Did you ever think you would make it? I feel I'm supposed to take sweet victory. I know this life meant for me. Yeah, why would you bet on Goliath when we got Bet David? Valuetainment, giving values contagious. This world of entrepreneurs, we get no value to haters. Now they run, homie, look what I've become. I'm the underworld.

All right. First of all, we're adding something new on the set. Vinny's back here setting it up. It's an Assyrian flag that was sent our way. Thank you, Max. Ramiro. Ramiro. Brandaro. Brandaro. Orlando Assyrian. Good for you. Thank you for the flag. It's on here. I love it. Is that authentically like the historic flag? No, it's fake, Tom. He sends a fake Assyrian flag. No, no, no. I'm saying I don't know Assyria. No, no. It's fake because he's just sending. He just designed the flag. Oh, gosh. Oh, shut up, you little bitch. You watch. Is that Tom?

Is that symbolic with the colors or was that really their flag at the time of it? Yeah, that's right. Tigers and Euphrates River. That's fantastic. Yeah. All right. Well, we just want to say thank you. Tom wants to know if it's real or fake. Yeah. I can't get Tom to get him to believe anything that you do here. Anyways, we got a lot of stories to go through. Okay. Tom, we love you. You guys did a phenomenal, phenomenal, unusual suspect podcast reacting to the...

VP debate. I thought it was great. We'll react to it as well. Got a couple things that's going on we'll talk about. I got a video. I don't know if you've seen it or not. The head of union said,

The way he talks, he talks like he is Jimmy Hoffa. He talks like a mob boss. He says, I'm going to cripple you. He doesn't say we. I'm going to cripple you. On day one, you have no food. Was that the speech he did in front of the people? We're not doing nothing for these people no more. He needs to have a TV show. Vinny got a letter that Mark Cuban wrote to somebody whose TV show failed. It's a letter that

It's a letter that we have to show you that was sent to, apparently Trump sent it to Mark Cuban in 2004. And by the way, I think this guy, the head of union, has more personality than the other guy that can carry your show. 100%. But stick around because we got a big announcement being made here today about what just happened. Trump, he's been invited to 60 Minutes. So you know what he says? What?

What do you think? You're fine. No, he says, I will come and do a 60-minute interview after you apologize for dismissing the Hunter Biden laptop story. Good, good. So he's not doing it until they apologize. What a way to negotiate. However— And he will only do it if it's Mike Wallace and Marla Schaefer. Kellyanne Conway urges Trump to debate Harris again. There's some people that agree with that. I think she's right.

All right. Coup bomb goes off. Eyewitness and Jill Trump, a talk to Ari Melber as DOJ reveals January 6th secret. We'll talk about that. Then you have Erdogan says Israel will be stopped sooner or later. And Tom has a lot to say about that one right there.

Next, the hurricane, Helen, when you think about this hurricane that took place, and then you see the amount of money that's being sent. You're like, okay, they're going to support Americans, right? Because you're American, right? You're in America. They love you. You're a priority over anybody else. You have to see what they're doing with that. By the way, devastating news. The death toll keeps increasing. I see videos, the toughest videos to watch.

are the ones that people are going looking for missing people. And when I saw one of them today this morning, I'm like, oh my. So they're going through it. If you're not in that environment, let's pray for the folks that are going through it. We'll talk about that as well. Housing turnover rates hit lowest in 30 years. Gen Z workers are training to become plumbers.

I wanted to see what kind of plumbers these guys are talking about because there's many different types of plumbers, but they want to become plumbers, electricians, as they lose faith in college degrees. That's a New York Post story. Then Chinese stocks surges 8.5% in the best day since 2008, but Tom's going to burst all the folks in China, and they're not going to like it, but it is what it is. And when it comes down to Diddy, oh my goodness, this lawyer...

Coe's out there and does what he does. He gets 3,000 phone calls of people telling stories of things that happened. However, 120 victims came forward, and there is a bunch of celebrities worried. Even LeBron James was asked about it, and his answer was,

was very interesting, the kind of an answer that he gave. A couple other things that I want to talk about as well when it comes down to issues. One is Newsom posted a tweet about the debate right afterwards. We'll talk about that. Cuomo had thoughts to say about J.D. Vance.

And this teacher that was not willing to call somebody by their, what do you call it? Transgender. What is their, how they identify themselves? Yeah, I just heard about these things. He was apparently fired. He sues the school. I'll tell you what happened with that. And then we got a few other stories that we'll definitely get into as well. But with that being said, here's what I want to get into. The big announcement is here.

For three years, I've been trying to buy this property. Everybody who's around me here, they all know. For three years, I stopped by this property a few hundred times. For three years, I took my wife and kids to this property many, many times.

And eventually when it came down to it, we have the recording of the auction closing. 4,400 people were interested in this property. 131 people signed the NDA. The auction takes place. There's like 40 people in the room, including a bunch of people that are on the Zoom. And we're going back and forth, back and forth. Everybody's bidding. We're going up against a couple of billion dollar companies. And then finally, and the guy was so professionally annoying because he's like, he would drag it. I was like,

So, you sure you're going to let this property go for only $100,000? You sure you're going to do this? And I'm like, he's not raising his hand. He's going once. He's out. Two and a half. Two and three quarters. We'll show the video one of these days, but it's me, Jen, Tom. We're in the room. Sam's recording, and we're like, come on. And I think they finally announced that we stand up high five. Anyways.

We got the property, so we're doing something special. As a grand opening on November 5th, election night, we want to pack this place out. By the way, some of the tickets have already gone left and right. Some of you will get a chance to fly in on a private jet, but instead of me doing it here, I want to do the video from the property for you to see. We want you to come and join us. The lowest tier ticket to just be there and hang out with the rest of us from 6 p.m. to 2, 3 o'clock in the morning is $75, but watch this clip. Go ahead, Rob. All right, let's go. Okay. Okay.

I got a big announcement to make, and the good news is you're the first to know, and you'll be the first to be invited. So the property I'm on right now, we've been working on buying this property for the last three years. It's one of its last kind in America. Why? It's on 11 acres. It's got two hangers. It's on an airport. Upgrades of $7 million made here. That's going to be the new headquarters of Valuetainment, Manek, May David Consulting, the podcast, the whole nine. And what we wanted to do in a special way that you're going to hear about this two days before I announce it publicly on the PBD Podcasts,

We want to find a way to celebrate this as a new headquarters with inviting you to an event on November 5th, which is election night. A lot of different things. People will be talking about business owners. What's going to happen if it goes this way? What's going to happen if it goes that way? So imagine 2,000 people being here. Let me show you around. Some of you will have a private meeting with me. That's the elite. That's going to be a few of you. Some will get a private tour of the entire office from us. There's a hangar in the back. So you come up here. Imagine there's going to be a couple of major tents, 40 feet by 100 feet, where some of the people that are buying general tickets

We'll be there. But over here inside the hangar is where the podcast will be held. This entire thing will be open like it is right now. Inside of it, myself, the PBD Podcast crew, some of the super VIPs will be invited to go upstairs in a section that we have that's got a bar, a restaurant, food, you know, kitchen. You're eating, you're watching it from all the way up there while we're doing the podcast down here in the hangar. So imagine in this room there's a thousand people, right, while we're going through this whole thing. Conversation is going to be from 6 p.m. is when it starts.

all the way up to 2 o'clock in the morning. Who knows? Maybe we'll go 3, 4 o'clock in the morning because a lot of things are going to be going on. And by the way,

Do you know why we're not cutting this? We're on an airport. These are planes. We have to hear because right here is the airport. And FYI, Messi plays right there at that stadium right behind us. So, you got 48 hours before I announce this publicly. There's five tickets here that you can purchase. Each one's got more things to offer. But even locally, there's general tickets to buy for just $75. Bring your wife, bring your husband, bring your family, bring your friends. There's one caveat after you buy the ticket. When you buy the ticket and you come on November 5th, you have to wear Future Looks Bright here. I'm talking Future Looks Bright hat, a shirt,

It doesn't matter. You're going to have to show I've got some kind of future looks bright here because we want everybody here to spread the message and the energy of optimism around the world back to their states wherever you're going to be. So November 5th, click on the link above or below. Get registered. And if you're watching this saying, "Well Pat,

I like to travel private. Can I bring my private jet here? Totally me. Five of you guys will be after you buy your ticket. Then you can ask us. And that's only available to the tickets at the highest level possible to bring your jet and park it here. So having said that, get your tickets. And I cannot wait to see you November 5th, 6 p.m. at our new headquarters in Fort Lauderdale. Take care, everybody. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.

Can I ask you a question, though? Yes, of course. So does that mean Tom can't bring his jet because you're bringing five others? No, Tom's going to be driving there. By the way, go to 5990live.com to buy the ticket. They will go fast, especially the Premier tickets. And the Super VIPs, they have food, they have drinks, they have bars. You'll be sitting in the front. So...

networking, people you're going to meet, environment, what's going to happen, election 2024, which person's going to be the president, how do I do my policies this way, policies that way, you know, if this person wins, all of that stuff will be in the room. People like-minded like you, so I cannot wait for this. And by the way,

This may become a tradition that we do every four years. You don't want it. This is like the Super Bowl. This is like the, not even Super Bowl, it's the World Cup of Elections, right? Every four years. And it'll get bigger and bigger and bigger. And you want to be somebody to say, was that the first ever election night in America they held?

at VT headquarters. And I'm going to invite a lot of friends. Some influencers you know that may be there giving their opinion. Some old-timers that were on the podcast in the past may be invited to come and give their thoughts. Tom's going to give his analysis. The great Amy will be on the stage with Tom giving their analysis on what's going on with the polls as well. Anyways, go to 5990 Live. Get your ticket. I want to see you at this event. And FYI, lastly...

On 5990live.com, there's a code at the bottom for you to use to get a 10% discount. And the first 100 people that go buy merch right now, we're putting... And by the way, if you place an order over 70 bucks, we're putting a unique mug in there and a couple gifts that I don't even want to tell you, but it's those that go into the bottom of it. There is a...

Secret passcode to put to get a 10% discount on any merch you buy when you go to $59.95. Anyways, let's get right into it. Exciting stuff with this taking place. With that being said, Tom, let's get right into it. VP debate happened two nights ago, right? Yeah.

And during this debate, nobody knew what was going on. The media was selling that waltz is nervous and a media was selling that JD Vance is not likable. Everybody was waiting for JD Vance to come in, to be an a-hole, to be a jerk, to be pompous, to be arrogant, to not be like this guy just thinks he knows it all. The audience is not going to like him. And then all of a sudden, Rob, do you have any of the clips of what people were saying afterwards saying JD one, JD one, JD one, JD one. If you,

don't have a let's play one of the clips and you can look for it afterwards. But show a couple of the highlights, Rob. Whatever you got, just show us a couple highlights and we'll respond to it. Go ahead. Senator, thank you. Governor, you previously opposed an assault weapons ban, but only later in your political career did you change your position. Why? Yeah, I sat in that office with those Sandy Hook parents. I've become friends with school shooters. I've seen it. Look, the NRA, I was the NRA guy for a long time. They used to teach gun safety. I'm of an age where my shotgun was in my car so I could pheasant hunt after football practice.

Okay. So that was one of the ones that was. I think he misspoke, but to say that I'm friends with school shooters, like we hang out on the weekend. I tell them not. I became friends with a school shooter. So that was one of the moments. Tom, your thoughts on that when he said that? When he said peasants, I was really worried that he was talking about the poor. But it wasn't going to surprise me because, you know, he's up there at Christian Home.

So what happened, what was very interesting to happen is right now we're not going to know what the bounce is for about a week and a half for real polls. But here's what we did find in early focus groups. The enthusiasm for J.D. Vance went up with Trump supporters.

Why? Because we really didn't know him yet. But now we saw him in this in this context and he did not come off as a jerk. He came off very presidential. And if you take a look, there were thousands of tweets by regular people. I was scanning through all kinds of stuff, Pat, that said, wow, I'm confident of him being president as a vice president if something should happen. Yeah.

