00:00:32.960 Look at that.

00:00:33.920 How do you like that?

00:00:34.500 That's almost the exact number I gave.

00:00:36.280 What they're saying is 72% of that group are saying we're heterosexual.

00:00:39.000 Hold on.

00:00:39.500 Wait, it is now gayer than one in five?

00:00:42.780 Yeah.

00:00:43.680 Apparently.

00:00:44.480 That can't be real.

00:00:45.940 The libs have gone wild, and it's no longer confined to the red light districts of Portland.

00:00:50.300 It's being spread all over the Senate hearing room floor.

00:00:53.520 It's going topless on the White House lawn, and maybe most disturbingly,

00:00:56.980 all of this degeneracy is being posted all over TikTok.

00:00:59.700 Now, who would know more about this phenomenon on TikTok than the person who made their name

00:01:04.860 covering such clips?

00:01:06.520 Michael Knowles, whose whole show is basically reacting to clips from libs of TikTok.

00:01:10.840 But does he know more about woke lingo, culture, and degeneracy than Kaya Rechik, who actually lives with TikTok?

00:01:18.600 We're going to find out in this episode of Face Off.

00:01:21.040 Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for coming on the show.

00:01:27.800 Thank you for having me on my own show, Ben.

00:01:30.200 And Kaya, thank you very much for coming on.

00:01:32.580 And I can't tell who has more of an advantage on this, because you obviously are the source of all of these great lib videos.

00:01:41.640 But I shamelessly steal them every single day, and you end up writing like a third of my show.

00:01:48.040 So I can't tell.

00:01:49.540 I might have spent more time with your content than you have.

00:01:52.480 I sometimes have to do so much research into this stuff.

00:01:57.920 And there's so many genders and sexualities and stuff.

00:02:01.800 I sometimes have to watch a video literally 25 times, I'm not even exaggerating, before I post it.

00:02:07.400 Because it's so freaking confusing.

00:02:10.040 And I mean, the definitions change daily.

00:02:12.720 And there's new flags and new terms every single day.

00:02:16.360 It's so hard to keep up.

00:02:17.280 So I'm a little nervous, I've got to say.

00:02:19.320 It was extremely confusing coming up with each question for this episode.

00:02:24.040 But what's not confusing are the instructions for how we're going to play face-off.

00:02:27.720 Are you ready?

00:02:28.700 I'm ready.

00:02:29.360 Yeah.

00:02:30.000 Question one.

00:02:31.600 What is a TERF?

00:02:35.720 We thought we'd warm up with an easy one, you know?

00:02:37.480 Get the ball rolling.

00:02:38.920 Ten seconds.

00:02:40.420 This is taking Michael a long time.

00:02:42.340 Yeah, you might have an advantage on this one.

00:02:45.140 All right, Kaya, what do you got?

00:02:46.300 Trine's exclusionary radical feminist.

00:02:48.900 Michael.

00:02:49.520 I have the same answer, but I, here, I'll get it on camera.

00:02:52.600 But I also drew a little picture of a witch at the top for J.K. Rowling.

00:02:56.200 Because she's probably the most famous one.

00:02:58.120 I mean, maybe you get two points for that.

00:02:59.920 I don't know.

00:03:00.560 You are both correct.

00:03:02.020 Point for both.

00:03:02.940 Yeah, I don't think you get points for extra pictures.

00:03:05.160 Do I not?

00:03:06.060 Especially not that picture.

00:03:07.440 All right, number two.

00:03:08.440 What is a demiboy?

00:03:10.100 Is it A, a gender identity for someone who identifies fully as a boy, but is exploring other gender expressions?

00:03:16.520 B, a gender identity describing someone who is partially but not wholly identifying as a boy.

00:03:22.620 C, a historical title given to a young nobleman in medieval societies.

00:03:27.500 Or D, a young Jewish man who watches Star Wars and has a bad taste in music. 0.90

00:03:32.260 Did you really not catch that, Michael?

00:03:37.040 No.

00:03:37.400 Who do you know that is a young Jewish boy who watches Star Wars and has a bad taste in music? 1.00

00:03:44.000 Oh, I couldn't tell if it was like, I couldn't tell if it was a Shapiro jab, but no, it's a Professor Jake.

00:03:51.240 Because Ben's not that young anymore.

00:03:52.780 He's turned 40.

00:03:53.560 He's an adult now.

00:03:54.380 You know, you're right. 0.87

00:03:55.340 Professor Jacob is a demiboy.

00:03:57.460 But even still, I'm going to put, I might put down a different answer.

00:04:00.400 Okay.

00:04:00.440 Is Ben on Star Wars?

00:04:02.020 Ben?

00:04:02.980 Yeah.

00:04:03.500 He actually is on Star Wars.

00:04:04.220 He watches Star Wars all the time, yeah.

00:04:05.060 Yeah.

00:04:05.240 Oh, I never watched Star Wars.

00:04:07.560 And I actually put out a poll on Twitter yesterday if I should watch it or not.

00:04:10.420 And I think I'm going to be forced to watch it now because everyone's voting yes.

00:04:13.740 The first movie is fine.

00:04:15.640 The second movie is kind of fun and maybe better.

00:04:19.020 And then pretty much all the other ones are terrible, like the other 57 movies that they've made.

00:04:23.900 But the first two are kind of fun.

00:04:27.140 Okay.

00:04:27.460 All right.

00:04:27.660 I'll see you in mine.

00:04:29.100 Let's see it.

00:04:29.980 We have A, B, C, or D.

00:04:31.760 I say B.

00:04:33.600 Me too.

00:04:35.100 That's correct.

00:04:35.740 It is B. 0.64

00:04:37.580 Not Professor Jacob.

00:04:39.180 Not Professor Jacob.

00:04:40.940 That's correct.

00:04:41.580 Because obviously, it's like a demigod, you know? 1.00

00:04:44.100 It's not a god who's exploring other states of being.

00:04:47.800 It's someone who's like half this and half that and, you know?

00:04:51.020 Yeah.

00:04:51.520 And Ben Shapiro has a great taste in music.

00:04:53.440 Is that a good amount of money?

00:04:54.780 He's a great producer of music.

00:04:56.440 Yeah.

00:04:57.480 But that's true.

00:04:58.500 Number one rap artist.

00:05:00.160 Oh, yeah.

00:05:00.600 All right.

00:05:02.920 Number three.

00:05:04.080 How many colors were on the original Pride flag in 1978?

00:05:11.200 This actually changed because of manufacturing reasons on the flag.

00:05:15.440 Ten seconds.

00:05:18.160 Are you done, Michael?

00:05:19.080 I'm done.

00:05:19.860 All right.

00:05:20.100 What do you got?

00:05:20.580 I say four.

00:05:21.760 Six.

00:05:22.880 The answer is eight.

00:05:24.880 Wow.

00:05:25.460 So neither one of you guys got a point.

00:05:26.900 Eight?

