Gasping for air while taking out the trash isn't exactly a highlight in anyone's day, but when it's due to a relentless respiratory virus, it becomes a story worth sharing. This episode isn't just about my struggle with an unnamed illness; it's a deep-dive into the murky waters of health crises and conspiracy theories, where the echoes of pre-COVID days resurface and the outlandish suddenly seems plausible. Alongside these reflections, we take a candid look at how current events are bending the public's ear towards ideas they once dismissed.
Do you know what a "strawman" is, and I'm not talking about the one from the Wizard of Oz? Prepare to enter the rabbit hole of sovereign citizens and their bewildering legal theories that can turn a routine interaction into a head-scratching conundrum. Then, as we peel back the layers of online hate, we encounter the world of anti-TikTok cops and the intense backlash they endure from within their ranks. We'll explore the intersection of law enforcement, family life, and the sometimes toxic environment of social media, all while keeping it real with a blend of humor and sincerity that navigates the complexity of these modern-day challenges.

This isn't your typical deputy dane, so listen at your own risk, sit back and enjoy. Good morning everybody. Welcome to the deputy dane morning show.
Speaker 2:I appreciate all y'all for being here.
Speaker 1:We got some stuff to get into, I really don't know what we're gonna get into, but we'll get into something. Sit back. Oh, oh, yep, there's the sirens. I think we're all gonna be detained. Sit back and enjoy the show.
Speaker 2:Good morning everybody. Welcome to the deputy dane morning show. If you're listening to this right now and it just came out or the day it came out, it is Christmas. Merry Christmas everybody. Hopefully everyone has a great Christmas.
Speaker 2:We are still battling this virus thing and then find out we also have strip. There's a whole lot going on in our household right now, so if I'm out of breath, bear with me. This thing has been rough. I've had it for weeks Just coughing stuff up, can't breathe, and then I start to doubt myself. You get a lot of people that are like oh, you're fat, you can't do anything, not really knowing that I do workout, I've done CrossFit, I still kind of do CrossFit. I do other things. I don't work out as much as I should or used to, but I also try to be here for my wife.
Speaker 2:So this whole week I'm like shit, maybe I am a slob, maybe I am a fat piece of crap that can't do anything. I can't even breathe, taking the trash out Legit. I took the trash out the other day and I was like, well, I'm just gonna take it and I'll just walk it down instead of taking it in the truck. Halfway there I regretted my decision. I had to take breaks Taking the trash to the trash can. Now, this is something I normally do on a daily basis, no problems. But yet this day I legit had to take three breaks. Walking to the trash can and then the whole way back I was hacking up along and spitting everything out, trying to get rid of all this crap. But, oh, I'm tired of it. This shit sucks. It's awful. I wish it on anybody.
Speaker 2:And then now they're saying they don't even know what it is. You have a respiratory virus that's ended up being bronchitis. It could be COVID. It might not be COVID. You're not testing positive for COVID. And then it could be streps. Some people are testing positive streps, some aren't. It's a whole bag of dicks. But if you guys remember I know this is we're gonna put our 10-fold hat on for a second. Every now and then I like to put my 10-fold hat on. It's fun. So it's 2019.
Speaker 2:Covid is not even hit yet, but we hear of some crazy disease that's all of a sudden popping up from some lab in China and us, being naive Americans, were like, oh, that's over there, nothing will happen here. But then we all start getting sick with something, but we don't know what it is. Here we are, we're coughing, we're spitting, we're spittler, we're struggling, we can't breathe. And then all of a sudden, a couple months later, we get our first case of COVID-19. The coronavirus. Everybody freaks out. We shut the whole country down. If you actually like, think about it. That's fucking wild. We think about how everything went down. I'm a first responder so I didn't get to go say oh, I've got time off. Um, I said to work my wife, she deals with death, so she really had to work.
Speaker 2:But if you remember, we all not all of us but there was a big sickness that went around before COVID hit. We heard about COVID or some disease coming from a lab over in China, but we never really knew exactly what it was and we never thought it would hit here because we thought it was like SARS and all that stuff that never hit here. You know, being naive Americans, I just watched people over there and you're like, oh, that guy's got a mask on. That's silly, silly mask. People. That would suck if we ever have to. Oh fuck.
