The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 736 - Saving Abuela And Changing The World

00:00:00.040 Today on the Matt Wall Show, I raised $100,000 for AOC's grandmother and the money was turned down.

00:00:06.140 As you can imagine, I have some thoughts to share about that. We'll do that today.

00:00:09.000 Also, five headlines including BLM riots over their latest martyr, again in Minneapolis this time.

00:00:14.520 This one was a violent felon and fugitive who shot at the cops and then died in the process.

00:00:20.080 And yet, we're rioting over him.

00:00:21.420 Also, a prominent psychiatrist confesses her fantasies of murdering white people.

00:00:26.220 And she's a psychiatrist. And a feud between rival beekeepers has erupted on TikTok.

00:00:31.140 And you know I have to talk about that. Plus, our daily cancellation and much more today on the Matt Wall Show.

00:00:44.940 Out of all the headlines to come out of the events of this past weekend, this is surely my favorite.

00:00:49.560 From The Independent, it reads,

00:00:51.600 Right-wing blogger launches GoFundMe for AOC's Puerto Rico grandmother.

00:00:56.220 In Latest Personal Attack.

00:00:58.860 Actually, let me correct myself. That's not my favorite headline of the weekend.

00:01:01.840 It's my favorite headline possibly of all time.

00:01:04.560 And I feel that way even though it misgenders me as a blogger.

00:01:07.680 Which I'm not, by the way.

00:01:09.500 Not anymore.

00:01:10.600 Now, those who missed the show on Friday and made the good and healthy decision to avoid the internet over the weekend

00:01:16.700 are no doubt extremely confused right now.

00:01:19.340 So let me back up and explain this story from the beginning.

00:01:23.160 And then I'll talk about the lessons that we can learn now that the saga has reached its dramatic conclusion.

00:01:27.360 So it began last week when Congresswoman Alexandria Queza-Cortez tweeted out photographs of her grandmother's dilapidated home in Puerto Rico.

00:01:35.640 Well, it was allegedly her grandmother's dilapidated home in Puerto Rico.

00:01:39.600 She explained that her dear abuela has been living in this squalor with a collapsing ceiling and buckets all over the floor

00:01:45.720 to catch the rainwater ever since Hurricane Maria a few years ago.

00:01:49.620 She explained that, of course, it's Trump's fault that nobody has bothered to fix abuela's ceiling in the past four years.

00:01:55.900 Now, I responded to her tweet reminding her that she's a wealthy and famous politician 0.62

00:01:59.220 and that maybe she should take care of her own family members using the funds that she has personally available to her 0.54

00:02:05.820 as a wealthy and famous politician.

00:02:08.360 She responded to me.

00:02:10.080 She clapped back, as the left-wing blogs put it,

00:02:13.720 saying that she's worried about not just her grandmother,

00:02:17.600 but the systemic injustices in Puerto Rico and society in general.

00:02:23.320 And she accused me of being unconcerned,

00:02:26.780 indeed totally fine with systemic injustices myself.

00:02:31.420 She did not, however, promise that she would personally pay to fix her grandmother's ceiling.

00:02:36.500 That was a noticeable omission in her response.

00:02:39.880 So, a day later, I launched a GoFundMe campaign to repair and save abuela's home.

00:02:46.080 So, if AOC is not going to help her family members and is going to wait around for the government to fix the problem,

00:02:52.000 then I felt it had fallen to me to do what AOC would not or could not do.

00:02:57.980 I'm not judging her, though.

00:02:59.160 I just want to be clear.

00:02:59.840 She did just buy a new Tesla, and those monthly payments can be pretty steep.

00:03:03.420 She also has two apartments, and she's making payments on those.

00:03:06.000 So, she's got money tied up and all that. 1.00

00:03:07.520 And so, you know, I should probably explain that to abuela and said,

00:03:12.000 listen, granny, I'm sorry. 0.80

00:03:13.440 I got the two apartments.

00:03:14.540 I got the Tesla.

00:03:16.460 You know, you've got buckets, right, for the rainwater.

00:03:19.020 You'll be fine.

00:03:19.560 Just make sure you change those things out every couple days.

00:03:23.460 Now, right after starting the campaign,

00:03:25.220 I, of course, reached out to AOC personally, both on Twitter and through email,

00:03:29.160 to try and coordinate with her to make sure that the funds made it to her abuela.

00:03:32.640 Abuela, she didn't respond to my messages.

00:03:35.100 Indeed, she never publicly or privately acknowledged the fundraiser at all.

00:03:38.320 Least of all, did she thank me for it?

00:03:40.440 I can't say I was surprised by that, but I also can't say that my feelings weren't hurt.

00:03:44.160 I'm a very sensitive and emotional guy, as you know, and that cut me pretty deep.

00:03:49.700 And yet, the fundraiser marched on.

00:03:52.080 I wasn't doing this for personal accolades.

00:03:55.340 I was only partially doing it for personal accolades.

00:03:58.420 Mainly, it was about saving Abuela's home,

00:04:00.440 and we made stunning progress in that regard in the space of just a few hours.

00:04:04.840 Many prominent people in right-wing media,

00:04:06.660 including all of the hosts here at The Daily Wire,

00:04:08.960 as well as Stephen Crowder and Dave Rubin and others,

00:04:11.260 all joined the effort.

00:04:12.400 And in the space of 10 hours,

00:04:15.360 get this,

00:04:16.880 we raised $100,000

00:04:18.940 in 10 hours.

00:04:21.860 Now, think about that.

00:04:23.960 $100,000 in 10 hours.

00:04:25.400 AOC couldn't, apparently,

00:04:29.040 raise any money for her Abuela in four years.

00:04:32.460 We raised $100,000

00:04:34.000 in an afternoon

00:04:35.800 on a Friday.

00:04:38.580 It was inspiring.

00:04:39.980 It was tremendous.

00:04:41.960 We were arguably

00:04:43.040 the most successful

00:04:45.000 charity troll campaign of all time.

00:04:47.920 It also might have been the only

00:04:49.360 charity troll campaign of all time.

00:04:51.100 But then things took a turn.

00:04:52.740 Around 10 o'clock on Friday night,

00:04:54.160 I had just gotten back

00:04:57.420 from dinner with my wife,

00:04:59.200 and I went to check

00:04:59.880 the GoFundMe page,

00:05:01.520 only to find that the donations

00:05:02.660 had been turned off.

00:05:04.400 Now, it said on the page,

00:05:05.560 and this is what confused me,

00:05:07.620 it said that donations had been paused,

00:05:09.360 quote,

00:05:09.660 by the organizer.

00:05:11.900 But I thought I was the organizer,

00:05:13.880 and I didn't pause them.

00:05:15.140 So that seems sort of strange.

00:05:16.660 Then a short time later,

00:05:17.480 I received this email

00:05:18.600 from the GoFundMe

00:05:19.540 trust and safety team.

00:05:20.660 This is what I read.

00:05:21.360 This is what it said.

00:05:22.180 I'll read it to you.

00:05:22.780 It said,

00:05:24.640 and pay close attention

00:05:26.720 to the language they use here.

00:05:29.040 Dear Matt,

00:05:30.280 we are in touch

00:05:31.180 with the beneficiary's family,

00:05:33.620 and they have made clear

00:05:35.200 that they will not be

00:05:36.020 accepting the funds raised.

00:05:37.720 When a beneficiary

00:05:38.620 doesn't want to accept

00:05:39.600 the funds that have been

00:05:40.380 raised on their behalf,

00:05:41.280 it is standard practice

00:05:42.060 to turn off donations,

00:05:43.400 then refund all donors.

00:05:44.780 We recommend posting an update

00:05:46.080 on the fundraiser

00:05:47.120 to let your donors know

00:05:47.980 that they will be fully refunded

00:05:49.020 within the next couple days.

00:05:49.800 They will also receive

00:05:50.780 an automatic message

00:05:51.680 from GoFundMe

00:05:52.720 informing them of their refund.

00:05:54.480 They will get 100%

00:05:55.160 of their donation back

00:05:55.880 three to seven business days

00:05:56.720 after the refunds are issued.

00:05:58.120 Please let us know

00:05:58.800 if you have any questions.

00:06:00.260 And they did issue the refunds.

00:06:01.440 I put $499 into the campaign

00:06:04.080 to kick things off,

00:06:05.180 which happens to be

00:06:06.060 the monthly lease payment

00:06:07.740 for Tesla.

00:06:08.880 We just chose that amount randomly.

00:06:11.280 And I got the refund yesterday.

00:06:14.700 I didn't want it.

00:06:15.400 I'm sorry, Abuela.

00:06:17.800 I tried.

00:06:19.660 As far as questions,

00:06:20.680 I do have some.

00:06:22.580 Did Abuela herself

00:06:23.900 turn down the money?

00:06:25.500 It says the beneficiary's family

00:06:27.380 turned it down,

00:06:28.060 but we weren't raising money

00:06:29.460 for her family.

00:06:30.260 They have quite enough,

00:06:31.020 it would seem.

00:06:32.260 Like the Tesla,

00:06:33.120 the two apartments,

00:06:33.900 you know,

00:06:34.620 we were raising money for her.

00:06:36.700 Since when can the family,

00:06:38.000 the family of a beneficiary

00:06:39.720 shut down a fundraising campaign?

00:06:41.460 And more importantly,

00:06:42.660 why did they shut it down?

00:06:43.740 AOC showed us pictures

00:06:47.380 of her Abuela's home

00:06:48.560 nearly falling apart.

00:06:50.440 By the looks of it,

00:06:51.640 she was living in a crumbling shack

00:06:53.660 and had been living like that for years.

00:06:55.700 We raised enough money

00:06:57.080 to not only fix her house,

00:06:58.460 but change her life.

00:06:59.640 And we did that in 10 hours.

00:07:01.020 Imagine if it had gone on

00:07:02.440 for another two or three days.

00:07:05.440 I mean,

00:07:05.620 we could have raised,

00:07:06.220 we could have raised a million dollars.

00:07:08.480 Easily.

00:07:09.180 We could have.

00:07:10.980 And that could have gone to Abuela

00:07:12.700 and then they could have

00:07:14.700 fixed up her home,

00:07:15.340 made it perfect.

00:07:16.700 And then they could have

00:07:17.640 taken the rest of the money

00:07:18.560 if they wanted to

00:07:19.220 because it'd be their money.

00:07:20.220 And they could have given it

00:07:21.200 to a charity in Puerto Rico

00:07:22.380 to help other people.

00:07:24.040 We could have fixed up

00:07:25.260 the entire neighborhood

00:07:26.180 with that money.

00:07:29.000 And it was turned down.

00:07:31.220 This is real money.

00:07:33.160 Okay?

00:07:33.440 The money was not a joke.

00:07:34.760 It's really there.

00:07:35.660 The fact that someone

00:07:39.940 in Abuela's family

00:07:41.000 turned down the money

00:07:41.840 seems to indicate

00:07:43.600 one of two things.

00:07:46.120 Either

00:07:46.640 AOC would rather let

00:07:49.120 her own loved ones suffer

00:07:50.580 than accept help

00:07:51.740 from conservatives

00:07:52.480 and not just her loved ones again,

00:07:55.160 but

00:07:55.300 the whole community.

00:07:58.100 The whole community

00:07:59.040 could have benefited from this.

00:08:01.660 Or,

00:08:02.260 and this is the other

00:08:02.960 really scandalous possibility,

00:08:04.360 and I don't know

00:08:06.040 if this is true or not.

00:08:08.100 The other possibility

00:08:08.980 is that she misled

00:08:10.080 the public

00:08:10.700 about Abuela's

00:08:11.800 living conditions.

00:08:13.300 Were those pictures

00:08:14.420 actually current photos

00:08:15.940 of Abuela's home?

00:08:16.900 Was it all a ruse?

00:08:18.320 I don't know.

00:08:20.380 I mean,

00:08:20.560 she does seem to have

00:08:21.300 a history of

00:08:22.420 kind of exaggerating

00:08:23.760 her own personal trauma

00:08:26.460 and perhaps

00:08:27.220 that of those

00:08:28.340 close to her.

00:08:29.060 I don't know.

00:08:30.680 Maybe we'll never know.

