00:01:58.220 it's called the simultaneous sip and it happens right now go
00:02:03.300 one of the best dare i say the best
00:02:12.780 uh dare he say the best i'd have to agree you guys you're so i love you guys on the
00:02:20.700 locals every day. You have your ritual of what you say while Scott's sipping, what you post,
00:02:27.900 the pictures, and I love seeing them every single day. You guys, it's like part of the routine. If
00:02:33.640 it wasn't there, I think I'd be sad. Joshua, how are you this Tuesday morning? I'm good. I'm going
00:02:40.100 to be here with you all. I think it's going to be a fun, fun time. There's lots of stories for us to
00:02:44.500 get into and it will be entertaining and enlightening and probably a few of those. I
00:02:49.440 can't believe he just said that. Oh, well, that's interesting because I have some questions for you
00:02:58.420 two. I said to myself, well, Marcella's not here. I've got the two dudes with me. I've got Joshua
00:03:04.620 and Owen, two amazing dads, two amazing men. And, you know, let's do like a little bit of
00:03:11.340 news to catch up. And then I thought it might be fun to have a little question and answer
00:03:17.880 segment with you guys um for the second half of the show so that's what i'm hoping to do
00:03:22.680 but first joshua how is the scott adams biography going it's going exceedingly well you know me
00:03:32.440 and joel pollock and uh the um scott adams art art director you know she she doesn't have like
00:03:40.740 a super public profile she'd prefer to kind of kind of remain behind the scenes but her name is
00:03:44.540 may and she she's phenomenal so it was the three of us plus the estate family you know going through
00:03:50.620 um photo album after photo album old documents this cash a trove of stuff there uh at the
00:03:58.920 you know kind of the i guess you could say uh housebert you know the uh famous scott adams
00:04:06.200 estate there in california and that was that was quite meaningful to be working on his story
00:04:13.680 where the story so much of the story happened you know and there at his desk you know got the
00:04:21.840 computer up and writing his story from his space and i didn't even quite catch in real time as i
00:04:30.420 was doing it how meaningful that was but we brought scott's book home yeah you did i i know that
00:04:38.740 was great. I love that you guys were there doing that. Sean, you're so funny. Okay. So I spoke to
00:04:47.580 Joel last night. We had a good little chat and yeah, you guys, things are moving along. It's
00:04:52.280 very exciting. And I can tell you that Joel too feels emotional writing it. He feels a big
00:05:00.700 responsibility. I mean, Scott is like one of a kind. There's only one Scott Adams. And so
00:05:07.880 it's a big undertaking and i did ask joel because i don't think i was sure of which way this went
00:05:14.800 but i said did scott ask you to write the book or did you approach him with it he said no scott
00:05:19.540 asked me and i was just like i love it i love it um so we can't wait we we love little updates
00:05:25.680 and um we're going to eat it up i think november it's set to come out right yes we're looking at
00:05:32.560 sort of the holiday 2026 season so this this is you know going to be kind of thanksgiving through
00:05:38.620 kanaka to christmas that period and new year's you know people who have kind of a resolution
00:05:43.620 haven't gotten to things yet the first week of the year so there there will be like a an
00:05:48.300 approximately eight week period this uh fall through winter early winter 2027 where this is
00:05:56.380 all that you hear about you are going to hear about nothing else besides the scott adams official
00:06:01.480 biography you might even get tired of it so that that you you end up buying five copies to make it
00:06:07.320 stop you might even buy ten are we really going to get tired of winning joshua that's right so
00:06:14.320 the way i see it is you're going to buy scott's biography you're going to block me because you're
00:06:17.680 sick of hearing about it we'll be so tired of loving this book and talking about it we're going
00:06:23.120 to buy all the copies joshua was saying so then there's no more to talk about then we'll be
00:06:27.420 talking about the second run of the book, and I cannot wait for that either. So we're all excited,
00:06:32.600 you guys. Joshua, the other thing I wanted to get to was one of your other books,
00:06:39.260 The Haitians of Springfield. I'm saying Ohio. So there's a lot of action right now in Ohio
00:06:46.800 with, I guess, the deportations are starting or ICE is rounding up the Haitians. And so I'll let
00:06:53.740 you tell us what's happening i did see something like you can either have an ankle monitor
00:06:58.460 or you can fly back to haiti now and so give us the update yes so at its peak there was a
00:07:08.300 haitian influx into springfield ohio most people know about the stories of the cats and the dogs
00:07:12.940 and the ducks and the geese etc in the park but overall that's not really the story let's say oh
00:07:18.300 they're eating the cats. They're eating the dogs. Really, they're eating the jobs. The gentry of
00:07:24.280 Springfield, Ohio and Ohio more broadly love, love, love cheap, migrant, uneducated labor.
00:07:32.860 They love it. They love it. Story after story after story of Americans earning $33 an hour
00:07:38.280 being replaced by one to two Haitian temporary workers earning more like $11 an hour. It's free
00:07:47.180 profit. It's free profit. So two Haitians is cheaper than the price of one American. And if
00:07:54.460 you're a profit first, one nation under GDP, country club American, don't forget the dash
00:08:00.720 right in there, then you're going to be all in favor of migration. So right now there is
00:08:07.680 screeching, hooping, and hollering, coping and seething about the deportation station of the
00:08:14.920 Haitian, that is in Springfield, Ohio now. ICE, Immigration Customs Enforcement, they're on the
00:08:20.640 ground. Local business owners who have profited off of the presence, as well as pastors, preachers,
00:08:27.540 etc., who have been able to fundraise off of the Haitians using them as empathy props,
00:08:33.180 holding up a picture. Here are my Haitian neighbors. I'm fundraising for my Haitian
00:08:37.120 neighbors. My Haitian neighbors. Here's my Venmo. That's barely an exaggeration.
00:08:43.880 Okay. So these are the people who are flipping out about minimum viable law enforcement,
00:08:51.600 you know, and you might've seen some viral clips of people saying, oh, you know, Trump's Gestapo
00:08:56.920 is disappearing people. We just want free healthcare. Vote left. Okay. That kind of,
00:09:03.680 that kind of thing. Whereas in reality, reality tends to be the opposite of what left-wing
00:09:10.420 pundits, policymakers, and politicians say it is, obviously. And so what's actually happened
00:09:16.500 is the temporary protected status, it was known it was going to expire. It had been held on by a
00:09:24.780 thread. The Haitian migrants who actually want to be long-term residents here and get a pathway to
00:09:32.980 citizenship they self-deported a long time ago right a long time ago sometimes some as many as
00:09:40.540 as soon as the election 2024 like november december okay we're going to go back to brazil
00:09:45.880 where we had lived for 10 years 10 years you know and this is a story that you're not intending not
00:09:53.300 to see in the news is that many of the haitians were bilingual haitian creole and brazilian
00:09:58.560 Portuguese. So those who want to actually live in America and began to become acclimated to
00:10:05.420 the environment, the climate, the language, the culture, and the customs, and they want to fit in
00:10:10.420 and they want to be American. And as the oath of citizenship would go, releasing allegiance to all
00:10:19.460 others, they've long gone because they want to be Americans. Unfortunately, that's not the majority
00:10:25.860 of the Haitian population. They just want to work. Yeah. Well, so do Americans. They just
00:10:32.000 want a better life. So does Springfield, Ohio. And this earth is a pie and it's not an unlimited pie.
