Louder with Crowder - #152 TRUMP VS. KIM JONG! Dennis Prager and Paul Joseph Watson | Louder With Crowder

00:00:01.000 Hey Jared, what are you doing?

00:00:03.000 I'm just getting ready for the show.

00:00:04.000 Just cleaning my carry piece here.

00:00:07.000 My SIG P238. Nice firearm.

00:00:14.000 I didn't know that you carried a.380.

00:00:17.000 That's fine for you.

00:00:19.000 I wouldn't be caught dead without...

00:00:22.000 At least a 9mm when I leave the house.

00:00:26.000 What?

00:00:28.000 There's just a misunderstanding, clearly.

00:00:30.000 Don't get cute.

00:00:31.000 That's funny you say that, because that's just my ankle piece.

00:00:34.000 It's from my ankle holster.

00:00:36.000 I don't leave the house with anything less than Glock 2145.

00:00:42.000 That's just me.

00:00:42.000 I think we're getting wires crossed.

00:00:44.000 I think we're missing each other, because this is my backup.

00:00:47.000 No, I don't leave the house with anything less than my...

00:00:52.000 Military spec set in an AR-15 femur holster.

00:00:57.000 Oh.

00:00:59.000 But fine for you.

00:01:00.000 I see.

00:01:01.000 That might be fine for you.

00:01:03.000 I mean, if target acquisition isn't a problem or not.

00:01:05.000 But for me, personally, I don't need a house any less than a fully loaded bazooka.

00:01:12.000 Okay.

00:01:13.000 Holsters are hard to come by. 0.98

00:01:14.000 I can imagine.

00:01:14.000 Finger off the trigger.

00:01:15.000 I'm sorry.

00:01:16.000 Aimed in my general direction.

00:01:17.000 My bad.

00:01:17.000 But, you know, that's just me.

00:01:18.000 That's just personal preference.

00:01:22.000 One second.

00:01:23.000 But I don't leave the house with anything less than my A1M1 Abrams-style battle tank!

00:01:44.000 *gunshot* *gunshot* *gunshot* *gunshot* Ah, yeah?

00:02:04.000 I'd never leave the house with anything less than my A-10 war dog!

00:02:09.000 50 caliber mother... 0.93

00:02:11.000 Well, that's okay, I guess, if you're not planning on anything more than one assailant.

00:02:19.000 You're not going to be president, all right?

00:02:33.000 This race is over.

00:02:35.000 Trump will not be president.

00:02:36.000 But truthfully, okay, I'd never leave the house, frankly, without the case of the nuclear codes.

00:02:42.000 But truthfully, okay, I'd never leave the house, frankly, without the keys to the nuclear codes.

00:02:51.000 Thank you.

00:03:18.000 You're a strange animal, that's what I know. 0.98

00:03:22.000 You're a strange animal, I get to follow. 0.90

00:03:29.000 I'm a spiritist.

00:03:33.000 Ancient art of Kataa.

00:03:47.000 We're still practicing it because to learn about other people's cultures is to appreciate their cultures.

00:03:51.000 Producing in video studio, as always, with me is Jared, who is not gay. 0.92

00:03:54.000 Follow him on Twitter at notgayjared.

00:03:56.000 Me at S. Crowder.

00:03:57.000 I fulfill my legal obligations.

00:03:58.000 Draw your own conclusions.

00:03:59.000 Are we good?

00:03:59.000 We are good.

00:04:00.000 I don't care that much because you're sick. 0.95

00:04:02.000 It is true. 0.95

00:04:03.000 Hopefully it's a shallow grave.

00:04:04.000 At G. Morgan Jr.

00:04:06.000 with us.

00:04:06.000 You doing well, sir?

00:04:07.000 Awesome.

00:04:07.000 Doing great.

00:04:08.000 Doing great.

00:04:09.000 Emphasis on the...

00:04:10.000 I don't know why they felt the need to do that in a lot of novels, novellas.

00:04:13.000 It was a shallow grave.

00:04:14.000 A shallow grave.

00:04:15.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:04:15.000 You're dead enough. 1.00

00:04:17.000 You're pressed for time. 0.98

00:04:19.000 Huge show tonight.

00:04:20.000 We have Paul Joseph Watson and Dennis Prager, so we're going to skip along and get to them.

00:04:24.000 I know many of you were excited, had some questions for them.

00:04:27.000 Before we get to news about the mother of all bombs dropped on ISIS in Afghanistan, and we're going to talk about North Korea because they're acting up. 0.97

00:04:35.000 Vagina Museum. 0.97

00:04:36.000 That's a thing. 0.96

00:04:37.000 There was a fundraiser for a vagina museum which is going to be opened. 0.87

00:04:42.000 You wanted it.

00:04:44.000 You have it now. 0.99

00:04:47.000 A vagina museum. 0.99

00:04:48.000 Of course, HuffPo was all on board with this. 0.99

00:04:50.000 A museum regarding vaginas. 1.00

00:04:52.000 And this was trending. 0.98

00:04:54.000 People sent it off on both sides, of course. 0.99

00:04:56.000 You know, feminists thought that it was a straw man to say that they simply screamed, My vagina! 1.00

00:05:00.000 But now they literally want a museum that is just, My vagina! 1.00

00:05:04.000 So, there's not a whole lot to discuss here. 0.99

00:05:08.000 You can sound off with your opinions.

00:05:09.000 But most happy about this future installation was Timmy.

00:05:13.000 So he seems to be pretty...

00:05:15.000 That's the look of a man who knows what he wants.

00:05:20.000 I understand this. 0.99

00:05:21.000 Apparently there's some kind of a penis museum that exists. 1.00

00:05:25.000 I guess so in Poland because they have nothing else to do there. 0.99

00:05:28.000 What do you think?

00:05:29.000 You know, that was not a conversation with men.

00:05:32.000 No. 0.99

00:05:33.000 We need a penis museum. 1.00

00:05:35.000 I wouldn't be surprised if it was. 0.99

00:05:37.000 If it was, it was like, hey guys, what are you about making like a dick museum? 0.97

00:05:42.000 Dude! 0.94

00:05:43.000 Dude, that's hilarious.

00:05:45.000 Yeah, exactly. 0.89

00:05:45.000 Oh, the feminists are going to lose their minds. 0.89

00:05:49.000 How does this help your cause? 0.90

00:05:51.000 It's terrible. 0.99

00:05:52.000 And I understand this, you know, women, these feminists, I get it that some of them, they want to have a big, giant vagina for them because they do have a complex. 1.00

00:05:59.000 They have a chip on their shoulder. 0.99

00:06:00.000 And I understand it.

00:06:01.000 At a certain point, it does have to be tough because the best at everything in history, almost always as a man, the best soldiers are men, the best doctors, the best surgeons, the best scientists, the best chefs, the best women, apparently.

00:06:17.000 You were better at being you than you!

00:06:20.000 I can't win.

00:06:23.000 The best women's wrestler in Texas is a boy.

00:06:25.000 The best female track and field athletes are now men.

00:06:27.000 You opened this door, and now you're trying to rectify it with a big, giant hoo-ha museum. 0.96

00:06:32.000 Well, good luck with that.

00:06:33.000 I think the damage has been done.

00:06:36.000 Speaking of damage, the U.S. did drop the mother of all bombs in Afghanistan today.

00:06:40.000 We don't have a ton of information right now, just so you know.

00:06:44.000 We've been locked up in the studio recording some bits for you and also pre-recording for next week.

00:06:47.000 So people who are watching this in a time capsule on YouTube or on SoundCloud, we're like, we don't know yet.

00:06:54.000 Sincerely, Stephen, from the past.

00:06:57.000 We get comments from people who are like, listen to this two weeks from now, like, why don't you talk about this?

00:07:01.000 Because we didn't know!

00:07:01.000 Isn't this podcast auto-updated by the minutes?

00:07:06.000 So it's called a massive ordnance bomb and comes in at 21,600 pounds. 0.99

00:07:12.000 Damn! 0.99

00:07:12.000 That's big. 0.99

00:07:13.000 So basically the biggest bomb we have outside of a nuke...

00:07:17.000 Let's be real here.

00:07:18.000 They talk about how it was retaliatory action because I believe a soldier possibly was killed. 0.87

00:07:24.000 This is slapping your schwanson on the table. 0.95

00:07:26.000 That's what's happening right now.

00:07:27.000 Donald Trump wants to be the not Obama, and I think this is just a warning shot that we're not to be messed with.

00:07:33.000 Yeah, he's basically saying, I'm not like the last guy.

00:07:36.000 You really misjudged me.

00:07:37.000 Hey, what do we got over there?

00:07:39.000 No, no, no.

00:07:39.000 No, go bigger.

00:07:40.000 Yeah.

00:07:41.000 Let's get the biggest thing we've got.

00:07:42.000 I think that's what's happening here.

00:07:44.000 All I know is I want to watch that thing when I am ax.

00:07:46.000 I know.

00:07:47.000 I want to sit back and just let it rip.

00:07:49.000 Can we drop it like in Utah where nobody cares anyway and it's not going to have a radioactive cloud and just see what happens?

00:07:54.000 Utah is full of beautiful country and beautiful people.

00:07:56.000 Oh, I know.

00:07:57.000 I'm going to get haters from Utah.

00:07:59.000 All five of them.

00:08:00.000 I'm not from there, but my friend is from there.

00:08:02.000 It's like...

00:08:03.000 All of my wives hate you now. 1.00

00:08:04.000 Yeah, I'm going to unsubscribe because Crowder hates Utah. 0.96

00:08:09.000 I'm going to pretend like I didn't hear that one.

00:08:10.000 We have some wonderful fans in Utah.

00:08:13.000 We love you.

00:08:14.000 Actually, you said I don't think we do have footage of the actual bomb being dropped.

00:08:18.000 A lot of media, they're kind of speculating.

00:08:20.000 We do actually have footage of, well, we do have a screenshot of the location after the bomb was dropped, in case you were so.

00:08:26.000 Looks like there's a little bit of a change in topography.

00:08:28.000 Ooh, how to update the maps.

00:08:30.000 Yeah.

00:08:31.000 You're gonna go there and see Kal-El.

00:08:35.000 I'm not against.

00:08:36.000 This is ISIS in Afghanistan.

00:08:37.000 I don't think you're going to see a lot of criticism.

00:08:39.000 With Syria, I don't think Assad or ISIS at that point are a huge threat.

00:08:43.000 It really is more of a humanitarian effort.

00:08:45.000 With Afghanistan, I think pretty much everyone is on board after 9-11.

00:08:49.000 Even leftists, even Barack Obama was like, yeah, why do we go into Iraq?

00:08:53.000 Iraq didn't attack us.

00:08:54.000 Afghanistan did. 0.94

00:08:55.000 And that was kind of their trump card.

00:08:57.000 And so dropping bombs in Afghanistan is actually kind of politically popular.

