[Assistant] But the radiation levels were now too high for them to approach the plant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A team of American nuclear specialists who'd just arrived in Japan were fearful that TEPCO and the government had run out of ideas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That day, frustrated at the lack of information the prime minister was giving them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A third hydrogen explosion had exposed pools of discarded radioactive fuel to the atmosphere.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These spent fuel rods were still highly radioactive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the pools boiled dry, they could catch fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the contamination could be even worse than from a reactor meltdown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Japanese prime minister ordered a desperate tactic. Dumping water on the spent fuel pools from the air.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first crew to take off knew that Soviet pilots who'd done this during the Chernobyl nuclear accident had subsequently died of cancer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An earlier reconnaissance mission had been abandoned because of high levels of radiation over the reactors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tungsten plates were now bolted to the helicopter to protect the pilots from gamma rays.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The crew knew that they had to drop the water on the move from 300 feet. If they went higher, they'd miss.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they went lower they could receive dangerous doses of radiation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The world watched the mission live via a camera placed 20 miles from the plant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Other helicopters followed, but the wind was too strong for accurate aiming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The United States government began to draw up plans to evacuate 90,000 of its citizens from Japan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They advised all Americans to stay at least 50 miles from the plant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Japanese evacuation zone remained at 12 miles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] U.S. surveillance now suggested that there were flakes of deadly radioactive fuels scattered around the reactors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This meant that anyone who approached the plant would be risking their lives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Japanese government ordered a team of Tokyo firefighters to get water into the fuel pools by any means.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the radiation he was exposed to meant he couldn't accompany his men on their mission.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The plan was for the firefighters to park a truck by the sea to suck up water.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unique footage filmed that night from the front line of the nuclear disaster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] ...shows the firefighters preparing to approach the reactors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They gave themselves 60 minutes to complete the mission. Any longer would expose them to excessive radiation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Within minutes, the route was blocked by tsunami debris.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the firefighters withdrew, radiation levels at the plant began to fall. The men started back for Tokyo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With radiation levels lower, TEPCO seized their chance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The hundreds of workers who'd been on standby headed into the plant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their mission was to lay miles of pipes that would channel a constant flow of water into the reactor cores.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They had to work fast in case radiation levels spiked again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stepco now says most of their dosimeters were washed away in the tsunami, but that they ensured each group of workers had one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the pipes were laid, a steady flow of water at last started to cool the reactor cores.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After days in fear of dying, the workers in the control center began to feel hope.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Weeks of difficult and often perilous work lay ahead. But the most dangerous phase of the crisis


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The prime minister was later forced to resign, accused by his critics of mishandling the crisis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tepco faces having to pay tens of billions of dollars in damages. The company is on the verge of bankruptcy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The workers who battle to save the plant face an uncertain future. None of them have died from their exposure to radiation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But more than a hundred received doses which increased their risk of developing cancer in the future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the weeks after the tsunami, the bodies of his wife and father had been recovered.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But his youngest daughter, Yuna, was still missing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Four months after the disaster, Norio is traveling back to Fukushima.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An exclusion zone is still in force for 12 miles around the plant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of these districts are contaminated so badly that they will be uninhabitable for decades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The evacuees from Norio's village are holding a ceremony for those who died in the tsunami. For Norio, it's a chance to say farewell to the family he had to leave behind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow, I don't understand why it didn't work before and it worked now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once again, we're still, we're looking for that first comment in the chat just to see if we actually are live. And as soon as we are, then we're gonna know that everything's okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boom. As soon as I see yo in the chat, I'm just like, oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, definitely not. Why? What do you think that the chat could potentially say to you that would uh, upset you or like, reveal your insecurities to the world?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow. Yeah, that's pretty bad. And also, it occurs to me that like, you know, okay, we could have a hundred different black dudes come in here and get on stream, but as soon as they realize that it's the kind of dude who's gonna get offended by them saying something racist,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, they just figure it out immediately and they're just on it. And we even have like a bot to like prevent like racist language and stuff. But man, they still figure out ways to say racist stuff. So if anybody feels like talking down on you due to your Caucasian heritage,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have a display? Oh, you have a bulletproof vest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, totally. The funny thing is, is that right after the second gunman ran in the other day, I interviewed Haha Davis and he was wearing like a fake fucking bulletproof vest that realistically would not stop a bullet. You're hot though? Or you're cold?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, there you go. I feel that. Wait, do you watch Silicon Valley and you're like, this is, this is it. This is where I grew up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hacks of players on... I guess you could probably explain it better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's an extra, extra layer of satisfaction on top of it. Wait, so were those the first YouTube videos that you made or have you been doing this since you were like super young?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I definitely think that the people out there want to and deserve to see this content.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we take it for granted that like, you know, if you met somebody tomorrow and they had some goofy YouTube channel and they made some weird content and maybe it's not even that popular, but they're doing what they're creative or passionate about, you're like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit man, that's cool. Or at least that's how I am. But you forget that when it comes to like 12, 13 year old kids or whatever, if you're doing anything that goes outside the lines of what's normal, they are just so eager to tear you apart over it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What kind of music were you making at this point in your life when you were that age?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Parodying rappers in general is a very good way to get views. Exactly. It seems.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you had the sandbox and that's the kind of beautiful thing about being really young is that everybody expects you to be an amateur and stuff. So you could sort of just like work on your, on your skill set within those confines. But you know, that's interesting when you say that because there are a lot of things that have popped up, popped up that,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the, that adults maybe wouldn't necessarily feel comfortable, but the kids embrace it so much and they're all like early stages of how to be a rapper, like the covers thing, the parody thing, the, the fan page thing, like fan pages are like young kids.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because you know, those kids usually like who are running those things are super young. They maybe don't even have enough of a life to really run an Instagram account that's interesting yet. So it's like they're taking someone else's life and sort of living through them. I found that super fascinating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the end, I like shouted him out, and then I immediately was like, fuck, I'm never shouting out a fanpage again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, yeah, but I mean, you know, these things happen. And also, well, I just want to say also that there's a rapper who's coming out right now named Lil Nas X, who's kind of blowing up. And he, and he was a fucking admin on a, on a Nicki Minaj Facebook fan page up until he got signed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is amazing. Okay, so you were in the sandbox, you were sorta playing around, just like working on your craft and everything?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what's funny? My employee the other day said that there are no words that rhyme with his name and his name's Yuri. And I was like, Yuri? Flurry? Fury?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like fucking sweet potato puree. I'm like, I could say that in a way, in a weird way and like make that sound. I'm like, I could think of like 10 words off the top of my head that would maybe not essentially 100% rhyme, but they effectively rhyme.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, close enough. But that's interesting because when I watch those videos of you like imitating all these different rapper styles, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was kind of like the impression that I was getting is like, wow, this is a dude who seems like he learned about like how to rap at a really young age in a really unconventional way. And then you really like studied the structure of it so that you were able to sort of like replicate people's flows because I've never, I've never seen a video like that where somebody just like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yeaah, that was a lot of the early process. Did you find yourself drawn towards any particular style or rap at that point when you were that age?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, I don't know that much about OMFAO, but I'll take your word for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know some girl that's like married to the singer from Alameda, or like some girl we used to hang out with, I think. My friend was telling me like, oh some girl that we know is hanging out with that dude now, or some shit like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably jack shit. Probably wondering why they used to be in a band called LMFAO.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I deserve to be corrected on that, so if anybody in the chat wants to let me know, like, what is lacking in my, uh, LMFAO understanding, cause I mean, shots, shots, shots, shots, I mean, that is important. That's a lot. Every time I take a shot, I have to sing that. Okay, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, that's good. It's good to always be in agreement. Like, every- that's one conversational tick that I notice that a lot of people have is like, they agree even when they don't agree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can say like, I totally agree, or that's a really good question, and then you start saying something that's completely separate from their question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. I think about this shit too much. Uhm, okay, so you're studying rap and everything. When did you actually start like, uh, making, well, you were making rap at that point or?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You believe in a god, you just don't believe in any like characteristics about it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I read that book. What was it? The religion of the founding fathers or some shit?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, like I'm an atheist, but I, you know, I, I have kind of like a scale of how, uh, offensive I find everybody else's beliefs. And it's like the idea that like, oh, somebody created the world and then sort of left us. It's like, okay, that's, that's fine by me. What I get offended by is the idea that there's like a God who's actually like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's pretty chill. I think that the whole thing is that it takes a lot of courage to admit to yourself that you don't know shit about the world and that you have no right to or that you have no


