00:00:00.000 Because beautiful women will go to an A-level city, where midwomen will go to generally a B-level city.
00:00:06.280 Because midwomen can't compete in the A-levels.
00:00:10.780 Because she's really close to beautiful, but her face is just a little bit...
00:00:15.040 I think it's a big...
00:00:16.500 Like, she's like, in some pictures, I think she's beautiful.
00:00:20.060 But then I'll see ones where I think she...
00:00:22.860 I'm going to say eight.
00:00:24.040 I'm going to say eight.
00:00:25.900 But I'll just see ones like this occasionally, where I'm like, hmm.
00:00:30.820 Yeah, I'm going to say eight, final answer.
00:00:34.920 Cool.
00:00:35.960 Yeah, so that's how I do my ratings, Pia.
00:00:40.260 It's like another world to me, because I just don't think about people like that.
00:00:44.280 Like, when I see celebrities, they're just like...
00:00:46.240 They are this abstract concept of, this is probably a beautiful woman.
00:00:50.000 Like, when I see even YouTubers and influencers, like most influencers I know are beautiful people.
00:00:55.720 They just are.
00:00:56.720 And I don't...
00:00:57.400 Like, there's no number rating system.
00:00:58.640 No offense, I just can't trust your ratings after the rating you did, Pisha Payne.
00:01:03.100 I think she's beautiful.
00:01:05.040 Okay, wait, I'll give you a more acceptable one.
00:01:06.940 That destroyed all...
00:01:08.000 Sorry, go ahead.
00:01:09.360 Tara Yummy.
00:01:10.460 I think she is a smoke show.
00:01:12.700 Ten out of ten.
00:01:13.260 Let me see.
00:01:13.880 Tara Yummy.
00:01:15.520 I follow all her stuff.
00:01:16.780 Oh, this girl.
00:01:18.640 She's pretty, but I would not put her above in...
00:01:23.040 It's tough.
00:01:23.640 I think she looks like a young...
00:01:25.160 Hold on, let me show you.
00:01:25.820 Megan Fox slash...
00:01:27.500 She's the best rating you've given, but I need to see a body picture.
00:01:32.760 No, she's like a six.
00:01:34.120 Come on.
00:01:37.040 No, yeah.
00:01:37.860 You guys are crazy.
00:01:39.180 Like, the fact that you...
00:01:40.500 I'm telling you, you're not going to find an influencer with a female audience that's
00:01:45.220 not mid.
00:01:46.100 Women feel too icky when they see women too hot.
00:01:51.120 I was going to give her a seven, actually.
00:01:53.520 I was going to give her a seven.
00:01:55.040 But I can't see...
00:01:55.960 She might be...
00:01:56.640 She might...
00:01:57.200 I can't tell how flat...
00:01:58.820 Women don't...
00:02:00.040 Women...
00:02:00.780 Men subtract more for women being flat than women do.
00:02:04.680 So, for women, it's skinny first, curves second.
00:02:09.380 Men, it's curves first.
00:02:11.080 Like, they like boobs and butt.
00:02:12.760 So, that's always...
00:02:13.840 If I ever forget or do bad on a rating, it's usually because I overrated skinny and underrated
00:02:19.380 boobs and butt.
00:02:22.340 But...
00:02:22.860 Again, I just don't think about people like...
00:02:25.960 Like, when I think of like, oh, that's a beautiful person.
00:02:27.900 I'm not thinking like, do they have X, Y, Z?
00:02:30.420 Do they have this?
00:02:31.140 Do they have that?
00:02:31.720 You know, it's not like a tick box in my head.
00:02:32.940 I'm just like, oh, that's a really beautiful girl.
00:02:34.680 Well, I do a lot of like mid-watch on this show.
00:02:39.240 I have categories.
00:02:41.240 Like, I talk about the trends that beautiful women do.
00:02:44.380 Because beautiful women will go to an A-level city where mid-women will go to generally a
00:02:49.200 B-level city.
00:02:50.540 Because mid-women can't compete in the A-levels.
00:02:53.900 You know, so...
00:02:55.080 I do a lot of societal trends.
00:02:57.080 So, I gotta rate you to see what you can get, you know, in the open market.
00:03:01.180 And I would say, P.M., maybe that you've grown up in the age of mids.
00:03:09.300 I mean, people try to say that, like, who's that Millie Bobby Brown?
00:03:13.700 She is a dog and a half.
00:03:16.280 And people are like, oh, she's not even close.
00:03:19.500 No way.
