuracy since 1985. Based on their own audited methodology, it's not a claim that they correctly predicted 90. It is a claim that 94.7% of all economic events. And ITR has for years argued that the world is heading towards a major global depression in 2030 with the Trump, with the Trump around 2036. So around a six-year period, they have built an entire research series around this thesis.

• 1:25:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Their argument is the following, and Tom, I'm coming to you first and then definitely to Vinnie next. Yes. Their argument is based on several long-term structural trends. Number one, aging population and shrinking workforce. Number two, high government debt levels. Number three, rising entitlement obligations, which we just talked about snapping one of them. Number four, slower productivity growth. And number five, demographic shifts occurring simultaneously across many developed countries. Tom, do you agree with them that there will be a major global depression in the 2030s?

  I get so many headaches every month. It could be chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more. Botox, onabotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS, Lou Gehrig's

• 1:28:24Speaker 06

  disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. Why wait? Ask your doctor.

• 1:29:09Speaker 03

  So, to answer your question from earlier, I didn't remember it was ITR, but I remember reading about this, this long-term thing. And I believe, I don't know if it's the 30s, but there is merit to something. The first is... People are retiring in the United States and they're not being replaced with people that are, you know, earning as much. And so one argument is, well, just open the borders and let everybody work and make sure everybody pays taxes. And company, uh, country debt and the long-term obligations on social security and Medicare. We're already having the discussions. As a matter of fact, there was a poll last week and we, we, did we cover the story? I think we covered the story, Pat.

• 1:29:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Which one?

• 1:29:53Speaker 03

  The poll about how people, it was a poll and it was bookended. People in their 30s were not in favor of, of continuing to pay higher taxes for social security, but people in their 70s were not in favor of cutting their social security benefits. So that the chart was like an X exactly along what you would think of the, the 10-year age lines. So there's, there's two parts to it. They're correct about government debt needs to be corrected. When we're paying now more interest on the debt than our defense spending, we got a problem. So that's got to work itself out. And then what do we do with the aging population? We already see what's happening to healthcare. And what they're, what this

• 1:30:34Speaker 03

  study just says, listen, guys, somewhere around 2030, three years from now, it's got a break and it's got a shift and it will take five years to correct itself. So they're saying there would be like a 2008 to 2009. Remember we had a bounce back in 2009? Guess what? What they're saying, it's going to be a 2008 and it's not going to bounce back to 2013. So they're saying there's going to be this major correction based on these things. I can't argue against their arguments of the macro factors. Does it happen this way? Or do we find ways around it? Um, I don't know. Is Elon Musk right that we're going to have such productivity boom that we're going to have UBI for everybody under

• 1:31:19Speaker 03

  a hundred grand a year? That everybody under a hundred grand is just going to get paid for out of the taxes because we're going to tax the robots and stuff? But, um, I'll tell you, you can't argue against their points. Their points are right.

• 1:31:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. And by the way, a part of it is the fertility rate. The other one is boomers are retiring and we got to take care of them with social security. We saw the numbers if you want to pull it up with social security. It's running out in 2032, which by the way, when you're sitting down and thinking about the numbers, they've been saying this in your. If you've not looked at your social security statement, just so you know. In your social security statement, you know what they put in there the last 20 years? That this is gonna run out of money in 2032. Like, you know, when you get yours, have you ever looked at your social security statement?

• 1:32:00Adam Sosnick?

  Nope.

• 1:32:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, when they send it in, they tell you, they've been telling you this for 20 plus years. The fund is gonna run out of money by 2032 ish. I don't know what the exact numbers, but they've been saying that. So, yeah, right there. So what is that? Social Security insolvency now projected for 2032, putting benefits. At risk of a 22% cut. You know who's worried about this? The 70 million Americans across the board. Benefits that are sitting there saying, what do you mean you're gonna cut 22% of it by 2032? We don't have a choice, is what they're saying. We don't have the money. So they're talking about boomers retiring and they're counting on this. Major economies like China, Europe, Japan, South Korea are aging simultaneously. The government debt, which is what we just talked about.

