00:00:34.480 Bitcoin is sort of inevitable at this point.

00:01:00.280 Is it gay if you have sex with a robot that looks like a Sheila that's being controlled by a fella in France?
00:01:07.120 Yes. Is that gay?
00:01:08.600 No.
00:01:09.020 It's depraved.
00:01:10.040 Hold on. Wait, hold on. Now I have to...
00:01:11.200 Oh, sorry.
00:01:11.700 Welcome to Yes or No, the bibulous battle to discover who knows whom better.
00:01:28.120 My guest today is Matt Fradd.
00:01:30.380 How do we play?
00:01:31.040 I ask Matt a yes or no question.
00:01:33.660 He will select his answer away from my prying eyes.
00:01:37.140 Then I will guess how he answered.
00:01:40.100 If I guess correctly, I get a point.
00:01:42.360 If I guess incorrectly, I lose a point.
00:01:44.620 No matter what, I will probably drink.
00:01:47.680 And it's like 10 o'clock in the morning right now.
00:01:49.960 So it'll be setting me up for a great day.
00:01:52.500 Then it's Matt's turn.
00:01:53.820 Neither of us have seen the questions beforehand.
00:01:55.440 Whoever has the most points at the end wins.
00:01:58.380 The stakes could be higher.
00:02:01.480 Let's get started.
00:02:03.660 Matt, on this show, we make a wager.
00:02:07.900 Okay.
00:02:08.620 One time, I beat Nick Fradis and he gave me a gigantic desert eagle.
00:02:12.740 A Catholic desert eagle with Deus Volt and the excommunicator.
00:02:16.800 Oh, I saw that.
00:02:17.040 Did you see it?
00:02:17.400 Great video, by the way.
00:02:18.180 So what's our wager going to be?
00:02:19.560 I think if you beat me, I have to post some sycophantic rant on my social media
00:02:25.340 about how great you are.
00:02:26.340 And you can even write it for me.
00:02:27.780 Okay.
00:02:28.180 And same thing.
00:02:29.080 So you just have to gush over me if I beat you on social media.
00:02:32.220 Okay, that's fine.
00:02:33.080 I want another gun.
00:02:34.900 Is there no...
00:02:35.940 I don't know if I have anything called a...
00:02:37.340 I have a kangaroo...
00:02:38.460 I have a taxidermed kangaroo scrotum in my studio.
00:02:41.440 I'll give you that.
00:02:42.300 No, you know what you could...
00:02:43.200 Whatever gun you bring, you'd be like,
00:02:44.800 that's not a gun.
00:02:46.200 This is a gun.
00:02:47.460 You know, but it'd be like, no crocodile dundee.
00:02:49.560 Okay, all right, that's fine.
00:02:50.320 We'll just move on.
00:02:51.020 That's fine.
00:02:51.400 No big deal.
00:02:52.320 Off to a great start.
00:02:53.860 Do you know the rules?
00:02:55.340 But have we decided what we're doing?
00:02:56.880 We can do the obsequious post.
00:02:58.140 Okay, good.
00:02:58.480 That's fine.
00:02:58.920 It's easy.
00:02:59.340 Because one time I did this,
00:03:00.700 and we did the thing.
00:03:02.020 I lost.
00:03:03.180 And I have to fly across the country for a thing.
00:03:06.080 Are you kidding?
00:03:07.060 Yeah.
00:03:07.480 I never do that.
00:03:08.280 I know.
00:03:08.740 The one social media post.
00:03:09.980 One post is...
00:03:11.300 Okay, I'll have Jacob write it.
00:03:13.020 Okay.
00:03:13.340 All right.
00:03:14.560 Sorry, Jacob.
00:03:16.480 Will the East-West schism be resolved
00:03:18.880 before the current conservative one?
00:03:20.960 Will the...
00:03:21.960 Will the...
00:03:25.960 And I guess what you say.
00:03:27.720 You guess...
00:03:28.260 No, no, you give your answer,
00:03:29.940 and I guess what you say.
00:03:30.960 Oh, all right.
00:03:31.980 Oh, okay.
00:03:32.860 I think that's right.
00:03:33.640 I think that's right.
00:03:34.740 Do I click the button now?
00:03:35.560 Yeah, you click your answer.
00:03:36.560 All right.
00:03:37.600 Yeah.
00:03:38.300 No.
00:03:39.700 You can't...
00:03:40.480 Wait, you just...
00:03:41.280 I'm sorry.
00:03:41.740 Wait, wait.
00:03:42.260 It's really early.
00:03:43.260 I say yes.
00:03:44.220 Okay.
00:03:44.760 Well done.
00:03:45.420 And you were...
00:03:45.880 I did say yes.
00:03:46.860 Why?
00:03:47.820 Just because the conservative...
00:03:50.920 The breakdown among conservatives
00:03:52.620 is off the charts.
00:03:53.760 Yes.
00:03:54.180 Also because, like,
00:03:56.900 God wills the unity of Christ's church.
00:04:01.180 Right?
00:04:03.100 There is a big force
00:04:04.680 that at least by the end of history
00:04:06.440 will bring us all together.
00:04:07.440 Please go on.
00:04:08.380 There will be no such force
00:04:10.260 in the American right.
00:04:11.600 That is only ever chaos and division.
00:04:14.900 There is no catacomb
00:04:16.260 of American right-wing politics.
00:04:18.080 It is just apocalypse now
00:04:19.940 all the time.
00:04:20.840 You know,
00:04:21.140 if you want to upset
00:04:22.280 our Orthodox brothers and sisters,
00:04:23.880 what you say is,
00:04:24.640 well, after the Protestant Revolution,
00:04:27.160 there were Eastern churches
00:04:28.620 that came back into union with Rome.
00:04:30.320 That's right.
00:04:30.660 Right?
00:04:30.800 We have 23 Eastern churches,
00:04:32.240 Ukrainians.
00:04:32.780 So what you could say is,
00:04:33.800 oh, it's already happened.
00:04:35.340 There's already been the reunification.
00:04:37.440 That's...
00:04:37.720 There's just some holdouts.
00:04:38.440 That's not true.
00:04:39.520 I wouldn't...
00:04:39.980 No, I would take...
00:04:40.860 I would sort of say that.
00:04:41.980 You probably want
00:04:42.720 Constantinople back, though,
00:04:44.060 wouldn't you?
00:04:44.460 I would.
00:04:45.080 In many ways,
00:04:46.280 I want Constantinople back.
00:04:47.860 Yes.
00:04:47.920 I was there recently.
00:04:48.980 Really?
00:04:49.540 In the mosque.
00:04:51.220 And you kept your head.
00:04:52.300 As far as I can tell,
00:04:53.360 it's still on your neck.
00:04:54.260 My priest friend and I...
00:04:55.340 It doesn't matter.
00:04:55.860 That's illegal.
00:04:56.440 You go.
00:04:57.360 I go.
00:04:58.360 Wow.
00:04:58.760 We're talking...
00:04:59.300 Okay.
00:04:59.660 Now clear your...
00:05:00.940 All right.
00:05:01.340 Okay.
00:05:01.900 You go.
00:05:02.500 All right.
00:05:04.400 Now that Pines with Aquinas
00:05:05.800 is hosted on Daily Wire,
00:05:07.160 it's more likely
00:05:08.380 Ben Shapiro converts to Christianity.
00:05:11.800 Okay.
00:05:12.120 And I put this here.
00:05:13.860 Yeah.
00:05:17.280 We're not even drinking.
00:05:18.480 This is...
00:05:18.940 Yeah, I actually had a sip already,
00:05:20.020 but I'll do another one.
00:05:20.720 Cheers.
00:05:21.080 All right.
00:05:21.460 Cheers to healing the system.
00:05:23.180 To the Holy Father
00:05:23.880 and death to his enemies.
00:05:28.820 Champagne for my real friends
00:05:30.340 and real pain for my sham friends.
00:05:32.480 Oh, that's good.
00:05:33.480 Okay.
00:05:33.620 This one sounds creepy,
00:05:34.820 but ends up mildly funny.
00:05:36.240 Ready?
00:05:36.360 To the years I spent
00:05:37.800 in the arms of another man's wife,
00:05:39.600 my mother.
00:05:41.340 Wow, that's good.
00:05:42.840 Is it?
00:05:43.220 I don't know if it's good.
00:05:43.940 To honor.
00:05:44.820 No, there's a very bawdy one
00:05:46.600 that frat boys say.
00:05:48.180 Okay.