00:09:01.000 I think you get a pass.

00:09:02.000 Yeah.

00:09:03.000 I think you do, and I don't think there's going to be a lot of collateral damage out there.

00:09:06.000 Here's something, though, that does worry me.

00:09:08.000 You know, we've been talking about, for those who missed it on Monday's show...

00:09:12.000 We went through the entire timeline with Syria, with Assad, with the Russians, who backed who, how the conflict started, how the rebels, how ISIS was created, when the red lines were drawn by Barack Obama, when he went back on the red lines and claimed he never drew the red lines.

00:09:27.000 So on Monday, we did this pretty in-depth, I think, 20-plus minutes on just Syria and how it was created.

00:09:33.000 I'm not saying I'm the first to do it, but a lot of people emailed us and said, hey, you know, that was helpful.

00:09:36.000 I didn't really have a firm grip on what's been going on there, and this gives me a little bit of a foundation.

00:09:41.000 So go and watch Monday's show, those who are Mug Club members. 1.00

00:09:44.000 But we want to do the same today with North Korea because a lot of people aren't super aware of what's happening with North Korea.

00:09:52.000 There are rumors that they could be testing some nukes on Saturday because it's an anniversary of some kind.

00:09:59.000 I will say this.

00:10:00.000 I'm actually more concerned with North Korea than I am with Syria.

00:10:05.000 And I understand geopolitically Syria is important.

00:10:07.000 And I understand the implications with Assad and with Putin.

00:10:10.000 I get it.

00:10:11.000 Remember that time when we used to talk about Donald Trump being a secret Russian agent?

00:10:14.000 Way back in the day.

00:10:16.000 But with North Korea, I mean, even if they can't hit the United States, and they very likely can't, they can hit South Korea. 0.92

00:10:22.000 And they can hit all of our troops who are in military bases around there. 0.99

00:10:26.000 And they're crazy people.

00:10:27.000 You know, a lot of times you're like, well, they won't do it because they know there's mutually assured self-destruction. 1.00

00:10:31.000 Yeah, but this is a crazy person. 0.94

00:10:33.000 This is Kim Jong-un. 1.00

00:10:34.000 He's not a sane human being.

00:10:36.000 And I know you said, they kind of, they...

00:10:39.000 A little bit of saber-rattling.

00:10:41.000 When anybody else is getting more attention than them, it's kind of like the brother's like, no, no, no, listen to me.

00:10:45.000 We should just send Dennis Rodman and he'll fix it.

00:10:47.000 Yeah, yeah, exactly.

00:10:48.000 That is what happens in North Korea.

00:10:50.000 By the way, Kim Jong-un went to Western schools. 0.99

00:10:52.000 Why didn't we just kill him then? 0.99

00:10:53.000 I don't know. 0.99

00:10:54.000 We had a chance.

00:10:56.000 So what are their capabilities?

00:10:58.000 We don't know.

00:10:58.000 Japan came out and said that they do believe North Korea is capable of striking with sarin gas.

00:11:03.000 So that's getting pretty serious.

00:11:05.000 We don't want to go all the way back to the Korean War and necessarily kind of China and that relationship.

00:11:09.000 But let's start with sort of in modern times what's been going on with North Korea.

00:11:13.000 2005-2006, that's when they first admitted that they had nuclear weapons and they started conducting tests.

00:11:19.000 So that's important.

00:11:20.000 That's kind of the new era of North Korea and nukes. 0.73

00:11:23.000 In 2007 and 2008, they shut down their main reactor and they agreed to inspections in return for massive aid packages.

00:11:30.000 So kind of like a kid who was sent to his room, but he was hungry.

00:11:34.000 Ah, no, we cool, right?

00:11:36.000 I didn't mean it!

00:11:37.000 And came back and they said, okay, we're going to play nice, send the massive aid package.

00:11:42.000 That was 2007, 2008.

00:11:43.000 2009, they decided to renege and begin testing again.

00:11:46.000 So...

00:11:48.000 I have my fingers crossed!

00:11:51.000 Little fingers, little fingers.

00:11:53.000 Then in 2013, there was the third nuclear test.

00:11:56.000 They restarted all the facilities.

00:11:57.000 They fired more rockets, for those of you who missed this.

00:12:00.000 By the way, I should preface this.

00:12:01.000 Nearly every time these tests have been conducted or they've launched off rockets or missiles, the reprimanding that has taken place has been the UN wagging their finger and putting in sanctions and then doing nothing.

00:12:14.000 Yep.

00:12:15.000 All the way back to 2005.

00:12:16.000 Nothing.

00:12:16.000 Zero.

00:12:18.000 I think you saw that on Team America.

00:12:19.000 They're talking about, ah, Hans Brax, you're breaking my ball.

00:12:21.000 So that's pretty much, if you're going, well, how do they keep doing these tests for people who are younger who don't know?

00:12:25.000 Well, it's because all that happened was, I'm going to count to three.

00:12:29.000 I'm going to put you in timeout. 0.99

00:12:30.000 And they just kicked their dad in the balls. 0.99

00:12:32.000 Next time I'm serious. 0.99

00:12:33.000 Next time I'm serious.

00:12:34.000 Next time.

00:12:36.000 Oh, you're going to be in very big trouble, little Kimmy. 0.96

00:12:41.000 So I think you said 2013, yeah.

00:12:43.000 Third nuclear test refired.

00:12:45.000 2014.

00:12:46.000 So they entered in talks to stall.

00:12:48.000 They fail.

00:12:49.000 New sanctions are imposed in 2014.

00:12:51.000 And then in 2016, 2017, now this is where we have more tests, they claim to be able to mount nukes to missiles, and they claim that they will attack the U.S. mainland.

00:13:02.000 So I get that it's kind of funny, because a lot of people think, well, they don't have the capabilities.

00:13:06.000 Here's the truth.

00:13:07.000 We don't know...

00:13:09.000 Anything about their capabilities.

00:13:11.000 We do know, I think it was 2005, they had a one kiloton bomb.

00:13:15.000 And then in 2010, it was 10 kilotons.

00:13:16.000 So you can see that there is a progression there, which I find troubling.

00:13:19.000 And I don't think they can hit the US mainland.

00:13:21.000 A lot of experts, intel experts are saying that's the case, but it is kind of guesswork because North Korea is a security state and we don't have any intel there on the ground.

00:13:30.000 But we do know at the very least they could mess some stuff up for South Koreans, who are a great ally.

00:13:36.000 And this would be something I'd keep my eye on.

00:13:39.000 This would be something I would keep my eye on because them acting up could create a lot of instability.

00:13:43.000 But you were talking about how you don't think they will, Gerald, because it's very different with China, this go-around.

00:13:48.000 Yeah, they've kind of run out of friends in that neighborhood.

00:13:50.000 They don't have a big backer anymore.

00:13:51.000 So I think the politics are a little bit different right now.

00:13:54.000 I do think that you're right. 0.87

00:13:55.000 They are crazy. 0.96

00:13:56.000 They can mess up South Korea a lot. 0.97

00:13:57.000 And that's the only reason we haven't done anything right now, by the way.

00:13:59.000 It's because South Korea can get nuked very quickly.

00:14:02.000 But I don't think they're going to do it.

00:14:04.000 I just think they're getting some attention.

00:14:06.000 That's their game.

00:14:07.000 They're doing it, but there doesn't need to be a certain point.

00:14:10.000 Right?

00:14:10.000 Like we're talking about with red lines.

00:14:11.000 And that point needs to occur where we go, okay, they're an actual threat.

00:14:14.000 And we just, we can't know.

00:14:15.000 So I think that there's going to be a lot of guesswork, probably in this presidency, more than any in the last 20 years.

00:14:21.000 I think North Korea is going to come to a head.

00:14:23.000 And I think everyone's kind of been laughing about it for a while.

00:14:27.000 But we'll see what their capabilities are.

00:14:28.000 And if they're even remotely threatening, I think it's going to look like the Ice Castle.

00:14:33.000 Well, if there's any place in the world that we should be going into, it's definitely North Korea. 0.99

00:14:37.000 The problem is, who do you snipe?

00:14:39.000 There's no sanity at any level in the government.

00:14:41.000 You pretty much have to take out all of them.

00:14:43.000 Yeah, I guess.

00:14:44.000 You just have to take out the entire lineage.

00:14:45.000 But they do it half the time with their own relatives.

00:14:47.000 So I will say this.

00:14:49.000 It's one thing to watch.

00:14:51.000 For me, it's something that worries me more about Syria or Russia because, again, Russia is out for their own self-interest. 0.91

00:14:55.000 I think Putin is a totalitarian who kills political dissidents.

00:14:58.000 I do believe that's happened. 0.60

00:14:59.000 But I think, by and large, they're not looking to conquer the West.

00:15:02.000 I do think North Korea would love to.

00:15:03.000 They just don't have the capabilities to.

00:15:05.000 But don't take your eye off them because they are very crafty and very resourceful.

00:15:10.000 South Korea, you will now feel my wrath as I jujitsu your own utilities against you! 0.99

00:15:17.000 Bums away! 0.99

00:15:21.000 Can you hear me now? 0.88

00:15:24.000 You're about to incur roaming charges!

00:15:32.000 Not a big wardrobe budget there.

00:15:35.000 That one came together toward the last minute.

00:15:40.000 But listen, if you give them an inch South Korea, they will take a mile. 1.00

00:15:45.000 Exploding phones belong in a novelty shop.

00:15:48.000 Not with Sprint.

00:15:49.000 Maybe with Sprint.

00:15:50.000 Maybe with Sprint and Nextel.

00:15:50.000 Maybe with Sprint.

00:15:53.000 Okay, we have to move on.

00:15:54.000 We don't have a ton of time here.

00:15:55.000 Islamic apologists.

00:15:56.000 Did you see this, Jared?

00:15:57.000 I did.

00:15:58.000 Yes, I did.

00:15:59.000 There's a group in Australia.

00:16:02.000 What is the name of it?

00:16:03.000 It's Women's of something Australia.

00:16:05.000 Anyways, influential political group, Islamic group, and this has been making the rounds, been very viral, of these Muslim women. 0.98

00:16:11.000 It's a group for Muslim women.

00:16:14.000 For Muslim women, by Muslim women. 0.79

00:16:16.000 There's no lifetime for Muslim women. 1.00

00:16:19.000 Please, God, no.

00:16:21.000 You think it's bad on Lifetime?

00:16:22.000 Not another one.

00:16:23.000 It's always an affair and an abusive husband.

00:16:25.000 It starts off with the abusive husband. 0.99

00:16:27.000 With midgets. 1.00

00:16:27.000 You gotta add the midgets. 1.00

00:16:28.000 Lifetime is full of midget shows. 0.83

00:16:29.000 You know that?

00:16:30.000 Yeah, on Lifetime.

00:16:31.000 It's true.

00:16:32.000 They are overrepresented.

