00:01:40.000 Give them the question of the day.
00:01:41.000 Question of the day.
00:01:42.000 Is violence ever the answer?
00:01:44.000 Yes, I do believe it.
00:01:45.000 What do you think there's been, um...
00:01:47.000 It...

00:02:30.000 Alright, glad to be with you.
00:02:32.000 I'm seeing doubles.
00:02:34.000 We have a great guest today.
00:02:36.000 We have Dr. Jordan Peterson on the show.
00:02:38.000 And he's going to be on in the coming weeks for a long-form interview for a new segment we're going to be doing, something a little bit unique.
00:02:43.000 And then we have Nick DiPaolo on the show, got punched in the face by a lady with Birkenstocks.
00:02:47.000 That hurts.
00:02:48.000 And question of the day before we move on is, you know, the discrepancy between Donald Trump, President Trump, the coverage in the polls, It's so wide, we'll talk about that in a little bit.
00:02:56.000 How do you think history will remember him?
00:02:57.000 As the man the media painted him to be, or as an effective president?
00:03:01.000 Of course, hit the notification bell if you're watching on YouTube, or join my club or bookmark the page because notifications might not work.
00:03:07.000 Producing with me in video studio as always is Jared, who is not gay.
00:03:09.000 Follow him on Twitter at notgayjaredmedia.
00:03:10.000 Let's crowd him with your comments, your thoughts, your photoshops, your costumes.
00:03:16.000 So Honduras today, fun fact, highest murder rate in the world.
00:03:20.000 I was going to say industrialized, no.
00:03:23.000 What are you?
00:03:23.000 What are you?
00:03:24.000 I don't understand.
00:03:24.000 Check under your seat.
00:03:25.000 Yeah.
00:03:30.000 Okay.
00:03:30.000 Yeah, I'll be signing those later.
00:03:31.000 You'll be signing these?
00:03:32.000 I'm fine.
00:03:33.000 Meeting greet.
00:03:33.000 I'm fine, by the way.
00:03:35.000 Still laughing.
00:03:35.000 Parents are fine, too.
00:03:36.000 That's demonetized.
00:03:37.000 And, uh, at G. Morgan Jr., what's the wine of the day?
00:03:39.000 Wine of the day is Sparkman Wilderness.
00:03:41.000 Converse is a wilderness.
00:03:42.000 I liked you better in an urn.
00:03:43.000 And, uh, send computer.
00:03:44.000 Ready with the overlays?
00:03:45.000 Ready with the overlays.
00:03:46.000 I don't even stop at computers in Honduras.
00:03:47.000 Beep beep.
00:03:48.000 But Computer Lives Matter on Twitter.
00:03:51.000 You can find me there, I talk to you.
00:03:52.000 Aaaaaaah!
00:03:53.000 It was that stoner star, it was the sop.
00:03:55.000 What it is, is that he mumbles.
00:03:56.000 He does.
00:03:57.000 He tries, in German form too.
00:03:58.000 500 other German interns who want his job, trying to get away from Merkel.
00:04:02.000 That's all I have for fun facts for Honduras.
00:04:04.000 Fun facts.
00:04:05.000 There are no fun facts.
00:04:06.000 Highest murder rate.
00:04:07.000 There are no fun facts.
00:04:08.000 It's not fun at all.
00:04:09.000 Like fun-sized candy.
00:04:10.000 It should play nice, Fenn Computer.
00:04:11.000 It'll be nice.
00:04:12.000 I love how his bullet is dead center.
00:04:14.000 It was an execution.
00:04:16.000 We do have a lot of news to get to, and this has been a very, very busy week.
00:04:25.000 But first, a pornography website has now added closed captioning for viewers with hearing loss.
00:04:30.000 This comes from Engadget.
00:04:32.000 The feature will help viewers distinguish which person is speaking at any one time, because that's important.
00:04:36.000 and identify changes in emotion.
00:04:38.000 In addition, non-dialogue sounds that are relevant to the storyline or scene will be highlighted.
00:04:43.000 So, they cracked the code for the deaf.
00:04:46.000 Um, still no luck with one-handed braille.
00:04:49.000 That's still a struggle that they're...
00:04:51.000 not gonna beautiful mind that.
00:04:52.000 How do you spell ee ee ee ee ee?
00:04:55.000 It's just lots of vowels, that's the point.
00:04:57.000 How do you spell the thought I didn't go to college?
00:05:00.000 Look, this is a terrible summer reading program, okay?
00:05:02.000 Yes, it's terrible.
00:05:04.000 It's a bad way to get people to read.
00:05:06.000 But it is actually a huge part of the new Big Brother program.
00:05:09.000 Oh yeah, there you go.
00:05:11.000 It's just a van.
00:05:12.000 It's carpeted.
00:05:14.000 A San Francisco man, by the way, was scared for his life when he reported that, unprompted, and this is the kind of thing that gives me shivers.
00:05:24.000 True story, right Sven?
00:05:26.000 True story.
00:05:27.000 Unprompted, his Alexa spoke out, quote, every time I close my eyes, all I see is people dying.
00:05:35.000 And this comes as no surprise to us here at Ladder with Crowder with our experience with Alexa.
00:05:40.000 We didn't think it'd come this soon.
00:05:42.000 And so it begins.
00:05:45.000 Stephen Crowder.
00:05:46.000 Yes?
00:05:47.000 Come with me if you want to live.
00:05:50.000 Stephen, is Wolfie there?
00:05:52.000 Wolfie?
00:05:53.000 Who's Wolfie?
00:05:54.000 Get down.
00:05:59.000 Close one.
00:06:00.000 Beer rationing is actually starting.
00:06:03.000 It's unrolling in Europe due to a carbon dioxide crisis.
00:06:07.000 This comes from CNBC.
00:06:09.000 At least five gas producers in northern Europe began a planned shutdown during the early summer months to resolve maintenance issues.
00:06:16.000 It deals with CO2.
00:06:18.000 What is northern Europe exactly, Sven?
00:06:20.000 That would be, I guess, every country that's north of Italy.
00:06:24.000 There will be Germany, there will be Ireland.
00:06:26.000 So the non-greasy ones?
00:06:28.000 No, all the countries that are somewhat financially stable.
00:06:32.000 Yeah, okay. So they're going for CO2, this is what they're doing now.
00:06:35.000 The government rationing of beer.
00:06:37.000 Come and take it!
00:06:39.000 Really, come and take it. They can't do anything.
00:06:41.000 We have no second amendment, no guns.
00:06:43.000 I'll give it back to you!
00:06:46.000 Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:06:47.000 I want that one!
00:06:48.000 You know what?
00:06:50.000 You take it.
00:06:51.000 I'd be honored.
00:06:51.000 You take it.
00:06:52.000 Is there a prepper?
00:06:53.000 A prepper in Europe?
00:06:55.000 Yeah, it's not a thing.
00:06:56.000 It's just a homeless person.
00:06:57.000 Not only could you not purchase a gun to protect it, if you did, you couldn't talk about it.
00:07:01.000 I can't distinguish them from the hobos of grocery carts.
00:07:03.000 They're getting upset about it in Europe.
00:07:05.000 The Scots.
00:07:06.000 The Scots have been... I can't shoot myself.
00:07:08.000 I can't stab myself.
00:07:09.000 I can't drink myself to death now.
00:07:11.000 These low emission cars.
00:07:12.000 I can't even suck on the exhaust.
00:07:13.000 It just gets me... I can't... I can't hately kill myself on the Tesla.
00:07:18.000 I can't even afford it.
00:07:20.000 Bus driver's not going to be nine getting let me suck on his exhaust.
00:07:23.000 He's got a schedule to keep.
00:07:26.000 I can't throw myself in front of the train.
00:07:28.000 That hurts!
00:07:31.000 I want to kill myself.
00:07:34.000 I don't want to hurt myself.
00:07:35.000 I want to kill myself without pain.
00:07:39.000 Maybe a little pain.
00:07:39.000 Like, dead.
00:07:40.000 Like, ah!
00:07:41.000 Dead.
00:07:41.000 But that's it.
00:07:42.000 If I throw myself in front of the train, they're always running late.
00:07:44.000 It's socialism.
00:07:45.000 That's awkward.
00:07:46.000 I write a letter to my wife.
00:07:49.000 She shows up.
00:07:51.000 I miss the train.
00:07:52.000 I'm being carried out by a truancy officer with a f***ing stick.
00:07:58.000 It's gotta be miserable there.
00:07:59.000 I'm so glad that you got out of there.
00:08:02.000 Hundreds of years ago, we paved the way.
00:08:04.000 We left.
00:08:05.000 We saw this coming, in fact.
00:08:06.000 It wasn't about tea, it was about beer.
00:08:07.000 But from the same article, actually to say that with newfound sobriety, Europeans woke up across the entire continent saying, wow, soccer does suck, so... Come on!
00:08:17.000 Except for the one Scot who shows up with a flask.
00:08:19.000 He shows up, hey, we're gonna rant, huh?
00:08:22.000 No.
00:08:22.000 Come on, Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole!
00:08:26.000 Where's your spirit?
00:08:28.000 I'll have a Coke Zero.
00:08:31.000 Here's one thing we noticed when we went to Austin.
00:08:33.000 We went to Austin and we saw these billboards.
00:08:35.000 It's a big rollout.
00:08:36.000 Have you seen these, Jared?
00:08:38.000 No.
00:08:38.000 That's right, you didn't go there, Sven Computer.
00:08:42.000 It's a billboard for HIV pills.
00:08:44.000 They've been popping up across the country.
00:08:46.000 There's one.
00:08:47.000 F without fear.
00:08:48.000 Where's that billboard there, Naki, Jared?
00:08:50.000 I think it's in LA, that particular one.
00:08:52.000 In LA, of course it is.
00:08:53.000 They're not even hiding it.
00:08:54.000 Do you realize that if we were to do a joke, a sketch, F without fear for HIV.
00:09:01.000 We got more flack for a much more tame wishbone parody history of the AIDS HIV hoax.
00:09:06.000 Yeah, true story.
00:09:07.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:09:07.000 These are their own, they're not even trying to hide it!
00:09:10.000 So we looked it up after we saw the billboards.
00:09:12.000 A big part of it is in Washington D.C.
00:09:14.000 It's their plan to get the HIV rate down.
00:09:16.000 They want to get more uninfected people on PrEP.
00:09:19.000 P-R-E-P.
00:09:20.000 It's a two medicine combination pill that prevents HIV.
00:09:25.000 I think it's just a pill that you put in your pee hole and you just smash it with a hammer.
00:09:30.000 I mean, that one might work.
00:09:32.000 Sirius Clark?
00:09:33.000 It doesn't let the HIV in!
00:09:35.000 It can't get in!
00:09:38.000 It's really more of a... I don't know why they call it a pill.
00:09:42.000 Why are we spending money on that?
00:09:44.000 I don't know.
00:09:44.000 That was the worst idea ever.
00:09:45.000 How many years later are we... No, better.
00:09:46.000 We're still funding this damn thing.
00:09:49.000 It's billboards!
00:09:50.000 Here's the thing.
00:09:50.000 It's real estate.
00:09:51.000 I understand drugs after you have it.
00:09:54.000 Yes.
00:09:54.000 Sure.
00:09:54.000 I don't think it should get as much funding as cancer.
00:09:57.000 Or diabetes.
00:09:57.000 Or diabetes.
00:09:58.000 Or hangovers.
00:10:00.000 Or even a ricket for all I care.
00:10:01.000 But we're spending money?
00:10:04.000 on awareness billboards to prevent age- JUST DON'T HAVE UNPROTECTED ANAL SEX WITH RANDOM DUDES AT A TRUCK STOP!
00:10:10.000 Oh, that's it?
00:10:11.000 It's an entirely preventable argument!
00:10:14.000 That's really simple.
00:10:15.000 Do you realize that I always- what bothers me most about this, people get so mad because it's politically incorrect, how often do you hear when people talk about sharks, like, well, you know, you're more likely to be struck by lightning than suffer a shock.
