00:00:01.000 Protected exclusively by Walther.

00:00:04.000 And Betty! 1.00

00:00:08.000 Worldwide now, the coronavirus taking a devastating toll.

00:00:11.000 Confirmed cases now top 300,000.

00:00:14.000 Over 13,000 have died.

00:00:16.000 Elizabeth Palmer is in London tonight tracking the crisis.

00:00:19.000 That's right.

00:00:23.000 Yeah.

00:00:28.000 Uh-huh.

00:00:29.000 Corona babies.

00:00:30.000 Believe it or not, that's Florida's governor, David P. Alligator.

00:00:33.000 He issued an executive order to see you later, Alligator.

00:00:38.000 Hi, it's Jimmy.

00:00:40.000 I hope you and your friends and your family are as well as can be expected in our new post-apocalyptic world.

00:00:46.000 I'm your host, Stephen Colbert.

00:00:48.000 You're watching the very special social distancing edition of the Late Show.

00:00:53.000 What's in my cupboard long? Searching like quarantine. Quarantine not alone.

00:01:12.000 You can watch other shows from my club. It's a month of everything.

00:01:22.000 Make it out alright. Alright, alright.

00:01:29.000 I want you.

00:01:30.000 Hand sanitizer at the door.

00:01:33.000 No toilet paper in the store.

00:01:36.000 Ha, such a long quarantine. 0.98

00:01:38.000 Oh damn, I think I'm gonna sneeze. 0.99

00:01:40.000 I swear, it's just the allergies. 1.00

00:01:42.000 Climb into the clear of the police, don't call the police You're a strange animal, that's what I know

00:02:10.000 You're a strange animal, I come to follow On your sweet, sweet

00:02:18.000 Oh, very glad to be with you.

00:02:22.000 This is called the I-Can't-Really-Swing-My-Arms-For-A-Proper-Gate-For-Running-Because-My-Shirt's-Too-Small.

00:02:27.000 But you can see, it's an XL.

00:02:30.000 So for people who think I deliberately wear short shirts...

00:02:34.000 I find XL shirts that are small.

00:02:35.000 Joke's on you.

00:02:37.000 It's more pre-emptive.

00:02:39.000 We have a big show for you today, and a big month coming up.

00:02:42.000 So first let me clarify, we have Deji DiNagla on the show, Irish gamer, 6 million subscribers.

00:02:47.000 I don't know how to pronounce his name, but hopefully he's okay.

00:02:51.000 And yes, as you saw there, I noticed all the late night hosts.

00:02:56.000 Well first let me introduce everybody.

00:02:57.000 Stu is here.

00:02:58.000 StuDoesAmerica.com.

00:02:59.000 Is there a specific percentage of Asian I need to be to sit here?

00:02:59.000 Yes!

00:03:03.000 Not so much.

00:03:04.000 Honestly, we haven't done a 23andMe on Bill, but I assume there's like 4% Bulldog.

00:03:11.000 His mom spent a lot of time in the live food market. 0.99

00:03:13.000 Porter Black Garrett is here.

00:03:15.000 Audio Wade, G. Morgan Jr.

00:03:17.000 How are you?

00:03:17.000 What's going on in the day?

00:03:18.000 I'm doing well.

00:03:19.000 I had to look.

00:03:19.000 It's Peju Cabernet.

00:03:21.000 Peju!

00:03:21.000 Peju.

00:03:21.000 It's what?

00:03:22.000 Peju?

00:03:23.000 P-E-J-U. 1.00

00:03:24.000 We don't tolerate antisemitism on the show.

00:03:28.000 I've noticed that the late night hosts, they're all broadcasting from their bathtub and apparently NBC doesn't have the budget for a lavalier microphone.

00:03:35.000 Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Samantha Bee, Trevor Noah, everyone's gone.

00:03:41.000 We've decided that they're acceptable risks.

00:03:42.000 Unacceptable risks here at Ladder of the Crowder and there's going to be it's going to be hashtag mug club quarantine If you enter in the promo code quarantine, you'll get $30 off the entire month of April starting next Monday Everything that's usually available exclusively at mug club the blaze all of this program will be available on YouTube as well as Three more shows.

00:04:03.000 Yeah morning drive shows.

00:04:04.000 Good morning mug club.

00:04:06.000 So every night at is it 9 p.m.

00:04:07.000 Eastern 9 p.m Monday through Thursday, and then Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 9 p.m., 10 p.m.

00:04:13.000 Eastern in the morning, 9 p.m.

00:04:15.000 Central.

00:04:16.000 And you guys can live chat.

00:04:18.000 If you are, of course, Mug Club members, you'll be able to chat. 0.99

00:04:20.000 We'll be doing giveaways.

00:04:21.000 I don't think I'll be receiving a relief check because my wife and I have the gall, I believe, to make over $75,000 a year joint household income.

00:04:27.000 But we're still going to give away some money.

00:04:30.000 And guns?

00:04:32.000 We'll give away a lot of stuff.

00:04:32.000 I have no idea.

00:04:33.000 Is it wrong that a minute ago when you said Samantha Bee's gone that I got excited?

00:04:36.000 Yeah, it is wrong.

00:04:37.000 It's wrong that you didn't have something more to say about that that was like a punchline, but I was about to turn and ask, is that legal to give away a gun?

00:04:43.000 And I realized it's just Stu.

00:04:44.000 It's just me.

00:04:45.000 Let's be clear.

00:04:47.000 Half-Asian Bill will be here for Mug Club Month. 1.00

00:04:49.000 He just, he can't be here right now because of lockdown and the SARS.

00:04:53.000 Of course.

00:04:54.000 Which is what I'm most sad about, that I can't make SARS jokes anymore.

00:04:58.000 That's lapsed.

00:04:59.000 Now it has to be coronavirus, and that's more sad than funny.

00:05:02.000 So, also good time this month.

00:05:04.000 Subscribe to Criter Bits.

00:05:05.000 We're going to have a lot of content going up there on YouTube, also going up on Apple Podcasts, Android, everywhere.

00:05:10.000 So a lot of content.

00:05:11.000 We know that you guys are kind of quarantined, getting a little stir-crazy, and we don't want you to feel like you're alone.

00:05:16.000 Go to lottocreditor.com slash schedule, where you can see the schedule for the whole month.

00:05:20.000 We really do appreciate it.

00:05:22.000 Not a doctor!

00:05:23.000 So this is how we can give back.

00:05:24.000 I can't fight fire.

00:05:26.000 When I hear fight fire with fire, I'm like, why not water?

00:05:29.000 Then it turns out it's a controlled burn.

00:05:32.000 So it just shows you, don't call me, call the fire department if your house is on fire.

00:05:36.000 And if you have a little bit of a tickle, call an ambulance.

00:05:39.000 If you want to watch some juvenile jokes, You tune in here.

00:05:43.000 Yeah.

00:05:44.000 You know where to go.

00:05:45.000 So we are going to be talking a whole lot.

00:05:46.000 Dehi Dhanagla will be on the show.

00:05:48.000 We'll be talking about how the coronavirus has handed the 2020 election to Donald Trump,

00:05:51.000 which brings me to my question of the day.

00:05:53.000 How do you think it'll affect the 2020 election?

00:05:56.000 Do you think it makes President Trump more likely, less likely to win re-election?

00:06:00.000 And do you think the daily televised press conferences have helped or hurt?

00:06:04.000 Spoiler alert, CNN, Rachel Maddow, and everyone on the left thinks that it actually helps

00:06:08.000 him so they want to stop broadcasting it.

00:06:10.000 That is freedom.

00:06:12.000 First, all the bad information out there, we do want to do our part, be responsible.

00:06:15.000 You should trust the medical professionals at the CDC. 0.98

00:06:19.000 God's gonna put a cancer in the butthole of every sodomite. 1.00

00:06:24.000 Every sodomite's butthole will get cancer in the butthole! 1.00

00:06:28.000 God's gonna have a flame coming out of your butthole! 1.00

00:06:31.000 You're going to have a flame coming out of your butthole! 1.00

00:06:35.000 If you thought that AIDS was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet! 1.00

00:06:39.000 and there'll be people walking around all over America with flames coming out of their butthole. 0.97

00:06:44.000 First off, they shouldn't be walking around anywhere with the lockdown. 0.99

00:06:50.000 Well, stay home if you have flames out of your butthole.

00:06:54.000 His area of specialty may be proctology. 0.94

00:06:56.000 Yes, he's very limited in scope.

00:06:59.000 He doesn't necessarily understand the geographical equation.

00:07:02.000 They'll be walking all over the country.

00:07:03.000 It'll look like a topographical map of flaming buttholes across the land! 0.99

00:07:08.000 A butthole! 0.99

00:07:09.000 I don't want to see no topographical map! 0.99

00:07:11.000 I don't want to see butthole flames in the Alps!

00:07:14.000 We don't have the Alps!

00:07:15.000 The Appalachian Trail!

00:07:16.000 You know!

00:07:17.000 Flaming buttholes! 1.00

00:07:18.000 Bang! 1.00

00:07:21.000 What's the rise, by the way, of self-quarantining?

00:07:22.000 It's not that awesome, Gerald.

00:07:24.000 Yeah, no.

00:07:26.000 Not it is.

00:07:30.000 Also the Sistine Chapel, that's just...

00:07:32.000 Yeah, that is awesome.

00:07:34.000 It's amusing, stash disturbing.

00:07:36.000 It's too, I apologize, it's a little different from the Glenn Beck show.

00:07:38.000 No, it's a tad different.

00:07:40.000 It's just a little tone.

00:07:42.000 So with the rise of the self-quarantining, you know, people live and play a lot of board games at home.

00:07:45.000 This is a thing people in the past, you know, Tom Hanks.

00:07:47.000 Here's one thing, as a white man, and I don't want to get into identity politics,

00:07:53.000 it's easy to forget that some folks don't feel represented in board games.

00:07:58.000 So it is nice to see some of the toy companies have been stepping up to be more inclusive.

00:08:05.000 Rock'em Sock'em Rabbis! 1.00

00:08:20.000 Oh boy!

00:08:22.000 Rock'em Sock'em Rabbis! 1.00

00:08:24.000 Boom! 0.99

00:08:26.000 Right in the kipper!

00:08:27.000 Press the buttons!

00:08:28.000 Move the joystick thingies!

00:08:29.000 Knock his kipper to the floor!

00:08:31.000 Right in the boonum! 0.87

00:08:32.000 You're the winner!

00:08:36.000 He's just like me!

00:08:38.000 Best two out of three?

00:08:38.000 Dad, you're my best friend.

00:08:41.000 Rock'em Sock'em Rabbis! 1.00

00:08:42.000 By Milton Bradstead.

00:08:45.000 Milton Bradson's stepping up to the plate.

00:08:47.000 They are!

00:08:48.000 Good for them.

00:08:49.000 They do control big board games.

00:08:52.000 I sent that to my friend Ben Shapiro and Jeremy at the Daily Wire.

00:08:57.000 Jeremy Boring sent me back a gif laughing his ass off.

00:09:00.000 Not a peep from Ben, so Ben, I apologize.

00:09:04.000 It's easier for me to ask for forgiveness afterwards.

00:09:07.000 It does seem like board games, when you're just handing dice back and forth to each other in a quarantine situation, is not ideal.

00:09:16.000 Suboptimal.

00:09:17.000 Especially when you have to blow on the dice or rub them on your taint.

00:09:21.000 That's a weird thing.

00:09:22.000 That doesn't make it lucky dice.

00:09:23.000 It does make it lucky.

00:09:24.000 That does help.

00:09:25.000 Oh, yeah.

00:09:25.000 Do it in Vegas.

00:09:26.000 They can't stop you.

00:09:27.000 The casinos cannot stop you.

00:09:30.000 Come on, Snickers! 0.99

00:09:35.000 We lost the nest egg!

00:09:37.000 So, finally, fast food chain, not finally, we have a lot to do.

00:09:41.000 Wishful thinking.

00:09:42.000 Fast food chain, Chick-fil-A, they've been closing their dining rooms, allowing takeout.

00:09:48.000 And drive-thru only delivery orders to combat the spread of coronavirus.

00:09:52.000 So good for them.

00:09:52.000 But not to be outdone, Taco Bell has announced that their tacos will now contain 14% less bat meat.

00:09:59.000 14% less.

00:10:00.000 But it gives that little taste.

00:10:03.000 You might think that 14% seems arbitrary.

00:10:05.000 They've done their cost analysis.

00:10:06.000 They have, yes.

00:10:08.000 Ratios.

00:10:09.000 They can only afford 14%.

00:10:11.000 By the way, international news.

00:10:13.000 You guys don't do as much international news over there.

00:10:14.000 No, we do not.

00:10:16.000 It's America first. 0.94

00:10:16.000 America. 0.94

00:10:17.000 America first.

00:10:19.000 You stop.

00:10:20.000 Internationally, Charles, he tested positive for the coronavirus.

00:10:26.000 So, you know, can't catch a break.

