In this episode, the boys play a game where you have to guess the name of an Arnold Schwarzenegger character and try to figure out if it's a hedge fund manager or a bear. Featuring special guest Joe McCann.
00:00:10.000Tell for those the uninitiated, tell them what this game is and the rules.
00:00:14.000All right, so I'm going to bring up a lower third with a name on it, and y'all have to guess if this name is a hedge fund manager or an Arnold Schwarzenegger character.
00:05:02.000I'm going to say, I'm going to say hedge fund manager just because I feel like, unless it is an early movie, he was very adamant about not having Austrian-sounding names.
00:10:46.000It's like whenever Arnold, like, he has to be a badass, but they have to make it in so many cases believable where he's like, like, he was never able to be the unwilling hero.
00:13:18.000Look, I get an idea, but I get that you feel good.
00:13:20.000You've got some momentum that you got to leg up, but I think we have to do the right thing and acknowledge that secrets are not allowed in the studio, and Gerald deserves this.
00:13:27.000I will say secrets are not allowed in the studio.
00:13:30.000And if we're going to follow the rules, we have to follow the rules as they were set before we play games such as Hedge Fund Manager or Arnold Swiss area character.
00:15:04.000And you have to understand, it was a mistake, but at the time, I thought it was funny, just like anyone would if you saw Pablo Francisco do it for the first time.
00:15:10.000So I was like, oh, this guy's pretty funny.
00:15:50.000I feel like it's a zag because no one would expect Arnold to be playing a Hispanic, but I'm really hoping that we see him in a Sanchez mustache.
00:15:57.000So I'll say Arnold just because I'm hoping to put a tan.
00:17:36.000She went on her stream and basically said that if it goes to trial and they go through Discovery and they do all this stuff, it's going to cost about $5 million.
00:17:42.000They said they don't have that, which is strange.
00:17:46.000I guess you just don't want to spend the money.
00:20:11.000If she is right, and if all those pictures that were sent directly from the Macron family and attorneys of Bridget, you know, as a child, of Bridget at her wedding with her first husband, who Candace said didn't exist, of Bridget with her brother, who Candace said she actually was in real life.
00:20:26.000If the dozens of pictures and the newspaper clippings and the documents, if they're all forged and they're all fake, then I hope Candace wins and I hope she takes them for everything they're worth.
00:20:37.000And I don't like the idea of someone silencing somebody just for expressing an opinion.
00:20:42.000When you do a multi-part series making definitive factual claims and double down on it, they're not going to stop if they're telling the truth, the Macron's.
00:20:55.000But Candace would have had to know that going into this.
00:20:59.000When she said, I will stake my reputation on this a long time ago.
00:21:03.000Well, you knew that this could be a lawsuit.
00:21:05.000So here's my prediction: either if I had to predict it goes through and she probably loses, but the damages would be something that you can't really necessarily recoup.
00:21:32.000Basically, fighting a lawsuit against royalty, and they have a never-ending supply of funds or the lawyer to convince the judge would go, well, didn't you raise a bunch of money in your campaign, your campaign?
00:21:45.000And aren't you the self-proclaimed most-watched show, whatever?
00:22:19.000Gosh, I don't know, since 2014, 2015, and that retainer.
00:22:24.000And then we've only added more, like it's one of our biggest line items here because we know it's unfortunately the cost of Doing business in this realm of work.
00:22:34.000If someone doesn't have that and hasn't prepared for that, I would suggest that maybe it's disingenuous.
00:22:40.000Like, you know, that's going to be part and parcel of being this.
00:22:44.000So if she doesn't have a lawyer already on retainer, that doesn't seem like she's serious about this.
00:22:57.000It's the cry poor right before it, because that's dishonest.
00:23:01.000Just be honest about what you want people to do.
00:23:03.000If I came forward and said, hey, guys, we want you to go and buy this shirt to help us fund XYZ, Mud Club Undercover, or The Election Night, or our fight against YouTube, or whatever it may be, fine.
00:23:14.000But I'm like, hey, guys, we don't really have that much money.
00:23:17.000And all of a sudden, like, good on Milk Bar for bringing that out.
