MarkZ Weekend Coffee (Uncut) 03/15/2025

Cheers, everybody. Hello, hello to Carlos and Kathy. Thank you for jumping on board as a monthly supporter.

Hello, ASJCreatives, LGLady540, Shadow. Hello, Linda Hearn. Hello, HalfPint and Titan.

I see I just fishing, popping in on the Twitch side, which we reactivated for the week. And I’m considering because of closed captioning, changing up the format a little bit and doing one on Trolling News this coming week as well, just like a shortened version, and then bounce over to just Rumble later, just for you guys to get just those that just want IQD or RV related or whatever you guys want to call it. Hello, JB April.

Jeff, good to see you in the house. Hello, J Emanuel, Ms. Purser. Preacher, it’s good to see you in the house.

Hey, Carolyn, wrong color. But it’s a neat shirt that a friend gave me, the Hoover Dam. Trying to get the color worked out.

I do have some contacts that are working a half a day today, but not tomorrow, at least not scheduled, but on call, wealth management folks, AK, some of you guys call them redemption folks, they’re trained for redemption. So we continue to see them keeping things up to updated and ready. Other than that, it’s been pretty quiet overnight on the bond side and the RV side.

We’ll talk a little more about it when it’s time, plenty of action going on in Iraq to keep us busy when it’s time after Matt and Luke is finished this morning. After we have our fun time with the guys, or I think it’s a fun time, just waiting for him to pop into the back office. Of course, I should probably make certain, I should probably make certain I sent him the link.

Good. I did. Proud of myself.

It’s discombobulated as I was yesterday and today. Although today’s a great day. All right, we’re going to get into it all.

Worry not. Hmm. Hmm.

Hello, Whip and Captain Beggy. Hello, Tennessee Annie said we’re getting massive thunderstorms and winds, so buffering is huge. My time here, rumble or next to impossible.

Wishing you luck to get through it. If not, it’ll be recorded when it calms down. So what do you guys want to talk about today? Since we don’t have Matt and Lucas yet.

1. Oh my goodness. He came back.

I deleted the app. No, it’s okay. SG.

While I don’t want to give them regular dollars at Twitch until they clean up the anti-semitic, just the hate speech, anti-semitic and anti-conservative speech that is perfectly acceptable over there. I will still use them to reach you guys on it. You know, when we, when we, when other platforms are down, just not consistently try to beat them in the pocket, right? We have the illustrious notorious big Matt.

Hey, good morning, Mark. How’s it going? Good. How about yourself? You getting out of practice? I mean, last Saturday I was gone Friday.

Holy crap. Went to the complete utter poopers. The crapper.

Oh, well, that’s all right. But, uh, yeah, that’s good. I, everybody out there and TV land or what do we call it? Rumble land.

Yeah. Rumble. Yeah.

The rumble sphere. Yeah. The rumble sphere.

Yep. And Lucas, he’ll be popping in in a second, but, uh, yeah, it’s, uh, it’s like a nice Saturday and Saturdays are always nice, you know? Oh, I enjoy Saturdays. I would do Saturdays just as a CBD only one and not even talk news just for fun, cause I enjoy it so much.

I look forward to Saturday morning podcasts. Yeah, yeah, for sure. It’s great.

You know, the week should be, it should be two days of work and then a weekend. And then I don’t know why they should have week would have, should have been four days, you know? So do we, every two days you get two days off, it would have been perfect. Yeah.

Right. Maybe we can start doing like, you know, another night during the week for a long CBD one, kind of like a whiskey and wisdom, but we’ll call it, I don’t know. What would you call it? Gummies and gumption.

Gummy. I don’t even know. Like, um, I don’t know.

Escape from jail with Matt. I don’t know. No.

For a whiskey and wisdom. Yeah, no, I’m just getting around. You want to tell him how to get in there and do all that part before we get a Lucas? Yeah.

Yeah, for sure. Let’s go. You guys.

So, um, to get into the site, you go to the CBD gurus.com and then you hit the wholesale button on top and then you’ll go to a Mark C wholesale. And then when you get there, if there’s a code word you have to put in most of the time, it’s not, if you’ve already been there, you just put in lowercase K R a M CBD, and then you’re in the specials.

And, uh, God, I don’t, let me see if we got any shirts left on the Trump deal.

We got on the small ones. You guys, we had, uh, I don’t know. It looks like there’s a couple left in there.

So I think there’s about five left. So if you’re smaller and you want a Trump shirt that just grab one and go to town, you know, but, uh, that’s all the specials mark. And I got to liven it up.

Give me some coffee. Right. Woo.

We’ll just let Lucas take the helm for a minute. That’ll liven it up. Yeah.

He’s oh boy. He sounded like he was half in the bag when I talked to him a minute ago. Yeah.

I have plenty of coffee in me, but, uh, trying to deal with, uh, three sick children is not, uh, no, what do they have? Uh, don’t know, uh, fully, uh, but it’s mostly, it’s not, uh, it’s not the fun stuff. I’ll tell you that. Is it one of the new engineered bugs from China? You know, the new version? I don’t know.

I don’t know. It’s just, uh, it’s too early in the process to tell, you know, when they wake up at 2 AM, I’m not trying to identify things. I’m just trying to, I’m trying to survive.

Um, but yeah, yeah, no, things are, uh, uh, kind of doing well on several fronts. I one drank a lot of coffee. That’s all I’m concerned about this morning.

That’s the important part. Coffee. And I always, uh, been taking every morning with the coffee, the, uh, cordyceps and, uh, you know, I, I don’t feel like I noticed a massive change right away, but, uh, it’s been after the first week is when it really hit.

Yeah. History just cordyceps. The, I mean, when I say history, there’s really cool science, but the just confirms the history because they’ve been used for like three, what, over 3000 years in Chinese medicine.

No, they have. And you know, like, kind of like we’ve talked before, like I’ve always been really, really big on the Rishi. Um, Rishi is kind of the one that I did the most study on.

And like, I love Rishi and the cordyceps has just been, I mean, yeah, I’ve been taking it, but I haven’t been taking it like consistently on it, like if I’m being honest, um, but until recently been taking it like consistently and like, gosh, I’m really, really liking this stuff a lot. Yeah. I I’m, I’m a big fan of cordyceps.

Um, and just mushrooms in general, or when you do the science is just well beyond awesome. Um, all right. I don’t know if anybody’s got any questions, but I, I don’t have to hold back as much now that we’re off YouTube for the week from our strike.

So, you know, we can kind of rip and have more fun than normal. Nice. You say anything you want here, Mark? Yeah, pretty much.

Can I talk about Lucas more? Yeah, you can this morning because you know, he only can afford so much of his attention to pay to you because he’s exhausted and he’s got to take care of sick kids. That’s horrible, man. It’s pretty bad.

Are you going to recover today or is it all weekend deal? I wish I knew that. I wish I knew. I’m just, you know, hoping for the best, preparing for the worst.