00:10:29.000 I think we have this from CNN.

00:10:30.000 Someone over 70, the Duke of Edinburgh is considered to be at higher risk than average for coronavirus.

00:10:35.000 So, see, dogs can be carriers.

00:10:37.000 And I know it seems like a cheap shot, but I took it.

00:10:43.000 That's rough.

00:10:44.000 It is a cheap shot.

00:10:45.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:10:46.000 She broke up that whole thing. 1.00

00:10:48.000 Princess Diana?

00:10:48.000 I agree.

00:10:49.000 Put her next to Princess Diana. 1.00

00:10:50.000 See, I always thought she looked more like a horse.

00:10:52.000 You think a dog.

00:10:54.000 I thought she looked like that Afghan breed of dog. 1.00

00:10:58.000 But I could see, are we talking like Arabian?

00:10:59.000 Are we talking Clydesdale?

00:11:01.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:11:01.000 That's a good question.

00:11:03.000 Not a fast horse.

00:11:03.000 I feel like a slow horse.

00:11:06.000 So probably Clydesdale area. 0.99

00:11:07.000 Like a retarded horse? 1.00

00:11:08.000 Yeah. 0.99

00:11:08.000 Well, wait. 0.99

00:11:09.000 No.

00:11:09.000 Yes.

00:11:09.000 Oh, I see what you're saying.

00:11:14.000 Just in case we weren't demonetized with flanning buttholes. 1.00

00:11:16.000 I wanted to make sure.

00:11:18.000 Do we find out here if Queen Elizabeth is immortal now?

00:11:23.000 I don't know.

00:11:24.000 Is it like the blood of the incestuous keeps you young? 0.82

00:11:28.000 Keeps you young but ugly?

00:11:28.000 Is that what it is?

00:11:30.000 I watched Dracula on Netflix.

00:11:35.000 First two episodes were great.

00:11:36.000 Third one, not so much.

00:11:37.000 Despite, by the way, Mohammed's saying that all of your diseases, in the Quran, that all of your diseases will be healed if you go to Medina.

00:11:44.000 The cities of Mecca and Medina are nearly empty right now.

00:11:48.000 So people are not making their pilgrimages.

00:11:50.000 There are no men in Mecca.

00:11:52.000 So you know what that means.

00:11:53.000 It's ladies night! 0.99

00:11:54.000 So get your free punch bowls. 0.96

00:11:57.000 Get your beatings on the beach.

00:12:01.000 The fear in her eyes. 0.60

00:12:03.000 The beautiful fear.

00:12:05.000 That was, like, nice.

00:12:05.000 You were into that.

00:12:06.000 I like that.

00:12:06.000 Yeah.

00:12:07.000 The beautiful fear in her eyes.

00:12:09.000 The way it should be.

00:12:11.000 That's what he was thinking.

00:12:12.000 The way it is meant to be.

00:12:13.000 Must present valid identification, six and older.

00:12:15.000 By the way, we have... Aw, come on.

00:12:17.000 That's not a limiting factor.

00:12:18.000 What, are they going to not sleep with six-year-olds?

00:12:22.000 What if they want to?

00:12:23.000 I don't know.

00:12:24.000 What do you want them to ask?

00:12:27.000 Sorry, you're going to have to, by the way, put your home in a blind trust.

00:12:29.000 Okay.

00:12:32.000 It's a fun process.

00:12:32.000 And we actually have two non-coronavirus stories, because I know a lot of you have been burnt out.

00:12:36.000 And to be clear, too, with the Mug Club quarantine, the month, we're doing some live chat with you guys.

00:12:42.000 We will still do a Thursday show.

00:12:44.000 Tuesday is similar to the Thursday show.

00:12:45.000 But we're doing a lot more conversational shows, live video game streaming.

00:12:48.000 So if it feels a little more relaxed right now, you know, we can't do this nine times a week.

00:12:54.000 We can, but I'd kill myself.

00:12:55.000 And then who are you paying? 0.99

00:12:58.000 Porter Black Garrett? 0.57

00:13:00.000 Stew?

00:13:00.000 Yeah, no, definitely.

00:13:01.000 You know what that's like.

00:13:04.000 So we do.

00:13:04.000 We have two non-coronavirus stories.

00:13:06.000 In China, an army of 100,000 ducks have been recruited to fight off a plague of locusts.

00:13:13.000 So another plague over there.

00:13:14.000 This, according to my favorite news source, the Book of Revelation.

00:13:18.000 Beware the four quack men.

00:13:20.000 Might be connected.

00:13:22.000 Yeah.

00:13:23.000 Obvious question here, who kills the ducks when this is over?

00:13:26.000 You don't need an army of tigers to kill the ducks? 0.85

00:13:29.000 No, they just eat them alive.

00:13:29.000 They're gonna eat them, yeah.

00:13:30.000 Eat them alive.

00:13:30.000 You will hear the whales across the sea.

00:13:31.000 I feel like you... Quack!

00:13:32.000 Quack! 0.98

00:13:40.000 Quack Actually, I wouldn't feel bad for Canadian geese.

00:13:43.000 They're the... They're the scum of the earth. 1.00

00:13:46.000 They're the scum of the earth. 1.00

00:13:47.000 They poop and they attack. 1.00

00:13:48.000 That's it.

00:13:49.000 They have two op... That's it.

00:13:50.000 There's only two modes.

00:13:51.000 There's poop mode and attack mode.

00:13:52.000 Have you been... I've been attacked by Canadian geese, like, three times.

00:13:54.000 Really?

00:13:55.000 I mean, physical contact.

00:13:56.000 Three times.

00:13:57.000 Yeah.

00:13:57.000 Really?

00:13:58.000 That's it.

00:13:59.000 Who won?

00:14:00.000 Well, I mean, I just ran away like a... I ran away like a pussy. 1.00

00:14:02.000 What am I, a goose? 1.00

00:14:04.000 It's a wild animal!

00:14:05.000 Yeah, and then somebody's got video of you beating up a defenseless wild animal.

00:14:07.000 They don't register pain the same way we do, right?

00:14:09.000 They peck, and we're like, ow!

00:14:11.000 And they're just like... They don't know.

00:14:13.000 They don't care.

00:14:13.000 No.

00:14:14.000 I have a family, like, story where I was actually bit by a bat as a child.

00:14:19.000 What?

00:14:19.000 Yes.

00:14:19.000 So you're the reason!

00:14:21.000 I'm the reason.

00:14:21.000 Like, I'm Wuhan Stu.

00:14:23.000 That's me.

00:14:25.000 That's gonna stick right now.

00:14:27.000 My parents came out and saw there was a bat, like, I guess I must have knocked it or something, and it was right next to us, and I had a bite mark on my stomach as a little kid.

00:14:34.000 What do you mean you guess you might have knocked a bat?

00:14:37.000 They hang up in the ceiling upside down.

00:14:39.000 There's no accidental bat knocking.

00:14:41.000 Well, they swooped at me or something, and I used my reflexes, my childlike reflexes.

00:14:47.000 I was able to knock down the bat.

00:14:48.000 The bat somehow struggled to its feet, walked over, took a bite out of my stomach, And then we have the coronavirus.

00:14:55.000 That's how it happens.

00:14:56.000 This is like a Rocky story, the bat just never goes down.

00:14:58.000 And the next Trump presser.

00:14:59.000 It came from stew.

00:15:04.000 This just in. 0.99

00:15:04.000 Stew, stop f***ing with bats. 0.99

00:15:08.000 That's okay, we'll bleep it. 0.98

00:15:10.000 Long week, getting ready for a long month.

00:15:11.000 Another story, hard seltzer brand White Claw have released three new flavors.

00:15:16.000 Lemon, watermelon, and tangerine. 0.97

00:15:19.000 Most excited about this news, drunk p***ies. 1.00

00:15:24.000 You don't like the White Claw? 0.99

00:15:25.000 I'm not a fan.

00:15:26.000 Really?

00:15:27.000 I'm all in on the White Claw.

00:15:29.000 Wow.

00:15:29.000 I don't care.

00:15:30.000 I never said I was a masculine guy.

00:15:33.000 I never even tried it.

00:15:34.000 That's fair.

00:15:34.000 It was going so well for you, Stu, right up until the last two segments.

00:15:37.000 White Claw.

00:15:37.000 Right up until the last two.

00:15:38.000 Really?

00:15:38.000 I think you're doing fine.

00:15:40.000 Really?

00:15:40.000 Yeah.

00:15:40.000 Don't take it from him.

00:15:42.000 He's the bad guy, and now he likes White Claw. 0.99

00:15:44.000 He's a drunk. 0.93

00:15:45.000 I can see that. 0.94

00:15:46.000 He's always drunk.

00:15:47.000 He's always drinking wine.

00:15:49.000 For some reason, if you're drunk on wine all the time, you're like, ooh, connoisseur.

00:15:53.000 Culture.

00:15:54.000 Sorry.

00:15:54.000 I don't have culture.

00:15:55.000 I don't have manliness.

00:15:56.000 I have none of those things.

00:15:57.000 I'm an essential worker, okay guys?

00:15:59.000 Are you essential?

00:16:00.000 I'm sorry.

00:16:00.000 My business is essential.

00:16:01.000 How did that work out in Schindler's List?

00:16:02.000 That was actually, no, that was a scene.

00:16:04.000 That was, by the way, this is, no, no, hold on a second.

00:16:08.000 We know, we know.

00:16:09.000 Let's keep going, guys.

00:16:10.000 We know we do film opens.

00:16:12.000 Johnny Boy, my Canadian friend, he said, hey, how about you parody this scene?

00:16:15.000 And it was, very essential workers.

00:16:16.000 I'm like, from Schindler's List?

00:16:18.000 What are you thinking?

00:16:19.000 Are you out of your mind?

00:16:22.000 And then we had, this happened this week, that, and then I love him dearly, even Brendan, but he said, hey, can my family come in to the studio to watch the show?

00:16:31.000 And I said, what?

00:16:32.000 They're, they're, they're nine states away.

00:16:35.000 He said, well, yeah, but they, you know, they planned a vacation.

00:16:37.000 I said, well, the tickets are refundable right now.

00:16:39.000 He said, no, they're driving.

00:16:43.000 Short of loading up the car to New York on September 12th, 2001, there couldn't be a worse time for travel.

00:16:51.000 Terrible idea.

00:16:52.000 They don't really have it there.

00:16:53.000 I'm like, I know they live in a rural area, but they're staying at Hacienda Courts and every Valero station and touching the gas pump.

00:16:59.000 Bless their heart.

00:17:00.000 No, so he's working from home.

00:17:04.000 I do want to hear from you guys if you think that 2020 has changed with the coronavirus.

00:17:08.000 I think this actually has cinched it for Donald Trump.

00:17:11.000 But before we get to that, finally, San Francisco, obviously you know that it's been completely shut down.

00:17:17.000 In response to the coronavirus pandemic, residents are being ordered complete shelter in place to stay in their homes.

00:17:22.000 It's one of the strictest protocols across the country.

00:17:26.000 San Franciscans, of course, responded with, but where will we s**t?

00:17:29.000 Now... try the corner!

00:17:34.000 The corner's just a byproduct of patriarchy, to be clear.

00:17:41.000 It really is.

00:17:42.000 Angles.

00:17:43.000 People don't talk about that enough.

00:17:44.000 They don't.

00:17:45.000 They don't.

00:17:47.000 Because of the quarantine, though, this is to San Francisco.

00:17:49.000 There's been a huge uptick in, you should like this, Court of Black Garrett. 0.98

00:17:51.000 We'll be doing a free mug club month.

00:17:52.000 Really?

00:17:53.000 Entering the promo code quarantine.

00:17:55.000 $30 off.

00:17:55.000 Everyone gets a student in military pricing.

00:17:58.000 Video games.

00:17:59.000 We'll be video game streaming.

00:18:00.000 They're much more popular now.

00:18:02.000 In San Francisco.

00:18:03.000 It's been a huge uptick.

00:18:04.000 Some of the titles, actually, might surprise you, which brings us to this week's 7 Plus 1!

00:18:13.000 You forgot Stefan in the chamber!

00:18:15.000 Just so you know, yeah, we are doing 7 Plus 1.

00:18:17.000 And Stu, if Glenn fires you, there is no home for you here.

00:18:21.000 OK.

00:18:22.000 That's very nice.

00:18:24.000 Consider me the tiger to your Fred Flintstone, putting you out of the house.

00:18:28.000 Oh, OK.

00:18:28.000 There's no way you're getting in.

00:18:29.000 From the intro, yeah.

00:18:31.000 But we're going to have you read to me.

00:18:32.000 So this is 7 plus 1 of the most popular video games in San Francisco amidst the coronavirus crisis.

00:18:40.000 So number 7 popular game in San Francisco right now is Call of Duty.

00:18:43.000 So that's, yeah, that makes sense.

00:18:46.000 Kids love that one.

00:18:47.000 It's a multiplayer game.

00:18:49.000 Stu, how about you take number six?

