00:00:00.000 So, yesterday, everyone's waiting for this election.
00:00:03.720 Just 120 days ago, on every chart we looked at,
00:00:09.100 Pierre was supposed to be the prime minister.
00:00:12.580 Polymarket, massive lead, okay?
00:00:15.520 Vegas odds, massive lead.
00:00:17.960 After a disastrous Justin Trudeau, he goes to Mar-a-Lago,
00:00:23.280 walks out, 51st state, embarrassing for Justin Trudeau.
00:00:27.980 Everyone's saying this is going to be over with.
00:00:30.420 And then, last night, I'm at Casa D'Angelo.
00:00:33.080 This Canadian family from Montreal walk up to me.
00:00:35.680 Okay, Pat, we're in Canada.
00:00:36.860 We watch your stuff.
00:00:37.680 We know how you feel about Pierre.
00:00:38.700 You know it's the election tonight.
00:00:39.820 I said, I know it is.
00:00:40.800 They said, you know, he's probably not going to win.
00:00:42.260 I said, no, I know he's not going to win.
00:00:43.360 He doesn't work that hard.
00:00:44.940 And they said, be nice to us Canadians.
00:00:47.360 We watch you guys.
00:00:48.340 Be nice to us.
00:00:49.600 Be fair to us.
00:00:50.320 I said, look, fair I'll be, but you're too easy on your candidate.
00:00:54.000 So, this is Mark Carney, a World Economic Forum candidate,
00:00:58.340 wins, and we brought Viva to give us an update on this
00:01:01.840 because I've got a lot more opinions here.
00:01:03.920 Rob, if you want to play this clip, go for it.
00:01:05.640 We see every day what the politics of slogans and anger and chaos
00:01:11.660 are doing south of the border.
00:01:13.340 They are dividing and they are weakening the Americans.
00:01:17.480 And that is why, yeah, that is why.
00:01:22.260 They are not united anymore.
00:01:24.660 United in name only.
00:01:25.700 You can stop it right there.
00:01:29.780 I can only listen to it.
00:01:31.180 Imagine that he accuses them of politics of slogans with elbows up
00:01:35.200 and they are not united.
00:01:36.440 I mean, he issues two slogans.
00:01:38.500 His campaign was elbows up, which is ironic because, you know,
00:01:41.700 when you're getting mugged in Canada, that's exactly where your elbows are now.
00:01:44.400 But politics of slogans and then he's basing his campaign on a slogan,
00:01:48.520 elbows up, which makes no sense.
00:01:49.620 Is that like the old Cholo song, elbows up, side to side and elbows up?
00:01:53.820 No, no, so apparently it's hockey.
00:01:56.900 You're trying to say, yeah, say.
00:01:58.160 No, it's hockey based and it's supposed to be like, you know,
00:02:00.140 when you get ready to fight.
00:02:01.100 Yeah, you push elbows up.
00:02:02.120 No, but elbows up is a dirty play, like when you want to elbow someone in the head
00:02:04.800 and not have the ref see.
00:02:05.840 So it's even the campaign slogan was a dirty play in hockey.
00:02:09.040 Rob, can you do me a favor?
00:02:10.020 Pull up Trump's tweet yesterday towards Canada and then Pierre's response,
00:02:15.800 if you can pull that up.
00:02:16.960 You know, so for me, I'm watching this whole thing taking place,
00:02:20.120 going back and forth.
00:02:21.140 So this guy Pierre needs to absolutely win by a mile.
00:02:25.540 If you have the tweet towards Canadians, you should have it somewhere there, Rob.
00:02:30.900 When was it?
00:02:31.680 When you go a little bit lower, see if you find it.
00:02:33.360 If not, you don't see it.
00:02:37.040 Man, he's pretty active nowadays.
00:02:39.080 Okay, well, go to Pierre's tweet.
00:02:41.020 Okay, go to Pierre's tweet.
00:02:42.580 Go to Pierre's tweet.
00:02:43.900 Okay.
