Speaker1: [00:00:28] I didn't violate any YouTube policy.

[00:00:33] I don't care.

Speaker2: [00:01:30] That's called a fake set because it's very hot. It's almost like you forgot. Yeah, You know what I had is because I have that red tide. So I have this is basically very weak tea. And then and then a lot of honey. But I have a cap on it which spared no expense. And then but I don't know if you know this. It acts. It keeps the heat in. So it's hot. You could ask them not to have the cap. Yes, exactly. I'm tired. So that's the that's the beginning of that conversation and the end. We have a lot to get to today. I know it's slow news day, which means there's going to be some some swerves, but jobs report is coming out. That's something that you probably want to know about. We're also going to be talking about, you know, Dylan Mulvaney now is also the one of the spokespeople for Nike. But more importantly with that, you know, you have Anheuser-Busch, you have Jack Daniels, which is a it's not not Suntory. I forgot the name of the I forgot the name of the parent company. But there are a lot of big companies rent out these corporations. Right. Who are you've heard the term go woke, go broke, but it's not actually about you, the consumer. It's not even about the employees. It's about the shareholder and it's about manipulating the market. And I have asked this question a lot. How is there this disconnect? Well, we'll explain that a little bit. And something I want to go through here today. We're seeing a lot of parallels that we saw in the 60 seconds and 70 seconds.

Speaker2: [00:02:43] A lot of you may not know this. You may think it was the era of flower power. Here's a question for you. Do you think that the 60 seconds, what do you think the top selling albums were in the 60 seconds and 70 seconds? What about films? You go back, Are you thinking hippies? Are you thinking, you know, someone putting a little daisy in a rifle before, you know, Hopefully that hand got blown apart, if that's what you're thinking. This is what the media wants you to believe, just like they want everyone thereafter. Today in the hereafter, I guess. I don't know. They want everyone to think that this is Black Lives Matter. This is mainstream America, that everyone was on board with Biden and going woke. But you know, that's not what we are living. And we're seeing the same skyrocketing crime and we're seeing the same kind of backlash. The pendulum swings the other way. And I want to analyze this a little bit. Give us a little bit of time to draw the parallels and go back through, you know, the vigilante films, Dirty Harry and and Death Wish Brutal, by the way. Do not recommend that to children. And this shows a PG 13. So then we have chat Thursday. Yeah it is of course a live show Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. Eastern. Notifications often don't work, right? So do subscriptions. They don't often work. I just sounded like Nick DiPaolo, right? Yeah. I'm sure that notification bell will be aces. Okay. It works on Rumble thing.

Speaker3: [00:03:47] There you go.

Speaker2: [00:03:47] You can hit Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. Eastern. Perfect. I can join book club. All right, Gerald, a CEO. How are you, sir? Fantastic. How are you? I'm fine. Did we get the question up there? Which big brands are you going to be supporting? Boycotting. Why do you think they're going? Well, there you go. Comment there. Nice man. Hit the comment thing. Hit the comment.

Speaker3: [00:04:04] What is going on? Oh, man. I'm the one who had.

Speaker2: [00:04:07] The cap on my tea.

Speaker3: [00:04:08] Not you.

Speaker4: [00:04:08] I didn't have any tea. I'm sorry.

Speaker2: [00:04:10] No, that's fine. All right. Well, need a rain. And you know who we have in third chair here today? We have actually. You can go and see him in Portland April 20th through 22nd. You can see all of his tour dates at Brian Salon.com. Mr. Callen.

Speaker3: [00:04:21] How are you? I'm good. Good to be here, everybody. No cap on my tea. No cap on. I am wearing a butt plug, though. Hi, guys. Come on now.

Speaker2: [00:04:27] Not off the bat. Kidding again. Not off the bat. That's also too personal. How do you.

Speaker3: [00:04:32] Wear one of those? Hard to sit, buddy, but it's called discipline. All right? And I'm willing to take one for the.

Speaker2: [00:04:37] That's also the reason for his fictitious LAT spread. I need that back when you're done, by the way. Yeah. Okay. All right, guys.

Speaker3: [00:04:41] Hepatitis. So before we.

Speaker2: [00:04:43] Get to all of that, I don't know if you know this, but NPR, this just happened yesterday. This is a win yesterday. Elon Musk's the Twitter under Elon Musk, now kind of owned by Elon Musk. They slapped a state affiliated media label on NPR's account, which NPR was furious about. Of course, they get a huge portion of their funding from the government, from from taxpayers like you. So it's a tag that the NPR, you know, disputed on their profile, but it's actually nothing in comparison to their warning of Washington Post tweets in which they slapped their account with the official label of lying commie faggots. So they're pretty upset about that. Wow. Perfect.

Speaker4: [00:05:17] I mean, apt description. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:05:19] You know.

Speaker3: [00:05:19] I mean, you know, it could be worse.

Speaker2: [00:05:22] Well, I don't know that it could. No, if you're NPR, it could be worse. Yes. If you're NPR. By the way, isn't it interesting if you go through podcasts right now, half of them are NPR, right. And they're funded by I'm funding our competition. Think about that. You are? Yeah. Through our tax dollars, we're funding our competition. It's produced in well, not entirely, but they would not be able to produce any podcasts if not for taxpayer funding. Right. And then we get to see it there in the app Store. Isn't that fun? Hey, trust your institutions. How many episodes of cereal do you need? Oh, gosh, I don't even know what that is.

Speaker3: [00:05:54] Npr True crime stories are true.

Speaker2: [00:05:56] Yeah, it's all true crime. I don't know when that I don't know when that became a thing. I'm not a.

Speaker3: [00:06:00] Fan of it. Women apparently like true crime stories. They do? Yeah, because it's a blueprint psychology. Exactly. Where women arm themselves with information. Yeah, exactly. So.

Speaker2: [00:06:09] And they live vicariously through. That's what.

Speaker4: [00:06:11] You get. That's what you get. Yes, exactly.

Speaker2: [00:06:13] Yes. Did you are you missing the point where the man was murdered? Yes. My wife was like, oh, I'm really loving this true crime. This was like a few years ago. And I'm like, should I know something? Yeah. Should I wear the gun? Always. Should I be concerned about the shallow grave in the backyard? I just thought that was a motif. Well, speaking of women here, before we move on to the jobs report, here's a girl. I don't know if Brian has seen this on the TikTok who is who has no shame.

Speaker5: [00:06:39] I love America because I was literally a welfare baby, food stamp baby. And. Now I'm blowing bubbles in the backyard with my baby in this gorgeous, gorgeous house.

Speaker4: [00:06:58] Shut up, Meg.

Speaker5: [00:06:59] All because I was a house. Meg.

Speaker4: [00:07:03] This is your man? Yes. Look at the screen.

Speaker3: [00:07:07] All right. Wow.

Speaker2: [00:07:09] All because I was a ho. Isn't. This is where.

Speaker4: [00:07:11] We are right now? You have depression at an all time high.

Speaker2: [00:07:13] You have suicide going to, you know, skyrocketing. Right now, we have crime at an all time high. We have hopelessness at an all time high. But the message to young girls, because all of it all of it, of course, is acceptable. You're perfect just the way you are.

Speaker4: [00:07:23] Be a whore. Right. Be a whore and blow bubbles.

Speaker3: [00:07:26] And make a man who's about my age feel sexy. Yes. Make him think you're actually into him for his genitals. And the way he looks naked. That guy's got a set of tits on him, huh?

Speaker2: [00:07:36] It is. It is just so sad that men are that easy to trick.

Speaker3: [00:07:39] Yeah, we all are. We just want to be admired.

Speaker2: [00:07:41] Think about how far we've gone, Right. We went from. Okay, Women shouldn't be left destitute. That's why you had divorce laws. If a man had a midlife crisis. Right? At some point he was the primary breadwinner to. We now encourage young women the fastest path to getting wealthy. Today, if you're a woman, the fastest path to getting wealthy or I guess the most effective path if you're a man is to start a business or to, you know, learn a trade. The message to young women is to be a lying whore. Well, it's true. I'm not saying all women are, but this is a message that is being thrust upon young women.

Speaker3: [00:08:08] Just get a lot of your pictures on Instagram where your ass is higher than your your head. You know what I mean? And most of the pictures are taken from behind. And there's always a guy like who's a little older who wants to be admired. Yeah, right.

Speaker2: [00:08:19] With a bubble gun, apparently. Why did she feel the bubbles were key to this story? That's. Yeah, I'm.

Speaker4: [00:08:25] Saying that's the least.

Speaker2: [00:08:25] I don't think that's super relevant.

Speaker3: [00:08:27] Bubble, but yeah.

Speaker4: [00:08:28] Maybe the alimony might be more relevant. Bubble blowing. That's also not the sign of wealth.

Speaker2: [00:08:33] Oh, I guess that was a flex as opposed to like spinners or stuff. She was showing that she has an automatic bubble gun. She she can't be bothered to go through the anguish of. That's like $8 though. Yeah.

Speaker4: [00:08:43] That's not much of a flex.

Speaker2: [00:08:44] Well, I have no idea. She's clearly dumb, by the way, this is this is this is available on Rumble. We're not on YouTube right now. It's one month free. Still two more weeks free. One more week free, I guess. One more after one more free week of mug club or.com/mug club. Everything that you see, everything that we say. Of course we couldn't say lying commie faggots on YouTube, so thanks for that. Nope. If you don't join up, this ceases to exist. All right. Did I miss anything? No. I think you're good. Let's go to Dylan Mulvaney. Oh, no, we have.

Speaker4: [00:09:10] Oh, boy. You miss something, then?

Speaker2: [00:09:11] New pictures on the Instagram apparently is a new brand. Ambassador, if you saw this, the Instagram for for Nike women. Yeah. Yeah. Nike officially changed their slogan to us Screw it. And that's.

Speaker3: [00:09:27] Yeah. And she's he he is is there's a new it's a bra. What is what is. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:09:34] Well, here's the thing. It also makes Nike's job easier because it's really easy to create a supportive bra. They don't have any tits.

Speaker3: [00:09:39] Yeah, that's true. And they have a they have a testicle cinch. I think that they're actually rolling out as well, which is the turbo.

Speaker2: [00:09:46] You know, here's the thing. And we'll get to it's called.

Speaker3: [00:09:48] It's called the turbo. I think that's the. Isn't that what.

Speaker2: [00:09:50] That's the well, that's the colloquial like that's how it's known by. It's not a.

Speaker3: [00:09:53] Ball bra for all you know, for all you sophomoric people out there it's really.

Speaker2: [00:09:58] Called. Yeah. And also it's not effective because it requires a ratchet and you need help. A needle nosed pliers and discipline. It's like, what are these knee wraps for squatting? Why are you doing this? But this is the thing right now is Dylan Mulvaney. You have Bud Light and Uzabish. You have what just happened with with Jack Daniels. Yep. Now, I don't know about you before we look, look, I understand. I also might be a little bit out of touch here, okay? I know that sometimes I'm a little bit older. I, you know, and I get not everyone. I prefer my women without penises. Okay, Stephen. But that's me. Dig it, Mr. Traditional. I know, I know, I know. It's a it's a different time.

Speaker3: [00:10:34] As long as you shave and tuck time. You have a good personality. By the way.

Speaker4: [00:10:38] When you think of fitness, do you think of the. The white Somalian essentially there that's like on this like your Nike bras On my No, they belong to me. Look at that. That's I mean, it's like three inches circumference.

Speaker2: [00:10:50] That is a weak, frail, scared little man who is now playing dress up loser.

Speaker3: [00:10:55] But I don't blame Dylan. Dylan's getting money. Dylan's getting paid. Has a good sense of humor. It's. It's Anheuser-Busch. How in the world did this How how did this happen in how does a tiny group of people have that much influence on a corporation? Good question.

Speaker2: [00:11:14] We're going to get to the answers. Good foreshadowing. Call him Steinbeck. See that? So, Steinbeck, this happened.

Speaker3: [00:11:20] Nobody reads.

Speaker2: [00:11:21] No, nobody reads.

Speaker4: [00:11:22] By the way.

Speaker2: [00:11:22] Grapes of Wrath is a commie manifesto. And it's horrible. Remember, everyone talks about Grapes of Wrath.

Speaker4: [00:11:27] It's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know how that book ends?

Speaker2: [00:11:29] American Classic. It's a full grown man sucking his mom's breasts.

Speaker3: [00:11:32] Yeah, Nursing.

Speaker4: [00:11:34] You read that to kids?

Speaker3: [00:11:35] He's an old man. He's an.

Speaker4: [00:11:36] Old man.

Speaker3: [00:11:37] Breastfeeding women's breasts are.

Speaker4: [00:11:38] It's an American classic. It's got to be another woman and not his mom. I'm pretty sure she's not lactating anymore.

Speaker3: [00:11:42] Oh, God, I'm so horny.

Speaker2: [00:11:43] It was a crossover with Oliver Twist. So there.

Speaker4: [00:11:46] We go. The.

Speaker6: [00:11:47] Udders of Wrath.

Speaker3: [00:11:50] The Otters of Wrath.

Speaker2: [00:11:51] So this comes after and Brian asked a valid question. A lot of you have been asking this, and it's not that it's a little bit complicated, but it's it's actually simple to explain. So let's go through this. Of course, you saw this with Bud Light and Kid Rock, who many people are not huge fans of, though he's been gaining some traction, shared his thoughts on the Bud Light. Dylan Mulvaney When we covered it, we said, we don't know if this is confirmed right. Bud Light confirmed it in an act of, you know, the stupidest marketing I can remember, the stupidest act of marketing since New Coke. So Kid Rock released this video online.

Speaker7: [00:12:29] Grandpa is feeling a little frisky today. That's weird. Let me say something to all of you and be as clear and concise as possible.

Speaker3: [00:12:47] Well, subtle.

Speaker7: [00:12:50] Wow. Bud Light and highs or Bush have a terrific day.

Speaker2: [00:12:56] Okay, so here's the thing. I'm pretty sure he wasn't actually shooting those. If you look at the line of attack, I think there was someone off camera. But the point remains, yes, I think that was airsoft and someone else. But the point remains to make most of America side with Kid Rock. I mean, you must be doing something really bad and another. But a friend of the show whose beloved Travis Tritt also said that he's dropping all Anheuser-Busch products from his hospitality rider.

Speaker4: [00:13:19] And by the way, I hope you guys remember.

Speaker2: [00:13:21] This, because you have all these country music stars out there. They get these Bush packages for Bush beer. That's Anheuser-Busch. So don't.

Speaker4: [00:13:26] Just make it about Bud.

Speaker2: [00:13:27] Light. Look at the umbrella company. And I know it's tough. Here's the thing. It's tough to find some companies that aren't under their umbrella. Same thing with there are about three distillers or distributors for whiskey, but there's an opportunity here. This means you can support local and mid-sized businesses. This can bring us back to the time of your grandparents. Think about that, right? We went through a period where everything had to become convenient. Everything had to become now, Now instant dinner, microwave dinners. Right. The razors that went from which is more effective, A double edged safety razor. We went to two, three, four, five blades, which does nothing but cause razor bumps. It's ridiculous. No one needs five blades. But we're going back to a time where maybe you can be more in touch with your community local because it's impossible, impossible to do business with these big brands and not be supporting something you hate. So let's look at some of these other companies. Here are some companies, by the way, who have seen losses after going woke. You've heard that it's a slogan. All reference is available at Credit.com. You have Disney Disney in 2022, they were down 2.4 million subscribers, Amazon Prime 2021 to 2022, down 2 million subscribers. The NFL per game viewership after the Colin Kaepernick. You know what is effectively modern roots to hear him say it down 400,000 viewers. Wow slaves were paid.

Speaker4: [00:14:34] Millions of dollars in his mind. Yes.

Speaker2: [00:14:35] Slaves. Slaves negotiated for $1 million. Got it. And sucked anyway.

Speaker4: [00:14:39] Yeah, well, slavery was okay. No, it was not.

Speaker2: [00:14:43] And here's the thing. You're asking this. It's because these companies don't care. They're like I said this with comedy. They're not writing for the audience anymore. They're writing for the writers room. It's a bunch of Harvard and Ivy League elites who've never taken the stage. And they say, I think this would be funny. And then everyone watches it and says, no. The same thing with the marketers for the NFL. The people at Anheuser-Busch don't realize that almost all of their market share for their Busch beer comes from middle America. But this is not about direct profit losses. If you look at this, you know, we've talked about the ESG score, which is basically a score for environmental social governance. Right? It's like a score that they apply to these companies and it includes carbon taxes, sustainability. Yes. Are you a good boy? How do we keep you in line? And the problem is you have these companies who are simply looking at this as a game and they're saying, you know what, We think we can veer it this way and think of Hollywood. You know, this these movies suck. But they're looking to open the market in China. They're looking to open markets elsewhere. And so this isn't about what's best for America at this point. Again, community country before the global community, before globalism. That is a fundamental difference in the worldview. They are saying we can right now sustain some short term losses to shape the world in the way we think it should be, which lines our pockets long term with markets who, by the way, share none of your values and have a vested interest in the destruction of your civilization? That's what it is. Yeah.

