00:00:00.000 Now streaming on Paramount Plus.

00:00:02.860 Someone is trying to frame us.

00:00:05.160 Until our names are cleared.

00:00:07.720 We're fugitives from Interpol.

00:00:09.480 Like Bonnie and Clyde with better snacks.

00:00:12.880 Espionage?

00:00:13.560 You still as good a shot as you used to be?

00:00:16.600 Better.

00:00:17.400 Is there love language?

00:00:18.860 We like to walk that fine line between techno-thriller

00:00:21.380 and romantic comedy.

00:00:24.180 We make up our own rules.

00:00:25.940 NCIS Tony and Ziva.

00:00:27.400 Now streaming on Paramount Plus.

00:00:30.660 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show.

00:00:32.540 Your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations.

00:00:42.160 Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly.

00:00:43.920 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show and happy Thursday.

00:00:47.000 For months, one of the biggest stars on the right

00:00:49.320 has been remarkably and very unusually silent.

00:00:53.360 And wow, have we missed his commentary,

00:00:55.100 his humor, his smarts.

00:00:56.940 But today, Steven Crowder is back in action

00:00:59.200 and he's here.

00:01:00.400 He's got big plans for the future of his show,

00:01:02.820 which is very popular and people want to know.

00:01:05.680 We're going to get to that.

00:01:06.480 But we also have a lot of news to get to with him.

00:01:09.260 Steven Crowder is the host of Louder with Crowder.

00:01:13.620 Steven, welcome back to the show.

00:01:14.680 How are you doing?

00:01:15.660 Thank you for having me.

00:01:16.620 You know, I would say I'm doing well,

00:01:17.820 but I'm not physically, mentally great.

00:01:20.820 But physically, I was in Florida.

00:01:22.500 You know, we just announced the relaunch of Muck Club,

00:01:24.360 which I know we'll get to.

00:01:24.900 But I got that red tide.

00:01:27.960 Did you know about that?

00:01:29.020 What's that?

00:01:30.320 See, exactly.

00:01:31.080 Okay, so I don't feel so stupid.

00:01:32.140 Not that you're stupid, but I don't feel so stupid.

00:01:34.320 I was going into the water.

00:01:35.600 It was in Sarasota.

00:01:36.440 That's where Rumble is based.

00:01:37.880 And I was going into the water and I was like,

00:01:39.500 oh man, my throat is scratchy.

00:01:40.840 And I started getting hives.

00:01:42.280 And I had like asthma, you know,

00:01:43.840 sort of attack kind of feeling,

00:01:45.500 which I haven't had since I was a kid.

00:01:46.960 And then I noticed there's no one in the water.

00:01:49.180 And I was going, oh, screw me.

00:01:50.680 That's a lot of dead puffer fish.

00:01:52.620 And then I found out,

00:01:53.860 and I don't know if you've seen a dead puffer fish,

00:01:55.200 but it's really big and it's bloated.

00:01:56.860 Gotta be.

00:01:57.320 And I found out it's red tide.

00:01:58.780 It's an algae that's toxic,

00:02:00.380 but there was no sign.

00:02:02.160 And so I've been coughing and I've had a sore.

00:02:04.280 So just beware that red tide.

00:02:05.720 I had no idea.

00:02:06.360 You know, it's like,

00:02:07.380 if it's not one thing, it's another.

00:02:08.800 I just, I had to go for my annual physical

00:02:10.360 with my doctor.

00:02:11.520 And he wants me to get the shingles vaccine.

00:02:14.540 And I'm like, you know, I'm not sure.

00:02:16.360 Like sometimes people take that

00:02:17.640 and it brings on weird symptoms,

00:02:18.880 but have you ever seen somebody with shingles?

00:02:22.160 You can get shingles on your eyeball.

00:02:24.920 You can get it on the end of your nose.

00:02:27.200 It's painful.

00:02:28.160 It's unsightly.

00:02:29.140 So I'm like, maybe I do have to get this shingle.

00:02:31.740 I mean, things start falling apart

00:02:32.880 after like 45, basically.

00:02:34.760 Well, first off,

00:02:35.220 your doctor must be thrilled

00:02:36.340 to conduct those physicals.

00:02:37.580 Second, I didn't know that Richard Painter,

00:02:39.940 remember Dumpster Fire had shingles

00:02:41.500 before I did a parody of him

00:02:42.740 and then get people saying,

00:02:43.740 hey, he has shingles.

00:02:44.400 I was like, well, what's done is done.

00:02:46.980 Well, I'll let you know if I get it

00:02:50.120 and how it goes.

00:02:51.120 Good.

00:02:51.440 Because last thing I need is a shingle in my eye.

00:02:54.200 And it was like,

00:02:54.680 it was bad enough when I had my LASIK done.

00:02:56.980 I'll never have glasses off my face again.

00:02:59.620 All right.

00:02:59.840 Speaking of people who have seen better days physically,

00:03:02.080 John Fetterman.

00:03:02.900 Now, I know you've been sort of

00:03:04.000 launching your new business,

00:03:05.420 which we'll talk about and all that.

00:03:06.480 But while you've been focused on that, Stephen,

00:03:08.960 John Fetterman, newly elected U.S. senator,

00:03:10.920 went into the hospital at Walter Reed.

00:03:12.840 First, it was lightheadedness, they said.

00:03:15.660 Something was wrong following the stroke.

00:03:18.000 Then it turned into, oh, he's got to go back in

00:03:20.040 for an undetermined amount of time for depression.

00:03:22.480 Nothing wrong with that.

00:03:23.400 A lot of people suffer from depression.

00:03:24.740 But his team has been playing a little,

00:03:28.580 like, hide the salami

00:03:29.860 on what his actual physical condition is for a long time.

00:03:34.280 I'm saying, wait, I don't think you're,

00:03:35.960 is Megan fully aware of what hide the salami means?

00:03:38.480 I don't know.

00:03:39.480 No.

00:03:40.900 Well, that's probably not what you think.

00:03:44.100 But hey, you know what?

00:03:44.920 I'm sure he's doing it.

00:03:45.740 Those, you have a bunch of crazy people in those wards

00:03:47.560 and they get busy.

00:03:48.600 I mean, the highest STD rate in the country

00:03:50.000 is ladies in old folks' homes.

00:03:51.660 Did you know that?

00:03:52.780 That's true.

00:03:53.740 The highest, those old birds get around.

00:03:55.560 I mean, slowly, but they make their way.

00:03:57.180 But yes, no, I've heard of this.

00:04:01.620 With Fetterman, here's the thing.

00:04:03.640 He hasn't been transparent.

00:04:04.700 So he's back.

00:04:05.220 But I want to tell you that today,

00:04:07.180 courtesy of the Washington Post,

00:04:08.960 oh, sorry, New York Times, Annie Carney,

00:04:11.000 who really is just like his stenographer.

00:04:12.900 It's crazy how fawning her pieces are over him.

00:04:16.040 She wants us to know it's all going swimmingly

00:04:19.220 in Walter Reed.

00:04:20.000 He hasn't missed a step, Stephen.

00:04:21.480 He is in a cheerfully decorated common room

00:04:24.020 with floral paintings adorning violet walls.

00:04:27.200 He begins most of his days

00:04:28.120 meeting with his chief of staff,

00:04:29.680 carrying a briefcase full of newspaper clips,

00:04:31.640 statements for him to approve,

00:04:32.620 legislation to review,

00:04:33.680 and other business,

00:04:34.720 and goes on and on and on

00:04:36.060 about he's made the wise decision

00:04:37.480 to eschew exposure to cable television,

00:04:40.460 internet, and social media,

00:04:42.500 and that he is firing off legislation

00:04:44.520 and making decisions on farm bills

00:04:46.020 and so on day after day.

00:04:48.100 And yay, this is something

00:04:49.680 we should all be celebrating

00:04:51.120 that he is there and so open

00:04:53.480 and has been more transparent

00:04:55.100 than any senator ever

00:04:56.160 who struggle with mental health.

00:04:57.500 What do you make of it?

00:04:58.920 Well, I wouldn't be surprised

00:05:00.000 if he wakes up wearing,

00:05:01.060 you know, wearing an Enrique Iglesias beanie

00:05:02.840 and his wife returns from Canada

00:05:04.280 holding a pillow over his face.

00:05:06.260 So I don't know how this,

00:05:07.760 look, here's the thing.

00:05:08.580 Like you said,

00:05:09.100 and I've talked about having struggled

00:05:10.240 with, you know,

00:05:10.760 issues like depression in the past.

00:05:12.900 My heart goes out to him,

00:05:14.300 but it's relevant,

00:05:14.940 just like with Joe Biden.

00:05:16.460 It's relevant if he's not fit for office.

00:05:18.500 And of course,

00:05:18.980 just like with the Wuhan lab,

00:05:20.440 right?

00:05:20.680 Leak theory.

00:05:21.200 Everyone said,

00:05:21.520 that's racist.

00:05:22.200 You're going,

00:05:22.400 hold on a second.

00:05:23.160 This has nothing to do

00:05:23.680 with the people of China.

00:05:24.760 We're talking about

00:05:25.440 the Chinese government.

00:05:26.480 It's the same thing

00:05:27.260 with Fetterman,

00:05:27.800 with Biden.

00:05:28.560 We're not saying

00:05:29.660 that someone who has mental issues

00:05:31.900 or might be suffering

00:05:32.580 from some kind of

00:05:33.540 neurodegenerative disease

00:05:34.380 is a bad person,

00:05:35.080 but it is relevant

00:05:35.880 for someone who has to make

00:05:37.400 a lot of executive decisions.

00:05:38.520 And when Fetterman was running,

00:05:39.880 people were saying,

00:05:40.500 hey, you know what?

00:05:41.040 This guy might not be fit.

00:05:42.640 And everyone said,

00:05:43.440 that's a low blow.

00:05:45.060 That's getting personal.

00:05:46.640 That's an unfair attack.

00:05:48.320 And I think now we see

00:05:49.540 that it's relevant.

00:05:50.520 And hey, I don't know.

00:05:51.940 We can't know

00:05:52.580 because the media is,

00:05:53.940 as you said,

00:05:54.300 running interference for him.

00:05:55.700 This reporter at New York Times,

00:05:56.980 I mean, Carney is in the name.

00:05:58.400 I don't know.

00:05:58.900 Last name could be,

00:05:59.840 like first name Snake,

00:06:00.720 last name Oil Salesman.

00:06:02.260 I just,

00:06:03.080 we can't know the truth.

00:06:04.540 We cannot know the truth.

00:06:05.880 That's right.

00:06:06.100 And it is relevant.

00:06:07.420 And I hope if people

00:06:08.400 have learned nothing

00:06:09.940 these last few years,

00:06:10.840 and I apologize from scratch,

00:06:11.860 again, it's the red tide,

00:06:12.960 maybe some mad cow.

00:06:14.080 I hope if people have,

00:06:15.200 if they've learned one thing

00:06:16.040 these last few years,

00:06:16.720 it's don't allow yourself

00:06:18.040 to be silenced

00:06:18.900 through those modes of attack.

00:06:20.780 No, the Wuhan lab theory

00:06:21.700 was not racist.

00:06:22.940 No, hold on a second.

00:06:23.660 Questioning the CDC,

00:06:24.680 questioning Fauci,

00:06:25.500 the highest paid

00:06:26.240 unelected official,

00:06:27.520 is not anti-science.

00:06:28.840 No, no.

00:06:29.120 Saying that Fetterman

00:06:29.940 has had strokes

00:06:30.680 and seems to be speaking

00:06:31.800 in a way that is inarticulate

00:06:33.320 and in some cases unintelligible,

00:06:35.080 and this is back then,

00:06:36.580 no, that's not saying

00:06:37.640 that you hate people

00:06:38.920 who've had strokes.

00:06:40.140 These are relevant points of data.

00:06:42.440 And we need to,

00:06:43.000 look,

00:06:43.200 we need to look at those vectors

00:06:44.200 when we're talking about someone

00:06:45.240 holding elected office.

00:06:47.380 And for some,

00:06:47.920 you know,

00:06:48.060 people on the left,

00:06:48.780 they value experience so much.

00:06:50.720 And by that,

00:06:51.160 they mean career politicians,

00:06:52.280 right?

00:06:52.920 That was a big attack

00:06:53.580 they used against Donald Trump.

00:06:54.580 Well, he has no experience

00:06:55.440 in office.

00:06:56.240 But you don't think

00:06:57.880 being mentally fit,

00:06:59.360 physically fit,

00:07:00.060 just being capable

00:07:01.180 on the same level

00:07:02.800 that the average American,

00:07:03.960 you don't think

00:07:04.380 that's relevant?

00:07:05.100 You think it's more relevant

00:07:06.020 that they've suckled

00:07:06.660 at the government teat

00:07:07.520 for 20, 30,

00:07:09.080 in Biden's case,

00:07:09.940 50-something years?

00:07:11.740 It's a fundamentally different way

00:07:13.180 of viewing the world.

00:07:14.080 And I wish,

00:07:15.060 and I pray for Fetterman

00:07:16.420 to heal up.

00:07:17.800 I hope that he's well.

00:07:18.500 I wouldn't wish depression

00:07:19.280 on my worst enemy.

00:07:20.660 But it doesn't seem like

00:07:22.480 he's ready to do this job.

00:07:23.480 It doesn't seem like

00:07:23.900 he was ready to do this job.

00:07:25.300 And I do think

00:07:26.240 it's also a lesson

00:07:26.820 to Republicans.

00:07:27.600 Don't run the,

00:07:29.360 well,

00:07:29.640 not crazy.

00:07:30.320 Dr. Oz wasn't crazy.

00:07:31.120 He's not crazy.

00:07:31.640 But he was a bad candidate.

00:07:32.440 That's all I'll say.

00:07:33.300 Don't run the crudité

00:07:34.480 loving candidate

00:07:35.780 in a state like Pennsylvania.

00:07:37.340 So the thing about Fetterman

00:07:38.100 is they're now,

00:07:39.140 you know,

00:07:39.480 now they say,

00:07:40.540 oh,

00:07:41.180 his decision to rush back

00:07:42.500 to the campaign trail

00:07:43.440 really set back his recovery.

00:07:45.300 We know.

00:07:46.180 Those of us

00:07:46.680 who are watching this race

00:07:47.600 said,

00:07:48.200 what are they doing?

00:07:49.000 This is cruel.

00:07:49.800 They're just propping the guy up.

00:07:51.060 They're shoving him back out there.

00:07:52.200 Oh, you're an ableist.

00:07:53.420 You're an ableist.

00:07:54.540 Well, now they admit it

00:07:55.980 in this fawning piece

00:07:57.140 where they're,

00:07:57.860 I mean,

00:07:58.220 you've got to read it

00:07:58.760 because they would never write

00:07:59.640 like this about a Republican

00:08:00.500 going through this.

00:08:01.500 They talk about,

00:08:02.140 and they actually have a quote

00:08:03.060 from his chief of staff.

00:08:04.100 We were honest with people

00:08:04.980 about what's going on.

00:08:05.900 We put it out there.

00:08:06.740 No, you did not put it out there.

00:08:08.660 And even the mental health problems

00:08:10.220 were hidden from us

00:08:11.200 until he had to be checked in

00:08:12.640 for severe depression

00:08:14.200 for an indeterminate amount of time.

00:08:16.340 And now they tell us the following.

00:08:18.860 The strict regimen he's on

00:08:19.980 may be working.

00:08:20.800 People around Mr. Fetterman

00:08:21.740 have said

00:08:22.140 they've noticed a palpable difference

00:08:23.920 in him in recent days.

00:08:25.180 His sense of humor has returned.

00:08:27.320 He is more sociable,

00:08:28.640 sharing with the nurses

00:08:29.580 some of the sweets

00:08:30.480 that have been sent to him

00:08:31.500 by fellow senators.

00:08:32.840 And then they go on to say,

00:08:33.940 just in case you weren't sure,

00:08:34.960 it's really not a thing

00:08:37.220 if a senator has no faculties

00:08:38.980 about him

00:08:39.400 because his staff

00:08:40.180 does everything anyway.

00:08:41.180 Here's from deep in the piece.

00:08:44.120 It is not unusual

00:08:45.240 for lawmakers to be told

00:08:46.600 by members of their staff,

00:08:47.740 sometimes after the fact,

00:08:48.960 what bills they're co-sponsoring.

00:08:50.640 With the exception of calls

00:08:51.760 to cabinet officials

00:08:52.600 or meetings

00:08:53.420 with the chief executives

00:08:54.280 of companies

00:08:54.800 that are important to their states,

00:08:55.900 there are few meetings

00:08:57.320 that cannot be handled

00:08:58.500 by senior staff.

00:09:00.160 They go on to quote

00:09:00.760 somebody as saying,

00:09:01.460 even with a senator sidelined,

00:09:03.820 a Senate office,

00:09:04.680 particularly under

00:09:05.400 an experienced chief of staff,

00:09:07.260 would run pretty much

00:09:08.420 in a normal way.

00:09:10.020 Who needs John Fetterman

00:09:11.680 after all?

00:09:12.420 I feel like you get a kick

00:09:13.680 out of enraging me, Megan.

00:09:15.060 I feel like you read that

00:09:16.100 for slightly longer

00:09:17.020 than you needed to

00:09:17.840 so that the seething

00:09:18.800 that's bubbling beneath the surface

00:09:20.380 would find its way up.

00:09:21.820 I don't know what you've missed.

00:09:23.360 I want to make sure

00:09:24.040 I give you all the goodies.

00:09:26.000 No, you're right.

00:09:26.700 Oh, he campaigned too quickly,

00:09:28.680 so that made it hard for him.

00:09:29.520 So doing his job

00:09:31.040 made it hard for him

00:09:32.040 to do his job?

00:09:33.120 That'd be like saying,

00:09:33.700 you know, Usain Bolt,

00:09:35.060 really, he would have won that race

00:09:36.560 if he didn't have to do

00:09:37.360 so much running up to it.

00:09:40.000 I mean, yeah,

00:09:41.120 campaigning is part of your job.

00:09:42.660 Campaigning is part of your job.

00:09:44.060 And maybe he does have depression.

00:09:45.580 Maybe there's something else going on.

00:09:47.160 Again, you read that to me.

00:09:48.700 I don't care that he's sharing

00:09:50.560 his Sherry's berries

00:09:51.680 with the nurse practitioner.

00:09:53.680 I couldn't give less of a shit.

00:09:55.500 Okay?

00:09:55.880 And I know you gave up

00:09:56.640 cussing for Lent,

00:09:57.640 and so I try and avoid it too.

00:09:59.120 But really,

00:09:59.680 this is one of those situations

00:10:00.940 where the media

00:10:01.620 is again running interference.

00:10:04.080 And this is why I know

00:10:04.700 we'll get to it,

00:10:05.280 but you know,

00:10:05.700 we're talking about Mug Club

00:10:06.820 and the network that I'm building.

00:10:07.800 I have a problem

00:10:08.340 not only with the media,

00:10:09.120 but I have a problem

00:10:09.620 with the conservative,

00:10:10.380 the right wing,

00:10:10.960 the Republican lackeys

00:10:11.780 also placing greater importance

00:10:14.240 on going to cocktail parties

00:10:17.140 with these people.

00:10:17.820 And you know this,

00:10:18.640 and I know this.

00:10:19.560 It is an incestuous cesspool

00:10:22.440 of filth and sadness

00:10:24.320 where dreams go to die.

00:10:25.280 My problem is not with Fetterman.

00:10:27.740 It is with Fetterman,

00:10:28.780 I should say.

00:10:29.360 But you know,

00:10:29.820 you can't be mad

00:10:30.720 at a snake for biting you

00:10:31.960 at a pet snake for biting you.

00:10:32.880 My problem is with the people

00:10:33.860 who present themselves

00:10:34.540 as lambs and they're wolves,

00:10:35.860 they're wolves in sheep's clothing,

00:10:37.240 whether that's the leftist media

00:10:38.480 or people on the right

00:10:39.480 who don't fight back enough.

00:10:40.580 There are people on the right

00:10:41.360 who said it was an unfair attack

00:10:42.740 to bring up Fetterman's,

00:10:44.720 you know,

00:10:44.960 bring up his mental fitness.

00:10:46.160 The same thing with Joe Biden.

00:10:47.720 Why?

00:10:48.420 We all know.

00:10:49.320 We all know that's the case.

00:10:50.520 For crying out loud,

00:10:51.220 it was a comedic witch hunt,

00:10:52.320 right,

00:10:52.500 with George W. Bush

00:10:53.600 for eight years

00:10:54.780 because he mispronounced

00:10:55.660 nuclear.

00:10:57.040 Yeah,

00:10:57.540 that's right.

00:10:58.380 And look what they did to Trump

00:10:59.540 when his hand was wobbling.

00:11:01.880 What?

00:11:02.240 Remember when Trump

00:11:02.820 had the watery hand

00:11:03.740 when he was holding,

00:11:04.280 or the wobbly hand

00:11:05.680 when he was holding the water

00:11:06.420 and when he went down

00:11:07.220 that one icy ramp carefully?

00:11:09.340 They spent days speculating

00:11:10.560 about his physical health

00:11:11.500 and his mental health.

00:11:12.500 But you're not allowed

00:11:13.260 to talk about Fetterman

00:11:14.220 who's like,

00:11:14.940 he has pretended

00:11:15.780 that he didn't have this problem

00:11:16.860 until it gets revealed

00:11:17.880 he's impatient.

00:11:19.180 And can I ask you,

00:11:19.820 how about the wife?

00:11:20.580 Because the wife,

00:11:21.920 according to this article,

00:11:22.840 like she posted,

00:11:23.640 I had the Ruthless guys

00:11:24.380 on a couple weeks ago

00:11:25.280 and we were talking about

00:11:25.800 how she went off to Canada.

00:11:28.000 I mean,

00:11:28.300 think about it.

00:11:29.060 Like her spouse is hospitalized.

00:11:31.300 He can't see his wife.

00:11:32.180 He can't see his kids.

00:11:33.300 The house goes off to Canada

00:11:34.460 and zip lines with the kids.

00:11:35.880 Okay,

00:11:36.240 maybe they're trying

00:11:36.800 to get a getaway.

00:11:37.680 But she films it all,

00:11:38.700 puts it on Insta.

00:11:39.620 Yo,

00:11:39.980 living our best lives.

00:11:41.320 And then the report today says

00:11:43.300 she does visit him

00:11:44.900 at least once a week.

00:11:47.540 But really,

00:11:48.300 it's his staff

00:11:49.020 that comes to see him

00:11:49.960 in the hospital.

00:11:51.500 Oh,

00:11:51.660 is it her staff?

00:11:52.300 Was that confirmed?

00:11:53.760 His staff.

00:11:54.460 So she goes to see him

00:11:55.460 once a week.

00:11:56.300 But it's really just his staff

00:11:57.640 that comes to see him.

00:11:58.740 His small circle

00:11:59.740 has mostly been limited

00:12:01.100 to two staff aides

00:12:02.720 and sometimes his family.

00:12:04.020 And that's sad.

00:12:04.880 You know what?

00:12:05.180 That makes my heart

00:12:06.280 break for this guy.

00:12:07.100 I don't know what's going on

00:12:08.140 in his family life.

00:12:09.360 I hope that his marriage

00:12:10.660 is going well.

00:12:11.460 And yeah,

00:12:12.120 I think it's obviously

00:12:13.160 incredibly insensitive

00:12:14.480 for his wife to do.

00:12:15.080 I also understand

00:12:15.660 that it's in closer proximity

00:12:16.840 that some people in the media

00:12:17.980 have led on to believe.

00:12:18.760 I believe she's just

00:12:19.340 kind of across Niagara Falls

00:12:20.680 area, something like that,

00:12:22.200 upstate New York.

00:12:23.080 But this is just,

00:12:24.520 I mean, what about the,

00:12:25.880 they don't even,

00:12:26.520 they don't concern themselves

00:12:27.520 with the optics

00:12:28.200 at that point?

00:12:29.060 I mean, does she not realize

00:12:30.160 that it looks bad

00:12:31.160 when you flee the country

00:12:32.780 and your husband

00:12:33.360 is going to inpatient care?

