Previously on The LWC That's the new kid from Chino.
I heard he got suspended for wearing a MAGA hat.
Yeah, and he was the captain of the Republican debate team.
Yeah, and he got expelled for, like, misgendering.
You don't understand!
I'm not like you!
I don't belong here.
Ryan, I don't care.
You're sis, so what?
You're still my friend.
No matter what that judge says to you, You'll never be guilty of hate speech to me.
Thanks, Andy.
I'm proud of you, kid.
Hey, Chino!
Were you looking at my Z?
Book an LWC, bitch!
LWC, bitch!
LWC, bitch!
LWC, here we come!
Right back where we started from.
Louder with Crowder!
Crowder!
Yeah, Crowder!
With power, power, and more power, and more power.
You're a strange animal, that's what I know.
You're a strange animal, I can't get far from.
I'm a strange animal, I'm a strange animal.
I had to get rid of those.
Hold on a second.
That's epic.
This was actually my grandfather's pipe.
Where's the other one?
I don't want to crack it.
It went under the chair.
You're screwed now.
I kicked it under Hopper's bed.
Glad to be with you!
That's the sound of my grandfather's refinished pipe.
It's pretty cool, isn't it?
That's super cool.
We both get the cancer.
We have Nigel Farage on the show.
We have Rachelle Sonnen on the show.
We'll be fighting Fedora Milenko pretty soon.
And we will be talking about the recent Google debacle.
The video has just been released.
Let me ask this question of the day before we continue.
Obviously we're generally against government over-regulation, but you'll see these videos leaked from Google a little later in the show if you haven't seen them yet.
And you think of just how powerful these companies are.
The stranglehold they have on information.
What do we do with them?
And I don't mean that from an individual standpoint, like, we'll just don't watch.
From a societal, a regulatory one.
In third chair, we have Owen Benjamin, HugePianist.com.
How are you, sir?
Hey guys, good to be back.
Yeah.
That sounds like you're unhappy.
You're going to be in Dallas on Friday.
Other shows?
Dallas is sold out, but Sunday, San Antonio.
Monday, Houston.
Tuesday, Austin, sold out.
Wednesday, Atlanta.
Friday, West Palm Beach.
Come.
I've grown tired of your plugs.
Gerald Morgan Jr.
with What's Well, we have a really cool wine of the day.
We had a fan of the show send in a wine.
He actually gave me a gift for my engagement.
This is Bevan Wine Cellars, one of my favorite wines.
This guy's fantastic, by the way.
It's Patrick Ungaro, I think.
I don't know.
No, no, the guy that sent it.
Oh, I see.
And then he also sent something for the crew because he knows you guys like to booze it up a little bit.
A little whiskey over here.
Here we go.
Patrick, thank you very much.
I really appreciate it.
Yours.
And with Owen Benjamin's size, that will get him zero parts on Wolverine.
Zero junk, yeah.
We'll need more.
Are you on Wolverine?
Does it take a lot for you?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm a giant person.
Like, to the point where it's a hindrance at bars.
It's a loss prohibitive.
Oh, it's insane.
So it's like, let's go out and grab a beer and chat.
I'm like, yeah, like five or six.
So, you know, I feel something.
A little bit.
Well, you're like that too.
It doesn't affect you nearly as much.
Yeah, that's just because of my genetic profile.
A lot of Northern European heritage.
And Quarter Black Garrett, of course, producing Show Him Your Hood Pass there, Quarter Black.
Check it out.
I bought this yesterday.
Wow.
The fact that you went to a CD store is quite as I can possibly think of.
I bought it, and then I listened to it.
It's censored.
Oh, right.
That's the white version, don't worry.
But our lead story, before we get to Google, Hurricane Florence, obviously, due to hit the Carolinas, and some have already begun blaming Donald Trump.
Of course.
Good old Washington Post.
Why not?
So, well, we have to leave.
This is, you know, breaking.
This is Big News.
Yeah, Big News.
So actually here, an exclusive live coverage, is the louder with clatter, CNN weather correspondent.
Let's see what he says.
Why didn't Donald Trump sign the Paris Accord?
Why?
I don't believe that man's ever been a meteorologist at all.
I don't think so.
Do you have to volunteer to go on these things, like to be the hurricane guy or something?
I really don't understand this.
Well, that's like the Tom Cruise for that gig.
It's like the risky guy.
It's the guy that's like, do you want to do traffic?
It's like, now put me in the eye of the hurricane.
He's always on the edge.
That only happens in this film.
Even if this is really his fault, the effects wouldn't happen for decades.
And 20 years from now, maybe you can blame a storm on Donald Trump if that's even true.
It's not going to be three months later or five months later.
But the economy is Obama's, but the weather is Trump's.
And don't forget that it's because of moisture inequality that's causing all these problems.
I don't know.
By the way, I am the best at moisture quality.
Frankly, they call me the humidifier.
That's what they call me.
I don't call myself that.
They call me that.
How did this turn sexual?
In science.
What?
This is a terrible opening.
Nigel Farage coming up.
Wonderful to have him in the state following this.
Prestigious.
In scientific news, a man born without a donager had a 10-day This almost seems like an oxymoron, but it's not.
It's not contradictory.
A man born without a schmeckle had a 10-day massive erection following bionic phallus implants.
This comes from a scientific journal.
One of them.
Doctors created the bionic penis using the skin from Wardle's arm and nerves from his legs.
Wardle suffered through a painful 10-day erection following That's a little funny.
A painful ten day erection.
Following the surgery, and he's totally had to wait six weeks before having sex.
And we're laughing, obviously.
We're laughing so that we don't have to deal with the pain, because clearly, the Russians have hacked R2-D2's erection.
No, R2!
You're incorrigible!
We knew it all along.
I didn't realize until I was an adult that those two robots were, like, real gay.
What?
Are they really?
Yeah.
Oh, they were a gay couple.
Oh, they might have just been experimenting.
Oh, they were, like, they were an old, queeny, like, bitchy couple.
It's like, oh, look, I thought a long erection was kind of like the whole point, right?
Like it was painful.
Yeah.
Have you ever had an erection that was painful?
There's a spider that gives that to you.
Actually, there's a spider.
I can't remember.
It's like someone, someone send me the terms like something prabotasm.
It's some weird thing when it actually creates an erection, like so painful that you can pass out.
Are you serious?
And I think it's from a trapdoor spider.
They bite you.
But it's odd to me that that's the one part it would affect.
Like, you'd be rigid in your hands and fingers?
No, just one spot.
I'm real gullible, so is this real?
This is real.
I swear.
They're using it.
They're using the spider venom in some kind of new St.
Paul's Viagra kind of deal.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, like you're with your wife and it's like, oh, there's a spider on you.
It's like, just go with it.
Don't worry about it, don't worry about it.
It will go for days, baby.
It's a good spider.
It's going to give me a daddy long leg, if you know what I mean.
Now some people are going to tell me that I'm contradicting myself.
See, good comes from spider venom, and you wanted to blow up Snake Island.
I do.
I want to blow up Snake Island.
Blow it up.
Wait a minute, there's a snake island?
You've never heard of Snake Island?
No!
But it's got spiders on it?
It's an island that you can't go more than one meter without there being a snake.