00:08:32.800 But either way,

00:08:33.600 whatever the explanation,

00:08:34.780 whatever motivated

00:08:35.600 Abuela's family

00:08:36.340 to shut down the fundraiser

00:08:37.500 while not saying a word

00:08:38.380 about it publicly,

00:08:39.520 the truth is

00:08:40.700 unflattering

00:08:41.440 to AOC,

00:08:42.260 to say the least.

00:08:43.320 We certainly exposed

00:08:44.540 something through this effort.

00:08:45.680 We can only speculate

00:08:46.340 as to what exactly that is.

00:08:47.940 And honestly,

00:08:48.580 I am tired

00:08:49.640 of AOC

00:08:50.900 and people like her

00:08:51.780 constantly using

00:08:53.420 emotional blackmail

00:08:54.640 and supposed

00:08:55.520 personal trauma

00:08:56.700 to score political points

00:08:57.840 and silence opposition.

00:08:59.060 We called her on it

00:09:00.100 this time

00:09:00.520 in a big way,

00:09:01.120 and I can guarantee you

00:09:01.960 she regrets ever bringing

00:09:03.320 Abuela into the conversation.

00:09:04.780 If that's all we achieved

00:09:05.620 in the end,

00:09:06.780 then I'd say

00:09:07.380 it was more than worth it.

00:09:09.140 But we achieved

00:09:09.900 more than that.

00:09:10.940 We proved another

00:09:11.620 important point.

00:09:13.860 Tragedy and misfortune

00:09:14.820 are often exploited

00:09:15.900 in order to push

00:09:16.740 for government action.

00:09:18.580 And we're made to believe

00:09:19.400 that the only,

00:09:20.800 you know,

00:09:21.040 that only the government

00:09:21.880 can address

00:09:22.900 these sorts of problems.

00:09:24.960 But we addressed

00:09:25.960 the problem

00:09:26.460 and could have solved it

00:09:27.900 in just

00:09:28.940 one day

00:09:30.180 through private action.

00:09:33.560 And I have to

00:09:34.800 keep stressing.

00:09:35.620 I cannot stress enough.

00:09:37.260 $100,000

00:09:37.920 in 10 hours.

00:09:38.960 We could have gone

00:09:39.540 to a million

00:09:40.180 easily.

00:09:42.100 And how far

00:09:42.820 could that money

00:09:43.560 have gone?

00:09:44.160 Not just for Abuela,

00:09:45.260 but for the whole community

00:09:46.060 if they had chosen

00:09:48.240 to share it.

00:09:51.840 There's a lesson

00:09:52.580 here

00:09:53.040 for those who are

00:09:53.840 willing to learn it.

00:09:55.220 Finally,

00:09:55.920 most of all,

00:09:57.040 we proved

00:09:58.540 that I am

00:09:59.500 one of the world's

00:10:00.200 leading philanthropists.

00:10:01.600 I'm like Bill Gates,

00:10:02.880 except without the sex parties

00:10:04.520 or the $100 billion.

00:10:06.260 So I guess I'm not like

00:10:07.180 Bill Gates at all,

00:10:07.860 come to think of it.

00:10:08.380 But I will now be

00:10:09.640 throwing my hat

00:10:10.260 into the ring

00:10:10.880 for a Nobel Peace Prize.

00:10:12.100 I'm not sure

00:10:12.420 if that's how it works exactly,

00:10:13.720 but I would like to announce

00:10:14.520 that I'll accept the award

00:10:16.520 if it's offered to me.

00:10:17.480 And I think we can all agree

00:10:18.540 that I'm deserving,

00:10:19.220 especially because

00:10:19.800 the award means

00:10:21.000 absolutely nothing

00:10:21.540 these days anyway.

00:10:22.400 So you might as well

00:10:23.140 give it to a guy 0.74

00:10:23.760 who trolled a politician

00:10:24.600 by raising $100,000

00:10:25.540 for a grandmother.

00:10:26.920 Why not?

00:10:28.520 Now, some people I know

00:10:29.860 may not be satisfied

00:10:32.140 and there are still questions

00:10:33.440 about what we did here

00:10:34.840 and why we did it.

00:10:36.960 There are some

00:10:37.620 even on the right

00:10:38.440 who object.

00:10:39.480 There were some on the right

00:10:40.360 who were offended

00:10:41.000 by all of this

00:10:41.820 and let me know it.

00:10:44.180 And there are some people

00:10:45.040 still questioning.

00:10:46.300 You know,

00:10:46.520 was it all just a big troll?

00:10:48.140 Was it a stunt?

00:10:49.600 Was it charitable?

00:10:50.660 Was it proving a point?

00:10:52.280 Was it trying to solve a problem?

00:10:54.400 Was it a sincere

00:10:55.320 attempt to raise money

00:10:56.320 for a cause?

00:10:57.700 Was it mean?

00:10:58.720 Was it nice?

00:10:59.600 Was it petty?

00:11:00.360 Was it generous?

00:11:01.760 Was it hilarious?

00:11:04.080 The answer, in short,

00:11:05.760 is yes.

00:11:08.160 Now let's get to

00:11:08.860 our five headlines.

00:11:15.800 Now, a word from

00:11:16.700 our good friends

00:11:17.420 over at Charity Mobile.

00:11:18.720 Look, Charity Mobile

00:11:19.400 is the pro-life

00:11:21.080 phone company

00:11:21.900 and they're a pro-life

00:11:23.020 phone company

00:11:23.420 because 5%

00:11:24.380 of your monthly

00:11:25.020 plan price

00:11:25.580 goes to the pro-life,

00:11:26.660 pro-family charity

00:11:27.380 of your choice,

00:11:29.020 which is great

00:11:30.280 because it shows

00:11:31.180 that at least

00:11:31.520 there's one company.

00:11:32.420 They're not the only one,

00:11:33.200 but it's unfortunately

00:11:34.060 a minority of companies

00:11:34.980 out there

00:11:35.360 that really

00:11:35.880 are on our side

00:11:38.020 in the culture

00:11:38.700 and fighting

00:11:39.780 for the same causes

00:11:40.460 that we are.

00:11:41.140 And when you find

00:11:41.520 a company like that,

00:11:42.300 it really is important

00:11:42.960 to support them.

00:11:43.980 You can help to build

00:11:45.020 a culture of life

00:11:45.800 in America

00:11:46.180 while supporting

00:11:46.780 a pro-life phone company.

00:11:47.860 It's really a win-win

00:11:48.760 both on the charity side

00:11:50.020 of it

00:11:50.200 and also on the quality

00:11:51.820 of the service

00:11:52.340 because a lot of perks

00:11:53.760 come with being

00:11:54.820 a Charity Mobile customer.

00:11:55.980 You get new activations

00:12:08.080 any issues at all

00:12:08.820 and need to talk to them,

00:12:09.700 it's very easy to do.

00:12:11.120 You can call them

00:12:22.980 and a new plan

00:12:23.620 with higher data limit.

00:12:24.760 Existing customers

00:12:26.000 the new lower plan prices

00:12:26.980 so no need to contact them

00:12:28.240 and ask.

00:12:29.140 Again,

00:12:29.400 that's charitymobile.com.

00:12:31.500 All right,

00:12:32.180 this is not in my headlines

00:12:34.620 because I didn't watch it

00:12:35.800 because I'm not going

00:12:36.640 to pay $50

00:12:37.160 for something

00:12:38.180 that you can watch

00:12:38.840 after the fact for free

00:12:40.060 but I guess

00:12:40.900 there was this fight,

00:12:41.820 boxing match

00:12:44.200 between Floyd Mayweather

00:12:45.720 and Logan Paul

00:12:48.740 yesterday

00:12:49.500 and I guess

00:12:51.240 nobody won.

00:12:51.960 It was an exhibition match

00:12:53.100 and there was

00:12:54.280 no winner.

00:12:58.220 Floyd Mayweather

00:12:59.060 is retired

00:13:00.060 and in his 40s

00:13:01.160 so he's got,

00:13:03.620 but he's also

00:13:04.240 a professional boxer.

00:13:05.660 Logan Paul,

00:13:06.840 much bigger,

00:13:07.880 younger,

00:13:08.680 not a professional boxer.

00:13:09.720 So,

00:13:09.980 you know,

00:13:10.240 you match those two up

00:13:11.240 and you get

00:13:11.660 just a bad fight,

00:13:13.300 I guess,

00:13:13.900 that people paid $50

00:13:15.040 to watch.

00:13:17.200 My only,

00:13:18.060 I guess,

00:13:18.340 my only question

00:13:18.920 that I take

00:13:19.680 from this event

00:13:20.700 and really any boxing match

00:13:22.240 but you look at

00:13:23.200 some of the promotional photos

00:13:24.400 from this event

00:13:26.340 and there's always that one

00:13:27.740 and because they always

00:13:28.600 do this in boxing

00:13:29.240 where they,

00:13:30.080 you know,

00:13:31.520 square off a couple days

00:13:32.560 before the fight

00:13:33.300 and they get right

00:13:34.900 in each other's,

00:13:35.500 like this close

00:13:36.280 to each other's faces

00:13:37.140 like they're just about

00:13:39.520 to kiss

00:13:40.040 with their mouths 0.97

00:13:40.820 like an inch

00:13:42.360 from each other

00:13:43.280 and they stare

00:13:44.920 at each other

00:13:45.280 for five minutes

00:13:45.920 and I feel

00:13:48.280 really uncomfortable

00:13:49.220 just seeing it.

00:13:50.900 I can't imagine

00:13:51.660 how uncomfortable

00:13:52.160 it is to do.

00:13:54.520 I guess my point is

00:13:55.420 why do,

00:13:56.020 what's the point of that?

00:13:57.240 Why do boxers do that? 0.95

00:14:00.020 They don't do that,

00:14:00.760 they don't do that

00:14:01.240 before a football game.

00:14:03.520 You don't have

00:14:04.280 the players

00:14:05.000 from both sides

00:14:05.900 take their helmets off

00:14:07.300 and meet in the middle

00:14:08.560 of the field

00:14:08.960 and make out.

00:14:09.780 Like that,

00:14:10.040 that only isn't boxing

00:14:11.300 and I don't understand it.

00:14:15.560 That's the end

00:14:16.140 of my analysis of that.

00:14:17.260 All right.

00:14:18.080 Number one,

00:14:18.820 rioting broke out

00:14:19.540 in Minneapolis

00:14:20.000 again over the weekend.

00:14:21.120 It happens so often now,

00:14:22.460 especially in Minneapolis,

00:14:23.440 that you don't even

00:14:24.120 notice anymore.

00:14:25.100 Of course,

00:14:25.340 part of the reason

00:14:25.720 you don't notice it

00:14:26.380 is that the media

00:14:26.900 doesn't really cover it

00:14:27.860 and they don't cover it

00:14:28.960 because for obvious

00:14:29.940 political and ideological reasons.

00:14:31.440 But I also think

00:14:32.060 that it's hardly

00:14:34.040 even news anymore

00:14:35.240 because it happens

00:14:37.300 so often.

00:14:37.880 not to give the media

00:14:39.440 an excuse for not reporting

00:14:40.540 because they should,

00:14:41.560 but at the same time,

00:14:42.880 I think everyone

00:14:43.640 almost has the same attitude

00:14:45.200 of,

00:14:46.800 oh yeah,

00:14:47.160 BLM is riding again. 0.57

00:14:48.520 What else is new?

00:14:49.940 Oh,

00:14:50.140 they burned down

00:14:50.640 three buildings?

00:14:52.100 I mean,

00:14:52.800 they do it all the time.

00:14:54.240 At a certain point,

00:14:54.960 it just becomes

00:14:55.760 part of the background.

00:14:59.100 And it shouldn't be,

00:15:00.380 but that's what it becomes

00:15:01.340 because they're allowed

00:15:02.620 to do this

00:15:03.560 over and over again

00:15:05.060 for months

00:15:06.500 and years on end.

00:15:08.620 But that's what was happening

00:15:10.360 and this time,

00:15:11.080 the martyr of choice

00:15:12.140 is a guy named

00:15:13.040 Winston Bougie Smith.

00:15:16.220 As far as you know,

00:15:17.140 Bougie is his real middle name.

00:15:18.940 It's not a nickname.

00:15:20.060 I could be wrong about that,

00:15:21.220 but this is from Fox 9.