00:12:35.380 Yeah, when he's depressed,

00:12:37.420 especially when he's depressed.

00:12:38.640 It's like, that's,

00:12:39.260 that's when you need the people,

00:12:40.600 your support system.

00:12:41.400 That's what you need,

00:12:41.920 your support system around you.

00:12:42.900 Maybe you,

00:12:43.300 maybe you come by with a kid

00:12:44.280 for a visit.

00:12:45.060 He's at Walter Reed.

00:12:45.800 I mean, like it is far.

00:12:47.000 Niagara Falls is far

00:12:47.840 from Walter Reed.

00:12:49.980 I don't, if it were me

00:12:51.120 and Doug were in the hospital,

00:12:52.520 I'd be there.

00:12:53.380 I'd be making fun of him.

00:12:54.780 I'd be bringing

00:12:55.460 his favorite movies.

00:12:56.740 I'd be putting on

00:12:57.460 Marathons of Arthur.

00:12:58.700 That's what Doug loves.

00:12:59.560 He would put on Wonka

00:13:00.520 and My Cousin Vinny for me.

00:13:01.820 I don't know,

00:13:02.100 what would I be putting

00:13:02.680 on your TV screen

00:13:03.900 if you needed to pick me up?

00:13:05.660 Well, I'm sure,

00:13:06.540 I'm sure that when you,

00:13:07.920 every single doctor

00:13:08.600 would be looking

00:13:08.980 to give you another physical,

00:13:09.960 but do you mean Arthur

00:13:10.540 the Dudley Moore Arthur

00:13:11.660 or Russell Brand Arthur?

00:13:13.300 Yes, yes.

00:13:13.820 Yeah, that's one of my favorite

00:13:15.120 films of all time.

00:13:16.200 It's great.

00:13:16.800 Are you a hooker?

00:13:17.920 I just thought

00:13:18.520 I was doing well with you.

00:13:20.340 That's always an excuse.

00:13:21.680 No, I love,

00:13:22.480 it's one of my favorite

00:13:23.200 top three all time.

00:13:24.140 I think it's the perfect comedy.

00:13:25.320 I don't think that it gets

00:13:26.220 much better than Arthur.

00:13:27.120 That would be on there.

00:13:27.640 Everything you just named

00:13:28.280 would be on there.

00:13:28.800 I'd probably add Slapshot,

00:13:30.260 the film The Edge.

00:13:31.680 Yeah, I think that sounds

00:13:33.640 like you're a good woman

00:13:34.360 and he should hang on to you.

00:13:35.880 So, you know,

00:13:36.220 hopefully you just don't,

00:13:37.120 you don't out earn him

00:13:38.000 because the stats on that

00:13:38.920 aren't good.

00:13:41.320 It's funny, you know,

00:13:42.040 I once told Doug that Dr. Laura,

00:13:44.000 you know, she's on SiriusXM

00:13:45.120 Triumph Channel 2

00:13:45.860 and I love her.

00:13:46.800 She's like,

00:13:47.360 just no bullshit.

00:13:48.240 You know, she gives it

00:13:48.760 to you straight.

00:13:49.960 She has, she does,

00:13:51.360 she talks about how,

00:13:52.720 you know,

00:13:53.160 it can be tough

00:13:54.000 on some relationships

00:13:54.880 where the woman

00:13:55.800 is the primary wage

00:13:56.940 and earn the man makes less.

00:13:58.860 And Doug and I

00:14:00.520 talked about this.

00:14:00.980 When we first got together,

00:14:01.640 he made more money than I did,

00:14:02.600 but now obviously

00:14:03.180 the situation got reversed

00:14:04.240 and he was like,

00:14:06.580 because, you know,

00:14:07.040 Dr. Laura is very successful.

00:14:09.120 She's been like

00:14:09.660 the number one radio host

00:14:10.480 for years and years

00:14:10.900 and he's like,

00:14:11.920 what, is she married

00:14:13.620 to like somebody

00:14:14.660 with the last name Jobs

00:14:15.840 or Rockefeller?

00:14:16.720 Because like,

00:14:17.080 how did she find a partner

00:14:18.740 who's making more than she is?

00:14:20.420 She lost her spouse years ago.

00:14:21.780 But the point is,

00:14:22.540 I understand the dynamic.

00:14:24.260 It can be kind of awkward

00:14:25.160 if you're with somebody

00:14:26.260 who's like not earning

00:14:27.820 as much as you

00:14:28.320 if they're leaving.

00:14:28.940 No, I'm just talking about

00:14:29.640 that statistically.

00:14:30.520 It's true.

00:14:31.380 You know, like now in this country,

00:14:32.540 it's 80% of divorces

00:14:33.480 are filed by women

00:14:34.100 and 90% of they have

00:14:34.900 a college degree.

00:14:35.820 And that's why, you know,

00:14:36.340 this new stat just came out

00:14:37.440 that young men

00:14:38.280 are more single than ever.

00:14:39.620 But, you know,

00:14:39.900 Dr. Laura, it's funny.

00:14:41.060 I didn't have AM radio

00:14:42.080 when I grew up

00:14:42.680 and I didn't have Fox News.

00:14:43.760 You know, I grew up in Canada,

00:14:44.760 but we did have Dr. Laura

00:14:46.260 and I used to listen to her

00:14:47.640 on one of my,

00:14:48.140 one of my,

00:14:48.940 I had a Discman,

00:14:49.960 the old Panasonic G-Shock,

00:14:51.900 right?

00:14:52.040 With the anti-skip technology,

00:14:53.960 which meant it still skipped,

00:14:55.400 but for some reasons

00:14:56.080 it gave you like 40 seconds

00:14:57.420 of, I don't know.

00:14:57.880 And I had Shuffle,

00:14:58.600 so there was a good chance

00:14:59.360 and I didn't know

00:14:59.880 which of the nine songs

00:15:01.240 were coming up,

00:15:01.920 so that was a lot of fun.

00:15:02.820 But I also had a radio on there

00:15:04.200 and I would listen to Dr. Laura

00:15:06.540 and I remember just sitting there

00:15:08.340 when people would call in to her

00:15:10.120 and for people who don't know,

00:15:10.960 right, she's a relationship

00:15:11.680 advice kind of expert

00:15:13.000 and she's very traditional

00:15:14.320 and women would call in

00:15:15.440 and say, you know,

00:15:16.260 my boyfriend,

00:15:17.420 I'm just wondering

00:15:18.820 why he doesn't want to marry me.

00:15:20.160 We've been together

00:15:20.520 for five years.

00:15:21.520 We've been living together

00:15:22.120 for two.

00:15:22.700 And I'm sitting there going,

00:15:23.520 do you know who you're calling?

00:15:24.780 She's about to call you a whore.

00:15:26.180 Like, there's no other way this ends.

00:15:29.680 I always wonder, like,

00:15:30.240 why are you calling into this show?

00:15:32.260 And then I would have that

00:15:32.980 when I was syndicated on radio

00:15:34.180 where people would call in.

00:15:35.420 I'm like, do you know

00:15:35.960 what show you're calling into?

00:15:37.000 Do you have any idea

00:15:37.620 how badly you're about

00:15:38.500 to be raked over the coals

00:15:39.760 when you're endorsing Bernie Sanders?

00:15:41.780 And it's just,

00:15:42.240 a lot of people cannot be bothered

00:15:43.900 to do a modicum of research.

00:15:45.180 And that's exactly how you end up

00:15:46.380 with Fetterman in office

00:15:47.260 or former Vice President Biden.

00:15:50.020 Although I completely agree

00:15:51.460 with everything you just said.

00:15:52.200 She's so funny.

00:15:52.880 So one of the things

00:15:53.540 I admire about her

00:15:54.300 is sometimes you take callers

00:15:56.200 and usually they're smart

00:15:58.500 and they're quick

00:15:58.920 and they make their point

00:15:59.500 and they get up and down

00:16:00.040 and move along.

00:16:00.900 Some go on and on and on.

00:16:02.820 And I'm too much of a bleeding heart.

00:16:04.520 Like, I kind of let them ramble

00:16:05.560 a little too long.

00:16:06.640 Dr. Laura, oh my God,

00:16:08.060 if you ramble on her show,

00:16:09.440 I mean, she will cut a bitch.

00:16:10.960 And it's happened to me on her show.

00:16:12.940 It's happened to other callers.

00:16:13.820 Well, one time I was listening to her

00:16:14.940 and this woman calls in.

00:16:16.540 It was this, like, kind of sad

00:16:18.480 but also uplifting story

00:16:19.900 at the same time

00:16:20.440 where the woman's like,

00:16:21.480 I called you five years ago

00:16:23.340 after the death of my child.

00:16:25.460 You were the one

00:16:26.160 who gave me the advice

00:16:26.880 that helped me through.

00:16:27.740 Nobody could help me but you.

00:16:29.320 And it changed my life.

00:16:31.160 And she's going,

00:16:31.920 and Dr. Laura's like,

00:16:33.700 madam, what's your point?

00:16:35.600 Right.

00:16:36.680 Yeah.

00:16:38.160 Then she dropped the N-bomb.

00:16:39.480 You're like,

00:16:39.620 that doesn't need to be done here.

00:16:41.060 What's going on?

00:16:42.200 No, no.

00:16:42.640 And by the way,

00:16:43.100 for those who don't know,

00:16:43.760 that was how she lost her career

00:16:45.200 on radio where she was quoting.

00:16:46.760 She was talking about

00:16:47.160 how she tuned into BET

00:16:48.080 and she heard the N-word repeatedly

00:16:49.440 and she used the word

00:16:50.320 in that context.

00:16:51.560 And she was fired as a racist,

00:16:52.740 one of the original people

00:16:53.620 who was canceled.

00:16:54.260 Meanwhile, my home country,

00:16:55.300 we have Prime Minister Blackface

00:16:56.400 who's done it 15 times.

00:16:58.100 This is the issue, right,

00:16:59.120 is the weaponizing of information.

00:17:01.220 This is the theme that we're seeing,

00:17:02.260 the weaponizing of information.

00:17:03.600 You can pick how

00:17:05.040 and when you want to be offended.

00:17:06.540 And the left does that brilliantly.

00:17:08.180 So they were very offended

00:17:09.160 at the idea of questioning

00:17:10.840 Fetterman's mental fitness.

00:17:12.180 They were very offended

00:17:13.040 at the idea that,

00:17:14.160 hey, the Communist Chinese Party

00:17:16.360 might be corrupt

00:17:17.280 and might be lying

00:17:18.060 about the COVID origin.

00:17:19.060 So they decided

00:17:19.480 to label people racist.

00:17:20.540 Some people lost their careers,

00:17:22.080 lost their contributorships

00:17:23.100 for suggesting

00:17:23.640 what we now know to be true

00:17:24.860 by every available

00:17:26.200 intelligence agency.

00:17:27.480 And Dr. Laura lost her career.

00:17:29.640 And by that,

00:17:30.220 I mean, she was taken off radio.

00:17:31.120 Of course,

00:17:31.280 she's doing far better right now,

00:17:32.460 but they tried to take her out

00:17:33.560 for providing something

00:17:35.140 contextually

00:17:36.100 that you may say

00:17:36.880 is inappropriate,

00:17:37.360 but in no way

00:17:38.300 would actually be indicative

00:17:40.100 of her being racist.

00:17:41.280 That's where we are.

00:17:42.200 It's the weaponizing

00:17:43.060 of language

00:17:44.060 and it's the weaponizing

00:17:45.360 of offense.

00:17:46.280 And I don't like it

00:17:47.060 when people on the right

00:17:47.720 do it either.

00:17:48.800 And I certainly hate it

00:17:50.140 when people on the left do it,

00:17:51.000 but both sides do it.

00:17:51.940 How about we just say,

00:17:52.740 you know what?

00:17:53.480 Let's take people at their word

00:17:54.900 and let's go from there.

00:17:56.380 That's what we have to do.

00:17:57.240 If we talk about

00:17:57.860 resetting here

00:17:58.560 in the United States,

00:17:59.440 how do we pull this back?

00:18:00.820 Because it feels like

00:18:01.560 we're at a point of no return.

00:18:02.580 It starts with,

00:18:04.340 everyone just has to say,

00:18:05.200 okay, clean slate,

00:18:06.400 like an Etch-A-Sketch.

00:18:07.740 You just, okay,

00:18:08.220 let's shake this up.

00:18:09.080 Let's wipe it clean.

00:18:10.200 Let's stop looking

00:18:11.320 to be offended

00:18:12.000 and looking for the worst

00:18:14.180 possible outcome in people.

00:18:15.700 I don't know that people

00:18:16.460 can do that

00:18:16.920 because it's not lucrative,

00:18:18.060 but you know

00:18:19.000 that's happened with you.

00:18:19.780 Of course,

00:18:20.260 I well know it happens with me.

00:18:21.880 Happened with Dr. Laura

00:18:22.740 and it happened with people

00:18:23.740 who questioned Fetterman

00:18:24.520 or the Wuhan lab leak

00:18:25.740 or, oh my God,

00:18:26.540 January 6th,

00:18:27.220 which I'm sure we'll get to.

00:18:29.240 And that's not what we do.

00:18:30.460 That's why, you know,

00:18:31.360 we've gone independent.

00:18:33.100 Well, that's, I mean,

00:18:33.600 it is,

00:18:33.960 it's especially annoying to me

00:18:35.300 when somebody like,

00:18:36.200 you know,

00:18:36.460 you or somebody like Dr. Laura

00:18:37.840 or me for that matter,

00:18:39.420 when you're in the business

00:18:40.160 of talking about

00:18:41.160 really difficult,

00:18:42.140 dicey issues,

00:18:43.240 like, of course,

00:18:44.040 you're skating on the third rail.

00:18:45.560 There has to be a wider latitude.

00:18:47.180 If we're going to have

00:18:47.900 those conversations,

00:18:48.540 we're going to have them honestly.

00:18:49.720 But, you know,

00:18:50.160 yes, the left

00:18:50.840 and its selective outrage

00:18:52.320 gets pinned against

00:18:53.280 certain people

00:18:54.120 with certain backgrounds

00:18:54.880 and not against others.

00:18:56.100 All right.

00:18:56.600 So I want to get

00:18:57.660 to all those news stories,

00:18:58.360 but let's talk about

00:18:59.020 your business right now

00:18:59.800 because people are excited

00:19:00.660 to learn that you're coming back

00:19:02.080 and it folds perfectly

00:19:03.440 into what we were just talking about.

00:19:04.640 So what are you doing?

00:19:05.880 You left the blaze.

00:19:07.760 You had a big blow up

00:19:08.780 with our friends

00:19:09.300 over the Daily Wire

00:19:10.100 and you kind of went dark

00:19:12.020 for a while

00:19:12.440 as you got your next act in order

00:19:13.820 and now it's in order.

00:19:14.720 So what are you doing?

00:19:16.420 Yeah.

00:19:16.660 Well, to be clear too,

00:19:17.600 by the way,

00:19:17.860 I didn't get into a blow up

00:19:18.940 with Daily Wire, right?

00:19:19.940 They kind of outed themselves.

00:19:21.160 I talked about,

00:19:21.720 there were a lot of suitors

00:19:22.460 and you know this too.

00:19:23.640 There were a lot of suitors.

00:19:24.200 There were a lot of suitors.

00:19:26.540 There were a lot of contracts

00:19:27.280 that were offered.

00:19:28.720 You can only discuss the ones,

00:19:29.980 you know,

00:19:30.140 or term sheets

00:19:30.760 where there aren't NDAs.

00:19:31.900 But this is a problem

00:19:32.640 that happens on the right

00:19:33.540 and look,

00:19:34.080 you know this

00:19:34.520 because you've also worked

00:19:35.240 at Fox News.

00:19:35.720 You've also worked

00:19:36.180 at other networks.

00:19:37.240 These type of ownership contracts

00:19:39.260 that are unfair

00:19:40.420 and take control

00:19:41.160 of your properties,

00:19:42.940 your social media

00:19:43.700 in perpetuity.

00:19:44.320 The issue that I always had

00:19:45.420 and yeah,

00:19:46.360 just to be clear,

00:19:47.200 I signed a contract

00:19:47.840 with a company

00:19:48.300 called CRTV in 2015

00:19:49.920 and then they purchased

00:19:51.180 the blaze

00:19:51.560 and it was this whole thing

00:19:52.240 where they kind of,

00:19:53.000 I don't know how to explain it.

00:19:54.060 It doesn't matter.

00:19:54.480 It's boring.

00:19:55.300 The point is,

00:19:56.580 yeah,

00:19:56.840 Mug Club is officially

00:19:57.900 coming back March 20th.

00:19:59.920 March 20th,

00:20:00.680 the price has been lowered

00:20:01.380 to $89.

00:20:02.220 People can go to

00:20:02.740 ladderwithcrowder.com

00:20:03.720 slash Mug Club

00:20:04.320 and we're adding twice the content.

00:20:05.880 So now there's a Friday show.

00:20:06.760 Just explain what that is

00:20:08.220 and the difference

00:20:08.680 between Mug Club

00:20:09.380 and Ladderwithcrowder

00:20:10.320 so people who don't

00:20:11.160 follow you that closely

00:20:12.340 understand.

00:20:12.700 Yeah,

00:20:13.040 well so what it is

00:20:13.800 is,

00:20:14.080 so we do a show

00:20:14.900 Monday through Thursday.

00:20:16.260 We've been doing this

00:20:16.660 for a long time

00:20:17.260 and people watch

00:20:18.020 an hour for free

00:20:18.840 on YouTube

00:20:19.260 and then there's

00:20:20.140 an additional,

00:20:20.780 or Rumble by the way

00:20:21.560 and I highly recommend

00:20:22.160 they watch with Rumble.

00:20:23.300 Rumble is the company

00:20:24.140 that is powering Mug Club

00:20:25.000 so that's,

00:20:25.860 I think it's the biggest

00:20:26.760 sort of modern agreement,

00:20:29.780 I guess talent agreement,

00:20:30.720 we use that term loosely

00:20:31.500 but signing of a conservative

00:20:32.520 talent in history

00:20:34.380 as far as sort of

00:20:35.400 these online mergers

00:20:36.260 right now with Rumble

00:20:36.940 and I'll tell you

00:20:37.800 why we went with Rumble

00:20:38.520 but basically,

00:20:39.700 Mug Club is,

00:20:40.680 we don't have

00:20:41.460 five, six, seven,

00:20:42.420 eight, ten live reads

00:20:43.320 where we've been

00:20:44.420 demonetized on YouTube

00:20:45.240 for a very, very long time.

00:20:46.500 It also makes us

00:20:47.220 impossible to find

00:20:48.120 on YouTube.

00:20:48.840 So we have Mug Club

00:20:49.860 and that's where

00:20:50.220 people subscribe,

00:20:51.320 they pay and they get

00:20:52.180 an additional full hour

00:20:53.760 of show every single day

00:20:55.280 along with chats,

00:20:56.120 along with perks

00:20:56.760 and by the way,

00:20:57.500 it's what keeps

00:20:57.940 the free show going.

00:20:59.220 As we relaunch,

00:21:00.120 we've signed now comedians

00:21:01.300 to tape their specials,

00:21:02.360 Brian Callen,

00:21:02.980 we're talking with

00:21:03.440 three other people,

00:21:04.340 Mr. Guns and Gear,

00:21:05.180 one of the biggest

00:21:05.660 YouTube channels out there,

00:21:07.340 really well respected

00:21:08.160 in the space.

00:21:08.980 He's going to be doing

00:21:09.800 a show weekly

00:21:10.740 or bi-weekly.

00:21:11.540 We'll be adding

00:21:12.000 a Friday show

00:21:12.880 and we're signing

00:21:13.760 new talent as we speak

00:21:15.400 and the beauty of it

00:21:16.120 is we framed the contract

00:21:17.360 so people are out there

00:21:18.360 if you're watching,

00:21:19.520 if you're listening

00:21:19.920 and we've had a conversation

00:21:21.060 with quite a few people.

00:21:22.260 I don't want any ownership

00:21:23.280 over your platforms

00:21:24.560 and I don't want any ownership

00:21:25.960 over your subscribers.

00:21:27.180 If you decide

00:21:27.700 this isn't the right fit for you

00:21:28.840 and you want to leave,

00:21:29.580 you leave,

00:21:29.960 you take your people,

00:21:30.700 you go on your merry way.

00:21:31.800 It's a new way

00:21:32.580 of doing business

00:21:33.680 and the real reason too

00:21:35.220 that Rumble

00:21:36.500 was such a great fit

00:21:37.400 and I believe

00:21:38.560 that you put

00:21:39.380 some of your episodes,

00:21:40.360 I don't know

00:21:40.660 if they go on Rumble

00:21:41.200 but a lot of people,

00:21:42.120 yeah.

00:21:42.780 Okay.

00:21:43.420 So Chris over there

00:21:44.580 and the stuff,

00:21:44.960 they're really great guys.

00:21:45.860 Here's the thing.

00:21:46.440 Rumble,

00:21:46.820 we have not had

00:21:47.700 like a professional

00:21:48.800 working relationship

00:21:49.740 aside from a friendship

00:21:50.580 really when we started

00:21:52.400 where we were just using them

00:21:53.480 as a hedge with YouTube

00:21:54.420 because we had two,

00:21:55.560 three,

00:21:55.900 four,

00:21:56.200 five suspensions

00:21:56.960 on YouTube

00:21:57.480 beyond being demonetized.

00:21:58.840 So it ended up being

00:21:59.380 a mirror of YouTube

00:22:00.480 as a channel

00:22:01.720 and then a lot of creators

00:22:03.020 started doing that

00:22:04.340 and then their user base

00:22:05.940 started getting very,

00:22:06.980 very large

00:22:07.460 and then we saw

00:22:08.460 on the election night

00:22:09.720 where we were suspended,

00:22:10.960 right?

00:22:11.180 Our entire channel

00:22:12.660 was suspended

00:22:13.140 off of YouTube completely

00:22:14.160 and we crashed their servers

00:22:15.740 because we had

00:22:16.180 400,000 live viewers

00:22:17.380 at any given second

00:22:18.760 that night,

00:22:20.200 not including over

00:22:21.160 on Mug Club

00:22:21.620 at that point

00:22:22.180 and I get excited

00:22:23.480 when I see

00:22:24.220 the transition

00:22:25.220 from the live viewers

00:22:26.420 on YouTube

00:22:26.820 where it goes from,

00:22:27.520 you know,

00:22:27.660 120,000 on YouTube

00:22:29.120 and then the next day

00:22:29.800 it goes down to 80

00:22:30.740 but there's 40 on Rumble

00:22:31.720 and then all of a sudden

00:22:32.440 there's more on Rumble

00:22:33.500 and less on YouTube.

00:22:34.440 Here's the thing,

00:22:34.940 no one should aim

00:22:35.580 to be banned from YouTube,

00:22:36.800 that's not what we're doing

00:22:37.620 but we need to be able

00:22:39.460 to speak the truth

00:22:40.380 and the issue

00:22:41.360 that I ran into

00:22:42.180 and this is the kind of thing

00:22:43.320 that keeps me up at night

00:22:44.320 is when you're knocking on doors

00:22:45.780 and you have people

00:22:46.360 who are presenting

00:22:47.020 these contracts

00:22:47.680 with golden handcuffs

00:22:48.600 and you realize

00:22:49.500 that they are punishing

00:22:50.960 conservative content creators

00:22:52.200 on behalf of big tech.

00:22:54.780 I'm borderline obsessive.

00:22:56.600 The reason for,

00:22:57.800 my raison d'être

00:22:58.700 is to fight big tech

00:23:00.500 and be a thorn

00:23:01.320 in their sight

00:23:01.840 especially now

00:23:02.560 on this new Mohan guy

00:23:04.180 is a CEO on YouTube.

00:23:05.340 People don't know this,

00:23:06.120 you think,

00:23:06.440 hey,

00:23:06.520 it's out of the furnace

00:23:07.680 into the fire.

00:23:08.440 Is that the term

00:23:08.820 or is it out of the,

00:23:09.540 I don't know,

00:23:09.900 I think it's out of the furnace

00:23:10.540 into the fire

00:23:10.900 which doesn't,

00:23:11.920 out of the frying pan

00:23:12.540 into the fire.