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Intelligent reason to be trying to guess, uh, what happens to you after you die, et cetera, et cetera. That just, that has never really like sat well with me or it never seemed like a good use of your time, I guess.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got you. So when did, throughout all your years of, uh, doing the, the online gaming content stuff, did you experience any degree of success? I noticed that some of those videos have millions of views now, but were they popular then as well?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I mean, that's kind of a crazy criticism because it's like you're a kid playing video games on your computer. It's like, sorry, guess who else was playing video games too? Like Kendrick Lamar was playing video games. You're just lucky enough that he didn't have a channel where you could watch him at some point, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but that, that's fucking hilarious too because especially cause there's, there's such a precedent for that now. Like YBN is a gaming crew before it was a rap crew, you know, which I think is amazing because to them and, and nobody even talks about it. Nobody talks about the fact that none of these kids are from the same place, that the tie that binds them together is the fact that they were playing video games together and now they're out here just, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Getting in fights in the street and stuff. Hey, they learned how to fight playing Grand Theft Auto.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably. Uhm, okay, so when did you, but when you say you had some successes, like you knew what it was like to get a million views on a video before you even started putting your rap stuff online, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you were making songs about soccer basically at one point and then you just sorta got like a small following from that and then transitioned?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And having that perspective, because if you just first got in the game, then your perspective on what is going on, like you just need those years. Like even for me, like the first video game that I actually like really paid up close attention to what was going on with the YouTube, uh, ecosystem with it was Pokemon Go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everything about seeing how the YouTube ecosystem unfolded around that game was so fascinating to me. And now like when Fortnite comes out, I can kind of like, even though I'm not playing Fortnite, I can see the same thing happening and like these different characters developing and then watching the game sort of shrink and wither away and other games pop up. Like, I find that almost more interesting than actually playing the game because when it comes to games,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm kinda just like a simpleton and I love playing Tetris 99 and I just don't know if I'm ever gonna find a game I like more than it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so yeaah, I don't know, but I, but that's like one thing I always say just in terms of general advice to kids is like, if you could start embedding and immersing yourself in the thing that you're passionate about at a young age, even on a very, very basic level, then that's just going to gear you up and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, get you ready for what you might be able to do earlier or later on in your life. And especially with someone who seems smart like you, like you are clearly like paying attention enough that you're not just like seeing shit happen. You're also like understanding that there are these cycles of things that are happening and that those are things you can learn from, which a lot of people don't necessarily make those connections.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I mean that, that is how I see my whole career as well because of the fact that I was in the BMX world making vlogs and making podcasts and updating a blog and you know just developing relationships with people in the industry and everything like that and I feel like I actually like learned


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, like, that's kinda why the video game thing is good, is because if you're a young kid, you can make video games, you could be, or you could play video games, you could be a streamer, you could do whatever, and you don't even have to show your face, you could be a fucking weird ass 12 year old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dude, it's so crazy to me how young kids just have that built into their head that they, like my fucking friend's, uh, kid, she's, I think she's three, he, he had, uh, he left his phone around her the other day and she fucking set it up, turned it on and started to say like, hello, welcome to my YouTube video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's three and she is like making a fucking vlog without like, that just to her is just natural. Like she will never, she will always understand the concept of how to make a YouTube video like that. Like, that's just incredible to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're eight, you're thinking of fourteen, like holy shit, that's when I'll be a man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my God, that's okay. I knew a girl who her parents didn't let her watch TV, but she somehow like got access to a fucking computer in school or something. And she basically was dating a guy because of an AOL chat room, but it was actually Bam Margera. Like the guy was using a photo of Bam Margera and she didn't have TV, so she didn't know who Bam Margera was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So she thinks she's dating this like super cute boy, and it turns out it's just some guy using a picture of Bam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The internet, they're taking in so much fucked up shit that they don't have the brain power to understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That it's sarcastic or that this is shit that you don't want to emulate or that this is shit that you only get to do when you're older and everything. You know, it's just like, there's so much bad shit that a kid could potentially take in that I feel like God, I would, I'm going to want to be so careful with my kid on the internet and I know it's going to be so hard, especially because of just the type of person I am.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I used to upload videos of just fights and I would just make money off of them and I didn't think there was anything weird about it. And then one time I uploaded a video and I got the video removed by YouTube and they were like, uh, some of the people in this fight are underage. And I was like, oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was the perspective of your school on your rap career at that point? What did they think of it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the numbers probably stood out enough that like the kids in your school were like, hey, that's a, that's a real thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a weird way, like other white kids are going to relate to you more, but then at the same time, the one thing I noticed with white kids is that it's really hard to be taken seriously as like a tough guy or whatever. Like whenever I see