Oh, that’s too bad. Sorry to hear really is load them up on immunity. Yeah.

Do you have any? Oh, I have. Okay. Good deal.

So that usually, uh, you know, helps pretty significantly, but you know, it’s, it’s them, you know, it’s, uh, it’s also what they eat, what they drink, how much, you know, fluid are they drinking and try to monitor that, you know, even, even when the kids are sick, I mean, Matt, you’re like, Hey, no sugar, do not eat sugar. It is, you know, it’s just toxins in your body and yet they’re like, they, you know, they want to sneak sugar. You know, they want to, and I’m like, guys, and you wonder why you’re not getting better.

They’re like, and they, they think that I use that as an excuse to not have them eat sugar. Um, not that I’m trying to help them, but I’m trying to make their lives more miserable by not allowing them sugar. Well, obviously, obviously I’m trying, you know, I’m trying to, uh, detriment their lives so much, but, uh, by being worried about their health.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know? So, um, yeah, just trying to deal with that. But, uh, you know, one thing, uh, the, uh, you know, one thing that they do allow a lot of Mark is like turkey tail, uh, for even like kids, like obviously like, um, uh, I’m taught, I’m saying this because, um, you know, talking to our pediatrician and stuff like that, you know, stuff like some of the functional mushrooms, like a lot, surprisingly enough, a lot of even the mainstream doctors are on board with functional mushrooms.

Finally. No, a number of them are. The science is overwhelming.

I mean, I’ll tell you what today’s world, because they, they, they refuse to embrace it, it’s kind of matters. Well, and I’ll tell you what, Mark, I really true. This is my own opinion.

I think that when the whole thing went with Fauci went down, a lot of the mainstream doctors lost a lot of faith in our, in, uh, the mainstream medical. A lot, a lot. And that’s a sad thing because, well, a good thing and a sad thing.

It’s sad that they pushed us to that point and we couldn’t trust them. Well, it’s kind of sad that when we do need them and they are, uh, have our best interests, we’re still not going to trust them. They did a lot.

They did. They did decades of damage to themselves during that period. They did, but I think what it also shows on a plus side is that there needs to be a whole, uh, change of the entire medical industry if we want to keep warm.

Um, so I think at least there’s that recognition. Um, yeah, no, there is. Um, here’s a oh five sporty asthmatic question, but I, I did a little like web searching to be ready for you, Matt.

I said, Matt, what mushroom mushrooms are best for prostate cancer therapy. So I did something easy. I just ran with, uh, best mushrooms for prostate mushrooms that are good for prostate health include my talkie.

Cause it improves urinary flow. Rishi counteracts prostate enlargement and reduces the capacity of the five, a reductase enzyme responsible for hormonal changes. And I want to say that also there are a lot of studies, uh, especially out of Japan with Rishi for prostate cancer.

Stocky concentrations of ego. Theonine oyster mushrooms, high concentrate. Okay.

They talk about some of the different ones, but the two they specifically named, um, uh, they named three white button may slow the progression of prostate cancer, according to a study in mice. Meese. Uh, but Rishi is the one I’ve seen the most studies on.

Yeah, pretty much everything you want to, you’re wondering about, you can always just, uh, hit the old, uh, search engine there and it’ll just start reading a little bit different opinions there. You’ll probably come to a consensus on what works. Let’s see.

What was I going to say there? Oh, there was something about Parkinson’s. What do you guys, uh, what do you suggest for Parkinson’s Lucas? There, I seen a question. It’s not that I suggest anything, but I think one thing that’s really cool is you just type in Parkinson’s and THC.

And the things that you will get back, like medical studies, samples, individuals, videos, videos, especially if you do that on YouTube, guys, it will blow your mind. If you punch that in on a YouTube, just put Parkinson’s and THC or Parkinson’s and CBD, uh, whatever suits you and you will be blown away by the videos from individuals and many of them with doctors in there as well, explaining the functions, the hows, the whys. Yeah.

Don’t trust us. You can actually trust some doctors and scientists too. Actually, a lot of them.

A lot of them had apples. Then that’s a thing. Mark is like a few bad apples, mate.

They’re like, oh, well, I don’t trust any dashes. Like, well, no guys, there’s actually a substantial amount of doctors out there that are extremely intelligent that are not sucked into, uh, you know, the nonsense of what these other guys are putting out. So, uh, and, and honestly, Mark, I bet you probably 70 or 80% of the doctors are legitimate, good, really good people that really want to help you get better.

Yeah. It’s problem is it doesn’t only takes a handful of ones that put profit and bad science ahead of everything for their personal pockets and they ruin it for everybody else that actually care. I know.

And they, and their friend, they’re just as frustrated as we are. Um, let’s see, being asked, uh, regular mushrooms, Raytheon, if that’s what you’re asking, no, they do not show up on your drug test because they’re not drugs. Uh, that’s what you’re asking about on the mushroom, the Rishi’s and the cordyceps and all those, the lions vein, turkey tails, that’s not something you have to worry about.

Uh, got more questions for you. What would you recommend for Parkinson’s, for weight loss, old man’s skin, easy bruising and cuts? Whoa. That’s a lot.

All in one. Is it the same as old lady skin still? Yeah. One’s more masculine than the other.

I think it’s like, is that the crepe paper deal where yeah, that’s, uh, usually a loss of collagen, but I don’t know if we’ve got anything specifically for that in the lineup. No, I would definitely try to get yourself just a good source of collagen. And, um, you know, that’s, uh, but we’re talking about that for the cuts and the easy brewing, bruising, et cetera, for the Parkinson’s, I don’t know how you feel about THC, but the.

Science and the evidence and the studies are overwhelming. If you just do them, do a search, hand them off to your doctor and Delta nine, not Delta eight. Like most of the, most of the studies have all been done with Delta nine.

And those are the ones we were just referencing. They are, it’s crazy. The number of them, um, weight loss.

Oh, eat right. You guys have apple cider vinegar and weight loss support. Um, that I guess, uh, open to suggestions, you know, and this stuff and this stuff helps, but guys, nothing is going to take away the, uh, you know, from you guys.

You know, drinking enough water and eating, you know, healthy, like not eating sugar starches, um, you know, just kind of staying away. And I mean, honestly, the biggest thing with a weight loss is calorie deficit. You got to take in less calories than you’re putting out.

That’s literally 99% of it. Yeah. You guys, when you hear this stuff from Lucas, this is what I hear from him when I talk to him a lot.

He’s always telling me to get in shape and stuff, and he’s pretty good at it. But it, uh, he goaded me into betting him and I lost. Uh-huh.

Yeah. He, you were manipulated. No, no, I didn’t even make the bet.

Matt’s like, you gotta hold me accountable. And so I would every day. And then he just kept getting like Lucas.

I’m so busy. I’m like, I don’t care if you’re busy or not. No, I hear it out and, uh, and, uh, you know, showed him a little tough love and, uh, it did, uh, it did not work.

