00:00:00.000 Yeah. If you think we're collaborators and we've taken a heel turn and we're working with fascists, 0.56
00:00:05.140 why did you choose to get implicated with us all these days? But good news,
00:00:10.200 no longer implicated. Believe it or not, she did not stop there. This is now another show.
00:00:15.900 Watch. So Jenks line up until this point has been, no, no, no, it's at the collegiate level
00:00:19.940 and above. I think once you get to the college level and above, that's when it's bad. So he
00:00:23.380 would be on board with what the NCAA said recently. But you're so dumb. You're so dumb. I don't even 1.00
00:00:31.760 know how to explain this to you anymore. Unless, this is the other option, unless you also are a
00:00:38.220 transphobe. You know what I'm saying? Unless you also are kind of a misogynist. Because if you
00:00:44.120 disagree with Francesca or anyone on that. Yeah, he's like, I wasn't a misogynist,
00:00:49.920 but I might be now. Now he's looking at the misogyny route. He's like, that random redhead. 0.92
00:00:57.400 She might have a point about this misogyny. Part of the spectrum, well, you must be a
00:01:02.260 misogynist. You must be collaborating with the fascists. And obviously, you must be unintelligent. 0.79
00:01:08.220 Now, if I had called her dumb, I wonder what her reaction would have been. My guess is nuclear. But I 1.00
00:01:14.120 didn't call her that because we have a disagreement. We have a political disagreement. You don't need to
00:01:18.600 make it personal. Not done yet, one last one. What has it got you? What did it get you?
00:01:25.440 When you go and share a stage with Dr. Phil, what did it get you? Nothing. You know why?
00:01:34.460 Because you look like a bitch. You know what I'm saying? You look like a bitch. That's what it is. 1.00
00:01:42.200 Like that's just what it comes down to. You don't look like a fighter. You don't look smart. You look
00:01:48.300 like a bitch. That's just the reality. I've tried to tell it to you nicely. I've tried to tell it to 1.00
00:01:54.740 you cordially. I've tried to tell it to you on your show, on my show, on every show. And so either
00:02:02.200 you A, are a bitch or B, you don't actually, you actually agree with the right. And I'm starting 1.00
00:02:12.640 to think, in fact, I do think it's the latter. Okay. So what an idiot. Oh my gosh. I can't
00:02:21.440 believe she did that. I am speechless, appalled. Okay, hold on. Again, if I had called her that,
00:02:29.020 that would have been a different situation, right? But look, guys, also on the policy or the strategy,
00:02:34.140 when you go talk to the right-wingers, first we did that, and I mainly did that. And there was a
00:02:39.360 lot of blowback saying, don't, don't ever talk to the right-wing. But they won the popular vote.
00:02:44.600 How are we gonna win back the voters if we never talk to them? If we don't win them back,
00:02:48.280 we can't ever win an election. And that doesn't mean the far end of MAGA. It means the independents
00:02:52.780 that voted for Trump, and maybe some right-wing populace that voted for Trump. But now I've
00:02:56.980 noticed that that faction is now saying, well, I mean, of course we should talk to the right,
00:03:03.100 but we should only yell at them, or we should only accost them.
00:03:07.080 That seems like a really productive conversation. And now I guarantee you they'll say, no, no, no,
00:03:11.600 no, no, no, I don't mean just yell at them. But just build coalitions, as Francesca said
00:03:17.080 recently, apparently she's changed her mind about being a collaborator. But not with Trump voters.
00:03:23.040 Well, who would it be if it wasn't Trump voters? Those folks on the edge of the middle of the
00:03:27.920 spectrum were that we gotta bring to our side. We've gotta convince them that the populist left
00:03:32.220 is right, not necessarily a populist right, or where we agree, hey, great, let's work together
00:03:37.380 on that. So who are we building coalitions with, if it isn't the other side, or people who voted in
00:03:41.740 the other direction? And if we talk to them, what are we doing, only screaming fascists in their
00:03:45.740 face? Or are we having a human conversation? So look, this is not an attitude that I agree with.
00:03:50.960 Again, there are other shows that love what she's saying. And no problem, to each his own,
00:03:55.980 it's a free country. Go and love that, and yell, and scream, and do all the things that you wanna do.
00:04:00.020 But do you think that after you do a joint appearance with Dr. Phil or anyone else,
00:04:04.180 that the very next day all of MAGA is gonna show up and go, I changed my mind.
00:04:07.520 You're absolutely right. No, this is a gradual process where Americans begin to talk to one
00:04:12.500 another, and start to learn about each other, and start, that's what you mean. That's how you
00:04:17.020 perceived it. And we begin to have human conversations until we understand each other.
