00:01:45.280 Mr. President, my company told me of the explosion on our rig on October 2nd.

00:01:49.780 Causing massive water displacement and triggering a tsunami.

00:01:52.640 They all heap the blame on me.

00:02:24.280 Why are men committing suicide of more than women back?

00:02:27.660 Because of you. 0.99

00:02:29.180 Okay, all right.

00:02:30.320 All right.

00:02:31.280 Let's go.

00:02:32.220 That's it.

00:02:32.740 That's the end of the round.

00:02:37.240 Well, welcome to Bar Fight.

00:02:39.740 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:02:40.500 I'm joined tonight by two guests. 0.87

00:02:43.080 Our first guest dedicates most of her time to combating the patriarchy online. 1.00

00:02:47.940 Please welcome Leftist Blondie. 1.00

00:02:50.020 I think we need to all realize we're in a room of crazy people.

00:02:53.140 And now our next guest, he's the founder of Allen Analysis, where he takes on government

00:02:58.180 overreach, corruption, and media bias, a noble pursuit.

00:03:01.440 It's Brian Allen.

00:03:05.340 Now here's how it works.

00:03:11.540 We will be debating three of the most controversial topics of our day.

00:03:15.340 The bell rings.

00:03:16.400 We duke it out for that round.

00:03:17.800 And then our friends in the crowd can come up to the microphones to change the topic.

00:03:21.500 If you think the topic's boring and you hate it and you want to talk about something else, that's fine.

00:03:25.120 Or you can pick a fight with any of us.

00:03:27.040 Do not wait.

00:03:27.680 There is a time limit for each round.

00:03:29.580 Anyone who comes up to the mic can win special prizes and a seat at our VIP section sponsored by Redneck Riviera Whiskey.

00:03:38.740 Look at that.

00:03:43.340 Lady, gentlemen, are you ready?

00:03:46.540 Ready?

00:03:47.580 It's time for round one. 1.00

00:03:51.500 Leftist Blondie, also known as Ann, kick us off.

00:04:01.440 What is your topic?

00:04:02.660 All right. 0.98

00:04:03.020 My topic is the majority of undocumented immigrants are more American than MAGA.

00:04:10.440 What's your argument?

00:04:11.920 You guys don't agree?

00:04:13.040 What?

00:04:13.360 I thought I was in friendly company here.

00:04:16.020 So I think that, one, not only do undocumented immigrants contribute to our economy greatly, but they also are notably not as privy to crime as Americans are.

00:04:28.840 Large statistics show that undocumented immigrants are far less likely to commit violent crime, murders, and other types of crime than American citizens are.

00:04:39.040 I think they're less likely to support crime than MAGA, who supports a president who has 34 convicted felonies and got off scotch-free, by the way, and didn't have to deal with any of the consequences and got to vote for himself in both elections.

00:04:52.400 He sure is lucky, isn't he? For the worst criminal in the world, he's pretty lucky. He didn't have to go to jail. He got to be president.

00:04:57.480 Okay, so you say that they contribute to the economy. I disagree with that, but let's let it be.

00:05:03.120 You say they commit violent crime at lower rates. It's sort of disputable, but I'll let you have that one.

00:05:07.180 You say they commit crime at lower rates. That's not true because they're illegal aliens.

00:05:11.160 But let's put that aside even for a second. In what way does any of that make them more

00:05:17.260 American than American citizens who voted for Trump, who are MAGA? In other words,

00:05:22.360 by what definition of American are the illegal aliens, these foreign criminals, 0.93

00:05:28.080 more American than American citizens? Sure. Well, I think one thing that constitutes being 0.98

00:05:32.280 American as being pro-democracy and being pro the rule of law as it stands. And I think supporting

00:05:38.460 a violent criminal and a felon as the leader of our country is far less American than somebody

00:05:43.620 who comes in here is seeking asylum and just looking for a better life and a democratic society

00:05:48.200 to live in for their family and for the future of the country. Now, okay, you mentioned rule of law.

00:05:53.080 Would you say that someone whose very distinction in the country is having broken one of the basic

00:05:59.420 laws of the country. Would you say that that person respects the rule of law? If the law is

00:06:04.080 something similar to jaywalking, then absolutely. Do you think national borders are similar? Do you 0.99

00:06:09.660 think national borders are similar to jaywalking rules? Yeah, absolutely. Okay. All right. Legally

00:06:14.640 they are. But we don't have federal jaywalking laws, right? We don't have federal ticket givers

00:06:22.000 to go around on the sidewalks of America. We don't have massive police forces that have been

00:06:27.460 defended by both political parties for many decades to enforce jaywalking law, do we?

00:06:31.980 Yeah, but there's an underlying assumption that that's the way it should be, that we

00:06:36.360 should be hunting people down on our streets and deporting them in the most cruel ways

00:06:39.760 and deporting people who are here illegally. 1.00

00:06:42.060 You're talking about the jaywalkers or the immigrants? 1.00

00:06:44.120 We should not hunt down the jaywalkers. 0.88

00:06:45.740 I jaywalk myself.

00:06:46.700 I'm a New Yorker originally.

00:06:48.180 But obviously, the majority of Americans...

00:06:50.460 So we shouldn't deport people just for crimes? 0.96

00:06:52.300 We should deport them for deportable crimes, namely entering the country illegally.

00:06:56.060 Is there another deportable crime? 0.89

00:06:57.460 or is this like a special case

00:07:00.620 it's just like a one off thing

00:07:01.800 there are additional crimes that you can commit

00:07:05.480 that will get you more expeditiously deported

00:07:07.860 but no, entering the country illegally

00:07:09.380 not having a right to be there

00:07:10.240 that's the sort of thing that gets you deported

00:07:11.540 and what's the benefit there?

00:07:12.800 what's the benefit in deporting them?

00:07:13.980 that we get to enforce the rule of law

00:07:15.640 I thought you said that an American is one who supports democracy

00:07:19.140 and the rule of law

00:07:19.900 well the democracy elected members to congress

00:07:22.120 who passed a law saying that there's a way to get into this country

00:07:25.060 certain people have the right, certain people don't

00:07:27.340 You tell me that that's the definition of an American, and then you throw democracy and the rule of law right out the window when it suits your benefit.

00:07:32.700 Are you throwing democracy and the rule of law right out the window when you jaywalk?

00:07:36.020 Are you throwing democracy out the window when you speed a little bit over the speed limit?

00:07:40.120 Well, I think we should also still have speeding tickets.

00:07:42.580 There's obviously tears to this.

00:07:44.300 I suppose that's true, but you're the one arguing that we should only enforce some laws and not others.

00:07:49.200 I'm saying we should enforce all of the laws.

00:07:50.480 You're the one that's arguing that we should only enforce some laws and not others because for some reason Donald Trump got to get off on 34 felony count charges of falsifying business records.

00:07:58.780 What's the criminal punishment for the crime that you're alleging?

00:08:01.280 For the, wait, wait, wait, alleging?

00:08:03.280 Yeah.

00:08:03.840 Alleging?

00:08:04.360 Yes.

00:08:04.900 Do you believe that he got a conviction for this?

00:08:06.460 You're saying that the president.

00:08:07.300 It's not alleged.

00:08:08.040 You're saying the president.

00:08:08.680 Michael, it's not alleged.

00:08:09.220 What is the criminal punishment for the crime you're saying Trump is guilty of?

00:08:12.660 There's things like fines.

00:08:13.920 He could have gotten jail time, but he got none of it.

00:08:15.840 He didn't even get probation.

00:08:17.200 And who determined that?

00:08:18.840 The judge.

00:08:19.260 The judge.

00:08:19.920 Well, I think that's how our justice system works, so I feel pretty good about it.

00:08:22.740 In the interest of not interfering with him becoming the next president of the United States.

00:08:25.620 Ah, got it.

00:08:26.060 And hold on.

00:08:26.420 Where was the judge?

00:08:27.000 Was the judge in some really red conservative state?

00:08:29.500 You tell me.

00:08:30.320 The judge was in New York.

00:08:31.380 Does that matter?

00:08:31.860 Which is a pretty blue state.

00:08:32.740 Well, I guess the point that you're making is...

00:08:34.800 So bias judges, Republicans don't exist in blue states, guys.

00:08:37.600 You heard it here from Michael Knowles.

00:08:38.720 Republicans don't exist in blue states.

00:08:39.740 Do you think the judge in the Trump case was a Republican and not appointed by a Democrat?

00:08:43.020 I didn't say that.

00:08:43.920 Okay.

00:08:44.200 All right.

00:08:44.560 You made the point.

00:08:45.140 You made the point that he's in a blue state.

00:08:46.640 I think you're spinning in circles on Trump, and I think you're getting off topic, but I think we should, before we move on, we should get to the point of the main question, which is, are these illegal aliens more American than American citizens? 0.67

00:09:00.420 And look, they're just not, right? By definition, they're not Americans. 0.90

00:09:03.860 I know we live in this world where we have to pretend like we don't know the meaning of basic words. 0.98

00:09:08.540 We don't know what a woman is. We don't know what a man is.

00:09:10.380 Oh, I know what a woman is. Do you? 0.56

00:09:11.580 We do know what an American is, and it's an American citizen.

00:09:15.240 Since people literally are not Americans, but let's say we stretch the definition of American into some woo-woo wonderland.

00:09:21.540 Let's say that an American is...

00:09:22.660 What's woo-woo about it? 0.98

00:09:23.580 Well, we're redefining something as other than it is.

00:09:26.400 Can someone tell me if I've said anything woo-woo? 0.69

00:09:28.940 I think it's woo-woo in as much as they are defined in this context by not being American.

