00:00:04.780

00:00:11.660

00:00:18.720
just the conversation just the part about the history of lynching uh because you can't say

that word now uh and by the way we debunk that also uh the frenchy frenchman uh mitt romney
00:00:29.920

0.67
00:00:38.160
sat down with him all day yesterday and he's like i think i think rowan farrow is the bad guy here
00:00:44.880
it's an unbelievable interview as is the interview with steven crowder all of it on today's big show
00:00:52.040
podcast you're listening to the best of the blend back program
00:01:03.980
you know another place that it's cold is uh in the dnc right now they're like ah
00:01:13.800
ah ah this could be mcgovern this could be like a massive massive loss really you think
00:01:23.080
do you think well you'd think if you were confident in a victory you wouldn't need impeachment
00:01:30.240
right if you thought that the american people would see things the same way you see them
00:01:36.160
why would you bother with all of this yeah you wouldn't you wouldn't do it you just win
00:01:40.180
you'd be like it doesn't matter he's gonna he's not gonna be around long anyway they have zero
00:01:46.340
confidence in a win which is amazing i mean like look for all the things there are things that we
00:01:51.220
really like that trump has done but it's not as if he's an invincible poll machine it's not like
00:01:57.640
you're looking at you know uh reagan 84 here no you're not it's not like you're looking at looking
00:02:03.760
looking at a guy who is wounded he's wounded and he is also a guy who a lot of people didn't like
00:02:11.660
yeah a lot of people didn't like a lot of people still don't like and and you haven't found anyone
00:02:18.460
on your side that can beat him they all that's incredible it seems like they do see the vulnerability
00:02:24.780
here and you know we've talked about the impeachment thing as a tactic when it comes to uh you know we go
00:02:32.620
back to clinton and people say well that didn't work eventually clinton leaves office in a very
00:02:39.720
popular state um but i think what what what a lot of people have not looked at here is that it's never
00:02:46.220
really been tested this way it's never really been tested impeachment before an election no it's always
00:02:52.800
been in the second term at least in modern times for sure after the person got re-elected right like
00:02:59.500
nixon you know had a landslide election for 48 or 49 states uh 49 i don't know i think it was i think
00:03:08.220
it was 49 um 49 states he wins it's an absolute landslide and he comes in and think of that moment
00:03:15.420
like is that moment even possible today in 49 states and people start looking at this information and
00:03:20.980
slowly the polls move and and they change and they flip from him being incredibly popular to being
00:03:26.420
incredibly unpopular and then he resigns before him i think if it wasn't for impeachment uh because
00:03:33.320
the polls strangely are moving in that direction if it wasn't for this impeachment process i think
00:03:38.520
he could have done 49 states um meaning 48 maybe 48 are you talking about trump trump i think come on
00:03:48.980
i don't see any i mean look you never know but i don't see any polling that would support that
00:03:53.900
you're not elizabeth warren head to head i mean like you're not gonna get there's there's 20 states
00:03:59.580
that are never gonna vote for a republican right now like they're never gonna vote for a republican
00:04:03.100
elizabeth warren you're gonna go in and win rhode island with donald trump you have you're gonna go
00:04:07.660
win you're not gonna win those states if you have okay all right so let's say let's say
00:04:11.580
let's say 40 40 states 35 states landslide in today's world landslide if you had elizabeth warren
00:04:23.940
yeah who is talking about yeah we're gonna get rid of the free market and yeah babies can be killed
00:04:30.200
after birth all of these things the the average the average democrat would look at that as you're
00:04:38.320
standing in the in the polling booth and you'd be like i just can't i just can't do it they are
00:04:46.900
they know this there's a why there's a group of people that you're i think you're right on and and
00:04:52.460
it's the group of people that changed the election for donald trump last time yes it's the people that
00:04:57.360
voted for barack obama no but still now it was to trump in 2016 it was still hillary clinton and
00:05:05.360
people didn't like her because she was corrupt they still saw her more in the vein of her or of
1.00
00:05:11.660
her husband that you know the clintons it was fine under the clintons you know what i mean they saw her
00:05:18.760
as corrupt and that's what they didn't like but they didn't see her as who she i think really is a
0.88
00:05:23.920
sololinskyite that wants you know wants to fundamentally change america these people are no
00:05:31.460
they're saying they're like yeah you know another thing i think we red white and blue who's sick of
00:05:38.020
that because i'm sick of it what do you say we have black and red is our flag red and yellow anyone
00:05:43.920
i've got a cool you ever see a hammer and a sickle intertwined i mean it's crazy no i know and i think
00:05:50.720
that that i do think the group is larger than last time with a person like elizabeth warren and it's
00:05:55.740
funny that how the democrats have quote unquote learned their lesson from last time hey let's run the
00:06:00.100
exact same candidate except more socialist yeah more overtly socialist than the last one so the
00:06:05.460
people in the middle can't bring themselves to vote for the person even if they don't like the way
00:06:11.160
things are going i mean this is what is being said in their press no it's true but it's that does not
00:06:17.040
mean you get to 49 states i mean like you are not that is not a borderline thing we're talking about
00:06:22.880
we are way too partisan uh at this point for that type of election um with the exception of some
00:06:30.780
massive event that we're not factoring in i mean you know we let's get rid of all health insurance
00:06:37.940
no private health insurance you look at those things and those things poll let's say they're
00:06:43.300
not popular by the way we should point out that medicare for all as a policy is not popular
00:06:47.180