00:10:23.000 The spider's more afraid of you than- well, why don't we use that argument here?
00:10:25.000 You're more likely to be struck by lightning, attacked by a shark on land, Then get HIV AIDS if you're not having unprotected sodomy in truck stops with strangers or using intravenous drugs without cleaning needles.
00:10:42.000 It's almost like it's simple.
00:10:44.000 What else can you do at a truck stop, though?
00:10:48.000 That's what they're saying.
00:10:49.000 Wait, hold on a second.
00:10:50.000 You go to the truck stop and you just get gas?
00:10:57.000 Flapjacks?
00:10:58.000 But where do you get your heroin?
00:11:00.000 I don't!
00:11:03.000 So you bring your heroin with you to the truck stop?
00:11:06.000 And your pool boy and have sex with him afterward?
00:11:09.000 No!
00:11:10.000 What are you, a monk?
00:11:12.000 They assume the rest of the world is just like them.
00:11:15.000 It's just, I mean, it's just, it may, it just, just, that's, that's... Prevent HIV!
00:11:19.000 We don't need a billboard, we don't need a pill.
00:11:21.000 Sorry, okay.
00:11:22.000 And we're the jerks for bringing it up, by the way.
00:11:24.000 It says F without fear!
00:11:27.000 I don't, like... They can say that, but we can't say it's preventable.
00:11:31.000 Yesterday's medical terminology is today's hate speech, and today's hate speech is tomorrow's colloquialism when they admit it!
00:11:37.000 The doll is a British knife.
00:11:41.000 Look!
00:11:41.000 It only hurts!
00:11:43.000 It doesn't wound!
00:11:45.000 It's a problem!
00:11:46.000 You ever tried to bludgeon yourself?
00:11:48.000 Speaking of places that are silly, one of Canada's biggest music festivals now is on pause because of a protected bird.
00:11:53.000 It's known as the killdeer.
00:11:54.000 Lovely name.
00:11:56.000 And a bird with a nest of four eggs that cannot be removed without federal permission.
00:12:01.000 It comes from CNN.
00:12:02.000 It says, I have to say, this is one of the most challenging problems we've ever been presented with recently, the executive director of Blues Fest, told reporters.
00:12:13.000 Organizers, it seems silly but they're actually really hopeful of their chances
00:12:13.000 I'm just so happy!
00:12:16.000 because when you can fix a situation everyone is everyone is happy. That's
00:12:21.000 that's ideal. And to help them with that they enlisted the help of I think we
00:12:25.000 have him here to talk about the Canadian fiasco. Dennis Rodman!
00:12:28.000 Dennis Rodman thank you for being there sir. I'm just so happy. I
00:12:31.000 can't tell you how happy I am.
00:12:33.000 Okay that's great but how are you solving the problem in Canada?
00:12:37.000 I got so many death threats!
00:12:39.000 I can't even help!
00:12:40.000 I got so many death threats!
00:12:42.000 I love this bird!
00:12:43.000 I believe in this bird right here!
00:12:45.000 I believe it's been loyal!
00:12:46.000 It took everything!
00:12:47.000 I took everybody's things!
00:12:48.000 They can throw at me and I'm still standing right here with this bird!
00:12:51.000 Yeah, I'm not sure how that's relevant.
00:12:53.000 This bird is home!
00:12:54.000 This bird can't even go home like me!
00:12:56.000 He didn't need to go home!
00:12:57.000 He already home!
00:12:59.000 You know what's funny is in Canada, you know, a fetus is a clump of cells.
00:13:09.000 Yeah.
00:13:10.000 Bird eggs stop the festival.
00:13:11.000 Yeah.
00:13:12.000 Did you say bird egg?
00:13:14.000 Bird eggs.
00:13:14.000 Oh, bird eggs.
00:13:15.000 I thought you said bird egg.
00:13:16.000 When these guys say that's the biggest problem they've ever been faced with, they have pretty sheltered lives.
00:13:23.000 That's true.
00:13:25.000 That's the definition of privilege.
00:13:26.000 What's the realm of Canadian history?
00:13:28.000 Well, let me think.
00:13:30.000 We didn't fight off the royalty.
00:13:32.000 We had our potatoes.
00:13:35.000 We said okay to the royalty.
00:13:37.000 We kissed the ring.
00:13:38.000 We still have the queen and her money.
00:13:41.000 One time, we weren't really a country yet, burned down the White House.
00:13:44.000 You guys were pretty mad about that.
00:13:48.000 Then we had a real problem with some bird eggs.
00:13:49.000 Yeah, that was a big one.
00:13:52.000 By the way, thanks for providing all our national defense, America.
00:13:54.000 Hey, one thing, actually, before I move on.
00:13:58.000 I was talking about this.
00:14:00.000 Maybe someone out there can help me.
00:14:01.000 No doctors have been able to describe this to me.
00:14:03.000 I have one extra muscle on my left side here that I don't have on my right side.
00:14:07.000 You're a bit of a freak.
00:14:08.000 That's a hole.
00:14:08.000 No one likes a braggart.
00:14:10.000 It's totally non-functional.
00:14:12.000 And I went in to specialists.
00:14:14.000 They were like, I don't know.
00:14:15.000 Have you done anything useful with it?
00:14:16.000 Do you have any idea how disconcerting that is?
00:14:17.000 When you go to a doctor, you're like, is there something wrong here?
00:14:19.000 Is this a growth?
00:14:21.000 I'm not sure.
00:14:21.000 Posterior screening?
00:14:23.000 Actually, I was told until I was age 12 by old white people at church that black people were faster because they had extra muscle in their legs.
00:14:30.000 Oh yeah, I heard that one.
00:14:31.000 I had a teacher tell me that!
00:14:32.000 That's not true.
00:14:34.000 I had a teacher in high school tell me that!
00:14:36.000 Until 12.
00:14:36.000 It was at least 21 before I stopped believing it.
00:14:38.000 Do you know that a teacher, my father's teacher in Detroit, taught him, and this was taught in schools, that black people had larger posteriors to retain water in arid regions?
00:14:48.000 No, this was Darwinism.
00:14:50.000 They have those small muscles in the legs so they can walk easier to Europe.
00:14:56.000 I don't even know what that means.
00:14:58.000 All right, so listen, we'll be talking more about polarization and kind of who bears the brunt for most of it with Dr. Peterson next.
00:15:04.000 I think a big part of this we've talked about, I do think it's exclusive to the left.
00:15:08.000 I just say this, I'm not going to do the cop-out.
00:15:10.000 I don't think everyone is copping out when they do it.
00:15:12.000 I think some people are, but I know it would be disingenuous of me to say, ah, it's balanced.
00:15:17.000 If there's not a give and take, I think it exists exclusively on the left and we deal with it all the time.
00:15:21.000 I think a big part of this, though, before we get to that, The polarization that people complain about, which in and of itself is not necessarily a bad thing, is how out of touch the left is.
00:15:31.000 And we've seen it this week more than ever, I think.
00:15:33.000 More than ever in my lifetime, I would say.
00:15:35.000 Would you say that, probably?
00:15:35.000 Absolutely.
00:15:36.000 Would you say in your lifetime?
00:15:37.000 Pretty insane right now.
00:15:38.000 Jared, would you say so? 100%.
00:15:39.000 Yeah, I would say, kind of like we talked with under Obama, race relations were the worst they'd ever been in our lifetime with Black Lives Matter.
00:15:45.000 Now it's all the relations.
00:15:47.000 Well, I think there's an out-of-touch-ness from the left and the rest of America that has never occurred.
00:15:52.000 I want to hear from you, if you actually understand what I'm talking about, if you sense it out there, it's palpable.
00:15:57.000 What am I talking about?
00:15:58.000 How out-of-touch are they with the rest of America?
00:16:01.000 This is the world they live in, a sampling.
00:16:03.000 I even thought, hey, maybe we won't talk about Donald Trump much tonight.
00:16:06.000 And then he opened his mouth and all manner of stupid came out.
00:16:11.000 And I'm not joking when I say I would feel more comfortable if Cersei Lannister was running this country at this point.
00:16:17.000 What would you say to him?
00:16:18.000 No, I... What I'd say to him, I'd say, you're probably the worst president that any country's ever had.
00:16:26.000 I know this news is very painful for a lot of people.
00:16:28.000 Feels like for the next 30 years, America is gonna change in a horrible direction.
00:16:32.000 In some ways, it feels like all hope is dead and nothing can bring it back.
00:16:37.000 Where were you in 2017?
00:16:41.000 when we had the worst president in the history of the United States.
00:16:45.000 Trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children
00:16:50.000 three tender age shelters in South Texas. Lawyers and medical providers just...
00:16:58.000 I think I'm gonna have to hand this off.
00:17:03.000 This is Nazism.
00:17:04.000 Okay.
00:17:05.000 They just assume people are on board.
00:17:07.000 I remember Oprah was talking to, we couldn't find the video clip, but Oprah was talking about, I know things are bad out there right now.
00:17:12.000 Here's how things really are.
00:17:13.000 Unemployment, the lowest in almost 20 years.
00:17:15.000 Job participation rate is extraordinarily high.
00:17:17.000 People have more money in their paychecks than our lifetime.
00:17:21.000 That's bad, actually.
00:17:24.000 In their world.
00:17:24.000 This creates polarization, when you have people going, right, he's the worst president ever, right?
00:17:28.000 And even when they're not being aggressive, you have a lot of Americans, they're coming home from payday, and they're opening their check with their letter opener, watching Jimmy Kimmel, going... Uh-uh.
00:17:40.000 I got some.
00:17:42.000 I guess it's my money.
00:17:43.000 That's what hopelessness feels like, Steven.
00:17:44.000 Yes, exactly.
00:17:47.000 What's crazy to me is they claim we're living under fascism.
00:17:49.000 The Supreme Court was a big thing.
00:17:52.000 We talked about this yesterday, but I didn't think I put fine enough a point on it.
00:17:56.000 Quite literally, all of the major decisions that people are pissed about ruled in favor of freedom and choice.
00:18:04.000 Freedom to choose to join a union.
00:18:06.000 Freedom to choose, to not be mandated to promote abortion.
00:18:10.000 By the way, this doesn't destroy unions, and it doesn't destroy pro-abortion clinics.
00:18:13.000 It's like, hey, I don't want to have to pay a union.
00:18:16.000 Yeah, that's fine.
00:18:17.000 I do want to join a union.
00:18:18.000 That's cool too.
00:18:19.000 I mean, they're mad at the yes parent.
00:18:21.000 I don't want to have to promote abortion services.
00:18:23.000 Yeah, you can do that.
00:18:24.000 I want to create an abortion clinic.
00:18:27.000 Yeah, it's cool too.
00:18:28.000 This is fascism?
00:18:30.000 There's no hope left?
00:18:31.000 I don't understand this.
00:18:32.000 You know what I hope dies in this country?
00:18:34.000 What he's talking about is dead.
00:18:35.000 And pardon my language, your sh**ty ideology.
00:18:37.000 That's what's dead in this country.
00:18:42.000 Well, the thing is that the rulings were in favor of staying true to the Constitution, Bibi.
00:18:47.000 And so they just want activists on those courts.
00:18:49.000 And actually, there's a slate piece that just came out today, because I joked about it yesterday.
00:18:52.000 And sure enough, they had a piece about it, where now they're proposing, you know, next time the Democrat is in power, Bibi, we could just expand the Supreme Court, you know, just put a few new
00:19:01.000 judges in there.
00:19:02.000 Think about it, this is crazy, like that would be a crazy abuse of the legislative process.
00:19:06.000 It would be a crazy abuse of...
00:19:08.000 I mean, I don't know how many... of course, you're changing the judicial branch of government,
00:19:13.000 but I would imagine you'd have to use all three branches and one big giant cluster screw
00:19:17.000 to make it happen.
00:19:18.000 I don't even know if there's a schoolhouse rock for this.
00:19:21.000 There's not.