Speaker4: [00:16:00] And it gets them in good with all the right people, all the people in power who can take care of all of the competition. Yeah, exactly. Satan worshipers. But they can. They can take care of them, right? Like we talked about before, big companies can afford regulation. So they're they're in good with the politicians. That regulation comes out. It hurts the small guy coming up, taking advantage of the market gap, saying, hey, you're not serving middle America. I will. I can't take care of all this regulation, though. You guys can. I'm out of the game. Right.

Speaker3: [00:16:25] It's it's checking a box. Right. Which is kind of what they do in California. A public company in California has to have I think if it's a board of five, you have to have two women. If it's a board of seven, you have to have three women on it no matter what. So it's enforcing equity. Yeah. And so they kind of just go, well, this is the cost of doing business. Let's check that box and keep moving and figure out a way to.

Speaker4: [00:16:47] That's why all new boards in California are boards of three. Yes.

Speaker3: [00:16:50] So I could never take away I could never shoot a six pack with a machine gun in Los Angeles. No, you could not. I'd have to use my throwing. You could do a.

Speaker4: [00:16:58] Gender reveal and start a massive.

Speaker3: [00:16:59] Fire. Well, I trained in kung fu, which I shouldn't even bring up on air.

Speaker2: [00:17:02] Yeah, well, I'm an African throwing knife, man.

Speaker4: [00:17:04] What?

Speaker2: [00:17:06] Chinese? I had a guy when I was a kid, loose wrists, trying to impress chicks. It was at a show. And he said, I don't care. They said, Do you carry a gun? He was security. He said, No, I don't. I don't believe in my African throwing knives. And I said, Yeah, that's bullshit. The women were like, Why do you say that? I said, There is no way that this guy is using. First off, that's not a thing. It's not an African thing. It's a huge continent and part of Africa. There's no throwing knife that would be effective in what he needs to do would be a liability. He would be sued. Would be worse than him having a gun. I bet you this guy isn't even licensed for a Taser. And then the guy was like, Yeah, no, I am. I said, okay, show him to me. He said, There at home.

Speaker3: [00:17:36] My knives. Why would I carry them on?

Speaker4: [00:17:38] Me? Yeah, why would I.

Speaker2: [00:17:38] Carry them on me at my security job. African throwing nuts. African.

Speaker3: [00:17:43] No school to teach his African throwing knives. No, it's not. It's very tough. Until now, I would keep my knives here. I've always wanted to be honest with you. We'll move on. I've always wanted to be able to pull two knives from my back sheaths to wear them on your back sheaths and then right double throw like that. The problem is.

Speaker2: [00:17:59] Afterwards your back looks like The Passion of the Christ. There's no safe way to do it. I'll cut up my backs.

Speaker3: [00:18:03] Cut up anyway. Hi, guys. Huh.

Speaker2: [00:18:06] So here we have a quote, by the way, from McKinsey and Company. A better ESG score translates to about 10%. A 10% lower. Lower cost of capital as the risks, such as its license to operate, are reduced if you have a strong ESG score. This is insane. This is not about you. This is about globalism. This is about other countries. Let me ask you this. This is why I always I always rail against the idea of common ground. I love for you to comment below. Hit the rumble button, please, because I know we're not on YouTube and people won't know if we're on here unless you're right here on Rumble is people say common ground. Okay. I say no. Now I say there can be common ground if you can actually discuss an issue and find out, okay, where do we agree? Where do we disagree? Where do you think you are going to find common ground with the government of China, the Communist Chinese Party? Right. Do you want to Why would you want to find common ground with evil? Where are you going to find common ground? Well, we talk about the fringe.

Speaker2: [00:18:58] This administration who just yesterday, Karine Jean-Pierre said there are no limitations, no age restrictions on sex change operations for children. How do you find common ground with that? Why is there a virtue in that? I think there is no common ground and there is nothing virtuous in trying to play ball with Anheuser-Busch, with Jack Daniels. Can someone give me the name of Jack Daniels? I'm trying to remember. It's the honor of the company. It's Brown something. It's not Suntory. There's a few major companies. There's Brown-Forman, Brown-Forman, Brown-Forman. I knew that one. Nope, nope. Not for me. Dang it. All right. And this moves us on to the. What kind of effects does this have for you, The United States, the average American worker? Well, we just heard about the jobs report. And the apologists on CNN are there at the ready like, no, no, it's actually a good thing that it's bad. Good try. Do you remember back in July? I think we have a clip, in case you've forgotten, when the Fed raised the interest rates. August, was it August?

Speaker4: [00:19:50] Yeah. I think that's.

Speaker6: [00:19:51] Where our clips from. Okay.

Speaker4: [00:19:52] We said I.

Speaker2: [00:19:53] Was off by a month. I apologize. They all bleed together. But we made this prediction when the Fed raised the interest rates. And this was this was what we thought would happen. We do understand an artificially sort of manipulated economy when we were looking at lending rates for a long time and how that affected the housing market. But still, this happening in only a couple of months. I wonder. I do wonder and I would like to make a prediction as to what this likely means for the economy. Call me to the mat on it if I'm wrong.

Speaker3: [00:20:27] Yep. Very prophetic.

Speaker2: [00:20:28] Yes. Spared no expense, by the way. I was going to say, it's really hard to pull out an old hazing. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find a penny arcade? There's one in. One in. What's the name? Not. Not Colorado Springs flea market. What's the what's the springs? Right near Colorado. It's like the capital of witchcraft. No, you're just saying now you're just naming springs. This is Hot springs. He wanted us to call him Gerald Springs at one point. It's a thing. It's not Palm Springs. What?

Speaker4: [00:20:53] Palm Springs. Manitou Springs. Manitou Springs.

Speaker2: [00:20:55] Manitou Springs. Tip of.

Speaker4: [00:20:56] My tongue. I could be making that up, but.

Speaker2: [00:20:58] There's a penny. There's a penny arcade there. There is? Yeah. I don't know where I'm going with that. Here's the thing. The jobless claims this month.

Speaker3: [00:21:05] Fowls in a penny arcade way.

Speaker2: [00:21:07] Higher than expected. Now, here's the thing. Yeah, you guys can bring up overlay from Yahoo! Way expected was 200,000 228,000. Now you're just talking about that in a month. Here's the deal. I'm not an economist and people will tell you to trust the experts. Worked like a charm with the mRNA vaccine. Right. Fauci was right about AIDS being airborne, but I want there to be accountability. That's if nothing else from this show. Everyone here, that's why we provide the sources. If we're wrong, we want you to call us on it because we actually want to learn. Now, let's contrast that with the experts at CNN who are already running interference. All is well.

Speaker8: [00:21:41] And you can see that we have been sort of hovering in the 200,000 level for quite some time. So this is a bit of a jump. But Goldman Sachs actually put out a research note yesterday saying don't be surprised if we see a jump because of some seasonal factors saying that this is really the end of a technical distortion. If we do see a jump, which we now have, rather than a sharp jump in the true pace of claims.

Speaker2: [00:22:02] Oh, it's a technical distortion of what have you.

Speaker3: [00:22:04] A technical what a euphemism.

Speaker4: [00:22:06] Hold on the graph that CNN just pulled up there to make you think that everything was going well was from January of 2021, is how far back they had to go. They had to go back to the jobless claims coming out of COVID, where people were completely shut down to say, oh, look at the slope. We're doing great, right? Yeah. It's not know what you think.

Speaker2: [00:22:24] You think something more current would be more relevant. I don't understand your argument.

Speaker4: [00:22:27] I don't know. Maybe within the last year. Are you presupposing.

Speaker2: [00:22:30] That the economic indicators over the last year are more relevant to today's jobless claims than those from two years ago? Yes. All right. He hung his hat on it.

Speaker3: [00:22:39] I think Gerald Springs, the biggest threat here is lateral cooperation. Yeah, that's what I worry about. Lateral cooperation between media and between the government and between corporations. Exactly. That's that to me is the biggest threat.

Speaker2: [00:22:50] Well, that's why it bothers me so much when people say, go and start your own YouTube, go and start your own Facebook. Well, you can't do it. There's a complete stranglehold. I mean, obviously, your good friend Rogan, you had Jen Psaki saying we would encourage those on Spotify to remove this, too, to make sure that content is accurate. And we all know what happened there. There are the lost episodes that you can never find. Yeah, that's amazing. Oh, by the way, we have the Lost episodes going up tomorrow on Friday. The audio, if you're on subscribed on audio Spotify, it's like we found 600 old audio sketches back from when it was on radio. So. So you can just subscribe there on audio and you'll get it tomorrow for free. It's the only place to find it. Okay, here's something else we wanted to talk about before we get into murder and before. Yeah, the timing impeccable. Before we get into murder crime and some information that you may have sort of missed as it relates to the 60 seconds and 70 seconds and the patterns which are very similar to what we're seeing here. The dollar is is something that people are talking about, right? It's going to crash. And at least that is something. And I want to know if you guys want us to do a little more about this, because my eyes glaze over. You're you're hearing about it everywhere.

Speaker9: [00:23:53] But what would happen if it ended? You don't even really want to think about that because the consequences would be too ugly, really ugly.

Speaker8: [00:24:01] And it's really hard to overstate exactly how catastrophic the abandonment of the US dollar would be as the world's global reserve currency.

Speaker10: [00:24:12] Well, China's several years has made very clear, along with the Russians, they want to downgrade the dollar because they think that will enhance their power around the world. And certainly the way we've treated the dollar over the year has gone in that direction.

Speaker8: [00:24:24] The US dollar as we know it will definitely be dead in ten years time. We're in a sovereign debt crisis. What mathematically, things simply cannot continue as they are.

Speaker4: [00:24:36] Now.

Speaker2: [00:24:36] Using some of the panic might actually be unfounded, but some of it is relevant. And I think that unfortunately people on the right and on the left have sort of done you a disservice. Gerald. You're someone who's very up to speed on this.

Speaker3: [00:24:48] Well, so am I. This is why I bought dogecoin.

Speaker4: [00:24:50] Oh, my God. Good for.

Speaker3: [00:24:51] You, dude. Yeah, this is where it comes in play. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:24:55] I invested all of mine into that bent back paperclip in the word document. That was a bad. I don't know what I thought. It was time. I thought retro. Everything old is new again.

Speaker3: [00:25:03] Dogecoin and milk futures, guys, I'm telling you.

Speaker4: [00:25:05] Yes. Milk.

Speaker3: [00:25:07] I'm just telling you. Yes. It spoils quick, but yeah. No, look.

Speaker4: [00:25:10] There's a lot of fear porn right now that the US dollar is crashing and that this has never happened before. And it's unprecedented. And there are some things about what's going on in the world that are new or that are kind of like concerning, but people that think they need to run out tomorrow and change everything over to gold or something else, they're probably not accurate. The whole picture needs to be taken into account. It's probably not accurate that we're going to crash like some of these people are saying and some people online saying it, too. By the way, if anybody ever tells you like the US dollar is going to crash and then there's a gold commercial that comes up, probably not believe those guys, but we actually have a deep dive kind of prepared for this. So we could if you guys are interested, just let us know in the comment.

Speaker2: [00:25:46] Let us know in chat if you want us to do a deep dive. We had a whole thing today. I was like, This is a little bit too long and I'm going to trust G. Gordon Liddy to tell me everything I need to know. That's right.

Speaker3: [00:25:53] Gold But at the end of the day, do you have confidence in the Chinese economy or the American economy? I know that's that's my question. If you think the dollar is going to die, what are you going to replace the dollar with? What economy is going to back up? What what a currency. Zimbabwe dude I'm so smart indentured servitude.

Speaker2: [00:26:13] I it's a it's a barter system with humans. It really.

Speaker4: [00:26:16] Is. Yeah yeah.

Speaker3: [00:26:17] Yeah. Slavery is.

Speaker2: [00:26:18] Everything old is.

Speaker3: [00:26:19] New again. Slavery is bad until until it's necessary. Until the dollar is threatened. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:26:24] Everything old is new again, right? That's what it is. They're going to have slavery shirt at hot topic. Yeah. I mean, I like slavery. Before it was cool.

Speaker4: [00:26:29] So what?

Speaker2: [00:26:32] I don't know, Stephen. I have no idea. By the way, I think I already said it's a live show Monday through Thursday. Yeah, Monday through Friday, actually. Tomorrow we have a show on Good Friday, which we're looking forward to doing. So I wanted to get into something here that a lot of you may or may not be aware of. There's this misconception that people have regarding kind of our past and this idea of the hippies and the 60s and 70s. And we are seeing a trend right now that I think mirrors it quite a bit. You know, the 60 seconds and the 70 seconds, it became this idea of soft on crime, right? Crime skyrocketed. And then that brought us anti-heroes like Dirty Harry, like Deathwish. A lot of people don't know the American public made those films successful. The American public were not out there supporting the hippie flower power movement. The American public wanted to see rule of law, and we're kind of seeing that now with skyrocketing crime. The media telling you that everything is okay. And the biggest movies are Maverick and John Wick. Right. So this is this is a good example of a disconnect. And what did that do? That brought way to the 80 seconds, not saying we're in the same exact climate, but certainly as it relates to to to crime, there's this disconnect. And I want to know you can come in if you guys have been feeling this so tragically. Tuesday morning, Cash app founder Bob Lee was stabbed to death. Right. This is a story everywhere. And our friend Jake Shields actually talked about this in San Francisco, which is not atypical. And we'll get into.

Speaker4: [00:27:47] And tonight we are learning more about 43 year old Bob Lee.

Speaker11: [00:27:50] The tech executive who was killed in San Francisco. There are now flowers near the spot on Main Street where he was found suffering from stab wounds about 230 yesterday morning. Abc7 news reporter stephanie sierra has been following the latest on the investigation and is live in the newsroom with more on the story. Steph.

Speaker8: [00:28:07] Yes, dan well, several sources confirm surveillance footage shows bob lee was walking down main street in san francisco's rincon hill area after this attack. He was looking for help before he fell to the ground on the sidewalk. Now, we don't know what exactly led up to the stabbing, but we're told Lee was in town this week on business.

Speaker2: [00:28:26] Now, actually a friend of the show. Maybe we'll have him on next week. He's been on quite a few. He was on our show, actually, after he punched out an Antifa person at Berkeley. Remember the riots and the burning there. And I was surprised that Jake Shields was a conservative. Wait, wait, wait. The the pot shop owning vegan Jake Shields, he was like, I'm tired of this in Berkeley. He's very yeah.

Speaker3: [00:28:43] He's become a conservative. I had the the pleasure of rolling in jujitsu with Jake once I was in the round robin and he didn't know me know. And he was afraid I'd get position on him. So he decided. Not to usually roll with an actor right in his at the time. Right. Go easy. Go easy. And I came out a new woman, though, so that was. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker2: [00:29:06] It ended with the Grapes of Wrath submission.

Speaker3: [00:29:09] Indeed. He was on top of me the whole time. He's no good.

Speaker2: [00:29:11] But he's a really nice guy.

Speaker3: [00:29:13] Sounds like authority. Smells like authority. He's a sharp guy.

Speaker2: [00:29:16] Very sharp guy. And this really hits close to. He was a friend of Lee's. Yes. Kashyap founder. He tweeted out that I just found out my good friend was killed last night. He was in a, quote, good part of the city, f San Francisco. And Elon Musk replied saying, violent crime in San Francisco is horrific. And even if attackers are caught, they are often released immediately. Now, keep in mind, one of our strikes on YouTube was relating to inmate crime. Right? Transgender inmate crime. We also got to strike a very long time ago when we did a we did an entire roundup of Black Lives Matter victims. Right? We went through we went through. We did. Well, it was pre that. But we also had Trayvon. We had Mike Brown. We went through all of them and kind of gave you some context. And YouTube this is maybe 2017 said, oh, but that could be perceived as racist because of course, it was largely black victims of police violence. So this is a trend that's been going on for a long time and mainstream media and now big tech, they don't allow you to speak on it. That's why that's relevant, that Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, can comment the truth because we're not allowed to. And on Twitter, you would have been shadow banned or removed. Now, let me give you some other cold, hard truths. From 2020, 22, 2022, crime in San Francisco has increased dramatically. So in two years, homicide up 15%, assault up 20%, rape up 25%. Larceny and theft up 58%.