00:02:44.140 If you go to Pierre's tweet, is this it?
00:02:47.580 President Trump, stay out of our election.
00:02:51.980 The only people who will decide the future of Canada are Canadians at the ballot box. 0.99
00:02:56.580 They didn't show up.
00:02:58.140 Canada will always be proud, sovereign, and independent,
00:03:00.660 and we will never be the 51st state.
00:03:03.900 Today, Canadians can vote for change so we can strengthen our country.
00:03:08.560 Stand on our own two feet and stand up to America from a position of strength.
00:03:12.900 Go to my tweet, Rob, and just to have some fun with this one here,
00:03:15.580 this is what I said to Canadians last night, six hours or 12 hours before they were about to go out there and vote.
00:03:22.860 Can you go to that one right there?
00:03:24.040 I mean, I even tagged them purely out of respect.
00:03:26.420 Canada, I certainly hope your candidate, Pierre Poliev, did everything in his power to win for you.
00:03:30.760 I hope you held him accountable.
00:03:32.360 I hope you drove him to earn his victory instead of being entitled to one.
00:03:35.820 I hope he and his team reached out to Tucker, Nelk, Rogan, Theo Vaughn, Megyn Kelly, Sean Ryan, Bill Maher,
00:03:41.080 Lex Friedman, and others to get his message heard.
00:03:42.880 I certainly hope your fear of the liberal media in Canada didn't bully you from campaigning the old-fashioned way.
00:03:49.580 I hope this doesn't become the most embarrassing loss a conservative candidate has suffered following a disastrous Trudeau administration.
00:03:57.960 If he loses to Carney after being ahead by a mile on Polymarket just 90 days ago,
00:04:02.420 this may go down as the most pathetic loss of all time.
00:04:05.200 Your beautiful country and amazing people needed their hero to work his ass off.
00:04:08.840 I'm not sure he did.
00:04:09.620 I certainly hope I'm wrong, and he wins, but future looks bright for those who campaign like their country counted on them.
00:04:17.940 Go a little lower.
00:04:18.980 Here's John Shahidi.
00:04:20.080 Go a little bit lower on that tweet in the comment section.
00:04:22.600 John Shahidi, who runs Nelk, he runs Folsom, he runs Happy Dad.
00:04:26.620 He says, I tried to support by connecting Nelk, Theo, and you, they ignored.
00:04:32.340 You mean to tell me you said no to Theo?
00:04:34.240 Theo, do you know how much we would have sent the lighter side of you, the fun side of you with Theo?
00:04:39.800 Do you know what would have happened if you'd gone to Nelk?
00:04:42.220 They have connections in Canada, and you said no to it?
00:04:44.880 Now, Viva, everybody I talk to, this is the shit I hear.
00:04:48.720 I hear people say, you don't understand Canadian politics.
00:04:52.140 Probably so.
00:04:53.180 You don't understand how things are.
00:04:54.660 You don't understand how the liberal media, they're so dirty over here,
00:04:57.160 and what they're going to do is, if he goes on all those things,
00:04:59.340 all they're going to do is this.
00:05:00.540 This is all Trump's fault.
00:05:01.840 If Trump wouldn't have brought up the 51st state, he would have won by landslide.
00:05:05.140 This whole thing happened because of Trump.
00:05:07.440 It is all Trump's fault.
00:05:08.940 It is all, if I hear one more Canadian blame this loss on Trump,
00:05:13.140 I am so sick and tired of this victimhood mentality of blaming everything on Trump.
00:05:18.360 There is this one, what do you call it, I saw, Rob.
00:05:21.860 There's this one meme I saw.
00:05:24.040 I'm sending it to you right now, if you see it on your phone, if you can pull it up.
00:05:26.380 But this meme explains so many of the voters that want to blame every single thing on Trump.
00:05:34.220 I want to show this to you, and I'm going to tee it off to you, okay?
00:05:36.500 Let me get this out of my system.
00:05:38.220 This is therapy for me, okay?
00:05:40.200 If you can show this meme, this is what everything is with Canada.
