00:03:21.000 On the speed of sound That's called the How Joe Biden Sees All the 12 Years

00:03:31.000 It's kind of like when someone's been on an island and they're really hungry and you look like a hamburger.

00:03:35.000 Just every single 12-year-old girl looks like they're doing this.

00:03:37.000 Oh my gosh, that's terrible.

00:03:39.000 Kepp rising, Joe Biden.

00:03:41.000 I don't know, this is a horrible lead.

00:03:43.000 And hey, we have Paul Joseph Watson on the show today.

00:03:46.000 In third chair, we have Penn Tellis.

00:03:48.000 Of course.

00:03:48.000 Hello, everybody.

00:03:49.000 Where can people follow you?

00:03:49.000 They're on the Twitter.

00:03:50.000 It's a horrible Twitter.

00:03:51.000 Yeah, it's a big P4H, B-I-G. 0.99

00:03:53.000 That's terrible, but people can watch your show.

00:03:54.000 Go to PennTellisComedy.com.

00:03:55.000 Penn Tellis Comedy, one of the funniest comedy writers out there, works with Mike He's, of course, under Human Rights Tribunal for a joke there in Canada.

00:04:01.000 Quarter Black Garrett, how are you, sir?

00:04:02.000 What's up?

00:04:02.000 Yeah, that doesn't sound black at all.

00:04:03.000 And G. Morgan Jr., what's the wine of the day?

00:04:06.000 Chateau de Beaucastel, a place I will be in a couple of short weeks.

00:04:09.000 You're actually going there?

00:04:09.000 I am going to go to this winery.

00:04:10.000 This is on the honeymoon, correct?

00:04:12.000 Honeymoon, baby.

00:04:13.000 Yes.

00:04:14.000 If we make it out of the bedroom.

00:04:17.000 Something tells me you're not making it into the bedroom.

00:04:18.000 Question of the day.

00:04:19.000 She's going to be Wilma!

00:04:22.000 And she's off with the bellboy.

00:04:24.000 So, question.

00:04:26.000 Sorry.

00:04:27.000 She's lovely.

00:04:28.000 She's lovely.

00:04:30.000 We're going to be talking about Brian Stelter today, and more media bias, kind of in the wake of the Russia story.

00:04:35.000 But first, let me ask you, which CNN anchor, in your opinion, is the largest festering pile of corn-infested fecal matter?

00:04:42.000 Let me know.

00:04:43.000 We also have a 7 plus 1 on Joe Biden, and like we said, Paul Joseph Watson.

00:04:48.000 Let me know.

00:04:49.000 Let me know before you watch the Brian Stelter segment, because I know if you comment after you watch it, that we're going to be Skewing the deck.

00:04:55.000 We don't want to bias you.

00:04:56.000 Yeah, it's not fair.

00:04:58.000 I don't want to show you our hand yet.

00:05:00.000 Pause it, comment, then come back.

00:05:03.000 Starting us off, though, is this claim that young social media influencers now are key to fighting terrorism in the Middle East.

00:05:10.000 This comes from the New York Post.

00:05:11.000 According to the author, youth are authentic to one another in a way government officials, religious authorities, or parents are not.

00:05:17.000 And so they're using this to fight terrorism.

00:05:20.000 Leading this new crop of influencers is actually, we know, a popular YouTube personality, Sharia Laura. 0.96

00:05:25.000 Hi guys!

00:05:26.000 I'm Sharia Loro. 0.62

00:05:27.000 Welcome back to my YouTube channel.

00:05:29.000 This is going to be my latest unboxing and makeup tutorial, as you can see.

00:05:33.000 Hey, what's going on in here? I don't know what the hell to do with you. I don't know how to do this.

00:05:42.000 Still monetized oddly enough.

00:05:43.000 That's awesome.

00:05:45.000 Well, look, if you want to fight ISIS well, if you want to do a good job about this, how about just being honest about Islam? 0.94

00:05:50.000 Every time somebody is honest about Islam, they get banned, they get demonetized, and they get shouted down by the left.

00:05:56.000 Also, any time you read from cover to cover, The Green New Deal.

00:05:59.000 By the way, between the covers, there's only four pages.

00:06:01.000 It's a quick read.

00:06:02.000 Makes it easy.

00:06:03.000 Did you read it, Pentelus?

00:06:04.000 No, but I don't like his tone.

00:06:06.000 The husband was sharing his culture.

00:06:07.000 Let him do it.

00:06:08.000 Yes, exactly.

00:06:09.000 Exactly.

00:06:10.000 I just haven't been, you know, woke enough yet, I guess.

00:06:13.000 Yes.

00:06:13.000 No.

00:06:13.000 Did I use that properly?

00:06:14.000 I don't even know how to use that word.

00:06:15.000 Just like you'll never be woke on the honeymoon, you'll be fast asleep outside the bedroom.

00:06:18.000 Stop it.

00:06:18.000 Stop it!

00:06:19.000 But the bellboys know where to be seen.

00:06:20.000 In media news, BuzzFeed executives tell the blow to the committee better.

00:06:27.000 It's a slow news week.

00:06:29.000 This is what you can expect in a slow news week. 1.00

00:06:31.000 Damn it! 0.99

00:06:32.000 BuzzFeed executives dealt a blow to employees of the union. 0.99

00:06:36.000 This comes from a tweet, I think, from one of the members of the union.

00:06:39.000 Five minutes after the meeting with the union was scheduled to start, executives said they weren't going to show up.

00:06:45.000 And of course they were very upset.

00:06:46.000 This trended for about four minutes.

00:06:49.000 In response, today BuzzFeed released the Top 25 Employee Suicide Gifts You Won't Believe.

00:06:54.000 So they seem as though Hey, is that a man on fire?

00:07:00.000 I have no idea.

00:07:01.000 And strangely, I'm with the executives on this one.

00:07:03.000 I wouldn't have shown up to the meeting as well. 1.00

00:07:04.000 Those stupid union people at a terrible, terrible news outlet. 1.00

00:07:08.000 Air quotes. 1.00

00:07:09.000 But I mean, where else are you going to find a job unless you have a union?

00:07:11.000 If you have a job at BuzzFeed, you need to hang on to it for dear life.

00:07:17.000 Don't piss them off.

00:07:18.000 They will just fire you faster.

00:07:20.000 I wish I loved anything as much as BuzzFeed writers love Doing nothing.

00:07:28.000 Then again, we get a lot of material from them, so maybe we do want them to stay around.

00:07:31.000 That's true.

00:07:32.000 I also learned from them that the male and female sea otter hold hands.

00:07:35.000 Right before he rapes her, that's actually what happens in real life.

00:07:38.000 Fights her face, claws her neck, copulates the life out of her. 0.97

00:07:40.000 They don't show you that, they just show them holding hands, going down like bare necessities down a river. 0.98

00:07:44.000 Otters are horrible! 1.00

00:07:45.000 Not as bad as the ground owl.

00:07:50.000 Let's not go back there.

00:07:51.000 Leave Florida in Florida. 0.55

00:07:52.000 On a lighter note, therapists have seen an increase in patients claiming to struggle with global warming.

00:07:57.000 Here's a clip.

00:07:58.000 Yeah, it's not just women either. 1.00

00:07:59.000 It's a lot of men, couples specifically, who are talking about all of the reasons why they will or will not have children, and now they're just considering climate change.

00:08:07.000 Who's going to pay for it?

00:08:09.000 We're putting our problems now onto the future generations, and they, again, think it's morally and ethically irresponsible.

00:08:15.000 Yeah, this is something I've been thinking about for years.

00:08:17.000 Even though I want my own children, and I think that would be so much fun, there's too many people.

00:08:24.000 No!

00:08:25.000 Don't sterilize yourselves, said the Association of Reverse Psychologists across the world, ever.

00:08:32.000 The therapists go on to say worrying about environmental problems can cause anxiety and depression across the world.

00:08:39.000 Really, at this point, no one is safe.

00:08:41.000 Yeah, and if you see, it's really a shame what's been happening to what's been happening.

00:08:45.000 No, no, no!

00:08:46.000 That polar bear, he's not depressed, he's just having a good time, and you invaded his privacy.

00:08:51.000 It's very unnecessary.

00:08:52.000 You had a point on this, Pantelis.

00:08:53.000 Why is she saying people who are depressed about climate change are more likely to be sad?

00:08:59.000 If you're depressed about anything, you're gonna be sad.

00:09:03.000 Look, they went to school for years to be able to give that diagnosis.

00:09:06.000 How dare you?

00:09:07.000 It seems that there's a statistical likelihood if someone is clinically depressed that they are more likely to be clinically depressed.

00:09:13.000 Yes.

00:09:14.000 Well, look, here's the thing.

00:09:15.000 Can't we just all close our eyes for 11 years and change and this will just all be over?

00:09:18.000 Apparently, we only have just under 12 years.

00:09:21.000 So, we don't need therapy anymore.

00:09:23.000 Don't waste your time!

00:09:23.000 By the way, I don't know why they picked 12.

00:09:25.000 That's the thing. 0.95

00:09:26.000 It's just, obviously, we're doing away with all the rules from An Inconvenient Truth and, you know, the bull-headed lesbian who sang the song. 1.00

00:09:33.000 Who sang The Inconvenient Truth?

00:09:34.000 I don't know.

00:09:35.000 I always confuse them.

00:09:36.000 Was it, uh... Sinead O'Connor?

00:09:37.000 Was it Sinead O'Connor?

00:09:38.000 Inconvenient truth!

00:09:39.000 It was terrible!

00:09:40.000 That sounds like Sinead O'Connor. 1.00

00:09:41.000 I don't know.

00:09:42.000 I confuse them.

00:09:42.000 There's so many.

00:09:44.000 What is it?

00:09:44.000 O'Connor?

00:09:45.000 Lauper?

