1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,960
All's well in downtown Dubai, 
everything looks fine, people 

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:10,120
outside, no big deal. 
So I don't know what the fuss is

3
00:00:10,120 --> 00:00:12,640
all about on social media where 
people think it's a war zone. 

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:14,640
It's absolutely not. 
It's perfectly safe out here. 

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,680
I love it. 
Thanks for the report SO. 

6
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:25,200
So we soon sort of found out. 
I mean, I don't know, sort of, I

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,360
say I have to say sort of 
because we don't know exactly, 

8
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,680
but it seems to be Jared that 
Dubai is paying him to some 

9
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,840
degree because he was with a 
bunch of other Dubai influencers

10
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,280
that are from different 
countries and posted a picture 

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,120
of himself with that group. 
And he's been posting nothing. 

12
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,240
But like how I don't know 
whether he's exactly paid or 

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,080
like what the relationship is, 
but he's been posting a lot of 

14
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,600
direct like Dubai is great. 
He's he even posted something 

15
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,320
like Dubai tourism is going to 
jump off as soon as this war 

16
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,000
ends. 
It's really crazy. 

17
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,560
It's actually quite and then 
people government officials be 

18
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,160
like, thank you, Ian, you are 
great. 

19
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,239
Like in these replies. 
It's it's it's actually it's 

20
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:06,920
actually like mind boggling. 
I don't know how. 

21
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,240
This could be it would be 
funnier if the government. 

22
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,640
Like some kind of magic life in 
Dubai. 

23
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,640
It would be way funnier if the 
Dubai officials were replying to

24
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:24,400
him and being like, Sir, you are
Malaysian, what do you know 

25
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,400
about Dubai? 
How could you possibly know 

26
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,040
anything about Dubai? 
Why are you so interested in 

27
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,240
tourism? 
Oh. 

28
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,600
Oh my God. 
So he posted this this 

29
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,760
extraordinarily dystopian video.
Yeah, I would play audio, but 

30
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,880
it's it's really a visual. 
Experience it. 

31
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,280
You can't where he was trying 
where he's where he was supposed

32
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:51,960
to be looking cool and he's like
smoking a a hookah with like 

33
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,680
this dead eyed fake cool guy 
expression. 

34
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:56,720
It's just, I don't know how to 
do it. 

35
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,080
It just looked like his version 
of a cool guy expression looks 

36
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,200
like someone took a fresh turd 
and kind of waved it in front of

37
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,600
his nose for a little bit and 
just asked him to like, don't 

38
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,759
react, don't react. 
You know, it's like Jared's 

39
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:11,920
doing it, but you can't. 
Yeah. 

40
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:16,240
It's just sort of like he's just
sweating it out until the turd 

41
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,840
moves away and he's doing this. 
And then there's this like 

42
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:23,480
absolutely crappy band. 
I don't know if there's this 

43
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,400
like weird brand. 
I can't remember. 

44
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:26,800
I don't know if they're Indian 
or what. 

45
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,480
And they're like playing some 
jangly thing. 

46
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,480
And there's some guy who's like 
his friend. 

47
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,120
I don't know if he's another 
like poster associated whatever 

48
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,520
with this union of of Dubai 
posters. 

49
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,240
And he's just like on his phone 
looking bored. 

50
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,000
It is. 
And he and Chong was just like, 

51
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,120
it's 3:00 AM in Dubai. 
It's like supposedly 

52
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,360
everything's bad outside, but 
we're just keeping it real over 

53
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,520
here or whatever, he said. 
Dude, you, you're forgetting the

54
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,840
best part. 
So it's him smoking the hookah. 

55
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,800
It's his friend, just like 
staring down into his phone 

56
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,400
looking like he's about to fall 
asleep. 

57
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,680
And then it's workers at the 
club showing up with like, 

58
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,840
bottle service with a sparkler 
shooting out of the bottle and 

59
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,120
just being like, yeah, yeah, 
yeah, yeah. 

60
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:19,000
You know. 
Oh my God, yes, it did. 

61
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,440
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

62
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,240
And he's like, yeah, that's to 
him. 

63
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,840
He's like, yeah, we got the 
we're living the fucking life in

64
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,680
Dubai. 
We're living the life. 

65
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,720
And and you know, we don't know 
if someone is paying him there. 

66
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,360
Who knows if they set him up for
that. 