00:05:27.180 Really?

00:05:27.360 I thought, see, when you said manufacturing reasons, I assumed it was just hard for them

00:05:30.900 to print all the different colors.

00:05:32.580 And so it was a smaller number.

00:05:34.580 Well, yeah.

00:05:35.080 The original Pride flag had more.

00:05:36.360 And so they changed it later because it had too many.

00:05:38.400 Because it had eight.

00:05:39.020 Oh.

00:05:39.600 So what has it got now?

00:05:41.080 I think now it has six.

00:05:42.240 I think it ties right.

00:05:43.020 But the original one had eight. 0.96

00:05:45.020 Hot pink for sex, of course. 0.95

00:05:47.100 Red for life.

00:05:48.460 Orange for healing.

00:05:49.860 Yellow for sunlight.

00:05:51.300 Green for nature.

00:05:52.480 Turquoise for art.

00:05:53.620 Indigo for harmony.

00:05:54.940 And violet for spirit.

00:05:56.520 Wow.

00:05:57.100 Turquoise for art.

00:05:57.940 Did I get half a point because I was half right?

00:06:00.580 Yeah.

00:06:01.160 I don't know about that.

00:06:01.720 1978.

00:06:02.400 I don't know about that.

00:06:03.280 There's so much more to say.

00:07:12.540 Number four, what is systemic oppression?

00:07:16.200 Is it A, a term used to describe big tech companies limiting or removing all the best

00:07:20.420 content posted on certain social media channels?

00:07:23.040 B, the experience of repeated widespread discrimination by individual members of society

00:07:29.120 without any backing of institutional system?

00:07:31.340 C, a policy implemented by governments to segregate or limit the freedom of specific groups based

00:07:37.500 purely on temporary conditions?

00:07:40.000 Or D, the institutionalized prejudice rooted in historical inequities that affects certain

00:07:45.440 groups across all levels of society, including political, social, and economic?

00:07:52.020 Like, man, this is a tricky one.

00:07:54.120 This is a tricky one, man.

00:07:56.420 It's like the official, like, definition according to who?

00:08:00.220 Google.

00:08:01.560 Oh.

00:08:04.780 Huh.

00:08:06.040 They get wordier and wordier, these.

00:08:07.900 I say D.

00:08:10.560 D.

00:08:11.480 D.

00:08:12.200 That is correct.

00:08:13.140 D.

00:08:13.800 Man, we're a tie.

00:08:14.820 Is this 3-3 now?

00:08:15.860 What is it?

00:08:17.300 3-3.

00:08:18.420 3-3.

00:08:19.180 It's going to be a good one.

00:08:20.020 There is a tie break at the end, so don't worry.

00:08:21.420 We've had that happen before.

00:08:22.540 What if we both get that one right, too?

00:08:24.580 That's not going to happen.

00:08:25.040 Yeah.

00:08:26.380 It's one of the Star Wars questions, you know?

00:08:28.000 There's no way you're going to get it.

00:08:29.120 Yeah. 0.88

00:08:29.460 Oh, but I never watch Star Wars, so I'm screwed.

00:08:32.560 All right, number five.

00:08:33.560 What does this flag represent?

00:08:36.160 Can I ask a question?

00:08:38.360 Sure.

00:08:39.140 Does this have to do with gender, or it's a different topic?

00:08:44.400 It involves stuff, which is how all this stuff.

00:08:47.460 Okay, well, that actually changes my answer.

00:08:51.960 Oh, man, I just helped him.

00:08:54.240 Okay.

00:08:55.160 All right.

00:08:55.740 Russian black pie, I think.

00:08:59.920 Okay, I just wrote furries, and I made a little animal.

00:09:03.320 I don't know, something with furries, animals?

00:09:05.860 That is a great guess.

00:09:07.820 Fortunately, neither one of you guys got it right.

00:09:09.540 The answer is it's the polyamory pride flag.

00:09:13.060 The polyamory.

00:09:14.960 Pie.

00:09:15.320 So is the pie, is it because it's, because polyamorous orgies are irrational?

00:09:22.980 Is that, is that why?

00:09:24.080 Like, why, where is the pie coming?

00:09:25.340 I actually thought that might be the reason why.

00:09:27.020 That's, it makes more sense than what I can guess there.

00:09:29.820 Yeah.

00:09:30.000 I don't want to put pie in there.

00:09:31.100 Is it maybe because when you have someone bend himself over into a complete circle,

00:09:36.120 and then you try to insert another person in the orgy as the diameter,

00:09:40.800 that when you try to divide the two, you end up with pie?

00:09:44.300 Is that it?

00:09:45.140 Or did I just put that image in your head for no reason?

00:09:47.740 Michael, we're trying to stay on YouTube.

00:09:49.320 Got it.

00:09:49.560 Why do you keep doing this?

00:09:50.260 Got it.

00:09:50.740 Okay.

00:09:51.660 Now we're going to have to think about this all day.

00:09:53.200 Yeah, and I don't want to, but I might have to also.

00:09:56.260 Yeah.

00:09:56.380 All right, number six.

00:09:58.160 According to Pew Research, what state is the most lib?

00:10:01.440 What has the highest percent of the population is liberal?

00:10:04.120 Huh.

00:10:05.300 Uh.

00:10:06.280 Good question.

00:10:07.840 Not the, not, it's not the most populous in terms of libs.

00:10:11.000 You're saying the highest percentage of the liberals.

00:10:12.840 Yep.

00:10:13.520 Okay.

00:10:14.420 Uh.

00:10:15.320 This is a tough one.

00:10:17.780 Time.

00:10:19.300 Massachusetts?

00:10:20.460 Oh my God.

00:10:21.860 You guys both got it right.

00:10:23.660 Hey.

00:10:24.340 Whoa.

00:10:24.820 That is so, no one else at the entire Daily Wire office got that right.

00:10:29.140 No, you know why?

00:10:30.540 Because, you know, everyone wants to say Oregon or something, but Oregon is conservative.

00:10:35.200 It's just Portland, which is liberal.

00:10:36.920 Exactly.

00:10:37.160 And we're like Washington, Seattle is liberal, but the rest of it's conservative.

00:10:40.180 So, but Massachusetts, everyone's a lip.

00:10:43.340 No, there are like no conservatives except for the three people that voted for Scott Brown

00:10:46.740 in 2010.

00:10:48.460 Exactly.

00:10:49.060 I have the exact same thought.

00:10:50.220 And like, and people say they think California, but it's only LA and San Francisco.

00:10:55.480 And, or like New York, but it's only New York City.

00:10:58.360 Right.

00:10:58.620 Everything else is not, and I post so much about Massachusetts.

00:11:03.060 Like it might be, it's definitely, it might be the number one.

00:11:06.020 And I'm like, I know Massachusetts.

00:11:08.540 Yeah.

00:11:09.000 What's crazy about it is it's only 36 or 38%, which is, that's shocking.

