Investing is all about the future.
00:00:02.440
So, what do you think is going to happen?
00:00:04.340
Bitcoin is sort of inevitable at this point.
00:00:06.860
I think it would come down to precious metals.
00:00:09.420
I hope we don't go cashless.
00:00:11.540
I would say land is a safe investment.
00:00:14.120
Technology, companies.
00:00:15.260
Solar energy.
00:00:16.280
Robotic pollinators might be a thing.
00:00:18.880
A wrestler to face a robot?
00:00:20.580
That will have to happen.
00:00:22.160
So, whatever you think is going to happen in the future,
00:00:25.680
you can invest in it at Wealthsimple.

00:00:30.320
I actually dated a girl one time who was liberal,
00:00:33.080
and we got into it about the trans stuff,
00:00:34.560
and I told her what I thought,
00:00:35.540
and she started laughing at me.
00:00:36.640
And she produced a photo of herself as a toddler,
00:00:39.460
and it looked exactly like a little boy.
00:00:41.260
And I have never genuinely been more scared in my life.
00:00:43.420
I thought I was going to have to kill her.
00:00:44.300
Yeah.
00:00:56.020
Welcome to Yes or No,
00:00:57.180
the bibulous battle to discover who knows whom
00:00:59.940
better.
00:01:00.920
My guest today is John Doyle.
00:01:02.660
How do we play?
00:01:03.600
I will ask John a yes or no question.
00:01:05.520
He will select his answer away from my prying eyes.
00:01:08.420
Then, I will guess how he answered.
00:01:10.940
If I guess correctly, I get a point.
00:01:12.600
If I guess incorrectly, I lose a point.
00:01:14.760
No matter what,
00:01:15.880
I will probably end up drinking.
00:01:17.960
Then, it's John's turn.
00:01:19.700
Neither of us have seen the questions beforehand.
00:01:21.900
Whoever has the most points at the end wins.
00:01:24.340
The stakes could be higher.
00:01:27.640
Are we going to make a little wager, Mr. Doyle?
00:01:29.980
Thank you for being here.
00:01:30.520
I'll make a wager.
00:01:31.120
Thank you for having me.
00:01:31.720
All right.
00:01:31.980
What's your wager?
00:01:34.300
If I have more points than you by the end of this,
00:01:36.640
you have to drink two of those martinis
00:01:39.120
within a ten-minute time period.
00:01:42.640
Wow.
00:01:45.120
That's brutal.
00:01:46.600
That's taken me.
00:01:47.260
What do you want to do?
00:01:48.180
You want to half measure?
00:01:49.600
No, I haven't drunk that heavily in days.
00:01:52.220
So, okay.
00:01:53.040
All right.
00:01:53.520
All right.
00:01:53.940
Fine.
00:01:54.200
Fair enough.
00:01:57.060
Maybe we'll even film it when I do it.
00:01:59.020
I think we should.
00:01:59.680
Maybe I'll do it before my show tomorrow.
00:02:00.980
I think we should.
00:02:01.900
And then, if you lose,
00:02:04.120
if I win,
00:02:08.300
you...
00:02:08.660
All right.
00:02:09.120
Well, you know what?
00:02:09.500
We'll make it even.
00:02:10.180
Then you have to slam two of those fruity little things
00:02:12.400
that you got right there.
00:02:13.200
That's not a martini.
00:02:14.380
It's not a martini.
00:02:15.180
I was told,
00:02:15.800
actually, because of the fruity implication,
00:02:17.860
I was not allowed to join you in having a gin martini.
00:02:19.600
That's crazy.
00:02:20.560
People have this misunderstanding.
00:02:22.020
They think that the martini is like a girly drink or something.
00:02:24.780
Yeah.
00:02:25.100
This is the stiffest drink you can have.
00:02:27.160
Yeah.
00:02:27.900
Properly made,
00:02:28.680
there's like a hint of a whisper of an essence of vermouth,
00:02:32.060
and it's just cold gin with some olives in it.
00:02:34.420
Oftentimes, when I'm in public
00:02:35.560
and I hear people accusing you of being fruity
00:02:37.260
because of your drink choice,
00:02:38.320
I always refer them instead to things like your intro.
00:02:40.780
You mind or my ukulele?
00:02:42.180
Yes.
00:02:42.620
Yeah.
00:02:43.440
It's not even in the top 20.
00:02:45.080
Right.
00:02:45.320
Now, what are you drinking?
00:02:46.420
This is a Tom Collins.
00:02:47.420
So that's just gin,
00:02:48.400
I think some club soda,
00:02:49.640
some lemon.
00:02:50.320
Tom Collins is a nice,
00:02:51.620
good old wasp drink.
00:02:52.820
Right.
00:02:53.020
I love a good Tom Collins.
00:02:53.800
That's me.
00:02:54.380
A white Anglo-Saxon papist.
00:02:56.040
Yes.
00:02:56.480
A wasp.
00:02:57.160
Like Bill Buckley.
00:02:57.900
Yes.
00:02:58.040
Do you know,
00:02:58.860
speaking of who knows whom better,
00:03:00.560
do you remember where we met?
00:03:03.380
Yes, I do.
00:03:04.300
I remember, do you?
00:03:04.880
Yes, I do.
00:03:05.480
Where did we meet?
00:03:05.920
That was at Matt Walsh's pro-life rally
00:03:08.740
outside of the Planned Parenthood in Pennsylvania.
00:03:11.760
That's right.
00:03:12.180
And that was May, perhaps 2019,
00:03:14.940
and I was wearing the Brett Kavanaugh
00:03:17.040
still like beer shirt.
00:03:18.360
He remembers.
00:03:19.040
Oh yeah.
00:03:19.580
It's a big day.
00:03:19.920
I remember this because I go,
00:03:21.600
the Walsh's,
00:03:22.180
it wasn't just Matt,
00:03:22.820
I think Alyssa was involved in putting this on too.
00:03:25.000
They were going to do a big protest
00:03:26.420
because of this lunatic state representative
00:03:28.760
or something at a Planned Parenthood.
00:03:30.560
And I said,
00:03:30.880
oh, I'll go out for that.
00:03:31.520
That's good.
00:03:32.520
And I'm walking around
00:03:33.560
and I see this kid there.
00:03:35.200
You were then kind of unknown.
00:03:36.840
Yeah.
00:03:37.240
And now you got your show at The Blaze,
00:03:39.000
your big deal.
00:03:39.960
That's right.
00:03:40.360
But at the time you were kind of unknown
00:03:41.580
and I looked and I said,
00:03:43.320
you have, I have that shirt.
00:03:45.080
Yeah.
00:03:45.280
And it was just Brett Kavanaugh
00:03:46.600
at his confirmation hearing.
00:03:47.880
Yeah.
00:03:48.180
And the three words,
00:03:49.100
a still like beer.
00:03:50.560
I said, I like this guy.
00:03:52.160
Yeah.
00:03:52.320
I remember you got into a Twitter spat
00:03:54.220
with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
00:03:56.960
And to add insult to injury,
00:03:58.340
you had a photo taken of you
00:04:00.160
and you were wearing just like
00:04:01.260
college Republican like pajama pants.
00:04:03.900
You had a glass of red wine
00:04:05.340
and you were wearing the
00:04:06.020
Brett Kavanaugh still like beer shirt.
00:04:07.280
I was like,
00:04:07.560
this is what I aspired to be.
00:04:09.160
So I ordered it.
00:04:10.120
I was on vacation.
00:04:11.000
It was me and my wife,
00:04:11.880
a good buddy and his wife.
00:04:13.780
And I was like,
00:04:14.180
I think AOC is picking a fight
00:04:15.400
with me right now
00:04:16.080
as we're sort of having
00:04:17.000
our nice little aperitif.
00:04:18.440
Okay.
00:04:18.840
You understand the rules?
00:04:20.380
I believe so.
00:04:21.760
All right.
00:04:22.280
That's one of us.
00:04:22.840
Find out.
00:04:23.060
I will go first.
00:04:26.320
Do you consider yourself
00:04:27.840
an expert on black people?
00:04:31.000
And this is,
00:04:31.500
I got to answer it.
00:04:32.260
You put your answer
00:04:33.100
what you would say about yourself.
00:04:34.480
And now I have to answer
00:04:35.760
how you would answer.
00:04:36.960
Cheers.
00:04:37.420
Cheers.
00:04:37.680
We can just drink now.
00:04:39.020
Chin, chin.
00:04:40.720
You do.
00:04:42.020
You do.
00:04:42.580
And I noticed this because
00:04:44.400
you have an amazing series.
00:04:47.540
That's right.
00:04:48.060
For Black History Month.
00:04:49.040
Mm-hmm.
00:04:49.540
Where you decided
00:04:50.580
you were going to debunk
00:04:53.180
what is known as Black History.
00:04:55.620
That's right.
00:04:56.140
Yeah.
00:04:56.760
What did you find?
00:04:57.820
Well, not a whole lot there,
00:04:59.580
I guess.
00:05:00.000
I mean,
00:05:00.160
there's just a lot of stuff
00:05:00.980
that's just plainly untrue
00:05:02.020
about certain inventions
00:05:02.980
that they claim,
00:05:03.860
periods of history
00:05:04.480
that even many conservatives
00:05:05.560
think are things
00:05:06.300
to admire or revere,
00:05:08.080
which are just false.
00:05:09.000
And so, yeah,
00:05:09.420
we thought we'd go through
00:05:10.140
the entire gauntlet
00:05:11.040
and I think we're on
00:05:11.900
day 14 or 15 right now.
00:05:13.240
We're a couple days behind,
00:05:14.180
again,
00:05:14.560
being culturally respectful.
00:05:16.740
We didn't want to be
00:05:17.440
completely punctual
00:05:18.360
in our releasing
00:05:18.940
of these videos.
00:05:20.620
And, yeah,
00:05:21.120
I do claim myself
00:05:22.500
to be a sort of expert
00:05:23.560
on the black people
00:05:24.780
whom I love dearly.
00:05:25.780
And it's because
00:05:26.340
I grew up in Detroit
00:05:27.160
around them
00:05:27.820
and I just understand
00:05:28.960
kind of how their culture functions
00:05:30.580
in a way that many
00:05:31.180
white liberals
00:05:31.900
who accuse me of racism
00:05:32.880
simply don't.
00:05:33.640
Because there's a thing,
00:05:34.660
it's not even
00:05:36.000
the history of black people
00:05:38.000
or the history
00:05:38.880
that involves black people
00:05:40.020
of which many histories
00:05:41.080
partake.
00:05:42.820
There is this thing,
00:05:44.400
capital B,
00:05:45.720
capital H,
00:05:47.120
it gets shoved down
00:05:48.040
your throat
00:05:48.360
by all the liberals
00:05:49.140
in February.
00:05:50.200
Black history,
00:05:51.500
as though it's this alien thing
00:05:53.340
from the rest of history.
00:05:54.680
Right.
00:05:54.960
And it's made up
00:05:56.140
of these very secular saints,
00:05:58.300
the, you know,
00:05:58.920
supposed, you know,
00:06:00.840
innocence of Rosa Parks
00:06:02.320
or something like that.
00:06:02.940
And a lot of it
00:06:03.840
is just contrived.
00:06:04.900
Yeah.
00:06:05.380
Yeah, it's your Rosa Parks's,
00:06:06.680
your Harriet Tubman's.
00:06:07.880
I mean, literally
00:06:08.320
all of these people
00:06:09.160
are, they exist as these
00:06:10.340
kind of, like you said,
00:06:10.960
this mythological figure.
00:06:12.400
Legendary sort of figure.
00:06:13.500
Yes.
00:06:13.700
And that is entirely
00:06:14.720
just a creation of propaganda
00:06:16.320
which serves to
00:06:17.260
uproot American history
00:06:18.840
and divide people
00:06:19.780
and lead us into accepting
00:06:20.960
what is referred to
00:06:21.840
on Twitter
00:06:22.120
as gay race communism.
00:06:23.040
Yeah, right.
00:06:23.620
Well, in this,
00:06:24.520
for a lot of the
00:06:25.680
black history stuff,
00:06:27.540
it actually was promoted
00:06:28.900
by, like, literal communists.
00:06:30.560
Yes.
00:06:30.880
In the 60s.
00:06:31.800
Yeah, okay.
00:06:32.340
All right.
00:06:32.640
I don't want to jump
00:06:33.500
any other questions.
00:06:34.140
You go.
00:06:35.340
I'll clear my answer.
00:06:39.280
In the current legal system,
00:06:41.120
would you advise
00:06:41.820
all young men
00:06:42.580
to get married
00:06:43.240
without any additional
00:06:44.560
prenuptial agreements?
00:06:46.540
I've got to give my answer.
00:06:47.740
Okay.
00:06:47.860
I'll clear my answer.
00:06:47.880
I'll clear my answer.
00:06:49.860
I'll clear my answer.
00:06:51.800
You got it correct,
00:06:55.760
but there's a big but.
00:06:56.840
Yeah.
00:06:57.800
So, yes,
00:06:58.660
I'm anti-prenup.
00:07:00.120
Mm-hmm.
00:07:00.780
Even though the system
00:07:01.980
is horrifically stacked
00:07:03.560
against marriage now
00:07:04.960
because of no fault divorce
00:07:06.080
and feminism
00:07:07.300
and all the rest of it,
00:07:08.720
I don't like the prenups
00:07:10.780
because I think it undermines
00:07:12.600
the sacrament of marriage.
00:07:14.080
You're signing up
00:07:15.160
for an exit ramp, basically.
00:07:17.060
However,
00:07:18.120
if one were forced
00:07:20.140
gun to one's head
00:07:21.200
to have a prenup,
00:07:22.400
I have the Knowles prenup.
00:07:25.240
Knowles prenup is simple.
00:07:26.580
One line.
00:07:28.380
Whoever dissolves the marriage
00:07:30.340
forfeits everything.
00:07:32.980
Whoever moves
00:07:33.900
for the divorce first
00:07:35.040
forfeits everything.
00:07:36.500
Mm-hmm.
00:07:37.160
I think that would be
00:07:38.240
the kind of prenup
00:07:39.220
that it's like the anti-prenup
00:07:41.700
in that the prenups exist
00:07:43.300
to undermine the marriage.
00:07:44.800
Sure.
00:07:45.020
This one,
00:07:46.100
it's like a prisoner's dilemma
00:07:48.380
or something, right?
00:07:49.060
It's like whoever moves first
00:07:52.080
loses it all.
00:07:53.400
Right.
00:07:54.020
Yeah, no,
00:07:54.440
I think that's a good way
00:07:55.100
to counter the incentive
00:07:55.980
to move in that direction
00:07:57.240
if you want half
00:07:58.300
of somebody's nest egg
00:07:59.380
or what have you.
00:08:00.240
I have to agree with you
00:08:01.600
because I am Catholic.
00:08:02.820
However,
00:08:03.460
I always try to keep in mind
00:08:04.440
which audience I'm speaking to.
00:08:05.860
And so if I'm speaking
00:08:06.500
to an audience
00:08:07.020
of just like every man
00:08:07.920
in America,
00:08:08.660
my advice is going to be
00:08:09.980
a little bit less applicable
00:08:11.200
than if I'm speaking
00:08:11.860
to my audience
00:08:12.520
where it's like
00:08:12.880
I'm probably selecting
00:08:13.700
just by nature of the content
00:08:14.920
that we're making,
00:08:15.560
the things we talk about
00:08:16.360
for a higher quality
00:08:17.720
of young man
00:08:18.340
who's pursuing
00:08:18.780
a higher quality
00:08:19.460
of young woman.
00:08:20.140
So in that instance,
00:08:21.440
I can understand
00:08:21.960
why he may be viewing
00:08:22.820
like red pill content
00:08:23.780
and getting himself,
00:08:24.520
you know,
00:08:24.940
all worked up
00:08:26.120
and paranoid.
00:08:26.800
But it is probably the case
00:08:28.040
that if you're being
00:08:28.580
very careful about
00:08:29.560
who it is you choose
00:08:30.500
to marry,
00:08:31.020
that those concerns
00:08:31.980
are going to be less
00:08:33.140
what they would be
00:08:33.940
for the general population
00:08:35.360
marrying,
00:08:35.880
you know,
00:08:36.040
general population women.
00:08:37.640
Not to say that,
00:08:38.400
you know,
00:08:38.580
conservative women
00:08:39.320
are angels
00:08:40.400
by any stretch
00:08:41.060
of the imagination.
00:08:42.680
However,
00:08:43.320
I would agree with you.
00:08:43.680
There have been
00:08:44.080
some high profile incidents
00:08:45.600
that have created problems.
00:08:47.220
That is a diplomatic way
00:08:48.700
to put it.
00:08:49.000
Yes.
00:08:49.520
Now,
00:08:50.280
there's two sides to this.
00:08:51.680
One,
00:08:52.600
yeah,
00:08:52.880
okay,
00:08:53.020
so you're saying
00:08:53.420
to my audience
00:08:55.860
which gets it,
00:08:56.700
I give some advice
00:08:57.720
but that might not
00:08:58.660
be totally applicable to it.