00:23:13.320 That's right.

00:23:13.800 There might be a salami involved too.

00:23:15.800 There could be a salami

00:23:16.620 in some kind of a bologna bop

00:23:17.920 or horizontal momo

00:23:18.760 but the point is

00:23:19.420 we're getting all of our,

00:23:20.360 all of our allegories wrong here.

00:23:23.080 What happens is

00:23:24.260 this guy's going to be worse.

00:23:25.900 You thought Susan Wojcicki was bad.

00:23:27.580 This was a guy

00:23:28.120 who was directly involved

00:23:28.940 with creating the borderline content rule

00:23:30.660 after us

00:23:31.340 and the Vox Adpocalypse

00:23:32.420 on YouTube.

00:23:33.700 They're going,

00:23:34.200 it's like Jack Dorsey

00:23:35.060 leaving Twitter

00:23:35.620 and until Elon came in

00:23:36.680 it got worse

00:23:37.820 and so with Mug Club

00:23:38.940 what we're doing

00:23:39.540 it's decentralized

00:23:40.820 but the viewer,

00:23:42.420 you,

00:23:42.680 you get access to more content

00:23:44.220 than pretty much anywhere else.

00:23:46.480 We've always tried to look at

00:23:47.860 True North being the viewer.

00:23:49.340 Our audience,

00:23:50.020 like I get it,

00:23:51.100 $89 a year

00:23:52.200 is a lot of money

00:23:53.320 for someone to part with,

00:23:54.360 right?

00:23:54.540 Their hard-earned money

00:23:55.280 and you see

00:23:55.840 this subscription fatigue

00:23:57.000 that goes on

00:23:57.640 and it's $12 a month

00:23:58.540 or a tier of $24 a month.

00:24:00.340 Look,

00:24:01.120 if you want the show

00:24:01.820 to continue,

00:24:02.320 you want access

00:24:02.820 to all these other creators

00:24:03.780 and to see this thing grow

00:24:05.340 and that's one thing too

00:24:06.220 with what we do,

00:24:07.020 critical mass is important.

00:24:08.160 We've never tried to

00:24:08.900 squeeze as much money

00:24:10.480 out of every individual subscriber.

00:24:12.360 We try to add value.

00:24:14.240 We need,

00:24:14.540 we're creating something

00:24:15.360 that's an alternative

00:24:15.960 that provides safety.

00:24:17.260 We're betting on ourselves

00:24:18.260 and honestly,

00:24:19.320 we launched just a,

00:24:20.620 what,

00:24:20.760 what are we today?

00:24:21.340 Are we Thursday?

00:24:21.980 Sorry,

00:24:22.100 I've been traveling all around

00:24:22.880 with that red tide.

00:24:24.220 Launched Monday

00:24:24.920 and thank God

00:24:26.580 we bet on ourselves

00:24:27.320 and Rumble has our backs

00:24:28.660 because it really does feel

00:24:29.940 like a weight lifted

00:24:30.620 off my shoulders.

00:24:31.360 If we get banned

00:24:31.900 from YouTube tomorrow,

00:24:33.180 we will be fine.

00:24:33.960 I hope it doesn't happen

00:24:34.960 but it could happen

00:24:36.080 and Rumble's the only,

00:24:37.280 they were the only people

00:24:37.940 out there who cared

00:24:38.500 and got it.

00:24:39.180 That's the beauty of Rumble.

00:24:40.300 I will say,

00:24:40.900 you know,

00:24:41.080 YouTube,

00:24:41.640 it's huge of course

00:24:42.660 and it's number one

00:24:43.380 in its space

00:24:44.460 but it's much more

00:24:45.960 constrictive than Rumble is.

00:24:47.180 Rumble's much more

00:24:47.760 permissive of speech,

00:24:48.800 of just speech

00:24:49.440 that you may find offensive.

00:24:50.640 You don't have to tune in.

00:24:51.460 You don't want it.

00:24:51.980 You don't know,

00:24:52.420 then fine,

00:24:52.880 don't do it

00:24:53.320 but like it is difficult

00:24:54.820 for somebody like you

00:24:55.760 who just,

00:24:56.300 you don't color inside the lines.

00:24:57.740 You never have

00:24:58.380 to exist on a platform

00:25:00.440 like YouTube versus Rumble

00:25:01.700 and I too find the guys

00:25:02.640 over there

00:25:03.000 very easy to work with,

00:25:04.040 super nice guys,

00:25:05.200 completely committed

00:25:06.000 to the mission of free speech.

00:25:07.140 It's not like they're righties

00:25:08.260 or lefties.

00:25:09.220 It's like,

00:25:09.760 we just want free speech.

00:25:10.940 They don't,

00:25:12.080 they're not much for censorship.

00:25:14.420 Yeah,

00:25:14.540 and they're not saying

00:25:16.000 that they're for free speech

00:25:17.200 and then when it comes down to it,

00:25:18.880 not actually putting their money

00:25:19.880 where their mouth is.

00:25:20.440 There's a huge difference

00:25:21.320 when a company like Rumble

00:25:22.220 and by the way,

00:25:22.740 one of those guys is Canadian.

00:25:23.740 He was not conservative.

00:25:24.920 They told the entire French government

00:25:26.780 to go fornicate themselves

00:25:28.460 and they said,

00:25:28.880 you have to take this content down.

00:25:30.060 They said,

00:25:30.380 no,

00:25:30.560 we're not going to do that.

00:25:31.420 You guys do what you have to do

00:25:32.700 and I get it.

00:25:33.620 People initially are concerned

00:25:35.080 with Rumble,

00:25:35.480 right?

00:25:35.580 It's an IPO.

00:25:36.400 So I understand

00:25:36.800 that comes with pressures,

00:25:37.640 right?

00:25:37.760 To shareholders.

00:25:38.640 But here's the beauty

00:25:39.260 and Rumble,

00:25:39.760 when I told them this,

00:25:41.080 you know,

00:25:41.260 usually this would be,

00:25:42.460 oh my gosh,

00:25:43.060 this would be terror

00:25:43.840 in someone's eyes

00:25:44.460 if you tell them

00:25:44.940 you've boxed yourselves in.

00:25:46.580 When I sat down with Rumble

00:25:47.600 and what they're really doing

00:25:48.960 is they're handling the back end,

00:25:50.080 right?

00:25:50.200 There's a vision to the company,

00:25:51.200 which I'd like to kind of get into.

00:25:52.220 We'll be fundamentally changing

00:25:53.340 the infrastructure of Rumble

00:25:54.820 as it goes forward

00:25:56.120 to make it more user-friendly,

00:25:57.880 to make it something

00:25:58.680 that can compete with YouTube

00:25:59.700 as well as premium paid content.

00:26:01.820 But I told Rumble,

00:26:02.540 I said,

00:26:02.700 you guys have boxed yourselves in

00:26:03.840 because if your company

00:26:05.360 is going to be worth more,

00:26:06.440 I think it's worth,

00:26:07.040 I think it's a $2 billion company

00:26:08.040 right now.

00:26:08.460 I said,

00:26:08.940 you're only as valuable

00:26:09.940 as your commitment

00:26:11.520 to protecting free speech.

00:26:13.200 In other words,

00:26:13.680 if they compromise

00:26:14.580 protecting free speech

00:26:15.760 on their platform,

00:26:16.660 YouTube light.

00:26:18.100 Right,

00:26:18.240 exactly.

00:26:18.700 Then no one would use Rumble.

00:26:20.160 So they've boxed themselves

00:26:21.480 in willingly

00:26:22.340 to be the company

00:26:23.960 that is willing

00:26:24.760 to take those hits,

00:26:26.100 that is willing

00:26:26.740 to pave the way

00:26:27.880 and also bring in

00:26:29.180 content creators

00:26:29.940 with fair contracts

00:26:31.580 that are transparent

00:26:32.600 and allow you

00:26:33.540 to keep ownership

00:26:34.280 over your own platforms.

00:26:35.800 And that's the way

00:26:36.740 you're going to grow.

00:26:37.600 That's the only way

00:26:38.060 you can attract top talent

00:26:39.280 at this point, right?

00:26:40.360 It's not like you're

00:26:41.580 combing through television

00:26:42.780 like you were

00:26:43.380 once upon a time.

00:26:44.080 The top talent creators

00:26:45.000 are online

00:26:45.940 and they have

00:26:46.400 their own platforms anyway.

00:26:47.420 The viewer though

00:26:48.480 would love to have

00:26:49.320 a place where

00:26:49.900 those can be merged

00:26:50.920 and they don't have

00:26:51.360 to pay $10 here

00:26:52.380 and $20 there.

00:26:53.720 And it's a start

00:26:54.780 but we're doubling

00:26:55.800 the content.

00:26:56.620 I think we'll be probably

00:26:57.560 at triple or quadruple

00:26:58.560 very soon.

00:26:59.780 And I can't tell you

00:27:01.140 how happy we are

00:27:02.720 to partner with a company.

00:27:03.600 It's the first time

00:27:04.340 where I've just felt

00:27:04.880 okay,

00:27:06.740 I'm not going to be

00:27:07.460 I'm not going to be yelling

00:27:08.540 at billionaires on the phone

00:27:09.780 again,

00:27:10.880 which happened in the past.

00:27:11.880 Yeah, it did.

00:27:12.780 Don't you feel like

00:27:13.580 it landed where

00:27:14.200 this is this is like

00:27:15.780 everything happens

00:27:16.780 for a reason.

00:27:17.280 I don't know.

00:27:17.680 Maybe it does.

00:27:18.300 Maybe it doesn't.

00:27:18.720 But this is why

00:27:20.220 all that bullshit

00:27:20.960 happened with you

00:27:22.160 and the Daily Wire.

00:27:22.820 And I realized

00:27:23.160 it was ugly for a while.

00:27:24.020 Not Daily Wire,

00:27:24.700 but you and Jeremy.

00:27:26.380 It landed in a better place.

00:27:27.760 This was my take on it

00:27:28.600 when it happened.

00:27:29.260 I'm sure you were busy

00:27:29.900 doing other things,

00:27:30.660 but this was my takeaway

00:27:31.440 as I watched it,

00:27:32.720 which is Stephen's

00:27:33.480 going to land in a better place.

00:27:34.640 That wasn't the fit for him.

00:27:36.420 And like now

00:27:37.820 you have this opportunity

00:27:38.740 to create the thing

00:27:39.740 that you thought

00:27:41.060 you were going to be

00:27:41.980 getting at the Daily Wire

00:27:42.920 and realized you weren't.

00:27:44.600 And like their business

00:27:45.840 bottle is fine for them.

00:27:46.420 No, but here's the thing, though.

00:27:46.960 That's the way they want to do it.

00:27:47.700 You want to do it a different way.

00:27:49.160 No, no, no.

00:27:49.600 Here's the thing, though.

00:27:50.380 It's not about me.

00:27:50.980 I was always going to land

00:27:51.920 in a better place.

00:27:52.800 Here's the thing.

00:27:53.220 There would be nothing.

00:27:53.960 And you know this.

00:27:55.100 Would there be anything easier

00:27:56.320 than me just collecting a check

00:27:57.700 and going off into the sunset?

00:27:58.760 I don't need to bring on more talent.

00:28:00.580 I don't need to expand

00:28:01.280 the network.

00:28:01.800 I mean, I know you.

00:28:04.340 That's less profitable for me.

00:28:05.700 It's about the next guy.

00:28:06.800 It's about some kid

00:28:07.840 who then is told,

00:28:09.380 hey, by the way,

00:28:09.880 you're going to be penalized

00:28:10.800 if you do not.

00:28:12.160 If you are not beholden

00:28:13.480 to the rules of big tech.

00:28:14.820 Can you imagine

00:28:15.280 what our show would look like?

00:28:16.860 No, you have our show

00:28:17.760 would look like

00:28:18.100 if we had to be monetized

00:28:19.240 on YouTube.

00:28:20.040 And Rumble said, look,

00:28:21.520 you do what you want to do.

00:28:22.760 And same thing with Mug Club,

00:28:23.640 by the way,

00:28:24.020 it's a partnership with Rumble

00:28:25.240 where it's going to be

00:28:25.880 its own umbrella.

00:28:26.620 The idea.

00:28:27.720 Well, what's going to happen

00:28:28.460 in the future is right now,

00:28:29.460 for example, if you're on Hulu,

00:28:30.560 right, you're in Hulu Plus,

00:28:32.620 Hulu Premium.

00:28:33.500 It just recognizes it

00:28:34.640 and you get it ad free.

00:28:35.580 It's the same thing

00:28:36.180 with whatever it is,

00:28:36.980 YouTube Premium.

00:28:38.080 So YouTube, Hulu,

00:28:39.100 or in Hulu,

00:28:39.840 you get access to Disney,

00:28:40.700 you get access to ESPN.

00:28:42.240 Eventually, Rumble is going

00:28:43.020 to get to that point

00:28:43.660 where as long as you are

00:28:44.360 logged into Rumble

00:28:45.160 and if you are subscribed

00:28:46.160 to Mug Club,

00:28:46.720 you're going to get access

00:28:47.440 to the entire catalog.

00:28:48.760 It's just going to recognize

00:28:49.520 that you're signed in.

00:28:50.560 Right now, when people

00:28:51.560 want to continue watching the show,

00:28:53.220 if they're watching on Rumble

00:28:54.160 starting March 20th,

00:28:55.500 they just hit a button

00:28:56.240 and they continue watching the show

00:28:57.920 for an additional full hour.

00:28:59.620 If you're not,

00:29:00.180 if you're watching on YouTube,

00:29:01.060 just go to

00:29:01.400 loudearthcrediter.com

00:29:02.240 slash Mug Club.

00:29:03.020 It's going to recognize

00:29:03.860 if you're not signed up,

00:29:05.140 sign up,

00:29:05.880 and then it's just going

00:29:06.620 to start playing the show

00:29:07.560 if you are signed up.

00:29:08.440 And by the way,

00:29:08.940 if people are out there,

00:29:12.260 because a lot of people

00:29:13.640 subscribed only a couple of months,

00:29:15.460 a few months before our contract ended.

00:29:16.820 We had no way of really reaching them

00:29:17.940 and doing right by them.

00:29:19.040 We've sent you a promo code

00:29:20.080 where you're going to get,

00:29:20.860 I think it's three or four months

00:29:22.400 absolutely free

00:29:23.640 for the same price.

00:29:24.640 So we're doing everything we can.

00:29:26.000 I have no doubt your fan base

00:29:26.160 is going to find you.

00:29:26.880 There's only one Steven Crowder.

00:29:28.580 You have a very unique voice.

00:29:30.080 This is why you have

00:29:31.180 six million subscribers

00:29:32.300 on YouTube.

00:29:33.860 They're going to find you

00:29:34.620 over on Rumble.

00:29:35.620 There's nobody like Steven.

00:29:37.000 For better or for worse,

00:29:38.140 there's nobody like you.

00:29:39.840 Stand by.

00:29:40.300 It's worse in a lot of ways.

00:29:41.860 I got to squeeze in a quick break.

00:29:43.340 We'll come back with a red wave

00:29:44.420 and more of Steven Crowder.

00:29:46.300 Now streaming on Paramount+.

00:29:49.360 Someone is trying to frame us.

00:29:52.340 Until our names are cleared.

00:29:54.840 We're fugitives from interval.

00:29:56.640 Like Bonnie and Clyde

00:29:57.820 with better snacks.

00:30:00.100 Espionage.

00:30:00.700 You're still as good a shot

00:30:01.780 as you used to be.

00:30:03.840 Better.

00:30:04.520 Is there love language?

00:30:06.020 We like to walk that fine line

00:30:07.340 between techno thriller

00:30:08.520 and romantic comedy.

00:30:10.820 We make up our own rules.

00:30:13.140 NCIS Tony and Ziva.

00:30:14.920 Now streaming on Paramount+.

00:30:16.580 So Steven, let's talk about

00:30:21.800 you made a reference

00:30:22.480 to the testimony

00:30:23.500 on Capitol Hill yesterday.

00:30:24.860 Pretty extraordinary

00:30:25.540 by the former head of the CDC.

00:30:27.160 The guy who's the head

00:30:28.000 of the CDC.

00:30:29.080 Now we've been stuck

00:30:30.000 with Rochelle Walensky so long.

00:30:31.320 She's such a PIA.

00:30:32.640 Sorry, but she's in hysteric.

00:30:34.060 She's in hysteric

00:30:34.820 running the CDC.

00:30:36.400 That we forgot about

00:30:37.100 Robert Redfield.

00:30:39.040 Look it up in your little...

00:30:40.400 I'm going to look it up.

00:30:41.300 I'm going to look it up.

00:30:41.720 Go ahead, continue.

00:30:42.460 I'm going to look up PIA.

00:30:43.100 I have no idea what that means.

00:30:44.240 I'm not even joking.

00:30:44.540 What do you mean?

00:30:44.900 I've resorted to using letters now

00:30:46.320 because of the Lenten vow

00:30:47.460 to avoid swearing.

00:30:49.880 Oh, gosh.

00:30:50.940 I guess I need to understand

00:30:52.560 acronyms better.

00:30:53.440 I don't know what PIA...

00:30:54.080 Come on.

00:30:55.040 Are you messing with me?

00:30:55.700 You don't know what PIA is?

00:30:57.360 I don't.

00:30:57.740 I'm thinking of PIA.

00:30:59.480 Pain in the...

00:31:01.500 Oh!

00:31:02.180 Well, why would you do

00:31:02.740 the acronym for that?

00:31:04.720 That's why.

00:31:05.540 Like, I can't believe

00:31:06.620 I willingly took all that guff

00:31:07.920 over Solani

00:31:08.640 and you don't know PIA.

00:31:09.820 All right, let's move back

00:31:10.580 to Robert Redfield.

00:31:11.080 Well, because I wouldn't

00:31:11.700 need a censor, PIA.

00:31:13.140 I'm not a four-year-old.

00:31:14.120 I mean, you can say ass.

00:31:15.440 It's in the Bible

00:31:15.960 for crying out loud.

00:31:17.160 You know what?

00:31:17.480 Even my mom said

00:31:18.440 I was allowed to say ass.

00:31:19.800 She just said,

00:31:20.300 just try staying away

00:31:21.320 from the F word.

00:31:22.160 She said that's the one

00:31:22.980 she finds the most jarring.

00:31:24.780 Yeah.

00:31:25.100 Well, that's true.

00:31:25.660 That makes sense.

00:31:26.160 I mean, there are worse words

00:31:27.560 than the F word.

00:31:28.180 But yeah, it's definitely in there.

00:31:29.640 But the Bible does say ass,

00:31:30.980 so I think you're probably fine.

00:31:31.940 And damn.

00:31:32.540 Damn's in there.

00:31:33.100 Usually they're talking

00:31:33.640 about a donkey.

00:31:34.200 I get it.

00:31:34.620 But yeah, I wouldn't worry

00:31:35.600 about saying the word ass.

00:31:36.720 That's fine.

00:31:37.320 Okay.

00:31:37.960 Well, Rochelle Walensky

00:31:39.020 is an ass.

00:31:40.360 So Robert Redfield is now

00:31:42.140 he was the head of the CDC

00:31:43.260 during COVID.

00:31:43.940 And he I mean, he did.

00:31:45.620 He quit like he was

00:31:46.320 basically forced out.

00:31:47.140 But but he's been telegraphing

00:31:50.120 that he's got some real questions

00:31:52.000 about Fauci and the lies

00:31:53.500 that have been shoved

00:31:54.040 down our throats for a while.

00:31:55.060 So yesterday he was called

00:31:56.200 before the House committee

00:31:57.020 and laid it bare.

00:31:58.660 And it was a thing of beauty.

00:32:00.360 And of course,

00:32:01.100 the mainstream won't play

00:32:02.060 most of this.

00:32:02.520 So we're going to go through

00:32:03.000 a couple of the quotes

00:32:03.680 because they're really interesting.

00:32:05.420 Here he is first talking

00:32:06.520 about how he made clear

00:32:07.940 early on.

00:32:08.640 It was clear to him

00:32:10.040 this was a lab leak.

00:32:10.980 It wasn't natural origin.

00:32:12.400 And you know what?

00:32:13.100 The mean girls suddenly pushed him

00:32:15.000 out of all the discussions.

00:32:17.120 Here it is.

00:32:17.580 Sot one.

00:32:19.540 In early to mid January,

00:32:21.080 I did have multiple calls

00:32:22.500 with Fauci, Farrar and Tedros

00:32:25.060 about how important

00:32:27.000 I thought it was that science

00:32:28.480 get engaged in aggressive,

00:32:30.780 aggressive pursuing both hypotheses.

00:32:33.480 I also expressed

00:32:34.960 as a clinical virologist

00:32:36.600 that I felt it was

00:32:39.180 not scientifically plausible

00:32:41.780 that this virus

00:32:43.560 went from a bat to humans.

00:32:45.280 Why do you think

00:32:46.000 you were excluded

00:32:46.500 from those calls?

00:32:47.500 Because it was told to me

00:32:49.300 that they wanted

00:32:50.840 a single narrative

00:32:51.940 and that I obviously

00:32:52.980 had a different point of view.

00:32:54.140 Science has debate

00:32:55.220 and they squashed

00:32:56.140 any debate.

00:32:57.800 It's amazing.

00:32:58.580 It's just a reminder

00:32:59.260 to the audience.

00:33:00.080 They were telling us

00:33:00.900 and continued to tell us,

00:33:02.000 Fauci and his

00:33:02.700 virologist henchmen

00:33:04.000 who he strong-armed

00:33:05.220 into saying couldn't

00:33:06.100 have been a lab leak,

00:33:06.840 but they went into it

00:33:07.780 totally open-minded

00:33:09.160 when they wrote

00:33:09.980 that Nature article

00:33:11.320 in February 2020.

00:33:13.140 Everyone was just

00:33:13.840 an open-minded search,

00:33:15.600 Stephen, for the truth.

00:33:16.580 They didn't have their thumb

00:33:17.560 on the scale

00:33:18.180 for natural origin at all.

00:33:19.880 And there you have

00:33:20.260 the head of the CDC

00:33:20.980 saying he was excluded

00:33:23.180 from the conference calls,

00:33:24.560 from the discussions,

00:33:25.140 the head of the CDC

00:33:25.960 because he said,

00:33:27.600 I think this is a lab leak.

00:33:29.520 Yeah.

00:33:29.960 Well, here's the thing.

00:33:31.480 First off,

00:33:32.040 who could have thought

00:33:32.560 that Fauci might not necessarily

00:33:33.980 be on the up-and-up.

00:33:34.580 This is a guy who said

00:33:35.160 that children could catch AIDS,

00:33:36.720 right, airborne

00:33:37.560 from their parents.

00:33:38.440 They lived in the same house.

00:33:39.260 We've run that

00:33:40.080 and actually run that reference

00:33:40.980 quite a few times on the show.

00:33:42.680 How is this guy so wrong

00:33:43.960 when he's the highest paid,

00:33:45.320 or he was, I should say,

00:33:46.340 unelected official in government?

00:33:47.600 He got nearly everything wrong

00:33:48.820 on AIDS.

00:33:49.820 Here's the deal.

00:33:50.360 We were suspended

00:33:51.080 for talking about

00:33:52.140 the Wuhan lab leak,

00:33:53.020 by the way.

00:33:53.740 And we also had

00:33:54.320 some exclusive information on that

00:33:55.500 with some people

00:33:55.940 who spoke off the record.

00:33:57.100 So we were suspended

00:33:57.780 from YouTube.

00:33:58.300 And this all brings us back

00:33:59.360 to that same point, right?

00:34:01.080 The big tech oligarchy

00:34:02.440 that exists.

00:34:03.360 Remember, you could not say,

00:34:04.720 hey, there could potentially

00:34:05.420 be some complications

00:34:06.420 with the vaccine for people

00:34:08.380 or myocarditis.

00:34:09.280 You couldn't say

00:34:09.960 we were once suspended.

00:34:10.760 You can say this now,

00:34:11.480 by the way.

00:34:11.820 So I know your people

00:34:12.320 might have their finger

00:34:12.900 on the button

00:34:13.280 as far as YouTube.

00:34:14.040 You can say it now.

00:34:15.220 We were also suspended.

