Chapter 1: Why do the holidays feel less festive this year?
really feel like it. And I am talking to people with large families and beautiful homes. This is not one of those like being a bitter guy things. This is taking the temperature of many different demographics of people and across the board, I would say people were kind of feeling the same thing that it just felt less like Christmas than it had.
And a friend of mine had a theory about that, and she might be right. She's not alone in this thought that we put so much energy and emotion into the election that the holidays this year felt kind of like a hangover. because the election was such a big, emotional, momentous event for people, that once we got to the holidays, it's kind of like, who cares?
It's kind of become a big ball of who cares. It's a lot of people in pajamas, and there's being lazy. People are ordering in. There's all kinds of articles about that people just don't want the formality of of the holidays. I mean, if you look at your Instagram feed, people are just, you know, they're in pajamas, and it's very cash. The whole thing's very casual. And maybe that's good.
Chapter 2: What does Tim Dillon think about the casual holiday trend?
Maybe we should all just live in pajamas. But it's a very casual holiday now. And it seems like that seems to be what's been decided. by people that it's going to be a casual holiday. It's not going to feel formal, which is okay. I don't know if that's good or bad. I just know that people seem to be giving up on everything across the board. It seems like it.
The food, how they look, the house, the gifts. It seems like people across the board are kind of giving up on these events and their attitude seems to be, so what? So what? That's their attitude. Give the kids some garbage and then sit in your house in a onesie and watch Torched on Netflix to roast to 2024, which no one's watching. I'm just kidding. Maybe they are.
I'm asking if people are watching. Remember, let me be very clear. If you invite me to do your thing, and even the smallest part of me doesn't like it, I'm going to publicly destroy it and make your life a living hell. Ask the producers at Joker. Ask these people. If even a small part of me, for whatever reason, doesn't even have to be a good reason, finds that my time has been wasted.
Okay, my very valuable time I could spend driving around or looking at houses I have no intention of buying or all the things I spend my time doing. If I feel even for a second that my time was wasted, I will go on a scorched earth campaign against whatever you have spent years working on. I have no respect for whatever you've done.
I will publicly drag your name through the mud and the name of your family. Your children will get attacked at school and they will come home bleeding and you will go, what happened? Tim Dillon said you made a shit movie and I got jumped. I will direct the anger of this country at you.
All the uncertainty about the drones and whatever, food insecurity or poverty, income inequality, I will direct it all at you and whatever you've done and wasted my time with, be careful. I hope this doesn't dissuade you from hiring me. I really hope that. Because it puts a good amount of pressure on you. But I will be very clear. I will be a problem.
I will turn the people in the production against you one by one. I will start a whisper campaign about things you may or may not have done to an intern in a green room. I will never stop. If I feel even slightly that I'm not being taken care of, that I have been paid unfairly, that my time has been wasted. Or if I just slightly have creative differences with you.
If I have even the smallest creative difference with you, I will attack the production using sock puppet dummy accounts across the internet. I will hire people in foreign countries to spam videos Every corner of the internet until the consensus has been reached that you and your project are a failure and should never work again.
If I even feel for a second that you were mean to me at the coffee truck. While I was getting my coffee, if you were dismissive of me at the coffee truck, I will begin a nightmarish campaign against you. It will be like nothing you've ever seen. CIA level manipulation. And again, I don't want you to not hire me because of that. I want you to involve me in what you're doing.

Chapter 3: How are tech people perceived in American society?
Are tech people really excited... When you've spoken to tech people, I'm asking, in your life, are they... Do they love America? Is that their thing? That they adore this country? Or... Do they really, really love tech? Meaning the things that can be achieved. A lot of them are talking about going to Mars, living forever, implanting, merging with AI so that AI doesn't defeat us.
But are they in love with America? And so this is a real question. Are the tech people using Trump to get what they want, to get government contracts, to get money. Do they think they can? And by the way, I don't think anyone's going to get one over on Trump. I think Trump has instincts that you can only have if you're a casino magnet raised in Queens, New York.
Like I believe he has instincts about people that are, they're not, even if they, and I'm not saying it is, But if elements of the tech community are thinking that they're going to get one over on Trump and use Trump, I don't think Trump will allow that to happen. He doesn't allow himself to be used in that manner.
I think this is becoming the first big rift where people are starting to question if the love of Trump and his policies, is genuine amongst people in tech, or are they trying to launder their ideas through the MAGA movement? Does Elon really care? Do these guys really care? Do they care about American workers? Do they care about...
the country of America more than they care about what they can use this administration potentially to do, to accomplish. Because people in tech want to do things. They have ideas. Those ideas need money. Those ideas need, you know, the permission to happen. They need contracts. They... There is a question here about like, I know tech people. I've met tech people. I've had dinner with tech people.