00:08:59.920
However,
00:09:00.420
I would say
00:09:00.780
I would not encourage
00:09:01.720
any man to sign a prenup
00:09:02.920
because I think
00:09:05.000
that action
00:09:06.680
is wrong per se.
00:09:07.980
Yeah.
00:09:08.200
And so I would never
00:09:08.800
encourage a bad thing
00:09:10.620
for people.
00:09:10.940
I wouldn't make
00:09:11.860
some moral concession
00:09:13.000
or equivocation
00:09:14.280
for one group.
00:09:15.500
I would say,
00:09:15.760
no,
00:09:15.880
no,
00:09:15.980
you just have to,
00:09:16.820
obviously,
00:09:17.240
you have to
00:09:18.240
order your marriage
00:09:20.400
toward the right thing.
00:09:21.540
Part of that is
00:09:22.160
picking the right girl,
00:09:23.060
sure.
00:09:23.540
Part of that is
00:09:24.360
leading your wife
00:09:25.940
in a way
00:09:26.480
so that you're,
00:09:27.600
you know,
00:09:28.020
moving forward together
00:09:28.980
in a good way.
00:09:29.740
I totally agree with that.
00:09:30.560
The only reason
00:09:30.940
I bring that up
00:09:31.740
is to say that
00:09:32.260
when I say this sometimes
00:09:33.260
I get yelled at by people
00:09:34.440
who are like,
00:09:34.980
how could you say this?
00:09:35.820
Haven't you seen
00:09:36.420
like what Andrew Tate is saying?
00:09:37.280
I'm like,
00:09:37.620
I am not talking to guys
00:09:38.940
who are watching.
00:09:39.540
You would never agree
00:09:40.340
with what I'm saying anyway
00:09:41.220
and at a certain point
00:09:42.020
I try not to be
00:09:42.860
the catcher in the rye
00:09:43.780
where I'm standing out
00:09:44.960
in the rye
00:09:45.380
trying to prevent stupid people
00:09:46.540
from like sprinting
00:09:47.260
off a cliff.
00:09:47.860
Like I would prefer
00:09:48.380
to talk to people
00:09:49.060
who I think are maybe
00:09:49.740
a little bit smarter,
00:09:50.460
a little bit more moral
00:09:51.380
and so I totally agree.
00:09:52.860
I would not advise
00:09:53.620
any guy to get into
00:09:54.800
that kind of situation
00:09:55.700
where you are conceding
00:09:56.740
the possibility
00:09:57.480
of it not working out
00:09:58.840
at which point
00:09:59.580
why would you even
00:10:00.280
But there is this tough
00:10:01.020
thing now.
00:10:02.740
I mean,
00:10:03.140
you even hear about
00:10:03.880
it's very rare
00:10:04.860
but even with the most
00:10:06.120
hardcore traditionalist
00:10:08.660
TLM attending,
00:10:10.260
Catholic,
00:10:11.360
you know,
00:10:11.760
even there
00:10:12.440
marriages dissolve
00:10:13.360
or you think of the groups
00:10:14.500
that have much higher
00:10:15.520
marriage rates
00:10:16.140
like Orthodox Jews,
00:10:17.980
Mormons,
00:10:19.840
you know,
00:10:21.140
depends on how you cut it
00:10:22.740
because there's so many
00:10:23.220
flavors of Protestantism
00:10:24.300
but some are much more likely
00:10:25.400
to be hardcore
00:10:26.920
about marriage
00:10:27.480
than others.
00:10:27.900
But you still have
00:10:29.560
this political fact
00:10:30.600
of a legal system
00:10:31.600
that creates
00:10:32.520
all these inducements
00:10:33.820
Yes.
00:10:34.280
to dissolve a marriage
00:10:35.280
and you think,
00:10:36.180
well,
00:10:36.320
okay,
00:10:36.520
you do have to grapple
00:10:37.720
with that.
00:10:38.220
Like,
00:10:38.360
I guess my,
00:10:39.240
the men going their own way
00:10:41.440
answer is individualist,
00:10:44.220
liberal in its own way
00:10:45.460
which is,
00:10:45.980
well,
00:10:46.060
I'm out,
00:10:46.840
you know.
00:10:47.220
But I guess my answer
00:10:48.460
being a proper,
00:10:50.320
you know,
00:10:50.680
I guess they would say
00:10:51.280
authoritarian or something
00:10:52.500
is,
00:10:53.060
well,
00:10:53.300
you need a political solution.
00:10:55.120
A lot of people
00:10:55.600
don't know this.
00:10:56.760
Divorce as we know it
00:10:57.680
is very novel
00:10:58.680
within the last half century
00:10:59.840
or so.
00:11:00.640
New York didn't legalize
00:11:02.260
no-fault divorce
00:11:02.900
until like 2011
00:11:03.800
or something.
00:11:04.960
You know,
00:11:05.100
it's very,
00:11:05.800
very recent.
00:11:06.840
But,
00:11:08.000
you know,
00:11:08.280
good luck talking
00:11:08.860
to the national
00:11:09.460
Republican platform
00:11:10.340
that says,
00:11:10.720
we're going to run
00:11:11.060
against divorce.
00:11:12.380
We're going to tighten
00:11:13.240
up the divorce laws.
00:11:14.340
Even the hardcore
00:11:15.200
GOP politicians,
00:11:16.880
they won't openly
00:11:17.780
run on that.
00:11:19.100
Yeah,
00:11:19.300
I mean,
00:11:19.540
insofar as the conversation
00:11:20.680
occurs at scale,
00:11:22.180
we hear a lot of talk
00:11:22.900
about men needing
00:11:23.520
to marry up
00:11:24.040
and get married
00:11:24.640
from these kind of
00:11:25.440
maybe more feminist
00:11:26.340
type conservatives.
00:11:27.260
But very little attention
00:11:28.420
is paid to doing away
00:11:30.220
with the privileges,
00:11:31.260
I guess you would say,
00:11:31.980
that women have gotten
00:11:32.620
from these kinds of
00:11:33.780
these feminist movements
00:11:35.020
which have enabled them
00:11:35.940
to have more freedom
00:11:36.600
to maneuver
00:11:37.020
within relationships.
00:11:37.980
So they want to have
00:11:38.920
their cake and eat it too
00:11:39.960
where it's like,
00:11:40.560
men must marry up
00:11:41.280
and marry me.
00:11:42.720
However,
00:11:43.020
also if I decide
00:11:43.740
I don't like this,
00:11:44.420
I'm free to leave
00:11:45.260
at any point.
00:11:46.600
Yeah,
00:11:47.020
yeah.
00:11:47.480
And the irony of it
00:11:48.980
is you say
00:11:49.620
it's a privilege for women,
00:11:51.060
but it ends up ruining
00:11:51.780
their lives
00:11:52.240
and they end up
00:11:52.640
being all miserable.
00:11:53.540
It's that kind of thing
00:11:54.300
of like,
00:11:55.060
you know,
00:11:55.460
a feminist will say,
00:11:56.700
you don't like abortion
00:11:58.120
because you want
00:11:58.580
to control women's bodies.
00:12:00.120
And then the kind
00:12:00.940
of squishy guy,
00:12:02.280
maybe feminist sounding
00:12:03.700
conservative says,
00:12:05.180
I don't want to control
00:12:06.300
your bodies.
00:12:06.960
And I guess my answer is,
00:12:08.620
I'm willing to control
00:12:10.220
your body.
00:12:10.620
Like in the sense
00:12:11.400
that that's not
00:12:11.840
what I'm chiefly after.
00:12:12.780
I just don't want you
00:12:13.500
to kill your kid
00:12:14.080
and I don't want us
00:12:14.740
to slaughter babies.
00:12:15.960
But I'll be blunt about it,
00:12:18.360
I'm willing to have the law
00:12:20.120
control people's bodies.
00:12:22.760
And like,
00:12:23.120
the law controls
00:12:23.780
all of our bodies.
00:12:24.580
I can't shoot heroin
00:12:25.300
right now in most states.
00:12:26.860
I can't,
00:12:27.320
you know,
00:12:27.620
like I can't drive
00:12:28.980
100 miles an hour
00:12:29.660
on the road home.
00:12:30.500
I can't,
00:12:30.820
like yes,
00:12:31.320
the law imposes
00:12:31.920
restrictions on our bodies.
00:12:33.180
It especially does that
00:12:34.380
to women in this case
00:12:35.600
of abortion,
00:12:36.360
but it's just,
00:12:37.340
you can't kill your kid.
00:12:38.540
Like, yes,
00:12:38.980
I guess that's
00:12:41.180
a restriction on you,
00:12:42.160
but biology and reality
00:12:44.600
and the law
00:12:45.100
impose restrictions on us.
00:12:46.320
Yeah, yeah.
00:12:46.840
And that's the nature of it.
00:12:47.900
And it is such
00:12:48.380
a dishonest framing too
00:12:49.360
because they're trying
00:12:50.020
to gotcha.
00:12:51.040
Like,
00:12:51.200
so you're saying
00:12:51.780
you want to,
00:12:52.200
it's like,
00:12:52.940
that's going to make me
00:12:53.780
look bad for saying that,
00:12:55.060
but I mean,
00:12:55.420
why don't you look bad
00:12:56.180
for suggesting
00:12:56.700
that you should have
00:12:57.360
like this kind of
00:12:57.880
political autonomy?
00:12:58.820
So it's just totally
00:12:59.420
like distorted
00:13:00.340
and disordered.
00:13:01.200
I have to go to work
00:13:01.920
to pay my mortgage.
00:13:02.800
That controls my body.
00:13:03.840
Okay.
00:13:04.000
That's right.
00:13:04.280
I'm clearing my answer.
00:13:07.840
Before I say this prompt,
00:13:09.320
we have to watch this video.
00:13:11.740
Yes.
00:13:12.280
That is the most
00:13:12.980
controversial weapon
00:13:13.960
in the country right now.
00:13:14.900
It's controversial
00:13:15.440
because I've seen
00:13:16.160
the damage it's done.
00:13:16.860
I've seen x-rays of bones
00:13:20.060
shattered like fire glass
00:13:21.580
dealt with these.
00:13:22.600
Are we shooting
00:13:23.080
these actual guns?
00:13:24.400
Yep.
00:13:24.840
Hit that.
00:13:27.320
There you go.
00:13:28.140
Oh my.
00:13:28.440
Was it scary?
00:13:29.360
It was a little,
00:13:29.840
I was a little,
00:13:30.560
I was a little freaked out.
00:13:31.580
Because it made a big noise?
00:13:32.940
It did make a big noise.
00:13:34.220
I walked in,
00:13:34.980
because I've never been
00:13:35.560
to a shooting range
00:13:36.260
or anything before.
00:13:36.900
I was walking in
00:13:38.460
through the hallway
00:13:38.960
and I like heard
00:13:39.900
the gunshots.
00:13:40.500
I was like,
00:13:40.860
oh, that's not too bad.
00:13:41.880
And then the door opened.
00:13:43.680
It was like,
00:13:45.040
oh, it was a lot,
00:13:45.640
it was a lot louder
00:13:46.200
than I thought it was
00:13:46.720
going to be.
00:13:47.720
Do you know why?
00:13:49.260
Well, because it's like
00:13:50.180
a little explosion
00:13:51.280
when you try to shoot
00:13:52.860
the gun.
00:13:53.420
That is what's happening.
00:13:54.600
It explodes.
00:13:55.660
It does explode.
00:13:57.100
Has your perspective
00:13:57.860
changed at all
00:13:58.700
on guns or gun control?
00:13:59.940
Is taking libs
00:14:06.980
to the gun range
00:14:07.800
more effective
00:14:08.620
in finding common ground
00:14:09.680
with libs
00:14:10.160
than an evening
00:14:10.900
with cigars?
00:14:13.240
Would you say
00:14:14.260
finding common ground
00:14:16.080
with libs?
00:14:19.940
Would you say?
00:14:24.860
You would say no.
00:14:26.840
Correct.
00:14:27.620
Yeah.
00:14:27.900
Why?
00:14:28.720
Well,
00:14:29.080
you must understand
00:14:30.180
those libs in particular
00:14:31.400
were friends of mine
00:14:33.080
from high school
00:14:33.820
which in that same summer
00:14:35.280
of 2019
00:14:35.860
when I was, you know,
00:14:36.700
getting my stuff
00:14:37.300
off the ground
00:14:37.920
I was like,
00:14:38.360
hey, do you guys
00:14:38.620
want to go shoot guns?
00:14:39.360
I'm trying to make content
00:14:40.180
on the internet
00:14:40.780
where we shoot guns.
00:14:42.100
And so we went
00:14:42.800
and these were good people.
00:14:44.060
I mean,
00:14:44.240
they are maintaining
00:14:45.160
a liberal disposition
00:14:46.000
but I knew
00:14:46.780
that they were good people.
00:14:47.680
I knew that they would
00:14:48.220
go to a gun range
00:14:49.180
with me
00:14:49.600
whereas most liberals
00:14:50.300
would think that I'm
00:14:51.020
like an insane crazy person.
00:14:52.300
Are they still your friends?
00:14:54.340
Two,
00:14:55.120
one and a half
00:14:56.040
would they say
00:14:56.900
they're still your friends?
00:14:57.880
Maybe one.
00:14:58.460
Okay, all right.
00:14:59.480
They're very fine people.
00:15:00.540
They're wonderful.
00:15:01.580
They're very fine people.
00:15:02.380
That's what Trump said
00:15:03.100
about Nazis at Charlottesville.
00:15:04.480
I'm reliable.
00:15:04.940
That's not true.
00:15:05.720
Oh, he didn't say that.
00:15:06.800
The point being
00:15:07.440
nowadays, frankly,
00:15:08.320
I don't know
00:15:08.560
if I would be comfortable
00:15:09.260
going to a gun range
00:15:10.180
with liberals
00:15:10.700
given the way
00:15:11.280
that they're like insane
00:15:12.240
and so I would almost
00:15:13.180
prefer to be
00:15:13.840
in a nice controlled environment
00:15:15.000
like a cigar lounge
00:15:15.860
where any damage
00:15:16.480
that's being done
00:15:17.040
is them to their own bodies
00:15:18.460
which, you know,
00:15:19.240
liberals famously enjoy doing.
00:15:21.040
So I would almost do that
00:15:22.520
and frankly,
00:15:23.140
I'm very jaded
00:15:23.860
in my old age
00:15:24.800
when it comes to
00:15:25.640
discoursing with these people.
00:15:26.960
I find it to be
00:15:28.540
almost an exercise
00:15:29.200
in vanity
00:15:29.820
or entertainment.
00:15:31.560
Like I will accept a fee
00:15:32.760
and I will go debate
00:15:33.520
someone on a college campus
00:15:34.520
but in terms of
00:15:35.360
actually believing
00:15:36.320
I can reach people
00:15:37.020
at this point,
00:15:37.700
I just don't know
00:15:38.480
that that's possible.
00:15:39.700
Not to say
00:15:40.120
we shouldn't try
00:15:40.940
but me in my old state,
00:15:44.200
I just don't know
00:15:44.700
if we can.
00:15:45.600
Yeah, you might,
00:15:46.300
the gun introduction
00:15:48.020
might reach some common ground
00:15:50.860
but not in the way
00:15:51.740
a lot of people think.
00:15:52.420
Like a lot of people think
00:15:53.040
you're going to take them there
00:15:53.640
and be like,
00:15:53.940
this is awesome,
00:15:54.520
I like guns now
00:15:55.360
and that's not really
00:15:56.020
what happens.
00:15:56.760
More of what happens
00:15:57.640
is that where they say
00:15:58.480
this is even scarier
00:16:00.340
than I thought it was.
00:16:01.600
Now you can find
00:16:02.560
common ground I think
00:16:03.480
in that when they
00:16:04.780
shoot the gun
00:16:05.380
it disabuses them
00:16:06.740
of some of their
00:16:07.580
Marvel movie notions
00:16:08.820
like why didn't the cop
00:16:10.240
just shoot the criminal
00:16:10.960
in the leg or whatever
00:16:11.920
and why didn't he shoot
00:16:12.600
the gun out of his hand
00:16:13.560
or you know like
00:16:14.280
you realize no
00:16:15.040
this is an explosion
00:16:16.020
that's happening
00:16:16.520
in a piece of metal
00:16:17.120
that I'm holding
00:16:17.580
but you can find,
00:16:20.680
I find with the cigars,
00:16:22.640
one,
00:16:22.980
they don't like tobacco
00:16:23.620
because they want to
00:16:24.300
have the devil's lettuce
00:16:25.140
instead.
00:16:25.820
Yes.
00:16:26.180
Fine.
00:16:26.580
Yeah.
00:16:27.220
But cigars are great
00:16:29.580
because it's not a vice
00:16:31.000
but it seems like a vice.
00:16:32.780
Cigars are not a vice
00:16:33.680
in my view
00:16:34.360
but it kind of
00:16:35.860
seems like it is
00:16:36.480
so it allows them
00:16:37.400
to let their guard down
00:16:38.220
and you can try to speak.
00:16:39.940
I'm not quite as jaded
00:16:41.120
as you are about this
00:16:42.600
in that
00:16:42.980
I think it takes
00:16:46.280
a lot of work.