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] White rappers, and they're all tatted up, and they're trying to act hard, and they're like super gangsters, fuck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bro, it never works. Like, you can't think of a white rapper that fits into that category that's actually popular. Even somebody like, like G-Eazy. He doesn't, he's not trying to act hard, he's not trying to- Action Bronson. Action Bronson. Right, but he doesn't act tough. Like, even him, he'll be like, you know, I'm just a fucking guy. He plays the, the nice, the nice, regular charismatic guy. You know, when you think about somebody like 21 Savage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you imagine a white 21 Savage? I have a hard time imagining a popular rapper that is like a white guy who's doing the stuff that 21 does.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Talking about guns, you know, being hard, talking about drugs, whatever. It's like, it's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a thing that hasn't really been crossed over. White rappers usually have like an element of, you know, self-deprecation, of comedy, of humor, of making fun of themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a good skill to have, because that took me a long fucking time to realize that I needed to like really care about not just what I'm doing, but the effect of what I'm doing and how people are going to take what I'm doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some of them are people I've been around for like 10 years or even like my girlfriend, I've been around her for like two and a half years. She's just not going to let me like fly with any bullshit if I start acting big headed or I start acting like I'm so great, I'm so cool, whatever, like they're just not going to let me get away with that. If I do something, they're going to be honest with me about it for the most part and everything. But then I think about like, if those people were removed from my life,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then I'm basically stuck with a bunch of people who are fucking fans. And that is a fucking weird position to be in because if they've already decided that they think you're the shit, then you can't trust them about anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, that's a weird position to be in. And then when you look at rappers and stuff, when they're 30 or they're 25 or some shit and they've already been through a bunch of different groups of friends, they've completely lost their old group of friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then what do they have? They have fucking fans that basically become their interns and then that's like the extent of their like socializing is that the only people that they're so self-absorbed that the only people that they can stand to be around are people who act like they're a god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cardi is kind of a meme right now in the sense that people really do like his music, but then the sort of meme is to act like he's like the greatest musician. Okay, so what is it, and especially coming from someone who is just into like Eminem and shit, what, how would you describe how strongly you feel about Cardi?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's like, you know, like, like when I think about Die Lit, like I listened to it when it first came out, I was kind of whatever on it. And then to be honest, I really haven't like given it the re-listens that it probably deserves because it didn't like immediately catch my eye. And the thing that's making me feel like, oh, I should just like listen to it a few more times is the fact that everybody online keeps talking about it so much, which is kind of weird.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But people wanna know about that. When did the KSI thing become part of your narrative?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're established. Yeah, I was established. But when you're in that gray area of like, you know, two, three, four, five, six hundred thousand subscribers, you're not looking at somebody with ten million subscribers and thinking that they definitely know about you. Yeah. Exactly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Because if he says you're great, he's still not, what's he going to do? He's not going to fly you out and make videos with you or anything like that. But if he says you're great, then you never want to diss him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it hits close to home because you guys are both like gamer slash rappers. Exactly. So it is not that many people who fit into that category.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's funny that to us as YouTubers, the idea of taking a whole day to make a video sounds like a long ass time, but there's so many people that think that you need to spend like weeks working on some shit, like, when it comes to like a YouTube video or a rap song, like, if you're taking, like, I don't know anybody who spends more than like an hour or two making a rap song.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was your mentality going into it given that you didn't actually have a problem with KSI but here you are in the position where you gotta make this compelling diss track about him? Like what was the angle that you decided would be the most effective?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think that he might have been low-key giving you the opportunity to make a song about him? Like he was low-key setting it up, like here's your opportunity if you want to take it, pussy, and if you don't, then okay, good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kinda weird from his perspective because he was already so big that when he started doing the rap thing, it was kinda like, if you're already mega famous for something else and then you decide to start rapping, it is 100% always gonna come with a big ass blowback to it. Because there's just no way that you can go from anything to rap and not get some degree of blowback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like that though, because a lot of times when people talk shit about me, it really just like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My instinct is not like, oh, let's make some content out of this or like, let's fight back publicly, let's have fun with this. My instinct is always just to be mad as fuck and to just like plan on, like you heard me talking to somebody on the phone earlier and I was just like, we're gonna find him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean that is just where my head goes. It's hard for me to clear that hurdle of being like, no, chill. Make a video about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like I just get mad and I get offended and I get pissed and I just, I really cross that line and then it makes me just want to be quiet about it and never mention them again because also that's the weird thing is that I know if somebody talks shit about me


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That nine times out of ten, if I just don't say anything about them, that it's way better revenge because in reality, if I say anything about them, it's just going to blow them up more and give them way more of an opportunity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that's a perfect opportunity. Somebody way bigger than you goes after you, boom, you gotta go for it. Exactly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like if Eminem said something about me right now, holy shit, like no matter, even if he said one little tiny thing, it's like, oh my god, that's my content for the month because he's so big, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's so funny because last night actually, okay, I did, I saw that thumbnail and I thought about clicking on it, but then I was thinking, I'm like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think that's why so many people were suspicious that maybe there was something made up about the robbery attempts thing because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They just saw that there was nothing negative that came of it for me, but that there was a lot of positive. Like I went and just started doing, I did Drama Alert, I did Logan Paul's podcast, I did Inside Edition, I just started boom, boom, boom, just doing as much media as I can because that's just how I've been taught.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have to get as much media as you can because that's your best way of like getting new people to find out about you and that shit is expensive as fuck. So if you have an opportunity to get it, you gotta just go for it because like, you know, think about anybody with a business is dying to get on TV, to get on the news, etc.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So anytime you can get something viral, anytime you can get anything, you gotta just make the most of it. And yeah, like from, from my perspective, it's like, oh, something,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seemingly bad happened to me, like some guy fuckin' pulls up on me, then okay, I'm just gonna make the best I can out of the situation and just, you know, try to find some good out of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's such a tricky line where you're trying to be like sort of treading the line between being like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeaah, it's like you're constantly dealing with that, that decision is like to what extent do you want to sort of bastardize your content just to get bigger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Logan would have been totally using you there too, like in such an obvious, transparent way. I would actually have really liked to see where that conversation went, but it's kind of funny because it's just so obvious and transparent why he would want to have you on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like Logan too, but I like Mike. Mike and I like are from like the same part of the country and like sorta close in the same age. So it's like pretty, it was weird. We're like relating about all these like old hardcore bands that we know about that like 0% of the audience knows about and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think that's like a shortcut towards getting attention on YouTube by fitting into a certain category?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's a gimmick for sure. It's like, and especially people who, who loves to do the super rap and fast, crazy, multisyllabic shit, but you can't understand anything they're saying. It's like, is it not obvious to you that this is a fucking crutch and you're just doing this so that nobody can tell what you're saying because you're scared of like putting, and that's one thing. Dude, this is a fucking quote. Think about this. I've been thinking about this for like 10 years. Somebody said, uh, so bad that I can't remember who, it might've been somebody in three six. Somebody said,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's nothing harder than slow rap. Because if you rap slow, it's the ultimate test of if you are believable and if your material is really that good. As soon as you start rapping fast, it's a little bit of a crutch that you can lean on because people are going to think it sounds good, whatever, but if you're really like actually rapping slow, there's nowhere to hide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you feel about those conversations you have with labels? Do you think it would be a good fit for you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But listen, like all that stuff is good and everything, but at the end of the day, like if you're thinking about like signing away the ownership of your content in order to get on some Spotify playlists, it's not worth it. It's like you want to have that sort of like longer term build up to whatever you're building towards and like, I don't know. I feel like a lot of people sort of get in this, this crazy rush.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the label puts a tiny little microscopic bit of work into them and they help them out with a couple things, but then ultimately it's like, like you feel passionate about your ability to release music right now. It's like, you should hold on to that because a lot of these dudes who sign, they lose that shit real quick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I go back to that a lot though, I think about like, how would I feel about my life right now if I was looking at myself as a 15 year old. And that always kind of brings me back to reality of like, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're doing pretty good because 15 year old version of you would be very hyped on this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you look at Russ's career, uh, arc as like an inspirational thing just because he's done so much of it on his own and he's sort of, I guess embodies some of the characteristics that you're into in terms of being creative and everything musically?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think Russ has figured out the same thing that like the vast majority of superstars figure out. Like, you know, J. Cole or Kendrick or Jay-Z or whoever is that. It's like, oh, I'm way better off just releasing music and then keeping quiet in between. Cause he hasn't done much media since like the last shit storm and he like stays pretty low key. I think he actually said he deleted Twitter on his phone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it turned the media against him too, because some of the stuff like when he was saying like, oh, complex, uh, complex ignored my emails. So fuck you, I'm not doing content with you now. It's like everybody in the media immediately understood how.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The complex employees who ignore those emails felt because everybody knows that like I, like I could spend all day today like looking at like the 500 fucking emails that no jumper got today. It's like, it's just not realistic for most people. But I think Russ at the end of the day is like a good dude who just, you know, is a little bit expressive, a little bit loud. And then at the end of the day, it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He sort of like dug himself into some holes in terms of like how he's viewed in the media. Obviously it hasn't like completely stopped his career or anything, but I think he has sort of realized that he's probably better off being more laid back and just letting the music talk for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're reminding me that yeah, cause when Russ comes back again with another project, that is going to be like a crazy, like people are going to be very excited to either see him do it or to see him fuck up. You know, like everybody's, it's going to be aw, eyes on Russ. And you're actually reminding me that I got to press Russ for, Russ for an interview on the second go round next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Tyga's comeback was all based on getting some fire beats and making some dance songs. So I don't know, maybe, maybe Russ will go in that direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit. Okay, so, uh, yeah, what, what do you have, uh, coming up in the, in the future that you're excited about and everything, where you're at right now?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's a funny guy and he can rap pretty good too. He actually, we got demonetized on a video of him playing with paintball guns back here. Or airsoft guns actually.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, that's gonna be a wild next couple days on the internet seeing people try to figure out what's gonna happen with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People, it's hard to make people care about the struggle of the YouTuber, because they just don't see it, they don't realize how unfair what's happening to us is, and it's just, something's gonna have to change legally at some point, but, it's fucking nice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You gotta be on all the streaming services, that's true. And even R. Kelly, I think they let him back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean yea, I'm rocking R. Kelly and Michael Jackson for life. If I ever do like DJ sets, I'm gonna have a little, a little section of like them two and 6ix9ine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although I think he was 18 when it happened. He was 18? And that's the whole thing as far as the two is that the girl was 13. The girl was 13? Because at the end of the day, it's like, I believe wholeheartedly that 6ix9ine went into that situation making this video with some girl. I guarantee he did not think about how old she was and I guarantee that if he knew she was 13 that he wouldn't have done it. Like really probably everybody in that room, like who, who on earth in their right mind,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't care if you're from the hood, who is so stupid that they're gonna fucking put a 13 year old girl in her, like naked in a-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] RAP VIDEO OR WHATEVER, LIKE I GUARANTEE T699 KNOW WHAT THE FUCK HE WAS DOING AND HE FUCKING PLAY GUILTY BECAUSE LIKE YOU JUST SAID THAT HE


