00:00:18.160 All right, you guys, happy Monday.
00:00:19.940 Obviously, the Super Bowl was last night.
00:00:22.380 Unsurprisingly, Taylor Swift did not attend with Blake Lively, but she did get booed.
00:00:27.280 And that was a surprise.
00:00:28.180 That has got to signify a new era for her.
00:00:31.120 I totally blame Ryan Reynolds.
00:00:32.420 I'm going to tell you why.
00:00:33.700 Also, speaking of the Deadpool devil, you are not going to believe this,
00:00:37.480 but his feelings surrounding the creation of the Mr. Nice Pool character,
00:00:42.460 a.k.a. Justin Baldoni, were captured and recorded in a book.
00:00:46.160 He spoke about why he created this character.
00:00:48.160 And it's extremely dark.
00:00:49.740 It is truly dark to read this.
00:00:52.360 You're not going to believe it.
00:00:53.740 Also, Tucker Carlson said something that absolutely should not have offended anyone.
00:00:58.180 But it did.
00:00:59.560 So we're going to talk about that.
00:01:00.540 And I have an amazing update for those of you who are hanging on for my Australia tour.
00:01:05.480 All that coming up on Candace.
00:01:07.060 All right.
00:01:22.060 So leading up to the Super Bowl, my producer had this idea that Taylor Swift might attend with Blake Lively.
00:01:27.480 He was like, that's going to be when we can really see.
00:01:29.460 And I was like, there's a 0% chance.
00:01:32.780 There's not even a negative 1% chance that Taylor Swift is showing up with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
00:01:38.320 That is just put it out of your mind because she has proven time and time again,
00:01:42.700 no matter what you think about her, whether you love her, whether you hate her,
00:01:45.840 she cares deeply about what the public thinks.
00:01:47.880 That is just a fact.
00:01:48.740 Whether you whether you think that's a good thing that we can kind of manipulate who she's friends with.
00:01:53.160 There have been plenty of examples of that.
00:01:55.900 Right.
00:01:56.160 First and foremost, Matt Healy.
00:01:57.920 Everyone forgot about Matt Healy.
00:01:59.000 She was like really deep into that for a couple of weeks or a month or whatever until her fans said no. 0.77
00:02:04.200 And she cared so much about that.
00:02:05.600 It was it was he was caught on a podcast saying something about Ice Spice that she then became friends with Ice Spice because she was like, 0.50
00:02:12.180 I cannot have this.
00:02:13.040 And she left Matt Healy.
00:02:14.520 Then, of course, notoriously, the Kanye West debacle over the lyric.
00:02:19.020 They were, quote unquote, best friends.
00:02:21.500 They had a phone call discussing the lyric.
00:02:23.780 The public heard the lyric, freaked out, didn't like the lyric.
00:02:27.100 Taylor Swift suddenly was like not OK with any part.
00:02:30.420 Or she didn't mention the phone call, but we know it wasn't good for her brand anymore.
00:02:33.900 And she moved on.
00:02:34.600 And now we have Blake Lively and they've been friends for 10 years.
00:02:38.460 And I am telling you, I knew leading up to the Super Bowl, godmother or not a godmother.
00:02:44.300 She will throw the godbabies out with the bathwater. 1.00
00:02:46.620 That's just a fact.
00:02:47.380 OK, now I thought she was going to attend with Kansas City Wags,
00:02:52.100 the wives and the girlfriends and maybe Jason Kelsey's wife. 0.91
00:02:58.020 But she didn't do that. 1.00
00:02:58.860 She wound up attending again with Ice Spice, who she went to the Super Bowl with last year.
00:03:03.520 The Haim or Haim sisters, I still have no idea who they are, but she hangs out with them a lot. 0.99
00:03:08.320 I'm aging out.
00:03:09.220 I don't need to know who everybody is in culture.
00:03:10.840 I just know that she is friends with them.
00:03:13.380 And that was that was her entry into the arena.
00:03:15.820 But the big news that no one expected was that she got booed.
00:03:19.020 Taylor Swift got booed.
00:03:20.580 I don't think I have ever seen a clip anywhere ever since the dawn of her career of her getting booed. 1.00
00:03:27.220 So let's watch that.
00:03:41.980 OK, first off, shout out to Ice Spice. 0.98
00:03:44.100 I like this look on her a lot better than the look that she had last year.
00:03:46.960 She looks a lot better.
00:03:47.960 Never want to be a hater.
00:03:48.780 Secondly, you can see she's quite startled by this.
00:03:51.300 A lot of people enjoyed it.
00:03:53.200 I think no matter what, getting booed in a stadium, it just doesn't feel good.
00:03:57.920 You know, a little piece of me does feel very bad because it's super embarrassing.
00:04:01.820 Like I said, no matter how famous or how rich you are or how how secure you are, getting booed like that in a stadium is it's embarrassing.
00:04:10.880 It just is.
00:04:11.500 And I think it's leading to a lot of questions rather than people debating or being like I'm pro Taylor or anti Taylor.
00:04:16.960 It's a cultural moment that should be discussed, which is why.
00:04:20.100 Why was Taylor Swift booed?
00:04:21.140 She's coming off of her era's tour.
00:04:22.880 She's what she is arguably one of the top five most famous people in the world. 1.00
00:04:28.780 And some people rushed and said, oh, that's just the nature of football.
00:04:32.120 No, let's not take that excuse.
00:04:33.540 It's not because it's football.
00:04:34.820 OK, she was at the Super Bowl last year.
00:04:37.420 She was in the middle of her era's tour when she was at the Super Bowl last year.
00:04:40.400 And she did not get booed.
00:04:41.920 She also has been on the sidelines following the Kansas City Chiefs around.
00:04:47.480 And obviously, the NFL has spotlighted her all throughout the season.
00:04:51.800 And she has not been booed.
00:04:53.920 Some people say, well, it's because of politics.
00:04:55.580 Well, that doesn't make sense either because Donald Trump was there.
00:04:58.300 OK, and he received a roerous applause, despite the fact that people have strong feelings against
00:05:05.100 him.
00:05:05.380 And, you know, of course, everywhere he goes, there's going to be a chance that some people
00:05:09.200 don't like him.
00:05:11.140 And so I don't accept any of those excuses.
00:05:14.020 And I think something else is happening.
00:05:15.680 And I think what could be happening is that the world is starting to register some Taylor
00:05:20.220 Swift fatigue.
00:05:22.140 OK, and part of this absolutely is because of what is going on with Justin Baldoni and
00:05:29.200 her.
00:05:30.060 She's been in the press a lot regarding this unbelievable circumstance of bullying.
00:05:34.280 And even though we can't say that Taylor Swift is guilty, right, and she's doing everything
00:05:40.760 to basically signal to the media, I will never speak to Blake Lively again.
00:05:44.920 And please do not drag me into this lawsuit.
00:05:47.740 I do think that what's happening is there's something that's starting to emerge about
00:05:51.140 Taylor Swift.
00:05:52.020 And I would call it almost the brand versus the person.
00:05:55.040 And I'm super keen to hear the Swifties on this, because even like I said, the Swifties
00:05:59.720 really want to get to the bottom of the Justin Baldoni case and understand what was Taylor Swift's
00:06:05.020 involvement.