Well, I was, I wasn’t walking the best at the time. I had the nerve damage. If you remember, Lucas, I was on crutches for nerve damage.

Doesn’t mean that you can put more calories in your mouth than what you’re expending. If you’re nerve damaged and you can’t walk as well, you can’t eat as much. Uh, I know I had that little portable fridge by the chair, you know, I’d watch TV so I didn’t have to get up.

It, it, it did harm to me. Yeah. No, I hear you.

All right. I should’ve, I should’ve talked to your wife and been like, Hey, move all the food out into the garage. So if he wants it, he’s got to get up and go all the way out there.

And if he doesn’t, then he’s just not going to eat. No, is it worth it or not? He’d probably just take his sleeping bag and go out there. I want you to agree right now.

Will you go double or nothing with me, please? No, no, I, I, because I don’t, I don’t want to take all your money. I’m going to need to break out my checks, mix it. My, I mean, my caramel popcorn and, uh, enjoy this show for a minute.

I know. No kidding. Right.

Well, he’s, he really is tough on you, you know, just, uh, but no, it’s good because it’s good, I mean, he’s, when he talks like this, he’s like this all the time, you know, the funny part is I really am. Yeah, but no, it’s good for you for me anyway, because I need that. All right.

Question. My mom’s 80 in excellent health. She does have high blood pressure.

It ran all the tests recently for traditional integrative metal test. Great on meds, but still high blood pressure, uh, mushrooms, anything you can think of. I, not a product you guys carry, but I immediately thought cardio for life, but, uh, open to ideas here, guys.

You know, uh, yeah, I, I was just going to mention something else, but you got anything, Lucas? I’m actually trying to think I had a, I have a really good friend who, uh, had massive or really, really high blood pressure and he was taking something. He’s also been trying to exercise seven days a week, you know, uh, changed up his diet, but there was something he took that, you know, along with that. Um, cause it’s not just one thing.

It’s a, it’s a multifaceted problem that you have to, um, kind of hit all at once, but I’ll think about it. Give me a minute to think about it. I can’t remember exactly what he was taking or eating one of the two.

Um, yeah. Uh, magnesium is good for it. Chocolate, dark chocolate’s good for it.

I’m trying to think all the things that are good for blood pressure. And a good, clean diet, no stress. Uh, all right.

I’m going to keep going. But Barb wants to know anything for Achilles tendonitis or plantar fasciitis pain. Hey, for me, a D eight at night before I go to sleep.

So I’ll wake up the next morning and that pain is, uh, greatly reduced and it’s inflammation. So anything that reduces inflammation over time should be positive. Guys, anytime we suggest something, please talk to your doctor if you’d like to, and, uh, get their take on it.

We’re not trying to change them. Not time to cure anything. We’re just talking about what works and some of the studies we’ve read, et cetera.

Most in 2000 works on those feet. Really good guys. No, I’ve had a lot of people that rub down their sore feet in the evenings with lotion 2000.

Then they’ll do some, uh, D eights or D nines for sleep and feel like new people the next day. It helps when you break that cycle of pain, at least it does for me. A couple of nights a week too.

I get that little wash tub and I take a bath bomb and I split it into about three pieces and I put a piece in there and then I just soak my feet in there. Why I sit and watch, uh, I don’t know, TV or just read a book, you know? So I rest my feet in there for about an hour and a half and then I go to sleep. So I usually fall asleep with my feet in that deal, that little tub.

So it does, it’s really good for your feet. You know, all your nerve endings go to the bottom of your feet. You know, I think in your whole body, don’t they? You guys, that’s what I’ve heard anyway.

That’s what my mom used to brag about. But anyway, no big deal, but the feet take care of your feet. Rub that lotion on there.

Soak it in the bath bombs. I don’t know. I mean, on there too, for the fungus on the toes, for sure.

No, it just rubbed it. That, uh, lotion 2000 all over the place. I mean, I, I rubbed it on my buddy’s toes when he couldn’t bend down with the fungus.

So I told that story about five times. I’m still recovering from that one. I haven’t recovered from that.

I got to get pictures of that. I got to get therapy, action shots while I’m doing it. Yeah, no, no.

Cause then, then I’ll never get over it. Yeah. I ain’t going to do it for very many people.

That’s for sure. But he’s a good friend. So yeah, I got, anyway, I like this one over here.

When I was, when I started using Turkey tail, the five matrix and ACV, the apple cider vinegar gummies within a couple of months, I started noticing that I wasn’t having any episodes. We’re talking about, uh, reflux. Now, after a couple of years, I have no acid reflux and that awesome.

Cause I see people asking for help on what to do for acid reflux. Uh, and I tell you, we got a specialist in here on that front with Lucas. I mean, I struggled with it for years.

I mean, real bad, real bad. I mean, it was to the point where I couldn’t like, I mean, Mark, I don’t know if I ever told you this weird driving and it was a long drive, 16 hours drive, and we were like six hours into it. And it was so bad at nighttime.

Um, like I had to pull over and, uh, was just vomiting. Uh, it w it was that bad. I mean, it was horrible.

And, uh, like I experienced like every day and, uh, the, yeah, the miracle gold is why, you know, I, I made that was specifically for me. It had nothing. I was, there was zero plan to ever put that all out on the market.

I kind of like how that one came to be though, because that, you know, to me makes it more genuine. Well, yeah, I mean, it was kind of, uh, Matt asked, actually asked me, you know, you know, I kind of told him that I was starting to feel a lot better. And I, you know, within like a week, I was like, I haven’t had any, any acid reflux and he was like, are you serious? What did you do? And so I was like, well, you know, I was, you know, I started taking, you know, the, uh, the black seed, the pure black seed, and then, you know, for a little bit of the antimicrobial, I was trying to get a little bit of CBG.

So I was slowly adding it in, um, until, and I actually went over, you know, pretty much the 3000 milligrams, uh, you know, concentration and found that that actually, uh, I stopped seeing, uh, really any benefits. So I started, you know, tracing it back and granted guys, this was over the course of, I don’t know what Matt, six months of me kind of researching what it worked for me. And, and he was like, Hey, can I try some? So I gave it to him and, you know, I was like, do you have any stomach issues? He’s like, no, not really.

And so he tried it and he was like, Lucas, after like two days, my swell, literally what he said to me was my swelling and my feet completely went down and I didn’t have any swelling in my face anymore, my face and my feet. And I’m like, what? I was like, that doesn’t make any sense at all. He was like, no, I’m serious.

He was like the swelling in my feet, my legs and my face. And I’m like, okay. It’s true.

But I mean, I just, I don’t want people to get a picture out there. Like I’m like balloon boy. No, it’s not about, it’s not about a ton of swelling, but you know, like you can feel it, right? Like people can look at you and not, not see the difference.