Very smart, interesting. They don't talk a lot about America, to be honest. They just don't. They don't really talk about, you know, they have, they reference America. It's referenced. It's part of something. But it's not their main thing. They want to terraform other planets. They want to merge with AI. They want to live forever. They want to upload their consciousness to it.
They're not really... They don't go on and on and on about the forgotten middle class, except to say that they should all have UBI. We should give them all crypto UBI or whatever that, whatever Sam Altman's trying to do over there where he's giving you biometric crypto when you're born so you don't have to go to work or whatever the case may be. These are all their ideas.
I mean, Peter Thiel, who owns Endural, this is where I get killed, but Peter Thiel, who cares at this point, right? Endural, which is Palmer Luckey's company, Palmer Luckey's a right-wing guy, they're like making drones.
And then the guy who, I forget the name of the CFO or something of Endural who's on the Bilderberg conference, it was saying recently, you could get this article, Bilderberg reinvents themself for new age. It's kind of interesting.

Chapter 4: What does Tim Dillon say about the Democrats' failure?
So he goes, a culture that venerates Corey from Boy Meets World or Zack and Slater over Screech and Saved by the Bell or Stefan over Steve Erklund, Family Matters, will not produce the best engineers. Man. So he's coming out and going, everyone should be a nerd. Everyone should be. And I'm telling you right now, they listen to this show.
And I'm telling you right now, the tech people, I predicted this. More movies like Whiplash, fewer reruns of Friends, more math tutoring, fewer sleepovers, more weekend science competitions, fewer Saturday morning cartoons, more books, less TV, more creating, less chilling. How about more white people, less Indians? How about that? How about more white people, less Indians?
Indians didn't come to this country. No offense. But if we're going to critique the country, how about more people that actually came to the country? and fought in those wars. Was there a lot of Indians that fought in the Civil War? I'm confused. I just don't know. It sounds like a racist point, but it's actually not. It's been made by people like Tucker Carlson and Ann Coulter.
And if they're racist, then I'm racist. No one's racist no more. But it's my point. I understand what he's saying. I wasn't a fan of friends. I liked Frazier. I understand we need more math competitions and shit like that. But this is the type of shit that is going to eat that movement from the inside.
He's basically going out there and saying, by the way, we need to import people because no one in this country is up to the task. So we need generations of people What is the sleep? What a weird move. No sleep, less sleepover. What about smart kids having a sleepover? This is going to be a big problemo, by the way, for them. It is because these people don't give a shit about America.
They just don't. No offense to these people. They just don't. I know them. They don't care. They don't care about the country. It means nothing to them. I know these little dead-eyed monster kids. And by the way, God bless them. But they are not excited about America. They're excited about, like, you know, leaving Earth. What gets these people going is this idea that we can leave the planet.
Forget America. Earth doesn't really interest them. Earth. Earth. So the reality is you have an Indian guy lecturing Americans saying that we can't hire any of you. We need to bring in more Chinese people. Is that not why people voted for Trump? So they didn't hear that? Couldn't they have heard that from Kamala Harris? Wasn't that the whole point?
Wasn't the whole point of the Kamala Harris campaign? Was it Americans should just shut up and die in a shed? And now these guys are kind of aping that, you know? Wasn't the whole point of her campaign that dumb? I mean, that could have been out of the Democratic playbook. Americans are stupid and they can't do anything. We got to bring in other people. Sorry. So this is a big issue.
Big issue, okay, for them. And DJ T, Donnie T, as my friend Chrissy D would say, Donnie T needs to reign this in here because, and I will be in Palm Beach next week, not to see him per se, but I'm not afraid of you tech faggots. My godson is Chinese. He's Chinese. He's Chinese. I will drone your shit. I'm just saying, I will be spending a lot of January in Florida. And here's the deal.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of tech workers on American jobs?
What's happening? The guy wants a boy meets world to be Chinese people. Well, you sit down and Corey does math equations and Topanga walks in with her big tits. He goes, I don't really give a shit. I'm Chinese. It seems racist. No, it's not racist. It's actually not racist. You have to actually listen to it. This exhibit in the museum is an hour. It's an hour.
And by the end of it, you realize how not racist it is. Do you get it? Benjamin Netanyahu, by the way, had a very good year, and they wrote about this. He had a very good year, even though he's been accused of a genocide and people want to try him at the Hague for war crimes. He had a very good year, and I'll tell you right now, this is the power of believing in yourself. It really is.
It's the power of believing in yourself. People can say anything they want about you, but the reality is, do you know you? People can say anything they want about... Oh, you're a bitch. Oh, you're fucking... You know what I mean? Like, oh, you talk so much shit. Oh, you're doing a genocide and killing children by the minute. But no matter what they say about you, you know who you are.
You know who you are. So it's about having the confidence to say it's not a genocide. It's just a little fire in the desert. I mean, this guy... They went at him for corruption. They go at him for bombing hospitals. All of these things. And you know what he says? He goes, you can talk your shit about me. I know why I bombed that hospital. So you can talk all the shit you want about me, Jessica.