Speaker3: [00:30:32] Deadnaming up 50%.

Speaker2: [00:30:34] Yes, exactly. And that didn't have there. No one is unaffected. It's unbelievable. What do you do when they come for you, Dylan?

Speaker3: [00:30:42] Let that sit.

Speaker2: [00:30:43] I was talking to I was talking to McDermott. He was waiting for my best friend's wedding to. Is that is that Dylan McDermott or Dermot Mulroney?

Speaker3: [00:30:49] Dermot Mulroney. But it may as well be Dylan. But we got.

Speaker2: [00:30:52] It. But we still got it. It's the same person.

Speaker3: [00:30:54] Dermot versus you have to know if you name your kid. Dermot Yes, there people are going to say. Dylan Yes, you're going to have to go. No, it's Dermot Yeah, but the.

Speaker2: [00:31:02] Good news is he'll get a nice Nike sponsorship. Exactly. The drug problem, by the way, is so bad on in San Francisco that the mayor London breed has now called in the feds.

Speaker4: [00:31:13] How about you just do your job, London? Yeah, that would be easier. You don't need to call in. The feds. Just put them in prison.

Speaker2: [00:31:19] Yeah, well, you know what? Here's the thing. It starts with and this is, you know, the broken windows theory. When you go back to Giuliani, everyone said it was racist. You allow in San Francisco, we've joked about it for years. You allow people to crap in the streets and you do nothing and you allow people to do drugs everywhere. And I know the libertarians, man, it's not affecting. No, no shit in the streets is affecting me. Needles in the streets are. And it also irreparably damages the city. Right? It starts with vandalism. It starts with poop in the streets. It starts with drug paraphernalia everywhere. And then people don't respect their surroundings and you end up with this kind of crime. I'm not saying that pooping in the streets is the same as rape and murder. I am saying that all of it tracks together when you are soft on crime. And there are a few reasons for this, not the least of which is look, we talked about this a long time ago. Chickens are coming home to roost. San Francisco, right. Defund the police. San Francisco is now short 540 police officers. That's not even including Oakland. Used to be San Francisco safe Oakland death.

Speaker4: [00:32:18] Right now it's death. Death.

Speaker2: [00:32:20] Now it's just everywhere, you know?

Speaker4: [00:32:22] Right. And I used to fly through San Francisco on my way to Napa. Like you fly into San Francisco, you go across the Golden Gate Bridge. It's fantastic to go from wine, country, whatever, right? Business. We would always grab some food and go down to the park that looks like the Golden Gate Bridge. And you can sit down there right where Gardelli is and all that stuff. And you were fine. Perfectly safe. Not a care in the world. Girardelli You mean.

Speaker2: [00:32:40] The chocolate place?

Speaker4: [00:32:40] Chocolate. They have a big chocolate place, right?

Speaker2: [00:32:42] You just Geraldton Real chocolate for reference. Yeah. By the way, he's the only guy who does a 12 hour layover in San Francisco every time there's a Folsom Street fair.

Speaker3: [00:32:49] And he goes straight to Ghirardelli.

Speaker2: [00:32:50] Yes, exactly.

Speaker4: [00:32:51] You think I need 12 hours?

Speaker3: [00:32:52] Girardelli store opens. Yes, exactly. That's the thing about me. Just go to the.

Speaker2: [00:32:56] Duty free shop. Yeah, exactly. I'm pretty sure I'm still gay.

Speaker3: [00:33:00] I love their apples. Girardelli chocolate. Oh, you.

Speaker2: [00:33:03] Peasants. I'm a Lindt man. Lindor. Yeah, but you used to.

Speaker3: [00:33:06] Be too much vanilla.

Speaker4: [00:33:07] In those safe and hang out. And it was beautiful. It was wonderful city and that part of the city, right? Yeah, Not even close. And I think the last time I was there was like six years ago. Horrifically bad. Yes. There's no way that I would take at the time the woman I was dating. Now my wife, I would never take her there. We actually drove by and I was like, Yeah, we're not doing this well.

Speaker2: [00:33:25] And you can see the real, you know, being on the road, right? You can see cities pre and post COVID.

Speaker3: [00:33:29] I saw a massive difference. You saw there was always a part of my buddy was a cop. So I did a couple of drive alongs with him. Yeah. Where? In the Tenderloin District. There was an area that was really the they decided, let's have a district where people can do their drugs and we won't really bother them. I mean, that was really what it was, right? And you had open air drug markets, but then after Black Lives Matter and COVID, it just. Truly the people on the City Council of San Francisco. There isn't one Democrat. They're not Democrats. They're truly socialists and communists and will tell you that.

Speaker2: [00:34:06] Well, actually, the mayor London breed, by the way, he did defund the police. She. Oh sorry. London breed. Yeah. Sorry. I was talking about London Bridge. Yeah. We're back to. That's a woman. The mayor. Yes. Mayor London Breed is a woman.

Speaker4: [00:34:16] Her last name is Breed.

Speaker3: [00:34:17] Grew up, grew up in a housing projects. And her even got so fed up with the crime, her own car was broken into. And she said, the bullshit stops here. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:34:26] Once it affects her. No, it.

Speaker3: [00:34:27] Doesn't. It affects her.

Speaker2: [00:34:28] Still going on. She's like, No, they're smoking crack. They're shooting up. The odds are up. Who cares? Wait, They broke in. They broke into my Prius. All right. Fornicating in the back seat. All right. Even I have my limits.

Speaker4: [00:34:38] You can't do that in a back seat of a Prius. What's the matter with you.

Speaker2: [00:34:40] In Louisville, Kentucky? Yeah. Never a great city, let me be honest. But before COVID, I went there and it was fine. And then recently when we went there, I watched a guy od that day. I watched someone die od in front of me and yeah. And when I went to CVS or Narcan.

Speaker3: [00:34:54] Pen, I.

Speaker2: [00:34:55] Did not I did not I should carry around with me always. There's also a debate about that. If EMTs should be forced to deliver Narcan to serial drug offenders. But that's a conversation for another day. But I also noticed that CVS and Walgreens, they lock up the socks. Yeah, the socks. I'm sorry, What? Yeah, I needed a I needed a pair of gym socks. I forgot to pack. You know, when you pack, I forgot socks. And I went and it was behind bulletproof glass. Like this was the Hope diamond. The $8 pair of socks. Yes.

Speaker4: [00:35:22] Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:35:23] And they. They just said everyone steals everything. Yeah. That's what happened in Louisville. So they defunded the police, by the way, London $120 million budget cut in San Francisco. So now they're 540 police short. And here's the thing. The left keeps doing the same thing and expecting different results. And you have to deal with the consequences. And this is not new. You can learn from history. Let's go back to Chicago. Chicago, it tracks exactly from 2019 to 2022. Murder was up 39%. Now, let me give you some context here. Murder in Chicago for those who may be uninitiated was already high, was already, you know, towards the you know, towards the towards the the top. By by toward I mean, at the top of the list. Civil war. It's not like you had a city that was peaceful. And so all of a sudden you had some kind of anomaly. You have to try really hard to increase murder year over year in Chicago. Like you have to be going out with a plan.

Speaker4: [00:36:17] You should have pretty good years. It's hard to top that in Chicago. They did.

Speaker3: [00:36:20] It's also important to remember that all those murders were of black people. Largely. Yes. Yes. Yeah. So?

Speaker2: [00:36:27] Well, Carl Winslow snapped. You just went in one day.

Speaker3: [00:36:32] It wasn't Winslow. Yes, it was Winslow.

Speaker2: [00:36:34] One, two, three, two, one.

Speaker1: [00:36:36] One, two, three.

Speaker2: [00:36:37] Like. Holy shit. Yeah. You should see Urkel. They couldn't even I.D. the body. No.

Speaker4: [00:36:42] Oh, yes, they could.

Speaker2: [00:36:45] Come on. Turns. It looks like they turned his body into God. Nietzsche's all right. That's. I'm sorry. I'm a I'm a funny mortician. Check for tattoos.

Speaker3: [00:36:51] Did I do.

Speaker2: [00:36:52] That? I'm a funny coroner. Here's my card. Between 2021 and 2022, theft went up 56%, robbery went up 14%. And Chicago, here's the thing. We were talking about this on CNN. They just elected a new mayor. Okay. I know what you're thinking. Tough on crime. They elected it. No, no. It's a new mayor who if you look at what he is promoting, he's basically letting you know that he is so sure, he's so confident with his job security that he is going to change nothing. He'll undoubtedly make it worse. Here is the newly elected mayor, Brandon Johnson, talking about. Defunding the police.

Speaker12: [00:37:29] The president of the United States, the former president of the United States I'm sorry, President Barack Obama took it one step further as well. And and basically said that the effort of the defund police movement lost an audience because of of that. That slogan, I guess, is was your voters killed them all which I don't look at it as a slogan it's it's an actual real political goal.

Speaker3: [00:37:57] Oh, is he saying that that is his goal or is he saying no?

Speaker2: [00:38:02] He did say he was going to defund the police.

Speaker3: [00:38:03] Is he being taken out of context?

Speaker2: [00:38:05] He's saying taken out of context. Believe me, I do my research. Playing devil's advocate.

Speaker3: [00:38:09] Just playing devil's.

Speaker2: [00:38:11] You're going to know there's so many clips. We just had to pick one. And that was the dumbest one. Yeah, they're all dumb. Yeah, they're all very dumb. So he said So his solution is in Chicago. Okay, You have gun crime that's at an all time high. And he wants a red flag. Laws. He said this. We do not manufacture guns in Chicago yet we have guns flowing in. I'm also pretty sure they don't manufacture guns in rural east Texas. It could not be less relevant. And, you know, we need to look at police. We need to look at reducing the police. His campaign slogan is, Ain't nothing gonna change.

Speaker3: [00:38:42] Okay? So that I'm done with this, this stereotypical Chinese accent.

Speaker1: [00:38:46] Ask me about crime. Ask me about crime. You can keep that shit. It will not change. You ain't going to get a gun. Criminals are still going to have guns. Ask me about poverty. Okay.

Speaker3: [00:38:56] Come on, Brian. Let me. Okay, fine. Let me. What about poverty?

Speaker1: [00:38:59] Poverty is going. Yes, yes, yes. To poverty. I'm not yes to you not having a gun. Gangs having a guns. Yes. To increase 50% on the murder rate I'm doing. Ain't nothing gonna change. Vote for me.

Speaker3: [00:39:11] I like my theft. You sound like Lori Lightfoot with a dick right now.

Speaker1: [00:39:14] Hey, hold on a second. Don't interrupt. Now, that's. That's rude. You said I like my. You like your theft. Can I keep my. You can keep your. I can keep my. You can keep your theft. I'm a catch. And release that motherfucker. Hercules. Hercules, you say Wait. Violent crime. Violent crime. Ain't that a violent crime punishable by shit in Chicago? Nothing. Go change. Vote for me.

Speaker4: [00:39:37] You think we're kidding? You think we're just. You think.

Speaker1: [00:39:38] We're kidding?

Speaker2: [00:39:39] This guy just became mayor. And here's something.

Speaker1: [00:39:41] Here's something. By the way. Here's something. You know what is more more racist than doing a voice?

Speaker2: [00:39:46] Come at me, bro.

Speaker1: [00:39:47] It's let's look at the map.

Speaker2: [00:39:50] That voted for Johnson.

Speaker1: [00:39:52] Okay. Let's look side by side. Look at where he voted. Now, that other map right there, I'm trying.

Speaker2: [00:39:55] To see if it's your left. My right.

Speaker1: [00:39:56] One of those maps.

Speaker2: [00:39:57] Is the.

Speaker4: [00:39:58] District. It's the murder hotspots where the murder hotspots.

Speaker1: [00:40:01] And then on the right are the districts that voted for him.

Speaker4: [00:40:04] For the guy that said defund the police. So the people that had the highest murder rates in their district said, yeah, we don't need it.

Speaker2: [00:40:09] Crips are going.

Speaker1: [00:40:10] Finally, a politician who speaks my language.

Speaker3: [00:40:12] And by the way, his his his opponent was basically a moderate Democrat. Right? Yeah. And they used and he was a pro-choice. He's actually pro-choice. But he said ten years ago, he said something to the effect of I'm fundamentally pro-life, meaning I'm pro-life, but I wouldn't push my morality on on the people, which is stupid. And they kept rolling that. But he has a mayor has nothing to do with Roe v Wade. I know absolutely nothing. But they but they in his campaign, he kept running the fact that my opponent is a pro-life, pro-police racist. Yes.

Speaker2: [00:40:46] My opponent does not speak for the people of Chicago. Yeah.

Speaker1: [00:40:49] All you murderers.

Speaker2: [00:40:50] All you stabbers, all you thieves.

Speaker1: [00:40:52] I know your districts. I got a map.

Speaker2: [00:40:54] I'm. I'm going to keep it exactly the same.

Speaker1: [00:40:56] And you are going to have an easy time under my mayorship. That's what I dig about you. The Sausage King. I feel like that's.

Speaker2: [00:41:03] What people said. Like, I feel like I don't have these politicians. They speak in a way that. But this man speaks in plain English. I can I can stab somebody.

Speaker1: [00:41:09] Well, good. You know what? You're right. I'll vote for him. Yeah, I got to practice my stabbing. Yes.

Speaker3: [00:41:14] More of the same.

Speaker2: [00:41:15] More of the same. And you guys can. Well, anyway, let me move on here. You guys can hit the rumble button. Smash that rumble button. Actually, right now, because rumble is a lot of fun. No way we could do this. You don't know what gets you removed on YouTube. That's the problem. You never have any idea.

Speaker4: [00:41:29] Don't you have to think about it?

Speaker3: [00:41:30] Accents like that, Stephen?

Speaker2: [00:41:31] No. Yeah. Cause wasn't there something else on the map today that was supposed to be a layup for the practice of stabbing it? Wasn't there a video of a crime being committed?

Speaker4: [00:41:39] Are we?

Speaker1: [00:41:39] No. No.

Speaker2: [00:41:40] Did it get removed?

Speaker4: [00:41:41] We're past.

Speaker1: [00:41:42] It. We're past it. Did I miss it?

Speaker4: [00:41:43] No. Yes. Did I skip past it? I missed it. You didn't.

Speaker2: [00:41:46] I missed it.

Speaker4: [00:41:48] Okay. Can we stab him? Stab me?

Speaker1: [00:41:50] Was it was it a video about.

Speaker2: [00:41:52] I don't know. I have no idea. Anyway, I'll talk about it. It's one of those weird days. So here's the thing. We see this in Chicago. You see this in San Francisco, we see this across. That's one thing that comedians and bands and people who travel for a living, you have the benefit of seeing the pre and post. And it's not just, by the way, I'm not blaming it on the pandemic. I'm blaming it on the opportunists using it to destroy your country. It wasn't because of the cough, okay? It was because of locking down the country. It was because of shutting down. And I've said this a lot. It didn't just harm the economy. It irreparably damaged the economy that people knew their entire lives for generations. That's the issue here.

Speaker1: [00:42:27] Sure, there'll be other.

Speaker2: [00:42:28] Ways economies will adapt. Yeah, but the economy that you knew, whether it's restaurants, whether it's live venues, small businesses, they're gone forever. Yeah, they're gone forever.

Speaker3: [00:42:37] It took 30 years to build. And we'll see you later. Yep. Yeah.

Speaker1: [00:42:40] And then you.

Speaker2: [00:42:40] Wonder why there's unrest. I mean, not you guys here, but of course. Ridiculous.

Speaker4: [00:42:43] No, in Chicago. I mean, a large part of that spike. So we use 39%. A large part of that spike was because of COVID. And now they're saying, hey, but 2022 actually murder went down. Yeah, it was 500. I think 500 murders. That's a lot, right? 500 murders or right about there in 2019. And I think it was like 695 or 600 and something in 2022. So you're doing a real bang up job. Yeah. Your normal numbers were down here. You're still up 20 some odd percent.

Speaker2: [00:43:09] Well, in Austin, for example, they say murders are down, but rapes are up dramatically.

Speaker4: [00:43:13] Right? I mean, you just skew these numbers to make it sound like you're doing a good job. Look, if you're a person that lives in Chicago, I've been there a ton of times. I go to Notre Dame through Chicago every single time a black person is driving or I see somebody there telling me how much they hate the city every single.

Speaker1: [00:43:28] If they're driving, what they talk.

Speaker2: [00:43:29] To you from their car.

Speaker4: [00:43:30] Like if you're on a, you know, the tram or something like that and you're riding with somebody or they're driving, well, no one's.

