On today's show, we discuss the Johnny Depp case, why men don't want to get married, and why we need to decoupling the church and the state from the institution of marriage. Plus, a new Walther PDP Elite Handgun, and a call-in question about how to balance your desire for marriage and the legal system.
00:00:36.000you When it comes to safety, there's no substitute to a quality firearm.
00:00:41.000For over 135 years, Walther has been one of the world's leading premium manufacturers of concealed carry defense pistols and law enforcement firearms.
00:00:49.000Walther's timeless innovation has once more achieved a breakthrough never seen before in firearms with a new PDP Elite Handgun.
00:00:57.000With revolutionary ergonomics, super terrain slide serrations, and a brand new performance duty trigger, this is the next evolution in world-class ingenuity for pistols.
00:01:08.000Whether you are on the job or with the family, it is your duty to stay ready for any situation that may come.
00:02:18.000We have a lot to get to today, and by the way, there's going to be a more extended segment on this on Ash Wednesday, next Wednesday, with my half-Asian lawyer Bill Richman on the Johnny Depp legal battle that is going on right now.
00:02:30.000And I want to be clear as we talk about this today.
00:02:33.000This is an important moment because of the tie-ins.
00:02:35.000A lot of people are forgetting the Me Too movement, which spurred some of the dishonesty from Amber Heard.
00:02:41.000A lot of people out there don't really know what's been going on, and there's actually a lot of verifiable evidence that what the media tried to tell you was wrong.
00:02:49.000And this really ties into—look, I've talked about this as a Christian who really does value and support the institution of marriage.
00:02:57.000There's a reason, though, that a lot of young men don't want to get married now and there needs to be a decoupling of, you know, marriage and the church and kind of state laws.
00:03:30.000This is the thing, when Christians are really mad about same-sex marriage, and I understand
00:03:34.000it, I believe marriage is between a man and a woman, there are also little chinks in the
00:03:37.000armor that have been taking place that have been slowly eroding the institution by just
00:03:42.000making it such a no-win scenario and a high-risk scenario that you're going to...
00:03:47.000You're going to see a country where fewer people are going to get married, and a big part of it is what we're seeing here today in the Johnny Depp story, so we'll talk about that.
00:03:55.000Also, they're teaching pornography in high schools.
00:04:13.000So, before we move on, my question of the day, and this is an important one, and we're going, we're now having competitions for the best comment, will be pinned, and you'll win some signed merch, and also DNA scraping of Gerald, so you can leave it in any crime scene you wish.
00:04:26.000The question of the day, it's in your contract, shut up, how do you balance your, especially as a man, how do you balance your desire for marriage, finding a life partner, Versus the legal system that is, you know, stacked against you and women, because a lot of women now are seeing that men don't want to get married.
00:04:46.000We've talked about this in the show, but we'll get into the statistics today.
00:04:49.000What kind of changes do you want to see?
00:04:51.000Genuinely, what kind of changes do people want to see to the institution of marriage to bring it back to what it was originally intended to be as opposed to fighting over stuff?
00:05:00.000And false accusations and ugliness, because that's not what it is supposed to be, and I hate that that's what it is.
00:05:07.000I really want to hear from you, and that helps with the YouTube algorithm, and of course, they won't be happy to hear reasonable responses from you guys.
00:08:25.000So while we're talking about this, something horrifying.
00:08:29.000According to this pair of completely stable, well-adjusted young adults, these drag queens want you to know, and by the way, hopefully it's not like Libs of TikTok where people say that we're doxing people by posting their public video in which they encourage people to share it.
00:08:47.000They want you to know that everyone should be more like them.
00:08:51.000Oh baby, how many times do we have to answer this question?
00:09:38.000If a woman were to be ultra fit, you know, dressed like a Bratz doll, this is an unrealistic standard for women, but when you have two guys doing it, like, we are amazing!
00:09:49.000You're a walking stereotype of Barbie!
00:09:50.000Now, the Barbie doll, we have to make fat and disgusting for young girls, but when you do it, this is, you are all the splendor that is woman.
00:09:57.000Also, the shoes you're wearing are meant to make a woman taller.
00:13:53.000Talk of... is there any more perfect example of virtue signaling?
