Timcast IRL #193 - Woman BEATS Cop With Baton Over Mask "Law," People Are SNAPPING w/ Eric July
Featuring: Eric July
Episode Recap
Timcast IRL episode 193, recorded on December 30, 2020, featured Tim Pool and co-host Ian Crossland discussing several breaking news stories with guest Eric July. The episode opened with coverage of a St. Louis County Sheriff's Deputy being attacked by a woman with her own baton at a Shell gas station on Christmas Day after being told she couldn't enter without a mask. Tim connected this incident to broader tensions, mentioning a Navy veteran who bashed someone with a bottle over mask requirements and drawing parallels to the George Floyd riots, noting that people with nothing left to lose tend to snap. The discussion transitioned to January 6th and Trump's planned D.C. rally, with Tim speculating about the volatile atmosphere as people felt they had nothing left to lose. The panel covered Mitch McConnell's rejection of the $2,000 stimulus check and his proposed bill containing Section 230 repeal provisions, which sparked debate between Trump supporters favoring repeal and those opposing it. A lighter moment came when Luke returned after walking out during the previous episode due to a migraine, and the hosts discussed not taking health for granted. The episode also touched on the Pentagon UFO disclosure provision slipped into the 5,500-page omnibus bill, requiring UFO information release within 180 days, which Tim found entertaining. The conversation included references to the previous day's episode about dismantling the Federal Reserve.

— Tim Pool · opening about mask mandate incidents
“They got nothing left to lose. They've lost their business. They've lost their livelihood. Their lives are at risk. They got free time. Just like we saw with the George Floyd riots. People had nothing to do. They were bored. Their jobs were gone and they snapped and they went out and they smashed everything up.”

“And the greatest and only good thing to come out of the omnibus bill is that of all the things they snuck into this 5,500 page bill was a provision mandating the Pentagon release their information on UFOs in 180 days. And I'm like, I'm kind of okay with that one.”
