In the wake of the boycott against Budweiser, the company is scrambling to figure out how to deal with the fallout. Plus, a Florida gay pride parade is shut down after a bill passed that would ban children attending lewd adult performances.
00:00:32.000In places where it matters, when they actively choose their orders, meaning smaller businesses and regional stores, I bet they're seeing a much bigger impact from the boycott as opposed to, like, a big venue chain or an arena just put in an order for, like, you know, 5,000 cases or whatever without thinking about it.
00:00:49.000Sales dropping, in my opinion, implies individuals at the smaller business-level bars and stores are choosing to avoid it.
00:00:59.000Now that it's having a huge impact on the regional stores, This emergency meeting means a whole lot.
00:01:04.000Ladies and gentlemen, we can win this culture war, so we'll talk about that.
00:01:06.000Plus, we got some other crazy stories.
00:01:08.000In Tennessee, where, thanks to the work of Matt Walsh and The Daily Wire, they actually got child sex change surgeries banned.
00:01:16.000The DOJ is now intervening and seeking to make sure, as they say under the 14th Amendment, it cannot be banned.
00:01:23.000And interestingly, in Florida, After they passed a bill that would ban children attending lewd adult performances, a local pride parade in Florida was shut down.
00:01:34.000And now you've got a bunch of Democrats being like, oh no, oh look, they were forced to shut down their pride event.
00:01:39.000And it's kind of like the context around that is they chose to shut it down because they're no longer allowed to show adult lewd behavior to children.
00:02:35.000So we don't have to worry about sponsors or undue pressure from outside forces.
00:02:40.000So these weirdo activists who want to go to these companies and say, why are you sponsoring the show?
00:02:44.000Okay, please send an email to Cast Brew letting them know you're mad that they're helping fund our show.

00:04:37.000All right, let's jump into this first story from the Daily Mail.
00:04:40.000Ladies and gentlemen, Anheuser-Busch executives hold closed-door meeting with beer distributors and told them any marketing will be heavily screened before it goes public.
00:04:50.000Bosses held the closed-door meeting in D.C.
00:04:52.000this week where they laid out plans going forward.
00:04:55.000They say that Benj... Benj Steinman, editor of Beer Marketers Insight, said the spending on the brand fell off a cliff last year, but Anheuser-Busch execs are promising to rectify the situation.
00:05:06.000Bud Light sales have fallen dramatically since the Dillon Mulvaney boycott, which I think most of you know.
00:05:56.000But we expect conservatives to do that.
00:05:58.000When we get news that they're having an emergency meeting in D.C.
00:06:01.000and in a major liberal area, Connecticut, New Jersey, Long Island, that beer sales are dropping 50% at a major regional supermarket, boycott's working.
00:06:22.000The one that was near me, uh, had all of the, like, fruits that sing and stuff like that.
00:06:25.000Like, if you can't keep people in your store, if you can't get them to buy Bud Light under those circumstances, like, you're just not going to.
00:06:53.000They say, On top of the marketing blitz, executives working for Bud Light will go through a more rigorous screening process, according to one Northeast-based beer distributor.
00:07:04.000Quote, there will be an improved screening process before any marketing hits the public.
00:07:08.000Executives will have to go through a more rigorous screening process.
00:07:11.000According to Beer Business Daily, wholesalers received a letter in which executives explained the entire situation, including, quote, this was one single can given to one social media influencer.
00:07:21.000This can was not made for production or sale to the general public.
00:07:48.000I think that's the biggest thing. You know, they're trying so hard to act like nothing's happening, but there was that
00:07:53.000that video I don't know if we should we talked about it last night,
00:07:56.000but this guy in Las Vegas. He's a Las Vegas vlogger It's just what he does
00:08:00.000He's walking into stores and being like I wonder if this is a thing and then he's like, oh wow
00:08:04.000No one's buying Bud Light Yeah, I was I was questioning whether or not this would
00:08:08.000have impact and when it initially started I I was a little apprehensive about the idea.
00:08:14.000I thought that it would look like people were attacking Dylan, and it has turned into what looks like the most effective boycott the right has seen in a long, long time.
00:08:26.000I can't remember the last time that there's been a boycott of something from the right that has been this effective.
00:08:33.000Well, and it's obvious that people are upset with the brand.
00:08:36.000And they're really focusing on the brand, and not the person.
00:08:39.000Which is good, because then it doesn't seem like you're bullying, right?
00:08:42.000And it was kind of, they were talking about Dylan the first two days, which is reasonable, because, you know, bringing him in and all that.
00:08:49.000But it turned into the brand, which I think is, that's the correct approach, because they're the ones that made the decision, they're the ones that make the product, they're the people that people want to buy the product from.
00:08:58.000Is it every, now the actual cans or bottles in the stores, It was like a limited run that actually had Dylan's face on them, correct?
00:09:06.000No, they only, from what I remember, and Phil can correct me here, they only made this one can to celebrate 365 days of Girlhood to mark the one year point of Dylan's whole deal.
00:09:23.000Because the video I saw first was Dylan with a bunch of beers saying,
00:09:26.000I don't even know what March Madness is, let's all drink beer.
00:09:28.000And then cracking open beer, had nothing to do with any kind of promotional can or anything like that.
00:09:32.000And then all of a sudden everyone was like, screw Bud Light.
00:09:36.000And it's tagged with the like, hashtag Bud Light partner or something like that.
00:09:40.000Like it's denoted as a form of advertising.
00:09:42.000I think what the strangest part of it, like you're right.
00:09:44.000I'm actually glad that there's not a specific targeting of Dylan Mulvaney because Dylan Mulvaney is doing exactly what Dylan Mulvaney has always done and you can have separate criticism of that, but Anheuser-Busch chose to partner with him and if You put people in positions of power in your company who thought this was a good idea.
00:10:01.000I'm glad that you're starting to rethink this.
00:10:02.000I would like them to admit that they're just saying, like, our rigorous screening process is we will hire some conservatives after years and years of hiring liberals.
00:10:10.000Probably what they're talking about is, okay, we can't say we goofed up and they're all fired because then the trans community will say we're horrible and bigoted and all of that.
00:10:23.000Here's how I imagine the meeting goes down.
00:10:25.000They tell everybody, look, we understand your concern, we're gonna have a meeting in DC, come meet.
00:10:29.000And they all walk in and there's a guy in a suit and he goes, listen, our customers are dumb as dumb gets.
00:10:47.000I mean, I don't know if it's quite that extreme, but they are definitely trying to run away from it as opposed to addressing it and saying they're sorry.
00:10:55.000And I do think that apologizing is appropriate because they're seeing a distinct reaction from their user base, from their customer base.
00:11:10.000Many of you may be wondering, why is this so important?
00:11:14.000Why have we talked about this for three weeks now?
00:11:16.000Why are we leading the show with it right now?
00:11:18.000Because I want to make sure that every major corporation knows that when you engage in sponsorships and advertising like this, it will be so toxic to your company, you will be reeling from it.
00:11:34.000It's been it's been entirely uh no negative response from all of the essentially since you know the the since June became you know Pride Month and has been celebrated so openly in the West and and For probably the past 10 years or so, there's not been any kind of considerable pushback.
00:11:54.000And to see something pushing back to say, hey, maybe we should moderate this a little bit.
00:11:59.000Because at this point, the trans question, that is not built on solid arguments.
00:12:27.000But more to the point, my biggest concern is they effectively sponsored Elsagate.