00:10:41.980 And to take from one is to give to another, to give to the one is to take from another. And
00:10:47.880 because of the cheap labor, the ease of scamming Haitian migrants, frankly, I talked about this
00:10:54.580 last time, a number of scams, both involving Haitians and targeting Haitians, often done by
00:10:59.620 other Haitians, in Springfield, Ohio. Just absolutely horrific. And so now what has happened
00:11:06.560 is there have been many individuals who were summoned by Immigration Customs Enforcement to
00:11:13.960 appear near Cincinnati in an area called Blue Ash, where the ICE office is, DHS. And basically,
00:11:21.200 while their uh while their immigration case is being reviewed you know don't don't go anywhere
00:11:27.380 don't scoot don't disappear uh hence the ankle monitor situation because they're illegal aliens
00:11:34.140 technically frankly they're illegal aliens you know we have to understand there's people will
00:11:39.440 say oh you know being undocumented is not a crime no human is illegal they like to use persuasion
00:11:45.420 scott was always good about pulling out their persuasion so i try to do the same i'm not as
00:11:49.060 effective, but I will, I will try my best and maybe I'll get better to be one 10th of what he was
00:11:53.040 someday. The civil versus criminal matter is the illegal entry into the United States is a,
00:12:03.780 is a criminal to overstay your visa or to overstay your fill in the blank is civil. Now the TPS people
00:12:12.000 are, it's a little fuzzy because Biden just let, they just, as we know in 2021, all the giant,
00:12:17.580 all the great caravans coming up from central america many of them including haitians
00:12:21.380 they just opened the gates they just opened it up at del rio texas and so you had tens of
00:12:27.300 thousands of haitians come in that way like walk across the border many of them using the cbp1
00:12:33.840 app right and disappearing into the into the country many of them had gotten fake ids in
00:12:40.780 chile brazil or many of them maybe also in mexico you know using fake driver's licenses fake names
00:12:46.400 and whatnot. You know, one of the Americans, one of the Ohioans, one of the Springfield people,
00:12:51.820 a child who was killed, was killed by a Haitian migrant who had a fake Mexican driver's license,
00:12:59.780 right? One of these fraudulent ones. And of course, there is a crisis in Springfield that I
00:13:04.180 report on in Haitians of Springfield, the book, where there has been an operation affiliated with
00:13:09.200 one of the organizations that's pro-Haitian, we call it Haiti First in the community, that has
00:13:13.880 been manufacturing fake social security cards that have they look authentic okay and they have
00:13:19.420 the similar card stock so there might unfortunately be a mole inside of the social security administration
00:13:25.380 who's giving them the papers and like the the card stock of social security cards so they can
00:13:30.360 make fake social security cards for the haitians so that they can stay when ice shows up they show
00:13:36.380 them the social security card it makes it look like they're real and authentic and you know you
00:13:39.460 can stay, okay? So I don't know how widespread that was. I'm aware of there being 17 of them.
00:13:46.460 I understand that there's some interest from law enforcement after maybe three years of it and
00:13:53.820 being known that there was this fraud and the people perpetrating it still going around and
00:13:58.660 going free and giving interviews and pleading to everyone who has a little bit of disposable
00:14:03.580 income to donate to their empathy props, the Haitians. It's a rough situation, but yesterday
00:14:09.160 a number of videos went viral of ICE arresting individual Haitians at a local car wash near
00:14:17.180 some people call it Haitian Central. There is an old strip mall that almost every single
00:14:25.260 business that's there is now run by Haitians. And I believe the entire complex itself is
00:14:31.580 owned by a Haitian individual. I wanted to play a clip because you know, we often talk
00:14:37.600 about suicidal empathy and that's what i'm seeing a lot of ohio residents showing um but you know
00:14:45.540 listen to this this there's a man here reporting and just listen to how they describe the conditions
00:14:52.200 of haiti and the haitians in haiti and understand that these are the same people that are coming
00:14:57.680 here so let's just take a look i think this isn't i think this is in blue ash maybe outside of the
00:15:03.600 THAT IS THE MESSAGE THAT IS
00:15:05.620 REVERBERATING HERE IN BLUE ASH,
00:15:07.580 OHIO.
00:15:08.120 THAT IS THE MESSAGE THAT IS
00:15:10.640 THE MESSAGE THAT IS THE ICE
00:15:12.340 FACILITY.
00:15:13.000 HUNDREDS OF OHIOANS ALL THE
00:15:16.100 WAY DOWN THE BLOCK OVER THERE
00:15:18.480 SNAKING ALL THE WAY ACROSS HERE
00:15:21.460 AT 7.50 A.M. IN THE MORNING
00:15:23.940 HOLDING ALL DIFFERENT SORTS OF
00:15:25.860 SIGNS INCLUDING THIS SIGN IN
00:15:27.460 CREOLE.
00:15:27.960 CAN YOU FLIP IT THE OTHER WAY
00:15:29.620 FOR ME, PLEASE?
00:15:30.900 NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE FROM,
00:15:33.040 DEPORTATION TO A COUNTRY THAT
00:15:35.040 THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT
00:15:37.040 CLASSIFIES AS A LEVEL FOR DO NOT
00:15:40.040 TRAVEL.
00:15:41.040 AS THESE HAITIANS ARE BEING
00:15:43.040 MADE TO MAKE THIS INCREDIBLY
00:15:45.040 DEFICULT DECISION, EITHER BE
00:15:47.040 DETAINED ON THE SPOT WHICH WILL
00:15:49.040 LEAD TO INEVITABLE DEPORTATION
00:15:51.040 OR WEAR AN ANKLE MONITOR WHICH
00:15:53.040 SERVES, ONE MAN TOLD ME, AS A
00:15:56.040 24-7 REMINDER OF THE FEAR OF
00:15:58.040 DEPORTATION.
00:15:59.040 DEPORTATION TO A COUNTRY THAT THE
00:16:01.040 WITH SEXUAL VIOLENCE, WITH
00:16:02.920 KIDNAPPING, WITH TERRORISM.
00:16:05.440 THAT IS WHAT THIS ANKLE MONITOR
00:16:07.720 IS THE CONSTANT REMINDER OF FOR
00:16:09.800 THESE HAITIAN PEOPLE.
00:16:10.760 NOW, I WANT TO INTRODUCE YOU TO
00:16:12.360 THE LEADER OF THE HAITIAN
00:16:13.400 COMMUNITY IN SPRINGFIELD, OHIO.
00:16:15.480 HIS NAME IS VILAS DORSENVILLE.
00:16:17.480 VILAS, WHAT IS YOUR COMMUNITY
00:16:20.080 GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW AND WHY
00:16:21.320 IS IT SO IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO BE
00:16:22.840 RIGHT HERE OUTSIDE OF THIS ICE
00:16:25.220 FIELD OFFICE RIGHT NOW?
00:16:26.680 BASICALLY, I AM HERE JUST TO
00:16:29.280 MAKE SURE THAT WE BRING OUT
00:16:30.680 support to our community. And we are witnessing how fearful they are. And there is so much
00:16:38.860 anxiety going on. They are very uncertain. Specifically, they are very much ashamed of
00:16:45.660 that ankle monitors on their feet. We are here to support them, to show them we stand
00:16:51.660 in solidarity with them. And most likely, we are here with some of the attorneys to
00:16:56.420 represent them. And we ask the attorneys to speak on their behalf and ask those agents not to put
00:17:04.780 those in-call monitors because when they get home with them, they are ashamed to show that to their
00:17:09.820 kids because they're not criminals. And our presence here is to support them as much as we
00:17:16.480 can because there is a lot of psychological pressure on them. Can you imagine? So it's like,
00:17:24.700 oh, these poor criminals who are here illegally and, you know, avoiding being deported. And they,
00:17:32.560 you know, we're, we're supposed to have all the Ohioans being like, sympathizing with them and
00:17:38.060 yes, take our jobs and yes, you know, destroy property and everything else. So Joshua,
00:17:44.140 that's just pretty amazing, isn't it? Yes. And I do not believe that this is,
00:17:50.020 what they're experiencing is empathy. I think what we're witnessing is widespread, normalized,
00:17:58.920 anti-white activism. Because the people of Springfield, I performed the first, I commissioned
00:18:05.380 the first professional poll of Clark County and of Springfield, Ohio voters. And approximately
00:18:13.300 two-thirds fully oppose the Haitian influx. A vast majority, also nearly two-thirds,
00:18:20.740 have had either negative or very negative experiences with the Haitian migrants.
00:18:28.100 So the people who actually live with, near, around among the Haitians, the number one most
00:18:34.920 common, it was approximately 70% of those polls said, what would they like done? Expire TPS and
00:18:42.580 deport them all. It's very difficult to get almost 70% of people to answer one way. And of course,
00:18:49.280 we're into the dangerous territory, nearly 25% answering incorrectly, as Scott would always say
00:18:54.300 with 25% reframe. But that's about the size of it. Now, they create this visual persuasion to show
00:19:01.400 all these Ohioans. I highly doubt that those are all Ohioans. We happen to know and we regularly
00:19:08.120 see when there have been protests in Springfield. License plates from Michigan, Indiana, some from
00:19:13.980 Pennsylvania and Kentucky as well. Basically, all of your so-called NPR Americans, don't forget the
00:19:23.400 hyphen, people who believe the news is real, that is who is called forth and called out. And I don't
00:19:30.260 think they're paid protesters. I think they've simply believed this. Anti-white discrimination,
00:19:35.820 discrimination, racism, bigotry are not just accepted, they're widely endorsed. And it's
00:19:42.700 easy to call forth that, that ire, you know, and, and the people of Springfield regularly tell me
00:19:48.220 that that's why they believe that they were targeted. They were a vulnerable white working
00:19:52.440 class community that could not organize, counter organize and defend itself. And of course, if you
00:19:57.480 look at areas where the Haitians would have perhaps fared the best in America, Trotwood,
00:20:03.820 Ohio, west of Dayton, northwest Dayton, approximately 80% African-American. The west
00:20:09.560 side of Dayton, north of Dayton, this is just, you know, just a little ways over, parts of Norwood,
00:20:15.340 just north of Cincinnati. These are very black areas. And by the way, across my demographics in
00:20:21.780 the polling, approximately 80% of black Springfield residents support the Haitians.
00:20:28.460 it's it's by it what do we have here we have tribalism we have racial identitarianism that's
00:20:35.820 allowed to go one way of course uh and we see that of course the vast majority of anti-whites
00:20:41.760 are are white um which is not a surprise uh and also we look at it's largely baby boomers
00:20:48.920 it's baby boomer women who you know on a sunday morning why aren't you in church why aren't you
00:20:55.520 going to church with your with your with your family why aren't you in church with your grandkids
00:21:00.100 you know it's kind of what we wonder or at least at home your men's hair why is the men's hair
00:21:06.020 longer than the women's hair folks what are we doing here listen sunday morning ladies you should
00:21:11.200 at least be at home making pancakes for your man that's just my opinion um oh and go ahead
00:21:16.520 well what strikes me is it seems like we you know we often talk about a two-tier justice system where
00:21:22.720 the elites have a different standard that they're held to than regular Americans, but it seems like
00:21:27.980 we really have a three-tier system where there's this new tier of illegals where none of the laws
00:21:33.900 seem to apply to them. And, you know, we're starting to crack down on at least some of the
00:21:38.240 major fraud that seems to be happening in that tier. But it just really seems striking to me
00:21:46.320 that a completely different standard is applied to somebody who comes into the country illegally.
00:21:51.440 They're not scrutinized the same way. They're not held to the same laws. They're not held to the same standards. They're given all sorts of free stuff. They're overlooked with all kinds of law enforcement. And I just don't understand why we're allowing this to happen.
00:22:04.720 Yes, I think it is because of internalized anti-whiteness. I observed this and I picked
00:22:12.860 up on this very explicitly in the 10 weeks I spent on the ground in Springfield earlier this
00:22:17.680 year. And I've gone back a number of times for protests, for counter protests, for town halls,
00:22:23.420 for additional interviews and whatnot. And several times a week, sometimes several times a day,
00:22:29.160 I hear from a new Springfield resident with a new story. Like the latest one, I got texted a police
00:22:33.820 report from a, from a father, um, Haitians have been trying to kidnap male Haitians attempting
00:22:39.360 to kidnap his underage daughter. Uh, finally, finally, finally, after like the third attempt
00:22:44.580 of a kidnapping of his, of his underage daughter, police finally showed up and did something.
00:22:48.940 Uh, and you know, his fate was, they let him go. They let him go. So there's a, a, a sexual predator
00:22:54.780 and this happens regularly. Unfortunately, there are a number of these stories of attempted
00:22:58.240 abductions of, of, and it's always, always, always, always white children, um, that they're
00:23:04.620 targeting the, the, the, the Haitians as part of this like trafficking ring or whatever or not
00:23:08.400 they're doing. I also became aware of a credible report. I don't want to expose from who it was
00:23:14.320 or, or what is involved, but I am led to believe that the Central American cartel, drug cartels
00:23:21.480 have been hiring Haitians, male Haitian migrants, to be their mules in Clark County. So everyone
00:23:29.760 is profiting off of the Haitian presence except for the white people. And every time I talk to
00:23:33.760 them, you know what the first thing they say? I promise you I'm not racist, but. I promise I'm
00:23:39.180 not racist, but. And then they will share the thing that happened to them and say, but I promise
00:23:44.240 you I'm not racist. I would say this is about anyone. You could be from Iceland or Ireland.