00:06:05.500 They're not hotheaded right now.
00:06:06.760 They're not like, well, you know, Blake just used her.
00:06:09.500 In fact, people aren't liking the excuse that Taylor Swift is once again saying that
00:06:14.720 she's been used.
00:06:15.820 Right.
00:06:16.380 I think people are asking questions like how much of the brand of Taylor Swift, this nice
00:06:22.320 girl who helps out people, is real. 0.94
00:06:24.280 Another obvious question is, why was she so close with Blake Lively and Ryan?
00:06:28.700 Because whether we know how much she contributed to this case or whether we we get answers to
00:06:33.380 how much she contributed to this, we can all ask a realistic question, which is, OK, why
00:06:39.100 were you friends with these monsters? 0.95
00:06:40.700 And we all agree that Ryan Reynolds is a monster. 0.83
00:06:42.660 And you're going to think even worse of him when I show you this, something that he wrote 0.50
00:06:46.020 or he was recorded as saying rather in this book about Justin Baldoni.
00:06:49.700 Nice pool.
00:06:50.980 But you are the company you keep.
00:06:53.220 OK, you you are aware of Blake Lively's personality.
00:06:56.600 You were aware of Ryan Reynolds' personality.
00:06:58.440 There's a reason why the first time Ryan Reynolds even texts with Justin Baldoni, he drops your
00:07:03.900 name.
00:07:04.620 You've been all around speaking about how close you are with them, how much you love
00:07:08.020 them, how much you adore them.
00:07:09.180 You said yes when they asked you to be the godmother.
00:07:11.120 I can't accept that you didn't know this is how they behaved.
00:07:14.980 I won't accept that.
00:07:15.980 I think that's an element of this.
00:07:17.200 And then it leads you down, I think, a path where you go, OK, well, has every ex really
00:07:22.900 been so terrible with Taylor Swift?
00:07:24.640 Was Calvin Harris lying when he said that she operates behind the scenes?
00:07:28.720 I'm summarizing.
00:07:29.520 But he was basically like, I know your moves.
00:07:31.480 You use the media to go after people.
00:07:33.360 Remember that moment where Icarus almost flew too close to the sun with Taylor Swift
00:07:37.780 and Calvin Harris said some stuff.
00:07:39.740 But at that moment, the world wasn't ready to hear that.
00:07:42.080 And he got attacked for saying that.
00:07:43.660 Like, oh, my gosh, how could he do this?
00:07:45.340 And he was basically saying she's playing a media game.
00:07:47.960 Are people starting to go back and revisit that?
00:07:50.140 Is she really always just being used and being treated terribly?
00:07:54.080 Or should we accept some of the lyrics in her songs when she tells us that she's the author
00:07:58.620 of a lot of that, that she controls things behind the scenes?
00:08:01.280 Is that just being art?
00:08:02.140 Is she just using art and being imagining herself as that person?
00:08:06.560 Or is Taylor Swift a media empire that is able to get out a narrative regarding various topics?
00:08:14.780 And those narratives are sometimes not always in line with the truth.
00:08:17.920 Are people getting Taylor Swift fatigue, I would say, is the question.
00:08:23.180 Okay.
00:08:24.300 And my producer getting into this, the presentation of her versus the reality of who she might be.
00:08:30.720 My producer pointed out something that is incredibly interesting that we should have picked up on
00:08:34.020 and discussed before, okay?
00:08:35.680 Back in 2016, notoriously, Kesha accused Dr. Luke of sexual abuse. 0.99
00:08:41.920 And there was this image of her, which was plastered everywhere.
00:08:44.780 It was just like at the beginning of the Me Too movement, of her in the back of a courtroom crying
00:08:47.940 when a judge decided that she was not able to simply, you know, leave her case, leave her contract with Sony.
00:08:56.180 And he, I think Dr. Luke owned six albums.
00:08:58.200 She hadn't delivered them.
00:08:59.080 And she was crying.
00:09:00.300 And just that picture, without people really knowing the facts of the case, got people to react.
00:09:04.860 And suddenly all of these celebrities started donating to her legal fees.
00:09:07.980 And one of those celebrities, by the way, was Taylor Swift.
00:09:10.920 She instantly jumped in in 2016 and donated $250,000.
00:09:16.440 And she had her team make a public statement.
00:09:20.320 A representative for her said, quote,
00:09:22.500 In a show of support, Taylor Swift has donated a quarter of a million dollars to Kesha
00:09:26.240 to help with any of her financial needs during this trying time.
00:09:30.140 Okay?
00:09:30.980 Okay?
00:09:31.640 Fine.
00:09:32.960 And I want to also be clear, it's not the first time that she did that.
00:09:36.200 Way back in 2013, and I, by the way, to this day will say I believe this happened to Taylor Swift.
00:09:41.460 Like, she was telling the truth 100%. 0.96
00:09:43.140 Remember you had that weird, creepy radio guy who, like, grabbed her butt? 0.98
00:09:46.680 And you can see it here. 0.51
00:09:48.180 And there's just no way she took this guy to court for four years because it didn't happen.
00:09:51.740 Like, she took a stance and was like, this is unacceptable.
00:09:55.000 Kept him in court for four years.
00:09:56.700 In 2017, she wins the court case for $1 because she just wanted to send a message about how what he did was not okay.
00:10:03.060 Very good.
00:10:04.160 And then she decided to donate, on top of that in 2017, to assault victims.
00:10:10.080 Right?
00:10:10.780 Here is the headline in Reuters.
00:10:11.900 Taylor Swift donates to assault victims group after groping wins.
00:10:17.040 Okay.
00:10:17.780 So, very happy to hear that.
00:10:20.020 Then that instantly just makes us go, okay, well, wait a second.
00:10:23.680 If all of that is how she reacts to sexual assault, do you mean to tell me that she then has a best friend of 10 years?
00:10:36.340 Okay?
00:10:37.060 10 years her and Blake Lively have been friends.
00:10:40.580 And her best friend has selected Taylor Swift to be the godmother of her children.
00:10:48.300 Okay?
00:10:48.760 They're all over the place together.
00:10:50.000 They're being photographed.
00:10:51.160 They're sharing each other's secrets.
00:10:52.800 They're telling each other everything.
00:10:54.340 They're basically branding each other together, going through relationships, a decade of friendships.
00:11:01.600 Her and Ryan Reynolds, I think she said like Ryan Reynolds was like a brother to her or whatever it was that we covered when she was promoting Deadpool for him.
00:11:07.940 And now we have December of 2024 and her best friend comes out and says, it happened to me too.
00:11:17.160 You know, I was sexually harassed by Justin Baldoni.
00:11:21.340 It's terrible.
00:11:21.600 Well, you're going to tell me these girls were not speaking about this all year, knowing what we know now, knowing that Blake has come out and said Taylor was with her every step of the way.
00:11:31.100 She was with you every step of the way in the making of this movie, which means that you were speaking to her throughout this movie, talking to her about this horrific incident that happened to you.
00:11:39.880 You're so close.
00:11:41.540 And yet you drop this lawsuit and Taylor Swift elects to remain silent.