And by the way, there are snakes that only exist on this specific island, off the coast of, I don't know where in... Washington, D.C.?
No, no, Washington.
And it's Snake Island, and they're like, oh, I have to study all these endangered species.
Hold on a second.
If it's a snake that only exists on Snake Island, that's a closed ecosystem.
Yeah.
Blow it up!
Get him out!
Get him out!
Don't blow up Snake Island!
There's nothing good about snakes.
There's nothing good about snakes.
For snakes have antivenom to give for big erection.
Snake Island!
I think it's near Sao Paulo.
Snake Island!
That's literally the most horrifying thing I've ever heard.
I've had nightmares about Snake Island.
Now I will too.
By the way, flying snakes on Snake Island.
What?
Shut up!
I'm not joking.
No.
No.
It's something like one snake per every square meter on this island.
Probably even less square-metridge, if that's a term.
And I don't like the metric system, even though I'm Canadian.
By the way, Canadians, when they say, I'll use the metric system, you ask, really?
How tall you are?
One point something meters.
Just shut up.
You go kilometer for height, you don't use it.
Snake Island.
Flying snakes.
Is this awful?
It's like a bad Asian film or something like that.
It's a nightmare island.
Like, now we have Snake Island and we have boner spiders, and I'm supposed to sleep tonight.
No, not really.
You're just supposed to feel better about yourself.
You're gonna wake up tomorrow and be like, oh, I got bit by a spider, I guess.
Feel better about yourself because of the people who live in the favelas in Brazil.
And, you know, they look at the favelas, they look at where they're living, and they're dirt homes, and then someone goes, oh, you want to leave?
You look for a better life?
Man, I can take you to Snake Island!
For you!
Waiting for you!
Is it called Snake Island or is it like deceptively nice?
No, it's not ironic.
It's not like Snake Island where you show up and it's nothing but sunfish.
It's snakes.
Because Iceland and Greenland was a PR move by the Vikings.
Yeah, I know, and I learned that from Mighty Ducks, too.
Finally, Gordon Bombay got his groove back.
Tess Holliday is calling out a website for selling a fat-is-not-beautiful sweatshirt.
This one comes to us from HuffPo, not quite a science journal.
But Tess Holliday, the site fashionista, UK-based artist, Florence Given, as well as many others on social media, denounced the $168 sweatshirt made by the brand LPA.
This was, I hate to address, but this was trending everywhere, of course, and Tess Holliday has actually personally called us out on this show.
By the way, we don't dislike big women, just Tess Holliday.
So the timing... Just the b****es.
The timing...
Oops.
The timing seems a little bit suspect given the release of Holiday's highly anticipated clothing line this week.
Dead by 30.
So that brings us to this week's Crowder 7 Plus 1.
Do not forget the one in the chamber.
It's important.
You don't fire a whole ton of guns, there's one in the chamber.
There's also something called Snake Island.
We've lost Owen for the rest of the show.
That's all he's going to talk about.
Focus!
The snake will be there for you tomorrow!
Then we do show!
Tomorrow, Snake Island, the beach!
So yeah, these are the 7 plus 1 top-selling items from Tess Holliday's new clothing line, Dead by 30.
Number 7, this is actually a popular show, I see their take on this, it's Kiss Me, I'm Dying.
Yeah, that one doesn't seem as though it's actually something people want to do.
Number 6, I'm Too Sexy for My Prescription Pants.
Dude, prescription pants is amazing!
By the way, that's a set up to do the Simpsons.
I think they were the ones who started that.
Number five, you've seen of course the I'd rather be fishing shirts.
I'd rather be eating.
Seems a little bit on the nose, but it really is all about the sale.
It's about moving merchandise on the clothing at this point because they can't move it themselves.
Number four, I had a massive coronary and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.
That's a little bit more effort than just going down the steep water slide.
That's good, that's good.
Yeah, I like it.
You didn't get more than a shirt.
No.
You'd think almost it should be at least... Are they scrubs when you come out?
What is it like the boy in the pajamas in the World War II thing that looks like you're wearing them when you go to the hospital and your ass is hanging out the back?
No, those aren't scrubs.
Not scrubs, yeah.
Gowns.
Ass with scrubs?
Gowns, yeah.
Gowns.
It's a gown.
It's the best dressing gown.
Number three, again from Tess Holliday's line of clothing, Dead by 30.
Number three, she thinks my mobility scooter's sexy.
That guy's convinced that she does, by the way.
Are these all like $168, like stupid sweatshirts?
She thinks my tractor's sexy.
Was that Kenny Chesney?
The country song.
The country song?
Was it Kenny Chesney?
I don't know.
It was something like that.
But unlike Kenny, that guy's not gay.
Number two comes from James Dean saying, live fat, die young.
Seems almost as though it's depressing.
She's Asian there, so.
Actually, the number one selling piece of clothing, the From Tess Holiday, which makes sense, but it's actually in Texas, of course, so it's been selling really well across the southern portion of the state.
Come and take it!
Well, that sounds kind of... Oh, well, okay.
And the one left in the chamber, this one, because it seemed a little off the beaten path and we didn't know how to fit it in.
You know, I Heart New York, it's a I Do Not Heart Scales.
That seems as though, yeah, this has been this week's 7 Plus 1!
You forgot to turn in the chamber!
Always.
Snake Island.
Snake Island, it is a thing.
And boner spiders.
I'm okay with the boner spiders.
I'm not.
It's not protoplasm.
Please comment below and let me know.
I'm thinking of protoplasm.
That's from Ghostbusters.
But it sounds like that.
Priapism?
Priapism?
I think that's what it is.
Is priapism?
Does that have to do with erections?
I think it sounds like it's made up.
Well, they warn you about these in the Cialis commercials.
You could experience something called, is it priapism?
I love how he's been playing it off this whole show.
I was just gonna say that.
He's like, I saw one commercial once.
Just once.
I don't know.
You are a terrible friend.
Because let me ask you this, Owen.
If you heard me this whole show struggling to try and find the word, looking like an idiot, going, it's something about erections that sounds like protoplasm, would you not immediately be like, priapism?
Well, it depends.
If I was pounding Cialis, I'd be a little nervous.
I know what it's called, but I don't want to say because then everyone will know I got boner pills.
Listen, no boner problems.
None whatsoever.
I didn't have the word until just now.
Let's everyone else just get really quiet.
Just let me carry on.
That's cool, man.
Put Gerald full screen.
Don't they use Viagra for kickstands for old folks homes?
So they don't roll out of bed?
Kickstands.
See?
He laughed.
I'll just sit here and stare.
I can't help but not laugh when it's funny.
I literally can't.
I made Owen laugh.
No, I wanted to laugh the whole time.
So, Priapism.
I'll just read the back of your labels.
That's my show.
I gave it to you before.
You get it.
By the way, before we move on, hit the notification bell if you have not already, because subscriptions on YouTube don't mean anything apparently, and join Mug Club.
You get the full hour show every day, not just the clips.
$69 for students, veteran, active military.
It's the only thing that keeps this going, and as you'll see in this next segment, They're blatant about it.
The left, we just talked about this with Norm yesterday, but to give you some context.
First off, it is also hilarious when you watch these videos.
Some hilarious videos from Google that show the leadership having actual tearful meltdowns after the election, determining how they're going to use their powers to stop Trump.
