I love that dave has totally bought into the whole “writers live in the basement” meme on Simon’s channels!
Yes... "meme"
Lore might be a better term, but I love that he's reinforcing it and building on it.
ALLEGEDLY
If you haven’t bought into it then you aren’t a real fan of Business Blaze!
@@Sniperboy5551 even Simon forgot it was once a blaze upon business last video🤷♂️
Simon is collecting writers in his basement like Thanos with the Infinity Stones.
It's weird he understood the reference
Working for Simon ... is inevitable.
All writers will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.
More like how the Time Keepers collect infinity stones
Trazyn collecting artifacts and people/items from empires throughout the Galaxy lol
Dave understood the assignment. Well done on your first blaze!!!

Q: How do you know a politician is lying?
A: His lips are moving
Someone had to say it.
Q: How do you know the CIA WASN'T involved in the Kennedy assassination?
A: He's dead, isn't he?
I know it's a complete non sequitur, but your format reminded me of it.
"If your lips are moving, if your lips are moving
If your lips are moving, then you're lyin', lyin', lyin', baby"

@@joehemmann1156 also in all reality. Cuz the ppl responsible owned up to it on their deathbeds like good mobsters do. The CIA knew but Kennedy had just halved their funding. Both Gambino and Bonanno admitted yep cuz he went after us after we made him president. Oswald had ties to the same street crews on the block his assassin Ruby(a blooming Patsy who had to make good for screwups or be killed shortly himself) came from. It's fairly obvious when your into mafia history exactly what happened...
@@movingforward3030 Of the 757 comments as of 13OCT22, your's is by far the most disturbing. I hope 3 letter agencies and large entities are watching your every keystroke, movement, and breath you take, every move you make, that someone is watching you...
@@urbanracer032 I'm assuming that was sarcasm... But sure, quotes are scary.
The worst lie we ever will hear is when Simon runs for mayor and tells us Danny was never caged in his basement.
Danny was never caged. He could move as freely as the ball and chain would allow.
he's the one who feeds the rest of us still in cages
Technically that is true, as Danny was never caged in the basement, he was on a long chain to the radiator.
*allegedly. Danny was allegedly in the Blazement. There may or may not have been others present at various points in time.
@@andiward7068 I know ETA has to be down there, still.
3:24 it’s remarkably inconsistent in the US. Sometimes a politician has an affair and loses everything. Other times they can get away with sexual assault, sometimes even boasting about it without facing consequences
Depends which party he belongs to I guess. The ones who love their evangelical Christians somehow just ignore all their principles, just to get a ban on abortion
Or sex with a Chinese spy and give secrets, yet still keep position in the party with no repercussions.
@@stephjoviAnd homosexuals. And women in politics. And anti-racism laws.
@@JoshSweetvale a ban on them? Ah they seem to have women in politics. But yeah definitely the rest. Gotta obay the biblical laws that they like that helps with ignoring the others
@@JoshSweetvale Wtf you talking about?
Literally one sentence into the script and I'm already a fan of Dave! lol
Must be nice for David that he isn’t writing about brutal murder this time lmao
Unless you count the callous slaughter of the truth.
I don't think Simon understands his personal humor image is the type that of someone who just doesn't or doesn't realize he is the only one tolerating his shit opinion HAHA. He is the not fun guy at a party! Not to mention timestamp 16:00. The tragic loss of life on both sides sounds like you value the white far more than the brown!!! Like 185k-210k compared to 6k Americans and around less than 180 29%-32% more Iraqis died than UK or US soldiers! So is Simon is either blindly ignorant or just a nob!
"That's a very long way to introduce Dave" this is the way of the blaze!
the worst part of Boris Johnsons party's were him trying to claim he didn't know what the rules were at the time.
Now I want to live in Simon's basement. It sounds like everyone is having a grand old time.
It does sound fun!!
Even so…I don’t know if I could survive on just Simons foraged (possibly deadly) mushies & floor-water.
