Louder with Crowder - The Case for REOPENING America! | SCRAPYARD | Louder with Crowder

00:00:00.000 You're a strange animal, that's what I know You're a strange animal, I can't get far

00:00:25.000 I'm a strange animal That's called the... I really... I hit something here that

00:00:35.000 stopped like a skateboard with a rock Oh, I hated that.

00:00:39.000 That's not good.

00:00:39.000 But you never skateboarded.

00:00:41.000 I was a skater.

00:00:42.000 What are you talking about?

00:00:42.000 You know what his skateboarding was.

00:00:44.000 The kids were skateboarding and he was like, hey guys, that looks cool.

00:00:48.000 Can I take part?

00:00:50.000 I'm pretty confident.

00:00:51.000 Yeah, like Gerald went home and was like, Mom and Dad, I need one.

00:00:55.000 And then they got him one of the scooters, which is just a skateboard body, but with a handle on it.

00:00:59.000 And he showed up and he was like, I have one.

00:01:01.000 Wait, why do you feel like you need to describe to us what a scooter is?

00:01:05.000 I'm from China.

00:01:06.000 Shut up. 0.95

00:01:07.000 I feel like he forgets when he turns it on.

00:01:08.000 Like, oh, it's a scooter with a handle.

00:01:12.000 I don't know!

00:01:13.000 You know!

00:01:13.000 I have to remind myself I'm an American.

00:01:15.000 I was a skater for four years, by the way.

00:01:17.000 Four years.

00:01:18.000 Yeah, right.

00:01:18.000 I was!

00:01:19.000 Skater.

00:01:19.000 What?

00:01:19.000 Okay.

00:01:20.000 Name me a trick.

00:01:21.000 Ollie.

00:01:21.000 Kickflip.

00:01:22.000 Okay, he just named a basic- He named the fucking spice latte!

00:01:25.000 I did!

00:01:25.000 Come on, okay!

00:01:26.000 Fine!

00:01:26.000 Of tricks.

00:01:27.000 A big twist!

00:01:27.000 How about that?

00:01:28.000 No, good.

00:01:29.000 And then when they moved to the Razor Scooter- Nothing for the big twist?

00:01:31.000 Remember, like, that was just a less efficient scooter.

00:01:34.000 Yes.

00:01:34.000 It really was, yeah.

00:01:35.000 Let's take a scooter, which, you know, has sort of, like, smaller bike wheels, and give it the wheels of a roller blade.

00:01:41.000 Yeah.

00:01:42.000 Just so you feel every single bump.

00:01:44.000 Then you can do those flip things where they flip and hit you in the shin.

00:01:47.000 Yeah, I was pretty good at it, actually.

00:01:48.000 In Canada, let alone, they were very, very expensive.

00:01:50.000 We could not get Razor Scooters for the first, like, year.

00:01:53.000 That sucks.

00:01:53.000 So I went to Plattsburgh, and that's how you know your country is a horrible place to live, when you go to Plattsburgh, New York, to buy the cool sh**.

00:02:03.000 Wow.

00:02:04.000 Was it the, like, tariffs?

00:02:05.000 Was that it?

00:02:05.000 Were we in a, like, trade war with Canada?

00:02:07.000 No, it was just, they just didn't happen.

00:02:09.000 Like, Nintendo 64 games?

00:02:10.000 How much, uh, by the way, hold on a second, let me, okay, half-Asian lawyer Bill Richmond, quarter black Garrett, audio Wade, Gerald Morgan, uh, Gerald Morgan, eh, um, what were we saying?

00:02:19.000 The tariffs?

00:02:19.000 No, no, no.

00:02:20.000 How much was a Nintendo 64 game in the United States?

00:02:22.000 I believe they were, like, $35 to $40.

00:02:23.000 Okay, they were, like, $69.

00:02:23.000 What?

00:02:24.000 People out there from Canada, Tell the folks below.

00:02:29.000 Remember when Goldeneye came out, when it was new?

00:02:31.000 I remember I got it, I think for Christmas.

00:02:33.000 It was like, it was $69.95.

00:02:36.000 And I remember because one year I got Glover because they had this whole ad campaign for Glover.

00:02:41.000 It was horrible.

00:02:42.000 I got the same thing.

00:02:43.000 It was terrible.

00:02:44.000 It was a video game that was just awful.

00:02:49.000 That's a Gerald joke.

00:02:50.000 You should be ashamed.

00:02:50.000 You should put yourself in his corner.

00:02:52.000 Ah, yeah, baby.

00:02:54.000 Gerald's game is a bad one.

00:02:55.000 OK, no, seriously, what's Glover?

00:02:56.000 Mr. Gambino deserves better.

00:02:56.000 It was just a video game.

00:02:57.000 It was similar to, like, Mario 64, but you would have to collect the... It was a glove, and you would bounce a ball with the glove.

00:03:04.000 That's so terrible.

00:03:04.000 It was so bad.

00:03:05.000 Like a marble or a basketball.

00:03:07.000 But it was so expensive, and we had so little money when I was a kid that I knew, like, that's the video game I'm going to get for the year, and I want to kill myself with it.

00:03:15.000 And we didn't have Google, so I would have to ask Jeeves how to kill myself with an N64 game, and he was no help.

00:03:22.000 No.

00:03:22.000 It's a five-step process.

00:03:23.000 Who's got time for that?

00:03:25.000 I ended up switching to web crawler.

00:03:27.000 All right.

00:03:28.000 By the way, it is Mug Club quarantine.

00:03:30.000 Hashtag Mug Club quarantine is the month.

00:03:31.000 That's why we're giving you all this content in front of the paywall for free.

00:03:34.000 Enter the promo code quarantine.

00:03:36.000 You get $30 off.

00:03:37.000 That's our biggest discount since the Vox Apocalypse.

00:03:40.000 And if you are up for renewal, please do consider renewing.

00:03:43.000 We really do appreciate it.

00:03:45.000 Yeah, Canadians.

00:03:46.000 Set the Americans straight below and let them know. 0.65

00:03:48.000 We got it better than we know, right?

00:03:49.000 Yeah, and you know what else was crazy, too?

00:03:51.000 We used to go to the Plattsburgh, it was called Champlain Mall, but in Plattsburgh.

00:03:55.000 We never had samples when I grew up in Montreal.

00:03:57.000 Really?

00:03:58.000 So I remember I went through, the first time I ever experienced it, I go like, you want a teriyaki?

00:04:01.000 I'm like, yeah!

00:04:02.000 What?

00:04:03.000 Three?

00:04:04.000 We couldn't even return things.

00:04:06.000 Zeller's was our Walmart.

00:04:08.000 I got a pinball machine.

00:04:10.000 Sorry, I just didn't mean to start this way, but I'm very upset.

00:04:12.000 Take it away.

00:04:13.000 Zeller's was our Walmart equivalent.

00:04:14.000 It was called Zeller's.

00:04:16.000 Canadians, please, sound off so you remember this.

00:04:18.000 It had the Zeller's bear.

00:04:19.000 And I used to have nightmares about this bear.

00:04:21.000 It was very creepy looking.

00:04:22.000 It was like a Teddy Ruxpin on meth.

00:04:24.000 Oh nice, yeah.

00:04:25.000 And they had a return policy that wasn't, there was no return policy at all.

00:04:31.000 And so my parents got me one of those hand, like table ping pong, not ping pong, a pinball

00:04:36.000 machine.

00:04:37.000 And it didn't work.

00:04:38.000 They never do.

00:04:39.000 It didn't work at all.

00:04:40.000 And so we returned it, my parents had the receipt, they could clearly see it was broken,

00:04:45.000 and they charged us a 10% restocking fee.

00:04:48.000 Right there, my parents were like, we don't want it.

00:04:49.000 This is wrong.

00:04:50.000 All right.

00:04:50.000 It's Christmas.

00:04:51.000 Our kid wants his toy.

00:04:52.000 OK.

00:04:53.000 They exchange it.

00:04:54.000 My dad says, I'm going to check this right here in front of you.

00:04:57.000 With the new one, it, too, did not work.

00:04:59.000 20%.

00:05:00.000 No.

00:05:00.000 Because they charged us another restocking fee right there at Zeller's.

00:05:04.000 And so when Walmart came in and closed them down, I thank the Lord above for the United States of America.

00:05:11.000 Lord baby Jesus Sam Walton, thank you for your return policy.

00:05:16.000 And for those of you who don't, who are not Mug Club members, we're going to read your chat, but this is something we do.

00:05:23.000 There are a lot of shows that we do and a lot of jokes that don't quite make air on Thursday or what you see on YouTube, or sometimes they don't even make air behind the paywall for Mug Club at all.

00:05:33.000 And they just find their way, and I should be clear, some of them are because they're way too offensive.

00:05:40.000 He looked at me when he said that.

00:05:42.000 You know why?

00:05:43.000 Because Bill plays both sides of the fence.

00:05:46.000 He does.

00:05:47.000 When I said, let's do mug club quarantine, and here's the logo, but a little surgical mask?

00:05:52.000 I never know if Bill's going to be like, hey, hold on, that could be offensive.

00:05:54.000 I said, there's a little surgical mask and a rice paddy hat.

00:05:56.000 And Bill, I'm waiting for him.

00:05:57.000 He goes, you should put a zipper on that thing, make it a zipper head.

00:06:00.000 I'm like, what?

00:06:01.000 I cannot believe!

00:06:02.000 You don't know where he's gonna come from.

00:06:04.000 You don't know.

00:06:04.000 Sometimes he's got your best interest in mind and other times not.

00:06:07.000 Can I ask, I know you already asked people to put things down below in the comments, but can I hijack that as well?

00:06:11.000 Sure.

00:06:12.000 If anyone wants to help me on the legal side here, are any of these jokes ones that should not even have made it into Scrapyard?

00:06:18.000 I need help so we can keep this stuff out and off the air.

00:06:22.000 Let us know which of the following bits and or jokes or tidbits, anecdotes if you will, should never have seen the light of day at all.

00:06:31.000 You can't answer all of them.

00:06:32.000 All of the above is not an option.

00:06:34.000 So, welcome many of you, for the first time, to Scrapyard.

00:06:37.000 ♪♪ I have actually never seen...

00:06:44.000 Take that fade off there, Court of Blackheart. 0.52

00:06:46.000 I have never seen...

00:06:47.000 I put that in the intro every time.

00:06:48.000 ...that intro with the Muhammad picture in the goat.

00:06:52.000 That's new.

00:06:54.000 That's in there.

00:06:55.000 He just snuck that in there.

00:06:58.000 Just like he did with the goat.

00:07:01.000 I think your fatwa had expired.

00:07:02.000 He wants this shut down.

00:07:03.000 He already has his application accepted to the Young Turks.

00:07:06.000 He'll fit in.

00:07:08.000 Ouch, no you won't!

00:07:11.000 Hope you like nose jobs! 0.89

00:07:12.000 So, keep in mind some of these obviously may not seem topical anymore because some of them are very old, but a couple of weeks ago, Madonna made a video from her bathtub telling us that we should all be a little more like the coronavirus.

00:07:26.000 That's the thing about COVID-19, it doesn't care about how rich you are.

00:07:34.000 Does it care about the fact that even though you're a woman, those look like man tits? 0.96

00:07:37.000 And what's terrible about it is what's great about it.

00:07:43.000 Astute.

00:07:43.000 And now, very much like the coronavirus, I also want to kill me.

00:07:48.000 That was horrible and haunting and awful.

00:07:53.000 I am appreciative that she ditched her English accent, though.

00:07:56.000 That's true.

00:07:56.000 She's from Saginaw, Michigan.

00:07:58.000 We all know that people speak like Queen Elizabeth from Saginaw, Michigan.

00:08:03.000 I feel like there was a 50-50 shot the police would have found her dead in the tub after filming this.

00:08:08.000 That was definitely it.

00:08:10.000 It sounded like her final confession.

00:08:12.000 Well, one can hope.

00:08:15.000 By the way, I know her.

00:08:16.000 I've spent some time with her parents.

00:08:17.000 They run a lovely winery.

00:08:19.000 And I believe are very ashamed of their daughter.

00:08:21.000 As they should be.

00:08:23.000 While his trial was going on, see originally this was written, hey, this is in the news, but it's not in the news anymore.

00:08:30.000 While his trial was going on at some point, Harvey Weinstein, there it is, said he once read a 546 page book about Winston Churchill in one day.

00:08:40.000 His lawyers are calling it the smart rapist defense.

00:08:45.000 That's a good one.

00:08:48.000 We're going to see that in the comments.

00:08:51.000 When you have to compliment a joke, is it really good?

00:08:55.000 Your joke's complimented a lot.

00:08:56.000 Gerald delivers the punchline and the reaction is, that's so good for you.

