00:00:00.000 Joe Walsh, who we had on the podcast, apparently he came out and he said he has left the Republican Party.
00:00:05.520 Can you show the other clip, Rob, of him talking about that he's left the Republican Party first?
00:00:09.440 So he posted this video.
00:00:10.980 Nice here.
00:00:11.760 Good looking guy.
00:00:12.620 Go ahead.
00:00:13.080 Play the clip, Rob.
00:00:14.060 I am a Democrat.
00:00:15.600 Yesterday I formally joined the Democratic Party, and I couldn't be more excited and more proud.
00:00:21.260 I love this country.
00:00:23.200 I fucking love this country.
00:00:24.980 And my former political party is a real and direct threat right now to everything we hold dear in this country.
00:00:33.560 Hey, Democrats, we got to fight.
00:00:35.980 If my becoming a Democrat does nothing else but then to help the Democratic Party fight, help us fight, help.
00:00:45.200 Okay, now go to the other clip when he was on the podcast.
00:00:47.780 Democratic Party.
00:00:48.660 Listen, I don't know why he didn't do this.
00:00:50.400 Go ahead, Rob.
00:00:50.700 I hope the Democrats have a crush.
00:00:51.920 I asked you a specific question.
00:00:53.560 Which is what?
00:00:54.100 Am I a Democrat?
00:00:56.160 Based on what you're saying that you don't regret your vote?
00:00:58.820 Of course you're a Democrat.
00:00:59.760 That makes me a Democrat, even though I'm not a Democrat and I'm not a registered Democrat.
00:01:03.800 Because you supported policies of a Democrat.
00:01:07.080 Pat.
00:01:07.740 If I vote for a Democrat or Republican.
00:01:10.660 Pat, Republicans and Independents voted for Biden.
00:01:12.720 If I claim I'm non-emotional.
00:01:15.840 Come on, man.
00:01:16.480 It's a nice podcast, but you got to fucking deal in facts.
00:01:19.020 If I claim I'm non-emotional.
00:01:21.280 If I claim I'm non-emotional, which you're saying you're not.
00:01:23.740 Okay.
00:01:23.940 Pat.
00:01:24.080 If I claim I'm not, what part of your vote today.
00:01:27.500 Did Independents vote for Biden in 2020?
00:01:29.500 What part of your vote today.
00:01:30.760 See, he just doesn't listen.
00:01:31.920 Because you haven't answered my question yet.
00:01:33.240 How much longer is this, guys?
00:01:34.280 You haven't answered my question.
00:01:35.000 I'm having a ball.
00:01:35.700 You haven't answered my question yet.
00:01:36.900 Pat.
00:01:36.920 No, you know, I'm sitting five feet from you.
00:01:39.220 I get that.
00:01:39.380 Three feet.
00:01:39.800 Three feet.
00:01:40.680 And I'm telling you to your face, I am not a registered Democrat.
00:01:45.840 What part of the policies you voted for are you happy with today?
00:01:50.100 I'm not happy with...
00:01:52.180 Okay.
00:01:52.780 Let me finish a thought, brother.
00:01:53.860 I want to hear it.
00:01:54.960 Policy.
00:01:55.400 As I've said before, I'm not happy with the vast majority of policies Biden has done.
00:02:01.340 I'm not a Democrat.
00:02:02.780 I don't regret my vote.
00:02:04.000 Yeah.
00:02:04.580 Plenty of Independents and Republicans voted for Biden, too, Pat.
00:02:08.840 They're not Democrats.
00:02:10.460 Maybe they regret their vote, but they're not Democrats.
00:02:13.040 But that's the difference, though.
00:02:14.160 No, you called me a Democrat, man.
00:02:15.620 No, that's the difference, though.
00:02:16.740 You supported...
00:02:17.440 You know what?
00:02:17.960 You're un-American. 0.97
00:02:19.100 You supported Democratic politics.
00:02:20.600 You're un-American. 0.97
00:02:21.120 You can't say that.
00:02:21.980 Why would you say that?
00:02:22.640 It's your opinion.
00:02:23.360 Because he's calling...
00:02:24.180 No, no, exactly.
00:02:24.920 It's your opinion.
00:02:25.480 How stupid, Adam, is it for me to say that?
00:02:27.920 But if you can validate...
00:02:28.640 It's not true.
00:02:29.160 If you can validate the point...
00:02:30.700 But Pat sits there and says, I'm a Democrat.
00:02:32.400 But if you validate the point, I'll say,
00:02:34.000 I love you, man.
00:02:35.120 And this is an emotional...
00:02:35.940 If you validate the point, say it.
00:02:37.400 But there's no point.
00:02:38.320 Then tell me your policies.
00:02:39.580 There's no point.
00:02:40.260 What policies you voted for.
00:02:41.940 What policies you voted for.
00:02:43.420 Pat.
00:02:43.760 Are you happy for the vote?
