Louder with Crowder - #69 Everything Is Racist! Gad Saad and Mark Rippetoe | Louder With Crowder

00:00:04.000 You've found yourself at the junction where worlds meet.

00:00:09.000 Politics.

00:00:10.000 Civility.

00:00:11.000 How about honesty in this country, folks?

00:00:13.000 Entertainment.

00:00:14.000 I don't like entertainment.

00:00:16.000 And a whole bunch of other stuff.

00:00:19.000 It's about having a healthy body image.

00:00:21.000 If you have a very unhealthy body, you should have a horrible body image.

00:00:24.000 Not a big home improvement market, New Jersey.

00:00:26.000 We are definitely going to get letters.

00:00:28.000 You're listening to Talk Radio's Strangest Animal. 0.97

00:00:32.000 You're a strange animal. 0.95

00:00:34.000 That's what I know. 0.99

00:00:36.000 You're getting louder with Crowder. 0.99

00:00:39.000 But you're a strange animal.

00:00:42.000 I get to follow. 0.84

00:00:43.000 Oh, I'm in the speedy to sound.

00:00:48.000 Oh, glad to be with you.

00:00:50.000 That sound means it's the weekend.

00:00:53.000 I am your host, Stephen Crowder, producing with me in studio, live stream videocast.

00:00:58.000 For those listening terrestrially, as always, is Jared, who is not gay. 0.80

00:01:02.000 You can follow him on Twitter at NotGayJarred.

00:01:05.000 I fulfill my legal obligations and draw your own conclusions.

00:01:07.000 We good.

00:01:08.000 I'm just happy to be here, Stephen.

00:01:09.000 You are just happy to be here.

00:01:10.000 Like John Kasich.

00:01:11.000 Like John Kasich.

00:01:12.000 Just happy to be here.

00:01:13.000 Not Gay Jared is happy to be here. 0.98

00:01:14.000 We have a couple of great guests.

00:01:16.000 Well, three, actually.

00:01:17.000 We have Coach Mark Reperto.

00:01:18.000 We've had him on the show before.

00:01:20.000 Noted strength coach to world renown.

00:01:23.000 One of the best-selling strength coaches around.

00:01:25.000 Also...

00:01:25.000 Literally wrote the book.

00:01:27.000 Literally wrote the book on strength.

00:01:28.000 Also noted geologist and pretty big into politics.

00:01:31.000 Smart guy.

00:01:32.000 We have him.

00:01:32.000 And then we have evolutionary biologist Gad Saeed from Montreal, who...

00:01:38.000 Who has done some incredible research on the psychology and the sort of evolutionary process of political correctness and why it is ruining everything that it touches.

00:01:48.000 Finally, if you think that I've been unfair to Sir Donald Trump, we have my dad, Papa Crowder, on in the last hour.

00:01:56.000 He was just going off.

00:01:57.000 I said, you know what?

00:01:57.000 Why don't you just say this stuff on air?

00:01:59.000 He said, okay.

00:02:00.000 If you're that bold about it.

00:02:02.000 If you're that bold.

00:02:03.000 If you're willing to.

00:02:05.000 But speaking of which, a big week.

00:02:08.000 So let's talk about this first.

00:02:09.000 We're going to get into a bunch of other issues and all the crazy social justice warrior stuff, which is fun.

00:02:14.000 We usually try and avoid the micro political talk.

00:02:16.000 But an important one.

00:02:18.000 Wisconsin happened this week for those who were not following.

00:02:22.000 Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good.

00:02:27.000 Unless you don't like Donald Trump.

00:02:31.000 Then it was really bad.

00:02:32.000 Really bad day.

00:02:33.000 It was like doomsday.

00:02:34.000 Bernie Sanders did well.

00:02:35.000 And Ted Cruz won by a huge margin.

00:02:38.000 Landslide.

00:02:39.000 Landslide.

00:02:40.000 Now, obviously, Ted Cruz is behind Donald Trump as the frontrunner.

00:02:44.000 Except that I understand that a lot of people out there like Donald Trump.

00:02:47.000 Here's why this matters.

00:02:49.000 We won't get into the whole...

00:02:51.000 Voter fraud thing.

00:02:52.000 Every time Donald Trump loses, that's what bothers me.

00:02:54.000 People, they come up with these conspiracy theories.

00:02:55.000 Listen, when Ted Cruz loses, he loses.

00:02:57.000 When Rubio, they lose.

00:02:59.000 When Donald Trump loses, he doesn't lose.

00:03:01.000 But every positive poll is constantly cited, never-ending on Twitter.

00:03:05.000 This is why this is important.

00:03:07.000 So, Wisconsin is the last vote, the last primary that happens for a long time, for over a week, I think.

00:03:13.000 When's the next one?

00:03:14.000 I'm trying to remember.

00:03:15.000 I think the next round is, I think it's New York, April 19th.

00:03:20.000 Right, okay.

00:03:21.000 So Wisconsin is the last one for a while.

00:03:23.000 This is when we have one, boom, big gap.

00:03:25.000 This is why that's important.

00:03:27.000 Worst week of Donald Trump's political campaign, gaffe after gaffe, self-inflicted wounds, and his disapproval rating went through the roof, and Ted Cruz gained a lot of ground on him.

00:03:39.000 Then Wisconsin happens.

00:03:40.000 It's a big blowout win.

00:03:42.000 I think Donald Trump ended up getting three delegates.

00:03:44.000 That's going to be the last thing in people's minds.

00:03:47.000 So we don't want to get too boring and drying in the political thing, but this is important to note.

00:03:51.000 And every now and then I can kind of get one of these right.

00:03:53.000 So, something else that's pretty important to note...

00:03:58.000 Ted Cruz won.

00:03:59.000 This is the first time he's won every demographic.

00:04:01.000 So big cities.

00:04:04.000 Much like Trump did in South Carolina, I think he won.

00:04:06.000 Yeah, Trump typically has done better in more rural areas.

00:04:09.000 People don't like to hear this, but with lesser educated white voters.

00:04:14.000 That's been his strong suit.

00:04:16.000 And he's led that by a landslide.

00:04:18.000 In this one, he lost that by about four points.

00:04:21.000 So Ted Cruz won women, he won men, he won older people, he won younger people, he won self-professed conservatives, he won moderates, he won independents, he won college educated, he won non-college educated.

00:04:34.000 Something else that's really big, because we thought everything else was going to be a landslide going into the Northeast, and it very well could be.

00:04:40.000 I still expect New York to be a blowout.

00:04:42.000 Ted Cruz did a lot better in big cities.

00:04:44.000 Which I think surprised a lot of people.

00:04:46.000 And that, when you go east, a lot of these places are big cities.

00:04:49.000 And what's important is he wasn't doing that before.

00:04:52.000 So that's a shift.

00:04:54.000 Nationally, for the first time, Ted Cruz, Reuters Daily Poll, this is the first time, is leading Trump by two.

00:04:59.000 Now, he's been losing for a while.

00:05:00.000 They were closer a while back.

00:05:02.000 That's important.

00:05:03.000 So what does that mean?

00:05:04.000 Just so you know, as we go into this, it comes down to Pennsylvania.

00:05:07.000 New York's probably going to go to Donald Trump.

00:05:09.000 We all know that.

00:05:10.000 It's a proportional primary.

00:05:12.000 It's not a winner-take-all.

00:05:14.000 As long as anyone else remains even remotely competitive, that won't be a blowout.

00:05:18.000 California is interesting because it is a winner-take-all, and he's within a point of Cruz, but Pennsylvania is a winner-take-all, and that's the big one, where Kasich, I hate to say it, but Kasich might win Pennsylvania.

00:05:30.000 So it comes down to what happens in Pennsylvania.

00:05:32.000 That's what people are looking to.

00:05:33.000 Whatever happens in Pennsylvania will likely determine if we go to a contested convention.

00:05:38.000 So boiling it all down, you're going to get a lot of information.

00:05:41.000 This leads Trump in a tough spot.

00:05:43.000 This is interesting to me.

00:05:44.000 This is where politics get interesting.

00:05:46.000 Think about this.

00:05:46.000 Trump has a lot of momentum now that's coming up against him.

00:05:50.000 And he had a really bad week.

00:05:52.000 This is what's going to be in people's minds until the next primary.

00:05:55.000 He either has to continue...

00:05:58.000 Be more Trumpish, which is what's hurt him here, or...

00:06:03.000 Take his foot off the gas pedal, in which case his constituency thinks he's kind of a pansy.

00:06:08.000 So he's in a tough spot.

00:06:10.000 And it'll be interesting to see what he does.

00:06:11.000 It seems like he's trying to accelerate through it.

00:06:14.000 And if you've seen his attacks on Cruz this week, they've been nonstop.

00:06:18.000 They've been getting increasingly more tantrum-y.

00:06:23.000 So that's where we are.

00:06:23.000 So that's interesting to talk about the Trump thing.

00:06:26.000 Do we want to talk about the Roger Stone deal?

00:06:28.000 We can't.

00:06:29.000 Yeah, it's up to you.

00:06:30.000 Let's play this clip.

00:06:30.000 And that way we can get all the Trump and political stuff out of the way and get to our guests and speak on more interesting matters.

00:06:36.000 Roger Stone, who of course worked in the Trump campaign, does not any longer, but they are on good terms, was on a podcast, Stephen Molyneux?

00:06:44.000 Molyneux?

00:06:45.000 Yeah, something French.

00:06:45.000 I can't pronounce it.

00:06:46.000 It's Molyneux would be the French word.

00:06:48.000 And this is what he was talking about with the contested convention.

00:06:52.000 Let's roll that clip. 0.89

00:06:53.000 Come to Cleveland.

00:06:55.000 March on Cleveland.

00:06:57.000 Join us in the Forest City.

00:06:59.000 We're going to have protests, demonstrations.

00:07:03.000 We will disclose the hotels and the room numbers of those delegates who are directly involved in the steal.

00:07:11.000 If you're from Pennsylvania, we'll tell you who the culprits are. 1.00

00:07:14.000 We urge you to visit their hotel and find them.

00:07:19.000 All right.

00:07:19.000 Wherever you line up, my question here, and tweet me at S. Crowder, at what point does that become a criminal liability?

00:07:25.000 Gosh.

00:07:26.000 I wouldn't be going there unarmed.

00:07:28.000 I would not be going to Cleveland unarmed.

00:07:30.000 I would have a shotgun tied to that door handle like a Home Alone booby trap.

00:07:34.000 Yes.

00:07:35.000 And I know someone's going to say that's illegal.

00:07:36.000 I know it's illegal.

00:07:37.000 But are the flamethrowers, the makeshift, are those?

00:07:40.000 That is the question.

00:07:41.000 If it's a pellet gun, I think you're in the clear.

00:07:43.000 Well, you know.

00:07:44.000 But it's one thing to say, oh, you encourage violent rhetoric by saying Planned Parenthood is bad with Carly Fiorina. 0.99

00:07:49.000 Or when they tried to, a long time ago, Sarah Palin say...

00:07:54.000 You know, they did the...

00:07:54.000 What was it?

00:07:55.000 She had that target map saying, well, if someone... 0.99

00:07:57.000 Right, right, right.

00:07:58.000 Clinging, bitter, clinging.

00:07:59.000 Can I get a hallelujah?

00:08:01.000 That's my jam.

00:08:02.000 That is not Kay Jarrett's jam.

00:08:03.000 She had the target map, and they said, look, you're responsible for Giffords, I think. 0.95

00:08:07.000 That's silly.

00:08:08.000 But if someone says, we're going to have a day of... 0.62

00:08:11.000 Not protest, a day of rage for Donald Trump.

00:08:14.000 I'm going to post hotels on their numbers, and you better pay them a visit.

00:08:18.000 Someone shows up and hurts somebody.

00:08:20.000 Is that guy criminally liable at that point?

00:08:23.000 Well, it's nothing new for Trump.

00:08:24.000 I think about when he was calling for paying the lawsuits for people who punch him in the face.

00:08:28.000 Yeah, so this is his familiar strategy.

00:08:31.000 That's a call to action.

00:08:33.000 And I'm a little disappointed.

00:08:33.000 Yeah.

00:08:34.000 You know, Stephan, I've watched some of his podcasts.

00:08:36.000 We invited him on the show a while back, and he said that he didn't have time and he didn't do other shows.

00:08:36.000 I like a lot of the things.

00:08:42.000 Which I thought was surprising.

00:08:44.000 You know, he didn't do guests at the time, and now he has a guy on who's talking about posting people's addresses.

00:08:49.000 So perhaps that's a more legitimate form of criticism of people with whom you disagree.

00:08:58.000 I can't believe that we're here.

00:08:59.000 I can't believe we're making fun of people's wives and we're talking about posting hotel room numbers.

00:09:05.000 And I think this is really hurting Donald Trump.

00:09:08.000 I really do think that it's hurting him right now.

00:09:11.000 And I know his fans, he can do no wrong, so it'll be interesting to see what happens here.

00:09:17.000 I don't know who out there is.

00:09:19.000 We have a few listeners out there in Pennsylvania.

00:09:20.000 I don't know if we're broadcasting in Pennsylvania.

00:09:22.000 But...

00:09:26.000 I keep getting this buzz here in my ear that's driving me absolutely insane.

00:09:29.000 Those are the voices.

00:09:30.000 These are just the voices that are in my head.

00:09:33.000 I don't know how much time we have.

00:09:34.000 I wanted to talk about Pfizer and the pharmaceutical companies.

00:09:38.000 We need more time for that.

00:09:39.000 This is about these tariffs and these pharmaceutical companies.

00:09:42.000 I don't know if you heard they wanted to go out to Ireland because of a lower corporate tax rate.

00:09:46.000 And Barack Obama pushed some legislation saying, no, no, you have to stay here.

00:09:50.000 The big government, people need to understand this, absolutely screws the middle class and the working class more than any other mechanism of governance out there.

00:10:00.000 More than any other mechanism of commerce out there is big government.

00:10:03.000 I want to talk about that, but I want to be thorough so it doesn't get taken out of context.

00:10:07.000 You made a good point before we get into all this stuff.

00:10:10.000 Speaking of people being beaten, you were talking about being raised this week.

00:10:13.000 We watched Family Matters.

00:10:16.000 Well, it came off the heels because I had finished the O.J. show this week.

00:10:19.000 The O.J. show, that's it.

00:10:21.000 And I had finished that, and I was really surprised.

00:10:23.000 I mean, I grew up, I was born in 90, so I was a young child playing with my boogers when O.J. was racing down the 403 or whatever the highway it is in his white bronco.

00:10:35.000 And roll it.

00:10:36.000 Yes.

00:10:37.000 And so, I just was surprised how much the show painted, you know, the whole Black Lives Matter's origins in a negative light.

00:10:47.000 I was kind of thinking back to that.

00:10:49.000 Because I remember, you know, I grew up in the 90s, and so I watched, you know, some of the shows I watched were Family Matters and, you know, Fresh Prince, Cosby Show.

00:10:58.000 Which is funny, Family Matters.

00:11:00.000 But I don't want that really on record.

00:11:02.000 No, you don't want that on record.

00:11:03.000 No.

00:11:03.000 Family matters, right?

00:11:04.000 The father was a cop.

00:11:06.000 Father was a cop.

00:11:07.000 Fresh Prince judge.

00:11:09.000 Right.

00:11:10.000 They put it on the opposite side of the law. 0.98

00:11:12.000 Yeah, Dr.

00:11:12.000 Which is kind of funny.

00:11:12.000 Dr.

00:11:12.000 Huxtable.

00:11:13.000 And that's changed dramatically.

00:11:14.000 And it's funny.

00:11:15.000 We watched this growing up.

00:11:15.000 We were talking about this.

00:11:16.000 When you talk about this division, not only in politics and the Trump situation, but of course the left has been the biggest culprit with that.

00:11:21.000 You talk about the racial division.

00:11:23.000 These weren't black shows.

00:11:25.000 These were the shows we watched.

00:11:27.000 Yeah, I didn't think I'm watching a black show when I watched it.

00:11:29.000 It was just a funny show.

00:11:31.000 I didn't think I was chiming in, you know, getting in the black, you know, gigs.

00:11:31.000 Right.

00:11:35.000 It was funny.

00:11:35.000 I don't know.

00:11:36.000 But now we're at a point where almost everything is, oh, this is a Tyler Perry show.

00:11:40.000 This is where the black people watch, and white people watch this show.

00:11:42.000 Therefore, we need quotas, and we need to fight for quotas and equality.

00:11:46.000 And I just want to go back to Carl Winslow.

00:11:49.000 this talk more this is jeff federline with goldwire.com here Little known fact, did you know that gold has never been worth nothing?

00:11:49.000 We'll be back after this.

00:12:14.000 It is always worth something, which is more than zero.

00:12:18.000 And in these times with staggering inflation and uncertainty in the economy, gold is a brilliant hedge against the inflating dollar.

00:12:25.000 Right now, gold prices are at an all-time low, which means it's the perfect time to buy and secure your portfolio.

00:12:31.000 As a matter of fact, you should replace every investment you have currently with solid blocks of gold.

00:12:38.000 The best place to do that is GoldWire.com with me, Jeff Federline.

00:12:43.000 I not only buy gold, I sell gold, I plate in gold, and my favorite film is Goldfinger.

00:12:48.000 Don't be left out on the cold when the economy collapses.

00:12:51.000 Gold has never been worth nothing.

00:12:54.000 Gold is not a guaranteed security hedge against the inflating dollar, also.

00:12:56.000 Also, Diet Coke has never been worth nothing.

00:12:58.000 All right.

00:13:15.000 And don't do that.

00:13:18.000 You can't do it better than outcasts, so don't try. 1.00

00:13:21.000 But I try.

00:13:22.000 No, I don't want you to try.

00:13:23.000 I get too into it, is the problem.

00:13:27.000 This is why we need crappy royalty-free music, so I don't get sucked in that way.

00:13:31.000 This is why your dad should have taught you to lower your expectations and not try.

00:13:34.000 He's certainly dead with me, so...

00:13:37.000 Okay, so we did a few videos this week.

00:13:39.000 We were talking about democratic socialism.

00:13:40.000 We had a lot of feedback.

00:13:42.000 Coming up at the bottom of the hour, Coach Mark Ripito.

00:13:45.000 Here's something that was interesting, I think is sort of emblematic, and a lot of people missed this.

00:13:49.000 This week, there's a big story.

00:13:50.000 Pfizer.

00:13:51.000 I think, what's the other company?

00:13:52.000 Allergan?

00:13:53.000 There's going to be a merger, right?

00:13:53.000 Allergan?

00:13:54.000 Yeah, Allergan.

00:13:55.000 The pharmaceutical company.

00:13:57.000 Big, evil pharmaceutical company.

00:13:58.000 By the way, they pay the show along with the Koch brothers and Big Oil.

00:14:03.000 Yeah, you haven't cut my portion, my check yet.

00:14:06.000 Oh, the Koch brothers?

00:14:06.000 Can you get that in before the tax day?

00:14:07.000 Well, they hate not gay people, so... 0.94

00:14:10.000 I wouldn't expect a beefy check. 0.98

00:14:13.000 Whatever.

00:14:14.000 So, they were planning this merger.

00:14:16.000 It would basically put Pfizer in Ireland, right?

00:14:18.000 Big tax haven.

00:14:19.000 Little known fact about Bono, who supports big liberal policies, has his money in Ireland, which is a well-known tax haven.

00:14:24.000 Some American businesses do this.

00:14:27.000 So, I want to follow the logic trail here, because right away people get mad at big pharmaceutical companies and go, yeah, they don't have the right to do that.

00:14:33.000 So, they say, oh my gosh, highest corporate tax rate in the industrialized world, the United States.

00:14:37.000 We're going to put our business in Ireland.

00:14:41.000 That way we can continue to sustain ourselves.

00:14:45.000 Barack Obama, liberals, then create a law to punish American companies that take any of their business offshore.

00:14:52.000 They said no.

00:14:53.000 So they have to stay, forcing them to pay record high taxes, these corporations.

00:14:57.000 So what happens?

00:14:58.000 These companies, a good example, I just want you to follow me down the logic trail here, will inevitably necessarily raise the price of drugs.

00:15:05.000 Again, they're paying over a 30% corporate tax rate.

00:15:07.000 Then liberals declare healthcare to be a human right, and they pass legislation to force them to reduce or put a cap on drug prices.

00:15:15.000 So they screw the businesses with the high taxes.

00:15:18.000 They ban them from legally migrating somewhere where they could avoid that high taxes, of course, eliminating any kind of international competition.

00:15:24.000 And then they legislate that these companies lower their profit margins.

00:15:30.000 And what's great is that in Europe, their corporate tax rates are much lower.

00:15:34.000 People don't understand that.

00:15:35.000 That's not an evil capitalism thing.

00:15:37.000 Even a lot of these socialist countries that leftists love to praise have lower corporate tax rates because they want to have higher individual tax rates.

00:15:44.000 They understand that a corporation being taxed less allows for more money to go to the employees.