00:16:33.000 That really bothers me.

00:16:35.000 Well, let's go to a clip. 0.96

00:16:36.000 They were explaining away how it is okay to beat your wife in Islam. 0.98

00:16:41.000 These are Muslim women. 0.99

00:16:41.000 Let's watch it. 0.99

00:16:42.000 I want to make this point very clear that he is permitted.

00:16:45.000 Not obliged here, or not encouraged, but he's permitted to hit her. 0.99

00:16:51.000 No, that sucks. 0.99

00:16:53.000 Permitted. 0.98

00:16:54.000 That's exactly what the answer is.

00:16:57.000 Permitted, not advocated. 0.99

00:16:59.000 You say tomato, I say beat the sh** out of you. 0.99

00:17:01.000 So... 0.99

00:17:02.000 And here's the thing, a lot of people will just say, well, you know, these are not extremists.

00:17:06.000 No.

00:17:07.000 These are not extremists.

00:17:08.000 This is mainstream Islam.

00:17:09.000 And even if you pin any Muslim down, they will try to point to an example of their holiest prophet, terrorism be upon him, Muhammad, that he didn't really beat his six-year-old wife that badly. 0.66

00:17:19.000 Here's the exact verse.

00:17:21.000 He said, He struck me—this is Aisha writing—he struck me on the chest, which caused me pain, and then said, Do you think that Allah and his apostle would deal unjustly with you?

00:17:21.000 I'll read it for you.

00:17:34.000 So, by the way, for those who are saying, well, that's one verse taken out of context, what I would like you to do is take your Quran or Hadith and open it up to what is commonly referred to as a page.

00:17:45.000 Any page.

00:17:46.000 Pick a page.

00:17:47.000 And you can read five pages in any direction.

00:17:49.000 Okay.

00:17:50.000 First off, before I move on, Gerald, because you've taught a lot about this, is this an extremist group that's outside of, we know Muhammad did this, but how common has it been historically in Islam to beat your wives?

00:18:00.000 It's very common, and I think if you have the time, watch before and after that clip that we showed, because before they're like, you can sternly warn her, and if she doesn't come around, you can deny her sex, essentially.

00:18:10.000 You won't sleep with her.

00:18:11.000 Right.

00:18:12.000 Yeah.

00:18:13.000 You're holding a leverage there, Qaddafi. 0.83

00:18:16.000 You're not going to get any of these hairy paint!

00:18:20.000 That may not have been the best option for them.

00:18:22.000 But then hitting her is last, and she said, he's permitted, but he's not prescribed.

00:18:25.000 And then right after that, she goes, and it's such a beautiful thing.

00:18:28.000 And I'm like, are you serious?

00:18:29.000 She said that right after that? 0.89

00:18:30.000 Right after that, it's such a beautiful thing.

00:18:31.000 Why didn't we include that in this clip?

00:18:33.000 It's hilarious.

00:18:33.000 I don't know.

00:18:34.000 I was like, are you, that's real life?

00:18:36.000 This happens?

00:18:37.000 Yeah, and where are the feminists? 1.00

00:18:38.000 Again, for example, out there, and I know people just say you sound hypocritical because, oh, let's worry about our own country, but this is being uploaded to Facebook as a justification for Islam, as a justification to beat their wives. 0.96

00:18:52.000 I'm not saying you have to go in and start an organization in every Middle Eastern country. 0.92

00:18:56.000 I'm not saying, feminists, you have to start up an organization in Iran or start up an organization in Palestine. 1.00

00:19:01.000 What I'm saying is when they even come into your own backyard and post a video encouraging and teaching people how men can beat their wives according to their religion, where's Breonna Wu? 0.99

00:19:12.000 Where's Lacey Green? 1.00

00:19:14.000 Where's Naomi Wolf? 1.00

00:19:15.000 Where are any feminists on this? 1.00

00:19:17.000 And I don't mean it should just be a peep or a comment.

00:19:19.000 If you want to censor the internet, How is this allowed to stay up on Facebook? 0.99

00:19:24.000 We say Beyonce dances like a whore, and she does! 1.00

00:19:27.000 It gets removed? 1.00

00:19:28.000 But ah, if you only beat your wife lightly! 1.00

00:19:32.000 Zuckerberg's on board? 0.75

00:19:33.000 It didn't even say lightly, it just said beat your wife. 0.98

00:19:36.000 You can beat her.

00:19:37.000 You tried two things, third strike, she's out. 0.99

00:19:39.000 Sorry.

00:19:40.000 What galactical wormhole did I fall into where this is okay on Facebook and nobody is talking about it on the left?

00:19:48.000 Emma Watson was busy for comment.

00:19:49.000 Yes, Emma Watson was busy.

00:19:51.000 She could not be reached for comment.

00:19:53.000 It really is remarkable.

00:19:55.000 And again, I always say this.

00:19:56.000 Don't look to the Muslim who's in your college class who goes with you to the bar because they're basically a secularized Muslim. 1.00

00:20:01.000 Look wherever Muslims congregate and create power. 1.00

00:20:05.000 Look at any Muslim country throughout history.

00:20:07.000 Look at anywhere Muslims either become a majority or wherever Muslims even have a small portion of that country where they become a majority, as you see in the UK, as you see in France, as you see in Sweden.

00:20:16.000 This is always what happens.

00:20:18.000 Not sometimes, not kind of.

00:20:21.000 Even when you point back to the great advances made under the Ottoman Empire, even when you point back and you try and claim that they created the modern numerical system, which is debatable considering the influence from the Greeks.

00:20:30.000 Even when you go back and try and claim all of these great things that was invented under Muslim society, guess what? 1.00

00:20:35.000 Their wives were still getting the hell beaten out of them and it was okay. 1.00

00:20:37.000 So it's always sucked. 1.00

00:20:41.000 Islam is the enemy of Western civilization. 1.00

00:20:44.000 Islam. 0.99

00:20:44.000 Not all Muslims, but Mohammed and Islam. 0.99

00:20:46.000 I think that's fair.

00:20:47.000 Watch this get removed, and that thing stay up.

00:20:49.000 Watch YouTube demonetize this video, and that one's going to have Tampax Pearl faster than you can say jihad.

00:20:58.000 This is a weird sponsor.

00:21:00.000 It's a very coveted demographic for Tampax.

00:21:03.000 They feel like they've been using pads for far too long.

00:21:05.000 Oh, that's true.

00:21:06.000 Try the Pearl.

00:21:06.000 It'll change your point of view.

00:21:09.000 Speaking of things that really, this is just, it's not necessarily news.

00:21:11.000 We have to get to Paul Joseph Watson and then Dennis Prager.

00:21:13.000 Bothers me a lot. 0.97

00:21:14.000 Can we stop with the female, the female here, the female badasses? 1.00

00:21:17.000 Yes. 0.98

00:21:18.000 Can we stop with that?

00:21:19.000 Do we all, when is this unwritten agreement where you all have to act like, oh yeah, I'm impressed.

00:21:23.000 Oh yeah, alias.

00:21:24.000 Oh yeah, I buy that Ronda Rousey would beat 230 pound men. 1.00

00:21:27.000 Oh yeah, oh yeah.

00:21:28.000 Like, if we say something, we're sexist, or if we act as though we don't want to see these films, it was Atomic Blonde now is the latest one with Charlize Theron.

00:21:35.000 You can see here that the trailer number two was released where she beats every single man in an unrealistic fashion. 1.00

00:21:42.000 And everyone tries to act like, oh, yeah, see, women can be badass, too. 1.00

00:21:46.000 Just look at this.

00:21:46.000 That's just...

00:21:48.000 Nowhere in the natural realm does this even occur.

00:21:51.000 Oh, a front kick doesn't send her back. 1.00

00:21:54.000 With female badass and superheroes, I get it. 1.00

00:21:57.000 Wonder Woman, okay. 0.66

00:21:57.000 It's supernatural. 0.66

00:21:58.000 You can do anything you want with it.

00:22:00.000 But just like secret agents, the whole kind of female James Bond, the female John Wick thing, it is unbelievable.

00:22:06.000 And that's why you have to suspend the laws of all physics to make it seem like they could win a fight.

00:22:10.000 Is it me?

00:22:11.000 Or is that a garden hose around her shoulder there? 1.00

00:22:13.000 What is she doing?

00:22:13.000 I feel like there was a meeting that I wasn't there for where we're all supposed to act as though, in the right circumstance, women can be as tough as men.

00:22:19.000 You should have to go to the right Japanese guy hidden in the mountains of some crazy mountain. 1.00

00:22:23.000 And that guy will teach you the tricks to kick ass everywhere you go. 0.99

00:22:27.000 No, what you have to do is you have to run and stand in front of her and count to three before you actually do anything and let her hit you. 0.99

00:22:32.000 Are you serious?

00:22:33.000 What is he waiting on?

00:22:34.000 I know I'm going to get flack for this because Courtney got a bunch of flack when she wrote this article. 1.00

00:22:39.000 Okay, let me show you two clips here that I watched.

00:22:42.000 The truth is, I know that films are supposed to suspend reality, but not when the filmmakers go out and say, this shows that women can be badass. 1.00

00:22:48.000 This shows that women can be just as tough as guys. 0.95

00:22:50.000 That's the cell.

00:22:51.000 That's the feminist cell. 1.00

00:22:52.000 I want to show you two clips where I couldn't stop myself from laughing so hard.

00:22:56.000 It just removed me from it.

00:22:57.000 That's why I can't watch this film.

00:22:58.000 Let's see these two instances, and I'll give you a play-by-play.

00:23:02.000 Okay, front kick, that's the second time she sends a guy flying with a front kick. 1.00

00:23:05.000 That doesn't happen.

00:23:07.000 Okay, and here, this is my favorite.

00:23:08.000 Look. 0.96

00:23:10.000 She takes out trained killers by hitting them with an empty high heel. 1.00

00:23:18.000 When I first watched it, I said, oh, it must be a heel with a blade like Austin Powers.

00:23:21.000 No.

00:23:23.000 Whacking him with a shoe like an old lady who's being mugged in Central Park. 0.88

00:23:27.000 Okay. 0.93

00:23:28.000 The first one, where she's hitting with a heel. 1.00

00:23:30.000 Just to prove to you how unrealistic this is.

00:23:34.000 And I don't believe me.

00:23:35.000 The symbolism of the female empowerment, the high heel, the feminine, combined with the badassery, is not lost on me.

00:23:42.000 I allowed Nakejir to hit me as hard as humanly possible with his high heel. 1.00

00:23:45.000 Watch it.

00:23:46.000 Okay, exact same scenario, but we removed the headrest here so he might even be able to generate more force.

00:23:52.000 Jared holding the stiletto the exact same way, clearly stronger than a woman. 1.00

00:23:56.000 Life and death struggle.

00:23:58.000 Would this stop me?

00:23:59.000 Go.