00:09:01.000 Steven, you must have written this one, didn't you?

00:09:07.000 And now my confidence is shot.

00:09:11.000 A man was hospitalized when a woman bit his neck after he peed on her yoga mat.

00:09:20.000 Charges have been pressed by the man who told police that he was intoxicated and did not know what room he was in.

00:09:25.000 I don't see what the big deal is, said Judge R. Kelly.

00:09:31.000 It should be noted, or this was the alternative, right?

00:09:34.000 Punchline was it should be noted that this was from the latest episode of Celebrity Judge R. Kelly.

00:09:40.000 There you go.

00:09:41.000 And here's the issue is because often we write three, four, five jokes, and you see the ones that make air, so that's the A material.

00:09:50.000 And then sometimes you write many jokes and just none of them are even passable.

00:09:56.000 None of them could even pass as passable.

00:10:01.000 I tend to just get an email that says, we'll consider this for Scrapyard.

00:10:05.000 It's not even automatic.

00:10:06.000 Who gave you the email of anyone involved with production?

00:10:09.000 You mean that's not real?

00:10:10.000 No, you're not supposed to have that.

00:10:12.000 It's a fake one.

00:10:12.000 It's an auto response.

00:10:14.000 Whenever he says, hey, I have an idea, I send him through the ladder with a credit card contact form.

00:10:20.000 And then he tries to book me for a gig in Schenectady.

00:10:23.000 That's really weird.

00:10:24.000 Hey, do you think Gerald's going to find out that we've just been feeding his jokes to the Young Turks? 0.96

00:10:28.000 That's why their shit's so terrible?

00:10:30.000 They keep copying me.

00:10:31.000 It's so weird.

00:10:31.000 But they seem happy with it.

00:10:35.000 Back when the coronavirus thing, this whole, the coronavirus, this, you know, you've heard of it.

00:10:39.000 It was just getting big.

00:10:40.000 Actress, I don't like this one, actress Hilary Duff criticized, quote, millennial assholes That's right. 1.00

00:10:51.000 If they don't listen to every doctor on the planet, maybe they'll listen to Lizzie McGuire. 0.99

00:10:57.000 Step aside, Fauci! 0.99

00:11:01.000 I don't know if you can tell, like, I don't even believe in these.

00:11:03.000 No.

00:11:03.000 No, that was a good one!

00:11:05.000 You didn't, like, sell it as your own.

00:11:08.000 Hey, you need to make a couple of these and just do an episode for me and Gerald, because we like all these jokes.

00:11:12.000 We do!

00:11:13.000 We're sitting over here laughing.

00:11:14.000 We need to do a reveal, though.

00:11:15.000 We need to, like, rat out who wrote them.

00:11:17.000 I think that one was Audio Wade.

00:11:19.000 Was it Wade?

00:11:19.000 I meant, like, in the future, not immediately on the spot.

00:11:22.000 By the way, if you want to know, did Audio Wade contribute to that show map, nine times out of ten, it's a joke that includes the words, hot, hairy ass s***.

00:11:31.000 Yeah.

00:11:32.000 That's a lot.

00:11:33.000 That's a lot.

00:11:36.000 I asked him today.

00:11:37.000 I'm like, your dad watches the show.

00:11:38.000 Does he know that you write the hot, hairy asshole through line?

00:11:41.000 And you said, no, not at all.

00:11:43.000 Not at all.

00:11:44.000 Now he does.

00:11:46.000 Did you remember that one time we had the joke?

00:11:48.000 Who was it who said this is their daughter coming out?

00:11:52.000 Yeah, it was Elizabeth Smart, who was, I believe, kidnapped and sexually abused for several years, and it was a story about her dad coming out as gay.

00:12:02.000 That's right, and she was talking about how difficult that was.

00:12:04.000 So this is a true story.

00:12:06.000 So we don't really have a live studio audience, but we have, I don't know if we can, can we even show with that camera?

00:12:10.000 We have about eight seats there where either producers sit or sometimes family members of the crew, and so the joke there was Elizabeth Smart, I think, saying, my dad's gay?

00:12:19.000 This is the worst thing that's ever happened to me.

00:12:22.000 And we had a lesbian in the studio. 1.00

00:12:23.000 Yeah, at the time.

00:12:24.000 And she was roaring with laughter.

00:12:26.000 She loved it.

00:12:27.000 Oh my gosh, that's hilarious.

00:12:28.000 Which didn't surprise me because she's gay, it surprised me because most lesbians have no senses of humor and she was the exception to the rule. 1.00

00:12:28.000 She loved it. 1.00

00:12:34.000 There you go.

00:12:35.000 Gays are fun, lesbians usually not. 1.00

00:12:38.000 You know what's funny is if anyone comments and they're like, I didn't think it was funny, then they're proving the rule.

00:12:43.000 Yeah, they're proving exactly the rule because they're undoubtedly Hey Carpet Muncher, remember the gun protests in Virginia?

00:12:52.000 Locked it out.

00:12:53.000 Yeah, well eventually Governor Ralph Northam's assault weapons ban that he was pushing, I remember after that, failed.

00:13:00.000 When he heard the news Governor Northam was so sad he lynched himself.

00:13:04.000 Wow.

00:13:05.000 Is that even possible?

00:13:06.000 Because he was racist, right?

00:13:06.000 That's a net possibility.

00:13:07.000 With the black face.

00:13:08.000 Yeah, I got that.

00:13:09.000 He didn't know if he was... He didn't know.

00:13:11.000 Let me try that one again.

00:13:13.000 When he heard the news, Governor Northam was so sad, he burned a cross on his own lawn.

00:13:18.000 I think that's the winner in the comments.

00:13:21.000 I think that worked.

00:13:22.000 It's not bad.

00:13:23.000 Not at all.

00:13:23.000 It's plausible.

00:13:24.000 I think that's the winner in the comments.

00:13:25.000 This is the scrapyard, people.

00:13:29.000 The good, the bad, and the ugly.

00:13:30.000 Here you go.

00:13:30.000 You know what?

00:13:31.000 It just shows you.

00:13:31.000 You never know what's going to work because I thought Lynch... I thought that Lynch himself was funnier than Lizzie McGuire.

00:13:36.000 I thought it was too.

00:13:38.000 I vote for that at least.

00:13:40.000 I vote Lizzie McGuire.

00:13:44.000 I was about to say, who's the other Duff?

00:13:46.000 There's the other one.

00:13:46.000 Haley Duff.

00:13:48.000 How sad is that that I almost mixed up the Duffs in my head? 0.98

00:13:51.000 I have such a repertoire of the Duffs. 1.00

00:13:54.000 I shouldn't have this information.

00:13:56.000 Can we get rid of that for CDC statistics or something?

00:13:59.000 Can I fit something useful?

00:14:01.000 And I know that one of the Duffs, this is how, this is, every one of you should just kick my ass. 1.00

00:14:07.000 This should be like an Acme cartoon where it's just a pile of dust and then it's a bloody corpse.

00:14:12.000 I know that Haley Duff was on 7th Heaven. 0.99

00:14:16.000 I don't know why!

00:14:17.000 Hillary Duff's sister! 1.00

00:14:19.000 She was the one that did the stanky leg after she was lip syncing on SNL. 1.00

00:14:22.000 The fact that you know that is Ashley Simpson.

00:14:23.000 No, no, that's Ashley Simpson. 0.74

00:14:25.000 Isn't that Ashley Simpson? 1.00

00:14:26.000 Ashley Simpson, yeah.

00:14:28.000 I appreciate you injecting a little bit of racial diversity by saying stanky leg. 1.00

00:14:32.000 Is this like a Teen Vogue show now?

00:14:34.000 What the hell's going on here?

00:14:36.000 No, it's just a bad show.

00:14:38.000 Stinky leg dance. 0.97

00:14:39.000 Stanky leg dance.

00:14:41.000 That's him trying to be coy about the fact that he has all of Ashley Simpson's albums.

00:14:46.000 But I'm still black.

00:14:48.000 Stanky leg.

00:14:48.000 Ashley Simpson ain't got no stanky leg.

00:14:51.000 You got stanky leg?

00:14:53.000 I got some chunky leg.

00:14:55.000 I'm not accepted among any of my peers.

00:14:58.000 Can we high five here?

00:14:59.000 White nor black. 0.99

00:15:02.000 Quarter Black, you have no home. 1.00

00:15:03.000 I know.

00:15:03.000 You do.

00:15:04.000 That's why you need me.

00:15:05.000 We love you.

00:15:06.000 You need me so that I don't thrust you out into the cold world that we know!

00:15:11.000 So this happened back in February.

00:15:13.000 Michaela Spielberg, not Michaela Peterson, by the way.

00:15:18.000 One of them, daughter to the most prolific director, producer of all time.

00:15:23.000 The other one loves Ribeye. 0.98

00:15:25.000 Loves a ribeye.

00:15:26.000 Loves ribeye.

00:15:29.000 Vitamin C?

00:15:30.000 Nothing wrong with that.

00:15:31.000 Fake news.

00:15:32.000 So, Michaela Spielberg, daughter of... No, actually, and of course I love Jordan Peterson, and his daughter will actually probably be on the show.

00:15:37.000 It's just the carnivore diet, you know.

00:15:39.000 I just... It just wasn't good for my stool.

00:15:41.000 Michaela Spielberg, daughter of Steven Spielberg.

00:15:44.000 She announced that she is attempting to become a sex worker.

00:15:48.000 Maybe this could have been avoided if her father spent a little more time raising his kids, a little less time executive producing cats.

00:15:56.000 Which is not so much a joke as it is trying to highlight the monstrosity of his cats.

00:16:01.000 This is one of those things where the joke is too on the nose, right?

00:16:05.000 Like literally everyone regrets his time with cats.

00:16:08.000 It's too on the whiskers?

00:16:11.000 No.

00:16:11.000 I want to hurt me!

00:16:12.000 You should.

00:16:13.000 By the way, I thought, like, if you were becoming a sex... Like, the bar's pretty low to be a sex worker.

00:16:17.000 She's trying to become... Like, is she failing at this? 1.00

00:16:20.000 All this paperwork... Really?

00:16:22.000 Is there a union?

00:16:23.000 I don't think so.

00:16:24.000 I have no idea.

00:16:25.000 What do you do?

00:16:25.000 Is it $10.99, that shit?

00:16:28.000 Yeah, yeah, you're probably a contractor.

00:16:29.000 You choose your own hours.

00:16:32.000 Bring your own equipment.

00:16:33.000 Uncle Sam, he's always waiting for his cut of the pie, am I right?

00:16:36.000 The biggest pimp of them all.

00:16:37.000 Am I right?

00:16:38.000 So disgusting.

00:16:39.000 You should be able to do what you want with that, and Uncle Sam ain't got nothing to do with it.

00:16:42.000 Wait, no.

00:16:43.000 Uncle Sam wants you.

00:16:45.000 Yeah, I heard that before.

00:16:46.000 Stanky leg, right?

00:16:47.000 That's what it should be.

00:16:49.000 This is a terrible show.

00:16:52.000 Louder was crowd at Mug Club Quarantine Month at the Apollo.

00:16:54.000 That's just... According to doctors, by the way, putting potatoes up your butt won't cure hemorrhoids. 0.98

00:17:05.000 Oh, it won't?

00:17:06.000 Dang it.

00:17:07.000 What am I walking around all day?

00:17:09.000 If you needed a doctor to tell you that, then I'm afraid you need a doctor.

00:17:14.000 Different kind, though.

00:17:16.000 Also, stop using up all the wet wipes in the studio bathroom.

00:17:20.000 Tim from H.R.

00:17:22.000 Tim.

00:17:23.000 Frickin' Tim.

00:17:23.000 Is that why the bathroom's always filled with tater tots?

00:17:26.000 He's like, I'll try these.

00:17:28.000 That's also why you always hear ding when he goes in.

00:17:34.000 This is the kind of stuff that makes Scrapyard.

00:17:36.000 Yes, the implication was that his rectum is similar to a toaster oven.

00:17:40.000 Don't say I didn't warn you.

00:17:41.000 You saw the intro with the Scrapyard.

00:17:43.000 I'm still here.

00:17:43.000 We warned.

00:17:44.000 That absolves me.

00:17:46.000 No responsibility.

00:17:47.000 Much warned.

00:17:48.000 And a promotional tie-in with, I really hate this one.

00:17:51.000 I do.

00:17:51.000 This is terrible.

00:17:52.000 You know what the worst part is about this next one?

00:17:54.000 Is that this whole thing that is now Scrapyard, it was a 7 plus 1.

00:17:58.000 What?

00:17:59.000 I don't know what we were thinking.

00:18:01.000 The one is bad enough.

00:18:03.000 Too much of a lead-in.