um even among democrats it's not all that popular however uh there are still plenty of voters to win
00:06:54.580
20 states that like medicare for all and when you and you get it to medicare for all who want it it
00:07:01.300
winds up being relatively popular that is not something that i think is a sane policy certainly
00:07:06.440
not something that we can afford i don't know if anyone has an extra 30 40 trillion laying around if
00:07:11.420
you do let me know but it is a it is i think we are part the partisan divide is wide enough and the
00:07:19.660
voting splits in a lot of these states is wide enough that like you know if you had the best
00:07:24.200
democrat in the world some you know an incredible candidate and you had the worst republican in the
00:07:29.020
world like they're still not winning utah they're still not winning wyoming that's just not gonna happen
00:07:36.260
in a presidential election at this time these were you know reagan was the last one really who was
00:07:42.280
able to do this nixon before i mean i think you're right about that because we have proof mitt romney
00:07:47.060
wins in utah and he's probably one of the worst republicans i've ever seen he won with 61 of the vote
00:07:53.740
in that election yeah he's this guy is he's sad he's sad i feel sorry for mitt romney what is sad
00:08:03.220
about a guy who was pretty close to being president of the united states feeling the need to hide on
00:08:08.640
twitter yeah what is sad about that here's a guy here's a guy who said i could be president of the
00:08:15.300
united states and i'll stand up for what i what i believe really will ya here's a guy who ran bain
00:08:22.160
capital who has i don't know hundreds of millions of dollars it has a great family is loved in his state
00:08:32.060
one with 61 of the vote is a respected guy and he doesn't have the courage to voice his opinion on twitter
00:08:44.600
what a coward what a sad pathetic life i i don't understand it i mean look the things he would put on his
00:08:55.460
little account there were generally it's not like he was like uh but he also picked a french name
00:09:01.740
it's like french the french surrender to our ship there's no one on the ship it's just just
00:09:10.200
you know get a tugboat take one of our carriers over to france they'll surrender to the ship i mean
00:09:15.680
really it's pathetic it's right surrender is a great way he's surrendered essentially to twitter
00:09:20.560
oh my gosh he's embarrassed like he can't deal with the ramifications of his own opinions
00:09:26.140
this is a man who wanted to be president of the united states how sad and pathetic i you know
0.50
00:09:31.320
i just i feel sorry for him i feel sorry for him i feel sorry that he is so worried that he that he's
00:09:41.420
just going to be unpopular with somebody that he just can't really say what he believes i mean and
00:09:47.560
listen to what he does say so can you imagine how far out of the mainstream he really is if this is
00:09:55.940
his oh i'm i'm gonna say these things those things are not popular with conservatives is he just i mean
00:10:03.580
you look at the stuff he liked i mean it was you know certainly anti-trump pro-romney content but it
00:10:12.620
wasn't like he was you know i really like this content from elizabeth warren right i mean like
00:10:18.140
he's liking you know i don't know because i don't know who the guy is he's hiding behind
00:10:21.740
mr french frenchman right so i have no idea he may be a french spy i don't know but it's sad
00:10:28.280
imagine being a spy for france um let me just give you this one one quote here um there is speculation
00:10:37.160
i love this that hillary clinton uh may may run uh for the the the be the nominee of the party
00:10:47.800
those close to clinton speaking on the condition of amenity uh because they were not authorized to
00:10:53.580
comment on her behalf says that she has felt vindicated over the past few weeks after trump's
00:10:59.160
political difficulties and that sentiment was reinforced when the state department announced
00:11:03.420
its probe into email sent by her private server blah blah blah ultimately said one of the insiders
00:11:10.020
it's unlikely that she would run but put it this way it ain't zero and does she think about it all
00:11:17.800
the time i'm quoting and does she think about it all the time absolutely and quote hang on we have
00:11:26.200
pierre on the phone yes oh mr dick yes pierre yes i believe i heard you talking uh about hillary
00:11:39.080
clinton uh yes we were just talking about hillary if she does run for president what about vice president
00:11:46.000
mit romney would be perfect this is mit romney isn't it this is right okay thank you very much
00:11:55.380
thank you pierre the best of the glenn beck program
00:12:01.380
hey it's glenn and you're listening to the glenn beck program if you like what you're hearing on
00:12:11.940
this show make sure you check out pat gray unleashed it's available wherever you download your favorite
00:12:17.880
podcasts so i don't know if this is actually nick de paulo uh from nick dip.com uh or if it is his
00:12:28.120
his uh his french uh you know uh pseudo uh pseudonym here uh uh like mit romney i don't know do you have
00:12:38.600
one of those or because he was mit romney is so brave he's willing to hide behind a french alias on twitter
00:12:47.000
you know he's the biggest disappointment i actually believed in that stiff i did two years
00:12:54.000
ago i did too you know i saw a documentary i go he's a good family man yep he's very bright he destroyed
00:13:00.020
obama and those debates and you know even the second one i i think he won but but anyways uh but
00:13:08.440
now he's just it turns out he's just another backstabbing two-faced uh gop relic it's he really
0.72
00:13:16.060
he really disappointed me that's why i'm voting for a liz warren
00:13:18.880
okay so what do you think the odds are that hillary clinton is did you see the quote i gave it earlier
00:13:27.040
there was a quote from somebody on her staff that said look i'm i don't think this is going to happen
00:13:31.840
is it possible yes it does she think about it all the time absolutely that's a quote does she think
00:13:40.720
about it all the time is that news no it's not this power hungry she's the most disgusting person
1.00
00:13:49.120