00:16:47.240
It takes a lot of work
00:16:48.360
peeling back that onion
00:16:49.400
to try to get to any
00:16:50.780
because you have to
00:16:51.920
you have to get down
00:16:53.680
to the level of religion
00:16:54.620
and it's inescapable.
00:16:56.100
You have to get down to
00:16:57.460
okay you and I
00:16:58.280
don't even agree
00:16:58.840
on what a human being is.
00:17:00.120
We don't even agree
00:17:00.980
on what a man is
00:17:02.020
or what a woman is
00:17:02.840
or what a baby is
00:17:04.180
or what
00:17:04.440
so you have to get down
00:17:05.340
to this level
00:17:05.920
of like below morality
00:17:07.620
below anthropology
00:17:09.220
below epistemology
00:17:10.460
below like below ontology.
00:17:12.340
We can't even really agree
00:17:13.060
on what it is to be
00:17:13.840
because they're like
00:17:14.260
we live in a
00:17:15.280
we live in a simulation man
00:17:17.120
and the aliens
00:17:17.840
are going to come
00:17:18.380
with their technology
00:17:18.960
so you have to go
00:17:19.560
even deeper than that.
00:17:20.840
You have to kind of ask
00:17:21.540
okay like what is
00:17:22.380
where does being come from?
00:17:25.260
Sure.
00:17:25.520
What is that?
00:17:26.080
And so you're
00:17:26.680
all the way down
00:17:27.560
at the level
00:17:27.940
of first principles
00:17:28.700
that like you thought
00:17:29.920
you were going to find
00:17:30.520
common ground
00:17:31.000
on the second amendment.
00:17:32.140
It's like you actually
00:17:33.000
have to get down to
00:17:33.800
like okay
00:17:34.280
what is the relationship
00:17:37.080
between being
00:17:37.900
and existence?
00:17:38.820
Right.
00:17:38.880
You know
00:17:39.080
you have to get
00:17:40.240
so basic
00:17:41.420
and you probably
00:17:42.820
won't come to common ground
00:17:43.760
but you might
00:17:44.400
get them to think
00:17:45.540
a little bit.
00:17:46.180
Yeah.
00:17:46.600
Maybe or maybe not.
00:17:47.600
They get annoyed
00:17:48.540
with this too
00:17:49.060
because I'm sure
00:17:49.860
you've had this experience
00:17:50.700
where you can tell them
00:17:51.480
something to the effect of
00:17:52.480
hey I can actually guess
00:17:53.900
your opinion about
00:17:54.580
like literally any topic
00:17:55.680
and they're like
00:17:56.020
no you can't
00:17:56.620
and then you actually can
00:17:57.460
because you understand
00:17:58.360
from where it is
00:17:59.380
all being derived
00:18:00.180
and they are annoyed
00:18:01.380
by this because
00:18:02.000
they you know
00:18:02.460
fancy themselves
00:18:03.160
as very individualist types
00:18:04.480
very educated
00:18:05.320
well read
00:18:05.900
this is of course
00:18:06.520
not the case
00:18:07.040
but I find that
00:18:08.360
you know
00:18:08.600
the issue of the
00:18:09.140
second amendment
00:18:09.540
for example
00:18:10.040
they may even concede
00:18:11.380
like okay
00:18:11.800
this isn't as scary
00:18:12.580
as I thought
00:18:13.180
but these are people
00:18:14.200
who if presented
00:18:15.060
with facts about
00:18:15.740
who is actually
00:18:16.280
committing gun violence
00:18:17.140
who is actually
00:18:17.600
perpetrating
00:18:18.100
very recent
00:18:18.840
mass shootings
00:18:19.340
they would either
00:18:20.380
reject them outright
00:18:21.480
question the source
00:18:22.480
which is to say
00:18:23.080
I need to give myself
00:18:23.900
permission to not
00:18:24.620
believe you
00:18:25.100
or most commonly
00:18:26.260
they'll say
00:18:26.720
well I just need
00:18:27.400
to do more research
00:18:28.100
which again says
00:18:28.940
I don't believe you
00:18:29.820
this is simply
00:18:30.560
a fault of me
00:18:31.180
not having prepared
00:18:32.000
to explain
00:18:32.820
why I am so correct
00:18:34.000
but quite often
00:18:34.880
they just want to
00:18:35.480
exit the conversation
00:18:36.320
and they'll go
00:18:37.080
still vote democrat
00:18:37.840
which even
00:18:38.300
if they're democrat voters
00:18:39.740
who maybe are more
00:18:40.400
moderates on the
00:18:41.040
second amendment
00:18:41.600
two party system
00:18:42.660
I mean
00:18:42.920
everything else
00:18:43.780
that's evil and wrong
00:18:44.500
about the world
00:18:45.040
they're more or less
00:18:45.700
aligning themselves with
00:18:46.680
if not for this one issue
00:18:48.060
that we've reached
00:18:48.500
common ground on
00:18:49.260
and then two
00:18:49.960
it's like
00:18:50.320
if you're going to
00:18:50.960
tell me that
00:18:51.480
what the democrat
00:18:52.220
national platform is
00:18:53.280
not even the crazy
00:18:53.900
radicals from the 60s
00:18:54.960
like current policy
00:18:56.140
if that is a closer
00:18:57.420
approximation to how
00:18:58.500
you want the world
00:18:59.140
to look like
00:18:59.680
then common sense
00:19:01.140
like hey maybe
00:19:01.700
we should have a border
00:19:02.460
and not just like
00:19:03.260
I don't know
00:19:03.760
have American soldiers
00:19:04.540
die for feminism
00:19:05.300
in Pakistan
00:19:05.880
like those kinds
00:19:06.760
I just I don't know
00:19:07.920
if on my deathbed
00:19:09.240
I will not spend
00:19:10.100
more time wishing
00:19:10.860
I had spoken to
00:19:11.580
the retarded
00:19:12.040
and so I understand
00:19:12.900
that it is our job
00:19:13.740
to a certain extent
00:19:14.460
to reach people
00:19:15.460
but I might actually
00:19:16.960
on my deathbed
00:19:17.560
I might wish
00:19:18.760
I had spent more time
00:19:19.600
speaking to like
00:19:20.600
literally retarded people
00:19:21.980
that's right
00:19:22.320
charity
00:19:23.160
yeah right
00:19:23.980
and just like
00:19:24.620
actually learning
00:19:25.300
from people who have
00:19:26.440
but from people
00:19:27.460
who are just
00:19:28.200
politically obtuse
00:19:30.260
yeah
00:19:30.500
or unreachable
00:19:32.720
say yeah
00:19:33.720
I don't
00:19:34.660
I won't have wished
00:19:35.980
I had more Twitter fights
00:19:37.340
frankly like Shane Gillis says
00:19:39.060
they're much more pleasant
00:19:40.120
to speak to
00:19:40.900
literally retarded
00:19:42.180
yes
00:19:42.500
yeah certainly
00:19:42.960
whereas like liberals
00:19:43.520
are always like bitter
00:19:44.340
and angry about something
00:19:45.480
whereas you know
00:19:46.100
you speak to like
00:19:46.680
people with down syndrome
00:19:47.440
they're just like
00:19:47.820
having a great time
00:19:48.580
all the time
00:19:49.200
it's something
00:19:49.900
to aspire to
00:19:50.700
and yeah
00:19:51.260
and it's those people
00:19:52.220
that the libs
00:19:52.700
are trying to kill
00:19:53.340
yes
00:19:53.680
boast about killing
00:19:54.800
literally
00:19:55.240
misery loves company
00:19:56.000
they are
00:19:56.320
they are threatened
00:19:57.020
by the fact
00:19:57.620
that they can enjoy life
00:19:58.700
yeah
00:19:59.100
right
00:19:59.640
right
00:19:59.940
because yeah
00:20:00.320
it does
00:20:00.600
it also gets down
00:20:01.560
to like
00:20:02.080
really base
00:20:03.080
assumptions
00:20:04.060
about what life is
00:20:05.080
when it's like
00:20:05.400
well it's just consciousness
00:20:06.460
or it's the ability
00:20:07.340
to have a career
00:20:08.020
or it's like
00:20:08.740
to make money
00:20:09.820
money money
00:20:10.480
or something
00:20:10.940
no it's really not
00:20:12.240
ultimately about that
00:20:13.120
because they're narcissists
00:20:14.040
like insofar as
00:20:14.800
they're even having children
00:20:15.680
they view that to be
00:20:16.420
an extension of themselves
00:20:17.540
it's like a Barbie doll
00:20:18.720
or something
00:20:19.100
and so
00:20:19.480
that's why they're all
00:20:20.200
like secretly eugenicists
00:20:21.360
too
00:20:21.480
the ones who are like
00:20:22.120
using these you know
00:20:22.800
embryo websites
00:20:23.900
and everything
00:20:24.420
so yeah
00:20:24.960
if they find out
00:20:25.660
that their child
00:20:26.160
is going to have
00:20:26.660
down syndrome
00:20:27.080
or something
00:20:27.540
they view that
00:20:28.360
not to be like
00:20:28.960
still my child
00:20:29.680
this is just now
00:20:30.320
an inconvenience
00:20:31.060
this is like
00:20:31.540
if I wanted
00:20:32.060
a defective handbag
00:20:33.280
yes
00:20:33.640
I wanted this for my birthday
00:20:34.880
instead I got like
00:20:35.720
the knockoff version
00:20:36.680
which is a completely
00:20:37.440
disgusting way
00:20:38.120
to view life
00:20:38.660
yeah
00:20:38.920
and they say
00:20:39.320
I'll return it
00:20:40.260
yep
00:20:40.520
there are actually
00:20:41.280
like lawsuits about that
00:20:42.240
from IVF companies
00:20:43.140
and yes
00:20:43.900
yeah it is
00:20:44.920
you're jading me more
00:20:46.440
even on conversing
00:20:47.860
with the libs
00:20:49.440
yeah
00:20:50.220
anyway you're up
00:20:52.280
we have to watch
00:20:54.420
a video first
00:20:55.580
did I do that right
00:20:57.500
it was well done
00:20:58.200
oh thank you
00:20:58.980
we're just like evil
00:20:59.860
the Tuskegee Airmen
00:21:00.900
right
00:21:01.120
the best pilots
00:21:01.940
of the war
00:21:02.420
they get Netflix shows
00:21:03.520
all that
00:21:04.040
black women delivering mail
00:21:05.420
better than everybody else
00:21:06.600
what was the actual
00:21:07.780
black service record
00:21:08.880
in World War II though
00:21:09.880
it was not very Hollywood
00:21:11.300
first off
00:21:11.920
America had 1.2 million
00:21:13.540
black soldiers
00:21:14.380
of which only 708
00:21:16.120
actually died in war
00:21:17.420
because they were
00:21:18.040
almost entirely
00:21:18.760
kept from combat
00:21:19.640
this is because
00:21:20.240
their scores
00:21:20.860
on the army general
00:21:21.820
classification test
00:21:22.920
which was given
00:21:23.420
to everyone
00:21:23.920
were lower on average
00:21:25.140
and so they were
00:21:25.700
instead often assigned
00:21:26.800
to things like
00:21:27.320
labor units
00:21:28.040
rather than combat units
00:21:29.380
I guess tests
00:21:30.200
have always been racist
00:21:31.120
for comparison
00:21:31.840
we only had
00:21:32.520
33,000
00:21:33.460
Japanese Americans
00:21:34.540
involved in World War II
00:21:35.820
and they had 800
00:21:36.900
killed in action
00:21:37.740
literally more people
00:21:38.960
from the country
00:21:39.540
we nuked twice
00:21:40.540
died for America
00:21:41.540
where's their Netflix program
00:21:42.800
the Japanese
00:21:43.540
truly our greatest ally
00:21:45.100
well you know
00:21:46.000
I didn't
00:21:46.780
I actually didn't know that
00:21:47.900
can I get a point
00:21:49.500
yeah
00:21:50.100
the question was
00:21:50.940
did you know
00:21:51.840
that the Tuskegee Airmen story
00:21:53.180
is as fake as Wakanda
00:21:55.020
well now I kind of want
00:21:57.540
to get the points
00:21:58.100
but I don't want to be a liar
00:21:59.300
yeah so I guess
00:22:00.560
you know what
00:22:01.480
to be honest
00:22:02.400
I assume that you did know that
00:22:03.840
and so
00:22:04.200
you're gonna
00:22:04.700
you're gonna out of charity
00:22:05.880
yes
00:22:06.380
I hadn't screwed up
00:22:07.060
my own game
00:22:07.400
okay
00:22:07.620
yes
00:22:07.900
no I didn't
00:22:08.880
because
00:22:09.300
well so look
00:22:10.580
the lib argument
00:22:11.380
would be
00:22:12.060
was it great
00:22:13.060
that was the most charitable
00:22:13.740
way to get a point
00:22:14.360
ever in the history
00:22:14.980
of this game
00:22:15.320
he didn't get the point
00:22:17.180
but now the producers
00:22:18.380
no because he knew
00:22:19.380
he assumed
00:22:20.360
had I not blurted it out
00:22:21.660
that I would have known that
00:22:22.840
I didn't know that
00:22:24.080
and what the libs would say
00:22:25.600
then
00:22:25.820
like before the second part
00:22:26.920
of your video
00:22:27.240
the libs would say
00:22:27.700
well yeah
00:22:28.020
they were kept from combat
00:22:29.280
they were kept from
00:22:29.880
these glorious roles
00:22:31.200
because they were underestimated
00:22:34.300
and it was segregation
00:22:36.040
and actually it would have been better
00:22:38.400
we hated them so much
00:22:40.920
we wouldn't let them go die in combat
00:22:42.400
yes
00:22:42.720
but then the second part is
00:22:44.020
well hold on
00:22:44.420
surely there was some prejudice
00:22:46.200
against the Japanese
00:22:47.260
in America after Pearl Harbor
00:22:48.740
but we did send them to combat
00:22:50.660
so is it
00:22:52.080
which is
00:22:52.920
we were so prejudiced
00:22:54.960
against the black people
00:22:55.860
we didn't let them fight in combat
00:22:57.020
and we were so prejudiced
00:22:58.080
against the Japanese people
00:22:59.540
we made them fight in combat
00:23:01.000
and something's got to give
00:23:02.640
one of those things
00:23:03.440
yeah their cousins
00:23:04.220
were like in internment camps
00:23:05.500
and we were like
00:23:06.160
hey would you mind going
00:23:06.940
and dying for our country please
00:23:08.180
and they did at a higher rate
00:23:09.560
per capita
00:23:10.060
so yeah it's just one of those things
00:23:11.660
it's the mythology
00:23:12.340
that's constructed
00:23:13.100
because if you want to tell
00:23:14.500
the story of black success
00:23:15.600
in America
00:23:16.100
you ultimately have to tell
00:23:17.120
the story of America
00:23:18.180
but they don't want to have
00:23:19.280
that conversation or story
00:23:20.360
and so they have to try
00:23:21.020
to carve out their own
00:23:21.940
whether it's in mythology
00:23:23.420
national anthems
00:23:24.760
independence days
00:23:26.000
it's just completely nonsensical
00:23:27.540
yeah that
00:23:28.440
because there's something
00:23:29.840
to myths
00:23:30.680
like I'm not anti-myth
00:23:32.320
you want the myth
00:23:33.900
to be related to reality
00:23:35.840
but mythos creates
00:23:37.580
a whole picture
00:23:38.340
and a civic program
00:23:40.780
you know building on that
00:23:41.960
but if the myth is a lie
00:23:44.560
then you're going to have
00:23:46.360
downstream negative effects
00:23:47.560
of that
00:23:47.920
yeah
00:23:48.560
so do you
00:23:49.220
it's very tricky
00:23:50.920
well I guess it's similar
00:23:52.800
to how
00:23:53.380
one of the great black figures
00:23:55.080
in American history
00:23:55.680
is Booker Washington
00:23:56.580
Booker Tagliaferro
00:23:58.140
good Italian name
00:23:58.920
Washington
00:23:59.380
who had this
00:24:01.260
radically different program
00:24:02.700
for black achievement
00:24:03.680
in America
00:24:04.120
than someone like
00:24:04.880
a W.E.B. Du Bois
00:24:05.880
and all the other socialists
00:24:08.060
and people who said
00:24:08.580
no we just need
00:24:09.020
political revolution now
00:24:10.260
Booker Washington says
00:24:11.540
no we actually
00:24:12.160
we kind of have to build
00:24:13.560
material tangible
00:24:15.740
wealth and improvement
00:24:18.280
and institutions
00:24:19.120
and that's how black people
00:24:20.300
are going to achieve in America
00:24:21.100
sure
00:24:21.400
and then the socialists said
00:24:22.300
no no no
00:24:22.620
we just need to demand
00:24:23.540
more regulations
00:24:24.360
and laws and stuff
00:24:25.140
and Booker Washington
00:24:27.200
is entirely written out
00:24:28.540
of the official narrative
00:24:30.520
of black history
00:24:31.240
where he's not written out
00:24:32.560
he's condemned
00:24:33.720
he's sort of mocked
00:24:35.180
you know