00:12:36.000Right, the easiest way for me to explain what went down with the Dilma Veni sponsorship is, a person exploited an algorithm to produce strange and off-putting content that was offensive to a lot of women, a lot of, and men, and then Budweiser did no research, said, whatever, look, this person's got followers, it must be popular.
00:12:56.000But I do think it's a fantastic wake-up call as to what AI is doing to humans.
00:13:00.000Humans and what AI promotes, or I shouldn't say AI, but algorithms, it is incongruous.
00:13:07.000Just because someone has views does not mean they are popular.
00:13:12.000And I hope that if we keep the pressure on, then other corporations will start to realize, like, hey, look, just because that person's on TV doesn't mean they're popular.
00:13:22.000You gotta get the algorithms to really internalize retweets or not endorsements.
00:13:40.000So really, like, anyone commenting on Dylan's post being like, this is terrible, is actually just still helping.
00:13:46.000Do you get into the comments on T-Rex arm stuff still currently?
00:13:51.000As much as I can, and primarily to learn more about our customers, not any other reason.
00:13:58.000We talked to some marketing folks last week who said, yeah, even if your company responds to every comment on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, that greatly affects the algorithm.
00:14:09.000Even if you stop by and go thumbs up, you're adding to the comment count, and that makes a difference.
00:14:13.000So when do you get the trans-shooters?
00:14:45.000Activists started- this is the weirdest thing!
00:14:48.000Leftist screen grabbed my post, and then started insulting me over it, and I'm like, it's so weird that I said something they should agree with, and instead, they attacked me, and then filed a DMCA takedown to get the photo deleted from my Twitter account, and then I'm just like, I don't know what these people think, because I'm like two-way all the way.
00:15:09.000I had a guy tweet at me saying, you think only white people should have guns.
00:15:19.000These people live in a wacky alternate dimension of what we here believe.
00:15:23.000It is interesting though, I did notice, and I could be wrong, an uptick in the, obviously when the shooting occurred a couple weeks ago, there were lots of gun companies, and I also tweeted some things about, you know, calling into question, you know, should gun companies, and this is a big discussion happening right now, do we have to serve and service everyone who wants to own a gun, or can we go, hey, this is what we believe is a company, we're interested in selling to these types of people?
00:15:48.000We put our core values out there and usually some people aren't going to agree with those, so they're not going to come and buy from us.
00:15:53.000And it did look like after the shooting in Tennessee occurred, the trans community was definitely much more interested in talking about guns and gun rights for themselves and getting involved in that whole thing.
00:16:04.000I had all kinds of people stopping by my Twitter, giving their opinion.
00:16:08.000And I feel like a year ago, probably when you posted that flag, that was not as much of a discussion and they were probably more anti-gun.
00:16:13.000Now they're like, oh no, now we need to be pro-gun.
00:16:31.000There's an interesting discussion that's emerged following what happened in Nashville where they're saying, You know, a bunch of conservatives are like, maybe we shouldn't allow trans people to have guns, or something like that.
00:16:40.000And I'm just like, not interested in that.
00:16:43.000If someone poses a clear and present danger, or like, I mean like, they're literally on the path to using a weapon, you can stop them.
00:16:51.000But short of, I guess, due process, maybe they committed a felony, and a court has determined through a legal process, like due process, your rights cannot be infringed upon.
00:18:51.000So, the NRA has done some good things, like the Sunset Clause for the weapons assault ban and all that, but for the most part, they are extremely fuddy.
00:18:58.000The worst thing about the NRA that people won't talk about is their training programs, which are, like, they have a rule.
00:19:05.000You are not allowed to call a gun a weapon.
00:20:19.000The plunger gets stuck and all that stuff.
00:20:21.000And then when it comes to loading even like, you know, a Glock with 9mm, they have speed loaders for a reason.
00:20:27.000If you're trained in your practice, you can load it fairly quickly.
00:20:30.000But I just think anybody who has a gun understands that if you hear a glass shatter and then someone yells, boys let's go!" You're gonna be like, uh oh, and then you're
00:20:38.000gonna open the box and you're gonna be like, just give me a second, let me push these in
00:20:42.000and load this. No, it has to, like, when you're, when you are being prepared for self-defense,
00:20:48.000you need to have your weapon prepared and safely secured in a way, you know,
00:20:51.000that you can access it and that it's responsible. But what's the point, someone told
00:20:57.000me this when And then have a serious conversation with yourself.
00:21:00.000time I was getting a weapon, what's proper like storage and safety protocol. And I'm going to
00:21:04.000keep it relatively vague for the show, but they just basically said, what's the point of having
00:21:08.000a weapon if you can't readily access it to defend yourself from an intruder? So just consider that.
00:21:13.000Yep. And then have a serious conversation with yourself.
00:21:15.000What is a gun for? Yeah, they are for homo sapiens.
00:21:18.000They were designed ever since gunpowder was, you know, developed and then it was used for fire fireworks to disrupt cavalry charges.
00:21:26.000After that, it was always weaponized for human beings.
00:21:33.000Every time I say that they go, they go, Oh, Lucas, you can't say that.
00:21:35.000Cause then the left's going to use that to ban stuff.
00:21:37.000I'm like, no, the reason we're in all this mess and gun regulations are happening is we've always been on the defense and culturally we're losing because of it.
00:21:45.000We won't just say the facts and what's going on.
00:23:04.000Well, so the mental, that whole thing's interesting because the issue that I have with that whole conversation is, by what standard and who gets to define if someone is mentally unwell?
00:23:17.000Because if I go to the right, you know, doctor, clinician, or whatever, and I say, I really like guns for these reasons, this is what I actually think about the government, this is what I think about balkanization of our country, XYZ, they could say, You're a little unwell for thinking these things.
00:23:39.000I'm not saying that would happen today, but in 10 years, I mean, who gets to standardize who is mentally well?
00:23:45.000And so that's a pretty slippery slope.
00:23:47.000This is why when a couple of years ago we were talking about felons and firearms, and I said, as soon as you get out of jail, you get your right to keep and bear arms.
00:24:07.000Meaning, you have a right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but if you break the law, we can deprive you of those rights through due process.
00:24:12.000Meaning, you went to a judge, there was a hearing, you were found guilty.
00:24:33.000Because we are at the point of polarization in this country where like you said, you will say something like, I think everybody should have guns.
00:24:43.000I also wonder how the mental health screenings work because we have the shooter in Louisville whose parents were like, no, he was having some sort of crisis.
00:24:49.000We were aware of it, but he was able to get a gun theoretically.
00:24:54.000Wouldn't this have triggered something?
00:24:55.000I feel like some people can... I just don't understand the practical applications of some of these things.
00:24:59.000Yeah, and the problem is the government and people want to play minority report.
00:25:03.000They want to stop the crime before it happens.
00:25:08.000The AI, chat, GP7, whatever is gonna probably do it.
00:25:13.000But it's not practical and it's not going to work.
00:25:16.000And it's only going to cause, and we've seen this up north where red flag laws have gotten innocent people killed where they show up to the doorstep, the guy comes out, There's an altercation.
00:25:31.000And besides that, according to all these shootings that have happened, at least in the last, like, five years, supposedly the FBI already knew about the person.
00:25:48.000They're like, maybe we'll help you do that crime.
00:25:51.000Yeah, it's a slippery slope, and it's not something that I think conservatives and people in general need to get away from, and just go, when a crime happens, we have people there who can shoot back, and that's how we resolve it.
00:26:04.000Because we call the cops to resolve it while it's happening, so why not address it sooner when the incident actually occurs?