00:09:45.000 Who's the, uh, is it McLaughlin?

00:09:47.000 I don't know.

00:09:48.000 McLaughlin!

00:09:48.000 Are those different people?

00:09:51.000 I thought they were all the same.

00:09:52.000 There's another redhead lesbian with short hair who's a singer. 1.00

00:09:55.000 Who am I talking about?

00:09:56.000 I don't know.

00:09:57.000 You're asking the wrong person.

00:09:58.000 I thought you would know this, Penn.

00:09:58.000 Tell us.

00:09:58.000 You seem more cultured because you're Greek.

00:10:00.000 Your people created modern culture and art.

00:10:03.000 Yeah, and then it was destroyed.

00:10:04.000 It was bastardized like this.

00:10:06.000 Pretty much.

00:10:07.000 That's right, and then your whole country went bankrupt because they didn't want to retire at the ripe old age of 38.

00:10:11.000 Sorry, sorry, sorry.

00:10:13.000 By the way, the funniest thing about that, she said, I just don't feel like it's okay that we're passing this on to the next generation to our kids.

00:10:19.000 I'm like, oh, but the crushing death that you're passing on is totally fine.

00:10:22.000 We just won't have a planet, but they won't be able to spend any money.

00:10:24.000 And by the way, your kids will say, airplane?

00:10:27.000 What was that, father?

00:10:29.000 Come sit on my knee. 0.54

00:10:30.000 Let me tell you about how we used to get around.

00:10:32.000 They go up to 500 miles an hour.

00:10:36.000 Oh, he's just telling tall tales.

00:10:38.000 He must be talking about the light rail that only goes 220.

00:10:42.000 Grandpa.

00:10:44.000 And it smells like poop. 0.75

00:10:45.000 While on the topic of people who need therapy, Scientologists consider Tom Cruise to be a deity.

00:10:53.000 Comes from page six because that's a legitimate news source apparently.

00:10:58.000 The actor is believed to be second only to David Miscavige, the savior of the free world. 0.54

00:11:07.000 So please, someone crucify him.

00:11:12.000 Thank you, Tom. 0.91

00:11:13.000 Thank you so much.

00:11:14.000 I just want to let that ride.

00:11:16.000 In a twist of fate, actually, the cult's claims were actually corroborated by this recently discovered early century artwork of Clausidus Fagatris.

00:11:25.000 So if you see, look, they're not...

00:11:29.000 I wanted to see how Penn's house would react, because... I don't... Yes!

00:11:33.000 No, this is his binomial nomenclature.

00:11:36.000 Oh.

00:11:36.000 That's great.

00:11:37.000 Nice.

00:11:37.000 I thought you had something you were about to say there.

00:11:40.000 No, you're on your own, totally.

00:11:42.000 Oh, alright, okay.

00:11:42.000 Oh, I thought you were talking earlier about going clear.

00:11:45.000 Oh, gosh!

00:11:45.000 Oh, see, I'm so sorry.

00:11:47.000 Yeah, so... Jeez.

00:11:50.000 I sincerely apologize for that.

00:11:51.000 It got moved around in the show.

00:11:52.000 Finally, one hell of a wedding night, Gerald.

00:11:54.000 This is true.

00:11:54.000 Sorry, I've been thinking about that.

00:11:56.000 Did you ever see that, by the way?

00:11:57.000 Going clear?

00:11:58.000 Uh, no, no I saw, yes I did, I saw it on HBO.

00:12:01.000 It's crazy!

00:12:02.000 It is absolutely crazy.

00:12:03.000 I had no idea there were enough of these people to have a convention, but apparently there are.

00:12:06.000 They had a convention and they brought Tom Cruise up and they said he is responsible for saving one billion souls.

00:12:14.000 Tom Cruise, by the way, saved a billion souls pushing Scientology.

00:12:20.000 And by the way, that's just from the B-Block segment of his Matt Lauer interview.

00:12:26.000 We got an award!

00:12:27.000 Who are these people?

00:12:28.000 Your clip.

00:12:29.000 Your clip.

00:12:30.000 You don't even know what psychiatry is.

00:12:31.000 If you've done the research.

00:12:33.000 Is that in the research?

00:12:34.000 Really, Tom?

00:12:34.000 What is psychiatry?

00:12:37.000 S**t. You don't know what realing is. 0.98

00:12:43.000 And I get that we're over medicated so that's the problem is they won't necessarily listen to them because they're 0.99

00:12:47.000 crazy So he's in the chair while he was saying that he was he

00:12:50.000 looked at over medicated himself. Yeah, probably look. I'm fine guys

00:12:53.000 I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm standing up. I didn't think the jumping on the couch was a big deal studio parkour

00:12:58.000 It didn't help his argument, okay, I'm I don't know.

00:13:04.000 I didn't think it was that big of a deal. 0.99

00:13:05.000 I just think he's crazy, period. 0.92

00:13:06.000 I just feel like he's really corny and out of touch because he's short. 0.88

00:13:11.000 So Joe Biden, you know, short guys are like, hey, tall guys, can I be included?

00:13:16.000 Watch me jump on a couch.

00:13:17.000 Like, no, stop it.

00:13:20.000 I don't know.

00:13:21.000 Slow News Week.

00:13:21.000 So finally, a vice president, because he's earned that respect.

00:13:25.000 Vice President likely pedophile Joe Biden issued an apology-ish for his handy, handy,

00:13:32.000 I guess, well you wouldn't say handy, handsy general mouthpieces, blaming it all on

00:13:38.000 changing cultural norms. But don't take my word for it.

00:13:40.000 Today I want to talk about just as a support and encouragement that I've made to women and

00:13:47.000 some men that have made them uncomfortable.

00:13:49.000 I shake hands, I hug people, I pat men and women by the shoulders and say, you can do this.

00:13:54.000 Social norms have begun to change, they've shifted, and the boundaries of protecting personal space have been reset.

00:14:04.000 Nipples of 14-year-olds kind of always off limits.

00:14:06.000 Always off limits.

00:14:07.000 Do you?

00:14:08.000 Shaking hands and giving hugs, by the way, never creeps people out.

00:14:10.000 It's the other stuff.

00:14:11.000 The whispering in the ear, the kissing on the hair.

00:14:14.000 That's what creeps people out!

00:14:15.000 Just the sniffing of the hair.

00:14:16.000 Well, that's pretty bad, too.

00:14:17.000 That's so much creepier than kissing on the hair.

00:14:19.000 Yeah, that's like Hannibal Lecter kind of stuff.

00:14:21.000 I mean, you know how you read about displays of affection sort of in the Old Testament?

00:14:23.000 You're like, well, that's a little bit weird.

00:14:25.000 And then you realize that's what they did back then, like, washing of the feet.

00:14:27.000 Or, for example, the blessing under the thigh that's basically, like, symbolizing generations.

00:14:31.000 Because it actually means under the loins, is what they're talking about.

00:14:34.000 Right?

00:14:34.000 But still, nothing is as weird as, and then he sniffeth her hair.

00:14:38.000 And you're like, oh. 0.94

00:14:39.000 You'd be like, oh, no, they're just talking about a sexual deviant. 0.68

00:14:42.000 It was a different time.

00:14:44.000 Social norms have changed, really, Joe?

00:14:46.000 We're not talking, like, from the 50s to today.

00:14:48.000 We're talking, like, four years ago to today.

00:14:50.000 Okay?

00:14:51.000 We haven't moved that far.

00:14:52.000 I realize that four years ago, squeezing an intern's bosoms was a different world back then.

00:14:59.000 The good old days.

00:15:00.000 It's like, really?

00:15:02.000 What are we talking about here?

00:15:03.000 And everybody's response to that was like, oh, it's such a great apology.

00:15:06.000 Isn't it good to see a politician just be sincere and own up to it?

00:15:09.000 I will tell you this.

00:15:11.000 I do think he's sincere.

00:15:13.000 I think he's completely out of it.

00:15:14.000 I don't think he knows.

00:15:14.000 I just don't think he's very bright.

00:15:15.000 I don't think he's a rapist.

00:15:16.000 I don't think he's a pedophile.

00:15:18.000 But I do think that he's blaming all of his seriously creepy behavior on changing cultural norms.

00:15:22.000 And that brings us to this week's 7 Plus 1!

00:15:28.000 You forgot the van in the chamber!

00:15:30.000 We know.

00:15:30.000 We don't forget it in the chamber anymore.

00:15:31.000 No matter what we do, we can't get him.

00:15:32.000 So this week is 7 plus 1 cultural norms that have changed over the course of Joe Biden's lifetime as explained by Vice President Joe Biden himself.

00:15:41.000 Number 7.

00:15:42.000 Back in my day, there were no nanny cams. 0.99

00:15:47.000 I love this.

00:15:48.000 All right, Penn, tell us.

00:15:50.000 You give us number six.

00:15:51.000 Well, back in my day, Stephen, newspapers cost a nickel, beer cost a dime, and your secretary cost 79 cents on the dollar and a pinch for good luck.

00:15:59.000 There you go.

00:16:01.000 He looks like a Disney character when he does that.

00:16:03.000 Yeah, just had a flashback to Wreck-It Ralph.

00:16:06.000 Number five, again, reasons for changing cultural norms as described by Joe Biden.

00:16:11.000 When I was in college, we made out with middle schoolers all the time. 0.97

00:16:17.000 Number four, you show me a baby boomer who hasn't t*** twistered a nine-year-old, and I'll show you a loser. 0.99

00:16:23.000 Said Joe Biden. 1.00

00:16:24.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:16:25.000 Emphasized.

00:16:26.000 Emphasized.

00:16:27.000 Said Joe Biden.

00:16:28.000 Number three, back in my day, blackface was a compliment. 1.00

00:16:32.000 And a turn-on.

00:16:33.000 You thought that maybe he was going to be more racially motivated, but then he goes back to his bread and butter.