00:11:49.580 You guys buying that?
00:11:51.600 Are you guys buying that Taylor Swift would choose to remain silent if she thought or knew that the allegations that were being made against Justin Baldoni are true?
00:12:03.780 No, you're not buying that.
00:12:05.300 I'm not buying that.
00:12:06.280 And here's what I want to say to you about that, because what it signals to me is that Brian Friedman needs to get this girl on the stand yesterday.
00:12:13.760 I am telling you he needs to depose Taylor Swift because she knows something. 0.97
00:12:16.860 What it signals to me is that she maybe knew that Blake and Ryan were orchestrating a plan in order to take over this movie.
00:12:26.500 OK, I like I said, everything about what happened as I was reading through this lawsuit just reminded me of Taylor Swift in terms of the Deadpool stuff, like dropping an album, dropping all of these Easter eggs, saying all these things on Instagram.
00:12:39.140 It felt to me like a Taylor Swift album.
00:12:41.820 Then we found out that she was close, like she was involved in all this stuff.
00:12:44.880 And I'm just going, what's going on?
00:12:46.120 And it is actually the loudest silence in all of this is that Taylor Swift did not make a statement when that was filed.
00:12:52.980 And she for sure would have known, given the nature of their relationship, that it was going to be filed.
00:12:57.880 So what gives?
00:12:59.620 What gives?
00:13:00.140 Ironically, in the Dr. Luke situation, he may have been a guy before his time, but his defense was this sexual abuse did not happen.
00:13:08.300 Rather, Kesha is making these allegations because she wants to change her contract. 1.00
00:13:14.120 I'm saying that's just a little bit of irony here.
00:13:15.900 OK, anyways, moving on from that.
00:13:19.200 Ryan Reynolds, if you have not seen him, he's been spotted out in public a few times in New York, also at an event.
00:13:24.160 He now looks exceedingly thin.
00:13:25.920 He has lost a lot of weight, showing that he is stressed.
00:13:28.000 Again, I do not wish bad for him and Blake.
00:13:30.720 I don't wish bad on anybody.
00:13:31.760 I just want, I'm almost like asympathetic.
00:13:34.160 I feel nothing for them.
00:13:35.160 I have no sympathy for them.
00:13:36.520 And I just want them to get what they have coming to them, which is for people to recognize who these people are.
00:13:42.020 OK, and so in an amazingly psychotic find, someone that I used to work with texted me this weekend and she would, we just like kind of get deep in the trenches together on like research stuff the whole time.
00:13:53.000 We're just going to get obsessive about things.
00:13:54.060 And she randomly texted me and she informs me that Ryan, Ryan Reynolds actually has a book that is published.
00:14:00.680 It's not, he didn't write the book, but essentially, and this is some comic con stuff, guys, like literally like if you're deep into Marvel Universe or DC Universe, you may know about these things.
00:14:10.320 I definitely not know about these things, but they create these books essentially about all of the movies.
00:14:15.880 And they're sort of these art books.
00:14:18.360 This one's called Marvel Studios, Deadpool and Wolverine, the art of the movie.
00:14:22.500 I know there's going to be someone watching this that's like very into the comic universe stuff.
00:14:25.660 And they're going to be like, Candice, you're describing this wrong.
00:14:27.380 I'm doing my best.
00:14:28.340 OK, essentially what that is, it's a it's a gallery of never before seen artwork, which is the description, and exclusive lithographs and in-depth interviews with the creative team.
00:14:39.020 So these are created by going to the team, speaking to the characters and asking them, people that have made this movie, essentially the original artwork, lithograph, whatever, and then saying, like, tell me how and why you created this character.
00:14:51.140 And so they sit down with these characters and the people that created them and they ask them questions.
00:14:56.680 And I am scared.
00:14:58.000 I am so scared.
00:14:59.000 So I'm going to read you directly what Ryan had to say when they sat down with him to discuss Nice Pool.
00:15:05.600 OK, I'm going to show you this and then I'll give you the exact quotation.
00:15:09.180 You can pull this up.
00:15:10.040 This is from the book.
00:15:10.780 I ordered it.
00:15:12.020 This cost me $80.
00:15:13.340 I spent $80 on this that you don't have to.
00:15:15.720 It doesn't arrive until tonight, but I was able she was able to.
00:15:19.140 She found it actually on like a super niche YouTube page of somebody who just goes through these like Marvel art books or whatever.
00:15:26.960 And she was able to screen grab it.
00:15:28.740 And then I ordered it, but doesn't arrive until 10 p.m. tonight. 0.99
00:15:31.380 Darn you, Amazon. 0.99
00:15:32.200 I needed it for the show by today, but it's OK. 0.99
00:15:34.040 Anyways, it says in one respect, Nice Pool is everything Deadpool wishes he was.
00:15:41.700 Reynolds says, you know, easy, breezy, gorgeous hair, normal face, gold plated .50 caliber Desert Eagle pistols and this beautiful suit.
00:15:51.980 But the thing that Deadpool is most covetous of is, of course, Dog Pool.
00:15:57.260 OK, just pausing there.
00:15:58.240 OK, so he is saying, if you know that we understand what this character was created for, is that as Ryan Reynolds, actually, I like who I want to be is Justin Baldoni.
00:16:09.220 Right.
00:16:09.660 He's got this presentation.
00:16:11.420 He's easy.
00:16:12.260 He's breezy.
00:16:13.340 We have him in this beautiful suit.
00:16:14.660 But the one thing that Deadpool is the most coveted of is, of course, Dog Pool.
00:16:18.720 We know that Dog Pool is Blake Lively.
00:16:22.140 OK, like this is so creepy, so creepy.
00:16:25.760 It goes on.
00:16:26.980 So Nice Pool initially just existed to serve the purpose of introducing Dog Pool, but then it evolved and it grew.
00:16:33.280 The idea appealed of creating this character based on guys you find in the zeitgeist right now who are faux-nice.
00:16:42.060 They may present as very progressive and enlightened.
00:16:45.760 Nice Pool himself identifies as a feminist, but the truth is very different.
00:16:50.780 They're talking about themselves as these incredible allies.
00:16:53.700 But underneath that, there's something a little false and probably awful, Reynolds says. 0.98
00:16:58.120 I liked that this guy was kind of paving over all of this shit-headery, pardon my language, with his esoteric, hot yoga, chakra-balancing nonsense and his little topknot and all that stuff. 0.98
00:17:13.280 So we plant this seed early and he's a little fake spiritual, but he also may be the kind of piece of S-H-I-T. 0.99
00:17:21.740 It just allows us to not feel too bad about taking his life brutally.
00:17:29.040 End quote.
00:17:30.980 I'm like, what is going on? 0.99
00:17:36.180 We created this character so that I could kill him. 0.88
00:17:40.060 We created this character and we were planning the seeds early that you shouldn't like this character so that at the end we could overkill him.
00:17:46.300 And we showed you, like, I think I showed you on my, actually on my Instagram, we couldn't show you, like, how many times he shot and killed an ice pool.
00:17:51.920 And it's funny because my editor said to me, when I watched the movie, it was weird because an ice pool seemed nice.