Speaker 2:And here we go, we're wearing masks, but all of a sudden the country right now is going through the same shit. We're all sick. We all can't breathe, we all have something that no one knows what it is. We're not testing positive for COVID, some people are, and all this stuff is going on. Hmm, and we got some elections coming up. I wonder do you think that we are going to go through the same bullshit we already went through? Do you think that we are going to have another round of so-called COVID or something else? Now it's going to be zebra variant, whatever it is like, whether you believe in the shots, don't believe in shots. Believe in COVID, don't believe in COVID. Whatever it is, it's sure, lining up like we're about to do the same bullshit right before election time. So let's see, let's see what happens. I predict we're going to have something else happen.
Speaker 2:I know this is ten full hat time, but every now and then it's crazy that for the longest time we laughed at conspiracy theorist, For the longest time we sat there and went, huh, these fucking conspiracy theorist. No way, no way it would happen. Look where we're at Fucking crazy, crazy. Now we're in the same spot where we're like oh wait, some of these conspiracy theorists, some of their shit's out and up. Then you had all these people that we were like oh, aliens, those dudes are fucking weird. You got some dude living in a air stream out in the middle of the freaking desert playing as radio, talking about. You know, it's always that one guy. Now I look at it it sounds like it's kind of like me right now. You know, before podcasting was the thing, it was always some crazy fucking dude in the air stream talking about aliens and then he'd have like a radio.
Speaker 3:Well, bill, well, bill. Well, come on and call in Bill. Hey, how's this, bill? I did, too, see them, tom. I saw the aliens as well, Tom, that's crazy. We didn't see the Northern Lights, but it went up in the sky, tom, it took off. Well, bill, that's crazy. I knew it was happening and it was about time it was gonna come. Yeah, I saw it, bill.
Speaker 2:Tom, I don't even know. Now it's all podcasters, now we're that crazy guy and now I'm over here talking about conspiracies, what the is happening in this world. But look, it is so easy to be a conspiracy theorist now. So easy. You can sit here and actually just like break down some shit and you're like this is fucking wild, wild, crazy. And then, look, we're just going through the same bullshit again, just starting over, just starting over. So it's kind of funny.
Speaker 2:I don't go to the doctor. I hate going to the doctor. My wife tries to get me to the doctor more often. I don't like going, I don't. So the other day, again, I was supposed to be on vacation all week because I needed to use my time up. So I don't lose it. I like how I say again like people know who, you know I'm deputy doing, everybody knows me. That's kind of an arrogant thing to say.
Speaker 2:All right, so I had to use 80 hours before the January or December 21st and I had to use them. Well, I hadn't had a chance. I had some cases come up, more cases come up, some other cases come up, very terrible cases, all of them involving children, and it's very sad. So this last week I had some people let's just say I can't really go into too much detail I wrote warrants for terrible things, so they were supposed to go to court that day for something else. So I was like, cool, we'll just rest in my court, no problem, we'll get this, we'll interview them at court. Bam, wham bam. Thank you, ma'am, we're done.
Speaker 2:So I end up going okay, well, I go to town. I'm gonna go ahead and go to the clinic and see if I can't get steroids, antibiotics, whatever I need to get over this or at least help. So I go to the clinic and I went in early and I said you know what, I'll go in early, their court's not until this time. I'll go sit and get my clinic stuff done and then I'll go wait at the courthouse from the show up. Wham bam, thank you, ma'am. So of course, again, this virus is spreading, everyone's got it. This lobby of this little tiny clinic is just packed to people and we're all waiting to be seen. Then, like they had to outbreak a strap, and then all these people are down. So they only had one room going. It was just a whole thing.
Speaker 2:I love that clinic. They always take care of me, great people. It's like you're down to earth, little small town clinic. I love it. I always go to there. I don't live in the area, but I'm like, well, I'll go to work early, I'll go do this.