Um, but you can feel the difference, right? It’s kind of like working out, you know, like you can feel the difference when you work out. It doesn’t mean people recognize the difference, but like, you know, we, we are in tune to our bodies. We know how we feel.

We know like all of this. So, you know, when, when even the subtle changes happen, you know, we recognize them almost immediately. Yeah.

And here’s the thing on the swelling on the feet, what’ll happen is if I’m up walking around a lot, you know, at the end of the day, it might be just a little bit, you know, it’s not a lot and, and then, uh, but now if I take the miracle gold, then at bedtime, then I wake up in the morning and it’s kind of like my feet. When you, you take them out of the water, you know, you get those, like it’s wrinkly kind of on the bottom or something, but it seems like it takes the swelling down and you really notice it. So that’s, that’s the truth.

That’s that, you know, and I don’t take it all the time at night, but if I feel more little puffy in the feet, more than normal, I do, hell yeah. I know when I started doing a intermittent fasting and the carnivore diet, my endema, my swelling went way down and still get a little, if I’m on my feet or sitting up just because of my muscle disease, I will still get some, but nothing like I used to. I used to be like downright elephant Titus before I figured out I need to clean the sugars and starches and everything else out of my diet.

Isn’t it crazy how, how much, uh, it makes a difference, Mark, when you do that. I mean, I, I, and I feel amazing, but, uh, how bad were your sugar cravings? Like within the first week, because mine was almost out of control. Like it was on, I was like, I don’t think I’ve ever been addicted to something that pulls me as far as sugar has.

Yeah. I mean, it lights up the same part of your brain as cocaine. Uh, sugar.

I mean, it’s literally, it’s, it’s bad juju, but it is oh, so good tasting. You know, it’s definitely not, not something we should be partaking, uh, except for in very limited amounts. And even then you could argue you shouldn’t have it at all.

Okay. I don’t drink beer that much anymore, you know, not at all. I mean, beer consumption went down about 99%.

And, uh, I’m less puffy there too. What makes the beer make you more puffy? The grains, the sugar, everything. Okay.

That makes sense. Did read, uh, read so many interesting articles. And I shared one of them one time with you guys about pasta.

If you make the pasta like the day before refrigerated, um, then it, uh, it’s glycemic index or hit on your index drops like in 50% pasta does the same thing. I mean, excuse me, toast bread does the same thing. Take that bread, keep it in the fridge or the freezer and toast it straight from frozen.

It like cuts it in half. The, uh, sugar spikes and stuff. I had no idea.

I don’t know how that works. I mean, that’s like magic. It’s the same, same thing with rice.

So like I’ll make rice, um, like in rice in our, uh, whatever, what is that? Like, uh, what’s, what’s that pot instapot. So I’ll make rice in the instapot and then I’ll put it directly into a container and put it in the fridge and, uh, then you eat it, you know, you can warm it up the next day, whatever. But I mean, it’s even more so than half markets and nuts.

It is nuts. What it does. I can feel the difference.

You want still get the bread, still get the pasta, still get the rice, but you’re not beating your body up half as bad. It’s awesome. So you took, you took a spaghetti dinner with the, uh, French bread and all that.

And you just, instead of eating it that night, you put it in the fridge and ate the next day, you’d probably not get half the calories. Is that what you said? Okay. So when you heat it up, when you heat it up, all right, so what you’re doing is you’re changing the, let me do it on a, like a low level for you, Matt, uh, you’re changing up the molecular structure of the, of the sugar molecules.

Okay. So as you’re heating them up, you’re at, you’re actually altering them, right? And then what happens is then you refrigerate it. Okay.

And that almost solidifies that change in the molecular structure. So that when you eat it, it’s actually what it does is it’s easier for your body to digest. And then, so when it digests it, instead of turning it into, you know, sugars in the body, only, you know, like 60 or 70%, um, is now, uh, actually utilized as pure fuel as instead of just going straight to sugar in the bloodstream.

So, you know, uh, you know, your liver, uh, doesn’t, uh, just flood your bloodstream with sugar anymore. Um, so yeah, so you want to heat it up, cook it like normal. And then don’t eat it because it hasn’t changed until it’s cool down.

So it’s the whole process of heating up the molecular structure and then cooling it back down. And as soon as you’ve went through that whole process, then you can eat it. So if you took a, maybe this is off the subject, but you had one of these cold water tubs and I went and laid in that thing every morning for like 15 minutes.

That would make me lose weight. Like, well, yeah, but that’s a whole different, that’s a whole different thing. That, that does it because of how your body reacts to, you know, kind of like the flight stimulus of, um, you’re going to die because you’re in a cold environment.

Um, and because all the calories that suddenly your body will suddenly burn to, uh, up your, uh, internal heat for survival when you do that. So I mean, you burn a ton of calories, heating yourself back up because you’re like in that, in that situation, your mitochondria is just constantly producing ATP at like a crazy rate. So as it, as it creates ATP, it’s just burning calories in your body, your warm, go ahead, Matt.

Think about this, the Eskimos, right. All they did was eat whale blubber, you know, when they were Eskimos and it sat outside all the time. Then they’d probably bring it in and heat it up.

And then they’d, you know, plus they’re out in the cold all the time. You’d really, they weren’t fattening or anything. The Eskimos, but they probably ate enough whale blubber to make an average person a tub of beans.

You know, the thing is that there’s always that misconception that eating fat creates fat, which is not true. Um, actually quite the opposite. Um, eating fat does not make you fat or even put fat on.

So you will find that, uh, for instance, let me give you a little story here. Let’s say polar bears. So polar bears, when they’re starving, they will not eat meat.

So if they kill a seal and they’re, you know, really hungry, what they’ll do is, is that they’ll eat all the fat. To just give energy. And it just goes toward pure energy in the body.

Like your liver creates cholesterol just to feed the body. And the fat is that because protein takes your body a long time and actually it takes more, you know, a lot of energy to digest protein. So like you’ll see a polar bear that’ll kill two or three seals and it’ll leave the, the meat and the carcass and everything, because it doesn’t have enough energy and it’s crazy that it even knows this, um, but it doesn’t have enough energy to process, uh, the meat and the rest of the carcass.

And then after a while, once it’s gained enough energy, then it’ll start slowly eating the meat of the, of the next seals that they start killing. Oh, that’s, this is great to learn this stuff. Awesome.

No, it’s so much cool stuff. And I’m sitting here trying to pull up. Uh, uh, just did a quick search for them.

Um, benefits, cooling pasta, bread and rice after cooking, cooling pasta, bread and rice after cooking can have the following benefits. Increase resistance to starch in potatoes. Oh, wow.

I might not have to give up potatoes, guys, potatoes, rice, and pasta. Uh, reduces the carbohydrate, carbohydrate absorption when reheated and I might add on a smaller blood glucose peak after cooling and reheating. I mean, it’s, it’s really cool.