• 1:32:43Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh, millions of experienced workers retiring, fewer young workers replacing them. Rising wages squeeze business margins while. Slowing overall economic growth. You just saw the story with Apple, which we'll get into here in a minute. Adam, when you hear something like this, how do you react to it?

• 1:33:00Adam Sosnick?

  Well, you know, said if you don't learn from history, you're destined to repeat it. They're saying this is gonna start in the, in the 2030s.

• 1:33:05Patrick Bet-David?

  Depression begins around 2030 is what they say and it ends in 2036.

• 1:33:10Adam Sosnick?

  So exactly 100 years prior was basically, I think, Black Tuesday. That was, I think, in 1929, October of 1929, that's basically when the stock market crashed. And then 1930s was a, was a season where the banks failed, unemployment, I think, went to 25%. Businesses were closed and then FDR came out the new deal and the coup de grace was basically US entered World War. Uh, two i- in 1941. So it was a, it was a horrible year for America, but it was a worse year. Worst decade for the rest of the world. Now, are they saying that this is gonna be a global depression?

• 1:33:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Global depression.

• 1:33:44Adam Sosnick?

  The globe, so not even the United States.

• 1:33:46Patrick Bet-David?

  No, no, no, global.

• 1:33:46Adam Sosnick?

  Exactly. So here's my point. You know, they say when the United States sneezes, the rest of the world gets a cold. So I'd be way more worried if I'm the rest of the world.

• 1:33:54Patrick Bet-David?

  Reserved currency.

• 1:33:56Adam Sosnick?

  Covid. What happened? I don't want to, I don't want to get Covid.

• 1:33:58Patrick Bet-David?

  Covid.

• 1:33:59Adam Sosnick?

  That's what's going to happen. But, look, all you can do, like, who knows if this is going to happen or not? All you could do is equip yourself in the meantime to work, earn, save, and invest, and put yourself in a position that, God forbid, something like this happens. You have the skills and the prerequisites to make sure that you're not one of the masses who are waiting in a food line.

• 1:34:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Guy asked me a question on my neck, literally, two days ago, saying, Pat, if this is what you guys are talking about, and this is what's going to be happening in the future, how are you personally preparing yourself for this?

• 1:34:24Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 1:34:24Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay. Our brand is what? Future looks bright. Right behind you, right there. Boom. Future looks bright.

• 1:34:29Adam Sosnick?

  I don't even got to turn around, Pat. I already know by heart.

• 1:34:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, it's right behind you, right? Future looks bright, and we believe in that. I fully believe in that, and my job when I get around anybody is to try to baptize you into believing that as well. Anywhere I go, I especially wear the hat because it's such a big conversation starter. Anywhere you go, people look at you, and when anybody frowns, like, eh, they make a noise like that, what happened? Do you not agree the future looks bright? No, I don't believe the future looks bright. And you want to have that conversation with them. But he says, what are you doing in a situation like this? I said, look, you can, one, hear fear porn like this and get scared and do nothing. That is the worst thing you can do.

• 1:35:04Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:35:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Number two, you can diversify your assets and know that if a global depression takes place, guess what's taking a hit? And any, you, you don't know what's going to be taking a hit. Potentially, everything could be taking a hit. But if you have a little bit of gold, if you have a little bit of real estate, if you have some stocks, if you have some crypto, if you have some

• 1:35:25Patrick Bet-David?

  non-duplicatable assets, and you have savings in place to get through it, you should be okay. But I think that the reason why this is going to be happening eventually, and I don't know the exact timeline on when it will happen, you know why I think, Tom, this is going to be eventually happening? Because no candidate can actually do what is the right thing to do for America and get elected. That's the problem.

• 1:35:49Speaker 03

  And no one will.

• 1:35:50Patrick Bet-David?

  No, no, because hey, what are you gonna campaign for? I'm cutting social security and extending the age five years. Okay, you're done. What are you gonna do? I'm eliminating 80% of SNAP and only the people that are gonna get it, you have a six-month timeline before you go and get a job. Okay, you're not getting elected. What are you gonna do? I'm cutting spending in every aspect of our spending. We're gonna renegotiate all the contracts and do. Oh, you're going to jail. What are you gonna do? Everything you campaign on, which is the right thing to do, you're probably not gonna get elected.

