• 0:13Speaker 00

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

• 0:17Patrick Bet-David?

  You are a one of one?

• 0:18Speaker 02

  My son's right there.

• 0:19Speaker 00

  I don't think I've ever said this before.

• 0:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Alright, so I hope everybody, Tom, we're live. So I hope everybody, that's the one thing about Tom, folks. Tom is a, everybody, like, the surveys came back, who's a bigger professional interrupter? Is it Adam or Tom? They're back. Obviously, Adam is the, you know, we have to kind of figure that out, but privately, like, you know some people that act so properly when the camera's on and the camera's off? That's Tom. Camera's on, Tom's proper, camera's off. He's interrupting all of us all the time. Like, we can't start our day with 50 interruptions, but here's one thing you have to realize with the survey. We learned one thing for a fact. You guys love Tom. My God, you love Tom. Rob, don't they love Tom? Be honest, Rob. They do.

• 1:05Patrick Bet-David?

  They love Tom so much, and if you love Tom that much, send him a minute and tell him you love him, because Tom loves you so much that out of respect for the audience, he shaved his mustache and his beard for the first time, for the first time since Nixon was president. He has shaved his mustache and we're grateful for it, Tom. You're amazing. We're trying to figure out what the story is right now. We don't know, but hopefully, everybody out there that's watching this, you had a great Mother's Day weekend. We did all these surprises. I got up, I bought all this stuff, you know, we got this big balloon set up in the house. And then in the morning, Brooklyn and Son, I come, they're like, "Let's go to the store. We want to buy our own things." So anyways, we go to the store. I gotta tell you this story. It's crazy. I'm at the store and I get a half a pound of martedella.

• 1:46Patrick Bet-David?

  I don't know if you guys like martedella or not. I love martedella. I can eat martedella all day long. It has the olives in it? And I get the martedella and I cut my, you know, mushrooms, is it portobello? Portobello mushrooms. Portobello mushrooms, and I make it, the omelet that I make, it's the greatest omelet in the world. I don't know if anybody can do any better omelets than that. I could start a side business group, building omelets. But I go to this store, whatever store it is that's within this area, at least, to buy food. And the lady looks at me with an attitude. You know, she looks like a Russian-Albanian-looking lady, okay? And probably in her early 50s, she looks at my shirt, I have a Future Looks Bright shirt on, she says, "You really believe that?"

• 2:29Patrick Bet-David?

  I said, yeah, you really believe the future looks bright? I said, absolutely. You don't? No, I don't believe the future looks bright. I said, here's the problem. She says, what's that? I said, both of us are gonna be right. She says, what do you mean? I said, well, I know one thing. If I believe the future looks crappy like you do, you're gonna be 100% right.

• 2:50Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:50Patrick Bet-David?

  I said, but I'm willing to take the risk of believing the future looks bright, even if there's 10% chance that's bright. Even if it's only 20%, I'm taking it. Then she says, yeah, I don't know if that's the right mindset. I said, don't you believe in God? She says, I believe in God. I said, how do you not believe the future looks bright if you believe in God?

• 3:09Speaker 03

  You have to.

• 3:09Patrick Bet-David?

  But that's after you die, Adam. That's after you die. Is you wanna put your headset on?

• 3:14Speaker 03

  They're working on it.

• 3:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, it's after you died is when you realize the future looks bright. And she says, I said, no, I say, you can believe future looks bright today. Anyways, sometimes it's so funny, like you're going through and you're wondering how that mindset is. Oh, man, you know, nothing's working out. Everything's gonna go wrong if it's going to. Choose your mindset daily, folks. That's all I will tell you. Whatever you do, you choose your mindset. Now, of course, we got a lot of stories to go through and for some of you guys that are waiting for the uh, the survey, we're gonna send that to you as well, cuz it's finally ready. I'll show it to you. And if you're wondering why I'm wearing this, I'll get to this in a minute. There's a guy in California that wants to sell you diapers and indirectly charge you 30 cents more

• 3:59Patrick Bet-David?

  and then somehow, some way, find a way to, for it to benefit his wife.

• 4:05Patrick Bet-David?

  I think his name is G, uh, what's his first, how does his first name?

• 4:08Speaker 03

  Gavin Newsom.

• 4:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Gavin Newsom, right. Good-looking guy, tall, very well-spoken, loves to move his hands. I mean, I don't know anybody that moves his hands more than he does. And by the way, what's crazy is there's not a day I go on X where somebody random says, this guy's impersonation of Gavin Newsom is perfect in his video. I see it every day. Number two, globalists unite, folks.

• 4:29Speaker 03

  Oh, yeah.

• 4:29Patrick Bet-David?

  Globalists unite. It's a big party, Canada. Carney got together with this guy named Barack Hussein Obama and another guy named Alex Soros. Father's name was. They got together to talk about a few different things. We don't know what the, maybe they were playing backgammon. Sometimes you jump to conclusion, Vinny.

• 4:45Speaker 03

  Don't know.

• 4:46Patrick Bet-David?

  They could have been playing Uno.

• 4:47Speaker 03

  You're right.

• 4:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Maybe they're playing FIFA soccer. Who knows what they're doing? They could be just talking. Or they could be talking about how can undermine President Trump and make his life a living kill. I don't know, but we're speculating. Number three, let me get to the next one here. Today, you know what's special about today? Today's the last day if they're gonna hold this guy named Fauci accountable because it's five years. And today is the 11th, if I'm not mistaken. Yes, Rob? It is the 11th. So come on, Rand Paul.

• 5:12Speaker 03

  Come on.

• 5:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Lot of people are like, well, you know, I don't know. I don't know if we should do it. I don't know if we shouldn't do it because he's got this pardon, all this other stuff. Millions of people want to see you do it. Now Costco figured something out, folks. Costco figured out that you and I are not ordering enough beef lately. And when we go to the store, we're ordering chicken and pork, and that's a problem, Vinny. When you don't order real beef, instead you order chicken or pork. That's a sign of possible recession being around the corner. Okay? It's a sign of possible, and by the way, the last two times they got it right, Costco. Okay, the last two times they got it right allegedly with this thing here.

• 5:49Speaker 03

  It's like the big short type situation?

• 5:51Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, I say this weekend, we all, every person that follows the podcast here, we all go buy beef this weekend. Just to kind of change it up. Can you imagine Costco all of a sudden going in and said, no, you got chicken? I'm not buying chicken. Just beef.

• 6:02Speaker 03

  No.

• 6:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Is what I want to buy.

• 6:03Speaker 03

  Carl's are happy as hell right now.

• 6:04Patrick Bet-David?

  Anyways, yeah, they're just freaking out in a big, it is, you're right. And then next one here. Rob and Vinny, show me this video. I don't know. I don't know if I like it or if I hate it because if you sleep with white noise.

• 6:16Speaker 03

  I have to.

• 6:17Patrick Bet-David?

  I, I love white noise. Like, you know, zzzzz. And I picked it up in the army because in the army, we had these shuff, uh, shuff, uh, what, what do you call it? The, these, these heaters.

• 6:27Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 6:28Patrick Bet-David?

  That they would have this loud noise all night and you would sleep like a little baby. In Utah, they're building this 62 square mile data center, Rob. That Kevin O'Leary is there. People are losing their minds saying, don't build it. To kind of put perspective, what 62 square mile is, that's three Manhattans. Let me say it one more time. That's three Manhattans in one area and you should hear the sound this thing makes. It's nuts, the sound that it makes. We'll show that clip, you gotta see what's going on there with these data centers. Next, Bibi did an interview. Adam was taking a lot of notes, he wrote a thesis, paper on it, and so we're gonna get in- My third one. Yeah, that's right, we're gonna get an update on that. By the way, Bibi does not look good.

• 7:10Patrick Bet-David?

  He does not look healthy, a lot of people were saying, and of course, we know, hopefully he's doing uh, uh, okay for himself and recovering from, Vinny, you said prostate- I, I, I'll look it up, I know he had cancer and he beat it- But he look like, he looks like he's going through it. But there was a lot of good questions that were asked, we'll address that as well. Next one we got here is, the peace deal with Iran. Trump wants to get that done before he goes to China. Rob, what is the meeting with Xi this week? Wednesday. It's coming up on Wednesday. And then in New York, you got this guy named Mondani, who decides to turn the chief, who's got a little bit of an accent, I don't know if he's Polish or Russian, but he's being asked, and he's like, "That's not my mayor." And so you know what happens to the chief?

• 7:54Patrick Bet-David?

  The guy gets demoted to a 911 operator. Can you imagine you go from being a chief to a 911 operator? That's like going from being the president to being the mayor of CHAZ. Right? Like you got demoted, Vinny. They just did that to him. So, you know, so he is now doing the ni- And then, by the way, there's videos, Rob, I know you got those videos you were telling me about. The George Washington Bridge, what was falling apart, Rob, like- A beam from the bridge fell as a driver was going underneath it. I mean, that's okay, what's the big deal with that? He's gonna fix it, he's gonna find a guy that's willing to give a free beam- Yeah. -to fix that thing for him. It's coming to New York City very soon. And then we got a couple other stories. New York City has lost 150,000 students.

• 8:38Patrick Bet-David?

  In their public schools, 150,000 students now. This is either because New York City middle income got so rich that they're all putting them in private schools now. Or because they left to a different place and then Spencer Pratt was asked. A question Spencer Pratt is becoming a rock. So I had a great conversation with him this weekend. Spencer Pratt was asked about the comparison between him and Mamdani. And you have to see it, Rob. Did you find it or you haven't? I did. Okay, you know which one I'm talking about where he makes a comparison of the free? We'll show it to you. You're definitely gonna love that one as we go through it and then of course we got a couple other stories we're gonna go through. On what's going on. I don't like the Wemby getting kicked out with that elbow.

• 9:17Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh, you know, he was having his Ron Artest moment. I don't like it. I know the score was still tied 109, 114 at the end. I'd like to see San Antonio Spurs win. Uh, because I like Wemby. Wemby's a tough guy and all these people that are bitching about. SGA flopping and all this stuff. Guess who he learned it from? LeBron James. So stop talking about. SGA is flopping. His coach was Chris Paul and LeBron James, the greatest flopper of all time. How about them Knicks though? Oh my God, 144. They swept. What's going on with these guys? They swept the 76ers. Knicks, Knicks. And by the way, the, yeah, and by the way, you know, based on the survey. To bring this up.

• 9:56Patrick Bet-David?

  You know what I love about the, we asked questions we shouldn't have asked and some of you guys, you were brutally honest and we appreciate you for it. We did that intentionally. Adam's very thankful for all of you guys with the report. Love you guys. Because it was very thorough. But one of the topics was how much you guys love us talking about sports. And you want us to spend 80% doing sports instead of anything else. I said, I was thinking about it. I said, no, I don't want to do it because we don't want to embarrass all the other sports shows. We're gonna give them a pass. And we're gonna stick to the things that we're talking about it. But if you're somebody that wants to see the survey. Almost 16,000 of you ended up doing the survey. We're thankful for all of you.

• 10:32Patrick Bet-David?

  And by the way, those of you guys that activated the 25, I loved it. Some of the guys were like, I'm doing it right now. Gone. And guess what? We gave it. We have no problem with that. But if you want the survey results and you haven't gotten it yet, text the word PBD to 3103401132 and we will send you the survey right now. It's ready. Rob, can you show a clip? Can you just go to the survey and show what it looks like? Go a little bit lower. I mean, it explains everything. Our audience breakdown, percentage of Republicans, business owners. It's seven pages. We can pause it right there. So if you want to see the whole breakdown of the survey that was done, text the word PBD to 3103401132.

• 11:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Again, text the word PBD to 3103401132 to get the entire report. And those of you guys that haven't activated your $25 gift card, it's in your email from Shopify. You can get that activated. And if you have somebody that's served in the military, or if you are veteran yourself in the military, I was in the army, proud, 101st Airborne Division. Air assault, 63 Bravo Charlie with a Hotel Eight qualification. Uh, you know, great time at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, Fort Jackson. Uh, some great memories of me being in the military. Memorial Day is coming up next week, Rob. Is it two weeks from now? For those of you guys that want to sport, if you want to go to the site, army gear that says future looks bright on the bottom of it with VT.

• 11:57Patrick Bet-David?

  Or army shirt or marine or air force, or you have somebody in your family who watches the podcast, who believes the future looks bright, who has an optimistic personality, who believes things are going to fall in good place. Go to VTmerch.com, Rob. Let's put the link below for the veterans collection that you can go to. Pick yourself up. That's one of my favorite hats as well. That military, you see that camo hat with future looks bright? It's sick. If you're a vet, or if you have somebody in your family that's a vet, go to VTmerch.com, place your order, Vinny.

• 12:28Speaker 03

  The Memorial Day, I want people to understand is the most important day because it's not about the barbecues and everything. It's for all the men, women, brothers, sisters, fathers that laid down their life. As much as people want to talk crap about this country and judge us, the people that that lost their lives. God bless them. God bless their families because if it wasn't for them, you wouldn't be able to be here and complain and talk all the crap that you want to. If and you'd be probably speaking a different accent of a different country.

• 12:51Patrick Bet-David?

  And I will proudly, even though my kids don't have to join the military, if any one of them chose to join the military, I will personally proudly support them if they choose to go that route. Because America is the greatest country in the world that gave me an average guy to have the life that I have today. Without that safety, security from our military vets, we wouldn't have what we have today. So thank you for all the people that served as well, as well as your family members. So with that being said, let's get right into it. First story I want to get into. We got a lot of them to pick and choose from. Which one do we want to go with? Uh, let me see this one here. Rob, why don't we go into, why don't we go into the story when Mamdani and George, what happened with him and the sheriff? Let's pull up that clip. Let's start off with that first. So New York City.

• 13:33Patrick Bet-David?

  They call it, it used to be the greatest city in the world. Okay? And then all of a sudden this guy gets elected socialist, communist, Islamist, whatever you want to call him. It is what it is. But here's the captain, okay? New York City captain. He's out there, he's being asked a couple of questions about his mayor. And look what he says. And I will tell you what happens to this guy next because Mamdani wasn't too happy about this. Go ahead, Rob.

• 14:01Speaker 04

  Mayor, Mayor Zoran Mamdani, you're saying is a friend of him? You want a minute? He's your boss. He's a, you know, like temporary. He's your boss. Is he your boss though? Is he your boss?

• 14:13Patrick Bet-David?

  He's your boss. He's an embarrassment.

• 14:17Patrick Bet-David?

  He's what? He said embarrassment, embarrassment. You think your mayor is an embarrassment? Not my mayor. He's not my mayor.

• 14:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Call on camera.

• 14:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, so he makes those comments. Now you know the mayor sees it. Okay, is, is, is there, is there the exchange with him and the sheriff, Rob? Of him and the captain?

• 14:47Speaker 03

  No, I do have a news article or a news report from CBS News that talks about the fallout.

• 14:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Go for it. Go ahead.

• 14:54Speaker 04

  Captain James Wilson was front and center at a Bushwick protest on Saturday, where crowds gathered outside Wykoff Medical Center in an attempt to stop ICE agents from arresting an immigrant who was a patient there. But it's not his policing that is being called into question. It's the comments he

• 15:09Speaker 05

  about the mayor that were posted on social media.

• 15:18Speaker 05

  Wilson didn't limit his comments of the mayor. He also went after Democrats saying.

• 15:27Speaker 05

  And it is those comments that apparently led to a decision to remove him as second in command at the nine four precinct in Greenpoint. He was sent instead to work in a nine one one call center in the Bronx. When I asked the mayor about the transfer, he took pains to say it wasn't his decision. I saw the video. I did not, however, have any involvement in that decision, nor did my city hall. That was my understanding is a decision that was made in accordance with NYPD's administrative guidelines. The NYPD issuing a statement saying of the captain, quote, "His disciplinary process is ongoing. Department policy prohibits an officer while on duty from publicly expressing personal views regarding a political party."

• 16:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, so Vinnie, thoughts?

• 16:11Speaker 03

  Okay, well, by the way, he is an embarrassment. Show me where the guy is lying. Okay, the Democrat thing, you know, waste of human, whatever, whatever, you know how I feel about Democrats, but I thought these are the people screaming no kings. Every single five minutes, no kings, no king. Apparently, criticism is only allowed when it's aimed at conservatives, okay? But this is the problem with Democrats. They preach tolerance until somebody disagrees with them, and then the punishment starts. And by the way, he's being demoted. There goes his pain. He's going to be out of the Bronx now. He's going to have to, you know, the commute or whatever he has to do. But let's stop pretending. I don't believe Mamdani at all, period. Let's stop pretending like he gives a damn about law enforcement. He's built his entire, if you go back and watch all of his clips, trashing cops, defunding

• 16:53Speaker 03

  the police, pushing anti-police rhetoric. Crime is up, and I'm going to give you some stats. Remember, guys, a couple of months ago, a knife wielding psycho is about to stab somebody in an apartment. A cop comes in, he's rushing the cop, shoots the guy, the cop gets stabbed. Guess who Mamdani goes and visits in the hospital? The knife guy, not the cop, okay? And like, I'm done with all this nonsense, Pat. Let's just, all the focus, oh, I don't know, of Of course it went to him. Of course he saw it. It's all about optics. And let's just throw this out there. New York Police NYPD crime transmit data over the last year in transit. Ready for this? Robbery's up 18%. Murders are up 300% and misdemeanor assault is up 15%.

