[00:00:41] Well, alright, welcome back to the Survival and Basic Badass Podcast, Kevin and Chuck.

[00:00:48] Today, well, we're going to talk about conspiracy theories. I guess one of the things that

[00:00:54] always concerns me, because there's a lot of things that concern me. I have concerns.

[00:01:01] One of the things that always concerns me is, you know, people basically they think of

[00:01:09] preppers and people who are leery of their government, people who think that the government

[00:01:14] can have ulterior motives when they want to take away the second amendment and when

[00:01:19] they come after your freedom of speech or when they pass things like the Patriot Act.

[00:01:25] The real problem, the government to its people, people are like, oh no, that's not true.

[00:01:35] You're crazy. You're just looking for problems. You're just paranoid. Put your tin foil hat

[00:01:43] back on and go back in the closet, you know? And that's kind of the world we live in.

[00:01:50] And that's a little concerning. So I thought how cool would it be if we kind of dug down

[00:01:57] in times where people had really crazy far out, hey these things are going on. And then

[00:02:04] it turned out that they actually were and we can prove it. And it turns out there's more

[00:02:10] of these stories than you think there are. And that's I guess what's so concerning.

[00:02:17] Because so often we're being lied to and then it's funny because when they get exposed

[00:02:24] you're like, well we all knew that. I mean, say in that for years. Well, though we're

[00:02:29] crazy, right? Yeah. Right, right. No, it's a, that's the big thing is that you expose

[00:02:37] these conspiracy theories turns out, oh yeah, it turns out they are fucked up and they

[00:02:42] were doing fucked up shit. But nothing ever happens. There's no like consequences to

[00:02:46] these actions. You know what I mean? Nobody goes to jail. Nobody you know, get even

[00:02:51] gets fines for most of this stuff. They just go on with their life and everybody's cool

[00:02:56] with it for some reason. Yeah. So I don't know. All right. Let's jump right in. One

[00:03:04] of the big ones that I found with shocking was I saw a story about bear, bear pharmaceuticals

[00:03:11] and they make like aspirin and you know all that. I actually knew a guy used to work for

[00:03:17] bear and he invented the like surgery pre made kits where if you were doing stitches, there's

[00:03:25] like a little packet that sealed that you could crack it open and it had everything

[00:03:29] you needed for that job and ended up making the company a lot of money was kind of like

[00:03:34] animal kinds of promotions and bonuses and whatever. I don't know to me, it didn't seem

[00:03:40] like it's one of those things that they seem obvious but nobody's doing it and then you

[00:03:45] can I don't know. I thought it was kind of neat. So anyway, turns out there were some letters

[00:03:51] that came to light of basically the CEO of bear back in the 30s messaging Hitler's government

[00:04:01] there with like Girmals and stuff and was hey, you know, we got all those chews that you sent

[00:04:08] us and they were all in great health and whatever and we did our testing and you know, they're

[00:04:16] all dead but it was really helpful and it'd be great if you could send some more over. That's

[00:04:22] like man and you're like yeah, this is a company whose foundation wasn't exactly you know

[00:04:27] as solid as maybe it should be and it's funny because we go after people for their past

[00:04:33] now that's the way we do things like obviously nobody at that company now unless like Soros

[00:04:39] works there. Nobody's still alive right from back in the day but you know and I'm not the guy

[00:04:48] who's like yeah, you know your great grandparents did something fucked up, you're in trouble now

[00:04:52] but let's bring that forward a little bit to the 80s. Same company bear right they're making blood

[00:05:02] clotting agents and they ended up hiring infected people because people with AIDS actually and STDs.

[00:05:13] I guess they were lower budget like you could get more or they were working with them to help

[00:05:22] I don't know what really the logic was but they hired a lot of people who were infected with AIDS

[00:05:28] to be working on this stuff and so they were making drugs and they ended up getting contaminated.

[00:05:34] I don't know how somebody got cut on the line or you know who knows what I don't know what happened

[00:05:40] but what I do know and this is actually a fact and if you google some news stories,

[00:05:44] you will see it all day long it's ridiculous but they contaminated the medication with the AIDS virus.

[00:05:54] They the company knew about it and said you know what we'll just send the contaminated stuff

[00:06:01] to South America and to Japan because whatever they're not Americans so it's not like it matters

[00:06:10] and they infected 20,000 people with AIDS and they knew before they knew they were going to.