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He got pressured by the cops and he didn't know any better and I, I do like, I mean he's an idiot because he got into the situation, sure, but at the end of the day people call him a pedophile for the rest of his life over it. Does not seem fair to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then, even after that though, then I had been so used to like kinda saying the same argument that you've been making and like, oh, you know, like you gotta, you gotta be understanding, blah blah blah. But then his baby mama comes out and says that he was beating her and he raped her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, it went kinda under the surface. I don't know, there was like a lot of other shit going on this- that week, and it just didn't really come out, but if you, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, Sarah Malina, if you search Sarah Malina, The Daily Beast, I believe The Daily Beast is the one who got the quotes out of her where she says all this crazy shit about me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, at the end of the day, it's like fucking, I don't know, I just don't get so into the mentality of like, oh, we need to dig into the background of every single person in the public eye and we need to judge them. Like obviously if it's somebody like R. Kelly who seems like he's been like systematically like grooming and just like running this weird pedo fucking empire for all these years, it makes sense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But with the 6ix9ine thing, like prior to the shit that his girlfriend said about him more recently, it's like that always was what they had to go on in terms of calling him a scumbag and it always seemed to me like this is pretty obviously a situation in which he made a bad decision but there was no obvious bad intent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what, all I gotta say about blackface is I'm really glad that when I was in like seventh grade that nobody was like, yo, you should dress like Tupac for Halloween. Cause if someone had said that to me, or if one of my friends was dressing up like a rapper or whatever,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I probably would have been like, all right, yeah, sure, why not? Like I don't think that when I was 14 or 15 that anybody had ever told me like, yo, you can't put brown paint on your face. Like that, that people act like it's so obvious. It's like, bro, that these laws and these rules were not so clearly established until more recently.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But at the end of the day, Shane Dawson's way too big, he ain't going anywhere. You know? They can't cancel him. Like, it's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And for somebody who's sensitive like him, like for me, it's like I say shit about myself all day every day. I don't really give a fuck because I'm just jaded to it. Like Shane, I know him. I know he's a sensitive person. I know that he like goes through it because he does, he cares when he sees somebody saying something bad about him, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had a photo of me naked holding my cat, and everybody was like, Shane Dawson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whatever. Yo, I gotta do this next interview momentarily, so I guess I gotta sorta wrap this up, but uh, you wanna shout out your shit for anybody who isn't sure where to find it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I listened to it while playing Tetris earlier today, so. Did you enjoy it? I did enjoy it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if you could like get suspended from high school for going on No Jumper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yea, how much zans and leans. That was the fucking thing that bothered me about that shirt is that it said like how much zans and leans, not how many zans. But that's the weird thing is that it would be like how many zans and how much lean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, the many and the much are, I forget what the word would be called.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I'm just saying that it would be grammatically complex to phrase it correctly, so I understand what Russ was going through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, uh, for the people who are watching this at home, Pumpin' Out Randy interview coming up very soon and Daylight interview coming very soon. So make sure you turn those notifications on and stay tuned to this channel because this is where we are going to be doing them live.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you very, very much to my man Quideca. You're a very, very smart guy and I'm very, uh, I'm very interested to watch where this conversation goes or where your career goes from here. I was just thinking, I'm like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Man, what if this kid is like logic in like three years? And then we're like looking back at this interview like holy shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's really like getting money though. You know what I'm saying? Really bout the money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of them named Trophy Head, that's like one of the biggest shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everything you can think of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, my mom was playing football one time, and they turned my shit off. That's when he dropped Daddy Sprite, the first one. Yeaah. I was named Greg.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They call me him all day. And I don't look shit like him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they call me Beano, oh fuck a day. That's just how I close with it. Yea, my grandma call me that, hell yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He used to play the instrumentals on that bitch, but he had came up with that little, some little geeked up talent shit. And after he did that shit, then people was telling us to rap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause we had everybody in the city freestyling though. I swear to god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After that, we just got it done and been just saying, I mean, that's all it's got to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I'm saying, like you gotta wake up and find that shit, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So look at that superhero right now for sure. They don't sit that shit though. They sit straight. They sit straight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We holdin' it up, got our back to it. That's what I'm sayin', keep us focused.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm sayin', you see if we rockin' it right now. We the birds and the merch too, matter of fact. You know what I'm sayin'.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I went from the most restrictive place I've ever been to no restrictions at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My legal name's Samuel Cation. I'd prefer to be called Sam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most of my family's been in and out of prison their whole life. Uh, I grew up around this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I first drank and smoked pot about 10 years old. By age 14, I was shooting heroin and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Had already done a couple juvenile sentences.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first time I got in trouble, I got sent to a mental hospital.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I spent nine months in sec by myself when I was 16. That was the worst, you know, it was torture pretty much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would bang my head on doors, cop myself, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty much anything I wasn't supposed to do that I could do with the very little bit I had in myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me personally, when I spend too much time inside my head, it's a dangerous thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They mess with one person and spend the rest of their shift doing cell extractions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Numb as it is, the cell extractions, people cutting up, ITV so to speak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Obviously, being locked up, you don't have control of nothing. And, cutting myself makes me feel in control.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since I came to the population, I just tried to bury myself in programs, but I don't know how any of that's gonna work. After doing all that time in SEG, I'm not a person that likes to talk. It breaks you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I'm inside my head too much, I get paranoid about things and ultimately get depressed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Depression is not a good thing when you're locking yourself 23 hours a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You lose all feelings. You become immune to everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're not the same after spending so much time by yourself in those conditions. I don't get who you are. You don't come out the same person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did 11 months in the Shag Unit. I went from there straight home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tried to tell my mom and everybody, I didn't want anybody around. I got home, there was five people there and I felt like there was five thousand people there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And ultimately for my first couple months I go off on myself and my camper until my mom and everybody tried to explain to me I'm not present. I shouldn't live like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The most restrictive place I've ever been to. No restrictions at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't live with minorities. There's a list of people I can't live with. I am a violent person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This sentence is the first sentence that I haven't spent 90% of my time in and say, I've done a lot of programming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess it's the first sentence where I realize this isn't the life that I want to live. I mean, I've been in and out since I was nine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For somebody like me that's spent most of my life locked up, it's easier to say, alright, I'm going back to prison for however many years, it's not easy to go back to the streets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I definitely think that all the solitary time I've done, it's changed me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe not permanently, but it won't be easy to change back, I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As far as functioning in the real world, I think it's, affect me in extreme ways.