I mean, really cool. Farmer yesterday in the potatoes, the potato consumption is down so much that sometimes in the field, he’s telling me at the end of the season, they just grind up all the potatoes, like they do pumpkins, you know, and, uh, because nobody wants them anymore. The potatoes, now that I know, I don’t have to be like as concerned as long as I prepare them properly, might get a little more flavor back in the diet.

I’m excited. Well, I’m going crazy on the potatoes now. So we just freeze them and then we can eat them.

That’s right. Well, no, you just go ahead and make them or whatever, and then refrigerate them overnight. And then whenever you heat them, they, uh, they don’t have the same effect.

Oh, good. Which is cool. Oh, maybe I have to refrigerate the potato before I cook it the first time.

Yeah, I’m going to play with this. All right. We need to get back to it and answer some questions.

My dog was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. I know dogs cannot have THC. No, they can.

They’re just more sensitive. Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. Um, you guys of course have your pet treats with the mushrooms in them and the CBD and the CBD CBD has a lot of proven benefits for, yeah, a lot of science out there you can look up to share with your veterinarian.

Yeah. People wondered a lot of times about how much CBD and teeth are not THC, but, uh, CBD for the pounds per the pet. So I always tell them if you got a 50 pound pet, maybe 25 for maintenance.

But if they got something wrong, just get them up to their weight and, uh, milligrams of CBD. Is that about right? Locust. That’s what I tell people.

Yeah, it’s a, you know, and, and different types of dogs have different sensitivities to it. Um, you know, the crazy part is you can give some dogs a small amount of THC or CBD, sorry, um, CBD and, uh, they’ll, they’ll take to it like crazy, like see massive benefits. Um, so you just kind of have to work with your vet and kind of start low, always start low and kind of work your way up, um, uh, to kind of see where that benefit is.

Cause you’ll reach a point where giving them more won’t have any benefit whatsoever. So it’s kinda, you got, you just gotta find that pinnacle, that bell shaped curve to kind of figure out, uh, your dog. And it’s no different than humans, right? Like we, we, we always recommend starting off low, kind of working your way up and then seeing where, uh, you know, you lose that benefit, um, and kind of stay in that range.

Right. Um, uh, I just still look funny as Matt can become, uh, uh, Kramer’s offering to be your friend, Matt, because, uh, Kramer loves a good foot massage. That ain’t happening.

If Kramer, Kramer loves a good foot massage, Kramer needs a foot massage and you need a friend, you know, if it’s a gal do it, but otherwise I’m not well, you have a problem. What problem do you have with Kramer? I don’t know. With them.

It’s just, it’s just, if he’s a guy, I don’t even know if Kramer’s a guy. You know, Kramer’s a guy. Kramer might be a girl.

And my Christmas. I got, listen, like I said, I rubbed the miracle gold on my buddy’s fungus toes cause he couldn’t bend down to do it. He was in bad shape.

You know, he was sitting in a, you know, a lounge chair, but I ain’t going to do it for a regular guy. I know I’d probably do it for Mark for sure, but I don’t know, Lucas, I might not going to do it for you. And, uh, I’d do it for Cooper though.

I’d rubber those with some lotion for sure. You know, cause she’s any gal automatically lotioned. I’m telling you when we get to the humanitarian resort, that’s going to be my project every day.

Uh, I’ll just, just line up in the chairs, gals, and I’ll rub those feet with 2000 motion. And then, uh, it’ll be hard to hear first. Yep.

I will too. No problem. This is as long as they’re washed first, you know, I ain’t going to, if they’re dirty running around at the baseball field or the rodeo spot, and then come on over, you gotta wash them up first.

So soak them in some CBD tubs. Hey, we don’t want to forget how to get in the sink. The CBD gurus.com go to Marcy wholesale, and then hit the mark button and then put in lowercase K R a M CBD.

If, uh, you’ve never been in there before. And then if you have any questions, you’re new, be sure you call Wendy or she don’t answer the name. You can take over.

And then, uh, but they’ll answer questions. If you want to text a question over, we’ll answer it. But yeah, we, uh, we got everybody on it now for sure.

So uh, the mismatch again, we need sugar-free gummies for us on diets that require no sugar. It just occurred to me. I mean, you guys are super, super, super, super low in sugars, but there are still some, uh, the sugary sprinkle on them to keep them from sticking together.

No reason you can’t refrigerate those gummies. Now that I’ve learned that trick, make it even better. Oh yeah, for sure.

For sure. Something when you get settled might be worth, uh, figuring out as a sugar-free gummy, just because I do think there will be a big demand for it. Not that I mean, partially in our community, partially, you know, for other people that carry them since Lucas is a manufacturer, not that he wants anything else on his plate.

Lucas. Matt. Yeah.

I I’ve just, yeah. My, my plate is so empty. So I could put so much on it.

I’m just, I just don’t do anything all day. Yeah, I know. I get it.

Um, PL Perry, I use miracle gold from arthritis on my fingers and drop her every day under my tongue. Love it. It’s a lot of people have said that it’s great.

You know, you know, it’s been a hit is the miracle gold with THC. It’s gotten way bigger than I ever thought it was going to get. And that’s right.

Lucas. Cause I didn’t, I can see it. Yeah, we never, we never dreamt that people one would, uh, would take to it as well, because obviously, you know, the taste is kind of pungent initially, but what even more so has evolved and has surprised us is the vast amount of uses for it, you know, especially when people started using it topically for all these different things.

I’m like, what, I mean, it makes sense with the, you know, with the characteristics of the, of the oil and what’s in it, but it just, just never would have dreamt people would have used it in all these different, you know, different cases and that’s what to me makes it really cool seeing what people can report and say, Hey, this is what’s worked really good for me. And it does. It’s like, all right, this is cool.

This is awesome. So it gives you an eye. That’s why I love doing these Saturday mornings.

Everybody gets to talk about what’s worked for them. Yep. And there’ll be some new things coming in the future for sure.

There always is. And, uh, yeah, there really is. So it’s, uh, Hey, thanks for having us on mark and, uh, I’ll be in the chat.

If anybody’s got any questions, I’ll try and pick them out from you here for sure. All right. Yeah.

It’s a little bit tough cause we’re mostly in rumble. Uh, so you’ve either got to be in Twitch or rumble with YouTube down right now. Yep.

Yeah. Well, I’m in a rumble right now, so thanks for posting all the questions there. Great job too.

Thanks. How are you doing? Uh, buddy, that, that brand new tropic, it really good stuff. I have so many people that swear by it for an improved mood because the, what is it, the HTP or what, what, what’s that called Lucas five HTP five HTP.

And it really does really like people. If you’re suffering from anxiety, things like that, panic, uh, can’t suggest something like that enough. It’s kind of like a natural, gentle Xanax for when you’re, when your brain’s all just ramped up and worried and stuff like that, but then we have to say long-term long-term for stuff like that.

Mark, you know, as we’ve seen lions, main large amounts of lions, main has shown, you know, unbelievable, uh, studies are unreal, crazy. Yeah. It shows that, uh, I forget what the percentage was, but far more effective just taking lines main supplement.

