Louder with Crowder - #181 LIVE FROM IRELAND! | Louder With Crowder

00:00:00.000 What can I do you for, officer?

00:00:27.000 Right!

00:00:28.000 Do you believe that this, uh, motor vehicle is...

00:00:30.000 fit for highway use?

00:00:33.000 Oh, I think that she's had some miles on her.

00:00:36.000 But she's still good for a few rides yet. 1.00

00:00:38.000 I'm just having a laugh.

00:00:48.000 Ha ha ha ha!

00:00:49.000 Oh, what's this?

00:00:50.000 A, uh, 68!

00:00:52.000 I can tell you're a man who appreciates the classics.

00:00:55.000 Yes, yes, yes.

00:00:57.000 Oh, yes, ID. Very important at the border.

00:01:00.000 ID security.

00:01:02.000 Yes, well, Mr.

00:01:04.000 Edward.

00:01:07.000 Oh, I'd be remiss not to ask, what is your purpose here in England?

00:01:14.000 I have heard from afar the glories of your nightlife, and I intend to paint the town red.

00:01:21.000 Well, that does seem good enough for me.

00:01:30.000 There you go.

00:01:31.000 Be on your merry way.

00:01:32.000 Just, uh, you'll find that here in London we are quite welcoming.

00:01:39.000 That's not the problem.

00:01:40.000 That'd be none of my business for me to judge, because I tell you, that would be very inappropriate of me.

00:01:47.000 Unless there's anything else, you can be on your way.

00:01:50.000 Thank you, officer.

00:01:51.000 You too, Lap.

00:01:53.000 Let him come.

00:02:05.000 Bring Jihadi Bond in. 1.00

00:02:09.000 And I will kill him. 1.00

00:02:11.000 And we're going live in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. 1.00

00:02:35.000 Hello.

00:02:39.000 That's the sound of the weekend.

00:02:40.000 I am your host, Aaron the Intern.

00:02:43.000 I'm hosting now.

00:02:45.000 And producing with me as always in studio is Sound Guy Edward, who is a sound guy.

00:02:52.000 I fulfill my legal obligation.

00:02:54.000 Draw your own conclusions.

00:02:56.000 Are we good?

00:02:56.000 We're good, man.

00:02:58.000 How does it feel to be sitting in the big chair? - I'm here.

00:03:02.000 Feels pretty damn good.

00:03:04.000 Gotta be honest. 1.00

00:03:05.000 It's still warm from Steven's ass. 0.99

00:03:09.000 How does your seat feel over there? 1.00

00:03:12.000 It's a small chair.

00:03:13.000 Small boy.

00:03:15.000 Small boy.

00:03:16.000 Yeah.

00:03:16.000 Just be careful of the aides.

00:03:17.000 That's right.

00:03:18.000 So, we are hosting tonight, and I just feel wrong doing this, you know?

00:03:24.000 I feel like...

00:03:26.000 Why?

00:03:26.000 I mean, why should you?

00:03:28.000 They're not here.

00:03:29.000 They didn't invite us.

00:03:31.000 That's true.

00:03:31.000 But at least we got Hopper.

00:03:32.000 We have the control.

00:03:33.000 Hey, buddy.

00:03:34.000 Hey, Hopper.

00:03:37.000 Hopper?

00:03:38.000 What are you growing, bud?

00:03:41.000 No.

00:03:42.000 Hopper, no.

00:03:43.000 Sit.

00:03:44.000 Sit.

00:03:45.000 Hopper! 0.93

00:03:45.000 No! 0.93

00:03:46.000 Oh! Oh my god!

00:03:47.000 Oh! Oh my god!

00:03:50.000 You're a strange animal. 0.99

00:04:07.000 That's what I know. 1.00

00:04:10.000 You're a strange animal. 0.97

00:04:14.000 I got to fall.

00:04:16.000 It's June, which marks Louder with Crowder's second annual Cultural Appropriation Month.

00:04:26.000 This week, we explore the majestic, beautiful, and surly culture of Ireland. 0.99

00:04:34.000 Music So, this is actually a show live from Ireland.

00:04:54.000 Glad to have you.

00:04:55.000 A big show!

00:04:56.000 This time, actually, live from a pub in Ireland, in Ennis, Ireland, is Jared, who is not gay.

00:05:03.000 Follow him on Twitter at NotGayJared.

00:05:06.000 Meet us with your questions, comments, or your photoshops.

00:05:09.000 Always a photoshops.

00:05:10.000 I have to fill my legalization, start your own conclusions.

00:05:12.000 It's Ireland.

00:05:12.000 Ireland.

00:05:13.000 Ireland.

00:05:14.000 Cultural Appropriation Month.

00:05:14.000 Aye.

00:05:15.000 Because to learn about other cultures...

00:05:18.000 And to appropriate it is to appreciate Irish cultures.

00:05:21.000 By the way, for those wondering, Nokia Jared is dressed as a potato.

00:05:24.000 Free round for anyone who hits the potato. 1.00

00:05:28.000 We wanted to see how long it would take for him to get his ass kicked. 0.99

00:05:31.000 So, that is an open invitation to anyone at this pub in Ireland. 0.99

00:05:35.000 Listen, we don't know what will happen here.

00:05:36.000 Could go well.

00:05:36.000 Could go horribly.

00:05:38.000 We are here actually for, we can say that now, for one of the Santorum daughters' weddings.

00:05:43.000 Senator Santorum.

00:05:44.000 We had to come out here.

00:05:45.000 We said, well, let's broadcast the show because we don't take days off work.

00:05:47.000 We don't do it.

00:05:48.000 We don't do it.

00:05:51.000 That's horrible.

00:05:52.000 It's almost as bad as these mutton chops.

00:05:53.000 I don't think these mutton chops are going to last very long, by the way.

00:05:56.000 We went, we visited Ireland.

00:05:58.000 Beautiful countryside.

00:06:00.000 Beautiful topography, obviously.

00:06:01.000 In fact, here's a quick shot of...

00:06:04.000 Yeah, here's actually us going to the cliffs.

00:06:06.000 What is it?

00:06:07.000 Mordor?

00:06:08.000 Mordor?

00:06:09.000 Just watch.

00:06:10.000 *music* *b* it.

00:06:22.000 I'll Google it later.

00:06:24.000 There's a castle.

00:06:27.000 There's that.

00:06:29.000 That's where Koopa keeps Princess Peach. 1.00

00:06:33.000 So there you go.

00:06:33.000 Not always as good as you expect them to be.

00:06:36.000 It's not exactly Google Image perfect.

00:06:39.000 I know.

00:06:40.000 Because I saw it now, I have no desire to see Stonehenge.

00:06:44.000 Because I feel as though I'll be disappointed.

00:06:45.000 So listen, we're in Ireland, and as you know, I've been concerned about going to Europe for a long time.

00:06:49.000 We've had invitations.

00:06:50.000 Anyone, sensibly.

00:06:52.000 But Ireland was one of the few places we've talked about that we said, okay, it's pretty safe.

00:06:56.000 Ireland, obviously, wasn't for a long time a hotbed for any kind of terrorism.

00:07:00.000 We'll be talking with some of the locals here about the recent events that have occurred and the radicalization that's happening in Ireland.

00:07:07.000 There's kind of a cultural shift.

00:07:08.000 There's a bit of a political divide in Ireland that's interesting now that didn't really exist not too long ago.

00:07:13.000 No.

