00:00:00.000 Hey, we'll get to the intro and show really quickly in a minute, but please do, if you're subscribed, hit the notification bell, click all notifications, because YouTube has changed that a little bit, and do consider joining up at MugClubLouderWithCrowder.com slash MugClub, because we are still demonetized, and that's the only way this show continues.

00:03:15.000 Captain!

00:03:24.000 They've got us surrounded.

00:03:25.000 I don't know how much more we can take.

00:03:27.000 Come on, don't think like that.

00:03:28.000 I promise you, after this, I'll buy everyone here a round of beer.

00:03:31.000 Okay, even Brandon.

00:03:32.000 Thank you, sir.

00:03:33.000 Has he got a salute?

00:03:34.000 He's got a salute.

00:03:35.000 That's not protocol.

00:03:41.000 Corporal Black, tell me you have some good news for us.

00:03:43.000 Afraid not, Captain.

00:03:44.000 There's hardly anybody left.

00:03:46.000 They took out Gathered.

00:03:47.000 Priggy, you got ambushed.

00:03:48.000 Ben Shapiro's gone, and it gets worse.

00:03:50.000 It's not gonna get any worse!

00:03:51.000 It's just Vox videos.

00:03:53.000 It's all unboxings and makeup tutorials with training.

00:03:56.000 Can't forget!

00:03:56.000 Corporal Black!

00:03:59.000 You Palo Alto bastards! 1.00

00:04:00.000 Sir, we need to surrender! 1.00

00:04:02.000 Oh, come on! 0.99

00:04:02.000 We didn't come all this way just to give it up for some Silicon Valley sprite, right? 0.99

00:04:07.000 What's your name, private?

00:04:08.000 Given, sir.

00:04:09.000 He's not in our company, but he's still here.

00:04:11.000 That's a good sign! 0.99

00:04:12.000 It's an election year, dammit! 0.99

00:04:14.000 We created Mug Club exactly for this instant! 0.98

00:04:16.000 To guarantee a future free internet for all content creators, free from the legacy media gatekeepers!

00:04:23.000 That's why we're here!

00:04:24.000 Don't forget that I want you to walk a lot.

00:04:26.000 Get out, move up, and use Maddie as cover. 1.00

00:04:29.000 Three, two, one.

00:04:31.000 Ah! 0.95

00:04:45.000 You're a strange animal, that's what I know. 0.99

00:05:03.000 I know, I know. 0.99

00:05:06.000 You're a strange animal, I got to follow.

00:05:12.000 I'm a spirit.

00:05:17.000 Ah!

00:05:18.000 That's the sound of us back!

00:05:20.000 Thank you so much to the editing team, we did a wonderful job on that.

00:05:24.000 We have Jimmy Norton on the show today.

00:05:27.000 And I also, I don't know if you noticed, I have a new chair.

00:05:29.000 But the thing is, it's a great chair. 0.99

00:05:30.000 It's far better because of my giant fat ass and the lower back support. 1.00

00:05:34.000 They don't design chairs for giant fat asses like mine. 1.00

00:05:38.000 But the arms are a little lower, so every now and then I go like this and I go... 0.98

00:05:42.000 And then it's just really violent.

00:05:46.000 We did rehearse like face planted, just bang!

00:05:49.000 And then I clean it up.

00:05:51.000 This is all makeup.

00:05:52.000 All right.

00:05:53.000 Back to normal.

00:05:54.000 We have a lot to get to.

00:05:56.000 For those who are saying you're going to catch up on everything that happened when you were gone, no.

00:06:00.000 But some of it.

00:06:03.000 So we are going to talk about Elizabeth Warren, since she's looking at the front runner, her top five or four biggest campaign lies. 0.76

00:06:09.000 But we'll just title it five.

00:06:10.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:06:11.000 Because it's a better rounded number.

00:06:13.000 It looks good.

00:06:14.000 Let me ask you this before we move on.

00:06:16.000 Regardless of what you think regarding her policy, or any of the policies, I guess, from the people who remain in the DNC field, who do you view as a more honest, genuine candidate?

00:06:27.000 Bernie or Elizabeth Warren?

00:06:29.000 Because the two have kind of been going at it.

00:06:31.000 We have quarter black Garrett here. 0.97

00:06:33.000 That's awful. 0.98

00:06:35.000 What the hell was that? 0.99

00:06:36.000 If a black guy liked Star Wars, which is... 0.99

00:06:39.000 I mean. 0.90

00:06:40.000 Hey, you do what you know!

00:06:42.000 Audio Wade is here, G. Morgan Jr.

00:06:44.000 What's the wine of the day?

00:06:45.000 Wine of the day is Tenet the Pundit.

00:06:46.000 Tenet the Pundit?

00:06:47.000 Pundit, yes.

00:06:49.000 Pundit.

00:06:49.000 Tenet the Pundit?

00:06:50.000 Tenet the Pundit.

00:06:52.000 But it has an owl on it.

00:06:53.000 It does.

00:06:53.000 Doesn't make any sense at all.

00:06:54.000 It's very good, I have no idea.

00:06:55.000 It just shows you that wine snobs are affected p****. 1.00

00:06:58.000 And my half-Asian lawyer, Bill Richman, is here.

00:07:01.000 Glad to be here.

00:07:02.000 Are you glad to be here?

00:07:03.000 I don't believe it for a second.

00:07:03.000 I am so glad.

00:07:04.000 We have a lot to get to.

00:07:06.000 News.

00:07:07.000 Do you guys all have a good break?

00:07:08.000 Yeah.

00:07:08.000 Fantastic.

00:07:09.000 Did anything special happen?

00:07:11.000 You know, stuff.

00:07:11.000 Man, I didn't have to see Gerald for a couple weeks.

00:07:14.000 That was nice. 0.94

00:07:15.000 Star Wars sucked. 0.97

00:07:16.000 Yeah, really? 1.00

00:07:17.000 Oh, shut up. 1.00

00:07:17.000 Well, I could have told you that. 1.00

00:07:18.000 Jeez.

00:07:19.000 I'm glad everyone came in prepped with some interesting anecdotes.

00:07:22.000 Yeah, watch a great movie.

00:07:23.000 But first, Christmas happened.

00:07:25.000 Constantine. 0.98

00:07:26.000 Constantine, I hate you.

00:07:27.000 First, before we move on, Julian Castro is actually set to endorse Elizabeth Warren.

00:07:32.000 We go now.

00:07:32.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming Secretary Julian Castro

00:07:37.000 Now I'm not sure if on YouTube we're allowed to say Mexican, but if it's preceded by 0.97

00:07:51.000 f***ing Mexican Hmm, I think we're okay. Yeah, I 1.00

00:07:55.000 I cannot believe I didn't get more coverage.

00:08:01.000 I'd say she's fired, but I think she worked for the Castro campaign. 0.94

00:08:04.000 So, you know, she's destitute.

00:08:07.000 So there's justice.

00:08:08.000 Leading the news, of course, for those who haven't been following, Vince Vaughn was seen with Donald Trump at a college football national championship.

00:08:16.000 All kinds of controversy.

00:08:17.000 The actor was seen chatting, laughing in a private box, even shook his hand.

00:08:21.000 Now, most of you may have just seen the clip, but we've actually obtained some exclusive audio.

00:08:27.000 And when you take it in context now, it looks like Mr. Vaughn actually had some More examples, if you like.

00:08:37.000 For example, more cop suits.

00:08:41.000 Yeah.

00:08:42.000 That way we'll have less crime.

00:08:43.000 More cop suits, less crime.

00:08:46.000 More cop suits, less crime.

00:08:47.000 Listen, I know that you're busy.

00:08:48.000 I want you to let that simmer for a little bit, okay?

00:08:51.000 Percolate on that, and I want you to get back to me.

00:08:53.000 Alright?

00:08:53.000 More cop suits, less crime.

00:08:55.000 Okay?

00:08:55.000 Okay.

00:08:55.000 I know that you're busy. I want you to let that simmer for a little bit, okay?

00:08:57.000 Percolate on that and I want you to get back to me.

00:08:59.000 Alright? More cops, dudes, less crime. Okay? Okay. Thanks.

00:09:02.000 And you know what?

00:09:03.000 You should be drawn up on a crime for looking so good.

00:09:05.000 Am I right?

00:09:07.000 More cop suits.

00:09:08.000 Let's get back to him.

00:09:08.000 Love it.

00:09:09.000 Thought he made some good points.

00:09:10.000 He did make some valid points.

00:09:12.000 And he stayed on message.

00:09:13.000 That's important.

00:09:13.000 He did.

00:09:14.000 It's almost very important.

00:09:15.000 Methinksme smells a 2024 run.

00:09:19.000 Perhaps a Vince Vaughn, Shapiro ticket?

00:09:22.000 Who would talk faster?

00:09:23.000 Listen, I understand that you want to be at the top of the ticket, but I think, and I understand that that's okay to you, but it's not okay to me, but it's okay to you, but maybe it's not okay.

00:09:31.000 Listen, I understand you have some great ideas, kid, let's put that in the back pocket and go on down, make some bad decisions, maybe they're good decisions, okay?

00:09:38.000 Outch, outch, you're on my yamaka. 1.00

00:09:40.000 What is that?

00:09:42.000 He's not curb stomping him!

00:09:44.000 He's not curb stomping him!

00:09:46.000 They're both on the same ticket!

00:09:48.000 This is an American History X, okay?

00:09:49.000 Come on.

00:09:50.000 Don't judge their way to love each other, okay?

00:09:53.000 Oh, right.

00:09:55.000 And by the way, with only a few weeks to go before the Iowa caucus, you know, I don't know if you've been seeing this, things are starting to really heat up.

00:10:00.000 Very hot.

00:10:01.000 We'll be discussing more about Warren and Bernie in a little bit, though it appears that it was the Sanders campaign that fired the first shot.

00:10:08.000 So this comes from Politico.

00:10:10.000 Volunteers have been given a script to now refer to Warren as an elitist who is, quote, bringing no new bases into the Democratic Party.

00:10:19.000 So volunteers have been getting...

00:10:21.000 I don't want to say underhanded, but they've been playing some, uh... I wouldn't call it necessarily fair ball.

00:10:26.000 We've obtained some audio from one of these volunteers' calls, I believe.

00:10:31.000 Only, I would say, volunteer... might be a bit of a stretch.

00:10:35.000 Hello?

00:10:36.000 Good afternoon!

00:10:37.000 This is Bob!

00:10:38.000 Bob Sanders Donnell Whitson!

00:10:41.000 With whom do I have the privilege of speaking?

00:10:47.000 Who is this?

00:10:50.000 Pleasure to meet your acquaintance, Mr. Who-Is-This.

00:10:54.000 I understand that you are leaning toward presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren.

00:11:00.000 I'd like to ask you a few questions.

00:11:03.000 You sound familiar.

00:11:06.000 No, I don't.

00:11:07.000 You work on radio or something?

00:11:08.000 I swear I've heard your voice before.

00:11:11.000 I assure you that you do not know me, Mr. Who-Is-This.

00:11:16.000 Question one. 1.00

00:11:17.000 If you were to hear that Senator Elizabeth Warren was a filthy lying whore, would this make you more or less likely to vote for her? 1.00

00:11:33.000 Less, I suppose. 1.00

00:11:36.000 Interesting.

00:11:38.000 Question two.

00:11:41.000 There is no question two.

00:11:42.000 There never is.

00:11:42.000 That's the only one.

00:11:44.000 You need to keep your powder dry, Bernie.

00:11:47.000 You're going to lose that voice.

00:11:48.000 Jeez.

00:11:49.000 Oh my gosh.

00:11:50.000 This is just, it's one of those fights where you're just hoping for a Rocky III double knockout.

00:11:54.000 Exactly.

00:11:56.000 Ding, ding.

00:11:56.000 Ding!

00:11:57.000 Ha! 0.89

00:11:57.000 Um. 0.89

00:11:58.000 And then Avendraco kills her trainer.

00:12:01.000 And then Avondrago kills their trainer.

00:12:02.000 I don't know who that would be.

00:12:03.000 Would that be Debra Wasserman Schultz? 0.96

00:12:07.000 Turning to entertainment, the man who portrayed Superman on Hollywood Boulevard, a lot of you know him, he died this week.

00:12:15.000 Coroner said that he suffocated to death, unfortunately, inside of a clothing donation bin while high on methamphetamine.

00:12:22.000 That's a terrible way to go.

00:12:23.000 So it turns out this Superman's kryptonite was meth.

00:12:30.000 Pretty straightforward.

00:12:33.000 And everyone, for some reason, has it.

00:12:34.000 What are those?

00:12:35.000 Meth earrings?

00:12:36.000 Is that a meth dog collar?

00:12:38.000 What is it with Superman?

00:12:39.000 He has all of the powers in the world, except around Kryptonite, which is from his home planet, so apparently everyone on Krypton just acts like they have AIDS.

00:12:47.000 They have no powers whatsoever.

00:12:49.000 And everyone on Earth has Kryptonite something. 0.81

00:12:53.000 It's like a charm bracelet, and they just have kryptonite.

00:12:55.000 It's like garlic.

00:12:57.000 On the bright side, this Superman didn't live long enough to star in Horse Camp, so there's good for... There's good.

00:13:03.000 We'll count your blessings.

00:13:05.000 Spoiler alert, the title is exactly the film.

00:13:09.000 It does not get any better.

00:13:11.000 Lest you were expecting a zag, it is about a camp With a horse. 1.00

00:13:17.000 Okay.

00:13:18.000 Not horses.

00:13:19.000 Yeah.

00:13:20.000 A horse.

00:13:21.000 And Terry Hatcher cameos.

00:13:22.000 So have you been following the royal drama?

00:13:24.000 Yes.

00:13:25.000 Have you been following the royal drama?

00:13:26.000 These guys still have emperors and such, right?