00:26:11.000And if we saw that happen more often, A lot of these shootings would go down if people realized, like, hey, if we posted photos of the corpse of the shooter afterwards, kind of like what happened in Tennessee, a lot less of this shooter culture would be happening.
00:26:51.000Nashville trans shooters manifesto to be released by authorities.
00:26:56.000Metro Nashville Police Department Public Information Office told Fox 17 on Thursday the investigation has advanced to the point that writings from the Covenant shooter are now being reviewed for public release.
00:27:05.000That process is underway and will take a little time.
00:27:08.000So, uh, I think we're gonna get it soon.
00:27:11.000And what we already know is that it does relate to politics.
00:27:16.000And what we've heard from various news sources, and even we've had some people reach out saying that they were either in the know or something, so it's all unconfirmed.
00:27:26.000There have been other shows saying they have inside sources that suggest this individual was anti-Trump, was angry over the conservative politics and the banning on transgender surgery, child sex change surgery and things like that, and they were trying to, you know, maximize that carnage.
00:27:42.000So I think it'll be interesting to see, and I'm curious, how it manifests in the public, because when this happened,
00:27:49.000within days the Democrats turned it into a fundraiser for themselves.
00:27:52.000It is, I look at the aftermath of it, the way that the Democratic Party and the politicians
00:27:59.000surrounding the situation have behaved, it is atrocious.
00:28:05.000And I thought that I was not, I thought that I got to a point where I couldn't be shocked
00:28:36.000I think the important distinction with this individual, because I'll bring it back to gun rights, is people saw this shooter was trans, therefore they were talking about banning guns for trans people.
00:28:47.000And I'm like, no, no, this was a leftist gender ideologue.
00:28:51.000I think it's important that we have a distinction between someone who happens to be transgender and someone who is in a cult of a varying ideology.
00:29:00.000Because there are people who are trans who are nowhere near that ideology, and we're friends.
00:29:04.000And it's just like, I don't want my friend's rights curtailed because this person's a leftist wacko.
00:29:28.000And so even then, even with the worldview, people have a right to keep in bare arms.
00:29:32.000Leftists have a right to keep in bare arms, and I'm not gonna... But I will say, we're getting to the point where it's not gonna matter whether you want them to or not if it's active conflict.
00:29:42.000If you have people who are of leftist ideology, like that dude at the ICE facility, I think it was in Tacoma, who firebombed and started shooting at it, or the guy who killed Aaron Danielson, at a certain point it's like, okay, we need to stop violent political extremists.
00:31:16.000But I think the appropriate response is if someone wearing Antifa gear walked into a gun shop, they should be like, let me know what you need.
00:31:24.000I don't think... That is the philosophical challenge right now.
00:31:28.000Should a business be like, no, you are our enemies, you are dangerous, and I will not sell you this weapon?
00:31:36.000Correct me if I'm wrong, but if someone at a gun store has suspicions that a person may use a weapon for criminal ends... They can deny sale.
00:31:43.000But isn't it a requirement to deny sale?
00:31:46.000Um, probably, it technically probably is.
00:32:10.000Effectively an accessory to the crime.
00:32:12.000So then if someone comes in wearing Antifa gear, You could.
00:32:16.000I might be like, oh, man, I don't know, dude.
00:32:18.000Well, yeah, if it's like, let's say, let's go back to the peaceful times in 2020 and someone walks in right then when all that stuff's going on in, let's say, Oregon.
00:32:35.000I say, if I owned a gun store, and it was during the summer of love, and someone with Antifa BLM gear came on, I'd be like, get out right now.
00:32:43.000One of my closest friends in New Hampshire, the gun shop that Highlander Arms, a buddy of mine, owns, like, if someone went in there and he knew that they were a leftist, there is no way.
00:33:06.000Like, they would be like, okay, here you go, have a good time.
00:33:09.000Yeah, but I feel like if a guy with, like, an Antifa bandana and, like, a shirt and everything walked in there and it was like, it's time to go fight for justice, where are the guns?
00:34:24.000They pulled the ARs, like, what was it, six years ago, four years ago, after a shooting, and they were like, we're not gonna sell those weapons of war, we'll just sell shotguns.
00:35:21.000But either way, like, I kind of feel like It would be fairly brutal to use a 12 gauge on somebody in your home and put like a 10 inch hole in their chest.
00:35:34.000And again, this is like FUD knowledge from the past.
00:35:37.000Shotguns are so much harder to use well by an untrained person than handing them an AR-15.
00:35:42.000I mean, the AK-47 originally was designed for the average conscript to use.
00:35:47.000Very simple to manipulate and function.
00:35:50.000A shotgun, on the other hand, if it's a pump, you got to pump it every time you pull the trigger, which already mentally, if you haven't trained that, most people aren't going to rack a second round.
00:36:58.000Yeah, so for those that aren't, it can hold 25 shotgun shells, and we're at the range, and it's loaded with buckshot, and the wave of devastation is bonkers.
00:37:15.000An M1A is an assault weapon, and I'm like, that's kind of weird, because for those that don't understand, if you've got 25 shells, you've got 25 shells buckshot, I'm watching this thing just melt the target, the wood flying everywhere, it's being ripped apart like a chainsaw is gutting it from every direction.
00:38:00.000But that's the crazy thing to me, that that's the argument they always go to is get a shotgun, and I'm like, there's exotic rounds, there's weird stuff.
00:39:26.000When you see Congress people interrogating people that are in the regulatory body, the ATF that is charged with regulating firearms, and they know nothing.
00:39:39.000Someone asked him, he's like, you don't know the difference between 556 and 300 blackout?
00:40:21.000Because I was talking to someone at the ATF a few weeks ago, you know, an inside man, just getting some information, and they don't like the FBI.
00:41:24.000My tweet was essentially, the ATF should get removed when the gun laws are removed at the same time so the FBI can't do anything squirrely and weird.
00:41:32.000And as long as you're, I mean, it's not really that tall of an order to get rid of federal gun laws because the federal government doesn't have extensive gun laws thanks to the Second Amendment.
00:41:42.000There's really limits placed on what the feds can actually do.
00:41:45.000But here's the most important question.
00:41:47.000The ATF has just imposed a rule without Congress making it illegal to own an item attached to a weapon that will make, what, hundreds of thousands of people criminals?
00:42:32.000And the brace thing, it's going to be the exact same thing.
00:42:34.000They're going to fight it for two years.
00:42:36.000The issue is for resellers, like Gun Broker, for example, the day that went out, or the next day that went out, they pulled all listings of guns with braces off of their website.
00:42:44.000Let me provide people with some context real quick just because it may be a little bit esoteric for a lot of people.
00:42:49.000There are pistols and there are people who are disabled.
00:42:54.000In order to fire the pistol, they attach a brace which goes onto your forearm so you can hold it.
00:42:59.000However, they can adjust in length, they're retractable, and so some people, and these are bad people, I tell ya, they pushed it up to their shoulder to simulate a stock.
00:43:10.000Because a brace can simulate a stock, they've now made it illegal.
00:44:21.000There's no way I would have known about this.
00:44:23.000And so sure enough, when the news comes out, it's like, okay, we got to go.
00:44:26.000And I think there were, I think like three and we took them off and we moved them and stored them somewhere else.
00:44:29.000I mean, I am a, you know, I'm a, I'm a guy that shoots a lot and I paid a lot of attention to guns and I'm, you know, active in the gun world and at least enough to be aware of what's going on.
00:44:40.000And to think that the average person is going to do that kind of stuff when they've got, they've got a family, they've got work, they've got kids, they've got all kinds of election coming up.