00:18:50.000 Number six, resident needles.

00:18:52.000 Yeah, that's a big one.

00:18:53.000 Resident needles in San Francisco.

00:18:55.000 It's pretty popular.

00:18:56.000 This actually is fun because it's an open world, but it's not without consequences.

00:19:00.000 Number five, grand theft, autoimmune deficiency.

00:19:03.000 Which makes...

00:19:04.000 Yeah.

00:19:05.000 Oh.

00:19:06.000 Geez.

00:19:07.000 It's just sad.

00:19:08.000 Yeah.

00:19:09.000 Uh...

00:19:11.000 Audio-wise, give us number four, because I don't want all the liability.

00:19:14.000 Number four, angry turds.

00:19:16.000 I see it.

00:19:17.000 Oh, yeah.

00:19:18.000 Yeah.

00:19:18.000 That didn't take much work.

00:19:19.000 Um...

00:19:20.000 No, it did not.

00:19:22.000 But look, no, you can see it's angry.

00:19:23.000 Look, it's on the Golden Gate Bridge.

00:19:24.000 Yeah. 0.98

00:19:25.000 There's a lot of work going into something so silly. 0.68

00:19:27.000 A lot of detail. 0.92

00:19:28.000 Not really.

00:19:28.000 That could have been time put into research.

00:19:30.000 Number three popular game in, again, coronavirus quarantine in San Francisco.

00:19:34.000 Number three, Mortal Kombat meat.

00:19:36.000 So that's, and by the way, Raiden was played by a white guy.

00:19:39.000 Yep, totally white.

00:19:40.000 It's true.

00:19:41.000 Seriously, anytime you put on the rice paddy hat...

00:19:44.000 The general rule is just make sure they're actually Asian. 0.96

00:19:47.000 Yeah.

00:19:48.000 At least.

00:19:48.000 They didn't get the memo.

00:19:49.000 No, no.

00:19:51.000 Number two, Gerald G. Morgan Jr., number two.

00:19:53.000 Final Fantasy XIX, the homosexual curfew hour. 1.00

00:19:56.000 Look at that!

00:19:57.000 They never stop with the Final Fantasies.

00:20:00.000 There are so many.

00:20:01.000 And so many of them really matter.

00:20:04.000 And the number one most popular video game in San Francisco right now amidst the corona quarantine, Metal Gear Solid Stool.

00:20:11.000 So yeah, Solid Snake. 0.90

00:20:14.000 He's gonna have a flame coming out of his butthole hiding behind bushes and buildings and try not to make sounds, but his butthole will be making all kinds of fiery sounds. 0.97

00:20:25.000 To be clear, He's not actually from the CDC. 0.98

00:20:29.000 I don't want you to fact check this.

00:20:31.000 Oh, and I forgot, the one in the chamber.

00:20:31.000 We're going to get fake news.

00:20:33.000 And the plus one, most popular video game title right now in San Francisco, Super Smash Brothers, which really is, yeah, just a placeholder.

00:20:40.000 So that concludes this week's 7 Plus 1.

00:20:46.000 You forgot the van in the chamber!

00:20:49.000 Always forget the one in the chamber.

00:20:51.000 And we will be reading some of your live chat next week.

00:20:54.000 9 p.m.

00:20:55.000 Central, 10 p.m.

00:20:56.000 Eastern, Monday morning, our first morning show.

00:20:58.000 So you can only do the live chat, though, at Blaze.

00:21:01.000 We're not doing it on YouTube because we don't want to give YouTube money.

00:21:05.000 9 a.m.

00:21:07.000 A.m., not p.m., a.m.

00:21:08.000 What did I say, p.m.?

00:21:09.000 You said p.m.

00:21:09.000 Well, we're doing p.m.

00:21:10.000 as well.

00:21:10.000 I'm doing so many shows!

00:21:11.000 Son of a gun!

00:21:12.000 So many shows! 0.61

00:21:13.000 I can't stop with the shows.

00:21:15.000 Gotcha.

00:21:15.000 There's so many shows.

00:21:17.000 Frankly.

00:21:18.000 The best shows.

00:21:19.000 Okay, people, they always say, I do too many shows.

00:21:21.000 I say no.

00:21:23.000 I can do more.

00:21:24.000 But they say you give so much.

00:21:26.000 And I do.

00:21:26.000 I do give so much.

00:21:30.000 What do you think, Stu, before we get into this?

00:21:32.000 Do you think this has helped Donald Trump or hurt Donald Trump?

00:21:34.000 Well, it's still yet to be seen, right?

00:21:36.000 If this turns into zombie apocalypse, it's probably not going to get elected.

00:21:40.000 Maybe nobody.

00:21:41.000 If he can come to the point where he looks competent through this, especially if this thing bounces back, It's going to be, he's going to have some smooth sailing out of it.

00:21:50.000 Yeah, I think it's going to go pretty well.

00:21:52.000 I think this actually is already a sensitive deal.

00:21:53.000 Let me kind of make some points as to why, and you guys can let me know where you think I'm wrong.

00:21:56.000 You can let me know, as you very often do.

00:21:59.000 The media's been trying to claim that he's been terrible at his job, okay?

00:22:02.000 But Donald Trump's overall approval rating, and by the way, this is where polls matter, not like when Bernie Sanders says, look at Venezuela, they prefer their healthcare.

00:22:10.000 They do in Cuba, but they die. 1.00

00:22:13.000 So they prefer it up until the moment where, you know, they die. 0.99

00:22:15.000 So that's, you know, and by the way, we'll be talking with Denogla who had an operation on his testicles. 0.99

00:22:21.000 Scrotum and testicles operation. 0.99

00:22:23.000 Unbagged his groceries. 0.99

00:22:25.000 They put him back.

00:22:28.000 One thing that I love about it, don't you love that right now stores have said don't use reusable bags because they transmit disease.

00:22:33.000 It's like, oh, for a sec, it's almost like that's why we had plastic bags and straws. 1.00

00:22:38.000 You moron. 1.00

00:22:39.000 I love how all that stuff just goes right out the window. 1.00

00:22:41.000 Seriously.

00:22:42.000 Who doesn't want a straw right now?

00:22:44.000 Weren't we not told that the whole environment was the biggest threat?

00:22:50.000 As soon as something else happens, they all abandon it.

00:22:53.000 But also, the same sort of Eddie Haskell's, it's still China. 0.73

00:22:57.000 When it comes to climate change, it's still China. 0.99

00:22:59.000 And now when it comes to viruses, it's still China. 0.99

00:23:02.000 Debt pattern, China.

00:23:04.000 A lot of it.

00:23:05.000 I mean, I don't want to vilify an entire nation of people, but China's a horrible place. 0.87

00:23:07.000 So, not the people, but the government.

00:23:10.000 Again, let's be really clear.

00:23:12.000 I hope that those people are liberated eventually from this government.

00:23:15.000 It's a shame to me that the media is carrying the water for the Chinese propagandist government.

00:23:19.000 You want to know who's not a fan of Jake Tapper?

00:23:22.000 All the Chinese who don't work for the government. 1.00

00:23:25.000 So this is where polls matter because Donald Trump, amidst a crisis, and this is kind of important because you see this quite a bit historically, it's a good indicator, 60% of Americans actually approve of his response to coronavirus.

00:23:35.000 His recent approval rating with Gallup, risen from 44% to 49%.

00:23:41.000 Who do Americans rate the worst right now, by the way?

00:23:44.000 The fake, fake lying news media. 0.74

00:23:47.000 That's what they rate as the worst aspect of American culture.

00:23:51.000 Second worst is late night hosts broadcasting from their bathroom without a lavalier mic.

00:23:54.000 That's up there.

00:23:55.000 Not expensive.

00:23:57.000 We get it.

00:23:58.000 It's raw.

00:23:58.000 We get it.

00:23:59.000 It's organic, Samantha Bee and Jimmy Kimmel, but can't you just take a portion of the 12 million salary and just get a rogue mic?

00:24:07.000 You were wearing a suit and a bathtub, so do that. 0.65

00:24:10.000 It's unreal to me.

00:24:11.000 And this is also, by the way, why they want to lean on YouTube, right?

00:24:15.000 Vox, NBCUniversal.

00:24:16.000 They realize they can't compete when they start putting this content.

00:24:18.000 No one wants to watch Seth Meyers in his hallway.

00:24:22.000 Not more than once at the very least.

00:24:23.000 Yeah, right.

00:24:24.000 I don't know.

00:24:25.000 God, I hope Lilly Singh gets quarantined. 1.00

00:24:26.000 Because Trump's approval rating for Democrats just overall is 13%, right?

00:24:30.000 Super, super low.

00:24:31.000 He got 29% approval from Democrats on his handling of coronavirus.

00:24:34.000 Wow.

00:24:34.000 Over twice the amount of Democrats approve of his handling than just generally like him.

00:24:39.000 That's huge.

00:24:39.000 That's a big number.

00:24:40.000 I wonder why that is.

00:24:41.000 How much do you think of this as just rallying around the president in a crisis?

00:24:47.000 I don't think that because the media has been attacking him non-stop.

00:24:51.000 So, I mean, you could say maybe people just are tired of seeing someone getting, you know, pummeled by the bullying media at some point and fighting back.

00:24:57.000 It would be different, for example, with Barack Obama and there was, you know, there was obviously the recession or right after 9-11.

00:25:03.000 These people didn't have such mistrust for the media, whereas at this point they're very open in their attacks on him.

00:25:08.000 I don't know.

00:25:09.000 I don't know.

00:25:10.000 It's a good question.

00:25:11.000 But I do have some other points that I think will hopefully build the case that hopefully that's not the case.

00:25:11.000 You guys let us know.

00:25:17.000 Here's a point.

00:25:18.000 OK, so travel bans.

00:25:19.000 To answer your question, Stu, I don't know that President Trump has done a whole lot differently than any other president would.

00:25:27.000 I think there's a limited amount of control that you have.

00:25:29.000 The CDC doesn't really have anything necessarily to do with Trump.

00:25:32.000 They sort of operate independently.

00:25:33.000 And we didn't have the right information from China.

00:25:34.000 The World Health Organization did not declare it a crisis or a pandemic until March 12th.

00:25:39.000 So to be clear, I know everyone's trying to score political points.

00:25:43.000 I can't say that Donald Trump has done everything right or differently than another president.

00:25:47.000 But Johnny Boy, who had the horrible idea of the Schindler's List parody, Had a very good point here. 0.62

00:25:53.000 I do know one thing that President Trump has specifically done differently than all other leaders, and that's his travel ban from China.

00:26:00.000 It was big.

00:26:01.000 Donald Trump banned it early.

00:26:02.000 They didn't do that elsewhere.

00:26:04.000 They didn't do it with the same vigor, you should say.

00:26:07.000 And we can compare that directly with his competitor in a general election, Joe Dementia Biden, who claimed that the travel ban was xenophobic.

00:26:16.000 So this is remarkable to me.

00:26:19.000 Even if everything else from President Trump were terrible, it was absolutely, let's say he handled everything as poorly as can be, he's still not as bad as Joe Biden.

00:26:27.000 It is a miracle.

00:26:29.000 They put up someone in the general, if I'm Donald Trump and I go into this general election, there's a debate with Joe Biden, right?

00:26:33.000 And he says, oh, it wasn't enough of a response.

00:26:35.000 I just coach Donald Trump, say, all right, let it fly.

00:26:37.000 Well, listen, I put the ban on travel from China.

00:26:40.000 You said it was racist.

00:26:41.000 So when would you have put travel restrictions on China, Joe?

00:26:44.000 And he won't be able to answer probably himself, you know, and forget where he is for a little bit.

00:26:47.000 Can you imagine he's back to back competitors so far are going to be Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, like the two

00:26:52.000 right weakest people to put up against anyone.

00:26:55.000 Yeah, well, especially though, on the coronavirus.

00:26:57.000 In other words, they he has no leg to stand on on what will be the hot button issue here.

00:27:02.000 Absolutely. If it were just some random recession or something that happened, they could try and attribute it to

00:27:06.000 policy. Right. Right.

00:27:07.000 But with this, it's clear as day.

00:27:09.000 Donald Trump did something proactive.

00:27:12.000 You accuse him of racism.

00:27:13.000 And by the way, Biden was just following lockstep with the media.

00:27:15.000 They claimed it was nonsensical, an emotional reaction.

00:27:18.000 This is from Vox, New York Times.

00:27:20.000 They also said that we shouldn't really worry about the coronavirus, that it was less than the flu.

00:27:23.000 But now they try to act like that's just a right-wing talking point.

00:27:26.000 We got it from you.

00:27:27.000 One of Italy's, wasn't it one of Italy's virologists?

00:27:31.000 He said, when responding to the outbreak, that the fear of the political fallout from enacting a travel ban made the pandemic much worse in Italy.

00:27:39.000 This is what he said.

00:27:40.000 Now, the American media was saying, no, no, no, don't listen to that guy who works in Italian government.

00:27:47.000 It has nothing to do with open borders.