00:05:45.060 Boom, boom, Trump did this.
00:05:47.560 It's all Trump's fault, so go ahead, tell us.
00:05:49.380 Tell us, represent the Canadians and give their perspective, please.
00:05:53.480 I hear the exact same thing.
00:05:54.580 Viva, you've been Americanized by American politics.
00:05:57.480 A Trump campaign in Canada wouldn't work in Canada.
00:06:00.080 Canadians are too fill in the blank.
00:06:02.280 I might agree that Canadians are way too propagandized, and I don't even think they understand it, 1.00
00:06:07.200 and I think we've seen the results of that.
00:06:09.000 But the fact that he would turn down or not go on certain podcasts,
00:06:13.320 because people are saying, well, what good would it do to go on an American podcast?
00:06:16.060 The media in Canada is just going to use it against him, say he's Trump-esque.
00:06:19.060 And it's like, they're doing it anyhow.
00:06:20.560 No matter what he does, no matter how much he tries to trash Trump, they do it anyhow.
00:06:24.060 They called him mini-Trump.
00:06:25.060 They drew parallels between his campaign and Trump's campaign.
00:06:27.580 And I said, you want to get the eyes of the world on the issues of Canada,
00:06:31.640 much like what happened in Romania, where Caelan George-esque gets disqualified.
00:06:36.280 They annul the election.
00:06:37.620 And you say, well, don't get American politics involved in it,
00:06:39.900 because it's none of their business.
00:06:41.840 That's how you put things on international blast,
00:06:43.420 and that's how you get into the mainstream and bypass the media cartel that exists in Canada.
00:06:49.140 It was very, very frustrating, because I've been hard on Pierre for four years.
00:06:53.940 Going back to when he referred to Christine Anderson as hateful,
00:06:56.980 said she should go back to Germany.
00:06:59.000 Going back to when he was wearing the Ukrainian scarf, saying Slava Ukraine.
00:07:02.600 I was like, what kind of leader of a country is chanting glory to another country?
00:07:06.980 And you criticize him over the years, try to make him a better candidate.
00:07:09.840 Then he gets involved in this campaign and runs it like he thought he was going to be the anointed prime minister.
00:07:15.320 Did you see his interview with Jordan Peterson?
00:07:17.880 It was reminiscent of Hillary Clinton's happy birthday to this future president.
00:07:22.640 They're talking about it as though he's already won it.
00:07:24.980 They're talking about it as though he's the prime minister.
00:07:26.460 Who's day, Jordan Peterson?
00:07:26.980 Jordan Peterson and him.
00:07:28.220 Jordan Peterson was talking as if he's already won it?
00:07:30.560 Yeah, they're sitting like, when you become...
00:07:32.160 No, no, he was talking to Jordan.
00:07:33.820 No, no, no.
00:07:34.820 What I'm asking is, did Jordan Peterson talk to him as if you're going to win?
00:07:39.720 Effectively.
00:07:40.120 I mean, that was the tone.
00:07:41.500 But that was months before the election was even called.
00:07:43.680 And in that interview, Pierre Poilier says something which I think proved prophetic.
00:07:47.220 He's like, Peterson said, how do you avoid going to the middle to try to woo the vote of the middle ground people?
00:07:52.560 And then Pierre says, well, I won't do that.
00:07:55.080 He says, well, elaborate.
00:07:56.120 He's like, I'm smarter than that.
00:07:57.580 I know you don't take for granted the votes of your base and move center to try to accommodate everybody.
00:08:02.520 That's how you piss everybody off.
00:08:03.540 And I'm like, that's exactly what he did during the campaign.
00:08:06.120 Wow.
00:08:06.480 He abandoned.
00:08:08.000 First of all, never did anything to try to woo what they refer to as the vote splitters, the PPC, the People's Party of Canada.
00:08:14.060 Never did anything to try to accommodate their desires, to listen to their concerns, to address the vaccine injured, to address the Ottawa protests, to address Tamara Leach and Chris Barber being convicted of mischief.
