00:21:13.000 It's all so magical.

00:21:15.000 Don't think I've never had fun.

00:21:17.000 Sorry, right at first.

00:21:18.000 Someday it will end up the same.

00:21:22.000 I've never done it, and I've never had fun.

00:21:25.000 Hurry, ride that fast.

00:25:11.000 And...

00:25:12.000 Me!

00:25:13.000 That's who!

00:25:14.000 Goodbye.

00:25:14.000 Thank you.

00:25:15.000 Goodbye.

00:25:15.000 Music playing.

00:37:06.000 I can see through your camera because you don't have ExpressVPN.

00:37:09.000 Thank you so much for Mug Club quarantine and the support.

00:37:12.000 Glad to be back and happy to announce the winner is Tim A. from Des Moines, Iowa.

00:37:17.000 You are the winner of our grand prize.

00:37:18.000 We will fly you and a friend out to the studio here in the great state of Texas to sit in our live studio audience, be featured in a sketch, unless you have some kind of a contagious virus, in which case we will send you a fruit basket.

00:37:30.000 So thank you so much for the support.

00:37:32.000 Everyone else, enjoy the show.

00:37:37.000 Listen up, kids.

00:37:39.000 QBG talking to you.

00:37:40.000 Now while you're outside playing with your friends, it's always smart to stay safe.

00:37:44.000 Don't talk to strangers.

00:37:45.000 Also, you need to keep your eye out for the strange Chinaman. 1.00

00:37:49.000 What's a Chinaman?

00:37:50.000 I'll show you.

00:37:52.000 This is an artist's rendition of a Chinaman.

00:38:01.000 Yep, that's right.

00:38:02.000 Chinaman may have done a damn good job on the train roads, but some of them are dangerous. 0.80

00:38:07.000 One of them even tried to litigate me once. 0.81

00:38:09.000 Almost took all Mr. QBG's gold chains.

00:38:11.000 But I was able to obfuscate the law.

00:38:15.000 That's right.

00:38:16.000 So if you see a strange Chinaman in your neighborhood, tell your parents. 1.00

00:38:19.000 And don't come within six feet of him.

00:38:23.000 Sorry, that's enough. 0.99

00:38:26.000 Now don't be no fool. 0.99

00:38:27.000 Stay away from the Wu-Flu! 1.00

00:38:29.000 Ok sir!

00:38:37.000 You're going to be alright.

00:38:37.000 We have help on the way.

00:38:38.000 Where are you?

00:38:39.000 Uh, I think I'm okay.

00:38:41.000 I just want to get out of here, you know?

00:38:43.000 Okay.

00:38:43.000 Well, is anything broken?

00:38:45.000 My leg is stuck, but it's not really like... No, no, no.

00:38:49.000 That's not going to work.

00:38:49.000 I said no journey.

00:38:50.000 What?

00:38:50.000 What was that?

00:38:52.000 Don't worry about it.

00:38:53.000 We're going to be here.

00:38:53.000 We're staying right here with you, okay?

00:38:55.000 So just listen to the sound of my voice.

00:38:58.000 Earth, wind, and fire.

00:38:58.000 Perfect.

00:38:58.000 That'll work.

00:39:00.000 Alright, are you still there?

00:39:01.000 Are you still there?

00:39:02.000 Can you hear me?

00:39:02.000 I think I kind of sprained it pretty bad, not gonna lie.

00:39:05.000 But, I mean, I can move it, so it's like... Wait, what was that?

00:39:11.000 Sup?

00:39:12.000 Guys?

00:39:15.000 GUYS!

00:39:18.000 🎵Instrumental🎵 🎵Outro Music🎵

00:39:49.000 That's what I know.

00:39:55.000 You're too strange animal. 0.83

00:40:00.000 I can't follow. 0.98

00:40:04.000 On the streets.

00:40:11.000 That's the sound of us being back.

00:40:15.000 This entire stream could just be the demonetized logo.

00:40:22.000 Very happy about that.

00:40:23.000 We have the Hodge twins on the show later on today.

00:40:27.000 Before I go to some announcements, we have some big announcements to make regarding some changes here after the Mug Club quarantine month.

00:40:31.000 We appreciate you so much for being with us.

00:40:33.000 But that's kind of the first sketch there.

00:40:35.000 9-11, that you could never do on SNL.

00:40:38.000 No.

00:40:38.000 Just because people would say, you can't touch 9-11.

00:40:40.000 But it's actually honoring the heroes by showing how trivial the non-practicing nurses are using TikTok.

00:40:46.000 Let's see what you did there.

00:40:47.000 How many people died because of their choreographed dance?

00:40:50.000 It's tragic.

00:40:52.000 I know you're busy doing the village people, but I seem to have fluid pockets.

00:41:01.000 So, by the way, half-Asian lawyer Bill Richman is here.

00:41:03.000 How are you, sir?

00:41:03.000 Great.

00:41:04.000 Quarter Black Garrett is here. 1.00

00:41:05.000 QBG, I don't like it.

00:41:07.000 Audio Way, deal with it.

00:41:08.000 Too Cute Maddie, who disgusts me. 1.00

00:41:11.000 You can fit her in your back pocket, but you'll get gout.

00:41:14.000 She's so cute.

00:41:15.000 I didn't think that's how that works.

00:41:16.000 And then Gerald A. is here today.

00:41:19.000 What's the wine of the day?

00:41:19.000 The wine of the day is Bodyguard.

00:41:21.000 Bodyguard.

00:41:22.000 What's that in the bottle?

00:41:23.000 It's wine.

00:41:24.000 What do you mean?

00:41:25.000 What's that on the label?

00:41:27.000 Here, I can show you a little bit.

00:41:29.000 It's like a bodyguard.

00:41:30.000 Try it around there, Gerald A. No, no, Gerald A. He has no idea what is happening right now.

00:41:38.000 Read the label.

00:41:39.000 No, you don't try.

00:41:40.000 Okay, hold on a second.

00:41:44.000 You know what?

00:41:44.000 I appreciate that.

00:41:47.000 Crap! 1.00

00:41:48.000 You wrote on this bottle? 1.00

00:41:49.000 Jerks! 0.99

00:41:52.000 Now he gets it. 0.98

00:41:52.000 He even ruins practical jokes on him! 0.98

00:41:55.000 I've never seen you deface a $300 bottle before!

00:41:59.000 You'd crap in a popcorn bucket and leave it in the locker over the weekend in college and you'd be like, I think someone has a problem.

00:42:06.000 I'm worried! 0.98

00:42:06.000 Yes, you do! 0.98

00:42:07.000 You do!

00:42:10.000 His ability to defuse the jokes even directed at him.

00:42:14.000 Pretty good.

00:42:16.000 It takes practice.

00:42:17.000 It was like my grandmother operating the VCR with a giant blue button.

00:42:21.000 What?

00:42:22.000 Which one?

00:42:22.000 Obviously we already announced the winner who's going to come out here live with us, but listen, we got a lot of feedback from folks who really liked Good Morning Mug Club.

00:42:31.000 People saying we don't want this to stop because we like doing this with our morning commute and we like watching it live in the morning.

00:42:36.000 New schedule, Thursday is still going to be the same, and we are going to be doing Good Morning Mug Club going forward Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and the same big-ass show live on Thursday.

00:42:46.000 Boom! 0.99

00:42:46.000 Nice! 0.99

00:42:46.000 That's going to be awesome. 0.99

00:42:48.000 And we're still going to do some Ash Wednesdays, and we're still going to do some Life Advice, so add those.

00:42:51.000 So more content, and we'll be with you and we'll be streaming live every weekday morning and Saturday and Thursday at 9 a.m.

00:42:58.000 Central, so 10 a.m.

00:42:59.000 Eastern.

00:43:00.000 Ooh.

00:43:00.000 I'm not good at math.

00:43:01.000 It's tough.

00:43:02.000 It works.

00:43:02.000 The math works.

00:43:03.000 Help me!

00:43:04.000 It's 90% accurate.

00:43:04.000 No, no, I like to see you.

00:43:06.000 It accentuates my superiority.

00:43:08.000 Ah, yes.

00:43:09.000 Like me with height.

00:43:12.000 Oh.

00:43:12.000 Don't bring that up.

00:43:13.000 Or with ass girth. 1.00

00:43:14.000 Yes, as well. 0.99

00:43:15.000 Yes.

00:43:16.000 I'm putting that in your permanent record for when my people take over the planet. 1.00

00:43:19.000 Thank you.

00:43:20.000 Well, we'll see.

00:43:21.000 Maybe, I think it'll be 93% if we use their death rates.

00:43:25.000 I don't know!

00:43:27.000 That's the crematoriumists.

00:43:29.000 Also, we will be in the Lansing capital, in Michigan, by the way, next Friday.

00:43:37.000 That's the 22nd.

00:43:38.000 Doing a live, peaceful, respectful protest.

00:43:42.000 Details to follow us on follow me on Instagram, Loud Earth Crowder, or on Twitter, at S. Crowder.

00:43:46.000 Of course, we're going to be practicing proper social distancing, so use your masks.

00:43:49.000 We are not there to break the law.

00:43:50.000 Also, hint, bring your full head of hair. 0.95

00:43:52.000 So, question of the day.

00:43:56.000 And there are Lansing cops just aching to put me in jail.

00:44:00.000 Waiting for you.

00:44:01.000 Have you noticed that climate change activists now, they're trying to co-opt the coronavirus for their own filthy means, their own wet market means.

00:44:10.000 So I want to know if you notice that right now, and I think a lot of people do, but I guess it should be to what degree you think that a pandemic justifies a global government takeover.

00:44:21.000 50,000 degrees.

00:44:21.000 What?

00:44:24.000 No, I don't know what that means.

00:44:26.000 No, no, no.

00:44:26.000 It just says things.

00:44:27.000 I'm excited to talk about this topic. 1.00

00:44:28.000 But that's a perfect segue, because you're Chinese, and monkeys in your country are apparently bandit assholes. 1.00

00:44:34.000 Hey, hey, hey! 1.00

00:44:38.000 Look at the speed!

00:44:41.000 Look at the speed!

00:44:42.000 Whoa! 0.71

00:44:42.000 Hey! 0.71

00:44:44.000 He's not worried at all.

00:44:46.000 That clip, that acceleration, that's just zero to Mowgli.

00:44:49.000 Right away.

00:44:51.000 And she's fine.

00:44:53.000 She's fine.

00:44:53.000 Nobody was worried.

00:44:55.000 The baby just gets up like, monkey grabbing.

00:44:58.000 Happens every day.

00:44:59.000 That's a Tuesday.

00:45:01.000 Your average white suburban mom would see an Asian kid like, oh so cute.

00:45:05.000 Part and parcel of living in the alley.

00:45:09.000 What I love too is the mother, the mother doesn't do anything to protect her child. 0.81

00:45:13.000 Like you would think the instinct, everything we learn about mothers is like a throw yourself and like, oh my god, it's a monkey! 0.61

00:45:18.000 But the mom goes, ah! 1.00

00:45:21.000 And then the monkey starts dragging, so it would be excusable.

00:45:23.000 Can we play that again?

00:45:24.000 Can we play it again?

00:45:25.000 I want you guys to watch the reaction here.

00:45:27.000 Here, let's play it.

00:45:28.000 Okay, look, monkey comes in, so she can see it, watch. 0.76

00:45:31.000 Oh no!

00:45:32.000 And then she goes away! 0.99

00:45:34.000 She goes away! 1.00

00:45:38.000 The kid walks back.

00:45:39.000 Come on, Mom! 1.00

00:45:40.000 Yeah, she's not lifting up a car. 1.00

00:45:41.000 Come on, Mom! 1.00

00:45:42.000 Is she going to hang me out to dry like this?

00:45:47.000 So strong and so fast! 0.64

00:45:49.000 Where did that monkey get the motorcycle, by the way?

00:45:51.000 Where did that come from?

00:45:52.000 Incredible.

00:45:53.000 I have no idea.