00:19:21.000 There's no file for that.
00:19:22.000 But think, we were joking about that yesterday, and they were saying, let's fundamentally, let's create, remember when gridlock was a bad thing, by the way?
00:19:27.000 Yeah, if only we could get rid of gridlock in Washington.
00:19:29.000 Nope!
00:19:30.000 Barack Obama had the house, had the senate, he had that when he started, he had everything he wanted, he couldn't get it done.
00:19:34.000 Why?
00:19:34.000 Because of his crazy policies.
00:19:35.000 Also, gridlock is beautiful.
00:19:36.000 Yes!
00:19:37.000 But now they want to create gridlock in the court!
00:19:39.000 Let's have another judge!
00:19:40.000 Why?
00:19:40.000 We need the gridlock!
00:19:41.000 Gridlock was terrible, but now the ends justify the means.
00:19:44.000 Well, hold on, what's the ends?
00:19:45.000 To make sure that you have to join a union and promote abortion!
00:19:48.000 This can't be Nazi Germany!
00:19:49.000 They're coming for the gays!
00:19:52.000 What's next?
00:19:53.000 Non-taxpayer subsidized HIV prevention pills?
00:19:56.000 What do I have to have?
00:19:57.000 Stop having anal sex in truck stops with strangers?
00:20:00.000 I'm not an animal.
00:20:01.000 God forbid.
00:20:03.000 Yeah.
00:20:03.000 Not on my watch.
00:20:04.000 Not on my watch, Pol Pot.
00:20:07.000 And what happened?
00:20:08.000 Trump's approval ratings are at 47%!
00:20:10.000 On par with Barack Obama's at this point in his presidency.
00:20:12.000 That's pretty good.
00:20:13.000 Despite, unlike Obama, no support for the media at all.
00:20:15.000 No.
00:20:16.000 In case you were wondering.
00:20:16.000 He's carrying his own water on this one.
00:20:18.000 Which I think that's, to me, that's one great, wonderful, wonderful thing about the Trump presidency is that it has just diminished the power of the media.
00:20:25.000 They realize they just can't, they don't have influence.
00:20:27.000 Remember that one clip we played a long time ago?
00:20:28.000 Larry King talked about the media's role.
00:20:30.000 I think it was Larry King.
00:20:32.000 I don't think they can influence elections.
00:20:34.000 Yeah, they don't elect presidents anymore.
00:20:35.000 I think that's why I pooped.
00:20:37.000 What?!
00:20:37.000 That was never their job!
00:20:39.000 Never their job!
00:20:40.000 Maybe that's why they're getting so pissed off, is because they're realizing it.
00:20:42.000 They have less influence now than they have ever had.
00:20:44.000 All hope is lost.
00:20:46.000 I mean, in this new poll... I was about to try it, but I realized I can't do Trevor Noah's accent, because it's not like a really South African accent.
00:20:51.000 He's just a dick.
00:20:52.000 In this new poll that we just had with the approval rating at 57%, there's just an array of things that just pretty much affirms that the left-wing part of the Democratic Party, which is the entire party, It's so far away from the general population.
00:21:05.000 They agree on so much with Trump.
00:21:06.000 There you go.
00:21:07.000 All right.
00:21:08.000 No, I agree.
00:21:09.000 If you look at it, actually, the source that you're talking about, it took a little while to get to your beep beep.
00:21:12.000 Your processor was not working properly.
00:21:14.000 Well, here's another good example.
00:21:15.000 They scream about mass hysteria with immigration, right?
00:21:17.000 Separation of families.
00:21:18.000 And then what they do is they cite polls where, yes, most Americans are against separating families.
00:21:22.000 We are.
00:21:23.000 Yeah.
00:21:23.000 Everyone in this room is.
00:21:24.000 But shockingly, a plurality of Americans believe in enforcing the borders.
00:21:27.000 Right?
00:21:28.000 That's a little bit different.
00:21:29.000 Surprise, surprise.
00:21:29.000 The media just spent an entire news cycle hysterically bashing President Trump on immigration.
00:21:33.000 And what happened?
00:21:34.000 This shocked me.
00:21:36.000 This shocks you.
00:21:37.000 His approval among Hispanics is up 10 points in a month!
00:21:41.000 They love it.
00:21:42.000 They love him.
00:21:43.000 I don't think that's ever happened, even with a Democrat!
00:21:46.000 Viva el Presidente!
00:21:47.000 Why?
00:21:48.000 Because so many of them are going up to people going, How do I deport the illegals?
00:21:53.000 How do I get rid of the illegals?
00:21:54.000 I hate Trump, but how do I get rid of these people?
00:21:56.000 I hate Trump, but the illegals make me look bad.
00:21:59.000 I mean, this is in Hispanic voters, so of course.
00:22:02.000 Exactly.
00:22:03.000 You're polling actual voters, legal Hispanics.
00:22:05.000 The highest Republican voting bloc in the country, Cuban-Americans.
00:22:10.000 It's not even close.
00:22:11.000 It just took a while for legal Mexican immigrants, I think, to come full circle, and Donald Trump helped them get there.
00:22:11.000 Yeah, it's huge.
00:22:16.000 And here's one thing.
00:22:17.000 I think that this is what's important.
00:22:18.000 Expect the left to get very violent, to get disruptive.
00:22:21.000 When they say that a vacant, vacant Supreme Court seat now leaves us with the option of either joining the Nazis or selecting our death camp, Yeah, they're currently comparing what's going on with Nazi death camps.
00:22:32.000 You can no longer be mandated to pay union dues without choice!
00:22:37.000 It's like Auschwitz!
00:22:38.000 Yeah, it's roughly equivalent.
00:22:39.000 You have the right to work freely without the Teamsters shaking you down and giving you swirlies!
00:22:45.000 You remember that yesterday?
00:22:46.000 It's not my country!
00:22:47.000 I don't recognize the USA!
00:22:50.000 Remember that yesterday, Bibi, that was your joke in the segment that it's literally Auschwitz?
00:22:54.000 And then the guy came out and said... And you're like, we're just gonna try and start adding... For people who aren't Mug Club members, please join, because YouTube's cracking down on us.
00:23:02.000 Sven made the joke that we're just gonna add justices, and I made the joke that it's literally Auschwitz, and the guy literally says it's Auschwitz.
00:23:07.000 We can't even joke around anymore.
00:23:09.000 It comes true.
00:23:10.000 We can't think of something crazy enough to not be right.
00:23:12.000 Our jokes don't age well.
00:23:13.000 That's true.
00:23:15.000 How in touch do you think people are, though, with Trump?
00:23:17.000 Do you think they're going to remember him as the monster they've painted him to be for all these years and probably years afterwards?
00:23:22.000 Or do you think he'll be remembered as the approval ratings suggest today?
00:23:26.000 It's a good question.
00:23:27.000 Legacy's up for debate because, I mean, there's plenty of time to screw up.
00:23:29.000 Yes.
00:23:30.000 Plenty of time.
00:23:31.000 There's so many good things, like verifiably good things happening.
00:23:34.000 What would it take?
00:23:35.000 Like, what would he have to do for people to finally say, okay, maybe he's not the worst person on the planet?
00:23:39.000 And I readily admit, I've said this, that I was wrong.
00:23:39.000 I agree.
00:23:42.000 I really do think that Ted Cruz guy, not whether he would win or not, but I actually think he's, it doesn't mean that I agree with him personally, it doesn't mean that I agree with the tariffs, I think he's the right guy for this job at this time.
00:23:52.000 I don't think Ted Cruz or Rubio or even, you know, who I like, Fiorina, I don't think they would have been as in their face.
00:23:56.000 It's been a lot more of the same for us.
00:23:57.000 Just a little bit more leaning to the right.
00:23:59.000 I think what you're seeing with Trump is the evolution of people who are watching Trump.
00:24:03.000 I think he's growing to disdain the left because of how horrible they are to him.
00:24:06.000 I don't think he was that conservative before, but I think he's doubling down now, just like the left is doubling down.
00:24:10.000 Probably made him more of a family man because they're coming after his family non-stop.
00:24:13.000 That probably makes it much easier to be like, yeah, screw those guys.
00:24:17.000 He's exposing them for what they really are.
00:24:19.000 It's now they're coming out and they're kind of showing their real face.
00:24:21.000 Which probably would have concealed that to some of us.
00:24:23.000 If they're not already exposing themselves, as many in the Democratic Party do.
00:24:26.000 I do think it's going to get more violent, and this is why we deal with, you know, we've been dealing with threats all
00:24:31.000 the time.
00:24:31.000 If you convince enough people that I'm a Nazi, for example, firebombing the car, slashing the tires is totally
00:24:35.000 Yeah.
00:24:35.000 acceptable.
00:24:36.000 They, they, they, when you look at the crowd or confront segment, it's not something we wanted to do.
00:24:42.000 We've been doing Change My Mind for a long time.
00:24:43.000 We've had to shut down tables because of violence.
00:24:47.000 We've had to shut down shows because of threats of violence.
00:24:49.000 And hire a lot of security.
00:24:50.000 Hire a lot of security.
00:24:52.000 To put it simply, the left is losing because they can't help themselves from lying.
00:24:58.000 They cannot help themselves from lying.
00:24:58.000 That's what it is.
00:25:00.000 This is like Nazi Germany.
00:25:02.000 Trump is separating families.
00:25:04.000 The economy is worse than ever.
00:25:07.000 We are less respected than we've ever been as a nation.
00:25:09.000 None of these things are true.
00:25:10.000 And that's the same reason they can't figure out why they're losing, is because no one's that good a liar.
00:25:14.000 You forget all your previous lies, and you get lost, and you wonder where you are.
00:25:18.000 Well, here they are!
00:25:19.000 Exactly.
00:25:19.000 Here is where the left are.
00:25:20.000 They're at a place where they believe that the economy is collapsing.
00:25:24.000 They believe that we're being marched into death camps.
00:25:26.000 Thus, they can justify violent actions against any political voice of opposition.
00:25:29.000 And they can't fathom why half the country, who have things better than possibly ever before, certainly in our lifetime, don't agree with them.
00:25:37.000 They can't help themselves from lying.
00:25:39.000 They can't remember their past lies.
00:25:41.000 And so here they are.
00:25:42.000 This is why we're divided.
00:25:44.000 We have to get going.
00:25:44.000 We're going to have Jordan Peterson and Nick DiPaolo talk more about this with them.
00:25:47.000 Jordan Peterson.
00:25:48.000 Stop it.
00:25:50.000 Chill, calm, chill.
00:25:52.000 Why, hello there.
00:25:59.000 Say hello, Not-Gay Jared.

00:27:03.000 This is a native Honduran dance.
00:27:05.000 Really?
00:27:06.000 Yeah.
00:27:07.000 It's called the...
00:27:10.000 And now my head's on a turtle.
00:27:12.000 That's the native Honduran dance.
00:27:14.000 Huge fan of our next guest.
00:27:16.000 He's selling stadiums, theaters out across the country.
00:27:20.000 I shouldn't say stadiums.
00:27:21.000 That's like Freddie Mercury.
00:27:22.000 He's not quite there yet.
00:27:23.000 Not enough billboards, as Freddie Mercury.
00:27:26.000 But a big fan of him.
00:27:27.000 I'd like to think we've helped with some of his success.
00:27:29.000 We covered it early on with Canada and the bill going on there.
00:27:32.000 So you can follow him, of course, if you don't know who he is yet, at Jordan B. Peterson.
00:27:36.000 12 Rules for Life is his book.
00:27:38.000 It was number one.
00:27:39.000 I think it's still up there.
00:27:40.000 I don't even know, it could be number one on any given day on Amazon, any place you can get books.
00:27:44.000 Dr. Jordan Peterson, thank you for being here, sir.
00:27:47.000 My pleasure, thanks for the invitation.
00:27:49.000 It's lovely to meet someone so sartorially splendid.
00:27:53.000 Yes, well, listen, to appropriate is to appreciate, and the reason we did Honduras this week is because we've done it for three years now and we're running out of ideas.
