00:04:34.640And I've also seen people make the argument that, oh, maybe they're doing this on purpose
00:04:38.040because the WNBA is getting more coverage than they've ever gotten before, right? Because people
00:04:42.600have known that their viewership is down. It's not, it's not a profitable business, all those
00:04:46.160things. But I can't give them the credit for being smart enough to come up with this. They slipped
00:04:50.860and fell into the situation because they're such bad leaders. They don't know how to defend and
00:04:55.300protect their athletes in the league. And they don't know how to define a woman, what a woman is.
00:05:00.120And it's really, really sad to see this more than anything else. And I think the young girls who are
00:05:05.540playing basketball right now might look up to this and say, OK, I don't actually want to play
00:05:10.180basketball at the pro level because I'm going to have to deal with this clown show. It's a good
00:05:14.560point. And I haven't really thought of it like that because I think my initial reaction and my
00:05:19.700steady reaction since learning of this is to kind of just laugh at it and not because they're making
00:05:24.060a mockery or they're not intending, I don't believe, to make a mockery of women's sports,
00:05:28.820but they're more so making a mockery of the mockery that has been made of women's sports
00:05:34.080because of people like the WNBA, but you're right. When you have young girls who aspire to be just
00:05:39.860like Caitlin Clark, and they're watching this, and they see someone who looks like Ennis Cantor
00:05:44.480Freedom, who is 6'10", 250 pounds, waiting for them at the goal when they go up for a layup,
00:05:52.320no thanks. I didn't play basketball, but I can tell you, I would not want to go up against that.
00:05:58.080So it's a good point. And, and I don't think the WNBA realizes that ultimately that is the outcome, the probable outcome of what's happening here is you're discouraging young girls from playing. And it starts somewhere, right? I hear the argument all the time. Well, like, it's just middle school girls basketball. Who really cares? Well, don't you think Caitlin Clark started somewhere? She was at one point just a middle school girls basketball player and look at her now.
00:06:26.300So really good point. But nonetheless, I'll be excited to kind of see what the WNBA does here, because it does.
00:06:33.880It forces their hand. And now they're having meetings to figure out what a woman is.
00:06:38.380Thanks to, I think, Inez Cantor Freedom. I want to ask you about Anthony Fauci, Dr.
00:06:44.240Anthony Fauci, because having known you for many years now and also kind of being in the same spot where we were both college athletes during the time of COVID,
00:06:53.620of course it was uh peak 2021 2022 it was the mask it was the the social distancing and all of
00:07:03.460the crazy compliance things that came with covet and being a college athlete during the time
00:07:08.100are you the same as me where you have just like so many memories and pictures tainted with this
00:07:15.020stupid face diaper that half the time i wasn't even wearing above my mouth or my nose it was
00:07:19.740literally on my chin. But nonetheless, it ruined so many good memories and so many pictures I have
00:07:26.840throughout my last two years of college. No, it literally didn't. I remember when we would go to
00:07:31.940the weight room, I would refuse to wear it on my nose, but you had to have it on your face, right?
