The Charlie Kirk Show - THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 78 — Morning Routines? Great Pyramid Secrets? Snow Woke?

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, Thought Crime Saturday.

00:00:01.000 What is your morning routine?

00:00:03.000 Well, you might not be able to see it, but I put a banana on my face and put my head in cold water.

00:00:08.000 What? That's right.

00:00:10.000 All on this Thought Crime Saturday.

00:00:12.000 Also, are there cities underneath the pyramids?

00:00:15.000 We try to get Blake to even give an inch on the fact that...

00:00:18.000 Aliens might have built some of the ancient civilizations, that and more.

00:00:29.000 Buckle up, everybody.

00:00:30.000 Here we go.

00:00:31.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:33.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

00:00:35.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:38.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:42.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:43.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:44.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:00:46.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:00:52.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:01:01.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:29.000 Okay everybody, it is Thought Crime Thursday.

00:01:32.000 We have Blake, we have Tyler, we have Jack, and we all have Saratoga water.

00:01:36.000 And bananas.

00:01:39.000 I am proud because I'm actually the one that finally sent a topic to Thought Crime that was a little bit like a pop culture thing.

00:01:45.000 You were finally hip and with it.

00:01:47.000 I was finally hip and with it.

00:01:50.000 And... It's a great, it is such an outrageous viral video.

00:01:54.000 There should be entire PhD classes taught on this.

00:01:57.000 What I love is how just the X version, where it did not originate, has more, like, ten times more views than, like, the most viral Donald Trump post during the election.

00:02:06.000 It originated on Instagram, right?

00:02:07.000 I believe so.

00:02:09.000 Is this better than the Tucker launch?

00:02:12.000 Probably. It actually may be...

00:02:15.000 Has there been a tweet that's broken a billion before?

00:02:18.000 Because this one might end up breaking a billion.

00:02:20.000 So Jack doesn't even know about this video unless he's trolling us.

00:02:23.000 But this thing...

00:02:24.000 You haven't ID'd it, but also I'm not really sure.

00:02:27.000 It's the Saratoga video, Jack.

00:02:30.000 Oh, yeah.

00:02:30.000 I love the Saratoga along with my banana every single day.

00:02:33.000 That's what we just were saying.

00:02:35.000 So... And so, when I first saw this video, I was hysterically laughing.

00:02:41.000 I had to watch it five or six times.

00:02:44.000 Because it is the ultimate fake influencer where you do absolutely nothing for four or five hours.

00:02:52.000 Nothing. I think what really struck me with this is we've seen so many female versions of this. 0.98

00:02:58.000 You see all the female versions, but this is the first real... 1.00

00:03:04.000 Male version that went super viral.

00:03:06.000 This has 750 million views.

00:03:08.000 750 million.

00:03:09.000 That's crazy.

00:03:10.000 And it's so outrageous.

00:03:11.000 He wakes up at like 3.53.

00:03:13.000 We'll show the video.

00:03:14.000 He takes off the little tape of his mouth and he does nothing for four hours.

00:03:19.000 You gotta wake up at 3 a.m. so that you can do a little bit of exercise and put tape on your mouth.

00:03:24.000 And the guy is built like Hercules.

00:03:26.000 Yeah. I mean, he's built unbelievably well.

00:03:28.000 And part of...

00:03:30.000 Part of his, like, routine is just sitting and, like, journaling to himself.

00:03:34.000 And journaling about nothing.

00:03:36.000 Alright. This video has gone so viral.

00:03:38.000 Let's cut 324.

00:03:47.000 Saratoga water gets me.

00:03:49.000 I love Saratoga water.

00:03:51.000 It's relatable.

00:03:57.000 Instead of icing.

00:04:02.000 I'll do it.

00:04:03.000 You can't get it on any electronics.

00:04:05.000 How do we have two?

00:04:09.000 For you.

00:04:10.000 I already, I already done.

00:04:11.000 We're going to see mine in a moment.

00:04:13.000 Preaching about the arrival of Christ.

00:04:15.000 Thank you.

00:04:24.000 Thank you.

00:04:26.000 So on podcasting, someone narrate this as this is happening.

00:04:29.000 So, I mean, he's going through his morning routine, which includes dunking his face in water.

00:04:34.000 He, like, goes in.

00:04:35.000 Is this where he's going to go swimming?

00:04:38.000 So he does, like, three separate workouts in a highly inefficient way.

00:04:43.000 My favorite is how long, like, the time before he dives in and then by the time he hits the water.

00:04:47.000 Yeah, the time is updating.

00:04:49.000 Yeah, it's like four minutes in the air as he dives into the pool.

00:04:52.000 He's doing all of his, like...

00:04:54.000 I thought it was weird while he was putting on his shorts, someone was standing there handing him his towel.

00:04:57.000 He's very...

00:04:57.000 Who's filming this whole...

00:04:58.000 The whole thing is, like, all very...

00:05:00.000 Yeah, like, the number of times where he has to set up his camera to, like, catch this.

00:05:03.000 He's doing his calisthenics.

00:05:06.000 He's got to take his shirt off that he was laboriously putting on.

00:05:09.000 He goes...

00:05:09.000 He's just doing wind sprints in, like, an empty parking lot.

00:05:12.000 Yeah, he goes and sprints outside, which, before that...

00:05:14.000 Where does he live, by the way?

00:05:15.000 Do we know?

00:05:16.000 It has to be.

00:05:21.000 More Saratoga water.

00:05:22.000 The only way someone acts like this and does this is in LA.

00:05:25.000 There's only one place.

00:05:28.000 And then he showers after all this.

00:05:29.000 Gets another banana.

00:05:31.000 More bananas.

00:05:32.000 Puts it on his skin.

00:05:34.000 Yeah. Yeah.

00:05:38.000 Thank you.

00:05:41.000 No, someone served it.

00:05:42.000 No, a chef made it. 0.93

00:05:43.000 So is this guy like a celebrity otherwise?

00:05:46.000 Oh yeah, no, he's like a professional influencer.

00:05:50.000 You've made your first 10,000.

00:05:52.000 Congratulations. We gotta do at least 20, bro.

00:05:54.000 He's like a self-help coach.

00:05:56.000 Alright, I gotta dunk my head in some cold water.

00:05:59.000 Yeah, that's how you prove that you're worthy.

00:06:03.000 Did you squirt in the lemons, right?

00:06:05.000 No, we have to squirt in the lemons.

00:06:07.000 He squirted in the lemons, I think, if I'm not mistaken.

00:06:09.000 You did it wrong.

00:06:10.000 Now you'll never be a top-tier.

00:06:11.000 Why did I do it wrong?

00:06:11.000 You'll never be a top-tier influencer now.

00:06:14.000 You also have to pour in some of the Saratoga water and mix it in so that you can get the transcendent properties of the water from Saratoga Springs.

00:06:22.000 Now, you've got to mix it with your hands a bit.

00:06:24.000 No, it's disgusting.

00:06:25.000 You've got to mix it with your hands.

00:06:26.000 You're not doing it right if you don't.

00:06:28.000 No, no, you've got to stick them in.

00:06:29.000 Did he really do that?

00:06:30.000 Yes, he did.

00:06:31.000 Wait, you put your hands in something that's about to go on your face?

00:06:34.000 Yeah. He's defiant.

00:06:37.000 You'll never be a top influencer now.

00:06:40.000 You will never make it now.

00:06:44.000 You look at it wrong.

00:06:45.000 I look better, right?

00:06:46.000 It's like a magic spell.

00:06:48.000 You look like a black influencer from LA now. 0.82

00:06:50.000 That's what you look like. 0.91

00:06:55.000 Now you don't.

00:06:56.000 Charlie, you should do your next...

00:06:58.000 We're not done.

00:06:59.000 You should do your next campus thing and just show up with tape.

00:07:04.000 You're rubbing a banana on your face.

00:07:06.000 Wait, did he do that?

00:07:07.000 Yes, he did!

00:07:08.000 He rubbed the banana on his face?

00:07:09.000 I saw the peel.

00:07:10.000 What's the point of this?

00:07:12.000 He rubbed the banana on his face.

00:07:14.000 I think it was the peel.

00:07:15.000 No, I think it was the actual banana.

00:07:17.000 Can we get an instant replay?

00:07:20.000 We need someone to investigate this.

00:07:22.000 This is going to be mean.

00:07:24.000 No, it was definitely a banana.

00:07:26.000 This is going to be a meme for years.

00:07:28.000 We're told it was the peel.

00:07:29.000 Charlie's rubbing banana all over his face.

00:07:33.000 Is this really what he did?

00:07:36.000 What is the health property of this?

00:07:39.000 It's really funny.

00:07:42.000 I think it's something...

00:07:44.000 I think I read somewhere like you eat the peel.

00:07:47.000 What? No, no, you don't eat the peel.

00:07:49.000 No, someone says that... 0.91

00:07:50.000 Someone deranged.

00:07:53.000 It looks like people from all across the political spectrum are done.

00:07:57.000 Is this supposed to be...

00:07:58.000 It actually makes my skin...

00:07:59.000 It actually feels like lotion.

00:08:00.000 I think that's...

00:08:00.000 It's cheap.

00:08:02.000 It's cheap.

00:08:04.000 It doesn't taste very good, I'll tell you that.

00:08:06.000 This guy...

00:08:07.000 One more time.

00:08:09.000 Whoa! I mean, it has to be like ice bath type thing, right?

00:08:12.000 Is that supposed to tighten up your face?

00:08:14.000 Oh, no, no, no.

00:08:15.000 That's what it has.

00:08:16.000 Isn't there collagen or whatever in bananas?

00:08:18.000 Is that why?

00:08:19.000 Like that stuff they put in coffee?

00:08:21.000 Isn't this a collagen thing?

00:08:22.000 Collagen is a peptide.

00:08:24.000 But isn't there collagen in banana peels or something?

00:08:26.000 Yeah, collagen's good for your skin.

00:08:27.000 Yeah, so I think that's why.

00:08:28.000 This is a big collagen thing.

00:08:29.000 So anyway...

00:08:30.000 Is this the secret to black skin? 1.00

00:08:32.000 Maybe. Why it don't crack?

00:08:34.000 We'll have to see if you crack.

00:08:35.000 So one of the ways people have responded to this is...

00:08:38.000 I haven't had a banana in a while.

00:08:38.000 Wait, so I don't put the banana on my skin?

00:08:40.000 They've been making videos of their own...

00:08:42.000 People have been making videos of their own daily routines.

00:08:46.000 Like Michael Knowles did one that was pretty funny.

00:08:49.000 Michael's was great.

00:08:50.000 Yeah, his was quite good.

00:08:51.000 Michael's was hilarious.

00:08:51.000 I actually laughed out loud.

00:08:53.000 But there was a lot of demand.

00:08:54.000 They were saying, you know, Tyler could do one, but he said he was too busy.

00:08:58.000 You could have done one, but you were pretty busy.

00:09:00.000 So instead...

00:09:01.000 Now serve me food.

00:09:03.000 So instead...

00:09:04.000 Yeah, make breakfast.

00:09:05.000 They created one.

00:09:06.000 They asked me to create one.

00:09:08.000 So I did a video of my daily routine, which is what I do every single day.

00:09:12.000 It involves you of just taking food from other people?

00:09:14.000 It involves me.

00:09:15.000 This is what I do every single day.

00:09:17.000 And it's about what you'd expect.

00:09:19.000 Super accurate.

00:09:20.000 Let's play clip 330.

00:09:24.000 There's no audio.

00:09:26.000 I mean, they took out the audio.

00:09:29.000 There wasn't any audio.

00:09:30.000 It was just him being quietly doing it.

00:09:32.000 What is this, like some homeless guy?

00:09:34.000 What is this?

00:09:35.000 You have to narrate it, Blake.

00:09:36.000 This is a podcast.

00:09:37.000 This is me daily making...

00:09:38.000 Okay, I have to make my boba tea every single morning.

00:09:40.000 You don't get up there.

00:09:41.000 You don't get up there.

00:09:42.000 Don't call it boba.

00:09:42.000 Yeah, no, I don't.

00:09:43.000 And then I walk and then I have to go at maximum intensity on every single exercise machine while in my full dress without changing clothes.

00:09:50.000 Wait, is that the gym at your place?

00:09:52.000 Yes. I didn't know you guys had a gym there.

00:09:53.000 Yeah, it's not a very good one.

00:09:54.000 And then I stand on the balcony aimlessly and I stare at our lovely Turning Point campus for a bit.

00:09:59.000 And then I dunk my face in ice cold water, which is properly stirred with my hands as ordained by the video.

00:10:05.000 That's true.

00:10:06.000 And then I read my book about Ming China.

00:10:08.000 And then I go to Quick Trip to get the largest possible soda size because I need to have as much diet soda as possible.

00:10:15.000 Then I go and I bench.

00:10:17.000 My good bench press.

00:10:18.000 So this isn't the Turning Point gym.

00:10:19.000 That is the Turning Point gym.

00:10:20.000 You have to have two workouts a day, two ways they call them.

00:10:23.000 And you have a Diet Dr. Pepper that I pilfer from Turning Point Action.

00:10:27.000 Then I go and I update every single one of our tweet followers.

00:10:32.000 I nap on the couch face down the proper way.

00:10:34.000 Then I go and I get more sodas from Turning Point.

00:10:38.000 And then I have to take the tape off of my face that I have been wearing.

00:10:42.000 This is hilarious.

00:10:44.000 And I think we have sound in this upcoming hour.

00:10:46.000 Emperor Charles V, his idea was...

00:10:49.000 I have to lecture everyone about, you know, the Ministry of Japan, the Ministry of the Civil War.

00:10:57.000 So what General Lee thought was that if he could capture their position on Cemetery...

00:11:01.000 This is actually what Blake does, though, over at our office.

00:11:03.000 This is very real.

00:11:04.000 No, this is actually over at the Turning Point office.

00:11:07.000 This is what Blake does.

00:11:08.000 He comes over and I can just hear him talking.

00:11:10.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:11:10.000 It's great.

00:11:12.000 Wait, where was the part where you bookmarked Koran stuff?

00:11:16.000 I have to do that at home.

00:11:17.000 Oh. That wasn't part of your death.

00:11:19.000 And also, I mean, it wasn't seen.

00:11:20.000 You couldn't see what I was doing on my computer.

00:11:22.000 My skin feels great.

00:11:23.000 It actually would have been funny if you put in there that you turn on Netflix.

00:11:27.000 Oh, that's not possible because I do not subscribe.

00:11:30.000 You would have turned on your Hulu account.

00:11:32.000 No Hulu account, no subscriptions to anything.

00:11:36.000 If you don't subscribe to anything, you can accomplish anything.

00:11:39.000 There is something about this window into the morning routine.

00:11:44.000 That video especially, and yours is hilarious, Blake, is so outrageous, which is one of the reasons why it went viral.

00:11:52.000 The guy literally does nothing for the entire day.

00:11:55.000 So apparently rubbing banana peels on your face offers benefits like reducing wrinkles, brightening skin, soothing skin conditions due to their antioxidants and vitamins.

00:12:05.000 But this is just due to the AI robots telling us things.

00:12:08.000 So they could have hallucinated that.

00:12:12.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:12:14.000 The numbers don't lie.

00:13:14.000 So, Jack, do you want to chime in here?

00:13:16.000 And do you have your Saratoga water, Jack?

00:13:18.000 Well, I already finished it on my way in, so apologies to that, as I do every morning.

00:13:23.000 And then I limit myself.

00:13:25.000 I actually don't eat or drink anything until the next morning when I have my...

00:13:30.000 Further, daily Saratoga water and banana.

00:13:34.000 You know, I think what's interesting is the morning routine has been kind of a meme, especially in sort of like the TikTok community because of like the Sigma edits.

00:13:42.000 And it all goes back.

00:13:44.000 It's a 25-year-old meme that goes back to the very first and only American Psycho video movie when it came out.

00:13:53.000 The Brad Easton Ellis book that got turned into the movie with Patrick Bateman, and there's just something about that, the morning routine scene there, which, of course, Patrick Bateman is also a serial killer, which I think that a lot of the Sigma edits kind of miss out on this, even though this guy, I'm sure, is something of a wannabe serial killer here.

00:14:12.000 So I do think, though...

00:14:16.000 I don't know if you guys want to go around the horn, but I'm a morning guy.

00:14:19.000 I love getting up early in the morning.

00:14:21.000 It's something I've always enjoyed.

00:14:22.000 It's something I really love.

00:14:24.000 It's almost like a superpower if you get up sort of before everybody else.

00:14:29.000 So I actually enjoy getting up as early as possible, as crazy as it sounds, and I think it's great.

00:14:35.000 So I know I had to do all the MyPillow tweets and everything, but it turns out I actually love getting up early, and I think it's awesome.

00:14:43.000 My morning routine, though, is, and I've been this way since a kid going to Catholic school, is just I lay out everything I need for the morning so that when I wake up, it's just right there, and I'm like boom, boom, boom, boom, and I can be off and onto my day.

00:14:56.000 I get up as early as I have to.

00:14:59.000 I am a big sleep person.

00:15:02.000 I'm a believer that sleep is actually the hidden ingredient to memory and mental acuity.

00:15:06.000 If I had to choose, I would much rather stay up late than get up early.

00:15:09.000 I am much sharper later the night goes on than in the morning.

