Comedian Bill Burr returns to the stand-up comedy stage with a brand new show called Rebels With a Cause. He's joined by his brother, comedian Joe Louis, and comedian Trevor Noah. They discuss the new comedy show, the new puppy, and more.
00:01:51.000Listen, I was thinking, if you don't want me mixing around on YouTube no more, you know, you don't want no more of the Muhammad cartoons or the Tranny jokes, I was thinking, maybe I'm not gonna do the show.
00:05:49.000By the way, really quickly, before anything else, the tickets are selling fast.
00:05:52.000We're expanding Houston and Phoenix, just so you know, the Smart Financial Center in Houston, and I guess it's the financial arena in Phoenix.
00:06:35.000And we just took out one of the Taliban's top officials, which is a big thing today.
00:06:38.000We're going to give you also, by the way, because we're not without a heart here, we want to help you, tell you how to avoid the monkeypox.
00:07:48.000Just to be clear, credit where it's due, I am happy that this piece of crap is dead.
00:07:54.000Here, let's roll the clip of former Vice President Joe Biden letting us know.
00:08:00.000We make it clear again tonight that no matter how long it takes, no matter where you hide, If you are a threat to our people, the United States will find you and take you out.
00:08:13.000After relentlessly seeking Zawahiri for years under Presidents Bush, Obama, and Trump, our intelligence community located Zawahiri earlier this year.
00:08:23.000It moved to downtown Kabul to reunite with members of his immediate family.
00:08:29.000After carefully considering the clear and convincing evidence of his location, I authorized a precision strike that would remove him from the battlefield once and for all.
00:08:39.000Yes, he authorized it, like Ben Affleck authorized the script of Good Will Hunting.
00:09:14.000This is something that you would think everyone in this country could be on board with.
00:09:19.000However, CNN, just in tripping over their Johnson to make sure that they could just somehow turn this into a loss, decided to pivot and let us know that this was not the most important narrative at hand regarding the killing of a Notre terrorist.
00:09:35.000We don't talk enough about how domestic extremists are also harming our country equally as big of a threat as well.
00:09:42.000And I think it's important to note, you know, the stories that we now cover of the parents from gun violence, our black churches and our synagogues.
00:09:50.000I think that also warrants equal attention when we're talking about threats against America.
00:09:54.000It is a really interesting changing landscape that I think is worth a discussion.
00:09:59.000It's not interesting and it's not a changing landscape.
00:10:04.000Al-Qaeda's been a real problem for some time.
00:11:42.000I'm talking about American citizens, where you want to say that the domestic extremism—and then, by the way, I should note, after this on CNN, they spent an entire segment on the insurrection.
00:12:30.000And then CNN says, but we need to be... we need to be mindful that just as great of a threat, if not greater, And by that, it's the opposite of the truth.
00:12:40.000Not at all, even remotely, the same level of threat.
00:12:43.000But according to CN, just as great of a threat, if not greater, is black churches and synagogues because of domestic extremists.
00:12:54.000You know they're not going to be checked by Snopes!
00:12:56.000You know they're not going to be checked by WAPO!
00:12:59.000By Reuters, and then they want to blame you for the disconnect.
00:13:02.000So just understand, and don't play into the narrative, when they say civility, and by they I mean the progressive left, the leftists in the United States, what they mean is shut up and take it.
00:13:11.000They only care about civility when it's their people in power.
00:13:15.000Was there civility when George Bush was in power?
00:13:18.000Was there civility when Donald Trump was in power?
00:17:50.000California's a terrible place, and because of the largely anti-police movement, the allowing homeless people to go... This is one thing, when I was in Spokane, and I seen all these homeless people there, smoking crack right outside of the Rite Aid in broad daylight, listen, Los Angeles, Spokane, Seattle, Portland, Austin?
00:20:03.000The point is, I want to see more like that last clip and less like the former.
00:20:08.000But unfortunately, in places like the UK and places like Canada, and how they would like to see it in California, again, if Democrats had power completely unfettered, you would be arrested for protecting your own property and your own person.
00:21:58.000That being said, of course I want Pelosi to arrive and hopefully get back to the United States safely, because if it comes down to picking commie pieces of trash, I'll pick the one with the American flag.
00:22:09.000So I side with Pelosi over Xi Jinping.
00:22:13.000She's scheduled to meet with the Taiwanese president Tsai Ing-wen on Wednesday.
00:22:26.000I want to give you a timeline so that you can feel like you're armed to understand what's going on here and then hopefully provide some Some additional insight and some exclusive information with some people who are on the ground in Taiwan, but all references are available at lottowithcrowder.com, okay?