• 17:35Speaker 03

  Okay, this is politicians, when your time is is spent just attacking cops and not backing them, that's what happens and I don't believe them at all.

• 17:43Tom Ellsworth?

  But the subway is really, really dangerous.

• 17:45Speaker 03

  300% murders.

• 17:46Patrick Bet-David?

  But here's what you get, Tom. I'm gonna come to you. In return for that, as much as you're upset, Vinny, imagine having the luxury and the privilege of driving through George Washington Bridge and knowing you're learning how to weave and weave and bop through these, you know, these

• 18:03Speaker 03

  Obstacles?

• 18:03Patrick Bet-David?

  These obstacles. Because it's like playing Mario Kart on the freeway.

• 18:07Speaker 03

  Which I love.

• 18:08Patrick Bet-David?

  In New York City. It's a great video game. Rob, can you please play this highlight of not Super Mario Kart? This is actually George Washington Bridge, folks. Go ahead. Look at this. You're driving, boom!

• 18:19Speaker 03

  Dude!

• 18:19Patrick Bet-David?

  But you gotta be fast. But you gotta be fast, Vinny.

• 18:22Speaker 03

  He obviously doesn't play Mario.

• 18:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Watch it one more time, folks. I mean, this is like, boom! You know? Like, imagine if that happens to you. You're with your wife and kids and you're going to a nice dinner together. It's exciting, right? It's exciting having a mayor that takes care of the streets and, you know, and you get that in return because we should give more free program.

• 18:41Speaker 03

  You're right.

• 18:41Patrick Bet-David?

  Not fix the roads, not get the construction permits to come out fast. Take your time with the construction permits. Tom, your thoughts on Mam Donnie's situation, what he did to the captain?

• 18:52Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, I have about three thoughts. The first thought is, look, no cop in any city should talk like that. You know, you shouldn't. And by the way, it doesn't matter whether you're conservative or liberal. If you say, hey, the other side is a waste of a human race, you can expect to get demoted and fired. It's gonna happen if you're conservative. It's gonna happen if you're liberal. Now... That's just trying to level set. Everybody's gonna yell at me. And I said, no, that's true. It doesn't, either side you're on. However, I hate that the situation in New York is exactly what you're talking about, that led the cop to feel that way.

• 19:29Speaker 03

  Exactly.

• 19:30Tom Ellsworth?

  He's sitting there trying to defend the city and try to serve people and everything. And he sits there and saying, under what leadership am I doing this? Or does the leadership even have my back? Does the leadership even care about the people and what's going on? But when you say you're the waste of the human race.

• 19:45Speaker 03

  That's too far. I get that.

• 19:46Tom Ellsworth?

  That's, that's too far. But all the cop wants to do is serve. All he wants to do is do it. And the other part of it is, man, you are always recorded and you gotta be so careful because you could be baited, baited, baited, baited. What do you think? What do you think? Those guys with the camera were being very, very, very persistent, very, very focused. And I just, I don't like what's going on. And by the way, the infrastructure, this has been going on for a while.

• 20:11Speaker 03

  Yeah, but.

• 20:11Tom Ellsworth?

  This has been this danger that's in the infrastructure has been going on for a while. When you strip out the funding for this stuff and you allow fraud, waste and abuse, like we've seen in North Carolina now is worried, like we're seeing in Texas with hospices. It's everywhere, you know? Get yourself a government-funded entity, steal the money, filter some of it back to your favorite campaign, allegedly. There you go. And the bridge doesn't get fixed because you have all the fraud. So I feel for this cop, but you can't say that.

• 20:42Speaker 03

  And Tom, just, I want to reiterate, murder is up in the transit report 300%. Pat, there's a video up. We can't even show it, Rob. Some African-American dude pushed a 75-year-old teacher down the freaking subway thing. He just, it was like two days ago. And he's smiling in court. He was like a.

• 20:58Patrick Bet-David?

  And that's an hour after he was released for a prior offense.

• 21:01Speaker 03

  From not, from being a nut job.

• 21:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, an hour after. So it's not like it was a thing where he just did, and he went in.

• 21:07Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 21:08Patrick Bet-David?

  You see this man is just walking down and he just pushes him and the guy dies.

• 21:11Speaker 03

  Dies.

• 21:12Patrick Bet-David?

  76 years old. Oh, you haven't seen this clip?

• 21:13Speaker 03

  Oh, it's horrible. I don't.

• 21:14Patrick Bet-David?

  I don't want to, I don't want to show the clip, but I'm gonna show you the clip, Adam, and I want you to see it. Okay? I want you to see it, okay?

• 21:21Speaker 03

  His name is, uh, Ramel Burke shoved an elderly teacher.

• 21:24Patrick Bet-David?

  Did you see it?

• 21:25Speaker 03

  Ross Palzone.

• 21:26Tom Ellsworth?

  Down the whole stairs.

• 21:27Speaker 03

  Dead.

• 21:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Dead. Who did that to him? Okay, let me read that to you. I have his family if you want to hear. From his family as well. Let me read this and then if you can pull up, this is in New York City, by the way. We repeat offender who had already been arrested several times this year, including for two assaults, killed an elderly man in an unprovoked attack in New York City. Hours before the attack, the NYPD had taken Ramal, Ramel Burke to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation after he was reportedly acting irrationally on a Penn Station platform mysteriously. He was released just one hour later, just of, and then a few hours later, Burke, the same guy that was arrested and released, shoved 76-year-old Ross Falzoni, a retired teacher, to his death down the subway in Manhattan.

• 22:10Patrick Bet-David?

  Burke was arrested three times in February for assaulting a police officer. Weird. Burglary and resisting arrest. In April, he was arrested again for assaulting a stranger. He was later granted supervised release at the arraignment. Rob, is that, do you have a video from the family?

  He wouldn't hurt anybody. He's a bag of bones. He's not even 100 pounds. Donna Falzone just celebrated her birthday in Manhattan with her brother Ross Falzone and was planning another trip to visit him from Pennsylvania when she got some horrifying news. I mean, to get a call like that at 4 o'clock in the morning, you know, just, you know, to find out your brother's minding his own business, three witnesses and pushed down the steps and left for dead. There's, there's not a amount of anger that we can express and shock. Police have arrested a man they say is responsible for shoving the 76-year-old man from the street down these stairs that lead to the 18th Street subway station in Chelsea.

• 25:08Speaker 04

  Police say the unprovoked attack happened around 9:30 Thursday night. Falzone was rushed to Bellevue Hospital with a traumatic brain injury, fractured spine and rib. Medics couldn't save him. Just a caring and giving man gave everything to his family and he just, everything. Eyewitness news has learned the suspect was in custody hours before the attack. At 3:28 PM, officers saw him acting erratically outside the 17th precinct. At 3:39, they took him to Bellevue Hospital.

• 25:38Patrick Bet-David?

  This is New York City for you, by the way. Okay? And what happens? Criminals are dropped? Oh, it's okay. He's, listen, leave him alone. What did the captain say? What did he say? But this guy, come on, this is just a nice, he just had a rough day. A few hours later, he kills a 76 year old. But my God, the captain. Now, of course, I agree with Tom. There are certain things like if there's a, if you go to dinner with us with the family. And I will tell the kids, I swear to God, if you ever use that word that your friend used. We're gonna have a problem together. Cause you have to choose the words you use. So I'm with it. I'm Tom and I are on the same page here. There are certain responsibilities you have as a leader. But this is words hurt somebody's feelings.

• 26:23Patrick Bet-David?

  This is a criminal killed someone.

• 26:28Patrick Bet-David?

  Let's, let's side with this guy, not this guy. This guy bad. This guy, let's feel sorry for him. Tell me the common sense, by the way, before I come to you, Adam, let me read the steward. New York City's declining. Public schools enrollment projected to lose over 150,000 more. As population declines, okay, here's what we're looking at as population declines. Uh, let me see this here. All right, let's go here. Let me read this to you, you ready? New York City public school are projected to drop mirroring the downward trend of its overall population since last year. According to a statistical forecasting prepared for the New York City School Construction Authority.

• 27:08Patrick Bet-David?

  New York City is projected to lose thousands of students in the 2034 to 2035 school. Enrollment is projected to be 721 in 2034, 2035. Which will be a decline of 153,000 students from the 2024, 2025 enrollment. The outlet reported over the next 10 years, the enrollments are projected to decline in each of the five boroughs, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx. Uh, and projected to have the largest declines in the next 10 years, losing 45, 43, 40, 35,000 respectively. The projected shortfall was attributed to continuing falling birth rates and exodus of residents. And aging population statistical forecasting was retained by the New York City School Construction Authority, SCA,

• 27:48Patrick Bet-David?

  to perform enrollment projections for the New York City Public Schools 10 year program that they have in place. By the way, New York Times reported on Friday that the number of kindergarten through 12 Great public school students in US has declined in thirty states since the mid twenties. New York City's public school lost twenty-two thousand students this year from last year's nine oh six. According to preliminary Department of Education data, a total of eighty-eight eighty-four students were enrolled. So you're you're seeing that happening here. People are not feeling safe and keep in mind, this guy financially is vested for New York City to win. Selfishly, I want New York City to win. In every possible way, I want New York City to win. Why Yankees?

• 28:30Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, I mean, you got Marcelo killing it on SNL, right? You know, Adams, you're bragging about Marcelo. Look what he did. Look at this, look at that, look at this, and they're now he's becoming a main guy. You want to see New York City shine. You want to see New York City be a place that families want to come visit. You want to see, guess what? What? Guess where they're holding the World Cup championship game? Not in Kansas, not in Washington, not not in Texas. You know where they're holding the finals game? What city you think they're holding?

• 28:57Adam Sosnick?

  LA.

• 28:57Patrick Bet-David?

  New York City at the Jet Stadium. And by the way, we knew that before anybody else knew about it. If you remember when we were at the

• 29:04Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, of course.

• 29:04Patrick Bet-David?

  President Clinton at that bowling thing and then we went to the so we knew that, but funny story there. But going back to New York City, Adam, your thoughts?

• 29:13Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, well, I think it's bigger than New York City. Here's what I think is really going on. Uh, we're we're we're used to all these big, blue cities that have been historically their greatest cities in America. New York City, LA, San Francisco, Chicago. Chicago was known as second city. Uh, and they're just not that city anymore. And and what's the common theme? They're all run by Democrats. Democrats have a stranglehold, uh, in all these big, blue cities. And you know what happens? You know, I the Democratic Party, that I don't recognize the party. They're no longer the party of FDR, JFK, of Bill Clinton. And for the last couple of decades, they've been flirting, flirting with all these isms. Socialism, communism, transgenderism, Islamism.

• 29:58Adam Sosnick?

  And the new woke left has combined them all, put them in a basket and says, this is who we are now. And I looking back at it, you could say it started with Obama, but Obama carried it himself so. Like a diplomat, he almost like, he made it appear that he wasn't as radical as he is. Now we're hearing meetings of him meeting with Soros and all these types of people. But the democratic establishment is no longer what it was. And it's sad to see. And now you have the Maldonys of the world and the Gavin Newsom's of the world and the Karen Bass's of the world, the AOC's of the world and the Ilhan Omar's of the world. And that is the new face of the Democratic Party. And the one guy within the Democratic Party who's basically saying, guys, what are we doing?

• 30:39Adam Sosnick?

  Is John Fetterman, and you can easily make the joke of like, of course, the one guy with brain damage has the most sense. But that's really what's going on here. And they're so obsessed with race. They're so antithetical to what MLK stood for. And at the end of the day, if you want to go like, go, go, go there. They, they want to completely fundamentally transform what America is and Western civilization. And last part, if you look what happened in the UK this week, the Reform Party by Nigel Farage, walloped everything that was going on there. All the wokeness, all the Keir Starmer, everything that was going on, all the migration. And the UK said, we've had enough. My question is, did it happen too late for them?

• 31:20Adam Sosnick?

  Cause I sure as hell don't think it's too late for America to come to a consensus and eliminate this nonsense.

• 31:25Speaker 03

  But New York, just in general, in general, they have their priorities crooked, completely crooked. And when you say defund the police, when you go visit the attacker, a knife wielding attacker, Adam, think about it. You're a cop, you're laying in the hospital, same hospital. And the mayor is visiting the guy that stabbed you, literally, literally. How are you supposed to feel? And I agree with you guys 100%. You can't, you can't lump them. It's like Hillary's, you know, basket of deplorables. You can't say that. Democrats, I already said, they've been captured by something that's, it's unrecognizable. They don't have no leaders, they have no nothing and they don't have God. Not one of them I've ever heard praise God or talk about Jesus Christ. I'm not, I'm not judging them. I'm just saying, is there one of you out there? Zero, zero. And when you keep saying, I hate cops, defund cops, get rid of the cops.

• 32:09Speaker 03

  And then you have a cop going, yeah, I don't like the guy because he doesn't care about me. He's taking money away from me. That's the attitude that you're gonna get.

• 32:17Patrick Bet-David?

  And by the way, Keir Starmer, Rob, Humberto sent this great chart, if you want to pull it up from Calci. Man, Calci's just doing such a great job. Like it's becoming the place to go.

• 32:26Speaker 03

  They're awesome.

• 32:27Patrick Bet-David?

  As a predictive place, $7 million. Uh, do you have the one with Keir Starmer, Rob? There's one with Keir Starmer showing. The likelihood of him being out, okay? And what is it right now, Rob? Before September 1st is now 59%. Is it 59? 59%? Correct. Before July 1st, 37%. And before June 1st, it's 16%. So, you know, obviously with Adam talking about what happened with UK, whether it's late or not, we don't know. We do know progress is being made. Tom, go for it.

• 32:57Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah, you know, we were talking about in New York City schools, world's top number scream. How about some numbers?

• 33:02Speaker 03

  Go.

• 33:02Tom Ellsworth?

  Here we go. But you don't have to add anything up, Vinny.

• 33:04Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 33:05Tom Ellsworth?

  I'm just gonna ask you what you think about it.

• 33:06Speaker 03

  Go.

• 33:06Tom Ellsworth?

  Because there's less students at the school, would there be more or less tax dollars flowing to them?

• 33:12Speaker 03

  Less tax dollars.

• 33:13Tom Ellsworth?

  Eh, wrong. New York has decided.

• 33:16Speaker 03

  There's less students.

• 33:17Tom Ellsworth?

  So, guess, that doesn't matter.

• 33:19Speaker 03

  Doesn't matter.

• 33:20Tom Ellsworth?

  In most school districts, the amount, the.

• 33:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Sets you up every, but even, even now.

• 33:24Speaker 03

  I, my head hurts.

• 33:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Give him one time.

• 33:26Speaker 03

  He leads you word, then he found you.

• 33:27Tom Ellsworth?

  Here we go, here we go, here we go. In most school districts, what is the amount of tax dollars that are available from the population usually matches the number of kids? Kids are part of the population. So, the amount of tax dollars per child to fund the school is usually how it goes. In New York, they have gone from 31,100 per student five years ago to 42,000 a student now spending, which is higher than the national average. So, guess what, Pat? You ready for this?

• 33:54Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm.

• 33:54Tom Ellsworth?

  They have not reduced the amount of spending on New York City schools, even though the number of kids are going down. Wait a minute, more spending per child. That must mean the grades are up. The teachers have more time to spend with fewer students. There's fewer students, they get more teacher attention. Let's go look. Here we go. Uh-oh, uh-oh, oh, no. High school graduation rate is at a 20-year low and had a two-point drop from the previous year. It's gone down further. Now, it's barely 81% of kids will graduate in New York City. Think about that, Pat. One in five kids in New York City will drop out? Boom, take it on the lam. Now then, but they said, wait, there's better scores for grades three per eight. Time out a minute.

• 34:38Tom Ellsworth?

  How is it possible there's better test scores for grades three through eight? But when they go from grade eight to 12, there's more of them dropping out? And it's 81%, 20-year low. Why is all that? Oh, the state of New York, from Empire Center data, reduce the standards for the test.

• 34:55Patrick Bet-David?

  To make the test look better. Ladies and gentlemen, New York City education. Wow, is that not embarrassing when you look at that? Is that not embarrassing when you look at that with the data on? You know what's the worst is when you do when the data is not on your side specifically in anything you do. When the number is not on your side, you're not happy. Let me get to this next story here. Aside from New York City that we got going on. Next story I want to get to is another guy on the complete opposite side. Okay, on the complete opposite side, there's this guy named Gavin Newsom. Who's trying to sell you cheap diapers. But try to find it in a allegedly try to do it in a way that it benefits his wife. And he's kind of like, you know, kind of this little. A quagmire. I don't know how to what what's the proper word to use here that he's. Quagmire?