Speaker2: [00:43:34] Driving the train. It's an engineer.

Speaker3: [00:43:36] Nobody drives a tram.

Speaker1: [00:43:37] Gerald, What is he talking about?

Speaker4: [00:43:39] I said, the shuttle bus. What I'm saying is, every.

Speaker2: [00:43:41] Interaction you go on the San Francisco trolley.

Speaker1: [00:43:43] And go, beep, beep, like a kid.

Speaker2: [00:43:44] With a hot wheel. I do.

Speaker3: [00:43:45] Yeah. Do you really travel with a common cattle? Yes, I do. Oh, my God, I do. Do you get that poor juice on your elbows?

Speaker4: [00:43:51] I don't have the, you know, nice car service money. Okay, well, please.

Speaker1: [00:43:55] No, but it is true. It's every.

Speaker2: [00:43:56] Single interaction.

Speaker4: [00:43:57] Every single interact with somebody in that city, the voting block that they say they're representing. That's why I said black people, because other people obviously had the same thing. But black people, they say, I represent, you know, they're like, this place sucks. I cannot believe the crime here.

Speaker2: [00:44:08] There is no group of people who are more overrepresented in the media while being completely unrepresented than the average black American. You think Joy Reid represents them? You think this mayor does? No, no, no, not at all. You think Barack Obama does.

Speaker3: [00:44:20] The people driving this narrative are primarily white liberals who pay no price for being wrong. Right? No price. It's everybody else until they break shut down that businesses and you know what's that and so what they break.

Speaker2: [00:44:33] Into your Kia the mayor it is.

Speaker3: [00:44:35] On that's right.

Speaker2: [00:44:37] No you're absolutely right. And here's the thing. This is something we've been here before and this is a lot of young people may not necessarily. Is there something breaking there? Anything about a lot of young people may not necessarily know this because we've been fed a lie. So when you think about the 1960s and the 1970s, and this is why I want you to remember where you are right now, to remember what you are living, what we are talking about, and have this discussion with your kids in 20, 30 years from now. Because the exact same kind of gaslighting, you know, it used to be the victors write history, right? Well, in this today, that's not even the case. Right? When Donald Trump won, it doesn't matter. The people writing history are the media people in big tech who are protected by, by the way, these career established these coronated politicians. So it's not just about the White House. If you would take the power of the White House over the power of over the power of the entertainment industry, of all of Hollywood and Silicon Valley, I would say that you need a CAT scan because they try and write a history and it's a false history they're doing right now what they did with the 60s and 70 seconds. And let me make my case here. A lot of you, when you think of the 60s, right, early 70s, what comes to mind is probably something like this, which you've seen.

[00:45:49] I don't care if. Show is a marvel. What are we fighting for? I mean, I don't give a damn.

Speaker1: [00:46:01] Yeah. So you think about the hippies, right? You think about if you see the Spirit of the 60s albums.

Speaker2: [00:46:05] I don't know if they do that anymore. No, that's what I call 60s.

Speaker3: [00:46:07] Yeah, What you see is hippies. I see gonorrhea, guys I've never wanted. That's the problem with free sex. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:46:13] Yeah. Especially when it's in the mud. It's not free.

Speaker3: [00:46:15] It was post-pill. Never free post pill Pre-aids, though, huh? So take a little penicillin and keep on rocking. What was pre.

Speaker2: [00:46:22] Knowing about the aids? We just thought they had a wonderful diet plans.

Speaker4: [00:46:26] You're looking great. Oh, you're looking great.

Speaker2: [00:46:28] A little scabby.

Speaker1: [00:46:29] Little scabby.

Speaker2: [00:46:30] Little.

Speaker1: [00:46:30] Gaunt. So that's what you think of hippies?

Speaker2: [00:46:33] Yeah, but in reality, the 70 seconds, the 60 seconds and 70 seconds were more like this.

Speaker13: [00:46:41] Do you remember when we had the meat shortage? There was no meat. All right. Nobody ate steak after that because he went up to $3 340 a pound. Same thing with gas. Gas is up to a dollar and a quarter. They buy conservatively.

Speaker14: [00:46:53] That's a live shot again, of that fire in the South Bronx that Keith called to your attention just a few moments ago. Wonder how many alarms are involved. But as Keith said, the fire department really has its work cut out for them.

Speaker11: [00:47:07] I'm in San Francisco for the man known as the Zodiac Killer. The elements involved today included psychiatrist patient looks a lot like scarred for school buses. It's a bad.

Speaker1: [00:47:17] Sketch.

Speaker3: [00:47:18] Well, that narrows it down.

Speaker11: [00:47:19] A nice target. I shall wipe out the brown hair. Morning. Shoot out the tires and then pick off the kiddies as they come bounding out. Yes, I.

Speaker1: [00:47:27] Guess a white man, but. So for reference, look at this sketch of a clearly Asian gentleman.

Speaker4: [00:47:33] We have a racist sketch artist. Yes.

Speaker1: [00:47:36] We believe that it was blond hair, blue eyes. For reference, here's a picture of Sidney Poitier. We think that will serve you well.

Speaker3: [00:47:41] Yeah.

Speaker1: [00:47:43] They call me Mr. Detail.

Speaker3: [00:47:45] A little more detail. Yeah. He was white cloud, white hair and dots for eyes. And here's a.

Speaker2: [00:47:51] Picture of a guy who's none of that.

Speaker3: [00:47:52] I think he had eyes and a nose. Yeah. Hair oval. Face. Oval face.

Speaker6: [00:47:57] Our sketch artist was five. Yes.

Speaker1: [00:47:59] Our sketch. Yes. That's the last time I got a sketch artist from the police. So they want you to believe that flower power. Black Panthers, right? All of that was mainstream.

Speaker2: [00:48:06] Why? Well, because Barack.

Speaker1: [00:48:08] Obama was in that movement.

Speaker2: [00:48:10] Right? When you look at Biden wants you to believe he was in that movement, everyone. So you look at them and say that must have been mainstream. I mean, let's ignore Kamala Harris listening to Tupac before, you know, Tupac would have actually existed. But here's the thing. None of that is accurate. Let me give you a few examples. And the reason that this matters is you are the catalyst for change. The pendulum swung back and I'll show you how it swung back. And right now, there's an opportunity for that to happen. So when you think of the top selling albums, the 60 seconds, 60s, right 60s, hippies and then 70s, there's kind of that, right? We're talking like 60s through early 70 seconds and then it kind of switched to disco. You would probably.

Speaker3: [00:48:42] Think Mamas and the Papas maybe.

Speaker2: [00:48:44] Yeah. So 1960 to 65. Sound of Music. Camelot, West Side Story.

Speaker1: [00:48:49] Hello, Dolly. What? Mary Poppins.

Speaker2: [00:48:51] Now let's go to 1965 through 1969. You have Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Tijuana Brass. You have the monkeys. Then you do have the Jimi Hendrix experience. By the way, Jimi Hendrix was opening up for the monkeys. Wow. Just so you know. So there were some of those, but.

Speaker1: [00:49:04] The highest were show tunes, country music.

Speaker2: [00:49:07] You go back, you probably don't think of Ballad of the Green Berets. They want.

Speaker1: [00:49:11] You to think that it was everyone was on board with the.

Speaker2: [00:49:14] Beatles on acid.

Speaker1: [00:49:15] Trips when the fact is most people thought they were assholes. Most people hated these hippies on their campus because they wanted to get to class. It's just like you today. But if you go back and you buy that, guess what? You're already starting. You're already operating at a loss. It's not true. So what you have to do is cut someone off at the pass and go, No, no. The 60 seconds and the 70 seconds could have been great. They started sucking because of hippies and soft on crime policy, which, by the way, Americans hated. Let's go to that. The 60 seconds and 1970s. You probably don't know that it was a it was like a scape from the 70 seconds. Murder rates spiked 60s and 70s. There's a 104% increase between 1960 to 1980. Wow. Wow. Violent crime, 60 to 70 up 126%. 70 to 80 up 64%. Think about that for a second. Wow. Why do you think there was there was a Ronald Reagan to a Jimmy Carter. Exactly right. And by the way, when you go back to even if you look at people like JFK, these are this is a guy who supported the Vietnam War. Right.

Speaker4: [00:50:11] What happened to, you know, peace and, you know, love, man, that's all we want. Yeah, because that's what you.

Speaker1: [00:50:16] If Nixon didn't.

Speaker2: [00:50:17] Get caught, have you can someone bring this up an overlay when people talk about a landslide election? Yeah. You guys need to see the Nixon map. When he won, it wasn't even.

Speaker4: [00:50:25] Close, was it? Nixon? Mondale? Is that Who did he beat?

Speaker2: [00:50:27] No, Mondale was. Mondale was a Reagan. Reagan. Yeah. Yeah. I watched that debate on C-SPAN all the time. Just because who am I thinking of? I like to watch a good spanking old butter. I don't know. Someone can bring up that map. So here's the thing. Crime went up, right? We just and all the references are available at Laterwith Credit.com. Now, this here's the here's here's the backlash. Think of you think of those artists as far as music, but you also think of some iconic film characters and oh, bring up do we have that map really quickly? Here's the Nixon map. Bam. There you go. Wow.

Speaker3: [00:50:56] Mcgovern Wow. Is that really is that that's unbelievable.

Speaker2: [00:50:59] And when you understand. Sure. Was it wrong? Did he do it? But when you understand what level of child's play Watergate is compared to what happens today, Correct?

Speaker1: [00:51:07] We're all being Watergate. Yep. Just to be clear, I mean, being.

Speaker2: [00:51:11] Spied on, I know it's more complicated than that, but shut up. I have a segment here.

Speaker1: [00:51:14] Not you guys, but.

Speaker2: [00:51:15] He lied about it.

Speaker1: [00:51:16] Stephen, that's a I get so mad about this because people say I lived through the 60 seconds the number.

Speaker2: [00:51:21] And what happens is people say that and so then you have more people now experimenting with hallucinogenic drugs, thinking it's consequence free.

Speaker1: [00:51:25] Because they believe that no, actually it was a very small percentage of people in the 60s and 70s. It was never mainstream. And this is why you see the.

Speaker2: [00:51:32] Big box office blockbusters.

Speaker1: [00:51:33] Right at the tail end of this early 70.

Speaker2: [00:51:36] Seconds, late 60 seconds, you saw the rise of the.

Speaker1: [00:51:39] Anti-hero vigilante.

Speaker2: [00:51:41] Movies like Dirty Harry and movies like Death Wish. Americans were saying.

Speaker1: [00:51:45] We're seeing skyrocketing violent crime. We're having politicians who are soft on crime. We're being told that the police are corrupt. And so everything has to be letter of the law. Criminals have rights. And Americans wanted strong leadership.

Speaker2: [00:52:00] And instead of peace based on a lie, they wanted justice.

Speaker1: [00:52:03] Here are the movie stars. Here are the action heroes from the early 70 seconds being This is a 44 magnum, the.

Speaker15: [00:52:09] Most powerful handgun in the world and would blow your head clean off. You've got to ask yourself one question Do I feel lucky? Well, do you, punk? You got money, man.

Speaker2: [00:52:21] For a simplisafe commercial. The criminal be a white guy. Ha ha.

Speaker15: [00:52:25] Shit. I'll kill you. Give me your money or I'll bust you up.

Speaker3: [00:52:33] That's a blond moustache, right? There it is. Shh.

Speaker1: [00:52:44] But what's so funny about those movies.

Speaker2: [00:52:46] Is how they die. Well, it's how they die as well. I mean, this is a happy ending. But what's funny is they they're incredibly graphic, right? Like the rape and death wish, if you haven't seen it, because they need to establish, you know, a motive for revenge, but then they still soften the language like a criminal's going to say, hey.

Speaker1: [00:53:02] I'll bust you up.

Speaker3: [00:53:03] I'll bust you up, pal.

Speaker1: [00:53:04] You ever seen a WorldStar video?

Speaker2: [00:53:05] The language is quite a bit more severe than that.

Speaker4: [00:53:07] Well, basically, he said, I'll kill you. And then he said, I'll bust you. I'll give you a knuckle sandwich.

Speaker3: [00:53:11] I'll take. I'll bust.

Speaker4: [00:53:12] You up instead of kill.

Speaker3: [00:53:13] Me. There we go. It's going to really smart all over your body. I'll give you a.

Speaker1: [00:53:16] Five finger discount talking to Susie Q and cold FLC.

Speaker3: [00:53:20] I can be only I can be pushed only so far. See? Yes.

Speaker1: [00:53:23] And he killed him with a roll of quarters in a sock.

Speaker2: [00:53:25] Yes. Which, by the way, is an incredibly effective weapon. You may not, but you have to buy the double socket. You have to double sock it.

Speaker3: [00:53:32] History is repeating itself. Yep. John Wick four, huh? Yep. Top Gun Maverick. The two biggest movie stars in Hollywood are men in their 60 seconds. Straight men in their 60 seconds. Everybody, can I get an amen? Yes, exactly.

Speaker2: [00:53:44] Completely straight. Man. Oh, man. Who have not had one of the world's most corrupt religions cover up anything.

Speaker3: [00:53:49] I'm just saying, Stephen, I agree. I agree. Why do you have to ruin my party? I've met him. He's a friend. I did. I did talk to him for an hour and a half. And I will say, as a straight man, if he had just leaned in for a kiss, the peer pressure would have been overwhelming.

Speaker2: [00:54:03] Tom Cruise. Lean in. You mean get off a step ladder?

Speaker3: [00:54:06] Well, I would. That makes it more feminine. He's got a small face. Yes, he does. He has a very exactly right side. Your happy place.

Speaker2: [00:54:12] Features.

Speaker3: [00:54:13] Birdlike. Right. And he shaves closely. Yeah, right. He might wax his face. Okay, The point is. The point is why you need five blades going back to Gillette? No, you need one blade. All right? Yeah.

Speaker1: [00:54:25] Everything you've just said is incorrect.

Speaker3: [00:54:27] I don't know if you're a real man. Are you talking about African throwing knives? He shaves with African throwing. Everyone. He may sound prejudice, but he's not.

Speaker2: [00:54:34] So here's the thing with Dirty Harry, by the way, they had four sequels. These films, Death Wish, Dirty Harry and Dirty Harry. If you go back and you watch it, it was about a cop. It was a it was a direct response to the market. They're going, hey, Americans don't like what we're selling. Americans want a strong a strong character. Americans want a strong lead. Americans now are actually pleading for the rule of law. And so you had a character who basically told the police system he faced this sort of, you know, I guess you would say it's like these these hapless chiefs, right? They always come.

Speaker1: [00:54:59] Like, who told you you could do that? Callahan Like I do. I play by my own rules. So he was the one.

Speaker2: [00:55:05] Who would take matters into his own hands because people felt helpless.

Speaker16: [00:55:10] What? Where the hell does it say? You've got a right to kick down doors. Torture suspects deny medical attention and legal counsel. Where have you been? Yeah. Does Escobedo ring a bell? Miranda? I mean, you must have heard of the Fourth Amendment. Nope. What I'm saying is that man had rights.

Speaker15: [00:55:33] Well, I'm all broken up about that man's rights.

Speaker1: [00:55:37] You should be.

Speaker3: [00:55:37] Nobody said less in movies. Nobody said Harrison Ford movies. Yeah, maybe Harrison.

Speaker2: [00:55:42] Ford just points.

Speaker3: [00:55:43] But God, I mean, talk about a movie star. All I had to do was smolder. Yeah. Just look like he has a bad headache all the time.

Speaker1: [00:55:49] I remember in that film, he says, Look, next time you get a perp, Callahan, you bring him in for questioning. That's our policy. He goes.

Speaker2: [00:55:55] Yeah, well.

Speaker4: [00:55:56] If I see a man with the intent to.

Speaker1: [00:55:58] Commit rape.

Speaker2: [00:55:59] I shoot.

Speaker3: [00:55:59] The bastard. No, he said, if I policy if he said if I see a man with a it says.

Speaker2: [00:56:03] He's a rape.

Speaker1: [00:56:04] He goes, How did you figure that out? Callahan? If I see a naked man chasing.

Speaker2: [00:56:08] A lady down an alleyway.

Speaker1: [00:56:10] With an erection and a butcher knife.

Speaker2: [00:56:12] I figure he's not collecting for the Red Cross.

Speaker4: [00:56:16] There it.

Speaker3: [00:56:16] Is. I love that you think?

Speaker1: [00:56:18] Well, why don't you bend me over this bench here, Callahan not deserve it.

Speaker3: [00:56:21] Well, Daddy here's old enough to have been in the movie theater when that came out. And I can remember when people clapped. Oh, yeah? Did you refer to.

