Alright, welcome to the Canary in the Cage podcast. I'm Ron Morgan, my co-host Dave Havlicek.
We're here to educate you, entertain you, and hopefully give you a giggle or two.
Yeah, before we get into it, let's talk about Monero.
Oh, we got new breaking news on Monero. Well, we got a donation from Dormouse
again. 0.00023471 Monero. Awesome. That is approximately two cents or five cents or something.
I was gonna joke. Is it a nickel? Yeah, it is a nickel. And it came with a message.
But we love them all. Yeah. So as I have promised on Matrix, here's to the you are welcome for
securing your transactions on your favorite blockchain. I have only hit one mining share
the whole weekend. So yeah, apparently, DoorMiles is doing some mining. And that was his
rewards for mining. Good luck on your mining. And nobody won this week's challenge. So no one
could find it. If not, I have a criminal record. So sorry, Oliver Chase, I saw that you tried,
but you were wrong. You didn't say pedophile, did you? No, he said he couldn't find it.
So we're going to roll that over to this week's challenge. So that's going to be 0.02.
Do we have this week's challenge? Not yet. It's going to be, might be a secret word,
might be something else. I do have an idea for it. So maybe we'll do that. But so they're
going to the winner of this week will get 0.02 plus Dormouse's donation. Sweet. So Biden did
maybe hopefully kind of his last interview. Oh, yeah. It was typical Biden mumble, mumble, mumble,
mumble, mumble, a word, word, a word. I'm surprised I don't see it like I don't see people posting
on this and not on X anywhere. I think we're all just like fucking grandpa, just go home. Just,
just make, take grandma, go home, don't get run over by a reindeer and you know, that kind of
But no, it's, does he think he did a good job or is he just lying?
Well, he's been a liar his whole life. No, I get that. He's had gaps his whole life. But
now, well, okay, I think this is something he actually has in common with Trump.
Like Trump will insist he's done a good job on everything ever his whole life. No, no,
Trump does the best ever. Well, yeah. But like he's had several failed businesses. Now,
obviously, if you open 100 businesses and 10 fail, you're still successful. Well, fail business is
that that's the American way. I mean, he's still saying that the failed ones were great, right? Like,
just let it go, man. You lost your stakes were bad. You like your steak well done with ketchup.
Yes, he does. Oh, he's a psychopath. Well, he eats McDonald's. He loves McDonald's.
I didn't know the fucking rare. He has terrible taste in food, which, you know, like, hey,
that's fine, right? Just stay out of the food business. But he is like almost 80 and he's mobile.
Yeah, well, yeah, I'm not saying. No, no, but maybe he maybe the I my shit rare to blue. So like, no,
I need blood. What's technically not blood. I think he's always that way. No, I know. But I
mean, I gotta have a biscuit to soak up the blood. But like, but both him and Biden
will never ever admit that anything they did was wrong ever. Like, you could just like show them
a video like you're here, you're wrong. No, it wasn't. No, it wasn't right. It's narcissism.
Like, we do need narcissists in the world. I'm cool. So who is the hardest working person in the
Biden staff? I don't even know who works in the Biden staff. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
know. I don't have a name for it. It's more of the position just because he mumbles and
it's been in the sun. That's offensive. No, it's offensive. No, it's
Hey, I put closed captions on all our videos. I do that myself. Okay. It's for you for you deaf
listeners out there. Yeah. And I know I've talked about this before, but it's just it's it's this
is going to kind of tie into what Congress or what the house tried to do yesterday. They don't get it.
The internet is here. Yeah. We are alive. We're ex and rumble. We're organizing. We're stopping the
bullshit and they don't get it. They're just like, what? There was a reporter in the offices where
Congress members offices are. I don't know. Is that the cat? I don't know what building that is.
Yeah, that's in the Capitol. And they're like the phones were ringing off the hook yesterday
because a lot of the right wing podcasts is like, call, call, call. Be nice. Don't insult. Right.
Deferred. And and that plus Elon Musk on autistic on Twitter or XCS today. Holy shit, we fucking
have success. Well, okay, so we're talking about the spending bill, right? Like this
Omnibus bill. Yeah, 1500 pages bill that they come out with pictures of it. We're just like a
giant fucking stack of paper. And I mean, like, no one read that. No one read that. Yes, he did.
Well, Elon Musk's ready because no, um, yeah. But no, what they're doing is they're using, um,
not chat. They're using an AI. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they're uploading certain keywords.
So that's pretty cool. AI is working for people. That is pretty cool. Um, but so I saw that the
bill failed and, um, they came out with another replacement that's like 115 pages and that failed
till. Oh, it did. Okay. Good. Because that bill is a piece of shit. Fuck about. I mean, seriously,
I mean, there was what $850,000 for a gay senior home. I mean, seriously, seniors need a place to
live. No, no, no, I'm all four gay seniors hanging out together by all means. But we gotta pay for
that. Yeah, they are the highest. They are one of the highest income brackets. Like why, why are we
kids? Right. Why are we paying for this? I was at $15 million to pay Egyptian college tuition.
The college in Egypt or? Yeah, college in Egypt. Pay the tuition. Why? I don't know.
Um, 400k for gay activist group to teach elementary kids about being trans. Did you,
did they not fucking pay attention to what happened November? A mandate happened. Now the
kind of, Trace, whatever, I'm feeling that fucking doodle bone. He's an idiot. He knows he's not
even a whole number. Um, and then this is my best one because this might be a manoeuvre challenge
if you want. It's up to you. Well, what is it? What the fuck is a, um, a DEI zoo? A diversity, equity,
inclusion zoo. Zoo. Yeah. So the animals? Maybe you have like albino animals or gay animal,
like because there's big gay penguins out there. That gay ducks though, because they made for life.
There are tigers that develop all black fur. So like the black tigers maybe,
because they're not left, they're not panthers. They're actually tigers. And you can, if you
zoom in, like you can see the stripes through the blast fur, but yeah, I don't, I don't, yeah, I don't,
and then the last one, and again, this goes to, hey, we see you as a fucking mandate,
pay attention because we are, and we're going to be loud and obnoxious about it.
And we're not going to tolerate this shit. 400K for a group, uh, to give clothes to teens
to hide their gender. We're done with this. We're done. We're done. You can't buy clothes,
you can't go to Target, go to the men's section. I know. What are you talking about?
Targets all by black rock. They got this, you can tuck it and stuff. You know, women, women are
complaining that like their clothes don't have enough pockets or any pockets at all or fake
pockets. Yeah. Go to the men's section. You're not, you're not being from buying.
And we don't care. God damn it. But, but so, so now we got to talk about Speaker Johnson.
Well, but no, no, you missed the, you missed the best one. Oh, what was the best one?
They gave themselves a 40% raise. Well, yeah, we know, but, but they haven't had a raise since 2012.
I don't give a fuck. I know. They're making 100% of your case.
So you're fucking a job. So now that you, uh, transitioned to that,
so have you heard the fight between cat herd and the eye patch dude? Yeah. Yeah.
Crenshaw. Yeah. And he is, he didn't just, so apparently cat herd was supporting another poster.
Yeah. And then, uh, that was going, was going back within Crenshaw. Yeah. Over the pirate.
Right. I patch became, I became that is his nickname. That is great. Um, and then cat
her got involved with this guy just went off on that. Yeah. Yeah. He didn't. And, uh, cat turns
like, we don't make enough money in Congress. He's like, yeah, well, you've been excellent
stock traders that you joined. Multi-millionaires. And he goes, I've only invested $200,000.
Oh, we're not coming from the community. No came up this year alone. You invested $400,000.
So Crenshaw, you came in, you might have been a hero, but, but you're zero.
I actually, I had an interesting take on this one because, um, some guy was, I don't know who
it was. I replied to them on X, but they were saying, Oh, this is how Congress people talk to
citizens. And I replied like, well, actually I would prefer that they do this more, just be right.
Like he's wrong and he's an asshole, but be right and be an asshole. Be angry, be passionate. I don't
care if you say the word fuck. Yeah. Um, but, but be right. Yeah. Oh God. It was hysterical.
Because if Thomas Massey came out with this kind of, oh, now we're bringing up Massey.
If I won, if I won the Congress, I'd be talking this way still. Yeah. The super hero of Congress.
He wants to join the Elon Musk and the Vic on the, the doge. Nice. So, so Massey, please,
because guess what Massey did six months ago? A lot of things predicted this bullshit is happening
right fucking now. He goes, they're going to wait till November 20th. They're going to try to push
this bill through. They're going to be like vote for it or don't see your kids at Christmas. So
Congress, guess what? Fuck you. Don't see your kids at Christmas. You know, you're rich. Fly your
kids into DC. What the fuck? Oh, DC's a crime written hellhole. I don't care. That's not my problem.