00:16:39.000 Gerald, why don't you hit us with number two? 0.94

00:16:41.000 Back in my day, four-foot t*** Didn't have a say oh my gosh. No no no no no take that off 0.97

00:16:46.000 Gerald I'm not your mouth. It was on the screen. Let's just do

00:16:48.000 another let's do another one number two stop it What made you think that you should say this?

00:16:53.000 Did it again didn't I?

00:16:54.000 Ben tell us let's watch that taste out of our mouth number give us number two back in my day

00:16:58.000 They called it babysitting And the number one justification for a cult not

00:17:05.000 justification proof of changing cultural norms as described by Joe Biden 1.00

00:17:09.000 Back in my day, if an ethnic bartender complained about the environment, you'd just pinch her on the ass. 1.00

00:17:14.000 There you go. 1.00

00:17:15.000 And the plus one seems almost unrelated.

00:17:17.000 Back in my day, Obama would have been my vice president.

00:17:20.000 That's last week's 7 plus 1!

00:17:25.000 You forgot Stefan in the chamber!

00:17:28.000 He just cannot get out of his own way, Joe Biden.

00:17:31.000 He's constantly stumbling over himself, usually to try and grope a small child.

00:17:38.000 Trivia contest winner is Kit Blank, by the way, at I Love L.U.V.

00:17:42.000 Clever Kit, who correctly named that Planet Fitness was actually the gym where Stephanie Crowder first debuted. 0.89

00:17:47.000 Only took you one visit to get kicked out.

00:17:50.000 I think you're getting a t-shirt of your choice.

00:17:54.000 Also, by the way, thank you to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for sponsoring today's show.

00:18:00.000 All I can say is, of course, we give you our word it won't change the editorial direction.

00:18:03.000 decisions at all but you know what he's really bringing moderate Islam into the 0.96

00:18:06.000 new world and we're all pretty grateful to him for it. Yeah.

00:18:09.000 Good for him.

00:18:09.000 Okay all right Penn Tellis we're gonna move on here today to a show I think

00:18:13.000 you're familiar with the segment but let me give some context first. Brian Stelter.

00:18:19.000 Sorry. I just can't take him seriously.

00:18:22.000 I haven't started yet.

00:18:24.000 It doesn't matter.

00:18:25.000 The name alone.

00:18:26.000 Here's the thing.

00:18:28.000 Nothing about this is going to be good.

00:18:30.000 No.

00:18:30.000 It's all accurate, but it's very off-putting, much like Brian Stelter.

00:18:34.000 So this is long overdue for Brian Stelter, but the past few weeks, he's really earned it with the leftist propaganda he's been pushing.

00:18:43.000 And even more, you know what? 0.99

00:18:45.000 It's time for this week's What a Piece of Sh**. 0.99

00:18:57.000 Do you have Brian Stealth? 0.98

00:18:58.000 You don't have him in Canada.

00:18:59.000 Is that what he really looks like?

00:19:01.000 Is that a real person?

00:19:03.000 This is a real person on the news.

00:19:07.000 He has his own show. 0.98

00:19:08.000 It's disgusting. 1.00

00:19:09.000 Oh, shit. 1.00

00:19:10.000 Oh, man. 0.99

00:19:11.000 Okay, so reason number five, and this is what bothers me most.

00:19:18.000 I know this should probably be number one, but I think it sets up the context most importantly.

00:19:21.000 This guy, Brian Stelter, is constantly, and he doesn't even see how transparent it is.

00:19:27.000 It's inadvertently transparent.

00:19:28.000 He's not trying to be transparent.

00:19:31.000 But he's accidentally transparent in praising his own show, his own network.

00:19:37.000 It's just about convincing you of his value as a media dinosaur.

00:19:43.000 Here you go.

00:19:44.000 And I'm actually a defender of this cable talk show model.

00:19:46.000 I'm an avid viewer of it.

00:19:47.000 Of course you are.

00:19:48.000 Because news headlines are ubiquitous these days.

00:19:51.000 Our phones alert us to the news.

00:19:53.000 So cable is more like a rolling talk show, letting people be a part of the daily debate about how our country should be governed and how our world should work.

00:20:00.000 But here's the thing.

00:20:00.000 Speculation actually has value too.

00:20:03.000 It helps open our eyes, helps open our minds to what's possible.

00:20:07.000 I know people like to mock cable news in moments like this.

00:20:09.000 It's an easy punchline, right?

00:20:10.000 Of course.

00:20:11.000 We are kind of standing by to find out what the news is going to be, waiting for AG Barr to tell us something.

00:20:16.000 Nothing.

00:20:16.000 But that does have value too.

00:20:19.000 It gives you a place to go, a place to turn to, a recognition that you're not the only one who wants to know.

00:20:24.000 What?

00:20:26.000 Go read an online article.

00:20:28.000 Go home. 0.99

00:20:29.000 Go to the pub and get crap-faced. 0.99

00:20:31.000 Anything but this! 0.99

00:20:32.000 Yes.

00:20:33.000 It adds value, too.

00:20:35.000 Complete speculation devoid of facts. 1.00

00:20:37.000 What a piece of shit. 1.00

00:20:40.000 Brian Stelter, you use your airtime to advocate why you need the remaining portion of your airtime. 1.00

00:20:48.000 Is there anything less accurate than the initial reports of breaking news?

00:20:52.000 You don't need it.

00:20:53.000 You need tomorrow's news.

00:20:54.000 Wait.

00:20:55.000 Wait.

00:20:56.000 Just wait with us.

00:20:56.000 Wait for it.

00:20:57.000 By the way, did you know Pentelus?

00:20:59.000 He's straight. 1.00

00:21:00.000 For a talking penis, though, he lacks charisma. 1.00

00:21:03.000 He lacks charisma. 1.00

00:21:04.000 You'd think he'd have more.

00:21:05.000 You'd think he'd be a little more whimsical.

00:21:07.000 Oh my gosh.

00:21:08.000 Brian Stilter, you generally don't get the story right.

00:21:10.000 You nearly always get it wrong.

00:21:12.000 And then you double down.

00:21:13.000 Don't believe me yet? 1.00

00:21:14.000 Well, we're going to get to reasons four through one, you piece of s***. 1.00

00:21:17.000 So let's go. 0.99

00:21:18.000 Reason number four.

00:21:21.000 I should have had a language warning.

00:21:22.000 It's bleeped, but this is designed with it in mind.

00:21:24.000 There's no other way to describe it.

00:21:25.000 Jussie Smollett and Brian Stelter.

00:21:27.000 And I know he's going to see this.

00:21:29.000 You're welcome.

00:21:31.000 He blamed the synagogue shooting, okay, this is reason number four, blamed the synagogue shooting on Fox News anchors.

00:21:38.000 Here you go.

00:21:39.000 The ridiculousness of this rhetoric, but it is effective among some people.

00:21:43.000 I sure hope some of those Fox hosts, some of those commentators, take a moment, take a minute to think about their role in this environment.

00:21:50.000 Hopefully there's some soul-searching right now in the wake of this massacre.

00:21:53.000 What?

00:21:54.000 By the way, what does that have to do with asylum seekers?

00:21:58.000 He's like, if we had more immigrants, they could shield the Jews. 0.99

00:22:01.000 What is he talking about?

00:22:03.000 But you will notice a trend as we go through these clips.

00:22:05.000 He's the news correspondent equivalent of Christian Bale.

00:22:09.000 These all occur within the same year.

00:22:10.000 Guess his weight!

00:22:11.000 Step right up!

00:22:12.000 Step right up!

00:22:14.000 This clip's from after Thanksgiving, see? 0.96

00:22:16.000 So, Stelter, he argued that foxes referred to immigrants as invaders and that this somehow drove someone to shoot, I guess, a bunch of Jews.

00:22:24.000 That's what he's trying to say. 0.98

00:22:25.000 Fox News is responsible for shooting Jews. 0.99

00:22:28.000 Muhammad, by the way, not responsible for anyone having sex with six-year-old girls or, you know, killing Jews, as he called for in his last words. 1.00

00:22:35.000 That would be a misinterpretation of kill the Jews. 0.99

00:22:38.000 Insensitivity. 0.99

00:22:39.000 It's a smear campaign.

00:22:40.000 It's definitely a smear campaign.

00:22:41.000 It's a smear campaign from Big Hadith.

00:22:47.000 You have to look at the original language, Stephen.

00:22:50.000 Yeah, pretty much, pretty much.

00:22:50.000 It still says kill the G.O.

00:22:54.000 Okay, how about this?

00:22:55.000 Call me when CNN, when you do a segment, Mr. Stelter, on how Ilhan Omar or Linda Sarsour, they're responsible for hate crimes against So let's just do that.

00:23:01.000 I know people say it's not fair to compare Muhammad.

00:23:04.000 Okay, current figures.

00:23:05.000 But, Brian, I don't think you will. 0.96

00:23:07.000 That would require you to be consistent, which you most never are, and is ironically one of the strong suits of most pieces of sh**. 0.85

00:23:12.000 So it seems as though you've missed the boat even on that.

00:23:31.000 Who knows?

00:23:31.000 OK, reason number three.

00:23:34.000 This one should, I mean, I almost could just roll the clip, but let me just set it up for people who are listening in the car.

00:23:39.000 He pushed heaven.

00:23:40.000 He pushed.

00:23:41.000 He pushed.

00:23:43.000 He pushed heaven.

00:23:47.000 It's hard to get out of my mouth.

00:23:51.000 I'm embarrassed for him.

00:23:54.000 Which one?

00:23:55.000 Evan?

00:23:56.000 Yeah, no, both.

00:23:58.000 He's pushed Avenatti as a presidential candidate.

00:24:00.000 Seriously.

00:24:01.000 Here you go.

00:24:01.000 Repeatedly.