00:23:48.840 And I've come to say, no.
00:23:52.640 If you sent 35,000 Irishmen into Springfield, they would be wonderful.
00:23:58.880 None of this would be happening.
00:24:00.860 In fact, you would have an economic boom unlike any that the city has ever seen.
00:24:04.420 And you and I both know that.
00:24:05.800 And that's the thing, Joshua.
00:24:07.180 People need to be able to say the truth.
00:24:09.300 That's the truth.
00:24:10.620 I mean, somebody said in the chat, Haitians are afraid of Haitians.
00:24:15.560 you know so it's like let's not act like you know these uh like you said like icelandic people or
00:24:22.160 irish people came there and everyone's kumbaya ended up like they're bringing their bullshit
00:24:27.180 with them to america like every other group that's here illegally is bringing theirs here also so
00:24:33.800 like we have to stop pretending like listen i'm not saying you know i i always tell the chat i'm
00:24:38.860 so sick of like a qualifier or a preamble or a i'm not saying all muslims are bad because there's
00:24:45.060 people on YouTube that are going to go, here we go with the phobias. No, it's just reality. It's
00:24:49.480 just reality. I don't really care if you don't like the way I'm saying something. It just,
00:24:54.540 it is what it is. We see it and I'm not turning a blind eye to it anymore. I am America first
00:25:00.600 and foremost, and I don't see it happening. I see a degradation of our country and nobody seems to
00:25:08.560 want to just stand up and be like, wait a minute, you know, let's, let's spit the truth here. Like
00:25:13.420 you're importing disgusting third world things that have nothing to do with our ideology morals
00:25:21.020 values our way of life our constitution and we're supposed to stay on best behavior while everyone
00:25:27.900 else runs rampant and steals from us and we we have to be angry enough about it to not be afraid
00:25:34.740 to speak up about it yes and in addition to that there's a commenter here from locals i want to
00:25:42.000 reply to directly, because I think this is very, very important. I am not a white ethno-nationalist.
00:25:50.140 Haiti, of course, is a black ethno-nationalist state. Other states, Israel, you know, is another
00:25:56.820 ethno-nationalistic territory. I am not. I'm going to read this comment. Please be careful of Joshua's
00:26:02.160 rhetoric. He's incredibly intelligent, but don't let yourself feel like a victim for being white.
00:26:06.120 That's what leftists do, not us. So, a couple things here. First and foremost,
00:26:12.000 often, as I've stated, the most common, I would say the mean, the average, and the mode,
00:26:23.020 the most common, anti-whites you'll find are other white people. There's a study,
00:26:28.020 which I cite in Haitians of Springfield, and you might have seen elsewhere, sort of this
00:26:31.300 bar graph of one's racial self-esteem. How well do you esteem your race? And they do it by race,
00:26:38.840 and then political, let's say ideological affiliation. Okay. So you've got like black
00:26:42.820 liberals esteem themselves very highly. Black conservatives, very highly. Hispanic liberals
00:26:46.960 and conservatives, very highly. White conservatives, you know, just, just above the
00:26:51.940 me, yeah, we're, we're, we're, we're pretty cool. You know, we're pretty cool. White liberals is deep
00:26:57.280 into the negative of self-hate of their own race. So I am explicitly anti, anti-white.
00:27:07.360 yeah i'm anti anti-white and i realized that i may not see race but race sees me
00:27:19.540 do you know what happened when haiti was founded the founding the founding fathers of haiti
00:27:24.600 they engage in a voodoo blood sacrifice of slaughtering a pig and consuming its flesh
00:27:32.120 spreading the bathing in the blood of the animal as they do to this day in Haiti, and credible
00:27:39.340 reports of this happening all over Springfield, of course. I talk about this in the book. As bad
00:27:44.120 as you can imagine, it's so much worse, and it goes back not to 2024, but to 2020 was the first
00:27:49.780 documented voodoo ritual involving the laceration and disembowelment of whatnot animals happening in
00:27:56.120 Springfield voodoo ritual, which, by the way, was found by a family that ministers to the Haitians,
00:28:01.600 and would help them get set up with, you know, if they were pregnant, helping them with maternity
00:28:06.120 care, translating into Portuguese for them, doing like little fundraisers to like pay for it, to get
00:28:11.820 their gas turned back on, get water, teaching them like how to use a toilet. Okay, I'm not even
00:28:16.780 kidding people. I'm not even kidding. And these are the people who are condemned for being racist
00:28:23.060 by the people who are now protesting the deportation of Haitians. The families of Springfield
00:28:27.720 who took care of the Haitians, who took them in, who set them up, who ministered to them.
00:28:32.780 Many of them converted them away from this voodoo nonsense and into a Christian faith,
00:28:37.720 okay? They're the ones who tell me all the pro-Haiti first protesters, none of them were
00:28:42.740 anywhere to be found when the Haitians actually needed help. So they don't have empathy. They
00:28:47.460 just hate white people. Now coming back to the earlier point, Haiti was founded with this voodoo
00:28:53.700 blood sacrifice, calling forth these spirits as revenge. And all of those who were participating
00:28:59.080 in this revolution in Haiti, their command one to another was kill all whites. That is the spirit
00:29:08.680 of the South African communist revolution, by the way, ushered in 1994. We talked about that in the
00:29:14.000 Inhumans book. We have a second edition coming out in a few weeks also on the matter and a number of
00:29:18.200 other things like the anti-white racism, discrimination, and activism that has now
00:29:23.480 been enshrined so that white Americans don't have the same civil rights or constitutional rights as
00:29:30.320 other races, and that's now state law in various places. That's a bit of a problem. You know, I came
00:29:37.640 to become racially conscious when I, many of you know I used to be liberal. Part of my story is the
00:29:44.180 2019 appearance I had on Scott Adams, Coffee with Scott Adams on Periscope, where I shared with him
00:29:50.780 how he specifically deprogrammed me from Trump derangement syndrome. And one thing I was not
00:29:56.000 ready to quite share yet at that time that I am now, and this is my impetus for writing about the
00:30:00.920 Haitian situation, is having a small child, having a small boy, you know, I'm white, their mother is
00:30:08.380 white. And I realized I'm hanging around these liberals and talk about, oh, I just hate white
00:30:16.400 people. White people are so awful. Oh, my God. I just hate white people. Oh, white people,
00:30:20.800 just white things. I'm actually like totally like genocide. And I'm sitting here thinking,
00:30:25.200 you're talking about my son. And it was that awakening that anti-whiteness has been so
00:30:34.340 normalized, has been made so cool even and whatnot that you've got, look at all these Ohioans around
00:30:42.020 the corner. There's hundreds of them here to protest. Hate has no home here. We love our
00:30:47.540 Haitian neighbors. No human is illegal. And they're protesting on behalf of a culture
00:30:53.860 whose history, whose spirit is white genocide, ethnic cleansing.