00:15:23.220 Let me read a little bit

00:15:24.160 of the report to you.

00:15:26.340 It says,

00:15:27.160 Winston Bougie Smith,

00:15:28.000 as identified by family

00:15:29.040 and friends,

00:15:29.540 was shot by a Ramsey County deputy

00:15:31.440 and a Hennepin County deputy

00:15:33.280 during an encounter

00:15:34.040 on the top floor

00:15:34.760 of the parking garage

00:15:35.580 in the 1400 block

00:15:36.580 of Lake Street

00:15:37.820 Thursday afternoon.

00:15:39.900 A U.S. Marshal's

00:15:41.280 fugitive task force

00:15:42.500 was attempting

00:15:43.140 to arrest Smith,

00:15:44.420 32 years old,

00:15:45.340 for a warrant

00:15:46.300 on a felony firearms violation

00:15:48.180 when the incident occurred.

00:15:51.420 BCA investigators,

00:15:52.620 that's the Bureau

00:15:53.140 of Criminal Apprehension,

00:15:54.780 say there's evidence

00:15:55.540 showing that Smith 0.76

00:15:56.260 fired his gun

00:15:57.320 from inside the vehicle

00:15:58.340 and spent casings

00:15:59.620 were found

00:15:59.980 on the driver's side.

00:16:01.360 However,

00:16:01.580 there's no body camera footage

00:16:02.760 or squad dash cam footage

00:16:04.240 of the incident.

00:16:05.300 The BCA says

00:16:06.020 members of the task force

00:16:06.980 weren't allowed

00:16:07.780 to wear body cameras

00:16:08.820 despite a change

00:16:09.580 in policy at the federal level

00:16:10.620 allowing for the use

00:16:11.780 of cameras by officers

00:16:12.660 and deputies

00:16:13.100 on the task force.

00:16:13.780 At the same time,

00:16:14.980 social media postings

00:16:15.880 seemed to show

00:16:16.580 Smith was prepared

00:16:17.500 for a confrontation

00:16:18.180 with police.

00:16:19.060 An internal document

00:16:19.760 from law enforcement

00:16:20.460 quotes Smith

00:16:21.140 as saying,

00:16:21.940 quote,

00:16:22.620 that he would,

00:16:23.360 quote,

00:16:23.560 shoot it out

00:16:24.280 if he was ever

00:16:25.640 pulled off

00:16:26.280 by law enforcement.

00:16:28.140 Okay,

00:16:30.080 so,

00:16:30.360 I mean,

00:16:30.640 that's really

00:16:31.020 all you need

00:16:31.660 to know

00:16:32.080 that he was

00:16:34.720 a wanted felon

00:16:35.920 fugitive from justice

00:16:38.500 that they were pursuing.

00:16:40.740 He had a gun.

00:16:41.980 This was not an unarmed,

00:16:43.000 in no way

00:16:43.920 was this an unarmed

00:16:44.920 man getting shot

00:16:46.440 by cops.

00:16:46.780 He had a gun.

00:16:47.240 He had an illegal gun

00:16:48.160 because he's a felon

00:16:48.860 and a fugitive

00:16:49.360 and you're not allowed

00:16:49.820 to have guns

00:16:50.320 when you're a felon

00:16:50.840 and a fugitive

00:16:51.300 and he shot,

00:16:53.560 he used it.

00:16:54.420 He was shooting

00:16:55.500 at the police.

00:16:59.120 The spent shell casings

00:17:00.580 in the car

00:17:01.300 pretty well confirms that.

00:17:04.320 So,

00:17:04.920 a wanted fugitive,

00:17:06.600 violent felon,

00:17:09.120 armed,

00:17:11.180 resisting arrest

00:17:12.260 and putting all that aside,

00:17:14.860 you know,

00:17:15.100 even all of that

00:17:16.100 doesn't matter.

00:17:17.200 Like,

00:17:17.360 the only thing

00:17:17.860 that really matters here

00:17:18.600 is that he was shooting

00:17:19.860 at the police

00:17:20.480 and he got shot.

00:17:25.060 Literally,

00:17:25.760 if you shoot at the cops,

00:17:26.960 I don't care who you are.

00:17:28.800 Doesn't matter

00:17:29.260 if you're not a felon.

00:17:30.000 You could be

00:17:30.260 the greatest guy

00:17:30.740 in the world.

00:17:30.980 You could be

00:17:31.500 Mr. Rogers

00:17:32.200 shooting at the cops

00:17:35.820 and you're going

00:17:36.220 to get shot.

00:17:39.140 Perfectly fair.

00:17:41.420 In fact,

00:17:41.860 we could go

00:17:42.300 even further than that.

00:17:43.680 You shoot at anyone

00:17:44.860 who has a gun

00:17:45.580 and you're going

00:17:46.060 to get shot.

00:17:47.260 Legally.

00:17:47.540 So that's all

00:17:52.600 you really need

00:17:53.180 to know about this

00:17:54.000 and that on top

00:17:56.140 of the fact

00:17:56.500 that he had

00:17:56.900 previously announced

00:17:57.960 his intention

00:17:58.720 to shoot it out

00:17:59.340 with the cops

00:17:59.840 and then he did

00:18:00.740 shoot it out

00:18:01.200 with the cops.

00:18:03.780 But we could

00:18:04.640 add some more

00:18:05.480 information.

00:18:06.080 He also had,

00:18:06.880 I think it was

00:18:07.340 20 arrests

00:18:08.220 under his belt

00:18:09.200 including,

00:18:12.480 and he had

00:18:13.360 previously

00:18:14.060 online had

00:18:15.360 encouraged,

00:18:16.320 not only had he

00:18:17.040 announced his

00:18:17.580 intention to

00:18:18.040 shoot it out

00:18:18.380 with the cops,

00:18:19.380 an intention

00:18:19.780 which he then

00:18:20.620 followed through on,

00:18:21.880 but he had

00:18:22.320 encouraged the

00:18:23.300 burning of

00:18:24.380 police stations.

00:18:26.580 He was encouraging

00:18:27.480 violence against

00:18:28.220 police officers

00:18:28.900 and then he went

00:18:29.900 and committed

00:18:30.280 that violence

00:18:30.800 himself.

00:18:32.140 But one of his

00:18:32.980 arrests,

00:18:33.940 and I almost

00:18:34.440 don't need to

00:18:34.980 tell you this

00:18:35.480 because you know

00:18:36.420 this is coming.

00:18:37.040 I'll let you

00:18:39.140 fill in the

00:18:39.560 blanks because

00:18:41.040 there's one

00:18:41.420 thing we know

00:18:42.060 about BLM

00:18:42.900 martyrs.

00:18:44.900 Almost every

00:18:46.180 time they are

00:18:48.040 violent felons

00:18:48.820 in the process

00:18:51.180 of resisting

00:18:51.700 arrest and

00:18:52.220 assaulting or

00:18:52.800 trying to kill

00:18:53.260 cops.

00:18:55.680 And what's

00:18:56.420 one crime,

00:18:58.960 one type of

00:19:00.460 crime that they

00:19:01.180 almost always

00:19:02.100 have committed

00:19:02.680 in the past?

00:19:06.240 Violence against

00:19:07.020 women, right? 1.00

00:19:08.720 So many cases

00:19:09.680 of that,

00:19:10.020 whether it's

00:19:10.320 George Floyd,

00:19:11.520 Jacob Blake,

00:19:12.160 et cetera,

00:19:12.960 and that was

00:19:13.680 the case here

00:19:14.100 too.

00:19:14.860 Winston Bougie

00:19:15.400 Smith had

00:19:15.840 20 arrests,

00:19:16.740 aggravated

00:19:17.240 robbery of a

00:19:18.020 woman being

00:19:18.760 one of them,

00:19:19.440 and I believe

00:19:20.000 the woman was 0.99

00:19:20.680 like his

00:19:21.100 ex-girlfriend

00:19:21.700 or something.

00:19:23.080 He committed

00:19:23.500 an aggravated

00:19:23.940 robbery against

00:19:24.540 her.

00:19:26.580 It really is,

00:19:27.680 it's almost,

00:19:28.520 it's an

00:19:28.880 impressive track

00:19:29.760 record with

00:19:31.120 BLM. 0.71

00:19:33.460 Every single

00:19:34.500 martyr that

00:19:35.720 they choose

00:19:36.380 ends up

00:19:38.160 being not

00:19:38.540 only a

00:19:38.840 violent

00:19:39.080 felon,

00:19:39.580 but someone

00:19:40.100 specifically

00:19:40.980 who had

00:19:41.360 committed

00:19:41.640 violence

00:19:42.120 against

00:19:42.360 women. 0.81

00:19:43.840 This is

00:19:44.500 so common.

00:19:46.680 It's like

00:19:47.300 they're sifting

00:19:48.140 through all

00:19:48.780 of the

00:19:49.040 potential

00:19:49.560 martyrs

00:19:51.420 that they

00:19:51.680 can choose

00:19:52.320 and it's

00:19:53.060 almost like

00:19:53.420 they intentionally

00:19:54.260 choose the

00:19:54.940 ones who

00:19:56.080 have committed

00:19:56.560 some kind

00:19:57.020 of violent

00:19:57.340 act against

00:19:57.820 a woman.

00:20:00.620 Either it's

00:20:01.600 an intentional

00:20:02.160 choice or it's

00:20:02.980 a hell of a

00:20:03.640 coincidence.

00:20:04.000 that at

00:20:07.220 this point

00:20:07.820 you can

00:20:08.920 assume it.

00:20:11.080 When BLM

00:20:11.880 is rioting

00:20:12.440 over someone

00:20:13.180 being shot

00:20:13.960 by the cops,

00:20:14.640 before you

00:20:15.280 even know

00:20:15.520 the person's

00:20:16.040 name,

00:20:16.460 you can just

00:20:16.780 assume that

00:20:17.880 they've committed

00:20:18.240 some violent

00:20:18.760 act against

00:20:19.140 a woman in

00:20:19.500 the past

00:20:19.780 because it's

00:20:20.760 always the

00:20:21.180 case.

00:20:24.240 All right,

00:20:24.840 let's go here.

00:20:25.640 This is from

00:20:26.060 the New York

00:20:26.360 Post.

00:20:26.840 It says,

00:20:27.380 a New York

00:20:27.780 City-based

00:20:28.280 psychiatrist

00:20:28.880 told an

00:20:29.380 audience at

00:20:29.940 the Yale

00:20:30.260 School of

00:20:30.680 Medicine in

00:20:31.120 April that

00:20:31.560 she had

00:20:31.860 fantasies of

00:20:32.700 quote,

00:20:33.000 unloading a

00:20:33.580 revolver into

00:20:34.460 the head of

00:20:35.020 any white

00:20:35.520 person that

00:20:36.080 got in my

00:20:36.500 way.

00:20:37.600 This is,

00:20:38.320 again,

00:20:38.540 the psychiatrist

00:20:39.200 saying this,

00:20:40.120 not one of

00:20:40.580 her patients.

00:20:42.020 I'd like to

00:20:42.720 know what

00:20:43.160 this psychiatrist

00:20:43.760 would say to

00:20:44.580 a patient who

00:20:45.580 confesses these

00:20:46.220 violent fantasies.

00:20:48.080 I guess she

00:20:48.740 would say,

00:20:49.340 oh yeah,

00:20:49.740 me too.

00:20:50.540 That's completely

00:20:51.240 natural and

00:20:51.820 normal.

00:20:54.700 Dr.

00:20:55.260 Aruna

00:20:55.740 Kilanani,

00:20:57.600 Kilanani we'll 0.92

00:20:58.240 just call her,

00:20:59.220 spewed the

00:20:59.760 race-hating

00:21:00.240 virtual remarks

00:21:01.460 in which she

00:21:02.040 also said she'd

00:21:02.820 walk away from

00:21:03.580 the shooting with

00:21:04.200 a bounce in

00:21:04.820 my step and

00:21:05.700 that white 0.95

00:21:06.080 people make

00:21:06.720 my blood

00:21:07.260 boil and

00:21:08.320 are quote,

00:21:08.780 out of their

00:21:09.220 minds and

00:21:09.680 have been for

00:21:10.280 a long time.