00:24:02.000 President Obama also had a lot of TV star power and that helped him pre-Trump.

00:24:07.000 But Trump is more evidence of this and looking ahead to 2020, one reason why I'm taking you seriously as a contender is because of your presence on cable news.

00:24:16.000 Really?

00:24:18.000 Put a black air at the soundboard.

00:24:18.000 Hit that.

00:24:19.000 That one needs... That's a big... Yeah, there you go. 0.99

00:24:21.000 What a piece of s**t. I'll give him an extra. 0.99

00:24:23.000 Here we go. 1.00

00:24:24.000 There you go.

00:24:25.000 That seems like a Brian Stelter one.

00:24:26.000 And he would blame it on the dog.

00:24:29.000 But not like as a joke that's cute, like, it's the dog.

00:24:32.000 He'd be like, no, it's seriously the dog.

00:24:34.000 He would take the dog to cover up his own tracks to the vet and have the dog put down just so he wouldn't be blamed.

00:24:34.000 I think we need to put it down.

00:24:42.000 With Ebenadi, he's specifically only taking him seriously because of his appearances on CNN.

00:24:47.000 Again, go back to reason number five. 0.61

00:24:49.000 I think that you'd be a great president because I want to remain employed?

00:24:53.000 And you're on my show.

00:24:54.000 That means you're important.

00:24:55.000 Otherwise, you wouldn't be on my show.

00:24:57.000 It's because he likes his hair.

00:24:57.000 All wrong.

00:25:00.000 There's a bit of a camaraderie there.

00:25:02.000 By the way, the only reason Ebenadi was there was because You!

00:25:07.000 You put him there! 0.83

00:25:08.000 I've seen him on MSNBC over a hundred times in ten weeks!

00:25:12.000 A hundred times in ten weeks!

00:25:15.000 This is kind of like what Bill Maher said, if I want to know that Trump colluded with the Russians, I just turn on my TV and see yourself?

00:25:22.000 Yes.

00:25:23.000 Saying it.

00:25:24.000 This is like Brian Stelter saying the reason Avenatti would be great is because he's on all of the important shows.

00:25:29.000 Well, which shows?

00:25:29.000 My show.

00:25:30.000 He's on my show, therefore he should be president so he can be on more shows when he's president.

00:25:34.000 Which shows?

00:25:35.000 My show.

00:25:36.000 I think he should be on my show so he becomes president so he comes back on my show completely 100% straight.

00:25:40.000 Buy it. 0.91

00:25:43.000 How delusional do you have to be, by the way, to be that, like, to be sucking so badly in the ratings? 0.89

00:25:48.000 Like, you could just look at the numbers and still think you're that important.

00:25:52.000 Well, it's because speculation is important also.

00:25:55.000 Still straight.

00:25:56.000 Dead air as we wait for news about a Russia collusion case that never materialized is important.

00:26:01.000 It's super important.

00:26:02.000 What were you gonna say, Patel?

00:26:03.000 What is that go-getter of a 90 up to now?

00:26:05.000 I'm curious. 0.96

00:26:07.000 Actually, Avenatti, who himself is equally a piece of s**t, has now been arrested for trying to extort Nike for $50 million. 0.94

00:26:13.000 He's taking one of those prison readiness classes right now? 0.97

00:26:17.000 Yes.

00:26:18.000 Here's what you do on your first day.

00:26:19.000 And when he went in and asked him to put his belongings in the bin, he said, wait, haven't you seen me on Stelter?

00:26:23.000 And they said, sir, no one's seen you on Stelter.

00:26:26.000 I could have been a presidential candidate!

00:26:28.000 But he does come in every few weeks for voluntary conjugal visits.

00:26:30.000 He just wants to put a smile on their face.

00:26:32.000 Reason number two.

00:26:36.000 I'm really not just weaponizing sexuality here.

00:26:46.000 Everyone in this room, honestly, if you were to watch that, would you think the guy's straight?

00:26:53.000 I would have questions. 0.99

00:26:54.000 Well, you have the worst gaydar in the world. 0.99

00:26:56.000 I'm going to be honest with you, I didn't think he was a person. 0.99

00:26:56.000 Penn, tell us. 0.99

00:27:02.000 Okay, too cute Maddie.

00:27:03.000 Woman.

00:27:04.000 No, you wouldn't think he's straight.

00:27:06.000 My wife.

00:27:07.000 My wife goes, I didn't have to watch it for more than five seconds. 0.99

00:27:10.000 Your wife has one of the worst. 1.00

00:27:11.000 I have the worst gaydar? 1.00

00:27:12.000 Yes, you have it worse than my wife. 1.00

00:27:14.000 No.

00:27:14.000 Yeah, you do.

00:27:15.000 There's a friend in the past. 0.98

00:27:18.000 You had sex with George Michael in a porta potty and you still didn't know. 0.99

00:27:22.000 He wasn't gay! 1.00

00:27:23.000 Confirmed.

00:27:25.000 He said, don't spoil it.

00:27:26.000 Okay.

00:27:27.000 Reason number two, and this one's pretty obvious.

00:27:30.000 He blamed the Russia.

00:27:31.000 Right.

00:27:32.000 He blamed Donald Trump for the Russian collusion conspiracy.

00:27:35.000 So that would seem bad enough.

00:27:36.000 But here's the thing.

00:27:36.000 That's actually not number two here.

00:27:38.000 All right.

00:27:39.000 He actually blamed the conspiracy itself on Trump.

00:27:44.000 So after Stelter was pushing the narrative for two years on his show, because speculation is super important, and then it was completely blown up, he doesn't apologize, he blames the conspiracy for being created by Trump.

00:27:58.000 Here.

00:27:58.000 You're going to hear this from the right for the next days and weeks to come, that the press has basically made all of this up to take down President Trump.

00:28:05.000 But the press is just following a trail that Trump created.

00:28:09.000 What?

00:28:11.000 Does he even know what that means?

00:28:13.000 So journalists were following a trail that Trump created?

00:28:17.000 What?

00:28:18.000 It led to nowhere evidently.

00:28:19.000 Like Donald Trump, like this is like, okay, this is going to be one of the greatest tricks in political history.

00:28:24.000 All right.

00:28:24.000 They're going to hang this around my neck and it's going to impede my presidency.

00:28:28.000 I'm almost going to get impeached.

00:28:31.000 And that's it.

00:28:31.000 There's nothing more to the plan.

00:28:33.000 No!

00:28:34.000 You created the false trail, you fat piece of s**t! 1.00

00:28:37.000 You're the one who did it! 1.00

00:28:38.000 And you blame it on Trump!

00:28:39.000 Take the Steele dossier, for example.

00:28:41.000 It was a fake document created by a Democrat PR firm that the media used to spread!

00:28:47.000 And by the way, he went on to say that the Russia collusion narrative was basically the entire premise of the show.

00:28:53.000 By the way, named reliable sources!

00:28:57.000 Unironically.

00:28:57.000 All day!

00:28:58.000 Watch this clip!

00:29:00.000 Welcome back to Reliable Sources, where every day we're trying to keep track of the drip, drip, drip of the Russia investigations.

00:29:08.000 Something else. 0.99

00:29:10.000 It's a piece of s**t walking down a trail of s**t leaving s**t crumbs to find his way home. 1.00

00:29:15.000 I can't keep track of all the s**t! 1.00

00:29:19.000 It's just too much! 0.99

00:29:21.000 It takes a big pair of balls to be able to come out and say, it wasn't you who did it, and keep watching this guys, because this is gonna break. 0.99

00:29:28.000 I know it. 0.99

00:29:28.000 I mean, he's really trying to cut it off at the past, and he just doesn't know how. 0.99

00:29:32.000 Now listen, they're gonna say that the Russian collusion thing is not true, that it didn't happen, but these are the same people who don't believe I'm straight, Also, Donald Trump was the one who did this.

00:29:46.000 Donald Trump was the one who set the trail of breadcrumbs when Roger Stone met with the Russians and sent a tweet to Julian Assange.

00:29:53.000 And by the way, what was Donald Trump doing when he had Kid Rock out in American flag pants, who at one point had sex with Pitbull Anderson, who happens to be friends with, again, Julian Assange?

00:30:02.000 Why are you leaving? 0.95

00:30:03.000 It's practically a bakery, President Trump!

00:30:08.000 Oh, now you're gonna blame me now?

00:30:08.000 What?

00:30:10.000 That's bulls**t. He needs to reinvent himself. 0.98

00:30:13.000 He's gotta shave it completely, tattoo guitars and flames, and call himself Helter Stelter. 0.99

00:30:19.000 That's what he needs to do.

00:30:21.000 Yeah, whole new show.

00:30:21.000 Whole new show.

00:30:23.000 That show will suck too, though. 1.00

00:30:25.000 It really will. 1.00

00:30:29.000 Oh man.

00:30:30.000 Reason number one, and honestly this is like Joe Biden, they don't really need to go in this order, but just because he was also in our previous POS segment.

00:30:38.000 Defending Jussie Smollett.

00:30:39.000 Now again, it's not just about the Jussie Smollett hate crime being exposed as a hoax.

00:30:44.000 That would be too reductive.

00:30:47.000 We wouldn't want to be reductive when addressing Brian Stelter because he, Brian Stelter, I think of him as a nuanced issue.

00:30:54.000 You know, like a bridge troll.

00:30:56.000 So he claimed, like they're not all bad.

00:31:00.000 Everybody else missed that joke.

00:31:02.000 He claimed...

00:31:05.000 That news organizations were really careful.

00:31:07.000 Oh.

00:31:08.000 And that it was only, so this is why, it's not just that he rushed to judgment.

00:31:11.000 He claimed that the news didn't rush, it was only random people on Twitter who rushed to judgment.

00:31:14.000 There was a rush to judgment.

00:31:16.000 I think it was mostly in the celebrity press and among activists and among Twitter people.