00:09:34.400 But let's say, okay, an American is one who contributes to the economy. 0.86

00:09:37.640 We know with certainty that about 61% of illegal alien households receive some major form of welfare. 0.52

00:09:43.700 That's compared to 37% of native-born Americans. 0.95

00:09:46.200 So they take more than native-born Americans.

00:09:48.400 Is it that they speak the same language that we do?

00:09:49.640 I'm actually not sure they're not eligible to receive certain social welfare programs.

00:09:52.780 And yet they do anyway.

00:09:53.840 It's 61%.

00:09:54.640 How?

00:09:55.220 Well, I didn't say they receive all of the social welfare programs.

00:09:58.160 I said they receive at least one.

00:10:00.040 Where's that stat from?

00:10:01.100 The status from the Center for Immigration and Status.

00:10:02.580 What social welfare?

00:10:04.440 Well, it varies by the immigrant household.

00:10:06.740 Do you really have a question about the statistics or are you just upset that I've come up with that number?

00:10:11.800 No, I do. I do wonder what social welfare they're receiving.

00:10:13.220 Is it Social Security, is it...

00:10:15.220 It can be, no, not Social Security.

00:10:17.220 Though they also steal that.

00:10:18.220 But it can be healthcare, it can be food.

00:10:21.220 Regardless, let's move on to the next criterion.

00:10:24.220 Is it that they speak the same language that we do?

00:10:26.220 They don't. 0.87

00:10:27.220 Less than 60% of illegal aliens speak English with proficiency.

00:10:30.220 I know, I'm trying to be generous to your argument by seeing if there's any way that we can stretch the definition of being an American to include these people.

00:10:40.220 Is it that they've served in the military?

00:10:41.220 They don't.

00:10:42.220 None of them have served in the military, is that they contribute to their neighborhoods, they volunteer. 0.68

00:10:47.220 No, if you look at all immigrant households, including legal immigrants, they volunteer at about half the rate of native-born Americans. 0.98

00:10:53.220 Any way you slice it, these people are literally not American, just by the definition. 0.99

00:10:58.220 Volunteer for what?

00:10:59.220 Volunteer to help in their communities. They're not civically engaged at half the rate as Americans are.

00:11:03.220 Volunteer for what? Are these registered social welfare organizations? Are these...

00:11:07.220 Yeah, non-profit organizations, non-governmental organizations, volunteering for...

00:11:11.220 It's 15% for immigrant households, 28% for native-born.

00:11:14.240 Okay, and did you know that? 0.62

00:11:15.220 Okay. 1.00

00:11:16.140 Damn it. 0.99

00:11:17.480 Sorry. 0.99

00:11:18.280 I don't think I'm supposed to curse my mind.

00:11:19.100 Do we have any questions over there?

00:11:20.480 It's a bar.

00:11:21.260 You can get a little loose, you know.

00:11:22.740 Yeah, for the panel, first of all, blessed Lent, Mr. Knowles.

00:11:27.180 Good to see you.

00:11:28.120 Thank you.

00:11:28.820 Thank you.

00:11:29.480 So you said that illegal aliens, and I'm sorry, they're not undocumented because they never had documents to begin with.

00:11:37.320 That's what it means to be undocumented is they don't have documents. 0.90

00:11:39.980 They are illegal aliens.

00:11:41.020 The point is, you said that they don't commit nearly as many crimes as Americans.

00:11:49.680 If they commit any crimes while they are here illegally, that's one more crime than there should have been in this country.

00:11:58.020 You understand?

00:11:58.280 So then should we start deporting people who commit other crimes here?

00:12:01.240 Why would we make that exclusive to the citizens?

00:12:03.040 No, you see the distinction illegally.

00:12:04.720 Wait, wait, wait. Someone said yes. Can we get the confirmation on that?

00:12:07.320 We should deport criminals?

00:12:09.220 So when you go over 10 miles over the speed limit, we should deport you?

00:12:12.800 Get this guy out of here.

00:12:13.920 He said based if we deport the criminals.

00:12:15.780 Yeah, I'm kind of open to it.

00:12:16.680 It depends on the criminals.

00:12:18.060 Well, then we should deport the president of the United States.

00:12:20.240 I'm down for that.

00:12:21.180 I'm so glad we agree.

00:12:22.380 You heard the distinction that he made.

00:12:23.940 The distinction was, look, we've got to deal with the criminals who are already here who are citizens, 0.57

00:12:27.560 but any single crime that an illegal alien commits is gratuitous, so we could have deported them. 0.56

00:12:32.420 And I think that we should lock those people up. 0.99

00:12:33.720 Why would we send them back to their own countries to commit crime there and then to try to come back?

00:12:37.700 Well, hold on, I'm answering. 0.98

00:12:39.160 Wait your turn.

00:12:39.880 It's okay. 0.98

00:12:40.880 Look, why wouldn't we lock those people up and put them through the same due process 0.60

00:12:44.280 that we do for American citizens?

00:12:44.500 Why wouldn't we deport them before they commit the crimes? 0.97

00:12:46.580 One sec. 1.00

00:12:47.680 Why would we send them back to their own countries to go commit the crimes there 0.87

00:12:50.740 or to come back again and commit the crimes again here? 0.96

00:12:53.880 Well, they got in illegally the first time.

00:12:55.260 Why wouldn't you think they would get back the second time?

00:12:55.960 Right, we should enforce the border, which President Trump did.

00:12:58.300 Isn't this the same argument that you guys give for gun laws?

00:13:00.700 Like, oh, well, we can't take away guns because people will get guns anyway.

00:13:04.080 We can take away the open border, and we did under President Trump.

00:13:06.620 If we incarcerate them and not deport them, we are now paying for their upkeep.

00:13:13.660 We are paying for their bed, their food, their shelter. 1.00

00:13:16.660 We are not supposed to be doing that with illegal aliens. 1.00

00:13:21.420 You cross illegally, you break the law, GTFO. 1.00

00:13:26.580 So breaking the law is a sufficient criteria for deportation, is that correct?

00:13:29.820 Yes, it is. Absolutely.

00:13:30.220 So then we should deport the President of the United States.

00:13:32.220 I'm so glad we agree. Thank you, sir. What's your name?

00:13:34.020 Did the president of the United States cross the border illegally?

00:13:36.780 I don't think so. 0.97

00:13:37.860 No, but he committed 34 felonies and was found guilty of defamation of a woman that he r*****ed. 0.97

00:13:42.740 He didn't r***** anybody. 0.98

00:13:43.700 Oh, yeah, absolutely right there.

00:13:45.440 You know, CBS, ABC News had to pay $15 million to President Trump for that exact defamation.

00:13:52.060 So I would be very, very careful of accusing him of r*****.

00:13:54.520 For what specifically?

00:13:55.300 For accusing him of being convicted for r*****.

00:13:57.600 They had to pay $15 million, George Stephanopoulos and ABC News.

00:14:00.820 For specifically the accusation of r*****? 0.84

00:14:02.160 Yes. 0.99

00:14:03.200 Then why is he paying for denying that the s*** occurred? 1.00

00:14:06.980 Huh? 0.95

00:14:07.440 How do you reconcile those two things?

00:14:08.940 It didn't happen. 0.96

00:14:09.520 Trump was not convicted of s***. 0.96

00:14:10.700 He was charged and had to pay out money for losing the case, for defaming her, for denying that the rape happened. 0.95

00:14:17.960 There was a civil suit pertaining to various claims of sexual assault.

00:14:23.180 And George Stephanopoulos went on ABC News, the hatchet man for Bill Clinton, went on ABC News as a journalist. 0.99

00:14:28.920 And he said Donald Trump is guilty of s*** and was found guilty of s***.

00:14:31.720 And they had to pay $15 million because that's a lie and that's defamation. 0.89

00:14:35.360 And you might have to pay it too, so I'm trying to save you money.

00:14:38.460 Well, he can comfort me. I don't have that much.

00:14:40.480 But the problem is my question is still not being answered.

00:14:43.780 And the intelligent people in the crowd will understand this. 0.90

00:14:46.300 The question was how do you reconcile those two things where he was forced to pay up after denying the claim about r**p, 0.55

00:14:53.340 but also somehow he had to be paid for someone saying that he r**ped someone.

00:14:58.280 How do you reconcile those two things in the justice system?

00:15:00.740 unless one of those things is corrupt, and then how do you prove that?

00:15:03.460 Because, I mean, the actual short answer of this, though it's somewhat more nuanced,

00:15:07.000 is that there were civil claims regarding sexual assault,

00:15:10.920 but there was no criminal conviction ever of anything like ****.

00:15:14.840 And so the journalists got sloppy, kind of like you're getting sloppy with your language,

00:15:18.700 and they had to pay a lot of money because that's a very serious claim,

00:15:21.280 and it minimizes the claims of real victims.

00:15:23.320 So, all right, next question.

00:15:25.020 All right, so first I just want to express support

00:15:27.940 for the long-standing Western legal tradition of exile for crimes.

00:15:32.040 But the question to the panel today is,

00:15:36.520 who's more American, the illegal immigrant who's been here 20 years

00:15:40.060 or the H-1B who's been here three? 0.98

00:15:42.760 That's a good question.

00:15:45.300 Brian, we haven't heard from you yet.

00:15:47.620 Well, I think there's a distinction, right,

00:15:51.080 between a person who crossed the border illegally

00:15:54.200 as opposed to someone who did cross the border illegally

00:15:57.040 but then maybe overstay their time, because you guys didn't really dive into the distinction there,

00:16:01.720 right? You said illegal immigrants are people who cross the border legally, but there are many people

00:16:05.740 who cross the border legally, but then end up being undocumented along the way. So there's a

00:16:11.460 distinction there. As opposed to address this question, whether or not a person is an H-1B

00:16:18.840 and they're more American than a person who's been here for 20 years, I would say the person

00:16:23.160 who's been here 20 years is more american than a person who's been here for three years.