00:24:38.000So, August 1st, again giving you the timeline, a speculation mounted that Pelosi would visit The Chinese officials then threatened there's been an escalation taking place.
00:25:40.000So I understand that some manufacturing has to take place, and by the way, manufacturing made in the USA doesn't necessarily mean that it's better, but the idea that we are now beholden to China, and a big part of this is because of the alliances that have been created, and what do you do?
00:25:51.000Do you talk down, do you stare down China and have a leg to stand on when you declared the WHO, and so did YouTube and Facebook and Twitter, to be an authoritative source?
00:26:00.000On the pandemic who who hid China's complicity with The beginning of the pandemic?
00:26:12.000Oh, what are you going to count to three?
00:26:14.000Yeah, this was Donald Trump's whole point.
00:26:15.000He said, we've been handling the China situation wrong for decades now, and now we're getting to a place where China is going to become more powerful, more interconnected, and it makes it more impossible to go to a place like Taiwan without having to worry about being shot down.
00:26:29.000Representative Cheng Xun also stated that About Pelosi.
00:26:34.000This visit is provocative, and if Pelosi insists on making it, then China will take firm and strong measures to safeguard our national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
00:26:44.000We allow no one to cross this red line.
00:27:28.000How many are really, though, into the fight?
00:27:31.000They always talk about how it's sort of a war of numbers, and it's like, yeah, but most of them are attached to sewing machines and have binded feet.
00:27:38.000Who's really going to be like, yeah, I really want to stand up for this?
00:29:54.000Then China, when you look at what they're doing, when you look at their, you look at the Chinese, you'll use the term, whatever term, Prime Minister, President, Emperor, whatever term they want to use that day, the person who locks you away if you utter the wrong syllables, yeah, that guy.
00:30:06.000No, no, as a matter of fact, let's assume that they're both totalitarian assholes.
00:33:04.000There is no difference in their mind right now.
00:33:06.000And it's like, oh, we don't want to poke the bear and just let's maintain the status quo and make the problem harder to solve later for somebody else to deal with.
00:33:37.000Well, if you also look at the rest of the islands as it goes up, you know, up toward Japan, it really is, it's a very quick march for China if they take over Taiwan.
00:33:45.000We talked about that at length with Ginger Snapp who lived in Asia for a very long time.
00:34:45.000You speak out of both sides of your mouth and you make no sense.
00:34:48.000And this is exactly what should be expected from an administration who, by the way, they have their dick in a ringer because they have been worshipping the WHO.
00:34:57.000Remember, that is, for a while, it was the only!
00:35:01.000And the reason was because the Imperial College of London study that said 2 point whatever million people in the United States would be killed in the first four months, they had to, right, they had to disregard that.
00:35:09.000And so the only authoritative source they had left on YouTube, on Facebook, on Twitter, you can check all the references at ladderofcredit.com, go in your time machine, go back to the videos back then.
00:35:17.000Some of them, some of the episodes were removed.
00:35:20.000The only one left was like, oh, all we have left is the WHO.
00:35:23.000That was the only authoritative source.
00:36:40.000Do you remember the time when these doctors that were trying to submit papers to the WHO to actually help and say, hey, we have some information that you guys may want to take a look at?
00:36:47.000And they were like, we can't because Rhode Island doesn't exist.
00:36:50.000Those are enemies of democracy, enemies, enemies of accurate information online, just like all of us are more so enemies of the state than heads of Al-Qaeda.
00:37:00.000In case you didn't understand the rule.
00:37:01.000We need to keep an eye on domestic extremism and misinformation.
00:38:30.000So, and this morning's China's envoy to Pakistan, Li Bijian, tweeted that both of China's combat-ready carriers, by the way, for comparison, I think they have the second most, the United States has the most, with 11.
00:38:48.000Eleven active, one of them's being used for Top Gun 3.
00:40:00.000Think about how terrifying that is for a second.
00:40:03.000It's kind of like saying, we want to continue the status quo with Iran in their quest to destroy the state of Israel and say that they don't have a right to exist.
00:40:11.000Like, yeah, well that's a good status quo to keep going, I guess.
00:40:14.000And here's something else, too, I wanted to get to.
00:40:19.000The Taiwanese actually seem to be welcoming this visit, so when asked about it, and this is someone who Gingersnap here, Lane, I guess made a connection with, a Taiwanese reservist, his name is Bruce Liu, said the rewards of the visit outweighed the risk.
