Notable Quotes

“We have an investigation happening in Buffalo. Apparently, before this tragic incident occurred at the grocery store, advance warning was given to several people, one of which was a retired federal agent.”

— Tim Pool · opening story introduction

“It's remarkable to see left-wing activists just as outraged and for the same reasons as the rightists. Who would have thought this would be the thing that would unify us? But when kids lose their lives and police do nothing and bar people from saving them, I think a lot of people are going to be angry.”

— Tim Pool · Uvalde police criticism discussion

“I host a podcast called The President's Daily Brief. We talk about a lot of international affairs, some domestic stuff, but the focus is just like the actual President's Daily Brief, which is a top-secret summary that's given to the president every morning.”

— Bryan Dean Wright · guest introduction

“We're actively doing everything we can to separate from the establishment big tech machine. If you go to the homepage of TimCast.com, these streams are now there with the chat and everything.”

— Tim Pool · platform independence announcement

“Look at that wobbly spin.”