00:24:01.000 Go. 1.00

00:24:03.000 Come here, you little s**t. 1.00

00:24:05.000 I love the noise he made. 0.99

00:24:06.000 What are you related to now or something?

00:24:08.000 For those who can't see, I'm not saying that it's pleasant. 0.99

00:24:11.000 But you would still kill him. 0.94

00:24:13.000 Yeah, it's unpleasant. 0.99

00:24:14.000 Don't get me wrong.

00:24:15.000 It's unpleasant.

00:24:15.000 But it's like your little sister grabbing your hair.

00:24:17.000 It's like, you know.

00:24:19.000 Stop it. 0.98

00:24:19.000 And then you get her to marry an Islamist who beats her because justice is a dish best served cold. 0.98

00:24:24.000 Then there's the front kick where she front kicks and it sends a guy flying. 1.00

00:24:30.000 That doesn't happen.

00:24:31.000 I'll show you exactly why.

00:24:33.000 Again, I noticed twice we see Charlize Theron defying the laws of physics because she's a strong woman. 1.00

00:24:39.000 Two times she front kicks a guy and he goes flying. 1.00

00:24:41.000 Now I want to clarify, it's possible to send someone flying with a...

00:24:46.000 Push kick or a stomp kick, but to do that you need to be going forward to gain leverage.

00:24:50.000 So we are going to allow Jarrett, again, stronger than a woman, surprising I know, he beat Courtney in the arm wrestling match, we are going to allow him the opportunity to front kick me to the chest as hard as humanly possible, as many times as possible, and I will stand, I won't take a staggered stance to see if he can kick me back.

00:25:06.000 Okay, so Jarrett, face me, lift one leg up for a second, now Edward the sound guy, come back here, go back to back to make sure he's straight.

00:25:15.000 Okay.

00:25:16.000 Now you can put your leg down.

00:25:18.000 Okay?

00:25:19.000 Uh, this should be about my distance.

00:25:20.000 Okay, Edward, your services are no longer required.

00:25:23.000 Now, Jared, I want you to... 0.97

00:25:24.000 You can wind up and kick me in my arms as hard as possible. 0.97

00:25:31.000 Not... 0.98

00:25:31.000 It can't be done. 0.98

00:25:41.000 God! 1.00

00:25:46.000 Damn it! 1.00

00:25:48.000 By the way, don't think that I... He kicked me in the balls first. 1.00

00:25:52.000 I was about to say, he kicked you in the balls in the first time. 0.99

00:25:54.000 It wasn't even close. 0.99

00:25:54.000 The Oaks Clank, that's how Houdini died. 0.99

00:25:56.000 And one more just because...

00:25:59.000 One more.

00:26:01.000 Bonus round, the ultimate female empowerment shot. 1.00

00:26:04.000 Can I, as many female heroes have done in the past, hold a man against a wall against his will with merely my stiletto? 1.00

00:26:11.000 F***. 0.99

00:26:15.000 It didn't take long! 0.99

00:26:17.000 Again, the laws of physics, a front kick will kick you back. 0.95

00:26:21.000 And if you're holding someone, they have a wall!

00:26:25.000 They have all the leverage in the world.

00:26:28.000 What do we see?

00:26:29.000 Charlie's Angels, Dark Knight, I think Scarlett Johansson. 1.00

00:26:33.000 How often do we see that stupid stiletto shot? 1.00

00:26:36.000 I'm sitting there like, he has a wall! 1.00

00:26:39.000 But it looks so good on TV. It just honors the golden rules.

00:26:44.000 Oh my gosh. 0.97

00:26:45.000 It's so silly. 0.91

00:26:46.000 What looks good is Steven in heels. 0.86

00:26:48.000 You know, a part of me thinks that we deserve whatever North Korea has in store for us.

00:26:52.000 We'll be right back.

00:26:53.000 We have Paul Joseph Watson, then Dennis Prager.

00:26:55.000 If even one more of you join my club in support of freedom I will be forced to flex my military might and launch a full-blown missile attack Ha ha ha ha ha Here's a taste of what's to come, Mug Club members. 1.00

00:27:24.000 Keep the change, you filthy American. you filthy American. 1.00

00:27:45.000 Here's a taste of what's to come. 0.99

00:27:59.000 Hey guys, 1%.

00:27:59.000 You heard me talk about this last week.

00:28:02.000 1% in the wake of all the YouTube censorship.

00:28:05.000 You know, Paul Joseph Watson talked about it.

00:28:07.000 It's pretty scary.

00:29:17.000 All right.

00:29:35.000 I think there's a leak.

00:29:36.000 I got water on my forehead.

00:29:38.000 Really?

00:29:39.000 Yeah.

00:29:40.000 No joke.

00:29:40.000 Is that or I'm bleeding from my scalp?

00:29:42.000 I don't know what just happened.

00:29:43.000 That totally interfered with my Street Fighter dance.

00:29:45.000 I have no idea.

00:29:45.000 I have no clue where this came from.

00:29:47.000 Our next guest, you know him, you love him.

00:29:49.000 People are very excited that we have him and Dennis Prager on the same show.

00:29:52.000 What a lineup.

00:29:53.000 You know him on the YouTube's Prison Planet, and you know he's going to be hosting, actually, Alex Jones' show.

00:29:59.000 I believe the show there in Austin.

00:30:01.000 I don't know if he'll be in Austin next week.

00:30:02.000 But as for now, he's still across the pond.

00:30:05.000 Paul Joseph Watson, how are you, sir?

00:30:06.000 Good, Stephen.

00:30:07.000 Thanks for having me back.

00:30:08.000 It's been a while.

00:30:09.000 Thank you.

00:30:10.000 Now, sometimes you look like you just woke up from a nap, or is that just your thing?

00:30:14.000 I think it's the red eyes.

00:30:16.000 I've just got permanently bloodshot eyes from staring at a computer for 16 hours a day, but I get that comment a lot.

00:30:22.000 You and my former Uber driver, he said he had macular degeneration while he was driving me to the airport.

00:30:27.000 He's like, it's fine out here, but it's just like right here, which is what I need to drive, and so I still five-starred him.

00:30:35.000 Because I felt guilty enough.

00:30:37.000 I've made a similar sacrifice.

00:30:39.000 If I look up at a blue sky now, it's just floating black bits in my eye.

00:30:44.000 It's just not going well.

00:30:45.000 It is degenerating in a hurry.

00:30:47.000 Well, that's because you're not supposed to stare at the sun, Paul.

00:30:51.000 So, okay, you've caught some flack and you've caught some support this week.

00:30:54.000 We were talking about this.

00:30:55.000 A lot has developed even today.

00:30:57.000 With Donald Trump, you were obviously a supporter there, obviously against Hillary Clinton.

00:31:01.000 I think everyone was.

00:31:02.000 And you were not thrilled, tell me if I'm mischaracterizing, with his missile strikes in Syria.

00:31:11.000 Well, you know, Stephen, I've been speaking about that issue for about, what is it, six years now since the Syrian civil war started.

00:31:18.000 I couldn't suddenly just come out and say, oh, yeah, I've campaigned against this for six years and said that it would be a terrible idea.

00:31:25.000 Hillary wanted to do it. 0.98

00:31:26.000 Obama nearly did it.

00:31:27.000 There was the big revolt within the military.

00:31:30.000 We don't want to be al-Qaeda's air force.

00:31:32.000 So I can't suddenly just turn around and do a complete 180 and say, now that Trump's doing it, it's perfectly fine and I support it.

00:31:39.000 Which is, a lot of people weren't in that position after this big fallout over the past two weeks because their whole shtick is they support Donald Trump and that's their only pivot point.

00:31:50.000 They can't pivot to any other issue.

00:31:52.000 They can't really talk about any other subject.

00:31:54.000 It's we love Trump, we support Trump, we trust everything he says.

00:31:57.000 So they're in a bind.

00:31:59.000 If he does something that Hillary Clinton literally called for hours before it happened, in the case of the airstrike on Syria, they can't get out of that bind because their entire short-lived internet career over the past, what, 18 months since, you know, the Trump phenomenon arose to prominence is based on supporting Trump and nothing else.

00:32:20.000 Yeah.

00:32:21.000 So I understand why they can't even question him at this point.

00:32:24.000 But, you know...

00:32:25.000 We don't live in North Korea.

00:32:27.000 It's okay to question dear leader.

00:32:29.000 You can still support him and have questions about some of his recent policies, which are causing concern.

00:32:36.000 I think it's totally valid.

00:32:36.000 Right.

00:32:38.000 I agree with you.

00:32:39.000 Even if I don't necessarily, or some people in this room don't necessarily agree with your position on Syria, they agree with the position of consistency.

00:32:46.000 And I will say, you know, that happened with the alt-right, right?

00:32:52.000 It was a witch hunt for anyone who didn't support Donald Trump.

00:32:54.000 I think a lot of people thought you might be in that camp.

00:32:59.000 I know that you weren't, but some people might have falsely thought that.

00:33:02.000 Because the alt-right was, I remember even at one point, I was like, well, you know what?

00:33:04.000 I actually think Ted Cruz is probably more conservative.

00:33:08.000 Let's attack. 0.65

00:33:09.000 Let's flood the dislikes.

00:33:10.000 Let's flood the comment section.

00:33:12.000 And that was good money, right, for a while.

00:33:14.000 If you 100% supported Trump for a while, that was really good money.

00:33:14.000 You and I know this.

00:33:18.000 Having a nuanced view or a balanced or consistent view was not good.

00:33:22.000 I think I see that changing though now because just the anti-establishment angle isn't enough.

00:33:28.000 So have you felt that?

00:33:29.000 Have you felt some other people kind of on your team was like, yeah, I can't support this if I was against it for six years?

00:33:35.000 No, I'm...

00:33:37.000 But aside from people who have talked about Syria for six years, Michael Savage, Ann Coulter, Stefan Molyneux, you know, Rush Limbaugh to a certain extent, all these people have got huge audiences. 0.90

00:33:48.000 They immediately came out and said, this is a ridiculous idea. 0.79

00:33:52.000 What are we doing?

00:33:53.000 Trump literally tweeted about 25 times since 2012, 2013.

00:33:59.000 An intervention in Syria helping the rebels, the jihadist rebels that Hillary Clinton and Obama helped to arm and fund.

00:34:05.000 This is going to be a bad idea.

00:34:07.000 Let's not do this.

00:34:08.000 Let's not get involved.

00:34:09.000 So for him to then to turn around and do exactly that, let's not forget that this air base that they supposedly bombed, and, you know, some reports say, oh, we wiped out 20% of their air force.

00:34:20.000 Some reports say half of the missiles didn't even hit.

00:34:23.000 This airbase was about an hour away from a Christian town in northern Hamar that is being besieged by ISIS every single day.

00:34:33.000 And that airbase was used to defend this town against ISIS. So whether it's being taken out or not, if it's not, you know, we have the reports it was up and running a couple of days later.