[00:06:17] They were like it's like those recalls like oh we know our cars gonna blow up but you know it's

[00:06:23] too expensive to recall them all let's just see what happens. Yeah the lawsuits will be less

[00:06:27] expensive than the recall so and they somehow let that under the rug like I don't know how you can

[00:06:34] still stand as a company with something like that and nothing really came about of it but I don't

[00:06:40] know so that's number one of my big like kind of cover-ups that we ignore like you know I'm

[00:06:47] in a safe thing IBM right was one of the companies that had that whole you know number stencil on

[00:06:53] on the Jewish people in the concentration camp. That was IBM you know who came up with that

[00:06:59] system of how to do it and you know we'll track it all and yeah but anyway what do you got Kevin

[00:07:05] you got one for us? Yeah let's talk about Project Mockingbird. Now this is one of the older ones

[00:07:11] too this is uh 60s and 70s. Operation Mockingbird was a CIA operation now you see a lot of this

[00:07:19] in these conspiracies that turn out to be true is the CIA is involved in them right.

[00:07:25] CIA operation spied on members of Washington Press Corps in 1963, 72 and 73 paid journalists

[00:07:33] to publish CIA propaganda. They were wiretapping their phones. It was green light by the attorney

[00:07:43] general and secretary of defense and the director of defense intelligence agency. Everybody said

[00:07:50] no they're not they're not doing that. That would be ridiculous. Yeah turns out they were doing that

[00:07:55] was uncovered by the church committee and yeah they were black male and people and and you know

[00:08:01] basically tapping their phones recording the conversations and using that to blackmail them

[00:08:05] to publish stories that either were not true or just were barely true and pushed the line

[00:08:13] in the direction that they wanted it to go. Right and this is back in the day and that

[00:08:18] that we know about right that they were doing it and they said uh there were over 400 different

[00:08:24] news broadcasters that they know were specifically blackmailed or bribed. That's kind of shady

[00:08:32] you know like man and then we look at our media now you know they always you see these clips on

[00:08:39] occasion where everybody has the exact wording of what they say. You know they all report a story

[00:08:45] and it's all like you know fake news exactly. We all say fake news or whatever right and you'll

[00:08:51] fake news is like a standard go-to now like they teach you that in reporter school or whatever but

[00:08:57] you know but it's unbelievable how it goes. They get these lines and you can see that you can see

[00:09:03] the shit. Do you remember a couple of weeks ago was it last week that Biden gave his state of

[00:09:10] the union speech and the quote that you saw over and over again was fiery speech and like five

[00:09:20] different news news agencies all said the exact same thing. That's how you describe a speech

[00:09:25] in normal conversation all the time so I see how they could stumble on to that. They can

[00:09:30] accidentally all say the exact same thing. Yeah, I mean you know that that's pretty typical but

[00:09:36] very I got another one now this one this one's kind of crazy it's called operation and this is

[00:09:42] the real name operation midnight climax again it comes it's brought to you by the CIA. Now

[00:09:51] operation midnight climax this is a good one it's they paid sex workers to bring gentleman callers

[00:10:01] back to a hotel room and they would drug them with LSD and then the CIA would come in

[00:10:09] and interrogate them to see if they could get people to kind of loosen up their senses

[00:10:16] and see how accurate the information would be if they you know drilled down on you know quest

[00:10:23] being an interrogating to see if that was a beneficial tool. These were just like random guys

[00:10:28] now I guess they're criminals because they're paying sex workers whatever but we're like hey let's

[00:10:34] just drug them with LSD and which we know has long-term consequences of you know how it can affect

[00:10:42] you in your body and who knows they were like they're looking for like a truth serum is what

[00:10:48] they're after and LSD isn't that but they thought it could be and you don't know and tell you

[00:10:54] try Kevin that's right that's right yeah I guess the prostitutes got paid twice is what

[00:11:00] has lowered says and that's not wrong all right what do you got anything let's talk about the

[00:11:06] let's talk about the golf atonkin that was a conspiracy theory for a long time it was like

[00:11:11] bullshit you know what I mean turns out the USS Maddox was providing support for North

[00:11:16] uh South Vietnamese mini South Vietnamese attacks on uh North Vietnamese islands um

[00:11:24] USS Maddox opened fire and what later claimed were several North Vietnamese vessels

[00:11:34] the skirmish deepened American involvement in the Vietnam war leading to death of tens of

[00:11:38] thousands of U.S soldiers and hundreds of thousands of citizens it turned out that the Tardgate

[00:11:43] the Maddox fired on they weren't there was nothing there it wasn't really a thing uh Johnson

[00:11:51] president Johnson claimed that the North Vietnamese fired first uh but they didn't because they

[00:11:57] weren't there now and so we used that to as a reason to extend the Vietnam war and uh you know