00:17:56.440 And then there was this scene of him just killing him.
00:17:58.380 And there's no way to look at this other than to recognize that Ryan was living out his fantasy of killing Justin Baldoni via the movie Deadpool.
00:18:07.320 And there is, like, no way to normalize that or to excuse that.
00:18:10.300 He was living out a fantasy of killing Justin Baldoni.
00:18:14.620 Like, that's the reality, okay?
00:18:16.700 He wrote about this down to, like, his hair.
00:18:19.220 Somehow Justin Baldoni was driving him insane.
00:18:21.720 He talks about everything Justin Baldoni speaks about on his Instagram.
00:18:25.740 I told you when I crawled through it.
00:18:26.900 I mean, there's just no question that this character that he created late in the day, which we went through the timeline.
00:18:31.960 He added, like, tacked this, all of these scenes on late in the day when principal filming, the photography partying was already over.
00:18:39.960 And then he's like, let's get back, get the gang back together so I can fantasize about murdering Justin Baldoni.
00:18:47.080 Very, very strange.
00:18:48.220 Makes me uncomfortable.
00:18:49.560 Kind of reminds me of, like, for people that were watching Deadpool, it's kind of like when I was 13 and you're listening to Eminem.
00:18:56.120 And you're like, yeah, Slim Shady, it's amazing. 0.71
00:18:58.780 He's going to kill Kim. 1.00
00:18:59.820 He's going to kill Kim. 1.00
00:19:00.660 He's going to kill Kim. 0.97
00:19:01.660 And then you get older and you're like, is Kim okay?
00:19:05.040 Like, can somebody check on Kim? 0.98
00:19:07.760 He's bringing out blowout dolls and fantasizing about killing his ex. 0.97
00:19:11.200 Like, I don't know. 0.54
00:19:11.660 Maybe that makes you bop your head when you're 13.
00:19:15.160 But when you get older, you're like, I don't think Slim Shady's got it all going on up there, upstairs.
00:19:19.240 This is not okay.
00:19:19.940 We can't just call it artwork while we fantasize about murdering people.
00:19:23.360 And I'm very uncomfortable by it.
00:19:25.120 By the way, not to make you even angrier, but obviously with the whole hair and making nice people have long hair, that's been, like, a major feature.
00:19:33.360 And that's why he brings it up in this book.
00:19:34.780 And I'm getting the book because there could be more gems in there.
00:19:36.720 So I just, that's just the first thing that we have.
00:19:38.940 I want to go through dog pool.
00:19:40.120 I want to go through everything.
00:19:41.740 But you should know that Justin Baldoni's, like, phase of having really long hair, which deeply upsets Ryan on some sort of a spiritual level, was not something that he grew out in an effort to reinforce a stereotype.
00:19:52.040 Like, yes, my cousin does like a little bit of kombucha.
00:19:55.240 I actually don't know if he does.
00:19:56.200 I feel like he does.
00:19:57.160 And I do think that he is a stereotype in many of those ways.
00:19:59.700 But his hair, he actually grew out to donate to children with cancer.
00:20:04.200 He documented that.
00:20:05.260 He was growing it out because he wanted children with cancer.
00:20:08.140 He had to get it to a certain length if you do that.
00:20:10.040 And then he chopped it off in April of 2023, right before they began, or the same month they began principal photography on It Ends With Us.
00:20:18.560 And his hair had obviously gotten long enough.
00:20:20.740 So here is a video of him explaining to his kids that this is going to children who have cancer, just in case you needed more of an excuse to really strongly dislike Ryan Reynolds.
00:20:29.060 So the reason you're cutting it like that, babe, is because Daddy's going to donate his hair to somebody who can't grow their hair.
00:20:37.600 Because maybe they got cancer, kind of like a plus app, or they lost their hair.
00:20:41.620 So he's going to give all this hair to somebody.
00:20:44.160 That's why you've got to cut it perfectly, right there.
00:20:46.240 You ready?
00:20:47.640 Okay.
00:20:48.560 Here we go.
00:20:49.860 One, two.
00:20:53.720 Yes!
00:20:54.120 So there you have it.
00:21:10.340 So I have this theory because what Ryan does is so by the book, narcissistic abuse.
00:21:17.520 It's not that it's unusual for Deadpool to have a nice pool.
00:21:22.180 The character existed.
00:21:23.140 He then turned the nice pool character into Justin Baldoni and turned it into basically however he felt his insecurities about dog pool being Blake Lively.
00:21:32.960 That was made very clear once we were able to kind of go through his text messages and get a sense of the situation, right?
00:21:37.220 And I've realized that his issue is control.
00:21:40.220 We've talked about this.
00:21:41.260 And the one thing that will really drive somebody who exhibits this sort of behavior crazy is feeling like control has been removed from you.
00:21:49.100 And so I had said to you guys last week that there's an element of this that I'm convinced has to do with Scarlett Johansson, right?
00:21:56.220 Call me crazy, but I've got to run this by you, okay?
00:21:58.380 I believe that to Ryan Reynolds, she is the one that got away.
00:22:01.480 I am sorry.
00:22:02.060 She is glowing.
00:22:02.720 She is beautiful.
00:22:03.320 I think objectively, we could just say, like, she's had a way stronger career than Blake Lively.
00:22:10.760 She's always been an A-list actress.
00:22:12.560 And she saw the signs early and got out of that relationship and never really spoke about things but came very close to saying that Ryan Reynolds was a bit controlling.
00:22:20.320 And I mentioned to you guys how even his friendship with Hugh Jackman is based off of getting back at Scarlett Johansson because she starred in a movie with him, a huge blockbuster success.
00:22:32.880 And at some point in their marriage, Hugh Jackman said something to Ryan Reynolds.
00:22:36.340 Like, he was like a little punk, like, better be good to my little sister kind of a thing.
00:22:39.960 And Ryan never left Ryan.
00:22:41.220 And he was angry about Hugh Jackman.
00:22:43.000 And so he pretended that they had this, like, rivalry.
00:22:45.560 But deep down, Ryan was serious.
00:22:47.080 But then it developed into a bromance and sort of this way to say, I don't know what to Blake Lively.
00:22:51.580 Like, actually, I'm collecting this person in your life.
00:22:53.860 And I just found it to be very strange that we then learn that Ryan Reynolds is going through this exhaustive effort to get Wayfarer Studios blackballed from Hollywood at the same time that it is, like, announced, we learned this, obviously, that Scarlett Johansson is having her directorial debut in the,
00:23:15.560 the Eleanor film.
00:23:16.820 I'm forgetting the name of it.
00:23:17.520 It's like, I, Eleanor.
00:23:18.380 I don't know why.
00:23:18.820 Eleanor the Great.
00:23:20.180 And this was going to be the first time.
00:23:21.480 And so she was doing, she was working with Justin Baldoni in Wayfarer Studios in her directorial debut.
00:23:26.220 And all of a sudden, he's, like, fighting for Blake Lively to, like, become the director of Justin Baldoni's movie.
00:23:31.920 There's something about that that feels competitive to me.
00:23:35.200 So then I was thinking about this, okay?