00:21:11.240 She said all

00:21:11.720 that at the

00:21:12.240 Ivy League

00:21:12.700 Institution's

00:21:13.360 Child Study

00:21:14.020 Center on

00:21:15.420 April 6th.

00:21:16.740 Audio of the

00:21:17.360 talk, which

00:21:17.720 we'll play in

00:21:18.000 a second,

00:21:18.480 was posted on

00:21:19.140 the Substack

00:21:19.760 online platform

00:21:20.540 of former

00:21:21.000 New York

00:21:21.240 Times opinion

00:21:21.880 writer and

00:21:22.300 editor Barry

00:21:22.820 Weiss on

00:21:23.720 Friday along

00:21:24.200 with an

00:21:24.460 interview of

00:21:25.080 Kilanani

00:21:25.520 conducted by

00:21:26.200 writer and

00:21:26.680 podcaster Katie

00:21:27.420 Herzog.

00:21:28.420 A flyer

00:21:29.020 promoting the

00:21:29.540 talk and

00:21:29.900 posted online

00:21:30.440 by Weiss

00:21:30.980 titled the

00:21:31.560 lecture,

00:21:32.520 quote,

00:21:32.820 The Psychopathic

00:21:33.700 Problem of

00:21:34.360 the White

00:21:34.740 Mind and

00:21:36.440 included learning

00:21:37.240 objectives such

00:21:38.820 as set up

00:21:40.120 white people's 0.54

00:21:40.760 absence of

00:21:41.320 empathy towards

00:21:42.080 black rage as 0.98

00:21:43.100 a problem and

00:21:44.640 understand how

00:21:45.740 white people are 0.70

00:21:46.500 psychologically

00:21:47.080 dependent on

00:21:48.220 black rage. 0.61

00:21:50.480 What the hell

00:21:51.260 does any of that

00:21:51.760 mean?

00:21:52.080 I have no idea,

00:21:52.860 but we have some

00:21:53.440 of the audio

00:21:53.920 from the talk

00:21:54.580 and maybe that'll

00:21:55.920 be explained in

00:21:56.620 this.

00:21:56.860 Let's listen.

00:21:57.240 White people 0.90

00:21:58.840 make my blood

00:21:59.600 boil.

00:22:00.420 Around five

00:22:01.100 years ago,

00:22:01.560 I took some

00:22:02.080 action.

00:22:03.040 I systemically,

00:22:04.320 systematically,

00:22:05.200 now I'm

00:22:05.380 going to

00:22:05.520 do,

00:22:06.280 white ghosted

00:22:07.180 most of my

00:22:07.720 white friends

00:22:08.280 and I got

00:22:09.540 rid of a

00:22:10.020 couple white

00:22:10.480 BIPOCs that

00:22:11.140 snuck in my

00:22:11.620 crew too.

00:22:12.600 I stopped

00:22:13.280 watching the

00:22:13.780 news.

00:22:14.660 Once I started,

00:22:15.540 I couldn't

00:22:16.060 stop.

00:22:17.140 I had less

00:22:17.560 than 1%

00:22:18.020 left.

00:22:19.520 It was also

00:22:20.260 public service.

00:22:21.700 I had

00:22:21.940 fantasies of

00:22:22.800 unloading a

00:22:23.440 revolver into

00:22:24.240 the head of

00:22:25.260 any white

00:22:25.760 person that

00:22:26.240 got in my

00:22:26.740 way,

00:22:27.360 gearing their

00:22:27.940 body and

00:22:29.940 wiping my

00:22:30.520 bloody hands

00:22:31.220 as I walked

00:22:31.740 away relatively

00:22:32.620 deeply.

00:22:34.000 Well,

00:22:34.440 that's

00:22:34.720 much

00:22:35.060 sense.

00:22:36.820 Now,

00:22:37.360 I have no

00:22:37.780 idea why it

00:22:38.360 sounds like

00:22:38.820 that audio

00:22:39.560 was recorded

00:22:40.180 with a

00:22:41.420 toaster oven

00:22:42.040 or something,

00:22:43.380 but you can

00:22:44.080 hear her say

00:22:44.760 it there.

00:22:45.420 And one

00:22:46.220 thing is,

00:22:46.860 not that this

00:22:47.400 really matters

00:22:48.020 at all,

00:22:48.540 but from

00:22:49.200 her tone of

00:22:50.520 voice and

00:22:50.900 everything,

00:22:51.460 it sounds to

00:22:52.220 me like these

00:22:52.680 are prepared

00:22:53.260 remarks.

00:22:53.780 so when

00:22:54.920 you first

00:22:55.360 hear about

00:22:55.800 this,

00:22:56.260 you think,

00:22:57.040 okay,

00:22:57.240 was this an

00:22:57.720 off-the-cuff

00:22:58.320 thing and

00:22:59.060 she was

00:22:59.320 having a

00:22:59.780 bad day

00:23:00.420 and she

00:23:02.120 said this,

00:23:02.980 she was

00:23:03.240 having a

00:23:03.620 psychotic

00:23:05.720 break in

00:23:06.220 the middle

00:23:06.480 of,

00:23:07.740 not that that

00:23:08.200 would excuse

00:23:08.660 it,

00:23:08.900 but you think

00:23:09.340 maybe that's

00:23:10.040 what happened.

00:23:10.540 No,

00:23:10.760 this seems

00:23:11.600 like prepared

00:23:12.360 remarks,

00:23:13.040 which when

00:23:13.460 you think

00:23:13.700 the title

00:23:14.460 of the

00:23:14.700 talk is

00:23:15.080 The

00:23:15.280 Psychopathic

00:23:16.040 Problem

00:23:16.380 of the

00:23:16.780 White

00:23:16.980 Mind,

00:23:17.400 that means

00:23:19.800 there's some

00:23:20.080 irony there,

00:23:20.820 right?

00:23:21.900 Oh,

00:23:22.240 the white

00:23:22.700 mind is

00:23:23.120 psychopathic,

00:23:23.980 not you.

00:23:24.940 You're talking

00:23:25.520 about fantasizing

00:23:26.440 about blowing

00:23:27.140 their brains

00:23:27.680 out for

00:23:28.880 their race.

00:23:31.200 But these

00:23:31.840 are prepared

00:23:32.280 remarks,

00:23:33.000 it seems

00:23:33.780 like.

00:23:34.260 So she

00:23:34.640 typed this

00:23:35.440 out.

00:23:37.260 She sat

00:23:37.980 there and

00:23:38.280 typed out,

00:23:38.960 yes,

00:23:39.420 I have a

00:23:39.780 fantasy of

00:23:40.540 unloading a

00:23:41.220 revolver in

00:23:41.900 the head of

00:23:42.360 any white

00:23:42.700 person that

00:23:43.200 gets in my

00:23:43.580 way.

00:23:43.820 And she

00:23:47.140 feels,

00:23:48.440 what does

00:23:49.020 this tell

00:23:49.360 you?

00:23:49.520 Not only

00:23:49.900 that we

00:23:50.240 have a

00:23:51.120 psychiatrist

00:23:51.660 speaking,

00:23:54.320 obviously

00:23:54.700 with some

00:23:55.240 prominence,

00:23:55.800 she's speaking

00:23:56.360 to an

00:23:57.860 audience at

00:23:58.340 the Yale

00:23:58.640 School of

00:23:59.080 Medicine,

00:24:00.080 so she's

00:24:00.660 in a

00:24:00.860 teaching

00:24:01.120 capacity

00:24:01.640 as well.

00:24:03.100 But a

00:24:03.600 psychiatrist

00:24:03.960 who feels

00:24:04.460 this way

00:24:04.940 personally,

00:24:06.240 what does

00:24:07.140 that tell

00:24:07.460 you?

00:24:07.560 And what

00:24:07.780 does it

00:24:07.980 tell you

00:24:08.320 that she

00:24:08.820 feels so

00:24:09.440 comfortable

00:24:09.960 talking about

00:24:12.400 this and

00:24:13.160 sharing these

00:24:13.800 viewpoints?

00:24:16.580 She knows.

00:24:17.940 Now,

00:24:18.100 there was

00:24:18.260 obviously at

00:24:18.760 least one

00:24:19.200 person listening

00:24:19.960 who didn't

00:24:20.460 approve,

00:24:20.880 and that's

00:24:21.100 why they

00:24:21.480 took out

00:24:22.260 their toaster

00:24:22.660 oven and

00:24:23.160 recorded it.

00:24:24.440 But she

00:24:26.340 knew that

00:24:27.140 almost everyone

00:24:27.900 in the audience

00:24:28.640 would agree

00:24:29.040 with her,

00:24:29.880 white or

00:24:30.260 not.

00:24:33.200 This isn't

00:24:34.640 mild,

00:24:36.940 anti-white

00:24:37.700 racism,

00:24:38.740 which would

00:24:38.960 be bad

00:24:39.920 enough.

00:24:41.520 Okay?

00:24:42.120 This isn't

00:24:42.880 like I get

00:24:43.360 annoyed at

00:24:43.780 white people

00:24:44.180 sometimes.

00:24:45.100 This is,

00:24:45.600 I want to

00:24:45.980 kill them. 0.54

00:24:47.640 I fantasize

00:24:48.660 about murdering

00:24:49.640 them.

00:24:50.880 And I would

00:24:51.620 walk away

00:24:52.100 with a bounce

00:24:52.900 and I would

00:24:53.300 be happy.

00:24:56.760 If you've

00:24:57.520 ever had a

00:24:59.240 fantasy like

00:24:59.920 that,

00:25:00.240 really fantasized

00:25:01.520 about actually

00:25:02.620 killing something,

00:25:03.740 blowing someone's

00:25:04.480 brains out,

00:25:05.500 and you felt

00:25:07.520 that you would

00:25:07.840 be happy

00:25:08.380 after doing

00:25:08.940 it,

00:25:09.160 then you've

00:25:11.840 got some

00:25:12.240 deep spiritual

00:25:13.140 and psychological

00:25:13.700 problems.

00:25:14.940 I don't

00:25:15.460 really care

00:25:15.740 who the

00:25:16.000 person is.

00:25:17.480 But you're

00:25:17.840 having this

00:25:18.200 fantasy about

00:25:18.760 an entire

00:25:19.180 race of

00:25:19.780 people.

00:25:21.680 This is

00:25:22.280 like

00:25:22.480 genocidal,

00:25:23.800 murderous,

00:25:25.840 bigotry,

00:25:27.760 and racist

00:25:28.920 rage that

00:25:29.860 she has

00:25:30.320 towards an

00:25:32.780 entire group

00:25:33.140 of people.

00:25:33.460 And these

00:25:36.460 are also

00:25:36.820 people.

00:25:37.200 How many

00:25:37.640 actual white

00:25:38.460 people have

00:25:40.020 gone in to

00:25:40.740 consult this

00:25:42.760 scumbag,

00:25:43.820 this racist

00:25:44.560 scumbag?

00:25:46.600 How many

00:25:47.200 white people

00:25:47.500 have been

00:25:48.940 lying on the

00:25:49.420 couch there

00:25:49.820 consulting her

00:25:50.540 while she's

00:25:52.240 just seething

00:25:53.240 with rage?

00:25:56.380 Maybe eyeing

00:25:57.240 the revolver

00:25:57.780 she has locked

00:25:58.420 in the corner

00:25:58.820 of the room

00:25:59.160 and thinking,

00:25:59.560 is this the

00:25:59.820 time?

00:26:00.440 Should I

00:26:00.740 do it now?

00:26:03.460 This is

00:26:03.760 really

00:26:04.020 disturbing.

00:26:05.920 Needless to

00:26:06.540 say.

00:26:06.960 I would hope

00:26:07.280 it's needless

00:26:07.700 to say.

00:26:10.740 But what

00:26:11.340 we have to

00:26:11.940 understand is

00:26:12.740 that this

00:26:13.200 stuff, and

00:26:14.900 I think this

00:26:15.420 isn't discussed

00:26:16.000 enough, it's

00:26:17.400 discussed by

00:26:17.940 me, but I

00:26:18.440 don't think it's

00:26:18.780 discussed even

00:26:19.300 by conservatives

00:26:20.040 and discussed

00:26:20.820 in the general

00:26:21.240 culture enough,

00:26:22.200 that this stuff

00:26:23.100 is deeply

00:26:23.840 ingrained in

00:26:24.740 the psychiatry

00:26:25.500 and psychology

00:26:26.220 fields.