00:07:36.760So I'd wear it on my chin. And one of our assistant coaches had taken a picture of me, like, you know,
00:07:41.220lifting in the weight room or whatever, and it was on my chin, put it on our team page, and they had
00:07:45.700to remove the photo because they couldn't show their athletes like not properly wearing the
00:07:50.480masks and it was because i was the one in the photo with it on my chin so 100 i remember just
00:07:55.720all of these rules that just felt so made up so we had a rule and none of it made sense but we
00:08:03.720had this rule in 2021 at penn that if you were practicing for your sport you had to be wearing
00:08:09.340a mask so they sent this email all penn athletics got this email you must be wearing a mask when
00:08:13.860practice we're looking at each other thinking okay we're the only sport here that's in the pool
00:08:19.780are we what is what does this mean so then they sent a follow-up email to us saying okay actually
00:08:26.580you guys are the ones sport that you have to wear on the side of the pool but you don't have to do
00:08:30.340it while you're actually practicing because you can't and okay hilarious same thing as the wmba
00:08:35.620back to that i thought about the fact that there was a panel of people in the university athletics
00:08:41.700department and whatever that sat there and had to talk about the fact that they had to give the
00:08:46.280swim team an exemption to not directly swim with their masks on and only have them on on the side
00:08:51.360of the pool madness madness it's like covid just knew not to infect you guys because you were given
00:08:59.040the exemption um and yet to to provide more color to that uh we would go to meets and picture it
00:09:07.220like you're swimming, let's say the 200 fly, and you finish, you touch the wall, you're clearly
00:09:12.800breathing, like it's labored breathing, you're huffing and puffing, you just like swam for two
00:09:17.800minutes straight, full, like full out sprint, you get out of the water, and immediately, you have to
00:09:23.060put your mask on, which your mask has been on the pool deck, your mask is soaking wet, so you put it
00:09:27.760on your face, and you're breathing in water, like we were effectively waterboarding ourselves,
00:09:32.900which is like it's got to be some sort of health hazard i don't know like starving yourself of
00:09:39.080oxygen for two years at a time so um i don't know if this happened to you guys but when we put our
00:09:45.440masks on the side of the pool during practice a lot of people had the same colored mask like black
00:09:49.500or like the blue one yeah and you'd end up swapping masks i remember this one time i knew for sure i
00:09:55.040had a black mask there were no black masks left when i got to the wall and there was a blue one
00:10:00.060And I told my coach, I was like, that is not my mask.
00:10:02.200And he goes, you need to be wearing it.
00:12:33.860recently our company softball team lost the big game by one run then dale tried to console us
00:12:51.660with the quote winning isn't everything well dale and i are very different i get early payout from
00:12:59.100bet365 if my team goes that big i get paid out instantly even if they blow the lead later sound
00:13:05.200familiar deal thanks bet365 must be 19 or older ontario only please play responsibly if you have
00:13:10.780questions or concerns about your gambling or the gambling of someone close to you please go to
00:13:13.460connexontario.ca tnc supply i mean this whole situation makes me so mad because i've seen
00:13:19.440online just in comment sections and what people are posting their own personal experiences where
00:13:25.080maybe they were the woman who struggled and ultimately had a miscarriage and haven't been
00:13:31.580able to get pregnant since. What do you make of this? What's kind of your initial reaction?
00:13:38.660Yeah, I mean, it's so messed up for us. Just like this situation, like we can laugh about
00:13:42.860the mask parts, but there's so many like unfunny things about the whole handling of COVID. And I
00:13:47.800think this is one of them. There are so many things that are looked at for pregnant women
00:13:51.660that are at risk right there's so many medications i've never been pregnant you probably speak to
00:13:55.600this more there's so many things you shouldn't do that they take extra extra extra precautions
00:13:59.500just because you're you're carrying deli meat another exactly you can't have ham you're carrying
00:14:04.320another life right things like that so i'm i'm wondering why they even allowed pregnant women