00:31:01.400 I was interviewed for the Unhumans book, by the way,
00:31:04.340 by a descendant of one of the only survivors of the white genocide.
00:31:08.960 It was an infant.
00:31:11.500 Parents, whole family murdered.
00:31:14.420 This is what they do every single time, like I say, in Unhumans.
00:31:17.200 It was a communist revolution that took over Haiti.
00:31:22.000 Very few survived.
00:31:23.160 One of them was a baby who was transported by a slave woman,
00:31:28.820 a black slave woman who was moved with a very rare for the culture compassion probably after
00:31:35.900 witnessing her siblings and parents being done away with by machetes and swords amazing and she
00:31:44.140 was moved with compassion and she fled and she went to what is now new orleans and this woman
00:31:52.480 that i was interviewed by about the inhumans book wanted to add that uh a story so i share her
00:31:58.640 family story, family history is one of the only survivors of the white genocide of Haiti. And by
00:32:05.540 the way, people call it like the first black republic. You know what happened as soon as the
00:32:10.500 country got independence and an imperial dictatorship was instituted and the very
00:32:17.920 people who had fought for freedom were re-enslaved and put back on the sugarcane plantations
00:32:22.900 by the new emperor.
00:32:24.900 It was never a republic.
00:32:26.840 You need to know that it has been always
00:32:28.340 such a state of chaos
00:32:29.820 that the United States Marine Corps
00:32:32.440 occupied it during the interwar period
00:32:35.300 between World War I and World War II.
00:32:37.660 And the United States Marine Corps
00:32:38.740 reported mass cannibalism,
00:32:42.180 human sacrifice,
00:32:45.740 voodoo rituals involving human flesh and whatnot.
00:32:48.420 And you can read United States Marine Corps
00:32:50.200 official reports from that time
00:32:52.260 that their Haitian allies, they did not get along at all. And many returned traumatized in the same
00:32:57.580 way that global war on terror veterans in Afghanistan, working with their allies, saw
00:33:01.800 horrific, horrific conditions for women and children. And many of them, unfortunately,
00:33:09.760 succumbed to suicide because they were ordered to protect this horrific abuse. But it's just
00:33:15.880 their culture so it's okay and the story of the Haitians of Springfield is it's it's no not all
00:33:22.940 cultures are created equal the reason Haiti is all of these things that it is is because Haitians
00:33:29.760 live there want to see your rewards go further now at Shell scene plus members can fill up on

00:34:01.760 White people are not safe in Haiti. There's not a filmmaker who went there on a vacation and was
00:34:10.960 document his experiences i cite this in the book and he befriends a number of haitians who
00:34:15.920 immediately betray him uh kidnap him and attempt to extort him and his family out of a significant
00:34:21.840 amount of money under pain of torture that's the white experience in haiti to this day and as i
00:34:30.080 said before not all haitians okay okay for the internet i have to say not all not all haitians
00:34:37.280 I would just say in support of what you're saying, that if you go on X right now, and you search with quotes, the phrase, I hate white people, you will see an endless stream of posts from people saying exactly that with very little other context.
00:34:52.900 It's not I'm not like cherry picking out of context. Some of them will be that where they'll call out some bad behavior. But but a lot of them are just literally people saying I hate white people. And some of it will be conservatives calling it out to now. But like a lot of it is literally just somebody saying I hate white people. And I would guarantee without ever having done it, that if you go over to Blue Sky, it's probably even more.
00:35:15.540 Oh, forget it. So you guys, Blue Sky is the counter platform to X. So X, when Elon took it
00:35:24.900 over, the Democrat liberal crybabies were like, oh my God, we can't stay here. So they created
00:35:31.280 Blue Sky and that's where they're doing their posting. So listen, it's fascinating. And
00:35:39.240 i i just urge everybody to order uh joshua's book and um like let's keep following up with this
00:35:48.380 and i do want to pivot if you guys don't mind because um i have some questions joshua it
00:35:55.980 started because i was wait you guys interstitial sip everybody let's have a let's have a quick
00:36:01.180 midway set here we go mm-hmm joshua i was scrolling your timeline and i don't know much
00:36:11.040 about this lindsey i don't know her last name case where she may or may not have killed her
00:36:18.040 three children there's a court case going on about it no i'm not saying it doesn't matter
00:36:22.420 clancy is that clancy lindsey clancy okay so i don't want to get into that because it's just
00:36:28.920 too much but i was like kind of giggling i'm like oh joshua's got like a theme going now on his
00:36:34.780 timeline about like you know women and this and that and i was like listen i got these two guys
00:36:41.080 here and you're both fathers but you are a father joshua to younger children and owen's kids are
00:36:51.340 college and older. And so I thought, let's just see what is going on with the guys in the world
00:37:00.660 right now and relationships. And I want the chat to get involved too and throw your answers in
00:37:07.280 there and your opinions on all platforms. So I don't know, I was just giggling because it was
00:37:14.360 making me think about, you know, Scott would get cynical a lot about relationships and marriage and
00:37:19.740 Prisoner Island and all of these things. So I just have a few questions I want to ask to both
00:37:26.160 of you. Okay. And if you guys want to, it's up to you, what kind of background do you want to give
00:37:31.360 like your marital status, uh, the age of your kids or the gender of your kids? That's up to you.
00:37:38.160 I mean, most of us have a general idea. Um, but I wanted to say, uh, I'll go to you first,
00:37:44.300 owen um very simply do you think men are happier now than they were like 10 or 20 years ago
00:37:52.460 which men are you asking about men or or in a particular generation biological no like the men
00:38:00.840 today um in general do you think they're happier today than they were before no i don't um i mean
00:38:09.200 I think to me, there's a lot of more division and I think some of it has come out of the
00:38:16.040 political divide that, as Scott pointed out, you know, women went further left and more
00:38:24.700 liberal.
00:38:25.940 And I think men, according to the statistics, I think are probably about the same amount
00:38:30.260 of conservative versus liberal as they were before.