You know what?
Before we move on, let's just watch the clip.
Here you go.
This was leaked, was supposed to be internal only.
Oops.
I'm amazed that Google isn't better about their cybersecurity.
Here's the clip.
People are leaving.
Staff is crying.
We're gonna lose.
Thank God.
Let me take a break.
That was the first moment I really felt like we were gonna lose, and it was this massive, like, kick in the gut that we were gonna lose.
History teaches us that there are periods of populism, of nationalism, that rise up, and that's all the reason we need to be in the arena.
That's why we have to work so hard to make sure it doesn't turn into a world war or something catastrophic.
No, he doesn't need to... Catastrophic is...
The makeup artist and whoever was manning that camera.
Like, I don't know if he just... What's the security process at Google?
Like, hey, hey, did you make sure to put the, uh, the discs, uh, the camera discs back where they're supposed to?
Yes!
Good enough for me.
Thanks.
Look at the production value, though.
I mean, this is Google.
This is one of the biggest tech companies in the world.
Well, that's the problem when you don't live in reality, is you don't see anything.
Well, this is exactly what we were talking about yesterday with Norm Macdonald.
The conversation here was actually meant to be internal, right?
Behind closed doors.
Of course, Google lied about being unbiased publicly.
And now you see it with Norm Macdonald.
It's just that they don't care.
So these are public executions.
But this is what was occurring right after the election.
Back then, they still tried to keep it a little bit of a secret.
Now they don't.
Now they couldn't care less.
But yeah, that's right.
I thought you had a point here.
You were.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, I knew that there were thugs when they killed Jeeves for asking too many questions.
I think if he just shut up, he would have been alright.
I think the fact that Jeeves never actually answered any questions.
Nothing, nothing.
Nothing at all.
Nothing.
He asked me like, hey Jeeves, what is protoplasm?
I'm like, did you mean priapism?
Would you want to seek out Gerald Morgan?
Here's the way.
Wow, like that, huh?
You disloyal turncoat.
It's just funny, the left, they harp on about a sort of handmaidens tale, right?
This fascist Trump administration, this sort of dystopian future.
This is something that really, first off, I didn't make it through Handmaid's Tale, I said Handmaiden, Handmaid's Tale.
Did anyone here actually make it through?
I watched the first season because I thought it was about Islam.
Yes, I'm dead serious.
No, it was the Mennonites.
Clearly, it was about the Mennonites.
No, but it was like, you know, women are like baby machines.
They cover them up.
They have a stoning.
I'm like, oh, they're really on the nose on this one.
And then I was like, oh, this isn't about Iraq or Afghanistan.
I'm like, what is happening?
I couldn't get past the brick wall face lady.
Like, the lead actress.
Oh, for Mad Men?
Yeah.
Once they said, You were raped!
It was your fault!
Shame her!
In a circle I was going, Alright, you know what?
We're done.
I'm out.
Tap out.
Ding ding.
And the irony, of course, is if we were in The Handmaid's Tale, you can't say it.
It's a paradox.
Right.
You wouldn't be able to complain about it because you'd be in The Handmaid's Tale.
I don't know what we're talking about now, but I will say this, because they are actors, but I will say this.
This dystopian future, it can only exist.
It can only be created by the progressive left.
That's what I think, people use this old Handmaid's Tale, or what was it, The Purge, they did another one, it was like, oh, under Donald Trump, and he's silencing all this.
So allow me to explain the dystopian, horrible, 84 future can only exist with the left.
Think about it.
With a Republican president, And how's the left?
They still have the media, the entertainment industry, education, the entire tech industry, which, by the way, is unthinkably powerful, arguably the most powerful entity in all of our modern era.
So imagine this.
Let's take this different world here, because right now they try and paint it as though Donald Trump is the man, right?
There's a president who's Republican, so we're fighting against him.
Look, he wants to create a dystopian future.
Hold on a second.
Let's imagine a parallel universe where all of the tech giants, spreading their propaganda, And the left sees power of all major political branches.
What could happen then?
Handmaid's Tale, the liberal edition, LGBTQAIP or else?
I don't even know how they title it.
But imagine this for a second.
Right now, the left has all control over the information delivery.
They just don't have a president.
They're still able to say, look, he's orange, he sucks, every single late night show.
All they do is completely lampoon the guy.
I have no problem with it.
I'm glad that we have a free press.
But imagine if you combine that With the left running all branches of government and getting their policies.
By the way, hold on a second.
Breaking news.
We need to check back in with our CNN weather correspondent.
The Russians hacked El Nino!
I have proof!
Fake news!
By the way, that's not even an exaggeration.
No, that's not at all.
That was satire this morning, and now it's not.
Now it's not.
It's real.
Now it's not at all.
I was reading the headlines at CNN, and I was like, really?
Well, look, I don't want Republicans to have all the power.
No!
And I never want to impose my ideas on somebody.
I want to convert people.
If it's a good idea, then you can convince people that it's a good idea.
The only thing the left can do is impose their ideas on the rest of us.
That's it.
They're not trying to convert anybody.
And that's why there's such a parallel with Islam.
With Islam it's convert or die.
Because that's a bad idea.
Bad ideas have to beat you into submission.
That's why the lefts won't debate.
They say, there's no debate about climate change.
There can be no debate about hate speech.
There can be no debate about gender.
When your ideas are terrible, you're not looking to convert people.
You're just looking to try and regulate or actually kill them.
And that's why they're rapey.
They don't like consent.
No, but I'm serious.
They don't value consent.
They don't like free markets.
They don't like discussing ideas.
They don't like debate.
That's why every scandal with, like, weird rapey stuff is always some leftist on a, like, a roller, yeah.
After being on Spider Island.
Here's the thing.
The right always has checks and balances.
Wait a minute.
There's a Spider Island... Priapism?
What was the term?
I don't know, actually, I forgot.
He's gonna be like, you know when you look to see how a word is pronounced and it's like, you know... Priapism.
Respite, or whatever it is.
It's just gonna be Gerald.
It's like, Priapism?
Did you mean Priapism?
Yeah.
If my voice ends up on the internet saying Priapism, I'm gonna get pissed.
I'm gonna clip it out now.
The right always has checks and balances against them.
Why?
Because of the establishment media entertainment industry and big tech.
That's the thing.
There's always going to be some form of a check and balance on the right.
It doesn't matter what office we hold.
It doesn't matter if we have a YouTube channel.
It doesn't matter if we have the biggest late night podcast on YouTube right now.
It doesn't matter if we're bigger than Seth Meyers or a lot of these late night programs that have so much more money because they do have the entire entertainment industry in the media.
There will always be checks and balances against Republicans.
It doesn't exist with the left.
You know something else?
I think that when we talk about TV, film, music, news, YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, Facebook, Twitter, Google, they're all part of one industry.
I'm almost tired of you saying the media.
We have to go down this list.
The media, the entertainment industry.
It's one big monolith.
It's the information industry.
The misinformation industry.
Whenever I say misinformation industry, it includes everything that we've just mentioned.
Let's call it that.
Yeah, and that's why it's important we keep our family strong, because it's good to get your information from, like, your dad or your grandfather.
Right.
Because they can't be influenced by narcissistic psychopaths in Silicon Valley.