• 1:36:19Speaker 03

  And here's what happens, guys. Pull up the thing I just sent you. Protest against austerity in Athens and Berlin, 2013.

• 1:36:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Is this it?

• 1:36:27Speaker 03

  2015.

• 1:36:28Speaker 02

  Older Americans support raising taxes.

• 1:36:30Speaker 03

  This is the chart that's hysterical, where younger American says, "Cut benefits for grandpa." Grandpa says, "No, cut benefits for the young workers." And then grandpa says, "Keep my retirement." And the young workers said, "No." So guess what? Both ends are voting for themselves.

• 1:36:45Patrick Bet-David?

  For sure they are. Of course, that's how they vote.

• 1:36:47Speaker 03

  And now watch the Guardian, the Guardian article, guys, that I just sent you. It's in the... There we go. This, this here, send that away. This is 2015. Let me read the below, read below it. Obviously, this guy's bloodied up. "Demonstrations against the Greek bailout deal were staged in Berlin as riots broke out in Athens and some of the most serious violence in over two years. Police responded with tear gas." Why is that? Because hundreds of people were protesting after the Greek parliament voted to approve austerity measures. Translation: They cut social security and they raise taxes on the youth. And take a look. All the young people are in favor of, "Hey, cut the benefits a little for the older."

• 1:37:30Speaker 03

  And then you had old people also protesting as, "No! This is what happened in Greece when the parliament went bankrupt and they had no choice."

• 1:37:38Patrick Bet-David?

  I remember that.

• 1:37:38Speaker 03

  2015.

• 1:37:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, I mean, that's coming to America.

• 1:37:42Speaker 03

  That's exactly right.

• 1:37:42Patrick Bet-David?

  And it's gonna be a feud between the elderly and the youth. And they're gonna say, "You screwed us over." That's what the youth is gonna say.

• 1:37:49Speaker 03

  You can't cut my benefits!

• 1:37:50Patrick Bet-David?

  And the older folks are gonna be like, "You have no right to tell me anything. I've been working and paying my taxes and I deserve every penny. This is what I..." So that argument's gonna create a bit of a division. By the way, prices. Apple gets criticized yesterday. They lose $270 billion of market cap because they announced they're raising their prices. Let me tell you what the prices are looking like. The MacBook Air 13 inch, 512 gigabyte. Old price, $10.99. New price, $12.99. It's up 20%, give or take, $200. MacBook Air from $16.99 to $19.99. This is the 1 terabyte. MacBook Neo, $5.99 to $6.99. iPad Air 11, $5.99 to $7.49. Big percentage. iPad Pro, $9.99 to $11.99.

• 1:38:34Patrick Bet-David?

  iPad Pro 13 inch, $12.99 to $14.99. HomePod, $2.99 to $3.49. HomePod Mini, $99 to $129. Vision Pro, $34.99 to $36.99. So Macs roughly up 15 to 20%. iPads roughly up 15 to 25%. Apple TV and HomePod products also increased. No increase yet that they've announced on iPhone, Apple Watch, or AirPods. Very interesting. You know who followed suit? Xbox. Microsoft followed suit and they raised their prices on everything. They raised the Microsoft 365 Basic from $6 to $7. Like literally on every single thing. They increased it by 15, 17, 21. And on the Windows Enterprise per device, they increased it by 31%. Why?

• 1:39:19Patrick Bet-David?

  Can you tell us, Tom, why? Are these guys jerks? Are they just rich capitalists? Or did they have to do it because their cost is going up?

• 1:39:26Speaker 03

  Well, we all know what happened to groceries when diesel fuel went up, right? Well, guess what the diesel fuel of a computer is? A processor chip and then memory chips. And memory chips are ridiculously inflated right now because there's a shortage, because the demand's up. So they haven't been, there's not like a war stopping chips from being made. Just the demand suddenly skyrockets with data centers, more deluxe consoles. Everything needs chips. And do you remember when there was an actual shortage of chips during COVID? Because the chip workers couldn't go to work? What happened to cars?

• 1:40:02Speaker 02

  Got more expensive.

• 1:40:03Speaker 03

  Because what was in the dashboard of cars?

• 1:40:05Speaker 02

  Chips.

