The Megyn Kelly Show - Steven Crowder on His YouTube Suspension, Fatherhood, and His Near-Death Health Scare ｜ Ep. 183

00:00:00.460 Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, your home for open, honest, and provocative conversations.

00:00:12.500 Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. Big show for you today.

00:00:17.360 We are welcoming back one of my all-time favorite guests. When I interviewed Stephen Crowder

00:00:24.000 nearly a year ago, it became instantly one of our top downloaded episodes. And I don't think

00:00:30.720 I've ever laughed so hard in an interview. I still recall it so fondly. My husband loved it.

00:00:36.840 We all loved it. Maybe you're a fan of Crowder's like me and are one of his 5.5 million YouTube

00:00:43.180 subscribers. Maybe not. You're about to be. But the thing about Crowder is he hasn't posted a video

00:00:50.600 to YouTube in five days, even though he dominates there. Why? He is currently suspended from the

00:00:58.060 platform, at least insofar as him posting his show. We will get into that, plus what it's like being a

00:01:05.720 new father of twins and his recent health scare that almost killed him. I mean, it was really

00:01:11.340 scary. He had twins and almost died in like the same month. And now he's been left with titanium

00:01:18.140 steel bars in his chest. So he really is kind of now the man of steel. Stephen, welcome back. Great

00:01:24.480 to have you. Well, thank you very much for having me. I hate to fact check you right on the outset,

00:01:28.840 but steel is different. There's a certain level of carbon versus the alloy that titanium is. And

00:01:35.400 one is technically more rigid, but also brittle. It's why they have to crack tungsten versus cut

00:01:40.860 something like cobalt. My point is, let's not get off on the wrong foot and find ourselves in front

00:01:44.640 page of media matters just because you wanted to get you wanted to get snippy. I wanted to lose. I

00:01:51.120 wanted to weaken your titanium rods down to steel. OK, there's so much to go over. Let's just start

00:01:56.720 with the newsiest part, which is what YouTube's doing to you. OK, so YouTube has given you what's

00:02:02.740 called a hard strike. If you get three hard strikes in a 90 day period, you are permanently banned

00:02:08.440 from YouTube. Your show gets booted. That's just not going to happen. I just can't imagine that

00:02:13.860 they're going to do that to you. You're too popular. There would be too big a backlash,

00:02:17.040 but they're setting you up. There's certainly they certainly seem to be setting you up. So

00:02:21.420 explain to us what would you do? Well, what would you do? Good question. And the usual answer is

00:02:28.720 something wrong, especially I find as a new father with with twins. I've also realized just how useless

00:02:32.860 I am as a father. I'm sure you and your husband went through this. There's there's so little I can do.

00:02:37.500 My wife is like a Swiss army knife and she pats the babies and she burps them and she burps them and 1.00

00:02:41.300 she's changing them. And I'm like, am I supporting the head? And I just upset them when they cry. I

00:02:45.860 don't comfort them at all. And I can't hold them on my chest. Turns out, do you know why? I found

00:02:49.960 out that a bed of I think I can say this word, a bed of breasts of bosom is more comfortable than

00:02:55.880 titanium. So if I were a child, I would choose my mom over a titanium chest as well. YouTube.

00:03:03.520 Look, the hard strike term is something people don't fully understand. So if I can explain it for a

00:03:06.780 second, they'll be thinking of an ex NFL player in an elevator with his girlfriend. It's a strike

00:03:11.480 from YouTube that's different from like a copyright violation. A hard strike is YouTube saying, all

00:03:16.420 right, we are hitting your channel. We're leaving a mark. We're making it count. And in this case,

00:03:20.720 we can't upload. We can't stream. Really, you know, they've changed their algorithms where if you

00:03:26.160 search Steven Crowder abortion, for example, you'll find 25 other videos often before you find ours.

00:03:32.620 And these will be videos that are less relevant with fewer plays. So we're not really in search.

00:03:36.660 We're not really in browse to the degree of other channels. If you watch my video, you all of a

00:03:40.940 sudden get a Seth Meyers video for some reason. That's how their algorithms work. Now they just,

00:03:45.420 okay, we're just going to strike you and remove you from YouTube. And the reason for it is what's

00:03:48.680 so concerning, Megan, especially I know you've talked about with with your children, you know,

00:03:53.660 going through this situation at school. We covered a story, very specific story of female inmates in

00:04:00.640 California becoming pregnant. And we also talked about a record number of transgender or males who

00:04:06.300 identify as females going into all women's prisons. So the joke that they banned this episode for 1.00

00:04:12.740 was, uh, I covered the story, men going into prisons and women's getting women getting pregnant,

00:04:18.260 pregnancy protocols. So the only conclusion I could come to since, uh, transgender males are exactly the 1.00

00:04:24.720 same as biological females was that of immaculate conception. And it went to a sketch with, with the 0.89

00:04:31.180 angel of Gabriel, uh, appearing to Mary in a cell, letting her know, uh, that she would have a miracle

00:04:36.060 birth, but it would actually be at the hands of her violent cellmate. So it was a sketch. It's rough,

00:04:41.000 red rough on the paper. I'm not saying it's for everybody, uh, but it was deliberately designed

00:04:44.920 to drive the point home as to what we're allowed and not even allowed to say the language from the

00:04:50.060 YouTube attorney is, I do find solace in this. Megan, a very expensive hourly attorney who had to draft 1.00

00:04:56.340 up a letter to me. So at least there, you know, I cost him a few thousand dollars said, uh, you can't

00:05:02.040 call violence upon any group, which I never would, um, spread hate, I think is a little more generic,

00:05:07.980 but it said, uh, or indicate that transgender individuals may pose a rape threat to women.

00:05:15.780 Now, keep in mind, this was applied retroactively to a video that had already been reviewed that had

00:05:20.920 already been uploaded a week ago. Uh, and it was fine then. I mean, everything's demonetized anyway.

00:05:24.860 I don't make a dime off of YouTube, but it came down on us the day that we had a gangbusters episode

00:05:31.160 about the Loudoun County situation where let me just interject and ask you previously, when you got

00:05:36.840 in trouble with YouTube, would it take a week for them to say, we've got a problem with this episode?

00:05:42.580 There were two different scenarios. No, with the Vox apocalypse, it was immediate. Uh, and then one

00:05:47.900 time with the CDC issue, you know, we had this over Christmas where we quoted the CDC. We referenced and

00:05:53.480 showed the CDC stats on the number of average seasonal flu deaths with children versus, uh, COVID deaths.

00:06:01.060 And I won't even, I can't even specify those numbers because I don't want you to get in trouble.

00:06:04.220 That was applied retroactively weeks earlier. So we've had both. Usually it's been immediate.

00:06:09.420 This is the second time they've gone back through time and said, this isn't acceptable now.

00:06:13.420 Okay. So finish your point. So the week went by after, I should point out that the angel of

00:06:18.120 Gabriel in your skit was being played by Alex Jones and you, and he said, basically you said,

00:06:23.900 what is, what is this going to happen? If a woman gets pregnant in, uh, in prison and an all women's 1.00

00:06:28.040 prison, is it a, is it an immaculate conception? And Alex Jones as an angel says, um, a baby is to

00:06:33.260 be born in the cell. A virgin birth is asked. He says, no, your cellmate, that guy right there

00:06:37.400 dressed as a woman, he's going to rape you repeatedly. So you, you have that up for a 0.96

00:06:42.200 week. They don't tell you have to take it down. It's obviously when you say it, it's a comedy sketch.

00:06:49.780 I get it. And we're going to get to the numbers on what's actually happening in prisons and so on.

00:06:53.340 But, um, he says that. And then a week later that you get the YouTube letter, but you were saying

00:06:59.560 that the letter comes on the same day that you covered. Yeah. Within hours of us covering the

00:07:04.880 Loudoun story, the Loudoun County story for people who don't know a young man. And I was very clear

00:07:09.040 to not even say transgender because the reports at this time were saying a young bisexual boy

00:07:13.600 in a skirt. Okay. So I had to say that, uh, had raped a young girl in the school board effectively

00:07:21.160 did nothing. And it was verified through a rape kit and that, uh, young boy, bisexual boy in a skirt 0.97

00:07:26.540 raped again. So we covered this. And of course, uh, parents were outraged. So we covered it. That's

00:07:31.180 when we got this letter saying you are not allowed to indicate, this is a quote, indicating

00:07:36.340 that transgender individuals pose a rape threat to women. Here's what's so concerning. Sure. We 1.00

00:07:41.920 covered specific instances. And I understand the difference between covering specific instances

00:07:45.960 and attacking the actions of a specific person, you know, um, like rape. I don't know. Call me.

00:07:52.920 That's me, Mr. Old Fashioned. I think rape is evil, regardless of whether the guy's wearing a skirt 0.73

00:07:57.760 when doing it. I'm, I'm, you know, I'm not afraid to take a risk here, Megan, and say that I'm anti

00:08:01.780 rape. Um, but what I do think is a problem is you do need to be able to make a broad generalization

00:08:07.600 to express concern. There were over a hundred parents lined up at that municipal meeting

00:08:11.280 in Loudoun County, and they were going to express their concern over this new intergender bathroom 0.66

00:08:16.880 policy. Why? Well, because we're concerned as parents that it could pose a rape threat to our

00:08:21.920 daughters. And that's the issue right now with these companies under two 30 being protected,

00:08:26.500 uh, as a digital town square in the real town square, you can say things that are impermissible

00:08:32.700 on all of Facebook, YouTube, Twitter. And that is very, very frightening. This is, I would argue,

00:08:40.160 it's not a coincidence that this happened after, uh, the, uh, Loudoun story only hours after. And I

00:08:46.600 would argue that it's not a coincidence that this language was designed to be interpreted so broadly

00:08:51.240 that it could in fact remove anyone who discusses that story. These, the, your story and the

00:08:56.320 story of the Loudoun County dad are running parallel in a way because the Loudoun County dad was

00:09:01.920 publicly humiliated in the public square. He was fat shamed. He was mocked by the mainstream media.

00:09:08.140 Like, look at this rube showing up at a school board meeting. He's such a moron, you know, 0.97

00:09:13.180 protesting. And then it comes out, thanks to the daily wires reporting that the guy was there. He was

00:09:19.100 upset at the superintendent who's now been totally humiliated by the way. And there are calls for him

00:09:23.760 to resign. He hasn't, but he's apologizing. He's publicly apologizing because he was in the wrong,

00:09:28.660 the superintendent. Um, because the superintendent at that meeting was telling people that there

00:09:33.660 hadn't been a sexual assault in the bathrooms and it wasn't true. It had just happened. And he knew,

00:09:40.700 he knew that it wasn't true. Now he's saying, Oh, well, I thought it was like specific to just trans

00:09:46.600 kids. Okay. Yeah. A kid, a bisexual kid wearing a skirt goes into the girl's bathroom and rapes a 1.00

00:09:53.100 girl. The parents aren't splitting hairs about whether the kids actually trans. They want to 0.91

00:09:57.840 know whether the bathrooms are safe and the girls are safe. That's what they're not looking for some

00:10:02.480 legalized parsed word. Well, technically true. And he knew it. So he lied. The dad was mad. An

00:10:09.820 activist got in his face and called his daughter a bitch, a ninth grade rape victim. She called her a 1.00

00:10:15.560 bitch and the dad got mad. That's what we're seeing in that video. You go out there to try to 1.00

00:10:21.820 talk about the Loudon incident and you go out there and we can talk about the particulars of

00:10:26.160 the prison situation, but it is absolutely a problem right now that trans women just have to say 0.52

00:10:33.240 biological men just have to say they're trans women and they can be transferred right into an 0.99

00:10:38.100 all women's prison. And female prisoners have repeatedly expressed their concern over their safety.

00:10:44.080 Yeah. I mean, look, I remember being dragged by my ear down to the dean's office because I didn't have

00:10:49.260 the right hall pass. Okay. If I knew that I had to get out of jail free card, wandering my high school

00:10:54.200 halls by tossing on a skirt and saying, you want to lift it up and check the genitalia? I think I have 0.97

00:10:58.900 a right to be in a lady's restroom. The point is this policy of so absurd that the boy who claims to be 0.98

00:11:03.180 bisexual and wearing a skirt, no one called him on it anyway. Like, Hey son, you wouldn't happen to be 0.99

00:11:09.120 one of those transgenders. Are you? You can't ask questions. I'm wearing a skirt. Oh, okay. I'm 1.00

00:11:13.220 sorry. You're free to rape. We're that far on down the trail. And look, this is, we, we, we talked

00:11:18.800 about how me too. And of course, look, people like Weinstein, of course. Okay. I understand these

00:11:24.240 people shouldn't see the light of day again. I'm also surprised that, uh, that, that former

00:11:28.680 president, President Bill Clinton hasn't made the poster boy for sexual assault. But I digress.