00:07:14.000 Just today, I've seen articles coming out talking about the shift in Islamic immigration, how they're trying to radicalize people here.

00:07:20.000 Yeah, I can't do this.

00:07:21.000 Go ahead.

00:07:21.000 Continue.

00:07:22.000 And just today, on Yahoo, front page.

00:07:25.000 Front page.

00:07:26.000 Was that what it was?

00:07:27.000 Yahoo Ireland?

00:07:29.000 No, it was just Yahoo, Yahoo.

00:07:30.000 About Ireland?

00:07:31.000 Yeah.

00:07:31.000 And you know, they'll probably have that picture framed that they were mentioned on Yahoo here somewhere in the near future.

00:07:38.000 Because that's an event.

00:07:40.000 That's an event for them.

00:07:41.000 It is.

00:07:41.000 Good for you.

00:07:42.000 Let's try and build some momentum with that.

00:07:43.000 So we'll be talking with some locals here at the pub.

00:07:44.000 Listen, a lot of people now know that one of the London terrorists was radicalized, spent a lot of time in Ireland.

00:07:51.000 In Dublin.

00:07:52.000 Spent a lot of time in Dublin.

00:07:53.000 And there have been some real cultural changes, and there are some people here at the pub who right away came up where we were from and wanted to blame the atrocities of Donald Trump on us, as well as the Vietnam War.

00:08:04.000 Some people have perceptions of Americans that aren't necessarily accurate.

00:08:08.000 And I think maybe we have some perceptions of some people from Ireland that aren't accurate, people from the U.K.

00:08:11.000 So it'll be interesting to kind of get down to it and see what it is that they believe and see what it is that most people here think about freedom of speech and sort of the political correctness run amok.

00:08:21.000 There was an interesting poll, actually, recently in Ireland.

00:08:23.000 65% of Irish people, when asked, said they don't think any speech should be banned, even if it's offensive.

00:08:29.000 Even if it's offensive.

00:08:30.000 Even if it's offensive.

00:08:30.000 And what's crazy is they do have protected free speech in their constitution, but there are anti-blasphemy laws.

00:08:36.000 No, we talked about that with, I can't remember her name, but Renee Gorman.

00:08:40.000 Renee Gorman, Australia.

00:08:41.000 I'll show you.

00:08:41.000 A lot of countries seem to have that.

00:08:42.000 It seems to be kind of a trend of free speech, except this, this, this, this.

00:08:46.000 Yeah, except this is a little subtext, which it's either absolute or really it's of no value.

00:08:49.000 So, all right, let's bring in some locals from Ireland.

00:08:51.000 We have no idea how this will go.

00:08:52.000 Hey, what about the lady over here? 1.00

00:08:54.000 Do you want to come on over?

00:08:55.000 Come on.

00:08:56.000 You've been a lively one.

00:08:57.000 Come on.

00:08:58.000 Everyone here wants you to come on at the show.

00:09:00.000 Everyone wants it.

00:09:01.000 Just come on, sit down, and we'll chat with you.

00:09:06.000 Yeah.

00:09:06.000 Yes.

00:09:07.000 Yes.

00:09:07.000 Come on over.

00:09:08.000 We have the lady from... 0.98

00:09:08.000 We have Home Alone... 0.98

00:09:09.000 Have you saw Home Alone 2?

00:09:12.000 She finally let the birds go.

00:09:13.000 She finally let the pigeons go.

00:09:14.000 So let's bring her in. 1.00

00:09:15.000 Let's bring her in. 1.00

00:09:16.000 Okay.

00:09:16.000 There we go.

00:09:17.000 All right.

00:09:18.000 Round of applause for...

00:09:19.000 What's her name?

00:09:19.000 Well, you need to get here.

00:09:20.000 You need to get here.

00:09:21.000 We can't see you.

00:09:21.000 Hold on.

00:09:23.000 I won't bite.

00:09:24.000 Come on.

00:09:24.000 Come in closer.

00:09:25.000 I've got to bring you in a little closer.

00:09:26.000 There we go.

00:09:29.000 Okay.

00:09:29.000 Did I miss the name?

00:09:31.000 What was the name?

00:09:32.000 Molly Maloney.

00:09:34.000 Molly Maloney.

00:09:35.000 Okay, there you go.

00:09:36.000 She's putting on the mutton chops.

00:09:37.000 There you go.

00:09:38.000 You know what?

00:09:39.000 Not bad.

00:09:39.000 You could give Bruce Jenner a run for his money.

00:09:41.000 Let's talk about it now.

00:09:43.000 Well, I saw you smoking the e-cigarettes, so that's allowed in the bars here.

00:09:47.000 When I get home, I'll smoke another cigarette.

00:09:49.000 But will it be an e-cigarette?

00:09:50.000 No.

00:09:51.000 Okay, let's ask you.

00:09:52.000 Molly Maloney.

00:09:54.000 Maloney.

00:09:54.000 Now, see.

00:09:55.000 Oh, jeez.

00:09:56.000 These stools are small.

00:09:57.000 How small are you people in Ireland? 1.00

00:09:58.000 Your ass is so big. 1.00

00:09:59.000 Oh, jeez. 1.00

00:10:01.000 You have no idea how deep that goes.

00:10:04.000 She's so perceptive.

00:10:05.000 She's unbelievably receptive.

00:10:07.000 Hello.

00:10:08.000 Let's cut her off after the next Guinness. 1.00

00:10:12.000 What are your perceptions, actually, of Americans?

00:10:14.000 When you think of people from the United States of America, what do you think of?

00:10:17.000 How do you think of Americans?

00:10:19.000 After meeting you?

00:10:21.000 No, no, no.

00:10:21.000 Before meeting me.

00:10:23.000 Oh, before meeting you, it was lovely.

00:10:26.000 Okay, I knew this was exactly what was coming.

00:10:29.000 But when people in Ireland, when they think of Americans, do they generally think of friendly people?

00:10:33.000 Do they think of brash people?

00:10:34.000 Do they think of loud people?

00:10:35.000 I suppose I lived in America a couple of years ago.

00:10:38.000 You lived in America?

00:10:39.000 Yeah.

00:10:40.000 Okay, what about?

00:10:42.000 New Jersey.

00:10:43.000 You sound like you're making this up as you go along.

00:10:45.000 No, I'm not.

00:10:46.000 Come back here.

00:10:48.000 No, I didn't.

00:10:50.000 I lived in New Jersey.

00:10:51.000 I cycled all around Missouri, which is Missouri.

00:10:57.000 I'm sorry.

00:10:58.000 I live there.

00:10:59.000 I was going to say, of all the states, New Jersey and Missouri, I'm going to end up in Hackensack and St.

00:11:06.000 Louis.

00:11:07.000 Did you visit Detroit?

00:11:09.000 No, I don't drive.

00:11:10.000 Okay.

00:11:11.000 Okay.

00:11:12.000 So you were there for a couple years?

00:11:13.000 I did.

00:11:14.000 And then I went to San Francisco.

00:11:16.000 Okay.

00:11:17.000 Oh, that was fantastic.

00:11:18.000 Really?

00:11:19.000 You liked it?

00:11:19.000 Oh, I loved it.

00:11:21.000 I lived in Ninos all my life when I was as gay as a Christmas tree. 0.73

00:11:24.000 Went to San Francisco.

00:11:26.000 Freedom!

00:11:28.000 Freedom! 0.99

00:11:29.000 Okay, because gay stateside. 0.98

00:11:31.000 So do you mean gay? 0.91

00:11:32.000 How are we saying gay?

