Time Text
People sometimes take our reporting very seriously.
That's what motivates us to work so hard.
Biden visited the border and told everyone, please disperse.
There's nothing to see here, please.
And we talked to Kevin Sorbo and pray we don't get left behind.
All this and more.
Oh.
You moron.
All this and more on the Babylon Bee Podcast.
Hey everyone, welcome to the Babylon Bee Podcast.
We're hanging out today with Kyle, Adam, and Chandler.
We are here in usually sunny Southern California, but we're getting absolutely pummeled by rain.
Yeah.
Just strange wet stuff falling out in soon season.
Yeah, non-stop.
I'm grateful for the little breaks, though.
I was talking on the phone to my parents in Pennsylvania about it.
It's weird because the roads are flooded out here, but the amount of rain we're getting is like a normal amount of rainfall.
Like normal human amount of rain.
It's when it rains on other states on the East Coast regularly.
This weather has...
Yeah.
This weather has reinforced that I could never live anywhere else.
I'm like, this is horrible for me.
I'm not doing well in this rain.
And it would be like so much worse anywhere else.
So grateful for the sun today.
Woohoo.
Now, sometimes lady folk complain about rain in their hair.
Does it?
It definitely does.
It frizzes up my hair.
I think it's a little bit more frizzy than normal, but I use hairspray, which is like apparently like a sin in hair world.
Like don't use hairspray.
That's so bad for your hair.
It dries it out and stuff.
I'm like, well, I'm just going to keep using it because it's the only thing that makes my hair like give it the bigness that I, you know, the volume.
That's another hair term.
Treasure in heaven is great, but it's not going to buy you a tank of gas.
So let's take a moment to briefly review the current state of our economy and the global effect the war between Russia and Ukraine has had.

Volume is one of those terms I've seen on shampoo bottles before, and I have no idea what it means.
Like it always says adds volume or has volume.
Volume is just a bad thing.
I don't know what that is.
I assume like if my hair is really flat combed and I do like volume, then it's not mad.
Space from the scalp is volume from the scalp.
But I feel like I've used those shampoos.
I don't know if guys' shampoos say that usually.
Volume.
But sometimes I look for that.
If there's only one, sometimes, you know, if there's only like a woman's shampoo in the shower, I'll use it whatever.
But I've never noticed that it makes it big or anything.
I think like shampoo removes oil.
It's like soap, so it removes oil.
So like the less oil there is, the more like bounce and volume it will have.
And, you know, the more grease, like the longer you go without a shampoo, like the more flat and greasy it gets.
So that's that's where volleyball.
I've just used soap as shampoo before.
Is that not a really good thing?
Like a bar of soap.
Like if you don't have shampoo as soap before, too.
That's just a standard operating procedure for me.
Like I feel like a normal shower for me is like shampoo.
And then you just kind of rub it all in.
Let your hair dirt run over the rest of your body.
And then that gets it all.
Yeah.
I'm not going to say that.
I've never done that before, but I don't think that that's like the right, the right thing to do.
Like dish soap is not the same as hand soap.
It's not the same as shampoo.
It's all the same stuff, but it's different.
You know what I mean?
Like you have to do it.
After growing up, I've used dish soap.
I wouldn't use it regularly, but I think I have used dish soap before as well.
Like sometimes at the gym shower, like I, oh, I didn't bring my special like sensitive skin face wash.
But I did bring my dish soap.
It tries it out.
Like I do have some dish soap.
I didn't bring my body wash.
Oh, but I did bring my dish soap.
Yeah.
I never leave home without it.
All right.
Yeah, but we're hanging in there with the rain.
I know it's kind of weird that we're going to have a drought in a few months, I'm sure.
And they're not capturing.
I actually heard this on the radio already.
They were talking about it yesterday.
Oh, it was CNN.
It was Anderson Cooper.
And they were saying how even though we get all this rain, it still doesn't fix the drought.
So as soon as the rain is over, California is still in a drought and we can still complain about it.
Well, they're not building new reservoirs, which I guess is a thing.
And they're actually destroying some reservoirs that are older.
So it's like they said something like 80% of this rainwater just goes out to the ocean.
You're like, come on.
We've got to be able to collect this stuff, you know?
But it's really sad.
I mean, especially on the central coast, there's a lot of complete destruction.
I know a five-year-old kid got washed away and died in Paso Rublins, which is terrible.
So now let's do our comedy podcast.
So this episode, we're going to talk about getting left behind in the rapture because we're talking to Kevin Sorbo, who directed the new Left Behind movie.
I didn't even know there was a new Left Behind movie.
I didn't either.
Apparently, this is a direct sequel to the Nicolas Cage Chad Michael Murray one.
Yeah.
Well, this is an extremely fun, packed, fun-filled episode.
We got weekly news without Amiens.
We got Sizzler Facts.
We got Haymail.
And we're going to look at a bunch of times when people thought the Babylon B was real.
So first, I think in our last episode, we talked a little bit about the athletes that have been collapsing.
And we weren't sure because I kind of said, well, I'm a little skeptical about it because I know that happened in previous years.
So you really need to see the delta between.
You'd have to see that there's a definite increase in the people dropping dead since the COVID vaccine.
And then also know that that's the only variable, that there's not other causes.
And this woman named Dr. Clark emailed us, and she said that she has some papers on the issue that have direct data on the numbers of athletes who collapsed or died in the years prior to the COVID vaccines and then in the years since.
Dan, do you have that?
Oh, yeah, here's the PDF.
So we can maybe link to this or something if people want to go through the data.
Yeah.
But she was claiming that this shows like in the years since the vaccine, it's been like between hundreds and thousands more occurrences than in the decades prior.
So according to this person who seems to be something of an expert in the field, that there are access deaths.
So that's interesting.
That's one point of data that you might want to check out.
So I'm not really taking a stance on it because I have to read through this.
Yeah.
So that definitely proves that there has been an increase.
But then, yeah, you'd still have to know there's not other variables environmental factors or any lifestyle changes or anything that have also affected it.
Yeah.
But that's interesting.
Have you guys ever seen Don't Look Up?
Yeah.
I watched it last night.
It's good.
It was so depressing.
And I like woke up in the middle of the night and I couldn't stop thinking about it.
And then like today in the gym on the TV, it was like, all these like flights got shut down last night.
And then like there was like some engine that blew up in Long Beach on some other plane.
And I was just like, the movie has just never ended.
It's just like that.
It was such an accurate depiction of the time we live in.
I felt like it was very abusive and cruel, the ending, but they released it in the middle of the pandemic when there was already all this fear.