00:05:49.560 I've got to guess what you'd say.
00:05:51.020 Yeah.
00:05:51.300 All right.
00:05:51.860 Done.
00:05:53.080 I would say not wrong.
00:05:54.580 I said yes.
00:05:55.520 Did you?
00:05:56.000 Why?
00:05:56.100 Yes.
00:05:56.500 Because previously,
00:05:58.180 I was the Catholic at Daily Wire.
00:06:00.300 Matt is Catholic too, actually,
00:06:01.520 but he doesn't...
00:06:02.540 He's not as flamboyant about it,
00:06:03.960 you know?
00:06:04.320 And so he...
00:06:05.180 Previously, I was the Catholic,
00:06:06.280 and that is a stumbling block
00:06:07.980 to Ben, I think.
00:06:09.320 I think Ben would be
00:06:10.860 less likely to convert because...
00:06:12.420 If you became a Protestant,
00:06:13.600 he might be a little more open to it.
00:06:14.720 Yeah, yeah.
00:06:15.460 Or if I became a Shinto,
00:06:16.740 maybe he'd become, you know,
00:06:17.840 just broadly Christian.
00:06:18.860 But the fact that you are here now,
00:06:21.100 and he likes you,
00:06:22.500 I think he likes you.
00:06:23.960 I don't know.
00:06:24.380 I don't...
00:06:24.920 He at least doesn't actively dislike you.
00:06:26.920 And so because of that,
00:06:28.260 he's more likely, yes.
00:06:29.500 The only reason I would have said no
00:06:30.580 is I would just imagine
00:06:31.240 he'd dig his heels in.
00:06:33.220 Like, we're crowding him.
00:06:34.060 Because we're taking over
00:06:34.840 the entire company.
00:06:37.160 Hmm, you're right.
00:06:39.540 Huh.
00:06:40.380 So who do we have to bring in?
00:06:42.420 Oh.
00:06:42.840 Do we need to hire a ton of Jews?
00:06:44.660 And then he'll be like,
00:06:46.080 he'll be contrarian enough
00:06:47.120 that he'll switch?
00:06:48.660 No.
00:06:49.020 That's five VHS.
00:06:49.840 In fairness to Ben,
00:06:50.140 he's not very contrarian.
00:06:51.220 He seems to know what he believes
00:06:52.600 and then sticks to it.
00:06:53.580 Whether or not the world
00:06:54.340 will hate him or love him for it.
00:06:55.420 Yeah, I guess so.
00:06:55.980 Okay, all right.
00:06:56.540 We're just drinking at this point.
00:06:57.360 Say lovey.
00:06:58.020 Say lovey.
00:06:58.680 So I said no.
00:06:59.440 So you lost.
00:07:00.160 Now...
00:07:00.460 Oh, we don't play it normally.
00:07:02.120 Clear my answer, Fred.
00:07:03.280 Done.
00:07:04.020 I won't respond to you again.
00:07:05.080 I'm sorry.
00:07:06.000 There's someone in my ear
00:07:06.760 and I'm responding.
00:07:07.160 Who's in your...
00:07:07.760 How much have you had to drink?
00:07:09.000 Should there be a waiting period
00:07:11.740 to interview someone like Lily Phillips,
00:07:13.780 who was a prostitute,
00:07:14.820 but who now is baptized?
00:07:17.700 She told me because I didn't know
00:07:18.680 who that was.
00:07:20.100 Is she public?
00:07:21.120 She says he doesn't know
00:07:21.920 who that was.
00:07:22.680 No, you actually...
00:07:23.120 Is she a public figure?
00:07:24.360 So there were...
00:07:25.360 Yes, she is because...
00:07:26.880 You might have read about her.
00:07:27.620 To interview.
00:07:28.200 Oh, I see.
00:07:28.920 There are two ladies...
00:07:30.880 Not...
00:07:31.400 Well, this is all public.
00:07:32.440 There are two ladies
00:07:33.200 who slept with a thousand guys.
00:07:34.420 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:07:34.700 You remember that?
00:07:35.320 And one is like...
00:07:36.560 Yeah, I heard about that.
00:07:37.060 One is like the good one
00:07:38.540 and one's the bad one.
00:07:39.520 I don't know.
00:07:40.060 It's like the way it's in public
00:07:40.940 is like one is truly,
00:07:43.140 like explicitly demoniac about it
00:07:47.040 and then the other one
00:07:48.260 is like kind...
00:07:49.100 Seems like kind of sad and nice.
00:07:49.680 So one has repented
00:07:50.660 and has been baptized or...?
00:07:52.540 Has been baptized, yes.
00:07:53.760 Yeah.
00:07:54.000 Has repented is less clear,
00:07:56.480 but I do think...
00:07:58.600 I read her as being...
00:08:00.220 Okay, so hold on.
00:08:00.900 Yeah, you...
00:08:01.600 So I guess...
00:08:02.100 That's enough context.
00:08:02.800 All right.
00:08:03.300 So now you gotta...
00:08:04.380 Guess what you'd guess.
00:08:05.460 Guess what I would guess.
00:08:06.900 No, I gotta guess
00:08:08.080 what you would guess.
00:08:08.980 Oh.
00:08:09.380 What you would say.
00:08:10.360 All right, I will say...
00:08:11.860 I will say that...
00:08:14.860 Yes, there should be
00:08:16.720 a waiting period.
00:08:17.400 Yeah, for her own sake.
00:08:18.240 Yes.
00:08:18.820 And for us.
00:08:19.700 Yeah.
00:08:20.780 Yes, but it's not...
00:08:22.980 I'm not entirely opposed
00:08:25.280 to someone who was even
00:08:28.060 in like the extreme depths
00:08:29.820 of gravity like that
00:08:31.420 to coming out
00:08:32.300 and having a testimony,
00:08:33.980 but it takes...
00:08:35.020 Let it take root for...
00:08:36.020 You need a little time.
00:08:37.080 You need a little time.
00:08:37.680 Bless her.
00:08:38.080 Especially it's like
00:08:38.940 if you go out
00:08:40.080 and you have like
00:08:40.580 a crazy year,
00:08:41.760 you know, whatever.
00:08:42.460 You like do some drugs
00:08:43.400 and whatever.
00:08:44.320 You sleep with like
00:08:45.180 five chicks.
00:08:47.500 That takes a while
00:08:48.520 to get those habits
00:08:49.260 out of you.
00:08:50.040 A thousand in a day.
00:08:51.720 That is...
00:08:52.340 God have mercy on her.
00:08:53.880 Yeah.
00:08:54.320 Like you need...
00:08:55.120 I think you gotta just...
00:08:57.060 You don't wanna be exposed
00:08:58.200 to...
00:08:59.000 I don't know.
00:08:59.300 So is she Catholic?
00:09:00.380 Did she become a Catholic?
00:09:01.600 Is that what happened?
00:09:02.160 It looked...
00:09:02.780 I couldn't tell.
00:09:03.540 It was in a...
00:09:04.100 The baptism was in a...
00:09:05.280 Like a blow-up pool
00:09:06.860 and it looked like
00:09:08.020 it was in a vaguely...
00:09:08.700 You know what's tough
00:09:09.240 about this situation
00:09:10.080 is somebody who would engage
00:09:11.340 in that kind of depravity
00:09:12.660 is probably only doing it
00:09:15.040 for attention.
00:09:16.540 Could be.
00:09:16.960 I'm a little...
00:09:17.960 Some do that.
00:09:18.240 I don't mean to be cynical
00:09:19.120 but my...
00:09:19.760 I wonder if...
00:09:20.960 Getting baptized
00:09:21.760 is the most controversial
00:09:23.240 thing she could do
00:09:24.040 after that.
00:09:24.680 Right.
00:09:25.260 I wonder that.
00:09:26.080 I hope not.
00:09:26.440 I read an interview of hers
00:09:27.980 and she said,
00:09:28.980 I felt this call to God
00:09:30.700 and so I'm gonna try to...
00:09:32.860 You know,
00:09:33.040 I haven't been able
00:09:33.600 to get to church very much
00:09:34.680 because I'm traveling
00:09:35.400 a lot for work
00:09:35.940 but I'm gonna try to
00:09:36.660 really prioritize that more
00:09:38.080 and I grew up
00:09:38.540 in a religious household
00:09:39.540 but I mean,
00:09:40.460 we didn't go to church
00:09:41.440 but we were very close
00:09:42.400 to God
00:09:43.000 and I mean,
00:09:43.960 I'm not a traditional Christian.
00:09:45.860 I'm not putting myself
00:09:46.540 out that way.
00:09:47.140 Oh, I see.
00:09:47.960 That's why you said
00:09:48.880 she may not have repented.
00:09:50.340 Yeah,
00:09:50.780 but what was weird
00:09:51.920 is it was so contradictory
00:09:53.760 and I actually read it
00:09:55.980 as sincere.
00:09:56.880 I think she probably
00:09:57.620 is sincere
00:09:58.180 and just like doesn't...
00:09:59.420 Even to say,
00:10:00.060 I grew up in a religious household.
00:10:01.940 We didn't go to church
00:10:02.620 but we were religious
00:10:03.420 means she was probably
00:10:05.540 scandalized like a billion times
00:10:07.500 from the day she was born
00:10:09.020 until today
00:10:10.180 as she continues
00:10:10.900 to scandalize other people
00:10:11.780 and it's like,
00:10:12.880 it might be baby steps.
00:10:14.600 You know,
00:10:14.780 it might be.
00:10:15.160 Here's a question for you.
00:10:16.520 Suppose she had
00:10:17.420 a big Christian podcast
00:10:18.780 and then fell off the wagon
00:10:20.680 and did all that.
00:10:22.300 That's a question.
00:10:22.960 Like,
00:10:23.100 should people like that
00:10:23.860 be coming back
00:10:24.640 to a public
00:10:25.700 There are examples of this
00:10:26.980 in public
00:10:27.560 without engaging
00:10:28.880 in the sin of detraction.
00:10:30.040 There are people who do this.
00:10:31.720 Yeah,
00:10:31.940 and to differing degrees.
00:10:33.120 It's an interesting...
00:10:34.500 What do you think?
00:10:35.400 Probably not
00:10:36.140 for a little while.
00:10:37.060 For a little while at least.
00:10:38.300 Five years, 10 years.
00:10:39.060 Yes.
00:10:39.560 When I say a little while,
00:10:40.500 I mean like five years.
00:10:41.360 I think you need to...
00:10:42.420 You need to go do something else
00:10:44.360 for a little while.
00:10:45.340 You know,
00:10:45.540 you're in a very...
00:10:46.080 If you're going to put yourself out
00:10:47.240 as a specifically Christian,
00:10:50.560 I don't know,
00:10:51.340 broadcaster or teacher
00:10:52.300 or something,
00:10:52.980 you...
00:10:53.880 The punishments
00:10:55.080 have to be a little tough.
00:10:55.920 The penance has to be
00:10:56.700 a little tougher,
00:10:57.180 I think.
00:10:58.040 But what do I know?
00:10:58.820 I'm not a priest.
00:11:00.300 You're up.
00:11:00.940 All right.
00:11:02.680 Clear the answers.
00:11:03.820 Here we go.
00:11:04.400 I'll stop repeating
00:11:05.320 what the man in my ear is saying.
00:11:07.180 Is it possible...
00:11:08.100 Matt,
00:11:08.400 we all want to get you help,
00:11:10.160 but you need to tell us
00:11:11.440 what the man in your ear is saying.
00:11:12.760 Is it possible
00:11:14.760 that God's mark on Cain
00:11:16.620 in Genesis 4, 15
00:11:17.780 granted him immortality,
00:11:19.340 cursing him
00:11:19.820 to walk the earth forever
00:11:20.900 since scripture
00:11:21.840 never records his death,
00:11:23.140 describes him
00:11:23.740 as a restless wanderer
00:11:25.140 and ones that no man
00:11:26.420 may kill him?
00:11:27.100 Can I get my answer?
00:11:30.420 Uh-huh.
00:11:31.320 Is this like
00:11:32.020 the eternal Jew?
00:11:33.280 You know the thing
00:11:33.780 of the eternal Jew?
00:11:34.620 Just wanders the earth forever?
00:11:35.860 I've got to be honest.
00:11:36.880 When people start
00:11:37.520 talking about Jews now,
00:11:38.360 it makes me as uncomfortable
00:11:39.340 as when they start
00:11:39.940 making jokes about blacks.
00:11:41.180 I'm like,
00:11:41.440 I don't know where...
00:11:42.480 Not at all?
00:11:43.100 I don't know how to...
00:11:43.800 I don't know how to thread
00:11:45.020 the needle anymore.
00:11:46.280 I just...
00:11:46.960 No, there's...
00:11:47.560 I don't know.
00:11:48.320 There's a plant
00:11:49.460 called the wandering Jew.
00:11:50.880 Oh, yeah.
00:11:51.720 Which is...
00:11:52.320 We have some in our backyard.
00:11:53.060 Woo!
00:11:53.160 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:53.700 They...
00:11:54.320 After I got hired,
00:11:55.140 I planted it.
00:11:55.680 Keep going.
00:11:55.880 Is it a natural...
00:11:57.460 Of course.
00:11:58.600 But it...
00:11:59.880 We had this teacher
00:12:00.800 and, you know,
00:12:01.260 I grew up,
00:12:01.780 all my friends were Jews
00:12:02.800 because it was New York.
00:12:04.100 And then the teacher
00:12:05.160 was explaining,
00:12:05.940 they said,
00:12:06.120 why do they call the plant
00:12:06.720 the wandering Jew?
00:12:07.840 I said,
00:12:08.040 because it kind of goes wherever
00:12:09.120 and it's hard to kill it.
00:12:11.340 It's like basically...
00:12:12.100 It was just,
00:12:12.460 you know,
00:12:12.740 that's like a good thing, right?
00:12:14.340 But it comes from this myth
00:12:15.800 of the wandering Jew
00:12:17.740 who like wanders around forever.
00:12:19.520 It sounds like this, basically.
00:12:21.260 All right.
00:12:21.880 So now do you answer this?
00:12:23.720 I answered.
00:12:24.460 You already answered.
00:12:25.220 So is it...
00:12:26.080 See,
00:12:26.300 while I was distracting you
00:12:27.260 with the Jew thing,
00:12:28.020 I was answering.
00:12:28.840 I'm going to go ahead
00:12:30.020 and say no.
00:12:31.880 Yeah.
00:12:32.260 I mean,
00:12:32.540 yeah.
00:12:33.480 I mean,
00:12:33.860 there's possibility
00:12:34.440 and probability,
00:12:35.320 so I suppose
00:12:35.840 many things are possible,
00:12:37.200 but still.
00:12:39.320 He's dead.
00:12:40.680 He's dead.
00:12:41.440 Okay.
00:12:43.440 Now,
00:12:44.720 before I ask you this prompt,
00:12:46.820 we have to watch a video.
00:12:47.860 Okay.
00:12:48.060 Yep.
00:12:49.220 Oh,
00:12:49.580 they will?
00:12:50.100 They will.
00:12:50.620 My producers will.
00:12:51.440 All right.
00:12:51.700 So then I would say,
00:12:53.500 yeah,
00:12:53.700 because you're legalizing delusion.
00:12:55.860 Yeah.
00:12:56.240 You're legalizing somebody's private delusions.
00:12:59.280 Yes.
00:13:00.020 And I can't...
00:13:01.240 I can no more affirm transgenderism
00:13:03.460 than I can affirm
00:13:04.080 the voices of a schizophrenic,
00:13:05.860 you know,
00:13:06.260 talking about that.
00:13:06.940 Well,
00:13:07.180 you went above me.
00:13:07.920 Good job.
00:13:08.220 Do you stand by what you said,
00:13:13.160 which gave my channel a strike
00:13:14.980 and removed that episode from YouTube?
00:13:17.420 Now,
00:13:17.940 what did I say?
00:13:18.800 That you shouldn't go along
00:13:20.120 with somebody's delusion
00:13:21.060 like me with a man in my ear?
00:13:22.820 I guess that was it.
00:13:24.760 Did it have to do with transgenderism?
00:13:26.180 Yes.
00:13:27.060 You got...
00:13:27.780 That's so crazy.
00:13:29.100 Of course I said.
00:13:29.420 That on the channel of,
00:13:31.320 you know,
00:13:31.840 eradication,
00:13:32.860 let's eradicate transgenderism,
00:13:34.720 and on the channel,
00:13:36.080 on DW,
00:13:37.140 where,
00:13:37.520 you know,
00:13:37.680 Matt made that big movie about it
00:13:39.680 and where Ben was,
00:13:41.120 you know,
00:13:41.700 getting into scraps with...
00:13:43.280 I gave you that strike.
00:13:44.320 But you gave me a strike.