• 1:40:06Speaker 03

  Ford even told you.

• 1:40:07Speaker 02

  Chips.

• 1:40:07Speaker 03

  There were three chips that were part of a board that made the in-dash system in the navigation. And Ford said, I can't get those chips. I got the whole car ready to go, but I can't get these chips. And it was a chip shortage of 2020, 2023 during COVID. And that was where workers weren't, they were like, you have to be six feet apart. Well, you know, some of them are furloughed. Now what you have is people are still making chips, but Pat, they're not making enough of them fast enough. We have a shortage.

• 1:40:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. Well, I mean, it's gonna end up happening more and more. And this leads to what they're saying could happen in 2030. Some of, some of it's gotta get regulated. I like what the president said yesterday where he's like, look, I want to do the housing thing to help the people that at the bottom are trying to buy a house. But at the same time, some of the people that are finally rich and they have some equity, I also don't want them to lose their wealth.

• 1:40:55Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 1:40:55Patrick Bet-David?

  It's a very interesting, because that's all sort. Kind of like Brandon's like, I think there needs to be market correction. Why? Because he's trying to buy a house.

• 1:41:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, obviously.

• 1:41:01Patrick Bet-David?

  And a person that owns a house is like, no, I don't want a market correction right now. I want to be able to sell my house and keep that. So that feud, I think it's gonna intensify. Vinny, I think that feud's gonna intensify. I want to wrap up with the last story here because I gotta go see somebody. Is a story between the comparison of this girl named Millie Alcock, I think is her last name. Is that Al's?

• 1:41:22Speaker 02

  No S, just Alcock. Not Al's, that's a whole different story.

• 1:41:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Are you joking with me or no?

• 1:41:28Speaker 02

  No, I'm serious. It's Al.

• 1:41:28Patrick Bet-David?

  I am so sorry. I thought it was, okay, I'm sorry. Millie Alcock, my, I didn't do that on purpose. Millie Alcock from Supergirl, who is giving her interview. And then I want you to see the girl, Indy Navarrete. Indy, if you're out there, I have a friend who kinda likes you.

• 1:41:45Speaker 02

  She has a boyfriend.

• 1:41:46Patrick Bet-David?

  Does she really? But listen.

• 1:41:47Speaker 02

  Not anymore.

• 1:41:47Patrick Bet-David?

  I have a better boyfriend for you.

• 1:41:49Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 1:41:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Indy Navarrete from Obsession, which we both watch Obsession. She made the movie.

• 1:41:54Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 1:41:55Patrick Bet-David?

  She is ridiculous.

• 1:41:56Speaker 02

  Can we put her on screen?

• 1:41:57Patrick Bet-David?

  So let's see both interviews and you tell me how you feel about it. Vinny, this is your first.

• 1:42:02Speaker 02

  There's two of them, Connor, there's this one and then there's, I want you to play the, yeah, play this one first, Pat. This is just, she, by the way, you would think she'd seen the, like, if you're playing as an actor, as an actress. If you're playing Supergirl, don't you think doing the research and watching the actual original would be something good?

• 1:42:19Patrick Bet-David?

  It'd be a good thing to do.

• 1:42:19Speaker 02

  Okay. And then, yeah, after this one, I'll show the other one. But yeah, play this one really quick.

• 1:42:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh oh.

• 1:42:22Adam Sosnick?

  Did you watch the original Supergirl movie?

• 1:42:24Speaker 06

  I haven't. I haven't.

• 1:42:27Adam Sosnick?

  Do you watch a lot of comic book films?

• 1:42:29Speaker 06

  Sometimes.

• 1:42:30Adam Sosnick?

  Sometimes? Have you gotten more into it through this experience and James Gunn kind of telling you about the ropes?

• 1:42:35Speaker 06

  Yeah, definitely. Yeah, my fa- I'd say my favorite like superhero film is The Incredibles.

• 1:42:42Adam Sosnick?

  That film is so, so good. Both of them. Amazing. And we'll get a third one soon too.

• 1:42:50Speaker 06

  Hopefully, yeah.

