RON We are here you with The Canary in the Cage and this is Ron Morgan and my co-host
DAVE: Dave Havlicek RON: and I think we have congratulations in order right now because I saw when I went
to file because we both are going to run for office and I saw Dave's name on the TV.
DAVE: Really?
RON: Yes.
RON: Yeah, you're famous under Congress.
We're going to send Dave here to Congress.
So we got to start a campaign, send Dave to Congress.
That's what we got to do.
DAVE: I'm not taking donations, but if you form a PAC, I have nothing to do with that.
RON: Yeah, I don't do donations either because the paperwork is just too much.
And I'm running for Assembly District 5.
So we'll see.
Well, because I think it's time we send the blue collar workers to the politics to become
politicians.
DAVE: Well, I don't know if I'm a blue collar worker.
RON: You know me, though.
I'll I'll I'll rep for you.
DAVE: Well, I'm not going to go there to work.
I'm going to go there to kick some ass.
RON: Well I would go there to retire.
Fuck is that the best retirement place?
DAVE: Of course you just buy stock, buy the stocks.
RON: No, no, go to Congress and retire.
You know, like literally like just freak out and stroke out.
DAVE: But you can you can make 100K a year at Congress or you can be at Congress and buy all the
insider stocks.
RON: Yeah, follow Nancy Pelosi's stock tips.
DAVE: Trillionaire.
RON: Yeah, our government's going really good right now.
So I do want to talk about something that came up last week because well, first of all,
I need to follow some instructions I've kind of given my whole life and that is to focus
on stuff because I kind of go all over the place.
If you guys haven't noticed yet, DAVE: no RON: we're only you're only an hour into knowing me.
So we'll have to see if I can actually get that focusing done.
DAVE: Try adderall.
RON: You know, I won't do it because DAVE: There we go!
RON: I don't take prescription medication, but there are so many people that take that.
DAVE: Oh, yeah.
RON: And they say it really helps.
Like a lot of stand up comedy comics are using it.
No, I want to talk about the new arrivals in this country.
There was some breaking news this week that brought this back in the limelight.
So we've had three phases.
Well, with the process of third phase right now, we had the families coming in and they're
like, oh, they're for voter replacement.
You know, we're going to replace those voters because us people, the other Americans,
we know the politicians are full of shit.
So they got to bring in people that don't understand that they'll still vote for.
I'm if I'm 50/50 on that, I am a little concerned though, because I think I brought
up is Abbott complicit with this because.
It's not necessarily the votes they can cast.
It's when we do a census, we count illegals.
DAVE: Right.
RON: And the illegals bump up the numbers in these blue cities and that gives us more reps
in the house for the Democrat Party.
DAVE: Right.
RON: So they really, they could be onto something there.
I don't know.
We're just going to see how it works out.
And then we had the we now, I guess we're still in the middle of this one with the
soldier age, the men coming across the border to kill us apparently.
I'm not really sure about this one.
I'm kind of going back and forth.
DAVE: There was that rapist that Joe Biden apologized to
RON: Oh dear God, he said it illegal and now they demanded he apologized.
And then for a weird thing, the White House said, we're not apologizing.
But yet he went on TV and he's right.
He took it back.
DAVE: He doesn't apologize.
He regrets and takes it back.
RON: I should have said new visitor, but it's the new ones that are coming.
DAVE: We got a new one?
RON: Oh, yeah.
So we accepted the families with the kids.
Still don't know how to do all those kids, but we'll talk about that.
Now we have the soldiers coming in and a lot of them are coming from China,
from communist countries.
How do you leave a communist country without the approval of the?
DAVE: Well, you don't.
RON: So the Chinese people are crossing the border or well.
DAVE: So I know a lot of them escape like they flee, but that's not the military age males.
RON: OK, DAVE: so like women and children are definitely like sneaking the fuck out of there.
RON: Well, they got the rideshare app now.
I brought that up last week.
No, I talked about real quick, the Custom and Border Patrol.
DAVE: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, RON: Has an app, you can be anywhere in the world and we'll
send you a plane. What the fuck's going on?
So the new ones that you've heard about the new ones coming in now.
Oh, they're going to Florida.
DAVE: Yeah. RON: they're sitting in the cannibals. DAVE: Cannibals? RON: The cannibals.
So I've kind of been going back and forth on how to deal with this.
But the first thing I have to disclose is in Haiti, they've overthrown their government.
DAVE: Right. I heard about that.
RON: And the leader or the he pronounced himself the leader.
He's been known to be a cannibal.
His take a wild guess when his nickname DAVE: I already know that I know.
RON: Barbecue, he's like, no, no, no, my mom gave me that name.
DAVE: OK. RON: No, I don't think so, dude.
I think you're barbecuing people.
So yeah, they're sending in the cannibals because we didn't care about the families
coming in. We're like, military age, man, what are you going to do?
They're not they they're not going to do anything because we outnumber them and we
outgun them because we are good American people.
But now the cannibals and they're heading to Florida.
So I don't know.
I was trying to look this up today is is eating people in Florida.
Are they taste better because all the humidity down there?
DAVE: I don't know. I mean, there's tend to be old.
So they'd be tough and chewy.
RON: That's true.
See, I was kind of factoring that in.
But they their their skin's got to be more.
You say you come and eat us.
I mean, we're all dry and haggard.
DAVE: Oh, yeah, I don't I want to eat no no Las Vegans.
RON: You live, if you live in the desert, we're not eating people from the desert.
DAVE: But you got to go up to like Portland where they eat healthy.