00:16:27.080 You know, you have been here for long enough to understand the culture, the language, the

00:16:31.580 nuances, you could relate more with the people. Sure, you're not documented, but you understand

00:16:37.980 enough...

00:16:38.980 Just a minor point. Sure, you're not, like, technically American at all, but...

00:16:42.920 So what makes it American, Michael?

00:16:45.000 Well, it's a great question. I'm so glad you asked me, because in answer to your question,

00:16:49.260 neither of them are American. The illegal alien who's been here for 20 years or the 0.73

00:16:52.940 h1b who shows up so that corporations can get slave labor from india neither of them are actually

00:16:57.620 american and so what makes it with you i agree with you wait do you think that somebody because

00:17:02.240 i have a question because we're getting into this whole thing where american equals legal

00:17:05.400 citizenship status that's what you believe i think there's more to it than that but that's at least a

00:17:09.200 minimal aspect yeah okay because i think that somebody who has lived here their whole life

00:17:13.500 has worked to support the american dream and the american economy and cares about this country cares

00:17:18.020 about building a family here which by the way more undocumented immigrants and more immigrants

00:17:22.040 overall live in traditional household with two parents in the home not just one parent like a

00:17:26.500 lot of americans tend to do they're also more catholic if you didn't know that so from the

00:17:30.840 southern border specifically um they are overwhelmingly more catholic we're still

00:17:34.920 fixing the protestant problem in this country don't worry we're fixing it don't worry hey now

00:17:38.800 i grew up protestant i want to i want to i want to win this round so i'll cut it out with the

00:17:42.060 protestant jokes sorry go on yeah but i look the problem is is i think somebody who has lived here

00:17:48.440 who's worked here to support the American dream,

00:17:51.420 who has a family and builds upon this idea that we have

00:17:55.240 of becoming a melting pot and becoming a place

00:17:57.480 where you can literally come from anything,

00:17:59.620 is far more American than somebody who sits here

00:18:02.060 and supports what happened on January 6th

00:18:03.860 where they were yelling to hang Mike Pence.

00:18:06.100 Do you support that?

00:18:07.300 I like Mike Pence. I don't want to hang him.

00:18:09.500 No, I don't. 1.00

00:18:10.080 Okay, so you condemn the J6ers for yelling to hang Mike Pence. 1.00

00:18:12.980 No, I think the J6ers are basically fine. 1.00

00:18:15.340 Is it bad or is it good? 1.00

00:18:17.240 And I think they rigged the election.

00:18:18.300 If you're asking me to be candid.

00:18:20.920 Yes, sir.

00:18:21.900 And I think the only person who died in political violence that day

00:18:24.880 was a pro-Trump J-6-er who was killed by a trigger-happy cop on Capitol Hill.

00:18:30.100 Look, and I think that's unfortunate.

00:18:31.280 Wait, so do you think that that's a trigger-happy moment,

00:18:34.000 but with Alex Freddie or Renee Goode, that's not a trigger-happy moment?

00:18:37.060 Yeah, that's exactly what I think.

00:18:38.400 Okay, so people starting the Capitol, okay.

00:18:40.740 Someone driving away from ICE, not okay.

00:18:42.720 Well, driving into ICE, you're kind of getting the direction a little bit off there.

00:18:46.220 Yeah, I think that running around the Capitol in a horned hat, you know, with a police escort is not great, but it's not a crime.

00:18:53.460 And forcing the sitting vice president to go into hiding for nearly six hours.

00:18:56.440 Six hours while they called for his death, by the way.

00:18:58.940 The thing you guys accused leftists of doing.

00:19:00.680 We keep getting off the topic of, okay, maybe we'll get back onto the topic.

00:19:05.000 But we have to answer a more important question, which is, who won that round?

00:19:08.900 Who gets to go sit at the Redneck Riviera VIP table?

00:19:13.180 Was it the first questioner?

00:19:15.280 Raise your hand.

00:19:16.220 Raise your hand.

00:19:17.920 Eh, it was Mezzo-Mez.

00:19:19.220 It was Mezzo-Mez.

00:19:20.040 Was it the second questioner?

00:19:24.220 I think it was number two.

00:19:25.660 Sir, enjoy your Redneck Riviera whiskey with your Mayflower cigars,

00:19:31.020 with your beautiful Daily Wire merch.

00:19:33.520 Go pick out one of those cool hats.

00:19:35.640 It's time for round two. 1.00

00:19:36.560 Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!

00:19:42.920 Brian, what is your topic?

00:19:44.500 All right.

00:19:44.980 So my topic is that America practices strict capitalism for the country's poorest, yet open socialism for the country's wealthiest.

00:19:56.960 Let's get started. What's your argument?

00:19:59.660 And the reason I say that, we could go back as soon as the COVID pandemic, right, during the PPP scam.

00:20:06.660 We had multiple rich corporations, including publicly traded corporations, who were told not to apply, but they still did apply.

00:20:14.980 who raked in millions of dollars from the government.

00:20:17.720 Can I just start out and say, I agree with you.

00:20:20.060 The COVID lockdowns are one of the largest transfers of wealth

00:20:23.220 from the poorer classes to the wealthier classes in human history.

00:20:27.140 I blame the Democrats because they're the ones who shut it down in the States.

00:20:29.760 But on that point, I totally agree with you.

00:20:31.740 So you could agree that the corporations get in $700 billion, right?

00:20:38.820 People like the Kushner family, Yeezy, who are billionaires,

00:20:43.680 walking away with millions of dollars i think easy got a little bit hit you know in recent years

00:20:48.140 he might be a hundred millionaires still but anyway he was a billionaire at the time he was

00:20:52.440 a billionaire right but they ultimately he walked away with millions of dollars from the federal

00:20:57.240 government but they're rich right but you have the future of our country the students right asking

00:21:05.000 for subsidies for health for education and they're told well kick rocks figured out yourself

00:21:10.120 It's capitalism. You took the loan, paid off yourself, right?

00:21:13.180 It's only $113 billion we're talking about here,

00:21:16.700 whereas the corporations walked away with three-quarters of a trillion dollars.

00:21:21.300 Now, hold on. Are college students the poorest Americans?

00:21:24.600 That was your prompt, right? The richest versus the poorest?

00:21:27.340 Correct. They are amongst the poorest, but that leads into my broader...

00:21:32.040 Because I thought they had a higher-than-average earnings potential

00:21:34.860 and expected income than the average American.

00:21:37.020 Earning potential if they finish college.

00:21:40.120 yeah right a lot of them don't finish college because but then they have less student debt

00:21:43.560 if they don't finish well in a sense right they have less student debts but they still have all

00:21:49.560 those years of debts right but that's not the point the point is these are the future of our

00:21:55.400 country you know these are the people we need to teach the next generation right to be smarter so 0.99

00:22:00.280 we can compete with china right so we can compete with russia right so we compete with all our 0.60

00:22:06.600 adversaries education is a key factor in that but we're telling these kids well

00:22:11.040 go do it yourself go figure it out kick rocks whereas the corporations you know

00:22:15.480 they live scot-free a lot of them barely paying the taxes okay I want to see that

00:22:19.080 card let me see that card thank you so the claim is America practices strict

00:22:24.180 capitalism for the country's poorest yet open socialism for the country's

00:22:27.900 wealthiest correct so that the well the very wealthiest benefit from socialist

00:22:33.060 policies and the very poorest are forced to just fight for fend for themselves strict capitalism

00:22:38.440 okay now uh then we have to ask a question for every dollar that the poorest americans pay in

00:22:45.640 taxes local state and federal how much do they get back in government programs what's that number

00:22:52.140 it's six dollars and 17 cents for the uh highest earning quintile of americans for every dollar

00:22:59.700 that they pay in taxes to the government.

00:23:01.640 What do they get back in government programs?

00:23:03.740 What's the number?

00:23:04.800 11 cents.

00:23:06.680 They can afford it.

00:23:07.920 They can afford it.

00:23:08.980 They're billionaires.

00:23:10.060 They have a lot of money.

00:23:11.120 That's just a write-off for them.

00:23:12.460 That's a trip to south of France.

00:23:15.360 That's nothing to them.

00:23:16.140 I didn't know Elon Musk needed Social Security checks.

00:23:18.720 I don't think he does.

00:23:19.760 But the claim was that the poorest are left to fend for themselves

00:23:22.880 while the richest are getting all these nice handouts.

00:23:24.980 And so my question then is, what is the effective income tax rate for the richest quintile of

00:23:31.960 Americans? If they pay taxes, that is, right? Sure, it's... They do. Here's the effective median

00:23:37.480 income tax rate. Sure, it seems high, right? There are certain states that have state taxes and we'll

00:23:41.920 pay federal, right? Nationwide. 31%. The effective rate applies if they actually pay their taxes and

00:23:48.900 they don't tax evade. That's an effective tax rate. That includes tax evasion. 31%. What is the

00:23:54.600 effective tax rate for the poorest quintile. Something in the 20s? No, it's actually less

00:23:59.520 than zero because they're net takers. So they effectively don't pay anything. Well, it depends.