• 1:42:52Speaker 02

  All right, show the other clip. Now, this is, this is a reporter that's trying, I don't want to say Bader Papp, but it's, it's Pride Month, and he's basically asking, like, if the character that she played in the movie, could they possibly be in the LGBTQ community?

• 1:43:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Why does that even matter?

• 1:43:05Speaker 02

  That's what I'm saying. This is Hollywood.

• 1:43:07Adam Sosnick?

  The most important thing.

• 1:43:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Question online about Charis queerness in the box. Was that something that you explored when you were preparing for the role?

• 1:43:16Speaker 06

  It wasn't, but in honor of Pride Month, as I'm getting all these questions, I don't know. I think that what makes this film so beautiful is that it's not centered around a man. It's not centered around love.

• 1:43:26Speaker 02

  Great.

• 1:43:27Speaker 06

  If anything, but we'll see. I don't really, I don't really know, but I, I don't, I don't know. I don't know.

• 1:43:35Speaker 02

  It's great.

• 1:43:36Speaker 06

  She'd probably go both ways.

• 1:43:37Speaker 02

  She probably goes both ways. By the way, Supergirl's an audience DC. It's like kids, a lot of, like, why would you even bring, like?

• 1:43:45Patrick Bet-David?

  Is this a girl from Obsession?

• 1:43:46Speaker 02

  And now, okay, now guys, like, do me a favor. This is, this is the Indy Navarrete from, from Obsession. You want to talk about class and how to conduct a proper interview, Pat? This is how you do the interview.

• 1:43:59Adam Sosnick?

  Come the obsession of so many folks from Obsession. Did you know that this was going to be such a hit?

• 1:44:04Speaker 06

  No, not at all. I feel like whenever we were making it, we had so much fun. And the fact that everybody else is kind of having this response, we're just like, oh my God. So we feel involved, but also kind of like, how did we get here? You know? It's just mind boggling.

• 1:44:18Adam Sosnick?

  Everybody's trying to cast you in the next thing, including they want you to be cast alongside.

• 1:44:22Speaker 04

  Michael B. Jordan in his next movie, The Fourth Wing. And you have seen this. I have seen this because I said that I'm a really big fan of Fourth Wing and I would love to play Violet, but I mean, at the end of the day, I really want the studio to find who they want to find and what everybody thinks is like the perfect role, but if that happens to me, that would be phenomenal.

• 1:44:38Speaker 02

  So if you could send a message to them right now, what would you tell them?

• 1:44:42Speaker 04

  I want you guys to pick the perfect Violet and if it happens to be me, then that would be beautiful, but if not, I will tune in anyways.

• 1:44:49Patrick Bet-David?

  You know what?

• 1:44:49Speaker 03

  What a great answer.

• 1:44:50Patrick Bet-David?

  Like, seriously.

• 1:44:51Speaker 03

  India, call Vinnie already.

• 1:44:53Speaker 02

  Leave her alone.

• 1:44:54Speaker 03

  Stop playing games.

• 1:44:55Speaker 02

  But like, like.

• 1:44:56Speaker 03

  Vinnie's right here.

• 1:44:57Speaker 02

  And you would like.

• 1:44:57Speaker 03

  No, Vinnie, stop it.

• 1:44:58Speaker 02

  Look at the difference.

• 1:44:59Speaker 03

  She's clearly talking to you when she's doing this interview, Vinnie.

• 1:45:02Speaker 02

  You would think after the studios.

• 1:45:03Speaker 03

  All right, all right. I'm gonna lift you up, Vinnie.

• 1:45:04Speaker 02

  Saw Rachel Zegler and Snow White, every studio would tell actors. Weird, weird. Keep the focus on the movie, okay? Who like, who, think about Adam, you're spending 170 million on the movie, probably 300 some million all around. If you're the director, if you're the producers, I would go up to them and say, listen, I know you have your own opinion and everything, but just shut up about anything LGB, stop alienating people. We put up the money. We're the ones that put up 170 million, probably 300 million with all the advertising and everything. Will you please shut up? And I get the debating reporters, that's the reporter's job, said, yeah, is she gay? Is this, is that? Even that guy was trying to bait her into saying something, but it's like, bro, come on, man.

• 1:45:48Speaker 02

  Hollywood keeps making the same mistake, all right? Just, and then they act shocked when the box office happens and they all lose it.

