COVID-19 Part Three: UNMASKED – EP 122
COVID-19 Part Three: UNMASKED
Closing out their three-part COVID-19 series, the guys trace the vaccine rollout from the record-breaking development timeline through uneven global distribution, where wealthy nations secured surplus doses while parts of Africa saw vaccination rates near 5 percent. They cover the rise of variants (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Omicron), disputed treatments like dexamethasone and ivermectin, and the backlash Joe Rogan faced for discussing his own COVID treatment on air. Jorge’s wife, a nurse, contributes a firsthand account of working the frontlines, including PPE shortages, hospital vaccine mandates tied to funding, and lowered nursing exam standards during staffing shortfalls.
A large chunk of the episode digs into the money trail: the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet expansion, the CARES Act and other relief packages, an estimated 136 billion dollars in Paycheck Protection Program fraud, and pharmaceutical profits led by Pfizer’s reported 90 billion dollars in vaccine sales. The hosts also list real government incentive programs used to encourage vaccination, including free burgers in New Jersey, a joint giveaway in Washington State, lottery prizes in Ohio and Hong Kong, and lockdowns targeting the unvaccinated in Austria and Germany.
The conspiracy segment covers the lab leak theory, with the hosts discussing the Wuhan Institute of Virology and gain-of-function research as central to the debate over whether the virus emerged accidentally or was engineered and released deliberately. They also discuss and speculate about 5G towers, vaccine microchips, and the Great Reset, a theory drawing on real World Economic Forum rebuilding proposals that the hosts frame as evidence of a push toward centralized global control. They close by noting the hosts are split on origin (accident versus intentional release) but unified in viewing the pressure campaign around vaccination as the part of the story they find most troubling.
- COVID-19 vaccines were developed in roughly seven months, compared to a historical average of seven to nine years for vaccine development
- The hosts discuss reports that by mid-2021 wealthy nations like Israel, the UK, and the US had vaccinated most of their adult populations while some parts of Africa saw vaccination rates around 5 percent
- Government vaccination incentive programs included free burgers in New Jersey and New York, free joints in Washington State, lottery prizes in Ohio and Moscow, and a shot at a luxury condo in Hong Kong
- The Federal Reserve expanded its balance sheet to roughly 8.9 trillion dollars by April 2022 through asset purchases tied to pandemic-era stimulus
- SBA inspectors estimated roughly 136 billion dollars in fraud within the Paycheck Protection Program
- The hosts cite reported pharmaceutical earnings from COVID-19 vaccines, including roughly 90 billion dollars for Pfizer and 25 billion dollars for Moderna

Hey guys, welcome back to the Conspiracy Podcast. Coming from you from a rainy day. You can hear that trickle trickle in the background. It’s nice. I mean, it’s better than being hot out here. It’s [bleep] soothing. It’s It’s actually It’s like the white noise I put on for sleep. It’s beautiful. It does feel better, too. It does. In the last couple times. Oh, it’s been brutal cuz as you know, like we are trying to get a studio, but right now There you go. And it’s [bleep] hot out here. But can you imagine like time from now and we’re so massive. We have this massive studio with lights AC.
It’s like 60° and I’m like, “Woo!” And then we get comments like, “Man, I wish I missed the old days. I miss the old days. Where’s the cricket at? You know what I was I was thinking about we’re going to have to edit in the crickets and and actually I I got upset cuz I was looking at one of our posts and it’s like you know what’s like what you know what’s your the one conspiracy you believe in and I I think back to our first episode which is the moon landing. Yeah. And I just I’m so annoyed at myself for what I said. Yeah.
Because it’s so fake. Wait, the moon? Oh, you went you went back on it. I I Yeah, you went back. Didn’t we do a update on it? We did an update, right? I think we did an update and maybe maybe I like, you know, correct myself, but I I just was thinking about it like, God, how’s how foolish was I, you know? And you know what’s crazy is that is our number one listen to episode. Oh yeah. And people probably hate me for it, but a lot of it is because it’s our first Yeah. The story. It is. But then also like in that post where we were asking like what’s your number one conspiracy?
A lot of it is the moon. Yeah. everyone. So, so it is by survey one of the top. Uh, crazy idea. Okay. What if we just redo it? You know how they do reboots like like it’s like a new Spider-Man. But we have we had to be different though. Hi, this is Steve uh Tim and uh George. I mean cuz remember we did this we did the walkthrough of all the programs the Saturn the whatever all those programs. What if we just rebooted it and re redo the whole episode and it’s like delete the first episode? I actually don’t hate the idea. Yeah, I mean, we’ll see.
I I don’t hate it. I I would like to I mean, obviously, since we haven’t had video for everything, I wish we could have a video for everything. That’s true. True. And I know everyone wants the video. All of our Discord people are like, “Please get video back.” Trust me, we want to like It’s not a It’s not like we’re holding it back from you like this. No, it’s just a much harder setup. It is. harder and it takes longer. There’s more editing, more money. We need We need a studio. It needs to be soundproofed. We used to record Eric’s old like uh kind of like warehouse space.
And even then, we s we tried to soundproof the walls. Mhm. It’s just the podcast space isn’t like some [bleep] ultra lucrative [bleep] zone, you know? Yeah. Apparently the top the only ones that do it full-time are the top 02%. Yeah. Wow. of podcasts. Yeah. Yeah. I think there’s I mean the the stats are there’s there’s over 4 million podcasts. Yeah. And so like the the top 02% is like that’s like 100 podcasts. Yeah. So we appreciate you guys tuning in. Yeah. Hell yeah. We are in the top.1% just so you know. We’re getting there. We’re close. Yeah. We’re getting there. Uh so this is part three of co um as as we like to say don’t start here.
No. God know. Go back. So if if you’re just starting and you’re like, “Oh, I found a co one.” Go back to part one. Uh because we went into the history of pandemics. That was pretty cool. Which is actually interesting. A lot of interesting information there. Remember the black death and the one of us has to be that for Halloween. The black plague doctor. I don’t like it’s something about it like makes me not happy. I was looking for one, but I know you sent me literally right after we right after we recorded sends me like a costume. legit like from the time Hollywood authentic signed by some like old plague.
Uh so uh in the first episode we went over the history of pandemics. What then we noticed was a playbook. The pandemic playbook. Yeah. It’s a thing. It is. It’s it’s like a script. Yeah. Yeah. Uh and then we went into actually what started to happen in Wuhan part two. Yes. and kind of roll out of the disease. I don’t want you know not the disease the virus the virus and how it started to spread etc. And then we left off in December of 2020 as the world fasttracked multiple vaccines into production in what was the fastest development of a vaccine in human history in the history of literal mankind.
I think talked about I think the a the the the previous like fastest time was like seven years years I think in uh the 60s right the month maybe it was something like that yeah but the average is seven to nine years okay that’s what it is okay the the fast one was four okay the average is seven months seven months which is like that’s that’s sketch that’s right it’s a little sketch yeah so here’s what we’re going to do in this episode we’re going to go over the uh distribution of vaccines okay uh how that went Mhm. Then also there’s the introduction to variance.
Oh my god. Delta, Omnicro, Alpha, Beta, Gam. All the Why is it always the Greek letters? It’s like it’s always Greek. Yes. And then I have I have great section which are the weird things that different governments did. Oh my god. I know exactly what you’re talking about. So [bleep] funny. It’s I I didn’t even know some of these. It’s so sleazy. car salesman is like it’s the worst. So, we did talk about the burgers from back the fries and the guy’s like, “Oh, you don’t want these fries, you loser.” But I have 10 of the greatest. They’re not the greatest. They’re It’s the worst.
Outrageous. Uh and then we’re going to get into the section on money. Yeah, cash flow, baby. Money was a big Oh, yeah. Big big thing. And then uh the last probably hour or so of this will be the conspiracies. You got in breather. Yeah. So uh just imagine that you now have the vaccine. You have a semblance of the vaccine. You’re pretty confident this is going to work. You now have six, seven billion people on Earth. Mhm. How do you distribute? How do you Yeah. What’s the What’s the supply chain look like for this? Uh, in addition, the early vaccines had to be ultra cold storage.
Oh, like so like we’re talking like nitro nitrogen liquid nitrogen type storage. So it’s not like you just had a bunch of crates. No. And you just like with the bananas going to Paris on the back of an F250. They’re like, “Fuck it.” Exactly. So it it was a major logistical endeavor or problem. You know what I mean? So um but gradually through early 2021 millions of people rolled up their sleeves and by mid 2021 wealthy nations like Israel, the UK and the US had vaccinated the majority of adult population. Hospitalizations and deaths among the vaccinated groups dropped even when infections continue to circulate. Meaning there is evidence that if you had the vaccine, you’d still got the illness, but there’s less deaths.
See, then this is this is where it gets super convoluted, you know, and we I think we touched upon this in in episode two is like what is the like there was no like proper like the administration side of like identifying like the statistics. Yeah. Mhm. Like, you know, we we did touch on this, like, you know, how do you identify someone who’s died specifically of COVID and not these other ulterior factors like these these pre-existing conditions that you have and then now and then and the same thing goes for the flip side, too. It’s like deaths and survival. It’s like the same it’s the same question, right?
It’s like okay like now are they counting deaths as like oh well no it was it was they had you know heart disease or they had xyz and it wasn’t co whereas before it was co it’s it’s hard to it’s hard to know it’s so all I’m saying is I’m not saying this is this is inaccurate or factual I have no idea saying how are they quantifying the data. Yeah that’s right. Well, we’re going to go over a little bit of what different uh treatments there were and then and then there it then leads into that debate. Uh and then in addition, we actually I don’t know if you guys all know this, but Jorge’s wife is a nurse.
So, she was literally there like literally and so she wrote up, you know, a good email about her experiences. And so, we’re also going to go into that at that moment. You know what I mean? Front line. Yeah. Exactly. And and my my uncle’s my uncle’s wife, she’s also a nurse. And dude, she was like I mean working like a [bleep] slave. Like legit slave. She was working 18our days like non-stop every day, seven days a week. It wasn’t like crazy. It was crazy. No. So, but the vaccine roll out was highly uneven globally. Rich countries bought up most of the early supply where poor countries were left waiting in the wings.
An international initiative called Kovac aimed to distribute vaccines equally, but it struggled to secure enough doses and funding by mid 2021. While countries like Canada had enough vaccines to cover their entire population times two, they literally had this is like double double. Other areas like certain parts of Africa, they had vaccination rates of 5%. So then that just kind of opens the question of you know poor versus rich. I mean it’s the age old the age old question. Were these all made and created by uh pharmaceutical companies in the US. Oh 100%. Yeah. Fizer Madna um [bleep] Johnson and Johnson like all the big boys.
And China had their own and like Russia had their own. Remember we went over a little bit they called it some stupid name weird Sputnik. Come on. Like, get over it, guys. It’s been 60 years. Like, chill out. Uh, there there were some there were some countries that actually produced over and above their population. So, then they gave them to surrounding countries, India and China, on like freezy on the free or like on like a you know, that’s a great question. I don’t know. They probably sold it. Good question. Yeah, they probably sold it. I mean, it’s it’s that’s the sad part about like society.
They’re like, “We want to help you for a price.” Yeah. It’s going to cost you though. But unfortunately though, by the time everybody felt a little confident about the roll out of vaccines, something called the Delta variant hit. And that Delta variant per officials was something that the vaccines could not combat. Meaning, we did all this work and then all of a sudden now it’s a different thing. And it was almost like I remember coming out and going like eczema isn’t always obvious, but it’s real and so is the relief from Egliss. After an initial dosing phase, about 4 in and 10 people taking Eglas achieved its relief and clear or almost clear skin at 16 weeks.
And most of those people maintain skin that’s still more clear at 1 year with monthly dosing. Eglas likismap LBKZ a 250 mg per 2 milll injection is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds or 40 kg with moderate to severe eczema also called attopic dermatitis that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin or topicals or who cannot use topical therapies. Epglys can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. Don’t use if you’re allergic to eply. Allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. Eye problems can occur. Tell your doctor if you have new or worsening eye problems.
You should not receive a live vaccine when treated with EPLS. Before starting Eplas, tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. Searching for real relief? Ask your doctor about Eplas and visit eplas.y.com or call 1800 lily rx or 1800545979. You set the table, put on a playlist. Even made the lasagna from scratch and now you’re wearing it. OxyClean Maxforce spray tackles tough setin stains the first time. Adulting is hard. Fighting stains shouldn’t be. OxyClean Maxforce. It’s not clean unless it’s OxyClean. Jesus Christ. Like now you’re another vaccine. There’s Yes. And from a from a scientific perspective that does happen. I mean I’ll give you a classic example is cancer.
You know it’s a cancer mutates. And so it’s like you can’t like when when you try to combat a thing like a virus or a disease or something there’s a there’s a specific marker that you can identify that is like okay this is the bad thing. Yeah. It’s also the way like your immune system works. So like your immune system, the the white blood cells are like, “Okay, we know how to identify this thing by XYZ.” That’s how we know that this is the thing we need to attack. But if it changes and it mutates, your body’s like, “Oh, I’m not really sure what this thing, you know, I’m going to let it slide.” Like guy looks sketchy, but like, you know, we’re going to like, you know, we’re not like abuse the power here, the power structure.
And then and then, you know, so things just from a scientific perspective, that does happen. Yes. I don’t trust me. I’m not this is not me like advocating here. I’m just saying it took it does the problem is you have the fastest vaccine and when you [bleep] people start to question that and is it for money? The big pharmas are the ones that are making all the money, right? And then it’s like oh well now we’re going to need a second vaccine [bleep] booster. Yeah, right. Oh, that came later. Oh, that’s right. That did come later. And then all of this uh like parallel to this though the world kept working on different ways, different uh treatments, different things.
So it was like how do we fix this? Yes. Exactly. And on top of it, there were some people who just plain regardless of what they say, they’re just not going to trust the government. Yeah. Me. So what they’re going to do is they’re going to go a homeopathic route or they’re going to go a just [bleep] it. Let’s let it ride. Yeah. Let’s let it ride a Joe Rogan route. the [bleep] ivormectin route. There you go. But we’ll get into that. Yeah, it actually works. It actually works. It’s like also and this goes this likens to our previous episode about the phases of a pandemic and how you start to go looking outwards into other solutions.
You know what I mean? Like now granted a thousand years ago they were doing the incense candles. What’s with the incense? Oh yes, if you breathe in good smells Yes, you’re [bleep] Gucci. But there were some and I’m just going to go over a few that came out and there were a one of the first breakthroughs was finding that a cheap steroid and I’m going to butcher these names. One is dexamethasone uh and that was good. No, that was good. It was pretty good. Yeah, that was good. And that was found to reduce mortality rates in in people basically if you get co you know I mean it didn’t help CO but it’s like prevent you from dying.