Yeah. Um, shut it down. Shut the fucking government down. Yeah. So the new bill, they cut out a lot
of the pork, which, you know, fair enough. But, but here's the thing, like you mentioned a bunch of
figures, like $400,000 and 800,000. That is a tiny fraction of the percent of what the bill is
spending. Oh, so, so the bill that they kept, which is 116 pages, which you said they rejected to,
still spending like $4 trillion. Like what the fuck are you spending $4 trillion on? But it's
for the Democrats who are involved in on that one. I don't care who does it. Get it out. I'm good.
Shut it down. We don't need you. The last time there was government, so there was a government
shutdown, probably had to be 2019, maybe 2018. Okay. And I happened to had already booked airline
flight to Los Angeles. Okay. So I'm like, Oh, dear God, TSA, it's gonna be a fucking nightmare.
Yeah. And it was a three day weekend. So we came back on a Monday, we went to the airport on Monday,
we showed up like three hours early. There was no line. TSA went through just fine. Guess what?
The reason they don't want to... They had private... No, they had some TSA. Okay. Still working. But
here's the thing, government, the reason you don't want to shut down, you don't want us to know how
good our life would be without you. I saw a meme. They had like the Spanish government shut down
for like 10 months and like the GDP went like way up. Yeah. Like shocker. Shut it down. We don't
care. And by the way, first of all, the pet peeve of mine, the military does get paid. So quit fucking
saying it. There's one branch in the National Guard, and it's not even like the full time National
Guard, they say one entity in the National Guard that doesn't get paid. Oh, darn. And it might be
the part time people. Right. So, so now they can actually say the military doesn't get paid. You
don't want to pay the military at Christmas time. Yes, we're gonna pair military. Actually, I don't.
Fuck them. Hey, we're not at war. Well, are we? No, I think we are. Congress has declared war since
1941. We're not at war. Wait, so no wars have been declared by Congress? No, not since the 19,
not since 1911? No. Oh, wow. Declare war on who? That's true. It was the state action. Because
it's a police, because everything now is a police action. Right. It's never a war, which is not, I
mean, that's not in the Constitution. I've really read it like a thousand times. It's not in there.
Yeah, but yeah, but no, it just, it just irritates me. Oh, you don't want farmers getting the subsidies?
No. You don't want to, you don't want to help people? No, this one's great though. You don't want to
help the hurricane victims in North Carolina? No. They were calling in the Congress going,
yes, we need help, but not this way. So, fucking awesome, North Carolina. I'm sorry to position
you're in. I hope everything works out for you, but good job. A lot of the reps were like,
bitching, no, you don't want to help the disaster victims. And I would reply,
well, you can, you can write a bill right now that does that. Why aren't you doing it?
One bill, one bill, one page. So I hope it shuts down. I've gone through, I don't know,
four or five government shutdowns in my life and these ones I knew of. Yeah.
Nothing bad happened. Right, nothing happened. We're getting attacked by Russia. Well, there were
some bad things that happened. Oh, so if you were wanting to go visit like the Grand Canyon or
Yellowstone National Park, they placed a guy there that would stand there and tell you,
sorry, folks, parks closed. Well, no, one day they left the park open, but they weren't cleaning the
bathrooms. So my question is, why does Congress get paid during a government shutdown? I don't know.
I think, I don't know. See, they, they should be the ones that lose the fucking money. But, and
then here's the thing, here's the breaking news, people, if you don't get paid, you're still getting
paid, it's just going to come a couple weeks later. Right. So don't freak out over this,
shut the government down. We don't need you. Let's actually have a Merry Christmas.
And that's how, because that year's funny. You know that movie of the BB gun to slide?
Christmas story. Yeah. And he only wanted for Christmas by two front teeth. Yeah. Well, I used
to say this a lot. I was going to do it to Speaker Johnson, but I'm like, oh, I'm going to visit
me at the FBI. Because I was just saying, all I want for Christmas is Speaker Johnson's two front
teeth. Now, not a threat. I don't know where the guy is. I don't know. I don't, coming out
of his two front teeth, but if someone wants to take him and send him to me, I'll take him.
No, no, this is not a threat. Good to God. I don't need to get like 20 packages of teeth in the mail.
Which one's the right one? I know. There was a TV show that got canceled like,
after a season, it was called Jericho. Okay. And it got canceled on a cliffhanger because they
a decade or two ago, that's something you did series on a cliffhanger. So they, in the TV show,
the granddad was telling his grandson like about sending peanuts to a government official that
did them wrong. These motherfuckers blasted bags of peanuts to the execs of whatever TV show that was,
whatever network that was on. And they brought it back for a half a season to end it. So shit
does work. We organize, we fight. I don't go much further because I don't want to be arrested. Oh,
shit. Okay. I know we can answer this goddamn question. Yeah. Have you heard about the lady
before they got arrested? Did the destroyer get arrested before? Are we talking about? I guess it
was pretty vague. She was on the phone with Blue Cross Blue Shield and they denied her claim.
And then she said those three words. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. No, no, she said,
um, you people are next. Right. Okay. But you people are next. Yeah. But she also said the three
words, the last word. Did I depose something? Yeah. And depose. What does depose mean?
To go to court. Yeah. You people are next. How is that a threat? Well, hold on. So like,
the charges were dropped. Huh? The charges were dropped. When? Like last week sometime.
After, because I, yeah, I haven't heard that because I'm like, she's going to become a man.
She's going to fucking sue you guys. I don't know, man. It's, it's a close. It's a close.
Let's talk about that. Now, first of all, wait, before we get into that,
I don't think threats should be against the law. It's part of the First Amendment. Free speech is
free speech. If, if the threat is viable. Don't care. No, you're right. I agree. If you say,
if you say, I'm going to punch you and then you punch them, the punching them is the crime.
No, you have a great point because what if you're a woman being harassed by a man, whether it be
your husband, boyfriend or stranger, what he's stalking me, he's watching me, he's taking pictures
of me. Well, ma'am, has he done anything wrong yet? No, well, we can't help you. Okay. So what did
she do wrong? What's I'm saying, like, she did another wrong. Right. I agree with you. Yeah.
The problem is like the laws right now are all fucked up. Like we have laws for harassment
and stalking and threats. And like, these are all subjective and vague. And like, there's,
there's no way to resolve it. Just like, dude, let everybody arm themselves, right? Give her
to all these gun control laws, get rid of waiting periods. And if a woman feels threatened by a
fucking gun, and if he does something, he's not a threat anymore. Thank you. Well, that's actually
the biggest concern with the red flag laws. Right. Because what if I was abusing my wife?
That you would get her guns taken away. Yeah. Yeah. And what she gonna,
how she gonna protect herself from me? She's not. Well, she's a frying pan. But I call the cops.
The frying pans. And then the cops are gonna say, okay, do anything. Has he hit you yet?
Nope. Okay. Calls when he does. You mother fuckers. So let's talk about Luigi. Yeah. The good looking
criminal. Well, you, you say I, he's going off what the women are saying online. They love this guy.
He, what he did was wrong. He should not have killed anybody.
But they're overcharging him. I don't even know what they're charging him with.
It's first degree murder. Well, they, they went from second to first, which I agree with. Well,
New York has weird definitions of murder. I don't know if you know this. Well, it's probably the
high numbers of murder. They have weird definitions of first degree versus second degree. So like,
it's not, but I'm not even going to the first degree I agree with. It was planned. It was thought
out. And it was first degree murder. Yeah. But they're calling him a terrorist. And they're going
off the death penalty. So maybe this would be the mayor challenge. When's the last time New York
State killed somebody? Probably two days ago. 1963. Really? Yep. But if it's legal there. Yeah,
but if it's legal, what, why entry? I don't know. 1963. So, um, yeah, I don't think so. I mean,
do they have to buy a new electric chair to bring the gallows out? I don't even understand. So
they do an injection now, right? Fuckin' Twinkie eater. You're overcharging him. If I was on that
jury, I'd find him not guilty because you're fucking overcharging him. Charging for what he did,
lock his ass up, put him in a box for the rest of his life. That's not, we're cool. I don't think
it's terrorism like this. But that's the problem with prosecutors. Yeah. And fucking Alan Bragg,
the Twinkie eaters, his butt still hurt from Trump's, when Trump spanked him. So now he's
trying to get his name back in the news. You're overcharging it, dude. Your jury's going to
turn on you. And I hope they do. Well, speaking of that, hold on. So I want to ask the question here.
If people murder people and they do all the time in this country, school shootings, workplace
shootings, shooting grandma, whatever, do they get the death penalty? Usually no. But the guy who
shot one guy, it was the CEO, he's getting the death penalty. He's a CEO. Oh, because he's rich
and wealthy. Oh, I see. So you only want to go after the fucking, protect the wealthy people.