00:11:14.680 That is the highest one.

00:11:15.380 But there are several states that are 50% conservative and only like four or five states have more

00:11:20.900 liberals than conservative, which is crazy that, you know, a lot more elections aren't

00:11:24.740 won by conservatives.

00:11:25.920 That's the case.

00:11:26.600 Cause that's always the way it is though.

00:11:29.340 But the conservatives are kind of, because they're conservative, because they're just normal

00:11:33.100 and content and happy.

00:11:34.420 They're less politically engaged.

00:11:36.280 It's always the minorities, the concerted political minorities, like the Bolsheviks, Bolshevik 0.96

00:11:41.160 meaning like the majority, but it was really a small number of people, but they, they're

00:11:44.780 always the ones who win the revolutions.

00:11:46.760 So you get, you get up to 40% or whatever in Massachusetts, you're done.

00:11:50.740 You're toast.

00:11:51.500 Yeah.

00:11:51.800 It was like, there's not even anything, but like Massachusetts, it's a lost cause.

00:11:55.100 Like there's nothing we could do there.

00:11:57.140 Yeah.

00:11:57.480 All right.

00:11:57.800 On that Blackpill moment, what is queer baiting? 0.92

00:12:02.240 Is it A, what is queer baiting? 0.99

00:12:05.860 Queer baiting? 0.93

00:12:07.060 Queer bait. 1.00

00:12:07.860 It's what happens, you know, when, when the conservatives come to power.

00:12:10.660 Wait, no, no, I'm joking, YouTube, I'm joking.

00:12:14.000 I'm joking, it's a joke.

00:12:15.600 Like B-A-I-T? 0.99

00:12:17.520 Yeah, I kind of like fishing, queer baiting. 1.00

00:12:19.360 Okay.

00:12:19.840 Not B-E-A-T. 0.99

00:12:21.020 I wasn't sure I heard, okay.

00:12:22.940 I don't know, I want to know what queer baiting would be.

00:12:25.940 I don't know why I put that image in my eyes.

00:12:27.680 I'm sure there's a website for it.

00:12:29.200 I'm sure it'll be featured soon, I'll lose a TikTok.

00:12:31.880 Is it A, a marketing strategy that includes exclusive LGBTQ content to appeal directly to that

00:12:38.520 demographic?

00:12:38.980 Is it B, the practice in media and entertainment of hinting at but not actually depicting same-sex

00:12:46.480 romance or LGBTQ plus themes to attract an LGBTQ plus audience?

00:12:52.640 Is it C, a genre of literature that focuses primarily on LGBTQ plus characters and stories?

00:12:59.260 Or D, doing a soft shoe dance routine in your show's cold open?

00:13:03.040 You know, you won't give me the point for it, but there's a clear answer here.

00:13:08.240 Obviously.

00:13:08.660 And you won't give me the point, but it's okay.

00:13:10.420 When you asked the question, I was thinking, I was like, what could that word possibly mean?

00:13:13.140 And I, that was what I was thinking of.

00:13:15.220 That was the answer that I came up with.

00:13:16.780 But I know you won't give me the point for it.

00:13:18.840 Okay.

00:13:19.040 Who made up this term?

00:13:21.480 The left?

00:13:22.540 I think it's the left.

00:13:23.940 I've heard the word before, though I've never heard it.

00:13:27.120 Like, I've never heard the definition of it exactly, but I think it's the libs who, like,

00:13:31.140 the libs use the word angrily.

00:13:33.440 They use it.

00:13:34.000 Such and such is queerbaiting. 1.00

00:13:35.480 Yeah, yeah.

00:13:36.120 Okay.

00:13:36.740 This is, this is, this is tough.

00:13:38.640 I might, I might, this might be where we split our top.

00:13:42.040 This is where, okay, I'll take it.

00:13:44.380 All right, Michael, what do you got?

00:13:45.680 I say B.

00:13:48.080 Oh, I was between A and B.

00:13:51.040 What did you, what'd you draw there?

00:13:52.780 Oh, it's a little dancing with a martini on a desk.

00:13:55.620 Just, it was kind of hedging my bets, you know?

00:13:58.180 I feel you.

00:13:58.920 It actually, you didn't need to because the answer is B.

00:14:01.180 Okay.

00:14:01.560 Michael takes the lead.

00:14:02.860 They're hinting at it, but not willing to commit, you know, so it's queerbaiting. 1.00

00:14:05.860 This was actually a term that came up during our interview with Nala Ray,

00:14:09.680 where she talked about on a website that we can't mention on, on YouTube.

00:14:12.700 That's right.

00:14:13.060 How straight men will pretend a certain way to attract more viewers who are homosexual. 0.98

00:14:18.500 That's right.

00:14:19.080 We call, in the conservative movement, we call it the old Bill Buckley approach,

00:14:22.760 you know, which is why a little bit, a little ethos, a little thumos we take from that.

00:14:27.700 You might've forgotten that Father's Day is around the corner.

00:14:30.740 And as such, you might have no idea what to get him.

00:14:33.940 Don't worry, I've got you covered.

00:14:36.200 Treat him to a box of Mayflower Cigars.

00:14:48.940 Some exclusions apply.

00:14:50.300 Now, with no further ado, back to the show.

00:14:53.240 All right.

00:14:53.800 Number eight.

00:14:54.380 What is a chaser?

00:14:56.500 Chaser.

00:14:57.220 Chaser.

00:14:57.580 One of the, there's a transvestite at Media Matters who I think called me that one time.

00:15:02.960 But I don't know exactly.

00:15:05.040 I'm like questioning everything I've been doing the past few years because I don't think I've ever been called that.

00:15:08.740 Yeah, I don't know.

00:15:09.700 There's this one.

00:15:10.860 You know the one, I won't say his name on air, but he, you know, there's that one transvestite at Media Matters and he gets paid to watch our content. 0.62

00:15:18.520 But he called me that, I think.

00:15:20.220 So I don't, I assume it means a devilishly handsome Cecilia.

00:15:23.520 Well, we'll see if it's one of the answers here.

00:15:26.340 Is it number A, a person who is primarily attracted to individuals because they belong to a specific marginalized group?

00:15:33.740 Is it B, a term used to describe someone who actively seeks relationships with people significantly younger than themselves?

00:15:40.920 C, a nickname for someone who participates in competitive dating or relationship games?

00:15:47.300 Or D, an attention seeker who spends their time doxing while also trying to keep their own anonymity by covering their face with medical masks in public in 2024?

00:15:56.420 For example, Taylor Luenz.

00:16:00.320 There's a lot of terms I would use to describe Taylor.

00:16:03.060 Most of them will probably get a fencer on YouTube.

00:16:07.040 But I don't think Chaser's one of them.

00:16:09.140 When I was a kid, this will date me, but when I was a youth, a chaser was that little shot of pickle juice you'd have after the whiskey.