There you go. Yes, which is like the goal. Yeah, exactly. Try no die. Uh, this was discovered in the UK’s recovery trial in June 2020 and then adopted worldwide. Um, some say it actually saved hundreds of thousands of lives by basically calming inflammatory responses of COVID. Okay. Yeah. Uh, other treatments like rem deceifer Yeah. And antiviral showed modest benefits shortening your hospital stays. Um and then there were various antibbody therapies were developed to help patients in early stages to develop antibodies to neutralize it. Yeah. And and look and the reason I think that people because from a standpoint of like you look at look at the way the human body is engineered but like your body is actually built to stop foreign foreign bodies.
it. That’s what it’s built to. And and that’s why if you look at the the generic the normal vaccine is like you give the body dead version of a thing and then it knows like okay this is a thing I need to destroy and it destroys it. Mhm. I’m just saying that people taking you know these antibbody treatments or these more holistic type of treatments there’s a I understand why they’re doing it. Makes sense. Yeah. Absolutely. Uh then there were some alternative choices and one of which is Ivormekin. Yeah. Uh, it’s an antiparasitic drug that’s been used safely in humans and animals. Yes. For decades.
During the CO 19 pandemic, it became the center of controversy after some researchers suggested it might have antiviral potential. And early lab studies showed that that at very high doses, it could suppress the virus in uh cell cultures. Yeah. But then then you got made to be a [bleep] piece of [bleep] if you like were taking it. That’s right. Uh this led to widespread off label use meaning they just started to get just getting random just get it as much as you can especially in areas that limited in vaccines. They were like okay let’s see if I can get this online. Yeah. Uh and actually I even have one of the uh uh original I saw your post in my cabinet.
It’s the horse one. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because it’s obviously it’s used in humans and animals. Mhm. Yours was a And what’s the what’s funny too is uh I remember during the height of COVID I was like you know maybe I should take this [bleep] and then I got it from somebody and then uh the instructions are for a horse. So you have to like calculate it. I’m like okay weight. Yeah. So it’s like it’s like it’s like like I don’t even know the measurements but it’s like x amount for 400 lb. And I’m like okay. So yeah. See, like the ivormectin that I have is Ivormectton that I have is for humans.
I have a human variant of Ivormectton. Yeah. Where’d you get it? I got a prescription for it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Some small or poorly designed clinical trials seem to show benefits, but larger, more rigorous studies generally did not find enough evidence to move it forward in any sort of mass production. Yeah, you can move seven months on the [bleep] vaccine. Totally totally kosh totally copathetic. So the FDA and who so the world health organization concluded there wasn’t enough proof to recommended as a treatment. But they can recommend the vaccine as a treatment. There’s enough there’s enough dollar proof, baby. There’s enough financial proof.
Exactly. But in 2021 it uh blew up because Joe Rogan publicly shared that he used it and uh it was his own treatment in testing positive. He pushed back as he was mocked for uh and they they put it in headlines that he was using a horse dewormer dewormer and so he pushed back on that a lot. Anyways, I remember that. But see here’s the thing is like okay who cares? You’re I’m allowed to put I’m allowed to That’s the important thing. Put whatever the [bleep] I want to in my body and I shouldn’t be forced to put any and that’s that too. See that’s the but the argument though is he’s the got the biggest platform on the planet and if for example if I went on and I had a million listeners I don’t know how many he has but let’s say I don’t know he’s got probably let’s say 10 million a month.
Yeah probably probably more. Probably more but let’s just say 10 million. And I went on and I said, “Shrooms, help me.” Well, he’s definitely said that. He says that all the time we homie says that [bleep] every podcast. But the the argument though is is that a responsible thing to do with the power that you have. Well, here’s the thing. There’s this lovely thing called the Constitution, you know, that super [bleep] awesome that it’s like it doesn’t matter. It’s it’s I’m allowed to say that like worked for me, right? It’s he it’s it’s different like it but the thing is like they were said I just slept it off like just sleep and like you know what I mean is that responsible [bleep] piece of [bleep] Yeah.
Sunshine remember that was actually a thing. Vitamin D. No, but here’s the thing is like they were like blackballing doctors like people who have went to school for 12 [bleep] years. They have a medical doc. They’re a medical doctor and they’re like, “Well, no, false information.” Like, and see, that’s why we that’s when we get into like, okay, what are we doing here? Yeah. What is false? What’s not false? Opinion. Yeah. Who’s who has the right to decide what’s false and not false? Is an opinion false? The fact checkers. Yeah. The randos like the meta facteers. [bleep] [bleep] Anyway, so that’s uh some of the developments that were happening.
Um a notable area of advancement was in understanding transmission and how it was spreading. Um initially there was confusion. We thought it was only you know through touch right at the very beginning about the six feet came in. Yeah. Yes. Exactly. And then don’t touch me [bleep] Yeah. And then it started to like keep going and then how it be airborne. Exactly. And people were getting hepailters uh the mask N95s like Yeah. Yeah. Um but people were fogging their house. Yes. So as the pandemic wore on, the virus itself did not remain static. We had talked about that where the viruses constantly mutate and given the tens of millions of infections.
It uh it’s a lot of mutation. Yeah. Ample opportunity to basically mutate. In late 2020, the first so-called variants occurred. One of the first ones was the alpha variant, also known as the UK Kent variant. had a bunch of mutations that made it about 50% more transmissible than the original strain. So, it was getting worse and like it was getting it was evolving. You got to think like a a virus just like any organism that is alive wants to survive. So, it’s like you have to change to survive. Adapt. Exactly. And I remember this is where it became a little bit scary because if it just kept it to me it was like if it can just keep evolving then we can never get ahead of it.
Yeah. And you know the alpha appeared to possibly have a higher fatality rate through uh older groups. Next came beta. Hey and this was first found in South Africa and then gamma was found in Brazil. These were concerning because they showed some ability to evade immunity and so we’ve now been vaccinated or at least a majority of us have been vaccinated. And then there you go. And then the biggest one, the biggest game changer of the variants was the Delta variant. First identified in India, it was extremely transmissible, about twice as contagious as the original virus. It was on par with chickenpox, which is crazy.
Chickenpox is wild. Like if Oh, yeah. Somebody in a house, everybody’s It’s gone. Exactly. Um Delta fueled hellish outbreaks. Uh India wave in spring of 2021. It swept through unvaccinated populations in the summer. Um now a lot of this is when I say unvaccinated, this is per reports from you know who. Yeah. Right. So super trustworthy. It’s hard to know like these words that are put into like if it truly was that. Yeah. which we brought up is like how are they quantifying this information? Yeah, it’s impos it’s it’s impossible to get 100% accurate information when it’s something that’s worldwide because you’re dealing with so many in such little time too.
It’s Yeah. And it’s like how do you know what’s accurate, what’s not accurate. Yeah. Now, China was a notable outlier through most of 2022. It continued what they called a zerocoid policy using mass testing, digital contact tracing, strict quarantines, and city-wide lockdowns to crush any outbreak whatsoever. This worked to keep their deaths really low, officially under 6,000 through 2021. But I don’t believe that. No. Yeah. So, I’m just going to tell you out the gate. I don’t believe that. Yeah. I don’t believe that. I believe that China wanted to contain their public relations. Yes, exactly. And so, um, by late 2022 though, uh, after Omicron came out, they abandoned the zero COVID policy.
What’s Omicron? I I kind of remember that one of the last one. It’s all based off the Greek alphabet which alpha beta alpha beta gamma delta epsilon zeta theta iota lambda mu lambda mu new zon pi oh omicron that’s right um I am strangely aroused right now I was in a fraternity [bleep] know this [bleep] I don’t it’s been a long time so I don’t remember all of it but yeah so they basically I think this is my opinion okay China was overwhelmed with the the final variant that they started started to report the real data. After a while, they just were like, “We can’t.” They knew they couldn’t get away with it because obviously China, you know, it’s it’s there is it’s like you’re imagine you’re you’re part of like uh you know, you’re in some like hoy toy [bleep] rich [bleep] community, right?
And you’re at the country club, you know, you’re obviously not going to like let the homies know at the country club that like, you know, you and the wife are having issues. you’re not. No, we’re [bleep] we’re [bleep] I remember at this time also there was a bunch of leaks. So people sending videos and and then that was circulating on social media and so yeah, they couldn’t hide it anymore. I mean, we also know what China does. It’s like remember when Jack Maul Jack Jack Maul is the is the he was a co-founder and CEO of Alibaba. Yeah. Which is like China Amazon. The dude’s worth like 3540 billion.
Yeah. Yeah. Talk [bleep] about [bleep] Xi Jinping and the [bleep] Communist Party. Homie disappears for a month. And then he comes back and he’s like, “Oh my god, they’re the best.” We need to That’s going to be a good one. Mhm. So, just to give you an idea, so through 2021 Mhm. China only reported officially 6,000 deaths and they have one out of a 1.5 billion people. Like, get the [bleep] out of town. Do you know what I mean? Like, that’s And it started there. That’s like meaning like that that that amount of like the percentage of mortality shift should have been extraordinarily high. So, but by 2022 and 2023 uh when they kind of opened the I don’t know information yes some estimates suggest a million cases per day of COVID Holy [bleep] cases not necessarily cases but hundreds of thousands of deaths.
Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Well, that sounds more in line with the rest of the world with humanity. By 2023, much of the world had turned the page and in May of 2023, the WHO declared that CO 19 was no longer a public health emergency of international concern. And it essentially in May of 2023, that’s when it ended officially. That’s when COVID kind of ended as a thing. You know what I mean? As of August 2025, reports say 770 million cases of COVID around the world and 7 million people died Jesus from CO. Okay. We don’t know. It’s so hard to know uh what that is. Um but we are still talking and and I this is not I’m not saying this as an [bleep] I’m not saying it as anything.
But in the grand scheme, remember we had talked about like was it worth it? Yeah. And we’re talking sub 1%. You know, as opposed to the these other private say seven million out of seven billion. Well, there’s there’s 8 billion people on the plan. Yeah. Okay. So, I’m saying sub 1%. Yeah. Like we’re talking sub 1% death rate whereas like some of these other pandemics, it’s like 30% of the the Earth is dead. Yeah. So, I’m not making light of it. I’m not I’m not saying this I’m like not trying to be like insensitive, but I’m saying was it was it worth like the the damage caused by the reaction?
Was it worth it? But granted, there’s the flip side of the coin. I have to take the other side is like did they contain it? Is it because of the action that it was only sub 1%. And it’s a great leadin to because now we’re going to go over all of the things that were done that were done the actions in order to a either combat it or if there were nefarious things slow the spread was the [bleep] thing they kept saying. Yeah. No, the curve. What’s the curve? Slow the curve or flatten the curve. Flatten the curve. Like what’s the [bleep] little catchphrase or using?
I was going to say also like it did end quote unquote in diff at different times in different areas. Like I’ll say around Florida, we were [bleep] over it by the end by the end of 2020. At the bar like [bleep] off. Do what I got to do. It’s true. They’re like, “Oh, I don’t have to worry while I’m eating.” Just eating everywhere. Constantly eating. Like other states are driving with a mask by themselves in the car. I still see homies driving with the mask. I swear I saw a dude driving with a mask and smoking. I couldn’t believe it. He was alone in the car.
for the mask where they cut cut the thing and they’re like at a restaurant eating through the mask. Yeah. So, uh, one last thing on on there is something that came out about something called long co. Oh, yeah. Um, and some say that people are still dealing with that today. Uh, and this is, you know, some people report having lost their sense of smell. Mhm. You know, different things that are just a long Yeah. a long or some people like something that really affected their lungs cuz it it really attacked the respiratory system. Yeah. And yeah, they ended up with kind of like basically what COPD is.
Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. So, there you go. So, we’re going to kind of talk about there’s some funny things because uh we went through all of this. Everybody listening went through all of this. Unless you’re 6 years old, four years old. I don’t [bleep] remember [bleep] But in which case they didn’t listen to the disclaimer at the beginning. What’s wild too is I have never seen and and and maybe this leans towards conspiratorial, but I have never seen a concerted effort to try to get something done in my lifetime. Meaning the the absolute push to get vaccinated I have never seen on this scale. Well, it’s also it’s it’s not even just that.
It was the the ultimate black ball like pressure like force. The force behind you do it or you’re a [bleep] piece of [bleep] Like you’re exiled from society. You were no long you’re you’re you’re trying to kill everyone. Like that was that was just that’s when to me I was like maybe something’s not right here. Yeah. Yeah. And and I know we’re a comedy podcast first, but I I gotta say I there was a point I got really mad Oh, yeah. about all of this. I think it I think it was really [bleep] up. Oh, yeah. That people were pressurized to inject something into your body.
Yeah. A foreign substance not tested properly. And and and it got to the point where people were honest and saying, “No, you have to do this. No, you have to.” It wasn’t even like a side like Yeah, you don’t have to do anything but you treating you. It was a direct Oh, it was very much push to do it and and I found it to be extremely [bleep] up. Um and I you know, like I said, I know comedy podcast that’s what makes people like not trust them something, you know, like it’s like it’s too much pressure, too much [bleep] Yeah. pressure like Well, think of how many how many how many relationships were ruined over over the [bleep] families and families like divi the divide that it created.
I mean I think this was the the like one of the the biggest divides ever created and enforced by the US government and by all governments. Absolutely. And uh yet yet you’re still pushing you know oh body autonomy and like you can do whatever you want except for this. Now, here was the main argument and tell me if I’m wrong, but this was the main argument in my view was that like for example, let’s say us three, just us three as like friends. So, say I got vaccinated. Mhm. Then the line was pushed by media andor our government officials saying that Jorge is now risking my life because he refuses to do the vaccine.
But isn’t the vaccine like but but it’s funny. It’s like but I but if you got vaccinated why wouldn’t he affect you? Right. It makes sense. But that was the narrative. Yeah. That was the narrative. And but it became it pitted Jorge and I. Let’s say Shawn got it and let’s say Shawn and Eric got vaccinated and Jorge was the only one. Mhm. So it pitted us two against him. Yeah. Cuz he’s trying to kill us. He Yes. and he is the one irresponsible who is irresponsible for for putting us at risk and it became this [bleep] up thing and I’m so [bleep] mad about it because I literally had this run on me of just because I want to be myself and not just do what I am a very like yes I drink beer I smoke some cigarettes but I don’t I don’t do a lot of stuff I don’t even like I don’t even really take Advil like I’m a very like pretty basic person you take whiskey.
Yeah. But point being though is that then I’m being forced to take this foreign substance that I know nothing about. Not proven. No long-term testing. I still don’t know anything about it. No one does. Yes. And I’m ridiculed and [bleep] made to look like a piece of [bleep] loser. And I am so mad about this. But it’s even worse when you you find out that when we spoke about this I think in episode one of this um the media was all coordinated saying the same [bleep] the exact same script. So then you know it’s like this agenda that’s being pushed now the question is who’s pushing it and it’s like and the thing is like oh it’s 95% effective.