00:45:55.000 Not all cultures are equal. 0.96

00:45:57.000 Before we move on, by the way, I should say we've gotten a new sponsor, Barbie Sparker glasses.

00:46:01.000 Really excited about the product, glad to have them on.

00:46:03.000 So keep an eye out for the Barbie Sparker commercial in the first commercial break.

00:46:09.000 We're proud of it.

00:46:10.000 We weren't off.

00:46:10.000 We've taped so many sketches, so many intros, so we have a lot of content.

00:46:13.000 We had to update all the software here.

00:46:14.000 But while we were gone, this is a story.

00:46:17.000 Canadian police arrested someone at gunpoint, a citizen at gunpoint, who was dressed in a Star Wars Stormtrooper costume.

00:46:24.000 Complete with a replica laser blaster because they thought she had a real gun. 1.00

00:46:29.000 This comes from Lethbridge News.

00:46:32.000 911 reported two calls from people who saw the girl brandishing a plastic toy blaster.

00:46:36.000 They believed it was real and we've actually obtained exclusive footage.

00:46:41.000 should warn you the following content the following altercation footage of the

00:46:45.000 police officers and the citizen in question is disturbing that's not mine.

00:47:16.000 What's a 9-11 intro sketch without a Rodney King parody?

00:47:19.000 You gotta hit all the marks.

00:47:20.000 You really, really do.

00:47:29.000 How much harder is your job after today?

00:47:32.000 I'm just thinking about the second house I'm gonna buy now.

00:47:36.000 I can't believe nobody's done it before.

00:47:39.000 For sure we'd be retreading new ground.

00:47:44.000 Call us Copernicus.

00:47:45.000 So the female employee was actually, so she was out in full costume by the way. 1.00

00:47:48.000 I want to make sure they follow up because we don't, we jest, but this is serious.

00:47:51.000 And the police didn't recognize the costume.

00:47:53.000 They said that they believed her to be a member of a militant anti-government militia.

00:47:59.000 Yes, because militia men dress in white plastic.

00:48:02.000 That's a strange militia.

00:48:04.000 From head to toe. 0.99

00:48:06.000 What the heck? 0.99

00:48:06.000 Militia of nerds. 0.99

00:48:08.000 Oh my goodness.

00:48:09.000 That was impossible, they didn't see Star Wars.

00:48:10.000 We're the Lucas Keepers.

00:48:11.000 Wait, were they like Star Trek fans?

00:48:15.000 I mean, I don't understand, but how would you have not seen any part of that?

00:48:19.000 I mean, was there any explanation beyond it?

00:48:21.000 No, not much.

00:48:23.000 Honestly, there may have been, but immediately my mind went to Rodney King, so that's really all I cared about.

00:48:28.000 No further research.

00:48:30.000 But we will be talking about the UN and Greta Thunberg, so you know, that'll be more informative.

00:48:37.000 Switching—actually, the latest, of course, COVID-19 news.

00:48:40.000 I thought we would be done with this by the time we're through the month, but it's no—did you know it's no longer about flat—you thought it was about flattening the curve.

00:48:46.000 Oh.

00:48:46.000 No?

00:48:46.000 It's about Bill Gates making a vaccine.

00:48:49.000 Oh.

00:48:49.000 Right.

00:48:50.000 So, take your unemployment and, um, Windows 98.

00:48:54.000 So, um, the latest COVID-19 news—the virus has apparently, um, I don't like saying this, but it's been detected in semen now.

00:49:01.000 This comes from Rolling Stone.

00:49:03.000 The study assessed semen samples from 38 patients, found detectable levels, viral loads, in the semen.

00:49:10.000 Viral loads?

00:49:11.000 Yes.

00:49:11.000 This has led the World Health Organization, the CDC, and leading health officials to chip off San Francisco with an ice pick and push it off into the middle of the ocean.

00:49:19.000 It's about time.

00:49:20.000 It's sad that it took this.

00:49:22.000 I don't know.

00:49:23.000 Thought it tasted a little off.

00:49:24.000 That's not me!

00:49:25.000 That was a character!

00:49:27.000 It's a quote!

00:49:27.000 It's not a character!

00:49:28.000 It's a quote!

00:49:29.000 Don't indict me!

00:49:30.000 It's a quote!

00:49:31.000 I'm so sorry.

00:49:31.000 I'm sorry.

00:49:32.000 It's a quote. 0.98

00:49:32.000 Disgusting! 0.98

00:49:33.000 It's not a quote. 0.93

00:49:34.000 The other person that said that.

00:49:35.000 Not you.

00:49:35.000 You don't need to quote Gerald while he's here.

00:49:37.000 You did the mouth smack.

00:49:38.000 You could just say it himself. 1.00

00:49:42.000 I hate you, dude. 0.59

00:49:45.000 In California, speaking of which, the state, they ruled that Elon Musk and Grimes' child, they cannot legally be named. 0.96

00:49:52.000 Is this X-A-E-A-12?

00:49:54.000 Yeah.

00:49:55.000 Don't forget the dash.

00:49:57.000 Dash 12.

00:49:58.000 So they're going to have to choose a new name. 0.64

00:49:59.000 So they said they'll either name the child after the mother and call it Claire, or after the father and name it Ugly Bastard. 0.95

00:50:06.000 So that's the choice.

00:50:07.000 Yeah, it would have worked if I pronounced father.

00:50:09.000 That's fine.

00:50:14.000 Like that would have saved it, yeah.

00:50:18.000 I'm operating at a handicap because I have the bird flu.

00:50:21.000 I always get the wrong one.

00:50:23.000 It's like everyone else is on Jaws 3.

00:50:26.000 I'm still like, when you thought it was safe to go back into the water.

00:50:29.000 That was the other one.

00:50:29.000 We're on 3.

00:50:30.000 3D.

00:50:31.000 Michael Caine.

00:50:32.000 You always get the wrong viruses.

00:50:34.000 I'll give you SARS-3 now if you want it.

00:50:36.000 Really?

00:50:36.000 Oh, is that the thing?

00:50:37.000 He's already got it.

00:50:37.000 They're always ahead of the curve.

00:50:38.000 They are, yeah.

00:50:39.000 A lot of people say that the Asians... You're out here flattening number two and I'm already on number three.

00:50:43.000 I appreciate that, I bet you, because a lot of people say that the Chinese are only good at taking technology that we develop and then steal it.

00:50:48.000 But the fact is, they are the ones, when it comes to creating new viruses, they're like Thomas Edison.

00:50:54.000 Yes, they are.

00:50:55.000 I've been to kindergarten.

00:50:56.000 I know how to share.

00:50:57.000 Do you?

00:50:57.000 They are creators, Steven.

00:50:59.000 Creators.

00:50:59.000 Also, you're a communist.

00:51:00.000 So, finally... It's caring.

00:51:03.000 Governor Whitmer, this is something that's been, people have been upset about.

00:51:11.000 I don't want to say upset, but there's been a huge reaction.

00:51:13.000 I understand that we have to have signers for people who are on TV, hearing impaired, but there's been a reaction to this because now it is just, the signing is distracting and it's gotten out of hand.

00:51:26.000 I know that this has been a hard time for people trying to make ends meet when everything's essentially shut down and especially for small business owners who've built up something over the course of decades and they're worried.

00:51:40.000 That's not a sketch!

00:51:42.000 That's real.

00:51:43.000 That is absolutely 100% real.

00:51:44.000 Look at the eyebrows on that lady. 1.00

00:51:47.000 Lady?

00:51:47.000 That's generous.

00:51:50.000 There was a little bit of internal debate until we paused it.

00:51:56.000 Further discussion, yeah.

00:51:58.000 Hands that could crack a lobster.

00:52:02.000 They were like polar bear paws, man.

00:52:03.000 They were huge.

00:52:04.000 They were rather large.

00:52:05.000 For seeing the hands, that was the best.

00:52:09.000 It's just stuff that gives children nightmares.

00:52:13.000 So here's the thing.

00:52:13.000 I understand the criticism.

00:52:15.000 People have been saying this is a little bit distracting.

00:52:18.000 But I think a lot of people, since this is sort of a local politician who's been thrust in the national spotlight, you're not aware of this.

00:52:23.000 If you know her history, it's actually a serious improvement.

00:52:28.000 Each of the actions that we've taken, though, has been because of the incredible threat that COVID-19 has presented to our state.

00:52:35.000 The number of lives lost, the incredible spread.

00:52:38.000 In Shiawassee County, which is where this barber's shop is, we have 196 confirmed cases of COVID-19 right now.

00:52:47.000 We've had 13 deaths in that county alone.

00:52:50.000 And the protections and the work that we've done is to protect... Look, everybody's got a carrot top on the payroll.

00:53:02.000 But she's getting better.

00:53:03.000 You know, I like the fact that the celebrities are out there, you know, like Dave Grohl doing signing.

00:53:06.000 I mean, that's amazing.

00:53:07.000 Is he doing signing?

00:53:08.000 Man, you look like Dave Grohl on there.

00:53:10.000 Dave Grohl.

00:53:11.000 Oh my gosh.

00:53:13.000 I missed it, I'm sorry. 0.99

00:53:14.000 Call me Gerald A. Yeah, kind of like I missed the penis, yeah. 0.99

00:53:19.000 I didn't quite have a giant big penis drawn on the page in front of me and look right past it. 0.99

00:53:24.000 It was turning away from me. 0.99

00:53:25.000 Which also just tells us that it's so commonplace for you to see large hairy penises that you don't even notice them. 0.98

00:53:31.000 Yeah, I didn't see it. 0.97

00:53:33.000 It's like for him, it's like missing Waldo.

00:53:36.000 He's never there.

00:53:37.000 It's just another place.

00:53:39.000 It's just another candy cane forest.

00:53:40.000 Just hidden.

00:53:43.000 Waldo's never there?

00:53:44.000 Gosh.

00:53:45.000 If Waldo's face were on a milk carton, it would be exclusively on, like, peppermint milk.

00:53:49.000 I don't know why he makes it so hard for everyone to find him, Waldo. 0.98

00:53:51.000 Jerk. 0.88

00:53:52.000 Change the outfit! 0.99

00:53:53.000 Every once in a while.

00:53:54.000 Okay.

00:53:55.000 So, um, and this is, I do want to move on.

00:53:59.000 So this is actually, I think, going on right, it might be going on at the same time right now, the, uh, the, the CNN, uh, Climate Town Hall.

00:54:04.000 Oh boy.

00:54:05.000 We don't have the hookup We're moving some stuff around the set, so we're going to have CNN, of course, for Good Morning Mug Club.

00:54:10.000 Here's the thing.

00:54:11.000 We can't show it right now, but I can pretty much guess how it's going to go.

00:54:15.000 So let me fill you in.

00:54:18.000 No flipping!

00:54:20.000 So it's a CNN town hall, and this is actually going to have former acting CDC director Richard Besser, former HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius, and activist Greta Thunberg.

00:54:31.000 They join Anderson Cooper and Dr. Sanjay Gupta for a live scene in Town Hall.

00:54:35.000 About the coronavirus.

00:54:37.000 One of these things does not look like the other.

00:54:40.000 What happened to the experts?

00:54:43.000 We have the head of the CDC, we have a neurosurgeon, and we have an autistic girl who yells, how dare you? 1.00

00:54:50.000 I think she's perfect for the panel. 0.98

00:54:51.000 There's nothing that's more important right now, according to the media, than shaming everyone for everything that they do.

00:54:57.000 And she's really good at it.

00:54:59.000 She actually raises the intelligence. 0.99

00:55:01.000 I'm not saying I agree, I'm just saying you got to respect her shame level.

00:55:04.000 I respect her shame game.

00:55:05.000 So I do think a couple of facts to kind of hit and then we'll discuss this a little bit.

00:55:09.000 Of course the left have tried to set this up already.

00:55:11.000 They're attacking anyone who questions the COVID stats.

00:55:14.000 Not even the COVID statistics, but the initial coronavirus statistics that have been proven verifiably false.

00:55:19.000 The four to seven percent death rates, the two million dead.