RON: Oh, yeah, Portland.
We the best to eat people at.
Hey, barbecue, President barbecue.
You want to head to Portland and some good eating up there.
They actually do have really good food.
They're a great food city, great beer city.
Maybe they're great human eaten city.
I don't know.
DAVE: I have no problem with cannibalism as long as it's ethically sourced.
Ethically sourced.
Yeah, I mean, look, if you want to chop your arm off and fry it up,
like I don't give a shit.
RON: But we're eating somebody else.
DAVE: Yeah, I would do it.
RON: So what?
So if you had to.
So you're you're humans that you eat, do you prefer grain fed or meat fed?
DAVE: I don't know.
I mean, like I don't want, you know, these people that that fill up their food
stamps on junk food.
I mean, that's no good.
RON: Right.
Because I got preservatives.
DAVE: Yeah, preservatives.
You know, like when you eat a cow, you want to eat a cow that eats what a cow
supposed to eat, right?
Grass, RON: True DAVE: grains, grass, because because an animal tastes like what it eats.
RON: Garbage and garbage out.
DAVE: Garbage and garbage out.
RON: So yeah, no.
OK, so so Portland, DAVE: some of like vegan humans, like maybe occasional fish.
RON: Yeah, like the vegans might be like you might make a good dessert out of them.
There's nothing to be like, well, you know, because they're they're skinny
and they're wafie kind of stuff.
DAVE: Well, yeah, RON: sorry.
Don't attack me, vegans.
I know you're, you know, you might get tired after 10 minutes, but whatever.
Apparently, I'm not a vegan.
But actually, OK, so again, I don't focus very well.
OK, have you heard of a freegan?
DAVE: A freegan?
RON: Oh, yeah.
DAVE: No.
RON: So I knew a freegan.
DAVE: What's what's a freegan?
RON: You get all your food out of the dumpster.
DAVE: Oh, nice.
Yeah, I don't want to eat those people.
RON: No, no, no, especially this.
She was really fat.
Not not judging.
I'm fat, too.
As Twitter people know.
But and she was in and she showered once a month and she was into cuddle puddles.
Yeah, there's and she was a hugger in Chicago.
DAVE: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
RON: You haven't showered and we're going to hug.
Oh, I'm out.
But yeah, she was a freegan.
It was really bizarre.
We were we were how I found out.
DAVE: So wait a minute for a freegan.
Are you also a vegan?
RON: Yes. Yes.
DAVE: So like she finds a perfectly good steak in the trash, but she won't eat it.
RON: Oh, throw that away.
DAVE: Oh, my God.
RON: But she apparently dumpster dive at Whole Foods a lot.
And she said they know that I do this and I've got to sneak in.
I'm like, they know you're doing this and they don't want you doing this.
How many of those carrots were up someone's ass?
Because that's what I would have done.
And that's why my wife is I got patchouli as banned from my house.
Yeah, because when you mix body sweat and patchouli, it doesn't smell good.
DAVE: I don't get grossed out often, but come on, man.
I mean, I'm talking about eating people over here and you're grossing me out with this shit.
RON: Well, I mean, again, it's the focus of whole focus.
And then, oh, God, you know what a diva cup is? DAVE: A what? RON: A diva cup.
DAVE: No. RON: Again, I find out from this freegan because tampons are not ethically sourced,
are not good for the environment.
DAVE: OK RON: So you put a cup down there is a cup designed to catch all the blood
and then you wash it out.
But she but this particular girl was wondering, what if I put it?
Well, can I use a fertilizer on my tomatoes?
That's not me joking around.
She literally wanted to put it on her tomatoes, whatever.
So OK, let's try to focus on this.
Let's get back to the show.
DAVE: OK, in the news.
RON: Tik explain this TikTok thing.
DAVE: Yeah, so.
I've been looking around.
I read I read most of the bill.
They're trying to say China is a foreign company and they own this TikTok
which is influencing our children and interfering with elections and blah,
blah, blah, blah, blah.
So they so they write this bill and they pass it up and it passes
overwhelmingly with bipartisan support.
So you know, it's fucking terrible, right?
Like Massey was against it.
Gaetz was against it.
Marjorie Taylor Greene against it.
So like the.
30 percent sane people.
And I don't mean like the number 30 percent, but their brain is 30 percent sane.
They voted for it.
So it's it's probably really bad or they voted against it.
So it's probably really bad.
So when you go read this, you know, it's all legalese shit, right?
So it says like a foreign adversary
website or app or any shit like that is illegal unless they meet certain criteria
set forth in the bill.
So like, you know, if you're,
I don't even have an example, but
so so right off the bat, like and TikTok is named by by name.
So like they're referred to by name.
So so it says a foreign adversary controlled application means a website,
desktop app, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
owned by so and so Byte Dance, TikTok, a subsidiary or blah, blah, blah,
or a covered company that is controlled by a foreign adversary and is determined
by the president to present a significant threat to the National Security of the United States.
RON: Wait, wait, wait, wait, Joe Biden got to determine this.
DAVE: If Joe Biden says you present a national security threat, then you're covered under
this law. RON: Oh, do you know Joe Biden has a TikTok account, by the way?
DAVE: Yeah, I do. RON: OK.
DAVE: Even though it's banned on federal phones like.
RON: Yeah, that seems odd.
DAVE: Well, I think that's his personal TikTok account that he only uses on his
personal phone because you know Joe Biden can keep that shit separate.
RON: Right. He knows exactly what phone I can send him a
Fisher Price phone and he'll be like ding ding ding ding ding.