So if it’s 95% effective if you take it you shouldn’t have to worry about anybody else because it’s 95% effective. Why why would someone else not taking affect you at all? But then obviously those numbers were a lie and then it became like 80%. And then it became like who hurt you like 50%. Who hurt you? No. And and just to clarify, I’m not antivaccine. No, I’ve had I’m vaccinated for a lot of things. I know. When I was a kid, I got but I’m not. So, I’m saying I’m not antivaccine. But I’m telling you, when I was pushed like I wasn’t pushed into a room, but I felt backed into a corner about doing this and I was like, you know, this is [bleep] up.
This is against I I I went back to this is against my rights. It is against your rights. This is against my rights. You can’t force like it’s like saying like imagine if the government was like you have to take crack. Yeah. That’s the only way to save yourself. You’re like, but I really don’t want to do that. like you’re trying to threaten my family. I know. Take this crack. Now, do you think in hindsight, cuz we’re now we’re now 5 years out. Do you think in hindsight the people who were pushing those feel bad about that? [bleep] No. Yeah. They’re looking at their [bleep] They’re looking at their bank accounts.
They’re like, “Sweet. Worked out good.” I know that I know the other argument or the other side of it is that, well, we squashed the virus, right? But so it worked. No, but see, so we’ll never be able to argue that with somebody who is super against it. I mean, like, see the thing is like we don’t we don’t know. There’s no way to know for a fact if that is what the cause was. Like if that is what actually stopped it or if it was just like, you know, bodies eventually adapt like we’ve done for thousands of years. You adapt to [bleep] and then you [bleep] move on.
And that’s just kind of the way it’s always gone. Yeah. Like and though [bleep] they they weren’t vaccinating [bleep] back in Greece and like they were like you know like they didn’t have [bleep] Yeah, but they lost 30%. I know. No, but then but see but then the body like you know the the old adage like what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. I mean that is an it’s an adage because it’s it’s actually fact. It’s like you your the immune system and and evolution it’s it’s it’s literally classic evolution. It’s like you become a strong like your immune system becomes more and as you have kids it’s like that [bleep] is programmed in like oh we like the [bleep] cells know this is bad [bleep] Like it’s the fact it’s actual science.
Yeah. And again I just want to say before we get a bunch of bad reviews on Eric raging out. I again I’m vaccinated for a lot of things. Uh I think all of us I think anyone who’s over 30 is vaccinated for health and and I think that I think vaccine vaccines have saved us to an extent. There are ramifications of it. But over over hundreds of years our medicine is better and those vaccines were tested for years. Yes. There you go. Tested for years. That’s the argument that I wanted to say is that all I’m saying is it should be properly done properly. Not long-term effects.
Yes. Not in a desperate attempt. Whatever. Okay. But it was desperate times. It was desperate times. I know. And I give it to them. I’ll give you that I’ll give you that little I’ll give them that little bit. Yeah. Desperate times. I was not a leader. I was not a person in charge of deciding what to do with this. So, I understand that part. Uh anyways, so uh I put together a list of the most outrageous things that government officials did in order to talk us into bamboozley. Yes. Yes. And the first one was in New Jersey. Uh and it’s a highly publicized moment. Leaders in New Jersey and New York offered free hamburgers and French fries with proof of vaccination.
And the homie was like literally ate a hamburger in front live. Yes. I think we did do a post on it a while ago. Oh, I think we did. We might have to repost that. Oh, [bleep] [bleep] it. But Governor Phil Murphy and Mayor Bill Delasio, they were filmed eating burgers on camera to promote the campaign. You’re saying I could get this delicious fries? A massage chair might seem a bit extravagant, especially these days. Eight different settings, adjustable intensity, plus it’s heated and it just feels so good. Yes, a massage chair might seem a bit extravagant, but when it can come with a car, suddenly it seems quite practical.
The allne 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan packed with premium features like available massaging front seats. It only feels extravagant.

Let me let me check with Bill Needart. Is it too early in the day to eat a burger? Not this could be breakfast. Okay. I want you to look at this and think about again. Some people love hamburgers, some don’t. Really want to respect all ways of life. But if this is appealing to you, just think about I want to respect all you [bleep] dick hole. I mean, this is literally it’s like a straight out idiocracy. Yes, it’s so outrageous. Oh, we’re all so stupid. We got a can’t be true. I was like, yeah, we have like 350 million people who were just like literally homeless and we’re like, oh my god, free prize.
I mean, the next program was out of Washington State and it was called Joints for Jabs. Oh my. Wow. This program let licensed cannabis uh this program let licensed cannabis dispensaries hand out a free joint to newly vaccinated residents. I want to know what what the what what how much cash were they given to do this? How much [bleep] government cash were they given to handle free joint? We’re going to get into the cash. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Uh in the Philippines in in raffles in the suburbs, vaccinated residents could win a live cow. Oh yeah. Feed your [bleep] family for like a month. Directly appealing to the local livelihood and farming culture because they wanted the cow.
You want I’ll do whatever it takes. [bleep] the cow’s worth. [bleep] the joint. Give me a cow. I can buy a house with this [bleep] cow. Like four grand for a cow, isn’t it? That’s the Philippines. In Hong Kong, vaccinated residents were entered to win a luxury condo and it was worth over a million dollars. So you were if you got vacuum up in the ante. Mhm. Alaska home state. What’s up babies? Alaska offered a free vaccines at the airports. At the airport to both residents and incoming tourists, merging tourism marketing with public health. You want to see these [bleep] glaciers, [bleep] Come on down.
In Ohio, there was something called my home state. [bleep] There was something called Vax a Million and it gave five lucky winners a million dollars each if they showed pro. I want to know who got if they actually got paid on this. Yeah. I want to know Maine. I guess this is a hot item. They gave away free hunting licenses if you got vaccinated. They’re like, “Yo, let’s go, boys.” West Virginia, they gave out $100 savings bond if you got vaccinated. That’s not even worth it. A hundred bucks. Dude, that’s way better than a hamburger, though. You know what? That’s actually a good point. That’s way better than a hamburger.
In Moscow, Russia, vaccinated residents were entered into lotteryies for cars and cash. They’re like, “We won’t kill you if you if you think that.” Bulgaria, vaccinated youth could win one of 102 new smartphones that And they were aimed at teenagers getting on on board. 102? What? What’s the 102? It’s such a random number. Uh, in another one in Bulgaria, seniors over 65 who got vaccinated received a $45 bonus in their next pension payment. I mean, it’s just so weird. Then these these are not as funny. U, but Austria and Germany, they imposed lockdowns only for people who didn’t get it. What? So if you didn’t get the vaccine, you were locked down.
Almost like the vaccine passport. Yes. Mhm. where that’s like you can’t you can’t [bleep] strangely emanating from Germany. Show us the papas. No offense, Germany. Yeah, it’s okay. German. Hey, I’m 50% German, which is which is bizarre, but in Greece, you were fined $100 per month. No [bleep] way. You didn’t get vaccinated. Can they legally Is that I’m waiting for Italy cuz Italy was one of the top [bleep] You’re subject to firing squad if you don’t get the vaccine. Uh, in Singapore, they paid your hospital bill if you were vaccinated, but if you didn’t, you had to pay your own hospital bill. That’s so [bleep] [bleep] Uh, in the What if it was for something that was like not to do with CO?
Nope. Sorry. They would still pay though, like you had a baby. They’re like, “We’re doing it.” She’s vaccinated. Uh, the Ukraine put unvaccinated teachers and public officials on unpaid leave. Oh, that’s so [bleep] up. Oh, yeah. In early 2021, it was revealed that government officials, political allies, and celebrities received early access to vaccines called the VIP program in Argentina. This was a scandal because you had to either be rich or famous. Famous. That’s right. And on that note, didn’t we also have celebrities here getting on TV and like pushing Oh, they were doing live vaccines. like literally live vaccines like the jab using the influencers.
Oh man, I know. It’s so It’s so weird. Like crazy, right? You can just watch the tactics and it’s it’s so obvious. It’s so obvious. It became more and more obvious that it pushed a lot of people more and more, you know, away. It’s so it’s just it’s so like how dumb do you think we are? Like apparently it was testing how dumb we are, you know, and we’re dumb. Okay, there’s the uh those are the the wild stories of so of what they were doing. And so now, like I said at the beginning, Jorge’s wife is a nurse. She also uh we asked her to talk to a couple people like in her, you know, the nurse world.
Yeah. And so she put together something and I want this kind of like her experience, right? Yeah. It’s her experience with COVID. So she’s frontline essential worker. She went through it. Yeah. Like through the [bleep] Yeah. we went through. No, I mean there that is a valid, you know, I’m not going to take that away from him. No, for sure. She uh you’ll see here. So, let me let me read her uh experience here. So, uh she says, “I had the very first COVID 19 positive patient in her hospital. It was scary. No one really knew what was happening. We only had the stories you’d hear on the news, which we know are like the scariest literally fear factor.” Yeah, at the beginning we had full isolation gear, N95 mask, gowns, gloves, face shields, shoe covers, and hair covers like straight out of the uh what’s that movie you always talk about?
Oh, Outbreak. Outbreak. That’s what she looked like. But that eventually turned into reusing N95 masks. That was really happening. I bought my own boxes when I saw this coming. I even had to beg a friend who was a medical supplier for surgical masks because they were making us reuse those. One of the interesting things about CO is that we’d be hearing these stories out of New York and other states where people were dying at a rapid rate. I’m not going to say that didn’t happen because I find it very hard to believe nurses were lying about that. I’m sure there were a lot of deaths.
But the strange thing was that here in Florida, while we did have some people die, it wasn’t the same. It wasn’t like a a [bleep] devastating up. I mean, if you I don’t know if you guys remember like there was definitely strangely enough like um New York was a high concentration of deaths. Yeah. Granted, New York does have an exorbitant amount more people and everything is like next to each other but even when you saw like uh back then was Trump on the news and stuff like that and talking about ventilators and all that. It was always related to CO and the news that came out it was always footage of uh not what am I saying?
The New York um hospitals. Yeah. everything. And you see like there’s like they got [bleep] triage tents and [bleep] It’s like over over capacity. We’re [bleep] Yeah. We had many patients with CO. Some were very sick, some were not. And what I always found very interesting was that no one really looked into why some people got sick or died, while others hardly had symptoms. That probably would have required a huge study, but there has to be a reason for that difference. Yeah. Why would you do a huge study on this global pandemic? I mean, why why would you waste the time doing that? Early on, I noticed that we tested everyone, every single patient, symptomatic or not.
I guess it made sense at the time since there was still so much fear about spreading it. But when I started to hear the rumors that hospitals were getting reimbursed more money for patients that were COVID positive, I and a lot of others started to feel suspicious about the true intentions behind the whole ordeal. My particular hospital never mandated COVID vaccine, but then the government did. Basically saying that hospitals would be reimbursed less if they didn’t have a certain staff vaccination rate. It’s like Medicaid. I was prepared to quit my job at that point because I felt wrong to be forced. I’d say over 40% of the staff felt the same way.
Wow. They would have walked out. That’s a big percentage. Yeah. The really crazy thing is what happened after co nursing students and medical students weren’t allowed to do clinicals during the height of it. So it became very difficult for them to finish school. Eventually they even changed the N clicks which is like the nursing boards. Yeah. Which is known as one of the hardest exams to pass. They lowered the standard so we could push more nurses into the field because at that point Yeah. There’s there is such a shortage like do you want to come into this role? You’re going to have to work. We’re not going to pay you extra.
And and at the very beginning it’s like who wants to get involved in like a pandemic. Like you don’t know how long it’s going to [bleep] You know what’s crazy is we we saw the lowering of standards with the Boeing episodes. Oh yeah. We know what happened there. Oh yeah. That worked out great. That worked out great. Yeah. Super good. Yeah. If you do a quick search today, you’ll see that it’s kind of scary out there because some of the new nurses that are entering the practice are definitely not as ready as they should be. No. In Florida, in the beginning, there were no financial incentives for nurses to work extra beyond normal overtime.
But about a year or two in, damn. So that was like way after 2022ish after many people left the hospitals uh the hospitals finally finally started offering bonuses. You could get anywhere from $500 to an extra $750 for picking up an extra shift. Oh yeah, I remember that. We were like working more get on the shift. Get the shift. That was nice. Which we’re going to get into the money thing after is that’s all been taken away now. I suspect that happened because hospitals were getting extra money from the government, but I can’t prove that. I did talk to her and I’m like, “Yeah, we did verify that there was the car’s act was paying extra act was paying.” I think it’s worth mentioning that a lot of us, myself included, wanted to quit at different points.
It was exhausting. But as cheesy as it sounds, when you’re surrounded by that many sick people, even if it wasn’t all co, it felt like a duty to stay. things were already bad enough and walking away just didn’t feel right. So, it’s like Yeah. It’s like you can’t like you know it sucks and you know you’re getting [bleep] but like you know it’s like I I I don’t know if if you know as a nurse you you probably don’t have to take the hypocratic oath but it’s like the same thing. It’s like your job similar or the same. I don’t know. Your job is to take care of people and like to help people.
And I can imagine if you go into that field you have like an innate want to help people. And I did mention this in one of the episodes, but like you get threatened with losing your license, too. So, let’s say you’re like, “Oh, [bleep] it. I’m just going to quit for for now and then I’ll get a job later.” No, cuz you’re going to be considered leaving abandoning your your patient and then you lose your license. Oh, [bleep] Oh my god. It’s like you’re trapped. You’re damned if you do, damn if you don’t. Exactly. Wow. All right. Well, yeah. Big shout out. Thank you so much for for writing that.
Uh, seriously, it’s a perspective that we don’t have. we weren’t in that field. Yeah, that’s right. And we do have a couple essential workers as listeners. Um, we love to hear you guys what your side of the story was. Yeah, absolutely. And it’s a perfect transition cuz now let’s talk about money. Mhm. Yeah. The [bleep] root of all evil. Yeah. The money story starts in March of 2020. The demand collapsed. The demand for everything collapsed. Travel. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Everything shut down. dining. Yeah. You imagine being in like the hotel industry. You’re like [bleep] dead. Uh Bitcoin crashed, stock market crashed, everything. Um credit market seized up.
Policy makers raced to build a financial bridge across an unknown abyss of how long is this going to be? Yeah. How long are we going to shut down? And there’s also like on the on the flip side of then you have bailouts in order like how do you keep these industries afloat? Mh. Because if they die and then and then it’s like it’s just everything dies. So the Federal Reserve, our favorite people. Oh my god, I love them. [bleep] [bleep] You love him this week. Well, ETH isn’t on ETH isn’t on [bleep] the Federal Reserve board, baby. Uh they slash rates to near zero and started buying assets at historic speed.