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was out for six months and I still couldn't go into Walmart without either being high or having a panic attack.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may just be because I've spent so much time out of the real world, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My honest opinion is because it's, it's because I've spent so much time in a cell by myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like I still carry it, but I don't feel like it's gonna affect me as much as it has in the past.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All I can do is take it one at a time, try to do the right thing and hope that it works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Things unraveled faster than they ever have. I mean...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I feel like somebody's trying to intimidate me, it's like a switch turns on. I'm a violent felon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not somebody that shouldn't ever be left to his own thoughts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Addicts feel that the drugs call their name. I feel that that razor calls my name. I still think that the best thing for me is treatment. Some kind of treatment. Cause I overanalyze everything and I think everybody's out to get me and then I start cutting off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm the convict. I'm the man with the violent record. I cannot turn off the prison mentality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your anxiety, your anger and all that other stuff that comes with sitting in that cell all day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, attitude. Uh, you explained open mindings last week and you touched on it again this week, but tell me how you see open mindings. What is the fault of it? Why is it a problem for you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The entire prison was locked down. That is, every man was confined to his cell to restore order.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We take an event like that extremely seriously.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But at the same time, we recognize, given that we're working with a very high-risk population, the key is not to overreact to an incident like that and change an entire system, or take a giant step backwards, uhm, out of fear. My background is in training as a clinical psychologist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's gotta be about mitigating risk. And to mitigate risk, you need treatment and programming. To have treatment and programming, individuals can't be locked down. They've gotta be interacting. So I think the key around that homicide, which was horrific, uhm, was to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Treat it appropriately, hold the offender accountable, but not sabotage a system that was moving in in an appropriate direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's gonna be mistakes, there's gonna be missteps, there's gonna be major incidents, but I do think it's working. We're seeing a reduction in assault.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the numbers have continued to go down in the SEG unit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also think that we're doing a better job of equipping them when they leave so that they, they have more of a chance of being successful, uh, when they return to their housing unit. But quite honestly, even as a psychologist, I'd tell you that we're never going to compromise safety and security for the staff or for the offenders in the name of treatment. It has to be a balancing act.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are creating a unit where we're putting very dangerous individuals in very close proximity and giving them a significant amount of freedom to interact. Uh, and so uhm, we almost have to be a little bit more on our toes that this is a high risk population.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But there may be individuals that don't make it in that unit. Someone who defies the rules and decides, I don't want to get healthy. And you have to make some hard decisions sometimes that that individual might not be appropriate for that unit and they could find themselves back in segregation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait, go back. I'm not done. Because then Texas was like, well then come and get some panhandle. Stop. You asked. Texas, you passed a what? Gums. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't say that. No, but that's what you should have said, squarehead. Okay, ignoring for now that Florida just had that information ready to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your new bill doesn't require training or a background check? No. That'd be infringing upon their rights. You're just inviting crazy people to arm themselves. Not explicitly. Do any police even support this? We found one that does. Just one. Yeah. The rest hate it cause it'll make their jobs more difficult and dangerous and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're pretty vocal about that. And you're still doing it. Well, you know how only like 4 out of 5 dentists agree on things?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. The fifth one's usually right, according to just me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] California, you seem oddly quiet at a time like this. Yeah, sorry. I haven't been able to speak gun since the 60s. Why not?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you started acting when you were six, and you didn't even have a choice. It seems like, like you just have been acting non-stop and very successfully. Was there something like at five that you wanted to be? Or is there something that you look back now and think, I would do that if I'm not an actress?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we should send you out and do a tape piece of you as a waitress and see how much you enjoy it. That's the next segment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The month of May is a time of transformation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every day you see how nature changes around you. The last signs of winter melts away, and the lake opens up again after being covered under the ice for over six months.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It can be the most beautiful time to experience, and it's one of my absolute favorite times of the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the air smells so good of all the trees and the plants coming back to life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it was actually not until the very end of May that everything came back to life and started to bloom. Because most of this month looked like this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This year the month of May was colder than I ever experienced before. It was snowing almost every day for two weeks and it was freezing degrees outside every night. It felt like the spring took a break until it would be warmer again. Do you like the spring?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the cold weather didn't stop me from enjoying the spring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we have spent lots of time in our garden to prepare for all the vegetables and berries and flowers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And of course, on May 13, we celebrated one year at our beautiful homestead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a really chilly evening. Saturday evening. And it's like minus, minus two Celsius degrees right now. Now it's actually one year since we moved here to our house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have no idea how it feels to see the lake again without ice. So we decided to go down here and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have a glass of wine and celebrate our first year here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're supposed to have your boat. We don't have a boat yet, but you really would love to have, you know, a little boat so we can go out. What are you doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So as you can see, there is a boat here, but it's not our boat. Hinajili, are you also checking? What are you doing, miss?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought we were gonna have an evening without the kids tonight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I often do that as well. When something is so beautiful or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, cheers. Cheers. Cheers for the first year. Cheers on you guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are just gonna go to our house now. We just got the keys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's still hard to believe that we actually live here. That this is our place, you know? That we have this beautiful place by the water. And we have the whole summer ahead of us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So nice. It's gonna be the best summer in our lives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It feels like summer today. So it's Saturday morning today. It's May 30. So we are in the very end of May now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or actually it was the coldest May in my entire life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least what I can remember. So the spring took a long time to really arrive this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has taken a really long time for things to bloom and get green.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How do you say, it's like you can feel the energy of everything just opening up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Asked you guys to ask me questions so I could make a Q&A video with your