00:34:42.000 Other reports said it had been taken out.

00:34:44.000 Those Christians in that town were put directly at risk.

00:34:48.000 That normally wouldn't fly with, quote, "conservative Trump supporters," many of whom are pro-life, many of whom are Christians themselves.

00:34:56.000 But again, that wasn't factored into the equation.

00:34:59.000 There was no investigation.

00:35:01.000 A top MIT professor has come out today and said the evidence clearly suggests to him this ordinance, this munition was not dropped from the air, that it was exploded on the You had the white helmets who were aligned with the jihadist rebels going in there, some of them without gloves, without masks, touching these victims.

00:35:21.000 So there were numerous questions.

00:35:23.000 There hasn't been a major investigation.

00:35:25.000 There was an investigation of Ghouta back in 2013.

00:35:28.000 The UN said that the rebels did it.

00:35:30.000 Right.

00:35:30.000 And it later came out, Seymour Hersh said that they mishandled chemical weapons, and that's what set off that explosion.

00:35:37.000 So it's not tinfoil hattery conspiracy theory land to suggest that it might be a false flag, given that all the motivation for pulling it off lies with the rebels.

00:35:48.000 That's not completely- Well, here would be my question there, then.

00:35:51.000 Who created the false flag?

00:35:53.000 Is that the Trump administration at that point?

00:35:56.000 I mean, if we know that, you know, Putin obviously backs Assad.

00:35:59.000 I've heard this out there.

00:36:00.000 I'm not saying that you're inherently wrong.

00:36:02.000 I don't know that I buy it yet.

00:36:04.000 I think that Donald Trump, regardless, is responding emotionally.

00:36:08.000 And I don't think that's a good thing.

00:36:09.000 I think he's responding emotionally.

00:36:10.000 And I think it's hard to not be emotional.

00:36:12.000 But if it's a false flag, who staged it?

00:36:15.000 What's the answer there?

00:36:16.000 Well, firstly, when you say it's a false flag, the media reacts like, how dare you question this?

00:36:22.000 Look at the dead children.

00:36:23.000 Yeah, that's horrible.

00:36:25.000 We're not saying that people didn't die.

00:36:27.000 We're not saying that this is horrible.

00:36:28.000 We're saying, let's look into it.

00:36:30.000 Who has the motive?

00:36:31.000 Robert Parry came out, big Iran-Contra journalist, award-winning journalist.

00:36:36.000 He's got sources.

00:36:37.000 They're just as reliable as these unnamed sources that we're suddenly told to trust, whereas before when Trump was a Russian agent, they were all lying, but now we have to trust them.

00:36:46.000 But his sources told him that— Yes, at least that went away.

00:36:52.000 That's disappeared.

00:36:53.000 And that is a relief to an extent, because I was sick of talking about it every single day.

00:36:57.000 It was boring as hell.

00:36:59.000 But Robert Perry came out and said that his source said that there was a drone with these chemical weapons on that came from a Saudi-Israeli base in Jordan and that they were responsible.

00:37:09.000 There hasn't been an investigation.

00:37:09.000 But who knows?

00:37:11.000 What we do know is that Del Ponte, the UN investigator, came out in 2013 and said the Ghouta chemical weapons attack Yeah.

00:37:30.000 And, you know, that area where the chemical weapon attack happened, it wasn't a militarily significant area.

00:37:37.000 Like there were no huge concentrations of rebels in that particular area.

00:37:42.000 So it just doesn't make sense.

00:37:44.000 You know, Tillerson came out March 31st, said Assad is part of Syria's future.

00:37:50.000 ISIS was on the run.

00:37:52.000 They're restricted to these few remaining areas.

00:37:54.000 Why on earth would he turn the entire world against him once again by staging this?

00:38:00.000 For no benefit.

00:38:01.000 There wasn't even an offensive going on in that area at the time.

00:38:05.000 It just makes no sense.

00:38:06.000 Okay, so moving – because we don't have a definitive answer to that, right?

00:38:09.000 You're asking questions.

00:38:10.000 But let me ask you this question.

00:38:11.000 As you've talked about being consistent here, do you find it grating that a lot of people who are in this always support Trump cam no matter what, no matter what, no matter what, everything good that happens is Donald Trump?

00:38:21.000 And everything bad that happens is Jared Kushner or Ivanka.

00:38:24.000 Have you noticed that's kind of the new thing?

00:38:25.000 It's like, well, this really, I know Donald didn't want to do it, but this is Kushner.

00:38:30.000 It's his fault.

00:38:31.000 And that's one of those things to me that's just like, you know, kind of like Trump care.

00:38:34.000 They're like, oh, it's Paul Ryan care.

00:38:35.000 Well, listen, Obama didn't draft the bill by himself.

00:38:38.000 We called it Obamacare.

00:38:39.000 You know, the health care bill ultimately rests at the feet of the president.

00:38:42.000 Have you noticed those kind of mental gymnastics as someone who's consistent and does it get your goat?

00:38:48.000 I've noticed it amongst some people, but a lot of them are going further now and just outright supporting Kushner and Ivanka as well.

00:38:55.000 If Trump says it's true, if Trump says it's good, it's good.

00:38:59.000 So they've gone beyond that level now.

00:39:00.000 In fact, there's a guy called Bill Mitchell, who I've been having a back and forth with on Twitter.

00:39:05.000 I debated him.

00:39:06.000 He debated Stefan Molyneux as well.

00:39:08.000 And Trump will tweet a picture of him having a meeting with business leaders in the Oval Office.

00:39:15.000 And Bill Mitchell's response to that is, oh my God, another massive win.

00:39:20.000 And it's a picture of Trump having a meeting with some people.

00:39:25.000 How is that a massive win?

00:39:27.000 Not everything is a massive win.

00:39:29.000 It's just complete. 0.86

00:39:31.000 It's ridiculous. 0.85

00:39:32.000 I don't even know that the Trump election is necessarily a massive win, as we see now. 0.69

00:39:35.000 It was a win, but we went in with some trepidation, and there are a lot of things that he...

00:39:39.000 I think he's had a rough week.

00:39:40.000 To be honest, I don't think he's had a very good week.

00:39:42.000 I think he's had a rough couple of weeks.

00:39:44.000 So let me ask you about this first, and then we'll go back to the Syria deal.

00:39:48.000 How do you feel about this just obviously happened today, the big the mother of all bombs dropped in Afghanistan, you know, since that's on ISIS? Do you have a different view on that?

00:39:59.000 Definitely, unless it comes out that it killed like 200 civilians.

00:40:03.000 But we also had the incident where they bombed, I think it was the Kurds who were fighting ISIS in a different area of Syria.

00:40:10.000 That killed 18 troops who were supposedly on our side.

00:40:14.000 Right.

00:40:14.000 But, you know, in this instance, I'm glad that Trump is dropping bombs on ISIS. And not dropping leaflets like Obama did.

00:40:22.000 You remember that report back a few years ago where they had the trucks with the ISIS allies driving the oil, transporting the oil.

00:40:30.000 And like two hours before, they would drop a leaflet saying, excuse me, this bomb that's coming in two hours might cause environmental damage.

00:40:38.000 And of course, they all got out of the area and no one died.

00:40:41.000 So I'm glad that he's dropping bombs and not leaflets.

00:40:43.000 Actually, you're misreported.

00:40:44.000 They dropped Jehovah's Witnesses who were passing out leaflets.

00:40:47.000 Jehovah's Witnesses.

00:40:48.000 Okay, I give!

00:40:49.000 Uncle!

00:40:50.000 You know, a lot of people don't know that, though.

00:40:52.000 We dropped leaflets in Japan before dropping the A-bomb to let them know.

00:40:56.000 They're saying leaflets.

00:40:58.000 That's one thing that people don't know.

00:40:59.000 Like, there was no warning.

00:40:59.000 There was plenty of warning.

00:41:01.000 So leaflets usually are used to precede the big attack, which never occurred with Barack Obama.

00:41:08.000 Okay, going back to Syria then.

00:41:11.000 Assad is bad. 0.95

00:41:13.000 ISIS is bad. 1.00

00:41:14.000 They're bad people.

00:41:15.000 So disregarding kind of what's more stable for the Middle East, what should the United States do?

00:41:20.000 Because you don't sound like a complete non-interventionist.

00:41:22.000 Do you just think that Syria is not somewhere we should be involved in?

00:41:26.000 Be gone out of there like Acme Coyote leaving a trail of puff of smoke?

00:41:31.000 I think we should help them fight ISIS and get the hell out of there.

00:41:34.000 I mean, look at what happened in Libya.

00:41:36.000 I mean, I did a poll on Twitter, which is, you know, half haters, half supporters at this point, with Trump saying, if you support the intervention in Libya, did you also support Obama's intervention and toppling of Gaddafi?

00:41:49.000 And it was like 25% said they supported both.

00:41:53.000 So there's still a complete inconsistency there.

00:41:56.000 But no, I think we should support ISIS, support Assad rather. 0.76

00:42:01.000 That soundbite's going to be taken out of context.

00:42:03.000 This man says we should support ISIS. Sean Spicer said that they plan to destabilize Syria like three days in a row.

00:42:13.000 He is a moron. 1.00

00:42:14.000 Can we agree on that? 1.00

00:42:14.000 Sean Spicer is just, he is barely walking upright. 1.00

00:42:18.000 He's dumber than a bag of hammers. 1.00

00:42:20.000 That guy has to go. 1.00

00:42:22.000 He is under a hell of a lot of pressure every day, but he has made several errors in recent days.

00:42:29.000 I don't think the whole gassing thing was the biggest one.

00:42:33.000 I think he literally said like three times, our goal is to destabilize Serie.

00:42:37.000 Nobody really picked him up on it.

00:42:38.000 But no, I think it's a complete disaster.

00:42:40.000 The intervention in Libya directly caused the migrant crisis.

00:42:44.000 It fed into Syria.

00:42:45.000 No, we should stay the hell out of there every opportunity we get, unless it's a direct threat to, you know, America or Britain.

00:42:52.000 I mean, that's I've had that line consistently my entire adult life.

00:42:57.000 So why would I change it now?

00:42:59.000 Right.

00:43:00.000 Trump is not Kim Jong-un.

00:43:01.000 It's not a cult of personality.

00:43:03.000 It's OK to question his decisions and who he is being advised by.

00:43:08.000 Yeah, I agree with you.

00:43:09.000 And we had a conversation where I was more non-interventionist and Gerald thought it was time to go in.

00:43:15.000 And we even had disagreements in this room.

00:43:16.000 And I think that those are healthy.

00:43:18.000 Final question.

00:43:19.000 What about the freaky little Muppet over there in North Korea?

00:43:21.000 So, you know, he's saying that they have capabilities.

00:43:25.000 Obviously, they have 10 times the sort of nuclear or chemical arsenal that they used to have.

00:43:30.000 They don't have the missile.