• 35:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's he's he's kind of, you know, and so he's trying to kind of maneuver. He's trying to, what's the word? Well, you know. Dance? Nah, I don't know if it's. Spin? We can use dance. Turn himself into a pretzel to try to basically fix this thing up. Rob, do you have a clip on this on these diapers? Ricky Bobby shake and bake? Yeah, shake and bake. That's the better one. I like that. Shake and bake. So here's. Here's the shake and bake master. Shake and bake. From California, who is the current governor. He's hoping to become the president, your president. He's hoping to become your president here very soon. Rob, go ahead and play this clip.

• 36:11Speaker 00

  I was so inspired when I was reading about these two remarkable people. You see behind me.

• 36:17Patrick Bet-David?

  Rob, tell me he gets right into it because it's two minutes and 48 seconds. He does the better.

• 36:22Tom Ellsworth?

  By the way, he said he was reading. I thought he was dyslexic.

• 36:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Good point, Tommy. Very good point, Tommy. Do you want to play this one? Why don't you play the Steve Hilton clip first? Go for it. So Gavin Newsom is taking $20 billion of your money to send 100,000 babies 400 diapers. That works out at 50 cents per diaper. We just came into Target to check out what you could buy it for in the store. Here you go. Just check this one out here. 162, $26. That works out at 16 cents per diaper. Gavin Newsom's diapers are three times more expensive. Why is that, Steve Hilton? Why is it three times more expensive for Gavin Newsom to send diapers to 100,000 babies than just leaving the money? In the bank accounts of the parents in the first place because. We want to know. He's going to some total bullshit nonprofit, which cronies of his are going to make money. And that is what is wrong with California.

• 37:07Patrick Bet-David?

  Instead of just cutting taxes so you can afford diapers and sending it out in this ridiculous bureaucratic scheme. Vinny, what else do we know about these diapers? Who's benefiting from this?

• 37:16Speaker 03

  Well, uh, thank you for asking, Pat. So like you said, 100,000 babies, 400 diapers. How about this? Just cut the taxes. Send people the money directly. Like, don't play this nonsense. IRS filings show Jennifer Siebel Newsom paid herself and her company-

• 37:32Tom Ellsworth?

  Oh no, the first lady of California?

• 37:33Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's her, Tom. The pro-abortion cutting people, loving to kill babies. She paid herself and her company 3.9 million from her so-called gender justice charity. About 1.8 million went to her salary and another 2.1 million went to her profit film company making documentaries pushing into California public schools. And by the way, honestly, Tom, is anyone surprised? Are you, are you, are any of you at home listening to this surprised? It's Gavin Newsom. It's like being shocked that a raccoon stole your garbage. That's what he's supposed to do. That's what they're supposed to do. All right? And everybody, it's just, Pat, he just exudes this fake identity, okay? And it's just driving me crazy because that's the model.

• 38:17Speaker 03

  Everything is optics, everything is branding, everything sounds compassionate until you follow the money. And when you follow the money and they act like they care, it's cheaper at Costco. They're BSing you and it always comes out and it's always angry and it's always Trump and it's always Trump. No wonder why California is failing. No wonder why.

• 38:35Tom Ellsworth?

  And by the way, the guy that runs that is also a donor. So the money goes to him and then we look at his federal FEC filings, Federal Election Committee. And to see where he filed, he was actually donating to the Newsom campaign, donating lots of money to Dems. And it's like, what? So this is the circle of life. This is the same thing we've been hearing about. And diapers, I love that Steve Hilton walked into a regular Target to just point out, here's the price right here. Because words talk, numbers scream, and I love that they put that number in front of them. You know, it's, it's interesting, as I was a dad, a brand new dad once, and buying diapers was difficult. So I walked down the aisle and there, there's one diaper, Pax said, up to 12 pounds. I got home and then Kim said, no, no, no, that's the weight of the child. I'm like, gosh, I only need a couple of those. We got all summer covered.

• 39:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Well, Adam.

• 39:21Adam Sosnick?

  Look, we can go on and on what's going on in New York City. We can go on and on what's going on in California. Right now, it's working to an extent. Why? Because they have the greatest distraction that any super liberal person could possibly ask for, or a super liberal governor could ask for. And what's that distraction? It's Trump. While Trump is there, they always can double down on, but Trump, he's a fascist, he's a king, he's this. They're always gonna have that excuse. My question is, what's gonna happen to these states when they no longer have the Trump scapegoat? When Trump is no longer here, and we all, I think, agree for the most part, Trump is doing a great job in his second term,

• 40:03Adam Sosnick?

  certainly better than his first. What's gonna happen to these big, blue liberal cities when they no longer have Trump to blame? So, it kinda, in a weird way, not to go off topic, reminds me of what a lot of the Middle Eastern autocrats and dictators in Iran do regarding Israel. Don't worry about what we're doing to our own people. Don't worry about our terrorism. Don't worry about everything that we're doing wrong, subjugating our own people, but Israel. It's a great excuse. Unfortunately, it's kind of like with the Abraham Accords, it's sort of being subdued a little bit in the Middle East. Now you have a lot of people basically being like, well, it's kind of really Iran that's the problem. At the end of the day, when Trump leaves office, these big, blue cities are gonna have to take a long, hard look in the mirrors, especially at people and be like,

• 40:48Adam Sosnick?

  it's not even Trump anymore. It's our leadership. And the question is, are they gonna hold him accountable? And vote in people who are gonna go against the grain. That's why everybody's rooting for people like Steve Hilton, for people like Spencer Pratt, because they're not the typical leftist stooges that are just gonna go along with what they've always done.

• 41:06Speaker 03

  But think about it. If they win, they're good. But whoever wins on the Republican side, they're gonna tie them to Trump. If it's Rubio or Vance or one of the top, you know what they're gonna say? Oh, he's such a Trump, Trump.

• 41:16Adam Sosnick?

  Sure. And by the way, that'll work to a certain.

• 41:18Patrick Bet-David?

  Now, watch this. When he's asked about the leading candidate for governor in California, this is, this is his reaction, Rob. Can you play this? Go for it.

I just haven't focused on that. I think I'm gonna see Speaker Pelosi though shortly. Maybe she'll, she'll fill me in on an update on the race. We'll be at uh.

• 43:56Patrick Bet-David?

  It's kinda weird, right?

• 43:57Speaker 03

  His relative.

• 43:57Adam Sosnick?

  It's like he's mumbling at a cocktail party.

• 43:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, he's kinda weird. It's a basic question. Do you endorse the guy or not? So maybe they're holding it off to do that at a big event and all this other stuff. To have a spectacle and different kind of a showing, but while this is going on in California, there's a guy again, Spencer Pratt. Rock star, right? Rock star doing great things and his, his focus is like, look, this isn't about Republican and Democratic policies. It's just common sense. I want to clean up the streets of LA. That's what he wants to do, right? And so he's out there being asked questions about the comparison of him and Mamdani. So the guy on the bottom actually asked a good question. A lot of people compare you and Mamdani because both of you guys are not politically, not ideology, but you guys are very good on camera, social media, and Pratt's answer was phenomenal. Go ahead, Rob.

• 44:43Patrick Bet-David?

  Zohar Mamdani, in the sense, I mean, your politics are obviously very, very, very different, but in the sense that you've really harnessed the power of social media to get your message out. What do you think of that comparison?

• 44:54Tom Ellsworth?

  You know, the one thing I connect with is I know he promised his voters, like the subway will be free. And I'm promising my voters, the metros, the metro buses, the metro trains, they will be free from urine, feces, stabbing, attacks. So that's kind of similar. We both have three things for public transportation. You know, I think he connected with people because they felt like change. They wanted change. That message would never connect here because we've already been doing the socialist experiment pretty much for six plus years and it's failed here in Los Angeles. So I think my message is why it's resonating on social media is it's the truth.

• 45:35Tom Ellsworth?

  It's authentic. It's from my heart. I didn't want to be a politician. I'm standing in what happened because of failed politicians. That's why I'm here. I don't want to be, I want to go in and change LA.

• 45:47Patrick Bet-David?

  Where he's asked also, and then Adam, I'm gonna come to you, the clip where he's asked about, you know, 20 years ago, is this it? Guys, you have this? He has a lot of moments, okay? And by the way, if you go watch some of his old clips, he was used to being in fights all the time on camera. So he's accustomed to the market, talking smack about him. I can't believe he's a jerk, he's a this, he's a that. He's used to being a poker, right? He's used to being a poker and used to challenging others. But watch this situation where the lady's trying to ask a question saying, "Just 20 years ago, Spencer Pratt, you were A." And watch his answer. Go ahead, Rob.

• 46:23Speaker 04

  What do you think? You know, you're known as a reality TV star. Do you think that that is, in your campaign for Los Angeles mayor, to run the biggest city in California, is that a label that you embrace? Is that hurtful to your campaign? Or does it help, you think? I mean, the reality, pun intended, is that was from 20 years ago. And if we look at what Karen Bass was doing 20 years ago, she was in Cuba, learning how to make bombs with the people that would then go bomb Capitol Hill. So if we're looking at backgrounds, I'm pretty proud of what I was doing at 20 on reality television, even though it was

• 47:00Patrick Bet-David?

  Go back five seconds. Just look at her smile. Tell me if you recognize, pause it, pause it, pause it. Just look at her lips and tell me if you recognize that smile and what that smile... Can you zoom in on her smile, please? Rob, are we able to do that or no?

• 47:14Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, hold on.

• 47:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, man, if you can zoom in on that smile, Rob is a magician. He's gonna find a way... Can you zoom in on the video?

• 47:23Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, the video.

• 47:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh, you can do it. Okay, just watch it. Watch it, go ahead, Rob, go ahead.

• 47:27Speaker 04

  I'm pretty proud of what I was doing at 20 on reality television, even though it was, you know, I may not have been the most likable character. It was still TV versus trying to destroy America, going to Cuba 20 times and praising Fidel Castro.

• 47:41Patrick Bet-David?

  She didn't like that answer.

• 47:42Speaker 04

  Against my opponent, my background's pretty strong.

• 47:44Patrick Bet-David?

  At least that beautiful blouse got a lot of recognition because it's actually nice. It's a nice blue and white that you have there. But, you know, it's a great point, right? What he's sitting there saying, 20 years ago, I'm on reality TV. The other one was making bombs, learning how to make bombs in Cuba. Big difference. Adam, thoughts?

• 47:59Adam Sosnick?

  Well, look, uh... Do you have that attack ad that the Democrat establishment put out on Spencer Pratt? I think this sort of sums up exactly what's going on.

• 48:09Patrick Bet-David?

  He said he will never go back and do anything with CBS. I don't know if you saw his beef with CBS.

• 48:13Adam Sosnick?

  I'm talking about a labor ad.

• 48:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, I know, I know, I know both of them. But this week, they've been trying to attack him in a big way.

• 48:19Adam Sosnick?

  Ultimately, and I'll just set it up for this.

• 48:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you have that, Rob?

• 48:22Adam Sosnick?

  Everything that he's saying is complete common sense. Where, you know, he basically said, you know, he wants to give everything free, Mom, Donnie, free groceries, free buses. I want free as well. Free of stabbing, free of, free of homelessness. Look at this attack ad where they try to paint him as some MAGA extremist when every single thing is just absolute common sense. Go ahead, check this out.

• 48:42Tom Ellsworth?

  Republican Spencer Pratt is the last thing Los Angeles needs for mayor. Pratt opposes using taxpayer money to build brand-new houses for unhoused neighbors, saying it's time for the homeless to get help or get out. Pratt thinks LA needs thousands more police officers rather than more social workers, and Republican Spencer Pratt thinks public employee unions should have less power, not more. LA is on the right track and needs to stay the course. Vote no on Republican Spencer Pratt.

• 49:10Adam Sosnick?

  Does anybody think that LA is on the right track? Let's just be real here. Let's just be unbiased. It's unbelievable. You see what's going on, you know, you talk, words talk, numbers scream. Rob, do you have the voting with their feet picture that I sent you? Because we've seen this before. Nobody is moving to California, very hardly. Here's the numbers. You've talked about words talk, numbers scream, voting with your feet and your pocketbook. Look at these numbers right here. All the money, it says B, but that's really trillion, $2 trillion in wealth has gone to Florida, Texas, Arizona, and the Carolinas, where he has almost $2 trillion of wealth that has left. If you scroll down to the bottom right, left the big three woke states, which is California, New York, and Illinois. All Spencer Pratt is doing is be completely normal.

• 49:53Adam Sosnick?

  And then the establishment wants to attack him and say, this guy defends the police. What's wrong with him? This guy thinks unions are too strong. Insane. This guy wants to treat our unhoused neighbors as if they're creating problems. He wants to clean up the city and they're villainizing. We're rooting for Spencer.

• 50:12Speaker 03

  And, and Pat, this reminds me of, uh, in the movie Dune, where the, the son is like questioning if he wants to be, you know, he step up into the role and the father Duke tells his son Timothy Chomlet, his name is, Shamilat, Shamilalat, whatever. He says, "A great man doesn't seek to lead. He's called to it and he answers." And I think that's what's happening with Spencer Pratt. Right now, he, he's watching his city that he loves, get destroyed with fake leadership, corruption, crime, homelessness and incompetence to the point where regular people, not these fake Gavin Newsom cutout, carbon copy, fake, disingenuous and disgusting human beings. He says, "Somebody has to step up and we have to do it." And he has to do it. And that's what it is.

• 50:56Speaker 03

  You don't, you don't try to be this leader, Pat. Sometimes you're called to it and you gotta step up. And I think he's doing it.

• 51:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Who's this guy? What's he saying here, Rob?

• 51:03Tom Ellsworth?

  This is, so Spencer Pratt filmed like an hour and a half, uh, interview with CBS.

• 51:07Patrick Bet-David?

  This is CBS, yeah.

• 51:08Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah, where they took the footage and according to Spencer Pratt, CBS gave that footage to the campaign of Karen Bass, that Karen Bass's campaign then used to chop up and create a negative attack ad attacking Spencer Pratt.

• 51:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Go for it. Go ahead, Rob.

• 51:22Speaker 02

  After CBS embarrassed Karen Bass by fact checking her debate lies about the Palisades fire, they clearly got the call. CBS filmed with me on my burnt outlaw for over an hour talking about crime, housing, affordability, things that voters care about. And they turned it over to Karen Bass's PR team to edit it into a comical five-minute hit piece with clips from the hills. They can't beat my ideas. They can't beat me in the debates. So they gotta try to turn my campaign into a sideshow. People are done with these skeezy political tricks. And I'm done with CBS. They should release a full, unedited video. Voters deserve to hear from their next mayor.

• 52:01Patrick Bet-David?

  There you go. Yeah, CBS, this is a different CBS for them to do. Yeah. So there you go. Listen, uh, uh, for those of you guys that are in LA and you wanna see a change, whatever you do, this is the part where it's not just talking. Go help. Go knock on doors. You want things to change? It's gonna require everybody's effort. Go talk to people. Go support them. If you wanna see somebody like this come in instead of a Karen Bass, this is the part that people in LA, if you want change, you gotta do your part. There's only so much he can do. There's only so much everybody else can do. Individually, people gotta go out there.

• 52:36Patrick Bet-David?

  Knocking on doors, talking to people and getting them to say, why don't we just give this guy a chance one time? Why don't we just give this guy a chance one time and see what happens? Adam?

• 52:46Adam Sosnick?

  Just add one little addition. What they did was they put out a four-minute highlight reel, sort of endorsing Karen Bass, essentially what it was. He called them out on their BS, and then 24 hours later, they released the entire 28-minute interview. Some say it's a little too late, too little too late, but these are the little tricks of what's going on there to try to basically keep the Democratic-

• 53:07Patrick Bet-David?

  And this is how long left? Three weeks left? June 2nd it is, right? Unless it goes on a runoff till what? November or something like that, Tom?

• 53:13Tom Ellsworth?

  Yep. Top two will go on a runoff in the November election, the same time they're electing a governor, unless someone on June 2nd gets 50.001.

• 53:23Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, exactly. I don't know if you pull up the-

• 53:24Patrick Bet-David?

  That's why they're saying she's gotta drop out. Democrats are begging the socialists to drop out, and she hasn't yet.

• 53:30Tom Ellsworth?

  And there's allegations, and if you read on Reddit, you can find these. These were not in mainstream media, but what's being floated and discussed on Reddit is that they are offering, allegedly, there are forces offering Nithya Ram and say, hey, look, we'll pay you, we'll give you this money, and then you can go take care of your donors, go next time, but get out of the way.

• 53:49Adam Sosnick?

  She'll probably do it. I don't know if you-

• 53:52Tom Ellsworth?

  So if that happens, but if that happens, remember that, you know what that means? It means the rumors and stuff that are on Reddit and other places, some of those rumors are true, if that's what happens.

• 54:00Patrick Bet-David?

  I agree.

• 54:01Tom Ellsworth?

  And that would kill me.

• 54:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you think those rumors are true?

• 54:03Tom Ellsworth?