Now, here is very conspira conspiratorial, which is talk to me. It was cr It crashed. The market The market crashed. Everything was on discount, so to speak. Oh, yeah. Right. Like Oh, yeah. Dirt cheap. Dirt cheap. Things were just abysmal. I mean, hindsight, they’re dirt cheap. Yes. No. Correct. Because you didn’t know how long like for example, you were like, how long was it going to be till you went on a flight? Yeah. Right. Who knows? No. Yeah. Could be like a year. Who knows? So, uh, the Federal Reserve started buying assets at historic speed, uh, expanding its balance sheet to $8.9 trillion by April 2022.
And we’re still paying the debt off. Oh, yeah. So, that means the Federal Reserve bought double. They basically doubled down their entire asset sheet. Oh, good for them. So, how how does that work, just so we clarify? So, basically, they buy into bonds. They buy uh they buy stock straight up to help the economy and the US dollar and because they need somebody to buy. Nobody’s buying. Yeah. So they’re buying bonds. They’re buying they’re buying US Treasury bonds. Yeah. Which like So it’s like a loan like a debt. No. No. Yeah. It’s a debt. So it’s a weird thing. It’s like so treasury bonds are are what’s put out by the US government and they’re considered the they’re in essence like if you if you’re in the financial industry and you buy a Treasury bond, it’s like the safest.
It’s the safest because everything is rated on a term like when you when you’re trying to let’s say you’re you’re rich and you’re like, “Okay, cool. I want to invest whatever.” If in terms of like a scale of let’s say A to to Z. Yeah. what your equivalent of getting your money back is like on on a scale like a treasury bond is is like zero. It’s it’s above a it’s it’s it’s infinitely guaranteed because it’s guaranteed by the US government. It’s about as low risk as it’s the low there is so you won’t get much. It’s literally actually considered no risk. It’s it’s literally considered no risk because it’s like we’re if we fail we’re all [bleep] anyway.
So, you know, so it’s no risk, bro. But but it’s but see it’s a weird thing because the the institution that literally prints our money is the one that’s buying it, right? So like you have to think that there’s there’s like if you don’t think that there’s a problem there, you need to start you need to wake the [bleep] up. Like so so the institution that the private organization that literally governs and prints our money, governs our interest rates, governs everything which is not a federal institution. It is even though it’s called federal. It is not just it’s like FedEx. Yes. It is not governed by it’s not there’s there’s no oversight, no control.
Yeah. They’re the ones who are like, “Oh yeah, let’s double down.” Like of course we’re going to double down. Of course, we print your money. We [bleep] print your money. We should start a We should start a meme coin called the Federal Reserve. Yeah, we should just [bleep] print. Print me and see how that goes. Federal Reserve coin. [bleep] I love it. Edit that out. We don’t need anyone else taking our We’re going to buy bonds early. Federal Reserve coin is now at $10 million per coin. It’s crazy that they can even call it that. Let’s be honest. Well, it’s, you know, we’re going to we should do an episode on the whole Federal Reserve thing.
1971. We need to do an episode on that. And the gold standard. Oh my god, dude. What a [bleep] sham. Anyways, so the European Central Bank, the equivalent of, you know, launched a special bond buying program and it was called the pandemic emergency purchase program. And it kept increasing its size until the envelope reached 1.85. 85 trillion. The Bank of England lifted its government bond purchases to just shy of a trillion pounds. While the Bank of Japan rolled out funding support and special facilities, it reached tens of trillions of yen. In short, wow, central banks, Federal Reserve turned into buyers of the last resort to keep borrowing costs down and credit flowing and to make it appear as though somebody’s buying.
Yep. Because without buyers, what do you got? You got sellers, right? Exactly. Well, it’s also like, you know, most of our most of the money institutions are it’s all speculative market. So you know you take any sort of stock you know say you have company company Apple take Apple now if if if only if people are only selling Apple only that stock is going to plummet because the speculation is that something’s wrong there’s no buyers everyone’s selling there’s a problem. Yeah. So therefore if there’s no buyers it’s [bleep] So everyone like there’s only sellers. Everyone’s going to sell it. That’s that’s how they created the central bank.
They [bleep] they created they created this [bleep] sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell sell only market to create a market like there’s got to be a buyer yeah well yeah but if you make a phantom buyer yeah there that’s see the buyer the buyer is the one who’s printing the money right yeah so that’s the problem there is a buyer there’s a buyer it’s the person who’s creating the person who owns the market is [bleep] buying it like yeah I’ll take it all so then what all this money flows into the economy into the markets. No, it goes into the market from bond market to stock market to So, it goes to the government.
No, no, it goes to private holders. Well, no, but if if you’re buying if you’re buying treasury bonds, the the money does go to the government. Okay, got like cuz the government’s selling the bonds, but it’s it’s a perfect it’s a perfect scenario for for the for the Fed because they’re like, “Cool, like we need the US government because we’re just [bleep] just [bleep] eating good off that interest. Are you kidding me?” like [bleep] it. Well, they owe us trillions. We need them to survive. Yeah, exactly. So, we’re like, cool, we’ll we’ll buy it. So, we’re going to give you we’re listen we’re creating a fictitious am like income.
Yeah. That they’re going to pay back to us anyways. And so, we’re we’re actually making money. We’re literally making money. Like, we’re we’re spending money to make money. It’s kind of like how do we keep the boat alive? Yeah. Exactly. Or how do we how do we keep it alive? Not considering what’s going to happen in 20 years. Yeah. This is like the This is like the guy. He’s like, “Let me put a little more gas in the boat to get us wherever, but then you’re going to owe me when we get there.” But there’s a leak. It’s like the No, it’s the Flex Seal guy.
It’s like the Flex Seal guy. Just slap a little [bleep] Flex Seal on that [bleep] Like, it’s going to fail eventually, but little Flex Seal. In In March of 2020, the United States passed the CARES Act, $2.2 trillion package. So that’s what I was saying like the money flows to the government and then the government’s like, “Okay, what are we going to do with this money? They’re not going to pay the debt back. They’re getting it. They’re getting it so they can they can pump in this case.” But then the money goes back to the government and the government uses our money to pay the debt.
And they’re not even paying the debt. They’re paying like minimum payment with tax. Like the government’s like minimum payment and it’s like you’re going to be paid off in 2,000 years. Exactly. Government takes our money, minimum payments that [bleep] It just keeps growing forever. If you wanted to know what it was like, just look at your credit card bill. Exactly. And that’s the minimum. That’s the US government. The US government ision. The US government is me on crack. Literally, I am the US government. Minimums only. So, in March 2020, a $900 billion relief package uh in December 2020. Yeah. Like these these are just I’m going to go rattle through them, right?
Uh then there was a $1.9 trillion rescue plan in March of 2021. This is the 14 hundos and it was called the American Rescue Plan. Yeah. Here’s 14 hundo each. Yes. It’s going to keep you afloat for one month globally. And I don’t know if you’ve heard of this entity, but it’s called the IMF. The International Monetary Fund. Isn’t that the impossible mission force? Isn’t it mission? Wait, wait, what? No. If you don’t know, there is a global entity called the International Monetary Fund. Yeah. They tallied $16 trillion into support of the pandemic phase. This is money for wage, business loans, health systems, direct checks that showed up as household excess savings.
The question though was did it work as a bridge? Kind of. I would say basically it slowed the free fall. Well, I’ll tell you what, my viewpoint on it because it was nice. It was good. Look at that little stim. Damn. I actually didn’t get personally the styi. I think I don’t remember if it was income based or not, but I didn’t. So, whatever. But then I did get the business one. I ei. And then there was another one. The pip. Wasn’t there a PPP? PPI is Oh, we’re going to go over We’re going to go over this. We’re going to go over the PPP, too.
Yeah. Yeah. We got a lot in there. Um, but to give you an idea, the the money that they were pumping in essentially slowed the freef fall, meaning like it uh it’s a [bleep] bandaid. To give you an idea, in 2020, the the global GDP, the global gross domestic product Mhm. was minus three and a half%. And this is one of the first times in Wow. in negative. It was negative. No. So like you’re actually you’re actually losing. Yeah. You’re you’re negative on the GDP. That’s right. Inflation took off. Oh, yeah. In the United States, the consumer price index peaked at 9% in June just of 2020.
Uh June 2022. So that was the peak. So So it takes just imagine this is a really big boat and it just takes a really long time to turn the boat. They’re like, “Come on, come on, baby.” Yeah. It’s just a real slow thing. So all of this printing, all this stuff that we had talked about, uh it peaked in June of 2022 and it saw the month growth or inflation of like 9% 10% etc. And and to rein it in the central banks pivoted from money printing Mhm. to increasing interest rates. Oh yeah. Yeah. That’s what they’re like that was their strategy. They’re like no more no more cash.
So basically I remember this they call it quantitative easing. So when they’re pumping money into the economy and then but all this extra money, everybody’s willing to pay more. That’s right. For [bleep] That’s right. So then when it gets too out of control, the inflation’s too high, everything, you know, cost of everything’s out of control. Then they’re like, “Wait a minute. Let’s raise the interest rate so we can’t loan as the banks can’t loan as much. You reduce spending.” And then Exactly. But at that time you had a I don’t want to I don’t I don’t like to like put everybody in a category but I kind of have to which is there were certain things there were certain groups of people there were frontline essential workers right these are people who still had their job your wife still had her job she was working really hard grinding then there are people who uh didn’t lose their job but the the business was lowered right and then there were people who just got laid off Yes.
Do you know what I mean? So people were getting styi checks, but to the people who didn’t lose their job, they were getting styi checks. Oh, 100%. Every everyone’s getting ste. So those are the people who started spending more cuz it’s like extra income. Yeah. Yeah. You’re like, “Oh, I got four grand.” Oh, yeah. On the extra. I mean, you know, I’m sitting at my home. I’m going to buy I’m going to buy the TV, maybe like renovate the patio. I’m going to do a couple things now on the other side of the coin and I was in that coin. I was laid off. Yeah.
So that story I remember I remember I remember getting laid off. It was September of 2020. Yeah. We already talked about the uh the the white club days and and the job market was a nightmare and you were I was I was recruiting in the job market and no one would hire. Everyone was afraid to interview. Like you it just nothing was happening like no one was doing [bleep] Yeah. So, it was just this weird time of where some people the stim checks benefited, but some people it just was printing money and giving it out. No, but see, but the stem is like it wasn’t like the stimulus checks it was literally you’re good for I give you like a month of leeway.
Yeah. And that was it. And then it was still you’re still [bleep] It’s like the people 750 bucks. What the hell are they going to do with that? They do nothing. I just lost everything. They’re like cool. I can like get groceries tonight and like what the [bleep] am I going to do with this? So there were certain industries that actually boomed. Mhm. Home goods boomed because everybody’s sitting at home for a year. Nothing else to do. Yeah. And so you zoom boommed crushing it all these. So it was this vaporizing. So let’s just take the example of toilet paper. Oh my god. That what what the [bleep] was that?
A couple couple things happened with toilet paper. I was so afraid of like so our our supply chain everybody was at home. You’re [bleep] way more all the time. [bleep] bricks. But then China closed down. Yeah. 80 something% of toilet paper comes from China. That’s bizarre. There’s so many. So then manufacturing shut down. So then there was a shortage. Right. Classic economics. So then everybody scrambling to Costco. I don’t know if you remember or Target or whatever. Insane. Insanity. People were getting one roll. People were buying how much I [bleep] But people were buying like like 700 rolls a year or something. It’s like so many rolls.
The preppers had like two years worth of rolls. Yes. I mean it’s like dude just like who cares at that point. Like so. But what I bring this up is it’s a small example. So everybody was buying, right? And so we were buying more than we needed actually. And so then China started manufacturing excessively to go, “Oh, this is now the new norm.” So then they overmanufactured. Now they have all this product. They’re like, “Fuck.” Yes. This is stupid. I need to do [bleep] more. Yes. God damn it. Release the laxatives. Load the tankers. So this is now a small example of manufacturing and where we stand as of like last year where companies, major companies had excess inventory.
Wow. Just so much so much inventory that we don’t even know what to do with. You know what I mean? Anyways, and so these are just examples of these weird economies within the economies of same thing happened with the mask, the uh the the hand sanitizers, the I don’t know what else, but like you know that super hyper produced it and then it was like now the market died for it and you’re like trapped with like millions and billions of dollars worth of product and you’re like no one wants it. Yes. How do we move this? That’s right. While on TJ Maxx it on the other side on the other side gas was a major issue because nobody’s going to work and nobody’s traveling.
So there was this complet down horribly down because nobody’s going to work, nobody’s traveling. Like planes use the most [bleep] So it’s just this weird economists are confused and it’s like a chaos and nobody knows what’s real and what’s not real. And so I mean it’s pretty clear that there’s only like one real well a couple real real winners. Yeah. The Fed and uh the pharmaceuticals. Yeah. Y but by 20 by the end of 2020 75% of international travel it was crashed by 75%. Yeah. Oh that makes total sense. You know what I mean? Um but we were just pushing things into it. So by 2023 2024 the policy stance flipped from flooring the accelerator to tapping on the brakes.
And this is what you were talking about quantitative easing. Uh the Federal Reserve and European banks started to increase the interest rates uh slowing down loan loans purchasing homes you know that sort of thing. Do you remember the home Oh yeah. I bought mine during the pandemic. It was great. We bought our house in 2019. Mhm. Yeah. So you missed it for like for like No, like we got our house for like dirt dirt cheap. It was like precoid inflation too. It was the best. I mean we got this house for nothing. I got lucky cuz I locked in my interest rate the day that it went up.
So I locked it in at 3%. Yeah, we we bought a house 3%. It’s like you buy a house now it’s like 6 7% and then from there it just like started skyrocketing. And have you ever done the math on let’s say you buy a $500,000 house? Yeah. 3% probably like a $2,500 $3,000 mortgage, but at six or seven percent, it’s like 4K. Five. Yeah. Four, five. Yeah. Four 5K. And like that makes it so you can’t afford it. Well, you’re also talking about like over the over the lifetime of the the term loan, it’s like you’re talking like hundreds of thousands of dollars. Yeah.
Like and then in the the world it became a strange like I don’t want to say islands but like different locations in the US and I’m just talking US that completely disagreed with the policies of each state. Meaning Florida became a we’re not really subscribing to the lock down as much. Yeah. Texas same. Right. But the other states like California and New York went hard on it. Oh so hard. Right. Then you saw an exodus. Oh yeah. Of people from those states. So many people went to Florida and Texas. Yeah. And so during the peak of what I would call the peak of real estate here, for example, we went to an open house.
There was a line. Yeah. Like two blocks down of people waiting to go into an open house. No, but like also what was happening here is people would be buying houses cash without even seeing it. Sight unseen. buying a house over asking for cash. Yeah. And it’s like not like literally crazy. I saw Godzilla looks cool. I’m buying it. At that time, you also have corporations that started getting into investing in residential houses. Oh my god. Because of all this money rock um uh what’s it? Birkshshire Hathaway. Right. So, like you said, you’re competing with people that are willing to just pay or companies that are willing to just pay cash.