So that meant J.D. showed well to the Republican supporters who said, didn't see it this way. Like what I see. You could even be the president like it. But that's not going to move the independent voters yet. Walsh, believe it or not, gained a little traction with enthusiasm, not new voters, with Democrat women, middle class women who thought he was approachable and nice and friendly. However,

There was also a great deal of, OK, who won the debate? You know, we have the overnight opinion polls. It was 65-35. Anybody you look at, you know, you can find a couple very liberal stations that would say, oh, it was 50-50. Yeah, right. Even CNN and ABC were saying, well, this is 65-35, according to the polls we're seeing. And that's what came out of it. So what was really interesting about this is J.D. didn't make any gaffes.

And he was unflappable. He tried to go up against the moderators. Once again, it was three against one, two moderators and walls up against advance and similar to what Trump faced. And so I would argue that the moderators, if you look at what was out there, even did worse than ABC. They caught more heat, especially Margaret Brennan. She was the one in the pink and.

caught more heat from citizens about the way they conducted themselves. So we'll find out if there's a bounce or if there's movement, but it showed great for J.D. We got to see Walsh a little bit. He came across as likable, but is he a likable frumpy uncle you want in front of Vladimir Putin? Nope. The answer to that was no. What was shocking about it, the fact that they got along and they were having a civil conversation, respectful, the moment about...

When he said his 17 year old son witnessed, you know, the shooting. And then he says, I am so sorry. May, you know, Christ have grace. And J.D. Vance comes back and you, you actually saw something where you said, this gave me the vibes of an eighties debate. Yes. Okay. It gave me a vibe of an eighties debate where,

Because the last, I don't know, how many years would you say? 12 years? Probably, yeah, the last eight. It's been very, very high tension. And do you think right now, after his performance on this debate that took place, do you think now J.D. is the number one draft pick for 2028? Well, a lot of people were saying that because there's –

Ann Coulter put out a very snarky tweet that I think she may want to pull back. She won't. She said, J.D. Vance looking great. What's the life expectancy of a 78-year-old in a high-pressure job?

Which isn't a very nice thing to say. And what she's saying is, I like J.D. Vance as my president if something happens to Trump. But there was a lot of people that came out and you saw Vance 28. So the Republicans, a lot of people are going to be running on that. But Vance is definitely a draft pick. Is he number one? Right now, if he becomes VP and shows well, how can he not be number one coming out of that? You know what is impressive, though? What is impressive, the fact that while...

She could have chosen Shapiro, who's formidable, who carries himself well, who's tough, who's strong, well-spoken, right? She chooses him.

And while he could have chosen anybody else, right? He could have chosen, you know, and I'm not saying, I'm not going to give name. He could have chosen a couple other guys. But he chose somebody that called him out before. Oh, horrible. Call him Hitler. Exactly. To now put him there to show that I'm okay with somebody that can have moments bigger than me. Because Vance yesterday, two days ago, was all about Vance. He shined. Big time. He shined in a big way to the point where even liberals were like,

We're sitting there saying, I was not expecting to like this guy. I ended up liking this guy. There was a moment where, you know, when I looked at Waltz, I tweeted something. I said, listen, I don't know about you, but Waltz seems 10 times more likable than Kamala. I just liked Waltz more than Kamala. There was something about him. I'm like, I like this guy. I don't know if debating is for him. He's not a guy that should be debating. But for what it was worth, he was likable. I thought JD just talked, poised, strong,

gave his issues. You could tell this guy went to Yale, studied debate. You could tell this guy's a true believer on stage when he's speaking. I was very impressed with Waltz. Adam. Going down the line, draft pick for 2028. It isn't even close. It's Vivek. The guy's a beast. He's a monster. He's not going anywhere. I think we learned something about him two days ago that I could see him being the next governor of Ohio. No problem. Would you want to be a part of the Trump administration? Do you want to be governor of Ohio? No.

Vivek will have his chance. Obviously...

Uh, JD will be there. I know you have, you want to say something, but wait, so do you, and I'm being genuine. Do you think, cause I don't know if it was you or one of us, but somebody said it where the fact that Vivek, I think he's ridiculous. He's amazing. I love the guy, but the fact that he's not a Christian, do you think he's still the number one choice as a, um, a Christian majority country? Would they be comfortable voting for a non-Christian as a president? Very good question. Very good point. That's something that he'll have to answer. I mean, we remember that conversation that we had, uh,

Um, it was the PBD town hall with Vivek and one of the ladies asked him that exact same question. And, you know, listen, uh,

The number one thing on my mind in America right now isn't necessarily what Vivek believes in as a higher power. Do you love America? Are you happy to be American? Are you proud to be an American? Yes, qualified, done. But as far as this debate goes, J.D. Vance won this debate hands down. The dude is a cool, calm, collected sniper. He's basically touting all of Trump's policies without being abrasive or...

aggressive or name-calling he's so smooth i'm telling you so you know the vp debate with the conversation that we had with vivek was yeah does this really even matter well there's been two possibly three assassination attempts on donald trump so i would argue that god forbid fill in the blank dot dot dot dot yeah jd vance is there meanwhile could you imagine tim wall's

As in sitting in the Oval Office, are you kidding me? I mean, this guy is giving me Matt Foley, Chris Farley vibes from SNL, living in a van down by the river. He walks in there. He's like, excuse me, Adam, what's going on around here now? Listen, I'm friends with school shooters, and there's nothing wrong with that. We can't be villainizing migrants. Let them in.

It doesn't matter who they are. Let them in the country. By the way, when I was in Tiananmen Square and I was at the Hong Kong protest, Mr. Walls, you weren't there. I said, that's my bad. I got some misinformation. Anyway, you know, when Joe Biden is doing that face like this,

Yeah, that loss face. I've adapted that face as well. It's the common look. I'm just saying he is so unequipped, unprepared. I mean, I don't know how that guy became mayor of Minnetonka, much less president.

Governor of Minnesota, you want that guy in the Oval Office? I'm good, PBD. Right. Okay. Got it. I'm just not... Listen, the fact that... Well, I mean, it wasn't a shock, but it was still a shock that the moderators were literally cheating and helping again, and they got caught. And J.D. Vance, like you said, Adam... Do you have that moment? That's probably the best moment there, when he fact-checked them. J.D. fact-checked and goes, hey, you guys aren't supposed to be doing... Which I absolutely love. And what'd they do to him? I don't know.

They cut his mic. But I mean, dude, in those moments, and that's why, Adam, when we're talking about Trump, guys, and when people are like, well, Trump's always angry and always since, and again, for eight years, the day he announced, it's been a shitstorm on him. You would have that attitude too. So I think this is that moment where, you know, you say enough is enough. You put them on blast. And by the way, if I was me, if they did it again, I'd be like, listen, I'm going to walk off the stage if you guys keep giving this person an advantage. This is it right here, right, Rob? Played, Rob.

Thank you, Governor. And just to clarify for our viewers, Springfield, Ohio does have a large number of Haitian migrants who have legal status, temporary protected status. Watch your face. Watch your face. I think it's important. We're going to turn out of the economy. Thank you. Margaret, the rules were that you guys weren't going to fact check. And since you're fact checking me, I think it's important to say what's actually going on.

So there's an application called the CBP One app where you can go on as an illegal migrant, apply for asylum or apply for parole and be granted legal status at the wave of a Kamala Harris open border wand. That is not a person coming in, applying for a green card and waiting for 10 years. That is the facilitation of illegal immigration, Margaret. By the way, go play the clip of Chris Cuomo reacting to this.

Go play the clip of Chris Cuomo reacting to this. I just texted it to you. Did you see Don Jr., Caitlin Collins, what's her name, from CNN? She goes up to him and he just, I sent it to Rob Tuba. It's awesome because she's like, well, your dad's the one that's starting all this political. And he's like, oh, really? You guys are the ones that are saying Hitler and you guys are, it's actually, I sent it to Rob Tuba. When they were talking at one point, Vance wanted to correct something about how Haitians got into this country.

And he was right. And the moderators wouldn't let him correct it. It's very interesting. But thank you, Senator. We have so much to get to. We're going to turn out of the economy. I want to go to Chris's back at the end. Right there. Go ahead. Well, there you have it. And look, Vance was right. OK, there's nuance to it. But the bigger problem is why he was moved on. We've got so much to get to. This is who?

You know what I mean? Like, what is the schedule here? So you have a list of topics. That's not what it's about. It's about how the American people can access these two men and the two theories and the narratives. And you've got to let them have their speak because now you created a story where you're the problem, which I love it. So if you have the junior clip, I slagged it. But because you're question, because we brought up the fact, I mean, guys, it's still an actual real story.

that Donald Trump, we still have, you know, what, 38 days, 40 days left? Less. I think less. We're months out. But I still think in my heart of hearts that they're still going to try to take him out if God forbid, Pat, because I think the country, we'd be over if that actually happens, if they go through with it. Because of this performance, is J.D. Vance, is it good enough to where if God forbid Trump gets taken out that this guy could take the mantle and actually win the Republican vote? Oh, by the way, let me,

I'm going to tell you this. If they take Trump out in the next 33 days, I don't even want to use the words, but we're talking about it. My percentage goes to 90% Vance wins. Oh, no. Wow. Yeah. I'm on the exact opposite side. I'm on the exact direction I'm going. Let me tell you why. You want me to tell you why? Yeah. I'll tell you why. Because...

You know the song, The Freaks Come Out at Night? Yes. You know who's going to come out? The Freaks Come Out at Night. You know who's going to come out? The Freaks Come Out. The people that were going to sit on the sidelines are going to say, F you. And he says, I'm not even a guy that likes this guy. You ever see somebody you can't stand? Yep. And then you watch something and you're like,

Are you freaking kidding me? You're making me like this guy. And then you want to root for this person, right, when that takes place, right? I don't know if you guys have seen the McMahon documentary or not that just came out. Matt and Sheena Sopala, you've got to watch it. Steve Avetti, you've got to watch it. I'm like, guys, you think I have time to six? So what do I do? Saturday night.

Jed's asleep. I watch first episode. It's 1030. I watch second episode. I'm like, you got to be kidding me. Then I wake up at six o'clock in the morning on Sunday, go downstairs in my office, watch the third episode. I watched the fourth episode. I watched the fifth. I finished the whole thing. I don't do stuff like this. Unless if it's like last dance, of course, Jeter, you know,

And then you see this where the experience of the fan, like, you know, Rob, you and I spoke about it. I said, did you like his daughter more or less? We said what? Less. Yes. Did you like his son more or less? More. Did you like Vince more or less? You kind of are like, man, I feel for this guy, right? Now, of course, some of the crazy things that he did, if they do something like that, they're going to make fans.

The people that can't stand them like them, and they're going to come out and they're going to say, you're going to make me vote for him? I'm going to vote for him. I can't believe you did this. And why did you say no, Adam? You said no. You said opposite of what Pat said. You're saying, God forbid, Trump gets assassinated? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, you're taking out the candidate. What do you think? People are going to vote. But where's the MAGA movement going to go? They're going to just give up?

Yeah, that's a good question. I mean, look, the fact that we're even having this conversation is the craziest part. It's crazy because I'm not being facetious. I'm being serious. If and when, you know, this would be a complete hypothetical, but the dude got shot in the ear. And then they found the guy on the golf course. So it's actually sad and sort of disgusting that we even have to have this conversation. Well, let's go from diatribing conversation back to facts. What Pat just said, you said, you know, freaks come out at night. Pat, the facts are with you.

independence moved at least four points to Trump and,

After the assassination attempt in Butler, they moved because there was a collective feeling in this country that was this. Not this way. We don't do it this way. And he picked up support. It's a fact. And that's the numbers. The numbers are screaming. People moved to Trump saying we're not doing it this way and I'm supporting him. By the way, and I'm only saying this after the VP debate. Yes. I would have said this pre-VP debate, just so you know that.

you know how many people live were watching the VP debate on YouTube, on CBS? 265,000. Wow. You mean to tell me that many people were interested? That's not good for the left. That is not because he,

He shined. Big time. So, Rob, can you play that clip with Junior and Sweetheart? Just her face is so positive. But on the debate itself, it was very civil. I mean, they acknowledged when they agreed. They gave each other the benefit of the doubt. Should we see more of that on the debate stage when your dad's up there?