00:13:56.000I cannot be involved with this program for which I am paid an obscene amount of money to do very little work because there's a man with a different opinion here.
00:14:08.000Here's a script where you jump out of a trunk and show everyone your micropenis.
00:14:24.000But he also, you know, the reasoning was, oh, he has someone who's had to face anti-Asian discrimination because of Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani.
00:14:32.000Was he walking off when every black guy appeared?
00:14:48.000Yes, I love how people still blame Donald Trump for things that were happening already in record numbers before Donald Trump.
00:14:55.000Over 85% of all physical assaults in the bastion of conservatism that is the Bay Area, San Francisco, take place black people against Asian people.
00:15:04.000If it was de Blasio, I can see him getting angry.
00:15:19.000We should find some of the other masked singers who really had a bad background that he didn't walk off for and we're like, oh yeah, you're good with pedophilia or something.
00:15:28.000I don't know if that's a true story or not.
00:16:38.000He certainly wouldn't have been considered a hardline right Republican.
00:16:41.000But because he had the gall to be involved with questioning the election and, by the way, also broke a story that would have changed the outcome of the election, the Hunter Biden laptop, it showed up on this show for the first time.
00:16:54.000Because he had the nerve, he had the nerve to do that, they walk off.
00:16:58.000Oh, and correct me, was that story proven correct?
00:17:03.000I cannot fully substantiate- No, that's right, it was fully substantiated.
00:18:38.000If you're starting off with a bias, you're starting off with something, you're trying to prove one hypothesis and ignoring the other tests that are going on.
00:18:46.000Well, look, you're going to end up with something that may not be accurate.
00:18:48.000It may not show the full scope of the study, of the meta-analysis.
00:18:54.000If you're just seeking justice for a marginalized class, you're going to ignore some key truths.
00:18:59.000And even today, The media, two days ago, but even today if you search you can still find this, they tried to paint this as a white male privilege issue.
00:19:12.000And it says, the latest act in the very public unraveling of Johnny Depp began last week in a courtroom in Northern Virginia, pulling back the curtain on the secretive world of celebrity enablers and hangers-on, and goes on to talk about the white, you know, being a white male and the privilege, and there are still places right now that say that he's a wife-beater, Johnny Depp.
00:19:32.000Oh yeah, they're still trying to push that narrative, which is amazing.
00:19:35.000Because it's the believe all women thing.
00:19:37.000There's nothing wrong with listening to an accusation and looking into it.
00:19:43.000But seriously, it is innocent until proven guilty for a reason.
00:19:47.000Well you just described what our court system used to be.
00:20:28.000So, let me just lay the stage for you.
00:20:31.000There is no actual evidence that Johnny Depp committed physical abuse.
00:20:37.000I can't say that he didn't, but there's no evidence that's been brought forward that Johnny Depp committed physical abuse against Amber Heard.
00:20:43.000There is plenty of evidence that Amber Heard committed not only physical abuse, but serious emotional and psychological abuse against Johnny Depp.
00:20:53.000A lot of people try and say there was a lawsuit in 2020.
00:20:55.000That was a lawsuit between Johnny Depp and a news publication, not Amber Heard, and that's a very difficult bar to clear.
00:21:01.000We're going to do a legal analysis with half-Asian lawyer Bill Richman next week, so I don't want to get into that today as far as defamation to prove.
00:21:08.000But today what we want to talk about is the truth and how this reflects in the current state of marriage and, honestly, men's rights.
00:21:57.000Now, what we have, the first clip is, we're going to go through some evidence here and video evidence, but the first clip is, you know, so far, Johnny Depp's testimony has been pretty shocking.
00:22:07.000And this one is about something specific that you may not have known.
00:27:31.000And her lawyers are claiming that she never mentioned DEP in the article.
00:27:34.000It's very clear that that's what is implied.
00:27:36.000And in subsequent comments and interviews, she also inferred it again.
00:27:40.000This is what the current $50 million defamation lawsuit is about.
00:27:46.000Okay, it's about that because then Johnny Depp was dropped from some very significant roles, namely Captain Jack Sparrow.