And I forget what they said. Was it 2000 milligrams a day? I think it was, I think it was actually like, yeah, two to three. I think, I think, uh, there was even, I think the study they did was actually like three, three and a half grams.

So 3,500 milligrams. So a lot of lions main, but, uh, you know, it was more effective than all the, uh, over the night, not over the counter blew all the, uh, pharmacy ones, just, I mean, just blew them away in effectiveness. It was really cool study.

Was that, was that another Japanese study? Um, yeah. Yeah. It was because why would the Americans want to study like that? Right.

Sadly, that would, I mean, the Japanese are trying to figure out how not to send you, put you on drugs and the U S are figuring how not to put you on, on like good quality food. Yeah, exactly. So, well, Hey Mark, thanks for having us on.

Have a great weekend. And, uh, yeah. And I’ll see you and I’ll see you guys again later this week.

Maybe I can drag you into whiskey, uh, whiskey and wisdom or, uh, some other time, if not, I’ll see you Friday. All right. Sounds good.

We’ll figure it out. Yeah. Thanks Matt.

Take care, Mark. Yeah, you’re welcome. Have a good weekend, everybody.

I’ll be in the chat here. Take care. All right.

Let’s get to, uh, some news. I do have some, uh, I’m gonna call them wealth management slash redemption folks working a part day to day. Uh, they say they are just staying in a readiness state and that’s why they are working some this weekend.

Uh, I did want to say Merry Christmas, uh, for folks in the Julian calendar, today’s the day. Uh, doesn’t mean that that’s the day we’re going to get an RV or anything. I just thought it was unique.

We pay attention to that. Um, yeah, we’ve got a fair amount out of Iraq proper. Let me turn that news time banner off just so it’s not distracting me.

Uh, will the coordination framework collapse in the face of potential Satter at Sudanese Alliance? What does this mean? This is actually a very good thing for us guys here. What we have is two formerly two blocks. It would not work together, uh, before that are now very much working together to upset things.

Now, what are they working towards? We’ve got a Sudanese to do your here. Uh, of course, prime ministry minister. She is so not Sudan.

He came to power under that same framework that was dominated by Maliki. So what we have are, um, Sudanese and Sater working together to make the political system in Iraq work much better, removing the influence of Iran and Maliki. This one’s very interesting to read.

This is just some of the things that we’ve seen pushing forward, uh, which really does bring much more stability and cooperation in government. That’s why we’re suddenly seeing projects get things that they’ve been talking about for 20 years happening. Talked about the, oh, I just thought this was a great.

Uh, with, um, just to how important, uh, Iraq is right now. You’ve got, uh, vice president, uh, JD Vance, he’s talking about the invasion of Iraq and he wants to protect a minority Christian minority, well, minorities in Syria, but specifically in this case, Christians, he points to one of the greatest regrets. Uh, of course not his, he wasn’t in charge, but what the, the protection that the U S did not get one of the largest Christian populations in the Middle East when Iraq was overthrown.

And we should have been there. I love this. Our invasion of Iraq led to destruction of the world’s greatest.

Historical weight, uh, to one of one of the world’s greatest historical Christian communities. We don’t want to allow a Christian group to be destroyed. Again, we talked to our allies and do unspoken things, protect minorities in Syria, like Christians and Drew as.

Uh, Washington will not send troops to Syria, but there is much that can be done diplomatically and economically to protect minorities. Vance said, uh, to me, this one is so important. We actually have an administration that cares about Christians, uh, which is something we have not seen in the world.

It’s a, it’s open season on Christianity throughout the world, especially in Europe, Canada. Uh, we saw that during the lockdowns, et cetera, uh, where’d they go after? They went after the churches, the Christian churches that went after people that believed in God. Well, uh, believed in the love new Testament.

Let’s throw it in there. Although they went pretty hard after Judaism too. Uh, so, so for me, I just, uh, this is a big one because it’s both Iraq, uh, the region and Christians just want to touch on that one.

Before I forget, I know it’s a total side thing. Too many people are trying to put words in God’s mouth. Now, have you noticed that? Is it only me? That’s noticed that.

Uh, trying to say, well, God told me to do this. God, do you really sit in prayer? Reflect on that one. Put it on the shelf.

CP pulls it back on the shelf and puts it in your face. There are a lot of people that are, yeah. All right.

Anyways, probably don’t need to get on that one right now. Iraqi forces killed deputy Khalif, one of the world’s most dangerous terrorists. Uh, of course, uh, my, I am told with some intelligence from us sources, the Iraqis, uh, did this.

They took out the deputy Khalif, an enormous blow to ISIS. Uh, an enormous blow. Uh, deputy Khalifa, uh, uh, just what his nickname was.

I, it’s one of the most dangerous terrorists in Iraq in the world. This is a big win also helps bring stability and especially in the Northern region of Iraq. Good for Iraq.

Uh, this one is one I want your take on because it screams. Uh, no Sarah, just Sarah to me, ministry of the interior, the electronic visa is mandatory for all expatriates and is granted within six hours. In other words, they are making a mandatory for expats and they’re granting it within six hours.

To me, this is them preparing their citizens for a return. For no Sarah, just Sarah. I mean, this one, I got downright excited when I was reading this one.

I’m just curious if anybody else got that same take. Yeah. Tommy took, yes.

Do you see the head of the Islamic state? Got his virgins, uh, that he requested. He’s no longer here. I saw that.

I think he’s going to be horribly, horribly, horribly disappointed when he gets there and there’s not, uh, those 72, uh, virgins waiting on them. Uh, glad somebody else notices that one too. Nee family, happy birthday.

I’m going to keep running. We’ll do birthdays soon. Uh, that one to me was just a really big one because it did.

Uh, I ran issues, a new 200,000 Tomans inflation is running quickly. Of course, we’ve already seen protests, uh, last weekend, large scale, widespread protests, and I ran over the collapse of the Iranian currency. Uh, many there, many calling for, uh, an overthrow of their gut or replacing their government.

Uh, to be watched. If, if Iran makes enough changes quickly enough, we may well see him in the first basket is my take on it. That’s why I’m keeping an eye on this one.

Uh, so, okay. $1 now, 95,300,000 Tomans. So that is roughly a $2 bill right there.

It’s their biggest bill is my understanding. Isn’t that crazy? Well, no, not quite that much. I’d have to do the math guys.

That was bad info. I just did a quick one in my head. I’ll, I’ll, I’ll try to work on that, but massive, massive, massive, uh, devaluation of currency going on inside of our ran right now.

And then this one, I just find interesting. Cause I’ve heard this so many times of late. Now, when I say this, nobody panicked and say, Oh my God, now it’s July.

That is not what this is saying at all. Please, for the love of God, don’t jump off a bus. Um, insiders claim Trump will reset the economy July 4th, 2026 to a new go-back currency with Andy.

