00:03:24.800 so welcome to the scott adams school everybody today is wednesday april 1st

00:03:32.060 2026 i am erica and marcella is here with me and we have a special news host joining us today

00:03:38.940 it's kyle becker and we're like how do we get to kyle uh so kyle i had to ask chat gpt

00:03:45.980 to give me a rundown on you and i don't know how accurate it is but i will say

00:03:51.600 you have done a lot like i was looking so you you worked um as a writer and associate producer

00:03:58.780 at fox news including on hannity right true okay and that you now run your own news commentary

00:04:06.880 outlets including becker news and the becker brief newsletter and the relentless podcast

00:04:12.160 so it's all so that's a little bit behind the times i'm now a podcast host at explain america

00:04:17.420 on youtube it's a sort of a faster growing uh conservative uh commentary outlet so i do that

00:04:25.260 every day like basically six days a week oh so we you know what we'll put the link in to our

00:04:30.540 show notes so we can steer people to that too. And as I said before, you guys, today is Kyle's

00:04:37.320 birthday. And when I asked him to come on, I mean, he did not even have, he's like, you know what,

00:04:42.000 let's go. Like what, what better thing to do on my birthday? So the other thing too, is I saw that

00:04:49.680 you spent a little bit of time in Russia, which you're equating to having a cup of coffee, a

00:04:54.420 little blip in your life, but that's amazing. What were you doing there? So I was just working

00:04:58.780 on my master's degree and then like i was um working also full-time as a economic uh news

00:05:06.380 journalist so essentially just editing like newswire copy for subscribers and you know uh

00:05:15.340 oil and gas things like that going on nothing nothing too crazy nothing too crazy okay so

00:05:23.020 and the other thing i want to ask you like you're you have a really fun interesting background um

00:05:28.780 So this is what I want to know, because you came from like the corporate news behind the

00:05:34.860 scenes stuff to independent journalism and podcasting where we all sit.

00:05:39.820 And I think most of us get our news from this sort, this kind of a source now.

00:05:43.860 I mean, I haven't turned on the news in years, literally in years.

00:05:48.560 So what can you tell us like kind of behind the curtain between like what goes on like

00:05:55.900 behind the scenes at like a corporate-y news place versus independent journalism, like the

00:06:02.480 restrictions versus the freedom? Like what do you feel now? What did you notice? How has it changed?

00:06:10.200 So of course, in any kind of corporate news environment, you have to be very careful

00:06:14.660 legally. You have to have all of these procedures that are put in place as safeguards to make sure

00:06:19.400 that everything's factual and that everything that goes to air isn't like an attack on some

00:06:24.680 poor schlub who just got mixed up in some news incident and then winds up getting mad

00:06:32.200 that there's distorted coverage or whatever. So you have to be more careful in the corporate

00:06:37.220 news environment. I mean, I'm careful. I take the same kind of approach. Whether it's a public

00:06:42.860 figure, you have a lot more free range, obviously. But you call legal sometimes in a corporate

00:06:50.080 situation you you contact the brain room to add another layer of fact checking that's like

00:06:55.200 separate from your newsroom so you're not getting into confirmation bias so much um and you have

00:07:00.720 like some people who are kind of a little bit adversarial trying to do oh i got you you're

00:07:04.720 wrong about this right you're wrong about this thing so that's one thing um but that obviously

00:07:11.040 introduces a time hurdle so it wasn't such a big deal for me on prime time um because we're doing

00:07:18.720 news commentary wrap up on the day that's what right they settle in and they just like okay

00:07:23.280 wrap up for me the the top four or five stories that are worth talking about knowing about and

00:07:28.160 give us some depth to these stories uh bring in some experts and and and people who are in congress

00:07:34.880 or whatever to talk about it but on uh x for example where i i mainly talk about the news but

00:07:41.920 besides podcasting on YouTube, I would say that it's very nimble. It's so much quicker than I

00:07:49.180 would have ever imagined the news to be. Because when someone who is an eyewitness to a story

00:07:56.040 has video, has some kind of account about what happened, that can go viral within minutes.

00:08:02.580 Somebody who just posts it directly, like a citizen journalist, bam. And then so like,

00:08:07.840 i'm looking at all of this from the point of view um what do people need to see like the sooner the

00:08:15.180 better i would say in a lot of cases of course you have to bet so it just you know you wait a

00:08:20.600 little bit i mean you don't want to pounce still even on social media you don't want to be like

00:08:24.460 just amplifying stuff indiscriminately right but the commentary from people who i i know and respect

00:08:32.400 really heightens that experience because really looking at new stories like oh i didn't know that

00:08:38.600 oh that's a different way to look at it um oh you're right this is like this other event that

00:08:43.720 happened like four or five years ago you know it's deja vu it's all over again you know and then so

00:08:49.020 like that really helps and if you like people who are more like you know um you know from different

00:08:55.000 various expertise where there's legal analysis or um you know citizen journalism you know um

00:09:02.160 so it's it's really made a much better news experience but i think that overall um the

00:09:09.560 corporate media's domination of the news environment was really harmful to our country

00:09:15.240 in a lot of ways i think that we're reforming the media i always had set out with a mission to kind

00:09:21.060 of like don't complain about the media replace the media yeah that's kind of uh i see a lot of

00:09:27.020 people doing that and i'm so like excited when i see you know nick shirley for example who i don't

00:09:33.280 know i mean he broke a few big cases um but those stories were there they were like always there

00:09:39.380 but it seemed for some reason there's a lack of curiosity in the so-called mainstream media when

00:09:46.160 it comes to scandals that impact their beloved party and uh so i think like we're balancing out

00:09:53.260 the confirmation bias. And I always thought it was harmful to journalism in America when people

00:10:00.280 who go on the news or whatever have a false sense of authority. I don't like appeal to authority

00:10:05.880 for the same reasons that I like John Locke and Thomas Jefferson, right? I don't like this fake

00:10:13.180 authority where they're objective. I don't believe in that. I believe in debate. I was on debate team

00:10:19.420 for a little bit for college i believe we all sit down rationally like adults we debate our

00:10:23.140 politicians or our positions the best we can and then we just kind of walk away respectfully and

00:10:29.860 try to absorb now there's like the the respect thing is really what's missing like we're not

00:10:35.680 walking away respectfully it you know because in part uh people are used to being treated like

00:10:43.000 children in our country not like citizens not like independent thinkers that's right and so i like

00:10:48.340 We're smart. We're smart. Just give us some information. We're smart.

00:10:51.880 You can blow me away all the time by how smart they are.

00:10:54.320 Yeah.

00:10:54.920 And, you know, when you treat people like they're intelligent, a lot of times that brings them up.

00:11:00.760 It makes them think more. It makes them feel more like a part of the conversation.

00:11:05.640 You're not talking down to anyone. And so.

00:11:08.300 Right.

00:11:08.620 That's one thing I love about X and these platforms. It's helping to level things a lot more.

00:11:14.160 do you think that it opens it up for misinformation though not from you but from other sources like

00:11:20.320 there's there was uh i fell for one where there was a quote alleged by the video but the video

00:11:27.100 actually didn't have that quote of this person i won't mention names but um do you think that

00:11:32.560 this fast-paced x uh you know media where it like they break the news but their video

00:11:40.320 is possibly from two years ago and not right now. And I jump in on that because isn't that what the

00:11:47.140 media was doing to us all the time? Think about the Charlottesville hoax. The media is the one

00:11:53.860 doing that all the time. I feel like this is just my opinion on it because I can go to X and I can

00:12:02.820 just as rapidly go to like 10 different news sources, which are just citizens, people like

00:12:09.480 a Kyle and see what he's saying. I can see what they're saying. I can see what Cernovich says,

00:12:13.840 whatever, and then make up my own mind. But the news media told us forever that J6 was an

00:12:22.920 insurrection and that Charlottesville hoax was about neo-Nazis. And so that to me is more

00:12:30.180 dangerous because they're the official voice. And like Kyle was saying, these stories that

00:12:38.000 the citizen journalists are breaking have always been out there but nobody gives a shit they just 0.53

00:12:42.640 want their talking point in their paycheck and if you really really love journalism like go find

00:12:49.820 these stories like look at what nick's doing and be like pick a state and go to that state and find

00:12:54.620 the corruption there so that's why i trust the citizens more um than i would ever any news

00:13:02.700 corporation? And Kyle, now you can answer that too, but that gets me.

00:13:06.780 Sure. So what they were trying to do in the mainstream media is create an echo chamber.

00:13:11.580 It's a propaganda technique. It goes back to like public public relations strategy.

00:13:16.220 You repeat, you repeat, repeat, repeat, reinforce. So they would spread a hoax,

00:13:20.540 whether it be Charlottesville or J6 hoaxes that are related to those stories, obviously,

00:13:27.020 and they would never they would very rarely, if ever, go back and correct those.

00:13:30.940 They would just put it out in the ether. That was it. Then they would, you know, drive by media, as Rush Limbaugh used to say.

00:13:36.580 They would just go move on to the next story. Right. So, I mean, and Scott had that great meme that he posted about all of the different hoaxes.