00:43:32.000 We don't know because we have no intel there because it's a security state.

00:43:35.000 But if they keep acting up and they keep talking about, you know, taking out a lot of people, not only the United States, but at the very least, they could do South Korea and some military bases.

00:43:45.000 It's an interesting question because I know you're more in the school of Rand Paul with that.

00:43:49.000 At what point does the United States get involved with a spot like North Korea who's becoming more of a thorn in the side of the free world? 0.97

00:43:57.000 Well, as far as I understand it, he doesn't yet have the capability to strike the U.S. I mean, if he was literally shooting up missiles, which they can still shoot down at this point as far as I understand it, then yeah, it's a very different situation.

00:44:10.000 What most people don't take into account is if There was an attack on a North Korean nuclear reactor or even just shooting down one of their ballistic missiles.

00:44:19.000 They would probably start something with South Korea.

00:44:23.000 I mean, they sunk a South Korean ship, what, back in 2010 and killed like 50 people.

00:44:29.000 South Korea sat back and did nothing.

00:44:30.000 I think they did it in 2016.

00:44:32.000 It was even more recent, I think.

00:44:33.000 But yeah.

00:44:34.000 Yeah.

00:44:35.000 But I mean, he probably will just go into South Korea and it will start a conflict that will kill millions of people.

00:44:42.000 I mean, that's what most of the experts say.

00:44:45.000 So I think you need to be very careful about it.

00:44:47.000 The good news is that China's come out and seems to be, you know, more accommodating of doing something about it themselves.

00:44:55.000 They've turned back the, I think it was the coal that they were taking from North Korea.

00:44:59.000 So But, I mean, it's a difficult situation.

00:45:01.000 It's very different from Syria because you have a population where it is almost, to make that comparison, it is almost Hitler, Nazi Germany-like. 0.97

00:45:11.000 In fact, it's worse in some aspects. 0.99

00:45:13.000 North Koreans are terrible. 1.00

00:45:14.000 If you look at the way they treat prisoners, they really are awful, very comparable to Nazis. 0.99

00:45:19.000 200,000 people in concentration camps, political dissidents.

00:45:22.000 Yeah.

00:45:23.000 Women get pregnant. 1.00

00:45:24.000 The gods will literally stamp the baby to death while it's still inside the womb. 0.98

00:45:30.000 Absolutely abysmal.

00:45:31.000 I think there's a documentary called Camp Zone 14, which explains it.

00:45:36.000 And, you know, these aren't biased reports.

00:45:38.000 These are established.

00:45:39.000 People have escaped to China.

00:45:40.000 They've escaped to the West.

00:45:41.000 They're all telling the same story.

00:45:43.000 So it's very difficult.

00:45:45.000 Although, you know, Assad is a dictator and a strongman, the absolute torture and terror that's going on in North Korea...

00:45:51.000 I would support an uprising from the North Korean people, but it's never going to happen because they're completely brainwashed and they're starved. 1.00

00:45:59.000 They spend all the money on the military.

00:46:01.000 They spend a lot of it on Kim Jong himself.

00:46:04.000 He doesn't look like he's missed a meal in a while.

00:46:07.000 Yeah.

00:46:07.000 It's like you could line up every North Korean, and just from—you could have a mild view.

00:46:14.000 You'd be able to say, that's Kim Jong.

00:46:15.000 Right away, because he's the only one.

00:46:18.000 Oh, gosh, we don't have a ton of time.

00:46:20.000 We have Dennis Prager coming up next.

00:46:21.000 Paul Joseph Watson, where can people best find you, or do you have any closing thoughts?

00:46:25.000 I don't want to cut you off.

00:46:27.000 They can find me on YouTube.

00:46:29.000 Just search for my name or Twitter at Prison Planet.

00:46:32.000 The only other thing is the YouTube issue, which we didn't get to touch upon, but that's a big deal right now.

00:46:38.000 It doesn't really affect me with the demonetization because I don't make money off of it.

00:46:42.000 But it's clearly the fact that the mainstream media is losing its audience.

00:46:46.000 You know, like Fox News' average viewer is 68.

00:46:49.000 CNN's average viewer is 61.

00:46:52.000 59, sorry.

00:46:53.000 So, I mean, that's why they're extremely worried about it.

00:46:56.000 And the right is dominating YouTube.

00:46:58.000 I said that on Twitter.

00:46:59.000 They all laughed at me.

00:47:01.000 Then Vice came out and said, no, he's actually right.

00:47:04.000 Conservatives are dominating YouTube.

00:47:06.000 That's what they're concerned about.

00:47:07.000 They're concerned about PewDiePie having 54 million subscribers and not being controlled by a media conglomerate.

00:47:14.000 You know, he gets three, four million views a day.

00:47:16.000 That's almost equal as Bill Reilly.

00:47:18.000 That's why they're concerned about it.

00:47:20.000 That's why they're pulling out the advertising Yeah, well, you know, I'd love to have you back to talk about that specifically.

00:47:24.000 We've had people discuss that.

00:47:26.000 I just knew that you had an interesting take on Syria.

00:47:29.000 But yeah, I think a lot of people aren't necessarily aware.

00:47:31.000 Karen Strong will be on.

00:47:32.000 She had a good take on that.

00:47:33.000 YouTube's capital is their viewers.

00:47:35.000 They've lost money, but now mainstream media wants access to the capital.

00:47:39.000 And so the best way to do it is to force out the people who beat them consistently in online content.

00:47:44.000 If that happens, I think it'll cannibalize itself.

00:47:47.000 So I do think long-term, YouTube will probably have a rebalancing of itself.

00:47:50.000 But let's have you back soon, if we can.

00:47:52.000 If you're ever stateside, too, let's have you back and talk about the YouTube thing.

00:47:55.000 Paul Joseph Watson, follow him on YouTube, even though they're demonetizing him.

00:47:59.000 And we'll be back.

00:48:00.000 Dennis Prager.

00:48:00.000 Ooh, dense regular.

00:48:02.000 We are standing by.

00:48:04.000 To the well.

00:48:06.000 We are standing by.

00:48:08.000 Do not listen to Steven Crowder and Join Mug Club to fight back against YouTube censorship.

00:48:22.000 I've been working with YouTube for a long time, and resistance is futile.

00:48:26.000 And if you depend on your American government to save you, they have to find me first.

00:48:32.000 Ha ha ha ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

00:48:37.000 All right.

00:49:07.000 We're getting interpretive dance here.

00:49:09.000 Our next guest, I'm thrilled, thrilled to have our next guest.

00:49:11.000 I've wanted to have him on for a while.

00:49:13.000 I am a longtime listener, nationally syndicated radio host, and of course the creator, the founder of the feast of PragerUniversity.com.

00:49:20.000 Dennis Prager, thank you for being here, sir.

00:49:20.000 Mr.

00:49:22.000 Sir, it is good to be with you and you made one of our videos.

00:49:26.000 This is true.

00:49:27.000 I did.

00:49:27.000 I made one of your videos over there and I believe it was about democratic socialism and was surprised as to how well it did because it's generally not a super entertaining topic, the democratic socialism.

00:49:40.000 But you were entertaining.

00:49:42.000 We make it entertaining.

00:49:43.000 And we do have a huge built-in base.

00:49:46.000 So it's a good combination.

00:49:47.000 You do.

00:49:48.000 It is remarkable.

00:49:49.000 And I think a lot of people out there, a lot of younger people now know who you are.

00:49:52.000 I think they don't necessarily know, though, that you are almost single-handedly responsible for really introducing a lot of people like Christine Hoff Summers to the more conservative sphere.

00:50:02.000 You know, Prager University was a big platform for her.

00:50:05.000 I know you've worked with Adam Carolla.

00:50:07.000 So you've managed to bridge some of those divides that a lot of sort of cable news talking heads or AM radio hosts just haven't.

00:50:14.000 And I'll tell you from my perspective as a longtime listener, I've always loved that you do like the male-female hours, one that I really like, the ultimate issues hour.

00:50:22.000 Explain to people who don't know, think of AM radio as all Republican and Democrat politics, but you're one of the only hosts I can think of who gets into, listen, you need to fundamentally think about issue A, B, and C to know where you line up.

00:50:36.000 And I think that's lost a lot.

00:50:37.000 Yeah.

00:50:38.000 Well, that's really the reason or the biggest reason for 35 years of radio.

00:50:43.000 I think I'm the longest continuous radio show in the U.S. right now.

00:50:47.000 And it's not a boast.

00:50:49.000 I mean, it sounds boastful, but it's not meant to be a boast.

00:50:51.000 Slightly, but it's okay.

00:50:52.000 It's meant to make your point.

00:50:54.000 And that is, if all I did was news, I would not have had the success.

00:51:01.000 The truth is, if I had my choice, I would do very little news and I would only do tremendous issues.

00:51:09.000 See, I'm as interested in, you said the male-female hour. 0.98

00:51:13.000 I'm as interested in how men and women relate and the differences between men and women as I am in anything going on in the world today.

00:51:23.000 So, because ultimately, that's the stuff that determines things.

00:51:29.000 See, you said the ultimate issue's our...

00:51:31.000 Love it.

00:51:32.000 Here's just one example.

00:51:34.000 Okay.

00:51:35.000 I realized in my first year of radio...

00:51:38.000 That the great divide between liberals and conservatives, and they didn't know it.

00:51:43.000 That's what was so fascinating.

00:51:45.000 Liberals didn't know it, and conservatives didn't know it.

00:51:48.000 I mean, some did, obviously.

00:51:49.000 But the great divide was over this question.

00:51:53.000 Do you think people are basically good?

00:51:56.000 Because if you think people are basically good, then if a person rapes, murders, Right.

00:52:09.000 Right.

00:52:11.000 poverty, racism.

00:52:12.000 But if you don't believe people are basically good, then you say, well, wait a minute, you're responsible, not society.

00:52:20.000 And that's the difference in a nutshell, You can almost trace every difference between conservative and liberal views just to that question.

00:52:29.000 That's why Ultimate Issues Hour is so big.

00:52:32.000 It is.

00:52:32.000 And, you know, we talk about that a lot on this show where we go macro on a lot of topics.

00:52:36.000 For example, we were just talking yesterday about how capitalism, free enterprise, similar to your fundamental question, but we were discussing economics earlier.

00:52:44.000 A free enterprise can only work under a system where people are optimistic.

00:52:48.000 Communism can only work under pessimism and greed.

00:52:51.000 I mean, this idea that if you're greedy in a capitalist system, great.

00:52:54.000 You still don't get free stuff.

00:52:55.000 You still have to do something for it, right?

00:52:57.000 And that question, too, are people fundamentally good or bad?

00:53:00.000 That also goes back to, gosh, I have not had enough to drink to discuss this.

00:53:04.000 Back to spirituality and obviously kind of how people are created and whose image.