DAVE: So here's someone brought up a point today on Twitter.
Now, Trump is way ahead in most polls.
RON: Yeah. DAVE: And now, if the president can just shut down any website he wants,
it doesn't. It only says foreign or
RON: yep, you kind of saw why I was going with this question.
DAVE: So why aren't they afraid that Trump will misuse this power?
When Trump is ahead in the polls.
RON: Oh, wait, you might have.
DAVE: And they're giving the president the power to do this.
RON: Biden, the president.
DAVE: Biden's the president right now.
So when Trump wins, but if Trump wins, Trump gets to do this.
So why do the Democrats vote for it?
Oh, by the way, Dina Titus, the woman I'm running against.
And Congress District 1 Nevada, she voted for it.
So so call her up and ask her to explain herself.
RON: Yeah, DAVE: by the way, Dina, if you want to come on the show, you're more than welcome.
Please. RON: And anybody who's running against me in District five right now,
there's two Republicans and one Democrat, you are more than welcome to come to my garage.
And we'll do an unedited interview.
I'll even put a clock on the table with a second hand.
So we know I'm not going to edit your shit.
Yeah, I'd love to talk to them.
DAVE: But like, why aren't the Democrats afraid of giving this power to Trump in a year and a half?
RON: See, OK, so OK, this is kind of my working theory here,
because they know Trump's not going to win.
DAVE: There you go. RON: Well, so so that's a different angle that I was taken.
Let's just say TikTok.
I don't use TikTok.
DAVE: I don't either. I mean, I don't I don't have it installed.
RON: I think it's disgusting.
I think it's a violation of freedom of speech that they're going to they're going to ban this.
And I also think they're going to use to go after Elon Musk.
But DAVE: 100 percent.
RON: But so the typical users of the demographics of TikTok would be like
millennial young millennials and then Gen Z.
They typically vote Democrat.
DAVE: I mean, polls show varying things on that.
RON: Yeah, no, it's true.
But typically, you know, a lot of a lot of the young do some because we are we all
a lot of people were Democrats when we were young and we got our first paycheck.
DAVE: We went, what is that?
RON: What about this Republican Party?
And then I went to them and I'm like, what about this Libertarian Party?
This is why I ended up at Sorry Libertarian you're stuck with me.
Because I don't think you can actually vote me out if I'm not a if I'm not a member.
I'm just a member of good standing.
But good luck with that.
Yeah, so I to me I'm watching Joe Biden see if he's going to sign this.
DAVE: What's that?
RON: If he's going to sign this bill, it's got to go to him.
DAVE: Of course, he's gonna sign it.
The Senate's going to pass it.
I think he's already said he's going to sign it.
RON: Well, I mean, does he remember that, though?
But but DAVE: we also know who's in charge of Joe Biden has said that Joe Biden will
sign it. RON: Oh, so Obama. Yes.
OK, so the other problem is I'm watching this one because I mean.
Whoa, it's a little windy outside,
I believe that through different channels, Joe Biden has profited hugely from China,
Russia, DAVE: Ukraine you mean RON: yeah, it's all of them.
I was I'm trying to stick to more of China because China does not want to lose
control of this. DAVE: No, of course not.
RON: And if Biden takes the control away,
they're going to give us some you know, they they held the information.
DAVE: The thing is, like, they're already infiltrated in every aspect of our society.
RON: Make our phones.
Yeah, you don't think there's a DAVE: your laptop.
All those chips in there come from China.
RON: Yep. So but yet those are all fine.
But we're going to ban a website that kids use.
Whatever. Yeah, I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm DAVE It's bad it's bad.
It's it's probably worse than you've heard.
RON: Yeah. Well, I also I do.
I do believe it's baby steps to go after Elon Musk.
And then if anybody else who decides to step out, maybe even rumble.
I mean, DAVE: you know, maybe anybody.
I mean, like, there's no there's no like limitation.
I think it was like minimum a million monthly active users,
which any medium size.
RON: I mean, we've got that, don't we?
DAVE: Oh, of course. OK. Yeah.
Yeah, I just checked right now.
Like just a minute. I got the live number here.
RON: All right. So we'll have to see where this where this ends up at.
But yeah, I DAVE: It's very bad.
RON: I'm again. Well, is there so I haven't read it yet because I've been.
DAVE: It's not that long, actually.
RON: Is there any mention of VPNs?
DAVE: No. RON: So there because I was there.
They're trying to sneak through a VPN ban.
DAVE: Well, let me let me.
So it didn't mention VPNs, but it says.
Oh, a website, a desktop application, a mobile application or augmented or
immersive technology application that lets you create an account that shares
text images, videos, blah, blah, blah, has more than one million active users.
Yeah, so it's not like it's more of an interactive service.
Like anything that's like like discord, for example, RON: OK, DAVE: chat rooms,
TikTok, YouTube, Rumble, Twitter,
and kind of social media.
RON: Stop voting for Republicans and Democrats, people seriously.
What would we have to do?
DAVE: Right. They all agreed on this.
They all fucking agreed.
And they're on Twitter.
What's his name?
Eyepatch McCain is on Twitter with a video.
He's all proud of himself for voting for this.
RON: I mean, is that Texas?
DAVE: Is it from Texas?
RON: The guy who has one eyepatch.
DAVE: Yeah, I patch. He's a senator.
RON: Yeah, these from Texas.
DAVE: And he's proud of it.
All the reply, literally all the replies are calling him an asshole.
And we're in there too.