00:02:44.880 Pat.
00:02:45.220 Yes.
00:02:45.780 I'm not going to tell you a damn thing.
00:02:48.600 If you continue to call me a Democrat,
00:02:50.540 then tell me what policies you don't support.
00:02:54.780 You can pause it right there, Rod.
00:02:56.200 This is just entertaining.
00:02:57.560 He threatens to leave.
00:02:59.240 The guy that the Democrat...
00:03:00.000 Yeah, he threatens to leave.
00:03:00.840 I think right after this.
00:03:01.780 I don't know if you want to keep going.
00:03:02.600 He threatens to leave.
00:03:03.960 And Adam starts like, no, no, no.
00:03:05.060 You don't have to leave.
00:03:07.520 Did we lose audio, Rod?
00:03:08.480 Hey, Tyler, how much longer?
00:03:10.200 Tell me the policies.
00:03:11.460 That's how long it is.
00:03:11.940 That's when he threatens to leave.
00:03:12.540 Joe, you can get up and leave.
00:03:13.420 I'm totally fine with it.
00:03:14.100 We'll open the door for you.
00:03:14.840 I may.
00:03:16.640 And it's...
00:03:17.020 You do that.
00:03:17.580 Joe, you're going to be fine.
00:03:18.320 You're going to stay there.
00:03:19.040 You're good.
00:03:19.320 No, no, no.
00:03:19.960 I'm staying right there, buddy.
00:03:21.420 This is not emotional.
00:03:23.200 Yeah.
00:03:23.660 It really isn't.
00:03:25.320 So then give me a logical answer.
00:03:26.880 You can pause it right here.
00:03:28.100 I love that.
00:03:29.120 Look, the only reason I play this clip is because I'm so proud of him.
00:03:32.240 I just wanted to publicly congratulate Joe that you finally did it.
00:03:37.560 Came out of the Democratic closet.
00:03:38.060 Yeah.
00:03:38.440 And you did it.
00:03:39.100 And you ought to be proud of yourself.
00:03:40.320 And this was a very...
00:03:41.140 By the way, very simple message.
00:03:43.420 Proud of you, Joe.
00:03:44.260 Wish you all the best.
00:03:45.400 Congratulations.
00:03:45.800 And, you know, may your decision to finally be public about it.
00:03:51.800 I hope there was a little bit of inspiration from this three-foot, you know, exchange that
00:03:56.840 we had.
00:03:57.560 That we were sitting right next to each other.
00:03:59.080 It was an incredible moment that we had together that we will forever, for the rest of our lives
00:04:04.320 share.
00:04:05.020 Joe, congrats to you.
00:04:05.980 Welcome home, Joe.
00:04:06.600 God bless.
00:04:07.040 All the best.
00:04:08.040 All right.
00:04:08.500 Last year, we ran one of the coolest contests ever.
00:04:11.500 And I thought it was going to be a basic dinner and meet and greet and all this other stuff.
00:04:16.200 It turned into a massive spectacle.
00:04:18.260 It was a Manette contest for two months for lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight, and
00:04:22.160 super heavyweight.
00:04:22.880 And even users got involved.
00:04:24.520 And we invited the top three.
00:04:26.020 You pay your flight, hotel, all that stuff.
00:04:27.400 But once you came here, we went to dinner together at Casa D'Angelo.
00:04:30.540 Top-notch dinner.
00:04:31.720 Then we went to the cigar lounge.
00:04:33.680 And it was such a great time.
00:04:35.340 We stayed together till midnight.
00:04:36.520 We had six and a half hours of conversations.
00:04:38.260 I'm going to show you the highlight from last year.
00:04:41.260 Then I want to announce this contest for all of you guys to compete in from June to July.
00:04:46.200 And the dinner will be sometime in August.
00:04:47.880 Rob, play this clip.
00:04:48.560 Go for it.
00:04:50.860 We just had our first Manette dinner.
00:04:52.960 Let me tell you, it was so awesome because we had the dinner.
00:04:55.320 It was absolutely an amazing experience.
00:05:01.080 The conversations, the networking, great.
00:05:05.920 People from all over the world.
00:05:07.300 So I said, maybe I'll stick around for an hour, maybe an hour and a half.
00:05:11.180 But then afterward, we came right here at the cigar lounge.
00:05:16.900 I stayed till midnight.
00:05:18.740 We had six and a half hours of conversation.
00:05:21.860 That was fantastic.
00:05:23.180 Yeah.
00:05:23.600 So if you weren't there, you missed it.
00:05:25.300 We wish you were there.
00:05:26.240 But I'll give you one counsel.
00:05:27.360 We're about to announce the next contest.
00:05:33.840 Do not miss the next Manette contest.
00:05:37.980 And I hope to see you there.
00:05:40.180 By the way, it was so great.
00:05:42.680 Deals were done.
00:05:43.660 Relationships were built.