00:13:45.600 You nearly destroyed my career
00:13:46.880 because you said
00:13:48.040 transgenderism is fake.
00:13:49.340 It's still time.
00:13:50.360 Is it...
00:13:50.660 You know,
00:13:50.980 talk about...
00:13:52.000 Well,
00:13:52.160 hold on.
00:13:52.420 First,
00:13:52.620 you got to answer.
00:13:53.620 Oh,
00:13:53.860 so do I regret it?
00:13:54.880 Yeah.
00:13:55.040 Or do I stand by it?
00:13:56.220 Do you stand...
00:13:56.940 Do you stand by what you said?
00:13:58.340 Okay.
00:14:00.740 Did you answer?
00:14:01.480 Yes.
00:14:02.360 How do you know
00:14:03.180 what I've said?
00:14:03.940 Yes.
00:14:04.240 We've all said yes.
00:14:05.440 Why is no still there?
00:14:06.420 Wait,
00:14:06.520 you can't do both.
00:14:07.440 You can't hedge.
00:14:08.440 Okay.
00:14:08.800 So yes,
00:14:09.400 obviously you stand by it.
00:14:10.120 You know,
00:14:10.300 though,
00:14:10.460 it's amazing how things change.
00:14:12.160 Now,
00:14:12.660 you're like,
00:14:13.080 I think...
00:14:13.760 I think the giant dudes
00:14:15.660 aren't girls.
00:14:17.060 And Aaron's like,
00:14:18.360 uh,
00:14:18.680 yeah,
00:14:19.240 you weirdo.
00:14:20.220 Of course.
00:14:21.240 It is...
00:14:21.820 They don't remember.
00:14:23.020 It is funny.
00:14:23.760 As you get older,
00:14:24.880 you live long enough
00:14:26.640 that you see these things
00:14:28.040 hit culture
00:14:28.760 and feel unstoppable
00:14:29.740 and then peter out.
00:14:31.520 You know?
00:14:31.740 Like,
00:14:31.920 so whatever is happening today,
00:14:33.360 if you're young,
00:14:34.180 you might think,
00:14:35.260 oh,
00:14:35.420 this is the answer
00:14:36.420 to all of life's problems.
00:14:37.800 I'm going to jump in,
00:14:39.020 right?
00:14:39.160 Yeah, yeah.
00:14:39.520 But you live long enough
00:14:40.340 and you go,
00:14:40.700 okay,
00:14:40.900 like,
00:14:41.100 where's the new atheism?
00:14:42.280 Where's BLM?
00:14:43.340 Where's transgenderism?
00:14:44.420 Where's Andrew Tate?
00:14:45.640 Yes.
00:14:46.060 Well,
00:14:46.200 yeah,
00:14:46.420 that's right.
00:14:46.960 One day we're going to wake up
00:14:47.800 and be like,
00:14:48.120 you know,
00:14:48.600 where's Michael Knopf?
00:14:50.100 Yeah,
00:14:50.320 I'll say like,
00:14:51.100 I'll say,
00:14:51.520 and Sonny,
00:14:52.500 back when I was a boy,
00:14:53.960 they gave women driver's licenses.
00:14:55.980 It was like,
00:14:56.260 okay,
00:14:56.540 grandpa,
00:14:56.900 time to get you back
00:14:57.760 to the nursing home now.
00:14:59.060 Like,
00:14:59.220 it should have just been crazy.
00:15:01.860 Anyway,
00:15:02.260 all right,
00:15:02.480 you're up.
00:15:02.600 If I want to go along
00:15:03.320 with that one,
00:15:04.620 I'll get it.
00:15:05.220 No,
00:15:05.480 am I up?
00:15:06.460 Fredston,
00:15:06.960 you're up.
00:15:07.100 All right,
00:15:07.780 here we go.
00:15:09.260 Video,
00:15:09.880 photo prompt,
00:15:10.760 look at image,
00:15:11.960 prompt.
00:15:15.080 If you had a robot,
00:15:16.640 a sex robot,
00:15:17.800 here we go,
00:15:19.200 and it was controlled
00:15:21.360 by a person
00:15:22.260 in another country
00:15:25.000 where prostitution
00:15:26.520 was legal.
00:15:28.100 Okay.
00:15:28.680 But where you were at,
00:15:29.860 it was illegal.
00:15:32.000 But you're having sex
00:15:33.420 with the robot,
00:15:34.600 but the robot
00:15:36.180 is being controlled
00:15:37.180 by a person.
00:15:40.700 Is that illegal?
00:15:42.920 Number one.
00:15:45.120 Number two,
00:15:47.340 if you're a guy
00:15:48.720 and you have sex
00:15:51.220 with a female robot,
00:15:53.400 oh dear,
00:15:53.860 but the female robot
00:15:55.700 is being controlled
00:15:56.620 by another guy.
00:15:59.160 Are you gay?
00:16:02.680 Who is this fella?
00:16:04.620 A great philosopher
00:16:05.600 of our times.
00:16:07.780 Oh, he's still going.
00:16:08.360 But the robot looks like a girl.
00:16:09.360 Like,
00:16:09.540 let's say the robot
00:16:10.120 looks like a girl.
00:16:10.860 Like,
00:16:11.020 are you gay or not?
00:16:15.020 Only if you know
00:16:15.840 it's a guy.
00:16:18.900 All right,
00:16:19.400 I really like that.
00:16:20.260 So basically,
00:16:21.220 it's like a Schrodinger's gay.
00:16:22.920 Is there a question?
00:16:24.540 Yeah,
00:16:24.720 the question is,
00:16:25.300 is it gay?
00:16:26.260 Is what he wants me to ask?
00:16:27.220 Is it gay?
00:16:28.300 So he's not,
00:16:28.880 it's not,
00:16:29.440 the legal part,
00:16:30.340 that was just
00:16:31.020 an amuse-bouche
00:16:31.860 for the meat
00:16:32.540 of our meal,
00:16:33.380 which is,
00:16:34.080 is it gay?
00:16:34.840 If you have sex
00:16:35.680 with a robot.
00:16:37.520 It looks like a Sheila
00:16:38.580 that's being controlled
00:16:39.580 by a fella in France.
00:16:40.940 Yes,
00:16:41.360 is that gay?
00:16:42.340 No,
00:16:42.860 it's depraved.
00:16:43.880 Hold on,
00:16:44.200 wait,
00:16:44.380 hold on,
00:16:44.600 now I have to,
00:16:45.020 oh,
00:16:45.280 sorry.
00:16:46.260 Wow,
00:16:46.780 I'm gonna guess.
00:16:47.300 Yeah,
00:16:47.940 definitely gay.
00:16:48.280 I'm gonna guess,
00:16:49.400 I'm gonna guess
00:16:51.440 what you would answer.
00:16:53.200 I'm guessing for myself?
00:16:54.580 Oh,
00:16:54.800 I'm gonna give my answer.
00:16:55.780 I didn't say so much.
00:16:56.460 Okay,
00:16:56.900 I'm giving my answer.
00:16:57.580 You have to guess
00:16:58.220 how I would answer.
00:16:58.940 You got off
00:16:59.740 on a technicality there.
00:17:00.880 I did,
00:17:01.340 yeah,
00:17:01.540 all right,
00:17:01.960 there you go.
00:17:03.300 You're wrong.
00:17:03.880 Okay.
00:17:04.300 You know why?
00:17:04.980 You think it's,
00:17:05.940 yeah,
00:17:06.160 I think it's gay.
00:17:06.580 Homosexual?
00:17:07.440 Yeah.
00:17:07.560 Or using the word
00:17:08.060 gay in a different sense?
00:17:09.000 No,
00:17:09.200 I think it's gay
00:17:09.780 because it's effective,
00:17:10.980 well,
00:17:11.300 I'm additionally using
00:17:15.020 it's essentially
00:17:16.800 masturbation,
00:17:17.680 which is gay.
00:17:18.800 Well,
00:17:19.300 okay,
00:17:19.700 I mean,
00:17:19.940 you gotta stretch
00:17:20.540 the word a little bit.
00:17:21.380 What do you mean by gay?
00:17:22.360 What do I mean by masturbation?
00:17:23.760 I can describe it
00:17:25.120 and it's pretty gay.
00:17:25.820 That's all right.
00:17:26.400 I can,
00:17:26.880 it's pretty gay.
00:17:27.460 This is that joke
00:17:28.220 who says,
00:17:29.140 well,
00:17:29.600 we won't go into it.
00:17:30.340 Yeah,
00:17:30.700 but that's gay.