00:13:43.920 Like, if you fell for this, you know, like, you know, take a look at what the media and it was a very impressive list of just like, you know, it's just gobsmacking when you look at it right in front of you.

00:13:54.820 because I remember fighting every one of those hoaxes like, okay, here's the Paul Harvey rest

00:13:59.620 of the story about all of these different hoaxes. And so they're reinforcing that X is very level

00:14:07.960 and sort of egalitarian in a sense. And that means that misinformation can catch fire. But

00:14:13.480 the difference is that I think you get burned a few times. Everybody gets, you know, people get

00:14:18.320 burned occasionally like here and there, whether you're like commenting on something that's kind

00:14:22.840 of distorted, you know, like, oh, it's very provocative, right? And so you're just like,

00:14:28.040 and you watch the video and you go, oh yeah, it fits. And then you go back and it's like, well,

00:14:31.420 20 seconds before he said something different. So it's kind of like out of context or whatever.

00:14:36.940 You know, you get, you know, everybody gets burned in a little bit sometimes, but the difference is

00:14:42.600 that they, you know, what happens when you get burned, you adjust, you get more rigorous with

00:14:48.380 your fact check and get more critical you think oh this video could be ai it could be faked yeah

00:14:54.220 context so it's learning so for me if you go back to like ancient greece uh i know it's a

00:15:01.120 little bit random but let's go back talk about aristotle and he talks about what is a citizen

00:15:05.860 you're participating in society so what is happening is with x it's kind of a civil society

00:15:12.460 and that we're participating in journalism we're not being told like you know moses bringing down

00:15:17.140 the 10 commandments and you know here's here's the here's the news now that's not happening

00:15:22.180 anymore we're participating in the news um together and it's bringing us more into a society

00:15:28.800 of of critical thinkers and um the better we do that as a community of just independent jews i i

00:15:37.100 that word's used misused sometimes but as a collective let's maybe it's a better word

00:15:41.460 independent journalists. It has a good spill down effect. And I think when you look at Gen Z and

00:15:48.940 their attitudes, if you look at a polling, they're much more skeptical of everything

00:15:52.640 because they're seeing this play out where we're arguing. They're not getting this top down

00:15:57.500 authority from the news as much anymore. They're seeing that it's kind of a battlefield of

00:16:02.720 narratives or whatever. So what does this mean for Gen Z? I think it means that they're very 0.80

00:16:07.240 skeptical but i also uh think that um we need to balance that out with more like um a national

00:16:14.740 like this is the way i feel more of a national identity where we embrace values again you know

00:16:20.640 like um freedom of thought freedom of religion um and that's kind of one of the big stories this

00:16:27.280 week obviously played into like freedom yeah yeah we're gonna cover that too um that i think it's

00:16:33.520 such a good talk like i appreciate this whole opening uh dialogue because you know i i think

00:16:39.440 the what ifs what if elon didn't get twitter you know what if twitter was still under control of

00:16:48.440 the fbi and um the left like i mean literally one day i i got suspended so many times on twitter

00:16:58.760 for literally, I mean, yes, I can be mouthy, but I never said anything nutty like that. I would

00:17:04.120 ever need to be suspended for. I mean, when Mike Pence was running for president or whatever. Yeah.

00:17:11.140 And, um, he was so bad and whatever I said, Oh, stick a fork in them. He's done. They banned me

00:17:18.140 for trying to threaten him. Like I was like, do you people understand nuance? I'm not saying stick

00:17:24.220 a fork in Mike Pence. It's a saying, stick a fork in him. He's done. Anyway. But that's just how

00:17:32.360 censored we were. So thank God for Elon on so many levels and for everybody that had to suffer

00:17:40.120 along the way. I mean, a lot of people getting canceled, we will not forget you. Okay. So I am

00:17:47.400 going to just very, very lightly go over this story because I can just picture Scott laughing

00:17:56.820 at Marco Rubio's new job. So again, stick it on my head. So reports surfaced this week claiming

00:18:06.120 that Kristi Noem's husband, Byron Noem, had allegedly been participating in a private online

00:18:13.080 fetish community involving cross-dressing and exaggerated bimbo-ification role play. 0.96

00:18:21.660 So anyway, I'm not going to go on too much more about it. I only bring up this story to show you

00:18:27.540 Marco Rubio's new job. And here it is. The man can do anything. So Marco, thank you for being

00:18:36.980 a patriot and taking one for the team. You are a gem. And I think, I think he wears it well.

00:18:44.620 So, and I could just hear Scott's jokes and like, I know all of you probably have dad jokes and

00:18:50.700 everything else that would have been so funny. And, but I, I saw that Marco meme this morning

00:18:56.080 and I'm like, I'm in. Okay. So, all right. One story I want to kick off with, because we just

00:19:01.140 mentioned jayden so um kyle can you just give me like a like a one sentence thing about what's

00:19:08.620 going on i want to play the clip and then we'll come back and discuss what's happening

00:19:12.160 so this nba team the chicago bulls they waived a young player named jayden ivy um after uh his

00:19:20.780 religious views his pro-christian criticism of pride month surfaced so that's the setup

00:19:27.580 Oh, boy. OK, so here's Jaden talking on a live stream.

00:19:57.580 teammate to them. Said, good job. Good shot. I said, I said, uh, uh, good job. Good job. Good

00:20:06.300 pass. Way to play, bro. Right. I said these things to my teammates was never detrimental to them.

00:20:15.340 So why is it that the NBA and the Chicago Bulls say that I'm detrimental to the team?

00:20:19.820 How? Because I believe in the truth? Because I know Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life?

00:20:34.540 How? How is my conduct detrimental to the team? Because of what I believe. Because of what the truth is.

00:20:43.340 so that gives you a good sampling that broke my heart when i watched that there's a few clips like

00:20:50.100 that and i feel so bad you know it's like uh like he's right he was a probably a perfect teammate

00:20:58.080 but they don't like his values and his personal opinion so is that is that where we're at with

00:21:03.060 this yeah it that for the most part that's true i think there's a possibility we see more to the

00:21:09.000 story come out. Jaden Ivey, obviously, he's very outspoken Christian, and he had some

00:21:14.580 questions about Pride Month. And I mean, we have to think about this. This is an entire month

00:21:19.680 donated to celebrating, not just tolerating, but celebrating LGBTQ. So this may feel like

00:21:27.900 to some Christians, like you're speaking for me, like you are celebrating this for me. Whereas,

00:21:33.560 you know my the the bible that i read has a different you know perspective on all of this

00:21:39.220 and i and i go with the bible and not what the league says so this is the problem with these

00:21:44.000 sports leagues amplifying woke politics not they are trying to act like all the players agree with

00:21:49.860 it and they try to silence uh those players who speak up and and this is a very extreme action to

00:21:56.000 waive a player for questioning pride month and i and i try not to overstate this but

00:22:02.440 the goal of the left is a type of totalitarianism and and i'm not saying that lightly or to be

00:22:07.760 sensationalistic i've studied a lot of this stuff you know and uh i think that a lot of americans

00:22:13.540 uh culturally speaking we're like fish who don't even know we're wet when it comes to cultural

00:22:18.740 marxism i don't think that people know what it means but it's essentially anti-god and anti-family

00:22:24.680 and if you go back to black lives matter and all those rights go back to what the founders

00:22:28.640 They like Patrice Galores and all that said about it. They are explicitly anti-family and anti-Christian. And so Jaden Ivey, he's a Christian and he spoke out and they didn't feel comfortable what he said.

00:22:42.520 The way they tried to spin it is very reminiscent to me of what they did in the Soviet Union. Whenever you disagree with the Bolsheviks and like they couldn't get their hands on you, they just said you were crazy.

00:22:52.620 And then in some cases, they did institutionalize people in mental asylums for disagreeing with Marxism, okay?

00:23:00.140 But there were some players who are Christians who I know who spoke up on his behalf and posted Bible verses and, you know, positive Bible verses and talking about being persecuted for Christ's sake, essentially.

00:23:12.720 Travion Henderson, a running back with the Patriots.

00:23:14.920 He is not going to get cut by the Patriots for saying a Christian thing, right?

00:23:19.960 He's a very good player.

00:23:22.060 He's recognized in the league as one of the better running backs.

00:23:25.600 But his coach even had to, like, throw cold water on him.

00:23:28.160 You have to wonder, you know, Vrabel, Coach Vrabel, he was like, well, we have to make sure we're being inclusive.

00:23:35.220 Well, they're being exclusive of Christians, period. 0.97

00:23:38.740 That's true, yeah.

00:23:39.560 So the way that these sports leagues have been weaponized as an arm of the left is something that, you know, a lot of people who follow these sports are very sensitive to it.

00:23:51.340 We recognize it. You know, the NBA's ratings is down.

00:23:54.300 And that has been something that's went on since COVID.

00:23:58.140 They started the full on Black Lives Matter thing kneeling. 0.70

00:24:01.200 A lot of this, whether you agree or not, of course, Black Lives Matter.

00:24:04.960 This is an argument against exactly nobody.

00:24:07.020 And it's actually an accusation against people who disagree with the left that you don't care about black people. That is not the case. The problem is you are lying. You are lying about homicides like police shootings, for example.

00:24:21.020 there was a black harvard economist uh ronald freyer i believe he went to the new york times

00:24:26.380 published an exhaustive analysis of this said there's no when you when you adjust for for

00:24:31.340 incidents there's no racial bias when it comes to police shootings and of course they couldn't

00:24:37.200 handle that so think of all the damage black communities um sending them on fire over lies 0.70

00:24:45.300 and so they they're lost a lot of americans and punishing someone like jaden ivy just confirms

00:24:50.680 once again that these these sports leagues are ideologically captured yeah let me get marcella

00:24:56.660 in here marcella do you have a take on this so to me jaden ivy is under contract his contract

00:25:03.020 probably indicates that he's not supposed to talk about these things so to me um i know that there's

00:25:09.700 this argument of first amendment rights but as you know when you have an employer and you have

00:25:15.100 a contract and you're under contract that's different you don't have that freedom of speech

00:25:20.260 that you would as a private citizen um where he was arguing it with them um so i i see their side

00:25:30.500 as well um if he you know i feel like he's just trying to get um attention you know um i i see

00:25:43.160 that some of the people think that jayden ivy is not such a good player um and that he may just be

00:25:49.780 trying to get attention. Now, I agree with him. He has a right to say that. And it's great to hear,

00:25:55.960 um, you know, Jesus Christ being put up there. Um, but at the same time, I can see the NBA side

00:26:03.920 of the story. Um, but there needs to be a change for the NBA and we vote with our, um, with our

00:26:10.740 views, you know, so we're not watching the NBA. Um, you know, but I think what Scott would say,

00:26:17.360 and he would always bring this up the michael jordan would never talk politics because he

00:26:22.640 wanted everybody to buy his shoes um so i don't know why the nba is getting into pride month to

00:26:30.400 begin with because it's it's pushing away people from watching so um i'm at the point now where i

00:26:39.200 see a pride flag and i walk away because i'm like oh my god i'm so over it like i don't care what 0.51

00:26:45.920 anyone's doing in their personal life but all right already like shut up so like why are you 0.85

00:26:52.320 so special excuse me um yeah so listen striking thing for me for me um is that we have pride month

00:27:02.640 but we have the fourth of july like one day are they saying pride month is more important than

00:27:09.440 memorial day i have a hard time wrapping my mind around all of this if the message was simply you

00:27:15.280 you had one day, you're trying to be more inclusive. I'm not against that on its face

00:27:20.880 to be more tolerant and to be more caring and considerate and see like your fellow Americans,

00:27:27.200 they may have different lifestyle than you. And we live in a free society. So that's okay.

00:27:32.980 That would be one thing. But in the entire month, it's a little bit trying to stick your thumb.

00:27:38.520 you're right but i also don't need my nba or my nfl or nbl to be celebrating these months i don't

00:27:46.360 need that i need the i need to watch the games and that's it you know i'm a great sports fan

00:27:51.480 thinking about it without thinking about the politics that's why i go to sports so that i

00:27:56.840 and everybody else does so they're not thinking iran they're not thinking pride month you know

00:28:01.560 it's like it doesn't make sense do the michael jordan thing that's yes let's be michael jordan

00:28:07.800 please be like mike be like mike let's go and and like marcella said you know vote with your views

00:28:15.000 don't support it don't buy their gear don't you know or buy the gear of that one guy if you like

00:28:19.880 his stance but i i wish all i wish all like public things like that would just stop like just stop

00:28:27.560 let us freaking breathe let us enjoy something like if you ask me whether larry bird was a

00:28:34.040 christian or not i wouldn't know mike magic johnson wouldn't know because they didn't use

00:28:38.520 to talk about these things that's why people were so into it because they didn't we don't you know

00:28:43.960 we do care for christian values and all that to be spread but at the same time mba is not there for

00:28:50.920 that you know i haven't gone to a movie or watched like any of these like oh you're watching this on

00:28:56.280 no because i know everyone's freaking opinion i don't want to know your opinion i just want you

00:29:01.000 to be that character for me to entertain me so i cannot think about all this other stuff

00:29:05.620 but like do you like oh like i mean punchy de niro is making me so mad because he's in so many

00:29:12.940 of my favorite films and i'm like oh you know like you're ruining everything you're ruining

00:29:18.560 your own legacy you're ruining your own industry and really they have destroyed hollywood i mean

00:29:23.700 Somebody is getting me going. Don't, don't let me mention Steve Kerr. Like he, he doesn't get banned from the NBA, but he's a coach of the Golden State Warriors. And he, at his pressers, always talks badly about Trump, always talks badly, all these political things.

00:29:42.980 But yet this guy, Jaden Ivey, gets hammered for this, but yet all the other players that are on the right side of their views, the woke side, they never get censored.

00:29:56.380 By the way, we're a Christian founded country. And, you know, we're we like, you know, we see you. He'll be back. But like we see you. And I just I do wish like anywhere that the public spends their money and time that they would just, you know, have some consideration for how we feel and to stop with the shenanigans.

00:30:17.120 okay let's move on to a different story anywho um so if that doesn't enrage you enough i have

00:30:25.060 another clip um so kyle oh here he comes okay so here's another clip um this is vodka pelosi as

00:30:35.820 some people call her i'm giving you a warning in case you want to plug your ears this is not ai

00:30:40.440 this is our beloved Nancy Pelosi and listen to what she is saying about

00:30:45.720 elections and voting. Shocking. We always have concerns but with this

00:30:52.120 president and these Republicans who have no commitment to the rule of law and

00:30:58.200 doing things the appropriate way, we're ready. We have three purposes now. One is

00:31:04.480 to win the midterms. Two is to make sure the elections are safe and three to

00:31:10.420 tell people what we will do when we win and that is that that is the mission the all there's so

00:31:18.340 many things that you can do to protect the election and they are being done whether it's

00:31:25.380 litigation or legislation or just mobilization communication all that but in addition to that

00:31:34.020 we have to be on guard as to what they may try to do to the technology

00:31:38.740 They may try to creep into the technology and create a false count.

00:31:44.660 How do you guard against that?

00:31:45.700 That's a challenge.

00:31:48.940 Oh, why would she think creeping into the technology?

00:31:53.860 That's so interesting.

00:31:54.940 And the rule of law.

00:31:57.060 Oh, she is fascinating.

00:31:59.340 All right, Marcella, you take this first because I have to calm down.

00:32:03.140 It's interesting that she comes out with they do have a plan.

00:32:08.740 So there is backroom talks between them and the rest of them.

00:32:14.480 You know, they always deny it.

00:32:17.140 I think she's afraid of losing.

00:32:19.720 And that's a good sign to me that she's out there. 0.93

00:32:23.980 Remember, as Scott would call her, the designated liar. 0.94

00:32:28.500 She's one of the designated liars that goes out there and gives their propaganda going. 1.00

00:32:33.880 But what what interests me is that she is afraid to lose, you know, and she's already trying to prime us to for the loss and to claim that the loss was because of voter fraud, which is interesting because they always claim Trump, you know, talks about voter fraud and how unconstitutional that is and how horrible that is.

00:33:02.260 but now they're using that same tactic. Interesting, right? Yeah. So I want to point

00:33:09.640 out, does anyone else notice that she has the same weird mannerisms as her nephew, Gavin Newsom,

00:33:16.980 like with the hands that don't make sense with what she's saying? Anyway.

00:33:21.520 His hands. His hands. Inarrated. Kyle, what's your take?

00:33:27.540 So I would like to sit down with Nancy Pelosi and get a few appletinis in her and convince her that we have to pass the Save America Act to stop Trump from cheating in this upcoming election. 1.00

00:33:39.440 And I think we need more election integrity.

00:33:42.300 I'm not sure if she'd buy that.

00:33:43.160 Maybe a few deep, you know, I could persuade her to jump on board. 0.99

00:33:48.740 But I'm old enough to remember when being an election denier got you thrown off of social media.

00:33:55.000 I think there were maybe millions of people who had questions about the 2020 election, and a lot of them were silenced and censored.

00:34:04.040 But I've never seen a Democrat ever punished for being an election denier, whether it's Stacey Abrams or Hillary Clinton or Pelosi in this case.

00:34:13.940 Right.

00:34:14.740 So their playground only goes one way.

00:34:18.020 And if Democrats don't cheat, it's odd that Jazzy, little Jazzy Crockett, was insinuating that her Democrat opponent cheated.

00:34:28.460 So are you admitting Democrats cheat, Jazzy?

00:34:31.120 Well, if you're not cheating, you're not trying.

00:34:32.800 That's the way they do it.

00:34:33.500 Yeah, I know.

00:34:34.440 Look at it.