00:44:51.000It's like they're normal people with normal lives.
00:44:54.000And that's something that I think a lot of people that are wrapped up in this kind of stuff don't realize.
00:44:58.000Your average person doesn't spend their days paying attention to the details about what, you know, what laws are passed or whatever.
00:45:05.000And when you can go to, you know, you can go to like Runnings in New England, there's this, it's essentially tractor supply that sells guns as well.
00:45:13.000But you can buy a 10-inch pistol, or you could buy a 10-inch pistol, and some dude just goes and he's like, oh, I can pick this up for $1,500, go home, and I shoot it once in a while, that doesn't watch Guntube stuff, and he doesn't know that he's now a felon, or he's gonna be a felon, or whatever.
00:45:54.000Not only are we looking at 27 constitutional carry states, I think Nebraska and Florida are next to go into effect, but 3D printed guns exist.
00:46:19.000And the thing that gun control people could do if they were smart is they would go after, they would use OSHA compliance and they would try to shut down businesses and make it harder for businesses to function.
00:46:29.000Businesses would have to raise the prices to offset that.
00:46:31.000I know, but I'm telling everyone who's on here who needs to understand these things.
00:46:34.000Because I run a business, I can actually talk about this.
00:46:37.000That's how they could actually shut down a lot of people from owning guns and make it so only people in like the six-figure income bracket could actually afford guns.
00:46:45.000That would be the way to do it because they're not going to actually ban weapons anytime soon.
00:46:49.000But in states like Washington, I mean, they just did and now that's being fought.
00:46:53.000So in some of the really blue states, like super blue states, I think we will see those bans at least be in effect for another 10-20 years until culture can shift and change.
00:47:02.000But nationally, it's not gonna happen.
00:47:04.000I just wanna point out, like, it's kind of amazing that we are winning this well.
00:48:24.000Did states ever get to control who... I'm sorry, I'm not up on my gun history.
00:48:29.000I think back in the day, they took guns to schools, actually.
00:48:33.000The thing is, a lot of people that are anti-gun will sit there and they'll say, well, you never had this right, you never had that right, et cetera, et cetera.
00:48:38.000But that's essentially spinning reality on its head.
00:48:42.000Because the idea that you were prohibited was foreign to a free people.
00:48:49.000If you are by your nature free, then the idea that you don't have this right is completely foreign to the concept of you being free.
00:49:18.000And then The only thing the government can do is infringe upon those, which the Second Amendment is ostensibly supposed to prevent, which it does a poor job of in my estimation.
00:49:28.000They did go back to that and go, hey, according to this thing, you know, in order to pass regulations, you can't just say it's for public safety because you can't actually argue that.
00:49:43.000I think it was sort of struck down and then it was kind of struck down again because there was something about it recently.
00:49:47.000Again, I didn't really But like, they're once again legal.
00:49:51.000Yes, but I don't think anyone will come out and start selling them or putting them on a gun broker or anything like that, because it's still kind of that weird burnt child syndrome.
00:49:58.000They're like, it's a butt sock, Trump banned it, don't really want to do anything with it.
00:50:02.000And so the real thing they're doing is, when they say pistol braces are banned, people get rid of them, detach them.
00:50:09.000Stop selling them, companies go out of business.
00:50:10.000And then they lose, and then people are like, wow, we don't have them anymore.
00:51:24.000Well, I think that's a lot of the issue.
00:51:26.000My issue, and I've been speaking about this for like the last six years, is gun owners, sugar coat, like the modern sporting rifle is a perfect example.
00:51:34.000Companies go, well, we can't call it an M4.
00:53:01.000They don't want medications, puberty blockers, hormones, and surgery for children.
00:53:07.000So these children have to, you know, be adults before making these decisions.
00:53:10.000But now the DOJ has announced that they are going to, under the 14th Amendment, try and block this ban from happening.
00:53:18.000They argue, SB1, the bill, makes it unlawful to provide or offer to provide certain types of medical care for transgender minors with diagnosed gender dysphoria.
00:53:28.000SB1's blanket ban prohibits potential treatment options that have been recommended by major medical associations for consideration in limited circumstances in accordance with established and comprehensive guidelines, etc., etc., by denying only transgender youth access to these forms of medically necessary care, while allowing non-transgender minors access to the same or similar procedures.
00:53:50.000It discriminates against transgender youth.
00:53:52.000The DOJ is arguing that non-trans kids are undergoing sex change surgery.
00:53:59.000If that's the case, we've got a bigger problem than just this one bill.
00:54:02.000There are caveats in most bills, including Tennessee's, that say children who are born with a genetic defect, they don't identify as Shans.
00:54:42.000But it makes sense to permit them... Vanishingly small.
00:54:45.000Right, but they want to use that to argue, well, we should do it for everyone!
00:54:48.000Well, now that we're seeing tens of thousands of kids undergoing procedures of some sort over the past few years, it's getting into like, I think it's 60 or so thousand.
00:54:56.000We went over this when Destiny was here.
00:54:58.000Yeah, 40-some-odd thousand taking cross-sex hormones or puberty blockers and then it's in the thousands of Teenage girls who are getting mastectomies.
00:55:07.000Can you imagine if a country, because you know, Europe, they're banning it.
00:55:11.000If a foreign country in the future, say in 10 years, and we've got just all this stuff going on, it's like, we're gonna invade America to free the oppressed and get rid of this stuff that's destroying kids, and a foreign nation wanted to invade us over that.
00:55:24.000You know, if I was gonna look at history, and you're gonna look at an invasion or something, If a foreign invader, let's say it was like, I don't know, a European nation, we'll call it like a water... Call it Germany, they're good at it.
00:55:38.000Let's just say there's like a big land mass in Europe and it's surrounded by water.
00:55:44.000And then maybe there's like a smaller landmass to the west, and then people from one go to the other, and then say like, you can't have kids anymore, and you can't speak your language.
00:55:52.000One way to, you know, get rid of that lineage is to stop them from having kids, avoiding their kids, or sterilizing their kids.
00:56:11.000I think there is a deep nihilism that comes from most of the philosophies that come from the left.
00:56:18.000I think that there is a real significant dislike of humanity.
00:56:24.000The whole environmental movement, I feel like, is anti-human.
00:56:30.000A lot of the left, I feel like, is anti-human.
00:56:34.000When you say stuff like that, it doesn't sound like you're talking about something crazy.
00:56:39.000It fits right in with my kind of concept of the way the left thinks, you know?
00:56:43.000It comes from the same sphere of humanity that produces articles that's like, here are 30 women who talk about why they regret having children and it's like all selfish reasons.
00:56:51.000I will point out that the DOJ sued Alabama for similar reasons.
00:57:00.000Alabama has a Senate Bill 184 and it's effectively very similar, right?
00:57:06.000It's restricting the medical procedures that you can offer children who identify as transgender and they classify it as part of their push to prevent a gender-based discrimination and I find this to be Such a blatant show of activism.
00:57:23.000And you have to wonder, who is backing this?
00:57:28.000I guess I have never really liked the federal government, so it's easy for me to say we should let the states regulate on their own.
00:57:34.000But on the left, Are you really that interested in authoritarianism where you can have a justice department that just actively tries to selectively push its agenda?
00:57:43.000Like, at what point does that become appealing to someone?
00:57:45.000When you're growing up, when do you start thinking like, you know what I really want?
00:57:49.000A really strong central government that promotes an ideology that destroys children.
00:57:53.000I don't think that the government – I think the government is a – from their perspective, the government is a necessary evil to achieve the ends that they're looking for.