00:24:35.460
yeah
00:24:36.260
yeah they call them
00:24:37.000
race traitors
00:24:37.900
Uncle Tom
00:24:38.560
yeah
00:24:38.800
what have you
00:24:39.380
so
00:24:40.420
I think it's anti-Italian
00:24:41.640
discrimination
00:24:42.240
because Italia Faro
00:24:43.060
because you're so close
00:24:43.700
oh
00:24:43.920
I was going to say
00:24:44.820
because you're so close
00:24:45.540
because we're the black people
00:24:47.220
of Europe
00:24:47.420
yeah yeah yeah
00:24:47.960
right
00:24:48.180
okay
00:24:48.440
I'm up
00:24:49.600
cleared answer
00:24:50.500
there is no conservative
00:24:53.060
civil war
00:24:53.820
it's just that half
00:24:55.700
the supposedly based
00:24:56.920
commentators out there
00:24:58.100
were never actually
00:24:59.100
conservatives to begin with
00:25:00.980
what's your answer
00:25:04.000
did you mark
00:25:07.220
not yet
00:25:07.880
your answer is going to be
00:25:09.360
yes
00:25:12.080
yes
00:25:13.080
that's correct
00:25:13.460
that is correct
00:25:14.320
yeah
00:25:14.580
no that is correct
00:25:15.800
are we spilling tea here
00:25:17.780
or no you're speaking generally
00:25:18.840
well you know
00:25:19.620
as much as I would like
00:25:20.440
to name names
00:25:21.180
there is
00:25:21.720
you call them the usual suspects
00:25:23.060
you can name names
00:25:24.060
the thing is
00:25:24.540
they want that
00:25:25.700
because it's drama to them
00:25:27.000
it's content
00:25:27.620
it's all that
00:25:28.360
it is less about
00:25:29.200
you know
00:25:29.400
embarking from
00:25:30.140
first principles
00:25:30.820
and actually having a discussion
00:25:31.880
about how the world
00:25:32.520
ought to be
00:25:33.080
I call these people
00:25:34.280
sometimes maybe reciprocal
00:25:35.480
where you know
00:25:36.560
you'll have like
00:25:37.280
if Trump says
00:25:38.220
we have to do 110 degrees
00:25:39.520
they say no
00:25:40.140
we actually have to do 70
00:25:41.340
or if Trump says
00:25:42.220
we have to do
00:25:42.880
you know
00:25:43.260
20 degrees
00:25:43.920
they'll say no
00:25:44.340
we actually have to do
00:25:44.920
like 160
00:25:45.400
so there is no answer
00:25:46.840
that could ever
00:25:47.300
satisfy these people
00:25:48.340
it is always simply
00:25:49.180
how can I be contrarian
00:25:50.440
how can I be edgy
00:25:51.420
and anything that
00:25:52.320
Donald Trump does
00:25:53.140
they will pretend
00:25:53.920
that they were denying
00:25:54.660
that it ever could have happened
00:25:55.920
and then when it does happen
00:25:56.980
they say
00:25:57.360
well this is insufficient
00:25:58.260
and again
00:25:59.120
it's all just like
00:25:59.760
vanity for them
00:26:00.420
it is to say
00:26:00.960
nobody is holier than me
00:26:02.480
I am the most based
00:26:03.440
and red-pilled person ever
00:26:04.380
because I want this to happen
00:26:05.640
they're playing with action figures
00:26:07.100
that's all it is
00:26:07.760
like if I were in charge
00:26:08.580
I would do this
00:26:09.300
and it's like
00:26:09.840
that's cool I guess
00:26:11.180
I can see why that's entertaining
00:26:12.280
and maybe even funny
00:26:13.140
but I am trying to move the ball
00:26:15.160
down the field
00:26:15.800
so that I no longer
00:26:16.540
have to worry so much
00:26:17.460
about the state of my country
00:26:18.480
and so I just
00:26:19.360
I don't have an appetite
00:26:20.260
for this kind of stuff
00:26:21.100
I don't have patience
00:26:21.800
for this kind of stuff
00:26:22.580
and you notice too
00:26:23.420
the left is very hell-bent
00:26:25.280
on assuring everybody
00:26:26.260
that this is in fact happening
00:26:27.760
the New York Times
00:26:28.640
writes about it
00:26:29.280
the Atlantic writes about it
00:26:30.280
they want everybody to say
00:26:31.380
hey there's this
00:26:32.260
MAGA civil war
00:26:33.040
I know how you're demoralized
00:26:34.400
and on suicide watch
00:26:35.300
because you're losing
00:26:35.940
so profoundly
00:26:36.680
however
00:26:37.100
things aren't looking so good
00:26:38.420
in that camp
00:26:38.960
that by all measures
00:26:39.620
appears to be winning
00:26:40.360
they're having a civil war
00:26:41.900
and of course
00:26:42.480
these people love that
00:26:43.260
because they're like
00:26:43.720
see look we're effective
00:26:44.660
we have influence
00:26:45.340
you know people in the White House
00:26:46.800
I know
00:26:47.300
they are the laughing stock
00:26:49.080
they joke about
00:26:50.080
there is no civil war
00:26:51.300
beyond what you're seeing online
00:26:52.540
everything is going swimmingly
00:26:54.220
so do not blackpill
00:26:55.360
do not be disheartened by this
00:26:56.960
so is there a civil war
00:26:58.580
in the sense that
00:26:59.140
it is personally annoying
00:27:00.220
to me and my colleagues
00:27:01.280
of course
00:27:01.840
however
00:27:02.140
I'm not a selfish guy
00:27:03.200
big picture
00:27:04.140
bird's eye
00:27:04.720
I think we're doing very well
00:27:06.240
and this is all just nonsense
00:27:07.240
it's an
00:27:07.620
the people who run the psyops
00:27:09.300
the people who are in charge
00:27:10.660
of doing these
00:27:11.180
they make very handsome
00:27:12.280
they did not just go away
00:27:13.740
after Trump took office
00:27:14.900
they relocated
00:27:15.780
and they re-strategized
00:27:16.820
and so that's all this is
00:27:18.080
they spent five seconds
00:27:19.540
trying to get Harry Sisson
00:27:20.900
to get young men
00:27:21.920
to stop voting
00:27:22.620
for Republicans
00:27:23.620
and come back to Democrats
00:27:24.460
that clearly didn't work
00:27:25.600
now they're trying to appeal
00:27:26.660
to this sort of like
00:27:27.500
based
00:27:28.700
normal streamer class
00:27:30.380
where it's like
00:27:30.900
hey you've got this guy
00:27:31.720
he's really red-pilled
00:27:32.840
because he's saying
00:27:33.440
all these memes
00:27:33.960
that were funny
00:27:34.440
like ten years ago
00:27:35.160
but he's saying them now
00:27:36.000
but also
00:27:36.640
he thinks it's really cool
00:27:37.740
to not vote for Trump
00:27:38.880
it's like
00:27:39.560
I can see what's happening here
00:27:42.060
he's so based
00:27:42.660
that he hates Trump
00:27:44.000
and Vance
00:27:45.040
and the entire White House
00:27:47.340
and all the Republican senators
00:27:48.640
and frequently allies with
00:27:50.900
and cozies up to Democrats
00:27:52.300
yeah
00:27:52.740
like exclusively actually
00:27:53.900
and endorses Democrat candidates
00:27:55.320
so like
00:27:55.780
can we call a duck a duck here
00:27:57.400
I mean
00:27:57.720
it is behaving like so
00:27:59.100
and that's the thing
00:27:59.920
you know
00:28:00.080
if you're a Democrat
00:28:00.800
and you do have an IQ
00:28:01.920
above like 115
00:28:02.920
which
00:28:03.380
let's just concede
00:28:04.780
that that is a possibility here
00:28:06.040
you're not going to get young guys
00:28:07.980
to stop voting for Trump
00:28:09.360
by 40 points
00:28:10.080
you're not going to make that swing
00:28:11.400
undone
00:28:12.400
by simply saying
00:28:13.540
we need to do
00:28:14.080
gay race communism better
00:28:15.280
and put Harry Sisson's face on it
00:28:16.840
but what you can do
00:28:18.020
if your end goal
00:28:18.680
is not so much ideological
00:28:19.700
but just simply
00:28:20.660
making them disengage
00:28:21.860
from the political process
00:28:22.880
you can say
00:28:23.880
hey you know what
00:28:25.000
I know you're not going to
00:28:26.020
stop voting for Trump
00:28:26.900
because you're going to sign up
00:28:27.800
to you know
00:28:28.360
Newsom or Kamala or whatever
00:28:29.660
but maybe
00:28:30.600
we can get you to say
00:28:31.760
I'm actually too based for Trump
00:28:33.400
I'm too based to vote
00:28:34.260
and so
00:28:34.680
I'm not going to vote anymore
00:28:35.420
you know
00:28:36.640
the reason that I wouldn't
00:28:37.980
if the question had been asked of me
00:28:39.440
my hold up would be
00:28:41.600
there's no conservative civil war
00:28:43.500
I basically agree with that
00:28:44.840
it's just
00:28:46.040
that half the supposedly based commentators
00:28:47.880
were never actually conservatives
00:28:48.780
the just is what gives me pause
00:28:50.620
because I think
00:28:51.260
there are actually
00:28:52.060
nuances here
00:28:54.000
within this class
00:28:55.100
you think of guys like
00:28:56.660
Dave Smith
00:28:57.620
who I've been on panels
00:28:59.300
and things with
00:28:59.860
or guys like Glenn Greenwald
00:29:01.340
who I've been on panels with
00:29:02.180
who I actually personally
00:29:03.400
have gotten along with
00:29:04.620
I you know
00:29:05.080
I don't really have a personal issue
00:29:06.500
with those guys
00:29:07.080
but you think
00:29:08.100
all right Dave Smith
00:29:08.700
is a libertarian
00:29:09.800
he's not a conservative
00:29:11.340
and he's a libertarian
00:29:12.400
and so the libertarians
00:29:13.580
are like the libs of the right
00:29:14.820
they're sometimes on the right
00:29:15.700
but they often are with the left
00:29:16.880
a guy like Glenn Greenwald
00:29:18.240
he is a man of the left
00:29:19.260
he is thoroughly a man of the left
00:29:20.660
he just contradicts the left
00:29:22.940
in some crucial moments
00:29:24.240
so great
00:29:25.480
I'm happy to have another vote
00:29:26.540
or people you know
00:29:27.460
trying to support us
00:29:28.120
but that's not reliable anyway
00:29:30.040
that's one group
00:29:31.120
guys who really are not
00:29:32.280
particularly conservative
00:29:33.200
who sometimes they're with us
00:29:35.760
but sometimes they'll revert
00:29:36.980
and not be
00:29:37.520
then I think of someone
00:29:39.160
like Megyn Kelly
00:29:39.800
I really like Megyn
00:29:41.180
Megyn was much more liberal
00:29:43.480
and on issues like LGBT
00:29:45.680
or you know
00:29:46.440
her views on trans
00:29:48.080
have changed
00:29:48.660
as more information's come in
00:29:49.740
so I think she has sincerely
00:29:51.560
moved more to the right
00:29:53.160
over the years
00:29:53.840
which is different
00:29:54.940
from the guys
00:29:55.480
who just have ideological views
00:29:56.960
that are kind of weird
00:29:57.680
that sometimes are with us
00:29:58.540
and sometimes are not
00:29:59.520
but then there's the class
00:30:02.160
of the online conservatives
00:30:03.260
where they say
00:30:04.560
there's this conservative civil war
00:30:06.600
but it's really
00:30:08.240
it's just a product
00:30:09.880
of the babbling class
00:30:11.360
it's not
00:30:12.360
I mean we have never had
00:30:13.840
a more unified conservative movement
00:30:15.500
at the level of practical politics
00:30:16.940
where you have Trump
00:30:17.920
has really unified this
00:30:19.060
Vance as the heir apparent
00:30:20.640
is very very strong
00:30:21.860
the clearest potential rival
00:30:24.200
to Vance
00:30:24.840
as the heir apparent
00:30:25.840
is Marco Rubio
00:30:26.800
and he said
00:30:27.380
they're all on the same team
00:30:29.060
you know Rubio
00:30:29.780
has essentially endorsed Vance
00:30:31.600
Trump has endorsed
00:30:32.680
both of them as a ticket
00:30:33.820
there's this unbelievable degree
00:30:36.020
of practical unity
00:30:37.020
from very very serious guys
00:30:38.680
yes
00:30:39.040
I saw this
00:30:40.900
you know
00:30:41.320
the vice president
00:30:42.120
was very close
00:30:42.940
with Charlie Kirk
00:30:43.660
a buddy
00:30:44.960
you know
00:30:45.380
and something I always admired
00:30:47.480
with Charlie
00:30:48.060
and I was friends with Charlie
00:30:49.060
for a very long time
00:30:49.880
he was a good debater
00:30:52.020
yes
00:30:52.640
he was a great fundraiser
00:30:54.560
yes
00:30:54.940
he was a good
00:30:55.540
great operator politically
00:30:57.240
but he had a coalitional sense
00:31:00.340
that was second to none
00:31:01.140
he was better at it
00:31:01.740
than Trump actually
00:31:02.400
yeah
00:31:02.760
and with Charlie
00:31:03.540
he knew how to bring in people
00:31:05.480
who kind of hate each other
00:31:06.480
but they would get along
00:31:07.780
for a common purpose
00:31:08.820
and he knew who to exclude
00:31:10.500
and he did exclude some people
00:31:12.120
and he was very practical about it
00:31:14.240
yeah
00:31:14.520
and so a lot of the attacks
00:31:15.920
on Charlie
00:31:16.620
or now you know
00:31:18.300
attacks on
00:31:19.160
TPSA
00:31:20.760
his family
00:31:21.220
but those
00:31:22.000
some of those attacks
00:31:23.220
existed before Charlie
00:31:24.280
was killed
00:31:24.760
and
00:31:25.740
a lot of times
00:31:27.060
it was just people
00:31:27.740
who were excluded
00:31:28.460
from TPSA
00:31:29.680
it was people
00:31:30.240
who Charlie said
00:31:30.800
sorry you're not on the team
00:31:31.880
and you think
00:31:32.540
okay well
00:31:32.900
yeah that's always existed
00:31:34.480
would you call that
00:31:35.580
a conservative civil war
00:31:37.220
sour grapes maybe
00:31:39.100
yeah I don't know
00:31:39.720
it's just
00:31:40.060
that's just
00:31:40.860
that's kind of like
00:31:41.620
a meta political issue
00:31:42.880
that's like guys
00:31:43.820
fighting over
00:31:44.900
the actual
00:31:45.680
but when you get to
00:31:47.080
issues
00:31:47.620
immigration
00:31:48.400
even the economy
00:31:50.220
certainly the social issues
00:31:51.880
trans abortionist
00:31:52.900
they're all totally
00:31:54.780
the conservatives
00:31:56.040
are united
00:31:57.060
and then when you get
00:31:58.200
to the candidates
00:31:58.900
Trump
00:32:00.140
Vance
00:32:01.580
Vance and Rubio
00:32:02.780
you know kind of
00:32:03.220
working as a team
00:32:04.040
I see more unity
00:32:07.200
than I've actually
00:32:08.140
ever seen in my life
00:32:09.560
on the right
00:32:10.180
which is why they have
00:32:11.320
to try so
00:32:12.180
consistently
00:32:13.220
to make you believe
00:32:14.020
the opposite
00:32:14.520
because obviously
00:32:15.200
they thrive in situations
00:32:16.320
where we're not unified
00:32:17.260
they're extremely
00:32:18.160
on the back foot
00:32:18.800
right now
00:32:19.040
so much that
00:32:19.500
Barack Obama
00:32:20.140
and Hillary Clinton
00:32:20.740
are being shopped around
00:32:21.580
to talk about
00:32:22.120
moderating their
00:32:22.800
immigration plan
00:32:23.460
which of course
00:32:24.140
they're not going to do
00:32:24.860
but that was our thing
00:32:26.600
for the last 10 years
00:32:27.560
before Trump
00:32:28.180
in the latter half
00:32:28.860
of the Obama administration
00:32:29.700
it was the conservative
00:32:30.780
media's job to say
00:32:31.900
why can't we just
00:32:32.700
talk it out
00:32:33.200
which I agree
00:32:34.280
with open dialogue
00:32:34.940
however that is not
00:32:35.740
language of strength
00:32:36.560
that is language of
00:32:37.260
please just like
00:32:37.820
don't kill me
00:32:38.360
let's maybe
00:32:38.860
and what they're saying
00:32:39.660
now
00:32:39.920
all these Democrats
00:32:40.600
are saying
00:32:40.860
you know maybe
00:32:41.260
we've gone a little
00:32:41.740
far
00:32:41.980
and we need to moderate
00:32:42.540
what they're saying
00:32:43.760
in the same breath
00:32:44.280
is Virginia
00:32:45.480
is the model
00:32:46.100
yeah
00:32:46.600
Virginia in the recent
00:32:47.720
election
00:32:48.020
Spanberger wins
00:32:48.920
running as a moderate
00:32:50.680
the minute she gets
00:32:52.340