Speaker4: [00:56:31] Yourself as Daddy?

Speaker3: [00:56:32] Well, that's what that's what the people call me. Yeah, that's what the people around the office.

Speaker2: [00:56:35] He's the people's daddy around the office.

Speaker1: [00:56:37] Give yourself nicknames, remember? And he just by the.

Speaker2: [00:56:39] Way, he punched a black hooker at one of those films. I did. And it was incidental contact.

Speaker1: [00:56:43] She wasn't even. He was just like a whore.

Speaker3: [00:56:45] Yeah, I covered my eyes for that part. That's the part I covered my eyes for. No, no.

Speaker2: [00:56:49] She was trying to stab him. She was trying to stab him, but he just punched her in the face.

Speaker1: [00:56:52] He didn't care. Really? Yeah, because people were going like. Yeah, it was an African-American hooker. Tried to stab him, so he punched her in the face.

Speaker3: [00:56:57] But does he know her childhood and her background? Exactly. I'm saying, guys. Yes, Daddy saying, oh, boy. Yeah.

Speaker2: [00:57:04] No, but people were cheering that same thing, by the way, with Death Wish. So Death Wish, by the way, is even more telling. It was about a formerly liberal citizen who was anti-gun. He declined a gun that a friend gave him.

Speaker1: [00:57:15] Remember, he was anti firearm. And then his.

Speaker2: [00:57:17] Wife gets horribly raped by an incredibly vulgar and very thin young Jeff Goldblum. If you don't remember, I didn't.

Speaker3: [00:57:23] Was he the one who did it?

Speaker2: [00:57:24] Yeah, he was one of the gang rapists.

Speaker3: [00:57:26] A tall, thin Jewish guy.

Speaker2: [00:57:27] Yeah. You know what? Someone can bring up that clip because they dropped the C bomb in the clip, which is. But it's. But it's a young Jeff Goldblum. You probably wouldn't recognize it. I mean, he is a beanpole. So here's the thing. Then he turns down the gun, his wife gets murdered and his daughter gets raped and she gets put into a coma. And so then this man, he's not. He's actually. Not even a police officer. We're one step further. He now represents the citizen, right? Dirty Harry was a proof of product. And they said, you know what? Hey, hold on a second. Citizens now feel helpless. He was a citizen who went around killing the thugs that the police refused to engage. Again, on the heels of skyrocketing crime rates, these became the cultural heroes, not Jimi Hendrix. This is the.

Speaker13: [00:58:04] Americans. How's my life?

Speaker17: [00:58:06] I'm sorry. She died a few minutes ago. Mr. Kersey. Steve Odenkirk.

Speaker15: [00:58:11] Any chance of catching these men?

Speaker13: [00:58:14] There's a chance. Sure.

Speaker15: [00:58:16] Just a chance.

Speaker13: [00:58:17] I'd be less than honest if I gave you more hope, Mr. Kersey.

Speaker2: [00:58:20] Yeah. Wow. Were you about to say something before that?

Speaker3: [00:58:23] Just a character arc. It's the American character arc. Yeah. Like, I mean, I'm being serious. It's sort of this meta arc that all of us are going through. This is what happens to Americans. And ultimately the American voter is you just go, this doesn't make sense. The news is telling me a story that I don't see when I live my day to day life. That's the biggest disconnect. The news seems to be pushing a story, a fictional narrative that bears no relevance to the actual. And that's by design life.

Speaker2: [00:58:51] That's by design. For the same reason. The indictment, the arraignment. They want the right to get violent so that they can say, look at this. That's why they try and say that January 6th was like nine over 11 to write the sequel. They want everyone to believe that you are extremists. Right? And they keep they keep implementing policies where you are less safe. And by the.

Speaker1: [00:59:09] Way, not only do they implement policies.

Speaker2: [00:59:11] In these major cities where you are significantly less safe, meaning you're more likely to be raped, you're more likely to be robbed, you're more likely to be murdered. But then they try and punish you for moving out of the cities and they try and encourage you and force you to live in big cities through programs like public transportation, right. Through taxes that they might put on you on a vehicle, carbon taxes. So you're.

Speaker1: [00:59:28] Rewarded if you're dependent.

Speaker2: [00:59:30] On the government and living in a big city.

Speaker1: [00:59:32] Come to San Francisco. Come to New York, come to Detroit. You want to go out there and there's a freeway. Well, you know what? There are going to be more tools. Oh, wait, hold on a second. You want to. Well, there's going to be.

Speaker2: [00:59:40] There's going to be a carbon tax. So they want you dependent on these big cities and you are like lambs to the slaughter and Americans are tired of it. Let me give you some numbers here. You saw the rise in crime.

Speaker1: [00:59:50] You'd say, oh, Dirty Harry's maybe more niche. No more niche is the crappy.

Speaker2: [00:59:54] Experimental hippie music that you listen to, that you try and act. You try and act as though it was mainstream. Dirty Harry grows $36 million in 1971. That's over $267 million today. Wow. Not in the Marvel verse, just to be clear. Deathwish 22 million. That's $134 million today in $1,974. Here's the.

Speaker1: [01:00:14] Thing. These were not huge budget films either, and the sequels did even better. Not all the.

Speaker2: [01:00:19] Deathwish sequels, some of them are pretty bad. It gets to the point where it's like he's following them to Poughkeepsie and someone.

Speaker1: [01:00:23] Like didn't tip well but blows them away. Like they're really it ends up being like.

Speaker2: [01:00:29] He's looking for crimes. Yeah, yeah. Like, yeah it's the first one started.

Speaker1: [01:00:33] Okay. Your wife is killed, your daughter is raped.

Speaker2: [01:00:35] We get it. Then all of a sudden he shows up in Miami and he's like, Hey.

Speaker1: [01:00:38] It looks to me like you didn't tip the bellhop. What?

Speaker3: [01:00:41] And these kids are dancing too close. Yes.

Speaker1: [01:00:44] Yes, exactly. I can't have this. Looks to me like you're not quite a yardstick.

Speaker3: [01:00:49] Yeah. Here's a little long.

Speaker1: [01:00:50] That kid walks into a date. He's like, Hey, both feet on the ground. When you're in the bed with the lady.

Speaker3: [01:00:58] Keep that door ajar. I'm chaperone. Yes. I got one hand on my gun and the other hand on my gun.

Speaker1: [01:01:05] That's right. Puke sexual. I like the pink.

Speaker4: [01:01:09] All right, so I think we do have. Is it the Jeff Goldblum clip that we have you want to watch? Well, hold on a second a second.

Speaker2: [01:01:14] Because people might just shut off when they see it. It's really rough. And warning if you have kids. Yeah.

Speaker3: [01:01:18] Oh, wow. Yeah. By the way, Jeff Goldblum, every bit of six, five, six. He's a very tall guy. Tall guy, big man.

Speaker2: [01:01:23] So let's compare this to today. You saw this, right? So again, let me give you those numbers. Murders 60 to 70 or sorry, violent crime up 126%, up 64% from 1970 to 1980. Okay. So you're looking at two different decades there. And we just talked about the anti-heroes. We talked about the album's what Americans actually wanted. Well, right now, from 2019 to 2020, that's only we're only talking about one year, not a decade. Murders increased 28%. Okay. Violent crime is up dramatically depending on your city. And what do we see? Films like John Wick, films like. Like Maverick are popular. What was nobody. I'm trying to remember. Nobody. Oh, that's right. Nobody was. Odenkirk Same thing. Oh, is that Stevens, Bob? Bob Odenkirk Steve Odenkirk Did Kung POW enter the Fist? That's right. Bob Odenkirk So this is something you're seeing the parallel now. Now the challenge that you run into is at least back then there was some kind of responsiveness to the American consumer through media, but now it's responsiveness to, for example, into the 80 seconds you had Red Dawn. This is actually a perfect kind of a B great movie, right? It was about the communist Russians.

Speaker3: [01:02:22] The Russians came to America.

Speaker2: [01:02:24] It was a time where then they could say, well, you know what? Even though most of us here in Hollywood are communists, we know that Americans hate communists. So let's have them do Red Dawn, right? Wolverines forever. Okay. Now, today, Red Dawn had to be remade and they had to switch the Chinese flag. You know, the largest communist nation that exists.

Speaker1: [01:02:39] To.

Speaker2: [01:02:40] The Korean flags because they didn't want to offend that market. Don't know if the Chinese Communist Party are big fans of Red Dawn to begin with. Maybe they're Swazi fans. I don't know. But this is the change now is they're not responding to you. They're responding to external forces. They're not responding to.

Speaker1: [01:02:54] You, the voters. They're responding to criminals. They're not responding to you, the American viewer. They're responding to China. They're responding to two European nations that, by the way, have already since abandoned their.

Speaker2: [01:03:03] Their Western civilized values a long time ago. So but they're.

Speaker3: [01:03:07] Also responding to an ideology. It's not just a marketplace. No, it's not. If it was about money, I could. That's an enemy I can fight. This is also an ideology. Yes. Right. It's a religion. Yes.

Speaker2: [01:03:20] When you add it all up, the ESG, when you add up the fact that they don't even acknowledge Taiwan. Right. With the NBA, how can you be.

Speaker1: [01:03:25] This wrong.

Speaker2: [01:03:26] All the time?

Speaker1: [01:03:28] And then when a little ray of sunshine pokes through.

Speaker2: [01:03:31] Like maverick, look.

Speaker1: [01:03:32] It doesn't take a rocket scientist.

Speaker2: [01:03:33] To find out Maverick.

Speaker1: [01:03:34] Was relatively apolitical and people got to root for the United States of America.

Speaker2: [01:03:38] Got to feel proud to be American again.

Speaker1: [01:03:39] John Wick It's not necessarily political, but.

Speaker2: [01:03:42] It is about a guy who kills bad.

Speaker1: [01:03:44] Guys. They killed his puppy and now you have four three hour films later where we still love watching him snuff the bad guys. You don't kill the puppy. It's the first rule. You don't kill the dog. But this is where we are now. And you have an.

Speaker2: [01:03:56] Entire group of people at the.

Speaker1: [01:03:57] Top who not only don't understand it, we were asking this earlier. This is a they do understand it.

Speaker2: [01:04:02] They do understand it.

Speaker1: [01:04:03] And they're acting this way in spite of it. So here's my question and this is this is why what you can do is.

Speaker2: [01:04:08] Relevant if you have children, just like a lot of the boomers. I'm sorry, guys, I know you get get a lot of.

Speaker1: [01:04:13] Flak, but the one.

Speaker2: [01:04:14] Thing that.

Speaker1: [01:04:14] Bothers me most about you is not the entitlement.

Speaker2: [01:04:17] Programs hitting us with the bill. I get it. But it really is in not communicating to your kids. No, this is what the 60 seconds and 70 seconds were actually like. This is why the pendulum swung the other way. If that story is if it's not a matter of record, then the media and Hollywood will act like it didn't exist.

Speaker1: [01:04:32] So let's look at this period right now, where we're living in today. Fast forward 20, 30 years.

Speaker2: [01:04:37] Our kids in school are going to be learning that in the year 2020.

Speaker1: [01:04:40] 20, 22, 2023, that time should be remembered like this.

Speaker15: [01:04:44] To act the right way. Not cool. Not cool.

Speaker11: [01:04:48] We can do it. I know we can. I've long talked about the battle for the soul of America. We must restore the soul of America.

[01:04:59] In our indignation and turn it into energy. I.

Speaker2: [01:05:17] So is that how your kids are going to remember what happened right now, or are they going to understand that that was a small minority of people and of course, those in power who were the strong arm enforcing it. Or are they going to know the truth that most Americans today at this point in history were concerned.

Speaker1: [01:05:32] About the.

Speaker2: [01:05:32] Country looking like this?

Speaker8: [01:05:34] Police started using some of those crowd.

Speaker11: [01:05:36] Dispersal.

Speaker8: [01:05:36] Tactics like tear gas, even playing.

Speaker3: [01:05:39] Very loud sounds to push them out.

Speaker11: [01:05:42] Gerald says the.

Speaker4: [01:05:43] Teenager who.

Speaker15: [01:05:43] Took onto the streets as a self-styled protector. This was the moment his efforts ended in the deaths of two people. The 17 year old social media postings show him to be a Donald Trump supporter.

Speaker8: [01:05:55] This surveillance footage shows a 71 year old Asian grandmother violently shoved to the ground her purse stolen. A 91 year old man pushed in Oakland's Chinatown, one of three attacks that day. 84 year old Thai-american Vicha Ratanapakdee knocked over while out for a walk. He died a few days later from his injuries. Yeah.

Speaker1: [01:06:17] Let's be sympathetic.

Speaker2: [01:06:17] To the criminal. I'm sure that was just over an accounting error. Let's. Right. This is something that. And you have the same thing happening in the 60 seconds and 70 seconds. They would silence you as, oh, you were a that's what they used back then.

Speaker1: [01:06:27] You were a fascist. That's why they try. And it's the you know what we're dealing with today. San Francisco.

Speaker2: [01:06:31] Retreads fascist.

Speaker1: [01:06:32] When that doesn't work, racist that doesn't work, homophobic when that doesn't really work transphobic.

Speaker2: [01:06:37] So they try and silence you while you live surrounded by death, while you live in an economy that cannot recover if the left has their way. It's not about what is happening right now as both.

Speaker1: [01:06:47] The left and the right jockey for position. What would happen if the left had their way entirely?

Speaker2: [01:06:52] Well, we know what would happen if you did, because.

Speaker1: [01:06:55] The.

Speaker2: [01:06:56] Rare instances where we see you voting with your dollar, all we see John Wick, all we see Maverick, if you look, you see what you guys do with this show and migrating from YouTube to Rumble and Don Lemon's rating, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, you see the transition with the vast majority of Americans. But here's the deal. It's not a matter of public record. It is a clinical level of gaslighting. You have to make sure that every generation hereafter knows that there is an action and an equal and opposite reaction, just like Dirty Harry, just like Deathwish. What we saw in the 60 seconds and 70 seconds and I'm not by the way, I'm not saying go out and kill someone with a sock and a roll of quarters. What I am saying is you need to make sure that people don't think, oh, yeah, back in the year.

Speaker1: [01:07:38] In the 2020s. Yeah, that's.

Speaker2: [01:07:39] Right. That's when everyone in the country was on board with Black Lives Matter.

Speaker1: [01:07:42] That's one of the most popular president ever. Joe Biden was elected, right? And yeah, that's right.

Speaker2: [01:07:45] That's when that's.

Speaker1: [01:07:46] When everyone really finally.

Speaker2: [01:07:49] Realized that kids should cut off. Should be castrated. No, no, no, no. You need to say no, no, no, no. That's that's actually that was a very, very small percentage of people and we were furious with it. There needs to be a matter of public record, and that's what we are doing here.

Speaker1: [01:08:02] That's what, you know what?

Speaker2: [01:08:03] We'll bring up the Jeff Goldblum thing a little bit. Brian Callen, Brian.

Speaker1: [01:08:07] Callan, dot com.

Speaker2: [01:08:07] We're still going to continue, by the way. It's just I'm excited. It's just that right now. Yeah. But I don't even know if you can make today. I don't think you could. A movie like Deathwish. No not I think there's.

Speaker3: [01:08:17] Going to be a market for it. Well, not.

Speaker2: [01:08:19] Too long ago we actually got the rights and we tried to make a progressive deathwish. This was about five years ago. And I should spoiler alert, every major production house turned it down, but we put it together.

Speaker1: [01:08:37] Enjoy a typical.

Speaker4: [01:08:38] Night in New York.

Speaker1: [01:08:39] City. This is Pauline.

Speaker4: [01:08:42] Kersey.

Speaker3: [01:08:43] This is the story of a person who decided.

Speaker12: [01:08:45] To clean up.

Speaker4: [01:08:46] The most bigoted city in the world.

Speaker14: [01:08:48] I bet you think you're some kind of tough guy, huh? A real big man. Yeah. Bitch. Too bad that's just a social construct. False archetype perpetuated by Western civilization. Man.

Speaker1: [01:09:04] Can you believe we're all the LGBT activists? Stop.

Speaker2: [01:09:08] His work begins.

Speaker14: [01:09:10] Hey, you scum. Did you get yourself in that healthcare exchange? Yes. You're going to need it. Some call him a hate crime vigilante.

Speaker3: [01:09:24] Some call him a hero.

Speaker2: [01:09:26] Some call him Z.

Speaker14: [01:09:29] Hey, you white privileged puke Z, You know that. Any way to treat a tranny?

Speaker13: [01:09:36] What are you going to do about it? Ass.

Speaker14: [01:09:38] You know the best part of my friend here, Mr. Walter, When it comes to targets, he's gender neutral.

