are we any true is this true. is america reached in games like this is the locus. we just started on a new century the twenty first century is it also going to be the american century . so it's going to be kind of course you know like a classic car something good looking. and i have a sixty five right here. british race car no no it's got to be like america and it's got a screen america. sixty six most oh right verbal it's got every. classic it's got the power if france asked like i love it's got steve mcqueen bowl of vibe but i think something a little more guns a bigger gonzo big. although it's what. he says. this is it this is

a chair i think we found our vehicle right here my associate dr gonzo will be piling the vehicle this says america. wide open it's a muscle car we don't care about gas prices we just get more gas wherever we go we'll just get more it's no problem this is like the sort of car you drive off the grand canyon stallman will lose me and so interesting and it's kind of like a gonzo meets louise it's going to one ways this is very hunter s. thompson here it goes catcher yeah we'll take it. oh yeah. i back to see the las vegas strip right ahead we are entering vegas in a car that hunter s. thompson would be proud of the one nine hundred sixty five cadillac to fill. i feel the spirit i feel as a guy. i feel the syntax i feel those long strings of adjectives

put together i wonder if lopes a diversion of them by grossman having to immerse the quality alerts to go so those who were inventing journalism. to meet heads. were going gone. how did they go gonzo when you're already gone so i'm so done for soloing i don't know what it's like not to go. i love the neon i love the love the night sky the stars and. i love the fakery i love the fountains. it's so fake it's real yeah this world we're world think is real real frank you don't really know you know the vegas is fake and that's what's real about it. you know warren buffett always says if you don't know what the sucker at that poker table is it's you it's here it's like

people know the software and they come to vegas anyway they're like i don't have to like being a sucker this weekend it's going to feel good i think. vegas is also like the whole voting process now. you know going in that the house always wins it's like there's some sort of elite that always gets its way they always get all their wars they always get all their bailouts no matter what but you feel good it's like the whole it's our whole you know bread and circuses atmosphere around this like my party is going to win and yet and you know you deep down you're the sucker and they're never going to deliver on their promises. but you still do it doesn't this car kind of remind you of the vehicle in which john f. kennedy was assassinated open top we're going. crowded causeway lot of positions right there i see a grassy knolls everywhere i remember ninety six and. i mean i was three years old

and i remember everything went black everything went dark everything when though kind of like whispering in corridors a. great great shadow fell over the country and confusing the sixty's progressed in that way and then we had watergate the seventy's so politically i went through this messy period water gave you know more a lot of people say that this is some sort of uniquely scary period in u.s. history but i only know the sixty's mostly from. the images and the documentaries and the footage but it seems like i must have been way scarier back than because you had the assassination of a president you had the assassination of the civil rights movement martin luther king jr malcolm x. you had all the race riots it seems like that was a genuinely more melt down sort of period it was and you know the news business had to be more responsible like walter cronkite he couldn't really play the partisan

games that we see newscasters today because he was the only connection you had with reality with what was really going on so he would never think of using the opportunity to throw in a legend as you see today with fox or amazon he said oh you look at this even have these pushbutton and they're only like four or five options on the radio. i'm not sure that more options has made us a better informed population or a better entertained population yeah c.b.s. n.b.c. yeah. you know don imus in the morning i miss in the morning. at c.b.s. radio all the classics from the fifty's and sixty's because a thousand t.v. stations a thousand radio stations i felt oppressed and. still love it is. slowed down. so now. yes feel like the way i

pressed the brakes here you know i did say this is like a maggot car but the past the greatness that america was wasn't ever really that great because the fact is this car doesn't quite break that well and it does fishtail all over the road but we look fine well to see inside the mind i think this is like looking into the mind of the american soldier honey honey honey break i'm sorry. you know i think maybe focus on the little break. might be going to hear your backseat driver i didn't know that about you. i've been watching you john for years now and i really learned to appreciate how well you drive so the occasional mr i know this is kind of stands out you can always drive of course but i don't have a driver's license his license and the like fifteen or sixteen twenty five years now hunter s. thompson why didn't let something like a driver's license come between him and driving it