00:03:21.160 You've grown up in the age of mids.
00:03:23.160 So, I think the days of having nines and tens in movies was literally before your time.
00:03:28.660 Like, we had the Pamela Anderson's and stuff back in my day.
00:03:32.000 But, like, the women, the Zendaya's and the Zoe Kravitz's and the Millie Bobby Brown's,
00:03:37.480 they're like sixes and six, maybe sevens at best.
00:03:40.520 And they're all over Hollywood right now.
00:03:42.680 Come on.
00:03:43.940 As most of you know, I have been fighting on the front lines of the simp epidemic for years.
00:03:49.060 But I need to tell you about a quiet weapon being ratcheted up against men that is rarely talked about.
00:03:54.200 It's not just the relentless anti-masculinity propaganda and OnlyFans hoes
00:03:58.360 causing the societal issues that we discuss on this show.
00:04:02.020 Did you know that the average city's tap water contains trace pharmaceuticals and endocrine disruptors?
00:04:07.080 This often includes estrogen from birth control.
00:04:10.200 The average adult consumes a credit card worth of plastic every single week.
00:04:14.080 That's five grams of plastic a week on average.
00:04:16.860 So, it's no wonder that the average male's testosterone is half of what the average was 50 years ago.
00:04:23.140 Testosterone levels decline 1% a year.
00:04:25.500 And without a course correction, we are headed towards extinction.
00:04:28.360 No matter how based you are, you need to be naturally boosting your testosterone.

00:05:24.580 Is that not a good thing?
00:05:25.840 No, it's not.
00:05:27.260 I don't agree with you, but like why do we need an achievement?
00:05:31.240 Okay, so that's like, I'm going to tell you the equivalent.
00:05:35.180 So the equivalent of that for men is like, why don't we have people in the rec league playing in the NBA?
00:05:41.780 I don't know what that means.
00:05:43.420 Okay, so, all right.
00:05:47.240 You don't know what the NBA is?
00:05:49.920 Is that basketball?
00:05:51.660 Basketball league.
00:05:52.860 England doesn't have basketball.
00:05:54.140 What is the football league called there?
00:05:59.640 I don't remember.
00:06:00.480 I don't want to.
00:06:00.660 Like the World Cup or like the Premier League?
00:06:04.600 That's like saying, why, like that would be like if the men came forward and they said,
00:06:10.180 I need to be more inclusive.
00:06:11.680 Can we have more rec league players in the Premier League?
00:06:15.380 Can we have like.
00:06:15.920 Okay, okay.
00:06:16.640 So, and that's the equivalent is Hollywood.
00:06:19.260 Everyone's supposed to be beautiful.
00:06:20.980 That's the point.
00:06:22.480 But I, I don't know.
00:06:23.940 I don't know if I'd agree with that because I think diversity is really good to have.
00:06:28.280 Yeah, I know.
00:06:28.720 No, no, no.
00:06:30.280 She's, she's right.
00:06:31.280 According to the female lens.
00:06:32.660 She's proving my point.
00:06:33.520 Cause that's what women do.
00:06:34.500 So men organize on how good they are.
00:06:37.580 So men like hierarchy where women always want it to be egalitarian.
00:06:41.220 They want everyone to be equal and like feel good.
00:06:44.060 So.
00:06:44.260 It's not necessarily about equal.
00:06:45.340 I just think it's nice for kids to see.
00:06:47.420 Like when I, I don't know, you might've had this as a ginger kid.
00:06:49.940 Like when I was a ginger kid growing up, I loved the little mermaid.
00:06:52.540 Cause she was the ginger princess.
00:06:54.860 And so I think about like, I think minorities anymore.
00:06:57.840 I'm like, you know, I feel like, do you know, we, we keep getting replaced.
00:07:02.860 Like all of the ginger women, Spider-Man man was replaced.
00:07:07.460 The little mermaid was like, there's a horse to go.
00:07:11.540 I just, there's a redhead genocide in Hollywood right now.
00:07:15.620 I think it's nice to see people like you on screen and like, as a ginger, I feel that
00:07:19.680 way.
00:07:19.840 So I can imagine like if I was an ethnic minority or whatever, I would definitely feel that way
00:07:23.720 where I'd, I'd want to see myself on screen.
00:07:26.160 The minorities have enough screen time.
00:07:29.260 They have plenty.
00:07:30.340 They have plenty.
00:07:31.420 Bring back the ginger screen time.
00:07:34.280 I want an eight plus, no mid, give me a ginger that makes me feel bad about myself.