If I can bring foodstuffs, I’ll meet you there! 😝
@@candicebrazell3531 I don't like mushrooms. It's a texture thing. But, yeah, we can smuggle food in. We might have to pay off the guard. Perhaps, it's Peter; Simon's fake plant.
Until you die from CO2 poisoning from them burning the rejected introductions.
Simon collects only the BEST writers.
But they're out of Lucky Strikes!
Simon's spastic shrug at 14:27 better become a meme.
I would like to second that.
I would like to third that
Make it so
Let's Goooooooooooooo.
Memers, start your engines!
"Tried to get comfortable in a pile of Danny's rejected introductions"
I mean three should be material enough for a pretty comfortable bed.
I'm kidding, Danny, you're awesome. And welcome to the Blazement, David!
You definitely need a second episode of this. A little dated but the Marion Berry crack scandal was full of him lying and sweating while grinding his teeth.
And he was re-elected Mayor of DC.... You can't this stuff up.
The thing with Monica Lewinsky is that she was an intern and may have felt pressured to have sex with him to keep her job. He may not have said it explicitly, but as a woman, when your male boss suggests sexual relations, I'd be worried about my job if I said no. That's why it was such a big deal, not just that it was an affair.
Or maybe SHE was the one taking initiative?
This. It’s a huge power imbalance. That’s the issue here. If it was just a married man shagging someone random they met in a bar, it wouldn’t be so bad.
But regardless of who initiated it, someone as an intern shouldn’t ever be acceptable as a partner if you are working together. If you are a boss, you cannot ethically shag your employees. It’s not possible. Just choose someone else, or find them another job if you want to have sex.
There is no doubt that an intern working for the president of the United states would feel pressure if asked for sexual favors. That's the ultimate quid pro quo. But Clinton was impeached for lying under oath not for the act itself.
I don’t think so, she was “in love” with him. I’ve read an entire document from the DOJ and it’s pretty clear that she thought he was going to run off with her or something.
@TerryEnby Lewinski herself has publicly stated that she was pursuing him, so everything that you just said really doesn’t apply to that situation.
Sam's meme game is criminally strong 💪
It was the fart sounds that did it.
Dave definitely gets it. Kudos on the banger of a first script, Dave!
Hey Dave! welcome to the basement family! I loved the script, and I hope Danny, Kevin and you get to stick around for a while. It seems to me that some writers inexplicably cease to exist sometimes and are never mentioned again... If you have any intel on a man by the name of Callum Howe, I'd be very interested to hear about it.
Thankyou
Any time a writer is missing on a UA-cam vid it's generally vacation or they're charging more than someone else.
What about a collaborative script?
"This is just a military exercise ..., we are not going to invade ...." Surprised that one wasn't in there .., perhaps too early
“What are you dumb westerners talkin about, this is all just war games” -Putler probably
My favourite outrageous lie told by a politician ever was that of Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf, Iraq's Information Minister, when he confidently declared that "there are no American tanks in Baghdad" ... whilst at that exact moment you could clearly see American tanks rolling past behind him.
That footage still cracks me up to this day 😂 that dude was adorable with the level of conviction he had. Just a shame that the Information Minister was fed completely incorrect information (for the time, weirdly most of his "funny" predictions _actually did come true_ - just a little later than he was expecting).
Simon needs to do a video on how the Iraq War was started. Prob not on Brain Blaze, but maybe Warographics so that way he can give a more informed opinion on the topic to the audience.
Including how the CIA and many other agencies all said there wasn't any evidence that there were WMDs, and there was evidence in which showed there were no WMDs. Basically, the intelligence communities of several nations said that Iraq had no WMDs and posed no threat, so they just picked a few things out of context, made up stuff, and, as Simon likes to point out, Iraq used to have WMDs.