00:13:28.000 Oh, absolutely.

00:13:29.000 We very much love the monarchs.

00:13:30.000 So the queen has agreed on a period of transition for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

00:13:37.000 This comes from CNN.

00:13:38.000 It comes after the couple's bombshell announcement that they wanted to step back from their roles as senior members of the royal family.

00:13:44.000 And the Queen said that she is relieved to finally be rid of this black stain on the House of Windsor so that they can get back to doing what they do best, horrific inbreeding.

00:13:53.000 They're excited about.

00:13:57.000 It doesn't even connect.

00:13:58.000 It's not even useful.

00:13:59.000 Hey, is he growing that extra ear to, like, donate to someone?

00:14:01.000 Is that like those mice?

00:14:02.000 It could be.

00:14:03.000 That's a birthmark.

00:14:04.000 Well, I should say, it's not functional.

00:14:07.000 So we just refer to it as a birthmark.

00:14:09.000 The thing is with Prince Charles, you're like, oh my gosh, someone has to marry that guy.

00:14:13.000 And then you realize, you know, people are with him for his money. 0.93

00:14:17.000 And then the really disgustingly, revoltingly ugly man picks Camilla. 0.96

00:14:25.000 Could have been better. 0.97

00:14:26.000 Just stop the inbreeding, pick anyone.

00:14:28.000 Not that!

00:14:29.000 Not that!

00:14:30.000 Of all the options you had.

00:14:32.000 You go with what you know, right?

00:14:33.000 I think the flipper kids would be more appealing.

00:14:37.000 So, by the way, it's been announced that Harry and Meghan, they're going to live part-time in Canada.

00:14:41.000 Do you guys know about this?

00:14:42.000 I don't know why anybody would do that.

00:14:43.000 Well, you know, I did it for 18 years, so thanks.

00:14:45.000 You live full-time there.

00:14:47.000 Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, he said that taxpayers may or may not have to fund their security detail, though the Prime Minister feels that most Canadians would be supportive, he says. 0.99

00:14:57.000 And that's because most Canadians Justin Trudeau speaks with are pussies. 1.00

00:15:04.000 I thought that was because they liked people in blackface. 0.99

00:15:06.000 That as well, but I was quoting page six. 0.99

00:15:10.000 It says in the source, pussies, yeah. 0.98

00:15:14.000 Which I'm surprised made it past censors. 0.98

00:15:17.000 Print media is not what it used to be.

00:15:18.000 It's a different country, different rules.

00:15:21.000 Shallow grave, like that of a serial killer.

00:15:23.000 Okay, this is a strange story.

00:15:25.000 The ones that serial killers Dig for people.

00:15:28.000 Their graves are not shallow.

00:15:29.000 They're very generous with their own graves, the serial killers.

00:15:32.000 Not with the others.

00:15:33.000 Strange story here.

00:15:35.000 It's very uncaring.

00:15:36.000 We're going to talk about Elizabeth and Bernie in a little bit.

00:15:38.000 Hold your horses.

00:15:39.000 We just have a lot of content we wanted to get out.

00:15:41.000 And if you don't like it, you know, hit fast forward.

00:15:42.000 And I don't blame you.

00:15:44.000 After sitting down for a caricature, this next one, a man robbed the caricature artist, but left the drawing on the easel.

00:15:54.000 That's my people.

00:15:57.000 No, it's not.

00:15:57.000 This comes from TMZ.

00:15:57.000 That's amazing.

00:15:58.000 Luckily, the police responded and the suspect was quickly detained.

00:16:03.000 Apprehended.

00:16:03.000 So, yeah, he could... Wow, that's really close.

00:16:07.000 That's uncanny.

00:16:09.000 I want to get that artist.

00:16:10.000 It's like that movie with Jamie Foxx, right?

00:16:12.000 Where, like, the guy on the street plays the cello.

00:16:14.000 He's, like, an amazing...

00:16:16.000 Look at that.

00:16:16.000 With you, everything's cello.

00:16:19.000 It is. 0.96

00:16:19.000 It's either violin or cello or abusing small children. 0.96

00:16:22.000 It's been beaten into it.

00:16:24.000 Why not?

00:16:24.000 It's perfect.

00:16:25.000 I love it.

00:16:26.000 And by the way, many, of course, are still reeling from the Hanukkah tragedy, the stabbing from over the break for which the suspect has been charged now with six counts of attempted murder.

00:16:36.000 And in an update, the suspect said that he is still hopeful, but that after murdering a bunch of Jews, it's hard to find a good lawyer.

00:16:42.000 Oh my gosh.

00:16:45.000 Bill, do you know anyone?

00:16:47.000 Hey, Ben?

00:16:48.000 Ben Shapiro?

00:16:49.000 Well, no, he just got stumped by Vince Vaughn.

00:16:51.000 Probably not.

00:16:52.000 He did, yes.

00:16:53.000 Curb stomp. 1.00

00:16:53.000 Terrible. 1.00

00:16:54.000 Listen, I haven't passed the bar yet, but I think fifth time's the charm.

00:16:57.000 Here's what I'm saying.

00:16:58.000 I think I can go.

00:16:58.000 I think that we can pair up together and maybe make some magic happen.

00:17:01.000 Maybe you want to make magic happen.

00:17:02.000 Maybe you don't take this.

00:17:03.000 Let this go in your back pocket.

00:17:04.000 We'll come back to it.

00:17:04.000 Uncle Sam's numb the wiser.

00:17:08.000 That's about it.

00:17:08.000 We're Vince Vaughn'd out.

00:17:10.000 Next story.

00:17:12.000 Stick to acting.

00:17:13.000 I don't know how to put this, but this was the number one trend one day.

00:17:15.000 You saw it, Corb.

00:17:16.000 Yep, Black Garrett. 1.00

00:17:18.000 How did this come across your feed?

00:17:21.000 I don't want to be that guy who says that this will destroy all of Western civilization from within.

00:17:27.000 Probably will.

00:17:29.000 Actress, I guess, Gwyneth Paltrow and goop entrepreneur.

00:17:34.000 And by the way, my wife, I got in the shower, that's goop. 1.00

00:17:37.000 You guys know that Gwyneth Paltrow, her brand is goop?

00:17:39.000 And I get into the shower and I see goop body scrub. 0.99

00:17:42.000 And I'm like, sh**. 0.98

00:17:44.000 I paid $75 for shampoo with a little bit of baking soda in it. 0.99

00:17:50.000 Oh my gosh.

00:17:51.000 That's terrible.

00:17:53.000 Take it back. 1.00

00:17:54.000 Gwyneth Paltrow is now selling a candle that, if you have children, get them out of the room, she says smells like her vagina. 1.00

00:18:03.000 Again, this comes from page six. 0.99

00:18:04.000 I'm reading a direct quote. 0.98

00:18:05.000 The candle, which is literally called Smells Like My Vagina, lists for $75. 0.96

00:18:13.000 But it's currently sold out! 0.96

00:18:15.000 What did they make, one?

00:18:16.000 Yeah, it's already completely sold out.

00:18:20.000 Alright, listen, you do you, but I don't like it.

00:18:24.000 We go now live to ex-boyfriend Brad Pitt's unboxing review.

00:18:30.000 I'll show you what's in the box! 0.97

00:18:32.000 What's in the f***ing box?! 0.98

00:18:34.000 Oh god! Oh f***! 0.99

00:18:38.000 Become it, Brad. 1.00

00:18:49.000 Become... Vagina Kendall. 1.00

00:18:52.000 No, no. 0.99

00:18:54.000 That was Kevin Spacey.

00:18:55.000 I know, you're a little bit slow to it.

00:18:57.000 It's not as good as the Vaughn.

00:19:00.000 Not as good as the Vaughn.

00:19:01.000 Kevin Spacey's not as good as the anything at this point, let's be honest.

00:19:05.000 He's at the bottom of the barrel.

00:19:06.000 Probably with a few boys.

00:19:07.000 Finally, sad news this week.

00:19:10.000 They're in the barrels!

00:19:11.000 They're in the barrels.

00:19:12.000 Who are you to judge?

00:19:14.000 Who among us has not committed sexual assault in a barrel?

00:19:19.000 Senator Cory Booker, in case you didn't know, dropped out of the presidential race.

00:19:23.000 In a message to supporters, he said that he will carry this fight forward.

00:19:27.000 He just won't be doing it this year.

00:19:30.000 And here at Louder With Crowder, I'd like to wish, of course, Senator Booker.

00:19:34.000 I mean, listen, at best, these people, they're worthy competition.

00:19:38.000 I don't wish them any ill will.

00:19:39.000 Wish Senator Booker well in his future endeavors.

00:19:42.000 As far as his campaign goes, it's time to close up shop.

00:19:47.000 The New York Times pointed out yesterday that when this Democratic primary started, it was the most racially diverse in history.

00:19:55.000 Yet now the top tier candidates are all men and all white.

00:20:00.000 Time to close.

00:20:04.000 Endings and beginnings are ending and beginning now.

00:20:11.000 I love seeing on Twitter when someone says I'm gay and I say, so what does it matter if I am?

00:20:16.000 So be it.

00:20:17.000 I hope you're not voting for me because you are making the presumption that I'm straight.

00:20:21.000 I have an incredible girlfriend.

00:20:23.000 I have this incredible girlfriend.

00:20:25.000 She is an incredible girlfriend.

00:20:26.000 Please don't try to like, you know, put more pressure on our relationship.

00:20:29.000 I know, I know.

00:20:29.000 Alright, let's talk about her.

00:20:31.000 Oh, I'm afraid not.

00:20:32.000 Rosario Dawson joins boyfriend Cory Booker at a premiere and he tweeted, actually, I joined her.

00:20:38.000 Were you ever called white boy?

00:20:39.000 Um, the situation is unacceptable.

00:20:43.000 The whole life, no no no, Every voter, every voter,

00:20:47.000 This president has attacked, attacked, Attacked.

00:20:52.000 I want to say no.

00:20:54.000 Actually, I want to translate that into Spanish.

00:20:57.000 No.

00:20:57.000 But what does it mean when you want it dirty?

00:21:00.000 And I found that out.

00:21:01.000 Now I appreciate the comments of my colleagues.

00:21:02.000 This is about the closest I'll probably ever have in my life to an I am Spartacus moment.

00:21:07.000 Do you know what is in a margarita now?

00:21:08.000 Clearly I do now because it was one of my biggest mistakes in the campaign.

00:21:12.000 Not on some policy issue.

00:21:14.000 ♪♪ Aww.

00:21:20.000 Too bad. 0.82

00:21:21.000 How do you say in Spanish if Lex Luthor f***ed the Hodge twins? 0.87

00:21:24.000 Both. 0.74

00:21:26.000 Both of them.

00:21:27.000 Oh, it's long.

00:21:28.000 We'll cover the debates once it's down to the top three, and I do think we're going to be doing another Oscar stream this year, so tell us what costumes you want to see.

00:21:35.000 We're down to only 1,800 left, I believe, in the field.

00:21:38.000 Gosh.

00:21:39.000 Yeah.

00:21:39.000 Count them slowly.

00:21:40.000 Yeah.

00:21:41.000 Not going to be covered.

00:21:42.000 We'll cover the debates once it's down to the top three.

00:21:44.000 And I do think we're going to be doing another Oscar stream this year.

00:21:47.000 So tell us what costumes you want to see.

00:21:49.000 Let's get to Elizabeth Warren's top five campaign lies. 1.00

00:21:55.000 We've done it with some other candidates, especially since right now Elizabeth Warren is the front.

00:21:55.000 I think this is important.

00:21:59.000 Please be Elizabeth Warren.

00:22:00.000 Please be Elizabeth Warren.

00:22:01.000 I want to see the election between Donald Trump and Elizabeth Warren so badly.

00:22:06.000 Do you think she's the easiest out?

00:22:07.000 Is that why?

00:22:08.000 Of course.

00:22:08.000 It's just going to be hilarious.

00:22:09.000 Yes, I do.

00:22:09.000 I think it's so easy.

00:22:11.000 I want to hear what all of you think.

00:22:12.000 Comment below and let me know.

00:22:14.000 The reason why is Donald Trump doesn't really apologize.

00:22:17.000 No.

00:22:17.000 He doesn't walk it back.

00:22:19.000 And he's already gone to Pocahontas.

00:22:20.000 I know, that's what I'm saying.

00:22:21.000 That's going to be hilarious.

00:22:22.000 So I'm very curious as to where he takes it from there.

00:22:25.000 Because his rule is he's always pressing forward.

00:22:29.000 I assume the campaign is going to have some posters that include scalping.

00:22:33.000 It's going to go further.

00:22:35.000 It's going to get hilarious.

00:22:36.000 I think he's going to walk up and give her a snuggie. 0.98

00:22:38.000 Smallpox, right?

00:22:44.000 So I don't know.

00:22:45.000 The material's going to be the best with Elizabeth Warren.

00:22:47.000 I think it's going to be great.

00:22:48.000 I really do.

00:22:49.000 I really want to see him.

00:22:50.000 Who do you guys think is the easiest for him to beat?

00:22:51.000 Warren.

00:22:52.000 Yeah?

00:22:52.000 Yeah.

00:22:53.000 Hands down.

00:22:53.000 Thank you!

00:22:54.000 Joe Biden.

00:22:55.000 Joe Biden.

00:22:55.000 Really?

00:22:56.000 Joe Biden.

00:22:56.000 Too much Obama connection, too much old Democratic heroes.

00:22:59.000 I think Joe Biden and Warren kind of have that Hillary vibe. 0.94

00:23:02.000 They do.

00:23:02.000 Bernie's the hardest out, but he's the easiest one on paper to beat.

00:23:05.000 Yeah, but, you know, he'll be dead.

00:23:07.000 So, um, again, your question.

00:23:09.000 I didn't say, I don't take any joy in it.

00:23:11.000 I know you don't.