00:08:24.420 And now they're facing two years in prison.
00:08:25.820 And the Pat King debacle never did anything to address any of that because he was afraid the liberal controlled mainstream media.
00:08:32.480 Why are they so scared of the liberal controlled media in Canada?
00:08:35.660 Why are they so like what is the difference between the liberal controlled media in Canada and the U.S.?
00:08:40.400 Tell me.
00:08:40.780 Well, let's say CBC, Radio Canada, or they're fully funded.
00:08:44.320 They're subsidized by the government to the tune of like one point some odd billion dollars.
00:08:46.720 They are deeply indebted, you know, for the future of their livelihood.
00:08:50.560 What country doesn't have that?
00:08:52.360 Tell me what country doesn't have the media controlled by the left and the government.
00:08:57.200 What country?
00:08:57.860 In America, you have a bit more of a populist conservative or center voice.
00:09:02.760 Who?
00:09:02.920 You, Rogan.
00:09:04.020 No, no, no, no.
00:09:06.040 Mainstream media, who?
00:09:07.600 Who in mainstream media in the U.S.?
00:09:08.940 Fox News.
00:09:09.660 Tell me what channel in U.S. is conservative.
00:09:12.160 I'd say Fox News is conservative lights.
00:09:14.360 Okay.
00:09:14.940 Who else?
00:09:15.720 That's pretty important.
00:09:16.160 Well, we've got OAN and Newsmax.
00:09:18.300 Those two are not that big.
00:09:19.820 No, I agree.
00:09:20.560 But at least you have one big voice, which has a big audience.
00:09:23.580 And at the very least, you have voices that people can get their alternative.
00:09:27.020 In Canada, you've got none of that.
00:09:29.040 And you've got CBC, Radio Canada, as the state crown corporations.
00:09:32.540 Then you've got CTV, Global News, National Post, Toronto Star, Toronto Sun.
00:09:36.680 They're all effectively controlled by the government or indebted to.
00:09:40.280 So then if you know that's the case and you're Canadian, you know they have that kind of control.
00:09:45.780 You don't want to be a disruptor?
00:09:47.340 You didn't see what happened to America?
00:09:48.600 You didn't see the fact that the media tried to destroy Trump's life and conservatives in America?
00:09:53.240 And you didn't see that coming?
00:09:54.520 Like, you did not use America as a case study of what not to do and how to beat them? 0.52
00:09:59.560 You didn't see this as a case.
00:10:00.700 Like, if you're going to build a business having to do with, you know, fitness equipment,
00:10:07.200 or if you're going to be doing clothing line, go study the case study of Nike, Under Armour,
00:10:12.960 see what they did, and go study who screwed up and who lost market share.
00:10:15.920 Go find out what happened with Converse on how they screwed up.
00:10:18.980 Canadians are like, well, no, no, no, you guys don't understand.
00:10:21.340 Well, no, no, no, you don't understand.
00:10:22.700 Be a damn change agent.
00:10:25.380 This is the thing that...
00:10:26.640 How come they're afraid of being a change agent?
00:10:28.560 This is the flack that I was getting from so-called Canadian conservatives.
00:10:32.100 And I don't consider myself conservative.
00:10:33.780 Maybe libertarian-ish.
00:10:35.220 But they were saying, Vivi, you don't understand.
00:10:36.840 He's got to play it safe.
00:10:37.960 Right.
00:10:38.160 Otherwise...
00:10:38.560 I was like, no, but you don't win anything by playing it safe.
00:10:41.560 How did it work out for you?
00:10:42.760 Well, it...
00:10:43.340 How did it work out for you?
00:10:44.220 He lost his own riding.
00:10:45.640 He lost his own riding in Carlton.
00:10:46.440 Rob, what is this?
00:10:47.100 Rob, is this...
00:10:48.420 This is what, Rob?
00:10:49.760 This is the polls leading up.
00:10:51.820 You can see where Pierre Polyev was all the way down to 21%.
