What this episode is about
The discussion explores how the lack of fulfilling personal relationships and sexual interactions among certain demographic groups, particularly millennials, may contribute to their public expressions of discontent and bizarre behaviors, as observed in anti-ICE protests. It suggests that personal happiness and societal engagement are intertwined, with a broader commentary on the importance of meaningful connections and personal projects in fostering a more positive outlook on life.
Key takeaways
- Euphoria from intimacy drives self-improvement; absence of it fuels societal discontent and chaos.
- Idle hands indeed create devils; hobbies once anchored lives, now they languish in apathy and screen time.
- Shaved heads as empowerment? It's a cosmetic rebellion, often regretted and rarely attractive in the long run.
- Young adults today prioritize protest over personal growth; has activism replaced actual engagement in life?
- Narcissism thrives on social media; authenticity is lost behind the lens of self-promotion and filtered realities.

Full transcript with timestamps
I have another theory. I accept everything you just said and I have I want to add something to it. I mentioned this the other day sort of tongue and cheek, but I actually do think it's a real dynamic. I don't think any of these people are having sex.
Yes, I, really, don't., I, think, it's, not, it's not coincidental that all these women are obese and unattractive with multiple piercings, no makeup, skin issues that like I'm sorry, but if you are like if you're having positive interactions with men where like you're going to bed with them and they're treating you well and they're, you know, you're enjoying it and you feel the euphoria that comes after that, you're not going out there and looking at all these men as the devil enemies who you want to hurt and kill and top. And same for the guys.
These young men, we know that there's huge swats of them who are not dating. They're not having sex with women. They're not drinking anymore. There's no release. It's not like when we were young in the late8s, you know, where it was like a life of debauchery, but we were all happy. Uh there's something wrong with these people today. These these are mostly like millennials, late end millennials who I think all of them have deeply unhappy personal lives and it's manifesting on the streets of Minneapolis.
Oh,, 100%, agreed., And, you, know,, you, need relationships. You need to be attracted to somebody. By the way, when you're attracted to somebody, uh you want them to be attracted to you. And thus, you don't want to get arrested and held in a tank overnight because you want to be with your honey bunny and things of that nature. And also, you want to keep yourself together. You want to cut your hair. You want to lose 5 lbs. You want to get a good job. Like, you want them to be attractive. That's number one. Number two, this sounds corny, but people used to have hobbies. Like 30 30-year-old guys were restoring a car in the garage. They had a project. Women had a project. Women did things. They knitted and they sewed and they built tree houses and they they were they gardened and they were like physically engaged book clubs
right?, They, were, just, engaged, with things. And when you're in the middle if you really think about it
when, you're, really, in, the, middle, of something, like I'll do a lot of remodels. When I'm in the middle of a remodel, that's where I'm at. That's where my head's at. That's where I'm thinking about. That's where my spare time is. If someone said, "Hey, let's go out for uh gay lives matter and protest on Saturday." I go, "No, I got to be at the Home Depot." I'm picking up sheetrock. I I can't do that. You know what I mean? It really
gay, lives, matter. Well,, whatever, the, next, group, is., The point is is I think I invented the ultimate pin.
I, think, so,, too. Mark, Ruffalo,, I, got, you. You, and, I, will, start, it, in, our, spare time.
Mark,, I, got, your, next, pin, next, for, the Golden Globes. But yeah, you you really look, the devil makes work for idle hands. That sounds corny, but it is so true. Like, you need something to live for. You need a project. You need things you're invested in. Also, you need things to lose. You know what I mean? Like, I'm a homeowner. I don't want to go out and get injured by an ICE officer and not be able to pay my mortgage or get sued by somebody if I throw a rock at a van. You know, I got a house. I don't want to lose my house. Like, you need to own something. You need to have relationships. You need to have hobbies.
You need to be engaged. These people are not engaged. It's edibles, celibacy, and video games.