00:17:31.300 It's a very funny joke.
00:17:31.780 And then,
00:17:32.660 the other reason,
00:17:33.640 in the more expanded sense
00:17:34.780 I would say it's gay
00:17:35.380 is because it's a sterile
00:17:36.940 sexual act,
00:17:38.480 which is gay.
00:17:39.540 So what you call
00:17:40.080 contraception gay?
00:17:41.120 Yeah.
00:17:41.440 So man's having sex
00:17:42.420 with his wife.
00:17:43.180 Yeah.
00:17:44.080 And they're just
00:17:44.900 good Protestants
00:17:45.720 and you're like,
00:17:46.280 he's gay.
00:17:48.120 Yeah,
00:17:48.440 kind of.
00:17:48.840 It's gay.
00:17:49.520 It's,
00:17:50.000 if you,
00:17:50.840 I mean,
00:17:52.340 I hate to offend people
00:17:53.220 out there,
00:17:53.480 but like if you do that,
00:17:54.780 if you gelled yourself,
00:17:55.940 for instance.
00:17:56.540 What does that mean?
00:17:57.300 You know,
00:17:57.640 do a little like,
00:17:59.200 oh,
00:17:59.520 if you get the snip,
00:18:00.440 snippety snip.
00:18:01.060 Yeah,
00:18:01.300 I think,
00:18:02.100 again,
00:18:02.360 I know people,
00:18:02.940 look,
00:18:03.040 it's a crazy world,
00:18:03.880 it's a fault.
00:18:04.200 Look,
00:18:04.320 I went to Yale,
00:18:05.040 so we don't need to talk
00:18:06.240 about you're gay,
00:18:07.040 you're gay,
00:18:07.540 but it's gay.
00:18:09.300 That's gay
00:18:09.880 because it's not
00:18:10.580 the chief feature
00:18:12.680 of gayness,
00:18:13.860 I think is sterility.
00:18:15.780 That it's a fruitless,
00:18:17.920 unfecund union
00:18:19.540 and that is contraception.
00:18:22.100 But you wouldn't say
00:18:22.660 a fellow who has sex
00:18:23.640 with his post-menopausal
00:18:24.660 wife is gay,
00:18:25.460 he would just say,
00:18:26.260 he's acting in a way
00:18:27.160 that ought to bring
00:18:27.880 forth life,
00:18:28.700 but it just so happens.
00:18:29.160 Yeah,
00:18:29.360 the action is still
00:18:30.300 ought to bring.
00:18:30.460 So he's accidentally gay
00:18:31.560 or is he too gay?
00:18:32.180 He's,
00:18:32.460 no,
00:18:32.680 he's not,
00:18:33.120 yeah,
00:18:33.400 he might,
00:18:33.920 you know,
00:18:34.200 he's like one of those,
00:18:35.200 I had a few too many
00:18:36.140 and you know,
00:18:36.960 the guy at the bar
00:18:37.780 looked a little way fish.
00:18:38.860 No,
00:18:39.380 what I'm saying is
00:18:39.980 that action,
00:18:40.960 the post-menopausal wife,
00:18:42.080 that is ordered toward
00:18:43.860 procreation.
00:18:45.260 And in the,
00:18:45.640 I don't know,
00:18:45.920 maybe she's like Sarah,
00:18:46.720 you know,
00:18:46.900 and maybe something happens
00:18:47.900 and she gives birth.
00:18:48.880 Whereas,
00:18:49.780 I think that sex-
00:18:50.780 I think you could call it
00:18:51.500 gay by extension,
00:18:52.740 but not gay first and foremost.
00:18:54.420 If a man's having sex with,
00:18:56.200 well,
00:18:56.440 first of all,
00:18:56.760 it's not sex.
00:18:57.460 It's funny how we use
00:18:58.200 the word sex to mean
00:18:59.040 self-abuse or all sorts
00:19:00.280 of depraved things.
00:19:01.320 It's not sex,
00:19:01.960 but if he's engaging
00:19:03.340 in a sexual act
00:19:04.580 with a machine,
00:19:06.280 I wouldn't call that gay,
00:19:07.700 except maybe by extension.
00:19:08.980 I see where you're coming from,
00:19:10.020 but I would just say
00:19:10.700 it's a,
00:19:11.380 it would be like an,
00:19:12.440 it would be an action
00:19:13.100 of self-abuse,
00:19:14.000 wouldn't it?
00:19:14.720 Yes,
00:19:15.160 which again,
00:19:15.840 I would say self-abuse
00:19:17.640 is very literally gay.
00:19:19.720 And in this case,
00:19:21.980 the only human beings
00:19:23.200 that he's engaging with,
00:19:24.280 other than this like
00:19:25.120 jumble of metal
00:19:26.260 and,
00:19:26.980 I don't know,
00:19:27.420 it's like jagged,
00:19:28.200 that sounds very unpleasant,
00:19:29.380 but the only human beings
00:19:31.060 he's engaging with
00:19:31.700 are either just himself,
00:19:32.960 a guy,
00:19:33.900 gay,
00:19:34.360 or some other guy,
00:19:35.920 you know,
00:19:36.240 controlling the robot,
00:19:37.700 gay.
00:19:38.300 So to me,
00:19:39.140 you know,
00:19:39.360 and it's like,
00:19:40.140 it's,
00:19:42.280 look,
00:19:42.720 gay just means happy too.
00:19:44.000 So we're already using
00:19:44.940 a word that is itself
00:19:45.960 a euphemism.
00:19:46.560 So you say,
00:19:46.980 why is it,
00:19:47.360 you know,
00:19:47.500 when you're on a middle school
00:19:49.120 in the playground,
00:19:50.080 they're like,
00:19:50.280 that's gay.
00:19:50.900 And they don't,
00:19:51.280 they're not referring to any,
00:19:52.900 you know,
00:19:53.320 light in the loafers,
00:19:53.940 cold border kind of activities.
00:19:55.000 So you say like,
00:19:55.780 well,
00:19:56.020 what,
00:19:56.280 what do you mean by that?
00:19:57.540 And you mean something
00:19:58.400 that's kind of.
00:19:59.540 How do you feel about gay
00:20:00.480 coming back in that sense?
00:20:02.120 Yeah,
00:20:02.300 I think it's good.
00:20:03.380 I,
00:20:03.520 I think it's good.
00:20:04.860 Not that gay is coming back.
00:20:06.120 But I know,
00:20:06.840 that's going to be clipped.
00:20:07.780 How do you feel about gay coming back?
00:20:09.120 Like,
00:20:09.300 it's great.
00:20:09.820 I love it.
00:20:10.520 I know people with same-sex attraction
00:20:12.240 and do worry
00:20:13.340 that they find that
00:20:15.060 deeply offensive
00:20:16.200 to them.
00:20:17.700 I don't know.
00:20:18.480 I mean,
00:20:18.780 listen,
00:20:19.460 look,
00:20:19.800 I'm from New York.
00:20:20.500 I lived in LA,
00:20:21.440 worked in show business,
00:20:22.340 went to Yale.
00:20:22.960 I have like,
00:20:24.620 a radically disproportionate
00:20:25.900 number of friends of mine
00:20:26.820 who are a little,
00:20:27.780 how should we say,
00:20:29.840 a little
00:20:30.320 gay-centric.
00:20:31.680 Friends of Dorothy,
00:20:32.760 shall we say,
00:20:33.240 you know,
00:20:33.460 kind of fella has a long handshake,
00:20:35.140 let's put it that way.
00:20:36.320 And what I'm,
00:20:37.640 the ones,
00:20:38.460 at least I don't know,
00:20:38.920 the ones that I'm friends with,
00:20:40.200 they're like,
00:20:40.640 that's gay.
00:20:41.100 They don't care.
00:20:42.040 They don't,
00:20:42.320 you know,
00:20:42.600 they're,
00:20:43.500 they'll come around.
00:20:44.480 And they would not have sex
00:20:45.580 with a robot.
00:20:46.360 At least mine,
00:20:47.060 you know.
00:20:47.440 Well,
00:20:47.600 that's good.
00:20:48.100 So,
00:20:48.380 what do we conclude here?
00:20:49.640 Having sex with a robot,
00:20:50.840 you would say is gay.
00:20:51.900 I would say gay by extension,
00:20:53.560 but not primarily gay.
00:20:54.640 Gay by extension.
00:20:55.920 Yeah.
00:20:56.420 No,
00:20:56.660 okay,
00:20:56.880 no,
00:20:57.040 you know what I actually
00:20:57.540 do want to tell you about?