Fuck you, Alan Bragg. I think the badder, come at me. The most charitable explanation is that
he's inspiring all these copycat wannabes. You know what? So what? TV does that. Cartoons do that.
If I had a two by four right now, I put a big short right, spit it into the head with it.
Just like the three stooges did. That would be the arguments. I mean, it's overcharging these
prosecutors, get out of control. Wait, wait, wait, wait. What's the criteria for death penalty
in New York anyway? I don't know. Okay, so it takes the word terrorism out of it, judging for
first degree murder. Yeah. And if, if, well, no, you haven't killed anybody in like 30, 40, 50 years.
60, wait, 63, we missed the anniversary. So that's 60 years. Yeah, 60 years. 61 years. So you know
what? Maybe just put it like his ass up. He did nothing special. He didn't kill a cop because
the cop will get you, they'll get the death penalty or could get you the death penalty. Yeah. But a
CEO, so you're just going to protect the wealthy in this country? Really? What about us? He just
goes to show this country is out of fucking control. They, the government does what they want. They
don't care about us. We're expendable. But oh, by all means, you should a CEO. Do not shoot CEOs.
I am not advocating for that. But if you shoot a CEO, you get the death penalty, really? That's
bullshit. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,
who decides death? Is it the judge that decides or the jury? No, the prosecutor. The prosecutor decides
the charges and then he's got to sell them to the jury. So the jury decides the sentence in New
York? Uh, well, so the, the, the jury will decide the guilt or innocence of, of an individual,
of an individual or the guilt and the not guilty plea. Right. Apparently no one's innocent. But,
but in some, right, in some states, the jury decides the death penalty as well. And I don't
know if that's New York or not. Okay. Well, since they haven't killed somebody since 63,
I guess we don't really have a way to go back to, but you haven't done it in 40, 50, 60 years, dude.
Just move on and do your shit and do your job. Well, I want to pay for this fucking-
You got to pay for this fucking-
I was in prison? Yeah, but you, you, you, did electric share. I was, I was saying,
how much electricity costs? You want electricity cost is now?
Not more. Not that much.
Pretty sure not one person hurt. I'm not sure one word I just said, but that's cool.
Because if my president can do it, so can I. No, it's, I don't want to pay for him in prison.
And I truly, because I, I blew up, well, I'm not going to get into the whole prison system,
right? But the reality is he committed a crime. He needs to be held accountable for it. But don't
fucking overcharge. Don't undercharge and don't overcharge. It's not that hard to do people.
Right. Well, it's-
It's shot CEO in my leg, shot CEO in back, ran away, bought coffee, stayed at a hostel,
followed him. Oh, that's first degree murder.
Speaking of overcharging, they're going to give Derek Chauvin a new trial.
And they should. Yeah, I mean, I don't know if they should.
Well, see, again, like, I, I think he deserves to be in prison.
So do you know his knee was actually on the dude's shoulders and not his neck?
I don't care.
Do you know the training video that the cops went through?
I don't care. I don't care.
Is that this is how you do it?
I don't care.
The dude released his autopsy.
They have.
And what was that? A whole bunch of drugs.
Yeah. So what?
The defense attorney was going to have the drug dealer go up as a witness and say how much drugs
don't even know how that one came about.
But the judge would not allow the drug dealer to testify.
Well, so that's the thing is you're talking about overcharging as they overcharged him.
Yes, they did.
And now like, they're going to have to redo it and now he might go free, where I don't think he
should go free. I think he should have negligent homicide on his record. And I think that's like
10 years.
Okay. But why is it negligent homicide?
Because he whether there was fentanyl in the system or not, he caused the whole situation
to where he caused the death.
Okay. So George Floyd, where did he die at?
Um, was he on the streets or was he in the hospital?
In the hospital. Okay.
So he made it to the hospital a lot.
Yeah. Okay.
How does that choke someone out?
Because he's the one who caused the whole situation in the first place.
No, the drugs in George Floyd's system.
No, no, no. The reason the drugs were in the system is because the well, okay.
He had the drugs.
Give him a fair trial and I will accept some of the outcomes.
Okay. So he swallowed the drugs because the cops showed up.
Okay.
And he didn't want to get caught with drugs, right?
That's what I do with my drugs.
Yeah, of course.
So now, now Chauvin, okay. So like, there was this whole thing where they're trying to get him in the
car and he's like freaking the fuck out because of all the drugs.
And like, he can't, he doesn't want to get in the car.
He's having a panic attack.
And they take him out.
And that's when like Chauvin gets on top of him.
Like, why? You don't have to be on top of him.
No, he was a big dude.
He wasn't, he wasn't hurt.
And we all know cops like to punish you.
Yeah. So like, dude, just fucking, you had him in cops already.
Just put him on the ground and let him sit there.
I'm not saying Derek Chauvin was right.
What I'm saying is he didn't get a fair trial.
Well, no, I feel that that's, and that's a problem because of the fair trial.
But that was his training.
I don't give a fuck.
You're an adult person.
You are responsible for your actions.
It doesn't matter what some other man told you to do.
That I was just doing my job as not flying America.
Uh, it does a lot of times, but not all, you're right.
Not all the time.
It shouldn't.
And put the fucking, put the police chief on trial too.
Put the guy who made the training video on trial.
Yeah.
I'm not saying like, oh, don't just ignore it.
No, that should be on trial.
I mean, like that's all bullshit.
You shouldn't be having that in the training manual.
And it was bullshit that they fucking tried to deny it and throw
Chauvin under the boss about that.
Well, we didn't train him to do that.
Yes, you fucking did.
So we didn't fuck all these people.
Well, no, it was, it was caught up in the stereo of the COVID era.
Right.
And he, he got railroaded.
I'm not saying he's innocent.
I'm not, you won't lock a cop up.
Yeah, I'm kind of okay with that too.
Because they kind of do it.
It should have been negligent homicide in, in, but do it the right way.
Allow witnesses to come in.
Right.
Allow this shit to happen and let it play out right.
And let us know how it's working out.
So, oh, we have another school shooter.
Yeah, I didn't pay much attention to that.
The fucking sheriff and the governor of Wisconsin.
Oh, we're not going to release their, their, their gender.
Really?
What?
Really?
I mean, we, we, we want to know.
I mean, you know, we need to kind of know,
so we kind of pay attention to stuff.
Apparently, I think the new, the new story is it was a assist female or someone for a female.
I have no idea.
And I didn't pay attention.
It was horrible and she, well, she's dead.
So that's probably, I saw, I saw people bitching about gun control and just like,
teachers aren't themselves.
That'll solve the problem.
Yeah, well, no, but there was, there was, I mean, there was like, what, two,
two conversations in the past month over gun control and how they'd come to get guns.
There was, well, there was a school shooting.
Yeah.
And then when the, when Luigi shot the CEO, people came up,
wait, no, no, they didn't.
No, they didn't.
Oh, shit.
So when you shoot a CEO, we, the people or some of the people say it's cool.
It's okay.
Right.
The government goes, oh, we're going to kill you if you kill a CEO.
We're not going to kill somebody who killed five people,
but we'll kill the one guy who killed one guy.
Fucking stop it.
We're all the same.
I don't care how much money got in the pocket.
I don't care what my job title is.
We're all the same.
And you politicians, you fucking put on notice.
We're coming after you guys too.
Not in a threatening way.
And we're not going to take you to front teeth.
What we're going to do is we're going to hold your accountable.
We're going to call you.
We're going to let you know we disagree with you and we're going to primary the
shit out of anybody.
Did you hear what Rand Paul suggested?
Yes.
So you can't do it though.
Yes, you can.
Go ahead.
So he said that we should elect Elon Musk, the Speaker of the House.
So it wouldn't be a luck, it would be a point.
Or a point, yeah.
But we can't do that.
Yes, we can.
No, we can't.
Why not?
Tell me why.
Tell me why you think we can.
Because it doesn't say anywhere that the Speaker of the House has to be a member of the House.
Yes, you're 100% correct.
Okay.
But guess what else it says.
What position is the Speaker of the House in when it comes to the presidency?
There's like third line.
Yeah, I don't think that matters.
You have to be an American born citizen.
I don't think that, I don't think you do.
Because you know it's him out today.
You have to be an American born citizen because you are in the succession of.
Yeah, I don't think it works that way.
So Musk would become president?
He just wouldn't become president.
So then they would skip him and go to the next guy.
Go to the general.
I don't know.
I believe the general comes next.
Well, okay, then there you go.
That's not what I'm here.
The Constitution doesn't say that.
Well, what does the Constitution say?
It says that a president must be the natural born citizen.
Right.
And then it lists the succession in the 12th amendment, I want to say.
Probably.
But it doesn't say that the speaker must be this and the right person must be this.