00:10:56.300 And then he jumped back up in December, but not enough to compete with Mark Carney.
00:11:01.440 This is not Polymarket, Rob.
00:11:02.700 What is this?
00:11:03.500 This is...
00:11:05.760 No, go to Polymarket.
00:11:08.100 Go to Polymarket, Canada elections.
00:11:10.140 Yeah, you'll see the crisscrossing.
00:11:11.700 Because he was 99.5% like six months ago.
00:11:14.680 No, there's another one, Rob.
00:11:15.740 If you go to Polymarket between the two, chart...
00:11:18.020 Yeah, there it is.
00:11:18.740 That's the one.
00:11:19.380 That's the one.
00:11:20.020 Exactly.
00:11:20.520 So look at that.
00:11:21.600 Okay.
00:11:21.980 Look at the far left.
00:11:23.060 What's the date on the far left?
00:11:24.340 That's generally...
00:11:24.980 Click on that, Rob.
00:11:26.080 Yeah, if you go to it, that should be the date.
00:11:29.620 It's a screen grab.
00:11:31.140 No, that's okay.
00:11:32.160 But that is effectively what the chart looked like.
00:11:34.240 It went a little bit further down.
00:11:35.140 Because he was at 90, 85% until Carney came into the race.
00:11:38.460 When Trudeau was the current Prime Minister.
00:11:39.740 Yes.
00:11:40.160 And then Carney came in, was anointed after he defeated the two.
00:11:43.180 Oh, I see.
00:11:43.460 Blue is conservative there.
00:11:45.040 Red is liberal there.
00:11:46.460 That's important for the audience to know.
00:11:47.820 Basically, he plummeted and he tried to make a comeback at the end.
00:11:49.700 Well, no, the comeback at the end, that was when the results were coming in.
00:11:52.920 And it looked like the Conservatives were picking up a little more seats in the East.
00:11:55.720 So they thought they were going to have a better chance of becoming Prime Minister.
00:11:57.760 Then it bounced right back.
00:11:59.380 And Pat, I'll have to cut you off.
00:12:00.160 And aren't we, like, PBD Podcast, talking about conservative-type leaning podcast.
00:12:04.760 They can't watch us on Instagram, correct?
00:12:07.060 No.
00:12:07.480 Canada, if you're in Canada, go on Instagram.
00:12:11.200 Go try to consume our content on Valuetainment on Instagram.
00:12:14.080 You cannot.
00:12:14.540 What are you talking about?
00:12:15.680 Yeah.
00:12:16.060 Okay.
00:12:16.480 Why don't you do this?
00:12:17.660 Go on Instagram if you live in Canada and try to look at our content, Valuetainment, on Instagram.
00:12:23.840 Get out of here.
00:12:24.420 Valuetainment is not allowed to be seen in Canada by the Canadian government.
00:12:29.600 Government.
00:12:30.160 They stop it.
00:12:31.280 Yes.
00:12:31.720 I don't know how much time to tell you.
00:12:32.880 I believe you, but this is the first time hearing this.
00:12:34.600 This has been the case for over a year.
00:12:36.740 You're telling me that Canadians cannot look at Valuetainment on Instagram?
00:12:40.000 Canadians cannot look at Valuetainment content because of the Canadian government.
00:12:43.140 That's the first man that I ever got from Canada was a Canadian going, hey, did you guys know this, that we can't?
00:12:49.420 And I was like, I don't believe it.
00:12:50.220 And I told my cousin.
00:12:50.920 My cousin's like, oh, yeah, we can't.
00:12:52.100 We only see it on YouTube.
00:12:53.440 Oh, Canada.
00:12:54.160 You know, conservative citizens in Canada have a right to be really upset today because words, talk, numbers, scream.
00:13:00.040 The actual vote for the top two parties, because there's multiple parties in Canada and the Green Party does much better in Canada than the Green Party in the U.S., as is the Libertarian.
00:13:08.760 And, Viva, you can correct me.
00:13:11.020 You know what the vote split was here, Pat?