00:07:40.220 Thank you.
00:07:41.760 I'm just going to say this real fast.
00:07:43.560 So I think anything that you have to be successful at or anything you make money at
00:07:46.940 requires work, right?
00:07:48.560 So like my day job, I have to get up.
00:07:50.760 I have to commute.
00:07:51.900 I have to sit in front of a computer.
00:07:53.680 I don't want to do it, but I have to do it to make money.
00:07:56.080 Right?
00:07:56.500 So I don't mind the fact that female models have to be like five foot 11 and 125 pounds.
00:08:02.920 You want to know why?
00:08:03.740 Because that's hard.
00:08:04.980 Not a lot of people can do it.
00:08:06.400 You have to make sacrifices to be that thin.
00:08:10.280 Plus size models.
00:08:11.280 What, what work do they have to do?
00:08:14.580 Mids.
00:08:15.120 Like there's no rarity.
00:08:17.160 There's no work.
00:08:18.160 There's nothing.
00:08:18.920 If you want to be a supermodel, it should take sacrifice.
00:08:21.620 I want to see you eating coffee, cotton balls and fricking smoking cigarettes and drinking
00:08:28.280 water.
00:08:28.860 That's what, because that's hard.
00:08:30.560 Anything that requires a lot of money should be hard.
00:08:33.460 And we've lowered the bar so low now.
00:08:37.080 I hate it.
00:08:39.420 I just, yeah.
00:08:41.020 I don't, I don't know why you think that though.
00:08:43.340 Like, I just don't relate to that feeling of like, these people need to work hard.
00:08:46.220 You need to suffer to have success.
00:08:47.660 Like, I think if you have success, you have success and that's good for you.
00:08:51.200 Is that, is that so bad?
00:08:53.220 It's because it's because you're a woman.
00:08:55.640 Yeah, I know.
00:08:57.760 That's the most woman thing I've ever seen.
00:08:59.600 Yeah, I know.
00:09:00.260 God.
00:09:01.540 What do you mean?
00:09:02.420 Like, I don't even think it's about working for success.
00:09:06.120 It's not, it's like the issue with a lot of this, like body positivity and diversity.
00:09:10.120 Like, did you see that beauty pageant, like I think a year ago where a plus size woman
00:09:14.100 won first place over somebody skinny, like, like the point is that the plus size woman
00:09:20.140 basically just showed up, put on a pretty dress and then won first place.
00:09:23.800 Whereas the person who was skinny, she did a calorie deficit.
00:09:28.140 She worked out, she went on walks, she woke up early so she could work out before she
00:09:31.520 went and practiced for her beauty pageant.
00:09:33.540 It's not about suffering.
00:09:34.860 It's about putting in the work to like win.
00:09:38.280 It's the same thing with like all the diversity that's going on.
00:09:40.940 I don't know if you know Purdue University.
00:09:43.100 I forgot what state they're in.
00:09:44.640 But you're more likely to get into that university if you're black or of another minority rather
00:09:49.300 than if you're white.
00:09:50.700 My, one of my friends, one of my really good friends got rejected from that university,
00:09:53.980 even though she had over 4.0 GPA.
00:09:56.940 She had great test scores, but a different person I know didn't have a 4.0, but they
00:10:02.300 were black and they got in.
00:10:04.060 So it's not about, it's not about, um, that just sounds like such an anecdotal thing.
00:10:09.840 I don't want to get into like race debates because one, I live in England and in America,
00:10:14.360 I think there's quite a different environment over there.
00:10:15.960 But like, I, yeah, I don't, I don't want to get into that.
00:10:19.180 I'll talk about body positivity, but like when it comes to, yeah, but I think she's
00:10:23.460 just about the, yeah, it's just about like the inclusivity.
00:10:28.320 It's the same thing with like, we shouldn't have fat people winning beauty pageants because
00:10:31.480 the skinny people work 10 times harder to win and they lose to fat people because we're
00:10:35.400 saying fat people are allowed in these things and they should win.
00:10:38.980 And we're saying that they are a 10, even though they're a 2.
00:10:41.520 So, okay.
00:10:44.480 And I think that that, like, I think that's cope.
00:10:47.700 Do you know what I mean?
00:10:48.080 Like, I think it's, I think it is silly.
00:10:49.740 If something is based solely on like a bikini round and this and that, like the objective
00:10:54.800 standard is like, no, the plus size person should not win that.
00:10:57.700 I would agree with you there.