Mhm., And, leaning, into, unattractiveness. We've seen this. There's a thing after Trump won um another protest wave and now here all these women start shaving their heads, which I guarantee you sisters is not the answer. No one's life, no female ever got better after she shaved her head. And it's like they think it's a form of empowerment. Meanwhile, it's like hair is is considered very attractive by men. It's something that kind of softens you. Like they're looking to be like hard and nasty and even grosser than they started. I'm going to give you an example of this woman who wants us to believe she's super empathetic, but by the way, she doesn't even know Renee Good's proper name. who's the woman who was killed in that ice uh incident after she tried to run him over. Listen to 21.
She's got the long hair. She's shaving it. And she writes on here, "We watched Renee Cook get brutally gunned down by ICE." It's not. And she So, she wrote it. She took the time to write it.
We're, just, watching, her, with, the, sad face shave her hair off. She's getting progressively upset. Yes. because you're shaving off your hair, which doesn't look good. You look like a man now. That makes most women upset. So, they think this is an act of defiance, Adam. I think it's an act of foolishness and and one literally every woman regrets when she does it.
Well,, again,, back, to, narcissism., Like, you can shave your head. I've shaved my head. I went one year in Halloween when I was 19 as Mr. tea, but I didn't film myself shaving my head and then put it out there so people thought I was a a hero. So, keep in mind, everyone who's doing whatever it is they're doing, the only reason we know about is because before they set up the razor, they set up the camera and then they film themselves and they put it out there. So, it's all a narcissistic disorder. Also, think about the narcissism. I've had so many I've seen so many videos of so many women who are dumpy in their 50s and in horrible shape and nobody wants to bang them and then they do a video going fellas sorry the vision is closed until after Trump and it's like that like it' be like me making a video going you know what supermodels no more blowing me if Camala Harris is elected Okay.
Do you hear that, Claudia Schiffer? Yes. Sorry. Yes., Okay., Here, is, It's, not, exactly, that woman, but it is somebody who I think claims to be a woman. And this just gives you a feel, a window into the mentality of what we're dealing with out there. The ICE agents. Look at SAT 23. I'm going to have to describe this one for the audience. S3 for the listening audience involves Let's watch it.
I'm, very, privileged., I, am, white. Oh, god. I, have, a, great, community, and, I, have, a beard over my head as well as job security.
An, actual, beard. I, work, at, a, Renaissance, festival, or, a medieval festival.
Of, course, you, don't, berries. But, when, you, spend, time, in, the, 12th, or 16th centuries you are escaping reality. And it's hard to build your life around a fantasy that is still deeply imshed with reality. And it's jarring. It's jarring to be looking at what we are dealing with in the United States and then to disappear to 12th century England. I have felt guilty for working in this industry through all this time, especially when I want to be on the front lines. when I want I can't physically be on the front lines. I am not just a liability. I'm a target because of my size. I'm in better shape for other things in that kind of capacity.
But it's been a minute since I had resigned myself to taking care of me in order to be able to make the next big fight. And that next big fight is here. So I have to launch my plan. And my plan is to launch my time traveler event.
Yeah., Narcissism. Yeah. But, also Yeah., Is, it, is, it, narcissism, or, is, it just mental illness? Like I think there's a fair amount of just raw mental illness out there.
Well,, me, I, think, mental, illness, is, sort of narcissistic or can just lead to that which is a a a sense of grandiosity. Right. So you think everyone is hanging on your every syllable. So I, you know thinking you're Napoleon is a mental illness, but it's also grandiosity, but it's also narcissistic. So maybe they all sort of swim in the same pool.
You, know what, I, was, thinking, about, Megan, though? I I had a I had a bizarre thought, but a thousand years from now when they study our civilization they're going to see tons and tons of footage of dumb bearded cows with bad frames making stupid proclamations over and over and over. And then some historian a thousand years from now is going to go, "We need Where's Abe Lincoln? Where's um where is Ben Franklin? Where is Thomas Jefferson?" I want to see some of their film and they'd go, "Oh, none of that exists. We just have dumb shits talking about nothing in a minivan. We don't They do nothing. We have nothing." Like, you don't have five minutes
of, Thomas, Jefferson?, No., No,, they didn't. No, he has nothing. We have a drawing, address., We, have a, drawing, of it. But we have 200,000 hours of these dumb cows talking into their cameras.