00:11:33.000 Because San Francisco comes with a connotation.

00:11:35.000 Happy. 0.99

00:11:37.000 Homosexual. 0.96

00:11:38.000 All of the above? 0.99

00:11:39.000 Yay! 0.99

00:11:39.000 Okay, so San Francisco would make sense. 0.99

00:11:42.000 Well, you know, Bill Burr says Boston.

00:11:44.000 Very Irish. 0.90

00:11:45.000 Boston is just kind of like a racist San Francisco. 0.50

00:11:47.000 Boston.

00:11:48.000 Boston?

00:11:49.000 Boston.

00:11:50.000 Not Boston.

00:11:51.000 Not Boston.

00:11:52.000 Boston.

00:11:53.000 I was speaking English.

00:11:56.000 So, we'll...

00:11:57.000 With Americans. 0.98

00:11:59.000 So, you went there.

00:12:00.000 What did you expect when you went out to the United States?

00:12:01.000 And what did you encounter?

00:12:05.000 I encountered just such a good time, you know.

00:12:09.000 They're lovely.

00:12:10.000 You're lovely. 0.99

00:12:11.000 You're lovely too, aside from the fat ass comment. 1.00

00:12:16.000 I have a fat ass. 1.00

00:12:19.000 If the giant underwear fits. 1.00

00:12:20.000 Come here till I tell you.

00:12:21.000 Come here till I tell you.

00:12:23.000 It's all gone awry now though.

00:12:25.000 Is it?

00:12:26.000 Okay, so what's the political perception of America now or the cultural perception abroad?

00:12:31.000 Well, I don't think it'd be very good in Europe, would it?

00:12:35.000 You mean someone like Donald Trump?

00:12:38.000 Or Donald Duck.

00:12:39.000 Or Donald Duck.

00:12:40.000 Yeah, well, you know, that's...

00:12:41.000 Turn his head upside down.

00:12:42.000 He's the same character.

00:12:43.000 We have Brexit in the UK. There are a lot of parallels there, right?

00:12:46.000 So it's not like this is completely foreign to Europe.

00:12:49.000 And Donald Trump, a lot of people would say, is kind of a symptom of that.

00:12:52.000 How do you view that?

00:12:54.000 I'm sorry.

00:12:54.000 I'll take these off for a minute.

00:12:55.000 That's okay.

00:12:55.000 You can keep them on.

00:12:57.000 I'm Irish, actually.

00:12:59.000 So, you know, Brexit and whatever...

00:13:02.000 In England, we've always had this little thing going on with us.

00:13:07.000 We've tried to repair it a bit.

00:13:09.000 Now we have a bit of ISIS going on.

00:13:12.000 I was going to say, just a bit of ISIS. No, no, I'm dead serious.

00:13:17.000 Our borders may be locked tighter now because of situations that have happened as regards to London.

00:13:24.000 And one of the terrorists being found that had an address in red mines in Dublin.

00:13:32.000 This is really serious for us, as Brexit comes about.

00:13:36.000 Well, here's one thing.

00:13:37.000 Ireland is one of the few places that didn't take a lot of refugees, refused more than they let in.

00:13:42.000 And there's been a lot more radicalization, a lot of people don't know this, in Ireland with younger Muslims.

00:13:47.000 You've been here.

00:13:48.000 Have you walked around this small town?

00:13:50.000 Yeah, we've been walking around quite a bit, yeah.

00:13:51.000 Okay, so you see how many multi-denominations are in the town.

00:13:57.000 Yeah.

00:13:57.000 So would you support them now being stricter and a little tighter on security, or do you think that's...

00:14:03.000 Do you think that's a sad kind of outcome?

00:14:05.000 We're Irish.

00:14:06.000 It's very hard to pin us down, I think, on that.

00:14:09.000 It's very hard to pin us down on that because we've been everywhere.

00:14:14.000 We've done this, we've done that, we went to...

00:14:17.000 We've been everywhere.

00:14:19.000 Yeah.

00:14:20.000 For the safety of everybody's future...

00:14:24.000 Mm-hmm.

00:14:25.000 I think we need to be a little bit more careful.

00:14:27.000 You think you need to be a little stricter?

00:14:28.000 Maybe a little more choosy?

00:14:29.000 No, I said careful.

00:14:30.000 Well, careful, but careful means stricter as far as...

00:14:32.000 I mean, listen, let's be honest.

00:14:33.000 You have to examine.

00:14:35.000 If you live in Ireland, it's strict enough.

00:14:35.000 You have to root things out.

00:14:37.000 Right.

00:14:38.000 So let me ask you this.

00:14:39.000 Can you see, because a lot of people talk about it stateside, you know, sort of Donald Trump and the wall, this idea.

00:14:43.000 But because we've had this issue in the United States, and we effectively have open borders where there's no way to monitor people who are coming in, do you think understanding, now experiencing this in Ireland, maybe the Irish people might have more sympathy for Americans saying, you know what, we need to put a lockdown on this and know who's coming in and going out?

00:15:01.000 I think that America has so many different ethnic minorities in it.

00:15:07.000 That have settled, have added to everything that is...

00:15:12.000 Including the Irish. 0.81

00:15:13.000 Including the Irish, but I'm talking about everybody.

00:15:16.000 They've all done something.

00:15:19.000 We all need to find out who are the people that are doing nothing.

00:15:23.000 Right.

00:15:24.000 Yeah.

00:15:24.000 We need...

00:15:25.000 People need to keep things safe.

00:15:28.000 Right. 0.99

00:15:31.000 We've lived in Ireland with all these bombs and all this shit going off everywhere. 0.99

00:15:36.000 We've lived here. 0.98

00:15:38.000 Now other people are seeing it and that's not right.

00:15:43.000 It isn't right. 1.00

00:15:44.000 It's a load of shit. 1.00

00:15:45.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:15:46.000 Oh, good.

00:15:46.000 Well, I'm interested to hear that.

00:15:48.000 Why can't you?

00:15:50.000 I go to Manchester tomorrow.

00:15:52.000 Yeah.

00:15:53.000 Okay?

00:15:54.000 I'm going into a city that is suffering with everything that is just put up with.

00:15:59.000 Right.

00:16:00.000 And somebody asked me, do you want to go into the city centre?

00:16:03.000 I said, sure I do.

00:16:05.000 And I'll be wearing an Irish colour when I go in there to say, I'm supporting Manchester.

00:16:10.000 Yeah.

00:16:10.000 Absolutely.

00:16:12.000 Absolutely.

00:16:13.000 But how they get around this, I don't know.

00:16:18.000 The world needs to be a better and safer place, but we have all these things.

00:16:23.000 Social media, all these things.

00:16:26.000 Yeah.

00:16:28.000 Do you think they're helping the world, even though I'm on your microphone?

00:16:31.000 Well, you know, I think it's a double-edged sword.

00:16:33.000 I think it's a double-edged sword.

00:16:34.000 It's a kind of a catch-22 situation.

00:16:37.000 Because this conversation can reach more people than will be seen in traditional news or media, and it can be organic and unedited and raw.

00:16:44.000 And then on the flip side, people can be more disconnected than ever and just lie, and then it catches on like wildfire or radicalized terrorists.

00:16:52.000 I mean, your friend is dressed up as a potato.

00:16:55.000 I know, isn't it?

00:16:56.000 I mean, you know.

00:16:57.000 No one can tell us he can't.

00:16:57.000 These are true things.