00:27:48.000 And the entire EU was pissed, because Donald Trump said, we're handling this better than the EU.

00:27:48.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:27:52.000 We actually put a travel ban in before the EU.

00:27:54.000 And Italy's like, well, we put our travel ban in for four days earlier, and it didn't help us.

00:27:58.000 So now they're all pissed off about that.

00:27:59.000 It's like, actually, this works.

00:28:00.000 This does help stop.

00:28:01.000 It didn't help you, but it is helping everybody else.

00:28:04.000 Italy only put a travel ban in from China.

00:28:06.000 They didn't do it.

00:28:06.000 From China.

00:28:07.000 The rest of the borders were effectively open.

00:28:09.000 So we are at a point where political correctness could quite literally be killing people.

00:28:13.000 LGBTQAI and people died. 1.00

00:28:15.000 That's the point here.

00:28:17.000 Hands up, don't shoot.

00:28:18.000 I mean, no, this is an actual thing.

00:28:21.000 You don't ban travel from China where the virus originates, people will die.

00:28:26.000 And you go back to, like, our definition of political correctness is different than the original, right?

00:28:29.000 The original is from Marxist states where, and this is very specific, where the Chinese government, they decided the politically correct thing for doctors to do is deny that there was a virus.

00:28:39.000 So this is legitimately, this entire thing is actually an extension of political correctness.

00:28:39.000 Yeah.

00:28:44.000 Right.

00:28:44.000 Yeah.

00:28:45.000 And it's dangerous.

00:28:46.000 It's not without consequences.

00:28:47.000 People think it's, well, I'm being nice because I'm not offending people.

00:28:50.000 And we'll get to that in a second.

00:28:51.000 We talked about this too, going back to your point in the EU.

00:28:51.000 Yeah, Joe.

00:28:54.000 It's great that we have a defensible border right now.

00:28:56.000 It's great that we have a border that we can control to some degree.

00:28:58.000 The EU wishes they had that right now.

00:29:00.000 Yeah.

00:29:01.000 Because people can just come in and go wherever they want.

00:29:02.000 Like you said, a travel ban is only effective if it's everybody coming to your country from China, period. 0.97

00:29:07.000 And it's not the only thing.

00:29:08.000 There's been obviously a multifaceted approach from President Donald Trump, but this is one thing that you can say is singularly unique in comparison to whether it's Biden or Bernie, but it seems like the candidate will obviously be Biden unless, you know, they don't have enough smelling salts.

00:29:20.000 But the point is, I think that's a stark contrast.

00:29:25.000 And by the way, can we just say, Joe Biden is really unwell.

00:29:29.000 He is not doing well at all.

00:29:30.000 This week, he had a series of disastrous media appearances.

00:29:35.000 First, I think we have this one with a failed teleprompter on a live stream.

00:29:38.000 Watch.

00:29:38.000 It's sad.

00:29:40.000 Beef up the number of responders dealing with these crushing cases.

00:29:45.000 And in addition to that, we have to make sure that we are in a position that we are... Well, let me go to the second thing.

00:29:58.000 It's sad.

00:29:59.000 The President must use the Defense Production Act.

00:30:01.000 Yeah, there is no second thing.

00:30:03.000 Let me go to the second thing.

00:30:04.000 Oh, Joe, what's the second thing?

00:30:08.000 The third thing.

00:30:10.000 There are three more than one or two.

00:30:10.000 The three things.

00:30:12.000 What'd I stop?

00:30:14.000 I like the hand motion there.

00:30:16.000 It looks like he's checking someone for testicular cancer.

00:30:19.000 Very roughly.

00:30:19.000 And cough?

00:30:20.000 Cough! 0.97

00:30:21.000 What?

00:30:21.000 Huh?

00:30:22.000 What'd he say?

00:30:23.000 Huh?

00:30:24.000 What?

00:30:25.000 I'm fine. 1.00

00:30:26.000 What kind of a piece of shit do you have to be to keep putting him out there in that condition? 1.00

00:30:29.000 I know. 1.00

00:30:30.000 It's really, seriously.

00:30:31.000 I'm asking seriously.

00:30:32.000 It's not a punchline.

00:30:33.000 Someone needs to, like, you just need to have someone waving it off.

00:30:35.000 Like, stop!

00:30:36.000 Enough! 1.00

00:30:37.000 Wave off the fight! 0.99

00:30:38.000 Then after this he, what were you gonna say?

00:30:40.000 What?

00:30:42.000 I'm so confused. 1.00

00:30:44.000 Joe Biden makes me stupider, having watched him. 0.99

00:30:47.000 That's the virus we should be most concerned about is the Biden-itis. 0.99

00:30:52.000 It looks like, you know, in Rocky, I think it was Rocky 4, right?

00:30:55.000 Apollo Creed is in there fighting Ivan Drago.

00:30:57.000 And Rocky's there.

00:30:57.000 Oh, yeah.

00:30:58.000 He's got the towel.

00:30:59.000 He's going to throw in the towel and he doesn't throw it in.

00:31:01.000 It costs Apollo his life.

00:31:03.000 That's what his family needs to be there with a towel and throw the towel. 0.84

00:31:03.000 Right. 0.84

00:31:07.000 It's over for Joe.

00:31:08.000 And it's very fitting because Putin will In hot topics, we talked about Trump saying the government would reassess the recommended period for keeping businesses shut and people at home. 0.67

00:31:16.000 won't do the fist bump though because six feet we understand that so he then

00:31:19.000 went on The View and the responses they weren't they were not at all coherent.

00:31:23.000 In Hot Topics we talked about Trump saying the government would reassess the

00:31:28.000 recommended period for keeping businesses shut and people at home. Are

00:31:33.000 you at all concerned as Trump said that we cannot let the cure be worse than the

00:31:37.000 problem itself? We have to take care of the cure.

00:31:41.000 That will make the problem worse no matter what.

00:31:45.000 We have to take care of the cure.

00:31:47.000 No, in this, I don't want to be that guy of the gotcha.

00:31:49.000 In his defense, he didn't misspeak.

00:31:51.000 All Thursday, doesn't even start.

00:31:55.000 It's Friday, I'm in love.

00:31:58.000 See, I get it all confused.

00:32:00.000 I thought he was taking care of the Smiths. 0.94

00:32:02.000 They're almost interchangeable.

00:32:05.000 Perhaps Joy Division.

00:32:07.000 This is very sad.

00:32:10.000 Full month of it coming your way.

00:32:12.000 Yeah, it really is.

00:32:13.000 Anyway, yeah, I agree.

00:32:14.000 They need to throw in the towel. 0.91

00:32:15.000 So let's get back to coronavirus, because that's what we care about right now.

00:32:18.000 The Democrats obviously have been blocking, you know, the relief bill.

00:32:20.000 We've been talking about this stimulus bill.

00:32:22.000 They blocked the bill from the GOP early on with, I think, was it 1,400 pages, this bill?

00:32:27.000 Do we know how many pages it ended up?

00:32:29.000 It keeps changing by the day.

00:32:30.000 You have to pass it, then you can read it. 0.86

00:32:33.000 Their counter, I think, had 1,400 pages, and it contained all sorts of ridiculous crap that had nothing to do with the coronavirus.

00:32:40.000 If you haven't, there's $35 million in funding for the JFK Performing Arts Center, $90 million for an HIV program, $300 million for migration and refugee assistance, Green New Deal style requirements for carbon emissions.

00:32:40.000 I'm sure you've heard of this.

00:32:54.000 Listen, over 3.2 million Americans just filed for unemployment.

00:32:59.000 And the Democrats are demanding $300 million for illegal immigrants and refugees.

00:33:05.000 And the Democrats, you wonder why America, the heartland doesn't think that you have their best interest at heart?

00:33:10.000 Because a nutless monkey would be more effective at putting America first.

00:33:14.000 And one of the things in the bill here that just came out, Ted Cruz was talking about this I think yesterday, saying, you just raised unemployment benefits from around $11 an hour, which is not enough money for you to sit at home and just collect a paycheck, to $27-ish per hour.

00:33:28.000 That's what they raised it to, about $1,100, just over $1,000 a week.

00:33:30.000 You can make around $48,000 a year sitting and doing nothing.

00:33:35.000 Yeah.

00:33:35.000 That's crazy.

00:33:36.000 Amazing.

00:33:37.000 You're giving him terrible incentives here.

00:33:39.000 Oh, I know.

00:33:40.000 And you look at this, and this is just basically, today, 3.2 million unemployed.

00:33:44.000 It's like a trailer for the movie of a Bernie Sanders or Joe Biden president.

00:33:48.000 We're all seeing a preview of it today.

00:33:49.000 It's not fun.

00:33:50.000 Yeah, when people say, oh, this proves that we need a socialized health care program.

00:33:52.000 Really?

00:33:53.000 How'd the CDC do?

00:33:54.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:33:55.000 How did they work it out?

00:33:56.000 How did it go in Italy?

00:33:57.000 Where right now, if you're over 60, you don't get a ventilator, because they're just rationing.

00:34:00.000 They're like, well, listen, you're on your own.

00:34:02.000 In a capitalist country, we have other companies jump on board.

00:34:04.000 And why are we getting testing kits?

00:34:06.000 We're getting more testing kits because of private labs stepping up.

00:34:08.000 We talked about that with Dr. Chor.

00:34:09.000 We're getting more masks.

00:34:10.000 Actually, Origin, Jaco, they're going to be sending us some masks.

00:34:14.000 They're making masks right now.

00:34:16.000 3M, is it Hanes, Honeywell?

00:34:18.000 The private sector has stepped up, and they are the ones who are helping Americans. 0.99

00:34:22.000 Fixing the CDC's crap hole.

00:34:24.000 Yeah, because the CDC is the closest thing we have to a single-payer program here. 0.72

00:34:27.000 And South Korea, who's getting all the praise, they just embrace the free market faster.

00:34:32.000 Their government made a decision to go to the private market, and it worked.

00:34:35.000 They did that, and they also kind of doxed their citizens, so that wasn't a hassle.

00:34:39.000 That's a minor part of the story.

00:34:41.000 I mean, if you're willing to just have Apple hand over your geotagging and post it for public to avoid Steven, well, there you go.

00:34:48.000 And we can do the South Korea thing.

00:34:50.000 Also, if we're all, if we're just a monolith racially, because it's different, people respond to diseases a little bit differently, it's more predictable.

00:34:56.000 Not saying it because, oh Asians, saying it because it is not nearly as diverse as the United States, and it's tough to control a virus. 0.96

00:35:03.000 We have a different, all different kinds of ages.

00:35:05.000 We have all, we probably have more genders in South Korea, now I'm sure about that. 1.00

00:35:11.000 Come on! 0.61

00:35:11.000 They're still on two! 0.61

00:35:12.000 Does anyone here know how a pansexual, on a molecular biology level, how they respond to the coronavirus?

00:35:20.000 A pansexual on a pandemic. 0.98

00:35:21.000 I would pay a nickel to see that cellular symbiosis in a petri dish. 0.96

00:35:29.000 I trust Joe Biden's teleprompter more than I trust the DNC.

00:35:32.000 DNC, I'm looking out for the United States right now.

00:35:34.000 There are a lot of things that I trust more than the DNC, namely all of them.

00:35:38.000 Here's another thing.

00:35:38.000 This was a big deal and it may seem inconsequential.

00:35:41.000 But I think, to go back to your point, I think this is why Americans think that Donald Trump is doing a better job handling this, and they, if it were just in a vacuum, Donald Trump, oh, we approve a rallying around the leader, that wouldn't explain the distrust of the media.

00:35:53.000 That tells me there's a conflict.

00:35:55.000 That tells me that to most Americans, including Democrats, there's kind of a hero and a villain here.

00:36:01.000 And a big part of that was, of course, if you haven't been following, I don't know, you have the Chinese virus controversy.

00:36:06.000 We continue our relentless effort to defeat The Chinese virus.

00:36:10.000 Why do you keep using this?

00:36:12.000 A lot of people say it's racist.

00:36:14.000 It's not racist at all.

00:36:15.000 Not at all.

00:36:16.000 It comes from China.

00:36:18.000 It comes from China.

00:36:18.000 That's why.

00:36:19.000 I want to be accurate.

00:36:21.000 As you know, China tried to say at one point, maybe they stopped now, that it was caused by American soldiers.

00:36:29.000 That can't happen.

00:36:30.000 It's not going to happen.

00:36:31.000 Not as long as I'm president.

00:36:33.000 It comes from China.

00:36:34.000 Seeing some important developments in our war against the Chinese virus.

00:36:42.000 I love the pausing.

00:36:43.000 China.

00:36:45.000 C-H-I-N-A. 1.00

00:36:46.000 China.

00:36:47.000 China.

00:36:48.000 If you're going to fix a problem, you need to speak truth.

00:36:50.000 You can't be obfuscated behind all this political correctness.

00:36:55.000 You have to speak truth.

00:36:57.000 And what it is, it came from China.