Speaker3: [01:09:52] Death wish 14, The reassignment.

Speaker1: [01:09:57] Paramount turned it down, even with Bryan Callen attached.

Speaker2: [01:10:00] I don't know what happened. It's amazing. But this is the time where if we were on YouTube, of course, we would tell them to piss off. And this would be only on Mod Club, by the way, tomorrow. It's only available on Mudd Club. You can't see it on Rumble, but it is still free for the remainder of the week. Loudmouth Credit.com slash Mudd Club. We do a Friday show 10 a.m. and right now it's kind of a mix. It's a mixed bag so that you guys can determine what the Friday show looks like. Nick DiPaolo April 10th starts on the network. There's a lot there's a lot for us to look forward to. And of course, we have chat Thursday. So this is where I would say share all of this and YouTube, piss off. We're just going to keep it short because you get to watch it for free.

Speaker1: [01:10:33] Anyway right now because we're not on YouTube. So thank you, Rumble. And this is like this is like this is this.

Speaker2: [01:10:37] Is just sort of, you know, it's a placeholder.

Speaker1: [01:10:41] All right. There we go. There we go. But I don't have enough time to pee is a problem.

Speaker4: [01:10:44] Oh, I need to run that for like, a minute.

Speaker2: [01:10:47] What else was I going to say? Oh, did.

Speaker1: [01:10:48] Jeff Goldblum thing.

Speaker2: [01:10:49] That's what we were waiting on, right? Yes. I'm just I remember this clip being really rough. It's not the really rough, like, actual raping clip, is it?

Speaker3: [01:10:55] No, no. I know that. You don't sound too confident. It's like.

Speaker4: [01:10:57] I know it's rough in the vulgar language way. You don't see any actual raping.

Speaker2: [01:11:01] Okay, well.

Speaker1: [01:11:01] Let's just see.

Speaker2: [01:11:02] This is young Jeff Goldblum.

Speaker3: [01:11:04] Someone had their butt spray painted in one of the movies. That's all I remember. Good. I've never gotten over that. Do you know that? Yes, I do remember that. I'm just saying, I do remember that.

Speaker1: [01:11:11] I think it was like it was like.

Speaker3: [01:11:12] Stick in my head.

Speaker2: [01:11:13] It was like in a in an empty house kind of thing. That's right.

Speaker3: [01:11:16] I call it tagging the butt. Yeah, exactly. Exactly.

Speaker2: [01:11:18] And the the best part about it is that when you tag one butt and they they can figure out every single other person you've sexually assaulted.

Speaker3: [01:11:25] That's exactly right. Because it's called leaving your mark.

Speaker1: [01:11:28] Yes, exactly.

Speaker2: [01:11:29] Leaving your mark. And you'll never get out of prison.

Speaker3: [01:11:32] That's right.

Speaker2: [01:11:33] But I guess that's what you want if you're the infamous butt tagger.

Speaker3: [01:11:35] It was done with red paint.

Speaker2: [01:11:36] Yeah, I do remember that.

Speaker1: [01:11:38] I think it's. I think it's the same one where he said, Do you.

Speaker2: [01:11:40] Believe in Jesus?

Speaker1: [01:11:42] You're going to meet him.

Speaker4: [01:11:43] Yeah, that's.

Speaker2: [01:11:43] Good.

Speaker1: [01:11:44] That's good. Why would you answer? Like, here's the thing. If someone asks you one of those.

Speaker2: [01:11:46] Lines, okay, if someone shows up who's a vigilante in real life and they ask you and you're like, Just don't answer it, Buy yourself some time. In other words, if he says, Hey.

Speaker1: [01:11:54] Do you believe in Jesus? You go like, Oh, hold on, I'm on a call.

Speaker2: [01:11:56] And you're like, okay, what do I and, you know, do something. Don't be like, Yeah.

Speaker1: [01:11:59] Yes, yeah.

Speaker2: [01:12:00] Yeah. Because now he's got his tag ready.

Speaker3: [01:12:02] There was that hitman, that mafia.

Speaker4: [01:12:05] You pretend you're dead without his tag. Yeah.

Speaker1: [01:12:08] Why Give him the satisfaction.

Speaker3: [01:12:09] It's so true. There was. There was that mafia hitman. The guy was praying he was going to shoot him. The guy was praying. I think it was that guy Kuklinski or whatever. And the guy was, you know, and he goes, You believe in Jesus? And the guy goes, Yeah. And he goes, All right, I'll give you a half hour. Let's see if Jesus saves you. And he went away and came back and goes, Didn't save you shot him. And when they interviewed him, why was the guy still there? Well, he said, well, because he was he had him like tied up or something. And he said he came back and he said when they when they interviewed him, he said, I shouldn't have done that. I feel a little bad about that. That that was a little excessive. Yeah. You know, you don't like one thing.

Speaker1: [01:12:43] With a mouse, one thing when you're a murderer, you don't talk religion and.

Speaker3: [01:12:46] Politics. That's what it is. Yeah. Don't get him to pray and call on Jesus. Yeah, You.

Speaker1: [01:12:52] Know, I felt bad, but, you know, I mean, I still shot him.

Speaker4: [01:12:55] I mean, that's my job, so I still shot him.

Speaker2: [01:12:59] What if he just said, like, what you should just say because it's a mobster. He's probably Italian. So the better answer would have been like, Hey, do you believe in Jesus? You're like, No, tell me about him. That's exactly right. That's good. Yeah, that's good.

Speaker1: [01:13:10] Yeah, yeah. Like, I don't know.

Speaker2: [01:13:12] No, you just say, like, I'm on the fence.

Speaker3: [01:13:14] So how old.

Speaker4: [01:13:14] Is the earth? Just going, like, exactly. Random topics about Christianity.

Speaker1: [01:13:18] Do you believe in dinosaurs? Hey, what are you? Smart? But I see no reason that they couldn't have coexisted across parallel timelines. That's a myth if you're a Christian. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. None of your tricks and tricks.

Speaker3: [01:13:32] Hit me up and knots.

Speaker4: [01:13:33] What are we talking about?

Speaker1: [01:13:36] The philosophical.

Speaker2: [01:13:37] Mob hitman.

Speaker4: [01:13:38] How were you saved? I don't know. The guy that killed me gave me a minute and told me about Jesus. Yeah, You just confused him.

Speaker2: [01:13:42] With a riddle. Yeah.

Speaker1: [01:13:43] So do you believe in Jesus? Hey, wait a second.

Speaker3: [01:13:46] The man of the God.

Speaker2: [01:13:47] If a if a plane crashes in the middle of the border of.

Speaker1: [01:13:50] Canada and the United States right in the middle. Right? Hey, don't. I'm just saying, if it lands right, where do they bury the survivors? Well, they would bury them in Canada. No, wait. The United States. Wait. What's going on here? I don't know.

Speaker4: [01:14:05] I need a minute.

Speaker2: [01:14:06] Sit down.

Speaker1: [01:14:07] This up.

Speaker4: [01:14:07] You're pretty smart.

Speaker1: [01:14:08] And by the time he says, Wait, they don't bury survivors, Where did where did he go? Well, the event.

Speaker4: [01:14:16] Him. Every time.

Speaker3: [01:14:37] You know what? I believe him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe that he does. When? You know, when an actor.

Speaker2: [01:14:42] Who else is he going to kill? He's like a he's like a stick bug.

Speaker2: [01:15:30] Which is what I would also know. Pee pee. Oh, no. Come on, guys. Which is what I would. Which is what I would say. If someone were trying to kill me, I'd be like, Wait, wait, wait, wait. I have to potty. You know that if you kill me. Yeah, if you kill me, that I evacuate everything. And so wouldn't you rather be like, Hey, no tricks? But yeah, I.

Speaker1: [01:15:45] Appreciate you being cordial. Go use the restroom.

Speaker2: [01:15:48] And he would untie me and I'd be like, Thank you. And I would, you know, I would act like I'm his friend. Yeah, you know what I do. But then I would. I would run.

Speaker3: [01:15:54] I'd throw your diapers.

Speaker2: [01:15:55] Would you? Yeah.

Speaker3: [01:15:56] Oh, do it in there.

Speaker6: [01:16:33] Oh, boy. From Jake at 720. Question for Gerald. Just to annoy Steven. Okay. What are your thoughts on how well Notre Dame is going to do this?

Speaker3: [01:16:40] Oh, first of all, it's pronounced Notre Dame.

Speaker4: [01:16:42] Notre Dame. I think Notre Dame is going to do quite well. I don't know. I mean, we've got a tough schedule this year. He doesn't care anything about this. Brian, do you follow college?

Speaker3: [01:16:51] Is Rocket Ishmael still playing?

Speaker4: [01:16:53] He's not okay. Hasn't been for a long time. But he made a lot of money in the Canadian Football League when they tried to buy some of the best players. That didn't work out too well. I know. Know Notre Dame. Thank you. I appreciate that.

Speaker3: [01:17:06] Notre Dame, ladies and gentlemen, they're.

Speaker4: [01:17:07] Going to do just fine. Next chat.

Speaker6: [01:17:16] All right. From Gerald's gay lover. Oh, boy. It's my birthday. Can the team wish me a happy birthday by calling Gerald gay? No.

Speaker3: [01:17:24] No. Well, why don't we just show you how gay he is? Gerald, get over here. No. Sit on my lap and let my hands roam.

Speaker4: [01:17:30] You said post-show.

Speaker3: [01:17:31] He's going to try not to smile. Not at.

Speaker4: [01:17:33] All. Not happening. Why do you pick these kinds of chats for me? Who picked these? Me. Some substantive chats. Yeah. Any hole will do. Well, this one, actually.

Speaker6: [01:17:41] This gay stuff from Captain Explorer. What is your favorite old school video game, Gerald?

Speaker4: [01:17:46] Oh, old school video game, I think probably. I don't know what counts as old school for most people. Right. Hide the.

Speaker6: [01:17:53] Sausage. Super Nintendo.

Speaker4: [01:17:54] Goldeneye was awesome. But Street Fighter two on Super Nintendo. I played that like a champ, like all the time. I couldn't afford to go to the arcade, but my cousin had the Super Nintendo and so I would play it over there. I loved Street Fighter two on Super Nintendo and Steven and I've actually played. I don't cheat at all. He just loses. And he goes, Are you cheat button masher I'm not a button mash button masher masher.

Speaker1: [01:18:16] A nutless monkey could play like you play.

Speaker4: [01:18:18] I have button masher, by the way, time out. If Steven feels like I'm a button masher, I would be happy to record me playing you and record my hands. Oh, you would. Domination.

Speaker3: [01:18:29] You would. Hey, can somebody keep saying button masher? Yeah, exactly. Get my hand on.

Speaker4: [01:18:33] Your Wang Fu guy or whoever. Hey, hold on a second.

Speaker1: [01:18:36] Wait, Tool Man, did we get.

Speaker2: [01:18:37] Because this arcade machine, we have a key down there. Did you find it? I we need a key to open it up so we can turn the volume up.

Speaker3: [01:18:43] Yeah, Mash that mash.

Speaker2: [01:18:45] That custom arcade that we have there. And it was supposed to be on top of it, but we lost it.

Speaker4: [01:18:49] It was for a while. Yeah.

Speaker6: [01:18:50] I didn't realize the keys no longer in there. Okay. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker1: [01:18:52] We'll look for it.

Speaker2: [01:18:53] Cause someone was asking me the other day, there's like 500 video games on there and. Oh, and it's awesome. Really? Yeah. Yeah. It's. I don't know how they do it. I'm sure it's not like I.

Speaker4: [01:18:59] Played Mario World two. Did you play Mario at all or was it just all stuff? There's Mario on there. No, no, no, no, no. And they said like old school video. Oh, I missed a chat.

Speaker2: [01:19:07] Yeah. What's your favorite old school video game? Yeah, Super Street Fighter two Donkey Kong country is up there for me.

Speaker4: [01:19:11] Super Street Fighter two Nice. Yeah. So not the original.

Speaker2: [01:19:14] Super Street Fighter two has more characters.

Speaker1: [01:19:16] More characters.

Speaker2: [01:19:16] But I draw the line at Super Street Fighter two Turbo.

Speaker4: [01:19:19] The Turbo Turbo actually.

Speaker2: [01:19:20] Fun. I don't like the turbo.

Speaker4: [01:19:21] There was a glitch in the arcade system where you could do the uppercuts and yes, you would.

Speaker1: [01:19:24] Know how to cheat it. This is what I'm saying.

Speaker2: [01:19:26] He knows all the cheats.

Speaker1: [01:19:27] He's the kind of guy who'd play against you.

Speaker2: [01:19:28] Use the game, genie.

Speaker4: [01:19:30] All you would have to do.

Speaker3: [01:19:30] There's no there's no cheating in street fighting. You can mash someone's button or you can. I mean, especially what I say. Yes.

Speaker2: [01:19:38] Well. Oh, you're talking about the actual street fighting. Yes. Oh, yeah. I was talking.

Speaker3: [01:19:41] About real street fighting.

Speaker4: [01:19:42] Killer instinct.

Speaker2: [01:19:42] Was also. I play by street rules.

Speaker3: [01:19:44] Oh, yeah. Well, you know, I got a great combo. I have a great karate story. Not for here, though. If you guys aren't going to take me seriously, then we won't, okay? It's going to teach you some safety tips, but whatever that isn't.

Speaker4: [01:20:01] Safety tips.

Speaker1: [01:20:02] From your blade back.

Speaker3: [01:20:05] Right here, baby.

Speaker2: [01:20:06] I mean, just. There's no way to do it unless you would have a neck guard. Like you would have to be dressed like hell raiser.

Speaker3: [01:20:11] You I carry Well, so when I'm killing, I carry diapers, wipes and a neck guard. Yeah, yeah. The neck guard. I said neck guard.

Speaker2: [01:20:17] Yeah, neck guard. I have to be like. It would have to be like a leather neck. Well, actually, you know what? We showed that we did a video of that. You know where they call. Call them Leatherneck. The Marines is because of the I believe it was the rapier swords from Muslim pirates. What's Yes, the rapier rape.

Speaker3: [01:20:31] Rapier rapier.

Speaker2: [01:20:32] Swords. You got you're just grow up you're the one.

Speaker1: [01:20:34] You two you two would make fine.

Speaker2: [01:20:36] Adults fine.

Speaker3: [01:20:37] Button mashing and rapier. Yeah.

Speaker2: [01:20:39] But but because of the rape the Muslim pirates and they would specifically go to Decap so they put on this thick leather like it's stiff leather. It's not what you think of as soft leather. That's where Leatherneck comes from. It was specifically to protect. It was actually David Barton. Remember, we went there and he showed me these historical artifacts to protect against Islamic pirates because they've been doing it for a long time, even pre Captain Phillips That's why.

Speaker3: [01:20:59] Does it work? So it works against a rapier. Does it work against a machete? I have no idea, sir. That's Spanish for I don't know.

Speaker2: [01:21:04] I don't know if I don't know if it's Trejo proof.

Speaker4: [01:21:07] But speaking speaking of kind of somewhat gay things, can I really quickly, I just wanted to mention this. This ties back into that segment we were talking about in France right now, the protesting. There's mostly peaceful protests with fires and a lot of stuff going on at BlackRock as well. So this is the kind of stuff that you will see. Is there a clip you're covering? I think we have a clip that we can show really quickly.

Speaker2: [01:21:25] Yeah, This is in France right now.

Speaker4: [01:21:26] That's in France.

Speaker1: [01:21:27] Oh, my gosh. There's been that much fire in the streets since Joan of Arc. Am I right? That was good to say.

Speaker2: [01:21:32] Good, good. Kobokan.

Speaker4: [01:21:34] More like.

Speaker2: [01:21:35] Champagne. More like.

Speaker1: [01:21:36] Joan of.

Speaker3: [01:21:36] Vanguard. Joan of Arc. The first transgender warrior.

Speaker2: [01:21:39] Yes, exactly.

Speaker1: [01:21:41] That's right. Do you think do you think.

Speaker2: [01:21:43] That when you get burned alive, do you think it just singes all your nerves where it only hurts? Or do you think you feel it all the way through?

Speaker3: [01:21:48] I think well, she probably felt it in her dick first. Right, guys? Huh? Huh. No, I apparently the truth is, when you got burned at the stake, if you were extra naughty, they would. They would fan the smoke so you wouldn't pass out, right? So you felt just the fire so that you fanned the smoke so that the flames are actually what get to you and. Oh, and I think it hurts like fuck. I don't think there's any. In other words, when you're burning at the stake, you know how it can always get worse. Yeah. That's the only time when you're on fire is the only time it can't get worse.