And they had cash like sitting there. I was competing with these [bleep] Like I remember this. I had to way overpay for my house. It was crazy. Yeah. I still love your house though. Yes, it was a great house. Yeah, we still have a [bleep] barbecue. Godamn. I know. So nowadays when you’re talking to people, there is a huge line between precoid and postco, right? Like you go like we just said your house, you bought your house precoid. Oh, so everybody knows so happy that you got a good deal because inflation is up. [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] was crushing. That was like G. The game was legit.
It was the best. I was talking to somebody the other day uh and cuz my my truck is about to be paid off. And they were like, “When did you get that?” And I was like, “Prep.” So it’s like it’s it’s in our vernacular now. It’s the new way to like define like time. So like BCA BCE and it’s just PC. Yeah. Exactly. Before BC. Yeah. Pre-COVID. But a lot of people really went through the ringer and businesses, you know, went under. Uh well, how many small businesses died? Yeah. I mean, the small business the small business market like literally like vanished. Yeah. Especially the ones that were like relied on foot traffic.
Yeah. You know, absolutely. And so that leads into a couple of programs that the government did. The SBA Yep. Uh and that’s the Small Business Association. They came out with two main programs. One was the economic injury disaster loan which is EIDL and that was a loan. Yeah. Then there was the Paycheck Protection Program. Yeah. Which is the PPE. Okay. And PPP, sorry. And the PPP was one of the most fraudulent programs that have existed. So many people [bleep] that system so hard. People started getting indicted for that [bleep] Oh no. Yeah. Yeah. They started Yeah. They started arrest people like And so what I wanted to do some of the major players cuz I was curious if our government officials benefited.
Of course they did. So I was just let’s be honest. I was just wondering 100% chance. But uh uh inspectors of the SBA, they estimate that $136 billion Wow. was fraud. Oh, dude. Well, 136 billion. No, cuz here’s the thing is like the SBA wasn’t really like doing due diligence. It was like, “Oh, I have I have an like I personally have an escort.” Like I I personally do it like even even besides that the podcast is is an escort. So it’s like we I like I’m involved in multiple escorts. If this was co times, me, Eric, and Jorge could easily have been like, “Oh, hey, applied.
Give me 500.” We could have got we could have got like probably probably like 100 200k. Yeah. That’s the studio right there. And then Yeah. Studio. And then and then we just like [bleep] and then we vanish and they’re just like, “Oh, okay.” They’re like, “Oh, well, cuz they they said it did have to pay get paid back or it didn’t PPP if you proved tell you a story. I’m going to tell you a story, right? Uh I had a small LLC that uh was like an ecom business and we got a PPP. Mhm. And it was very small like like 15 grand or something like that, right?
Uh we then applied and we got disapproved for forgiveness. Ah yeah because you could apply for forgiveness. Yeah. Yeah. So they so they turned it into a loan. Yeah. So they turned we paid it off. No but but one of the things like I remember the company I used to work at we we had like both these loans and it was like you know substantial amount of money but they were in essence like 0% for like 10 years. Yeah. That’s what it was. That’s true. Yeah. Yeah. And obviously the best loans on the planet. Yeah. They paid it back but it’s literally like 0% for like 10 years.
Yeah. Yeah. It’s the best loan ever. Mhm. I honestly I wish I could did my house. I wish I could right now. I know. It’s like uh maybe we should just check that out and see if we can still do it. So, this whole evolution of the SBA, EIDL, PPP, uh turned into what is considered the largest fraud event in US financial history by dollar. Oh, yeah. Dollar amount. Yeah. Um, and I just took it upon myself to look up our leaders to see, you know, what is crazy though on a side note is the amount of people that got PPPs is crazy. Um, everybody I mean even Pearl Jam got a million dollars.
No [bleep] way. Are you saying because they’re a entity and they have like a team and you know that whole they can do concerts. What was what was the purpose of this? The purpose is that you know, okay, so let’s just take Pearl Jam as the example, right? They had a tour set up. Yep. And you have and they can’t do it anymore. You have staff and you have to pay and so the PPP payroll protection. So it’s like, okay, I have employees that I need to pay. Yep. So they’re not [bleep] Yeah. You were incentivized not to lay off people. That’s right. That’s what it was.
It was protect. Yeah. cuz I got this from like so we thankfully didn’t have to lay off I think maybe one person I’m not sure but like basically nobody and except for that one person except for that one basically nobody pretty much nobody they’re probably listening probably 1% but that was good because it definitely helped to not have to do that no see like in theory it’s good in theory it’s good but obviously people are you Not people, you know, some people are [bleep] scumbags. Yeah, that’s right. So, I looked up our leaders at the time and those leaders are Trump. Mhm. Okay. Biden. Got it.
Clinton. Yeah. Hillary and Bill. Both Clintons. Yeah. Now, again, I don’t know. These are Trump linked businesses. Received 3.6 million in PPP, which is not a lot in comparison to like what he has. That’s right. Uh I thought it was going to be way more. They extended Trump. Oh, like the family, the familia. Well, there’s extended where he is maybe like on the board or on he’s an owner, etc. got 21 million. Okay. No evidence of Biden, Hillary Clinton, or Bill Clinton. Well, no. See, the thing is PPP. No, like PPP like they don’t have come like obviously Trump had a company coming in. Yeah.
Like he had an organization whereas like the Clintons they have like a foundation but it’s not like Yeah. It’s not like a [bleep] company necessarily. There was something discovered with the whole uh Doge with the Clinton. Uh what’s what’s the daughter’s name? Oh, yeah. Well, they were But that’s different. Yeah, that’s a different That’s not PPP. Chelsea. Yes. Chelsea. It’s It’s It’s weird when you get into like nonprofits. Yeah. And like things like that. What constitutes like meaning if you have a like what constitutes a a ethical expense? Meaning like if you run a nonprofit and you get a million dollar donation, where does that money go?
Yes. Where’s that money going? Where’s that money go? It’s definitely like way different money that we’re talking about. I just want to bring it up because you brought them up and I just remembered about that. But she got $88 million. Okay. Okay. That’s unethical. 10 of those million went to buy a house. a mansion. I mean, 88 million is is an exorbitant amount. That’s Come on. But I mean, if you you dictate your pay, right? But it’s nonprofit. There’s no profit, Eric. I know. Well, not for profofit, there’s a whole loophole with that because they’re they’re non-t taxable entities and there’s a whole [bleep] thing about that.
So I also looked up and this may rattle the your view of conspiracy regarding COVID because we always talk about where does the money go. Yeah. Where’s the money? Follow the money, right? I looked up the profits of the major pharmaceutical companies from the vaccines. Okay. Yeah. Uh Fizer by far in the lead. They made $90 billion. That’s so much money, bro. That’s so [bleep] much money. 90 bill from just the sale of the vaccine worldwide. 90 billion. And you know, they happen to sign that [bleep] beautiful clause where they can’t be sued. Oh yeah. Yeah. Madna 25 billion. Okay. So we’re at we’re at we’re at 115 billion.
Huge difference, right? Mhm. I mean they Fizer that that was the one that was the one. Yeah. Then coming in way last in like not even anything was Johnson and Johnson. Oh yeah. They made less than a billion dollars. Okay. So we’re at about But they were also the last ones to come out with it. They were the last ones to come out with it. And it was single shot. They they also didn’t do the mRNA. They didn’t do the mRNA technology. Yeah. And and it was a single shot. So you there’s boosters and [bleep] like that’s it. So I just thought it was interesting uh you know as we take up the conspiracies of like who made money and who didn’t make money.
Yeah made all the money. It’s worth noting that and maybe you’re going to get into this but I’m not but um the amount of money that was printed during this time. Yes. 60% of all the money supply that’s ever been made. it’s ever during this [bleep] time. You’re talking about like a two maybe three year period, whatever it was. 60% of 60% of the money in circulation. So, uh, and the next table is it’s not money supply, but it’s inflation. Okay, that I wanted to go over. And the United States and the United Kingdom had the most inflation out of anybody. And we were both United States and UK around 25% inflation.
Oh my god. That means that your money is worth 25% less. Now granted, that’s over all the things. Meaning some things are different than like housing went up at least 100%. Oh, for you know a four, I don’t know, $500,000 house went to, you know, 900 at least here in Florida, right? Japan only 9%. Canada 18%. But this gives you an idea of how much you’re now paying for things and then and you wonder what’s like you’re like this is [bleep] [bleep] Why is this happening? [bleep] eggs. How much [bleep] eggs cost nowadays? It’s like [bleep] $10. Organic nature fed grass. Yeah. Oh yeah. [bleep] cage free.
Those [bleep] are like 10 bucks. They used to be like three bucks. Yeah. I get them for my cousin for free. So for like five bucks. Hook it up. I know. I’ve been trying. Yeah. Sorry. All right. We’re just going to get chickens in Sean’s house. Me first and you last. So, that’s a lot of the That’s a lot of the money aspects of things. Um, you know, it’s hard to know like who really benefited. Obviously, Fizer did. [bleep] yeah. 90 Billy. But in relation to how much they’re worth, uh, I don’t know if their game plan is to just never ending make new drugs and then sell the new drugs.
And that’s that is the game plan. What are you talking about? No, I just mean like that’s their game plan. That’s the [bleep] business model. So that’s not I’m just saying like you know if CO was standing that’s just how they operate. Meaning meaning what if CO didn’t happen they would have done some other thing. Yeah. You know Yeah. But they wouldn’t have made 90 billion. I mean maybe they would have figured out some other way but this was the this was convenient and nice for them. Yeah. You know what we didn’t get into is um the whole how it affected the youth getting vaccinated.
Oh my god. Yeah. And the one that stands out for me is um LeBron’s son. He had a cardiac arrest playing basketball. Yeah. It was his younger his younger son. Yeah. I mean that’s one that stands out cuz it’s like obviously in the news so much, but obviously it affected others that But look at all there was football player too. There was multiple football players, multiple basketball players, soccer players, all these professional athletes that were just randomly uh would have these cardiac events and they were all vaccinated. And then you start you start to see like there was a many news figures. There was a comedian chick who literally just [bleep] just just dropped like on stage on stage like and then you start to see this is the problem.
Like the issue is the the the reason that vaccines and anything that’s like a widespread, you know, type thing that you’re injecting into your body, you look at the long the long-term effects because while okay, cool. Maybe, you know, let’s say hypothetically it was a solution to this problem, but what problems stem from this thing? And so there’s obviously this issue of like blood clotting and like people having these cardiac events. That’s what a blood clot does. block an allse prime delivery is fast. How fast are we talking?

Seven [bleep] months. Yeah. So now let’s get into the conspiracies. [bleep] yeah. Val times. You know, I know. I know a lot of of our listeners are like, “Jesus, what a shut the [bleep] up.” 4 hours leading up to the conspiracies. That’s why you guys love us. I know. So, the first one is called the lab door. Okay. It begins with a photograph, a nondescript building on Wuhan’s riverfront. The Wuhan Institute of Viology.
In January 2020, while the world is still learning of the word Corona virus, online sleuths fixate on the building in a few threads became the plot. First, Wuhan has the lab. Yes. Wuhan has the outbreak. Mhm. Coincidence? Second, scientists there publish on bat corona viruses. Some collaborate internationally. Some use techniques that sound scary to anyone who isn’t in the field. Third, officials in the city are slow and cy and then a whistleblower named Dr. Lee Wing Lang turned martyr sets a mood of secrecy. So by spring of 2020, YouTube channels and chain forwarded PDFs tell a tidy tale. A virus shaped by human hands slips past negative pressure rooms in biocurity checklists and scatters into the the markets that we talked about.
We were talking about this whole gain of function thing like they were that’s why I say by human hands we’re like oo let’s take this how can we how can we replicate this to transmit to humans like how can we gain function of this bat virus to then attack humans to then supposedly prevent a [bleep] outbreak. So so there’s two paths that you can take on this whole Wuhan thing, right? One is it’s a boweapon that they intentionally leaked or it’s a boweapon that they accidentally leaked. Either way, either way there, there’s no way around the fact that they were developing it. They did. It’s a it’s it’s almost fact, right?
It’s a fact that they literally engineered this to transmit to humans. That’s right. They did. So So to some, it’s a cover up. Mhm. And to some it’s a cover up of an accident. So it’s a cover up of a of a [bleep] To cover the [bleep] up. Or if you went extremely nefarious, it’s China’s plan andor whoever. It doesn’t have to be a country. Yeah. But whoever’s the elite, the bad guys. Let it leak. I mean, let’s be honest, though. Like there’s so much talk, oh, you know, [bleep] Bill Gates, we’re so overpopulated. And there’s all those like clips of Bill Gates saying, you know, almost alluding to when it happens.
So, you know, like pretty much alluding that there’s going to like we need to call like [bleep] call the human population, right? Which in in realistic terms, the Earth can sustain probably 20 billion people. Yeah. Like realistic. Realistically, I actually can sustain I would go more than that even. Yeah. But I get what you’re saying. The point is they’re saying, “Oh, we’re so overpopulated like and then this happens.” Mhm. But so let’s go with this. Like what would be the purpose to call the human? I was going to say like what is the motive? What is the just lower it? There’s multiple I think there’s multiple motives.
I think the main motive is control. Control. It’s like cool, we want to put something out that we know that there are certain factors that are are going to come into play, which is that, you know, people who are old and have weak immune systems or people have pre-existing conditions are probably going to die. Mhm. Uh people who are young and healthy are most likely going to be fine and people who are not necessarily old, but like you know, middle-ag and like have anybody who’s like reasonably healthy is most likely going to be fine. And as we’ve already stated, the the the death rate was sub 1%.
Mhm. So they’re like, “Cool. So we we can release something that we know is going to be sub 1% population and then we can exert extensive control over the populace.” Okay. I think that’s I think that kind of developed as it was getting out of control. It’s like, oh [bleep] we can take advantage of this, you know, event going on. So you think it was like happen stance? They were like, “Oh, maybe we should like it could also be I was as you were saying that I’m like I wonder if it’s like also a a China China incentive to but why release it in your own country though?” I know.
Like why? Like you you wouldn’t if you think it was like a China plan, why would why [bleep] your own country? Also like if you’re the bad guy along what Sean’s saying is you’re the bad guy. You have family. Yeah. You know, like you have friends like Right. Or you know, maybe maybe I’m thinking too. No, I just like a bad guy. I don’t think that I don’t think China would do that would do it in their own country. If you had a lab in like Sweden or some [bleep] you’re like, “Yeah, [bleep] it.” Or like Cincinnati. I know. They’re like, “Sorry, bro. What if they were developing it to then use it, weaponize it, and then it got it was an accident.
[bleep] I see. But why were they weaponizing this?” Well, yes, there’s what Sean keeps talking about the whole what do you call this? It’s it’s gain of function. Gain of function. Okay, fine. Scientifically, but politically you have China like what if this went like rampant across the globe or especially the US so that they can get to the top of the list as far as power. So, so increasing their ability to control things. Exactly. And that kind of leads into the great reset conspiracy. M well see the thing is like just real quick this is an interesting fact. So the Wuhan Institute of Urology it was primarily funded by the Chinese government but it did receive grants from the US government.
