We're doing something innovative and different.
00:00:08.060
I had this idea where we would do a video where I answered the Internet's most searched questions about me.
00:00:14.560
And the thing I like about it is that it's not in the least bit narcissistic or self-referential at all.
00:00:19.040
I also like to think it's a chance to clear up some misinformation.
00:00:21.880
Because when you're famous, in other words, there's a lot of wrong information about you on there.
00:00:26.120
So every day you go on the Internet and you find another fact about you that isn't correct.
00:00:31.960
And I think it's going to be a handy sort of reference for people who are wondering about any biographical information about me.
00:00:38.060
They can just go to this video and here it is for you laid out in a handy way.
00:00:52.700
I've been married to my lovely wife, Gertrude, for 46 years.
00:01:18.300
We are getting questions for me and for the other Matt Walsh because there's a second Matt Walsh out there, actually.
00:01:25.100
And so I guess we're going to get some of his questions, too.
00:01:27.920
And, you know, something interesting has happened because when I first came on the scene, the other Matt Walsh was like the way more famous Matt Walsh.
00:01:34.160
And so if you went to Google, all the Matt Walsh information was about that Matt Walsh.
00:01:39.620
And I think I've sort of subsumed, I've absorbed all the other Matt Walshes.
00:02:11.500
I'm actually an adherent to the Vajrayana School of Buddhism, which is a thing, I think.
00:02:25.680
I actually send all of my kids to a boarding school in Brazil.
00:02:52.600
I dropped out in first grade and I don't know how to read.
00:03:00.640
We actually have a video, you can check, of me teaching a famous musician how to play the banjo.
00:03:16.360
I said, please get out of the house and get a job, contribute.
00:03:33.140
And they're kind of my children, so I refer to them.
00:03:38.380
And it's the first thing people think about me.
00:03:40.920
Think of, you know, think of when they think of me, I think.
00:03:51.880
I have, in fact, a tramp stamp of the character Alf on my lower back.
00:04:06.060
Well, I invested all of my money last year in NFTs of those monkey, of the monkey NFTs.
00:04:13.600

Well, I just, this one I just had checked at one of those machines at CVS.
00:04:31.060

When you use the bathroom, you always close the door behind you, I would hope, right?
00:04:40.660
Well, you don't want random passers-by to look in on you.
00:04:43.540
So why would you let people look in on what you're doing when you go online?
00:04:47.340
Did you know that your internet service provider knows every single website you visit?
00:04:50.520

00:07:08.840