And I'm just like listening to this and I'm just like, yeah, the movie is just still going for me.
Sorry, I'm a little traumatized by the film.
That was kind of like a climate change.
It was definitely a metaphor for climate change, but also maybe COVID as well.
Not done too much.
And you know what I actually enjoyed about that movie?
It was definitely meant.
It's Adam McKay from SNL and a bunch of other stuff.
It's definitely meant as a climate change analogy, but I think the treatment of the way the media sensationalizes things and the way people react to the news and question the science and make up their own narratives.
I think you can kind of relate to that on both sides because that happens with a lot of different narratives.
And I thought it was a good movie.
I mean, I thought it was well done.
The majority of the film, maybe the first 80 or 90% of the film wasn't necessarily like pointing fingers, but at the end, it was like, it's the Trump supporters' fault.
And like, it's, oh, it's this, like, and they made fun of Trump.
So I'm like, that is like so ridiculous.
But it wasn't totally finger pointing, but, you know, it got a little bit skewed because I felt like it sucks you haven't seen this, but I just felt like it was pretty accurate depiction of like politicians and media, the whole movie.
And then at the end, it was like no redemption.
The world ends.
Everyone dies.
And then like, it was, it was because it's because of those deniers.
I love it.
Oh, yeah.
The very end is going to be fun.
I wouldn't want to spoil it.
Yeah, I don't want to spoil it, but the very end is fantastic.
The ending is funny, but yeah, I guess that's the redemption.
Like the leaders that sabotage the whole thing get their no spoil alerts.
They get their comeuppets.
They get their comeuppance, but it's, I'm going to leave it vague for Kyle because he's going to go home and watch it today, right, Kyle?
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Not.
It's very depressing.
I've been, I've been kind of haunted by it, actually, because I thought it was very accurate.
So I'm like reading this report and I'm just like, great.
More great news.
More great news from the new world order.
Not.
Not.
We need to bring back not.
That's a good thing that she's not.
We also forget the talk of the top talk.
Psych is a good one.
Face ain't listening.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, this has been stuff that's good.
Let's talk about what's in the news this week.
What's in the news this week?
Well, Republican Kevin McCarthy was elected House Speaker after 15 ballots.
It only took 15 votes, but he did it.
The House passed a rules package formalizing his agreement with the 20 House Freedom Caucus members who are withholding their votes.
The new rules aim to reduce spending, increase legislative transparency, and shift power from leadership to rank and file House members.
And it says it requires a supermajority to pass tax increases, a 72-hour notice on legislation before it can be considered, and a one-member threshold to place a motion to vacate the speaker chair.
But it was a fun few days.
I got to say, I mean, I know people were making fun of the Republicans.
We were making fun of the Republicans because they're kind of a bunch of clowns.
But I really enjoyed politics for the first time in a long time.
Just watching the different ballots go through and they're like, he's going to make it this time.
And then one guy's like, no, I nominate Donald Trump.
And you're just like, this is crazy.
I loved it.
I enjoyed following it.
It was entertaining.
I'm always on the fence when stuff like that happens, where that sort of gridlock, it looks sort of embarrassing from the outside, but it is also how democracy works.
You're supposed to not just vote for someone if you don't really support them.
What's the name of that?
Is it 12 Angry Men?
You could do a sketch, like 12 Angry Men, but it's like trying to get Kevin MacArthur elected.
The one holdout.
Yeah, it's like there's a holdout that turns everybody in that movie.
Yeah.
Spoilers.
But uh yeah, so this this was a lot of fun watching this all happen and uh and yeah, going good for them.
Good for Kevin McCarthy.
Hopefully he keeps his end of the bargain and see what happens.
Well, some classified documents from Biden's time as a vice president were discovered in a private office.
Uh-oh, here comes the FBI raid.
As Trump said, when is the FBI going to raid the many houses of Joe Biden?
Perhaps even the White House.
Those documents were definitely not declassified because only he can do it with his mind.
Yeah.
What it is.
So fewer than a dozen classified documents were found when closing out the private office in the Pinn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement.
Some of them are marked SCI, which stands for sensitive compartmentalized information, which is highly sensitive info from intelligence agencies.
And yeah, so currently Special Counsel Jack Smith is investigating former President Donald Trump for mishandling documents at Mar-a-Lago.
And Biden said that he didn't know about them, which I believe.
I believe that.
And I also think it's a legitimate excuse for the Trump ones and a lot of stuff.
They're boxes and boxes of documents.
and I don't think there's yeah That's the double standard.
I have heard them even on CNN and some of the left-leaning networks, they were discussing how this is now a big dilemma for Merrick Garland and stuff, because you have to treat both of these cases equally.
And some of the left-leaning networks are trying to say, oh, but Trump was uncooperative.
That the difference is like Biden handed it over right away.
But still, to try to say that there's some crime at the core of it, you can't say that Trump committed a crime, but Biden didn't.
You have to treat them both the same.
I also heard that they actually found this out right before midterms.
Oh, really?
And then they held on to it because they didn't want it to affect midterms, which is interesting.
And the VP has no power to declassify.
Presidents do.
That's totally organic thought.
Definitely not written on our show notes at all.
Oh, I see, because he was VP at the time.
So he couldn't take the documents and declassify them.
I guess is the idea.
So, all right.
Well, that's exactly what I was trying to say.
I do not care that he had these files at all, except in the fact that they that same.
It just feels hypocritical.
At least when he was VP, he had more like cognitive capabilities.
To me, I just like when I hear anything about Biden, I'm just like, he didn't do anything.
He didn't tweet that.
He didn't say that.
No, that's not organic thought.
Like, he's just sort of, I don't know.
I don't, I don't see much going on with him.
So it's hard for me to like take any kind of like Biden headline seriously because I think it's like one of his there's not a lot going on upstairs.
Yeah.
The gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train's just not coming.
Well said.
All right.
A U.S. federal agency is considering a ban on gas stoves.
So the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commissioner said gas stove usage is a hidden hazard.
They're claiming that it causes childhood asthma and that it's possible they want to ban them completely.
It says 35% of households in the United States use a gas stove.
And the number approaches 70% in some states like California and New Jersey.
And of course, there's also that picture that went viral of Joe Biden cooking on a gas stove from last year or something.
I saw someone also found one of AOC cooking on a gas stove in one of her Instagram live videos after she tweeted that they cause breaks.
It seems unnecessary, but what always annoys me when the government does stuff like this, if they really find real evidence that they're harmful in that way, put the information out there and over time, you gradually transition to a new and better system.
Exactly.