00:38:32.460 It wasn't as radical of a shift, but I think there is a much bigger difference now in terms
00:38:39.080 the political stuff. And some of that had to do with Trump. But that I think has caused some
00:38:44.700 issues in relationships where people have these different views and they end up having different
00:38:50.380 values and that makes it harder for them to get along. Now, I think there's plenty of people that
00:38:54.320 find ways around that or find a good match. I've been married almost 30 years. We do have
00:39:02.020 different political views and we just kind of stay away from that stuff. And that seems to work
00:39:06.940 all right but i think um you know and my older son has a long-term girlfriend and they seem to
00:39:14.280 be doing great and i don't know anything about their political differences or similarities but
00:39:18.900 you know so people do find each other it's not like nobody's getting along but i do think it's
00:39:23.720 harder i mean all the stories i hear at least are that it's a lot harder for people to find people
00:39:28.280 that are a good match and i think there's other trends that are coming into play because now it's
00:39:34.240 like 60 percent or something of college students are women and that has been going on long enough
00:39:39.220 now that there's more women who have professional type jobs like post-college type jobs and there
00:39:45.580 I saw a story just recently that there's a lot more women that are marrying men without college
00:39:50.980 degrees and that kind of flips the earning situation where now the breadwinner is the woman
00:39:56.920 and that's obviously different than all of tradition and history in the past where it's
00:40:02.520 always been that the breadwinner and the provider was the man. And I don't know what that's going to
00:40:06.820 do, but it doesn't sound like something that's going to be easy to adjust to. So I think if
00:40:11.240 you're asking just like, are we better off or happier now than before? I would say, no, I don't
00:40:15.720 think so in general. I mean, again, I can't speak for all men, but I would say that to me, the trend
00:40:21.140 has been negative. Okay. And so Joshua, same question, but I'm going to ask you guys just to
00:40:28.720 keep the answers a little bit shorter so we can get through more questions okay because i have
00:40:33.520 so many well that was helpful owen we know now we know more about him in this world in a little
00:40:38.000 little micro memoir live in real time so go ahead joshua
00:40:46.240 oh all right i'll go yes yes so um so i have three children uh let's see eight three and a half
00:40:51.440 and just turn two the the younger two are kind of like an irish twins type situation it's it's
00:40:57.600 wonderful uh i love being a dad i would be a full-time stay-at-home dad i think if i could
00:41:02.320 if that option was on the table for me i love it i love it so much this is why it irks and kind of
00:41:06.960 depresses me to see so many particularly moms homemakers stay-at-home moms say oh it's hardest
00:41:15.360 job in the world oh it's so stressful oh the mental load the emotional we have no idea and
00:41:20.720 every time i'm with my children it is even like care caregiving making them meals going grocery
00:41:27.920 shopping household chores this is like and other men who have who have little children at home they
00:41:34.160 say the same thing it's like a vacation it's like a vacation you get to love these little human
00:41:42.240 beings who need you who want who love you it's it's like the best thing ever if if you're if
00:41:50.560 you're a man. It's the absolute best thing ever to have this little crew of people that you're
00:41:56.240 responsible for and get to take care of. And someone says, since Joshua was a vegan, I wonder
00:42:03.520 what his take on the Lindsey Clancy situation is. Yeah, a few of you have pieced my story together,
00:42:08.720 and you're right. Yeah, a few of you piece it together. That said, the experience I have
00:42:15.840 witnessing what's happening on on the timeline has has been as i have said it's been irksome
00:42:21.120 a bit depressing and frustrating and i i announced that a number of factors happening this past year
00:42:28.560 and this is this is my short answer okay a convergence of factors has resulted in a new
00:42:34.640 widespread cultural moment that is undeniable so we have all at once in approximately a five
00:42:39.840 business day period happening last week okay like monday through friday we had a number of factors
00:42:44.640 is happening all at once we had the wnba refusing to say what a woman was okay we plus all of the
00:42:51.640 anti-white hatred discrimination violence that is now being excused and saying she deserved it
00:42:56.820 of course we have interestingly caroline levin resigning from the white house so she can be a
00:43:02.500 stay-at-home mom because you can't do it all uh-oh at the same time aoc egg freezing because she does
00:43:10.800 want to have it all but apparently can't have it all at the same time dumping her ginger boyfriend
00:43:15.880 solidarity okay we also have that mega viral video of the matrimony in which the ceremony
00:43:25.780 in which the uh newlywed bride snaps at the husband and their officiant because he presumed
00:43:36.640 correctly that she would be taking his last name but no she's a girl boss she don't do that and so
00:43:43.800 that went mega viral that was of course a humiliation and everyone feels bad for and
00:43:48.420 ashamed of and pities uh the husband and we were taking bets on how many months that marriage lasts
00:43:53.260 uh and of course also have the lindsey clancy saga several other stories that are all kind of
00:44:02.700 Part of all this all happening all at once, this case of this mother who the defense admits
00:44:10.720 murdered with her own bare hands, her three children, that's not even in question.
00:44:17.400 And it's not even in question that she planned it so that the husband would be out of the
00:44:22.140 house.
00:44:23.220 And as she was in the process of the murders, she engaged with him, text via text and phone
00:44:28.980 to make sure he stayed out of the house because she wasn't done yet.
00:44:31.320 this demonstrates an obvious uh premeditation for this and normal people uh would think okay
00:44:43.780 uh this is a clear-cut case for capital punishment like obviously but then the crime truthers of
00:44:51.980 tiktok the facebook american conservative christian mothers that was my first sign of
00:44:58.720 Oh dear. Oh no. Where I see nothing but widespread defense across the political spectrum.
00:45:08.800 That could have been me. Men have no idea how hard it is. You don't understand what it's like
00:45:13.940 to be cooped up in a house with little children for eight hours a day. I totally could have done
00:45:18.120 that. I totally see myself in her. I relate to her. We need to have a national conversation
00:45:22.300 about postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis. And like everyone knows that hormonal
00:45:27.200 fluctuations are real, okay? Our dispute is it's a get-out-jail-free card for women only. And we
00:45:33.940 just, we can't have these two standards. Like Owen was saying, we've had double standards now
00:45:39.020 for some time, but now the standards are so extreme that the crime truthers are saying
00:45:48.100 the husband is responsible even though he wasn't there. And that's now the argument. He should
00:45:54.820 have done more. He should have supported her more. But you look at the facts of the case.
00:45:58.740 They had professional child care. They had schooling. He hired a nanny like house cleaner.
00:46:04.900 She took months away from work. He took months away from work with each of the pregnancies.
00:46:09.460 This woman was maximally supported to an extent that it's not possible to support someone more.