You know what, I'd love to see that across the board. Sometimes the political climate isn't that much. We've all heard about Trump's arrangements. We've seen what they've lied about my family. I was an agent of Russia, but Hunter Biden's laptop was totally Russian disinformation. Turns out the opposite was true. The media did that. They created so much of that environment. The media has radicalized the people that are trying to kill my father. I've had to deal with that twice now in the last two months. I've had to have that conversation with my five young children.

twice in the last two months about someone trying to shoot their grandfather. She can't help herself. That didn't just magically happen. That's not him. That's a media-created fake Russia scenario. They ran with it for years. Even when it was disproven, they still ran with it.

That environment wasn't just created by Donald Trump. Okay, but can I say you can't blame, and no one wants, everyone wants your dad to be safe. No one wants the threats against his life to happen, but you can't blame the media for those threats. There's been no evidence. That's what drove those issues. And allows people to have a platform to call someone literally Hitler every day for nine years. It creates it.

Whether you want to believe it or not, that's a fact. But as you know, J.D. Vance once likened your dad to Hitler as well. He questioned if he was America's Hitler. But I want to talk about the debate. She can't help herself. She can't help herself. No matter what. It's never them. It's never them taking the fault, Tom. It's always, like, they created this problem and the fact

that and you nailed it adam the fact that this is still a real guys when i'm saying it it's not a joke tom they're they're especially when you talk about these polls tom and these numbers which i've been seeing it on the decision trump's starting to gain that momentum when they realize they have no like she's gonna lose then what are they gonna do they gotta try to take them out period well that's where we are two things can be true at once because if we're gonna blame the media for gaslighting america yes guilty

But let's not pretend that Trump didn't get up on stage in 2016 and be like, you're fat, you're a loser, you're little Marco, you're this, you're that. So some of the incivility did start from Trump. But that's also part of the allure of Trump is that he will talk smack to your face. He's a game changer. So, I mean, take the good with the bad. Donald Trump Jr. is right. Yep.

But also Caitlin Collins. By the way, in the modern world, that's called campaigning. And you do want to destabilize your opponent's platform. I'm with you. It worked for him. Yeah, me too. Let's not pretend that he went out there and he was like, hey, guys. No, of course. He dismantled the Republican base. Yeah.

And the Republican candidacy, two things can't be true at once. We've spent a lot of time on this and we've got more stories. Those two things are true. All right, let's go to the next one. So let's go to the letter. Guys, how good are you at writing love letters? I'm curious. I'm going to ask you. Be honest.

Maybe we should ask your wife. How good are you at writing love letters? Hey, Jen, how good am I at writing love letters, right? Babe, tell me if I write love letters as good as this man writes love letters. Watch this. Imagine you get a letter October 18th, which is the greatest day of the year because it's my birthday, right? So on that day, October 18th, 2004, okay?

Trump writes a letter to Mark Cuban. Dear Mark, can you zoom in a little bit more, Rob? I am truly sorry to hear that your show has been canceled for lack of rating. When I initially called you to congratulate you on The Benefactor, little did you or I realize how disastrous and embarrassing it would turn out to be. If you ever decide to do another show, please call me and I will be happy to lend a helping hand.

Now we know why he hates him. It is out. Everybody now knows. But by the way, next time you brag about how good you are at writing love letters, this is the standard. This is the standard on how you write it. How funny is that? Do you think he was actually... Do you think he was poking him? Do you think he was poking him? Do you think he knew? He's like, I'm sorry you're a loser, but thank you. I love you. You saw what he did. I feel like this is part of Trump, by the way. Yeah.

Is that like you saw when he talked about with RFK is like RFK, radical liberal, radical liberal. Love this guy. Love this man. He wants to protect America. He wants to protect our future. Can't trust him, though. Radical. Can't believe him. But what a guy. Loser. What a guy. I mean, I just I listen.

Donald Trump is a freaking gamer. He's a shit talker. He's a New Yorker. By the way, this is after the show The Benefactor was canceled because of the low ratings. It was a horrible show. So when you send that type of letter, by the way, this letter is just out there. Somebody took a

photo of it and has it out there. This one and then the fact that they were at Mar-a-Lago. I remember Trump went up to him, to Mark Cuban after he's already a billionaire and he goes, hey, maybe one day you'll be able to go up there and sit with the rich people. Two things here. One, Rob, if you can see the text I sent you,

Is this how bad it did? Is this what it was, the benefactor? By the way, I'm not trying to be sarcastic. I don't even remember the benefactor. Me neither. Can you pull up the logo, Rob? Maybe it was something special. I don't know what this thing was. The benefactor. The benefactor. Wait, what kind of photo is that? Hang on. It went one season and six episodes. Not 13. And then got shut down. They normally shoot 13, Pat. No. By the way, do you want to know who carries the weight in Shark Tank? It's Kevin O'Leary.

You take Kevin O'Leary out, that show is gone. It's not even the same. Mark Cuban doesn't have it. You know what I mean? He doesn't have it. Cuban is not going to be the lead on a show. Rob, can you pull up the clip I sent you with Trump on Larry King like 30 years ago? Have you seen this? No. He goes on Larry King and look how he starts it within the first five seconds. Pause it.

Because it's a seven-second clip. Watch this. Go ahead. Can you mind if I sit back a little bit? Because your breath is very bad. It really is. Has this ever been told to you before? So apparently, he was... Apparently, before this clip, just to give us some context...

He's telling him, you're disgusting. When you negotiate, he goes, no, Adam, I think it's when you negotiate with people. He goes, how do you get the upper hand? He goes, you want to like act it out. And this was like an act. Jump goes, okay, I'll show you how I would do. Like, can you back up? Cause that diffuses the person. Then all of a sudden they're like, oh my God, they make, they get less confident. I mean, dude, he's a freaking boss, man. He's a master negotiator. I'm so happy to be here. Your breath is disgusting. You look great.

Either you are this or you're not. You can't act this. Either you are this or you're not. You cannot act any of this. Go back to the Cuban thing. When we were talking about Cuban, we were talking about somebody that's good on TV. Rob, can you pull up the longshoremen, the head of union of the ports, the 36 ports,

I want you to, by the way, this is a guy that's complaining about, he's asking for 77% raise. If you can click that button so the audio will be ready. He's the head of the dock workers union is threatening to cripple the U S economy, but watch how he speaks like a loving, caring, wholesome. I just want you to watch this guy. Go ahead. Go ahead. Ripple you. And you have no idea what that means. When my men hit the streets,

From Maine to Texas, every single port will lock down. First week, be all over the news every night, boom, boom. Second week, guys who sell cars can't sell cars because the cars ain't coming in off the ships. They get laid off. Third week, malls start closing down. They can't get the goods from China. They go out of business. Construction workers get laid off because the materials aren't coming in. They lose their job. Everybody's hating the longshoremen now.

Because now they realize how important our jobs are. I will cripple you. Okay.

By the way, he's not lying. They have a very, very important job. Okay. Now, he's talking about the kind of money they make. Rob, can you pull up his house? Okay. Look up his name and go pull up his house. Yeah. Go pull up his house. Type in house. Okay. Go to, this is his house. Zoom in. 7,000. Yeah. But you have to see his house. Depends on where he lives though. No, keep going. That's just a four car garage. See if that's the picture that shows the house. Oh my God.

Keep going. Keep going. Dude. Keep going. Where's that? Connecticut? Where's he at, Pat? Regardless, it's a nice house. He's got a nice place. Zoom in. Let's just see what the house looks like. Okay. So this is going back to a Bentley convertible. I mean, that's a five-car garage, outdoor sauna, brick pizza oven. You know, these rich people, right? You got to be careful with these rich people, right? But no, the point is this.

This is a guy that's a union boss who knows he has the leverage right now. He knows he's going to bring the pain right now, and he's asking for a 77% raise.

For his guys to match what's being made on the West Coast, the same guys apparently are making 116 on the West Coast. They're claiming they're making average 81. And he wants them to get a 77% raise, which will put him at 143 to match what West Coast is getting. It's a 43% raise. He's making his demands. And his argument is during COVID, you guys made a lot of money.

While COVID was taking place and we didn't see any of it and want to get some of it. But the way he's going about doing it, this is where union kind of gets in trouble, man. Tom. And if you look around the world, you can just Google this. Don't do it right now, but...

Google automated, automated ports, ports, ports, P-O-R-N-S, T-S-T-S, got it. Ports that did porn, something else. Yeah. And what you are find is these completely robotic, you know, longshoremen are needed less because there's all this robotic stuff that is unloading ships and the number of people that are needed. And they put them onto self-driving trucks.

And so we know we have self-driving trucks. So we got to be careful here. There was a certain candidate who jumped all over $20 minimum wage in New York City, and it accelerated the entire fast food industry putting kiosks in.

And they went to one of the vendors that helped Southwest. Remember Southwest Burbank Airport? It was like one of the first kiosks. Remember that? And we assume that you went up to that kiosk because, well, it's a low-cost airline, so they're doing this. But guess what? Look at this. This is an automated port. So you want to be really careful about this. I believe longshoremen should get fair pay for the work they do. It's hazardous and things like this. But you've got to be careful pushing people too far. Otherwise, kids lose jobs at McDonald's to kiosks.

And this happens. Well, this is coming no matter what, Tom. This is coming no matter what. And this is their number one fear because they're worried 15% to 30% of their job is going to be replaced by this. That's what their biggest fear is. And this exists. And this not only exists, it's just getting better and better and better and better and better. But, Pat, like...

When it comes to the union situation, it's like we're letting one person have that much power where he could shut this down because the snowball effect of this, Tom, I'll be honest, if they shut down for a month, because I already saw people at Costco, they're buying toilet paper, they're buying paper towels. It's in the line at Costco right now across the country are insane. How bad...

letting one guy have this much power. And I get it. You know, money deserves... Well, this is the way it works. I mean, this is a CEO. How can Tim Cook have this much power? How could Jimmy Hoffa over the team shows that this much power? This is the way it goes. And if you don't have...

You need to have a leash on leadership. Leadership needs to be strong. It needs to be clear. It needs to be transparent. And if you go over the edge, you can find yourself at a company with an out-of-control CEO and you lose your job because he's a knucklehead. Or you could be in a union where there's a negative effect because you reach too far. Right.

And so this is the drama and the danger of unleashed leadership. But something's going on with unions these days because we've covered this a few times now with the dock workers. What are they called? Longshoremen. Longshoremen. Who heard of longshoremen in the last hundred years? I didn't even think this was a thing. Yeah.

But they're making themselves relevant. We saw what happened with UAW, the United Auto Workers. We saw what happened in Hollywood, the writer's strike. There's a lot of things in automation and, and exactly. And chat GPT and AI, these conversations are going to start to hop up, but is it a money thing or is it more of a social cultural thing?

culture war kind of a thing because the the the democrats used to be the party of the working man i would argue that the democrats are now the party of the working woman military what is it one of these days actually you know the the the for all the talk of that the republicans and the tax cuts only care about the millionaires and the billionaires and all this stuff i don't know you know this is the first time that uh the uh auto workers did not

endorse a Democrat. So there's a, there's a shift going on there with that. But ultimately, if you've ever read the book, how to win friends and influence people, you know, they say the, we all need food, water, shelter, clothing, all that. But there's another thing that you always need that everyone craves. And that is appreciation or at the very least recognition. And what's the form of recognition you get in a job? Well, that's compensation. Now the question is, is your compensation really going to increase 77% or

What happened with the United Auto Workers when they did their deal, they were asking for 25%. So, Pat, how realistic is it as a business owner to come in there as a capitalist, say, all right, I want to meet you here. I want to get the supply chain going 77%. What do you think this guy makes per year? What do you think this guy makes per year? $100,000. $900,000. Half a million bucks. Oh, you know? Half a million. How much? You know what he makes.