But, like, I don't give a shit. Because, like, you don't know what it's like to be me. You know what I'm saying? Israel's attorney general has ordered the police to open an investigation into the prime minister's wife on suspicion of harassing political opponents. I cannot believe it. And a witness in the Israel's leader's corruption trial. By the way, can I ask a little question here?
And I'm not trying to be difficult. Is there anything left over there to kill? I'm curious. Who are they still hunting over there? There's like one cat that they haven't lit on fire. What is left? Isn't it all gone? Isn't it all gone? I mean, is there... Does this end? This is like that joke I did where I'm like, kill them all until they're dead, and then when dead, kill them again.
I mean, it's just like... Isn't everything... I mean, again, maybe I'm not the most educated person here. I would imagine that... After a year plus of indiscriminate, large-scale killing, there's not a ton left, right? It looks, let's get some photos up. Get some photos up, buddy, of the Gaza for the New Year. Yeah, make that bigger. This seems like the job's kind of done. No?
Doesn't this seem, but they want to go into Iran. They want Trump to co-sign preemptive strikes on Iran's nuclear facility. This is what they want. And then all these freaks are going, and we're going to be fighting a three-front war, and here's how much money we'll make if we're going to war. And I'm telling you right now,
I'm telling you right now, we do not need to be in a three-front war with Russia, China, and Iran. I don't know. Who do I think we are, by the way? That all of these things are going to be, like, cool. I support Taiwan. And let me tell you how far I'm willing to go. Okay? I'm telling you right now how far I'm willing to go for Taiwan. I... I don't care. I will. If China...

Chapter 6: What cultural changes are tech entrepreneurs advocating for?
It's hard to do an hour that is as not racist as what I just did. It's very difficult, actually. It's actually hard to do an hour like that that's not racist like that. But it's important that we have these fights and that we talk about these things, and it's interesting. Culture's interesting, and how things move is interesting.
My friend's leaving the golf course and then jamming out to country meet. Something's going on. It's worth noting that. I'm not saying it's good or bad. It's worth noting. You got to notice things and go, huh? Huh? Interesting. Why do they feel some kinship? Why do they feel like the only soulful music they have is country? There's no doubt country music's amazing. I love a lot of it.
Dude, George Strait and fucking Brooks and Dunn. All these people are amazing. Toby Keith, all these guys. Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, whatever, right? Who do I really like? Fucking... Martina McBride. All these people are great. They're all great. It's not a knock at all on country music.
It's just an interesting cultural moment that people are finding that's the only soulful thing left that isn't just a real, like a viral marketing campaign. A lot of other music feels... Of course, a lot of the people that I know are finding the least soulful country music, as they would... But it is interesting. It's worth noting that that's... But it's always kind of happened.
I've always seen these people like Mohegan Sun in Connecticut in like a country western line dancing bar because they don't have any cult. Connecticut's like a dearth of cult. Connecticut's just about being really rich or I don't know. I don't know what it is, but they don't know what it is either. Lobster and butter on a roll. They don't know, so they're just like, hey, hi, because they have no...
I find inauthenticity very offensive. Most people don't. Most people love it, and they market it, and it makes money. I find it kind of... Because what inauthenticity often leads to is a problem. If people have no clue who they are, They have no idea.

Chapter 7: How does Tim Dillon view the relationship between tech and politics?
This is the thing when you rip culture away from everybody and go, no, we're going to replace it all with one corporate bland monoculture that doesn't serve anyone's needs or make anyone feel connected to their environment or their history. We're just going to replace it and then you can all go insane at the pace of your choosing. That's why I find inauthenticity interesting.
So when I just see these guys leaving golf courses and, like, the only thing, they're just really driven to this country stuff, it's kind of interesting. Like, huh. Huh. TimDillaComedy.com. We've added a Sunday late show in Irvine, Orange County, one of the worst places to do comedy in the world, Orange County. It's really retarded people. I'm kidding. They're good people. I love Orange County.
I love the boats and stuff. The Irvine Improv, we've added a late show on Sunday. Go watch Torch the Year of the Rose, Torching the Year, and hear about stories from 11 months ago that you may or may not have remembered. But it is funny. And remember, as I leave, as I go, I would just let a general warning to all who seek to work with me. You're in the scope of my gun.
If you work with me for any reason you are in the scope of my gun, it will be the slightest thing. You'll go, that guy didn't even seem mad. It'll be the slightest offense. The slightest offense will set me off like you have no idea. I will triangulate the campaign of powerful forces that begin to rob you of the agency you feel like you have. You feel like you are in control. You are not.
I will slowly and methodically take everything you care about away. Your children will be afraid to go to school because the other kids are attacking them because I have said your project has ruined the world. So just know that. And by the way, but here's the flip side of that. I'm kind of fun to have around.