00:31:20.000 I think it was a really careful reporting by news organizations, but it all gets lumped in together at the end of the day.

00:31:25.000 It all gets lumped together in the minds of many people. 1.00

00:31:28.000 Wrong again, you piece of shit! 1.00

00:31:32.000 Talking heads on CNN from Brooke Baldwin to April Ryan. 1.00

00:31:34.000 I think you've... Don Lemon!

00:31:35.000 No, yes, absolutely Don Lemon.

00:31:37.000 He actively helped to push the Smollett hoax.

00:31:40.000 And how do you know that we're telling the truth?

00:31:42.000 Because now, Stelter is claiming, even today, that we may never know what happened on that fateful night.

00:31:48.000 The narrative has once again changed from victim, you know, to villain.

00:31:53.000 Back to victim.

00:31:54.000 It's been very confusing as Ryan was saying.

00:31:57.000 People don't know what to believe and we may never really know what happened on the street that night in Chicago.

00:32:03.000 Well, I guess it remains a mystery to all of us. 1.00

00:32:06.000 Signing off, good night, and I'm a piece of shit. 0.99

00:32:10.000 If this confuses him, he's confused by on and off switches. 0.99

00:32:13.000 Yeah, pretty much.

00:32:15.000 I can't believe that.

00:32:15.000 Is it up?

00:32:16.000 Is it down?

00:32:16.000 We may never know.

00:32:17.000 Are you serious?

00:32:17.000 We may never know.

00:32:18.000 This is journalism?

00:32:19.000 This is news that we're supposed to trust?

00:32:21.000 This is what's in airports around the world?

00:32:23.000 I know.

00:32:24.000 Are you serious? 0.97

00:32:25.000 If people only watch news at airports, we're screwed. 1.00

00:32:28.000 Dude, they'd kill themselves. 0.99

00:32:28.000 No wonder they hate us. 0.99

00:32:31.000 Put this under the file of ISIS recruitment tapes.

00:32:34.000 Yes.

00:32:36.000 OK, by the way, so we may never know.

00:32:37.000 OK, let me kind of rattle off why that might not be true.

00:32:40.000 OK, the DA specifically said that Smollett was guilty.

00:32:42.000 They were just letting him off because he served 16 hours of community service.

00:32:45.000 We have video of the Nigerian brothers purchasing the materials using the attack. 0.91

00:32:47.000 We have the testimony that Jesse paid them.

00:32:50.000 And we have the check with which he actually paid them.

00:32:53.000 This story didn't have a turd in the punch bowl from the beginning. 0.99

00:32:56.000 The whole punch bowl was nothing but s**t. 0.95

00:33:00.000 He wrote on the memo line, fake attack, ha ha. 1.00

00:33:04.000 Terrible criminal.

00:33:06.000 Payable to fake checks cash.

00:33:10.000 And they said, now he's trying to say that they wore whiteface, so it confused him and threw him off, dude.

00:33:15.000 I was attacked by mimes!

00:33:17.000 Like, get out of here.

00:33:18.000 That's like the oldest sitcom story in the book, where it's like, you know, the person is coming in dressed in disguise, only someone else wears the same disguise, and it turns out it's their mom.

00:33:25.000 He's like, oh, I thought it was just some other random masked white person attacking me in the exact same method I planned it with my Nigerian brothers.

00:33:34.000 That happened in Pink Panther. 0.58

00:33:35.000 That was Pink Panther 2.

00:33:37.000 That's true.

00:33:37.000 Yeah, they did that.

00:33:38.000 Also, I'm pretty sure it happened on According to Jim.

00:33:40.000 But everything's happened on According to Jim.

00:33:42.000 They know how to blaze trails.

00:33:44.000 So, here's the thing... You know what?

00:33:48.000 You're the... Brian Stelter, you're the According to Jim of News.

00:33:52.000 Steven.

00:33:52.000 Ouch.

00:33:54.000 No, that's true.

00:33:55.000 Here's what I don't understand.

00:33:56.000 He's gone too far.

00:33:57.000 CNN made this decision.

00:34:00.000 The reason Brian Stelter has, he gets to go out there, continually advocate for his job, right?

00:34:05.000 Really, he has to.

00:34:06.000 He doesn't just have, a portion of his show, watch his show.

00:34:08.000 This is my challenge to you.

00:34:09.000 I'm sorry, but watch his show and tell me if he goes a single segment without somehow advocating for the importance of his job.

00:34:18.000 And he has to do it because of the blind spot that networks like CNN have.

00:34:21.000 They have to, I don't, Please, someone tell me.

00:34:25.000 Fat?

00:34:25.000 Yep.

00:34:26.000 Check.

00:34:26.000 Talentless?

00:34:27.000 Seemingly gay? 0.99

00:34:27.000 Yep. 0.99

00:34:28.000 Check.

00:34:29.000 Yep.

00:34:29.000 Uninteresting?

00:34:29.000 No one will watch?

00:34:30.000 Check.

00:34:31.000 You have a show, sir.

00:34:33.000 How does this happen?

00:34:34.000 They lied.

00:34:35.000 He is proof positive of the blind spot immediately.

00:34:38.000 They actually thought his show would work.

00:34:40.000 Someone, someone lost to Brian Stelter.

00:34:46.000 There was a callback.

00:34:48.000 Imagine being in that room, right?

00:34:50.000 There's people sitting there with their sides at the callback and they're all, everyone there, right?

00:34:55.000 They're nervous, but they all feel pretty confident that he's not going to get it.

00:34:58.000 They're pointing to Stelter! 0.98

00:35:00.000 And then they see him on television later that week and they say, no sh**! 0.89

00:35:05.000 And then they never tell a soul that they went out for that job. 0.95

00:35:09.000 No, I didn't get to go that day.

00:35:11.000 I was sick.

00:35:11.000 Did I ever tell you this story?

00:35:13.000 I auditioned for a show on... It was on... I think it was on YTV.

00:35:17.000 Canadians will remember this.

00:35:18.000 Yeah, YTV.

00:35:18.000 The NeverEnding Story.

00:35:20.000 They did a TV show.

00:35:21.000 So it was a great, terrible movie to watch again.

00:35:24.000 And the show was not any better.

00:35:25.000 So I auditioned for this show, and I auditioned for this friend named Luke, okay?

00:35:30.000 And I remember I stayed up that night.

00:35:33.000 They said, we've narrowed it down to you and one other person.

00:35:35.000 Thought this was going to be my big break.

00:35:36.000 Never any story on YTV.

00:35:37.000 It's huge!

00:35:38.000 And then they call.

00:35:41.000 And it was about midnight.

00:35:42.000 And they call.

00:35:42.000 And my parents come into my bedroom.

00:35:44.000 And they said, hey.

00:35:45.000 You know, we're sorry, kid.

00:35:47.000 They didn't pick you.

00:35:49.000 I'm like, what?

00:35:50.000 Who'd they pick?

00:35:51.000 And they said they were going more ethnic.

00:35:54.000 Swear to God.

00:35:55.000 Are you serious?

00:35:56.000 On the show, it was the little Indian kid with a mustache at 10 years old.

00:36:00.000 And I remember him.

00:36:01.000 He was clearly the worst actor.

00:36:04.000 We were going in and mixing and matching because we read for the different parts.

00:36:07.000 And it was very embarrassing because I had told a couple of my friends that I was really, they told me I was a favorite to get it.

00:36:12.000 And then they said, you didn't get it?

00:36:13.000 Who got it?

00:36:15.000 It's still less embarrassing than losing out to Brian Stelter! 1.00

00:36:18.000 That's how bad and how much of a piece of shit I think he is. 0.99

00:36:22.000 If you think I'm out of line, please let me know. 1.00

00:36:24.000 We'll come back right after this with Paul Joseph Watson.

00:36:31.000 Okay.

00:36:49.000 Okay.

00:36:49.000 Ow.

00:36:50.000 Okay, that hurts.

00:36:51.000 That hurts.

00:36:52.000 Ow. 0.99

00:36:52.000 That's enough. 0.99

00:36:53.000 That's it.

00:36:54.000 Oh, bother.

00:36:56.000 Join Mob Club.

00:36:57.000 Come on.

00:36:57.000 is enough now.

00:37:04.000 I'm going to go ahead and get started.

00:37:11.000 I'm going to go ahead and get started.

00:37:17.000 An evil so sinister, we'd perhaps rather forget.

00:37:22.000 The Athene cunicularia, known by its common name, the burrowing or ground owl.

00:37:29.000 It lives in parts of North and South America, infesting your grasslands, deserts, and increasingly, your neighborhoods. 0.70

00:37:38.000 Flying in the face of evolutionary biology, unlike his birds-of-prey brethren, the burrowing owl doesn't take to the skies for his hunt or habitat, but instead decides to live in the dirt.

00:37:50.000 His decision to eschew all of his natural adaptive advantages as a winged animal has resulted in him taking up more real estate, which could be used for your local parks, beaches, or places of business.

00:38:02.000 The burrowing owl's arrogance, as displayed by his choice to live in the dirt like a groundhog

00:38:07.000 rather than one of God's majestic hunters of the heavens, is surpassed only by his boiling hot temper. 1.00

00:38:13.000 What a dick. 0.99

00:38:20.000 Join MudClub at louderwithcrowder.com slash MudClub and help us exterminate the ground owl today. 1.00

00:38:27.000 What do you need besides a miracle?

00:38:32.000 Guns.

00:38:34.000 Lots of them.

00:38:43.000 I'm Trinity.

00:38:44.000 No, you're Pantelis.

00:38:45.000 Cut! 1.00

00:38:46.000 No, in this film he is playing Trinity.

00:38:48.000 Your Trinity.

00:38:49.000 Is that all you need?

00:38:51.000 Yeah This is the new Walther All Steel Frame Q5 Match.