Speaker 2:So I'm sitting in the clinic Just minding my own business, just waiting, and sure as shit who comes walking in the door? The people I just got an arrest warrant for. I'm like, come on man, come on, can I just get a fucking break? Like, let me at least go to the clinic, get taken care of, and then we'll meet at the courthouse. We'll convene later. It would just convene later. Can I convene? See, I can even talk, convene later, and then we'll get this over with.
Speaker 2:Well, so there I am in the waiting room and I'm texting the other deputies. I'm like, hey, I'm here at the clinic waiting. I'm not giving up my spot, I'm here for a reason. So our suspects are here. And then there they come. And then, long story short, we got some felony arrest at the clinic.
Speaker 2:Well, we didn't really arrest them at the clinic, but still, long story short. We got them, we let them see the doctor. We're not heartless, okay, they still saw the doctor. We told them. We made us to the office afterwards. We had some questions, bam bam, bam.
Speaker 2:But I was like you've got to be shitting me. I can't even go to the clinic to get taken care of without bullshit walking in the door. And here comes bullshit walking in the door, man, man. But as part of law enforcement, you just try to do what you got to do. And I sit there, I text my wife. I'm like are you fucking shitting me? She's like what I go? I'm sitting here at the clinic. She's like, yes, like you should be. And then these people walk in. She's like are you kidding me? And it's like, nope. I'm like come on, man, give me a fucking break. But I mean, it kind of worked out. They're in jail, bad people. They go jail. Now it's waiting for court. But that's where we're at now.
Speaker 2:Again, it's been a hectic, hectic week. You know we had I do these lives, the lives on TikTok, and I've told us this before. The lives in TikTok are my way to deal with my own sanity. Making people laugh makes me so much happier internally on myself. I know that sounds selfish and I'm going to be selfish from time to time, I guess. But knowing I can make someone's day a little bit better. How awesome is that. But then you have just random people popping in, like a guy popped in today, some of y'all. If you listen to this you'll. You'll you over there talking about this evil and that evil, and open your eyes because Lucifer's here and all this stuff and like, hey man, that's cool. Dude, this is not what my life's about. If you want to talk about this stuff, you go talk about this stuff, but that's not what this is about. Dude, like we're having fun. You know, I'm not going to change anything. If Lucifer's there, me sitting there worrying about it, it's not going to fucking change anything.
Speaker 3:He's still going to be there Like it's not like I bet right now my evil plan will all go good unless Deputy Dane starts worrying about me.
Speaker 2:Be fucked up if that's true, though, but I've got other things to do. Okay, like my own sanity. I see enough evil in this world. I see enough terrible things that happen to children, terrible things that happen to people. People in just madded up and mangled the way that you can barely recognize them. I've been covered in all sorts of just Nastiness. I've dealt with all this. I see enough evil in the world. Okay, I don't want to sit here day in and day out researching the Illuminati, and the pyramid was upside down, and now there's some eye. That's all. See, I don't man to each her own dude, like don't, and then don't come in my live and get mad because I don't go down the fucking rabbit hole. If you guys don't go down some rabbit holes, you can go down some rabbit holes every now and then.
Speaker 2:I like to learn. I like to. I spend my time listening to audiobooks and podcasts. I used to hate him. Now I love him, and I'll listen to YouTube from time to time. When I'm driving, I'll put a video on and I'll listen. Well, one day I decided to get a little bit toasty and go down the rabbit hole.
Speaker 2:Sovereign citizens, if you want to go down a fucking rabbit hole. I'll just what the hell go down. That it's wild. They believe in some crazy stuff. They believe in like string man theory and they believe that we're all. We all belong to five Corporations and your social security number is actually your barcode for them. And you have stock and you, like my dudes, fucked Whoever bought me. I'm sorry, dude, like I became a cop. That sucks for you. Um, your stock sucks, but they go through some crazy stuff.
Speaker 2:And then these are the people. They have no t-shirts on telling you they know the law More than anybody, as they live in a shed in the middle of the woods with no running water and no electricity. Oh, man, you don't have to pay your mortgage, man, you don't have to pay. You don't have to pay for your car, man. I'm like well, that's cool. Where's your car? I lost it. Well, it's cuz you didn't pay. Yeah, man, but you don't have to. Yeah, but then you don't have to have a car.