00:23:38.000 And another thing that struck me was it made me go back to Brandon Sklenar and that Brandon Sklenar gave an interview where he said, like, he didn't understand essentially why Blake and Ryan were being so nice to him, okay?
00:23:53.800 And I was, like, what was his involvement?
00:23:55.660 I think genuinely an element of this narcissistic abuse is that he love bombs people.
00:24:00.780 And they don't realize that they are all a part of, like, Ryan's web of trying to get back at somebody else.
00:24:07.280 Like, I think they knew their end goal was to take over this movie.
00:24:10.460 And so they loved bomb the young Lily Bloom, which was Isabel Farah.
00:24:14.700 They love bombed Brandon Sklenar with, like, oh, we're just going to be the most amazing couple.
00:24:19.300 We're going to take you to these Wrexham games.
00:24:21.560 And, oh, they love bombed Liz Plank. 1.00
00:24:23.940 Oh, you would be perfect for my documentary that we're doing on soccer.
00:24:27.960 I don't know why you would be perfect, but you would.
00:24:29.360 You are exactly who we're looking for.
00:24:31.040 So they find people in the orbit and they bring them in essentially with surrounding them with A-listers and, you know, surrounding them with money or whatever it is that that person wants.
00:24:40.080 I think Brandon Sklenar at this time, interestingly, I'm not suggesting anything, but he did sign a deal with WME prior to.
00:24:46.100 He was not with one of the big wigs.
00:24:47.540 He wasn't with WME or CAA.
00:24:49.140 And then all of a sudden he gets a deal with WME.
00:24:52.020 And so listen to Brandon Sklenar on the red carpet when a reporter asks him during premiere night about how, you know, Blake and Ryan have taken a liking to him.
00:24:59.720 Take a listen.
00:25:00.920 I think the Reynolds family likes you a lot.
00:25:05.740 They've taken a liking for sure.
00:25:07.760 And I'm very grateful for it because, I mean, I don't think I could literally have anyone better in my corner.
00:25:13.080 And they're just they continue to blow me away with how just real they are and how kind they are.
00:25:21.880 And I mean, to be like in the spotlight the way they are and to still if you know them, they value their family so much.
00:25:30.640 And I think you could feel it in them as people and as performers.
00:25:33.480 And it's it's just such a testament to how you can be and how you should strive to be, I think, honestly, truly.
00:25:39.540 Yeah.
00:25:40.580 Now that we know what they were doing behind the scenes, to hear him give this sort of raving review is quite strange.
00:25:45.120 But again, their target is Justin Baldoni.
00:25:47.540 So they have to be amazing to everybody else.
00:25:49.660 So then I started looking at, like, who else was being love bombed during this time?
00:25:53.080 We've got Liz Plank. 0.54
00:25:53.760 We've got Brandon Sklenar.
00:25:54.720 We've got Bloom, young, young Lily Bloom, Isabel Farer.
00:25:57.480 And I realized that if you go through his like Instagram, Ryan Reynolds Instagram, there's so much Channing Tatum out of nowhere.
00:26:05.200 We've got Channing Tatum everywhere. 0.87
00:26:06.340 And somebody said that Channing Tatum, like, played essentially a cameo as Gambit in the Deadpool movie.
00:26:12.900 So I'm like, that's interesting.
00:26:14.220 And he not just it didn't just stop it like him playing a character in Deadpool, but he also then took him to Wrexham and included him into a commercial.
00:26:21.460 Watch this.
00:26:22.020 Like, we're going to give you seven seconds of this Wrexham ad before we get hit by YouTube for stealing music.
00:26:26.120 Take a listen.
00:26:27.800 All right, boys.
00:26:30.740 Your bosses are not happy with your celebration, Kansas.
00:26:36.720 So, drink up.
00:26:41.080 Try to keep up.
00:26:47.700 So he dances in this ad and whatever.
00:26:50.540 Again, weird crossover events.
00:26:52.660 Like, I know that they have both worked with Marvel, but like they didn't have this like bromance.
00:26:56.560 This is also during the Justin Baldoni crazy time.
00:26:58.920 So I started wondering, what's the connection here?
00:27:00.760 What am I missing here about Channing Tatum?
00:27:03.000 And it's got to be something about power.
00:27:04.940 It's got to be about control.
00:27:06.020 It's got to be about narcissistic abuse.
00:27:07.820 And then this caught my eye.
00:27:09.080 Very interestingly.
00:27:10.160 OK, Scarlett Johansson was co-starring.
00:27:14.180 OK, as a love interest alongside Channing Tatum at this time as well.
00:27:17.960 So she had a couple of things going for her.
00:27:19.920 She's got tons going for her. 0.97
00:27:20.740 But you know what I'm saying?
00:27:21.360 She had her upcoming directorial debut, which was slated for 2023 for her to start filming in Eleanor the Great with Wayfarer Studios.
00:27:30.080 They start targeting Wayfarer Studios and he wants to make her director.
00:27:33.080 She also was filming with Channing Tatum as his love interest in a movie called Fly Me to the Moon.
00:27:40.040 OK, and all of a sudden Channing Tatum is now being announced in 2024 after principal photography has already begun for Deadpool that Ryan is bringing him in as Gambit just for a cambio.
00:27:51.460 And people thought, by the way, in the Marvel Universe world, this was amazing, an amazing act of kindness, because for years, for years, there has been there's this whole long story about how Channing Tatum has wanted to play Gambit since he was a child.
00:28:03.860 It was his lifelong dream.
00:28:05.040 He came really close to it.
00:28:07.380 And then like Marvel sold to Disney and they dropped him.
00:28:10.240 So he wasn't going to be the lead of the movie.
00:28:11.540 And then all of a sudden, here we go.
00:28:13.360 Good guy Ryan Reynolds jumps up to the plate when he's spending time with his ex-wife and is like, I'm going to give you a cameo here.
00:28:20.080 And but I didn't want to jump to conclusions.
00:28:21.460 I was like, maybe this really was just extraordinary timing.
00:28:23.920 Maybe it wasn't even Ryan Reynolds who cast Channing Tatum in Deadpool and Wolverine.
00:28:27.260 It was some other executive.
00:28:28.680 And it really was just this organic thing that happened and they became friends.
00:28:32.020 But I was like, let me dig, because I feel like specifically he picked Channing Tatum and made this happen, made this cameo happen.
00:28:38.480 And then I found it Channing Tatum on Jimmy Fallon saying, yeah, thank you to this wonderful human being, Ryan Reynolds.
00:28:45.820 Take a listen.
00:28:47.040 Did Ryan Reynolds get involved?
00:28:49.140 Ryan, I've said this before.
00:28:52.020 Look, this industry is a really interesting thing.
00:28:54.980 And and like I can honestly say that not one single person is just more of a class act and cares more than that man.
00:29:03.540 Like he he took Gambit out of truly like the grave, like it was just nothing and nowhere.
00:29:09.960 And he was like, no, man, I want this.
00:29:12.100 I want this for you.
00:29:13.680 I want this in the movie.
00:29:15.060 And and like I want to see it.
00:29:17.440 And he made it happen.
00:29:18.700 And I'll forever be grateful.
00:29:20.280 Oh, it's just incredible.