00:23:12.000 It's a somber moment.

00:23:13.000 Because that wouldn't be biblical, so we wouldn't do that.

00:23:15.000 Moment of silence for Bernie.

00:23:16.000 OK.

00:23:18.000 That was not so it was nice.

00:23:21.000 You never know.

00:23:22.000 I think you'll never know.

00:23:23.000 That was a nice moment.

00:23:25.000 Okay, let's give you some context here.

00:23:26.000 Lie number five, and this is a big one.

00:23:29.000 The lie that Elizabeth Warren perpetuated out there, that Bernie, Senator Sanders, said that a woman couldn't win the presidency.

00:23:35.000 For people out there who don't know, I think most of you do at this point, there was a story that went out, and I remember, I was sort of not reading a ton of news Christmas through New Year's, and so I was coming back in.

00:23:44.000 I understand what it's like for you guys.

00:23:46.000 It's tough to digest.

00:23:47.000 It's like drinking from a fire hose.

00:23:48.000 It is.

00:23:49.000 And so you read it and sometimes you assume, well why would someone lie about that?

00:23:54.000 And then you realize...

00:23:56.000 Chris Cuomo.

00:23:57.000 You go, it makes sense now.

00:24:00.000 You connect the dots, right?

00:24:01.000 So the story out there, and it was on CNN, that's where I originally read it and it was

00:24:04.000 covered everywhere, was that Bernie Sanders told Elizabeth Warren, or made a phone call

00:24:09.000 and said that a woman couldn't win the presidency. 1.00

00:24:12.000 There were no sources provided, by the way, no legitimate sources.

00:24:15.000 It was denied outright by the Sanders campaign, okay?

00:24:18.000 So I want to be clear to set that context.

00:24:20.000 Claim, no corroboration, no source, denied by the Sanders campaign, and then the CNN moderators pulled this move live with Bernie Sanders.

00:24:31.000 You're saying that you never told Senator Warren that a woman could not win the election.

00:24:36.000 That is correct.

00:24:38.000 Senator Warren?

00:24:39.000 Pretty clear.

00:24:39.000 What did you think when Senator Sanders told you a woman could not win the election?

00:24:45.000 I disagreed.

00:24:47.000 I never thought I would wish that Bernie Sanders had a back pocket full of anthrax.

00:24:51.000 That's it!

00:24:54.000 I'm done!

00:24:55.000 Taking you with me!

00:24:57.000 Good luck picking a VP!

00:25:01.000 You'll also get a package!

00:25:03.000 It's next day shipping!

00:25:07.000 Oh my gosh.

00:25:09.000 How?

00:25:09.000 That's the worst setup in the world.

00:25:11.000 And I understand a lot of people out there who are kind of Bernie bros.

00:25:14.000 Listen, I understand where you're coming from, where you feel like the deck is stacked against Bernie from the Democratic establishment.

00:25:19.000 At first I'm like, well, you know, maybe you're a little conspiratorial.

00:25:23.000 No.

00:25:23.000 Okay, no, yeah.

00:25:24.000 Confirmed.

00:25:25.000 Did you see him laugh, too, when we heard it?

00:25:27.000 He's like, ah, son of a... Here we go again.

00:25:29.000 Alright.

00:25:30.000 So, and this is important, too.

00:25:31.000 After the debate, Elizabeth Warren confronted Bernie, and this seems so staged, because CNN recorded it, but they had the right camera angle and the mic still going, and then they aired this footage.

00:25:45.000 You called me a liar on national TV.

00:25:47.000 What?

00:25:48.000 I think you called me a liar on national TV.

00:25:51.000 Let's not do it right now.

00:25:52.000 You want to have that discussion?

00:25:53.000 We'll have that discussion.

00:25:54.000 You called me a liar.

00:25:55.000 You told me.

00:25:56.000 All right, let's not do it now.

00:25:57.000 Listen.

00:25:58.000 That's classy.

00:25:59.000 Hats off to Bernie for that one, right?

00:26:00.000 It's just me.

00:26:01.000 Let's give a round of applause for that one.

00:26:02.000 It's the only one we will.

00:26:04.000 I don't, here's the thing, I think that he's wrong, but I do think there's a, he's a godless man who's trying to do the right thing.

00:26:11.000 Now in his mind the right thing involves killing babies and stealing people's money, I get that. 0.64

00:26:14.000 True. 0.59

00:26:14.000 But he did try and take the high road there, which I appreciate. 0.59

00:26:18.000 He's trying to dodge what's obviously an attack.

00:26:20.000 But just think of that rule.

00:26:21.000 Think of that rule according to Warren.

00:26:23.000 You know, they just made up something that's an indictment on someone's character, and when he corrects the record, he's accusing her of being a liar. 0.98

00:26:30.000 It'd be like me saying, hey, Gerald, remember when you said that you were a rapist?

00:26:36.000 And you say, no, that's not really true. 0.99

00:26:37.000 Therapist.

00:26:37.000 That's not true.

00:26:38.000 And then I say, why'd you call me a liar on my own show?

00:26:43.000 Why did you get the moderator to ask me if it was true and then assume that it was true in the question?

00:26:48.000 You called me a liar on national television? 1.00

00:26:51.000 YOU MISPRONOUNCED BITCH! 1.00

00:26:56.000 And not all women, that's not an intrinsic characteristic, just Pocahontas. 1.00

00:27:03.000 And of course, again, he claims that he's never said that.

00:27:05.000 I believe him, lest you think that I have no reason or context to believe that Bernie Sanders has a track record of saying that a woman could be president.

00:27:15.000 The real issue is not whether you're black or white, whether you're a woman or a man. 0.64

00:27:19.000 In my view, a woman could be elected president of the United States. 1.00

00:27:22.000 The real issue is, whose side are you on?

00:27:26.000 Again, I don't like Bernie Sanders, but I do appreciate truth.

00:27:30.000 Can we say right things like a woman can become president? 1.00

00:27:33.000 And also he looks like the scientist in a weird Nickelodeon show that should be for a kid like, IT'LL GO THROUGH EVAPORATION!

00:27:39.000 PRECIPITATION!

00:27:41.000 CONDENSATION! 1.00

00:27:42.000 SHIT! 1.00

00:27:42.000 CAN I TAKE ANOTHER TAKE?! 1.00

00:27:44.000 PRECIPITATION!

00:27:45.000 IT RAINS!

00:27:46.000 He needs to find a barber.

00:27:49.000 Or be a mathematician.

00:27:50.000 One of the two.

00:27:51.000 That was young Bernie.

00:27:52.000 I know.

00:27:53.000 That was Bernie post-makeup and hair.

00:27:56.000 He should have done that a long time ago.

00:27:58.000 He should have done that.

00:27:59.000 That was Bernie 40 years ago when he was 90.

00:28:00.000 It's fine.

00:28:01.000 I really would love to see... I thought it was the same guy.

00:28:04.000 If someone out there can do this, I will send you a free mug membership.

00:28:08.000 If you can somehow make it look like Bernie was in the live action Cats.

00:28:15.000 Yes.

00:28:15.000 I want to see that.

00:28:16.000 As the ball of yarn they're playing.

00:28:17.000 This is not a binding contract.

00:28:19.000 It's not a legally binding contract.

00:28:21.000 Not at all.

00:28:21.000 But you should still do it anyways, and we'll watch it.

00:28:23.000 Yeah, we'll watch it.

00:28:24.000 You'll get a t-shirt, but it's not binding.

00:28:26.000 And by the way, this is something else that really bothered me with the Elizabeth Warren.

00:28:30.000 After this, some people were coming out accusing Bernie Sanders of being as bad as the Me Too Rapist crowd, the Rapist Defender crowd.

00:28:39.000 So a prolific and well-respected journalist, and I hate this because sometimes you'll get this on, even on CNN or shows like The Young Turks or like Trevor Noah, people and they bring up a tweet from some random person.

00:28:49.000 It's like, that's an egg with two followers and it's just two other eggs!

00:28:54.000 It wouldn't even be half of a half carton of eggs!

00:28:58.000 So this journalist writes for Place Washington Post, New York Times, GQ, Gentleman's Quarterly for the uninitiated, Julia Loft.

00:29:06.000 She tweeted, I want to make sure I get it correct, still thinking about the Warren-Bernie squabble and I have a question to people who have accused Warren of lying.

00:29:13.000 Isn't the lesson of hashtag me too in the last few years that we believe women and don't call them liars?

00:29:21.000 I thought the lesson, which, by the way, was ill-founded, was that we always believe women who make accusations of rape, and I don't believe that.

00:29:28.000 But now you're saying we have to believe all women on everything?

00:29:33.000 That was the lesson?

00:29:34.000 Well, I think Julia's being intellectually honest about what the plan was.

00:29:37.000 The plan has always been no rebuttals, no counter-evidence, no trials, no questions, no investigation, no even raising the eyebrow.

00:29:48.000 No.

00:29:48.000 When you can't do anything, it must be just accepted.

00:29:50.000 And she's finally at least admitting that that's what it's all about.

00:29:53.000 Yeah.

00:29:54.000 And it didn't just stop at rape.

00:29:55.000 The lesson was, don't just believe.

00:29:58.000 We had too many cases of people saying, oh, that actually never even happened.

00:30:00.000 And this was just a complete smear against somebody.

00:30:03.000 The lesson is, prove your allegations if you can, please.

00:30:06.000 The lesson was verify.

00:30:07.000 But now we've expanded that from rape culture, which isn't a real thing, to anything a woman says ever. 0.94

00:30:15.000 That is so disturbing.

00:30:16.000 Yeah, and she writes this, by the way, for GQ, Gentleman's Quarterly.

00:30:19.000 I am stunned to find out that your subscriptions are shrinking.

00:30:23.000 Wow.

00:30:23.000 That an angry feminist is writing for Gentle, hey, what's in this week's edition, month's edition of GQ, is it how to wear suits, how to pull off a skinny tie?

00:30:32.000 No wait, men are pieces of shit, pieces of shit, pieces of shit, pieces of shit. 1.00

00:30:36.000 And there's an ad for Armani cologne. 1.00

00:30:38.000 That's about it. 0.99

00:30:38.000 I'm having my quarterly ass kicking for being a man. 0.99

00:30:41.000 Gosh. 0.99

00:30:41.000 I'll read this magazine. 0.99

00:30:42.000 GQ.

00:30:43.000 That's what gentlemen want to read about all men being liars.

00:30:50.000 Okay, so that's lie number five.

00:30:51.000 Let's look at Elizabeth Warren's track record on the truth, kind of outside of Bernie Sanders. 0.99

00:30:57.000 Number four.

00:30:59.000 This one was a big one.

00:31:00.000 A lot of people may have forgotten about this.

00:31:02.000 She claimed that she was fired for being pregnant. 0.96

00:31:06.000 My contract was renewed for the next year, and I was all set to go.

00:31:12.000 But I was pregnant at the time.

00:31:15.000 It wasn't showing yet.

00:31:18.000 About two months later, when I was visibly pregnant, about six months along, the principal called me in and said that he wished me luck, but he'd be more comfortable having someone else in that job, and he was going to hire someone else for the job.

00:31:37.000 And that was it.

00:31:38.000 I lost my job.

00:31:40.000 A component of that may be true in that I, too, would be comfortable hiring someone else, but it has nothing to do with the fact that you are with child.

00:31:50.000 I, too, would be more comfortable with anyone else, and it has nothing to do with your miracle of creating life.

00:31:56.000 Anyway, did you notice when you watched that, she didn't get the memo on how to lie. 0.72

00:32:00.000 I'll get to why none of this is true.

00:32:01.000 She was claiming that she was fired from a teaching job for being pregnant. 0.94

00:32:04.000 The first thing they ever do, like if you go Google signs that someone is lying, and this is very rudimentary, and it's not often true, and it's very easy to beat this, right, if you're a liar.

00:32:13.000 But she didn't even do that. 1.00

00:32:14.000 The first thing is, they look away, and they often look to the left.

00:32:18.000 And she is consistently, as she's saying that, looking down and to the left.

00:32:22.000 Down and to the left.

00:32:24.000 She took point here, so she was like, yeah, okay.

00:32:26.000 I look like I'm lying.

00:32:27.000 It's like she misread the instructions how to throw people off the scent that you're lying.

00:32:32.000 It was like when I was a kid and I got, she's not even capable of lying.

00:32:35.000 When I was a kid, I got a magic set and I immediately thought like, I know how to do magic now.

00:32:40.000 And I'm like, Hey dad, where's your card?

00:32:42.000 I would palm it, but he would see it in the back of my hand.

00:32:44.000 Like, look, where's your card?

00:32:46.000 What are you doing?

00:32:47.000 The Star Trek sign?

00:32:48.000 I don't know.

00:32:50.000 What?

00:32:50.000 I was so bad at palming it, that's Elizabeth Warren was lying.

00:32:55.000 That was a long way around, but you understand it.

00:32:56.000 School records.

00:32:58.000 Contest.

00:32:58.000 By the way, is there some kind of liability there, Half-Asian Bill, if someone says, I was fired for being pregnant, and there's proof that that's not the case?

00:33:05.000 Well, I mean, it gets to a kind of a common claim, such as defamation, right?

00:33:08.000 You're saying this school district, this individual, did something wrong.

00:33:12.000 That thing, or doing their job wrong.

00:33:14.000 You've accused them of something negative, but it's false.

00:33:17.000 That's a basic defamation claim.

00:33:18.000 Yeah, there you go.

00:33:19.000 If I was the principal and if that person is still alive, sue.

00:33:22.000 By the way, okay, don't listen to Gerald, he's not a lawyer.

00:33:26.000 I'm sure that happened like 18 years ago.

00:33:27.000 That is binding!

00:33:28.000 If you listen to Gerald, the next sound you hear will be the bars clanking as you remain there.

00:33:33.000 I'll join you in the cell, though.