00:11:33.360 We used to say, well, we were silencing women right at the power of white men. Now we're 0.95

00:11:39.540 silencing rape victims, uh, at the cost of the feelings of transgender individuals. This 0.76

00:11:44.620 is not an isolated incident. And I'm certainly not. Let me be really clear. I've never said

00:11:49.460 that all transgenders are rapists. I've never implied that all transgenders are rapists

00:11:53.500 because I don't believe that all transgenders are rapists, despite what YouTube want people

00:11:58.120 to believe, simply saying that a law like this, and certainly policies that are this murky

00:12:03.680 allow predators to take advantage in what are meant to be women only spaces. But when you 0.90

00:12:10.020 say, ah, they are women only spaces. Uh, well, I meant women only spaces. What do you mean 0.97

00:12:15.880 by women only spaces? Well, I meant, uh, I meant, I meant no penises. Can we, I meant no penis 1.00

00:12:20.640 spaces.

00:12:21.120 Mm hmm. Well, so here's the thing, two, two points on this. We looked it up to find

00:12:27.140 out cause most of the reporting links back to this wolf. Uh, it's W O L F, which is an

00:12:32.260 acronym stands for, uh, women's liberation front. Who's been, it's a feminist organization 1.00

00:12:36.960 that's, that's been reporting on this. And so far as we can tell, they claim that a female

00:12:42.240 inmate in a California women's prison became pregnant after biological males, trans women,

00:12:47.440 um, were housed in the prison. We have not been able to confirm that daily daily wire,

00:12:52.680 Ben Shapiro's organization. They did some work trying to confirm that as well. And the California,

00:12:57.420 uh, Bureau of prisons is denying it saying we do have some pregnant women in our prisons, 0.98

00:13:02.720 but they were pregnant when they got here. They were not impregnated by trans

00:13:06.180 prisoners who'd been transferred from the men men's prison. But wolf, this organization is standing by

00:13:12.000 it's reporting saying we're in contact with women in these prisons. And our information often

00:13:17.520 comes out before yours does. So I don't know what the truth is, but there certainly has been this

00:13:22.960 reporting out there and it is indisputable that the California prisons are allowing biological males

00:13:29.640 in thanks to a law pushed by assemblyman Scott Wiener. Um, and now there are, um, have you guys,

00:13:35.920 this is important. Do you know who Scott Wiener is? Do you know what his most famous piece of

00:13:41.120 legislation was before this non-disclosure laws? If you have AIDS or HIV, I know some people right 1.00

00:13:48.160 here in your, your show right now are listening. Like, I don't even have a chip for that. That's,

00:13:50.660 that sounds like a kind of law where you could, uh, you could infect someone with your viral load

00:13:57.100 of HIV or AIDS without their knowledge. Yes, that's exactly what it is. They thought that requiring people

00:14:03.040 who have HIV AIDS to disclose that they have HIV AIDS and sexual encounters with strangers, uh, would be

00:14:09.860 stigmatizing to those who may have HIV AIDS and infect strangers. So Scott Wiener, he really made this

00:14:15.860 his raison d'etre between, uh, leather chokers at the Folsom Street Fair. And I don't just say that as a broad

00:14:20.940 generalization, to be clear, you can find the pictures. So this guy really has his priorities straight

00:14:25.880 while people have to step over pools of human excrement like Frogger in the state of California right now

00:14:32.000 that he's decided this is his new law, but sorry, continue. Just as I love it when you,

00:14:36.060 when you use your French, he's, he's from Canada. Uh, he's, his mother's French Canadian. I love it

00:14:40.480 when you use your French and it sounds legit. Um, okay. So the number, the numbers is, uh, the numbers

00:14:46.060 are, let's say, uh, I don't know, it's something like 300 people have identified themselves as trans so

00:14:51.260 far. The, uh, uh, let me see 20 of the requests, uh, have been processed so far, but none have been

00:14:58.420 denied, including those according to the national review requested by male sex offenders. Now I

00:15:04.740 actually dug deep on that too. I clicked on the Lincoln national review. Where are they,

00:15:08.760 where are they getting that, that, you know, previously male sex offenders now say that

00:15:11.960 they're trans and they want to go to the women's prisons. The national review link takes you to a 1.00

00:15:15.820 Santa Monica observer article and a report directly from a female inmate named Amber S. Jackson

00:15:21.880 claiming that HIV positive male trans female sex offenders are in prison now.

00:15:28.420 Having sex with female inmates. She's posted repeatedly over there. I don't know whether 0.86

00:15:32.640 this is the source. Look, none of this actually needs to be confirmed because we do have, and you

00:15:38.440 posted this several actual confirmed cases, um, in the past of trans individuals hurting other people

00:15:48.300 via, via sexual assault or rape that it's not to say that all trans individuals do this. As you

00:15:53.500 already pointed out, it's just to point out that it is a problem. It has happened and people are not

00:15:59.780 completely off their rocker to be concerned about trans women being put in women's prisons.

00:16:05.300 Well, here's, here's the issue right here. And I understand you're, you're doing your due diligence.

00:16:08.740 And for people who don't know, like I'm a comedian, but we make sure all of our references are publicly

00:16:12.560 available. And what's important to keep in mind is we are looking for something, right? An

00:16:17.440 anecdotal story, but we are acknowledging the empirical, the problem. Now we just talked about

00:16:22.380 on our show, a ministry of justice study at the UK, 59.6. And this source is available at

00:16:28.160 ladderwithcreditor.com. I can give you the link in the description. 59.6 of male to female

00:16:32.460 transgenders who are in UK prisons are sex offenders. 13% of cis basic, uh, heterosexual,

00:16:40.040 uh, supposedly males in prison and about 3% of women, 59% of male to female transgender

00:16:46.080 individuals. This is an empirical study. Now let's apply this to the Loudoun County situation,

00:16:50.000 right? Where we say empirical studies show us, or at least suggest that there could be a greater

00:16:54.340 risk of sexual assault when you have these intergender bathroom policies. What did they 0.97

00:16:57.940 say? It's never happened here. We know they were lying. We know they were lying. Why would we trust

00:17:04.140 the prisons right now? And I can't tell you who we're communicating with, with people in the

00:17:07.520 prisons. The empirical is irrefutable and the anecdotal of course is being hidden. And I

00:17:12.520 don't think it requires a conspiracy theorist mind, you know, uh, George W. Bush next to tower seven

00:17:18.740 with acne plunger to understand that of course they would have every incentive in these prison

00:17:23.000 systems in California to cover up the effects of their absolutely horrendous laws. We already know

00:17:29.120 women have been harmed by transgender inmates. We already know that there are many women who have

00:17:33.260 become pregnant in prison. Women shouldn't be pregnant period in prison. That's not supposed 1.00

00:17:38.540 to happen. Now the anecdotal, they say these women who are speaking out are lying. Okay. But you said 0.88

00:17:45.380 that about, if you're willing to say it about a young girl in a public school, don't really think I

00:17:50.060 trust you when it comes to our correctional facilities, especially when you're talking about

00:17:52.920 a law that comes from Mr. I should knowingly be able to infect an HIV, uh, to, to use my HIV viral load

00:18:01.420 to infect a stranger without his knowledge. Wiener, that's his policy. People think it sounds absurd

00:18:07.840 because it is. Look it up. That's the thing. So the YouTube offense at you allegedly suggesting, um,

00:18:16.200 they, they say you indicated that trans people pose a rape threat to women. Um, we, we need to be able

00:18:24.020 to talk about the fear by biological women in prison, that that may happen and reports, um, that the sex

00:18:33.000 is happening between biological males who are to say they're trans and women in these prisons as told by

00:18:39.000 this Amber Jackson, a sauna, Santa Monica observer among others. And if we, we can't get banned for having

00:18:45.900 such a discussion, you never said that all trans people are going to rape the women in these

00:18:51.080 prisons, but it's a, it's a very real issue that's been raised in the mainstream press, nevermind by

00:18:56.300 Steven Crowder, by me, by many others. So it's crazy for YouTube to try to be cracking down on just you

00:19:03.180 because you did it in sort of a more humorous way, which was obviously a parody. There's a specific

00:19:09.020 carve out for comedy to be clear. So they have problems with hair on them. It's Alex Jones as an angel.

00:19:13.680 It's obviously comedy. Yes. Who? Okay. You have to, it takes a lot of work to make something that

00:19:20.520 stupid. Okay. I deliberately decided to cast Alex Jones as the angel Gabriel because it's hysterical

00:19:27.260 and I make no apologies for it, but let's look at the YouTube statement really quickly. And it's not

00:19:32.220 that I indicated, it says you are not allowed to indicate, right? Indicating. So that means open-ended

00:19:37.920 anyone else. That means you, that means people at daily wire. That's what's so scary about it. But let's,

00:19:42.800 let's just look at that phrase, the fact that some people might agree with it, indicating that

00:19:46.700 transgender individuals may pose a rape threat to women. Well, yeah, that's mean. Let me change 1.00

00:19:51.220 one thing. Indicating that biological males could pose a rape threat to women. Would anyone on earth

00:19:57.980 disagree with that sentiment? That biological males could pose a rape threat to women? Who rapes women?

00:20:04.760 Biological males, primarily. That's also an offensive term. They don't want us to use the term

00:20:08.500 biological males right now. So when people go out and say, this is this culture or, you know, 0.69

00:20:12.220 these, these think tank libertarians, right? Or we just want to talk about the debt. Look,

00:20:16.560 taxes ebb and flow. Let's talk about this issue, the elimination of gender lines. 0.83

00:20:20.680 It affects everything in our country. What do I mean by that? Well, not only does it affect big tech,

00:20:26.160 as we're talking about right now, it affects parental rights. If you say that men and women are

00:20:30.080 fundamentally interchangeable, if you say that a biological man who claims to be a transgender woman

00:20:33.860 is the exact same thing as a biological woman, which is what the push is. Let's be clear.

00:20:38.080 You lose your parental rights to raise your children as you see fit. Not to mention,

00:20:43.000 what are we talking about with private businesses, business rights? You think not wanting to be

00:20:47.300 involved in a gay wedding ceremony, baking that cake was bad. What do you think is going to happen 1.00

00:20:52.240 with businesses that are gender selective? Places like all women's gyms or places that have all 1.00

00:20:57.900 women's locker rooms, beauty salons. Not to mention, this will affect our political discourse. 1.00

00:21:02.340 You can have people from the left who go up, who of course agree with this sentiment. The anti-science

00:21:07.260 crowd who say, well, yes, biological men who transition to women, they're the exact same thing

00:21:11.640 as biological women. They're allowed to speak freely and C-SPAN can air it and CNN can regurgitate 1.00

00:21:16.540 it all across YouTube, Facebook, whatever source happens to exist at that point in time. Whereas

00:21:21.280 someone like Senator Rand Paul or Ted Cruz, their rebuttal is no longer allowed to be spoken. Not to

00:21:26.100 mention, it of course ties into the speech issue. You can now eliminate voices of anyone

00:21:32.160 who disagrees with the established fact that biological men can in fact be the exact equivalent

00:21:40.280 to biological women if they claim to be. And here's the other piece of it. Here's the other 0.77

00:21:44.520 piece of it. Even if it's not a trans individual who poses the risk to the girls or the women in the 0.96

00:21:49.900 case of prisons, you can have situations where a biological man who is not trans takes advantage

00:21:56.060 of the law to go into the facility and cause harm. That's another concern by the activists.

00:22:02.760 Now, people can decide-

00:22:04.180 That would be me, Megan. If I was sentenced, if Susan Wojcicki had her way and they pinned me down,

00:22:07.840 they'd say, life in prison. You know, I didn't get the light concurrent sentences. I would say,

00:22:12.080 all right, I'm looking at life. Well, I'm a woman and I'd like to be free to go into the female

00:22:16.560 prison. And they would say, oh, well, there's been this huge track record of you saying these

00:22:19.980 anti-LGBT trans theory stuff. And I would say, look, I was clearly, it was repressed

00:22:24.900 transgender. I was a repressed transgender. I was fighting against my own urges. And even right 0.99

00:22:30.880 now, they would point to this and say, well, right here, this is evidence. And I would say,

00:22:33.260 you look back, this is an obvious cry for help. And I'll go on my merry way and I'll be the biggest

00:22:39.260 dog in the female prison yard.

00:22:40.480 Susan Wojcicki is the head of YouTube. If they did deny you from moving into the women's prison, 1.00

00:22:45.700 you would be the very first in California to be denied. They've all been approved.