into office
00:32:52.900
she passes
00:32:53.940
one of the most
00:32:54.580
or initiates
00:32:55.400
one of the most
00:32:55.840
radical platforms
00:32:57.100
we've seen in any state
00:32:58.120
where she's saying
00:32:59.260
we're going to
00:33:00.220
stop cooperating
00:33:01.040
with ICE
00:33:01.700
we're going to
00:33:02.460
give voting rights
00:33:03.660
to felons
00:33:04.240
we're going
00:33:04.660
soft on crime
00:33:05.720
just this
00:33:06.480
and so the model
00:33:08.060
for them clearly
00:33:08.700
is let's talk
00:33:09.680
in a more moderate way
00:33:10.680
but let's keep up
00:33:11.900
the gay race communism
00:33:12.960
let's keep up
00:33:13.640
the open borders
00:33:14.660
radical stuff
00:33:15.460
I don't know
00:33:16.380
that that plays
00:33:17.620
well that's because
00:33:18.260
they understand
00:33:19.040
how media works
00:33:20.100
and they understand
00:33:20.700
that most people's
00:33:21.400
experience with the news
00:33:22.660
and what is happening
00:33:23.460
is going to be based on
00:33:24.520
words coming out
00:33:25.420
of people's mouths
00:33:26.060
and so if they see
00:33:26.860
their political class
00:33:27.740
saying no we're going
00:33:28.700
to moderate
00:33:29.060
that may bring back
00:33:30.380
some of the Dems
00:33:31.080
who have been a little
00:33:31.640
bit wary
00:33:32.320
seeing where the country
00:33:33.120
is going
00:33:33.440
and you see the same
00:33:34.260
thing on the right
00:33:34.760
where most people
00:33:35.340
are experiencing
00:33:36.100
what is happening
00:33:37.100
based on if Trump
00:33:38.040
says something
00:33:38.700
and so if Trump says
00:33:39.860
no we're not going
00:33:40.680
to go after the people
00:33:41.900
who are here
00:33:42.280
just illegally
00:33:42.980
it's just the hard
00:33:43.600
criminals
00:33:43.960
that's probably good
00:33:45.360
messaging in the sense
00:33:46.320
that it's the moderates
00:33:47.120
who are maybe not in love
00:33:48.180
with seeing like
00:33:48.920
the mass deportations
00:33:49.900
they can say
00:33:50.340
oh okay
00:33:50.860
well Trump says this
00:33:51.940
I agree with that
00:33:52.620
they go about their day
00:33:53.720
we as people
00:33:54.620
who pay attention
00:33:55.180
to this stuff
00:33:55.620
understand it's a little
00:33:56.400
bit different
00:33:56.860
obviously we have
00:33:57.720
patriots in charge of that
00:33:58.780
but for some reason
00:34:00.020
the people who
00:34:00.480
supposedly know
00:34:01.080
how the world works
00:34:01.700
better than you or I
00:34:02.560
are seeing those words
00:34:03.720
come out of Trump's mouth
00:34:04.500
seeing that they don't
00:34:05.320
square with what is
00:34:06.100
actually happening
00:34:06.780
and instead of saying
00:34:07.740
okay maybe I should
00:34:08.440
align myself better
00:34:09.280
with reality
00:34:09.780
they're saying actually
00:34:10.560
Trump's words
00:34:11.740
out of his mouth
00:34:12.380
are what is really happening
00:34:13.420
and what is happening
00:34:14.340
on the ground
00:34:14.780
is not what's happening
00:34:15.520
ignore what's really happening
00:34:16.600
and the liberals
00:34:17.100
freaking out about
00:34:17.840
what is happening
00:34:18.320
is also not happening
00:34:19.500
it's like
00:34:20.120
what are we doing
00:34:21.180
what are we doing
00:34:21.960
I have been advocating
00:34:22.840
for a real form
00:34:23.860
of remigration
00:34:24.640
which is getting
00:34:25.780
these people
00:34:26.300
out of politics
00:34:27.040
I want them to go back
00:34:28.000
to sports betting
00:34:28.740
and streaming services
00:34:29.980
remigration for the pundits
00:34:31.080
literally
00:34:31.560
like I feel badly for them
00:34:33.420
and it's my
00:34:33.820
it's my beautiful
00:34:34.440
Christian heart
00:34:35.160
where I see that
00:34:35.740
they're just walking
00:34:36.340
into walls all the time
00:34:37.400
they are frustrated
00:34:38.180
and confused
00:34:38.900
by what is going on
00:34:39.900
these are not people
00:34:40.960
who are meant to
00:34:41.600
pay attention to politics
00:34:42.760
these are people
00:34:43.300
who are meant to be
00:34:43.940
on streaming services
00:34:44.820
playing video games
00:34:45.700
sports betting
00:34:46.540
yeah
00:34:46.900
I feel like there are
00:34:48.220
these animals
00:34:48.720
who have wandered out
00:34:49.360
of their natural habitat
00:34:50.260
and I want to return them home
00:34:51.380
because it's not
00:34:52.140
it's cruel to them
00:34:53.160
it's not fair to them
00:34:54.520
to have them
00:34:55.320
send them back
00:34:56.300
to the Bukele prison camp
00:34:58.220
of commentary
00:34:58.900
that's right
00:34:59.440
yes
00:34:59.820
that's pretty smart
00:35:00.560
you're up
00:35:00.960
I clear
00:35:01.720
all right
00:35:03.000
should banning porn
00:35:05.980
should banning porn
00:35:06.000
be a higher priority
00:35:07.020
than deporting the illegals
00:35:08.700
correct
00:35:14.100
why
00:35:15.560
tell me why
00:35:16.440
why shouldn't
00:35:17.060
why did I say that
00:35:17.880
yes
00:35:18.200
because you're a smart guy
00:35:19.440
but it's a big issue
00:35:21.100
you know
00:35:21.580
to give the
00:35:23.000
porn point
00:35:24.460
it's due
00:35:24.940
you can't have a good country
00:35:27.400
if you don't have people
00:35:28.540
practicing virtue
00:35:29.340
the fact that
00:35:30.940
you have
00:35:31.600
most American men
00:35:33.400
and a lot of women
00:35:34.960
a growing number of women
00:35:35.820
in a perpetual state
00:35:37.260
of grave mortal sin
00:35:38.240
in a sin
00:35:39.840
that is particularly
00:35:40.960
inclined toward despair
00:35:42.420
lust is one of the chief sins
00:35:43.840
that inclines us
00:35:44.500
toward despair
00:35:45.060
that has all sorts
00:35:46.320
of negative effects
00:35:47.000
on relationships
00:35:47.860
and marriage
00:35:48.640
and having kids
00:35:49.260
and all this stuff
00:35:50.260
that's a
00:35:51.780
that is a grave problem
00:35:53.620
so why is the immigration issue
00:35:55.560
even more urgent
00:35:56.440
well because
00:35:57.920
I think that all other issues
00:35:59.200
are downstream
00:35:59.760
from the immigration issue
00:36:01.040
frankly even
00:36:02.040
I made this comment recently
00:36:03.220
when we were taping an episode
00:36:04.260
and my producer advised me
00:36:05.380
that we should cut it
00:36:06.120
I was basically
00:36:07.140
I was getting into
00:36:08.060
the
00:36:08.340
the implications
00:36:09.860
of
00:36:10.700
immigration
00:36:12.440
on actually
00:36:13.320
like the pornography industry
00:36:14.520
because
00:36:14.920
you're seeing these weird trends
00:36:16.660
where
00:36:17.020
the type
00:36:18.080
and like the categories
00:36:19.140
that are being produced
00:36:19.820
are actually being produced
00:36:20.900
such
00:36:21.260
that it is catering
00:36:22.540
to these mass
00:36:23.200
third world audiences
00:36:24.140
and so I'll see these
00:36:25.300
like white Catholic guys
00:36:26.380
who are like
00:36:26.800
you know
00:36:27.300
it's these evil
00:36:28.240
pornography producers
00:36:29.120
who are trying to like
00:36:29.900
make porn depicting
00:36:30.680
like incest
00:36:31.560
and all this other weird stuff
00:36:32.540
whereas you know
00:36:33.360
you think about like
00:36:34.240
the stereotypes of
00:36:35.240
I don't know
00:36:35.640
the 70s
00:36:36.280
and it's on like VHS
00:36:37.020
and it's like
00:36:37.520
oh the
00:36:37.900
the secretary
00:36:39.080
like very like
00:36:40.120
vanilla stuff
00:36:40.940
and they think
00:36:42.140
the guy shows up
00:36:42.900
in some grainy
00:36:43.780
and so they look at this
00:36:45.640
and they're like
00:36:46.000
they're trying to trick me
00:36:47.100
into being sexually attracted
00:36:48.300
to my family members
00:36:49.200
the actual thing
00:36:50.240
that's going on there
00:36:50.960
is you are getting
00:36:51.520
internet access
00:36:52.160
in places that have
00:36:52.920
never had it before
00:36:53.700
and there are appetites
00:36:54.840
in the third world
00:36:55.440
for things like incest
00:36:56.360
quite regularly
00:36:56.960
which people don't want
00:36:57.700
to have that conversation
00:36:58.520
but you know
00:36:59.160
you want to talk about
00:36:59.740
the Epstein files
00:37:00.480
and child abuse
00:37:01.100
it happens every single day
00:37:02.400
in this country
00:37:02.860
in these illegal alien communities
00:37:04.440
many of these immigrant communities
00:37:05.600
you talk to Hispanics
00:37:06.860
you talk to African
00:37:07.580
this is commonplace
00:37:08.740
not allowed to have sleepovers
00:37:09.880
they all have some odd experience
00:37:11.240
with a relative
00:37:11.720
it happens all the time
00:37:13.060
not a peep from the podcast class
00:37:14.920
which has so much to say
00:37:15.960
about Epstein and child abuse
00:37:17.180
not a peep
00:37:17.920
because the solution to that
00:37:18.860
is obvious
00:37:19.300
we need to get these people
00:37:20.300
out of our country
00:37:20.940
well a lot of those people
00:37:22.020
are also watching their content
00:37:23.200
so they don't want to step on toes
00:37:24.320
what can I do instead
00:37:25.460
say the most popular thing
00:37:26.940
in the world
00:37:27.400
Trump is bad
00:37:28.440
because he's enabling
00:37:29.900
child abuse or something
00:37:30.860
it's like give me a break
00:37:31.660
so do I think this is bad
00:37:33.220
obviously this question was asked
00:37:34.660
because I've spent so much time
00:37:35.700
covering why pornography
00:37:36.620
is a cancer within society
00:37:38.260
however
00:37:38.880
I think that first of all
00:37:40.180
practically speaking
00:37:40.940
we wouldn't have the capital
00:37:41.980
to address that issue
00:37:43.380
were it not for us
00:37:44.140
shutting down immigration
00:37:45.000
in general
00:37:45.480
and also
00:37:45.900
I really do believe
00:37:47.300
that every issue
00:37:48.340
that we discuss
00:37:49.400
can in some way
00:37:50.640
be informed by
00:37:51.460
what is going on
00:37:52.140
with immigration policy
00:37:53.060
even things that may surprise you
00:37:54.200
like you know
00:37:55.020
how the pornography industry
00:37:56.900
has sort of adjusted itself
00:37:58.020
to cater to
00:37:58.560
very disgusting
00:37:59.300
third world practices
00:38:00.300
which otherwise
00:38:01.100
would be completely alien
00:38:02.260
in civilization
00:38:03.260
and it would probably
00:38:03.960
even get you killed
00:38:04.620
yeah there's something
00:38:05.800
that's a good way to put it
00:38:07.180
I was thinking of it
00:38:08.240
more basically
00:38:09.320
or tangibly
00:38:09.860
which is just
00:38:10.660
your country
00:38:12.060
is defined chiefly
00:38:13.320
by the people in it
00:38:14.780
so you know
00:38:16.140
abstract ideas are great
00:38:17.480
but you need people
00:38:18.220
to embody those ideas
00:38:19.480
and at a basic level
00:38:21.260
if you can't control
00:38:22.300
who comes in and out
00:38:23.060
of your country
00:38:23.660
you have a breakdown
00:38:25.020
of law and order
00:38:26.660
and the political community
00:38:27.940
that is so grievous
00:38:29.320
that it demands
00:38:30.700
attention first
00:38:31.700
and there are a lot
00:38:32.560
of downstream effects
00:38:33.360
of that totally
00:38:34.260
also because
00:38:35.980
over the course
00:38:37.180
of American history
00:38:37.900
we've been tougher
00:38:38.660
and less tough
00:38:39.460
on sins of the flesh
00:38:40.580
you know
00:38:41.420
even St. Thomas Aquinas
00:38:43.440
makes a good argument
00:38:44.500
as to why you might not
00:38:45.300
want to ban prostitution
00:38:46.600
entirely immediately
00:38:47.540
because the society
00:38:49.160
is at different degrees
00:38:49.940
of virtue
00:38:50.420
so if you try
00:38:52.020
the law as a teacher
00:38:52.840
you want to make
00:38:53.260
the population more virtuous
00:38:54.180
but if you try to go
00:38:55.140
too fast
00:38:55.700
you know
00:38:56.480
too high too fast
00:38:57.500
you might snap the people
00:38:58.820
they might end up worse
00:38:59.720
than they were
00:39:00.020
in the first place
00:39:00.600
this is why you have
00:39:01.520
red light districts
00:39:02.340
in different places
00:39:04.080
pornography is that
00:39:06.140
writ large
00:39:06.900
to the social capital point
00:39:08.960
immigration
00:39:10.140
the vast majority
00:39:11.260
of Americans
00:39:11.720
want to drastically
00:39:13.440
reduce it
00:39:13.980
and get rid of the illegals
00:39:14.960
that's how Trump
00:39:15.880
won the popular vote
00:39:16.660
if you took a poll
00:39:18.800
of most Americans
00:39:19.700
I don't know
00:39:20.280
that you'd have
00:39:20.760
the vast majority
00:39:21.420
saying we should ban
00:39:22.480
all the porn immediately
00:39:23.420
I'd like to get to that point
00:39:25.420
at some point
00:39:25.800
but we're not quite there yet
00:39:27.140
so I agree
00:39:27.720
you've got to focus
00:39:28.660
on the tangible
00:39:29.600
first
00:39:30.480
the things that
00:39:31.140
most concretely
00:39:32.760
affect your political order
00:39:34.000
you want to do
00:39:36.240
a few things at once
00:39:37.280
but that's
00:39:38.020
I agree
00:39:38.580
that's the urgent issue
00:39:39.720
yeah
00:39:40.060
yeah you know
00:39:41.000
back to the
00:39:41.780
commentary class
00:39:43.120
using this as like
00:39:43.820
a vanity project
00:39:44.660
a lot of them
00:39:45.140
are very happy
00:39:45.780
to ignore
00:39:46.240
all of those
00:39:46.740
tangible issues
00:39:47.420
but they will get
00:39:47.940
in front of a microphone
00:39:48.620
and scream about
00:39:49.340
you know
00:39:49.540
the evils of porn
00:39:50.360
and why we must
00:39:50.820
ban it immediately
00:39:51.460
and it's like
00:39:51.900
again
00:39:52.520
are we playing
00:39:53.280
with action figures
00:39:54.060
or are we playing
00:39:54.960
the political game
00:39:55.740
and so it's not so simple
00:39:56.940
as waving a magic wand
00:39:57.980
unfortunately
00:39:58.520
you know what people
00:39:59.540
should do instead of
00:40:00.600
looking at porn
00:40:01.540
you know
00:40:01.980
in some recess
00:40:02.760
of their house
00:40:03.640
or apartment
00:40:04.060
they should go
00:40:05.340
and get into bed
00:40:06.160

00:40:06.720

I was with my wife

recently
00:40:16.000
we took a little trip
00:40:17.060
down to Florida
00:40:17.780
stayed at a hotel
00:40:19.020
that was fine
00:40:19.700
it wasn't a great hotel
00:40:20.600
and the mattress
00:40:21.840
it was not a great mattress
00:40:22.900
it was too small
00:40:23.660
and it was
00:40:24.200
it was
00:40:24.460
we were tossing and turning
00:40:25.500

I gotta catch up

I'm like
00:41:35.260
drink mogging
00:41:36.100
I don't know
00:41:36.960
that's what they said
00:41:37.600
sober maxing
00:41:38.660
it's cringe
00:41:39.360
they're like cringe millennials

who are trying to like
00:41:41.580
lingo max

because of

right now
00:41:51.720
we're getting into

the rapid fire round
00:41:53.300
three questions
00:41:54.400
thirty seconds
00:41:55.020
no time to outthink
00:41:55.960
each other
00:41:56.420
you ready?
00:41:57.780
mhm
00:41:57.960
wow
00:42:00.280
this is like
00:42:01.360
the most unbelievable
00:42:02.240
inadvertent
00:42:03.240
transition ever
00:42:05.100
does Gavin Newsom
00:42:07.020
per
00:42:07.940
Mr.