00:13:13.560 43 percent on actual vote count of the Liberal Party, 41.7 percent for the Conservative Party.
00:13:21.160 They lost this thing by a whisker after running the most horrible campaign and ignoring everything.
00:13:26.620 Now, we focus on 270, right?
00:13:30.140 We focus on 270 for our president and for our, you know, we think about our House of Representatives and number C you need.
00:13:37.580 Well, they need 172 up there.
00:13:40.160 The Liberals only have 165 and the Conservatives 147.
00:13:43.860 This thing is razor thin.
00:13:46.060 So, basically, and just like the U.S. became more conservative, there was more conservative shift in this election, and all you had to do was not run a crap campaign.
00:13:58.360 And you gave it up.
00:14:00.380 You were ahead at halftime, and you didn't even play the second half.
00:14:04.900 That's what happened here.
00:14:06.160 And, by the way, the Conservatives up there, and you can look this up and, you know, tell me about this.
00:14:13.160 Conservatives use VPNs to get U.S. social media and to get feeds of stuff that they're not normally allowed to get.
00:14:21.000 And they get it.
00:14:21.800 And so, if he had come to any of the podcasts, to us, to any other ones listed, they, Conservatives up there, would have heard that.
00:14:28.600 Cowardly.
00:14:29.180 It's the only word I can say.
00:14:30.300 Exactly.
00:14:30.760 In life, if you want to be a change agent, you cannot do what cowards do.
00:14:36.080 Cowards are afraid of going and worried about what liberal media in Canada is going to do to you.
00:14:40.460 That's not what Bobby came when nobody wanted to have Bobby on.
00:14:43.440 Not CNN.
00:14:44.480 Nobody wanted to have Bobby on.
00:14:45.720 You know what he did?
00:14:46.740 He went to Rogan.
00:14:47.660 He came here.
00:14:48.660 You know how many times we've had him on?
00:14:49.760 Probably four times we've had him on.
00:14:51.060 He went to everybody.
00:14:52.840 Then all of a sudden, boom.
00:14:54.400 You know what he runs today?
00:14:55.800 He runs a company that is 30 times the size of what Apple does per year.
00:15:02.020 He runs a $1.5 trillion a year business is what he runs.
00:15:06.180 Okay?
00:15:06.580 How did he get that job?
00:15:07.740 What if he doesn't go out there and talk on podcasts?
00:15:09.840 You know the first time Bobby went on Joe Rogan's podcast?
00:15:12.940 Do you know what Joe Rogan says to Bobby in the first 30 seconds?
00:15:15.920 Have you guys seen what Joe says to Bobby in the first 30 seconds?
00:15:18.220 I've heard only negative.
00:15:19.060 What word did he use?
00:15:19.740 What?
00:15:19.840 You don't remember what he said?
00:15:21.620 The first time Rogan has Bobby on his podcast, if you just find it, okay, Joe says, I thought
00:15:27.420 you were a kook. 0.53
00:15:29.700 And then what happened?
00:15:31.160 And then he broke down everything.
00:15:32.400 And then next thing you know, he writes this book about it.
00:15:34.940 That's a change agent.
00:15:37.460 Tulsi Gabbard was a change agent when Hillary went after and said, this is a Russia asset.
00:15:42.780 Trump is a change agent.
00:15:46.580 Pierre is a boring, same old, same old agent.
00:15:50.640 Entitled.
00:15:51.080 And you're not going to be able to win like that.
00:15:53.720 At the highest level, you were humiliated.
00:15:56.700 After having a horrible resume that Justin Trudeau had, you lose to that?
00:16:01.500 Well, the terrible thing is, the really terrible thing is, Pierre's got a wonderful life story
00:16:05.720 that he should be sharing far and wide.
00:16:07.420 He's been in politics since 24 years old, 25 years old.
00:16:09.900 His mother was a 16-year-old girl who decided not to abort him, to put him up for adoption,
00:16:15.600 made the same mistake with his brother, half-brother, that she then put up for adoption to the
00:16:18.760 same family.