00:22:49.980 And these women are now living in these, you know, nine by nine cells with with people. 1.00

00:22:55.100 I don't know, however you want to say it, who have penises. And according to at least one of

00:22:59.220 these activists or one of these inmates who's gone on the record, the summer HIV positive and sex is

00:23:05.000 happening. I haven't heard or see. I haven't seen her use the word rape, but we'll continue to follow.

00:23:09.660 And that's been a concern expressed even by lawmakers when they were pushing this in California.

00:23:13.820 We have so much more to go over with Steven Crowder, his health scare, parenthood. Superman now

00:23:19.340 doesn't believe in the American way and is also bisexual. So much to get to. Stay tuned. 1.00

00:23:31.020 Steven Crowder is with us now, host of Louder with Crowder. If you have not heard of it,

00:23:35.800 you are missing out. He's hilarious. He's brilliant. He's controversial. But we need people who will take

00:23:42.380 rhetorical risks in our society. Otherwise, these woke warriors are going to dominate the entire

00:23:47.520 conversation and important facts are going to get covered up. This is just a couple of these are a

00:23:52.600 couple of examples. You posted these on your website. Just so people know, we went back and

00:23:57.740 we checked them all to see. Are they true? Did it really happen? And you got it. You they are true.

00:24:04.020 They did happen. These are instances of assault or rape or exposure by trans individuals against girls,

00:24:11.600 sometimes little girls in restrooms, in jails, women and so on. Again, doesn't mean they all do 1.00

00:24:17.140 it. Just means you should be able to talk about the potential risk. That's it. That's all you were

00:24:20.780 trying to do. There's a couple of examples. Transgender prisoner Karen White carried out 0.99

00:24:25.280 four sex attacks at a women's prison confirmed by the BBC. Madeline Harkes convicted of molesting

00:24:31.380 three girls under eight before he transitioned and then sexually assaulted two female inmates

00:24:35.420 in jail. Vancouver Sun confirmed by additional CNBC reporting or CBC. In 2012, Canadian Christopher

00:24:43.580 Hamburg assaulted two women in two women's homeless shelters in Toronto confirmed by The Economist.

00:24:48.360 2020 female Illinois inmate claimed she was raped by a transgender inmate and the jail covered it up

00:24:53.800 confirmed by the local PBS Chicago story and on and on it goes. There is no question it has happened.

00:25:00.340 There's no question women in California have expressed concerns that it may happen again

00:25:04.060 there as a result of this guy Wiener's policy, which got pushed through. And the fact that YouTube

00:25:09.520 is looking at you because you made it into a parody with Alex Jones to cover this issue in a way that

00:25:16.600 you always do. You're a comedian. You make people laugh, cry, feel something and get a conversation

00:25:21.640 going is insane. Your thoughts, Stephen, especially when we see what's happening with Dave Chappelle trying

00:25:27.220 to talk about trans issues on the national level, too. Oh, well, for crying out loud, with Dave Chappelle,

00:25:31.080 they just absolutely proved his point. I think, you know, some people say it's not cancel culture,

00:25:35.280 it's accountability culture. That's total bullcrap. Because if you look at Dave Chappelle,

00:25:39.240 you see the difference between the critic scores and the audience scores. For example, between Fauci,

00:25:43.360 the critic scores and the audience scores. What cancel culture is, is a small group of people

00:25:48.240 in an echo chamber using that echo chamber to amplify it and to subvert the voice of the actual

00:25:54.180 people want to be able to watch Dave Chappelle. That's a majority of Americans either want to be able to

00:25:58.000 watch the special or believe that other people should be able to watch the special. It's a bunch

00:26:02.220 of people who want to stage a walkout who work at Netflix who believe that him making jokes is

00:26:07.620 actually something that one could equate to violence. So let's be clear, cancel culture is a 0.55

00:26:12.880 real thing. And it's not even the same as a boycott or a boycott, because it's not society at large.

00:26:17.980 It's people who are entirely disconnected from society at large. And I appreciate you, by the way,

00:26:22.280 going through those through those references, because, yeah, look, I'm a comedian first. I mean,

00:26:26.360 anyone who's watching this right now, seeing you and I in a split screen can tell, right,

00:26:30.520 if this were just a freeze and like comedian. Yeah, because one is Megyn Kelly, like looking

00:26:34.140 into the sun and one after several hours of work still looks like I just came in from an

00:26:38.840 all male version of curves. OK, so I have to actually be somewhat not that you're not entertaining,

00:26:45.160 but this is what I've done. I was performing to drunks, you know, in clubs for years. I worked at look,

00:26:50.260 I worked at Fox News. Everything that I do today, I was told would never work. I was told we know that

00:26:55.980 the brass there at Fox News, they said, ah, comedy like that doesn't really work. Ah,

00:26:59.760 it's too edgy. The idea of change my mind, which is no edits as long as it takes hours to actually

00:27:06.020 discuss these issues. You know, Megyn, come on. And then the realm of cable news, that's antithetical.

00:27:11.440 The Sanjay Gupta just said, I spoke with Joe Rogan for three hours, which was the longest conversation

00:27:17.120 I think I've ever had with anybody. If that's the longest conversation you've ever had with anybody,

00:27:21.140 you've lived an asshole's life. It means that you have no idea how to interact with people on a human

00:27:26.700 level. Part of that is comedy. Part of that is levity. Part of that is actually finding a way

00:27:33.380 to make a point without drawing blood. And that's what what humor does. And I think a big part of it

00:27:38.480 is YouTube is just going after the numbers. They're saying more of you have chosen to watch this and

00:27:43.400 Colbert, Myers, even any news program in the demographic. So we can't allow that to happen.

00:27:49.260 But what's really concerning way more. Yeah. And it's it's and I don't really I'm not comfortable

00:27:53.960 talking about that because I have people come up and like this when I was getting through

00:27:57.500 insert whatever to hear like, how you helped me get through cancer. I'm like, I would probably

00:28:02.000 just like let the cancer win if I were you. So good. Thank you. I'm appreciative. I guess

00:28:06.320 you're braver than me. Me telling a few jokes and selling mugs got you through the toughest

00:28:11.020 point in your life. I'm intensely uncomfortable with the responsibility. And so I try and do as much

00:28:16.860 good as possible. Well, I've seen that. You take it seriously. I've seen the research that you do

00:28:21.280 behind your segments. And often, like if I'm going to have you on, I'll go. I'll look at it. I'll see

00:28:24.640 the controversial stuff and I'll say, all right, let's take an objective look. And, you know, if I

00:28:28.940 didn't think you had it, I'd call you out. But you got your stuff here and they're sticking their

00:28:33.960 head in the sand. Megan, go through all of them. Go through all of them. I challenge you.

00:28:37.660 No, no. I mean, go through everyone we've ever done. I have a policy here. OK,

00:28:41.140 we actually have to use completely neutral sources, things like PubMed or scientific journals.

00:28:46.740 Or if we can't find it, we use a left-leaning source. As a matter of fact, when we use the

00:28:52.020 Daily Wire for this story, it was the first time we used a right-leaning source in weeks. And that's

00:28:57.000 because they did the exclusive investigative journalism. Now, it doesn't mean that something

00:29:00.500 wouldn't be legitimate, for example, if it came from Fox News or if it came from the Washington

00:29:04.540 County story. And the Daily Wire is reporting on the Loudoun County issue has been 100% confirmed,

00:29:09.080 100% confirmed, including by the superintendent. And one of the board members just resigned today.

00:29:14.900 She was on the wrong side of history. And she resigned so that she could be replaced by her 0.97

00:29:19.780 fellow board instead of by the people who deserve to elect the next person in her seat. This Loudoun

00:29:25.640 County board has not served its constituency well. But wait, I want to just take a jump back because

00:29:30.320 YouTube also cracked down on you. This is one of the things I saw. Remember, Micaiah Bryant was the

00:29:37.020 young woman who was killed. She was a black woman who was about to stab another black woman and a 0.99

00:29:45.000 police officer showed up on the scene and he shot her and she died. She was only 16 years old. It was

00:29:52.160 tough to tell how old they were in the midst of this knife fight, but it was crazy because the left

00:29:56.740 started to defend her and attack the cop as though knife fighting is just a playful way of expressing

00:30:02.620 oneself and the cop should have known that. Okay, so you had some fun at this. You mocked it a bit

00:30:08.700 and sort of said, this is ridiculous. And a lot of people did, the media outrage and so on. But then

00:30:14.140 as I'm studying up on this, they had no problem. They say you can't because you got a strike and

00:30:20.640 you're not allowed to mock somebody's death, they said. You're not allowed to mock it. And I think it

00:30:24.900 was you or somebody close to you said, if that were true, the Bill Maher riff on David Koch dying,

00:30:31.820 who he celebrated David Koch's death as if it was, you know, like the greatest thing to ever happen to

00:30:37.120 the country that still lives on YouTube. That's just fine. But you can't mock this.

00:30:43.340 No, and I absolutely should be able to mock it because this is someone who actually tried to

00:30:47.080 actively stab somebody else was in. Look, if you look at that freeze frame, it's a freeze frame like

00:30:52.880 this. And I think what I said was something along the lines of some people call this a travesty of

00:30:57.480 the justice system. Some people show this, talk about this as though it displays the social inequities

00:31:01.520 for all to see. And when I look at this freeze frame of a serial, serially violent young lady 0.99

00:31:07.980 about to stab another 16 year old, I say, Tex, that's a mighty fine shooting, because I can't

00:31:13.640 believe the split second shot that had taken place. Of course, no one wants anyone to die. But you know

00:31:18.020 what? When someone's about to stab somebody, I prefer the stabber to die than the innocent

00:31:22.780 stabby. Again, I'm old fashioned. Yeah, this was after two. This was this was, of course,

00:31:28.280 when it was heated, where all cops were animals. And I've agreed that you have some cops who

00:31:32.560 abuse their authority. Absolutely. I understand it. However, this was a scenario where the cop

00:31:38.780 made the absolutely right call. And it's entirely subjective with YouTube. That's the issue that

00:31:43.880 we're dealing with. And I have to be careful to not get somebody else in trouble. I mean, when

00:31:48.040 we had the Vox Adpocalypse, the worst thing, the worst words that I said were sprite, which is an

00:31:53.620 old 50 year old term for someone who's light in the loafers, sashay, meaning dance or prance around.

00:31:59.040 And I use the word Mexican, which YouTube describes as a pejorative about someone who was Mexican. And I

00:32:04.800 didn't say, I hate Mexicans. I said, this person who's Mexican. So I said, well, hold on a second. 0.99

00:32:09.960 If you can't say Mexican about somebody who's Mexican, what would you say?

00:32:13.940 How is that pejorative, right? That's YouTube's bias.

00:32:16.340 Well, it's because I was saying it. I don't know. I mean, I got a face with a lot of punch

00:32:20.140 appeal. And you know what? Can we bring back the stocks a little bit for some of those board

00:32:23.320 members in Loudoun County? I'm not saying violence, but can someone pelt their sorry fat asses with

00:32:27.980 a few tomatoes? Seems like that'd be a little bit of justice for child rape. Maybe it's just me.

00:32:33.200 Could be just me.

00:32:33.700 Well, it's funny. You say that. You can't now because the FBI will be all over you as a hate crime. But

00:32:38.020 what's crazy about it is that letter by the School Board Association, some made up organization that a lot

00:32:43.340 of people hadn't heard of. But now some board of school boards are withdrawing from this thing. 0.83

00:32:47.380 They didn't realize they'd signed up for this group that was going to become activists and ask

00:32:50.500 for parents to be treated like domestic terrorists. They used that incident of that guy, the dad,

00:32:56.040 Scott Smith, as one of the examples of why the FBI needs to go to school board meetings and crack

00:33:00.480 down on parents. Meanwhile, it's coming out that the prosecutor in that jurisdiction went after him

00:33:06.020 personally. I mean, forgive the expression. You know, you won't care. Balls to the wall against this guy.

00:33:11.100 She didn't normally prosecute cases of this, but she got involved. She really wanted to make an

00:33:16.120 example out of this guy. And and people were shocked that she she pushed it so much because 0.66

00:33:22.340 she she was all for lenient law enforcement. Right. Until it comes to this dad, this white dad who shows

00:33:27.540 up at the school board meeting and she made an example out of him. But nobody made an example out

00:33:32.560 of the actual alleged rapist who was then passed to another school and committed a second

00:33:37.480 alleged rape, a second sex crime. That's what so this is. This is how, unfortunately,

00:33:41.980 vigilantism is is created. People don't remember. It was that crime wave, the late 60s, early 70s.

00:33:46.880 That's when you had people like Dirty Harry. That's when you had people like Charles Bronson,

00:33:50.460 right? Death Wish become popular because people thought, well, one second, I've gone through all

00:33:53.820 the avenues and nothing was done. Two things there that I wanted to go through. The first is I've never

00:34:00.260 fully understood the expression balls to the wall. Is that supposed to be the G force that you're

00:34:06.720 going so fast that it would press your balls back, in which case would be really balls to the seat?