00:16:59.000 Mr.

00:17:00.000 Spud.

00:17:02.000 Can you see Mr.

00:17:03.000 Spud, everybody?

00:17:04.000 Well, like we said, there's still a free round forever hits him.

00:17:07.000 He's a spud from the famine.

00:17:09.000 He looks like a sad, what do you call him? 0.99

00:17:14.000 Homosexual is not the word you're looking for, right? 0.98

00:17:16.000 No, good God, no.

00:17:18.000 Well, many use that for him.

00:17:21.000 He looks like a sad pumpkin.

00:17:23.000 He looks like a sad pumpkin. 0.74

00:17:24.000 In other words, a potato.

00:17:25.000 It's June.

00:17:26.000 Yeah.

00:17:27.000 So he must be...

00:17:28.000 Yeah, potatoes are sprouting.

00:17:29.000 Well, thank you so much.

00:17:30.000 Yeah, we do have some other people we're going to bring on as well, but I appreciate you giving us your point of view.

00:17:35.000 The other crowd are very rowdy.

00:17:36.000 Yeah, I know.

00:17:37.000 Well, you've got a Scotsman and you've got a Welshman right there.

00:17:40.000 They're already fighting.

00:17:42.000 Yeah.

00:17:42.000 I know.

00:17:43.000 We're all going watching the Lions rugby match in the morning.

00:17:43.000 Come here.

00:17:47.000 Get up, everybody.

00:17:48.000 Half eight in the morning.

00:17:49.000 Get cracking.

00:17:50.000 All right.

00:17:50.000 Thanks so much.

00:17:51.000 We appreciate it.

00:17:52.000 Can I keep your pipe?

00:17:53.000 You can't.

00:17:53.000 That's an actual Peterson authentic Irish pipe, and it's expensive.

00:17:56.000 You mean a meership?

00:17:57.000 No, no, that's not a meership, but that's Peterson.

00:17:59.000 They're made in Dublin.

00:18:00.000 You can keep the mutton chops.

00:18:01.000 You can keep the mutton chops.

00:18:02.000 No, you can keep them.

00:18:04.000 Thank you.

00:18:05.000 Oh, you're so...

00:18:06.000 You are darling.

00:18:07.000 Bye, everybody.

00:18:07.000 Bye, everyone.

00:18:08.000 Here in the Irish pub, getting opinions, learning a lot.

00:18:11.000 It's interesting to hear that...

00:18:15.000 Is your house on fire?

00:18:16.000 I don't know.

00:18:17.000 Is your house on fire?

00:18:18.000 Alright, so now we're bringing someone younger.

00:18:19.000 What is your name, sir?

00:18:20.000 Steven.

00:18:21.000 Steven.

00:18:21.000 Alright, Steven.

00:18:22.000 Nice to meet you.

00:18:23.000 So this was interesting.

00:18:24.000 When we picture people from Ireland... 0.99

00:18:27.000 That's not far off.

00:18:28.000 Yeah, well, this is Claire, so it's Ennis, Sonia Town.

00:18:33.000 So we're from Limerick, which is one of the cities of Ireland.

00:18:36.000 So there'll be Dublin, Galway, Cork, and Limerick, so it's a bit different there.

00:18:39.000 What she was just talking about, she said she should have gone Hillary. 1.00

00:18:41.000 She should have gone Hillary, but she just said, yeah, we need to make ourselves safer.

00:18:41.000 I find that interesting.

00:18:44.000 We need to know what's going on.

00:18:44.000 We need to know who's coming in and out.

00:18:46.000 It seems like, I don't know if it's because the left-right shift hasn't occurred here in Ireland, but there's a disconnect between what people want, which is freedom of speech.

00:18:55.000 If you look at the polls, actually Ireland is a more free market economy than the United States in a lot of ways.

00:19:00.000 And now people are saying, well, we need to crack down on radicalism, but then saying, you know, Hillary.

00:19:06.000 Yeah, I think that's all due to the media here in particular because...

00:19:11.000 You won't hear any right-wing sort of media here.

00:19:14.000 So everything like RTE, if you're on the radio, so RTE, Today FM, Spin Southwest, everything that they report on is all...

00:19:22.000 There's no mention of Trump in a positive sense in any way, even if he did something right.

00:19:26.000 So...

00:19:28.000 Everyone here, unless you look it up yourself, would be on... 0.99

00:19:31.000 You should have voted Hillary because Trump's a sexist. 1.00

00:19:34.000 Trump's a racist. 1.00

00:19:35.000 He doesn't like Muslims. 1.00

00:19:36.000 He doesn't like Mexicans. 0.99

00:19:37.000 He doesn't like women. 0.98

00:19:38.000 And they'll take it all because they'll see it on Facebook or they'll hear it on RT or they'll hear it on wherever.

00:19:43.000 And they'll just take it as fact because that's nobody really cares.

00:19:46.000 Do you think there's...

00:19:46.000 I know you're here with your friends and you're kind of more right-leaning.

00:19:49.000 We were talking.

00:19:49.000 Do you think there's...

00:19:50.000 Almost a disconnect where generationally younger people are starting to lean more that way because they've been raised in such sort of a bastion of liberalism.

00:19:59.000 Because from our generation, we're a little older.

00:20:00.000 When we were raised, it was just like the era of George Bush.

00:20:02.000 So everyone went super liberal.

00:20:03.000 Now Generation Z is kind of going the other way.

00:20:05.000 Do you feel in Ireland that you guys are kind of growing or are you just outliers in a whole bunch of colleges filled with leftists?

00:20:13.000 I don't know.

00:20:14.000 I mean, my parents are probably older than a lot of people's parents.

00:20:16.000 My parents have been in their 60s, and they would have been very Christian, very conservative.

00:20:21.000 And I think most people's parents here, maybe not a lot of them would be liberal.

00:20:24.000 I think most people, even I've been talking to people in colleges I've been speaking to about this kind of stuff.

00:20:29.000 A lot of people don't care.

00:20:31.000 So it's not really mainstream yet.

00:20:32.000 But if you ask them, they would lean left either way.

00:20:36.000 They'll just take it on board that Donald Trump is bad.

00:20:39.000 But do you think they'd lean left?

00:20:40.000 Like, for example, if you ask them about, okay, do you support freedom of speech here?

00:20:43.000 Or what do you think about, you know, obviously the recent terrorists spending a lot of time in Ireland with these mosques going up, people being more radical?

00:20:51.000 Do you think they would actually answer left on those questions?

00:20:54.000 Because we just saw there even someone who said vote Hillary was far more right on a lot of individual questions. 0.98

00:20:59.000 And I've experienced that a lot in my time here in Europe.

00:21:02.000 I think the majority of people, if you ask them here, would say that, and it's because they're getting it from the media, that the attacks have nothing to do with the religion.

00:21:14.000 They'll say that.

00:21:14.000 Even though they'll say that free speech, say whatever you want, but it's all to a point.

00:21:20.000 So it's free speech, say whatever you want.

00:21:21.000 For example, I'd be on Twitter.

00:21:24.000 And even just yesterday, it was hashtag, it was trending, it was hashtag feminists are everywhere. 1.00

00:21:29.000 So, and everyone I spoke to was Irish, so I said, you know, I just asked questions like, why, give me one reason why we need feminism in this country. 1.00

00:21:38.000 And the hostility I was met with was...