Speaker1: [01:22:22] Well, except unless.

Speaker2: [01:22:22] This were like a sitcom. You'd be like, you're like, you know, there's the sound of flames like this. Can't. Oh, how could this get any worse? And then it starts raining, and you're like, Perfect, perfect.

Speaker3: [01:22:31] Perfect. It's hot as hell in here. We got.

Speaker4: [01:22:34] To relight. Perfect. Now I'm in a.

Speaker1: [01:22:35] I'm burnt, I'm wet and being burned alive.

Speaker4: [01:22:38] Have you seen the stones, though, where they would actually put you like, you know, I think it was the Protestants killing the Catholics are bad where they would actually put you on like.

Speaker1: [01:22:46] The Catholics they got theirs into. Well, they.

Speaker4: [01:22:48] Would lay you on. They would lay you on this one mat that had like these pegs that would go up into your back, not like the peg you were talking about. Right? And then they would put another one on top and they would just increasingly move the weight up until it just penetrated your body and you died. Yeah, like there were really cruel. They would also.

Speaker1: [01:23:03] Do the wheel where they would.

Speaker3: [01:23:04] Yeah. The best is when you're sat they sit you on a pole so they'll set you on a.

Speaker2: [01:23:09] Sharp.

Speaker3: [01:23:09] Triangle.

Speaker2: [01:23:10] What are your fantasies have to do with this, huh? What?

Speaker3: [01:23:13] Somebody say mashed my button again? Say, I've.

Speaker1: [01:23:15] Been around Nick DePaula.

Speaker2: [01:23:16] Too long this week.

Speaker3: [01:23:17] But mashing I know.

Speaker1: [01:23:18] Everything is.

Speaker2: [01:23:19] It's just a slight burn.

Speaker3: [01:23:21] It's a seething. He turns everybody into a power bottom. Everybody? Everybody.

Speaker2: [01:23:24] Yeah. The funny nick is really nice, but. So they're protesting their vanguard. Blackrock. So in France, they're finally growing a vanguard.

Speaker4: [01:23:31] Just a BlackRock. They're actually BlackRock, the BlackRock headquarters in some of the videos there.

Speaker2: [01:23:34] What's the reason for the from what I understood today is they're.

Speaker4: [01:23:37] Mad it's pensions.

Speaker1: [01:23:38] Oh so not.

Speaker2: [01:23:39] Exactly so yeah.

Speaker4: [01:23:40] So they can't I believe they moved the what is it age of retirement back so you can collect the pension but they moved it back two years. Yeah. That's like the.

Speaker2: [01:23:46] Greeks. They're like.

Speaker4: [01:23:47] Like.

Speaker1: [01:23:48] No, we're not going to. We're not going to retire at 54. Yeah. No, come on. Our pensions kicks in at 42.

Speaker6: [01:23:54] Yeah. They moved it from 62 to 64.

Speaker2: [01:23:56] Oh, what a nightmare.

Speaker1: [01:23:57] The French will have to work.

Speaker3: [01:23:58] The big The contentious thing is they're taking your pension plans now and applying ESG to them. So you're. That's where I draw the line. I want my money. It's not.

Speaker4: [01:24:07] Even that. It's just you have you have these terrible policies that the state is going to provide for its citizens and it never works out. And it's just every single time we look at a country we like, yeah, it doesn't work out. Don't have the money.

Speaker2: [01:24:18] Sorry. No, you're absolutely right. And by the way, this is something, too, we did. We talked about Social Security. It is a definition of a Ponzi scheme, except for the fact that the SEC says that it's not. When you look at the retirees per workers, I don't remember if it was it was 30 something or 16 workers per retiree. And now it's like one, two, three. By the way, something else to the little trick they pull on you. Yeah. When you go to a Chinese restaurant and you order no ESG, they still put it in.

Speaker6: [01:24:39] Next chat from Hobby 1994. Question for the crew. If you won the presidency, who would you be your VP and what would be your goals for your first 100 days in office?

Speaker2: [01:24:49] Joe Yes, good call.

Speaker1: [01:24:51] No, if I were honestly.

Speaker2: [01:24:52] Gerald probably would be my VP, or at least it would be head of my campaign. There we go.

Speaker4: [01:24:56] Yeah. Can I be your chief of staff?

Speaker1: [01:24:57] Sure. There we go. That's a West Wing.

Speaker2: [01:24:59] Thing, isn't it? That's why. Because you like the character?

Speaker1: [01:25:01] Yeah. So he's been fired now.

Speaker2: [01:25:03] He's been fired? Yeah. I'll be.

Speaker4: [01:25:04] Your Leo. Who's called Gerald by some crazy drunk.

Speaker2: [01:25:06] Brian would be my torrid affair, but that would be my second term.

Speaker3: [01:25:09] Yes. I spent all my time in your under your desk. He'd be your Monica Lewinsky. Yeah. The connection here is not good. I'm going to work on these plugs some more. Yes, exactly. Just every once in a while, you see me come up plugs, huh? Oh, stop it, Brian. What? I say stop it. Too much.

Speaker2: [01:25:23] Oh, all right.

Speaker1: [01:25:25] No, I don't know.

Speaker2: [01:25:26] But we actually wrote a So this is one thing. Again, if you're watching right now, tomorrow mug club it's mug club only.com/mug club. Remember I wrote and we can't find it. We had we had an issue when we had to transfer a lot of old content over and I wrote a treatment for two different series scripted series. One was a studio and then one was animated and it was about a White House aide, you know, the chief, the White House, the presidential aide. Yes. And the idea is he gets the job because his dad. But he's completely apolitical. And so the idea behind it was that you could have all this insanity taking place and it doesn't matter who's president. And he just keeps getting punted to the next president. So he's a perpetual presidential aide to fire him. And we wrote out a treatment of like ten episodes and I can't find it. But these are the kinds of things we want to work on and provide. I love that idea for you. Yeah, maybe we could rehash it together. Yeah. The other one was a studio was a single camera sitcom based. But anyway.

Speaker3: [01:26:17] Enthusiastic intern who has to change his political point of view.

Speaker2: [01:26:21] No, he was completely unenthusiastic. Like. Like Biden was like, I need you to go out and say that. But I wasn't that I was sniffing this kid for security reasons. Like I guess I can. Yeah. And the next shot is him at the podium, like I guess he likes, you know, was for safety, for security. And then he gets asked a question and he just gets stumped and has no way to deal with it. Yeah, I just always love discomfort. What about what.

Speaker3: [01:26:41] If he's a chameleon, though? If he's kind of a machiavellian chameleon? See how I'm changing? No, he.

Speaker2: [01:26:45] Has no motive. That's the whole thing. He's a blank slate. He's just a pawn. He's just used. He's lazy. Like. Yeah, sure, I'll do that. I'll do it.

Speaker3: [01:26:50] He's like a kid who cuts his own hair and you know what I mean? Just one of those. You didn't.

Speaker2: [01:26:55] Have the. You didn't cut your hair with a bowl.

Speaker3: [01:26:57] Oh, are you talking about me? Yeah.

Speaker2: [01:26:59] Oh, Must be nice to be so perfect. All right. I know it's crazy. Next chat. You're going to be Portland.

Speaker3: [01:27:04] I'll be in Portland. Helium, Helium. April 20th, 21, 22. And, yeah, if you like to laugh hard for over an hour and you have.

Speaker2: [01:27:10] All your dates@bryant.com.

Speaker3: [01:27:12] Ryan Cleveland.com is spelled with a Y B-R-Y-A-N. Yeah Portland a hell hole I can't wait you know Portland Nick walk around with a MAGA hat and see what happens. Did you get good luck? Fistfights.

Speaker2: [01:27:22] Someone got shot with a MAGA hat in Portland. Is that true? Yeah. Shot dead in the street. Remember they said we got MAGA over here and.

Speaker1: [01:27:27] Guy got shot dead?

Speaker3: [01:27:28] Well, I'm going to have to wear my leather neck.

Speaker1: [01:27:29] Yeah, it's not a funny gig.

Speaker4: [01:27:31] I mean, stop bullets, Brian.

Speaker1: [01:27:33] That is actually.

Speaker2: [01:27:34] A perfect way for you to go out doing a bit of what you are blissfully unaware will lead to your untimely demise. That's what it is. Yeah. Wow. Really?

Speaker3: [01:27:41] Die the way they die in death wish. No, I'll just leave them with guilt. I'll get hit and I'll go Love my children. Don't you go.

Speaker2: [01:27:47] Dying on me. Be sure to bring your sock with a roll of quarters. But double sock it. I've learned that.

Speaker3: [01:27:51] One the hard way. Am I throwing stars?

Speaker2: [01:27:53] I learned that one the hard way. But the nanny got off scot free.

Speaker1: [01:27:56] Next chat from.

Speaker6: [01:27:57] Jay Simi at Steven. I work in the office part of my company and the websites we connect with with our vendors are starting to require ESG stuff. Luckily, my company isn't woke. Any tips on avoiding the encroaching ESG? Okay, so.

Speaker2: [01:28:10] Here's the thing. I'm the worst person to ask this question because my policy of like, how I handle working with others, we actually have it. Some people call it a memo. It's more of a mission statement is go fornicate yourself with a wire brush. Yeah, Yeah. So if I've.

Speaker3: [01:28:26] Or a corncob.

Speaker2: [01:28:27] Well, you know, like the funny thing is I would actually say I'm a pretty I would say.

Speaker1: [01:28:32] Most people would say I'm a.

Speaker2: [01:28:32] Nice guy, but I'm also rigid. Sometimes I was like, No, I'm not. I'm not going to do that. Like ESG is like, no, no, I'm not going to do that.

Speaker1: [01:28:38] There were some things.

Speaker2: [01:28:39] With companies that I worked with were like, Well, we want you to do this. Not nothing ESG related, but, you know, I'm like, No. And that was it. And they go and it shocks people. They go, okay. And they come back to you. They try and sell it to you another way.

Speaker1: [01:28:49] I go, Yeah, it's the same thing. You try to tell me, like two weeks ago.

Speaker2: [01:28:51] No, it's still no, still enough. And you just move on. But I don't know how to help you because you have to work within the constraints of a company, which is why we're.

Speaker1: [01:28:57] So blessed.

Speaker2: [01:28:58] With, you know, Mudd Club and working with Rumble. No one tells us what to do at all, which is why we're able to do the content that we do. Gerald You've worked more in the corporate world.

Speaker1: [01:29:07] What would you say? Well, you also mainly run your own.

Speaker2: [01:29:10] Companies, aside from blowing out your knee. Notre Dame. That's.

Speaker4: [01:29:12] Thank you for that. That my main accomplishment.

Speaker3: [01:29:15] Did he blow his knee out?

Speaker4: [01:29:15] I did blow my knee out.

Speaker3: [01:29:17] That explains that several times. Waddle.

Speaker4: [01:29:20] I thought it was something else. I've got a bad back.

Speaker2: [01:29:21] He's been going through your. He's been going through your carry on. Yeah.

Speaker4: [01:29:24] No, I mean, honestly, pushing back on stuff like that is important. So look what happens at these corporate. I'll tell you. I'll tell you a story. There's a CEO friend of mine. Yeah. And he is in a company where he has the same kind of things. I'm not going to reveal any details. This story will.

Speaker2: [01:29:37] Have a point, though, right?

Speaker4: [01:29:37] It will definitely have a point. Right.

Speaker3: [01:29:40] And say, master, the problem.

Speaker4: [01:29:41] The problem that you find with CEOs or think of heads of HR or something like that is that they live kind of in this bubble where they feel like they're forced to have to do these things to make everybody happy in their company. And when nobody in the company has the balls to speak up and not even just protest, but just have an honest conversation like, Hey, I don't think we really need to do this, or, Hey, why are we doing that and not do it in a way that's offensive to anybody. They start to think, Hey, I have to go this direction, otherwise my entire workforce is going to hold this against me right? Hr is going to have a problem with this. When you start having conversations with those people, though, and start telling them like, Hey, look, this is why this is a problem, or Hey, this is kind of rough for us. Then they go, Oh wait, there's two sides to this. I don't have to just go one direction. I can actually pick the right direction. So that's what I'm saying. Like have conversations as much as you can and you may not be in a position as an employee to go all the way to the top, but you can talk to your boss and maybe other bosses and be prepared that they may not like that and you may have to leave that company.

Speaker3: [01:30:32] Right. But there's something more fundamental. If you are a principled person and if you believe in something, it characters defined on who you are when it costs you something. Of course that so I, I am constantly around people who talk about this where it's you know, well look, it's a it's a money thing. I can't afford not to. If money is more important than your principles and if there is a collective agreement and that's accepted, then we're all in deep shit. Yeah. Yeah. And that's what drives me nuts. That's why I appreciated what you did with. With this whole daily wire thing.

Speaker2: [01:31:09] Well, and by the way, it wasn't The Daily Wire. It was. It was. I'm not saying it was everywhere. And you know what, though? It's not too. But I think this is important. The closest thing that I've come up with up against with this and I actually want to go to Tool Man and Yakuza because they were there and so so was Hootie, where again, there were many contracts that were offered. And across the board it was you get penalized if you are removed from YouTube or if you're demonetized. Right. And this was always the sticking point because, you know, if you've watched this show or if you followed, I mean, maybe not even from 2009, but even 2014, it depends how you know that. It's always been a huge cause for us because we saw what was coming down the pike. And I think here we are. And I sat down with everyone here at the office and I said, Look, here are these not just one, but here are these offers on the table which are guaranteed and nothing will really change for you guys. Okay. Or do we want to be able to really kind of do something different and take take a risk? But I told you, you know, the risk was mitigated because we kind of knew what we could do on our own. And not only greater reward, but how important is it to everyone here that we be able to do the kind of show we want to do versus a guarantee? Remember, and I had a show of hands and we.

Speaker4: [01:32:20] Didn't skip a beat, man.

Speaker1: [01:32:21] We were ready.

Speaker2: [01:32:22] Well, everyone raise their hand because I know that I'm the elected.

Speaker1: [01:32:24] Leader here, but I.

Speaker2: [01:32:25] Also want wise counsel. Now, it's not a democracy, but if everyone said, no, no, no, we should take the guarantee. Everyone said, screw them and screw them. Meaning big tech, meaning screw big. Yep. Nope, we cannot. I remember. I think it was Tim was like what? Be monetized.

Speaker1: [01:32:38] On YouTube. You can't say anything. Yeah. Yeah. That's the cost it costs.

Speaker2: [01:32:44] You have to. You have to set your red lines. Yeah, that's what I would say for everyone. You're an employee or a business owner, you do have to have a red line and you have to abide by it.

Speaker3: [01:32:53] But you define yourself as a person based on the lines you are willing to defend. What are you willing to fight for? That's how you define yourself. It's more Brian, We should have music in the background every time I talk. Guys. Yeah, I keep telling you guys that. And the wind in my hair. It's only for when I cut myself. Gerald talks.

Speaker2: [01:33:10] About Rudy.

Speaker4: [01:33:10] I do. I did it a minute ago. Notre Dame came up. Know what I'm saying? Brian, Your point is right. People are defined by that. But that's not how we define ourselves anymore. That's the that's why we can go, Oh, well, it's too much money for me. It's about the money. I can't do this or, Oh, I don't want to be somebody who's not accepted at the cocktail parties and and somebody that's pointed at as a bigot or Oh, this may cost me a friend on Facebook that doesn't like my point of view or oh, this may cost me a promotion because my employer can worth it.

Speaker3: [01:33:37] This worth it? No, I know. Worth it.

Speaker4: [01:33:39] But that's the thing. Most people don't have that conviction and that. Well.

Speaker1: [01:33:43] A lot.

Speaker2: [01:33:43] Of people. But it really bothers me when you have people on the right, people who are in, you know, who we think are in our huddle and they're and they're playing ball. And I don't mean, by the way, being amicable. I don't mean finding there's nothing wrong with that. I don't do this whole thing like, oh, controlled opposition. I understand that. It's a very large tent and people have different opinions. But when people say that they are fighting for you, when people go out and express the issues that we have with big tech that we have. With media. And it's more important to exchange exposure with these shows, to get on their shows, to make sure that we can still be on their platforms rather than waging the figurative war. That's where I have, and I'll tell you where it comes. Well, Brian, you were about to say something and, well, the.

Speaker3: [01:34:21] Left has been very good at attacking our pocketbooks. It is a very, very real, vivid threat when you can't send your kids to the school you want or they can't go, or you may have to sell your house. That's the that is what they do. If you don't toe the party line, you could get fired, right? You will get marginalized or whatever. And so you can't expect a the regular citizen who's just trying to make ends meet and provide a better life for their kids. Thank you. This is good. It's well-earned, too. This is good. So Stephen's actually playing this right now on on his pocket? Yeah.