Can the vice president be non-born?
Yes.
Non-American born, non-born.
Yes.
Really?
Well, unless I would.
I'm pretty sure the Constitution doesn't say vice president has to be.
So actually that's a great interpretation of the law.
Because it's not something that the forefathers thought of when they wrote the Constitution.
Well, actually the forefathers really would have written that amendment.
I'm pretty sure they did think of it.
But let me hold on.
Let me double check the vice president because I'm not.
I would think they would.
And by the way, I'm still really cool with our Trump's VP pick.
It's only the president that has to be a natural born citizen.
Really?
Yeah.
So you would just skip that person.
You would presumably just skip them.
So what is the succession?
It's president, vice, speaker of the House.
12th amendment.
I believe it goes to military, not to the Senate.
I'm not sure it even goes further than the speaker.
There's generals involved in it.
I don't think so.
I do know.
I know that to be true.
I don't think so.
You're going to find out that magic box you're typing shit into.
Let's see.
12th amendment.
Oh God, this is really long.
Electors meeting is blah blah blah blah blah.
So should I do dead air for the next like 30 minutes while he reads all that shit?
If you know this, I'm right.
Hold on, hold on.
Let's see how I can entertain you.
Fuck me, dude.
Where is this shit?
We did the cat-turd pirate fight, which by the way, actually.
Oh, so okay.
So the vice president does have to be a citizen and that was added by the 12th amendment.
But the citizen is different than natural.
No, no, no.
It says no person constitutionally eligible to president can be vice president.
But now, okay.
But wasn't there a precedent set back in 2008?
What do you mean?
That the president doesn't need to be a natural born citizen anymore.
No.
Yeah.
Come on, do the math.
Get out of here.
I'm not a birther, but I will make that joke every time I can.
Where the fuck is the succession?
Oh, Lordy, what else do I got here?
Let me go to my trustee, or Chromebook.
We talked about the omnibus.
Fuck you, Speaker Johnson.
You didn't go home.
You're out of office in two years.
We are all going to come at you, bro.
We're all going to do it.
You showed your true colors.
You're a piece of shit.
And you have no desire to do your job as a Republican.
You're part of the Uniparty and you're a Rhino.
So you got to go.
And I mean, I don't know.
I mean, I'm not from Louisiana, so I really can't do a whole lot against you.
But guess who's coming for you?
Elon Musk is bringing in fucking his checkbook.
So you're done.
Jesus Christ, this is fucking long and...
Jesus.
You went down a rabbit hole, so I'm just going to start talking.
Okay.
So there it goes.
Vice President, Speaker, to President Pro Temp of the Senate,
Secretary of State, then it goes to the cabinet.
Which I don't know how the fuck that makes any sense, but...
Oh, so it does go to the Senate and then the cabinet and then the General's Senate.
Yeah.
Well, I don't even see generals on there.
So...
I know that somewhere or somehow they do follow this session.
Although I think I saw that in a movie, so it could be wrong.
Yeah.
So only the President and Vice President have to be natural born citizens
and 35 years old and odd shit.
It doesn't say the Secretary of State has to...
Or the Speaker of the House has to be.
So presumably it just skips them to the next guy.
So I believe Elon Musk is qualified to be the Speaker of the House.
Then put him in.
Because they lost their mind to Elon Musk.
Oh, yeah.
I love that.
Oh, he's acting like the President.
So Trump is just going to let him run the country?
Yeah, maybe he will.
And you know what?
We're going to love it.
It'll be better.
You put Trump, Vance and Musk together and don't forget Kennedy.
Throw a little bit of pepper in Kennedy.
Yeah.
And we're going to...
This country's going to change.
But, oh, but what's that fucking old gay dude from the...
Chase him.
Carolina's, no.
Maybe we should hook them up.
Lindsey Graham.
Yeah, Lindsey Graham.
It's funny you got that on the side.
I said very few words and you're like, Lindsey Graham?
I heard a Carolina in there.
I know.
So maybe Chase Oliver and Lindsey Graham should hook up.
And Lindsey Graham, I actually...
I hate to do...
I don't like him, but he said something about two weeks ago that I'm like,
oh, I actually dig that.
He said, I always vote yes on the president's picks.
Oh yeah, you're missing that.
Regardless of Republican, regardless of Democrat, I want them to be successful.
Oh, oh, so you've done that and now you're going to pull that plug on Kennedy?
But amen, what are you scared of?
You're going to get more money from the farmer's suit goals?
Oh, the drug companies are going, hmm, we can't let Kennedy in.
That's the guy we wanted.
You cock sucker.
I don't like everything you said.
Literally.
No, actually, no, no.
Is he a topper?
No, he's not gay.
Is he a topper or a bop?
He's not gay at all.
Your gaydar is broken.
He's just named Lindsey.
Your gaydar is broken like a woman lover.
Lindsey used to be a man's name.
It doesn't.
I didn't say he's gay because his name.
I'm saying he's gay because he sucks dick.
I haven't seen that.
Just my opinion, I could be wrong.
I have not seen that video.
So I...
There's a now people saying that he's gay.
And if he is, I don't care.
Just do your fucking job and support Kennedy.
So let's talk about the breaking news CNN had.
Yeah.
They, in Syria, so okay, I don't do a lot of like foreign shit.
Yeah, I avoid that much.
Mostly too.
It's not a libertarian thing.
We're...
Well, it is.
Get us out of there.
That's what a libertarian is.
We don't really want to involve...
We don't think our government should be involved.
Not my problem.
So in Syria, when the president or prime minister or whatever.
Yeah, Assad.
When he like snuck away to Russia.
Yeah.
CNN rolled in.
Well, no, there is a reporter who is going city to city.
Looking for a reporter that's been in jail for 14 years.
Keep it up brother.
Good job.
Go fight.
I hope you fight your friend.
Now let's get to CNN reporter.
What is her name?
I should have read this at a time.
Clarissa Ward.
Z-L-A-R-I-S-S-A.
Clarissa.
You don't remember Clarissa explains it all?
Absolutely not.
So she is in Syria and they are walking through a prison
and she is filming and she comes across a lock cell.
So what does this dumb ass do if she unlocks and she gets the door locked?
Oh yeah, what can go wrong?
And they go in and they find a prisoner.
He's been there for we don't know how long.
He was under the blanket and they were shaking and they were like,
oh sir, sir, we are here to rescue you.
He stands up all kind of fresh looking, nice clean clothes, smooth haircut.
And so I've been here for a really long time.
Thank you for saving me.
He's just trying to get the fuck out of the camera view.
Yeah.
Why?
Why did that want me to camera view?
Guess who he is?
Was that Assad?
That's the butcher.
The butcher, he was one that tortured other prisoners.
So they released the butcher and let his ass go.
Great job CNN.
If you're trying to get ratings that way, ain't gonna work either.
They heard there for sale too.
So if anyone wants to gift us either MSN or CNN.
Or both.
Both.
You can do CNN.
I'll do MSN.
We'll see who gets the better ratings.
I will.
Trust me, I got a plan already.
I don't think so.
You got a plan, dude.
I will rock that.
I'm just going to hack it.
I'm just going to hack your servers and divert all your traffic to me.
I got Oliver Chase on my side.
I have a topic that you didn't bring up.
Okay.
Trump $15 million.
Oh, from...
From ABC.
Who?
ABC.
Yeah, but the short little...
George Steffenoff.
Yeah, Steffenoff and the Greek dude.
Yes.
He's just going to stack up the cash.
That was like people were raging over this.
Like, oh, Trump's a rapist.
And then like you just look at...
Here's the jury for him.
No, he's not a rapist.
They played what he said.
So stupid.
And it was just like rapist, rapist, rapist, rapist, rapist.
Now, he said the jury said...
Like it doesn't get any more clear cut than that.
Go after them all, Trump.
Now again, like I don't believe there should be a defamation law at all.
You should be able to say anything you want.
But there is, but it exists.
It's here now, so deal with it.
Stop fucking being so stupid.
So just a real quick...
This is a really quick story.
Fannie Willis Fannie, whatever her name is.
She got...
She cannot be part of the Trump prosecutor team.
So Trump responded to that.
And in beautiful Trump fashion, he's like...
Well, apparently she pronounced it different than Fannie.
Yeah, fawny or something.
Fawney or something.
He goes, no, no, no, no, no, no, people.
It's Fannie.
It's spelled like Fannie, it's Fannie.
It's another word for ass.
Well, in England, it means you're pussy.
Which Trump can grab her by, apparently.
Just for the...
Oh, God.
Again, I'd like Trump because he makes me laugh, and that was funny.
If you don't find that funny, you don't know what funny is.
It's just saying, man.
Oh, where the hell are we?
All right, well, I guess that nobody has heard anywhere.