00:40:33.000And we tried to get him on video, but this is a direct quote.
00:40:35.000We'll probably get an interview with him soon.
00:40:37.000He said, even though we have not faced any war in my generation, And we don't have enough training as a compulsory military personnel, I still believe most of us will stand to defend our country, freedom, and the way we live.
00:40:54.000There's a huge difference between people who are forced to fight for a government, who they know will still hold them under their thumb after the war is over, and people who are fighting a war to maintain their freedom.
00:41:48.000Bread in their neck, you've seen this, if you've ever grabbed Joe Louis by the neck, and then he can just sort of do a 360, you're like, how did that happen?
00:41:54.000That's so that if an animal, specifically a mountain lion or a boar, grabs his neck, he can rotate around and pin that animal.
00:42:00.000So this is an animal that is bred for a specific purpose, and that's why sometimes you'll be surprised.
00:42:04.000You're like, how can a dog take on a wolf, like an Irish wolfhound?
00:42:07.000How can, I think dogs are fascinating because they really are perfect examples of how we've bred certain species into existence for a very, very limited purpose.
00:42:14.000There's something called the life budget.
00:42:15.000You gain it somewhere, you lose it somewhere else.
00:42:17.000Doesn't mean that Taiwan could handle a war, for example, with Russia, or that they could handle a war with any military, but they know how to defend that strip of land along their coast from China as effectively as anyone on Earth, because that is what they have had to prepare for.
00:42:35.000They don't need as much help from the United States as, let's say, Ukraine.
00:46:01.000So with that and being a gay man in New York City, I feel like I was, monkey pox was on my mind a little bit more than your average person, perhaps.
00:47:18.000So he starts off with, I worked on the infectious diseases and I'm a doctor and, uh, no, it's because you just went to an Enya concert and spit-roasted a Kenyan pirate.
00:47:30.000It's almost like saying, I'm a professional baseball player, but I'm mostly concerned because I've had unprotected homosexual sex with so very many people.
00:49:15.000He declared monkeypox a global health emergency.
00:49:19.000So in short, we have an outbreak that has spread around the world rapidly through new modes of transmission about which we understand too little and which meets the criteria in the international health regulations.
00:49:36.000For all of these reasons, I have decided that the global monkeypox outbreak represents a public health emergency of international concern.
00:50:16.000Because what happened is one of these African men came back from the Techno Music Festival and didn't want to tell his hot wife, Were you back at a Moby concert?
00:51:25.000Probably in what looks like Fruity Pebbles.
00:51:29.000Now, let's go to now, on July 28th, close enough, the WHO issued guidance to homosexual men to quit being... and here's the thing, it's not that you're gay, just to be clear, it's not that everyone who's gay is at risk.
00:51:45.000If you are a monogamous gay couple, you are also not at risk.
00:51:50.000It is the sexual patterns that we all know and statistically are undeniable have taken place within the gay community.
00:52:03.000And the reason that it's not that can only spread in the gay community, it's that it has been largely contained to the gay community because This is an outbreak that can be stopped if countries, communities, and individuals inform themselves, take the risks seriously, and take the steps needed to stop transmission and protect vulnerable groups.
00:52:40.000The best way to do that is to reduce the risk of exposure.
00:52:45.000That means making safe choices for yourself and others.
00:52:51.000For men who have sex with men, this includes, for the moment, reducing your number of sexual partners, considering sex with new partners, and exchanging contact details with any new partners to enable follow-up if needed.
00:53:09.000Okay, so that means no more anonymous orgies like the Darklings Festival that started the entire outbreak.
00:58:51.000We have the references available at lightofskyter.com.
00:58:53.000However, sometimes what we do is just meant to be entertaining, and that's where when we do our tour, you know, in the fall, you can say whatever you want on stage.
00:59:00.000I started this two weeks ago, and I was in Spokane, a bit about monkey pox, and it was way more offensive then than it is now.
00:59:09.000I was almost like, he was almost like comedy Nostradamus.
00:59:21.000Some of the things that I say up here, they're not true.
01:01:16.000I'm still conflicted on it, but of course you can go and see Dave and I Live, the big fall tours, these big venues that I've never done before.
01:01:23.000Looking forward to, but also, we've never, I don't think, well you have done when you opened for Dave Chappelle, but like 6,000 seats at Phoenix.
01:01:30.000Yeah, I've never done them as the main act there with you.
01:01:34.000On the 16th, and then Houston the 17th, and then you are in Dayton, Ohio this Friday through Saturday at the Funnybone.