00:34:35.300 And Gavin Newsom freaking out about voter IDs yesterday was precious. 0.57

00:34:40.800 uh i mean he got ratioed big time because everybody has gotten to the point where if you

00:34:46.820 can't support the most basic of election safeguards and that's just voter ids of some kind 0.99

00:34:51.560 or like a real id that you can use as a voter id um that's kind of the the tell as they call it

00:34:58.820 you know i don't know if you play poker but you know you got tells that's the tell uh the tell

00:35:03.320 is that they are very uncomfortable with election safeguards like you see in 176 nations on earth

00:35:08.580 I mean, they call it Jim Crow 2.0, but African nations have stricter election safeguards than

00:35:14.160 we do. So it's not about race. And they use the talking point about women. Women are suddenly 1.00

00:35:20.440 incapable of doing basic paperwork. Well, in most of the countries on earth, women have to have 1.00

00:35:26.580 voter IDs. So I don't understand why American women are so much dumber than we are. We're 1.00

00:35:33.100 inferior. Yeah. I know. I still don't know how to tie my shoes. It's crazy. It's a miracle I get

00:35:42.000 through a day, honestly. Oh my gosh. Yeah. So it's just more of the same. I don't know what I wish.

00:35:50.600 I wish that we could just stop talking about the next election just for one day ever, any year,

00:35:57.640 any time. It's like constantly like the next thing, the next thing. And now it's like,

00:36:03.100 these election cycles never stop and we're so freaking fatigued and that's why you know this

00:36:08.840 has become like a a team sport it's like always in our face i'm over it um yeah in my in my perfect

00:36:15.280 world we would disband washington dc because it's not needed anymore we don't need a central

00:36:20.200 location for all of these politicians to meet in secret i mean uh you know there's always a what

00:36:26.500 what is it uh adam smith talked about anytime you have a leads meeting in secret uh it leads to a

00:36:31.560 conspiracy against the public and uh so that would be one and the others we would do a lot more

00:36:36.340 like referendum just ask us we will we will do it online we will say yes or no yes i want a button

00:36:44.860 at my house and i am whoever wants to participate like give us a button like on um american idol or

00:36:52.780 one of those shows where it's like okay you know go to your computer and here's the issues open

00:36:59.520 today uh that we're voting on and whenever you want you go to your computer you click yes no yeah

00:37:06.320 yeah you can represent yourself now you don't need to designate all of these representatives

00:37:10.960 to go speak for you because a lot of times they aren't speaking for you they're not speaking for

00:37:14.800 anybody except for themselves and their lobbyists yeah so why can't we vote ourselves it's not you

00:37:20.240 know the 1800s we can do it online and i'm sure there's a way to do it right marcella we can do

00:37:25.760 this there's a thing called the constitution but i would have had to get an amendment we'll get a

00:37:32.320 convention together yeah we would need a convention back together we'll uh we'll figure it out i mean

00:37:37.760 it's doable yes so i'm sure it will change eventually so i hope we're here to see it what

00:37:45.040 i was gonna say is that one of the interesting things that i don't know why whatever kyle was

00:37:49.920 saying reminded me of this you're talking about washington dc and not needed tmc is actually

00:37:55.040 going to start reporting on scandals in washington dc so you know they were focused just on hollywood

00:38:03.120 and stars or whatever it is but now they're actually gonna go and report on scandals kind of

00:38:10.160 like the one that you talked about earlier uh about her uh noam's husband and things like that

00:38:18.400 so we're gonna say yeah hollywood's dead nobody cares about celebrities anymore we don't care i

00:38:24.640 don't care nobody cares i don't even know who they are i don't care um oh look who's coming

00:38:29.920 we got owen coming in and the other thing is um if it's an equal opportunity scandal reporting and

00:38:38.560 not just trump because they love to bash trump i'm all for it no no they said that they would um

00:38:45.760 they're going to do everybody equally are you and uh kyle at the same library

00:38:51.920 it's true i don't think they're uh i don't think that they're uh repping my book at that library

00:39:00.080 but that's true that's true welcome owen hello sorry no no we're so happy you could jump in

00:39:08.160 with us here so all right so let's since owen's here um marcella actually i did want to come to

00:39:16.540 you for like the next news story i want you to just um choose one that you had for us because

00:39:21.300 you had a list of good ones um and let's let's dive into something else so um in regards to iran

00:39:29.300 uh before coming on um i was gonna say donald like i know him president trump you know donald

00:39:38.580 um came out and said that iran's new regime president is much less radicalized and far

00:39:45.140 more intelligent than his predecessors he doesn't tell us who he is it has just asked the united

00:39:49.940 States of America for a ceasefire. We'll consider when Hormuz Strait is open, free and clear.

00:39:56.220 Until then, he said, we're blasting Iran into oblivion, or as they say, back to the Stone Age

00:40:01.940 ages. So it seems the Strait of Hormuz is the big trading, the ball that they're throwing around.

00:40:13.900 But I know that Kyle wanted to talk about this and you wanted to talk about this too, that

00:40:18.860 Trump had come out and said that he needed two or three more weeks.

00:40:24.700 Yeah, I have a clip I can play about that.

00:40:26.900 All right, let's go to the clip.

00:40:27.980 I'm so clippy today.

00:40:29.280 Okay, here we go.

00:40:30.680 I would say that within two weeks, maybe two weeks, maybe three, we're hitting them very

00:40:36.640 hard.

00:40:36.960 Last night, we knocked out tremendous amounts of missile making facilities, as you probably

00:40:42.160 read or wrote.

00:40:44.280 We knocked out, excuse me?

00:40:46.060 Pardon me if you're interrupting. The U.S. will be gone or done with the war?

00:40:49.600 I think we're two or three weeks. We'll leave. There's no reason for us to do this.

00:40:54.700 Look, problem with the strait, a guy can take a mine, drop it in the water and say, oh, it's unsafe.

00:41:01.040 It's not like you're taking out an army or you're taking out a country or you can drop it.

00:41:05.880 Or you can take a machine gun from the shore and shoot a little few bullets on a ship or maybe an over the shoulder missile, small missiles.

00:41:13.560 that's not for us that'll be for france that'll be for whoever's using this trade but i think

00:41:21.920 when we leave probably that's all cleared up today i heard tremendous numbers of ships were

00:41:26.300 sailing through we're negotiating with them right now they've been again we have had regime change

00:41:32.860 now regime change was not one of the things i had as a goal i had one goal they will have no nuclear

00:41:38.840 weapon and that goal has been attained they will not have nuclear weapons but we're finishing the

00:41:45.200 job and i think within maybe two weeks maybe a couple of days longer to do the job but we want

00:41:52.360 to knock out every single thing they have now it's possible that we'll make a deal before that

00:41:57.540 because we'll hit bridges and we've hit some we'll hit some bridges we've got a couple of

00:42:01.800 nice bridges in mind but if they come to the table that'll be good but it doesn't matter

00:42:08.400 whether they're coming out. We've set them back. It'll take 15 to 20 years for them to rebuild

00:42:13.820 what we've done to them. They have no Navy. They have no military. They have no Air Force. They

00:42:19.580 have no telecommunications. They have no anti-aircraft systems. They have no leaders.

00:42:24.620 You know, their leaders are all gone. That's why we have regime change. We have nice new leaders.

00:42:29.940 All right. Nice new leaders. So Marcella or Owen, whoever wants to touch on that first,

00:42:37.720 I mean, that was quite the rundown he gave there about what he's taken out, and I hope things are going well, and I hope that we could leave and that France and Europe will pick up where we left off handling with those little missiles off your shoulders.

00:42:56.060 So I'll come to you first, Owen.

00:42:57.760 So what do you think about what he was saying there?

00:42:59.820 So the motivation behind what he's saying, I think, is to reassure the stock market, to reassure people about the economy, to keep oil prices from spiking too high.

00:43:09.720 Because if he said anything else, like, oh, we're going to be there until September, you know, everybody would panic and the stock market would drop and the oil prices would shoot through the roof and, you know, everybody would be screaming about it.

00:43:21.760 So I think a lot of his statements about this is saying there is an end date.

00:43:25.680 It's not far away, but we're not there yet.

00:43:27.260 Mm hmm. And, you know, saying we're two or three weeks away might be a little bit like what Scott used to say about how future technologies. Oh, it's always 10 years out. Yeah. But I do think it's likely that it probably would end in that time frame because I think, you know, the same motivation he has. It's not just a temporary thing like he is trying to talk the market up and talk oil down.

00:43:49.100 but i think he knows that if he stayed in iran and kept bombing and did ground invasions and

00:43:54.640 had a big you know if it turned into like another iraq or afghanistan that that would ruin our

00:44:00.400 economy it would ruin the oil prices it would ruin everything and midterms and everything else so i

00:44:05.540 think um to me i think it is sincere i think he is probably planning to wrap it up in the next

00:44:12.000 couple weeks and um you know i don't know what will be left at that point i mean i do i do believe

00:44:18.940 that we've knocked out most of their capabilities for nuclear and that we've knocked out most of

00:44:24.780 their missile so it's getting the uranium now right so that's what that's the goal but then

00:44:31.880 so if he says then we leave do the ground troops leave like does everybody leave yeah i mean well

00:44:39.000 i mean that's what he said i'm not sure if that's true um you know maybe that they just sort of sit

00:44:44.280 there and watch for a while to make sure that nothing big happens and i i do have questions

00:44:48.660 about that whole iranium operation because you know what we heard after that first strike midnight

00:44:53.900 hammer was okay they they're never going to be able to get down to that stuff it's buried it's

00:45:00.000 you know inaccessible but if they're saying we can go in and go grab it like in a matter of weeks

00:45:06.200 or some short period of time,

00:45:07.860 then you would think Iran would have that same capability.

00:45:11.540 And so it certainly is a big question in my mind to say,

00:45:13.860 if it's really that easy to go dig all of it out,

00:45:16.720 then I would be worried that Iran still has that capability.

00:45:19.980 And as soon as we leave,

00:45:20.980 they might just get out their excavators and go dig it up.

00:45:24.360 Yeah, that's what I kind of was thinking too.

00:45:26.320 But I imagine the, what do we call this?

00:45:29.340 The bomb that would have to go like straight down like that.

00:45:32.460 That would be, I can't even imagine it.

00:45:34.160 But Marcella, I want to have you jump in here. 0.98

00:45:37.280 Thank you for letting me jump in for a minute.

00:45:39.800 Where have I heard two weeks and then it will be over?

00:45:44.960 To slow the spread?

00:45:46.620 To slow the spread.

00:45:48.340 Yeah, to me, I mean, I'm a Trump lover, as everybody knows.

00:45:52.140 But to me, it sounds very, you can never escape the Middle East. 0.97

00:45:57.120 That's like, it's like a black hole that sucks you in.

00:46:00.380 And so I'm hopeful that it will be two to three more weeks.

00:46:05.780 But I am like Owen said, he might be doing this for the market, but I don't know.

00:46:11.180 What does Kyle think?

00:46:13.380 All right.

00:46:13.740 So let me preface this.

00:46:16.880 You know, I'm not trying to like I'm like an international relations guy by trading.

00:46:21.380 I was like in a doctoral school for international relations compared to politics.

00:46:25.200 Middle East was not my forte. But just I'm a lot more dispassionate about all of this than I think a lot of people are. And I totally let people just, you know, disagree. Like, please be, you know, if you want to be doomer about this or whatever, I'm totally fine. I totally get it because I have buddies who went to war. I mean, my son went to war in Afghanistan. I have buddies who went to war in Iraq. They are very negative about all this.

00:46:49.140 And I am against foreign interventionism in the main. I just do not see the dynamics of this Iranian war being similar to Iraq or Afghanistan that much. I think it's much different because of they have a diaspora, like in other words, millions of Iranians live abroad that are against the regime.

00:47:09.120 you didn't have that with iraq or afghanistan a lot of iranian intellectuals there's like shadow

00:47:13.940 government uh i saw thousands of them at cpac here near grapevine like out in force um and in 19

00:47:22.040 before like the revolution in 1979 they had a you know not perfect but they had pro-western shaw

00:47:27.680 much different society and a lot of people still remember that like they remember that you had

00:47:33.540 none of that on Iraq or Afghanistan. They never had anything like that. Um, so when, if Trump goes

00:47:41.300 in, you know, scorched earth, decapitates the regime to a large extent, destroys their military

00:47:47.580 capacity, wipes out their nuclear, uh, nuclear, uh, enrichment operations. And, uh, we can return

00:47:56.320 the Strait of Hormuz. You know, this is very tricky diplomatically. And I give Marco Rubio

00:48:00.380 a lot of credit uh if we can get that running again it's a net win for the world i'm also an

00:48:06.760 idealist so let me preface that i just think they're a very evil regime and and i and i

00:48:12.020 particularly their export of terrorism has killed americans um there are feud with iran predates

00:48:19.940 any of this talk about israel and aipac so like there's a disconnect for me with a lot of people

00:48:25.100 who try to bring up the Israel lobby aspect of this.

00:48:29.360 I appreciate it.

00:48:30.420 I recognize it.

00:48:31.140 I know it's there.

00:48:32.720 But for me, it doesn't discredit the operation

00:48:36.860 to benefit allies in the region.

00:48:39.900 And it's not just Israel.

00:48:41.840 There's also Qatar and UAE to some extent, Bahrain, et cetera.

00:48:49.280 So I think the Middle East will be much better 1.00

00:48:50.940 in the future moving forward.

00:48:52.140 It'll be a safer place for Americans ultimately.

00:48:55.100 if this all plays out. But you have to hand the ball off to the Iranians. And that could happen 1.00

00:49:00.740 in two to three weeks. It could get very messy there. The issue there, and I think a lot of

00:49:05.220 people are rightfully nervous about that, is if we intervene again with boots on the ground,

00:49:11.520 like after it gets messy. So what do you think about all the statements from those Middle 0.91

00:49:16.400 Eastern countries? I mean, some of them I think are still rumors, but like Saudi Arabia and UAE,

00:49:20.920 I think there was a story recently that UAE actually entered the war in some way and that they were somehow lobbying Trump to keep going.

00:49:28.800 Yeah, that's true.

00:49:29.740 And I mean, the Iranians didn't really do themselves any favor by lobbying missiles into the region. 0.60

00:49:35.860 And they fired off what looked like an ICBM type missile a couple of weeks ago.

00:49:41.840 This has to alarm a lot of a lot of, you know, countries like Saudi Arabia that you that you mentioned, UAE.

00:49:49.000 So they're all they're all on board.

00:49:51.640 They just want to see a successful resolution to all of this.

00:49:54.440 I don't think Trump is willing to do it by himself.

00:49:57.640 I just don't see that in his political DNA.

00:50:02.080 I don't there's nothing suggested to me that Trump wants to like go there

00:50:06.440 and nation build or control the regime.

00:50:10.320 He said in that clip that he wanted to destroy the nuclear

00:50:13.800 enrichment operations, the nuclear to get rid of the nuclear weapons

00:50:18.240 possibility. I don't think he's bluffing. I think that is the ultimate objective. And it's not to

00:50:24.100 babysit a country in the Middle East at the expense of his domestic agenda. It would be 0.89

00:50:29.920 immensely unpopular. It would cost the Republicans the midterms for sure. And it would be a blot on

00:50:36.960 his legacy. Trump really cares about his brand. He cares about how he's perceived. And I think

00:50:42.220 this is a real pressure point. In addition to the fact he's criticized the Iraq war in the past and

00:50:48.020 got a lot of support for that so i think cares about his legacy yeah if trump does pull out in

00:50:54.100 two or three weeks and then israel decides you know we're not done um because they've said that

00:51:01.280 they might continue um i know it's gone back and forth a little bit in those statements because

00:51:05.780 i think they made a statement that it's more than halfway over or something

00:51:08.480 um but netanyahu you know reportedly at least allegedly has a lot of reasons to keep war going

00:51:14.000 um but now that the the other middle eastern regions countries are are saying you know we're

00:51:20.680 ready to join and support this do you think you could have an alliance between israel and

00:51:26.120 the middle east to go after irana after trump is gone after the americans pull out yeah i mean in

00:51:31.600 international relations you see that that all the time that countries that otherwise have nothing

00:51:36.180 in common they have a joint uh mission in uh a war or a military conflict and they they band

00:51:44.040 together um but ultimately that it gets into a trick a situation where there's uh bandwagoning

00:51:51.360 and free riding and like like we say the thing with france where they're trying to free ride all

00:51:56.940 we've been uh dealing with this problem of free riders for a long time in the united states because

00:52:03.280 who are the strongest. And so all of these countries, this tried it. Well, let the Americans

00:52:06.920 pay the sacrifice. I think that Trump is in, you know, pivoting to where he's trying to get these

00:52:12.980 other countries in the region to realize it's in your country's best interest in terms of long

00:52:17.960 term security that you enter this war. And like I said, the Iranians lobbing missiles at their

00:52:23.440 neighbors, maybe one of the worst things they could have done, because at that point, it's not

00:52:28.940 just the United States and Israel versus Iran. Iran is threatening the entire region. And they're 1.00

00:52:33.720 kind of proving the point about why they should never have nuclear weapons. Look how reckless that

00:52:37.460 is. There's always been kind of perceptive about Iran. It's like maybe they're a litmus test of

00:52:43.900 the madman theory. That's where you don't have mutually assured destruction doesn't apply to

00:52:50.580 these ideological fanatics who are apocalyptic. And they would rather nuke their neighbors than

00:52:57.600 lose power. And so that is kind of, if you see the uprising and the way that they cracked down

00:53:04.620 on it earlier this year, they killed 30, 35,000 people. It's kind of suggested that they're very

00:53:10.340 desperate to hang onto this old regime. I'm talking about an Islamic based regime. They're 1.00

00:53:16.760 very desperate to hold onto this. And that combination with a nuclear weapon of any kind,

00:53:24.280 even a dirty bomb i think people get a little bit too imaginative about this and thinking about like

00:53:29.160 you know three or four stage icb no we're not i'm not even talking about that but even just

00:53:33.960 like dirty bombs it's very dangerous and uh he trump doesn't want to be responsible for hundreds

00:53:42.040 of thousands if not millions of people winding up being killed because the iranians don't want to

00:53:46.280 lose power so kyle we only have you know a few minutes left and i i think a lot of people are

00:53:51.880 also concerned about what's happening here on our soil with sleeper cells and things like that like

00:53:59.320 what what's your take on that as a an effect well we saw here in texas um you know uh you know a guy

00:54:07.320 who was loyal to the iranian regime went into a nightclub uh killed over a dozen or i shot over a

00:54:11.800 dozen people and killed uh a couple of them i think one of them went to icu i think it was

00:54:17.000 three people ultimately. But the idea of them using sleeper cell agents is something to be

00:54:26.560 concerned about. But I think that there's, I really think objectively they're on the ropes

00:54:30.900 over there. And we've only had a few of those incidents in the United States.

00:54:37.120 I think that's probably less than maybe some analysts might've expected, might've seen more

00:54:43.360 of it so far. I think if it would have been a big problem, it would have manifested itself

00:54:49.640 before now. They would have activated them. You think? You don't think they're still

00:54:53.460 sleeping and they're going to sleep? There could be a few of them out there for sure,

00:54:57.160 but I believe that the pressure, the leverage that they might have gotten from that is

00:55:02.940 dissipating. They're getting diminishing returns very quickly at this point. I'm not expert at

00:55:11.080 these types of operations but i think like the leverage point would have been before now like

00:55:18.040 they would have because it's a series of terrorism is like a series of escalating events like this

00:55:23.920 event that happened in texas and uh would have been compounded like maybe every weekend it would

00:55:30.260 have happened like you know i don't want to get into details here yeah yeah yeah yeah i don't

00:55:35.000 want to give ideas or details. Yes, I know. I agree. Sometimes I wish the news would just zip

00:55:41.240 it because I'm thinking, oh, this would trigger an idea. Then the very mentally unstable people 0.71

00:55:47.020 are like, hey. So with just a few minutes left, Kyle, I want to give you your due here. And

00:55:56.520 can you tell us about the book you wrote also? I didn't know that you wrote a book until I

00:56:01.200 saw it on your um page right so um essentially you see a lot of debate uh right now about the

00:56:08.380 revisionism of tolkien uh you see about what they're doing with harry potter and uh you know

00:56:14.560 a lot of people just want their fantasy to be a fantasy story and they don't want a lot of the

00:56:19.600 uh woke politics in it just to use a you know catchphrase about it but uh essentially you know

00:56:27.300 I wrote this book in more of a classic style, um, kind of a Tolkien meets C.S. Lewis. And I'm not

00:56:34.960 saying like, uh, you know, I, I'm just saying the spirit of it. Right. And I think that, uh,

00:56:39.700 ultimately, you know, as, as somebody who's worked in the news for a long time, it was very,

00:56:44.080 um, frustrating to see the negativity and they think people are being demoralized.

00:56:49.740 And so this book is essentially, it was inspired during COVID. It took me four or five years to

00:56:54.520 get this published. But it's about the effect of nihilism on society. And there's a very existential

00:57:00.980 sort of crisis in the world where history is undone. And they have to band together to face

00:57:13.120 this existential force that's going to undo the world. And so there's a series of books. There's

00:57:20.720 of four of them that are planned out. I'm on my second book. So the first in the series very,

00:57:24.840 just sets the table, introduces the characters, the stakes, um, the forces behind it, the world

00:57:31.400 that they're in. The second book is, is a lot more, you know, character driven forward and

00:57:36.840 really just takes off, you know, but the first one is a very strong introduction to this world

00:57:43.680 of Hypernia. And, uh, there's a lot of different political kingdoms. So like for political junkies,

00:57:48.720 There's a lot of political philosophy. You know, there's a there's a monarchy, there's a republic, there's a anarchy, there's a kleptocracy.

00:57:58.180 We're not the pirates, obviously. And so, like, why do all of these kingdoms crumble and decay?

00:58:05.400 And what does that feel like for characters who are in the in those societies?

00:58:10.280 And ultimately, there's a resolution to this by the end of the series that explains what is to be done.

00:58:16.620 you know sort of the famous political question um but it is an answer for the reader it is um

00:58:22.480 sort of uh revealed to them and they can take away whatever they want so it's not preachy at

00:58:27.760 all it's not it's just this is an adult book not it is and and i think that you know anybody who

00:58:33.800 who like the chronicles of narnia for example and sort of the outlook on that the the the method of

00:58:40.220 writing, but I modernize it. I use a more of a modern pacing. Nice. I like that. I don't like

00:58:47.560 things like period. I read very quick chapters. Love, love. I love that. Did you have fun today

01:04:47.500 replying to i know now we know like because remember when scott would like read one of

01:04:52.540 our comments and he would be like, why are you saying that? And I'm like, no, it's a reply to

01:04:57.160 someone else, but he couldn't see that it's attached to another comment. So we just see

01:05:02.300 lines of your comments, but we don't know what it's in response to. Oh, I know. He got mad at

01:05:07.900 me one day. I remember. Very mad. And I was like, what did I do? I was responding to somebody that

01:05:13.940 asked about the audio. It was probably Mike. No. You know how he hated the audio questions? Like,

01:05:20.840 don't mention the audio. Okay. I'm leaving. He, he got so mad at me and I was like, okay,

01:05:27.960 you know what? I'm not talking to you anymore. And I left in two hours later, he did call me

01:05:33.800 to apologize. So there you go. Cause I was like, I'm leaving. Oh my gosh. It was like,

01:05:40.480 I used to get nervous. Like people would come in, like we'd already go over the fact that

01:05:45.120 something was glitching and we'd settle everybody down. And then someone would come in and be like,

01:05:49.900 you know it's glitching and you're like no don't say it all i said somebody was asking what did i

01:05:57.100 say all i was responding to someone talking about the audio and i was telling them don't talk about

01:06:02.120 the audio and then he was like oh i hate you and at that time you guys didn't know but i was

01:06:08.380 helping him every morning so i was like you're yelling at the person that helps you every

01:06:13.140 morning at four or 4 30 in the morning i'm like no way i'm not talking to you and so

01:06:19.360 the people you love the most take the slings and arrows so he he was always uh mindful and he he

01:06:27.260 did apologize and it might have been a husband apology but still you know that's okay he didn't

01:06:35.700 mean it he had a lot of stuff going on at once and i know erica defended me so i saw that and i was

01:06:42.260 just like so sweet of her but all of us kind of got burned when everybody has a story of when

01:06:48.980 scott got angry at them about some comment i know oh yeah but oh yeah oh like i don't want to talk

01:06:57.480 too much behind the curtain but yeah one time yeah one time scott and i um had it we'll just

01:07:04.060 call it we had a disagreement and it was so like sad because we were both so like defensive about

01:07:11.920 it and i was like well now you're you know like you're making me cry like i think i'm gonna cry

01:07:18.020 he's like well so am i and i'm like oh my god i'm like this is like our first big fight it was awful

01:07:23.700 like we both ended up in tears but we reached an understanding thank god but you know again it's

01:07:30.200 like when you're close with people these things happen um but i i miss him every second of the 0.90

01:07:35.700 day damn it can't stand it you pissed him off with a bad comic oh geez oh that's that's not good 0.92

01:07:45.180 um man cave used to be interesting too oh yeah but um i know you know the artemis story is really 0.98

01:07:56.160 helpful they're going to lift off uh and i i know president trump is going to speak at 9 p.m eastern

01:08:05.400 um which is 6 p.m for me but um i think the liftoff for the artemis starts the window starts

01:08:14.320 at 6 30 uh eastern so we'll see you know hopefully they don't collide both stories but

01:08:22.400 um i'm really hopeful for them but it is scary there's four astronauts one is a woman of course 1.00

01:08:30.140 one is african-american one's canadian um oh they did put a minority canadian i mean a canadian

01:08:36.660 in. I'm kidding. It was just a little joke, just a joke. That's true. That's true. I just

01:08:47.120 imagine being them and being their family. That's very brave. No, I am so claustrophobic. I just

01:08:58.900 took a deep breath when I thought about it. First of all, having that suit on and that bubble over

01:09:04.060 my head. And then like, Hey, now we're going to put you in this little tiny bullet packed in.

01:09:09.700 There are people and bye-bye. I'd be like, Oh, I can't do it. I can't do it. I know I'm like the

01:09:14.820 girl that gets on the ride and I'm like, I want to get off. And you really think you're going to

01:09:18.280 be able to control the person operating the ride to be like, Oh, this girl really means it. Like,

01:09:24.220 let me get her off. Like everybody's like, get me off. I'm that girl. So I, you couldn't put me

01:09:28.980 a cruise ship too too much claustrophobia but i can't even imagine like okay so i know there's

01:09:36.100 obviously like i would be like what if i put my whole suit on and my head bubble and then i'm like

01:09:42.740 oh no i have psychological diarrhea and i need the bathroom like what happens you're wearing 0.84

01:09:48.660 oh okay so they said that they're wearing diapers like but you know you gotta sit in your diaper

01:09:53.540 with diarrhea but no gravity oh yeah i don't think okay so um i would wear makeup underneath

01:10:01.140 and i'd look really pretty that's all i'm saying and i like i would like coffee in space

01:10:06.660 oh i wonder if it's good yeah okay i don't want to mention the story okay i should have mentioned

01:10:13.080 it but there was a story i posted about something about zeeman in space but anyways oh i saw that

01:10:21.620 like the gravity yeah should you get pregnant i wonder if you could get i was gonna say if you 0.97

01:10:26.660 could get more pregnant i'm extra pregnant well okay just to disclose they're not testing that

01:10:33.540 in this orbit they're just you know doing different things oh yeah wait is the food

01:10:39.700 up there like the food that we used to get when you go on your class trip in eighth grade and you

01:10:44.100 get the freeze-dried ice cream like is your car like can you just chew your coffee crunchy

01:10:50.180 they they posted a list of things that they could uh have in space but i don't see it being

01:10:58.060 maybe it's nice lip gloss all i need is lip gloss you guys i don't care where i go i just need lip

01:11:05.600 gloss and that's like my so just to i think some people got confused with me um in regards to uh

01:11:12.720 So 630 Eastern is when the, when the liftoff could happen.

01:11:18.880 Uh, but 9 PM Eastern is when Trump will speak the six Pacific for Trump.

01:11:28.040 But, um, so there's like a three hour gap between the, the, hopefully the liftoff to

01:11:34.440 the, Oh, what are you showing?

01:11:36.180 I have to keep this little container of food on my desk for Stella because sometimes she

01:11:41.740 won't stop screaming so if you guys ever see me go like this i'm usually getting this little

01:11:46.380 container of food out and i'm like here are you psycho stella here come here sean thought something 0.75

01:11:53.100 else you were getting it no he was like what did he say um performing enhancing drugs or something

01:12:00.860 oh because we're performing better yes you guys i'm obsessed with my little pointer stick too

01:12:07.660 This is, this is Marcella and I like after hours.

01:12:10.600 We're just like, Hey. 0.96

01:12:14.980 It's very dumb of you, but anyways. 0.99

01:12:17.520 Right. 0.99

01:12:18.020 I'm like, it's very long.

01:12:19.260 Look how long it can be.

01:12:21.440 Look at it.

01:12:22.340 It's so, I just got this.

01:12:23.560 I am 12 people.

01:12:25.960 I am obsessed with this thing.

01:12:28.640 Stella is so demanding. 1.00

01:12:30.460 You guys, it's like the dementia, the old age, the cataracts, being deaf, the kidney

01:12:36.040 failure the weighing five pounds you know she can basically have whatever she wants if she could just 1.00

01:12:42.360 understand hey look here we're talking to the nice people stella so so today the birthright

01:12:51.240 citizenship uh arguments were on in the maybe they're still ongoing in the supreme

01:12:58.680 no this should be over with by now um in front of the supreme court and guess who was going

01:13:03.880 to watch it did you see that trump oh he was gonna be in the audience that's like when he put

01:13:11.800 uh juanita broderick in for the debate against hillary he's like i'll just sit here and watch

01:13:18.760 now is that intimidation that well he has a right as a citizen to go at all of us do we we have a

01:13:27.160 right to attend. They do not video the Supreme Court arguments, but they do an audio of it.

01:13:34.940 But we, as people, as citizens, we're allowed to go. So he's allowed, you know, obviously you can

01:13:41.000 argue that the left is going to argue that he was intimidating them. I think he likes to stare them

01:13:46.280 down and, you know, look at them and make them know that their decision is going to make an

01:13:53.360 impact so he's representing america yeah in in his viewpoint he's representing um because he he

01:14:00.220 tweeted i think tweeted i shouldn't use the word tweeted um truth posted uh this whole thing about

01:14:06.900 well citizens citizenship uh the citizenship clause that you are claiming is birthright

01:14:14.540 citizenship was for slaves not for chinese immigrants that have 53 babies something like 0.72

01:14:23.400 that oh my god my camera is so hot wait i'm trying to show you stella what are you showing us oh no

01:14:27.860 i hit my button wait shoot now it's gonna start zooming i see real coffee with scott adams is

01:14:52.720 All right, so that's enough.

01:14:54.160 And we're done.

01:14:55.680 Josie, can you, Josie says that the president has gone to Supreme Court arguments before.

01:15:01.620 Do you know which ones, Josie?

01:15:04.200 Sean, I like your breakfast better than Scott's.

01:15:06.440 Although Scott's does look good every day.

01:15:10.280 i like a muffin or a cupcake mini muffins we have the best new bakery near me

01:15:22.200 are they open they must open really early

01:15:25.640 oh thank you bob bob's giving us um bowel timing for being in space

01:15:32.440 yep i mean anything goes here what is it something the chinese billionaire had fathered a hundred

01:15:42.620 american children now does scott ritchie have a stake every morning look marcel and i will have

01:15:48.120 two totally different conversations with you guys do you think he's is scott ritchie here where is

01:15:52.940 scott ritchie he's probably gone he's probably cooking a steak i'm wondering if he just has

01:15:57.460 like a folder full of steaks and he just like cycles through them? Or is he actually making

01:16:02.640 that steak every day? I need to know. Oh, Andy is right. You're talking food. That's a no-no

01:16:11.800 for you. It's okay here though. I'm all for it. Andy, we're not talking food that we eat.

01:16:17.860 We're just criticizing you guys in your food.

01:16:20.820 because the rule for scarred is not mentioning the food he eats right that's why he stopped

01:16:29.420 telling us where he was getting his um door dash or whatever he got was it door dash or uber eats

01:16:34.700 door dash yeah because as soon as he'd say whatever everybody would be like you shouldn't

01:16:40.740 eat that that has probiotics in it this has fungus in it this will make you you know you

01:16:45.780 and he'd be like that's it i can't take it let's see it was so cute one one one day he um

01:16:54.660 he he texted me he said marcella um the door dasher is named marcella you're bringing it to me

01:17:03.620 andy says he eats soylent green after swimming oh no oh yeah because swimming is the best sport

01:17:10.980 it's the best exercise best exercise oh my god all the wrong things so funny no caps

01:17:19.460 and don't tell me i'm wrong without saying why which i agree with i i have to say it is pretty

01:17:26.420 wacky to look over and see someone just go wrong and you're like wrong what what's wrong

01:17:32.820 what are the things that were weren't were npc like the main mentioning the matrix

01:17:40.260 oh um yeah like calling rob reiner meathead french press is the best coffee don't say

01:17:48.500 like the obvious thing like anytime rob reiner would come on you knew someone was gonna call

01:17:55.220 a meathead in the chat and you're like no don't do it don't do it i i didn't do that

01:18:01.780 one but i did another one you did oh something about something i forget which one i did

01:18:08.900 but i was just like oh oh the co2 is plant food yeah garfield oh the audio for sure

01:18:20.180 sorry we're you know so that's the thing now we're discovering you know how like

01:18:24.660 i was like scott read this faster because we in the chat you're you're it's going by faster

01:18:31.460 but we see it there's a delay yeah of what we say to what they're saying

01:18:38.020 yeah watch marcel i'll show you i do this if i go on locals sometimes so

01:18:42.660 when you guys hear me say the number eight write it down eight write the number eight

01:18:49.060 so you'll see the delay she's hypnotizing you

01:18:51.780 this comic there we go see how long that took yeah that's long

01:19:02.360 very good andy you're hypnotized now andy i also want to say look at all the eights i also want to

01:19:11.260 say thank you for holding strong on the line about alec baldwin it makes my heart happy every time i

01:19:16.780 see it. Andy, I think you just make me happy in general. I'm always, I'm always appreciating your

01:19:22.760 comments. Andy's dangerous because he makes me laugh when I'm not supposed to be laughing.

01:19:27.600 I know. Sometimes I ignore him. And sometimes the guest looks kind of like,

01:19:34.080 why is she laughing? I know one day back in the beginning, because Marcella was like always

01:19:40.380 watching you guys. And I forget what I said to her. I'm like, Marcella, we're talking about like

01:19:44.260 someone died and burned alive and their insides came out. And I look over at you and you're like,

01:19:50.660 like right now, it's like, just keep one ear on what's actually being said.

01:19:59.600 Or like Stefan Mullen, you'll be on here. He's like, we're all like, yeah. Then Marcella's like,

01:20:06.580 type it away. I'm like, Marcella, come back. It's, and I can't look at her.

01:20:11.120 I can't do it.

01:20:11.780 That's why I don't go on the chat anymore because I can't.

01:20:15.500 I'm always laughing, you guys.

01:20:17.380 This is my whole day is just laughter.

01:20:20.220 Even when things go bad.

01:20:23.160 For me, I still laugh.