Oh, breaking news?
Breaking news.
You heard it here first on Canary in the Cage.
So we did a show on Honey Pots a couple of months ago.
And I run a Honey Pot.
Okay.
And just the last two days, I've had more activity than I've ever seen before.
So someone out there has a botnet that is going nuts.
And they're all coming from Kazakhstan.
So I don't, like, I don't know if it's...
Mean Costco.
No, Kazakhstan, the country.
Where more is from?
Oh, I was gonna...
Okay, I got confused.
No, I thought they were like...
I don't know if it's Kazakhstan itself, or if it's like China going through them,
or North Korea going through them or whatever.
But be on the lookout.
So, you know, any suspicious links, any activity on your network, check the IPs.
If it's from Kazakhstan, like, something's going on.
So...
Okay.
Yeah, be on this.
Hey, I say this show all the time, I'm like, something ain't right here.
Maybe something's gonna happen.
Kind of like going into my story now, guess who got blown the fuck up?
It was a general in the Russian army.
Oh, yeah, I saw that video.
He walks out of his apartment, a bike blows up, and he's dead.
It's pretty standard, isn't it?
It must be CIA.
Normally, they get thrown out of windows over there, and...
Yeah, or planes.
Yeah, but...
But...
I mean, I don't care, like this...
But no, no, no, no, if our CIA did this, that's bullshit.
Right.
So it's kind of looking like our CIA might have...
I don't know why, what the evidence for that is or anything, I don't give a fuck.
Well, it's no different than the pipeline.
Months later, I'm pretty much sure we proved we did it.
Kind of, yeah.
Yeah, kind of so.
Which actually, apparently, is gonna kill Germany.
Germany's collapsing as we speak.
Don't care.
Right, but there's a reaction to the action.
So I'm kind of hoping this...
I'm kind of hoping Putin just kind of like greets his teeth and waits for Trump to get in,
and we just come...
But speaking of Trump not getting in, we got the fucking drone still flying over New Jersey,
Ohio, New York...
This is so stupid.
No, no, I'm gonna finalize this and go...
In my opinion, I know what they are.
They're aliens from outer space.
I am going with that.
I've actually set up shit in my front yard that's got alien crash sites more than just
kind of welcoming them.
Because the other...
If they're not alien aliens from outer space...
Well, actually, look at that video from the space station orb in your video.
No, no, I'm serious.
The fucking orb that was in Jersey was in...
flown by the space station.
It was a live feed from NASA.
But here's the deal.
It's either ET in all his homies or is there a fucking government doing it?
I'm not ready to accept our government's going to fake an alien invasion.
Oh, watch the video.
The fuck?
This is stupid.
I mean, it's a live feed that was on the space station and an orb flew by,
kind of like the orbs that look like a New Jersey.
So, I don't know.
That's so ridiculous.
But I'm just...
I'm sticking with their aliens because if not aliens, they are our government.
Oh, my God.
And why we're not shooting them down?
I don't fucking know.
Because they're the governments.
Why would they shoot down their own drones?
They say something.
Why?
There is some...
Okay, so basically there's some nuclear weapons that are missing
and they're saying that they're searching for...
Because, okay, so there was a video put out and this dude was like,
the only reason you would fly drones at night is to be looking for something.
You're not going to see anything with the cameras.
The light's too dark, so you're going to have to be searching for something.
Who cares?
If it's...
But there could be nuclear warheads in New Jersey.
No, they're not.
I don't think they would notice.
I mean, you could probably blow it off and do it like...
I don't notice a difference.
Sorry, Jersey people.
I do love you.
Oh, they're not.
Um, no, that's why I'm sticking with...
I'm sticking with aliens.
Sticulous.
I'm not taking the conspiracy approach on this one.
Oh, wait, am I though?
I mean, aliens, government, cover-up.
Oh, my God.
I just want to meet ET.
But I am watching a documentary on Netflix.
Actually, I've watched all the episodes that are available right now.
He's a newsreel.
He's an investigative reporter from here in Vegas, either eight or 13.
I forget which one he was.
Okay.
And he's discussing UFOs and they went over to Utah.
I'm actually going to look this place up on the...
I can't say this word because of my speech impediment.
Highly-gryphics.
Hyroglyphics.
There you go.
There's those on a wall, on a rock in Utah, and they literally...
There's a legit...
That word.
Oh, my God.
I can't say my brain just doesn't function that way.
Too many syllables or too...
It's weird.
But they drew on the wall that sometimes looked like an alien.
Yeah.
And what I found cool about this is he was interviewing another guy,
and they were talking about that and talking about aliens in general.
And this guy threw a wrench into the whole thing
and got me really fucking excited about something.
So he's saying genetically, humans can mutate to look like the aliens that we see now.
Just go, no, we were monkeys at one point and we're now not monkeys.
So he's saying we can get the bigger eyes, the oval head, and he says they're time travelers.
I want time travelers.
I want time travelers more than I want fucking aliens.
Do you know what would make us evolve to look like that?
Well, okay, so fish that live in caves, they just...
Their eyes just stop growing.
They don't have eyes.
So we do change our DNA.
Right, but I'm saying do you know what would make us look like that
with big eyes and no hair and all that shit?
Like you're alien over there.
Yeah, do you actually have an answer to that?
Yeah, I do have an answer.
Oh, what's your answer?
Well, what's your answer?
I don't know.
Women would have to start finding out attractive.
Oh, because it's all about women.
That's... Well, they choose to mate.
Right?
They choose to...
Maybe they will find that attractive.
Maybe the bigger...
I don't...
Oh, come on.
Oh, hold on.
I mean, green skin, when's the last time you heard of...
Well, no, no, no, green skin could be poor lighting.
So women, imagine this in pale or black or brown or red or...
I just don't see it happening.
In the colors of the rainbow, could you find this attractive?
I'm seeing that.
I mean, I know you find this attractive.
This is the moneymaker.
How about this?
I mean, we can put like a toupee on them,
give them some like Justin Bieber bangs.
See, uh-huh.
Old every look now.
Yeah, you started that shit.
So, no, but I mean, again, I know it's not real,
but time travelers, I'm like...
I'm like, this is learning why I put the alien crash thing
in my front yard to help...
I grabbed one of these people.
He's like, oh, maybe he's friendly.
He comes down and we started talking,
we started getting into it.
He gives me the sports almanac from 24 to 44.
And I win.
Kind of like the Michael J. Fox thing in that movie,
oh, whatever that movie was.
Back to the future?
Yeah, because it was like two or three or four.
Frozen two.
When you got Biff's sports book.
Yeah.
So, if there's...
So we, since we are in the dark web,
we really could have futuristic people.
Come back, come on back.
You're welcome here, Afija.
I don't know what you eat, but you can tell me.
I'll make it work for you.
We'll have a few drinks, we'll talk,
we'll do a podcast, all three of us.
We'll work it out.
Hopefully you still speak English
and not some weird language that morph into whatever it is
the fuck we're doing.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
He cut back on caffeine.
Fannie's a bad...
Emergency.
Oh, what is this?
Oh, that's just...
Climb down, I got nothing.
So, what is Bitcoin going crazy for?
What defined going crazy?
106,000 per Bitcoin.
Well, now it's back over, now it's back to like 98.
But it was like 30,000 one point, like five years ago.
At the beginning of the year, I think.
Oh, it was the new, this year?
Yeah.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
So, what's going on there is...
There's this guy named Michael Saylor, okay?
And he started this company called MSTR.
And what MSTR does is it just owns Bitcoin.
Like, it used to be a technology company.
They used to do software.
Then he changed it to just, we're gonna buy all the Bitcoin.
So, what he does is he issues stock in the public market.
Okay.
And people go buy the stock.
And then he takes that money and he buys Bitcoin.
Okay.
And then somehow this is supposed to be a profitable business.
Huh, okay.
And as long as the price of Bitcoin keeps going up, it looks like profitable on paper.
But I mean, is it Bitcoin kind of been taken over by the government?
So, it's being manipulated by the government?
Kind of, yeah.
And Saylor is one of the guys pushing that.
So, if you watch his videos or follow him on X,
he's like, oh, Bitcoin's gonna be the new fiat currency, right?
It's gonna be controlled by the government, managed by banks.
You, the user, are not gonna spend Bitcoin.
You're gonna use what's called Lightning Network,
which is like a layer two solution on Bitcoin.
Okay.
And it's essentially a bank card, right?
You go and swipe your card and then the bank decides whether you'll spend your Bitcoin or not.
So, it's the same system we have now just with Bitcoin.
Okay.
And there are some advantages to the government doing with Bitcoin,
because, for example, right now, if you go to a garage sale or a flea market or whatever you,
you can pay cash.
And nobody knows about that transaction, right?
Right.