  Look, what they did to Bernie Sanders and-

• 54:05Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you think those rumors are true?

• 54:06Tom Ellsworth?

  I, do I think those conversations are being had?

• 54:09Patrick Bet-David?

  For sure.

• 54:09Tom Ellsworth?

  Damn straight they're being had.

• 54:10Patrick Bet-David?

  Of course they are, yeah. Go ahead.

• 54:12Adam Sosnick?

  They didn't have him in New York. We know what happened with that situation.

• 54:14Tom Ellsworth?

  They had him in South Carolina with Hillary Clinton, and Bernie wouldn't move, so they screwed him.

• 54:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, that's right.

• 54:20Adam Sosnick?

  If you could just go to the Kalshi thing, I know it's not, it's not exactly, it's more odds than, than, but she's at 48%.

• 54:28Tom Ellsworth?

  Down from 51 over the past weekend.

• 54:30Adam Sosnick?

  So just break down what this is real quick.

• 54:31Patrick Bet-David?

  But that's 17, Tom. That 17 goes to her, not to him.

• 54:37Speaker 03

  More than likely, yes.

• 54:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Eighty percent of seventeen goes to her, not to him.

• 54:40Adam Sosnick?

  This is the up and down of Spencer Pratt.

• 54:42Tom Ellsworth?

  Probably ninety-five percent.

• 54:43Patrick Bet-David?

  I agree.

• 54:44Tom Ellsworth?

  She's the freak.

• 54:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Crazy.

• 54:45Speaker 03

  Can I ask a question? What is the Karen Basque pitch? What are they running on? What is she saying for people to go, you know what? I'm on board. Your resume is abysmal. What the hell? How is it just that brainwash of following Democrats?

• 55:00Adam Sosnick?

  Identity politics.

• 55:01Speaker 03

  That's insane.

• 55:01Adam Sosnick?

  And he's perceived as a white Republican man, even though it's not.

• 55:04Speaker 03

  Yeah, well, guess what? If that's your mentality, you gotta break your...

• 55:08Adam Sosnick?

  That is the modern left.

• 55:09Speaker 03

  It's insane.

• 55:10Adam Sosnick?

  That's what's going on here.

• 55:11Tom Ellsworth?

  Vinnie, Karen Basque is like, like, methyramin is like, regular coke. And Karen, socialism. And Karen Basque is, you know, diet coke.

• 55:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Not Basque, Tom.

• 55:22Speaker 03

  Basque.

• 55:22Tom Ellsworth?

  Basque, Basque.

• 55:23Adam Sosnick?

  Technically, according to Spencer Pratt, it's basura.

• 55:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 55:27Adam Sosnick?

  Which means gar.

• 55:28Speaker 03

  I just don't get it.

• 55:28Patrick Bet-David?

  So, look, I mean, if they keep continuing on double downing on these ridiculous policies of transgender, of this, of all the identity politics stuff, that's gonna benefit the right come the general election for presidency. Because those ideas may work in small pockets. They're not gonna work at the highest level. You have to find a way to go more independent, because independents are not with you. When Governor Wes Moore was here and we were speaking, out of everything that we talked about, you know what's the one clip that went viral?

• 56:02Speaker 03

  His, his, the trans stuff?

• 56:03Patrick Bet-David?

  It's me asking him, what would he do if his son came home and said, I wanna transition? And everybody started texting me and calling me, hey, can you come and comment on this? Do you wanna say anything about this? I'm like, okay, listen, that's his position, where he's at, but what's the point? He says, I'm not going to condemn him. He has to address this issue.

• 56:23Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 56:24Patrick Bet-David?

  Because this issue's not gonna get him the independent voters. Neither will it for Newsom.

• 56:28Speaker 03

  Right.

• 56:28Patrick Bet-David?

  Neither will it for Pritzker. Neither will it for a lot of these other guys. So if they continue, by the way, you know who Bob Costas is?

• 56:34Speaker 03

  Yeah, of course.

• 56:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Remember we saw Bob Costas at, we were at the Muhammad Ali Museum?

• 56:39Tom Ellsworth?

  That's right.

• 56:39Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, would you put him as a liberal or conservative?

• 56:41Speaker 03

  Liberal, hardcore liberal.

• 56:42Patrick Bet-David?

  How hardcore of a liberal is he?

• 56:44Tom Ellsworth?

  He's so hardcore that there is... There are stories of him getting into it with coworkers. There's a story with him that there was another, um, a Wall Street guy that lived in the same building. They ended up in a screaming match in a lobby. You dig deep enough, this guy is a hardcore liberal that has a big temper for, for a guy who's supposed on camera, looks very smooth.

• 57:07Patrick Bet-David?

  As hardcore as he is.

• 57:09Tom Ellsworth?

  He's also common sense.

• 57:10Patrick Bet-David?

  As hardcore as he is, which I agree with you, as hardcore as he is, this is the part that liberals simply don't want to touch. And watch what he says here, Rob, if you want to play this clip.

• 57:22Tom Ellsworth?

  I'm costing.

• 57:23Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh, this is on this girl's Trish Reagan's Instagram. Yeah, it's, uh, uh, who is she with, by the way?

• 57:30Tom Ellsworth?

  I think she's independent now.

• 57:31Patrick Bet-David?

  She's independent now, okay, she's very appealing to the eyes. So play this clip, go ahead, Rob. I think CNN expected this.

• 57:36Speaker 05

  Common sense is not transphobic. There's a reason why the high school champions don't compete with the college champions. There is a reason why no trans man, who was once a woman and has become a man, has ever competed successfully with men in the Olympics. If, if Katelyn Clark could play in the NBA, everybody would applaud it, that'd be an incredible thing. But if the last guy on the bench of an NBA team went to the WNBA and started averaging 40 points a game, everyone would know that is BS. There's a reason why Sugar Ray Leonard, who was a contemporary of Mike Tyson, didn't fight Mike Tyson. They were in different weight classes. There is a reason why there are men's and women's sports.

• 58:18Patrick Bet-David?

  That's an F-18 at 10 o'clock, we were warned it's gonna take off. You can pause it right there. Did you hear what he said?

• 58:24Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah.

• 58:24Patrick Bet-David?

  He's a leftist.

• 58:26Tom Ellsworth?

  Hardcore.

• 58:27Patrick Bet-David?

  Who is saying, what the hell are you guys thinking about with this transgender stuff? This just makes no, and by the way, he continues, he doesn't even slow down.

• 58:35Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah, right.

• 58:36Patrick Bet-David?

  But, but if these politicians choose to keep playing this role, guess what? Republicans, independents are gonna side with Republicans over Democrats on three issues that they don't want to mess with.

• 58:45Speaker 03

  And I'm so happy you brought up the transgender thing, especially with Wes Moore. Did you know this past week, number eight, the, the transgender guy in California, A.B. Hernandez, competed in the girls division and finished first place in multiple Long jump, he jumped 20, he jumped 20 feet while the closest female athlete was more than a foot behind him. He also won the triple jump, okay, but that's before Rob had it to save the girls, sports protesters were outside. Even Martina Navratilova, Pat, she's on the other side as well, she was blasting Gavin, okay, and, and along with Nancy Hock said. And Pat, if you just, just to show you guys- She's a lesbian, by the way. Martina Navratilova is a lesbian who is standing up against the transgender-

• 59:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, her and I went at it once on Twitter. Not, not in life. We went at it once on Twitter.

• 59:30Speaker 03

  Just really, she's not your type. Just really, really quick, guys, do you realize how many negative stories we have that we're probably not even gonna get into on California alone? Talking about the, the politicians openly talking about permanent wealth tax confiscations, taxpayer-funded diaper programs, biological males dominating girls' sports, San Francisco store allegedly are selling meth during a massive drug crisis, businesses, well, everybody's leaving. Everything about California is negative, Pat. Every single thing, and they have a chance right now with Spencer Pratt, you have a chance with Steve Hilton. Guys, please don't fall into the stupid mindset of, well, I'm loyal to my party. What the hell does that even mean? Wake up. Wake up.

• 1:00:14Adam Sosnick?

  As much as, you know, you're preaching to the choir here, I think what Pat said is probably the most important thing. This stuff does work locally or even in your state, but when you get to the next level in a, a general election, this is where it all crumbles. Like, if you remember what the most impactful ad was during the election, I think Charlie Kirk helped actually do this, rest in peace, Charlie, was when Trump said in that ad, he goes, Kamala's for they/them, Trump is for us. By the way, if you use a they/them ad in California, they're applauding a national electorate, they're basically booing, just understand your audience, right? So it, it works there, it doesn't work in the big scheme of things.

• 1:00:53Patrick Bet-David?

  And, and you know what this leads to? This leads to, until I go to the, I won't really go into the Costco story, but this leads to this. Who's the one person on the left I've been saying has a shot at 2028 running? AOC. AOC. Okay, so watch this. She does an interview. Okay, and there's a couple of things that comes up. One, Rob, if you can go to the one that she doesn't deny speculation of 2028 presidential run. She's no longer fighting it and even playing politics to say, "Well, no, not really. It's not for me. I just want to focus on New York City and the boroughs. This is what my focus is." This is what she had to say when she was asked about running for president. Go ahead, Rob.

And conditions change radically all the time. So I make my response less to an attachment to some positional, like, you know, title

• 1:04:22Speaker 04

  or position, and working backwards from there. But I make decisions by waking up in the morning, looking out the window, and observing the conditions of this country, and saying, what move or what decision can I make today that is going to get us closer to that future? Stronger, faster, better than yesterday.

• 1:04:44Speaker 03

  She dances around the question pretty much the entire three minutes.

• 1:04:48Patrick Bet-David?

  They assume, this is what she said, they assume that my ambition is a title or seat, and my ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, but single payer healthcare is forever. She continues, and she told Axelrod that she tailors her political ambitions to meet the moment. Conditions change radically all the time, so I make my response less to an attachment, personal title case. And what a movement, the decision that I'm going to get closer to that future, stronger, faster, better than yesterday. She continues. So she's hinting on what she's gonna happen. While she's doing this, there was a question that was, she was doing a podcast about being a billionaire. You know, do you remember that whole exchange with that one girl?

• 1:05:30Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah.

• 1:05:31Patrick Bet-David?

  Where they're both sitting there, not this one, Rob, it's a different one, I think.

• 1:05:34Tom Ellsworth?

  Horrible.

• 1:05:35Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you know which one I'm talking about?

• 1:05:37Tom Ellsworth?

  Oh, it's great. And how the founding fathers were somehow billionaires that were being fought against.

• 1:05:42Patrick Bet-David?

  Rob, is this the one on this story, AOC claims American revolution was fighting against billionaires? As critics school her on that actual history, do you want to play that clip real quick? Go ahead, Rob.

• 1:05:53Speaker 05

  I want to talk about how this is in the heritage of our country. Because America was founded, you look at Thomas Jefferson writing to Madison

• 1:06:07Speaker 05

  in revolt of British aristocracy.

• 1:06:13Speaker 05

  The American revolution was against the billionaires of their time. And we were declaring independence from such an extreme marriage of wealth and power and the state.

• 1:06:28Patrick Bet-David?

  How do you not know the history of the basic thing that this was? Like this, the Robin Hood story. Robin Hood was against the billionaires. No, Robin Hood was against high taxes and the government taking money away from them. But the reality, you can pause it right there, Rob. The reality of it is, this is a very formidable candidate. It is. And then she's doing this podcast, Rob, I know you have it. She's doing this podcast with this other girl, they're like billionaires this and billionaires that.

• 1:06:55Tom Ellsworth?

  Oh, yeah, and the other girl keeps saying, that's right.

• 1:06:57Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, and so, and so, who knows what this is gonna lead to? But the reality of it is, she is a formidable candidate for 2027, 2028. It was a podcast, Rob, it was, I'll pause here while we're going through it. That's the one right there, Rob. Go for it. Watch this, folks.

• 1:07:12Speaker 04

  There's a certain level of wealth and accumulation that is unearned, right? You can't earn a billion dollars. You just can't earn that. That's exactly correct. You can, you can get market power, you can break rules, you can do all sorts of things. You can abuse labor laws, you can pay people less than what they're worth. But you can't earn that, right? And so, you have to create a myth.

• 1:07:49Speaker 04

  That, since you didn't earn that, you have to create a myth of earning it. There's a certain level of...

• 1:07:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Tom, I'm gonna come to you first with AOC. Go ahead.

• 1:07:59Tom Ellsworth?

  Look, this is an incredibly formidable candidate. I could sit here and pick on her and play, and play, you know, ding dong bingo, right? A6, B6, you know, C22, D19. Bingo, we have a winner. And pick on it that way, but I'm not going to. What I'm gonna point out,

• 1:08:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Love it.

• 1:08:16Tom Ellsworth?

  What I'm gonna point out, this is the most skillful communicator, because there are people in there, you look at that clip there, there are people out there that we're listening to, that's right, that feel the same way, because they're destitute, or because they're struggling, or because something's wrong in their life. And they believe that that voice is representing a solution and a way out, and somehow cares for them. They don't understand that there's no spreadsheet behind what she's saying. Meaning that there's no budget, or there's no long-term corrective fix in what she's saying. But people are listening to this very formidable communicator, this very telegenic person, this person that presents herself female, ethnic, and all the things that go with it,

• 1:09:00Tom Ellsworth?

  which are things that we should be celebrating in America about the diversity of everywhere we are. And it's diversity of people, but then merit on achievement. And instead, she sits there, and she does like this, and what worries me, Pat, is that is a really formidable candidate. I'm gonna make a comparison, everybody's gonna attack me, but remember, go through history. It says, forget about World War II and what he did. Mussolini came to power promising to make the trains run on time, among other things. Now, forget all the other allies and everything he had, but think about that simple promise he was trying to make to the Italian people at the time. "Hey, man, things are so bad, I'll tell you the truth, we'll start simple. I'll make the trains run on time."

• 1:09:42Tom Ellsworth?

  And that's who she is, and this telegenic, absolutely amazing campaigner, that I think people should be joking about less, and figuring out how to counter her, and the people that are listening to her more.

• 1:09:55Adam Sosnick?

  I'm not buying it, man. I understand why people make the argument that she's a formidable competitor. I understand. So... You know, she's very big on social media. For a politician, she's a, you know, a 10. But in real life, she's a 6. I mean, not to go down that path. They look at her like she's some incredible person because she's more attractive than all the other politicians. But what are her policies? What does she stand for? She's living in the wokest leftist district in Brooklyn. She's underqualified, she's unprepared. And if she gets on a debate stage versus a Marco Rubio, are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Talk about being qualified. Again, I get why people want to play that game.

• 1:10:40Adam Sosnick?

  But regarding the billionaires, I'm so sick of this. You remember when you did the debate Jubilee? And you had to make your, you said, "My assertion is the following." And you said billionaires are great for society. And then you went through the societies that have the most billionaires and the societies that have the least billionaires. And if you just look at the math here, it's not even close. The United States here, obviously China's second, which uses capitalism and then has communism to basically spread the wealth. But if you look at a map of South Korea versus North Korea. I mean, like, the conversation's over. Why? Because billionaires create jobs and opportunities and billionaires create millionaires. And then millionaires, they create jobs and opportunities, they create thousandaires.

• 1:11:23Adam Sosnick?

  But when there's no millionaires and there's no billionaires, everyone's just equally poor. So if you're just solving for equity, where we're all in the same place, poor as hell, vote for AOC. And that's the biggest problem, that she just does not respect capitalism.

• 1:11:36Speaker 03

  And it's scary because it's like, Tom, pointing out her, you know, she's not stupid, but she's not the brightest person in the room. When she's like, you know what, we're all gonna, the world's gonna end if we don't change climate change. And what, what was it, 6 years or whatever?

• 1:11:50Adam Sosnick?

  Bernie Sanders said that. And I tweeted this weekend, I said, you know, we're all, we're all dead.

• 1:11:57Speaker 03

  Yeah, no, you're right, we're supposed to be dead. But, and I understand the fact that she's formidable in the sense of the social media and she's out there and she's, she's attractive and she's that person. But again, the policies that these people want, it has never worked. It never worked. This socialist- Communist attitude. Look at Mamda. She is the Mamdani. You want to see, you want, you want your country to look like New York? Then vote for these people and don't do this stupid identity politics. Well, we need a, we just need, I'm, I'm with her. I'm with Hillary, one of the most corrupt people out there that cost the lives of Americans in Benghazi. But it's who, I'm with her. She's a, who cares?

• 1:12:34Adam Sosnick?

  Compared to Hillary, I mean, look, AOC makes Kamala Harris look like a genius. She makes Hillary Clinton look like Albert Einstein. Like, there's different levels to this.

• 1:12:45Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, but by the way, if you, if you notice, what did she say? What, what reference did she say?

• 1:12:50Adam Sosnick?

  The American Revolution is the, the king.

• 1:12:52Patrick Bet-David?

  Whose name did she use?

• 1:12:53Speaker 03

  John Jefferson.

• 1:12:55Adam Sosnick?

  She used Jefferson and Madison.

• 1:12:56Patrick Bet-David?