00:33:34.000 By the way, there's nothing wrong with our sound.

00:33:36.000 It is raining so hard right now that the roof... Do you hear that?

00:33:40.000 Well, I pointed and I'm like, hey.

00:33:42.000 It's like one of those rain sticks that you would get at, what is it, like, Rainforest Cafe or you go to the science place right next to the snake that kind of acted like a real snake.

00:33:49.000 Extremely overpriced.

00:33:50.000 Uh, school records, here's important.

00:33:51.000 They show, by the way, that not only was her contract unanimously renewed, she was not fired, um, she resigned.

00:34:00.000 That's different.

00:34:01.000 Yeah, she resigned.

00:34:02.000 That's what happened.

00:34:02.000 Almost contradictory.

00:34:04.000 I just want to make clear, I just want to let that ride, because sometimes if you talk old people, wait, no, no.

00:34:09.000 She wasn't fired.

00:34:10.000 She resigned.

00:34:11.000 And lest you think that these former employers are lying, it actually tends to match up with the unofficial testimony of, you guessed it.

00:34:22.000 It was in a public school system, but I worked with the children with disabilities.

00:34:28.000 And I did that for a year.

00:34:32.000 And then that summer, I actually didn't have the education courses, so I was on an emergency certificate, it was called.

00:34:40.000 And I went back to graduate school and took a couple of courses in education and said, I don't think this is going to work out for me.

00:34:49.000 And I was pregnant with my first baby.

00:34:52.000 So I had a baby and stayed home for a couple of years.

00:34:57.000 First off, she looks older back then!

00:35:00.000 I know.

00:35:01.000 Wow.

00:35:02.000 It's incredible.

00:35:03.000 Is it Benjamin Button Week?

00:35:05.000 What happened?

00:35:07.000 It's terrible when you rebut yourself.

00:35:08.000 I have no idea.

00:35:10.000 Imagine being the person who has to... Anyway, I don't want to... I can't get an A.

00:35:14.000 She's unattractive. 1.00

00:35:18.000 I think I can say that because it's not a definitive claim.

00:35:21.000 It's more opinionative.

00:35:23.000 I find you repulsive, but not everyone.

00:35:27.000 Not everyone.

00:35:28.000 Not inherently.

00:35:28.000 We have some people in the studio here who, you know...

00:35:31.000 Take what they can get!

00:35:33.000 By the way, speaking of threading the needle carefully, which we will not do, hit the notification bell if you are on YouTube.

00:35:42.000 Hit all notifications because apparently there's another step right now, Bill.

00:35:45.000 You gotta hit the bell and then there's gonna say all.

00:35:48.000 You want to go to all so you can get all the notifications, get the stream, make sure you're here.

00:35:52.000 Because you don't get the live stream if you don't hit all.

00:35:54.000 Ah, OK.

00:35:55.000 And, of course, we have new videos that go up every day.

00:35:57.000 Is it 8 or 9 Eastern?

00:35:58.000 I'm not even going to guess.

00:35:59.000 OK, you're not going to guess.

00:36:01.000 And, of course, that's why we do ask that you join MugClubLivewithCutter.com slash MugClub.

00:36:04.000 There's a lot more content there, the entire Blaze catalog, because these rules keep changing.

00:36:08.000 That's how we stay in touch with you.

00:36:09.000 Lie number three.

00:36:11.000 She claimed that her children attended public schools.

00:36:14.000 There needs to be a little bit of context here.

00:36:16.000 A woman told Elizabeth Warren that their children had different opportunities because Warren's children probably went to private schools, and Elizabeth Warren immediately corrected her, saying that they attended public schools.

00:36:27.000 Okay, now that seems pretty cut and dry.

00:36:29.000 Yeah, it does.

00:36:30.000 I went to grad school, not public school.

00:36:30.000 Meaning a lie.

00:36:33.000 Okay, now that seems pretty cut and dry.

00:36:36.000 Yeah, it does.

00:36:37.000 Meaning a lie.

00:36:38.000 Here's the thing.

00:36:39.000 It's like, I don't know if you know this about John Edwards.

00:36:41.000 Actually, my wife had read the book.

00:36:43.000 I don't know how many books are on John Edwards.

00:36:44.000 It seems to me once you get to the point where he's making a sex tape with a pregnant lady while his wife has cancer in the hospital, you close the book and go, oh, he's the villain.

00:36:54.000 Done. 0.77

00:36:55.000 Yeah, you'd think.

00:36:56.000 Spoiler alert!

00:36:57.000 But he used to buy, like, Armani suits.

00:36:57.000 Big reveal.

00:36:59.000 Like, expensive.

00:37:00.000 Armani, Versace, Hugo Boss, Katon suits.

00:37:03.000 And then he would take out the tag and sew in JCPenney. 0.95

00:37:07.000 Yes.

00:37:07.000 Really?

00:37:08.000 He would do that because he wanted to seem like he was of the people.

00:37:10.000 This is what the Democrats do.

00:37:11.000 It's like the fake rappers getting shot in the face stories to have street cred. 0.98

00:37:16.000 They're just like you.

00:37:17.000 Their kids went to public schools.

00:37:18.000 Look, he shops at JCP.

00:37:22.000 I don't think they call it that.

00:37:23.000 It's a man of the people.

00:37:24.000 But I don't understand this.

00:37:26.000 Why is it bad if your kids went to a private school?

00:37:29.000 Why is it bad to wear an Armani suit?

00:37:31.000 At least President Trump kind of owns it.

00:37:32.000 He's the one guy who's like, he goes out there and says, I'm really rich, and the middle class needs some help.

00:37:37.000 You can have both things.

00:37:39.000 He couldn't deny it at this point, though.

00:37:40.000 No, I don't think he denied it.

00:37:41.000 Way too far past that.

00:37:42.000 If anything, he embellished it.

00:37:44.000 I will be the first trillionaire.

00:37:47.000 And by will be, mean am, okay?

00:37:51.000 So her kids did go to public school for like a semester.

00:37:55.000 I couldn't find out how long, but for the majority of their school careers, they went to private schools with tuitions ranging from $17,000 to $40,000 a year.

00:38:02.000 Holy cow. 0.89

00:38:03.000 Wow.

00:38:04.000 Yeah.

00:38:05.000 Oh my gosh. 0.59

00:38:06.000 Look, call me crazy.

00:38:08.000 I want somebody who maybe could do it in their own life to be able to go do it for the country.

00:38:12.000 I don't want somebody who's like, I am just like you.

00:38:14.000 I couldn't make anything out of my life at all, but now I'm running for office, and I'll do a better job when there's more money at stake.

00:38:19.000 Right.

00:38:20.000 That's not my candidate.

00:38:21.000 Guys, we've seen, look, AOC has really changed the world.

00:38:26.000 The cautionary tale is what it is.

00:38:28.000 Let the model see if it'll work out, just like communism.

00:38:31.000 Do you think in ten years from now, Elizabeth Warren is just going to be like a swaddled baby?

00:38:36.000 Yes.

00:38:38.000 And therefore, be too young to be president.

00:38:41.000 Call back to the reverse aging.

00:38:43.000 I'm sure her Unitarian church could use her in the nativity scene. 0.97

00:38:47.000 Do they do nativity scenes? 0.98

00:38:49.000 Wait, she's ugly enough to have played all the roles. 1.00

00:38:51.000 Mary, Joseph, the baby, the donkey, I mean the whole thing. 0.55

00:38:54.000 What am I gonna play this year?

00:38:56.000 As I drink my beer?

00:38:57.000 I don't know, you want Balthazar's available?

00:38:59.000 All right, line number two.

00:39:07.000 She claimed that she was too poor to afford college.

00:39:10.000 Now, this is important because, again, it doesn't match up with her other claims.

00:39:13.000 Very Joe Biden-esque with this.

00:39:16.000 Elizabeth Warren claimed that college wasn't affordable in her day and that her parents couldn't afford a college application, let alone putting her through college. 1.00

00:39:24.000 By the time I graduated from high school, my folks couldn't afford a college application.

00:39:29.000 Much less to send me off to four years at a university.

00:39:32.000 So like a lot of Americans, I don't have a straight pants story.

00:39:35.000 Did she say I don't have a straight pants story? 0.94

00:39:37.000 I don't know.

00:39:38.000 Path story.

00:39:39.000 I don't know what that is.

00:39:40.000 I thought she was talking about boot cut.

00:39:45.000 Is that straight cut back there?

00:39:46.000 Now here's the truth.

00:39:47.000 Her parents didn't put her through college because she went to George Washington University on a scholarship.

00:39:52.000 So a little detail there.

00:39:54.000 Then she dropped out.

00:39:55.000 How did she get in without an application? 0.92

00:39:58.000 Have we sussed out that inconsistency in the story?

00:40:02.000 Well, this is conjecture, but she was forced to sell her body.

00:40:08.000 Spread the word.

00:40:09.000 But it was older then.

00:40:10.000 Just, I want you to know, this is a legitimate news organization.

00:40:13.000 You heard it here first.

00:40:14.000 Tell everybody and send this link.

00:40:18.000 It'll end well for you.

00:40:19.000 There's going to be someone out there like, I knew it. 1.00

00:40:22.000 She was a prostitute. 1.00

00:40:25.000 And actually, her pimp was, I probably shouldn't say this on air, an interdimensional vampire, Keebler Elf. 0.99

00:40:32.000 Oh, man. 0.96

00:40:32.000 I hate those. 0.96

00:40:34.000 And he paid her nothing but Milano cookies.

00:40:36.000 Which, I want to get into the whole connection with Pepperidge Farm and Big Pepperidge and Big Keebler and Mr. Christie.

00:40:44.000 He was beside Tower 7 with an Acme plunger.

00:40:48.000 So, she drops out.

00:40:51.000 We have Mr. Jones in the show.

00:40:53.000 He's a nice guy.

00:40:54.000 We'll have him back.

00:40:56.000 Dropped out of college to get married.

00:40:57.000 Ended up going to another public college for $50 a semester, which she herself tweeted out, I want to make sure I get this right, so I go to my non-prompter.

00:41:05.000 Don't you love this iPad tech?

00:41:06.000 I got my degree thanks to a quality public college where tuition was just $50 a semester.

00:41:12.000 That kind of opportunity doesn't exist for students today.

00:41:16.000 Again, I don't care that she got a scholarship.

00:41:20.000 I don't care that she went to a community college. 0.97

00:41:23.000 I think that's actually a good point, that $50 a semester, there's a way to make certain colleges affordable.

00:41:27.000 But the problem is, we have two contradicting narratives here.

00:41:30.000 First, you have the one where she was a poor child.

00:41:32.000 She was just a poor black child who couldn't afford college. 0.94

00:41:35.000 Then you have the second, that it was so easy in her day to go to college because it was so cheap, as opposed to today.

00:41:41.000 And it depends on who she's talking to and what bill of goods she needs to sell, and that's what bothers me.

00:41:45.000 Yeah, and how foolish would it be if you're so poor that your parents can't pay for the application fee and you are blessed with a scholarship that you then drop out and run away from that scholarship to just run off and get married. 0.57

00:41:55.000 You can't get married and stay in school and try to make a better life for your kids. 0.97

00:41:58.000 Right.

00:41:58.000 You just took a huge risk.

00:41:59.000 You're lucky it worked out, Pocahontas. 1.00

00:42:02.000 I don't like that you said that.

00:42:03.000 Sorry.

00:42:03.000 Trump said it.

00:42:06.000 Do we have to bleep him?

00:42:09.000 Pocahontas, I'm fine with. 1.00

00:42:11.000 I draw the line at offensively s*** puns.

00:42:17.000 Look, it worked. 0.96

00:42:19.000 Are you already a dad?

00:42:21.000 No.

00:42:21.000 Oh.

00:42:22.000 No.

00:42:22.000 I'm just stocking up on the dad jokes, though.

00:42:25.000 Okay, line number one.

00:42:27.000 I think you could have seen this coming.

00:42:29.000 I'm sorry.

00:42:30.000 I get it.

00:42:31.000 But actually, we did a whole segment on this, and we had to remove it because I was wearing the socialism fake shirt from YouTube.

00:42:37.000 Half-Asian Bill knows that, but it's available at Mud Club, so it's a little more in-depth.

00:42:40.000 And Jimmy Norton is coming up after this, who's in The Irishman.

00:42:42.000 We'll be talking about the film being nominated for the Academy Award.

00:42:45.000 Lie number one, her... What's the word? 1.00

00:42:48.000 Injun?

00:42:49.000 It's something a lot like that.

00:42:51.000 Let's go with Redskins.

00:42:52.000 Redskin heritage.

00:42:54.000 Unless you think Indian is offensive, wait till you see the clip and then I have a microfiber cloth for the egg on your face.

00:43:04.000 She's repeatedly used the supposed street cred of being Native American as a talking point and just as a refresher on the campaign trail. 1.00

00:43:13.000 My father's parents said, absolutely not.

00:43:15.000 You can't marry her because she's part Cherokee and she's part Delaware. 1.00

00:43:19.000 My papa had high cheekbones like all of the Indians do. 1.00

00:43:26.000 She said it, not me.

00:43:27.000 She also implied to have high cheekbones.

00:43:32.000 They all have high cheekbones.

00:43:33.000 Every one of them?

00:43:34.000 All of them!

00:43:36.000 All of them?

00:43:36.000 And no one else.

00:43:37.000 Apparently no one in the entire universe.

00:43:39.000 None of the Scandinavian countries.

00:43:42.000 And by the way, she didn't just dabble and like, oh, I'm part Native American.

00:43:45.000 She wrote a cookbook about it.

00:43:47.000 She went out, she was talking, she was speaking on reservations.

00:43:50.000 She's not! 1.00

00:43:51.000 She's not the DNA test that she took to prove, which is remarkable to me, this just shows you the ego on these people.

00:43:56.000 Like, someone should have advised her this was a bad idea.