00:29:22.620 It was him.
00:29:23.360 I want this for you, Brandon Sklenar.
00:29:26.160 I want this for you, Channing Tatum.
00:29:28.500 I want this for you, Isabel Ferrer.
00:29:31.060 Like, no, it is about Ryan.
00:29:33.160 And he's always trying to get back at someone else.
00:29:35.540 And in that case, I am telling you, it was not about you, Channing Tatum.
00:29:38.300 I am sorry.
00:29:39.400 It was about Scarlett Johansson.
00:29:40.740 He was squeezing her because he has never seen himself as successful as her.
00:29:45.140 And she's the one that walked away. 0.97
00:29:47.420 I think she saw the signs earlier that he's a narcissistic abuser. 0.99
00:29:50.280 So anyways, all that's insane. 0.69
00:29:51.520 I had to give you guys an update on that.
00:29:52.560 I know I just like oscillate between becoming Brigitte.
00:29:55.700 I'm like in France.
00:29:56.720 And then I'm suddenly like, I got to cover the story because it just keeps getting more
00:29:59.800 and more insane.
00:30:00.400 But that is the update that we have for you.
00:30:03.020 And now I'm going to tell you about some of our amazing sponsors.
00:30:05.700 You guys know how much we absolutely love pre-born.
00:30:07.840 We know how pro-life we are.
00:30:10.660 And I know that there are so many women who struggle with the decision.
00:30:13.680 And some people take the abortion pill.
00:30:15.680 Well, you should know if you have immediate regrets about that, that there now is a reversal
00:30:18.860 treatment, which provides women with a second opportunity to choose.
00:30:21.900 It is bringing babies back to life.
00:30:23.980 When you join forces with pre-born ministries, you empower women to reverse the curse. 0.97
00:30:27.880 What you might not be aware of is that even though Roe was overturned and abortion has
00:30:31.300 been greatly restricted in many states, the abortion pill has superseded surgical abortions,
00:30:34.840 accounting now for over 60 percent of all abortions.
00:30:38.060 Pre-born's network of clinics are on standby for women in those darkest hours.
00:30:41.940 They meet with them with God's love, free services to help them choose life through ultrasounds,
00:30:45.980 and the abortion pill reversal protocol.
00:30:48.240 Pre-born has rescued over 300,000 lives.
00:30:50.560 You can start this new year right by supporting life and by donating to pre-born today.
00:30:54.240 One ultrasound is just $28, and $140 will help to rescue five babies.
00:30:58.320 To donate, just dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby.
00:31:01.300 That's pound 250 baby. 1.00
00:31:02.840 Or you can donate securely at pre-born.com slash Candace.
00:31:06.500 Again, that's pre-born.com slash Candace.
00:31:08.480 And also, now that Dr. Fauci has been pardoned, RFK Jr. is going to unearth what most of us
00:31:13.980 already knew deep down about the pandemic.
00:31:15.900 Sadly, this effort will not help the tens of millions who have never felt the same after
00:31:20.460 getting the virus or the mRNA shots.
00:31:23.040 Luckily for the American people, Pfizer has been forced to release a detailed list of the
00:31:26.660 side effects that are associated with its COVID-19 shots.
00:31:29.560 One of the less severe but common side effects is long COVID syndrome, a condition that leaves
00:31:33.680 people feeling brain fog and chronic fatigue and shortness of breath.

00:32:17.860 All right, got to get into this like weird debate.
00:32:20.540 We're in a weird time.
00:32:21.820 Everything is a new era.
00:32:23.500 We're just in a new era.
00:32:24.260 I don't know what era it is that, you know, Taylor Swift is getting booed.
00:32:28.100 I don't know what era it is that I'm finding myself agreeing with people on the left about
00:32:32.160 a lot of things and disagreeing with some people on the right about some things.
00:32:35.820 But this Tucker Carlson versus Piers Morgan clip really gets down to, I think, we're just
00:32:42.280 choosing different realities.
00:32:43.460 Like, well, I don't know, something splintering in the universe.
00:32:46.040 We're all just splintering and going, OK, I either see things like this or I see things
00:32:50.080 like that.
00:32:51.200 And I've never heard something that is so non-controversial to state that is being received
00:32:57.980 so controversially.
00:32:58.860 And I have a relationship with Piers Morgan, as in like I've done his show, he's done mine.
00:33:02.400 And I actually want to say at the jump of this, no insult to Piers Morgan here, because
00:33:07.940 I think just by hosting both sides of the debate on Gaza and Israel, he has done a tremendous
00:33:12.860 service on his show.
00:33:14.200 But this clip is alarming.
00:33:15.500 OK, find the thing that Tucker Carlson says here that's wrong.
00:33:19.840 OK, I'll check the chat.
00:33:20.920 Maybe it's crazy.
00:33:21.840 Maybe I just can't hear it right.
00:33:23.160 Take a listen.
00:33:24.740 If you're intentionally killing civilians, you probably shouldn't beat your chest
00:33:28.800 and brag about it.
00:33:29.880 You know, maybe you can make.
00:33:30.720 I agree with that.
00:33:31.360 Maybe you make the case that we had to do it or whatever, but you should.
00:33:34.180 I agree.
00:33:34.660 You should weep.
00:33:35.740 And that's evil.
00:33:36.620 And you should just say it's evil.
00:33:37.920 And I know it's really threatening to.
00:33:39.760 Is it evil?
00:33:40.400 Ben Shapiro to say that or whatever.
00:33:41.960 Is it evil?
00:33:42.580 To kill civilians on purpose?
00:33:43.560 Yeah, it is.
00:33:43.880 I think it is.
00:33:44.640 Really?
00:33:44.800 Kids and children.
00:33:45.880 Well, how is it not actually?
00:33:47.300 In a war?
00:33:48.500 We can call it whatever you want. 0.88
00:33:49.760 How is it right to kill women and children?
00:33:51.360 Yeah, so I don't know how, but this clip gets taken out and it starts going viral and people
00:34:00.340 tend to have a perspective that it's not potentially even just asking the question.
00:34:04.720 He says, is it evil during wartime to target innocent?
00:34:07.680 Even asking that question to me, I can't wrap my brain around it.
00:34:13.240 I can't wrap my brain around the level of propaganda that is trying to marry America to the state of Israel in so much that they are now trying to convince us that bombing innocent civilians isn't always the wrong thing to do.
00:34:28.960 And it really, like I said, is a stark contrast to the upbringing that we had when we learned that these sorts of things were patently wrong.
00:34:40.040 It's the entire reason why we had to create the why we why we have the ICC is to make sure situations like this can't happen.
00:34:48.120 And so I was so shocked.
00:34:49.600 And I want to be clear when we talk about on both sides of this, when we talk about innocent hostages or you talk about innocent children, any harm being brought to either side is sad and it's wrong.
00:35:00.720 But it is amazing that we've spent two years being gaslit, watching children being blown up, watching women being blown up, watching kids crying, watching kids starving.
00:35:09.340 And all of a sudden, Western media is in a full like launch, propagandist launch because a hostage was released and the hostage right like without question was clearly starved, has lost a ton of weight.
