on 18 June, Tim had Kingsley Wilson, as the guest, once more.
Hannah & Ian were the co-hosts.
*The panel discusses the benefits of Donald Trump's election which is, according to Tim, "a real president". This leads into discussing issues with the United States being overly democratised & ways to address it: 1:25:52-1:31:57

-Ian may be imbibing too much antizionism from leftist sources, & started hearing the argument of how American colonists illegally immigrated, too, as he leans towards more sympathy for illegal aliens. Tim does himself no favours by comparing illegal aliens to a worker who is also a "heroin addict" & removing them is akin to making them go through rehab, rather than working until they die of an overdose. Ian retorts that "ripping them out of their homes, all at once", could cause damage to wider society. Tim says no one is arguing for all illegals to be removed, all at once, & shifts to replace heroin in his argument with alcoholism, which still leaves the illegal alien as the one being harmed, not wider society.
The more apt comparison would be continuing to employ a kleptomaniac that nicks things from his fellow employees or worksite, but is willing to work more hours in exchange for less pay. This affects fellow employees & the business overall, but management chooses to keep this person on, as it benefits them. In short, Ian is misguided in his kindness, & Tim is terrible at argumentation, but what else is new:
-Tim asks if the panel would pardon their son, if they were convicted of the same crimes as Hunter Biden. Everyone else says they would not, but Tim says he would. Though later goes on to specify it would be for the gun charges, after some requests for clarification:
-Ian talks about "corruptive power" of fame/wealth, as this results in them becoming detached from reality & "the common man". Apropos of nothing, Tim has been living in his compound, in the middle of the woods, funded by super-chats, for how long?:
-Ian wonders if the Secret Service contemplated "fragging" Joe Biden's dog, Commander, after it had gone on its biting spree, as was done to un-liked commanders in the Vietnam War. Also, Ian offends all the Pit Mommies in the audience by saying you must treat dogs as "deadly weapons" "if they can kill":
-Tim is not swayed by a sob story of someone talking about their
DACA recipient relative being a good person. Tim argues for charging the parents of DACA recipients with human trafficking over bringing children into the nation:
On 19 June, Tim had Libertarian Party Chairman Angela McArdle, & comedian Dave Smith, as the guests.
Hannah was the sole co-host, as Ian was banished for his toxic compassion.
Hannah did not get much time to speak, but Dave more than made up for it to keep Tim from completely dominating the air time.
*Tim brings up opposition to the placement of
a Pride street mural in Huntington, WV, which leads to a discussion of how voluntary taking taxes to do things you disagree with actually is. This morphs into how the expanded franchise leads to expanded government, etc.: 1:03:11-1:25:53

-Tim seems to think that "regular people" go onto betting websites, wagering money on their favoured presidential candidates:
-Tim asks Dave whether he is voting for Chase Oliver or Donald Trump. Dave is uncertain either can earn his vote. This leads into Angela, Dave, & Tim discuss the benefits of Joe Biden's ongoing failures, as it offers a chance to further cohere the opposition into action, & "acceleration":
-Considering his
previous anger at the Libertarian Party's Ross Ulbricht fixation, I was surprised Tim gave Angela no flack for bringing up the man without appending how he
supposedly hired a contract killer, or elevating a very flawed person into unwarranted importance:
-Tim asks Angela & Dave their opinion on vaccine mandates, imposed by private businesses. Dave explains that, in the context of the COVID-19 vaccine, it must be understood as part of a "giant statist operation", which made maximum public pressure for people to comply. Tim disagrees, as he pins the "falling in line", as part of having a culture which lacks cohesion, but loses his train of thought towards the tail end:
-Tim compares some members of the Libertarian Party's dogged dedication to holding to ideals, such as open borders, is akin to those held by communists. Angela agrees, while Dave nuances it to say that holding to ideals, as a way to extract concessions, is good, but the completely open borders arguments of some libertarians is "antithetical to freedom":
-Angela decides the end of the episode is the time to bring up how the FBI claimed to have evidence of the Libertarian Party's Facebook page being "compromised by a hostile foreign government", as a sign that censorship is beginning to make a return on social media.
Angela had posted about this in April, but Tim was taken aback at never having heard of this, before now. Angela claims the FBI did not disclose any information to her, as it was an ongoing investigation & Facebook directed her to contact the FBI for more information. The page has not been shut down, but logs of who accessed the it have been wiped from the records:
-Tim defends his "landslide victory" predictions from 2020. Tim claims he was "completely correct in his analysis", that the 49-state landslide was "a meme", & blames "the Democrat's shadow campaign, which I could not have predicted" for being wrong. Tim could just say he was wrong, but no, he needs to add this caveat that he was right, but for etc. etc.:
