00:46:11.400chat because it kind of decreases the quality when we all right i'm taking him out and then
00:46:17.240there's someone that says uh 813-727-8616
00:46:23.680i don't 813 don't read it might be a phone number okay sorry well uh who else
00:46:40.880uh next up we have esteban hey what's going on man hey how are you i can't complain how
00:46:51.520you guys been hey doug and p i need to get your email man there's some things i really want to
00:46:56.880talk with you about and i i know uh we've been playing cat and mouse but i really need your
00:47:01.840email brother yeah you could do doug at at the audacity network yeah yeah can we do that a
00:47:10.160different time um so sure sure yeah yeah i was just saying yeah yeah so why should i why should
00:47:15.760i have hope well um i'm gonna sound very contradictory here because i'm gonna quote
00:47:24.240unquote be talking out of both sides of my mouth okay um please just like two minutes or less all
00:47:32.400right? Okay, well, you as a fit, feminine, come from a stable, nuclear, two-parent, family home
00:47:50.440that's not a thought or a 304, more than likely doesn't have a high body count,
00:47:59.860you should have hope as a woman as a white woman too um so you as an individual and women that fit
00:48:12.860at least some if not all of the things that i just mentioned about you should have hope
00:48:20.240because you have your you have options right but i'm talking about for society
00:48:29.860Okay. Well, that's why I said women that fit the same or have some of the same descriptors that I just mentioned with you, they should also have hope.
00:48:40.800The problem is, is the reason now, the reason why you shouldn't have hope is because women with your descriptors are being led astray or having bad influence, you know, on what this, because society is turning darker by the minute.
00:48:58.500and it's, it's women that have the descriptors that I just mentioned for you
00:49:06.120that have the choices that should have hope. Um, they don't. And that's because,
00:49:15.340you know, they're under the influence, call it social media. I just think it's just wicked,
00:49:22.140evil, and demonic. That's just me personally, because there should be hope, but I realize that
00:49:31.680there's not. And so I just think, you had mentioned something earlier about marriage is going to be
00:49:43.020less and women are going to do more sex work. I actually disagree. I think marriage is still
00:49:49.560going to relatively stay the same, but it's not going to be love. And there's probably going to
00:49:57.280be a lot of loveless, not probably, I think there's going to be a lot of loveless, sexless,
00:50:04.980non-committed, non-faithful marriages. That's just what I think is going to happen. I don't
00:50:16.320necessarily think marriage is going to go away because men are going to want to, because men
00:50:23.320still believe that having a functional society, even non-trad or even non-religious slash faith-based
00:50:35.540men and women still believe that having a functional society, at least mostly men,
00:50:41.720Do you think the marriage rate's going to go up or down?
00:50:44.880i think it's going to stay about the same okay do you think the age of first marriage is going
00:50:50.840to go up or down i think that will slightly increase yes do you think people will have
00:50:56.820more kids no because and that's been on a downward trend for a while so you think it'll keep going
00:51:03.540down for certain demographics yes do you think that the establishment do you think that the
00:51:42.060speaking up so at least the issues are being brought to light i'm just saying that's better
00:51:49.180than nothing do you but you don't see it equating to policy change not as fast or as concrete there
00:52:03.580may be some things here or there yeah but nothing with real teeth in the long run no
00:52:12.060I think there might be a few kind of throw them a bone kind of things here and there, but nothing that has real teeth that's going to bring about real solid change.
00:52:27.420I don't think there will be mandatory DNA testing.
00:52:31.560I don't think that there will be the end of no fault divorce.
00:52:35.400I don't think that there will ultimately be real punishment for what is essentially, you know, when women falsely accuse men of crime they didn't commit.