00:55:21.000 By the way, a super shout out to our wonderful researcher Reg So they've been trying to frame, of course, everyone who says, you know what?

00:55:35.000 I think we need to reopen the economy.

00:55:36.000 I think we need to balance lives and livelihoods as science deniers, right?

00:55:40.000 And so they're trying to now equate the denial of COVID being, you know, a virus with a 10% death rate or like Ebola with a 50% death rate.

00:55:50.000 It's all the same people.

00:55:51.000 These people deny science just like climate change.

00:55:52.000 Okay, we'll come back to this in a second.

00:55:54.000 AOC, she even did a video where she was talking about COVID being a test run for how to approach climate change, and she's been saying that the Green New Deal is scientifically necessary.

00:56:02.000 Again, let's go to the experts.

00:56:04.000 It started with politicians who ignored warnings by scientists.

00:56:09.000 It continued through a program of us knowing that we needed to act quickly and needed to take dramatic action fast in order to contain the damage.

00:56:19.000 There's so much that's politically vested in making sure that we don't do that, right?

00:56:25.000 For example, this idea, it's like when scientists and epidemiologists started saying, listen, we have to shut down our cities and our states immediately, right now, just as an immediate precaution, because we did not take action earlier.

00:56:42.000 The communities that suffer first are the ones that are working class, Black, brown, essential workers, all of that parallels with the climate movement.

00:56:52.000 It is scientifically informed.

00:56:55.000 This is scientifically informed legislation.

00:56:57.000 I'm not here to tell you what is politically easy.

00:57:00.000 I'm here to tell you what is scientifically necessary.

00:57:04.000 Is it a fact, doctor?

00:57:07.000 I like her use of the very lawyerly word, inform.

00:57:10.000 Scientifically informed.

00:57:11.000 Not scientifically based.

00:57:14.000 Not scientifically sourced.

00:57:15.000 Scientifically informed.

00:57:17.000 Scientists were near this when it was created.

00:57:20.000 She would be served well to attend finishing school from LeBron James.

00:57:25.000 Anyway, I'm doing my duty to inform as I conversate.

00:57:30.000 You are just lovely.

00:57:31.000 Here's the thing, too.

00:57:33.000 I just find it so funny that all of a sudden they call their own experts.

00:57:38.000 Why would you listen to Dr. Bricks?

00:57:39.000 We need to listen to experts.

00:57:40.000 Like AOC.

00:57:42.000 But the short version is that she wants more of this?

00:57:45.000 Yeah, I love how she just feathers in like, they didn't take the precaution. 1.00

00:57:48.000 You mean shutting down the world?

00:57:50.000 It's a precautionary measure.

00:57:52.000 It's a precautionary measure.

00:57:54.000 I think I have the sniffles. 1.00

00:57:55.000 Well, as a precautionary measure, we're going to cut off your dick. 1.00

00:57:59.000 That seems a little severe. 1.00

00:58:01.000 You don't know how bad the cold can get.

00:58:04.000 We're well past Robitussin MD.

00:58:06.000 It's now time to lose the D. Don't worry, we'll draw it back on.

00:58:13.000 He just noticed it.

00:58:15.000 So another fact, the World Economic Forum, lest you think I make this up, them trying to inextricably tie this, they're now calling for a flattening of the climate curve.

00:58:24.000 That's a new curve.

00:58:26.000 What?

00:58:27.000 So many curves!

00:58:29.000 It's like Raquel Welch, it's so curvy.

00:58:32.000 Where have we heard this before?

00:58:34.000 Flattening the curve.

00:58:37.000 It's the curve after the curve.

00:58:38.000 I'm surprised they're using that now because it's no longer about flattening the COVID curve.

00:58:42.000 It's about the cure.

00:58:43.000 The curve is irrelevant.

00:58:44.000 We've already flattened the curve. 0.99

00:58:45.000 Who gives a rat's ass? 0.98

00:58:46.000 According to AOC, we shouldn't come back until every man, woman, and child has a vaccine and microchip from Bill Gates. 0.99

00:58:52.000 Another fact, the UN chief used his Earth Day speech to confront Trump on climate change.

00:58:57.000 He was linking it, of course, to coronavirus and saying that it was the bigger threat.

00:59:01.000 And then finally, UC Berkeley, they've hosted a panel.

00:59:04.000 I think I have this here.

00:59:04.000 What's the panel?

00:59:05.000 The panel is environmental and energy experts.

00:59:08.000 Those people.

00:59:09.000 Like AOC, to discuss the current COVID-19 pandemic, offer lessons on how shared global solutions can help beat back the continued threat of climate change.

00:59:18.000 So a couple of things here, by the way, hit the notification bell if you're subscribed, hit all notifications because subscriptions don't mean a whole lot, and just check in every single day here because we do new videos every day, and of course Crowder Bits.

00:59:27.000 This is remarkable to me, and I want to hear what you guys have to say about this because we've heard from the experts.

00:59:32.000 Who's denying science at this point?

00:59:34.000 Who is denying science when we... I mean, let's just use the most extreme examples, okay?

00:59:39.000 The most extreme examples humanly possible.

00:59:41.000 The people who said, oh, this is about comparable to the flu, and they were just excoriating, like, I can't believe... They were taken behind the woodshed.

00:59:48.000 How could you downplay this?

00:59:49.000 Versus the initial expert who had to resign in shame, saying two million dead.

00:59:53.000 So let's say it's double the number of right now.

00:59:56.000 Right?

00:59:56.000 Let's say we're at 150,000 deaths flu season.

00:59:58.000 We've had flu seasons with 80,000 deaths versus 2 million.

01:00:01.000 It is so much closer to the crazy non-experts who said it's more comparable to the flu that it wouldn't even appear on the same line chart.

01:00:10.000 Absolutely.

01:00:10.000 And one of the first things that they said was that John Cornyn tweeted out, he said, after this is all done, we need to have a good faith discussion about these models.

01:00:18.000 And that's what they said made him a denier.

01:00:21.000 Right.

01:00:21.000 Because he's like, oh, these models, we need to have a good faith discussion about what's

01:00:24.000 going on here because it said two million and now it says nothing close to that.

01:00:28.000 And that's what they, really?

01:00:29.000 I can't even ask to have a conversation?

01:00:31.000 The thing is about that model, we have a new model.

01:00:35.000 It's like Victoria's Secret.

01:00:36.000 The shelf life on that, it's pretty short.

01:00:39.000 Let me guess, this model has more curves.

01:00:41.000 Yes.

01:00:41.000 So many curves!

01:00:43.000 It used to be about curves, not flattening them, but having them.

01:00:46.000 Yeah, no, exactly.

01:00:47.000 Now we have a new model.

01:00:48.000 And so I wonder when they say we're going to get rid of misinformation on social media, you know, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube.

01:00:52.000 Well, hold on a second.

01:00:54.000 Does that include the World Health Organization saying that it couldn't be transmitted from human to human contact?

01:00:59.000 Oh, well, no, no, we won't remove that because that's what we believed at the time of the information we had.

01:01:04.000 Ah, Taiwan's saying, have a minute!

01:01:06.000 So, um, no, but even then... And they're like, they sent so many meeting requests, everyone denied it.

01:01:11.000 And why did you believe it?

01:01:12.000 Because of the tweets.

01:01:13.000 Right.

01:01:14.000 People believed it because of the tweets.

01:01:16.000 What about the tweets out there from the Chinese ambassador who said that it was started by American troops?

01:01:20.000 Well, that was based on the information that we had at that time. 1.00

01:01:22.000 Come again, stupid? 1.00

01:01:24.000 You're going to have a problem with Pizzagate, but not the Chinese ambassador saying, it was Marine! 1.00

01:01:28.000 You saw Avatar, the asshole! 1.00

01:01:30.000 The bad guy. 1.00

01:01:32.000 It's so bad.

01:01:33.000 Why Avatar?

01:01:35.000 The Marines were bad.

01:01:36.000 They were all former Marines. 0.99

01:01:37.000 They were all black ops. 0.90

01:01:38.000 Gerald hasn't seen that movie.

01:01:40.000 I guarantee you he's seen that movie.

01:01:42.000 He thinks he has.

01:01:43.000 He's just seen Ferngully in 4K.

01:01:44.000 That's it.

01:01:45.000 I feel like it's the same.

01:01:47.000 It's pretty close.

01:01:48.000 The visuals!

01:01:49.000 And it is remarkable to me how inconsistent it is here.

01:01:52.000 Here's what we said early on.

01:01:54.000 I think, okay, I understand a precautionary measure when we didn't have any data.

01:01:57.000 Exactly.

01:01:58.000 We didn't have any information.

01:01:59.000 Okay, you shut down for a little bit or you take some precautionary measures.

01:02:03.000 You quarantine the sick and the vulnerable because that's typically what you do.

01:02:05.000 You quarantine the sick, not the healthy.

01:02:07.000 That's understandable, especially when we were hearing from China, by the way, in the World Health Organization, that it could be a 7%... Well, of course we want to do that. 1.00

01:02:13.000 But now, in the face of overwhelming data, where even leftist governors tell us, okay, it's about a 0.5% death rate at the top end, in the face of data, you are still pushing to ruin people's lives.

01:02:27.000 Why?

01:02:27.000 Well, you know what?

01:02:28.000 Why?

01:02:29.000 Listen to... Allow us to make our case as we present the experts.

01:02:32.000 Greta, you're witness.

01:02:34.000 Well, and that they're using the same term that evidently worked to make people shut down the entire economy makes you realize, oh, that's the goal.

01:02:42.000 So it worked the first time.

01:02:44.000 Okay, well, let's use the same terms that at least are going to have the same results.

01:02:47.000 Right.

01:02:47.000 And that's what they're going for.

01:02:48.000 Yeah.

01:02:49.000 And in the article that even went back, just going back on that point, said that if the basic thing was saying that people were a climate denier, there's the same people that are saying the COVID thing wasn't, the models weren't wrong.

01:03:00.000 It's just that we had stuff happen.

01:03:02.000 Social distancing happened, you closed it down, and we're like, wait a minute, no, you factored that in to begin with, and you said that even with that, this was going to be the case.

01:03:08.000 So tell me, in the climate thing, what you're going to do.

01:03:11.000 Then you're going to change the model, and then you're going to move the goalposts again, and then you're going to exclude China from the equation, and then we're still all going to burn.

01:03:16.000 They've been wrong at nearly every single turn.

01:03:18.000 I don't want to be Donald Trump, but they've been wrong at every single turn.

01:03:24.000 Everyone. 0.99

01:03:26.000 There are no exceptions, and you're nasty. 1.00

01:03:29.000 You're so nasty. 1.00

01:03:32.000 They were wrong about Georgia. 0.99

01:03:33.000 They were wrong about Georgia.

01:03:34.000 And so they have to move the goalposts now to no longer.

01:03:37.000 The goalposts are no longer, well, hold on a second.

01:03:39.000 Everyone's going to die if you open up your economy.

01:03:40.000 Because in Texas, guess what?

01:03:42.000 Nowhere near as severe as Michigan.

01:03:44.000 Nowhere near the kind of infections.

01:03:45.000 We have a lot of big cities here in Texas.

01:03:47.000 It's not just some small state with podunk towns.

01:03:50.000 We were reasonable in our approach.

01:03:51.000 And I'm not saying that not having lockdowns is more effective than having lockdowns.

01:03:55.000 I'm saying there is no rhyme or reason at this point when you look at the statistics outside of the fact that It's dangerous if you're over 80 or have pre-existing comorbidities.

01:04:05.000 That's what we know.

01:04:06.000 The rest we don't.

01:04:07.000 So they said everyone was going to die needlessly in Georgia.

01:04:09.000 Well, Georgia is now beyond the curve.

01:04:11.000 Yeah.

01:04:12.000 Right?

01:04:12.000 Well, and they're doing just fine.

01:04:13.000 Like, they're seeing kind of this cliff fall-off that we talked about that other nations around the world... Well, and I wonder if not just fine, because of course, every life matters.