00:46:14.900 Access to all of the best medications and psychologists, psychiatrists, and care
00:46:18.500 in the world in the world that is available to someone this husband could not could literally
00:46:25.700 not have supported her more and his reward is his three dead children and yet somehow he's still to
00:46:32.100 blame all of these factors all happening all at once and seeing both the liberal and conservative
00:46:39.620 reaction to it tells us fifth wave feminism has begun and all that comes after now is in line
00:46:51.540 with that and it's distilled down to something like even when a woman does something bad she's
00:47:00.100 not at fault for it because there might be a man involved that we can assign blame to
00:47:04.740 so the double standards are now i think so far apart the delta is far apart that it very well
00:47:12.260 may result in reversals of progress of the previous four waves of feminism okay and then
00:47:20.340 i'm thinking of hayden panettiere who just passed away and so here's someone who obviously had
00:47:26.980 issues she had postpartum and she actually was like i need to give up my child like i'm gonna
00:47:32.900 going to give full custody to the baby's father. I can't do this. So, you know, there's, there's a
00:47:38.900 way around it. You guys, you know, you don't have to kill the kids, you know, just if, if need be
00:47:44.520 give up custody. I don't know what to tell you. It's, it's crazy. Um, so I fully agree that there's,
00:47:51.640 you know, because of social media, TikTok, yada, yada, there's definitely too many women that want
00:47:56.940 attention now. So they're like, I saw the one that you posted of the girl, like holding her baby
00:48:02.300 and you know just wrote like same lindsey like okay so yeah no there's a problem that's going
00:48:08.120 to be evidence against her in the divorce court and i i hope that she that she loses custody
00:48:13.500 sole custody to her son to be ex-husband i totally forgot about the massachusetts thing
00:48:18.120 also happened last week like abortion up to the the moment of uh of birth is now allowed
00:48:23.800 if planned parenthood says so you know 10th state to do that now yeah it's a 10th state so now we're
00:48:28.820 in double digits. This is, this is fifth wave feminism. It's going to be reframed as post-birth
00:48:35.300 abortion and maternal rights protections. And they're going to say my rights don't end at the
00:48:42.640 birth canal. All right. So to both of you, um, seeing that you're both older than 15,
00:48:50.660 what do you think men or, you know, uh, boys need to learn by the time they're 15,
00:48:57.920 that they're not learning now? So like 15, you know, you're like all hormonal and you're exploring
00:49:02.600 and you're this and that. Like, what do, what do young men need to know by the time they're 15,
00:49:07.220 Owen, that they're not being taught? I mean, that's kind of a hard question for me just
00:49:12.300 because I don't feel like I was taught much of anything by that age. I, you know, when I was 15,
00:49:18.100 I was what, starting high school, first starting to get involved with girls, still focused on school.
00:49:27.920 Uh, and I know that is different than, you know, historic, if you go back hundreds of
00:49:33.020 years, what it was like to be 15, you were preparing to be an adult and you were preparing
00:49:36.840 to go out in the workforce around that time.
00:49:39.260 Um, when I was 16, actually I did start working when I was 14.
00:49:43.620 Um, but that was my own initiative.
00:49:45.080 I just wanted to make some money and do that.
00:49:48.080 But I did that on my own.
00:49:49.100 I think if I go back to like our show with King Randall, I think a lot of those types
00:49:54.720 So things are important where just being productive, being useful, learning manners, learning how to interact with people, learning how to function in society and just getting on the right path.
00:50:07.840 To me, that's probably what I would be focusing on with people under 15 is just getting them to the point where they are on a good track to become a productive adult.
00:50:16.500 but other other than that i guess i would still be focused at least with my own kids if i had
00:50:21.200 young kids like that again i'd be focused on just getting them prepared to either go to college or
00:50:26.820 go into a trade or whatever the right path would be for them um but i still think i don't know in
00:50:33.160 my opinion 15 is a little young to be focusing on like you're you got to get out of the house
00:50:37.300 in a few years well there is some great advice happening in the chat over here especially from
00:50:43.220 Mike Burt, but some of you have really good advice. I like it. Okay. And Joshua, what do
00:50:49.300 you think? By the time the boys are 15, what's something that they really should grasp?
00:50:59.260 There's a number of, let's say, boxes to check of understanding and also things that you may not
00:51:04.540 quite understand yet, but you'll know that you need to understand before making that decision.
00:51:08.220 i think so often in our society and our culture from via parents via the school system and
00:51:13.920 entertainment and news media there's an expectation that you have to figure out your life by like 18
00:51:18.160 or something like that in college etc etc etc it is it is my opinion that the vast majority of young
00:51:24.660 men do they ought to go to college this is the opposite of the conservative uh social conservative
00:51:31.280 position the trad cons but i'm not a trad con am i and the reason being it is in college where that
00:51:39.680 that buys yourself a little bit of time in order to figure out a number of very very important
00:51:44.160 things and so preparation for the period of preparation i believe is what is best for 15
00:51:51.920 year olds um i think a little bit of pessimism and pragmatism will go a long way at this age
00:51:59.120 of understanding, like, here's what the world's really going to be like. Here's what, for example,
00:52:04.880 college is really going to be like. Here's what the economy is really like. Here is what the
00:52:11.480 dating pool available to you is really like. And here's the good, here's the bad, and here's the
00:52:18.980 ugly. That sense of awareness, but also some internal expectation of the direction I'm
00:52:26.840 probably going to go so I can start setting myself up in that direction. Now I was homeschooled so I
00:52:31.880 was a high school senior at 15. So from my perspective that's like senior and now you're
00:52:36.460 looking on towards college at this point. Since I was about 10 years old I wanted to be a novelist
00:52:43.000 and it turns out that that's exactly what I do to this day. But I realized that great non-fiction
00:52:49.100 reads like fiction. Good fiction reads like non-fiction. So in The Great Twist of Irony I'm
00:52:54.140 writing novels every single day and have written like 130 at this point. Nonfiction, right? But
00:52:58.800 it has to read like fiction with the same compelling storytelling and narrative and blah,
00:53:02.720 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So I would tell the 15 year old, what is it that you wanted to do
00:53:06.720 since you were 10? And then expand that up into the adult economy and what people are going to pay
00:53:12.880 for, it seems. And what's the direction that you might want to go? So in my case, I chose
00:53:19.360 communications degrees because I would, I would be doing a lot of what? Writing practice on all
00:53:27.020 manner of different subjects, essays and research and rhetoric and speech and debate I did at
00:53:32.140 university. Like I, I, even though the substance of the classes wasn't particularly practical,
00:53:37.660 it was a, almost like an apprenticeship for four years. I got an associate's degree and then a
00:53:44.080 bachelor's degree. And the focus was basically writing for every single class on different
00:53:49.940 subjects. So, and at the same time, I began freelance writing. And so doing this in academics,
00:53:58.660 doing this professionally, I was a teenager when I started freelance writing and getting paid to
00:54:02.520 write. That gave me a significant head start. So the 15 year old, I would say, what is it you've
00:54:09.620 wanted to do since you were 10 and then what is the what is the minimum viable smallest scale
00:54:15.300 way you can study that in university at a cheap university you can go to go to okay you're you're
00:54:22.000 in southwest iowa go to cincinnati state you know community college okay it's fine it's fine pick
00:54:26.420 pick public university okay you want to go to like you know wharton or whatever for for your for your
00:54:31.600 your graduate okay that's fine but you don't have to go into in debt getting an ethnic studies degree
00:54:37.240 from you know uh yale okay you don't gotta do it you can do it for for thousands um i was able to
00:54:43.320 pay for the vast majority of my all of my college with scholarships academic scholarships and other
00:54:48.600 stuff that were available and my mom put in a couple thousand dollars i think like two thousand
00:54:52.760 dollars total is all that my family paid for my two degrees i the rest i covered with yeah it was
00:54:58.520 like two thousand dollars for my first year i think everything else paid for the academic
00:55:02.680 of scholarships because I picked the cheapest schools, right? And that's okay. That's okay.