01:25:49.380hello i can't he's sorry guys we have too many calls for that guys please get your audio figured
01:25:56.420out we're we're booting today if you don't have it figured out we're just booting um okay i'm gonna
01:26:02.660bring up chris is connecting audio guys make sure to like the stream subscribe if you haven't already

01:26:15.300youtube chat appreciate it and trolling in the chat will not be tolerated i booed a couple
01:26:20.420people out carlos is there steve's in we're not having it tonight so thank you everyone
01:26:26.660for keeping it classy in the chat chris your audio is connecting chris your audio is connecting
01:26:33.940okay now there's a check mark chris you there yeah how's my audio good hi chris um so what
01:26:41.620do you think of the topic why should i have hope so while i was waiting and you were talking to all
01:26:48.500all those other hopeful souls uh which to be honest kind of sapped what was left of mine
01:26:54.880honestly i think about listening to these people it's like this is why we're in the
01:27:01.420place that we're at people are so pathetic and it's harsh but i mean we live in a harsh world
01:27:08.660right like uh the the fact is you said it uh while i was waiting and it reminded me of a quote that i
01:27:16.300really like and and the quote goes never overestimate your ability to change the world
01:27:22.260never underestimate your ability to change yourself so i think that i have i have no hope
01:27:29.600in society to be honest with you but i i do have hope in myself like i i i can see the light in uh
01:27:37.280small positives and i like i don't live a depressed life but i think i would if i actually
01:27:44.880wanted something good out of society or or or expected anything good out of like
01:27:50.720anything but myself and like the small circle of people around me yeah i agree i think um
01:27:57.840the cool thing is with the internet you can improve a lot of things you can find answers to
01:28:03.140stuff and you can make your life pretty cool but women are gonna women you know so i like what
01:28:10.440jordan pearson they asked him why do young people always um you know grab onto these large issues
01:28:18.240like saving the environment or these or these idiots that are um are sitting in on ivy league
01:28:25.040college campuses for what's going on in the sandbox over there and he said it's because
01:28:29.700when you're young you just don't have a lot of value and you can't do much so they want to feel
01:28:36.420important by latching onto these large colleges these large causes because dealing with their
01:28:42.500own insignificance is too much and i think that what's going on in society is that times a thousand
01:28:48.680i think one of the best things you can do is shorten your circle and focus on your issues
01:28:54.460and that's it right yeah and honestly it's like uh i love this kind of content i i also happen to
01:29:02.380love women they're great to look at and they become more and more entertaining all the time
01:29:07.980uh i i think that women are definitely cooked as far as taking them seriously
01:29:13.900uh the decisions that they make even so early on they put themselves in a position where
01:29:19.580they're no good to a man long term uh they don't even realize it and by the time any of them
01:29:25.660actually do it's like so beyond repair plus they probably already start damaging another generation
01:29:32.620at that point so like i'd say we're multiple generations away from any real change i would
01:29:39.100not be hopeful that that would be happening in my lifetime but again i'm still enjoying
01:29:45.100like watching everything burn and like i mean as a as a near middle-aged man like it's never been
01:29:52.860so easy to get sex i look a little bit younger than my actual age and yeah i mean there are
01:30:00.540times when you'll meet somebody and you'll think wow she seems nice or nicer than a lot of the
01:30:05.420women you meet but it literally only takes a couple of meetings to figure out how she has
01:30:11.180also kind of falling into some of the bs that yeah we have going on over here yep yep all right
01:30:18.380all right chris well thank you for calling in buddy we have full call lines that was pretty
01:30:22.300funny so thank you okay no problem thank you guys for having me it was uh it was it was cool to do
01:30:27.820this it's nice to know that my audio actually works yeah yeah call anytime the only one i swear
01:30:33.580guys audio youtube off in the background please god just be like chris you did good okay next up
01:30:44.740we have the guy who's ninja hey can you hear me hey how are you i'm doing well thank you how about
01:30:54.260yourself i'm good um so tell me why should i have hope for society so i think your hope for society
01:31:05.220is going to honestly be placed in doing what you're already doing um you're already on the
01:31:12.760right path to go ahead and bring things up uh just making it known that repetitive communication is
01:31:22.440going to be what is ultimately going to start to, I don't want to say radicalize, but just make
01:31:29.520people more aware of how things are. I predict it'll start to change, nothing dramatic enough,
01:31:39.580but within five to 10. And then probably about 20 years out is when we'll see the full shift of
01:31:46.660you know people wanting to get back to being more altruistic for society and their communities
01:31:54.900what do you what specific stat are we going to see change like is it the birth rate the marriage
01:32:00.720rate and let's talk about women because like i said before earlier women know what they what
01:32:07.480what they ought to be doing to change things but they're choosing to to not do it go right right
01:32:15.000So with women, they do have a tendency to follow as men create their own spaces.
01:32:22.440So I would say we're going to start to the stat we're going to see is most likely in a faith-based type of like currently you can kind of see little echoes of things of people saying that they're going to Orthodox churches or more Catholic type things.
01:32:37.880and that's where we're going to start to kind of see that pivotal point in the five to ten
01:32:44.340is there's just going to start to be more pockets of that starting to show attendance has declined
01:32:50.260in the last decade true there there has definitely been a lot like when we're talking about like
01:32:57.040protestant stuff a lot of people are leaving that in droves but you're starting to see
01:33:01.300i think it was like gen z and alpha start to become more orthodox in the u.s has generally
01:33:07.140declined with a noticeable drop in the post-pandemic period also declined and then also 45 to 33
01:33:16.900over the past two decades according to 2024 gallup poll you're starting to see muslim islamic
01:33:24.180feminists bro it's just a matter of every in the next 20 30 years every religious institution
01:33:30.420is going to have feminism every single one of them except the amish women make up 80 percent
01:33:35.380of consumer buying decisions true how will the churches keep the lights on without pandering to
01:33:41.480the female dollar how i i think that's part of where it's going to be the the men are going to
01:33:50.220be a little bit more radicalized and that after the 10-year mark like there's going to just be
01:33:55.020pockets of men that are like this is a holy bullshit i'm sorry yeah like i think it'll be
01:34:02.820A new survey says for every 100 new Catholics, 800 people leave the church.
01:34:10.940No, no, I do believe that a lot of people are seeing the, like you talked about, the feminism reach into the church at this point, and that's kind of what's pushing a lot of people out.
01:34:23.440But there are still currently smaller pockets of people starting to become more, like, orthodox.
01:34:31.100and and i i've even seen some people talk about it in the sense of it's called catholicism but
01:34:37.340i i do believe that it's like i'm 40 i'm not going to see this until i'm like 60 to 65 and
01:34:45.500i i don't have hope for myself in the sense of like being able to have more children because i
01:34:52.680three kids but at the same time like more i'm i've i've kind of tapped out my my role with
01:34:59.780The community that I help out with is to try and help men find some objective moralities versus just the subjective morality type stuff, and I think that's kind of where we're at with a lot of things is we see a lot of subject morality out there.
01:35:18.540that's kind of what feminism is a lot about and as we start to get people to start realizing like
01:35:25.080there is some objective morality and truth about how we maintain and do things we're gonna probably
01:35:31.080see some change after like some true change after the five to ten for now it's just growing
01:35:37.260is the way i see it yeah i i thanks for giving your opinion i do respectfully disagree i just
01:35:44.700i don't think trends happen overnight and i think if that was going to happen we would see
01:35:50.220some indication like church attendance going up which it's not people getting more religious
01:35:56.700which they're not i understand the influencers make you want to like think that but i'm i'm
01:36:03.020telling you if you got gen z like siblings kids they're not going to church true i i can understand
01:36:11.820that like it it i think it's going to be on the individuals to help bring that about i think it's
01:36:20.700still too small from where i'm going with it but yeah well thanks for calling in um doug mp you
01:36:27.100got any other questions for him nope you know that you know i i know you're hopeful a lot of
01:36:33.140the track cons are but you really got to look around man why you got to look around yeah yeah
01:36:39.440i'm i'm doing my best to genuinely try and stay positive for hopefully my kids sake but i don't
01:36:46.240know you can just but you can be positive and be like we're fucked you know yeah yeah
01:36:54.000and if you're just talking about the people you care about and your kids that's fine just make
01:36:58.800sure to put all your focus on them because pearl never said not to be hopeful for yourself and
01:37:04.160you know be a circle but this trying to save society stuff it's cooked it's over with correct
01:37:10.720based based hello thanks before i go i just want to let you guys know that i'm a moderator for
01:37:17.280homeath um he would like to talk to you guys at some point if you ever get a chance oh sure
01:37:23.440he could come on i love that'd be great stuff so yeah um i think he follows me on twitter so
01:37:30.000So if he DMs me, we could set up a time.