But if we're on this Bitcoin system, well, you have to pay with the Bitcoin.
I mean, unless the satellites or the black helicopters are solid.
They're just gonna know.
They're gonna know that.
Well, they're gonna know regardless, because you're using Bitcoin.
Okay.
Because it's all, it's all transparent.
Well, I think on a garage sale, I use cash because I don't know if you want,
I didn't point out that there's a new generator on my garage.
It's a really fucked up, old generator, but it's like a thousand-dollar generator, brand new,
bought her for 35 bucks at a garage sale.
Government doesn't, wait, hold on, how does she do that?
The government doesn't need to know I bought another generator.
So, yeah, so I'm gonna, it's not working right now.
I'm charging the battery, but yeah, I might have a zero for 35.
So, yeah, so as long as Bitcoin keeps going up, these goofy ass companies are gonna do well.
Okay.
But if Bitcoin goes down, which actually has gone down the last couple of days,
yeah, they could just exploit, it could be another like 2008 times 100.
Oh.
Like they could explode the whole fucking market.
Nice.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't, the whole crypto thing.
Well, this is why we only deal in Monero because Monero is free, open source,
permissionless, trustless.
So, it's not about helping the banks, it's about helping you.
All right.
So, my last story is about the DHS Undersecretary.
Do you know who that is?
No idea.
James O'Keeffe does.
I saw his videos.
Why the fuck do you guys get liquored up at a bar and talk to a stranger
about weird shit in the government?
How do they not know yet at this point?
I know.
If you're ugly and it's a hot girl, she's not there for, she's there for the fairest reason,
dude.
Or if you're gay and you got a hot dude, it's not real.
But by all means, keep doing it because it's hysterical.
No, the dude just goes like, Biden's checked out.
Like he is, like they must have really doped him up for this last interview.
Because from what the DHS Undersecretary was saying, because it's really bad.
Like he can't come by sentences.
Wow.
I mean, like I can, but I mean, whatever.
Yeah, no, it's that's pretty fucked up.
But yeah, so I'm glad James O'Keeffe is doing his job.
He's doing a great job and keep it up.
Oh, in California, I believe actually, I just heard this today.
I wasn't going to talk about it, but it popped up.
State of emergency.
In California for the bird flu.
Which there's no cases of bird flu.
Well, yeah, but there could be.
Oh, there could be.
Yeah, well, there could be.
Yeah.
Right.
I mean, we got to get ahead of this.
That's an emergency.
We don't need another COVID thing, you know, the whole fake shit and making this.
God.
Whatever.
I'm not even going to get into the whole fake shit vaccine.
Bad for you.
All right.
I think I'm done talking about the news.
What do you got for your special thing?
All right.
So I'm going to talk about Jellyfin and Kodi.
So I've brought these up before.
Are they country rappers?
No.
It's software.
Oh, it's a jellyfish dude.
No, no, no, no.
So I brought these up before Jellyfin is a self-hosted open source media server.
And then Kodi is open source software for interacting with TVs.
So, yeah, let's just go right into it.
So you actually you really want to get on these systems.
You want to get rid of like these Google devices, Amazon devices,
you know, get rid of Netflix.
It's all bullshit.
They're all spying on you.
They can take away your movies at any time.
You know, like they can raise prices.
It's just all it's all sorts of fucking ads.
They're going to start doing ads.
You know, I don't want to fucking ads.
I just want to watch my movies.
Leave me alone.
No, February 1st of 2024.
All stripping channels.
Yeah, it's just it's so ridiculous.
And I mean, I mean, I understand like how broadcast TV needed ads because it was free.
Right.
We're like, but Netflix, you're paying for it.
Yeah.
So why am I getting ads?
Right.
Fuck you.
Leave me alone.
So so Jellyfin is a way to essentially host your own Netflix for yourself.
Okay.
So it supports music, movies, TV shows, books, music, videos, and also like home video and photos.
So podcasts as well.
It does not do podcasts.
Wouldn't that be a video though?
No.
Well, I mean, you can.
You can have a live one.
Right.
It's so like podcasts have a slightly different thing where you want to mark things as red and
there's a little weird just going on there.
But yeah, I think it's on their queue of things to do.
But hey, if you're an open source, now get your ass on there.
Right.
So it can also do live TV with as long as you have the hardware.
So there's no boxes you can buy and you plug it into the Jellyfin server and it can
read that box and then show you live TV from Vegas or from anywhere.
So you can but you can choose Vegas.
Like I watched Vegas.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
It's mostly for cable, but I'm pretty sure you can get local networks because they have that device now
where it reads the broadcast antenna.
Right.
Oh, okay.
It can also act as a DVR.
So you can tell it.
Oh, hey, back to the future is going to be on in two hours.
I'm not going to be here.
Record that for me.
I need advice on how to deal people with the future.
Yeah.
Because you got time drivers.
So yeah, I mean, that's awesome.
Like, you know, record off TV because sometimes they show rare movies and old TV shows that you're
just not going to find unless you get them illegally, which you should not do.
Don't do that.
Yes.
So it'll automatically retrieve metadata about all your all your files.
So if you have a well organized MP3 collection, it's going to go out and get all the album art and
track info and lyrics and like all that shit is going to store it for you.
So then when you're playing in your car, right, like it can print the lyrics on the screen.
You can sing along, right?
No, do not look at any electronic device driving your car.
Is illegal.
But it'll grab everything about the movie.
Like who's the director?
Who's the actors?
You know, the full cast and crew.
And then you can search that data.
So like you can say, oh, I just watched back to the future.
Show me other movies that were directed by the same director.
Oh, nice.
Or show me other movies with Michael J. Fox.
Or you can do all that crazy shit.
I heard about he's making martinis now.
Shakin' or sturd.
Just shakin'.
And you can also send it to be public so that if you're, you know, in a hotel somewhere,
you can access your media collection from the hotel.
Nice.
And, you know, watch it yourself without, as long as you have to upload bandwidth, right?
Because you're uploading a movie, right?
Okay.
It has clients for all operating systems like Windows, Linux, Mac, everything.
It's got mobile for the clients.
So you can, you know, hook it up to your car, watch movies, listen to your music, all that shit.
Don't watch movies and...
Not while driving.
Just do it in a drive-in or something.
In a drive-in.
Um, what else?
You can have it for multiple users.
So, so like you can have, you know, Ron's account and then you can have your wife's account.
And then you can each have your own set of favorite movies.
And then, um, it'll keep the status of your user.
So for example, I've watched half of Back to the Future, but I have to get up and go.
So I pause it and then I come back.
Now that's recording.
Now it saves my spot in the movie.
So I can resume watching.
Oh, nice.
Okay.
Um, and it'll run on a single board PC.
So I'm running on my late potato.
Really?
And it takes care of everything.
Like it's not, it's a little straining on the late potato,
but a Raspberry Pi will run no problem at all.
Wow.
So you don't need, you know, you only got to buy one of those $50 devices.
Cut the cord.
Yeah.
And the other thing is it supports plugins.
So there's, I want to say about 50 user-made plugins in the community.
And it can, it just like different types of metadata or, you know, different ways to search
or different ways that the software can look.
Do you know, check out the plugins and see what's, see what's good for you.
And before I get into Kodi, we're going to do the Monaro challenge.
So I want you guys to tell me what your favorite movie is that's not in the IMDb top 100.
So, so go to IMDb top 100 and tell me your favorite movie that's not on that list.
So I won't say the name of the movie, but I already know your favorite.
I already know it's Roadhouse.
Well, no, okay.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Roadhouse is not in the top 100.
And it should be.
It's not.
I need to call IMDb.
And I actually don't know because I just thought of this now.
So like, I didn't have time to look and see what my favorite movie, but I will put it in the chat room.
Okay.
No, I was thinking the other movie that you actually gave me a copy of.
I did not give you a copy of any movies.
No, no, you went to the thrift store and you bought the DBB.
Oh, that one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You gave me the copy of it.
Oh, yeah, we only go.
The IRS coming up to me for like 50 cents because I got a movie.
What was that?
Was that the rare one?
Hollywood Nights.
Oh, okay.
It's not going to be that half-hundreds.
Yeah, yeah, that's not even close.
But that cannot be used as an answer now because I went ahead and destroyed that.
You destroyed house.
It's a road house.
Well, I'm surprised.
Road house.
Shoot.
No, it's not.
It means it's a hundred.
Like,
Well, but they go back to Casablanca.
Of course.
That's the number five or something.
Really?
That's a great movie.
Are you kidding me?
It's one of the best movies of all time.
Okay.
Go watch it.
Have you ever seen it?
I believe so.
God damn it, dude.
Go watch it.
Is it Black and White?
Yes.
Subtitles?
No.
Okay.
So now let's talk about Kodi.
So Kodi is what you hook up to your TV.