on the planet she's a sellout she was part of the lib revolution and and became a corporate shill
1.00
00:13:54.320
she slept with a guy who was very important and that's how she got to the top there's nothing
0.92
00:13:58.760
authentic about her she discussed me of course she's thinking about it and uh she's out there
00:14:04.240
touting her book with her daughter they had 11 people i think at the uh barnes and noble in san
00:14:09.980
antonio uh i have so i have so much to say about uh you know who would buy her book i thought i was
00:14:17.740
reading i bought it did you yes i did i took a shotgun in my backyard hanging up on my shed yeah right
00:14:25.460
through the eyes oh i uh i i tell you i i i thought who is paying her for another book and
00:14:32.360
then i realized oh crap it's simon and schuster the people who i'm publishing my last book with
00:14:37.640
so i'll save my there glenn i'll save my commentary and uh for a while what's it like to write a book i
00:14:44.860
can't even push out a pamphlet it's a nightmare it's a nightmare i'm in the middle i'm in the middle of
00:14:50.340
the final thing and i just said to somebody you know i know authors and they all say i can't talk
00:14:55.700
to anybody for like six months i've got to do all my jobs and write the book i have been sequestered
00:15:03.660
for the last few days except for this trying to get uh trying to get the final part on the book but
00:15:09.720
it's it's really good this one is about socialism and and elizabeth warren and aoc and all that you know
00:15:16.880
a lot about that didn't you spend your honeymoon in cuba was that you no that wasn't strangely
00:15:21.160
strangely not so uh uh let's go through some of the uh news of the day uh first of all the lynching
00:15:28.400
thing oh jeez please i and i was watching your friend hillary there she does a story she does a
1.00
00:15:36.260
story on uh you know biden and all these democrats back in the day using the lynching term then her next
00:15:41.840
story is about alzheimer's they have a new test for it i say they give it to the democrat party
00:15:46.820
and biden and uh and may i say the media did you see do we have the thing we played a little while
00:15:53.060
ago the ali velger thing from cnn please play this for so nick can see that this is crazy
00:15:58.900
that they all have amnesia or alzheimer's and they can't remember that the reason why they made
00:16:08.380
bill clinton the first black president was because they said his uh impeachment
00:16:15.500
was a lynching a modern day lynching here's here is msnbc yesterday trying to teach people
00:16:24.600
what lynchings really are listen to this president trump invoked lynching today when talking about
00:16:31.600
the constitutionally protected impeachment inquiry he said quote all republicans must remember what
00:16:37.460
they are witnessing here a lynching let's be clear lynchings were terrorism plain and simple slaughter
00:16:44.280
used to testify to terrify african i can't i can't take it nick i can't take it thank you for educating
00:16:51.640
me msnbc i had no idea that lynching was terrorism i'm sick of calling here's the problem glenn we always
00:17:00.220
call out the double standards i know i can't take it anymore but we do nothing about it i know
00:17:04.840
they're double and triple standards but we do nothing so what are we gonna do what do you do
00:17:09.340
what do you suggest oh okay let's change it now it's a raping it does that make you feel bad it's
00:17:14.140
not a lynching it's a rape i mean this whole thing where you can't use terms you know from back in the
00:17:19.380
day because i'm afraid to buy cool whip because you can't use slavery terms and and and you know we are
00:17:27.400
we are getting okay so i agree with you i come in every day every day i come in and i'm like i don't
00:17:34.740
want to talk about the double standard because it's just but then you just look at the news and
00:17:39.800

of stories here one uh the daily caller we asked every gop senator about impeachment and only seven
00:22:29.160
ruled it out and they're making it into a big deal that only seven ruled it out would you if you were
00:22:35.440
senator would you rule it out or you'd say i'd like to see the evidence i want to see you the case
00:22:41.360
or would you just rule it out i fight like the democrats i fight 30 i'd go i i rule it out i
00:22:47.080
wouldn't even think twice but this is all kabuki theater anyways glenn yeah let me ask you this okay
00:22:51.920
as from my understanding of impeachment if it passes in the house then the senate if there's an
00:22:57.820
impeachment trial becomes the jury yes this is how it works right you really think the republicans
00:23:03.380
are gonna convict trump and cut their own political throats and then no longer exist as a party
00:23:09.600
this is all but this is all symbolic on nancy pelosi's part and shift to cancers and blights
0.97
00:23:15.840
on this country it's all kabuki theater he's not going to get impeached just for that reason he's
00:23:21.920
actually i actually senate controls the the republicans control the senate what are we talking about here
00:23:27.140
wasting our time if it goes to the senate in a way i actually would like to see it go through
00:23:32.980
because they can call witnesses the other side and and if they're smart they turn this whole thing
00:23:39.080
around because the senate will the trump could make his case uh that is uh that i think is very very
00:23:48.260
clear that the media is just not covering bill o'reilly thinks i'm wrong on that because he said
00:23:53.420
nobody is gonna nobody's gonna watch it but i think people would i mean everybody watched the oj trial
00:23:59.820
everybody watched the impeachment of bill clinton i think they're gonna watch this yeah they also
00:24:05.440
watched american idol in record numbers and i'll be too sure i mean yeah yeah if this if there's
00:24:10.280
something on a and e that night but you're right uh about the kardashians it'll be uh neck and neck
00:24:16.420
that's why we're in this soup let me uh let me get your thoughts on this a new bill brought by a
00:24:21.560
massachusetts state legislature uh would make it a crime to maliciously call somebody excuse the
00:24:29.740
expression a bitch within the commonwealth that's the reason i moved out of massachusetts a couple
1.00
00:24:35.940