Yes. Are you guessing or you knew? No, I just said it. Oh, no. He made it 900 a year. 900 a year. Yeah. So go to the link I sent you, Rob, and look at his yacht. Yep. Elon Musk tweeted about his yacht. He says, this guy's got a bigger yacht than I do.

Do we have a problem with this guy making money? I have zero problem with that. No. I have zero problem. But crippling America? That does nothing for me. And by the way, out of the amount of money that this union has gave to candidates, they've given $115,000 to Dems and $5,000 to conservatives. Really? So it's not like, yeah. So there's still a union. The money that they've given out. Go up so we can see Elon's name, Rob. There it is, Pat. $728,000 plus $173,000. Go a little higher so we can see Elon's. There you go. Dude has more yachts than me. So that's him. $728,000 last year plus $173,000 as president of the local union. So.

So he's making money. He's making good money for himself on what he's doing. However, here's what also is going to happen many times with union leaders.

Union leaders sometimes hurt their own guys because their own guys are like, hey, man, I can't go that long. You know what the average longshoreman is thinking about? One month. How much cash have I saved up that I can pay my bills? Not a lot. So he doesn't have a long time. So guess who knows that? The other side. So this thing, if this goes back and forth, it could be done as quickly as a week.

Or it could take... If it takes anything past November 5th, it ain't good for a party. That's all it is. But let's go to the next story, Rob. Let's go to the next story. So...

While all of this is going on, Erdogan and Iran, you know, Iran's still going through their issues. Israel's still doing what they're doing. Erdogan comes out and says Israel will be stopped sooner or later. Okay, Adam, I'm going to come to you for this one because Tom's message is very heavy, but I'm going to come to you first.

So Turkish President Erdogan condemned Israel's actions on Lebanon, stating whatever it does, Israel will be stopped sooner or later. He urged international organizations, particularly the UN, to act immediately, saying all state and international organizations, especially the UN, must stop Israel without wasting any more time. Erdogan warned that Israel's terror and genocide in Gaza had now reached Lebanon and expressed concerns that Israel could eventually return.

Target Turkey. He directly compared Israel Prime Minister to Hitler, declaring just as Hitler was stopped, Netanyahu will be stopped in the same way. Turkey foreign minister announced contingency plan to evacuate its 14,000 citizens from Lebanon due to the worsening security situation. Adam.

So what's the famous phrase that accused the other side of exactly what you're doing. I feel like what's going on in the middle East right now is as this art, is this all starting to play out? Is this, it's this sort of 1984 Orwellian reverse revisionist version of history where you ever, you ever see a guy, you ever see like a guy say, Hey, give me your fricking lunch money. Yeah. And you're like, no, what do you mean? Give me your, give me your fricking lunch money, dude.

No, I'm good. Give me your lunch money. And all of a sudden, give me your lunch money right now or I'm going to kick your ass. And all of a sudden, the guy goes, okay, I guess. And then the guy who was trying to take the guy's lunch money gets the living shit kicked out of him because he messed with the wrong guy. That's what's basically happening here is because...

Whether it's Turkey, what have they done in the past? Bullying the Armenians and Assyrians, genocide. Let's not even talk about that. Brush that away. But everything that's going on in the Middle East right now is just the epitome of gaslighting. By the way, Iran is the bigger story here. Iran and its sort of terror proxies around the world. You know what they're doing right now? Losing. Hamas is dismantled.

Hezbollah, I mean, in a matter of weeks, the entire leadership, boom. Like, PBD, who's your favorite sports team in the world right now? Yankees. Okay, so the Yankees. So imagine they go, and it's a playoff game. It's October right now. And they go, and instead of Aaron Judge and all their best players take the field, it's all the replacements. How do you think the Yankees are going to do? Hezbollah and their entire terror regime has been dismantled. And then we're also learning something about Iran.

They ain't shit. What do I mean? You know what Iran is the best at more than anything? Suppressing their own people and subjugating their own people. You know what they're also very awesome at? Funding terror proxies around the world. You know what they're not very good at? Fighting.

They just sent hundreds of missiles into Israel. Think about that. Imagine if Mexico sent hundreds of missiles into America. What would America do to Mexico? But we don't have to have that conversation because we're not living next to terror regimes. But Iran sends hundreds of missiles into Israel. OK, and they have one person who dies.

And it's randomly an Arab guy who a rocket literally falls on his head. Have you seen this clip? It's insane. So what I would argue is this. I might, I'm sort of at a position right now where we might, this is the closest we've seen to the end of this Iranian terror regime. Because if you're Israel right now, you now have a pass to say, you know what?

Let's go after their oil refineries. Let's go after their nuclear capabilities. Now's the time. Because here's what I've learned about Israel. Whether they go too hard, they're going to be blamed for genocide. Whether they go too soft, they're going to be blamed. So all these terms, these buzzwords, these fake news terms like...

It's genocide. It's apartheid. It's terrorism. Erdogan called it Israeli expansionism. Have you seen a map of the Middle East compared to what Israel is? All these terms is colonization and occupation. The only thing that's been occupied are all these great Muslim Arab countries that have been hijacked by

by terror regimes. Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the number one terror regime in the world is the Islamic Republic of Iran that has terrorized the Iranian people. And the bottom line is the Iranian people, if you ever see comments on any post on social media, the Iranian people are with the people fighting against the terror regime in Iran, against the Ayatollahs. That's how you know they're losing. Tom. This episode is brought to you by Maersk.

This is what you do when you've just found that statement handbag on eBay and you want to build an entire wardrobe around it. You start selling to keep buying. Yep, on eBay. Over that all-black everything phase, list it and buy all the color. Feeling more vintage than ever? It's out with the new and in with the pre-loved. Next thing you know, you've refreshed your wardrobe basically without spending a dime. Yeah, eBay. The place to buy and sell new, pre-loved, vintage, and rare fashion.

Well, I think Erdogan just became a complete wimp in this. Israel will be stopped sooner or later, sooner or later. It's like a bad mom in a grocery store aisle. It says, Jeremy, sooner or later, I am so upset with you and the kids having a tantrum and the mom can't control them. He says, sooner or later, when we get home, your dad's going to... And that's what he sounds like here. When have you seen...

Turkey saying, we'll get the UN. I'm calling on the UN to act immediately and stop these guys. This is ridiculous. Erdogan, he's got nothing to say here because he's, first of all, he is the largest military out there, right? And he's got a lot of might that he could unleash, but we have two leashes. We have a leash a little bit on Israel and we have a leash a little bit on Turkey.

and we're not going to let these two guys go at it. So to save face with his Arab and Muslim colleagues, he has to come out and say something. But he comes out and says, we're going to get the UN to write you a letter that says you're in trouble, dude. By the way, that is a very weak position. It's terrible. Why would you come from there?

I was so confused when I'm reading this saying, how could he come from a position like that? Benny, what do you think about the story? I think he's on a leash. I don't know. I think, well, first of all, those missiles being launched, I mean, Adam made, you know, Adam...

just made it pretty damn clear. These people launch all these missiles, nothing hits, nothing killed. The only person that was killed was a Palestinian dude where like a debris of a missile hit him in the head. No, not the debris. There was a missile that fell on the guy's head. It was a big piece of a missile. Yeah, it's pretty big. It was pretty bad. But, you know, I mean, you know, I still feel bad that the guys, he wasn't a terrorist, right? He's just walking around and the thing hit him in the head. Look at this. Here's the video. Yeah. Have you seen this? That guy's just chilling. And then this thing just, oh yeah.

I don't want them to show up, but I'll show you guys just because I don't know what the rules are for YouTube. Yeah, so this guy's chilling on the corner. Hey, guys, just here in Israel just hanging out, and all of a sudden, boom! That's a piece of a missile. Are you kidding me? That's a huge piece of a missile. I hope we didn't show that. No, we didn't. No, we didn't show that. So, I mean, people at home can watch it. That's the only person that died after hundreds of missiles from Iran? Yeah.

We're shot into Israel. I mean... Yeah, well, I mean, shout out to the Iron Dome. But my only two things, Pat, and I've said this before, is our troops getting involved in a war. I don't want no Americans to die. And number two, the scariest part are... Okay, all that's happening over there, right? We have over, that we know of, 350 people on the terror watch list in this country. What pisses me off is those guys, especially that guy that...

That terrorist that was like, soon you will know who I am. Soon you'll know my name. This is happening there. They can't touch Israel. So guess what they can touch? The United States who are allies with Israel. That's the scary part that I think people need to worry about. And you know what? When, you know, wait, Turkey? No,

Narrow it down. You're talking about Erdogan? No, I'm talking about we support Israel. So we're basically allies with Israel. Israel's fighting a war. But you said he can touch USA. You were saying he, he, he. Like a terrorist. The terrorist. He who? The terrorist. The terrorist.

The guy. Inspired by Erdogan? No, no. Tom, I don't know where you... I'm talking about... I'm trying to follow what you're saying. You're saying the guy that crossed the border. The guy that crossed the border that said, soon you will know who I am. And the countless other... I mean, we're saying we know that there's 350...

I think there's way more people on the terror watch list that we just led into the border that they're seeing this war happen. And guess what? They're anti-American and they're going to do something to America to hurt us here because they know that they can't touch Israel. That's my point. Okay.

We're talking about the Middle East. Let's hone in on Turkey right here. Now, Turkey is a part of NATO. They're an ally. They're also, are they part of BRICS now? I don't know what, I can't put my finger on what's going on here. You know, are they half European? Are they half Middle Eastern? Like they sort of have this bipolar thing going on. But PBD, you know, they also have a strong military. They have a decent economy. What's your take on what's going on in Turkey and then to a larger context?

what's Turkey's relationship with Iran at this point? Well, let me just show this here. Okay, Rob, it's going to be tough to find it, but if you can find it, I typed in to get data on military versus military. Okay.

So Turkey has got the number one military in the Middle East. This is an article I found here. Yahoo wrote this article that goes back to Turkey has 2,231 tanks, 355,000 people, aircraft, fleet, submarines. They're strong. Number two is Israel in the Middle East. Okay.

But it's not, they're not number one, they're number two. For Erdogan to say, you know, the language, like, it's such a, I'm actually, honestly, I'm actually kind of surprised by this position to say,

You know, he directly compared Israel Prime Minister Netanyahu to a government so he stopped. Netanyahu will stop in the same way. And then he says, terror and genocide in Gaza reached Lebanon, expressed concern that Israel could eventually target Turkey. What do you mean Israel could eventually target Turkey? You're number one. Okay. And by the way, the reason why Israel still hasn't announced and, uh, uh,

that Armenian genocide, Assyrian genocide happened is because they want a decent relationship with Turkey. They don't want to have issues with Turkey. So that's why they don't recognize that the genocide took place many, many years ago. So now you want to say this, by the way, Netanyahu, this is a perfect time to come out and recognize that the Armenian genocide took place. This is a great time for Israel to come out and recognize that and say, hey, this event did take place because what he's saying about you guys, right?

What he's saying about you, like that is a perfect timing on a position to take with this. But here's the other question that I have. Here's the other question that I have. Sometimes if you're not too careful, let's just say we're at a bar. Okay. And, you know, Rob gets into a fight with a guy and it's against a guy that we can't stand. You can't stand this guy. And,

You want Rob to beat up that guy because that guy holds the entire bar hostage. The girls are shaking. They're nervous. It's not a good place. So, yeah, I want to see Rob kick his ass. And then Rob decides to leave the bar. Okay? Now Adam shows up. Typical Rob. Hang on. Rob decides to leave the bar. He says, no, I'm not going to finish the job because I got to go to work. Adam shows up. You hate Adam. You're not a fan of Adam. But Adam is capable of beating that guy at the bar.

And saving those people at the bar from being held hostage. Do you understand where I'm going with this? Now you're kind of like, well, no, F Adam. Leave those free people alone. No, no, no.