You don't have to ban things and force people to get rid of stuff and buy new things.
And don't get me started on microwaves.
No, I think that in general, like I can't trust any kind of like health advice.
Of all, there's just like constant information like battling each other, like information overload.
Like, eggs are great for you, eggs are the worst thing you can eat.
Oh, meal is great for you, oatmeal is the worst thing you can eat.
And when it comes from the government, like, I can't trust anything they say because most of the government, like, heart, the American Heart Association, is like funded by Tyson, so it's like eat eight servings of Tyson chicken nuggets a day.
It's like, gee, I can't really trust anything that American like health agencies say because they clearly don't care about our health.
They would ban craft mac and cheese and all these like Walmart dollar 65 meals.
I was just talking about this with a friend.
Like, this stuff is banned in Europe, it's not healthy, and yet, like, obesity and heart problems are just out of control.
How do you feel about microwaves?
That was just a joke because, like, there's also information that electromagnetic frequencies are bad for your, like, my mom was always like, Don't stand too close to the microwave.
It's bad for me.
It's radiation.
I always worry about that.
See, I've never heard anything.
I still stand away from the microwave.
I still like cooking it.
I look at it.
I try to not spend much time there because I'm afraid there's some sort of radiation going on.
I'm sure not because I've also heard that that's like an old wives.
Yeah.
Because my mom's like, don't stand too close to the microwave.
There's radiation and stuff.
I'm like, well, it's all, it's like, it's radiating on my food that I'm eating too.
So I'm like, it's fine.
So sometimes I'll stand in front of the microwave, but then I'll just be like, but what if she's right?
So I kind of go through.
But there is a whole documentary called EMF'd about electromagnetic frequencies and how it's like flowerbed.
But I haven't watched it, so I can't really say.
I didn't say it.
That was the I'm not saying it.
I'm trying to.
It's funny because it's a play on words and letters.
Play on letter.
Thanks, Adam.
That's so funny because everyone.
I literally don't.
I guess I put in my food and I don't stand right in front of the microwave and I've never thought about it.
I, when I feel like it's a common sense, like, I'm not going to.
I put a cold piece of pizza in the microwave and then I go and get one of those dentist lead vests.
Right.
It's just common sense.
And then I press start and hide behind the counter until it dings.
And then eat the microwave.
And then eat the microwave leftover pizza because we care about our health.
Yes.
Yeah.
Get those nuclear tongs that they use.
Put on the asthmat suit.
The full lead suit.
Eat it.
Well, I'm reading a Thomas Soule book for the first time this year.
I've never read Thomas Soul before.
How does he feel about microwaves and gas stoves?
Well, I haven't gotten to that chapter yet.
But he does talk about safety and risk and how you can say anything has some like nothing is safe.
Everything has some level of unsafeness.
But they just like pick out one little data point and go, oh, we think it's unsafe because of this.
And you don't look at all the, you know, second causes that might come up because of this.
And that's really apparent in California because they have that law where they have to put the there's chemicals on this premise that are known to cause cancer warnings everywhere.
And I just see them.
I see them everywhere.
Every single place I go.
Every time I order it.
The gas station, Starbucks, restaurants, stores.
It's everywhere.
It just says there's chemicals here that cause cancer.
I was like, well, I'm already here.
Is that going to stop me?
It's really crazy.
And I just wonder if it's always been this way.
Because I also saw this timeline.
I follow a lot of like health and fitness accounts and I saw this like spike in obesity in because like people were pretty active and ate pretty like normal diets and in like the 50s and the 40s.
But then when the American like health association came out with the food pyramid, that's when everything that kind of got messed up.
And that's like when obesity started and stuff.
So that's when fat people started.
That's when fat people started.
Invented fat people.
Yeah, America invented fat people.
I don't know what you said that made me think of that.
But it's a good point.
Yeah.
Well, Biden finally visited El Paso to inspect the border.
Biden's clone visited El Paso.
Well, they like cleaned up and put all these, like they chose a very particular place to bring him.
They cleaned it all up.
They moved away the homeless people in the end.
They moved all the way through.
They moved away the immigrants.
He walked up to the border and they got rid of his walker and then he posed for his picture, right?
And now that something like five million immigrants have made it into the United States under his watch, two years into his presidency.
Oh, I thought you said cologne.
No, clone.
That's right.
I didn't understand.
That's why you didn't comment on that.
Biden's clone.
Because I said, I don't believe anything that has like a Biden headline anymore.
I'm like, oh, it must have been one of his clones or like, I don't know.
Sorry, guys.
Honestly, I don't hear about any news until like I'm sitting on the podcast.
I'm like, oh, that happened this week.
That's.
They came up with a new term.
This is interesting.
New term just dropped.
Instead of illegal immigration, they are now saying irregular migration.
Oh, gosh.
Which they weren't already saying.
What were they saying?
They weren't saying illegal immigration.
It was undocumented.
There's undocumented immigrants and there was migrant workers.
Illegal agents.
Irregular migrants.
Irregular migration sounds like they're like weaving and walking in a zigzag pattern patterns across the desert.
Human irrigation.
We should just like have a game where we come up with like similar sounding like.
Did you say human irrigation?
Human irrigation.
Such is like peeing out in the field.
It's like when water irrigates, but instead of water, it's humans.
They're just flowing across your border.
Okay, I see what I'm saying.
Yeah.
That's all I can do.
That's all I came up with.
So I guess it can't be a game if I only can come up with one joke.
So Laura Cronin, I don't know who that is, but she's on Twitter and she tweeted, check out the same exact sidewalk photographed one day apart near the border in El Paso that Joe Biden will be visiting this week.
Guess when they're going to be cameras around when they need to clean it up, huh?
Where did they ship the people off to?
On Wednesday, there's a bunch of migrants and I don't know if they're homeless people or migrants or whatever.
Where'd they go?
On Thursday, they're completely gone.
But genuinely, like, where did they go?
And how did they get them?
And shoot them off into camps or whatever?
That's how the Biden administration should solve the migrant crisis and homelessness.
Just have him visit every city in the middle of the year.
And that city will have to shoe those people away before he comes.
When we were in San Diego, like late October, early November, and my wife noticed that all the homeless people were gone like a week before midterms.
And she was like, oh, it's because of the Democrats are about to.
Yeah.
And I was like, wow, that is insane.
Yeah, instead of addressing the problem at the root, let's just make it look okay.
Shuffle them around.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's really, really ideal.
That was sarcasm.
It's not ideal.
It's not.
Not.
The way those two pictures appear, it looks like they put all the homeless people in that yellow trash can that it took them away.
They're just in the trash cans.
They swept them up and dumped them in there.
Yeah.
Well, now it's time for our banger of the week.
You know what drives me crazy?
When I'm out of the country, I travel a lot and I'm starting to watch a show that I'm getting into.
But when I come home, it's blocked on my streaming service here in the States.
If you didn't know, lots of amazing titles are only available in certain regions.
So you're not making the most of your streaming subscriptions.
If you're wondering how do you get access to these shows without leaving the country, what you need is a little help from Private Internet Access.
Private Internet Access is a leading VPN provider that works with all major streaming services so that you can access more content than ever.
All you need to do is connect to a server and you're good to go.
The VPN is really user-friendly.
One subscription can be used on up to 10 devices.
Personally, I love using private internet access to watch shows from the UK.
Have you ever seen the Venezuelan version of the Great British Baking Show?
You should.
Head to piavpn.com/slash the babylon B and get an 83% discount.
That's just $2.03 a month.
And you also get four extra months completely for free.
Banger of the week.
I'm your like makeshift soundboard today.
Everybody on the nut it is.
Here's the banger.
McCarthy warns not voting for him could delay more funds to Ukraine.
Is that an actual pocket square that he was that a Ukraine pocket square?
Or did we Photoshop then?
I'm not sure.
But a lot of people thought that this was real, which was part of the reason for the viral sharing.
And I think he did say something later like that.
That is a possible sounds like the sort of rhetoric they would use.
Yeah.
I guess one of the things he did agree to with the Freedom Caucus members was fewer funds to Ukraine.
Yeah.
So I think it was kind of a reverse prophecy fulfilled or something.
But and we'll be talking in a minute about more people who thought Babylon B was real.
So, but first off, here's but next off, here's our bomb of the week.
Bomb of the week.
This one is Gridlock couple on 15th round of voting where to go for dinner.
It's our bomb.
It's good we decide not to make a video.
I don't feel like this was our lowest performing article of the week.
I need to start.
I always question that too.
But that's a good one.
I like this one.
I like it too.
And they're both McCarthy vote related.
Yeah, I finally understand the joke because when you guys were filming that sketch, I was like, what are you guys doing?
Oh, you didn't know the root of that.
I try to stay away from it, honestly, because if I get like sensory overload of like political, yeah, so I try, I try to take some weeks where I'm just like, I'm just like, you know, like, let people tell me if there's something that's I think you need to glance at it, get a sense of it, and look away.
It's like, yeah, don't sit in there.
Seinfeld episode.
Never mind.
That's inappropriate for this podcast.
But you get it, get a sense of it and look away, I think is the move.
Now, here's something you won't want to look away from.
It's time for Sizzler Facts.
18 weeks ago, we debuted a new feature of the podcast called Sizzler Facts.
Oh, Emma.
You guys know Emma.
Five brands.
She says, My Army Reserve unit used.
I'm going to impersonate Emma.
My Army Reserve unit used to dine at Sizzler for lunch on drill weekends.
This is my first introduction to Sizzler.
We could get anything that's under $15 for free on the unit, or we could pay the difference.
I typically didn't get the salad bar because then I'd have to pay extra.
When the pandemic hit, we stopped going.
And since then, we've never used them for lunch.
I think they either raise their prices or closed down.
I haven't been to Sizzler since and don't plan on ever going again.
Love, Emma.
I feel like you sounded more like Emma before you started trying to impersonate Emma.
I'm only doing it because whenever she impersonates me, she's like, she makes my voice all squeaky.
I'm like, that is not how I sound.
I see.
The women cat fighting.
Well, this has been Sizzler Facts.
No, I wasn't.
I'm sorry.
Are you women going to get the new all-female MMs?
Is that real?
Yeah.
They have the new package that's all.
Wait, are you serious?
I thought that was.
No, there's the all-female ones.
Because the green and brown ones are the female characters in the commercials.
So there's all-female packs for limited time that are just green and brown.
You look thrilled because you're a woman.
You're happy about it.
I just can't believe that's a real thing.
When Emma pitched that as like a headline, I was like, oh, all-female MMs.
That would be ridiculous.
All the feminist work for all the centuries led up to this moment.
So instead of thinking the Babylon B was real, you thought a real story was the Babylon B reverse.
That's been happening a lot more lately to a lot of people.
That's so dumb.
Where's the all-male package?
Are the majority of MM colors?
The men have had their time.
But like, are the majority of MM characters men?
I think red is a man.
I think yellow is a man.
Because those used to be the only two characters, and then they introduced the green one, and then people were mad because it was a woman, but it was sexy.
They said it was the sexy one.
And then there's the one woman, and then there's the trans one.
She was no lolo.
That was like a brown, nerdy woman one.
My thing is they're not even gen, they shouldn't have gender.
They're chocolate candies that are coated in beetle poop food coloring.
Yeah.
So no one should be eating those.
And if you're eating MMs or peanut MMs, you need to be reconsidering your life choices.
I like the caramel ones.
And I'll, you know, actually, I didn't even know.
You know what?
I don't like the caramel ones.
I like the peanut butter.
Not butter.
I like the peanut butter ones.
The peanut M ⁇ Ms. It's like creamy on the inside, yeah.
Peanut butter.
Butter MMs.
So they're like MM.
They're like Reese's Reese's Pieces.
Or as Emma says, I'm making fun of Emma so much on the spot.
Reese's Pieces.
It's not even a valid.
She was trying to make it into a debate.
Is it pronounced Reese's Pieces or Reese's PCs?
No, that's not a valid Pieces.
Reese's Pieces.
Reese's Pieces.
And I'm like, no, it's literally a debate.
No one debates that it's not a debate.
Reese's.
All right, it's time for weekly news with Adam Yenser.
It's time for the weekly news with Adam Jenser.

His name is Kevin Sorbo.
He's putting out a new film called Left Behind Rise of the Antichrist, which I believe is a sequel to the 2014 film with Nicholas Cage.
And we talked to him about it.
So Brett Pella is not in this movie.
You can go to leftbehindmovie.com to check it out.
You can go to sorbostudios.com and sorboisrailtrip.com, where, you know, maybe there's an Israel trip that has something to do with Kevin Sorbo.

And now it's time for another interview on the Babylon Bee Podcast.
Hey, so we are, this is the Babylon Bee interview show.
I'm here with Emma and I'm Jarrett.
And with us on the line is Kevin Sorbo, one of our favorite guests.
Really, really happy to have you on today, Kevin.
Thank you so much for joining us.
Good to be here, guys.
I appreciate it.