a cadillac could develop as part of the charm of this car is the fact that it's very dangerous you might not possibly be able to break it in time to stop from hitting the car in front of you before you might fishtail across the lanes on the highway you have to be self aware. otherwise you could end up in a tragic wreck those correction the fifty's or sixty's are so much more spectacular because you have like bodies splayed everywhere blood cures gushing you know in these days because it's so well manufactured everything is contained a bubble falls off everybody is safe nothing really happened here but air bags deploy there's a real danger in cars anymore like being in a crib a baby crib this car's broken dangerous you can get killed in this car you could lose a limb in this car you could lose all your blood in this car not so with the modern car that's what makes this car a better car because it makes this car more tragically real you're on the pavement you feel the pain but i can feel my feet right now and i can feel the engine flopping and i can. feel this wind chills about the crack in my face alas raby in

a million different ways and i'm loving it because it's gonzo time to. do nothing congress thompson. he's a writer big in the seventy's travel all over america any. everyone on the solo freaks and charlatans and con men and geniuses that are american what you. would do me define america is equal part three in genius or is it just all god fearing normal people i'm normal life return element of american character that's freaky. i think a big america has a lot of pretty women yeah i think there are some people that are. sort of. more reserved about their freak heart it more what about being i think it's more like a lot of people want to do it the people who are doing it want to be what you want to have a boy so are you get your freak out most response i mean is it safe to live here

anymore do you think. ana were the worst things contributing to that by. mining by the way any money mind drug money too much money too much just too much money and making people crazy because there's too much money where the money where the money comes from pretty freely so your anti federal reserve bank. your you want more money printed for yourself you want some of the printed money to use it since it is you mean are you committing sins are you actively engaging in some night night yet you hope that you might feel you know yeah quick question this is finally here begun in america just to feel safe here. not just to say yeah i feel like a bubble. sure yes. place

to go to church anything other than a few days late seventy's or early lesbian bar i got to lose the thing. it ups and all that i got the legs for a lot of women would kill for legs like but. in the united states we proactively require brominated flame retardants to be ploy interfere in a church and marketing among other things and that's resulted in extremely higher levels all those flame retardants in the human bodies of americans as opposed to europeans and that ultimately has affected the cognitive outcomes of literally

a generation of american children. u.s. veterans who come back from war often told those same stories. were going out for the people who were killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either there already is several generations of them so i just got this memo from a certain french officer says we're going to attack and destroy the government and seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with them money those with lives if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war surely we can risk some discomfort or easiness for peace. i've been saying for. numbers

mean something they matter the u.s. is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime stamping huge fish. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be all for rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent highest last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit first shock and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember one one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only boom but. with all making manufactured incentives to public wealth. when the running plus is protect themselves. when the final

merry go round lifts only the one percent. going the whole middle of the room six. million more you. really cold. sell out say for these same. every time in the end tommy lee paris in las vegas

backs of course these to do nuclear testing right there in one hundred fifty two people would come here and have a coffee till the watching the nuclear explosion on the horizon from the new the nevada nuclear test and saying i know who's getting tourism fantastic comic bombs arise in the mushroom clouds of dust about glories i had a really weird dream that alexander was in our bedroom painting. and i woke up and he was just standing there painting these exploding bank paintings what is think of you know you're not observer of culture obviously you're an artist why do you think people came here to watch nuclear explosions oh my god because they didn't have cable nets. i don't know. they had no idea how unhealthy it was and it was cool like people love watching stuff blow up i mean come on they blow up all these old hotels out here it's like the same energy. right

so is there something perhaps entertaining about watching disaster unfold watching say trump in the white house or watching a nuclear explosion on the horizon hell yeah i mean as long as there's just you know people that want to. rev their car engines up and bet on anything and you know we love all this just this kind of self-destruction going on out here it's part of our. it's part of our american d.n.a. and and just blow things up right i mean explosions are in our national anthem right bombs bursting in air for god's sake. that was not sent out. i mean i just think vegas is the epitome of america trump is the pit of my. iss america and you know it's for better or worse this is this