00:34:11.280 Or is it supposed to be that you're running so fast that you run face first into the wall

00:34:15.060 and the rebound reaction is you're does anyone actually know about balls?

00:34:18.820 If you're really going after something hard, like you'd full steam ahead, the balls would be like

00:34:24.160 going. I understand the analogy, but I don't understand where where balls would ever reach

00:34:28.240 the point of making physical contact with the wall. The wall is the body. It's the body.

00:34:33.360 It's like the pelvic region. It's the pelvic region. Because I was going to say,

00:34:36.920 it seems like if your balls touch a wall, that would be by design. You know, it'd be something

00:34:41.700 you were looking to accomplish. Like I have to move things out of the way. And the other point that

00:34:46.360 I was going to make here is I don't remember exactly what it was. It was something about this.

00:34:52.760 Look, oh, this is what I was going to ask you. Okay. Megan Kelly, lovely, wonderful Megan Kelly.

00:34:58.240 Uh, someone rapes your daughter. Okay. Someone rapes one of your children at school 1.00

00:35:02.720 and you've brought it to the proper authorities. Okay. And they've done nothing. And the school

00:35:08.160 board tells you they don't believe you. And they call your daughter a bitch. You think you do

00:35:13.400 little more than disrupt a town meeting? Right. And we're imagine. Honestly, I am. If I were a judge

00:35:21.100 and this went way further from this man, I would say, Hey, don't do it again. If we're not at the,

00:35:27.160 if we're at the point in this society where there's a, he said, she said, or, or she said,

00:35:31.820 your guess is as good as mindset in this scenario, uh, over rape of a child that's confirmed through

00:35:38.000 a rape kit. And we're talking about which language may be offensive and what's permissible and what may

00:35:42.840 lead to a broad generalization. Whereas someone should be going, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Z's raping 0.86

00:35:47.100 another one. Yeah. This principal, I mean, the superintendent needs to go. He lied to the

00:35:54.600 parents about the danger posed in their schools. He moved the boy to another school without

00:35:59.560 disclosing to the new school community that he posed a threat. And a second rape was committed

00:36:04.540 according to the authorities, how this guy keeps his job. I have no idea. I realized Virginia has gone

00:36:10.440 blue. It's, it's more liberal than it's ever been, including when it comes to more lenient crimes,

00:36:15.780 uh, crime and law enforcement. But this is, this is too crazy for Democrat or Republican. This guy's

00:36:21.800 got to go. Um, all right, let's shift gears and talk a little bit about something less controversial,

00:36:27.180 which is Pete Buttigieg and his paternity leave. Um, and he's getting mocked. He's getting mocked for

00:36:34.760 taking paternity leave. That's at all. Okay. But you disclosed online that you give your employees,

00:36:41.320 you give your, your male employees two weeks paternity leave. So what's wrong with paternity? Let's, 0.71

00:36:45.000 let's start there. Cause it's also that he didn't tell anybody it was secret. He did it for two

00:36:48.460 months and he didn't appoint a backup when we're in the midst of this shipping and supply problem.

00:36:52.740 But let's just start with the notion of paternity leave and why you don't like it.

00:36:56.360 Well, first off, it's a problem because I assume that in Pete Buttigieg, uh, uh, scenario,

00:37:01.340 they're both taking paternity leave. Yes. So it's a little, it's a little bit different,

00:37:05.940 right? We're just twins. You have twins. It's double the trouble. You know, it's hard.

00:37:09.220 Oh, for crying out loud. People just, you know what, honestly, in having twins, I, I, I feel less

00:37:13.440 sympathy for people who have won and we're like, how do they complain about it being hard? The

00:37:16.420 hardest thing is the timing. No, I think paternity leave is silly as far as it being government 0.88

00:37:20.740 mandated in countries that are socialist countries. The truth is I've learned that I'm very, very

00:37:24.720 useless. I can feed, I can change, I can hold the babies, but they need their mother. And that's

00:37:28.900 also why I acknowledge as a complimentarianist and I acknowledge the gender role differences.

00:37:33.620 And I don't mean women can't vote or oppress them. I mean that women are better moms. Just, 0.97

00:37:38.980 even if I put up some fake rubber apparatus for chest feeding, I'm not going to be as good of a

00:37:44.480 mom as mom is. Uh, I provide two weeks because I want, uh, our employees and we are a small company

00:37:50.580 to be able to spend time with their wife and to bond with them. But there's a difference between that

00:37:55.620 and the secretary of transportation who just, first off, shows you how useless he is that no one

00:38:02.080 noticed. Like no one is going like, where is he? Like, I don't know. He's chest feeding some child

00:38:08.200 with fake rubber tits, I guess. Stop it. That was a joke by Tucker. He was not, he doesn't,

00:38:13.960 he said Tucker doesn't understand bottle feeding. Well, you don't know what the problem is. No,

00:38:16.700 no, no, no, no, no, no. I reject your premise. Let me explain to you why I reject your premise.

00:38:20.180 Cause then Pete, Pete Buttigieg goes, uh, well, it seems to me that Tucker doesn't understand the

00:38:24.320 concept of bottle feeding. Oh, do you mean he might be confused because you have been pushing the

00:38:29.480 concept of chest feeding because men can breastfeed too and chest feeding persons. In other words,

00:38:35.860 you don't get to create the premise and then act like someone's absurd for accepting it.

00:38:39.620 Good for Pete Buttigieg that he doesn't do the chest feeding. But I saw people on the cover of,

00:38:44.120 I don't know, it was Vogue or People magazine. And you know, it's one stop short of Buffalo Bill.

00:38:48.260 At a certain point when you're saying, I don't want to, I don't want a mom to be breastfeeding this 1.00

00:38:52.800 child, but I'm going to put on a fake apparatus and convince the world that I can chest feed too.

00:38:58.300 It puts the lotion on it. I mean, it's getting really, really weird.

00:39:01.440 Oh, that Buffalo Bill, a silence of the lambs. Okay. Now I got you. Yes.

00:39:04.360 Put the chest milk in the basket.

00:39:08.360 I challenge this. I don't think that the men, cause there are men, there are biological men

00:39:12.500 who say they're trans women who are trying to chest feed their babies. Okay. So there's like, 0.88

00:39:17.980 there's biological women who are trans men who actually can breastfeed a child because they're 1.00

00:39:24.400 biological, but there are men. We did a story about this. What's her name? Courtney Cox did this

00:39:30.100 whole special on this couple where you got a biological man and a biological woman who are 0.72

00:39:34.580 each living the opposite sex. And the one who is a biological male is trying to quote chest feed or 1.00

00:39:41.100 breastfeed the baby. And you'll be shocked to learn nothing came out because it's a biological man.

00:39:46.260 And the one who gave birth to the baby, who is a biological woman, but living as a man

00:39:50.480 is not breastfeeding the baby. I'm like, I know the solution to your problem. I got you. 0.99

00:39:56.160 It's one hell of an ad. It's one hell of a commercial for Similac.

00:40:00.260 Yes. Well, yeah. What other choice is there? Wait, there is a biological breast. 1.00

00:40:03.880 No one noticed. To go back to Buttigieg, no one noticed he was gone. And it's like,

00:40:08.180 don't we, don't we have shipping containers that are basically in a, in a never ending holding

00:40:13.240 pattern right now? He's, he's the secretary of transportation. He's doing nothing. And no one

00:40:19.040 noticed until he took up the only part of his job that he actively completes, which is appearing on

00:40:24.380 Sunday shows. I mean, just, you just realize how useless, I don't understand how anyone can look

00:40:29.640 at this right now. Look at this administration, look at government in general and say, yeah,

00:40:34.160 yeah, I want those people to run my lives. 0.54

00:40:36.720 Well, what has he done before that qualifies him for this role? I mean, he was out there this

00:40:40.540 weekend saying that this is a smashing success, all the delay in the supply chain. It just shows how

00:40:45.960 great Biden's economy is going because people have money and they want to buy goods and they're

00:40:50.020 trying to get access to those goods. And they're just so mad that, you know, they can't get access.

00:40:53.540 That reflects well. And it shows you the, the smashing success of the Biden policies.

00:40:58.860 Well, he's so out of touch that if you tell him, Oh really? How about the fact that 19%

00:41:03.340 beef when the cost of beef went up 19%, you think, you think that you're talking about a nightclub

00:41:08.320 cover charge? My point is he's useless and it's not because he's gay for before YouTube says it's 0.52

00:41:16.880 because look at what he did in Indiana and how long it took to fix potholes. This guy, this,

00:41:21.720 this guy has not been good at his job. And you know that I'm correct because he stopped doing it

00:41:26.940 for two months under the guise of paternity leave and nobody noticed. Yeah. Case closed.

00:41:31.400 I will say for the record, I'm okay with some paternity leave. I, I object to, you know, 1.00

00:41:36.860 and I realize it's two dads in that situation and two, two babies too. So, well, maybe I'll

00:41:41.840 remove that situation, but I will say, you know, men who want to take three months, three months off

00:41:45.940 along with their wives. I think that's bullshit. Like what do you, the three months are for the 0.99

00:41:49.800 woman to physically recover and to breastfeed a new baby and take care of the brand new baby 1.00

00:41:54.160 and bond with the baby because the baby was in the mother for nine months. And it takes some time.

00:41:58.740 It takes weeks and weeks and weeks to recover from, from a C-section, nevermind a vaginal birth. 0.99

00:42:02.700 So like, let's not pretend that men are in exactly the same position that women are in

00:42:06.680 after a baby is born. Now, again, a gay couple is a different situation. I get it. But like when 1.00

00:42:12.180 you're talking about man and a woman to treat the man's paternity leave, like it should be equally 0.97

00:42:15.880 long to the women's, the woman's maternity leave, I think is a lot of nonsense. You are disgusting. 1.00

00:42:20.020 There are penile births as well, Megan.

00:42:24.900 Steven's got a lot of thoughts on everything and we are going to crack it all open

00:42:27.800 right after this.

00:42:35.060 Superman apparently needed a makeover, Steven. They, according to DC Comics, they are getting

00:42:41.240 rid of, you know, his motto is truth, justice in the American way. It used to be faster than

00:42:45.220 a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive. He fights a never ending battle for truth,

00:42:49.100 justice in the American way. And now no more. It's a better tomorrow, a better tomorrow,

00:42:55.560 not the American way. This, as they announced last week, that the new Superman is going to be

00:43:01.560 bisexual after he falls for Jay Nakamura, a male reporter. And there's a promo of the two of them 0.83

00:43:08.580 you can see in the sort of anime, kissing. That's Superman kissing Jay Nakamura, a reporter.

00:43:14.320 So he's getting a makeover, a woke-ified makeover. What do you make of it?

00:43:18.960 Yeah. Well, it's the wrong time for him to become bisexual. There are no more phone booths. 1.00

00:43:23.480 I think it's a couple of things.

00:43:26.240 What? I don't get it.

00:43:28.220 The gay men often have sex in public, so implying phone booths. 1.00

00:43:31.580 But I wanted to go back to the balls to the wall thing. I found something out.

00:43:35.140 Did you know it actually has nothing to do with balls? It's the throttle on a plane going to

00:43:39.960 the wall, which has a ball on it. So you just have a filthy mind, Megan. And then I had another

00:43:43.900 idea. The gen you sell, your commercial, genuinely interested me. But I realized, you know, they don't

00:43:48.240 want a catcher's mitt. They don't want like a 65-year-old Ryan O'Neill lookalike. But here's

00:43:52.720 the catch. We do before and after. And after, I transition into Meg and Kelly.

00:43:57.760 I like it. Listen, I'm telling you, we're going to sell gen you sell like nobody's business if it

00:44:02.360 would start working on your ass. 0.98

00:44:02.960 Nobody's just like, this is what it can do. And he also went from 6'3 to 5'5", or however.

00:44:07.720 I need to put it, if I can put it on my bottom and it can do to my bottom what it does to the

00:44:11.860 under-eyes, they're going to be gazillionaires.

00:44:14.480 Well, that's great because my common nickname is ass face. So hopefully it works. 0.98

00:44:19.080 Go through it together.

00:44:20.840 Yes, yes. Look, I don't really, here's the issue. I don't really care, but there are plenty of gay 1.00

00:44:28.480 superheroes out there. It's not like this is a new thing. There are gay superheroes. There are lesbian

00:44:31.860 superheroes. There are black superheroes. Just like when people are saying, should James Bond be black?

00:44:35.440 I don't really care. The issue is, there are plenty, there's not a lack of black action heroes.

