Transcript

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, Democrats just passed a bill to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour.
00:00:06.240 I'm going to explain, and it's going to sound cruel and heartless, but actually it's not,
00:00:09.780 I'm going to explain why the minimum wage should actually be zero. Also, a measure passed in
00:00:15.720 California a few years ago that has now made it so that thieves can just walk into any convenience
00:00:21.280 store they want and steal whatever they want, basically without consequence. We'll discuss that.
00:00:25.640 And the scariest trailer of all time was just released. And it's not the It trailer. I'm not
00:00:31.000 talking about that. It's something else, much scarier than that. I'll play that for you today
00:00:34.420 on the Matt Wall Show. You know, I have to say I'm pretty upset today. I just read the news that
00:00:46.240 Berkeley City Council is getting rid of a bunch of offensive words from its city code, which is
00:00:52.740 great. For instance, the word manhole is gone now in Berkeley. It's going to be replaced with
00:00:59.380 maintenance hole. And that's, I mean, thank God, right? Because I can't tell you as a father of a
00:01:05.580 daughter, I can't tell you how many times my daughter has broken down in tears because she's
00:01:10.300 being excluded from the language we use to describe sewers. It's very traumatizing for her. So they're
00:01:15.920 solving that, but it's not all good, you see, because Berkeley has also gotten rid of any mention
00:01:21.340 of men and women from the code, instead replacing it with the word people. But wait a second, people?
00:01:32.120 People? Language like that is highly, highly offensive to furries like Beto. How do you think
00:01:41.140 it makes them feel? Can you imagine how excluded you would feel if you identified as, say, a six-foot-tall
00:01:47.920 chicken, and now everyone's going around using a word like people? I think individual or entity, I think
00:01:57.000 it's probably even more, you want to be as ambiguous as, but entity, right, would be the more progressive
00:02:02.700 choice. So it's, it's, Berkeley is, they're getting there, they're, they're, you know, on the right path, but
00:02:09.600 they have not progressed nearly enough for my taste anyway. So I just wanted to mention that to begin
00:02:16.220 with. Okay, much to discuss today, and actually, we're going to actually revisit the discussion of
00:02:23.040 furries a little bit later, because there's a, there's gonna be a big hit movie coming out, a musical
00:02:27.880 all about furries, and so, which is another sign of our decaying culture. So I wanted to, well, we'll talk
00:02:34.000 about that later, though. But first, you know, I think we can all agree, we should be able to all
00:02:40.160 agree that we could all use more sleep, right? Especially those of us who are parents, you know,
00:02:44.480 as a parent, your sleep time, however little there might be, is very precious, and you want to make
00:02:50.520 the most of it, you want to, you want to pack in as much sleeping as you can in those two and a half
00:02:56.040 to three hours that you get, and that's where Bowlin Branch comes in. Getting a great night's sleep

00:04:00.420 All right, so let me begin here. Not going to spend much time on this, which is what I always
00:04:10.420 say before I ramble about something for 57 minutes. I'll try to have a better follow-through
00:04:14.860 this time, though. We've talked this week quite a bit about Trump and Trump-related issues,
00:04:21.980 and I have criticized Trump, God forbid. That's something that I do on occasion, maybe you've
00:04:26.700 noticed. But as always, when those occasions arise, people get upset. It has, I guess,
00:04:34.700 been decided by people other than myself that my job is to obsequiously justify and defend
00:04:43.260 everything Trump does or says. That's my job, according to them. Now, personally, I would rather
00:04:48.600 be dead than sacrifice my intellectual integrity for the sake of a politician. If I'm going to
00:04:55.900 sacrifice my intellectual integrity for anything, it's not going to be for a politician. I would
00:05:00.480 choose death over that. I really would. Who would want to live like that? So that's just a difference
00:05:09.020 of opinion, though, I suppose, me with other people. The point is, I've gotten a lot of feedback,
00:05:15.980 shall we say, this week. And a lot of people asking, a lot of people asking, saying, you know,
00:05:22.680 so are you a Trump supporter or not? What are you, one of those dastardly never-Trumpers? Is that what
00:05:27.180 you are? What's up with all the criticism? And so on. It seems kind of late in the game to be having
00:05:33.560 this conversation almost three years in, but I guess it still needs to be had. So that's fine.
00:05:38.660 I want to just briefly, for those who have been asking, explain my strategy or maybe my philosophy
00:05:48.820 of Trump. Philosophy of Trump. That's what I'm going to explain. It's very simple. Okay, it goes
00:05:54.640 like this. When it comes to Trump, I will criticize him when I think he's wrong, which he is wrong
00:06:01.320 sometimes. And that's because he's not God. He's not a perfect being. He can be wrong. He's fallible.
00:06:08.160 And so when he is, I say so. When he's right, when he does and says a good thing, in my opinion,
00:06:13.980 I defend him. And he is right sometimes because he's not Hitler. He's not Satan. He can be right.