00:14:09.800to be receiving this vaccine altogether if it was so unknown i remember it was if you remember like
00:14:15.980the process of making this vaccine it was like it was so many years sped up on the process of doing
00:14:20.560these things, right? My brother studied chemistry. You've met my brother. I asked him, I was like,
00:14:23.820does this sound normal? He goes, no, not at all. Like this is so beyond different. They somehow
00:14:28.880broke science and sped up the process of approving and making a vaccine in like half the time they
00:14:34.620normally need. You think about all the, all the different things and you're right. There's a lot,
00:14:41.800um, whether it's weddings being postponed or kids who didn't get to go to school. And you think
00:14:47.080about, especially in those first few years of like first grade and second grade, where that
00:14:52.040learning, I think especially in-class learning is so transformative. Kids didn't get to start that
00:14:56.880process. You think of people who didn't get to walk at graduation, or you think of elderly people
00:15:00.840who died in nursing homes or in hospice alone. I think this is the thing that makes me the most
00:15:07.960mad. And I think just the fact that he knew, or at least knew that it could potentially be
00:15:14.020associated with and now all this raw data is coming out um is criminal is criminal i've said
00:15:20.860it for a while and i know you feel the same or maybe i shouldn't speak for you but um i think
00:15:25.360dr fauci should be in prison for his greed and for his negligence and for his just utter disregard
00:15:31.500for human life and i think to that point for murdering babies because that's how i view this
00:15:38.440and it makes me just it makes me so upset do you think we'll see any sort of recourse or real
00:15:45.060accountability it's important to mention he's like 87 years old so I mean the dude's almost 90
00:15:50.100but nonetheless will do you think we'll see anything happen to him that that ultimately
00:15:57.380points in the direction of justice you know the sad thing is I don't think that we will but yeah
00:16:02.940like I agree with everything you just said and someone in a group chat uh to me sent sent this
00:16:08.060I should go find the text and honestly I'll send it to you afterwards because it was like very very
00:16:11.640pointed statement but it was if Fauci doesn't spend the rest of his life in like behind bars
00:16:16.480we've failed as a society we can't let him get away with something that's not a minor crime
00:16:22.060against a few people every single person was affected by this in one way or another whether
00:16:27.640it was your loss of like minor things like us complaining about wearing masks but there's so
00:16:33.240many greater things that people were harmed by his actions that, again, there needs to be
00:16:37.980accountability for it. And I think we've seen some good stuff. I think bringing him to go to Congress
00:16:43.640and have to answer these questions, even though he pled the fifth, I think that there are people
00:16:46.540in Congress fighting for us and for us people. But I ultimately don't really see anything happening
00:16:52.080to him, which I think is a sad part. And I think many Americans probably agree nothing will happen
00:16:56.100too. Yeah, I think COVID, um, it contributed to people losing trust in the public health
00:17:03.700sector. Um, but I think also in this regard, losing trust in their elected representation
00:17:11.980and government officials, uh, when it comes to justice and real accountability, which
00:17:16.340all are very tragic, um, outcomes and side effects of COVID-19.
00:17:22.560All right, you guys, if you've watched my show before, then you've probably heard me talk about
00:17:28.120my friends at Why Refi before. What they're doing is incredible. It's needed. So my question for you
00:17:34.400is, are you struggling with private student loan debt? Is even your minimum payment higher than
00:17:39.180what you can actually afford? Maybe you're even in default. Well, I have good news. Number one,
00:17:45.100you're not alone. And number two, Why Refi can help. They refinance private student loans that
00:17:50.280other companies, other lenders will not even touch. And they will give you a custom loan
00:17:54.780payment plan based on your ability to pay. They work with you. They sit down with you one-on-one
00:18:00.180that each borrower individually to craft a payment that works for you. They can help you reduce your
00:18:06.000monthly costs, your monthly payment and your total costs. You will get a low fixed interest rate.
