Did you see the Tucker Carlson interview on Full Send?

Speaker 1

00:07

Yes, I saw. I didn't watch the entire thing, but I saw a few clips of it when he's talked about how much he regrets supporting the war in Iraq. That's what you're referring to?

Speaker 1

00:15

Yeah. Yeah. And I believe him. I think he really means it.

Speaker 1

00:17

I believe him sometimes, you know, sometimes there's people like there's like John McCain types Who go like, you know, they'll it or Hillary Clinton. They'll admit Okay, it was a mistake But then they still support every subsequent war after that and they know It doesn't see whereas Tucker is like I'm so ashamed that I supported this I'll never forgive myself for it and has opposed every subsequent war after that and I'm like, okay

Speaker 2

00:40

I think this guy really believes it he's different than people want to pretend he is first of all the guy was a deadhead Yeah, you know, he's just follow the dead around.

Speaker 1

00:51

Yeah, so for sure dropped acid. I That'd be my guess.

Speaker 2

00:56

I would How else can you enjoy the music? I think it's legally required that you

Speaker 1

01:02

take an acid at least once if you're gonna enjoy the Grateful Dead. I'm not sure I don't know. I think that music comes

Speaker 2

01:08

alive to LSD according to my friends who've been there and done that

Speaker 1

01:12

it's it's really interesting what the the public perception of Tucker Carlson is, or particularly how polarizing he is to people that it's almost like you're there describing a different person than he actually is. I think he was the most interesting person in cable news the most thoughtful most intelligent like he was really he I don't agree with him on anything, you know on my On my podcast we used to do a segment Where was this it was I just done it so many times that we started joking about it being a segment that we called Contra Carlson because I was just disagreeing with him Like he had all these economic ideas that I completely disagree with and I disagree with a lot of stuff he said but he was like Such like the the lone voice in like really the corporate press who was completely opposed to the military and ducks industrial complex completely opposed to big pharma and all of the kovat insanity it was really good on like speaking up about a lot of really important issues, issues that you would think a good leftist would at least appreciate that he's good on that issue. And some of them did.

Speaker 1

02:24

This is what, he's the guy who's having Glenn Greenwald on his show. You know what I mean? He's the guy who's having Aaron Matei and Jimmy Dore. These aren't right wingers, he's having them.

Speaker 1

02:32

A lot of left wingers. And it was very interesting. He wasn't a partisan. He would be completely against the Republican Party was viciously critical of the Republican Party hates the Republican establishment And even the stuff I see I've seen so many people be like, you know, he was he bought into Trump's Claims that the election was stolen and I'm like, I don't know dude Do you watch him because I watch his show and that's actually not he was The guy he took a lot of heat from this from right-wingers that immediately following the election of 2020 He really aggressively called out Trump's lawyers Rudy Giuliani and a Sidney Powell I think was the other 1 because they were making claims about the Dominion voting machines that they flipped millions of votes And Tucker Carlson went on his show and he goes, okay, if this is true, it's the biggest story in the history of the United States of America.

Speaker 1

03:27

So what evidence do you have? And he's like, we have reached out privately to the Trump's lawyers. We've gotten nothing in return So to be clear, they're making this claim and providing nothing to back it up He really was like no no now what he has said later is they'll be like the poll quotes and be like yeah but he referred to 2020 as a scam or something like that And it's like yeah, but you don't watch his show so you don't get that like what he was saying was yeah The Dominion vote flipping thing is bullshit No one's ever provided any evidence of that but the fact That big tech and the intelligence agencies work together to undermine the hunter Biden story to get Joe Biden across the finish line is Bullshit like that.

Speaker 2

04:09

Yeah, you

Speaker 1

04:10

know what I mean? That's a scam and he's that's a completely reasonable position to take again It's just you know, like look at this dude. Don Lemon is out at CNN, right?

Speaker 1

04:20

I promise you, whoever replaces Don Lemon has the same exact views as Don Lemon and the same exact views of everybody else at CNN. And that's not true for Tucker Carlson. There's, At least there was a guy out there who would disagree with the rest of the people in his network. Disagree with both political parties.

Speaker 2

04:39

He's really designed for the internet. I hope he goes there. He's going to.

Speaker 2

04:43

Unless they've paid him off. If I was a person in a position of power in a wild card like Tucker Carlson got released from Fox News and maybe rumble makes a deal with him or something like that do you have any fucking idea how big that would be how big a show It could make that that app it could make that that platform. I mean if Tucker Carlson goes over there It'll be worth it for them to invest a considerable amount of money But if I was Fox News, that's the last thing I would want So I would make sure that we have him locked up for the entire term of some contract, some no compete and pay him off. You'd be better off just giving him the same amount of money he made when he was on the air.

Speaker 2

05:26

And then

Speaker 1

05:27

I wonder... And then

Speaker 2

05:27

you would have him opposing you.

Speaker 1

05:28

I wonder what he's already under contract for. You know what I mean? Like there may already be some clause in his contract that says you know if we leave There's X amount of time.

Speaker 1

05:36

I don't know

Speaker 2

05:37

you know fucking Fox News man. They're smart. Yeah, not stupid although very shocking Seeing him leave

Speaker 1

05:43

yes I was I was surprised Although in high school 1 of those things were like I was surprised right away and then like 2 days later I'm like, how was he ever even there? Like how this guy was on the 8 p.m Hour at Fox News saying the CIA killed Kennedy like how did how was that ever a real thing? You know, it's

Speaker 2

05:58

like it's a that

Speaker 1

05:58

it's insane he was like it But what's crazy to me is that so many progressives have like... It's like invasion of the body snatchers or something. Is this the real you, man?

Speaker 1

06:09

Have you just been replaced with an NPC? The 8pm hour at Fox News is saying the CIA killed Kennedy. That's not interesting to you? That's not like something, I'm not saying you