00:44:40.840 Think about it. The number one bankable star for a decade, Will Smith. You have people like Denzel

00:44:45.900 Washington. In other words, they're actually pretty well represented. The problem is when

00:44:49.060 you create divisiveness where there doesn't need to be, when you say James Bond now needs to be a

00:44:54.660 black guy, when you say Superman now needs to be bisexual, able to please men in a single stroke. 0.96

00:45:01.440 This whole deal is a problem because people go, well, you had your gay superhero. It didn't sell that well

00:45:07.140 because it turned out that the LGBTQ AIIP is, and that's not a joke acronym, wasn't enough of a market

00:45:13.980 to buy your comic book. So don't ruin it for the rest of us who grew up with Superman. I think it's fair to

00:45:19.360 just start new heroes, to just start new franchises. They just don't typically do all that well. And so they have

00:45:25.220 to boycott and go after old ones. That's all. The issue here is when people say cancel culture,

00:45:29.700 accountability culture, or, oh, you know what? It's time. They're not letting the market win out.

00:45:34.680 They're trying to force a market on people that has failed time and time again. That's it. And I mean,

00:45:41.220 you know, Superman, I don't really care. Superman is one of the dumbest superheroes that's ever

00:45:44.880 existed. The guy is completely, he's completely flawless. There's nothing that can hurt him unless you

00:45:50.140 have kryptonite. And it just so happens that every single person and their dog, like, oh,

00:45:55.340 I feel ill. Have you seen Spike's new kryptonite collar? Do you like these mutt dangly kryptonite 1.00

00:46:00.140 earrings? You're like, well, now he's just a guy. I'm sorry, but I love Superman. I loved the show

00:46:05.300 back in the 1970s. And I loved when Christopher Reeve played him. I thought he was like the hottest

00:46:09.620 Superman. I mean, he did wear tights. So like, maybe you could see this coming. I don't know. But I,

00:46:14.860 that was like the one superhero I thought was so dreamy. I was so jealous of Robin.

00:46:18.360 Oh, wait. For crying out loud, Christopher Reeve, that's a good looking man.

00:46:22.860 Right. And so is Henry Cavill. These are good. Look, I can acknowledge it.

00:46:26.780 Amazing. Yes. Gorgeous. Very good looking men. Yeah.

00:46:30.120 So let everybody have a shot even if I crossed over.

00:46:32.560 And eat it too. I see your point. Listen, this is how I get in trouble years ago over the black Santa 1.00

00:46:36.680 is that there, everybody was, this black woman wrote an article about how the commercial image of 0.98

00:46:41.340 Santa is a white guy. She didn't like it. She wanted it to be a purple penguin. And I went in the air and I

00:46:45.820 was like, well, why? That doesn't make any sense. The shit storm that rained down on me on that one

00:46:50.320 was second to almost none. Okay. Steven Crowder is here. He's got thoughts on everything. Up next,

00:46:55.900 we're going to talk about Biden, Kamala Harris appearing to break, get some churches in trouble

00:47:00.400 who are possibly breaking the law, COVID and much, much more. Don't go away.

00:47:05.180 So let's start with Joe Biden and Jill Biden, maskless, maskless Steven Crowder at a dinner date

00:47:18.180 in D.C. at some Italian restaurant. They're flouting the indoor mask mandate. You know how

00:47:23.820 we all have to put the pain in the ass mask on for our walk in and our walk out on the way to our 0.82

00:47:28.600 table because we're all pretending that does something. Well, apparently they don't they feel

00:47:32.560 no need to pretend, even though they've spent months touting the power and importance of masks

00:47:38.300 and slowing the spread and encouraging us all to do our part. And my kids got to sit there all day

00:47:43.220 and yours will soon, too, as soon as they hit two all day long in masks. And they're not allowed to

00:47:48.680 flout the mandates the way the president and his wife are. Your thoughts on it, because it's not the

00:47:53.680 first time he or other officials have been caught. Well, I hate to say this, but I do think that

00:47:58.220 conservative media and liberal media do a disservice here where they focus on hypocrisy. They go,

00:48:02.360 look how hypocritical. Look, everyone's a hypocrite. Megan, you're a hypocrite. I'm

00:48:05.440 certainly a hypocrite, particularly all Christians are hypocrites. If you actually have any standard 1.00

00:48:10.040 by which to measure yourself, you're going to be a hypocrite. The issue here is not hypocrisy.

00:48:13.760 The issue with Nancy Pelosi getting her hair done in the middle of a lockdown is not hypocrisy.

00:48:18.180 The issue with Governor Whitmer flying to Florida when she was trying to ban people from

00:48:21.480 flying to Florida, going up north to her to her lake house and also being in a crowded bar having

00:48:26.740 pizza. I don't know if it was a pizza shop or bar, but eating pizza at the bar is not hypocrisy.

00:48:30.660 It's that they aren't afraid of it in the way they demand you and I be. It's not that

00:48:36.900 they're being hypocritical. That's true. What does that tell you about former Vice President Joe Biden

00:48:42.860 and his wife? They're not afraid of it. They tell you, you better wear a mask because there's the

00:48:47.160 Delta variant going around and everyone's going to die. Do what you can't. And then they don't wear

00:48:51.640 it. Sure, they're hypocrites. They're not afraid of it. They have access to the same info you do.

00:48:56.260 And they go, all right, when the cameras aren't on, we don't have to do this because everyone

00:49:00.700 out there knows. And if this is on YouTube, we have to be very, very careful. Okay. Let me be

00:49:04.380 very, very clear. One of my co-hosts here, his wife is a nurse. We were here amidst the PPE

00:49:10.920 shortage, right? We watched her struggle with that. However, when you wear a mask in a hospital,

00:49:15.540 there's a very detailed process. After you sanitize your hands, you place the mask on with gloves.

00:49:23.060 And when you are done, you peel the mask off and put it into a receptacle before taking off your

00:49:29.340 gloves and washing your hands. Okay. So when people say masks work, there are studies of

00:49:33.720 masks working in that environment, not your old panties that you fashioned into a neck gait or

00:49:39.300 stuffed in your glove compartment for two weeks. You won't find that paper on PubMed. I challenge you.

00:49:45.260 Who is wearing their old panties? 1.00

00:49:46.960 Um, yes. I'm wearing her old panties and she doesn't need to be identified.

00:49:52.880 Just leave it at that. Uh, no, you're a hundred percent right. I have to tell you this past weekend,

00:49:56.780 I had a little girl's weekend. I went to Chicago with two of my besties. It was great. And one of

00:50:01.520 them is a very well-respected anesthesiologist and pain doctor. And she was talking about what the N95 0.98

00:50:06.480 really is in the hospital. It's like, it's suffocating, you know, it's, it's smushed to your face and

00:50:13.180 it's very well layered and it looks nothing like the, the lame little cloth masks that we

00:50:18.340 are pretending are doing anything whatsoever. So yeah, you're right. They, it really just sort

00:50:23.200 of puts the lie to what they've been saying all along. They don't believe it and we don't believe

00:50:26.980 it either. But unfortunately I, the thing that really bothers me is my kids. My kids have to

00:50:31.340 live by it and, and there's no end in sight. Speaking of COVID, Dr. Fauci comes out. He gives

00:50:37.520 an interview to Chris Wallace on Fox news Sunday. And that continues a line that we heard from him

00:50:45.060 in the, in the Fauci documentary that's out there right now, which is like his pro science message.

00:50:49.820 He's he's science. He science itself. And people don't like him are just anti-science because he's

00:50:54.460 full of science truths. Here was more of that with Chris Wallace, uh, yesterday.

00:51:00.740 Why do you think you've become so controversial? And honestly, do you think there's anything you

00:51:06.720 have done that has contributed to that? Well, I'm not so sure I could answer the latter because

00:51:13.460 I can't think of anything, but I'm sure some people will, but you know, Chris, I have stood for

00:51:19.160 always making science data and evidence be what we guide ourselves by. And I think people who feel

00:51:26.520 differently, who have conspiracy theories, who deny reality, that's looking them straight in the eye.

00:51:33.220 Those are people that don't particularly care for me. And that's understandable because what I do

00:51:39.020 when I try very hard is to be guided by the truth. Wow. Thoughts on that? Um, I just find it funny

00:51:46.800 that he can't even imagine some reason that people may not like him beyond the fact that he's

00:51:51.260 systematically, uh, you know, stripped people of their basic constitutional rights and freedoms here

00:51:56.000 in the country, despite the fact that he's an unelected official who actually receives arguably

00:52:01.080 the highest salary in government. But really, if for no other reason, how about the fact that for

00:52:06.360 those who haven't watched the Fauci documentary, you had the photograph of you throwing like a girl

00:52:12.700 on the pitcher's mound framed, and you went to Topps, the card company to have it framed as a fake

00:52:20.420 baseball card on your desk. The ego on this guy, that pitch was the most embarrassing pitch

00:52:26.960 of any of any government official in the history of the United States. And he said, that'll look good

00:52:33.040 on the end of my desk. I want to frame it. Could we go to Topps, maybe to Marvel, have them make a

00:52:38.600 picture book out of it, a graphic novel. This guy is so unbelievably out of touch and he's been wrong.

00:52:45.840 Let's be clear about everything. I'm not just talking about the masks because he's weaseled out of that

00:52:50.640 one saying, well, I had to lie because we didn't have the PPE needed. All right, fine. So you lied.

00:52:56.000 Does anyone remember the AIDS epidemic? Do people know that Dallas Buyers Club happened because of 0.84

00:53:02.060 Fauci? Do people know that that mantra, right to try, happened because of Fauci? Do people know that

00:53:07.180 Fauci said there is nothing intrinsic to the homosexual lifestyle that could lead to AIDS or

00:53:16.020 would be the reason for AIDS and then had to reach out to the gay community? And he was betting on AZT, 0.78

00:53:21.600 which, by the way, did not have the track record that he anticipated, while gay Americans were 1.00

00:53:25.840 looking for the right to try other medication. Also, Fauci said that children could get HIV or AIDS

00:53:31.640 if they were living in a house with parents who had it, like you could get it from the Cinnamon Toast

00:53:35.840 Crunch. Everything this man has said is wrong. He's unelected and he's highly paid. That's why people

00:53:43.320 don't like you, Dr. Fauci. I hope I've put a finer point on it. You conspiratorial man, you.

00:53:50.560 That's got to be the reason. He said you could get AIDS from the cereal box.

00:53:53.940 Wait, is that true? I never, that I did not hear. And Cinnamon Toast Crunch is innocent in all of this.

00:53:58.820 Let's just state that for the record. Okay, that's fair. It was Cap'n Crunch.

00:54:01.080 It's amazing. It's our favorite. Okay, moving on to other officials in the news today. Kamala Harris

00:54:09.500 releasing a statement now to 300 black churches in Virginia for Terry McAuliffe, who's in this

00:54:15.080 Virginia gubernatorial race that's right down to the wire. I mean, the polls are still showing him

00:54:19.520 three points up, but that's within the margin of error. And it could definitely go to the Republican,

00:54:24.420 which would be the first time, I think, since 2006, something like that, that we had a Republican

00:54:28.040 hold the governor's office in Virginia. People are looking at this as a bellwether of what's to

00:54:32.840 come because they're fighting over all the things that we see in the national news, from

00:54:36.140 COVID policies to CRT and the school board and so on. Loudoun counties in Virginia, in that case,

00:54:41.480 we just discussed. So Kamala Harris releases this statement. I don't think we did cut it, right?

00:54:49.060 Oh, we did. We did cut a little video of her. Now, keep in mind, as you listen to this,

00:54:52.460 the rule is for churches that are tax exempt, that in order to be tax exempt, you are at,

00:54:58.980 and I'm quoting now from the IRS tax guide, absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly

00:55:03.460 participating in or intervening in any political campaign on behalf of any candidate for elective

00:55:10.740 public office. Listen to Kamala. 1.00

00:55:13.520 This year, I know that you will send Terry McAuliffe back to Richmond. So early voting has already

00:55:21.200 started. And this is the first year that you can vote on Sunday. So please vote after today's

00:55:28.300 service. And she had gone on to say, um, this is, these are all the great things that Terry McAuliffe

00:55:34.160 has done. Virginia needs him. He's the leader they need. Here's his track record. He did X, Y,

00:55:38.880 and Z. I'm, she violated the law. I mean, this church violated the law and its tax exempt status.

00:55:44.820 These 300 of them, I should say, uh, should be questioned at this point.