Yes.
Did you ever hear the Denzel Washington interview when he was, uh... Oh, it was awesome.
What'd he say?
You never saw that one?
No.
You know what I'm talking about, where the guy said, you know, he was talking about massive incarceration rate against blacks.
Yeah.
And he was asking Denzel Washington about it, and he said, um, I think we have to fix the problem with our family.
See, because they're not arresting seven-year-olds.
Right.
And the guys got really quiet.
That was it.
They're not arresting seven-year-olds.
Yeah.
That's awesome.
You hear what I'm saying?
They're not arresting seven-year-olds.
They just moved on.
It's so true, though.
It's like, that's the only way out of any of this nonsense.
Yes, it's true.
And your grandparents would be able to tell you socialism sucks.
Still, most of them.
Most of them.
Unless it's Bernie.
Yeah, exactly.
Unless it's Bernie.
They're gonna get it right, boys.
They're almost there.
Almost.
When people talk about it, they want to scare us into thinking that Donald Trump wants to
eliminate all of your freedoms, or that Republicans do, because Republicans, for example, believe
that you shouldn't be able to abort someone, right?
That you shouldn't be able to kill somebody.
So they're like, look, they want their hands on your vagina.
Literally, they want to reach into your vagina, imagine it, they want to reach into your birth
canal and strangle it.
No, listen, it's just we don't want you to kill somebody.
But if you talk about oppressive viewpoints.
You talk about, like you said, beating people into submission.
Isn't it scary to think what would happen the next time Democrats get a supermajority?
I'm moving to Snake Island.
I'd be willing to do it.
I'm dead serious.
I'd rather live on Snake Island.
It would be Snake Island.
The whole country would be Snake Island.
You want to talk about a dystopian future?
Okay.
Here's some versions which aren't that far off.
If the left had their exact proposals granted.
So they want to paint this hypothetical because Donald Trump says fake news.
They go, look, Donald Trump wants to create a law which will ban all meat.
No, no, no.
Let's just actually look at their proposed legislation.
Here, picture a world where guns are confiscated from citizens so that only the government has them.
Well, that's being proposed right now!
It's a proposal with an ad nauseum, but specifically, let's just take California, the congressman, Eric Solwell, I think, yeah, he's actually proposing that, and he's just even saying it in those words.
Of course, left-wing, you can go to New York Times, Miami Herald, Rolling Stone, this has been proposed for a very long time.
Here's another example, we're talking about dystopian futures, where there's the balance of authority.
Picture a world where we create pronoun laws based on ideology rather than any kind of science invented by those in power to enforce fines and, by the way, prison sentences.
It already happens in New York, California, not to mention Canada.
That's why Jordan Peterson is famous.
Just for saying I'm not going to go along with compelled language.
It's already happened.
Let me paint another picture for you.
A world where speech laws, with no objective basis at all, allowing those in power to jail anyone they so choose.
That world existing.
There's already that bill proposed in California.
It would ban religious books.
This has already happened all across Europe and Canada.
We're not that far off from it.
You don't need the girl from Mad Men and a Mennonite hood with people saying rape, rape, shame.
Let me give you another example.
A future where children are taken away from parents who don't want to inject them with hormone blockers.
It's already happened!
Jeez.
It's already happened!
Now combine all of those together.
Imagine some kind of a world where, okay, citizens don't have guns, only the government does, citizens can't speak freely, citizens can't use biologically proper pronouns, and they must inject their children with hormone blockers or face losing their children.
Guess what you have?
You have the DNC's utopia.
Americans really need to wake up.
This dystopian future, it's already here.
It's happening on a state and national level, let alone when you look to Europe or my home country of Canada.
This is also, by the way, why the court appointees are so important, because of notoriously lean left.
It's nearly impossible for President Trump to pass anything without having to fight the courts.
Again, we're talking about checks and balances.
These exist politically against any party.
They don't exist sociologically.
They don't exist in culture when it comes to the information.
The internet is kind of allowing that for a little bit.
I mean, you and I have struggled with this, where we lost our management and agents, but now you're selling out shows because of the internet.
Yeah, because America's awesome.
But now, what do they want to do?
They want to get a stranglehold on the internet and say, okay, let's put him on the blacklist.
Oh, they kick me off Twitter, they kick me off Facebook, I get strikes on YouTube for saying normal things.
And the left says what they're going to do.
Let's give him a little leeway.
Listen, I'm an artist who's terrified of snakes.
I have a right to make mistakes.
See, that's another thing that people have to understand.
You have a right to be wrong.
Yes, right.
Like, and that's the thing.
I've said things that, looking back, I'm like, oh man, but I believed it at the time.
Yeah.
And that's what growth is.
You have to be able to articulate ideas because that way we don't kill each other.
And the left wants us to kill each other, apparently.
Well, here's something that's a good example.
Again, it's fundamental to our worldview.
And comment below if you disagree.
I know I can already see people saying, oh, you're generalizing.
Well, we are to save time, dummies, because we're not going to do a five-hour podcast where we sit here and just get it.
At some point, we do have to make a point.
So yes, we are general.
Not all liberals and not all Republicans, right?
All liberals.
All, all.
Anyway, though, are any right-wing politicians anywhere in the United States advocating for laws that include throwing those who disagree with them in jail on the basis of speech, hormone blockers?
If you can think of any, let me know.
Comment below.
But what would stop the left when Google, arguably the most powerful tech company in the world, the entire misinformation industry, again, that includes media, Hollywood, big tech, is going to catch on sooner or later.
What would happen when they would be openly conspiring to enact this sort of authoritarian agenda together?
Let me give you an exact example.
Let me put a finer point on it.
President Ocasio Santa Marina Pinta Cortez.
Nina Santa Marina Pinta Nina Cortez.
I just can't say anything.
We'll just say anything.
Larry Moe Curley Cortez.
President Down the line, Nancy Pelosi, Press Secretary Chris Cuomo, and Advisors Zuckerberg, Dorsey, and Wojcicki.
We're not that far.
Did you just piss yourself?
Did I just hear you pee yourself?
Dude, I'd have the Braveheart paint on.
You should, and you should have urinated yourself faster than Gerald is going to empty his medicine cabinet before we go check during the break.
Because it's worth it.
That's how terrifying it is.
We'll be back after this with Nigel Farage.
I am going to be on the Ben Shapiro Sunday Special Show.
That's what it's called, right?
The Ben Shapiro Sunday Special.
Yeah, it's a big deal.
There's one guest, and we're gonna be talking about some things, maybe off the beaten path.
Different side of Ben and myself that maybe you haven't necessarily seen before, and I think he's probably going to try and make me cry because I saw his show prep.
Stop it!
You're gonna kill him!
Get off him!
Drink it!
Drink it, you cis scum!
It's full of asbestos!
You're gonna kill him!
I don't want cancer!
No!
Stop!
That you only meant well But of course you did What'd you say?
That it's all for the best Of course it is What'd you say?
That it's just what we need You decided this What'd you say?
What did she say?
You don't care a bit.
He's known across the land as Mr. Brexit.
Of course, you can follow him at Nigel underscore Farage, as long as they still allow him, on Twitter.
But we know him as the Sultan of SWAT, the PIMP of the UK.