00:18:08.000 In a promotional time with Buffalo Wild Wings, rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony has changed their name to Boneless Thugs-N-Harmony.

00:18:15.000 That's the real story.

00:18:16.000 They've also announced their summer tour alongside Run KFC, Shake Shack Mafia, and Southwest Chicken Salads with Attitude.

00:18:25.000 Just because I know that Wade has no idea as to what it feels like to want to swallow a knife when you have a joke that bombs Giving him air support.

00:18:38.000 I appreciate it was awesome Wait the voicing was great on that.

00:18:43.000 I mean the joke sucked.

00:18:44.000 I appreciate read it well.

00:18:45.000 Yeah You're a nice guy director Anything else you want to get out of your system here with Scrapyard before we go to any kind of live chat?

00:18:55.000 I want to do this one.

00:18:56.000 You want to do this one?

00:18:57.000 Wait, hold on a second.

00:18:59.000 Just so you know, I changed it right before air because it was offensive.

00:19:05.000 So I'm just letting you know.

00:19:07.000 I just want to give you enough time so you could see it.

00:19:07.000 All right.

00:19:08.000 Okay.

00:19:09.000 Half-Asian Bill. 0.89

00:19:09.000 All right. 0.89

00:19:10.000 So Director Quentin Tarantino and his wife have welcomed their first child.

00:19:14.000 What was that?

00:19:16.000 He sounded like Bill Superfoot Waltz in the first UFC.

00:19:19.000 I was gonna say, it sounded like Goofy.

00:19:22.000 So, director Quentin Tarantino and his wife have welcomed their first child.

00:19:25.000 That's nice.

00:19:26.000 Yeah, from Fox News.

00:19:27.000 Tarantino said the birth was the most beautiful experience of his life.

00:19:31.000 However, it could have used more blood and N-words.

00:19:33.000 Yeah, could always use more.

00:19:35.000 It could always use more.

00:19:36.000 All the time.

00:19:36.000 An exploding human being, maybe.

00:19:38.000 You've seen his movies.

00:19:38.000 And you know what, this was...

00:19:41.000 We're all familiar with the saddle.

00:19:43.000 And I think the original one was like... I think this one, if I'm not mistaken, we had a really late night.

00:19:49.000 It might have been after the stream when we were writing this.

00:19:52.000 And I think it stemmed from me doing a mild Quentin Tarantino impression.

00:19:55.000 And McBrodigan, for some reason, assumed that we had the budget for prosthetics to make me look like Quentin Tarantino.

00:20:03.000 He could have used more blood in N-word. 0.67

00:20:06.000 But it doesn't work without that face that's been twisted from decades of evil.

00:20:10.000 This weird Sam Spade face.

00:20:13.000 Sometimes you get the face you deserve, and then sometimes, in Quentin Tarantino's case, you get the face that nobody deserves.

00:20:19.000 I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

00:20:20.000 I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

00:20:23.000 Before we go to the meat segment, AudioWay, do we have anything from live chat?

00:20:27.000 I believe we do.

00:20:29.000 Yeah, what do we have?

00:20:29.000 Yeah, so MJ says, have any of you, Steven, Garrett, Bill, Wade, taken the, and Gerald, Gerald's here too, taken the political compass quiz, and would you be open to doing a segment on it like you did with the white privilege and microaggressions quizzes?

00:20:42.000 Uh, you know, I think, didn't Ben Shapiro do that?

00:20:45.000 I think so.

00:20:45.000 I believe so, yeah.

00:20:46.000 And so, I think I did it a long time ago, back when this was still on radio, so, you know, just more proof positive that he copies me.

00:20:55.000 I guess we could revisit it if we wanted to be unoriginal times two.

00:21:00.000 You and Ben are so similar.

00:21:01.000 We should just make Gerald do it and the rest of us will just roast him while he's doing it.

00:21:06.000 Yes!

00:21:07.000 That's a bad idea.

00:21:07.000 I would do that.

00:21:08.000 I don't think it's a good idea.

00:21:10.000 You know what, maybe if we see enough people in the comments section who want me to do the political compass quiz, sure.

00:21:14.000 My guess is I'll probably be considered a basic bitch traditional conservative. 0.99

00:21:18.000 Libertarian, I think people are often surprised, like, people are often surprised because I just say, the weed thing is what people get upset.

00:21:24.000 Like, listen, I actually think states should be able to legalize weed, and I think it's silly that it's a Schedule 1 substance, and I think that CBD shows a lot of promise.

00:21:32.000 I just think that people aren't responsible when they tell kids, like, it's less than a beer.

00:21:36.000 No, no.

00:21:37.000 Some people can have, can smoke and go crazy.

00:21:40.000 That's true.

00:21:41.000 It's not common.

00:21:41.000 It's a side effect.

00:21:43.000 I just, but I also think states should be able to legalize heroin if they want to.

00:21:48.000 I just don't think heroin's a good idea, so people are often surprised at how libertarian I am.

00:21:52.000 Legal disclaimer, Steven Crowder does not recommend that you engage in hard drug use.

00:21:57.000 Of course not.

00:21:57.000 Thank you.

00:21:58.000 For Law & Orth Crowder, it's crack or nothing.

00:22:00.000 Crack or die, bitches! 1.00

00:22:01.000 Nope.

00:22:03.000 As a matter of fact, there's a number at the bottom of the screen.

00:22:06.000 If you order your crack now from lawandorthcrowder.com slash Mug Club, you get a free toy.

00:22:11.000 Hint, it's just more crack.

00:22:13.000 Promo code ROCK.

00:22:15.000 And we do have one more chat.

00:22:16.000 Might be cut with a little PCP because we cut costs where we can!

00:22:20.000 Angel dust.

00:22:20.000 He's the drug pusher!

00:22:22.000 One more chat.

00:22:24.000 So someone says resubscribe to Mug Club with the promo code.

00:22:27.000 Love you guys.

00:22:28.000 Audio wave you should release an album.

00:22:29.000 I didn't know this said this before.

00:22:30.000 Did you know?

00:22:31.000 Did you have plans for an album?

00:22:33.000 I didn't read ahead.

00:22:33.000 No, no plans, no.

00:22:35.000 Well, you do have the voice of an angel.

00:22:37.000 Thank you.

00:22:38.000 A male angel.

00:22:39.000 Mixed with the sweetest of honeys.

00:22:42.000 Wow.

00:22:42.000 Why, thank you, Steven.

00:22:43.000 That's great.

00:22:44.000 No, he does have a very good voice, and not only that, but Wade's not arrogant about it either.

00:22:47.000 Like, Wade is very encouraging and helping other people with that.

00:22:50.000 I still don't like him, but... Me either.

00:22:52.000 You know, we've talked about this doing an album because we have like 20 tracks.

00:22:58.000 So much this year.

00:22:59.000 We've done parodies out.

00:23:00.000 But the thing is, it's so hard.

00:23:01.000 Do we put it in?

00:23:02.000 Let us know.

00:23:02.000 You know what?

00:23:02.000 That's another thing.

00:23:03.000 Kind of like a chat on YouTube here.

00:23:05.000 Should we put it on Spotify?

00:23:07.000 I don't know the best way to do it.

00:23:08.000 Spotify iTunes?

00:23:09.000 I would.

00:23:10.000 Make it exclusive for people who are Mug Club members, so that way Mug Club members don't have to pay anything, and you can just download it on the site, but I have no idea how to do this.

00:23:17.000 Seriously, every time we end up doing parodies, I would buy a CD of our best ones.

00:23:22.000 I would have it on, it'd be hilarious.

00:23:24.000 You'd put it next to your Batman soundtrack, an all-for-one debut album, and nothing else on the shelf?

00:23:29.000 Yes, but I would actually probably ask, I'd be like, hey, since I'm on the show, can I get a free copy, like a bootleg?

00:23:34.000 That's a no.

00:23:35.000 Maybe I wouldn't actually buy it.

00:23:36.000 You're overpaid as it is!

00:23:39.000 We'll just take it out of your check.

00:23:41.000 Let us know how we should do this.

00:23:42.000 I don't know anything about this.

00:23:43.000 We do the podcasting that goes up on all these profiles.

00:23:46.000 Music, you have to master it right.

00:23:47.000 Because the iTunes thing, is it even still a thing?

00:23:50.000 The iTunes store?

00:23:51.000 Can you buy albums?

00:23:52.000 What do you mean?

00:23:52.000 Is it a thing?

00:23:53.000 No, I don't think it is.

00:23:53.000 Yes, of course.

00:23:54.000 Apple Music.

00:23:55.000 I don't know if you can buy it.

00:23:59.000 Maybe you still can.

00:24:00.000 I don't know.

00:24:00.000 Thanks a lot, Taylor Swift.

00:24:02.000 Oh, you're such a disruptor.

00:24:05.000 Let's go!

00:24:07.000 Let's go!

00:24:07.000 Now that we've gotten all that out of our system, let us know if you ever want to see another scrapyard again.

00:24:11.000 Let's go to the meat! 0.82

00:24:16.000 See, that was a short stinger, except Bill was laughing uncontrollably.

00:24:21.000 I was.

00:24:22.000 I'm sorry.

00:24:23.000 We had to redo the stinger a little bit.

00:24:26.000 I'm just going to laugh thinking about it.

00:24:28.000 Slightly off-color joke about Native American naming.

00:24:33.000 That's all it took.

00:24:34.000 Naming methods.

00:24:35.000 I don't know if we call them methods.

00:24:36.000 Let's be honest.

00:24:37.000 Formulas?

00:24:39.000 You know, take a shot of Windex, whatever comes out, call it a day.

00:24:42.000 It's infectious humor.

00:24:44.000 Is ayahuasca a Native American thing?

00:24:46.000 I think it's South American.

00:24:48.000 South American?

00:24:49.000 Yeah, is it?

00:24:49.000 What's the vision quest the Native Americans take?

00:24:52.000 Vision quest?

00:24:53.000 What did I say?

00:24:54.000 I'm pretty sure that's like a late 80s arcade system.

00:24:56.000 No, that was a film with Matthew Modine, but it's an actual thing they do, a vision quest.

00:24:59.000 Yeah, I don't know about that.

00:25:00.000 No, I do know about that.

00:25:01.000 No, I mean, I don't know anything about it.

00:25:02.000 Oh, yeah.

00:25:03.000 Well, yeah, because you don't do drugs, aside from those prescribed, which cause... Peyote.

00:25:07.000 Gross physical... Peyote!

00:25:10.000 Peyote! 0.99

00:25:11.000 I was looking for a lifeline because I didn't want to stop on not knowing.

00:25:14.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:25:15.000 Thank you!

00:25:15.000 And he was playing it all cool, like, I don't know anything about drugs.

00:25:17.000 Peyote?

00:25:17.000 What are you talking about?

00:25:18.000 PCP?

00:25:18.000 DMT?

00:25:19.000 Which one do you want?

00:25:20.000 I got some right here.

00:25:21.000 Opens the trunk to his Jeep.

00:25:23.000 I just remember it from Young Guns.

00:25:24.000 Don't let my lawyers see this.

00:25:25.000 I've been in there.

00:25:27.000 It's hilarious.

00:25:28.000 So, we've all been in there.

00:25:31.000 I think we have.

00:25:31.000 I don't know what that means.

00:25:32.000 I have no idea.

00:25:33.000 Get a new shirt, Gerald!

00:25:34.000 Nope, go Irish! 1.00

00:25:37.000 What?

00:25:37.000 Oh, I didn't even read it.

00:25:39.000 I didn't pay that much attention.

00:25:40.000 You assumed we all were reading it.

00:25:41.000 Yes.

00:25:41.000 You should.

00:25:43.000 So, here's my question today before we move on a little bit, and I know people will be upset and it's controversial and yeah, I don't really care.

00:25:49.000 At what point Do you think that we need to consider reopening the American economy?

00:25:56.000 One, do you think the ill effects of staying shut down could be worse than the virus itself?

00:25:59.000 By the way, everyone here cares about every single life lost, okay?

00:26:02.000 None of us hate old people, none of us think the virus is... Just want to be clear about all that.

00:26:05.000 That being said, I do think there is some bullshit afoot.

00:26:08.000 So! 0.81

00:26:10.000 Past week, Donald Trump has been talking about, and by the way, I'd just love if you didn't watch the presser yesterday.

00:26:15.000 I'm thinking, let me know what you think.

00:26:16.000 I'm thinking about just running the Donald Trump press briefings on this channel or on Crowder Bits live because CNN cut out to do the job that the media won't do.

00:26:24.000 Did you see him present that video last night?

00:26:26.000 He presented, he came in with a video of his timeline.

00:26:30.000 And a lot, just to be really clear, because a lot of people saw the video.

00:26:32.000 They didn't see the feed of him presenting the video to the room.

00:26:36.000 Did you see that?