RON: I think Rand Paul's against it, though.
DAVE: Rand Paul's against it, RON: of course, because, yeah, coming from Dr.
No, his dad, hopefully Rand Paul.
Well, I believe that there's another congressman from Kentucky
who's against it as well.
I think he's on the outside, though.
DAVE: That's Massey.
RON: Oh, is that Massey?
OK, I don't know their names.
I don't give a shit.
DAVE: Yeah, he's like the most libertarian person in Congress.
RON: Oh, really? DAVE: Yeah. RON: OK.
It's actually the state.
I'm the first generation born outside of Kentucky.
So if I make reference to being a hillbilly, I am.
I got it comes it's nationally in my blood.
Hence some of my distilling and beer making equipment up there and other stuff.
But yeah, we're discussing that as well at another time.
What else I want to talk to you about?
Jesus, you know, the TikTok thing, though, it's kind of freaking.
The cannibals are really freaking me out.
DAVE: I think the TikTok is much worse.
RON: I don't do this again.
I got even barbecue coming after us.
DAVE: Well, he's one guy. And you got guns.
RON: I mean, you know, he eats people.
I got. Yeah, that is true.
And I think that's why we don't care about this whole migration.
We got guns.
We protect ourselves if it comes to that.
And I hope it doesn't.
And that's actually one topic we probably will be discussing at some point
is what to do if shit does go sideways with the new new arrivals to this country.
Again, I'm not trying to self fear here.
But it does raise some red flags on all this stuff of who's coming in.
Who's if I find out that the UN is behind this,
that that's going to be a whole different story.
But I kind of think the UN might be organizing some of this stuff.
DAVE: I mean, I think the best thing you do is make friends with them.
RON: Like the cannibals?
DAVE: I mean, not necessarily cannibals, but the ones who aren't assholes.
RON: I wish we could show videos because we're going to get there.
There's literally a video of a reporter talking.
He went and interviewed these cannibals.
And you see it in his face.
He's like, Oh, shit, they're going to eat me.
And he's talking to his counterpart.
He said, How do we get out of here?
I mean, guess what?
I created a distraction.
Let's get out of here.
He realized real quick that that he needed to get out.
It's you know, he actually went there.
Unlike CNN, who would have faked it.
Yeah.
So all right.
What more is in the news today?
DAVE: I don't think there's anything else that was that big.
RON: Yeah. Well, that's why the VPN thing scares me.
Because even Nikki Haley, one of her speeches, she's like, I want to know who you are on the internet.
DAVE: Get the fuck out.
Oh, there's something sort of related to that.
So Texas now requires ID to look at porn.
So all the porn sites are blocking people in Texas.
RON: Do I have to show them the ID every time I log in?
RON: No, no, no, they're just blocking you.
Because instead of complying, they're just not letting you view porn from Texas.
RON: Utah it something similar.
DAVE: I don't know that. I think
Louisiana did it too.
RON: But if they want, I how do I how do I show them my ID?
DAVE: So you would have to when you create you have to create an account.
RON: Oh, they'll need my information.
DAVE: So you have to give me your email and blah, blah, blah.
And then you would like scan your ID or take a picture of it or whatever.
And then they would see that and say, oh, yeah, he's legit.
RON: Do I get put on a special website that I'm a porn visitor?
DAVE: Allegedly, they're not going to do that.
RON: Yeah, like allegedly here in Nevada, when they're they scan our,
IDs about anything tobacco related or nicotine related.
That's not going to be sold to the insurance companies at all.
We would never do that.
Bastards, again, stop voting for Republicans and Democrats, people.
There are other parties out there.
I'm not saying go libertarian because we are a little bit on the crazy side,
but we're also somewhat sane and we're going to be more sane after all these
news stories break. There are other parties.
There's the independent party.
There's the Green Party.
Is Nader still in charge of the Green Party?
DAVE: Is he still alive?
RON: I don't know. Does that matter?
I mean, the guy in charge of Democrat parties, he alive?
I mean, I seriously think that's a Weekend At Bernie's.
DAVE: He's moving around.
RON: You saw Weekend at Berdie's.
You could make a move with sticks and strings and in the White House.
I mean, they fake the moon landing.
They can fake a dead guy walking.
No, I don't kill me on that.
It's a joke. I don't know if he landed on the moon or not.
They could have fucking claim on that.
Although it does look like DAVE: Fact check!
RON: Looks like Utah.
DAVE: YouTube's going to put a little thing at the bottom.
The moon landing is actually real people.
RON: OK, so their fact checkers are saying it's real.
DAVE: Oh, do we mention we got banned or we didn't get banned?
RON: I wasn't going to bring that up just because I didn't know if.
DAVE: But they they my friend messaged me said, hey, they took your YouTube video down.
And I go back up there and they took it down.
So I log in and they said we violated the medical misinformation policy.
RON: I don't know. I don't know what I did.
DAVE: Well, I don't either because I hit the appeal button
and I put a giant rant.
RON: Oh, yeah, I love your rent. Oh, I love the rent.
DAVE: It's like, you guys are stupid.
You're going to you're going.
I used a lot of swear words.
RON: I saw that DAVE: you're going broke.
This is why we put it on rumble and Odyssey first.
And then like literally five minutes later,
oh, we've read your appeal and you're you didn't actually violate the rules.
RON: Yeah. The only thing I said was I was joking that Pfizer is going to be an
advertiser on our show. I mean, they're not.
DAVE: I think it's because you said the word vaccine and it auto flagged it.
And then like someone had to go through manually.