00:21:41.000 It was crazy. 1.00

00:21:42.000 Do they say you have a fat ass and make fun of you sitting on a stool? 1.00

00:21:44.000 No, I didn't say that, but they would call me, you know, before I even said anything about women whatsoever, it was just, you know, you're a misogynist. 1.00

00:21:51.000 I think that's kind of just the way it's picked up in Ireland.

00:21:54.000 It's free speech to a point.

00:21:56.000 And that's your dame over there, right? 1.00

00:21:57.000 That's your dame over there. 1.00

00:21:57.000 That's my girlfriend. 1.00

00:21:58.000 Is he a sexist?

00:21:59.000 Is he a misogynist?

00:22:00.000 No.

00:22:01.000 No, I mean, I have four sisters.

00:22:02.000 I have six nieces and my girlfriends.

00:22:04.000 He doesn't slap you around.

00:22:05.000 There's no Fifty Shades of Grey against your will.

00:22:07.000 No.

00:22:08.000 So that's the way it's viewed upon in Ireland, where a lot of people you speak to probably don't care, but they would take, because that's the way it is in the media, they would take feminism, Islamophobia, all these things as fact, without even looking it up, because that's what's talked about in RT2 FM. It's just...

00:22:24.000 If they report on these attacks like the Manchester attack, there's no mention.

00:22:28.000 They won't tell you that it was a religion.

00:22:30.000 They'll just say that it was an incident that happened in Manchester.

00:22:32.000 They'll leave out the fact that...

00:22:34.000 Or London that happened on Saturday.

00:22:36.000 They'll cleverly edit all the stories and the interviews of people where they don't mention the fact that the boys were saying...

00:22:42.000 This is for Allah, or, you know, there's none of that, or Allah Akbar. 0.98

00:22:45.000 Do you think, how much of that do you think has to do with, you know, we were talking about this, there's a blasphemy law here in Ireland that was put into effect.

00:22:50.000 Do you think most people even know about that, that you can actually be arrested, you can be charged for blaspheming?

00:22:56.000 And of course, you know, anything, if you claim, if you say, well, a lot of people don't understand this.

00:23:00.000 If you say, I don't believe Muhammad is a man who he claims he was, which is the messenger of God, is to blaspheme against Islam.

00:23:05.000 So...

00:23:06.000 It comes down to who is the judge of what is blaspheming or hate speech, whatever it is.

00:23:11.000 How many people do you think are even aware of that in Ireland?

00:23:14.000 I wasn't aware of it until the Stephen Fry...

00:23:16.000 Did you hear about that?

00:23:17.000 That was where it came up, where Stephen Fry criticized God.

00:23:19.000 It was an Irish interview.

00:23:20.000 And that's where it all came up, and he got off it in the end.

00:23:23.000 Well, I wasn't aware of it.

00:23:24.000 I don't know how many people were.

00:23:25.000 I assume people...

00:23:26.000 And he's far left.

00:23:28.000 I wouldn't say he's far left.

00:23:29.000 Again, he's kind of culturally left, and I think standing up sort of with the freedom of speech, I think it's forced him to become...

00:23:35.000 Yeah, I guess he's over that.

00:23:36.000 He's pretty far left.

00:23:37.000 Yeah, but I think in this country they're trying to get rid of all... 1.00

00:23:42.000 They want to get away from the Catholicism and the Christianity. 1.00

00:23:46.000 I think they want to separate that totally where they take away...

00:23:49.000 They don't want to collect that anymore.

00:23:50.000 I don't think so.

00:23:52.000 From things I've seen where they want to take away from the whole Christianity and the separation of church and the state.

00:23:57.000 But if you're in school, they won't.

00:24:02.000 Christianity beyond the chaplain block... 0.61

00:24:08.000 It's interesting though because abortion is completely illegal in Ireland.

00:24:10.000 It's the only place where that's the case.

00:24:12.000 And that's because they recognize the individual rights of personhood to the unborn.

00:24:16.000 Where do you see that going?

00:24:18.000 Because that's obviously deeply rooted in the Catholic faith in the history here in Ireland.

00:24:23.000 Well, that's another thing I'd be on board with.

00:24:25.000 I'd be pro-life.

00:24:26.000 I'd be totally against the abortion.

00:24:27.000 I mean, my father goes around and he canvases for Save the 8th.

00:24:31.000 So he goes around the houses and he knocks and he talks to people.

00:24:34.000 And they would say, you know, some people tell him to just go away.

00:24:37.000 But they had a thing and it was March the 8th.

00:24:40.000 It was International Women's Day.

00:24:43.000 Everywhere, but in Ireland they did a thing where they strike for repeal.

00:24:46.000 So they...

00:24:47.000 Topless?

00:24:48.000 Did they go topless?

00:24:49.000 No, I don't think so. 0.98

00:24:50.000 Do they have pussy hats on like we have in the States? 1.00

00:24:52.000 Not yet, thank God. 0.99

00:24:53.000 Disappointing.

00:24:54.000 They took the day off work.

00:24:57.000 No, just took the day off work.

00:24:58.000 Most of them don't work.

00:24:59.000 Yeah, most of them don't work.

00:25:00.000 A lot of them probably didn't.

00:25:01.000 And then people were encouraging the women to take the day off work. 0.98

00:25:05.000 And then on Twitter, there's this...

00:25:06.000 I don't know if you've ever heard of a group called the Rubber Bandits.

00:25:08.000 No.

00:25:09.000 So they're like kind of a...

00:25:10.000 It sounds like a Home Alone 3.

00:25:11.000 They're kind of a comedy thing, but...

00:25:14.000 I saw them tweet that men should go out and support the women for repeal, the strike for repeal, and take the day off work as well, and I said...

00:25:23.000 They sound hilarious, by the way, for a comedy deal.

00:25:25.000 Yeah, I know, right?

00:25:26.000 And then I said, that's well and good for you to say.

00:25:28.000 I said you should change your name to the White Knights. 0.92

00:25:32.000 They got mad.

00:25:33.000 Like the media, I was like, it's all well and good to tell men to take the day off work.

00:25:37.000 You know, you don't have to work hard.

00:25:38.000 And sure, I got criticized for that as well, but...

00:25:40.000 Well, you know, that's what happens when it's Twitter.

00:25:42.000 Twitter's not real life.

00:25:43.000 Hey, speaking of comedy, we appreciate you taking the time, Steve.

00:25:45.000 I think we have to get the Scotsman in here because he's had a few.

00:25:48.000 All right, hey, come on, Mr.

00:25:51.000 Scotsman.

00:25:51.000 You've got to get in here, right?

00:25:52.000 Oh, come on now. 0.98

00:25:53.000 You were just shadowboxing in the corner there.

00:25:57.000 He was shadowboxing.

00:25:58.000 He was getting ready.

00:25:59.000 It was like that scene with Hurricane Denzel Washington in the prison.

00:26:02.000 All right, there we go.

00:26:04.000 Oh, come on now. 0.98

00:26:06.000 Move on over.

00:26:07.000 Let's get a little closer.

00:26:08.000 Now they can see you on camera.

00:26:10.000 What's your name?

00:26:11.000 I just know you're a Scotsman.

00:26:12.000 Kevin Dockery. 0.88

00:26:13.000 You're going to have to hit me one more time. 0.95

00:26:15.000 Huh? 0.99

00:26:16.000 Kevin?

00:26:18.000 Dockery?

00:26:19.000 Dockery.

00:26:21.000 Dockery?

00:26:21.000 Yeah.

00:26:22.000 Okay, I got it.

00:26:22.000 Okay.