Every canister of chemical weaponry found in Iraq after the 2003 invasion was found to have predated the 1991 invasion and were damaged, leaking, corroded, or otherwise unusable. Many were hazardous to be around because of leaks and puddles of the chemicals. All of them were found in small groups, which the American forces missed during their first search. They just found the discarded leftovers of the first war - something few people seem to remember.
I think he has a good point to make if we give him a second to express a complete thought 😮😊
Now you just need a writer in your basement named Nick. Then you'd have my brothers: Nick and Dave, and myself, Danny. 🤣
I think this is one of my favourite Blazes. Great Job Dave! Danny and Dave are the new blaze power couple.
Only 21 minutes long? This should be 12 hours long to cover all this.
Maybe just a Live Stream?
I'm sure there will be 30+ episodes of this one.
They limited it to one lie per politician...
Seriously think Trump deserves his own hour long just to list. I believe he holds the world record for blatant confirmed lies.
@@bayoubilly5176 As if an hour would cover that bloviating windbag.
"It's not a recession "
Here's a sweet historical one: In June 1961, Walter Ulbricht, the head of the GDR (aka East Germany) said "Niemand hat die Absicht, eine Mauer zu errichten" ("nobody intents to build a wall") a jolly 2 months before the GDR built the Berlin Wall in order to stop its citizens from fleeing into West Germany. A wall that would eventually last 28 years and that was protected by armed guards who'd shoot would-be escapees to stop them from crossing the border.
I think it's rather ironic that even though the SED (East Germanies soviet-installed communist party) claimed that the wall was an "anti-capitalist protection barrier", all the guns and razorwire and mines were pointed inwards whereas the evil western capitalist on the other side not only were free to approach the wall without risk, but could also visit east berlin if they wanted to.
You guys should make a compilation of these cold opens so we have proof ready so that Simon can be declared legally insane.
"Niemand hat die Absicht eine Mauer zu errichten" - Walter Ulbricht on the 15th of June, 1961. Two months before the Berlin Wall was erected.
What a perfect way to start my day! A brand new BB and I get to watch it only minutes after it was uploaded! Thank you Simon, Sam, and Dave! I miss Danny, but I did enjoy the guest writer Dave. Today will be a good day!
Back in 2005 in Iraq my army unit was on a clearance mission we found a stash of artillery rounds containing vx nerve gas,it was a couple hundred rounds
Media focused hard on the "there were no nukes" and conflated those with *all* WMDs. You and others I know who served reported finding some chemical weapons. With the delays, plenty of time to destroy or hide others and little evidence of their prior existence.
Donnie: "I'm a stable genius."
Biden: "We didn't have a vaccine when we came into office."
He might as well have said 'ima fairy princess'
Joe: I'm of perfect mental health
I declassified them just by thinking about it."
@@Master_Yoda1990 To be fair, "Donnie" set the bar very, very, very low.
Silvio Berlusconi and Herman Göring would have had an epic bromance.
IRAQ: Simon, "could be" isnt enough of a reason to go to war.. you need evidence before committing to war..
Ahh, we British do love to have an inquiry. The purpose of which is to examine the obvious and widely already known so as to appear to be taking things seriously and then proceed to do nothing about whatever was being enquired upon. Thus in reality an inquiry is another tax payer expense designed to pay some lord a sum to chair and enable politicians to save face.
That could have been (and perhaps were) said by Sir Humphrey Appleby. :)
We do the same thing in Australia.
Well put. And surprisingly funny! (Albeit infuriating.) That's a damn fine example of calling bullshit on something.
The aim is to take long enough that the rage has died and someone has made enough money...
I love Simon's off the cuff rendition of March of the Gladiators
I didn't forget about you Sam.
Simon may have, but I didn't.
While Danny is still #1, Dave has already jumped into #2 for the growing list of blaze writers.
3:05 Sam!!! 😂😂😂😂😂 omg STOP ✋🏾 🛑
Watch it again and pay attention to all the fart sounds he added.