00:16:17.340 You know what I'm talking about?

00:16:18.560 You ever have that?

00:16:19.400 I don't do whiskey.

00:16:21.500 I don't like whiskey.

00:16:24.140 But on social media, I mean, it's like Chaser, you know, that's a term that's used.

00:16:32.120 It's like a Twitter slang, chaser.

00:16:35.060 I mean, when I was a kid, we used chaser, I guess, when we played tag.

00:16:40.220 That's true.

00:16:41.020 This is not quite as wholesome as that.

00:16:42.640 Yeah.

00:16:43.120 Ten seconds.

00:16:43.900 People ask me, I say chaser, I hardly know her.

00:16:46.140 Okay, I think we've exhausted all of the puns and synonyms or homonyms, I suppose.

00:16:52.460 Can I say homonym on air or is that homophobic?

00:16:56.800 Unless YouTube updates its guidelines, we're fine.

00:16:59.340 Okay.

00:16:59.900 I said the first one.

00:17:00.980 I kind of gave it away, right?

00:17:03.140 That's correct.

00:17:04.040 I did.

00:17:04.560 Okay.

00:17:06.180 I shouldn't have given it away.

00:17:07.320 Maybe I would have pulled ahead.

00:17:09.660 You're ahead.

00:17:10.460 You're winning me by one point.

00:17:11.720 I am?

00:17:12.300 You are still currently ahead by one point.

00:17:13.820 Oh, okay.

00:17:14.220 All right, great.

00:17:15.580 Yes, there's a lot of pressure right now here.

00:17:17.860 Okay.

00:17:18.600 All right.

00:17:19.100 What is a femme? 1.00

00:17:20.080 Is it A, someone whose gender expression is feminine, B, a style of fashion characterized

00:17:25.420 by exaggerated femininity often used in theatrical performances or drag shows, C, a type of behavior 0.95

00:17:32.400 in social interactions that emphasizes gentleness and empathy traditionally associated with female 0.90

00:17:38.660 gender roles, or D, a dance style that involves fluid, graceful movements often performed in 1.00

00:17:44.760 heels and traditionally associated with female dancers?

00:17:48.120 This is the first really hard one because they're so similar.

00:17:51.880 In a way, I want to do C just because we haven't had any C answers yet.

00:17:56.480 This is a really tricky one because they're, you know.

00:17:58.840 Yeah.

00:17:59.520 I got my answer.

00:18:01.160 Okay.

00:18:02.540 All right.

00:18:03.340 What do you have?

00:18:04.840 A.

00:18:05.720 Wow, it is A.

00:18:07.420 There we go.

00:18:08.020 Someone whose gender expression is feminine.

00:18:09.840 Because it, you know, it was the most general.

00:18:12.340 And then I always think, you know, the thing that they do is they say, you know, like, 0.87

00:18:15.900 I'm a demi-trans, you know, queer homo boy girl. 0.99

00:18:20.320 And you're like, what does that mean? 0.68

00:18:21.920 And they have some gobbledygook and you try to pin it down.

00:18:24.900 You say, wait, so you're a boy in a dress? 0.89

00:18:26.440 Like, well, you don't have to wear a dress.

00:18:27.820 Like, okay, you're a boy who thinks you want to wear a dress.

00:18:31.220 You don't have to want to wear a dress.

00:18:32.240 And it's all, anytime you try to pin it down, they say, well, you don't have to do that.

00:18:35.200 And so, I figured, go with the most general one, which is, like, you kind of feel vaguely feminine.

00:18:41.240 So, there it is.

00:18:43.200 Yeah, I've just, I've seen dozens of TikToks where they're, like, showing off how they look.

00:18:48.680 And they're like, oh, I'm a femme girl or I'm a femme boy.

00:18:52.020 So, I actually kind of knew that one, that it was referring to the dress and looks in general.

00:18:57.620 All right.

00:18:58.060 Well, getting off the stuff for a minute.

00:18:59.980 Yeah.

00:19:00.140 Number 10, according to the Guttmire Institute, which two states are tied for being the most pro-abortion?

00:19:07.260 You get one point for each.

00:19:08.840 This is Guttmacher.

00:19:09.840 This is Planned Parenthood's think tank.

00:19:12.100 Guttmacher.

00:19:13.660 The most pro-abortion.

00:19:16.200 Terms of sheer numbers or proportionality?

00:19:19.720 No, like the most laws in favor of, like the most crazy protections.

00:19:23.840 Oh, okay.

00:19:24.340 I'll list you the protections after we get through.

00:19:25.960 Oh.

00:19:27.140 Got it.

00:19:27.480 Okay.

00:19:27.720 Yeah, not like most abortions happen there. 0.70

00:19:29.420 Just the craziest laws to help with that process. 0.92

00:19:32.200 The two, the top two?

00:19:33.420 Yeah.

00:19:33.680 So, you can guess two.

00:19:35.440 Okay.

00:19:37.600 What if we get like one right and one wrong?

00:19:39.520 Do we get half points on this one?

00:19:40.340 No, you'll get one point for each.

00:19:41.660 One for each.

00:19:42.220 Okay.

00:19:42.440 All right.

00:19:43.100 Two states.

00:19:43.600 Okay.

00:19:44.180 Oh.

00:19:44.520 I got my answer.

00:19:45.480 Hold on.

00:19:47.100 Hold on.

00:19:49.280 No, no, no.

00:19:49.820 Okay.

00:19:49.940 I'm going back to my first.

00:19:50.720 Okay.

00:19:51.020 All right.

00:19:51.340 All right.

00:19:51.960 Let's see what we got.

00:19:53.100 Okay.

00:19:54.140 California and Illinois.

00:19:55.520 Oregon and New York.

00:19:56.640 I have a little hair gel there for Gavin Newsom.

00:19:59.080 Right, California.

00:20:01.360 According to the Guttmire Institute, the two correct answers were Oregon and Vermont.

00:20:06.060 Vermont.

00:20:06.600 Okay.

00:20:07.440 All right.

00:20:07.820 I knew it was Oregon. 0.99

00:20:08.960 Oregon, you can kill a baby up until the moment of birth, like without question, basically.

00:20:13.000 I know Alaska has a lot of abortions, but I don't think the laws, I don't think it's 0.77

00:20:18.380 a matter of their laws just being super liberal.

00:20:20.300 I think it's also just cultural practice. 0.54

00:20:22.060 New York, though, you can kill a baby up until the moment of birth, too.

00:20:24.700 You know, Andy Cuomo lit up the Empire State Building, or the World Trade Center in pink.

00:20:30.060 So I'm sort of surprised New York doesn't rank up there, but I'll take my one point.

00:20:34.120 That's fine.

00:20:34.740 I mean, it ranks really high up there, but it doesn't have all these laws to keep it in

00:20:39.220 practice.

00:20:39.800 One, it's not restricted based on gestation duration, obviously.

00:20:43.540 The state constitution protects it.