00:35:24.600 And there's headlines everywhere about it.
00:35:27.160 Everybody's speaking about it.
00:35:28.220 It's like this is the reason like why we have to understand that we have to get involved.
00:35:33.020 Trump came out and said he looks like a Holocaust victim.
00:35:36.160 OK, and I'm just wondering, where was everybody's voices last year when everyone from UNICEF to every organization in the world that I can think of said the children in Gaza are being starved?
00:35:51.300 We saw the images of these children being starved and crying and everyone was quiet.
00:35:56.760 Nobody cared.
00:35:57.460 OK, so I'm just going to show you this CNN report that came out last year that, for whatever reason, didn't generate the same amount of outrage.
00:36:07.240 Take a listen.
00:36:09.160 Hospitals across Gaza are full of malnutrition cases, doctors say, needing special care that simply does not exist.
00:36:19.280 Younes is nine years old.
00:36:20.960 His mother takes off his T-shirt to show the painful evidence of malnutrition and extreme dehydration.
00:36:28.020 She says he was healthy until they were displaced multiple times, from northern Gaza to Rafa to a beach area where she says they don't even have a tent.
00:36:38.120 Food was no longer available, his mother says.
00:36:40.640 There were bad living conditions and polluted water.
00:36:43.780 I'm losing my son in front of my eyes.
00:36:45.900 More than 50,000 children require treatment for acute malnutrition, according to the UN Agency for Palestinian Refugees, UNRWA.
00:36:54.740 The entire world, it felt like the entire world looked away.
00:37:00.700 The Western media looked away when these kids were starving to death.
00:37:04.140 And now, all of a sudden, we get back one hostage which was starving in an area in which we knew that food wasn't going into.
00:37:10.900 And we were gaslit and we were told that noticing that was anti-Semitism, which is shocking because Palestinians are Semitic.
00:37:17.140 And now, all of a sudden, we get one hostage that is in bad condition, which is not OK.
00:37:23.140 I want to be very clear.
00:37:23.920 My perception of that, any person being starved who has nothing to do, like Tucker said, innocent people, especially women and children, though.
00:37:31.500 And it is like all they want to talk about.
00:37:34.260 It's like finally we've got it.
00:37:35.780 And so this, just to be clear to people, is why people see Israel as an ethnic supremacist state.
00:37:43.660 Because what you signal to people over and over again is that if an Israeli is starved, if an Israeli is killed, then it's problematic.
00:37:52.600 But if tens of thousands of children are murdered or if an entire population is being starved, that's just the cost of war.
00:38:00.880 OK, that's not good messaging.
00:38:03.380 And there is no amount of social engineering and propaganda that is going to convince me that what happened to the Gazan children is OK.
00:38:12.180 So I've chosen the reality where wherever Tucker Carlson is, where we can just plainly call things evil and we get to say that there's something deeply wrong with our media for trying to turn us into supremacists and for recognizing that what's happening over there is an evil.
00:38:26.660 As we talk about these children, like they're just like real estate, like they're a real estate deal.
00:38:31.920 There's no amount of propaganda that's going to transform that.
00:38:35.060 And so this, by the way, is perfect time to tell you an amazing update for those of you that knew I'm going on tour in New Zealand and I'm going on tour in Australia.
00:38:42.520 Well, the bad news is that we have to bump that tour to the fall.
00:38:45.700 But the good news is the reason why.
00:38:47.920 So as you guys knew, Australia last year, I had a ton of groups, the ADL, everyone coming after me for saying these plainly obvious things that are just not able to be, in my opinion, argued or manipulated about we needing to protect innocent children.
00:39:00.980 And I did when I was scheduled to tour in Australia before I even applied for my visa, my visa was rejected publicly again before I applied by their minister, Tony Burke.
00:39:13.460 He said, I won't let her in because the Zionist Federation of Australia leaders basically said that I was extreme and that my visa should be canceled.
00:39:20.600 It couldn't have been canceled.
00:39:21.480 I didn't have a visa yet.
00:39:22.840 Long story short, you know, we when we actually did apply, it was Tony Burke put his hand in and said, you can't come into this country. 0.66
00:39:30.120 And he called me everything like it was a stunning document in which I was being accused of being an Islamophobe, an anti-Semite, a racist against black people. 0.93
00:39:39.100 I mean, you name it, a self-hating misogynist. 0.96
00:39:42.120 It was all in there.
00:39:43.040 Basically, there's just he wanted people to know there's no one I like at all.
00:39:46.180 And that's why I couldn't come into the country.
00:39:47.780 And also, I want to be very clear and even that when we submitted my application, there were also Jewish groups that disagreed with that.
00:39:54.020 So it wasn't just like they disagreed with the Zionist Federation and said, even though I don't like her, I don't like her stance on Israel, she should have a right to speak.
00:40:03.540 So it was, you know, being argued on both sides.
00:40:05.860 But we applied to we applied our appealed our case pardon to the high court, which is essentially their their Supreme Court.
00:40:13.500 And we just heard back that the full bench wants to sit this, meaning the entire court, rather than just getting a judge or getting someone to hear it.
00:40:22.060 They're not only just they're not only accepting this case, but the full Supreme Court, if you will, of Australia is going to hear this case, which will be coming up soon.
00:40:29.980 And so that case, if you would like to follow it, which is something that I'm I'm deeply honored that I am going to be the subject of this case.
00:40:37.360 I won't be able to be there for the actual court case because I can't get into the country.
00:40:41.100 But it is Candace Owens Farmer versus the Minister of Affairs versus the Commonwealth of Australia.
00:40:47.660 And so we are going to bump our tour, hoping that they return this decision on this most crucial decision on on free speech in our favor.
00:40:55.960 Obviously, we don't know what's going to happen, but we are going to bump the tour until the fall.
00:41:01.680 And so I just wanted to give you guys that update.
00:41:04.620 I no matter what happens, just to be clear, I have no regrets.
00:41:08.800 You know, if the cost of playing the game and pretending, you know, I can go anywhere in the world as long as I pretend that I don't see children being bombed and starved and women crying.
00:41:17.380 And screaming and shrieking.
00:41:19.400 I would rather not be able to to move around the world.
00:41:22.180 I don't I just don't want to sell my humanity.
00:41:24.820 I just agree with Tucker full heartedly that evil is evil and that we should not be seeing ourselves.
00:41:30.160 It's like, well, it's worse when an American dies than when somebody dies. 0.97
00:41:33.980 Like, you know, if one American dies and we should murder a million Iraqis. 0.98
00:41:37.780 Like, that's not how my brain works. 0.99
00:41:39.160 Like, innocent Iraqis. 1.00
00:41:40.740 Like, I don't think that way.
00:41:42.060 And everyone, I think that way.
00:41:43.040 I never want to bend the knee to evil, as I've said many times.
00:41:46.140 All right, guys.
00:41:46.800 I do want to get into your comments about all of this Baldoni stuff and what we're speaking about.
00:41:52.260 And I do, by the way, I see people in the comments right now.
00:41:54.040 I do want to say that there does seem to be this degree of in order to defend what's happening in Israel right now, you have to blind yourself to evil. 0.87
00:42:01.840 And it is strange.