what's happening guys it's creative destruction essentially right isn't that kind of like go boom wrote that book disaster capitalism klein right they only collide just to get it's sort of a sort of a nihilistic horrifying end of that economic theory about dig a hole and fill it up and that's keynesianism yeah but in the schumpeter the economist wrote about creative destruction yeah they need to blow things up and they can get really old and bring in the new has a nuclear explosion coming because you know i need to know how intense my sunglasses need to be these are the lighter ones fortunately you know it's a good safe mile or two away as i don't need that what the government recommends yes so you know just to squint i just you know my slant trump looked at the at the at the at the eclipse just when you're flying i just saw

a story about an artificial intelligence painting which just sold for four hundred twenty thousand dollars i saw that is it up for intel didn't really look like a brand and it's old for over four hundred thousand dollars at auction that's unbelievable i mean three being replaced by a robot you knew you were being an artist you would be replaced by a robot because you would have a unique skill that could be replaced by a robot that's right like you are being replaced by a robot i'm aiming for a feature spot in the robot zoo they're going to pick the most interesting people wipe the rest of us out so just be really interesting i think the painting they'll be into it and how do you know we're not already featured players in the robots that's a lot of people including prejudices a whole gram gathered by you know artificial intelligence from outside our realm of comprehension and we're just basically there for their entertainment and i know that's not the case right now on musk says we are i know we could just be. n.p.c.

characters right here we been put here to tell people just to direct them maybe toward or away from the nuclear explosion you know speaking of n.p.c. which is a me my mom player character you're an artist are means the same as art or is a different re the letter grade greg face i might i might go for that for my halloween costume. is an art or is it not art or is it near our i do not think. that means are going to be collected as as art as much as i just want to buy the fraud for eight thousand dollars that's a brave new world that i know if you got a little like a thumb drive and you saved it all yeah it's on it's all just on the phone yeah and it's a rare puppy the frog. was a thousand bucks and so a lot of these collectibles are on the block chain and they're selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars yeah an artificial intelligence are trades for four hundred

thousand dollars during this journey we're covering the disconnects between rhetoric and reality so you have a kind of a conflict with this a confrontation with this when you were visited by homeland security and the f.b.i. yet it's you know if you're painting you're burning bank paintings were real bright my god i mean what. i can't believe that happened so long ago and it's just so weird if you start having cops walking up making decisions on as you're painting in the street whether that's like you know good art or what about mark zuckerberg or the atlantic council or twitter or facebook like should these guys determine what is art what is good free speech what is a valid political opinion what is a valid economic opinion mark zuckerberg no one just looking at the guy what does he buy like brad weiland whale paintings or something i can't even imagine you know what's your story how did your family end up at a loss and. because you were actually born and raised in los angeles my family goes

back a ways in los angeles my great grandfather started the helms bakery. in the thirty's and that was the big thing up until one nine hundred sixty nine when they sold it and you know it's an interesting example of a c.e.o. not gal geeing his employees i mean they didn't have to unionize everybody was paid enough they wanted to work there for their entire life they got pensions there wasn't this sort of feel good that the boss got three thousand percent more money than the than the workers and also that it was a regional sized business you know everything's too big now my grandfather really started freaking out with credit cards like that's when in my family they started saying no this is like a fake economy you know you just credit cards this is dangerous you know and that

was like in the mid seventy's and then the eighty's in the ninety's and they're just handing out credit cards and unsolicited mailings of credit cards and that's all money creation. who are these guys and frick and delaware and self the kota is it just a bunch of computers in like post office boxes and these people just sit around and create ten thousand dollars credit lines dislike being being bing bing bing bing sounds like the robot zoo. for the other robots or that i've gotten i'm in the robots well i just feel like there's so much money being created that just goes to the military industrial. job creating whatever make and uniforms and bullets and are they ever going to stop spending all this money on the military and is anybody ever going to really address that reality i just hate the way right wingers. never