00:20:45.400 State Medicaid funds cover it.

00:20:47.320 Wow.

00:20:47.480 Private health insurance plans are required to cover abortion.

00:20:50.400 Qualified health care professionals, not solely physicians, can also provide it.

00:20:53.760 The state provides protections from harassment and physical harm for anyone entering an abortion

00:20:57.800 clinic.

00:20:58.600 And the state has a shield law to protect abortion providers from investigations by other states,

00:21:03.560 and may cover also patients in support of their organizations.

00:21:06.400 That's like North Korea levels of killing babies. 0.94

00:21:09.300 Yeah, it's wild.

00:21:10.020 I got a brush on my abortion laws.

00:21:11.860 Is California at least like third?

00:21:13.800 I mean, did you see that video from Newsom like the other week?

00:21:16.600 Where he's like, people in cars are getting stopped and women are getting pulled out of

00:21:21.880 their cars and being thrown in jail for getting an abortion?

00:21:27.420 Yeah.

00:21:27.980 I watched that video and I thought, you know, the ladies, first of all, no one's proposing 1.00

00:21:31.400 this, but second of all, they are going to kill like one of their children.

00:21:35.360 That's not, you know, like, I don't know.

00:21:36.760 I didn't totally sympathize with the protagonist, but anyway.

00:21:40.560 It's like some weird Democrat fantasy.

00:21:43.020 Like, they actually, they wish this was happening.

00:21:45.920 It is encouraging when you see the map.

00:21:47.500 Obviously, those are the two worst ones, but all the pro-life states are the, there's

00:21:52.140 much more of those colors taking over the map, let's just say, than all the pro-abortion

00:21:55.400 ones.

00:21:56.680 All right, number 11.

00:21:58.400 Define a mask spelled M-A-S-C.

00:22:02.560 Is it A, a style of makeup characterized by subtle, natural-looking enhancements typically

00:22:07.600 aimed at a male audience?

00:22:09.140 Is it B, a term used within the LGBTQ plus community to describe an identity or presentation

00:22:16.200 that is associated with masculinity?

00:22:19.000 Is it C, a term for the use of makeup used to better align oneself with the gender they

00:22:24.160 prefer, often a large amount, to look more like a physical mask?

00:22:28.460 Or D, someone whose gender expression is masculine, sometimes used as a derogatory term

00:22:33.540 for lesbians, but it can also be claimed as an affirmative identity label, similar to 0.98

00:22:38.900 the term butch.

00:22:40.060 This is tough.

00:22:41.560 All right, whatever.

00:22:42.540 I got it.

00:22:43.980 I said B?

00:22:45.300 Yeah, me too.

00:22:46.100 You both said B.

00:22:46.680 The answer is D.

00:22:47.680 Is it D?

00:22:48.420 Yeah.

00:22:49.200 I was between B and D.

00:22:50.920 Some people are proud masks.

00:22:53.100 Proud masks.

00:22:53.940 But isn't it, wouldn't it therefore also be B?

00:22:57.820 Yeah.

00:22:59.300 It's a gender expression that is associated with masculinity. 1.00

00:23:02.720 Like, even if you say, like, well, yeah, but it's also kind of like the term bull or

00:23:06.520 something, and it's, lesbians sort of use it too or whatever. 1.00

00:23:09.100 You know, it doesn't, like, that's true, but that's just a specific instantiation of the

00:23:14.460 general rule of B.

00:23:15.660 I agree with Michael.

00:23:17.660 You guys just blew my mind.

00:23:19.180 I think you're absolutely correct.

00:23:20.160 That definitely would still make sense.

00:23:21.520 Y'all both get a point.

00:23:22.480 Let's go.

00:23:22.960 All right.

00:23:23.980 Yeah.

00:23:24.220 There we go.

00:23:24.760 It'll be nine by two, but...

00:23:26.600 Yeah.

00:23:27.140 All right.

00:23:27.700 Number 12.

00:23:28.920 What does this flag represent?

00:23:31.840 Oh, I know this, I think. 0.97

00:23:34.020 Is it like gay anarchist? 0.97

00:23:36.800 It's like the anarchist flag, but we're very decadent. 0.96

00:23:41.340 There is an anarchist flag, but...

00:23:44.100 Is this multiple choice or no?

00:23:45.880 No, this is not multiple choice.

00:23:47.460 Okay.

00:23:48.220 I think I know what it is.

00:23:49.980 Okay, hold on.

00:23:50.500 I think I got it.

00:23:51.760 How many flags are there?

00:23:53.760 Too many.

00:23:54.760 To be honest with you.

00:23:55.740 We can do it just flags and have a whole episode.

00:23:58.340 Yeah, yeah.

00:23:58.620 Oh, yeah.

00:23:58.940 No, I got it.

00:23:59.820 This one's a gimme.

00:24:01.460 All right.

00:24:01.780 What do you have? 0.99

00:24:02.520 That's the flag of the gay pandas. 0.99

00:24:05.680 This is asexual pride? 0.99

00:24:08.740 This is actually the ally pride flag.

00:24:11.360 So if you are just an ally, you can have as much pride as everybody else going through

00:24:15.340 the crowd.

00:24:15.980 Wow.

00:24:16.640 Yeah.

00:24:17.300 It actually came up.

00:24:18.140 It was more popular in the early 2000s.

00:24:20.420 Yeah.

00:24:20.740 I wonder what the asexual flag is. 0.66

00:24:22.640 I wonder if it's similar.

00:24:23.960 Yeah. 0.78

00:24:24.180 And do we know what the gay panda flag is then?

00:24:26.680 There was a bear flag that I almost used, but I'm not seeing it. 0.98

00:24:29.700 Meaning like the big gay guys? 0.96

00:24:32.040 Yeah. 0.90

00:24:32.460 Yeah.

00:24:32.820 Yikes.

00:24:33.360 You know, you can always create that, Michael. 0.99

00:24:36.200 The gay panda one? 0.99

00:24:37.900 Yeah. 0.99

00:24:38.360 I think you should.

00:24:39.440 That's a good idea.

00:24:40.100 Maybe I'll draw that in the corner while we're answering these questions.

00:24:42.700 We can add that to the merch shop.

00:24:44.160 It'd be pretty great.

00:24:44.820 Yeah.

00:24:45.360 All right.

00:24:45.940 Number 13.

00:24:47.640 What country has the highest share of people identifying as LGBTQ plus?

00:24:53.180 This is multiple choice.

00:24:54.620 What country?

00:24:55.160 What country?

00:24:55.900 Yeah.

00:24:56.280 This is multiple choice.

00:24:57.660 Is it A, Brazil?

00:24:59.380 B, Spain?

00:25:00.800 C, Switzerland?

00:25:02.080 D, Great Britain?

00:25:03.080 E, the Netherlands?

00:25:05.080 Greatest increase in the number of, or you're saying that just the highest proportion?