00:34:16.940 Yeah, well,

00:34:17.920 we have a no crap button.

00:34:18.960 And basically,

00:34:19.660 it's just white noise

00:34:20.560 at this point.

00:34:21.620 But we also were suspended

00:34:23.200 because Gerald,

00:34:24.060 the nicest guy in the world

00:34:24.980 on my show,

00:34:25.580 who's in there

00:34:25.940 in second chair all the time,

00:34:27.360 we brought up

00:34:27.900 the CDC numbers

00:34:28.880 on the fact

00:34:30.220 that far more young children

00:34:31.760 are killed by the flu

00:34:32.540 every year

00:34:33.120 than COVID total.

00:34:34.100 Now, here's the thing.

00:34:35.380 Scientifically,

00:34:36.220 that's interesting.

00:34:36.840 We never said COVID

00:34:37.480 was a hoax.

00:34:38.800 We never said

00:34:39.220 it wasn't deadly.

00:34:40.100 We said,

00:34:40.420 isn't it interesting?

00:34:41.300 There must be something

00:34:42.140 with the immune response

00:34:43.280 that is conducive

00:34:45.900 towards at least young people

00:34:46.940 being able

00:34:47.540 to fight it off

00:34:48.120 more effectively.

00:34:48.560 It kills old people

00:34:49.560 at a much higher rate.

00:34:51.020 And for some reason,

00:34:51.940 young people,

00:34:52.660 particularly infants,

00:34:53.360 are far less susceptible.

00:34:55.200 We'd love to follow

00:34:55.920 that science.

00:34:57.080 I'll give you an example.

00:34:57.900 When Stephen Hawking

00:34:58.560 went out and said

00:34:59.040 there is no God,

00:35:00.520 he's the most respected

00:35:01.520 scientist, right,

00:35:02.500 as far as physicists

00:35:03.200 out there.

00:35:03.940 He was, right,

00:35:05.200 with his tenure.

00:35:05.720 Well, he's a lot of things,

00:35:07.020 but he's no scientist.

00:35:08.260 That's not a scientific statement

00:35:09.400 to say that there is no God.

00:35:10.500 The problem is not

00:35:11.160 that these people

00:35:11.820 are unscientific.

00:35:13.000 The problem isn't

00:35:13.820 that Fauci is Fauci.

00:35:15.180 We know exactly who he is.

00:35:16.120 The problem is

00:35:17.140 when YouTube, Facebook,

00:35:18.720 and those who used

00:35:19.300 to head up Twitter,

00:35:19.960 you really have three companies

00:35:21.160 who control 95 plus percent

00:35:23.200 of the information.

00:35:24.160 You can toss Amazon

00:35:25.060 and Apple in there

00:35:25.920 when they all get together

00:35:27.280 and say,

00:35:27.920 you can't talk

00:35:28.940 about the lab leak.

00:35:29.660 And then the real problem

00:35:30.560 is when you have conservatives,

00:35:32.260 when you have people

00:35:32.740 on the right saying,

00:35:33.380 okay, okay,

00:35:34.120 we'll avoid talking about that

00:35:35.600 because we want to be

00:35:36.540 in your good graces.

00:35:37.620 That's why we were forced

00:35:38.800 to go off and work with Rumble

00:35:40.100 and work with

00:35:40.960 at ladderwithcredit.com

00:35:42.020 slash mugler

00:35:42.500 because we were running up

00:35:43.200 against this all the time.

00:35:44.000 Megan, I'm talking

00:35:44.560 three, four, five suspensions.

00:35:46.280 I look back.

00:35:46.860 One of them was having

00:35:47.360 Carrie Lake on.

00:35:48.500 I know, which we did.

00:35:49.720 And we, whatever.

00:35:50.600 I look back at the reasons

00:35:51.760 you got suspended.

00:35:52.420 I'm like, what?

00:35:52.880 How, like, it's been absurd

00:35:55.000 what's happened to you

00:35:55.900 and you needed to find

00:35:57.000 a new platform.

00:35:57.620 I get it.

00:35:58.260 Wait, let's get to soundbite

00:35:59.320 number two

00:35:59.620 because this is equally good.

00:36:00.860 So Fauci, yes,

00:36:02.100 you used the word lie.

00:36:03.220 Yes.

00:36:03.740 So Fauci goes before Rand Paul,

00:36:05.260 before Congress,

00:36:05.860 before the U.S. Senate,

00:36:07.000 before, you know,

00:36:08.160 before the House Republicans

00:36:09.660 took over in the other chamber.

00:36:11.460 And Rand Paul's been

00:36:12.540 the best person on this.

00:36:13.760 I mean, he's amazing

00:36:14.260 to watch him try

00:36:14.800 to cross-examine Fauci

00:36:15.680 or anybody else in this

00:36:16.400 because he's a doctor.

00:36:17.080 He knows what he's talking about.

00:36:18.300 And Fauci repeatedly told him,

00:36:19.960 we didn't do

00:36:20.300 gain-of-function research.

00:36:21.740 We never did that.

00:36:22.880 We know it's not true.

00:36:23.800 The CDC and the NIH

00:36:25.520 has now admitted it.

00:36:27.260 Okay, it's not a matter

00:36:28.080 of Megyn Kelly's opinion.

00:36:29.440 They've admitted

00:36:30.060 that they were doing

00:36:30.840 gain-of-function research

00:36:31.720 through this Wuhan law.

00:36:32.920 So here's Redfield,

00:36:34.280 former CDC director,

00:36:35.240 on Fauci

00:36:35.920 and whether he's a liar.

00:36:37.560 I saw it too.

00:36:39.400 Do you think that

00:36:40.500 Dr. Fauci used this paper

00:36:42.720 to hide

00:36:43.700 the gain-of-function research

00:36:45.460 created,

00:36:46.160 the gain-of-function research

00:36:47.600 created this virus?

00:36:49.520 I can't talk about

00:36:50.840 Fauci's motivation.

00:36:52.740 Do you think

00:36:53.820 that the paper

00:36:54.440 does hide the truth?

00:36:55.900 I think it's

00:36:56.520 an inaccurate paper

00:36:57.500 that basically

00:36:58.200 was part of

00:36:59.140 a narrative

00:37:00.120 that they were creating.

00:37:01.280 Remember,

00:37:02.160 this pandemic

00:37:02.820 did not start

00:37:03.800 in January

00:37:04.800 at the seafood market.

00:37:05.800 We now know

00:37:06.420 there was infections

00:37:07.200 all the way back

00:37:07.780 into September.

00:37:08.880 This was a narrative

00:37:09.780 that was decided

00:37:10.680 that they were going to say

00:37:11.960 this came from

00:37:12.580 the wet market

00:37:13.200 and they were going to do

00:37:14.180 everything they could

00:37:14.920 to support it

00:37:15.560 to negate any discussion

00:37:16.780 about the possibility

00:37:17.640 that this came from a lie.

00:37:18.540 Do you think

00:37:19.360 that Dr. Fauci

00:37:20.200 intentionally lied

00:37:21.000 under oath

00:37:21.460 to Senator Paul

00:37:22.200 when he vehemently

00:37:23.200 denied NIH's funding

00:37:24.680 of gain-of-function research?

00:37:26.380 I think there's no doubt

00:37:27.320 that NIH was funding

00:37:28.320 gain-of-function research.

00:37:29.500 Is it likely

00:37:30.140 that American tax dollars

00:37:31.260 funded the gain-of-function research

00:37:32.880 that created this virus?

00:37:34.540 I think it did,

00:37:35.480 not only from NIH,

00:37:36.680 but from the State Department,

00:37:37.940 USAID,

00:37:38.620 and from DOD.

00:37:41.340 Amazing.

00:37:42.200 It's just,

00:37:42.800 I'm sorry,

00:37:43.540 it's gratifying

00:37:44.200 to hear a guy

00:37:44.780 in his position

00:37:45.480 actually say it.

00:37:47.580 Yeah,

00:37:47.840 and you know what?

00:37:48.280 Why aren't more?

00:37:49.680 That's my question.

00:37:50.580 I was just talking about this

00:37:51.180 with Patrick Bette David.

00:37:53.120 You know,

00:37:53.340 I travel,

00:37:53.940 and I still do stand-up shows

00:37:55.140 to give you an idea,

00:37:55.920 and there'll be thousands

00:37:56.900 and thousands of people

00:37:57.900 at these shows.

00:37:58.420 I'm incredibly grateful.

00:37:59.560 I don't say that as a brag.

00:38:00.540 I say it because I get to interact

00:38:01.720 with these people

00:38:02.320 on a regular basis.

00:38:03.820 I've never once met

00:38:05.080 a Lindsey Graham fan.

00:38:07.080 I've never once met

00:38:07.880 a Mitch McConnell fan.

00:38:08.800 I've never once met someone

00:38:10.360 who was enthusiastically

00:38:11.740 voting for Mitt Romney.

00:38:12.960 And you ask yourself,

00:38:13.700 how do these people

00:38:14.540 always get to positions of power

00:38:15.920 on the Republican side

00:38:16.960 when the majority

00:38:17.780 of the Republican Party

00:38:18.540 is conservative,

00:38:19.260 not just Republican?

00:38:20.240 And then how do none

00:38:21.140 of these people

00:38:21.880 get anything done

00:38:23.180 when it comes to big tech?

00:38:24.920 Isn't it a layup right now

00:38:26.220 when you have big tech

00:38:27.120 censoring and removing content

00:38:29.060 that we know beyond

00:38:30.060 any shadow of a doubt

00:38:31.080 is factually accurate?

00:38:32.520 Hey, hold on a second.

00:38:33.360 Are all those videos

00:38:34.020 about Assange up there?

00:38:35.200 Are all those videos

00:38:36.000 from Snowden still up there?

00:38:37.200 Think about that for a second.

00:38:38.140 There was that whistleblower.

00:38:39.020 I hope I'm not getting

00:38:39.780 the name wrong.

00:38:40.300 People will say it's racist.

00:38:41.260 I think it was Lin-Wen Liang

00:38:42.340 early on.

00:38:43.540 What happened?

00:38:44.440 That person disappeared, right?

00:38:45.860 Why isn't the,

00:38:46.540 where's the love affair

00:38:47.440 with the media

00:38:48.400 and this whistleblower?

00:38:49.540 And my anger,

00:38:50.940 I'm telling you,

00:38:51.420 you just said it's refreshing.

00:38:52.400 It is refreshing.

00:38:53.260 Megan, it shouldn't be refreshing.

00:38:55.060 Pardon me,

00:38:55.520 it shouldn't fucking be refreshing

00:38:57.300 to see someone say,

00:38:58.700 hey, hold on a second.

00:38:59.880 You lied, right?

00:39:01.420 Hey, hold on a second.

00:39:02.700 Did we fund gain of function?

00:39:03.820 Which we all know.

00:39:05.280 It was obvious to everybody.

00:39:06.900 It shouldn't be refreshing

00:39:08.000 to see.

00:39:08.380 My God,

00:39:08.720 there might be a conservative

00:39:09.540 who actually tries

00:39:10.400 to do something here.

00:39:12.000 YouTube, Facebook,

00:39:13.300 at one point Twitter.

00:39:14.560 These guys should be

00:39:15.340 in the hot seat.

00:39:16.200 Their tax protections,

00:39:17.880 their tax protected status

00:39:19.020 with section 230

00:39:20.200 should be gone so fast

00:39:21.320 it'll make your head spin.

00:39:22.060 But guess what?

00:39:22.820 You're the senator

00:39:23.360 to step out of line

00:39:24.060 or if you're the big

00:39:24.860 conservative company

00:39:25.580 to step out of line,

00:39:26.540 they might just tag

00:39:27.300 your content a little,

00:39:28.040 they might just tag

00:39:28.620 your content with warnings

00:39:29.680 a little bit more.

00:39:30.620 It shouldn't be refreshing.

00:39:32.500 It shouldn't be

00:39:33.440 the exception to the rule.

00:39:35.000 It should be the rule

00:39:36.700 for crying out loud.

00:39:37.740 And we have been here

00:39:38.780 from the very beginning

00:39:39.820 and I don't just say that

00:39:41.180 like a psychic saying,

00:39:42.800 oh, we saw it coming.

00:39:43.560 No, you know what happened?

00:39:44.700 The first two weeks

00:39:45.520 of lockdown.

00:39:46.520 We did this, by the way,

00:39:48.160 and every other,

00:39:48.940 including at Fox News

00:39:50.020 and including at these networks

00:39:51.220 and it made me sick

00:39:51.960 to my stomach.

00:39:52.540 They were broadcasting

00:39:53.140 from their basement

00:39:53.740 or they stopped.

00:39:54.740 I went on air

00:39:55.620 and I said, look,

00:39:56.680 we don't know

00:39:57.120 what's going to happen

00:39:57.720 at this point.

00:39:58.180 We know there's

00:39:58.440 a two week lockdown.

00:39:59.200 I spoke with my employees.

00:40:00.240 I asked if they wanted

00:40:01.320 to stay home.

00:40:02.320 I said, depending on

00:40:03.260 how long you stay home,

00:40:04.400 we might not be able

00:40:05.280 to pay you

00:40:06.620 after about a month or two.

00:40:07.560 We don't know,

00:40:08.280 but I'm coming into work.

00:40:09.840 We started doing two a days

00:40:11.000 because people were

00:40:11.600 quarantined at home.

00:40:12.880 We did the show twice a day

00:40:14.440 to try and serve the audience.

00:40:15.620 And by the way,

00:40:16.100 that very first show,

00:40:17.060 we did a parody

00:40:17.640 called Kung Flu Fighting

00:40:18.900 about the fact

00:40:19.880 that it came from a lab

00:40:20.700 and we were suspended

00:40:21.900 from YouTube.

00:40:22.620 It shouldn't be refreshing.

00:40:24.180 We shouldn't be

00:40:24.820 the only people here

00:40:25.880 taking these hits.

00:40:27.220 Every single

00:40:28.280 self-professed conservative

00:40:29.580 should be out there doing it.

00:40:31.480 I'm a comic

00:40:32.200 for crying out loud.

00:40:33.460 Senators,

00:40:33.940 with the exception of Rand Paul,

00:40:35.260 they can't do anything

00:40:36.140 about this shit.

00:40:36.900 But that's what angers me.

00:40:38.240 It shouldn't be refreshing.

00:40:39.520 We should be desensitized.

00:40:41.360 I really hope that

00:40:42.300 and I really hope YouTube

00:40:43.940 uses this as an opportunity

00:40:45.160 to look back

00:40:45.800 at some of those decisions,

00:40:47.120 not just you,

00:40:47.900 but many others

00:40:48.500 who had censored

00:40:49.080 for similar comments

00:40:50.000 and recognizes

00:40:51.680 that it was wrong.

00:40:52.960 It was wrong on the merits.

00:40:54.520 It was wrong

00:40:55.340 in its approach

00:40:56.400 and it's cost them.

00:40:58.000 It's cost them talent like you.

00:40:59.100 It's cost them followers.

00:41:00.360 I understand

00:41:01.160 they've got their parameters

00:41:02.060 that they want to play with

00:41:02.820 and that's their business model,

00:41:04.520 but only the best businesses survive

00:41:06.660 and the best businesses

00:41:07.780 reevaluate their protocols.

00:41:09.960 It's an illegal model.

00:41:11.820 When they've been proven wrong,

00:41:12.860 they reevaluate.

00:41:13.260 I don't want to get back

00:41:13.800 into YouTube

00:41:14.100 because we already did that,

00:41:14.900 but let me just do one.

00:41:16.160 But I'm saying it's an illegal model.

00:41:18.060 This is the thing.

00:41:18.640 When people talk about

00:41:19.320 the world economic form.

00:41:19.400 It's not illegal for them to say

00:41:20.560 we don't like what Steven Crowder says

00:41:22.300 and we don't want him on.

00:41:23.180 No, no.

00:41:23.680 It absolutely is.

00:41:24.540 It absolutely is for them

00:41:25.580 to act as a publisher

00:41:26.340 when they claim

00:41:26.760 that they're a platform.

00:41:27.360 It absolutely is illegal.

00:41:28.480 They either need to decide

00:41:29.840 that you are a platform

00:41:31.160 or you are a publisher.

00:41:32.500 And if you say that people

00:41:33.220 are not allowed to even

00:41:34.320 at that point,

00:41:35.320 quote, sources, references

00:41:36.560 and talk about a whistleblower

00:41:38.220 in China saying

00:41:39.080 that it came from a lab

00:41:39.940 lest you be removed

00:41:40.900 and use your livelihood

00:41:41.680 while they benefit

00:41:42.380 from a tax-exempt status

00:41:43.480 as a benefit of a Section 230,

00:41:46.020 that is not legal.

00:41:47.700 The only thing is

00:41:48.360 no one has done anything about it.

00:41:49.840 That's the issue.

00:41:51.040 Well, it's being debated right now.

00:41:52.840 But let me go stick

00:41:54.500 on Redfield for a second

00:41:55.380 because here's the third thing.

00:41:57.280 He talked about,

00:41:57.960 you heard him reference there.

00:41:58.640 And I don't want to skip over this

00:41:59.700 because that is the first time

00:42:01.260 I've heard anybody say this

00:42:02.480 just in the last line

00:42:04.240 of that last soundbite.

00:42:05.220 The question was,

00:42:06.120 is it likely that

00:42:07.000 American tax dollars

00:42:08.360 funded the gain-of-function research

00:42:11.000 that created this virus?

00:42:14.620 That's where all other officials

00:42:16.020 have drawn the line.

00:42:17.100 Most people will say

00:42:17.820 we were funding

00:42:18.780 gain-of-function research.

00:42:20.260 No one's saying

00:42:20.960 we funded the gain-of-function research

00:42:23.640 that produced the coronavirus,

00:42:25.680 this coronavirus.

00:42:26.520 And he said,

00:42:27.940 I think it did.

00:42:30.560 I think it did.

00:42:31.500 American tax dollars

00:42:32.400 funded the gain-of-function research

00:42:33.620 that created this virus.

00:42:35.100 That is the first I've heard

00:42:35.860 somebody as high as Redfield

00:42:37.140 say that.

00:42:37.740 That's big.

00:42:38.480 So then he goes on

00:42:39.100 to talk about how

00:42:39.920 we know,

00:42:40.740 we know what was happening

00:42:41.680 in that lab.

00:42:42.880 They won't be transparent about it.

00:42:44.860 We won't hold China accountable.

00:42:46.800 Trump didn't do it.

00:42:48.000 Biden won't do it.

00:42:49.100 And he references back

00:42:50.020 to that September 19.

00:42:51.380 We were all living our lives over here

00:42:52.780 not thinking about COVID

00:42:53.680 and how he knows

00:42:55.100 what was happening

00:42:55.880 in that lab

00:42:56.340 at that time,

00:42:57.320 SOT3.

00:42:58.840 In September of 2019,

00:43:01.940 three things happened

00:43:03.040 in that lab.

00:43:04.580 One is they deleted

00:43:05.900 the sequences.

00:43:07.300 It was highly irregular.

00:43:09.280 Researchers don't usually

00:43:10.360 like to do that.

00:43:11.620 Second thing they did

00:43:12.620 was they changed

00:43:13.320 the command and control

00:43:14.680 of the lab

00:43:15.220 from the civilian control

00:43:16.260 to the military control.

00:43:18.300 Highly unusual.

00:43:19.560 And the third thing they did,

00:43:20.660 which I think is really telling,

00:43:22.540 is they led a contract

00:43:23.680 to redo the ventilation system

00:43:25.060 in that laboratory.

00:43:26.640 So I think clearly

00:43:28.000 there was strong evidence

00:43:29.160 that there was

00:43:29.700 a significant event

00:43:30.600 that happened

00:43:31.080 in that laboratory

00:43:31.760 in September.

00:43:33.440 Oh my God.

00:43:34.380 All right, wait.

00:43:34.960 Let me shift this though

00:43:35.800 to something that

00:43:36.480 I haven't asked you about.

00:43:37.780 So we can see that

00:43:38.540 they're corrupt.

00:43:40.040 The CDC misled us,

00:43:41.020 the NIH misled us,

00:43:42.100 Fauci misled us,

00:43:42.880 the media and big tech

00:43:43.840 100% assisted.

00:43:46.900 It's not totally dissimilar

00:43:48.640 from what's happening

00:43:49.500 right now at Fox

00:43:50.720 with Tucker

00:43:51.260 in January 6th

00:43:52.580 where we were fed

00:43:53.400 one narrative

00:43:53.900 by the January 6th committee

00:43:55.120 and now Tucker's

00:43:56.700 gotten his hands

00:43:57.180 on these tapes

00:43:57.700 and he's offering

00:43:58.740 more perspective,

00:43:59.840 more tape

00:44:00.280 that we haven't seen it before.

00:44:01.760 And last night

00:44:02.160 he revealed on a show

00:44:02.940 that that tape

00:44:03.500 of QAnon Shaman

00:44:04.500 who is spending

00:44:07.060 41 months in prison,

00:44:08.260 he pleaded guilty.

00:44:09.320 I said the other day

00:44:10.320 on the air,

00:44:10.600 I'm sure his lawyers

00:44:11.500 obtained that tape.

00:44:12.500 You would have to produce

00:44:13.660 that as the government

00:44:14.380 when you're going after

00:44:16.060 a man like that

00:44:17.040 because it's potentially

00:44:17.700 exculpatory.

00:44:18.640 It shows the overall setting

00:44:20.060 in which the alleged crime

00:44:21.460 was committed

00:44:21.900 and his state of mind

00:44:22.860 and why he might have

00:44:23.580 misunderstood whether he had

00:44:24.660 the right to be there

00:44:25.280 or not and so on.

00:44:26.680 Tucker revealed last night

00:44:27.540 it was not produced

00:44:28.580 to his attorneys,

00:44:30.540 to Shaman's attorneys

00:44:31.800 and their outrage.

00:44:33.940 She had the lawyer

00:44:34.380 on last night saying

00:44:35.200 this is absolutely

00:44:36.080 improper and unfair

00:44:37.220 and the media's only response

00:44:38.860 to all these tapes

00:44:39.640 and so on, Stephen,

00:44:40.500 is Tucker's bad.

00:44:42.460 Tucker's bad.

00:44:43.200 He's downplaying January 6th.

00:44:44.480 No one gives a damn

00:44:45.420 that there's a whole side

00:44:46.680 of this story

00:44:47.160 that has not been aired

00:44:48.280 including by the very committee

00:44:49.300 in which they put

00:44:49.880 so much trust.

00:44:51.560 Yeah.

00:44:52.360 Well, it's almost like

00:44:53.700 and I want to be clear

00:44:54.460 this is not any kind

00:44:55.040 of a call to action

00:44:55.720 or I don't think

00:44:57.480 of this fondly at all.

00:44:58.560 I really do.

00:44:59.380 I look at it fearfully.

00:45:01.700 It's almost like

00:45:02.340 if the media was trying

00:45:03.480 to create so much civil unrest,

00:45:05.040 there's some kind

00:45:05.620 of a civil war in the future,

00:45:06.720 they couldn't do it

00:45:07.620 more effectively at this point.

00:45:09.640 The way you do that

00:45:10.380 is by gaslighting people,

00:45:11.460 by telling them

00:45:12.040 that what they're living,

00:45:12.800 what they're experiencing

00:45:13.520 isn't real,

00:45:14.160 whether it's the economy

00:45:15.020 saying actually

00:45:15.640 it's better than ever.

00:45:16.600 I mean, I would,

00:45:17.120 one thing I know

00:45:17.880 that you were right

00:45:18.440 that Trump wasn't able

00:45:19.200 to do enough with China

00:45:20.560 but a lot of people

00:45:21.380 maybe at the beginning

00:45:22.160 of that pandemic,

00:45:22.900 for example,

00:45:23.580 he shredded the WHO

00:45:24.820 and said at the beginning

00:45:25.820 that China,

00:45:26.660 there was a high likelihood,

00:45:27.560 right, China.

00:45:28.220 He kept saying

00:45:28.680 at high degree of confidence

00:45:30.100 that it came from

00:45:31.280 the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

00:45:33.020 I want to hear the,

00:45:33.740 can you do the Trump invitation

00:45:34.900 while you're there

00:45:35.380 because I just,

00:45:36.140 nobody does it better.