[00:12:05] basically went to went to war for no legitimate reason um how about how about uh secret the secret

[00:12:19] gathering of world elites in California inside the state of the world be talking about Bohemian

[00:12:25] growth that's right and the big uh which is named uh Olmeck the the the algod right so that was

[00:12:34] uh that was a thing that actually came from the original Illuminati which was a real organization

[00:12:42] and it was from Bohemia not California but he made the country that doesn't exist anymore okay um

[00:12:50] and uh yeah they they go over there and uh and i guess it's to um celebrate their

[00:13:00] their love of theater which i love it sounds like bullshit

[00:13:04] not love the next year i guess some of that yeah exactly some of the uh some of the people that went

[00:13:10] there people like uh um Ronald Reagan before he was president Richard Nixon before he was

[00:13:17] president like kind of like you know people that that might end up being powerful and then

[00:13:22] he went up process if he was there he got like these stolen bones yeah yep yep and it's actually

[00:13:28] where the idea for the uh first atomic atomic bomb was sketched out oh so they they got that all

[00:13:36] planned together now Richard Nixon uh did actually talk about it they recorded him on or he

[00:13:42] recorded himself on tape and the tapes later got out right uh he said he did a lot of recording

[00:13:48] that maybe he shouldn't have yeah i mean i know it should have been private conversation i feel like

[00:13:53] if i'm president i'm gonna be like you know what i know there's recorders in the White House and we

[00:13:58] try you know in the oval office and we try and keep that whatever let's just not do that yeah

[00:14:04] let's just that's a no yes so uh this is a quote from Richard Nixon the Bohemian Grove which

[00:14:11] i attended from time to time sure it is the most faggy god damn thing you ever can imagine

[00:14:18] got me Richard Nixon always had a way with words he did have a way with words

[00:14:23] but i i feel like in modern society we might not let tricky dick uh you know run out and talk like

[00:14:30] he talks because we're a lot more civilized now we don't really talk like that no no no no

[00:14:37] some good ideas did come out of the 90s and and i know he was a little bit earlier back late 70s

[00:14:44] and whatever but we had some good ideas back in the day and i can tell you one of them or did

[00:14:49] you have more on that in my cut now you're good all right we had the gay bomb now you're thinking

[00:14:58] well like what could be a gay bomb how awesome is that well let me tell you the Ohio Air Force

[00:15:06] laboratory proposed in the the 1994 Pentagon budget for seventy seven point five million

[00:15:16] to build a non-lethal gay bomb weapon that would encourage enemies to make love not war

[00:15:26] the weapon would use strong afrodigiax to make enemy troops so sexually attracted to each other

[00:15:35] that they just stop fighting and just start making love and i don't know what else what's more awesome

[00:15:43] and more politically correct than that Kevin i mean you're embracing diversity with that one

[00:15:49] well you know i know that in like stressful situations it's got to be a strong afrodigiax because

[00:15:56] i feel like if somebody is shooting at me the last thing i'd be thinking about his second dick you know

[00:16:03] i mean like i don't know i don't know how that sex because you know you have all that passion and

[00:16:10] energy and then you got to kind of have an outlet for it that that's an option i mean i'm just saying

[00:16:16] these are uh you know things on the table now i it's questionable of whether the money ever got

[00:16:24] approved to even try and move forward however they dismiss it like well yes somebody put that idea

[00:16:31] out there but we just were like no that wasn't really the case like they actually had meetings and

[00:16:36] talked about it and we're like this is something we could do and and i think it's kind of a way of like

[00:16:44] doubly humiliating the enemy you know yeah well there's also experiments with with uh what are they

[00:16:55] i don't know if they actually called that but it was uh the conspiracy theory is is uh

[00:16:59] gator there are like uh doing research on whether they could tell if somebody was gay so what they did

[00:17:05] was they uh brought thousands thousands of uh government workers in and showed them pictures of uh

[00:17:13] of erotic erotic male pictures i guess is how you would how you would say that

[00:17:20] and they measured people's uh pupils and if they dilated when they saw these like naked dudes

[00:17:27] then gay and the firm so like uh you know over a thousand people got fired because they're

[00:17:33] people actually when they saw a picture of a naked they called that gay dark they really did

[00:17:38] the they were working on that they were hard on like yeah we're gonna well you see the play on

[00:17:42] words there you they were they were working on that to you know make it a thing i don't

[00:17:50] it's ugly out there there's a lot of i um i don't know i just yeah um so next one i got

[00:18:01] and this this one's little disturbing um the the tuss kooky study have you heard of this