00:15:14.000 A true problem, since I've worked as a writer in various capacities, one thing that annoys me a bit is I definitely write the best and most efficiently.

00:15:24.000 Very late at night.

00:15:25.000 Oh, absolutely.

00:15:27.000 And so it actually is somewhat problematic because I'll often literally be best like after midnight.

00:15:33.000 Correct. And so what I'll get is sometimes I'll just get into a hum and I'm like, okay, I'm riding this until I can't go anymore because I'm going really well.

00:15:38.000 And it'll go till 3 a.m.

00:15:41.000 And I still have to get up at, you know, 7, 730, something like that.

00:15:44.000 And so I'll not get a lot of sleep that night.

00:15:47.000 We'll be totally like...

00:15:49.000 Blown to pieces the next day.

00:15:51.000 And then I can repeat this a few times, and then the whole thing spirals out of control.

00:15:55.000 I have to go to bed at 8 p.m. to reset everything and then reset the machine and back at it.

00:16:01.000 Yeah, and Jack, you should actually take it as a blessing that you are a morning person.

00:16:05.000 I have to get up somewhat early for the show.

00:16:08.000 I can do it, but I have to be in bed by like 9.30, 10 p.m.

00:16:13.000 I have to.

00:16:14.000 And by the way, put up this on...

00:16:15.000 Put 331 up on screen.

00:16:17.000 This picture is literally six or seven years old.

00:16:20.000 Andrew says I age well, and it's not because of banana peels.

00:16:22.000 It's because I get a lot of sleep.

00:16:24.000 I prioritize sleep.

00:16:26.000 I always have.

00:16:27.000 Also, no alcohol helps with aging.

00:16:30.000 So, Jack, if you had to choose, though, if you had your druthers, 6 a.m. wake-up call, or like 5.30, or be able to stay up to 1 a.m., which would you choose?

00:16:40.000 Where are you in a more flow state?

00:16:43.000 Honestly, this has been, you know, and I know they say this about other people as well.

00:16:48.000 I kind of do both.

00:16:50.000 I honestly kind of do both.

00:16:51.000 And I know it's not, you know, what's recommended or whatever, but I tend to be up pretty late and I get up early and I just love it.

00:17:01.000 I love everything about it.

00:17:03.000 And I don't think that works for everybody.

00:17:05.000 Obviously, it's not for everyone, but I've always enjoyed that.

00:17:09.000 I usually run about four to six hours of sleep every night and that's about it.

00:17:15.000 Unless I'm like lifting a lot or something.

00:17:18.000 I do not actually function well on four to six hours.

00:17:27.000 I'm more of like an eight to ten hour guy.

00:17:28.000 I always have been.

00:17:31.000 Everyone's wired differently.

00:17:32.000 What's really depressing is when you read the biography of transcendent historical figures, and you'll just get to the point, it's like, they had the talent to just function perfectly well on three or four hours of sleep.

00:17:42.000 Napoleon is like that.

00:17:43.000 If you read a Napoleon biography, he's awake at 2 a.m. in the morning, and it didn't matter because he could get by on three and a half hours of sleep with no lost effectiveness.

00:17:53.000 So the number of people who brag that they can get by on three hours of sleep is a lot...

00:17:58.000 Higher than the number of people who truly can.

00:18:00.000 It's very rare to actually be able to go three and a half, four hours of sleep for years on end, and that's the amount you actually need.

00:18:08.000 There's a lot of people where they do that, and the truth is if you do that for years on end, you fry your brain.

00:18:14.000 You do fry your brain, and also, I think there's actually an overrated quality of fake tough guy.

00:18:21.000 I get three hours of sleep and they don't do anything with the other 21 hours. 1.00

00:18:24.000 They're kind of doing this with this moron. 0.99

00:18:27.000 This guy's doing on this video kind of, you know, putting banana peels on his face. 1.00

00:18:31.000 It's an infamous thing.

00:18:32.000 Famously, you know, the Japanese work very long hours. 1.00

00:18:35.000 But this is a facet of Japanese work culture.

00:18:37.000 They're in the office all of the time and they can't escape.

00:18:40.000 And it's highly inefficient.

00:18:43.000 You know they have nap time in China? 0.64

00:18:49.000 China? I'm not sure about China.

00:18:50.000 I know Japan is like this. 0.67

00:18:52.000 Korea's probably like this. 0.82

00:18:54.000 There's a lot of things like you'll have an office activity and it's just you go to a bar and everyone has to get extremely performatively drunk and they're all completely miserable and don't want to be there.

00:19:03.000 But you cannot leave because it will shame family if you leave.

00:19:07.000 Well, I was going to say shame and disgrace.

00:19:10.000 When I worked in China, so they would have like a nap time and you would get to the office, you know, normal time, 8 a.m., 9 a.m.

00:19:21.000 And then there'd be a lunch hour.

00:19:23.000 And then typically, and I would see this with my Chinese colleagues, that they would, I was like one of two white guys, you know, European, whatever, Americans, who worked in the office.

00:19:35.000 And so we'd get in, and then I'd go for lunch, I'd take a walk around the park, or go to practice Mandarin, whatever.

00:19:40.000 And then I'd come back, and it was like a scene, some horror movie or something, because everyone's in the office with their heads down on their desks.

00:19:49.000 And I'm like, wait, what's going on?

00:19:52.000 Somebody drugged everyone in the office, what happened?

00:19:55.000 And apparently that's just what they do.

00:19:56.000 They just have nap time right there at the office, and they'll have a little pillow or something, and that's what they do, and that's considered normal.

00:20:03.000 I think time management is a lesser appreciated superpower of the elite.

00:20:11.000 Blake, would you agree?

00:20:14.000 Yeah, generally.

00:20:16.000 Like you say, with the whole meme, the kind of concept of people grinding super hard.

00:20:22.000 Again, if you really dig into the life habits of people who have been highly effective...

00:20:29.000 One thing actually is just consistency.

00:20:31.000 A famous one I remember reading is Immanuel Kant, one of the most important philosophers.

00:20:36.000 The categorical imperative.

00:20:37.000 Yeah, he wrote very important philosophy texts.

00:20:40.000 And every single day, he's clearly probably some type of autist where he wakes up, does the same thing every day, goes on his two-hour constitutional walk.

00:20:48.000 But the actual time he spends...

00:20:51.000 The critique of pure reason.

00:20:53.000 The actual time he spends writing is basically, I think it was like four hours a day.

00:20:56.000 And I think Stephen King is like that too.

00:20:58.000 Stephen King has written an insane number of novels.

00:21:02.000 And he writes a lot, but he's not writing 16 hours a day.

00:21:06.000 It's that he's able to write five to six hours a day.

00:21:10.000 And he does it every day.

00:21:11.000 And he hits his page count every day.

00:21:13.000 And if you're able to write five to ten...

00:21:15.000 He is prolific.

00:21:16.000 But if you can write five pages a day...

00:21:19.000 Every single day, you're able to write like two novels a year.

00:21:23.000 I mean, I think I just looked up how many books has Stephen King written.

00:21:26.000 I think it's well over, it's 65. That's published.

00:21:30.000 That's unbelievable.

00:21:31.000 That's published.

00:21:31.000 He's probably written.

00:21:33.000 Over 90 publications, actually.

00:21:35.000 I mean, that's just, that's a huge.

00:21:37.000 He's probably written.

00:21:38.000 And yet at the same time, again, if you're able to write four to five pages a day, on average, that comes out to over several thousand pages a year.

00:21:48.000 And ta-da! 1.00

00:21:49.000 You're a guy who can write several novels, short stories, essays, all of that.

00:21:53.000 Just workman-like, several pages a day.

00:21:56.000 I was a big four-hour-a-night person for a long time, but now I get more sleep.

00:22:02.000 I go to bed earlier, but I'm a late-night person, too.

00:22:05.000 Yeah, I'm wired.

00:22:06.000 But the show makes me have to get up earlier, and then it's fine.

00:22:08.000 I mean, you kind of recalibrate.

00:22:10.000 So is your master plan to, like...

00:22:13.000 Eventually, like, have a late-night show.

00:22:15.000 I joked around with Andrew that, I mean, the thing is when you have kids, it actually is really, really hard.

00:22:20.000 It's actually better to have a morning show.

00:22:22.000 It's, like, way better.

00:22:23.000 The dream would be, like, 3 to 6 Arizona time or 6 to 9 Eastern, like, right in prime time.

00:22:30.000 It would be, I mean, I actually think better as the night goes on.

00:22:35.000 I'm more clear.

00:22:36.000 So the mornings, I have to kind of dig it out.

00:22:39.000 Plus it's the full day of news, too, so you get everything.

00:22:41.000 Totally. Exactly.

00:22:42.000 I mean, when I worked with Tucker, the show was on, for a while it was 9 to 10. That's rough.

00:22:49.000 That was very late, and it shapes your whole day as a result.

00:22:54.000 Did you have to get back in the office at 9 a.m. the next morning?

00:22:56.000 No, no, no.

00:22:57.000 We would come in in the afternoon.

00:22:58.000 Yeah, I would figure.

00:22:59.000 Yeah, generally.

00:23:01.000 But it did make it very funny because I definitely had the mental attitude of like, you do work and then you do your stuff after work when work is over.

00:23:09.000 So I would get up absurdly late, go do the show, get back, and then stay up till like 2.30am every single day.

00:23:17.000 It screws up your entire system.

00:23:20.000 And then if you have doctor's appointments or stuff, it just like, forget it.

00:23:23.000 It just becomes a mess.

00:23:26.000 Going back to the...

00:23:29.000 No daylight savings time issue.

00:23:31.000 It is problematic for late night people like us on the West Coast.

00:23:36.000 So that's the reason why I was always up early or like four hours because I would stay up super late.

00:23:41.000 I would do all my turning point presentations, everything else, trainings, everything else.

00:23:46.000 And then you'd have to wake up.

00:23:47.000 You basically have to wake up by like 5.30.

00:23:50.000 Yeah, like 6 or 7 because everybody's already doing stuff on the East Coast.

00:23:54.000 A really fun one was when I was at the Daily Caller, I would sometimes stay up.

00:23:58.000 And if you stay up late enough, you get the late night news that is actually tomorrow morning's news.

00:24:03.000 So you just write that up and you're ahead of the curve on all of that.

00:24:06.000 Oh, I was always in the middle of the next morning news.

00:24:10.000 I've always been that.

00:24:12.000 Yeah, but it's more intense when you're doing this on the East Coast itself.

00:24:15.000 I was not in Arizona for that.

00:24:17.000 Yeah, that's true.

00:24:19.000 Alright, anything else on morning routines?

00:24:21.000 We should have people send us morning routines.

00:24:22.000 If we get any funny ones, we could read it on...

00:24:25.000 So question is breakfast or no breakfast debate, though.

00:24:28.000 I'm a no breakfast person.

00:24:29.000 I'm a no breakfast person.

00:24:31.000 I just think the evidence has come in.

00:24:32.000 People are fat, eat less.

00:24:34.000 Best way to cut it out is to not eat breakfast.

00:24:36.000 Correct. If you can extend your fasting window, you're in a great spot.

00:24:40.000 Eat the most in the middle of the day.

00:24:42.000 That's right.

00:24:42.000 And then taper down on both ends.

00:24:44.000 And you actually sleep better because you're not digesting food.

00:24:47.000 I just think it's such a waste of time.

00:24:48.000 I wake up as late as I possibly can.

00:24:52.000 To survive?

00:24:53.000 Like, it seems just like such a waste of time to make breakfast.

00:24:55.000 You already have to make breakfast for kids when you have kids.

00:24:57.000 That's right.

00:24:58.000 And it's like, that's a lot.

00:25:01.000 Charlie Kirk here.

00:25:02.000 When faced with a threat, you might think of lethal force, but consider a less lethal option like Burna to avoid legal issues tied to firearms.

00:25:10.000 As a strong advocate for the right to bear arms, I value diverse defensive options, and Burna offers an effective alternative.

00:25:17.000 Proudly assembled in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Burna's less lethal pistol launchers loaded with tear gas and kinetic ammunition can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes, allowing you to safely escape or call for help while reducing...

00:25:31.000 the risk of severe injury.

00:25:32.000 Berna is about preventing tragedy and preserving life without the consequences of using lethal It's legal in all 50 states, requires no background checks, and over 500,000 units are in the hands of responsible citizens and law enforcement.

00:25:46.000 Burna can be shipped directly to your door.

00:25:49.000 I've personally tested the Burna pistol and can vouch for its effectiveness and its ease of use.

00:26:04.000 What is our...

00:26:04.000 The next is the Pyramids of Giza.

00:26:06.000 Is that right?

00:26:07.000 Yeah, we got into this.

00:26:08.000 So, I mean, you guys can make the pitch to me what you think is going on here because I think my take is not very surprising.

00:26:15.000 This has been setting the internet ablaze.

00:26:18.000 Apparently there's an entire city underneath the pyramids.

00:26:21.000 Is that right?

00:26:22.000 It's not right.

00:26:23.000 It's not a city.

00:26:25.000 The experts are speculating that it's a power grid.

00:26:31.000 Oh, a power grid.

00:26:32.000 Okay. It is.

00:26:33.000 It is?

00:26:34.000 Okay. It's the only thing that makes sense.

00:26:36.000 The only thing that makes sense.

00:26:38.000 It's the only thing that makes sense.

00:26:39.000 It's the only explanation.

00:26:40.000 I've watched at least six Instagram videos of this, Blake.

00:26:44.000 So people have said for a long time that the pyramids are some kind of power generator.

00:26:46.000 Yeah. There's a guy who wrote a book about this.

00:26:50.000 I'm sure they've written a lot of books about it.

00:26:53.000 We love Graham Hancock.

00:26:55.000 Yeah. I'm very pro-Graham Hancock.

00:26:57.000 So contextually, it's that this news story is, I think they're Italian.

00:27:01.000 It's like academics in Italy, I believe.

00:27:03.000 And they claim, I really cannot put enough quotation marks around the word claim, that They've found, using ground-penetrating radar, that there is some sort of tunnel or shaft extending beneath the pyramids thousands of feet.

00:27:22.000 They believe a mile or more, I think.

00:27:25.000 It's like 150 stories or something.

00:27:27.000 And they're atop these pillars.

00:27:29.000 And they just go down.

00:27:30.000 And then they wildly speculate that they may lead to a lost ancient city.

00:27:35.000 So that's what Shirley's talking about.

00:27:37.000 There might be a city underneath the power grid.

00:27:39.000 Obviously. I am curious.

00:27:42.000 So, Blake, let's broaden this.

00:27:43.000 What was their morning routine?

00:27:44.000 Yeah, what was the Egyptians' morning routine?

00:27:46.000 So, the construction of the pyramids, do you think there was any alien phenomenology behind the construction of any of these ancient structures?

00:28:01.000 you think there's anything to the idea of how the pyramids are configured with the suns?

00:28:08.000 No? There might be some mile astronomy stuff.

00:28:12.000 I'll never forget.

00:28:13.000 I will never forget watching the History Channel once when it was converting to becoming the Aliens Channel.

00:28:21.000 Correct. And they had a program on the pyramids.

00:28:25.000 And in passing, as evidence of the pyramids' mystical nature, they ponderously said...

00:28:31.000 The pyramids of Giza lie at the exact intersection point where the world's longest lines of longitude and latitude intersect.

00:28:41.000 One, every single line of longitude is the exact same length because they all go from the North Pole to the South Pole.

00:28:47.000 Two, the longest line of latitude is the equator.

00:28:50.000 The pyramids are not on the equator. 0.88

00:28:51.000 And they just threw this in like someone had to edit together this documentary which was then aired on cable television just saying This extremely dumb thing.

00:29:03.000 And the truth is, people want to believe weird stuff.

00:29:07.000 There's always people looking to tell you weird stuff.

00:29:11.000 It's very funny if you read old sci-fi stuff because there are alternative versions of this.

00:29:17.000 I was just reading an essay in an online magazine in the 40s.

00:29:22.000 The big fad was that, like, Lost Lemuria, it was like Atlantis and Lemuria, and the people from there would, like, abduct humans and take them to their underground lair.

00:29:32.000 And once they published this, which was just some rant by, like, a mentally ill guy who had lived in an asylum, they started getting all these letters from people saying, like, yeah, I have memories of getting abducted by the ancient Lemurians, too.

00:29:44.000 This is crazy.

00:29:45.000 And there was Amazing Tales, was this big sci-fi magazine.

00:29:49.000 And it just got taken over by the hunt for the Lemurians for about five years.

00:29:54.000 And it made their sails go through the roof, which is why they did it.

00:29:56.000 And it's the same thing with Egypt. 0.58

00:29:58.000 People like pyramids.

00:30:00.000 They're big.

00:30:01.000 They're impressive.

00:30:02.000 They're kind of strange.

00:30:05.000 It's pretty baffling to have this extremely huge, extremely old structure.

00:30:08.000 So people have always been coming up with strange theories about them.

00:30:11.000 But to say the least, no.

00:30:14.000 There is not a gigantic underground city beneath the pyramids.

00:30:17.000 I'm willing to bet money.

00:30:20.000 Five years from now, we will not have found a vast underground city beneath the pyramids.

00:30:24.000 You might find an underground chamber or something.

00:30:26.000 They have found stuff buried alongside the pyramids.