Just saying. Yeah. So like there was money coming in from the US as well. I don’t know what that means. I don’t know what the ties are but it did get us what else they were researching there. Totally. You know, could have been some other [bleep] that whatever we don’t even know about. Classic alien origin movie. Yeah. What are they researching in this lab? And then the the the plane come or the the ship comes. Do you start watching Earth Day? I’m on like episode like three. I was like, but it goes back to actually I love that we’re using this. Uh but like the leaders want to live forever, right?
That’s their actually that’s the origin story of the ultra rich is how to live longer. So they research things to make them live longer. That’s very true. Right. And so I’m not saying that this could happen here but there but maybe there’s some sort of research of super power and that sounds so dumb. Hey everything’s on the table. But how about this? You know what I mean? You know I’m not talking about flying. I’m I’m talking about what if you know we and I’m going to use the bat as the example, but like what can a bat do that we can’t? Exactly. Sonar andor visual without like they have a radar.
It’s like it’s like echolocation like like a dolphin. It’s like a [bleep] Yeah. Maybe it’s very simple. They’re trying to like learn how do they do that, right? And then it just goes out. But this is Okay, so think about this. You do have that whole angle of like, okay, you’re trying to superpower, trying to live forever, but what if it’s not even that? It’s like more financial and political. Okay, if I start building a nuclear weapon, shit’s going to hit the fan, right? And we’re going to go to war. This is China China thinking, right? So, what if I use another weapon like biological or virus or whatever, right?
That that can go under the radar like, you know what I mean? Totally. Okay. So, then wipe out a civilization. Exactly. Without even shooting a bullet. Exactly. Yeah. But the thing is like we already know that they infiltrate. So risky though, isn’t it? That’s my thing is like you make that and you’re like you send it, you’re like, “Yeah, eat that America.” And then like people from America travel to China and they’re like, “Fuck.” Yeah, that’s too damn it. Very intelligent. No, it’s stupid. Like Yeah. It’s transmitted via air. [bleep] All right. The next It got out before it was ready. Okay. Okay. So there was an accident involved.
Yes, for sure. Non-intentioned. It got out in China first. So, definitely accidental if that was the motive. But we’re going to look at other and if we believe the China story. Yeah. That’s what I’m saying. I’m just trying to throw throw some, you know, some some some viewpoints out there. What if this was like like an American spy is like left the door open there? In March of 2020, the streets go quiet and the skies clear. And in that silence, the hum of conspiracy is louder. Us and photos of newly installed 5G towers circulate with the captions that read, “They went up the month before the outbreak.” And this is the conspiracy of the 5G towers.
Okay. There’s Listen. Okay. I know. I’m not laughing. No, no, no, no. There there. There’s actually something to it. There is something to it. Yeah. Because we have to think about it like just from a scientific perspective which I try to do is that we don’t know what happens when you’re being like in the ancient days you weren’t being bombarded by electromagnetic frequencies like constantly like Wi-Fi all these things and there are studies that lead to you know what happened what what is actually happening to our cells by being bombarded 24 [bleep] seven by radio waves electromagnetic waves non-stop from all like just all the from your [bleep] oh I got my whole home Wi-Fi you’re just getting [bleep] [bleep] on non [bleep] stop by these way like what happens to your cells so then you go outside of your home and you got this 5G towers just pumping into just [bleep] ripping just ripping ass at you and they say they went up right this is like the implementation of 5G towers 2020 but again it was something that was being planned for years.
Yes. So, like while I think m maybe that has a factor, I don’t think the 5G caused it, but I I can I can see that maybe, you know, by your cells being bombarded by this type of [bleep] maybe weakens your immune system or makes you more susceptible to something. Sure, I can I can get behind that. So, to counter So, they were a part of it. I think it could I think it could play a not like its own standalone movie. I don’t think like 5G is like ripping out CO. I don’t think I don’t think now to counter this theory is CO was rampant in non 5G areas.
Yeah. India, Africa, [bleep] right. You know what I mean? With no towers. That’s what I’m saying. Like maybe maybe it has an effect on your ability to fight with it because you’re just being your body is just being bombarded by by foreign [bleep] frequency. Maybe it’s just weakening. Yeah, I can imagine. Like, dude, look, you put a [bleep] What happens when you go to space? There’s a big thing in space. There’s like the I for what it’s called the something belt that is like the the highest radiation belt. That’s why the a lot of the theories that we can’t go to the moon. We can’t [bleep] travel.
Figured out how to get through it because it’s this belt of radiation that’s so [bleep] intense. It’s like you’re [bleep] It’s just going to literally destroy everything. I mean technically we’re being bombarded with radiation. We’re being bombarded with slow amounts. Yeah. It’s a low amount but a constant. I mean the sun the sun is a giant nuclear reactor that is literally [bleep] radiation on us at all the time. Like non-stop. You’re like let’s go to the beach. You’re like you’re [bleep] you’re literally in a nuclear reactor. Okay. Yeah. All right. It’s a fact. It’s what it is. It’s what it is. Uh the next one is that there are chips in the vaccines.
I I I So you remember the whole Bill Gates wanting you know those interviews of him going you know the next step and I’m paraphrasing but the next step in the evolution of mankind are chip identities. Yeah. And there’s also like there there’s a new seen that they seen like the the the stores where you you check out and you like [bleep] scan your wrist and [bleep] So your palm, right? It reads your palm. It’s like it’s like your pal it’s something. And it’s like you there’s something there and you like [bleep] put it in there and it knows. I’ve had I’ve tried the palm thing.
I really I’ll never I’ll never subscribe. Well, I had to. What is the palm thing like? So, it’s a little machine that reads your palm. They have this at Whole Foods, too, but I had to do it at the hospital and and what are you going to do? You’re [bleep] at the hospital. They’re like that’s the only choice they give you. You’re not like, “No, there’s no like like sign.” So, you’re like, “Okay, I’m in the emergency room. Like, I guess I’ll do it right anyways.” Cuz I didn’t I I also didn’t want to do it. It’s just a thing that you put your palm on top and it kind of reads like your I don’t know.
I think it’s like your vein patterns or some [bleep] like that. So, it’s kind of like a your love line. So, you’re in the system. I’m in the system 100%. You got 1984. Yeah. Yeah. He’s done. But you can also do it at Whole Foods, by the way. Why? I don’t know. Cuz [bleep] Amazon is Amazon. Yeah. I’m just trying to like They’re going to like, you know, the best data is your personal data. Yeah. I didn’t I don’t I actually subscribe a little I don’t believe that there was microchips but I kind of subscribe to the idea of the intention behind that they wanted to do it.
Yes. Yeah. I don’t think there was microchips in it cuz also it’s like how do you get like a nano [bleep] nano microchip and how do you even read it and like what data are you going to get from it? I just seems like we don’t we’re not there yet. No, we’re not there yet. I think they would probably want to and and so that’s a good point. We’re not there yet, but I think they want to get they want to. I think they want to. And so this whole situation, we’ll call it that, right? Like this whole thing was take let’s take advantage of the situation.
I don’t think it was on purpose. Like let’s release the co and this is our whole master plan. But it’s like, oh [bleep] this like this thing is spreading worldwide. Let’s see who takes it. Yeah. Let’s see how many [bleep] idiots take. Let’s see how much we can control them. Let’s see who takes it. Let’s see how much like uh fear we can get away with. Let’s see if we can how much divide we can get away with. Remember the riots? Oh my god. You know, and the whole like I don’t know even like January 6 and the whole capital thing like and like it was all used as part of the plan.
Yeah. It’s all part of like the the script as we say. Exactly. Also, one thing I I thought it was we brought it up was like when they were doing like the live vaccines, I’m like how do we know they were even getting the vaccine? Yeah. Like just here you go. It’s like vitamin B shot. They’re like see they’re doing it. you like how it’s just like ompic check it out. It’s going great. Love it. Okay. So, do you think there’s anything to the master plan of chipping people though? I I do think there’s something there. I I think it’s maybe like a test. I just don’t think they have the tech for it yet.
I don’t think the technology is like there for widespread consumption. Yeah. I mean, I just don’t I mean, it’s in the It’s kind of there. Exactly. You chip your dog. You chip your dog. You chip your dog. No, but the see the thing is like your dog. But the thing But the chip is like it’s like it’s like in their ear. It’s not like And what is it? Is it? It’s just like a location. It’s like a tracking. It’s just location. Just GPS. Yeah. So apparently it’s more information. So it’s So it’s GPS, name, address, phone number. No, but the thing is like look, why why chip someone when you have their cell phone which is going to give you their name, their current location, their browser history, sexual sexual conquest, everything, their text messages, like it’s going to give you far more data and far easy access.
Like you’re going to know everything about me, my social, my [bleep] passwords. Like I just don’t think like what’s the point of chipping right now? Maybe it’s not there yet. Yeah. It’s like if you’re going to chip somebody, you’re going to want to have access. The point is the point is control. the point like look at China where they have all their um facial recognition. Oh yeah. The social the social credit score. So the credit score is wild. Yeah. Like that that that is a scary isn’t it? Right. It definitely is. And now with AI now with AI it’s on steroids and that’s a real thing.
No. No. Didn’t we didn’t we brought it up? I don’t know if it was in the co episodes but we brought it up where it’s like if in China if let’s say like you were jaywalking and they get you they they take the money for the ticket out of your out of your account. Yeah. And that’s out of your [bleep] bank account. It’s just gone. They’re taking it. So now it’s not that far off then, right? I mean, it’s only facial recognition, right? Like in China, right? Yeah, it’s facial recognition. I’m pretty sure. Yeah. Who knows? Yeah. But look at just how they silenced everybody on social media when this whole thing was going down, dude.
Yeah. You know, so you have to conform. Even us, we we didn’t do this episode for years. Now we were afraid. We were afraid to do it. H. We thought we were going to get nuked if we did it, so we didn’t do it. Yeah. All right. And it’s not like we have any like bargaining power. Like we have [bleep] nothing. We’re like a nobody podcast. I mean, in a small scale, we’re like getting used to Apple Pay. Like I don’t really carry my wallet anymore. I know. Me, too. I only for ID. I realized how convenient it was and I didn’t I I never used it.
And then I And then I forgot my wallet one time and I was like, “Holy shit.” Yeah. And I just paid for all of my things this day. I don’t I don’t do that. I mean, granted, I still have all my my cards saved. That’s cuz you don’t have Apple. Let’s just put put it out there for everybody. Okay. No, but I still have all I have Samsung Pay. Like, it’s on my phone like and my shit’s in there. I just don’t use it. And like I everything’s saved in like my Google keychain. I I go like a pay like my my power bill and it’s like bing.
It just like uploads everything and I’m like thank god I don’t have to [bleep] type that in again. Woo. Like hell yeah. Convenience. I love that. Like our generation like hates the male. Oh, it’s like why do we still have the [bleep] mail? It’s nothing but bad news. Did you know that every [bleep] time like I some I guess some time on the [bleep] life I selected paperless on my [bleep] water? So I only get it when it’s like we’re shutting your water off tomorrow. I’m like [bleep] it every time. It’s every month I’m always like [bleep] and I got to pay the water. I literally hate the mail so much.
Like there’s no good news. unfortunate all the time. Do you hate the mail more or getting a phone call? Oh. Oh god. Well, I get so many phone calls that I I’m like, yeah, you’re good. The mail is the worst though cuz I have to open and I’m like, what is this? If I don’t know you like intimately, right? I don’t pick up the phone for you. Oh, no. If you’re not saved in my contacts, you’re going straight to voicemail. Yeah. Yeah. I actually end it before I don’t even let it ring all the way. I’m like, and [bleep] you. I’m like, know that I don’t want to talk to you.
So the next conspiracy is is what we kind of talked about which is called the great reset. Um one of the most persistent narratives that circulated online and in the media was the great reset to understand why it captured so much attention. Let’s put it into historical context and then this new environment of fear that happened during the pandemic. The term the great reset was not originally born out of a conspiracy. It actually came from something documented which was the world economic forum. Oh great organization a global organization where business leaders, politicians and academics met annually in Switzerland. Bilderbergs in 2020 as the pandemic disrupted economies worldwide.
These leaders proposed the idea of the great reset. Their aim was to encourage governments and businesses to rebuild economies in a more sustainable way after CO 19 and create. Do you remember when they were trying to get the euro to be Oh yeah. Yeah. Like worldwide or just Well, I mean it was like a test. It was a it was a talk and there I remember the whole like Brexit thing or some [bleep] like that, right? Like you had to like Mhm. get into um well in Europe Europe yeah in Europe they basically and the European Union and and help me out our European fans love you guys especially London peace baby it crazy it um Mint is still $15 a month for premium wireless and if you haven’t made the switch yet here are 15 reasons why you should one it’s $15 a Two, seriously, it’s $15 a month.
Three, no big contract. Four, I use it. Five, my mom uses it. Are you Are you playing me off? That’s what’s happening, right? Okay. Give it a try at midmobile.com/switch. Upfront payment of $45 for three month plan, $15 per month, equivalent required. New customer offer first three months only. Then full price plan options available. Taxes and fees extra. See mintmobile.com. Streaming September 4th on Peacock. We sell toilet tissue and local newspapers. That is in order of quality. Going to take a little time. From the crew that brought you The Office. My name is Ned Samson. I am your new editor-inchief. Comes a new comedy series.
Have you read this paper? Uh-huh. It sucks. But we are going to make it better. Meet the underdog journalist. I hope it’s not too disruptive to have me shake everything up. Don’t be so self-deprecating with major issues. Oscar. Oh god, not again. The paper only on Peacock September 4th. No. So these are all different countries. This is your opinion. Their own. Yeah, there but but before the whole Euro thing, there were their own countries. Yeah. They like for example like Italy had the LRA and like you had the Deutsch mark and you had like all these Yeah. And so they moved to a currency that is a unilateral currency.
Exactly. So some say that that is the start of trying to create a worldwide concern. A one also like the whole one world government was order before co or during co it was before co it was before it was well before they but then there was also the talks of the you remember that which was which was like a whole NAFTA thing which is like uh you know Mexico Canada like a a one currency for like this continent right but so the idea then would be to create it’s the great reset consolidation of power a one world government one world currency. The idea here is that it’s this COVID crisis was used andor deliberately staged in order to create the fear to consolidate power and to create a one world government.