seem to. talk about when you mention the fact that your grandfather who was living the american dream had moved to california that he became very freaked out by the introduction of credit cards and that of course did not happen until the split between our money and gold there was no anchor to reality you do you think that moment of the credit explosion that was able to follow the divorce of our currency from gold that that same sort of moment was a similar sort of event to one hundred fifty two people sitting here at the tonic liquors watching nuclear explosions just on the horizon and that's the same thing that happened in one nine hundred seventy one when we went off the gold standard it was a similar moment that people were like is it all going to melt down no it exploded in a beautiful mushroom cloud of debt right and then we just forgot he said oh this is just inch every measure just to keep the speculators all those gold swept through

ours from rising on the part of market it was the french they knew we were screwed in vietnam they'd already been screwed there for ten years or something and they're like oh man these guys are not there and just leaving money constantly so they're like yeah get the gold. wow those are the guys that like the explosions it's the same energy all right well let's put it a couple more palm trees maybe alex we're going to have to wrap this up you're going to have a masterpiece there are you going to sell it for big you've got to download your alber wallet and we're going to get you some show. if you bet some hard money i'm down i've got about one and it set me up. ok let's see if. you're going to get a really good place in the robot i know. that's that's my goal right.

there you know you told us hold up hold up buddy hold on. i just remembered stacy wants to buy this painting so if you want to buy this painting right here i want to use to avril walter but since you money to buy this you got it let's do it done deal i want one dollar per square inch at two hundred eighty eight what comes in a currency would you like that in what you could hook me up to some app or some your praise the app you must have our brain is the crypto wall of best redefining crypto wall it's just going to. be are. you doing now going to the average down to it. i get excited. this is twenty eight crypto currencies plus bit ten it's an index of ten cryptocurrency. wow there it's coming i got it what more do we need one more to

this one need you want because i want the original all right good choice i'm going to run. right now thank you love you weren't bloody but if you know you're my best favor as i think collecting you for years now i got to run now by our. alison born in one thousand sixty five and this led me to manufacturing but this is something we saw there in westchester county before like him kind of destroyed the whole. cadillac sort of look up to living the couple movies well of course. you know that year. when he started making. like a baby blues. and that was the flick and then that movie. you know that was a little earlier but with richard dreyfus you know. by these cadillacs they start making money is selling side and then in the seventy's things. it started by any

means and then explained it to the sound. of music. and the fan said you know that's the last leg of the you know what it's like except that it's got to get a little taller legs to reveal. all that had to for walt's. feet. feel. thanks to. effie i'm.

oh. ah ah. ah. ah ah ah ah. like there's someone else living inside of me like controlling my body. the byproduct of that drug is the cause like some peer pressure.

because it will only need one to zombie it's crazy. you know we don't have to do anything it's not our fault this is crazy and all that. shit here's cosmetic things to get rid of. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution to correct the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it just a lawyer i mean your list book video and the bill is that i live splendid all of the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty four. those who took the lead invested over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure

a secure. prosperous and democratic you. have to be interviewed and they're free to understand what happened here the p.m.c. the media or small contractors to win the war the feeling she took came here was a contract to train a unit and to create a from scratch and then to go into combat and the g.p. limited objectives. to. be set up for the past couple of years from the dragon pits and that these islands of plastic but the reality is the maze to be a ship in a scavenge in this fine layer of micro plastics was. very. the biggest thing and shock to me is that we've never had an empty troll.

like the contents of the something of an albatross. people obviously come in they just throw them into the water as disposal it may not be harmful for that little fish that eats one fragment of plastic but once it makes its way up to us in the food chain it's getting to levels that are harmful. i swear to formalise soon the duties of the national executive as president of venezuela i want to do you invent his way to the president is elected by washington . on his way in chaos president maduro accuses the us of an attempted to ostend don't trump recognize the country's south declared the interim leader. very very clearly on further and would like a sugar daddy thing but all up.