Speaker 2:Same thing, it's hold this whole thing. It's like the whole thing. If you keep lying in line in line, eventually you believe it. There's a syndrome. Let's see what that is. Hold on a second. Well, I guess when you look it up. It just says pathological and compulsive liars.
Speaker 2:A lot of the stuff that these dudes spew on here is like crazy, crazy stuff. I'll break down what they spew. These sovereigns Hold on one second. Let me look this UCC up. Hold on one second.
Speaker 2:Okay, so if you watch a lot of these sovereigns when they get pulled over and they have to sign, sovereigns are very dangerous. If you don't know, they are a bunch of people that believe that they can do whatever they are and they were above the law. They don't have drivers license. It's always a dude that lost his driver's license for something. It's gonna be. A dude lost his driver's license DUI, never had it because he couldn't pass the driving test. It's something. It's not like some dude that's Well off and all of a sudden he just lets his license lapse and he's like fuck it, I'm sovereign. So they always say this stuff where they'll do the pull up, universal or uniform. Sorry, I can't talk. Give me, give me a little bit of leniency.
Speaker 2:Uniform commercial codes, ucc, and one they pull up all the time is UCC 1-308. That says that you can sign stuff without prejudice. Now what this actually says, what this is really meant for. If you break it down in the commercial code and all that. What this really is is okay, you can sign something saying that you sign and agree to it as long as it's right, if that makes sense. So what they say is they will sign and they won't sign their full name. Sometimes I'll sign, like their first name, their middle name. They'll never sign their full name. Whatever it is, they think they know everything. A lot of time they get ripped out of the car because they don't know what UCC that 1-308 really is used for. It is a uniform commercial code of.
Speaker 2:Let's say, you are a big corporation. Now, this big corporation, you sell kazoo's. Okay, you have just ordered a shipment, a whole ship of 47 billion kazoo's. Okay, so what this means is the ship dude, the captain or whoever I don't know exactly how it works Whoever has to get a signature saying it was delivered, okay. So here I am, deputy Danes kazoo Headquarters, and I bought these kazoo's. Okay, now my shipping dude is gonna deal with their shipping dude and they're gonna say, okay, yes, we did order that many kazoo's, but I can't, I can't count 42 billion kazoo's right now. So what we're gonna do is I'm gonna sign this and what it means is I'm gonna sign this under duress and without prejudice, meaning I'm gonna sign saying yes, I will take this shipment, but I still need to confirm that there's 42 billion kazoo's. And if there's not, I still have the right to say, hey, I Only have 41 billion kazoo's, you owe me a billion kazoo's.
Speaker 2:And then they go into the whole legal proceedings then. So what a lot of the sovereigns do is they try to use that and say, hey, no, you can't do this. And again, guys, I'm not, I'm not an expert on uniform commercial code, okay, but that's what they go off a lot is. They try to go off stuff like that. But like I'm not a commercial vehicle, I'm traveling, not driving stuff like that, just crazy outland, just just nonsense. And that's the kind of stuff they're gonna spew to you. And a lot of them these are gonna be your conspiracy theorists. They come up with a lot of crazy things.
Speaker 2:If you ever want to go down the rabbit hole, I'm just giving you heads up. It is a rabbit hole that like I Don't know, it's almost like the matrix. I Sat there going down and I'm like whoa man, it's pretty deep. And then I realized, okay, I've been going on this for a few hours and I've had one too many drinks. I need to take a break Because I'm about to take the blue pill or red pill, I don't know, whatever it is. I'm about to take that pill and we're gonna Just be careful. But if you break down on what it is is, they lie so much and they listen to people lie so much that they eventually believe it. I can sign this under duress or I can do this and I can do that.
Speaker 2:And a lot of the time officers are getting killed by these people because they're too focused on arguing over the commercial code that they're not paying attention to homeboy in the backseat with an AK-47. And you have to be cautious of these people. They're not safe, they're not right-minded, they're not good people. They think they can believe the law. And the problem we have is judges. I love my judge. I'm not talking about my judge. There's judges that, yes, it is a speeding ticket, yes, it is driving out of license, whatever. Whatever, it is okay.