00:55:48.320 Yeah. Well, one thing I'm surprised that McAuliffe didn't say when Kamala said, I'm going to come

00:55:52.620 out and give you an endorsement. Just say, no, I'm good. I mean, she's the least popular human 0.98

00:55:57.620 being, I believe in office ever. Uh, you look in California, she wasn't popular. You look in the

00:56:02.660 primaries, she wasn't popular. She's not popular as VP. I don't think an endorsement from her goes a 0.97

00:56:06.640 long way, but I will tell you this, this is, this is true. I remember when, um, I think we were at

00:56:11.020 midterms and I was in a very large church in Texas and they were discussing some, uh, abortion laws,

00:56:16.600 I believe that were on the books and they were really afraid. They said, look, we have to be

00:56:19.860 really careful in how we discuss this because we are not in any way endorsing any political party,

00:56:24.420 but as Christians, this is what you believe about life. So they were being really, really careful.

00:56:29.160 And I remember comparing that with, uh, you know, Jeremiah Wright at Barack Obama's church saying

00:56:33.460 that Bill Clinton did the country the way he did Monica. He was riding dirty. I was like,

00:56:38.160 is he air humping the podium? This was basically, uh, do you, you remember this, correct? He was,

00:56:43.360 he was riding dirty. I'm like, that's that man is that pastor is air humping the podium.

00:56:50.080 So this is the lectern. Yes. The lectern. Sorry. Um, yeah, this has been going on for a long time

00:56:56.700 because the left is not, uh, they're, they're not beholden to the same rules. And this isn't just

00:57:00.820 the left. It's about the elites, right? The elites in power, who's going to enforce this? You're

00:57:04.980 really talking about a few agencies of government and 501, 501 C3, C4 status. It'll bore people

00:57:11.060 listening. They know that no one's going to prosecute them like parents at PTA meetings

00:57:15.300 from the FBI. So they don't care. That's exactly right. It's, it's her IRS. It's Biden's

00:57:21.060 before. I think you called him vice, former vice president, Joe Biden, which is funny because

00:57:24.760 he is technically a president now. Um, but so president Biden, vice president, he's also technically

00:57:29.020 a former vice president. Yes, definitely. Uh, you would pass, you would get partial credit at least on a,

00:57:33.300 on a, on an exam. Um, their IRS is not going to go after these 300 black churches for that

00:57:38.500 statement. So she will get away with it in a way that, you know, would have been a national story

00:57:41.740 had Trump tried it. Um, okay. So speaking of double standards, Jussie Smollett is back in the news.

00:57:49.900 Yes, he is because he is actually going to be forced to stand trial. Now people may not remember

00:57:56.620 exactly what happened here. He's of course, the actor who started an empire who pretended that he was

00:58:02.360 the victim of a, of a crime during the, it was like snowmageddon or I can't remember what it was,

00:58:07.960 but it was like, you know, negative 40 in Chicago in this very nice neighborhood where I was again

00:58:12.620 this weekend called streeterville. And he claimed that at 2 AM while he was innocently going to get

00:58:17.220 a subway sandwich, he was the victim of a race crime where two, two guys wearing MAGA hats came over

00:58:22.900 to him and put a rope around his neck and said, you know, something like go Trump. I can't remember,

00:58:28.400 but said bad things. This is MAGA country. I think they said this is MAGA country. Okay. So that was

00:58:33.200 all, that was a lie. He wanted attention. It turns out according to the, uh, former Chicago police

00:58:38.640 superintendent, Eddie Johnson, who by the way is a black man that, uh, he paid $3,500 Jussie did to

00:58:43.860 these two brothers, Allah and Abel Osandario, uh, to stage the attack. And what happened then was the DA

00:58:52.040 there, the Cook County state attorney, Kim Fox, two X's declined to prosecute the guy. She, she dropped,

00:58:59.260 it was a disorderly conduct charge against him, a felony. She dropped it. And, um, a judge,

00:59:06.120 then it turned out she had a conflict and the judge, a judge later took a look at it and assigned a 0.76

00:59:11.060 special prosecutor to the case who in February, 2020 charged Smollett with six new counts of disorderly

00:59:17.460 conduct. He pleaded not guilty. Now he's going to go to trial. Um, and you tell me what that trial's

00:59:25.900 likely to mean to the culture wars now going on. It's all pre George Floyd, pre all of that. So

00:59:32.700 what happens in Cook County as this case goes to trial?

00:59:37.420 Look, I think when you look at the Jesse Smollett case and you look at, uh, Bubba Wallace, just if

00:59:42.060 you're going to, if you're going to perpetrate a fake hate crime, they really need to get better

00:59:47.280 at tying nooses. I mean, they just need to go to scout camp. I mean, you'll look at it and Bubba

00:59:51.140 Wallace like, what is that a garage door opener when they had it on Jesse Smollett? It's like, okay,

00:59:54.380 someone said a pay less a shoelace and tie it around there. Give it a bow. That's good enough. 0.91

00:59:58.800 It's just so not believable that it's comical. But the issue is at that moment in time,

01:00:04.000 I was saying this, I, I know that I don't know if you were, but a plenty of people were saying this

01:00:08.940 before we knew any of the additional information, I said, hold on a second. In a snowstorm,

01:00:14.000 two white guys poured bleach on him, threw a noose around his head and said, this is MAGA country.

01:00:19.160 If I'm a betting man, no, the same thing with Bubba Wallace in the middle of a NASCAR. Uh,

01:00:25.180 I'm going to bet. No poop swastika was a big one. A swastika made out of poop because Nazis in 0.96

01:00:30.880 respecting the symbol for Arianism and the great national socialist regime would of course paint it in

01:00:37.740 a, uh, a campus dorm room shower, uh, in poop. Most of these are fake and they'll continue to be fake.

01:00:44.760 And the issue is as long as there is an incentive, as long as we incentivize victimhood. And I mean

01:00:50.320 that by the way, this is one of the first times that it's backfired is here at Netflix with Dave

01:00:54.800 Chappelle. And that's really only because Dave Chappelle is so powerful and he's, he's arguably

01:00:59.720 the best comedian to have ever lived. Certainly the most prolific as far as a total catalog of material.

01:01:05.720 It's one of the few instances where it's backfired, but as long as you continue to incentivize

01:01:11.200 victimhood and as long as you, uh, immediately create subsets and any type of conflict of who's

01:01:17.780 the most marginalized, you're going to get scenarios where a bisexual boy in a skirt rapes a girl, 0.72

01:01:22.820 gets away with it, rapes another girl. You're going to have, uh, actors with a long history of,

01:01:27.540 of being deceitful and, uh, and dishonest behavior come up with a fake race crime and the media cover it.

01:01:33.540 You're going to have, uh, for example, Tom Cotton talk about, uh, the lab leak theory and they'll

01:01:38.740 accuse him of being racist and they'll, they'll, they'll bury it. As long as you seek and you reward

01:01:43.980 victimhood. And I mean, in both a PR way and a financial way, um, which is really what the left

01:01:50.880 is about, right? It's about this collective, this intersectionality as opposed to the responsibility

01:01:54.800 of the individual. Conservative looks at Smollett and says, Oh, this is tremendously irresponsible

01:02:00.260 and damaging for him as an individual. Of course, it's not indicative of all black people. 0.96

01:02:05.760 Jussie Smollett needs to pay when they were covering the story, they were saying,

01:02:10.200 Jussie Smollett speaks for all black people. And it's an issue here in this country where when people

01:02:16.900 say common ground, there isn't common ground that way. We do need to figure out and decide the

01:02:22.400 direction we want to go. Is it the direction that believed Jussie Smollett that wiped the rape

01:02:26.980 under the rug that said noose bubble Wallace, right? That's accused anyone of discussing the

01:02:32.020 lab leak theory as being racist, or is it the society that looks at individual behavior and,

01:02:38.960 uh, and really, uh, sort of appropriates the ramifications, um, in a way that is, I'm,

01:02:44.600 I'm being redundant appropriately.

01:02:46.220 Mm-hmm. You know, I think the Jussie Smollett jury, um, it, it could go any way,

01:02:51.740 even though it's very obvious the guy made this up. And I, I'll never forget this,

01:02:55.140 this superintendent, um, coming out, Eddie Johnson and just ripping him, just ripping him

01:02:59.720 about how this is an embarrassment and what he's done. And, you know, and, and as a black man,

01:03:04.860 he objected to this other black man trying to, you know, gin up racial hatred and sentiments

01:03:09.380 in a fake crime. Um, but this is all now going to happen post George Floyd. And I do wonder,

01:03:16.120 um, what the jury will feel in looking at Jussie Smollett now, who, I don't know what he's going

01:03:22.520 to save. He's, he's still denying, he's still claiming reportedly that, uh, it happened to him,

01:03:27.240 but you're going to get these two brothers on the stand to say, he paid me 3,500 bucks to pretend,

01:03:30.980 right? So they have, they have the check, they have the bill of sale for crying out loud. This guy

01:03:35.040 could have just going to a gym and finding a white personal trainer, like a blonde haired, 1.00

01:03:39.260 blue eyed, racist looking personal trainer is not hard. He decided to hire half the cast of

01:03:43.860 Amadeus or Amistad. Sorry. I get them confused. One's about a requiem and one's about slaves on

01:03:49.820 a ship. The point is this guy went out and he hired African people. Like just, you know what 0.98

01:03:55.000 that says? That says that there is no fear of accountability or retribution. The digging that

01:03:59.920 you did on my website, my stories, the comedian, but I appreciate you did it. I'm held to a standard

01:04:05.240 that Jussie Smollett knew CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, New York times would never hold him to. He wasn't

01:04:13.100 concerned about reporters doing their due diligence. That's why he hired two guys, two black guys who 0.83

01:04:18.600 are darker than him to throw a Payless shoelace around his neck and throw some water on him,

01:04:24.180 which by the way, one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life is the cop footage. Did you see

01:04:28.860 this? The cop, uh, camera footage, the body cam footage when they're at his apartment and he's walking

01:04:33.340 around with this crappy little noose shoelace and they're like, you can take, you can take the

01:04:37.800 shoelace off. You don't need a key. They were, I thought you guys needed to see it. Like, no,

01:04:41.140 we don't need to see that. And he's just trying to milk it. And it's so cringewilly. It's like

01:04:46.160 an actor not realizing the scene is over now. Uh, we'll see. I'll be fascinated to see how that

01:04:52.640 trial goes. I really will for all those reasons, because, you know, is he going to play I'm the

01:04:56.400 victim? And I, you know, I had no like plead insanity, maybe right. Like our crazy racist society

01:05:01.180 made me do this. Um, we'll have to watch and see it's only disorderly conduct, but it's felony.

01:05:05.520 So, you know, it's, this is real and he could actually be facing, uh, some real penalties at

01:05:09.840 the end of it. Okay. Um, my favorite segment is coming up next. I can tell you it's going to be

01:05:13.720 my favorite because I love getting personal with Steven Crowder, not in a weird, creepy way, but

01:05:17.700 just, you know, in a, in a professional friendship way. Um, and we're going to talk next about his health

01:05:21.600 parenthood. Uh, last time he was here, he was trying to get, uh, he and his wife were trying to get

01:05:25.520 pregnant. Well, it worked. They have twins now. Uh, so how's that going? Okay. So last time you

01:05:34.420 were on, it was almost a year ago. It was right after the election. And you at that point were in

01:05:40.360 a very different space because you and your wife had suffered a miscarriage and you were sad. You

01:05:45.660 were really bummed out about it. And you guys were trying to, you know, you just never know if it's

01:05:49.440 going to happen before it actually does happen. So you get pregnant, you have these beautiful 0.97

01:05:54.160 twins, boy and a girl. And at the same time, your health implodes. I mean, you almost died over the

01:06:03.860 summer. So, so when I talk about that, what's it bringing up for you? Are you still stuck in the

01:06:08.380 ecstasy of the childbirth or the agony of the health issues? Uh, you know, it's funny. I talk

01:06:13.400 about this quite a bit on, on air as, as someone who sort of struggled with, with, uh, you know,

01:06:17.860 depression my whole life. I'm more driven by responsibilities and by commitment and wanting

01:06:21.560 to be good to my word than I am by, I guess, sort of pursuing joy because it's so, um,

01:06:26.740 elusive. That being said, I'm, it's unbelievable. Obviously having children, it does change you.

01:06:30.900 And, and I understand now what people are talking about connecting with their, with their children.