01:04:19.000 Of course, yeah.

01:04:20.000 But, compared to what they said, yeah.

01:04:21.000 Relative to the risks that we are used to taking every single day of our lives that maybe we just didn't know that we were taking.

01:04:26.000 Every year we have a flu risk.

01:04:27.000 Every year we have a death by automobile accident risk, or by murder, or by something happening in the hospital when you go in for a procedure that's not supposed to kill you that accidentally does.

01:04:36.000 And all of a sudden... Like Michael Myers showing up in the sequel.

01:04:38.000 Well, that's true.

01:04:39.000 General Gray's a really good point.

01:04:40.000 What?

01:04:41.000 I know.

01:04:43.000 I know.

01:04:44.000 But the comparison to reality of how many lives are actually lost and the changes, it's not just about how many more lives have been lost due to COVID, but compared to what our normal death rates would have been, compared to the risk like you're saying, and when you actually do that and you're not just screaming about politics and people saying if you open the economy you hate every human being, it all falls apart.

01:05:06.000 Well, you had a point you were making before the show, too, that you see this as a push for a global government.

01:05:11.000 I think that, you know, there was no question that earlier, pre-corona, there was a push for having that type of globalization and interconnectedness and ultimately a level of authority beyond just the UN and Geneva Conventions and those types of things.

01:05:11.000 I do.

01:05:25.000 But to say, you know, that the United States and other countries should cede their authority to international governments to control these issues.

01:05:31.000 And that's not to say that it's not better for us to cooperate, but there's a difference between cooperation and ceding authority.

01:05:38.000 And here now the push has become even further.

01:05:40.000 Well, we couldn't use Corona to push it because obviously Corona says you need to go the opposite direction.

01:05:45.000 You need to make sure you're independently based or not.

01:05:47.000 is dependent on foreign powers and global supply chains.

01:05:50.000 But so now they're having to say, well, okay, that's not working, so let's move to the

01:05:53.000 other one.

01:05:53.000 And it's not to say, again, that cooperation isn't important or that there isn't some

01:05:57.000 concern in a global level for the environment, but that doesn't mean

01:06:01.000 that we take the Gran Turismo Greta Thunberg version of going out there 0.91

01:06:05.000 and just everyone has to listen to the UN on everything or listen to her 0.95

01:06:10.000 on everything. Not only is she not a scientist, I'm pretty sure she's never made the baking

01:06:13.000 soda lemon juice volcano.

01:06:14.000 How could she know science?

01:06:17.000 Or is it lemon juice?

01:06:18.000 Is it vinegar in baking soda?

01:06:20.000 I think either word.

01:06:21.000 We're going to do that next week.

01:06:22.000 That'll be a commercial break.

01:06:24.000 It's a lot of fun.

01:06:25.000 I like my bubble wrap.

01:06:27.000 What were you about to say there?

01:06:28.000 Well, and so one of the other points that they brought up is that the COVID-19 virus is nature's warning.

01:06:33.000 So this is mother nature.

01:06:35.000 Literally, it was in the article.

01:06:36.000 It said, this is mother nature's warning that we have to listen to.

01:06:38.000 He's back on the fern gully. 0.98

01:06:42.000 But, I mean, think about how dumb that sounds. 0.56

01:06:44.000 Like, climate change is so bad that Mother Nature is saying, well, if they don't listen on this, maybe they'll listen to this virus and they'll get the bigger picture. 0.94

01:06:52.000 Like, that's what they're saying they're going to have to use.

01:06:54.000 That's a crazy leap.

01:06:55.000 I couldn't even make that leap, right?

01:06:57.000 Which, likewise, doesn't work.

01:06:58.000 Yeah, absolutely.

01:06:59.000 And you know what?

01:06:59.000 I will say there are a couple of lessons that we've learned from COVID.

01:07:01.000 We have the Hodgschwins coming up after this. 0.98

01:07:02.000 They're going to be talking about, what was it?

01:07:04.000 I just forgot.

01:07:04.000 Ahmaud?

01:07:05.000 How do you pronounce it?

01:07:06.000 Ah-mah-d? 1.00

01:07:07.000 Ah-mah-d. 1.00

01:07:09.000 I don't know how to... Is it just a mod?

01:07:10.000 Because it has a U, and I knew a guy, a mod, who didn't have a U. I don't want to get it wrong.

01:07:15.000 Because that's the most dangerous landmine in covering that topic.

01:07:23.000 9-11 sketch, Rodney King parody, and the Hodge twins to discuss Ahmaud Arbery.

01:07:28.000 It's going to be a good show.

01:07:29.000 What could go wrong?

01:07:30.000 Epic!

01:07:30.000 Just like we've learned this when we're talking about the economy, we've had some lessons that we've learned from this right here.

01:07:36.000 The federal government can't be a charity.

01:07:37.000 This is what they're saying.

01:07:38.000 The federal government can help right now a couple of things.

01:07:38.000 Well, you know what?

01:07:41.000 That shows you how politicized it is, because right now Democrats are saying, well, the Republicans are holding up this new stimulus bill.

01:07:45.000 Who held up the stimulus bill before we flattened the curve?

01:07:45.000 Hold on a second.

01:07:49.000 Remember?

01:07:50.000 You guys wanted to shove everything in there with earmarks and God knows what.

01:07:53.000 It was the Republicans who said we need to do this so that we can flatten the curve.

01:07:56.000 Now that we've flattened the curve, and you're talking about another stimulus, which a lot of it can be a big giant kickback to the postal union when you actually look at what they want to do.

01:08:04.000 At this point, we're past the curve.

01:08:05.000 Now you're trying to play politics with it and say Republicans are trying to stop the spending bill?

01:08:09.000 You guys were doing it when we actually needed it.

01:08:12.000 But let's assume for a second when people say, well, there's no choice between making a living in the economy or staying healthy if the government just does its job.

01:08:20.000 How much money have we spent now?

01:08:22.000 Trillions.

01:08:23.000 Many trillions of dollars.

01:08:25.000 More than ever as far as acute spending in the history of the United States.

01:08:28.000 That floated us for a month.

01:08:31.000 If that.

01:08:31.000 So how much if you spend more?

01:08:33.000 Right?

01:08:34.000 Let's call it 20 trillion dollars.

01:08:36.000 Our entire debt clock.

01:08:40.000 3.5 months.

01:08:41.000 There's not enough money.

01:08:42.000 And by the way, it runs out faster if nobody is working.

01:08:45.000 So we've learned that the federal government cannot be a charity.

01:08:48.000 It's not Samaritan's Purse.

01:08:50.000 But you know what else?

01:08:51.000 That businesses, it's a self-sustaining charity.

01:08:54.000 You go to your local coffee shop, you go to your restaurant, that allows them to provide a living, not only for the business owners, but their employees, when you are voluntarily offering money for goods or services.

01:09:04.000 And something else that I think is undeniable here, while we're talking about the climate change green movement, and they want to equate the two, and you know what?

01:09:10.000 So do I!

01:09:10.000 Just like they wanted you to remember coronavirus and Donald Trump's handling of it going into November, yep!

01:09:15.000 I want you to remember all of it.

01:09:16.000 2 million dead, 7% death rate.

01:09:18.000 Please do not forget.

01:09:19.000 We've been consistent.

01:09:20.000 I want you to remember when they accused us of being science deniers because of our position on coronavirus.

01:09:25.000 Here's something interesting to me.

01:09:26.000 This is proven beyond any shadow of a doubt that absolutely positively surrounding Trump.

01:09:30.000 No exceptions.

01:09:31.000 No exceptions.

01:09:33.000 How many?

01:09:34.000 I said none.

01:09:35.000 Did you hear me?

01:09:37.000 Did you hear me stutter?

01:09:38.000 Do I look like Acosta?

01:09:43.000 That the Green Movement hates people.

01:09:45.000 I was at a co-op health food store in Michigan.

01:09:45.000 Think about this.

01:09:49.000 By the way, huge culture of fear in Michigan compared to Texas.

01:09:52.000 I was walking in to get some yogurt.

01:09:55.000 I have a mask, because you have to, otherwise it's illegal.

01:09:58.000 This lady who's my age has a mask, and I'm walking past her to get yogurt, and she stops, panics, and leaps into the next aisle. 1.00

01:10:07.000 Oh my god.

01:10:08.000 And then when I go to check out, they have a big sign like, it is with extreme sadness that we have to inform you, due to the coronavirus, we are not accepting reusable bags at this time.

01:10:20.000 And then when you go to the coffee shop, it is with extreme sadness that we tell you that we are not accepting reusable cups at this time.

01:10:28.000 And then I go to the airport, and I go, you know what?

01:10:30.000 Oh, hey, listen.

01:10:30.000 Oh, hold on a second.

01:10:32.000 A flushless urinal?

01:10:33.000 How'd you figure that out?

01:10:34.000 By the way, there's no secret to it. 0.99

01:10:36.000 Your piss just stays there. 0.99

01:10:38.000 It just pools there. 1.00

01:10:40.000 Even the sports bars put an ice or peanut shells or some sh**. 0.97

01:10:44.000 So I go to a flushless urinal, and I'm like, well, that's kind of gross. 0.89

01:10:47.000 And then I'm like, well, I'm going to go wash my hands, and sing happy birthday twice, and happy birthday to, oh!

01:10:53.000 Happy, oh!

01:10:54.000 And the sink shuts off, because it's a green sink.

01:10:56.000 And I can't use paper towels, because it's a blow dryer.

01:10:59.000 When it comes down to saving human lives, well, unless we have to get rid of the absurdity of the plastic, the reusable bags, which, by the way, are worse for the environment, and the reusable cups, we're not going to do that anymore.

01:11:08.000 What about the?

01:11:09.000 What about following the CDC handwashing guidelines?

01:11:12.000 I can't do it.

01:11:13.000 It's not humanly possible.

01:11:15.000 What about the flushless urinals?

01:11:17.000 Hey, no more flushing, no more running water, that's progress?

01:11:20.000 How about I piss my name into a tree?

01:11:22.000 Is that progress?

01:11:23.000 That's skill. 0.93

01:11:24.000 This is what the left would see when they see the evolution of man going up, going up, and then down to a squatty potty, and then eventually it's made of hemp, and then there's s*** in a hole in the ground. 0.90

01:11:32.000 That's progress.

01:11:34.000 And we're in San Francisco.

01:11:35.000 So when we're talking about this, yeah, listen, my position, and I think everyone here on climate change is not, there's no such thing as climate change.

01:11:42.000 No, listen, I think the Earth has warmed.

01:11:44.000 I think that humans may be contributing a significant amount to it.

01:11:48.000 As to whether it will have catastrophic results, I'm not entirely sure.

01:11:51.000 As to the proposed global legislation that would kill people undeniably, expecting, of course, China to play ball, which they've vocally expressed they will not.

01:11:59.000 No, I don't believe that politically it will make any difference.

01:12:02.000 And, as it relates to coronavirus, I believe it will lie to, or at the very least provide misinformation, certainly from China, certainly from experts who said we're going to have 2 million people dead.

01:12:08.000 I believe it will shut down the economy, based on statistics that couldn't exactly be observed.

01:12:12.000 You know what is observable?

01:12:13.000 You know what's 100% observable?

01:12:15.000 Joblessness!

01:12:16.000 People not making any money!

01:12:17.000 Yeah.

01:12:18.000 Right?

01:12:18.000 Suicide's going up.

01:12:19.000 Alcoholism going up.

01:12:20.000 There's no doubt about that.

01:12:21.000 So when you folks want to say, hey, we deny the experts.

01:12:24.000 By the way, Burks, not an expert.

01:12:26.000 Only Fauci.

01:12:27.000 Only Geppetto. 0.95

01:12:29.000 I will wear it proudly.

01:12:31.000 Sure, I'm skeptical of the Kyoto Accord.

01:12:34.000 Sorry, no, Paris Protocol.

01:12:36.000 Paris Agreement.

01:12:37.000 I'm skeptical of that.

01:12:38.000 No, it's not a court.