It's kind of like when America was about to cause Iran to fall because of all the criminals in Iran that run that country, the people that have made billions of dollars, the amount of wealth they've created, one of the families has $100 billion. Some say $200 billion of net worth because the money doesn't flow through them. It stays at the top. But the moment Israel is getting close to causing Iran to have a revolution and a potential revolution,

you know, falling of a, a, an organizations that's destroyed Iran since 1979 when the Shah fell. But now, no, no, Israel's a bad guy. Yeah. They can't take those guys out. See, that's the part where for somebody that lived in Iran, if I'm at the bar and there's a bad guy, that's making it terrible for everybody else. Get, by the way,

I can't even say it, but I'll be able to say it next week. I think I'll be able to say it. Yeah, I'll be able to say it next week. I can't say it. Rob, I can't say it next week. I can't say it right now. Sometime next week. Sometime next week, I'll tell you guys. And anyways, if I can't go visit Iran today for many reasons, why is that? The last time I could go do it freely and not have to worry about anybody telling me don't go, don't go, don't go, the year started with seven.

Where can I go right now? What changed? Why are people so afraid? Why don't you go? It's a beautiful place. It's a beautiful history. It's got a rich history. You should go to Esfand. You should see what's going on over there. Why not? So this is the part where I... Listen, I understand...

Being incredible negotiators, I understand having people, I had McCarthy here yesterday and we played a clip about Thomas Massey saying everybody has got an AIPAC guy because the interview with, what do you call it, with Tucker, right? I understand all of that stuff. But at the same time, do you believe the Iranian people are better for the empire to fall?

That answer to the question, yes, no, you say it. Two, second question will be, if Hezbollah and these people fall, do you care who does it? You understand the question I'm asking? Or are you so tied to a country, a community that you can't stand that you don't want them to do it? You would rather have somebody else do it. Who cares who gets the mission done? It's like a father who wants...

Hey, son, you got to stop quitting smoking cigarettes. It's bad for you. Oh, dad, be quiet. What do you know? And then you come and talk to him. And you say, hey, you got to quit smoking cigarettes. You think so? Yes. I'm going to quit tomorrow.

And then my son goes on TV and says, I quit cigarettes because my uncle Vinny came and told me he quit. As a father, I don't give a shit. He gets the credit. He quit. So that is the confusion that we have right now that we're falling for the mob kind of recruiting us. And it's unfair and all that. Of course it's unfair. It's unfair that that missile accidentally fell on that guy.

What was that all about? That's unfair. Life is sometimes unfair, some of the stuff that's happening. But if he, if Netanyahu, who is not a liked figure in Israel, he's at 32, 33, whatever the number is, if he gets the job done of Iran going through revolution...

You can say whatever you want to say about the guy. In his legacy, he's going to be the guy that made Iran fall. If he pulls this off, just so you know, if he pulls this off, okay? It's almost like a Churchill moment. So you brought up 1979 right now. So who was the president in 79? Jimmy Carter, I think, turned 100 finally. I think that's questionable, but go ahead. And then Reagan steps in and famously made peace through strength a thing.

So PBD, you know, you have a thing that you do at PHP called train the trainers. Yes. There's also another thing that we should be recognizing in the world. It's called bully the bullies. There's bullies in the world. Now, the problem that I'm seeing is like the poking the bear, the bullying. Iran is a bully. They're bullying their neighbors. They want to spread their terrorist regime tentacles all over the Middle East. But what happens when you bully the bully and you stand up to bullies is

The bully says, holy crap, we're actually losing here right now. And what's happening is the United States does a great job of bullying the bullies all around the world. Now, I don't want to get into foreign wars and get basically messed up in nonsense for years and years and years, but don't get it twisted. Israel is standing up to bullies. Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, the Iranian regime, they're standing up to bullies. But people, let me ask you this, as a businessman who's a capitalist, put your mind in the Ayatollahs right now. It's a weird question.

Full-on business question right now. You've just spent the last 40 years... You're playing a joke. It's a little bit inappropriate what you're doing, but go ahead. I'll play along. You spent the last 40 years funding a project. You made a massive investment. Billions of dollars. You pumped it into a group called Hezbollah. You pumped it into a group called Hamas. And all of a sudden, your investment...

went down the tubes yeah now you've coined a thing not roi return on investment you've called the thing called itr yes investment time return yes if you're the ayatollahs yeah and you've just spent billions of dollars funding these terror regimes and now they're decimated how are you looking yourself and you're looking at your warlords at this point two phone calls yep you're making two phone calls you know what your two phone calls are what

to Putnajie. Those are two phone calls right now. Hands down. What do you guys need? You want oil? Come on, come protect Isfahan. Because Israel's about to go after Isfahan. And if you've never been to Isfahan, Isfahan is like, it's Athens, history, Acropolis, right?

And like at that level, have you ever been to Acropolis? What's Acropolis like when you go to it? You just feel it right when you're in Acropolis. Damn. Yeah, I've seen it. You go to certain historic places where you're like, do you know what happened here? So Esfahan, if you type in Esfahan, the city...

- Good luck, Spahan. - They're gonna go after Isfahan. I-S-F-A-H-A-N, I think it's Isfahan. - This is in Iran. - This is one of the most beautiful cities, yeah, right there. This right here, the history of Isfahan, look at that. The history of Isfahan, what they have, but it's an oil city, refineries. They could go after here, they could go after Abadan. The Khameneis have to call Xi and Putin and beg for help.

They beg for support. So what do you need? And right now, those guys have the ability to negotiate a contract with Iran for oil, for whatever they want, because Iran desperately needs help because it's getting that close for their empire to fall. So trust me, they're having a phone call right now with Putin and Xi. If they haven't already done it for the last. I don't disagree with you. There's another perspective here. So number one, does China want to get actively involved in a war in the Middle East? They don't do that.

But Russia does. We've seen what Russia's done in Syria. Forget about the millions dead in Syria, the millions dead and what's going on around the Middle East. Millions. Don't worry about that. Let's put that under the rug. Forget about that. But here's actually a tricky conversation. You ready? What's the reason that Russia may not be able to give more missiles to Iran? It's because Russia's fighting a war.

in Ukraine. And there's actually some issues going on right now where Iran has already asked Russia, hey, we need more drones. You need more missiles. They're like, nah, we need them. I need the ones I'm making. It's almost like America is doing the proxy with Ukraine and they're using Ukraine to say, listen, we don't have to fight this war, but if it takes us

a hundred billion dollars or whatever it is to keep Russia at bay so they can't fund other regimes like Iran. It's almost, it's the jacking for position. The enemy of the enemy is my friend thing that's going on in the Middle East. Weird situation. By the way, if it goes the way it's going right now, Israel's pushing what he's pushing right now. Now,

Netanyahu is doing the job of what Trump would have done for a couple years, for a year. The moment Trump gets in, if Trump and Netanyahu are doing what they're doing together, Iran's going to be done in the next four years. Can you believe that, right? Like it's possible. Like you're feeling it for the first time. No, I'm at 60%. If Trump gets in and Netanyahu continues the way he is, Trump and Netanyahu collectively can dismantle Iran. Do you think that would be good for the world? There's no question. And by the way, when I mean dismantle,

I don't mean dismantle the people. Let me tell you, go and hang out with an Iranian family and see how they treat you. See how they feed you. See how they serve you. Yesterday I had a conversation with an old executive, Goldman Sachs. I won't mention his name. People know who he is. Him and I had an hour call together when I stepped away yesterday with the whole Ritz-Carlton training. I had a great call with him. And his father used to be a colonel under the Shah.

And, you know, I don't want to get, because then I'm going to give away that. Anyways, he was very connected. And we had this conversation about the culture of Iranians. Mm-hmm.

I mean, it's such a beautiful thing, man. Such a beautiful thing when you sit down and you talk to them and what they've done and the impact, positive, the impact to the world. They're not the problem. The problem are the people that are using the money that's being given to them, that's not going through to be invested into something

They're communities. And who's thinking about tourism of going into Iran right now? Zero. Who? And we should be thinking about it. I want to take my family to Iran. You want to go show them all the histories from back in the days of what happened. This is the Persian Empire we're talking about, that we're missing out. Like, you know how, as a kid, I never saw Michael Jordan play. Big regret. As a kid...

I never saw Michael Jackson perform. I would have liked to have seen Michael Jackson perform. I don't know if you went to his concert. Tom, did you ever go to his concert? Yeah, I was working for the Dodgers, and they had the victory tour. Remember that? And he was reunited with his brothers, and there were seven nights in a row, and I actually worked it. Yeah, that's sick. It was amazing. It was amazing. I've never experienced that, right? I would have liked to experience that. The same is like if you have the resources and you're a traveling man like...

You don't take your kids to show them Athens. You don't take your kids to show Iran. You don't take your kids to show France. You don't take your kids to show certain parts of the world. They got to see it, right? So I want the world to have access to it. So I don't think it's a bad idea for it to take place. Did you see what Bibi said to the Iranian people? Yeah, I did. I think that's very important because number one, you bring up a massive point real quick. Governments are not people and people are not the governments. The Persian people I meet, by the way, every person I meet from Iran and Iranians,

I meet them all the time. They'd never say I'm Iranian. I say, they say I'm Persian. So why do you say that you're Persian? Because the glory in the history of the ancient Persia is a, is a beautiful history. Yeah. Okay.

okay just like people from china are not the ccp just like brazilians are not lula there's just like mexicans are not the new lady they just signed it just like every american is not a pide like the people are the people but the ancient civilization of persia in iran it's a beautiful culture and they're hijacked by this guy and something's going to change all right well we'll see what happened let's go to the next story here

Next story I'm going to go to is housing turnover rate hits lowest. And then after that, we'll go to the Diddy story. So housing turnover hits lowest level in 30 years. Let's see what this story is all about. So lowest in 30 years. Tom, I'm going to read it and I'm coming to you. The housing market has hit its lowest turnover rate in 30 years, but just 25 of every 1,000 homes changing hands in 2024. According to Redfin, this is a 37% drop compared to the pandemic buying frenzy in 2021 and 31% fewer homes

Then 2019, which was non-pandemic, elevated mortgage rates, record high home prices, and political and economic uncertainty has caused potential buyers and sellers to take a wait-and-see approach. Redfin noted that despite more inventory than last year, listings are still far below pre-pandemic levels. Scott Harris, associate broker at Harris Residential Team, noted that while lower mortgage rates are making buyers very enthusiastic, sellers are hesitant to move due to

More than 60% of mortgages being locked in below 4%. However, Harris added that as rates slowly drop, the market is becoming more attractive for sellers. Tom.

This is the latest in a really sad story for mortgage brokers and realtors. The industry, the mortgage industry is trying to say, oh, things are okay. It was up 25% year over year. When you hear those percents, what it really means is you're up from next to nothing to now a little bit more than nothing. And right now, what this means is that

The houses used to sell 25 out of a thousand houses is what's selling right now. This is horrible. You had years where we would have a hundred out of a thousand homes would sell trade hands. Somebody moves out or moves to a bigger house in that city. Somebody buys their house.

And this is just showing how bad it is. But there's hope coming, but it's going to be coming slow. It's going to take probably another two years. I reached out to people I know in mortgage markets and analysts. I talked to Bruce Norris in San Diego two days ago and asked him. And he said, look, buyer interest is as high as it's been in three years, even though the interest rates aren't back down to where they were three years ago. The interest is there.

And people are getting enthusiastic, but inflation has wiped out the down payments for many middle Americans, number one, so they don't have the down payment to go in. And number two, the people that are in those other areas and us in Florida, we know how it works. People have to be willing to sell their house in New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania before they move down to Florida. And right now, Florida homes are...

or more expensive than they've been, and it takes, and we all know what happened to home insurance, more expensive, and therefore if your home's expensive, then your property taxes are up, and suddenly it takes a heck of a lot more income to even afford the house.