00:18:11.260Sometimes they see as low as 1%. You can't get that anywhere else. You'll be able to see the
00:18:16.340light at the end of the tunnel. And the best part is why refi does not care what your credit score
00:18:21.800is. This is good news. Uh, is private student loan debt wrecking your life and destroying your
00:18:28.780dreams and the future that you envision for yourself? Uh, you do not have to live with this
00:18:33.060sort of stress or worry anymore. Just go to why refi.com. That is Y R E F Y.com. And be sure to
00:18:39.860tell them that Riley from the Riley Gaines show sent you. Um, I want to ask you about this new,
00:18:47.620well, I say new, it's really not a new trend. Uh, although I think it has been
00:18:52.060re-intensified if you will, from the early two thousands. And that is, I actually don't know at
00:18:59.080this point if it's eating disorders, trigger warning. If I guess TikTok has conditioned me
00:19:05.140when you're talking about these things, you need to lead with a trigger warning and say that this
00:19:08.780just for educational purposes only. If it's now being caused by eating disorders or Ozempic,
00:19:17.360which was rebranded to GLP-1s, which is then rebranded to peptides, or what is happening
00:19:22.500here, but I call it the Ariana Grande effect. Here's a picture of Ariana Grande, and you can
00:19:26.660see her sternum through her skin. I don't know about you, but it doesn't look like it has any
00:19:35.900sort of lasting, I guess, functional ability here. I mean, this looks totally debilitating,
00:19:41.720and this is clearly the signs of someone who is malnourished. What do you make of Hollywood now
00:19:48.180being like arianified, if you will? Yeah, I don't know what's going on. I think I saw
00:19:54.300something like tweet in my timeline or something of someone being like, someone please explain
00:19:57.920what's going on in Hollywood other than demonic possession, because it's just a really sad and
00:20:04.660disturbing thing to see and i think it's interesting too because the same hollywood that
00:20:09.260was trying to call you know really really overweight people beautiful and healthy and you
00:20:15.320can't say obese and you're fat phobic and all these things we've swung in the opposite direction here
00:20:20.320like we need to just be like healthy normal like you and i pretty thin and i also like i've had
00:20:26.660many meals with you like you and i can eat like you don't even like for sure we're not we're not
00:20:30.460sitting here like trying to to starve ourselves and i i i don't know what's going on and i think
00:20:35.840it's it's really sad to see and again like back to our i guess original conversation is young
00:20:40.060girls are going to see this and think that it's normal and they they look up to these celebrities
00:20:44.500and they're going to want to look like them and i don't think this is a standard that you know they
00:20:50.360should be putting out there but also area mont grande is going to be taking time away from public
00:20:55.540life i'm not sure if you saw that there was some statement about that so maybe there is some sort
00:21:00.060acknowledgement that something isn't quite right there. Yeah, I saw that. I think she's ended her
00:21:05.480tour early. The message was pretty like, I guess, mystique, where I was like, hey, Ariana is going
00:21:15.300to be taking some time to recover and for herself. And I say good. I think that is a really, really
00:21:21.740good thing if to recover and to feel healthy and confident and like your best self. If that means
00:21:29.420taking time away by all means. I think another person who could potentially benefit from that
00:21:35.680is Jenna Ortega. Videos have just surfaced this week of her. Of course, this is Wednesday in the
00:21:43.380Netflix show Wednesday. I really liked Jenna Ortega. I've always liked her. I think she's
00:21:49.320beautiful. I think she's a great actress. And now she looks so ill. Like, and again, I generally
00:21:57.980generally don't like to comment on women's bodies or just bodies in general um because you don't
00:22:03.700know what someone's going through i think healthy can look different for different people you know
00:22:07.440someone weighing 130 130 pounds might be healthy for them it might not be if you're six foot two
00:22:13.680you know so i think healthy is different for different people but jenna ortega does not look
00:22:18.980okay it looks like the life has been sucked out of her and she looks older um do you think maybe
00:22:25.920maybe not these two examples that I've given because I think these are extremes, but I do
00:22:29.800think with your standard Hollywood celebrity, famous elite woman who is desiring to be skinny,
00:22:38.900do you think that it actually ends up making them look better? Because I've come to the conclusion
00:22:45.300now that oftentimes when they do this, whether it's the skinny thing or just injecting themselves
00:22:49.340with all the filler and the Botox and the procedures, plastic surgery, I think sometimes
00:22:54.380it has the opposite effect and it actually makes you look worse it makes you look unnatural and it
00:22:59.300makes you look older yeah I've actually heard that someone was saying that it's kind of the
00:23:04.960skinnier you are the more aged you look because you kind of need some of the fat on your face on
00:23:10.020your body to sort of like fill you out more like kind of like why people even get filler right it's
00:23:14.580like the opposite it's the natural way you'd have that so that is something I've heard people say
00:23:19.460But again, I don't know what is going on in Hollywood.