• 1:46:22Speaker 06

  I get so many headaches every month.

• 1:47:23Speaker 02

  It could be chronic migraine. Fifteen or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more. Botox, onabotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms. Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition. Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue, and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS, Lou Gehrig's

• 1:48:05Speaker 02

  disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. Why wait? Ask your doctor. Visit botoxchronicmigraine.com or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.

  Well, that's why you're here because the Hollywood red carpet is a bubble. It's a degenerate bubble and you're not there anymore. You're here. You're doing VT comedy. You're doing, you know, hot takes, hot cakes. You're doing the

• 1:49:05Speaker 03

  and the reason you're here and you're not part of that is because of this. And this doesn't surprise me, but guess what? The expiration date on these bubble heads is coming because they're all going to be AI actors and actresses.

• 1:49:16Patrick Bet-David?

  You just hope the following time, you just hope like, I remember when I was first coming up in insurance and I, you know, I was very childlike and I was very excited. It was like, man, I was like, I'm in love with this industry. I love what we're doing. They would say, man, don't change, Pat, don't change. Keep this, you know, twinkle, this excitement, the way, you know, this, this feeling in as you're going. You just hope she doesn't change. You know, Andy's going to change, but you hope it doesn't become like so Hollywood and do you know who I am and stuff like that? Because that then, then you lose the person you originally you fell in love with, which the artist, you're like, I love this person. I'm rooting for them. But anyways, we are at the end of the podcast. We're going to wrap up earlier today than we usually do.

• 1:49:58Patrick Bet-David?

  Folks, thank you for all of you guys that went to VT merch.com to support Venezuela. And again, a hundred percent of anything you order today on the website is going to go to families in Venezuela that are impacted by it. If you have a family, let us know. We'd love to find a way with the amount of sales that we make today, whatever the amount is. Anything that comes through, we'll try to do our best to support them. But I got two things I want to announce, actually three of them.

• 1:50:20Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:50:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Let me first start off with announcing a couple that works for us and they do such a good job here. Alejandra and her husband. Yonardi Caballero. Such a great job. It is his birthday today. He never misses the podcast. Yonardi and Alejandra, Vinnie came and told me about it. So because of Vinnie, you're getting a shout out. Happy birthday to you. And then today, 17 years ago, my wife and I got married today. 17 years ago, we got married today. 12 years later, a little baby Brooklyn was born on our anniversary. Okay, so this is baby Brooklyn. She is five years old today. There is nothing like baby Brooklyn.

• 1:51:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Brooklyn is reminding everybody, he wants, she wants to make sure everybody knows.

• 1:51:08Speaker 02

  Look at them.

• 1:51:09Patrick Bet-David?

  It's her birthday today. She gives the best massages to daddy, the best kisses, fireball, favorite uncle, she's always with Vinny.

• 1:51:17Speaker 02

  I love her.

• 1:51:17Patrick Bet-David?

  Her and Vinny are always hanging out together at the house. They're together, so babe, uh, happy 17 year anniversary babe. It's been 17 years craziness. She gave me the best card this morning. It was the nicest card I got this morning. She put 17 things I'm grateful for of us being together for 17 years. The best card she, I told her, it's the best card you've ever given me. But 17 years today and in Brooklyn. Five, Brooklyn, we love you. You're the best. You're the number one fireball of the family. You're nonstop from the moment you wake up to sleep and I think Uncle Vinny wants to say something.

• 1:51:52Speaker 02

  I just, you can't get mad at me. She, she cornered me and she pressured me. I bought her candy.

• 1:51:57Patrick Bet-David?

  No, you didn't. Stop it.

• 1:51:59Speaker 02

  I got, okay. She was like, she brought me for five minutes and she goes, "Just get me a Ring Pop ring and a bracelet." I'm sorry, but she's a freaking lawyer. She's like, and then, and then, and ready for this? Melva's like, "No," and then she goes, "No, no, no." I had to. I can't lie to you. I'm not gonna lie to you. I bought her freaking candy. I'm sorry.

• 1:52:18Adam Sosnick?