weeks ago i use that term a lot no you got that you got the three kids in connecticut who were
00:24:42.540
yelling racial slurs did you see that they got arrested yeah yelling racial so they got arrested
00:24:48.840
they were yelling so they were yelling the n-word uh in public but around a college campus and it
00:24:54.100
was fascinating the washington post wrote a whole story about it and at no point did they bring up
00:24:58.140
the first amendment question here can you get arrested for saying a word did you notice that
00:25:03.560
ali velchi what what he said on that msnbc thing the first thing he said was the constitutionally
00:25:10.140
protected impeachment it's the only time those guys ever talk about constitution oh yeah only time
00:25:15.940
only time well the other time they talk about it they say it's a living and breathing document
00:25:20.820
and i wish they i wish they felt that way about nine month old fetuses
00:25:33.000
what is a what's the life of a comedian really like my son wants to be a comedian
00:25:39.920
and uh he's not i suggest you find a methadone clinic real soon well it depends on what level
00:25:48.660
you're at it's it's uh it's fun when you're in your 20s you're on the road getting stds in every
00:25:54.800
city and you can laugh about it uh you know that part's fun then you hit your 30s and you're like
00:25:59.820
checking into the holiday express and and cleveland again for the eighth time and you're like do i really
00:26:05.060
want to see the bowling the bowling hall of fame again or the spam factory then you're like this
00:26:10.960
isn't that fun and then then you start calling escort services you know i called one call it was
0.75
00:26:15.960
called visiting angels i thought it was an escort service it turns out it's for all people health
00:26:19.540
care the nurse showed up with a bedpan we worked it into the fun but uh i i it's it's let me tell you
00:26:27.960
something you better be good at it because uh it can get pretty lonely out there it's when you're on
00:26:34.180
stage glenn it's the best thing in the world yeah uh when you come off stage like billy crystal
00:26:39.480
said mr saturday night all the guys want to be your friends all the girls over 400 pounds want to
0.96
00:26:44.140
sleep with you um it's it's great i haven't had a boss i haven't had a boss since 1988 and and you
00:26:52.440
know i used to be able to get up at noontime on a monday i was saying that till i met my manager
00:26:56.780
and we started doing this streaming show now now i keep the hours of a fisherman my alarm goes off at
00:27:01.560
5 a.m look at me i've aged 300 years and a lot so i know i'm actually only 20
00:27:07.260
tell your son to i mean if you got to get it out of your system you got to do it and if he goes up
00:27:17.200
and even two people laugh i'm telling you it's a drug i mean there's there can't be anything better
00:27:23.340
better than making people laugh and feel good and laugh hard that just i mean i can't imagine how
00:27:30.540
that's how they could not be addicting well the reason i did it somebody told me when i was young
00:27:35.840
if you can make a woman laugh you can make her do anything so that's why i get into it but i turned
0.99
00:27:40.340
i grew up and i loaded handgun has the same effect right but uh and uh in today's world that kind of
00:27:46.920
they're both kind of the same uh yes they are yeah so nick uh how's the special going we are at
00:27:54.320
about 920 000 views we only released this in may so i say we hit a million views by probably
00:28:01.340
thanksgiving uh breath of fresh air uh i'm the pioneer on this stuff folks i i hate to keep blowing
00:28:08.020
my own horn here but i was pushing these uh anti-pc things and doing this type of comedy
00:28:12.880
uh late 90s uh so i i've taken a beat and i've been i've been assaulted by a woman after a show
00:28:21.040
i i've been on the phone with the fbi uh twice this year uh about threats and uh i've put in my dues
00:28:27.860
anybody that comes out to my show it's not because they saw me on tv or because i'm famous it's because
00:28:32.720
of my comedy and uh i'm doing it the hard way but uh the special is a really it really is nick
00:28:40.400
apollo essence i i i let it fly and even billy burr said to me you know he's politically he's a little
00:28:46.580
opposite of me but he said this special is good for comedy so i think uh you know people are looking
00:28:51.940

become one today and listen on your own time you can subscribe on itunes thanks we have john ziegler
00:29:39.740
on the program today now if you're a longtime listener of this program you may have heard him
00:29:45.020
in the past and uh he generally uh seems to make a lot of sense he generally uh well he's not popular
00:29:53.400
and he's not popular because he's always on the other side of things always uh and many times he's
00:30:02.180
right now he just spent the day yesterday with matt lauer and uh and i thought you know we should have
00:30:12.680
we should have john uh on the on the radio program because we haven't heard matt lauer's side of the
00:30:21.080
story but i am i'm concerned that john ziegler because there isn't anybody that's you know
00:30:28.660
rushing and saying hey john i was part of the armenian genocide uh please defend me i think he
00:30:37.520
you know he may ah he may end up being the most hated man in america welcome to the program john
00:30:44.740
ziegler wow i've had a lot of interesting intros on this program but that one takes the cake wow
00:30:49.680
well i mean you know you don't you did and like i said you're generally right i think the things that
00:30:57.160
you've said i'm just afraid of where you're gonna where you're gonna take this one well look uh here's
00:31:03.960
the the bottom line of this um you know matt lauer as you guys obviously know was one of the biggest
00:31:10.160
media stars in the world in november of 2017 got fired in the midst of the post harvey weinstein
00:31:16.620
me too situation has never done an interview of any kind since then and now with ronan farrow's new
00:31:23.460
book uh alleging that he raped an nbc former nbc producer named brooke nevels in uh in the at the
00:31:31.700
socio olympics in 2014 uh something that she never claimed before until uh by any evidence until she
00:31:38.760
spoke to ronan farrow which i don't think is coincidental um i'm you know matt lauer who i