00:45:36.860 Look, I'm not saying it

00:45:38.100 because it's China.

00:45:39.360 That's where it comes from,

00:45:40.180 okay, China.

00:45:40.700 And I would never say

00:45:41.320 that's what people,

00:45:42.080 they all say that it comes

00:45:43.040 from China, China.

00:45:44.740 And he said that

00:45:45.620 and people said,

00:45:46.240 no, no, that's not true.

00:45:47.260 Here's the thing,

00:45:47.880 Donald Trump's not a virologist.

00:45:49.680 He's not.

00:45:50.440 So he's relying on people

00:45:51.480 to hopefully fight for America,

00:45:53.140 to hopefully fight for the truth.

00:45:54.300 This QAnon shaman,

00:45:55.160 by the way,

00:45:55.500 seems like he might be

00:45:57.080 a little bit touched, right?

00:45:58.280 He was given a tour.

00:45:59.740 He had people who were there

00:46:00.660 who were supposed to fight for him.

00:46:01.820 They didn't.

00:46:02.360 This is why people,

00:46:03.540 and this is why Trump

00:46:04.100 may win the primaries,

00:46:05.380 by the way, again,

00:46:06.280 for all of his faults.

00:46:07.400 And by the way,

00:46:08.040 he has pros, he has cons,

00:46:09.260 so does Asantus.

00:46:09.940 I don't want to get into

00:46:10.640 the pros and cons of each,

00:46:11.600 but people felt like

00:46:12.520 for the first time,

00:46:13.620 even if it was out of ego,

00:46:15.260 someone was willing

00:46:16.160 to fight for them.

00:46:17.800 And that is what

00:46:18.580 we are desperate for.

00:46:19.520 We all know that

00:46:20.480 what's coming to light

00:46:21.240 right now is true.

00:46:22.540 It shouldn't have to get

00:46:23.760 to the point

00:46:24.320 where it is absolutely

00:46:25.300 undeniable

00:46:26.240 where they're caught

00:46:26.960 with their Schwanson

00:46:27.760 in a vice

00:46:28.500 and they can't

00:46:29.940 deny it any longer.

00:46:31.100 People, this guy

00:46:31.880 should have lawyers

00:46:32.500 fighting for him.

00:46:33.560 You know what happens

00:46:34.040 if they don't provide that,

00:46:34.940 if they don't provide that tape?

00:46:36.420 You make them provide it.

00:46:38.060 You push.

00:46:38.740 That's your job as a lawyer.

00:46:40.180 I don't know why.

00:46:41.020 I don't know why.

00:46:41.580 Maybe they're not

00:46:42.020 very good lawyers.

00:46:42.840 I have no idea.

00:46:43.660 I know what my lawyer does.

00:46:44.960 I know what we do here.

00:46:46.360 I know we were talking

00:46:47.100 about this from the very,

00:46:48.440 very beginning.

00:46:49.320 And that's why

00:46:49.740 our signups have been incredible.

00:46:50.760 I'm always so grateful for it.

00:46:51.860 And that's why

00:46:52.200 a lot of people feel

00:46:52.840 the same way

00:46:53.260 about Donald Trump.

00:46:55.300 They fight for them.

00:46:56.720 It shouldn't be refreshing.

00:46:58.200 It should be the norm.

00:46:59.360 And yeah, look,

00:46:59.900 they're saying this

00:47:00.300 about Tucker Carlson

00:47:00.980 to go back to January 6th.

00:47:02.720 We did an entire episode

00:47:04.580 immediately

00:47:05.160 because they were saying,

00:47:06.400 I don't know if you remember this,

00:47:07.100 they said seven officers

00:47:08.000 died January 6th.

00:47:09.700 That's ridiculous.

00:47:10.300 You can find this.

00:47:11.160 Then they said five.

00:47:12.320 Then they said one.

00:47:13.200 It's zero.

00:47:14.200 It's zero.

00:47:14.720 And here's my question to you

00:47:15.600 as someone who's a lawyer

00:47:16.380 who understands the law

00:47:17.240 a little bit better than I do.

00:47:18.480 This is worse than entrapment

00:47:19.920 when you watch.

00:47:20.700 And I get it.

00:47:21.200 There were some people,

00:47:21.840 of course,

00:47:22.140 there was vandalism,

00:47:22.740 there was trespassing.

00:47:23.380 I'm not saying that

00:47:23.820 everybody there is innocent.

00:47:24.760 But an insurrection,

00:47:25.660 come on.

00:47:25.940 You show up with the weapon,

00:47:26.860 at least.

00:47:27.100 And I don't mean a flagpole.

00:47:28.760 But my question to you

00:47:29.900 was entrapment.

00:47:31.520 No, of course it wasn't.

00:47:32.980 Entrapment is bad, right?

00:47:34.260 That's where you basically,

00:47:34.960 for people who don't know,

00:47:35.920 you lay a trap

00:47:36.540 and you hope someone

00:47:37.140 commits a crime

00:47:37.720 and then you catch them with it.

00:47:39.960 But you have feds here

00:47:40.840 who are not just entrapping.

00:47:42.520 They were committing crimes

00:47:44.220 themselves on camera

00:47:45.740 in order to get other people

00:47:47.320 to follow them.

00:47:48.680 What do we even call it?

00:47:49.420 Is that beyond entrapment?

00:47:50.660 What's the term for that?

00:47:51.900 Because that's on camera.

00:47:53.560 That's another thing

00:47:54.400 that the January 6th committee

00:47:55.820 chose not to focus on at all.

00:47:57.580 And it's not just because

00:47:58.720 they didn't have any

00:47:59.260 real Republicans on there.

00:48:00.320 It's because they had no interest

00:48:01.220 in airing any of that.

00:48:02.500 That's why what Tucker's doing

00:48:03.460 is important.

00:48:04.100 It's why Fox's decision

00:48:05.780 to ignore Tucker's reporting

00:48:07.280 is a mistake.

00:48:08.960 You don't have to agree

00:48:09.900 with everything Tucker says

00:48:10.800 about this tape

00:48:11.520 in order to own the tape

00:48:13.040 and be glad you got it

00:48:14.020 and ride your exclusive

00:48:14.920 and bring it in front of the world.

00:48:16.240 Nobody else will.

00:48:17.580 That's I would venture to say

00:48:19.240 that's a partisan move, too,

00:48:20.400 because they're worried

00:48:21.680 bringing up January 6th

00:48:22.800 is going to hurt the Republicans.

00:48:23.800 Well, that's not your job.

00:48:24.960 Your job's not to run cover

00:48:25.960 for the Republicans.

00:48:27.180 Your job is just to tell the truth

00:48:28.920 and cover the news.

00:48:30.420 And you have an exclusive

00:48:31.240 and you should ride it,

00:48:32.380 just like Steven Crowder

00:48:33.300 will ride the ratings

00:48:35.220 of the Mug Club

00:48:36.220 and rumble

00:48:37.220 to king status yet again.

00:48:39.900 It's wonderful to see you back.

00:48:41.080 I can't wait to watch.

00:48:42.480 All the best to you, my friend.

00:48:44.160 Thank you.

00:48:44.520 You too, Megan.

00:48:45.600 All right.

00:48:45.960 See you soon.

00:48:46.380 Up next, Bridget Phetasy

00:48:48.100 back on the show.

00:48:50.400 Our next guest is Bridget Phetasy.

00:48:55.020 She has a great show on YouTube

00:48:56.200 called Dumpster Fire.

00:48:57.720 In addition to her podcast,

00:48:58.920 Walk-Ins Welcome

00:48:59.800 and Substack Beyond Parody

00:49:02.300 with Bridget Phetasy.

00:49:03.240 She's busy.

00:49:04.160 She's very busy.

00:49:05.500 And we appreciate her

00:49:06.560 making time for us today.

00:49:08.000 Bridget, welcome back.

00:49:09.620 Thank you for having me.

00:49:10.500 It's always a pleasure.

00:49:11.800 Yeah.

00:49:12.080 So you have a show on YouTube.

00:49:13.400 I have a show on YouTube.

00:49:14.560 Steven Crowder is not a fan of YouTube,

00:49:16.200 but we should say for the record

00:49:17.360 that so far it's working out

00:49:18.840 okay for us so far.

00:49:20.380 Our platform over here

00:49:21.220 has been okay,

00:49:22.340 though I totally get

00:49:23.220 why it doesn't work for him.

00:49:25.840 I can't believe you could afford him, Megan.

00:49:27.520 How'd you even get him on your show?

00:49:29.100 Oh my God.

00:49:29.820 I love him.

00:49:30.840 We go way back.

00:49:32.280 And his first interview

00:49:33.260 on this show

00:49:33.760 when we first launched,

00:49:34.680 much like yours,

00:49:35.720 was one of my favorite interviews.

00:49:37.600 We had such a long talk

00:49:38.780 and he told me about

00:49:40.300 how he was deeply hurt

00:49:41.720 because we had gotten to know each other

00:49:43.740 a little bit at Fox News

00:49:44.800 and then he heard me reference him

00:49:46.560 years later as like some YouTuber.

00:49:48.260 And he was like,

00:49:48.840 what the?

00:49:49.560 And I had explained to him

00:49:50.500 that I have a touch

00:49:51.200 of that Brad Pitt thing

00:49:52.160 where you don't remember people.

00:49:53.640 I really don't

00:49:54.440 unless I've met somebody

00:49:55.280 like 10 times.

00:49:56.280 It's really hard for me to remember.

00:49:57.400 Anyway, love Steven

00:49:58.840 and I'm really glad

00:49:59.880 that he's found a new home

00:50:01.400 that works for him.

00:50:02.160 A new home.

00:50:02.380 All right.

00:50:02.640 I've got to start

00:50:03.240 with this breaking news,

00:50:05.400 my lady.

00:50:07.060 Daily Mail exclusive.

00:50:08.920 Palace expects Harry and Meghan

00:50:10.820 to attend the coronation.

00:50:12.840 The royal staff

00:50:13.580 are drawing up seating

00:50:14.680 and dining plans

00:50:15.680 right now

00:50:16.180 for the Duke and Duchess

00:50:17.260 and presumably

00:50:18.260 for their little prince and princess

00:50:20.320 who have officially adopted

00:50:21.840 those titles.

00:50:23.160 Not standing concern

00:50:24.040 that would not be granted

00:50:24.980 because the royals are racist.

00:50:27.300 They say it's not official official

00:50:29.120 but that it's happening.

00:50:31.460 The negotiations continue

00:50:33.320 around which events

00:50:34.220 the couple will attend,

00:50:35.480 where they will sit,

00:50:36.620 what they will wear

00:50:37.400 and of course

00:50:38.140 there's security.

00:50:39.220 They think the negotiations

00:50:40.020 will go right to the wire.

00:50:42.140 It could of course

00:50:43.240 just be just in case

00:50:45.580 but it's clearly not a no

00:50:47.700 and a second source

00:50:48.840 with knowledge

00:50:49.260 of Harry and Meghan's thoughts

00:50:50.340 tells the Daily Mail

00:50:51.260 that the indication is

00:50:53.020 that they are attending

00:50:55.080 although there's plenty

00:50:56.060 that needs to be worked on.

00:50:57.480 First, you're shocked,

00:50:58.900 I'm sure shocked,

00:50:59.780 that they have not

00:51:00.780 turned down this opportunity

00:51:02.580 to be on camera

00:51:04.040 in front of the world.

00:51:04.920 I'm shocked.

00:51:06.160 I'm shocked, I tell you.

00:51:08.200 They just want to have

00:51:09.240 their cake and eat it too.

00:51:10.480 They want to be able to be like

00:51:12.040 this is the most racist,

00:51:14.000 horrible family ever

00:51:15.600 but also can we please

00:51:16.900 attend all of the functions

00:51:18.060 and get all of the press

00:51:19.260 and make it about us somehow.

00:51:21.860 It's, I can't take it seriously.

00:51:24.260 I can't wait until they're bouncing

00:51:25.760 little Prince Archie

00:51:27.000 and Princess Lilibet

00:51:28.120 on their knees

00:51:28.800 in front of their racist grandpa

00:51:30.760 and their racist grandma.

00:51:33.280 It's awkward.

00:51:34.480 That's awkward.

00:51:36.140 I, I, good on them.

00:51:38.180 They've figured out

00:51:39.120 how to really monetize victimhood

00:51:41.260 and still stay in the family somehow.

00:51:43.920 I don't understand how or why

00:51:46.520 but they're, they're,

00:51:48.160 they've got a pretty good grift going.

00:51:50.580 Don't they?

00:51:51.540 So, speaking of grift

00:51:52.920 and the royals,

00:51:54.300 Harry, first of all,

00:51:56.740 he does this weird therapy session

00:51:58.480 with this guy

00:51:59.440 who I, I saw you

00:52:00.660 wrote something about this.

00:52:01.640 You know this guy.

00:52:02.260 I never heard of this guy before.

00:52:03.340 It's like a guru kind of guy

00:52:04.780 who therapized Harry

00:52:06.280 and in their live exchange,

00:52:08.300 which you could watch

00:52:09.220 for the low, low price of $33.

00:52:10.980 This is what the Prince

00:52:11.940 has been reduced to.

00:52:13.780 I diagnosed him with ADD.

00:52:15.900 So that's what Harry did on Saturday.

00:52:17.560 Then yesterday,

00:52:18.940 he attended some,

00:52:20.480 oh, it's like some summit

00:52:22.780 where it's $1,000 ahead

00:52:24.800 with the CEO of Better Up.

00:52:27.460 This guy, Alexi Robichaux,

00:52:30.900 who urged business leaders

00:52:33.120 in the room, Bridget,

00:52:34.080 to reimagine work as a playscape.

00:52:37.120 That's what Harry and Meghan are doing.

00:52:38.440 They are reimagining work.

00:52:40.680 All that ribbon cutting

00:52:41.940 and helping the poor was boring.

00:52:44.700 Now they're in their new Montecito playscape

00:52:47.200 so they can make partnerships

00:52:48.220 with weird gurus for $33 a head

00:52:50.680 and with people who run Better Up

00:52:52.720 for $1,000 a head

00:52:54.020 and pat themselves on the back

00:52:55.620 for being altruistic.

00:52:57.460 I mean, only people who don't work

00:53:00.240 could reimagine work as a playscape.

00:53:04.020 That's just not a thing.

00:53:06.340 We, you know, I wasn't going to waitress

00:53:09.320 as somebody who was like,

00:53:10.720 how am I going to reimagine

00:53:11.760 this as a playscape?

00:53:12.900 I just had to go do my job

00:53:15.100 to the best of my ability

00:53:16.460 with a smile on my face and go home.

00:53:19.200 And that's what everybody does.

00:53:21.440 Not everybody expects work

00:53:23.320 to be this magical play place.

00:53:26.140 It's usually something we do

00:53:28.040 to provide for ourselves

00:53:29.700 and our families.

00:53:30.480 And then we have time

00:53:33.460 with our families and friends

00:53:34.700 outside of it

00:53:35.660 where we get to play

00:53:36.560 and enjoy ourselves.

00:53:38.640 So true.

00:53:39.580 It's called Job, J-O-B.

00:53:41.160 He's never had one.

00:53:42.420 So he should spend some time

00:53:43.680 thinking about that.

00:53:44.400 But of course,

00:53:45.100 at this meeting with Robichaux

00:53:46.940 of Better Up,

00:53:48.080 Harry takes the opportunity

00:53:49.060 to go woke on us saying,

00:53:51.880 look, I've been lucky enough

00:53:53.260 to be surrounded by strong,

00:53:54.600 empowered, confident women

00:53:55.540 all my life.

00:53:56.140 I wish that more women

00:53:57.480 would have higher leadership roles,

00:54:00.300 less testosterone in the room.

00:54:02.680 I think that would be a good thing.

00:54:04.540 Oh, please.

00:54:05.620 I'm so sick of his lecturing.

00:54:07.680 Like, OK,

00:54:09.000 so what we need is less testosterone.

00:54:11.000 This is what Harry's going to sit there

00:54:12.240 and diagnose how how,

00:54:14.260 I guess, backward

00:54:14.820 we are here in America still.

00:54:16.760 And he's going to be our leader

00:54:18.100 to take us out of it.

00:54:19.920 I don't I cannot imagine

00:54:22.160 a man who has been more emasculated

00:54:24.260 than that than Harry.

00:54:25.940 I don't know what happened to him.

00:54:27.900 Something he's brainwashed

00:54:29.980 or something.

00:54:30.760 This is Stockholm syndrome.

00:54:32.600 Someone help him.

00:54:34.340 Someone help Harry.

00:54:35.700 This is a soldier.

00:54:37.260 What happened to you?

00:54:38.360 What are you talking about?

00:54:39.520 You used to be

00:54:40.380 you were in the military

00:54:41.780 flying helicopters

00:54:43.400 and now you're telling the world

00:54:45.320 that there's too much

00:54:46.260 testosterone.

00:54:48.040 It's so true.

00:54:49.380 I wish I had been in that room

00:54:50.920 and I would have yelled,

00:54:52.280 then get out,

00:54:53.500 get out,

00:54:54.380 leave.

00:54:55.380 We're done with craziness.

00:54:57.620 Yeah.

00:54:58.280 I don't understand

00:54:59.580 like therapy

00:55:00.260 as entertainment

00:55:01.200 either.

00:55:02.180 The using yourself

00:55:03.860 to be therapized.

00:55:05.000 And just to be clear,

00:55:05.620 I don't know

00:55:06.520 Gabor Mate.

00:55:07.520 I know of him

00:55:08.660 and his work

00:55:09.540 and I used to think

00:55:11.140 some of his stuff

00:55:11.980 was really good

00:55:12.980 and then now

00:55:14.420 I blame him

00:55:15.160 for the reason

00:55:15.800 that trauma

00:55:16.780 is everywhere.

00:55:18.080 This little T trauma.

00:55:19.820 Everybody's traumatized.

00:55:21.140 You traumatize your child

00:55:22.540 if you let them cry it out.

00:55:24.000 They'll have scars

00:55:25.440 on their psyche forever.

00:55:27.440 There's,

00:55:28.060 and we'll kind of

00:55:29.060 trot these things out

00:55:30.040 with very little evidence

00:55:31.420 and that just drives me crazy

00:55:34.180 because now I see

00:55:35.100 everybody everywhere

00:55:36.340 saying,

00:55:37.220 oh,

00:55:37.360 it's my trauma,

00:55:38.140 it's my trauma

00:55:38.760 and a lot of this

00:55:39.760 I kind of blame on

00:55:40.900 Gabor Mate,

00:55:41.940 the guy who did his,

00:55:42.980 his public therapy session,

00:55:44.840 which also seems

00:55:45.720 very unethical

00:55:46.780 for somebody to be doing.

00:55:48.880 Mm-hmm.

00:55:49.420 No, it does.

00:55:50.060 I agree.

00:55:50.520 Like who,

00:55:51.180 what kind of a therapist

00:55:52.040 therapizes you

00:55:52.780 and diagnoses you live

00:55:54.000 for $33 a head?

00:55:55.300 It's very weird.

00:55:56.680 It's unethical.

00:55:57.760 If you,

00:55:58.380 if this person

00:55:59.400 is actually traumatized,

00:56:00.660 which I do believe

00:56:01.520 he's had some trauma

00:56:02.560 in his life.

00:56:03.280 Absolutely.

00:56:04.420 But why would you publicly

00:56:06.620 try and put him

00:56:08.420 under the microscope

00:56:09.480 like that

00:56:10.060 while you're diagnosing him?

00:56:11.340 This is not something

00:56:12.460 any kind of therapist

00:56:14.600 with any ethics

00:56:15.740 would ever do.

00:56:17.280 Mm-hmm.

00:56:17.860 Harry doesn't,

00:56:18.560 he seems listless.

00:56:19.800 He doesn't seem like

00:56:20.940 he knows what his next step is.

00:56:22.900 It's not sitting

00:56:23.940 for $33 a head

00:56:25.040 with this,

00:56:25.560 with the guru

00:56:26.140 or $1,000 a head

00:56:27.660 with the workplace

00:56:28.720 needs to be a place,

00:56:30.140 Gape.

00:56:30.380 guy.

00:56:32.120 He,

00:56:32.280 he really like,

00:56:33.220 to me,

00:56:33.840 he doesn't have

00:56:34.360 a clear mission.

00:56:35.440 You could say the same

00:56:36.160 about Tom Brady

00:56:36.860 who's been kind of like,

00:56:38.620 kind of listless

00:56:39.560 since he left,

00:56:40.460 you know,

00:56:40.900 the,

00:56:41.060 the NFL.

00:56:42.520 I almost said NBA.

00:56:44.400 The NFL, right?

00:56:45.680 That's the next move.

00:56:47.160 Didn't he just postpone

00:56:48.200 his Fox Sports

00:56:50.120 announcer contract

00:56:51.380 to do like

00:56:52.220 something else?

00:56:53.360 I don't know.

00:56:53.620 I just feel like

00:56:54.140 these people who come

00:56:55.380 from these huge

00:56:56.140 institutions of power,

00:56:57.620 they seem to struggle

00:56:58.680 unless they have

00:56:59.500 like really good

00:57:00.080 advisors.

00:57:00.520 They seem to struggle

00:57:01.300 figuring out

00:57:02.080 where to land it.

00:57:03.420 Megan,

00:57:03.660 we should start

00:57:04.500 some kind of business

00:57:06.160 to help these

00:57:07.120 listless men

00:57:08.060 find their way.

00:57:09.680 I know what they can do.

00:57:10.900 Women's sports.

00:57:11.580 That is the place

00:57:15.820 for them.

00:57:16.380 Tom Brady will pivot.

00:57:17.640 He's going to join

00:57:18.660 the WNBA.

00:57:20.680 He should totally

00:57:21.680 join women's tennis.

00:57:22.880 I've been saying

00:57:23.480 for a while now.

00:57:24.760 That's how we need

00:57:25.500 to put an end

00:57:26.040 to this nonsense.

00:57:26.560 You need a male athlete

00:57:29.060 with some,

00:57:29.620 you know,

00:57:30.140 talent to join

00:57:31.620 one of the favorite

00:57:32.560 women's sports

00:57:33.360 and that will be

00:57:33.880 the end of this nonsense.

00:57:35.980 There was just a story.

00:57:37.020 Well,

00:57:37.160 hold on.

00:57:37.360 I had it here

00:57:37.800 in my Steven Crowder packet

00:57:39.180 about a weightlifter.

00:57:40.600 This is a weightlifter.

00:57:42.400 They're letting a male,

00:57:43.800 biological male weightlifters

00:57:45.100 as he's trans,

00:57:46.380 compete against

00:57:47.340 biological women

00:57:48.300 and weightlifting.

00:57:50.060 I mean,

00:57:50.160 what could possibly go wrong?

00:57:51.860 Hold on.

00:57:52.220 I saw this story

00:57:54.000 and it makes me

00:57:55.020 want to lose my mind.

00:57:56.540 This is embarrassing.

00:57:58.160 How are you not embarrassed,

00:57:59.920 first of all,

00:58:00.640 as the trans woman

00:58:02.680 biological man

00:58:04.740 who's taking on

00:58:05.660 these women?

00:58:06.520 Do you not have

00:58:07.460 any sense of shame?

00:58:08.660 It's so shameless.

00:58:09.720 I don't understand.

00:58:12.200 Okay,

00:58:12.380 Minnesota.

00:58:13.320 In Minnesota,

00:58:14.480 it was a state court ruling

00:58:16.800 allowing this.

00:58:17.980 USA powerlifting

00:58:19.000 must allow

00:58:20.420 male athletes

00:58:21.580 who identify as female

00:58:22.720 to compete

00:58:23.880 against women.

00:58:26.060 The sporting body

00:58:26.920 has been given

00:58:27.340 two weeks to comply.

00:58:29.660 At the center of the lawsuit

00:58:30.580 is someone named

00:58:31.160 J.C. Cooper,

00:58:32.220 a transgender powerlifter

00:58:33.400 who was born male,

00:58:34.780 identifies as female.