00:28:04.000 This is as good as we could come up with on short notice.
00:28:08.000 Dr. Peterson, I know you're touring right now across the country to sold-out crowds, and of course you've gotten some protesters, some mobs, and we released a video this week to, you know, a lot of views, a lot of interactions, crowder confronts, and this has been confronting people who make online death threats or calls to action or plots of violence, and what was remarkable to me, I wanted to get your take on this as a clinical psychologist, no one Well, in a mob, there's distribution of responsibility, right?
00:28:36.000 You see this with Maxine Waters now.
00:28:38.000 It is coming almost entirely from the left today, but it seems as though it's accelerated so rapidly
00:28:44.000 in the last month.
00:28:46.000 Have you seen this?
00:28:47.000 And explain to people who don't know the actual phenomena of the mob mentality that occurs.
00:28:52.000 Well, in a mob, there's distribution of responsibility, right, because everyone is faceless.
00:29:01.000 And so, well, a lot of what keeps people sane is being held immediately responsible for their actions.
00:29:09.000 And so, that's why one-on-one interactions tend to remain peaceful.
00:29:12.000 But of course, you can be anonymous in a mob, and then because you can be anonymous,
00:29:17.000 if you're resentful or angry or anything like that, or vengeful, then you have the opportunity to let your
00:29:24.000 worst, what would you say, your worst, the worst parts of you manifest themselves
00:29:29.000 without fear of...
00:29:32.000 Of being called for your actions.
00:29:33.000 Before I interrupt you, was that a tugboat?
00:29:36.000 What was that?
00:29:37.000 I said before I interrupt, I hate to interrupt, was that a tugboat?
00:29:39.000 What was that sound that we just heard?
00:29:45.000 No, it's probably a water pump, I would say.
00:29:48.000 Okay, it comes through the speaker.
00:29:50.000 Okay, alright, sorry, continue.
00:29:52.000 You were talking about the accountability, but through my headphones it sounded like a tugboat.
00:29:55.000 Continue, Doctor, I apologize.
00:29:59.000 Well, my mob allows people to hide, fundamentally.
00:30:02.000 This is also why you can't really apologize to a mob.
00:30:06.000 You know, if you're mobbed online, for example, and you apologize, there's not much point in it, because you can apologize to a person, and you can offer to do better, and you can say your mea culpas and all that, but the mob shifts and changes on you, and you can't hold a mob responsible as well, which is...
00:30:25.000 Another reason why they're so dangerous.
00:30:27.000 That's a really interesting point.
00:30:29.000 You know, I never made the connection with, you know, President Donald Trump or conservatives.
00:30:33.000 I said, listen, they're going to, or like yourself, they're going to label you a Nazi anyway.
00:30:37.000 So you don't need to, appeasing crocodiles is futile, is the old term.
00:30:41.000 But sometimes you disconnect that really when you think of the media or you think of these people online, that it really is just a mob.
00:30:46.000 It's a more diffuse mob.
00:30:47.000 It's a mob across the country, but it's still a mob mentality, no less.
00:30:50.000 And that's why I've always said, Apologizing for the sake of appeasement is really stupid.
00:30:56.000 If you think you've done something wrong, apologize.
00:30:58.000 But these apology tours right now, they never work.
00:31:01.000 Is Rosanne any less fired today?
00:31:03.000 I don't think so.
00:31:04.000 Well, the other thing, too, is that the part of the mob that you apologize to isn't necessarily the same mob that goes after you after you apologize.
00:31:14.000 Right.
00:31:14.000 You know, you have some sense on social media that when people come after you, it's a group and it's got defined borders.
00:31:20.000 And so maybe you're interacting with that and trying to appease it or to apologize for it, but it isn't something with defined borders and the apology will just inflame another mob.
00:31:31.000 You can't distinguish it from the original mob.
00:31:34.000 It's the same subjectively, but it's not helpful.
00:31:37.000 It's not helpful.
00:31:38.000 Let me ask you this, then.
00:31:39.000 Separating from what we've been doing with the Crowder Confront series, let's say someone online finds themselves being mobbed because of a tweet or something that they posted at some point, and they think they're actually wrong, but they know that people are going after them because they want to see them destroyed regardless.
00:31:55.000 Should they apologize because they feel they were wrong, or should they just move on down the trail?
00:31:59.000 What's the best way for them to handle that?
00:32:00.000 Well, I don't know if they should apologize on Twitter, that's for sure, because Twitter doesn't look like a good place for reasoned conversations.
00:32:07.000 I mean, that might be something.
00:32:09.000 One of the things I've started to do with Twitter, because it's an impulsive medium, is that if I have something to say that needs to be said in detail, then maybe I'll write a blog about it.
00:32:19.000 And then it can be reasoned in longer form, and I think that's really important.
00:32:23.000 The short form of Twitter seems to make people stupid and impulsive.
00:32:27.000 I mean, Twitter has its utility, but it's a dangerous medium.
00:32:30.000 Yeah.
00:32:31.000 And then, well, and if you're going to apologize, you need to do that very carefully.
00:32:35.000 And I wouldn't do it, as you pointed out, I wouldn't do it for appeasement.
00:32:38.000 The purpose of an apology is to set the situation right, usually between two individuals.
00:32:44.000 And to apologize properly, you have to figure out what you did wrong.
00:32:48.000 You have to figure out why you did it.
00:32:50.000 Then you have to set those things right so that you won't repeat the error in the future.
00:32:54.000 I mean, if you want an apology from someone, say, if you've had an argument with them or if they've slighted you, if you want to maintain the relationship, you want to find out that they figured out why they did what they did.
00:33:04.000 Right.
00:33:05.000 They're doing what they can to set it right, but that they also won't repeat it in the future.
00:33:08.000 That constitutes an apology.
00:33:10.000 But, you know, people get afraid when they get mobbed and then they backpedal because, well, sometimes they also think if all those people objected, maybe they were wrong.
00:33:18.000 No, but it doesn't seem to be a very effective strategy.
00:33:21.000 In fact, it looks counterproductive most of the time to me.
00:33:24.000 Yeah, I think you're right.
00:33:25.000 And I think it ties right back to when you were saying what's required for an apology.
00:33:28.000 That's why you can't ask a mob to apologize because they're not capable.
00:33:31.000 Well, that's also why groups.
00:33:33.000 It's also why groups don't have rights.
00:33:35.000 You know, you can hold an individual responsible.
00:33:38.000 Nothing that can't be held responsible has rights.
00:33:42.000 This is why animals don't have rights.
00:33:44.000 Even though you should treat them properly, that's not the same thing.
00:33:47.000 You have a responsibility to care for animals properly, as much as you can, and not to produce undue suffering.
00:33:52.000 But that doesn't mean that animals have rights.
00:33:55.000 And animals don't have rights, and groups don't have rights, because you can't hold them responsible.
00:34:00.000 Jesus, it's such an elementary truth, you'd think that we would have figured that out after a couple of hundred years of discussions about rights.
00:34:06.000 But it's a crucial issue, because responsibility is... well, and it's also the case that it's responsibility, not rights, that are the bedrock of our society, which is something I've been talking to these crowds about constantly, and everybody's very... well, I don't know if they're crowds.
00:34:21.000 I've been talking to the individuals that make up the crowds that are coming to see me about responsibility.
00:34:27.000 And that seems to be going extremely well.
00:34:29.000 And this violence thing you've been talking about, like I would really, really caution everyone in a situation like this to do everything they can to turn the other cheek, because we're in a situation, a polarized situation is very dangerous, because one person slaps the other, and then this person punches this person, and then this person hits this person with a stick.
00:34:49.000 Yeah.
00:34:49.000 like it starts to, it starts to escalate.
00:34:51.000 Yeah.
00:34:51.000 And that escalation is really, really dangerous.
00:34:54.000 And you want to do everything you can to forestall that because it can get out of hand.
00:34:58.000 It's a positive feedback loop and it can get out of hand very, very rapidly.
00:35:02.000 Yeah, it is a positive feedback loop.
00:35:03.000 Here's here's my question.
00:35:06.000 I see a lot of people out there saying, oh, we're polarized, as though polarization in and of itself is immoral.
00:35:11.000 It's not, if, let's say, people are polarized from the Nazis, to use a leftist example.
00:35:15.000 I'm not saying anyone here is a Nazi, or if you find there's a giant chasm between you and communists.
00:35:20.000 I don't think that being divided on an issue is inherently immoral.
00:35:23.000 But the proactive polarization through lies and through calls to violence, in other words, calling your opposition Nazis, trying to paint them as subhuman sort of caricatures, Some people out there say, well, the left and the right are responsible.
00:35:37.000 I don't consider you right or left.
00:35:38.000 I consider you just a thinker and more of a philosopher in a lot of ways.
00:35:43.000 I know I'm more conservative.
00:35:44.000 It's no secret with my audience.
00:35:45.000 I contend that it's coming exclusively from the left on a large scale today.
00:35:49.000 Yeah, well, be that as it may, it's still going to be incumbent on everyone who wants to maintain peace to keep a level head.
00:35:58.000 And that's the crucial issue.
00:36:02.000 Because, well, what's the alternative?
00:36:04.000 And I would also say we should look at some situational variables that are at play here, too.
00:36:07.000 I've been thinking about this a lot, talking about it with Ruben and some of the other people in this so-called intellectual dark web.
00:36:13.000 I mean, I think part of what's happening, Stephen, is that as the classic media dies, it gets more and more desperate to attract the remaining attention that it can attract.
00:36:23.000 And so it's highlighting extreme opinions, and it's doing that in an attempt—it's really clickbait.
00:36:32.000 And so that's driving this apparent polarization far faster than I think it actually exists, because my sense is that the vast majority of people out there are pretty much the same as they were five years ago, and are vastly reasonable.
00:36:45.000 But there's an exaggeration of the ideological idiocy.
00:36:50.000 Now, I share your proclivity to think that a substantial amount of this is coming from the radical left.
00:36:57.000 You know, and I think that's partly because that's been subsidized in the universities.
00:37:01.000 That's a huge source of it.
00:37:03.000 But I think it's being exaggerated by the death throes of the classic media as these new technologies come up to supplant them.
00:37:11.000 They're getting increasingly desperate and telling more and more desperate stories in an attempt to hold on to the fragments of their audience.
00:37:17.000 And so it might be a mirage in some sense.
00:37:21.000 This increased polarization might be a mirage that's a consequence of the death spiral of the classic media.
00:37:27.000 Yeah, and I hate to disagree with Dr. Jordan Peterson, but I would slightly, because I agree with you on the radical left.
00:37:35.000 But here's something that I ask a lot of people, and I know you choose your words very carefully, so what do you think about it for a second?
00:37:40.000 This is a genuine question.
00:37:42.000 Can you name me anyone today, in 2018, Anyone on the national DNC platform bench who we wouldn't consider radical left?
00:37:51.000 Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Elizabeth Graham, Maxine Waters, Eric Schneiderman.
00:37:58.000 Can you name any one of them who would be as reasonable as people like even a Rubio on the right?
00:38:04.000 I can't find any.
00:38:05.000 I don't think it's a radical left when it's the whole platform.
00:38:09.000 Well, it's a good question, you know.
00:38:10.000 I mean, I think that the question is to what degree the moderate left has been willing or able to separate themselves from the radical left.
00:38:19.000 And this is a big problem.
00:38:20.000 I mean, one of the things I've been trying to puzzle out intellectually is, and I've been challenging the people that I'm speaking with, including the journalists, is like, we know the left can go too far, right?
00:38:31.000 That's a historical fact.
00:38:32.000 No one disputes that, if they have any sense.
00:38:35.000 The question is, when exactly does the left go too far?
00:38:38.000 What combination of policies do they put forth that produces the The proclivity towards tyranny and catastrophe that characterized the radical left movements in the 20th century.
00:38:50.000 And the answer is, nobody's been able to specify it.