[00:18:08] now this is back in the day and and everyone's like well that's a long time ago you know we

[00:18:13] we did a lot of crazy things but basically they offered people uh and of course is you know mostly

[00:18:21] african-american community free health care and then they intentionally gave the people syphilis

[00:18:28] which is not a fun disease and now mind you it's something that can be treated with penicillin

[00:18:35] we had penicillin at the time we knew we could treat it with penicillin and they just didn't do

[00:18:41] anything to treat the people to just see what would happen because you know it's your government

[00:18:47] looking out for you well you don't know right when you get a give disease to a when a when a person

[00:18:54] is infected with a disease it usually goes the same way with whatever people use but you're not sure

[00:19:00] about that right like how do you know that black people are gonna gonna get holes in their brain

[00:19:05] like white people you know you don't know tell us you intentionally infect them and just wait

[00:19:10] and see what happens turns out that people are people in disease effect people the same way

[00:19:15] but whatever you can assume whatever fuck those people right not assume we're all the same inside

[00:19:20] Evan i have my own set of feelings yeah and yeah yeah i guess that's awfully

[00:19:29] good to say something i'm style that back yeah so that's uh so that's uh incredibly fucked up

[00:19:37] to make people sick and kill them with that terrible disease just to see what happens because

[00:19:43] i don't know you have fucking money to spend and we want to want to just check everything out

[00:19:49] fuck those people i guess right i'm a fucked up person i guess uh all right what do you got

[00:19:59] how about this one um there's a conspiracy theory that the Dalai Lama is actually a CIA agent

[00:20:09] kind of like double oh yeah so the Dalai Lama's yeah the Dalai Lama whatever i don't know

[00:20:17] but uh the Dalai Lama's is uh somewhat anti-communist he's debatting the communist

[00:20:25] Chinese party i don't know if you saw the comments after our china episode a couple of

[00:20:30] weeks ago nope oh was that trying to just mind throw this anybody and it's just looking out for

[00:20:35] their people and growing their economy we did yeah we got a lot of hate from that one didn't we

[00:20:40] a lot of people a lot of blowback but i don't know if it was real people you know what i mean i think

[00:20:45] that was uh propaganda people working on our Facebook i mean i mean alley llama to bet hate's communism

[00:20:52] go on yep so that was like actually like a pretty fucking great uh PR for for this yeah yeah the

[00:21:03] Dalai Lama had to leave the country because they whatever china like picked their own Dalai Lama

[00:21:09] because apparently they don't understand how Buddhism works and uh everything went on

[00:21:15] the Dalai Lama though in uh uh boe is out of that country was was still talking about this

[00:21:23] but he didn't have any money so the CIA started paying him an annual stipend of like $100,000

[00:21:31] thousand dollars just to now i'm no Dalai Lama but i am anti-communist oh but wait the government's

[00:21:39] kind of going full circle on that now so now we're trying to push got all right yeah you got to

[00:21:46] go the other way now chuck if you want to get paid you can't be anti-communist you gotta go

[00:21:51] together that's a no go we we've become full circle all right that helpful

[00:21:58] you know why your anti-communist because you believe in the Dalai Lama it totally back

[00:22:04] you fell for the propaganda i don't want to dig too deep into this one because it's a whole show

[00:22:10] on its own but uh do you do you remember a character uh came to pass uh Edward Snowden

[00:22:18] oh yep yep see yes the reason i say that because i assume nobody remembers who he is because

[00:22:27] what the hell we just were like uh yeah that shit doesn't matter so obviously it was just a blip

[00:22:33] on the radar that just came and went because nobody seemed to give a shit um it turns out

[00:22:40] nobody went to jail for that they tried to put him in jail that was a thing

[00:22:44] well yeah well yeah but it turns out for a long time you guys have probably never heard this

[00:22:49] and heard that it's a conspiracy but people would say hey you know your phones are listening

[00:22:56] and uh you know the government is tracking all your information and so much more than the

[00:23:01] Snowden leaks like now they are buying and getting information from Apple and Facebook and Tiktok

[00:23:08] and i mean Snowden touched on that and that it was everywhere but it's like just way expanded

[00:23:14] i think really what happened is after they realized that nobody gave a shit if they were like

[00:23:21] came on you know and now it's one of those things oh that's old news oh the government spying

[00:23:27] whatever they can listen what am i doing i think whoever came up with that uh the idea that

[00:23:34] well if you have nothing to hide then it doesn't matter whoever came up with that right got the

[00:23:41] fullness of the year i feel like everybody in government every senator and congressman when

[00:23:48] they're on the floor should be completely naked that's not gonna hide you know what i mean how do