01:12:39.000 You're wrong.

01:12:39.000 You're Asian.

01:12:40.000 You should know it.

01:12:40.000 I know that's not Chinese, but it was Kyoto.

01:12:43.000 Civic?

01:12:44.000 Honda. Oh, I got a joke. Okay, go ahead. I wasn't a good I was on a roll. None of this was good

01:12:51.000 I liked your role, but I'm gonna interrupt it When you talk about whether or not you're gonna have

01:12:57.000 climate deniers and you have folks who say they're for the climate in this environmental

01:13:01.000 Change, you know what the basics are when you take what they want to a logical extension

01:13:05.000 You cannot have jobs.

01:13:07.000 Jobs are a thing, the advance of technology, the mining for precious materials to be able to use in the technology that is actually being used to make ventilators or life-saving technology.

01:13:17.000 All that requires... Also solar panels.

01:13:19.000 Yeah, solar panels.

01:13:20.000 They're not made from sunshine and fleshless urinals.

01:13:23.000 Exactly.

01:13:24.000 All of those things require a use of the environment.

01:13:26.000 There's no question that we need to do it in a safe way, and certainly in a safe way to protect human lives.

01:13:32.000 But without any question, we have to be able to continue this march of progress in a direction that allows for using the environment, whereas the green movement is unquestionably against jobs, against economies, against communities, and against not just our nation, but against any nation.

01:13:49.000 But what's so funny to me is they talk about, you know, this global economy, right?

01:13:52.000 We are all one.

01:13:53.000 We are the world.

01:13:54.000 Hold hands and have all the flags.

01:13:55.000 Effectively an Amish quilt.

01:13:57.000 But really, when you think about it, okay, you look at the globe, and you look at the green movement, and then they have the gall to tell us, well, really the people most affected by environmental pollutants are minorities in the United States. 0.95

01:14:08.000 So the people most affected by coronavirus in the United States are black people. 0.90

01:14:11.000 Okay, hold on a second.

01:14:12.000 Who's most affected by the Green New Deal?

01:14:15.000 Who's most affected by the COTA protocol which would skyrocket energy costs, which for us is mildly inconvenient because you drive a crossover, but for someone in Zambia, or honestly you don't have to go that far, for someone in Mexico, if you can wander out of your Cancun booze cruise resort, they work all week just to get enough fuel so they can heat a can of beans on an old ironing board in a drum.

01:14:36.000 Who do you think is most affected by your green policy?

01:14:39.000 It's inconvenient for us.

01:14:40.000 It kills people in the third world who make $2 a month. 1.00

01:14:44.000 So they don't really care about the most vulnerable among us.

01:14:47.000 I don't want to say no one cares.

01:14:48.000 I'm saying the policies are not thoughtful of the most vulnerable among us because it is all a sacrifice at the altar of the greater good.

01:14:56.000 What's the greater good?

01:14:57.000 Well, the climate, the Earth.

01:14:58.000 It's more important than people.

01:15:00.000 What's the greater good with coronavirus?

01:15:01.000 Well, political expediency.

01:15:03.000 It's more important than people being autonomous and being able to make their own livings.

01:15:08.000 So, I won't, I'm not going to make any sacrifices that alter.

01:15:11.000 And as it relates to being anti-science, being, I'm a climate denier, as well as a coronavirus denier, I think you can look at the track record of where we've lined up on climate change, where we've lined up on coronavirus, and it's remarkable, remarkable that we've gotten very little wrong, honestly. 0.99

01:15:26.000 I was speaking from my gut, thinking this is going to come back to bite me in the ass. 0.98

01:15:28.000 Instead, I look like Nostradamus. 0.99

01:15:30.000 So I will wear that gouge loudly and proudly.

01:15:34.000 Yep, call me a science denier.

01:15:36.000 But I'll be sure to check in with Greta after this.

01:15:38.000 Guess right now, Hodgetwins coming up.

01:15:52.000 He looks so happy, doesn't he?

01:15:54.000 That's because he's about to be turned into a pair of Barbie sparkler glasses.

01:15:59.000 It's quite a process, but we're here to guide you through it.

01:16:02.000 First, Franklin will be removed from his shell.

01:16:04.000 Then, his shell will be crushed into hundreds of tiny pieces.

01:16:08.000 These pieces will then be melted together into a sheet and cut by a large machine into your designer frame of choice.

01:16:16.000 After a final quality check, Franklin is ready to be sent out to you, the customer.

01:16:21.000 Wondering what happens to the rest of Franklin?

01:16:23.000 Well, here at Barbie Sparker, we believe in giving back.

01:16:26.000 That's why for every pair of Barbie Sparker glasses ordered, we send one can of turtle soup to a Chinese homeless shelter of your choice.

01:16:34.000 Thanks Barbie Sparker.

01:16:35.000 And thank you, Franklin.

01:16:37.000 Thank you, Franklin.

01:16:39.000 I think everybody's gone.

01:16:53.000 Bye.

01:16:54.000 you Yeah, looks like everyone's gone in the back too.

01:16:59.000 I'll get the snacks and stuff if you want to fire up the projector.

01:17:02.000 Here you go.

01:17:11.000 Brought you beverage.

01:17:12.000 Oh, well thank you.

01:17:15.000 Have you seen this one yet?

01:17:16.000 Yeah, I've seen it like eight times, but I find something new each viewing.

01:18:39.000 What you talking about?

01:18:40.000 You're standing too close to that China man. 1.00

01:18:42.000 It's called Chinese virus for a reason. 1.00

01:18:46.000 I... I don't know if... Well, Mr. QBG knows you need to keep your distance, and the Wu Flu can't hurt you.

01:19:14.000 Thought I was the guy to make the dead.

01:19:15.000 No work shirt.

01:19:16.000 Mm-hmm.

01:19:17.000 Gonna like mail here.

01:19:18.000 Drink too much.

01:19:19.000 Guess they deserved it.

01:19:20.000 All right, very glad to have our next guest.

01:19:22.000 Yeah, it's been a little while.

01:19:23.000 Ah.

01:19:23.000 Spoiler alert.

01:19:25.000 It has been a little while.

01:19:26.000 They were supposed to be the finale on our CNN 4-hour livestream, but I went into my tirade against Chris Cuomo.

01:19:33.000 Because, you know, but here's the thing.

01:19:34.000 I only target the strong.

01:19:36.000 Because with Chris Cuomo, it doesn't happen by accident.

01:19:40.000 So, speaking of which, these next two guys would probably make Chris Cuomo look like a small child.

01:19:44.000 Probably would cry like one, too.

01:19:45.000 Peace, Prince.

01:19:45.000 You can follow them on the Twitter at Hodgetwins, and they have a YouTube channel now.

01:19:49.000 A few hundred thousand subscribers.

01:19:50.000 Doing really well.

01:19:51.000 Yeah, doing good.

01:19:52.000 Conservative twins, and it's the Hodgetwins on Facebook.

01:19:55.000 So many twins.

01:19:56.000 Kevin and Keith, how are you, sirs?

01:19:56.000 The Hodgetwins!

01:19:59.000 Hey, I'm doing good, man.

01:19:59.000 We're doing pretty good for some black guys.

01:20:02.000 I don't know.

01:20:02.000 Why'd you have to go to the race thing right away?

01:20:05.000 We are the world. 0.98

01:20:06.000 I'm a black supremacist. 0.84

01:20:08.000 Right. 0.94

01:20:09.000 Hey, which, never mind.

01:20:10.000 This is the first time I've seen you with a beard.

01:20:12.000 Is this because of the quarantine?

01:20:13.000 Or I thought you guys couldn't grow facial hair.

01:20:16.000 Um, I can.

01:20:16.000 I'm just Muslim now.

01:20:18.000 You ditched your slave name and joined the nation of Islam? 0.99

01:20:22.000 Yeah, I'm a black Muslim now. 0.99

01:20:26.000 Yeah, man.

01:20:26.000 I noticed this when I was in the drugstore, speaking of the racial thing.

01:20:31.000 There's an entire line of products for black men facial hair, like for razor bump, like

01:20:35.000 bump away and stuff.

01:20:37.000 That's a whole new world to me.

01:20:39.000 Yeah, man.

01:20:40.000 Yeah, please do not laugh at my pain.

01:20:44.000 Do you have to use that?

01:20:45.000 I'm actually picking something out this morning.

01:20:47.000 Yeah, I actually put on a coat of bump stuff this morning.

01:20:49.000 You know, since this whole COVID-Kung-Fu thing, all the bump fighters sold out. 1.00

01:20:55.000 Black people are so evil, man. 1.00

01:20:58.000 They just hoard it, all this stuff. 1.00

01:20:59.000 I go on OfferUp and let's go.

01:21:01.000 There's the bump fighter.

01:21:04.000 Is that it?

01:21:04.000 It's called Bump Fighter?

01:21:05.000 Hey, guys, guys, guys!

01:21:07.000 If you're good at selling a sponsor, don't do it for free.

01:21:10.000 Don't mention the name, and then we'll approach Bump Fighter and set it up. 0.98

01:21:14.000 So it's like a lacquer for black people's beards. 1.00

01:21:17.000 Yeah, man. 0.98

01:21:18.000 Yeah, I should be getting paid for this, huh?

01:21:21.000 You should be getting paid for this, yeah.

01:21:22.000 BumpFighter.

01:21:22.000 I mean, that's one hell of a sponsor.

01:21:24.000 That's tier A on YouTube.

01:21:26.000 You're in the premium category.

01:21:29.000 It's BumpFighter.

01:21:30.000 It's just Carlton from Fresh Prince who's doing this in the mirror.

01:21:33.000 And you're like, he's doing all that?

01:21:34.000 Alfonso.

01:21:35.000 I should have known you'd steal the job from Andres Alfonso.

01:21:39.000 Is that his name, Alfonso?

01:21:40.000 I have no idea.

01:21:41.000 I was so disappointed when I found out that Carlton was actually Carlton in real life.

01:21:47.000 You just hoped he was like a, you know, a black Daniel Day-Lewis, and you realize, no, he's a one-note actor. 0.99

01:21:56.000 But he'll make a killing in Hallmark Films.

01:22:00.000 Okay, so before I want to talk about Ahmaud Arbery, because you guys released some videos on this, and I want to be clear for people who are out there.

01:22:08.000 Watch the whole videos in context, right?

01:22:10.000 So I know that this is a show, so I have to run a clip, but I encourage you to watch the full videos in context, because if you look at people who've covered the videos, they've taken them out of context, people get really mad.

01:22:20.000 But if you look at the comments in the full videos, people go, oh, this is pretty balanced and objective.

01:22:25.000 So that being said, here is a clip, which may be offensive, but funny.

01:22:32.000 Hey, look.

01:22:33.000 Be honest, everybody.

01:22:34.000 Just don't say nothing racist.

01:22:36.000 Oh, it's gonna be racist.

01:22:38.000 Look, just to be honest, everybody.

01:22:40.000 I mean, it's not racist.

01:22:41.000 This is just what I observed in my lifetime.

01:22:44.000 Okay.

01:22:45.000 Be honest, everybody.

01:22:46.000 Black or white or Asian, Hispanic, whatever.

01:22:51.000 Think about this.

01:22:52.000 When was the last time you seen a black man jogging in your neighborhood?

01:22:59.000 I mean, playing basketball and football does not count. 0.99

01:23:03.000 You take that ball away, you just kill that black man's motivation for jogging. 1.00

01:23:07.000 Look, I've lived in white neighborhoods, I've lived in black neighborhoods. 0.99

01:23:11.000 The only time I've seen a black man jogging is when he's running from somebody. 0.98

01:23:15.000 It was for life preservation.

01:23:17.000 It was to get his heart rate up.

01:23:19.000 Hey, we don't swim either.

01:23:21.000 I mean, I go to the gym, I see black people lifting weights and playing basketball. 0.91

01:23:24.000 I've never seen a black man in the pool.

01:23:27.000 I mean, jogging and swimming is not our thing.