00:16:19.800 He's got a nonverbal autistic child.
00:16:21.920 I mean, I don't say, like, milk these things like the way Kamala Harris milked her so-called
00:16:25.160 middle-class upbringing, but tell the story to the people.
00:16:28.180 Get out there.
00:16:28.700 The issue is that, I think, cowardice and policy issues is if he gets out there and says, yeah,
00:16:33.420 my mother was a 16-year-old girl who didn't abort me, and then people are going to say,
00:16:36.820 well, policy-wise, how are you then a conservative that supports abortion?
00:16:39.720 That's where I think he realizes there is a real risk and exposure to go on the podcast
00:16:43.400 because people will ask him these questions.
00:16:45.120 But, oh my God.
00:16:46.840 And then the issue is, you take for granted, it's true, the conservative numbers are up.
00:16:51.220 So-called conservatives in Canada.
00:16:52.760 But they ran a campaign that they allowed themselves to be dictated by their enemy.
00:16:56.860 Their actions were dictated by their enemy.
00:16:58.400 Do you really think Canada is going to have, okay, imagine if I were to tell you, Canada,
00:17:05.040 how much of a shit show was Canada the last four years during COVID?
00:17:08.280 Horrible.
00:17:08.580 How horrible was it?
00:17:09.580 It chased me out of the country.
00:17:11.320 Dude, half the people my son plays soccer with are Canadians.
00:17:14.680 Half the people.
00:17:16.100 You met these guys.
00:17:17.120 I met all of them.
00:17:18.020 They're Canadians.
00:17:19.740 Nicest people.
00:17:20.620 Good business people who made money.
00:17:22.940 They love their country.
00:17:24.580 They're devastated by this.
00:17:25.860 They wanted Pierre to win.
00:17:27.240 They wanted this guy to win.
00:17:28.640 Everything I hear with the story, people come up to you and they say,
00:17:30.700 Pat, you're too tough on him.
00:17:31.940 He's a very nice guy.
00:17:33.200 I don't care how nice of a guy he is.
00:17:36.020 No one hands you over prime minister position just because you're nice and you're smart
00:17:40.700 and you got a good story.
00:17:41.980 You got to go work your ass off with this.
00:17:44.300 You know, like for us, you don't think we want Pierre to win?
00:17:47.260 Of course we do.
00:17:47.980 You think we want Carney to win?
00:17:48.960 Nope.
00:17:49.240 What do you think we want?
00:17:50.660 Yep.
00:17:51.220 You think we're sitting here like celebrating?
00:17:53.060 Where do you think this is coming from?
00:17:54.860 This is coming from, you know, me having gone there God knows how many times.
00:17:58.640 Every time.
00:17:59.200 Justin is just, Justin is that.
00:18:00.480 Justin is this.
00:18:01.120 Did you know what Justin did?
00:18:02.300 Let me tell you what Justin did.
00:18:03.360 All the videos we played the last four years.
00:18:05.660 What are we playing all this stuff for?
00:18:07.100 We got banned from Canada because we kept supporting Pierre and what he's supposed to be doing.
00:18:12.140 We.
00:18:12.820 Why would we care?
00:18:13.800 Because we wanted to see some of the good people in Canada have some of those freedoms.
00:18:17.320 But no, you guys are like, oh, this guy's automatic.
00:18:19.840 He's our guy.
00:18:20.280 He's going to win.
00:18:20.980 It's not how competition works in life.
00:18:22.620 During a season like this where a lot of people are going through challenging times, they're worried.
00:18:26.400 They don't know what's going on.
00:18:27.160 Some of the people are having a hard time with their finances, with their small businesses,
00:18:30.320 with their careers, with their families, stress period, anxiety, any of that stuff.
00:18:34.720 I said, I think we need something to make people's day.
00:18:37.580 And I think our audience wants to participate in that.
00:18:41.520 So what do we do?
00:18:42.280 We sat there and said, we want to come up.