67
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,120
Like, we'll, we'll buy you a 
table service with some bottles 

68
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,520
and like, you can get some 
hookah for free and just just 

69
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,720
post about it, buddy. 
We just want to like, make Dubai

70
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,360
look good as Iran bombs various 
locations there because Dubai 

71
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,160
also relies very heavily on 
tourism. 

72
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,480
Yeah, yeah. 
I mean, the tourism port does a 

73
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,000
lot of that stuff, right? 
Yeah, exactly, exactly. 

74
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,200
It's it's there's a lot of 
people, like a lot of people 

75
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,520
pass through there, a lot of, 
you know, for tourism or also 

76
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,160
for travel from one place to 
another. 

77
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,640
So this is important to them. 
So so they need they're like, 

78
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,200
you know what we need to do? 
We need to get Ian on this. 

79
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,080
We need to get Ian like the 
double O 7 type thing. 

80
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,880
It's like Mr. Bond, like M calls
him in the M of Dubai and is 

81
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,960
like, we have a mission for you 
should you choose to accept it. 

82
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,320
Yeah. 
OK. 

83
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,680
So the the key, the Keith Woods,
the Irish white supremacist, 

84
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,200
you're familiar with that 
gentleman. 

85
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,720
Of course. 
Yeah, you know, when Jared takes

86
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,560
a long time, he knows what I'm 
talking about. 

87
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,440
He he referred I hate to I, you 
know, I, I, you know, I don't 

88
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,560
want to hatch him already, but 
he referred to the video as 

89
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,560
Lynchian. 
So that is how it. 

90
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,800
Is yeah, it kind of yeah. 
It's it's like a. 

91
00:04:42,840 --> 00:04:45,280
It's like. 
A a deleted scene of Twin Peaks,

92
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:47,880
you know. 
Yeah, that is how it's landing 

93
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,920
with. 
That's how that is how it's 

94
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,240
landing with his target 
demographic on X. 

95
00:04:53,600 --> 00:05:00,400
And then, you know, after 
everybody made fun of it, which 

96
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,120
everyone did, I mean, it seems 
like people on the right piled 

97
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,960
on it even more than, I mean, 
there's not many people on the 

98
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,760
left, you know, left of it. 
Yeah, I mean, you, you, you hear

99
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,320
so much about like how divided 
this country is, but it's 

100
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,800
moments like that where it's 
like, you know, actually we're 

101
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,080
all like 11 Nation 1 website. 
We can all make fun of you. 

102
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,800
We can. 
We can all make fun of you in 

103
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:26,480
for a minute. 
Anyway, so he had the audacity 

104
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:33,880
to to quote, tweet this and and 
write, you know, something to 

105
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,120
the effect of like, oh, this, 
this cringe, this cringe post is

106
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,440
you know, it, it worked exactly 
as planned, Like it really took 

107
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,080
off, which is a that's a that 
that's what we call a cope. 

108
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,680
Which I feel, but I feel like 
that also could add to the 

109
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,440
theory that maybe the tourism 
board in Dubai or something had 

110
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,600
paid for this. 
And he's like, he's like, damn, 

111
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,920
I got batshit engagement. 
That's all they care about. 

112
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,400
Like. 
Yeah, I mean. 

113
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,960
One OA. 
Yeah, my strong recommendation, 

114
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,000
because I am not getting paid by
any Dubai tourism board, is do 

115
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,720
not go there right now because 
bombs are literally falling from

116
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:21,040
the sky and, you know, pretty 
soon one of them is going to 

117
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,440
kill somebody that could be you.
So that's my that's my personal 

118
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:30,000
take on that. 
Then he posted that I mentioned 

119
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000
that picture with all the 
different influencers and we got

120
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
to look for the first time like.
His crew dog. 

121
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,440
Yeah, we, we his crew and also 
him and he's a, he's very 

122
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,680
diminutive. 
But the interesting thing and I,

123
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,640
I don't, I really don't want to 
scrutinize somebody's appearance

124
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,360
too much, but I just, I had to 
point this out. 

125
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,440
If you look at the thing, Ian 
looks like he's like 4 foot 10 

126
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:58,640
and everybody else is is is 5/8 
or taller and and everybody's 

127
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,680
shoes look like they're size 10 
or bigger and Ian's look like 

128
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,440
they're size 12. 
So he looks like he's like 4 

129
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,560
foot 10 with like size 12 shoes 
in the picture. 