01:23:30.000 That's racist, but it's a good point. 0.99

01:23:33.000 I thought your gig at the Apollo was cancelled to COVID, but I stand corrected.

01:23:38.000 So, let me be clear here.

01:23:42.000 You guys got death threats for that?

01:23:44.000 Uh, yeah. 0.98

01:23:45.000 I'm a bunch of black folks.

01:23:47.000 Oh, of course.

01:23:48.000 And, I mean, just to clarify, I mean, Ahmaud Arbery's in his early 20s.

01:23:53.000 Black kids at that age, they don't, for exercise, they don't go jogging. 1.00

01:23:57.000 They lift weights. 0.76

01:23:58.000 They play ball. 0.95

01:23:59.000 Yeah, I mean, just like black folks at his age, most of them hate country music. 1.00

01:24:03.000 It's just an observation that we, uh, took.

01:24:09.000 That's because if you listen to country music, half the singers sound like you.

01:24:13.000 Because I said he was running down the street with a TV.

01:24:16.000 I was joking towards the two white guys at first because I didn't have all the facts.

01:24:21.000 I was like, why did y'all stop?

01:24:23.000 Did you see him running down the street with a TV on his back? 0.89

01:24:26.000 That was a joke towards the white gentleman, not the black guy. 0.62

01:24:29.000 No, and I want to be really clear.

01:24:30.000 That was very funny, and that wasn't about Ahmaud Arbery.

01:24:33.000 If you watch it, you guys said, these are the facts that we know, and you laid out, and you even did an update when the video came out.

01:24:39.000 And I have to be, uh, full disclosure here, you know, last week we were working on taping sketches, And we were working behind the scenes because we did the Mug Club Quarantine Month, so I shut off from news that I can focus on some of the work that needs to come in.

01:24:50.000 And it was hard for me to keep track or to get info when I was searching on this.

01:24:54.000 So I want to be clear for people to know there.

01:24:56.000 There's a joke, right, separate from, and then you guys, I think we're pretty fair in covering the Ahmaud Arbery case.

01:25:02.000 So let people know who don't exactly know, because it's hard for me, and this is how I make a living, to kind of navigate my way through it.

01:25:09.000 What exactly happened here?

01:25:10.000 Where are we now?

01:25:13.000 Well... From the beginning, I mean... Don't be bashful now!

01:25:19.000 The death threat genie's already out of the bottle.

01:25:22.000 Let me do some talking.

01:25:23.000 Clearly you can see him walking into the neighborhood.

01:25:25.000 He stops.

01:25:26.000 He looks around.

01:25:27.000 No jogger does that.

01:25:28.000 And then he sprints in somebody's house.

01:25:30.000 I don't know if a dog was at them or somebody called him the n-word, but from the video, it looks like he's casing a joint.

01:25:36.000 He runs in the house.

01:25:37.000 He stays in there for three minutes.

01:25:39.000 The neighbors see him, spook him, he takes off running, they go chase.

01:25:43.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:25:44.000 I mean you just don't, somebody yelling at you, you just don't run out of the house.

01:25:47.000 Right, you know what I'm saying?

01:25:48.000 Yeah.

01:25:49.000 And they matched it up with the 911 tape.

01:25:51.000 The attempt to arrest him, he actually charges the guy with a shotgun.

01:25:54.000 At that point, Yeah.

01:25:55.000 Either charge him with aggravated assault.

01:25:58.000 You could even charge him with strong arm robbery because he's trying to take possession of his shotgun.

01:26:02.000 And at that point in the video, it's a life and death struggle

01:26:05.000 because of his action, because of the three felonies he just committed. 1.00

01:26:09.000 They have every right to shoot and kill him. 0.99

01:26:11.000 So that's all I'm trying to say. 0.99

01:26:13.000 I still don't know who actually shot him.

01:26:15.000 They said it was close range.

01:26:17.000 It was the shotgun.

01:26:17.000 It was the shotgun?

01:26:18.000 Yeah, but we really don't know if the gun went off by mistake or anything.

01:26:24.000 It was just one shot.

01:26:26.000 Well, the thing to me is this is a very unfortunate situation

01:26:29.000 all around.

01:26:30.000 But we don't have all of the information.

01:26:32.000 I will say this.

01:26:35.000 Obviously, it would be better if the guy had not been shot.

01:26:38.000 And obviously, if someone comes up with a shotgun, it's natural to react and defend yourself.

01:26:44.000 But something that changes that, which we don't know yet, did the guy who called the police So they obviously don't, it doesn't seem like they were planning on shooting an unarmed black man if they call the police and say, Hey, we're here.

01:26:56.000 Please go take care of this.

01:26:57.000 Please follow this.

01:26:58.000 It seems to me like maybe they approached him and said, what are you doing?

01:27:01.000 Asked him some questions and then he panicked and attacked them.

01:27:04.000 Two different scenarios.

01:27:05.000 Okay.

01:27:06.000 A guy who's maybe standing.

01:27:07.000 social distancing, standing six, seven feet away with a shotgun aimed at the ground like,

01:27:11.000 hey man, we've had some break-ins here, what are you doing?

01:27:14.000 You mind answering some questions?

01:27:15.000 At that point, it'd be, oh, okay, oh, I'm sorry, sorry, yeah, I was just jogging.

01:27:19.000 Or if the guy approached him with a shotgun at point blank, like, what are you doing,

01:27:22.000 boy?

01:27:23.000 You know?

01:27:24.000 Then the guy has the right to defend himself.

01:27:26.000 But we don't know that yet.

01:27:27.000 And based on what I hear from the 911 call, it doesn't... Could they be vigilantes?

01:27:32.000 Guys who are tough guys?

01:27:34.000 Maybe.

01:27:35.000 But we don't know.

01:27:36.000 And that's what's so concerning to me is we don't know and right away you go, well then we're going to have to fill in the blanks like Trayvon Martin and Brown.

01:27:43.000 Are we going to wait?

01:27:45.000 Yeah.

01:27:45.000 I mean, personally, if I'm going to commit a hate crime, I'm not calling the cops.

01:27:48.000 Yeah.

01:27:49.000 Right, typically.

01:27:50.000 Yeah.

01:27:51.000 That's a good point.

01:27:54.000 You distilled everything that I said.

01:27:56.000 I was long-winded and yours was far better.

01:27:59.000 And another thing, if I'm running, I mean, the media is saying that he was just jogging

01:28:04.000 through a neighborhood trying to get some exercise.

01:28:07.000 The only time I saw Ahmaud jogging was into the house and out of the house from a scene of a crime.

01:28:15.000 Right.

01:28:16.000 That's not jogging.

01:28:17.000 I don't know if this is true or not, but they say he was 12 miles from his house. 0.92

01:28:21.000 This guy's got to be in damn good shape. 0.99

01:28:23.000 If he jogged 12 miles to his house and he's fit to jog back, that's a damn marathon. 0.99

01:28:28.000 Well, that explains why he's walking in the video. 0.98

01:28:30.000 Maybe he was tired.

01:28:32.000 Right.

01:28:32.000 Yes.

01:28:33.000 It doesn't make sense.

01:28:34.000 All the evidence that I see in this video, him, Stop and look around, sprinting in the house, and then being spooked and people, and he takes off running.

01:28:43.000 And the thing that, still his fate in my book, and I don't see how anybody can defend this, when he runs around the truck, he could have kept straight running, but he decided to run into the McMichael's son and grab his shotgun.

01:28:58.000 He actually charged him.

01:29:00.000 I mean, I hate it that the young man lost his life, but come on.

01:29:04.000 Yeah, I will say that in your video you said that you would tell your sons that if ever they were approached with a gun and someone said, you know, hey, we call the police to wait for the police to try and de-escalate the situation.

01:29:16.000 To play devil's advocate a little bit here, I will say, listen, there's information that we have that he didn't, we know that these guys called the cops, the father and son, I keep forgetting it's like some, McMichaels, McMichaels?

01:29:27.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:29:28.000 We know that they called the police officers.

01:29:30.000 That being said, Ahmad didn't.

01:29:32.000 So there is, there could be a scenario, for example, let's say it's, it could be your son, it could be anybody, where someone says, hey, we've called the cops, stay where you are.

01:29:38.000 And you could think, what if they're trying to kidnap me?

01:29:40.000 I don't know that they've called the cops.

01:29:42.000 And that could be a fight or flight response.

01:29:43.000 So that's why I say, we don't know as to whether the reaction was, it could have been appropriate.

01:29:49.000 We know that they did call the cops, but he didn't know that at the time.

01:29:52.000 So is that at all something that sort of comes into play here that, why would he trust they've called the cops?

01:29:57.000 Yeah.

01:29:58.000 Yeah.

01:29:58.000 Who knows?

01:29:59.000 Yeah.

01:30:00.000 It's, uh, you know, that's the only thing is, but I understand, I will, okay, look,

01:30:04.000 white privilege tech here.

01:30:05.000 My friend, Johnny, well, we used to do this after work in construction.

01:30:08.000 We would walk on the golf course in St. Lambert, uh, in Quebec, and, um, we would spot the

01:30:13.000 houses that were empty and had pools.

01:30:16.000 And what we would do is we would hop the fence and cool off at the end of the day in a pool.

01:30:20.000 Now, victimless trespassing, absolutely.

01:30:22.000 But we predetermined that if someone came out, we would immediately be apologetic.

01:30:27.000 And I'm so sorry.

01:30:28.000 Now again, if some guy comes out with a shotgun, what are you doing here?

01:30:31.000 I'm not going to go, hold on, let me get my towel, and walk out and assault them.

01:30:33.000 I'm going to say, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I totally have no business being in your pool, but I'm hot and I'm poor.

01:30:38.000 But if they come into the water right up with me with a spear gun, then I might fight for my life. 1.00

01:30:45.000 So, you know, that being said, looking back, probably not the best decision.

01:30:51.000 That's it.

01:30:52.000 I had no question for you.

01:30:53.000 So what do you think we'll be seeing?

01:30:55.000 Are you not hearing me?

01:30:57.000 What?

01:30:57.000 Oh, my God.

01:30:58.000 For crying out loud.

01:31:00.000 Oh, no.

01:31:00.000 Are you still there?

01:31:02.000 Hodge twins?

01:31:03.000 You can't hear me?

01:31:03.000 Yeah, we're here.

01:31:04.000 Jeez.

01:31:05.000 Yeah, we're here. 0.97

01:31:05.000 Well, yeah, that sucked. 0.97

01:31:08.000 What happened? 0.92

01:31:09.000 Did you mute and forget to unmute?

01:31:12.000 What happened?

01:31:13.000 No, you were talking, didn't you?

01:31:18.000 And we're just like, what's going on?

01:31:22.000 Wait, how was I?

01:31:23.000 Can you show me again?

01:31:28.000 It's uncanny.

01:31:30.000 So I just say that upon retrospect, it was a bad decision for me to make.

01:31:34.000 What do you think we'll see as this sort of unfurls here, this case?

01:31:39.000 I mean, I think everybody's so biased.

01:31:43.000 People are like, whoever's standable for Mark, they're gonna stand with him even if these guys are found not guilty.

01:31:49.000 I mean, I just think the situation could have been handled totally different.

01:31:53.000 I mean, I have a gun, I have a CCW, I use it to preserve life.

01:31:56.000 I'm not out here trying to play Rambo and arrest people.

01:31:59.000 The most I would have did in that situation, if I felt I had to do something, was to call the cops and maybe follow them until the cops show up to grab them.

01:32:06.000 That's the only thing I would have did.

01:32:08.000 Yeah.

01:32:08.000 I think that's how the situation should have been handled.

01:32:10.000 But this guy McMichael, he's a retired cop, he's no ordinary citizen, so he's arrested plenty of people.

01:32:15.000 I mean, it's kind of hard for me to tell this man not not I mean what to do in his own neighborhood.

01:32:22.000 He's under law, he can make a sense of the rest.

01:32:25.000 Personally, I wouldn't have done it.

01:32:27.000 Because whenever you confront a criminal or somebody that's committed a crime or

01:32:31.000 whatever, you don't know how they're gonna react.