00:27:51.000Yeah, by the way, she said two years ago I became the figurehead for this abuse, and I'm like, oh, were you married to someone else who beat you two years ago?
00:27:58.000Two years ago I became a public figure representing domestic abuse, and I felt the full force of our culture's wrath for women who speak out.
00:28:05.000Here you go, look, this is why, and this is the thing.
00:28:27.000And so, because you're one of the most public figures who gets caught lying, it makes people less likely to believe people who are actual victims.
00:28:39.000It's not consequence free, just beyond you're a crappy person because you lie and you poop.
00:28:43.000It's the consequences hurt other women who are actual victims of domestic violence, not to mention the men who are victims of domestic violence, which occurs far more commonly.
00:28:52.000Well, and I know this might be controversial, but I don't believe that you have the right to go out and say, obviously there are laws against this, right?
00:28:57.000And that's why he's suing her, but the damage is already done.
00:29:18.000The you raped me or the you abused me comment is the thing that is going to be put in every single newspaper and I'm never going to be able to get ahead of that.
00:29:34.000Even if he is innocent, which I believe that he is, for the rest of time he's now a wife beater and a rapist to a certain group of people in the country.
00:29:43.000Because once you're that, you're always that.
00:29:45.000Well, as a journalist, aren't you supposed to have to substantiate your stories before you publish them?
00:29:50.000And it seems like in this case, this is the one time where it's like, no.
00:29:55.000You can just have somebody come out and say... The one time?
00:30:24.000There's a decoupling of actual evidence and either a trial or our legal system, innocent until proven guilty, versus a second system of justice, which is the court of public opinion.
00:30:36.000And that's when people say, cancel cultures.
00:30:38.000Well, you can say whatever you want, but there are consequences.
00:30:49.000So let's get to some of the evidence here that you may not have known.
00:30:52.000And actually, it would help if you comment below, which parts of these that we're about to present did you know versus hearing it here for the first time?
00:31:00.000Because a lot of people who I had spoken with hadn't heard this before, and now this is the result of Johnny Depp's testimony, but this information had been out there.
00:31:07.000So, leaked audio shows, first off, let's kind of hit you with fact one that I think is important, that she was mocking Johnny Depp, saying that no one would believe him if he came forward as a victim of domestic abuse.
00:31:36.000It sees how many people believe or side with you.
00:31:39.000Yeah, and special thanks to, I think, Incredibly Average YouTube, or YT is a channel that posted that and kind of broke it.
00:31:45.000So here's the thing, that sounds, well, you know what, it's just, he said, she said, only, and this is another fact here, I guess number two, I'll label them for you, fact number two, it's not he said, she said, it's she said, she said, in the audio, that she hit Johnny Depp!
00:33:04.000This is the problem with, look, look, this is not meant for all women, so please don't get upset.
00:33:10.000I'm speaking in generalizations here about women like Amber Heard.
00:33:14.000And there are more of them out there than many people like to admit, and there are also more men out there like, I don't know, take your pick, Michael Vicks, than many people care to admit.
00:33:23.000But this is something that happens a lot, and this is a form of mental abuse, of emotional abuse, that occurs toward men quite a bit, beyond the fact that physical abuse occurs against men in domestic relationships more often than the other way around.
00:34:03.000She calls him a pussy because you're complaining about being hit.
00:34:06.000If a man hit a woman, if a man shoved a woman, and then said, don't be a baby, and that's on a recording, that man would be seen as a monster.
00:34:56.000She deserves to feel the brunt of Johnny Depp defending himself, which he didn't do, like any man would.
00:35:02.000And because he doesn't, what's your choice?
00:35:04.000Defend yourself, in which case you lose your domestic abuser, or a woman who keeps coming and coming and coming, not only emotionally, psychologically, but physically, and then you're a weakling.
00:35:13.000It is a no-win situation, and that is why it is an effective form of mental abuse that women administer toward men.
00:36:05.000So there's also been evidence and testimony here presented at the trial that beyond being punched, a very serious finger cut injury that required surgery that Depp suffered.
00:36:38.000Takes the second bottle, which was the larger one.
00:36:41.000I'm in this position again, and my hand is on the edge of the bar, like that, leaning over, fingers like that, and she threw the large bottle, and it made contact and shattered.