00:15:51.000 And we hear the United States is the only country without a nationalized health care plan.

00:15:55.000 We're also the number one country, we're the only country with number one in research, cures, Nobel Prizes, survival rates.

00:16:02.000 It's not even close.

00:16:04.000 Why?

00:16:05.000 Because it's profitable to innovate here.

00:16:07.000 And now we're killing it.

00:16:10.000 So, what do you think is going to happen if you keep these corporate tax rates so high, force companies, let's just use the pharmaceutical industry for a start, force them to stay here, and then say also you can't raise your prices.

00:16:23.000 What is going to happen?

00:16:26.000 Probably some less research.

00:16:28.000 Probably less drugs.

00:16:29.000 Many of you listening right now will probably die.

00:16:32.000 I've seen some of you send in your fan pictures.

00:16:34.000 I don't think many of you are going to make it past the week.

00:16:37.000 I don't know if it's a meth habit or you have some bug that we haven't figured out yet, but you need to get yourselves checked out.

00:16:43.000 The exact same thing occurs here with minimum wage.

00:16:45.000 How does big government screw people with minimum wage? 0.86

00:16:48.000 Force businesses to fight for $15.

00:16:50.000 Pay a $15 minimum wage regardless of skill or value.

00:16:53.000 Now, if that business automates jobs, right, with machines or computers, what does the government do?

00:17:00.000 Why are you laughing?

00:17:01.000 I just have the Neil Cavuto school that girl this week.

00:17:05.000 He's so friendly with his schooling.

00:17:07.000 I don't feel like...

00:17:07.000 He's so friendly.

00:17:08.000 What I like about him is I don't think he's a guy who wants to be there.

00:17:11.000 I think he's a guy who's like, ah, I'd rather be home perfecting my stir-fry recipe. 0.99

00:17:17.000 But I'll politely school this idiot on economics instead. 0.99

00:17:21.000 He's probably the best in news right now. 1.00

00:17:24.000 It's so fun to watch him do that.

00:17:25.000 What's amazing to me is the people they send out to represent these causes.

00:17:29.000 The Fight for 15, this video.

00:17:29.000 Yeah.

00:17:31.000 This is your representative.

00:17:32.000 She came out and she had a t-shirt right with a fist. 0.98

00:17:34.000 And we are fighting for 15.

00:17:37.000 And this is just reality.

00:17:38.000 We are fighting the corporations who are making lots of profits.

00:17:41.000 They already rose across the Big Mac.

00:17:43.000 I ain't getting that money.

00:17:45.000 Do you just assume they just raise the price?

00:17:47.000 Maybe the cost of beef went up.

00:17:50.000 Because of you!

00:17:51.000 You're eating the supply!

00:17:51.000 Because of you.

00:17:52.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:17:53.000 It's just like the girl who came out for the free school. 1.00

00:17:55.000 The idiots that they send out to represent their cause. 1.00

00:17:58.000 It is. 1.00

00:17:58.000 And Neil Cavuto, you know, send them all in and Neil Cavuto just don't send anybody you want back. 1.00

00:18:02.000 So, force them to pay a $15 minimum wage.

00:18:05.000 What's the minimum wage, right?

00:18:06.000 Then the business automates them.

00:18:07.000 You punish the business and say, no, no, no, you can't automate them.

00:18:09.000 You can't automate them.

00:18:10.000 And they force companies to hire more people for effectively redundant jobs.

00:18:14.000 When prices inevitably go up, businesses go under.

00:18:19.000 What does the government do?

00:18:20.000 Promise to subsidize more welfare programs when there's higher unemployment.

00:18:23.000 Either way, they win.

00:18:25.000 They don't care if businesses do well.

00:18:26.000 They don't care if unemployment is all that great.

00:18:28.000 They care about it during election season, but they don't enact policies that help people.

00:18:31.000 This will constantly, constantly screw the middle class through this.

00:18:36.000 A great example is Amazon.

00:18:38.000 If you want to be American, buy American. 0.94

00:18:40.000 You can buy American.

00:18:43.000 You also don't have to.

00:18:44.000 That's the beauty of a free market.

00:18:46.000 Amazon, like if you want to buy, Hillary was my wife, my wife, not the bad one, something like some dent, I think white strips. 1.00

00:18:52.000 You're half the price on Amazon.

00:18:54.000 Why?

00:18:55.000 Because it's automated.

00:18:56.000 Half of that stuff is done with computers.

00:18:58.000 It comes out of one central warehouse.

00:19:00.000 They're sourcing, not everything is done in the United States and guess what?

00:19:02.000 You save a ton of money.

00:19:03.000 Do you want to start paying double?

00:19:06.000 If not, you might have to re-examine your trade policies.

00:19:08.000 I'm not saying that we should be getting screwed on trade deals, but this idea that you just want to punish companies and bring back American jobs on shore.

00:19:17.000 First off, most of them suck, and what happens with Amazon, when they're able to automate, they're able to create more good jobs here in the United States. 0.94

00:19:26.000 They outsource the crappy ones. 1.00

00:19:28.000 Yep.

00:19:29.000 How many companies do we know?

00:19:31.000 The ones that can be done by people who know about three English words and about five letters.

00:19:36.000 But if you wanted job stability, you should just learn a job that you can't be replaced by a robot.

00:19:41.000 Maybe just get it.

00:19:42.000 That's why I'm around, because you have yet to find a robot.

00:19:44.000 Well, millennials can't do it. 1.00

00:19:46.000 Wouldn't you think if you could, I mean, I'd be a robot by now.

00:19:50.000 I'm saying millennials refuse to do those jobs. 0.99

00:19:52.000 Plumbing, commissions, carpentry.

00:19:54.000 Same thing.

00:19:54.000 Same with Obamacare.

00:19:55.000 I'm saying buttons.

00:19:56.000 We've done the Pfizer company, Pharmaceutical.

00:19:59.000 Same with Obamacare. 0.51

00:20:00.000 What do you think happens?

00:20:01.000 You force insurance companies to accept high-risk people who they weren't accepting before.

00:20:05.000 They're playing a betting game, insurance companies.

00:20:06.000 People put in this much, we know we'll have to pay this.

00:20:08.000 No, we're going to force you to hire high-risk people.

00:20:11.000 Okay.

00:20:12.000 They mandate it.

00:20:13.000 They also punish companies that don't pay for full-time workers for their health care and people, right?

00:20:13.000 So what happens?

00:20:18.000 There's a mandate.

00:20:19.000 You're forced to or you get punished.

00:20:21.000 What happens to the insurance companies?

00:20:22.000 Prices go up because they're bringing in people with diabetes and fried Oreos and Snickers bars and cancer, and then the companies lay off full-time workers and force more people to part-time work.

00:20:32.000 And now Hillary Clinton is saying she might use an executive action to fix the problem with a rash of part-time employment. 1.00

00:20:38.000 And you wonder why we're in debt?

00:20:40.000 At every step, you screw people.

00:20:44.000 Alright, Coach Mark Repto after this. 0.96

00:20:45.000 this we'll lighten up then we'll come back whoa jared what are you doing Shoot bad guys!

00:21:04.000 With what?

00:21:31.000 This Week in Feminism. 1.00

00:21:37.000 We are here live at the University of Michigan protests from the student body's LGBTQAAIP protests, where they are demanding that their preferred gender pronouns be used in absence of biology.

00:21:49.000 I stand here with their female representative... 1.00

00:21:52.000 No, see right there, I didn't say female.

00:21:54.000 I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude.

00:21:56.000 This lady who... 1.00

00:21:57.000 No, that's the same thing. 1.00

00:21:58.000 Dang, it seems you would prefer bitch. 1.00

00:22:00.000 I'm gonna do the things that I want to do. 0.99

00:22:18.000 I ain't got a thing to prove to you.

00:22:22.000 I ain't gonna wear the clothes that you're lying.

00:22:27.000 I don't give a hood about what you think.

00:22:31.000 All right, Glad, this is the first time.

00:22:33.000 We don't have a lot of people who come into the studio, but you've seen him on the program before.

00:22:38.000 You've heard him.

00:22:40.000 I'm trying to think of the best thing to plug, but you know him, Coach Mark Ripito.

00:22:44.000 Senor Ripito, thanks for being in.

00:22:45.000 Hey, glad to be here.

00:22:47.000 Now, what's the best site for people to go to?

00:22:50.000 StartingStrength.com.

00:22:51.000 We just redesigned it.

00:22:53.000 We, Steph, just redesigned the whole website.

00:22:53.000 Oh, did you?

00:22:56.000 Brand new interface.

00:22:58.000 Totally modern look.

00:23:00.000 Very modern.

00:23:01.000 Well, we've talked about it a lot for people listening.

00:23:03.000 We'll veer back into it because we tie things together, but strength coach knows a lot about that.

00:23:10.000 He's been open about his politics, caught some flack for being on the show before.

00:23:12.000 Right before we were on air, you were talking about, you had a story about, was it a tiger in Africa?

00:23:19.000 Tigers are in Asia.

00:23:19.000 No.

00:23:21.000 It was a lion.

00:23:22.000 It was a lion in Africa?

00:23:22.000 Well, the transition was because we were talking about how much bigger tigers were.

00:23:25.000 We're in here talking, all right?

00:23:28.000 And we're talking about people being eaten by tigers and stuff.

00:23:32.000 And I said that there was an old story, a famous old story, about lions in Africa.

00:23:40.000 the Maasai build fences out of thorn.

00:23:45.000 And amazingly enough, thorn is, I think it's acacia.

00:23:48.000 It's similar to the ubiquitous mesquite trees we have in Texas.

00:23:53.000 Well, they pile these thorns up and they keep the cattle in big tall fences.

00:23:58.000 And inside at night, away from the lions.

00:24:01.000 And the theory is that the thorns keep the lions out.

00:24:06.000 And there's the story of a...

00:24:08.000 Why do you say theory?

00:24:09.000 I'm guessing it didn't work.

00:24:10.000 Well, it didn't work this time. 0.99

00:24:13.000 The story I heard was, and this is from reading it several dozen years ago, but I thought it was impressive just because these damn things are strong. 0.99

00:24:22.000 Lion jumps in the crawl, which is the name for the container, jumps in the crawl, kills a heifer. 0.98

00:24:30.000 It's a 12-foot fence.

00:24:33.000 Jumps over the 12-foot fence, kills a heifer, Grabs her by the neck and jumps out with the heifer in its jaw.

00:24:45.000 So it's a 400-pound, 500-pound heifer.

00:24:49.000 And, you know, that's...

00:24:51.000 I mean, those of you people that have house cats have had, at some level, some interaction, where the cat is pissed.

00:25:00.000 The cat...

00:25:02.000 It's much stronger than you think the cat ought to be.

00:25:05.000 Even a house cat.

00:25:06.000 The house cat is insanely strong.

00:25:09.000 It's just...

00:25:10.000 It's an amazing...

00:25:12.000 It's handy that we're a lot smarter than they are because they've, you know...

00:25:17.000 They would...

00:25:17.000 Right.

00:25:18.000 Well, it also gives you great appreciation.

00:25:20.000 I was talking about this in the program.

00:25:21.000 If you think the biggest cat, a lot of people think lions.

00:25:24.000 But then you have the next level up, which is a Siberian tiger.

00:25:28.000 Siberians are 650.

00:25:31.000 But you know the big difference why they would smoke lions in the Colosseum?

00:25:35.000 Hmm.

00:25:36.000 So a lot of people don't know this.

00:25:38.000 You'd think it's just the size difference.

00:25:39.000 No.

00:25:40.000 Lions have to be on three paws, and they can paw, whereas a Siberian tiger can actually load up on his hind legs and pounce.

00:25:48.000 And so they would just toss in several lions to warm up the tiger, because a lion would come out like this, have to be on three points, and the tiger would just, boom, pounce on the thing.

00:25:58.000 Well, what do you think that deal is, the lion rampant?

00:26:04.000 Well, you've seen the Scottish national flag.

00:26:07.000 The lion is up on his hind legs.

00:26:09.000 I don't know.

00:26:10.000 I would imagine it's not accurate.

00:26:13.000 Right?

00:26:14.000 I don't know.

00:26:15.000 Maybe it's false.

00:26:17.000 It's a mythological Scottish concept of a lion that's not true.

00:26:21.000 I don't know, but people say a lot of things.

00:26:22.000 They don't have lions in Scotland anymore, so who knows?

00:26:25.000 What does heart of a lion mean?

00:26:26.000 That's a term we use.

00:26:27.000 Do lions have a lot of...

00:26:28.000 I don't know.

00:26:29.000 Do lions have a heart?

00:26:29.000 Do they have a heart?

00:26:31.000 They have hearts, but I... Have you seen a heart of a lion?

00:26:34.000 Oh, you want to hear a funny story about that?

00:26:34.000 How do you know?

00:26:36.000 To give you an idea as to how little sometimes we know about science, you ever heard the story of the taxidermist and the lion in Sweden?

00:26:43.000 No.

00:26:43.000 You can Google the picture.

00:26:44.000 A guy came in from Africa.

00:26:45.000 This was long before, you know, planes.

00:26:47.000 This was a long time ago, where if someone was going from Africa to Sweden, that took days.

00:26:51.000 You know, probably traveled with a troop of people.

00:26:52.000 Half of them were dead by the time he got there.

00:26:54.000 And he brought back this lion and said, I killed it.

00:26:56.000 You know, went to a taxidermist.

00:26:57.000 The guy had never seen it.

00:26:58.000 He had the skin of a lion.

00:27:00.000 And he stuffed this lion.

00:27:02.000 And you can look up the picture.

00:27:03.000 It looks nothing like a lion.

00:27:06.000 And then you get this idea of people taking dinosaurs and telling you that they can see through vision through movement in Jurassic Park.

00:27:13.000 You just realize how much guesswork there is.

00:27:15.000 It's all just inference.

00:27:16.000 At that time, there were lions.

00:27:16.000 Right.

00:27:18.000 It looks nothing like it.

00:27:20.000 So, I mean, yeah.

00:27:20.000 Extrapolation.

00:27:22.000 I'm not saying you should abandon science.

00:27:24.000 I'm just saying that it is incredible how many leaps sometimes we make.

00:27:27.000 And if you question it, they say...

00:27:29.000 Some sciences are more prone to that than others.

00:27:31.000 This is true.

00:27:32.000 In all honesty.

00:27:34.000 Some sciences, it is...

00:27:36.000 It has become quite acceptable to extrapolate.

00:27:41.000 Are you talking about climate here a little bit?

00:27:43.000 Well, you know, there are several examples of that.

00:27:46.000 I mean, you know, climate science is kind of becoming a social science, isn't it?

00:27:54.000 It is.

00:27:54.000 I wonder if they understand that.

00:27:57.000 I think the people on the side of it do, who are pushing it.

00:27:57.000 I think they do.

00:28:00.000 I think they understand that.

00:28:02.000 And they want to paint everyone who is skeptical at all, of course.

00:28:06.000 It's become very religious.

00:28:07.000 And I think a lot of people have noticed that there's a little bit of overreach.

00:28:11.000 Even people who are going, okay, it's getting a little...

00:28:13.000 Here's my question with that.

00:28:14.000 Let's assume everything is true.

00:28:16.000 The earth is getting warmer.

00:28:17.000 Humans are the cause of it.

00:28:17.000 It'll have catastrophic results.

00:28:19.000 What do you believe that Hillary Clinton can do about it?

00:28:22.000 Yeah.

00:28:23.000 Yeah, that's kind of a problem.

00:28:27.000 You know, there's just not a case to be made for either certainty with respect to anthropogenic global warming, or if, you know, let's postulate that it is being caused by us.

00:28:40.000 What the hell are you going to do about it?

00:28:42.000 Right.

00:28:43.000 I mean, we elected him in 08.

00:28:46.000 The sea level stopped rising, right?

00:28:48.000 Right.

00:28:50.000 Was the sea level rising anyway?

00:28:52.000 Well, isn't Florida supposed to be gone?

00:28:53.000 Do you know that for sure?

00:28:54.000 I think Florida is supposed to be gone now, according to the inconvenient truth.

00:28:58.000 We did that.

00:28:59.000 We did a whole fact-checking of, hey, let's go back with this anniversary of inconvenient truth, and none of them held up.

00:29:04.000 Well, I just, you know, I have a science background.

00:29:08.000 I'm a geologist.

00:29:10.000 My undergraduate degree is in geology.

00:29:14.000 I didn't know that about you.

00:29:15.000 Oh, yeah.

00:29:16.000 In fact, it's petroleum geology.

00:29:20.000 For some reason, I thought you had your degree in kinesiology.

00:29:23.000 No.

00:29:24.000 God.

00:29:24.000 That's not a degree.

00:29:26.000 That's a P.E. degree.

00:29:28.000 Don't you require your people to be certified in your program to have a degree in kinesiology?

00:29:31.000 No!

00:29:32.000 Oh, okay.

00:29:33.000 We prefer they don't.

00:29:34.000 They don't...

00:29:36.000 All the people with exercise science degrees that come to our seminar, we have to teach them exercise science because they don't know anything when they get there.

00:29:43.000 I'd much rather them have a hard science background, a biology degree, or physics, or math, or chemistry, or something like that, because they know how to think more clearly than the PE majors that sometimes wander in.

00:29:57.000 Well, biology is sexist now. 0.80

00:29:59.000 They're going to turn that into a social science, right?

00:30:02.000 They haven't already?

00:30:03.000 Well, that's what I'm saying.

00:30:04.000 They're trying to turn everything into social science.

00:30:07.000 But the point I'd like to make is that here you have a bunch of people with bachelor's degrees in English telling us that one party or another is anti-science.

00:30:24.000 Right.

00:30:26.000 Why is it that all intellectuals have English degrees?

00:30:30.000 It's a good question.

00:30:30.000 What's the deal on that?

00:30:31.000 How come chemistry majors don't get to be intellectuals?

00:30:36.000 How come gender studies people can be intellectuals and a physics major can't be an intellectual because, of course, he's just a math nerd. 0.68

00:30:45.000 Well, I even take it one step further.

00:30:46.000 How come the guy who was a plumber...

00:30:50.000 Okay.

00:30:51.000 Oh, sorry.

00:30:52.000 How come the guy who was a plumber, who started a business, and is making a six-figure income, who filled a void where there was a necessary job, why don't we consider that person an intellectual?

00:31:02.000 This guy knows intricacies that we couldn't even begin to understand.

00:31:05.000 He knows how to solve problems.

00:31:07.000 I mean, yeah.

00:31:07.000 Certain problems.

00:31:09.000 He's good at analysis.

00:31:11.000 Problem solving, execution.

00:31:13.000 I've learned in my life, I met a mechanic who looked like the redneck on The Simpsons. 0.96

00:31:16.000 Where'd you get another tooth, Sadwalk?

00:31:18.000 That guy.

00:31:19.000 And he was brilliant.

00:31:21.000 He was a mechanic.

00:31:22.000 And he was a mechanic who would come to your house and fix your car at your house.

00:31:25.000 A mechanic with an engineer's mind.

00:31:27.000 Yeah, I have no idea what his certification was, but think about that for a business.

00:31:31.000 Why does he need a certification?

00:31:32.000 His certification is that he can fix what's wrong.

00:31:32.000 Oh, exactly.

00:31:37.000 Right?

00:31:37.000 Right.

00:31:38.000 He can fix problems.

00:31:39.000 I had a good friend that's a welder in North Texas.

00:31:43.000 A couple of guys that are like this, but the guy I'm thinking of is...

00:31:47.000 Yeah, he's a welder, but...

00:31:51.000 Jim is the designer.

00:31:53.000 He's a design engineer.

00:31:55.000 And just an old country guy, but when he builds things, they work.

00:32:01.000 He designs things, because he knows the physics.

00:32:01.000 Yeah.

00:32:04.000 He doesn't know the terms.

00:32:06.000 He doesn't actually know that he knows the physics.

00:32:08.000 But he knows the physics.

00:32:10.000 Not Gay Jared and I were talking about this.

00:32:12.000 If we had to, not Gay Jared, right, we could probably, your famous line, we could probably build a house. 0.97

00:32:18.000 I wouldn't trust the second floor.

00:32:19.000 I wouldn't go on the second floor.

00:32:22.000 I wouldn't get under the second floor.

00:32:24.000 No, nobody would.

00:32:26.000 I don't want to be underneath such a structure.

00:32:28.000 I'm not saying that someone can't study, whether it's kinesiology or be a gender studies major, and also be an intellectual.

00:32:35.000 But like you said...

00:32:36.000 We're not the ones making that argument.

00:32:37.000 We're not the ones placing a barrier to entry.

00:32:40.000 The regressive left is. 0.81

00:32:41.000 So I wanted to go back to, you know, it's funny you mentioned anti-science.

00:32:44.000 I don't know if it's a law.

00:32:45.000 Is there anything more settled science as far as observable hard science than human DNA? 0.99

00:32:52.000 But the people who accuse the anti-authoritarian right of being anti-science believe that that penis and your DNA is a figment of your imagination.