00:26:36.000 Yeah, I did.

00:26:37.000 So he's, there's a video that comes up and it shows a timeline.

00:26:39.000 And he put, the timeline says, you know, in states, China travel ban.

00:26:42.000 And he goes...

00:26:46.000 At one point he's playing a montage like we'll do here that indicts the media where they're saying you should be more worried about the flu this is not a concern and Nancy Pelosi saying you know I'll come down to Chinatown and at one point there's someone from CBS who says you should worry more about the flu and he goes that's right.

00:26:59.000 Any points?

00:27:03.000 I love it.

00:27:04.000 It's petty and childish and exactly what we need.

00:27:07.000 He was defending himself.

00:27:09.000 Come on.

00:27:09.000 They started it.

00:27:11.000 This world could use a little bit more petty childishness.

00:27:14.000 Childish?

00:27:14.000 Childish what?

00:27:15.000 Cornish game hen?

00:27:16.000 Why'd I stop?

00:27:17.000 Childish!

00:27:18.000 So he, throughout this past week, and again when you remove the Trumpisms, I think that

00:27:22.000 we're about to see entirely reasonable.

00:27:24.000 He's mentioned a date of May 1st, but nothing concrete.

00:27:27.000 He has talked about entertaining the idea of reopening certain portions of the economy.

00:27:32.000 Let's take it in context.

00:27:33.000 Here's what he said.

00:27:34.000 I don't know that I've had a bigger decision, but I'm going to surround myself with the

00:27:38.000 greatest minds, not only the greatest minds, but the greatest minds in numerous different

00:27:44.000 businesses, including the business of politics and reason.

00:27:49.000 And we're going to make a decision and hopefully it's going to be the right decision.

00:27:52.000 I will say this, uh, I want to get it open as soon as we can.

00:27:55.000 Great minds from politics and reason.

00:27:58.000 And his chief of staff is like, note to self, hire a writer from reason.

00:28:02.000 Nick Gillespie, great sidebirds.

00:28:05.000 I also hear Matt Kibbe has them, but I'm not familiar, but I hear they're good folks.

00:28:11.000 What is it with libertarians and sideburns?

00:28:14.000 I guess they're all previous rockabilly cover band enthusiasts.

00:28:18.000 So that was what he said.

00:28:19.000 I don't know.

00:28:19.000 I think that was pretty reasonable when you remove the great industries like politics, philosophy, Plato.

00:28:28.000 Plated, dinner, ready at home.

00:28:30.000 I love that service.

00:28:31.000 That's not even really... Excuse me.

00:28:34.000 But the media reacted as you would expect them to react, as though that, which was a pretty, I think, measured response, saying at some point we need to balance lives and livelihoods, but the media has reacted a...go.

00:28:49.000 I mean, there's no way we can even start to think about opening things back up unless we've got a few things in place.

00:28:55.000 The former reality show star tells a story about American resilience.

00:29:01.000 What he lacks in empathy for the dead, he makes up for in his insistence that the country will come back stronger than ever.

00:29:07.000 He came back fatter than ever, right?

00:29:12.000 Poor Balder.

00:29:14.000 President Trump's new date for getting the country back to work is May 1st.

00:29:20.000 I see no chance that's going to happen.

00:29:22.000 I don't think there's any likelihood of states such as New York and California saying fine.

00:29:27.000 We'll just send everybody back on May 1st because they're worried we would just have another outbreak again and the hospital systems would be overwhelmed all over again.

00:29:35.000 You are correct.

00:29:36.000 He is Benjamin.

00:29:37.000 At the end of that segment, it was just a suit with a tie and a head.

00:29:42.000 And a needless budget that wasn't recouped.

00:29:45.000 That guy belongs on Good Morning Mug Club.

00:29:46.000 He's wearing a bathrobe.

00:29:49.000 The gap is shrinking.

00:29:50.000 It's the race to the middle.

00:29:51.000 So this is remarkable.

00:29:53.000 Let's look and see if there is even a case remotely for reopening the economy, or when that case should be made, or if we can, contrary to what Rachel Maddow says, think about it.

00:30:05.000 You can't even think yet.

00:30:06.000 We can't even start to think?

00:30:07.000 I think we can start.

00:30:08.000 I think we can think.

00:30:10.000 We can do both.

00:30:11.000 I think, therefore, I'm not Rachel Maddow.

00:30:14.000 So that's, there's a delineating.

00:30:15.000 That's how it works.

00:30:16.000 Back to, was it Plato?

00:30:18.000 Back to philosophy, humor.

00:30:20.000 It's a genre.

00:30:22.000 I like how controversial it is to be thinking.

00:30:25.000 Listen, you can't even think, people.

00:30:28.000 I just want to let you know, just listen to me, Rachel Maddow.

00:30:31.000 I'll tell you the answers.

00:30:32.000 Don't think.

00:30:32.000 Why would I respect your opinion?

00:30:33.000 You don't even have mutton chops.

00:30:36.000 So let's look at this.

00:30:40.000 People just throw numbers in a vacuum.

00:30:41.000 This is what the media has done.

00:30:43.000 And I think context matters.

00:30:45.000 You've heard me talk about this consistently.

00:30:47.000 Context over content.

00:30:48.000 When you take the numbers into context, the United States is actually doing surprisingly well.

00:30:52.000 You can focus on raw total numbers.

00:30:54.000 And then I think one person, when I tweeted out an article that was removed from Medium, they said, well, why are you saying the per capita numbers matter more than total?

00:31:00.000 Because if a country has 30 million people and a country has 330 million people, the per capita numbers kind of matter.

00:31:04.000 It does, just a little.

00:31:05.000 I think it's more relevant.

00:31:06.000 You let me know which metrics you think are more relevant.

00:31:09.000 That being said, we're still doing better than Europe.

00:31:11.000 Which part?

00:31:12.000 All of it.

00:31:12.000 Except for Germany, which surprises me, but I think there's a coup in the works.

00:31:16.000 Keep your eyes on them.

00:31:18.000 Shifty Germans every time. 1.00

00:31:20.000 The deaths per capita, per one million, and you can go to Worldometer and hit this, use this metric to list them, I think is what's most important.

00:31:28.000 Because testing rates aren't accurate.

00:31:30.000 Infection rates aren't accurate.

00:31:31.000 We don't necessarily know how accurate the antibody tests are.

00:31:33.000 The death rate, the mortality rate, of course, is based on a percentage of how many will die versus how many people test positive.

00:31:39.000 So what is concrete that is undeniable is how many people have died from the virus, and then specifically, to put into context, how many people per capita.

00:31:47.000 So you don't see that number covered a whole lot from the media.

00:31:51.000 Why?

00:31:51.000 Well, a couple of things.

00:31:52.000 When you do see it covered, this is important too, you see a graph like this.

00:31:56.000 This is how it's presented.

00:31:56.000 Let's bring this up.

00:31:57.000 So look at that.

00:31:58.000 That graph looks pretty bad, but keep that up there for a little bit.

00:32:00.000 The reason that that graph looks that way is that they are tracking from when deaths registered.

00:32:06.000 This is what is called logarithmic?

00:32:07.000 Logarithmic?

00:32:09.000 Logarithmic?

00:32:09.000 Logo?

00:32:10.000 Log?

00:32:10.000 I've only ever read these words.

00:32:12.000 I've never pronounced them.

00:32:13.000 Logarithmic.

00:32:14.000 I have very little interaction with human beings outside of the studio.

00:32:17.000 I read words and name.

00:32:19.000 Bring that back up.

00:32:20.000 Notice something?

00:32:21.000 There's the same distance between 1 and 10 as 10 to 100.

00:32:25.000 Now, I understand why that's necessary if you have a graph where the number is so exponential that it would all of a sudden end up off the graph.

00:32:32.000 That's not the case here.

00:32:33.000 Let's look at the exact same numbers.

00:32:35.000 And by the way, that presentation, of course, favors smaller countries.

00:32:38.000 It masks sort of the contrast between the United States and smaller countries.

00:32:40.000 Look at the exact same numbers, and our brilliant researcher, Reg, created a sort of properly spaced linear y-axis, counting, again, while we're talking about response time, which is what the media is talking about, from the day of the first death, since that's what matters as far as response time.

00:32:55.000 Do you notice something?

00:32:56.000 Notice that?

00:32:58.000 The United States is lower than everyone by a significant margin with the exception of Germany.

00:33:02.000 Does that say we're losing?

00:33:04.000 No, it's like golf, Bill.

00:33:06.000 You want to be lower.

00:33:07.000 There's someone right there right now like, mm-mm, mm-mm.

00:33:10.000 No, we're not going to be second to anyone.

00:33:12.000 Certainly not France.

00:33:15.000 Licking poles Those numbers up change that graph myself

00:33:20.000 Well, and all you hear basically is that the United States has the largest number of cases in the world of the largest

00:33:25.000 number of deaths whatever they tend to throw it I'm like guys you're

00:33:27.000 even if that were true even if we had the Don't trust time

00:33:31.000 Yeah, they've got four times a population but I mean I read it on Bloomberg

00:33:38.000 Don't trust Jen.

00:33:39.000 Oh, that's true.

00:33:40.000 I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it.

00:33:42.000 Thank you, Bloomberg, for telling me what to know.

00:33:44.000 Yeah, well, yeah, I love how we actually act as though Bloomberg was written by Bloomberg.

00:33:48.000 Right.

00:33:48.000 Which, by the way, would immediately discredit all, like, the reason Bloomberg is valuable is because he has nothing to do with it.

00:33:54.000 Yes.

00:33:56.000 So virtually all of Europe, with the exception of Germany.

00:33:58.000 Again, not a hoax, the virus, but it certainly at no point has been as bad as the media made it out to be.

00:34:04.000 Keep in context, 2.5 million, or if we implement social distancing measures right away, extremely, the minimum is 100 to 240,000.

00:34:10.000 And then the number was reduced.

00:34:12.000 That wasn't in the absence of social distancing, that was taking into account social distancing.

00:34:15.000 Some more examples, this matters, because just like climate change, Florida's supposed to be gone, we aren't supposed to have some kind of a rainbow fish, I don't know.

00:34:21.000 Sadly.

00:34:21.000 Still there.

00:34:22.000 Great Lakes, record highs.

00:34:23.000 Florida's fine.

00:34:23.000 Same techniques, by the way, being used as people who, if you say, I'll go back to the climate change thing.

00:34:29.000 New York, this was a good example.

00:34:30.000 Even where Donald Trump, I thought that he was wrong, where I was like, wow, that's petty.

00:34:34.000 So New York, they said that they needed 40,000 ventilators.

00:34:37.000 Trump sent 4,000.

00:34:37.000 They didn't even use all of them.

00:34:38.000 But he questioned their need for them.

00:34:40.000 I remember watching the presser going, that's not a smart move.

00:34:42.000 They say they need 40,000 ventilators.

00:34:46.000 I don't know what to say.

00:34:46.000 We might have to look into what they're doing with ventilators.

00:34:48.000 And everyone goes, how dare you question their numbers?

00:34:50.000 And I was even like, why would you question their numbers?

00:34:52.000 That's a losing battle.

00:34:53.000 You know why?

00:34:54.000 Because they need less than four.

00:34:56.000 Less than 10% of the ventilators they claim they needed, and he was saying, we should keep them here so we can send them to states who need them, not give them as a stockpile with no pre-existing terms to barbell nipple.

00:35:10.000 Hey, I thought they were both barbells.

00:35:14.000 Are they both barbells?

00:35:14.000 I don't know.

00:35:15.000 I don't know, but let's keep the rumor alive as though it's accurate.

00:35:18.000 Absolutely.

00:35:18.000 Well, and it's like if you question any of the information, so states can say, oh my god, there's going to be a panic, and say, I need a lot more than you actually need.

00:35:25.000 Well, we're seeing now, like, no, he was right on all of these points.

00:35:27.000 Well, to be clear, he didn't say it was right.

00:35:29.000 de Blasio said, yeah, we didn't, we're good.

00:35:31.000 No, de Blasio said that, but my point now is that when Rachel Maddow and company come out and say, well, we can't possibly reopen the economy, I mean, how could you ever possibly?

00:35:37.000 It's like, well, guys, you haven't I haven't been right on anything yet.

00:35:40.000 Donald Trump doesn't care about dying patients in New York because he wants some ventilators.

00:35:44.000 He was saying, I don't think you need all of these ventilators right now.

00:35:47.000 And guess what?

00:35:47.000 If you do, we'll send them.

00:35:48.000 Right.

00:35:48.000 And right now they have a federal stockpile of over 10,000 ventilators.

00:35:51.000 So in other words, they would have sent their entire stockpile to New York without the ability to send them to other states who might need them.

00:35:57.000 So de Blasio said, we're good.