00:25:33.000And look, I mean, when the FBI, when the mayor of Nashville said they were going to be looking into a lawsuit and the FBI would be investigating us, it's just a different approach.
00:26:39.000If you go to Tax Network USA and you're having tax problems, they will tell you to escape the U.S. and go to your $20 million mansion in England.
00:26:46.000And don't say someone who's looking like a woman-ish has a penis.
00:26:51.000I can't say looks like a woman because she does look very, you know.
00:27:23.000That would have been, if your cause, and I really am trying to wrap my head around this, because either like Candace has like some like information that we all don't have and she's playing 8D chess and she's going to come out on top of this or there's several thousand holes in the case that you know any one of which you could just poke and go okay that's the case but if you're trying to make the point like she's kind of claimed like we don't need this kind of debauchery in government we don't need this kind of okay fine sure you could have made that claim with the age gap and the fact that he was a student at the time and all of that that would have been salacious enough she has talked no i know but
00:27:54.000On top of that, I mean, yes, it's worse, but what is the, is it worse to be trans or a pedophile?
00:28:01.000Because this is the thing, Candace, and look, there are people, and we've talked about this quite a bit, there are people in here who are not in the content business, they're in the click business.
00:28:09.000And so for her, it's, wait, something's popular, I need to one-up it for a click.
00:28:13.000So for example, the Nashville Manifesto, and we showed it to you where there were plans, where it was these Christians, these crackers, these people who I want to kill, right?
00:28:19.000We're going, okay, and this was withheld from you.
00:28:56.000According to the officials of the city, according to the documents that we had, according to the police, according to the FBI, everyone who had a scan at those documents, there was no evidence of it whatsoever.
00:29:09.000But it doesn't matter to her because she goes, oh, wait, this is getting clicks, this actual content, which cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to produce just that one piece of content and research and making sure that we crossed our T's, dotted our I's.
00:29:36.000It's just like a comedian who works really, really hard and crafts a really good bit and then sees it get ripped off by someone who's already on television.
00:31:19.000And if they were, it was people like Nick DiPaolo who you didn't hear a whole lot about.
00:31:25.000everything that we know, including the people at, what was it, the Tennessee Star, so so so i will say what is similar is they they called george bush a nazi we went through that george hw bush a nazi ronald regan a nazi nixon a nazi i mean you can actually find you know posters and albums with them and a swastika on them and now they'll tell you like well these were just people with whom we had uh fundamental differences uh but we were worthy adversaries.
00:31:46.000But it's very different because Donald Trump is a fascist.
00:31:48.000It's like, no, no, no, you, you guys accused all these people of war crimes.
00:31:53.000You guys accused all these people of being Nazis.
00:31:57.000The shifting dynamic, I will say, is the default position was always liberal.
00:32:01.000And I talked about this quite a bit for millennials.
00:32:03.000Everything you watched, everything you listened to, every TV show, every movie, every band that you listened to by design, and of course, if you went to public school, if you went to college, told you to be a liberal by default.
00:32:14.000You would have had to be really proactive in being a conservative to be an American raised in public schools, go to college and listen to any mainstream bands or television.
00:32:22.000That's different now because of what was referred to as new media or social media, online media, because you can hear many voices for the same reason that you see top 40 is never going to have the same amount of play and reach that it used to because people are so fractured.
00:32:36.000They all have kind of their niche, just like Johnny Carson used to get, what, 25, 30 million people watching some nights.
00:32:41.000And now these late night hosts are lucky to get 2 million.
00:32:46.000And so you see, I would say, more offshoots like a libertarian, of like, you know, the left is still completely socialist, I would say.
00:32:53.000And I will say this, the big change is that the left has gone very, very, very far left, where it's pretty much like you're not going to have a Clinton Gingrich working together on some kind of a budget.
00:33:03.000It's just anything Trump says bad, anything Trump says is evil.
00:33:08.000And I will say they've gotten a lot more aggressive.
00:33:10.000And I think a big reason for that is because they've been losing their grip of control.
00:33:16.000To sort of encapsulate it, you never would have seen CNN, you know, falsifying, changing the color palette of a Joe Rogan selfie video and saying that he's eating horsepace because there would have been no one who had the kind of impact that Joe Rogan did, right?