  So, so when's the last time you've heard her use phrase Jefferson to try to teach us history? When's the last time you've seen?

• 1:13:02Adam Sosnick?

  I've never heard her say.

• 1:13:03Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, but why do you think you're hearing it?

• 1:13:05Adam Sosnick?

  Cause she's trying to sound more presidential.

• 1:13:06Patrick Bet-David?

  Because people behind closed doors are working with her saying, read this book, read that book, read this. Study this, study that, study this, because you're gonna go up against Marco Rubio. This was a great glimpse of somebody who was prepping to run for president. And they're learning history, okay? Prepping. There's a big difference, Adam, between prepping and winning, okay? I watched Rubio the other day. He's at a hearing and she's, he's being asked a question about, you know, this lady says, you have this job, you have that job, you have this job. Are you really the National Security Advisor Council, whatever the, the, the NAC? Is it NAC, National Advisor? Okay, so he's, and you're the secretaries, and you're this.

• 1:13:49Patrick Bet-David?

  And are, are Whitkoff and Kushner talking to you? Are they dealing directly with the president and you're not even involved? He says, no, I talked to Whitkoff and, and he says, let me answer this question because it's a very good question you're asking me. And you just watch the way he handles himself and he educated. The role that this job plays is this, and it depends on portfolio to portfolio, on what happens, on who communicates with who. But I talked, just the way he educates, good luck debating against a guy, guy like that. Um, but I do think, watching her, like, when I go to, uh, Dylan.

• 1:14:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Pick the team he's going to. It took a couple of months. We don't need to make the announcement of what team it is. Uh, but he picked the team that he's going to. Okay. So you know what happens when I go to these practice, go to these tryouts? I, I'm like, I remember that kid. Let me see how much he's improved. He's gotten taller, but he's the same as it was two years ago. I remember that kid. My God, he's gotten better. So I go talk to the parent. What have you guys been doing? Then I'll go look at that kid. I'm like, oh, he's still silly. Then I go look at that kid. I'm like, he's put on weight. Then I go look at that kid. I'm like, my God, that guy just got faster all of a sudden. He's a bullet. Look at this guy. Look how much of a speed that he has, right? You have to watch what talent is doing. AOC is realizing there's a difference between Miami. There's a difference between New York City

• 1:15:10Patrick Bet-David?

  and national. She has to get these things right and she's prepping for it. And, uh, you know, win or loss, I don't know, but you know, she's not going to be one that's going to be sent. Listen, there was a lot of people on the establishment that wanted Andrew Cuomo. There's a lot of people in the establishment wanted Andrew Cuomo. But guess what happened? Mamdani fought it and what happened to Mamdani? He won in what city? New York City. So again, big difference, big different game, but.

• 1:15:36Adam Sosnick?

  She has a higher likelihood of replacing Chuck Schumer or something like that in New York, and that's still even statewide. We'll see if that happens.

• 1:15:42Speaker 03

  And we're glossing over the fact that she said billionaires during Thomas Jefferson. What? That's what year is that?

• 1:15:48Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, 1776.

• 1:15:49Speaker 03

  There's no bill, the word billionaires didn't even come about like Rockefeller was the first billionaire in 1900. What the hell is she even talking about?

• 1:15:56Adam Sosnick?

  She's making the comparison. She's trying to say that the billionaires of today are basically the king of the board.

• 1:15:58Patrick Bet-David?

  It's like socialists love the movie Robin Hood.

• 1:16:02Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 1:16:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Always remember, what was the movie Robin Hood about? Was it taken from the wealthy and given it to the poor? No, it was not.

• 1:16:09Adam Sosnick?

  Robin Hood.

• 1:16:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Who was the king in Robin Hood?

• 1:16:11Adam Sosnick?

  Um, King George.

• 1:16:13Patrick Bet-David?

  And what would he do?

• 1:16:14Adam Sosnick?

  Well, there was a feudal system. They would basically tax the people and basically they'd have to do anything. Exactly.

• 1:16:18Patrick Bet-David?

  It was not about the wealthy. It was about the government overtaxing people.

• 1:16:24Adam Sosnick?

  Correct.

• 1:16:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Actually, that is about socialism and high taxation and what it does in a government. Tries to keep the promises and they don't. It's got nothing to do with millionaires and billionaires.

• 1:16:34Adam Sosnick?

  You're absolutely right.

• 1:16:34Patrick Bet-David?

  It's a bunch of bullshit. Yeah, when you watch.

• 1:16:36Adam Sosnick?

  Because they had all the money, the king had all the money.

• 1:16:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, it's the government had the power. It's like, no, give it to the people.

• 1:16:41Adam Sosnick?

  It wasn't like they were stealing from the Bezos and the most of the world. They were stealing from the government.

• 1:16:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, let's go to the next one. Let's go to the next story I want to get to.

• 1:16:46Tom Ellsworth?

  That's why Dems are trying to revise history in those books that we give the kids in school.

• 1:16:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Let's go to Costco. Rob, Costco. I know it's not in one of the stories that we have. But Costco is coming up predicting recessions around the corner. And the reason why they're predicting recessions around the corner is based on one buying habit that you and I have. And you know what the buying habit is? Let me read it to you. By the way, not just in a current recession or concern for recession, historically, we've always seen some, like within fresh protein, we've seen, we've always seen when there's a recession, whether it was 99, 2009, 08, 010, we would see some sales penetration shift from beef to poultry and pork. And we have seen some of that now. I think anecdotally,

• 1:17:27Patrick Bet-David?

  I heard a few months ago from our head of food and sundries buyer that we saw some switch even to some canned products, like canned chicken and canned tuna and things like that. This is Costco CFO, Richard Galanti, saying the fact that we are not buying enough beef and we're going to chicken and pork. Tom, do you agree with what they're saying here on the fact that we may be in the beginning of a possible recession?

• 1:17:54Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, I think possibly, and Costco would know because these things are shifting. And I think there was a comment that was made by the McDonald's CEO last year when he wasn't inventing new burgers and having videos that criticized him for the way he bit a burger. He was talking about that people were leaving fast casual like Applebee's, Red Robin and Chili's, which cost this much for lunch and coming back to McDonald's. So there was things that are happening there that you see the trends. What's interesting here, we have to remember that beef was up 17.6%, that I found it, uh, earlier this year. And, um, with that increase, there was also, they were talking about the herds were small.

• 1:18:35Tom Ellsworth?

  So the supply of beef was low, driving the price up. So do we see, there it is, 17% over 7, it was 17.6, 17. I love it when I remember the right number. So there you have it. And so people are shifting from that protein to chicken or even canned chicken. Now, could two things be true at once, Pat? I think there are. Beef was up, cost of buying groceries was up. People shift to chicken, lower cost, A. And B, right now, the cumulative impact of the long-term Biden inflation and the fact that wages have not kept pace the right even or even a little lower than CPI

• 1:19:17Tom Ellsworth?

  means that people are struggling and they're looking, especially when you look at fuel, and maybe looking to conserve the home budget. I think both can be possible, but beef was already expensive with seeing a little shift away since the beginning of the year.

• 1:19:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Adam.

• 1:19:33Adam Sosnick?

  Well, there's no economic data that says that the recession has, what's the, the technical definition of a recession is two consecutive order quarters of negative GDP.

• 1:19:43Patrick Bet-David?

  Yep.

• 1:19:43Adam Sosnick?

  I don't even think we've had one.

• 1:19:44Tom Ellsworth?

  Unless you're under Biden, then it's.

• 1:19:46Adam Sosnick?

  But they reworded during the moment. I will say you can always pick out sample sizes like this. There is something earmuffs called the stripper index. You're familiar with this? The stripper index is basically saying, I peeked your interest, buddy. It's all about discretionary income. Is before the market and the number and the data, before the toms show up and be like, beep, beep, beep, it affects regular people. You're the numbers guy. So the party money, the fun money, the discretionary money, the stripper money, the make it rain money. When strippers are like, yeah, I only made a hundred bucks tonight or 50 bucks tonight. But yeah, six months ago, dude, I took a thousand bucks home. All right. When the strippers start feeling it, that's a problem because men were stupid with their money a lot of times, right?

• 1:20:27Adam Sosnick?

  Women are spending their money on makeup and doing things like that. Men have discretionary money, bars, clubs, strippers, whatever, you know, this and. So when they start feeling it, that's a problem. And based on my sources, credible sources, the strippers haven't felt it yet.

• 1:20:40Patrick Bet-David?

  Vinny.

• 1:20:40Speaker 03

  Well, I don't even know what the, that's, I guess they call diamond right now and find out if diamond's not.

• 1:20:46Tom Ellsworth?

  Lexi, Lexi to the main stage, it's not doing well.

• 1:20:48Patrick Bet-David?

  So there you go. We'll see what happened here. Next story I want to get to is a data center. 62 square mile data center is being built in Utah. People are not happy about it. Kevin O'Leary was there, but while this is happening, just to give you some fun fact on how big 63 square miles, it's, it's three Manhattans. Manhattan is 23 square miles. And at the same time, while this is taking place, you have to hear what the sounds like. I don't want to give you the sound yet. Let's first go to this Rob. Is this the town hall? Yep, they get right into it. Okay, go for it.

  Concern and outrage in Utah.

• 1:23:23Speaker 00

  For hell's sake, grow up.

• 1:23:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Where hundreds of protesters this week flooded this meeting of Box Elder County Commissioners. Can you be quiet and let our citizens hear what Niseby said, please? As they voted to move forward with a controversial data center proposal backed by celebrity Canadian businessman Kevin O'Leary.

• 1:23:47Patrick Bet-David?

  Hello, Sharks. Known as Mr. Wonderful on the hit show Shark Tank. We should do this deal. You have no risk. Just say yes. O'Leary firing back at the protests and criticism in this video posted on social media after the vote. I'm pretty aware of what these concerns are. They are around air, water use, heat. Sustainability is at the heart of what we do in terms of all these proposals, not just Utah. The Stratus Project is a plan to build a 40,000-acre development near Utah's Great Salt Lake, boosted by government tax incentives. And according to a county fact sheet, is eventually expected to generate and consume up to nine gigawatts of power once completed.

• 1:24:27Patrick Bet-David?

  A number MIDA, the state entity backing the project, says is more than double Utah's average energy consumption. So that's the concern. Data centers of the old have a bad reputation. They gobble up a lot of water. They use up your power. And then when they're all built, they don't employ many people. This is not that. Power's usage is completely self-contained. The project's potential environmental impact sparking much of the outrage. We're losing land, we're losing water, and we're losing air quality. This has the footprint. Can you show the audio? This is actually a very good video. Can you show the audio of what it sounds like? What these things sound like? Is this gonna be the same exact one, Rob? Or which data center is this that's making this sound?

• 1:25:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Do we know?

• 1:25:13Tom Ellsworth?

  I'll find out what data center this is.

• 1:25:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, let's find out which data center that's from. Uh, go ahead, Rob.

• 1:25:21Speaker 03

  Sounds like a

• 1:25:22Patrick Bet-David?

  Sounds like a plane taking off.

• 1:25:24Speaker 03

  The C5.

• 1:25:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah. Is that really what it sounds like?

• 1:25:28Speaker 03

  That's outside.

• 1:25:31Patrick Bet-David?

  Go in the comment section. I'm just curious to know where this is. Texas and Virginia, what does it say? Texas and Virginia are currently leading the way with data centers. Go a little bit lower to see what the audience is saying. Go a little bit lower. I'm just wondering if other people are saying this is what it sounds like.

• 1:25:44Speaker 03

  That one, Pat, is in Vineland, New Jersey.

• 1:25:47Patrick Bet-David?

  I had a data center that size as a client. It sounded nothing like this. In fact, it didn't sound like anything. What is making that noise? Jet engines, that's exactly what I said because I don't think that's what it sounds like. At Positiv, instead of relinquishing data to China, we should solve this self inflicted. Go a little bit lower. Let's see what she says. They use different forms of electric power. Some are even using gas turbines. Don't argue with body counts. Go a little bit lower. What is in point of this? Keep going a little bit lower. Can we find out where that is, Rob?

• 1:26:15Speaker 03

  I looked it up, Pat, and it said the data center in this video is Vineland, New Jersey, Cumberland County, South Jersey, a large Microsoft backed AI data center facility.

• 1:26:25Patrick Bet-David?

  And is the sound coming from that? Can we find out if Grok or somebody can verify where that sound is coming from?

• 1:26:32Speaker 03

  And I asked Pat, is this what they sound like? She said, yes, that's exactly what large AI data centers sound like, especially when they're running heavy cooling systems or backup on site power generation. The roaring, humming in New Jersey, it's similar, massive arrays of cooling fans, air handling units and cooling towers, noise characteristics at a distance, half a mile, like many Vineland homes.

• 1:26:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Meet your neighbor, a giant data center. Okay, this is what I want to see. If this is real, I mean, what are we talking about if this is real? Play this, Rob.

• 1:27:03Speaker 03

  That's loud.

• 1:27:05Patrick Bet-David?

  That is loud. But again, nowadays, I mean, you have to, who, by the way, can you do me a favor? In the comment section, who, comment, who lives by an AI data center?

• 1:27:16Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:27:16Patrick Bet-David?

  And how bad is it? You know, if you're actually right next to it right now, post a video right now with the link. Send it to us on X. A bunch of you guys are tweeting at me, at Patrick Bedavid. Post it at on X and say, this is what it sounds like right now. Now, if you're close to a data center, Tom, your thoughts?

• 1:27:34Tom Ellsworth?

  So, data centers are getting a bad name, earning a bad name, and then, but there's so much that we could be doing better about it. For instance, water usage, that's the one I look at because I think some of these data centers make this noise. But I think other data centers are quiet unless they turn on the backup power. And the backup power, these enormous diesel engines. If you've ever heard a hospital do, you hear a little siren and then the hospital does a power outage test. And you hear them fire up, the big generators are outside, it's loud, but that's the backup. I want to know is what is the sound actually coming from the data center?

• 1:28:15Tom Ellsworth?

  And, you know, how are they creating the power for the data center and what are they doing about water? I thought it was very, very funny, a data center in Atlanta, Pat, you'll love this. They sucked up 30 million gallons of water until there was outrage because people were calling city hall. You know what they were asking? I'm trying to take a shower and the water pressure's down. And so they go, let's figure it out. So the city literally sent out people to go look at it. It was Annalise Park in Fayetteville, Georgia, about 20 miles south of Atlanta. Ben, you're gonna love this. They found out that one water connection had been installed without the city utilities' knowledge. And the other was not linked to the company's account, therefore they weren't being billed for the water.

• 1:29:00Tom Ellsworth?

  Now, they cleaned everything up and they found out that the people that built it were trying to get it done. And they did some things they shouldn't have done. And so Quality Technology Services paid back Atlanta $150,000 for the water. And they got it all back to the other. But the point is, the usage of water, I think, is bigger because power, if they'll just force them to make. And this is what I keep saying, Mr. President. Mr. President, get the nuclear power permits out so they could put a Gen 5 small reactor at the data center to provide power for the data center. And then if you have a local problem like tornadoes or power grid goes down in some areas, you reduce the power, you brown out the data center and you switch it so that the nuclear reactor

• 1:29:44Tom Ellsworth?

  sends the power to the grid. Now, the water side of this, this is a big issue. It's like, where's the water gonna come from and how do we recycle it? Because they need all the cooling stuff. And so, I think some of this, Pat, data centers deserve the rap they're getting. I want to see a survey, just like you're asking about, which data centers are making noise? Because my understanding is they can be built quiet, except for the backup diesel generators, and you can be self-sufficient on water and power. But guess what? The industry and its hunger to get these things built, they're not communicating or they're not designing them, and they're getting people, righteous citizens, coming to City Hall, asking them for answers the way we've seen in these. These are not crazy people.

• 1:30:27Tom Ellsworth?

  Some of them are crazy, no data centers at all, but other people are just saying, hey, what's the plan to keep my electricity going up?

• 1:30:34Patrick Bet-David?

  So the reason for this, these sounds of jet engines, multiple cities of people have filed lawsuits and complaints against these data centers because they're using these big machines.

• 1:30:44Tom Ellsworth?

  Cool.

• 1:30:45Patrick Bet-David?

  The GPUs, electricity, cooling airflow, which facilities, chips from Nvidia like the H100s, B200s, and GB200 systems. And then while they're building up these racks, the 50 kilowatt, 100 kilowatt, even 150, they're using giant fans to cool off.

• 1:31:00Tom Ellsworth?

  Oh, man.

• 1:31:00Patrick Bet-David?

  And that sound is like the AC sound you hear, like, you know how you have the AC on, you hear it? In some places, they can make it even a little bit less quiet, but no matter what, even at close range, it says, "The combined low-frequency roar can resemble airport tarmac noise, a large warehouse turbine, or distant jet engines." And the cities that AI campuses, residents are complaining is Phoenix, Dallas, Ashburn, Memphis, and it's not slowing down. So it is a real thing that that noise exists. Rob, this is another one that you just pulled up. If you want to play this, go for it.