00:36:58.000 That's where it originates from.

00:37:00.000 Why is Trump saying Chinese virus valuable?

00:37:02.000 It's not just because it offends all the right people.

00:37:05.000 For the same reason that instituting a travel ban from China was valuable. 1.00

00:37:09.000 For the same reason that Trump's brass pendulous sack in comparison to Biden's shriveled, demented Raisinets is valuable.

00:37:16.000 Trump, he's not allowing political correctness to dictate policy best for Americans.

00:37:22.000 Also, I'll tell you why Chinese virus is important. 1.00

00:37:25.000 And you see this a lot with all of these, and you see it even in the Christian community.

00:37:28.000 And the virtue signaling community is like, we should be nice.

00:37:30.000 No, no.

00:37:30.000 You know why Chinese virus is important?

00:37:32.000 Because a communist regime who tried to blame this virus on our American troops doesn't get to rewrite history.

00:37:39.000 By the way, sign up for Mug Club this month.

00:37:42.000 The promo code is quarantine.

00:37:43.000 We're giving away everything plus three morning shows.

00:37:54.000 And, uh, yeah.

00:37:55.000 Also, Crowder Bits, subscribe.

00:37:56.000 And, uh, hey, look, Stu's drinking from his mug.

00:37:58.000 Quick, go to him.

00:37:59.000 See, he can't talk.

00:38:00.000 Aww, he turned it around.

00:38:01.000 That's embarrassing.

00:38:03.000 To go back to the point of the media, this is something that's really important to me.

00:38:06.000 I don't know how more clearly we could see the media overreach right now.

00:38:12.000 When they start blaming Donald Trump for people eating Koi pond cleaner, When I saw the story, I was like, no, they're not going to jump on this.

00:38:20.000 There's no way that they lack the self-awareness to blame Donald Trump for simpletons, for mongoloids, drinking Koi pond cleaner. 1.00

00:38:29.000 And then they do!

00:38:31.000 I love it!

00:38:31.000 It shows who they are.

00:38:32.000 We've had a hard time getting people to sometimes understand on the left

00:38:36.000 that, hey, look, the media is really biased.

00:38:38.000 Like, you're living in that bubble, apparently.

00:38:39.000 This is showing very clearly, like, we're not making this up.

00:38:42.000 We're not just saying that Trump's always right.

00:38:44.000 He's not.

00:38:45.000 When he's wrong, we have to call him out, right?

00:38:46.000 We have to hold him to account.

00:38:47.000 But look what they're doing.

00:38:49.000 Some lady murdered her husband, essentially. 0.96

00:38:51.000 And some ploy to like, just, oh, we thought I had chloroquilator, or whatever it was.

00:38:56.000 And they covered it as chloroquine, whatever.

00:38:58.000 Chlorophyll.

00:38:59.000 What are you, what, calazepam?

00:39:00.000 Is that wine bottle?

00:39:01.000 Did you recork that?

00:39:02.000 I know you have that because you're doing my best to...

00:39:04.000 Let me just give you a rapid-fire recap as to all of the dishonesties here.

00:39:07.000 No, I was itching my head.

00:39:08.000 Oh, you were itching your head.

00:39:09.000 Okay.

00:39:10.000 You can't move.

00:39:11.000 It's a nice head.

00:39:12.000 Yeah, let me just give you a rapid fire recap as to all of their, all of the dishonesties

00:39:14.000 here.

00:39:15.000 So something you probably heard, Trump disbanded the pandemic, the pandemic unit there at the

00:39:19.000 CDC, was it CDC or the White House?

00:39:21.000 I don't know.

00:39:22.000 I was going to say NHS.

00:39:23.000 Yeah.

00:39:24.000 Actually, he just condensed it with other units so that the expertise could be pulled

00:39:26.000 It was actually a decision to make government more effective and efficient, not less.

00:39:30.000 How dare he?

00:39:30.000 They tried to say that Trump cut CDC funding, reducing the outreach from 49 countries to 10, including cutting their work in China.

00:39:37.000 The truth is, it wasn't a direct cut.

00:39:38.000 It was a depletion of previously allocated funds, and the CDC got that money from elsewhere, so it's a wash.

00:39:42.000 Who cares?

00:39:43.000 And the media tried to say that Trump, of course, called the coronavirus a hoax.

00:39:46.000 No, what he said with the Democrats pinning the blame on his administration was a hoax.

00:39:50.000 And, of course, don't forget the fish tank cleaner, but we all understand that one. 1.00

00:39:53.000 That one's really stupid. 0.98

00:39:54.000 It's fun to address, but I don't want to go over it. 0.99

00:39:56.000 Here's the deal.

00:39:57.000 After years, years of the anti-Trump, the Russian collusion, the Ukaine's quid pro quo, The general public, how can they trust the media at all?

00:40:06.000 If you've never heard them say one good thing about President Trump, and now they're saying that he's handling the outbreak poorly, when in fact it was the New York Times, the media, who downplayed it. 0.97

00:40:14.000 Yeah, but you said there were prostitutes peeing on the Formica! 1.00

00:40:20.000 Everything that you've said is incorrect! 0.92

00:40:22.000 Why would they trust you now?

00:40:24.000 What do you think?

00:40:25.000 Do you think it's rallying behind Trump?

00:40:27.000 I do think that.

00:40:27.000 I think there's a good case here.

00:40:29.000 And you see this occasionally from media members when they actually will acknowledge something.

00:40:33.000 The Daily, that New York Times podcast, which is basically 30 minutes of them destroying Trump every day in their minds.

00:40:38.000 No, I don't listen to it.

00:40:39.000 Not with my compromised immune system.

00:40:41.000 That's true.

00:40:42.000 Be safe.

00:40:43.000 I'm susceptible to ear AIDS.

00:40:46.000 They had Maggie Haberman on, who was kind of flipped and flopped. 1.00

00:40:49.000 Jake Gyllenhaal's ugly sister? 0.53

00:40:50.000 Yes, exactly. 0.89

00:40:52.000 Every time she shows up on the big screen, I make an audible...

00:40:58.000 I think that's everybody.

00:40:58.000 Sorry, I interrupted.

00:40:59.000 So she said, she admitted, she said, you know what, early on in this situation, Trump banned flights from China, he was called racist, he was called xenophobic, and it turned out that it was a good move, and it was a big move at the time.

00:41:12.000 Now, they wrap that in 30 minutes of criticism, but at least if they will acknowledge basic truths, it'll at least give us a chance to understand and listen to the criticism.

00:41:23.000 Right.

00:41:23.000 They're so unwilling, because they're so obsessed with this guy, that they normally won't even give him a point to his favor, no matter what happens.

00:41:29.000 Right.

00:41:30.000 Yeah.

00:41:30.000 I think it's a real problem.

00:41:31.000 By the way, this is something, too.

00:41:33.000 They complained about the Republican bill.

00:41:34.000 We've heard about this.

00:41:35.000 Go back and forth all week.

00:41:36.000 We'll talk about it more next week, like the morning show.

00:41:38.000 We'll be watching CNN Live, fact-checking.

00:41:39.000 So it'll be a little different guest.

00:41:41.000 It'll be more like a podcast, radio show, less late-nighty, I guess.

00:41:45.000 So we'll be able to talk more in depth about the bill.

00:41:48.000 But initially, The left's complained that the Republican bill would allow hospitals, this was a big thing, that they would allow elective procedures to be put on hold to make room for corona patients.

00:41:57.000 That included abortions, right?

00:41:59.000 So, here's the deal.

00:42:01.000 Both sides have accused the other side of playing politics with this bill.

00:42:04.000 You're trying to fit this in, and you're trying to earmark this.

00:42:06.000 Okay, alright, and let's assume that that is true, because it is true.

00:42:09.000 Both sides are trying to play a little bit of political football, right? 0.99

00:42:12.000 Right now they're trying to shoehorn their crap in. 0.99

00:42:14.000 Alright, let's assume all of that is true. 0.95

00:42:17.000 What would be more relevant to a bill exclusively designed to curb the coronavirus and hopefully its economic ripple effect and devastation?

00:42:25.000 Helping hospitals alleviate their workload by holding all non-essential procedures like abortions, putting it on hold, or as the Democrats tried to shove into their bill, diversity quotas for corporate boards.

00:42:37.000 Getting hospitals masks, respirators, or making sure that there's a newbie in on retainer as an advisor at Dell.

00:42:45.000 And I think we do have to go to Denaga here.

00:42:47.000 This is something that's really important to you.

00:42:48.000 Some people are trying to make this case for socialism.

00:42:50.000 I think if you actually observe this objectively, you have to take this as a case against centralized government, because the private sector has stepped up and tried to fix a quagmire that was created by government, regardless of who's in office.

00:43:01.000 But it also shows us that, you know what?

00:43:02.000 There is a finite amount of resources with government.

00:43:05.000 It's ironic to me that the left, they think, well, this person has more, and so I want to take it.

00:43:09.000 They don't understand that capitalism for enterprise is not a zero sum game.

00:43:12.000 It's not just a piece of the pie.

00:43:13.000 You can bake more pies.

00:43:14.000 You know what is a fixed pie?

00:43:15.000 Government.

00:43:16.000 There's only so much money they can take, especially if everybody is unemployed for indefinitely, right?

00:43:21.000 There's a limited amount of resources.

00:43:23.000 So let's take into account the idea that the government, they've had this Russia hoax investigation going on.

00:43:29.000 How many tens of millions, when you add that up and hundreds of millions, I don't know, billions, I don't have the numbers in front of me, the impeachment sham going on.

00:43:36.000 And the CDC, how about the CDC?

00:43:37.000 Instead of researching gender pronouns and gun control statistics, you do your job! 0.93

00:43:42.000 That way, people won't take a steaming crap on you as an emblem of systematic corruption and bureaucracy in government looking to the private sector for help.

00:43:53.000 There's a fixed amount of resources in the government. 0.86

00:43:55.000 Seems like maybe we should be a little more prudent in where we use our resources so that we're not caught flat-footed with our pants down again.

00:44:02.000 All right, this guy, the Irish guy, Danagla?

00:44:05.000 Danagla?

00:44:06.000 Danada.

00:44:07.000 Don't mention it.

00:44:07.000 That's Spanish.

00:44:08.000 It's De Nada.

00:44:09.000 In the early morning freshness of Colombia, there's nothing more delicious than a cup

00:46:29.000 I'm very glad to have him on.

00:46:30.000 And he's moved heaven and earth.

00:46:32.000 He is.

00:46:32.000 To be on the show.

00:46:33.000 It's true. 0.99

00:46:33.000 Because those are the names of his right and left testicle. 0.99

00:46:37.000 Now, people will think that's not just being dirty for the sake of it. 0.97

00:46:39.000 He actually had a procedure, but we'll talk about that's not the lead.

00:46:42.000 The lead is actually, he's one of the most popular gamers on all of the YouTube.

00:46:47.000 The YouTube.

00:46:47.000 As Joe Biden refers to it.

00:46:48.000 The Tubes.

00:46:49.000 Or also, what?

00:46:51.000 And he doesn't want to give me his full name because he thinks I'll mispronounce it.

00:46:55.000 So you can search just De Nogla on YouTube, but I'm going to try it anyway.

00:46:59.000 Mr. Deity De Nogla.

00:47:02.000 Was that even close?

00:47:02.000 Thank you for being on the show.

00:47:03.000 Oh God.

00:47:04.000 Okay.

00:47:04.000 All right.

00:47:07.000 Also, by the way, he also was from an earlier Guy Ritchie film, just in case you didn't know.

00:47:13.000 You may speak to confirm.

00:47:14.000 Lockstock, yeah.

00:47:15.000 Wait, Guy Ritchie?

00:47:16.000 What?

00:47:17.000 You sound like a character from Snatch was what I was getting at.

00:47:19.000 Oh! 0.60

00:47:20.000 He has references.

00:47:21.000 Right, right.

00:47:21.000 A good movie.

00:47:22.000 Good movie.

00:47:23.000 It is a good movie.

00:47:24.000 I love that film.

00:47:25.000 So how do I say it?

00:47:26.000 It's Gaelic, right?

00:47:27.000 Yeah, Dahi de Nogla. 0.92

00:47:29.000 Oh, wow.

00:47:30.000 So this is why I didn't say it before.

00:47:31.000 I was like, was it Daithi?

00:47:32.000 Is it Daithi? 0.98

00:47:33.000 You knew I wasn't even close. 1.00

00:47:34.000 Just wanted to make you look stupid. 1.00

00:47:35.000 You just wanted me to embarrass myself. 1.00

00:47:37.000 No, no, I told you not to say the first part.

00:47:40.000 The second part's okay.

00:47:42.000 Noglins, that's all right, you know.

00:47:43.000 Yeah, but still, you heard me say diathean. 1.00

00:47:45.000 You could have said don't say it because you'll sound like an idiot, but instead you reverse psychologied me because you know I'm an idiot. 1.00

00:47:51.000 That's a good job. 1.00

00:47:52.000 I don't think that's... If you want to look into it like that, sure.