00:58:02.000And they don't think about the fact that when you empower the government, you never – it just continues to amass power.
00:58:13.000The other part that I find interesting is that the DOJ put out this statement saying this is a terrible thing to do, especially for transgender
00:58:19.000identifying youth, or they say transgender youth, but who are already at risk of suicide,
00:58:24.000depression, etc. And then the Tennessee Attorney General, his office put out a statement saying
00:58:30.000like, actually no, this is not a confirmed way to treat children.
00:58:37.000In fact, having them go through these treatments can increase suicide, anxiety, and depression.
00:58:41.000And so they're at this crossroads where, you know, we really don't know what to do with this issue.
00:58:46.000And so you can kind of argue the same thing and end up on different ends.
00:58:50.000It's the same screen, two different movies, like Scott Adams says.
00:58:55.000Is there a significant appetite for this stuff around Nashville?
00:58:58.000Do you feel like there's a lot of people that are like, Or does it seem like this stuff is coming out of nowhere and there's not a lot of support for it?
00:59:06.000It does seem like something that comes out of nowhere.
00:59:09.000I'm not a real big conspiracy theorist, but when all this stuff is being talked about, none of this is shocking to me.
00:59:16.000And the reason this isn't shocking to me is, for the last 50 years, everyone has been desensitized to being okay with murdering babies.
00:59:24.000It's something like 63 million, I think is what I wrote down.
00:59:27.000I was doing some research earlier today.
00:59:29.00063 million babies have been aborted in the last 50 years just here in our country.
00:59:35.000We can do it at four weeks, six weeks, eight weeks.
00:59:38.000I think someone was telling me it was either the West Virginia governor a couple years ago was saying after the baby was born, or it was Virginia governor, I can't remember.
01:00:23.000So as long as you're aware and you're resisting it, then the likelihood they convert your kids into being, you know, anti-baby is very low.
01:00:30.000Well, and the trans thing too, I mean, I've only seen a few, you know, stories come out of kids afterwards who say they regret, you know, you read it.
01:00:39.000Honestly, it's probably the most sad, depressing thing I ever see are the stories of those kids who are like, I can never get this back, I made this decision, or my parents had me make this decision, I can't do anything.
01:00:48.000And I feel like In the next, like, five years, those are going to blow up.
01:00:52.000There's going to be a lot more of those.
01:00:53.000Or the suicide rate's going to go up even more.
01:00:55.000So at what point are people really going to ask the question?
01:00:57.000Or are they going to squish all those stories and just keep doing it?
01:01:05.000They would go to people and say, I think the appropriate treatment for your child is for us to remove a portion of their frontal lobe through their nose or something like that.
01:01:11.000And then they would turn their kids into zombies.
01:01:16.000She's the first daughter, so it was Joe, John, and then Rosemary, and she had, they believe, like, didn't have enough oxygen when she was born.
01:01:22.000She always had some sort of brain disorder, and it became progressively worse, and her parents eventually heard, like, hey, there's this cool new treatment.
01:01:30.000It might be able to help, and they were desperate.
01:01:32.000I mean, I think everyone looking back recognizes how wrong they were, but when you don't have the information, I could understand.
01:01:38.000Right, but even then there was enough, I mean I think at the time when she had her lobotomy it was only like a hundred people had undergone them, which like already seems like too many, but again if you didn't know and if they're, as they were, misrepresenting the results of these things, I mean...
01:01:53.000I understand wanting to help the people you love and especially if you're desperate, but I think it's obvious in this case that waiting is the best course of action, right?
01:02:03.000Offering other forms of therapy and really discussing with your child, like, what's going on is so much safer than saying, take these drugs, alter your body.
01:02:13.000Well, and I also feel like I saw a video, I think it was Jordan Peterson who posted it earlier today, and this obviously isn't happening for everyone, but it's probably happening more than people want to admit.
01:02:21.000There was this bunch of TikTok videos of this dad with his trans daughter, and the report was that he was using her for likes and attention.
01:02:32.000And that right there has all sorts of problems with it, but I would be curious how many parents are going through with this to keep up with the Joneses.
01:02:50.000We're seeing it in California, but not Ohio.
01:02:53.000So either there's something happening in the water in California, or they're socializing their kids this way.
01:02:59.000Well, and during COVID, when students went home, there were all these anecdotal reports about, we used to have, you know, six identifying, trans-identifying students, and now it's only one of them, a bunch of them, decided when they were home with their families that they didn't actually feel this way, right?
01:03:53.000But the issue is, The video's got half a million views, the tweet itself, I think, has two million views, so I'm interested in talking about, to a certain degree, what it is, because it is a thing people are watching, but more so the ethics of why this should not be a thing, and how I think it's being weaponized against Steven Crowder.
01:04:10.000So, to put it simply, there's a few big stories right now.
01:04:13.000One, you may have seen Steven Crowder put out a video where he said that he's going through a divorce, it's horrendous, and that he, I think he said he's being extorted, is that what he said?
01:04:25.000He said, if you know what extortion is, like, this is what it feels like, or something like that.
01:04:28.000Now the media, Daily Beast reports Steven Crowder's extortion war with Candace Owens blows up, and I'm wondering, how is it that Steven Crowder's divorce has become something for, like, Yasher to publish?
01:05:24.000Because, like, when I hear the story that Crowder's fighting with his wife because he wants to use the car and he doesn't want her to use the car, I'm kind of like... Maybe the other car's in the shop.
01:06:18.000I mean it is like it is possible that someone at ring but I mean I do I think I think I did I'm just gonna say it come on man who do you think his wife yeah she's he's getting divorced so who and he said it's become increasingly hostile like I wonder if this is actually something got submitted to the court I don't want to accuse I don't know that she did I'm just saying Crowder in this video He's not gonna release that footage.
01:07:27.000And it's actually impossible to judge because you, we don't know them.
01:07:30.000Like we don't know them on this level.
01:07:31.000I mean, it's, it's something that I think as a culture, especially women are increasingly aware of, like, you need to be careful about the dynamics you put yourself in.
01:07:40.000And, like, I do know people who have been in really controlling relationships where, like, only having one car is a part of that.
01:07:47.000But I don't know the crowders well enough to have any context to believe that's where this comes from, right?
01:07:52.000Like, it's- it's, I think, hard not to read- you have to be careful not to read your own experience into it.
01:07:58.000Like, if you have been in a dangerous situation, you might see it, But if you haven't, you may not.
01:08:24.000Do they actually know what they're talking about?
01:08:27.000You know, I'll probably get in trouble to some degree for saying my opinions on this, because I think it's a stupid story that shouldn't be published.
01:08:34.000But when I see camera footage released that's got a 20-second clip that makes someone like Crowder look bad, and then... I'll just put it this way.
01:08:46.000If there was a recording of say like, let's say Phil Labonte was accused of wrongdoing, and then all of a sudden a recording emerges, and I'm like, hello there Phil, tell me about that time you bought illegal drugs.
01:08:58.000And then Phil's like, what are you talking about?
01:08:59.000You know, the illegal drugs you bought.
01:09:03.000You'd kind of assume that someone was intending on that recording existing for purposes of implicating another person.
01:09:09.000So when I see this, and again, without accusing anybody, because I don't know, when I see this and someone says, let me tell you about your abuse, Steven, I'm like, what?
01:09:26.000And my response to that is like, dude, if someone walked up to me in my room and accused me of something as serious as that, I might be like, excuse me?