00:33:00.000 Well, I think you're confusing morphology with genetics there. 0.98

00:33:06.000 It's just, you know, you... 0.99

00:33:09.000 I want an excuse to toss penis in there. 1.00

00:33:11.000 Have a penis because of genetics. 1.00

00:33:13.000 If you'd like to say penis again, go ahead. 1.00

00:33:16.000 Well, find another name for it. 0.99

00:33:18.000 Well, no, we can't do that because this is a family show.

00:33:21.000 Well, you can say...

00:33:23.000 You can say tallywhacker.

00:33:25.000 Tallywhacker.

00:33:26.000 That's what I was raised to call it.

00:33:28.000 Is that what you called it?

00:33:28.000 That's what my mother told me to call it.

00:33:31.000 That's your tallywhacker.

00:33:32.000 That's your tallywhacker.

00:33:34.000 My dad had a bunch of them.

00:33:35.000 Schlong, schlucker, schmeckle. 1.00

00:33:37.000 No, those are all Jewish terms.

00:33:39.000 Really?

00:33:40.000 We're North Texas.

00:33:41.000 Purple helmet warrior.

00:33:42.000 We don't have any...

00:33:42.000 We don't have Jewish people in North Texas.

00:33:47.000 Well, I don't know.

00:33:48.000 It's not that we don't allow them there.

00:33:50.000 Well, who controls your economy with their secret gold?

00:33:54.000 I tell you what, I got so many anti-Semitic comments recently.

00:33:57.000 There are no Jewish masterminds in North Texas.

00:34:00.000 And somehow the thing functions.

00:34:02.000 I don't know how it works.

00:34:04.000 Without that aspect of the conspiracy, what do you do?

00:34:07.000 I don't know.

00:34:08.000 There is an uprising.

00:34:09.000 How do Jewish people only control New York and Los Angeles? 0.98

00:34:12.000 I don't know.

00:34:13.000 There's a big giant area in there in the middle.

00:34:13.000 What the hell?

00:34:16.000 Right. 0.96

00:34:17.000 Ripe for the taking.

00:34:18.000 For these geniuses.

00:34:19.000 I think that it's some kind of, with the Earth's force and the pact that they've made with said spiritual forces at work, for some reason it's null and void in flyover country.

00:34:29.000 I don't know.

00:34:30.000 You'd have to go ask the conspiracy theorists.

00:34:32.000 I don't know.

00:34:33.000 Speaking of which, we just watched that.

00:34:35.000 You saw that, the Roger Stone former Trump campaign record.

00:34:39.000 Yeah, I saw you played that for me.

00:34:40.000 What an interesting thing to have recorded on video.

00:34:45.000 We just talked about it.

00:34:47.000 What is wrong with these guys?

00:34:49.000 Release the hotel rooms and encouraging people.

00:34:51.000 At what point does that become a criminal liability?

00:34:53.000 Well, at the point where these lunatics drag somebody out into the hall and beat them to death because you told them the room number, right?

00:35:03.000 Have you ever noticed that when you check into a hotel, the desk clerk will not even say 309 out loud?

00:35:12.000 Here's your room, sir.

00:35:14.000 And they write it and hand it to you. 1.00

00:35:16.000 Yet, this idiot... 1.00

00:35:17.000 It's going to give the room numbers of all of these delegates out. 1.00

00:35:22.000 Which begs the question, what kind of criminal activity does he have to do to procure a said room number?

00:35:26.000 Well, that's an excellent question.

00:35:27.000 You can't beat it out of the desk clerk. 0.97

00:35:30.000 Maybe they can.

00:35:30.000 I don't know.

00:35:31.000 But, by the way, we have to go to a break soon.

00:35:34.000 For those who are looking, if not Gay Jared is in Cleveland, his room name is always under Holly Golightly.

00:35:40.000 It's very easy to find.

00:35:44.000 It's going to be room number 69.

00:35:47.000 Okay, come on.

00:35:48.000 This is a nice program.

00:35:49.000 Ladder with Trader, Coach Mark Ripito.

00:35:51.000 We'll be back.

00:35:52.000 And now time for GOP Party Jokes. 0.91

00:36:20.000 Okay, so have you heard the one about the rabbi, the priest, and the guy with the third nipple? 0.85

00:36:22.000 No, no, I haven't heard it. 0.62

00:36:24.000 So this rabbi walks... 0.95

00:36:24.000 Okay, that's a good one. 0.95

00:36:25.000 Well, hey, guys, are you telling jokes?

00:36:28.000 Oh, yeah, hey, Kasich, yeah, I'm in the middle of a joke.

00:36:31.000 I love jokes.

00:36:32.000 I have one.

00:36:34.000 Okay, well, let me just finish mine here.

00:36:35.000 No, I want you to stop telling that joke, because I have one to tell.

00:36:40.000 Yeah, okay, just one second.

00:36:41.000 Yeah, just wait a second.

00:36:42.000 No, no.

00:36:44.000 No.

00:36:45.000 Stop.

00:36:47.000 I have a joke to tell.

00:36:50.000 Why did the mailman cross the road?

00:36:50.000 All right.

00:36:53.000 Okay, here it comes.

00:36:54.000 Well, not only because that mailman was my father, and those workers make up the backbone of America, but he was crossing the road to pursue the American dream and move up the ladder to a living wage and a secure future, a dream we all have here in America.

00:37:13.000 I guess that wasn't really a joke. 0.91

00:37:15.000 And when he got there, he got raped. 1.00

00:37:19.000 Holy crap. 1.00

00:37:21.000 This has been GOP Party Jokes. 0.98

00:37:24.000 We are back.

00:37:45.000 They were asking questions.

00:37:46.000 Holly Golightly was Breakfast at Tiffany's.

00:37:51.000 By the way, could you believe that character, Mickey Rooney, in Breakfast at Tiffany's?

00:37:56.000 Do you think they get away with that today?

00:37:59.000 It's been a while since I've seen that movie.

00:38:02.000 Oh, full-on Japanese buck teeth. 0.95

00:38:03.000 Oh, Miss Holly Golightly!

00:38:05.000 Mickey Rooney!

00:38:06.000 It's been a while since I've seen it.

00:38:08.000 But I'll tell you what I did see.

00:38:11.000 Is all of the Popeye cartoons, when I was growing up, the Popeye cartoons that were made in the 40s were all anti-war propaganda.

00:38:19.000 You haven't probably seen those.

00:38:21.000 I don't know that they're even available on YouTube now.

00:38:24.000 But all the Japanese people were drawn with glasses like that thick and buck teeth and everything. 1.00

00:38:29.000 Yeah, it's so.

00:38:30.000 What is that?

00:38:31.000 I've never met a buck-toothed Japanese person either. 1.00

00:38:34.000 I don't know.

00:38:35.000 I haven't either.

00:38:36.000 I've never seen it before.

00:38:38.000 I don't know why that stereotype became popular.

00:38:41.000 Not that it would excuse it, but usually you go like, oh, okay, I can see where they got that.

00:38:45.000 Usually a stereotype has some basis in reality in terms of pattern recognition.

00:38:51.000 That's why it's a stereotype.

00:38:54.000 Yeah, but buck-toothed, I don't think I've ever met an agent who was buck-toothed.

00:38:54.000 Right.

00:38:58.000 I haven't either.

00:38:59.000 I don't know where that came from.

00:39:00.000 It's a very good question.

00:39:02.000 We would have to actually ask...

00:39:05.000 Well, toss it to Twitter.

00:39:06.000 Tweet me at S. Crowder.

00:39:07.000 Who's the Popeye company?

00:39:08.000 I don't know.

00:39:09.000 Somebody will know that.

00:39:11.000 Yeah.

00:39:11.000 The Popeye, people who made?

00:39:12.000 People who made.

00:39:13.000 Did you eat a lot of spinach because of Popeye when you were a kid?

00:39:15.000 Yeah.

00:39:15.000 Were you easily influenced by that?

00:39:17.000 Did you get any stronger?

00:39:17.000 Yeah.

00:39:18.000 No.

00:39:19.000 Little known fact, I'm pretty sure Popeye had something wrong with him.

00:39:22.000 That's not a natural physique with the forearms.

00:39:25.000 Popeye had some highly atrophied biceps.

00:39:28.000 Yes, he did. 0.99

00:39:29.000 Some atrophied ass biceps and some great big old gigantic ass forearms. 0.99

00:39:34.000 I think it was cancerous inflammation, if anything, of the form. 0.99

00:39:39.000 That's not a natural body type.

00:39:42.000 Okay, we were talking about something before that I was trying to get back to.

00:39:45.000 Okay, so if you're in Cleveland, this guy reveals your hotel number.

00:39:48.000 You're a delegate.

00:39:49.000 By the way, for people who don't know...

00:39:52.000 You probably know someone who is a delegate or has been a delegate, can become a delegate.

00:39:56.000 There's this idea, right, that it's just some random guy in Washington, D.C. Delegates are often chosen by their neighbors.

00:40:02.000 You know, they're just a representative.

00:40:03.000 I know a guy.

00:40:04.000 In fact, he was a plumber.

00:40:07.000 We were talking earlier about this guy as a plumber.

00:40:10.000 That was a delegate to the 2012 Republican Convention in Texas.

00:40:16.000 Okay.

00:40:17.000 This is an interesting story.

00:40:19.000 And...

00:40:22.000 It's interesting in that it makes me wonder exactly how they got rid of Jeb, what happened to Jeb.

00:40:28.000 He went down to the 2012, he went through the caucus, the county caucuses and everything, was nominated as a delegate to the Republican Convention in Texas in 2012.

00:40:40.000 And as a result of this thing, he was going to go down there and vote for Ron Paul.

00:40:46.000 Right.

00:40:47.000 He and a bunch of his buddies.

00:40:49.000 By the way, a little known fact for people who don't know, Mitt Romney won some states and Ron Paul won more delegates, same with Texas and Obama and Hillary.

00:40:57.000 I think it was Hillary won Texas, Obama got the delegates, or the other way around, but it's not uncommon for someone to win a state and not win the mustache.

00:41:03.000 Well, and let me finish this story.

00:41:06.000 You'll go.

00:41:07.000 Well, that's interesting.

00:41:09.000 So they go down there, and they get into the convention.

00:41:12.000 And the managers of the convention, I don't know what they call them, stewards or whatever, come around, and they're going to poll the delegates to see who's going to vote for who.

00:41:22.000 Right.

00:41:23.000 So they can kind of plan on what's going on.

00:41:26.000 So...

00:41:27.000 A group of the Ron Paul people are all hanging around together, and they come over and said, who are you guys planning on voting for, for the nominee?

00:41:37.000 And they said, Ron Paul.

00:41:39.000 And they said, no, you're not.

00:41:44.000 And he said, what do you mean?

00:41:45.000 No, I'm not.

00:41:47.000 He said, you're not going to vote for Ron Paul.

00:41:50.000 Wait, who was telling your friend this?

00:41:52.000 The steward.

00:41:53.000 Okay, so your friend is a delegate, so the steward is telling you.

00:41:54.000 My friend is a delegate, the representatives of the RNC in Texas.

00:41:58.000 Right.

00:42:00.000 Said, no, you're not going to vote for Ron Paul.

00:42:03.000 And he said, well, that's what we're here to vote for.

00:42:07.000 And...

00:42:09.000 Was this during a primary, though?

00:42:10.000 This is the preliminary events at the Republican caucus in Texas in 2012.

00:42:19.000 And I may be getting some of the details wrong.

00:42:22.000 Because at that point, wouldn't they be bound if Romney had won their district?

00:42:27.000 Or Santorum or whoever it was at that point?

00:42:29.000 That's a good question.

00:42:31.000 I don't know if the delegates have the ability.

00:42:34.000 You know, there's some talk about this.

00:42:35.000 Now the delegates are essentially functioning autonomously at some level.

00:42:39.000 Right.

00:42:40.000 Right.

00:42:41.000 And that's by design, whether you like it or not.

00:42:43.000 That's designed so that someone doesn't just go, hey, we want Rick because he just killed a guy who we didn't like, and we want to make him president.

00:42:49.000 So you have people who are semi-responsible saying, well, hold on a second, Rick can't be president.

00:42:53.000 There's a reason for it.

00:42:53.000 Right.

00:42:55.000 Well, at any rate, what they did was they took another approach to the problem.

00:42:55.000 Right.

00:43:01.000 They revoked all those people's credentials.

00:43:03.000 As delegates?

00:43:04.000 Yes.

00:43:05.000 And they just assigned someone else?

00:43:06.000 They just threw them out of the buildings.

00:43:10.000 They revoked their credentials.

00:43:12.000 So no, you're not going to vote for Ron Paul.

00:43:15.000 That's one way to do it.

00:43:16.000 Yeah, it's their party.

00:43:18.000 Well, and I guess they may be about to show us that again, huh?

00:43:22.000 It's their party.

00:43:22.000 What?

00:43:24.000 And they get to do with it what they want to.

00:43:24.000 Yeah.

00:43:26.000 They've already shown Bernie how that works.

00:43:29.000 Well, with the superdelegates, with the Democrats.

00:43:31.000 Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

00:43:32.000 There are ways around, you know.

00:43:35.000 But if no one has that magic number going into convention.

00:43:38.000 You know, this democracy thing is kind of inconvenient sometimes.

00:43:41.000 And we're just, hey, we're not going to put up with it.

00:43:43.000 Well, okay, hold on one second.

00:43:44.000 You're not talking about going to someone's hotel room and blowing it away.

00:43:48.000 No, we're not talking about...

00:43:50.000 But if Donald Trump doesn't have that number going into convention, do you think it's unfair at that point to have another ballot where they put him head-to-head with Cruz?

00:43:58.000 Say, okay, get rid of everyone else, put him in a head-to-head, see who wins?

00:44:01.000 Or just give it to Trump because he has the most?

00:44:02.000 I see no other way to...

00:44:04.000 No, no, their rules require 1237.

00:44:06.000 Right.

00:44:07.000 I see no other way than to let the affair play itself out.

00:44:11.000 Now, if 1237 isn't accomplished on the second ballot, and then they trot out Paul Ryan, someone who's never been voted for for president before, and he becomes a nominee, boys and girls, there are going to be problems.

00:44:33.000 There are going to be problems.

00:44:34.000 It wouldn't be the first time that's happened, though.

00:44:36.000 I think it would be the first time for a lot of people in their lifetimes that it's happened.

00:44:41.000 But, Jared, how long are we going on the break here?

00:44:44.000 Oh, all right.

00:44:45.000 Okay.

00:44:46.000 Anyway, we're going to go back in 30 seconds.

00:44:48.000 I don't know.

00:44:48.000 We want to do a web extended version?

00:44:50.000 I don't know.

00:44:50.000 We have a bunch of guests coming on.

00:47:00.000 You're just saying that because I made a mom joke.

00:47:02.000 then, well, you kind of walked into it.

00:47:02.000 No, she's really dead?

00:47:04.000 You've found yourself at the junction where worlds meet.

00:47:15.000 Politics.

00:47:16.000 Civility?

00:47:17.000 How about honesty in this country, folks?

00:47:19.000 Entertainment.

00:47:20.000 I don't like entertainment.

00:47:22.000 And a whole bunch of other stuff.

00:47:25.000 It's about having a healthy body image.

00:47:27.000 You have a very unhealthy body.

00:47:28.000 You should have a horrible body image. 0.96

00:47:30.000 Not a big home improvement market in Detroit.

00:48:05.000 Glad to be back.

00:48:06.000 Glad to be back.

00:48:08.000 Glad to be here.

00:48:09.000 Gadsad evolutionary biologist at the bottom of the hour.

00:48:12.000 So I know we do an entertainment show, but I think this guy might get a little bit smart on us.

00:48:17.000 So give him some room to expand upon his points.

00:48:20.000 He is from Montreal, as I am, so we're excited to have him on.

00:48:23.000 And you can tweet us at SCrowder.

00:48:25.000 Of course, if you're listening live or if you're listening to the archives, you can just come on and tweet me and tell me that you hate me, that I'm a disappointment.

00:48:31.000 So we are going to go straight to this week in social justice warrior leftism, if you A few crazy stories.

00:48:40.000 Crazy, by the way.

00:48:41.000 Remember when we did that video at U of M last year and they wanted to consider crazy a microaggression?

00:48:45.000 Yeah.

00:48:46.000 A hate word?

00:48:47.000 Well, that actually has a lot of momentum behind it now.

00:48:51.000 Because think of how often you hear some of these stories, as we'll tell you about, and you say, that's crazy.

00:48:56.000 They don't want you to say that, so again, it's a way to stop you from replying before it happens.

00:49:02.000 Also, it's a way to cover up crazy.

00:49:04.000 The first thing someone does when they're crazy is tell you they're not crazy.

00:49:08.000 Also, by the way, if someone ever tells you that they're the best at something, nine times out of ten, they're the best at nothing.

00:49:14.000 I've learned that.

00:49:15.000 You picked up on me, huh?

00:49:18.000 You're a quick one, you.

00:49:19.000 You've never said you're the best at anything.

00:49:19.000 Stop it.

00:49:20.000 No, I have not.

00:49:21.000 I don't lie.

00:49:22.000 You don't have that kind of confidence.

00:49:23.000 But there are some stories here this week that many people...

00:49:25.000 My father stripped it from me early.

00:49:27.000 Let's not get into that on there.

00:49:28.000 Not get into that.

00:49:29.000 It gets into some territory where I don't even know if we can still be a family show.

00:49:29.000 Again, illegal.

00:49:33.000 These stories, we've covered them at ladderwithcreditor.com, and people think we're making it up, or they think it's satire.

00:49:38.000 So I want to start with one.

00:49:41.000 That the left believes to be reasonable.

00:49:43.000 And then another one that someone on the left believed to be unreasonable.

00:49:46.000 I just don't think...

00:49:47.000 I think either you're all in or you're not all in.

00:49:50.000 Do we have that first clip ready?

00:49:51.000 Okay, so here's a clip that went online.

00:49:53.000 I think it was at BuzzFeed.

00:49:54.000 Everyone was talking about how beautiful it is.

00:49:55.000 It's a feminist who is married to a man telling her daughter that her husband, the girl's daddy, is now a woman. 0.99

00:50:04.000 And you're supposed to feel good about this.

00:50:05.000 Let's roll the clip.

00:50:08.000 Yeah, how does that make you feel?

00:50:10.000 Good!

00:50:11.000 It does make you feel good?

00:50:13.000 Yeah, I want to be like a boy.

00:50:18.000 You want to be like a boy?

00:50:20.000 Do you?

00:50:20.000 Well, I actually really feel happy as a girl, and I'm going to stay like a girl.

00:50:26.000 Oh, that's nice.

00:50:27.000 But Daddy doesn't feel happy as a boy, so we have decided to help Daddy.

00:50:37.000 Become the person that his brain and his heart tell him that he really is.

00:50:41.000 No.

00:50:42.000 Real?

00:50:42.000 Yes!

00:50:43.000 Exactly!

00:50:44.000 No.

00:50:45.000 Not exactly.

00:50:45.000 So, when Mommy and Daddy went on that date on Saturday, we went and got some new clothes, and we got all new girl clothes, and we got Daddy some makeup.

00:50:57.000 Okay, I want to get to the point where...

00:50:58.000 And now Daddy's going to wear some makeup and wear girls' clothes, and maybe grow Daddy's hair out. 1.00

00:51:03.000 Ugh.

00:51:04.000 Look at this girl's face. 1.00

00:51:06.000 She has no idea.

00:51:07.000 Are you okay with it?

00:51:09.000 Yeah.

00:51:11.000 You know that Daddy's still going to be the same person and still going to be your daddy forever? 0.97

00:51:15.000 Daddy's still going to be mentally ill? 0.91

00:51:16.000 Do you know that? 0.98

00:51:16.000 What do you think of Daddy's new name? 0.98

00:51:20.000 You like it?

00:51:21.000 Yeah, this girl knows the camera is on her. 1.00

00:51:23.000 Can you look at the camera and tell Daddy Mallory what you think?

00:51:27.000 This is happening.

00:51:28.000 It feels good!

00:51:31.000 Can you tell her how much you love her?

00:51:36.000 Debbie is her.

00:51:38.000 Debbie, I love you so much.

00:51:42.000 Even though you're her, I still love you.

00:51:45.000 Aww.

00:51:46.000 That was so sweet.

00:51:48.000 Let's watch that video.

00:51:49.000 Okay, this is the worst.

00:51:51.000 First off, people think you build up these...

00:51:53.000 This is literally the blue-haired, pierced spacers-in-the-ear feminists we make fun of. 1.00

00:51:57.000 This is the woman that Milo checks under his bed for every day.

00:52:01.000 This is the woman who chases Paul Joseph Watson in his nightmares, just this face. 0.73

00:52:06.000 It's borderline child abuse.

00:52:08.000 First off, I hate the gimmick of using children.

00:52:10.000 And what I do love about this, and this is something that people miss, is the response from the child directly correlates to the emotional maturity of the father and the mother.