[00:23:53] we know they're not smuggling a bomb in their underwear i mean that's already happened once you

[00:23:56] know some dude did that how do we know take your clothes off if you don't have anything to hide why

[00:24:01] are you wearing clothes it's disgusting you know what i mean this this behavior by the by our

[00:24:06] our senators and congressman you know god was walking around wearing a naked back in the day right

[00:24:11] and then all of a sudden yeah yeah you're hiding yourself you know i see what you did there

[00:24:18] uh that's it i just so it turns out the government is listening the government is watching now

[00:24:24] you're saying well well it's not possible because there's only so many government people and

[00:24:29] there's only so many other people and they can't actually listen to everything i say and

[00:24:33] well let me let me explain how AI and things work right so it turns out they record and collect all

[00:24:40] the information and then when they want to know something about Chuck Yeager they're like hey

[00:24:46] hey you know what let me see what this guy said and what does he ever said about China

[00:24:52] oh oh shit oh dear and they're like the yeah and that's you know i have them and then they're

[00:25:02] like well what does he ever said about the ATF and then they're like oh shit you know we better

[00:25:09] sense the agent so over right this is the kind of thing and then some people i mean you would think

[00:25:17] oh Chuck so stupid he puts it on this podcast and puts all his information out there but you know

[00:25:23] i'm kind of come to the conclusion it's all out there anyway you're on Facebook TikTok

[00:25:29] everywhere it doesn't matter oh you talked in your bedroom and your wife it's on there they got you

[00:25:35] so yeah remember we're gonna it used to be yeah it used to be gotta be careful what we're saying

[00:25:43] on the phone because the government might be wiretapping us now it's like hey wiretap which

[00:25:47] is a good recipe for brownies i had to buy a new washer the other day and they're like oh this

[00:25:53] washer comes with Alexa and i'm like why does my washing machine need Alexa but she's listening uh-huh

[00:26:02] i didn't buy that washer if that's what you were wondering but just you didn't well the reviews were

[00:26:07] horrible that and i'm not paying 900 bucks for a freaking washer because i'm too cheap and you know

[00:26:13] whatever but anyway all right so moving right along keep it the flow that's what i got is flow

[00:26:21] have you ever heard that all right so we all know that the US dollar is the world's reserve currency

[00:26:29] right and that's what people trade in and whatever and obviously that's quickly losing favor

[00:26:35] and and starting to slip a little bit and i got to say it's gonna be bad when it does

[00:26:41] and we can talk about the brick the bricks nations and and how their stuff but really

[00:26:48] when any whenever a government seems to kind of say hey you know we're gonna go on the gold standard

[00:26:57] and sell oil for gold or you know a new way right the bricks is the same idea right a commodity-based

[00:27:05] thing and so anyway so somebody actually tried to do that um a lot of people tried to do it

[00:27:13] somebody tried to do it and i have proof and can lay it out right here for you that's that's

[00:27:18] the difference turns out there was this guy and his name is Gaddafi and Gaddafi tried now we

[00:27:30] paint him as a really horrible guy and honestly i don't really know he i don't know what's

[00:27:36] propaganda and what's not i do know that he is like a hard-wine guy he's not somebody who you

[00:27:43] cross i do know that that's a real thing but not as all his ideas were exactly horrible and he

[00:27:53] wasn't just out like messing with people like there's way crazier out there right he was not

[00:28:01] and he had that herm he's the one with the herm although like the 30 hot chick bodyguards

[00:28:06] that roll in the New York City right and you're like what what's going on here and his women were

[00:28:12] you know met you know crazy killers whatever

[00:28:17] so i mean he didn't have some things going but i know that kind of left the distaste

[00:28:21] so anyway it turns out he wasn't just the head of what is it Libya he was the head of the

[00:28:30] African North African Union and what he did was he suggested you know what let's get away from

[00:28:40] the manipulated us dollar let's make a gold backed denar would be the form of currency and

[00:28:49] you know they came up with their whole thing and he uh he created he was doing all kinds of things

[00:28:57] for Africa all right so he made something called the man made river and this man made river was

[00:29:05] this pipeline that was going to be built in four different phases and it was 4,000 miles long

[00:29:14] that's long when it when it was completed it was going to be 4,000 miles all right so

[00:29:20] he set it up and it basically comprised of 1300 wells that at the time in phase two

[00:29:30] because that he only got through phase three and then we took it out but 1300 wells was producing

[00:29:37] 3 million gallons a day and they were delivering it you know basically all over the northern end of

[00:29:44] Africa and by the time they got to phase four they were planning that it was going to be six and a