00:06:20.040 And when he is, I say so. And that's it, really. That's the whole thing. That's the whole,
00:06:24.260 that's the kit and caboodle. Super simple. Agree, I say so. Disagree, I say so. There you go,
00:06:30.740 the end. That's all. It's not, it's not virtue signaling. It's not putting on a show. It's not
00:06:36.100 trying to appeal to this or that group. And this, no, it's just, I'm just, I say what I think. If
00:06:41.740 I disagree, I say, that's it. That's really it. Am I a never Trumper? No, I don't even know what
00:06:47.820 that label means. That's the dumbest label. Never. He's in office. And maybe you've noticed
00:06:52.960 he's president. So even if I wanted to be a never Trumper, I wouldn't know how to be one. What do you
00:06:59.300 mean never what exactly? He's there. He won. So what do you mean never? What am I never,
00:07:05.760 if I was a never Trumper, what is it that I'm never doing? He's, it's not like we have to go and
00:07:11.520 vote for him again every single day that he's in office. So that's not an issue on a day-to-day
00:07:16.820 basis while he's in office, what would being a never Trumper entail? If it me, if it entails,
00:07:21.960 if the never means never support him, never agree with him under any circumstance,
00:07:29.800 then that's just insane. And, and I, and there are some people, some so-called
00:07:35.660 conservatives, some maybe former conservatives who have taken that approach and have decided
00:07:42.380 basically to become liberals. I mean, really become liberal and to, to accept liberal ideas
00:07:48.160 and to support the Democrat party because they hate Trump so much. I guess that's what a never
00:07:52.340 Trumper is now. And that is, uh, just a ridiculous point of view that, um, this idea that you're going
00:07:59.920 to now accept an entirely different philosophy and ideology, just because you don't like one guy who
00:08:08.040 subscribes to the other, uh, ostensibly subscribes anyway to the other philosophy that, that doesn't
00:08:14.500 make any sense. So I'm not that, um, I'm all, but am I a Trump fan? No, I'm not a Trump fan because
00:08:21.560 I'm not a fan of any politician. As I've said many times, fandom and politics don't mix. You want to be
00:08:28.600 a fan of someone, then be a fan of a, of a, of a, of a sports star, be a fan of a sports team, be a fan
00:08:34.780 of a rock star, be a fan of a band. Um, but pom-poms don't belong in politics. Leave your pom-poms at home
00:08:41.180 when it's time to talk about politics. I don't think that we should ever be a fan of any politician
00:08:46.260 period. Am I a Trump supporter? Well, even to that, I would say no, because, because of this,
00:08:53.660 my support for Trump, just like for any politician is completely conditional. I have no loyalty to
00:08:58.980 politicians, none whatsoever. I'm loyal to my family. I'm loyal to my wife, to my kids. Uh, there are
00:09:04.920 people to which I am loyal. Um, there are situations where I think loyalty is important.
00:09:11.180 But politics is not one of them. I am absolutely not loyal to any politician because they work for
00:09:18.880 me and they work for you, right? They work for us. That's how, that's how this is supposed to work.
00:09:23.200 They're supposed to earn our support on a day-to-day basis, continue earning it. Um, the,
00:09:29.680 the bank account is basically always empty because it's, they, they earn it and then, but they could lose
00:09:35.500 it the next day. So they're really not, it's, it's, it's politicians. They're not building up much,
00:09:41.980 much, um, you know, they're not, they're not accruing much wealth in that department.
00:09:47.600 They have to keep earning it every single day because the thing is we know about politicians
00:09:52.200 is they can flip-flop. They can change. Uh, they can betray their promises. They can do all that.
00:09:58.640 The politicians do it all the time, which is why I think we should never stake out a position as,
00:10:03.320 well, I'm a supporter of this person. I support them in this situation right now,
00:10:09.940 given what they're doing, but that could change tomorrow. In which case I'm going to kick them to
00:10:15.380 the curb because I have no emotional attachment. I have no affection. It is totally transactional.
00:10:23.740 It's like you're, you're, you're doing what I want right now. I agree with you right now. I support you.
00:10:27.340 But if you, if you stray, you're done. Uh, that's my approach. That's, that's my formula. That's what
00:10:37.900 I, that's how I approach, as I said, every politician period. This, this is, this is the
00:10:44.360 way I look at it. I don't make exceptions for anybody. And I think that, look, we all have our
00:10:49.800 own approaches. I of course am biased in favor of my own, but I do think that this is actually kind
00:10:55.940 of the right way of going about it as an American. I think this is what our founders had in mind.
00:11:02.780 They had in mind for us to be skeptical, um, of anyone in power, be skeptical of anyone in power
00:11:11.300 for the simple fact that they're there because they wanted to be in power. If they have power
00:11:16.960 in America, it means they wanted power. And so we should be skeptical of them.
00:11:20.980 Um, that's, that's sort of the catch 22 of politics is that, you know, you could, I forget
00:11:28.720 the quote from someone, um, who, uh, now I've totally forgotten it. So I'm going to completely
00:11:34.360 mangle it, but you know, the, the people who are least suited for power are precisely the
00:11:43.540 kinds of people who would pursue power. And that's, that's just, that's the catch 22.
00:11:50.540 So the very fact that someone would pursue it means that we should be skeptical because we
00:11:53.760 should be saying, well, what, what, what, hold on a second. What are you so desperate to be in
00:11:57.320 charge for? What's going on here? And so we always maintain that skepticism, uh, at all times.
00:12:04.240 I think that's, that's just the way I look at it. All right. Democrats in the, um, in the house
00:12:11.640 yesterday passed the raise the wage act, which would hike the federal minimum wage to 15 bucks an
00:12:19.240 hour. It's not going to be taken up in the Senate, so it's not going to become a law, but it could
00:12:24.240 become law eventually. Uh, if Dems take control, this is one of the many horrible things they plan
00:12:28.760 to do. And I do think it's horrible. Uh, I know it's a, it's, it seems on the, like so many
00:12:35.140 democratic policies, especially in the economic realm, it seems on the surface compassionate and
00:12:42.340 like they're concerned about working Americans and so on. But when you stop to think about it
00:12:46.100 for just five seconds, you realize how bad it really is. So a couple of thoughts here on the
00:12:50.080 minimum wage since it's being discussed. Um, uh, I, I do support a minimum wage, but the minimum
00:12:58.560 wage that I support is zero. I think zero is the baseline. Zero should be the minimum wage. I
00:13:04.960 definitely don't think the minimum wage, it shouldn't go below that. Okay. So there shouldn't
00:13:08.600 be a negative, uh, nobody should be charged money to work. So I'll say that, but zero is the cutoff
00:13:16.300 zeros. The baseline should be the baseline wage for work because that's the baseline amount of effort
00:13:25.660 you can put in. Um, it's possible for someone to do zero work, which means that they have earned
00:13:32.140 zero dollars, do zero work at zero dollars. I think that makes a lot of sense, but when you skip
00:13:37.980 from zero and you go all the way up to say $8 an hour, minimum wage, $10 an hour, $15 an hour,
00:13:43.760 20, 25. I mean, there's, there's no limit to it. Once you do that, it doesn't really make any sense.
00:13:49.260 Um, because what you're, what you're suggesting is it's basically impossible for someone to do,
00:13:57.840 um, less than that amount of work in an hour. You're saying that if the minimum wage is $15 an
00:14:06.600 hour, you're saying that it's impossible that anyone in America could, um, do work for an hour
00:14:15.240 and the work they perform could be worth less than $15. You're saying that's impossible.