• 1:31:35Speaker 05

  So this is comparable to the data center that is gonna be built over in the Bertram chain of

• 1:31:47Speaker 04

  The guy from Skanel Properties told me to come and check out this data center.

• 1:31:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Wow, that's bad.

• 1:31:58Speaker 04

  I'm hoping that my phone is capturing that noise.

• 1:32:02Patrick Bet-David?

  It is.

• 1:32:03Speaker 03

  Oh my, I was going nuts.

• 1:32:04Speaker 04

  It is actually significantly loud.

• 1:32:07Speaker 03

  That's what happens in my ears in my sleep.

• 1:32:13Speaker 03

  Bro, imagine working inside. Like, imagine in there.

• 1:32:17Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay, it didn't get any better. Adam, thoughts?

• 1:32:19Adam Sosnick?

  Look, I, uh, this is an important question that I think we're gonna have to have a conversation with, but I think there's precedent here that, that everything's gonna work out. The first question I ask myself is, are we gonna need data centers in America?

• 1:32:32Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:32:33Adam Sosnick?

  We're gonna need them, yes? If we wanna compete in the modern world, in the modern economy.

• 1:32:36Patrick Bet-David?

  You don't do what the enemy will. So you get to pick and choose.

• 1:32:39Adam Sosnick?

  They're already doing it. So to me, it's a nonstarter saying we can't have data centers in America. It's gonna happen. The question is, how close can they be from towns? We have case examples of here. We can't live near nuclear plants or power plants. We don't live near landfills. Not many of us live near airports. I know that we're ironically behind.

• 1:32:59Speaker 03

  We're on one.

• 1:32:59Adam Sosnick?

  On an airport right now. But they're gonna figure out a rule where, you know, and local towns and municipalities and states are gonna figure this out. You, data centers can't be within X amount of miles from town centers or from where the people are. If you're living out in Tungbuktu in the middle of nowhere, sorry, buddy, that might affect you. But the, the, the reality is, we're gonna need data centers, you know? Who controls data and AI is gonna control the future. We're on a fight with China and a lot of our enemies out there. And if it's gonna affect some people's hearings, you, you might have to move. They might not have to, uh, build the data plan, data centers right there. But at the end of the day, data centers are good for society, good for the economy, and just you might have to put on some earmuffs like in old school.

• 1:33:42Speaker 03

  Tom, do they have to be next to the place that's using the, like, it can't be, like, you know, when you're driving in Vegas, Pat, they had that outdoor, uh, solar panel field, and it feeds all the way to.

• 1:33:53Tom Ellsworth?

  You can put the data center wherever you want it, you know? You need water and you need energy. And energy, you know, I'm on record saying that we should accelerate the nuclear permits. So they can have small reactors on site, but it I if the cooling systems are still this loud. Man, there is an opportunity somewhere for an entrepreneur to figure out how we can get.

• 1:34:12Patrick Bet-David?

  They will.

• 1:34:12Tom Ellsworth?

  Exactly. They are smaller, number one, and number two, we got to figure out the water. If they're using water for cooling and they're just saying, hang on a second.

• 1:34:21Speaker 03

  Something tells me an entrepreneur is going to figure this out until these data centers to quiet down.

• 1:34:25Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, but listen, when you're living close to it, what is the most? Here's a question to ask you. What is the most disturbing living situation you ever had that the average person wouldn't understand it unless they experienced it? Oh, go ahead. What was it for you?

• 1:34:40Speaker 03

  Vinnie snoring.

• 1:34:41Patrick Bet-David?

  No, I'm being serious.

• 1:34:42Speaker 03

  Like, like, living in an apartment? I I lived in an apartment complex in North Hollywood. And Pat, when I tell you there were studio apartments, I was living upstairs downstairs. You heard everything, every single noise you heard. Any upstairs downstairs, anybody arguing, whatever. My downstairs neighbor, this dude moved in, Pat, the first day he moved in. I woke up and just walked to the bathroom and he was boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And then started blasting music to like, get back to me. And it was a fight. It was a constant fight because I'm like, it's not my fault that you moved into an apartment. But I was there for four years. You're coming to my to where I live and you can't stand like just walk, regular walking. And it was like a fight where I was trying to fight him by our, because there was a pool in the middle.

• 1:35:26Speaker 03

  You know, the studio apartments in North Hollywood. It was horrible, Pat, and then thank God I got online.

• 1:35:30Adam Sosnick?

  Let me tell you something. Have you ever lived in a major city? Like, I never lived in New York, but I spent a lot of time there. Any major city, it's loud as hell. Any major city, construction going on, this, that, the other 24 city, the city never sleeps. A lot of the people that are complaining are out in, you know, Wichita, Kansas, whatever. They're not used to any noise. And all of a sudden, like, these are the people complaining. You talk to any person in any major city, New York City, anything like that. They're like, dude, this is an everyday thing.

• 1:35:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, Tom.

• 1:35:59Tom Ellsworth?

  The worst living condition? Right after I got out of college, rented a house with some other people. That was all good, but on the same street, you know, all of a sudden, you know, sirens in the middle of the night and you go in there and there's five people laying on the on the front lawn in handcuffs and everything. And you find out that they they built a kitchen, you know, they were building, it was like a. And that they had tapped into the, to the power line and were, you know, running all that power and lights and stuff in there. And so it's like, wow.

• 1:36:32Patrick Bet-David?

  What do you mean they built?

• 1:36:32Speaker 03

  Like a meth?

• 1:36:33Tom Ellsworth?

  No, they were, yeah.

• 1:36:34Speaker 03

  Cooking meth?

• 1:36:34Tom Ellsworth?

  It was everything.

• 1:36:35Speaker 03

  You're like Walter White over here.

• 1:36:37Patrick Bet-David?

  Speak our language.

• 1:36:37Tom Ellsworth?

  No, they were cooking, they were cooking meth and then the, the entire, the entire garage was hydro, was hydroponic pot with all these lamps in it. And it was, this is in West Hills, Canoga Park near Sherman Way. So, and now everybody was really, everybody was like concerned about traffic in that street for the next year. And we were right.

• 1:36:59Patrick Bet-David?

  People learn more about him.

• 1:37:01Tom Ellsworth?

  It's not your fault.

• 1:37:02Speaker 03

  No, what do you mean it's not his fault? He's Walter White. He's literally, Tom, Tom.

• 1:37:06Patrick Bet-David?

  Where do you think his money comes from? Like, how do you think he made all the money?

• 1:37:08Speaker 03

  Where's Jesse?

• 1:37:09Tom Ellsworth?

  I mean, I walked, I walked down to the, I walked down to the guy and I said, say my name.

• 1:37:14Speaker 03

  Tom, you killed, you killed Gustavo Fring.

• 1:37:17Tom Ellsworth?

  And he said Heisenberg and he says, you're right. And then they left.

• 1:37:19Patrick Bet-David?

  All right, let's go to the next story. Okay. So, but, but the point is, if you ever, like for us, we're on the airport here, 11 acres, literally, we have to get an update saying today in F-18, a plane is taking off. Every day it's planes, planes taking off. And I actually don't mind it.

• 1:37:34Tom Ellsworth?

  I love it.

• 1:37:34Patrick Bet-David?

  Does it bother you? Like, does it at all? Do you even think about it when these planes take off?

• 1:37:39Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, yeah. I mean, it's loud as hell, but, uh, we, you know, we, you live, you live and you learn from a military, from a military standpoint.

• 1:37:45Patrick Bet-David?

  Probably because we're military.

• 1:37:46Speaker 03

  I love it, but.

• 1:37:47Tom Ellsworth?

  And also the, uh, the, what we hear doesn't come through as much as we think. It's there, but it's not like, if you're listening to the podcast, it's not a huge.

• 1:37:56Patrick Bet-David?

  All right, let me get to the next story. Trump calls Iran's response to a US proposal to end war totally unacceptable. This is a BBC story, Tom. Rob, I think you got a tweet or something on that to, uh, uh, to read. Iran's semi-official Sunday news agency said Tehran's proposal sent via Pakistan, which has served as a mediator, included an immediate end to the war on all fronts, a halt to US naval blockade and guarantees of no further attacks on Iran. A ceasefire meant to facilitate talks to end, end the war launched by the US and Israel in February has been largely observed and despite occasional exchange fires. So while this is taking place, here's what the. President had to say, this is the tweet that came out, I have just read the response from Iran's so-called representative, I don't like it, totally unacceptable, thank you for your attention to this matter.

• 1:38:41Patrick Bet-David?

  Tom, how much progress is being made right now? Because the president, Peseshkian, from Iran's, did not directly reference to the proposal, but said, "We will never bow our heads before the enemy, and if talk of dialogue or negotiation arises, it does not mean surrender or retreat." Trump posted on Truth Social, I've just read the response, and Trump also said, "They can call us, no one's calling us, they can call us." So, Trump is saying, "If you want to do something, you can give us a call," and they're not saying that any time, they're going to start losing money to be able to pay their military personnel, their government personnel, and then when they do, they're going to get desperate. But you hear different stories, Tom, your thoughts?

• 1:39:18Tom Ellsworth?

  We've been waiting for Iran to respond as a rational actor and get desperate now for three weeks. They haven't, because they're not a rational actor. And you've got things like, the British over the weekend said that they were going to send a frigate to the Gulf to help with the safe passage of ships, did you see that, Pat?

• 1:39:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Yep.

• 1:39:39Tom Ellsworth?

  They're like, even the British are saying, "Okay, we're going to send a ship, and we're going to join you to create a safe passage patrol here." Price of oil today went back up three bucks, now we're back up to $98.33. And the closer we are to $100, the more I feel like, you know, we're not getting there. And the, that's futures, Rob, go WTI. And on the other side of it is, you've got him openly saying, "Nobody's calling us," yeah, 97.29, so almost 98.33 on the other side. So here we are, back to 97.50, 98 for oil, and he said, "Nobody's calling." And so, I hope that means that Whitkop is talking, so, but look at who is trying to help.

• 1:40:22Tom Ellsworth?

  Pakistan sends a message, "Hey, Mr. President Trump, will you please look at this? If that's truth, then that's the way it happened." And then the British saying, "Hey, we'll send a ship." Seems like everybody else is saying, "Can we get moving here? Can we get this fixed?" But we're sitting there, you know, every day, saying, "Listen, we don't like that, we reject that, and, boy, if you keep this up, they'll be held to pay." How long is that circle? That just seems like we're spinning a circle right there. It's kind of frustrating.

• 1:40:53Adam Sosnick?

  Well, we're gonna be playing the wait in a game a little while longer on Iran because I don't see this situation ending anytime soon.

• 1:41:00Speaker 03

  So you're saying the short-term pain isn't gonna be short-term. It's long-term pain for the long-term game.

• 1:41:04Adam Sosnick?

  Long-term game. Why? Because the biggest thing that's going on in the world this week is Trump's about to go meet with Xi. And there's gonna be two major conversations with Xi, and one of them is regarding Iran. Because, believe it or not, this is hurting China's economy worse than it's hurting America's economy. We don't get any oil or goods. The Strait of Hormuz. China gets all that and then some from the Strait of Hormuz. So if you're Iran and you have no problem being the world's bad guy, you have no... You don't care about your people. Your people are basically broke and penniless and starving for food and water, and they don't care. If you're willing to terrorize the entire world, just imagine what you're gonna do to your own people.

• 1:41:45Adam Sosnick?

  So I don't think anything's gonna happen this week. Continue to pay a little bit more at the pump. And let's see what the outcome of this Trump-Xi meeting is, when one of the cornerstones is what do you want to do with China? And maybe, maybe Trump and Xi figure something out diplomatically speaking. But Iran is not breaking yet in the terms of that they're willing to concede to an agreement. Because why would they? They don't care. They're willing to die on this hill. And as long as they survive, they feel like they've won. So don't expect any news anytime soon. There... I think there's a high likelihood, after this Trump-Xi meeting, if there's nothing established,

• 1:42:26Adam Sosnick?

  that they go out and do something militarily, because right now it's just economically. I think there's the...

• 1:42:31Speaker 03

  China does something militarily?

• 1:42:32Adam Sosnick?

  No, no, no. That the United States does something again militarily, whether it's Carg Island, whether it's going out and taking out more people or more things, setting a precedent, but...

• 1:42:42Speaker 03

  I just don't... I don't think that taking out people worked. They thought taking out all these leaders... I just felt like Trump was... I don't know. I... The misconception of just taking out these guys, because Adam, once the one's gone, the next one's coming up. It's just like Tom Bennett, perfect. This is just gonna be a cycle that's gonna keep on...

• 1:43:00Adam Sosnick?

  As much as I agree with you, there are certain people, like, so for instance...

• 1:43:06Adam Sosnick?

  The 20 nuclear scientists that they took out, that basically were spearheading their entire nuclear program. You take these guys out, yeah, you got a problem. Because still the cornerstone of all their

• 1:43:19Adam Sosnick?

  negotiations, everything is the nuclear thing, the enriching uranium. You take out their basically nuclear capacity to enrich and their scientists? Yeah, I'd say that makes a major difference. I agree with you on the Ayatollah, now they got the gay parent and son or whatever. I agree, the IRGC is still there, what is it called, the Bastille? What is it called?

• 1:43:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, I, I, look, I don't, I don't know all the stories behind, so this is my feedbacks coming based on pure podcast or pundit thought, just my ideas on what I'm saying.

• 1:43:53Patrick Bet-David?

  You know, you know what the challenge is now, Vinny? Is when you were there attacking and we were playing offense? And the temperature was super high? And the anger towards the president was very high and the Republicans was very high? And then we went ceasefire to try to lower the temperature and be able to figure something out? Pakistan obviously doesn't have any influence over Iran for Iran to want to negotiate? And nothing's happening with Pakistan? Where they call them and say, hey, let's figure something out, let's do something. So Pakistan to me is not an influential player here. They're just the influence to say, we're holding a meeting at Islamabad, what a great name. So, so they're just, they're just being a facilitator.

• 1:44:35Patrick Bet-David?

  But you're not a facilitator that has any influence because Iran's not listening to you. So me, from the US standpoint, I would look at that. Number two, what you were doing, you were creating pressure, there was tension, there was uprising. That, if you have to restart that again, you're now going back to the level of hates you had four weeks ago, five weeks ago, six weeks, whatever the timeline was, when we were actually playing offense and attacking and doing certain things.

• 1:45:04Patrick Bet-David?

  If you don't, this tweet of every single time, totally unacceptable, totally this, totally that. You know, if it's Trump's playbook of, hey, he kept hitting boats. There was drugs on that boat, Venezuela. He keep hitting boats, he keep hitting boats, it's not acceptable, and then also middle of the night, hey, surprise, we got Maduro, oh shit, okay, so they've been working behind closed doors. Yeah. So if I'm a betting man, behind closed doors, they're working on something that the average person does not know about, what that something is, I don't know. But if they have to go back to attacking again, Vinny, they never needed to stop. If you're choking him, it's kind of like, remember that one fight where the guy has, and by the way, great UFC card, shout out to Strickland for winning the way he did. Amazing.

• 1:45:48Patrick Bet-David?

  But you know how sometimes you have a person and you see the guy backing off? And then he ends up losing? Yeah. Like you have the guy, we recently, UFC fight in Miami, the guy's killing him with the kicks. The guy tears his, I don't know what he tore on his leg, it looked like he tore his knee. And then he's like, just playing, relax, he could have finished the fight, and the guy knocks him out and it's over. Yep. So I feel like US has maybe doing that? And if you have to get back in, I don't think it's gonna be a good look if they get back in there, because now he's, remember he delayed the meeting he was supposed to have with G in March? Mm-hmm. Now they're doing it this Wednesday, Rob, I think you said Wednesday? Yep. And he's going in there with what victories? What is he going in there with? Because one of them was, Trump was trying to do a 10% tariff, did you guys see the 10% tariff thing? Yes, Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional.

• 1:46:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional, because he came out and said, you know, where is that unconstitutional? Yeah, there it is, Donald Trump's 10% global tariff ruled illegal by US court. Illegal by US court. That 10%, you know, who is he playing that against? Most likely China and others, so now you mean to tell me that the courts this quickly said no? So if they're taking all his leverage cards away, now what is he gonna be going in there with? He's gotta go there with something. Yep. He's gotta go there with something, so while Bibi was being interviewed on this, was it the 60 Minutes, Rob, or what interview was it? 60 Minutes. He was asked about the question of the China provide some military weapons to Iran.

• 1:47:16Patrick Bet-David?

  And it was the only thing while he was being interviewed. He said, I uh, I'm gonna keep my mouth closed. Because you know Mossad knows if China gave him anything. What do you think are the chances that Mossad knows exactly what weapons? Okay, so now watch it. This was the only part that he was a little bit uncomfortable. Go ahead, Rob.

• 1:47:34Speaker 05

  Do you really want to have a fanatic regime with nuclear weapons? That is committed to Islamist revolutionary revolutions? That's what Iran's constitution says. We're committed to export the Islamist revolution. So China, I think, should think about.