00:20:58.500 I want to tell you about
00:20:59.520 a very,
00:21:00.120 very good organization
00:21:01.060 called Preborn.
00:21:02.220 There's new research
00:21:03.000 that reveals something
00:21:04.180 truly heartbreaking
00:21:05.020 more than 7 million
00:21:05.860 American women are dealing with,
00:21:07.480 severe,
00:21:08.620 long-lasting emotional pain
00:21:09.800 after having an abortion.
00:21:11.540 Grief,
00:21:12.000 flashbacks,
00:21:12.700 and a deep regret
00:21:13.540 that for many,
00:21:14.860 never really goes away.
00:21:16.220 Our sponsors of
00:21:16.860 Preborn see the suffering
00:21:17.840 up close every day
00:21:18.840 in the thousands of clinics
00:21:19.960 they support across the country.
00:21:21.780 Here is some good news.
00:21:22.720 There is hope.
00:21:23.900 When a woman sees her baby
00:21:25.060 on an ultrasound,
00:21:25.940 everything shifts.
00:21:27.220 Suddenly,
00:21:27.660 her baby's chance
00:21:28.720 at life doubles.
00:21:30.100 For just $28,
00:21:31.060 you can sponsor that ultrasound
00:21:32.060 and potentially change
00:21:33.120 a life forever.
00:21:33.940 This is an organization
00:21:34.920 that I personally support.
00:21:36.420 I strongly recommend
00:21:37.460 you give whatever you can.
00:21:39.840 They offer not only
00:21:40.620 the ultrasounds,
00:21:41.280 but compassionate,
00:21:41.960 canceling,
00:21:42.780 care for the woman.
00:21:43.540 To donate,
00:21:44.020 dial pound 250,
00:21:44.840 say keyword baby.
00:21:46.120 That's pound 250,
00:21:47.040 keyword baby,
00:21:47.620 or go online
00:21:48.100 to preborn.com
00:21:48.820 slash Knowles,

00:21:50.380 That's preborn.com
00:21:51.680 slash Knowles.
00:21:53.380 Now, Mr. Fradd,
00:21:55.200 it's time
00:21:56.040 for the rapid fire round.
00:22:01.060 Three questions,
00:22:02.420 30 seconds,
00:22:03.140 no time to outthink each other.
00:22:05.040 Let's go.
00:22:05.640 Right now,
00:22:05.920 the score is Michael,
00:22:07.400 three.
00:22:07.800 Do I pick this one?
00:22:08.600 Matt,
00:22:09.220 negative one.
00:22:10.560 Did your accent contribute
00:22:11.620 to your career success?
00:22:13.940 Yes, probably.
00:22:14.560 Obviously.
00:22:15.360 What else do I have?
00:22:16.060 Have you worn the,
00:22:17.240 have you worn the yarmulke
00:22:18.340 since your viral video?
00:22:20.640 Every day when you're
00:22:21.520 rapping to fill in.
00:22:22.380 No, wait, what?
00:22:23.380 It's a goodwill.
00:22:24.500 It's a good,
00:22:24.840 I gave up a point
00:22:26.980 just for that answer.
00:22:28.380 Do you think women
00:22:29.060 selling their feet pics
00:22:30.320 to men is pornography?
00:22:32.300 Is there a middle button?
00:22:34.980 Yeah, I've answered.
00:22:37.800 Yes.
00:22:38.580 It appeals to the prurient interest.
00:22:39.740 I think it's pornography
00:22:40.600 subjectively,
00:22:41.420 but not objectively.
00:22:42.420 So I think that pornography
00:22:43.260 is material
00:22:45.100 which depicts erotic behavior
00:22:46.280 which is intended
00:22:46.960 to sexually arouse.
00:22:48.740 I don't think
00:22:49.560 it's objectively pornographic,
00:22:51.200 but I think it's received
00:22:52.000 subjectively as pornographic.
00:22:53.380 So I'd say, yeah, sure.
00:22:54.280 Yeah, and they're paying.
00:22:55.400 They're not paying
00:22:55.820 for any other reason
00:22:56.460 except to use it
00:22:57.260 as a method
00:22:58.800 by which to do something gay.
00:23:00.560 Yes, that was one time
00:23:02.080 I had Brett Cooper
00:23:02.900 on the show
00:23:03.520 and I mentioned,
00:23:04.580 I forget if I was wearing
00:23:05.640 like sockless loafers
00:23:06.540 and she goes,
00:23:06.960 Michael,
00:23:07.520 she goes,
00:23:08.140 you're just giving it away
00:23:09.220 for free?
00:23:10.080 You gotta sell that.
00:23:12.320 Yes, it's obviously
00:23:13.140 like if I was into shoulders
00:23:15.200 or something
00:23:15.860 and I was like,
00:23:17.860 a picture of a shoulder
00:23:18.980 is not objectively pornographic
00:23:20.700 or obscene,
00:23:21.500 but if I'm paying for it,
00:23:24.240 it's doing something.
00:23:25.620 It's doing something for me.
00:23:26.720 Okay.
00:23:28.080 Here you go.
00:23:28.620 You're up.
00:23:29.200 Interestingly enough,
00:23:29.840 I think the opposite
00:23:30.340 is also true.
00:23:31.140 I think that you can have
00:23:31.900 something that's objectively
00:23:32.640 pornography
00:23:33.000 but isn't received
00:23:33.760 subjectively as pornography.
00:23:34.800 We can talk about that
00:23:35.280 another day.
00:23:35.660 Ready?
00:23:36.000 Like for gay guys,
00:23:37.200 like naked ladies
00:23:38.020 would be objectively pornography.
00:23:39.440 I was thinking more
00:23:40.200 like a police officer
00:23:40.980 who had to review
00:23:41.800 like an abuse victim.
00:23:43.880 But sure,
00:23:44.180 we can do it for gay guys.
00:23:44.320 Oh, you're saying stuff
00:23:45.060 that would otherwise
00:23:47.700 be objectively pornographic.
00:23:49.320 Oh, 100%.
00:23:49.960 Yeah.
00:23:50.280 I think you can look
00:23:51.100 at pornography
00:23:51.540 and not sin, clearly.
00:23:53.440 Yes, that's true.
00:23:54.420 So that's why I like
00:23:54.900 to make the distinction
00:23:55.400 between looking
00:23:55.920 and consuming.
00:23:56.820 Consuming would imply
00:23:57.880 receiving the pornography
00:24:00.420 in the way in which
00:24:01.920 it was intended
00:24:02.760 to be received.
00:24:03.580 This is like,
00:24:04.220 you know.
00:24:04.400 I really love this.
00:24:04.980 This is like when
00:24:05.540 your uncle's like,
00:24:06.320 yeah, I read Playboy
00:24:07.360 for the articles.
00:24:08.200 It's just casual
00:24:09.080 sort of perusal.
00:24:10.060 Okay.
00:24:10.440 Well, think of a mother
00:24:11.140 who finds her child's
00:24:12.420 stash of pornography
00:24:13.100 because we're old,
00:24:13.780 so back in the 90s.
00:24:14.700 She might be horrified
00:24:15.660 at what her son has seen,
00:24:17.120 but she's not actually
00:24:18.100 consuming the pornography.
00:24:19.240 Let's try.
00:24:19.660 I hope not.
00:24:20.100 All right, here we go.
00:24:20.840 Ready?
00:24:23.040 Drinking more than
00:24:23.820 three alcoholic beverages
00:24:24.840 in an hour
00:24:25.420 is a sin in the eyes
00:24:26.440 of our Lord.
00:24:29.320 I said no.
00:24:30.720 You said no.
00:24:31.260 I would say maybe yes.
00:24:32.400 Because I think it would depend
00:24:33.220 on your constitution.
00:24:34.820 If you could have,
00:24:35.520 I mean, I could have 30,
00:24:36.540 you know, drinks in a day
00:24:38.220 and not sin, maybe.
00:24:39.980 Right.
00:24:40.180 But like,
00:24:41.040 I think it's hard
00:24:42.100 to have three drinks
00:24:42.980 in an hour
00:24:43.420 and not be drunk.
00:24:45.180 And isn't getting drunk
00:24:46.100 a sin?
00:24:46.460 Yeah.
00:24:47.140 Getting drunk
00:24:47.740 is definitely a sin.
00:24:49.760 Aquinas calls alcoholics,
00:24:51.520 getting drunk once,
00:24:52.540 he calls you a drunkard.