00:14:20.480 All the work that's being done across the country in any given hour, all of it is worth at least $15
00:14:26.400 an hour. I just, I don't think that's true. I give one example. We could all point out examples,
00:14:33.020 but just one example. Uh, I went to McDonald's the other day as I have the unfortunate habit of doing
00:14:38.600 on occasion and, uh, McDonald's now, most of McDonald's I go in now have those automated
00:14:43.580 things where you can order the touchscreen things, but I usually avoid those because
00:14:49.340 they're touchscreen. And so you can see the finger smudges on them. And it's, I don't want to touch
00:14:54.340 that thing. I mean, how often are those things washed? It looks like they're never washed. I
00:14:58.320 don't want to put my hand on a thing of a hundred other people have touched right before I'm about
00:15:02.380 to eat. It's gross. Um, when I can see their gross, greasy, disgusting hand marks on it. So then I,
00:15:08.640 I went to the, to the cashier and, um, so here's how that interaction work, that interaction went
00:15:15.380 verbatim. And as I said, we've all had interactions like this. So I walk up the cashier goes, can I
00:15:21.460 help you? Uh, yes, I'll have the large, uh, number one, please. Thank you. That it? Yes.
00:15:30.800 That's six 57. Oh, actually, sorry. Can you, can you change that to a medium?
00:15:41.380 Okay. And that's how it went. Um, now let me ask you somebody like that, someone who that's all they
00:15:52.080 do. That is the, they can't even be troubled to enunciate their words. Like they can barely even
00:15:57.920 put in the effort to speak. They are, these, they're barely sentient. They're, they're, you,
00:16:03.160 you're almost watching them melt in front of you into this just lump of matter. They, they're barely
00:16:09.740 even there. Um, because of how, because of just how dis, how utterly disinterested they are and, uh,
00:16:17.220 not only disinterested, but, but, but ticked off that you're there. You know, the kind of person where
00:16:21.640 you go into one of these places and they may, they're so unpleasant and so miserable that they make
00:16:26.760 you regret coming in. You are less likely to come back because of people like that. You, you, they,
00:16:33.700 they make you feel guilty for being there where you start to question yourself. You start saying,
00:16:37.760 Oh, geez, maybe I shouldn't, you start feeling bad. Like maybe I should have just gone and hunted
00:16:41.160 for deer or something for my lunch. I don't want to, I feel like I'm putting this person out or
00:16:45.280 something, but this is their job. This is what they do. They, they, they came in, they put on the
00:16:49.000 visor, they put on the name tag. This is all there. This is all they can do. This is what they're
00:16:52.700 getting paid to do. You might as well put a little effort in. They don't want to put any effort in.
00:16:56.760 So with someone like that, are they worth, are they worth 50 automatically worth is, is doing that
00:17:03.840 sighing, rolling your eyes. Is that automatically worth $15 an hour, especially when there's a
00:17:12.500 machine that can do exactly that without the attitude and speaking clearly. I mean,
00:17:18.300 how could it possibly be worth 50? It's not, it's not worth $8 an hour. Somebody like that.
00:17:24.040 Um, I guess the, the, the company, the restaurant, the store has some need for them. That's why
00:17:31.740 they're still there. So I, you know, they're, what are they worth 50 cents an hour at most 25 cents.
00:17:36.700 Um, they're worth very close to zero, maybe not zero, but very close to it. And so that they should
00:17:44.200 be paid. That's what they should be paid. People should be paid according to the work they do.
00:17:49.540 Now, on the other hand, you do have occasions and usually this happens in a Chick-fil-A as we all
00:17:57.260 know, but not always, I, there, there are times when you go to a fast food place and the cashier
00:18:04.160 is super nice and helpful and cheerful, and they've got a smile on their face and they, they,
00:18:09.580 you know, something screwed up or you have to make a change and they're, they're, they're just
00:18:12.860 very accommodating and welcoming and they make you feel good. They make you feel, they make you want
00:18:18.580 to order just more food just to, just to reward them. Um, uh, which they make you want to come
00:18:24.220 back. They just, they're, they're, they have, they're doing, they're putting in maximum effort,
00:18:30.120 right? I mean, you're, you're, you're punching things into a, to a, into a cash register. Uh,
00:18:36.340 the way that they make these things, it's like they're, they're, it's, they're just pictures of
00:18:40.200 the things that you don't even have to read. So someone like that, they, they know they could be
00:18:46.120 putting in almost no effort. Instead, they put in all of the possible effort they can into this job
00:18:51.540 because they're saying to themselves, look, this is what I'm doing. It's not what I want to do with
00:18:55.240 the rest of my life. Um, I don't particularly enjoy it. I wouldn't do it for free, but since
00:19:00.320 I'm doing it, since this is what I'm getting paid to do, I might as well do a good job. And so that's
00:19:04.300 what they do. Now, someone like that, uh, I think those are people who, I mean, they could be worth
00:19:09.920 $30 and they could be worth $50 an hour if they're that good at their job and they're, and they make
00:19:16.100 you as a customer want to come back, they're worth a lot of money to the company because they're,
00:19:22.300 they're making money for the company. So I think you get rid of the minimum wage and here's, here's
00:19:28.620 what the situation should be behind any fast food counter. It should be a situation where there are
00:19:36.200 people working back there who are making $35 an hour. And there are people who were making 35 cents
00:19:42.960 an hour. That's how wide the gap should be between wages, because that's how wide the gap in effort
00:19:50.640 is. And the wages should reflect that. So this isn't just about punishing the fast food employees
00:19:57.020 or the minimum wage employees who put in no effort. Um, it's not just about, about, and not even
00:20:02.900 punishing. It's, it's, it's not about simply, uh, encouraging them to do better, although that
00:20:08.700 is part of it, but it's also about rewarding those who are worth a lot more than $8 an hour or $15
00:20:18.020 an hour or $20 an hour. When you have a minimum wage, what ends up happening is because the, the
00:20:24.780 company, the, the, the, the restaurant, you know, they, they've got these employees who are worth
00:20:30.320 almost nothing. They have to pay them though, eight, 10, $50 an hour, which means they've got to take
00:20:36.140 that potential income away from the employees who could be worth more. You get rid of the minimum
00:20:41.480 wage. And now, yeah, there are going to be people who lose out and deserve to lose out because they're,
00:20:47.400 they're just lumps of, of, of matter sitting there. But, um, then those who are worth more,
00:20:56.480 now you've freed up that capital and, uh, and they can be paid what they're worth. So I think it,
00:21:00.540 and it's then if you, if you work at a Burger King or something and there's no minimum wage and you
00:21:07.840 find that all of a sudden you're getting paid $2 an hour because you're just a miserable
00:21:12.820 employee who puts in no effort and makes everyone around you feel terrible just for being there.