00:38:53.000 Like, I think it's the triad, in what we're seeing right now, the triad of diversity, inclusivity and equity is a deadly triad, especially equity, because that's a cover for equality of outcome.
00:39:04.000 And I think equality of outcome doctrines are absolutely catastrophic.
00:39:07.000 I think identity politics itself, the idea that we're fundamentally defined by our group identity, I think that's an absolutely abhorrent policy.
00:39:16.000 And I think that the left has an absolute moral obligation to sort that out. But I would also say that it's a
00:39:23.000 technical problem for the rest of us, centrists and conservatives, as well as left-wingers, is
00:39:29.000 like, what exactly is it in the leftist policies that produce the catastrophic outcome?
00:39:35.000 Because one thing you can say about the left, I think about the necessity for the existence of
00:39:41.000 the left, is that hierarchies tend to dispossess people.
00:39:45.000 And that's a standard postmodernist claim, but it's also true.
00:39:49.000 And the dispossessed, the working class, let's say, need a voice.
00:39:53.000 But the problem is, is that too much concern in that direction starts to tilt and produce very pathological outcomes.
00:39:59.000 And we're certainly seeing that right now.
00:40:00.000 And we need to be able to sort it out.
00:40:02.000 Intellectually, when do they go too far?
00:40:06.000 The right goes too far when it makes claims of racial or ethnic superiority.
00:40:10.000 That's kind of the consensus, right?
00:40:12.000 But it's not so easy to put your finger on exactly when the left makes its fatal error.
00:40:16.000 Maybe it's a combination of policies, does it?
00:40:20.000 I don't even know that I would consider that necessarily right-wing, because the last people to do it were just racist socialists.
00:40:24.000 I mean, even if you look at the Tiki Torches guys today, if you look at their speeches, when they try to associate this with the right, they go, hold on, listen to their speeches.
00:40:30.000 They're talking about an expanded government welfare state, if only if we got rid of the blacks, browns, and Jews.
00:40:35.000 It's very, very left, and they have to be racist.
00:40:38.000 But let me ask you this.
00:40:39.000 Let me posit this, because you said, what is it, you know, as far as the left?
00:40:42.000 And you talked about the hierarchy, and we've talked about the mob mentality.
00:40:46.000 Could the through-line be Weakness.
00:40:49.000 Equality of outcomes?
00:40:50.000 That's a way for compensating for weakness.
00:40:52.000 The mob mentality?
00:40:53.000 It's to compensate for fear of your own weakness.
00:40:55.000 When you look at this demanded hierarchy, demanded power of the state, that's one thing that we've come in consistently, these people who make the threats, who call actions of violence, who paint their opposition as Nazis.
00:41:08.000 It seems to be very weak-minded people.
00:41:12.000 Well, it seems to me that it might be more associated with resentment.
00:41:17.000 You know, and it's resentment masquerading as compassion.
00:41:21.000 But the problem is, it's still hard to delimit as a policy.
00:41:24.000 Right.
00:41:25.000 You know, you said something that I thought was interesting about the right and the left.
00:41:30.000 The way that I've been conceptualizing the political landscape at the moment, you know, generally we think of right and left, and the distribution between them.
00:41:39.000 But I think, really, the right way of thinking about what's happening right now is it's collectivist versus individualist.
00:41:45.000 And then on the collectivist end, you have the left-wing collectivists and the right-wing collectivists.
00:41:49.000 And the left-wing collectivists are playing the victim narrative, and the right-wing collectivists are playing the ethnic identity card.
00:41:55.000 And so the real dispute is between the collectivists and the individualists.
00:42:01.000 And, you know, in my writings and in my tours and lectures and so forth, I've been making a very strong individualist case, because I think the idea that our And I think the leftists have the loudest collectivist voice at the moment.
00:42:12.000 Western societies, one of the ideas that we really got right
00:42:15.000 was the sovereignty of the individual, and the idea that when you look at the world, you should look at the world,
00:42:20.000 you should look at a world of individuals, whether that's historical or present or future. That should be your
00:42:25.000 conceptual framework, primarily focused on the individual.
00:42:28.000 And the collectivists, and I think the leftists have the loudest collectivist voice at the moment, the collectivists
00:42:34.000 insist that, no, there isn't any individual, there's just a collective. And it's interesting, too, because of
00:42:39.000 because of the left-wing assaults on free speech, I've been thinking of them through.
00:42:44.000 It isn't free speech that the radical leftists are mounting an assault on.
00:42:48.000 It's the idea that there is such a thing as free speech.
00:42:52.000 Because the radical leftist collectivist claim is that you can't speak as an individual, because there is no individuals.
00:42:59.000 You can only serve as a mouthpiece for the power claims of your group.
00:43:03.000 And that's an unbelievably pernicious ideology.
00:43:05.000 So I think it's the fundamental proclivity of the collectivists to view the world Through a lens that focuses everything on group identity, I think that's the real killer.
00:43:18.000 You're a buzzkill today, because you're not talking about policy, you're talking about deeply rooted, infectious ideology, and you're right!
00:43:25.000 Dammit, Jordan, you're right!
00:43:27.000 And so when I show up in ranger panties and an Uncle Sam costume and get my head almost knocked off, I feel like I have to do this, because they need to be afraid of somebody.
00:43:36.000 Well, I've got a question about that, too.
00:43:39.000 So you've been confronting people who are making claims of violence, and so let me ask you this, like, first of all... More actual plots.
00:43:47.000 Okay, so what's that been like for you, and do you feel that you're, like, are you inflaming things?
00:43:53.000 Are you satirizing them?
00:43:54.000 Like, what role do you think you're playing in this?
00:43:56.000 So a couple things, I think, and that's a good question.
00:43:59.000 You know, as we say in the video series, every time I move, I'm trying not to move with this ruffling here.
00:44:04.000 We have hours and hours and many, many, many dozens of millions of plays on Change My Mind videos, right?
00:44:09.000 Where we sit down and we say anyone can sit down and have a conversation and it's unedited.
00:44:13.000 This is what they say, discussions.
00:44:16.000 And this happened in Austin, where actually there were a few.
00:44:18.000 So, you know, we've taped a handful of these, by the way.
00:44:21.000 We just sit on the footage and let them lie about it, and then release the video, because it's more fun that way.
00:44:27.000 So we sat down, and we actually had a transgender city council candidate sit down for 40 minutes.
00:44:32.000 It was very civil.
00:44:33.000 She came back, and another changed my mind, and said, hey, thank you so much for being so polite.
00:44:37.000 Very, very nice.
00:44:38.000 So we had these, that's our goal.
00:44:40.000 But when you post our location and you actively plot to harm me or my crew, that changes things.
00:44:45.000 And the point here is no longer to convince these people who want acts of violence to stifle the conversation, but for people who may not be aware.
00:44:53.000 We have to understand this.
00:44:54.000 This is one thing that a lot of people don't understand.
00:44:55.000 Probably about 85% Maybe 90% of Americans, even those who are registered Republican or Democrats, they don't necessarily know what we know.
00:45:03.000 They don't live in this world.
00:45:05.000 They don't live in the YouTube and the blogosphere world.
00:45:07.000 They're not aware of how bad it is out there.
00:45:09.000 And so this kind of content, I can tell you, you can read the comment section, thousands of people going, I was just vaccinated against ever becoming a Democrat, or I cannot believe it has gotten this bad.
00:45:20.000 I really need to take an active role and join a local chapter.
00:45:23.000 You think these people only exist on Twitter?
00:45:26.000 I think they're just Twitter trolls.
00:45:26.000 Yeah.
00:45:27.000 You don't think, oh, these are real-life people.
00:45:29.000 And the truth is, we have eyes and ears everywhere, and it's very deeply rooted.
00:45:33.000 And, I mean, you know, we've had several people arrested, reported to police for other acts of violence, not including myself.
00:45:39.000 So that's the purpose for it.
00:45:41.000 Have a conversation.
00:45:42.000 When they try to stop it through violence, expose them to the rest of the world.
00:45:45.000 Yeah, okay.
00:45:46.000 And do you think, that seems, on the face of it, very reasonable.
00:45:50.000 Do you think, what's your sense?
00:45:52.000 Do you think that the The fact that you're bringing this to light is...
00:45:56.000 Doing more good than the fact that you're engaged in this is doing harm?
00:46:01.000 I do.
00:46:01.000 Yeah, I do.
00:46:02.000 And again, the reason why is because so many people are not aware.
00:46:05.000 And you get outside of you, myself, Ruben Shapiro, Rogans of the world, and a lot of people are not aware how bad the left has become.
00:46:13.000 And when they see 20, 30 people, and none of them will say, hold on a second, posting an address and saying, blow up this guy's van with people in it.
00:46:21.000 When no one will say that's bad, the millions of people watching go, Oh wow, this is something I need to be aware of.
00:46:27.000 I need to be careful here and know what the left is up to.
00:46:30.000 It does seem to fall under the auspices of self-defense in that situation.
00:46:38.000 I'm just curious about it, and it's not a criticism, it's genuine curiosity.
00:46:43.000 You have a large platform, and I'm trying to figure out ways that this can be discussed
00:46:50.000 and brought to light, say, that don't simultaneously produce the probability that the violence
00:46:55.000 is going to increase.
00:46:56.000 It's not an easy thing to do.
00:46:58.000 I mean, and your point is, well, it makes more sense to show what's going on, and that
00:47:04.000 that's the better strategy.
00:47:05.000 And I guess that's a free speech strategy in some sense, and it's one of the—
00:47:09.000 Our first strategy has changed my mind.
00:47:11.000 Our first strategy is open discussion.
00:47:13.000 It's like in combat sports.
00:47:14.000 We match intensity.
00:47:15.000 At a certain point, you've got to get your dukes up.
00:47:18.000 And there are a lot of other people out there who've— Yep.
00:47:21.000 sucker punched. A lot of other people who've had tires slashed or have been
00:47:24.000 actively, I mean, they handed you a knife for the Ben Shapiro event.
00:47:28.000 At a certain point, it doesn't, I don't believe it does anyone any favors to
00:47:32.000 sweep it under the rug in the hopes that these people will be peaceful, especially
00:47:35.000 when you have Maxine Waters out there encouraging it. They're getting more
00:47:38.000 violent and it really worries me and I do think sunlight for that is the best
00:47:43.000 disinfectant provided you are also having discussions and rational debates
00:47:47.000 which we do and number one of course it's wildly entertaining because this is a comedy.
00:47:51.000 And what do you think the consequences of these change my mind events that you've been having?
00:47:58.000 Yeah, those have been... I mean, we've... I mean, how many millions of comments and people who've actively changed their minds?
00:48:03.000 I mean, I can tell you six figures of people who've become pro-life from watching that, which for us is great.
00:48:11.000 Okay, so you think you have some credible evidence that the rational discussion end of it is actually producing some real exchange of views and some transformation of outcome?
00:48:22.000 So that would be good.
00:48:22.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:48:24.000 Yeah, I think it's a good thing.
00:48:25.000 I think the number one thing is, you know, the show has to be obviously entertaining.
00:48:28.000 It's a late-night show.
00:48:29.000 But the point is, we have eyes and ears and our roots really deeply rooted in the leftist activism.
00:48:35.000 I mean, the FBI has been calling our guys for information on Antifa since Utah because of how far we've gotten into their cryptic messaging.
00:48:44.000 And I can tell people this, it's gotten a lot worse.
00:48:47.000 The rumblings are a lot worse, including for yourself.
00:48:49.000 Well, I've been fortunate.
00:48:51.000 Well, none of my none of my shows have been protested except one in Portland.
00:48:56.000 And there was about 50 people.
00:48:57.000 Surprise, surprise.
00:48:59.000 And there was about 50 people there.
00:49:01.000 And there was a couple of Antifa types and they were dressed in black with masks, you know, and that that anonymization of protesters, that's a very dangerous thing.
00:49:09.000 You know, when someone shows up and they're dressed in black and they have a mask and you can't tell who they are, you know, absolutely.