I love what you guys do.
I follow you.
I quote you guys a lot.
You guys are awesome what you're doing.
Well, you're awesome too.
And you have a new movie coming out.
It's the newest installment of the Left Behind series called The Rise of the Antichrist, right?
And it is the sequel of the Nick Cage reboot that happened a couple of years ago.
Is that right?
Yeah, actually, his came out in 2014, which was the same.
That was the last movie they did on Left Behind.
They did like three or four movies with Kirk Cameron back in like 2000, 2001.
Yeah.
And the book series, the book rights are owned by Cloud10, a company based out of Toronto.
And they got inundated because the same year they came out with Nicholas Cage version of the character I'm playing in this one, Rayford Steele.
He played that character in 2014.
My movie, God's Not Dead, came out.
It was a massive hit.
And so they got inundated with all these people saying, why did you book Nick Cage now?
Well, why not use Kevin Sorbo?
So they contacted me about a year after that movie came out and said, look, we got to use you in the next one.
And then so two years ago, they said, okay, we're ready.
We got it funded.
We're ready to do it.
We're going to rewrite a little bit, make it more modern day.
And so I directed it as well about a year ago.
And now we're coming out.
We got, I think, 1,700 screens between America and Canada.
Man, that's great.
I'm very excited.
Did you, you guys had Neil McDonough in this movie?
I got Neil.
I brought in Bailey Chase.
I brought in Corbin Bernson, all these guys that's great, great actors and buddies of mine.
Yeah, Neil's amazing.
I was in a movie with him years ago that he will never remember.
And so, no, that's so great.
You know, we watched a little bit of it.
We didn't get to see the whole thing because I just started watching it today.
We watched about the first 50 minutes.
It was very interesting.
And I'm very excited to see.
It felt like an allegory for the COVID-19 pandemic.
You know, trust the signs.
We asked the ground.
We talk about it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, we do.
I mean, it's six months after the rapture.
So what's left is our Antifa members.
That's pretty much what's left.
Everyone else goes with all the non-believers and uh the chaos of the world, and it deals with uh, you know, some people are going, I blew it, you know, like my character, my wife was a Christian, my little kid was a Christian, they were taken, and now we realize all the years of her harping on me.
There's something about this, so I he goes on his own trek to find his own redemption.
But then there's people that were which will happen.
There are people, oh, it was aliens, it was, you know, it was weird, it was an anomaly, and no one wants, you know, but it's going to be uh, it's going to be interesting to see people's response to this.
But it's definitely darker and edgier than any of the left behinds they've done before, right?
And then if the government wants you to believe that it was aliens, what are they going to do to try to trick you into thinking that it's aliens?
You know, I loved how they know Neil McDonald plays a guy that exactly what's going on with politicians right now, talking about this new world order to have one government, one currency, and all this kind of thing.
So it's going to be, it's sort of, it's sort of prophetic that way, as well as being what's coming out of the book of Revelation.
And hopefully people go to this movie and they'll pull out their Bible and read the revelations and see how it sort of ties in with that.
So it's, we're getting pretty good response from people that have already seen the movie.
So we'll see what happens.
They're already talking about doing the next sequel and I get to direct that one again as well.
Oh, that's great.
So you are, you, you, you have been, have you directed a lot before?
Is this something you do on occasion?
Or yeah, well, I started directing back in Hercules here.
So I directed, I directed Left Behind.
I directed Miracle East Texas, which is coming out later this year.
I directed Let There Be Light, which came out about four years ago in theater.
It's a nice four-month role, four-month run then.
So I'm doing more and more of it right now.
I got another movie this year I'm directing as well.
Do you like acting or directing more?
I like acting more.
People say I can only do one thing.
I'll stick with the acting, but I do like directing as long as I got a great team around me to make me look good.
That is important.
Right.
Yeah.
Get your good side.
You have a lot of good sides.
Yeah.
It's like, you know, both sides.
Anyway, there's two sides.
Anyway, so three sides.
Three sides to every story.
No, that's great.
So you guys, and what do you have in the works right now?
Are you doing, you're just going around?
You're kind of talking about this.
I'm just a lot of Felicity Opens January 26th.
Go to leftbehindmovie.com.
That's leftbehindmovie.com.
Sign up.
And it's got the trailer.
It's got just put your zip code in.
It shows you what theater is near you.
And then I've got the Reagan movie coming out later this year and Miracle East Texas coming out later this year.
I got five movies that I shot just in the last year that'll be out either late this year or early next year.
And I've already booked five movies for this year.
So I'm staying very busy.
I'll be in LA coming up here in February.
I'm shooting a movie in LA and then I got one in North Carolina and I got one in Dubai, which I'm looking forward to shooting in Dubai for the first time.
How do you keep your family together while you're traveling like that?
If it's a big, longer than two weeks, they travel with me.
So, but now, you know, the kids, my wife, at this point now, because the kids are at ages of 21 and almost 19 and 17.
So, you know, they're the age now.
It's like, I don't need to go debt.
I'm sure they'll want to go to Dubai.
I think they all.
They don't want to go to Dubai.
Yeah.
I would be like, oh, I'd miss you too much.
I have to go with you.
I need to stay in the nice hotel.
Yeah.
I went to Dubai years ago and it's kind of like religious Las Vegas.
It's a very interesting place.
It's like a weird place.
Were you in a service over there or what?
No, no, I just went through.
Actually, I went on a mission strip to Africa and we flew through Dubai.
We had a longer.
So we were around and we got to go kind of hang out and see Dubai.
And it was an interesting experience.
Have you ever been there?
My brother was stationed in Saudi Arabia for a couple of years.
So he popped over there and said it was just unbelievable how clean it is, just reeks of money everywhere.
Oh, yes.
It's just amazing.
It's a crazy place.
That's good.
So are you shooting?
Is that a is what kind of movie is that you're shooting in Dubai?
It is a action thriller.
It's an action movie.
And then I got another one that I'm shooting up in North Carolina.
I'm looking forward to.
It's a really, you can call it faith-based, but it's pretty hard-edged.
And then Neil and I are trying to raise money for his Western right now, which is a modern day telling of Kanan Abel.
It's modern day because it's 1850s.
For Kanan Abel, that's modern day.
And it's in the vein of Yellowstone.
It's violent, but it's, you know, it's what the Western Westerns, you know, what the West had to be like back then.
Yeah, it was like the Wild West back then.
Well, Cain and Abel is pretty violent.
I would hope it would be violence, Kanan Abel.
You know, it's pretty true to the genre.
It kind of matches the story, yes.