So the turnover rate is just showing how bad life has gotten for people that are in the industry. And it's still going to take about two years coming out of this. There's a couple bright lights, interest rates coming down as a bright light. And if you go take a look at the, um, home builder index, Linaire, Toll Brothers, things like that, you are seeing stocks that are doing very well because there's never been more, um,

Over the last decade, right now we're at peak building, believe it or not. But the building's going to take time to catch up so that there's enough to supply new homes. And the new homes are further from city centers.

They're in the more suburban areas, which means, and we're going back to work, let's work from home. So there's some things here. It's still not the perfect time for people to buy unless you're in a region where the prices did not spike so much and you've got the down payment now with the interest rate around 5, 8, 7, 5, 6, and 10%.

And in eighth, you have an approachable situation where you can actually buy a home. So the question is, should you buy a home now or not? Right. So you ever see like two guys where they're like going to get in a fight and it's like, what's up? You want to go? And the other guy goes, yeah, what's up? We just want to go. And they just do this song and dance. What's up? What's up? And they just keep going back and forth. And you're like, is someone going to do anything here? And you know what happens? Nothing. That's what's going on in the real estate market right now. You know, is it a buyer's market? Is it a seller's market? It's...

I don't even know. There's no deals going on right now. This is the lowest, what? The lowest turnover rate in 30 years? So there's just no deals going on right now. It's like, hey, do you want to make a move? Do you want to make a deal? It's like, no, because the sellers don't want to sell because they don't, where are they going to move? They're going to go basically get a higher interest rate. They're at basically 3%.

whatever it is, then they got to go sell their place and move into a what 7% interest rate. That math doesn't have moved to Florida and actually cost them more for the place that that's downsized over what they sold in the Northeast. And so everyone's doing the math right now. And they're like, well, I wouldn't do this if I can get it. Well, the interest rates, you know, what are the, what's a current 30 year fix? 6.9.

15 years, 6%. Six and a quarter for good credit. Good credit. Good luck to Americans who got good credit. Not that many. But I just don't think there's many deals happening. We see all the time, you know, the mortgage guys that were making a million bucks a year. They're like, yeah, I'm looking for a new job right now. It's the wait and see. You said this yesterday in the BDC meeting. What's the phrase that I use most often? You remember you did that? And you're like, we'll see.

We'll see. That's what's going on in the real estate market right now. You've been looking around for a place. What did I say? Go get smarter. Smarter about loans, smarter about neighborhoods, smarter about HOAs. I told Pat about this. Did you guys know the income required to afford the average house in the United States from 2020 to 2024 is? In 2020, Tom, it was $53,679. Guess how much it is in 2024. Take a guess.

$121,398. Well, Rob, I just slacked you a chart. So mind you, millions of illegals are provided by the government with money from our housing. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Show this chart to Pat. This is very important, Vinny. Show the chart. Show the chart. And Pat, look at this. Robby, can you make that? Just four years ago, you're saying it was what? It was in 2020. Zoom in to the right. Zoom in to the right. Right there. Yeah. So 2020 bottom. That doesn't mean anything, Rob, if I can't see it. There you go.

So four years ago, to buy a house...

I needed to make how much money you said? So it was $53,679 in 2020. In 2024, it's $121,000 to afford a house. And this chart is the income housing gap. But what is the number, the $121,000? It's not on this chart. It's not on this chart. But this is the house sales price income ratio from the 84 to 2020. So 2020.

Income needed to buy a house. To afford an average house in the United States of America. To afford an average house. Average house. Where did you get those stats from? Give me the exact income. It was $53,679. $679. To afford a house. To afford an average house in the United States from 2020. And then in 2024, it's $121,000.

So here we go. So I just found it where in 2020, okay, Rob, if you want, because this is very, very... That's a lot. No, it is. I've not seen this article. I have not seen this. So Rob, pull up the article I just sent you. It's the Zillow article, if you could, Rob.

And maybe the numbers are a little bit off, but they're right there with each other. So this article here tells you, zoom in a little bit, homebuyers need to earn an extra... By the way, this is eight months ago. Homebuyers need to earn an extra $47,000 more in 2020...

To buy a place. So the income needed to comfortably afford a home is up 80% since 2020. While the median income has risen only 23%. That additional 57% arbitrage. So those shopping for homes today need to make $106,000. Again, this is eight months ago. Comfortably afford a home. Mortgage payment on typical house.

Nearly double since 2020. Pittsburgh, Memphis, Cleveland are the most affordable markets. There we go. Let's move to Cleveland. That's what we should do. Sell the property. Households in California need to make the most money to afford a house. Home shoppers today need to make more than $106,000 to comfortably afford a house. According to Zillow,

In 2020, the average income was $59,000. Bidenomics. Let's go, baby. Let's go. Four years. And there you go. So the house price goes up. So as soon as you buy it, your property taxes are up. Then going to insurance, you have to pay more for insurance just to insure it. But the insurance has inflated 20%. And now once you live in the house, all the groceries and stuff, the electricity and cable TV is up 30%. Yeah.

Tom, just saying all that makes me want to vote for this past four years. I'm voting for Kamala Harris and waltz. I call it the American scream instead of the American dream. And what percent of Americans even make over a hundred grand? That's a great question. Less than 20. 15%. Okay. So especially younger people, millennials and Gen Z, the people under 40, you have one big problem that you're facing. If you want to buy a house, it's called math.

The math just doesn't add up. You're not making enough to buy a house. You can't put enough for a down payment. The interest rates aren't there. Housing is... The average price of a house is at an all-time high. What? $450,000 right now? The average person is making $50,000. You got to make $120,000 in order to buy a house. Why do you even need a house? Go rent a room with a roommate. Like, the math just isn't adding up, especially if you're younger. And this is why we just saw...

turnover rate, AKA people even selling their houses is at a 30 year low. There's no inventory. There's no supply. The demand is high, but you can't afford a house. Like there's no deals going on right now. So just rent and chill and save that money and pump it in the stock market. It works for other people.

Well, I mean, obviously we're seeing what's going on. This number is real because it's either property value is going to go down, which is not. Income is going to go up, which if it does, everything else that has already gone up in inflation is going to go up even higher. Profit is going to go down. People are going to get laid off. The knobs, there's only so many knobs to play with here. Yeah, this number does not add up.

The 23 and the 80 is what doesn't add up. How do you make up that 57%? Really though, how do you make up that 57%? It's lower rates, lower value, increased income. That's the only thing you can do. Or the only thing that the government can do potentially is subsidize first time home buyers, right? Help people start families. You see, starting to see these things like childcare reform because the reality is that

younger people in America, you cannot do what your parents and your grandparents did. If you actually want to be wealthy and successful, you can't, the math isn't there. You can't just go buy a house, work for the same company for 40 years, pay the mortgage down, have the two car garage. You don't make enough money. It's just the numbers aren't there. So you have to do things differently, but there's an opening in the marketplace. There's opportunities. And this is where people are going to come in and take advantage of

arbitrage yeah let's talk about the next story so Diddy Rob if you want to pull up this video this video was being played everywhere on Twitter yesterday and a day before everywhere go ahead and play this clip

This individual who was nine years old at the time. No, no, Rob, play the clip like the whole thing, that how many people have called. You're just going to one of the situations. If you just go on Diddy Lawyer on Twitter, play the main clip that says how many calls you just got, because that's the one I want to show. Yeah, let's start off with that, and then we'll go to that specific one. Yeah, I think it's whatever the main one is. Click on one of them, see which one it is. Okay, go for it. Real quickly, before we close here, about some specific instances. Without...

disclosing the victim's name, you probably know that depending on the age of the victim, you can file these cases, these individual cases under Jane Doe or John Doe. Rob, this is in it. I'm going to read the story. If you can do me a favor and find one that he says, they got 3,000 calls and they got, I want you to find that one. Let me just read this here. So Diddy's list of accomplices to be revealed in a new lawsuit. Okay. In a new lawsuit. Okay.

So in this story, this lawyer comes out and just drops the bomb on everybody. Tony Busby revealed that a list of Sean Diddy Combs' alleged accomplices will be released in a new wave of lawsuits involving 120 victims. He promised the names will shock you. The day will come when we will name names other than Sean Combs, and there are a lot of names, he emphasized.

We're going to make damn sure, damn sure that we're right before we do that. The lawsuit covering incidents dating back to 1991 involving alleged of sexual abuse, many related to Combs at his infamous white parties events allegedly involving drugs. Busby plans to file cases across several states stating we will leave no stone unturned to find all potentially liable parties. Combs currently detained after being denied parole.

Bill twice says emphatically and categorically denied the claims, calling them false and defamatory. Even his lawyer gets up, Diddy's lawyer, and says the reason why he's got 1,000 baby oils is because, you know, when you go to Costco and there's discounts, that's what he was doing, and people are supposed to believe that. Save that money, Diddy. You've got to do what you've got to do. We all do that. We all go buy 1,000 bottles of baby oils. Go ahead, Rob. I've got three in my bag right now. Go ahead, Rob. Our team has had at this point –

More than 3,285 individuals contacted us with people claiming to have been victimized by Sean Combs. After vetting, we now represent 120 individuals who intend to bring civil claims in civil court against Sean Diddy Combs.

Did you hear those numbers, by the way? We had 3,000-something calls. After vetting, we now have 120 sources. So meaning even the lawyer was like, 90% were lying, looking for a payday. That's not what he said. That's not dismissed. But the 120 he's taking could have text messages, videos, or validating evidence so that there's really a case.

If you went there and you were partying and you got drunk and something happened to you and you don't have physical evidence, you didn't have a rape examination, then you don't have a case. You only have a terrible memory and you shouldn't have been there. By the way, a lot of those people are victims too, but they have nothing that they can present. The 120 that this guy goes, he's guilty.

usually they've, as they say, has the evidence stacked up to make it a compelling case. Because remember, the judge will also filter these in saying, okay, tell me about number one, number two, number three, number four. And if the evidence isn't there, they get tossed because that's what you hear. The counts go down. That's how Trump,

you know, got, you know, his, his case is reduced to New York where a fair minded judge, you know, in federal court finally said, this is a fricking mess. There's nothing here. Goodbye. Let me tell you what I learned about Diddy. I was like, let me do some research right here. And I stumbled upon this. Oh,

amazing panel interview on Pierce Morgan with none other than our angry patriot Vinny Oshana doing his thing. And they're having this conversation with yesterday, I believe is what it was. I did it last week. Okay. You know, you're that famous. I can't keep in track with you these days, whatever it was, but they said, you know, there's a diddy party and then a after dark diddy party. Yeah. And then a after dark diddy party, you freak off. Yeah. Because I've said it, I've been to a diddy party, like,

I can't wait to see the videos. No, listen, in Miami, there's Star Island, there's Hibiscus Isle, there's Palm Island. You get invited to these things, these parties. Dude, 300 people are in line to try to get into these parties. But there's a big difference between getting into the island, getting into the house, and then going upstairs to the freak off. I'm going to stay outside. So who knows what's going on upstairs in the basement with the cameras, what's going on.

Vinny, what happened with all this lotion? What's going on with all that? Well, first of all, the fact that Pat made a great point that even Costco was like, yo, we don't sell baby oil in bulk. We ran out. Which gets to the point where people now were asking about it. That feds, whatever. Let's see how they investigate it. What was actually in those bottles? Because it could have been drugged.

Bro, you think it's just clear liquid. It could be roofing. It could be whatever. Nobody's drinking the bottle. No, I'm saying how do you know what the hell was in there? But my point is, so Jaguar Wright was on Piers. I'm happy that you brought it up. But she said she was one of these sex workers. She was a dominatrix. And she said about those freak off parties that she claimed that sex workers were hidden inside.

hitting cameras on their persons, Adam, on their bras, on their underwear, on their stuff. And there was disturbing satanic rituals. And me and you know somebody, Adam. I'm not going to say names from a guy from Hollywood. But according to her, she said young girls were stuffed into suitcases, Pat, and later discarded in freaking alleyways. This is how disgusting these people were. And she also implicated Jay-Z, saying that he had hundreds of victims ready to come forward, connecting him to a sinister web that ties together Diddy,

Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein. And she claims that Diddy was a product. She said this, a product of the mogul Clive Davis and Lucien Grange who taught him everything he knows. And Pat, we were corroborated with that story with Suge Knight. It's bad.