00:33:31.000It was just like CNN would be like, why are you even talking about some blogger?
00:34:14.000So I think just access to information and also what is normal in politics, especially when you're talking about the polar, like the opposites in these parties.
00:34:23.000Like there is no normal when it comes to the issue of abortion.
00:34:25.000It's just Republicans kind of been getting screwed on this issue for a long time.
00:34:42.000There's nothing normal about just going, oh yeah, yeah, that's totally fine.
00:34:45.000I think it's fine for us to be in a little bit, like I would rather be in a phase where we are at a little bit more aware, a little bit more at odds, so that we can kind of work out what we really want.
00:34:57.000I don't want to just continue to go down this road of, wait a minute, 30 years have gone by and look how far we are from the ideal that we started with.
00:35:05.000I would also say there's less, funny enough, you talk about how polarized it is.
00:35:08.000I would say there's less stigma being a conservative.
00:35:10.000I mean, in the early 2000s, if you just said like, well, actually, I don't say, I'm actually glad that George Bush won over Al Gore.
00:35:17.000You know, for as flawed as he was as a president, people are like, oh, what, what?
00:35:20.000If you were under the age of 30, no one could believe that that was the case.
00:35:24.000Whereas I think now they've accused so many people of being Nazis, where you have, I see young men that are just like, yeah, my God, screw you, because they don't care anymore.
00:35:33.000One thing I will say, I talked about this with Razor Fist.
00:35:37.000At least on YouTube in 2008, 2009, liberals there, because they were also alternative media.
00:35:44.000If you were to have a debate with some mainstream sort of broadcasters and new media, they would present some pretty good arguments, right?
00:35:51.000They could kind of tie you in some pretzels.
00:35:54.000I don't think they really stand the test of time.
00:35:56.000But now the left has, I mean, for example, on CNN, Why wouldn't they have?
00:36:12.000Their belief is completely shut out this voice because they've discounted us as Nazis.
00:36:18.000And so they're very insulated and they really aren't able to argue their points the same way that they were in the early 2000s.
00:36:25.000Because at least then they could say, well, George Bush is president, so we're the opposition party.
00:36:29.000They have been in control of the culture and media and entertainment for so long that they definitely have become soft.
00:36:36.000And I'm often very shocked as to how weak the arguments are coming from people who you would expect to be more formidable than you're seeing.
00:36:45.000I also think that with the left going more far left, I think that a lot of people that would normally vote left or vote Democrat are okay with saying and doing the opposite of what the left is doing.
00:36:58.000Like, for instance, I have a lot of friends that are either military veterans or comedians, and they're on the left, but they voted for Trump.
00:37:06.000Or they didn't vote for Trump or they didn't vote at all.
00:37:09.000Or they're like, ah, geez, I don't know who to vote for.
00:38:21.000So, yeah, I think there's a lot of good, but I don't think it's all that different.
00:38:24.000They will always accuse you of being a Nazi, being a racist.
00:38:27.000The other thing, too, that I will say is we have results from it.
00:38:29.000You have to understand that when we were watching, like, for example, Leonardo Caprio narrating the whatever it was, they were talking about the climate thing where they talked about how they couldn't even film because there wasn't enough snow.
00:38:38.000And you look at people like Michael Moore and you look at an inconvenient truth.
00:38:44.000These predictions were all being made.
00:38:46.000And so many of them, they put a timer on it, and time's up.
00:38:51.000And now a lot of people have seen predictions not come to be.
00:38:54.000Also, on the positive, they've seen the Department of Education fail abysmally.
00:38:58.000They've seen the welfare state not work.
00:39:00.000They've seen the results of Section 8 housing.
00:39:02.000And then even you accelerate it in COVID, where people are told, if you homeschool your kids, you're just going to be social retards.
00:39:10.000They see, wait a second, public school is not working all that well.
00:39:12.000And actually, the kids who were homeschooled fared better and they weren't set back nearly as much.
00:39:16.000So I think people, even if they're inherently left because they think it's more empathetic, are able to look at the results and say, okay, well, this just doesn't really add up.