130
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,040
That is my take of it. 
When I saw it, I wrote on on 

131
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:13,720
blue sky. 
I hate to quote my own thing, 

132
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,720
but I'm I'm not going to get 
better material of this, which 

133
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,920
is Ian Miles Chong has the look 
of the Star Wars junkyard 

134
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,680
Muppet. 
The protagonist reluctantly 

135
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:26,080
barters with to repair their 
jump speeder, which he does. 

136
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:30,760
He really does look like a a 
Star Wars muppet that that tries

137
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,240
to get you to to get a few 
rations or something so he can 

138
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,720
fix your jump speeder. 
Yeah, I'm just leaving this 

139
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,400
photo again. 
I have it pulled up. 

140
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,040
His pants don't fit. 
You should buy pants that fit. 

141
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,880
But he's living his best life. 
Like it's, it's a weird thing to

142
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:58,360
say, which is like Ian Miles 
Chung used to like anger me so 

143
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,920
much because it was like, Oh my 
God, like during the first 

144
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,400
trumpet measure, I'll be like, 
this fucking guy is in Malaysia 

145
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,280
and he's always fucking with our
politicians. 

146
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,520
But like something about it now 
there's some sort of charm to it

147
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,560
now because he, I feel like he 
has no influence over American 

148
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,280
discourse anymore. 
And now he's just like this 

149
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,320
Internet freak. 
He's just this weird like 

150
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,640
creature that a. 
Website personality. 

151
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,520
Because he's a, well, he's a, 
he's a website personality. 

152
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,080
If ever there's been a 
motherfucking website 

153
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,120
personality, he may be the 
greatest website personality of 

154
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,120
all time. 
He may be, he may be the, he may

155
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,440
be the like, he's like, yeah, 
he's like the Wayne Gretzky of, 

156
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,280
of website personalities. 
He's he's he's a record-breaking

157
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,480
website personality. 
Well, Mike, I do want to remind 

158
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,880
you that when I reached out to 
him, he did say he would be open

159
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,000
to joining us for an episode of 
our show sometime. 

160
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:52,960
We should do it while the bombs 
are falling. 

161
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,840
It's just, I want to hear like, 
like, like, just like, just. 

162
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,960
I want to have him like. 
Surviving. 

163
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,080
I want to have him on only to 
talk about Dubai. 

164
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,120
What's he like to do? 
I don't want to, I don't want 

165
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,880
to. 
I don't want to blow up this 

166
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,360
reporter's spot, but I sent it 
the I, I sent the Chong thing 

167
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,960
around at the time it first 
happened. 

168
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,400
And, and the reporter said to 
me, Iran has an opportunity to 

169
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,400
do the funniest thing, which I 
don't think is inappropriate. 

170
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,760
I don't want to. 
I'll let him spit, say, say it 

171
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,480
using his own name. 
Well, it's not Andrew. 

172
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,520
Andrew Tate's in Dubai too, 
right? 

173
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,880
No, isn't he, is he a name Dubai
now? 

174
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,360
I thought, isn't he like, I 
don't know, he's always in a. 

175
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,120
Director in the UAE baby. 
No, he's in US. 

176
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,600
Where Where is he? 
I don't know. 

177
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,760
We we we did not cover this 
prop. 

178
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,440
We did not do our research on 
the Andrew Tate. 

179
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,240
You just brought it up. 
I don't know. 

180
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:50,680
Whoops. 
I don't think he is. 

181
00:09:50,680 --> 00:09:53,320
I don't think he's in UA now, 
but I do. 

182
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:57,080
I do think, you know, it would 
be great to get Chong on the 

183
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,720
line. 
Well, only when the bombs are 

184
00:09:58,720 --> 00:09:59,800
falling. 
I want to hear. 

185
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,800
I want to hear him justify his 
up. 

186
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,440
Like I'd be like, Sir, what do 
you know about the North 

187
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,960
Carolina primary? 
But well, I'll tell you what 

188
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,040
just. 
Pick some random post about 

189
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:16,760
American politics that he's 
posted in the last week and ask 

190
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:21,560
him a single follow up question.
See. 

191
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:27,560
If he see if he knows it all. 
I wonder how it would feel if if

192
00:10:27,560 --> 00:10:30,240
like you were going to die and 
you were in Miles Chong. 

193
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:34,920
I mean, you knew like the walls 
were closing in due to due to 

194
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,640
bombs, right? 
And stuff like to be like I 

195
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,200
posted for 10 years about this 
president in the country I 

196
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,880
didn't live in and then I and 
then I like and. 

197
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,360
Then that president. 
Killed me in Dubai. 

198
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,280
Oh, it's terrible. 
No.