  Number one, happy anniversary. Number, number two, happy birthday, Brooklyn. You're doing your father's day, uh, you're being a good father on, uh, July 1st, I wanna say.

• 1:52:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, July 1st, VTwebinar.com.

• 1:52:29Adam Sosnick?

  In honor of your anniversary, I'm just curious.

• 1:52:31Speaker 02

  And but, just, hold on, Vincent.

• 1:52:32Adam Sosnick?

  Okay, I'm sorry. I'm asking the boss a question. The key to staying married and happy and, and, and.

• 1:52:37Patrick Bet-David?

  You know, I told this to, I told this to, I told this to Taylor and Louis the other day. We went to dinner at Casa and with Tom, it was a great conversation. One of the best pieces of advice I got is you're going to have, you're going to have bad days.

• 1:52:53Patrick Bet-David?

  And you're gonna have bad months. You know, when you go through the bad days and bad months, the same way when the market goes through a bad year, don't overreact, stay in the market. Buy and hold, stay in the market, you're gonna go through it, you're gonna go through it. But do your best to buy and hold.

• 1:53:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Do your best to buy and hold, it's gonna be challenging when you're going through it, there's gonna be so many things that's gonna happen that nobody prepares you for, and everyone's gonna be different. Everyone's is gonna be different, as you're aging, health happens, like, you know, I've dealt with a bunch of things health-wise the last four months, health happens, you know, like, what is this all about, I've never experienced this before in life. And then life happens, or finances happen, or, you know, loss of a loved one in the family, or she's going through something, kids are going through something, big decisions you gotta make. Business decisions you gotta make, and you just, you just wanna be able to buy and hold and try to not make the decision in that moment. Take a year on the decision, because if you, if a year later you still feel that way, then maybe you must act on it, like, I'm glad my parents got a divorce.

  I think it was the right thing they did, it was just too chaotic, it was bad, and as a kid I didn't want it, but later on you're like, you know what? I understand why you guys did it, but to me, if you can buy and hold and through the tough times, uh, good for you guys, and remember, we also had a birthday for Tom three days ago, we wished Tom a happy birthday three days ago. And also Bailey.

• 1:54:14Speaker 02

  Bailey's birthday.

• 1:54:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Today.

• 1:54:15Speaker 02

  Today, same as, Bailey and Brooklyn are the same birthday.

• 1:54:18Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh yeah, oh yeah, the great Bailey, Bailey, you have to use the word great when you talk about Bailey's. Bailey's one of a kind.

• 1:54:24Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 1:54:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, no, Bailey's one of a kind, and she is, she's the oldest kid in the family, that everybody just kinda looks up to, and she's such a great example to everybody. When the kids are around, and you know what I like about Bailey, let me tell you what I like about Bailey. Every time I'm around Bailey, she wants to talk to me and she wants a relationship. We have a relationship, we have the best conversations together, and you know what I like about that? It's Tom brokers that relationship. Tom will encourage and say, "Go talk to Pat." Always we edify, because like if my kids want to talk to Tom, I always want to encourage them. I'll never say anything bad about Tom because I want their relationship. And sometimes, you know, when that dynamic isn't there, you can't give feedback to the person's kid because they have animosity towards you. They have certain things towards you.

• 1:55:07Patrick Bet-David?

  But Bailey and I's relationship, I'm so proud of her, of who she's become and what she's doing. She's just getting started. I'm telling you guys right now, Bailey's going to be a general manager of a major league baseball team one day. I'm telling you this, this is a very, very special kid. Raised by a great family, Kim, the whole family, Brooke, we love these guys. Bailey, happy birthday to you. I know you're doing some stuff this summer and we're excited to see you here soon. Hopefully we'll see you here soon.

  20, the teenage years are over.

• 1:55:36Speaker 02

  Oh, wow. Bailey, let's go.

• 1:55:38Speaker 03

  One of the coolest things that Tom does, I can't even imagine what's in her phone right now. The videos, every time that we have a celebrity here or a politician or someone basically influential, he sends the, he has them, send Bailey a video and I can't even imagine all the cool things he's doing. You're a great dad, Tom and PBD.

• 1:55:57Patrick Bet-David?

  Bailey, you're the best. Brooklyn, Jen, and is it Jonardi?