01:06:35.180 Um, but, but as far as the day to day, you know, here's what happened last December. Um,

01:06:40.800 I started getting these and actually started funny enough. We did a parody, a music video of

01:06:44.200 the bravery's honest mistake. And I was wearing a mask and that was the first time I started

01:06:48.360 getting what felt like these heart palpitations, ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom,

01:06:51.300 ba-boom, where we have the role of me like going, all right, we have to cut pulling off my mask and

01:06:55.080 being unable to breathe and getting dizzy. And this kept happening. And, um, you know,

01:06:59.500 I went to doctors and they said, well, it's panic attacks. I said, I don't think these are panic

01:07:02.740 attacks. I mean, I can actually feel it. But the problem is when doctors just say, well, it's panic

01:07:06.560 attack. You, you assume it must be true. And so I thought I was losing my mind. I thought, well,

01:07:10.580 I guess I just can't stop getting panic attacks. We found out, and this is a whole long story short,

01:07:15.260 due to genetic, it's called Ehlers-Danlos. It's this connective tissue thing, but I don't want

01:07:18.880 to be one of those people who goes out and champions like, ah, you can still do it with

01:07:22.380 Ehlers-Danlos. The fact is we all have a pain in the ass. Uh, the cartilage doesn't really work

01:07:26.260 very well in my body. My sternum was pressing against my heart and my lungs. So my heart wasn't

01:07:30.780 able to pump fully. So it was actually happening. I wasn't losing my mind. Uh, that had never happened

01:07:36.280 before. This was like a new issue. Uh, no, it had been slowly, I guess, kind of getting worse and

01:07:42.180 worse as you get older. So I'd always had a concave funny enough on air. I think six years

01:07:47.300 ago, we did a competition to see how many coffee beans we could fit in my sternum hole. And it was

01:07:54.180 104. I didn't know that it was killing me. You know, I was like, ah, look at this. Cause as a kid,

01:07:59.320 I used to eat M and M's out of it. It was like a, use as a cereal bowl. I didn't, I didn't know that

01:08:04.160 it was actually, as you get older, you know, it can become a little more substantial. So they did

01:08:08.580 amazing surgery at Mayo. Okay. Just to be clear, great work, please. They are blameless. They put

01:08:13.140 in three titanium rods, push it back out. The problem is, uh, they told me that you'll be able

01:08:19.040 to walk like within a day or two. And then I, I overdid it. I called them and said, well, I'm

01:08:23.580 getting, I'm not feeling that well. And I said, what do you mean? I said, well, I went to Costco

01:08:26.720 and I went to this way you went to Costco in the grocery store. Are you out of your mind? I said,

01:08:30.760 what? They said, we meant like walk from the kitchen to the bathroom. You're not supposed to be

01:08:33.720 going out. So, uh, that's when I, uh, I had some kind of weird internal bleeding and yet

01:08:38.700 collapsed my lungs, a gallon and a half of fluid in my body, uh, two weeks before the twins came.

01:08:44.360 But look, it's a pain in the ass. Everyone has their pain in the ass. Wait, stop it, stop it,

01:08:48.400 stop it. Don't, don't just skip by that. So the day of the lung collapse, what did that feel like?

01:08:55.680 Um, Oh, Megan, you're going to do that. You're going to try and get me to cry. I talked about this.

01:09:00.200 I want to know. I called, okay, here's what happened was, um, it got worse very rapidly.

01:09:06.240 It already had two x-rays and they said, well, maybe there's some fluid in there, but an x-ray

01:09:09.020 can't really tell you. And one night I went upstairs and, uh, which is really hard for me to

01:09:15.740 breathe. So I go to bed and now I'm realizing I can't breathe. It's, it's, it's about like this.

01:09:22.500 It's about everything that I have, everything to move my diaphragm. But the exhaling is right.

01:09:28.820 It feels like a truck. And I was kind of going in and out of consciousness because every time I

01:09:33.780 would wake up, I would say just, okay, don't, don't stop breathing. Don't stop breathing. Don't

01:09:36.260 stop breathing till it got to the point where my people take for granted your diaphragm, 0.92

01:09:39.860 everything, right. I have a gallon and a half of fluid in here and I can't even sit up. Um,

01:09:44.760 I can feel the lactic acid building up, you know, like when you work out and your muscles get tired

01:09:48.400 and I can feel the muscles in my diaphragm getting really, really tired, like unable to expand for air.

01:09:54.440 And I started seeing stars and I thought I was, you know, I thought there's a 50 50 shot. If I go

01:09:59.380 out that I'm just gonna, you know, my, I'm just gonna get tired and stop breathing. So I called,

01:10:03.960 called my dad at that point. Um, and told him, I thought it might be the last time that we talk.

01:10:08.040 And, uh, my friend who was downstairs in the basement, I couldn't even shout to him. Couldn't

01:10:13.060 hear me for some reason, woke up, took me to the hospital. They started draining me. I hit a nurse,

01:10:18.520 which I don't regret. I'll explain that later. And, uh, then five days later after being in the ICU,

01:10:23.940 you know, I was able to go home and then, uh, able to, uh, be there for as much as he can be

01:10:28.800 there with the whole COVID thing for the delivery of my twins. Yeah. Oh my. So your wife is nine

01:10:33.300 months pregnant and you literally are almost dying. Yeah. So can I, dumb question, but when you have

01:10:40.900 one lung that collapses, does the other lung not work? Like I would, how come you couldn't get the

01:10:47.300 breath in? Well, the other lung was partially collapsed too. So, um, and keep in mind what it

01:10:52.500 is. It's not fluid in the lungs. It's fluid in the thoracic cavity, right? So it creates water

01:10:56.920 pressure. So then basically the lungs can no longer expand. Uh, and I will tell you out of everything

01:11:03.820 that I had done, the most painful part was when they drained me because a gallon and a half,

01:11:09.100 they had to do it over the course of like four days, I think. And that first one, they weren't

01:11:12.520 expecting as much fluid. So they, you know, they put in a shot to numb you, but they put in a shot

01:11:17.240 to numb you about, you know, three inches deep. And then they stick in, I don't know when a needle

01:11:21.480 becomes a pipe, but they stick in with effectively like a renovation pipe through your rib cage into

01:11:27.760 your lung cavity and pull it out. And that creates this basic, like this change in pressure where I

01:11:32.880 could, that was the most painful thing, namely, cause they didn't warn me, warn me. They were like,

01:11:37.560 ah, you ever had this done? I said, no, like, ah, it's not fun. That's all they said.

01:11:41.820 Oh no. Well, I mean, I, I understand like just in having gotten an epidural on birth of my child,

01:11:48.600 I understand like the needle turning into the pipe, but not like this. I didn't feel it at all.

01:11:52.720 It was in for, it was in for six minutes and they're like, now that, and then just before he

01:11:56.280 puts it in, he goes, he goes, okay, you're going to, he goes, uh, we just put in the numbing thing.

01:12:00.120 He goes, uh, and then almost leans in, like he's been very friendly, but now all of a sudden he's

01:12:03.980 serious. And he goes, now, just so you know, when I put this in, you're going to want to cough.

01:12:09.440 It is very important that you do not cough. And then what do you think the first thing is you

01:12:15.500 have to do? I'm like, what's going to happen if I cough? Am I going to, am I going to die? Like,

01:12:19.960 what do I do here? So it's just the whole process. It's terrifying. So could your wife

01:12:25.000 be in the hospital at this point? No, no, this was, I was across the country

01:12:29.380 because she couldn't fly. So, because I had to go to Mayo Clinic in Arizona and she was at the point 1.00

01:12:34.360 where she couldn't fly. I mean, thank God. Well, I should have just classified her as being an 1.00

01:12:38.540 Air Force pilot so they could have the stretchy maternity suit that our government's spending 1.00

01:12:42.760 billions of dollars on. That's not a joke. That's right. That's right. Maternity. I remember 0.92

01:12:48.240 when I was hearing that story, I'm going, my wife can't fly now. So no, my wife wasn't,

01:12:51.740 wasn't able to be, to be with me. And it was, it was not supposed to go this long. The whole reason

01:12:56.740 for getting the surgery at this point was there was, there was an opening with COVID, that kind of

01:13:00.160 stuff. And, uh, I was supposed to be able to be back for several weeks at home before the birth

01:13:04.760 because, you know, with twins, they, they do a C-section. It's kind of scheduled. And then this

01:13:08.460 put a wrinkle in the plan. So, um, she was very, uh, she was very tolerant. And, you know, honestly,

01:13:14.460 one thing I will say for people out there right now, um, it's a pain in the ass, for example,

01:13:19.180 like doing this show I'm getting, after doing a show of my own and been up since four, I lose energy

01:13:24.340 quickly still. And it's the real thing is I think I've, I've learned that it's, it's, it's tough to find

01:13:28.520 like right now I have to do the rehabilitation exercises. And I kind of started feeling sorry for

01:13:33.340 myself for a little bit. That's why I say, just think of it as a pain in the ass because look,

01:13:37.180 when you have all the scar tissue and the titanium rods going in and, and just moving the empty

01:13:42.080 barbell is excruciating. Um, but you know what, it's just like, it's, it's tough to get motivated

01:13:48.800 to go into the gym at five in the morning to know that it's going to hurt and you're going to be very,

01:13:53.980 very weak. You know, it's not like when you go in and you're making progress and sometimes I'm not

01:13:59.400 just trying to be dismissive of it. You just have to look at it and say, everyone's got

01:14:03.260 their pain in the ass. This is what I have right now. It's one thing I have to deal with.

01:14:07.580 I'm not dead. I'm not dying. I am improving. It's just going to be a long way to go. And

01:14:12.820 that's just something you got to do. So, so what, what's going to happen with the rest of your

01:14:17.600 cartilage, right? There's a lot of cartilage in our bodies that we really need to stay exactly where

01:14:22.020 it is. So that's actually the condition. So before this, people can find the footage of me, uh,

01:14:27.640 tearing the ligaments of my knee and then fracturing my femur. Um, it, that's the issue is, uh, I, uh,

01:14:34.260 I've had 24 joint dislocations that I've had to reset in my lifetime.

01:14:39.520 Oh, wow. What about the back thing? Remember we tell last time you were on, we talked about your

01:14:43.520 back and what happened to you at Fox and going to the emergency room and that nobody came to visit

01:14:47.280 you. And that was your aha moment of these people don't give a shit about me. Um, yeah,

01:14:52.460 I understand. Um, but was that, was that also related to this now in retrospect or no?

01:14:58.520 Yeah, it's, uh, it's, it's the connective tissue. So it's like when people go to the gym,

01:15:01.940 you know, and you know, people drink your milk, cause you, you build up, right. You build up

01:15:05.380 protein, you tear down your muscles and you rebuild this protein synthesis. There's also

01:15:08.440 something called collagen synthesis. This is a genetic thing you can test for. I was diagnosed

01:15:13.060 fibromyalgia, which I was, I remember telling the doctors that you have fibromyalgia. I'm like,

01:15:16.960 no, I'm not a bitch. And he's like, well, don't, you can't say that. And I'm like, well, I can't.

01:15:19.920 You're my doctor. This is a patient doctor privilege, but usually fibromyalgia means we

01:15:23.700 don't really know what's wrong with you. Then my mom's got that. And I'm always making,

01:15:27.120 making fun of her saying that's not real. That's baloney. That's your excuse to get some sort

01:15:30.900 of a pain pill. Well, you're a horrible person. Oh, I have a story about a pain pill. I have a

01:15:36.440 story about that, but they can genetically test for this Ehlers-Danlos. There are different variants.

01:15:40.760 And I recommend if someone has, there's, there are two very deadly variants that affect the

01:15:44.740 periodontal disease, uh, periodontal, I guess, uh, your, your gums, I don't know what it creates

01:15:48.960 periodontal disease and that affect your cardiac tissue. Cause there's a lot of

01:15:52.300 collagen there. I don't have that. I have hypermobility. Um, which is also why when I

01:15:57.240 used to do, you know, jujitsu, which I don't know if I'll ever do again, as a big guy, it's kind of

01:16:00.680 like Gumby, like my legs behind my head, you know, I could do some weird stuff. Um, so yeah,

01:16:05.280 joints can pop out and any connective tissue can be tough. But speaking of pain pills. Okay. I know

01:16:12.340 everyone wants to talk about the opioid epidemic. That's the common ground. No, no. Look,

01:16:16.260 I think we've too, we've swung too far the other way sometimes because I had this surgery and I have

01:16:21.540 to go to Arizona, right? Because Mayo, it's the specialist, the best specialist in the world who

01:16:25.060 performs the surgery on adults. And, uh, they say, well, you're going to need pain, uh, you know,

01:16:28.920 some kind of pain medication for this amount of time. And I say, okay. And they say, but we can

01:16:32.640 only give you seven days worth because you're out of state. I'm like, well, what do I do? Like,

01:16:37.160 well, you got to find a doctor in your state. So I got to find a doctor in my state. And the doctor said,

01:16:41.320 are you pill shopping? I go, here's a picture of titanium rods. I had to show it to TSA yesterday.

01:16:47.040 Uh, and, uh, no, I couldn't get anything written. So I just had to do it without it. Yeah. Yeah.