00:35:58.000 Here's another thing.

00:35:59.000 Some of these are anecdotal, but these are things that you heard in the media, and then when they turn out to not come to fruition, they just move on.

00:36:06.000 Like Florida.

00:36:06.000 Still there!

00:36:09.000 Last we checked.

00:36:10.000 Seattle was a big one.

00:36:11.000 Remember, you saw all this publicity.

00:36:12.000 They set up an emergency 250-bed sort of army field hospital for the surge.

00:36:17.000 Never saw a patient packed up and left after nine days.

00:36:20.000 Now, I want to be clear, that's not saying that no surge could happen, but it was predicted concretely that unless you get them what they need, unless 40,000 ventilators, unless we open up extra hospitals, people will die.

00:36:31.000 Why don't you care about people dying?

00:36:34.000 That was what was sold to us.

00:36:36.000 And in nearly every instance, it's been...

00:36:40.000 A fraction.

00:36:41.000 Right.

00:36:41.000 A fraction of what they've claimed.

00:36:43.000 By the way, speaking of fractions, because this has nothing to do with them, hit the notification bell.

00:36:48.000 That was a hard pivot.

00:36:50.000 It was a bad pivot.

00:36:50.000 I've seen better.

00:36:51.000 It was a shit-pit.

00:36:52.000 So, notification bell, hit all notifications, and of course, quarantine is a promo code right now.

00:36:58.000 All of this, if you haven't been convinced, all of this is available for free this month, Mug Club Quarantine.

00:37:04.000 Yeah.

00:37:04.000 Well, and Benjamin Button, at the end of that last video, the guy with the bow tie and the bathrobe, said, if we open this economy back up on May 1st... Did you really feel the need to specify that?

00:37:11.000 I did, yes.

00:37:12.000 Which one?

00:37:12.000 The one we all agreed was Benjamin Button?

00:37:15.000 There was one person out there who didn't understand what I said.

00:37:17.000 That was for you.

00:37:18.000 So he said, basically, if we open this back up, all of the hospitals are again going to be overrun.

00:37:23.000 And I'm like, wait a minute.

00:37:23.000 Can you show me all of the hospitals being overrun now?

00:37:26.000 I mean, there may be some examples of that, but very, very few.

00:37:29.000 And this is something they don't tell you.

00:37:30.000 Hospitals are higher, their beds, their ICU beds, are at higher fill rates than they were in the past.

00:37:37.000 So that may mean that a hospital goes from a typical fill rate of like 57% of hospital beds are occupied, an occupied rate, to 67.

00:37:43.000 Or it might go from 67 to 86.

00:37:45.000 And so they're not necessarily ready to handle this load, but it doesn't mean that all of the beds are filled and they need another hospital.

00:37:51.000 And that's what we've been sold.

00:37:52.000 So the numbers, in context, Matter.

00:37:55.000 Well, and just because it's happening in New York doesn't mean it's happening in Des Moines, right?

00:37:58.000 So it's not like all hospitals are being overrun.

00:38:00.000 There may be pockets that are.

00:38:02.000 Don't sully Des Moines' fine reputation by throwing him into the same breath as New York City.

00:38:07.000 Just kidding.

00:38:07.000 Welcome to New York.

00:38:11.000 There's no song for Des Moines.

00:38:12.000 It ends after the half of the first verse.

00:38:16.000 Welcome to Des Moines!

00:38:19.000 Here's an exception, by the way, in Europe.

00:38:20.000 Sweden.

00:38:21.000 So Sweden is still actually doing better than many of the surrounding countries, despite not having a lockdown.

00:38:25.000 And I know that it's tough to compare all countries, because it's tough to compare their healthcare systems, and Sweden is actually more free enterprise-based than a lot of places out there.

00:38:33.000 A lot of people don't realize that.

00:38:34.000 Certainly, as far as how they treat businesses, some people don't take into account South Korea.

00:38:37.000 South Korea didn't do a full shutdown.

00:38:38.000 Now, granted, they doxed their citizens, but They also decided to protect the most vulnerable among them, quarantine those people. 0.58

00:38:46.000 I suggested that here with my Korean doctor.

00:38:47.000 Everyone thought that I didn't care about old people dying. 1.00

00:38:49.000 So joke's on you because, um, I don't know why it's on you.

00:38:54.000 Uh, I still care about anyone dying.

00:38:55.000 I want to be clear.

00:38:56.000 Let me just backtrack this.

00:38:57.000 Old people shouldn't die ever.

00:38:59.000 If I were president, no one would ever die.

00:39:02.000 Wow.

00:39:03.000 Not sure you can make that claim.

00:39:05.000 Credit 2024.

00:39:05.000 So, we do need to balance this, the numbers that we've been presented, right?

00:39:10.000 And you have to say, okay, in context, how much does this paint a total picture?

00:39:15.000 What can we predict versus what we know?

00:39:18.000 And that's what matters when you're weighing lives versus livelihoods.

00:39:22.000 So we don't know exactly what the total death count will be.

00:39:25.000 We don't know what the mortality rate is.

00:39:26.000 We know that it's exceedingly low for people who don't have diabetes or pre-existing conditions,

00:39:30.000 conditions below the age of 80 in Italy, below the age of 70 in most countries.

00:39:35.000 Depends where you go.

00:39:36.000 If you're under the age of 70, let's play it safe, and you don't have any pre-existing conditions, you'll likely be fine.

00:39:40.000 Wear a mask.

00:39:41.000 Although the CDC said don't wear masks.

00:39:43.000 Go back! 0.55

00:39:43.000 Ah! 0.55

00:39:44.000 Can we rewind?

00:39:44.000 Probably wear a mask!

00:39:47.000 Let's compare that to what we know.

00:39:48.000 Jobless claims.

00:39:50.000 17 million.

00:39:51.000 Over the past weeks.

00:39:51.000 That's insane.

00:39:51.000 We've hit that number, I believe, this week, finally.

00:39:54.000 Here's a percentage that we do know.

00:39:56.000 Small businesses, right, who say that their business will still be intact, still exist, if the crisis lasts six months, as that young man, Rachel Maddow, was suggesting.

00:40:04.000 Other than grocers, for some reason they're excluded, 33% say they'll be in business when it comes to hotels, 27% of personal services, 22% of restaurants and bars, 15% of other, and to be clear, there is a plus or minus variance of 4% because of untoured massage parlors.

00:40:22.000 I don't know why they were included.

00:40:23.000 It skews the sampling data.

00:40:25.000 Mostly Asians.

00:40:26.000 People are still visiting the Chinese.

00:40:27.000 It's fine.

00:40:28.000 But the Census Bureau wanted to make that visit.

00:40:31.000 That's by the way, people saying it will still be open.

00:40:34.000 33% of hotels will still be open.

00:40:36.000 Wow.

00:40:37.000 Not they'll close.

00:40:37.000 Yeah.

00:40:38.000 I want to be clear that I have this right.

00:40:39.000 Say their business will still exist after six months.

00:40:39.000 Yes.

00:40:41.000 Those are terrifying numbers.

00:40:43.000 This is important.

00:40:43.000 These aren't just hypothetical numbers.

00:40:45.000 These have real world impact, and I don't know why we are not taking into account when every other day of the year, you can tune into Vox, you can tune into CNN where they talk about food deserts, and they talk about poverty, they talk about unemployment and how that leads to mental illness, and all of the other auxiliary effects, right?

00:41:02.000 Severe unemployment leads to, whose phone is that?

00:41:05.000 Whose f***ing phone is that?

00:41:07.000 I don't know, it's probably Bill's.

00:41:09.000 You have your phone on?

00:41:12.000 We'll do it live!

00:41:13.000 Yes!

00:41:14.000 Was that Sting?

00:41:15.000 I don't know what that means to play us out.

00:41:15.000 Yes.

00:41:17.000 Molly Crew.

00:41:18.000 You've been in broadcasting for 30 years and you don't... Who's got the hook?

00:41:21.000 So, uh, severe unemployment.

00:41:23.000 Don't, let's not, we're not gonna edit it, this is live.

00:41:24.000 Yeah, no, let's go, let's do it.

00:41:25.000 Severe unemployment.

00:41:27.000 This is one of my Seth Meyers.

00:41:30.000 So let's be clear about this.

00:41:31.000 It's not a racial thing when they try to say it's about oppressed classes.

00:41:34.000 No, but severe unemployment, poverty, it leads to increased burglaries, suicides, homelessness, overall poor public health in the long run.

00:41:40.000 Those are bad.

00:41:41.000 People who are poor, more likely to have heart conditions, more likely to be obese, more likely to have diabetes, which means that you will have far less resistance to the actual contagion-like bug that we've been told is coming around the corner.

00:41:51.000 Yeah, and when economies crash, Stephen, we've got this throughout world history, when economies crash, people do really stupid things, right?

00:41:57.000 They allow people like Adolf Hitler, who years before was already put in jail because they rejected his ideas, to get out and come into power.

00:42:03.000 They allow people like Mussolini to come in and say, we're gonna restore Italy to the prominence that it once had, and say, well, alright, things are really bad, maybe this guy can do it.

00:42:10.000 They do really stupid things, so you don't take that for granted.

00:42:13.000 That's true.

00:42:14.000 Any thoughts on that, since you come from the country with all the dictators?

00:42:19.000 Yeah, hey, I'm gonna tell you, dictatorship, it's gonna lead clearly to having lower corona deaths.

00:42:25.000 Just look at my friends in China.

00:42:27.000 I'm just saying, the numbers speak for themselves.

00:42:30.000 And hey, you know we're good at math.

00:42:32.000 Nary a wet market to be found.

00:42:35.000 Here's something else.

00:42:35.000 I think you'll see a different tune being sung now.

00:42:38.000 Why?

00:42:38.000 Because this is what's so amazing to me.

00:42:40.000 I mean, and not ironic like the Alanis Morissette song where it's like, look, that's coincidental.

00:42:44.000 That's not ironic.

00:42:45.000 We get that you have a Canadian past because you're foreign, there's something exotic about you.

00:42:50.000 It's like the whole Weird Al chic look.

00:42:57.000 But it's not really ironic to rain on your wedding day.

00:43:00.000 That's an unfortunate coincidence.

00:43:01.000 This is actually It's actually ironic.

00:43:02.000 It's actually lucky.

00:43:03.000 Because of this pandemic right now and because of the fact that they have predicted these surges and they've tried to prepare for them, hospitals are now furloughing or laying off workers.

00:43:12.000 So this economy is directly affecting healthcare workers because there aren't enough jobs to go around. 0.59

00:43:17.000 And then this is another one that is to me, and I'm not taking any pleasure in this, what I'm saying is that when you just throw out hypothetical numbers and you tell everyone that they have to beat to the beat of your drum, they have to dance to the beat of March to the D, I'm very tired.

00:43:31.000 Here's another thing.

00:43:32.000 I read this article.

00:43:33.000 Take no joy in anyone being unemployed.

00:43:35.000 to the beat of your own. I was like, what am I saying? Peyote?

00:43:38.000 Video quest? What are we talking about?

00:43:40.000 Ayahuasca.

00:43:41.000 Here's another thing. I read this article. Take no joy in anyone being unemployed, unless

00:43:46.000 it's this next person. So journalism has been hit hard, and I use journalism in the loosest

00:43:52.000 sense of the word, so hard that Democratic senators and journalists are now demanding

00:43:56.000 There was an article at HuffPost, and you better save the local news.

00:44:01.000 First off, why?

00:44:02.000 Second, let's keep in mind, these people already receive the same kind of stimulus checks right now.

00:44:07.000 Just keep in mind, they receive the individual checks and the small business loans that are available.

00:44:11.000 In other words, that's not enough.

00:44:13.000 And I do think that it's ironic, considering that you told everybody else who said, maybe we should look at reopening the economy, that they were effectively Hitler reincarnated.

00:44:22.000 And now you're saying, hey, that the economy has affected you, you should be bailed out at the taxpayer expense.

00:44:27.000 No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:44:29.000 We're all in this together at this point.

00:44:31.000 Journalists included.

00:44:33.000 At least you should be, because your job is certainly not essential.

00:44:37.000 Schenectady Register slash Poughkeepsie Herald.

00:44:42.000 She emerged.

00:44:43.000 It was a merger.

00:44:43.000 I did.

00:44:45.000 She would come up with a new name.

00:44:46.000 It was a necessity.

00:44:47.000 They had to.

00:44:48.000 Well, I thought that the Democrats were against bailing out big corporations, and now they're trying to bail out these journalistic... No, no, no.

00:44:55.000 They're only against bailing out useful corporations.

00:44:58.000 Oh.

00:44:59.000 Useful to them, maybe, not to the rest of America.

00:45:02.000 I'm against bailing out any corporations.

00:45:04.000 How about that?