And when you hear nine-year-olds, this is a really long clip. Who's this? Oh, no, this is a short one. This is them talking about the suitcases. Who is this? This is Jaguar Wright. And she is who? She's in the hip-hop game. She's a freaking rapper. She was one of the combatants in the free call. Yeah, you can play that. The sex workers that I have worked with throughout the years and continue to work with even to this day have worn hidden cameras. Oh, damn. I have my own tapes. She has her tapes. Yeah.

I've seen what they do, the ritualistic behaviors, the drugging, putting girls in suitcases, dumping them in alleyways. It's horrifying. And it's all done under the protection of this is going to be paid off. There's another NDA. This is going to be—it's terrible.

Little too much to me. Little too much that it's almost like, you know, you have to be very careful. You have a story to tell. If you have a story to tell, you get invited to a podcast to tell a story, and that thing goes viral. And then you go and do 20 podcasts of telling the same story, they go viral. Then you notice they're no longer going viral because you're saying the same thing. And then afterwards, you're like, man, I got to make a comeback. Then you create new stories.

And new stories. I had Gianni Russo on the podcast many, many years ago. Some of the stories he told me, he says, one day I was in Iraq and I'm sitting there with Saddam Hussein and we're having this and I'm sitting at a stone and I go to Cuba and I'm there to do something. Dating Marilyn Monroe. Colombia. And he's telling me this and Pablo's people are about to kill me. And he says, wait a minute, are you the guy from Godfather? Come bring him home. We had dinner and one time I was sitting down having a conversation with the Shah and one time I was 14 years old. Marilyn Monroe and I were hooking up for three weeks.

Yeah, and I said, Johnny, in the interview, I said this to him because he's that entertaining. Because sometimes people are telling stories like this. You want to hear it anyway. Yeah, let me go. I said, if less than 10% of what you're telling me is true, you've lived a crazy life, right? 10%. If 10% of what you're telling me is true. Rob, do you have the clip? Which clip is this, by the way? So this is...

This guy's name is Jamal T. Millwood. That's I'm sorry. That is. I did not think Jamal. That's his pen name. His actual name is Chris Todd. He is the guy that claims that he released Kim Porter's book. Did his ex-girlfriend. Yeah, the one that was died of pneumonia. She wrote a book that then died before the book was published. This guy put this book out. Oh, wow.

earlier last month. Now, her kids, Kim Porter's kids, claim that he didn't have access to the book, but this guy claims that there are tapes of high-profile A-list celebrities that were having sex with Diddy and with underage kids, and those tapes are currently being shopped around Hollywood. I did hear that, too. If you want to play this. Go ahead and play this.

There's a claim that Kim Porter kept copies of Diddy's alleged sex tapes as leverage. What evidence do you have to support this narrative? The tapes. So you actually have tapes. I'm not going to do a fully comment. Let's just say there's tapes that exist. Well, let's ponder around that. The investigators in the case that is now filed. Yes. Right.

say that they're in possession of tapes, they can actually confirm that there are tapes as well as baby oil, as well as all of the other things that they found. And so with that, we do know from that perspective that the DA involved in the case that Diddy is now facing. The federal government. Yes, the DA and the federal government have tapes. Attorney General. And so my question is, there's a claim that Porter kept copies.

of and this is in your book yes that she kept copies of diddy's alleged tapes as leverage right and in making that it would be assumed that you would or the possession of those kids yeah you know about them um and like i said what evidence you just asked you have to support the narrative yes there are tapes that exist the tapes yeah now you admitted it okay

By the way, you can pause this right now. I also have the victims, if you want to hear the clip of this is Tony Busby, the attorney, listing the ages of some of the victims that were allegedly assaulted by Diddy. This individual who was nine years old at the time was taken to an audition in New York City with Bad Boy Records.

Other boys were there to audition as well. All of them were trying to land a record deal. All of them were minors. This individual was sexually abused, allegedly by Sean Combs and several other people at the studio in the promise to both his parents and to him himself of getting a record deal. Another instance.

Another minor told allegedly by Sean Combs that he would make him a star, but he needed a visit with him in private about it away from his parents. Once they were in a private area, allegedly Mr. Combs made the victim perform oral sex upon him. Another incident.

An individual 15 years old at the time flown to New York City to attend a party, was drugged and then taken into a private room, allegedly in the presence of Mr. Combs, where this

female individual minor was raped and then other individuals took turns right let me if i say one thing before if if god forbid this is true and it comes out in light in court and these people come forward and it's corroborated

Did he better literally watch his ass the entire time he's in jail? Because you guys know how those guys treat. He may like it. Watch his ass. No, actually. To make light of it, he probably would like it. Well, they're going to kill him. There's unusual codes that are in prison.

And I've read about the horrors that were in the California system. And there was a Mexican gang, also known as the South. If Ricky Aguilar is listening, he can talk all about this. He's talked about all the things that go on and how the gangs control. But there's something that happens in prison to pedophiles. And it's that the...

you know, Catholic and Mexican gangs do not tolerate the pedophiles. You do not live long in prison. And that is an absolute fact. So all the Diddy stuff, it's actually starting to make a lot more sense right now. You know, bad boy records. They also started going by dirty money. You know, whether it's Diddy, whether it's Puffy, whether it's Brother Love, you

We're starting to see the writing on the wall was basically going on. Okay. So everyone thinks of him and Biggie and all that. All right. Well, who knows what happened with that? But then as he went independent and he sort of went more the producer route than the musical act. Do you remember that he started the show making the band? Yeah. It was all just young kids in New York trying to make the band. Then he started a girl group called Danity Kane. I just remembering all this because I used to listen to hip hop 20 years ago.

I want to know what those girls have to say, what those young people have to say, because everyone's talking about the Meek Mills of the world, the Justin Bieber's of the world, the ushers of the world. Okay. Those are the people who quote unquote made it. What about the people that never made it? Maybe they're in the 120. What kind of incidents do they have? What kind of things do they want to say? By the way, you know, everyone talks about Kim Porter, who I guess he was married to for a while. That's the mother of some of his children. Right. And then, um,

What was the girl that, uh, he basically, uh, Cassie, Cassie, unbelievable. But the girl he's been dating for the last three years is a girl called young Miami conveniently located down here in Miami. Yeah. Uh, I want to know what she has to say because she's been around him more than any female in the last few years.

All this stuff is going to come out. All this stuff. This guy is finished. Everything that, just like that, everything you create, every record, every group, every hit, every deal, every money, every monument you've ever done, it's finished. Allegedly. Watch this at a charity event. Look what he does with David Beckham. He offers $150,000 for this event, and you have to see what he says at the end. Go ahead, Rob. Okay.

Being that I don't spend a lot of time here and I don't really know the crowd, if you win you get your choice of one or the other. Choice A is a weekend at my house in the Hamptons fully staffed on the water, East Hampton, New York. Number two is a studio session with me in New York or London. I'll produce a record for you or your kids.

Or number three is a night out with Diddy Saturday night in New York. And I promise you, yo ass will wake up Wednesday

Lay it beside me. Lay it beside me? Let's get them in the start of this. I'll start with 25,000 pounds. I have 25, I have 30. Wow, and you wake up next to me. I have 50. By the way, hiding in plain sight. I have 70. 80. You want 90? 90?

Yeah, yeah, no, you just pay. Three nights for you, Sharon. Three nights. Three nights. Full room and board. Another thing is unlimited. If we become friends, you can stay for a long time. This is just a start. This is just a start to raise money for the kids. We didn't even talk about Miami. We may go from the Hamptons to Saturday, New York to Miami. You may show up a month late.

100,000. 100 right there. Gordon Ramsey. Mr. Wayne Rooney. Me and you, baby. Greatest soccer player in English history. It's a showbiz marriage, baby. You can pause it right there. This is...

This is some of the stuff that's going to be revealed. And these are nothing. These are just signs, right? But if anything leaks with celebrity names that all of a sudden comes out...

It's going to break the internet. You know what kind of conversations are happening between celebrities right now. You know how many conversations are going on. Name a name. Ashton Kutcher. LeBron James. Oh, yeah. LeBron James came out and gave the non-answer non-answer. Yeah, he said, don't even bring up my name. I don't want to talk about it. I don't know if that's true or not. Can you verify that? Because Snopes said it didn't actually happen. It was just a...

What do you call it? Yeah, don't go on Twitter. I thought it was a go type in LeBron James Diddy.

Yeah, I thought it was that one right there. Answers reporters' questions. Take that, take that. Close that. It's a question about the free coughs. Go a little lower. Fact check to see what it says. False. Okay. Ron James said he prefers not to speak about that. They're saying that never happened is what they're saying. September 24th. Well, even if that's false, what I'm sure is very true is all these people have been around and they're all having conversations. I don't know if they're using Telegram or WhatsApp these days, but they don't want these conversations to be seen and they're all lowering up.

What's this video right here, Rob? This is LeBron at an alleged ditty party. Listen, just because someone's partying and having a good time, there's 0% anything wrong with that.

It's when you start to do the shady illegal stuff behind the scenes. Oh, yeah. And that's the whole thing. And Adam, having a good time at a bar is not a big deal. But imagine those people that know, Pat, because I know we want to move on. Imagine the people that know now they're famous as hell. Now there's footage. Oh, my God. Wait, you mean these people that we were having sex with?

had cameras and he had cameras, people are panicking. And if you're one of those people, the witnesses, their lives are at stake because you don't understand who is the top of the top. Who the hell was there that doesn't want you talking? Now they know that you know that you know that they know. They know that they know. Let's go to the next story. So Trump demands apology.

from 60 Minutes for dismissing Hunter Biden laptop before doing another interview. Think about that. 60 Minutes wants to do an interview. He's saying, nah, I'm good. Is this it, Rob? Yes, sir. Go ahead and play the clip. Go ahead.

CBS is saying that you have pulled out of a planned interview on 60 Minutes. I'd just like you to address that report, and if you indeed are not doing the interview, explain your reasoning why. Well, right now I went to-- they came to me and would like me to do an interview, but first I want to get an apology, because the last time I did an interview with them, if you remember, they challenged me on the computer. They said the laptop from hell was from Russia.

And I said, it wasn't from Russia, it was from Hunter. And I never got an apology, so I'm sort of waiting. I'd love to do 60 Minutes. I do everything. I mean, I do you right now, right? I do you. Right now. 60 Minutes, frankly. The laptop from hell was from Hunter. It wasn't from... So I haven't gotten...

If you remember Leslie Stahl. Leslie Stahl. I have that video. I sent it to Rob. Talking about that and other things. And, you know, they really owed me an apology. I'll tell you, David Muir. How about David Muir when he said that crime went down? So I like to get an apology. So I've asked them for an apology. Let's see if they do it. I wouldn't mind doing 60. I've done 60 minutes a lot. I did 60 minutes twice with Mike Wallace, the great Mike Wallace. He was great.

His son is from a different ballpark. I said, you want to be like your father? Just don't have the talent. Who else, please? Brother, because that was the last. I mean, dude, I love him. Good for him. Good for him. Punch. But I just love for some reason. In any other circumstance, if you have to fight fire or fire, somebody talks crap to you. You talk rap with Trump. It's like, hey, we could do whatever we want to you. The moment he sticks up for himself. It's like, look at it. Look at it.

Look how bad he is. And that Leslie Stahl... When Trump does that, you know what? I have mental images of Mike Tyson getting a guy in the corner of the ring and just continuing to bump him. The guy's trying to hold his elbows tight, hold the gloves up and everything. And Tyson at middle age, not when he was young. When he was young, it took 90 seconds to destroy your head.

But you just boom, boom, boom. You know what I mean? Yeah. And the person can't get out of the corner. It's just enticing. Just sitting there working the ribs, working it, working it. And he just keeps adding. And then your father, brother, you had less talent in this different ballpark. And Rob, this is bang. I said, Rob, I send you two of them. I think the second one, Rob, is where he tells that Leslie's talking. Biden is in the midst of a scandal. She go and she's like, no, he's not. And he's like, they spied on my campaign, which they did. And she just won't give in. This is it.