00:30:29.000 I think my favorite that people don't know about is they built a giant boat for the pharaoh to use in the afterlife, and they dug it up and they reassembled the whole boat, and it's like a big old boat.

00:30:40.000 So you think all the alignment is either just happy accident...

00:30:44.000 Because they have, like, Orion's belt alignment, the solar equinox alignment.

00:30:48.000 Yeah, all that's usually just woo-woo.

00:30:51.000 But it's real.

00:30:53.000 So is it just they just happen to put the pyramids there?

00:30:56.000 Well, they have astronomy in ancient times, so they could conceivably be like, oh, we'll have the point of this pyramid line up with this star.

00:31:03.000 And I don't know them off the top of my head.

00:31:05.000 But, no, there's nothing that would indicate they had, you know, ancient telescopes or aliens telling them to point the pyramids.

00:31:12.000 I'm not saying there is.

00:31:14.000 Something phenomenal.

00:31:15.000 After 5,000 years, the stars actually move.

00:31:19.000 They shift where they are over 5,000 years.

00:31:22.000 There's something, and I'm drawing from memory here, but if you add up the coordinates of the pyramids, it has some sort of an alignment with the actual circumference of the Earth.

00:31:37.000 That is true.

00:31:39.000 You've heard about this one?

00:31:40.000 This one is a real thing.

00:31:41.000 I have heard about this one.

00:31:41.000 I'm drawing from memory.

00:31:43.000 I believe it's that the latitude...

00:31:44.000 I'm looking at this.

00:31:46.000 The latitude of the Great Pyramid is extremely close to the speed of light.

00:31:51.000 Yes. But the problem there is, while that is a very wacky coincidence...

00:31:56.000 Do you really think that...

00:31:57.000 I'm asking, is that just a coincidence?

00:31:59.000 Did they have lines of latitude with coordinates in ancient Egypt?

00:32:03.000 No, that's the point.

00:32:04.000 That's the whole point.

00:32:05.000 So we're alleging time travel?

00:32:06.000 We're not alleging.

00:32:07.000 No, we're asking.

00:32:08.000 We're in pursuit of to explain.

00:32:11.000 There's a whole alien aspect of this that people always throw in with that.

00:32:15.000 I think that's what the insinuation is by a lot of the people.

00:32:18.000 Yeah, aliens, I guess.

00:32:20.000 What do you have to say about, for example, some of the Mayan temples and Aztec temples that they didn't have the technology to even cut the rock the way that it was?

00:32:29.000 I mean, we're talking about perfect cuts of A hundred foot stone.

00:32:34.000 How would that even be done?

00:32:36.000 Apparently they did have the technology.

00:32:37.000 Tell me how.

00:32:38.000 I don't know how to quarry rock, but quarrying rock is a pretty ancient technology.

00:32:43.000 This is why Blake's position is so problematic.

00:32:48.000 It's because if there's a thousand feet of tubes underneath the pyramid, he can't actually just...

00:32:55.000 Write it off.

00:32:55.000 I will say, if there's a 2,000-foot shaft with pillars and a power grid underneath the pyramids, I will be extremely excited because it will mean our knowledge of the world is totally thrown out and we have to reassess everything.

00:33:13.000 But I think that's the appeal of it for a lot of people.

00:33:16.000 And I'll just say, a lot of people who fixate on this have fixated on every other thing that ever came up and went absolutely nowhere.

00:33:24.000 So if anyone wants to bet even odds that we won't have found...

00:33:28.000 I'm not betting.

00:33:29.000 In ancient civilizations, some of these structures defy some of our logic of what we knew existed at the time.

00:33:37.000 Yeah, for sure, for sure.

00:33:38.000 So then we have to ask, how did they build them?

00:33:40.000 For sure.

00:33:40.000 Some of them are very interesting.

00:33:43.000 Gobleki Tepe, I think is the name of it, is this ancient structure in, I think, modern-day Turkey.

00:33:51.000 And it's like 10,000 years old.

00:33:53.000 And so it's way older than we thought.

00:33:55.000 Like, this is well into Neolithic period.

00:33:57.000 And so you're thinking, okay, was this an actual city?

00:34:01.000 Was this a site that hunter-gatherers would use?

00:34:04.000 Is agriculture a bit older than we thought?

00:34:06.000 Because the thinking is this basically predates agriculture, which our normal theory is you start getting cities when you have organized agriculture.

00:34:14.000 That's pretty interesting.

00:34:15.000 But notably, it's like, okay, we have this...

00:34:19.000 Kind of wacky thing, like a small structure.

00:34:22.000 It's not on par with a giant super city.

00:34:25.000 I think the Great Pyramids are pretty interesting as is without needing a giant city underneath.

00:34:30.000 I'm not even saying that.

00:34:31.000 The city thing I'm agnostic on.

00:34:34.000 How did they cut the stone to make the pyramid?

00:34:37.000 I don't know off the top of my head.

00:34:39.000 One crazy thing is...

00:34:40.000 Egyptologists disagree on that.

00:34:41.000 From how far away the stone was that they cut it.

00:34:43.000 The quarries were...

00:34:45.000 Hundreds of miles away.

00:34:46.000 Yeah, there's a lot of debate over how they were able to drag it.

00:34:48.000 I know one of the crazier theories, I don't know that many people believe this, but I think it is in theory possible.

00:34:54.000 One guy thinks that they can actually basically cast rock.

00:34:57.000 They could basically do a limestone cast for a lot of the stones that they used.

00:35:03.000 And so you could basically build it in place.

00:35:05.000 And I think he did technically prove it was possible.

00:35:08.000 And they mostly say that is unlikely because we have no evidence that the Egyptians knew how to do this or ever thought it was possible.

00:35:15.000 But that would be a very funny way that they could have done it.

00:35:17.000 But I think the most common thesis is, yeah, in fact, in ancient Egypt, you basically had a slave state where everyone was owned by the pharaoh and you did nothing but grow food, which was easy because the Nile floods every single year.

00:35:31.000 And so for a third of the year, you plant.

00:35:35.000 For a third of the year, you harvest.

00:35:37.000 And for a third of the year, you go to church.

00:35:38.000 And the way you go to church is you drag giant rocks to build them in a giant pile to honor the god king.

00:35:43.000 Do you think...

00:35:44.000 So, I'm going to ask you another one.

00:35:46.000 Sure. Easter Island.

00:35:48.000 What about it?

00:35:49.000 The heads?

00:35:49.000 Who built them and how did they get there?

00:35:51.000 I believe the natives of Easter Island did it and they got so wacky about it they deforested their island and caused a collapse of their civilization. 1.00

00:35:59.000 Okay. So, just to be clear, these podunk backward island people built like 50 foot beautifully sculpted with what technology? 1.00

00:36:11.000 I mean, they don't look that pretty...

00:36:13.000 They're huge, but then they...

00:36:15.000 Yeah, they did deforest their island until they collapsed their civilization.

00:36:19.000 Do not impugn...

00:36:19.000 That's what they want you to believe.

00:36:20.000 Do not impugn the complexity of the Polynesians, though, because they're crazy impressive when you read about what they could do.

00:36:28.000 They're not quite Polynesia.

00:36:29.000 It's in South America.

00:36:31.000 No, Polynesian is...

00:36:32.000 So you have Melanesians, you have Micronesians, and then you have Polynesians.

00:36:36.000 And Polynesians are... 1.00

00:36:38.000 Tonga, Hawaii, Easter Island.

00:36:40.000 Easter Island is like the far edge of where the island is.

00:36:42.000 Easter Island is part of Chile.

00:36:43.000 It is, but it's Polynesians who settled it.

00:36:46.000 Well, that's the hypothesis, the southern route hypothesis.

00:36:50.000 Yeah, there are alternative theories that South America settled the Pacific Islands.

00:36:55.000 Had people who settled before North America.

00:36:59.000 Do you think...

00:37:00.000 The Easter Island one is really bizarre.

00:37:02.000 If you read about Polynesians, what's really crazy, for example, think about this.

00:37:07.000 If you only live on islands like this and you've never seen a large amount of land, they had no concept of north and south, for example.

00:37:15.000 North, south, east, west.

00:37:16.000 Because why would they?

00:37:17.000 Their concept of directions was oceanward or inward, like towards the island.

00:37:22.000 That was their orientation for directions.

00:37:25.000 Think about how crazy that would make your headspace for locations.

00:37:31.000 There is a Christian potential interpretation.

00:37:35.000 I have a great book I want you to read, which is called When Giants Roam the Earth.

00:37:38.000 Oh boy.

00:37:39.000 It's a phenomenal book, which shows all how giants used to be super populated.

00:37:44.000 You'll laugh.

00:37:45.000 And there's tons of photos and archaeological evidence.