01:16:52.680 Come on. Doctors are so afraid to prescribe it. Don't you even have like doctors watching your

01:16:57.200 show who said, Hey, I'll help you out. Like, I mean, I feel like maybe it's because I'm a woman.

01:17:02.400 I don't know. I feel like I'm still in the position of they're pushing it on me,

01:17:05.660 no matter what happens to me. I mean, I had my shoulder, um, a bone spur operated on in June.

01:17:11.420 It was like on nothing. And still I had plenty of opioids offered me. I was like, no, I'm good.

01:17:16.240 I don't need it. I'll just stick with the ibuprofen. I don't know. I, it hasn't been a

01:17:19.640 problem. I feel like they give me too much. Next time. Say you need it. Say you want it. And, uh,

01:17:23.840 I'll ship it your way. We'll become a felony right here. We can't do that. We're not Democrats.

01:17:29.400 We will be prosecuted. Um, so no, it was a problem. So I, you know,

01:17:33.500 and I will say there were certain things like over the counter, like actual lab tested, uh,

01:17:37.620 CBD that I use from a company and, and, and the thing that everyone's vilified Kratom has natural

01:17:42.040 opioids in it, but it's like at a certain point when you can't get anything and it's, and even

01:17:46.220 your, the, your doctor has said, tell them, tell this doctor, go to this hospital, tell them to call

01:17:52.000 me, right. The head of me. And they, they say, no, we're not willing to do it. It's Mayo Clinic.

01:17:56.900 It's not like Dr. Bobby, who you found on telecom medicine. Uh, what, why did you hit a nurse?

01:18:01.900 Oh yeah. Uh, she had it coming. No, but here's, here's, so here's what happened. I swear to you,

01:18:09.140 this is true. This is a true story. I, uh, so I'm not able to breathe, right? Let's go back to

01:18:14.700 where I was 50, 50 shot. Call my dad. Okay. Rush to the hospital. I get in. There's no one there.

01:18:20.000 Good. Uh, they get me at the ER. Yeah. There's no one there at this point. It's very, very early in

01:18:25.740 the morning and we're in a small town. So I get there. There's no one there. They get me in pretty

01:18:29.500 quickly in a bed. Uh, but I'm really like, like I'm saying at this point, I'm my, my friend,

01:18:36.060 Johnny boy, who was with me, said he was just trying to keep me talking. He was that concerned.

01:18:39.700 So, um, and my oxygen levels are low. And at this point I can only get one word out at a time,

01:18:45.060 right? Uh, if you ever saw the show Malcolm in the middle, I don't know if you remember there was

01:18:48.420 the black in the wheelchair who would talk like it was just like that. So this nurse walks up, 0.89

01:18:56.220 she hasn't even given me the oxygen yet. She goes, uh, mask. And I just go on and I have a mask under

01:19:02.780 my chin and I go, no, she goes mask. And I turned to my friend, John, who has the, you know, the x-ray

01:19:09.500 of the titanium rods. You know, this man might have complications breathing. Right. Um, and, uh, I go

01:19:15.040 show the Mayo thing. She goes, doesn't matter. You have to wear it. And she, she grabs the mask here,

01:19:22.720 but just a little too aggressive and kind of starts smearing it on my face. You know, a little

01:19:27.020 bit like Harry pulls off the tar and feather and home alone. So she starts pulling it up. And my

01:19:30.980 instinct, cause I'm just trying to breathe at this point was I just went, no, like that. But you heard

01:19:36.100 too much of a, like that. And like, you could hear a rat piss on cotton. I thought they were going to

01:19:41.400 call security. Uh, and then afterwards she just realized I just went like this. No. And, uh, she said,

01:19:46.280 well, it doesn't matter. It doesn't affect your oxygen level. Anyway, you should wear a mask, but she let

01:19:49.160 it be. I didn't have time to say, uh, you know, that's bullshit. I actually conducted a study here

01:19:53.120 in my own show where I double mask and went to, uh, the gym and different scenarios and a control

01:19:56.500 study. No, I just said, that's bullshit. Don't touch me. And we were good. Oh my gosh. Was that

01:20:03.780 ever, did you ever round back? What a crazy thing for a nurse seeing a patient that conditioned to try 0.99

01:20:08.240 to shove a mask over his face. Oh yeah. No, I, uh, once I got up to the actual, uh, I don't know what

01:20:13.480 you call it. There's the emergency room and I guess the ICU upstairs. There was a really,

01:20:16.460 really nice nurse there named Ramona. And I won't, so I won't say what she, but she goes, 0.99

01:20:21.700 uh, Oh, what she said, uh, she said, uh, Oh, let me give you another one. This is true. This is true.

01:20:26.640 So she, the same nurse says to me, she goes, well, you may just have to be here all night because

01:20:32.020 we don't have any room in the, uh, in the ICU or wherever the little hospital thing. I don't know

01:20:36.640 the terms for the hospital. She said, because we're overloaded with COVID patients. So she's sitting

01:20:40.780 there trying to scare me. And, uh, then I go upstairs and I get a nice cozy bed. There's this nice

01:20:44.740 nurse Ramona and she goes, uh, Oh no, she's full of crap. That, that woman's a bitch. She's 1.00

01:20:48.300 that we have no COVID patients in this house. She's going to be on CNN next week telling them

01:20:52.280 that it was an ivermectin overdose problem in the ER. There were six in the entire network

01:20:56.920 of hospitals and there were none in this hospital. So, all right. So thank God you get through it

01:21:01.860 and you realize that you're going to make it. And I would think that that would make the birth

01:21:06.220 of your twins, especially emotional for you. No, no, nothing. You felt nothing.

01:21:12.180 No, no, I'm not feeling it. Okay. You know what it is, is, um, I think for like, for me,

01:21:20.120 so I have, so, uh, my little girl, I connect with her more just because, uh, the boy wants

01:21:26.440 his mom and he doesn't really react to me. Whereas with her, I can do a bunch of voices

01:21:29.400 and I do impressions. Like I sang 99 bottles of beer on the wall and actually got all the

01:21:33.340 way down with a different impression for every single bottle and she loves it. So I can calm

01:21:37.660 her down and kind of interact with her. Whereas he, he, he wants his mom at this point. Um,

01:21:42.720 so I think for men, when you interact is when you connect with them for me right away with

01:21:46.640 the birth was, and again, kind of with my temperament was, Oh my gosh, this is, this is real.

01:21:52.540 I got to do this. I got to do this. I got to make sure this, I got to take care of them this way.

01:21:55.700 And yeah, there was, there was love, but it was a really overwhelming sense of responsibility.

01:22:00.180 And keep in mind, they were born a little early, you know?

01:22:02.760 And I, I just remember thinking, how could anyone have children, like have babies like

01:22:08.760 this and, and, and still be pro-abortion? I do remember thinking that like, how could,

01:22:12.600 cause they were born, you know, is twins premature. I'm going, this would be legal.

01:22:16.300 It would have been legal just today in Virginia, uh, to do that. And it really, that to me, uh,

01:22:23.620 was a, I've always been pro-life, but there was this visceral reaction where seeing them

01:22:27.320 and seeing that they're a living thing. And especially with twins, because you can see

01:22:31.280 the personality differences right away. You know what I mean? It's not just a fetus.

01:22:35.780 Uh, it's not even earlier. I mean, of course, as you know, early on in the pregnancy, that,

01:22:40.320 you know, that whole heartbeat thing is like, you see and hear the heartbeat of this little tiny shape.

01:22:46.220 And it's like, you can debate whether abortion policy is good, bad, legal, not legal to the cows

01:22:50.780 come home, but you can't tell me that that's not a life. I mean, that is that, that's science.

01:22:55.220 That is science. Yeah. No, it could not be sustained outside the mother's womb at that point.

01:22:59.080 But is that the relevant question? There's no, you see that heartbeat, whatever your position

01:23:03.480 was before, it's got to give you some pause. Like, wow. And to be clear, it was very special with my

01:23:08.580 kids, but I'm kind of a, uh, because of what I do and running a business and, you know, having a

01:23:13.720 target on my back with YouTube, the truth is I don't really have the luxury in my life to sit very

01:23:18.020 often and, and enjoy, um, the present moment or feel pity for myself. So I kind of like, okay,

01:23:24.760 I'm the moment I was out of the ICU kind of like, okay, boom, done go. Okay. Boom. Don't go.

01:23:29.720 That's what I have to do. Uh, and especially in a landscape that's constantly changing right now

01:23:35.260 with social media, with the way media is with the bad faith actors, who they are. But, um, it was

01:23:41.620 obviously very, very special to me to, to first, they brought up my, my son first, cause it can only

01:23:46.860 have one person that you have to be the same with the COVID thing. So it kind of had to do one at a

01:23:50.140 time. And also one thing is I, I still can't really hold both of them at the same time because

01:23:53.840 of the, what's going on with the bars and the rib cage. But, um, it was, uh, yeah, it is one.

01:23:59.700 I, I don't, I still, I never really liked kids that much. I still don't love other people's kids,

01:24:03.480 but everyone says my kids are cuter, but the difference is I'm right.

01:24:07.740 And you know what I have to say, they really do get better and better. It's like, I, I feel like in some

01:24:12.840 ways I'm more like a man when it comes to children. Like most of my women and friends are

01:24:16.780 like, Oh, when they were toddlers, I'm like, Oh my God, thank God that period's over.

01:24:20.620 My kids now are 12, 10 and eight. And it's so awesome. And it's been awesome for a good,

01:24:24.980 like four years, like eight, six and four was also awesome. I just think people, I don't know

01:24:30.380 whether you're having any of these feelings or not, but if you're not, if you're not feeling like a,

01:24:34.880 yes, nailed it. This is amazing. Just know it actually gets so good when they become more like

01:24:40.840 little people and they can talk and you can see their brains working and they're funny and

01:24:45.580 they fire up things in you and you can relive fun things like your favorite movie. It's just like

01:24:50.040 the next phase of parenting, people need to be told just in case they're not absolutely loving

01:24:54.080 the babyhood phase. I, you know, I appreciate that because a lot of, a lot of people just go

01:24:58.340 like, Oh, it only gets harder. I'm like, I don't really know if that's the case because right now,

01:25:02.740 every two hours, we're trying to make sure that they don't die. That's literally, they lay there

01:25:07.280 and I go, I go, please don't die. How do I make you not die? That's, that's about it.

01:25:11.940 Um, and if people want to know too, I've, it sort of occurred to me what we think is cute

01:25:16.400 about babies or young children is, is really just the, it's the kind of behavior where if an adult

01:25:23.920 behaved the exact same way, you would think they're an idiot, but to kids, we think it's cute.

01:25:28.780 Like with a baby the other day, she was, she, she just started, uh, she started like finding her

01:25:32.240 hand, you know, cause she couldn't. And then she kind of finally like, ah, like, look, she's finding

01:25:35.940 her hand. If your cousin, if your friend, Bob was like finding his hand, you'd lock him away.

01:25:41.220 So that's just, that's what we think is cute about them. But I will tell you,

01:25:44.860 there's nothing cuter. There is nothing cuter than we have a, you know, a big, big dog, uh,

01:25:49.460 Joe Lewis. He's a dog of Argentina, 110 pounds. And we figured he was going to be really good with

01:25:53.800 the kids. And of course, to people out there should never leave any dog alone with, with children,

01:25:58.360 particularly big dogs, no matter how good they are. But the what's there's something so cute

01:26:04.520 about bridled control, a dog that is a protective dog, a dog that is a powerful dog moving gently up

01:26:12.000 to interact with the kids and kiss them and understanding the difference between the little

01:26:16.640 ones. So, uh, Joe Lewis has just been great with them. He's been perfect. And that's been really cool

01:26:22.760 for us to see the interaction. They cry a little bit. He runs up, he checks on them, waits in front of

01:26:26.720 the nursery. We go in, he's like, okay, I've done my job. So, you know, there's a, there's a lot of

01:26:30.860 love in the house. That's something a lot of people skip over. Joe Lewis is, he's sort of another

01:26:35.520 version of Steven Crowder, like that, this big, tough guy who takes on all these massive battles

01:26:41.880 and challenges and doesn't back down. But like, there's a softer, more protective, sweet, kind,

01:26:48.680 loving side. I've seen it in you repeatedly. And I'm so excited to see where this is going. I bet

01:26:53.620 you're going to be an amazing, amazing dad, Steve. So happy you're feeling better. The twins are here

01:26:59.400 and, uh, I hope it's nothing but blue skies for you guys. Well, I mean, I'll swat them around a

01:27:04.320 little bit, but yes, thanks for the kind words. Just as that nurse. Talk soon. I hope. Bye. Thanks,

01:27:11.380 Megan. I hope so too. Lots of love.