00:39:00.000 Red dot ready.

00:39:02.000 It is all I need.

00:39:04.000 The All Steel Walther Q5 Match.

00:39:05.000 It has good balance and a 5.6 pound trigger pull.

00:39:07.000 steel walter q5 match it has good balance and a 5.6 pound trigger pull try the walter

00:39:29.000 are you doing an african dance I don't know what that is.

00:39:31.000 You're really trying to make this... This is African. 1.00

00:39:32.000 You know, I don't know many full black men who wear lobster Hawaiian shirts.

00:39:37.000 Hey, what's wrong with lobsters, man?

00:39:39.000 There's a lot wrong with lobsters.

00:39:39.000 Do you know, actually, I think there are still laws in the book, and watch people crucify me for this, they're gonna say it's a race thing, but actually there are laws in the books, I think, still in Maryland where you can only feed slaves crustaceans a certain amount of times per week, something like two times per week, because it used to be considered slave food.

00:39:53.000 Yeah.

00:39:54.000 That's messed up.

00:39:55.000 I don't know why it's still on the books, but they just never got rid of it.

00:39:58.000 I also think that in Georgia it's illegal to wear funny hats that scare children. 0.51

00:40:01.000 There are very silly laws out there.

00:40:03.000 I learned this on a Saturday school special. 0.93

00:40:04.000 It was a Saturday after school.

00:40:05.000 It's not really after school, because it's Saturday.

00:40:07.000 Stuff you need to know.

00:40:08.000 It was on a Canadian show called Popular Mechanics, and Alicia Cuthbert was a host on that show.

00:40:13.000 She was.

00:40:14.000 Her little sister was in my grade.

00:40:15.000 She did not like me very much, but the next man I like very much.

00:40:18.000 He's on the show.

00:40:18.000 I always play a game before he comes on.

00:40:20.000 It's called Guess His Haircut because it's always changing, but his background's always the same.

00:40:24.000 You know him on Twitter, at Prison Planet.

00:40:25.000 He has a new website now, summit.news.

00:40:28.000 Paul Joseph Watson, how are you, sir?

00:40:30.000 I'm good, Steve, and good to be back.

00:40:32.000 It's been a while.

00:40:33.000 I'm glad to see you here, and now you've got the new hairdo here, so either Samantha Bee will accuse you of being a Nazi, or you're the high school bully in early 90s.

00:40:42.000 It was written two years ago about Eric Trump having the same hairstyle, and that it was a fashy hairstyle, so I've kept it ever since.

00:40:49.000 Oh, there you go.

00:40:50.000 Okay.

00:40:50.000 I feel like it was different last time.

00:40:52.000 Maybe it's just freshly shorn, which is better than whenever John Kasich will get his hair cut.

00:40:56.000 He looked like the baby eagle, you know, the little kind of sprout.

00:40:59.000 So there's the two-week mark for men.

00:41:02.000 Women don't understand these things. 1.00

00:41:03.000 I've got the volume though, Steven. 0.91

00:41:05.000 I've got the volume.

00:41:05.000 I'll get away with it.

00:41:06.000 Yes, yes.

00:41:08.000 So let me ask you, you did a recent video regarding obviously the recent... How do you pronounce Brunei?

00:41:14.000 How do you pronounce it?

00:41:14.000 I say Brunei.

00:41:15.000 I thought it was Brunei.

00:41:16.000 Yeah, that's probably correct.

00:41:17.000 I just wanted to trick you.

00:41:18.000 Just like I often say Nike, even though it's Nike. 0.94

00:41:20.000 But that's because I'm mildly retarded. 0.51

00:41:22.000 So, everyone's been talking about them and their stoning to death, their new anti-LGBT laws.

00:41:28.000 It wasn't a surprise to me, and you did a video on this, about the LGBT laws in Islamic countries.

00:41:34.000 People can go see it on your YouTube channel.

00:41:36.000 Explain it to people who may not know the correlation.

00:41:39.000 Well, it's obvious.

00:41:40.000 It's actually quite mild in Brunei, Stephen, compared to some of the other countries. 0.98

00:41:44.000 For this Brunei law, you can only be stoned to death if there are four witnesses that see the gay sex taking place. 1.00

00:41:51.000 So I guess they must have to have some kind of orgy. 0.99

00:41:54.000 So there's quite a high bar. 0.98

00:41:56.000 There's quite a high bar for it.

00:41:57.000 But in other countries, the bar is a lot lower.

00:41:59.000 Obviously, it takes, you know, in Islamic countries, one male witness to impugn women, generally speaking.

00:42:05.000 But yeah, I'd made a video Yesterday called Islam versus LGBT, choose your character. 0.92

00:42:12.000 Islam seems to be winning right now. 1.00

00:42:14.000 But I went through the list of countries that stone or execute gay people to death. 0.97

00:42:18.000 Afghanistan, Iran, Mauritania, Sudan, all roughly 93 to 99% Muslim.

00:42:25.000 So I'm kind of getting some kind of correlation there, Stephen, between These Muslim-majority countries and these kind of laws that they introduce. 0.90

00:42:33.000 And I would imagine the remaining 7% is the state of Utah because of those Mormons, correct? 1.00

00:42:39.000 Yeah, but what I brought into it... Yeah, in fact, Nigeria is like 50% Muslim.

00:42:45.000 There are some Christians there, but they also have it.

00:42:47.000 But that's the lowest, is 50%.

00:42:48.000 Right.

00:42:49.000 But the correlation is this oppression Olympics war between Islam and LGBT.

00:42:55.000 Because in the UK, while all this is happening, we have several schools now Where it's basically 98% Muslim kids in places like Birmingham in the Midlands in the UK where they have these LGBT curriculums which are going to be compulsory across the entire country by 2020 teaching relationship advice to children as young as five

00:43:17.000 It's not as bad as it sounds at the outset.

00:43:19.000 It's basically showing them a book where a family has two mums or two dads.

00:43:24.000 It's that kind of thing.

00:43:25.000 So, you know, Christians would disagree with that.

00:43:28.000 It's not literally teaching five-year-olds how to put condoms on and stuff like that.

00:43:32.000 Which we have that separately, by the way, but this is not that.

00:43:35.000 So, they've had massive protests outside all these UK schools.

00:43:40.000 Parents literally pulling their kids out of the schools.

00:43:43.000 And obviously the progressives, the LGBT crowd who protested Trump when he visited London because he's obviously anti-gay, even as he wraps himself in a rainbow flag.

00:43:53.000 Obviously they were out on the street marching with their banners this weekend.

00:43:58.000 Obviously they're going to be marching on the embassy of Brunei.

00:44:01.000 Actually, no, they said nothing whatsoever.

00:44:03.000 So again, you've got this massive disconnect between the population of a country. 0.99

00:44:08.000 Bear in mind, 52% of Muslims living in the UK literally want to put gay people in cages. 0.96

00:44:15.000 52% think homosexuality should be illegal. 0.99

00:44:19.000 We have Sharia patrols. 0.97

00:44:21.000 And even CNN reported on this, where gay people are told by Muslim gangs to leave areas because they're gay. 0.99

00:44:27.000 We have acid attacks outside gay nightclubs now. 0.97

00:44:31.000 And the LGBT lobby... I think I have to fact check you there.

00:44:33.000 I think you're actually confused.

00:44:34.000 Acid attack is the name of Birmingham's hippest gay nightclub.

00:44:40.000 Well it's interesting, Stephen, because we had the first Muslim gay marriage in the UK last year, and within about 24 hours, the gay Muslim couple that got married was inundated with acid attack threats, again from the tolerant, precious Muslim population, who the LGBT lobby rallies behind at every available opportunity. 0.95

00:45:02.000 So we have this disconnect between them supporting people who literally want to throw them off buildings or Yeah, because putting them in prison where they'll meet more radical Islamization and gay sex, that'll fix the problem. 0.98

00:45:14.000 Let's put the gays in prison so there's more gayness! 1.00

00:45:16.000 because they see a common threat. 1.00

00:45:18.000 Yeah, because putting them in prison where they'll meet more radical Islamization and gay sex, 1.00

00:45:23.000 that'll fix the problem. 1.00

00:45:25.000 Let's put the gays in prison so there's more gayness. 1.00

00:45:28.000 This is not very well thought out. 1.00

00:45:30.000 No, I do wonder this though.

00:45:33.000 Do people across the pond, do they not know that President Trump was the first president sworn into office who was pro-gay marriage?

00:45:41.000 Now, Barack Obama was against it, and then he was for it, and it kind of evolved throughout his presidency.

00:45:46.000 Donald Trump is the first president to ever enter into office as pro-gay marriage.

00:45:50.000 Did they not know that when they were protesting him as a homophobe?

00:45:53.000 No, they don't read Stephen.

00:45:55.000 They don't read below the surface of what they're told.

00:45:57.000 You know, it's like with Roe v. Wade.

00:45:59.000 He said, I'm just going to leave it.

00:46:00.000 And again, now he's anti-abortion. 0.93

00:46:02.000 They're still whining about Mike Pence's gay conversion therapy. 0.99

00:46:07.000 Meanwhile, you have literal dictatorships in the Middle East saying they're going to stone gay people to death. 0.91

00:46:12.000 But, I mean, Stephen, you know, considering what the kind of heat I get from the media, I'm actually considering converting to Islam.

00:46:21.000 Because I've thought, why not just embrace what the media labels me at this point?

00:46:25.000 I mean, they call me a conspiracy theorist, despite the fact that for the past six years I've made videos debunking conspiracy theories as you've seen.

00:46:33.000 So, you know, belief in all kinds of wacky conspiracy theories is totally prevalent across the Muslim world. 1.00

00:46:39.000 Polls show it.

00:46:40.000 You know, I've been called an anti-Semite for criticizing George Soros.