00:10:59.540 If there's like positive discrimination towards these people, which is what I'm assuming you're
00:11:03.260 applying.
00:11:04.220 Um, yeah, I do think that that's silly.
00:11:06.200 Like no, like fat person should win the biggest loser.
00:11:08.400 Like that wouldn't make sense, you know?
00:11:09.920 But, um, I lost my, like, I was a plus size model and I lost my plus size modeling contract
00:11:15.000 because I lost weight.
00:11:16.480 Like, you know, it's, it's, it's more about representation and clothes.
00:11:21.140 And a lot of the modeling I did was wardrobe modeling, which is when you go in and you
00:11:24.580 are a set size and they just do the clothes to you.
00:11:27.960 Like, it's not to do with like, oh, I don't want to see this fat model on my screen.
00:11:31.320 It was just like.
00:11:32.260 No, but it is indirectly though, because women are buying.
00:11:35.680 And so it just, if you follow the female dollar, it makes sense because there's going to be
00:11:41.120 more jobs.
00:11:41.940 There's more fat women now.
00:11:43.500 So there's good.
00:11:44.480 And women can't deal with like women on screen being hotter.
00:11:48.540 So they'll just have more jobs for fat women and fat models.
00:11:52.760 And the sad part about it is, um, a guy will see Chris Evans and Avengers with his shirt
00:12:00.020 off and be like, and it'll inspire him to go to the gym, right?
00:12:04.420 A woman will see Pia here and be like, and feel threatened and be like, oh, she shouldn't
00:12:11.320 be there.
00:12:12.040 They'll see Scarlett Johansson or some attractive woman and feel threatened or triggered by it.
00:12:18.740 So why can men be inspired, inspired by men that are in shape and have ads, but women
00:12:25.120 are triggered by it?
00:12:26.080 Um, I just, yeah, that was going to be, in my opinion, sorry, sorry, I was going to say,
00:12:33.780 that's my point.
00:12:34.480 When you said earlier that you lost all your Instagram likes when you got skinny, it's
00:12:38.440 because you were fat and then you got skinny.
00:12:40.340 So all these women were liking your pictures because they're like, oh, I'm prettier than
00:12:43.680 her.
00:12:43.880 I'm stuff like that.
00:12:44.760 And then you lost weight.
00:12:45.940 You got skinnier than these women.
00:12:47.280 And now these women don't want to have anything to do with you because they feel intimidated by
00:12:51.460 you because you got skinny, because you lost the weight, because you're prettier
00:12:54.280 now.
00:12:56.620 I'm sure that there is a degree of that within people, but I think it's quite pessimistic
00:13:01.320 to think that that is everybody.
00:13:03.060 Like your view of this is what all women feel.
00:13:06.240 Like I don't feel intimidated when I feel I see an attractive woman and I didn't when
00:13:09.200 I was fat.
00:13:09.820 When I was fat, all of my friends were thin.
00:13:11.560 Like I had a couple of fat friends, but all of my friends were beautiful, thin women, you
00:13:15.500 know, and they still are because they're the same friends.
00:13:17.660 My husband was thin.
00:13:19.000 My husband still is thin.
00:13:19.860 He's the same man.
00:13:20.380 But like, I don't know, I just I didn't feel that way.
00:13:23.240 I think if you're comfortable in yourself, you don't feel that way.
00:13:27.360 Like, I think it's great to have everyone on TV.
00:13:29.300 I think it's nice.
00:13:30.180 I like seeing incredibly attractive people as much as I like seeing people that represent
00:13:33.820 your average Joe.
00:13:35.220 Well, I don't think you can pick out incredibly attractive people based on who you selected,
00:13:40.660 which is normal for women.
00:13:42.780 It's normal for women.
00:13:43.800 Um, that's, I just, it's pretty normal for women.
00:13:46.840 If you picked them, like you picked out the most attractive people ever to make a TV show
00:13:51.900 as you have with pregame.
00:13:53.740 You said I picked out the most attractive girls I could to put on the thumbnails.
00:13:57.500 Fine.
00:13:58.040 Like I, you know, I wouldn't ever have anything against those women.
00:14:00.620 And if I thought they had something positive to say, I would follow them and encourage
00:14:03.020 them.
00:14:03.280 And I like their stuff.
00:14:05.120 You know, I just think people need to be more comfortable with themselves.
00:14:07.560 Yeah, well, I'll let, I'll close out on that point, um, because we are about to hit the
00:14:14.560 two hour mark, but yeah, thank you so much for coming.
