Episode Recap

Tim Pool and his co-hosts discussed Democrats launching Project SAM, a $20 million initiative to learn how to communicate with American men after losing elections. Tim criticized the effort as laughable and emblematic of Democratic elitism, noting that instead of acting like regular people having conversations, they're spending millions in luxury hotels. The panel also covered Donald Trump's claim about Canada becoming the 51st state, the Jordan Peterson Jubilee controversy where he was misrepresented as claiming to be a Christian, and various other news items. Guest Steve Baker joined to discuss the project, with Phil Labonte and Elad providing commentary throughout the episode.

Notable Quotes

It's our greatest fear realized. Democrats launching Project Codename Sam. Speaking to American men... This is laughably absurd. Democrats are spending 20 million dollars on a project to learn how to talk to men because they don't know how.

Tim Pool · opening

You don't act like people, just like regular people who have a conversation.

Tim Pool · main discussion

They actually want more content out of me, but they keep putting me on these jobs that takes me into the deep, dark nether regions of investigative reporting.

Steve Baker · guest introduction

There was a big controversy surrounding Jordan Peterson, who appeared on a Jubilee show. One Christian versus 20 atheists, and then Jordan Peterson is like, I'm not a Christian. I never said that. And then they had to change the title, and now the whole episode makes no sense.

Tim Pool · news item

I hope everybody had a very meaningful Memorial Day weekend.

Phil Labonte · co-host greeting