00:31:45.360
have known in the past because i've done three major interviews with him on other issues um i uh
00:31:54.040
he called me uh about uh a week and a half ago and and and said can we talk i said sure and um you know
00:32:04.240
we've probably spoke about three hours on the phone partially about the the facts of uh the case
00:32:10.440
uh partially about negotiating a potential meeting and get together off the record interview uh and so
00:32:17.940
eventually uh we we did that and yesterday i this is so crazy only john ziggler would be dumb enough to
00:32:25.220
do this i i i took a red-eye flight from los angeles to new york drove out to the hamptons spent the entire
00:32:32.780
day with matt lauer and flew back also i didn't have to pay for a damn hotel room um so so um so
0.60
00:32:40.480
i'm a little a little tired right now because i'm back and i'm back in la oh good sleep deprivation
00:32:47.600
uh is like truth serum so so tell us what you're thinking john well well i can assure you that if
00:32:54.680
anybody uh if there was some way to have uh aired live video of the five and a half hours i spent
00:33:02.700
the grilling matt lauer uh yesterday uh in the hamptons and then that was somehow accessible to
00:33:09.340
the public though it would have been a super bowl rating oh i'm sure it would have um this was i have
00:33:15.480
done a lot of very high profile uh interviews in my career um and this was the most extraordinary
00:33:23.820
of its kind that i've that i've ever done um this is uh on multiple levels on a human level i'm talking
00:33:31.380
about just on a human level i mean this is a man who uh admits to making enormous mistakes uh and and
00:33:38.100
i grill him over those uh and by the way all this is in a column uh entitled after meeting with matt
00:33:46.300
lauer he has a compelling story but does he have a fair place to tell it which has just gone out on
00:33:52.720
media i thought it was going to go out a little earlier than it did but you know how these things
00:33:57.620
work in this business so that apparently is now out um and i urge people to read it we took a photo
00:34:04.780
together to prove that we had met that was one of the conditions of the of the meeting and uh i'll just
00:34:11.280
say it because um you know you this is the way i am i am convinced that the idea that he raped this
00:34:19.280
woman uh is absurd i mean i i it is and and i think that there are there are people who are very
00:34:27.220
very very close to the story and to her who know that the allegation is absurd and they have not been
00:34:36.200
willing to come forward publicly uh they've done so privately i would urge them to come forward
00:34:41.740
publicly and tell the real truth of what happened here but uh i i also think i said there's multiple
00:34:47.360
levels to this there's the human level there's the the allegation you know what actually happened and
00:34:52.120
then there's also the ronan farrow issue and i gotta tell you glenn uh you know i bought into the
00:34:57.400
whole ronan farrow thing back during harvey weinstein and then when he went after brett kavanaugh and what i
00:35:02.780
refer to as a an urban legend i started to go like so whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa what's going on here
00:35:09.340
and now after i've gotten deep into this matt lauer thing and when i read his two chapters on matt lauer
00:35:15.800
which are a freaking joke i mean they are a journal they are journalistic garbage this is page six meets
0.79
00:35:24.660
alex jones type stuff okay this is insanity what he was allowed to write and he's allowed to do it
00:35:32.300
because he's now a media darling who gets no scrutiny whatsoever he is a dangerous man glenn the the
00:35:41.420
idea that he is now the arbiter of of you know adult male female sexual relationships is just
00:35:49.180
unbelievable so because i thought this the kavanaugh thing was an interesting moment with ronan farrow
00:35:54.460
because he really tried to parlay his credibility with the weinstein thing into taking kavanaugh out
00:36:02.220
including embracing like the ninth string accusers of kavanaugh not even the main ones and he didn't
00:36:09.140
seem like the ones that avenatti was like okay this is ridiculous i mean he really he really went to
00:36:16.100
the well i thought it was the uh the moment where he jumped the shark yeah i i i thought and it was an
00:36:21.860
eye-opening moment i agree with you stew 100 that that's what he tried to do he tried to use his street
00:36:26.360
cred on weinstein to take out kavanaugh now at that point to me he was an activist but that doesn't
00:36:32.100
mean you're you're always wrong i mean maybe he just missed one maybe he just missed one on that
00:36:36.540
but now that i've gotten in the details on this uh like what have you like what did you find out
00:36:45.960
is that you know um ronan farrow met with matt lauer just before publication and ronan farrow
00:36:54.440
acknowledged to matt and to another person who i spoke to this other person as well that um brooke
00:37:01.860
nevels uh this is this is these are ronan farrow's words and it came to her uh uh conclusion that
00:37:09.340
blauer had or quote unquote raped her quote in hindsight in hindsight in other words after
00:37:17.940
with many years after it happens after the firing where she never tells nbc anything about a rape
00:37:26.200
she tells nbc about a consensual affair on company property that's why matt lauer got fired and that's
00:37:34.640
there's been a lot of media smoke surrounding all of that but people don't need they need to
00:37:39.200
understand that that's how this all went down it was in the midst of that moral panic post weinstein
00:37:44.640
me too nbc needs a scout because they're being attacked on their their rejection of the ronan
00:37:51.480
farrow weinstein story and they decapitate matt lauer in 24 hours uh for what i believe was more
00:37:57.920
political purposes than anything else the rules changed and by the way lauer never even fought that
00:38:03.440
he never fought his contract being broken he he didn't do an interview about it because he felt
00:38:08.900
horrible about what he had done to his family and he didn't want to fight it he accepted
00:38:13.220
responsibility for his mistakes and he thought that was going to be the end of it and now he's being