00:21:18.380 Well, then you could look at your, at your coworkers who are making so much more and you could say,
00:21:21.800 oh, I want it. That's what I want. Well, it's very simple to get there. All you have to do is put in
00:21:27.320 the effort. All right. Um, what else do we have here? This is an incredible story. I wanted to
00:21:36.220 mention from, um, NBC, los angeles.com. Let me just read a little bit of this.
00:21:43.140 It says small business owners in San Diego County are sounding an alarm over thousands of dollars in
00:21:48.580 losses to shoplifters. The problem is that these shoplifters don't appear to be facing any
00:21:52.860 consequences. A seven 11 franchise owner told NBC seven, um, that every single day shoplifters
00:22:00.500 come in and take what they want. If they can keep it under a certain amount, the owner hopes the
00:22:05.180 city will step in to do something. Uh, the reason why this is happening under prop 47, which passed
00:22:11.220 in 2014, anything stolen below a $950 value keeps the crime at a misdemeanor, which means that,
00:22:20.220 uh, and, and people aren't getting arrested for the misdemeanor. So under this, under this prop 47
00:22:26.120 California, what that means is that people, you know, if you, if you steal under $950 worth of
00:22:32.380 worth of stuff, that's a misdemeanor and you're just going to get a citation, which means people
00:22:37.720 are just strolling into seven 11s and other convenience stores in California and taking whatever
00:22:44.000 they want. In fact, what, what brought this to my attention attention is that there's a video,
00:22:48.400 which I can't play because there's so much vulgarity in it that I'd have to bleep it out.
00:22:52.760 You wouldn't understand what was even being said, but, um, somebody took a video. I think it's from a
00:22:57.700 seven 11 where this guy, this, this punk strolls in and just take something and leaves and no one
00:23:08.320 stops him because they can't. The most the police can do is just, Oh, you shouldn't have done that
00:23:13.900 and issue a citation. That's it. This is, this is crazy. And it shows again, you have these policies
00:23:24.560 that are supposed to be compassionate and, Oh, you know, we're, we're, we're trying to prevent,
00:23:30.600 we don't want to lock people in jail for nonviolent crimes, but these supposedly compassionate
00:23:35.880 policies, look what they're doing. Where is the compassion for the business owners who are now
00:23:41.260 losing merchandise and are living in fear because they know that anyone can walk in and take their
00:23:47.160 stuff at any time. It's, it's outrageous. All right. Um, speaking of outrageous, I'm moving along
00:23:55.100 here kind of quickly. Uh, mostly because there, there are some, some great emails I wanted to get to
00:24:01.240 on a Friday. One other thing, a bunch of new trailers came out yesterday for some reason. And, uh,
00:24:09.380 one that a lot of people have been talking about is the trailer for the new Top Gun movie with Tom
00:24:15.620 Cruz comes back and reprises his role. And now I have to admit, I have to confess that I have never
00:24:23.860 seen Top Gun. I don't even know what Top Gun is about. I, I, I, I gather that he flies a plane.
00:24:31.160 I don't know what, to what end. I mean, what's the central, it, does he fight aliens? Is it an
00:24:37.300 alien thing? If so, I'll watch it, but I get the impression that there's no aliens and, and it's not
00:24:43.020 even, he's a fighter jet, but is he fighting anybody? Does he, is there, are there, does that
00:24:48.380 even have, I, from the little brief glimpses of Top Gun I've seen, I just don't understand the
00:24:53.300 point of, I've never seen it. I have no interest. Um, but that's coming out. There's also something
00:24:59.260 else. Um, the film version of the musical cats is coming out and this trailer was released. It
00:25:09.420 honestly is. And I've got to give a, a parental warning here because a warning for everybody
00:25:14.080 trigger warning that this, this looks like the most disturbing, terrifying film unintentionally,
00:25:24.460 but potentially the most disturbing and terrifying film that has ever been made. I thought that the
00:25:28.980 Exorcist was the scariest movie of all time until I saw this trailer, watch this.
00:25:33.140 I haven't seen you before, have I?
00:26:00.140 God, we're about to begin, you know.
00:26:23.140 God, we're about to begin, you know.
00:26:27.180 Nooooo!
00:26:30.480 Here we go! Hop-hop!
00:26:57.180 Touch me, it's so easy to leave me
00:27:04.180 I'm alone with the memory of my days in the sun
00:27:14.180 If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is
00:27:22.180 Look, a new day has begun
00:27:31.180 Are you going to try for a different life?
00:27:35.180 A new day has begun
00:27:43.180 See, that's horrific, isn't it?
00:27:51.180 I mean, what is that?
00:27:52.180 It does, first of all, look like Furries the Musical
00:27:56.180 It looks like a musical, that's what it looks like
00:27:58.180 But also, what is this?
00:28:00.180 Is it a joke?
00:28:02.180 I mean, who would watch that?
00:28:05.180 Completely terrifying
00:28:08.180 I mean, it disturbs me down to my core
00:28:13.180 I can't even describe it
00:28:16.180 Who could like cats enough
00:28:19.180 I mean, cats the animals
00:28:21.180 To watch that
00:28:24.180 Really, really awful stuff
00:28:27.180 But I figured I had to endure that
00:28:29.180 So, therefore, I'm going to make you endure it as well
00:28:31.180 Alright, let's go to emails
00:28:32.180 MattWalshShow at gmail.com
00:28:34.180 MattWalshShow at gmail.com
00:28:35.180 This is from Jonathan
00:28:37.180 Says, Dear Mr. Walsh
00:28:38.180 I know this is kind of late
00:28:39.180 I've been falling behind on yours and Mr. Shapiro's videos
00:28:43.180 How dare you, Jonathan?
00:28:45.180 Get your act together, okay?
00:28:46.180 What are you doing with your life?