00:47:54.000 Okay.

00:47:55.000 I will.

00:47:57.000 Well, good, so listen, so right now, if I'm not mistaken, and people, again, you can follow him, just type in Denagla, he's on Twitter, he's on YouTube, does a lot of video gaming, which we'll talk about more on the web extended, because mug club quarantine, this whole month we'll be doing some live video game streaming.

00:48:10.000 You're stateside right now, correct?

00:48:12.000 Yeah, I'm in LA.

00:48:13.000 Okay, and so, wow, you're already so familiar with it that you use the abbreviations.

00:48:18.000 What brings you to Los Angeles, and are you stranded?

00:48:22.000 Can you not get home now?

00:48:25.000 Well, I wasn't planning to go home, so I'm fine.

00:48:28.000 I'm fine being here.

00:48:29.000 Okay.

00:48:29.000 But no, I've been traveling back and forth from Ireland to LA.

00:48:33.000 I live in Ireland and I travel to LA frequently.

00:48:36.000 Okay.

00:48:36.000 And I've been doing that for about a few years now.

00:48:38.000 A few years.

00:48:39.000 Now, what are you doing in Los Angeles?

00:48:42.000 Because you do the gaming thing.

00:48:43.000 It seems like you do that from anywhere.

00:48:44.000 Yeah, I do the same thing.

00:48:45.000 I do the same thing, but I might meet more people that are within the industry, do deals.

00:48:50.000 And stuff, network, yadda yadda, all that.

00:48:53.000 Right.

00:48:53.000 All that boring business jazz.

00:48:54.000 Hopefully when you do the deals you don't say it that way, like, I thought we'd do a deal, yadda yadda, you know, stuff, you know.

00:49:03.000 That's how it works though.

00:49:04.000 So how long are you planning on staying here?

00:49:06.000 You've been on the show before but it's been a long time.

00:49:09.000 Yeah, it was like two years I was on the show or something like that.

00:49:12.000 Yeah.

00:49:12.000 And I was in Ireland at the time.

00:49:15.000 Now, I hope to go back to Ireland, I don't know, within two months.

00:49:18.000 Okay.

00:49:19.000 And that's seeming, it may be likely, but right now, I mean, it's got to be... It's a coin flip.

00:49:25.000 Yes, exactly!

00:49:26.000 It is a coin flip.

00:49:28.000 Well, actually, I think it was the Irish authorities, for people who don't know, they tracked right the first case of the coronavirus, WuFlu, from a man who was traveling, was it Northern Italy?

00:49:36.000 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:49:38.000 Yes.

00:49:39.000 And he came into Dublin and then he went up to Northern Ireland and then he left again or something like that and he was the first person in Ireland to go.

00:49:45.000 Yes.

00:49:45.000 And then I read somewhere in the Irish press that they were saying Donald Trump is blaming the EU for needing to add Ireland to the US travel ban, which doesn't seem... Have you been following this?

00:49:56.000 I haven't followed that specific path, but I've just, I've seen stuff in news and social media and whatnot, but I wouldn't consider myself an expert.

00:50:05.000 No, well, none of us are experts.

00:50:06.000 We're not doctors or microbiologists.

00:50:09.000 You play video games and I tell **** jokes.

00:50:12.000 But you still have family, of course, in Ireland, I would imagine.

00:50:15.000 Yeah, I have my two dogs there as well, but they're taken care of.

00:50:19.000 They're okay.

00:50:19.000 Well, they're not carriers, so that's good.

00:50:22.000 No, but dogs can get it, apparently. 0.93

00:50:24.000 Really?

00:50:25.000 Yeah, yeah, apparently your dog died from coronavirus.

00:50:28.000 Oh my gosh.

00:50:29.000 Pretty sad.

00:50:29.000 I don't know why I'm laughing.

00:50:30.000 That sounds like a BuzzFeed article.

00:50:31.000 Now PETA will care. 1.00

00:50:32.000 I don't believe it.

00:50:34.000 Oh, they will.

00:50:35.000 Yeah.

00:50:35.000 How would you say they've been reacting there in Ireland versus stateside?

00:50:38.000 Have you been in communication with your family?

00:50:40.000 Is there a big difference?

00:50:41.000 Yeah, no, I message them.

00:50:44.000 I think it's about the same.

00:50:45.000 My mother bought me a giant fridge and stuffed it full of food.

00:50:49.000 Right.

00:50:49.000 And freezer, just stuffed it full of food pretty early on.

00:50:53.000 But I actually flew out to America like first week of March and then it was pretty much like two weeks later, three weeks later, you couldn't fly us.

00:51:01.000 Right.

00:51:02.000 It was four weeks after not four weeks, but yeah, about six weeks, four weeks after

00:51:08.000 the surgery.

00:51:08.000 So I got really lucky with how like everything panned out.

00:51:12.000 Right. Get to L.A.

00:51:14.000 because I have my I have my girlfriend here.

00:51:17.000 So, you know, I don't want to be across the country for like an indefinite period of time.

00:51:24.000 Right, right.

00:51:25.000 Plus, you know, you got to put a ring on it if you want that visa.

00:51:27.000 Yeah, yeah, exactly.

00:51:30.000 I already have a visa.

00:51:31.000 I tell her I don't need you for the visa. 0.99

00:51:34.000 It's not like 90 Day Fiancé and I'm just with you for the green card.

00:51:37.000 Right, right.

00:51:38.000 I actually already have a visa to be here.

00:51:41.000 Yeah.

00:51:42.000 So you reverse psychologied her as well.

00:51:45.000 Yeah, I'm pretty good at psychology.

00:51:47.000 He's pretty good.

00:51:48.000 It's the Irish Forte.

00:51:52.000 I guess sort of, because some people stateside, too, have been getting this wrong.

00:51:54.000 And I spent some time in Ireland.

00:51:55.000 I don't, frankly, I don't have much interest in going elsewhere in Europe at this point, because I've had official complaints with Twitter.

00:52:01.000 What is it?

00:52:02.000 China? 0.73

00:52:03.000 Pakistan? 0.75

00:52:04.000 Was it somewhere in the U.K.

00:52:07.000 for drawing Muhammad?

00:52:09.000 For people here who don't necessarily understand, because obviously Italy, we've talked about this, they didn't close their borders for a long time.

00:52:15.000 Sometimes people don't realize that the United States, you know, it's bigger than a lot of areas when we're talking about like the UK, right?

00:52:20.000 Or even if you include the UK, I mean, I'm trying to think of all even surrounding countries.

00:52:23.000 The United States alone is bigger.

00:52:25.000 And so we don't think of how important those borders kind of are when they are different countries in a continent like Europe.

00:52:32.000 Is this something that you think might, for example, have ramifications for Brexit now because people over there understand that they need to be able to kind of seal things up in a pandemic?

00:52:43.000 Personally, I think, you know, humans are fairly slow to change.

00:52:49.000 So I don't think, I think it'll have very little impact politically in terms of like how people perceive borders.

00:52:56.000 They'll probably just boil it down to something else.

00:53:00.000 Right.

00:53:00.000 You know what I mean?

00:53:01.000 They'll find something else that makes them not think of a change that's necessary for future.

00:53:07.000 Right.

00:53:07.000 You know, like ideally, Because it's so long getting through.

00:53:13.000 Borders anyway, these days.

00:53:15.000 Right.

00:53:17.000 In Europe.

00:53:17.000 Lines and whatnot.

00:53:18.000 How long, so what is it like?

00:53:20.000 I've only done, you know, I've done customs going obviously to Ireland, but I, having been raised in Canada, I would go through the Canadian-United States borders, and sometimes it could be kind of lengthy.

00:53:29.000 One time I got in trouble because I bought a pair of shorts from Old Navy, American flag shorts, and I didn't claim it, and I was put in a back room for a while.

00:53:36.000 But what is it like in Europe going through borders right now?

00:53:41.000 Um, it's fairly simple.

00:53:42.000 It's fairly simple.

00:53:43.000 It's a bit awkward going to a country that, like, they don't really speak your language or anything like that, so... Right.

00:53:51.000 So it's when you're explaining why you're there, but usually it's just I'm on a holiday and they're like, yeah, come on in.

00:53:56.000 Wow, that doesn't sound like a crack security squad.

00:54:01.000 No, no, but you do have to line up and talk to somebody and stuff like that.

00:54:06.000 But the ones that I would say are tougher are like American immigration. 0.91

00:54:11.000 Because you have to, like, they have one in Shannon, and then they have one, if you don't fly from Shannon to the U.S., you have to meet the immigration in the U.S.

00:54:20.000 Yeah. 0.97

00:54:20.000 And, yeah, they can be, some of them can be real hard asses. 0.97

00:54:25.000 And, like, if they don't understand what you're saying, and I have to explain, like, my YouTube job. 0.91

00:54:30.000 Yeah.

00:54:30.000 Like, they're like... Plus, with your accent.

00:54:33.000 What are you talking about?

00:54:34.000 With your accent, Americans assume you're drunk.

00:54:36.000 Like, I got an alcoholic in PSA Line 4.

00:54:41.000 Well, I'd be waking up tired as well going off to 6 a.m.

00:54:44.000 flights, so yeah, you're probably right.

00:54:46.000 Yeah.

00:54:47.000 But yeah, once I got my visa, they pretty much got very relaxed about it, because this visa was pretty much like, this guy's safe, everything like that.

00:54:58.000 But before the visa, when I was traveling on an ESTA, they were really hard-ass about it, and sometimes I was standing there like, Might be going home here.

00:55:06.000 Right.

00:55:08.000 That used to happen with my mom a lot. 0.99

00:55:09.000 You know, my mom always used to make this joke. 1.00

00:55:10.000 She's French-Canadian.

00:55:11.000 So we would go through the border just north of Plattsburgh in a place called Champlain.

00:55:15.000 People out there, if you know from upstate New York, you know what I'm talking about, let me know.

00:55:18.000 There's nothing there.

00:55:19.000 That's how cool the United States was to Canadians.

00:55:22.000 I don't know if you felt the same when you came to the States, but we would go to the States for like Taco Bell and Gap and things like that.

00:55:29.000 And we would always go through to Plattsburgh and my mom would get nervous. 0.82

00:55:33.000 And my mom, when my mom has a tendency, she's French-Canadian, when she gets nervous, to make other people nervous. 0.97

00:55:37.000 Oh yeah, that's moms. 0.97

00:55:39.000 That's just mom nervous. 0.98

00:55:40.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:55:41.000 I've met other moms.

00:55:42.000 They're amateurs.

00:55:43.000 With my mom, my dad would go through, they'd say, okay, and citizens, and my dad would say, all three American citizens and one alien. 0.81

00:55:51.000 And my mom would go, beep, beep, and hold up her card like this. 0.99

00:55:55.000 And they'd say, I don't like you at all.

00:55:59.000 And the French-Canadian accent sounds like a cartoon character to a lot of people.

00:56:03.000 It doesn't sound like a real accent.

00:56:05.000 So she was constantly questioned.

00:56:07.000 Now, here's one thing I do want to ask you, because you had surgery, then you were traveling.

00:56:10.000 A lot of people don't know this because they weren't necessarily traveling, certainly not internationally.

00:56:15.000 It wasn't declared a pandemic, I think, until March 12th.

00:56:18.000 So you traveled before that.

00:56:20.000 Ten days before that.

00:56:22.000 No, eight days before.

00:56:23.000 And were you really scared?

00:56:24.000 Because I remember I traveled not long before it either, and it really wasn't even in the air.

00:56:28.000 People act like we all knew.

00:56:30.000 We certainly didn't when I was traveling domestically.

00:56:32.000 Were you afraid, or was it just kind of off the radar?

00:56:35.000 Well, I was definitely more cautious than normal.

00:56:41.000 So, you know, I brought hand sanitizer, wipes.

00:56:45.000 Even then, they were pretty much sold out in Ireland back Back early March.

00:56:49.000 Oh, wow.

00:56:50.000 So, yeah, my mother stocked up on that as well.

00:56:55.000 The motors.

00:56:56.000 Yeah.

00:56:58.000 Yeah.

00:56:58.000 So and thankfully, in my second flight, I was on the first flight.

00:57:03.000 I just I was a seat away from someone else.

00:57:07.000 And so I was good.

00:57:08.000 And then my second flight, my long flight, I was in the back right corner.

00:57:13.000 And no, I couldn't even see anyone.

00:57:16.000 From where I was sitting, and so basically, yeah, I was never really near anyone.

00:57:22.000 Right.

00:57:23.000 And so I think that made it easier on my mind.

00:57:26.000 Yeah.

00:57:27.000 There was no one coughing right next to me, basically.

00:57:29.000 Right.

00:57:29.000 Well, I imagine it made it easier on your mind, which brings me to my next point.

00:57:33.000 How are your balls? 0.99

00:57:34.000 So for people who don't know, You had a recent surgery, to quote you in your video, you said they... I hope I'm not blowing the lid off, because you did speak about it publicly on YouTube. 0.99

00:57:42.000 Yeah, no, no, go ahead.