01:09:44.000I mean, anything... At this point, with the way the culture war is going, anybody that is a prominent figure on the right, it is every opportunity that someone on the left can take to knock you down or to smear you, they're going to take.
01:10:04.000It's something that people that are on the right have to be aware of.
01:10:24.000I think it's really hard because Saying really nasty things one time, like does that constitute being an abusive person or is it just you lost control in this one moment, right?
01:10:33.000Like we have no way to know what the pattern of their relationship is and that's why it's hard to see this stuff online because like they have children, the internet is forever, is this one terrible fight for a couple that's already falling apart or is this a pattern of behavior that it's hard for the public to wrap their heads around because he is a public figure?
01:10:50.000Well, this could be another issue of, I mean, often, not always, but in relationships, it's not always just one person at fault.
01:11:01.000There's not always a good guy and a bad guy.
01:11:02.000Sometimes it's just two kind of bad guys duking it out.
01:11:06.000I just think that's a whole nother, again, there's just not enough context to know, but I also know, and maybe this is maybe a little bit of personal experience, I've been married for two years now, being in a position like he's in of constant criticism under a microscope at all times, that can put stress on a marriage.
01:11:22.000I didn't watch the three minute- I didn't realize Yasha released the entire three and a half minutes.
01:11:26.000I watched the clip on Twitter, and when I opened up the article on my phone, the video wasn't there.
01:11:31.000Like, I didn't see the video there until just now.
01:11:33.000So that's my mistake, so I apologize for that.
01:11:35.000He snaps at her, saying, watch it, effing watch it, I will F you up, which led to his wife fleeing their home.
01:11:40.000So, like, I think it's bad, and I'm just- I'm like...
01:11:45.000The issue I take with it is it's personal, private stuff.
01:11:47.000If Crowder did wrong, he's paying the price for it.
01:11:50.000The only reason it's news is because Crowder is a prominent figure who's challenging the establishment, and they know that they can take him down with something like this.
01:11:57.000They've been waiting for something like this.
01:11:59.000If Crowder did something wrong in this moment, he should apologize for being wrong and doing the wrong thing.
01:13:01.000I don't- I don't care to condemn someone because of clip.
01:13:05.000Even the three minute- three and a half minute one, I read the quote where he said that and stuff like that and it's like, man, to take three minutes of someone's life and then condemn them over that without knowing everything else...
01:13:18.000Unless there was like serious, like, let's say he got up and started beating, that'd be different.
01:13:22.000Cause then it'd be like, okay, that's pretty obvious.
01:13:24.000That should be reported to the police.
01:13:25.000But I think that's like one of the issues that so many people have about abuse, like the way people talk about abuse is because like, if like someone punched me in the face, right, we would all agree that's been not okay.
01:13:35.000But if you are constantly in a place where you're like in fear because of the way you're being treated, the way you're talking to, like being talked to, stuff like that, like that is psychologically damaging.
01:13:46.000In some ways, we wish abuse was more clear-cut and, like, in this case, like, we just don't have the context to know what's going on.
01:13:51.000That's why it's like, I wish this wasn't out here.
01:13:53.000I wish we weren't, we didn't have to talk about it or address it because, like, I would never, I don't think you can accurately prescribe what's going on from three minutes.
01:14:03.000If it is a really toxic dynamic, I hope both of them get help.
01:14:06.000And if it's, this was just a bad moment, I, again, I have to reiterate, like, they have children.
01:14:12.000And that's who's suffering the most from all of this.
01:14:15.000Yeah, and the issue here too is they'll both be bothered by it.
01:14:18.000They go through with the divorce, she goes somewhere else, people will always know her as the woman in this clip, and he'll always be known as the dude in this clip.
01:14:54.000And you're the victim. And I feel like I suffered.
01:14:56.000I mean, it's not an OK way to handle it, in my opinion.
01:14:58.000But again, it's my opinion I did not have to be involved with any of this and I again I just think that like these videos last forever and their kids are going to inevitably Google themselves and this will come up People are saying, like, don't defend Steven, blah blah blah, and I'm like, bro, I have seen so many videos from protests, or of people who are supposedly innocent being beaten by cops or whatever, and then the full video comes out.
01:15:21.000And so I'm just saying, like, I'm not saying Steven's perfect.
01:15:24.000He probably has to apologize for a lot, okay?
01:15:27.000But the fact is, this is being weaponized by people who just want to take down Steven Crowder for political reasons.
01:15:33.000Well, and if all of us examined ourselves, I mean, I know there have been nights that I've neglected my wife, not done things for her, and if there were clips posted of me sitting at my computer gaming and not spending time with her, people would be like, Whoa, look how selfish Lucas is playing video games and not spending time with his wife!
01:15:48.000I mean, how many of us are guilty of similar things?
01:15:58.000I can't believe he said that and that's like your wife's laughing and she's like oh and you know exactly but context matters too.
01:16:03.000What I don't like about this video is I just The question of who leaked it.
01:16:09.000And if it was leaked, is this like, was someone aware that they were having a recording created and they said things, you know what I mean?
01:16:16.000Just like, imagine if you walked up to somebody who trusted you and didn't think that you would leak a recording of them or whatever.
01:16:24.000And then they said something to you intentionally to make you angry that you knew wasn't true and there's nothing you can say.
01:16:29.000Like, if I went to film and was like, I know you stole my bike.
01:17:24.000This doesn't make, again, it doesn't make the exchange better at all, but like, it makes me wonder, like, you know, if you realize that you're in a terrible dynamic with someone, like, do you do work?
01:17:33.000Do you seek out a priest or a therapist?
01:17:36.000Like, how do you work through these things?
01:17:38.000And like, at what point, like, we'll never know the context of what's going on or what afterwards looks like.
01:19:32.000I don't want to, like... I guess one thing that Yasha reports is that Crowder actually got a divorce lawyer, like, in advance or something.
01:19:44.000Crowder is a person that they've been desperate to get rid of for a very, very long time.
01:19:49.000He's extremely prominent and effective when it comes to messaging and humor and building culture.
01:19:55.000He's the only competition for, well, Gutfeld now, but for a while it was the only right-leaning competition to late-night comedy or morning talk shows.
01:20:07.000I'm just saying it gives me pause and makes me, you know, I find it suspicious.
01:20:12.000Well, and there are a lot of people who have chaotic personal lives who can do good, right?
01:20:18.000Like, it doesn't make the messaging and, like, the entertainment value and the things that he has done to, like, introduce people to all kinds of important ideas less valuable.
01:20:26.000It just means that he is a flawed person, but so is everyone at the end of the day.
01:20:33.000Like I know I've mistreated people in relationships and, and even people at work and then also my wife neglecting her or whatever.
01:20:41.000And I think a lot of people just are unwilling to acknowledge that.
01:20:44.000Then they want to go judge everyone else's lifestyle instead of going, Oh, am I actually making some of the same mistakes?
01:20:50.000And that, I think that's a lot of the problem.
01:20:52.000And a lot of the reason they want to go after someone like Crowder or other people who are having issues with their, their own life is so that they can prop themselves up and feel good.
01:20:59.000It's like, no, you're actually doing that in another way, you just won't see that.
01:21:03.000But people are saying it's Crowder's fault he brought this up.
01:21:06.000It's like, maybe the reason Crowder brought it up was because his wife gave the video footage to journalists.
01:21:12.000And he knew it, and he was like, there's nothing I can do about it now, they're gonna publish this footage so I'll get in front of it.
01:21:17.000Now people are acting like that's proof they had no choice but to release the footage and give a statement because Crowder brought it up.