00:52:21.000 Daddy feels like a girl. 1.00

00:52:22.000 Huh?

00:52:23.000 How do you feel about that?

00:52:24.000 I feel good!

00:52:26.000 Well now you're making life decisions with the exact same moral compass as daddy!

00:52:29.000 That's all that's required.

00:52:31.000 It feels good?

00:52:32.000 Yeah!

00:52:33.000 Why do you feel about rape?

00:52:34.000 Depends how it feels! 0.94

00:52:37.000 How do you feel about genital mutilation?

00:52:39.000 Depends how it feels.

00:52:40.000 We're just going to put you under some anesthetic.

00:52:42.000 Sounds like a party.

00:52:43.000 This is so far off the beam at this point.

00:52:48.000 And people want to act as though this is beautiful.

00:52:50.000 If you speak out against it, this is hate speech, of course.

00:52:53.000 This is child abuse.

00:52:54.000 This girl then goes on to say she wants to be a boy. 0.89

00:52:56.000 And the mom's like, well, you know, we'll consider that.

00:52:58.000 Okay, first off, this woman's a lesbian, okay? 1.00

00:53:00.000 This woman is not attracted to men.

00:53:01.000 Let's just be honest. 1.00

00:53:02.000 This woman is as sick as this guy, okay? 1.00

00:53:05.000 There's some kind of an arrangement. 0.99

00:53:06.000 It's like Bill and Hillary, they're sleeping in separate beds, and he has an intern in his, and she has Oprah's best friend in hers.

00:53:13.000 This is what's going on here, okay?

00:53:16.000 What's her name?

00:53:17.000 Not Stedman, then Oprah's friend's name.

00:53:19.000 I don't know, but you know what's happening.

00:53:20.000 You know exactly what I'm talking about.

00:53:22.000 Oh, yeah.

00:53:23.000 So this is just sickness all around, and we're not supposed to...

00:53:25.000 Real weird stuff.

00:53:26.000 This is why this is important, because it brings us to another story.

00:53:28.000 Because leftists go, well, this is beautiful, and then this other story occurred at Daily Mail, and they don't know how they feel about this.

00:53:34.000 Let me set this up for you.

00:53:36.000 This is someone who calls themselves Dragon Lady. 1.00

00:53:39.000 Tiamat Medusa from Maricopa County, Arizona, has removed his ears and nose and had surgical procedures to become a dragon.

00:53:48.000 Born a man, too.

00:53:49.000 So also a tranny, but a dragon tranny. 0.96

00:53:51.000 Dragon, dragon tails.

00:53:52.000 Okay, let's bring this clip up.

00:53:54.000 Well, Zid, I am Eva Medusa.

00:53:56.000 And to many people who got to know me from years ago, I am also known as No Man Pan.

00:54:06.000 No Man Pan is my prior life.

00:54:09.000 No one knows you as that.

00:54:10.000 You mentioned about my metamorphosis project.

00:54:14.000 Just quickly, my metamorphosis project is basically my transitioning from the No Man Pan, the man that I was, to the Eva that I am now today.

00:54:25.000 I am a father of a great teenage kid.

00:54:30.000 He's a sophomore in high school.

00:54:32.000 Okay, I can't, I can't, I can't.

00:54:35.000 I just threw up a little bit.

00:54:36.000 If you're listening terrestrially, you should really see the video stream to believe what it is.

00:54:41.000 Worse?

00:54:43.000 How could they get any worse?

00:54:44.000 Take a look around you, Alan.

00:54:46.000 We're at the threshold of hell!

00:54:48.000 And this is the guard at hell.

00:54:49.000 This is exactly how I pictured it.

00:54:52.000 So you watch this and you go, that's absurd, right?

00:54:56.000 Someone's trying to turn themselves into a mythical figure.

00:54:59.000 That's impossible.

00:55:01.000 You know what else is impossible?

00:55:02.000 A man turning himself into a woman. 0.56

00:55:05.000 It's not scientifically.

00:55:07.000 It's not physically possible to do.

00:55:10.000 Nobody has a sex change operation that works. 0.93

00:55:13.000 Your body tries to fix it as a wound.

00:55:15.000 Most people don't get it because of that reason.

00:55:17.000 They toss on a dress, and we all have to act like they're a girl, otherwise it's hate speech. 0.59

00:55:20.000 So I was sitting there, and it forced me to do some soul searching.

00:55:24.000 Crazy thing is, I found some dragon ladies in my soul. 1.00

00:55:28.000 So I think we need to call a priest.

00:55:30.000 This is a guy, by the way.

00:55:31.000 This was Richard Hernandez, who then turned into a woman, which would be the first time maybe something mentally wasn't healthy, and now is a dragon.

00:55:39.000 So, the left is trying to say, well, it's perfectly fine for this man to turn into a woman, but going into a dragon, we're not sure if we want to accept that as normal.

00:55:48.000 Okay. 0.96

00:55:49.000 Cut off his ears and nose to become a dragon. 0.99

00:55:52.000 We have the image.

00:55:52.000 If Jared can bring up my screen here, you can see it.

00:55:54.000 Cut off the ears and nose to become a dragon, this person. 0.91

00:55:57.000 Seems absurd. 0.99

00:56:00.000 No more absurd than cutting off your tallywhacker. 0.81

00:56:06.000 You chop off your one-eyed bald man, all of a sudden getting some exaggerated cauliflower wrestler's ear doesn't seem like that big of a deal. 0.94

00:56:13.000 Putting some knobs in your forehead and calling them horns doesn't seem that big of a deal. 0.99

00:56:17.000 Once you cut off your penis and create a wound that you have to repeatedly open, otherwise your body closes it, and you're pumping your body full of hormones that no doubt will put you in a shallow cancerous place. 0.99

00:56:28.000 In that grave in the name of love, however, because we wouldn't want to be intolerant. 0.99

00:56:31.000 What happened when we were talking about organic food and xenoestrogens and BPAs?

00:56:35.000 These people are going to walk around with their steel tumblers and their Nalgene bottles.

00:56:38.000 Why?

00:56:38.000 Well, we want to avoid the contaminations, the BPAs.

00:56:40.000 Well, why?

00:56:41.000 Because it acts like estrogen in the body, and that's cancerous. 0.99

00:56:43.000 What about when you eject that estrogen directly into your balls? 0.99

00:56:46.000 No, no, no, that's cool. 0.99

00:56:47.000 The science isn't in yet.

00:56:49.000 How do you feel about Dragon Lady?

00:56:50.000 Who?

00:56:51.000 The guy who's...

00:56:52.000 Oh, the dragon dude.

00:56:53.000 No, but he wants to be a lady now.

00:56:54.000 Well, I'm cool with the lady part, okay? 0.98

00:56:57.000 I'm not hateful.

00:56:59.000 Not sure how I feel about the dragon part.

00:57:01.000 Are we sure that's not possible?

00:57:03.000 I think we're quite sure that's not possible.

00:57:04.000 Are you sure that's not possible?

00:57:07.000 Yes.

00:57:08.000 I'm quite confident that turning a man into a dragon is not humanly possible.

00:57:15.000 This isn't Game of Thrones.

00:57:16.000 I'm also quite confident that turning a man, Richard Hernandez, into a woman is not possible. 0.96

00:57:23.000 By quite certain, I mean 100%.

00:57:26.000 Who are the science deniers, by the way?

00:57:28.000 This is Leonardo DiCaprio and leftists come out.

00:57:30.000 Republicans are anti-science.

00:57:32.000 Is there any more settled science than human DNA? I don't think so.

00:57:36.000 I think it's pretty much in. 1.00

00:57:38.000 That's the great thing about, you know, your penis. 1.00

00:57:38.000 The verdict's in. 1.00

00:57:41.000 As a young boy, you have your own veritable Petri dish.

00:57:44.000 You're a walking experiment.

00:57:45.000 And every boy has tested multiple hypotheses through their teenage years.

00:57:51.000 It is testable.

00:57:52.000 Verifiable science.

00:57:53.000 Am I a boy?

00:57:54.000 Okay.

00:57:55.000 Well, here's a list of tests that you can do.

00:57:58.000 It's really just two, but you can do them in a multitude of ways.

00:58:02.000 Put your own signature on it.

00:58:03.000 Here you go.

00:58:05.000 Draw your own conclusions.

00:58:07.000 Draw your own conclusions.

00:58:08.000 We're pretty sure you're a boy.

00:58:11.000 The reason I wanted to include these two together is, again, you can't say, you can't start off with men and women are fundamentally interchangeable, which is required for same-sex marriage, which is required for this trans, LGBTQ, AAIP, real acronym movement, and then all of a sudden say, well, listen, we don't know how we feel about the dragon situation.

00:58:30.000 Do we need to create dragon bathrooms, by the way? 0.79

00:58:34.000 That is a great question.

00:58:35.000 Again, back to the cancer, you have to bring asbestos back.

00:58:38.000 We can't have people just breathing fire in public bathrooms. 0.99

00:58:41.000 It's true, especially if it's a hay bathroom, which I think that's what dragons go on. 0.99

00:58:45.000 It's just kind of like pallets of hay.

00:58:48.000 That's highly flammable.

00:58:49.000 One can make the case that it's a safety hazard.

00:58:53.000 I would argue one can make a relatively firm case.

00:58:57.000 But it's just opinion.

00:58:58.000 Stay tuned. 0.63

00:58:59.000 Do you have a problem taking a piss? 1.00

00:59:17.000 Is your prostate the size of a racquetball caught? 0.99

00:59:21.000 Do you find yourself going to the restroom and asking, is there a better way? 0.96

00:59:26.000 Well, I'm Sheldon Silver of SelfLubricatingPocketCatheters.com here to tell you there is a better way with my self-lubricating pocket catheters.

00:59:37.000 As if catheters weren't enough of a pain already, who has the time to lubricate it properly?

00:59:43.000 With Sheldon Silver's self-lubricating pocket catheters, your process is made easy and largely painless.

00:59:50.000 Just listen to these testimonials.

00:59:53.000 I tell you, it's a lot easier than my old catheter.

00:59:55.000 I just grab this here, and I think...

00:59:58.000 Results may vary, but if you're listening to this on AM radio or cable news, chances are you're in the demographic of somebody who needs this life-changing product.

01:00:10.000 That's SheldonSilverSelfLubricatingPocketCatheters.com.

01:00:14.000 It's been good to you for years. 1.00

01:00:16.000 It's time to treat your dick better. 1.00

01:00:22.000 Glad to be back. 1.00

01:00:40.000 Coming up at the bottom of the hours, we have Gadsad, evolutionary biologist.

01:00:43.000 He'll class up the show because it's taken a weird turn.

01:00:46.000 This whole program has taken a weird turn.

01:00:47.000 Yeah, it's taken a very bizarre.

01:00:48.000 Anytime you introduce trainees, though, it's bound to do that.

01:00:51.000 That's a hate word. 0.98

01:00:52.000 Transgender. 0.97

01:00:53.000 Well, it's certainly a different Google search.

01:00:56.000 Trainees versus transgender. 1.00

01:00:57.000 You want to be careful.

01:00:58.000 I know that you've had to make that search multiple times.

01:01:00.000 By the way, if you hear this crumpling...

01:01:01.000 For work!

01:01:02.000 For work.

01:01:02.000 If you hear this crumpling, I don't know what happened.

01:01:07.000 Four hours ago, my throat just closed shut, just got swollen, and I just, I think I have a fever?

01:01:14.000 I don't know what happened.

01:01:15.000 We said Bernie Sanders did that to you.

01:01:17.000 It might have been, you know, we did the video with Bernie Sanders, and it's pretty tough on the vocal cords, but I have no idea what happened.

01:01:22.000 So if I seem a little out of sorts, if anything, I probably see more on mic.

01:01:27.000 I probably see more normal.

01:01:28.000 I probably see more on point.

01:01:30.000 It's true.

01:01:31.000 So I don't know.

01:01:32.000 Maybe I need to inject myself with a virus every single week just so I can be more professional and on equal terms with my AM talk radio brethren.

01:01:40.000 We can swap blood.

01:01:41.000 I got a surprise for you.

01:01:42.000 Well, I wanted to let you know, you might have a lawsuit pending for the last time you gave blood.

01:01:51.000 I know you wanted to do the right thing.

01:01:53.000 They told me it was the right thing.

01:01:56.000 No, you lied on your questionnaire.

01:01:59.000 I need to get going.

01:01:59.000 We need to bring back Chad with AIDS sometime to talk about this soon.

01:02:02.000 We need to bring him back.

01:02:03.000 A lot of people didn't think he was really...

01:02:05.000 If every other gay guy who talks out or who speaks just against the regressive left, people say he's not gay.

01:02:05.000 That's the thing.

01:02:11.000 Funny, there are more people with conspiracies that I'm gay and Milo's not than just accepting things how they are.

01:02:16.000 Speaking of which, I want to play this.

01:02:20.000 Video for you.

01:02:21.000 This happened this week.

01:02:22.000 It was trending all over.

01:02:23.000 Governor Rick Scott of Florida.

01:02:24.000 Listen, I'm not necessarily a huge fan of Rick Scott, okay?

01:02:27.000 This is not an endorsement of Rick Scott.

01:02:29.000 Because I mentioned somebody doesn't mean that I love the person, and I do think the guy looks like Skeletor.

01:02:33.000 We all know that.

01:02:35.000 This woman was yelling at him in a Starbucks in Florida, and everyone praised this woman as a hero.

01:02:42.000 So I want you to hear for yourself, and then we'll come back, and I think you can guess my own opinion.

01:02:48.000 Jared, do you have the clip?

01:02:49.000 Let's roll it, baby.

01:02:50.000 In fact, you cut Medicaid so I couldn't get Obamacare. 1.00

01:02:53.000 You're an asshole! 1.00

01:02:55.000 You don't care about working people. 1.00

01:02:56.000 I'm not talking to you.

01:02:58.000 You don't care about working people. 0.97

01:02:59.000 You should be ashamed to show your face around me.

01:03:03.000 A million jobs?

01:03:04.000 Great.

01:03:05.000 Who here has a great job?

01:03:07.000 Probably everyone working in Starbucks.

01:03:10.000 You really feel like you have a job coming up?

01:03:12.000 You strict women of access to public health care. 1.00

01:03:16.000 Shame on you, Rick Scott.

01:03:18.000 We depend on those services.

01:03:20.000 Rich people like you don't know what to do.

01:03:23.000 When poor people like us need health services, you cut them.

01:03:26.000 Shame on you, Rick Scott. 0.99

01:03:28.000 You're an embarrassment to our state. 0.99

01:03:30.000 Alright. 0.99

01:03:31.000 This is just so emblematic of the left.

01:03:34.000 Of feeling the need.

01:03:36.000 First off, no one has jobs here.

01:03:39.000 And nobody backs her.

01:03:40.000 She's looking around expecting them to back her up.

01:03:42.000 Let me tell you something. 0.99

01:03:43.000 Screaming, crazy, cackling hag. 1.00

01:03:46.000 Here's why people haven't backed you up. 1.00

01:03:48.000 First off, you insulted all of them because you're a horrendous witch on wheels. 1.00

01:03:53.000 Nobody likes you because you're not a nice person. 1.00

01:03:56.000 They told the people, shut up, I'm not talking to you. 0.92

01:03:58.000 Second, they're not backing you up because they're working.

01:04:03.000 Does anybody here have jobs?

01:04:04.000 As she says it, someone's pouring coffee?

01:04:07.000 Job.

01:04:08.000 Someone's grinding coffee?

01:04:09.000 Job.

01:04:09.000 Someone's taking your order?

01:04:10.000 Job.

01:04:11.000 And you are sitting there, I'm guessing that Lenovo MacBook, not Mac, people are going to get mad, that Lenovo laptop.

01:04:19.000 I haven't used the word laptop in forever.

01:04:21.000 You think MacBook, iPad?

01:04:22.000 I bet you that Lenovo, I can't say it again, laptop.

01:04:25.000 Laptop. 0.98

01:04:26.000 I'm a retard! 0.95

01:04:27.000 I just... 0.97

01:04:28.000 I am dead inside.

01:04:29.000 I don't know what is happening to my mouth.

01:04:31.000 Blame it on the fever.

01:04:32.000 I bet it's not homemade.

01:04:34.000 You are sitting in a Starbucks on a custom laptop, bitching about how nobody has jobs, surrounded by people who are working.

01:04:44.000 Maybe it's just you.

01:04:45.000 Also, if you don't have a job, if you're poor, probably not your best idea to be spending eight times the amount on coffee if you made it at home.

01:04:57.000 The wealthiest, 0.1%.

01:04:59.000 I do okay.

01:05:01.000 Jared's employed.

01:05:03.000 Good for us.

01:05:06.000 I don't go to Starbucks every day.

01:05:08.000 I almost never go to Starbucks.

01:05:10.000 I don't like Starbucks.

01:05:12.000 I don't begrudge people who go to Starbucks.

01:05:14.000 This lady, yes. 0.91

01:05:15.000 But that's because I judge people as individuals. 0.97

01:05:18.000 And she is Satan.

01:05:20.000 So, the funny thing is, is we have all these tweets of people, oh, she's such a hero, more Americans need to do this.

01:05:26.000 Really?

01:05:27.000 More Americans need to do this? 0.97

01:05:28.000 How about you write your representative?

01:05:31.000 How about you vote?

01:05:32.000 How about you release a video?

01:05:33.000 Maybe you make a phone call.

01:05:35.000 How about when someone is going in to get a cup of coffee, you don't yell profanities in a family establishment that are based in nothing more than your own delusions. 1.00

01:05:45.000 Also, let's avoid being a bitch. 1.00

01:05:46.000 That would be something I would recommend you start with. 1.00

01:05:51.000 You know, because you catch more bees with non-bitch honey. 1.00

01:05:59.000 The recipe isn't complicated. 0.98

01:06:00.000 No, it's raw honey.

01:06:02.000 Well, it is.

01:06:04.000 Also, it would be good for your throat right now.

01:06:05.000 It would be good for my throat right now.

01:06:06.000 I need to get some honey to smooth my throat over.

01:06:08.000 Man, could you imagine if I had to do an impression of this woman?

01:06:10.000 Ugh. 0.99

01:06:11.000 If this woman is married, I bet you it's like that guy with the blue-haired feminist who wants to become a tranny. 1.00

01:06:18.000 It's one of those situations where it's like, eh, yeah... 0.95

01:06:21.000 I'll marry you.

01:06:22.000 Just make sure I have my alone time.

01:06:24.000 Well, we know that they're not getting married for the money.

01:06:27.000 Because she apparently, you know... 1.00

01:06:28.000 Doesn't work.

01:06:29.000 Doesn't work.

01:06:29.000 Everyone complains about how they don't work.

01:06:31.000 My favorite line was, we don't have good jobs.

01:06:35.000 Oh, you should.

01:06:36.000 You seem very nice.

01:06:38.000 You seem like a very nice lady.

01:06:39.000 As he smiles and walks out the door.

01:06:41.000 Listen, you know what?

01:06:42.000 Maybe, I don't know if you put cackling, angry shrew on your job application.

01:06:48.000 Generally speaking, they weed you out before it gets to the callback.

01:06:55.000 Everyone wants to act as though, and everyone has done this at a certain point.

01:06:59.000 Where you don't want to acknowledge that it's your fault.

01:07:02.000 People make excuses.

01:07:04.000 And George St.

01:07:05.000 Pierre talked about this.

01:07:06.000 A champion, at some point, the difference between a champion, the difference between somebody who succeeds and who doesn't, is they have to look themselves in the mirror at some point honestly and say, okay, did I do something wrong?

01:07:15.000 What did I do wrong?

01:07:17.000 How can I fix it?

01:07:18.000 What you can control, you address.

01:07:20.000 You know that a woman like this, who people are praising as a hero, she doesn't have a job because of Rick Scott.

01:07:28.000 She can't afford abortions because of Rick Scott or because of probably Marco Rubio, right? 0.92

01:07:34.000 It's somebody else's fault.

01:07:35.000 Somebody else should pay for her birth control, despite the fact that you can get a 25-cent rubber at a truck stop. 1.00

01:07:40.000 I know she's probably allergic to latex.

01:07:42.000 All of a sudden, every person who follows Sandra Fluke is allergic to latex.

01:07:47.000 Everything is somebody else's fault.

01:07:50.000 And if I'm sounding like a broken record, that is the biggest problem.

01:07:54.000 And you see it on the right as well as on the left.

01:07:56.000 Listen, you lost a primary.

01:07:58.000 That's your fault.

01:08:00.000 You don't have a job.

01:08:01.000 Maybe that's your fault.

01:08:02.000 Speaking of which, scientist after the break.

01:08:04.000 break.

01:08:04.000 Gadsad.

01:08:05.000 Stay tuned.

01:08:33.000 And now for episode 245, a Game of Thrones fandom podcast.

01:08:39.000 So, did you see that this week, Eugene?

01:08:42.000 The episode? 0.98

01:08:44.000 Did you see with a lot of boobs in it? 1.00

01:08:44.000 Yeah! 1.00

01:08:46.000 Yeah!