00:26:27.820 Critical race

00:26:28.440 theory, gender

00:26:29.840 theory, all

00:26:30.760 of this far

00:26:31.840 left, militant

00:26:33.440 radical

00:26:35.200 leftism, deeply

00:26:37.000 ingrained in

00:26:37.560 these fields.

00:26:38.120 Now, we

00:26:38.340 hear as

00:26:38.880 conservatives, we

00:26:39.820 know about

00:26:40.500 CRT and

00:26:41.620 gender theory

00:26:42.000 and everything

00:26:42.260 in the schools,

00:26:43.280 we know it's

00:26:43.760 a problem

00:26:44.080 there in

00:26:44.380 academia, we

00:26:45.560 talk about

00:26:45.940 how it's a

00:26:46.280 problem in

00:26:46.700 media, but

00:26:48.660 it is probably

00:26:49.600 even more

00:26:50.200 deeply ingrained

00:26:50.920 in the

00:26:51.840 psychiatry and

00:26:52.520 psychology

00:26:52.980 fields, and

00:26:54.560 these are

00:26:55.520 people who

00:26:57.120 have access

00:26:58.880 to very

00:26:59.560 vulnerable

00:27:00.140 minds.

00:27:00.660 they've

00:27:02.740 got patients

00:27:03.300 coming in

00:27:03.880 who, that's

00:27:04.460 why they're

00:27:04.820 there, they're

00:27:05.340 mentally

00:27:05.780 vulnerable, and

00:27:09.080 now they're

00:27:09.340 being subjected

00:27:10.040 to brainwashing

00:27:11.080 from these

00:27:13.760 militant

00:27:14.280 wackos.

00:27:16.840 That's why, and

00:27:17.580 people don't like

00:27:18.060 it when I say

00:27:18.480 it, but this is

00:27:18.960 why I would be

00:27:19.920 very, very

00:27:20.680 wary of

00:27:21.660 consulting a

00:27:23.120 psychiatrist or

00:27:23.900 a psychologist

00:27:24.500 at all.

00:27:25.960 I'm not saying

00:27:26.780 you can't trust

00:27:27.380 any of them, I'm

00:27:28.140 not saying you

00:27:28.660 should never

00:27:29.100 consult them, I'm

00:27:31.220 just saying I'd

00:27:31.660 be wary, I'd be

00:27:32.880 very cautious

00:27:33.880 about it.

00:27:37.000 And you've

00:27:37.400 got to really do

00:27:38.140 your due

00:27:38.480 diligence before

00:27:40.080 you pay these

00:27:40.640 people hundreds

00:27:41.420 of dollars to

00:27:42.320 hear your

00:27:42.600 problems.

00:27:46.360 Some of

00:27:46.940 them, a good

00:27:48.040 number of

00:27:48.500 them, are not

00:27:49.460 just far-left

00:27:50.340 wackos, but

00:27:51.080 are, this is

00:27:52.180 pure evil.

00:27:52.760 And once

00:27:55.500 again, pure

00:27:56.320 evil that she

00:27:57.140 felt perfectly

00:27:58.100 comfortable expressing

00:27:59.780 to a room of

00:28:01.080 her peers.

00:28:03.180 Comfortable for a

00:28:03.840 good reason, because

00:28:04.400 most of them feel

00:28:04.920 the same way.

00:28:09.500 So, I don't

00:28:10.220 know, if you

00:28:10.900 were thinking you

00:28:11.640 needed to see a

00:28:12.360 psychologist,

00:28:12.920 psychiatrist, if I

00:28:14.420 were you, before

00:28:15.120 I did it, I

00:28:16.540 would be doing a

00:28:17.580 lot of research, I

00:28:18.500 would be talking

00:28:19.080 to others, I'd be

00:28:19.600 getting referrals, I'd

00:28:20.960 find someone I

00:28:21.800 trust who's already

00:28:22.500 met with that

00:28:23.360 person, and I

00:28:23.940 would talk to

00:28:24.380 them to get 0.86

00:28:25.500 some insight

00:28:26.000 first.

00:28:28.940 You just got to

00:28:29.580 be very careful.

00:28:31.500 Same way we

00:28:32.660 should be very

00:28:33.060 careful, you

00:28:33.880 know, what

00:28:34.120 school you send

00:28:34.740 your kid to,

00:28:35.600 because this

00:28:36.300 stuff is there

00:28:37.200 and is so

00:28:37.540 deeply ingrained

00:28:38.060 in the school

00:28:38.400 system.

00:28:40.300 All right, number

00:28:41.060 three, this is

00:28:41.500 from the New York

00:28:42.380 Post, it says a

00:28:43.080 Texas mom was 0.99

00:28:44.340 arrested for

00:28:45.180 allegedly posing

00:28:46.060 as her 13-year-old

00:28:47.180 daughter for

00:28:47.760 nearly a whole

00:28:48.400 day of middle

00:28:48.940 school.

00:28:49.840 According to a

00:28:50.500 report, Casey

00:28:52.000 Garcia allegedly

00:28:53.400 slipped into the

00:28:54.260 unnamed school in

00:28:55.260 San Elizario,

00:28:57.340 dressed as the

00:28:58.460 teen, as her

00:28:59.020 own daughter,

00:28:59.540 complete with a

00:29:00.000 hoodie, a

00:29:00.420 backpack, and a

00:29:01.020 face mask to

00:29:02.180 prove a point

00:29:02.740 about lax

00:29:03.360 security.

00:29:05.180 During the

00:29:05.680 bizarre stunt,

00:29:06.280 nobody noticed

00:29:06.940 that she wasn't

00:29:07.580 her daughter until

00:29:08.460 the seventh period

00:29:09.380 at the end of the

00:29:09.820 school day.

00:29:10.600 I think we have

00:29:11.220 a clip at the

00:29:14.200 very end of this

00:29:14.800 video she posted

00:29:15.400 on YouTube after

00:29:16.340 she got caught.

00:29:17.000 And so she went

00:29:17.680 through the

00:29:18.860 entire day, this

00:29:19.780 is a grown woman,

00:29:20.720 30 years old, she

00:29:22.360 was at middle

00:29:22.940 school, filming

00:29:24.520 herself the

00:29:25.120 entire day as a

00:29:27.080 30-year-old woman 0.82

00:29:27.660 posing as a

00:29:28.340 student, and

00:29:28.820 nobody caught her 0.98

00:29:29.720 until seventh

00:29:30.760 period, and I

00:29:31.640 think we have

00:29:32.020 that.

00:29:32.280 Let's watch.

00:29:34.080 Well, I finally

00:29:35.100 got caught.

00:29:36.080 I told them that

00:29:36.740 I would go to the

00:29:37.300 principal's office,

00:29:38.160 so I guess we're

00:29:38.740 going to see what

00:29:40.160 happens.

00:29:41.620 Just want to say

00:29:42.320 thank you to all

00:29:43.220 the girls that 0.94

00:29:43.720 helped me get to

00:29:44.460 all of my classes

00:29:45.300 yesterday, I

00:29:46.440 really, really

00:29:47.180 appreciate it.

00:29:47.880 I honestly would

00:29:48.600 have been discovered

00:29:49.280 way sooner if it

00:29:50.320 weren't for you.

00:29:51.160 And if you knew

00:29:52.100 my secret and you

00:29:53.180 kept it for me,

00:29:54.100 thank you so much

00:29:55.280 for not saying

00:29:55.860 anything.

00:29:56.560 I honestly could

00:29:57.480 have not made it

00:29:58.260 the entire day as

00:29:59.740 a middle school

00:30:00.460 student without you.

00:30:02.300 Okay, I'm

00:30:02.860 disappointed.

00:30:03.340 I thought we were

00:30:03.720 going to get a

00:30:04.060 clip of her actually

00:30:05.040 being confronted by

00:30:05.840 the principal.

00:30:07.060 I thought we

00:30:07.620 would get her at 0.72

00:30:08.240 the principal's

00:30:08.720 office being

00:30:09.280 lectured for being

00:30:10.580 30 and not 12

00:30:12.800 as was previously

00:30:14.040 assumed.

00:30:15.300 Um, so a lot

00:30:17.260 of questions come

00:30:18.140 to mind.

00:30:18.580 It's kind of

00:30:19.080 bizarre.

00:30:19.980 I think, I don't

00:30:20.840 know exactly what

00:30:21.540 point, I guess she

00:30:22.120 says her point was

00:30:23.140 it was about the

00:30:24.280 lack of security at

00:30:25.040 the school, which

00:30:25.900 she does expose 1.00

00:30:27.840 that is very

00:30:28.460 concerning that a

00:30:30.300 grown adult who's

00:30:31.420 not a student

00:30:31.940 couldn't hang out

00:30:32.860 there and even in

00:30:34.280 the video she

00:30:34.740 interacts with

00:30:35.380 teachers, talks to

00:30:36.340 them, she goes to

00:30:37.680 her classes, she's

00:30:38.520 sitting in the

00:30:38.860 lunchroom, walk in

00:30:39.880 the hallways and

00:30:40.400 nobody notices.

00:30:41.320 So there is

00:30:41.820 something to be

00:30:42.140 said there about

00:30:42.640 the lack of

00:30:43.060 security.

00:30:43.300 But I think

00:30:44.240 what this is

00:30:44.640 really a story

00:30:45.440 about, it's a

00:30:45.920 story about the

00:30:46.540 face masks that

00:30:49.220 these kids are

00:30:49.780 still in many

00:30:50.680 schools, especially

00:30:51.900 in, where was

00:30:52.500 this, in

00:30:52.720 California, um, in

00:30:54.680 many schools, these

00:30:55.200 kids are still

00:30:55.640 being forced to

00:30:56.180 wear the face

00:30:57.860 masks for no

00:30:59.100 reason.

00:31:00.800 The pandemic is

00:31:01.780 over, by the

00:31:02.660 way.

00:31:03.900 Okay, we, we, we

00:31:04.900 got through it.

00:31:05.460 The pandemic is

00:31:06.320 over and, um, no

00:31:09.900 reason to be wearing

00:31:10.420 the face mask for

00:31:11.400 all the reasons

00:31:12.040 we've discussed.

00:31:14.160 There never really

00:31:15.020 has been a good

00:31:15.740 reason for kids to 0.96

00:31:16.580 wear them, considering

00:31:17.100 kids are not a

00:31:17.660 high-risk group.

00:31:19.300 But they're still

00:31:20.120 forcing kids to

00:31:20.760 wear the face

00:31:21.200 masks.

00:31:22.340 And, um, what

00:31:24.060 that means is that

00:31:24.760 the adults and the

00:31:26.040 teachers and the

00:31:26.660 people that are in

00:31:27.100 charge, they don't

00:31:27.580 even know who

00:31:28.420 these kids are.

00:31:30.880 They can't identify 0.99

00:31:32.080 who any of these

00:31:32.700 people are walking

00:31:33.460 the hallways.

00:31:35.080 That's how you end

00:31:35.660 up with a grown

00:31:36.240 woman sitting in the 0.91

00:31:37.020 classroom all day

00:31:38.780 and nobody notices.

00:31:41.400 What does that

00:31:42.660 tell you about the

00:31:43.120 face mask thing?

00:31:45.420 Think about it.

00:31:46.100 There, there are

00:31:46.800 kids, most of

00:31:50.560 these teachers

00:31:50.980 now, um, don't

00:31:55.000 know what their

00:31:55.700 own students look

00:31:56.740 like.

00:31:58.740 Think about how

00:31:59.360 insane that is.

00:32:01.700 That's why they

00:32:02.320 can't differentiate a

00:32:03.180 student from a

00:32:04.120 30-year-old woman.

00:32:05.760 So I think she did

00:32:06.700 make a valuable

00:32:07.180 point about the

00:32:07.920 face mask.

00:32:08.520 I don't, I don't

00:32:08.920 know if that, if

00:32:09.800 she intended for

00:32:10.440 that to be her

00:32:10.940 primary point, but

00:32:11.700 that's the point

00:32:12.140 she made.