00:28:48.180 However, this is about the whole Ariel casting controversy
00:28:51.180 I wanted to know if you ever thought
00:28:53.180 That some people like me are upset
00:28:54.180 Not because we are racist
00:28:55.180 But because it is portraying a character
00:28:57.180 That we already have a physical image of
00:28:58.180 And what we grew up seeing
00:29:00.180 I personally don't like it
00:29:01.180 When Hollywood changes the images
00:29:02.180 Of the typical character on any film
00:29:04.180 Such as Spider-Man changing three times
00:29:06.180 I also wanted to mention that
00:29:08.180 I am not white
00:29:09.180 So, by the leftist logic
00:29:10.180 I cannot be considered a racist
00:29:12.180 For not liking the fact
00:29:13.180 That they casted a black actor
00:29:15.180 I grew up with Ariel being white
00:29:17.180 And now they want to change it
00:29:18.180 For political correction
00:29:19.180 I personally like to see characters portrayed
00:29:21.180 As they are when it's first imaged
00:29:23.180 That's all
00:29:24.180 Thank you for your time and Godspeed
00:29:25.180 Yeah, I mean there's a perfectly
00:29:27.180 Of course it doesn't matter that much
00:29:28.180 As I'm sure you would agree
00:29:30.180 But there's a perfectly reasonable
00:29:33.180 Justification
00:29:35.180 For being not a huge fan of the fact
00:29:37.180 That they changed Ariel to
00:29:39.180 In fact, I've heard
00:29:41.180 One thing I've heard
00:29:42.180 As we talked about this
00:29:43.180 Whatever it was last week
00:29:44.180 Two weeks ago
00:29:46.180 I heard from several women
00:29:48.180 Who said that they have red hair
00:29:50.180 And so, Ariel was the only
00:29:52.180 Disney princess with red hair
00:29:55.180 And as little girls
00:29:56.180 You know, that meant something to them
00:29:57.180 So they liked the fact that the princess
00:29:58.180 Looked a little bit like them
00:29:59.180 Had red hair
00:30:01.180 And so, yeah, they don't like the fact that
00:30:02.180 They changed her for that reason
00:30:04.180 Which, yeah, I can understand that
00:30:06.180 It's kind of like
00:30:08.180 Yeah, they're fictional characters
00:30:09.180 So it doesn't matter
00:30:11.180 They can look like anything
00:30:12.180 But it's sort of like
00:30:15.180 When you've got a long-running show
00:30:17.180 And one of the actors bails
00:30:19.180 Or is fired or whatever quits
00:30:21.180 And so they bring in a different actor
00:30:22.180 To play that same role
00:30:24.180 Which you don't find happening
00:30:25.180 That often these days
00:30:26.180 But I think it used to happen more often
00:30:28.180 The one example that pops to mind
00:30:30.180 The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
00:30:32.180 Which, of course, is a great show
00:30:33.180 I loved that show growing up
00:30:35.180 But Aunt Viv
00:30:37.180 They changed midway through
00:30:38.180 They changed actors
00:30:39.180 And brought in a totally different woman
00:30:41.180 To play the same person
00:30:44.180 And, yeah, that throws you for
00:30:45.180 I wasn't a fan of that
00:30:46.180 It throws you for a loop
00:30:47.180 Even though it's a fictional character
00:30:48.180 It's still like
00:30:49.180 This is a different person
00:30:50.180 It doesn't look like the other person
00:30:51.180 How am I?
00:30:52.180 You've broken the fourth wall
00:30:54.180 You've now made me remember
00:30:56.180 That I'm just watching some fake thing
00:31:00.180 And that's not good
00:31:01.180 It takes away enjoyment
00:31:02.180 So, yeah, I can understand
00:31:03.180 I can understand that
00:31:04.180 Generally, if you're going to do
00:31:05.180 The live adaptation of a cartoon
00:31:07.180 It makes sense that you're looking for
00:31:08.180 Someone who looks sort of like the cartoon
00:31:11.180 Just to keep that continuity going, right?
00:31:16.180 This is from
00:31:18.180 Who is this from?
00:31:19.180 I don't think I got a name
00:31:20.180 I forgot to write the name down
00:31:22.180 It says
00:31:24.180 I am dating myself as a listener of yours
00:31:26.180 But I remember on a post you made
00:31:27.180 Back on the Matt Walsh blog
00:31:29.180 Entitled
00:31:30.180 I wasn't ready for marriage
00:31:31.180 And how you met your wife on eHarmony
00:31:33.180 I'm a 26-year-old grad student
00:31:34.180 Who is also looking and coaching
00:31:36.180 And working and coaching
00:31:37.180 And I'm having a hard time
00:31:38.180 Meeting nice young available men
00:31:40.180 I've been very hesitant
00:31:41.180 In trying online dating
00:31:42.180 As I can never figure out
00:31:43.180 How to answer
00:31:44.180 Tell me about yourself questions
00:31:45.180 I also have a hard time
00:31:46.180 Believing that an authentic friendship
00:31:47.180 Could build with someone
00:31:49.180 You met online
00:31:50.180 Due to a common interest
00:31:51.180 Like biking
00:31:52.180 Or the Green Bay Packers
00:31:53.180 I signed up for Catholic Match
00:31:56.180 Now I have an inbox
00:31:57.180 Full of messages
00:31:58.180 From guys in my area
00:31:59.180 That are all basically asking me
00:32:00.180 Hey, it's cool that you like blank
00:32:01.180 Tell me more about yourself
00:32:03.180 And I'm feeling pretty hopeless
00:32:05.180 How were you able to find
00:32:07.180 Someone you really clicked with
00:32:08.180 And eventually married
00:32:09.180 On a dating site
00:32:10.180 How can online dating
00:32:11.180 Not be basically self-marketing
00:32:13.180 Also, maybe could you ask Ben
00:32:15.180 To make a Daily Wire dating site
00:32:17.180 For its listeners
00:32:18.180 I just love these shows
00:32:19.180 And I'm sure a bunch of us
00:32:20.180 Like-minded Daily Wire-ians
00:32:22.180 Could pair up and breed
00:32:24.180 A formidable conservative army
00:32:25.180 I like that idea
00:32:26.180 So we're breeding
00:32:27.180 Forget about conservative army
00:32:28.180 I don't care about that
00:32:29.180 We're breeding new listeners
00:32:31.180 So that we can dominate
00:32:33.180 For decades
00:32:34.180 So we're just going to keep
00:32:35.180 So that's a good idea
00:32:36.180 Maybe I'll talk to Ben about that
00:32:37.180 As far as the dating sites
00:32:39.180 Well, first of all
00:32:40.180 I would say
00:32:41.180 The messages you're getting
00:32:42.180 From guys on Catholic Match
00:32:43.180 Do seem kind of boring and bland