00:58:36.520 Cooper sued

00:58:37.240 USA powerlifting

00:58:38.060 arguing its

00:58:38.820 sex segregation

00:58:39.980 competition policy

00:58:41.040 was discriminatory

00:58:42.940 and this court agreed.

00:58:45.080 So now in Minnesota,

00:58:46.080 they have to let

00:58:46.860 the biological male men

00:58:48.540 compete against

00:58:49.680 the biological women

00:58:50.980 or their bigots.

00:58:52.520 I used to live in Minnesota.

00:58:54.360 Have you seen those guys?

00:58:56.260 They're proper

00:58:57.440 Midwestern men.

00:58:58.520 This is not right.

00:59:03.540 At least they don't have

00:59:04.300 to do it like

00:59:04.800 at least it's not a sport

00:59:06.260 where they're not

00:59:07.000 wrestling with other women.

00:59:08.680 You know,

00:59:08.800 it's like you lift your weights

00:59:09.720 over on your platform

00:59:10.580 by yourself

00:59:11.200 so nobody gets hurt.

00:59:12.760 This is literally

00:59:13.720 South Park.

00:59:14.560 South Park did

00:59:15.300 an episode about this

00:59:16.740 and it's

00:59:17.440 I don't

00:59:18.140 I don't understand

00:59:19.060 how we've got

00:59:19.920 to the point

00:59:20.540 where now

00:59:21.860 people are suing

00:59:22.860 for discrimination.

00:59:23.880 Sex segregation.

00:59:25.120 We

00:59:25.280 we just got sports.

00:59:27.240 We just got sports,

00:59:28.840 Megan,

00:59:29.260 like 50 years.

00:59:30.220 How long has it been?

00:59:31.760 Yeah,

00:59:32.640 I know.

00:59:33.180 No,

00:59:33.400 like two minutes ago

00:59:34.100 and not only that,

00:59:35.220 I mean,

00:59:35.340 like not to get on the soapbox,

00:59:36.440 but Title IX

00:59:36.960 was not fully lived up to

00:59:38.060 in any event.

00:59:38.560 Girls sports.

00:59:39.100 I mean,

00:59:39.200 take a look at girls sports

00:59:40.080 at most high schools.

00:59:41.300 They don't get the kind

00:59:42.140 of funding and support

00:59:42.920 that boys sports do

00:59:43.720 or colleges.

00:59:44.960 That's just the way it is.

00:59:45.960 So we're working on it.

00:59:47.260 You know,

00:59:47.420 we're making progress

00:59:48.040 for sure.

00:59:48.500 We're way better

00:59:48.800 than we used to be.

00:59:49.720 But like to now,

00:59:51.500 like now the guys

00:59:52.280 have to play in our lane too,

00:59:53.460 like in everything

00:59:53.960 and they get to do power lifting

00:59:55.460 and we're going to pretend

00:59:56.340 they have no advantage

00:59:57.200 over us in that.

00:59:58.820 I mean,

00:59:59.020 it just happened yesterday

01:00:00.560 that the Biden administration.

01:00:02.600 OK,

01:00:02.740 so they're not only playing

01:00:03.580 in our sports,

01:00:04.140 but they're winning our awards.

01:00:06.260 There is the International

01:00:07.140 Day of Women.

01:00:08.200 Kelly McGuire.

01:00:09.280 Somebody tell me

01:00:09.760 what page that is on

01:00:10.440 because my packets

01:00:11.060 are everywhere now.

01:00:11.700 I've lost my organization.

01:00:16.100 Hold on.

01:00:16.700 I'm all over the place,

01:00:17.620 Bridget.

01:00:18.140 That's all right.

01:00:18.860 That's all right.

01:00:19.500 I always joke that

01:00:21.360 this is like the patriarchy

01:00:22.840 so crafty.

01:00:24.320 OK,

01:00:24.520 I found it.

01:00:26.840 Alba Rueda,

01:00:28.420 a man who identifies

01:00:29.480 as a woman,

01:00:30.100 received an International

01:00:31.320 Women of Courage Award

01:00:32.380 from the White House.

01:00:33.940 It's an International

01:00:34.980 Women of Courage Award.

01:00:36.820 Isn't it?

01:00:37.740 International Women's Month.

01:00:39.540 And like,

01:00:39.960 we can't even have that.

01:00:41.560 You're not even allowed

01:00:42.320 to have that.

01:00:42.720 The men have to be

01:00:43.400 in that too.

01:00:44.300 Now,

01:00:44.480 no normal man

01:00:45.180 wants to be part of this.

01:00:46.060 I'm talking about

01:00:46.580 people who just like

01:00:47.920 and not even normal

01:00:48.680 trans people.

01:00:49.760 Most trans people,

01:00:51.060 trans women,

01:00:52.040 wouldn't they wouldn't

01:00:52.780 take the award.

01:00:53.400 They'd be like,

01:00:53.900 you know what?

01:00:54.160 I'm playing in my lane.

01:00:54.940 Leave me alone.

01:00:55.660 It's these activists

01:00:56.720 like this person,

01:00:58.540 Alba Rueda,

01:00:59.980 who says that

01:01:01.240 he's a woman

01:01:01.960 who not only

01:01:03.660 is getting an award,

01:01:04.640 even though he's

01:01:05.160 a biological man,

01:01:06.080 but who campaigned

01:01:07.420 to even change the name

01:01:08.720 of the National

01:01:09.640 Women's Conference

01:01:10.440 to the plurinational

01:01:15.520 conference of women

01:01:16.460 and lesbian,

01:01:17.420 cross-dressers,

01:01:18.220 transgenders,

01:01:19.260 bisexuals,

01:01:19.980 intersex,

01:01:20.500 and non-binary persons.

01:01:22.540 I just,

01:01:24.100 I joke all the time.

01:01:25.800 I have a whole

01:01:26.180 stand-up routine

01:01:26.920 about how this

01:01:27.680 is a patriarchy

01:01:28.400 so crafty.

01:01:29.420 I was not a feminist,

01:01:30.960 never really believed

01:01:31.840 in this idea

01:01:32.440 of the patriarchy.

01:01:33.200 Then all of this

01:01:34.020 stuff started happening.

01:01:35.020 I'm like,

01:01:35.660 this is how they

01:01:36.400 stay on top.

01:01:37.360 They're just gonna,

01:01:38.360 they were mad.

01:01:39.140 Women started getting,

01:01:40.560 started getting ahead

01:01:41.740 and now they're just

01:01:42.480 gonna turn themselves

01:01:43.340 into women

01:01:44.020 and they can still

01:01:45.080 stay on top.

01:01:46.060 This is,

01:01:46.660 this is the patriarchy

01:01:47.820 so crafty.

01:01:49.060 They will turn themselves

01:01:50.140 into women

01:01:50.820 to stay on top.

01:01:52.260 It's an interesting theory.

01:01:53.700 I had Britt and Carrie

01:01:54.660 on our culture warriors

01:01:55.780 and we were talking about,

01:01:57.820 these are both

01:01:58.200 former beauty queens,

01:01:59.160 former Miss California

01:02:00.180 and Carrie was Miss USA.

01:02:03.220 Right?

01:02:03.560 She,

01:02:03.720 she won or she was

01:02:04.320 first runner.

01:02:04.660 I can't remember.

01:02:05.220 Anyway,

01:02:05.460 she was right at the top.

01:02:07.640 And we were talking

01:02:09.100 about how even

01:02:09.560 in those pageants

01:02:10.480 now,

01:02:11.460 they're allowing

01:02:12.140 trans women.

01:02:13.340 They're like,

01:02:13.740 like win the beauty

01:02:14.960 pageants for women.

01:02:17.300 So there's really

01:02:17.740 no space

01:02:18.500 into which we will

01:02:19.840 not allow

01:02:20.300 the patriarchy.

01:02:22.080 No,

01:02:22.380 they're in prisons now.

01:02:23.580 Women's prisons.

01:02:24.640 I mean,

01:02:24.940 even more terrifying

01:02:26.660 and infuriating.

01:02:27.760 This is,

01:02:28.600 this stuff is,

01:02:29.520 has ramifications,

01:02:30.940 but none

01:02:31.800 and so great

01:02:32.580 as when you start

01:02:33.560 letting criminals

01:02:34.820 self-ID

01:02:35.560 into female prisons

01:02:36.940 like they do

01:02:37.680 in California.

01:02:39.120 Mm-hmm.

01:02:39.700 You know,

01:02:40.280 that is one of the things,

01:02:41.400 if memory serves,

01:02:42.060 that Steven Crowder

01:02:42.740 got a YouTube strike for,

01:02:44.280 ultimately leading

01:02:45.280 to his,

01:02:45.800 uh,

01:02:46.580 either demonetization

01:02:47.480 or whatever,

01:02:48.220 punishment from YouTube.

01:02:49.380 He did a skit

01:02:50.480 involving Alex Jones

01:02:51.740 in which a male

01:02:53.860 prisoner pretending

01:02:54.760 to be a trans woman

01:02:55.880 raped a female

01:02:58.020 inmate.

01:02:59.020 and,

01:03:00.080 you know,

01:03:00.380 for a while

01:03:00.780 their left was like,

01:03:01.560 that is not a thing.

01:03:02.520 That's not a thing.

01:03:03.160 Well,

01:03:03.300 it is a thing.

01:03:04.240 It is a thing

01:03:05.120 out in California

01:03:05.800 for the female inmates

01:03:07.720 and all the person

01:03:08.780 has to do

01:03:09.420 is self-identify

01:03:10.680 as trans

01:03:11.220 two seconds ago.

01:03:12.620 They don't have to have

01:03:13.200 lived as a trans person.

01:03:14.760 It could be post-conviction

01:03:15.920 as a rapist,

01:03:17.260 a serial rapist

01:03:18.340 of women.

01:03:19.000 You're suddenly

01:03:19.640 a trans woman

01:03:20.460 and you can go

01:03:21.340 into the female prison.

01:03:22.200 It's insane.

01:03:22.680 I don't know

01:03:24.060 if that skit

01:03:24.800 was demonetized

01:03:26.020 for Alex Jones

01:03:27.740 or rape

01:03:28.540 or it sounds like

01:03:29.520 there's a lot

01:03:29.960 going on there.

01:03:31.160 A lot going on.

01:03:31.960 But still,

01:03:32.760 it's pointing to

01:03:33.860 attention to an important issue.

01:03:35.800 No,

01:03:36.060 it's definitely something

01:03:37.040 that doesn't really

01:03:38.300 get enough attention

01:03:39.320 if you care

01:03:40.120 about these minority

01:03:41.300 women who are,

01:03:42.800 don't have a voice,

01:03:43.980 you should care

01:03:44.700 the most about this.

01:03:46.040 The fact that people

01:03:47.140 can't conceive

01:03:47.880 that a criminal

01:03:48.720 would lie

01:03:49.940 about being a woman

01:03:52.560 to get inside

01:03:53.940 a prison with women,

01:03:55.600 criminals who have

01:03:56.660 assaulted women

01:03:57.440 and children,

01:03:58.520 is baffling to me.

01:04:00.080 This is,

01:04:00.580 this is,

01:04:01.100 I don't understand

01:04:02.420 why there aren't

01:04:03.120 more people

01:04:03.680 speaking out about this

01:04:04.900 all across

01:04:05.880 the political spectrum.

01:04:07.080 This should not be

01:04:08.000 just guys like

01:04:09.980 Steven Crowder

01:04:11.120 speaking up for them

01:04:12.240 and me.

01:04:13.340 It should be,

01:04:14.060 there should be liberals

01:04:15.100 who care about this too.

01:04:17.120 It's like,

01:04:17.960 Gavin Newsom

01:04:18.660 wants to lecture us

01:04:19.820 about like LGBTQ,

01:04:21.260 blah, blah, blah, blah,

01:04:21.940 like how,

01:04:22.560 how progressive he is.

01:04:23.420 Everything.

01:04:23.800 His counterpart,

01:04:24.620 his Canadian twin,

01:04:25.780 Trudeau,

01:04:26.280 uses terms like

01:04:27.120 she session.

01:04:29.160 This has been a she,

01:04:30.580 this is good,

01:04:31.000 we're going to have

01:04:31.280 a she cover-y

01:04:32.340 from our she session.

01:04:34.320 Meanwhile,

01:04:35.300 yeah,

01:04:35.540 I think basically

01:04:36.420 the same person.

01:04:37.620 Meanwhile,

01:04:38.240 Newsom's allowing,

01:04:39.220 you know,

01:04:39.800 male rapists

01:04:40.820 to say they're female

01:04:42.000 and go into

01:04:42.400 the female prisons

01:04:43.160 and we're supposed

01:04:43.680 to look at him

01:04:44.180 as some progressive

01:04:44.760 warrior for us.

01:04:45.920 Mm-hmm.

01:04:46.640 Yep.

01:04:47.640 Yeah,

01:04:48.160 he allows a lot

01:04:49.580 of stuff

01:04:50.100 that is,

01:04:51.180 I don't understand

01:04:52.540 how people

01:04:53.800 are clapping

01:04:54.320 for him

01:04:54.800 and think

01:04:55.140 that he's

01:04:55.680 some sort

01:04:56.300 of hero

01:04:56.720 for the,

01:04:57.860 the voiceless

01:04:58.800 and the victims,

01:04:59.900 the true victims

01:05:00.800 in our society.

01:05:02.140 Aren't you from California?

01:05:03.760 Weren't you?

01:05:04.100 You were living there.

01:05:05.180 I'm still here,

01:05:06.260 but not for long.

01:05:07.460 Oh yeah,

01:05:07.980 that's right.

01:05:08.540 You told me this personally.

01:05:09.720 Now you,

01:05:10.220 you do have a,

01:05:10.880 a fun announcement

01:05:12.180 to make.

01:05:12.820 Yes,

01:05:13.300 I'm moving to Texas

01:05:14.440 in like the next

01:05:15.980 six weeks.

01:05:17.220 Yeah.

01:05:17.540 Good for you.

01:05:18.380 Where are you going?

01:05:19.880 Um,

01:05:20.260 probably outside

01:05:20.940 of Austin.

01:05:22.220 No,

01:05:22.380 like where specifically?

01:05:23.160 What's your street

01:05:23.620 address going to be?

01:05:26.940 General area.

01:05:27.460 Okay,

01:05:27.640 so outside Austin.

01:05:28.700 All the cool kids

01:05:29.380 are moving to Austin.

01:05:30.740 It seems that way.

01:05:31.840 I feel like I have

01:05:32.600 a pretty strong set

01:05:33.880 of friends

01:05:34.360 and community

01:05:34.940 there already

01:05:35.660 and yeah,

01:05:37.200 it just feels,

01:05:38.040 it feels more,

01:05:39.380 I'm just so excited.

01:05:40.480 I feel like ideologically

01:05:42.920 it'll be nice

01:05:43.660 to be somewhere

01:05:44.280 where it doesn't feel

01:05:45.180 so uni party

01:05:46.820 and also just here

01:05:49.220 it doesn't feel safe.

01:05:50.820 I have a kid,

01:05:51.700 everything changes

01:05:52.480 when you have a kid,

01:05:53.320 you know this,

01:05:54.160 everything.

01:05:55.220 Suddenly you look

01:05:56.060 around at the neighborhood

01:05:56.980 and I don't want her

01:05:58.140 growing up looking

01:05:58.900 at people.

01:05:59.940 This is the other thing

01:06:01.020 that the homelessness

01:06:01.900 problem here,

01:06:02.940 it's not humane.

01:06:04.920 I don't understand

01:06:05.580 how this is being

01:06:06.620 positioned as something

01:06:08.020 that people should

01:06:08.780 just think is the

01:06:09.560 humane way

01:06:10.180 to deal with this problem

01:06:11.260 and you have to

01:06:12.540 kind of shut

01:06:13.200 a certain amount

01:06:14.560 of your empathy down

01:06:15.680 in order to even

01:06:16.720 deal with it

01:06:17.620 because everywhere

01:06:18.300 I go in my town

01:06:20.440 there's tents

01:06:21.620 and people

01:06:22.340 taking,

01:06:23.360 defecating

01:06:23.940 and shooting up

01:06:25.360 and nodding out

01:06:26.560 and I don't,

01:06:27.460 I don't want

01:06:28.180 to have to

01:06:29.220 raise my daughter

01:06:30.460 around,

01:06:31.480 around that kind of,

01:06:34.060 it's very

01:06:35.180 unsettling

01:06:36.300 and scary

01:06:37.140 and sad.

01:06:38.160 There's just

01:06:38.900 a lot of it

01:06:40.260 that,

01:06:41.260 it doesn't seem

01:06:41.860 like it's getting

01:06:42.280 better either.

01:06:43.460 Yeah.

01:06:43.980 No,

01:06:44.180 I remember coming

01:06:44.620 back to New York

01:06:45.180 City after

01:06:45.740 the COVID lockdown

01:06:47.840 which we spent

01:06:48.500 in Montana

01:06:49.000 which was smart.

01:06:50.280 Then we came back

01:06:51.000 to New York City

01:06:51.740 at the beginning

01:06:52.140 of June 2020

01:06:53.100 and all the restaurants

01:06:55.620 were closed.

01:06:56.520 Like you could eat

01:06:56.940 outside at a couple

01:06:57.760 of places

01:06:58.520 but if you did,

01:06:59.740 so you had no choice

01:07:00.380 but to eat outside

01:07:00.920 if you wanted to eat out

01:07:01.680 most New Yorkers

01:07:02.340 can't cook

01:07:02.740 so they do eat out.

01:07:03.580 They rely on the

01:07:04.220 restaurant system

01:07:04.920 at a disproportionate

01:07:06.400 rate to the rest

01:07:07.000 of America

01:07:07.420 and we're sitting

01:07:09.700 out there

01:07:10.180 and you got

01:07:11.220 these guys

01:07:11.920 who,

01:07:12.480 I mean,

01:07:12.920 literally have

01:07:13.580 their pants

01:07:14.280 down entirely

01:07:15.840 below their bottom,

01:07:16.940 like entirely

01:07:17.400 below their bottom.

01:07:18.000 I can see ass crack

01:07:18.860 and there's many

01:07:20.380 like milling about

01:07:21.880 coming over

01:07:22.760 spewing nonsense.

01:07:23.900 They're not even

01:07:24.220 making sense.

01:07:25.700 Vulgarities too.

01:07:26.660 Not just like

01:07:27.400 random nonsense

01:07:28.220 but like vulgarities

01:07:29.320 in front of my kids

01:07:30.600 who have no,

01:07:31.020 they're just trying

01:07:31.380 to eat their pizza

01:07:32.060 like leave my kid alone

01:07:33.260 and it was one

01:07:34.320 of those moments

01:07:34.860 where you're like

01:07:35.260 we're getting out of here.

01:07:36.600 Like this city,

01:07:37.260 this is not acceptable.

01:07:38.540 Nobody wants

01:07:39.120 to live like this.

01:07:40.180 Yeah,

01:07:41.980 my cousin just went

01:07:43.220 to San Francisco

01:07:43.860 and I was asking her

01:07:44.880 if it was as bad

01:07:46.040 as you always hear

01:07:47.020 that it is

01:07:47.700 and she said

01:07:48.220 in some places

01:07:49.060 where they were

01:07:49.980 not really

01:07:50.760 but then she said

01:07:51.900 but we did see

01:07:52.680 a guy taking a crap

01:07:54.020 outside of a building

01:07:55.120 when we were eating.

01:07:56.440 Like so,

01:07:56.960 that's just,

01:07:57.860 that's not normal.

01:08:00.180 You know,

01:08:00.640 we shouldn't.

01:08:01.280 That's happening

01:08:02.160 in New York too.

01:08:02.920 Honestly,

01:08:03.200 I went down to the subway

01:08:03.920 with my daughter Yardley.

01:08:05.220 It was very clearly

01:08:06.140 human excrement

01:08:07.360 right there

01:08:08.040 on the wall.

01:08:08.280 You can tell.

01:08:09.020 There's nothing

01:08:09.620 more stomach turning.

01:08:10.980 You're just trying

01:08:11.380 to get your kid

01:08:11.880 to school.

01:08:12.640 Literally,

01:08:13.000 you're trying

01:08:13.220 to put your school,

01:08:14.000 your child,

01:08:14.900 you know,

01:08:15.240 get her from A to B

01:08:16.160 so she can go to school

01:08:16.880 and she's got to step

01:08:17.500 over human crap.

01:08:18.780 Something's gone wrong.

01:08:19.940 The city mayor

01:08:20.460 is doing a shit poor job

01:08:21.840 and when it goes on

01:08:23.620 for years and years,

01:08:25.080 it's policy.

01:08:26.240 It's not going to change.

01:08:28.460 I mean,

01:08:29.120 the amount of money

01:08:29.960 California has put

01:08:31.040 into the homelessness

01:08:31.980 problem and we voted,

01:08:33.560 all of us have voted

01:08:34.580 every year

01:08:35.320 to increase the money

01:08:36.720 that we give

01:08:37.220 to the homeless

01:08:37.840 and to the problem

01:08:38.640 and it seems like

01:08:39.560 every year

01:08:40.340 that people vote

01:08:41.180 for more money,

01:08:41.900 it gets worse

01:08:42.820 and I think

01:08:43.560 that's why it's frustrating

01:08:44.900 because you'll have

01:08:46.240 a conversation about this

01:08:47.340 and you'll be accused

01:08:48.060 of dehumanizing

01:08:49.120 the homeless

01:08:49.640 just for even

01:08:50.540 bringing up the fact

01:08:51.720 that they're living

01:08:52.480 in squalor

01:08:53.300 and that these conditions

01:08:54.300 are inhumane.

01:08:55.620 Well,

01:08:55.880 what are you supposed

01:08:56.920 to,

01:08:57.120 what are we supposed

01:08:57.640 to do?

01:08:58.320 The people who are

01:08:59.240 in charge

01:08:59.660 who have taken

01:09:00.280 billions of dollars

01:09:01.580 for big homeless

01:09:02.560 are not making

01:09:03.920 this situation better.

01:09:05.040 They're not helping

01:09:05.860 get any of these people

01:09:06.940 off the streets.

01:09:07.800 I don't,

01:09:08.340 I don't know

01:09:09.340 what the solution

01:09:10.600 is exactly

01:09:11.320 but I do know

01:09:12.240 that it shouldn't

01:09:13.240 be getting just

01:09:14.220 worse and worse

01:09:15.820 and worse

01:09:16.160 every single year

01:09:17.160 that basically

01:09:18.020 I've been here.

01:09:19.160 It's not fair

01:09:20.160 to the people.

01:09:21.040 It's not fair

01:09:21.440 to them.

01:09:22.360 You're seeing

01:09:22.840 little kids

01:09:23.260 having to watch

01:09:24.000 them shooting up

01:09:24.960 as they get

01:09:25.720 off the school bus.

01:09:26.580 We've seen

01:09:26.820 those tapes

01:09:27.600 courtesy of

01:09:28.060 Michael Schellenberger.