00:23:23.040And the other thing I want to point out, too, is we are we've never seen these people in person.
00:23:28.160That's true. You actually look 10 pounds skinnier in real life than you do behind a camera.
00:23:34.080And I don't know if I've told you this theory. I've recently figured this out because I saw Alex Earl in person a while ago.
00:23:41.060And we're not talking about her in this conversation, but she is really, really ultra, ultra thin in a way that you probably wouldn't expect.
00:23:49.260I'm not putting her in this box of someone who needs to be like maybe is unhealthy in a way but
00:23:54.060she's a lot thinner than she looks looking at her on video and so I also want to point that out that
00:23:59.500it might even be worse than what we're seeing and for some reason a lot of people who are behind
00:24:04.100the camera a lot and a lot of people who are in movies they get start to get self-conscious of
00:24:08.320that and then they lose even more and more and more weight so that is also maybe a factor why
00:24:12.300this could be happening I have people who say that to me all the time it's like your standard
00:24:16.280Fox News watcher so think of like maybe a little older and oftentimes men who like don't have much
00:24:23.120of a filter and they're like oh I thought you were a lot bigger I'm like oh I don't know if I should
00:24:28.620like be flatter or say thanks or be offended I don't know but I do I think I have like a rounder
00:24:33.940face and so when you can't see my body I actually agree with your assessment um for sure I want to
00:24:41.300ask you too about we saw a pretty big like dichotomy this week where on one hand you have
00:24:48.620AOC freezing her eggs um obviously you have to imagine with the intent of hopefully one day soon
00:24:56.960relatively soon I think it has to be soon given her age of having babies and on the other hand
00:25:02.620you have Caroline Levitt who just welcomed life into this world a little baby girl um our press
00:25:07.540secretary or i should say our former press secretary who has now taken a step back to spend
00:25:12.380more time as um a present mom what do you make of of both situations uh let's start with like the
00:25:20.240whole aoc thing um i will say really quickly um this comes after she just announced her i think
00:25:27.760pretty uh stark breakup with her fiance boyfriend i think they were engaged for like nearly four
00:25:35.220years or something like that. And when I think it was TMZ was asking her about it, you know,
00:25:39.700they follow people on the Hill and they're asking her about a breakup. She's like, Oh, well,
00:25:42.900that's my private life. I keep that private. I'm like, girl, not even two days ago, you were
00:25:47.300injecting yourself publicly online for everyone to see freezing your eggs. So like,
00:25:53.240do you really want it private? I don't know. Every single day, thousands of women hear the
00:25:58.820same devastating lie that abortion is their only option, that they're alone, that there's no hope,
00:26:05.740but everything changes the moment that a mother in crisis walks into a pre-born network clinic
00:26:10.700and sees her baby on an ultrasound for the very first time. That one moment, that one instance
00:26:16.840doubles her chance at choosing life. Because at that point, it's not just an image on a screen,
00:26:23.180It's hearing with your own ears, your baby's heartbeat, undeniable life, maybe for the very
00:26:29.180first time. And in that moment, the mother realizes that life is growing inside her.
00:26:35.040And that's not a problem to be solved, but instead it's a life to be protected. Let's be there for
00:26:40.580that mom in crisis in that beautiful moment with love and with prayer and with support.
00:26:46.260One pre-born partner put it this way, said, knowing my gift could save a life was the most
00:26:50.680meaningful act of love that I could give. So my proposition to you is that for just $28,
00:26:57.340you can partner with my friends at Preborn and provide one life-saving ultrasound. $140
00:27:02.720provides five ultrasounds. You know what that is? That's five chances for life. That's what me and
00:27:08.440my husband choose to do every month. We give $140 to Preborn. This year, let's make it the biggest
00:27:14.120baby-saving year in history. So I encourage you to take a stand and to be bold and to speak for
00:27:20.620those who cannot yet speak for themselves, you can call pound two 50 and say, baby, that's pound