Speaker2: [01:34:59] Synthesizer right next to where I keep my diaper.

Speaker3: [01:35:01] I had no idea you had that kind of digital dexterity range. Yeah. Wow.

Speaker2: [01:35:05] You want to play the organ?

Speaker3: [01:35:06] I know your hands have always been so rough and dominant, Daddy. Anyway, I lost my train. I know.

Speaker1: [01:35:13] That's what happens. That's the problem. You asked for it. I asked for you called down the music. Now you got.

Speaker3: [01:35:18] It. I can't handle the truth. No, I. Somebody mashed my button. Yes, I have a button.

Speaker2: [01:35:23] It's. You really do measure yourself by when you when you stand to lose something. That's it. It's really easy to talk when that's all it is. You stand. And the thing is, with what we do and now people say, Oh, so what are you guys doing? Talking. Yeah, but then why do you get so enthused when there is a celebrity out there who may be conservative because you understand the influence, whether it was Kanye before he went off the deep end, whether it's Chris Pratt who then gets attacked and goes back into silence, it's because you understand that cultural relevancy matters because the culture, everything else right, is downstream. Some people say upstream, I don't know what the expression is that's appropriate. But Andrew Breitbart, I sat under his tutelage. Everything stems from that. That's the hard right is culture policy, all of it. And the problem right now is they're trying to pinch that valve because you are the culture. It's not even close. And that's why it's important for you guys to look and see how many people out there like you are watching, are tuning in, are taking part. It's not about us. It really is about how many of you are out there and they want you to believe that you are isolated. Let's grab one more chat and then I'll close on something that, you know, helped me.

Speaker6: [01:36:27] All right. From Master Bojangles, how important will you.

Speaker2: [01:36:30] Oh, I always eat there when I'm at the Charlotte airport.

Speaker6: [01:36:34] How important will U.S based farming and manufacturing be over the next decade?

Speaker2: [01:36:38] That is actually you know, that's a really good point. And we kind of botched the the good rancher spot because we had some technical issues during the live stream. But Good Ranchers is a sponsor I think can go to ladder you can go to good ranchers.com/crowder and a big part of what they do and I wasn't fully aware of this that a huge portion I don't know if it's 80% of the meat that you get at a supermarket comes from overseas. It doesn't come from here in the United States. And there's no reason for that, by the way, just like there's no reason for us to be dependent on foreign oil. Now, there is a problem, too, unfortunately, with subsidies to farms. And I know you'll have some farmers here say, well, we need it. Actually, no, you don't. Subsidies help large farms. They help mega farms. And if we we actually had I don't want to say protectionist policies, but I actually mean, if we actually protected American farmers, meaning that we didn't bombard them with red tape and regulations so that they could sell direct to consumer. I mean, it's really difficult, right? Right now with the FDA and the USDA. I did a story actually a long time ago, a long time ago. This is when I was living in Michigan and I went to and it never made air.

Speaker2: [01:37:38] It was with I remember a guy named Garrett. He had a little Snidely Whiplash mustache. I used him for a few videos back then. I still had free lancers and I went down to a goat farm and I found them because I was looking to become a part of a goat share. You weren't horny, Rod Milk? Yes, that's how I introduced myself. And then she didn't do the video. That's why I never aired. Thank you. And she ran a fence because a goat share with you can't get raw milk in Michigan. At least at that point. I know what the law is. Now, unless you owned a share of a goat, then it was legal because you could drink your own. And so I met her and she was actually talking with me. And I saw the way these these goats were treated. Right. They were all out the term pasture. Pastured meat doesn't really mean a whole lot. And she explained to me, she said, Yeah, you know, a lot of people come in and they ask me if this is organic. She said, It's not. And she said, Let me show you why it's not organic. This farm and this is it would be exactly what you picture what PETA would want happy goats everywhere. And she said, you see these fence posts and they are wooden fence posts.

Speaker2: [01:38:26] She said, I have to treat this with some kind of a liquid that includes a chemical which they say bars me from the USDA organic list and I would have to pay. It was either 5 or $10,000 to get certified USDA organic. She said, Let me take you somewhere. She took me to the farm. Down the road, there was a factory farm where the cows were basically in cages and the pigs it looked exactly like you would think when you think of modern factory farming, she said. These guys are USDA organic. Wow. She said, I'm not. They are said because they can afford it. And of course they get subsidies. She said, You want to know how many subsidies I received? None. It's the same thing with big bank bailouts, right? It benefits the big guys. So I wanted to do this piece on organic farming, and it was just at a time where I guess it didn't work. We have lots of content that. Doesn't make air. But Good Ranchers has talked about this, where some people go, it's not organic. Well, you know what? You could be getting organic meat that comes from China, for all you know. And it meets these regulations because they use the right treatment on their wooden fence posts. That was her example. But there are litany of examples.

Speaker3: [01:39:21] There's also really important thing about organic. It takes a lot more resources, more water, more of that, that sort of organic pesticides. Usually the plane has to fly more more times over the field to spray it, and that's more gas. So it's actually more fossil fuel intensive.

Speaker2: [01:39:41] It's also a term there's this natural fallacy, like I do understand that we're bombarded with, you know, with xenoestrogen that they call, you know, with things like BPA. Okay. And I do understand that there are chemicals that are that cause, you know, disruption of your endocrine system. However, just to think that because something natural do you know what you know what's a pesticide? You know what? A pesticide. Nicotine. Yeah, caffeine. These are defense mechanisms that plants develop that are toxic to animals. So they don't ingest them. Those are technically pesticides. So you can have natural pesticides out there, by the way, that can be far more toxic than modern. And I'm not saying in every single case, but just a lot of people like the security of going by organic that label. And I think it's far more important for you to know where your food is coming from to have a relationship, to be able to spot that farm. And that's one thing that's really great about about good ranchers. I always say, look, their prices are better than supermarket. If you set it up on auto order, their meat is every bit as every bit as good. Now am I going to lie to you and say it's better.

Speaker1: [01:40:37] Than any steak you've had at a USDA.

Speaker2: [01:40:38] Prime steakhouse? Well, no, because that's a bunch of preparation and dry aging, but it's at least as good as anything you get at the supermarket. It's all USDA choice or higher. Yeah, I've never I've never well, I shouldn't say that. I've had some of the the bottom sirloins but that's because they were that's a sirloin steak, right. It was a cheaper steak. No, I had Chuck they sent me some. Chuck Yeah, but you don't want to eat Chuck By itself.

Speaker3: [01:40:57] Chuck is leaner.

Speaker2: [01:40:58] Guys. They're Ribeyes or New York strips. They're filets. It's always at least as good as the price at the supermarket. More convenient. And it's American farms. That's when you win. Maiden America doesn't always mean the best, but in their case, it's every bit as good. It's more competitive pricing, and you're getting something that you can feel good about, about getting. And it is important. A lot of people don't know that a lot of your meat comes from overseas.

Speaker3: [01:41:19] Is machine gunning hogs from a helicopter, organic, anyone? I think anyone.

Speaker2: [01:41:24] Ted Nugent would say.

Speaker3: [01:41:25] So I'd like a dropping. How about dropping from the skids with an axe on a salad? Have you done.

Speaker1: [01:41:30] That? Ted Nugent.

Speaker2: [01:41:31] Invited us on an automatic automatic gun hog hunt from.

Speaker3: [01:41:35] Tim Kennedy said if you what we could do is jump from the choppers skis onto a pig's back and slay it with a hatchet. So we wanted to.

Speaker2: [01:41:47] Do something he's never.

Speaker3: [01:41:48] Done right. I said, Tim, I'm not I don't have that kind of bone structure. No, no, you know what I mean?

Speaker2: [01:41:53] Were you about to say something.

Speaker4: [01:41:54] To that, Gerald? Well, I was going to say I love the. The Wagyu burgers.

Speaker2: [01:41:58] Have you had them? Oh, yeah. Yeah. No, that is I will say this with like I said, it's always because I don't the reason I'm saying this because I'm not a connoisseur. If I get USDA choice at the supermarket, I'll often go to Costco. It's it's pretty comparable to good ranchers. Like I can't say that one is much better. One is a better price and one is from American farms. But the Wagyu beef, it has Wagyu ground into the beef. It is by far the best ground beef that I have ever had.

Speaker4: [01:42:21] I didn't realize how to cook it at first because this giant thing and I just I prefer.

Speaker2: [01:42:25] It to a steak, actually. Sometimes I do like a Salisbury steak where I'll just grill that and put some cheese on it. So I think it's important. And I think, again, like we're talking about with Anheuser-Busch and all of these big corporations, I don't have a problem if they make the best product and you like their product and they don't hate everything you stand for. I have no problem with a business being big. I think that's that's what free enterprise is. But I do think we're at the point right now we have to be very diligent in what it is that you support. And going back to Bryan Callen at Bryan callen.com. We're going to see you guys tomorrow.

Speaker1: [01:42:52] Bryan Callen will be here only on Mudd Club.

Speaker2: [01:42:54] Lots.com/mudd Club. Again supporting the small guys. This is entirely funded by viewers like you. One more week free. You get this wonderful hand-etched mug, by the way. It's the only way to get it. You can't buy it and you get all this additional content. I will say this, though, in dealing with kind of the contract issues, but also in business, I think a big part of what what shaped me, you know, I was a very, very late bloomer. And you have to understand that I was a loud mouth American conservative being raised in socialist Quebec. And I didn't even really know what conservative was. I've told this story before where I got in trouble with my drama teacher who was a self-avowed communist, which I didn't know at the time, and she was telling us that we should give the land back. This was when I was 12 years old, give all of the land back to the Native Americans. And I had just come from history class where we learned about the brutal wars between the Algonquins and the Iroquois. I guess you guys say Iroquois, we learned Iroquois in French, but the Iroquois, Iroquois and the Algonquin, those were the two main tribes.

Speaker1: [01:43:47] And I said, Well, I said, Give the land back.

Speaker2: [01:43:48] I said, To who? She said, What? I said.

Speaker1: [01:43:51] Who do we give the land.

Speaker2: [01:43:51] Back to? What the.

Speaker1: [01:43:52] Algonquins or the.

Speaker2: [01:43:53] Iroquois? I mean, they were in a perpetual state of effectively civil war.

Speaker1: [01:43:56] She said, Oh, that's so right wing. And I was stumped. I said. Maybe so. And I went home and I asked my dad, I said, What's right wing? And he said.

Speaker2: [01:44:08] What? Did someone, someone attack you with that? I said, Yeah. I said, Was it one of your teachers? I said, Yes. He said, okay, this is what she's trying to say. And he explained to me what conservative was, what liberal was, and he had to explain it to me because there was no conservative party in Quebec. There was liberals and liberal separatists. Is that right? Yeah, they don't they don't really exist. I mean, technically, but you're either a liberal or a separatist in Quebec. And I went back the next day to the teacher. I said.

Speaker1: [01:44:30] Hey, remember yesterday when I was.

Speaker2: [01:44:32] Trying to bait her to call me the right wing, but she didn't.

Speaker1: [01:44:34] Take the bait? I was like, Remember yesterday when you called me right wing? She said, Yeah. I said.

Speaker2: [01:44:38] Yeah, I'm that.

Speaker1: [01:44:39] And that was awesome. Burn, burn, burn. I am that. Yeah.

Speaker2: [01:44:44] But I would get into trouble because it's this America hating club. So anyway, I was bullied a lot as a kid and some of it was of my own doing, but when I was growing up, I was, I went through a period, I was short and fat and then really tall and skinny, right? There was no in between. I didn't really start shaving until I was like 20 years old. So I was I was I was bullied a lot. And I remember at a certain point when I kind of filled out, I think I was around 19, and that was when I shot from like 170 to like 210. And at that point I was grappling a lot and I had another run in and I just flipped the switch in my head where I said, You know what? I'm never again, I'm never going. I knew how it felt and I really was upset that I even had friends who were also scared because, you know, I wasn't in the Cool Kids clique. We were mostly skinny nerds. And I said, That's not going to be me. I'm not going. I'm just going to make them wish that they picked someone else. I'm not going to go along to get along if I'm being bullied. And I've taken that with me through business and dealing with YouTube. I mean, for crying out loud, we have a lawyer on retainer. I don't think anyone has had more run ins with YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and then in the way that we've done business where we're incredibly loyal and the retention that we have, I'm incredibly grateful.

Speaker2: [01:45:50] I have the same best friends that I've had since I was a kid. It's, you know, Johnny, when I was 12, known you for 15 years. My dad is my third best friend. Those people have been my best friends my whole life. But same thing when people said, no, actually, this is how it has to be done. And this happened with every major corporation where I worked. It happened on film sets and I just said, No, I'm not going to be that guy who sits down and remains silent. And I used to be the guy. When people would ask me at Q and A's, they would say, Hey, I'm in university or Hey, I'm in film school and my teachers are this way. What should I do? Should I speak up if I know they're wrong? And I used to say, this is maybe ten years ago, Hey, you know what? Keep your head down and, you know, get your grades and then do good Once you get to a position of authority. The problem is now they can smell it on you. The problem is now there's no way to hide it. And so I think you have to flip that switch. You have to act as though you are someone who's been bullied, even if you haven't been. Because I'll tell you what, are you a conservative in the United States right now? Most of you are actually pretty young. If you're watching right now in your 20s or 30s, even your 40s, most of you have a college degree.

Speaker2: [01:46:46] We know we can look at the demographics and you guys answer the polls. Guess what? You are in a minority. You have been othered. You are being bullied. Do you believe that kids can't transition? Do you believe that kids shouldn't be castrated? Guess what? You are being bullied right now. You are being bullied into silence. Do you believe that businesses should be able to conduct business as they see fit without being burdened with ESG scores? Do you see what's happening with the bureaucracy, the red tape and the squeezing of the American entrepreneur? If you believe that you are being bullied because they are trying to silence you? And so I don't know the specific answer in your workplace. I don't know the social dynamics there, but I do know that it doesn't it doesn't matter. You know, you have some fighters who yeah, they'll study tape, but at the end of the day, they're going to have to dance with the one they brought. At the end of the day, they are going to have to go to where they are strongest and they've decided that there are certain things they won't allow to happen if they plan on being successful. That's in any sport, right? You can't constantly be in a state of adaptation. It needs to be a component. But adaptation, right? Being agreeable is only a value if you know where you are rigid, if you know where you will not be agreeable.

Speaker1: [01:47:50] So all of you, the answer to the.

Speaker2: [01:47:52] Macro answer is.

Speaker1: [01:47:54] If you don't think of yourself as someone.

Speaker2: [01:47:56] Who's been bullied, guess what? If you're watching this right now, you are. You are the victim of bullying.

Speaker1: [01:48:03] And but you don't.

Speaker2: [01:48:04] Have to be. You have to decide every day. It's a battle of inches. Every day, every scenario. Don't couch your words. Don't don't be you don't have to be careful and prudent and constantly tread lightly. The left doesn't do that. Do not allow yourself to be bullied moving forward. And that means you'll have to take a notepad. I want you to do this. If you're watching right now, if you're listening on audio, take a notepad and write down your non-negotiables. And when you find someone pushing up against those, the alarm should go off. You're being bullied and determine in advance that's not going to be you.

Speaker1: [01:48:36] You may not win. You may not, but.

Speaker2: [01:48:39] You make them wish they picked someone else. And guess.

Speaker1: [01:48:41] What? The next guy or the next gal or the next Z, they'll wish.

Speaker2: [01:48:44] They picked someone else. And guess what? Sooner or later, the word gets out and they just pick somebody else. And if that somebody.

Speaker1: [01:48:50] Else has also.

Speaker2: [01:48:52] Made up their mind as you do, guess what? At a certain point, they're out of options.

Speaker1: [01:48:55] If all of you and there's enough of you right now.

Speaker2: [01:48:58] Say, I'm not going to be that guy. I've decided where my red lines are and I won't be bullied. You can change the world. And I don't mean that in some nebulous. Be the change that you seek.

Speaker1: [01:49:08] Write it down on a paper.

Speaker2: [01:49:09] Put it up on your fridge If you have to make up your mind. Flip. Flip that switch. Fight like.

Speaker1: [01:49:14] Hell. We will see you tomorrow on Mug Club exclusively.

Speaker2: [01:49:16] And for those of you who are not there, you don't have to enter your credit card info, so you should be there. We'll see you on Monday. Happy Easter, of course, to everybody out there. That's a red line for me, guys. Well, Guy, God in the flesh. I mean, I won't get. He is risen. We'll see you in.