00:42:08.500
Clavicular
00:42:09.440
mog
00:42:10.140
J.D. Vance
00:42:10.780
no
00:42:12.200
well that was great
00:42:13.580
you gotta put your answer
00:42:14.520
in there
00:42:14.860
but I got that point
00:42:16.100
that's right
00:42:17.460
is it okay for grown men
00:42:19.540
to spend time
00:42:20.080
playing video games
00:42:20.980
you gotta clear your answer
00:42:22.780
and then give your other answer
00:42:23.520
you say yes
00:42:25.740
that's right
00:42:26.680
yeah it is
00:42:27.140
a little bit of time
00:42:28.100
in order to be the most
00:42:29.720
effective at delivering
00:42:30.440
our messages
00:42:30.920
as political commentators
00:42:31.920
should conservative commentators
00:42:33.080
all strive to looks max
00:42:34.320
in 2026
00:42:36.020
no
00:42:39.740
that's right
00:42:40.880
it was correct
00:42:41.520
yeah you should
00:42:42.300
I mean you should look appropriate
00:42:43.400
but you should not
00:42:44.160
you're not gonna hit yourself
00:42:44.780
in the face with a hammer
00:42:45.460
don't hit yourself
00:42:46.020
don't do math
00:42:46.760
don't hit yourself
00:42:47.340
in the head with a hammer
00:42:47.940
and don't
00:42:48.380
don't fall into vanity
00:42:50.040
because I actually
00:42:50.720
I enjoyed chatting
00:42:51.860
with our former guest
00:42:53.220
Mr. Ikeler
00:42:53.800
but he's gone very wrong
00:42:55.560
on a lot of
00:42:56.600
I mean he hits himself
00:42:57.500
in the head with a hammer
00:42:58.060
and the thing is
00:42:59.940
it falls into
00:43:00.900
a form of vanity
00:43:02.400
that becomes
00:43:03.340
like the right wing
00:43:04.620
version of trans
00:43:05.420
you know like a hyper real
00:43:06.600
version of masculinity
00:43:07.520
and like the
00:43:09.220
trans people
00:43:10.220
go into a
00:43:11.120
hyper real form
00:43:11.880
of femininity
00:43:12.480
and it's
00:43:13.300
it is gay
00:43:15.420
it is ultimately gay
00:43:16.780
like I'm not calling him gay
00:43:18.140
because he's a
00:43:19.500
he's a confused young guy
00:43:20.500
in many ways
00:43:21.400
but it
00:43:22.000
you shouldn't do it
00:43:23.880
yeah
00:43:24.120
no that's absolutely right
00:43:25.520
there are a lot of guys
00:43:26.480
who just want to
00:43:26.900
reverse engineer
00:43:27.700
the sort of outcome
00:43:28.960
and they
00:43:29.320
as an excuse
00:43:30.560
to not just like
00:43:31.260
go out there
00:43:31.780
and I don't know
00:43:32.420
talk to a girl
00:43:33.140
and be normal
00:43:33.740
they tell themselves
00:43:34.380
well first I have to
00:43:35.280
strike myself in the face
00:43:36.540
with a hammer
00:43:37.020
and I have to do
00:43:37.800
XYZ
00:43:38.280
do meth even
00:43:39.000
and then I will finally
00:43:40.400
maybe even get a nose job
00:43:41.460
and finally have the ability
00:43:42.580
to go out and talk to a girl
00:43:43.580
and then you know
00:43:44.560
these people
00:43:45.000
and they do all those steps
00:43:45.980
and then they actually
00:43:46.780
never do develop that
00:43:47.660
because the confidence
00:43:48.520
isn't there
00:43:49.080
you know they try to
00:43:50.060
supplement that
00:43:50.660
with all these bizarre rituals
00:43:51.940
and maybe it's even
00:43:52.660
entertaining watching people
00:43:53.700
destroy themselves on the internet
00:43:54.820
but it ultimately
00:43:56.000
does not achieve the end
00:43:57.100
which they would claim
00:43:57.800
that they are seeking
00:43:58.420
in the first place
00:43:59.080
so then how do you do it
00:43:59.800
how does a guy
00:44:00.380
because people say
00:44:01.180
how do I pick up a girl
00:44:02.040
and you know
00:44:03.920
worked out for me
00:44:04.580
and when I was single
00:44:05.280
I you know
00:44:06.040
I kind of enjoyed
00:44:06.780
talking to girls
00:44:07.360
and I
00:44:08.140
because I'm part Italian
00:44:10.320
I don't know what it is
00:44:11.040
but
00:44:11.500
I'm not some
00:44:13.020
hulking Adonis
00:44:13.860
what is it
00:44:14.880
well
00:44:15.460
women like a bit
00:44:17.000
of confidence
00:44:17.540
yeah
00:44:17.840
so then the guy says
00:44:18.920
how can I be confident
00:44:19.580
you say you got to
00:44:20.060
just be confident
00:44:20.780
and it's not a good answer
00:44:21.960
no you have to actually
00:44:22.820
be good at something
00:44:23.680
and that's the thing
00:44:24.720
is once you actually
00:44:25.480
find what you are good at
00:44:26.500
and you lean into that
00:44:27.180
you find a way to monetize it
00:44:28.280
you will develop a kind of
00:44:29.180
irrational self-confidence
00:44:30.360
which on paper women
00:44:31.320
will tell you they hate
00:44:32.120
they really don't
00:44:33.080
they actually enjoy that
00:44:33.960
they prefer it even
00:44:34.780
and so yeah
00:44:35.720
you can't just say
00:44:36.260
hey man just be confident
00:44:37.240
and then give yourself
00:44:37.900
a pep talk in the mirror
00:44:38.820
or something
00:44:39.180
you actually have to have
00:44:40.360
some kind of like
00:44:41.080
skill or ambition
00:44:42.180
or purpose
00:44:42.780
which makes you feel
00:44:43.940
like you are you know
00:44:44.560
making the right moves
00:44:45.580
and then all the other stuff
00:44:47.000
will sort of fall into place
00:44:48.280
naturally I think
00:44:49.100
but yeah
00:44:49.580
I'm not surprised that guys
00:44:50.740
who are you know
00:44:51.640
binge watching these kinds
00:44:52.880
of streamers
00:44:53.540
or doing nothing else
00:44:54.300
productive with their lives
00:44:55.200
or like scratching their heads
00:44:56.140
like why is this not working
00:44:56.960
why do I not feel
00:44:57.580
a sense of confidence
00:44:58.320
it's like
00:44:58.640
you haven't earned it
00:44:59.920
the other thing is
00:45:00.560
women don't actually
00:45:02.460
care about looks
00:45:03.260
that much
00:45:03.820
I'm not saying
00:45:04.260
like if they had
00:45:04.940
like some giga chat
00:45:05.780
or something
00:45:06.100
fat ugly guy
00:45:07.380
they would take
00:45:08.340
the giga chat
00:45:09.000
but they don't
00:45:10.300
they're not as visual
00:45:12.200
in their attractions
00:45:13.380
as men are
00:45:14.240
men are very visually attracted
00:45:16.140
for women
00:45:16.840
it's other stuff
00:45:17.460
that's why
00:45:18.080
like kind of
00:45:19.520
schlubby looking guys
00:45:20.980
if they're funny
00:45:22.280
or if they
00:45:23.000
I don't know
00:45:24.320
if they just have something
00:45:25.400
are
00:45:26.300
can
00:45:26.840
they can get the hot chick
00:45:28.940
much more
00:45:30.400
than the gal
00:45:31.680
in the other direction
00:45:32.460
yeah I have
00:45:33.240
I found like this photo
00:45:34.220
of this person
00:45:35.380
and I was like
00:45:36.040
I think she's beautiful
00:45:36.900
and then I kept scrolling
00:45:38.020
on the timeline
00:45:38.640
and I saw that this person
00:45:39.740
indicated they may
00:45:40.540
actually be trans
00:45:41.180
and I was like
00:45:41.540
oh no
00:45:42.040
wow
00:45:42.600
that makes you
00:45:43.840
gay
00:45:44.280
gay
00:45:44.700
accidentally gay
00:45:45.840
yeah by the transitive
00:45:47.020
property unfortunately
00:45:47.880
by the transitive property
00:45:48.900
yes
00:45:49.200
and you have no control
00:45:50.520
over that
00:45:50.960
I know
00:45:51.340
because she could be
00:45:52.780
Marilyn Monroe
00:45:53.900
but then
00:45:54.640
and you say
00:45:55.180
she's good looking
00:45:55.800
and then tomorrow
00:45:56.460
if she's trans
00:45:57.080
you're gay
00:45:57.600
I actually dated a girl
00:45:58.900
one time
00:45:59.500
who was liberal
00:46:01.240
and we got into it
00:46:02.020
about the trans stuff
00:46:02.840
and I told her what I thought
00:46:03.840
and she started laughing at me
00:46:04.980
and I was like
00:46:05.680
what's so funny
00:46:06.280
and she produced a photo
00:46:07.740
of herself as a toddler
00:46:09.440
and it looked exactly
00:46:10.800
like a little boy
00:46:11.580
and I have never genuinely
00:46:13.160
been more scared
00:46:13.720
in my life
00:46:14.100
I thought I was gonna have
00:46:14.520
to kill her
00:46:14.980
yeah
00:46:15.260
and then I demand
00:46:16.760
I was like
00:46:17.120
we're gonna go back
00:46:17.700
to your house
00:46:18.380
and we're going
00:46:19.320
to go through
00:46:20.140
old baby
00:46:20.720
I need to see
00:46:21.400
the evolution
00:46:21.920
of this Pokemon
00:46:22.560
like I need
00:46:23.120
yeah
00:46:23.420
and so she
00:46:24.540
sure enough
00:46:25.140
was a girl
00:46:26.260
which I was very happy
00:46:27.220
to find out
00:46:27.900
but that genuinely
00:46:29.360
scared me
00:46:29.900
you wouldn't have
00:46:30.880
to commit
00:46:31.440
a secular
00:46:33.100
liberal honor killing
00:46:33.960
that would be very bad
00:46:34.980
I'm very happy
00:46:35.800
about that
00:46:36.360
I will currently
00:46:37.800
die
00:46:38.440
never having
00:46:39.380
done anything gay
00:46:40.220
and never having
00:46:41.220
smoked marijuana
00:46:41.860
which itself
00:46:42.400
is maybe related
00:46:43.260
to being gay
00:46:43.920
yeah
00:46:44.460
you know
00:46:45.320
not even once
00:46:45.900
somehow I made it
00:46:47.460
out of Yale
00:46:47.920
without being a finook
00:46:49.020
but I puffed
00:46:51.320
on the devil's lettuce
00:46:52.020
yeah I mean
00:46:52.960
I get like
00:46:53.620
I don't think
00:46:54.040
I'm holier than now
00:46:54.900
it was just
00:46:55.840
an aversion I had
00:46:56.760
because I saw the culture
00:46:57.720
surrounding it
00:46:58.420
and I was like
00:46:58.740
this is great
00:46:59.440
yeah it doesn't
00:47:01.000
do anything for me
00:47:01.900
yeah
00:47:02.260
my speed round
00:47:03.340
all right
00:47:03.700
do gripers hate me
00:47:06.560
more than you
00:47:07.320
Michael Knowles
00:47:08.180
do they hate
00:47:10.400
John Doyle
00:47:10.900
more than me
00:47:11.420
that's right
00:47:11.860
for sure
00:47:14.760
for sure
00:47:15.320
they do
00:47:15.620
oh yeah
00:47:15.840
yeah
00:47:16.180
why
00:47:16.640
because I didn't
00:47:17.440
support Kanye West
00:47:18.220
for president
00:47:18.740
and they'll
00:47:19.540
they have like
00:47:20.120
dude it's funny
00:47:20.880
because they'll
00:47:21.200
confront me in person
00:47:22.120
and be like
00:47:22.480
why did you do this
00:47:23.240
to us
00:47:23.540
and I'm like
00:47:23.880
what
00:47:24.200
you said this
00:47:25.800
where
00:47:26.220
will you have
00:47:27.220
hostility
00:47:27.700
where
00:47:28.340
will you
00:47:29.380
and so that
00:47:29.860
that was like
00:47:30.240
I got confronted
00:47:31.040
at the TPUSA event
00:47:33.020
and this was the
00:47:33.520
interaction
00:47:33.960
the recent one
00:47:34.460
America Fest
00:47:34.980
they came up to me
00:47:35.980
this was filmed
00:47:36.580
and so they were
00:47:37.500
just like you know
00:47:38.120
trying to confront me
00:47:38.940
and own me
00:47:39.300
and I saw that
00:47:39.820
they were filming it
00:47:40.700
and so I just
00:47:41.080
kind of stood there
00:47:41.740
and eventually
00:47:42.460
they called my friend
00:47:43.200
Ritz Harted
00:47:43.620
which I did not
00:47:44.120
appreciate
00:47:44.480
so I said
00:47:44.960
hey don't call
00:47:45.420
what are you doing
00:47:46.160
we're at a dead man's
00:47:46.920
event right now
00:47:47.500
and you're trying
00:47:47.820
to bring up e-drama
00:47:48.700
and you don't even
00:47:49.240
have like an explanation
00:47:49.940
for it
00:47:50.460
this is absurd
00:47:51.520
and finally
00:47:52.580
after he
00:47:53.540
he said some comment
00:47:54.500
to me that was
00:47:55.020
to the effect of
00:47:55.680
like you know
00:47:56.620
have fun
00:47:57.280
like performing
00:47:59.320
an untoward
00:48:00.200
homosexual act
00:48:01.260
on a certain
00:48:01.880
right wing media
00:48:02.820
figure
00:48:03.300
whatever
00:48:03.820
and this was of course
00:48:05.760
referring to my
00:48:06.480
involvement now
00:48:06.980
with Blaze
00:48:07.340
and I allegedly
00:48:08.660
made a comment
00:48:09.280
to the effect of
00:48:10.240
yeah you're lucky
00:48:11.120
I'm no longer
00:48:11.640
independent
00:48:12.060
because if I were
00:48:12.700
I would break
00:48:13.160
your effing jaw
00:48:13.880
and I like took
00:48:14.940
a step towards him
00:48:15.640
and they immediately
00:48:16.120
scurry right
00:48:16.880
and so then they
00:48:17.340
of course post the clip
00:48:18.220
which I didn't think
00:48:18.720
they were going to do
00:48:19.220
I was like
00:48:19.560
you obviously got
00:48:20.320
mogged there
00:48:21.240
you came up
00:48:22.760
you had a big problem
00:48:23.700
I took one step
00:48:24.560
towards you
00:48:24.960
you scurried off
00:48:25.760
so like what's going on
00:48:27.300
but they still of course
00:48:28.020
because it's all about
00:48:28.740
e-drama and vanity
00:48:29.580
they post the clip
00:48:30.200
or whatever
00:48:30.480
so I've heard about
00:48:31.240
10 different versions
00:48:32.100
of the story
00:48:32.720
at this point
00:48:33.220
I've never addressed it
00:48:34.660
publicly because
00:48:35.260
I don't care about e-drama
00:48:36.580
I don't have an appetite
00:48:37.320
for it
00:48:37.800
but no it all stems
00:48:38.840
from that
00:48:39.300
I was standing by Trump
00:48:40.480
in 2022
00:48:41.100
when he was bleeding allies
00:48:42.360
these people
00:48:43.180
then as they are now
00:48:44.320
were saying
00:48:44.660
he's insufficiently conservative
00:48:45.840
he's hosting gay weddings
00:48:47.160
at Mar-a-Lago
00:48:47.800
we have to support
00:48:48.900
Kanye West for president
00:48:50.140
I said
00:48:51.060
I don't know about this
00:48:51.980
and then
00:48:52.640
I was in a group chat
00:48:53.700
I think on Instagram
00:48:54.420
with like a bunch of
00:48:55.240
right wing accounts
00:48:55.960
and I got scolded for this
00:48:58.040
and so I said
00:48:59.280
fair enough
00:49:01.040
good luck guys
00:49:02.400
and I left
00:49:03.200
and then the hit went out
00:49:05.020
and we're over three years
00:49:06.380
into that now
00:49:06.980
so
00:49:07.380
you know what the secret is
00:49:08.880
you've just hit on it
00:49:10.040
at the very end there
00:49:11.320
I think the way that I've avoided
00:49:13.260
some of this drama
00:49:14.760
is one
00:49:16.520
maybe I'm just not like hip enough
00:49:18.080
I don't know
00:49:18.500
maybe I'm a little
00:49:19.160
but you know the other thing
00:49:20.000
I don't ever text anybody back
00:49:21.840
yeah
00:49:22.260
I'm not in
00:49:23.000
I get added to all these groups
00:49:24.840
Signal
00:49:25.340
Instagram
00:49:26.340
I'm in all these GCs
00:49:28.340
you know
00:49:28.660
but I don't contribute
00:49:29.820
at all
00:49:30.420
almost ever
00:49:31.160
yeah
00:49:31.480
and which makes me
00:49:32.700
like a bad friend
00:49:33.760
and unresponsive
00:49:35.320
but then I get out of the drama
00:49:36.860
then no one's coming at me
00:49:38.300
because all the
00:49:38.840
you know like
00:49:39.740
they do this now
00:49:40.520
in right wing media
00:49:41.380
they just
00:49:41.880
everyone's just posting