00:32:12.940 All right, before

00:32:13.340 we get to reading

00:32:13.840 the comments, I

00:32:14.300 have to talk about

00:32:14.940 this, uh, because

00:32:16.180 it's, it is a

00:32:17.000 story tailor-made for

00:32:18.460 me in so many ways

00:32:19.220 because it involves

00:32:19.760 TikTok and you know

00:32:20.460 I love TikTok and

00:32:21.680 it also involves

00:32:22.300 beekeeping, um,

00:32:24.140 which, you know,

00:32:25.020 that's a passion of

00:32:26.100 mine, even though I

00:32:26.680 currently right now

00:32:27.300 don't keep any bees

00:32:28.200 because we moved and

00:32:28.840 I couldn't bring the

00:32:29.260 bees with me, but

00:32:29.780 still, I'm a

00:32:30.780 beekeeper in my

00:32:31.560 heart, I think.

00:32:32.660 So this is from

00:32:33.080 NBC News.

00:32:33.720 It says, a

00:32:34.040 TikToker has gone

00:32:35.080 viral for accusing a

00:32:36.300 beekeeping influencer,

00:32:38.200 a beekeeping

00:32:39.380 influencer.

00:32:39.920 I love that that's

00:32:41.280 a title that people

00:32:42.060 have now and that's

00:32:43.620 what I wish.

00:32:44.160 I'm not a blogger,

00:32:45.120 okay, independent.

00:32:46.260 I'm a beekeeping

00:32:47.200 influencer.

00:32:47.820 So next time, make

00:32:48.900 sure you put that in

00:32:49.520 your headline.

00:32:51.120 A TikToker has gone

00:32:51.860 viral for accusing a

00:32:52.640 beekeeping influencer of

00:32:53.780 misleading viewers about

00:32:54.920 how she handles bees and 0.59

00:32:56.320 for promoting bad

00:32:57.480 practices when, when

00:32:59.300 handling a hive.

00:33:00.760 TikTok user LA

00:33:02.400 Honey Bee Rescue claims

00:33:03.740 that Erica Thompson,

00:33:05.240 who goes by Texas Bee

00:33:06.560 Works on TikTok and has

00:33:08.480 six million followers, is

00:33:09.580 improperly handling bees in

00:33:11.120 her videos and setting a

00:33:12.220 dangerous precedent.

00:33:13.120 So this is a, this is a

00:33:15.780 really popular thing on

00:33:16.880 TikTok, apparently.

00:33:17.660 A lot of people watch

00:33:18.260 these beekeeping videos

00:33:19.260 and we'll show you one

00:33:20.860 just as an example.

00:33:21.640 Here's Erica Thompson,

00:33:23.820 very popular beekeeper on

00:33:25.960 TikTok.

00:33:27.240 Had no idea that was a

00:33:28.200 thing, but it is.

00:33:30.220 And let's watch one of the

00:33:32.860 videos and then we'll talk

00:33:33.620 about the problems with it.

00:33:35.120 I got a call to remove bees

00:33:36.760 from one of the weirdest

00:33:37.620 places ever, this toilet.

00:33:39.740 The bees had been living in

00:33:40.700 the tank of this toilet for

00:33:41.880 years and they filled the

00:33:42.940 entire space with comb and

00:33:44.200 had no room left to grow.

00:33:45.820 So I got to work removing

00:33:46.980 the hive.

00:33:47.920 Everything I removed from the

00:33:49.220 original hive was safe for

00:33:50.380 the bees to have in their

00:33:51.260 new home.

00:33:52.320 Here's what the comb looked

00:33:53.320 like.

00:33:53.920 This piece had honey at the

00:33:55.020 top, pollen below, and

00:33:56.460 brood on the bottom.

00:33:57.620 I spent a lot of time

00:33:58.920 carefully removing each piece

00:34:00.200 of comb.

00:34:01.060 This was a happy and

00:34:01.960 healthy colony of honeybees

00:34:03.260 and they were not stinging

00:34:04.140 me at all.

00:34:05.400 After I removed all of the

00:34:06.660 comb, the toilet was still

00:34:07.700 full of bees, which told me

00:34:08.940 the queen was in there. 0.83

00:34:10.360 Suddenly I saw her crawling 1.00

00:34:11.580 up the side of the tank.

00:34:13.000 I put her in a clip to keep 1.00

00:34:14.240 her safe and I placed her in

00:34:15.400 the new hive.

00:34:16.520 Then I made a little bee

00:34:17.660 bridge that led straight to

00:34:18.820 the queen so the bees could

00:34:19.880 easily get to their new

00:34:20.920 hive.

00:34:21.580 It worked and the bees

00:34:22.640 marched right in.

00:34:24.120 After the bees started to

00:34:25.280 recognize the bee box as

00:34:26.480 their new home, I closed up

00:34:28.160 the hive, I waited for the

00:34:29.420 colony to move into the

00:34:30.480 box.

00:34:31.020 Then we drove home and it

00:34:32.180 was another great day of

00:34:33.260 saving the bees.

00:34:34.940 Okay, so she followed good

00:34:36.560 proper protocol there, I

00:34:38.900 will say.

00:34:40.260 And by the way, it would be

00:34:41.980 a hilarious prank for

00:34:45.280 someone to actually sit on

00:34:47.500 that toilet not knowing it's

00:34:48.520 filled with bees.

00:34:49.120 Of course, the toilet's

00:34:49.640 outside and there's bees

00:34:50.540 buzzing all around it, so I

00:34:51.500 guess you'd probably know

00:34:52.280 ahead of time.

00:34:53.740 But there are some

00:34:54.680 problems, okay?

00:34:55.380 Far be it for me to

00:34:55.960 criticize.

00:34:56.740 But she's handling the bees. 1.00

00:34:58.740 She doesn't have any

00:34:59.580 safety equipment on at

00:35:00.780 all.

00:35:02.080 And in fairness, people

00:35:03.120 that are very experienced

00:35:03.760 beekeepers, a lot of times

00:35:04.840 they won't wear all of the

00:35:06.160 equipment.

00:35:07.180 You know, the whole bee

00:35:07.860 keeping suit and all of

00:35:08.760 that, that's beginners will

00:35:10.340 wear all of that.

00:35:11.400 But once you get more

00:35:11.900 comfortable, you don't wear

00:35:12.640 all of the equipment.

00:35:14.200 Because for one thing,

00:35:15.160 bees are very docile,

00:35:16.920 especially if you use the

00:35:17.680 smoker, which makes them

00:35:19.220 even more docile.

00:35:20.520 And as long as you're

00:35:20.980 careful, they probably won't

00:35:21.940 sting you. 0.64

00:35:22.720 And things like the gloves,

00:35:23.740 like a lot of people, you

00:35:24.580 feel like you want to wear the

00:35:25.180 gloves because you're

00:35:25.640 handling bees.

00:35:26.280 But you're doing a lot of

00:35:30.960 sort of fine motor skills and

00:35:32.440 everything, and you're

00:35:33.000 picking things up.

00:35:34.200 And one of the ways to get

00:35:35.160 yourself stung is to drop

00:35:36.280 something and scare the

00:35:37.120 bees.

00:35:37.400 And sometimes the gloves

00:35:38.160 can make it harder to, if

00:35:39.280 you're handling comb or

00:35:40.200 something, or frames, it can

00:35:41.480 make it harder to handle

00:35:42.500 them.

00:35:42.680 So you'll take the gloves

00:35:43.900 off.

00:35:44.060 But she's not wearing any

00:35:45.200 equipment at all.

00:35:48.380 And also, she's wearing dark

00:35:50.320 clothing.

00:35:51.860 And you notice beekeeping

00:35:53.040 suits are always white.

00:35:54.100 Why is that?

00:35:54.600 Because dark clothing, for

00:35:56.580 whatever reason, that ticks

00:35:57.600 off the bees.

00:35:58.220 I think that maybe they

00:35:58.920 confuse you with a predator

00:36:00.100 or bear or something, and

00:36:01.660 they go into attack mode.

00:36:02.720 So that's a no-no.

00:36:03.440 You don't wear dark

00:36:03.920 clothes.

00:36:04.060 She's wearing nothing but

00:36:04.700 dark clothing.

00:36:05.160 And she also has her hair 1.00

00:36:05.960 down, you know, very, and

00:36:08.300 it looks nice and pretty, but

00:36:09.920 the problem is that the bees

00:36:10.780 get caught up in your hair, and

00:36:11.820 then they start stinging your

00:36:12.560 neck and your face and

00:36:13.240 everything.

00:36:14.240 So not proper procedure.

00:36:15.520 And now we have the critic

00:36:18.240 of that beekeeper, and this

00:36:19.780 is where the feud really

00:36:20.680 begins.

00:36:21.020 Let's listen to her

00:36:21.560 criticisms.

00:36:23.540 All right, this is for

00:36:24.620 those of you who had

00:36:25.920 something to say about

00:36:26.820 what I said about Texas

00:36:27.880 Bee Works doing

00:36:28.860 dangerous s***. 0.91

00:36:31.620 This is my job.

00:36:32.920 I do this for a living.

00:36:34.660 And I just had bees get

00:36:38.400 through my hood, sting me

00:36:39.560 all over the face when I

00:36:40.520 was 35 feet up in that

00:36:42.100 tree.

00:36:43.220 And I don't know if you

00:36:45.120 noticed, but Texas Bee 1.00

00:36:46.360 Works doesn't carry

00:36:47.120 ladders.

00:36:47.700 She doesn't carry power 1.00

00:36:48.560 tools.

00:36:49.440 Her husband does all of

00:36:50.660 that.

00:36:51.240 And then, sorry, there's

00:36:53.700 bees crawling up inside my

00:36:55.280 clothes right now.

00:36:57.320 Poses her in situations,

00:36:59.040 not the ones that are at

00:37:00.320 her aviary, apiary rather.

00:37:03.120 That's hers. 0.85

00:37:04.040 She is a beekeeper, but

00:37:05.280 she's not a bee removal 0.95

00:37:06.280 specialist.

00:37:07.620 And a guy in Texas just

00:37:09.540 died by mowing his lawn

00:37:12.380 next to a hollow tree that

00:37:13.760 had an Africanized hive in

00:37:15.020 it.

00:37:15.220 Because in Texas, the

00:37:17.560 bees are much more

00:37:18.740 dangerous than they are

00:37:19.660 here.

00:37:20.160 So what she does is

00:37:21.120 dangerous.

00:37:22.440 There you go.

00:37:24.020 See, if you thought the

00:37:24.700 UFOs was kind of weird and

00:37:27.120 niche content that isn't

00:37:29.000 interesting to a lot of

00:37:30.400 people in the audience, you

00:37:31.840 haven't seen anything yet.

00:37:32.860 Okay?

00:37:33.220 Get me going on bees.

00:37:35.140 And I'm really going to

00:37:36.340 start boring you to death. 0.88

00:37:38.920 But I have to side with the 0.66

00:37:40.460 this is, look, there's a

00:37:41.640 lot of drama in the

00:37:42.280 beekeeping community.

00:37:42.940 People don't realize it.

00:37:44.380 Things can get pretty

00:37:45.180 intense.

00:37:46.860 Even deadly.

00:37:48.040 You never know.

00:37:49.500 But I kind of agree with

00:37:50.540 her criticisms.

00:37:52.000 You know, you don't want

00:37:52.660 to send the wrong message.

00:37:53.520 Although at the same time,

00:37:54.580 you don't want to send the

00:37:55.660 wrong message about

00:37:56.440 improper safety practices.

00:37:58.720 But at the same time, how

00:37:59.680 many people are actually

00:38:00.440 going to be tempted because

00:38:01.920 they watched a TikTok

00:38:02.760 video to go and handle a

00:38:04.560 beehive?

00:38:06.260 People tend to be way more

00:38:07.300 afraid of bees than they

00:38:08.120 should be, which is, which is,

00:38:09.280 that's where people fall.

00:38:10.680 They tend to be more

00:38:11.260 afraid than they should be,

00:38:12.600 which is fine.

00:38:14.560 So I don't know.

00:38:16.480 Maybe we need to talk about

00:38:17.460 it for another 20 minutes

00:38:18.240 and really get to the

00:38:19.180 bottom of this.

00:38:19.800 Or we can move on to

00:38:20.920 reading the YouTube

00:38:21.380 comments.