02:02:49.880I'm talking, you know, there's a lot of people who might get taken out by something that was in something they put in their body in the last five years.
02:03:01.120There might be sort of time encapsuled components of what a lot of people let themselves take into their body in the last five years.
02:03:13.100Certain time release aspects of that keep taking out more people.
02:03:16.960but what's the mortality rate uh last how many people because the death rate increased a lot in
02:03:26.940the last yes yes and i still don't see anything that you're talking about unseating women's
02:03:37.020selfish desires oh of course not see like piggybacking also on what one of the other
02:03:42.560guys was trying to say but he couldn't articulate it fully obviously women have always been exactly
02:03:47.520the way they are and i have really developed perspectives and consciousness about why they
02:03:54.160are that way but that's way outside of the scope of the present meeting the point is of course
02:03:58.720they've always been this way but what he was trying to say is that men didn't he was saying
02:04:03.520men created them or something he was making he wasn't saying it correctly men have allowed this
02:04:08.400women have always been the way they are they're designed that way its men have allowed certain
02:04:13.440things to go this way and they're obviously hidden hands that have moved from the boomer generation
02:04:22.560and then down into especially the older gen x to allow this permissiveness to become the
02:04:29.120whatever there's a lot of ways that this has been by design but women have been exactly what they
02:04:34.080are since there were women there's no change there's no question about that the point pearl
02:04:39.360was making i don't know if people understood what she was saying about the not factoring in
02:04:44.720uh did the death of infants now that it really isn't the same mostly what's going on has always
02:04:50.880been going on it's exactly the same it might just be being allowed to be seen under a bigger
02:04:56.720magnified lens female nature like it's never changed that's for sure i really see people
02:05:03.360dying like that like i don't know it will it will increase yeah maybe i just i'm looking at
02:05:11.860the rates and it's just not significant enough that i like think it's that crazy or as you said
02:05:18.560before there are definitely people who mask statistics and don't let the real ones get out
02:05:24.380that's that's possible but usually when that happens like i see it in my real life
02:09:32.420so I don't think there's I don't think there's hope not with things the way they are unless it
02:09:41.000really gets to the point where men overwhelmingly band together and I'm not sure if I see that
02:09:46.920happening and say this is it no more we like getting laid too much yeah you ever tried to
02:09:54.580stop a guy from simping impossible yeah oh yeah I know I mean you've called him out for it how
02:10:00.060many times. And you're absolutely right. I love your content because you're like a breath of fresh
02:10:07.500air. Somebody to kind of stand up for us a little bit in a world where we keep getting smacked
02:10:13.320around so darn much. So I don't think, you know, and I think you're realistic about it too. I don't
02:10:18.060think talking about it is going to fix anything per se, but at least we feel a little better
02:10:23.440because we've got a place we can vent and we know we're not alone. That was a big thing.
02:10:28.120I went through 36 years of marriage, four kids.
02:10:34.540My wife decided to leave me after my health went downhill and I was no longer as good a provider.
02:10:40.640And it's a story that, you know, with shows like yours, I hear it repeated.
02:10:44.680So I know I'm not the only guy out there that after putting in, you know, decades of taking care of six people in my household, pretty much on my own, that my reward for it is to die old and alone.
02:10:57.040You know, so. So would you say to young men who what would you say to a young man saying, hey, Brad, what are the odds?
02:11:08.800What could I do to have a 36 plus year long marriage? Is it possible? What can I do?
02:11:15.080I'm aspiring to that. What would you tell him? Well, here's the thing.
02:11:19.120I mean, I didn't realize because my wife, like a lot of women, kind of got into the marriage because she wanted to get out of her parents home.
02:11:27.040And I've seen that. I'm old enough. I've been around enough. And I worked in a job that dealt directly with the public. And it's a pattern I've seen repeated over and over again. Young women after school that were in my generation were looking for a way to get away from their family and to get married.
02:11:44.940It was a way of getting out of the house and having what they thought was a measure of independence.