00:26:23.000 You're looking at me like I got it wrong.

00:26:24.000 No, I got it right.

00:26:25.000 Okay.

00:26:25.000 So, Kevin, first off, what are you doing in Ireland?

00:26:29.000 We'll have a meeting today.

00:26:30.000 Okay.

00:26:31.000 Hey, as far as Americans, we think of Scotland and Ireland as pretty similar.

00:26:36.000 What's the big difference?

00:26:38.000 Is it a lot more mountainous in Scotland?

00:26:41.000 No, they're lovies.

00:26:44.000 Well, they're very similar.

00:26:46.000 They're lovies.

00:26:47.000 No, no, but I'm saying, is it more mountainous as a region in Scotland?

00:26:51.000 It's more hilly in Ireland?

00:26:53.000 This is called Breaking the Ice.

00:26:56.000 Scotland's bad looking.

00:26:57.000 Okay, alright.

00:26:58.000 So what's the impression that you have the Scots have of Americans?

00:27:01.000 They're all from it. 1.00

00:27:04.000 She's still laughing at my fat ass. 1.00

00:27:06.000 She can't get over it. 1.00

00:27:06.000 I like Americans because Donald Trump's a man. 1.00

00:27:11.000 So you think...

00:27:11.000 Okay, so there we go.

00:27:12.000 Okay, listen.

00:27:12.000 No, you can't walk away now.

00:27:13.000 You have to stay here.

00:27:14.000 You have to stay here.

00:27:15.000 Stay in the pocket.

00:27:16.000 So you said Donald Trump's a man.

00:27:17.000 As long as he keeps to his story.

00:27:19.000 As long as he keeps to his story.

00:27:21.000 You probably don't even agree with him on everything, but you like...

00:27:24.000 What is it you like about him that you say he's a man?

00:27:27.000 He's right.

00:27:27.000 He's actually right.

00:27:29.000 He's...

00:27:31.000 He's Scottish.

00:27:32.000 Is he Scottish?

00:27:33.000 Yes, he's half Scottish.

00:27:35.000 Do you think that's what makes him so bold?

00:27:35.000 Okay.

00:27:37.000 Yes.

00:27:38.000 Do you think it's a part of it?

00:27:40.000 So, when you were watching the election then, were you rooting for him?

00:27:44.000 I had him at 12 to 1.

00:27:46.000 You really did?

00:27:47.000 I had him at 12 to 1.

00:27:48.000 I made 6 grand.

00:27:49.000 I put 500 pounds on it.

00:27:51.000 Did you actually bet on Donald Trump?

00:27:53.000 Yep.

00:27:54.000 Wow.

00:27:55.000 I made six thousand pound off him.

00:27:57.000 Oh my gosh.

00:27:58.000 Nate Silver?

00:27:59.000 You lost to a Scotsman who had won too many.

00:28:02.000 Nate Silver, the brilliant man.

00:28:04.000 Who's ready to come out?

00:28:06.000 Oh, Dara?

00:28:07.000 I thought I said that made six...

00:28:07.000 Okay, well...

00:28:09.000 I thought made six grand, by the way.

00:28:11.000 I thought...

00:28:12.000 He made six grand on Donald Trump winning.

00:28:13.000 All right, now he's got to go.

00:28:14.000 All right, listen, I don't know...

00:28:15.000 This is just the nature of...

00:28:18.000 This is the show.

00:28:19.000 This is the show.

00:28:20.000 All right, let's bring him on here.

00:28:21.000 I didn't mention the name of the pub because I didn't know...

00:28:24.000 Oh, did I? No, no, but that was targeted.

00:28:26.000 Small.

00:28:26.000 That's only to a small amount of people.

00:28:28.000 So we can stay?

00:28:29.000 Do you want to stay?

00:28:30.000 He's been very, very nice here at Lucas Bar.

00:28:30.000 All right.

00:28:32.000 Am I pronouncing it?

00:28:33.000 Ennis?

00:28:33.000 Ennis, yeah.

00:28:34.000 Ennis.

00:28:34.000 Okay.

00:28:35.000 Were you worried at all when you heard we were coming over to do this?

00:28:37.000 No, I think I actually answered the request before I even looked you guys up.

00:28:42.000 Okay.

00:28:42.000 Well, and then you...

00:28:43.000 Well, your mistake.

00:28:44.000 Yeah.

00:28:45.000 No, no, I wasn't too worried at all.

00:28:46.000 Well, you've been really accommodating here.

00:28:48.000 Now, what would you say your perceptions are?

00:28:50.000 I mean, working in a bar, working in a pub, most people in Ireland, their perceptions of Americans right now, right now in this climate.

00:28:58.000 Right now, I mean, I don't think it's that easy to define it.

00:29:01.000 I don't think you can put...

00:29:02.000 Put your finger on it as one particular brand.

00:29:04.000 It's layered because lots of people have their own personal connections with the US. Actual family connections and cultural connections.

00:29:10.000 So it's not that easy to put your finger on it.

00:29:13.000 Obviously we get a lot of our information from the European media, from the Irish media and a little bit of the US media.

00:29:18.000 So that tempers it.

00:29:20.000 Ireland has always been generally positively disposed towards the US just because it is like an extended family for us.

00:29:26.000 So it'll never be entirely negative.

00:29:27.000 I think it's more, I think people feel a little bit of ownership of the US. People here feel as though when something they don't like is happening, they feel kind of disenfranchised.

00:29:36.000 They've contributed a lot to the American culture.

00:29:37.000 We certainly believe so, yeah.

00:29:38.000 We think they have, yeah.

00:29:39.000 Yeah, I mean, you have, you know, Irish, the Italians, or some of the first waves of immigrants who came in and became Americans, and are actually some of the proudest Americans, you know, to be there in that country.

00:29:47.000 Well, let me ask you, one thing that we notice, even talking with people here, even though we talk about the EU, Brexit, probably won't happen with Ireland, there seems to be a strong streak of, you know, national pride.

00:29:57.000 Some people call it nationalism in Ireland, but national pride, pride in your country.

00:30:01.000 We were just talking.

00:30:02.000 We were at a breakfast place, by the way.

00:30:04.000 Things open really late here, in case you didn't know, compared to the States.

00:30:07.000 We couldn't find a coffee place open before 9.

00:30:09.000 So is it just the breakfast locations aren't particularly ambitious?

00:30:12.000 Who wants coffee before 9?

00:30:14.000 You don't have a coffee machine?

00:30:15.000 Well, not when we travel here, but we're sitting there like, no, no one wants to work that early.

00:30:20.000 So we were surprised.

00:30:21.000 This lady said, I said, what do you think about Americans?

00:30:24.000 She said, well, you know, we like Americans, all right. 0.99

00:30:26.000 We f***ing hate the English! 0.99

00:30:28.000 Well, we hate the accent. 0.99

00:30:29.000 We hate when we put the accent on.

00:30:31.000 We can say that.

00:30:34.000 In many ways, that's our word.

00:30:35.000 That's our term.

00:30:36.000 We can say that all we want because of what was done to us.

00:30:39.000 But it's meant as a kind rebuff.

00:30:41.000 It's like there are friends who were super bad to us in the past.

00:30:44.000 Everyone who did that is dead.

00:30:45.000 And everyone that did it to is dead.

00:30:46.000 But that was your greeting to Americans.

00:30:48.000 Yeah, that was your greeting to Americans.

00:30:50.000 That was our first impression of the Irish.