00:32:46.180 It could be worse though
00:32:47.180 From what I've heard from women
00:32:48.180 If you were on some other sites
00:32:51.180 The messages
00:32:52.180 Your inbox may be filled with
00:32:54.180 Other sorts of things
00:32:56.180 So maybe I would look
00:32:57.180 At the bright side there
00:32:59.180 Yeah, it does
00:33:02.180 Look, I'm a big believer in online dating
00:33:06.180 That is how I met my wife
00:33:08.180 I think it's
00:33:09.180 This was eight years ago
00:33:11.180 The scene has changed quite a bit
00:33:13.180 With online dating
00:33:14.180 Evolved or maybe devolved
00:33:16.180 So on one hand
00:33:17.180 I can't speak to it that much
00:33:19.180 Because I just haven't seen it
00:33:20.180 I haven't been in it for so long
00:33:23.180 But I do think that this is just how
00:33:27.180 In fact, I saw a chart
00:33:29.180 I wish I had the chart in front of me
00:33:30.180 I saw a chart
00:33:34.180 Recently
00:33:36.180 That was charting
00:33:37.180 Going back to like the 50s
00:33:40.180 Charting how people met their spouses
00:33:43.180 And there's all these different options
00:33:44.180 Like met them at work
00:33:45.180 You met them through connections with family
00:33:47.180 You met them in high school or in school
00:33:51.180 Or you met them online
00:33:52.180 And of course back in the 50s
00:33:53.180 Nobody was meeting online
00:33:54.180 Because that didn't exist
00:33:55.180 But what you find is that
00:33:57.180 The internet comes onto the scene in the mid 90s
00:34:00.180 And then people meeting their spouses online
00:34:02.180 Is just shot through the roof
00:34:03.180 Where now it's one of the most common ways
00:34:05.180 For people to meet
00:34:06.180 It's just, it's incredible
00:34:07.180 How this thing has changed
00:34:09.180 This fundamental aspect of human existence
00:34:11.180 How we meet our mates, right?
00:34:14.180 And I do think that it's
00:34:16.180 When you think of all the potential ways
00:34:18.180 To meet someone
00:34:19.180 And when I was dating
00:34:21.180 Before I was married
00:34:22.180 I met people through work
00:34:23.180 I met people through school
00:34:24.180 Just like anybody else
00:34:26.180 But I think online dating provides you
00:34:30.180 At least for me
00:34:31.180 Here was the thing for me
00:34:33.180 I got to a point where
00:34:37.180 I wasn't looking to just date anymore
00:34:39.180 Just for the sake of dating
00:34:41.180 I was looking to
00:34:43.180 I was looking to get married
00:34:44.180 I was looking to move on
00:34:45.180 To that next stage of my life
00:34:46.180 I wasn't just going to marry
00:34:48.180 The first person I came across
00:34:49.180 But I was looking
00:34:50.180 I wanted to get into a relationship
00:34:52.180 Where that is the end goal
00:34:53.180 Where we're kind of both trying this out
00:34:55.180 To see if we want to get married
00:34:57.180 And where we have that
00:34:58.180 Where we both have that end goal in mind
00:35:01.180 We're both serious mature adults
00:35:03.180 And that's where we want to head
00:35:05.180 If it works out
00:35:07.180 That's what I was looking for
00:35:09.180 And I found that
00:35:11.180 If you find the right online dating site
00:35:13.180 It works for that
00:35:14.180 And so for me
00:35:16.180 When I met my wife
00:35:20.180 We
00:35:21.180 You know, I knew within like a week
00:35:24.180 That I'd probably
00:35:25.180 That we're going to get married
00:35:27.180 Because I think that
00:35:28.180 When you meet someone
00:35:29.180 You kind of know
00:35:30.180 And when you
00:35:31.180 When you click like that
00:35:32.180 At least for me
00:35:33.180 I think you figure it out pretty quickly
00:35:34.180 Just like
00:35:35.180 If you think of all the failed relationships
00:35:36.180 You've been in
00:35:37.180 Even if you dated someone for years
00:35:38.180 And it ended up not working out
00:35:39.180 If you think back
00:35:40.180 You probably knew really soon
00:35:42.180 That it
00:35:43.180 That this probably wasn't going to go anywhere
00:35:44.180 Even if you stuck with it for a while
00:35:46.180 For me, the way that I
00:35:47.180 Cut through all the noise
00:35:48.180 Is that I was just with my wife
00:35:50.180 And she was the same with me
00:35:51.180 When I met her
00:35:52.180 We were very upfront with each other
00:35:54.180 We
00:35:55.180 We didn't waste a lot of time with small talk
00:35:57.180 We got
00:35:58.180 We kind of got down to talking about
00:35:59.180 The serious things
00:36:00.180 What our goals are
00:36:01.180 We were very upfront
00:36:02.180 We were both upfront about
00:36:03.180 Our end goals
00:36:04.180 We were looking for someone
00:36:05.180 We're looking for
00:36:06.180 For marriage
00:36:07.180 For a serious relationship
00:36:08.180 We were open about that
00:36:09.180 With each other
00:36:10.180 I don't know
00:36:11.180 On our
00:36:12.180 They say on first dates
00:36:13.180 You're not supposed to talk about
00:36:14.180 Politics or religion
00:36:15.180 That's pretty much the only thing
00:36:16.180 We talked about
00:36:17.180 We talked about things like that
00:36:18.180 And the fact that
00:36:20.180 We
00:36:22.180 We lined up so much there
00:36:23.180 But also that she
00:36:24.180 Wanted to talk about those things
00:36:26.180 That for me
00:36:27.180 Told me
00:36:28.180 Okay, well this is
00:36:29.180 This is the person
00:36:30.180 So I don't know if that helps you at all
00:36:31.180 But
00:36:32.180 That was my own experience
00:36:33.180 All right
00:36:34.180 This is from Nicholas
00:36:35.180 Says, hi Matt
00:36:36.180 What are your thoughts
00:36:37.180 On Kant's critique
00:36:38.180 Of the ontological argument
00:36:39.180 For God's existence
00:36:40.180 The ontological argument
00:36:41.180 Claims that
00:36:42.180 If it is possible
00:36:43.180 That God exists
00:36:44.180 In any possible world
00:36:45.180 That he exists
00:36:46.180 In all possible worlds
00:36:47.180 Kant's criticism of this argument
00:36:48.180 Is that it falsely treats existence
00:36:49.180 As a predicate
00:36:50.180 And that it therefore
00:36:51.180 Does not follow
00:36:52.180 From his possible existence
00:36:53.180 In any possible world
00:36:54.180 That God exists
00:36:55.180 In all possible worlds
00:36:56.180 Do you agree or disagree
00:36:57.180 With this critique?