01:09:29.720 That's mentioned

01:09:30.320 in New York

01:09:31.060 where I was

01:09:31.680 we were in

01:09:32.780 Riverside Park

01:09:33.580 which is on

01:09:34.080 the Upper West Side

01:09:34.900 Central Park

01:09:35.780 sort of in the big

01:09:36.460 in the center

01:09:36.940 of the city

01:09:37.400 and Riverside

01:09:38.200 is over on the West Side

01:09:39.060 and it's a beautiful park

01:09:41.100 and we're sitting there

01:09:41.800 and it's maybe

01:09:42.660 4.30 in the afternoon

01:09:43.940 in like springtime

01:09:45.080 when that's still

01:09:45.640 light out

01:09:46.060 and there was

01:09:46.740 a homeless guy

01:09:47.260 sitting on a bench

01:09:47.900 we were minding

01:09:48.880 our own business

01:09:49.360 I'm just walking

01:09:50.080 out of the park

01:09:50.860 with my kids

01:09:51.340 and he gets up

01:09:52.420 and like grunts

01:09:53.720 like

01:09:54.120 and chases us

01:09:56.300 my kids are like

01:09:57.200 oh my god

01:09:57.640 we ran

01:09:58.100 so I mean

01:09:59.000 I'm sorry

01:10:00.700 for the homeless

01:10:01.840 who have fallen there

01:10:02.660 through no fault

01:10:03.300 of their own

01:10:03.800 and you know

01:10:04.240 bad circumstances

01:10:05.040 but my experience

01:10:06.300 with a homeless

01:10:06.700 in New York

01:10:07.120 is much more

01:10:07.700 along the lines

01:10:08.260 of that guy

01:10:08.680 on the park

01:10:09.840 bench

01:10:10.780 who screamed

01:10:11.740 to my kids

01:10:12.180 and yelled at us

01:10:12.760 and ran

01:10:13.220 and another guy

01:10:14.300 who did the same thing

01:10:15.200 we were trying

01:10:15.660 to get a Dunkin Donut

01:10:16.520 like that

01:10:17.420 it's a problem

01:10:18.100 it's scary

01:10:18.780 for the law

01:10:19.280 abiding citizens

01:10:20.060 it is

01:10:21.060 that's what

01:10:21.520 that's what

01:10:22.240 I don't understand

01:10:23.040 why is there

01:10:23.840 so little care

01:10:25.340 for the taxpayers

01:10:26.340 it seems like

01:10:27.320 they they are

01:10:28.660 openly hostile

01:10:29.740 to the people

01:10:30.460 who are paying

01:10:31.020 the taxes

01:10:31.540 and the people

01:10:32.260 with families

01:10:32.920 and you're letting

01:10:34.060 just people

01:10:34.860 in Venice

01:10:35.440 camp out

01:10:36.320 and have

01:10:37.360 meth labs

01:10:38.580 out in their

01:10:39.380 RVs

01:10:40.220 outside of

01:10:40.960 people who have

01:10:42.160 children's homes

01:10:43.200 this is

01:10:43.920 why do you have

01:10:44.920 so little respect

01:10:46.140 and regard

01:10:46.680 for the people

01:10:48.380 who are also

01:10:49.780 citizens

01:10:50.280 and paying taxes

01:10:51.120 in your cities

01:10:52.120 it shouldn't be

01:10:53.400 like the people

01:10:54.660 who are homeless

01:10:55.380 and on the streets

01:10:56.000 they shouldn't

01:10:56.520 obviously be

01:10:57.200 dehumanized

01:10:58.040 and and treated

01:10:59.140 below anybody

01:11:00.840 but they should

01:11:01.580 I feel like

01:11:02.380 at least the

01:11:03.140 taxpayers should be

01:11:04.140 on level

01:11:04.740 playing ground

01:11:05.720 with them

01:11:06.200 and they're not

01:11:06.980 enforce the law

01:11:08.000 enforce the law

01:11:08.820 in New York City

01:11:09.360 they've gotten rid of

01:11:10.040 you know

01:11:10.360 they don't enforce

01:11:11.180 the public urination

01:11:12.080 and the

01:11:12.600 they weren't enforcing

01:11:13.620 jumping over the

01:11:14.220 turnstile

01:11:15.020 all those things

01:11:15.660 lead to more crime

01:11:16.360 more crime

01:11:16.840 I miss Giuliani

01:11:18.580 I miss the old

01:11:19.380 version of Giuliani

01:11:20.240 and I miss New York

01:11:22.460 under Giuliani

01:11:23.300 and Bloomberg too

01:11:24.080 even with his

01:11:25.020 big gulp soda band

01:11:26.160 he was way better

01:11:26.980 than what we have

01:11:27.700 now and certainly

01:11:28.600 what we had

01:11:28.980 under de Blasio

01:11:29.880 can I ask you

01:11:30.660 before we move

01:11:31.020 off of this

01:11:31.440 I've only been

01:11:32.740 to Austin

01:11:33.140 one time

01:11:33.800 and it was

01:11:35.880 so charming

01:11:37.440 it was

01:11:37.900 like the main

01:11:39.340 drag in Austin

01:11:40.120 as I remember it

01:11:40.940 had kind of

01:11:41.800 an old west

01:11:42.520 feel to it

01:11:43.440 but also

01:11:44.360 you know

01:11:44.920 it's been

01:11:45.300 modernized of course

01:11:45.980 but it just

01:11:46.320 it was a good

01:11:46.880 combination of

01:11:47.460 kind of rustic

01:11:48.320 but also hip

01:11:49.560 so what's it

01:11:50.920 like there

01:11:51.460 and what are

01:11:52.000 the differences

01:11:52.500 that you've noticed

01:11:53.120 I'm sure you've

01:11:53.500 checked it out

01:11:53.940 you know

01:11:54.300 before you decided

01:11:54.820 to move there

01:11:55.240 yeah there's

01:11:56.620 well first of all

01:11:57.740 there's

01:11:58.160 some of the same

01:11:59.740 problems exist

01:12:00.560 in Austin

01:12:01.120 in the city

01:12:02.060 that exists here

01:12:02.900 just not on the

01:12:03.780 same scale

01:12:04.360 there's definitely

01:12:05.600 some homelessness

01:12:06.680 although they voted

01:12:08.180 to start enforcing

01:12:10.320 the ban on just

01:12:11.360 camping on the

01:12:12.020 sidewalks again

01:12:12.820 so I think

01:12:14.020 after the pandemic

01:12:14.980 it got real

01:12:15.960 it was pretty bad

01:12:16.920 and then it seems

01:12:17.680 like it's not

01:12:18.720 as bad

01:12:19.320 as it was

01:12:19.960 then I do

01:12:21.760 there's a large

01:12:23.680 influx of tech

01:12:24.660 and California

01:12:25.840 so it does feel

01:12:27.300 there's a little bit

01:12:28.680 if the

01:12:29.840 there's a little bit

01:12:31.060 of that vibe

01:12:33.220 there

01:12:33.540 there's parts

01:12:34.640 parts of town

01:12:35.600 that feel

01:12:36.160 like Echo Park

01:12:37.740 here when it was

01:12:38.940 kind of cool

01:12:39.560 it's it's like

01:12:40.340 when LA was cool

01:12:41.920 15 years ago

01:12:43.720 or so

01:12:44.120 or so

01:12:44.660 it has that vibe

01:12:46.380 when I used to go

01:12:47.220 to Austin

01:12:47.660 20 years ago

01:12:48.640 it was tiny

01:12:49.300 and the

01:12:49.880 the amount

01:12:50.540 of construction

01:12:51.400 downtown

01:12:52.280 and all around

01:12:53.820 in the suburbs

01:12:54.900 is I've actually

01:12:56.100 never seen

01:12:56.600 anything like it

01:12:57.420 it is wild

01:12:58.820 how much

01:12:59.820 building they're doing

01:13:01.160 and you know

01:13:02.040 having to increase

01:13:03.200 the roads

01:13:03.780 because there's

01:13:04.420 more traffic

01:13:05.000 so but it does

01:13:07.160 have this

01:13:08.700 very weird vibe

01:13:09.940 that is still

01:13:10.620 very Austin

01:13:11.440 and there's a

01:13:12.980 great expression

01:13:13.760 that my friend

01:13:14.680 who's lived there

01:13:15.320 for many years

01:13:16.000 told me

01:13:16.880 they say

01:13:17.480 keep Austin weird

01:13:18.840 but keep Austin

01:13:19.680 surrounded

01:13:20.300 it's kind of a

01:13:22.160 Texas

01:13:22.600 Texas phrase

01:13:23.780 yeah

01:13:24.100 and people say

01:13:25.600 don't California

01:13:26.560 are Texas

01:13:27.640 and they do

01:13:29.100 a lot of polling

01:13:30.120 on this

01:13:30.600 most people

01:13:31.380 who are leaving

01:13:32.140 California

01:13:32.820 and going to

01:13:33.900 all of these

01:13:34.680 other states

01:13:35.400 which is not

01:13:36.220 just Texas

01:13:36.800 but Texas

01:13:37.480 is I think

01:13:38.220 number one

01:13:39.080 they are

01:13:40.400 voting red

01:13:41.680 or

01:13:42.320 at the very least

01:13:43.700 they're not

01:13:43.980 voting blue

01:13:44.460 they know

01:13:44.920 what they left

01:13:45.620 so when they

01:13:46.200 poll the people

01:13:46.960 and they look at

01:13:47.640 they look at

01:13:49.120 all the numbers

01:13:49.780 it's not actually

01:13:51.200 what they're doing

01:13:51.940 they tend to vote

01:13:53.420 more conservative

01:13:54.340 than even people

01:13:55.820 who live in Texas

01:13:56.900 or who might be

01:13:57.700 locals

01:13:58.340 wow

01:13:59.120 yeah because people

01:14:00.060 have moved to Texas

01:14:00.860 they moved to Florida

01:14:01.620 they moved to Tennessee

01:14:02.380 these are great states

01:14:03.480 that are more red

01:14:04.240 leaning in their politics

01:14:05.560 with no state income tax

01:14:07.300 which is

01:14:07.780 another benefit

01:14:09.320 no it's delightful

01:14:10.740 I mean I moved

01:14:11.220 to Connecticut

01:14:11.600 as you know

01:14:12.100 and I have to say

01:14:12.820 it's like

01:14:13.740 it's not like

01:14:14.140 Connecticut is perfect

01:14:14.900 and it doesn't have

01:14:15.500 homelessness problems

01:14:16.280 in certain cities

01:14:17.000 but it's clean

01:14:18.120 it's families

01:14:19.340 it's people

01:14:20.100 who are trying

01:14:20.420 to put their kids

01:14:20.920 through school

01:14:21.440 you don't walk around

01:14:22.360 and see any

01:14:22.720 tent cities anywhere

01:14:23.640 you don't see

01:14:24.120 drug

01:14:24.400 literally in New York City

01:14:25.620 my daughter

01:14:26.400 would play soccer

01:14:28.200 and we'd go up

01:14:29.440 to like 134th street

01:14:30.980 where there was a field

01:14:31.800 right around there

01:14:32.960 and there were

01:14:33.820 hypodermic needles

01:14:34.740 on the field

01:14:36.000 which we would

01:14:36.760 the parents would walk

01:14:37.620 around and pick up

01:14:38.300 we would pick them up

01:14:38.980 throw them away

01:14:39.640 and then the only reason

01:14:41.260 we got bounced out

01:14:41.920 of that field

01:14:42.460 eventually

01:14:42.920 through the league

01:14:43.560 we were in

01:14:44.000 was a guy got shot

01:14:46.140 there like two hours

01:14:47.500 before one of her games

01:14:48.700 so like oh okay

01:14:49.820 maybe we shouldn't play

01:14:50.500 I mean this is insane

01:14:52.000 this is

01:14:52.420 why would parents stay there

01:14:54.060 why did we stay there

01:14:55.020 you know

01:14:55.280 when we were there

01:14:55.920 for most of the years

01:14:56.580 it was safe

01:14:57.220 it really was

01:14:57.820 like Bloomberg

01:14:58.240 was a very efficient

01:14:59.820 city manager

01:15:00.620 and then that loser

01:15:01.960 de Blasio got in

01:15:02.840 and ruined

01:15:03.720 ruined New York

01:15:05.120 same as Lori Lightfoot

01:15:06.100 ruined Chicago

01:15:07.600 and then that moron

01:15:08.980 thought he could run

01:15:09.440 for president

01:15:10.000 then he really thought

01:15:11.040 he could run for president

01:15:11.980 and that she's probably

01:15:13.160 gonna run for president

01:15:13.840 if Joe Biden

01:15:14.980 doesn't do it

01:15:15.760 this time around

01:15:16.260 okay so

01:15:17.620 I'm gonna pause there

01:15:18.820 I'm gonna squeeze

01:15:19.340 in a quick break

01:15:19.900 I'm gonna come back

01:15:20.560 and I have a lot

01:15:21.640 to ask you about

01:15:22.200 including

01:15:22.540 the return

01:15:23.800 of the Victoria

01:15:24.980 Secret fashion show

01:15:26.800 you know Bridget

01:15:27.340 she's right for Playboy

01:15:28.280 she's got thoughts

01:15:28.940 on this kind of thing

01:15:29.620 so we'll figure out

01:15:30.620 whether this is a force

01:15:31.400 for good

01:15:31.860 or a force for evil

01:15:32.920 and FYI

01:15:34.660 it's not going to be

01:15:36.280 the Victoria

01:15:36.800 Secret fashion show

01:15:38.400 that you remember

01:15:39.460 from the sound of it

01:15:40.300 stand by

01:15:40.860 so Bridget

01:15:45.740 Victoria's Secret

01:15:47.240 is bringing back

01:15:48.680 its fashion show

01:15:50.120 it was an annual event

01:15:52.700 and it's been

01:15:53.640 a four year hiatus

01:15:54.840 since it's been

01:15:55.720 since it was last on

01:15:56.720 it was cancelled

01:15:57.360 after its lowest ratings

01:15:58.540 ever

01:15:58.900 in 2018

01:16:00.360 and so they're

01:16:02.180 gonna bring it back

01:16:03.080 and yet

01:16:04.580 it doesn't sound

01:16:05.540 like we're necessarily

01:16:06.580 going to be getting

01:16:07.600 like the Stephanie

01:16:08.520 Seymour angels

01:16:09.840 with the wings

01:16:10.940 and the skimpy

01:16:11.800 outfits

01:16:12.880 I'm not sure

01:16:13.800 because Victoria's Secret

01:16:15.420 has gone woke

01:16:16.760 there's Giselle

01:16:17.620 since it was last on

01:16:19.400 in 2019

01:16:21.160 they hired their

01:16:22.280 first transgender model

01:16:24.020 because of course

01:16:25.320 right

01:16:25.840 yet another space

01:16:26.680 that women used to dominate

01:16:27.700 and now

01:16:28.240 no

01:16:28.560 the angels

01:16:30.420 were later replaced

01:16:31.220 by Victoria's Secret

01:16:33.180 Collective

01:16:33.860 an unparalleled group

01:16:35.560 of trailblazing partners

01:16:37.300 who share a common goal

01:16:38.680 to drive positive change

01:16:40.220 instead of Giselle

01:16:41.860 we have

01:16:42.420 Megan Rapinoe

01:16:44.860 instead of Stephanie Seymour

01:16:46.600 we have

01:16:47.920 let's see

01:16:49.280 a refugee

01:16:50.460 from South Sudan

01:16:51.680 we have

01:16:53.280 of course

01:16:55.040 the plus size models

01:16:56.300 we've got

01:16:57.180 Priyanka Chopra

01:16:58.000 Jonas

01:16:58.420 because

01:16:58.980 I don't know

01:16:59.680 she's diverse

01:17:00.280 and she's married

01:17:00.820 to a Jonas

01:17:01.320 and they've

01:17:03.240 been featuring

01:17:03.960 women of all shapes

01:17:05.060 and sizes

01:17:05.560 as well as

01:17:06.740 the various

01:17:07.180 nods

01:17:08.120 to diversity

01:17:09.900 and inclusion

01:17:11.300 as soon as they did

01:17:12.860 that FYI

01:17:13.440 Bridget

01:17:13.960 their sales

01:17:14.980 fell 8%

01:17:15.820 and they went down

01:17:16.700 another 4.5%

01:17:17.720 in the last year

01:17:18.380 so people don't seem

01:17:19.600 to be responding

01:17:20.200 particularly well

01:17:21.020 to the heavyset models

01:17:22.300 who are refugees

01:17:23.400 and also men

01:17:25.580 but you tell me

01:17:28.380 whether this is

01:17:28.960 going to work

01:17:29.460 I mean Rihanna

01:17:31.280 does it so much better

01:17:32.980 she basically

01:17:33.980 destroyed

01:17:34.720 their entire

01:17:35.960 their whole thing

01:17:38.140 she

01:17:38.500 her Fenty

01:17:39.420 her fashion show

01:17:41.440 that she does

01:17:42.120 it was very

01:17:43.240 always just diverse

01:17:44.760 but it wasn't

01:17:45.600 forced

01:17:46.160 it was just

01:17:46.620 Rihanna being

01:17:47.420 effortlessly cool

01:17:48.660 and her Fenty

01:17:49.820 brand is amazing

01:17:50.900 and she had

01:17:51.880 all kinds of people

01:17:53.000 it was a whole

01:17:53.760 artistic

01:17:54.400 thing

01:17:55.620 and then Victoria's

01:17:56.800 Secret was getting

01:17:57.620 their just

01:17:58.140 she was

01:17:59.100 eating their lunch

01:18:00.740 basically Rihanna

01:18:01.720 and Victoria's

01:18:02.980 Secret

01:18:03.360 saw that

01:18:04.580 they were losing

01:18:06.180 in this space

01:18:07.040 and they tried

01:18:07.780 to pivot

01:18:08.200 away from what

01:18:09.060 they were

01:18:09.440 but this is like

01:18:10.080 when Playboy

01:18:10.760 tried to

01:18:12.100 stop having nudes

01:18:13.560 you can't

01:18:14.600 you're Victoria's

01:18:15.560 Secret

01:18:15.720 we know you

01:18:16.380 for the angels

01:18:17.060 we know

01:18:17.760 what you are

01:18:19.180 so don't try

01:18:20.540 and pivot

01:18:20.940 away from that

01:18:21.900 just try

01:18:22.460 and lean

01:18:23.100 into it

01:18:23.820 we I loved

01:18:24.960 the angels

01:18:25.520 I grew up

01:18:26.380 with them

01:18:26.700 me too

01:18:27.060 loved them

01:18:28.600 did I think

01:18:29.320 I could ever

01:18:29.900 be an angel

01:18:30.540 no

01:18:31.140 did that make

01:18:31.780 me feel sad

01:18:32.600 no

01:18:33.300 because I'm

01:18:34.320 you have to

01:18:35.260 be a well

01:18:35.740 adjusted person

01:18:36.620 you can't be

01:18:37.780 everything

01:18:38.320 that's just

01:18:38.960 not realistic

01:18:39.860 they were

01:18:40.720 they're gorgeous

01:18:41.720 superhuman

01:18:43.160 models

01:18:44.380 they're like

01:18:45.640 aliens

01:18:46.200 there's nobody

01:18:47.100 who looks like

01:18:47.840 that

01:18:48.180 and it was

01:18:48.880 so fun

01:18:49.580 to see

01:18:50.040 the pageantry

01:18:50.900 around it

01:18:51.700 and

01:18:52.200 they were

01:18:53.260 just stunning

01:18:53.960 stunning

01:18:54.500 and then

01:18:55.680 Rihanna

01:18:55.980 started doing

01:18:56.540 her thing

01:18:56.960 and it was

01:18:57.280 different

01:18:57.680 it's different

01:18:58.320 but also

01:18:58.920 amazing

01:18:59.400 and she

01:19:01.200 just naturally

01:19:02.040 was herself

01:19:02.760 I think

01:19:03.340 why people

01:19:04.220 don't respond

01:19:05.060 to this

01:19:05.520 is that

01:19:06.080 it's

01:19:07.220 they're trying

01:19:08.300 to be

01:19:08.660 something

01:19:08.980 they're not

01:19:09.520 and they're

01:19:09.960 trying to

01:19:10.560 signal

01:19:10.960 and it's

01:19:12.800 just

01:19:13.060 everybody

01:19:13.720 sees through

01:19:14.380 it

01:19:14.580 people aren't

01:19:15.120 stupid

01:19:15.480 they see

01:19:15.980 they're just

01:19:16.420 trying to do

01:19:16.940 this

01:19:17.300 because

01:19:17.900 they want

01:19:18.960 to try

01:19:19.380 and be woke

01:19:20.080 or they want

01:19:20.660 to try

01:19:21.060 and I don't

01:19:22.060 know

01:19:22.320 I don't

01:19:22.800 I don't

01:19:23.080 really

01:19:23.360 box checking

01:19:24.480 it's odd

01:19:25.080 like you

01:19:25.380 point out

01:19:25.760 Rihanna does

01:19:26.440 one with

01:19:27.060 actual diversity

01:19:27.940 because these

01:19:28.440 are the people

01:19:28.800 who she thinks

01:19:29.400 look great

01:19:29.800 and wants to

01:19:30.200 promote

01:19:30.520 yeah

01:19:30.920 they're like

01:19:31.440 okay

01:19:31.800 we've got

01:19:32.360 the Indian

01:19:32.740 girl

01:19:33.100 we've got

01:19:33.580 the lesbian

01:19:33.960 soccer player

01:19:34.720 we've got

01:19:35.360 the refugee

01:19:35.880 we've got

01:19:36.660 the skier

01:19:37.600 we've got

01:19:38.280 the heavyset

01:19:39.040 you know

01:19:39.400 plus size

01:19:39.880 model

01:19:40.260 okay we're

01:19:40.660 good

01:19:40.940 right

01:19:41.240 it's

01:19:41.420 they don't

01:19:41.760 actually care

01:19:42.340 about diversity

01:19:42.900 they're just

01:19:43.500 trying to

01:19:43.820 appease

01:19:44.180 different

01:19:44.420 groups

01:19:44.620 oh the

01:19:44.860 trans

01:19:45.240 forgot

01:19:45.480 the trans

01:19:45.980 girl

01:19:46.200 like we've

01:19:46.960 got to

01:19:47.060 make sure

01:19:47.320 that we

01:19:47.520 check all

01:19:47.920 the boxes

01:19:48.400 meanwhile

01:19:48.940 if you ask

01:19:49.540 me the reason

01:19:50.040 that their

01:19:50.360 brand was

01:19:50.700 falling apart

01:19:51.240 and the people

01:19:52.100 weren't watching

01:19:52.580 the shows

01:19:52.880 back in 1819

01:19:53.660 is because of

01:19:54.600 Lex Wessler

01:19:55.840 the guy who

01:19:56.720 ran it

01:19:57.280 and his ties

01:19:58.200 to Jeffrey

01:19:58.600 Epstein

01:19:58.980 which came

01:19:59.520 out

01:19:59.760 which caused

01:20:00.540 some serious

01:20:01.180 backlash at

01:20:01.980 the company

01:20:02.520 I mean

01:20:03.160 look what

01:20:03.680 happened to

01:20:04.060 Prince Andrew

01:20:04.760 for being

01:20:05.180 friends with

01:20:05.720 Jeffrey Epstein

01:20:06.260 this guy

01:20:06.720 Lex

01:20:07.120 what's his

01:20:07.540 name

01:20:07.760 was way

01:20:08.580 he was in

01:20:10.020 the news

01:20:10.340 for being way

01:20:10.980 tighter with

01:20:11.460 Epstein

01:20:11.860 there was

01:20:12.560 a backlash

01:20:13.040 against the

01:20:13.520 company

01:20:13.800 I don't

01:20:14.220 think they

01:20:14.520 needed to

01:20:14.820 get rid of

01:20:15.160 the sexy

01:20:15.560 bras and

01:20:16.120 panties

01:20:16.620 and the

01:20:17.260 angels

01:20:17.640 right

01:20:18.720 they were

01:20:19.860 it was

01:20:20.320 already

01:20:20.720 where they

01:20:21.980 it's already

01:20:23.840 something that

01:20:24.460 people were

01:20:25.160 pivoting away

01:20:25.780 from too

01:20:26.300 it was the

01:20:26.960 me too

01:20:27.400 era

01:20:27.800 it was on

01:20:28.220 the heels

01:20:28.560 of that

01:20:29.160 I mean

01:20:29.580 we saw

01:20:30.200 what happened

01:20:30.540 with Playboy

01:20:31.160 during that

01:20:31.620 time it was

01:20:32.160 very weird

01:20:33.020 time to be

01:20:33.680 writing at

01:20:34.140 Playboy when

01:20:34.680 I was writing

01:20:35.180 at Playboy

01:20:35.680 because it

01:20:36.140 was 2015

01:20:36.820 it was on

01:20:37.680 the heels

01:20:38.180 of me too

01:20:38.800 which really

01:20:39.280 started in

01:20:39.980 2013

01:20:40.980 and then

01:20:42.200 you saw

01:20:43.060 the fallout

01:20:43.720 across all

01:20:44.420 of these

01:20:44.700 industries

01:20:45.120 with Epstein

01:20:45.880 and like you

01:20:47.360 said with

01:20:47.880 Victoria's Secret

01:20:48.720 and all the

01:20:49.500 people who had

01:20:50.040 ties to this

01:20:50.820 and you

01:20:51.660 started hearing

01:20:52.240 stories about

01:20:53.000 all of these

01:20:53.420 young women

01:20:53.880 who are

01:20:54.200 essentially

01:20:54.560 being trafficked

01:20:55.520 and this

01:20:56.800 affected all