She, uh, this was Sarah Westall and she had Andy Sheckman. A lot of people are saying on the anniversary, so when he could announce it, that does not mean that we will not go through the whole process, have everything in place and be done. It just may be that far away before they make it a really big golden announcement about all the work that happened, how everything’s been changed and it would be just in time for the midterm elections for the heat of it.

If you did it in July, 2026, before that November 4th election, uh, it would need to be long gone and done at that point, but you announced that new golden age on the 250th anniversary. I, I do find that one an interesting or announce it to the world. Maybe that’s when they announced the parody.

What do you guys think? I find it interesting. I don’t have all the answers, but I know that I’m going to keep grinding until I find them out. Uh, excuse me.

BJ said that was 2 million, not 200,000. I believe you to be absolutely correct because it does. It says 2 million reals.

I I’m wondering if Toman is their way of saying million, but still real. Uh, anyway, I got a little research to do, makes it fun. Ignorance is an opportunity to learn, and I’m looking forward to learning more about that one.

Uh, Icky Nancy, another birthday. They got it wrong. It’s not 72 virgins.

It’s one 72 year old virgin. Love the sense of humor. You, you folks have, and of course, uh, we do say, uh, just, uh, Mitch EMG.

Just said Doge is supposed to be done with their task and be dissolved on July 4th, 2026. It’s like, they’re setting us up for that’s like the grand announcement. Uh, Crystal’s birthday was yesterday.

That would be Bill’s daughter or no, excuse me, Lee’s daughter. And I do that a lot. Guys.

I had a friend in real life named Billy. So I often just run them together. So if your name’s Lee or Bill, I’m going to occasionally call you Bill Lee.

Reading a few of these. I’m just having, uh, enjoying this time right now. So we know a reset’s coming.

They’re talking about it openly. Your government’s talking about it openly. Many other countries are talking about it openly.

Denmark’s central bank talking about it. Meanwhile, you have the EU still desperately trying to push a central bank digital currency on folks. It’s not going to work.

Freedom, freedom will ring. It will be insisted upon by the people. All right.

Keep running. Senate passes the GOP bill, avoiding a government shutdown. Of course, it is not a great time to be Chuck Schumer’s.

His own party is now facing, uh, uh, perhaps a civil war as the progressive progressives are now mad at Mr. Schumer, which is kind of wild because I’m pretty mad at Mr. Schumer too, but not because of this one. I do think they could have done more, way more for the bill. Do I think it’s a decent compromise though, to keep Doge working and getting to the bottom of all that waste? I do.

So I’m going to take it as a necessary evil, but not ideally what I wanted. The only Republican not supporting in the Senate was Rand Paul. Rand Paul wants more.

Rand Paul always wants more. And I like Rand Paul’s approach because you need that voice to force the conversations and it is a very necessary role he plays. If he just went along without saying anything because it’s moving in that direction, then would probably lose momentum.

So, uh, kudos to Rand Paul’s take an approach on that one. All right. Canada.

Canada is officially where democracy goes to die. Mark Carney, the new prime minister. You want to know what’s unusual about it? He wasn’t elected.

Trudeau just said, Hey, this is going to be our new prime minister. So the party’s going to rally around to make prime minister. Does this sound anything like Kamala Harris getting the nomination without getting a vote for the democratic candidate we’re talking about anti democracy, they have appointed your new prime minister in Canada.

I do not want to hear anybody in Canada. Talk to me about democracy because clearly you don’t understand the term unelected appointed leader of your country. You want a King, King Trudeau, Duke Baron.

Uh, what is it you’re looking for here? Because clearly you didn’t ask Canadian people what they wanted or there would have been an election. So yes, officially Canada is where democracy goes to die. You do not have a pedestal in which to stand to preach.

You cannot talk to us about the people electing Donald Trump here because you have a leader that was unelected. Not a single person voted for Mark Carney to be your new prime minister. That is authoritarian.

You dictated who was going to be there. Do you not see the, uh, the similarities you persecute conservative, persecute entire blocks, persecute Christians, you blocked them out of churches, uh, if they did believe in freedom of medical choice, you locked them up, you took their lives, threatened to take their children, uh, their voices locked them up for speaking. And now you appoint your leader.

Do not, do not ever, ever preach to the U S or the rest of the world about democracy. You have slain it. Yeah.

This one, I don’t get it. I don’t understand it. Here’s what’s unusual.

Carney has taken office without winning an election and the count now to Canada’s next vote is already underway. Here’s what makes this transition rare and what happens next. Yeah, you just, you got nothing.

You got nothing to pitch. Charlie had it on PI day, had a birthday. Let’s see.

Gary Ross, Mark Schumer calling us all Magan Democrats who was supporting president Trump were nothing but bastards and Schumer’s empty space. Yes, we are. Isn’t it great to get this much free rent.

I’m just going to keep enjoying the free rent. Reading a few of these before I back into it. Uh, Mitch, you’re right.

There’s nothing democratic about the democratic party. They, they, they, they, they killed that one at reading a few. I’m going to get back to it.

Don’t worry at Ukraine, defending democracy, canceled all elections. Uh, they’re only allowed one press outlet. They canceled all independent journalism.

Somehow to mock, uh, mockery say that we’re fighting Putin and Putin’s a Nazi. Meanwhile, the Azov battalion have active Nazis in it. Uh, well talked about around the world before they suddenly decided to decided that they were okay with it.

It just, whatever, whatever the globalists, um, blame you for, they’re already doing whatever they scream at you about. That’s what they’re doing. Let’s see.

Mark David, Lester straight. Canada is already under the United States. He I’ve heard that one too.

There’s a lot of evidence, uh, from the corporate side of it. Yeah. You guys know my take on that one.

You can file flags. All you want file off in some random court in the other side of the world. I don’t give a crap.

Meaning look at, look at yourself, look in the mirror. Are you free? They create those structures and legal structures to try to lie to you, to convince you that somebody owns you. I get really stickly about that one.

Uh, savvy seeing the insignia, the insignia on their arms too late to hide it. They don’t even try to hide it. They were told that they needed to for press.

They need to hide their symbols or cover them up because it was bad press. In other words, totally. Okay.

With, uh, with that mindset, with that behavior, with all those things, just, it’s not a good look. So just kind of hide it. I mean, keep doing what you’re doing.

Uh, that’s just sick and twisted. So anyways, Canada, where democracy goes to die, Trump declares war on fake news, says media’s bias coverage is illegally swaying judges rulings and must be stopped. I agree with them.

They’re using blatant misinformation and psyops to affect public opinion and FUB and, and funneling that public opinion. You also influence judges because, well, they live in the public too, right? Just like it’s a, a no, no to call an election too quickly because it keeps people from going to the polls, et cetera. It is, he makes a good point.

It is electoral interference, uh, legal interference. If you sway a judge, you’re manipulating a jury. You’re manipulating a judge with your very biased news.