I did not have sexual relations with that woman I merely moistened my cigar
"If you like your Dr, you can keep your Dr"
That French leader joke caught me off guard so hard 😆
Sam really nailed that one.
"It doesn't speak well of their moral character" when referring to any Clinton begs the question: WHAT moral character?
Berlesconi (oof spelling?) Deserves his own video! Either here or def on Biographics but his story is mad enough for Casual Criminalist...... and for Simon there is no dismembering children as far as I'm aware! So a lighter one for a change!
Those flagrantly eschewed introductions are how we Blaze! Stop burning them for the heat, and start sending them up for a read w/ attendant Simon anger-vein.
The issue with Clinton beyond being a personal matter, is that Lewinski was 19 at the time. And she was his subordinate. With him being the president out of all things. So that's a HUGE power dynamics issue with someone who's barely legal.
She wasn’t 19 she was 22. Also, the main issue was that he lied under oath, not that he had an affair. He was impeached for perjury.
Poor Sam and the insanely long title at 12:47 (I don't have any spare keyboards either)
A video on Trump’s lies would be a dozen hours long, if not more.
They'd have to create and commit an entire channel to cover those lies. It would be several hundred hours long and would most likely take half a decade to complete.
Alleged lies. A video of false accusations by Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers would last days... Weeks.
Probably not. Not all of his lies are funny. For example, his obsession with crowd sizes and TV ratings is just weird.
Given most politicians are clowns, the circus themed farce is perfectly appropriate... :P
So excited to hear that Danny & Kevin have a new buddy in the basement
Hello Kari
Dave coming in there knowing the lore, making the intro a little bit longer and embracing all the Blazement memes. I like him!
The Clinton affair only came to light as well because Linda Tripp recorded her conversations with Monica.
@ 8:47 I immediately right of the Life and Death Brigade and am so glad you mentioned it, Sam!
I think that's the best cold open in Business Blaze history.
My tablet vibrated at 13:07 when Simon said gang r word ...
Disagree about Clinton… although it was consensual, he was senior to her in the chain of command and if the relationship went south, he could ruin her career - not that it didn’t happen anyway, but… Or she could be given perks others didn’t get. If a CEO of a major company had an affair with an employee, he or she would be gone in a heartbeat. Now if the other person was not a White House employee, it would have been something between Bill, Hillary and Monica.
Also he lied to congress while under oath which is a major crime itself.
How do ppl have such a strong opinion without once looking up what she has to say? So weird and counter productive... Lauren , read Monica's side...
It also helped that Republicans were already out to find something to impeach him on, and the thing they had been investigating wasn't going anywhere.
I'm rewatching Brain Blaze (I remember when it was Buisness Blaze) and I just realized, on the 10th of October, 5 days ago as of writing this now, BB has turned 3 years old. Congrats Fact boy
I always imagine trump riding round on a tiny tricycle with that same circus music playing 😄
And now that Biden is in charge it’s the country that’s riding around on a tiny tricycle with circus music playing 😭
@@IlmarBeekman It would help if people like you stopped thinking presidents had a magic wand they wave to have the economy suddenly be theirs' to take credit for as soon as they step into office. What did you all THINK was going to be the result of Republicans' tax reform bill, when it started off as having a trillion $ price tag that Republicans said would pay for itself despite not having any mechanism to do so except the myth of trickle-down economics?
Not even 2 minutes in and it's so good 🤣
Some COULD say that Simon, from childhood (possibly from an egg), has manipulated politics to such an extent, that all his writers willingly prefer to stay in his basement. That is the power that is Simon.
Hmm, I never realized Simon could be a highly developed egg 🤔
I feel like Simon is saving up for a wizard beard!