00:53:09.000 Let me ask you about this because during the election too, obviously you had to discuss politics, but you talked about how, and ultimately you supported Donald Trump against Hillary, as I think everyone did, but you talked about how it was concerning that it seemed as though he often hadn't really considered some of these fundamental issues.

00:53:25.000 And I felt that way too.

00:53:26.000 For example, you know, issues like abortion or things.

00:53:28.000 Well, how do you be 72 and switch your opinion within six months?

00:53:33.000 Well, the truth here was my evolution.

00:53:36.000 I was adamantly opposed to him from the outset, and I wrote column after column in National Review.

00:53:45.000 I have a syndicated column, and that's one of the places that carried it in Town Hall.

00:53:50.000 But I said from my first column...

00:53:52.000 If he's nominated, I will support him.

00:53:56.000 Oh, wait, real quick.

00:53:57.000 I wasn't saying you changed your opinion.

00:53:58.000 I meant Donald Trump changed his opinion on life, pro-abortion to pro-right.

00:54:02.000 No, I'm answering you.

00:54:04.000 Yes, I understood that.

00:54:05.000 Okay, I didn't want you to think I was saying you flip-flopped.

00:54:07.000 No, I'm really backing up your point.

00:54:10.000 Okay, good.

00:54:11.000 That it was clear to me or it seemed to me he had not thought through any of these what we call ultimate issues.

00:54:18.000 So that was, you know, reason number 47 why I found him troubling.

00:54:23.000 I didn't believe he was a conservative.

00:54:26.000 I mean, I had a hundred good reasons, but...

00:54:29.000 No matter who the Republican is, it's better than a Democrat.

00:54:34.000 People don't understand the threat that the left poses to Western civilization.

00:54:40.000 That's my message.

00:54:42.000 The left is a greater, ultimately, is a more lethal threat to the West than ISIS is.

00:54:50.000 You know, I think a lot of people would agree with you.

00:54:52.000 And, you know, something, too, I remember back when Perez Hilton, there was the Miss America scandal, and you went on CNN to debate Perez, not debate, but talk with Perez Hilton about, was it Cary Prejean who mentioned marriage?

00:55:04.000 And it was a huge thing back then.

00:55:06.000 Yeah.

00:55:06.000 And I remember watching you on CNN with Perez Hilton and you were so thoughtful and you were so articulate and Perez Hilton just kind of screeched.

00:55:13.000 And ever back then, you know, the reaction was split among people my age.

00:55:17.000 Oh, yeah, I think Perez Hilton really got the better of him.

00:55:20.000 But today that's fundamentally shifted where I've noticed millennials are actually listening to what people have to say.

00:55:26.000 And I think a big reason why you've actually become really popular in a lot of our circles, for example, extending the male female hour.

00:55:32.000 Third-wave feminism, right? 1.00

00:55:34.000 That's become such a cancer to young men that someone who speaks honestly about, you know, biological sexual differences is almost—you're almost a trailblazer now.

00:55:43.000 Traditionalism is almost rebellious.

00:55:47.000 That's fascinating to hear.

00:55:49.000 This is very important for me to hear what you're saying.

00:55:53.000 See, I have this bizarre belief that truth— Is awesome in every generation.

00:56:02.000 You know, when I talk about male-female differences, you know, just a simple one, all right? 0.99

00:56:08.000 Men are infinitely more visually stimulated sexually than women are, right? 0.75

00:56:14.000 I mean, there are no ads featuring men's legs. 0.98

00:56:18.000 Let me think.

00:56:20.000 Okay, Jared, didn't you pull a couple of those in Sweden at one point?

00:56:23.000 But that was in a very specific neighborhood and bar.

00:56:25.000 It was a small circulation.

00:56:26.000 Okay.

00:56:26.000 All right.

00:56:28.000 No, no.

00:56:28.000 Even that's fine.

00:56:30.000 Even for gays, men's legs are great. 1.00

00:56:33.000 Gay men prove my point. 1.00

00:56:35.000 Yes. 0.99

00:56:36.000 They are stimulated looking at good-looking men as I am looking at good-looking women.

00:56:41.000 Right.

00:56:41.000 But it's not true for lesbians, and it's not true for heterosexual women.

00:56:48.000 A hundred other things stimulate them, but the visual is not the same in any shape or form.

00:56:55.000 Anyway, my point is that it's almost like, you know, I've lived long enough to see wide ties in fashion, narrow ties in fashion.

00:57:06.000 So what I do is I keep the last one that went out of fashion, then I wait about 20 years, and they're in fashion.

00:57:14.000 And I saved a bundle of money.

00:57:16.000 There you go.

00:57:18.000 It's like ideas.

00:57:19.000 They're just good ideas are gonna come back.

00:57:22.000 There you go.

00:57:23.000 Dennis Prager has a rack full of bell bottoms and skinny ties in his closet.

00:57:27.000 That's right.

00:57:28.000 And that's also something that's interesting.

00:57:30.000 If you even look at fashion, you know, that's something I've studied sort of as it relates to human sexuality.

00:57:33.000 We had this ultra feminine era in the 70s, right? 1.00

00:57:36.000 It made men look like women, bell bottoms, narrow shoulders, tight tops. 0.99

00:57:40.000 And then the 80s were a rejection of it, where women looked masculine with shoulder pads. 0.76

00:57:44.000 And it's just, it's something that I think a lot of people overlooked and Particularly in the era of feminism where it went unquestioned.

00:57:51.000 I mean, in my lifetime, feminism went unquestioned for a good two decades because people were terrified. 0.98

00:57:56.000 And now fewer women identify as feminists than ever. 1.00

00:58:00.000 And I think a big part of it is because of people like Christine Hoff Summers and the work that you do.

00:58:04.000 Have you gotten a lot of feedback on that from millennials or Generation Z, particularly feminism? 0.96

00:58:09.000 Well, do you know, this is mind-boggling.

00:58:11.000 This year we'll have 350 million views, which is enormous.

00:58:16.000 It's beyond belief to me, frankly.

00:58:17.000 That's huge.

00:58:18.000 Huge.

00:58:20.000 And do you know that according to Facebook and YouTube, the biggest single segment is under 35 years of age?

00:58:26.000 Yeah.

00:58:26.000 Well, that's us too.

00:58:28.000 The average viewer is a 28-year-old male.

00:58:30.000 And since you work with Prager University, we've noticed a huge shift in the last, I'd say, two years, where things that we would say at one point, even Bernie Sanders is a great example.

00:58:39.000 Pre-election, anything critical of Bernie Sanders, like democratic socialism, we would still be excoriated online.

00:58:46.000 People were furious.

00:58:46.000 And absolutely.

00:58:47.000 After the election, since Bernie Sanders has tipped his hand and he's trans this and Black Lives Matter that and 1% this, we've seen those older videos skyrocket in views and people like it versus dislike with Bernie Sanders.

00:58:59.000 In the last six months, there's been a shift.

00:59:02.000 Do you think a big part of that is President Trump sort of breaking down the ideas of political correctness or do you just think it's a symptom of culture at large more where they're tired of it?

00:59:12.000 Oh, I think it's both.

00:59:13.000 It doesn't work.

00:59:15.000 Here's another, we do have a few, we on the right, we do have a few advantages.

00:59:21.000 One of them is, it's a secret, but every poll reveals this, we're happier.

00:59:27.000 It's true.

00:59:28.000 It is true.

00:59:29.000 How could it not be true? 0.99

00:59:31.000 If you're a black and you think every white is out to screw you, how can you be happy? 0.99

00:59:39.000 If you're a Jew and you think every non-Jew is a latent anti-Semite, how are you going to be happy? 0.99

00:59:44.000 If you're a woman and you think every man is a misogynist, how are you going to be happy?

00:59:50.000 But if you have a more realistic view of mankind, and in America in particular, where in fact the vast majority of whites only want blacks to do well, the vast majority of men love women, don't hate women, The vast majority of non-Jews, I can tell you as a Jew, who has written a major book on anti-Semitism, that in all of the 4,000 years of Jewish history, Jews have lived the best in the United States of America.

01:00:18.000 Most honored, most respected, least anti-Semitism.

01:00:22.000 But this stuff now about this anti-Semitism that came in with Trump, it was all a lie.

01:00:28.000 The calls into Jewish community centers, You know, hundreds of Jewish community senators got calls.

01:00:35.000 There were two guys responsible.

01:00:37.000 One was a black radical, and one, the overwhelming responsibility, was a Jewish kid in Israel. 0.99

01:00:43.000 A nut. 0.99

01:00:44.000 Right, yeah, I know, exactly. 0.92

01:00:46.000 A self-loathing nutbag would be more of a term there.

01:00:49.000 That's fair.

01:00:50.000 And you also say, you also do the happiness hour.

01:00:52.000 I think a lot of people don't know this.

01:00:53.000 You talk about how it's your moral obligation to be happy.

01:00:57.000 And that, to me, stuck with me.

01:00:59.000 I am very touched, really, I am, that you, you know, I have great respect for you, that you have taken a lot of this stuff so seriously.

01:01:08.000 That's my, I've written a book on happiness, I do this show every week for 18 years now, every week.

01:01:15.000 But that's the biggest theme of mine, that happiness is a moral obligation and not just a psychological or emotional state.

01:01:26.000 I owe it to everyone in my life, my wife, my kids, my parents, my colleagues at work, the guy in the elevator next to me, the guy sitting next to me on an airplane, I owe to every one of them to have a cheerful demeanor.

01:01:40.000 It is a moral obligation.

01:01:42.000 And do you know that is the toughest speech for high school kids to hear that I give?

01:01:47.000 That your feelings should not determine how you behave.

01:01:52.000 They have never been taught that.

01:01:54.000 That and we're putting the porn lock on your laptop. 0.98

01:01:56.000 That is a really rough conversation with a 14-year-old.

01:02:00.000 But how do you, if some people say, well, first off, I think that comes from a biblical perspective, right, of love, that love is an action.

01:02:07.000 Love isn't an emotion.

01:02:07.000 It's how you act toward people.

01:02:09.000 What do you say when young people say, well, what if I'm just having a really rough go and they legitimately are, you know, they've been dealt a bad hand and they're miserable?

01:02:18.000 How do they, quote unquote, act, you know, happy?

01:02:22.000 Uh, the, if I said to them, I have a lot of answers.

01:02:26.000 One, if I said to them, I'll tell you what, no matter how lousy it is, if I gave you a thousand dollars a day to act cheerful, you think you could do it?

01:02:38.000 Of course they could.

01:02:39.000 It's not an issue.

01:02:40.000 Uh, it's, uh, people, uh, People don't realize this is argument number two.

01:02:48.000 They're not alone.

01:02:50.000 They think, the unhappy, think that those who walk around acting happy have life easier than they do.

01:03:00.000 Hello?

01:03:00.000 Not true.

01:03:01.000 We all have a tough life.

01:03:04.000 All of us.

01:03:05.000 And you know what?