And that's going to replace your Chromecast, Roku, Firestack, all that bullshit.
That's your spying on you.
It slows you down on purpose.
I know because I used to have Chromecasts.
And that motherfucker, I needed to reboot it like once per day at least.
Really?
Yeah, because it just slows you down.
It locks itself up.
It's so fucking stupid.
It's terrible.
So Kodi can actually interact with the Jellyfin server.
So Kodi has Jellyfin plugin and Jellyfin has a Kodi plugin.
And those plugins talk to each other.
Oh, nice.
So you can go onto your TV, KodiBox, and access your Jellyfin shit,
and search through it, do all the searching and browsing and all that shit.
And with Kodi on a single board PC, you can bring it with you to that hotel that I was talking about.
Nice.
So now you hook it into the hotel's TV, and it talks to your home Jellyfin server,
and you've got your whole library right there in the hotel.
Oh, that's actually nice.
Yeah.
So Kodi can also do the same movie time-sinking where...
So let's say you have two TVs in your house, or five TVs, whatever it is.
Right?
You can start a movie on the bedroom TV, pause it,
and then go to your living room and resume the movie at the same place.
Oh, that's just magic.
It's great.
Yeah.
And like, yeah, I know like your Chromecast can do that, but this is open source, self-hosted.
You wouldn't think they thought of that, but they thought of it.
Sweet.
Okay.
It's got add-ons for things like YouTube, Twitch.
I might be a rumble add-on.
Oh, so you pick a device that doesn't spy on you, and you use that to access a device that does spy on you?
Well, I mean, if you want to watch your YouTube, this is like, what else?
What's your options, right?
To get a spy on.
But like, it's great because it's all in one place, right?
Yeah, no, I mean, I can take it.
Yeah, I can take it.
Okay, I'm done with this movie.
Let's see what's on YouTube.
Oh, I'm not on YouTube.
Let's go on Twitch, right?
You can do all this stuff from Onebox.
It can also play games.
So it has game emulators for pretty much every system that's earlier than, you know,
10 to 20 years ago.
No, no, no, like, because it's not gonna, you're not gonna run your Xbox games on there, right?
Space Invaders and the balls thing.
It's got that, for sure.
It's got Super Nintendo.
Pong, sorry.
It's got an N64 emulator.
So if you have all your ROMs backed up, which you should, you can put those on your network
and you can say, hey, Kodi, I want to play Super Nintendo.
Nice.
Boom.
Okay.
I'm gonna play Super Nintendo, right?
So now there's a very, very beta version of Steam on there.
So Steam is the online platform for PC games.
Oh, not for game people, like Steam Bath?
No.
Okay.
So, so they, you do have to do a lot of manual work here because it's super beta, like I said.
But people have reported that they got their Steam library working on their code.
Nice.
So like, I'm done playing Super Nintendo, nothing's on YouTube.
Well, let me see what's on my Steam.
Oh, a new game just came out of Steam.
Boom.
Add it, play it.
All on the same device.
Yeah, I love it.
It's got Bluetooth support for your controllers.
So you can, I use a PlayStation controller, PlayStation 4 controller.
You can do Xbox controllers.
It can, it can do plugged-in controllers.
It can do keyboard and mouse.
You can do literally anything you want.
It also, if your device has an IR sensor, it can use your TV remote.
So you can put your TV remote at it and tell it to go into program mode,
and then it'll learn the buttons and all that shit, and then
Cool.
Boom, start doing it like that.
Again, they run on the single board PCs.
I run them on my late potatoes.
So I have one on each TV.
And there's actually, so this is the great part.
There's two specially designed Linux operating systems that all they do is run Kodi for you.
Oh.
So instead of like doing your own install and then installing Kodi and
keeping it up to date and all that bullshit, you just install one of these operating systems
and it's got everything you need already done.
By the way, use fucking Linux.
Stop using Microsoft.
Seriously.
Yeah.
So the two operating systems are LibreElec and CoreElec.
Okay.
Now there are slight differences.
So LibreElec is kind of more stable.
So there's gonna be less bugs, less, you know, random nonsense that happens.
And you got to reboot and, you know, I have to reboot maybe once a week or whatever.
Because I use the other one, CoreElec.
Okay.
So the downside to LibreElec is that there's less hardware support.
So it does not work on the late potato.
Okay.
So, but it will work on a Raspberry Pi.
So if you're running on Raspberry Pis, maybe get LibreElec and be more stable.
So for you, I haven't watched this show on a regular basis.
This is actually stuff he showed us before.
Yeah.
Raspberry Pi, potato.
Well, I showed you the devices.
Yeah.
Go back to that.
But you watch other episodes, it'll make sense to you.
And then so I run CoreElect, which is a little bit less stable.
There's bugs every once in a while.
But it has a lot more hardware support.
So like I run late potatoes and they support CoreElec.
So that's what I put on mine.
You know, just look up what your device is and if it supports one or the other and decide what you want to go with.
So yeah, like starting investing in this stuff, right?
Like these are $50 each per single board PC for the le-potato.
You know, you can have a whole media system for less than 200 bucks.
Yeah.
And you got to get us all regenerators when the power goes out for everybody.
When China takes out our power grid, you can watch these movies.
You just say it.
And there you go.
So that's so a couple of things that popped in my head.
TikTok is supposed to be over January 19th.
Oh, right.
Okay.
But they're in the Supreme Court right now.
Yeah.
And it's just, it's driving me fucking crazy.
And it's fucking Brian.
I only listen to Brian Killme because I drive an old vehicle and I have to listen to him.
He's the only station we have here.
He's like, they need to go away.
They're spying on us.
Fuck you.
So is YouTube.
So is Google.
So is everything.
Band at all or band nothing?
Free speech.
And it wasn't generally, generally Rolls guy.
I was thinking of who's the tattoo.
He's a rapper that went country.
Yeah.
And then, oh, shit.
The other thing.
Oh, so you know, when JD Vance did his, his debate and he kept doing that,
look at the camera and smile thing, I finally figured out who he'd run to me of.
Yeah.
Are you familiar with 70s TV?
A little bit.
Three's company?
Yeah.
Mr. Roper.
That motherfucker broke the fourth wall all the time.
He would say something funny to somebody.
See, I was a Furly guy.
Okay.
Yeah.
But not not.
You have to.
Yeah.
But, but, I mean, but, uh, him breaking the fourth wall.
I mean, you got one when he does that.
So he would say something and he would look at the camera and smile.
And I'm like, oh my God.
Cause I ain't just talking to me.
I'm like, that's JD Vance.
That was kind of an Eddie Murphy thing.
Like Eddie Murphy made that his thing in the 80s.
Yeah.
In every movie, like he would, he would do that little.
Oh yeah.
I didn't do that.
That laugh.
I had a buddy of mine who, uh, he was a black guy, but he could do the Eddie Murphy laugh
like almost perfect.
It was, it was great.
Um, and sucks.
I thought he died just a couple years ago.
Eddie Murphy died?
No, my friend.
No, okay.
Yeah.
So my friend was, uh,
He looks like he's 30 still.
I know.
What the fuck?
What is the guy doing?
It's, uh, they're still in the DNA out of babies.
The, the, the 300,000 kids were missing.
They're still in their DNA and injected into him.
And anybody else who still looks to that age.
No, my, my friend was, uh, I'm gonna say his name, but it was Marvin.
You would never know.
Uh, but he had forearms like people's legs.
So what, what his tricks was he was, well, he had the Eddie Murphy laugh.
So he was a smart ass.
It was funny as fuck.
So he would, he would challenge somebody like, you know, and they get all mad.
He'd be like, Oh, you want to go outside and fight?
And as he, he always went long sleeves.
He was just sort of folding up his, his, his sleeves to expose his forearms.
And he's like, you do realize we're going to walk outside and I'm going to beat you.
So bad.
You're going to be in an ambulance about 20 minutes.
And everybody always backed down.
I think it was in the forearms, not really the ambulance strap, but, uh, I was just,
it was a, it was a funny story because I, yeah, I miss him.
Um, all right.
So I'm going to do my thingy.
We have requests for me to do electrical repair or I'm going to start on the maintenance.
And then we go to repair another day.
Cause I think, um, it's better to do maintenance first.
Cause if you do your maintenance properly, you'll fix the problem.
You'll find the problem and fix it too.
So, um, the, the first thing you really should, I don't know if you invest in this.
Um, or if you buy, I, I, I, I, I, I think if you rent them, the, the, uh, uh, flair, flair,
f-l-i-r, flair, it's a manufacturer of some kind of an electronic tools.
They make an infrared camera.
Now you can also get these on your cell phone.
I'm not sure how good they are on the cell phone, but an IR camera that's a good quality
is amazing.
Um, and what you would do with that is you would scan all your electrical devices.