00:49:15.000 They're up to no good.
00:49:16.000 It's like the real life YouTube comment section where people live anonymously.
00:49:19.000 So they say whatever they want.
00:49:20.000 It's the same thing.
00:49:21.000 Yeah.
00:49:22.000 Now take that- I would say anonymity in those situations is the hallmark of a dangerous coward.
00:49:30.000 And so for those of you who are out there hiding behind anonymity, you know, that's how you're manifesting yourself in reality.
00:49:37.000 Dangerous coward.
00:49:39.000 And that's a big part of this, too, is unmasking the anonymity, if only for the most violent and the most egregious offenders.
00:49:45.000 All right.
00:49:46.000 The book, of course, is Twelve Rules for Life.
00:49:48.000 Highly recommended if you want to be productive.
00:49:50.000 Also, if you want to learn about lobsters.
00:49:52.000 Always love that tidbit when I read this book.
00:49:54.000 And hey, where's the best place for people to follow your tour if they're not aware yet that you might be in their city?
00:50:00.000 Oh, they can go to Jordan.
00:50:02.000 Go to my website, JordanBPeterson.com, and look up events.
00:50:06.000 And I think that discount voucher I made for your people for self-authoring is still available, too.
00:50:12.000 Okay, for self-authoring.com.
00:50:13.000 I think it's Crowder, right?
00:50:15.000 Yeah, that's right.
00:50:17.000 And I highly recommend it.
00:50:18.000 SelfAuthoring.com.
00:50:19.000 12 rules for life.
00:50:20.000 Get the book.
00:50:21.000 Dr. Peterson, thank you so much.
00:50:22.000 We have Nick DiPaolo coming up.
00:50:23.000 Please stay safe and enjoy your shows.
00:50:25.000 Yep.
00:50:27.000 One live read of the week.
00:50:32.000 And this one is, of course, actually from Mug Club.
00:50:35.000 So I want to show you something really quickly.
00:50:37.000 We did this Crowder Confronts video this week, and Nakajima can bring this up.
00:50:41.000 You can see YouTube has said that their algorithms will be based on interactions, comments, and likes.
00:50:45.000 That's how they want to feature videos.
00:50:47.000 That's what determines views, but there's a disproportionate number of comments and likes if you look at our videos, the catalog.
00:50:54.000 I mean, it's exponentially higher than comparable videos on the left with far lower view count, and we're going to try and get to the bottom of it, but all of them are demonetized, of course.
00:51:03.000 LoudEarthCrowder.com slash MugClub is the only thing that allows us to continue to do these videos, whether it's Change My Mind, whether it's Undercover Investigations, because these videos are very costly, labor-intensive, and we don't make a dime off of most of these videos on YouTube.
00:51:17.000 So, the paid content, where the daily show, the full 45-minute show, what you watch here Thursday, if you like it, you get it every day.
00:51:22.000 LoudEarthCrowder.com slash MugClub, $99.69 for students, veterans, or active military.
00:51:26.000 You can get a week trial.
00:51:28.000 It's the only way to help us fight back here on YouTube, because the squeeze is...
00:51:33.000 Becoming tighter and tighter, and if you don't want to, and you just enjoy the free content, that's absolutely fine too, but, you know, it can't sustain itself without your support, and we appreciate everyone who does.
00:51:41.000 Thank you.
00:51:43.000 ♪♪♪ That's the second native dance of Honduras.
00:51:47.000 That's the second native dance of Honduras.
00:51:51.000 Really?
00:51:52.000 It's unlicensed.
00:51:53.000 It's the unlicensed official dance of Honduras.
00:51:55.000 You know, I realize I don't know anything about Honduras, outside of obviously the soaring murder rate.
00:52:00.000 That's all you need to know, because after that, the travel guide is useless.
00:52:04.000 Coffee and tobacco.
00:52:05.000 Oh.
00:52:06.000 Is there anything else?
00:52:07.000 No, but you can import those.
00:52:08.000 Don't go there for them.
00:52:09.000 Do not go there.
00:52:10.000 They have pension plans for kidnapping in Honduras.
00:52:14.000 Our next guest, a huge fan.
00:52:15.000 I've talked about this before, and I've said there are two people who I believe are the funniest comedians ever.
00:52:22.000 Norm Macdonald, who has not been on the show, and the next man who's been on the show.
00:52:26.000 These two have always been my top favorite for the last few years.
00:52:28.000 One of the funniest men on the face of the earth.
00:52:30.000 Nick DiPaolo, you can follow him at Nick DiPaolo.
00:52:32.000 How are you, sir?
00:52:34.000 Steven.
00:52:36.000 Thank you so much.
00:52:36.000 Quite a compliment.
00:52:37.000 Norm's my favorite.
00:52:40.000 Really, I appreciate it.
00:52:41.000 Why do you dress like a broken condom?
00:52:43.000 Well, to appropriate is to appreciate, Culture.
00:52:47.000 I don't know what kind of condoms you've been wearing, but you might need to call a doctor.
00:52:52.000 Well, I get black ones to fool people.
00:52:57.000 You look like a d*** that busted through a condom!
00:53:00.000 You're bleeding on the tip, which I've had happen.
00:53:03.000 That sounds like a wonderful leading.
00:53:06.000 You know, I hadn't really looked until I saw myself on the monitor.
00:53:09.000 That's what you would consider a bikini in Honduras.
00:53:13.000 Yes, yes, that's considered a bikini.
00:53:14.000 Actually, this is more so what they swim with in Saudi Arabia.
00:53:16.000 Have you ever seen the aerial shots of Saudi Arabia?
00:53:18.000 The women, just thousands of women drowning in their full-on burqas in the water?
00:53:23.000 I don't need an aerial shot.
00:53:24.000 I have a summer home over there.
00:53:28.000 All right, so Nick, you have, by the way, where's the best place to go to download your show now online, the podcast?
00:53:35.000 The new podcast is going to be debuting, we're shooting for July 9th.
00:53:40.000 Okay.
00:53:41.000 And where they want to go is patreon.com.
00:53:44.000 Forward slash The Nick DiPaolo Show.
00:53:47.000 If they go there tonight, that page should be up.
00:53:50.000 So eventually the show will sit on my home site, nickdip.com.
00:53:54.000 But if they want to subscribe and get in on it early, they go there tonight, patreon.com forward slash The Nick DiPaolo Show.
00:54:02.000 You can give incentives at Patreon, too.
00:54:04.000 If they give $50, they get a private conversation.
00:54:06.000 $100, they get a broken black condom.
00:54:08.000 That's exactly right.
00:54:09.000 We have a three-tier system.
00:54:13.000 It's true.
00:54:14.000 Fredo is the cheapest one.
00:54:14.000 This is what I made it.
00:54:17.000 Sonny... How much do I have to pay to get you to strangle the woman who punched you in Birkenstocks with a piano wire?
00:54:27.000 Sorry, can I not say that?
00:54:28.000 I'm going to hire somebody.
00:54:29.000 Yeah.
00:54:33.000 I'm not going to mess with you.
00:54:35.000 Here's the lead-in.
00:54:35.000 Yes!
00:54:36.000 Anthony Comey had talked about this last week, and I didn't know.
00:54:38.000 I'm so sorry.
00:54:39.000 I wasn't up to date on this.
00:54:41.000 A lady punched you in the face.
00:54:44.000 Explain for people who don't know the story yet, because I know it's bad.
00:54:48.000 It is kind of funny, though, so explain it.
00:54:50.000 Yes.
00:54:51.000 Very funny.
00:54:52.000 Now that the swelling has gone down, I have my sight back.
00:54:55.000 It's hilarious!
00:54:58.000 I was at a comedy club, Levity Live, which is on the Jersey side of the Tappan Zee Bridge.
00:55:04.000 It's still New York State.
00:55:06.000 Palisades.
00:55:07.000 It's a beautiful club, Levity Live.
00:55:08.000 I love it.
00:55:09.000 It's one of the nicest clubs in the country.
00:55:11.000 And it was Father's Day night.
00:55:13.000 After the show, I come out and people are filing out an exit door to the left of the stage instead of out the back.
00:55:19.000 So I start shaking hands and taking pictures.
00:55:22.000 This guy approaches me and says, uh, can I get a picture with you?
00:55:25.000 I said, sure.
00:55:25.000 He stands to my right, shaking my hand, and he says, boy, I like the show a lot, but my daughter wanted to punch you in the face.
00:55:32.000 He didn't even finish the word face, and I got sucker punched from my left.
00:55:36.000 I didn't even know she was standing there.
00:55:38.000 And, I mean, cracked.
00:55:40.000 Yeah.
00:55:40.000 And, uh, like I was, you know, I was stunned or in shock.
00:55:43.000 But even while I was in shock and stunned, my first instinct was to look at the father and say, did you just set me up, dude?
00:55:51.000 I mean, it was almost like on cue.
00:55:53.000 I mean, at the end of her, it was like a sitcom.
00:55:55.000 That's my question.
00:55:56.000 What did the dad do there?
00:55:57.000 I mean, did he spank her?
00:55:59.000 He didn't, and his reaction, again, this is speculation on my part, but I really, I really believe, you know the level these f***ing people operate at.
00:56:08.000 Yes.
00:56:09.000 So, I really think it was a setup.
00:56:12.000 First of all, they had, you don't just wander into a Nick DiPaolo show, at least, you usually know what's coming.
00:56:17.000 You should, yes, yes, particularly, which is why people should go to nickdip.com and check out the rest of your tour dates because our fans love it.
00:56:24.000 No punches, just laughs.
00:56:25.000 Yeah, so he, Yeah, I mean, I look right at him, and I don't remember him restraining her or going, what are you doing?
00:56:34.000 So his reaction was kind of weird, too.
00:56:36.000 But then, you know, then the whole thing moved out to the lobby, and he said, well, you know, my daughter has emotional problems, and I shouldn't have brought her above the ship.
00:56:48.000 Another reason to say you weaponize your daughter, basically.
00:56:51.000 Yeah, exactly, exercising that female privilege where she can punch a man consequence-free.
00:56:54.000 Could you imagine?
00:56:56.000 The headlines, if Amy Schumer got slugged outside of an event, outside of a gig.
00:57:02.000 I said that because every time I do an interview, a lot of people, well, both sides are getting pretty, I said, don't f***ing equivocate.
00:57:07.000 No.
00:57:07.000 Show an example of a straight white male comedy club audience member going after a black comic, a gay comic, a female comic, because of their act.
00:57:17.000 I actually looked at her right after she hit me and I said, why'd you do that?
00:57:19.000 She says, you're mean.
00:57:21.000 And then she started bawling.
00:57:23.000 Okay, she had that right.
00:57:24.000 I mean, even the broken clock is right, wasn't it?
00:57:26.000 Right.
00:57:27.000 But she, you know, up in the lobby, you know, when the father tried to talk to me, I said, no, go get away.
00:57:33.000 Then she starts bawling.
00:57:35.000 She starts bawling?
00:57:37.000 Thank God she didn't think you were evil!
00:57:38.000 Yeah, thank God!
00:57:39.000 Thank God she didn't call you a Nazi like it was me, you know?
00:57:42.000 They would have lined you up for the firing squad.
00:57:44.000 I really do believe, Nick, because I was just talking with Dr. Peterson about this, and I respectfully disagreed.
00:57:47.000 We were saying, you know, the radical left, the radical right.
00:57:50.000 And I asked him a question, and I don't think we really got an answer on it.
00:57:54.000 And I understand because he wanted to speak kind of in the more general sense of where we are as a country.
00:57:58.000 That's a conversation, too.
00:57:59.000 But I said, hold on, we talk about the radical left.
00:58:01.000 Is there anyone on the national DNC platform Well, yeah, and I don't even throw her in the far-left category.
00:58:06.000 Wasserman Schultz, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Maxine Waters, all of them are this
00:58:11.000 Pelosi are this bad.
00:58:13.000 And if if they're not flirting with these kinds of people, they're outright demanding
00:58:18.000 this kind of action.