Oh, they didn't actually say anything.
RON: I was talking about the flu vaccines,
yeah, which I highly encourage no one to get.
I mean, I'm not even calling it's cold.
DAVE: When I when I they didn't even read the appeal or RON: I know,
DAVE: or the guy just thought it was funny or I don't know.
RON: Maybe it was the guy's last day at YouTube.
But fuck, yeah, put that back on.
Yeah, I don't know.
Well, we're on YouTube for a while.
Let me see if I can get this show removed.
DAVE: I mean, I'm going to try.
We're going to try. RON: Yeah.
I mean, I wish we could stay on YouTube because they are.
I mean, that's where everyone is right now.
DAVE: I mean, people are leaving.
RON: Well, no, I mean, I don't know if you watch other podcasts on rumble like Russell
Brand, the bond, I know, Bongino doesn't do it.
DAVE: I know Viva Frei.
Crowder does a lot of it's a Steven Crowder.
DAVE: Yeah, and Viva Frei's on.
RON: They'll do like like the first 10 or 15 minutes of their show.
And then they'll say, OK, we got to leave YouTube.
We can talk about the truth.
I mean, whatever.
DAVE: I mean, I'm not going to put that much effort in.
RON: That's that's that's doing a lot of work.
But yeah, and that's why I do like rumble, because maybe when the UK went after
Russell Brand, the head of rumble goes, yeah, we're not taking him down.
DAVE: Right. RON: Too bad.
DAVE: Well, I mean, the thing with rumble is like
I like what they're doing right now, but they're still a centralized,
you know, piece of software where when the wrong people take over, right,
this is going to go down the shitter just like YouTube did.
So this is why I put Odyssey first, because Odyssey is actually
part of a decentralized system called LBRY.
OK, so Odyssey itself is just a front end on LBRY.
So Odyssey is centralized.
They could block things if they wanted to.
But the underlying system of LBRY is based on a cryptocurrency
where you can't be blocked.
RON: I like that. DAVE: Yeah. RON: OK. Cool.
Where are we at now? Time wise, I don't see the time when we started.
We're about to have.
DAVE: I think it's yeah.
So let's move on to your.
OK, talking about this week.
RON: I'm going to focus on prepping food.
I kind of hit it a little bit last week.
But again, kind of just threw it out there.
You know, and here's the thing.
I mean, I do believe people should prep food.
Me telling you guys what food to prep kind of doesn't make sense.
So more of just covering the importance of prepping.
They always say you should have, you know, three to four or five days of food
prepped in your house.
And that's that's kind of a good golden rule.
But again, I'm going to kind of focus on something else real quick.
Have you? Well, you don't.
OK, you live in Illinois for a while.
DAVE: Yeah. RON: Were you ever there for like a blizzard or?
DAVE: Oh, yeah. RON: OK.
So and I lived in Tennessee as well.
And they did it there when it snowed.
They cleared the grocery stores.
They literally go by happening in Chicago.
I'm like, oh, Chicago, we're not going to do that.
We got fucking restaurants everywhere.
We know we don't we're not sure enough.
It was in January of 14 when the polar vortex was coming through.
Damn grocery stores were empty.
DAVE: I didn't notice that.
RON: I mean, there was I mean, tofu was still sitting there.
And that well, if the fake.
DAVE: Where did you live? You were in RON: the river north.
DAVE: Huh? RON: Oh, no, wait, I'm sorry.
That was 14. I was in Rigbyville.
DAVE: I was in South Loop when I never I mean,
maybe I didn't go to the grocery store on that day.
RON: Well, yeah, I didn't go there to buy food.
I was going to get something.
Yeah. And I'm like and they happen in Tennessee.
They're like, oh, people in Tennessee warn me if it's going to snow
by milk and eggs and bread, you're not going to be able to get them.
I go really go how long how long will we be stuck at our house a day or two?
DAVE: Yeah. Then why are you?
RON: What do you do?
You don't have a day or two of milk bread and eggs in your house right now.
DAVE: I go to Costco and get the huge three pack of milk that last me two weeks.
RON: Yeah. So so so but that's kind of stuff that people prep for.
I'm not prepping for a snowstorm.
I mean, I'll walk in the snow to the store, whatever.
But, you know, preppers get a bad name of like, oh,
you're doomsdayist, whatever I am what I am.
But you want to have food.
I'm kind of hitting the target of three months.
It's not going to hurt if you if you never.
Well, I think you've never used it.
If you're going to do canned goods, you've got to rotate that stock.
You got to like buy new ones and pull of it.
But you want to find enough food to sustain your family for at least three months.
And kind of just hit the target of 2000 calories a day.
Buy some MREs.
I think they're I just think they're really expensive, though.
Oh, I see ads now.
$200 off.
$200 off. Yeah.
DAVE: What? How many are you buying?
RON: It cost me.
So I haven't gone to I actually I have one little box of MREs here.
I bought them in an estate sale.
Yeah.
DAVE: Well, that's another thing.
Costco has like dry food prepping.
RON: Oh, yeah.
OK.
Oh, and so does that Dick's or the store here?
DAVE: Maybe I don't really go there.
RON: It's by it's by the casino.
DAVE: There's one at the fashion show mall on on the strip.
RON: I think Dick's and Cabels bought each other out.
I don't know who owns who or what name they use.
I don't really go to those stores.
Oh, yeah, because I was at Dick's or Cabels or whatever.
Did you hear about this?
I can't focus.
Sorry.
Um, they were caught tracking gun buyers.