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I will do the Q&A in my next video instead, cause I felt like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fixing with stuff, eh, we're gonna start with cutting the grass. That's not how you say it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I forgot how you say that in English. Okay, so, I just thought that I would just let you guys follow me around today, uhm, whatever we're gonna do. We have no big plans for today, just, you know, a nice weekend at home. Let's see what happens, uhm. Alright, so, let's get shit done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it wasn't long ago since it was super cold and suddenly I can go barefoot like this. I mean, it's not super, super warm today, but it's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's warm for being in the north of Sweden in May. Hi, what are you doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Finally done with cutting the grass and some other things as well. It just took the whole day. I think it's like 7 in the evening now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you haven't figured out already, we have a huge garden. And it takes a lot of time to take care of it and to keep it open and everything. But it's really fun as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yay! We did it! So now we're gonna eat and then later this evening I think we're gonna take a swim because I've been sweating so much. Hey! How you doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, me too. We have been working quite much today. I don't know if you can see it on the video, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially when you see the sunlight through the trees. We have such a beautiful garden. Every day and every evening I just walk around here just to admire everything and see all the things that pops up and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Surrounded in a way. Is that Australian? I thought no. No. This is British. So, I'm from England.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I hear it, like, when someone tells me it's not hard, but, have you ever been in Texas? Now I'm gonna go to my horse. Alright, I'll see you later, boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As many of you might already know, we had to put down our cat Toulouse about two months ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we recently received this little beautiful box now with his ashes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were thinking about what place that would be the best to bury him. Last summer when we moved to this house, uhm, that's like when Toulouse was, I don't know, he seemed like most happy ever, don't you think?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm very far away from being him, but he was so happy and he was like, he was so curious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, he felt like a new cat. So I feel like that's like one of the most beautiful memories I have of him. That's when we were here, at this stone. And we thought this would be the perfect place for Toulouse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have some flowers here that we will plant. They don't look super beautiful right now, but they will become really beautiful flowers and they will grow up every year, so hopefully.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's midnight right now and as you can see it's still very light outside.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are just in the beginning of this wonderful time when it will be light 24 hours a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's just so magical. I love this time of the year so so much. I'm soon gonna go to bed now. I'm quite tired because it's been a long day, but