00:37:05.000everywhere and uh... by the way just please don't let this be a reason
00:37:11.000for uh... liquor companies to cheap out and separate and plastic bottles i
00:37:14.000hate that keep using glad you don't let amber spoil it for the rest of us now
00:37:18.000pop of wouldn't on the track but still no uh... in case you think he's overplaying it here and he's
00:37:23.000all a baby uh... i warn you for people who are squeamish here's a
00:37:26.000picture of the Oh, we even blurred it.
00:37:29.000It was a little too rough because, you know, it's, I mean, it was down to the bone and he got, he got MRSA, he got staph infection, which you guys know I had on my foot.
00:37:36.000And it can, I mean, that, that can, you can lose a foot, you can lose an arm.
00:39:06.000But if Will Smith had just been acting out in this Jada stuff, like her videos hadn't been released and all this stuff that we now know about her, we'd be like, huh, Will, what's going on, man?
00:42:23.000Now, uh, so here's another fact for you.
00:42:25.000Um, uh, this is what, where we are now due to the, uh, I guess maligning due to the allegations from Amber Heard, which keep in mind the allegations that she made these in Washington Post after they settled out of court.
00:42:41.000So they were completely unsubstantiated.
00:43:08.000Yeah, for his kid's sake, he needs to clear his name and he needs to open up his private life to everyone.
00:43:14.000Hey, everyone out there, if you've been in a relationship, would you want to have to reveal that to everybody?
00:43:20.000People say ugly things, people do ugly things, but He has to do this.
00:43:24.000He has to make sure that every single bad thing he's done in his life gets put under a microscope because she wrote an op-ed, even though she decided to have her cake and eat it too, and write an article in the Washington Post after she settled.
00:43:38.000She settled because she knew she couldn't prove it.
00:44:03.000Oh, well, I believe it was, I don't think it took Disney very long, maybe a couple of days to announce that That I had been removed from the Pirates of the Caribbean films franchise.
00:44:31.000Well, if only Johnny Depp had been banging kids instead of getting abused by women, they probably would have given him a new franchise.
00:46:38.000Just like Amber Heard was not fearing any retribution for punching him in the face, for throwing a glass bottle at him, because she, you know, is under this unwritten agreement that men will not fight back, she also fears no retribution of the legal system.
00:46:53.000Because we have a court system, as it relates to marriage, that very much unfairly favors women at this point.
00:46:58.000There was a reason for it one point in time.
00:47:01.000And I say this, it's very difficult For me as a Christian who values the institution of marriage, sometimes to also make that sell to young men, because there's a difference between what we believe to be marriage, a holy union, a matrimony, and how the state has screwed it up.
00:47:16.000So first, people may not know this, women are actually more often domestic abusers than men.
00:48:15.000Oh, I had a girl, yeah, she was trying to hook up with me in the back of my friend's car, and she kept biting me, and I was trying to get her to stop, but I couldn't put my hand... It was creepy!
00:48:38.000I wasn't even looking at her, and... Megan, I miss you, by the way.
00:48:41.000Well, come on now, have some self-respect.
00:48:43.000So this is exactly something that a lot of people, when we were doing the run-through for this show, we realized that this has happened to almost every male that I have known has been... Has been... yeah.
00:48:57.000Hashtag me too, I was violated in the face.
00:51:24.000According to the National Coalition of Domestic Violence, 43.8% of lesbian women and 61.1% of bisexual women have experienced rape, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner.
00:51:36.000And these numbers are off the charts in comparison to gay couples.
00:51:39.000So in other words, if you have a hierarchy, you have gay couples, the least amount of domestic abuse.
00:51:45.000Heterosexual couples, right in the middle there.
00:52:33.000But women out there, because I think there's a statistic recently, if someone can get it from the control room, I'm going by rote, something like 40% of men, I don't know if it was in the United States or a global study, a startling amount of young men have no interest in getting married at all anymore.
00:52:47.000And that's not a good thing for women.
00:52:54.000When neither party is held accountable in a truthful way, Boy, boy do you end up with some problems and that's what this is about with Johnny Depp.
