He literally had to just read the news without bias and cut through the bullshit for people. All he had to do and he fucked it up.
Literally sit there, read it with the article on screen. That's how he started out and was successful and honestly? I liked it. It saved me time having to wade through a marsh of human BS to get some actual news. Most normal people don't have time for that.


I think he was using it as a reference more for "hard times a comin."
Somehow though I doubt people are that down bad that they would cancel their $5 a month support to him as the first cut they make to their budgets if they really valued his news enough to pay for it in the first place.


Also, to Tim's credit he did mention later that SVB cut their risk management for equity policies in a later segment.

He's said numerous times that he'll dump thousands into crypto projects he knows nothing about because they seem cool. A lot of that was happening around the peak of the bull market during covid. He's had to have lost more than he's gained.

Considering he buys $600 jars of honey and $15,000 Chinesium meteor swords, I can't imagine his finances are good. In a bunch of the early Cast Castle episodes he'd walk into a store and splurge hard, buying all kinds of expensive fossils and geodes not only for himself but random employees of the store, a bunch of e-bikes, and pool tables.

He's such a huge mark for financial scams that I'm starting to question his school of hard knocks Chicago upbringing. He's probably lost his rent money on 3 card monte before.

And not a single person would fault you for that. The only person who would benefit from financial advice from him is probably Jim Cramer.

This is the video representation of the word 'whiplash'. I know we all joke about Tim flip flopping around, but in this video he goes between Chicken Little and Cool Cucumber nearly ten times.

Came here to talk about this.
It feels like an old Simpsons skit.

LOL it actually is one.

Edit: one thing to keep in mind about all the banks failing is they're all tech related. Crypto and Tech investor banks. Tim seems to omit that fact. The fact the tech bubble is finally popping should surprise no one paying attention to how these businesses have been run for the past 10+ Years.


Edit 2:
Tim's second video is even worse in terms of big brain ideas. "Everyone is homeless that is why no one is working."
He equates 17 year olds not working at a restaurant as waiter to them being homeless now.


He goes in about his survivor prep garbage too. Honestly I wonder how long until he starts to sell a subscription to some kind of survivor compound for like Platinum level Timcast subscribers at this point. Apparently his big survival plan is rubbing alcohol and vitamin C supplements.

From yesterday's video, Tim was about to give financial advice but quickly corrects himself. He really wants to start something with other peoples assets (stocks, jobs, children) while not giving up anything himself.

This shocks Tim because for the past 5 or so years he has been (not giving financial advise but) saying you're basically retarded if you aren't investing everything you own into Crypto and blockchain technology. Tim truly is a soyfaced "OMG NEW TECHNOLOGY" redditor in disguise

Did we ever find out how the $1 million & change raised was spent on Subverse? Of, if it was even spent?

The journalist scum is creeping. He has to cut himself off here:

He talks about how classical liberalism has reached its limits, and though he doesn't say it explicitly, the idea is that a tolerant society tolerates too much. Yeah, that's a typical moral quandary a lot of people find themselves in. But how does he handle it?

3:24: "And so what we need is a true classic liberal or traditional liberal society, in that we expect things of you and we expect cohesion. Now for those that don't want to adhere, I don't think you do, like, authoritarian stuff with it. I think we just maintain a certain degree of moral expectations in that we say: 'hey, I don't care if you want to wear a dress and fall to the ground crying and juggle hotdogs. We don't allow that on TV.' Things like that. Maybe that's a little too harsh. Because there's free speech and all that stuff. So I-I'll - I'll - I'll - I'll walk that one back."

Oh yeah, Tim. It's coming. I can taste it. The fat brown buffalo just beneath the skin. You are literally morphing into Cenk Ugyur more every single day.

Tim is correct, of course, that as a society we should have moral foundations, but he fails to understand how we lost those foundations in the first place: we don't have a moral center anymore. Tim doesn't want to encourage people to go to church, and he thinks Hollywood and TV can fill the void of a moral center because he's a journalist and he over-estimates the importance of media consumption on people's lives because, well, he's in media and he's a narcissist, that part isn't complicated. But you can't have a moral center on TV if you don't have limitations and punishments. And that's the issue.

In an actually liberal society, there is plenty of shame and restriction and even punishment, but it is not administered by the state at the barrel of a gun, it is administered by the people around you. And with no church, and a liberal mindset, no one feels like they have the authority to restrict you from behaving immorally, even in the workplace. You have to actually be strict and firm to accomplish what Tim is talking about, especially with how far gone we are, but there's no medium by which you can deliver that kind of restriction in today's society. The only thing people actually agree is okay to shame and bash and even potentially arrest or kill over is when you are racist.

when i first heard these AI voices I was blown away at how accurate they are, but as time goes on I'm quickly noticing it is very easy to tell the difference between AI and reality. You'd think a guy like Tim with thousands of hours of content would be easy to replicate yet this one is clearly off. Granted I don't totally know how this stuff works so perhaps this is just a poorly implemented one.

I think it's less about how good the quality is, and more about how aware we are of it.

When we're used to really shitty GPS and TTS modules it's easy to be fooled by a reasonably good AI generated voice. Though once you've been exposed to a ton of different higher quality ones, and you go back and listen to the original ones that impressed people recently, especially ones you haven't heard back then, it becomes much more obvious. Probably just a matter of acclimation to listening for differences between AI and the actual human, and it becomes more obvious as more people point out the flaws you'd otherwise miss.

This AI sounds both like Jordan Peterson and Kanye, which I thought were convincing, but now hearing Tim on it as well, it sounds like a parody using the same inflections as the previous ones. That's also part of it though, you hear a pattern for the first time and you don't notice it, but by the third time you start to pick up on those patterns a lot more that makes all of the AI generated voices sound the same.

Its cute listening to Tim get upset because the other side doesn't fight back when every time the right would fight back he'd hand wave it away saying, "I don't think thats the right way to go about it". Well Tim, what exactly IS the RIGHT way to go about dealing with it? How long are people supposed to allow themselves to be attacked before they can respond in kind?

Its also funny how he thinks he's immune to what antifa is doing because he forced his way into a community he used to despise. Congrats Tim, you spent millions moving yourself and many others to an area you used to mock and make fun of. You don't fit in no matter how many chickens you buy and your neighbors and the town hates you.