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost every evening before I go to bed, I take a little walk in our garden.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This feeling of being outside in the middle of the night and the sky is light. It has this soft magical light and all the birds are singing and the smell in the air. I wish you could feel it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like my nose eats candy every time I breathe. The only sad part is that...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It seems like we're gonna have lots of mosquitoes this year. I mean, we have every year, but today was like the first real warm day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just walking around with my camera, trying to capture the beauty around me here. I just can't get enough of it. I feel like I'm spellbound.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Isn't there something very magical about this place? I feel like that. I don't know if you guys see it or feel it as well or if it's just that...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel it because we live here, I don't know, but I really feel like this place is so extremely beautiful in a way that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if it felt the same way back then as it do now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's almost three in the night right now, or three in the morning. And uhm, I am up here on a little hill on the other side of the village.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To catch the sunrise. Because right now the sun goes up at three in the morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I only slept for like an hour, so I set my alarm clock so that I would wake up and go here to see this beautiful sunrise. And I was so tired. But now when I came up to this, I am just more energized than I've ever been on a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is something truly magical about these light nights in the north. I live for these nights. I don't know. I don't know what it is, but it's just something with this that just fills me with so much joy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel so alive. I'm so in the present moment right now. It doesn't matter that I lack of sleep and that I'm super tired.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because when I'm here, I just feel like it's all worth it and I don't wanna miss a second of nights like these. Again, I just really wish that I could drag you out from the screen and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Take you here and show you this. So that you can be here and feel everything. I really, really hope that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least you can feel a little bit of this feeling that I have now through the screen. The sun is up. It's a new day. It's Monday today. The best Monday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think I will just sit here for a while now and watch the sun rise. And then I'm gonna go back home and maybe get a few hours of more sleep until I start my Monday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So thank you everyone for watching this video. And wherever you are in the world, I hope you are all fine and that you are all safe. Take care everyone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would take me hours to say all of their names.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I went home to, uh, Jersey to surprise my mom. It was her birthday on Saturday, so she had no idea I was coming home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well my flight didn't leave Cleveland until 1230. Delays on delays on delays. There was no weather even. The flight, the plane that was taking us from Cleveland to New Jersey was in Nashville, had technical issues, they had to test fly to Raleigh, whole issue. So I get, I get back to Jersey at 3am. So obviously my parents are asleep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I, you know, go to sleep, uh, surprise her in the morning, except apparently when no one, none of the kids are home, they never close any of the bedroom doors. So my mom at like six 30 on Saturday notices a bedroom door is closed and opens it. And I'm like under the covers and she's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it was a great weekend. It was awesome to see my mom, my dad, some friends I haven't seen in a while. Did you get some good pizza? I've said in the last week, I have fallen back in love with pizza. Between El Rion on Tuesday and four different New Jersey pizzerias. You went to four different pizzerias?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we had pizza at the barbecue on Saturday, then we had pizza for lunch on Friday, we had leftover pizza that someone else had on, on Sunday night, and then I had pizza before I left on Monday, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, I'm glad everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. We're glad everyone's back in one piece safe and not beat up with a baseball bat. So let's get into some football topics that we have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not addressed since we left on Friday and our first topic today is brought to us by our good friends at Lorraine County Community College. Your class is your future. Register now for summer and fall classes. You can learn more at LorraineCCC.edu.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And guys, DeAndre Hopkins is no longer a potential trade target for the Cleveland Browns. He is a free agent and free to sign with any team in the league if he would want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He has not technically been released yet because the league does not post transactions over Memorial Day weekend. So it's expected to be finalized today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I felt so bad but we had to mention it. Had to mention it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got one comment I want to throw out and then a question for you guys on the Hopkins Watson relationship. Do you remember the interview Watson did with Quincy Carrier a couple, maybe two months ago, the first time Watson really spoke?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he said he was gonna be in Arizona with Hopkins, and we never heard any follow up on those discussions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then Hopkins was on a podcast, the I Am Athlete podcast, and he named the five quarterbacks he would like to play with. And Watson wasn't one of those.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll pull it up again. We had it, uh, give me one sec. It was Mahomes, Allen. I'll find the list, but my question to you, but while I'm looking for the list.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Does DeAndre Hopkins strike you as a guy who at this point of his career?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it in the hunt for a Super Bowl ring? Or in the hunt for the bag?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got the list. So in order, and this was from May 22nd, he was on the I am athlete podcast with Brandon Marshall and a couple of other guys that do that. It's actually a pretty interesting podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, they asked who the five quarterbacks he wants to catch passes from next year. In order. Number one, Josh Allen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last last thing on Hopkins, do you think he gets more than Odell? When it's all said and done, whether he's worth more or irrelevant, do you think he gets more than Odell?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're going to our next topic and this one I think is going to be really fun and interesting. I hope it works how I plan it, uh, in my head, how I foresee it working. Me and Earl had a great conversation back and forth on it this morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's a positional draft for the Cleveland Browns. And we're gonna draft on what we think are the best positional units on this team. And I'll tell you guys the categories, the potential picks in a sec. But we let the YouTube chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pick the draft order today because we want them to be part of this as well. And we put up a poll. Yeaah. And to no one's surprise, the first pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will tell you after I tell you who brought us the poll results and that is PCC. Gotta add a little drama to this. Are you looking for a job with career advancement and great benefits? Well, PCC Airfoils is a leading manufacturer in Northeast Ohio. All locations of PCC Airfoils in Eastlake, Menor, Wycliffe, and Minerva are hiring for all positions starting at $18 and up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Plus full benefit packages, paid time off, and the signing bonus you can apply online at precast.com and slash careers to learn more. With the second pick in the Browns positional group draft, it has been awarded to, bum bum bum, Jason Lloyd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here are the categories that these guys are allowed to choose from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have the quarterback room, the running back room, the pass catcher room, that is receivers and tight ends combined into one. Offensive line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Defensive ends, defensive tackles, linebackers, DBs, and then you have the coaches room. So one more time for everybody out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have the QB room, the running back room, the pass catcher room, which is receivers and tight ends combined.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] O-line, D-end, D-tackle, linebacker, D-B, and coaches. So nine different positions to choose from. You each will get three. And after each pick, tell me why you picked them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So G, with that, you are officially on the clock in our first ever Browns position group draft. And before you go, I want to say one more thing. This is the best, not projecting. This is what you think is the best, strongest part of the team. So G. By the way,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See Bush, you have two in a row, but give us your first, we'll talk about it, then give us our second. So last pick in the second round, who are you taking?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not unfair. There is only six foot ones. To remind the people out there, here are the position groups. We got detackle, detackles, linebackers, coaches, and special teams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we will run through the teams real quick. We just launched a poll. Uh, Steve, give me tag board full here for team bowl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jason took running backs, defensive backs, and D tackles, and G Bush took the defensive ends, pass catchers, and coaches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While we let the poll calculate some votes, me and Earl had this debate early this morning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Earl had the coaches as his number one overall pick this morning. I'm going to let Earl come in and defend at number one. Earl the mic is yours.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had DN's as my number one overall pick too, so I was in line with G. I was very not in line with the rest of you guys on everything else, which I think is the fun part of this exercise. There was a top six or seven. You could finagle an order spot or two, the bottom two without clear bottom two, but it shows us that the Browns are pretty deep. You could really make a good argument that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A bunch of different spots could be in the top two or three. Uh, our results today are brought to us by the USFL. By the way, Boogie Roberts will join us here in a little bit remote. They lost again yesterday. They have fallen to two and five, but Boogie is killing it in his own rights. Check him out. USFL.com tickets for $10. A lot of fun for the entire family. And with 233 votes, the winner of the Browns positional group draft,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last thing before we pivot to a little Guardian's talk, did you guys like the draft format? Did you guys enjoy that? Because if we do like it, we'll start doing some more draft stuff to take a regular topic and spice it up a little bit, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are a learning process at Amoeba here at the UCSS production team. So, well, good point. Well taken. And, uh, you came in second anyway, so. There you go. Thanks to everybody for voting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree and we'll toss back right to this conversation in one second, but we have officially crossed the noon hour of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show and it's a great time to remind everybody that the lunch hour of UCSS is sponsored by Collier Companies Championship. You can check them out at the famous Firestone Country Club, July 12th through the 16th.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fun, family-friendly events for everyone, including live concerts every single night. You can learn more at colleaguegolf.com. In hindsight, boy, you just mentioned what I want to ask about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You said you and Jason in particular should have seen some of these offensive struggles coming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is a six million dollar mistake in the grand scheme of the Guardians financials really that big of a deal? It's not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Highest or I guess 6 lowest payroll at 89 million, 89.4 million.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A six million dollar mistake in the grand scheme of things doesn't to me seem like something that they'd be so scared to admit they made a mistake on. It's not like the Josh Bell, I'm online with Jason a hundred percent. He's going to opt in and that's going to be what's he's 17, 18 million next year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, B-DBDog21, excuse me. He said if Deshaun Watson is on from game one, that threat will open it up for Chubb against a lighter box up front. This is the year he can win the rushing title. Imagine 2020 Watson with Chubb in this O-line. Sheesh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do, we're going to switch gears here. I do want to remind everybody that from July 12th, uh, July 12th through the 16th, you can check out the Colleague Company's championship at the famous Firestone Country Club. Fun, family-friendly events for everyone. You can learn more at ColleagueGolf.com. We got Boogie Roberts coming up in a sec, coming off a loss, but first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How surprised are you at the dud the Celtics laid at home in front of the Boston Garden crowd in a situation like that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It'll be nine days before they play, and over the last two seasons, Denver is 6-0 against Miami, and not a single game has been relatively close. I mean, I don't hear, but that's regular season. But I'm saying it's a bad matchup, stylistically wise for Miami.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we're going to table a topic that we had in here. We'll do it tomorrow instead. Jason, this may be putting you in an unfair position, but I'm going to ask this question. You guys could pass if you want, but if he's a free agent and you're Dan Gilbert, do you move mountains to find a way to get Bob Myers here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was number two in front of the mellow ball behind Anthony Edwards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Patrick Williams, who's been a pretty good player. Uh, Kuro, uh, Kong Wu, who is a better center than James Wiseman. Killian Hayes, Obie Toppin, Denny Advia, who none of you guys knew last week besides Volkowski's Jewish. I got you. Uh, Devin Vassell and Tyrese Halliburton late. They could have had Halliburton with that team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I weigh in real quick on the Bob Myers thing? Please. So, G's mentioned it, we've all talked about how