01:08:47.000 We'll be back with Installment 342 as the Game of Thrones fandom podcast.

01:08:53.000 We'll be back with Installment 342

01:09:23.000 What you think.

01:09:25.000 Alright, glad to bring on our next guest.

01:09:27.000 So, it happened on Twitter organically.

01:09:29.000 Some people were calling for this to happen.

01:09:32.000 We're swinging above our batting average, bringing this guy here.

01:09:35.000 He's a scholar.

01:09:35.000 You can watch his YouTube channel.

01:09:37.000 I highly recommend it.

01:09:38.000 Gad Saad.

01:09:39.000 That's G-A-D-S-A-A-D. Before the break, Senior Saad was actually coaching me on how to say it with the proper Middle Eastern way.

01:09:48.000 How do I do that, sir?

01:09:50.000 Gad Saad.

01:09:51.000 Gad Saad.

01:09:53.000 Kind of.

01:09:54.000 Pretty good.

01:09:55.000 I think it would embarrass me right off the bat.

01:09:58.000 It puts us on an even playing field where it puts me below.

01:10:01.000 So, you're from Montreal.

01:10:03.000 We were talking about that.

01:10:03.000 I always hear this accent.

01:10:05.000 It's Greek, Lebanese a lot, too, where I went to Centennial on the South Shore.

01:10:08.000 There's always that sound.

01:10:10.000 Yes, there is a unique sound to the Montreal accent, but maybe it's also mixed with the fact that I'm originally from Lebanon.

01:10:20.000 I grew up in Lebanon and came to Montreal when I was 11.

01:10:24.000 I don't know if there is any remnant of an accent there.

01:10:27.000 Plus, of course, I speak French and Hebrew, so I'm really the United Nation linguistically.

01:10:33.000 Yes, you are.

01:10:35.000 Speaking of which, we can get to the United Nations right off the bat.

01:10:38.000 But yeah, Montreal is funny.

01:10:39.000 We had a lot of Lebanese there at Centennial, a lot of Middle Eastern people.

01:10:43.000 We had very, very mixed.

01:10:44.000 Is Amir still a franchise there in Montreal?

01:10:47.000 Amir, yes they are, yes.

01:10:49.000 Amir, yes.

01:10:49.000 Oh, okay.

01:10:50.000 Yeah, when I tell people, yeah, it was like a McDonald's of Lebanese restaurants.

01:10:52.000 You had them everywhere.

01:10:53.000 They're like, what, really?

01:10:54.000 Yeah, it's very common, very diverse.

01:10:56.000 So, you, sir, you teach at Concordia, University of Montreal.

01:10:59.000 You have degrees from McGill.

01:11:00.000 One thing that fascinated me, so right off the bat, people were going, you have to go on, have Gad said on your show.

01:11:06.000 And then all these comments saying, oh my gosh, why would you do a show?

01:11:06.000 I said, sure.

01:11:09.000 This is going to be nuclear.

01:11:11.000 And when I looked at your videos, I didn't see a whole lot that I disagreed with.

01:11:15.000 Certainly not anything that I thought was unreasonable.

01:11:18.000 Why do you think that was the reaction?

01:11:20.000 Am I missing something?

01:11:21.000 I think, you know, people use these fast and frugal strategies when they're thinking, and it's easy to label people.

01:11:28.000 So it's harder to try to worry about what Steven Crowder really thinks.

01:11:33.000 Let's just call him sort of a right-wing neocon Nazi, and then we can move on.

01:11:38.000 But it's true, right?

01:11:39.000 I mean, that's how people operate, right?

01:11:41.000 I mean, that's how stereotypes are made.

01:11:42.000 That's how racism is created.

01:11:43.000 It just allows for people to generalize and simplify the world.

01:11:47.000 So why engage with Stephen's idea?

01:11:50.000 Just label him as somebody that you shouldn't be talking to and move on.

01:11:53.000 What's funny, though, is, I mean, well, now, obviously, I get the Nazi references and then the anti-Semitic stuff.

01:11:58.000 So I get both right.

01:11:59.000 It was a lot of fun.

01:12:00.000 A lot of fun.

01:12:01.000 Get both sides of that coin.

01:12:03.000 So you get that you're anti-Semitic?

01:12:05.000 No, I get anti-Semitic.

01:12:06.000 People think I'm Jewish.

01:12:08.000 So all the time.

01:12:08.000 Oh, I see.

01:12:09.000 Like actual Nazi propaganda.

01:12:10.000 And I mean, we were talking about this with Ben Shapiro.

01:12:13.000 I was like, you know, it's kind of funny to me because I'm used to it.

01:12:16.000 But like with Ben Shapiro, I'm like, gosh, that's going to be tough if you're actually Jewish getting that stuff.

01:12:20.000 So people need to make up their mind.

01:12:22.000 But you're from Montreal.

01:12:23.000 So I am right wing.

01:12:25.000 It didn't exist in Montreal, and there were liberals and liberal separatists, really, when I was there.

01:12:29.000 And you've done actually a lot of research regarding sort of political correctness and the social justice warrior left.

01:12:36.000 How would you describe yourself?

01:12:38.000 Would you say probably left, I guess, fiscally and more right socially?

01:12:44.000 You know, first of all, it's going to sound strange to say this, but I despise labels.

01:12:49.000 I take each issue and then I take a position on that particular issue.

01:12:53.000 So I would consider myself probably libertarian.

01:12:57.000 When it comes to social issues, I'm very liberal.

01:13:00.000 When it comes to issues such as perhaps, say, immigration, some might think I'm a bit more conservative.

01:13:06.000 And so it really depends.

01:13:08.000 For example, I'm for the death penalty.

01:13:09.000 I think that it is not true that under all circumstances to kill somebody is immoral and barbaric. 0.97

01:13:16.000 If you've raped and sodomized and killed 20 children, then maybe you lose your right to live. 0.68

01:13:23.000 So I'm really all over the place. 0.99

01:13:25.000 I really judge each issue on its own merits.

01:13:28.000 I don't think that's all over the place.

01:13:29.000 I don't think that's all over the place.

01:13:31.000 We have this sort of, what is that little quadrant graph now that's really famous, that's so incredibly biased to the left.

01:13:37.000 The questions are, do you believe that corporations should only operate in the interest of the shareholders?

01:13:43.000 And I was like, that's not true.

01:13:45.000 So everyone's to the left.

01:13:46.000 It just gives people kind of an idea, especially America, the United States, Montreal.

01:13:51.000 It's a whole different world, and a lot of people aren't necessarily aware.

01:13:54.000 But you've done some research.

01:13:56.000 You've talked a lot about sort of political correctness, this rise of the social justice left.

01:14:02.000 Now, obviously, I haven't read all of it, but what is it that has captured your attention with this so much as someone from my show?

01:14:08.000 So just to kind of a slight correction, I mean, my main area of research is in applying biology and evolutionary psychology to study human behavior.

01:14:16.000 The way I got into the whole political correctness issue is not so much, if you like, through my research, but rather as a public intellectual, one of the self-imposed mandates that I sort of pursue is I tackle bad ideas wherever I find them, right? 0.98

01:14:32.000 So if I think, for example, radical feminists espouse some stupidity, Then I feel compelled to tackle it. 0.98

01:14:38.000 If I think that postmodernism is a bunch of gibberish nonsense, then I will tackle it. 0.99

01:14:42.000 So in a sense, I like to consider myself as a slayer of bad ideas.

01:14:46.000 And so I use science, I use reason, I use logic to tackle all bad ideas.

01:14:51.000 Please let the record show that it was Mr.

01:14:53.000 Sad who said that he would tackle feminists, not myself.

01:14:56.000 Continue, sir.

01:14:58.000 That's going to be played out of loop like a morphine drip on feminist frequency, my friend. 1.00

01:15:02.000 Watch your microaggressing language.

01:15:04.000 It's not as though I've just outed myself. 1.00

01:15:08.000 You just have to do a Google search and you see how many times I've gone after some of the stupidity that they espouse. 0.99

01:15:13.000 But it's not common at all in Montreal. 1.00

01:15:13.000 Oh, sure. 1.00

01:15:17.000 It really isn't.

01:15:18.000 I remember when I was doing stand-up comedy, and really the conservatives there...

01:15:22.000 Funny story, actually, Concordia.

01:15:24.000 Concordia is one of the places where I was banned.

01:15:26.000 Andrew Searles and Mike Mayo, we did a show at their kind of pub there.

01:15:30.000 And Andrew Searles was a black guy.

01:15:31.000 And kids went up and just talked about how offended they were.

01:15:33.000 They were booing and protesting jokes.

01:15:36.000 And I remember thinking, this was really, really weird for comedy.

01:15:40.000 But that was the environment in Montreal.

01:15:42.000 And we just had Mike Ward on, who was put before Human Rights Tribunal.

01:15:45.000 So, do you think you've taken up this mantle, I guess, particularly as you said, of a public intellectual?

01:15:50.000 Let's put the research to one side, because you're in an area where there just aren't many people expressing these ideas.

01:15:57.000 It's not even on the radar for a lot of French Canadians, or English Canadians.

01:16:01.000 Although I would say that what you just described is not, strictly speaking, true of Quebec in particular.

01:16:08.000 Rather, it's of academia in general, right?

01:16:10.000 It's not as though at Wellesley College, outside of Boston, you're going to have, you know, bastions of freedom of speech walking around on campus.

01:16:17.000 So I really think it's a problem that is endemic to the academic atmosphere that is I think that's fair, but I think it's different in Montreal, again, because, you know, my brother went to UT in Austin, for example.

01:16:31.000 So, you know, he did the Fulcesia situation scholarship at UT Austin Film School.

01:16:34.000 So not a bastion of right-wing conservatism.

01:16:37.000 And the leftism, I guess, for lack of a better word, in Montreal was that of ignorance because they hadn't even been exposed to ideas.

01:16:44.000 Whereas in Austin, it was very aggressive because they were fighting back against sort of Texas culture.

01:16:50.000 So I would say people just seem far less informed in Montreal as it relates to freedom of speech and these ideas.

01:16:57.000 I mean, perhaps.

01:16:58.000 But again, in my case, what compels me is just it's my genetic makeup. 1.00

01:17:02.000 It's the random combination that make up who I am that I get genuinely offended by stupidity. 0.99

01:17:08.000 And therefore, I go after it in all of its forms. 0.96

01:17:11.000 I almost feel as though I'm cheating truth if I don't go after people's bad ideas.

01:17:18.000 And so to the extent that...

01:17:19.000 You know, all the social justice warrior and all the microaggressions and safe spaces is complete lunacy. 1.00

01:17:26.000 Then I feel that I have to speak out against it, and I only wish that some of my colleagues would take up the mantle with me.

01:17:31.000 Have you faced a lot of backlash with professors?

01:17:35.000 I have not, actually.

01:17:36.000 Not at all.

01:17:37.000 It's funny because Gavin McInnes recently, him and I had a chat, and we had a chat earlier also last fall, and he's just astonished that I don't get more backlash.

01:17:47.000 His theory is that I just look as though I'm very nice, as if I'm a cross between a puppy and Santa Claus, which I don't really like that particular analogy because it kind of emasculates me.

01:17:58.000 I'd like to think that I've got a lot more testosterone in me than a But apparently something in my delivery, maybe because I'm measured, maybe because I don't engage in hyperbole, people don't actually attack me too often.

01:18:13.000 I do get hate mail, but not too often.

01:18:15.000 Do you engage in some hyperbole on Twitter?

01:18:19.000 Yeah, you're right.

01:18:21.000 Well, it's not a bad thing.

01:18:23.000 There's nothing wrong with it if it's done in addendum to a reasonable argument.

01:18:27.000 Like, ad hominem in place of an argument, yeah, you throw it away.

01:18:30.000 But ad hominem in addendum, it can be fantastic.

01:18:33.000 And usually, I mean, I think what you're probably referring to is sort of my satirical style, where I try to demonstrate the lunacy of something by actually satirizing it to death.

01:18:43.000 So, for example, I've gone after Bill Nye, not so much because I want to go after Bill Nye, the person, but because he espoused the position that I thought was so obnoxious and grotesque that I just can't let it sleep.

01:18:56.000 And then people would write back to me and say, okay, well, I mean, the horse is dead.

01:18:59.000 Stop beating it.

01:19:00.000 I say, no, when you have this kind of public platform and you try to argue that the crisis in Syria and all over the Middle East is in part driven by climate change, I'm going to come after you.

01:19:13.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:19:14.000 That's the mainstream thing right now, climate change.

01:19:16.000 Or these people just need jobs.

01:19:18.000 That's a big thing, though, too.

01:19:19.000 Obviously, speaking out against Islam in Montreal is a problem for a lot of people.

01:19:24.000 I have a different theory on that.

01:19:25.000 I don't think it's because you look like a puppy in Santa Claus.

01:19:27.000 I think, again, it sort of stems back to the ignorance in that in the United States... 0.70

01:19:31.000 Now, I don't say ignorance.

01:19:32.000 I mean ignorance. 0.99

01:19:32.000 I don't mean stupid. 0.99

01:19:33.000 I mean, in the United States, we've had to invent these terms, safe spaces, or trigger warnings. 0.97

01:19:38.000 Why?

01:19:38.000 Because the baseline, your trail of breadcrumbs back out of the forest, is the First Amendment.

01:19:43.000 You have to somehow refute that or argue against something that's inherently flawed in the First Amendment to uphold that view in the United States.

01:19:50.000 In Montreal, they've not really needed to create those terms, or in Quebec, where I was raised, because...

01:19:55.000 Freedom of speech isn't an inherent right.

01:19:57.000 I mean, I experienced that firsthand.

01:19:59.000 A lot of Americans don't realize until they go there.

01:20:01.000 So I think you're throwing seven different kinds of smoke they're not even talking about yet.

01:20:07.000 Right.

01:20:07.000 I mean, that's perhaps true.

01:20:09.000 I'd also say that there isn't the same sense of entitlement in university campuses in Canada as there is in the U.S., perhaps in part because you don't, I mean, the tuitions are not nearly the same.

01:20:21.000 And so I've noticed I've taught at Cornell and at Dartmouth and at UC Irvine.

01:20:25.000 And while, of course, I respect all those schools and I love the students there, they tend to have slightly more of a chip on their shoulders, probably because they pay five, ten times more for their education.

01:20:35.000 And so, therefore, it's easier to have a victimhood sort of ethos when you feel that entitled.

01:20:42.000 Whereas when in Quebec, almost everything is semi-free, maybe you don't have quite the same chip on your shoulder, right?

01:20:47.000 Well, until you try and raise tuition by, what, $200 like we had now.

01:20:51.000 Then you have protesting in the streets alongside sinkholes.

01:20:54.000 That was a summer from hell.

01:20:56.000 I was telling my friends there were sinkholes in Montreal.

01:20:56.000 Remember that?

01:20:58.000 I was like, what are you talking about?

01:20:59.000 Like, tremors?

01:21:00.000 No, this is an actual thing.

01:21:02.000 You had a bunch of them in Montreal, right?

01:21:05.000 Even the sinkholes?

01:21:06.000 It was a real problem.

01:21:06.000 Yeah, the sinkholes.

01:21:08.000 Just very close to our house.

01:21:08.000 Oh, yeah.

01:21:10.000 If you drive within five minutes from our house, it's basically as though you're driving in a third world.

01:21:19.000 Well, yeah, and there are a lot of things I love about Montreal.

01:21:21.000 But speaking of that, you know, students, like you said, see, I definitely feel, I guess, financially students think they're entitled.

01:21:27.000 When I was there, I want to say McGill might have been a couple thousand a year, and that seems like it would be stretching it.

01:21:32.000 When I left in 2003, In 2005, it was 50-something million dollars in debt.

01:21:38.000 Last I checked, it was over 70.

01:21:40.000 Do you know what the number is on that now?

01:21:41.000 But it's horrible.

01:21:42.000 I don't.

01:21:43.000 But I can tell you.

01:21:43.000 I don't.

01:21:44.000 So when I went, I did my undergrad and MBA at McGill.

01:21:48.000 So the whole thing took six years.

01:21:50.000 Yeah.

01:21:51.000 I paid, if I remember correctly, so this is 84 to 1990, I paid, I think, $440 a semester.

01:22:00.000 So I got an undergrad in math and computer science and an MBA probably for about $5,000, $6,000.

01:22:05.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:22:06.000 And Americans hear that and they get jealous, but when you look at the numbers, the crushing debt, and it's just hard to upkeep these programs with McGill.

01:22:13.000 Or just our taxes, right?

01:22:15.000 I mean, people think it's free.

01:22:16.000 It's not free.

01:22:17.000 Basically, I've got $4 left to my name at the end of every year.

01:22:20.000 Right.

01:22:21.000 Well, it's the highest marginal tax rate.

01:22:22.000 Is it still 52 in Quebec?

01:22:24.000 I think it's somewhere around there.

01:22:26.000 And then, of course, you add the sales tax, you add this tax, you add that tax.

01:22:29.000 I probably take, at the end of it, maybe 35 cents to the dollar.

01:22:33.000 Yeah.

01:22:34.000 Yeah, we did those rates, I remember, in a video on Canadian health care when I was at PJTV, and people thought I was lying.

01:22:40.000 And I was, no, these are the actual effective marginal tax rates.

01:22:43.000 And everyone just said, there's no way.

01:22:45.000 This is propaganda.

01:22:46.000 So, okay, we'll talk more about that when we get back.

01:22:47.000 We have to go to a break.

01:22:48.000 YouTube.com slash Gadsad.

01:22:50.000 Two A's, because you've got to say it the Middle Eastern way properly.

01:22:53.000 Light it with Kreider.

01:22:54.000 Crider, stay tuned.

01:22:54.000 This is Jeff Federline of GoldWire.com to tell you about this unique,

01:23:14.000 Not only can you purchase solid blocks of gold from goldwire.com, which is the perfect hedge against an inflating dollar, but now, for a limited time only, I am selling my personal gold watches, gold chalices, gold rings, bracelets, and even my gold tooth.

01:23:32.000 Why?

01:23:33.000 I have so much gold, I don't know what to do with it, and I want to see everybody else do as well in this horrible economy as I have with gold.

01:23:42.000 Gold has been so good to me that I can 100% recommend, without any legal liability whatsoever, that it is the only investment you need in your portfolio.

01:23:52.000 That is goldwire.com to purchase my personal gold items, including my gold tooth.

01:23:57.000 When the s*** goes down, you'll be glad you have my gold.

01:24:04.000 When it's on a party, we will party hard. 0.97

01:24:07.000 All right.

01:24:32.000 We are glad to have this guest back right now.

01:24:34.000 Right into it.

01:24:34.000 You can follow his channel.

01:24:35.000 Highly recommend you check it out.

01:24:37.000 Gadsad, S-A-A-D, from Montreal.

01:24:40.000 Professor, scholar, thank you for being back with us.

01:24:43.000 So what would you say is the most important issue that you touch upon?

01:24:46.000 Sort of, I guess, binding your research in psychology with where you found a niche, obviously, in social media and being a public intellectual.

01:24:54.000 So you're talking about in terms of my scientific research?

01:24:57.000 Yes.

01:24:58.000 So, I mean, the ultimate goal has always been from the start of my being a professor to Darwinize the behavioral sciences.

01:25:07.000 And what I mean by that...

01:25:10.000 Much of the social sciences have existed in a world where biology is relevant for the mosquito and the zebra and the giraffe, but somehow it is not relevant to human behavior because the argument has been that what makes us human is that we transcend our biology.

01:25:24.000 We are a cultural animal.

01:25:26.000 That's what makes us different from the zebra.

01:25:28.000 And there are all sorts of interesting reasons why that arose.

01:25:32.000 I mean, why the abdication of biology happened.

01:25:34.000 And so what I wanted to do was really use the explanatory framework of evolutionary psychology to explain specifically consumer behavior.

01:25:43.000 The idea being that you can't fully understand consumption or our consumatory nature without understanding the biological foundations of what makes us consume.

01:25:51.000 So really, much of my research revolves around that central grand objective.

01:25:56.000 Right.

01:25:57.000 Now, how does that work now with the trans-everything movement?

01:26:00.000 I mean, the most sexist transphobic people in the world must be biological researchers or doctors.

01:26:05.000 It's the first question you have to fill out in the questionnaire.

01:26:09.000 Well, I mean, I don't specifically study those trans issues, although I do have a doctoral student that's currently with me.

01:26:16.000 We're interested in looking at homosexual consumers to see whether certain phenomena that we study in a heterosexual context, for example, gift-giving courtship rituals that happen between men and women, Would they replicate amongst a homosexual context?

01:26:36.000 For example, if you are a top or a bottom, which is a sex role that you take, you're predominantly either the passive or the...

01:26:43.000 This is a family-friendly show, and I also resent that premise.

01:26:46.000 I know for a fact from several guests on this show that they can be interchangeable, sir.

01:26:49.000 How dare you?

01:26:51.000 You're absolutely right.