00:38:22.560 This is from the

00:38:25.160 underdog says, arrest the 0.88

00:38:26.760 criminals, put them in 0.99

00:38:27.400 prison and keep them there 0.99

00:38:28.320 for murderers.

00:38:29.520 Yes.

00:38:29.920 For rapists.

00:38:30.900 Yes.

00:38:31.320 For weed smokers.

00:38:32.480 No.

00:38:33.060 Smoking weed shouldn't be a

00:38:34.280 crime.

00:38:35.580 Well, first of all, you're

00:38:37.140 already getting what you want

00:38:37.880 on that.

00:38:38.300 It's being decriminalized

00:38:39.260 everywhere.

00:38:40.340 Eventually it will be

00:38:41.240 decriminalized literally

00:38:42.220 everywhere in the country.

00:38:43.580 And it's not an issue I've

00:38:45.360 ever cared all that much

00:38:46.280 about.

00:38:47.620 But I guess I tend to agree

00:38:48.960 for the most part.

00:38:54.520 Reluctantly, I feel like I'm

00:38:55.820 forced to agree.

00:38:57.560 My heart wants for weed to

00:39:00.780 remain illegal, but I can't

00:39:02.920 quite intellectually justify it.

00:39:05.080 And I think the argument made

00:39:06.740 by supporters of that

00:39:08.220 position that, well, weed

00:39:10.280 isn't any more dangerous

00:39:11.180 than alcohol.

00:39:11.940 It isn't any more of a social

00:39:13.200 problem than alcohol.

00:39:15.240 In fact, you know, it's more

00:39:16.800 dangerous.

00:39:17.180 It kills a lot more people

00:39:18.080 and alcohol is legal.

00:39:19.220 So how do you justify having

00:39:20.480 this be illegal?

00:39:21.720 I think it's a pretty solid

00:39:22.780 argument.

00:39:23.160 Of course, the argument could

00:39:27.080 go the other way and then you

00:39:27.840 could say, well, okay, let's

00:39:28.700 just make alcohol illegal too.

00:39:30.340 That's not my position to be

00:39:31.440 clear.

00:39:31.940 So I tend to be persuaded by

00:39:34.140 that.

00:39:35.140 Although I also don't think this

00:39:37.140 idea that there were, the way

00:39:39.160 it's been presented by

00:39:40.360 advocates, it's like as if

00:39:41.480 there've just been thousands

00:39:42.460 and hundreds of thousands of

00:39:43.540 people in prison, you know,

00:39:46.740 for years wasting away and all

00:39:49.700 they did was smoke a joint or

00:39:51.100 something.

00:39:51.380 I don't think that was ever

00:39:52.300 quite the case, but I

00:39:54.900 generally would agree with

00:39:55.820 you.

00:39:58.160 Jacob says, LOL, Matt doesn't

00:40:00.080 know the psychoactive chemical

00:40:01.460 and shrooms.

00:40:03.000 Yeah, I don't.

00:40:04.280 Is that an LOL thing?

00:40:05.280 Is that a general thing that

00:40:06.660 most people know?

00:40:08.700 Well, I guess so.

00:40:10.780 Mr. Koo says, hey, Matt, if

00:40:12.200 the alien report comes out when

00:40:13.500 you're on vacation, you may

00:40:14.600 just have to bring back the car

00:40:15.880 podcast.

00:40:16.480 That's a very good idea.

00:40:17.520 And you know what?

00:40:18.080 I promise you if the alien

00:40:20.120 report comes out when I'm on

00:40:21.060 vacation, I will have something

00:40:22.920 to say about it, probably from

00:40:24.920 my car, because we're going to

00:40:26.600 be in a vacation home with a lot

00:40:27.600 of kids and I won't be able to

00:40:28.340 do it there.

00:40:32.220 Another comment says, Matt, if

00:40:33.360 AOC turns down the GoFundMe

00:40:34.760 money, can a portion be donated

00:40:35.980 to my family so we can buy a

00:40:37.440 decent car?

00:40:38.580 My life has been a continuous

00:40:39.660 fight with old automobiles and

00:40:41.080 their endless problems and

00:40:41.980 expenses for years in spite of

00:40:43.300 efforts to maintain them

00:40:44.060 properly.

00:40:44.660 Just thought I'd ask.

00:40:45.620 Well, I appreciate you asking.

00:40:47.460 First of all, you could

00:40:47.960 maybe AOC because she just 0.99

00:40:49.200 bought a Tesla.

00:40:49.800 Maybe she could help you out.

00:40:51.060 Um, I've got a lot of messages

00:40:53.620 like this from people, some more

00:40:55.660 serious than others.

00:40:56.440 I think this is a little bit

00:40:57.140 less serious.

00:40:57.660 I've got a lot of messages for

00:40:59.560 people begging me for the money

00:41:00.780 saying, hey, if AOC doesn't want

00:41:01.820 to please give it to me just so

00:41:03.460 you know, it doesn't work that

00:41:04.480 way with GoFundMe.

00:41:05.840 Even if GoFundMe hadn't shut

00:41:07.260 down the account, you can't raise

00:41:09.700 all the money and then say, yeah,

00:41:10.740 never mind.

00:41:11.080 I'm going to give it over here

00:41:11.700 instead.

00:41:13.040 That was never really an option.

00:41:14.240 What happens is they shut it

00:41:15.160 down and now all the money is

00:41:16.280 refunded and that's it.

00:41:17.440 And we have no control over that.

00:41:18.600 Um, and finally, how are you

00:41:24.500 afraid of spiders but would be

00:41:25.880 excited to see aliens from space

00:41:27.900 come to our planet?

00:41:28.840 Well, because aliens are from

00:41:30.060 space and spiders are from hell.

00:41:32.940 And I think there's a difference

00:41:34.340 there.

00:41:34.580 Now checking in with Rock Auto,

00:41:37.160 you know, I don't, I don't, maybe

00:41:38.260 you'll disagree with me, but my

00:41:39.560 idea of a good time doesn't really

00:41:41.580 involve shopping in any store at

00:41:44.020 all.

00:41:44.540 Um, but, uh, especially not in an

00:41:46.120 auto parts store.

00:41:47.080 If you're having car trouble and

00:41:48.360 you're walking around the auto

00:41:49.240 parts store looking for what you

00:41:50.320 want to find and you're not going

00:41:51.720 to find it, you got to go ask the

00:41:53.260 guy at the desk and then he's

00:41:54.560 going to ask you a bunch of

00:41:55.400 questions about your car that you

00:41:56.520 might not know off the top of your

00:41:57.460 head.

00:41:57.880 Then you're going to feel

00:41:58.360 emasculated and you're going to

00:41:59.480 run out in tears.

00:42:00.540 Okay.

00:42:01.000 It's happened to me many times.

00:42:02.160 Um, just cut out all of that and

00:42:04.700 go to rockauto.com, pull out your

00:42:07.040 phone, rockauto.com always offers

00:42:09.140 the lowest prices possible rather

00:42:10.480 than changing prices based on what

00:42:11.740 the market will bear.

00:42:12.760 And they're a family business.

00:42:13.980 Uh, they've been serving auto

00:42:14.940 parts, customers online for 20

00:42:16.480 years.

00:42:17.180 And so they know really know what

00:42:18.400 they're doing and they know how

00:42:19.060 to set up, uh, you know, a

00:42:20.540 catalog that is extensive, has

00:42:23.040 everything you could possibly want,

00:42:24.080 but also is really easy to

00:42:25.240 navigate.

00:42:26.320 Um, uh, so if you want to, if

00:42:28.960 you, if you have car trouble and

00:42:30.340 you need auto parts, go to

00:42:47.460 uh, you can also get it on the

00:42:49.020 go.

00:42:49.280 I don't know if you knew that

00:42:50.160 whether she's asking Donald

00:42:51.420 Trump, hard hitting questions like

00:42:52.760 hopping on his ticket in 2024,

00:42:54.700 getting Adam Carolla to expose

00:42:55.940 Hollywood conservatives or giving

00:42:57.160 feminism the roast it deserves 1.00

00:42:58.820 with her panel of guests.

00:42:59.720 You're always guaranteed a smart

00:43:01.280 and funny listening experience.

00:43:11.940 your platform of choice happens

00:43:13.620 to be.

00:43:14.060 And if you like what you hear,

00:43:15.060 be sure to leave a five-star

00:43:16.160 review to keep Candace's podcast

00:43:17.540 at the top of the charts.

00:43:18.820 Now let's get to our daily

00:43:19.840 cancellation.

00:43:24.140 Today for our daily

00:43:24.840 cancellation, I have, uh, not so

00:43:26.540 much a specific person to cancel

00:43:27.940 as an attitude.

00:43:29.160 And this begins with a viral

00:43:30.260 tweet thread, which has since

00:43:31.540 been deleted.

00:43:32.060 I'm not going to name the user

00:43:32.980 who put it out there originally

00:43:33.840 because that doesn't matter.

00:43:35.240 It was, it was a random small

00:43:36.440 account, but the content

00:43:38.260 perfectly reflects the attitude

00:43:39.820 that, uh, I want to address.

00:43:41.420 And it's an attitude that's quite

00:43:42.360 common, especially in the younger

00:43:43.360 generation these days.

00:43:44.960 The tweet said, congrats on

00:43:46.780 graduating.

00:43:47.360 What's next?

00:43:48.480 Well, just working a 40 hour

00:43:49.980 work week every week for the rest

00:43:51.720 of my life, being completely

00:43:52.820 unfulfilled and exhausted and

00:43:54.400 only having 6 PM to 11 PM to

00:43:56.100 actually relax and being too

00:43:57.580 exhausted to can be myself and

00:43:59.720 enjoy my hobbies only two days

00:44:01.040 a week.

00:44:02.540 Then she went on with this line

00:44:03.980 of complaint for a while

00:44:05.120 saying how horrible it is that

00:44:06.700 she's now graduated and has to

00:44:08.080 be in the real world, including

00:44:10.060 this part.

00:44:10.620 She said, I've had boomers tell 0.99

00:44:13.260 me manage your time better, get

00:44:15.160 a better schedule, wake up

00:44:16.440 earlier.

00:44:17.400 F you.

00:44:17.920 I'm mentally ill.

00:44:18.980 Time doesn't exist to me.

00:44:21.620 Now I confess I was not

00:44:22.540 previously aware of a mental

00:44:23.800 illness that turns you into a

00:44:25.040 transdimensional being who

00:44:26.460 exists outside of time, but

00:44:28.440 I'm sure that's probably in the

00:44:29.320 DSM somewhere because

00:44:30.380 everything else is.

00:44:31.940 Anyway, this criticism of the

00:44:33.280 standard 9 to 5, 40 hour

00:44:34.700 work week is, as I said,

00:44:36.160 pretty, pretty, pretty

00:44:36.940 standard.

00:44:37.700 It's lots of people, especially

00:44:38.880 younger people feel this way.

00:44:40.440 And I suspect it's one of the

00:44:41.680 reasons that there's a

00:44:42.580 shortage of workers right now,

00:44:44.080 which is crazy when you think

00:44:45.760 about it, because last year we

00:44:46.840 saw a record number of jobs

00:44:48.120 lost.

00:44:49.220 Record number.

00:44:50.120 I mean, millions of people

00:44:51.060 losing their jobs.

00:44:52.340 This year, as things are

00:44:53.520 opening up again, somehow

00:44:55.120 companies are having trouble

00:44:56.340 finding people willing to take

00:44:57.780 the positions they're

00:44:58.500 offering.

00:44:59.840 Now, obviously, that has

00:45:00.500 plenty to do with the fact that

00:45:01.520 our government is paying people

00:45:02.680 to stay home, but it's also

00:45:04.340 indicative of this general

00:45:05.760 idea believed by many people

00:45:07.620 that normal jobs are beneath

00:45:10.180 them, not worth their time.

00:45:12.900 They are owed something more

00:45:14.720 than that, better than that.

00:45:16.600 They don't want to be one of the

00:45:17.680 rubes out there in the rat race, 0.64

00:45:19.340 punching the clock, making a

00:45:20.540 measly paycheck, and so on.

