#227 Pretending To Sound Smart Is The Best Way To Sound Dumb 02.10.2025 50:54
Wherein I probably unironically prove the title true by describing how I have never been a good liar and I expect most of you aren’t good liars either and if you think you are, there are probably lots of people who disagree but are too nice to tell you. This one is longer than usual but it felt good and went by quickly. Keep it simple, stupid. No refunds.
#226 Why Do I Care About Candace Owens??? 01.10.2025 45:55
Wherein I take an existential journey in answer to a simple question asked by an old colleague from high school. There is talk about objective truth. There is talk about a Pigeon named Porky. If you like me, you won’t like the ending. If you hate me, you might. If I call him Bill, his name is actually Phil. No refunds.
#225 Candace Owens Officially Sucks 30.09.2025 30:54
Wherein I rant about not being good at team sports because teams always let me down. For instance, team conservative has seemingly lost all contact with reality & simply ignores any evidence that they don’t like while refusing to back any of their claims with evidence. The goat ate my baloney sandwich. I can’t prove It, but I can at least make a good case. I run out of breath in this one. Its...
#224 RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA 29.09.2025 37:19
Wherein I examine the idea that Americans have been successfully indoctrinated to believe that other countries & people are “our enemies”, and have thusly lost touch with their own ability to discern right from wrong regardless of source. “All The Presidents Men” by Sean Stone is the starting point. I should have mentioned that first. No refunds.
#223 The Isolating Nature Of Rationality 27.09.2025 39:20
Wherein I rant about my frustration with friends & associates who seem committed to denial rather than being fair and looking at the larger, completely obvious & objective picture. If you think this post is about you, I promise, there are many of you, maybe even most of you. This is why I am friends with plants and critters. I’m not trying to upset anyone. I just acknowledge reality and le...
#222 Clarity, Doubt & Grifters 27.09.2025 33:11
Wherein I argue that people who are creating confusion & doubt rather than clarity and understanding are probably up to no good. You shouldn’t pay them. I wasn’t going to upload this one, but then I remembered that only 4 people ever listen anyway. No refunds. https://youtu.be/fKZCTzzV95I?si=0S06ADa3UnQZYtqQ
#220 How To Detect A False Flag 24.09.2025 31:40
Wherein I remind you that you have the greatest technology in the universe pre-installed, in your own body at birth & then, as diplomatically as I can, implore you to use it. Farts will be used poetically. No refunds. https://youtu.be/nFbSMBdRHyk?si=a_juWzWPNN309fDH
#219 Thou Shalt Not Name Drop Jesus 24.09.2025 24:47
Wherein I wonder if the commandment to not take the lords name in vain was mostly directed at those wishing to slap his brand on their building for the sake of VAINity and street cred. I don’t imagine Jesus wanted his name up in lights. Principles, baby, principles. A rose by any other name… Some obvious irony here. No refunds. https://youtu.be/VRTSFiDgxxY?si=69OVv504VD_IGMVz
#218 From Charlie to Jesus to Objective Good 23.09.2025 32:40
Wherein I sloppily argue that being more like Charlie would mean being more like Jesus which would mean not using Christianity as a blunt force instrument which can lead to more Tyler Robinsons. Best case scenario is to focus on the teachings of Christ rather than using his name in vain, as is so tempting to do. I do tangents and I don’t edit. No refunds. https://youtu.be/CMhPQmGcaLU?si=TUmVOxx9c3...
#217 Charlie Changed Me 22.09.2025 39:12
Wherein I examine the glaring contrast between the Christian reaction to a violent assassination of one of their own and the violent teeth gnashing & rioting that happens on the left when anyone so much as whispers a wholesome word. It’s as if God is literally smacking us on the head with the easiest possible choice. I know what choice I am making. White people are good. No refunds
#216 Candace Is Going Crazy & I Know Why 19.09.2025 34:13
Wherein I argue that Chosen Tribalists have launched a full frontal physical and psychological assault on any Christian who effectively spreads Christianity. They have successfully used curriculums, algorithms and economic pressure to create a generation of Autonomous Zoomer Zombies, fully weaponized, to fight the war for them. Not they have intentionally hijacked the “free speech” conversation fr...
#214 The Banality Of Evil 17.09.2025 49:53
Wherein I argue that the fight between good & evil looks less like a Hollywood Blockbuster & more like a Low Budget Indy Film & ultimately, sadly, more like a Home Video. Aka, It’s boring old you & I who have to step up and do the work. Incomplete Candace analysis thrown in at no extra charge. No refunds. https://youtu.be/jio9Du0HQ-4?si=_LQpB3I4LyQRd3e0
#213 That Could’ve Been Me 15.09.2025 58:14
Wherein I explore the darkest timeline, in which I could’ve not only been Charlie Kirk, but also Tyler Robinson. Far more frightening than dying for a cause is murdering someone as a virtue signal to escape a birthright label you never deserved. Poisonous curriculums & algorithms have turned children who should have had wonderful lives into little monsters, hell bent on destroying all that is...