00:49:42.940
everyone's texts all the time
00:49:44.000
yeah
00:49:44.140
ain't never gonna post mine
00:49:45.500
because I don't send them
00:49:46.340
they don't have them
00:49:46.580
that's it
00:49:47.060
I think about
00:49:47.680
they post their texts
00:49:48.320
it's gonna be a wall of texts
00:49:49.700
to me
00:49:50.460
that I don't respond to
00:49:51.520
and they'll call you a jerk
00:49:52.460
they'll say this guy
00:49:53.220
I think about this all the time
00:49:54.920
guilty
00:49:55.020
and you'll have to forgive me
00:49:56.240
for making a reference
00:49:57.000
to a Marvel movie
00:49:57.840
but it's the scene
00:49:59.700
in maybe one of the Avengers movies
00:50:01.100
where this like
00:50:02.000
female superhero
00:50:03.060
like spawns in front of Thanos
00:50:04.880
and she's like
00:50:05.580
you took everything from me
00:50:07.220
and he's like
00:50:07.620
I don't even know who you are
00:50:09.020
I feel like that
00:50:10.160
all the time
00:50:10.820
where I will hear
00:50:11.480
second, third hand
00:50:12.280
you know
00:50:12.520
hey this guy was saying
00:50:13.640
that you did blah blah blah
00:50:14.480
he's got a real problem with you
00:50:15.500
and I'm like
00:50:15.820
what is it
00:50:16.540
and it turns out to be like
00:50:17.600
three years ago
00:50:18.600
I accidentally didn't answer
00:50:19.680
like a Twitter DM
00:50:20.420
and this has just been like
00:50:21.740
accumulating and festering
00:50:22.980
and now he like
00:50:23.580
tries to get me canceled
00:50:24.280
from an event or something
00:50:25.200
and it's like
00:50:25.580
what are we doing
00:50:26.460
it is
00:50:27.060
High School Never Ends
00:50:28.020
by Bowling for Soup
00:50:28.840
I have read
00:50:29.520
thousands and thousands
00:50:30.700
and thousands of pages
00:50:31.700
of toilet paper books
00:50:32.640
that will be forgotten
00:50:33.320
by time
00:50:34.020
High School Never Ends
00:50:35.160
by Bowling for Soup
00:50:35.840
is the most profound
00:50:36.620
social commentary
00:50:37.360
possibly ever
00:50:38.160
it has informed so much
00:50:39.580
of how I navigate this space
00:50:40.880
that I would recommend
00:50:41.720
the viewers take a listen
00:50:43.140
because it's absolutely true
00:50:44.260
that's all it is
00:50:45.340
is High School
00:50:45.880
and there is an important thing
00:50:48.040
I mean it's not just
00:50:48.800
you want to avoid drama
00:50:49.880
like some of that too
00:50:50.780
but the other thing is
00:50:52.060
a lot of sin
00:50:53.940
and even just
00:50:55.480
even below the level of sin
00:50:57.280
just a lot of things
00:50:58.180
that get guys off their
00:50:59.240
path on the things
00:51:00.540
they should be doing
00:51:01.220
is distraction
00:51:02.300
there's so many distractions
00:51:04.380
there's so many allurements
00:51:05.600
in this world
00:51:06.140
and they can get you off track
00:51:07.580
and so it's not
00:51:08.400
this is my defense
00:51:09.100
of being a jerk
00:51:09.640
and not texting anyone back
00:51:10.500
but like you get
00:51:12.060
I can barely do
00:51:13.920
like three or four things
00:51:15.200
in a day
00:51:15.620
you've got to really
00:51:16.740
dig in
00:51:17.540
in this culture
00:51:18.060
where you have the
00:51:18.520
attention span of a fruit fly
00:51:19.640
you've got
00:51:20.320
and so when the phone
00:51:21.260
is bing bing bing bing
00:51:22.520
and you know
00:51:23.020
Sally said to Johnny
00:51:24.100
it's like
00:51:24.680
you kind of have to just
00:51:26.540
put it aside
00:51:28.160
that's my defense
00:51:29.200
of being a jerk
00:51:29.880
and not being meticulous
00:51:31.020
or anything
00:51:31.380
yeah
00:51:31.660
that's certainly very real
00:51:32.700
okay
00:51:33.380
okay
00:51:33.740
you're clearing
00:51:34.700
okay
00:51:35.000
there was some speed round
00:51:36.300
we're getting into
00:51:36.760
like a three hour discourse
00:51:37.940
on each question
00:51:38.580
should spouses have the login
00:51:40.220
for each other's
00:51:40.980
social media accounts
00:51:42.220
I said no
00:51:48.100
no
00:51:48.560
yeah
00:51:49.140
why does your wife
00:51:50.660
have social media accounts
00:51:51.480
she doesn't
00:51:52.100
yeah obviously
00:51:52.620
yeah
00:51:52.940
there was why
00:51:53.480
no you know
00:51:53.940
sweet little Lisa
00:51:54.840
she still has like lurker accounts
00:51:56.240
or sometimes she'll say
00:51:56.980
oh for Lent
00:51:57.580
I'm gonna give up this
00:51:58.300
or that
00:51:58.600
but no I don't
00:52:01.000
you know
00:52:01.360
to take the question
00:52:02.060
more head on
00:52:02.780
I don't want surveillance
00:52:05.040
on a husband and a wife
00:52:06.620
I don't
00:52:07.120
you know
00:52:07.560
some couples do find my friend
00:52:09.500
for their spouse
00:52:10.220
yeah
00:52:10.560
I don't need that
00:52:11.400
yeah
00:52:11.780
first of all
00:52:12.360
what am I doing
00:52:12.760
there are like three places I go
00:52:14.160
yeah
00:52:14.540
it's work
00:52:15.220
church
00:52:16.520
usually with my wife
00:52:17.640
and the cigar bar
00:52:18.720
that's so
00:52:19.220
you know
00:52:19.680
you can process of elimination
00:52:20.960
you basically figure out
00:52:21.880
where I am
00:52:22.220
yeah
00:52:22.480
but even if I'm traveling
00:52:23.240
for work or something like that
00:52:24.220
if you're checking your spouse's Instagram DMs
00:52:29.960
like 15 things have already gone wrong
00:52:33.680
that you should address
00:52:34.600
I don't like it
00:52:35.320
yeah
00:52:35.600
yeah and you know
00:52:36.920
people will try to avoid those baseline root issues
00:52:39.600
and try to solve the problem by
00:52:41.560
you know
00:52:41.880
oh I feel like I can trust you more
00:52:43.480
you can't
00:52:44.180
because now you have this thing in front of you
00:52:46.080
which you're going to continue indulging in
00:52:47.720
and it's just going to create this kind of impulse
00:52:49.160
to distrust them
00:52:50.380
or to be skeptical
00:52:51.160
yeah it's the prenup
00:52:52.440
it's the prenup of Instagram
00:52:53.640
you know
00:52:54.200
you don't need
00:52:54.760
you're setting yourself up for failure
00:52:56.460
the eternal prenup
00:52:57.660
mm-hmm
00:52:58.300
um
00:52:58.720
okay
00:52:59.360
do you know the definition of something that is both evil and retarded
00:53:03.820
oh like
00:53:08.480
you're not an example
00:53:10.120
like I can think of about a hundred examples of that
00:53:11.920
but you're saying
00:53:12.380
the definition of something that is both evil and retarded
00:53:16.020
like the definition of what that sort of a thing would be
00:53:19.460
suppose
00:53:19.980
I would say yes
00:53:24.160
I said yes
00:53:24.840
what is the thing
00:53:26.540
is he alluding to something in particular
00:53:27.880
I trusted that you would be able to come up with an adequate answer
00:53:31.100
my first thought was the American political system
00:53:33.220
and I thought
00:53:33.940
it was that Sam Francis quote you know
00:53:35.820
about you have an evil party and a stupid party
00:53:38.000
occasionally to do something together that is both evil and stupid
00:53:40.140
so that is maybe where I thought you were going
00:53:41.980
I didn't know it was a Sam Francis thing
00:53:43.480
okay
00:53:43.720
so yes
00:53:44.620
okay
00:53:45.160
yeah
00:53:45.480
because I was going to say
00:53:46.060
at a really basic level
00:53:47.180
it would
00:53:48.060
you would have to say sin
00:53:49.260
I don't want to sound like the church lady
00:53:50.660
but it would be
00:53:51.620
sin is both evil and retarded
00:53:54.320
in like a perfect way
00:53:55.500
it's totally irrational
00:53:56.820
because it's opposed to the logos
00:53:58.020
yeah
00:53:58.480
and it's evil
00:53:59.500
in that it's a
00:54:00.320
you know
00:54:00.720
a privation of the good
00:54:02.040
sure
00:54:02.300
but there are many examples of things
00:54:04.360
that are
00:54:04.740
that are evil and retarded
00:54:06.100
that's right
00:54:06.420
you would say
00:54:06.820
yeah
00:54:07.120
and they
00:54:07.520
they do go hand in hand
00:54:09.560
ultimately
00:54:11.160
quite often
00:54:11.700
you know I mean people can be really clever about their evil
00:54:14.420
and people can be really kind of
00:54:17.020
naive
00:54:18.720
you can't say innocent
00:54:19.540
but they could be naive about their kind of stupid things that they do
00:54:22.240
maybe even innocent
00:54:22.900
but when they go together
00:54:24.600
yeah
00:54:25.100
the Sam Francis quote
00:54:26.080
an acerbic writer
00:54:27.420
but he has some real one-liners
00:54:28.980
yes
00:54:29.280
yes
00:54:29.800
now folks before we move on
00:54:31.840
do you want to bring John Doyle to your home
00:54:34.140
because if you do
00:54:35.840
you have to message me for the prices
00:54:37.280
if you're a little too cheap to buy John
00:54:40.600
you can get the yes or no game
00:54:42.140
this is yes or no the game
00:54:44.080
and not only yes or no
00:54:45.680
you can also get the conspiracy theory expansion pack
00:54:48.380
you can also get the politics
00:54:50.520
philosophy and religion pack
00:54:52.180
we actually have other packs
00:54:53.540
but for some reason they're not here right now
00:54:55.620
get it
00:54:56.420
this is the way to figure out
00:54:58.200
if you really know your friends
00:54:59.300
your parents
00:55:00.700
your spouse
00:55:01.760
you go to dailywire.com slash shop
00:55:03.600
this is the game
00:55:06.480
to pull back the skull
00:55:08.540
of your loved ones
00:55:10.060
reach into the recesses of their brains
00:55:13.200
and find out what they really believe
00:55:16.280
dailywire.com
00:55:17.460
slash shop
00:55:19.980
okay
00:55:21.380
this is folks
00:55:22.840
the final round
00:55:25.160
the prompt will be read
00:55:26.760
we'll both log in our answers
00:55:28.640
and then move our glasses
00:55:29.900
to yes or no
00:55:31.100
to see if we can read
00:55:32.820
each other's minds
00:55:33.700
this round is worth double points
00:55:35.100
it could change
00:55:35.840
everything
00:55:36.700
it actually could change everything
00:55:37.620
because the score right now
00:55:38.420
I'm apparently winning
00:55:39.240
six to four
00:55:40.560
okay ready
00:55:41.700
so I'm going to put
00:55:42.340
you got to clear your answer
00:55:43.600
I'm going to put my glass here on Knoll's
00:55:45.620
you put yours on Doyle
00:55:47.260
all right
00:55:48.260
so we lock in our own answers
00:55:49.440
and we move the other guy's cup
00:55:50.680
to where we think they would answer
00:55:52.200
should America
00:55:56.000
prioritize
00:55:57.120
demographic stability
00:55:59.400
over economic growth
00:56:01.940
yes
00:56:10.980
I mean
00:56:11.500
I don't mean to downplay it
00:56:13.640
sometimes I'm
00:56:15.200
I guess a figure of the new right
00:56:16.580
and
00:56:17.120
I'm a little more avant-garde
00:56:19.060
maybe in some of my political thinking
00:56:21.120
compared to the
00:56:21.980
stasis of the last 30 years
00:56:23.540
however
00:56:24.200
some guys on the new right
00:56:26.080
they're a little cavalier
00:56:27.360
about economic growth
00:56:28.340
who cares about the economy
00:56:29.700
but
00:56:29.940
no no
00:56:30.540
economic growth is very important
00:56:32.740
yeah
00:56:33.000
practical interests
00:56:34.240
in geopolitics
00:56:35.240
like it really matters
00:56:36.300
yeah
00:56:36.680
but if you had to
00:56:38.900
pick one or the other
00:56:39.720
and I don't think
00:56:40.220
they're even opposed
00:56:41.000
necessarily
00:56:42.280
but if you had to pick
00:56:43.200
one or the other
00:56:43.720
we're a country first
00:56:45.620
we're not an economic zone
00:56:46.940
yeah
00:56:47.160
we're a country
00:56:47.720
if we try to be an economic zone
00:56:49.840
with a country attached
00:56:50.660
we're going to fail at both
00:56:51.440
yeah
00:56:51.760
that's absolutely right
00:56:52.820
and a lot of that
00:56:53.300
is just driven by these guys
00:56:54.360
who maybe are a bit younger
00:56:55.740
maybe they've given up
00:56:56.720
on the prospect
00:56:57.260
of ever owning a home
00:56:58.160
or something
00:56:58.560
and so it is kind of like
00:56:59.620
the political equivalent
00:57:00.500
of like F you dad
00:57:01.520
where you know
00:57:02.320
obviously your father's concerned
00:57:03.400
about his zestiments
00:57:04.340
and things like that
00:57:04.960
and so it is the younger way
00:57:06.280
of saying like
00:57:06.740
we don't care about that
00:57:07.560
we need closed borders
00:57:08.480
mass deportations
00:57:09.300
but like you said
00:57:09.860
these are not incompatible
00:57:11.360
you actually can have both
00:57:12.840
supposing you have
00:57:13.860
a political class
00:57:14.580
that could achieve one
00:57:15.400
it would probably want
00:57:16.140
to achieve the other as well
00:57:17.080
which seems to be
00:57:17.700
what we're seeing now
00:57:18.380
so
00:57:18.620
you want to hear something crazy
00:57:19.880
I'm going to quote
00:57:21.400
a right wing thinker
00:57:23.340
who would probably be banished
00:57:25.100
for being too fascistic
00:57:26.380
or something today
00:57:27.200
who says
00:57:28.240
the three pillars
00:57:29.200
of conservatism today
00:57:30.800
are religion
00:57:32.320
nationalism
00:57:33.820
and economic growth
00:57:35.760
do you know who said that
00:57:37.560
I don't
00:57:38.200
the man who said that
00:57:40.780
is Irving Kristol
00:57:42.280
the father of neoconservatism
00:57:44.480
isn't that crazy
00:57:45.400
that is crazy
00:57:45.940
because this is the thing
00:57:46.920
when everyone's inveighing
00:57:47.580
against the neocons
00:57:48.580
which I get what they mean
00:57:49.740
by that
00:57:50.120
and I basically agree
00:57:51.120
but
00:57:51.940
they're inveighing
00:57:54.240
against the second generation
00:57:55.640
of these guys
00:57:56.460
who were Trotskyites
00:57:57.200
who entered the right
00:57:58.460
in the Cold War
00:57:59.220
and the second generation
00:58:00.700
are now like
00:58:01.400
you know
00:58:01.680
marching for trans rights
00:58:02.700
in you know
00:58:03.340
Gaza or whatever
00:58:04.020
but the first generation
00:58:06.700
I still have some problems
00:58:07.640
with the first generation
00:58:08.440
obviously
00:58:08.800
but like
00:58:09.720
those guys are
00:58:11.140
Pat Buchanan
00:58:12.020
compared to
00:58:13.000
their children
00:58:14.280
basically
00:58:14.920
and it's like
00:58:15.580
in many cases
00:58:16.800
literally their children
00:58:17.640
yeah like I mean
00:58:18.460
that quite literally
00:58:19.180
yes
00:58:19.560
and
00:58:19.980
religion
00:58:21.560
nationalism
00:58:22.340
and economic growth
00:58:22.980
that's not my definition
00:58:24.000
of conservative
00:58:24.540
but that is
00:58:25.860
that is like
00:58:27.080
the most right wing version
00:58:28.440
almost that you can even
00:58:29.460
imagine today
00:58:30.360
it's pretty good
00:58:31.100
it's directionally correct
00:58:32.360
yes
00:58:32.760
yes
00:58:33.260