00:45:06.000 Unless the government stepped in and said, shut down your corporation.

00:45:08.000 Nobody Nobody pitching this corporation, well then fine.

00:45:11.000 Yeah, no, no, this is a totally different situation.

00:45:14.000 But they were saying the money should just go directly to the people and not through businesses that provide jobs to the people, unless it's this.

00:45:20.000 I want to save them now.

00:45:22.000 Not as it applies to the West Texas Times.

00:45:26.000 I'm running out of names here.

00:45:27.000 They need to merge with the Schenectady Register to have some power.

00:45:30.000 The Des Moines Morning News?

00:45:31.000 I mean, I can keep going, but they're only going to get worse.

00:45:33.000 The Salt Lake City Gazette.

00:45:34.000 Yes!

00:45:35.000 I love it.

00:45:36.000 Salt Lake City Gazette.

00:45:37.000 It's just, like, 19 wives in a room with a typewriter. 1.00

00:45:41.000 And one overworked husband.

00:45:43.000 But the synergy is amazing.

00:45:45.000 One just types it, and then the other wife goes, ding! 1.00

00:45:47.000 And she goes, thank you.

00:45:50.000 Ding!

00:45:50.000 Efficient, though.

00:45:51.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:45:51.000 I thought there was one per key, one per letter.

00:45:54.000 Wow.

00:45:55.000 One handles vowels, I guess.

00:45:57.000 It's like the New Deal. 0.85

00:45:58.000 It's just jobs everywhere.

00:45:59.000 This is a horrible segment.

00:46:02.000 It's just amazing to me that they want the economy to stay closed for thee, but not for me.

00:46:07.000 And by the way, this doesn't help healthcare workers. 0.97

00:46:09.000 It doesn't help healthcare workers, and this is one thing too, it doesn't help healthcare workers who are honestly at the front lines trying to do a good job for some other nurse to go out there and take an Instagram picture of the bags under her eyes and say, we're all at death's door.

00:46:23.000 When you have other healthcare workers saying, no, no, no, we don't want to waste resources.

00:46:26.000 We don't need 40,000 ventilators, someone who's not trying to politicize it, because that actually would be more inventory than we could take care of right now.

00:46:34.000 Unfortunately, everyone's afraid to speak out.

00:46:36.000 Why?

00:46:37.000 Because they'll tell you that you don't like Anyone!

00:46:39.000 That you want old people to die. 1.00

00:46:41.000 That's not true.

00:46:42.000 And this is just like the climate change issue that I wanted to come back to, and then I think we have Glenn Beck coming up after this.

00:46:48.000 You know, climate change, listen, it's not enough to say, hey, yeah, sure, the world is warming.

00:46:51.000 It's not enough to say, you know what, I think humans might have an impact.

00:46:53.000 It's not enough to say, hey, you know what, we might actually have a vested interest here in trying to find more renewable energy.

00:46:59.000 But if you say, You know what?

00:47:01.000 I just don't believe that the COYOTE Protocol, the Montreal Agreement, COYOTE Protocol slash Paris Accord, is going to fix the issue of climate change.

00:47:10.000 And we certainly shouldn't try and deal with climate change at the expense of human life or human beings who create industries that innovate, which is ultimately what will solve our energy problem in the long run.

00:47:20.000 All of a sudden, you're an apostate. 0.58

00:47:22.000 You're a pariah.

00:47:22.000 You have no business speaking even at the table.

00:47:26.000 It's the same thing that's happening here right now.

00:47:27.000 We're not saying that this is a hoax.

00:47:29.000 What we are saying, and I've been saying this all along, and I see a lot of conservatives now sort of walking it back, and they're saying, this is something we need to get ahead of.

00:47:36.000 Of course we need to be ahead of this, and I think we've done a pretty good job.

00:47:39.000 But we've always been saying, and I maintain this, I won't be shamed into panic, we need to, and people don't like saying this because there are lives at stake.

00:47:48.000 There are always lives at stake.

00:47:49.000 That being said, when you make maneuvers in war, there are lives at stake.

00:47:53.000 When you decide who goes to the lifeboats first, you still have to make a risk assessment call with lives at stake.

00:48:02.000 And in this case, when we know the ramifications of the kind of unemployment and crippling economy that Could be seen for generations to come.

00:48:10.000 There does need to be a balance between saving lives from a virus, none of the models have proven to be accurate, versus the livelihoods of everyone who will be alive, which is 99.999999.

00:48:19.000 I don't even have a calculator that goes that far.

00:48:23.000 I was too busy spelling boobs upside down.

00:48:25.000 So fun. 99.9999. I lost my train of thought. People who will still be around after this virus,

00:48:32.000 and what I think is most important is anyone out there and people who've been feeling this

00:48:35.000 for a long time, I want you to speak out about this. I want you to speak out with everyone that

00:48:38.000 you know in your personal lives. Any platform you have, just try and present it from a compassionate

00:48:44.000 point of view and with balance, and when these people like Rachel Maddow talk about Donald

00:48:48.000 Trump or Brian Stelter literally, say that Donald Trump has no empathy for the lives lost,

00:48:51.000 or they say, you know what, if you believe that you don't care about the country.

00:48:54.000 No, no, no, I'm talking about all of the people out there who are scraping for a job.

00:48:58.000 They are clawing and biting to try and preserve their livelihood.

00:49:01.000 Don't say that when I say we need to take their lives into account, their livelihoods, that I don't care about the country.

00:49:06.000 They are the country, and that's the point.

00:49:10.000 Okay, let's go to Glenn Beck after.

00:49:11.000 My knee is like...

00:49:13.000 I'm a little bit tired I'm a little bit tired

00:49:17.000 I'm a little bit tired I'm a little bit tired

00:49:21.000 Let's all try some Waffler Let's all try some Waffler

00:49:25.000 Let's all try some Waffler Because they are bad ass 1.00

00:49:29.000 Let's all try some Waffler Let's all try some Waffler

00:49:33.000 Because they are bad ass Let's all try some Waffler 1.00

00:49:37.000 Walther firearms.

00:49:39.000 Quality firearm engineering for over a century.

00:49:42.000 Sleek lines, butter-smooth triggers, and unparalleled reliability.

00:49:47.000 Walther created the first semi-automatic pistol in 1908, and they've made the best ever since.

00:49:52.000 So the next chance you have, demand loudly, and proudly, I'll try the Walther!

00:49:59.000 Let's all try some Walther!

00:50:03.000 Because they are bad!

00:50:07.000 I feel like I don't really have the hips like the dance You know, sometimes people move their hips.

00:50:21.000 You're like, oh my gosh.

00:50:23.000 It's like a bobblehead doll, but instead of the head, it's the hips.

00:50:26.000 But I'm pretty loose on the shoulders.

00:50:27.000 I mean, I got pretty good shoulder work.

00:50:29.000 Yeah, because I can dislocate them because of my connective tissue damage.

00:50:32.000 So it's fun.

00:50:33.000 Right.

00:50:34.000 At least you can use it.

00:50:34.000 At least I can use it.

00:50:36.000 Our next guest, you know him.

00:50:38.000 Of course, he's been on the show many times.

00:50:39.000 And I've known him for, gosh, probably going on a, is it a decade now?

00:50:43.000 Wow.

00:50:43.000 I have no idea.

00:50:44.000 I feel old.

00:50:45.000 But he's older because he has white hair.

00:50:47.000 Glenn Beck on the Twitter, and of course you know him, The Blaze.

00:50:50.000 He has his shows that are there, both his radio show and his television show.

00:50:53.000 His new book is Arguing with Socialists, which, I don't know why I don't have the book, because I didn't get the link for it until recently, so I don't have a physical copy.

00:51:01.000 Mr. Glenn Beck, how are you, sir?

00:51:03.000 Very good.

00:51:04.000 I can't believe we didn't deliver a copy to you.

00:51:07.000 Yeah, I know.

00:51:08.000 I didn't want anyone there to be fired, but I assume you'll handle business.

00:51:12.000 I don't know. I'm a little busy polishing my nipple rings.

00:51:20.000 Yes, yes.

00:51:22.000 Well, here's the thing, you were... Okay, so I have two things.

00:51:24.000 I want to go to your tattoos, and the Cuomo nipple rings, but before that, where's the book available, just to be clear?

00:51:33.000 Any place that is open.

00:51:34.000 Okay, that's right.

00:51:35.000 So if it's open, you can buy it.

00:51:37.000 It's at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, wherever.

00:51:40.000 Okay, good, good, good.

00:51:40.000 Yeah, by the way, there's an Amazon Barnes & Noble Café.

00:51:43.000 You see that recently?

00:51:44.000 It's Barnes & Noble Café right next to a Starbucks.

00:51:47.000 And the Barnes & Noble Café has definitively less books or magazines than café items.

00:51:53.000 Have you seen these recently, Glenn?

00:51:55.000 Yes, I have.

00:51:56.000 There's one in South Lake down here, and it's like 40,000 square feet, and most of it is just for coffee now.

00:52:05.000 Yes, exactly.

00:52:05.000 Right.

00:52:06.000 It's crazy.

00:52:07.000 And it's just as we proudly carry Starbucks.

00:52:09.000 I'm like, well, there's a Starbucks literally right next door.

00:52:13.000 I was here for the books.

00:52:14.000 And I thought, maybe I'll grab a coffee when I go buy a book, but there are no books!

00:52:17.000 It's just coffee.

00:52:19.000 And not good coffee, either.

00:52:21.000 So, okay.

00:52:22.000 I want to go back to your tech.

00:52:23.000 We'll go back to the book, but before that, nipple rings.

00:52:25.000 We were talking about this before we went on air.

00:52:26.000 You think that, Mr. Governor Cuomo, you think it's an actual nipple ring?

00:52:30.000 I think he might have had like a... I think it's... Yeah.

00:52:34.000 No, I think it's two, Steven.

00:52:36.000 I think he's got one here and one here, and they're big, they're nasty, and I don't want to think about them, honestly.

00:52:42.000 I mean, they may have started here, but I think they're actually down here now.

00:52:48.000 Yes, yeah.

00:52:49.000 And that was even more disturbing.

00:52:50.000 It's all the added weight.

00:52:52.000 Yeah, he's a stand-in devil for National Geographic specials.

00:52:55.000 They just put in Cuomo for us and just cast him up close and zoom out and you're like, Oh, Andrew!

00:53:01.000 Andrew.

00:53:02.000 I don't know.

00:53:03.000 And here's the thing, I wouldn't have so much of a problem with it if he didn't hide it.

00:53:08.000 Like if someone nipple rings Folsom Street Fair, let your freak flag fly, but you're trying to act like the kind of person who would be at a Barnes & Noble cafe, but you have the nipple rings.

00:53:18.000 It's like pick a lane.

00:53:20.000 Well, no, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:53:23.000 I don't want to see him dressed like one of the village people. 1.00

00:53:25.000 I don't want to see him shirtless in chaps and nipple rings doing the governor's work.

00:53:31.000 That is a gross mischaracterization.

00:53:33.000 He's trying to hide it.

00:53:34.000 That is a gross mischaracterization of what happens at the Folsom Street Fair.

00:53:37.000 It is a family friendly event.

00:53:40.000 How dare you, sir?

00:53:41.000 I go there, I have my kids for drag time, story time, whatever, all the time.

00:53:47.000 Right.

00:53:48.000 So, how are you saying he's hiding them?

00:53:51.000 Well, because, in other words, if he just lifted it, said, hey, look at my nipple ring, big deal, and moved on, but they're in a golf shirt, I think he just made the mistake, he made the mistake of wearing the wrong fabric golf shirt.

00:54:01.000 Like, if he'd have worn the traditional sort of Raycloth cotton, but he wore the peak cotton, so it's very sheer.

00:54:06.000 So, I don't think he intended that, and then, you know, he didn't answer.

00:54:09.000 He needs to answer for his nipple bar. 0.90

00:54:11.000 If he would have answered, then it would have been fine, but it still would have been creepy and I don't want to think about his nipple rings anymore.

00:54:17.000 Well, I'll be sure to bring it up later in the interview because it's a spite topic.

00:54:22.000 And then the other thing is a lot of people don't know you have a lot of tattoos.

00:54:25.000 Right, so no nipple rings, but you do have tattoos.

00:54:27.000 No, I have one.

00:54:29.000 What?

00:54:29.000 Well, you have the one on your calf, right?

00:54:30.000 Yeah, I have one.

00:54:31.000 Okay.

00:54:32.000 I thought there was more.

00:54:33.000 Yeah, around my ankle.

00:54:34.000 Okay.

00:54:34.000 No.

00:54:35.000 No.

00:54:35.000 No?

00:54:36.000 Not that you've ever seen.

00:54:37.000 Well, I remember you showing it because we were at Fox and I was kind of like, I guess sort of subbing.