00:25:10.040 The highest share of people identifying like a percent of their population.

00:25:12.800 Yeah.

00:25:12.980 Okay.

00:25:14.180 Are these all, like where does the U.S. fall in?

00:25:18.520 Not this bad.

00:25:20.040 Not this good.

00:25:20.740 Depending on how you look at it.

00:25:21.820 Mm-hmm.

00:25:22.780 All right.

00:25:23.920 What do you have?

00:25:25.420 D, Great Britain.

00:25:26.640 I, well, all the Brits are kind of gay, but they still get married and have kids and stuff. 0.96

00:25:32.140 I said A, Brazil, and then also that's my gay panda. 0.96

00:25:35.220 It's a panda holding a Cosmo with a limp wrist. 0.90

00:25:38.180 Do you have colorful markers though?

00:25:39.840 Because we need to know the colors of the flag.

00:25:42.100 That's true.

00:25:42.880 You're right.

00:25:43.140 I only have the black one.

00:25:44.400 I only, that's not gonna. 0.94

00:25:45.560 We can just keep it black.

00:25:46.840 Yeah.

00:25:47.360 Yeah.

00:25:47.840 The answer is A, Brazil.

00:25:50.160 Let's go.

00:25:50.880 15%.

00:25:51.480 Oh, man.

00:25:52.680 I was debating between Brazil and Great Britain.

00:25:55.440 Yeah.

00:25:55.780 No, I'm not, because they're all, you know, they're like a little Latin, you know, they're 1.00

00:25:59.160 a little fluid down there.

00:26:00.480 I, okay.

00:26:01.380 All right, baby.

00:26:02.300 Second was actually Spain.

00:26:04.140 In, in Kaya's defense though, in Britain, I assume every single man who attended any prep

00:26:10.580 school, you know, had a little of the history boys treatment.

00:26:14.920 So technically, Kaya's probably right too.

00:26:18.220 The history boys treatment? 0.56

00:26:19.780 You know, you never saw that play.

00:26:21.180 What is that tale, Michael?

00:26:21.660 You never, yeah.

00:26:22.480 That's a deep cut.

00:26:23.180 Probably in terms of like, in terms of the, of the culture in the country.

00:26:28.640 Great.

00:26:29.040 I wonder if Great Britain would be first from all of those options.

00:26:32.680 Yeah.

00:26:33.740 That's what I was thinking, but okay.

00:26:35.540 Oh, there's a lot of, I don't know how to recover from this.

00:26:37.560 I'm down three points.

00:26:38.560 This is rough.

00:26:38.960 I don't know how many people there are, but I'm pretty much giving up hope over here.

00:26:43.120 Oh, yeah.

00:26:43.500 We got some questions left.

00:26:44.480 And also, Great Britain's got a lot more Sharia law coming in.

00:26:46.500 So it's probably pushing some of that out.

00:26:47.560 I should have thought of that.

00:26:52.160 It's true.

00:26:53.940 Number 14.

00:26:55.060 What is an egg?

00:26:56.840 A. An oval or round object laid by a female bird, reptile, or fish. 0.65

00:27:01.800 B. A phase in gender studies referring to the initial period of exploring gender fluidity

00:27:07.060 before adopting a specific identity.

00:27:09.620 C. A term used in psychology to describe the natural developmental stage of forming one's

00:27:15.060 gender identity in adolescence.

00:27:16.660 D. Someone who is, but doesn't know it yet.

00:27:20.040 Someone who is an embryo of the person they will eventually hatch into.

00:27:24.320 They all kind of sounded like the same thing to me.

00:27:26.880 I know the term egg.

00:27:28.980 You know, I've heard it before, but.

00:27:31.260 I'd never, I'd never heard it.

00:27:33.120 If only that's the term they were teaching kids in school, we'd be fine, right?

00:27:35.760 Just like, yeah, I guess it's laid by birds and stuff.

00:27:38.200 I say B.

00:27:39.220 What do you have?

00:27:40.460 The answer is D.

00:27:41.980 D.

00:27:42.660 What was D though?

00:27:44.140 Wait, it's like this.

00:27:45.380 Yeah, but this is already predetermined.

00:27:48.300 What they're saying is like, you don't, you know, decide to be trans, you just are trans.

00:27:51.160 Oh, right.

00:27:51.860 So yeah, you just don't.

00:27:53.240 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:27:54.220 Yeah.

00:27:54.800 It's actually very big on Reddit.

00:27:56.260 And there's, there's like pedos and groomers and creepy predators who are like, let's, let's crack that kid's, you know, that kid isn't an egg.

00:28:05.360 Let's crack her egg or whatever. 1.00

00:28:07.000 Like to try to be trans. 1.00

00:28:08.940 Yeah.

00:28:09.080 Right.

00:28:09.460 No, that's what, that is like, obviously part of this whole, like when people call the ideology a groomer ideology, this is the kind of thing they're talking about, right?

00:28:18.740 It's like, hey, kids, you probably have the same weird hangup that I do.

00:28:22.440 I just got to bring it out.

00:28:24.520 And that's, and now those people are in your library.

00:28:27.540 Right.

00:28:28.280 And they're, they're in your, your kindergarten kid's classroom and they get off on confusing kids.

00:28:32.840 Yeah.

00:28:33.200 Oh, gross. 0.65

00:28:34.880 Egg.

00:28:35.860 Yeah.

00:28:36.100 It's a shame.

00:28:37.060 None of that can go on YouTube, but well, keeping on gross stuff, number 15, what is the name of the staffer who was caught doing something, something only meant for procreation in the Senate hearing room?

00:28:50.300 Oh, I thought you were going to say the one who went topless and I already started writing it, but then it wasn't that now in the Senate hearing room.

00:28:58.880 Allegedly.

00:29:00.200 Is it?

00:29:01.080 Oh, I don't know.

00:29:01.760 He denied it at first, didn't he?

00:29:03.540 I don't, but even though it was on video.

00:29:06.100 Uh, it's like what they do to me.

00:29:08.780 Like, yeah, they're like, no, we're not teaching your, your first grader about pronouns.

00:29:14.480 And I'm like, here's a video of a teacher teaching their first graders about pronouns.

00:29:18.280 They're like, no, she's lying.

00:29:21.040 Um, okay.

00:29:21.680 I got it.

00:29:22.960 Um, all right.

00:29:24.160 What do you have?

00:29:25.360 Aiden?

00:29:26.240 Aiden is correct.

00:29:27.220 Do you, hold on.

00:29:27.820 You got to do the full name or you do just one name counts?

00:29:30.280 No, just one name counts.

00:29:31.160 What do you have, Michael?

00:29:31.980 I have, uh, Eric Swalwell, but I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm,

00:29:36.080 I'm mostly joking because I know that all of Eric Swalwell's sex stuff involves female 0.99

00:29:41.080 Chinese spies and not.

00:29:43.140 Well, that we know of.