00:36:58.180 I think I've talked about
00:36:59.180 The ontological argument before
00:37:00.180 I do
00:37:01.180 I agree with the critique
00:37:02.180 I think that the ontological argument
00:37:03.180 Is absurd
00:37:04.180 I think it's
00:37:05.180 A lot of brilliant men
00:37:07.180 Have advanced this argument
00:37:10.180 It was originally formulated
00:37:11.180 By Saint Anselm
00:37:12.180 Who was clearly a brilliant man
00:37:14.180 But I think that it's not
00:37:16.180 A brilliant argument
00:37:17.180 It is absurd
00:37:18.180 It's absurdly weak
00:37:20.180 Because it seems to try
00:37:22.180 And conjure God
00:37:23.180 Into existence
00:37:24.180 Through word games
00:37:25.180 That's what it seems like
00:37:26.180 It seems like a word game
00:37:27.180 That's how it strikes me
00:37:29.180 Where you say
00:37:30.180 To someone
00:37:31.180 Okay, imagine
00:37:32.180 The greatest possible being
00:37:33.180 And they say
00:37:34.180 Okay, I'm imagining it
00:37:36.180 And you say
00:37:37.180 Well, that being
00:37:38.180 Must exist
00:37:39.180 Why is that?
00:37:40.180 Because it's greater to exist
00:37:42.180 Than not exist
00:37:43.180 Yeah, but that doesn't make any sense
00:37:45.180 Well, you said you imagined
00:37:47.180 The greatest possible being
00:37:48.180 Didn't you?
00:37:49.180 Yeah
00:37:50.180 Well, then he has to exist
00:37:51.180 Otherwise, you didn't imagine
00:37:52.180 The greatest possible being
00:37:53.180 But you did imagine
00:37:54.180 The greatest possible being
00:37:55.180 So then he exists
00:37:56.180 That's how the ontological argument works
00:37:58.180 It's one of those arguments
00:38:00.180 Those arguments
00:38:01.180 It's almost hard to rebut
00:38:02.180 Because it's so bad
00:38:03.180 Because you don't even know
00:38:04.180 Where to begin
00:38:05.180 When you're trying to figure
00:38:07.180 It's so self-evidently wrong
00:38:09.180 That you almost don't
00:38:11.180 It's like if someone asked you
00:38:12.180 To define the word the
00:38:14.180 It would take you a second
00:38:15.180 It was like, well, how was I going to define it?
00:38:17.180 You're just
00:38:18.180 It's so obvious
00:38:19.180 That it's hard for a minute
00:38:20.180 To break down
00:38:22.180 My favorite response to this argument
00:38:25.180 Is the earliest one
00:38:26.180 When St. Anselm first developed it
00:38:28.180 A monk, I forget his name
00:38:29.180 But a contemporary
00:38:31.180 Pointed out that you could use this argument
00:38:33.180 To prove the existence of literally anything
00:38:35.180 And the example he gave is
00:38:36.180 The greatest possible island
00:38:37.180 He said, well, you can imagine
00:38:39.180 The greatest possible
00:38:40.180 You can imagine what would constitute
00:38:42.180 The greatest possible island
00:38:44.180 And by this argument's logic
00:38:46.180 That would mean that that island
00:38:48.180 Must logically exist
00:38:49.180 Because you imagined it
00:38:50.180 And that's just not how it worked
00:38:51.180 I think maybe a more modern example would be
00:38:54.180 And one of the problems with that
00:38:56.180 Rebuttal is that
00:38:57.180 Well, an island is not a being
00:38:59.180 It's not a person
00:39:00.180 And so what constitutes being
00:39:03.180 The greatest island
00:39:04.180 Is very different from the sorts of things
00:39:06.180 That would require you to be
00:39:08.180 The greatest possible being or person
00:39:10.180 So let's use an example
00:39:13.180 That I think relates more
00:39:15.180 Imagine what
00:39:18.180 Imagine what
00:39:19.180 Imagine the greatest possible basketball player
00:39:22.180 Greatest possible basketball
00:39:24.180 Greatest possible basketball player
00:39:25.180 We can all kind of
00:39:26.180 He's nine feet tall
00:39:28.180 He can jump across the entire court
00:39:30.180 He can hit any shot from any distance
00:39:32.180 He's faster than the speed of light
00:39:34.180 I mean, he's basically Superman
00:39:35.180 Except for the nine feet tall bit
00:39:37.180 That's the greatest possible basketball player
00:39:39.180 Well, by the ontological argument
00:39:42.180 If you have imagined that basketball player
00:39:45.180 He must exist
00:39:46.180 Because it is greater to exist than not exist
00:39:49.180 And therefore, if he's the greatest possible basketball player
00:39:52.180 Then he has to exist
00:39:54.180 But so it doesn't make any sense
00:39:56.180 That basketball player doesn't exist
00:39:57.180 He's imaginary
00:39:58.180 So you might say
00:40:03.180 So if
00:40:04.180 Now, as you mentioned
00:40:06.180 This argument treats existence
00:40:09.180 As an attribute
00:40:11.180 As a personality
00:40:12.180 Or a characteristic
00:40:14.180 Almost
00:40:16.180 Where you say
00:40:17.180 Well, the greatest possible being
00:40:18.180 Has to be all loving
00:40:19.180 All knowing
00:40:20.180 All powerful
00:40:21.180 And he also has to have the trait of existence
00:40:24.180 Well, that's not really what existence is
00:40:26.180 Existence is not a trait
00:40:27.180 It's not a quality
00:40:28.180 Existence just is
00:40:31.180 Existence is to be
00:40:33.180 That's what existence is
00:40:34.180 So to say that greatness
00:40:37.180 Or I'm sorry
00:40:38.180 To say that existence
00:40:39.180 Is a quality
00:40:41.180 That falls under the umbrella of greatness
00:40:44.180 That to me
00:40:45.180 Doesn't make any logical sense
00:40:47.180 And besides
00:40:48.180 Who says that it's greater to exist than not exist?