00:54:42.000 Co-hosting, because you were answering questions with the audience, and so I was fielding questions, and one of them was about your tattoo.

00:54:48.000 And I had never known that you had a tattoo, and you showed it.

00:54:52.000 What is it on your calf ankle?

00:54:53.000 I mean, it's a pretty elaborate tattoo.

00:54:57.000 Okay, we can see it.

00:54:58.000 There we go.

00:54:59.000 Can you see that?

00:55:00.000 No, you're going to have to do some yoga.

00:55:02.000 I'm not as nimble as you are.

00:55:03.000 No, well, I know.

00:55:06.000 It's from an old Gaelic chalice.

00:55:12.000 So it's quite elaborate.

00:55:14.000 That's right.

00:55:15.000 And then it has my children's birthdays.

00:55:17.000 OK, that's why you were so offended when I made a joke about it.

00:55:19.000 I remember you said something about Gaelic.

00:55:21.000 And I said, what if it says, like, hey, this guy's Gaelic?

00:55:25.000 And you looked at me like you were very sad.

00:55:27.000 Like, is this something meant a lot to you?

00:55:31.000 And I was like, no, it's just a joke.

00:55:33.000 I don't know.

00:55:34.000 I shouldn't be at this network hosting.

00:55:37.000 So, yeah.

00:55:41.000 That's about it.

00:55:42.000 Okay, tell me about your book, Arguing with Socialists.

00:55:45.000 I remember Arguing with Idiots because I had started my career, that was in 2009, and I really loved that book.

00:55:51.000 I remember that book was kind of what put me on the path to learning more, and I use it as a reference in my Detroit video, or I use the references from your book.

00:56:00.000 That one specifically addressed the idea of hybrid cars and how they were actually losing manufacturers' money

00:56:06.000 on each one sold.

00:56:07.000 Even the Prius, I believe, up until 2009, I don't know what it is right now.

00:56:10.000 So it was a really, I mean, I know a lot of people know you for your style and you're more of an op-ed person,

00:56:16.000 but there was some information there that I think really would have served people well.

00:56:21.000 So this here, this is similar because, I mean, arguing with idiots, obviously different.

00:56:26.000 Arguing with socialists, sounds redundant.

00:56:29.000 Right?

00:56:32.000 So it's really not different.

00:56:33.000 It's really not different.

00:56:34.000 Just updated idiots to socialists.

00:56:37.000 Yes.

00:56:38.000 Stephen, this is the reason why what you just said is what I've heard about that book for 10 years.

00:56:44.000 It was really effective for people that were your age at the time, especially.

00:56:49.000 Yeah.

00:56:50.000 Because it has, you know, 100 page of really fine print footnotes.

00:56:56.000 Yes.

00:56:56.000 At the end.

00:56:57.000 So you don't ever have to quote me.

00:56:58.000 You know, you have all of the information there.

00:57:00.000 Right.

00:57:01.000 And it's also, I mean, because I'm riddled with ADD, it's also full of charts and graphs and, you know, comics and everything else.

00:57:08.000 Right.

00:57:09.000 And we tried to look for the best arguments against capitalism.

00:57:17.000 And so there's no strawman in here.

00:57:20.000 It's not the stereotypical conservative, just Throwing, you know, lame complaints about capitalism and then just rah-rah capitalism.

00:57:29.000 If you want to live in communist China, why don't you get the hell out? 0.95

00:57:32.000 That kind of thing.

00:57:35.000 Exactly right.

00:57:35.000 Yes.

00:57:36.000 Exactly right.

00:57:37.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:57:37.000 So we tried to take and really look, because there's bad things about the free market.

00:57:41.000 Sure.

00:57:42.000 And there's bad things about socialism.

00:57:45.000 A lot more over here.

00:57:47.000 But, you know, let's look at what the real arguments are.

00:57:51.000 And if you have an open mind at all, You want to serve people the best way you can, so which one works, which one doesn't?

00:58:00.000 And I appreciate the self-awareness there that you say we don't have to quote you.

00:58:03.000 It doesn't mean that your arguments are illegitimate at all, but I know, for example, that's always why we provide sources here that are usually the New York Times, and we get them from PubMed, because I know if someone says, well, Steven Crowder, I go, don't list me as a source, because I'm an asshole!

00:58:15.000 And no one will listen to you, so... Not that you are, but that's why... But you know that people will see it as biased, so you list your original references, which is what really helped me with arguing with idiots.

00:58:25.000 Yeah, I remember using them quite a bit, then going online and searching it.

00:58:30.000 Yeah, you're a complete idiot if you quote me or you quote you, because the media has done a good job, and quite honestly, I have been very effective at smearing myself as well.

00:58:43.000 The media has done a great job on making us losers, or people you can't trust, or just hacks that don't know what they're talking about.

00:58:54.000 If you believe we do, well good, get the book, and we've taken all of the facts from the New York Times.

00:59:00.000 Anytime I found something from the Heritage Foundation, I went back to the researchers and said, go find it from a source that the left appreciates.

00:59:11.000 Something that the left will say, okay, well, all right, it's the New York Times.

00:59:15.000 You're right.

00:59:15.000 And they came back, they're like, not Anna Kasparian!

00:59:18.000 Go back to the think tank!

00:59:19.000 Bring me something useful!

00:59:21.000 This is important, though, because we've done this, you know, when we prepare for Change My Mind, I sit down with a brilliant researcher, Reg, who's literally more than a mental level IQ and squats like 700 pounds.

00:59:31.000 He's the scariest person on earth.

00:59:34.000 But we always try and prepare for, because we have to, right?

00:59:37.000 We're going to go out, and it's a free-for-all.

00:59:38.000 It's four hours of anyone, including professors.

00:59:41.000 And with socialism, it's very common to say, well, there are socialist elements.

00:59:44.000 And so we've always focused not so much on totalitarian Marxism, but really sort of the Norwegian socialist model.

00:59:51.000 I think you refer to it in your book as the Swedish-style socialism, because that's what's often It's the socialism du jour, right?

00:59:57.000 They used to point to Canada, when I lived in Canada, and they said, well, that doesn't work.

01:00:00.000 They used to point to France, or maybe Belgium, and they'd go, well, that doesn't work.

01:00:03.000 So now they point to Sweden.

01:00:04.000 Can you tell me how you define that, or why it's something that you address in the book?

01:00:11.000 Yeah, so Sweden is, A, it's not a socialist country.

01:00:14.000 It is more free on its industry than we are.

01:00:17.000 It has fewer regulations.

01:00:20.000 Out of the Norwegian countries, I think Three of them have lower taxes than we do.

01:00:29.000 It is not a socialist system.

01:00:32.000 It used to be, and then it failed around the time Abba started to fail.

01:00:38.000 Right.

01:00:38.000 And they got away from Abba, and they got away from socialism.

01:00:41.000 And then they brought back Pierce Brosnan covering Abba, and they were like, shut up!

01:00:46.000 Why do you keep furring at the interfaces?

01:00:52.000 So they got rid of that because they couldn't afford it anymore.

01:00:55.000 It wasn't working.

01:00:56.000 The taxes were getting way too high and it was, everything was collapsing.

01:01:00.000 So they knew they had to get out of the socialist game and they become very, very free market.

01:01:07.000 Right.

01:01:07.000 I mean, a socialist country doesn't come up with Ikea where you can buy furniture you have to put together and have Swedish meatballs.

01:01:14.000 Right.

01:01:14.000 And no return policy whatsoever.

01:01:18.000 It's like, well, I brought it home and it was broken.

01:01:20.000 You broke it.

01:01:20.000 You brought it.

01:01:21.000 I didn't break it.

01:01:22.000 It arrived broken.

01:01:24.000 They have no return policy at all.

01:01:26.000 If you have something shipped from Ikea, you are on your own.

01:01:29.000 And something else, too.

01:01:30.000 Yeah, go ahead.

01:01:33.000 No, I was just going to say mostly, I mean, I think they break because it's It's just glued sawdust, isn't it?

01:01:38.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:01:40.000 They just take sawdust, put glue, and just hold it together?

01:01:42.000 Right, yeah, it really is pretty bad.

01:01:44.000 But I outfitted my entire house with IKEA when we first got married, and then I sat... That's every wedding, too.

01:01:49.000 People joked we broke the bed, my wife and I, and they were like, oh, yeah, nearly wedged.

01:01:53.000 I'm like, no, no, we just literally laid down, and it snapped right down the middle.

01:01:58.000 I'm like, I wish there was some story.

01:02:00.000 It's just bad Swedish design, OK? 0.99

01:02:03.000 There's nothing sultry.

01:02:05.000 Yeah, it's true.

01:02:06.000 True story.

01:02:07.000 People can use the time machine and go back on my Twitter.

01:02:10.000 So let me ask you this, too.

01:02:11.000 Another term we were just talking about in the morning show this week, the eco-socialism, is something that's also kind of a new buzz phrase.

01:02:16.000 They just want to rebrand.

01:02:17.000 So you have democratic socialism, Swedish-style socialism.

01:02:20.000 Eco-socialism is another point that I think, if I'm not mistaken, you address in your book.

01:02:24.000 And we hear that from AOC a lot.

01:02:25.000 Yeah.

01:02:27.000 In the first chapter, I define the words.

01:02:31.000 And I think the most important thing is that Socialism cannot escape its history.

01:02:38.000 And people say, oh no, well those are communist countries.

01:02:41.000 Actually, communism has never been done before.

01:02:44.000 Communism is not a step that anyone has completed.

01:02:48.000 In fact, Soviet Union was the, what, united or union of socialist Soviet states.

01:02:56.000 Right.

01:02:57.000 And so it's a Soviet Cuba is a socialist, not communist.

01:03:05.000 Communism is once there is no gun behind it.

01:03:08.000 Once everybody's in that utopia where we all just put our money down and we're all working together and everybody owns everything.

01:03:16.000 It's never gotten there.

01:03:17.000 It never gets past the socialist part.

01:03:20.000 So the important thing to remember is that socialism is the part with the guns.

01:03:26.000 If it's not, if you're looking at someplace like Sweden, they would have had to go to guns if they weren't Swedish. 0.96

01:03:33.000 They would have had to go to guns.

01:03:34.000 Instead, they just Well, I think it's also important to bring up, like you said, the USSR. 0.84

01:03:38.000 I mean, a big part of that was Sandals Resorts didn't want to share their profits.

01:03:43.000 Nobody will ever admit that, but that's the important thing.

01:03:46.000 Well, I think it's also important to bring up, like you said, the USSR.

01:03:49.000 I mean, a big part of that was Sandals Resorts didn't want to share their profits.

01:03:53.000 We have Bernie coming in here on a honeymoon and listen, we eat what we kill. 1.00

01:04:00.000 It happened the same thing in Canada, to a lesser extent, where I lived there under a universal healthcare system, a socialized healthcare system in Quebec.

01:04:08.000 And apparently Quebec is, when I did the video back in 2009, Canadian healthcare, people said, oh, you're biased.

01:04:14.000 You just picked the worst hospitals in Canada.

01:04:17.000 I said, the Charlemagne Hospital, that's where I went.

01:04:20.000 That's literally down the block from where I was.

01:04:22.000 I went to all the hospitals.

01:04:23.000 That I went to in my municipality, there was no privatized health care at all.

01:04:29.000 It was illegal until there was a Supreme Court case in 2005, Chauvi v. Quebec, and I've talked about this quite a bit, where they said it's a violation of human rights to force people into these waiting lines, and if they want to pay for care, and they are at death's door, they have the right to.

01:04:42.000 That didn't exist when I was there, so my mother was looking at like, Eleven or fourteen months for an MRI.

01:04:48.000 To see a dermatologist was nine months for me.

01:04:50.000 I mean, it was incredibly long.

01:04:53.000 And I lived under that.

01:04:54.000 And I think a lot of times people take the most severe example, if it's Maoist China, and I go, hold on a second, you don't have to.

01:04:59.000 I think to Americans, understanding the reality of socialism lite would be scary enough.

01:05:08.000 I think what you don't hear is, for instance, right now under COVID, You don't hear the private sector begging the British government to please let us make masks.

01:05:22.000 Let us help you with the vaccine.

01:05:24.000 Please let us do this.

01:05:27.000 Under the NIH in Great Britain, they can't without a government exception.

01:05:31.000 And the government doesn't want to make an exception.

01:05:33.000 That's insanity.

01:05:37.000 love the socialist system, watch where the vaccine, watch where the medicines

01:05:42.000 come from, because they're not going to be coming from Venezuela, they're not

01:05:47.000 going to be coming most likely from Canada, they're going to be coming from a

01:05:50.000 free market. Yeah. And we are, we are not even the most free.

01:05:56.000 Sweden, when it comes to business, Sweden is more free than we are.