00:29:44.460 That we know of.

00:29:45.120 You're right.

00:29:45.500 Hey, you're right.

00:29:46.420 Michael, we don't know who the person with the camera was.

00:29:49.040 Yeah.

00:29:49.420 For all we know.

00:29:50.260 Yeah.

00:29:50.500 Can I get half credit on the possibility?

00:29:53.100 Speculation.

00:29:53.560 Yeah.

00:29:54.280 Just to put that out in the ether.

00:29:56.240 I'll give you a point just for that.

00:29:57.400 Now, actually, what is the final score now?

00:29:59.380 Because I had a nice home stretch there.

00:30:01.460 Don't call it a comeback.

00:30:02.840 I'm losing by one, I think.

00:30:04.540 You are.

00:30:04.960 It's 10, nine, Michael.

00:30:07.800 Is it over?

00:30:08.600 Did we, did I win?

00:30:09.300 We have a bonus question, but only, you know, if you want to go double or nothing.

00:30:14.300 If I want to risk it.

00:30:15.500 Yeah.

00:30:16.420 So we got a bonus.

00:30:17.420 Do we have a tiebreaker after the bonus?

00:30:18.760 Like, what if, what if we don't?

00:30:20.420 Okay.

00:30:20.640 So then it could be a tie.

00:30:21.720 There's no way you can tie on this.

00:30:23.720 Okay.

00:30:24.180 It's who gets closer to the percent.

00:30:25.520 So the odds of you actually getting the same percent would be like, no way.

00:30:28.280 Okay.

00:30:29.120 But that's only if you want to, Michael.

00:30:30.280 You are the champion currently as it stands.

00:30:31.760 Now, do you want to wager and go all in on double or nothing?

00:30:34.160 Final question.

00:30:37.860 Yes.

00:30:39.440 All right.

00:30:40.840 I don't really, I don't stand to gain anything. 1.00

00:30:43.000 This is a really stupid bet of me. 0.97

00:30:44.480 Like I are, I could only lose, but, but yeah, whatever. 1.00

00:30:48.920 I'm not a great gambler.

00:30:50.160 You feel that high going?

00:30:51.100 You don't want to lose that?

00:30:51.380 Let's go.

00:30:51.820 I feel like I just popped in like four zins.

00:30:53.620 Let's go, baby.

00:30:54.620 Yeah.

00:30:55.120 I have so much pressure here right now.

00:30:56.860 I'm sweating.

00:30:57.640 All right.

00:30:57.880 Here we go.

00:30:58.880 What percent of Gen Z adults identify as something other than straight or heterosexual?

00:31:04.980 So how does this work?

00:31:06.280 The closer?

00:31:07.400 Is it like closest without going over?

00:31:09.640 No, just closest.

00:31:10.460 I don't like the going over thing.

00:31:12.320 Like meritocracy. 0.64

00:31:13.940 So basically what percent of Gen Z is gay?

00:31:17.380 Of Gen Z. 0.72

00:31:19.380 I'm getting nervous just sitting here now.

00:31:20.860 Does that include eggs?

00:31:21.860 There's so much on the line.

00:31:23.020 Does that, like if you're an egg, do you count in?

00:31:26.660 Yeah, you could identify as that.

00:31:27.980 So it's just anything other than.

00:31:28.680 I'm saying what if they don't know?

00:31:30.720 Like if they're an egg, they don't know, right?

00:31:33.240 But so do they count?

00:31:34.700 Well, they wouldn't be able to answer it.

00:31:35.820 So actually, no, they wouldn't, Michael.

00:31:36.960 They wouldn't count, but they're still the thing.

00:31:38.720 So really, whatever the number is, multiply it by two because all the eggs.

00:31:42.860 All the eggs out there.

00:31:44.180 So gross.

00:31:44.780 Well, they probably, if they know they're an egg, they're probably already identifying as something else. 0.71

00:31:51.580 But what if they don't, what I'm saying is.

00:31:52.920 They've got a label on themselves already.

00:31:54.760 Well, I thought the definition of an egg was a guy who's trans, but he doesn't know it. 1.00

00:31:59.760 Kind of like when Norm MacDonald said he was a deeply closeted homosexual, but he's not gay. 0.96

00:32:03.260 Like if you don't, if you're not aware, you can never be aware that you're an egg because the moment you're aware of it, you're not an egg anymore. 0.98

00:32:10.420 You're just trans. 1.00

00:32:10.720 So the way that the term is used, it's like people who are starting already to like think that maybe they need a label.

00:32:19.960 So then I want credit for my previous answer, Mr. Davies, because what Kaya just said is that my answer was kind of right.

00:32:27.740 How do you like that?

00:32:28.400 Kind of right does not cut it.

00:32:29.660 All right.

00:32:30.360 Whatever.

00:32:30.780 All right.

00:32:30.980 I think I have the answer.

00:32:31.620 I think there's a lot of legwork there.

00:32:33.260 Yeah.

00:32:34.480 One second.

00:32:35.260 I have two written down and I have to decide between these two.

00:32:40.040 All right.

00:32:41.580 Okay.

00:32:42.100 What do you have?

00:32:43.020 I say 20.1%.

00:32:45.160 I have 26%.

00:32:47.480 It's 28%.

00:32:49.440 Oh, I was going to read 28 also.

00:32:52.720 No, it's not.

00:32:53.700 Brutal.

00:32:54.180 Hold on.

00:32:54.820 According to what study?

00:32:56.000 Hold on.

00:32:56.900 I'm calling in.

00:32:58.660 I don't buy this for a second.

00:33:00.220 Wow.

00:33:00.440 You mean like 26?

00:33:01.400 I was like, it's a little low.

00:33:03.300 That's why I wrote 32 in the corner.

00:33:05.640 Yeah.

00:33:06.340 And with all the eggs.

00:33:07.620 This is not.

00:33:08.520 What study are.

00:33:09.600 I'm pulling out the.

00:33:11.440 Wait.

00:33:11.880 So it's a tie.

00:33:13.080 No, you won.

00:33:14.320 You don't want nothing.

00:33:16.380 Uh-uh.

00:33:18.320 Yes.

00:33:19.540 Uh-uh.

00:33:19.900 Look at this.

00:33:20.500 Hold on.

00:33:20.840 I'm going to spend my day.

00:33:22.260 Hold on.

00:33:22.800 I am.

00:33:23.740 NBC News.

00:33:24.820 Michael, I'm just getting in.

00:33:25.220 July.

00:33:25.840 What'd you say?

00:33:26.300 NBC said that it was from the study that NBC was quoting that nearly 30%.

00:33:29.980 No.

00:33:31.180 One in five.

00:33:32.660 Hold on.

00:33:32.920 I knew it was nearly 30.

00:33:33.840 I saw that study.

00:33:34.780 That's why I wrote 32.

00:33:36.840 No.

00:33:37.500 I have the study.