00:39:25.000So that is one thing that I would say is definitely different.
00:39:27.000And you benefit from that as a younger person.
00:40:29.000I think MAGA is sort of emblematic of that, but MAGA also is, I guess the big difference is Donald Trump sort of got rid of the stigma, the shame of being America first.
00:40:39.000Because it used to be, well, we have so much, so we should give it to all these other people until we realize that this doesn't work.
00:40:44.000Look at these nations in Africa who've received billions and billions.
00:40:46.000They're still cesspools of war and sadness.
00:43:24.000If there were no gun laws and you could be as armed as you wanted, would you be more amenable to their not being police or there being private security?
00:43:32.000You mean they're not being police or private security or not being police and replaced with private security?
00:44:10.000You're going to make a great point here, but I just wanted one thing.
00:44:12.000If there were no gun laws and there's no police because of it, some people would not be able to afford guns.
00:44:16.000Therefore, they would not be able to afford to defend themselves.
00:44:19.000Therefore, you could take anything from them just because they're poor or because they don't have the gun or if they're a pacifist or whatever.
00:44:25.000It would just, you would just be, oh, I have a private security team.
00:44:28.000There's no police force that's going to enforce the rules or protect and stuff like you.
00:44:32.000So I can just do whatever the hell I want.
00:46:16.000Should we undo the changes that we made so we could allow female officers who, by the way, have to go to their gun because it's their only tool.
00:46:22.000And oh my God, they're horrible with guns because they only fire 50 rounds a year.
00:46:34.000Let's increase, same thing for the military.
00:46:36.000Let's at least go back to the standards we had, but let's make them even more stringent so we can have fit, fighting-ready police officers.
00:46:45.000And let's train them better so that they can be more lethal when need be and be less lethal.
00:48:11.000You cannot imbue him with any self-esteem or any confidence unless he can handle the shit if it goes down and defend himself or as an adult, his kin, because he knows how.
00:48:23.000That power, now that kid can confidently say, hey, you better cut this out.
00:48:31.000First off, the kid's probably going to sense the confidence on him and probably not want to pick on him anymore, probably pick an easier target.
00:48:38.000Or he gets shoved down in a face full of dirt.
00:48:43.000But the left keeps wanting to empower people by making them power less.
00:48:48.000How are you empowering someone by getting them into the military in the name of equality, but the standards are lower?
00:48:55.000So by the way, the person next to them is less capable and less fit and less able to defend their life as a comrade.
00:49:03.000How do you empower women by getting them into the police force with poor training, by lowering standards and then putting them out in the real world?
00:49:10.000Because you know what that crack dealer is?
00:49:32.000But until I hear them say that means increased rigorous standards, increased training, more both violent and nonviolent options available, till they do that, it's all lip service.
00:49:48.000And what they really want is no police.
00:49:50.000Because at the end of the day, hey, let's go through the left's utopia.
00:49:54.000We're empowering neighborhoods and communities, and we're empowering women by getting them to the police force.
00:49:59.000Okay, if they had their way every single step of the, what would you have?
00:50:02.000You'd have a female police officer show up to a domestic dispute, let's say with an angry crackhead who's much larger than her.
00:50:12.000You'd have a woman show up who wasn't able to do any pull-ups or push-ups, who couldn't do the same kind of jog, who's more likely to experience bone fractures, be ragdolled, who only shoots 50 rounds, but has been trained in verbal de-escalation techniques that, oh my God, you may not realize don't work when someone's on PCP.
00:50:29.000And now the police officer is being beaten and/or raped too.
00:50:34.000But you've done everything the left did to empower communities and women.
00:50:41.000The person who shows up at your door is someone, I'm talking about police, with extreme accountability, body cam, sure, rigorous training standards that, by the way, they have to meet every single year.
00:50:53.000And at the very least, you know, is trained as well as anyone on that block with the firearm on a daily basis.
00:51:02.000He has the ability to bring in a counselor, but he also has the ability to choke, punch, and/or shoot you if you keep beating up on that helpless victim.
00:51:14.000Now, we've just talked about empowering those people in the police, right?
00:51:18.000But let me ask you this: which one of those scenarios empowers you more if you're in that house?