01:26:52.000 But what we're trying to look actually for are the ones who are predominantly one or the other.

01:26:52.000 They are versatile.

01:26:56.000 So the guys who are sort of doing both ways, maybe we'd keep them out.

01:27:01.000 And then to see whether some of the heterosexual phenomena that we've documented would also manifest themselves in a homosexual context.

01:27:09.000 So that's the extent to which I've looked at some of the things that you're looking at in the context of consumer behavior.

01:27:14.000 Right.

01:27:14.000 Well, the reason I ask is because with the trans issue, I mean, we have tried to throw that out the window.

01:27:18.000 Biology, gender is non-binary. 0.79

01:27:20.000 Of course, if you question it, you're anti-science.

01:27:23.000 I would think that, as opposed to climate science, DNA would, one could argue, is more settled.

01:27:29.000 I certainly have heard people made that case, and I was convinced.

01:27:32.000 So I wonder what that's like teaching in that realm today, if people have to tiptoe around it, depending on whether a student gets offended or not.

01:27:39.000 Because you have states now that ban sending people to counseling who want to mutilate their genitals because it's considered hate thought, hate speech.

01:27:47.000 So that's why I was curious.

01:27:49.000 I mean, the context in which I see these types of issues, not the trans issue, but sort of sex differences, is in the context of whether there are any sex differences that are actually innate other than genitalia, or whether everything is due to a social construction.

01:28:05.000 Now, of course, truly radical social constructivists argue that everything short of your genitalia is ultimately due to some cascade of socialization.

01:28:16.000 And of course, The average three-year-old would be able to falsify that premise.

01:28:20.000 But the reality is that within the social sciences… Just with push-ups.

01:28:24.000 Take a look.

01:28:25.000 But you know what the social construction argument would be for that?

01:28:28.000 From a very, very young age, little Johnny is condoned, is encouraged to play rough-and-tumble styles, and that sort of… Sure, sure, sure. 0.73

01:28:39.000 But that's silly.

01:28:39.000 That's silly, especially any biological science that you look at muscle trauma and you look at the way muscles are built.

01:28:45.000 I mean, it's just the testosterone. 0.87

01:28:47.000 You look at the hormonal profiles.

01:28:49.000 And I feel like sometimes we have a lot of intellectuals, obviously, who debate on campus. 0.95

01:28:49.000 It's silly. 0.95

01:28:54.000 And sometimes we get so far off the beam where if we're going to use that premise and deconstruct it, listen. 0.96

01:28:58.000 It's silly.

01:28:58.000 There's a reason the military requirements right now, they've been lowered for women.

01:29:02.000 It's not because of a social construct.

01:29:02.000 They can't do it.

01:29:04.000 They've been stripped down to a number.

01:29:05.000 We know it's true.

01:29:06.000 And sometimes we get so far off into the weeds.

01:29:08.000 So I do have a question though for you on the feminism front. 1.00

01:29:11.000 Obviously you've spoken out against feminism. 0.94

01:29:13.000 How does someone like you, obviously, someone who's really studied the biology, how do you see a feminist who is often going against, I would assume that you argue, some of which is their nature, some is nurture, trying to act like men, outmanning the men, you know, like at the Feminist Film Festival where we go.

01:29:30.000 What kind of irreparable damage does that do there, and is it entirely a daddy issue?

01:29:37.000 Well, I mean, I would say, first of all, that we have to sort of decouple the different definitions of feminism. 1.00

01:29:42.000 I mean, feminism as the idea that we should be equal under the law, right? 0.99

01:29:47.000 Equity feminism, of course, it's easy for you and I to get behind. 1.00

01:29:50.000 The problem comes from sort of radical feminists, whereby they regrettably conflate the idea that everybody should be equal under the law. 1.00

01:30:00.000 therefore that must mean that we should be indistinguishable from one another, right?

01:30:03.000 To argue that we are indistinguishable from one another makes it easier to fight the so-called sexist status quo.

01:30:10.000 And I think that's where the problem comes in.

01:30:12.000 The reality is that biologists define homo sapiens as a sexually dimorphic species.

01:30:18.000 In other words, the manner in which humans are defined recognizes that we are innately different in our dimorphism.

01:30:28.000 So it's exactly what you said.

01:30:30.000 It's silly, but of course it comes from an ideological position that's very, very difficult to fight against.

01:30:36.000 Yeah, it's one of those things that's difficult to disprove, right, because of the way they set it up.

01:30:41.000 And I have a writer from my website, Courtney, who's brilliant, and she wrote about this, and people got really mad, where she said, you know, and she's a very strong, independent woman.

01:30:50.000 She's off on her own.

01:30:51.000 She's been self-employed for a long time.

01:30:52.000 She's talked about how we're trying to empower women Through putting on the same playing field with men, action stars, trying to force them into sciences, in the military, in the front lines. 0.96

01:31:02.000 And she argues that you're given a lot of young women complexes with that from a psychological perspective.

01:31:07.000 I wonder if you could confirm that.

01:31:09.000 Well, I mean, listen, I don't know if you know who Lawrence Summers is.

01:31:13.000 Does that name ring a bell?

01:31:15.000 The name does ring a bell, yeah.

01:31:16.000 But we do have to go to a break soon.

01:31:17.000 We'll go to a web extended.

01:31:18.000 So, can you wrap this in like 20 seconds and then we'll come back?

01:31:21.000 He was the Harvard president and he basically gave a speech where he talked about the idea that some women might not be into science.

01:31:29.000 He got kicked out of Harvard.

01:31:31.000 That's right.

01:31:32.000 I think we did right about that.

01:31:33.000 And... 1.00

01:31:35.000 Poor bastard. 0.99

01:31:36.000 Okay, for people listening terrestrially, youtube.com slash gadsadsad, S-A-A-D, and there is an exclusive web extended coming up. 0.98

01:31:44.000 Stay tuned.

01:31:44.000 lottowithcrowder.com.

01:31:45.000 And now for episode 464 of the Game of Thrones fandom podcast. 0.94

01:32:14.000 So, Eugene, did you see Game of Thrones this week where they had all the boobs and the butts in it?

01:32:19.000 Yeah, and I also watched Star Wars. 0.91

01:32:22.000 We're talking about Game of Thrones, Eugene! 0.98

01:32:24.000 There's no boobs to bust in Star Wars, you hack!

01:32:27.000 We'll be back next time with episode 542 of the Game of Thrones fandom podcast. 0.77

01:32:33.000 You've found yourself at the junction where worlds meet.

01:32:47.000 Politics.

01:32:48.000 Civility.

01:32:49.000 How about honesty in this country, folks?

01:32:51.000 Entertainment.

01:32:52.000 I don't like entertainment.

01:32:54.000 And a whole bunch of other stuff.

01:32:57.000 It's about having a healthy body image.

01:32:59.000 You have a very unhealthy body.

01:33:00.000 You should have a horrible body image. 0.99

01:33:02.000 Not a big home improvement market.

01:33:04.000 We are definitely going to get letters.

01:33:07.000 You're listening to Talk Radio's Strangest Animal. 0.97

01:33:11.000 You're a strange animal.

01:33:14.000 You're getting louder with Crowder. 0.99

01:33:17.000 But you're a strange animal. 0.73

01:33:20.000 I got to follow. 0.90

01:33:21.000 Oh, I'm in the speedy to sound.

01:33:27.000 Glad to be back.

01:33:28.000 Third hour coming up at the bottom.

01:33:30.000 Well, actually, no.

01:33:31.000 Next segment will be Papa Crowder.

01:33:35.000 Good old Papa Crowder.

01:33:37.000 He actually wants you to let him know, to give him five minutes notice.

01:33:41.000 I will do that.

01:33:41.000 Sure will.

01:33:42.000 He is excited to do it.

01:33:43.000 I just figured I'd bring him on.

01:33:44.000 You know, I really do think that we've been pretty fair with the candidates.

01:33:48.000 They've all been invited in the program.

01:33:50.000 Some have come on the program.

01:33:50.000 Some have not.

01:33:51.000 And yeah, listen, who cares if I don't like Donald Trump?

01:33:54.000 You can...

01:33:56.000 Whatever.

01:33:56.000 I just think that people need to substantiate their arguments.

01:33:59.000 My father is not as forgiving.

01:34:03.000 My father is not as forgiving as I am.

01:34:05.000 He is not as forgiving as I. So, I figure you should hear it from him.

01:34:10.000 He's a pretty smart guy, and he is not a fan.

01:34:13.000 We were going to bring my mom on, but she just said, I can't do it.

01:34:16.000 I get too mad with that.

01:34:18.000 That guy, he's making me sick.

01:34:19.000 She's the biggest Republican conservative there is. 0.98

01:34:23.000 She would have voted for anyone.

01:34:27.000 Actually, she liked Rubio.

01:34:28.000 She liked Fiorina.

01:34:29.000 She liked Cruz.

01:34:30.000 She even liked Ran.

01:34:32.000 She liked Huckabee.

01:34:33.000 She liked all of them.

01:34:34.000 I can't think of anyone she didn't like.

01:34:37.000 I'm trying to think.

01:34:38.000 She even liked Dick Cheney.

01:34:40.000 Leslie Graham?

01:34:41.000 Lindsey Graham.

01:34:42.000 Leslie?

01:34:43.000 It's also a guy's name that is...

01:34:46.000 We were talking about the guy in Austin who used to walk around in cheeky shorts.

01:34:49.000 Okay.

01:34:49.000 So, before we bring my dad on, I want to address two issues here.

01:34:52.000 We covered this on the website, and we have the video ready.

01:34:56.000 You know, people got mad when I talked about democratic socialism and communism and socialism, and I do argue...

01:35:02.000 And I've put it forward in long form and short form, but I think it's an entirely valid comparison.

01:35:08.000 Communism, socialism, democratic socialism.

01:35:10.000 And people say, ah, you're just trying to scare people.

01:35:12.000 So here is Bernie Sanders in an interview from 1985, back before he knew that the cameras were rolling for his future presidential bid.

01:35:21.000 Now he stays pretty silent on his foreign policy.

01:35:23.000 It's not something he puts forward a whole lot.

01:35:25.000 Here is him talking about Nicaragua's communist Bread lines, straight from the horse's mouth.

01:35:33.000 You were joking, but no, Bernie really said this about communism in Nicaragua.

01:35:33.000 Go ahead.

01:35:38.000 You know, it's funny, sometimes American journalists talk about how bad a country is because people are lining up for food.

01:35:44.000 That's a good thing.

01:35:45.000 In other countries, people don't line up for food.

01:35:48.000 The rich get the food and the poor starve to death.

01:35:51.000 So it's good that there are lines...

01:35:53.000 Precursor. 0.99

01:35:55.000 Everything that guy just says, bull****. 0.98

01:35:57.000 Okay, but let me explain it to you. 0.98

01:36:01.000 This is Bernie Sanders, by the way, talking about communist food lines.

01:36:03.000 Now, statistically it's incorrect that in communist countries everybody eats, and in rich countries poor people die, only the rich eat.

01:36:13.000 People who are listening to this, not every person who listens to Ladder with Crowder is Daddy Warbucks or Mr.

01:36:18.000 Peanut, Mr.

01:36:19.000 Planters, though I like to picture them as such.

01:36:21.000 It makes my job less nerve-wracking.

01:36:23.000 So much better.

01:36:24.000 No, not at all.

01:36:26.000 This is Bernie Sanders himself praising communist food line.

01:36:30.000 And if you're too lazy to actually follow the story, people think I'm doing an impression or they might think it's fake.

01:36:35.000 Listen, and Nat K. Jared made this point.

01:36:35.000 No, this is real.

01:36:37.000 Democratic socialism is just communism with a checkbox.

01:36:41.000 Just because you add democratic in front of something, it doesn't change the root ideology, right?

01:36:44.000 Bernie Sanders thinks that communist bread lines are...

01:36:47.000 He just said, that's a good thing.

01:36:49.000 But somehow he's duped people into believing...

01:36:52.000 What he wants to do is different because he wants people to vote that we have breadlines.

01:36:58.000 So if you get to have a vote that we can have breadlines, then it's okay because there was a vote on it.

01:37:03.000 You can vote for slavery. 0.96

01:37:05.000 Democratic slavery. 0.76

01:37:07.000 Are we on board with that?

01:37:09.000 You can vote...

01:37:10.000 Gosh, I'm trying to think.

01:37:11.000 Okay, well, obviously they don't support you can vote against same-sex marriage.

01:37:15.000 It's democratic.

01:37:17.000 Putting democratic doesn't make something any more moral.

01:37:21.000 Also, this idea that the majority supports X, therefore it's moral, it's the right thing to do X, that's not true at all.

01:37:30.000 The majority of people often make bad decisions.

01:37:34.000 Just look through history for two seconds and you realize the majority were on board with the wrong thing.

01:37:39.000 Lots of times.

01:37:40.000 Lots of times.

01:37:42.000 And a majority of communist or authoritative regimes at some point were voted in and then they shut the door behind them.

01:37:47.000 Not anymore.

01:37:49.000 Once you give them that power.

01:37:50.000 Before they were really against Nazism, they were highly for Nazism. 0.77

01:37:54.000 I mean, you can draw the parallels wherever you want, but at some point people had to be on board with it.

01:37:59.000 That's how you rose to power.

01:38:00.000 You didn't just walk in and say, let's run with this.

01:38:03.000 No, of course not.

01:38:04.000 And I'm not saying everyone who supports Bernie Sanders is a Nazi, but he is openly supporting, praising breadlines here. 0.85

01:38:09.000 This guy is.

01:38:10.000 And it's democratic.

01:38:11.000 So here's something.

01:38:11.000 This is what he supports because he believes for some reason that in the United States more people are dying of starvation than, I guess, Cuba, Nicaragua, or in Stalinist Russia.

01:38:21.000 I don't know.

01:38:22.000 And this is what this guy's been saying forever.

01:38:22.000 I don't know.

01:38:24.000 We're talking about a guy who never held a private job until 40-something, lived on people's apartments.

01:38:28.000 This is the guy who, if you were on college campus, you're like, ah, okay, it's Bernie.

01:38:32.000 Does he smell like weed? 0.55

01:38:33.000 He smells like weed.

01:38:34.000 There he is.

01:38:35.000 He's passing you the socialist pamphlets with his friend with the dreadlocks.

01:38:39.000 Good Lord.

01:38:40.000 That was Bernie Sanders.

01:38:41.000 That was the guy in college none of you liked.

01:38:43.000 Okay?

01:38:44.000 He may act nice now and say it's democratic, It's immoral.

01:38:49.000 He's gotten a haircut.

01:38:50.000 Gotta give him that.

01:38:51.000 Well, it's not an optional.

01:38:54.000 God gave him a haircut.

01:38:55.000 God cut his hair down.

01:38:58.000 Which brings us to another point.

01:38:59.000 Mississippi has enacted some new welfare laws, and we wrote about this.

01:39:02.000 So it ties right into the bread lines.

01:39:04.000 Again, going back to human nature.

01:39:05.000 In Mississippi, people are required to work for some of their welfare benefits.

01:39:09.000 Not Gay Jarrett. 0.94

01:39:10.000 Roll that clip. 0.96

01:39:12.000 With recent changes to SNAP programs, some of those receiving benefits are working to make sure they don't lose them.

01:39:18.000 I'm working here as part of the SNAP program for doing 40 hours a month in exchange for keeping my food stamps.

01:39:25.000 Today is Percy Fayard's first day volunteering at Feed My Sheep in Gulfport.

01:39:29.000 I'm in a current state of job search and I'm trying to make sure that I can still at least afford to live.

01:39:35.000 Percy says even though the work is hard, he doesn't mind putting in long hours in order to keep his benefits.

01:39:42.000 Well, okay, a couple of things you note there.

01:39:44.000 The big argument against welfare expansion and the benefits from Hillary and Bernie right now is that Republicans want to hurt minorities the most.

01:39:51.000 If you just listened to that clip, you might have been able to hear from The Voice.

01:39:54.000 If you watched it, that gentleman...

01:39:57.000 Caucasian, gentlemen.

01:39:59.000 I'm trying to use the correct terms here.

01:40:00.000 Caucasian, white, borderline translucent.

01:40:03.000 So, we talk about racism and how if you want to shut down welfare at all, it's racist.

01:40:09.000 That's the leftist argument because they expect very little of their voter constituency.

01:40:13.000 A couple of things here that are important fly directly in the face of Bernie Sanders and bread lines.

01:40:17.000 You hear what this guy said, okay?

01:40:20.000 Never underestimate the power of self-preservation.

01:40:23.000 If someone needs to work in order to eat, they will work.

01:40:28.000 That sounds cruel.

01:40:29.000 It's not.

01:40:30.000 If someone needs to be productive in order to be a part of a society, they will do so.

01:40:38.000 It's an amazing motivational tool.

01:40:40.000 Whether you want to acknowledge it or not, again, it goes to human nature.

01:40:43.000 You may want to believe that eventually everyone gets the same, no one is rewarded for success, and they'll work in a utopian society because you tell them to, and they enjoy the work that you're forcing them to do.

01:40:52.000 That's not how it's worked out.

01:40:54.000 That's why socialism, that's why communism, that's why big government, when it takes over forms of commerce, has never worked long-term where it's been tried.

01:41:02.000 It's a matter of time before they move toward a more free enterprise system.

01:41:06.000 Another thing that people don't want to talk about, and this is why the left has destroyed entire sectors of the community. 0.77

01:41:11.000 You know, they talk about welfare.

01:41:13.000 They promise voters free stuff, right?

01:41:15.000 It's the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.

01:41:18.000 If you look at these results in Mississippi, people like it.

01:41:21.000 People like working for welfare.

01:41:22.000 People were designed to be purposeful.

01:41:24.000 They're more fulfilled when they're living that way.

01:41:24.000 They're happier.

01:41:27.000 Would not working be easier?

01:41:29.000 Yes.

01:41:30.000 And so many people will do that, just like many people would cheat on tests in high school, if you could.

01:41:36.000 Find an Asian kid. 0.84

01:41:39.000 Pay him for homework.

01:41:40.000 Commerce, okay?

01:41:42.000 Some people in the studio may or may not have taken part.

01:41:46.000 But you didn't feel good about it.

01:41:48.000 Didn't make you a better person.

01:41:49.000 Didn't cause you to grow.

01:41:52.000 Time and time again, we see that giving people stuff doesn't make them happier.

01:41:56.000 It certainly doesn't strengthen an economy.

01:41:58.000 It certainly doesn't strengthen a culture, despite what Bernie Sanders says.

01:42:02.000 And it doesn't make someone happier.

01:42:04.000 And it's demeaning.

01:42:05.000 It's demeaning.

01:42:06.000 It's more demeaning to tell someone, I'm going to give it to you because I know you can't take care of yourself, than asking them to work for it.

01:42:11.000 This is a perfect example.

01:42:12.000 We talk about common ground.

01:42:14.000 A lot of people go, oh, the gridlock in Washington.

01:42:16.000 I hate how divisive it's been.

01:42:17.000 You know what?

01:42:18.000 I don't.

01:42:19.000 I really don't.

01:42:20.000 There's all this talk where people try and act as though it's somehow morally, it's altruistic.

01:42:25.000 If we could just come together, we all want the same things.

01:42:27.000 I don't want the same things.

01:42:28.000 I'm sorry, I don't.

01:42:29.000 People say that.

01:42:30.000 We need to work together because we want the same things for the country.

01:42:32.000 No? 0.99

01:42:33.000 You want to kill babies in bread lines, Bernie Sanders. 1.00

01:42:36.000 You believe that we should be able to kill babies up until the woman has contractions. 1.00

01:42:41.000 And bread lines. 0.67

01:42:42.000 I don't want the same things.

01:42:43.000 I don't need to hold hands and do the whole we are the world bullcrap.

01:42:47.000 I don't want the same things.

01:42:49.000 I'm okay with that dividing line.

01:42:50.000 I'm okay with being divisive if I'm dividing myself from the right person.

01:42:59.000 So in this case, if we want to talk about coming together, I can't think of another area where everyone should be coming together other than, right here, let's talk about welfare.

01:43:07.000 Okay, listen, we have welfare in this country.

01:43:09.000 We have benefits.

01:43:09.000 We want to help people while they're down.

01:43:10.000 Sure.

01:43:11.000 Here's what we want to do.

01:43:12.000 Drug tested for welfare, and you work.

01:43:18.000 Why is everybody not on board with that?

01:43:22.000 If someone tweet me at S. Crowder, I have never heard a single sound argument presented against that.

01:43:29.000 We've had leftists on the shows.

01:43:31.000 We've had Bernie supporters on the shows.

01:43:33.000 Hopefully we'll have more.

01:43:34.000 Can one person give me an argument as to why asking people who show up for welfare to work could be anything other than a good thing, as we see here in Mississippi with successful results?

01:43:49.000 Drug tested for welfare?

01:43:50.000 You show up to work.

01:43:51.000 Then you can place them in a job.

01:43:53.000 They gain experience.

01:43:54.000 They don't have to be in welfare forever.