00:45:21.900 Now, to begin with, we should

00:45:26.140 say that 40 hours a week, just

00:45:28.940 so you know, and I don't mean to

00:45:30.600 scare you if you're just getting

00:45:31.960 out of high school or college

00:45:32.900 right now and getting into the

00:45:35.800 working world, 40 hours a week

00:45:37.620 isn't that much.

00:45:38.980 If you only work from 9 to 5 and

00:45:41.560 you don't have to bring your work

00:45:42.660 home with you and you always get

00:45:44.120 your weekends off, then consider

00:45:46.180 yourself blessed.

00:45:48.500 9 to 5, that's the bare minimum

00:45:50.680 in terms of full-time employment.

00:45:52.940 If you worked a few hours fewer

00:45:55.080 than that, it wouldn't even count

00:45:56.580 as a full-time job anymore.

00:45:58.760 So if the horrible grind of having

00:46:00.500 to be at work by 9 a.m. is causing

00:46:02.620 you to break out in hives and

00:46:03.880 tremble with terror, your problem is

00:46:06.100 probably just that you're extremely

00:46:07.460 lazy.

00:46:09.360 Also, it must be said that

00:46:10.820 working a 9 to 5 or an 8 to 6 or,

00:46:14.760 you know, 7 to 7 or whatever your

00:46:17.920 hours are, even if it's in a job

00:46:20.460 you don't feel especially

00:46:21.300 passionate about, is a noble

00:46:23.360 endeavor because you're fulfilling

00:46:24.780 your responsibilities, you're

00:46:26.340 taking care of yourself, and you're

00:46:28.120 taking care of your family.

00:46:29.720 Now, it's great if you can do

00:46:31.200 something for a living that you

00:46:33.240 love, whether that fits into the

00:46:35.320 9 to 5 framework or not, but many

00:46:37.280 people work their whole lives in

00:46:38.440 jobs they don't love.

00:46:40.140 Are they wasting their time?

00:46:42.000 See, we look down on that these

00:46:43.120 days.

00:46:43.320 We say, oh, you shouldn't do

00:46:46.580 something you don't want to do.

00:46:47.820 You're wasting your time.

00:46:48.940 No.

00:46:49.300 I mean, did they squander their

00:46:50.400 human existence by spending so

00:46:51.700 much of it doing something they

00:46:52.600 don't like?

00:46:53.140 No, not at all, because for them,

00:46:55.080 the job is a means to an end.

00:46:57.680 The end is supporting their

00:46:59.160 families and themselves.

00:47:00.860 They might not find a lot of

00:47:01.880 purpose and meaning in the nature

00:47:03.260 of the job itself, but they can

00:47:05.020 find purpose and meaning outside of

00:47:07.020 the job, which is a really good

00:47:09.260 place to look for it, by the way,

00:47:10.460 no matter what you do for a

00:47:11.240 living.

00:47:11.380 And that's perfectly fine and

00:47:13.300 it's meaningful and it's an

00:47:14.360 honorable way to live.

00:47:16.180 To the young people just 1.00

00:47:17.360 graduating who think they're too

00:47:18.800 good, too interesting, too

00:47:20.920 important to punch the clock like

00:47:22.420 everybody else, what I would say

00:47:24.000 is this.

00:47:24.900 Get over yourself, princess.

00:47:26.720 You haven't done anything notable

00:47:28.360 with your life yet.

00:47:29.140 You have no skills.

00:47:30.120 You have no experience.

00:47:31.680 You haven't earned the right to

00:47:33.200 think so highly of yourself.

00:47:35.540 But what about people who, not

00:47:38.020 through a sense of self-importance,

00:47:39.320 but due to their own unique

00:47:40.360 passions and preferences,

00:47:42.060 would simply prefer to do

00:47:43.580 something different with their

00:47:44.460 lives, would like to go a

00:47:45.340 different way rather than

00:47:47.520 becoming an employee for some

00:47:48.860 company and putting in their 40

00:47:50.040 or 50 hours every week?

00:47:51.740 Well, to those people, I say, go

00:47:53.100 for it.

00:47:54.560 Blaze your own trail.

00:47:56.360 Strike out on a different path.

00:47:57.760 Take a risk.

00:47:59.540 Maybe you could start your own

00:48:00.800 business, become an entrepreneur.

00:48:02.640 Maybe you could become a writer.

00:48:03.960 Maybe you could start your own

00:48:04.960 podcast.

00:48:05.520 I have one.

00:48:06.020 It can't be that hard, right?

00:48:07.560 Maybe you could start a self-sustaining

00:48:09.040 farm out in the country.

00:48:11.880 Maybe you, I don't know, become a

00:48:13.300 wildlife photographer or something.

00:48:15.520 I know a guy who left his job and

00:48:17.100 became a fishing guide.

00:48:18.260 So he spends all his time now out in

00:48:19.780 the woods and streams and lakes,

00:48:22.200 fishing and teaching other people

00:48:23.580 about fishing.

00:48:24.640 I mean, he's living the absolute

00:48:25.640 dream.

00:48:27.220 Maybe you could try to do that.

00:48:28.100 Maybe you'd like to travel and

00:48:29.380 figure out a way to earn a living

00:48:30.720 while you do it.

00:48:31.480 I know a few people who've done

00:48:32.440 that.

00:48:33.720 Maybe you burn your social security

00:48:35.000 card and driver's license and set

00:48:36.380 off for Alaska on foot like the guy

00:48:38.040 from Into the Wild.

00:48:39.400 Now, granted, he ended up dying out

00:48:40.780 there, but maybe you'll have better

00:48:41.940 luck or maybe not.

00:48:43.980 Maybe you can become a professional

00:48:45.280 beekeeper and get involved in all

00:48:47.060 that trauma.

00:48:48.620 Maybe you have a real skill in the

00:48:50.100 arts or athletics.

00:48:50.940 I met someone a couple of years ago

00:48:52.260 who goes around making ice sculptures

00:48:55.700 and selling them.

00:48:57.540 Maybe you could do that.

00:48:58.820 There are an endless array of options.

00:49:00.760 You could do almost anything or try to

00:49:02.720 do almost anything anyway.

00:49:03.820 But the chance of failure with any of

00:49:06.780 the options I just listed is very

00:49:08.220 high.

00:49:08.580 In fact, most of the people who do the

00:49:11.120 things I listed or similar things end

00:49:13.140 up failing.

00:49:13.760 It's high risk, high reward.

00:49:15.700 And the cost of failure can be steep.

00:49:18.060 What happens when you find yourself in

00:49:19.700 Vietnam and you realize that nobody

00:49:21.180 cares about the travel blog that was

00:49:22.560 supposed to finance your trip?

00:49:24.480 What happens when you self-publish your

00:49:25.780 novel that you took a year to write and

00:49:27.380 it sells literally 14 copies like most

00:49:29.900 books do, by the way?

00:49:30.980 It could be a disaster, but that's the

00:49:34.820 risk you take and it could be worth the

00:49:36.580 risk.

00:49:37.140 So I say again, go for it.

00:49:38.720 Do it.

00:49:39.240 Try something different.

00:49:40.300 You're young.

00:49:41.000 You have no dependence, presumably.

00:49:43.060 You have only yourself to care for.

00:49:45.180 If things go sideways and you end up

00:49:46.900 sleeping in your car for a few months,

00:49:48.500 well, it's not gonna be fun, but it's

00:49:50.040 doable.

00:49:51.380 So go ahead.

00:49:52.140 Be bold.

00:49:52.640 Be daring.

00:49:53.840 Try to do something with your life where

00:49:56.220 when other people tell, when you tell

00:49:57.880 other people your plans, they look at you

00:50:00.100 sideways and go, okay, you're gonna try

00:50:02.340 to make a living doing that, then maybe

00:50:05.280 actually you do make a living doing it

00:50:07.040 and you get the enjoyment of hearing that

00:50:08.540 same person 10 years from now tell

00:50:10.820 everybody how they always believed in

00:50:12.100 you.

00:50:13.420 Or maybe you fail miserably and you get

00:50:15.840 the enjoyment of hearing that same

00:50:16.820 person say, I told you so.

00:50:19.080 Who knows what will happen, but you never

00:50:20.540 know until you try.

00:50:22.420 But see, all of these alternative paths

00:50:25.220 require work.

00:50:27.120 A whole lot of work.

00:50:29.440 In fact, oftentimes, much more work,

00:50:31.820 much, much more work than the nine to

00:50:33.980 five, which again is not that much work.

00:50:37.320 So you're not getting out of work this

00:50:39.100 way.

00:50:40.220 You may be getting out of having a job,

00:50:43.280 but you don't escape work.

00:50:45.360 There is no escaping work.

00:50:47.740 Life is work.

00:50:49.480 And the problem is that a significant

00:50:51.120 portion of the young people who complain

00:50:52.780 about the nine to five are really

00:50:54.700 complaining about work.

00:50:56.000 They don't want to do any work of any

00:50:58.140 kind at all.

00:50:59.920 They gravitate to socialism because they

00:51:02.100 wish to do nothing.

00:51:03.220 They wish to exert no effort and have all

00:51:06.400 of their needs met.

00:51:07.620 And not just their needs.

00:51:09.440 They want to have all of the material

00:51:11.040 luxuries of life along with it.

00:51:13.140 They're anti-capitalist, anti-work, but

00:51:16.600 still materialist.

00:51:18.320 It is a confused, contradictory, and

00:51:20.600 unsustainable way to be.

00:51:21.980 The dream of living a luxurious,

00:51:25.020 pampered life without work, it's even

00:51:27.760 less realistic than making a living as a

00:51:29.420 traveling ice sculptor.

00:51:31.080 I mean, a few people in the history of

00:51:32.640 the world have lived that way.

00:51:33.880 Children of billionaires and children of

00:51:36.760 royalty, mainly.

00:51:38.080 I mean, that's basically it.

00:51:39.960 But for you, it's probably not an option.

00:51:43.100 And here's the thing.

00:51:44.180 Even if it was, it wouldn't be worth it.

00:51:46.940 You want to talk about a life that's not

00:51:50.700 worth living?

00:51:51.220 A life without work.

00:51:53.040 Some kind of work is not worth living.

00:51:56.660 There's a reason why jackpot lottery

00:51:58.400 winners rarely live happily ever after.

00:52:00.300 You hear these stories.

00:52:01.420 Often they wind up on drugs, divorced,

00:52:03.500 in prison, dead shortly after the big

00:52:06.020 win.

00:52:06.540 They were given all of the material

00:52:07.940 rewards life has to offer, but they

00:52:10.880 hadn't earned any of it.

00:52:12.360 They took the shortcut and made it to the

00:52:14.080 other side.

00:52:14.580 And then when they got there, they had no

00:52:15.740 idea what to do.

00:52:16.400 So they opted for heroin and hookers. 0.97

00:52:19.280 You cannot remove work from your life and

00:52:21.660 yet retain fulfillment and happiness.

00:52:24.100 These are all of a piece.

00:52:26.660 Again, you don't have to work for a

00:52:28.120 company on a payroll in order to be

00:52:29.980 happy, but you have to do some kind of

00:52:32.400 work.

00:52:34.380 The guy from Into the Wild I mentioned,

00:52:36.200 he made it out into the Alaskan

00:52:37.380 wilderness and then he ended up starving

00:52:39.880 to death. 0.75

00:52:41.040 And shortly before he died, he highlighted

00:52:43.040 the words, happiness is only real when

00:52:45.260 shared in a book that was found near his

00:52:47.500 decomposing body.

00:52:48.940 And there's a lot of truth to that.

00:52:51.180 Happiness is only real when shared.

00:52:53.140 And it's the lesson that he learned.

00:52:54.700 But you could just as well say,

00:52:56.040 happiness is only real when earned.

00:52:59.540 So if you want to have a happy and

00:53:00.960 fulfilled life, and that's what everybody

00:53:02.920 wants in the end, then you have to work

00:53:04.820 for it one way or another.

00:53:06.540 And so that is why

00:53:10.080 that random girl on Twitter

00:53:11.760 is canceled.

00:53:14.300 I don't know who else to cancel.

00:53:15.800 We'll get to the end of this thing.

00:53:16.600 So it's just going to be her, I guess,

00:53:17.960 unfortunately.

00:53:19.280 And we'll leave it there for today.