00:14:18.680 It seems like it is fun.
00:14:19.500 Thanks for having me.
00:14:20.600 I was thinking your opinions would have changed a little bit, but it seems like they're pretty
00:14:24.460 much the same, which is fine.
00:14:26.840 You know, I'm happy for you either way.
00:14:29.180 Um, do you have any final thoughts you want to tell the crowd, the people?
00:14:33.920 Uh, I don't know.
00:14:36.040 Thanks for having me.
00:14:37.040 Oh, should I say some things?
00:14:38.680 Uh, trans rights are human rights.
00:14:40.980 Uh, actually, I actually love, you could actually put all your beliefs like that because, um,
00:14:48.200 it helps me stay monetized.
00:14:49.920 So yeah, that's fine.
00:14:50.660 Go ahead.
00:14:51.160 Put list them all.
00:14:52.760 Oh, uh, do you know what?
00:14:54.580 I can't actually think of anything else.
00:14:56.180 I believe in body positivity.
00:14:57.300 You should wear a bikini.
00:14:58.080 Do you know what?
00:14:58.460 Wear whatever you want, guys.
00:14:59.520 Like if you feel comfortable, just wear it.
00:15:00.820 Don't listen to these people on the internet.
00:15:01.980 They won't say it in real life.
00:15:02.840 Even Pearl just admitted.
00:15:03.640 She won't say it in real life.
00:15:04.900 Trans rights are human rights.
00:15:05.840 We love trans people here.
00:15:07.940 LGBT.
00:15:08.760 We love the LGBTQ rights.
00:15:10.060 You're a queen.
00:15:10.580 Don't vote for Trump.
00:15:11.500 You're a queen.
00:15:12.140 I actually don't know who the other competitor is in America, but Trump's kind of off the
00:15:18.460 radar, right?
00:15:19.160 I don't know.
00:15:20.060 Anyway, I feel like the chat's really like me and now I'm gonna.
00:15:23.440 It's fine.
00:15:24.200 It'll stay monetized.
00:15:25.400 Your English, your opinion about Trump doesn't count.
00:15:28.460 So, you know, we're actually looking to do more debate shows like once or twice a week.
00:15:33.000 So we'd love to have you back if you do want to argue some points.
00:15:36.360 So I always love to argue.
00:15:38.880 I'll message you.
00:15:39.740 And if you're free, feel free to.
00:15:41.920 Now that you're thin, we'll be nice.
00:15:46.500 Let's go.
00:15:47.940 You guys are terrible people.
00:15:49.560 You'll actually objectively.
00:15:50.780 Where are your thin people?
00:15:54.240 I have my sister on the line, my brother's friend, and now I'm thin.
00:15:58.220 You know what?
00:15:59.260 We should have got Sugar Puff.
00:16:01.560 Is he thin now?
00:16:03.900 No, but.
00:16:05.080 I lost that Instagram.
00:16:06.960 So I lost everybody's Instagram pretty much.
00:16:09.360 His name's Sugar Puff.
00:16:10.540 Just such Sugar Puff.
00:16:12.120 You'll find him.
00:16:13.300 He's funny.
00:16:13.760 I'll have my phone done, but I will.
00:16:15.820 You should have got him on to talk about body positivity again.
00:16:19.460 Yeah, totally.
00:16:21.260 Doug, MP, are you going to do final thoughts?
00:16:23.640 Yeah, you should want to be in good health so the people that love you on this planet,
00:16:29.180 you can be here for them to love you as long as possible.
00:16:32.340 And you're going to be here longer enough to do that if you are not a fat slob whale.
00:16:38.200 Okay?
00:16:39.340 I'm really glad that Pia lost all the way.
00:16:41.740 I can't believe it's the same person.
00:16:43.600 Don't discount all of the work you've done because it kind of sounds like you're doing that.
00:16:48.480 And also, there's going to be a time where you're going to have to stop caping for these
00:16:53.900 people because they will not reciprocate the support that you have for them back.
00:16:57.120 They're going to eat you alive because you care about your health.
00:17:02.780 You're a good-looking woman.
00:17:04.400 You're married.
00:17:04.940 Especially if you have a family, watch.
00:17:07.480 If you have a family and you're in shape, they're going to eat you alive.
00:17:11.080 So just watch out because you're giving support to people that want to support you back.
00:17:15.800 But thank you for coming on.
00:17:17.580 I really, really appreciate it.
00:17:19.460 And I promise I'll be nice this time.
00:17:22.400 I think I did a pretty good job.