00:43:58.000 She took a DNA test to prove that she was Indian, her words, not mine, and it actually showed that she may have less Indian blood than your average non-Indian American.

00:44:10.000 A whopping 1 in 1,024th native.

00:44:15.000 By the way, for reference, here's my 23andMe.

00:44:18.000 I am about as much Sub-Saharan African as she is Indian.

00:44:25.000 My dog, man.

00:44:27.000 Here we go.

00:44:28.000 Oh, you guys are bonding.

00:44:29.000 It's awesome.

00:44:30.000 It's so cute.

00:44:30.000 Imagine if I went out on this show and I just started dropping N-bombs.

00:44:34.000 And I was like, and I wrote a book about the plight of black Americans, the history of slavery.

00:44:39.000 I was like, no, no, no, no, no.

00:44:40.000 Here's my 23 and me.

00:44:44.000 It sounds absurd.

00:44:44.000 It is exactly the same.

00:44:46.000 The percentage is entirely comparable.

00:44:49.000 Here's what's really sinister about it, though.

00:44:51.000 Not that someone lied about their heritage.

00:44:53.000 That's kind of crappy, but you know, maybe you do it at dinner parties to make yourself interesting once the conversation has sort of reached its end with the reverse aging gimmick.

00:45:02.000 Here's the deal.

00:45:04.000 She has claimed repeatedly that even though she's part Indian, Native American, she's never benefited.

00:45:10.000 She's never used it.

00:45:12.000 I never used my family tree to get a break or get ahead.

00:45:16.000 I never used it to advance my career.

00:45:20.000 Question!

00:45:21.000 The book deal, pow wow chow?

00:45:24.000 Any of those.

00:45:25.000 Does that apply?

00:45:26.000 I don't know.

00:45:27.000 Was that advance just a figment of our imagination?

00:45:29.000 It doesn't.

00:45:30.000 It doesn't.

00:45:31.000 She actually had to give the advance back because the book sold so poorly.

00:45:33.000 Oh, okay.

00:45:33.000 That's right.

00:45:34.000 Technically she can write that one off.

00:45:35.000 I don't know if it sold or not, but I just assumed it did.

00:45:37.000 It had nothing to do with Nate.

00:45:38.000 That's because she was a woman. 1.00

00:45:39.000 Oh, so she'll never win.

00:45:41.000 You're either JK Rowling or no one's reading ya.

00:45:47.000 And even now, no one's reading it because of gender bending.

00:45:49.000 So what was it, the term turf?

00:45:51.000 Anyway, that happened during the break.

00:45:52.000 I don't want to get into it.

00:45:53.000 Nope.

00:45:54.000 Skip it.

00:45:54.000 But here's the thing.

00:45:55.000 Not only does she sell a Native American cookbook, she used her Native American identity to land a teaching job at Harvard.

00:46:04.000 In their law review, I have a lawyer here hailed her as being the first woman of color hired there. 1.00

00:46:11.000 Getting a little loose with the terminology, aren't we, Harvard?

00:46:15.000 Yeah.

00:46:15.000 Yeah, white's a color.

00:46:18.000 I think you're better at lawyering.

00:46:19.000 Thank you.

00:46:19.000 I thought it was a shade.

00:46:20.000 It's all the colors.

00:46:21.000 No, no, black is the absence of color.

00:46:22.000 White is all the colors.

00:46:23.000 Is it?

00:46:24.000 In colors like paint, white is the absence.

00:46:25.000 I think all of you are wrong.

00:46:26.000 Yeah.

00:46:27.000 I think you're better at lawyering.

00:46:28.000 Thank you.

00:46:29.000 I think none of you are good at the color palette.

00:46:30.000 No, I'm partially colorblind.

00:46:31.000 So I'm not good at color palette.

00:46:32.000 I'm not good at color palette.

00:46:37.000 Can we get a color wheel here just so I can understand?

00:46:40.000 I feel like we need that for every single Democratic debate now.

00:46:43.000 Imagine if we claimed that this show was the first online late night podcast show with a host of color.

00:46:51.000 Because I'm just as much a person of color with my sub-Saharan African as Elizabeth Warren.

00:46:56.000 Lest you doubt me, by the way, look at it!

00:46:58.000 Look at it!

00:47:00.000 Look at it!

00:47:02.000 It's absurd!

00:47:03.000 That's why, again, I can't, on this chair, the lower back support is on my coccyx!

00:47:08.000 And when I go down, again, I go down on the sleeve, on the thing, on the armrest, I go, bap, bap, bap, bap, bap! 0.98

00:47:14.000 And I get... And I only learned this because a black woman told me one time, she goes, ah, you got a ghetto booty! 0.95

00:47:24.000 I said, what does that mean? 0.98

00:47:25.000 It sounds like sexual harassment, but you've piqued my interest!

00:47:31.000 I want to see where this goes.

00:47:31.000 That's technical terminology, by the way.

00:47:33.000 Technical terminology.

00:47:34.000 I'm still with you here.

00:47:35.000 Yeah, and she said, it's because, you know, black people got it. 0.98

00:47:37.000 We call it a ghetto booty. 1.00

00:47:39.000 And I said, oh, well, I can't say that.

00:47:41.000 And before I could even at all try, you know, like white guilt my way out of it, she just went, mm. 0.99

00:47:50.000 That was it.

00:47:51.000 True story.

00:47:51.000 It was a hotel in Dallas.

00:47:54.000 I was with another host and he was just like, that was really uncomfortable, wasn't it?

00:47:57.000 Yeah, it's kind of rapey.

00:47:58.000 All right. 0.93

00:47:59.000 I think this is important because we know people will say, well, Donald Trump lies.

00:48:03.000 Granted, he does.

00:48:05.000 No one is perfect.

00:48:06.000 But the difference here is that, and this is just my opinion, and I want to hear what you think, Donald Trump exaggerates actions. 0.97

00:48:15.000 Donald Trump, what he has a tendency to do, there's a difference between lying, like a sinister lie, and being a bit of a bullsh** artist. 0.95

00:48:21.000 And anyone who's ever worked in sales, I mean, you know that. 0.98

00:48:23.000 You're selling a car.

00:48:23.000 This is the best car on the lot, right?

00:48:26.000 You need this car.

00:48:26.000 It's a stereotype for a reason.

00:48:28.000 He will exaggerate the length of his successes.

00:48:33.000 And then he'll diminish, maybe, the depths of his failures, right?

00:48:36.000 So Donald Trump, yeah, I get it.

00:48:37.000 In other words, he might be worth $3 billion.

00:48:40.000 I'm worth $7 billion, OK?

00:48:42.000 No, excuse me, $7 billion.

00:48:43.000 I'm like, well, hold on a second.

00:48:44.000 We have the Deutsche Bank.

00:48:45.000 It says you're worth $3 billion.

00:48:46.000 They are fake news.

00:48:47.000 They're not a news outlet.

00:48:50.000 It's just a Jewish accountant named Todd.

00:48:53.000 And then he'll demean it, you know, like Donald Trump may have been a good athlete in school, but he goes, I was the best athlete in school, okay?

00:49:03.000 Rudy wishes he were me.

00:49:06.000 And you're like, Rudy wasn't even that good of an athlete.

00:49:08.000 Because he wasn't me.

00:49:10.000 That's what I'm saying.

00:49:12.000 So he exaggerates actions, and he'll diminish his failures.

00:49:15.000 Maybe, hey, how many times have you filed bankruptcy?

00:49:18.000 Never!

00:49:19.000 Well, OK, I get it.

00:49:20.000 Your business has filed bankruptcy, not you personally.

00:49:21.000 So I think that that is different.

00:49:24.000 Sort of exaggerating, or maybe embellishing, actions versus Elizabeth Warren, who misrepresents who she is.

00:49:33.000 She misrepresents who she is as a person.

00:49:35.000 Make no mistake, we all laughed at Rachel Dolezal. 0.99

00:49:38.000 Remember the fake black NAACP sideshow bob hair?

00:49:41.000 We all laughed.

00:49:44.000 It's no different than Elizabeth Warren.

00:49:46.000 And here's the thing.

00:49:46.000 This is so important.

00:49:47.000 When people out there, when you read, you look at Vox, you look at BuzzFeed, you look at Salon, you look at CNN, and they say, your race, your gender, it is your identity.

00:49:55.000 It defines who you are.

00:49:56.000 That's very different from saying, hey, here's my pocketbook to, hey, this is who I am.

00:50:02.000 This is the makeup of my soul.

00:50:05.000 And that is entirely a lie simply to pander for votes.

00:50:10.000 That's more off-putting to me.

00:50:12.000 More off-putting to me than saying, I could write a check for a billion dollars is someone lying about being InGen.

00:50:19.000 I don't know.

00:50:20.000 You comment.

00:50:20.000 Tell me.

00:50:21.000 Jim Norton, right after this.

00:50:22.000 Stay tuned.

00:50:24.000 You must choose. It's called a T.

00:50:26.000 Bimbo, bimbo. 0.99

00:50:28.000 My name is Mr. Susan. You must choose.

00:50:30.000 And now it is time for you to do the choosing.

00:50:32.000 I am Mr. T.

00:50:34.000 Remember who I am? Remember who I am?

00:50:44.000 Give me the canteen. Give me the canteen.

00:50:46.000 Oh my god.

00:50:48.000 Oh my god, his sternum.

00:50:50.000 That's just his sternum, don't worry about it.

00:50:51.000 Turn him over, turn him over.

00:50:54.000 Alright.

00:50:55.000 You got a wound about the size of an acorn.

00:50:56.000 Turn him down.

00:50:58.000 I need a sofa.

00:50:59.000 What the hell is sofa?

00:51:01.000 Put his legs up.

00:51:05.000 Put his legs up.

00:51:06.000 Come on.

00:51:06.000 Alright, put pressure on it.

00:51:09.000 Tell us how to fix you.

00:51:11.000 Come on.

00:51:14.000 Okay, you're alright.

00:51:15.000 Put pressure on it.

00:51:16.000 Come on.

00:51:16.000 What can we do?

00:51:18.000 Tell us.

00:51:19.000 Tell us how to fix you.

00:51:21.000 Tell us how to fix you.

00:51:21.000 Come on.

00:51:24.000 I can use some more of my Valkovie.

00:51:29.000 It's so good.

00:51:30.000 Give it to me.

00:51:35.000 Come on, give it to him.

00:51:38.000 No!

00:51:40.000 No!

00:51:42.000 Alright.

00:51:44.000 Alright.

00:51:46.000 No!

00:51:54.000 I know.

00:54:06.000 ExpressVPN reached out to us.

00:54:08.000 We've used them in the past.

00:54:09.000 I think actually when we did the Tulsi Gabbard video where we looked at the search results, we used ExpressVPN on some of our search results to try different locations.

00:54:18.000 Not only are they reliable, not only is their service better than the others out there if you compare it to a cost-reward ratio, but they didn't have a security breach And not tell you for a year, as has happened with some competing VPNs.

00:54:47.000 Are you gonna come?

00:54:48.000 Unquiet!

00:54:49.000 See, now I'm really self-conscious with the dancing because of our next guest.

00:54:52.000 And we were just talking about it during the commercial break.

00:54:54.000 I remember one time he was talking about someone who shall remain nameless.

00:54:58.000 But I know that our next guest, in case you hadn't guessed it, at Jim Norton, jimnorton.com.

00:55:03.000 It is Jim Norton.

00:55:04.000 It is one Jim Norton. 0.99

00:55:05.000 Where he said, oh, that guy's a dope. 0.99

00:55:07.000 He said, f***ing cornball. 0.99

00:55:10.000 And he said it, and I realized that he meant it. 0.99

00:55:12.000 Like, I wish I hated anything as much as he hated this f***ing cornball. 0.98

00:55:17.000 But it was bizarre to me to hear the term cornball and for it to represent such disdain. 0.96

00:55:23.000 You know, he's a co-host of UFC Unfiltered podcast, Degenerates, is on Netflix if you haven't seen it yet.

00:55:29.000 He's in the recent Martin Scorsese, the Irishman film.

00:55:32.000 Jim Norton, how are you, sir?

00:55:33.000 I'm great, buddy.

00:55:34.000 How are you doing?

00:55:35.000 I mean, you know, eh.

00:55:36.000 But what's with the cornball thing?

00:55:38.000 Like, because you use that a lot.

00:55:39.000 It's like the ultimate diss.

00:55:41.000 Because for some reason it feels good coming out.

00:55:44.000 Just to say cornball.

00:55:46.000 It's like it's a couple of syllables and it feels right and it's got a hard sound at the beginning and it's really deconstructing like anyone who thinks they're hip if you're just like oh you're a cornball it's like ah there's no rebounding from being a cornball.

00:55:59.000 Yeah I suppose I guess as a comedian that sort of matters because you want to be hip in the nightclubs with the kids and if someone says you're a cornball you're like well okay then I'm not going to be the next Dane Cook. 0.98

00:56:09.000 Yeah, it just sucks. 0.99

00:56:11.000 It sucks to be a cornball. 0.99

00:56:12.000 That's true. 0.99

00:56:13.000 And you had, plus you had a lot of black friends.

00:56:16.000 I did growing up, yeah. 0.56

00:56:18.000 Black guys calling you corny was the harshest thing because you want to just be like a white guy who's accepted by black guys and thought of as cool or at least thought of as not corny. 0.89

00:56:28.000 Right. 0.96

00:56:28.000 Being corny was just, I don't know why, that was a humiliating insult in 1985. 0.96

00:56:33.000 But Joe Biden puts it on his resume.

00:56:33.000 Right.

00:56:36.000 So yeah, he's proud of it.

00:56:37.000 Vice President and corny.

00:56:39.000 So we have a bunch to get to here.

00:56:41.000 First off, let me ask you this.

00:56:42.000 Did you ever think that you were going to be in the film nominated and arguably the favorite, or at least certainly up there for best picture for Academy Award?