Mr. Farage, thank you for being here, sir!
Great to be back.
How's it going?
Probably not going as well for me as it is for you because, my gosh, you have so much going on.
You just, since we last spoke, you launched an American podcast right at Enforage.com, I believe is where people can find it.
You're going to be going on a tour, restarting sort of the Brexit campaign again.
I mean, you have a double-decker bus you were just telling me during the break.
Yeah, big open top double-decker bus, loudspeakers, music, noise, colour, fun, get out and meet people.
What I want to do is I want to get the British public to tell their Members of Parliament not to betray Brexit.
Because if they do that, tell them we'll never ever vote for you again.
Because it's really interesting this, the British people voted to be free, not to be governed by these bureaucrats in Brussels, to be a free country.
And our gutless politicians are trying to water Brexit down.
So I'm sort of getting back into the front lines of Brexit, if you like.
Yes, well, the double-decker bus, it sounds much more like a Dr. Seuss vehicle or a party than it does a political campaign.
I'm assuming that's by design.
Well, I'll tell you what, the one thing that politics doesn't do enough of, we don't make people smile enough.
The subjects matter, but let's have a bit of fun doing it as well.
That's a good point.
We always try to do it on this show.
Unfortunately, not so much for our audience.
They just go, well, you know what, that one fell flat.
But hopefully it'll be better here, now that you're here with us today.
We were just talking, we just showed some clips before you graced us with your presence here, Mr. Farage, with the Google executives.
I'm sure you've seen this, where it was internal, and now it was leaked.
They were freaking out, saying at YouTube and Google, they'll do anything to stop the Trump voters, stop this movement.
And it's really concerning, obviously, because it's arguably the most powerful company in the world as far as information.
This is something that's been pretty important.
You've been at the forefront.
Conservatives on social media.
Tell us about this a little bit.
I know you're doing a big talk on this on the 20th, right?
Yeah, I'm doing a speech in London next week about this.
And I did confront Mark Zuckerberg recently.
I met him recently.
I said, look, you know, there's no question on Facebook, because of your algorithm changes, conservative voices, their traffic is down about 25% now from 18 months ago.
That's a fact.
You know, it's not hard to prove those numbers.
He insists.
Zuckerberg insists.
Oh, no, no, no, Nigel.
We're a platform for all ideas.
Well, they're not any longer a platform for all ideas.
That, in my view, makes them a publisher, which, of course, means they should be liable to be sued for the content that's on there.
Now, at the moment, We're not getting very far with this, but it's happening across every single social media platform.
They realise their own creation led to Brexit, led to Trump.
Without social media, it could never have happened.
They're now making us pay a terrible price for it.
Yes.
and something needs to be done.
Now, I'm normally pretty libertarian.
I hate the big state.
I hate the big state.
I don't want to be told how to live my life, but just sometimes you do need legislation.
And I think there needs to be legislation, whether it comes in the form of a bill of rights
for social media users, there needs to be someone monitoring
and making sure that all reasonable opinions get fair play on social media.
We cannot stand idly by with what's going on.
Two things that upset me there quite a bit.
Number one, I'm upset that you and Zuckerberg are on a first-name basis.
He calls you Nigel.
You've been on this show four times, I call you Mr. But you know, hey, listen.
There were other people watching, you know.
I'll bet you one thing, under his breath, he told me something different that we couldn't even use on your show.
I can.
Well, no, you can certainly use it, but I appreciate it because you're a gentleman that you will not.
You know, are you suggesting regulating them like public utilities?
Because a lot of people have talked about that state side, obviously as more of a libertarian conservative.
That gives me pause.
The one thing I think that everyone should be on board with, at least a first step, is transparency in business practices.
because you have conservatives who are paying to advertise on these platforms,
often have employees of Facebook or Google or Twitter running ad campaigns
for these conservatives and they're subsequently banned or their content is.
So what do you think the right steps are when you say it needs to be regulated?
I know you'll talk about it in 20th, but can you give us any kind of sneak
peek as to what you think? I think clearly judging, you know, what is liberal
and what is conservative at times is quite subjective.
So I'm not saying this is going to be easy, but if you have a regulator, if you have somebody monitoring, making sure that opposing opinions but within the reasonable parameters of democratic debate Just call him Mark.
play in terms of search and in terms of reach. And if as a user you're unhappy, you make
a complaint, you have a regulator that's got the ability to take action or to fine a company
if it seemed to be biased. Look, all I'm doing here is quoting my close personal friend Mark
Zuckerberg's words back to him.
Just call him Mark. Call him Marky Mark and I'm sure he'll hate it.
He says it's a platform for all ideas.
Well, OK, Mr. Zuckerberg, we're going to hold you to that.
Exactly.
And here's the thing.
They have to then respond with what they have.
They have one of two decisions to make.
Either say, OK, you know what?
That was kind of bullcrap.
We're not a platform for all voices, in which case we sort of have to accept it.
But they'll watch their.
Stock prices plummet, or they have to play ball.
I'd be fine with it if they said, you know what?
You saw what happened behind closed doors.
We want to use our platform to try and influence elections.
We don't like the fact that people like Farage and Trump rode this sort of populist, conservative wave and they used our platform.
We want to get rid of these voices.
If they said that, I don't think conservatives would be nearly as mad.
Would you agree?
No, it's the sheer dishonesty.
It's them continuing to pretend that everything is fine, that nothing has changed, when you can quite clearly see from the traffic that everything has changed.
They're being utterly dishonest.
They're being allowed to get away with it.
And the trouble is that most lawmakers, because they're so powerful, these companies, most lawmakers haven't got the guts to stand up to them.
Now, the one man who has got the guts and could really do something here is Donald Trump.
He's already appointed Well, I would like to see you there with him.
I would like to see you specifically tackling this issue.
I think Donald Trump could do it, but I think you are obviously very linguistically gifted
and could just make mincemeat of Mark Zuckerberg.
Mark, I'm going to call him Mark from now on.
I would love to see you there.
You know, my concern here with this is like it really is about the sheer dishonesty and
of course that's a moving target.
You know, an example with Facebook, I don't know if you know this, there was an article
that came out in Engadget or TechCrunch, one of these tech magazines, and this is when
they were saying back then, remember it was all algorithmic, well someone leaked a memo
at Facebook where there were 10 people to manually throttle.
Ted Cruz for president was one of them, I think Breitbart was one of them, I know the Chris Kyle Foundation was one of them, and yours truly.
One of these things is not like the other, and it's because, specifically, our content as a small website did very, very well comparatively, and we settled out of court.
But that was terrifying to me.
I learned it the same time everybody else did, through the press, because it was a leak.
Look at what's happened to Alex Jones.
Now, whatever you think of Alex Jones, whatever you make of Alex Jones's content, he's effectively been completely banned across many of these platforms.
Now, that is the behaviour that you would expect of a communist or fascist state.
So there are some real issues and concerns here.
I'm going to do my bit.
I'm going to try on this side of the pond to raise this issue, to make people realise what's going on.
But it is in America where it's got to be tackled.
Yes, absolutely right.
And one final issue I would like to bring up.
People talk about net neutrality a lot.
When people used to talk about this, net neutrality, I was saying, hold on a second, you're talking about ISPs as monopolies.