01:32:33.000 Yeah, it's one thing for a cop to stop somebody and get a reaction.

01:32:36.000 You don't have no uniform, you don't have no badge.

01:32:39.000 You may have scared the guy, and that's why you acted the way you did.

01:32:42.000 That's why I would have waited for the cops, somebody in uniform to make the arrest.

01:32:46.000 Yeah, but somebody reasonable?

01:32:48.000 If I'd have went in somebody's house, I know I'm breaking the law.

01:32:51.000 If I take off running and somebody gives chase, I'm going to stop.

01:32:54.000 That's what a reasonable person would have done if they were scared, but I don't know what this man was thinking when he Yeah, I think we're going to have to wait.

01:33:04.000 I think there are a couple of lessons that can be learned right now.

01:33:07.000 If people are watching, we're going to go to a web extended and talk fitness and quarantine in a little bit.

01:33:11.000 I think that two lessons that I see from this, before we have all the information, is try and remove ego from the equation.

01:33:16.000 Because we can see that with, we look at Trayvon, there's an ego thing there. 0.94

01:33:19.000 If he didn't get on top of Zimmerman and punch him, Zimmerman's a dick, we know that now, but he'd be alive. 0.95

01:33:25.000 If Mike Brown had gotten out of the street, like Darren Wilson requested, instead of punching a cop to prove, he'd be alive right now. 0.91

01:33:31.000 In this case, let's, we don't know if it was ego driven, but I think for everyone out there, don't let ego make your decisions when you're in a pressure cooker, when you don't, when you're in a volatile situation.

01:33:40.000 And the other thing I think, Don't bring a firearm out of your holster, don't ever bring it into the equation, unless you understand that that immediately escalates it, and there's a strong likelihood, or a strong-ger likelihood, that you might have to use it.

01:33:56.000 I think everyone needs to follow that.

01:33:57.000 Like, if you're calling the cops, at that point, call the cops, wait for the cops to come, keep trailing the people, let the cops do their job.

01:34:03.000 Don't call the cops, and then also show a gun, because you never know how someone's going to react, and I think that's understandable.

01:34:09.000 Right?

01:34:10.000 I got one for you, Steven.

01:34:12.000 In all three of these situations, I got a good idea.

01:34:16.000 Just don't hit anybody or attack anybody.

01:34:19.000 All three of these men will be still alive.

01:34:21.000 That's a good point, too.

01:34:22.000 Yeah.

01:34:22.000 Generally, as a rule of thumb, don't violently assault anyone.

01:34:28.000 Period.

01:34:30.000 I'll be sure to get your words of wisdom to Chris Cuomo.

01:34:32.000 We'll see if he lets it absorb.

01:34:33.000 Maybe via osmosis.

01:34:35.000 Okay, it is Conservative Twins on YouTube, the Hodge Twins on Facebook.

01:34:39.000 For people who are watching this on YouTube, we're going to go to WebExtended exclusive to ModClub.

01:34:43.000 Stay tuned.

01:34:44.000 And a one, and a two, and a two, and a three, P-O-G-O. 0.99

01:34:50.000 This is Bert.

01:34:51.000 Okay, so I've showed you how to make pour over, aero press, but some of you are saying,

01:34:55.000 yeah, but I like my Keurig machine.

01:34:57.000 I don't like you, and I don't want your money.

01:35:00.000 But, if you are married to a Keurig machine, I do have some hacks that will get the best out of it that you can.

01:35:08.000 First thing is, of course, you need good coffee to start with.

01:35:11.000 And there you have it.

01:35:11.000 BlackRifleCoffee.com slash Crowder.

01:35:14.000 Enter the promo code Crowder, you get 20% off.

01:35:16.000 These cups typically have 11 grams of coffee, which will make all the difference in the world.

01:35:20.000 I'm gonna weigh this for you so we can see.

01:35:23.000 You can see 11.2.

01:35:24.000 I actually left some in there.

01:35:25.000 It's closer to 12 grams with these Black Rifle cups.

01:35:27.000 First thing I'm gonna do is run some hot water through this machine into my cup.

01:35:32.000 Now, why does that help?

01:35:33.000 A lot of these machines don't get hot enough, so running some hot water through it first will prime the mechanism.

01:35:39.000 All right, now that it's ready, I'm going to put the round in.

01:35:43.000 Close it up tight.

01:35:44.000 Now here's the tip.

01:35:45.000 The biggest problem with these Keurig machines is that the water runs through too quickly with the coffee.

01:35:49.000 It often runs through, sometimes 45 seconds or a minute, and people think, oh my coffee, my coffee is so fast in the morning. 0.98

01:35:54.000 Sure, but you're drinking s***. 0.99

01:35:56.000 You are drinking s***. 0.97

01:35:59.000 The good news is, I have a trick that'll help improve it. 0.98

01:36:01.000 What I do is I hit brew for just enough time for it to saturate the coffee grounds, and once it starts to drip even a little bit, I'm gonna stop it.

01:36:10.000 You're gonna see a little bit of a trickle.

01:36:11.000 I let that saturate for a little bit of time.

01:36:13.000 Now that it's been sitting for a little bit of time, I'm going to make one six ounce cup, and now I'm gonna hit brew.

01:36:23.000 We've just eliminated the variables that typically make a really crappy cup of coffee for most of these.

01:36:29.000 Namely, more coffee.

01:36:31.000 It's fresh roasted from Black Rifle.

01:36:32.000 You have 11 to 12 grams as opposed to 8 in most cups.

01:36:35.000 The temperature is hot enough.

01:36:37.000 And we've increased the contact time between the water and the coffee for something that is... Yeah, it's alright. 0.99

01:36:51.000 I am not a violent person, but I would kill all your children for a lot of these cigars. 0.93

01:36:59.000 Can Steven really be trusted? 0.99

01:37:02.000 Just say no to Steven Crowder and Mug Club.

01:37:06.000 Paid for by MomskinsMugClub.com This is a video of the MomskinsMugClub.com page.

01:37:10.000 This is a video of the MomskinsMugClub.com page.

01:37:41.000 Buy yours today at LotterwithGrindershop.com I'm going to be doing a video on how to make a cool looking

01:37:46.000 box. I'll link it in the description.

01:37:46.000 I'm using a 1.5mm drill bit to drill a hole in the bottom of the box.

01:38:33.000 Oh, that was nice.

01:38:34.000 Even under water.

01:38:35.000 Yeah.

01:38:36.000 It's dedication.

01:38:37.000 With that different shades of gray background.

01:38:39.000 You know what I'm talking about?

01:38:39.000 You just send it out.

01:38:40.000 All you had to do was school pictures.

01:38:42.000 Did you ever do that?

01:38:42.000 School photos?

01:38:44.000 What a horrible experience that was.

01:38:46.000 The experience was horrible.

01:38:47.000 Did I ever tell you they did that at our high school for our graduation photos and they brought in like a makeup artist?

01:38:51.000 No.

01:38:52.000 For kids?

01:38:53.000 Well, high school.

01:38:54.000 Senior year.

01:38:55.000 By the way, extended interview, of course, with Hodge twins will be available for those who are Mug Club members. 0.84

01:38:59.000 We start Good Morning Mug Club next week, and we will be in the Michigan next Friday with a peaceful legal protest to reopen the economy.

01:39:09.000 That's true.

01:39:10.000 Yeah, they brought in makeup for my senior year picture, and the worst part about it— Just for you.

01:39:16.000 That's almost the opposite of the direction of this story, which is why it was just shattering to my self-confidence, because you have to stand in line and watch them doll up everybody else.

01:39:28.000 And you see like, oh, that's three people up.

01:39:31.000 She's getting about 10 minutes.

01:39:33.000 Oh, OK, that's Mr. Springer.

01:39:35.000 He's getting about, OK, two minutes.

01:39:38.000 And then I just had horrible, like, pizza-like acne.

01:39:42.000 And she clearly just looked at me and went, And just grabbed a, what do you call it, powder puff of things? 1.00

01:39:47.000 Powder?

01:39:47.000 But I noticed that everyone else had like spray, and brushes, and lip gloss, and with me it was just like powder.

01:39:54.000 Done!

01:39:55.000 Just gave up.

01:39:57.000 Wait, wait, snap.

01:39:59.000 Yeah, just gave up.

01:40:00.000 And I don't think to this day that it's available anywhere else.

01:40:03.000 Now watch, I'm gonna go pull it. 0.87

01:40:04.000 It's disgusting. 0.90

01:40:06.000 I was very gross. 0.88

01:40:08.000 It's a wonder that I don't have pockmarks worse than the Best Friend and Truman Show. 0.66

01:40:13.000 Only Olin Mills knows.

01:40:15.000 Is that his name?

01:40:16.000 I have no idea.

01:40:17.000 Thank you guys.

01:40:18.000 It was fun.

01:40:19.000 Glad being back.

01:40:19.000 I wanted to talk with you guys about something a little bit.

01:40:24.000 Let me sort of preface this because I did ask him and he said it was okay to talk about our meeting.

01:40:29.000 I did actually make the trip to Leelanau County, Michigan.

01:40:32.000 We talked about the sheriff.

01:40:34.000 A long time ago.

01:40:35.000 Not a long time ago.

01:40:36.000 It feels like a long time ago.

01:40:37.000 A few weeks ago.

01:40:39.000 I believe his name is pronounced Borkovic.

01:40:40.000 Cherish.

01:40:41.000 Sheriff Cherish.

01:40:42.000 Cherish Borkovic. 0.96

01:40:43.000 He was horrible. 0.93

01:40:43.000 His parents hated him. 0.93

01:40:45.000 His parents named him Cherish.

01:40:46.000 Very sad.

01:40:47.000 They just wanted every single conversation to start with Cherish?

01:40:51.000 Cherish?

01:40:52.000 Sheriff Borkovich there in Leelanau County.

01:40:55.000 I made the trip out there because I know he had caught a lot of flack.

01:40:58.000 He was the one in the media who said that he wasn't going to enforce the unconstitutional portions of Governor Whitmer's orders.

01:41:04.000 Now I want to be clear.

01:41:05.000 We were sitting more than six feet apart.

01:41:08.000 We both had masks on, practicing social distancing.

01:41:11.000 Of course he supports that and he's talked about that with his statements.

01:41:16.000 What he showed me were all of these letters from people before he issued his statement.

01:41:20.000 Like, hey, I'm a perch fisherman.

01:41:22.000 Am I going to get arrested because I have a motor on my boat?

01:41:25.000 Or, hey, you know what?

01:41:26.000 I'm going to this park and I want to make sure that I'm not arrested because I have an anniversary with my wife because people are getting fined and arrested.

01:41:32.000 And what he was saying was, listen, I'm not going to do that.

01:41:35.000 I don't have the authority to do that as a sheriff, but I will break it up.

01:41:39.000 I will break it up, and I will tell you to be sensible, but I'm not going to put you in cuffs.

01:41:44.000 I'm not going to give you a fine.

01:41:45.000 And that was blown out of proportion, of course, misinterpreted.

01:41:47.000 So, had a long conversation with this guy.

01:41:50.000 Really accomplished guy, too.

01:41:51.000 Really just a sweet guy, and people there, you know, love him in that county.

01:41:56.000 And we were talking about So he mentioned this because he works with a lot of

01:42:00.000 veterans and he said, I see a lot of these young people, especially now in Michigan who are

01:42:04.000 smoking dope and they need it because of their, the excuse they always use is anxiety.

01:42:08.000 That's because you know, the legalization in Michigan now, and there's all this zoning

01:42:11.000 and they're calling it the cannabis lottery.

01:42:13.000 And he said, you know, I have a, I don't know if he mentioned his brother or his friend.

01:42:17.000 One, my grandfather came back from World War II missing a leg.

01:42:23.000 You don't think he had anxiety?

01:42:24.000 I had a friend from Vietnam who came back and was missing an eye.

01:42:28.000 And so don't talk to me about anxiety.

01:42:31.000 I'm referring to millennials.