00:56:53.000 No, it's so funny, man, like to be involved with that at all.

00:56:57.000 The fact that I made the fight, I didn't know I made the cut until the night before I was at the Comedy Cellar and Ray Romano came in and he said, Hey, great job in the movie.

00:57:05.000 And I'm like, I, cause I was trying to get tickets to the premiere and I was like, they're not getting me tickets.

00:57:09.000 So I'm not going to be able to go.

00:57:10.000 So I'm not in a movie.

00:57:12.000 I was spiraling mentally.

00:57:13.000 And then Ray told me like, Oh, you're in it and you did good.

00:57:16.000 And then I got tickets and went and saw it.

00:57:17.000 And, uh, I was happy with how it came out, you know, like watching myself is always a nightmare.

00:57:22.000 But seeing this, I'm like, you know what?

00:57:22.000 Right.

00:57:23.000 They showed more of it than I thought they would.

00:57:25.000 Like, I didn't think they were going to show that much.

00:57:27.000 Okay, why is that though?

00:57:29.000 Were you just, you just didn't think that you, and for those who don't know, you play Don Rickles.

00:57:33.000 On stage.

00:57:36.000 Joey Gallo was murdered that night, so that was actually true to life.

00:57:40.000 He went and saw Rickles at the Copa.

00:57:42.000 So I didn't know if it was a critical enough scene to make it into a movie that was cut from four hours to 3.30.

00:57:48.000 I'm like, if they have to cut five more minutes for whatever reason, that's probably not a critical scene as much as some of the other stuff they're doing with Pacino.

00:57:59.000 But they left it in because...

00:58:01.000 Sebastian references Rickles.

00:58:02.000 What, only Rickles can make fun?

00:58:03.000 And I guess... Right.

00:58:05.000 I guess he says he liked it because he left more than I thought he would.

00:58:08.000 And that is interesting, too, to note.

00:58:09.000 They cut it from originally four hours to three and a half hours, or as Peter Jackson calls that, impossible.

00:58:09.000 A lot of people don't know.

00:58:16.000 Someone needs to get him a copy of Final Cut Pro.

00:58:18.000 I'll take Avid at this point.

00:58:19.000 I don't think that man has ever met a cut.

00:58:24.000 Now, let me ask you this.

00:58:26.000 Playing Don Rickles, and I will say, your Don Rickles, by the way, was far more consistent than Al Pacino's Jimmy Hoffa.

00:58:31.000 Very good performance, but he was going Chicago, New York, Chicago.

00:58:34.000 That was the only thing that he was like, ah, this is Jimmy Hoffa. 1.00

00:58:37.000 You piece of s***! 1.00

00:58:39.000 What happened to Jimmy? 1.00

00:58:41.000 I don't know.

00:58:41.000 Of course, great film.

00:58:42.000 Everyone, if you're voting, if you're members of the Academy watching, vote for this film.

00:58:46.000 Did you feel that there was a lot of pressure?

00:58:48.000 I know it was a short scene, but Don Rickles in the realm of comedy, that's a lot of pressure for someone to portray them on screen.

00:58:55.000 You know, it's funny.

00:58:56.000 The pressure I felt was, because I've been compared to him my whole career, but it's more about the voice and the shape of the face, because I like Rickles.

00:59:03.000 And the fact that you use Cornball.

00:59:04.000 Huh?

00:59:05.000 What are you, Cornball?

00:59:06.000 He goes, ah!

00:59:07.000 He goes, ah!

00:59:08.000 But it was a natural thing.

00:59:10.000 It was never anything I aspired to be.

00:59:12.000 So the fact that people would always say that when they offered me the role, I didn't have to audition for it.

00:59:17.000 They said Scorsese watched one or two of my specials.

00:59:19.000 He's like, yeah, this guy can do it.

00:59:21.000 So then he brought me in and I had a meeting with him and we just talked comedy.

00:59:24.000 So I didn't represent to him like, dude, I'll be the best Rickles you've ever seen.

00:59:28.000 The fact that he offered it to me removed pressure.

00:59:32.000 But then when I walked in the room, I walked in the room and it was literally just Scorsese De Niro and Pesci standing there talking.

00:59:39.000 It was an empty room except for those three in between scenes.

00:59:43.000 And I'm like, first of all, I'm looking at Raging Bull.

00:59:44.000 I'm looking at Goodfellas.

00:59:45.000 I'm looking at Casino.

00:59:46.000 Right.

00:59:47.000 But I'm also looking at guys who knew Rickles.

00:59:50.000 Like Scorsese was friends with him.

00:59:52.000 De Niro loved him.

00:59:54.000 Pesci loved him and did Casino with him.

00:59:56.000 So that was the intimidating part is that you were doing Rickles in front of people who like really were his friends.

01:00:01.000 So that was a little nerve wracking.

01:00:02.000 And did they give you any feedback or tips?

01:00:04.000 Like, no, no, Don wouldn't say it this way.

01:00:06.000 Or were they pretty, pretty welcoming?

01:00:08.000 They were really great.

01:00:10.000 I mean, uh, I had a bunch of extra jokes that I just kind of like old Rickles ones that I brought just so the audience wouldn't get bored because it was scripted.

01:00:18.000 So I was all these other ones when Chris Corsage went, all right, just start doing lines.

01:00:22.000 And he just threw it to me.

01:00:23.000 So I was lucky I had these Rickles lines prepared.

01:00:26.000 So, um, You know, what was your question?

01:00:30.000 I don't remember what the question is, but that brings me to the next point, which is how much of this film, how much of it is improvised?

01:00:35.000 Because there's a lot of sort of conjecture surrounding that with Martin Scorsese.

01:00:38.000 And I do imagine, you know, he reuses a lot of the same actors.

01:00:40.000 I don't know who I was just talking about with this or about this.

01:00:44.000 What did I just say?

01:00:45.000 My phrase?

01:00:45.000 Did I just have a stroke?

01:00:46.000 Anyway.

01:00:47.000 I was discussing this with someone saying, you know, Quentin Tarantino doesn't really use the same actors a whole lot, except for, like, Kurt Russell.

01:00:53.000 Madsen.

01:00:54.000 Yeah, Madsen.

01:00:54.000 Madsen.

01:00:55.000 And a couple of those.

01:00:57.000 Scorsese kind of has his regular crew.

01:00:58.000 And I will say this, if you see, like, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, brilliant actors, but if you watch them in interviews, they seem sometimes, like a lot of actors, a little uncomfortable in their skin.

01:01:07.000 They're not necessarily the quickest to the punch.

01:01:10.000 In an interview, they're a little more introspective.

01:01:12.000 So I've always wondered how much of it is really sticking to the script versus giving you some room to play.

01:01:17.000 Play with it.

01:01:18.000 You know, it's funny.

01:01:19.000 I think that for them, this script...

01:01:21.000 I think they probably respect whoever wrote the script, but they respect it enough to stick with the script.

01:01:27.000 Right.

01:01:27.000 But I've done a couple of small things, like De Niro opened my special, where he introduces me, and I wrote that, and I actually directed him in that, where he goes, what do you want me to do?

01:01:37.000 And me and him sat down, his assistants cleared the room, and they're like, Jim and Bob will talk.

01:01:43.000 Like, yeah, I guess we will.

01:01:48.000 But watching him, he kind of meanders through it a little bit.

01:01:54.000 But you're not sure where he's gonna go.

01:01:56.000 And then when the camera's on, you're like, oh, that's right.

01:01:59.000 It's De Niro.

01:02:01.000 and you see when he clicks in and he's doing it for real, like where it's natural,

01:02:06.000 you're like, this guy is just a master at what he does.

01:02:08.000 And that to me is, so they stick to the script, but I think he works through it a little bit.

01:02:13.000 He'll go take after take until he kind of has what he wants.

01:02:15.000 I've watched him do that, but he's very comfortable making a mistake.

01:02:19.000 He's very comfortable screwing up a line.

01:02:22.000 So that's why he's so comfortable in doing what he's doing.

01:02:24.000 Like it was interesting to watch him mess up a line in a movie called The Comedian.

01:02:28.000 He was messing up a line.

01:02:29.000 Right.

01:02:29.000 But he didn't care.

01:02:31.000 He was just like, I'll redo it.

01:02:32.000 Like very casual and comfortable.

01:02:34.000 Yeah.

01:02:34.000 It was amazing to watch a guy that good at what he does.

01:02:37.000 Yeah.

01:02:37.000 The only thing is just don't ask him to go higher energy if he's at his peak.

01:02:40.000 Have you ever seen that that outtake where he's doing a commercial for like a PSA?

01:02:45.000 Oh no.

01:02:45.000 And he says something like, uh, so please give generously to whatever the organization is.

01:02:49.000 And you just hear off camera.

01:02:50.000 Yeah.

01:02:50.000 Okay.

01:02:50.000 Just a little high energy.

01:02:52.000 No, no, excuse me.

01:02:53.000 That was high energy.

01:02:54.000 I'm not selling cars.

01:02:55.000 I'm not selling cars.

01:02:56.000 Excuse me.

01:02:57.000 That was high energy.

01:02:58.000 And they're just like, yeah, they just go, okay.

01:03:01.000 They go, okay.

01:03:04.000 Like, okay.

01:03:05.000 And then if you see the actual commercial, that's the take they used.

01:03:08.000 Um, which was true.

01:03:10.000 He has a great instinct because he was spanking me.

01:03:15.000 In the opening of my special, he spanks me.

01:03:16.000 I didn't tell him until the day we shot. 0.63

01:03:18.000 And then when I'm over his lap, I laid on his lap and he bare-bottomed spanked me. 0.68

01:03:22.000 And then he goes, let's do one standing.

01:03:25.000 And that was the take we wound up using.

01:03:27.000 For some reason, visually, the energy of it, he just knows what he's doing.

01:03:31.000 And if he says that's the energy you're getting, that's the energy you're getting.

01:03:36.000 At that point, I think it's more so just a personal preference than a creative decision.

01:03:40.000 So I think he's thankful to you.

01:03:42.000 He's forever indebted.

01:03:44.000 A couple of things I wanted to ask you about, but I wanted to get something a little personal in my experience with your content recently and my friend who hadn't heard a lot of your material.

01:03:52.000 But first, this is...

01:03:54.000 Let me ask you, I guess, Ricky Gervais monologues.

01:03:56.000 I'm sure you've talked about this, the monologue and the backlash.

01:04:00.000 The thing that stood out to me the most was people trying to gaslight him.

01:04:03.000 If you read a lot of the articles saying, oh, Ricky Gervais does what he does.

01:04:06.000 And really, it was old hat.

01:04:07.000 And by this point, it was tired.

01:04:08.000 I'm going, that's not in sync with the reaction that we saw from the outrage.

01:04:14.000 What were your thoughts?

01:04:15.000 Do you think, A, was it funny?

01:04:16.000 And B, did you think it was needed?

01:04:19.000 It was amazing.

01:04:20.000 It's exactly what Ricky was supposed to do.

01:04:23.000 Like, anybody doubts that he's a real comedian.

01:04:25.000 Like, that's exactly... It was like Chris Rock at the Oscars.

01:04:27.000 Like, that's what a real comic does.

01:04:29.000 Like, he was, first of all, smart enough to talk to the people at home who are not celebrity leads.

01:04:34.000 Uh, Ricky didn't need to do that type of monologue.

01:04:37.000 He could have been playful and friendly, but his jokes were funny, and he called them out the way a comedian would call out an audience member.

01:04:44.000 Whoa! 0.71

01:04:45.000 He's like, I didn't do that.

01:04:46.000 You did.

01:04:47.000 You did.

01:04:48.000 Right.

01:04:48.000 Because Hollywood has this, and again, look, I love actors, and so it's fun to watch what they do.

01:04:53.000 Right.

01:04:53.000 but they get caught up in this babbling at the rest of us how to live, and they don't do it.

01:04:58.000 Like all this yapping about diversity and they can't get a female director,

01:05:01.000 and you know what I mean?

01:05:02.000 Like they talk a good game, and I think Ricky capitalized on that and mocked them for

01:05:07.000 it. 1.00

01:05:07.000 And stupid people like the LA Times, these fake woke idiots that didn't appreciate 1.00

01:05:13.000 the message he was giving. 1.00

01:05:14.000 He was brilliant.

01:05:15.000 He did exactly what he should have done.

01:05:17.000 And any of them that didn't like it, like it ruined their night! 0.98

01:05:21.000 How about you stop playing each other in movies, you jackasses? 0.96

01:05:24.000 If you're that sensitive to content, how about that? 0.94

01:05:26.000 How about you stop playing guys like Ted Bundy and Edmund Kemper in films and only play nice?

01:05:33.000 Oh, that's right.

01:05:34.000 For you, art is OK to do what you want.

01:05:36.000 But for Ricky, his art should be tempered to make you comfortable.

01:05:39.000 Well, I am glad to hear your opinion.

01:05:41.000 And you know what?

01:05:42.000 That is interesting.

01:05:42.000 I had this conversation with kind of a more conservative relative of mine who wouldn't watch this comedy.

01:05:47.000 Like, oh, that was just too raunchy.

01:05:49.000 I said, you watch Law & Order SVU. 0.99

01:05:52.000 It's a severed, raped body every night. 0.99

01:05:54.000 Like, that is exploitation. 0.99

01:05:56.000 And by the way, they know that it's exploitation.

01:05:58.000 They're not necessarily pushing a message.

01:05:59.000 Like, how many episodes do you need if you're trying to push a message like, hey, don't rape bodies and leave them in the river? 0.68

01:06:04.000 No, you guys, this is filth. 0.93

01:06:06.000 This is basically a smut novel at this point.

01:06:10.000 And it is funny with comedy how there is always this whole like, hey, look, that should not be joked.