00:55:10.500 I believe that every young man needs to go to college because, in addition, you tend to meet
00:55:17.760 the people that you can work for, work with, get you in at their workforce. My brother got set up
00:55:28.340 on what at this point has been a decade plus long career track because one of his classmates
00:55:34.980 got an internship and she kind of liked him and wanted to work with him because he's cute
00:55:40.260 and then he gets a decade plus long career path from that josh never learned how to make a concise
00:55:47.060 answer my profession is to turn 500 word blog posts into 50 000 word books you get what you pay for
00:55:53.620 joshua what schools did you go to sinclair college in dayton wright state university
00:56:00.640 also in in dayton which is a big engineering school there's
00:56:04.040 it's i will say also without additional context it's the dallas fort worth airport
00:56:10.140 wink wink wright state university is uh and then california state university long beach
00:56:15.120 after that for my for the ghost their ghost writing program okay good um andy owen wants
00:56:21.480 i mean handy is asking owen can owen talk about how he got recruited into the cia from college
00:56:29.960 i was never recruited by the cia but my father was and uh according to my father he turned it down
00:56:37.320 to marry my mother because they told him he couldn't get married for a certain number of
00:56:40.840 years at least if he joined the cia but he was very close to taking the offer he was he had a
00:56:45.640 proper position in the department of agriculture he was going to be a russian spy it was all set
00:56:50.680 to go and then he uh backed out of it or that's the story i've been told my whole life that's your
00:56:56.600 cover story that they gave you we get it he didn't he didn't work at the department of agriculture
00:57:01.100 i'll say that so whatever his cover position supposedly was he never took that job so are
00:57:06.220 you and tucker brothers tucker carlson's dad your dad no um oh my gosh all right you guys please i
00:57:16.900 have a thousand questions but we only have time for one more quick question for each one of you
00:57:22.120 um owen i'll start with you what and joshua you're going to get a different question okay
00:57:29.080 owen quickly what is one thing you wish women understood about men
00:57:34.080 owen you want to go first yeah that's a i mean it's a tough one i guess it's just that
00:57:40.980 You know, we really do. I don't know. I mean, it's like some of it, I guess I would point to a lot of what Alison Armstrong has taught me about myself, that we go through these stages in life, that it's kind of like, you know, we want to become, we want to build our domain.
00:58:01.060 We want to provide for that domain, but like have our, whether it's a career, a family,
00:58:08.100 whatever it is, we want to, you know, build that and then have that be kind of our purpose
00:58:13.200 in life.
00:58:13.860 And I don't know if I could quickly go into it in any more detail, but I just, I found
00:58:18.980 a lot, found out a lot about myself by listening to that and sort of seeing the development
00:58:24.720 path of men.
00:58:25.900 And I think there is a lot that women could learn just by reading and listening to Alison
00:58:30.800 Armstrong about how men typically develop through the stages of their life where they start out as
00:58:36.480 like a page in her terms and then become a prince where they're trying to build their domain and
00:58:40.920 then they become eventually a king, kind of ruling over their domain in some ways. I mean, it's not
00:58:45.640 meant to be like a dictatorship the way she talks about it, but it's like, you know, they kind of
00:58:49.980 develop in these different stages. And I think that is very different than women. Okay. And Joshua,
00:58:54.840 Well, your question is, what you wish men understood about women?
00:59:01.060 And I just, unfortunately, I do need to go.
00:59:03.060 So I will bow off here.
00:59:04.660 Thanks.
00:59:05.580 Thanks, Ellen.
00:59:06.200 It glitched when you asked the question.
00:59:07.900 Sorry, Eric.
00:59:08.940 It said, the question is, what you wish men understood about women?
00:59:18.960 I know it's loaded.
00:59:21.560 Well, I have a son and I have two daughters.
00:59:24.840 And right around 18 months or so, I've observed a divergence in men versus women, boys versus girls.
00:59:35.500 And it's certainly nature.
00:59:38.080 It's not nurture.
00:59:42.880 What I wish men would know about women is we don't have to control their emotions.
00:59:50.700 Their emotional states are not our responsibility.
00:59:54.840 I think so often with how simpy Western men are, to be frank, there's a sense of whatever you want,
01:00:02.500 honey, I'll make it better for you. You know, your tears are my command type of thing. But I think
01:00:10.000 women appreciate it when her man, and that is the men within her space, that could be
01:00:21.040 husband, fiancé, boyfriend, father, older brothers, for example. I think women appreciate it
01:00:27.540 when the men that they're around don't buckle. They have a spine. They don't say whatever you
01:00:34.260 want, honey, because then it's like the emotional turmoil is now in charge. You know, one aspect of
01:00:42.500 this sort of discourse right now in the gender slop is about postpartum depression, and the
01:00:48.280 hormonal change is often associated with that. I don't know. And there, there are some hyper hyperbole
01:00:53.820 out there, but largely I don't think that, uh, anyone is denying its existence. It is ripe for
01:01:00.940 fraud because it's a self-diagnose. You don't act like you can tell your physician that you have
01:01:05.720 PPD and now they give you a psychotic medication as a result of that self-diagnosis. I think that's,
01:01:12.140 that can be an issue with, with, with fraud because it's not verifiable. Um, I think that
01:01:17.460 it would probably be helpful to the man in your life if you both got your hormones checked.
01:01:21.700 Get your male hormonal profile, your female hormonal profile. Because we are, as Scott always
01:01:27.200 like to say, moist robots. And part of our parts, our circuitry, etc., is our internal hormonal
01:01:35.800 experiences. And because I think men are very much like fact and logic and reason and cause and
01:01:42.200 effect and linear thinkers so often, and that can often be
01:01:46.700 antisocial, unfortunately, seeing it, oh, wow, everything
01:01:51.080 you're saying, it's, it's, it's like Han Solo in The Force
01:01:53.900 Awakens. It's true, all of it, when you see the hormonal
01:01:57.440 profile, and then now he can be helpful, rather than try to,
01:02:01.220 let's say, either neglect or deny a woman's emotional
01:02:05.700 difficulties, and whatnot, and her and her and her role in her
01:02:08.780 lived experience.
01:02:12.200 But if we're trying to, like, one-up one another and then there's the inter-gender conflict, that's not going to happen.
01:02:21.400 But the TLDR is that a woman's internal world affects her external world, and she doesn't need you to submit to her internal experiences because then who can she trust?
01:02:36.540 It says, now, you know what?
01:02:37.440 Now there's two women with big feelings.
01:02:40.300 mm-hmm all right women do you agree with that assessment i i basically do and for me i like
01:02:48.940 male and female traditional roles and i want the male to be the male you know like to be strong
01:02:56.140 you know you could be you could have like sympathy or understanding or caring but
01:03:01.020 you know you don't have to freak out because i'm freaking out you know just stay strong that's
01:03:05.100 That's for me. All right. So we did it, Joshua. Thanks for playing along. And you guys, I hope