01:21:23.000And it's like, if this has been going on for two years and Crowder didn't say anything at all, ever, until Yasir Ali, like, right, was about, like, was just about to publish the story, it kind of lends itself to, they took this move against Crowder, not the other way around.
01:21:47.000I mean, I imagine so, but I don't imagine that his audience is gonna... I mean, it depends on what comes out.
01:21:54.000If it's bad-mouthing and fighting and, you know, bitterly arguing with his wife, people probably won't leave him, like, high and dry.
01:22:02.000They'll just be like, okay, you were kind of crappy, just so long as it's not too grossly offensive.
01:22:07.000If it comes out that he was doing, you know, other kind of things that kind of cross physical lines or whatever, then he might lose an audience.
01:22:14.000Well, this is kind of going back to the first topic of conversation with Budweiser.
01:22:19.000If there was some stuff going on, and now this is public, for PR, but I also think just from a moral standpoint, if Crowder just did a video going, hey, I'm sorry you all have had to see my personal life and what happened.
01:22:53.000That's what they want Budweiser to do.
01:22:55.000Here's what I'm going to choose to believe.
01:22:58.000I'm going to, I'm going to, I mean, this is a joke, by the way, that after Crowder came after the Daily Wire, Jeremy Borington's down and he's like, And then he's like, pull out all the stops.
01:24:04.000He does yell and he says some crazy stuff I would not hear.
01:24:08.00015 minutes ago there was a 38 Chinese warplanes and six vessels of the People's Liberation Army Navy detected around Taiwan, Taiwanese Defense Ministry says.
01:24:17.000But what does that have to do with Crowder getting divorced?
01:25:28.000It's that if there's pros and there's cons.
01:25:31.000If Joe Biden reacted decisively and took action, people might cheer for it, but if he screws up, he's done for and it'll put someone else in power.
01:25:38.000So it ties their hands behind their back.
01:26:29.000And I just think it's funny that you've got these Vice News staffers that are like, to the original crew that helped launch Vice News, we changed the game, blah blah blah.
01:26:46.000So for those that don't know, I was the first person hired at Vice to start Vice News.
01:26:51.000There was no Vice News, they hired me, and then like six months later they were like, should we create a news division, like a brand for this?
01:28:31.000The first show they had was called Vice and it was amazing.
01:28:35.000The first show, just Vice was so good.
01:28:38.000Man, Vice back in the day, for people who know it, it was basically four dudes, it was Saroosh, it was Shane, it was, who was the other guy?
01:28:56.000And then the show was basically like weird travel stuff.
01:29:00.000It was traveling on the world to crazy places and exploring.
01:29:03.000And then, I guess what happened was HBO wanted to cancel it, and so they announced abruptly, before HBO re-upped it, that they were already being renewed for a new season, which forced HBO's hand, but then HBO came back.
01:29:17.000I don't know if this is true, this is what I heard when I worked there.
01:29:40.000But I was like, but I'm actually mixed race.
01:29:42.000And they're like, yeah, but you know, you're a guy who looks too white.
01:29:46.000And so they were like, and you can notice this too, when you look at the advice on HBO staff, they bring in like an Indian guy, some women, they brought in a bunch of women.
01:29:54.000And so when I had joined them, I said, I want to be an on-air host and I will bring my brand and the work that I do.
01:30:30.000I mean, I was told the same thing by Fusion when I worked there, the ABC News company, when they did, they had the Black and Brown Forum, and they brought in, they had like three of their senior talent, staff talent, and then one external guy, and this was like Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders were being questioned by a panel of journalists, and so they just said nothing to me, and So I go to the president and I was like, is there a reason you guys had the other main talent and not me, your, like, senior reporter?
01:31:00.000And the guy goes, oh, it's because it's racist.
01:32:19.000If only your genetics had performed slightly differently and you looked slightly more Asian.
01:32:23.000That's like the most, like, it's so disgusting to hear people talk like that, but like, it sounds... It sounds like it would have helped you in this case anyway, though.
01:32:30.000In this case, being more Asian wouldn't have helped.
01:33:37.000Did you see that they just had the state dinner with South Korea, and we invited all of our South Korean-adjacent influencers, like Maddox Pidgeolli.
01:33:48.000He went with his mom, Angelina, and Joanna Gaines was there.
01:33:51.000It made me very uncomfortable, but maybe people liked it.
01:34:38.000I guess maybe they wouldn't invite me to something like that because it would be offensive to the Korean people because the older generation are very racial supremacist.
01:35:08.000And they'd just be like, you know, they'd be like, oh, you're Mexican.
01:35:10.000So you have the best of all three worlds, is what you're saying.
01:35:12.000I guess, unless you're surrounded by woke people who just don't want to be dealing with what you are, because in their world, if they can't define you by race, they can't define you at all.
01:35:21.000They're going to be horribly racist anyway.
01:35:55.000So with, uh, government, government contracting, that is a thing.
01:35:58.000Like when there's a bid out there for, uh, you know, purchasing a thing, it's like if they're a female owned business, if they're veteran owned, If they're disabled and if they, I believe, race is another one.
01:36:09.000So there are companies that literally will pick a CEO who can stack as many of these things as possible to be the tiebreaker for contracts.

01:37:00.000We love taking your calls, and we do that Uncensored Show at about 10, 10 p.m.
01:37:04.000Monday through Thursday, so we'll have one up for you tonight.
01:37:26.000Sideways2013 said, So earlier, my default Democrat mom, who voted Biden, came to me and was pissed about Biden putting forward higher mortgage fees for people with good credit to cover for bad credit.
01:38:22.000So, no, I wanted to shoot a rifle to 5,000 rounds, and it's a .308 rifle, so, like, it punches a little bit, but on a range day, I can efficiently only shoot maybe 1,000 rounds, and so it's five film days plus stuff in the middle, so, I mean, we're talking three weeks to finish one video, when a lot of content creators will do a video in a day, and I'm like, I'm gonna keep going out there, so, you know, it's at least four videos or one.
01:38:56.000My production is that I read the news and then I complain about it, you know what I mean?
01:39:01.000Yeah, but what happens, you know, before the show, it's like, ah, what's there to talk about?
01:39:04.000Right, the pre-production hour where it's like... So the reason this show works, for those that know, is because of my morning show.
01:39:10.000During the morning show, I read 8,000 articles.
01:39:13.000Then when we come upstairs an hour before this show, I'm like, here's the news, everybody, like, here's everything I saw today, what do you guys think?
01:39:18.000And then we pick what we think is the big story.
01:41:01.000So it's like 20 grand I've given out in the past week.
01:41:03.000So the problem with not ever saying where it's going No, this is just one time right now, I'm saying.
01:41:08.000In the future, the idea is like, we'll hit someone up and be like, hey, we want to shout you out on the show and we want to give you some money for this.
01:41:13.000But these two, one's not really a, it's not fair to say I gave out 20.
01:41:17.000I gave out, I gave 10 grand to a person doing very important work.
01:41:21.000And then I gave money to someone who's doing some other fighting that's not super cultural or whatever.
01:41:26.000But, uh, it's not necessarily where we're trying to go with it, so I don't think I want to shout out... If it's not a consistent thing, then I... But the idea is, like, once a month, maybe at the end of the month, we will say, this is the person we've chosen.
01:41:36.000So the issue is, it's going to be in the Discord, where we're trying... There's a lot of challenges to this.
01:41:41.000If it's in the Discord, meaning you have to be a member, now all of a sudden there's some kind of, like, sweepstakes thing to it, so then do we have to invest in the project?