01:06:16.000 But it's almost like as I hate to say as artists, but as somebody who performs for a living, you use what's in the world.

01:06:23.000 How come actors can use what's in the world?

01:06:25.000 Authors can use what's in the world.

01:06:26.000 They never get accused of punching down.

01:06:28.000 They never get accused of a pro.

01:06:29.000 But, you know, if you're a comedian and you don't tell a joke that somehow completely backs up somebody's ideology, you're a terrible comedian who's doing it wrong. 0.97

01:06:39.000 It's just silly. 0.96

01:06:40.000 And Ricky didn't pay any. 0.64

01:06:42.000 Ricky's great because he has a lot to lose.

01:06:45.000 I mean, he's at the top of the heap, and he still is on Twitter saying whatever he wants to say.

01:06:49.000 He still does a monologue exactly the way he should do a monologue.

01:06:53.000 I love him, man.

01:06:54.000 He's one of my favorite people.

01:06:55.000 That being said, I will acknowledge that I'm somewhat hypocritical and that I think your primary function, obviously, as a comedian, or as an actor, is to entertain.

01:07:03.000 And I do think at the end of that, He was off book, and some of those things weren't necessarily punchlines.

01:07:09.000 It was just, you know what, because you reacted this way, I'm going to dig the knife in a little bit and get off stage.

01:07:13.000 But I appreciated it because I felt like it was appropriate.

01:07:16.000 Because the only people who were having fun at that, it seemed like, was it Ray Romano and Adam Driver, were the only ones who were genuinely enjoying it.

01:07:23.000 Wouldn't you, if you're an actor and your name pops up, you know, if you know that your name is going to leave Ricky Gervais' lips, if you hate it, still just kind of, oh, that's good.

01:07:31.000 And then call your agent and have him never work again.

01:07:34.000 Dude, I would I this is why I love him so much because I'm such a I'm such a coward Kim like literally he looks at Who's the guy from Apple Tim Cook and he makes fun of the sweatshops and he calls them out While he's sitting in the room, I would be so like I love Apple could I have a MacBook like I'm such a I admired his ability to do it right to their faces.

01:07:57.000 He probably did turn the night, but that Weinstein joke was great. 0.97

01:08:00.000 And then instead of like, they did what some other dumb audience would do. 0.98

01:08:03.000 They were like, oh, I said, what are you groaning at? 0.99

01:08:05.000 It's a good joke.

01:08:06.000 You know what I mean?

01:08:07.000 Living life like you're blind and you don't see for the bird box, comparing it to working for Weinstein.

01:08:12.000 It was a good joke.

01:08:13.000 And it kind of said what he wanted to say.

01:08:15.000 And they reacted how he predicted they would react.

01:08:17.000 Yeah, well, especially the Epstein thing.

01:08:18.000 You think that they would react laughing and clap like, ha, ha, ha!

01:08:22.000 We hate Epstein, especially when he goes, you were friends with him.

01:08:25.000 They're like, oh, oh.

01:08:26.000 It's like, no, no.

01:08:27.000 Put some distance between yourself and Epstein.

01:08:29.000 This is a lifeline.

01:08:31.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:08:32.000 Oh yeah, the Prince Andrew one, when he said, hey mate, you know, she's a little young, but DiCaprio's girlfriend.

01:08:37.000 It was funny, man.

01:08:39.000 Yeah, I really enjoyed it, and we'll go to a web extension here, but I really liked Dave Chappelle's Mark Twain Prize acceptance speech, too, because that was, he wasn't preaching at all, but he did get up and sort of talk about the importance of comedy, and it really was apolitical in saying every single point of view is represented in comedy.

01:08:58.000 Correct me if I'm wrong, I feel almost like he was saying, hey, every single point of view should continue to be represented in comedy.

01:09:05.000 I felt like that was the point he was making a little bit, because we've seen people get canceled now, even in stand-up clubs it happens.

01:09:12.000 Well, Dave is so, I mean, he's such a smart guy.

01:09:14.000 I mean, he's a great comic because he's such a brilliant guy.

01:09:17.000 And the fact that he was able to say it as, like, it was a beautifully packaged, If I had to say something about comedy in today's culture, I would just want to kind of write down what Dave said and repeat it.

01:09:29.000 The way he said it was so beautiful and smart and it covered everything, but like you said, it wasn't preachy, it wasn't over the top, and it wasn't even confrontational.

01:09:38.000 It was just very factual.

01:09:40.000 And Dave is so at the top of everything we're all doing, they can't mess with him.

01:09:45.000 So what they'll do is they'll ignore the poignancy of what he said.

01:09:48.000 Like, they'll attack his jokes, but anybody who's against that point of view, what he said is so smart, you can't combat it.

01:09:55.000 Yeah.

01:09:55.000 What do you do?

01:09:55.000 He's not a white man saying it, so they can't blame it on that.

01:09:59.000 You know what I mean? 0.98

01:09:59.000 He's not a dumb guy saying it, so they can't blame it on lack of intelligence. 0.98

01:10:02.000 He's a brilliant guy, so instead of confronting it and realizing he's right, they'll just pretend they didn't hear it.

01:10:07.000 Right.

01:10:07.000 Okay, so we're going to go to a web extended here for people who are not Mug Club members.

01:10:10.000 Please do join up at Mug Club.

01:10:12.000 Before we go, Jim, where's the best place for people to find you?

01:10:15.000 I know they can follow you, jimnorton.com, but you're doing lots of shows.

01:10:18.000 Where should they support you?

01:10:20.000 The Degenerates on Netflix came out New Year's Eve.

01:10:23.000 I'm very happy with this set.

01:10:24.000 And also, I got dates coming up at the Wilbur Theater in Boston, April 4th.

01:10:28.000 There's a late show added, April 3rd, Foxwoods in Connecticut, or just Twitter.

01:10:32.000 I'm around.

01:10:33.000 Look at this.

01:10:34.000 He's doing theaters.

01:10:35.000 No more strip malls.

01:10:36.000 I'll get there one day.

01:10:37.000 All right, Jim Norton, we're going to WebExtended.

01:10:39.000 We'll wrap this up for people who are on the YouTube.

01:10:44.000 Open your mind.

01:10:45.000 Let us begin our quest to find it and no sound.

01:10:49.000 Music.

01:10:58.000 3, 2, 1.

01:11:06.000 3, 2, 1.

01:11:10.000 That was it. That was smooth.

01:11:16.000 That was it.

01:11:17.000 Don't eat too much.

01:11:29.000 No! F***! 1.00

01:11:30.000 You had it, then you ruined it by talking! 1.00

01:11:32.000 It was the perfect take!

01:11:34.000 The whole point was to avoid the media gatekeepers of legacy, okay?

01:11:38.000 So, uh, let's do it again.

01:11:39.000 I don't believe that I'm getting any better.

01:11:42.000 Cool.

01:11:43.000 Any better.

01:11:45.000 All right.

01:11:46.000 Phone without you there, I'm very lonely.

01:11:48.000 La la la la la la. 0.78

01:11:50.000 Wish you'd all stop.

01:11:52.000 We all have someone back home!

01:11:55.000 I've got my wife, and Wade's got his wife, and Brendan has a sister, and that's kinda weird, but listen, he's from Arkansas!

01:12:03.000 Brendan, I don't know what you do with your sister, maybe it's the on-again-off-again definition of it, but the point is, this guy has it worse than anyone else, because he's gonna be out here fighting and then go back just to be chased down with some German shepherds and a firehouse and a pizza parlor!

01:12:19.000 What's your home defense plan?

01:12:49.000 When it comes to safety, there's no substitute for a quality firearm.

01:12:52.000 And if you're a gun owner, there's no replacement for Firearms Legal Protection.

01:12:57.000 Firearms Legal Protection provides lawful gun owners an uncapped legal defense program, 24-7 emergency hotline, access to a network of over 2,500 experienced attorneys, legal education on firearm laws in your state via our mobile app, and plans to protect you every step of the way if you are involved in a self-defense incident.

01:13:15.000 Visit firearmslegal.com slash LWC today.

01:13:18.000 Thanks for watching.

01:13:25.000 Be safe out there.

01:13:32.000 Bye.

01:13:39.000 That was a drowning dance where I was tentative, I was nervous, I was apprehensive, and insert

01:14:08.000 other synonym here of jumping into the water because of my 1% Sub-Saharan African.

01:14:14.000 Yeah, it does work against you.

01:14:16.000 And then I gained confidence, but I forgot that I was too far from the surface and I died.

01:14:21.000 Drowning.

01:14:21.000 So, thank you, Jim Norton.

01:14:24.000 Thank you to everyone, of course, here on the wonderful team who put on this week's great show.

01:14:24.000 Thank you very much.

01:14:28.000 We have a full week of shows next week for those who are on Mug Club, of course, clips on YouTube, and an extended exclusive interview with Jim Norton behind the paywall at Mug Club.

01:14:37.000 Very funny.

01:14:38.000 Every now and then we might want to get into some topics that may not be great for the tubans youse.

01:14:46.000 I don't even want to auto-recognize if I say the words, then the moderators go and watch it.

01:14:50.000 I picture that's what it's like at the offices.

01:14:51.000 Oh, he's sub-Saharan African, so he can use the word. 1.00

01:14:55.000 I picture that's what it's like at the offices.

01:14:56.000 Yeah, that's exactly what it's like.

01:14:58.000 He has a 23 in me, I guess.

01:15:01.000 OK.

01:15:03.000 All right, so this is my kind of first close of the week.

01:15:06.000 Here's one thing I wanted to talk about a little bit.

01:15:09.000 And you may not like it, OK?

01:15:12.000 But one thing I think, we look at the depression epidemic in the country, and people consider it an epidemic, right?

01:15:19.000 The mental health issues in this country.

01:15:21.000 It is a little bizarre when you think.

01:15:24.000 And I was wondering about this, I was talking with a relative over Christmas break, and that's what sort of forced me to ponder, if I may use the phrase. 0.99

01:15:32.000 Or you can kick my ass for using it, I know. 0.98

01:15:34.000 Only douches use the word ponder and lovely. 1.00

01:15:37.000 I've never heard someone use the term lovely unless they were trying to lie about something.

01:15:41.000 Well, unless this fruitcake is lovely.

01:15:44.000 I get it.

01:15:45.000 But it did force me to think about this a little bit.

01:15:47.000 You know, we have what we refer to as a depression, as a mental health, as a hopelessness epidemic in this country with young people.

01:15:54.000 And I'm not talking about people who have clinical depression or a chemical imbalance, and I don't want to get into that.

01:15:59.000 That's kind of a number of people that have, it's been relatively stable.

01:16:03.000 But people, when polled, young people who have a feeling of hopelessness and believe that their opportunities will be fewer than their parents.

01:16:11.000 This is the first generation to feel that way.

01:16:14.000 And it's bizarre that they feel that way when we live in the most marvelous time throughout all of humanity.

01:16:22.000 We have more tools and resources at our disposal, and people are depressed, or they're looking at the world as bleak.

01:16:29.000 And this comes from a simple concept, and I'm not saying anything new necessarily.

01:16:34.000 I'm sure Jordan Peterson has talked about this, and people like Jaco Willink who've been on the show.

01:16:37.000 I'm sure I've talked about this at some point.

01:16:39.000 All satisfaction, all accomplishment, all pleasure comes from pain.

01:16:46.000 And so I don't think we have a problem in this country of people who are in too much pain.

01:16:50.000 I think we have a problem right now, not in this country, but across the globe, of people who don't experience enough pain.

01:16:57.000 And that's why they don't experience the elation.

01:17:00.000 It's why they don't experience the bliss of overcoming pain.

01:17:03.000 Let me explain it to you a little bit.

01:17:04.000 Let me give you a little bit of context.

01:17:08.000 You're hungry.

01:17:08.000 Okay?

01:17:09.000 You're hungry.

01:17:10.000 And when you eat, I bring you a steak dinner.

01:17:13.000 I bring you a bunch of Singapore rice noodles.

01:17:13.000 I don't know.

01:17:15.000 Take your pick.

01:17:16.000 It's satisfying.

01:17:17.000 The pleasure comes from the fulfillment of a required need.

01:17:23.000 Right?

01:17:24.000 The pain of being hungry, the discomfort of being hungry, leads to the pleasure, the satisfaction of now being full.

01:17:31.000 Now, let me ask you this.

01:17:32.000 How many of you out there experience pleasure or satisfaction from eating food when you're already stuffed?

01:17:39.000 If I bring you another steak dinner, if I bring you another plate of rice noodles, maybe it starts getting a little less appetizing.

01:17:44.000 I bring you a third one, and then I force you to eat it.

01:17:47.000 Guess what?

01:17:48.000 That's no longer pleasant.

01:17:50.000 Let's use another example.

01:17:51.000 You sweat.

01:17:51.000 You go to the gym.

01:17:52.000 You're jogging in the rain where it's cold, right?

01:17:54.000 A lot of people out there, you've been sending in your fitness videos and kind of how you've been losing weight over the break.

01:17:54.000 It's winter.

01:18:00.000 Appreciate it.

01:18:01.000 Keep it up.

01:18:02.000 You get home, and what happens after the jog in the rain?

01:18:05.000 How good does that shower feel?

01:18:08.000 Everyone knows that a hot shower, it feels amazing.

01:18:11.000 It comes, that happiness stems from the fulfillment of a need being met.

01:18:17.000 Discomfort, pain, cold, it's 20 degrees, I'm wet, I need to get into a shower, I need to warm up and to clean myself, and ah, it's bliss.

01:18:29.000 Now, let's change that.

01:18:30.000 How many of you out there, and there's nothing wrong with this, I'm guilty of this sometimes on the weekend, how many of you have just had a comfortable pajama day where you lay around and do nothing?

01:18:39.000 Sometimes you may not even shower on those days.

01:18:42.000 I know, particularly women.