Yeah, no spoilers, but no.
That's great that you're working with Neil so much.
That's really cool that you get to work with Neil so much.
He's a really wonderful actor.
You know, we've known each other a long, long time, and we always talk about it.
So we finally, you know, when I read the script and I, you know, they let me do a lot of the casting on it as well.
And I just said, dude, you got to play this role.
He read it and he jumped on board right away.
By the way, you cast Sam in this movie.
And she did a great job.
I know she's a wonderful actor, but it was just nice to see her on camera.
Oh, my oldest boy is in it too.
He played an audition for the role.
I made him audition.
The writers liked him so much.
They actually added three more scenes while we were filming.
That's so cool.
And he played a character named Connor or Colin.
I can't remember.
Connor.
Connor.
That's right.
Yeah.
He did a good job.
He did a good job.
Tell him we thought he did a great job.
That's great.
I'll let you know.
Was there a lot of changes from the original script to when it was made?
There was quite a few.
There was quite a few.
I mean, they wanted to make it more modern day in terms of what's going on in the world right now.
Jerry Jenkins, who's one of the co-authors of these 80 million best-selling left-behind books, saw it and he gave us a great endorsement.
He said, He said, This is by far the best of the movies you guys have ever done.
He wasn't upset with the changes they made.
It still follows, you know, roughly what the books were about.
It's just, it's just, they just added stuff that happened today that when they wrote those books 40 years ago, they didn't know what the world was going to be like then in terms of what modern USA is right now.
And then I was surprised that the protagonist and the good guy is a news, is a news anchor.
You know, I wouldn't expect a news anchor to want to tell the truth.
Well, that was true.
Buck was a news anchor in the series, wasn't he?
Yeah, yeah, that's right.
He was.
And he had a news anchor and an airline pilot.
But he's pretty much an agnostic throughout most of the movie, and he's got his own questions about it all.
But he's tired of the ridiculousness of the news and ridiculous of the not telling the truth and the covering up.
And so he's not afraid to expose that of how one side of the news is and how they, you know, they want people to believe what they want to believe.
Pretty much what our government's doing right now.
Because, you know, government's favorite weapon, of course, is fear.
And that's pretty much what happens within the newsroom, what he's working with, what they want him to promote.
And he did a great job.
The actor did a really good job.
Yeah, Greg Perot, great guy.
Really good guy.
He was just on the last season of the Walking Dead as well.
Yeah, that's right.
That's what I was reading up on.
Yeah, that's great.
Yeah, Walking Dead, great stuff.
Right.
I'm not really too familiar with the series.
I didn't read the books and I didn't watch the earlier movies.
So I did appreciate that I could watch this not knowing everything about the series and still not feel I didn't feel left behind in the left out.
Well done.
But you know, it's true.
You don't need, it's not contingent on you seeing what happened before.
I mean, it's pretty much set up that it's six months after the rapture has taken place.
What's the world going to look like?
And we can all sort of guess.
But it's, I think it's a movie that anybody of all walks of life and anybody of any faiths or non-faiths can still watch the movie and have a great time with it because it is sort of an action thriller.
Now, Emma, you had a question about a crossover.
Yes.
So I was wondering when the Left Behind series and God's Not Dead are going to do a crossover episode.
And I actually watched the movie and I saw God's Not Dead in the church.
So I actually did.
Yeah, that's when God is dead.
It was God Is Dead.
I was wondering if you were going to pick up some spray painting.
Yeah, when's the kid going to come out and do the night?
I know.
We need Mr. Harper to come and join the cast, but I don't know what happened to him.
I haven't spoken to him or heard from him in a long time.
Yeah, it was me on he went on Euphoria or something like that.
Didn't he go on and do some other stuff?
I think, yeah, he did.
I don't know what he's doing.
That's not good.
I mean, I didn't, you know.
We're Christians.
We don't talk about that.
I can't.
Anyway, well, Kevin, this is, it's, we are very excited for your movie, January 29th.
Is that right?
26th.
26th.
Okay, January 29th.
Well, it's January 26th through the 29th.
Need people to fill those theaters up because that way we can get more time.
Because I've always told people theater owners don't care what they show.
They want to sell popcorn and sodas.
So we need to fill those seats so we can get another couple weeks out of this out of this movie.
That's great.
And you want people to come away, go back to their Bibles and start reading Revelation for themselves and get an understanding of who God is.
This is a crazy chapter, as you know, man.
It's crazy.
It is absolutely crazy.
And you guys went out there and you told this story.
Great job.
Thank you so much.
We are going to support you and we love you over here at the B.
And we like it, especially when you're in our sketches.
So we need to make that happen again.
I know that was funny.
That was funny last time I was there.
So once again, leftbehindmovie.com, leftbehindmovie.com.
Also go to sorbostudios.com, sorbo studios.com.
And I'm taking, my wife and I are taking another group to Israel in May.
And we only need eight more places filled up.
We got 52 people signed up.
We did this four years ago.
Go to sorboisraeltrip.com, sorboisrailtrip.com.
They're done.
That does look amazing.
And I, you know, I want to do that.
Yeah.
The B people should fill those.
Yeah, just eight B people.
The B people should fill up those eight slots.
Come on.
Talk to Seth.
Put some pressure on him.
Hey, Seth.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anyway, he's not in here.
He's in Florida.
All right.
Well, listen, thank you, Kevin, so much for joining us today.
And blessings on your movie.
And we just really appreciate what you're doing.
So keep it up and say hi to Neil McDonough.
He won't remember me.
I played a little, I played a British rock musician in a movie called They Call Him Sasquatch that he will not remember.
So anyway, all right.
Well, listen, you have a wonderful time.
I'm going to go look at that movie now.
All right.
Well, listen, you have a great day.
Thank you so much for joining us.
Thanks, guys.
Appreciate your time.
All the best.

Happy birthday to you.
No, no.
Happy birthday to you.
What is this?
Happy birthday, dear Kaio.
Happy birthday to you.
Thank you guys.
Thank you guys.
That was awesome.
Really appreciate it.
Kyle's birthday, everybody.
Hypothy birthday is tomorrow or yesterday when you're listening to this podcast.
I'm turning 36, and this is awesome.
So this is a dwarven.
What structure is this in Lord of the Reddit?
What is specific?
Is this a specific structure in Lord of the Roman?
That's a gnome home.
Oh, it's not.
Okay.
It's a dwarf.
So there's like a dwarven head dice tower.
So in some like board games and RPGs, you can actually roll your dice right into the tower and that kind of randomizes them.
That's amazing.
So wow, this is awesome, guys.