00:46:44.000 It's quite well known that Muslims aren't big fans of Jews.

00:46:47.000 I've been called transphobic for saying that allowing men in women's bathrooms is probably going to cause problems.

00:46:52.000 And, you know, in the Islamic world you get trans people being attacked on a regular basis.

00:46:56.000 In Paris yesterday there was a case of that, a trans woman who was attacked by a group of Algerians.

00:47:01.000 So, you know, believing in conspiracy theories, anti-semitism, transphobia, if those are all really dreadful beliefs, as the media says, A lot of Muslims hold those same beliefs. 1.00

00:47:13.000 So why not just convert to Muslim, own it, and join the winning team? 0.98

00:47:17.000 And we've tried to clarify the difference between Islam and Muslims.

00:47:20.000 So not all Muslims obviously hold all those beliefs.

00:47:22.000 That being said, every single Muslim who claims to be a Muslim does believe in a conspiracy theory, in that they have to believe that the Jews subverted the Bible. 0.97

00:47:29.000 They have to believe that going back to the blessing from Abraham, it was a lie because of the Jews. 0.99

00:47:34.000 Farrakhan was just talking about this last week.

00:47:35.000 I think we ran a clip on one of the shows where he said, that Jesus was never crucified.

00:47:41.000 He only came because it was not time to end the Jewish people!

00:47:46.000 Something like that. 0.95

00:47:47.000 I mean, I know it's kind of sounding Bill Cosby rapey, but you get my point.

00:47:50.000 The entire Islamic faith is predicated on the conspiracy theory that the Jews lied about the blessing to the oldest son.

00:47:58.000 And I'm amazed that we don't Talk about that more.

00:48:01.000 If we're going to talk about ideas and toxic religions, it's like, well, hold on a second. 0.78

00:48:05.000 You know, can't we just say if we're talking about all Abrahamic religions, um, this is the one that says all the other guys were liars, specifically the Jews.

00:48:12.000 That seems like if that's your starting off point, it could be problematic to use your terms.

00:48:17.000 No, completely.

00:48:19.000 It's just the disconnect though, Stephen.

00:48:20.000 We literally have the Islamic call to prayer being broadcast in Trafalgar Square, central London now.

00:48:26.000 We have, as I put in the video, left-wing progressives and LGBT groups not only going out with their banners and saying we're against Islamophobia, They literally chant Allah Akbar in major streets in major cities in Germany in front of all their LGBT friends. 0.75

00:48:43.000 Meanwhile, you've got Muslims who attend these gay rallies and insult them in Arabic, call them all manner of horrific homophobic slurs.

00:48:53.000 But again, you know, at the oppression Olympics table, Muslims are above gay people, so they have to align with the Muslims to fight the common enemy, which is you and I. Yes. 0.98

00:49:03.000 Well, not you anymore, because you've converted to Islam. 1.00

00:49:06.000 So, you know, hats off to you.

00:49:07.000 That was a clever move.

00:49:08.000 Good strategy on your part. 0.98

00:49:09.000 How funny would it be if during the Muslim call to prayer, European gays just created a flash mob? 1.00

00:49:14.000 You know, that would be a little bit... 0.99

00:49:16.000 A little bit distasteful, but I'd give him a slow clap.

00:49:21.000 Let me ask you this.

00:49:22.000 Why do you think people are surprised about this recent law, considering how many anti-gay laws there are across the Islamic world?

00:49:29.000 I'll be honest, I was surprised when I read people were outraged in any capacity.

00:49:33.000 Specifically, in Hollywood, they were saying, let's boycott these hotels.

00:49:36.000 I'm like, oh, really?

00:49:37.000 OK, so let's boycott whatever it is, the Andaz, Dubai.

00:49:41.000 They were listing all these opulent, expensive hotels.

00:49:43.000 And I guess they expect middle America to go, well, Alright, I'm not going to be staying at the Andaz Dubai anymore. 0.70

00:49:49.000 They won't get another penny out of me.

00:49:52.000 Why do you think people were surprised at this?

00:49:55.000 I think most people ignored it, Stephen.

00:49:57.000 It wasn't a really big story.

00:49:59.000 It's already disappeared.

00:50:00.000 There are a few tweets, Ellen DeGeneres, etc.

00:50:02.000 They're not going to go and don their p***y hats and be out in the streets, are there? 0.97

00:50:06.000 It's going to disappear after a few days. 0.97

00:50:08.000 But again, this is a major problem because you've got places like Paris and France where the Muslim population is now up to 8-9% minimum. 0.98

00:50:17.000 Those are the official stats.

00:50:19.000 You have Muslim preachers in Palestine saying, We're going to turn France into the Islamic Caliphate.

00:50:25.000 We're taking over, we're having children, and the demographics just show it's happening.

00:50:30.000 If you want to talk about integration, it's simply not working.

00:50:33.000 You do have these no-go areas, despite the fact the media still calls them a conspiracy theory.

00:50:39.000 You had, after the Paris Massacre in 2015, the area of Molenbeek in Brussels, which is an Islamic no-go area, I was kicked out of it, where they hid one of the Paris Massacre terrorists For weeks and weeks and weeks before he was able to be caught by police. 1.00

00:50:55.000 So it's not just the Muslims who hold these extreme beliefs.

00:50:58.000 It's the ones who protect the others that do.

00:51:01.000 And that's why there's such a big problem with integration in Europe and why it's going downhill in a hurry.

00:51:07.000 Well, let's scale back while we're talking about integration, right?

00:51:09.000 Let's scale back.

00:51:10.000 Let's remove extremism from the table because that's always what people try to say.

00:51:12.000 Well, there are extremists in any religion.

00:51:14.000 Okay.

00:51:14.000 You just mentioned, was it the stat, something like 52% of Muslims in the UK support imprisonment for gays?

00:51:21.000 Was that the stat that you had?

00:51:23.000 Yeah, that's the stat, yeah.

00:51:24.000 So, would that be considered fringe extreme?

00:51:27.000 I guess my question is, because it's a little bit different, you guys are further along the trail in the UK than here in the United States.

00:51:33.000 Do English people see that as extreme?

00:51:36.000 Do they say, well, hold on a second, this isn't fringe. 0.88

00:51:38.000 I have a problem if 52% of people think we should imprison gay people.

00:51:41.000 I have a problem if they're pulling their kids out because there's a book with two mommies or two daddies.

00:51:45.000 Or is it ignored?

00:51:48.000 Well, if you look at that exact poll, that was a couple of years ago, it was a Channel 4 poll, and they surveyed the whole population.

00:51:54.000 The whole population was about 10% thought that homosexuality should be illegal.

00:51:58.000 But when you drill down into the Muslim population, it was 52.

00:52:02.000 So it's shared by a minority of Brits, but it is a very small minority.

00:52:06.000 But then you can look at other things like support for suicide bombings under certain circumstances.

00:52:13.000 And it's still as high, even in Western countries, As 20-30% in some countries.

00:52:19.000 Again, those are the ones who will admit to it in a poll.

00:52:22.000 If you think of the ones who actually do believe that but won't admit to it in a poll for fear of reprisals or whatever, then the numbers are probably even higher.

00:52:31.000 So it's a massive problem that there is a huge lack of integration and it is mainly, again, impacting white working class people in Britain.

00:52:40.000 So when these middle class leftists, who by the way, When they get up on Twitter and virtue signal about how much they love mass migration, even in London you can look at exactly where they live and there are not that many large majority white areas in London left.

00:52:55.000 They always choose to live in the whitest areas possible.

00:52:59.000 You see the same trend in countries like Sweden.

00:53:01.000 The most pro-migrant politicians live in the whitest areas possible with the least migrants. 1.00

00:53:07.000 You see that across the board with all these celebrities in the United Kingdom.

00:53:11.000 So it's like as long as they can still pay their nanny like 10 pounds an hour to look after their kids

00:53:17.000 or their cleaner 10 pounds an hour. 0.98

00:53:18.000 Right.

00:53:19.000 That's really all they care about. Then they get up on Twitter and virtue signal about it 0.97

00:53:23.000 to cover themselves in glory.

00:53:25.000 That's a good point about the polls.

00:53:27.000 These are where people feel comfortable answering these questions in polls.

00:53:30.000 They had the same problem with women who'd been groped by Joe Biden. 0.90

00:53:33.000 There wasn't a high answer rate.

00:53:35.000 Final question before we go.

00:53:36.000 It is summit.news.

00:53:37.000 People can follow you on Twitter at Prison Planet.

00:53:39.000 What's your opinion on Joe Biden?

00:53:41.000 Just creepy, out of touch, changing social norms.

00:53:45.000 Well, the main story for me is not the women, that's bad enough, but it's the children. 1.00

00:53:49.000 I mean, you've seen the creepy Joe Biden video probably that I put out.

00:53:53.000 Either Joe Biden just really likes children, or Joe Biden really likes children.

00:54:00.000 That is the disconnect that I find.

00:54:02.000 The legitimate question is behind it.

00:54:04.000 I showed it to a professional who works with abused children and she basically said all the signs were there.

00:54:10.000 Now obviously there's no evidence of anything, but it's creeping on the less.

00:54:15.000 Trump just put out a tweet about 45 minutes ago with the meme video of Joe Biden creeping up behind him.

00:54:21.000 There was an absolute meltdown over that.

00:54:24.000 But let's not forget, Stephen, this was his advisor, his spokesman, 0.89

00:54:28.000 Biden's spokesman said this was created by right-wing trolls. 0.56

00:54:31.000 No.

00:54:32.000 It was the Washington Post in 2015 that first coined the term Creepy Joe Biden.

00:54:37.000 This didn't come from right-wing fever swamps.

00:54:40.000 It came from his public, on-camera behavior.

00:54:44.000 And that apology video was mealy-mouthed. 1.00

00:54:46.000 It was pathetic. 0.98

00:54:47.000 It wasn't an apology at all. 0.99

00:54:48.000 I thought it was hilarious.