Well, I mean it’s like all these things like you know we talked about I we did an episode on it was um project blue beam and then we mentioned the whole in the news me and Jorge brought up the the supposed mother ship or like the thing coming for earth and it’s like how how do you create enough chaos and fear that people are like [bleep] just take the wheel. That’s right. Like [bleep] do it for us please. Like we we need you. Yeah. No, like that’s absolutely correct. or I mean you know exactly what we’re talking about and so they do lockdowns, mask mandates, vaccines etc.
and they they push the envelope of how much can we enforce upon the populace. Yeah. Like and without them without them like revoling. Yeah. Because you got to I mean there were revolts or there were there were riots riots but not not just here. Not a lot though. There was definitely a lot. Well, no, they were a little short period. No, but those a lot of those weren’t against the mandates, though. What were they against? They were just people wanting to loot and [bleep] steal [bleep] It wasn’t It wasn’t really like like, “Oh, we’re going to march to [bleep] stop this.” They were like, “Hell yeah.” Like, that sword looks hot.
Get back to the point of what I was talking about. It’s like taking advantage of the, you know, situation. So, we got to create this divide. We already had spoken about the churches being shut down, so religion gets cut out. That’s right. See, it’s it’s [bleep] tactical, bro. It’s it’s a tactical [bleep] It’s not like these [bleep] [bleep] They’re not like, “Oo, they’re not like opportunistic like, ooh, this is a good opportunity.” They’re like they’re trying to create the situations like they’re they’re this is like long game. This is like we’re they’re thinking hundreds of years in advance. This is like 5D chess [bleep] Like where they’re like, “Ooh, like how do we get more?” Because imagine this.
Just imagine. And look, I’m not saying like this this imagine you have a shitload of power and control. Like what’s your game at that point, right? Like if you’re a a good What is your game? If if you’re money, well, that’s the thing. Like what happens is okay, I have I already have the money. No, but no, but see like what money is money? Let’s say you have more money than you can ever spend. Yes. What’s the game? Power. Yes. How do I get more for you and your people? can buy those things like no but thing is like control how do I how do I get a little bit more and then how do I get a little bit more they’re like you know what I’m and you start thinking like I’m so superior to everyone else I should be making the rules right look at look at what I did look at how [bleep] successful and powerful I am these people don’t know what they’re doing they need me and then that that becomes a justification is like how they make They’re [bleep] like if they did what they did, they’d be [bleep] without [bleep] psychotic.
Yeah. They’re [bleep] crazy. They think that they are the only solution and therefore they need to have the power to be able to make these decisions. Exactly. And that’s how you make it okay. That’s how you make it okay. Like it’s totally okay because they would die without me. That’s like that’s the government’s like without us these people would be [bleep] We need to do this as this is this is the only right thing we can do guys is by just owning them. I need to own you. That’s at the highest level and then let’s say a little bit lower it’s like at the government senators level or something like that.
It’s money they just want it’s oh that level is hella cash. How can we control everything so that I mean look at Pelosi like what how is it possible that she’s worth $300 million? No. No. See, at that level, at that level, it’s it’s well, at that level, it’s it’s literally just money. They’re like, “How can I get super rich?” But like, they’re we’re talking about the ultra the the [bleep] that are like, “I could the next 70 generations are like rich as fuck.” Like, they don’t give a [bleep] about money. We already got money. Money. And then you even get into the whole political global political aspect of it, right?
So, nations, how can one nation overtake another one? And you know, China, how can they become the number one? Or I don’t know, let’s say the the Arab prince is like, how can I [bleep] control everything? I don’t know. How do I make the world Dubai? Well, in the context of the Great Reset, the end goal per conspiracy believers of this is that the people own nothing, but they’re happy. Oh, you love it. You You’re thankful. You’re thankful because of what you had said. Yeah, you’re thankful for not having the responsibility. You don’t You’re not responsible for it. The government takes care of us. Well, look at the credit system.
So, like socialism or slavery? It’s not It’s not quite socialism. It’s It’s an extreme socialism or No, it’s more communism. Communism. No, it’s volunt It’s voluntary servitude. Like you volunteer to be to be a slave. Yeah. You’re volunt you’re you asking for it. You’re voting you’re voting to be a slave because you can’t be responsible for them. Yeah. Whereas like now it’s pretty crazy. We live in a constitutional republic and the whole point is that you have inaliable rights and like you’re supposed to govern yourself. I mean in in a in a realistic standpoint, we’re supposed to be governing oursel based on the the the basic principles that are set in stone like you know hey like you know don’t kill people and like don’t do [bleep] stupid [bleep] Mhm.
And then the government is supposed to facilitate that. Like, okay, cool. We’re going to handle all like the civic [bleep] [bleep] Like, you know, the roads got to be [bleep] maintained. We got to maintain the plumbing. We got to keep power coming to your [bleep] Like, hell yeah. I We [bleep] need the government for that. I need the government to keep the power on. I need the government to keep the [bleep] water flowing and to keep me being able to like, you know, boil [bleep] mac and cheese for my four-year-old. Like, I need that. I need it. I’m not I’m not saying like no government.
Like I need the government for that 100%. But when they start making these type of decisions, you have to [bleep] inject yourself with this foreign substance. You have to. There’s no [bleep] choice. You don’t have a [bleep] choice. And it’s like that that’s when it gets the government’s purpose is to facilitate your life. It’s to facilitate you living the life that you decide you want to lead. It’s not to tell you that, yeah, you got to you got to put something in your body, right? like that like that that at a base as a baseline like human right. That’s a that’s a basic human right like you can decide if you want to eat this you know eat this piece of bread or eat this or or inject this random boy like I don’t why do I have to do that?
I shouldn’t have to do that. Like what the [bleep] Absolutely. Well, then uh another one is and we went over a little bit of this, but this is the inflated death conspiracy or the inflation of fear. Well, you know, it’s it’s the false it’s the false numbers which we’ve talked about numbers. Um and this this story or this part of it takes place on spreadsheets and in obituaries where it’s basically and you had mentioned it at the beginning which is if somebody has a heart attack Mhm. But they’re COVID positive, right? Is it CO or is it the heart attack or is it the pre-existing condition?
And maybe they maybe they had CO but is it is it a contributing factor? Is it the reason? Yes. So then the question then begs they have antibodies like you know what’s the purpose of that? Like what was the purpose of inflating fear? Money. Money in control. So it’s money and control in that in that particular case. remember they did get paid out for treating co COVID patients. Yeah. But it’s also it’s also if you look at it from from this from this side of the coin is like see we we did all this [bleep] that was you thought was infringing upon your rights but see it worked.
See see look at this. See we did this and it worked. See you you need to let you need to let us do this. If we do this more often this doesn’t happen anymore. You no longer have these problems. Yeah. like a proof that we’re right. But but but but but getting back to that point is it is it was tied to money. Now at the same at the same time like you know I read um what my wife had said about that they were treating everybody cuz you had to like you don’t know if this person has co if they do then you got to treat them differently.
You got to isolate them a little bit differently and stuff like that. Especially at the beginning you know towards like after whatever 6 months 10 months whatever it is like it’s different. Yeah. You kind of know by that point it’s like, “Oh, this isn’t the high, you know, high ass mortality rate that we thought it might be.” Exactly. And it’s also if you if you have like [bleep] emphyma, like you’re probably at a much higher risk of this, you know, highly respiratory [bleep] affecting thing than if you were completely super healthy. Yeah. Yeah. But the question then is that Well, I mean, the point though too is that we don’t know.
Let’s say for example, you had stomach cancer and you were going to die. You were stage four and or above. You were going to die anyways. I know that’s morbid. No. Okay. But like say hypothetically, if you had CO, you got CO, would they mark it as a COVID death or like a terminal terminal cancer death? Right. And they probably marked it as CO. They did. Probably did. Probably did. Yeah. Pretty sure they did. Yeah. They’re like, “You have two weeks to and they’re like, “Oh, I’ve gone with it like co I did look up some uh statistics about the reimbursement of hospitals.” Okay. Yeah.
Um because I was also with with uh your wife’s, you know, story and this sort of thing. So, it wasn’t like a straight like, “Hey, we’re going to bonus you.” Mhm. Of course. More convoluted. Yeah. It’s a little bit more convoluted, but there were incentives. Does that make like Okay. So, for example, this is just the United States. I don’t necessarily know how it worked in UK. Yeah. Um but Medicare set specific diagnosis related group payments for COVID 19 hospitalizations. Yeah. Just say what the payments were. No. Oh, there’s like we did look up the car’s act and it was like 1,700 just for treating them and it was like 9,000 I believe if they were put on a um ventilator.
Yes, that’s correct. So, because caring for CO patients required isolation, PPE, ventilators, and generally speaking, longer stays. Yeah. Medicare’s payment was about 20% higher than the comparable non-COVID hospitalization payments. Right. And we also we also know like that when you go to the hospital it’s like you’re getting like the prices you’re being charged for random things like band-aid $400 $900 for an Advil and that’s legit like actually like it’s crazy. So with that being said it’s hard to like go were they being paid were they being like incentivized is this kind of thing. They they were they were I mean they were being incentivized for sure but again but it’s not supposed to be an incentive.
It’s supposed to be a recuperating, you know, money cost. Yeah. But of course, if you’re a hospital, you’re like, like my wife said in her story, everybody gets treated for CO no matter what. Now, is that because okay, we’re in the middle of a pandemic. We want to make sure. Yes. But also because of the fact that, oh well, we if you’re coming into the hospital and Medicare is going to pay for you, [bleep] hospitals going to get paid more. Well, they’re going to get waxed. Yeah. Let’s do a couple extra tests just to be safe. Yeah, they’re going to get that if you are constipated.
Mhm. Yes. If you walk into the ER, you’re getting Speaking of Man, I just reminded myself of the the COVID exams. You know, I went through the drive-thru one. No. Yes. At the very beginning, shove that into your brain. Oh, we’re just going to we’re just going to tickle just tickle tickle the brain. You won’t feel a thing. And they’re like [bleep] ram it up your nose and weird. You’re like weird. I forgot my fifth birthday. [bleep] No, they did it. I literally like tears came into my eyes. I was like, “What the fuck?” I was like, “What the [bleep] just happened?” They’re like, “Okay, you’re done.” I’m like, “No, it’s like, “Oh, we got to do the other side now.
Man up. Man up. Man up.” No, I remember I had to go all the way to St. Pete. It’s 30 to 40 minutes away. But we had to go to the Tropicana Field and you had to do a line and I remember waiting about like 2 hours in this line and then finally just get to get a little brain tickle. But why would you wait or did you have to do it for work or something? Why would you wait for it? That was at the very beginning and I was kind of like, “Oh shit.” Like I kind of feel something and it was like there was no information on it.
So you kind of wanted to know like how like if you did get it or not so you can isolate from your family. That’s kind of that was my thought. You know what’s strange about it all? There was no solution. No. Meaning I didn’t care if I got Maybe that’s why I never got positive because I never tested much. H. So I probably like maybe I did get it, but I was always like, “Hey, there’s no solution to this.” So So what’s the point? What’s the point of me getting it, you know what I mean? Or getting the I think I just kind of fell into the whole I don’t know, narrative of it or whatever.
Yeah. No. No. But see, the thing is too, it’s like, you know, you It’s so weird like I think a lot of people got it to prevent themselves from getting it and then they just got it anyways. Yeah. So then I think that’s why a lot of people were like, “What the [bleep] going on?” Like I got this thing to prevent this thing from happening and I got the thing. So why did I take the thing to prevent it? I just got it anyways. Like so last uh thing on on how much um and it was reported that uh there were figures of roughly $13,000 per patient.
Mhm. That’s a lot of money per patient of uh COVID admittance. Well, you think of like 700 million patients and $39,000 for a ventilator. Wow. There’s no way a ventilator is that cost that that expensive. I mean, you’re on it for what, like a week, maybe? 40 G’s, 40 racks. You know what the average income is for the United States? 50K. But a lot of hospitals couldn’t get it, so they had to buy inflated prices of ventilators. Okay. But still, also these 40 racks every day someone they’re reusable. Also, just FYI, these are Medicare reimbursement rates. Oh, that’s just that’s just what you’re getting paid back for.
Just Medicare. This is Medicare. Not even like Yeah. Medicaid and then you got insurance. Yeah. I mean, there’s so much. So, but I don’t I don’t know. I don’t know what that equates to in in the sense of like if I go in, I don’t know, I’m bleeding out my eyes and I go in you admit me. No, no. Nothing nothing related to CO but I don’t know I don’t know how much I would be paying anyways. Does that make sense? Meaning it might be 20 grand for a ventilator or for what? For anything just for a patient in the hospital. The thing is like the thing that you’re not you’re not realizing it’s like if you need surgery.
No, this is a reimbursement on top of like your insurance. Yeah. So it’s like there’s insurance payout like what the insurance is paying but then they’re being reimbursed additionally for this money. So, they’re making like double the They’re making double cash. Love espresso, drip coffee, and cold brew. With the Ninjalux Cafe, if you can crave it, you can brew it. Espresso balanced.

It’s like you’re getting paid 40 racks for a [bleep] homie on a ventilator. 40 racks. At this time, we also had trillions of dollars being printed. That’s true. Everybody’s getting a piece. Oh, dude. They’re all like, “So, if you’re our UK listeners, you kind of got a glimpse into the psychoticness of the American health care system.” Yeah. The classic American healthare system. That’s why most of us, we break our arm. We literally stay home and wrap it in duct tape.
Yeah. It’s like, how many socks we got in that thing? Yes. So, in summary though, man up. Yeah. Man up. So in summary though it is true that hospitals in the US received higher reimbursement for COVID 19 cases but some would justify it as those costs were increased to service them in the first place. Yeah. So it’s just like it’s like anything people are always going to abuse things. They’re all they’re always going to abuse it. Yeah. Like it’s just it’s just the way it is. Like people are always looking for a fast way to cash, you know? That’s why, you know, someone will like, oh, you, you know, you slightly rear end someone and they like smash their face into the [bleep] steering wheel to be like, oh, I’m hurt.
You know, everyone’s always looking for that quick buck. Yeah. I’m just saying if you’re a hospital, like, why would you not like the money’s going to go somewhere and I’m treating these patients for profit scenario? No. Well, hospitals, we’re still going to profit. We’re still going to nonprofit. And by the way, not not all of them are nonprofit. My pro-ocialism is going about to come out. Not all of them were nonprofit. Listen, socialism is not a good system. I know, but I’m just saying in certain aspects, you know, the medical situation and human rights and everything like that. Oh, you’re talking about socialism and human rights.
I’m talking about No, I’m talking about the the the medical costs are inflated because it’s a profit enterprise. True. So, there’s a reason why they’re charging the $10,000 for a jello pudding. It’s because they can. Well, they should be. It’s a it’s a capitalistic view of it, right? Well, there should be there should be regulations on on the healthare system for sure. I I agree. There should be but but you realize like in in a socialism standpoint, who’s paying for it anyways? You are. Yeah. Your tax inflated, not to mention but your taxes are paying for it in socialism. I’m not we’re not maybe using the word socialism is not the right sense, but universal healthare.