This is so cool.
And some half-opened bags of poison.
And is one of those the all-female bag?
No, there's a crunchy cookie, which I saw this and I was like, ew, that's they got me my favorite peanut butter flip.
Oh, peanut MMs, no caramel.
No, none of the actual peanut butter ones.
These will give you just as much of a stomachache that those other ones will.
All right.
Are these keto?
No.
Yeah, the cookies and cream ones are.
This one has only females on it.
That's why I thought it was because it had the female character on the front.
But I guess that's.
I'm so anti-MMs.
Everyone probably thinks I'm like a communist or something.
But no, honestly, I just like, I don't know.
I'm more of, I don't know.
I just, I don't know.
Do you just put M's?
I think some MMs through the dwarf head.
This is such a cool gift, though.
Like a 3D colour.
It's really neat, guys.
Yeah, thank you.
This is, wow, that's incredible.
And it's so light.
You wouldn't expect it to be so light.
It looks like a way they've printed it.
Like a, like a clay molded thing.
This is so great.
And as part of the gift, they are going to play a four-hour Dungeons and Dragons session with me.
I've decided.
Cool.
Yeah.
Well, thank you guys.
That was awesome.
That was awesome.
I'm looking forward to my birthday tomorrow.
Do you have any big birthday plans?
We might go to a local old town restaurant in Temecula that I like a lot.
And then on Saturday, I am having some of my nerdiest friends over for a 12-hour long board game session.
Really?
Yeah.
That's a long session.
Even if you like board games, 12 hours, that's a long time.
Well, it'll be like, we'll do a one-long game that's two or three hours, you know, a big long battle game risk type thing, whatever.
And then we'll probably take a break, get some food, smoke some cigars, and then play a couple lighter games and that kind of stuff.
How old are you?
I'm 36.
Happy birthday.
36 tomorrow.
Yeah.
So that's going to be fun.
And, you know, most of my birthdays over the last few years, I've tried to climb to the top of a mountain that's near me.
Oh, really?
It would be a hill.
It's a hill in California.
Most other places would come.
Which one is it?
It's called Minify Mountain.
Oh, okay.
But it's about 1,600 feet or 1,700 feet.
But my elevation is like 800 or 900 feet.
So the climb isn't that.
Yeah.
Isn't that great?
And there's a cross on it.
Are you going to do that this year?
Yeah, I think so.
I think I'll do it tomorrow morning.
Nice.
So a couple miles.
It'll be fun.
So anyway, yeah, thank you guys.
That meant a lot to me.
Awesome.
It says pour the MMs into the tower.
So I thought you were going to say not at the end of that.
Ten times people thought the bee was real.
All right.
Now, so a lot of times people think the Babylon Bee is real when they you might have seen like your grandma or your aunt sharing a Babylon B article on Facebook.
All of us have personal.
And they'll get mad about it.
Yeah, they'll be like, look what the Democrats are doing now, or look what Joe Biden said.
So we went through and pulled some times that people have done this.
Some of these come from the Reddit.
There's a subreddit called Eight the Onion, which is pretty funny.
You guys should go scroll through sometime where they'll pull any satire site that people think is real, like the onion or whatever, and they'll pull comments on the other.
So here we go.
This first one is someone named Robin Pograbin, who is a verified account on Twitter.
And she shared our article: NBA players wear special lace collars to honor Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
She's uh, I think she's with the New York.
Yeah, she's a New York Times reporter.
Okay, so she thought it was real.
That's why we think she thinks it was real.
I think she ended up deleting this after people got it out.
Yeah, got it, got it.
What was her?
Did she add any comments?
I don't see any comment, but I think people were replying, you know, this is satire.
You know, this is satire.
I mean, she died.
So this is.
Okay, so that kind of confirms it.
Because I was like, what if she just thought it was funny?
Like, no, that's why I wasn't sure.
Because I also see, like, I don't know, Twitter, every little subculture on the internet, it has like its different rules.
But I have seen some like Twitter accounts that will put in their bio, like, retweeting is not, um, what's the word?
Like an endorsement.
Yeah, like, retweeting is not an endorsement.
I'm like, well, why would it be?
It's just like, but I guess some people would probably think that.
Like, some people use the like button to bookmark stuff.
Like, they can go back and see their own likes so they can see what they're going to read.
Right.
People will think the like means I can't.
Do you like this?
You're fascists.
I see.
Yeah.
All right.
So is she a, do we know anything about this woman?
Is she like a I'm sure she's a great reporter?
She works for the New York Times.
Here's one with a Babylon B article we did.
Brittany Griner flees back to Russia in terror after seeing American flag.
And someone shared it on Facebook with the comment, if true, you got to be kidding me.
Disgraceful, despicable, cussing emoji.
U.S. Marine Wellen, how do you say that?
Should have been the trade, not someone who despises the U.S., especially considering who they traded her for.
Give me a break.
Ugh.
Like I said, Biden and all of his puppeteers need to take a hike because they're all off their rockers.
Cussing emoji.
They're really mad about that.
If true, you got to be kidding me.
I think that, like, I don't know.
I just like, I just have like not wishful thinking.
What's the word?
I have like, I give people the benefit of the doubt where they said if true, but I think that it's hitting the mark of like, she doesn't even really want to be here.
And that's what the idea that this person thought that Griner got back and was like, and Rand flew back and he's like, this is what a terrible story.
And that first sentence is funny because they're qualifying it if true.
And then also saying, you have to be kidding me.
And it is a joke.
Yes, we are kidding.
It's not true.
And yes, it's kidding.
Should we hire psychoanalysis go through the answer?
And then they go on to be angry about it on the 50-50 chance in their head that it is.
In case it is real, I will be upset.
Yes.
Cussing emoji.
All right, what else we got?
Number three.
So this person shared the Babylon B article in Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day Address.
Kamala Harris urges Nation not to forget January 6th.
Ha ha ha.
And then the conservative underground or Keith Levy, I don't know, shared this and said, There are times I just simply cannot stand this woman.
She is an ooder failure and puts her agenda above everything else.
I think it's funny because I think that people get mad because, like, yeah, maybe the actual headline isn't true, but the sentiment is true.
That one sounds like something.
They won't shut up about January 6th.
That one sounds like something that Kamala would really do.
Because every time they talk about 9-11 or a national tragedy, the Democrats always do try to reference January 19th.
Yeah, January 6th, now it's worse than I love.
They keep trying to make January 6th happen.
We're all worried about it.
On January 6th, that morning, I was just sipping coffee and I just went, January 6th?
Did I ever forget?