Interesting fact, Netflix, Google, Facebook, Twitter, they all supported net neutrality.
People need to do a little bit of research on that, and then when we talk about using these social media companies, regulating them as public utilities, they have a much stronger stranglehold on the information delivery than your local ISP.
A final question.
I hear that you gave President Trump, I'm sure, what, you call him Donnie?
I don't know, you're so familiar.
So close.
I heard you had an interesting gift for him recently.
No, no, no, it wasn't President Trump.
No, it wasn't.
No, no.
So, the boss man of the European Union is a guy called John Claude Juncker, or known as John Claude Drunker, because he likes a few glasses of wine at lunchtime, in fact.
He's pretty useless in the afternoons.
I thought that was common practice.
I normally go into the big debates there wearing a pair of Union Jack socks.
And he said to me in July, oh, Nigel, I like those socks.
See, it's first name terms with me with all these people.
Yes.
I like socks.
I said, I'll get you a pair.
So I presented him with a pair of Union Jack socks, and I've dared him We'll see how that goes.
I love how you correct me, and you rightfully so, wasn't Donald Trump, but then say, this man is useless after lunch.
I mean, that's, you know, that's probably a little more damaging.
I'm sure you two are on a first name basis, so he's fine with it.
But really, how much wine are we talking at lunch here?
Oh, this guy's a pro.
And coming from you, I heard a rumor that you obviously like your pints, but you drink, is this true?
I heard, you can confirm or deny it, that you drink something like a liter and a half of water every night you go home if you've had quite a few beers.
That's your solution.
Yeah, absolutely.
If you've been out, had a few beers or a few glasses of wine at dinner, you want to wake up the next morning ready for action, drink three big glasses of water before you go to bed and you'll wake up and you'll feel magic.
Now, the trouble is the doctors will tell you Farage is encouraging people to drink alcohol.
Well, I'll tell you what, a little bit of what you fancy does you good.
Exactly.
So long as you're still of use to people after lunch.
Take note, Mark.
Okay, that is Nigel underscore Farage at Nigel underscore Farage.
The speech is going to be Thursday.
It's going to be on the 20th and his podcast now for Americans and Farage.com.
Thank you so much, Nigel.
I appreciate you being here.
here. Love to have you back.
So much I want to marry it?
That sounds a little, that sounds creepy.
Actually, that's in a thing now, Objectum Sexuals.
What?
Yeah, especially considering how the segment went today.
I don't think that people know that you're joking.
But, you're a member, and obviously we support great people like Owen Benjamin.
You have shows coming up, hugepenis.com, but the way you support this show and our content, LoudEarthCreditor.com slash MugClub.
This show that you're seeing right now, often you see it on Thursdays, or you listen to it on iTunes, every day, every day, Monday through Thursday, and that's not really every day, that's four days a week, but then there are bonus shows on Fridays and the weekend, LoudEarthCreditor.com slash MugClub.
99 annual, you get this hand-etched, wonderful mug, access to the entire CRTV catalog, and if you're a student, veteran, or active military, just enter in that word, and it's $69 a year.
If you can't afford that, then there are other problems, or you're probably just stealing things.
You deal with that, right?
People steal things sometimes.
Yeah, people do steal things, but I wasn't joking about marrying this mug.
Is that not a... is that not cool?
We are standing by, to the where we are standing.
Alright, we're glad to have our next... we're glad to have our next... right away just coming in from the break.
He was he was hot chill chill move back from the move back from that. What what what what is it sound guy?
Edward you move back there you go now. I can see you reintroduce him. What did you just say I?
Said you remember the time. I told you I was gonna copy your podcast studio, and you were a real dick about it
I meant it to be flattering and you were like oh come on be original
I don't remember when I remember insulting you, but I wasn't a dick
dick about it. I mean, I was breaking the balls there.
Oh look, it was to the point that I didn't copy the studio.
I thought, I don't think Steven wants me using the same set that he's got.
Well, okay, so this is the set to your new studio? Is this what I'm seeing?
Yeah, well, you know what, that's for Aril and the Bad Guy, but yeah, that's what we
do for our backdrop.
But for my own podcast, yeah, I wanted a copy.
I think that you just have a really quaint, I like how you do it.
And I remember telling you that one time, thinking you'd go, Oh, wow, thank you.
And instead, I said, I guess.
It's just like right now, Betty White, you know, I like how it is, you know, it's quaint,
and you know, yeah, it's quaint, you know, it's low budget, it's low-fi, you know.
You're, yeah, I see what you did there.
So Chael, you have the show, it's at Chael Sonnen, for people who don't know, it used
to be Sonnen CH, so you finally got a handle on just Chael Sonnen.
I guess, however all that works.
You have people handling it for you.
However all that stuff with the interwebs works.
Hey, how was the Prime Minister?
Did he ask about me?
Did he say, like, how's Chail doing or anything?
Well, Nigel Farage is not Prime Minister, so your geopolitical knowledge... No one knows.
No, people do know, actually.
There is one.
It's not him.
Nobody knows.
There's actually no way to find out for sure.
There is no way to find out.
There's no way to confirm it.
He actually talked about Brexit and talked about what he'll be doing in the UK on the 20th.
I think he's the Prime Minister.
This is something I want to get your take on.
Did you see the videos recently that were internal but they were leaked of the Google executives and employees freaking out after the election?
Did you see these yet?
No, I didn't see the videos.
I saw the emails.
I saw the emails that leaked two days ago.
But no, what happened on the videos?
Oh, they're just freaking out.
People were literally weeping, weeping.
We have to do, we will do everything in our power to stop these Trump voters and to stop this movement.
So they were saying this behind closed doors.
Google, they were saying at these big tech companies when they don't think Which is odd to me, because they're a tech company, and they're clearly filming this for an internal video.
Do you not understand this is going to get out?
Google!
And they were saying that they would do anything they could to stop this groundswell, this movement.
As someone who really, listen, obviously you've fought in the UFC, and you've worked on traditional television quite a bit, but your bread and butter here is your podcast.
You have the biggest MMA podcast, I think, around, and you tend to be right-leaning.
Does that concern you?
Does it send chills down your spine?
You know, here's the thing about it, and to call it a crime would be an overstatement.
But to finish my thought, first off, don't commit a crime.
But second, don't document it.
Why they would film it, I think, is a little bit concerning.
And I'll also tell you this, the cover-up is always worse than the crime.
I don't know why these guys don't just come out openly and say, yes, we've got a platform, we're a company, and we lean left.
I don't see any reason for it.
You know, even when Zuckerberg went before Congress, he did say that.
under oath. He goes, look, we're in Silicon Valley and they got their own culture here.
And the most of the people that I hire are liberal. And I thought it was a little bit
refreshing. I just don't know. I don't know why they would hide from it. You and I don't
hide from it. Yeah. We've got platforms. We admit to it.
Yeah, but they have billions.
And you know, you're doing a show on a niche sport and I'm hosting a show apparently in
a nice quaint studio. So I think they have a little bit more to lose.
By the way, you're doing a reverse Wilson.
You keep cutting off the top of your head here.
I'm doing the be- Steven, you want to know what happened, and I apologize for giving you low tech here.
My laptop went kaput, and my laptop is what I always do Skype for.
I really don't use it for anything else other than Skype.