Simon, Simon, Simon. the issue with Clinton was that he had relations with a SUBORDINATE. like. he was her BOSS. and not just that but also President of the United States. you can't really say that something is wholly 100% consensual when the other person has the power to completely ruin your life IF HE CHOSE TO if you deny him. whether Clinton would or would not is a moot point. the fact that that is something that is on the table at all makes the actions reprehensible.
also keeping in mind that Monica was 22 YEARS OLD at the time. and yet, who did the media focus in on and put the blame on? the 40+ year old married man? no. it was Monica. her life WAS ruined because of it during that time.
now THAT OUT OF THE WAY. he wasn't impeached for having an affair. he was impeached for PERJURY. he LIED UNDER OATH. that's what he was impeached over. though honestly, the fact that we're still having people argue about whether a boss-subordinate relationship is or isn't good (/LOOKS AT NED FORMER-TRYGUY) just shows that we haven't improved much since the '90s
Thank you! This is exactly what I was thinking the whole time he was talking about affairs not being illegal
Yeah sadam didn't develop weapons of mass destruction he brought them from the US & UK they all got destroyed after the first gulf War. Ultimately Iraq never had the facilities to make weapons of mass destruction.
Welcome to the blazement. Hopefully Simon provides more rations
Simon, you are missing one of the important points about the affair between Lewinsky and Clinton: He was her superior at work - he was the President! - that put him in a position of power over Ms Lewiski = making it harder for her to say no - whether it was conscious or subconscious- it would be harder for her to say no.
It was logical to think they could have the weapons. To normal people. The jump makes perfect sense. But the issue is, that bush not only didn't have any evidence to suggest they did. He had direct Intel proving they didn't. If it was just a lack of evidence it'd be one thing, but it went deeper then that.
Yup, so many ppl here either don’t know history or are willingly stupid
Exactly!
Oh man, best use of a Gilmore Girls clip I've seen in a long time
As a medical doctor and a former archeologist, I both give you my approval and blessing.. amen
Welcome Dave/David
Screaming about underage sex workers...excellent content for my coworker to walk in on. Also, my daughter asked why are there pancakes in the yard, mushrooms!
Fracking-A!!! I gotta remember to plug my headphones in BEFORE I start these videos in public...that was awkward 😅
My husband once walked in while I was listening the Brain Blaze without my headphones. It was right at an inappropriate-out-of-context rant from Simon and a porn meme clip from Sam. Awwwwwkward!
Simon could start a whole new channel based on lies Trump has told alone...
He could retire off all the lies that Biden has said in his who career.
Where can I send a "house/basement" warming gift for Dave? He needs some new candles, some non psychedelic mushrooms for dinner along with his share of the magic spoon, if the red solo cup supply is running low for them to catch any rain water then I would like to send something for that purpose, and anything else that might make is corner of the basement more comfortable. This script was fantastic and Sam was on point once again! Loved the episode Simon! There is no longer just a Brain Blaze Trinity, it has expanded into some other shape society.
Next lie
Liz Truss 'I have a plan'
Right now shes basically Micheal Caine at the end of the Italian Job
There was definitely evidence available that showed that Saddam Hussein was not one to assist religious extremist terrorists, bin Laden in particular. (See "Bin Laden: The Man Who Declared War on America" by Yosef Bodansky which was published in 1999.) Saddam was definitely a bad dude but the reasoning for the invasion of Iraq was total BS.
Strippers and "Dance of the Gladiators" song was not an opening I expected.
perfect impression of chirac. 5 out of 5 baguettes!
how is this episode not 4 hours long?
My friend gave her kids only 3 letter names. Her theory is if they couldn't spell them then they were fecked! One of them was a Max 😂
I think they lose their jobs as a result of losing the government and people's confidence. If you don't have the integrity to stay true to a spouse or follow rules, what's to keep you from spilling sensitive information to another government? Not that any politicians have strong moral fiber anyway, they've got their own business daddies to keep happy...allegedly 😉
Uhm, have you met the Republican party?
Simon swinging his arm around and doing the circus song will always lice in my head rent free as a GIF with audio
The reason Sadam didn't want inspectors to check on his WMDs is because he had already used them. So while we where wrong that they where a potential threat, the truth was even worse. He had used them on his own people, killing entire villages and then bulldozed their bodies into mass graves.