00:04:21.360 Again, if you don't wanna understand them, and you don't wanna do that, plenty of other shows.
00:04:25.500 So she said, I tried to tell him nicely, did you? Did you? Because I might have missed that part.
00:04:31.480 All right, guys, you get it by now. Look, there's two other times that I enforce this rule.
00:04:34.960 One was when Sam Cedar was doing it to Jimmy Dorn. They were both in the network. Sam's show was
00:04:41.320 not only in the network, it's part of our YouTube partner group. And that's what we were doing early
00:04:46.860 on. And I was happy and thrilled with all the folks that were in it before. And then we stopped
00:04:53.040 doing that since then. So God bless, no problem with that. And in terms of Sam and others leaving
00:04:59.580 at different points from that network we were trying to set up. But while they were in the network,
00:05:07.580 I said, Sam, you can disagree with Jimmy all you want. And in fact, I agree with you on the policy
00:05:11.660 you're criticizing him on. But stop doing personal insults. You're doing personal insult after personal
00:05:18.480 insult. So I talked to him about that. He wouldn't agree. He loved the personal insults. He wanted to
00:05:23.880 keep going. And apparently that's a thing that he does like. And that's what he likes to do every
00:05:28.040 time apparently. And so, okay, that's Sam. But we did enforce it before.
00:05:33.000 And then ironically, the second time we enforced it was against Jimmy Dorn when he was doing it to
00:05:38.040 Francesca. And he'd called her an effing liar. And he'd called her and he said that she was a paid
00:05:44.020 chill, which is a classic go-to move for Jimmy. Although he misspelled it paid chill, which sounds
00:05:50.280 pretty nice. And I said, Jimmy, you can't do that. I mean, ironically, he's the only one who actually
00:05:56.900 apologized and said, I won't do it again. And he apologized to Francesca. Francesca apparently
00:06:02.060 thought, great, I'm allowed to do this, but no one's allowed to do it to me. Anyway, you guys get it.
00:06:07.520 Exactly. So what they want to do is because women, we say things in a nicer tone. I mean, 0.90
00:06:14.860 we just have like better voice, like higher voices. And we don't really have consequences
00:06:20.880 for aggression verbally. Where men, if you, if you say the wrong thing, you're going to get beat up.
00:06:28.720 So we got this woman, essentially, she's thinking she's smarter than she is because all the men around 1.00
00:06:35.420 her are really smart. So she's going to think she's as smart as them. Then the ego gets bigger. You know 1.00
00:06:40.820 how us ladies do. Then she starts saying out of pocket things. The men don't correct her. They
00:06:46.900 kind of let her get away with it. And it just gets worse and worse and worse. And now she's fired 0.99
00:06:53.700 from a great job. What an idiot. So I don't, like I said, I want everybody wrong in the same direction 1.00
00:07:00.560 because we're trying to build something here. And why do we want to build something? Because we want
00:07:05.660 our movement to be strong. We want to get message to get out there. We want. I don't care if she has
00:07:12.280 another job lined up. Thank you for the super chat, Dustin. I can just had another job lined up. So did
00:07:18.540 Brett. They both could go independent and make a lot of money. It's just bad form to cause a media storm
00:07:24.640 on your way out. Look, I'll even, I'll even hold up my hands. I did that once and I regretted it immensely.
00:07:30.980 I mean, I didn't work for them, but you guys know me and fresh and fit out of falling out years ago
00:07:36.220 and it was completely my fault. It was completely. And I'm just, if anyone's younger, younger lady
00:07:43.200 watching this, you don't want to go this route. You really don't. It is not a good idea. I didn't,
00:07:50.140 I didn't do that bad, but you guys get the idea. I don't win over those voters because at the bottom,
00:07:55.560 the bottom line in all of this is eyes on the prize. You've heard me say that year after year
00:08:02.460 after year. What's the prize? The prize, by the way, note to other online hosts, is not more
00:08:09.100 subscribers. The prize is passing bills because those are the only things that affect our voters,
00:08:16.180 our audiences, their actual lives. Let's pass paid family leave. Let's pass Medicare for all, 0.92
00:08:21.880 higher wages, etc. And I hope wherever you are on the left wing spectrum or the middle or wherever
00:08:27.560 you are, I hope that you agree. And I hope that we all work together in trying to pass those bills.
00:08:32.760 So please, eyes on the prize. And so look, I'm gonna show you two charts here for-
00:08:36.660 Hit the like button.