01:43:56.000 I hate to attribute a motive, but I can't see any other path to it when Democrats say, when you say, well, okay, let's have welfare, but let's try and scale it back.

01:44:08.000 Let's have a work program.

01:44:09.000 No!

01:44:10.000 Let's make sure that people aren't just staying on welfare forever and abusing substances and they have no intention of working.

01:44:15.000 No!

01:44:17.000 Again, I'm okay with being politically divided on some issues.

01:44:20.000 But if we're going to talk about common ground, before we get to abortion, before we get to 90% tax on people making over $250,000 a year, how about, ah, you just work for your dollar?

01:44:30.000 Seems reasonable.

01:44:30.000 Pop a crowd after this.

01:44:32.000 We now return you to our pre-scheduled season premiere of Family Matters Millennial Edition.

01:44:55.000 Carl Winslow, back in the force.

01:44:58.000 Black lives matter!

01:45:00.000 Black lives matter! 0.99

01:45:02.000 Hey, should I burn down this flag? 1.00

01:45:04.000 Yeah, take a shit on it! 1.00

01:45:06.000 Oh, careful, it's Officer Winslow! 1.00

01:45:10.000 Three, two, one.

01:45:13.000 One, two, three.

01:45:16.000 What is bothering me?

01:45:20.000 Three, two, one.

01:45:26.000 One, two, three.

01:45:29.000 What the heck is bothering me?

01:45:32.000 Yeah, you're really making your voices heard.

01:45:33.000 That flag doesn't stand a chance.

01:45:36.000 Three, two, one.

01:45:40.000 One, two, three. 1.00

01:45:43.000 You race-baiting jackasses are bothering me! 1.00

01:45:47.000 Come on! 1.00

01:45:47.000 Oh, my God! 1.00

01:45:49.000 I'm so crazy!

01:45:49.000 It's me!

01:45:51.000 I don't know!

01:45:55.000 I'm sick!

01:45:56.000 Whoa, Jared, what are you doing? 1.00

01:46:05.000 Shoot a bad guy. 0.98

01:46:06.000 With what? 1.00

01:46:07.000 AR-15.

01:46:08.000 Where'd you get it?

01:46:09.000 AR-15.com.

01:46:10.000 Oh, there's another one!

01:46:11.000 Kaboom! 0.99

01:46:12.000 Yeah.

01:46:12.000 You got him!

01:46:13.000 Thank God for AR-15.com.

01:46:15.000 They have AR-15 and accessories for sale and the best advice there is on the web.

01:46:19.000 Oh no, there's another one!

01:46:20.000 Kaboom! 0.99

01:46:21.000 You got him!

01:46:22.000 Yeah.

01:46:23.000 With your what?

01:46:24.000 From where?

01:46:24.000 AR-15.

01:46:25.000 AR-15.com.

01:46:26.000 That's the best place to go, and that's the takeaway, because this commercial's about to stop!

01:46:33.000 Glad to be back.

01:46:55.000 It's fun.

01:46:56.000 It's a good time.

01:46:57.000 It's fun to be on the program.

01:46:59.000 Fun program.

01:47:00.000 It's the best program.

01:47:01.000 It's a fun time to have on the program.

01:47:02.000 It's a decent program.

01:47:03.000 And that's why we want to make it a slightly above average program.

01:47:06.000 We're right in the bell curve there.

01:47:09.000 Not a bad place to be these days.

01:47:10.000 It's not a bad place to be.

01:47:11.000 Now, a lot of people think that I have been unfair with Donald Trump, and I would disagree.

01:47:17.000 And a lot of people think that sometimes we get too heated.

01:47:21.000 So if you think I'm unfair, I wanted to bring on our next guest.

01:47:24.000 You know him.

01:47:25.000 You've heard him here before.

01:47:26.000 We know.

01:47:26.000 We know it.

01:47:27.000 Anytime you hear this song.

01:47:29.000 Look at the whole thing.

01:47:43.000 Because he sees some honeys tonight.

01:47:56.000 He could be having his baby.

01:47:58.000 Papa Crowder, thank you for being on the show, sir.

01:48:01.000 Hey guys, thanks for having me.

01:48:02.000 As you and Jared know, I do love to throw my hands in the air like a...

01:48:09.000 Like you don't care, perhaps?

01:48:11.000 He is a true player.

01:48:12.000 That's the way I roll.

01:48:12.000 True player.

01:48:13.000 My dad is a true player.

01:48:14.000 I don't think there's ever been a whiter introduction.

01:48:17.000 Somehow we made Notorious B.I.G. shamefully white. 0.83

01:48:21.000 I do have C-notes and layers and gas strapped to my waist, though, but that's, you know, I just do it in a white sort of way. 0.98

01:48:28.000 The nerve on him with the racist talk.

01:48:31.000 But he does have some street cred coming from Detroit.

01:48:33.000 We've talked about that before.

01:48:34.000 He's from the area that Eminem likes to claim he's from.

01:48:37.000 Our aunt, your sister, Aunt Shirley, worked at the restaurant where Eminem busboyed, right?

01:48:37.000 Dad, right?

01:48:44.000 That's right.

01:48:44.000 Long before he had to handle Eminem, though.

01:48:47.000 Right.

01:48:47.000 He was still Marshall Mathers at that point.

01:48:50.000 That's right.

01:48:51.000 Marshall Pickup!

01:48:54.000 He was the guy saying, wait till I'll be a big rapper.

01:48:57.000 People are like, yeah, right.

01:48:58.000 And he did prove them wrong.

01:49:01.000 Just grab that mop, kid.

01:49:03.000 Just grab that mop, kid. 1.00

01:49:04.000 Your bleached head looks stupid. 1.00

01:49:06.000 Put on something other than an undershirt every now and then. 1.00

01:49:09.000 Silly little boy. 0.96

01:49:10.000 Okay. 0.99

01:49:11.000 We've talked about this before, and Mom would get too heated. 0.57

01:49:14.000 On the Trump thing, you've been following the politics primaries ever since I've known you.

01:49:18.000 You've been pretty conservative.

01:49:22.000 We might go into a contested convention.

01:49:25.000 What do you make of this, Dad?

01:49:27.000 Where are you on the Trump situation?

01:49:29.000 Are you kind of?

01:49:30.000 Maybe?

01:49:31.000 Let the listeners know.

01:49:33.000 Well, I heard my intro there, so I think that cat's out of the bag.

01:49:38.000 You know, I've never been a fan, and we talk about this all the time.

01:49:42.000 It's really sad.

01:49:43.000 There will be a contested convention, I believe.

01:49:46.000 And I just think if you give this guy enough rope...

01:49:50.000 Or in his case, a live mic.

01:49:52.000 When he doesn't know he's on, he will find a way to crash and burn.

01:49:57.000 So I'm waiting for that.

01:49:58.000 It seems to be happening little by little, but I wonder if there's just some real vulgar rant that's coming that we're going to hear about, even as people go, okay, that was fun for a while.

01:50:11.000 His own people are going to tap out. 0.98

01:50:14.000 Yeah, that's right.

01:50:15.000 You heard us play this earlier in the show.

01:50:17.000 The Roger Stone guy said he was going to release the hotel room.

01:50:19.000 I know he doesn't work with the campaign anymore.

01:50:21.000 Release the hotel rooms of the delegates who don't pledge to him.

01:50:24.000 And we've talked about this.

01:50:25.000 You do not want to see a brokered convention.

01:50:27.000 If Trump wins the specific amount of delegates, he needs to be the nominee.

01:50:31.000 We agreed on that.

01:50:32.000 But there's a reason that rule exists.

01:50:35.000 So where are you if no one has enough delegates and it goes to a contested convention?

01:50:39.000 You think that's fair?

01:50:41.000 Yeah, then you've got to work the floor.

01:50:42.000 Let's see what you've got.

01:50:44.000 Now it matters.

01:50:45.000 People are going to vote when it really counts.

01:50:47.000 Let's see what we can do.

01:50:48.000 I think Cruz has a pretty good ground game.

01:50:51.000 He's working the delegates hard.

01:50:53.000 He's winning the delegates fairly consistently, but I never want to see the will of the people usurp.

01:50:58.000 We can't do that.

01:50:59.000 You can't have the party elites decide against the will of the folks when people have already said, hey, You ran this guy by us.

01:51:10.000 We didn't vote for him.

01:51:11.000 Next, we didn't vote for him.

01:51:12.000 Next, and there were two left.

01:51:14.000 And then you try to voice that same person who maybe had already been through.

01:51:17.000 Or if they try to grab a Paul Ryan or something like that, it's wrong.

01:51:21.000 It can't happen.

01:51:22.000 So if they trot out Paul Ryan in his P90X shorts, you're not going to be a fan?

01:51:27.000 It's quite a look, but no, you wouldn't get my vote.

01:51:30.000 He's the guy who would have picked last for volleyball on your gym squad as an adult, but in a teenage body.

01:51:38.000 You say that.

01:51:38.000 I agree with that.

01:51:40.000 This is not new.

01:51:41.000 We've talked about this.

01:51:43.000 I think it was Texas.

01:51:44.000 Hillary won Texas, but Obama got more delegates. 1.00

01:51:46.000 With Mitt Romney, he won some states, and Ron Paul won more delegates.

01:51:52.000 This is nothing new.

01:51:54.000 Why do you think people all of a sudden act as though this is foul play, delegates shouldn't exist, it should only be the popular vote, and if they don't, you deserve to knock down their hotel room door at convention?

01:52:06.000 Yeah, no, I don't agree with that.

01:52:07.000 You and I talked about this earlier, that It's okay to let the states do their own quirky little, hey, this is the way we pick candidates.

01:52:13.000 As for us, this is how we're going to go.

01:52:15.000 You guys do what you want.

01:52:16.000 That's okay.

01:52:17.000 It's 50 sovereign states.

01:52:18.000 It's a neat place, this great experiment, and it works.

01:52:22.000 And it's a little bit funny.

01:52:23.000 I know some people do caucuses. 0.97

01:52:25.000 Others do outright primaries.

01:52:27.000 Others just do delegates in precincts.

01:52:29.000 But you can't go against that and say, okay, that's not working.

01:52:34.000 But there is a lot of rancor.

01:52:35.000 There's a lot of distrust.

01:52:37.000 So we're in an environment where people are looking for it.

01:52:40.000 And I think that's where we are.

01:52:41.000 Well, people are just angry.

01:52:43.000 And you've had friends, you know, people who know you're a Christian man, and you're talking about people at church who were kind of on the Trump train, and you had some conversations with them, and they hadn't even thought of these things.

01:52:53.000 No, they hadn't.

01:52:54.000 It's just like a lot of the folks that were Christians, we've talked about this before, that were voting for Obama.

01:53:00.000 And I said, well, as a follower of Martin Luther King, I could never vote for Obama.

01:53:04.000 And they would go, what? 0.98

01:53:06.000 They didn't have a chip in their brain to take that, especially if they were black folks. 0.97

01:53:11.000 And you could bring them around to the fact that this person doesn't share your values. 0.98

01:53:15.000 In fact, he mocks your values.

01:53:17.000 Same case with Trump.

01:53:18.000 He's not in your camp.

01:53:20.000 He mocks you.

01:53:21.000 He gets on Howard Stern, and you're the brunt of every joke.

01:53:24.000 But when he's in the national spotlight, yeah, I'm one of those.

01:53:27.000 I love the Bible.

01:53:28.000 Right.

01:53:29.000 He's consistent in his inconsistency, for sure.

01:53:33.000 But Ted Cruz, though, even though we know he's a Christian man, he's not out to ram that down anyone's throats.

01:53:40.000 He's a constitutionalist that's going to push it back to the states and limit the federal government in your lives.

01:53:45.000 So I don't have any problem with that.

01:53:46.000 No, well, Mark Reperto, who's an atheist, said the exact same thing.

01:53:49.000 Little known fact, Moe Sislak is in my father's church group.

01:53:52.000 What, what, what?

01:53:53.000 I was not aware of that.

01:53:55.000 But, all right, we're going to have to let you go, Papa Crowder. 0.78

01:53:59.000 Obviously, you're not on social media or any of that, and I know you're out to dinner with mom and friends.

01:54:04.000 So thanks for coming on, and we will check back in with you.

01:54:07.000 But hopefully next time you're as mad as you are when you call me with week updates.

01:54:12.000 Thanks for having me, guys.

01:54:13.000 All right, talk to you later.

01:54:13.000 Appreciate it.

01:54:14.000 That was Papa Crowder.

01:54:16.000 Pops Crowder, depending on what you want to call him.

01:54:19.000 Um, cis, white male, privileged, with opinions.

01:54:22.000 We'll be back later with Crowder.

01:54:23.000 Stay tuned.

01:54:26.000 It only takes a time Jeff Federline here to tell you about this unique opportunity.

01:54:40.000 With the current volatility in the markets, and depending on your timing, gold has been rendered useless.

01:54:46.000 Which is why I, Jeff Federline, am providing you with this unique opportunity to invest in a 100% secure opportunity with silver.

01:54:55.000 Which can be done at goldwire.com slash silver.

01:54:58.000 Gold is yesterday's news, and if you bought up the wrong time, you could be out in the cold.

01:55:03.000 The good news is, silver will never do that to you.

01:55:06.000 The perfect hedge against the inflating prices of gold.

01:55:09.000 Silver is what you need currently in your portfolio.

01:55:13.000 Sell everything else off and buy nothing but silver.

01:55:16.000 As much as you can fit in your basement, your gun safe, or even out in the open.

01:55:21.000 You would be amazed at the versatility of silver.

01:55:24.000 Not only for purchasing and selling goods and services, also for jewelry, cutlery, silverware, and bullets for werewolves.

01:55:33.000 But buy it up now. 0.99

01:55:35.000 There's only so much silver to go around because of those damn Mayans and Aztecs. 1.00

01:55:40.000 There are a lot of hucksters out there, but you can trust me, Jeff Federline of goldwire.com slash silver, and I can say with 100% certainty and no worry of legal liability whatsoever that when the s*** goes down, you will be glad you have purchased and only purchased my silver. 0.97

01:56:08.000 And now for episode 645 of the Game of Thrones fandom podcast.

01:56:14.000 Okay, it's important that you stay on topic.

01:56:17.000 Did you see the episode last week of Game of Thrones?

01:56:20.000 Yeah!

01:56:21.000 And what did you find most fascinating about that one?

01:56:25.000 I thought that Jon Snow was doing a lot with the... 0.99

01:56:29.000 God, Eugenio, I just didn't say to talk about boobs and butts! 0.90

01:56:32.000 I just thought some of the narratives that tied together were interesting. 1.00

01:56:36.000 Damn it, Eugenio cares about that crap! 1.00

01:56:39.000 People should get a podcast to hear about the boobs and butts on the show! 1.00

01:56:43.000 Stay tuned for episode 694 of the Game of Thrones Stand-Up Podcast, where Yu-Gi will be replaced with an adult film actress.

01:56:53.000 Glad to be back, everyone.

01:57:20.000 Anyone who watches the live stream, you know, we do the dancing and sometimes people are saying, well, you're off beat.

01:57:25.000 There's always a little bit of a delay.

01:57:26.000 A little bit of a delay in your brain from the rhythm of the song.

01:57:32.000 I walked right into that one.

01:57:33.000 I walked right into it.

01:57:35.000 Okay, speaking of walking face first into something, it's time to walk face first into racism.

01:57:40.000 Let me set this story up for you.

01:57:42.000 Yusra...

01:57:43.000 I want to get the last name right because I don't want to be racist.

01:57:46.000 Yusra Kogali, who's one of the Black Lives Matter founders from Toronto... 0.98

01:57:53.000 Tweeted out that she wanted the strength from Allah, please give me strength to not cuss, kill these white men and white folks out here today. 0.96

01:58:01.000 Please, please, please. 0.97

01:58:02.000 Now, I know to some of you that may sound racist.

01:58:07.000 It may sound borderline inappropriate.

01:58:11.000 However, she presented this sound argument in her defense.

01:58:16.000 Jared, let's roll the clip.

01:58:18.000 This is extremely frustrating and emotional for me because we slept outside for two weeks to get somebody to care about death in our community.

01:58:26.000 And this is what you've decided to focus on.

01:58:30.000 It is very, very irresponsible.

01:58:34.000 It's very irresponsible.

01:58:36.000 Has there been a story yet on Pierre Boni?

01:58:39.000 Has there been stories on Black Lives Matter?

01:58:41.000 It's very irresponsible. 1.00

01:58:43.000 If I tweet out that I want to kill white people, And you say, hey, why do you want to kill white people? 1.00

01:58:50.000 You're an irresponsible jackass. 1.00

01:58:52.000 These are the new rules. 1.00

01:58:54.000 So I want to sort of clarify.

01:58:56.000 I know I'm not allowed to with my white privilege.

01:59:00.000 A lot of people don't know what racism is.

01:59:04.000 So Yusra, let me give you a few pointers.

01:59:06.000 And I'm sorry you had a bad week.

01:59:08.000 But a lot of people have bad weeks.

01:59:11.000 They don't find themselves overreacting by tweeting out allusions to mass genocide.

01:59:14.000 It's not considered a healthy reaction.

01:59:17.000 But I'm not a professional.

01:59:22.000 See, contrary to the Black Lives Matter movement, there's constant false claims of racism.

01:59:27.000 What's being exhibited here is actual racism.

01:59:31.000 Let me explain to you.

01:59:32.000 Let me provide some examples.

01:59:34.000 A white guy refusing to check his privilege.

01:59:37.000 That's not actually racism.

01:59:40.000 Let me define it first.

01:59:41.000 Racism is a belief that people are inferior, subservient, solely due to the color of their skin.

01:59:49.000 Telling a white guy to check his privilege, if he doesn't, that's not necessarily racism.

01:59:53.000 Jared, do we agree?

01:59:54.000 I agree fully.

01:59:55.000 You're looking like you're not even in the room.

01:59:56.000 I was tweeting.

01:59:57.000 Oh, you were tweeting.

01:59:58.000 Handling Twitters.

01:59:59.000 A white guy wearing dreadlocks, that's not racism.

02:00:05.000 You may say cultural appropriation, but that is not racism.

02:00:09.000 A person simply believing in a free enterprise system and that he shouldn't support a giant welfare state, that's not racism.

02:00:19.000 Wanting to kill people solely because of the color of their skin?

02:00:23.000 It's racism! 0.99

02:00:25.000 I'm trying...

02:00:26.000 I'm just trying to...

02:00:27.000 Yeah.

02:00:28.000 There you go.

02:00:29.000 And I know it's...

02:00:29.000 I hope I've crystallized the basic concept for you.

02:00:33.000 I hope I've made it clear.

02:00:34.000 If you have any questions, you can tweet me at S. Crowder.

02:00:37.000 But I love this about the Black Lives Matter movement.

02:00:39.000 They want segregated safe spaces.

02:00:41.000 They want affirmative action. 0.64

02:00:44.000 They tell people to check their privilege.

02:00:46.000 They are impoverished.

02:00:47.000 They are being gunned down by cops in the streets because that's what cops do.

02:00:50.000 One does.

02:00:51.000 That's what happens. 1.00

02:00:53.000 But if they tweet out that they feel they want to kill all white folks... 0.99

02:01:00.000 By the way, she didn't just tweet out. 1.00

02:01:02.000 She was publicly praying, of course, to her pagan moon god whose prophet raped a six-year-old girl. 0.87

02:01:08.000 So there's a problem there to begin with. 0.94

02:01:10.000 Mohammed Islam.

02:01:11.000 I know you're not supposed to say it. 0.99

02:01:14.000 Technically, he raped her when she was nine. 0.95

02:01:15.000 Okay? 0.97

02:01:16.000 I'll grant you that.

02:01:18.000 Maybe that's the problem with the jumping-off point.

02:01:21.000 If you're Islamic and Muhammad is kind of your standby example, maybe committing mass genocide against the whites, you're like, well, you wanted to do it with the Jews. 0.99

02:01:31.000 Let's just swap a little wordplay.

02:01:33.000 A little wordplay there.

02:01:34.000 Something else I find really funny, this is this girl from Toronto.

02:01:38.000 I was raised in Montreal.

02:01:40.000 This is not a place that has the same kind of history or problems that the United States would have, where you would talk about the police force.

02:01:49.000 It's not at all.

02:01:50.000 And it also, of course, doesn't have the same kind of a color palette.

02:01:52.000 They don't have the amount of black people in Toronto as you do in the United States.

02:01:56.000 Very few places do have the diversity that you have in the United States, despite the fact that we're accused of being racist by these overwhelmingly white European nations.

02:02:06.000 By design.

02:02:06.000 The ones that claim they're not socialist.

02:02:08.000 Right.

02:02:09.000 The ones that claim they're not socialist when Bernie Sanders says it works here.

02:02:09.000 Those ones.

02:02:12.000 And then the Danish Prime Minister says, no, no, no, no, no, we're not socialist.

02:02:16.000 So this is a perfect example.

02:02:17.000 When I was raised in Montreal, we always laughed about this.