So your breaker panel and go to your outlet, your wall switches.
And if you see bright red, you got a f-ing problem.
It may not be a fire today or tomorrow, but it will be a fire soon.
So you want to scan all your electrical devices.
It'll show you if you have a problem.
And the, the, the reality is it's a simple fix.
Turn the breaker off, uh, reset that, that, uh, that wire on the, on the port, on the screw.
So because of what's happening is it's not set on the screw properly.
Will it be on the breaker and outlet or switch?
And it generates heat because the electricity kind of jumps.
And if the wires not seated properly, you'll get that, but that'll show you up.
Um, so you got that.
So you also want to inspect all your appliances.
You want to check your, your stove, your fridge, your microwave.
Just make sure that they're functioning properly.
Make sure the seals are good so you can kind of like keep your energy bills down.
Um, carbon dioxide and smoke detectors might as well throw this in there now.
I'm going to ask you in the last time you change your battery is you're probably going to have to
stumb, stumb or and stambles, you know, kind of like try to figure out what it was.
I just can't get that shit.
No, I know.
We do not recommend you disconnect any life safety devices from the cage.
Um, so honestly, I would go to the store buy a brand new one by the lithium battery.
It's 10 years.
Put it up.
Forget about it in 10 years.
Put a note on your phone to give you a thing to buy a new one.
Um, they're just nice and a lot of cities you've got to put carbon dioxide detectors up like in
rentals, even though you have no natural gas in your unit or in your house.
So here's the thing.
If you don't have natural gas in your house, you don't need carbon dioxide detector.
But if you do have natural gas in your house, get the, the, get the combo unit.
And then, uh, just, and if it goes off, if it's a beep, like every minute, it's a battery.
If it beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, get the fuck out of your house for the fire department.
No, no, no, no, no, I, when I was training for an EMT, a whole family came in with carbon
oxide poisoning and I'm like, oh, dude, I may have told the fuck, go, Hey, dude,
you know, you can have a carbon dioxide detector in your house.
He goes, Oh, we have one.
I go, did it not go off?
He goes, no.
About a week ago, it kept going off, so it took the battery out.
Don't take the fuck of battery out of it.
But also call the fire department, the gas company, they'll come out and help you out.
You want to inspect your wiring and if you're already done some electrical work,
you might be able to answer this.
Find out what your wiring is.
Is it, is it solid copper?
Is it stranded copper?
Is it aluminum?
If it's aluminum, learn how to pull wire.
Get that wire out and get fucking copper wire in there.
If it's cloth wire, because I actually have had a house that cloth wire in it.
Get that shit out of your house right now, because that cloth will catch on fire.
So, yeah.
Oh, damn it.
I forgot my little, I didn't bring them in.
Damn it.
I had a little toy that I was going to bring in.
My plug?
Yeah.
I was going to show you, I was going to show you how to insert it into you.
Okay.
But it's going to be like this.
I don't want to see it.
So there's a little device that you can, it's a little thing you can plug into your outlets
and it'll tell you if the outlet is properly wired and that does help out a lot.
Oh.
Do you have a name of that?
I'm going to put it on the, I can show you a picture of it.
Okay.
It's just an outlet test.
It'll be on the website.
It's called Outlet Tester.
Okay.
So you put that in, it'll kind of tell you what's going on, if it's properly wired or if it's not.
If it, I don't, I think that might detect a broken neutral.
If you come across a broken neutral and you don't know a lot of electricity,
stop, pick up the phone, call the electrician and come and get it.
Because a broken, because electricity works in a circle.
And if you have a broken neutral, it can actually activate power onto the neutral side as well.
So you'll have 120 on both sides and it can blow the shit up.
Like you're a TV or you're appliances.
So, but you want to call an electrician for that because that gets a little bit more dangerous.
So yeah, so you want to know what kind of wire you're having in your house.
You can almost guess based on when your house was built and the county codes.
So testing the outlet after all I said, that's the little device you plug in there.
It's pretty simple.
The electrical panel, basically you just want to, you can scan that the IR camera,
surge protectors, just use them.
I mean, I don't, is there really, I mean, if you're lightning strike, it protects shit,
but yeah, it's just, they're just good to have.
Actually, I should do that.
You know what, I'm going to put that down because that's very important for computers.
Yeah.
You need specialized ones for computers.
Yeah.
Well, you should actually, with computers, you should have the battery backup.
So you're right, exactly.
Yeah.
So check your switches.
Again, that's more of just the IR scan,
circuit breakers, the IR scan, I'll show you that as well.
Understand the color of wires.
It's pretty simple, red and black, usually power wires, white and sometimes gray.
Though I've never seen it, could be the common wires.
Orange and red means, oh no, red.
Orange means it's a wire, it's an outlet that's either controlled by a switch,
because you know when you have the switch and the lamp comes on, that's an orange wire.
Or you can also use an orange wire to a three-way switch.
A three-way switch is two switches and a light fixture, that's three.
That should do the traveler wire.
So you probably don't want to delve into the three-way switch unless you got,
well, yeah, YouTube, so go ahead and do it.
You can actually solve some problems with that.
What else?
Oh, GFIs.
So GFI's are really good.
You can either have a GFI breaker in your panel,
or you have GFI outlets in your kitchen in the bathrooms.
It's GFCI now.
It's Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.
Basically, if you're within six feet of a water source,
you either want a GFI outlet or you want a GFI breaker.
Now, in your kitchen, well, bathrooms only have one outlet,
in your kitchen, you could install one GFI.
Oh, that's the thing with the little buttons.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then the rest of the outlets you put on, on the low,
downstream from that GFI is protected by that GFI.
There's a couple different ways you can do it.
The GFI's like 12 bucks, the switch is like six, just by the GFI.
Oh, inspect the extension cords.
We all learned to do like an extension cord around this.
It really kind of messes them up.
So just inspect your extension cords on a regular basis.
Oh, you guys are testing GFI.
So to test the GFI, you hit the test button.
And then you hear a click, you hit the reset button, it's good.
And then upgrade the wiring.
If you got bad wiring, upgrade it.
So yeah, so there's a lot of stuff we can talk about, the electricity.
I'm kind of like, I kind of just want to hit the basics right now.
And maybe we go a little bit more into detail.
Yeah.
So you can see we got, I think that's everything, actually.
Yeah.
So yeah, electricity is, oh, that's what I want to say.
If your breaker panel is not marked properly, take a Saturday, get your wife, your better half,
your whatever, and shut one breaker off, find out what's not working, write it down.
Turn that one back on, turn the next one off, find out what's not working, shut it down.
And then find out what it is and write it down.
And then that way you can have somewhat of at least a loose description of what breakers feed what.
So, and I do recommend shut the breaker off when you work with electricity.
Sometimes I do it sometimes I don't, it just depends on the situation,
but I've done electrical work for like forever.
My arm has to go numb one time though.
Yeah.
No, no, I was working on a dryer.
And I didn't rise with the bus bars, with the power wires coming into it and connect to that.
It hit, it hit my hand and like literally made my arm go numb for a while.
Arc flash is, you probably won't get into that in the home maintenance, but I've seen guys go
blind, I'd lose their sight for like a day with an arc flash.
They can be pretty nasty or can kill you too, but more than likely it's not,
it's the amps that kill you.
Yeah.
So, if you're working on wires that has no draw on it, you're less likely to get seriously injured,
especially with 120 or 110, 120.
Obviously, it flashed in my head, the Mr. Mob thing from a Dessa Hoffman movie.
It's like, oh yeah, it's 110, 120, 130, it's like 150.
You didn't know what it was doing, it was hard to act up.
It was funny though, Dessa Hoffman, you gotta love that guy.
Yeah, so that's basically the basics of electricity.
That's your maintenance.
If you do your maintenance properly, you probably won't have any problems.
Electricity is pretty standard.
I mean, it's just, it's not something that's heavy into maintenance.
So, if you use it every once a year, once in 76 months, you might go trouble-free with electricity.
Oh, and if a breaker does trip, two things.
One, don't try and reset it until you figure out why it tripped.
That's kind of important because that's where an arc flash can kind of get you at.
Don't ever look at the breaker when you're resetting it, you just look away.
And if it is tripped, because a breaker's got three positions, it's got off, tripped, and on.
Obviously, on is to the right, off is to the left, tripped is in the middle.
But when you set that breaker, you gotta turn it all the way off and then turn it back on.
It's pretty simple.
But don't look at it and try to figure out why to trip it before you do that.
I think that's it.
I am done.
Cool.
So, all right, good night everybody.
See you next week.
Have a nice Christmas because we will not do the next one until after Christmas.
Yeah, it'll be the day after.
Yeah.
So, ho, ho, ho.
Have a good night.
See you next week.
Good bye.