02:11:49.720And so they just picked the first available guy that looks like he's willing to settle down.
02:11:56.760They get the guy that's settled and it can provide.
02:12:00.360And then they have to keep up a false front.
02:12:02.940It's like the trad cons that Pearl's been talking to and about.
02:12:07.280They put on this fake front, but after a while, they get tired of doing it.
02:12:10.620And society doesn't say that they have to do it.
02:12:12.960And they say, well, you know, why are you putting up with this?
02:12:14.940So then they quit doing it. So I don't think it's it's necessarily possible. I've got a son who's in his he's almost 40 now. His wife got eight kids out of him. And about a year or so ago, she kicked him to the curb.
02:12:33.000because she could get enough financial support from her family who has provided a home for her
02:12:41.340where she doesn't have to pay rent. And of course, with eight kids, you get all kinds
02:12:44.520of government assistance. And she already had apparently a guy on the side that she found that
02:12:50.100was suitable to replace my son. So that was the end of that. And then I've got three daughters
02:12:55.980and each of them have been divorced. And similar situations, at least two of the girls, the oldest
02:13:02.740than the youngest, they got married early, like they left the home a week before they turned 18
02:13:08.540and moved straight in with the family of the boyfriend. And then within a year or so,
02:13:15.640they were pregnant and got married to the guy. And that lasted for a couple of years. And then
02:13:19.860they found themselves somebody they liked better and moved on. And it's just, you know, and that's
02:13:25.840those I raised these people. So it's not, you know, a matter of bad parenting, but the society
02:13:31.500that we live in just does not encourage, you know, long-term monogamy. It does not encourage
02:13:36.840putting in the work. It's, I love how Pearl put it. She said, you know, this world is all about
02:13:42.340the path to happiness for women. And they don't concern themselves about the kid. My grandson,
02:13:49.200my eldest daughter's son, when she put him back in his car seat to go home to her ex-husband,
02:13:56.280he cried. It broke my heart. He's sitting there and the mama, he wanted to stay with mama.
02:14:02.500So I don't it's it's not happening, Doug.
02:14:08.320Because I got a lot of heat because I said one of the comments said that.
02:14:15.800There's many sorry, there's many dads who think they can control what their daughter does, that if they just raise her right, that she won't get divorced, she won't be a hoe.
02:14:26.740Did you have similar thoughts when you were young?
02:14:28.880well yeah i mean i it's you always have these high in the sky kind of pie outlooks on things
02:14:37.940why don't people do this and do that it's so simple until you're faced with it
02:14:41.980i'm sorry i lost your i can see your mouth moving pearl i can't hear you
02:14:47.100no um i didn't say anything i was just listening oh okay it must be a delay in the feed i'm sorry
02:14:53.520Okay, the thought originally was, you know, if I saw somebody else and their kids went, you know, off the path, so to speak, you know, I figured there must have been a simple solution they didn't apply.
02:15:08.120But it also takes two in the household.
02:15:11.040And I came to realize that since I worked a full-time job and then some, I was away from the house a lot.
02:16:42.500so she couldn't open the sash to get out.
02:16:45.860And then it was like, you can't do that if there's a fire.