It's currently, quite literally, in the garbage can.
So I'm now doing this.
I downloaded the app.
I'm holding the phone.
Well, thank you very much.
You know you can fix those, right?
You can just send it to Geek Squad.
Like, you don't have to throw it out.
It was an old one anyway.
You know what?
I actually got a really cool laptop, if I may name drop and tell you a cool story.
I was sitting on an airplane, totally randomly, visiting with a guy who turned out was the president of Dell.com.
And I don't mean Michael Dell.
I don't mean the president of Dell, but of Dell.com.
And he gave me a laptop.
How do you like that?
So it was super advanced.
I could touch the screen, did all these really cool things before Apple was even doing it.
But that was 10 years ago.
So it was just time to go.
Quarter Black at one time was stuck next to the dude you're getting Adele guy in a plane and he molested him and he brought charges.
So there's a parallel there.
Also sells drugs at unreasonably low prices until you find out he cuts them.
There's a lot of filler.
Hey, has anyone ever told you that you look like Joel Edgerton?
I was just watching Gringo the other day and I was like, that guy looks like Chael Sonnen.
You ever gotten that?
No, I haven't, but I saw the movie Gringo, and I don't remember it off the top of my head.
I remember liking the movie.
It was good.
No, I didn't know that.
Yeah.
I'm going to take it as a compliment.
Well, yeah, listen, we were using Warrior as well.
You know, he played opposite Tom Hardy.
That's where they took two 5'8 guys who've never done a push-up, put them on the juice, and tried to convince us that they were fighters.
It was a great film, actually, but if you watch their fight training, it's always just hysterical.
Hey, I'll give you a tip.
I was in Dallas over the weekend at the UFC, and in my hotel room I ordered Sicario 2.
Great movie.
Really?
Yeah, it's not gonna win awards.
It's not like what they're looking for, but entertainment value, start to finish, two hours, something happening non-stop.
I really enjoyed it.
Here's a controversial opinion we'll get into.
We'll go back to politics here in a second, but you and I, I think both agree, you wrote about this in your book, that Chinatown was a better film that year than The Godfather.
I would agree with that.
Yes.
Now, why do you think that that is not what's accepted, really, in the film knowledge of
society, which is really, let's be—it's really, really shallow.
Everyone says, oh, you'll never make a better movie than The Godfather.
I remember saying, well, they made a better one that year, Chinatown.
Yeah.
Hey, you want to know what drives me crazy is people within the industry of filmmaking and television making love of The Sopranos.
The Sopranos was a disaster.
And Steven, I feel that I can prove it.
How could I possibly prove an opinion?
I feel that I could prove, look, The Sopranos was terrible, it was painful, it was painfully awful, but now that we have time that's separated, I will challenge some people when I tell them what a piece of crap it was.
And I have no idea why industry insiders, it doesn't matter if you're the camera guy, if you're the lighting guy, if you're an aspiring director, Everybody bows down to that piece of garbage.
And I'll go, okay guys, well there's been enough time separated.
None of you have ever, how many times you've ever re-watched it and they all stand there and go, well none.
Okay, well how many box sets have you sent out as Christmas presents like a lot of people did with Seinfeld, which was a great show?
None.
And how many of the people that worked on The Sopranos are working on anything today?
And the answer is none.
And I don't mean to be a jerk towards the people that were the actors in it, but the reality is that show is garbage.
And it goes down.
It's officially ranked the number one show of all time.
It's like, guys, that's just simply not true.
And the people saying it don't mean it because they don't even rewatch it.
Yeah, I feel that way about The Wire.
You know what, The Wire is actually the number two ranked show of all time, and I feel that that is greatly embellished.
I don't even think the production, and I did like the storyline behind it from Entertainment, I was entertained with Street Life and the way they did it, but I even thought the production level for where HBO was and the budget that they have, I thought it was a very simply made television show.
I liked it, I must admit I liked it, but the number two ranking of all time?
I don't, I got a problem with that.
This is a different side to jail that a lot of people don't see.
They just see, you know, usually fisticuffs, you know, or before some kind of a committee.
Let me ask you this.
There's a...
I'm sorry.
That was brilliant.
Did you ever see...
That was brilliant.
That was brilliant.
Did you ever see The Night Of on HBO?
Did you ever watch that with John Turturro?
No.
That's the best.
How is it?
I would say it's the best series on television in a decade.
Better than Breaking Bad.
Oh, yes I did.
Yes I did.
Where he got in the jam and it was the taxi.
Yes.
Did you like it?
He flipped the lawyer and the lawyer ends up falling in love with him and bringing him drugs.
Did they ever make a second They didn't, but it was one of those shows, it was so well done, that I actually had to take a break from it for a couple episodes because it was a stressful point in my life and it was giving me too much anxiety.
I always tell this to people, and everyone who comes back and says, I finally watched the show, you're right, you go, oh my gosh, they're gonna hang this kid, he didn't do it, to the next episode, you're like, he did it for sure, I wanna watch him Friday, to the next episode, ah, I can't believe this twist!
It is an amazing show, and it doesn't seem like enough people really give it the credit it deserves compared to The Wire.
I would fully agree with you, and that is an award-winning show because they did character development on that and the story was really well told, and I agree.
They messed with your emotions.
You couldn't decide who good versus evil was.
I saw one, not award-winning, but you will not regret you watched it.
It was just a Netflix Ozark.
They dropped the second season.
It was a good season.
Compared to Westworld 2.
I didn't finish Westworld 2's season.
Did you make it through Westworld 2?
No, everybody recommended it to me.
I'm not super into sci-fi.
With that said, I love Game of Thrones, but I don't think Game of Thrones does enough sci-fi to even qualify.
It does qualify, but it only touches on it.
I didn't get into Westworld, and people really recommended it to me.
Well, the second season was absolutely terrible.
It was interesting, and then we'll get back.
So, he will be on the show soon.
David Mamet, my favorite film, and I just say it's the most underrated film I would say of the last three decades.
So that doesn't have to be everyone's favorite film, but my favorite film is The Edge.
Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin.
You ever seen it?
Okay.
No, I don't know that I've seen The Edge.
This is the problem.
Go watch it.
Owen Benjamin here, he's gone for a restroom break.
Go watch it.
Come back to me and tell me that it is not one of the most underrated films that you've ever seen.
Here's the key there.
The billionaire, Anthony Hopkins, is the good guy.
That never happens in any film.
And this was years before David Mamet came out in the New York Times op-ed and wrote, before I was a brain-dead liberal.
He's a super, super right-wing conservative now.
I know, Glenn Gary, Glenn Ross.
This guy is the most prolific playwright of the Untouchables.
Plays at the Wazoo.
And this was before he knew he was a conservative.
He wrote a film in which the altruistic guy was Charles the Billionaire, Anthony Hopkins.
Really, really worth watching.
I know you're a film buff.
All right, getting back to the documenting.
Wait, I'm so sorry, but I must ask you, in any way by telling me that, did you just ruin the movie?
No.
Is that disclosed right up front?
Okay.
Yeah, it's disclosed right up front.
As a matter of fact, completely ruined.
And to put a final button on this, because you brought up the billionaire being the good guy.
In this case, the billionaire is not necessarily the good guy, but probably pretty well depicted.