00:30:52.000 Could you imagine, though, if you came over to the States and said, hey, what do you think about the Irish?

00:30:59.000 Ah, you guys are okay. 1.00

00:31:00.000 We f***ing hate Mexicans. 1.00

00:31:02.000 That would not go over well. 0.99

00:31:04.000 That is one issue, I think, in America that a lot of people don't understand is if Americans have pride in their country, national pride, often abroad it's seen as...

00:31:14.000 Really bad.

00:31:15.000 And by extension, you'll find it very difficult to find, if you go to Britain, you'll find lots of proud Scots, lots of proud Welsh.

00:31:25.000 You'll find it very difficult to find a very proud and outwardly proud English person because it is associated with triumphalism.

00:31:31.000 So there could be a touch of that.

00:31:32.000 I mean, it could be that you guys see yourselves as being triumphalist if you're running someone else down.

00:31:38.000 The English, I know that they do that.

00:31:39.000 I know that they feel that way.

00:31:40.000 It's actually unfortunate.

00:31:41.000 They can't, to a full extent, celebrate their own culture.

00:31:45.000 Do you think that because of that sort of browbeating and that guilt that they feel, maybe that's where...

00:31:48.000 I mean, if you look at the younger generation, a surprising amount of them were pro-Brexit.

00:31:51.000 A surprising amount of young people.

00:31:53.000 Is that the case?

00:31:54.000 I didn't...

00:31:54.000 Yeah, I mean, you're taking these things relatively, right?

00:31:57.000 For example, when we say Generation Z is a generation below millennials, the most conservative generation ever, what that means is if you look at baby boomers who are now conservative... 0.84

00:32:05.000 60s?

00:32:06.000 Yes.

00:32:07.000 Actually, yeah, my dad...

00:32:08.000 Ended at, like, 63.

00:32:10.000 You know, when they were young, they were the flower child hippies.

00:32:12.000 Oh, yeah, but sorry.

00:32:13.000 Yeah, and they became more conservative.

00:32:15.000 But now, even at a young age, comparatively, they're much more right-leaning.

00:32:20.000 And I'm wondering if it's because maybe they're separated from that guilt.

00:32:22.000 Maybe a lot of young English people say, you know what?

00:32:24.000 I didn't do anything wrong, and I like my country.

00:32:27.000 I'm proud of my country.

00:32:28.000 I can't speak to that.

00:32:29.000 I don't know.

00:32:29.000 I will always have the impression that the opposite is the case.

00:32:31.000 There's actually younger people in the UK, certainly, who are a little bit more aware of the evils done by them.

00:32:37.000 I mean, they tried to take over the world, right?

00:32:38.000 And they tried very hard, and they came damn close to it.

00:32:40.000 And you kind of lost your number one draft pick with the United States, England.

00:32:44.000 So, sorry, that got away from you.

00:32:46.000 We did pretty well.

00:32:47.000 Well, I mean, we're doing okay too.

00:32:48.000 Yeah, Ireland did pretty well too, yeah.

00:32:50.000 So I think that my impression is that younger people in the UK would have more awareness of what it used to be to be the British Empire.

00:32:57.000 Brexit seems to be almost like a grasp at the olden days or the days that never even existed before.

00:33:03.000 The golden years of their imagination, people would kind of think they had this great empire where everyone liked them and they got along with everyone and they were all very rich, but they weren't.

00:33:10.000 Rich people were rich.

00:33:11.000 Poor people were poor.

00:33:12.000 Well, I mean...

00:33:13.000 How much of it is imperialist versus people who just don't want to be, like you said, we were talking about Germany with the EU, don't want to be footing the bill for other people and, again, don't want to be guilted and don't want to have their own policies and laws dictated to them?

00:33:25.000 I think you see with Donald Trump as a symptom when people talk about that.

00:33:28.000 People were made ashamed to be American.

00:33:30.000 People were made ashamed to be male for a long time.

00:33:32.000 Now you have camps that are saying...

00:33:34.000 Check your privilege, check your white privilege, your male privilege, and they actually have courses to deconstruct and deprogram being a male in college.

00:33:41.000 These are actual courses now, and I think that maybe the political spectrum they've reached so far right now on the left.

00:33:47.000 That's where you're seeing a lot of people like this, a rejection of it.

00:33:49.000 Like I said, if you have 30% of young people who are leaning right, it doesn't sound like a lot, but compared to previous generations where it might have been 15%, That's a shocking amount.

00:34:00.000 Typically, anyone before the age of 30 tended to be very, very left, and we're not seeing that anymore.

00:34:05.000 And we're just sort of, as people who study sociology, as people who study kind of the human condition with the show, obviously with comedy, it's something that everyone has a different answer for.

00:34:13.000 And it's surprising to hear different points of view in Europe.

00:34:18.000 I'm sure they had a lot of stats.

00:34:20.000 I'm using that as a comparison.

00:34:22.000 I don't have the exact number on them, but generation, they call them Z, are becoming more and more right-leaning, and a lot of them, not right-leaning necessarily politically, but culturally as freedom of speech.

00:34:30.000 It could simply be a symptom of generations getting more right-wing, and then moving on to next generations.

00:34:36.000 It could be a cycle.

00:34:37.000 I don't know that.

00:34:38.000 Final thing, you said people here don't really care about the political correctness.

00:34:43.000 They like comedy to just be comedy.

00:34:45.000 So, that's something.

00:34:46.000 Has that always been the case?

00:34:47.000 Or do you think, again, that's a rejection?

00:34:49.000 Because in the States, you know, it's gotten to a point where you can't say anything.

00:34:51.000 You have people being fired for tweets that offend folks.

00:34:53.000 Well, there is the fact that we are still in the early years off a lot of social media, too.

00:34:57.000 So, it's very different.

00:34:58.000 I mean, that happens here as well.

00:34:59.000 People don't know what to do with it.

00:35:01.000 Where do you buy an iPhone around here, by the way?

00:35:03.000 Where do you buy an iPhone around here?

00:35:05.000 In a telephone shop.

00:35:06.000 We didn't see any.

00:35:06.000 We've been walking around.

00:35:07.000 We haven't seen any.

00:35:08.000 There's entire streets in this town that do nothing but cell phones.

00:35:10.000 Oh, really?

00:35:11.000 Okay.

00:35:11.000 Cell phones.

00:35:12.000 Really?

00:35:13.000 Okay.

00:35:14.000 No, I see it with an S and then C. We have an open mic tonight.

00:35:14.000 Yeah.

00:35:19.000 We're looking for Radio Shack.

00:35:20.000 No, we didn't see anything.

00:35:22.000 You'll go through these villages and you'll see, and obviously it's beautiful.

00:35:25.000 There's a lot more history here than the United States.

00:35:27.000 But we didn't see anything like a cell phone shop.

00:35:29.000 So you have to go to the cell phone street.

00:35:31.000 In this town, certainly, yeah.

00:35:32.000 In this town, there's a street.

00:35:33.000 Yeah, they're out there.

00:35:34.000 It's like your jewelry district.

00:35:35.000 This is where you want to buy your phone.

00:35:37.000 And who are your carriers?

00:35:38.000 It's not Sprint.

00:35:39.000 Please tell me you don't have Sprint.

00:35:40.000 No, I'm not sure what you guys call Vodafone.

00:35:43.000 I think they're Verizon, possibly.

00:35:44.000 I'm not sure.

00:35:44.000 Oh, Verizon, very nice.

00:35:45.000 We've got Vodafone.