00:38:18.060
accused of rape because as you guys know once the media decapitates you now they feel like they can
00:38:23.380
feed off your carcass oh yeah and and and so and so this is what's happened here farrow is promoting
0.83
00:38:29.600
what i believe in to be an activist position on on me too using matt lauer's carcass well now matt lauer's
00:38:37.920
like well wait a minute i gotta fight back and but he doesn't know how to do it because we don't
00:38:42.240
live in a world where there is any sense of media fairness on this issue especially and and so you
00:38:48.880
know and he's being bombarded with interview uh requests constantly and of course you know it's
00:38:54.420
perfectly logical that when that happens you go to john ziggler instead which well i will tell you
00:38:59.060
this john i mean i wouldn't go to the mainstream media i wouldn't i'd go to somebody like you i'd go
00:39:05.400
someplace where the guy has a reputation of listening to the other side because i've done
00:39:13.160
too many interviews and seen and matt is you know matt knows this too many interviews where the
00:39:20.360
interviewer is just coming in for a ratings hit or to increase their popularity or whatever they don't
00:39:28.020
actually care to listen they know what they're looking for and that's the way most people are
00:39:35.400
a hundred percent on this issue that's exactly what has happened and as far as you know me assessing his
00:39:41.480
credibility let me just tell you how um the uh how this went down i mean i am the person who told matt
00:39:50.920
lauer i don't know what percentage but a huge percentage of what is in ronan farrow's book because
00:39:57.640
he didn't even want to read it he's so disgusted by it so i'm i'm getting his reaction to in real time
00:40:04.400
real time to the allegations now if you've done a million interviews as well that's about as as
00:40:11.420
as credible as it gets in determining someone's uh you know whether or not their story makes sense
00:40:16.900
because this isn't a cover story he's coming to me with let me tell you my version of events and
00:40:21.500
i've got x y and z all nailed down he's literally reacting to me in real time to things he's never
00:40:28.360
heard before and has extraordinary detail extraordinary detail in his responses he didn't
00:40:36.240
uh sidestep any of my inquiries i mean you you guys know me i mean we spent five and a half hours
00:40:42.300
talking about this we weren't talking about why the yankees didn't make the world series okay i mean
00:40:46.160
this was this was as excruciating uh at five and a half hours as matt lauer could possibly have ever
00:40:52.680
experienced uh you know verbally in his life uh i mean there's it was emotional at times uh it was
00:40:59.460
extremely fact-based he was as open as i could have possibly imagined he has an incredibly compelling
00:41:07.060
story and this story goes way beyond matt lauer
00:41:16.160
like listening to this podcast if you're not a subscriber become one now on itunes
00:41:31.700
and while you're there do us a favor and rate the show we welcome to the program
00:41:36.440
the host of louder with crowder steven crowder hey steven how are you
00:41:44.960
uh not good glenn not good what did you just not good i just go ahead you had me i was listening to
00:41:53.600
your advertisements your sponsors and wonderful you do a great job thanks i will say this glenn
00:41:58.700
you're probably one of the best guys i know when i used to watch uh on fox when you would use a
00:42:04.020
a prompter and i know the scandal prompter right because you're doing a full hour show it's really
00:42:07.960
hard to tell if something is written or you're off the cuff and that's really just the performance
00:42:13.060
artist in you it's it's a real skill and i envy it but i'm not doing well because um i was waiting
00:42:18.360
here while you're doing your sponsors and i found uh found myself reading a buzzfeed listicle i guess
00:42:22.900
they call them you know yeah i mean now now i just now i want to kill myself why what is it what
0.76
00:42:28.780
is the listicle about what did you find it doesn't matter it's the fact that it's buzzfeed
00:42:33.500
so i know it's national awareness day and i just think these are these are the these are the issues
00:42:40.480
that slide in between the cracks and if we were to look at you know the current uh suicide epidemic
00:42:45.080
it's a pandemic i i think there's some responsibility of buzzfeed articles i think buzzfeed articles lead to
00:42:50.440
mass suicide theory i think it's a pretty good theory myself uh it's why i don't go to buzzfeed
00:42:57.540
uh just you know what that's maybe that's why no one's talking about it yeah probably has a
00:43:02.500
it sounds like a relatively simple solution yeah i've got a listicle uh number one don't go there
00:43:07.240
and yeah uh all right so steven yesterday your show was really compelling uh and you were trending
00:43:15.420
uh on youtube as you were as you were taking youtube apart uh i love this about you because
00:43:23.040
they they don't want to hide you anymore because you're just exposing them tell it tell the audience
00:43:29.920
go ahead i think there's stuff between a rock and a hard place i know i want to make sure people
00:43:34.660
understand like with my channel and the monetization all that stuff is separate from from what we stumbled
00:43:39.520
across so for people who haven't found uh who haven't watched this video yet it's available at youtube
00:43:43.400
it's available at the blaze listen we were demonetized last summer and so when that started
00:43:48.060
happening that wasn't really what concerned us what concerned us was this all of a sudden drop off in
00:43:52.660
organic reach and search and we realized that we weren't you know we weren't showing up if you type
00:43:57.720
in steven crowder change my mind my stuff doesn't show up and we told people in the audience hundreds of
00:44:04.700
thousands of people responded or sent screenshots and some of them said we were lying saying no you show
00:44:08.800
up perfectly fine well why is there such a discrepancy in the search results well we realized that
00:44:13.260
if people were searching in the united states exclusively my content wouldn't show up but if
00:44:18.720