Oh, yeah, we just passed the anniversary.
We didn't really tell you.
It's like, oh, my gosh.
It's just, wow.
And again, it highlights.
What is that?
Three set, two sentences, and you can't get through it without a spelling or grammar mistake.
Oh, it's so difficult.
People can't spell it.
An Uber failure.
I want to start using that phrase, though.
Did someone scroll the thing?
It's like a mix between Utter and Uber.
It's like a large, utter failure.
Or here's one.
Our Babylon Bee headline was shared on Facebook.
United Airlines kicks two-year-old off flight for refusing to say Black Lives Matter.
I think this was right after they actually kicked one off for the mask.
And a commenter on Facebook says, you have got to be shooting me.
This has to be the most stupid crap ever to be written by a human.
This has gone too freaking far.
A two-year-old can't say much of anything.
Ignorant.
Donkey.
Wow.
And then number five.
The Babylon Bee article that was shared was, Papa Troll replaces Chase the Cop with Carl, the Antifa rioter.
The cute little dog.
And the commenter says, if this is legit, then the world really has lost.
If this is true, on the off chance, I'm going to get really mad.
Let's glorify communism that kills billions of people every year.
I think it's crazy they even canceled it in the first place.
These people, who are few in the States, plus the media, but have the loudest voices, all in parentheses, are destroying the country.
Yeah.
Send.
You added the guy.
Yes.
But I'm sure they got into characters.
When they sent it.
Yeah.
Out of that character.
I find it so funny how angry people get when they're just like, they're putting it all into like their fingertips, just like typing.
And it's like, what?
Very stream of consciousness.
Just exit the app and live your life.
Oh, this is a great one.
Yeah, the Babylon B headline is, CNN anchors all poop pants on air to show it's perfectly normal.
That was shared on Facebook and someone wrote, way to go, effing morons.
How ridiculous is this BS?
Let's go, Brandon.
It's normal for grown-ups to poop emoji on themselves in Bidenism.
Three question marks.
It's not no way normal in my perspective, though.
What a buffoon, LMFAO.
Every single word was capitalized as well.
They capitalized the beginning of each word, which is always weird to me.
It's so strange.
All right, here's a Babylon B article that was shared on Twitter.
Supreme Court approves death penalty for people who use leaf blowers before 8 a.m.
And someone replied, I don't like these people either, but that seems very extreme.
I googled this story and I'm not seeing any other sources for it.
Thinking it might be fake.
I think so.
They didn't get fooled, though.
They said they did the research.
Yeah.
They're on the right track of thinking it might be.
That's right.
Snopes.
Did leaf blowers actually get approved for death penalty?
False.
Here's one.
The Babylon B headline was, new Netflix movie actually murders puppies to teach that murdering puppies is bad.
And I do like the Photoshop of someone holding a pistol to the head of a corgi.
Oh.
What the thing?
Someone shared this and commented, Netflix is really showing its true colors recent, its true color recently.
First 11-year-old girls twerking.
Now this is disgusting.
They did get the point.
We fooled them.
We fooled him.
I do like that Photoshop a lot, though.
Like, it's like, no, don't shoot the cute puppy.
Next one is the Babylon B article.
In bold anti-Trump statement, Pelosi rips up Bible.
And the comments say, comment number one says, that is terrible.
Hope she burns it.
The 80-year-old witch should retire.
Hmm.
Next one says she needs to be gone.
Third comment says, what was the point she was trying to make?
And then someone responded to that saying that she's an evil person with the like angry devil emoji.
And then someone responded to that saying, well, duh.
So two people who are both angry and think this is real are now getting angry at each other as they discuss it.
Yeah, and they were completely taking the whole thing seriously.
And here's a borderline one.
But Donald Trump, the president of the United States, shared an article, a Babylon B article.
Twitter shuts down entire network to slow spread of negative Biden news.
And he said, wow, this has never been done in history.
This includes his really bad interview last night.
Why is Twitter doing this?
Bring more attention to Sleepy Joe and Big T. Who's Big T?
What's he?
This was famously shared by Trump.
Do you think he thought it was real?
I think he thought it was real.
Everything that he wrote up there sounds like he legitimately thought it was real.
Yeah.
So this is before he knew what the B was?
We were assured by people in the Trump administration that he knew it was fake.
That is exactly what people in the Trump administration would say.
I read that that he thought it was real.
I like President Trump, but yeah, I think that sounds like he really thought it was real.
Like he knew what the Babylon B was, but I think he saw the process what it was.
That was one of his big problems, I think, with his Twitter.
In addition to the mean stuff, I think he would share things very quickly without looking at them or watching them or reading them.
Yeah.
It was very hot take based.
Wow.
All right.
Well, this has been who is Big T?
Yeah.
Sleepy Joe and Big T. Is that Big Tech?
Yeah, it must be Big Tech.
That makes sense.
I wonder if it got cut off and he didn't realize it.
Yeah.
It's like darn amount of characters.
Like it's said that anyway.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, this has been times people thought the Babylon B was real.
Don't let your grandma share Babylon B articles as though they're real.
But if she does, send it to us so we can make fun of her on the podcast.
Yeah, and it's fine if they share them.
Just know that it's just supposed to make you laugh.
It's all in good fun.
Yeah.

I'm Miss Adam Ford.
This is actually from the 8 to the Onion subreddit.
And Dan was looking through the comments and he found a Redditor that said, Babylon Bee is satire the same way that the kid that punched people in elementary school was kidding.
That's not our fault that the world is so crazy that we have to do that.
You have 1,100 thumbs up on them.
But I don't even understand that analogy.
It sounds like they're doing the old words are violence.
It's just 1,100.
No, it's 1.1k.
Yeah.
Did you say 11,000?
1,100.
Okay.
You're right.
Carry the one.
Yeah.
I thought you said 11,000.
Just carry the one.
Decimals.
So satire the same way that the kid punched.
I think that that is less of a.
So he punches someone and he says, I was just kidding.
We say, we're doing satire.
Wait, we do a joke and then we say, ha, it was satire.
We're making fun of the world that's already insane and making it like a little bit lighter hearted.
And we're the jerks for being on the polls.
I don't think clever innuendo.
The idea that our satire is hurtful or violence.
You know, words are violence.
Like if we say Rachel Levine is a man, that hurts people, even though Rachel Levine is a man.
But we say, oh, it's satire.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't believe that words are violence.
But we don't say kidding.
We say Rachel Levine is a man.
No, seriously.
Not.
Well, she's not anymore.
Sorta.
Well, thanks for joining us on the Babylon Bee podcast today.