• 1:47:52Tom Ellsworth?

  Because it's apparently doing it right now.

• 1:47:54Speaker 05

  Could be, could be. I don't want to speak for China. I don't want to speak also.

• 1:47:57Tom Ellsworth?

  But you have eyes and ears on this.

• 1:48:01Speaker 05

  Yeah, well, you know, um, but I also have a closed mouth when necessary.

• 1:48:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Hmm, says a lot. So you see, you see that conversation with. So to me, this, this meeting, everything that's going on with Iran going to China. He has to be thinking about what things will be discussed, what leverages he has, what things he can give to Xi. He's already got a chokehold on him with Panama, with Strait of Hormuz. China needs that oil. So he can go in and say, I'm gonna work with you, you know, do a favor for you if you do this for me with Iran. So I.

• 1:48:41Speaker 03

  Are you, how interesting, like, I'm trying to figure out, because I see where your brain is going. What is Trump gonna go in there with? What's the thing where he's gonna go, hey, listen, I know you need this.

• 1:48:49Patrick Bet-David?

  A lot of, he does have a lot of leverage, but you wanna, you know, every year when we would, Tom, Tom knows this. Every year we ran PHP, every time we had a big event, from the moment the event was over with, till next year's event, guess what I'm working on for 12 months? What am I working on, Tom?

• 1:49:06Adam Sosnick?

  Growing the next year's event.

• 1:49:07Patrick Bet-David?

  No, but what am I looking at? What do I want? Announcements. All I'm doing is new announcements at the Vault Conference. Not at our annual convention that we have. So if I left an event and I have my next event coming up with my guys, I want an announcement at the next event. Then if I'm going, so it's constant announcement about progress that you're making. So he's constantly working on announcement to be making. What announcement is he gonna be making out of China? I don't know. He's working right now behind closed. By the way, the next 48 hours, don't be surprised if you get a crazy announcement made from Trump or the White House to to claim a victory on something. I don't know what it is, but I'm expecting one of those tweets to say, "Great news, you know, such and such.

• 1:49:51Patrick Bet-David?

  We just brokered a deal with pa, pa, pa, pa, pa. That's gonna create this many." I'm expecting something like that next 48 hours. Adam?

• 1:49:59Adam Sosnick?

  Regarding China?

• 1:49:59Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah.

• 1:50:00Adam Sosnick?

  Well, this is a big, big meeting. This is the, this is probably the biggest meeting in the world. Yeah, there's so many storylines that have gotten unfortunately buried behind everything that's attached to Israel. Israel and Gaza. We completely forgot about the entire war in Russia and Ukraine, which I don't know if you saw what's happening there. They announced some sort of ceasefire, which is the first we've seen in something like that. We've also forgot that China is our number one enemy. What Trump wants to do, which is, you know, major kudos for him taking down Iran and what he's doing there, but he hopefully wanted to pivot immediately to get to China. Because Israel and Iran are gonna have a longstanding thing. They're neighbors, they're not going anywhere. They're gonna have their internal issues. And obviously, Israel is clearly kicking Iran's butt.

• 1:50:44Adam Sosnick?

  But Trump was hoping to pivot from Iran to China, because that is our number one geopolitical threat in the world today. So he's going into this meeting with some, uh, with some L's, but also with some, with some W's, with some wins. Because don't forget, the Strait of Hormuz is affecting who more than the United States? China. China is desperately being affected by the Strait of Hormuz. And if you look at the Wall Street Journal, if you want to look up the cover story, it says, "Iran War Hangs Over The China Summit." "As Trump prepares to meet Xi Jinping this week, he's eager to move forward from the conflict that is hurting the domestic power and global economy." And it talks about some great things that China is doing,

• 1:51:27Adam Sosnick?

  but how their economy is starting to crumble. How China is feeling the effects of this war way more than the United States.

• 1:51:35Patrick Bet-David?

  There you go. So, so we'll see. We'll see what's gonna happen here.

• 1:51:40Patrick Bet-David?

  I do think in a major way, they both want the same thing. I do think in a major way, they both want the same thing because China relies on their export to go. And so they need both the import of the oil and the export of their products that they have. So, you know, again, like I've said this for the last, you know, 10 years. I trust this guy negotiating on behalf of you and I, the American people in the rooms more than anybody else. And, uh, let's see. Let's see what happens with that meeting. Couple of them, a couple of other things I want to get into before we wrap up. Did you watch the roast of Kevin Hart?

• 1:52:14Speaker 03

  I just, I just.

• 1:52:15Patrick Bet-David?

  Did you watch the roast of Kevin Hart?

• 1:52:17Speaker 03

  I saw clips.

• 1:52:17Adam Sosnick?

  I did not.

• 1:52:18Patrick Bet-David?

  Which clips have you seen?

• 1:52:19Speaker 03

  I saw Tony Hinchcliffe, what was like 13 minutes, Rob? He was just brutal. I saw, um.

• 1:52:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Did you see Cat Williams?

• 1:52:27Speaker 03

  I just saw a clip, a small clip of him.

• 1:52:29Patrick Bet-David?

  So Cat, is it fair to say that Cat Williams and Kevin Hart, it's not like they're.

• 1:52:33Adam Sosnick?

  They have not been friends or allies.

• 1:52:35Patrick Bet-David?

  If you remember Cat Williams' most popular podcast two years ago that he did with Shannon Sharpe. That went viral. One of the guys that he was talking about was who?

• 1:52:44Speaker 03

  Kevin Hart.

• 1:52:44Patrick Bet-David?

  Kevin Hart. So here's Cat Williams talking about Kevin Hart and Diddy. Have you seen this?

• 1:52:49Speaker 03

  I haven't.

• 1:52:49Adam Sosnick?

  No.

• 1:52:50Patrick Bet-David?

  Okay. So this is good. You guys haven't seen it. Here's Cat Williams talking about Kevin Hart and Diddy. Go for it.

• 1:52:55Speaker 02

  ... There was a record number of releases on the bed, in the pool, on the floor, everywhere but the hose.

• 1:53:06Speaker 03

  Fluffy.

• 1:53:07Speaker 02

  But I want to be clear. Just because Kevin went to Diddy parties does not mean he did something wrong. The fact that he gets all quiet when you bring it up.

• 1:53:22Speaker 02

  That means he did something wrong.

• 1:53:28Patrick Bet-David?

  By the way. Hey, man. That's Cat Williams for you. His timing is so fun. Guy's brutal. And then it was, uh, Tom Brady had a moment. I don't know if you saw the Tom Brady one. I did. Tom Brady, the reason why this was a good one is because this is Tom Brady's way of getting back at heart. And listen, Hart's a professional. He does this for a living. So he knows how nasty these things get. Go ahead, Rob.

Whitman's votes drove up costs, cut Medicaid, and risked 350,000 Virginians' healthcare to pay for tax breaks for himself and his donors. He's not on our side. Shannon Taylor will fight corruption, cut taxes, and bring down costs. This November, vote for Shannon Taylor. She's for us. Paid for by HMP, the House Majority PAC.com.

  Have you even left the forum?

• 1:55:22Speaker 02

  Or have you just been here screaming into that mic the last two years, waiting for daddy to come home?

• 1:55:30Speaker 02

  Well, unlike your real dad, I actually showed up. Oh, you son of a bitch. You son of a bitch.

• 1:55:38Speaker 03

  Watch your jersey. Oh, you son of a... Give me the fucking jersey. That's newborn size. Give me the fucking jersey. That fit you? Give me the fucking jersey. Alright, sit down.

• 1:55:45Patrick Bet-David?

  Hey, with the language.

• 1:55:47Speaker 03

  Fucking hobbit.

• 1:55:49Speaker 03

  Huh?

• 1:55:49Patrick Bet-David?

  Hey, ee, ee, ee, ee, ee. Bro, it's like, I'm gonna get my...

• 1:55:55Speaker 03

  Oh, my God.

• 1:55:56Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, you gotta, you gotta watch all of this stuff and see how it is, you know, and how they go back. It's not for everybody, Vinny, just roasting. It's brutal.

• 1:56:03Speaker 03

  If you, I, mind you, this morning, after like I'm praying and I'm doing all my stuff, I'm just like, it said Tony Hinchcliffe, the whole thing, it was bad.

• 1:56:10Patrick Bet-David?

  Really?

• 1:56:11Speaker 03

  Oh, my...

• 1:56:12Patrick Bet-David?

  Do you have the Hinchcliffe one? Cause I haven't seen that one. Let's see what Hinchcliffe is.

• 1:56:16Speaker 03

  It is, I'm just warning you guys. Air muffs, if you have kids.

• 1:56:19Patrick Bet-David?

  Is it that bad?

• 1:56:20Speaker 03

  Tony Hinchcliffe obliterates what's, uh, Chelsea Handler about, they talk about abortion and he talks about, what's his name's father? Oh, my God.

• 1:56:28Patrick Bet-David?

  Father, like?

• 1:56:29Speaker 03

  What's his name's father? The, uh, Kim Kardashian's, um...

• 1:56:32Patrick Bet-David?

  Robert Kardashian?

• 1:56:33Speaker 03

  No, no, Tony Hinch, there it is. Pat, he is, it's seven minutes.

• 1:56:37Patrick Bet-David?

  Ah, it's too long.

• 1:56:37Speaker 03

  This is the one here that's just the beginning of it?

• 1:56:39Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, just put the beginning.

• 1:56:39Speaker 03

  It's brutal, Rob. It's so brutal.

• 1:56:42Patrick Bet-David?

  Go ahead, Rob.

• 1:56:43Speaker 02

  One more time for Tiana Taylor, everybody. That was amazing. This roast is so ghetto, I thought I heard a fire alarm chirp at one point during her set.

• 1:56:54Speaker 02

  Are you still watching? One more time for Shane Gillis. He looks like the type of slave owner that you can trick into buying Kevin Hart. Uh, so, uh, he'll get bigger, right?

• 1:57:07Speaker 02

  If Kevin was a slave, his song would be "Let My People Grow." This is a big roast. Kevin Hart is trying to fill Tom Brady's shoes. A lot of extra space. That's like Pete Davidson's dick trying to fill Kim Kardashian's vagina. Indeed, the closest Pete has come to greatness is when his dick rubbed up against some of Kanye's old town.

• 1:57:30Patrick Bet-David?

  I don't know this is what it was.

• 1:57:31Speaker 03

  It's so bad.

• 1:57:31Patrick Bet-David?

  We can borrow it like that. Alright.

• 1:57:33Adam Sosnick?

  But did you watch the whole thing?

• 1:57:35Patrick Bet-David?

  I didn't watch the whole thing.

• 1:57:36Speaker 03

  It is brutal.

• 1:57:37Adam Sosnick?

  No, I, but I do watch a lot of the roasts, by the way, and, and they're incredible and they're always for a good cause. And you gotta give the whoever's being roasted some major respect. I mean, and you think about some of the greatest roasts of all time, Trump did a roast. They roasted Trump.

• 1:57:53Patrick Bet-David?

  Snoop, do you remember what Snoop said about Trump at his roast?

• 1:57:55Adam Sosnick?

  About, no.

• 1:57:56Patrick Bet-David?

  This ain't the first time you kicked a black man out of his house.

• 1:57:59Adam Sosnick?

  Exactly.

• 1:58:00Patrick Bet-David?

  I haven't seen.

• 1:58:01Adam Sosnick?

  Oh, yeah, of course.

• 1:58:01Patrick Bet-David?

  That's Snoop's. Yes, too. Yeah.

• 1:58:03Adam Sosnick?

  Tom Brady did a roast recently.

• 1:58:04Patrick Bet-David?

  He did. Nasty.

• 1:58:05Adam Sosnick?

  A couple of years ago. Pamela Anderson, I see Justin Bieber. Listen, to sit there and get there and take a joke, it's a special type of person and for a good cause, and I know that you were trying to lead the charge, and I can help you do this, of doing a Bibi Netanyahu roast. I know that was something that was near and dear to your heart.

• 1:58:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Well, that word alone has a different meaning to different people. There are some people that really don't like that guy.

• 1:58:28Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah.

• 1:58:28Patrick Bet-David?

  But, you know, it's funny, we were talking this morning with Rob on the interview that happened with him. Timing with marketing. I had a call with somebody, I don't want to say the person's name, and I said, "Look, you guys are not winning the PR game because of the way you're handling yourself, and it's horrible." In this world, the moment like, you know, people that I've known for many years, who maybe haven't spoken to in a while because they have their own lives, they're, you know, good friends of mine, California, Texas, they live different places, they'll say, "Oh, my God, I see the comment section and is everything okay?" It's as if like, this just happened. See, the thing about criticism is if you all of a sudden go public,

• 1:59:13Patrick Bet-David?

  and you're like a rookie who just got a contract, you go public and they criticize you, you're not used to it, Tom. Right. So you watch the comment section 24/7 because you're worried about the comment section, right? But if you're gradually coming up and you've been beaten up and people are trashing you left and right, you know what ends up happening? You end up realizing, this is part of the game. Yeah. You have, you either keep your mouth shut and don't say anything, or if you do, there's going to be some pushback, and if you're expecting to win 100% of people over in the world, good luck to you. That's a very tough life you're living. It's a miserable life you're living if you're trying to win everybody over. But, yeah, I do think this roast idea, there's, the timing's got to be right. Yeah, do you have the Trump one with Snoop? This is the legend. You haven't seen this one?

• 1:59:57Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh, you have to hear this. This is what Snoop said about Trump on his roast.

• 2:00:00Adam Sosnick?

  Like a decade ago, right?

• 2:00:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Go for it. Yeah.

• 2:00:03Speaker 02

  Donald say he wants to run for president and move on into the White House. Why not?

• 2:00:09Speaker 03

  It wouldn't be the first time you pushed a black family out of their home.

• 2:00:13Patrick Bet-David?

  Ivanka sees.

• 2:00:18Tom Ellsworth?

  And by the way, it turned out to be true.

• 2:00:20Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, well, Obama was already out. So it's not like, you know, Obama, it's not like he kicked him out. He kicked Biden out.

• 2:00:26Tom Ellsworth?

  No, he kicked, well, you know, I mean.

• 2:00:29Patrick Bet-David?

  No, he didn't. I know, but Obama.

• 2:00:31Tom Ellsworth?

  Obama served two terms.

• 2:00:33Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, that's the part. But Biden was kicked out. Like, if you ever watched the Melania documentary, in the documentary, the last 40 minutes of the documentary, the first 40 minutes is about fashion. The last 40 minutes is about what happened when they went into the White House. It's actually worth watching because you see how annoying it was and how they treated Trump.

• 2:00:54Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah.

• 2:00:54Patrick Bet-David?

  And then how satisfying it felt when Jill Biden and Joe had to get out of the property. Trump kicked Biden out of.

• 2:01:01Tom Ellsworth?

  Oh, really?

• 2:01:02Patrick Bet-David?

  Oh.

• 2:01:03Tom Ellsworth?

  He gets it, stepping.

• 2:01:04Patrick Bet-David?

  No, no, he did. And he was still, they were still graceful about it. But are you seeing what they're saying right now with the 2020 election, the fraud, everything that Trump has said? I couldn't even say these words. Now they let me use these words.

• 2:01:14Tom Ellsworth?

  Yeah.

• 2:01:14Patrick Bet-David?

  Because when they come out and everybody sees that these guys cheated and they did. Are you seeing this last week and what he's been saying? I thought, we're hoping it comes out. So we'll see. I mean, obviously, a lot of this stuff. Today is Fauci's last day. If Rand Paul is gonna do anything. Tom, do you think there's gonna be anything done with Fauci today?

• 2:01:29Tom Ellsworth?

  Um, so do I think that?

• 2:01:31Patrick Bet-David?

  It's the deadline. It's the deadline for, it's a five-year deadline today.

• 2:01:34Tom Ellsworth?

  Okay, so do I think enough congressmen or senators or whomever will put pressure on the Department of Justice so that their major campaign donors, I mean, the pharmaceutical industry, will get behind Fauci actually being prosecuted for hurting their, I mean, making them billions in profits? Do I think that that's going down? Hell, no. Hell, no. This is gonna expire. It doesn't matter how bad Fauci is. Doesn't matter how terrible it was. And we could scream and scream all day, and I'm with, I'm with Vinny. And by the way, on a good day, I am more passionate and more angry and more dedicated and more focused than the angry patriot. I am the nuclear patriot on my days.

• 2:02:17Tom Ellsworth?

  But do I think something's gonna happen here? No, I don't. Because of the amount of pharmaceuticals in the industry that have money behind these candidates and by the people in office. No, because guess what happens? The dominoes start falling.

• 2:02:33Tom Ellsworth?

  It's not just Fauci. It's now you get back into, okay, should we have done it this way? Should we have given them, you know, you know, immunity in Congress? Should we have done this? Should we have controlled the CDC different? Fauci is a domino. Nobody wants to tip over and nothing is gonna happen. That's my opinion.

• 2:02:51Adam Sosnick?