DAVE: Oh, yeah, yeah.
Of course, RON: I went to that store about two years ago and I wanted to talk to,
you know, somebody behind the gun counter
that you had to download the app.
DAVE: Goodbye.
See ya later.
RON: I'm not putting that shit on my phone.
She's like, well, they won't let you talk to me.
I go, I'm not talking to anybody here.
I'm getting out of here.
Yeah, because I don't put any of that IR crap on my phone at all.
I was in an airport.
I forget where I was trouble for work.
I was in an airport and you could not eat or drink or do anything without the app
on the phone.
And luckily for me, I'm a prepper, so I had my own liquor in my bag.
Tips I can give you later how to get liquor past the TSA.
It's doable.
Well, you gotta be prepared for anything.
I mean, if the plane crashes, I mean, it's a Boeing plane.
You should talk about that, too.
The Boeing if shit falls off the Boeing plane, you end up on an island.
Even though I've never left the continental United States or maybe we end up in
the Rocky Mountains or whatever.
I got liquor.
I gotta be prepared for I don't care about food.
DAVE: So what about RON: the guy who's DAVE: just the food?
Oh, you know, I'm talking about the guy who died in the parking lot.
The whistleblower from the balcony.
DAVE: I mean, I don't care, but it's for the viewers, RON: I know.
So getting back to the food.
Sorry. Again, I don't know how to focus.
My third grade teacher is probably watching this and going,
I told him he's Mrs. Phelps.
He cannot focus, but I did OK.
I'm 54 now, 54 just for the other day.
And I did OK, not focusing.
And I do carry a calculator in my pocket all the time.
They kept telling me I wouldn't, but I do.
You're not going to be able to have that calculator handy all the time.
Well, you don't fucking know the future, apparently.
And I'm pretty sure she's not in the future now because she was pretty old back then.
Wow, I really got off track on that one.
So so getting back to the prepping of food,
you want to just have food handy, you know, beans.
You want to do your proteins, your vegetables, your fruit.
You want to have a good supply of stuff.
And again, I'm not saying anything bad's going to happen because I don't know.
But if it does, why not?
You know, so look at your budget, see what you can do.
Just kind of stock up, get a vegetable garden growing.
And I mean, the vegetable garden,
get that growing, which we'll discuss more of that later as well.
That's just good fruit and vegetables.
I mean, no GMOs, no that crap in there.
But of course, you got to source your seeds now because you got.
Oh, yeah, they're fucking seeds.
DAVE: So like what's something I can I can go home and do on the way home?
RON: Like I mean, DAVE: or tomorrow, what can I do tomorrow?
RON: So for instance food, I mean, I do.
I'm a big person on beans.
Beets, jerky, shelf stable.
Green beans, I like those.
For some reason, I don't even know why I got a shit load of beets.
Matter of fact, I think I might have taken it in.
I had a can of beets on top of my garage fridge for a while.
I don't even know.
I like beets, but I don't know a recipe I ever use beets.
DAVE: Oh, beets are great.
I love them.
Just roast them plain with salt and pepper.
RON: Oh, see, there you go.
Dinner tonight.
Yeah, it's basically, you know, if you want a good, hearty meal,
all you need is, you know, some flour, some beans.
You can do beans and biscuits.
And that will sustain you.
DAVE: Right. RON: You know, and do making a drop biscuit recipe is nothing.
I mean, literally it's called a drop biscuit because you make the concoction,
you drop it on the pan.
DAVE: Yeah.
RON: And that's that's a good source of, I guess,
carbohydrates if you want those.
But it's still it's good and filling for you.
You know, because it's hard to talk about what to prep because one,
are we going to have power?
So do our freezers still exist?
You know, and or are we doing just dry goods only?
I mean, you can do evaporated milk.
There's a lot of stuff you can do that kind of just get a sort of prepper kit going.
So it's just it's important to have it because there's no country that can
Canada's not going to send in in care packages to us people.
They're just not.
So.
OK.
Yeah, I think that's really about it for the food.
Again, I encourage gardens because you'll have the best tomatoes
ever. I love tomatoes.
What I what I how I set my garden up, though, is if it's in if it's in Pico de
Gallo, it's grown in my garden.
Well, I like to go to a lot, but it's also a wide variety of stuff.
And then we're also going to discuss the herbs that you want to grow to one.
Just make your food taste better, but also for medical healing.
There's there's stuff out there that will heal you.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
I watch how I say this.
There's stuff out there that if you put it in your body, it'll be it will help
your body fight off bad things.
So yeah.
So I think you got a little demonstration going on.
DAVE: Well, yeah, I want to talk about secure messaging apps.
So it's all the rage these days.
End to end encryption.
I want to talk to my friends in a secure manner.
They're spying on us.
But the problem is there's like a million things.
I'm sure you've heard all these words thrown about like signal, telegram,
WhatsApp, blah, blah, blah.
RON: Biden and WhatsApp.
Again, I'm not technical.
DAVE: So so really like people always ask me because I'm the tech guy, you know,
what's what's the best secure messaging app?
Right.
Well, unfortunately, I can't give you one answer because I'd have to ask you a
question first and that's what's your use case?
OK, what do you want to do?
So if you just want to chat with your friends the same way you do texts,
signal is by far above and beyond the one thing you want to do.
So what I actually want you to install a signal on your phone as I'm talking
about the other stuff, so signal is open source, end to end encrypted.
RON: So so I gotta interrupt for second.
I've got to say a really bad word here.
Can I use Google to go to the app?