01:06:01.000 Yeah, I think a lot of people don't know that.

01:06:02.000 Again, from being a Canadian, I remember when Barack Obama was president, Canada, for the first time ever, was higher on the Economic Freedom Index than the United States.

01:06:09.000 And they avoided the housing bubble because their Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, just said, wait, give loans to people who can't pay it back because racism or something?

01:06:16.000 We're not going to do that.

01:06:17.000 It's only 25% down.

01:06:19.000 That's a bad idea.

01:06:20.000 Yeah, and they avoided it.

01:06:22.000 This is the one thing, too.

01:06:23.000 Usually when socialist countries avoid catastrophes that we face here, it's because they're more conservative on that specific issue.

01:06:29.000 And speaking of that, I want to go to sort of the COVID topic.

01:06:32.000 Obviously, if people look at the death rates per capita, you have to remove like Luxembourg or I don't know, a couple of small islands, but large sized countries, the top four, France, Italy, Spain, Belgium.

01:06:43.000 Again, three years ago, these were the countries that were being praised for their socialized healthcare system.

01:06:47.000 We would have to multiply our death rate per capita by four times to be close to what they have.

01:06:53.000 Why aren't people talking about this?

01:06:55.000 To me, this is a great opportunity to look at the perils of socialized healthcare versus a free enterprise system.

01:07:01.000 I have to tell you, Steven, now is the best time to talk about not only socialized medicine, but also the free market.

01:07:07.000 Deutsche Bank just came out over the weekend and said there is no such thing as the free market anymore.

01:07:12.000 Wait, how did you pronounce that?

01:07:13.000 How did you pronounce that?

01:07:14.000 Deutsche?

01:07:14.000 Deutsche Bank.

01:07:14.000 You do it all properly.

01:07:15.000 That's what I do with my wife when we watch The New Pope. 0.99

01:07:17.000 I go, I cannot believe.

01:07:19.000 Viola! 1.00

01:07:20.000 She goes, who is?

01:07:20.000 Oh, don't talk about Viola.

01:07:22.000 He's my guy, that Viola.

01:07:24.000 So Deutsche Bank.

01:07:25.000 Got it.

01:07:25.000 Now I feel like an ass.

01:07:28.000 Well, how do you say Deutsche Bank?

01:07:29.000 How do you say it?

01:07:30.000 I say Dutch.

01:07:31.000 Yeah.

01:07:33.000 And I know it's wrong, and I'm okay with it.

01:07:37.000 So anyway, the German bank just came out this weekend and said that there is no such thing as a free market because of what the Fed has done.

01:07:48.000 What the Fed has done is they're now the largest landowner in the world.

01:07:54.000 They own all of our debt.

01:07:57.000 They're the biggest treasury financiers now.

01:08:01.000 They own more of our treasury bonds than anybody else.

01:08:05.000 They are going to end up owning everything in the end.

01:08:09.000 The market is not free anymore because there is no bottom.

01:08:13.000 There's no real pricing on anything except for the average person.

01:08:17.000 What they've done is they are using modern monetary theory, which is a socialist dream.

01:08:25.000 Chapter 6 is a chapter that we almost didn't put in because I thought, You know, this is kind of far out there because it would really take a real disruption to get there.

01:08:37.000 But I tied it into technology and I said, if you get a jobless problem and technology, along with modern monetary theory, you are a 1984-style state, a George Orwell state.

01:08:49.000 Right.

01:08:53.000 Yeah.

01:08:54.000 Oh, that sounds brilliant.

01:08:55.000 are talking about. Modern monetary theory is this new idea that you don't have to

01:09:00.000 have the money or even taxes to pay for anything, just print the money.

01:09:04.000 Yeah. Oh that sounds brilliant. Along with the technology that will get in bed

01:09:10.000 with the government to monitor people, which we are doing now, along with

01:09:15.000 joblessness, you have a takeover of the capitalist free system. We've just

01:09:23.000 We're experiencing it right now.

01:09:24.000 They're not even asking for votes on things in Congress anymore.

01:09:29.000 They're going to an empty room.

01:09:31.000 Those opposed?

01:09:32.000 The ayes have it. 0.95

01:09:34.000 Nobody's in Congress.

01:09:35.000 How are they voting on these bills?

01:09:38.000 It is a scary thought.

01:09:39.000 I don't usually reference Orwell much.

01:09:41.000 You know why?

01:09:41.000 Because the more I read about him, I was like, I don't like him.

01:09:43.000 He was a socialist who then kind of turned, and then he was like, oh, the Catalina.

01:09:47.000 I'm like, what about Catalina?

01:09:48.000 Are you talking about the place that was like a socialist anarcho-socialist syndicism for like three years, and then they immediately were wiped out?

01:09:53.000 Don't like it.

01:09:54.000 Think you're full of it.

01:09:55.000 Not you, Orwell.

01:09:56.000 But let me ask you this.

01:09:58.000 You know a lot about the Fed, and you know a lot more about, like, you focused on this quite a bit.

01:10:03.000 Would it be justifiable at this point to say, okay, China, we're not paying you back until you sort this out?

01:10:08.000 Is that even feasible?

01:10:12.000 Or we're going to pay you less.

01:10:14.000 Yeah, but you know what?

01:10:16.000 They're little.

01:10:19.000 In physical stature, not in population.

01:10:21.000 Oh, they don't have to build bombs.

01:10:22.000 They could drop Chinese people from the sky and win. 1.00

01:10:25.000 Right, that's true.

01:10:26.000 And the fact is, when you look at how much the government cares about their citizens, they would be the ones doing that.

01:10:30.000 That's the unfortunate thing.

01:10:32.000 I want to be really clear.

01:10:32.000 They absolutely would.

01:10:33.000 I'm pro-Chinese people having rights, so I'm anti-Chinese government. 0.90

01:10:37.000 No, but go ahead.

01:10:39.000 Exactly right.

01:10:40.000 Exactly right.

01:10:40.000 And I will tell you, the strategy that China had to beat Russia in a war was take a million troops, march them across the border, and surrender.

01:10:52.000 Next day, a million troops, surrender.

01:10:54.000 Next day, a million troops.

01:10:55.000 By day three, They've been overwhelmed just by people.

01:11:00.000 And then they pull out the shivs that they've been hiding in their lower intestines. 1.00

01:11:04.000 Surprise!

01:11:06.000 I'll be a brilliant Trojan horse.

01:11:10.000 I think that they are... I think this has been...

01:11:14.000 As close to an active war that anyone else has ever perpetrated on other countries in the world.

01:11:23.000 I mean, they have killed more people than we lost in World War I, lost more people than the Vietnam War. 0.89

01:11:33.000 I don't know.

01:11:33.000 I think it sounds like an act of war.

01:11:37.000 You've destroyed our economy.

01:11:38.000 Yeah.

01:11:39.000 Well, we've destroyed our economy with their help, to be fair.

01:11:41.000 But I think it would be different if they said, like, our bad, no more wet markets.

01:11:46.000 But instead, they're like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

01:11:48.000 And they blame it on us.

01:11:49.000 If they took some responsibility, nothing is unforgivable.

01:11:52.000 But these practices, when we talk about the wet markets have been reopened.

01:11:55.000 Sorry, go ahead.

01:11:57.000 Stephen, they're also, they're also wildly irresponsible, not just with the wet market, but what they're, all of the things that they denied, all of the information they withheld, and now they're going to countries like France, and France send them a bunch of PPEs and masks and everything else.

01:12:15.000 Now France needs some.

01:12:18.000 China is not only not returning those masks, they are selling them the masks and saying you can only buy them if you take our 5G.

01:12:27.000 That's insane.

01:12:29.000 That's a hostile actor.

01:12:31.000 It's like the IKEA return policy of global trade.

01:12:34.000 It is all assholery that is unacceptable, and I have a broken bed frame to prove it.

01:12:40.000 I don't know how the Swedes tie into all of this, but sooner or later, I want some Swede to answer for IKEA. 0.99

01:12:47.000 Let me ask you this.

01:12:48.000 Because I know a lot of people may not like, obviously, you were not a big Trump guy in the primaries.

01:12:52.000 Neither was I. But at this point, when we're looking at Biden and you're looking at Donald Trump,

01:12:56.000 how would you rate how the president has handled this and what you think his chances are going into

01:13:02.000 2020 compared to Biden? Biden is, I can't believe that Biden is actually going to be the guy.

01:13:13.000 There's no way he's actually the guy.

01:13:15.000 I think it's Governor Nipple Ring.

01:13:17.000 There's no way that... Biden doesn't know where he is.

01:13:23.000 He can't be president.

01:13:25.000 I think it's one of those things when he actually gets to the convention, everybody will be like, OK, come on, guys.

01:13:30.000 I mean, he was a placeholder, right?

01:13:33.000 There's somebody else.

01:13:34.000 So I don't think he'll be the guy.

01:13:37.000 If he is, he loses.

01:13:39.000 Donald Trump, I think, I wasn't a fan of his, but I've grown to be a fan of his.

01:13:44.000 And then on top of it, the media has made me even more of a fan of his.

01:13:48.000 Right.

01:13:49.000 Because they've been so grossly unfair and just really sick what they're doing now.

01:13:55.000 I think he's done a really good job.

01:13:57.000 I like the fact that he has pushed all of the power back to the states, that he hasn't taken any of the opportunity to nationalize anything.

01:14:09.000 I don't like the spending, but I also don't like shutting down the economy.

01:14:13.000 constitutional to give money back to people you've taken it from?

01:14:18.000 As people who are both against the bailouts and the big stimulus bill,

01:14:21.000 when we talk about, you know, 2009, where we started to know each other,

01:14:23.000 that is very different from the government stepping in and saying,

01:14:26.000 shut down your business. Hey, everybody else, do not go to that business or a church,

01:14:31.000 or we will fine you. You prohibit people from making a living. Restitution there

01:14:35.000 is not the same as simply paying out businesses that were going to go bankrupt anyway.

01:14:39.000 Exactly right.

01:14:39.000 And I think you need to understand that's never been incongruent with a conservative worldview

01:14:43.000 at all. No, the government is the government is the responsible player

01:14:50.000 on the failure of all of these businesses that will fail.

01:14:54.000 All of the unemployment that we had, over three and a half percent, is because of the federal government and their action.

01:15:01.000 Right.

01:15:02.000 And when they take away your right to be, you know, even in some cases, stupid.

01:15:07.000 You know, I want to be in New York City and I'm going to have my hot dog stand right there in front of the hospital.

01:15:13.000 If they take away your right to do it, then they owe you the money that you could have earned.

01:15:18.000 Absolutely.

01:15:19.000 It would be like if Bernanke took a steaming dump at Cracker Barrel.

01:15:22.000 That is constitutional.

01:15:23.000 If Bernanke took a steaming dump right in the middle of a Cracker Barrel table, right in the middle of the general store, and then walked away laughing.

01:15:30.000 Like, no, no, no, Bernanke, you gotta pay for this.

01:15:32.000 You're the one who took the giant steaming crap right here.

01:15:35.000 This wasn't us.

01:15:36.000 No one's coming here because of your...

01:15:39.000 No, my knick-knacks are dirty.

01:15:41.000 Where do I put the biscuits?

01:15:42.000 I don't know if that's an analogy that drives it home, but I tried.

01:15:46.000 I think that, I think that, I don't think you can say anything else.

01:15:51.000 I tell you what, I can say this because we're already 25 minutes in.

01:15:54.000 The book is Arguing with Socialists.

01:15:56.000 It's available wherever books are sold.

01:15:57.000 Of course, Amazon.

01:15:59.000 If you have a Barnes & Noble cafe that happens to be open, go there, wear a mask, show... Ikea?

01:16:06.000 Oh, God.

01:16:07.000 Who knows?

01:16:07.000 Oh, God.

01:16:08.000 No, no, no.

01:16:09.000 Did you translate this to Swedish?

01:16:10.000 You have to put it together yourself.

01:16:12.000 No, no.

01:16:13.000 Yes, exactly.

01:16:14.000 Just kidding.

01:16:15.000 It just comes with a pen and cliff notes.

01:16:17.000 It's like, see if you can reconstitute this.

01:16:20.000 All right.

01:16:20.000 Well, listen, Glenn, I know you're busy.

01:16:22.000 We are busy.

01:16:22.000 I appreciate it.

01:16:23.000 And I am going to, once you send this book, I am going to read it.

01:16:27.000 I'm looking forward to it.

01:16:28.000 I will send it to you.

01:16:29.000 Absolutely.

01:16:29.000 Thank you, Glenn.

01:16:30.000 All right.

01:16:30.000 We have to go, everybody.

01:16:31.000 We will see you tomorrow morning.

01:16:33.000 Good morning, Mug Club.