00:35:46.000 We've got a couple of native ones.

00:35:48.000 We've got like O2. I'm not sure.

00:35:50.000 There's a bunch.

00:35:51.000 Well, listen, we know you have to go back to work on the bar there, but hey, Derek, thank you so much for taking time.

00:35:54.000 We appreciate it.

00:35:55.000 This has been a very illuminating experience.

00:35:56.000 Is this Dean coming in here?

00:35:57.000 Oh, Black Donnelly's. 0.98

00:35:58.000 Looks like the Black Donnelly's kid. 0.99

00:36:00.000 Thank you.

00:36:01.000 No, we're going to...

00:36:02.000 We'll just keep this...

00:36:03.000 Yeah, we'll probably wrap...

00:36:04.000 Okay, Dean, we're going to have to wrap you really quickly.

00:36:06.000 Dean will be the last...

00:36:07.000 No, no, no.

00:36:07.000 You can bring him in.

00:36:08.000 Bring him in.

00:36:09.000 This is what happens when you're broadcasting and there's alcohol involved.

00:36:12.000 People just come on in and... 1.00

00:36:13.000 Do you want to take shots at my fat ass? 1.00

00:36:15.000 No, thanks. 1.00

00:36:16.000 You sure?

00:36:16.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:36:17.000 No, positive.

00:36:18.000 That's kind of a theme going on tonight.

00:36:20.000 It's massive.

00:36:20.000 What?

00:36:21.000 It's massive.

00:36:21.000 All right, freedom of speech in Ireland.

00:36:23.000 What do you think?

00:36:23.000 Do you think that's under assault?

00:36:26.000 To a point, I don't agree with the blasphemy laws at all.

00:36:30.000 No, not at all.

00:36:32.000 But yeah, it's very...

00:36:33.000 Some things are kind of untouchable.

00:36:37.000 You can't really talk about Islam without being ridiculed in some sort of way.

00:36:42.000 Same with abortion, same with anything. 0.89

00:36:44.000 You're kind of branded...

00:36:46.000 We're going to have to wrap this up pretty soon.

00:36:49.000 So let me ask you this.

00:36:49.000 Do you see that getting better?

00:36:51.000 Or do you see people kind of waking up now?

00:36:53.000 Do you see...

00:36:54.000 Because the truth is, we've talked about this.

00:36:56.000 Western civilization in Europe and political Islam are incompatible. 1.00

00:37:00.000 That's just reality.

00:37:00.000 Do you think people are going to wake up to it, as you're seeing that now with Ireland?

00:37:03.000 Or do you think it's just first until Europe just kind of collapses on itself?

00:37:07.000 I think they have to cap on.

00:37:09.000 Do you know?

00:37:10.000 I think they do.

00:37:11.000 I don't know if you know, but I mean, the most popular name, baby name, in Ireland at the moment is Mohammed.

00:37:16.000 Really?

00:37:16.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:37:17.000 That was a statistic that only came out there about a week ago.

00:37:19.000 You wonder how much of it is self-perpetuating, though, where it's because they sell so many of the Mohammed bumper stickers. 0.61

00:37:24.000 People are like, well, I know that if I name my kid Mohammed, I'll always have it at the joke shop. 0.99

00:37:28.000 Always find the keychain.

00:37:29.000 Yes.

00:37:30.000 Liberal people that would do it just for the sake.

00:37:32.000 Yeah, just for the sake of it.

00:37:33.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:37:34.000 Now, do you think there's a general sentiment that people are concerned?

00:37:38.000 Or are most people trying to turn a blind eye?

00:37:40.000 In my immediate circle, yes, to an extent.

00:37:43.000 But I can't handle the online stuff.

00:37:46.000 I get too heated.

00:37:48.000 You get too heated?

00:37:48.000 Yeah, I do, yeah.

00:37:49.000 Well, we don't want that to happen because you're Irish. 1.00

00:37:51.000 You guys get heated.

00:37:52.000 Which is funny because you should be able to handle your liquor, but you fight a lot when you drink.

00:37:57.000 I don't know, to be honest.

00:37:58.000 Maybe a bit when I was younger, but not anymore.

00:38:01.000 I'm very seldom, though, I have three or four points on.

00:38:04.000 That'll be about it.

00:38:04.000 But if you catch me on a Saturday night, it'll be a different story.

00:38:07.000 Three or four points for me, you'd find me.

00:38:09.000 Yes, you would.

00:38:10.000 Well, that's more so him playing possum.

00:38:12.000 Oh, I hope no one tries to take advantage.

00:38:14.000 And he lays back down.

00:38:16.000 I'm just a simple little potato.

00:38:18.000 I'm just a simple potato.

00:38:20.000 Okay, well listen, thank you so much for taking the time.

00:38:25.000 We'll wrap this up here.

00:38:25.000 We're here at Lucas Bar in Ennis, Ireland.

00:38:27.000 They've been incredibly welcoming, incredibly kind.

00:38:28.000 I still don't know that we have a ton of answers.

00:38:31.000 I'm kind of surprised by people answering on individual questions, lining up more right, you seem to see, but then thinking overall, no, we're more left.

00:38:40.000 And I think that might be the issue with Europe.

00:38:43.000 I think there might be some cognitive dis...

00:38:44.000 I think they might...

00:38:46.000 Yeah, I've had a pint right now.

00:38:47.000 I had a pint.

00:38:49.000 Yeah, I had a pint.

00:38:50.000 I had four points.

00:38:51.000 So they know in Ireland that's called moderate drinking.

00:38:54.000 So you can tweet us, at escrowder, at knockager, and let us know what you think.

00:38:58.000 What's the direction of Europe?

00:38:59.000 You know, a lot of people get really defensive.

00:39:01.000 They get mad.

00:39:01.000 Listen, I don't get mad when we say that the United States has issues, that we have problems.

00:39:05.000 I want to get proactive and fix them.

00:39:06.000 It seems like a lot of people, in Ireland at least, are looking to do that.

00:39:09.000 It seems like some people in Europe are, and it seems like some other folks...

00:39:11.000 I think we're catching them in the thought process of a lot of these things.

00:39:14.000 The transition.

00:39:15.000 Yeah.

00:39:15.000 And so it's kind of a just...

00:39:17.000 It's the beginning of the awakening.

00:39:20.000 It's the...

00:39:20.000 Yes.

00:39:21.000 It's the beginning of the awakening.

00:39:23.000 You know, that's where...

00:39:24.000 Yeah, well, who knows?

00:39:25.000 We'll see what happens, and we'll see if in five years from now, Muhammad is still the most common name in Ireland.

00:39:30.000 That is scary.

00:39:31.000 Think about that.

00:39:31.000 That is scary.

00:39:32.000 Think about Muhammad as the number one name in Ireland.

00:39:35.000 Imagine that in Scotland.

00:39:35.000 That would change all of Braveheart.

00:39:37.000 Maybe moms are just kind of lazy, kind of like what's-his-face George Foreman. 1.00

00:39:42.000 Yeah, just have eight kids and name them all Muhammad. 0.93

00:39:45.000 I don't know.

00:39:46.000 Listen, Lotto with Crowder, live from Ireland.

00:39:48.000 We never know when we do these shows on locations, but we'll see where we end up next, and we're going to be going to the Santorum wedding tomorrow.

00:39:53.000 That should be fun.

00:39:54.000 It should be beautiful.

00:39:55.000 Beautiful in Ireland.

00:39:56.000 So they have that going for them, regardless of what else happens.