00:37:48.000 And it would be the Nephilim. 0.69

00:37:50.000 So the Nephilim built Easter Island? 0.93

00:37:52.000 I'm not saying they did, but there is a strange, you have to admit, a pattern of different civilizations that didn't know each other, of statues that look eerily similar, of structures that are at least a little bit above our comprehension.

00:38:05.000 I mean, Machu Picchu, the Aztec, the Teotihuacan or whatever they call it.

00:38:10.000 It's not as if it's impossible, but it's definitely verging on, okay, these people would barely figure out how to grow corn.

00:38:20.000 Corn is a demon, though.

00:38:22.000 I know.

00:38:22.000 It gave them eldritch powers.

00:38:24.000 But there is a symmetry to...

00:38:32.000 They all go like poof.

00:38:33.000 They build these insane things and they all pop.

00:38:36.000 You want me to blow your mind?

00:38:37.000 What if that's our civilization?

00:38:39.000 We built some insane things, Charlie.

00:38:41.000 I could make an argument though that making the pyramids without electricity is like way more impressive than building the Empire State Building.

00:38:52.000 It might be.

00:38:53.000 It actually is.

00:38:54.000 You know what I'm saying?

00:38:55.000 It is whatever it is.

00:38:57.000 Any theory of like how they built the pyramids is going to be insanely impressive because if you just take the number of stones like they've calculated that are in the Great Pyramid, they have to slot one of those rocks, every one of which is like 100 tons or whatever, in place basically every 11 minutes nonstop for like 20 years to get it finished.

00:39:20.000 So the one that you mentioned really quick is the Goeki Tepe, right?

00:39:24.000 I was just diving into some of this.

00:39:26.000 The statues there are eerily similar to that on Easter Island.

00:39:30.000 You can roll your eyes all you want.

00:39:32.000 At that point...

00:39:34.000 Okay, fine.

00:39:34.000 People are getting...

00:39:36.000 They want to find connections.

00:39:37.000 They'll be like, how did the Mayans and the Egyptians both build pyramids?

00:39:42.000 Well, I kind of think a pyramid is a kind of natural shape to build something in.

00:39:48.000 It goes towards a point that goes up to the sky.

00:39:51.000 There is an architectural and structural Breakthrough.

00:39:57.000 That all of these civilizations happen to simultaneously figure out.

00:40:01.000 But not simultaneously.

00:40:03.000 Within a couple thousand year window.

00:40:05.000 And then all of a sudden, poof, no one builds this stuff anymore.

00:40:08.000 And they're everywhere.

00:40:08.000 They're all over the world.

00:40:09.000 We have one in Vegas.

00:40:10.000 They're all over the world.

00:40:11.000 We have one in Memphis.

00:40:12.000 That's a reproduction.

00:40:14.000 We had to basically restart.

00:40:17.000 That's a reproduction.

00:40:18.000 And it didn't have a hundred stories of energy producing.

00:40:25.000 Technology underneath it.

00:40:26.000 That's true.

00:40:29.000 If you have private student loan debt, you should listen carefully.

00:40:33.000 Private student loan debt in the United States totals about $300 billion.

00:40:37.000 About $45 billion that is labeled as distressed.

00:40:39.000 Why Refi refinances distressed or defaulted private student loan debt that others will not touch and they lean in and help you.

00:40:46.000 Do you have a co-borrower?

00:40:48.000 Why Refi can get them released from the loan.

00:40:50.000 You can give mom or dad a break.

00:41:30.000 Great supporters of this program.

00:41:34.000 So, Jack, where are you at on the Nephilim, Jack?

00:41:37.000 I think it's very interesting.

00:41:39.000 I did a whole thing when we went to Israel in 2022.

00:41:43.000 We were driving around the Holy Land.

00:41:45.000 We did a whole special podcast on all of this and how there's various theories about the Nephilim and pre-flood cultures.

00:41:53.000 One of the ones that I really like is that various kings and tribes throughout the Old Testament were actually like remnants of the Nephilim and that God actually sent the flood to wipe out the main portion of the Nephilim.

00:42:11.000 And that's what made him so gigantic so that obviously they had a demonic aspect to them and so that...

00:42:28.000 That when David slays Goliath, he's actually fighting this demonic influence that was not supposed to be in the world to begin with.

00:42:35.000 I find it fascinating.

00:42:36.000 I love that stuff.

00:42:38.000 So, Blake, you just ignore me.

00:42:40.000 You just think it all as we're told.

00:42:42.000 You know, I think the more we study it, the more shocking it would be if we were to discover something way out of line.

00:42:51.000 What I like to say, I've been to Egypt.

00:42:53.000 One thing I think a lot of people don't realize is...

00:42:56.000 For the pyramids, for example, they can seem really weird if you think there's like three pyramids and then nothing else like that was ever built anywhere else before.

00:43:04.000 But if you go there, there's actually, first of all, we have like the proto-pyramids that they started building before the Great Ones.

00:43:11.000 So if you go to Saqqara, which is another necropolis they have, they have the steppe pyramid.

00:43:17.000 It's older, so it's kind of layers.

00:43:19.000 It's more like a layer-type look to it.

00:43:22.000 And what's also funny is they apparently were originally building these out of bricks.

00:43:26.000 And so they take the stone and they carve it into brick shapes to keep the shape looking right.

00:43:31.000 And they build that.

00:43:32.000 And then they build other proto-pyramids.

00:43:35.000 And it all builds up to, okay, now let's actually build this huge Mondo Pyramid.

00:43:39.000 And if you go around Egypt, you can also find the pyramids that they screwed up.

00:43:43.000 So there's one called the Bent Pyramid where they were building it and then apparently realized this isn't going to look right.

00:43:49.000 So they just kiboshed it and it ends up looking like this weird mutant pyramid.

00:43:55.000 And there's also some where they just totally screwed it up and the pyramid collapsed or got all goofed up.

00:44:01.000 And once you find these things, it's much more understandable to think of this fits into a civilization that gradually developed this and had these false starts.

00:44:11.000 But 4,000 years pass and people think...

00:44:15.000 Oh, there's just this crazy huge building in the middle of the desert that came out of nowhere.

00:44:18.000 And very seriously, I think a lot of modern conspiracy theories develop this way, too, where people forget all of the context that happens around things that help explain it, and so things seem less explicable to them.

00:44:35.000 So, you know, you're going to get a lot more conspiracy theories over time about the moon landing because people are going to forget...

00:44:42.000 Oh wait, these are all the other space missions we did that built up to the moon landing.

00:44:46.000 Here's all this other stuff that's proof it happens.

00:44:49.000 And they just think, oh wow, we just went and landed on the moon?

00:44:52.000 That doesn't make a lot of sense.

00:44:53.000 And I think that genuinely is where a lot of oddball takes, very conspiratorial takes come from, is lack of wider context around things that allows you to misinterpret the stuff you do know.

00:45:08.000 Let's go to Mormon names in the time we have remaining. 0.97

00:45:10.000 Alright, okay.

00:45:11.000 This is me.

00:45:12.000 It's time for me to grill you.

00:45:14.000 So, I'll admit, Mormon names was me naming this boldly.

00:45:17.000 So, do we have the chart here?

00:45:18.000 Okay. So, they made a list last year, and it was the top red state names.

00:45:27.000 Can you guys tell me what the number is here?

00:45:28.000 I just want to...

00:45:29.000 I don't have it right in front of me.

00:45:31.000 The original red state one that you sent over, yeah.

00:45:34.000 Okay, so is it 305 is the chart here?

00:45:36.000 Okay, so I can't read it.

00:45:38.000 Someone posted it in the chat so I can read the names here.

00:45:43.000 So what it is is they look at the, we get the names in each, you know, the Social Security Administration tracks baby names.

00:45:51.000 Right. And one of the things that we can look at is...

00:45:53.000 This is all Tyler, by the way.

00:45:54.000 This is a master Tyler.

00:45:55.000 Exactly. And so what we can look at is how many states babies have names in different states.

00:46:02.000 What's the proportion?

00:46:03.000 Of kids that are getting that name in red states versus blue states.

00:46:07.000 And only in red states.

00:46:09.000 And there are some names that are the reddest boy names and the reddest girl names.

00:46:15.000 So for example, we have the reddest boy name.

00:46:18.000 So the reddest boy name that has at least a decent number of people getting it.

00:46:24.000 72% in red states is Cohen with a K. And then in order we have Baylor, Stetson, Kyson, Tripp, Sutton, Briggs, Cohen again.

00:46:38.000 Stetson? I like that name.

00:46:40.000 Gunner and Baker.

00:46:42.000 Gunner is such a Mormon name. 0.86

00:46:42.000 And then the girl one. 0.86

00:46:43.000 This is why I called it Mormon names. 0.68

00:46:45.000 This is super Mormon.