00:18:45.160 Since our audience, a lot of business owners, executives, small business owners, entrepreneurs,
00:18:49.120 we want to send, we want to give you the opportunity to send a package to anybody you know
00:18:53.840 that's going through challenging time with a heartfelt message to make their day.
00:18:59.760 So today, we're launching this new initiative called When Life Gives You Lemons, what do we do?
00:19:08.400 Make lemonade.
00:19:09.620 This program right here, Rob, if you want to play the clip.
00:19:11.700 So we're sitting, we're coming up with this idea.
00:19:13.400 Here's what it is.
00:19:14.540 The box is when you choose to order this program that we have, okay, you send this box.
00:19:22.140 We send it on behalf of you.
00:19:24.080 That box right there, they open it up.
00:19:25.680 There's a video message being played by me, an encouraging message about what they're going through today.
00:19:31.420 They get a hat.
00:19:32.220 On top of that, they get the smell.
00:19:35.060 When you open this up, it smells like lemon.
00:19:37.800 Literally, when you open it up.
00:19:39.320 You get to pick and choose.
00:19:40.800 My video is playing right here when they open it up.
00:19:43.360 Obviously, I'm going to press pause here.
00:19:45.000 But it's an encouraging message.
00:19:46.400 You get to pick and choose what color hat they get.
00:19:48.240 But it's either the white lemon hat with Valuetainment and a lemon on the back.
00:19:52.500 And it says, when life gives you a lemon.
00:19:53.800 In the middle, it says, make lemonade.
00:19:55.460 You can choose the green hat.
00:19:57.480 Or you can choose the red and green, all of this.
00:20:00.220 But the black and green in it.
00:20:02.540 Anyways, inside of it, when you open it up, there's a Valuetainment paper that's in it.
00:20:08.360 There is this lemon squeezer that's in it.
00:20:11.620 You got these, what do you call these things?
00:20:13.300 Air fresheners.
00:20:13.700 Air fresheners in the car.
00:20:14.940 You got a bunch of stickers, a bunch of lemons, and then stress balls in it.
00:20:18.960 Okay?
00:20:19.620 They're going to laugh.
00:20:20.780 They're going to have fun with it.
00:20:22.120 But if you're somebody that's watching this, you have a friend, a family member, a co-worker
00:20:26.140 that's really going through it today.
00:20:28.360 And you want to put the biggest smile on their face,
00:20:31.160 representing both Valuetainment and the individual that's going through it.
00:20:35.380 Go to vtmerch.com, Rob, if you can help them walk through this.
00:20:38.700 And there's going to be a card in it.
00:20:39.840 You can go to vtmerch.com.
00:20:41.640 Rob, if you can go to the card so they can see what that will look like.
00:20:45.880 So they'll get that box.
00:20:47.080 You see the future looks bright on it, hashtag.
00:20:49.640 And then the notes right there with your name on the bottom left, meaning sent to you with
00:20:55.360 care from your name being in there.
00:20:57.560 So this is more than just a box.
00:20:58.740 It's a message of optimism, encouragement, and the power of turning life's lemons into
00:21:02.500 something amazing.
00:21:03.860 We want to be able to use these opportunities to make people's days.
00:21:07.800 We did this with only a limited 500 of these.
00:21:11.640 These are all handmade.
00:21:13.440 These took six weeks to make.
00:21:15.300 So we only have 500 supply.
00:21:18.060 The cost on this, we're making no money on this.
00:21:20.420 This is $74.99 to ship it to somebody with everything that's in there.
00:21:24.700 So go to vtmerch.com, place your order.
00:21:26.800 And when you do, be sure in the shipping address you put their shipping address.
00:21:31.120 Unless if you want one that comes to you, there are going to be limited supplies.
00:21:34.120 You can have one being shipped to you, and you go deliver it to somebody.
00:21:36.620 I'm personally sending 10 to people that I know, and I think Pierre Poliev is on the
00:21:40.480 list of one of the ones that I have.
00:21:42.220 Better put an apple in there, too.
00:21:45.100 They're going to be going to some of the people that I have as well.