00:24:53.840 So it's definitely a sin.
00:24:55.280 I just think that
00:24:55.940 it depends on someone.
00:24:57.200 The Australians
00:24:57.640 can handle three in an hour.
00:24:58.700 Three beers in an hour
00:24:59.320 and that'd be fun.
00:24:59.820 All right, next question.
00:25:00.940 So I lost that, did I?
00:25:02.080 You did.
00:25:02.460 Great.
00:25:02.640 Thank goodness.
00:25:02.980 Do you prefer a debate
00:25:04.960 between someone
00:25:06.140 who is orthodox
00:25:06.960 over a Protestant?
00:25:07.880 Do you prefer a debate
00:25:08.740 between someone
00:25:09.400 who is orthodox
00:25:10.060 over a Protestant?
00:25:10.840 I don't even really know
00:25:12.560 what that's asking.
00:25:13.760 I'll rephrase it.
00:25:14.780 Would you prefer
00:25:15.440 to debate
00:25:16.420 someone who is orthodox
00:25:19.160 over a Protestant?
00:25:21.760 Would you prefer that?
00:25:23.560 I'm going to say
00:25:24.380 that you would say
00:25:25.440 no.
00:25:26.320 I said yes.
00:25:27.120 Do you know why?
00:25:27.540 Because we have more
00:25:28.000 shared ground.
00:25:29.040 Okay.
00:25:29.400 Whereas if I debate
00:25:30.320 a Protestant,
00:25:31.180 you know,
00:25:31.440 Protestant is just,
00:25:32.460 it's a negative category.
00:25:34.000 That's what I was telling
00:25:34.440 John Chris yesterday.
00:25:35.220 Yeah, I mean,
00:25:35.860 what are you protesting
00:25:36.740 against, John?
00:25:37.540 Yeah, yeah.
00:25:38.440 Definitely, you know,
00:25:39.140 the guy in the Mozzetta
00:25:40.040 in Rome.
00:25:40.900 But other than that,
00:25:41.660 it's like,
00:25:42.360 I don't,
00:25:42.820 it's a moving target
00:25:43.680 because I say,
00:25:44.300 okay, well,
00:25:45.160 Martin Luther said this.
00:25:46.680 I say, well,
00:25:46.920 I don't agree with that.
00:25:47.520 Or John Calvin said this.
00:25:48.400 I don't agree with that.
00:25:49.000 At least with the Eastern Orthodox,
00:25:50.300 they're also kind of divided.
00:25:51.580 But you could say like,
00:25:52.180 all right,
00:25:52.460 let's talk about
00:25:52.940 the filioque.
00:25:53.760 Okay.
00:25:54.120 Let's dig into
00:25:54.740 the filioque,
00:25:55.860 Mr. Beard.
00:25:56.840 Okay.
00:25:57.500 All right.
00:25:58.840 Is Sharia
00:26:00.140 less compatible
00:26:01.280 with Christian,
00:26:02.880 hang on,
00:26:03.820 what is this?
00:26:05.860 Sharia?
00:26:07.660 Sharia?
00:26:08.320 How do I say this?
00:26:08.900 Like Sharia law?
00:26:10.120 Oh, that's what,
00:26:10.600 so I got it right.
00:26:11.320 Okay.
00:26:11.780 You're so Catholic.
00:26:13.140 But why is he saying,
00:26:14.060 why wouldn't he say
00:26:14.900 is Sharia law?
00:26:15.760 Is Sharia less compatible
00:26:17.340 with a Christian country
00:26:18.620 than liberalism?
00:26:19.780 Oh, okay.
00:26:20.840 Hold on.
00:26:21.260 Now, again,
00:26:21.860 because of the illiteracy
00:26:23.560 that pervades these questions.
00:26:25.340 Yeah.
00:26:26.520 Is it,
00:26:27.340 is Sharia less compatible
00:26:28.820 with a Christian country
00:26:30.440 than liberalism is?
00:26:32.380 Or is it,
00:26:33.460 is Sharia less compatible
00:26:34.780 with a Christian country
00:26:38.340 than it is
00:26:39.060 with liberalism?
00:26:40.600 I don't know
00:26:41.840 what they're saying.
00:26:42.760 I don't know
00:26:43.600 that they know
00:26:44.220 what they're saying.
00:26:45.380 I'm going to read it as,
00:26:46.400 okay.
00:26:46.980 Is Sharia less compatible
00:26:48.440 than liberalism
00:26:49.260 with a Christian country?
00:26:50.300 All right.
00:26:52.460 Okay.
00:26:53.580 I don't know.
00:26:54.300 Yes?
00:26:55.120 Yes.
00:26:55.420 All right.
00:26:55.680 Yeah, it is, right?
00:26:56.780 It's just liberalism
00:26:57.800 is a perversion
00:26:59.100 of Christianity
00:26:59.620 and it comes out
00:27:00.560 of Protestantism
00:27:02.080 and Protestantism
00:27:02.920 comes out of Christendom
00:27:03.860 and Christendom.
00:27:04.740 You know,
00:27:05.100 it's just like,
00:27:05.560 it's all kind of a piece.
00:27:07.400 All right.
00:27:07.660 Whereas the Muslims,
00:27:09.260 they just take like
00:27:10.320 a Nestorian heresy
00:27:11.600 and then turn it
00:27:13.020 into Arab nationalism
00:27:14.040 and, you know,
00:27:16.380 chop people's heads off.
00:27:17.280 It's just a different situation.
00:27:18.760 All right.
00:27:19.120 Fair enough.
00:27:20.520 Folks,
00:27:21.020 do not forget,
00:27:21.800 you can bring
00:27:22.600 yes or no home.
00:27:24.420 Say yes.
00:27:25.000 Don't say no.
00:27:25.640 Say yes to yes or no.
00:27:26.680 I don't want to boast.
00:27:28.640 This is the best-selling game
00:27:30.700 and the most important game
00:27:32.860 at the Daily Wire.
00:27:34.120 And it's not even the only game.
00:27:35.520 They actually,
00:27:35.960 other people tried to rip me off
00:27:37.280 like Matt Walsh
00:27:38.040 and,
00:27:38.400 but it's still the best-selling game.
00:27:39.900 It is based
00:27:40.660 on my hit internet game show,
00:27:42.740 200 cards covering everything
00:27:44.180 from matters of taste
00:27:45.460 to the most profound subjects.
00:27:47.540 You can play with up to nine people,
00:27:49.040 which makes it perfect
00:27:49.740 for dinner parties
00:27:50.380 or family gatherings
00:27:51.160 when you want to find out
00:27:52.460 how well you know
00:27:53.620 the people around you.
00:27:54.940 Can you predict
00:27:55.460 a loved one's stance
00:27:56.240 on whether sacred tradition matters,
00:27:58.640 if feminism has made women miserable,
00:28:01.260 whether birds or drones
00:28:02.660 operated by the U.S. government
00:28:03.820 to spy on citizens?
00:28:05.180 These are the important questions
00:28:06.500 that define us, Matt.
00:28:08.260 But the party doesn't end there.
00:28:10.200 We've got expansion packs
00:28:11.380 with even more hotly debated topics.
00:28:14.000 We've got here,
00:28:14.680 oh, this one's upside down
00:28:15.560 the whole time.
00:28:16.140 We've got,
00:28:16.720 we've got the politics,
00:28:18.500 philosophy, and religion pack.
00:28:19.980 We've got the dating
00:28:21.360 and relationships pack.
00:28:22.740 We've got the conspiracy theory pack.
00:28:24.400 That one's my favorite one.
00:28:25.360 You get it all
00:28:26.620 at dailywire.com slash shop.
00:28:29.320 You head on over there right now.
00:28:30.740 You pick up yes or no today, Matt.
00:28:34.780 I couldn't tell if you were
00:28:35.880 having a shot at Matt Walsh or me.
00:28:37.380 I mean, he...
00:28:37.800 I know, it's very confusing now.
00:28:40.460 Why not both?
00:28:41.660 It's time for the final round.
00:28:44.820 The prompt will be read.
00:28:48.820 We will both look at our answers.
00:28:50.620 We'll lock in our answers.
00:28:52.440 Then we will move our glasses
00:28:53.820 to yes or no
00:28:55.000 to see if we can read
00:28:56.340 each other's minds.
00:28:57.920 This round is worth
00:28:59.160 double points.
00:29:00.380 Oh, good.
00:29:01.500 It's unfailable.
00:29:02.540 I know, I don't...
00:29:03.480 The thing in the prompter
00:29:04.860 says it could change everything.