okay
00:58:33.880
final question
00:58:36.940
should AI companies
00:58:39.120
be treated like
00:58:40.060
nuclear labs
00:58:41.020
heavily regulated
00:58:42.180
yes
00:58:53.340
yes
00:58:54.060
correct correct
00:58:54.660
yes
00:58:54.880
but you know
00:58:55.320
I hedged a little
00:58:56.300
like
00:58:57.640
the answer today
00:58:59.320
I would say
00:58:59.960
is yes
00:59:00.540
because
00:59:00.960
we've done a good job
00:59:02.580
at fixing the regulators
00:59:03.760
yeah
00:59:04.120
and you can see
00:59:04.760
going very very wrong
00:59:06.080
if you had
00:59:06.540
like a truly
00:59:07.440
totally hopelessly corrupt
00:59:09.080
bureaucracy regulator
00:59:10.100
yeah
00:59:10.320
also because Peter Thiel
00:59:12.720
whom I quite like
00:59:14.040
and who's a very smart guy
00:59:15.880
who paid you to say that
00:59:16.680
and who paid me
00:59:17.500
to say that
00:59:18.140
and who has a gun
00:59:19.000
to my head off camera
00:59:19.920
actually
00:59:20.180
no Peter Thiel
00:59:21.460
who is great
00:59:22.440
I mean he
00:59:23.000
you know
00:59:23.320
he's got a lot
00:59:24.280
of good ideas
00:59:25.060
but he comes out
00:59:26.560
and he says
00:59:26.840
the Antichrist
00:59:29.340
he's very fascinated
00:59:30.160
by the Antichrist
00:59:30.900
yeah
00:59:31.140
and he says
00:59:31.860
the Antichrist
00:59:32.900
a lot of people think
00:59:33.620
he's going to come around
00:59:34.560
because of a lack
00:59:36.240
of government regulation
00:59:37.180
you know
00:59:37.480
AI is going to become
00:59:38.440
this Antichristic figure
00:59:39.360
but actually
00:59:40.700
I think it's the opposite
00:59:41.660
I think it's going to come around
00:59:42.960
because of government regulation
00:59:45.180
and I thought
00:59:45.800
well hold on
00:59:46.280
first of all
00:59:46.900
it sounds like
00:59:47.300
sort of thing
00:59:47.840
the Antichrist might say
00:59:48.660
but second of all
00:59:49.620
you do run
00:59:51.780
like a very prominent
00:59:52.620
AI company
00:59:53.360
like that is like
00:59:54.140
the best argument
00:59:55.340
I've ever heard
00:59:56.300
for the government
00:59:57.220
not to regulate
00:59:57.860
your own company
00:59:58.440
you know
00:59:58.800
it's good
00:59:59.260
I mean
00:59:59.560
you know
00:59:59.980
game respects game
01:00:00.820
that's a great argument
01:00:01.520
but
01:00:02.120
ultimately
01:00:05.460
we're talking about
01:00:06.540
something that is
01:00:06.980
so powerful
01:00:08.460
that I think
01:00:09.580
the libertarian view is
01:00:11.040
no regulation
01:00:12.060
but the conservative view is
01:00:14.420
no you have
01:00:15.000
this is something that
01:00:16.200
has a great deal to say
01:00:17.900
about the political order
01:00:18.820
yeah
01:00:19.140
and that really
01:00:20.160
comes into questions
01:00:21.240
about the common good
01:00:22.060
if
01:00:23.880
if we don't have something
01:00:25.360
to say about that
01:00:26.180
who does
01:00:27.180
right
01:00:27.620
right
01:00:28.280
yeah I think that
01:00:29.180
that was more or less
01:00:29.840
my thinking
01:00:30.300
where it's like
01:00:30.880
you know
01:00:31.500
on paper
01:00:32.420
would we like this
01:00:33.100
to maybe perhaps
01:00:33.660
not be regulated
01:00:34.380
regulated
01:00:34.800
we can have that conversation
01:00:35.980
it is going to be regulated
01:00:37.560
I like that Trump decided
01:00:38.840
he wanted to throw
01:00:39.520
his hat in the ring
01:00:40.340
rather than leave it to
01:00:41.260
what California
01:00:42.160
and have those people
01:00:43.180
out there be
01:00:43.740
in charge of it
01:00:44.420
things of that nature
01:00:45.060
so is it possible
01:00:46.260
that a democrat
01:00:46.820
could come in
01:00:47.420
and then start to regulate
01:00:48.360
it in a way
01:00:49.280
that would be
01:00:49.580
disadvantageous to us
01:00:50.500
like of course
01:00:50.980
but
01:00:51.640
that's going to happen
01:00:52.520
anyway just because
01:00:53.520
it's in California
01:00:54.460
Silicon Valley
01:00:55.100
so
01:00:55.360
someone's been regulated
01:00:56.660
yes
01:00:56.960
and I want that to be us
01:00:58.220
it is good
01:00:58.880
when we do things
01:01:00.340
it is bad
01:01:01.320
when they do things
01:01:02.500
it is that simple
01:01:03.760
but that's hypocrisy
01:01:05.200
no
01:01:05.580
it's hypocrisy
01:01:06.600
if you support
01:01:07.900
our side
01:01:08.840
doing good things
01:01:09.980
and you object
01:01:11.240
to their side
01:01:12.420
doing bad things
01:01:13.280
you're a hypocrite
01:01:14.080
right
01:01:14.440
that is the line
01:01:15.180
isn't it
01:01:15.500
right
01:01:15.820
I don't know
01:01:17.200
if that logic
01:01:17.860
so what happened
01:01:19.200
yes
01:01:22.000
because
01:01:22.500
John
01:01:23.040
did you win
01:01:23.800
I won
01:01:24.340
by a lot
01:01:25.120
just like I drew it up
01:01:26.160
I wanted to drink
01:01:26.780
more free alcohol
01:01:27.480
on Marty's truck
01:01:28.340
it's a good Tom Collins
01:01:29.420
I'm also just so lucky
01:01:31.420
because
01:01:31.940
I'm way behind
01:01:33.180
I'm way behind on work
01:01:34.480
I'm way behind
01:01:35.340
like I have to do work tonight
01:01:36.500
and I have
01:01:38.180
three little kids
01:01:39.420
you know
01:01:40.520
my wife at home
01:01:41.360
she's doing a lot
01:01:41.940
juggling them
01:01:42.400
but I'm expected
01:01:43.160
to do something
01:01:43.860
right
01:01:44.180
if I showed up
01:01:45.260
just three martinis
01:01:47.020
blasted on
01:01:48.120
on Mardi Gras
01:01:49.380
yeah
01:01:49.680
that would be bad
01:01:50.840
because I'm waiting
01:01:51.440
to have my two other martinis
01:01:52.760
until after they go to bed
01:01:53.800
so the Knowles household
01:01:54.940
has a position
01:01:56.020
against the three martini lunch
01:01:57.480
I take it
01:01:58.440
the three
01:01:59.720
it's at most
01:02:00.640
a one and a half
01:02:01.300
martini lunch
01:02:02.020
then you gotta have
01:02:03.060
the rest at dinner
01:02:04.320
right
01:02:04.600
yes
01:02:05.040
so when are you
01:02:06.900
gonna have the Tom Collinses
01:02:07.980
second they're put
01:02:08.900
in front of me
01:02:09.380
let's go
01:02:09.960
are we getting
01:02:10.540
are we really gonna make
01:02:12.060
this is
01:02:12.580
are we gonna make you slam
01:02:13.640
I think that'd be
01:02:14.320
excellent content
01:02:14.980
I'm not gonna lie
01:02:15.580
alright
01:02:15.900
can we get the man
01:02:16.720
two Tom Collinses please
01:02:17.720
can we
01:02:18.680
and I'll just
01:02:19.300
look at this
01:02:19.980
I'm like a weakling here
01:02:21.240
the thing is
01:02:21.500
I don't want my integrity
01:02:22.480
to be called into question
01:02:23.540
I don't want people
01:02:24.060
to be like
01:02:24.380
he didn't actually drink
01:02:25.180
they'll call you a Welch
01:02:25.900
you're right
01:02:26.240
exactly
01:02:26.500
yeah you're right
01:02:27.000
could we
01:02:27.420
can I get a cigar too
01:02:28.760
I know we have a couple
01:02:30.920
in the studio right now
01:02:32.020
if we're gonna
01:02:32.500
if he's gonna
01:02:33.100
I'll take a
01:02:33.460
hey if we have cigars
01:02:34.420
could we have
01:02:35.240
I'll give you
01:02:36.540
while they prepare
01:02:37.400
our drinks
01:02:37.920
you need to go check out
01:02:39.240
the John Doyle show
01:02:40.140
on YouTube
01:02:40.940
The Blaze
01:02:42.200
MySpace
01:02:43.640
wherever you listen
01:02:45.000
to your podcasts
01:02:45.840
I'm not gonna say
01:02:47.660
see you next time
01:02:48.280
on Yes or No yet
01:02:48.980
I'm gonna say
01:02:50.300
we're taking a pause
01:02:51.160
while two separate
01:02:53.380
Tom Collinses
01:02:54.220
are being made for you
01:02:55.160
and the cigars
01:02:56.060
are being brought in
01:02:56.660
thank you professor
01:02:57.580
now hold on
01:02:58.920
hold on
01:02:59.480
that's only one glass
01:03:00.500
oh it's a double
01:03:01.420
is that a double
01:03:02.300
you might not believe it
01:03:03.640
there's a greater girth
01:03:04.600
on this glass
01:03:05.480
that's true
01:03:06.240
than this one
01:03:07.180
that's true
01:03:07.700
it might be more
01:03:08.160
than a double
01:03:08.580
okay
01:03:08.920
and did we have a cigar
01:03:10.700
yeah we don't
01:03:11.880
you know we don't need
01:03:12.540
to be so precious about it
01:03:14.400
I just want
01:03:14.780
if he's gonna drink
01:03:15.480
I would like a cigar
01:03:16.180
thank you
01:03:17.120
you know actually
01:03:18.220
I would
01:03:18.480
yeah would you like
01:03:19.900
these are Mayflowers
01:03:21.160
would you like the dusk
01:03:21.880
or the dawn
01:03:22.240
dealer's choice
01:03:23.020
okay I would
01:03:23.800
do you smoke regularly
01:03:25.080
not regularly
01:03:25.800
okay have the dawn
01:03:26.700
it's a nice
01:03:27.540
most popular one
01:03:28.500
that we have
01:03:28.880
do we have a light
01:03:30.060
no
01:03:31.660
these people bring me smokes
01:03:32.880
we don't even have a light
01:03:33.760
see we have a girl
01:03:34.820
for this in my studio
01:03:35.720
yeah this is
01:03:36.600
do we
01:03:37.000
does anybody have a light
01:03:38.020
on no
01:03:38.360
because no one smokes
01:03:39.040
anymore
01:03:39.300
because we're not
01:03:39.680
a proper country
01:03:40.260
right
01:03:40.700
thank you sir
01:03:41.620
I appreciate you
01:03:42.500
would you like me
01:03:43.620
to cut your
01:03:44.180
please
01:03:44.760
cigar for you
01:03:45.480
okay
01:03:45.680
I actually have to
01:03:46.840
make another one
01:03:47.380
of those videos
01:03:47.960
speaking about black history
01:03:49.340
and I thought that
01:03:50.380
this would be
01:03:50.700
the perfect lubricant
01:03:51.740
what's your comment
01:03:54.580
I don't know
01:03:55.900
we may do Malcolm X
01:03:56.940
because you know
01:03:58.500
back to the commentary class
01:04:00.100
so many of these people
01:04:00.920
who believe that
01:04:01.580
they're right wing
01:04:02.080
or conservative
01:04:02.640
think that like
01:04:03.280
Malcolm X
01:04:03.800
is an ally of sorts
01:04:04.880
to you know
01:04:06.100
the right wing cause
01:04:06.920
or whatever
01:04:07.200
this is the guy
01:04:08.100
who would go out
01:04:08.960
talking about like
01:04:09.680
killing white police officers
01:04:10.820
the black panthers
01:04:11.600
who would stage these ambushes
01:04:12.780
on innocent white cops
01:04:13.740
were of course
01:04:14.140
inspired by this rhetoric
01:04:15.140
yeah killing Kennedy
01:04:17.260
was the chickens
01:04:17.880
coming home
01:04:18.320
yes
01:04:18.580
so it's just
01:04:19.820
all these villains
01:04:20.460
who like JFK
01:04:22.220
because they like
01:04:22.980
look cool
01:04:23.500
and got a couple movies
01:04:24.320
made about them
01:04:25.020
didn't
01:04:25.520
did Oliver Stone
01:04:27.480
also make the Malcolm X movie
01:04:29.140
am I just inventing that
01:04:30.920
point being
01:04:31.720
I'll choose to believe it
01:04:32.200
anybody who gets a movie
01:04:33.120
made out of them
01:04:33.860
or made about them
01:04:34.720
and wears like
01:04:35.280
Clubmasters or something
01:04:36.280
is considered like cool
01:04:37.260
and something that's up
01:04:38.060
you know
01:04:38.380
did
01:04:39.060
okay
01:04:42.540
alright
01:04:43.380
now you got
01:04:43.980
you got to slam it
01:04:44.720
you know one topic
01:04:46.220
while you
01:04:46.580
while you drink that
01:04:47.400
I have a topic
01:04:48.060
that you have to cover
01:04:48.760
for Black History Month
01:04:49.640
make sure it's lit
01:04:51.500
okay
01:04:52.000
alright
01:04:54.480
I'll see if I can get
01:04:55.160
this whole pitch out
01:04:55.800
while you drink that
01:04:56.400
Tom Collins
01:04:56.880
I do have to slam
01:04:58.460
there you go
01:04:59.480
that's a big one
01:05:00.200
that's a big one
01:05:00.940
chin chin
01:05:02.320
cheers
01:05:02.900
to your health
01:05:03.560
that's right
01:05:04.300
so my pitch
01:05:07.460
while you slam
01:05:08.020
that Tom Collins
01:05:08.640
well look
01:05:08.980
he's going fast
01:05:09.540
Yakub
01:05:10.860
speaking of Malcolm X
01:05:12.860
I want to
01:05:13.500
I don't mean to slow you down
01:05:14.180
Nation of Islam
01:05:15.000
he's the
01:05:15.520
coldness
01:05:16.060
the black demiurge
01:05:17.580
who created
01:05:19.020
the white race
01:05:19.920
in the mythology
01:05:20.940
of the nation of Islam
01:05:22.080
and who knows
01:05:22.760
maybe in reality
01:05:23.500
if Malcolm X
01:05:24.080
is right
01:05:24.380
Yakub is not
01:05:26.260
sufficiently understood
01:05:27.020
he looks kind of
01:05:27.780
Somali
01:05:28.160
he's got a gigantic head
01:05:29.380
because of his big brain
01:05:30.300
and he invented
01:05:31.460
the white race
01:05:32.180
to get back
01:05:32.760
at some other black people
01:05:33.740
and then the white race
01:05:34.980
enslaved the world
01:05:35.680
through their use
01:05:36.260
of tricknology
01:05:37.000
this is good
01:05:39.400
now
01:05:39.580
I don't know about you
01:05:40.540
but
01:05:40.760
I feel like my day to day
01:05:42.540
is spent doing
01:05:43.700
a kind of arithmetic
01:05:44.460
where I wake up
01:05:45.880
and I begin the stimulants
01:05:46.920
nicotine
01:05:47.620
caffeine
01:05:48.060
I get to cruising altitude
01:05:49.060
the rest of the day
01:05:50.060
I try to maintain that
01:05:51.180
and then if I try to go to sleep
01:05:52.380
now I have to begin
01:05:53.340
the consumption of alcohol
01:05:54.360
you know
01:05:54.660
get us safely back
01:05:56.480
onto the airstrip
01:05:58.100
to the realm of the
01:05:59.180
walking and the living
01:05:59.940
so this is sort of like
01:06:01.120
a speed ball
01:06:01.660
because I've got the
01:06:02.640
the alcohol
01:06:03.460
and the nicotine
01:06:04.360
at the same time
01:06:05.780
I hope we don't
01:06:06.500
John Belushi you
01:06:07.400
I hope you don't become
01:06:08.620
John Belushi Doyle
01:06:09.980
I would prefer
01:06:10.820
that that outcome
01:06:11.840
not be what happens
01:06:13.400
you are a man
01:06:14.540
of your word
01:06:15.300
and you
01:06:16.100
you slammed
01:06:17.080
the double Tom Collins
01:06:18.140
in shocking speed
01:06:20.900
and I don't even
01:06:22.160
I'm not like a drinker
01:06:23.240
I'm just
01:06:24.020
I'm not
01:06:24.440
I'm not
01:06:25.840
I'm not even a drinker
01:06:26.860
I'm not even drinking anymore
01:06:27.820
you know
01:06:28.220
I didn't start drinking
01:06:28.980
until I actually
01:06:29.800
entered conservative media
01:06:30.900
because I would go
01:06:31.920
to these parties
01:06:32.460
and everyone would hand me
01:06:33.340
what I believed
01:06:33.840
was a glass of water
01:06:34.760
and it turns out
01:06:35.240
it was a glass
01:06:35.680
of straight vodka
01:06:36.460
yeah no
01:06:37.260
listen
01:06:37.580
I never started drinking
01:06:38.460
until I was in
01:06:39.000
conservative media
01:06:39.640
because of all the people
01:06:40.400
that you're around
01:06:41.240
because you have to be around
01:06:42.480
all the time
01:06:42.820