Yeah. more a more like a a more humane yes humane system for medical agree there’s got to be maybe a little bit better balance but the balance on the other side socialist countries with their healthcare you’re not getting in right now you’re you’re well I’ve seen things where like I there was like this chick who was is on social media I don’t know what her name is but she was talking about she made like an appointment she had to make an appointment like a year and a half in advance oh wow it’s But we’ll see you in a year and a half for this like life-threatening issue.
Just look at the veteran system. Oh yeah. Do you go to the VA hospital? You’re talking about months out. Also, there is and to counter what I’m even talking about. Uh there is the concept of of uh like I have family in Ireland and they got a surgery done through the system that was free for them and it was so low. Like it was such a low standard of care care that they [bleep] up the surgery. Oh my god. Do you know what I mean? And now they’re now they’re stuck with a debilitating situation because the surgery was so poor. Wow. Well, that’s what you know the thing with the whole concept with like, you know, communism is is the same situation we were talking about in the beginning is like why would you want to be in the healthcare field?
Why would you want to be a nurse? Cuz like in communism it’s like you’re going to get paid the same regardless. Why would I want to go to school for [bleep] 15 years to be a doctor? Like I I might as well be the work at 7-Eleven. I get paid the same. Like yolo. Yeah, [bleep] it. So, as we come to the conclusion of this series on COVID 19 and the pandemics, we went over the plagues of antiquity all the way leading up to the COVID 19 crisis. The story of pandemics is one of devastation and adaption. Yes. Each pandemic left its mark on the world and it forced change in society and knowledge.
For example, the Black Death transformed medieval Europe. Oh, hell yeah. From the destruction of indigenous people in America, um the 1918 flu being largely forgotten because of World War I, but all of these things led to the pandemic playbook. Yes. Mhm. And classic, you know, not to be dark, but we have learned a lesson in this series, which is that pandemics are part of human history. They are past and present. Present and future. Future. And look, this is not in no way, shape, or form am I saying that like this wasn’t a real thing. I got it. I mean, I [bleep] got it and it sucked.
And so, like, I’m not saying it was fake. It [bleep] sucked ass. It was wor it was terrible. So then the question becomes you know how important was the early action? How important was taking action? And did we succeed on CO 19? And was the action worth the consequences? Was it worth it andor was there nefarious activities involved? Was it Oh yeah. Was it an overriding plan or was it just within the situation there was nefarious activities? She was like, was it a was it a opportunistic yes sucking grab or was it like plotted like this is what we’re going to do? Yes, that’s right.
So, as we move forward with humanity, then the question becomes what happened with CO 19? Did we do it right? Did we do it wrong? Um and or was like I said before, was there something else involved? And so here at this point, it’s what do you guys think? What is your, you know, now that we’ve spent four hours, five hours on this, learning the history, do you think something occurred that was nefarious at the beginning or because of it? Track. I think because of it. I think because let’s go. So it’s kind of I spoke to this about about this earlier and it I think it was because of it and I think that like whoever like there’s not one person it’s like multiple entities persons I don’t know like and that’s kind of part of the conspiracy like you don’t really know who’s behind [bleep] sometimes right but when you know this thing starts going off it’s like okay can we control the population can we control the narrative can we uh everything kind of like leads back to control, you know, and and like I said on social media, you’re being suppressed on even physically you can’t leave your house.
Can we can we install enough fear to control the population? So, I think it has something to do with that. And who is that? Well, that’s that’s the thing. It’s like you don’t really we don’t you don’t know and it’s very hard to [bleep] like pinpoint someone. Yeah. uh in the US a lot of goes back to George Soros, you know, and how his influence to like you know uh behind the the riots and the destabilization of the population. That’s one aspect of it. Another aspect of it is the whole money thing. So you got um not just the government, but you got Wall Street like like salivating at this [bleep] they’re grasping on to how can I get mine?
How can Yeah, exactly. How can we get paid on this? So, as soon as the, you know, the Fed starts printing money, it’s like they know again the playbook. Fed Fed starts play uh printing money, which by the way, we’re about to get into a whole another um whole another phase of this, a whole another phase of this cuz the interest rates are coming down now. Also, Trump is not going to allow a recession. Yes. And and I’m glad you brought up Trump because that’s another aspect of it is the political aspect of it. Okay. Let’s not forget there’s an there was an election in 2020.
This happens right on the cusp of him like you know the the last year’s basically a re uh campaign for to getting reelected. Yeah, it was. Yeah, it definitely was 100%. And so I think a big point a big part of his campaign was like the operation warp speed was a big [bleep] part of it. Yes. So, you know, you got that whole aspect of like, okay, we at this point now, years later, we can see look back and it’s very clear how he was being so attacked and he still is, by the way, like just being like everything is blocked by the other party uh that that anybody that didn’t agree with Trump and even [bleep] Republicans were like not on his side and [bleep] like that.
So anyways, you got like all these different aspects to it, but again, it all leads back to this is the perfect time to jump on and take advantage of pushing our agenda, even the one world government agenda. Like can we get them away from religion? Can we, you know, um even the microchipping thing, like can we make everybody agree to one thing type of thing, you know what I mean? Like and that that all like leads back to the chipping and then also the money. Can we all like kind of unify each other under this big universal umbrella? Yeah. Universal attack against humanity, blah blah blah.
Right. And then it’s like, okay, well, we all got to stick together, quote unquote, right? And then you can roll out a unified government. That’s what I think is all behind this. But do you think that there is a cabal a concerted effort that is that exists? There has to be. Yes. Does that make sense? Like there has to be and the reason the reason is like an emanation point. Yeah. There’s there’s like the source of of the [bleep] [bleep] You know what we spoke about the uh the World Financial Organization, right? No, it’s a World Economic Forum. Economic Forum. Okay, there you go. And the IMF, you know, IMF and the WHO and the [bleep] like come on.
We know that there’s a a worldwide cabal if you want to count call it that or or at least some sort of organization and interest you know of of this unification so that the elites stay elite. Yeah. There there’s to to Hor’s point it’s like look you have all these organizations and you have the United Nations you have all these things you have all these things where there’s one person who’s there to represent an entire [bleep] populace of people you mean to tell me that every single one of those people are saints they’re [bleep] untainted un unfucking you know touched by special interest like all those people are [bleep] completely just, you know, I only care about No.
No. Get the [bleep] out of here. No, that’s not the way it works. Unfortunately. And just one more thing, back to the whole political thing. Remember how much Trump’s image was of like he’s an outsider and he’s like draining. The whole his whole campaign was draining the swamp at But he is a politician. But he now I think now he is. I think the first I think he’s a politician. The first term I think it was like less than now. Well, I think the first term and then he like had a bunch of people and then they were like, “Yeah, do this.” But the the sole fact is like look, I like Trump.
I like the things he’s doing, but he’s a politician. So therefore, innately I have distrust, right? Like I don’t really trust any politician. I don’t care. Like if you’re a politician, the way the system works, I don’t I really don’t like fully trust you. But the first time around, remember, he was attacking everybody and trying to like expose their crimes. Yeah. And he got nuked for it. Exactly. And so this is part of the nuke. That’s my thing. That’s just one part of it. Not saying that this was the whole reason like, you know, went worldwide was because of Trump or anything, but that’s definitely one part of it.
Like again, going back to my point is just they’re taking advantage and these are different groups that are taking advantage of different things. Okay? It’s not just one thing. So it’s all opportunistic. Like it happens and are like perfect, we can use this to our just to pinpoint and to like zone in devil’s, right? No. No, no. Like, did somebody create co? Yes. That’s a fact. It’s a fact. That’s a fact. But you’re saying like intentionally. Intentionally. Yes. Gain of function research. It’s proven fact. So, it was an accident. Or did it get released? No, that’s what I’m saying. Yes, it got I think it got released.
I think it obviously it was created. We’ve proven the fact that it was gain of function research that it could not transmit to human beings. They made it so it could get transmitted to human beings. They [bleep] It’s bact. They literally made this virus to be able to go to humans from animals, right? They made it. They did it. That’s the whole purpose of the [bleep] institute to [bleep] gain a function. Ooh, let’s take a thing and let’s see if we can make it go to humans and how do we how do we [bleep] work? But the qu the question is is was it accidental and or intentional?
Jorge thinks it was accidental and then they they took they used the opportunity to to exercise control. I think it was intentional. They intentionally released it with the sole purpose of exercising more control. They released it on purpose. It was why make something to not like they they made it and they were like we here’s what’s going to happen. We’re going to [bleep] do this and we’re going to [bleep] let it ride and then we’re going to [bleep] put the hammer down on everybody because what are you going to say? What are you going to say when in your family it’s it’s it’s the greatest it’s the greatest [bleep] pressure you could ever do?
Your family’s going to die. What are you going to do? You going to let us do what we need to do or you going to let your family die? Right. Obviously, most people are going to be like, “Do what you got to do? I don’t want my [bleep] family to die.” Yeah. But like that’s that’s the pressure. I think they did it on purpose to exercise unilateral control. And it’s and here’s the thing is like in order to in order to control the populace, it’s a long game. You can’t do it. You can’t do it all at once. Look at what happened with England. They they [bleep] up.
They like they they [bleep] it up. They were like, “Hey [bleep] like give us 2% tax.” And they were like they were like, “Listen, bro. Why don’t you slow your [bleep] roll? Like we’re not going to play this game.” So you do it slow. It’s very slow and it’s a slow erosion of your rights. It’s a slow erosion. Like, you know, the Grand Canyon wasn’t made overnight, baby. It was made over [bleep] hundreds and thousands of years of a little trickle of water. So, that’s the whole point is a slow erosion of like, cool. Yeah, you let us do a little bit. You let us do a little bit.
And then in a hundred years from now, it’s like 1984. It’s like, yeah, of course we have access to your [bleep] cell phone. Of course, of course we have access to all your records. Duh. This is for your safety. It’s for It’s for your safety. It’s for your health. Social security. It’s national security. It’s We We’re here to help you. We want to help you. We’re the government. We love you. We love you. We’re all rich and you’re all poor. And that’s okay. That’s okay. Trust us. You guys are fine. And you got Netflix. You’re safe. You’re safe. Look at the TV. Look at reality television.
Isn’t it so fun? Great. No. So I think it was the deliberate it was a deliberate thing because here’s what we can do like how other how else are they able to to affect like a global effect you need you need something like this this is like this is the purpose it’s the uh it’s the impetus or the the spark I’m not saying I’m not saying that like pandemics don’t happen they do it’s proven it’s a fact they do happen but obviously we we engineered this This was created and it’s a fact that it was it’s it it was. Yeah, it was created. It was engineered to then transmit to humans.
It’d be different if it was like, “Oh [bleep] it just happened.” And and there there was no gain of function research and it was like, “Oh [bleep] it just happened.” And we’re like, “Oh fuck.” And then they, you know, opportunistic on it. Yeah. But they made it. They [bleep] made it. Yeah. Like be different if it was like outbreak where it’s like a monkey just gets away. Yeah. like, you know, [bleep] you know, 28 Days Later. I mean, there’s there’s similarities there, though. I know with the monkey and the bat and the Yeah. I don’t know. Monkey and a bat are kind of different. Bats don’t have a posable.
So, uh I am more on leaning to Jorge’s side of things. Yeah. There you go. Uh I I don’t I think it was an accident. Yeah. I think you’re right, Sean, in the sense of that they did it in they intentionally were testing and they intentionally were doing things. I think there was an accident and then it was a neverending PR trying to solve it and a never-ending scramble of chaos and even our own government going I don’t know what to do. let’s just keep doing things day by day creating this new things and then people took advantage of it on different levels and it became like this is universal cash grab.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much and every country has their own agendas story and their own their own story and their own agendas. Our agendas over here in the US is money obviously [bleep] printing money. Everybody, you know, everybody’s getting getting their own cash grab. Whether that you’re a business, whether you want a sty check, or whether you’re Wall Street making [bleep] billions of dollars. That’s one thing. And another thing is don’t forget the [bleep] riots and the whole division and the political Yeah. the the political and the racism and the the whole like uh religion. And there was a lot of different Well, here’s the thing is like how do you like if you have a unified people the government they would then realize they would realize that the government kind of is unnecessary the way it is.
So if you get them separated and al and obviously we’re working on the system that we have now. It’s like where you make votes. So it’s like if we’re separated you’ll you’ll never get voted out. Yeah. You’ll never you’ll never you’ll never get [bleep] like oh okay 100% of the people are like [bleep] off like get the [bleep] out of here and now you got like 40 40 and 40 and then like 20 people are like [bleep] off I don’t want to have anything to do with this that’s another thing of why it got perpetuated I think and then the political aspect of it again is voting and if you can’t show up to vote oh yeah remember that so that’s like now you got to do a mailin voting well who gets to a mail who’s checking who’s check who’s checking these [bleep] mail in you don’t need a ID you don’t need to prove If anything, you just send in your votes.
Yeah. Oh, it happened to be that uh the next candidate was the most popular [bleep] candidate ever based on votes. [bleep] Well, I do know that that the what we did go over is the historical sense of it. And we did see a pattern. Oh, there definitely there is a playbook that humanity subscribes to. Oh, for sure. And we followed the playbook. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? meaning humanity that’s why I love history actually is because you can see the patterns of what what does humanity do and that sort of thing and so I I don’t know I you know I don’t know I don’t know the answer but you know at the same time I do see that we replicated history but I think we did it better right because it was less than 1% compared to all the other ones well it’s hard to say that because it’s like obviously certain things are more deadly than other things.
Yes. Like this isn’t [bleep] bubanic plague. Correct. So it’s a little different. A little different for sure. Correct. And so it’s it’s hard it’s hard to say that definitively. I know. Yes. Correct. Very. So like statistically, yes, we did a better stat from statistics standpoint. Yes. It was much better. I do agree though and I I went back or I do I do agree with the vaccination push. I found that to be nefarious. Oh yeah, that’s [bleep] up. I’m I’m with you on that. Like I do not subscribe to that. And so in if I had to say what was a conspiracy I 100% believe the push of vaccinations was that.
Yes. That’s very clear. Yeah. So let’s just follow the money. That’s all he said. So I can be on board with that that part of it. Yeah. There you go. We’d love to hear you guys’ take on. and we want to hear all the different theories and stories and and uh email us and uh comment the Patreon. We’ll likely have to do an update. I’m just going to say that now. Yeah, we’ll most likely have to do like you guys write in and then we’re like this, we missed that. Yes, 100%. It’s also a huge topic to grab. I mean like you could do like 70 episodes on just this topic.
Absolutely. And we should probably do one eventually on vaccines. Oh yeah, for sure. history of vaccines leading up to today. You know, that would be a good No, I think uh but again, I want to push the fact that the show keeps going because of our Patreon. Yes. And so, uh you know, we we brought it up many times. Most podcasts fail. Um but the Patreon crew is what keeps us going. And so if you have listened, we’ve we’re at 140 episodes, 30 episodes, something like that. Yeah. So that’s over 140 50 hours of content. Uh if you have listened to a bunch of them, support us.