00:08:37.540 Reason. There's a media matters that this chart recently, you guys, some of you might have seen
00:08:42.500 it on air. And it has the right wing shows online in red, and it has the left wing shows online in blue,
00:08:51.720 okay? What we did there, and I hope you can see it, is we put a little bit of a green circle around
00:08:56.860 the TYT show. So the Young Turks is right next to Rogan. We got 12 million subscribers, one of the
00:09:01.760 largest ones in the whole chart. But Rebel Headquarters is also on there, Damage Report is on there,
00:09:07.780 Indisputable with Dr. Rashad Ritchie's on there. And when you put them together, that's 18.8 million,
00:09:12.880 and it is-
00:09:14.440 Yeah, I mean, the Young Turks is huge. Somebody asked about Christine and Troy.
00:09:19.600 Yeah, so when I got demonetized, guys, I had to make a choice if I was gonna keep the studio in
00:09:24.980 England, and I just couldn't. I wished both of them well. I actually gave Christine her channel for free,
00:09:31.000 which was very nice of me, to be honest. I didn't have to do that. And I love Christine.
00:09:35.380 Like, that, that, she is a very, I have no bad things to say, but, like, she is a great young
00:09:41.980 woman. She was great to, like, great, she was really, she had a great channel. So I wish her
00:09:47.700 well, but I couldn't keep her on the network at the time, because I was demonetized. It was just too
00:09:52.880 much. So I moved home. But yeah, let me, let me keep going.
00:09:57.580 One of the largest presence in online media, period. If you include our alumni, people that have been in,
00:10:04.160 part of the TYT network in one way or another throughout the years, then we're at 30.1 million
00:10:10.680 subscribers, but with the way that Media Matters does it. Today, actually, when you include all the
00:10:15.620 platforms that were on, some of which Media Matters did not count, we're on, we have 27.
00:10:20.740 Okay, we get it. The man is famous. So next, I wanna bring up the conservative commentators that did
00:10:27.880 the same thing. Now, remember, Megyn Kelly, she sued Fox News, and now Brett Cooper is doing this
00:10:34.280 victim narrative. Now, I'd like to preface, I do like Brett. I think she's a nice, you know, I mean,
00:10:42.160 I can't say that if I had her fame, she's like five years younger than me. If I had her fame when I was
00:10:48.960 22, would I be perfect with it? No. So, but this victim narrative is really getting old. Okay,
00:10:57.400 this, this is, she, she's gotta stop with this. This is gonna, I know all the comment section is 1.00
00:11:04.440 gonna simp, but this is gonna come really out of touch. Okay, let me mute myself again.
00:11:10.200 Left the Daily Wire that... Adult friendships are really hard. When you left,
00:11:15.200 your maid of honor... What does this next chapter look like? Do you wanna say anything to her?
00:11:21.140 Someone said, oh no, leave the comment section alone. Don't simp, guys. I'm tired of this simping.
00:11:27.560 She's a normie conservative, but guys, she's still a woman, and we have the same tactics. She's, 1.00
00:11:32.880 she's doing woman stuff right now. Not all women, not all women, not all... Final straw. 1.00
00:11:38.580 I mean, almost nobody would give that up. Yeah. And start from scratch. And that's why I respect you
00:11:44.320 so much. Okay, so now what they're trying to do is place a victim mark on a woman that has made
00:11:52.220 millions of dollars being famous. At least minimum six figures, okay? And now what they're trying to
00:12:00.780 lead to is Brett Cooper somehow a victim because a company made her world famous, conservative
00:12:08.300 commentator and rich. And now she has to start over on her own. Dear God, like, oh my God. Make it... 0.63
00:12:16.040 Terrifying. I had, you know, Alex, I had a conversation. Many. This was not like a, like,
00:12:23.360 this is a lot of thinking and praying and analyzing. And we looked at each other and we're just kind of
00:12:28.220 like, are you willing to, are we basically willing to lose everything and start from scratch? Because
00:12:32.200 again, we had, you know, Alex had just started his own business. You were not starting from scratch.