#209 We Must Win This War 12.09.2025 33:11
Wherein I demand to know the names of every single person who poisoned the mind of Tyler Robinson. Including the owners & managers of DISCORD, a word that may as well mean bloody revolution. I demand that every algorithm be exposed. I get ugly and emotional. I could have edited it out, but I welcome your mocking. They mocked the assassination of Charlie. I’d be happy to be in that club. No ref...
#208 Vengeance For Charlie Kirk 11.09.2025 41:41
Wherein I argue that good people must respond and bad people must repent or pay. Evil must not go unchecked.
#205 Donald J Trump vs Cooties United 07.09.2025 29:50
Wherein I argue that “You Have Cooties So I Can’t Talk To You” might be a decent policy for a 3rd grader in a lower middle class school, but it’s a terrible policy for the leader of the world’s foremost super power. Special shout out to Covid Cowards. No refunds. https://youtu.be/D5CoVzcC71I?si=xWwF8V2G49T-8O9X
#204 The Beauty Of Bad Tattoos 04.09.2025 33:20
Wherein I give a bunch of reasons why bad tattoos are beautiful. That’s all. No refunds.
#203 Charity Is No Substitute For Love 30.08.2025 47:19
Wherein I compare Fake Bay Area charities with the one started by my mother as cover for abandoning her children who maybe possibly abandoned her too, if that is even a thing. Real love and charity are vastly different from the things most claim them to be. Both are hands on. Impossible as it may seem, this recording is heavier and gayer than usual. No refunds. https://youtu.be/Rs6CR8tNn3Y?si=qAxI...
#202 Don’t Like, Don’t Share, Don’t Subscribe 28.08.2025 37:00
Wherein I share my experience in regards to online popularity algorithms & how mine mostly align with meatworld. Aka, conformity pressure isn’t limited to online communication. Ultimately, the only way to really find like minds is to express the contents of one’s mind without regards to how it will be received, especially with unpopular points of view. Heavy self analysis alert. No refunds.
#201 If AI Can Do Your Job, Your Job Sucks 28.08.2025 45:18
Wherein I ponder the whole concept of jobs, which are good, which are bad, which should be done by robots and which should be done by humans with robots. Ultimately we land in the realm of sex workers and personal AI sex slaves and how they relate to accountability for the decisions made by individual human beings. I steer everything towards individual accountability, as usual, because you are onl...
#200 Kapparot aka Jewish Chicken Sacrifice 28.08.2025 42:11
Wherein I compare the barbaric act of pretending to transfer one’s sins onto a chicken in order to kill it & be absolved of said sins with the age old leftist tradition of confession by projection & calling others racists, nazis etc.. in order commit unspeakable ills upon them with total justification. I also wrestle with the fact that I executed a mother of probably 5 baby rats out of dut...
#199 Will Franken Ain’t Shootin’ Straight 26.08.2025 43:18
Wherein I unnecessarily publicly respond to a misrepresentation of my views and the nature of my relationship & communication with a former colleague of mine because he has cowardly chosen to not allow me to respond on his video which misrepresents our communication & my positions on art and the tools collectively known as AI. This is how the internet works I guess. It would have been pref...
#198 It’s All Devo’s Fault 24.08.2025 45:31
Wherein I describe the eye opening experience of watching the new Devo documentary on Netflix in which I realize that they admittedly subversively brainwashed me to deny the beauty of existence, turn my back on family & friends, & adopt an attitude of bitter superiority. Yes, they literally spell out, step by step, how and why they literally targeted young boys to recruit into a world of d...
#197 A.I. is DEAD 22.08.2025 39:37
Wherein I proclaim that AI is dead, it always has been, and always will be, much like a hammer, a wrench, or your attempts to claim otherwise. Those who try to claim it is anything other than a tool to be used by human beings are either stupid or actively trying to decieve you. This is not an indictment of tools, rather a celebration of those who invent tools and use them to make life even more wo...
#196 Copyright is Bad For Art & Artists 21.08.2025 52:01
Wherein I argue that rather than encouraging and rewarding innovation, copyright punishes & robs growth & innovation from inventors & creators while handing over great power to mob-like protection rackets & gatekeepers. I also suggest that Spotify start charging artists for storage and advertising. I basically take a dump on the whole imaginary concept of “intellectual property”. S...