02:02:21.000 For example, Ebonics, the twang that you hear from urban cities in the United States from black people. 1.00

02:02:27.000 You can trace that history.

02:02:29.000 Right.

02:02:29.000 As a matter of fact, white Southerners use a lot of the same lingo, use a lot of the same slang.

02:02:34.000 If you actually listen to white people from the South, they speak much more similarly to actually even black people from Detroit than white people from Detroit.

02:02:42.000 A lot of the same expressions.

02:02:43.000 And of course, you can trace that back to slavery.

02:02:46.000 You can trace that back to origins of black people in the South.

02:02:49.000 Not saying that's a good thing.

02:02:50.000 I'm simply talking about a dialect.

02:02:52.000 You can trace that.

02:02:53.000 So it is a uniquely American thing.

02:02:55.000 What I find funny...

02:02:58.000 We would have kids in Montreal who they would sound like AdSaid. 0.98

02:03:01.000 They would sound like those people.

02:03:02.000 Or they would be French-Canadian.

02:03:04.000 And then they were trying to yo-talk like they were from Detroit.

02:03:07.000 And then you end up with Drake, the rapper.

02:03:10.000 Who claimed he's from Memphis.

02:03:11.000 You were the butter-soft paraplegic in Degrassi who couldn't outrun the school shooting.

02:03:16.000 Right? 0.75

02:03:17.000 You're a Jewish kid from Toronto.

02:03:18.000 And then they fake the American... 0.58

02:03:20.000 It has to be fake! 0.93

02:03:22.000 Anyone from Canada who tries to act as though they've lived the American black experience is lying.

02:03:29.000 Or they've created it for themselves, as this woman has. 0.90

02:03:33.000 Now, places like New York, places like Detroit, I'm not going to deny reality.

02:03:39.000 Yeah, there's racism.

02:03:40.000 It's palpable in Detroit.

02:03:41.000 Absolutely.

02:03:42.000 It's very sacred.

02:03:42.000 In places like New York, people stay in there.

02:03:45.000 You may have a lot of people from different walks of life, different races, different ethnicities.

02:03:50.000 It is very divided in New York.

02:03:52.000 I've lived there for years.

02:03:53.000 I'm not going to deny that tension there, of course.

02:03:56.000 But that is not the case in Montreal.

02:03:59.000 A cop isn't even looking...

02:04:00.000 Again, the reason that's the case in the United States, a lot of it is statistical. 0.98

02:04:03.000 If you're a cop and you're gambling with your life every day in a very dangerous area, like right now, record shootings in Chicago, vast majority of them are committed by black gang members. 0.98

02:04:12.000 Doesn't mean that all black people are gang members. 0.98

02:04:13.000 That's not what I'm saying. 0.64

02:04:14.000 But if you're a cop...

02:04:17.000 And you're gambling with your life, and you have to make split-second bets.

02:04:20.000 Yeah, I think for some cops, that enters into the equation. 0.93

02:04:22.000 I don't think they premeditatedly go out and say, I'm going to knock off a black guy today.

02:04:27.000 I think things escalate, and this happens more. 0.90

02:04:29.000 Okay?

02:04:30.000 But you don't even have that statistical reality in Toronto.

02:04:34.000 I guarantee you, cops are not going, oh, oh, oh, oh, there's a French-Haitian there. 0.58

02:04:39.000 Oh, this is a problem.

02:04:41.000 You know what?

02:04:43.000 Just to be on the safe side, let's go full Tamir Rice.

02:04:44.000 That's not what they do.

02:04:46.000 There isn't even this history in Canada.

02:04:48.000 So here you have a woman who has created fake racism. 1.00

02:04:52.000 There is racism in Canada.

02:04:53.000 There is discrimination.

02:04:54.000 It's not necessarily racism.

02:04:55.000 The prejudice in Canada is between the English and the French.

02:04:58.000 And it's far, far worse and far more blatant than black and white in the United States.

02:05:02.000 I mean, if you just replaced...

02:05:04.000 French and English, the stuff that they say about each other publicly in French Canada, you just replace that with black and white.

02:05:10.000 It would be, you know, David Duke type stuff.

02:05:13.000 It's just okay because it's a language thing.

02:05:15.000 That's their form of prejudice where I was in Quebec.

02:05:17.000 Not entirely sure about Toronto, but it's not a bastion of racism.

02:05:21.000 So this girl comes from a place where that's not even a part of the history.

02:05:25.000 Creates the Black Lives Matter movement, co-founds it in Toronto, disrupts, goes out.

02:05:31.000 These people, they cause crimes.

02:05:33.000 It's been overwhelmingly problematic, to use their word.

02:05:36.000 And people don't like them.

02:05:38.000 Nobody likes you, booster.

02:05:39.000 Nobody wants Black Lives Matter in their town. 1.00

02:05:41.000 They're going, oh, crap! 0.99

02:05:44.000 They showed up here and it was going so well. 0.99

02:05:47.000 What, Heavenly Father, have we done to deserve this?

02:05:51.000 And it's not black people. 0.99

02:05:53.000 Anything but this. 1.00

02:05:54.000 Send the Nazis. 0.82

02:05:56.000 I'll take the bread lines. 1.00

02:05:58.000 It's not black people. 1.00

02:06:00.000 It's you.

02:06:01.000 It's Black Lives Matter.

02:06:04.000 You know what?

02:06:04.000 It's a giant movement that consists of people who almost act entirely in unison like that shrill broad at the Starbucks yelling at Rick Scott.

02:06:14.000 Her times a bunch of people giving money to Sean King.

02:06:17.000 That's Black Lives Matter.

02:06:19.000 It's the OJ jurors with a lot more enthusiasm and motivation.

02:06:23.000 Right.

02:06:24.000 And more racism.

02:06:25.000 And more racism.

02:06:26.000 So this girl creates a movement that's based on a falsehood. 0.99

02:06:29.000 There isn't this racial tension.

02:06:31.000 There isn't this racial history in Toronto.

02:06:32.000 Uses it to create Black Lives Matter. 0.78

02:06:34.000 Try and play the professional victim card. 1.00

02:06:37.000 Then tweets out about how she's praying for help with her desire to murder all white people. 0.99

02:06:45.000 Someone calls her on it and she has the nerve to tell them that they're being irresponsible. 0.99

02:06:50.000 Why?

02:06:51.000 Because she lost sleep.

02:06:54.000 Because she's upset about something.

02:06:58.000 This is the logic of the left.

02:07:01.000 And this woman, her head hits the pillow at night. 1.00

02:07:05.000 Usra.

02:07:05.000 What's her?

02:07:06.000 Usra.

02:07:08.000 By the way, I'm not sure if that's her given name.

02:07:10.000 I don't know if that's like Cat Stevens' situation, Yusuf Islam. 1.00

02:07:13.000 Well, when you join the Black Lives Matter, you're assigned a name.

02:07:17.000 It's just your new...

02:07:18.000 Yeah.

02:07:20.000 We're joking.

02:07:21.000 That's probably true.

02:07:22.000 I wouldn't be surprised.

02:07:24.000 They probably, like, they pitch it to people, take it or leave it, we would propose this name.

02:07:27.000 We would propose.

02:07:28.000 It's simply a suggestion.

02:07:31.000 He can be taught!

02:07:31.000 That's right!

02:07:33.000 Also, we would advise that you want to kill white people. 1.00

02:07:37.000 Don't do it. 1.00

02:07:38.000 Talk about it.

02:07:39.000 This woman's head hits that pillow every night. 1.00

02:07:42.000 Tonight, it's going to hit that pillow.

02:07:44.000 And she's not, again, she's not going to look at herself in the mirror and say, you know what? 0.97

02:07:49.000 If I need to pray to the Zoroastrian pagan moon god, who then they rebranded it as Islam with a serial rapist pedophile, Muhammad as their holiest prophet, terrorism be upon him. 0.98

02:08:00.000 You know, if I pray to that god for the strength to not kill all white people, is the problem me? 0.99

02:08:10.000 Is there a possibility that maybe there's something wrong with me? 0.97

02:08:13.000 What you don't realize is everyone is just racist.

02:08:16.000 I was proving that this week.

02:08:17.000 I have a friend who's taking this quiz for her psychology class for education.

02:08:26.000 And it proved your biases because you pressed the letters E and I fast enough on a keyboard.

02:08:33.000 It's like a ticket popped out.

02:08:34.000 Ding! 1.00

02:08:35.000 You're racist. 0.95

02:08:36.000 Right. 0.91

02:08:36.000 It was basically a microaggression test without saying microaggression. 0.91

02:08:39.000 They never said microaggression, but yeah, it was a microaggression test.

02:08:42.000 And it showed black faces and white faces.

02:08:45.000 It was supposed to identify them fast enough, and then they start mixing in weapons or just non-threatening objects.

02:08:53.000 And you have to start associating them.

02:08:55.000 Which one do you associate fastest?

02:08:56.000 Which way?

02:08:57.000 Either with the black and weapon or the white and not, you know.

02:09:01.000 So it keeps mixing it up.

02:09:02.000 But the jury's out.

02:09:04.000 The jury's in. 0.95

02:09:05.000 We're all racist.

02:09:06.000 But you said that you actually, when you tested, you attributed weapons more with white people. 0.97

02:09:11.000 With white people, which is, that's if, you know, I think I just suck at the game because that's probably what's going on. 0.99

02:09:16.000 It would correlate with the fact that you attributed to black people more so eroticism. 0.99

02:09:21.000 Well, this is true.

02:09:22.000 I didn't even know that was a category I was voting on with these buttons, but that's what came up.

02:09:26.000 It's not a category for everyone, just you.

02:09:28.000 Just me.

02:09:29.000 That is what happened.

02:09:30.000 Just me.

02:09:30.000 But this girl's not even having that conversation with herself.

02:09:32.000 Think about that. 1.00

02:09:33.000 At no point is she asking herself, am I the problem with wanting to kill white people? 0.99

02:09:37.000 Her head is going down to that pillow at night, and her last thoughts as she goes to sleep is... 1.00

02:09:42.000 Well, if she's not praying to the pagan moon god whose prophet was a serial rapist, pedophile, Mohammed, terrorism be upon him. 1.00

02:09:47.000 Her last thought as she goes to bed is... 1.00

02:09:50.000 Oh, I can't believe that reporter had the nerve to ask me about killing white people. 1.00

02:09:54.000 So irresponsible. 1.00

02:09:55.000 That's what she's thinking.

02:09:59.000 This is how far...

02:10:00.000 And the worst part is she's probably going to be backed up by professors. 0.57

02:10:03.000 She's probably going to be supported by other sympathetic figures in the media, feminist frequency. 1.00

02:10:08.000 She'll make the Daily Beast tour. 0.97

02:10:09.000 She'll make the Daily Beast tour. 0.97

02:10:11.000 She might become a dragon lady. 1.00

02:10:13.000 I don't know how far this goes.

02:10:15.000 I don't know where it ends.

02:10:18.000 But I just watched this and I'm sitting there going, we're so far off the beam, people... 0.84

02:10:22.000 Saying you want to kill people because of their race, that is picture-perfect racism.

02:10:27.000 If I were to use this in a video or on air, they would say, you're building a straw man. 0.99

02:10:33.000 No one ever said they wanted to kill white people. 0.97

02:10:35.000 She did! 0.97

02:10:36.000 And she's mad that you think it's inappropriate. 0.79

02:10:41.000 Check your privilege.

02:10:43.000 The real root of all racism is not racism. 1.00

02:10:48.000 It's your white penis. 1.00

02:10:50.000 We'll wrap this up after the break. 1.00

02:10:50.000 Lotter with Crowder. 1.00

02:10:52.000 And now time for GOP Party Jokes.

02:11:08.000 Hey.

02:11:09.000 Hey, Ted.

02:11:10.000 Ted, I got...

02:11:11.000 Okay.

02:11:12.000 Are you a fan of jokes?

02:11:12.000 Well...

02:11:13.000 I was actually known to be quite the cut-up at my Harvard debate club.

02:11:19.000 Yeah, okay, that's super cool.

02:11:20.000 Okay, I got one for you.

02:11:21.000 Why did the chicken cross the road?

02:11:23.000 Well, interesting thing about chickens, I come from a long line of farmers right here in the United States when my parents moved from Cuba.

02:11:33.000 And they, too, took care of some chickens.

02:11:37.000 Very difficult animals to manage, the chicken, but one can learn a lot when working with them.

02:11:44.000 Also, if you speak out against chickens, I've learned the hard way that you don't make a lot of friends.

02:11:50.000 Now, the defining factor in chickens, you see, is that unlike humans, chicken can lay eggs.

02:11:58.000 And that brings us to the quandary of what came first, the chicken or the egg.

02:12:05.000 And you know, I've had a long theory about that.

02:12:09.000 Can I help over here?

02:12:10.000 One that some people might agree with, some people might not.

02:12:13.000 That's their prerogative.

02:12:14.000 But one from which I've taken an invaluable life lesson.

02:12:18.000 That when dealing with eggs, like the human spirit, they can be incredibly fragile, and need to be nurtured, and taken care of, and sometimes given a warm blanket.

02:12:32.000 Now, if you let me come back to the point I believe that the reason this particular chicken crossed the road is not because this chicken was a bad chicken.

02:12:45.000 I don't even think it's because he didn't want to work.

02:12:49.000 I think this chicken, on his side of the road, saw a lack of opportunity. 0.99

02:12:54.000 Kill me! 0.96

02:12:57.000 This has been GOP Party Jokes. 0.99

02:14:20.000 Helps with the, you know.

02:14:22.000 They're a good sleuth.

02:14:23.000 Finding your conclusions.

02:14:24.000 I don't know.

02:14:24.000 They're doing work.

02:14:25.000 I want to bring up a couple of things because I wanted to ask, to answer some questions that people ask.

02:14:29.000 And I wanted to tie it into something that I think is important.

02:14:31.000 You know, we talked about this with Gadset.

02:14:32.000 He's a very smart guy.

02:14:34.000 But he did mention that he actually sees some more dogmatic, I guess sort of unilateral, close-minded, sometimes with intellectuals at academia than you see elsewhere.

02:14:43.000 And I'm glad that he actually admitted that, being an academic himself.

02:14:46.000 I get this a lot on YouTube.

02:14:48.000 So here I want to read a couple of comments.

02:14:50.000 We can bring this up on the screen.

02:14:51.000 This came to us on the YouTube from Ryan Costello.

02:14:55.000 Are you able to bring it up?

02:14:56.000 Not good, Jared?

02:14:57.000 I'm not seeing anything.

02:14:58.000 Ryan Costello says on the democratic socialism, Crowder, I don't generally agree with your worldview as it pertains to the role of government, but you do challenge my beliefs, which I appreciate.

02:14:58.000 Oh, there we go.

02:15:05.000 Thank you, Ryan.

02:15:06.000 I wanted to pose a question.

02:15:07.000 Does the decentralization of government authority always lead to a greater degree of prosperity for the greater number of people?

02:15:12.000 Or in your estimation, is it imaginable that deregulation will open the door for oligarchical powers to enact unethical practices on a populace in the pursuit of profit?

02:15:21.000 So isn't the theoretical discussion more about where the line should be drawn and not if one should be drawn at all?

02:15:26.000 Thank you for the question.

02:15:28.000 And I remember philosophy 101 as well.

02:15:32.000 Good for you.

02:15:35.000 I know you've used, you attempted to be verbose and wordy, and I appreciate it.

02:15:40.000 And I'm not saying that people shouldn't use more than a fourth grade vocabulary, okay?

02:15:44.000 I support candidates who do.

02:15:45.000 That's a good thing.

02:15:47.000 But you managed to, in your attempt, in your pursuit of intellectuality, you fell right in the target of pseudo-intellectuality.

02:15:55.000 And... 0.97

02:15:57.000 It's silly. 0.91

02:15:58.000 And this is something too, it's great to be able to seem articulate, but if you can't make a basic point and laser in on it, and if your argument is still really crappy, it doesn't matter how you try and present it. 0.91

02:16:11.000 Talking about oligarchical powers, deregulation, these are buzzwords, right?

02:16:15.000 Establishment, deregulation, oligarchy, pursuit of profit.

02:16:19.000 If you're going to be considered about oligarchy, Effectively meaning a ruling class, right?

02:16:24.000 I'm not going to be as concerned about the cafe owner down the street, which again, small businesses make up the vast majority of corporations when you're discussing evil corporate overlords, as I am career politicians who can achieve public office like Bernie Sanders and then go 35 years without having to provide goods or services or some kind of serviceable employment for someone else.

02:16:45.000 I am much more concerned for going to talk about oligarchical powers And deregulation with the people who manipulate the regulation and aren't beholden to any market forces whatsoever.

02:16:57.000 You want to talk about oligarchy?

02:16:59.000 How about somebody mandating that you purchase private insurance?

02:17:05.000 Would that count?

02:17:06.000 How about more executive orders than any president in the history of ever, Barack Obama?

02:17:10.000 I'm much more concerned about that kind of an oligarchy than Walmart getting me a $199 price discount on deodorant.

02:17:21.000 It's just this, you know, people in their attempt to sound very intelligent sometimes, and I'm sure this guy is smart, they want to show everyone their ability to be intellectual as opposed to actually critical, thinking critically.

02:17:33.000 I have another one here.

02:17:33.000 I don't know how much time we have before we have to leave.

02:17:36.000 We have three minutes.

02:17:37.000 All right, no, you know what, let me bring, let me close that because it's longer and even more wordy.

02:17:44.000 I'm not an anti-intellectualist, okay?

02:17:46.000 I'm not a populist.

02:17:48.000 And I like having discussions with intelligent people.

02:17:52.000 However, like Mark Ripito was talking about, why do we consider intellectual people only those who work in philosophy?

02:17:58.000 Why not people who have degrees in maybe engineering?

02:18:00.000 Why not people who are brilliant at being car mechanics?

02:18:04.000 People can be brilliant in many different facets of life.

02:18:09.000 And, intellectuals, people who are into philosophy, humanities, theory, that's great.

02:18:13.000 We need those folks, too.

02:18:15.000 But you can get so far off the beam that you're not even able to answer a basic question.

02:18:20.000 And sometimes you need a leader, and Bill Whittle has talked about this.

02:18:23.000 It's the difference between Captain Kirk and Mr.

02:18:25.000 Spock.

02:18:26.000 Alright, listen, we have to make a decision here.

02:18:29.000 Do we throw this strike?

02:18:30.000 We could take out one of the leaders here of ISIS, but there could be some civilian casualties.

02:18:35.000 Well, I think we need to analyze the situation and determine, really, what are the geopolitical ramifications regarding the oligarchical powers in the regions, of course.

02:18:43.000 Okay, we've got five seconds here.

02:18:45.000 Someone has to pull a trigger.

02:18:46.000 What do we need to do?

02:18:47.000 Well, it's interesting that you mention these seconds, because time actually is relative, if you look at the theory of relativity, and you understand if you're traveling, someone needs to make a decision.

02:18:56.000 You're all dead.

02:18:57.000 Boom. 1.00

02:18:58.000 You're a great consultant.

02:18:59.000 You're not a great leader.

02:19:02.000 You don't need to be the smartest guy in the room to be the best leader.

02:19:06.000 You need to be smart enough and you need to be able to make decisions.

02:19:12.000 Expression.

02:19:13.000 We've talked about this.

02:19:13.000 I don't know if we talked about this on this show.

02:19:14.000 I don't think so.

02:19:16.000 People use this term a lot.

02:19:18.000 Jack of all trades, master of none.

02:19:19.000 That's not the actual term.

02:19:20.000 The term was jack of all trades, master of one.

02:19:24.000 That's how someone becomes great.

02:19:27.000 And that one doesn't have to be a philosophy degree.

02:19:32.000 That one can be being a great general.

02:19:35.000 It can be being a great business owner.

02:19:37.000 You have to be smart enough.

02:19:39.000 You have to be competent enough.

02:19:40.000 You have to be physically fit enough.

02:19:42.000 All of those things account for a complete human being, a complete man.

02:19:46.000 And yes, I put physicality in there.

02:19:48.000 This is your vehicle.

02:19:50.000 Your brain is your vehicle.

02:19:51.000 You should take care of that too.

02:19:54.000 But it doesn't have to be You're one trade that you master.

02:20:00.000 And pseudo-intellectualism, and you see this in college a lot, you have people, they're so far down the trail, it's gender binary, they want to have these discussions, whereas it's a very basic answer, penis or not, right?

02:20:12.000 There are a few exceptions.

02:20:14.000 That they get so far down the trail, there's no trail of breadcrumbs to bring them back to a basic logic trail.

02:20:19.000 I'm not saying common sense is substantiation.

02:20:22.000 What I am saying is that just because someone wants to sound intellectual doesn't necessarily mean that they are.

02:20:27.000 And it's okay to question them?

02:20:29.000 And if they point to their degree, they're almost definitely a fraud.

02:20:33.000 Lotter with Crowder.

02:20:34.000 Stay tuned, we'll see you next week.