Speaker 2:Sometimes they'll just throw it out. It's easier to throw it out than to deal with these people. And then what's that do? It just confirms in their head that they beat the system. Then they get on YouTube and they talk about hey man, I beat the system, I done, beat it, my 97-astrovan. I got it back and I beat them. The judge even said that's a stupid cop, which they didn't say that. They just said we'll just throw this out. And then it just becomes a whole stupid thing. There's cops, instead of dealing with them, they'll just go. Nah, never mind, it's not worth it.
Speaker 2:These people, they have backing too. They have backing to the point where, hold on one second. Okay, sorry about that. Babies came home. I heard crying so I had to go out there and help them.
Speaker 2:Okay, so we are talking about sovereign citizens and they do have backing, to the point where they have these attorneys and everything. Well, they can put liens on your property. So what they do is that anybody can put a lien on someone's property. They just got to put a lien on it and prove that they need to do it. And the thing is they do it without telling you. So you don't know. And actually you know you have a lien for sovereign citizen XYZ and then it's just a. It's a whole pain to ask.
Speaker 2:So some officers just say fuck it, I'm not dealing with them. So to deal with them is just like kind of your own thing. You just got to understand the law before you go at them, because some of them know a little bit about the law, but then they go through the straw man theory and they're part of a corporation. They're not driving, they're traveling and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So you just got to know how to deal with them. Most of the time it just deals with them being ripped out of the car and taken to jail because they won't sign their ticket or they'll sign it under duress or whatever. I don't. It's crazy. They'll even try to. Sometimes they try to sign with a blood fingerprint, so they'll actually get their fingerprint bloody and then whatever Crazy shit I don't know.
Speaker 2:Teacher on, I've noticed I'm cussing a lot in this one. So I'm sorry guys. I guess me under the weather just kind of just says F. The rest, I don't really care about my filters through the roof, I guess, or out the window, whatever it is. So yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 2:And that's what kills me is like we deal with so much outlandish nonsense in this world and, being in law enforcement, we deal with craziness. We see terrible things. We deal with terrible things. If I sound like I'm kind of whispering, I'm sorry. The babies are taking a nap, so I'm trying not to wake them up. So we deal with these outlandish things and then to get hate from your own kind is what's mind blowing. If you don't know law enforcement, it's just a giant high school game, is all it is. This person does something better than you in this, so they hate you for this and then you hate them for this. It's just. It's a high school drama all over, just with grown men that have type A personalities.
Speaker 2:And that's what kills me is there's a group on Instagram. This group is anti-tiktok cops, whatever. Who cares? You hate TikTok cops, but what makes this so? The irony of this damn thing is they spend their time. It's a bunch of cops. They spend their time hunting down cops on TikTok, trying to get them fired. They reach out to my agency, try to get me fired. Couldn't do that. Then they start calling me fat and I'm embarrassed, man, whatever it is. But, like now, if I post anything on Instagram, all these other cops that like the video will tag them in it, not realizing these people don't like me and it's just a. It's a whole war deal. It's just not worth it. It's just it's mind blowing.
Speaker 2:Instead of understanding, we all do our own job and we all do our own job in our own way. You'd rather hate on someone just because you don't like someone dancing on video. I don't dance on videos, but that's what they suggest every TikTok cop does is dance. But they're the ones that are living salty lives, probably the ones that actually do beat their spouses, and these are the guys that sit here and shouldn't be cops, because they live with so much anger and hatred that you spend the time to try to get people fired that do the same job as you, maybe even better than you. And that's what kills me Is they all want to say, oh, you're a terrible cop because you're on TikTok and you do this and you do that, not realizing the other stuff we do, not realizing the kids we help, the people we help. They would much rather spin the hate and try to make you look stupid and then call you fat because you don't do what they do.