00:29:06.120 I think I just won, though.
00:29:07.280 I don't think it's possible
00:29:08.160 for you to win at this point.
00:29:09.220 Nice.
00:29:09.600 But watch anyway.
00:29:12.620 Oh, yeah.
00:29:13.060 Do you believe
00:29:13.940 non-believers are fair game,
00:29:17.320 but that Matthew 18, 15 to 17
00:29:19.600 requires a private DM
00:29:21.080 before calling out
00:29:23.000 a fellow Christian's sin publicly
00:29:25.120 or a fellow Christian's false teaching
00:29:27.700 that's already been posted openly on X.
00:29:30.260 Can we call out people
00:29:31.780 without going to them directly
00:29:33.240 because they're non-believers,
00:29:34.240 but if they were a Christian,
00:29:35.200 should we approach them first?
00:29:36.300 Is that what he's saying?
00:29:37.820 Sure.
00:29:39.140 All right.
00:29:40.780 Oh, that's interesting.
00:29:42.200 Yeah, okay.
00:29:42.680 So I would say,
00:29:43.500 I would, yeah, I would say that.
00:29:46.120 You would say yes.
00:29:47.220 No, I would say no.
00:29:48.340 Okay.
00:29:48.740 That's good for me to know
00:29:49.760 when I move your glass.
00:29:52.480 Oh.
00:29:53.620 Was I supposed to press that?
00:29:55.840 Yeah, you lock in your answer.
00:29:57.220 That's okay.
00:29:57.620 Don't worry about it, though.
00:29:58.540 So it's with double points.
00:29:59.900 So I would say...
00:30:02.240 No, I think the general principle,
00:30:04.040 doesn't that hold
00:30:04.680 for like atheists
00:30:06.160 and Mohammedans and Jews?
00:30:08.600 Yeah, they're not,
00:30:09.100 we're not just going to reduce them
00:30:10.640 to like moral dimitude or something.
00:30:12.340 Okay, fine.
00:30:12.720 You can kind of attack them publicly.
00:30:13.760 But maybe, what if I just secretly press yes?
00:30:16.060 You got to move.
00:30:16.660 I can see it.
00:30:17.520 I can see that you didn't.
00:30:18.600 All right.
00:30:19.080 What do I do?
00:30:21.180 You move mine to yes.
00:30:23.340 No, I'm going to...
00:30:24.720 Correct.
00:30:26.600 Oh, it's like I let you lure me.
00:30:28.140 Also, we got to move this box.
00:30:29.540 He can see my answers.
00:30:30.440 I didn't mean to.
00:30:31.240 This is so ridiculous.
00:30:32.780 Okay, you're up.
00:30:33.500 All right.
00:30:33.720 Will the end times
00:30:36.480 as described in the Bible
00:30:38.280 involve AI?
00:30:41.980 So, okay, we lock in first.
00:30:43.500 Okay.
00:30:45.280 Uh...
00:30:45.760 Uh...
00:30:46.760 Uh...
00:30:47.760 I don't know what that means.
00:30:49.820 Sure.
00:30:50.240 Okay.
00:30:50.740 Um...
00:30:51.460 I'm really bad at this game, dude.
00:30:54.560 Yes.
00:30:54.940 Did you say yes?
00:30:55.660 Yes.
00:30:55.940 Yeah, I guess.
00:30:56.640 It'll involve it in some capacity.
00:30:58.260 It'll probably involve...
00:30:58.760 Whether it'll be the main character or not,
00:31:00.300 I don't know, but...
00:31:01.060 Yeah.
00:31:01.220 I don't think he's going anywhere.
00:31:02.200 It's not going...
00:31:02.680 It's like it'll involve polo shirts.
00:31:04.400 Remember that line from Dwight Schrute
00:31:06.540 who says once this internet thing is over?
00:31:09.040 And I just thought...
00:31:10.000 I don't think the internet thing is going to be over.
00:31:11.720 Do you think, though,
00:31:13.880 to make that dumb question better,
00:31:16.340 do you think that...
00:31:18.180 Will AI be like a big part of it?
00:31:22.620 When the history...
00:31:23.480 Well, the history won't be written
00:31:24.400 because we'll all be singing...
00:31:25.100 I have no idea.
00:31:26.140 What do you think?
00:31:26.680 Do you have a strong opinion on it?
00:31:27.440 So, some people think that AI is the antichrist
00:31:32.380 or something associated with AI will be the antichrist.
00:31:34.860 Peter Thiel has given public lectures
00:31:36.800 in which he states the opposite.
00:31:38.680 Peter Thiel, who's a big AI guy,
00:31:40.200 Peter Thiel says that,
00:31:41.800 no, the antichrist is more likely to come about
00:31:44.800 from trying to restrict AI,
00:31:47.140 which is kind of convenient, you know,
00:31:48.580 because he's got a big AI company.
00:31:50.000 And so it's like a good marketing argument.
00:31:51.920 Yeah, it's excellent.
00:31:52.360 But Peter Thiel is a very intelligent,
00:31:54.900 very thoughtful person.
00:31:55.640 And so, you know,
00:31:57.060 I think you have to take the argument head on.
00:31:59.380 And I don't know.
00:32:00.860 That's definitely the more libertarian side.
00:32:02.440 It's like all the bad stuff
00:32:03.180 comes from the government doing anything.
00:32:05.400 And...
00:32:05.600 But I don't know.
00:32:07.440 Like, if the AI told me like,
00:32:09.440 hey, if you try to regulate me,
00:32:11.440 that'll bring about the antichrist.
00:32:13.080 I'd be like, you know,
00:32:13.520 that sounds a lot like something
00:32:15.040 the antichrist would say.
00:32:16.760 It does seem like a truly false god
00:32:18.840 and certainly at least
00:32:20.540 a modern day Tower of Babel.
00:32:23.020 So, it even pertains, you know,
00:32:27.620 fundamentally to language.
00:32:28.960 So, like, it does...
00:32:30.600 AI seems kind of special.
00:32:32.840 I'm a Luddite generally,
00:32:33.980 but I think as far as
00:32:35.200 technological innovations go,
00:32:36.320 this one is particularly scary.
00:32:38.400 I don't know what it'll look like
00:32:39.420 in the end times.
00:32:40.140 I don't know when the end times will be.
00:32:41.420 So, that's really hard to talk about.
00:32:43.160 One of the near future things,
00:32:44.700 results I see happening with AI
00:32:46.500 is people, all of us,
00:32:48.320 will start to distrust
00:32:49.240 what we're watching.
00:32:50.040 And that will include podcasts.
00:32:51.620 I imagine very shortly,
00:32:52.980 you'll be able to watch
00:32:53.860 an entire podcast
00:32:54.600 from your favorite host
00:32:55.540 and it won't be him
00:32:56.200 and it won't be what he wrote or said.
00:32:57.940 Yeah.
00:32:58.300 And I think because of that,
00:32:59.820 in-person events will...
00:33:01.860 The demand for them will skyrocket.
00:33:03.300 And so, the prices to go and watch
00:33:04.760 Seinfeld or Metallica
00:33:06.160 or Nate Bargatze or whoever
00:33:07.580 will go through the roof
00:33:09.120 because we all just want to be together.
00:33:10.380 What if I told you
00:33:11.600 and what if I told you
00:33:13.900 that I am an AI
00:33:17.060 and I'm not really here?
00:33:20.840 And this is where the editors
00:33:22.140 will edit me out.
00:33:23.620 I see.
00:33:23.940 And I'll become like a cloud
00:33:25.320 of technology.
00:33:27.400 And then they'll bring it back
00:33:28.860 and I'll like,
00:33:29.460 vroom, back in.
00:33:30.500 And then I'll say,
00:33:31.560 go check out Pints with Aquinas
00:33:33.140 on Daily Wire, YouTube,
00:33:34.500 or wherever you listen to podcasts.
00:33:36.820 I won.
00:33:37.520 I look forward to your
00:33:38.380 obsequious advertisement.
00:33:40.040 That'll be nice.
00:33:40.720 I'm a robot.
00:33:42.720 See you next time
00:33:43.740 on Yes or No.
00:33:46.980 And this is where the editors
00:33:48.300 will edit me out.
00:33:49.780 I see.
00:33:50.100 And I'll become like a cloud
00:33:51.480 of technology.
00:33:53.560 And then they'll bring it back
00:33:55.020 and I'll like,
00:33:55.620 vroom, back in.
00:33:56.580 And then I'll say...