01:41:49.000So, we're trying to figure out, and the idea was, if you're in the Discord, we have people basically vote on it.
01:41:54.000Members of TimCast.com can be like, hey, we think this project should be shouted out on the show, and we want to do that every Friday.
01:41:59.000We were going to shout out Salty Draws, one of our members, last Friday, but he asked us to wait until he was ready and we could actually review the book, so then we waited.
01:42:08.000But that's the other thing we're planning on doing.
01:42:10.000Fridays, we will do a sponsor spot for our members.
01:42:14.000So, people who are members at TimCast.com, Are sponsoring the show!
01:42:19.000So it's like, why read out some corporate ad when we can just shout you guys out and help your projects?
01:42:23.000That was a brilliant idea coming from one of our members.
01:42:26.000So yeah, Tim Cass grants is preliminary.
01:42:31.000And I might just give a bunch of money away like crazy.
01:42:49.000So when people can help do some of that, Pretty awesome.
01:42:53.000Maybe we can do like a Mr. Beast style thing, you know, like giving money to people in fun ways to make more money and then give more money away.
01:43:01.000But yeah, the general idea is to give money to people so that they can produce cultural work so that if we give a hundred people money and one of them writes, you know, a masterpiece, then we're expanding our cultural influence.
01:43:16.000So I did just give out a bunch of money to someone I thought deserved it.
01:43:19.000I'm not going to shout them out unless they explicitly tell me they're cool with me doing it, so I'm not going to, but they're someone that everyone knows who's doing very important work.
01:45:23.000I can make a balloon where you actually blow it up and it... And then you can write, like, a little message on the inside of those and, like, look through them.
01:45:29.000Can you make the fortune teller thing?
01:46:54.000Because The answer is mentally ill people within a certain confine of, like, a certain category of mentally ill shouldn't vote.
01:47:03.000But how we define mental illness can vary in which someone has a mental illness that doesn't impair their judgment on policy issues, it just makes them, like, anxious.
01:47:12.000And we call that a mental illness or something, you know what I mean?
01:47:15.000Or... Do they consider ADHD a mental illness?
01:47:21.000I think it's like on the learning disability spectrum.
01:47:23.000I just think that if you took away, if anybody who was mentally ill wasn't allowed to vote, as much as I'm not saying I'm in favor of that process, I do think society would be functioning to a much, much, much, much, much better degree.
01:47:36.000But my question would be, so a question that's always thrown out about, you know, everyone should have guns, everyone should have the right to own guns.
01:47:42.000People go, what about someone with Down syndrome?
01:48:05.000And people that are like, oh, you know, if you're a Second Amendment absolutist, do you think people should be allowed to own nuclear weapons?
01:49:17.000Government or their large... The point is, the infrastructure required to produce or procure or to sustain a nuclear weapon means that you... Elon could do it.
01:49:28.000He's already launching rockets and stuff.
01:49:31.000But again, this comes to the point where you're talking about a handful of people and states, so practically nuclear weapons as a means of self-defense is not an actual topic.
01:49:44.000And that's where I feel like a lot of these arguments on like, oh, can mentally unwell people or people with Down syndrome want guns?
01:49:49.000I'm like, Let's go find some facts that this is actually happening, that it's an actual realistic scenario, a realistic what-if, and let's not base a bunch of laws on a thing that doesn't even happen.
01:50:01.000I would wonder, too, if the pushback against, like, if you said mentally ill people can't vote, like, if people would say, well, you're discouraging people from seeking counseling and potentially being diagnosed because they think you'll take this away from them and therefore that's more dangerous.
01:50:14.000I mean, I don't think anyone should vote, but that's just me.
01:50:17.000So how do you, uh, I don't know, but I mean, sure.
01:50:46.000Whenever you have any kind of government or whatever like that, there are hierarchies and stuff like that and corruption and stuff like that.
01:50:55.000And so if I'm going to have my own dream world, it's going to be the But in your dream world, doesn't that hierarchy form anyway?
01:51:01.000Like, hierarchies form no matter what.
01:51:38.000So you may not know this, but the reason why I can make this paper crane is because being part Korean and Japanese, it is just cellular memory.
01:51:49.000And when I was a child, I could just do it.
01:51:51.000But you'll also notice it's pretty crappy.
01:51:53.000And that's because I'm only 5% Japanese, so it's only 5% effective in my origami making.
01:51:58.000Am I appropriating your culture right now?
01:52:04.000I'm not even taking that as a racial insult, although I guess we're starting at some point.
01:52:07.000It's because of how white you are, too.
01:52:08.000The gingerness makes you, like, the extreme white.
01:52:11.000I think the rules of wokeness are I'm allowed to say that, because you're appropriating my culture.
01:52:15.000But to be fair, someone told me this is something I should be doing.
01:52:19.000No, let's be real, like, there's probably some, you know, middle-aged white dude who makes the best origami ever, and he, like, builds castles and stuff like that.
01:52:27.000All right, we'll read some more Super Chats.
01:52:32.000T-Rex Pet Shop says, since Ian bailed, I guess I'll have to tell you guys that you forced my hand in telling you the special deal we're doing.
01:52:38.000You get a free dog or cat toy when you get $50 or more cat food, dog food, or cat litter.
01:54:10.000William H says, I've truly enjoyed Stephen's content over the years, but I just can't come back from what I heard coming from his mouth directed at his pregnant wife.
01:54:16.000Godspeed Crowder, I hope you learn from this.
01:54:19.000Hopefully he wouldn't have said it, even if she wasn't pregnant.
01:54:22.000And so that was basically, I was seeing a bunch of comments from people, and I'm like, alright, I'll pull the story out, you know, we'll talk about it.
01:54:27.000But now you can say you did, you don't have to do it tomorrow.
01:54:29.000Yeah I mean we probably will because the story is going to get crazier.
01:54:32.000Crowder's probably going to address it.
01:54:34.000I do think there is a merit to talking about chaotic relationships and being accountable for the way you speak and address people.
01:54:41.000I think especially in like I don't want to stereotype too much but like conservative male circles like it's not a conversation that's easy to have but it's important that people are aware of their behavior.
01:54:50.000And unfortunately I didn't like I wouldn't want it to be this venue but Well, and it would have never come up if it had never been public, and so it wouldn't have been talked about anyway.
01:54:57.000So it's like, it was kind of made public, and then it has to be talked about.
01:55:01.000Curtis Terry says, Phil, big fan of your cover of Thunder Rolls, but was kind of disappointed you didn't cover the third verse.
01:55:07.000The third verse is not in the official release, so we didn't do that.
01:55:11.000We do that live, like if we do, like we'll do it acoustic, we'll do the third verse if we play it live, but on the record, we decided to do the record release that Garth actually did, so that's why.
02:00:52.000But, um, maintaining stock, it's not like
02:00:56.000let me just tell you guys, and most of you probably know this, but some of you may not realize,
02:01:00.000we watch the orders, the product leaves There's actual, it's not like they make it, we have to make it per order, so we will make a small batch, sell a bunch, and then we have to constantly have this flow of ordering a bunch more, not ordering too much, not making too much.
02:01:19.000It's gonna be fresh for everybody when they get it.
02:01:29.000Yeah, so it's like right now we are beginning to produce the next batch because we have been selling like hotcakes.
02:01:37.000So everybody smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends.
02:01:40.000Head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, hang out in our Discord server, members only of course with like-minded individuals, and you can even call into the show and submit questions.
02:01:50.000And that show will be live in about nine minutes on the front page of TimCast.com.