  I'm with Tom on this. Nothing's gonna happen, but I, you know, immunity, pardon, all that. But I'm nominating our very own Vincent O'Shaughnessy for the unofficial official Fauci czar. I want you to keep an eye on this guy moving forward. I know how much we detest this guy. As of today, I don't see anything happening. It's gonna fall on your lap now.

• 2:03:10Speaker 03

  He's one of the type of people that makes it very, very difficult to be a Christian because you have to pray that he gets it right. Because Adam, guess what?

• 2:03:19Tom Ellsworth?

  So true.

• 2:03:20Speaker 03

  From the looks of it, Thomas, it's not gonna happen here. But guess what, Adam? You don't think he knows every single thing that his conniving self did and all the millions of people's lives that are affected? And so remember, we talk about the thief on the cross that you're like, whoa, you mean last minute? He better get right and he better do it fast. Because if we don't get justice here, God will. And Pat, just really, really quick, do you remember Jill Biden's? Because you guys mentioned the Bidens. Her ex-husband, they found his wife dead. He was just charged with murder for killing his wife. Remember Jill Biden's ex-husband? His wife died. She fell or something, Rob, in a parking lot. He was, she was-

• 2:03:55Tom Ellsworth?

  Unrelated story to Fauci.

• 2:03:56Speaker 03

  Unrelated to Fauci, but Pat mentioned the Bidens. Jill Biden's ex-husband, apparently, I saw it on Fox, I sent it to Rob.

• 2:04:03Tom Ellsworth?

  Wow, stabbed, shot, suffocated, strangled, and bludgeoned. Suicide.

• 2:04:08Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, suicide, so.

• 2:04:09Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, I want to wrap up with the story. I want to wrap up with the story. Who remembers Lonny Wilson?

• 2:04:15Tom Ellsworth?

  Lonny Wilson?

• 2:04:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Who remembers Lonny Wilson? Rob, can you type in Lonny Wilson images? Okay? Just type, no, no, just type in Lonny Wilson and then on search, go to images.

• 2:04:26Patrick Bet-David?

  Who remembers Lonnie Wilson? Okay, remember the Lonnie Wilson, she was married to Jermaine Jackson? Rob, can you pull up the thing I just sent you?

• 2:04:33Speaker 03

  Oh yeah, I do remember her.

• 2:04:34Patrick Bet-David?

  Lonnie Wilson.

• 2:04:35Speaker 03

  She a Baywatch girl?

• 2:04:36Patrick Bet-David?

  She was gorgeous, she was, you know.

• 2:04:37Speaker 03

  Was she Baywatch?

• 2:04:38Patrick Bet-David?

  Um.

• 2:04:39Speaker 03

  Yeah. Yeah? Oh wow.

• 2:04:41Patrick Bet-David?

  Lonnie Wilson was like

• 2:04:42Speaker 03

  Damn.

• 2:04:42Patrick Bet-David?

  A Pamela Anderson type of a girl. Look up the one I just sent you, Rob, on... I just texted it to you, literally right now, if you want to pull it up. Watch what happened to Lonnie Wilson, okay? You see it, all the way at the bottom, you have a text right there, watch this. That's before and afterward Lonnie Wilson.

• 2:05:00Speaker 03

  No way.

• 2:05:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Zoom in.

• 2:05:02Speaker 03

  No.

• 2:05:03Patrick Bet-David?

  That's Lonnie Wilson.

• 2:05:04Speaker 03

  Oh my goodness.

• 2:05:06Patrick Bet-David?

  Go to the next page.

• 2:05:07Speaker 03

  Oh, no.

• 2:05:09Adam Sosnick?

  That's meth.

• 2:05:10Speaker 03

  No, that's more than meth.

• 2:05:13Adam Sosnick?

  Are you kidding me?

• 2:05:14Patrick Bet-David?

  That's Lonnie Wilson.

• 2:05:15Speaker 03

  No way.

• 2:05:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Yeah, that's Lonnie Wilson today.

• 2:05:17Speaker 03

  Pat.

• 2:05:19Adam Sosnick?

  Why is this whole thing in Spanish?

• 2:05:21Patrick Bet-David?

  You can translate if you need to.

• 2:05:22Speaker 03

  That looks like, oh my god, it's like Gollum from Lord of the Rings.

• 2:05:24Patrick Bet-David?

  You know what's crazy, when you see, go back on the pictures, Rob, go back on the cup, that's a tough one to see. Uh, but when you see this, you know what it is, and, and the part with a story like this, isn't necessarily, when you think about it, I read, I read Charlie, uh, Charlie Munger's Almanac. Can you pull up Charlie Munger's Almanac? I actually think it's a very good book for everybody to order. I don't know how much it is, like 50 bucks or something like that. Everybody should have, in their office, a Charlie's Almanac, to just read. How much is it? Yeah, okay, 20 bucks, but you buy the other one, buy the one, uh, buy the hardcover one.

• 2:05:56Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:05:57Patrick Bet-David?

  Uh, go to the other one, Rob, so we can see the right image, uh...

• 2:06:00Speaker 03

  The big blue one.

• 2:06:01Patrick Bet-David?

  Maybe go back to images, uh, maybe go back to images that you had, right there. Click on one of the blue ones, yeah, click on the, uh, right there. So when you read this book, in the book, they interview his kids. I don't know how many kids he's got, my memory, uh, uh, I think he had six kids, or five kids, he had a lot of kids. And they said, what was? Eight. Eight kids. So, yeah, a lot of kids. So, they asked his kids, "What would daddy talk to you guys about during dinner?" You know what they said? He said, "Dad wouldn't talk about success stories. He would do the opposite. He would tell stories of people that had success and lost it all, or that almost experienced success and then lost everything they had

• 2:06:44Patrick Bet-David?

  for many different reasons: bad friends, drugs, alcohol, all this stuff that you go through." Yesterday, I'm reading this book on estate planning and legacy and all this stuff. And when you're going through it, one of the things it talks about in this book, it says, "The challenge, you know, kids with wealthy families have is it's, they have access to everything. It's right in front of you. Whatever you want to get, you have access to it. You want to get drugs, you want to get girls, you want to do anything,

• 2:07:17Patrick Bet-David?

  you have access to it." "The wealthy lead lives of exceptional temptation, given the ease with which they can indulge lust, gluttony, and sloth. School and extracurricular activities for children must therefore be prioritized. Those which teach discipline, the child who masters his body against sloth, gluttony, and cowardice is well disposed to latter master his spirit against lust and corruption." Okay, and he's kind of talking about how to do this with kids. Actually, I thought it was a very important thing to do. There is no difference between Lonnie and us. You see a story with Lonnie, it can happen at anybody. It can happen to anyone. You know, to some people, maybe not at that levels. You know, when you get to a level like that, when you see someone go, it hurts

• 2:08:02Patrick Bet-David?

  because that's someone's kid, that's someone's daughter, that's someone's, you know, a friend that goes through a situation like that. But it is that important to constantly talk to your kids about not just success stories, about the people that had a close shot at doing something big with their lives that they destroyed because of a bad friend, bad situation, trying to please. A guy was sitting with me in one of our meetings last week. He asked me a very good question, this guy. I don't want to say his name because he asked a personal question. He says, "I've always had the reputation of being the class clown. You know, I always have the reputation of being the guy that jokes around, so everybody laughs. Everybody laughs and all this stuff. I'm kind of always that guy."

• 2:08:45Patrick Bet-David?

  So, look, there's a difference between being funny and being silly. There's a difference between being funny and silly. One time, one of my kids came home and him and I were sitting down talking and I told him, I said, listen, do you want to grow up to be a clown? No, I said, because let's, let's look at the clown salary. Rob, can you pull up the average salary of a clown? Pull up the average salary of a clown. And I went through the whole thing. Said, look, if you want to look up daddy will help you become anything you want to become. The average salary of a clown makes sixty two thousand dollars to eighty thousand dollars a year. Okay, you can be a clown if you want to. Is that what you want to do? There's a difference between comedian and clown.

• 2:09:23Patrick Bet-David?

  I said, you can laugh. You can joke, you can tell jokes, comedians do that all the time. But silliness where everybody looks at you and laughs at you versus laughs with you. That is a big difference. And so in life, you know, the dinner this week, we had a very good dinner this week that we went out. It typically always turns into some kind of a conversation that we go to. Every time it's a different type of a topic we go to. But we have to shape the mindset of our kids that you're one friend, one bad friend, one bad party, one bad situation away from destroying your life. One bad temptation, it's not a big deal, just try this. Everybody does this, it's a little bit, it's not that much, you can control it. I know how to control my liquor, I know how to control my drugs, I know how to control this.

• 2:10:08Patrick Bet-David?

  And today, for every boring message like this, there's plenty of guys on TikTok and Instagram that are telling the other part. If you only do enough LSD and you control it, you're going to be fine. If you just try a little bit of mushrooms, if you just do a little bit of TRT, if you just do a little bit of, you know, Sosten and 250 or Deco or D-Ball or all this stuff while you're 18, 19, 20, it's just a little bit, it's not a big deal. Let's just do a little bit. So I saw that picture with Lonnie. Listen, back in the days, if you came to my room in the army, I had pictures of all these girls on my wall in the army. I had one of those walls, Amy Fadali, Lonnie, Monica, I wouldn't say Monica Brandt was her name? Was it Monica Brandt? You want, it was Monica Brandt, yeah.

• 2:10:50Patrick Bet-David?

  Monica Brandt on the wall, Amy Fadali, type in Amy Fadali, Rob. Amy Fadali, if it was F A D H A L I, I want to. F A D H F A F A A not I F A D Right there, I think that's the one go on images there. Uh, yeah, that was her. So then there was another one called Angel Teves T E V E S. I remember all these girls.

• 2:11:14Adam Sosnick?

  A lot of posters.

• 2:11:15Patrick Bet-David?

  I have a lot of posters of girls. Angel S. Yeah, there you go. That one right there. That poster was on my wall. That poster right there. I'm telling you, so you know a lot of these girls, right? You know, and by the way, eventually I went to Mr. Olympia, I met Angel, I met a lot of these. But they went from like this, Vinny, overnight destroying their lives. So I don't know if it's timely or not for you, but if you have a daughter or a son that you want to sit down and tell some of these stories as much as it's painful. Sometimes you gotta scare the crap out of your kids to know what's possible. If you don't make some good choices, you make some bad choices, you can destroy your life. Anyways.

• 2:11:50Speaker 03

  Well, and I just want to piggyback on how great because we've been through and I know people that have been through it. The people that you surround yourself and then you have to equip them with the right thing, because sometimes they're going to cross paths with those people. It's inevitable. It's inevitable. And every time I see somebody like that, besides the, you know, being the daughter, you know, of a mother, father. Like, who, who are you surrounding yourself around that is, is going to introduce you to heroin? Or meth? You, you, you understand what I'm saying? Like that, that my father taught me, only honestly, two things that I remember. You know, he was just the guy that, that provided the bills. There was no, my mom was the love and the caring and all that stuff. My dad was just the authoritative figure and just, you know, paid the bills, even though he drank and smoked and entertained his friends.

• 2:12:36Speaker 03

  It was, you tell me who your friends are and I'll tell you who you are. And every time these people would be around, my mom would know. She had that like intuition, you know what I mean? Like she would just point and be like that. I don't trust that one. And mind you, I knew killers. I knew a guy that literally the, the, his mother's boyfriend was abusing and blah, blah, and he actually shot and killed her. That guy's in my house, post getting out of jail because the, the community got behind him because it was self-defense. She loved him, adored him, but the one that would come in and she'd be like, stay that, I don't trust that guy. That was the one that was always trying to push me, like you said. Smoke a little bit of this, just do a little of this. But I didn't smoke weed pills out of the military. I didn't do, I was, I was on the straight.

• 2:13:16Patrick Bet-David?

  Just started last week, first time I might.

• 2:13:18Speaker 03

  Congratulations, Tom. Was Tom finally giving you with the bong? With the bong hit?

• 2:13:21Patrick Bet-David?

  Wowie, wowie, what's the one you like the most, Tom?

• 2:13:24Tom Ellsworth?

  Well, there is Acapulco Gold, there is Maui Wowie. There is Northern California.

• 2:13:30Speaker 03

  You know why I shaved his mustache? Because he burned himself smoking a joint.

• 2:13:33Patrick Bet-David?

  See, that's the, that's a better story than the one he gave.

• 2:13:37Tom Ellsworth?

  By the way, excuse me, it's a blunt.

• 2:13:38Speaker 03

  Oh, my bad, Tom. My bad.

• 2:13:41Adam Sosnick?

  It's just great that Tom's a bigger partier than Adam, or Adam was.

• 2:13:44Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 2:13:45Adam Sosnick?

  But.

• 2:13:45Tom Ellsworth?

  Biz Doc's signature series bong at VTmerch.com.

• 2:13:49Adam Sosnick?

  Don't make the, uh, the, the bong noise.

• 2:13:51Speaker 03

  Don't do the bong.

• 2:13:51Adam Sosnick?

  But what, what you're saying, what you're saying is true. I mean, I, I've read these estate planning fails. You're talking, remember the show Scared Straight? The, the, the scariest thing is when you watch it happen in front of your eyes. I've lost more than a handful of friends to drugs, alcohol overdose and all that. But there's one thing that is, that is more challenging than anything else. I have one friend who's already lost his brother. His brother overdosed and died, uh, about a year and a half ago. And to deal with the issue, he's now doing drugs.

• 2:14:29Speaker 03

  Oh, man.

• 2:14:29Adam Sosnick?

  And we're telling him, and this is a very good friend of mine. Man, stop. Ah, this is my last time. I promise. Does it again, dude. And when you care for somebody and you want to help them change. And some people use it as an escape. Some people have an addiction. Some people want to use it as fun and have fun. The problem is when they, and it's all three. And it's the saddest thing, cause when you see someone, you know, the, the, the Chaz quote, the saddest thing in life is wasted talent.

• 2:15:00Speaker 03

  Yep.

• 2:15:00Adam Sosnick?

  When you see someone so that's so incredibly talented, whether it was this famous actress, whether it's, you know, what's, what's the guy from Friends that died? Uh, Matthew Perry? When you see them and you're like, please stop drinking. Please stop doing this and they promise you. And then their words are hollow and they have no meaning. You don't know what to do as a friend. So this is something that I'm seeing and that's a challenge. And we just want our friends to not do this.

• 2:15:24Speaker 03

  Well, you made a great point though about, about teaching them and telling them and showing them. You have to, cause especially people that have money, Adam, they have the money, success. Who's telling them no, because they fear, Pat? And I had this type of friend, I have a couple of them where if you tell them and you have that talk, it's like, who the hell do you think you are? And they will cut you off like that.

• 2:15:42Adam Sosnick?

  Yeah, that's the.

• 2:15:43Speaker 03

  You're done.

• 2:15:43Patrick Bet-David?

  A guy, my neck to me, I told him something. I said, guy sends me a my neck says, how do you handle all this stuff? I said, you know, what's the greatest compliment now? I know, but at the time when I was going through it, it was painful. He says, what's that? I had one good friend of mine, his name was Davina. He's the only guy, Davine, good looking guy, go with the ladies, fun. I know his number off the top of my head right now, I can just tell you his number, I'm not going to because everyone's gonna text the guy. But he was the only guy that when I came out of the military, I lived with him for 18 days. During my break, I lived with him, I loved Davine. But one day, I used to go out with all these guys and he calls me. We used to work at Burger King together at 14 years old, yeah, little, he was the drive-through guy, was a chef in the back. My manager Eddie wouldn't make me a drive-through, he says, you talk too much.

• 2:16:27Patrick Bet-David?

  He says, you just go in the back, so I would make Burger King, Whopper, no onion. And I had my shirt, he only had a medium shirt and my lower back was always up. Cause you're bending over making this, I said, get me a damn extra large, I only got a medium right now. Well, he was wearing a medium. I was wearing my Payless shoes, I like what Pat was here, his Payless shoes, his shoes, pizza were missing. Three people can validate that story, Davine, Kogan and Eddie. But anyways, one day Davine calls. He says, hey Pat, what are you doing tonight? I said, dude, I'm reading on stocks tonight, I gotta finish that part of it. He says, you're reading on stocks? I said, yes. He says, man, and by the way, I haven't gone to clubs now for a year and a half with them. He says, Pat, can I tell you something? I said, yeah, what's that? He says, I miss the old Pat. He says, we all miss the old Pat. First time he said it to me, it hurt.

• 2:17:10Patrick Bet-David?

  So then you get off and then you realize, you went from the cool guy to the boring guy, to the guy that's pursuing a vision. But sometimes the biggest compliment people will ever give you is I miss the old you. And that's actually a compliment. It's not a negative thing. It's actually a compliment, it's a badge of honor, cause I don't miss the old guy. I love the new guy. I enjoy spending time with this new guy. If you're wiser and you never have to go through it, even better for you, like Trump never drank alcohol. If you can go through without ever doing that, even better for you. But anyways, before we wrap up the podcast, guys, I just looked at the amount of people that. You really want to know what's in the survey? We put it out there now.