they switch their vpn you know effectively which is like a digital web kind of address to germany or
00:44:23.160
spain anywhere that's not the u.s it would show up so we said okay let's run some more tests on this
00:44:28.220
and we just happen to be running some tests because we've been going back and forth with youtube
00:44:32.380
on tulsi gabbard because everyone was talking about some you know everyone had some suspicions that
00:44:37.160
she's being kind of silenced by the dnc and uh what happened was immediately the night when hillary
00:44:43.540
clinton accused um tulsi gabbard of being a russian asset which by the way apparently i'm paid by the
00:44:49.060
russians to reveal this information as well that that was another that's really good you know steven
00:44:53.780
steven honestly honestly hang on just a sec i have to ask you this aside question as a comedian as a guy
00:44:59.620
who makes a lot of money writing comedy and delivering comedy this you couldn't have even
00:45:06.540
come up with a hillary clinton story that she is peddling now about her the election tulsi gabbard
00:45:12.620
i mean it's beyond reason right no i mean last week we just had a sketch with donald trump twitch
00:45:19.700
streaming uh minecraft and it's less absurd than the current story with hillary clinton right um yeah so so
00:45:26.620
so what happened was if you search tulsi gabbard anywhere not in the united states her channel
00:45:31.880
showed up and videos from her channel showed up she switched her vpn exclusively to the united states
00:45:36.860
she was nowhere to be found and then it switched right back when she stopped trending so effectively
00:45:43.720
she was not able to defend herself and keep in mind tulsi gabbard has a lawsuit a pending lawsuit
00:45:48.360
against google and youtube for shutting her out from google ads during the debate and you and i know this
00:45:53.800
glenn you have a window of opportunity with a debate especially if you're kind of seen in the
00:45:57.780
second tier candidate and you gain some momentum and that's what's happened with tulsi she's kind
00:46:01.940
of like the left uh carly fiorina you know she's done really well in the base impressed a lot of people
00:46:07.000
and then people can't find her when they search her so this is one of those it was so bizarre to me
00:46:12.020
youtube says well it's geographically based and we want to best serve our audience i would love for
00:46:17.660
youtube and google to answer me you anyone particularly their shareholders why they think it is best
00:46:23.780
serving the audience to not offer them up the channel of a sitting representative who is
00:46:29.580
currently running for president of the united states only in the united states it doesn't make
00:46:35.940
any sense uh we don't know exactly what's happening but we do know that we tested this for multiple
00:46:41.660
different dpns and the same results came up all the time okay so let me let me let me just break this
00:46:47.580
down for people in case you one more time in case you didn't you didn't get this tulsi gabbard was
00:46:54.380
trending outside of the united states where you would think the trend would be lower because why does
00:47:02.860
somebody in spain care about this right you know this thing with tulsi gabbard most americans don't
00:47:08.820
even know tulsi gabbard how do the you know how do the spanish why are they why is she trending there
0.99
00:47:14.660
okay not trending here until she stopped for spanish pardon me her defense she has that sort
1.00
00:47:21.820
of she could be confused for spanish in her in their defense she has that really very uh very
0.69
00:47:25.980
appealing generically like abercrombie ethnic look where you're like
00:47:28.840
they're polynesian i will say this i find her very attractive her and nikki haley very attractive but i
00:47:37.060
do have to correct you tulsi gabbard was trending in the united states on twitter and on facebook
00:47:42.240
so she was trending even in the united states but right search tulsi gabbard on youtube where she
00:47:47.700
has a channel by the way you didn't find tulsi gabbard content you found other content from people
00:47:54.140
uh accusing her or news outlets accusing her being a russian outlet so she was trending okay so wait a
00:47:58.780
minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute so her content and that includes one
00:48:02.620
of the things she was doing on her channel that was live right i i can't confirm that she was doing
00:48:08.840
something live at that moment but again it was her channel wasn't showing up nor videos from her
00:48:14.080
channel so she was trending and then if you're on if you go onto youtube from any country that's not
00:48:19.340
the united states and you search tulsi gabbard boom tulsi gabbard's direct uh channel and video show up
00:48:25.240
the only place where it was like a ghost she didn't show up at all was the united states do we have any idea
00:48:31.480
yet of what their defense is of of this steven well you know in our case we stumbled across it because
00:48:38.460
they've been doing this with change my mind like i don't know why if you type in even crowd or change
00:48:42.320
my mind someone i don't know why youtube would serve them you know a rebuttal video from an atheist
00:48:46.820
with two subscribers saying that i work for the russians but that's what happens usually when we
00:48:51.520
talk with youtube they offer three defenses right it's an algorithm okay well an algorithm is created
00:48:55.900
by a person right and here's the thing we've talked with youtube quite a bit and they actually
00:49:00.960
switched our channel recently to whatever it's called like an official verified preferred channel
00:49:05.140
when we complain so someone flipped the switch so that our channel shows up now which means it's
00:49:10.140
not an algorithm we are in a position to prove and say no no we spoke with high reps at youtube
00:49:15.260
they fixed our channel so that would be one defense that's not true that it's just an algorithm
00:49:19.620
another ultimately is someone who makes this call then they can say well the algorithms are
00:49:23.620
geographically based to best serve an audience again how does it best serve the american audience for
00:49:28.680
them to exclusively not find someone running for president of the united states right then they might try and
00:49:33.640