00:24:03.600 It depends on a household, right? It depends on... It doesn't. It literally is just the bottom

00:24:07.360 quintile versus the top quintile, which totally disproves your claim. So then I think you might

00:24:12.660 ask, you bring up the corporations. This is a very good point because there is corporate welfare in

00:24:16.200 America. Now, corporate welfare is promoted by the right in some cases, but it's promoted by the left

00:24:21.040 too, for various favored businesses and industries. So both sides do it. It's about $180 billion per

00:24:26.560 year in corporate welfare paid out by the government. Then the question becomes, in terms

00:24:31.580 of means-tested welfare programs, what is the total annual spend? I'm not talking Medicare.

00:24:36.560 I'm not talking Social Security. Means-tested welfare, what's the spend? $1.7 trillion,

00:24:41.720 almost 10 times the so-called corporate welfare. So any way you slice it, look, we give a lot of

00:24:47.260 money to the poor. I'm for giving money to the poor. A lot of these government programs don't

00:24:50.760 work because they're full of fraud and they're ineffective. They violate

00:24:52.920 subsidiarity, but whatever. In principle, I'm for it. My only point is your claim

00:24:57.220 is totally bunk because in this country, the rich pay for basically everything

00:25:01.200 and the poor get a ton of free stuff. No, well, I'm not referring to welfare and

00:25:07.200 Section 8 so on and so forth. That's not what we're talking about here. I'm talking

00:25:10.880 about the fact that we all pay taxes, right? Well, some of us pay taxes. And we prefer to not pay taxes. A lot of us would not, right? But we still do pay our taxes, right?

00:25:18.720 We're Biden citizens, or we go to prison, right?

00:25:22.200 But, you know, our taxes aren't going to better infrastructure, road systems, high-speed rail, right?

00:25:29.580 Our taxes are going to the Middle East to fight never-ending wars, $3-4 trillion in Afghanistan.

00:25:34.480 Well, I thought Joe Biden had a big infrastructure bill, didn't he?

00:25:36.860 But the Republicans actually fought very hard to block that.

00:25:39.840 And now they're all taking credit for Joe Biden's hard work.

00:25:42.540 No, I don't want credit. You can take credit for that. I don't want the credit.

00:25:45.100 Well, I see a lot of them, like Nancy Mace, she takes a lot of credit for the money that went to her district, but I remember her voting against it, right?

00:25:54.840 So a lot of Republicans, they'll vote against it and say it's bad when it's happening because it's topical and they can get some points, some political capital.

00:26:02.120 But ultimately, we need to spend money in our country instead of spending on endless wars in the Middle East, regime changing, and fighting wars that have nothing to do with us and killing Americans.

00:26:13.640 We need to spend money here.

00:26:14.980 Right. As I just mentioned, you say we need to spend money here for the poor.

00:26:18.980 So $1.7 trillion a year in means-tested welfare.

00:26:22.760 How much do you want to spend? $1.8? $1.9? How much more do you want to spend?

00:26:26.200 I don't want welfare. We don't need more welfare.

00:26:29.700 We need investments, not just random investments, right?

00:26:34.300 Education, right? High-speed rail.

00:26:36.900 So hold on. We need to give money to people who are disproportionately wealthier than the poorest Americans, namely college students?

00:26:43.340 Well, college students aren't wealthier than Americans.

00:26:46.020 They are.

00:26:46.480 No, no, no, no, they're not.

00:26:47.760 Because I know people who are in college right now who are working two jobs to pay for college, right?

00:26:53.080 To pay for their loans that they took.

00:26:55.000 Sure, they had to get maybe their parents to co-sign.

00:26:57.500 But not because you're going to college means you're wealthy.

00:27:01.020 So that's not a fact.

00:27:02.420 Why do they go to college?

00:27:03.720 Because they want to have better prospects when they graduate.

00:27:06.460 Do they have better prospects when they graduate college?

00:27:09.160 It depends on what they...

00:27:10.380 There's my point.

00:27:11.360 It depends on what they go to college for, right?

00:27:14.600 If you go for a vocation, right?

00:27:16.720 Not just a vocation.

00:27:17.620 If you go for something technical, right?

00:27:20.040 All right, fine.

00:27:20.800 You know, I studied history and Italian literature at college.

00:27:23.380 It was the least practical major I could possibly have.

00:27:26.900 But the Daily Wire promises they're going to pay me any day now.

00:27:29.660 The first time in 10 years they're going to pay me.

00:27:31.420 Do we have any questions?

00:27:33.060 Hey, Michael, can I interest you in a rogue?

00:27:35.960 Six million? 0.81

00:27:36.480 Don't even do this to me, Satan.

00:27:38.060 Get behind me.

00:27:38.720 Because I, truly, like, I have been led to the desert like our Lord.

00:27:43.860 It is Ash Wednesday when we are filming this, and I said, I am giving up those delicious lip pillies, those poisonous nicotine pouches.

00:27:51.620 I'm kidding. We all know you can only handle threes.

00:27:52.280 And then you show up, you say, Michael, all the kingdoms of the world can be yours if you only bow down to my rogue.

00:27:58.360 No!

00:27:59.900 Um, uh, I was going to open with boring, because, okay, this last segment, the taxes, it's important.

00:28:07.140 This question's for Blondie.

00:28:09.560 Okay, so what's your favorite part of illegal immigration?

00:28:13.500 Is it... 0.73

00:28:15.140 My favorite part of illegal immigration is all the crime they commit. 1.00

00:28:19.280 I love it. 0.99

00:28:19.860 I love the crime that they bring in.

00:28:21.660 I love that it's less than the average American citizen.

00:28:23.780 Wait, hold on.

00:28:24.240 Wait, wait.

00:28:24.740 I was going to give you multiple choice.

00:28:26.440 Okay, okay.

00:28:27.600 Let's go.

00:28:29.120 Is it...

00:30:43.900 Illegal immigrants. 1.00

00:30:45.400 Who cares? 1.00

00:30:46.500 Do you understand?

00:30:57.800 Does the average illegal immigrant have 34 felony counts of falsifying business records? 0.86

00:31:01.540 Yes, but they're not.

00:31:02.540 Most illegals don't own Mar-a-Lago. 0.68

00:31:04.840 Wait, wait, I have a question for that guy. 0.90

00:31:06.900 Yeah, yeah.

00:31:07.240 Do you agree that being in the Epstein files is bad?

00:31:11.840 No.

00:31:12.000 Do you agree that pedophiles?

00:31:12.680 Certainly not.

00:31:13.100 Yes.

00:31:13.920 Certainly not.

00:31:14.200 Okay, okay, okay, okay.

00:31:15.220 Let me rephrase.

00:31:15.860 You live hard.

00:31:16.780 We're pro-pedophilia.

00:31:18.040 Generally speaking, yeah.

00:31:19.880 Yeah.

00:31:20.060 So, do you, generally speaking, also, he does agree.

00:31:22.840 He does.

00:31:23.180 He's a smart guy.

00:31:24.200 So, we could all agree that what the Department of Justice is doing right now is bonkers, right?

00:31:32.800 You mean the largest declassification of any documents in American history?

00:31:36.280 I disagree.

00:31:36.640 They were all redacted.

00:31:37.580 I agree that is kind of bonkers.

00:31:39.040 I wouldn't have done it, but.

00:31:39.920 I disagree.

00:31:40.480 There's over 6 million.

00:31:41.840 They released 3.5 million.

00:31:43.840 Heavily redacted.

00:31:44.840 Matter of fact, they didn't want them released, but Rokhanna, who I've interviewed multiple times on the topic.

00:31:51.820 I'm sorry.

00:31:52.440 I'm sorry that you've had to deal with it.

00:31:54.660 Rokhanna and Thomas Massey.

00:31:56.280 Guys, guys, guys.

00:31:59.100 Rokhanna and Thomas Massey forced Donald Trump's hand to release the files, which he did sign because he realized that he couldn't escape it.

00:32:08.500 But then you have Pam Bondi, right, releasing half the files.

00:32:12.280 Dude, yes, okay, fine.

00:32:12.860 Released them all.

00:32:14.380 What are you talking about? 1.00

00:32:16.020 The illegals in America, it's a big problem.

00:32:19.660 Epstein is a big problem, too, because there's a lot of string pulling happening, 1.00

00:32:23.320 a lot of chomos everywhere, touching kids and s***. 1.00

00:32:26.240 It's weird. 1.00

00:32:26.340 Wait, can I get another pop question in?

00:32:28.680 Yeah. 0.98

00:32:29.220 Higher rates of violent crime, American citizens or illegal immigrants? 0.92

00:32:34.340 Percentage-wise. 1.00

00:32:35.180 We're just going to go over with saying chomo. 0.99

00:32:37.080 More two-parent households.

00:32:39.920 Immigrants are the average American citizen.

00:32:42.280 These people are more American than you. 1.00

00:32:44.360 give a we're crazy okay oh we can talk about black families look hey i'm willing to condemn 0.99

00:32:51.940 that black families don't have fathers in their households now are you willing to condemn 0.99

00:32:55.260 donald trump for raping a woman having 34 melody counts none of them and being in the epstein file 0.99

00:33:00.120 38 000 times isn't this crazy i think we need to all realize like hey we're in a room of crazy 0.99

00:33:06.320 people you people are crazy if you're not willing to condemn one single thing that donald trump has

00:33:11.180 done, but the left is going to sit here and go, I condemn the first step act.

00:33:14.520 I didn't like that law.

00:33:15.480 That was the one law I didn't like.

00:33:16.580 I'm not a big fan of divorce.

00:33:18.200 I'm sorry, I missed that.

00:33:19.100 What did you condemn?

00:33:20.360 I missed that.

00:33:20.900 What did you condemn?

00:33:21.920 The first step act.

00:33:23.080 I didn't like that.

00:33:23.760 When he let the criminals out of prison the first term.