[00:29:50] half million gallons so check this out we decide oh good off he's a bad guy he's probably why

[00:29:56] everything's bad we went and we bombed the pipeline bringing water all over Africa yeah that's

[00:30:06] the pipeline water to we bombed water star building that actually made the pipes and the new sections

[00:30:16] and we decimated that because we were like oh he's probably hiding missiles in that building

[00:30:23] because you know I mean that could be right we didn't go look for like weapons of mass destruction

[00:30:30] inside the building after we just bombed it and we're like solved it they didn't send in any

[00:30:36] troops to probably get to the bottom of it and we made sure to like kill that guy and make sure

[00:30:44] that everybody saw that that's not a good way to go we took his gold guns and we're like no

[00:30:49] did you ever see that interview with Hillary Clinton yes she was the secretary of state

[00:30:57] and then I have teeth she said yeah she said she has this crazy video and you can look it up on

[00:31:04] YouTube because it's absolutely insane but she says something like we came we saw he died and

[00:31:11] then she had this like I was going to pull it up I didn't get a chance but so remember there

[00:31:19] were those Hillary email leaks that came out from like WikiLeaks well you can search this out I

[00:31:26] I'm not making this up Hillary's emails from April 2nd 2011 now her email said Gaddafi's

[00:31:34] government holds 143 tons of gold and a similar amount in silver this gold was accumulated

[00:31:43] prior to the current rebellion and was intended to be used to establish a pan-African currency

[00:31:50] based on the Libyan gold denar this plan is designed this is word for word this plan is designed

[00:31:58] to provide the francophone African countries in alternative to the French CFA or the French

[00:32:07] and that was in her email basically though France was driven by a desire to gain a greater share

[00:32:17] or this is actually her again in an interview after France is driven by a desire to gain a

[00:32:23] greater share of Libyan oil production increase the French presence in North Africa and stop

[00:32:30] Gaddafi from taking over French control in Africa so all this was said and this I would say was

[00:32:37] really our motivation for going after Gaddafi now I always wondered why the French were so

[00:32:46] interested in bombing Gaddafi because it was the United States and France think so what it is

[00:32:51] is yeah France actually has a lot of influence in North African countries and a lot of control

[00:32:59] and they actually stood to lose a lot if it went away so Hillary was writing emails saying hey you

[00:33:07] guys need to get on board with this because we can kind of split up Libya and that's kind of

[00:33:14] fucked up right I don't know if you guys realize but I mean we're really do some shady shit

[00:33:20] and then it's like wait you know it's all because of Trump that the rest of the world hates us

[00:33:25] that's why they think we're so evil and that may be but it turns out it's not just the

[00:33:33] Republicans doing some shady shit out there yeah they didn't and Trump was like hey you know I'm

[00:33:40] gonna go crazy and mess with people because that's fun like Trump's been messing with people since

[00:33:45] the way back I don't know if you like he has interviews and stuff where he's like cool happy friendly

[00:33:50] guy and then he has interviews like if you're his enemy it's not good for you

[00:33:58] no no that's that's kind of his thing now right if you love him if you love you if you hate him

[00:34:04] he's gonna fuck you up hey you know he's gonna ruin your life he has passion can you not

[00:34:10] embrace passion heaven he's a passionate man there you go all right I get on board with that

[00:34:17] celebrate passion all right yeah uh so fun fun side note though um so there's a big rebellion

[00:34:29] US's bombing Libya Gaddafi's on the run people in Libya not a huge fan of him turns out um

[00:34:38] so they were uh they were tracking them down chasing them you banding his vehicle because it broke down

[00:34:45] and him in his bodyguard like ran out into the fucking desert like hidden in a ditch in a

[00:34:51] covert and guys found the vehicle they started looking for him and he finally came out and they

[00:34:58] grabbed his ass and he's like wait a minute don't you know who I am and yeah so they uh he uh got

[00:35:04] foot to death with the knife so he is the kind of the best looking character like you don't see

[00:35:09] Gaddafi and be like who's that yeah right oh maybe that's somebody else yeah you can have a look

[00:35:16] about him all right now I have one more uh do you have any more you want to hit before it I kind of

[00:35:23] wanted to close with with mine but all right let's hear all right yeah I got one more this

[00:35:29] this is a crazy one too this is uh tell me this is um interesting um so there's a conspiracy theory

[00:35:36] that the government was stealing dead baits to do experiments on them yeah wasn't a hundred percent

[00:35:43] accurate they were stealing parts of dead bait totally different the the government was stealing

[00:35:49] parts of recently dead babies and children because they needed a uh young tissue to do radiation