00:57:43.000 They unbagged your groceries, you said.

00:57:45.000 Oh, yeah, that's a good way of putting it.

00:57:48.000 That's what you said, I think, in your video.

00:57:49.000 I know, I know, I'm just complimenting myself.

00:57:51.000 Okay, thank you very much.

00:57:55.000 There you go.

00:57:55.000 What was the procedure, exactly?

00:57:58.000 So, it was a hydrosuit repair.

00:58:02.000 It's fairly rare, like, One of you guys could have it, and you wouldn't even know it.

00:58:06.000 What?

00:58:07.000 What?

00:58:08.000 Huh?

00:58:08.000 Not yet, anyway.

00:58:09.000 We're concerned with other health issues right now.

00:58:10.000 I'm just learning to wash my hands properly.

00:58:12.000 I have to sing Happy Birthday twice. 0.99

00:58:14.000 I have to start checking my balls. 1.00

00:58:17.000 Wash your hands and wash your balls. 1.00

00:58:18.000 Yeah, but I don't sing Happy Birthday when I wash my balls. 1.00

00:58:22.000 I sing Call on Me from Chicago, the techno remix, because it seems appropriate. 0.96

00:58:26.000 Extended.

00:58:27.000 I don't want to imagine that, so we're going to move on here.

00:58:32.000 Yeah, you already are, so I've served my purpose.

00:58:37.000 But yeah, it's hard to see repair.

00:58:39.000 Basically, there's like this A little kind of tube that goes down into your testes, and then around that tube there's like this skin thing, and above that there's like, you know, your grind.

00:58:52.000 I'm imagining it now, the grafts, you know?

00:58:55.000 And then basically imagine like something like, just holes, something hole opened up.

00:59:00.000 Don't know how, they don't even know how it happens.

00:59:02.000 They think it's inflammation, trauma.

00:59:04.000 They don't actually know.

00:59:06.000 And then imagine like a small drip of liquid just coming down through that.

00:59:10.000 Like, several years.

00:59:13.000 For me, it's weird having balls that are normal sized, because I don't remember when they were normal. 0.95

00:59:21.000 So you were just bragging to everyone, like, I've got the biggest balls you've ever seen!

00:59:24.000 And they're like, yeah, you might want to get that checked out. 0.99

00:59:26.000 I can't say that anymore now, I've got normal balls.

00:59:31.000 Apparently they were normal like five years ago because one time when I was going up the stairs you have like boxers that are you know a bit showy on the sides. 0.88

00:59:40.000 I was going up the stairs and my brother was saying goodnight to me or something like that and he looked up and saw my balls and he said he said he remembers that forever. 0.65

00:59:48.000 He told me they were normal then. 0.99

00:59:52.000 You got a nice pair of normal balls there. 0.95

00:59:55.000 It's about five years of fluid building up and it was about the size of a, it was a pair on the left side. 0.96

01:00:01.000 The right one was fine.

01:00:02.000 It was just shoved out. 0.94

01:00:04.000 It was like, if you're sitting next to a fat person in a cinema.

01:00:09.000 But the left side... Wait, in this scenario, are your balls the fat person? 1.00

01:00:13.000 No, yes, my left head was the fat person, and the right one was a normal person. 1.00

01:00:18.000 Okay, alright.

01:00:19.000 So the left ball is Kevin Smith, and the right ball is whoever is unfortunate enough to sit next to Kevin Smith.

01:00:24.000 I'm trapped.

01:00:26.000 And yeah, so the left one was about the size of a pear, and then I was like, okay.

01:00:31.000 When I went back down, I got checked out and stuff like that.

01:00:34.000 Then they put some fluid on it, did an ultrasound, and they're like, yeah, that's a hydroseal.

01:00:39.000 Check me in for surgery.

01:00:40.000 I got actually really quick.

01:00:43.000 I paid for private.

01:00:44.000 I paid out of cash.

01:00:45.000 Oh, you didn't go with the universal health care there in Ireland?

01:00:48.000 No, no.

01:00:49.000 My dad has been on a waiting list, I think for about two years for some surgery or something like that. 0.99

01:00:55.000 For his balls too? 0.99

01:00:56.000 Are his balls okay? 1.00

01:00:57.000 Or your dad's balls are okay? 1.00

01:00:58.000 I haven't seen them, don't know. 0.99

01:01:01.000 It's something else with him.

01:01:02.000 Okay.

01:01:03.000 It's like a reoccurring, I think it might be ulcers or whatever, but, or kidney stones or something like that.

01:01:09.000 Two years for kidney stones?

01:01:11.000 Because my mom in Canada was a year in, I think it was a year and three months, or it might've been 14 months and some change for an MRI when she ruptured a disc in her lower back.

01:01:20.000 And Americans can't believe that when I say it, but it sounds like it's pretty comparable in Ireland for a lot of these things.

01:01:25.000 Well, I think it's two years because I remember being at the kitchen table with him and I was like, hey, let me, let me pay for your, uh, you know, your, your operation.

01:01:35.000 You can get it done probably in a few weeks or something like that.

01:01:37.000 Just pay it through private.

01:01:38.000 Yeah.

01:01:38.000 And he's just, he's just like, no, like if I, it's fine.

01:01:43.000 You know?

01:01:43.000 I thought there'd be more justification there.

01:01:47.000 No, he's like, I pay my taxes, and they said they're going to do this, so I'm going to make them do it.

01:01:52.000 Right.

01:01:53.000 So he's kind of like, they work for me mentality.

01:01:56.000 In two years.

01:01:58.000 They're going to hear from me in two years.

01:02:01.000 They'll never hear the end of it.

01:02:02.000 A year and a half.

01:02:03.000 A year and a half, I'd say.

01:02:04.000 Well, you know, I wouldn't I goes that have they contacted you back and they're like, no, they said to do it.

01:02:09.000 And they give me a letter saying they do it.

01:02:11.000 Yeah.

01:02:11.000 So I don't know what he got.

01:02:13.000 I don't know what he got.

01:02:14.000 You know, how long has that been the case in Ireland?

01:02:16.000 Because when I was raised in Canada, we weren't allowed to have any privatized.

01:02:19.000 No, in Ireland, you can pay a private, no problem.

01:02:20.000 opened it up because so many, they declared it actually, it was a Supreme Court case,

01:02:24.000 declared it a violation of human rights because people were willing to pay for care right 0.94

01:02:28.000 in these scenarios.

01:02:29.000 And they said, you can't tell someone who's in agonizing pain or life-threatening condition

01:02:33.000 that they can't pay for their own healthcare.

01:02:35.000 So did that change more recently?

01:02:36.000 No.

01:02:37.000 In Ireland, they have, you can pay private, no problem.

01:02:41.000 Like my brother, he got jaw surgery a good while back, a good few years ago, maybe four

01:02:45.000 years ago.

01:02:46.000 And, you know, I advised him to go private, but he decided to wait on public and he was

01:02:51.000 about, he was waiting nearly a year and didn't get anything.

01:02:54.000 So I was like, just get, just get private, man.

01:02:57.000 And he got private and he got it, I don't know, with him.

01:03:00.000 I don't know, a few months or whatever, you know?

01:03:01.000 Yeah.

01:03:02.000 Well, if you're stateside now, if you're paying private anyway in Ireland, then you can probably just get a plan here in the United States if you're here and get in and out pretty quickly.

01:03:10.000 I mean, I think we had a number, was it Bernie Sanders versus the UK?

01:03:12.000 Those heart stints he got.

01:03:13.000 He got them in three hours here.

01:03:15.000 It would have been like 50-something days if he was there in the UK.

01:03:18.000 I don't know exactly Ireland on an individual.

01:03:19.000 America's pretty quick, yeah.

01:03:21.000 America's pretty quick for stuff like walk-in clinics and stuff like that.

01:03:25.000 They're very flexible.

01:03:28.000 But yeah, back to my surgery. 0.99

01:03:31.000 So, yeah, back to my balls. 0.99

01:03:34.000 I was trying to veer away from the balls. 0.98

01:03:36.000 You got one more minute, then we'll continue the ball talk on WebExtended,

01:03:39.000 because then I want you to go full tilt.

01:03:41.000 Wrap up the balls. 0.99

01:03:43.000 Oh yeah. 0.99

01:03:44.000 So basically the surgery is to make about a three, four inch incision and to take out your whole sack. 0.77

01:03:50.000 One side, one side, then they drain it.

01:03:53.000 I had an infection, so the tissue was...

01:03:55.000 Pretty thick down there, and they have to cut, they have to cut, like, the tissue, and then they wrap the, they put it back in, but the tissue gets wrapped around the ball and then tucked in, so you'll always have, like, a meatier ball than the other one.

01:04:09.000 That's gotta be rough being a streamer.

01:04:11.000 That's the speed, that's the speed run resolved.

01:04:13.000 And then afterwards, I don't, I'm gonna keep talking here, I need to vent.

01:04:18.000 Okay, go ahead and vent, go ahead and vent, but just, you know, sit in a bean bag if you need to.

01:04:21.000 Just let me go, just let me fly out here.

01:04:26.000 I got extreme constipation, which is the worst pain I've ever had in my life.

01:04:30.000 While having a surgery near the groin area, it was horrible.

01:04:34.000 And then, I didn't say this in my video, so this is a little special.

01:04:38.000 I actually went to poop once, farted, and only blood came out.

01:04:43.000 Oh no!

01:04:43.000 And it turned out I had a hemorrhoid that burst on the inside.

01:04:48.000 So it's like a poop only with blood.

01:04:50.000 That was all within the first week of recovering.

01:04:53.000 Gosh!

01:04:54.000 So it was pretty brutal.

01:04:56.000 Gosh!

01:04:57.000 Or not, it was fine.

01:04:59.000 That doesn't sound fine.

01:05:00.000 There are a lot of things that I would describe as fine.

01:05:03.000 A bloody stool after having a ball wrapped in mummy cloth is not chief amongst them.

01:05:09.000 Doesn't sound fine.

01:05:10.000 Well, I'm glad you're doing okay.

01:05:11.000 It must be hard to sit, though.

01:05:12.000 Like, do you have to switch chairs?

01:05:13.000 Right now it's fine.

01:05:14.000 Right now it's totally fine. 0.84

01:05:16.000 But yeah, for a good A good four weeks sitting was just even standing the blood would flow down to the area and then you'd get all the sensations back and you could feel inside of your testicle and like little stabby needles.

01:05:31.000 You know what's that thing that they put needles on people?

01:05:33.000 You know it's like an acupuncture.

01:05:36.000 Yeah, it's like acupuncture in your nut.

01:05:37.000 That's how I would describe it. 0.99

01:05:41.000 Well, you can't get them on your balls in the States. 0.92

01:05:42.000 It's against the toweling laws. 0.94

01:05:43.000 And I found that one out.

01:05:45.000 Apparently it's not part of the spa package.

01:05:47.000 Okay, so it is Naugla.

01:05:50.000 I won't try and get it wrong, but it's spelled D-A-T-H-I-D-A.

01:05:54.000 Naugla is the YouTube channel.

01:05:56.000 D-A-I-T-H-I. 1.00

01:05:56.000 I did. 1.00

01:05:57.000 D-A-I-T-H-I. 1.00

01:05:58.000 What did I say?

01:05:58.000 I think you missed the I.

01:06:00.000 I don't know. 0.99

01:06:00.000 I'm a little distracted talking about bloody balls. 0.99

01:06:03.000 We're going to go to WebExtended again. 0.98

01:06:05.000 Remember, everyone, next week starts Monday morning.

01:06:07.000 We'll be doing some video game streaming as well in the Mug Club quarantine month.

01:06:13.000 WebExtended, coming right up.

01:06:13.000 Stay with us.

01:06:14.000 Hey, from Mug Club, happy St. Patrick's Day. 0.54

01:06:22.000 I have a statement coming in, but I just really want this cigar.

01:06:37.000 Like I want to go smoke a jill back at my office.

01:06:41.000 Love hip hop, peep hop, pop pop pop.

01:06:43.000 Dance to your drum, hip hop, peep hop.

01:06:46.000 Boom boom boom, boom boom boom.

01:06:48.000 Just a little bit.

01:06:49.000 Woo! 0.99

01:06:50.000 Come on! 0.61

01:06:52.000 We gotta go, right?

01:06:54.000 Let's go.

01:06:55.000 Come on.

01:06:56.000 Let's do this.

01:06:57.000 One leg.

01:07:02.000 One leg.

01:07:03.000 Hey! 0.99

01:07:11.000 The Young Turks!

01:07:18.000 So what happened?

01:07:19.000 I thought we were talking about facts.

01:07:23.000 One other fact that I wanted to share with you is about, you know...

01:07:28.000 Reader's Digest in the 1970s made a point to really sensationalize the notion of the... So informed you won't need to fast track!

01:07:38.000 That's really bad for business.

01:07:40.000 Real talk.