01:42:32.000 And I said, you know what?

01:42:33.000 Hold on a second.

01:42:34.000 Let me pause at something for a minute.

01:42:36.000 And we ultimately came to more of an understanding.

01:42:38.000 I think people need to understand that, yeah, I think a lot of millennials out there, I think a lot of young people do suffer from anxiety.

01:42:45.000 And I do think that they can have anxiety that is worse than people from the greatest generation, you know, people who were out there in World War II.

01:42:51.000 And let me explain to you why.

01:42:53.000 And this is why I think we're seeing a lot of it with coronavirus.

01:42:56.000 You really shouldn't be that anxious if you believe that it's a period of two months, or even if it's a period of a year, and things will go back to normal and basically stay home and collect a check.

01:43:07.000 That shouldn't be super anxiety-inducing.

01:43:09.000 Certainly not as anxiety-inducing as storming the beaches of Normandy.

01:43:13.000 But you know what I see, and I get a lot of letters from you guys and girls out there, and gals, guys and gals, you got the horse right here!

01:43:20.000 Don't let me get into Ethel Merman.

01:43:26.000 Anxiety is often a symptom of purposelessness.

01:43:30.000 That's what makes people anxious.

01:43:32.000 And I tell you, that's why a lot of business owners themselves are very anxious, because you don't have someone telling you what to do.

01:43:39.000 You have to make up what it is to do.

01:43:42.000 I know, AudioEd, you said during the Mug Club quarantine month, you would often be so tired sometimes at the end of the day, because you would have to have all these conversations and direct people, and didn't always have as much to show for it physically.

01:43:53.000 Sure, yeah.

01:43:54.000 Well, I didn't write these jokes, but I had to make sure that these trains ran on time.

01:43:59.000 And that can create a lot of anxiety for people because, wrongfully so in that case, I mean, sometimes people feel like, well, I haven't accomplished anything.

01:44:06.000 But you see that with a lot of young people.

01:44:08.000 They're going out into the world, and yeah, sure, I think it's valid.

01:44:11.000 I think rather than just dismissing millennials, a lot of people do this, I think it's wrong to say, OK, boomer.

01:44:15.000 And the only reason people say, OK, boomer, is because really you have a generation that was flower power hippies taking daisies and rifles, and now they elected Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump.

01:44:22.000 They're mad at boomers. 1.00

01:44:23.000 They're mad at the hippies because they want to be San Francisco retreads today.

01:44:27.000 So let's be really clear.

01:44:28.000 I hate the OK boomer thing, but I also hate it when people just dismiss millennials as, oh, they're entitled.

01:44:32.000 What do they have to be anxious about?

01:44:34.000 Well, they have a few things to be anxious about on a very observable level, right?

01:44:37.000 They are going out into a far more crowded, more competitive workspace.

01:44:42.000 But to get more specific, I hear this a lot where they say, you know, when I grew up, we didn't have these phones, we didn't have smartphones, we didn't have all this access to technology, we had to go off to war.

01:44:51.000 Do I think that a millennial who's leaving college with a gender studies degree, or with a liberal arts degree, or with a creative arts degree, or German poetry, or underwater basket weaving, take your pick, do I think that them leaving college today, living at home, not gainfully employed, Is it possible that they are more anxious than the 16-year-old who was drafted fighting in World War II?

01:45:14.000 Absolutely.

01:45:15.000 Absolutely.

01:45:16.000 Now, that's not to say that their task or their life is any more important.

01:45:19.000 No.

01:45:20.000 In fact, the exact opposite.

01:45:22.000 And that's what I think people are missing.

01:45:24.000 We think we're trying to solve this problem of... Anxiety is a symptom of purposelessness.

01:45:29.000 People are anxious right now because they're floundering.

01:45:32.000 They're not going to work.

01:45:33.000 They don't have anything to do.

01:45:34.000 You often think, man, if I didn't have to work, I'd be able to stay home and sit on the couch and watch TV.

01:45:38.000 That's fun for a couple of days.

01:45:40.000 And then that anxiety, that worthlessness comes into effect because human beings were

01:45:45.000 made to work.

01:45:46.000 Human beings were made to fulfill a purpose.

01:45:48.000 Let me ask you this.

01:45:49.000 Do you think that when someone, for example, was in a foxhole, World War II, out there,

01:45:53.000 take your pick, somewhere across Europe, right, with the fight in the axis there in our campaign,

01:45:58.000 do you think they were sitting there going like, man, I just don't know if what I'm doing

01:46:01.000 is making an impact?

01:46:04.000 No, you knew what you had to do.

01:46:06.000 Is it scary?

01:46:07.000 Sure.

01:46:08.000 Is it terrifying?

01:46:09.000 Absolutely.

01:46:10.000 My grandfather-in-law was a bombardier in World War II.

01:46:13.000 I watched people cry at his funeral who were soldiers folding up the flag.

01:46:16.000 They're not supposed to.

01:46:17.000 It was that powerful.

01:46:18.000 But those people knew what they were doing.

01:46:21.000 They knew what they were trying to accomplish.

01:46:23.000 There were a lot of Americans.

01:46:24.000 They were referred to as playboys, right?

01:46:26.000 Non-interventionists.

01:46:27.000 Then Pearl Harbor happened.

01:46:28.000 All right. 0.99

01:46:29.000 Now you got to deal with some sh**. 0.98

01:46:32.000 Japan and Germany, so they knew this is a righteous fight. 0.98

01:46:35.000 I may lose my life, but I'm doing it for a valid reason.

01:46:39.000 And I think a lot of people misinterpret this where they go, oh my gosh, the higher the danger, the higher the risk, the more anxiety.

01:46:46.000 No!

01:46:47.000 Not necessarily, because a portion of that equation is purpose.

01:46:52.000 And if you know that, hey, there's a chance you might lose your life here, but it's because you're trying to stop the greatest evil that's ever happened in humanity from marching across the rest of Europe and then finally making it across the pond, well, guess what?

01:47:07.000 You're willing to pay that price.

01:47:10.000 And it's not anxiety because you don't know what's coming next.

01:47:13.000 It's anxiety because you've accepted what's coming next.

01:47:17.000 And it's anxiety because you want to make sure that the people you love back home are provided for.

01:47:21.000 That's very different from, I'm anxious because I don't know what to do.

01:47:25.000 And that's a problem that we need to solve.

01:47:26.000 And that's why I see people like Jaco, and sometimes this show, and we do the life advice, seems to help people.

01:47:32.000 Because coddling folks, making sure they don't have a big red marker on any test, that doesn't make people more confident.

01:47:38.000 What it does is it ill-prepares them for the real world.

01:47:41.000 Think about this, we had a generation, let's look at the greatest generation, that's what we call them, World War II.

01:47:46.000 We had people who went to school, right?

01:47:49.000 They were doing basic math.

01:47:52.000 They were doing basic English.

01:47:53.000 They were reading the classics.

01:47:54.000 Many of them weren't doing advanced trigonometry.

01:47:56.000 Many of them didn't go to college.

01:47:58.000 And then they would go to war, a lot of them.

01:48:00.000 And then they would work in the same job until they retired at the age of 65.

01:48:02.000 Right?

01:48:04.000 and most things were made in America, they knew that there was an opportunity for them.

01:48:08.000 Now, in this scenario, we have kids who are going to school becoming totally ill-equipped

01:48:15.000 for the real world. Back then, they allowed corporal punishment. A kid could go to school,

01:48:20.000 get beaten with a switch from his teacher, and the teacher had the full authority to bring out

01:48:25.000 the paddle at any point that they wanted.

01:48:27.000 The teacher could yank on their ear.

01:48:28.000 They had a really tough go.

01:48:29.000 There were no anti-bullying campaigns, and that toughened them up for the world.

01:48:33.000 Now we have kids going to school who live in safe spaces, who aren't challenged, who aren't at all dealing with any kind of adversity.

01:48:40.000 Not everyone, but a lot of people.

01:48:41.000 And then they go out into a world that doesn't have the security.

01:48:47.000 That our fathers, that our grandfathers had.

01:48:49.000 No one!

01:48:50.000 No one in our age... Did you ever leave school thinking that you were going to have a job with benefits, pension, retirement package until age 65?

01:48:57.000 No!

01:48:57.000 You jump around.

01:48:58.000 That's most people our age because you have to.

01:49:02.000 And so we have people less equipped going into a world that's going to treat them more harshly.

01:49:07.000 Whereas at one point we had school equipping people by dealing with them more harshly so that they went into a world more equipped.

01:49:15.000 And I say this because, listen, I know a lot of folks out there, sometimes you're trying to fix this problem where you feel anxious, where you feel like, oh, you're on edge and you don't know what to do.

01:49:24.000 And I see a lot of times people go like, oh yeah, you know, I'm just, I'm just so tense.

01:49:27.000 I'm just so edgy, but I don't want to put any more on my plate because I don't think I could handle it.

01:49:32.000 No, no, you're edgy and anxious precisely because you've got an empty plate, son.

01:49:38.000 So what do I want you to do here?

01:49:40.000 I want you to consider, first, everyone else out there who's saying, Millennials, they have no reason to be anxious.

01:49:43.000 Actually, they have a lot of reasons to be anxious, unfortunately.

01:49:46.000 And that's because a lot of us have failed them.

01:49:48.000 Now, if you're one of those people who find yourself anxious, and you're not in the greatest war ever, well, that would be the First World War, so I know someone's going to call me on that, but one of the most violent, certainly intimidating wars of all time, but you find yourself anxious, I want you to ask yourself, what do you have on your plate?

01:50:05.000 Why is it, ask yourself, why is it that your great-grandfather, who killed 50 men, wasn't as anxious as you are when he was in a pressure cooker?

01:50:17.000 What is it that's missing there that's making you anxious where you don't know what's coming around the corner?

01:50:25.000 What fight have you not picked?

01:50:26.000 I don't mean this in a violent way.

01:50:28.000 Let's start with this.

01:50:29.000 If you feel anxious, and it's not because you're overworked, it's not because you're overburdened, and a lot of people feel that way right now with coronavirus, COVID-19 in their home, right?

01:50:37.000 Their home and they don't have anything that they can do.

01:50:40.000 Fill up your plate.

01:50:40.000 Pick a fight.

01:50:42.000 Pick something.

01:50:43.000 Pick any fight.

01:50:44.000 Find something that is worthwhile for you to get in the trenches over and go do it.

01:50:49.000 And you know what?

01:50:50.000 Sometimes if you're in the trenches, if you're in the heat of it, you don't have time to think about how anxious you are because you're making sure that you're not making the next mistake.

01:50:59.000 That you're taking the right steps.

01:51:01.000 So again, if you find yourself going, I just, I just feel so anxious.

01:51:05.000 I feel empty.

01:51:07.000 Maybe it's because you're overworked and you need some rest.

01:51:08.000 There are some people.

01:51:09.000 But for a lot of you, it's because you're looking at a completely empty plate and you're wondering, what's going to be put on there?

01:51:15.000 No one's going to put anything on your plate.

01:51:16.000 You have to start yourself.

01:51:18.000 Find something that is worth your time, worth putting your energy into, worth being your outlet for your anxiety, to accomplish something that will help others and serve others in the world.

01:51:30.000 This is a good time to figure it out.

01:51:32.000 Because you've got a lot of alone time.

01:51:34.000 I don't want to see you playing Great Escape.

01:51:36.000 Steve McQueen throwing that ball against the wall in solitary.

01:51:39.000 I want you to take this time, rather than look back upon it as a waste of time and go, oh, that's why I replaced anxiety with purposefulness.

01:51:50.000 And the results may surprise you.

01:51:52.000 All right, I will see you next week.

01:51:54.000 Good Morning Mud Club, Monday, live at 10 a.m.

01:51:57.000 Eastern.

01:51:57.000 And then the state capitol, Friday.

01:51:59.000 Oh my gosh.

01:51:59.000 It only takes a time.

01:52:06.000 It's a game.

01:52:27.000 Very drunk.

01:52:32.000 Beautiful song.