00:33:38.280 I have the NBC News article right here.

00:33:40.540 One in five adult members of Gen Z self-identify as LGBT.

00:33:45.020 That would be 20%.

00:33:45.760 No, but it's also just, it's, it's not just LGBT.

00:33:48.540 Oh, something other.

00:33:49.260 Oh, it's because there was a caveat of something other than.

00:33:52.020 Like, there's also a vote added to it.

00:33:53.560 Hold on.

00:33:54.220 I don't buy, I'm not buying this.

00:33:56.380 I.

00:33:56.900 What if they're like non-binary, but they're not gay, you know? 0.72

00:33:59.500 No.

00:34:00.000 I don't.

00:34:00.480 Hold on.

00:34:00.740 I want to see your work here.

00:34:01.920 I don't believe this for a second.

00:34:04.100 Can you pull.

00:34:04.760 Okay.

00:34:04.980 You know, the article actually doesn't give the numbers.

00:34:06.680 Thank you.

00:34:06.920 I won.

00:34:07.440 Let's just end this before Michael continues researching.

00:34:10.000 No, hold on.

00:34:10.460 Hold on.

00:34:10.480 Can you send Michael a text with the article that we pulled?

00:34:12.980 Yeah.

00:34:13.160 I want to see the, I want to see the numbers here.

00:34:15.420 I don't know what's more impressive.

00:34:16.560 Michael's pride and arrogance going to that last question.

00:34:19.100 Bro, zoom in on this.

00:34:21.720 Here we go.

00:34:23.140 February 19th, 2022.

00:34:25.100 Axios reporting.

00:34:25.940 The number of LGBTQ identifying adults is soaring.

00:34:29.120 Gen Z, 20.8%. 1.00

00:34:31.660 Look at that.

00:34:33.100 How do you like that?

00:34:33.660 That's almost the exact number I gave.

00:34:35.380 What's the date on that?

00:34:37.040 February 19th, 2022.

00:34:38.900 It's saying people that identify as LGBTQ or not heterosexual.

00:34:42.560 Like how many people are identifying as heterosexual?

00:34:44.220 So what they're saying is 72% of that group are saying we're heterosexual.

00:34:47.880 And the other ones.

00:34:48.640 And that's two years ago.

00:34:50.580 The NBC one was much more recent.

00:34:53.620 It's getting gayer out there.

00:34:54.620 Hold on.

00:34:55.080 Wait, it's getting, it's, it is now gayer than one in five?

00:34:57.760 It's getting gayer.

00:34:58.620 Yeah.

00:34:59.240 Apparently.

00:35:00.740 That can't, that can't be real.

00:35:03.340 Wow.

00:35:04.020 Well, you know what?

00:35:04.840 I'm not even going to dispute it.

00:35:06.200 I'll, I'll take the tie in my great magnanimity.

00:35:09.300 After spending five minutes trying to dispute it.

00:35:12.320 No, I still hold to Ben Davies's statistical error, and I'm sure they'll sort it out in

00:35:18.140 the comments.

00:35:19.140 But if it is the case that our society is getting even gayer than one in five, then we've all

00:35:25.600 lost anyway.

00:35:27.160 At that point, it doesn't matter.

00:35:29.140 But you know who didn't lose was Chaya.

00:35:31.100 Chaya, and she gets a 30-second read from you, Michael.

00:35:34.580 What do you want to plug?

00:35:35.500 Wait, I thought it's a tie.

00:35:36.820 No, you, she won.

00:35:37.740 It was, it was.

00:35:38.240 Maybe she won. 0.74

00:35:38.960 It was 10 to 9.

00:35:40.180 It was all in on that.

00:35:40.500 It was double or, it was double or nothing.

00:35:42.380 Yeah, it was like you're going all in on one question.

00:35:44.140 I'm going double on all my points?

00:35:45.820 So she got 20 to 10 or something?

00:35:48.320 I thought that's what we agreed upon.

00:35:49.520 This is classic Ben Davies statistics.

00:35:51.680 This is where he got the 30% number.

00:35:53.020 Okay, but I'll do a commercial anyway.

00:35:56.560 Libs of TikTok is not only one of the most important social media channels out there.

00:36:03.960 It is also probably in the top five of all news sources in the world right now.

00:36:09.180 And most important of all, constitutes at least a fifth, though I don't know, probably

00:36:14.980 Ben Davies would put it at 30%, of the stories on my show every single day.

00:36:19.840 And everyone should follow Libs of TikTok. 0.98

00:36:23.340 Wow, thank you.

00:36:24.560 Am I going to get a panda pride flag as my prize?

00:36:29.240 I erased it, unfortunately, but wow.

00:36:34.020 We'll just get Jeremy on it.

00:36:35.380 You know, he'll just start a new company and have the pride flags go. 0.87

00:36:37.740 I'm sure we'll get you one very, very soon.

00:36:39.920 Wait, so this is only the second time that Michael lost?

00:36:43.100 Yeah, it's still disputed, but yeah, that's what.

00:36:45.660 And he lost to me out of how many episodes?

00:36:48.360 Like a billion.

00:36:49.000 I would say that, you know, depending on how this thing is finally scored, I will admit

00:36:57.280 that I lost in about the same way that Trump lost the 2020 election.

00:37:02.000 Yeah.

00:37:02.160 I was just going to say, you're almost a competition denier.

00:37:08.000 What do you think double or nothing means, Michael?

00:37:10.400 I didn't know I could wager the points I had already won.

00:37:14.260 When did that happen?

00:37:15.260 I don't know what to hear.

00:37:16.920 It's double the points.

00:37:17.880 I want this fair and square.

00:37:19.560 And so hold on.

00:37:20.280 What is the non-straight, non-straight, non-LGBT identity? 0.67

00:37:29.320 There's a lot of weird identities out there, and apparently people are identifying as it.

00:37:32.520 As pandas.

00:37:33.380 I don't know.

00:37:33.680 Honestly, that was found by the lovely Markella, and so she just added all of them up.

00:37:39.500 It's obviously fake, but it's okay.

00:37:41.660 We accept the ruling for now.

00:37:43.180 Maybe we challenge it in court.

00:37:44.580 This will be good for the comments, though, you know, we'll get it moving.

00:37:48.420 Michael won.

00:37:49.920 Team Michael for life.

00:37:50.380 I'm sure I was news.

00:37:51.480 I'm actually shocked right now.

00:37:53.300 It was a great performance.

00:37:54.400 The comeback was really the whole thrust of it.

00:37:58.920 I don't mean to use the term thrust in an LGBT episode.

00:38:03.040 There's so many images in my head after this.

00:38:05.200 Oh, my God.

00:38:05.600 I need a detox.

00:38:06.400 Yeah, you're describing that flag, Michael.

00:38:08.040 I was like, good Lord.

00:38:08.740 This is like an 18-plus episode on YouTube.

00:38:11.280 It's going to get the explicit warning.