[00:35:57] testing more than 15 1500 kids they stole body parts from they didn't there was no like compensation

[00:36:07] there was no like you know what I mean like um we need we need part of your kids they were like

[00:36:13] just taking limbs like chopping off a little baby leg and then bringing it back so uh nobody found

[00:36:19] out about that until later on and if you ever had a baby that died maybe you're helping the government

[00:36:26] with radiation testing who knows Kevin that's the story knows I mean maybe I don't know I feel like

[00:36:34] that's pretty fucked up if if you have a baby or a child that dies young maybe you don't really

[00:36:39] need the government stealing body parts from your baby before it's buried but whatever they did

[00:36:43] it anyway so I mean I guess that's just disturbing you uh I don't even oh I didn't do it I'm not

[00:36:53] the one that did it coming after our children um a lot of people used to say that the schools

[00:37:01] were indoctrinating our children you've probably heard that especially like the crazy Christians

[00:37:07] were like you know we're worried about what they're saying are our kids and whatever and they're

[00:37:12] trying to shape them in the little communists or good employees working for their slave masters

[00:37:19] uh there were some quotes from Rockefeller about how he was going to uh kind of ruin our country by

[00:37:26] uh and that's why he gave all the money to education uh made sure that the schools were teaching

[00:37:32] about making good little employee slaves and yeah they were uh uh yeah I mean how are you going

[00:37:40] to convince people to go from being like farmers and and hunters and outdoorsmen to like sitting

[00:37:46] in a factory for ten or twelve hours how do you tell you to throw people to do that?

[00:37:50] You're fishing and loving every day to uh you know hey you know what if you sat in this textile mill

[00:37:57] things would be better now I have seen the Waldoons and you know I'm not really sure everything

[00:38:03] was always great because sometimes like the the little vagrants had come sleep in your barn or

[00:38:09] you know things weren't always rainbows and sunshine but I can't be sure that we live in a better world

[00:38:17] now so I do have an interview and and you guys might know this guy from baby snakes with the

[00:38:23] titties and beer you just just work with me you'll see it all right schools train people to

[00:38:31] be ignorant with style they give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus

[00:38:39] American schools do not equip you to deal with things like the logic they don't give you the

[00:38:44] criteria by which to judge between good and bad in any medium or format and they prepare you

[00:38:53] to be a usable victim for a military industrial complex that needs manpower as long as you're just

[00:39:00] smart enough to do a job and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you you're going to be all right

[00:39:06] but if you go beyond that you're going to have these grave doubts that give you stomach problems

[00:39:12] headaches make you want to go out and do something else so I believe that schools

[00:39:17] mechanically and very specifically try and breed out any hint of creative thought

[00:39:23] and the kids that are coming um I that was considered crazy at the time Kevin uh

[00:39:30] yeah for example uh yeah what a one of the I think one of the best spokesman for uh

[00:39:37] freedom of speech this country has ever had I think he's uh you know not can widely

[00:39:44] consider to be an American hero but if I had to listen to him he always had like intelligent

[00:39:50] debate and discussion he's definitely a smart guy you know he brought stuff to the table

[00:39:57] I'm not saying I'm all in on frags app although I kind of the more I was thinking about it

[00:40:02] I'm wondering if my corrupted childhood kind of came from you know growing up near woodstock

[00:40:08] and everybody was like zappa fans and you know eat it's kind of now you're saying well chuck

[00:40:17] yeah but you haven't delivered any evidence that the schools have been you know corrupted and

[00:40:25] I would say did you see the last like five elections and do you see what we swallow and accept in

[00:40:33] modern day society have you ever heard Mike grow to an interview um I think all these things

[00:40:40] would tell you that maybe our schools are kind of fucked up or schools are a shady job yeah

[00:40:47] then I would tell you and I don't know I've been seeing this statistic around on the inner web

[00:40:53] so I don't even know if it's true but I know that it's at least going in this direction whether it's

[00:40:59] true 100% or true 70% but it turns out 30% of kids in elementary school now think they're transgender

[00:41:10] what the hell is going on with America we can't even teach our kids freaking how to check their

[00:41:17] parts and see what's going on we're all confused out there we're telling them that they're born

[00:41:24] with options well yeah you can you can be somebody who doesn't have an arm if we cut it off I mean

[00:41:30] that that's an option for you well yes but it's not really logical or sane I would say

[00:41:39] I know a horrible person yeah I don't know and it's fair to uh to you know say try talking

[00:41:49] your kids and ask them what they're learning that's a valid valid statement and uh I talk to my