DAVE: Well, however you get apps, your app store, you have an app store.
RON: I'll go to Google app store.
Google.
DAVE: Yeah.
So and then signal actually just released a new update where you no longer have
to share your phone number to chat with people.
So now you can create a username and just give that username to people.
So it's a huge improvement there.
The other thing, if you want to use a chat room,
kind of like discord, a lot of people like discord.
Discord is spying on you, man.
Like they they spy on what you say.
They will ban your ass if you say something wrong and they don't give a fuck.
So the replacement for that would be matrix.
And we actually have a matrix room for the podcast.
So if you guys go to our website, you can check it out.
Click the M in the lower right, I believe it is.
It'll take you right into our room.
RON: OK.
DAVE: And then the other one I would like to talk about is called Simple X.
So Simple X is like more towards the anonymous end where you can create and throw away
identities all you want.
So the idea is you would put your public identity on your website, for example,
and then people could contact you anonymously.
And then you can do the same for other public figures.
RON: I don't want people on the internet conduct to be anonymously.
DAVE: Well, there's valid reasons for that.
RON: Yeah, I won't even read the reviews.
Yeah, because everybody has such nice things to say.
DAVE: Say we get elected, right?
And a whistleblower wants to,
you know, say they found corruption in whatever departments,
but they can't reveal their identity.
RON: How hard is that?
DAVE: Well, but they can't reveal their identity.
OK, so they would go and click on our Simple X link and say, hey,
I'm I'm an anonymous whistleblower.
You know, here's this evidence.
You know, please take a look into it.
RON: So no more meeting in a parking garage.
DAVE: Yeah, you don't have to do that anymore.
But it's all it's all secure and end to end encrypted.
No one can spy on that on the conversation.
RON: Although that would be a good name for an app.
Woodward and Burden.
Woodward and Burdenstein.
Yeah, they met in a parking garage.
That's where deep throat.
DAVE: Right. Yeah.
You done installing that yet?
RON: No because see, here's the thing.
I got a sponsor one and non sponsor.
DAVE: Oh, so the non sponsored.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's one thing.
One thing to look out for in chat apps.
If someone's sponsoring it, if they got a marketing budget,
it's probably full of shit.
OK, so there was one going around libertarian circles not too long ago.
Where on the podcast.
You know, they would they would do an ad for it.
And I I looked into it.
I'm like, this is shady, man.
Because like they said, we're going to be open source soon.
I'm like, well, why aren't you open source now?
Like, what are you talking about?
And then it turned out like it wasn't even encrypted.
So like a guy was able to to log in and then he spied on the traffic.
And he found that
it used it sent your whole encryption key to the server,
which essentially means everyone can see what you your chat.
And but not only that, it would give you back everyone else's encryption key.
If you ask for it.
Oh, so like if your name was Ron Morgan, you would say, well, actually,
I'm Dave, it would just give you my my encryption key.
I'm not even going to name the app because it's just that fucking bad.
Don't research it. It's just fucking terrible.
If someone's marketing it, it's not it's not helping you.
You got to have open source.
RON: So here's the question I always get asked from trying to install something.
Do I allow this to access my contacts?
DAVE: Yeah, well, that's up to you.
You don't have to.
But it will look at your contacts and then automatically add them as signal contacts.
So it's up to you. RON: I'll try it.
I usually keep my phone so shut down like I don't have the Wi-Fi.
DAVE: I mean, like I said, because signals open source,
you could in theory find what that dialogue is actually doing and say, oh,
it's actually safe.
RON: OK, yeah, for me, I can't do that.
So I am not a techno technological person.
I'm doing something right now.
OK, well, my phone number was correct.
DAVE: Yeah, yeah, so signal signal is based on your phone number,
but you don't have to share your phone number anymore like you used to.
RON: So it said I have to enter a code and then it texted me a code and it pre-put in
the code for me. DAVE: There you go.
RON: I don't know, man.
DAVE: Well, I mean, it's on your phone.
RON: I'm going to change this to my actual name.
Last name is optional.
I'm not going to tell them that.
Create your PIN.
DAVE: You don't don't tell your PIN to anyone.
RON: Yeah, here. So I'm going to show on camera how to how to create a pen.
Four digits.
I think what I want to do, I don't want to give up my ATM code on here.
We got dead air, man.
We got dead air RON: like this money in my bank anyway.
In the Biden economy, economy.
Wow, OK, I love it when I make fun of somebody who can't talk and I can't talk.
That's OK.
I'm American citizen.
I can criticize it.
If I want.
OK, I just did it.
OK, choose a stronger PIN.
Yeah, bastards.
DAVE: You don't want to use zero, zero, zero, zero.
RON: You know, but see, no, that's genius because if I hack or they're like, who's
going to do zero, zero, zero, zero?
DAVE: That's the first thing they check anyway.
RON: No, DAVE: it is. RON: All right.
DAVE: They don't even do it manually.
They have they have a list and it's all just
but I actually I was making throwaway accounts on Reddit just to fuck with people.
Troll and I would always make my password "password" just to see if anyone would steal it.
RON: Yeah. DAVE: And nobody did.
RON: See, it was too simple.
They say that, you know, you have to be complicated.
I think simple is the solution.
DAVE: Trust me, you don't want to do that.
You got to get actually the best thing to do is get a password
manager, which I will cover on a future episode.
But RON: OK, so I think I may I got no no chat chat.
So no. DAVE: OK, so
click to open a new chat and.
RON: Does that little pencil thing?
DAVE: Yep. Yeah, compose.