00:54:49.000 All right, that's summit.news at Prison Planet on Twitter.

00:54:52.000 Mr. Paul Joseph Watson, thank you for being here, sir.

00:55:17.000 I like animals, alright?

00:55:19.000 Okay? 0.94

00:55:19.000 I'm not saying that we should f***ing exterminate all species. 0.94

00:55:23.000 I know some environmentalists right now are gonna lose their mind. 0.92

00:55:25.000 You shouldn't be talking about getting rid of... That's not what I'm f***ing saying, okay?

00:55:30.000 Would you just hold your horses for a second? 0.81

00:55:32.000 But what I am saying is when it comes to the final solution for f***ing ground owls, maybe it's not the f***ing worst idea, right? 0.55

00:55:40.000 Listen. 0.53

00:55:40.000 Look, look, look. 0.53

00:55:42.000 It's an owl. 0.81

00:55:50.000 This bird can f**king fly and it burrows in the ground like an earthworm. 0.99

00:58:21.000 Paul Joseph Watson.

00:58:21.000 Uh, PennTalus, man.

00:58:23.000 So funny.

00:58:23.000 The guy is so funny.

00:58:24.000 Yeah, and he's so good having a writer's room.

00:58:27.000 He works with Mike Ward quite a bit, and by the way, you should support them at Compound Media.

00:58:30.000 I think that's where they do their daily show, if I'm not mistaken.

00:58:33.000 Yes, of course.

00:58:34.000 But when we were looking for some writers, you know, because I used to write this all myself for a long time, Mike Ward said, you know, I can't do it.

00:58:41.000 But he said, this guy Pentelis is one of the few comedians who is actually very funny and very disciplined and will be consistent and show up.

00:58:48.000 And he's a joy to work with.

00:58:49.000 And I used to hate that sound, the Montreal Greek sound. 0.87

00:58:53.000 I hated it, and now when I hear it, it makes me homesick.

00:58:55.000 You know what I mean?

00:58:56.000 It's like they say, you're going to miss this about me when I'm gone.

00:58:57.000 I never knew about it.

00:58:58.000 Like when my wife does something that really annoys me, she's like, well, that's what you're going to miss most about me when I'm gone.

00:59:03.000 And she usually wins the argument with that, because then I feel bad.

00:59:05.000 All right.

00:59:08.000 Closing segment here.

00:59:08.000 So, for context here, some people, you may not know, we do these Tough Love slash Life Advice segments on The Daily Show, behind the paywall.

00:59:15.000 Mug Clubbers know this, but those of you who've not joined it, loveofcredit.com slash Mug Club, may not.

00:59:20.000 And we receive some pretty funny requests, emails, letters, and sometimes some not so funny requests.

00:59:25.000 For sure.

00:59:26.000 And this week I received one from a young man who had gone blind later in life.

00:59:32.000 You remember this, and he was feeling pretty depressed, which is normal.

00:59:36.000 But a portion of his first letter that he sent implied that he didn't really want to go on living, which is not normal, which is not healthy.

00:59:42.000 And obviously anyone out there who's actually suicidal, even thinking about harming themselves, please do seek out the help of a professional.

00:59:49.000 I recommend it, actually, even if you're not, if you're not at that level.

00:59:51.000 I think that everyone should do therapy, particularly couples counseling, if you're married.

00:59:55.000 But we did our best to try and help him on the show.

00:59:58.000 And you know what?

00:59:59.000 The advice that we provide is the same that we provide on the show week after week, about setting goals for yourself, along with finding your purpose, your calling, making measurable progress toward those goals, self-improvement every day.

01:00:11.000 Nothing new, not reinventing the wheel.

01:00:13.000 But I received a follow-up letter this week, and I wanted to read it for you.

01:00:17.000 Dear Mr. Crowder, This comes from the gentleman who blind gentleman who went 1.00

01:00:21.000 blind out later in life wanted to thank you so much for the generous gesture

01:00:24.000 You've done. Oh, we well this sounds this sounds self-praising.

01:00:27.000 We sent him a mug club. It's not that big Yeah

01:00:28.000 It touched my heart and was really one of the kind of okay as a quick aside the conservative movement has done more to

01:00:33.000 help Me as an othered person than the progressive movement that

01:00:36.000 claims to represent me I watched the episode in which you answered my letter and I'm

01:00:39.000 really thinking about what you said and how I can work toward it

01:00:42.000 What you said about making goals and finding my dreams really hit me

01:00:45.000 I had my dreams But I guess I never really applied myself to achieving them

01:00:48.000 because I didn't believe in myself enough Basically my big pie in the sky dream is to be a

01:00:52.000 professional musician and to be able to live off of what I'm good at

01:00:55.000 while my more grounded dream is to be as independent as Possible with my own career and to live a normal life like

01:00:59.000 everyone else Again, keep in mind, he went blind, I think, at 13 years of age.

01:01:04.000 Of course, the former is far less realistic than the latter, but I'm going to work towards both of them, despite how difficult it may be for me.

01:01:09.000 I already upload my own original music and covers to YouTube, but the way I've been treating it is not as committed as someone who would really want it.

01:01:16.000 The latter dream I've already taken steps toward applying to school to get my bachelor's degree in the fall.

01:01:20.000 So, I know I'll just have to not lose sight of the goal.

01:01:23.000 Blind guy lose sight. 0.99

01:01:24.000 I think he sees the irony there.

01:01:26.000 Thank you for everything you've done, and hopefully I'll be able to improve myself in the situation with using the advice you've given me.

01:01:30.000 Also, the blind jokes are hysterical to me, and I have no problem with you making them, including at my expense, because the irony of blind people using the words like see is not lost on me. 0.98

01:01:37.000 I make the jokes at my own expense.

01:01:38.000 So I'm fine with anyone else doing the same.

01:01:41.000 Thank you, and thanks for giving me a good place to start moving forward.

01:01:44.000 Sincerely, Redacted.

01:01:46.000 Like the Mueller Report.

01:01:47.000 We don't want to give out people's personal name.

01:01:50.000 And the reason I read this is not to even try and present like I'm some sort of sage with unique advice.

01:01:55.000 As a matter of fact, it's the exact opposite.

01:01:57.000 I read this to you first because it's really touching.

01:02:00.000 And if you're listening, Redacted, I'm really glad that we could help if we did.

01:02:05.000 I read this to show you that, you know, in our day-to-day problems, All of us are a whole lot closer to each other than you think.

01:02:15.000 And so are the solutions.

01:02:16.000 I mean, I know all of us were talking about this after that episode, the life advice.

01:02:19.000 We were all sitting here going like, man, could you imagine going blind?

01:02:21.000 We're all going like, oh my gosh, that must be just incomprehensibly difficult.

01:02:25.000 But you know what?

01:02:26.000 There are people out there who are dealing with that who might say the same thing about something you're dealing with.

01:02:31.000 Could be some other kind of disease.

01:02:32.000 Could be the loss of a loved one.

01:02:34.000 And the thing is, for both of you, for all of you, the fix is still pretty much the same.

01:02:40.000 Gratitude, goals, consistency, measurable progress, the things we talk about every week.

01:02:43.000 I think it's also probably What connects us more strongly than anything else, meaning you, me, everyone on this team, everyone watching or listening to this.

01:02:52.000 And I realize that in doing these segments specifically.

01:02:55.000 It's not our political affiliation.

01:02:57.000 It's not a religious affiliation.

01:02:58.000 Our audience is pretty evenly split among atheist libertarians, conservative Christians.

01:03:01.000 We have sort of classical liberal contrarians.

01:03:03.000 We have some Twitter trolls.

01:03:05.000 We can see all this through our analytics.

01:03:07.000 What connects all of us, I think, because it really has been a haven where people hang out, and it's been really inspiring for me to see as the audience grows, I think what connects all of us is that each and every one of you has baggage.

01:03:18.000 Everyone's got their thing, man.

01:03:20.000 Some burdens are bigger than others, but not necessarily.

01:03:24.000 Sometimes they're just different.

01:03:26.000 And when I hear from you, when I see the comments, when I get letters like this, it makes me realize the bond, the kinship that we share most Is that I see a group of people who are looking to improve themselves.

01:03:40.000 And I see a group of people who are looking to improve themselves through truth.

01:03:44.000 And you know what?

01:03:44.000 It's not a truth that can be packaged in a soundbite.

01:03:46.000 It's not a truth that can just be completely explained in the closing seconds of this segment.

01:03:50.000 And that's because everyone, at least in this enclave, as I see it, we're all seeking to improve ourselves not through a truth, not through my truth, through THE truth.

01:04:00.000 And I think that's why our retention rate, we've been blessed, we've talked about this, our retention rate is so high and we're so grateful.

01:04:05.000 I think that's why when your subscription feed stops working, you hit notifications.

01:04:08.000 When those stop working, you guys bookmark or you join up at Mug Club.

01:04:11.000 We can see it.

01:04:12.000 We can see all of this through our analytics.

01:04:15.000 And I really appreciate it.

01:04:17.000 And yeah, you know, when it comes to the only truthful way to self-improvement, just like we see with this gentleman who's going through unbelievable turmoil, I can't imagine going blind.

01:04:26.000 But any of you, it comes back to fundamentals.

01:04:28.000 Gratitude, goals, consistency, measurable progress.

01:04:30.000 And you know, listen, I'm not the guy who has all the answers.

01:04:33.000 I don't even have most of them.

01:04:35.000 I want to be really clear about this.

01:04:37.000 I'm just someone here who's seeking the truth, same as you are, and I really, genuinely appreciate all of you doing it with me, blind or those with sight.

01:04:51.000 I don't know how inspiring that is, but thanks!

01:04:53.000 I appreciate it, and as long as you keep trying, so will we.