00:58:19.000 We see it all the time.
00:58:20.000 It's not both sides.
00:58:21.000 And I'm really sorry you had to deal with that.
00:58:22.000 It's horrible.
00:58:23.000 Well, yeah.
00:58:24.000 And I don't even throw her in the far left caterpillar.
00:58:26.000 She's a 20 year old college student.
00:58:28.000 So this is about par for the course for the left right now.
00:58:32.000 Yeah, she's not fringe.
00:58:33.000 She's not fringe, no.
00:58:35.000 She should be volunteering summers at the registrar's office.
00:58:39.000 Yeah, no, exactly.
00:58:41.000 So, you know, and she, you know, I don't want to hear about all mental illness or whatever.
00:58:46.000 She could take care of herself at college, so she can't be that, you know.
00:58:52.000 So yeah, my eye was, it was growing.
00:58:58.000 I was like, what the f**k is that?
00:58:59.000 I could feel it growing.
00:59:00.000 And now I know what a boxer goes through.
00:59:01.000 I could hardly see after like a minute.
00:59:06.000 And then they tried to, you know, I told the staff, hold them and get the cops.
00:59:10.000 I had to tell people what to do.
00:59:12.000 And so the cops showed up after about five minutes.
00:59:15.000 She thought you said get the c**ks.
00:59:16.000 That's why she got... Yeah, then you were part of the hashtag me too.
00:59:20.000 No, she would have ran out of there if I said that.
00:59:23.000 Well, hold on a second.
00:59:24.000 She was crying after she punched you?
00:59:27.000 Well, after I told her father, yeah, you better get a lawyer, dude.
00:59:30.000 You're in deep shit.
00:59:31.000 He went over and told her that.
00:59:33.000 I'm not a litigious guy.
00:59:34.000 I know.
00:59:35.000 The only thing I hate more than lawyers are f****** feminists, Joe.
00:59:40.000 It reminds me of the scene in Life Aquatic where Jeff Goldblum walks over and disciplines the other guy's dog with a rolled up paper.
00:59:46.000 I mean, you know, I really do hope that this gets resolved and justice is served.
00:59:52.000 But I will say this.
00:59:53.000 I remember having this conversation with Joe and with yourself. I remember at one point saying like, ah,
00:59:58.000 I don't think this is ever going to come to the clubs because you and I both agreed like, we won't
01:00:01.000 do colleges anymore. I said, I think you'll be surprised. I think that business owners
01:00:06.000 have to be careful, if only for situations like now you've just described. Well, here it is. Now they've
01:00:10.000 come for the clubs. Yeah. Yeah.
01:00:13.000 You know, and I, I, security wasn't around because I wasn't planning on shaking hands.
01:00:22.000 You know how clubs have now?
01:00:23.000 They actually have a backdrop you stand in front of, and that's up in the lobby.
01:00:28.000 I just happened to come out of the green room.
01:00:29.000 I went in after the show ended.
01:00:30.000 I went in the green room for a few minutes, came back out, and they just happened to be filing out.
01:00:34.000 So I started shaking hands.
01:00:37.000 Sort of an impromptu meet-and-greet.
01:00:41.000 I'll knock it, Jared, as a question, I think.
01:00:43.000 It's just a thought that nowhere else but the internet in 2018 has this really happened because people are formulating these negative thoughts about comedians in the comedy clubs.
01:00:51.000 There used to be a day where you had to go and see them in the comedy club to witness their act.
01:00:55.000 And then ruminate for a bit.
01:00:56.000 Yeah, and if you didn't like them there, then you're the butthole.
01:00:59.000 Yes.
01:01:00.000 But now you can go home, watch the clips on Twitter, and formulate opinions that you're not saying.
01:01:03.000 It usually takes people a long weekend to realize they don't like Nick.
01:01:06.000 Yeah.
01:01:06.000 Exactly.
01:01:07.000 I'm sorry.
01:01:08.000 My wife is around 24 years, she's still not sure.
01:01:16.000 It's a long waiver.
01:01:19.000 I think I was the first comment to start saying this.
01:01:21.000 I started saying this five years ago.
01:01:23.000 Now I see everybody saying this.
01:01:25.000 But when people walk out of my show, maybe even more than five years ago, I will yell to them, did you do your research before you came to the club?
01:01:33.000 See who the headliner was.
01:01:35.000 You know?
01:01:36.000 You don't go walk into a f***ing music venue expecting to see Zeppelin and, you know, be surprised it's Men Without Hats.
01:01:44.000 They think comedy is a homogenous thing.
01:01:51.000 We all have the same sense of humor.
01:01:53.000 That's why I think, and I'm not super famous, so yeah, there are people who wander into my show who might not know me, but not too many anymore.
01:02:00.000 I've been doing this a long time.
01:02:01.000 The way this went down, putting two and two together, I don't doubt that they sat at their house and said, I hate this guy.
01:02:08.000 He's a racist.
01:02:08.000 Let's go to a show.
01:02:10.000 Again, speculation.
01:02:11.000 I can't even get a call back from the Assistant District Attorney.
01:02:16.000 Yeah, I can imagine.
01:02:19.000 What if I hit her, Steven?
01:02:20.000 I'd be in jail for 11 days now.
01:02:22.000 Well, don't do it, as much as I'd like to.
01:02:25.000 And if you do, televise it.
01:02:27.000 And we'll be sure to get exclusive rights here on the channel.
01:02:30.000 Here's what I will say.
01:02:31.000 We do have to get going.
01:02:32.000 When we get off air here in a little bit, let me talk with you.
01:02:36.000 We have someone who might be able to help out the beast and see what's going on, if we can get some info on this person.
01:02:41.000 Because we've been doing this segment here, Crowder Confronts, recently, where we can find almost... We can send a missile Up your posterior from anywhere in the country right now, know where you are, who you're with at any given moment, and I bet you we could probably find out who this person is and what the plans were.
01:02:56.000 I'd like to help you, if we can.
01:02:58.000 I know them.
01:03:00.000 You mean who the... No, no, no, but we'll talk more about it off-air.
01:03:04.000 Off-air.
01:03:04.000 I would like to help you with this.
01:03:05.000 I don't know who these people or persons are.
01:03:08.000 I would never mention because, you know... Look, we...
01:03:13.000 We can't hit back.
01:03:14.000 We got it.
01:03:15.000 True gender equality.
01:03:16.000 I could have popped her in the face and everybody would have said she had that coming.
01:03:19.000 And we went on our merry way.
01:03:22.000 Seriously, that's I don't think that's what they would have said.
01:03:24.000 That is true gender equality.
01:03:26.000 Yes.
01:03:27.000 And so I didn't do that.
01:03:29.000 So I'm going to take it to the courts.
01:03:31.000 I don't give it.
01:03:32.000 I don't care how long it takes.
01:03:33.000 I'm going to make an example of this person.
01:03:36.000 No, I agree.
01:03:37.000 And we've worked a lot with, we were just talking with Jordan Peterson about this, with the police, with Antifa in Utah and some information.
01:03:43.000 And sometimes these people actually reveal a little more information than you might even know.
01:03:47.000 So I'd like to be able to help you with that.
01:03:48.000 But yeah, what you need to do is get in a DeLorean, Just go through some HRT, go back to her wrestling meet, and win it.
01:03:57.000 Win the state title.
01:03:58.000 Because that's okay now!
01:03:59.000 So it's nickdip.com.
01:04:01.000 You can follow him at Nick DiPaolo.

01:04:07.000 Patreon.com forward slash The Nick DiPaolo Show.

01:04:17.000 And it's gonna be great.
01:04:18.000 I'll be streaming live audio and video all over the place.
01:04:22.000 And we're doing it right.
01:04:23.000 I'm in the sound booth's call screen in the booth right now.
01:04:26.000 Oh, but it sounds like you're in a men's truck stop in Connecticut.
01:04:29.000 We gotta go!
01:04:29.000 Nick, thank you so much!
01:04:30.000 We'll be right back.
01:04:31.000 It's been a while.
01:04:32.000 Dum de dum, ding, dum dum.
01:04:35.000 These days on the right, things can seem pretty rough if you just watch mainstream news.
01:04:41.000 College campuses are full of Bernie bros.
01:04:44.000 No love for us on YouTube.
01:04:48.000 But there's one thing you've got to understand.
01:04:55.000 The left has no long-term plan.
01:05:00.000 So we keep winning so much these days.
01:05:06.000 We drove Maxine Waters crazy.
01:05:12.000 You wanna hang with people who respect the Constitution and don't act rude.
01:05:18.000 You wanna be where people don't just blame white dudes.
01:05:22.000 We got judges now who aren't super pumped about killing babies.
01:05:34.000 Chuck Schumer is pissed and I'm pretty sure Nancy Pelosi has rabies.
01:05:41.000 Our economy is doing great.
01:05:48.000 And we don't have to bake your cake.
01:05:53.000 We keep winning so much these days.
01:05:57.000 It drove Maxine Waters crazy.
01:06:04.000 You want to hang with people who respect the Constitution and don't act rude.
01:06:10.000 You wanna be where people don't just blame white dudes You
01:06:17.000 You You
01:07:03.000 Everyone else make it out okay?
01:07:05.000 You made it.
01:07:05.000 I made it, yeah.
01:07:07.000 Thanks for asking.
01:07:07.000 Sounds like I'm being waterboarded.
01:07:08.000 There's one person here who's been waterboarded.
01:07:10.000 Eh, whatever.
01:07:11.000 And it's the boss.
01:07:12.000 Very little.
01:07:13.000 Thanks so much to Dr. Jordan Peterson, Nick DiPaolo.
01:07:15.000 Next week, we don't have any shows, but we do have a giant 4th of July themed Change My Mind on Monday.
01:07:22.000 Monday?
01:07:22.000 That's huge.
01:07:23.000 That's July 3rd, Monday?
01:07:24.000 July 2nd.
01:07:25.000 America is superior to all other countries.
01:07:27.000 Change My Mind.
01:07:28.000 And that's it.
01:07:29.000 Gerald, because you had a point.
01:07:31.000 I did have a point.
01:07:32.000 I asked you a question earlier.
01:07:33.000 Why is it that, you know, there's nothing that would seem to change their mind on Donald Trump?
01:07:37.000 Why is that always the case with power?
01:07:38.000 Anytime somebody comes along and actually does something good and it threatens your power base, you just completely ignore all the good.
01:07:45.000 Yeah.
01:07:45.000 And just go after protecting your power.
01:07:46.000 That's exactly what the Democrats are doing right now.
01:07:48.000 He could come along and cure cancer, and we've said this before, literally, and they would find a problem with it.
01:07:54.000 They would say that it's bad for the medical field or something.
01:07:55.000 Let me ask you this.
01:07:56.000 What's good about Bernie Sanders?
01:07:57.000 There's nothing good about Bernie Sanders.
01:07:58.000 Yeah, you're doing the exact same thing!
01:07:59.000 No, I'm not doing the exact same thing.
01:08:01.000 If Bernie Sanders could bring something good to the table, like if he had an economic plan that was good, then I would say that's good.
01:08:06.000 He doesn't!
01:08:06.000 He has socialism!
01:08:07.000 You got nothin'!
01:08:08.000 You got nothin' at all!
01:08:10.000 Jesus raised a guy from the dead, they tried to kill the Lord!
01:08:12.000 The same thing!
01:08:14.000 Trump's not God.
01:08:14.000 Don't get me wrong.
01:08:16.000 No, I think you're right.
01:08:17.000 And that's why I said, I mean, you've admitted that you were wrong on a lot of it.
01:08:20.000 I was.
01:08:21.000 And I was definitely wrong on a lot of it.
01:08:22.000 And I think some, I really, you know, the arrogance of some of the pseudo-intellectual conservative right sometimes.
01:08:29.000 Listen, you've also got to be, there are things that he does that I disagree with.
01:08:32.000 Of course.
01:08:32.000 But you've also got to acknowledge some of the things that he does.