OK, you can see if you can search for me.
RON: Like you're in my phone.
I should be. You are.
There we go.
OK, DAVE: OK, send me a message.
OK.
RON: You guys need a dick pic?
DAVE: Whatever you want. I don't care.
I'm going to delete it.
And there it is.
Look at that. So I didn't I didn't time it.
But I think that was like three minutes, maybe with your with your.
RON: Yeah, from the.
DAVE: Yeah, yeah. So like if Sasquatch here could figure it out, like you guys need to be
doing signal right now.
RON: Be nice. I'm a little sensitive right now.
I was called fat on the Internet.
DAVE: Now, don't ever talk to me again on regular text message.
Use signal and get all your friends and family to use signal because this is like
your text messages are being spied on.
RON: By the NSA? DAVE: By everybody.
Anyone can like it's all fucking plain text.
No, I know it's all like you signal from now on.
RON: Yeah, because because like people get mad at me because I literally I'll text like
two words, I'm not I'm not putting that much shit out there.
I don't think the government wants to listen to me.
And I'm not a criminal, so I don't really have nothing to hide.
But you never know what tomorrow is going to bring.
So I just want to, you know, be able to fly.
DAVE: So there's there's another nice feature on signal that I want to talk about is
auto disappearing messages.
RON: I like that. Yeah.
DAVE: So you can set it to one day.
I always set mine at one week.
You can do like one day.
Do a month, whatever you want.
So yeah, like your history will be purged and it will be purged from both ends of
both ends. So like my messages will delete themselves from your phone after one week.
RON: I've always wondered why they didn't do that.
Do you mean DAVE: if you were dumb enough to say something illegal?
Just wait a week and it's gone.
RON: No, and that's true.
And I mean, yeah, I don't want to say anymore.
It's gonna be in trouble.
Really, I thought that some messages would be kind of cool.
DAVE: And then the last thing I want to talk about,
actually, people don't know about this on signal.
They have something called a safety number.
So if you click on my name.
RON: Here, we're up here.
Yeah. Oh, there we go.
DAVE: And then there should be view safety number.
RON: But the pictures is funny.
DAVE: Yep, you safety number.
So what this is, let's say somebody found out your pin because you use zero, zero,
zero, zero, and you just told everybody on the Internet.
RON: Like anyone is listening.
DAVE: Now, what the safety number does is it would let me know that somebody else has
logged into your accounts.
That's not you.
Right. So what I'm going to do here is I'm going to
open up.
RON: So it kind of syncs up to what you were talking about last week with the canary in the cage.
DAVE: Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
So I'm going to scan your QR code here.
RON: Oh, he's stealing my bank information, guys, right in front of you guys.
DAVE: So then I get to mark him as verified and then you should be able to scan mine.
So tap this quick, quick, quick QR code.
So you do.
RON: I messed up.
DAVE: Yeah.
RON: I don't know what happened.
DAVE: So tap the QR code.
RON: Okay.
DAVE: Say yes, use the camera.
RON: Okay.
Yeah.
There we go.
DAVE: There you go.
So now, like I said, if you guys were to hack into Ron's signal account because his
passcode is zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, I will get notified that his safety number has
changed. So I'll know somebody, somebody, that guy asking me to like donate to Nigeria,
the Prince, like that's not Ron.
RON: Could you let me know when that happens so I can change my code?
DAVE: Sure.
RON: Are there any truth to those stories about the Nigerian princesses sending you millions
of dollars if you send them like 10,000?
DAVE: He told me the checks in the mail and I'm still waiting for it, but you know, the guy's very
trustworthy.
So I mean, I'll be a millionaire.
What am I going to?
RON: I mean, it's worth it to invest $10,000.
DAVE: Of course.
RON: You're getting like 10 million.
DAVE: Yeah, that's a huge return.
RON: I mean, yeah, you can't do that at Chase Bank.
DAVE: So yeah everyone get signal, join our matrix room, use the verification number
on signal.
It's, you know, it boosts your security by 10 times.
If you really want to get into things, get simple X.
Yeah, so RON: cool.
DAVE: That's my spiel.
Next week, I'm going to talk about the scary dark web.
RON: Oh, the dark web.
So yeah, I got to hire.
Somebody to kill people.
I heard DAVE: Allegedly RON: Allegedly kind of sort of maybe not, but maybe.
Just my opinion, I could be wrong.
OK, I think next week I might kind of get into some of the
tinctures you can make to kind of make yourself feel better if you got a little
issue going on, because this one is kind of serious.
People people are already telling me this is happening, that the pharmaceutical
medications at the pharmacies are not always going to be there.
They're not there right now.
DAVE: Sure.
RON: There's they're running short on them and they are made in China.
DAVE: So that's great.
RON: China can make our medicine, but can't make an app.
DAVE: But we're yeah, we're banning their TikTok, so it's even right?
RON: Yeah, yeah.
Oh, dear God, but there are a lot of stuff you can grow in your garden or that you
can get the store that will help you out if you're in need of anti
inflammatory and bacteria, all that kind of stuff.
It's not medicine, but it works just the same.
DAVE: Sounds good.
RON: YouTube, I said it's not medicine.
OK, are we going to end this tonight?
I mean, where are we at recording wise.
I mean, OK, we did this in 45 minutes.
DAVE: That's perfect.
RON: That's focus.
Yeah, I actually stayed focused.
I mean, not in every story, but it's all done in 45 minutes.
That's actually not bad.
I think we are done.
So good night, everybody. DAVE: See you next week.
And yeah.