01:18:43.000 I don't know what it is, but men, in my experience, tend to be more meticulous about showering and women can get away with it because they don't smell the same way men do after one day.

01:18:51.000 Anyway, these are things that you learn when you're married.

01:18:54.000 Takes a couple years.

01:18:56.000 I did not realize this.

01:18:57.000 You don't have to shower every single day? 0.81

01:19:00.000 And you don't smell like a crotch swamp? 0.86

01:19:03.000 Good for you.

01:19:05.000 But how many of you have had days where you haven't gone out and done anything active?

01:19:08.000 You haven't really, you haven't soiled yourself, and I know that that'll be used here.

01:19:13.000 You take a shower that day.

01:19:15.000 Do you get the same feeling of bliss from the shower if you come in from the cold?

01:19:19.000 It's really just sort of, well, I guess I'll do this.

01:19:22.000 It's not the same because it's not a need that's being met.

01:19:25.000 There isn't the discomfort, the displacement, the pain of having a need not yet met.

01:19:32.000 So I want to tell you this.

01:19:34.000 If you find yourself maybe looking at a bleak life or what you see as a hopeless outcome, a lot of people think, okay, I've got to find a way to make myself comfortable.

01:19:44.000 Not always.

01:19:45.000 Don't be that person who is always full, warm, and comfortable.

01:19:51.000 You'll never be happy.

01:19:53.000 And that's hard for a lot of people, contrary to popular belief.

01:19:55.000 Again, nearly all of the problems that are considered an epidemic today are not, in the United States anyway, let's separate that from third world countries, they're not the result of lack.

01:20:06.000 They're the result of overabundance.

01:20:08.000 Nearly all of them.

01:20:09.000 Let's go through a few examples.

01:20:10.000 Economic, social, mental, even physical health, right?

01:20:13.000 For example, most of the economic problems in the West now.

01:20:16.000 If you tune into a democratic debate, they're not talking about poverty.

01:20:21.000 Maybe some.

01:20:22.000 But the most prominent theme that we hear is about the income gap.

01:20:29.000 It's about the chasm, because poverty in the Western world is lower than ever.

01:20:33.000 And by the way, it's lower than ever, with a standard of living for those in poverty higher than that of rich people from any other generation, of sultans.

01:20:43.000 In most cases, a higher standard than royalty of people from previous generations.

01:20:47.000 So we hear the epidemic is the wealth gap.

01:20:49.000 Poverty is lower than ever, but now we have an epidemic that there are some people who have so much more than other people.

01:20:54.000 The problem there is not a lack of resources.

01:20:57.000 The problem stems from an overabundance of resources and a lack of appreciation.

01:21:03.000 The poor have more than enough resources, and people won't like this here, but the poor in the United States, generally, have more than enough resources to live comfortably.

01:21:13.000 And then the wealthy have more than enough resources to build and accrue even more wealth, and so that gap increases.

01:21:20.000 The poor in the United States are generally not starving.

01:21:23.000 They generally aren't cold without heat.

01:21:26.000 They're generally not sick and cast aside for dead as they used to be, and I'm talking only a couple hundred years ago.

01:21:33.000 They often have two cars, three square meals plus snacks, often bought at restaurants, a climate-controlled house, access to technology that Simon Cowell couldn't imagine 18 years ago.

01:21:45.000 But they're unhappy.

01:21:47.000 And not only the poor, the middle class are unhappy.

01:21:49.000 Why?

01:21:49.000 Because someone else has far more than them.

01:21:52.000 Now, that gap is real.

01:21:55.000 But it's a byproduct of overabundance for everyone.

01:22:00.000 The obesity epidemic.

01:22:00.000 We hear about that all the time.

01:22:01.000 That was Michelle Obama's campaign. 0.98

01:22:03.000 Get out and move.

01:22:04.000 You first.

01:22:06.000 Now, people aren't obese because they're starving.

01:22:12.000 They're not obese because of a lack of access to food.

01:22:15.000 And by the way, food deserts are a myth, especially in 2019 with Amazon Fresh.

01:22:18.000 I remember there used to be those commercials.

01:22:20.000 Remember that?

01:22:20.000 Food deserts!

01:22:21.000 People in Harlem can't get an apple! 1.00

01:22:24.000 But my bullshit detector goes... Wait, they can't get an apple? 1.00

01:22:29.000 Now, people are not... Okay, let's go with what... People are obese.

01:22:36.000 Not because they don't have food.

01:22:37.000 Not only do they have more food than they need, but they are required, people in this country, to work less than anyone in history to procure it.

01:22:46.000 More access to food than ever.

01:22:48.000 They don't have to hunt for it.

01:22:49.000 They don't have to forage for it.

01:22:50.000 They don't have to skin it, cure it, cut it or cook it.

01:22:53.000 People in this country, not all, I know some of you are going to say it's glandular, I get it, but a lot of people are obese because when they're hungry, the food is there.

01:23:03.000 And they need accomplish nothing for it.

01:23:06.000 And they're obese because, when they're not hungry, the food is there.

01:23:10.000 And they need not work for it.

01:23:12.000 And so, why not?

01:23:15.000 You become numb to it.

01:23:16.000 Comfort becomes so second nature, it becomes taken for granted, that you don't even realize what it is you have.

01:23:22.000 The same goes, by the way, let's get back to this, the idea of depression.

01:23:26.000 Feelings of hopelessness.

01:23:27.000 I've talked about actually struggling with clinical depression my whole adult life, okay?

01:23:31.000 I get it.

01:23:32.000 But people now who feel hopelessness, you see a lot of young people today who feel that way.

01:23:38.000 It's an epidemic, we hear.

01:23:40.000 There are more young people depressed than any generations before them.

01:23:44.000 Why?

01:23:45.000 You have to ask why.

01:23:46.000 Do they have it worse than the young people drafted in World War II?

01:23:51.000 What about the kids of early settlers?

01:23:53.000 What about the peasants in the Roman Empire?

01:23:55.000 What about child slaves?

01:23:59.000 Many people feel hopeless for the same reason that many people are obese.

01:24:04.000 The needs are always met, and so happiness somehow eludes them.

01:24:09.000 Why?

01:24:09.000 Because constant comfort cannot, it is incapable of breeding true happiness.

01:24:16.000 For the same reason that the meal is never satisfying for someone who's always full, and that shower, it can never be that bliss, that nirvana-like state for the person who never sweat and bled and earned it, Let's go to healthcare.

01:24:31.000 This is another one all the time because this is just in doing research, watching the Democratic debates.

01:24:35.000 We have a healthcare epidemic in the United States.

01:24:37.000 It's a crisis.

01:24:39.000 Think about that for a second.

01:24:41.000 How?

01:24:43.000 How is there a healthcare crisis in 2019, 2020, I have to get used to writing down 2020, I'm still writing 2019.

01:24:49.000 How is there a health crisis in the nation that has cured more diseases than any to have come before it, bar none, not even close, has more technology, medical innovation than any other country in the history of the world, has the highest survival rate of life-threatening diseases?

01:25:06.000 How is it in the throes of healthcare crisis?

01:25:10.000 Oh, what it stems from is people having better health care than anyone on the planet 50 years ago, but not as good as the next guy.

01:25:21.000 I want you to understand, and this is something that's tough, because, and you see this a lot, if you were raised in wealth, you know, this idea of a silver spoon.

01:25:27.000 We hear this quite a bit, and I've seen that.

01:25:30.000 I've seen wealthy kids who never appreciated what they had, but I've also seen poor kids.

01:25:36.000 Let me give you a story.

01:25:37.000 I'm going to be going a little bit long, but forgive me.

01:25:41.000 My wife lived in a motel for a while while her dad was starting up a business.

01:25:48.000 Then later on in life, in her early kind of teens, they were doing pretty well.

01:25:52.000 Or sorry, I should say probably around six, seven years old.

01:25:55.000 When she was eight, her father took her to Tijuana so that she would appreciate what she had in the United States.

01:26:05.000 My wife is so thrifty. 1.00

01:26:08.000 We don't lack financial resources.

01:26:10.000 We're not millionaires.

01:26:11.000 We're not rich.

01:26:11.000 We're not part of the top zero point.

01:26:13.000 But I'm really, really grateful for what we have as someone who lived out of an 82 Datsun.

01:26:17.000 But my wife still makes sure to find the best deal. 1.00

01:26:20.000 She coupons, right?

01:26:22.000 I knew someone who was divorced household.

01:26:27.000 Not wealthy at all.

01:26:28.000 This was in New York City when I was there, and I had a Gateway computer.

01:26:32.000 This is a true story.

01:26:33.000 I had a Gateway computer, and the reason I got it was it was a year old, and it was a floor model at CompUSA.

01:26:37.000 You guys remember that?

01:26:38.000 CompUSA?

01:26:39.000 So I got it.

01:26:40.000 It was really inexpensive.

01:26:41.000 It was one of the early kind of, like, 14-inch smaller computers.

01:26:45.000 It was woefully underpowered.

01:26:46.000 Anyway, this girl liked that computer. 0.98

01:26:49.000 Girl from this family, not super wealthy.

01:26:51.000 Her dad, who was a friend of mine, bought her a custom Dell, because she was about to go to college.

01:26:57.000 And I remember him telling me beforehand, showing me the Dell, and he was so, and Dells are still around, right?

01:27:01.000 The guy went to prison.

01:27:02.000 Dude, you're getting a Dell? 0.97

01:27:03.000 Well, dude, you're getting sodomized. 0.99

01:27:05.000 So, I remember the dad telling me how excited he was, and showing it to me, and it had this like matte black finish, which now you see on cars, which is just god-awful, but I remember it really clearly, going, man, she's gonna love that. 0.68

01:27:18.000 And I was there.

01:27:20.000 When she opened it up.

01:27:21.000 Poor girl. 1.00

01:27:23.000 And she opened it up and the very first thing she said was, It's not cute like his.

01:27:29.000 And pointed to mine.

01:27:31.000 Here's the thing. 1.00

01:27:32.000 My Gateway was a piece of crap. 0.99

01:27:34.000 It didn't work well at all. 0.99

01:27:36.000 I'm pretty sure it wasn't just a floor model.

01:27:38.000 I'm pretty sure that the employees at CompUSA played kickball with it.

01:27:43.000 It never worked right, but she thought that it looked nicer and compact, and her Dell was a full-size laptop.

01:27:48.000 Oh, the nerve.

01:27:49.000 The very first thing she said was not, thank you, Dad.

01:27:53.000 Not, oh my gosh, I have, look at all of this technology I have in the palm of my hands now.

01:27:57.000 Thank you for thinking of me.

01:27:58.000 It's not as cute as his.

01:28:00.000 So you can have wealthy people whose parents take them to Tijuana to make them appreciate what they have, and you can have people who live in lower middle class or poor households who never, ever learn to appreciate it.

01:28:13.000 It stems from putting yourself in positions of discomfort.

01:28:13.000 Why?

01:28:17.000 If you live a life in which you are entirely warm, fed, clothed, and satisfied, you will never accomplish great things.

01:28:27.000 You'll never accomplish great things, and you will never appreciate what it is that you have.

01:28:30.000 So, this is my challenge to you this week.

01:28:33.000 And it's a little more than just doing gratitudes, right?

01:28:35.000 I don't want people like, oh, I'm going to do my boundary box with my in-laws and gratitudes.

01:28:38.000 No.

01:28:38.000 I want you to go through this more specifically.

01:28:41.000 Do a deep dive kind of right now in your heart and your soul.

01:28:44.000 Think about what it is that, especially if you're out there and you're feeling hopeless or depressed or lost.

01:28:50.000 I want you to think about what it is that maybe you take for granted that you enjoy on a day-to-day basis that wouldn't even have been available to your father, to your mother, certainly not your grandfather.

01:29:03.000 I want you to think about what it is on a day-to-day basis.

01:29:06.000 Do you have a cable television?

01:29:07.000 Do you have internet access?

01:29:08.000 Do you have a smartphone?

01:29:10.000 Let's go further.

01:29:11.000 Does your family have two cars?

01:29:13.000 Do you have heat, let alone air conditioning?

01:29:18.000 Are you starving on any given day?

01:29:21.000 Do you have lunch?

01:29:21.000 Do you have snacks in the cupboard?

01:29:24.000 Are you able to, even if you're not a good student, make up for those grades and go to a community college?

01:29:28.000 Hey, are you lucky enough to not be drafted into some of the deadliest wars of all time?

01:29:33.000 I want you to look at the, because by the way, this was commonplace, everything that I just named, not long ago in the realm of human history.

01:29:40.000 I want you to take inventory and then, take a second, I want you to find a way to make yourself as uncomfortable as humanly possible on a day-to-day basis. 0.54

01:29:51.000 That's why I've talked about this for particularly men.

01:29:54.000 Listen, I'm a Christian.

01:29:55.000 Find Christ.

01:29:56.000 Find a good wife. 0.97

01:29:57.000 Have a good family.

01:29:58.000 That's most important.

01:29:59.000 Number two on that list is weightlifting or some kind of a sport that's tough on your body.

01:30:05.000 Why?

01:30:06.000 Because you need to feel discomfort on a day-to-day basis so you can taste Victory.

01:30:14.000 So I want you to find ways to make sure that you don't go through the next week or the next month or 2020 taking it for granted because you're really nothing more than a fat cat on a pillow with someone feeding them grapes.

01:30:27.000 And by the way, hey, there's another one!

01:30:30.000 Can you buy grapes?

01:30:33.000 That wasn't doable if you were on the East Coast 100 years ago!

01:30:37.000 Your grandfather was lucky if he got an orange in his stocking. 0.96

01:30:41.000 And if his dad was a real dick, he got coal. 0.96

01:30:45.000 So I want you to take inventory and let me know, how are you going to make yourself uncomfortable so that you can actually find true happiness? 0.99

01:30:53.000 Sounds simple.

01:30:54.000 Trust me, it's a way to live.