00:33:25.960 Now, he gets like 99% of things right, but that was one law I didn't like.

00:33:29.440 So there you go.

00:33:29.940 I condemn one thing he did.

00:33:30.660 But not being in the Epstein files 38,000 times?

00:33:32.860 Not really.

00:33:33.440 I mean, like Gmail's in it millions of times. 0.98

00:33:34.960 Do you think like child rape is bad?

00:33:36.760 So the thing is, there are very few things that CNN. 0.85

00:33:39.840 I like child food.

00:33:41.080 there are very few things that cnn and the left-wing website factcheck.org and i all agree

00:33:47.700 on the one thing we all agree on is that there is not a single substantiated serious allegation

00:33:53.180 of wrongdoing against trump in the entirety of the millions of episodes but how do we know that

00:33:57.460 how do we know that they haven't because the left and the right agree on this no we don't no they

00:34:02.020 don't they cnn factcheck.org michael knowles there you go you got the left and the right

00:34:05.840 They haven't, till this day, created a special prosecutor or task force to go through the files, just as France is doing, to figure out, are there any crimes here?

00:34:18.720 Did they commit any crimes that could be prosecuted?

00:34:21.160 We don't know this, because the trained eye haven't combed through the files.

00:34:25.600 They are doing it in France.

00:34:26.580 They started this last week.

00:34:28.020 But our Department of Justice is like, nothing to see here, folks.

00:34:30.720 Case closed.

00:34:31.460 Have a good day.

00:34:32.100 And that's why this became such a big topical issue, because Pam Bondi said, well, it's on my desk.

00:34:38.000 Then a week, maybe three weeks later, she was like, well, case closed.

00:34:41.380 We didn't find anything credible here without actually creating a task force to determine if there were anything viable for them to go after. 0.96

00:34:50.540 She just.

00:34:51.300 But but they did disclose over three million documents, right?

00:34:54.820 How many documents?

00:34:56.760 How many documents did Joe Biden declassify under his presidency?

00:35:00.080 Well, I can.

00:35:00.600 And they had all the same documents?

00:35:01.820 I could agree.

00:35:02.500 He should have released them as well.

00:35:03.400 Was it a single one?

00:35:04.360 Not a single one.

00:35:04.940 You could also agree that he was arrested under Donald Trump, right?

00:35:09.520 Okay, all right.

00:35:10.360 Next question.

00:35:10.800 He was also killed under Donald Trump.

00:35:12.680 He was murdered while he was president. 0.69

00:35:14.120 I thought he killed himself.

00:35:15.060 Conveniently.

00:35:15.720 Oh, yeah.

00:35:16.360 Hold on. 0.96

00:35:16.660 Are you opposed to the death of a child molester? 0.98

00:35:18.940 No, no, no, no. 0.95

00:35:19.500 I, for one, am not opposed to the death of child molesters.

00:35:23.040 I do not oppose. 0.99

00:35:23.760 Call me crazy.

00:35:24.820 But it's just so...

00:35:25.920 Okay.

00:35:26.440 Next question.

00:35:27.440 Michael, I have a question for you.

00:35:29.240 Yes.

00:35:29.560 okay you have been led off the hook this whole time no one has asked you a question and this

00:35:35.520 segment was supposed to be about the economy and i gotta tell you i am sick and tired of billionaires

00:35:41.940 because they could be doing so much to help the world but instead they keep trying to go to the

00:35:47.220 moon okay every billionaire is trying to go to the moon and you keep saying that the moon landing was

00:35:53.720 real you eat that tasty tasty government slop okay you keep saying that moon landing is real

00:35:59.080 And you are not man enough to admit that the moon is not real, Michael.

00:36:04.580 Okay?

00:36:05.000 The moon is not real.

00:36:06.680 It's an optical illusion of the firmament. 1.00

00:36:09.740 And you, and I know why you won't say it, because you are bought and sold by Israel. 1.00

00:36:13.600 And I am sick of it, Michael. 1.00

00:36:15.440 I am sick of it, Michael.

00:36:17.040 Why don't you call Benjamin Netanyahu and get the rest of your lines for this show?

00:36:20.640 I am sick of it, Michael.

00:36:22.020 The moon is not real.

00:36:23.540 Look, I have two words to say to that.

00:36:26.780 Oy vey, they got me.

00:36:27.960 You got me.

00:36:28.680 You totally got me.

00:36:30.120 You're right.

00:36:31.320 Benjamin Netanyahu invented the moon.

00:36:35.120 And I'm glad you went all the way.

00:36:37.920 And you didn't just talk about,

00:36:39.060 some people believe, like,

00:36:39.880 we landed on the moon,

00:36:41.160 like, multiple times in the 60s and 70s.

00:36:44.140 But you went much further

00:36:45.980 and observed that there is no such thing as the moon.

00:36:48.880 So I can demand your bravery,

00:36:51.440 and I'm sorry that Mossad and the CIA

00:36:54.040 and MI6 and the KGB

00:36:57.600 are going to take us all out right now.

00:36:59.720 And you know who that single agent is going to be?

00:37:03.120 You guessed it, Jeffrey Epstein.

00:37:05.200 That's right.

00:37:05.900 Okay, do we have another question?

00:37:07.720 All right, what's up, guys?

00:37:08.940 Things have been getting kind of out of hand.

00:37:10.460 I want to rein it back in, okay?

00:37:13.040 So how do we feel about Clavicular getting frame-mogged

00:37:16.420 by the ASU frat leader?

00:37:19.500 Based, absolutely.

00:37:21.180 No, unironically, look, I want to speak to you about this. 0.99

00:37:24.640 I think Clavicular is severely mentally ill. 0.99

00:37:27.080 I think something is f***ing wrong with him 1.00

00:37:29.380 He's on so much truck

00:37:30.640 I don't know if you guys know who this is

00:37:33.220 This is like some

00:37:34.000 Not so niche

00:37:37.520 Internet personality

00:37:39.820 If I hear that word again, I'm going to jump off a cliff

00:37:41.000 Clavicular

00:37:41.920 I don't get on this

00:37:44.440 So look, I sat down with Clavicular

00:37:47.600 For like two hours

00:37:48.720 And the guy, he's got to get on the right path

00:37:51.560 He's young, but he's a little on the wrong path

00:37:53.660 He's got to get on the right path

00:37:54.540 But he is the greatest reality TV star

00:37:57.980 Of the last 15 years

00:37:59.320 He ran over a person

00:38:02.020 Yeah

00:38:02.840 With a Tesla

00:38:03.760 They don't care about crime

00:38:05.340 And now he's walking around with a loaded gun

00:38:08.160 What do you

00:38:08.720 Yeah but did he or is it all just like reality TV

00:38:11.600 Like did you just get completely reality TV

00:38:14.080 Well just like with Rene Good

00:38:15.700 I heard the car hit him

00:38:17.500 I heard the car hit him

00:38:18.960 Just like Rene Good

00:38:20.360 I heard it it must be real

00:38:22.660 I know

00:38:23.820 Actually, that's a fair point.

00:38:25.540 That's a fair point.

00:38:26.220 It's all kind of contrived.

00:38:27.320 I agree.

00:38:28.560 All right, I just got completely bell-mogged.

00:38:30.900 Do we have any more?

00:38:32.000 No, we don't.

00:38:32.780 Okay, who won that round?

00:38:35.760 Was it, like, all those other guys?

00:38:37.620 Or was it WIT?

00:38:39.420 Let's go.

00:38:40.420 Let's go.

00:38:41.900 Was it the second guy?

00:38:43.540 Yeah!

00:38:45.280 It was WIT.

00:38:45.740 It was WIT.

00:38:46.320 All right, there we go.

00:38:48.320 Yeah, it's time for round three. 0.77

00:38:49.260 WIT!

00:38:53.820 Okay, round three is my topic, and my topic is that the secret to a successful marriage

00:39:04.900 is to reject feminism entirely. 0.99

00:39:11.140 Let's begin.

00:39:13.220 This is advice that I got from a good friend of mine, Andrew Klavan, when I got married.

00:39:17.920 I've now been married for seven and a half years and I've found it to be entirely correct

00:39:24.360 he said two pieces of advice one don't sleep with other people two reject feminism entirely 0.85

00:39:29.940 because feminism is intrinsically opposed to marriage I think there's a million examples of

00:39:37.820 this I don't think I really need to prove it but just one good example Simone de Beauvoir one of 1.00

00:39:41.740 the architects of modern feminism in the second sex says that marriage is obscene 1.00

00:39:47.300 in principle. She's totally opposed to marriage. Why is this? Well, because marriage posits a view 0.99

00:39:55.340 of human nature that changes things up. We used to think that men and women were complementary,

00:39:59.720 you know, yin and yang, we each need each other. Feminism says, no, we're basically the same.