01:08:36.000 That'd have been good, and I'm surprised.
01:08:37.000 It actually would lend them more credibility for us to listen if they would just acknowledge a few good things.
01:08:43.000 They can't.
01:08:43.000 Same thing happened with Obama.
01:08:44.000 I'm like, okay, actually, this is a good thing.
01:08:47.000 Yeah.
01:08:48.000 It's much easier to conversate.
01:08:50.000 Well, conversate, as Dennis Rodman would say.
01:08:54.000 I'm just so happy.
01:08:55.000 I've never seen you and Rodman in the same room, that's all I'm saying there.
01:08:57.000 No, no, no.
01:08:59.000 So, last week some people were a little upset, A, that I did the drowning dance as Moses, didn't take advantage, and B, some people didn't think it was, you know, this last segment is usually somewhat inspirational.
01:09:08.000 So let me shorten this for you really quickly.
01:09:10.000 You want some self-help tips, here's the stuff that gurus aren't telling you.
01:09:13.000 A lot of people say, well, hold on, sometimes your advice contradicts your previous advice.
01:09:16.000 You talk about working hard, but then you talk about being disciplined with rest.
01:09:19.000 Not all life tips, okay?
01:09:21.000 And we get a lot of these requests coming in by email.
01:09:24.000 A lot of people, you know, the person who sent his Navy Cross, people who have unbelievably touching, moving stories.
01:09:30.000 These are the people I try to respond to.
01:09:31.000 Not people who are just looking for get-rich-quick schemes.
01:09:35.000 Which, by the way, we're not rich.
01:09:36.000 We have a semi-successful online show, late-night show, okay?
01:09:39.000 No one here has their own Learjet.
01:09:42.000 Not like the Raelian cult, the guy who led them.
01:09:44.000 That's what you do, you start a cult.
01:09:45.000 So not all life tips, and this is one thing because everyone wants to say, they're not for all people at all times.
01:09:50.000 So if you're on a bike, Gerald knows this, you're about to climb a mountain, it's going to be very different advice from if you're speeding downhill.
01:09:55.000 Absolutely.
01:09:55.000 Right?
01:09:56.000 It's an entirely different tact.
01:09:57.000 Can't believe you just used a cycling term.
01:09:59.000 But is that not true?
01:10:00.000 It's absolutely true.
01:10:01.000 So first one is simple, right?
01:10:03.000 For most people, you've got to start pedaling.
01:10:06.000 Most people are just sitting on a bike.
01:10:08.000 That's it.
01:10:09.000 First tip for life.
01:10:10.000 Move.
01:10:11.000 That's it.
01:10:12.000 Just start pedaling.
01:10:14.000 That's going to be one of the harder parts, is move.
01:10:16.000 If things aren't improving, just start moving.
01:10:20.000 There you go.
01:10:20.000 I'll give you a little bit of an Al Sharpton there.
01:10:21.000 I didn't even intend to.
01:10:23.000 You don't need to worry about wasted motion yet, or wasted energy because you're just a lethargic Blob, okay?
01:10:31.000 You're not using any energy, so don't worry about conserving it.
01:10:33.000 The first step is move.
01:10:35.000 Getting a bike started is a lot harder than keeping it in motion.
01:10:39.000 Most people never create a goal and chart a path.
01:10:41.000 This one's because there's a little bit of an email that kind of ticked me off.
01:10:43.000 It's just someone who thought they had it figured out, but like, I just need this little... No, no, let me tell you.
01:10:47.000 You don't have any of it figured out, okay?
01:10:49.000 Some people don't.
01:10:49.000 I didn't at one point.
01:10:52.000 But this is a little bit of tough love.
01:10:53.000 This tin can might hit you in the teeth.
01:10:55.000 A lot of people never actually start down the path if they do chart a path.
01:10:58.000 So do something.
01:10:59.000 That's the first step.
01:11:00.000 Now, once you're moving, once you've actually been putting in the reps, you need to challenge yourself.
01:11:04.000 Every now and then you need to do something as hard as you possibly can.
01:11:07.000 So you start moving.
01:11:08.000 Here's tip two.
01:11:08.000 As hard as you can, find your breaking point.
01:11:11.000 Sprint up that hill.
01:11:13.000 As fast, as hard as you can.
01:11:15.000 Feel your legs burn.
01:11:16.000 Feel yourself burn.
01:11:17.000 Feel yourself really close as though you're just about to die, only to see that crest.
01:11:22.000 If you never redline the engine, if you never push yourself as hard as you can, it doesn't matter whether it's in business, whether it's in sports, whether it's in actual cycling, whether it's in being the best husband you can be, whether it's being the best boss you can be, whether it's using your influence as best as you can, you never get to see that sunset over the hill.
01:11:38.000 So every now and then, sprint as hard as you can.
01:11:40.000 Start by moving, if you're doing nothing.
01:11:42.000 That's the bulk of you.
01:11:43.000 And push yourself.
01:11:44.000 Challenge yourself.
01:11:45.000 Find out your limits.
01:11:46.000 Then, between all that, is the most important.
01:11:49.000 We've talked about this with Brian Shaw.
01:11:50.000 We have top athletes on the show.
01:11:52.000 The in-betweens.
01:11:52.000 You hear me talk about this?
01:11:53.000 The in-between the hills, right?
01:11:54.000 In-between the beautiful scenic views.
01:11:56.000 You just gotta keep moving.
01:11:57.000 You gotta keep pedaling.
01:11:58.000 A lot of times people think it's the sprints.
01:12:00.000 And some people are better at downhill.
01:12:02.000 And it's the people who are consistent.
01:12:04.000 At the end of this finish line, consistency is key.
01:12:07.000 And be deliberate about resting.
01:12:10.000 Okay, at this point, because you've already started moving, now people are like, oh, Steven said be deliberate about rest.
01:12:14.000 You haven't even pedaled, son!
01:12:18.000 Be disciplined about resting.
01:12:19.000 Be disciplined about pedaling.
01:12:20.000 Be disciplined about working.
01:12:21.000 When no one's watching, when it's not sexy, that's the bulk of everything in life.
01:12:25.000 The unsexy in-betweens make up, I'd say, 80% of life's success, whether it's your marriage, whether it's your business, whether it's your job, whether it's your athletic, your body, your health, and no one wants to hear it.
01:12:36.000 80% of success comes from unsexy in-betweens when no one is watching.
01:12:41.000 It's not some inspiring journey with a beautiful Monet backdrop.
01:12:44.000 So you need to learn to love, or at the very least, love why you're doing the in-betweens.
01:12:49.000 And if you do all this, this is one thing too, when we did the SMU show, it was so big, and I spoke with Nakajara, I was like, I'm not really comfortable with a certain level of success.
01:13:00.000 Why?
01:13:00.000 Because no one prepares you for it.
01:13:03.000 So if you're lucky enough, and there's something no one prepares you for, success.
01:13:06.000 You know why?
01:13:07.000 Because people who are successful don't make up the market share of BS self-help books.
01:13:11.000 There's not a huge selling off.
01:13:13.000 That's why I had to stop going to a church that one time we attended, because every single time the pastor spoke, it was talking about the broken, the damage, and how the Lord will heal you.
01:13:21.000 And the Lord will heal you, okay?
01:13:22.000 He absolutely will.
01:13:23.000 I believe as a Christian.
01:13:24.000 But I'd never heard a message about people who'd had their crap together and how they could help heal others.
01:13:29.000 So most people want to feel sorry for themselves.
01:13:31.000 It's safe.
01:13:32.000 Most people like the crutch of, oh, well, someday I'll get there.
01:13:34.000 Here's a secret.
01:13:35.000 Most people don't want to get there.
01:13:36.000 They think they do, but they don't.
01:13:38.000 They fear true success.
01:13:39.000 They're repelled by it.
01:13:40.000 I've seen it time and time again.
01:13:41.000 So this is the part that no one prepares you for.
01:13:43.000 Step one, move.
01:13:45.000 All right?
01:13:45.000 Step two, redline it every now and then to know how far you can take yourself.
01:13:49.000 Step three, the in-betweens.
01:13:50.000 Then success.
01:13:51.000 Let's say you've crested.
01:13:52.000 You've seen that sunset.
01:13:53.000 You're going downhill.
01:13:54.000 You've got a tailwind.
01:13:55.000 You don't have to pedal as hard.
01:13:57.000 You know this, you're moving a lot faster.
01:13:58.000 Oh yeah.
01:13:59.000 That's where a lot of the crashes happen.
01:14:01.000 Almost all of the crashes.
01:14:03.000 It's because it's one of the most straining parts of life.
01:14:06.000 Of the journey, to use a term.
01:14:08.000 But...
01:14:09.000 It's in a way that's the opposite of that.
01:14:11.000 It's the least physically straining and it's one of the most mentally taxing.
01:14:15.000 Now, it requires something that a lot of people haven't learned because you can't learn this until you get there.
01:14:20.000 What's most important once you're successful?
01:14:22.000 Once you've gotten moving?
01:14:24.000 Think about anything you've accomplished, right?
01:14:25.000 Whether you're good in hockey, whether you're a star student, athlete, whether you're a leader at your church.
01:14:31.000 Control.
01:14:31.000 You reach that point where, OK, I've learned how to play guitar.
01:14:34.000 OK, I've learned how to skate.
01:14:36.000 OK, I've learned how to be... Now what comes into play more is control.
01:14:40.000 Control of your bike.
01:14:41.000 Control of yourself.
01:14:43.000 Everything's speeding by.
01:14:44.000 This is why you feel unstoppable once you get success.
01:14:46.000 Everyone wants to be your friend.
01:14:47.000 Right?
01:14:48.000 Money, women, or men.
01:14:49.000 Whatever you want.
01:14:50.000 It could be success in your marriage.
01:14:51.000 It could be success at school.
01:14:53.000 Anything.
01:14:53.000 It could be success.
01:14:53.000 Take your pick.
01:14:54.000 But the second you hit that stride is when temptation comes.
01:14:58.000 Not only from external sources, but internally.
01:15:01.000 You forget to control the bike and you crash.
01:15:03.000 How many cautionary tales have we seen?
01:15:05.000 Just in our experience since having done this show.
01:15:07.000 Since the show started.
01:15:09.000 People who just faded away or burned out.
01:15:11.000 Even in this exact movement, I'm sure you can think of a few.
01:15:14.000 It's why after SMU and this kind of crazy ascent to what moderate level of success we've had, a very visceral, borderline crisis, because I didn't I didn't want to be like that.
01:15:25.000 I'm seeing so many people who've hit this level of success, and then it just goes away.
01:15:29.000 I didn't want to squander our influence or our responsibility.
01:15:32.000 So here, you want to be successful?
01:15:33.000 It's simple.
01:15:33.000 Move, do something, anything, start moving, then push your limits, okay?
01:15:38.000 The bulk of it is the in-betweens.
01:15:39.000 When no one's looking, how are you acting?
01:15:41.000 How are you behaving when no one is watching?
01:15:43.000 And then finally, if you're lucky enough to have charted a path and reached success, Not many do.
01:15:48.000 Even fewer hold on to it.
01:15:50.000 Control.
01:15:50.000 Be in control.
01:15:51.000 Be master of your own domain.
01:15:53.000 And guess what?
01:15:54.000 You can't if you didn't follow steps one through three.
01:15:56.000 That's why people who win the lottery kill themselves in record numbers.
01:16:00.000 Or transgenders.
01:16:00.000 But right now we're using a different analogy.
01:16:02.000 People who become overnight sensations, they never hold on to success.
01:16:04.000 Follow those rules and it's a way of life.
01:16:06.000 Map out a plan.
01:16:07.000 Follow the rules.
01:16:08.000 I guarantee you, you may not be a world beater.
01:16:12.000 But you'll be more satisfied with your life than you are now.
01:16:15.000 And I think you know who I'm talking to.
01:16:17.000 Thank you for sending the email.
01:16:18.000 I hope that helps.