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the current construction of this team, the casualty have to find ways to improve on the fringes essentially. They're not going to be able to make a massive move here that's going to completely shake up. I mean they could make a massive move, but we don't expect them to. And I don't know all the aprons and the layers of the new CBA agreement, but I was listening to a podcast and they were explaining the other day how


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With this new CBA, it's going to be extremely difficult for teams to build a roster with more than two max guys on your team. Like it is so hard and Jason, I know you probably know a little more about the tax aprons and the, but this whole new CBA is going to make it really difficult. A guy like Bob Myers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throughout his career in goal, as they had shuffled the deck in ways that people looked at at first, like, the hell are you doing? Like bringing Andre Iguodala, when they already had Curry and Klay Thompson on the wings as another guy who needed the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who eventually fit in perfect. He did a better job in my opinion than anyone else in the league. At evaluating guys from other teams that would plug in place into their system perfectly. Even though they hadn't shown that exact skill set before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's probably unlikely and Jason's probably right that he wants to take a year off, survey the landscape, then get back into it. And I know Kobe Altman just finished second in executive of the year voting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that could be the equivalent of the Brown signing of Jim Schwartz to completely spearhead the defense. Bringing him could completely change the future


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I said wasn't anti-Kobe, I just think Bob is the best of the best. If you get a chance to somehow upgrade from good to the best, if it's possible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, two things. We got Boogie, he just texted me. He'll be on in about five minutes. So we got some, uh, viewer questions we're gonna ask here. From the text line, by the way, you can get daily show updates. If you text the word show to 216-435-1590, it'll be daily updates. And sometimes, if we have a few minutes to kill, we'll check the line, see if anyone sent us any questions, and we will...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Be able to answer them. It won't be every day. We won't answer all of them, but we're going to try to get to a couple. And a reminder today to our favorite people in the world, our coaches here members, uh, no overtime today. We're doing a tag board demonstration for the rest of Tegna to hopefully lead us to some improved


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just wanna tell the people what we're doing. It's not that we're forgetting about it. We're not short on any content. That is what we are doing. We'll be back tomorrow, uh, with overtime. So!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a question, I have no idea who it's from. I don't want to say their number out loud. So I'm not going to put their number out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, if you send us a question, send us your name. This came in earlier in the show. Yeah. Uh, is Brian Reynolds an option to get as an outfielder? What about Adley Rutchman as catcher, Corey Siegert, shortstop, or Kyle Schwaber? Would any of these players be able to help the Guardians? Uh, or could we get any of them? No, no, no, no, no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both spent three months campaigning for Brian Reynolds before the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't think, I don't think financially either. Uh, I don't think they'd be able to. Cause Seeger signed a $300 million contract.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, next, I don't know how this started, not sure where it came from, but the question comes from, why does Jason hate the playing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, the Heat were, well, they were the 8C, but they lost their first playing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this was from a fan, and we've mentioned that we should all go down at some point. We could ask Boogie in a sec when he joins us. But, uh, we do gotta pick a Saturday and make it down and watch Boogie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he said they had four in a row at home, they played this weekend, so maybe three more? Yeah. I'm guessing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I know, it was funny, that's what I'm saying, but it was, it was like robbery, police news, and here's Mike Polk measuring potholes in the middle of Euclid. It was amazing. And he made it funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, it is time to welcome back our favorite recurring guest at the moment. It is our guy Boogie Roberts, joining us from Canton. By the way, USFL games are in Canton this week. $10, check them out at USFL.com for all your tickets. Fun family friend for everyone, USFL.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we're getting the whole UCSS fam down at Canton to check out one of your games, are you guys home the next three weeks? And if so, how can we put together a little trip here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boogie, I got one more for you. The game's also at noon, by the way, so I'm gonna text you. We actually may, that may work out for a couple of our schedules this weekend. Uh, Boogie, so I'll text you on the side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you get, when you get recognized, are you getting recognized more as Boogie Roberts the Nightmare at Defensive End or are you getting recognized more as Boogie Roberts the Super Bowl Halftime Show Acting Star or Boogie Roberts the UCSS, uh, fourth chair on Tuesdays or Mondays whenever you pull in? What do you get recognized the most as these days?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I tease something for tomorrow though? Yeah, please. So this is on tomorrow's show. Jason, I'm sad you're not going to be part of this, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For some reason, PFF chose UCSS to be part of their...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All over the map. Some Browns fans are gonna love, some are gonna get really pissed off at, but we're gonna go through 7 tomorrow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For whatever reason, PFF chose us as one of the accounts that they're gonna let use this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it said 25 people in Ohio got like this, whatever. I email them about it. But I'm going to show the results tomorrow. It varies and we're going to look at what's the most realistic simulation, what's the least realistic and how we feel in totality of how PFF is predicting the Brown season. But it's something you can only find on UCSY because we're the ones that got to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their goal? To overturn the presidential election.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just four years before, he stood at this very place, lighting the fires that would become an insurrection.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The carnage he vowed to end was in fact just beginning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From his early days as a candidate Donald Trump came out fighting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rallying distrust and anger against the government.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And as Trump's appeal grew, his rivals in the Republican Party tried to fight back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Donald Trump headed to the Republican convention after crushing the establishment candidates.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In their defeat the GOP leaders lined up behind the man who had ridiculed and attacked them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On election night, it paid off. He had the party, a powerful base, and now the presidency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in his first week, Trump leaned in, alienating and angering huge swaths of the public.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] ...with an executive order aimed at blocking people from seven predominantly Muslim countries.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What he wanted were wins, and he expected Republicans on Capitol Hill to deliver.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mike Pence representing Trump at the Senate tried to convince McCain to vote for the bill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] McCain, with a thumbs down gesture, shocked the chamber.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He targeted congressional Republicans, especially the Senate leader, Mitch McConnell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mitch McConnell learned a lesson. He had to keep Donald Trump on his side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the face of that horror, Donald Trump would send a message.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Trump showed no regret. He went after his critics especially Republicans who had spoken up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He rallied his base against their own senator, Jeff Flick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In time, dozens of Republicans would be run out by Trump.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the wreckage of Charlottesville, Trump emerged even stronger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One by one, congressional leaders, including those he'd attacked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With his party behind him, Trump was emboldened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the Democrats march to the Senate to present the case against the President.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Republican leader Mitch McConnell had made clear he would stand by Trump.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the country was reeling in protest over racial injustice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A president marching from the White House with staff in tow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And incited supporters to rise up against governors who ordered pandemic lockdowns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Despite the violence, Republican leaders stood by Trump.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just before 2.30 in the morning, Trump went before the cameras.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, Trump's final assault on democracy would begin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One by one, Congressional Republicans jumped on board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] desperate, Trump was running out of time and out of options.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He turned to Vice President Mike Pence with a stunning demand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mitch McConnell would also break with the president that day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the angry crowd ransacked the Capitol, Trump gave them a target.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A few hours later, after the deadly riot was quelled, Congress returned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even after the attack that would leave five people dead and many injured.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 147 Republican members of Congress stood with the president, voting to overturn the election results.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Donald Trump had brought carnage to the nation's capital. In his wake, a fractured Republican party, and a bitterly divided America.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You start seeing these really ugly moments, the rallies, uhm, with, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Protesters, some of whom are non-white protesters getting treated very violently by his supporters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The vice president stood toe to toe with John McCain, and he was in his space. It was, it was very close. They went on for, I don't know, it seemed like 15 or 20 minutes, back and forth, back and forth.

[Assistant] Alex Jones, uhm, is a character, uh, and he has a very, very large, very, very loyal following out there in the blogosphere.

[Assistant] It used to be that you would have to be somebody who was deep, deep into conspiracy culture to know who Alex Jones was. You'd have to know things about lizard people, or teleportation pads, uh, these crazy, crazy conspiracy theories.

[Assistant] When we put out a film, I remember Endgame, within like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Something like six or seven days receiving like 30 million views. It was ridiculous. I just remember constantly refreshing and it going up by thousands every time I'd refresh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's probably a false flag operation. It might not be, but it probably is.

[Assistant] And I stopped him and I was like, Alex man, they're going to come after you for Sandy Hook. You know, I was like, look man, you...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is crazy. And he just stopped and looked at me with no reaction. He had nothing to say to me. Like he just stopped like a deer in headlights.

[Assistant] Had any idea at that point that this is somebody that was becoming back again and again and again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it was a super power trip for Alex that was irresistible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, I mean Alex would always encourage people, like, I can't do this alone. You know, he'd always encourage people to go out and do those things by themselves.