00:53:03.000It's about the systemic abuse of a man in an abusive relationship and it played out in the public sphere where no journalists did their due diligence because they wanted to go out with a narrative regardless of who it harms.
00:53:18.000It's not any different than Black Lives Matter.
00:53:33.000Who cares that thousands of lives have been ruined?
00:53:36.000And who cares that men haven't been believed when they come forward with allegations of being actually assaulted and they could substantiate it?
00:53:47.000This is the kind of stuff that some guys have to deal with.
00:53:50.000Yeah, or that real women like Rose McGowan have been looked at like they're crazy, when it's like, no, that's obviously somebody who's had to deal with an actual sexual assault.
00:53:59.000And it all depends on your political persuasion, the color of your skin, and if you have a penis, unless you're trans.
00:54:04.000That's not the way the justice system should work.
00:54:06.000And we were talking about this, there does need to be, you know, I believe marriage is important, but I also think that you have a no-fault divorce.
00:54:42.000So a prenuptial agreement would make sense if you're getting married, if you both work.
00:54:46.000And if not, OK, well, then we now have an agreement where it's the only agreement right now that I know of in the United States, a marital agreement, particularly if you have a man who works and a woman who doesn't, or a man who earns more, or vice versa, where one party is financially incentivized to break it.
00:55:04.000And the only reason that you assume they don't is because they're doing it for love.
00:55:08.000Well, the numbers in America right now show that that's too easy to fake.
00:55:11.000Too many people are getting married for the wrong reasons, but you and I, when we were talking about it, so the church having marriage, obviously we believed in that for a long time, and I still believe in that.
00:56:19.000If guys, if every single marriage came with a prenuptial agreement, kind of as the standard, you would actually have to sign a document saying, I don't want that.
00:56:28.000That'd probably be a better situation for people because then at least you understand the rules of the game.
00:56:33.000You have states right now where a woman could cheat on a man, can marry a woman who's never worked, can marry a man, cheat on a man, leave, and take half.
00:56:43.000There's a gold digger there for a reason, but guys can do the same thing, we're just less likely to do it.
00:56:47.000We can't shake our tush and get a woman to fall in love with us.
00:56:52.000Some tushes are better than others, I get it.
00:58:41.000I hope it's financially very difficult because you can't be allowed to go out and do this kind of thing because you'll incentivize the next person.
00:58:47.000If there are no consequences to this, you're basically playing the lottery.
00:58:51.000And also, men, you need to come forward.
00:58:53.000You need to come forward if you're being physically abused.
00:59:04.000But it's a symptom of the actual abuse that you're experiencing.
00:59:08.000And there needs to be more accountability on both sides.
00:59:11.000And the accountability needs to The North Star of all of this needs to be truth, and we are so far off the beam right now that we're seeing the destruction of the institution of marriage, and it's not because of two guys in chokers in San Francisco, even though it doesn't help.
00:59:34.000Because any time there's a woman who can even, like, act like she's in distress, think of a bar in your 20s where you don't know the situation, and a girl's screaming at a guy, it's like, can I help you?
00:59:44.000Like, guys involve themselves inside with the woman so easily that they've been trained over years to believe like, well, I'm hot and I can get away with anything and I can get any guy to stand up for me at any time.
00:59:55.000And it's our own stupidity that has caused it.
01:01:18.000And it's such a silly thing, like think of how many times Humphrey Bogart, those guys back in the day, like the woman, he's like, no, stop, and they just grab the wrist like, no, stop it, honey!
01:01:26.000I mean, now restraining, because when she was saying he head-butted her, he was restraining her while she was assaulting him.
01:01:32.000Now they want to accuse men restraining of violent women of the assault that they're committing.
01:03:25.000According to that class description online, it says that they will watch porn together to talk about the sexualization from race to also gender and class, which has drawn in some curiosity and some criticism.
01:03:41.000Students pursue higher education to learn.
01:03:44.000I really don't think that it's that big of a deal.
01:03:46.000But this class at Westminster with a giraffe's name, Porn, has drawn in the question of whether this is appropriate in higher education.
01:03:54.000I feel like a lot of my friends are super sex positive and we talk about this stuff all the time.
01:04:00.000First, zero people are surprised that that guy answered that way.