Bill Clinton impression is an easy one. Just do an old man impression that is holding back a sneeze
accurate
I feel like this video needed a lot more 'allegedlys' 😅
welcome to the blazement, Dave,
Oh the comments section will be bastardly today, I tell you.
From the get go Simon already had me laughing
Fqctboy you're an absolute LEGEND
Thank you for reminding me of my love for Dylan Moran ^_^
*WE BLAZIN BOIS!*
GO ON YOU FUCKIN LEGENDS!
i'm with Simon, yes, we saw chemical weapons used in Iraq prior to the US invasion
I was going to say the same thing. Sadam gassed Kurds while the world watched and did nothing.
Silvio Berlusconi has de second longest "Controversies" section on Wikipedia.
Welcome, David! The comments section hereby vows to smuggle you one bonus Lucky Strike for each "Business Blaze" reference you smuggle into the script.
They had billboard ads saying, our prices are dropping lower than the presents pants.
Of course Tom Cruise looks good... he has hundreds of thousands of dollars of botox and other face lift proceedures LOL
Welcome, Dave! Regarding names, my husband goes by Matt and even put that on his driver's license. He only ever put "Matthew" on a passport and our marriage license, so I joked, "Who the heck is this Matthew fellow I'm marrying?" I also know a guy whose legal name is Mat, so...
Simon should do a cold read of the comments section about the lore of all his channels!
it could make a good animated short series with Simon throwing food scraps down a hole then pulling scripts up like its a well while the writers are chained slave ship style to desks an Peter is a cruel task master burning them if they work too slow or their introduction is too long all to ever present aroma of rotting turtle
When Tom Cruise in Interview With The Vampire is drinking the rat blood from a fancy wine glass and comments "it gets cold so quickly" that would have been a reference worthy of a chef's kiss
I was literally watching a legal Eagle video about trump when this came out lol
Same
Ew
That guy is obsessed with Trump, to the point of it being a mental illness. I enjoyed his channel until he completely went off the rails with hatred towards anyone vaguely associated with Trump.
Shout out to Sam! This is a great edit.
let’s make a 3h episode on Trump, you’d still have material for a part 2 and part 3
Could you even cite a few substantial bold faced lies? Or are you only counting meaningless exaggerations and harmless fibs?
@@xAy3x ”the election was stolen”? ”I’m an extremely stable genious”?
@@xAy3x ..."'I'm innocent"'?
@@noyourewrong599 Neither of those are examples of substantial or outright lies, they are _opinions_ there is a distinct difference. I say I believe a Times article that straight up confirms the election was "fortified" through social media suppression, main stream media manipulation, ballot harvesting, and many other methods of chicanery. Not to mention the numerous other questionable instances of potential duplicity, that were just dismissed without dutiful investigation. Just because *you* believe the narrative that the election was "the most secure election ever" doesn't make it true.
Just because something is hard to prove, especially when so many people hate you, doesn't mean you aren't being sincere. I could say dogs are better than cats, doesn't mean I'm right or have proof. You could think you're a "genious" (whatever that is), I'd argue you're a dunce, they're _opinions_
Examples of outright lies would be "I was raised in a Puerto Rican community" "I confronted a gang leader named corn pop" "I was arrested in South Africa" "inflation is at zero percent" "a 9mm with blow your lung out" "the bullet out of an AR-15 travels five times as rapidly as a bullet shot out of any other gun" "I'm not going to ban fracking" "I'm not going to cancel the keystone pipeline" all said by Biden, and those are just the few I can remember off the top of my head..
So, judging by what you've poorly provided, I think it's going to be exceptionally difficult to produce a 3 hour long video about "Trump's lies" based on 2 _opinions_ that can't even be deemed as lies.
Thank you 😊 on the facts above suddam Hussain