[00:41:56] kid when he was in grade school and I remember his teacher he was telling me his teacher was talking

[00:42:03] about some racist speech that had been going on and how we need to regulate speech and freedom

[00:42:10] of speech isn't a great idea we need somebody in charge to like make sure that people are saying

[00:42:15] the right things right and my kid tried to argue with him but I mean how do you how do you

[00:42:22] how does a 10-year-old really argue logically that you should support people it's right to say racist

[00:42:27] shit I mean it's not really it's not an easy argument to make it's just a stupid argument to make

[00:42:33] against it you know what I mean so I mean you know as long as uh as long as you stay in line do

[00:42:41] what you're told to do behave yourself and don't say anything you're not supposed to say everything

[00:42:46] is gonna work out for you follow the rules Kevin it's time that we follow the rules and the sooner

[00:42:53] you accept that the better the world's gonna be so that's what I got I don't know to me the schools

[00:43:00] might be trying to corrupt your kids a little bit you might want to pay attention to that I know

[00:43:05] homeschool is less and less of an option um I know we we talk about how you hate poor people somehow

[00:43:13] if you want these uh school vouchers and school choice if you want that I'm not really sure

[00:43:20] how that works because it seems like the poor people could also utilize these school vouchers

[00:43:26] and school choice but get if you think about some of the like the best private schools in the country

[00:43:35] like the tuition and they require it's it can be expensive very expensive like if you're not

[00:43:40] wealthy you can't go to those private schools wait however your school is probably spending about

[00:43:47] $35,000 per year on educating your child which if you got that money to spend wherever you want

[00:43:54] yes public schools would be absolutely if you could vote with your daughter and it's not even your

[00:43:59] dollars it's you know it turns out now Kevin not everybody's a fancy New Yorker with your 35

[00:44:06] thousand dollars a kid some of us in the Southland are probably like yeah 20 dollars again or something

[00:44:13] you know well I say that because I was under under shooting what we spend here uh the next town

[00:44:20] over uh spending for that thousand dollars per child per year which probably not the same in Alabama

[00:44:27] and Mississippi and and some other places but yeah you know now that's a crazy world but yeah turns out

[00:44:33] the government might be kind of uh you know trying to influence your kids in school we won't even

[00:44:39] talk we could do a whole show on uh voting districts we could do a show on how they're protecting

[00:44:47] your borders there are so many conspiracies that it turns out you're not crazy the government's just

[00:44:55] now you're saying well Chuck all right my concern is what does this have to do with survival and prepping

[00:45:02] well I guess what it really comes down to and and why I kind of wanted to get into this is

[00:45:09] maybe you should look with a cautious eye when the government tells you things

[00:45:15] maybe we should assume that not everything is exactly true and on the up and up and maybe we should

[00:45:21] do a little bit of our own research and a little bit of our own thinking to kind of make sure

[00:45:27] that we're on the right path and doing things you know in a logical way and and reasonable because

[00:45:33] man we get so caught up just trying to survive that you end up you know losing sight of everything going

[00:45:41] on and you know you you just get overwhelmed and you're like I just want to stay on my property

[00:45:48] and never go out you know ever since kind of mall started dying in COVID nobody kind of wants to

[00:45:54] leave the house and all you know it's like we go to work we go home and we realized I think during

[00:45:59] COVID that maybe being home is better than being out with other people and it turns out you can save

[00:46:06] money doing it that way too so I don't know but the bottom line is make sure you're paying attention

[00:46:13] and don't just accept everything you hear you know do some research you doubt me on any of the

[00:46:19] things we talk about or whatever give it a Google search and start digging down a little bit

[00:46:24] you know maybe don't just do Google fact check or snopes or whatever you know another one that

[00:46:30] didn't quite make it into this episode I kind of came across it too late is you know people

[00:46:36] shorting stocks before September 11th 2001 they were shorting airline stocks

[00:46:41] that's kind of a concerning what the hell right doing research there were news stories like Ted

[00:46:49] Coppel and whatnot I don't was a Ted Olinable um they I don't know the reporter guys I'm not as slick

[00:46:55] as I should be but I don't know I'm just saying pay attention do some research search things out on

[00:47:01] your own think for yourself and you know our job here is to give you ideas in new directions to

[00:47:08] think about that's how I see my job I don't know you take it as you want it but anyway stick around

[00:47:15] we'll try and do an after show and I would say you guys appreciate it you could check us out on

[00:47:22] patreon.com slant prepping badass or you could also email questions and concerns to prepping

[00:47:30] badass at gmail.com otherwise stay safe and we will talk to you guys next week