And he's walking with an ice cream.

And the question the media asked him, "What kind of ice cream, what flavor ice cream do you have?" And he's in the midst of a scandal. He's not. And he's taking... Of course he is, Leslie. No, come on. Of course he is. It's the biggest, second biggest scandal. The biggest scandal was when they spied on my campaign. They spied on my campaign, Leslie. There's no real evidence of that. Of course there is. It's all over the place. Leslie, they spied on my campaign and they got caught. Can I say something?

You know, this is 60 Minutes. And? And we can't put on things we can't verify. You won't put it on because it's bad for Biden. We can't put on things we can't verify. Leslie, they spied on my campaign. Well, we can't verify that. It's been totally verified. No. It's been just go down and get the papers.

They spied on my campaign, they got caught. No. And then they went much further than that and they got caught. And you will see that, Leslie. And you know that, but you just don't want to put it on the air. No, as a matter of fact, I don't know. So why would you? So seeing that, that wasn't even... And Rob, I love that one.

The other ones, the Biden Hunter laptop, which was it's 100 percent a fact. Why would you want to sit with them to hell with them? I wouldn't sit with them ever. Nobody. No more interviews. I think they're going to apologize. Yeah, absolutely not. Mid-fall. No, they're not going to. I want to know. So Trump, the art of the deal.

I'll do the interview. Need an apology. Yeah. They're like, all right, who do you want to apologize? I want you all to apologize. I want a big, beautiful letter and an apology with it. I'm sorry. And everyone needs to sign it like a birthday card. Everyone needs to sign it. Good. They're like, are we going to, who's going to sign it? No. I want Leslie. I want David Muir. I want all the losers.

I'd want the head. I'd even know how the negotiation for the apology takes place. We know one thing. If Trump wants to do the interview, he'll do the interview. But one thing's becoming so clear with Trump. He has the Trump two-step. It's the way to give praise but also shit on you in the exact same sentence...

Mike Wallace, what a great guy. Best interview. You're his son. You're a piece of shit. Everyone knows you're a loser. You'll never be like your father. What a great talent. What a great interview. Unbelievable. I'll do the interview. Need an apology. Your apology ain't good enough. You're a loser. Wait for the apology. It's a beautiful thing. By the way, the chances of them apologizing is going to be slim to none. If they do, good for them. If they do. They're not apologizing. But at the end of the day,

You need money. You're running a business. You need eyeballs. By the way, just so you know, the apology will get tens of millions of views and ratings for them and the interview. So you're going to get two big ratings if you do the apology and you do the interview with Trump.

Both of them are going to bring you a lot of subscribers and money. That's what 60 Minutes should do. And it's the right decision. And it's the right business decision to make. Whether they'll do it or not, who knows. But I'm going to go to the next topic. See what you guys think about this. Kellyanne Conway believes Trump should debate Harris again. Play this clip, Rob.

Oh, it's such a clutch off-season pickup, Dave. I was worried we'd bring back the same team. I meant those blackout motorized shades. Blinds.com made it crazy affordable to replace our old blinds. Hard to install? No, it's easy. I installed these and then got some from my mom. She talked to a design consultant for free and scheduled a professional measure and install. Hall of Fame's son? They're the number one online retailer of

Ryan Reynolds here from Intmobile. With the price of just about everything going up during inflation, we thought we'd bring our prices down.

So to help us, we brought in a reverse auctioneer, which is apparently a thing. Mint Mobile Unlimited Premium Wireless.

Speeds lower above 40 gigabytes each detail. I know you, and I just believe when you see the end of the week,

Are you going to let that be the last word of presidential debates of this season and of your career? Are you going to want one more? So I'd rather debate. I'd rather have another one. The problem is we're so far down the line. And also, I had a three on one debate the last time. So I debated Biden. And I must say, CNN was very fair.

And then I had the other bait and ABC was totally crooked. So why not have another? Because they agreed that they weren't going to do. No, but here's the thing. And I like debating. And I thought I did a great job. I thought that was one of my best debates. But it gets spun and spun. It's so crooked.

I thought it was one of my best debates. And they said I'm the goat of debates. I think I've done really well in debates, okay? People are saying I'm the goat. A lot of other people. A lot of other people. It's true. But what happened is ABC totally violated their agreement. And this guy, like, was debating me. But why let that be the last word then? Because, number one, we're winning. Number two, it's very late in the process. You know, the people are voting already.

I would like to do another debate. It's the same. I'd like to do more than one debate. The problem is it's late. They turned down the Fox debate. And don't forget, I had two debates. I had to beat Biden. And then I had to beat her. And the one with her was very late, too. And then we had a fake news organization. Terrible ABC. The worst of all is ABC. I've always said it. That's why they wanted ABC, because they had to deal with ABC.

But I said, I don't care if they do, because it doesn't matter. Hey, look, I took on three people, and a lot of people say, I think I won the debate. I think the expectations for Harris were so low because everybody sees her in interviews. But I just want to say that she wasn't great. She's one for one. She was terrible. You've had seven of these debates, and I feel like you're Shohei Ohtani. I feel like you can pitch, you can bat. And people just want to hear, I think, that last 5% that is decisive but elusive right now.

Maybe wants to see the two of you together. Look, part of the problem is this. I think she brought her only game. Part of the problem is this. CNN wants to do the debate. And CNN was very fair. And they got killed because they were fair. And Biden was out of the race because of that. You know, if we didn't have that debate, he'd be running now instead of her. And honestly, I think he's actually better than her, which is a pretty bad thing to say. But he's better than her. He wasn't.

CNN will go out of their way. Don't do what ABC did where they have, you know, three and one or five on one or whatever it is. So I don't think you can get a fair shake. Even if you didn't. He's right. Should he do another debate? There is no need to do another debate. No, absolutely not. No. Why? He made a good point. At this point, he's starting to surge. I'd love to see one.

Should he do one? There's a difference between you'd love to see it. I'd love to see a Titanic. That was a good movie, but he can't do part two. I'd love to see a, what do you call it? Notebook two. I'd love to see a lot of movies part two, but do you think that...

there is, he should do a part two. No, he's already, he made his point. The early voting already started. You know what? Before you, you know what I would do? I would agree to do a debate if it's just a last minute sprung up, no planning, no whatever, and it has to be on X. Yeah. If it's not on a major network, I would do it. I would do it and surprise them. That's not going to happen, Vin, but

Should Trump do another debate? The answer is abundantly yes, and I'll tell you why. So the question is, do you think Kellyanne Conway wants the best for Trump or wants the worst for Trump? The best. Okay, so she's on Team Trump. Yes. So she didn't really give any smoke signals there. She's like, do another debate, President Trump. He's like, well, I don't know. I'm good at debating. She's like, you should do one.

And she kind of snuck in. By the way, Kamala's one for one, a.k.a. she won. But you're like Shohei Ohtani. You can do it all. You can do seven. You can do this. She's full on saying either directly or indirectly, hey, knock, knock, Mr. President, you lost the last debate because you said they're eating the dogs.

And that single-handedly lost you the debate that you should have won. Because the first 75% of the debate before the eating the dogs comment, he actually won. He was winning. It became one of the greatest rap songs of all time. Just so you know. They're eating the cats. Who let the dogs? No, no, no. It's actually a song that went. Okay, so you don't think he. But do you think he should do another debate, PPD? Okay, Tom, do you think right now he's ahead?

Yes. By how much? On a national basis, two to two and a half points on a national basis. He's definitely ahead in Pennsylvania by about three and then North Carolina by two. Georgia is very tight. Arizona, he's up by as much as five in some polls, but I'll hold tight with three and a half. So when you've got that map,

This thing can be over by 1130 on election night with Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia. If those go by 1130, it's over. So why, if you're playing from the front and you're incrementally improving, why do you need to do it? She needs to debate, which is why she's asking for the debate. That should tell you all you need to know. The challenger wants a rematch because they want the money.

Okay, so let me ask this question this way. Do you think she will be so desperate to want the debate that they'll go to Fox to have Bret Baier do the debate? They won't. No, no. Her handlers will not let that. They want the debate, but they won't let that happen. Okay, so then let me ask another question. Do you think they'll be so desperate that they'll go to do something on X or a social media site debate hosted by a friendly...

you know, host moderator by both. The Dems are not, if they were smart, that would open up a lot of exposure and eyeballs to a lot of people that are not watching cable news. We know cable news is an older demographic and it's losing ratings. So if you really want to get to the independency and decided and, and the middle voters, why wouldn't you go to that? That would be a, if they really need another debate, uh,

I would be more likely, if I was her advisor, to say you should do it on X. You should go out to go into the water you haven't been in yet and go find those voters. So do you remember Trump's first ever debate in 2015, the primary, Republican primary, his first ever debate on stage? I saw all of them. Okay. The first, first ever, if you look at it, he was breathing hard.

And if you go look at the first ever debate he had with Hillary Clinton, the first 20 minutes, he was breathing hard. You could hear it. That happens. By the way, nothing wrong with that. J.D. Vance was asked a question afterwards. He says...

They asked me, they said, oh, J.D., did you see how nervous Tim Walsh was? And it was so, you could tell he was nervous to go up against. You know what J.D. said? He was nervous. I was nervous. He says, I just hit it from you. You understand this is the biggest stage of my life? I was so nervous. The fact that he didn't sell it was good for me. I thought everybody could tell I was nervous. So what's he saying? I respect that, J.D. I respect the fact that he's being human. But the point here is, the reason why I'm going with this is,

some players you go up against, you don't know their style when you fight them the first time. You don't know their style when you play them the first game. This is why the Astros are out and the

The Baltimore Orioles are out, and they both should have won. Baltimore should have beaten Kansas City. You know, what do you call it? Straight up. Astros should have beaten the Tigers, and KC's now going against the Yankees. Why? This is because of the best out of three you told me yesterday, right? 2-1, 2-1. Yeah. Or 2-0, 2-whatever the number was, right? Yeah, they beat them 2-0. It's only a best of three. Dangerous little series. You can't go in cocky. I think he will make the right adjustments if he goes to it.

and he does it, and he will destroy. The only thing I would do is, if I'm a handler on the inside, I'm choosing the two or three that I'm willing to agree to and say no to everything else. You want it? Only here. You don't want it? No problem. We're out. That part I agree with, but I'm more from the school of thought of only the paranoid survive.

And you're assuming there's not going to be any other surprises coming the next 33, 34 days. He's always going to do better if he's going to do a second debate with the individual, not the first debate. That's my opinion. But again, I may be wrong. We'll see on November 5th. And by the way, it's exactly why November 5th, we're looking forward to spending that night with you. Okay. At the new headquarters. What?

With the hangar being open, God knows how much money we're spending on this party. By the way, the bathrooms alone to rent, they're like 30 grand. I saw it. Each AC we're putting in the hangar is $12,000 AC. The tents to put up there, the AV to put up there, the budget for this thing went from a... I saw the budget. We start off with the budget being a $200,000, $300,000 budget, and then it bloomed up into this whole other budget, security, all this other stuff.

Cops are going to be there. Security is going to be there. Snipers are going to be there for protection, all of that. Anyway, that night, there's going to be a lot of conversations of what America is going to look like 2025 and on. If there's a place to be on that night, we believe it's in Fort Lauderdale at our new headquarters. Having said that, gang.

It's been a blast hanging out with you guys. Rob, today is what? Today is Thursday. Yes. Tomorrow we have a podcast going out. Yes, we do. Do we know which one it is? It's Solomon Friedman. Oh, no way. The guys that bought Pornhub. Yes, sir. Oh, my. By the way, Rob.

After it was done, what was our, what we thought before what happened at the end, how would you rate that podcast at the end? Oh, I mean, it was a 180 degree flip from what we went into and then what we walked out of. It was crazy. Well, you did a lot of research on that. Hours of it.