Speaker 2:I have let myself go and I admit it. I admit it to everybody, but I have reasons for that. My wife works extremely hard. She works a full-time job as well, and I find it extremely selfish of me to go in work 12 hours to 16 hours Sometimes I'm lucky and get 12 and then say, hey, I'm going to be a little bit later so I can go to the gym. Now it does affect me. I love the gym, I love it, I love lifting weights, I love working out, but I've realized I love my wife and I respect my wife that I'd rather take a little bit of time instead of going to the gym, I go home and I help her with babies, because I'm telling you right now, when I'm stuck at home with the babies by myself, it is a lot and she does a lot, you know, and dealing with other stuff that she deals with, and then, on top of that, dealing with the babies all the time. I give that woman credit. So why not help her? Why not take the time and say you know what? Yes, I need to do the gym, yes, I need to do this, but I need to help her?
Speaker 2:A lot of agencies they'll allow you to work out while on duty. My agency is really not one of those, because if you're on duty, you're the only one on duty. Some of these guys that get like hour long breaks to go work out. We don't get that. Our lunch breaks are not really lunch breaks. We can get called out. I can't tell you how many times I've got called out as soon as I order my lunch and don't even get to eat it. And then I could go from call to call to call.
Speaker 2:But yet these guys want to sit here and go. Oh, you don't go to the gym like I do. Well, I don't have the time like you do, dude. And then a lot of them, they have spouses that are unhappy, and then the divorce rate climbs and climbs and climbs and climbs, because these guys are putting everything before their family. Now, do you need to be physically fit in this job? 100%, 100%. But at the same time you just got to find a balance. You know I still work out at home, not as much as I should, but it is what it is. It'll get better as the babies get older, but until that point I'm just going to keep doing what I do and help my wife where I can.
Speaker 2:And then you have these people that hate on you just because they don't see eye to eye on you, but they have no idea what you deal with. Some of these guys are on bigger agencies. They have no idea. The main guy is like a trooper and it's like dude, you do traffic control, you do this, you do that. Don't be wrong, I love my troopers and stuff, but you're hating on me not realizing the kind of stuff I have on my workload just because you see me on TikTok from time to time and it blows my mind just the sad, sad existence of these people. But it is what it is, man, you know you want to sit there and hate on people and live in that negative mindset. That's fine, because what I was doing is bringing you down. It's a sad, sad existence, sad existence.
Speaker 2:Could you imagine just wanting to spend all your energy to get somebody in trouble, like get somebody fired, I guess? I mean, I kind of do the same thing at rest people, but that's because they're doing things against the law and affecting other people. But could you imagine spending all your time and energy just because you don't like someone making a TikTok and you go, I'm going to get him, I'm going to hunt him down, and then there's 3,000, 4,000 of these cops that get together and they'll do everything they can and scour your page while on duty. You know they're doing it while on duty. They're sitting here talking shit on me, wasting company time, but yet they're sitting here doing the same thing I'm doing, except they're just trying to find me, and then they post videos on Instagram like that's different Instagram's. Okay, I guess I'm freaking, mind blowing. I think what it is. Just, they don't have a following. They can't make people laugh. They're unhappy in their own life, so they're going to do everything they can to bring someone down. That's trying to spread happiness and it just floors me. It's the sickness that people have. That being said, guys, with these babies down, I'd love to make this longer and longer. I had some other stuff I want to talk about, but I need to get this done. Get the presents on their Christmas tree so that way, when they wake up, naps, we are going to do our Christmas.
Speaker 2:I appreciate everybody so much, and thank you guys so much to the anti-TikTok people. Oh man, you guys are my biggest fan If you're on here. Thank you so much. I love you. You guys keep growing my page with your hate, so thank you Everybody else. Thank you so much. I know we say this time and time again, but I really couldn't do this without y'all. You guys make this possible and I couldn't thank you enough to the Patreon people. Thank you so much for the continued support from me and us growing the channel, still working on the studio, trying to get that done, but again, babies take precedent and then at the same time we're all sick. I think I've got a fever right now. I think I'm going to take a nap as well. So, everyone, thank you so much for the continued support. Please have an amazing, amazing Christmas. Spend time with your family if you can, and just man, love one another. Get rid of all this hate. It's freaking sad. Much love everybody. Stay safe.