01:20:57.780 of these

01:20:58.100 industries

01:20:58.580 they were

01:20:59.020 not

01:20:59.380 people weren't

01:21:01.240 smiling at

01:21:02.320 the idea

01:21:03.240 that some

01:21:03.780 of these

01:21:04.120 models might

01:21:05.000 have been

01:21:05.300 trafficked

01:21:05.900 by the

01:21:07.920 guy who

01:21:08.540 ran the

01:21:09.140 company

01:21:09.500 so

01:21:10.240 yeah

01:21:10.620 I think

01:21:10.960 it's easy

01:21:11.920 to kind

01:21:12.400 of hide

01:21:12.960 and say

01:21:13.820 oh we're

01:21:14.300 not woke

01:21:14.960 enough

01:21:15.300 when actually

01:21:16.000 you're just

01:21:16.640 associated

01:21:17.620 with a

01:21:18.040 predator

01:21:18.400 and it

01:21:19.020 would be

01:21:19.280 an easy

01:21:19.640 way to

01:21:19.980 pivot away

01:21:20.940 from that

01:21:21.360 to dodge

01:21:21.620 it

01:21:21.820 and here

01:21:22.380 why would

01:21:23.860 Megan Rapinoe

01:21:24.580 provide cover

01:21:25.360 for the

01:21:25.940 scandal of

01:21:26.720 Les Wexler

01:21:27.620 like why

01:21:28.040 would she

01:21:28.380 lend her

01:21:28.800 name

01:21:29.240 and brand

01:21:30.080 to that

01:21:30.300 is it

01:21:30.520 so important

01:21:30.920 to her

01:21:31.160 to see

01:21:31.400 herself

01:21:31.680 in a

01:21:31.840 Victoria's

01:21:32.260 Secret

01:21:32.480 ad

01:21:33.480 how about

01:21:33.960 Priyanka

01:21:34.300 Chopra

01:21:35.220 she doesn't

01:21:35.600 need to do

01:21:36.000 that

01:21:36.200 why be

01:21:37.200 associated

01:21:37.680 with the

01:21:37.980 brand

01:21:38.240 at all

01:21:38.780 given those

01:21:39.300 circumstances

01:21:39.840 but in

01:21:40.200 any event

01:21:40.520 that's what's

01:21:40.940 happened

01:21:41.180 so here's

01:21:41.880 what they

01:21:42.120 say

01:21:42.380 we needed

01:21:43.040 to stop

01:21:43.580 being about

01:21:44.100 what men

01:21:44.600 want

01:21:44.980 and to be

01:21:45.700 about

01:21:46.020 what women

01:21:46.940 want

01:21:47.400 which is so

01:21:48.380 annoying

01:23:42.360 watching that much

01:23:43.180 Fox

01:23:43.680 all right so I

01:23:49.300 do want to ask

01:23:49.900 you about

01:23:50.140 TikTok so I

01:23:50.880 don't have

01:23:51.180 TikTok on my

01:23:51.760 phone because I

01:23:52.400 don't I don't

01:23:52.800 either however

01:23:54.560 it's extremely

01:23:55.300 popular and I

01:23:57.280 see the filters

01:23:58.100 that people use

01:23:59.020 and they are

01:24:00.360 they do make you

01:24:01.160 very attractive I

01:24:02.260 mean I have to

01:24:02.820 say you know as

01:24:03.940 somebody who just

01:24:04.520 took a picture

01:24:05.160 next to Margot

01:24:06.200 Robbie who is

01:24:07.080 20 years younger

01:24:08.320 than I am I

01:24:09.240 saw I'm in

01:24:09.860 favor of a

01:24:10.660 filter I would

01:24:11.460 like a filter I

01:24:12.560 I wished I had

01:24:13.840 one of the

01:24:14.220 TikTok filters

01:24:15.060 but the you're

01:24:16.500 you were making

01:24:17.080 the point I

01:24:17.720 I think that

01:24:18.360 they've gone too

01:24:19.500 far it's getting

01:24:20.280 weird now and

01:24:21.840 I'll show the

01:24:22.380 videotape that I

01:24:23.100 think you were

01:24:23.440 talking about so

01:24:24.100 the audience knows

01:24:24.740 what we're talking

01:24:25.080 about but it's

01:24:25.420 basically you

01:24:25.880 cannot take off

01:24:26.780 the filter you

01:24:27.780 will be the

01:24:28.480 filterized version

01:24:29.360 of yourself whether

01:24:30.140 you want to be

01:24:30.860 or not and

01:24:31.940 there's a woman

01:24:32.360 calling attention

01:24:32.960 to that in this

01:24:33.520 soundbite 14

01:24:34.180 okay so there's

01:24:36.360 this new filter

01:24:37.000 on TikTok and

01:24:39.180 it's perfect look

01:24:40.420 at it you used

01:24:41.960 to do that

01:24:43.700 with an old

01:24:44.280 filter and you

01:24:45.040 would see the

01:24:45.440 lashes on your

01:24:46.060 hand like it

01:24:46.680 would glitch

01:24:47.300 but look how

01:24:48.400 perfect this is

01:24:49.560 I'm wearing no

01:24:50.280 makeup right now

01:24:51.100 this is all a

01:24:52.040 filter and it's

01:24:53.920 just scary because

01:24:55.600 there's a lot of

01:24:57.160 girls out there

01:24:57.680 that don't realize

01:24:58.740 when someone's

01:24:59.360 got a filter on

01:25:00.180 and they're

01:25:01.040 chasing perfection

01:25:01.860 because that's

01:25:02.540 what they think

01:25:03.140 everybody looks

01:25:03.760 like and this

01:25:04.240 is not what

01:25:04.840 people look like

01:25:05.840 all right wait

01:25:11.940 of these

01:25:12.160 TikTokers showed

01:25:13.100 the difference

01:25:14.620 between their

01:25:32.900 she's still pretty

01:25:33.600 with her real

01:25:34.160 face but my

01:25:34.740 god so different

01:25:35.840 Bridget and

01:25:36.960 they're all

01:25:37.300 pretty this is

01:25:39.380 like calamitous

01:25:40.240 oh I mean

01:25:41.980 the one the

01:25:42.760 one that cracked

01:25:43.640 me up I think

01:25:44.260 it was the

01:25:44.560 second one you

01:25:45.120 showed in that

01:25:45.660 lineup she's

01:25:46.360 like oh I'm

01:25:47.300 gonna take a

01:25:47.800 hit my I'm

01:25:48.920 gonna I'm about

01:25:49.620 my self-esteem is

01:25:50.940 about to take a

01:25:51.800 hit and then

01:25:52.380 they and she

01:25:53.100 takes the filter

01:25:53.800 off and she's

01:25:54.240 like oh and

01:25:55.260 you can see her

01:25:56.040 cringe and she's

01:25:57.540 partially joking but

01:25:58.500 this is also

01:25:59.020 partially true I

01:25:59.940 mean what I like

01:26:00.580 to have a filter

01:26:01.160 on your show

01:26:01.840 right now so

01:26:02.560 yeah that would

01:26:03.520 be great but it

01:26:04.740 still is you

01:26:06.400 know you look at

01:26:07.040 the I think

01:26:07.540 Jonathan height and

01:26:08.520 a lot of people

01:26:09.220 are talking about

01:26:09.920 how depressed

01:26:10.800 women in particular

01:26:12.160 are the young

01:26:12.840 girls and yeah

01:26:14.880 I'd be depressed

01:26:15.580 too if I was 14

01:26:16.800 years old and

01:26:17.420 growing up and

01:26:18.040 thought everybody

01:26:18.600 looked like a

01:26:19.740 Victoria's Secret

01:26:20.800 angel and I

01:26:22.500 looked in the

01:26:23.360 mirror and there

01:26:24.040 was one woman in

01:26:24.940 that because that

01:26:25.980 was a whole thread

01:26:26.660 that I found on

01:26:27.800 Twitter and one

01:26:28.720 woman was a

01:26:29.420 photographer and

01:26:30.080 she was saying

01:26:30.640 women were coming

01:26:31.840 and they were she

01:26:33.880 was taking pictures

01:26:34.580 of them and they

01:26:35.140 were so used to

01:26:36.100 looking at their

01:26:36.660 filtered face that

01:26:38.060 when she took

01:26:39.160 pictures of them

01:26:39.980 they were upset

01:26:41.200 and disappointed

01:26:41.860 even though they

01:26:42.560 were in makeup

01:26:43.140 and well lit she

01:26:44.240 said I'm a

01:26:44.860 professor professional

01:26:46.000 photographer and I

01:26:47.500 can't convince these

01:26:48.540 women that they're

01:26:49.160 beautiful because

01:26:49.920 they're so used to

01:26:51.480 looking at their

01:26:52.160 filtered face and if

01:26:53.600 you really want to

01:26:54.920 get creepy about it

01:26:56.000 eventually there

01:26:57.380 might be the time

01:26:58.820 where we're all

01:26:59.620 wearing kind of

01:27:00.380 augmented reality

01:27:01.780 lenses or glasses

01:27:03.640 and we'll just be

01:27:04.960 looking at everybody

01:27:05.900 we'll never have to

01:27:06.800 see and I'll go

01:27:07.980 again you know

01:27:08.940 no you're right

01:27:12.040 though I think about

01:27:12.560 the young girls like

01:27:13.520 the one comfort when

01:27:14.580 you're 13 and your

01:27:15.520 face is totally broken

01:27:16.980 out you've got your

01:27:17.920 braces on and your

01:27:19.540 face is just weird

01:27:20.320 like my face was a

01:27:21.200 lot rounder you

01:27:22.940 know like it just

01:27:23.700 thinned out and I

01:27:24.520 got bone structure

01:27:25.520 as I got older and

01:27:26.920 yeah I lost some

01:27:27.740 weight too but it

01:27:28.420 just part of it is

01:27:29.300 just you're younger

01:27:29.940 and the comfort is

01:27:32.480 everybody else looks

01:27:33.280 like that too right

01:27:34.480 like you didn't have

01:27:35.820 to look at everybody

01:27:37.040 with this perfect

01:27:38.260 weird mask on and

01:27:40.480 think oh I can't

01:27:41.420 show my real face

01:27:42.260 because I'll be the

01:27:42.860 only unattractive

01:27:43.760 one yeah it's not

01:27:46.700 it's not good for I

01:27:48.320 imagine anyone's

01:27:49.680 self-esteem and I

01:27:50.760 think that it is it

01:27:52.240 definitely you see

01:27:53.900 the studies they're

01:27:54.660 depressed and anxious

01:27:55.660 and I was saying I

01:27:56.500 would be depressed

01:27:57.120 and anxious too if

01:27:58.180 this is this is what

01:27:59.560 I was feeling like I

01:28:00.500 had to compete with

01:28:01.560 even just on

01:28:03.180 even in like the

01:28:04.460 dating world how

01:28:05.440 are you feeling

01:28:06.280 okay and what if

01:28:07.600 you're going out

01:28:08.220 there and it just

01:28:09.980 opens up I I'm more

01:28:11.880 of a Luddite though I

01:28:12.800 know there are people

01:28:13.520 who are much more

01:28:15.080 like this is progress

01:28:16.800 this is the future

01:28:17.860 no one will ever have

01:28:19.360 to feel like insecure

01:28:20.840 again because they can

01:28:21.980 just always be their

01:28:23.060 filter but I think

01:28:25.200 it's I find it

01:28:25.960 unsettling just the

01:28:27.260 them trying to kind

01:28:28.320 of take that face off

01:28:29.920 that they all kept

01:28:31.660 doing it because

01:28:32.340 like she was saying

01:28:33.520 it used to glitch

01:28:34.320 so you could see

01:28:35.100 that there was a

01:28:35.700 filter but seeing

01:28:36.900 them try and take

01:28:37.980 that off there was

01:28:38.940 something about that

01:28:39.900 action of trying

01:28:42.100 to you could see

01:28:43.800 them trying to work

01:28:44.920 out the cognitive

01:28:45.680 dissonance of their

01:28:46.640 face and and their

01:28:49.080 actual face there was

01:28:50.480 just something really

01:28:51.480 unsettling to me about

01:28:53.420 it I I gotta tell you

01:28:55.120 something now I I

01:28:57.540 believe in hair and

01:28:58.500 makeup very clearly

01:28:59.580 and I believe in

01:29:01.120 spending some time in

01:29:02.080 in making yourself

01:29:03.000 look like your best

01:29:03.660 self like the best

01:29:04.520 but yourself not not

01:29:07.580 somebody else's version

01:29:08.460 of you not China's

01:29:09.460 version of you their

01:29:10.500 weird filter of you

01:29:11.640 and I will tell you a

01:29:13.520 lot of people ask me

01:29:14.060 about makeup and one

01:29:14.820 of these days I'm going

01:29:15.340 to do a makeup tutorial

01:29:16.420 and I'll put it out

01:29:17.580 there and exactly how I

01:29:18.440 do my makeup every day

01:29:19.320 but can I tell you I

01:29:20.580 learned it from some

01:29:21.620 girl on YouTube I

01:29:23.320 just I was I was like I

01:29:24.340 no longer have a makeup

01:29:25.080 artist doing my face

01:29:26.020 every day I do have a

01:29:27.480 hair girl come a few

01:29:28.300 times a week as you can

01:29:29.200 tell today was not one

01:29:30.000 of them but so I do

01:29:33.220 my own makeup and I

01:29:34.080 learned it off of

01:29:34.680 YouTube and I am just

01:29:35.380 telling you it's very

01:29:36.140 easy it's like YouTube

01:29:37.220 sort of another

01:29:39.140 compliment for them

01:29:39.920 it took a beating in

01:29:40.840 the first hour they've

01:29:42.680 got a lot of these

01:29:43.540 tutorials that can help

01:29:44.540 you make yourself look

01:29:45.460 better the real you

01:29:46.560 you know they can

01:29:47.140 enhance everybody's

01:29:48.500 got a nice feature

01:29:49.180 maybe it's your lips

01:29:50.060 maybe it's your eyes

01:29:51.000 maybe it's your hair

01:29:51.760 whatever it is but you

01:29:53.120 can figure out a way to

01:29:53.900 enhance your very best

01:29:54.800 feature for no money

01:29:56.420 it's free that's how I

01:29:58.320 figured out how to do

01:29:58.920 my makeup and it's it

01:30:00.140 was a game changer once

01:30:00.980 you learn how to do it

01:30:01.780 can really make things

01:30:02.440 pop and feel better

01:30:03.620 about yourself in that

01:30:04.460 way and it's the real

01:30:05.900 you yes it's you made

01:30:07.000 up but that's still you

01:30:08.260 it's not some weird fake

01:30:09.480 version that you have to

01:30:10.200 feel insecure about when

01:30:11.780 you go walking on the

01:30:12.520 streets God forbid you

01:30:13.420 meet somebody who only

01:30:14.740 knows you through your

01:30:15.460 filter Bridget yeah last

01:30:17.680 word

01:30:17.940 what was that sorry I

01:30:21.060 said I'll give you the

01:30:22.220 last word on it oh yeah

01:30:24.600 that that I was just

01:30:25.780 thinking about that's

01:30:26.600 actually the amazing

01:30:27.380 thing about YouTube is

01:30:28.420 you can learn anything

01:30:29.380 um I really I find any

01:30:32.440 anything you want to

01:30:33.260 learn you can learn on

01:30:33.960 YouTube and they have

01:30:34.700 some of the best makeup

01:30:35.600 tutorials like you said

01:30:37.340 I just feel seeing those

01:30:40.260 women and their the

01:30:41.420 crushing weight as they

01:30:43.040 fell apart realizing that

01:30:45.000 that wasn't what their

01:30:45.780 actually face looked like

01:30:46.800 because as the guy who

01:30:47.980 did that thread was

01:30:49.020 showing people in one of

01:30:50.600 his videos it actually

01:30:51.780 changes your bone

01:30:52.720 structure and it's based

01:30:54.260 on what it looked it

01:30:57.020 it looked like they yeah

01:30:58.060 their cheeks were like

01:30:59.060 and their eyebrows like

01:31:00.540 right it would lower

01:31:02.180 their eyes and raise

01:31:03.960 their eyebrows but lower

01:31:04.920 their forehead he was

01:31:05.920 showing all the things

01:31:06.760 that it did to his face

01:31:07.720 because it's based on

01:31:08.680 computational mod models

01:31:10.260 of beauty and it does

01:31:12.040 weird things to your

01:31:13.040 cheeks and and then you

01:31:14.760 take that off and I feel

01:31:16.420 like for all of the talk

01:31:17.760 about loving yourself

01:31:19.680 and self-esteem and

01:31:21.540 mental health and to

01:31:22.840 better up and all of

01:31:24.740 these things you you

01:31:26.500 have to be okay with

01:31:27.680 who you are you have to

01:31:29.400 be okay that this you

01:31:31.520 also can't be always

01:31:33.020 looking outward likes and

01:31:35.100 it's got to come from

01:31:36.620 something inside you have

01:31:38.100 to find a way to be

01:31:39.660 settled with yourself when

01:31:41.920 you're sitting alone

01:31:42.940 looking in a mirror who

01:31:45.180 you can't be it can't

01:31:47.320 come from your beauty

01:31:48.220 your beauty is gonna

01:31:48.960 fade it can't come from

01:31:50.340 your money and your

01:31:51.680 power and your number of

01:31:54.000 followers that you have

01:31:55.180 that will inevitably leave

01:31:56.840 you feeling empty and

01:31:58.800 always feeling like you're

01:32:00.320 lacking and always chasing

01:32:01.600 more and it's just I I

01:32:04.560 feel like the emphasis

01:32:05.540 should be placed on trying

01:32:07.420 to be okay with who you

01:32:09.620 are not chasing all of

01:32:11.240 this external stuff that

01:32:13.520 is really not gonna

01:32:15.120 matter at the end of the

01:32:16.460 day when you're sitting

01:32:17.300 like what if you want if

01:32:19.060 you want to look better

01:32:20.500 you can do that you can

01:32:22.900 do that you don't need

01:32:24.040 TikTok you can make

01:32:26.020 yourself look better it's

01:32:27.320 so easy I mean the way

01:32:29.700 makeup is cheap now

01:32:30.980 Bethany Frankel does a

01:32:31.980 great thing where she

01:32:32.740 gives you like the the

01:32:33.620 best makeups at like

01:32:35.100 Walmart and CVS and so

01:32:36.220 on everything's been sort

01:32:37.660 of democratized in a good

01:32:38.680 way yeah so I'm very

01:32:41.340 much in favor of like

01:32:42.340 making yourself the best

01:32:43.700 version of you because I

01:32:44.760 do yeah looking good it

01:32:45.840 gives you a level of

01:32:46.640 confidence that you don't

01:32:48.300 have when you feel like

01:32:49.220 you look bad but of

01:32:50.940 course that this is

01:32:51.660 absurd this is not you

01:32:52.980 that this is fake this

01:32:54.200 is cheating and it's not

01:32:55.720 even cheating that's gonna

01:32:56.440 get you anywhere it's

01:32:57.120 gonna make you feel like

01:32:57.840 crap and make it like

01:32:59.480 they were talking about

01:33:00.340 this at this thing I was

01:33:01.120 at where they were like

01:33:01.980 people are starting to

01:33:03.740 feel uncomfortable about

01:33:04.800 meeting others in real

01:33:05.680 life because they're only

01:33:06.620 used to like having the

01:33:08.060 fake version of them out

01:33:08.880 there in the dating world

01:33:10.000 online dating can you

01:33:11.540 imagine you show up and

01:33:12.520 they're like where are

01:33:13.560 your enormous cheekbones

01:33:17.400 the TikTok version of me

01:33:56.280 2024 Pat in North

01:33:57.720 Carolina writes I would

01:33:59.000 love to see a Trump

01:33:59.920 DeSantis ticket to

01:34:01.340 DeSantis as VP would

01:34:02.680 get the feel of DC

01:34:03.400 politics Trump knows all

01:34:04.920 the bad guys in

01:34:05.640 Washington and DeSantis

01:34:06.640 would learn the only

01:34:07.980 uncertainty is Trump's

01:34:08.960 ego would he mentor to

01:34:10.660 save our country hmm on

01:34:13.940 the Murdoch trial which

01:34:14.800 we covered quite a bit

01:34:15.600 Jay writes in remember

01:34:16.660 how Alec Murdoch couldn't

01:34:17.640 remember his last

01:34:18.460 conversation with his

01:34:19.240 wife or son I burst

01:34:21.140 into tears when you

01:34:21.900 stated that a person

01:34:22.720 would surely remember

01:34:23.520 the last words that

01:34:24.880 they shared with a loved

01:34:26.000 one I know I do it's

01:34:27.820 been three years now

01:34:28.940 Jay I understand and

01:34:30.780 don't you think that

01:34:31.660 was so telling just one

01:34:33.520 of the many reasons he

01:34:34.600 wound up convicted of

01:34:35.520 double murder on the

01:34:36.980 subject of swearing I'm

01:34:38.240 doing a very poor job of

01:34:39.480 giving up swearing for

01:34:40.360 Lent as I did last year I

01:34:41.500 should have chosen

01:34:42.000 something else I get it

01:34:43.160 hope springs eternal but

01:34:45.080 Wendy writes in I gave up

01:34:46.460 swearing several years ago

01:34:47.480 for Lent too I dropped

01:34:49.480 eight F-bombs I feel ya

01:34:51.120 this year dark chocolate

01:34:53.000 Wendy that's what I should

01:34:54.280 have done I already gave up

01:34:55.960 dark chocolate and nuts a

01:34:57.900 couple of months ago I

01:34:58.700 could have just folded that

01:34:59.640 into my Lenten vow and

01:35:00.980 gotten credit for it you know

01:35:02.860 why I gave them up because

01:35:04.280 I was getting styes in my

01:35:06.680 eyes and I found out those

01:35:08.880 things actually can cause

01:35:10.120 styes can I tell you I

01:35:11.520 haven't gotten one since I

01:35:12.700 gave up dark chocolate and

01:35:13.680 nuts it's been amazing so if

01:35:15.340 you are a stye sufferer

01:35:17.120 FYI Elizabeth writes on

01:35:19.320 career advice I was laid out

01:35:20.520 from my job at a consulting

01:35:22.260 firm I've been looking for

01:35:23.080 words of inspo to help me

01:35:24.080 along I truly resonated with

01:35:26.320 your philosophy to settle for

01:35:27.320 more any advice for a woman

01:35:28.340 in her early 20s was in the

01:35:30.160 middle of starting a career

01:35:31.660 Elizabeth try try try and

01:35:35.360 get ready to fail fail fail

01:35:37.440 and embrace all the

01:35:38.860 failures because that's the

01:35:39.680 only way you ever learn you

01:35:41.040 always do learn more from the

01:35:42.260 failures than from the

01:35:43.500 successes and the victories

01:35:44.520 and also just spend some time

01:35:46.120 thinking about like what am I

01:35:47.260 genuinely good at and what

01:35:49.000 fires me up you may not be

01:35:50.440 able to have like the

01:35:51.620 workspace be your play space as

01:35:54.120 Harry's buddy says but what

01:35:56.140 fires you up and what would

01:35:57.160 make you look forward to

01:35:58.040 going into the office all day

01:35:59.160 and like you know spending

01:36:00.360 your time doing this thing

01:36:01.820 that's a good goal spend

01:36:02.940 some time thinking about

01:36:03.720 that and how to channel your

01:36:05.360 best skills toward that

01:36:06.920 goal and then just keep

01:36:08.420 throwing darts at the board

01:36:09.500 don't don't stop you know if

01:36:11.160 you fail so what all right

01:36:12.320 you'll try again you're in

01:36:13.120 your 20s this is when you

01:36:14.060 should be doing all your

01:36:14.740 failing but the secret is

01:36:17.220 even when you're failing

01:36:18.060 you're winning and you're

01:36:18.760 getting stronger you're

01:36:19.400 getting wiser you're getting

01:36:20.140 better and eventually you'll

01:36:21.960 land it thank you all so