00:46:46.000 So most red state girls names are Hattie, Oakland, Oakley, Gracelyn, Renly, Blakely, Collins, Oakley, again, with a different spelling.

00:47:00.000 Sailor. And Oakley, again! 0.98

00:47:02.000 We have four different versions of Oakley or Oakland.

00:47:05.000 Oakley is, like, the number one name in Utah by a lot right now.

00:47:10.000 If you look it up, I sent one into the chat.

00:47:12.000 I think it was, like, had it in there.

00:47:14.000 You can always tell the Mormons do a couple of things really well.

00:47:18.000 Three things.

00:47:20.000 One is they do a lot of...

00:47:21.000 Women do a lot of hair. 1.00

00:47:22.000 There's a lot of...

00:47:23.000 If you live in Arizona, you know that.

00:47:26.000 Two, they have really good soda shops.

00:47:30.000 And they do like those dirty sodas, right?

00:47:32.000 Yeah, the dirty sodas.

00:47:33.000 That's how they put cream in it, right?

00:47:35.000 And then three is they'll come up with crazy names.

00:47:38.000 And you can almost point out a Mormon based off of their name.

00:47:43.000 Anywhere. If there's a crazy name, just guessing that it's a Mormon. 0.94

00:47:48.000 And it's just like this.

00:47:49.000 It's like...

00:47:51.000 Has like an element of normalcy.

00:47:53.000 What they'll do is they'll take a lot.

00:47:55.000 Yeah, we've got that one there.

00:47:56.000 It's like a keeping up with the Joneses type mentality.

00:47:59.000 Where does this come from?

00:48:00.000 Because Mormons all go to church together in the same neighborhood.

00:48:04.000 You have to live.

00:48:05.000 You're forced.

00:48:06.000 So Mormons are like subdivided and forced together. 0.96

00:48:11.000 And it's like there's like a massive like keeping up with each other.

00:48:14.000 And one of the elements of Mormon culture is like outdoing everybody with a new name. 0.96

00:48:19.000 And if you're a boy, it pretty much ends with ton, son, or un.

00:48:24.000 Almost always.

00:48:25.000 For girls, it's almost always like the lease. 0.92

00:48:28.000 Yeah, that's what's interesting to me is the way Mormon names tend to work is it's like a mix and match.

00:48:34.000 Yes, they'll take a half.

00:48:35.000 There'll be like 10 start.

00:48:37.000 Like, they'll take a normal name and they'll split it in half.

00:48:40.000 That's right.

00:48:40.000 And then randomize it with another one.

00:48:42.000 You get it.

00:48:42.000 So you get it.

00:48:43.000 You can move right in.

00:48:44.000 Someone had a chart.

00:48:45.000 Or they'll take, like, a super, like, you know how, like, again, a lot of evangelicals will use, like, nothing but biblical names?

00:48:53.000 Mormons will also pick Mormon, you know, Book of Mormon names.

00:48:57.000 And so, like, if you know Book of Mormon names, you can be like, oh, that's a person like Ammon.

00:49:03.000 Is on there.

00:49:03.000 I can't remember.

00:49:04.000 Take a look at this.

00:49:05.000 That's hilarious.

00:49:06.000 This chart I just saved where it's like the mix and match.

00:49:08.000 A blogger came up with this a few years ago.

00:49:11.000 But we have the A line.

00:49:13.000 So this is what you could start with.

00:49:14.000 It's at the bottom of the chat here.

00:49:17.000 But we have Mei, Kai, Tay, Bryn, Jay, Pin, and Cam.

00:49:21.000 That's right.

00:49:21.000 You can start with that.

00:49:22.000 And then we have Lee, C, Lin, Ler, Din, Sun, and Bree.

00:49:26.000 So you could be Brinson.

00:49:30.000 Kinlin. Jay Lee.

00:49:31.000 Yeah, May Lee. 1.00

00:49:32.000 Macy. You've got a million different ones here.

00:49:35.000 But then they can get really creative.

00:49:36.000 I found this old blog where they were tracking some fun, it was like their best of names from Utah.

00:49:44.000 They say most Mormon name is Dallin, by the way.

00:49:46.000 Oh yeah, Dallin.

00:49:47.000 We can confirm that one.

00:49:48.000 Dallin is like a big, big, big, we know a few Dallins.

00:49:52.000 That's like a historic one, though, right?

00:49:54.000 Are there 1800s down ones?

00:49:56.000 Yeah. Oh, yeah.

00:49:57.000 That goes way back.

00:49:58.000 All right.

00:49:59.000 But then the more recent ones, we have stuff like...

00:50:02.000 Well, I have top 10 here from Utah right now, too.

00:50:04.000 Oh. The boys' names.

00:50:06.000 And it cracks me up because you have all these Mormon names, like Hiram, Brigham. 0.89

00:50:12.000 Do they spell it that way?

00:50:13.000 Usually don't.

00:50:14.000 Hiram usually isn't spelled that way.

00:50:16.000 That's like Hiram's name.

00:50:17.000 That's the Mormon way to say it.

00:50:18.000 So that's where it comes from.

00:50:20.000 But then they have on their Stockton, because they name, like, after John Stockton.

00:50:24.000 Yeah, like, we have to name our kids.

00:50:25.000 So there's John Stockton.

00:50:26.000 We name our kids after a slum in California.

00:50:28.000 Number nine on the list is Glade.

00:50:30.000 Glade? That's like a geographical feature.

00:50:32.000 Well, it's like a plug-in.

00:50:35.000 It's an air freshener.

00:50:36.000 I feel bad for those kids.

00:50:39.000 Hey, everybody.

00:50:40.000 Charlie Kirk here.

00:50:41.000 Brand new year.

00:50:42.000 Brand new opportunities to change the world for the better.

00:50:44.000 It's easier than you might think.

00:50:45.000 You can save babies by providing ultrasounds with Preborn.

00:50:49.000 Together with the Sanctity of Human Life Month, we're going to save 35,000 babies to show the world that not only do we believe life is precious, but we're going to do something about it.

00:50:58.000 Your gift of pre-born will give a girl the truth of what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.

00:51:04.000 What better way to start this new year than to join us to save babies?

00:51:08.000 And $28 a month will save a baby a month all year long.

00:51:11.000 A $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.

00:51:17.000 And will also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:51:21.000 I am a donor to this organization, and you should be too.

00:51:24.000 Start this new year by being a hero for life.

00:51:27.000 Call 833-850-2229 or click on the preborn banner at charliekirk.com.

00:51:32.000 That is charliekirk.com and click on the preborn banner.

00:51:36.000 I'm a donor.

00:51:36.000 You should be too.

00:51:37.000 Charliekirk.com, pre-born band.

00:51:41.000 Jack, what is going on with Snow Woke?

00:51:45.000 Yeah, so Snow Woke, this is a story, you know, I've been covering it on Human Events Daily, and it's just broken out, just totally mainstream at this point, where Snow White, everyone knows the original story, obviously the original movie from the 1930s, but even the much earlier Brothers Grimm, you know, fairy tale from the 1800s, 200 years old.

00:52:06.000 Well, a couple of years ago...

00:52:08.000 This film was made at the height of wokeness.

00:52:11.000 And here's what's actually kind of funny about the new Snow White.

00:52:14.000 So we all remember the traditional Snow White, the beautiful, you know, the skin as white as snow. 0.97

00:52:19.000 It's right there.

00:52:20.000 Well, at the height of wokeness...

00:52:23.000 Disney's Snow Woke came out, and as it turns out, this was delayed due to COVID and due to the writer's strikes and various other strikes that were going on in Hollywood.

00:52:33.000 So this film that was made at the peak woke era is actually now coming out at the Trump era.

00:52:40.000 And everybody is just hating on it.

00:52:43.000 And it's completely an act of cultural vandalism.

00:52:47.000 In fact, it's cultural terrorism.

00:52:49.000 This actress is just horrific. 1.00

00:52:52.000 She is so just narcissistic. 1.00

00:52:57.000 In fact, the son of the producer has actually taken to Instagram and is just blasting her. 0.96

00:53:03.000 Not only has she made horrific comments.

00:53:06.000 About all sorts of people, but she's deliberately targeted Trump supporters, targeted President Trump, saying terrible things about him and his family. 0.88

00:53:14.000 And on the day of the election, when President Trump won, she said, I'm not going to curse, but she said, F Trump supporters, F Donald Trump, F Trump supporters, and I hope they know no peace.

00:53:27.000 And this is who Disney chose to be, the beloved Snow White traditional character.

00:53:32.000 Plus, in addition, and Charlie, I'm sure you'll appreciate this, they completely changed the story where now Snow White is, as you can see, she's a quote-unquote person of color who's leading an uprising against the white.