01:03:06.000 That was really a tough thing for me in the stand-up community because there's this idea of, oh, I'm this miserable, conflicted comic, and I'm addicted to mescaline, and I'm on my eighth wife, and oh, but I'm so conflicted it's because I'm an intellectual. 1.00

01:03:19.000 And we're just like, no, you're just kind of an ass. 1.00

01:03:22.000 At a certain point, you're just a jerk. 1.00

01:03:24.000 At some point, it's you. 1.00

01:03:25.000 And that's become really popular, the neurotic narcissism in comedy.

01:03:30.000 And that's what it is.

01:03:31.000 Being perpetually unhappy is ultimately narcissism.

01:03:34.000 Well, going back to the, unfortunately, the political, if you will, I believe at the heart of leftism is narcissism.

01:03:42.000 How I feel is all that matters.

01:03:45.000 That's what they said on Yale to those professors that they got rid of.

01:03:49.000 Hey, how I feel is all that matters.

01:03:53.000 So there's no objective truth.

01:03:55.000 Is really?

01:03:57.000 Is Yale racist?

01:03:58.000 Give me a break. 0.97

01:04:00.000 Almost the phrase sounds silly when you say it out loud. 0.92

01:04:03.000 Is Yale racist? 0.97

01:04:04.000 But they are saying, Yale is racist.

01:04:07.000 So it's almost you can't write the parody sometimes. 0.91

01:04:11.000 I mean, you have transgender, lesbian, feminist Americans supporting Sharia. 0.80

01:04:19.000 You can't write that kind of comedy. 0.94

01:04:20.000 I know.

01:04:20.000 That's brilliant.

01:04:22.000 Actually, I've often said on my radio show, folks, I can't think of an analogy because they've already outdone it in absurdity.

01:04:32.000 The people for the ethical treatment of animals just announced that white milk Milk is white privilege.

01:04:42.000 Milk is an aspect of white privilege.

01:04:46.000 I know.

01:04:47.000 We always say the joke is it's the kind of crazy that has Freud rolling over in his grave looking for a cabinet saying, I don't even know if we have to file this.

01:04:55.000 These people are absolutely out of their mind.

01:04:58.000 Mr.

01:04:58.000 Dennis Brager, again, where's the best place for people to find you?

01:05:03.000 Well, PragerUniversity.com, DennisPrager.com.

01:05:06.000 Just Google me and they'll have about a year's worth of reading and stuff.

01:05:10.000 And of course, look me up.

01:05:13.000 I'm probably on in your city on my radio show.

01:05:16.000 That's true.

01:05:16.000 Or the app, Dennis Prager app.

01:05:18.000 They can listen to me anytime they want.

01:05:20.000 There's so much.

01:05:21.000 He does everything except come out and smash a watermelon with a mallet.

01:05:23.000 I highly, highly recommend reading his books, listening to his show.

01:05:27.000 It's played a huge role in shaping how I view the world, and I know Naka Jared feels the same way.

01:05:32.000 Absolutely.

01:05:33.000 Mr.

01:05:33.000 Dennis Prager, thank you so much.

01:05:34.000 We have to have you back, sir.

01:05:35.000 Please come back.

01:05:37.000 We'll be back.

01:05:38.000 Wait, hold on.

01:05:38.000 There's music.

01:05:39.000 What?

01:06:15.000 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

01:06:16.000 And you know I will.

01:06:19.000 Ha ha ha ha.

01:06:49.000 Robots apparently love this.

01:06:50.000 I don't know when that happened with a robot, but apparently robots, this is a function that's patterned into all of them.

01:06:55.000 I think so.

01:06:56.000 No robot I've ever met has gotten a memo about that, by the way.

01:06:58.000 I don't know.

01:06:59.000 I don't know.

01:06:59.000 Only the people...

01:07:01.000 No robot I ever know has done this or moonwalked either.

01:07:05.000 Disappointing robots.

01:07:05.000 But it has a Samsung Galaxy explode on me.

01:07:08.000 Thank you so much to our guests.

01:07:09.000 I really appreciate it.

01:07:10.000 You know, I think that actually having Paul Joseph Watson on and Dennis Prager created...

01:07:13.000 It made me think about something interesting.

01:07:15.000 First off, I appreciate that Paul Joseph Watson is consistent.

01:07:17.000 Even if I don't agree with him on everything...

01:07:19.000 It's a rarity.

01:07:20.000 It's a rarity.

01:07:21.000 I mean, he was against what's going on in the Middle East before Donald Trump, and he's still against it, even though he runs in the same circles of people who sit at the throne of Lord Trump.

01:07:30.000 And I think I'm split on what Donald...

01:07:32.000 He's done some good things.

01:07:33.000 He's done some bad health care.

01:07:34.000 Bad.

01:07:35.000 I think...

01:07:37.000 His emotional sort of reactionary approach to foreign policy, bad.

01:07:42.000 I don't necessarily know that I'm entirely against the Syria strike.

01:07:46.000 Gerald made some convincing arguments earlier this week, but I do think it's remarkably inconsistent with what he said he thought about Syria.

01:07:55.000 But he talked about that, and he talked about how it was amazing, these people who are just cheerleaders for Donald Trump no matter what.

01:08:01.000 And then we spoke with Dennis Prager, who talked about the Ultimate Issues Hour.

01:08:05.000 And he brought up a fundamental question, you know, do you believe that people are ultimately all good or do you believe that people are ultimately all bad or at least capable of bad, capable of evil?

01:08:13.000 That'll shape your worldview.

01:08:15.000 And I think you see that with Paul Joseph Watson.

01:08:17.000 You see that in the first stuff before the election with Trump, and you certainly see it in an era post-Trump.

01:08:23.000 If you don't just take time out of your day, and I wasn't just kissing rear there for Dennis Prager.

01:08:29.000 A big part in shaping my worldview, Dennis Prager, Thomas Sowell, John Stossel, funnily enough, because I was a kid and I watched when I was really young, 2020, and I read his biography really, really young and learned about him being a libertarian.

01:08:42.000 We didn't have Fox News.

01:08:44.000 We didn't have AM radio unless we pirated it from Plattsburgh, New York.

01:08:47.000 And for some reason, Dennis Prager was one who we were able to hear.

01:08:52.000 I don't know exactly what it was.

01:08:54.000 I remember Laura Ingram, early on Glenn Beck, and I think Dennis Prager, and Bill O'Reilly used to have a radio show.

01:08:59.000 But the point is, we didn't have kind of the talking head echo chamber that you have here in the United States.

01:09:05.000 In some ways, that's created a different point of view, I think, for myself.

01:09:09.000 And I think even for people like Not Gay Jared, who wasn't really super politically oriented before this program.

01:09:15.000 And as Dennis Prager was saying, my views were shaped by having conversations at the dinner table and every day just sitting, and I hate to use the word meditate because it sounds like tantric, you know, yogi, new age, where people are like, I meditate and find my center.

01:09:29.000 But meditate on an idea that day or a thought or try and figure out what do I believe with this issue.

01:09:34.000 And if you don't do that, and if you don't, I mean, quite literally take time out of every day, pick a fundamental issue, pick the issue of life, pick the issue of national security, pick the issue of constitutionalism, pick a serious, pick the issue of gender fluidity, or, you know, versus masculine and feminine sort of complementarianism.

01:09:59.000 Pick an issue, pick five-point Calvinism, but every day, pick one, and just...

01:10:04.000 Go through, just cycle it through.

01:10:06.000 Why do you believe what you believe?

01:10:07.000 The Socratic method that we talked about, it's unbelievably useful.

01:10:10.000 Just continually ask questions, because if you don't ask questions in your downtime to yourself about these issues, you're going to be asking them publicly, because you're not going to know.

01:10:18.000 It doesn't mean you need to know everything about every issue, but it means that you need to know what you think about that issue.

01:10:25.000 You need to know what worldview you have, what values you have.

01:10:29.000 And if you don't, you end up with what Paul Joseph Watson was talking about, the cult of personality.

01:10:34.000 And the danger with a cult of personality, sometimes it can be a good person, but sometimes it can be a horrible person.

01:10:40.000 And the worst case scenario, sometimes it can be a good person who turns into a bad person.

01:10:45.000 Because that occurs.

01:10:46.000 There is nothing more corrosive to the human soul, in my experience, than success.

01:10:51.000 I have seen people...

01:10:52.000 I've had friends.

01:10:53.000 I've had people who've been on this show.

01:10:55.000 You know this.

01:10:56.000 People who we've talked with.

01:10:58.000 People who we've watched their star rise become absolute monsters.

01:11:03.000 I've had friends who I knew very young growing up who became very successful actors who've since already crashed and burned.

01:11:11.000 And...

01:11:13.000 That's success for a lot of people.

01:11:15.000 And it's success combined with not having taken the time to establish what it is that they believe.

01:11:21.000 And I know some people try and stay away from that because, oh, that's ideology.

01:11:24.000 We hear that all the time.

01:11:25.000 I don't believe in ideology.

01:11:25.000 I'm not an ideologue.

01:11:26.000 I take it issue to issue.

01:11:27.000 No, you don't.

01:11:28.000 You don't.

01:11:29.000 Because if you look at each issue individually, you will find that you consistently line up with either one side of the political or cultural spectrum more than the other.

01:11:39.000 That's why most people say, well, I'm a classical liberal, but I feel myself leaning more towards the right wing now.

01:11:45.000 The very fact that you feel the need to issue a caveat means that you know you've aligned consistently with one side.

01:11:51.000 And that's because, whether you want to acknowledge it or not, you have a worldview.

01:11:54.000 Everyone does.

01:11:55.000 Doesn't mean that you're an ideologue who's locked in your way where you cannot be flexible.

01:12:00.000 Flexibility, intellectual flexibility is a virtue.

01:12:03.000 Absolutely.

01:12:05.000 But it is not a virtue greater than consistency and being principled.

01:12:11.000 And furthermore, being able to argue why you believe that you're principled.

01:12:15.000 And that is one thing that Dennis Prager talked about really stuck with me and it's part of my daily routine.

01:12:22.000 And so I would recommend people going out there this week, just try it.

01:12:25.000 Whatever you do, just like you work on your physical muscles, work on your mental muscle Work on your philosophy muscle.

01:12:32.000 Work on that muscle.

01:12:34.000 Get the reps in consistently.

01:12:36.000 And you'll be surprised after a week, two weeks, six months, how much more, you know, and with how much more clarity you see the world.

01:12:46.000 Doesn't mean that you're not willing to change your opinion.

01:12:48.000 But that means you have to have an opinion to change.

01:12:50.000 As a starting off point, hope all is well.

01:12:52.000 No show Monday for Mug Club members.

01:12:55.000 Easter Monday, we're making it a thing.

01:12:56.000 Plus, no one here has had a weekend in, gosh, I don't know how many weeks.

01:12:59.000 But we'll see you Tuesday.