01:07:40.000 Middle-aged Turks.

01:07:43.000 Find the aging Turks live weekdays from 6 to 8 p.m. 1.00

01:07:46.000 Watch them before they die! 0.96

01:07:48.000 Watch them before they die! 0.92

01:07:51.000 Oh Oh

01:08:33.000 That's called the gentleman died smoking his pipe underwater.

01:08:37.000 I like that.

01:08:37.000 It's classic.

01:08:38.000 He effectively waterboarded himself through his meerschaum.

01:08:43.000 And this isn't a meerschaum pipe, so people I know will be fact-checked on that.

01:08:47.000 Just stop.

01:08:49.000 We do have an extended interview, by the way, with the Dahi DiNagla. 0.69

01:08:52.000 I'm not going to get it right.

01:08:53.000 DiNagla.

01:08:54.000 There's no chance.

01:08:55.000 Mr. Nagla.

01:08:56.000 And I'm going to be honest.

01:08:57.000 I understood maybe 20% of what he said.

01:09:00.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:09:01.000 Just being generous.

01:09:02.000 And in the WebEx interview, he talks about which video games we'll be streaming in the Mug Club.

01:09:08.000 So again, the promo code is QUARANTINE.

01:09:10.000 If you join up at lidethcreditor.com slash Mug Club, you'll get $30 off.

01:09:15.000 And the hashtag is Mug Club Quarantine.

01:09:18.000 All month!

01:09:18.000 Go to lidethcreditor.com slash schedule.

01:09:20.000 Starting next Monday, Three times a week, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, at 10 a.m.

01:09:27.000 Eastern, right?

01:09:27.000 In the morning.

01:09:28.000 In the morning.

01:09:29.000 Live morning show.

01:09:30.000 Chat with people on Mug Club and then, of course, the full evening show and clips and meet segments.

01:09:34.000 And listen, we really appreciate how much you guys have supported us.

01:09:38.000 And this is not something that occurred without deliberation.

01:09:41.000 Right.

01:09:41.000 We were sitting here going like, man, well, okay, what are the risks if someone here gets the corona?

01:09:47.000 Yeah.

01:09:48.000 Or swine flu.

01:09:49.000 That could come back.

01:09:50.000 We never know.

01:09:51.000 We have a half-Asian there all the time.

01:09:52.000 There's a 50-50 shot that we end up with some upper respiratory disease or virus.

01:09:58.000 I'm not a doctor.

01:09:58.000 I don't fully understand the difference.

01:10:00.000 I know that one is bacteria and one is viral.

01:10:03.000 That's why you just blink it.

01:10:04.000 You'd be safe.

01:10:05.000 You just try and play it safe.

01:10:08.000 And let us know what it is that you're most looking forward to.

01:10:09.000 By the way, we'll be live-streaming one of these days.

01:10:13.000 Jean-Guy Tremblay will be live-streaming video games, I think playing Call of Duty with Denagla, so we'll see how that works out.

01:10:20.000 And what are you most looking forward to here this month?

01:10:22.000 Yeah, I think I'm really excited about just the glut of content.

01:10:26.000 I think that it's more content than ever, I think.

01:10:29.000 And also, for Mug Club members, they'll have more access to you.

01:10:32.000 They'll be able to ask as many questions as they want.

01:10:34.000 I did say axe.

01:10:35.000 Did you say axe?

01:10:35.000 That's my word.

01:10:36.000 That's okay.

01:10:37.000 What are you trying out for the NBA?

01:10:39.000 Just appropriating.

01:10:40.000 Do you have a mixtape dropping soon?

01:10:42.000 I do.

01:10:42.000 Yeah, check it out.

01:10:43.000 Yeah, there you go.

01:10:44.000 JackPiff.com.

01:10:44.000 Well, he came with his hat.

01:10:46.000 Yeah, so I think... Hey, do you ever think that maybe coronavirus will take out everyone who shops at Lids?

01:10:50.000 I think about it all the time.

01:10:51.000 Not that that would be good, but, you know, it'd just be like, it'd be a bycatch.

01:10:54.000 I gotta go to the doctor.

01:10:55.000 Yeah, yeah, so I think the morning show's gonna be so much fun.

01:10:58.000 I think, like, less structured will be, you know, fact-checking live, fact-checking CNN.

01:11:03.000 I'm excited about it.

01:11:05.000 People seeing a lot of other shows that we do all the time.

01:11:07.000 Yeah.

01:11:08.000 That they don't see, because they're not... I think a lot of people don't realize that there's like 80% more content every week at Blaze and Mug Club, and Stu has a show that plays there.

01:11:16.000 There are all kinds of people there.

01:11:17.000 You don't have to like every show.

01:11:18.000 I don't like every show, but that's the beauty of pairing up and having a network.

01:11:21.000 It's a little bit more relaxed.

01:11:22.000 We have a lot of fun over there, and it's cool to be able to give that to people that aren't in the Mug Club, and they can kind of see what it's like.

01:11:28.000 And a big thing too, I will say, it just aggravates me so much when I look at As a kid, if I was homesick, I remember for a while I'd watch the funniest thing I could find on TV.

01:11:38.000 And Morton Short had it, Morton Short.

01:11:41.000 I'm doing for you, Morton Short!

01:11:44.000 Morton hosted a show, and you know what?

01:11:46.000 A daytime show is hot!

01:11:48.000 I would watch Martin Short.

01:11:49.000 I would try and watch, at one point there was a show with Danny Bonaduce who was opposing The View.

01:11:55.000 You don't have a tough act to follow, but anything that was funnier.

01:11:58.000 And then if I was sick at night, I would always want to watch Letterman when I was young.

01:12:01.000 And then Conan.

01:12:03.000 And the fact that these late night hosts are just taking this time off and broadcasting from their webcams.

01:12:08.000 This is their moment to shine.

01:12:10.000 And you know what?

01:12:10.000 If anyone had a moment for an excuse to just do a webcam, it would be the people who started online.

01:12:16.000 This was started in my den.

01:12:19.000 Hopper was effectively a producer when I was broadcasting from my den.

01:12:22.000 But instead, I do understand this is where people talk about connection, and they think that somehow they're serving you with connection.

01:12:28.000 You know, Jimmy Kimmel, because he's talking into his webcam, like, oh, he's just like us.

01:12:32.000 No, they're not.

01:12:32.000 And you see how terrible, honestly, the content, the writing is.

01:12:36.000 I want this also to lift the veil a little bit for you.

01:12:39.000 People can do Photoshop from home.

01:12:41.000 People can shoot sketches from home.

01:12:43.000 Now, we don't have 140-something employees like they do.

01:12:46.000 I think right now we have eight in the office.

01:12:48.000 Usually it's 12, then we have three remote.

01:12:50.000 It's down to eight, just to protect some people who can work from home.

01:12:53.000 There's no excuse for people to not be, especially because it's considered an essential service.

01:12:59.000 Media!

01:13:00.000 You need to know that you're being swindled, and we're going to do everything we can to try and correct that.

01:13:06.000 It's going to be exciting.

01:13:08.000 I'm excited to see the live stream chats.

01:13:11.000 It's going to be cool to be able to interact with you guys while we're doing the show.

01:13:15.000 And programming-wise, we've got Ash Wednesday, which is more conversational.

01:13:20.000 We've got Mass Monday.

01:13:22.000 Well, a lot of people don't know, you know, we actually talk about issues that relate to theology or kind of culture at large.

01:13:27.000 In the morning show, we'll be fact-checking live.

01:13:28.000 We'll have guests on here.

01:13:29.000 And of course, some of the stuff that we used to do on the radio show.

01:13:31.000 It's a little more free flow.

01:13:32.000 We'll try a whole lot of new things.

01:13:34.000 And you're probably not going to like all of it.

01:13:36.000 I know I won't.

01:13:37.000 And one thing I want to say, this is not something...

01:13:40.000 You know, it's not like the Taylor Swift when she wins her, you know, 29th award.

01:13:43.000 Like, huh?

01:13:43.000 I didn't know.

01:13:46.000 Yeah, grabbing her face like she's the abominable snowman after Yukon Cornelius removed his teeth. 0.91

01:13:52.000 That's what I see.

01:13:53.000 You know, it's just disingenuous.

01:13:55.000 Really grateful and I will say one thing when I released that the kind of cell phone video talking about this Mug Club quarantine Month a lot of people commented and it's not lost on me Hey, don't overdo it because we know you had a scare with your health before when you were overworking and that is true that has happened before but we've taken all of that into account here and I think we're going to be able to do it pretty pretty well I've told everyone here that I am going to be as regiment doing two shows a day is not easy, right?

01:14:21.000 Radio is typically three hours of prep for every hour of radio.

01:14:25.000 I would say with this show, probably six hours of prep, at least, for every single hour, and then not to mention how many dozens of hours in pre-production.

01:14:33.000 So, I've told everyone, like, I've got to treat this like an athlete.

01:14:36.000 I've got to eat right, sleep right, be disciplined, because I'll have to be up, like, at 4.30 in the morning, making sure that we get this, making sure that we get everything fact-checked, making sure that we get all of our sources together before we do a morning show, which is fine for me, because ironically, for a late-night host, I'm a morning person.

01:14:47.000 Right, yeah.

01:14:47.000 A morning person.

01:14:48.000 I don't like the evenings.

01:14:51.000 I find them sad.

01:14:53.000 So I'm very, and it will be as much of a blessing, I think, for everyone here to be able to, because some of us are feeling isolated.

01:15:00.000 Like our policy is we are only allowed in the office and home and quarantine and limiting social contact.

01:15:06.000 Not that we think any of us are going to necessarily die from the coronavirus, but we all have parents, we all have grandparents, and we want to be responsible, especially at this point, err on the side of caution.

01:15:14.000 So we are a little bit cooped up in being able to have this direct contact and communication with you guys, especially people who seem to actually care.

01:15:22.000 Which is remarkable to me.

01:15:23.000 Sometimes people will bring something up and I'll see it or someone will send it to me from the comments section.

01:15:28.000 It could be about something that has to do with Hopper.

01:15:30.000 It could be something that I said in a show that someone's listening to an archive from five years ago.

01:15:34.000 And that's not the case with every single host.

01:15:36.000 I don't think that Jimmy Kimmel, that Stephen Colbert, that Samantha Bee will ever know what that is like.

01:15:42.000 And that's because they haven't been on this journey with you.

01:15:45.000 It's kind of like the difference between having, you know, having a dog since they're a puppy or having, you get to see them grow up.

01:15:51.000 We came up in this together.

01:15:53.000 To give you context, I've been doing YouTube videos since 2006, started doing political stuff in 2009.

01:15:58.000 It was a Fox News, PJTV.

01:16:00.000 When we started doing this show, so this show, full-length show, was syndicated on radio, the first couple shows had like 4,000 plays.

01:16:08.000 To the point where I remember saying, well, you know what?

01:16:09.000 Maybe we'll just create Mug Club at this point.

01:16:11.000 Maybe we'll just create it, and we'll just put it behind the paywall, because I don't think that a long-form show is ever going to work on YouTube.

01:16:15.000 Right.

01:16:15.000 Nobody wants to see this.

01:16:17.000 And then I got the 12,000.

01:16:18.000 Well, maybe we have some.

01:16:19.000 And then 20-something thousand.

01:16:20.000 And then millions of people each month.

01:16:23.000 It is something that legitimately started from the ground up.

01:16:27.000 A lot of criticisms of this show valid, OK?

01:16:30.000 Most of them.

01:16:31.000 I will be chief amongst the criticizers.

01:16:33.000 But the critics.

01:16:34.000 Is criticizer a word?

01:16:35.000 I think it's also a word, but it's a redundant word.

01:16:37.000 There's no need for critics.

01:16:40.000 But not a valid criticism is that it's astroturf.

01:16:44.000 And that's not because of us, that's because of you.

01:16:46.000 You have decided and dictated how this content moves forward, and we want this month to be an opportunity for us all to do that, to see what it is that you like, to connect with you guys.

01:16:56.000 Maybe you want us to do more long-form interviews.

01:16:57.000 Maybe you like us doing the livestream video games.

01:16:59.000 We don't know how it's going to end up or where we will be at the end of this month, but we are so grateful that we get to do it with you, that hopefully we serve you, hopefully this is helpful to you if you're cooped up at home, and that at the end of this month, we'll still be there with you, even though everyone else phoned it in.

01:17:16.000 So thank you so much.

01:17:17.000 Monday morning, 10 a.m.

01:17:19.000 Eastern, The Great Experiment begins. 0.92

01:17:22.000 Hashtag Mug Club Quarantine.

01:17:23.000 And please, thumbs up and leave something in the comment section right now.

01:17:26.000 Let people know about it, because we only survive, I don't know, like PBS.

01:17:31.000 Viewers like you!

01:17:32.000 And then $75 billion, or $75 million in federal funding.

01:17:34.000 We don't get that.

01:17:35.000 So it really is just viewers like you.

01:17:37.000 Next week.