00:53:48.000 Fascist queen played by Gal Gadot. 0.52

00:53:53.000 There's also this sort of meta-narrative going around the whole thing because Gal Gadot served in the IDF and has obviously been very pro-Israel, not extremely vocally.

00:54:04.000 She's more talked about hostages and victims and things like that of October 7th.

00:54:07.000 But then the actress here, Rachel Zegler, has been very vocally pro-Palestine.

00:54:13.000 And so this has all been going on.

00:54:15.000 Variety had a huge article.

00:54:19.000 Talking about all the things that Disney tried to do.

00:54:22.000 They even sent a social media manager to Rachel Zegler to try to approve her posts before they came out.

00:54:28.000 They sent multiple producers to try to talk to her and she just completely would not listen, completely disregarded everything they said.

00:54:37.000 And so now in the face of all of this, something like a $270 million budget just for production, another hundred plus or so on top of that in marketing, this film only did $43 million in its opening.

00:54:53.000 It's one of the weakest openings of any Disney live action show is one of the worst.

00:54:58.000 It's a 7% approval.

00:55:04.000 Look, the worm has just turned.

00:55:06.000 The worm has just absolutely turned.

00:55:08.000 In the country, the mood of the country has changed.

00:55:10.000 We are not doing this stuff anymore.

00:55:12.000 And people are sick of it.

00:55:13.000 People are absolutely sick of the cultural degradation that we're doing to our own class.

00:55:18.000 I mean, how do you screw up Snow White?

00:55:20.000 It's like the most basic story.

00:55:22.000 Just take the story and put it in live action if that's all you're going to do.

00:55:27.000 It's so simple.

00:55:28.000 But of course, when the cultural Marxists were running Disney, and many of them still are, they decided.

00:55:34.000 So personally, one of the things that I've been leading online is making sure that people understand that obviously this has been a huge travesty, but I want this to be a warning to everybody.

00:55:45.000 Why? Because what is Netflix making right now?

00:55:48.000 Narnia. Yes, Netflix Narnia is coming up next.

00:55:52.000 And who did they hand it over to?

00:55:54.000 Greta Gerwig, who made the hyper-feminist anti-male film Barbie and was also at one point a co-writer on the new Snow White.

00:56:05.000 And it's so sad, too, culturally, because this is one of Walt Disney's most beloved characters that he had obsessed over during his lifetime was Snow White.

00:56:19.000 They really have dishonored themselves.

00:56:23.000 It's self-deprecating, self-demolition type work that we've seen from Disney, obviously, that's not new.

00:56:31.000 But it's the amount of drama that you can read online about all of this.

00:56:36.000 Think about, again, there's really good people, and this is why you're seeing more union guys, I think, turn more conservative, is this type of narcissism that exists.

00:56:49.000 It's literally going to cost probably dozens of jobs, if not hundreds of jobs, that were committed to this and future projects that are now gone, basically vanquished because of the narcissism that came out of Rachel Ziegler.

00:57:03.000 It's just so avoidable.

00:57:05.000 I mean, I don't want to be cruel or mean, but if you look at her, it's like, that's not Snow White.

00:57:09.000 I mean, come on.

00:57:10.000 I mean, what are we doing here, right?

00:57:13.000 It's so forced, and it's just such the arrogance of Disney.

00:57:18.000 There should be a shareholder lawsuit over this.

00:57:21.000 This is like a violation of fiduciary duty.

00:57:23.000 If they would have made Mulan super white, super Caucasian, that would have been a problem. 0.78

00:57:32.000 If they would have made The Little Mermaid the right way, people would have been like, whatever.

00:57:41.000 Those are all stories that are new stories that are post...

00:57:45.000 Walt Disney's passing stories to take something that was so, you know, centric.

00:57:52.000 It's the first Disney movie.

00:57:53.000 It's the first real Disney movie that what built Disneyland, what built the empire.

00:58:00.000 It's like really a spitting in Walt Disney's face, which I really have a bigger problem culturally with and the historic nature of this whole thing.

00:58:09.000 I mean, you can be a woke...

00:58:10.000 Organization and company like they are today.

00:58:13.000 But what they've done is they've outrightly said with this, and nobody's really saying this clearly enough, is Disney hates itself.

00:58:22.000 That's well said.

00:58:24.000 You have to hate yourself to do this.

00:58:25.000 Speaking of, a thing that intersects with this that annoys me a lot is...

00:58:30.000 Part of the justification is they'll say Snow White's the oldest movie that's dated or offensive.

00:58:36.000 This comes up a lot and it really bothers me.

00:58:39.000 It is very common for people online or in the media to do casual smears and character assassination of Walt Disney, the person.

00:58:48.000 It's very common to see people claim he was anti-Semitic.

00:58:51.000 There's no evidence this was the case.

00:58:52.000 None whatsoever.

00:58:53.000 He said one vaguely Jewish-tinged joke to a guy who worked at Disney.

00:58:59.000 Once. That's it.

00:59:00.000 No evidence otherwise.

00:59:01.000 Which, by the way, there were tons.

00:59:03.000 Some of the top animators had Jewish backgrounds.

00:59:09.000 Tons. So it's like, no basis for this.

00:59:12.000 No basis for claiming he's this unhinged racist.

00:59:15.000 And what he was, in fact, was an actual great American patriot.

00:59:19.000 So, for example, World War II happens and he instantly says, Disney is going to...

00:59:25.000 In our odd way, go all in to help with the war efforts so you can find all these Disney movies.

00:59:30.000 Not just propaganda films where Donald Duck has to live in Nazi Germany. 0.53

00:59:35.000 Down with the Fuhrer or something?

00:59:37.000 Yeah, they also even made training movies, I believe.

00:59:40.000 You can find animated training films like how to aim your anti-aircraft gun.

00:59:46.000 Let's just wrap this up by playing 337.

00:59:49.000 And men, let me just give you a piece of advice.

00:59:51.000 Do not date people like Rachel Zegler.

00:59:53.000 Do not associate yourself.

00:59:55.000 Anyone who talks like this, anyone that approaches with this kind of vibe or energy, this is get away, run away.

01:00:04.000 This is complete red flag.

01:00:07.000 I was going to say something more, but I'm not going to.

01:00:10.000 Play cut 337.

01:00:11.000 No longer 1937.

01:00:13.000 She's not going to be saved by the prince.

01:00:16.000 She's not going to be dreaming about true love.

01:00:19.000 She's dreaming about becoming the leader she knows she can be and the leader that her late father told her that she could be if she was fearless, fair, brave, and true.

01:00:27.000 The original cartoon came out in 1937 and very evidently so.

01:00:32.000 There's a big focus on her love story with a guy who literally stalks her.

01:00:38.000 Weird. Weird.

01:00:40.000 So we didn't do that this time.

01:00:41.000 I was scared of the original cartoon.

01:00:44.000 I think I watched it once and then I never picked it up again.

01:00:46.000 I watched it for the first time in probably 16, 17 years.

01:00:52.000 The cartoon was made 85 years ago and therefore it's extremely dated when it comes to the ideas of women being in roles of power.

01:01:03.000 They paid $300 million to let the witch become Snow White.

01:01:08.000 Gal Gadot is the witch.

01:01:10.000 And we didn't even talk about, too, the patriotism of... 0.99

01:01:13.000 I know, which is ridiculous. 0.86

01:01:14.000 Of Walt Disney.

01:01:14.000 Walt Disney had plans to open up an Americana theme park that was supposed to be in Virginia.

01:01:18.000 I think in Manassas, right?

01:01:19.000 Yeah, in Virginia.

01:01:20.000 The original Epcot.

01:01:21.000 That would have been...

01:01:23.000 That's the only way, in my mind, Disney can make up for...

01:01:27.000 Decades of, you know, self-hatred.

01:01:29.000 It was going to be like total Americana.

01:01:31.000 All the time periods.

01:01:33.000 The best, all the different time periods.

01:01:34.000 And they shut it down because it was going to be near Manassas, so they said it would develop a Civil War battlefield.

01:01:39.000 And so they just went and developed the Civil War battlefield in other ways by making Nova an insufferable suburban sprawl.

01:01:47.000 All right, we have to run, everybody.

01:01:48.000 Keep committing thought crimes.

01:01:50.000 I was going to say don't watch Snow White, but there's no risk of that.

01:01:53.000 They're going to lose hundreds of millions of dollars on this.

01:01:57.000 But watch out for Narnia.

01:01:59.000 We need to be careful.

01:02:00.000 Netflix Narnia, I'm telling you guys, we've got to protect Narnia.

01:02:03.000 We have to.

01:02:04.000 The number that they said, Charlie, was $270 million to make, and then they spent well over $100 million to promote.

01:02:13.000 So they've got to break probably $400 million just to break even.

01:02:19.000 That will be not even close.

01:02:22.000 Doesn't look like it.