00:40:51.180 I don't know
00:40:52.180 I mean, maybe it's greater not to exist
00:40:53.180 I don't know
00:40:54.180 Superman is pretty powerful
00:40:57.180 Because he doesn't exist
00:40:59.180 He can be whatever you want him to be
00:41:02.180 So it doesn't make any sense
00:41:04.180 Now, maybe
00:41:05.180 So if you're saying that
00:41:08.180 Existence
00:41:13.180 Is a necessary contingent
00:41:15.180 For something being
00:41:16.180 The greatest possible being
00:41:18.180 Then maybe that means
00:41:19.180 Maybe that simply just means
00:41:20.180 It's not possible to imagine
00:41:21.180 The greatest possible being
00:41:22.180 That's all that means
00:41:24.180 That's all you've really proven
00:41:25.180 Is that you
00:41:26.180 Well, you can't actually imagine
00:41:27.180 The greatest possible being
00:41:28.180 And in fact
00:41:29.180 That's true of God
00:41:30.180 We can't
00:41:31.180 When you say imagine
00:41:32.180 The greatest possible being
00:41:33.180 You can't really imagine God
00:41:35.180 You don't really know what that means
00:41:36.180 We can say God's all-powerful
00:41:38.180 God's all-knowing
00:41:39.180 But we can't really comprehend that
00:41:41.180 Or imagine it
00:41:42.180 Or understand what it means
00:41:44.180 So there's a problem there too
00:41:46.180 The only thing I will say
00:41:48.180 About the ontological argument
00:41:50.180 In its favor, I suppose
00:41:52.180 Sort of
00:41:53.180 Is that
00:41:55.180 It is an argument that tries to establish
00:41:58.180 The logical necessity of God
00:42:00.180 And in theory
00:42:01.180 I
00:42:03.180 Understand
00:42:07.180 The
00:42:10.180 Attraction
00:42:12.180 To that kind of argument
00:42:15.180 So I think that that's a good sort of argument to make
00:42:18.180 A logical necessity argument
00:42:20.180 I just think that this is the wrong one
00:42:22.180 This doesn't do it
00:42:24.180 But the attraction to a logical necessity argument
00:42:27.180 Is that
00:42:28.180 It's much stronger
00:42:29.180 If you can successfully
00:42:32.180 Make an argument
00:42:33.180 That God is logically necessary
00:42:35.180 Then you have proven he exists
00:42:37.180 Because he is logically necessary
00:42:39.180 As opposed to most of the arguments for God
00:42:41.180 That you hear
00:42:42.180 Especially from most apologists out there
00:42:43.180 Like William Lane Craig
00:42:44.180 Or any of those guys
00:42:46.180 If you watch one of their debates
00:42:48.180 They're not making arguments from logical necessity
00:42:50.180 They're making arguments
00:42:52.180 They're making evidentiary arguments
00:42:54.180 They're making arguments
00:42:55.180 They're saying okay
00:42:56.180 Well here's all the evidence
00:42:57.180 And I think that that leads to the conclusion that God exists
00:43:02.180 But it's
00:43:04.180 Because it's not logically necessary by those arguments
00:43:07.180 You are allowing the possibility that maybe he doesn't
00:43:10.180 So what you're really saying is
00:43:12.180 When you point to the fine tuning argument
00:43:14.180 Or the argument from the first cause
00:43:16.180 Or any other argument
00:43:17.180 What you're saying is
00:43:18.180 Based on these facts
00:43:20.180 It is more likely than not
00:43:22.180 That God exists
00:43:23.180 Or it is most plausible
00:43:25.180 That God exists
00:43:27.180 Which I think is still a good argument
00:43:29.180 But I think the reason some people are uncomfortable with it
00:43:32.180 Is that it's well
00:43:33.180 More likely than not
00:43:34.180 Still leaves the knot
00:43:36.180 Because you can't really point to fine tuning
00:43:37.180 And say I have proven based on this
00:43:41.180 100% God exists
00:43:43.180 Because you haven't
00:43:45.180 Someone could come up with
00:43:47.180 A thousand different potential scenarios
00:43:49.180 They may not be plausible scenarios
00:43:50.180 They may not be true
00:43:51.180 They may not be likely
00:43:52.180 But you could come up with scenarios
00:43:53.180 To explain the fine tuning
00:43:54.180 That don't involve God
00:43:56.180 And so I think with the logical necessity argument
00:43:58.180 You're trying to cut all that out
00:43:59.180 And say forget about that
00:44:01.180 Let me make this logical
00:44:02.180 So logical necessity is like
00:44:03.180 If I were to say that
00:44:07.180 Every square in the world has four sides
00:44:11.180 That is a statement of logical necessity
00:44:14.180 It's not evidentiary
00:44:16.180 It's just by definition
00:44:18.180 Every square must have four sides
00:44:20.180 Otherwise it's not a square
00:44:21.180 And so I'm right
00:44:22.180 I have proven it
00:44:23.180 I've proven my point just by saying it
00:44:25.180 That's what the ontological argument
00:44:27.180 Is trying to do
00:44:29.180 I respect the effort
00:44:31.180 And I like the idea
00:44:32.180 Of making logical arguments
00:44:33.180 For God's existence
00:44:35.180 I just don't
00:44:36.180 As I said
00:44:37.180 I don't think that does it
00:44:38.180 That's not it
00:44:39.180 That ain't it
00:44:40.180 Chief
00:44:41.180 As the kids would say
00:44:42.180 All right
00:44:44.180 We will
00:44:46.180 Leave it there
00:44:47.180 Have a great weekend everybody
00:44:48.180 Godspeed