He makes a good point here. I don’t know if he’s going to get much in the way of traction because we already knew that and the left doesn’t care. But I love the fact that he is willing to say the quiet part out loud.

Oh, I shouldn’t say the quiet part. The part that needs to be said, the controversial part, the part that everybody knows, but won’t say sometimes we just need to say it. We need to point and go, you know, that’s the elephant right there.

You see it in the room, that big thing. It’s an elephant. Quit walking around and pretending and it’s not there.

It’s there. Putin calls for all Ukrainians in Kursk to surrender sympathetic to Trump’s request to spare lives. Uh, because the Kursk region is falling and falling quickly.

And you have for the most part, uh, largely anyways, surrounded Ukrainian troops that are cut off. Trump took the time to reach out directly to Putin and say, hey, can you spare these folks? So Putin came out and said, yes, if you will surrender and stop fighting in that region, we will treat you with all international requirements, norms, and respect. Your lives will be spared.

He’s made that a statement to the entire world. Now, of course, he also did say within Russian, Russian legal norms. Uh, but, uh, his exact statement would have been this one.

Putin responded that he was aware of Trump’s request, adding that Russia was willing to consider it. If they lay down their arms and surrender, we meaning Russia will guarantee them their lives and dignified treatment in accordance with international law and Russian legal norms. It’s all about saving the lives.

Uh, at least it is to, uh, Mr. Uh, Trump. So he’s sending that message, sending masses of troops to invade and occupy Russian territory was essentially a suicide operation to begin with, for which the Linsky has come under intense inner internal and international criticism. Kiev he has had to take more extreme measures to round up men, to send to the front lines of late, and there have been reports of a lot of resistance and conscription officers to roam the streets guys just last yesterday, I shared you one, uh, share with you one of the thousands of videos coming out of the Ukraine from forced conscription, where they’re going and taking young men, fathers, old men, you name it, jerking them out of their homes, their cars or whatever, enforcing them.

Um, doesn’t sound very democratic to me. Reading a few of you guys’s stuff, Zed Saskatchewan just said, I’m in for the 51st now, you know, Zed or should I say Z, Zed? I’ve had so many emails. Well, I shouldn’t say had so many, I’ve had a number of emails this morning from Canadians because of the appointment, the putting Carney in there, regardless of votes, what the people want, et cetera.

I’ve had a number of Canadians reach out in frustration saying at this point, uh, they’d rather be part of the U S than to live in an anti-democratic country. Come on down to the Republic. God save the Republic.

Yeah, I think buys houses. What’s with Hex at the ordering Z on all vehicles. Is that for you, Mark? Yes, guys.

You’re finally get to learn my role in the new government. I’m just kidding. Carly had a birthday pie day yesterday as well.

I love it. We had a couple of birthday pie people yesterday. Anybody else with birthdays sound off? Please wish my dad.

Karen saying, please wish my dad a happy 81st birthday today. They drove out from St. Louis to visit happy birthday 81st to your dad. Uh, Martin saying Mark Carney’s name will be on the obscene list.

Many photos with obscene and get slain. Well, that explains why they put them in power. Uh, Ooh, the Ides of March.

I really do think this is a big month. I think we get a culmination of a lot this month. Uh, fun.

Paul, Paul, I do. And yes, we are striving to be, uh, to return to the Republic. Uh, Kat Nelson’s mom’s heavenly birthday today.

Happy birthday. Avery’s 21st. Happy birthday.

Avery. Good note. Cowboy.

Good to see you in the house. Hello, Lee here. Uh, yes, Lee.

I’m going to stay on kick. I need to take the time to learn how to update pages, podcasts, et cetera. So that it has, it doesn’t automatically update in the app.

So I’ve got to learn how to do a lot of stuff in kick, but, uh, had so many of you folks, I mean, there’s only 75 people or so over on the kick side watching, but I do like having options for us, especially with all the attacks that rumble goes, uh, uh, that, that, that are targeted at rumble to try to take them down because of their adherence to free speech and come on guys, YouTube. There’s nothing free about it. It’s just easy.

And I want to get back on there with the least news or something because it does better with closed captioning. It’s tech is exponentially better than rumbles tech, uh, the. Oh, what’s the word I’m looking for? Corporate vision or the desire to assure free speech rumbles exponentially better than YouTube because YouTube is, well, they’re sending, I mean, they’re about as evil as you can get in censorship and the money they make off.

I mean, it’s, it’s unreal. The good news is, uh, based on ad revenues, et cetera, I mean, small fraction of anything we get, but it’s going to cost a YouTube probably six or seven grand for the week that I’m not there in revenue that that company would have gotten, can we get all the like middle to conservative, uh, broadcasters? We would just all leave YouTube at once. It would devastate.

We drive 80% of all content on social media. Think about that. We generate 80% of all content on social media.

They would implode financially. They would be extremely, extremely, um, wounded if all the conservatives left at once. Uh, mermaid bliss birthday is tomorrow.

Oh, beach lover. Is it beach lovers or mermaids? We’re going to run with beach lover. Let’s see.

Brian, the vote results for the four candidates show the results. 85.9 crystal Freeland Carney. One of the first ballot trying to make heads or tails that let’s back up here to, uh, Ottawa newspaper on this one, take an office without winning an election, the countdown to, oh, you’re talking about when he ran for other offices, he didn’t run for prime minister.

I think that’s where we’re going with the parliamentary tradition completed late Friday morning. It’s now official after meeting with governor general, Mary Simon. Mark Carney has been sworn in as the 24th prime minister.

Uh, the renewal hall ceremony came an hour after they talk about it in, uh, depth here. Let’s see. He also, wait, no, that’s a different one.

Now Canadians await the federal election call, which is still weeks away. How does that work? You install them and then you have the election. Somebody in Canada want to enlighten me how that works.

How can you, I mean, how can you meet before the final election? I find that curious. All right, guys, let’s see. Let’s sing happy birthday and get out of here.

Uh, beam me up. It’s going to be very difficult with the system I’m operating with YouTube down to show you the questions because of the, where they have to come from because the chat doesn’t show up in the streaming studio software I use. So some of these, I have to just read very quickly.

The question, I’m not going to put them up because it’s the system doesn’t allow for that without jumping through some massive hoops, but I will try to make it a point to read it, uh, and make it very clear the question being asked, but showing them on the screen is going to be well difficult to do with the current system for a while, at least for the week. Then it’ll get easier. So they tell me it’s your birthday.

Well, happy birthday, darling. May you live. May you love all your dreams come true.

Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday to you, to all those celebrating happy birthday.

Yeah. The only way for you to always know the questions I’m asking is going to be if we only go to one platform so that I have all the chat here and unfortunately that’s not, that’s not an approach to be trusted. So either, uh, hang along and I’ll do better at making certain you know what the question is.

All right, guys, see you Monday morning. See if we can bring this thing home. I want to bring it home this week.

Bye guys.