00:12:36.560 You were starting being world famous. Okay. Yeah, I know. It's got like 2 million subscribers or
00:12:42.100 whatever it is. Yes. We had bought this farm that was like a stretch, but we really wanted it. And
00:12:48.400 I was like, I could leave and it could backfire on me immediately. Nobody could care. Maybe I wouldn't
00:12:54.660 make any money. Maybe I would have no anything. And I basically just had to decide like, does that
00:13:00.980 matter to me? And it didn't. And it worked. Yeah. So again, this is a virtue signal. The money doesn't
00:13:06.680 matter to me. And that's what she's going to try to sell. It's like a virtue signal. The money doesn't 1.00
00:13:12.260 matter. And guys, I've been demonetized for a year and a half. Oh, it matters. Okay. I'm recently
00:13:18.080 monetized. I saw a comment the other day. I was like, you're in a much better mood. Yeah. Cause I'm not
00:13:22.820 working for free. Now, again, there's men that do really difficult jobs in this country, right? They
00:13:28.700 build the buildings, pave the roads, do the garbage. Those are the guys starting from scratch,
00:13:35.620 you could say. Yeah, I know. Poor Brett. She's a millionaire. I know. Us ladies, right? 0.99
00:13:42.820 And then it wasn't because I was like, yeah. A million subs in one month when you launched your
00:13:47.400 new show. Yeah. It was very humbling and gratifying. Yeah. She left a
00:13:52.800 sinking ship. Okay. The daily wire is going down and they're sinking. And now people are jumping
00:13:59.840 ship. That's not, that's not this victim arc that they're trying to sell right now.
00:14:06.220 Fine. I was like, okay. But it was, I mean, it's terrifying. And I literally like our conversation
00:14:10.840 was like, okay, again, I just want to, I want to preface how this sounds. It's terrifying
00:14:15.800 to talk for a little, you know, there's men that run into fires. Okay. There's men that run into
00:14:22.340 fires, burning buildings, and you're terrified to talk. Okay. Are we willing? My mom had just
00:14:29.080 decided to move to Nashville. I was like, we were willing to like, go move back in with her
00:14:31.900 and like, literally start over. If like, you're funding our life now, Alex, and I can't help it
00:14:37.660 all. And I'm making no money. Like if all of it went away. And at the end of the day, like,
00:14:40.920 I don't really care about being famous. Like it. Okay. Now, again, this is what we say. Do we look at
00:14:46.920 what women say or what they do? She used to be an actress. That's a job where you get famous, 1.00
00:14:52.880 right? She was, I think, at a couple movies. Now she's going to be a social media star, 0.68
00:15:00.080 right? Yeah. So.
00:15:02.660 Comes with what I do, but I would be very, I would be just as happy if I was telling stories
00:15:08.760 in a different capacity. Again, it's finding the root of what you love to do and then applying it.
00:15:13.420 Like, I don't need this to survive. I don't crave it.
00:15:19.000 Now, again, this is the tradition, like, you know, it's the fake trad, right? We're going to buy a farm,
00:15:25.740 but I need a reason to be online because women love being on the internet. I love it here, right?
00:15:30.320 This is great, but it's not what they're selling, right? Sorry, Pearl Reed. Why is this stream not in
00:15:36.080 the Audacity Network? I'm sorry. It normally will be tomorrow. It'll be back. But today I'm streaming on
00:15:42.860 the road. I just didn't know how to do it. Yeah. Okay. I do it because I love sharing stories with
00:15:49.820 people. I love hopefully making them think differently about the world. I love making
00:15:53.820 people feel like they're not alone in whatever they're going through, whether that's like...
00:15:57.120 I love making people feel like they're not alone. You could have been a therapist, right? I could
00:16:02.740 think of like 10 jobs that you could have did if that's what you wanted. And by the way, this isn't
00:16:08.600 an insult. This isn't to say I'm different. You know, you want to be famous. It's all right.
00:16:15.040 It's pretty cool. It's pretty fun. There's ups and downs to it, but there are benefits.
00:16:21.440 On my subscription platform where we do our Dear Brett series, and I'm able to talk to people,
00:16:25.580 like I had a girl last week, you know, talk to me about, you know, she has a grandfather with
00:16:29.480 dementia who is, you know, forgetting who she is and has gotten violent and is like, how do you,
00:16:33.560 how do you go through that? Like, how do you still love somebody and be there,
00:16:37.040 but protect yourself and know that, you know, that isn't the person that you know anymore.
00:16:40.400 I got to talk about my brother, which I don't often get to do. And it's like, I've had so much
00:16:44.080 crap happen in 23 years. It's like, I hope that I can make somebody's life a little better if they
00:16:49.160 haven't experienced this and they're now going through it for the first time. I hope I can make
00:16:52.100 you feel less crazy about the world and feel less alone, but I don't have to have 4 million or a million
00:17:00.000 subs to do that. Like that, that isn't why I...
00:17:03.040 Yeah. So again, it's a virtue signal. So again, she's saying, I'm not here to be famous because
00:17:10.420 people are catching on that. That's what she's in it for. Not a bad thing, right? It's just not
00:17:15.460 honest. I'll say it's not really honest because there's a million jobs that she could do the same 0.76
00:17:20.780 thing and not do that. But I mean, I like, no, like let's not virtue signal in the chat. You guys
00:17:27.060 would all take that opportunity, but you know, this, come on, that's a lie.