00:42:03.160 It is strange to see people that I deeply respect in politics not be able to say what Tucker said so plainly and so easily.
00:42:10.300 Before I get into your comments, I do want to remind you guys about American financing, because I know the average person finds it difficult to keep up with monthly expenses.
00:42:16.980 In most cases, there is little left at the end of the month to cover any extras.
00:42:20.460 Most Americans aren't getting a big raise.
00:42:22.380 Expenses are up, and it's very hard to manage without using credit cards.
00:42:25.060 But if you're a homeowner and you're frustrated with that cycle, you can make a 10-minute no-obligation call today to my friends at American Financing.
00:42:31.420 If you're carrying a credit card balance each month with a rate in the 20s or even the 30s, American Financing can show you how to put your hard-earned equity to work and get you out of debt.

00:43:03.380 All right, guys, let's get to your comments.
00:43:05.320 Second book, you can go to MakeHimASandwich.com.
00:43:08.040 Gosh, guys, this was like you have no idea the story behind this book.
00:43:12.120 I've wrangled it from two publishers' hands, and I'm so happy that we will be—that we are now in control of this book.
00:43:18.320 And the timing is—it was just God's timing.
00:43:20.180 Everything going on, the questions that we're starting to ask, I think more people kind of coming towards the middle and having stances and being willing to speak about this sort of radicalized feminism and being able to—
00:43:30.780 I don't know that we could have done this book a year ago or two years ago.
00:43:34.000 I don't think it would have worked.
00:43:35.340 But the timing is right.
00:43:36.440 And so we had already had planned to drop it Valentine's Day and to encourage everybody.
00:43:41.740 It is available for pre-sale, and it will be out late summer.
00:43:46.160 So go to MakeHimASandwich.com, and you will love that.
00:43:49.020 Also, people are commenting about this new—yeah, of course, it's out. 0.98
00:43:52.260 I told you guys, everything is fake and gay. 1.00
00:43:54.980 Bringing back the 90s when everybody got along and everybody said gay, not in a way to denigrate homosexuals, but because, like, we just called everything fake and gay. 0.89
00:44:01.980 Yeah, because we were, like, cool in the 90s.
00:44:03.220 Everybody was cool in the 90s.
00:44:04.460 We were wearing overalls, saving up to go to Disney.
00:44:06.540 Things were chill.
00:44:07.600 Everything got crazy in the 2000s.
00:44:09.080 I don't know who we can blame, but we will find someone who we can blame.
00:44:12.160 All right.
00:44:12.440 Who do we have in the comments today?
00:44:15.020 Taliyah writes, so excited for this show today.
00:44:17.020 As a Philly fan, the booing was diabolical for TS.
00:44:19.820 I was obviously rooting for Philly.
00:44:21.040 I used to live in Philly.
00:44:22.160 I got engaged in Philly.
00:44:24.000 So I got engaged, by the way.
00:44:25.360 If you guys are in Philly, the restaurant Melagrano is fantastic downtown.
00:44:30.040 Go for it.
00:44:31.160 Oh, Nicholas, he's a Swifty. 1.00
00:44:32.720 He's giving his thoughts.
00:44:33.720 Amazing.
00:44:34.040 Okay, Nicholas writes, Candice, I'm a Swifty since Speak Now, and I would love to give
00:44:37.880 my thoughts on Taylor's current PR status.
00:44:40.320 Where can I message you?
00:44:41.400 Right there, Nicholas.
00:44:42.600 You could have messaged me right there.
00:44:43.880 I would have read it out loud.
00:44:45.820 He says that she's repeating her 2016 exposure all over again.
00:44:49.440 I have thoughts and details about her recent hanging out with Selena Gomez right before the
00:44:53.460 Super Bowl.
00:44:54.360 It's known in the fandom that Selena and Blake don't like each other. 0.71
00:44:57.500 Oh, I didn't know this about the fandom.
00:45:00.540 Ooh, I will look into all of that.
00:45:04.340 Thank you very much.
00:45:05.520 Stacey writes, and you can email me always, you guys, any tidbits that you have, info
00:45:09.260 at CandiceOwens.com.
00:45:10.780 Stacey writes, Candice, have you listened to the Gents Talk podcast with Justin Baldoni?
00:45:14.840 Everyone in the comments was tagging you.
00:45:16.220 I have not because it had aired just like an hour before.
00:45:18.600 I knew it was coming out, but I also knew that it was filmed prior to, obviously, the
00:45:23.940 lawsuits being dropped.
00:45:25.060 So it was great marketing on their part.
00:45:26.860 But I did see some clips of him saying that he had anxiety.
00:45:29.180 And so I will definitely go over it and comment on it.
00:45:32.280 Likely, probably on my Instagram stories, I'll do that because tomorrow we're going
00:45:35.340 jumping back into becoming Brigitte.
00:45:37.380 Brian Schwartz writes, I'm not sure Piers understands the nature of this Gaza war.
00:45:40.700 He says it's a war, but it's a dirty war.
00:45:42.460 Piers is kind of boyishly naive and doesn't question authority.
00:45:45.540 What say you?
00:45:46.440 I think he's afraid of the cancellation.
00:45:48.040 I mean, I did not go through a normal thing last year to say a true thing.
00:45:52.100 You know, it's not normal.
00:45:53.520 It is like nothing I've ever seen before in terms of trying to use the media to make
00:45:59.240 people think that you are hateful when, in fact, it's them that's being hateful and it's
00:46:02.860 them that is being inhumane.
00:46:04.560 And it's them that are trying to propagandize and to brainwash people into accepting the 0.69
00:46:09.420 death of children because they're, well, ironically, Semitic. 0.95
00:46:13.540 Like I said, Palestinians are Semitic. 1.00
00:46:15.100 So it was not easy to go through what I went through last year.
00:46:17.840 But I never once lost faith that, you know, you just have to do the right thing.
00:46:22.420 And at the end of the day, I just don't think evil wins.
00:46:25.140 I think it can win temporarily.
00:46:26.380 I think it can win quickly.
00:46:27.600 But I don't think it wins in the end.
00:46:30.360 We have Lisa who writes, Candice, you're such an inspiration and a role model to young
00:46:33.600 girls everywhere.
00:46:34.600 Thank you so much.
00:46:36.060 Real Niza Chick writes, thank you, Candice, for you called me Canada, but it's fine, for
00:46:42.080 being a badass and for standing up for the truth.
00:46:44.580 Will your new book be available for purchase in the UK?
00:46:46.860 Yes, you cannot get it.
00:46:49.540 We got a ton of emails about this.
00:46:50.760 I should have answered that.
00:46:52.520 You cannot get the book available for presale if you are overseas.
00:46:57.580 There's a reason for that.
00:46:58.620 It's like just the way book world works.
00:47:00.620 So for presale, you can.
00:47:01.880 But once it actually goes on official sale, you will be able to get it overseas.
00:47:05.540 And so I will update you guys on all of that.
00:47:08.400 If you guys have signed up for the book club, don't forget, we are reading Chaos.
00:47:12.560 And our first book club meeting is going to be tomorrow.
00:47:15.160 Just go to CandiceOwens.com.