00:40:03.760 We're identical, indiscernible, and therefore rivals. And this has led to a lot of downstream 1.00

00:40:09.020 social effects. 70% of divorces we know are initiated by women. When you look at college 1.00

00:40:14.520 educated women who are much more likely to hold feminist views, that number jumps to 90%. 0.98

00:40:18.740 We now have a study came out, I think it was in 2018, showed that 55% of single women think that

00:40:24.960 single women are happier than married women, which isn't true. They are not happier, but for our

00:40:30.360 purposes, it doesn't matter. The fact that they think they are is actually sufficient. For the

00:40:34.800 first time ever, boys in high school want to get married at a higher rate than girls in high school

00:40:41.220 do. This is a great shocking turn of events. People have turned against marriage. This was

00:40:45.880 easily predictable. There was another survey that came out that showed that where egalitarian

00:40:50.600 gender norms were introduced, marriage declines and divorce spikes. Also to be expected because 0.90

00:40:56.880 of mismatched expectations. In any case, the data are clear. Where feminism grows, marriage

00:41:02.580 Collapses, and so if you want to have a good marriage 1.00

00:41:04.560 Reject feminism 1.00

00:41:05.660 Alright

00:41:08.000 Well, I

00:41:09.380 I'm as liberal as they come

00:41:12.480 But I tend to agree in that regard

00:41:14.520 Let's go baby, let's go

00:41:16.720 Yes

00:41:17.760 Well

00:41:19.660 Primarily because

00:41:22.840 You know, it takes 0.96

00:41:24.320 Two people to make a home 0.82

00:41:26.520 Right, and a child

00:41:28.540 Needs the energy of both

00:41:30.620 Parents, you know, men, women 1.00

00:41:32.160 yin and yang and i believe that feminism is bias in a way where it it promotes just one of those 1.00

00:41:43.280 energies and you can't raise a child in a home where it's only two guys or it's only two girls 1.00

00:41:48.900 and it's not to take a jab here let's go baby ah i relinquished the microphone i just want to please

00:41:56.380 Please.

00:41:57.200 And it's not to take a job at the LGBTQ.

00:42:00.140 I respect them.

00:42:00.880 I respect what they're doing.

00:42:01.660 But nature, right, nature is something that is sacred

00:42:08.720 and something that should be respected.

00:42:10.780 Awesome.

00:42:11.420 Love it.

00:42:11.860 Agree 100%.

00:42:12.800 Leftist Blondie.

00:42:14.760 All right.

00:42:15.480 All right.

00:42:15.920 Okay, I figured this one was picked for me

00:42:17.900 because we had talked about the whatever podcast.

00:42:19.720 It wasn't picked for him, although if I had known,

00:42:22.040 I would have picked it for him.

00:42:22.960 so uh we actually find in studies multiple studies back this up that when partners share

00:42:31.560 ideas about egalitarianism and traditionalism then they have happier marriages so it's not

00:42:38.460 necessarily that somebody you know is happy if they're just both traditional it's actually what

00:42:45.240 we find is that when both partners share the same ideas about egalitarianism and about

00:42:50.660 traditionalism, then they're the most happy. Sure, I grant you that to some degree. Does one group

00:42:57.000 get married and stay married at a higher rate than the other? One group meaning which groups are we

00:43:02.200 comparing? The traditional conservatives and the liberal feminist types. The answer is yes. So it 0.58

00:43:08.200 is true that when partners, we used to apply that to accounting firms and homosexuals. Now we say 1.00

00:43:13.340 men and wives. Yeah, now we say it's husbands and wives. But when spouses agree, they are more

00:43:20.240 likely to have a thriving marriage. Nevertheless, if you are a conservative, you are much more

00:43:26.280 likely to get married, you're much more likely to get married earlier, you're much more likely 0.85

00:43:29.520 to stay married than if you're a liberal or a feminist. Okay, so there's an underlying

00:43:33.100 presupposition that staying married is a good thing. Overall, yes, on face value. If you know

00:43:40.900 what the word prima facie is, then you'll know what I mean by this. Prima facie, yes,

00:43:45.120 Prima fascist, actually.

00:43:46.640 Oh, we know.

00:43:49.320 I'll get in jokes, but prima facie, yes.

00:43:52.840 Staying married is a good thing.

00:43:55.500 There is an asterisk, however, to that.

00:43:58.220 Staying married in an abusive relationship is not a good thing.

00:44:01.440 Staying married in a situation where you no longer have love for your partner is not a good thing.

00:44:06.220 Staying married.

00:44:07.180 Hold on, I was with you.

00:44:07.920 Because on the first part, I'm opposed to divorce just generally.

00:44:12.300 But there could be an argument for a civil separation.

00:44:15.120 However, there was a study that examined this, I think, in Virginia, after the liberalization of divorce laws, which is one of the triumphs of feminism, supposedly.

00:44:23.120 So in the cases of the liberalization of divorce laws, within five years, divorce rates increased between 8% to 16%.

00:44:29.120 What percentage of those cases involve domestic violence?

00:44:33.000 The answer is 6%.

00:44:35.380 Domestic violence are reported domestic violence.

00:44:38.260 That's the problem that we run into.

00:44:39.680 6% of the divorce cases cite domestic violence.

00:44:42.020 Okay, and those cases are the cases where women felt comfortable enough, or the partner who was being abused felt comfortable enough to report that violence.

00:44:50.140 Now, we know in the real world, because we all exist in the real world, women don't always report violence.

00:44:55.800 Even in the case of a divorce?

00:44:57.340 What incentive would they have to hide it in the case of a divorce?

00:45:00.340 I grant you that in a marriage...

00:45:02.020 For retaliation purposes.

00:45:03.600 She's divorcing the man, I think he's going to retaliate.

00:45:05.780 You can't think of a reason why a woman might not want to hide the fact that her partner was abusive.

00:45:10.860 so that way he suffers consequences?

00:45:13.220 No, I can in a marriage, but not in a divorce case.

00:45:14.860 You don't think that abusers ever come back for their victims after they're divorced?

00:45:18.700 Does anyone think that that's the case,

00:45:20.440 that abusers just never come back after they've been divorced?

00:45:22.740 But in the case of leaving the home, taking the kids, and taking half his money,

00:45:26.160 I'm pretty sure the abuser is already angry. 0.94

00:45:28.460 So actually, in that case, the woman would have every incentive to cite the domestic violence

00:45:32.420 in order to incur even greater legal protections against him. 0.54

00:45:35.400 Just because a woman cites domestic violence

00:45:38.000 doesn't mean that something comes out of that.

00:45:40.860 It doesn't mean that that woman gets protection for that. 0.98

00:45:43.480 There's a reason why women don't report this is because they're not being believed.

00:45:48.040 So your argument is protected by police officers and law enforcement. 0.96

00:45:52.300 Yes, of course, they're not.

00:45:53.100 I just want to be scared of the repercussions.

00:45:55.100 Your argument is, well, look, divorce is justified in the case of domestic violence.

00:45:59.120 And I say, well, here's the percentages of domestic violence.

00:46:01.920 And you say, well, regardless of that, I believe that it's a much higher percentage based on nothing.

00:46:06.900 And researchers also believe that it's a much higher percentage.

00:46:09.700 Which one?

00:46:09.980 This isn't just me, like, going off the vibes.

00:46:11.800 Which one?

00:46:12.500 I cited a study to you.

00:46:13.540 Well, we can pull it up.

00:46:13.580 I have my phone on me.

00:46:14.500 You want me to?

00:46:15.380 Hey, we'll fact check them on the spot.

00:46:16.480 You don't know what this study is, but you're confident that it exists.

00:46:19.320 Okay.

00:46:20.220 Do we have questions from the audience?

00:46:22.580 Yeah. 0.95

00:46:23.300 This is for Libtard Blondie or Leftist Blondie. 0.98

00:46:27.420 Libtard? 0.99

00:46:27.780 I wanted to know. 1.00

00:46:28.300 Oh, I like that one.

00:46:28.820 I'll change my usernames now.

00:46:29.900 If you are on any SSRIs, and if so, how many?

00:46:34.220 No, thankfully not.

00:46:35.460 Just Vyvanse.

00:46:36.300 It works wonders.

00:46:37.240 You should try it.

00:46:38.300 Okay.

00:46:38.620 It works wonders.

00:46:39.200 Thank you.

00:46:39.740 stimulants wow that's it that's pretty much it yeah i mean the central point was just you thought

00:46:48.620 you were on the depression pills but you stumped him good grief no i'm i'm stoked man i'm locked

00:46:53.620 in if feminism is you know like supposed to make women happier more um you know just yeah happier 0.81

00:47:00.000 in society why are so many of them the ssri rates are sky high we get asked the same question about

00:47:07.040 cancer medication why are more people on cancer medication than they were in the past well that's 1.00

00:47:11.520 because we've developed cancer medications because women now have ways to effectively cope with their

00:47:16.620 anxieties with their depressions and that's a good positive thing i think people getting

00:47:20.560 treatments for the things that they've been struggling with is a wonderful thing well hold

00:47:24.840 on it's an interesting comparison you make because the reasons that people might be on cancer drugs

00:47:29.280 today could be one of two things either people are getting more cancer which they are or because

00:47:34.580 there are new drugs that are being introduced.

00:47:35.760 Well, maybe if they would stop smoking cigars.

00:47:37.500 Well, actually, I hate to cite medical studies, but fewer than four cigars a day has no statistically

00:47:43.280 significant correlation with mortality.

00:47:45.180 But since we're studying science here, regardless, regardless, in the case of depression and

00:47:49.900 the depression pills, the cause could be either more people are depressed because of feminism,

00:47:55.120 as the implication is, because women use these drugs at a very high rate.

00:47:57.300 I don't agree that the implication is feminism. 0.99

00:47:59.720 Or that there are just newer drugs to take. 0.90

00:48:03.380 However, the SSRIs and the depression drugs have been around for decades at this point.

00:48:07.260 So I think it would be hard to say that it's because of the introduction of the drugs.

00:48:10.260 Something seems to have changed in the rates of depression along with the advance of feminism. 0.76

00:48:14.120 Sure, there's also an increase in left-handed people.

00:48:16.560 Have you guys noticed that?

00:48:17.500 That's really weird.

00:48:18.320 Is something malicious going on where more people are being encouraged or persuaded into being left-handed?

00:48:25.580 No, of course not.

00:48:26.840 It's just that now that we have...

00:48:28.540 I was going to say, who said that?