01:30:55.720 what the hell just happened and they'll be like i'm like yes this is rare rare shoes even though

01:31:01.680 i can't wear men's shoes i know i'm like i think i need a size 11 men's jordans for some reason

01:31:07.800 you're like what am i doing but people get sucked in bad and then they have like a shopping addiction

01:31:13.480 then they're stuck with all this stuff you got to be very careful on those sites it is a lot like

01:31:18.040 gambling a lot it is gambling um at least you get something for it in exchange but um it you know

01:31:27.000 i'm such a nerd i look at these things and i um i kind of think of it as scott would think of it

01:31:34.600 what are they doing what are the things that they're doing to to get you enticed to sell you

01:31:39.720 know like this this fear thing like if you don't buy it then it'll be gone forever even though like

01:31:46.920 the next week you see them selling it again so the fear the visual you do like a fast auction

01:31:53.880 so they're like so there's two ways to do it one is typically when i'm running something

01:31:59.800 it's going to go to the highest bidder. So like if you swipe on the item, like there's a little

01:32:05.560 button to swipe, the time will reset for like five seconds. So people have five more seconds

01:32:11.000 to decide like, Oh no, no, no. I want that. That's one way. The other way is called sudden

01:32:16.440 death. So like maybe I set my timer, it could be five, 10, 15, 20 seconds, but whoever the last

01:32:23.180 person to swipe on it before the timer runs out, gets it. So that's the urgency, the big like

01:32:29.220 sneaker sellers do, they'll be like, we're doing five seconds, sudden death. And you're like,

01:32:35.280 how can so many people swipe in five seconds? I swear to God, I've seen things go to $800 in five,

01:32:41.040 in five seconds. Like people are like, I got to get, I got to get, I got to get it. And you have

01:32:44.740 like 300 people all swiping on it. It's insanity. So that a lot of people are like hyped, like when

01:32:52.960 they're selling and like, some people are like, you know, sounding off horns and they've got bells

01:32:57.880 and they've got you know you're like i'm in it i'm in it it's so crazy sudden death man that is

01:33:05.000 about i like i i can win sudden death i'm really good at it we should do the you know i wish i

01:33:10.440 could see um like the news be done in that fashion oh my god it would be so funny if there would be

01:33:18.280 like somebody that would put on the news but do it in the fashion that you see tick tock do it

01:33:24.600 so tick tock doesn't like yeah tick tock doesn't allow news because i had a friend

01:33:30.040 that tried to do some news on tick tock they got banned he was never able to come back and it's

01:33:34.920 nothing that he said it's just they don't let you i mean you could go into theories china and all

01:33:40.360 that but imagine doing the news in that fashion like we should do that one day we could do it i

01:37:13.360 built and billions are being wasted as if um you're allowing that that waste to go on for the

01:37:22.760 federal reserve building but you are stopping this from being built even though the government's not

01:37:29.900 paying for it or the taxpayer so he he hinted at maybe they just want to get their in on the fraud

01:37:38.700 you know because some of these projects they take on a different they they they bloom

01:37:47.060 it's like huge amounts of money and part of that is you allow your what would what would you say

01:43:52.380 i saw that on her x profile she has quite the dollhouse collection you guys and

01:43:58.800 a couple of years ago, we were talking about her dollhouse collection and I was like, oh,

01:44:05.840 my grandmother took a class with her friends a bazillion years ago and they made dollhouse

01:44:11.180 furniture. It was so random and it was so pretty and so sweet with fabric and this little wing

01:44:17.280 back chair and a little butcher block and little knives and a little cleaver, all these little

01:44:22.340 things, a little baby bassinet and a bench and some other stuff. And I said, I feel so guilty

01:44:28.440 because I don't know what to do with it. And Beverly was like, you can send it to me and

01:44:32.720 I'll put it in one of my dollhouses. And I was like bawling my eyes out. I'm like, oh my God,

01:44:37.340 it's going to like see its life's purpose. And so I sent it off to Beverly and she sent me pictures

01:44:43.940 of it, like in one of the dollhouses, like with a little family sitting on the furniture and like

01:44:48.440 a little dog on the floor. And I'm like, oh, I was so happy. So I hope she saw that I posted

01:44:54.280 her picture today. You know, it's funny because as, as a little girl, I wouldn't play with all

01:45:00.080 houses. I would play with the soldiers and with the transformers. And then I would combine them

01:45:06.720 and I would attack the Barbies, but anyways, so mean. So I would end up having her doll houses 1.00

01:45:15.460 and having soldiers in front of it or something like that. It'd just be fun. I don't know. I had

01:45:20.740 Barbies. I love them, but Barbies I played with alone. My brother would never play with my Barbies

01:45:26.940 with me, but I for sure, like every Saturday and Sunday morning, we took like the Lincoln logs and

01:45:32.800 we built forts and barriers and walls. And then he had like all these army people and we would

01:45:38.900 take turns like you pick first. And we took turns picking that was very organized, but you know,

01:45:45.160 it was funny. There was only like a few of the army men that were like in a position, like

01:45:49.520 one could like sit in the truck and one was like down with the gun so my first three picks

01:45:56.080 always the ones that didn't belong to the set they were three very tall presidents

01:46:01.540 and i always took the presidents first and then he would always take the army men and i'm like

01:46:07.400 laughing now thinking about that he couldn't do anything but stand there but i was like

01:46:11.560 i like the big presidents does she does beverly sell the dollhouses is that something no she

01:46:18.780 it was not yet not yet she couldn't have i guess she didn't have one when she was a kid and always

01:46:24.120 wanted one so she has like a spare bedroom that has like i'm i'm just saying like 10 dollhouses 1.00

01:46:30.920 in it and each one's different like one's like mid-century modern and one is more traditional

01:46:37.640 and so they all have their own vibe it is so cool very nice she'd probably make a lot of money 0.99

01:46:45.000 trying it's selling them but i'm always trying to is that for sale right yeah she needs an army of 0.94

01:46:53.860 men though to defend that that that that home well i had gi joe to defend barbie and sometimes they 1.00

01:47:00.980 would date like gi joe would come over they would they would hang out in the jeep and they would go

01:47:08.320 pick her up in the jeep and like he they could go to like her dream house and yes they would kiss

01:47:13.800 like this is what kids did and so they would kiss and like they were so like burly and cool and she

01:47:19.660 was so like demure with her little hands all the guys are like oh my god yep yep but maybe this is 0.56

01:47:26.560 why i liked a more burly man i like gi joe he was solid dude there was two of them one that kind of

01:47:34.060 had red hair we need more gi joe shows for kids yes yeah he-man and yeah i remember a gi joe had

01:47:43.920 like a felt head and all the lint would stick to his head all the time so he's trying to get the

01:47:48.700 lint off of his head oh my god he's oh yeah my brother always took my barbie's heads off i was

01:47:58.480 like oh my god i don't want to say it but i did too my sister still hates me to this day because 0.77

01:48:06.160 i took off he'd like rip off their heads and like i loved ripping off their heads yep ken was i was

01:48:14.160 only five you guys i did not know how how to put it back and you couldn't put it back just how to

01:48:21.280 put it back you had to like really i was always in trouble i was always in trouble as a kid and

01:48:27.840 And then like you put them in a bathtub and like you could squeeze their heads and like water would come out of their neck.

01:48:33.440 They'd like fill up with water.

01:48:36.480 No more Barney.

01:48:38.480 Okay.

01:48:39.540 That's what I was saying, Zanville.

01:48:40.940 They're fuzzy heads and all the lint would stick to their heads. 0.99

01:48:45.620 You'd bomb them with firecrackers. 0.60

01:48:47.460 Oh, did anyone have the evil Knievel with the string? 0.79

01:48:50.480 And he'd go on his motorcycle and jump a ramp.

01:48:53.900 Oh, I didn't have the money for that.

01:48:56.840 My brother got him for like Christmas.

01:49:00.240 Maybe.

01:49:01.100 We wrecked him because the house we lived in had a dumbwaiter, like an elevator that went

01:49:06.760 from the servant's quarters, that's how old the house was, down to the kitchen.

01:49:11.560 So we're like, let's see if evil can jump into the dumbwaiter.

01:49:15.300 So we opened the dumbwaiter door and set up the ramp.

01:49:17.720 You had a dumbwaiter?

01:49:19.180 Yeah. 0.95

01:49:19.460 And it went right into the dumbwaiter hole.

01:49:22.000 And then we like looked over the edge and there he was and we could never get him again.

01:49:26.200 Did you have a basement?

01:49:28.300 We did also have a basement.

01:49:30.020 Yep.

01:49:30.280 A giant basement and a massive attic.

01:49:33.660 And if anyone heard my ghost story, you know about the attic.

01:49:37.700 I used to love, you know, we were still in El Salvador,

01:49:41.820 but we loved watching like American movies and seeing their houses and like

01:49:47.000 the different areas, like in the East coast, you know,

01:49:50.400 where they have like basements and attics and all that.

01:49:53.460 And El Salvador, you don't have that.

01:49:55.420 the way the houses are built is very different. So we were always like, look, oh my God. And then

01:50:02.060 it's like a dumb waiter. This and that is like so cool for us to see it. 0.99

01:50:06.880 Oh yeah. I know. Our basement in that house was really, really big. It had like a workshop and

01:50:14.600 you could roller skate in the basement. We'd play ping pong in the basement and all that stuff.

01:50:19.840 And the attic was massive and pretty empty. We didn't really put anything up.

01:50:24.580 you're in home alone. Oh my God. It was that house was so pretty. Wasn't it? So American. 0.58

01:50:31.720 I think they put it up for sale, the real house, but it's nothing like the inside.