say well just some lower level employee but i've got to imagine because my name is i mean they've been
00:49:39.640
watching our our narcos parody and our our transgender breastfeeding hitler sketches at youtube headquarters
00:49:46.280
because they've talked with us about it they've talked with us about these sketches which to me it's
00:49:49.880
hysterical that in palo alto they're watching a lot of the kind of content i can just imagine the
00:49:54.560
counseling that has to take place i'm trying to imagine that the management of a channel of a sitting
00:50:00.660
presidential candidate who is currently suing the company wouldn't be passed off to some patsy for
00:50:05.980
the higher up and while we're talking about preferred channel status because that's a new change youtube
00:50:10.580
has made shouldn't all people running for president of the united states right now shouldn't there be a
00:50:16.540
meeting that all of them have official verified channel status why would Tulsi Gabbard not so they can
00:50:22.560
make those arguments i don't think it passes the sniff test and i don't think it passes the common sense
00:50:27.660
test most people will go well of course i assume that if google who by the way control 90 percent
00:50:33.520
of the search market globally google if we talk about you know the example i use is if jfk were not
00:50:40.480
able to get on nbc abc cbs back in the day they blacklisted him he would have never been the candidate
00:50:44.720
he would have never been president well google has at least that much power much more globally and
00:50:49.700
they're in more households and used by more americans than all tv networks combined and if they are not
00:50:56.220
acting truthfully or at least most americans would assume well if i'm going on to google or if i'm
00:51:00.280
going to youtube i just like Tulsi Gabbard and debate i want to see what she has to say i don't
00:51:04.480
think anyone in their right mind would ever assume that youtube would be preventing them from seeing
00:51:09.980
Tulsi Gabbard's content but that's the that's the problem with there's there's a bias by uh proactive
00:51:15.400
lies which we see but this is far more subversive because people never know it and and that really
00:51:21.560
really worries me this is the most powerful company in the history of the world and i mean that i mean
00:51:28.440
that you go to the west indian trading company you can look at the english empire no one has the
00:51:33.600
influence over the delivery of information right now that google youtube have maybe if you add up
00:51:39.840
facebook twitter and all of them tend to be lean significantly less i will tell you steven that
00:51:44.420
this is the first time i've said this uh recently a couple of times and uh and i and and maybe
00:51:50.200
somebody can correct me on this but this is the first time that i think that our founders
00:51:55.400
just couldn't even imagine and you know it's not like they could imagine that we weren't you know
00:52:01.160
we're going to go to the moon or something like that i mean that when they're putting the constitution
00:52:04.920
together they couldn't imagine that people in power in the government would cede their power to each
00:52:13.280
other and then to a corporation and a corporation would be bigger than any government and possibly
00:52:22.420
all governments of the world they just would have never seen that right and like you said i don't
00:52:29.160
want to go down that slippery slope of you know people say well the first amendment doesn't apply to
00:52:32.700
iphones no it applies to everything but in this case it's a little different because youtube and google
00:52:36.820
by the way have hosted political debates people send in their questions via youtube they have chosen
00:52:42.900
to engage in the political sphere right now and they have come out and said we are a public platform
00:52:49.240
they are not a publisher but if they are creating algorithms or if someone is manually removing search
00:52:55.100
results from a current presidential candidate that is not acting like a platform that is acting like
00:53:00.500
a publisher what we need is transparency what we need are answers and i want to be really clear
00:53:04.780
i can't stand most of tulsi gabbard's policies i you know and when people say well she's one of the
1.00
00:53:10.480
more reasonable ones that's because she's the only current democratic candidate who said there should
00:53:14.240
be some cutoff for abortion and it was 28 weeks that's seven months so she says let's stop abortion after
0.85
00:53:20.840
seven months how about that and they go russia russia russia russian plan so it's odd to me that google and
00:53:26.640
these tech companies like tulsi gabbard isn't far left enough it's it's it's mind-boggling and i i i think
00:53:33.900
it's super important because listen i think donald trump's going to win and of course i don't want
00:53:38.520
tulsi gabbard to be president of course i don't want bernie sanders to be president but i want it
00:53:42.500
to be an honest win i want the democrats to still get the candidate that they've chosen right donald
00:53:47.660
trump was not supported by donors that's a great example how did donald trump become president
00:53:51.760
people wanted him and he was using new media social media right it wasn't if you were to compare
00:53:57.320
the power that's wielded from big money be it the coke brothers or big oil to google and big tech
00:54:03.480
it's not even close because we have a president who don't have the backing of that big money he had
00:54:09.340
his own mediums on new media and that and they've come out and said we didn't do anything to stop
00:54:14.120
donald trump and now it looks like they're trying to stop tulsi gabbard i can't say it one with 100
00:54:20.000
percent fact but i can absolutely say that when this was trending if you search tulsi gabbard on youtube
00:54:25.160
you did not get tulsi gabbard and that is either an oversight there's such complete ineptitude that
00:54:31.600
they cannot be running 90 percent of search information that needs to be more transparency
00:54:36.400
or they need to answer for something more sinister going on stephen crowder from uh from louder with
00:54:42.840
crowder you can uh sign up follow him on youtube uh and uh you can find him at louderwithcrowder.com