02:16:48.060will die i said look you're five feet away from from the back door you have an escape route and
02:16:53.900besides that window frame will smash if you take your chair and push it through it but even trying
02:16:59.500to keep them locked in and and a lot of people say oh it's child abuse you can't do that there's
02:17:04.380no control these kids are influenced by their friends they're influenced by the society around
02:17:08.940them and society says be a hoe it's not being a hoe it's being free it's having fun it's having
02:17:14.700a good time one of the things what you're talking about because yeah one thing pearl and i have been
02:17:22.700um pearl has been covering more content about mothers and how much damage mothers can do and
02:17:29.180i told pearl we to focus on hopefully one day that mothers will be judged as harshly as fathers
02:17:35.180because mothers do a whole lot of damage children in a two-parent household are more of a reflection
02:17:42.860of of a mother than a father nowadays i mean look at will smith will smith's oldest child
02:17:50.460is not an alien like jade and willow smith are because they had like a regular woman as a mother
02:17:57.820and jada pickett smith is a freaking demon which is why her kids are crazy but mothers do so much
02:18:05.420more damage but they have that get out of jail free card we we still don't hold mothers to the
02:18:10.780the same level of accountability that we do fathers. And it's sad. Yeah. If I tried to enforce
02:18:16.500any rules of the house, you know, it was just further evidence that I was a meanie and I was
02:18:21.720the enemy and, you know, come to mommy, I'll comfort you. I'll never forget my wife actually
02:18:27.500coming to me and saying, you know, your son wants to do this and that. And I said, well, go ask your
02:18:31.680dad. And he said, I can't, I'm scared. He scares me. And he was like, just dropping into the
02:18:38.380narrative, you know, of hers that dad's a meanie. He won't let you do anything. So, but I will say
02:18:45.360this just real quickly, if I can, that pretty princess thing has really contributed to this
02:18:51.980as well. And that's, you know, where the fathers raise their girls to not have accountability.
02:18:58.560You know, that's a big part of it. I tried not to do that. I really did. And I was just
02:19:01.800recently talking with my middle daughter that I'm on really good terms with.
02:19:05.660And I said, you know, thankfully, you weren't right.
02:19:08.540At least I didn't raise you that way to think that you were privileged simply because you were female and that you were not accountable for what you did.
02:19:17.320I mean, that girl, when she was a toddler, she knocked over a flower pot and she came to us and said, excuse me, I knocked over a flower pot.
02:19:26.700I have spanked myself and I'm putting myself to bed early.
02:19:30.480I have never I have never met a child that did that.
02:19:34.820And so she is like the eagle of justice.
02:19:38.740I mean, she apparently got into a chat on Facebook with the extended family, her siblings and her mother.
02:19:45.740And the youngest one started talking smack about me.
02:19:50.400And she jumped in there and said, you've got no business talking about your dad like that.
02:19:54.300And she stood up for me and defended me tooth and nail.
02:19:57.760And even my ex-wife couldn't say anything.
02:20:04.520And I would not advise, you know, my son, poor guy, eight kids, and I think he's paying something like $1,100 a month in child support.
02:20:12.960And he's working basically fast food kitchen for like, he's hoping to make $19 an hour.
02:20:19.600In hindsight, do you wish that you had divorced her like when you were younger?
02:20:26.940Well, you know, I've had somewhat of that discussion with the middle daughter who's in her mid-30s.
02:20:34.520And, no, she said that she appreciated the fact that there was a certain level of consistency, there was a certain stability in the home, and this was even with her mother and I not getting along at times.
02:20:52.000Yeah, because so many people say, you know, if you're having problems in the marriage and like it becomes vocal, you know, and there's there's verbal disagreements and things like that.
02:21:01.240It's better not to not to put the kids through that stress.
02:21:07.420She says the fact that she had a mom and dad to come home to and that we stayed together at least.
02:21:12.880And this is what people used to do years ago, stayed together for the kids until they were of an age where they could set out on their own.
02:21:19.900I think that the older folks, they knew what they were doing.
02:21:23.700I think that that has more applications than people give it credit for.
02:21:27.080Yeah. Cool. Doug MPA, you got any other questions for him?
02:21:31.960Thank you for calling in, Brad. Really appreciate it.
02:21:36.360If you guys had a way you could put like some instructions up on your YouTube page or something for people, because it was a mystery to me.
02:21:44.220First of all, how to go transition from the YouTube to the Audacity network.
02:22:34.660guys hit that like button and thank you everyone i may have my dad bring me a snack though
02:22:41.480so because i'll bite you naked are you there hey can you hear me
02:22:47.560can you hear me okay or what hey yeah go ahead so uh i just want to make sure i'm not near a fan
02:22:58.800So I just wanted to say that I think there is a reason to have hope, but it might not be exactly what you want.
02:23:07.580The technology that's currently, that looks like it's going to happen with Neuralink is going to make it so you can't really lie effectively if you volunteer to be plugged into this thing.
02:23:20.400And it's not going to be something where you have to get something permanent.
02:23:23.440There's plenty of headsets that you can just put on.