00:48:30.340 That was funny.

00:48:31.600 But, no, it's not that more people are just being, like, there's not some conspiracy to convince people to be more left-handed these days.

00:48:37.640 No, but I guess the point is, left-handedness levels out with changing cultural mores,

00:48:41.700 and the Depression just keeps growing, and at younger and younger ages, and specifically with women.

00:48:47.300 So that's why I think that... 0.52

00:48:48.020 You know what also keeps growing?

00:48:49.340 What?

00:48:49.660 Wealth inequality.

00:48:50.680 In the countries where wealth inequality is the lowest, in the countries where wealth...

00:48:54.340 No, Michael, don't finish making your point, please.

00:48:56.620 Look at that butterfly over there.

00:48:58.080 The point is already invalid.

00:48:58.820 in the countries where wealth inequality is the highest people report the lowest satisfaction rates

00:49:03.580 in the countries where gender inequality is the highest people report the lowest satisfaction rates

00:49:08.180 and lowest happiness rates that's why you look at afghanistan and it's persistently at the bottom

00:49:11.900 of happiness levels globally you can look at countries like norway sweden iceland finland

00:49:17.020 those countries are always at the top what do they also rank at the top in gender equality you 0.82

00:49:21.620 know in afghanistan feminism brought about i don't it's funny you bring up afghanistan because in

00:49:26.100 afghanistan pretty much everybody's poor like it's not there aren't like a lot of steve jobs

00:49:31.940 do you think that women are less equal in afghanistan i thought you were talking about

00:49:35.320 wealth inequality we're talking about inequality generally speaking where there's gender inequality

00:49:40.080 and where there's wealth inequality but there's not wealth inequality in afghanistan everybody's

00:49:44.580 poor the one rich guy they had osama bin laden got killed yes the world is not one-dimensional

00:49:49.300 i'm just saying the point you just immediately undercut the point that you were making

00:49:53.120 unhappiness in a country. Did you not know that?

00:49:55.580 No, but the point you made was that

00:49:57.180 material wealth inequality

00:49:59.060 is the determinant of unhappiness.

00:50:01.160 I didn't say determinant. Wait, wait, wait. That's a straw man,

00:50:03.420 guys. If you pay attention, he's making that

00:50:06.260 the only point.

00:50:07.340 And then you cited the country wherever it was for.

00:50:09.200 I cited gender inequality and social stratification

00:50:11.160 of wealth inequality. What is gender inequality? 0.99

00:50:12.660 Gender inequality is less access to reproductive health care. 1.00

00:50:15.720 Abortion. 1.00

00:50:16.020 Gender inequality is less pay per... 0.95

00:50:18.500 But women, this is what's very strange. 0.97

00:50:20.540 We liberalized our abortion laws starting in the 1970s.

00:50:23.120 in America, but yet before the 1970s, and you can cite a Yale study on this, Yale Law School,

00:50:28.500 before the 1970s, women were much happier than they are today. Much happier in absolute terms

00:50:33.920 and relative to men. They were reporting that they were much happier. I want to make this

00:50:36.100 very clear. But you're reading their minds beyond the scientific surveys. Yeah, if we took a study

00:50:40.360 from Chinese people, did you know Chinese people have abnormally high rates of happiness? I wonder 1.00

00:50:45.320 why that is. Did you know North Koreans report greater satisfaction with their government?

00:50:50.680 I wonder why. 1.00

00:50:51.640 Can we trust that study?

00:50:52.720 Do you think that the statistics coming out of Yale and North Korea are equally reliable? 0.96

00:50:57.220 Actually, these days, maybe they are. 0.94

00:50:58.340 Maybe they are, actually.

00:50:59.500 Okay, do we have another question from the mic?

00:51:01.160 Yes, hello.

00:51:02.260 This question is also for LibTardBlondie. 0.99

00:51:06.300 I'm so serious.

00:51:07.520 I need a new username now.

00:51:08.840 That's fantastic.

00:51:09.300 Thank you.

00:51:09.820 It's kind of a two-parter.

00:51:12.120 The first part is if you were to rank white people in a list of your favorite race, would 0.59

00:51:19.040 they be the last one? Would they be at the bottom? Oh, you got the wrong leftist. She's a white 0.61

00:51:24.480 supremacist. Well, listen, no, no, no. To me, it seems like you really hate white people. I get the 0.99

00:51:30.820 perception that, you know, with your opinions on immigration specifically, wanting to import

00:51:36.360 millions of people, even if they were legally coming to the country, I still see it eroding

00:51:41.540 the social fabric of America and destroying what we are to call America today, right? 1.00

00:51:48.040 Can we connect that back to whiteness somehow? 0.98

00:51:49.940 Well, this is what I'm saying. 0.90

00:51:51.020 We started off at a point about whiteness.

00:51:53.020 Now we're at a point about cultural heritage.

00:51:55.400 Can we connect those two?

00:51:56.640 Say that again? 0.95

00:51:57.360 We started off making a point about whiteness, right? 1.00

00:51:59.580 Yes, because I think that... 0.95

00:52:00.760 About leftists hating white people, which I agree. 0.97

00:52:02.240 But America is historically a white country, 0.99

00:52:04.540 and I think that America is not America anymore if it's not white. 0.99

00:52:08.000 Words incoming. 1.00

00:52:09.460 This is crazy. 0.86

00:52:10.320 Well, if it's not majority white, I mean... 0.98

00:52:12.000 I did not expect this. 0.99

00:52:13.080 They really do hate white people. 0.58

00:52:14.840 I'm not one of those leftists. 0.85

00:52:16.240 That's the difference. 0.94

00:52:17.020 But it seems to me from your immigration opinion that you do hate white people. 0.98

00:52:21.480 I'm not here to replace white people.

00:52:23.560 I'm just here to say that white people don't have any special claim to any land over some immigrant who wants to work just as hard.

00:52:31.020 So do you hold the same opinions?

00:52:32.940 Take the case of James Fishback. 0.52

00:52:34.140 That's a white man.

00:52:34.960 I think immigrants work way harder than that man does.

00:52:37.280 Well, listen, I'm not necessarily a fan of James Fishback.

00:52:40.040 I'm just saying that you should hold that same consistency when it comes to a country like, you know, let's say Cameroon

00:52:47.040 If Cameroon were to be invaded by Europeans, do you not think that it should stay mostly Cameroonian? 0.77

00:52:53.040 What's invasion? 1.00

00:52:54.040 Well, they're they're coming into the country and changing

00:52:57.040 Like a three million a year showed up against your laws and you couldn't get rid of them. Hypothetically

00:53:01.040 I'm not even saying that those people shouldn't suffer consequences. I'm saying that they shouldn't deport those people

00:53:06.040 people. Now, if white people started coming into Cameroon, if white people started coming into

00:53:10.380 Cameroon, I'm perfectly fine with saying, hey, those people deserve basic rights. They deserve 0.73

00:53:14.700 due process. And in order to protect the people in Cameroon, we should also lock those people up 1.00

00:53:19.760 so that they don't leave the country, re-offend, and then come back. So you're saying we need to 1.00

00:53:25.640 keep the white people in Cameroon. This debate took a turn that I did not expect. Pro-imperialism,

00:53:31.220 pro-colonialism based downright white supremacy crazy crazy i didn't see it i want you all to 0.96

00:53:38.080 know that that was a straw man do we have another question y'all seen that bo burnham skit 0.95

00:53:42.520 it's a scarecrow you've never seen bo burnham no well not that sketch okay what's all right i'm

00:53:50.220 circling back i'm going back to the feminism part so here's the thing i have a problem with 0.92

00:53:56.420 term feminism to begin with. If you're talking about feminism being that as a woman I have a 1.00

00:54:02.800 brain and I have a right to have an income and I have the right to support my family and I have a 1.00

00:54:09.220 right to go to college and I have a right to be an equal member in my relationship. So if that's

00:54:16.220 what you're calling feminism then yes I'm a feminist. That said I'm also going to say this

00:54:22.380 as someone who's been married for almost 33 years at this point in time.

00:54:28.000 They are not mutually exclusive.

00:54:31.440 I can be someone who has a brain,

00:54:34.540 who had the advantage of being able to go to college,

00:54:37.600 multiple times, thank you,

00:54:39.800 who has an income that can support my family comfortably,

00:54:44.500 who does not have the benefit of, as a middle class member,

00:54:48.060 all of those tax loopholes that were in the first question.

00:54:52.380 And yet can raise my children to be independent thinkers.

00:54:58.080 Yes, no matter what side you're on, just be able to support your thoughts.

00:55:03.160 Be independent thinkers, be able to be problem solvers,

00:55:06.860 and be able to know that they are a person who has value in this world

00:55:12.640 regardless of their skin color, their gender, their sexual orientation.

00:55:19.100 Woo!

00:55:21.020 I don't know.

00:55:21.820 Wait, wait, wait, does the crowd not agree that people are created equal?

00:55:27.720 Y'all should be cheering for that.

00:55:30.860 No, see, wait, wait, wait, wait, I thought God created all of his children equal.

00:55:35.960 Why are we not cheering for that?

00:55:37.140 She said everyone's equal.

00:55:38.720 Yeah, no, I mean, that's all, that's great.

00:55:40.100 That was a lovely speech.

00:55:42.080 You know, the real, where the rubber meets the road, though, is whether when we talk about equality,

00:55:46.720 we mean a complementarity in that men and women are different, but of equal dignity made by God.

00:55:51.820 like Eve coming from Adam's rib rather than his head,

00:55:54.520 which would put her above him or his feet below him.

00:55:55.380 We're talking about magic.

00:55:56.380 I want you all to realize.

00:55:57.040 Well, you're Catholic, so you probably understand this reference

00:56:00.720 that, you know, the first wife of Adam wasn't actually Eve.

00:56:05.720 It was someone else, right?

00:56:07.440 Oh, yeah, the Lilith thing?

00:56:08.860 Yeah.

00:56:09.880 The Catholics don't believe that.

00:56:11.520 Really?

00:56:12.000 No.

00:56:12.460 No, no.

00:56:13.120 That's from Frasier and some medieval esotericism.

00:56:16.880 But we don't believe that.

00:56:17.580 Understand.

00:56:18.320 Wait a minute.

00:56:18.660 Understand. 0.56

00:56:19.100 Not the Christian on Christian violence. 0.55

00:56:20.540 Wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:56:21.820 Understand that, first of all, it's a very Eurocentric thing for the male to be the figure of the household.

00:56:30.420 Oh my God, I love you.

00:56:31.220 I disagree, I disagree.

00:56:32.820 Secondly, secondly, if you want to talk about the Bible, those books were chosen by individuals.

00:56:39.880 There were many other books that aren't in that one.

00:56:42.640 That I agree with, that I agree with, because Orthodox Christianity should be.

00:56:46.360 It is true, there are books other than the Bible.

00:56:48.880 There should be.

00:56:49.520 We all agree on that.

00:56:50.660 No, no, no, no.

00:56:51.200 But again, what's your argument that you're going back to to support your idea that feminist is bad? 0.86

00:56:59.140 Oh, my, okay.

00:57:00.180 Well, my argument is that it's contrary to human nature because it posits an anthropology that says that men and women are not complementary with different virtues and inclinations,

00:57:10.840 but that they're identical, that they're indiscernible, and therefore rivals and undifferentiated. 0.89

00:57:15.660 Wait, do you think any modern feminist— 0.86

00:57:16.080 So I think that's the error. 1.00

00:57:17.180 Wait, wait, wait. Do you think any modern feminist thinks that men and women are indistinguishable? 0.93

00:57:21.400 Yeah, basically. I think that... 0.79

00:57:22.620 Do you think that I believe that or that he believes that?

00:57:24.640 Yeah, do you think that women can do just about everything a man can do?

00:57:28.260 No, I don't think about everything. 0.99

00:57:29.460 No, what can a woman do that a man can't do? 0.95

00:57:31.500 Define just about everything. 1.00

00:57:34.040 Take everything and then take away just like a few things. 0.72

00:57:36.820 Can they be exactly the same as men? No, of course not.

00:57:39.540 Do you think women are ordered towards certain behaviors and men are ordered towards certain behaviors?

00:57:44.280 What does ordered towards mean?

00:57:46.200 Like, women are more nurturing, and they're better at being mothers, 0.62

00:57:49.240 and men are better at being in public life and earning the bread. 0.96

00:57:52.840 Men report higher levels of well-being being parents than women do. 0.60

00:57:56.960 Did you guys know that? 1.00

00:57:58.240 Women are less happy being parents than men.

00:58:00.440 I think they're a little confused.

00:58:01.480 Okay, stats don't care about your feelings, Michael.

00:58:05.320 That's the, yeah, the bell's over.

00:58:07.000 Okay, fine.

00:58:07.820 Anyway, that's my point.

00:58:08.840 That's why sometimes the libs do this thing where they say, 1.00

00:58:11.460 you know, if you like women, you're a feminist. 0.51

00:58:13.380 It's like, that's not really what Mary Wollstonecraft and, you know, Simone de Beauvoir...

00:58:17.300 Yeah, I've never heard that before.

00:58:18.700 Really? 0.80

00:58:19.240 If you like women, you like women. 1.00

00:58:21.400 I think, you know how Catholics, like, see the whole ghost. 1.00

00:58:22.960 I'll give you an example. 1.00

00:58:23.620 Aziz Ansari said that on a late night show. 1.00

00:58:26.120 English teachers across the country have said that in their feminist curricula in their classrooms. 1.00

00:58:30.580 But it's not it. 1.00

00:58:31.320 It's about more than that.

00:58:32.400 It's positing the idea that you refuse to answer that men and women are basically the same rather than complimentary. 1.00

00:58:36.640 I think a lot of feminist argument is that women aren't paid the same wage as men. 0.99

00:58:44.460 I don't pay my wife a penny. 1.00

00:58:46.040 Well, this isn't... 1.00

00:58:46.820 She spends my money, but I don't pay her a penny. 1.00

00:58:48.380 Hopefully your wife doesn't pay you either. 0.96

00:58:50.300 I mean, we could live in that world.

00:58:51.420 Well, as a person who was happily married five years now, I understand.

00:58:54.120 They were talking.

00:58:54.900 Love that.

00:58:55.180 But I just wanted to be clear.

00:58:56.860 There's a revision of history that just happened in real time, and I hope you guys re-watch this and see this happening.

00:59:03.380 What's that?

00:59:03.580 Michael Knowles just said, hey, you guys think and you can't answer that if you think women and men are the same thing.

00:59:09.640 I just answered you five seconds ago that I don't think men and women are the same.

00:59:14.020 How are they different? 0.82

00:59:15.060 I think they're different biologically.

00:59:16.780 If we're talking about males and females, biologically they're different.

00:59:19.560 Men are stronger on average.

00:59:20.820 Men are faster on average. 1.00

00:59:22.460 Men tend to think in different ways than women do. 0.99

00:59:25.260 How differently? 0.98

00:59:26.380 How differently?

00:59:27.120 You mean like they're better at math?

00:59:29.000 Would you go that far?

00:59:29.620 No, of course not.

00:59:30.260 Because, you know, the president of Harvard, the liberal president of Harvard, Larry Summers, came out and said that he got booted out of his position for it.

00:59:37.100 So you'd say men and women think differently, but how do they think differently?

00:59:40.560 Booted out of his position for what? 0.64

00:59:42.200 For pointing out that on the bell curve, the reason why women don't win the Fields Prize, they don't tend to do well at math, at the highest levels, is because men have a higher IQ at the tail end and a lower IQ at the tail end, that their bell curve is wider. 0.90

00:59:55.200 Sure, you can look at the reasons why they have higher IQ. Are men encouraged to go into these math fields more? 0.67

01:00:00.100 No, it's just natural.

01:00:01.240 Are they encouraged to go into...

01:00:02.140 His argument is that it's just natural.

01:00:03.400 What's the argument for that?

01:00:04.020 Well, I don't know.

01:00:04.560 You just said that men and women's brains work differently.

01:00:06.940 So I asked how so, and you wouldn't tell me how. 0.80

01:00:09.260 Sure.

01:00:09.560 No, I think that men think in ways that are more protective.

01:00:13.540 I think that women are more nurturing.

01:00:16.460 I don't know if I would agree with analytical.

01:00:17.880 I'm kidding. 1.00

01:00:18.140 Women are on the right side of the panel next time. 1.00

01:00:20.640 This is awesome. 1.00

01:00:20.960 They're more nurturing.

01:00:21.460 No, I think that actually, I think this is a key flaw in conservative ideology,

01:00:25.200 is that we pretend that men aren't as emotional as women.

01:00:28.300 Are men better at certain things?

01:00:29.620 How are men committing suicide more than women then? 0.99

01:00:32.260 Because of you.

01:00:33.040 If they're not as emotional.

01:00:34.100 Because of you.

01:00:35.060 Okay, all right. 1.00

01:00:36.340 Damn. 1.00

01:00:37.320 All right. 1.00

01:00:38.140 That's it.

01:00:38.800 That's the end of the round.

01:00:40.040 I don't know if I can make that joke here.

01:00:41.780 That's the end of the round.

01:00:43.360 This is great. 1.00

01:00:44.600 We got unexpected misogyny from one of the libs, 0.92

01:00:48.600 unexpected white supremacy from another lib. 0.82

01:00:51.020 No, I jest.

01:00:51.800 I jest.

01:00:52.620 That was one of my favorite episodes we've ever done.

01:00:55.060 Sorry, I kid.

01:00:55.340 I kid.

01:00:55.600 Don't cancel me, please.

01:00:56.780 I jest.

01:00:57.740 I'm kidding.

01:00:58.100 In my opinion, nobody wins a bar fight.

01:01:01.220 There are only losers.

01:01:02.500 So the question is, who lost tonight?

01:01:06.280 Who's buying the next round?

01:01:08.260 Is it Brian?

01:01:11.040 No, the audience loves Brian.

01:01:13.840 Brian, you should run for president with your ability to win over a room.

01:01:18.500 That's amazing. 0.77

01:01:19.840 Do we think that our friend Anne, the leftist blonde, lost tonight? 0.84

01:01:26.060 Lost or won. 0.73

01:01:28.800 And do we think that I lost tonight?

01:01:32.020 No, I might have lost in the sense that my guests have confounded me.

01:01:36.840 They've made me think and reorient and see the world differently.

01:01:39.800 Folks, thank you for being here.

01:01:41.020 Thank you to the two of you for being here.

01:01:42.720 See you all on the next episode of Bar Fight.

01:01:45.860 Hey, Michael.

01:01:46.760 What?

01:01:47.240 We never voted on the VIP.

01:01:48.860 I want Brian to be the VIP.

01:01:50.680 Sorry, hold on.

01:01:51.400 Who won the question round?

01:01:58.100 Brian, do you want some Redneck Riviera whiskey?

01:02:07.200 Sure.

01:02:07.740 All right, he's on it.

01:02:08.600 Come on over, Brian.

01:02:10.720 See you next time on Bar Fight.

01:02:14.580 That was great.

01:02:15.700 Welcome.