But Will Ferrell made a new show called Succession, which people speculate is about Rupert Murdoch, but they've never said that.
But it is absolutely excellent.
HBO.
Do they speculate because there's a scene with Roger Ailes just motorboating Megyn Kelly in the green room?
That seems out of place here.
Hey, speaking of, we were talking about planes, private planes, I was on a private plane recently.
Do you care to share the story that you shared with me when we were discussing podcast studios?
I do not.
I do not.
I do not care to do that.
We're having some fun here today, aren't we?
We're having some real fun here.
I've been enjoying talking.
See, this is the beauty of being your own boss.
When people watch this and they get inspired by you, the thing they should be inspired about is not just sitting in a cool studio wearing a cool long-sleeved shirt, I must add.
You're going to have to tell me that brand.
You should be able to say what you want and not have to go into HR.
This is true, yeah.
I know you've made several trips to that department at HR.
When is your fight with Fedor?
The kids I like the best in school are the ones I met right outside of the principal's office.
When's your fight with Fedor?
Is that finalized now?
No one knows.
It's like the Prime Minister.
There's no way to find out.
And no one knows for sure.
But it is going to happen.
Hey, it's a month from today.
It's October 13th.
That's when the fight is?
Yeah.
Yeah, I see what you did.
You're very comfortable with the line.
Yes.
In Nassau Coliseum, which is right by you.
Now, did I hear that, Little Birdy, are you going to be doing a show that dives a little bit more into politics, culture, or are you just sticking with the MMA right now?
Because a lot of people know you from MMA, but a lot of the younger people don't know that you have a pretty long history of being outspoken politically.
Well, I'll tell you, politics is my favorite sport.
And for a lot of people, it bores them.
You and I are on the other side, but we really enjoy it.
But for a lot of people, they find it boring.
I've never seen a sport.
I've never seen a football game.
I've never seen a basketball game.
My uncle won two NBA championships and an Olympic gold medal in basketball.
It drives him crazy, but I can't watch a game.
I've gone to them.
I know what they are.
I can't struggle through it.
But I love politics.
I could tell you about the Senate race debates that happened in New Hampshire 10 years ago and tell you how great they were.
I just enjoy that.
I find it to be fighting.
I find it to be gamesmanship.
I find it to be entertaining.
I find it to be a battle of wits, all the way down to the body language and the way that the candidates dress.
I'm into that.
I like that kind of a fight.
You know, with your mind and with your body language and to captivate and win over and crowd an audience and inspire people.
For me, that is a sport and I'm into it and I've been into it since I was a little kid.
So it's just a hobby more than anything else.
Are you alarmed though, beyond the hobby side, beyond the hobby side, are you alarmed with what you're seeing from Big Tech and the banning on Twitter and on YouTube, on social media, obviously as someone who makes your bones there.
Are you ever concerned that maybe you say the wrong thing and that valve gets shut off because it's happening to a lot of people?
I'll tell you what, it has crossed my mind.
I don't know that I personally play that fence that close, that something like that would happen.
But yeah, I've been a little bit surprised.
I think you're probably talking about Alex Jones.
I don't know him and I haven't followed his stuff very close, but I think of him as a worker, I think of him as a performer, an entertainer.
And for some reason an entertainer can get away with anything as long as they admit, I'm here to entertain.
Alex Jones does not admit that.
And that's where the term worker comes from.
I threw that out and some people may not recognize it.
That's actually an old pro wrestling term.
But back in the pro wrestling days, the guys did not admit they were entertainers and they did not admit that it was a predetermined outcome.
They came out as though they were competitors, and they held the secret and went out to fool the world.
And that's called a worker.
And that appears to me, without being an expert on Alex Jones, that just appears to me what Alex Jones is.
No, it's not just Alex Jones.
They banned Gavin McInnes, and obviously we've had a ton of our videos banned, put in restricted mode.
You see that with PragerU, there are lawsuits going on.
And I know, listen, you deal more in the fight game.
Here's the problem now.
When athletes are trotted out in the regular to apologize for their personal worldviews, I was just wondering if that had bled in there for you, but you've kind of inoculated yourself a little bit because obviously you've been so outspoken.
We do have to get going.
Look at that.
Get a full shot here so we can see that wonderful drill.
Steven, do you want to really know why I don't care?
I guess I avoided it.
I don't care because I'm rich.
If you really want to know, that's what made me quit giving a damn.
I'm going to do what I want and say what I want.
If they don't like it, they can shove it up their ass because I don't need them anyway.
It's just for your laptop.
I thought you were gonna go kaboom and just end the interview.
I feel more comfortable if you slam-dunk me.
Kaboom.
Thank you, that was Jail Center.
We'll be right back after this, everybody.
♪♪ And now for the adventures of the White Privilege Boy.
♪♪ All right there now, Timmy.
I know you're a teenager, but if I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times.
You can't park your vehicle faced into oncoming traffic.
Come on, let's move.
Well, gee, officer.
I'm sure sorry.
Can I just go back to my car?
No, no.
I want you to follow my instructions.
Either get down on the ground or follow me away from the vehicle.
But officer, can't I just get my PCP?
Ah, well, you know, usually I'd say no, but you can make it quick.
Come on, get on out of here, you white rascal.
Oh, boy!
I'm at a free base!
Oh, those boys.
What pickle will they find themselves in next?

That was called the uh...
The Priolplasm Drowning Dance.
What was that?
Is that the word?
Was it prioplasm?
It was close enough.
I'll just need to check Gerald's purse.
Just look at the discarded medical instructions.
I will look it up later.
Someone will watch this.
It's in the comments right now.
It's going to be littered with whatever it is.
You know exactly.
There's a spider that bites you and it is a raging state of arousal and I think it's prioplasm.
PASM?
I don't know.
PRIOSPASM?
That sounds about right.
Thank you so much, Nigel Farage, Chael Sonnen.
I know we went off the beaten path there with Chael, but he actually probably knows film and television better than anyone I can think of, who isn't directly in film or television.
Obviously, his fights are televised.
But hey, we have a big crowd of confronts coming up next week.
And then we're going to have Matt Iseman, American Ninja Warrior host, in third chair.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
We have some pretty big things coming on down to Pike.
And my one-hour chat with Ben Shapiro.
Goes up this Sunday.
Oh, it does.
Yeah, I saw the little trailer for it.
I'm excited.
Oh, really?
There's a trailer for it?
Yeah, they released a little short movie.
They told me not to let anyone know because they said people think it's live.
And I was going, on a Sunday?
That'd be about as believable as it being live on a Saturday for Ben.
Yeah, that makes sense.
I don't know.
Anyway, but it should be a lot of fun.
And I wore my Ranger panties, which you can get at a lot of other merch stores.
And it made Ben Shapiro incredibly uncomfortable.
Sometimes I do think he might be, like, actually afraid of the male form.
Yeah, it's a little bizarre.
Possibly.
But here's one thing I've talked about with Ben, and I talked about this with Dennis Prager, it was in the Fireside Chat, and some people said, I'd like for you to expand upon this a little bit.
And I want to sort of go back to where we were talking about the left, the culture at large, but apply it to everyone listening.
You know, we kind of do this at the end of the show.
How does this apply to you?
Because a lot of, this is one thing Jordan Peterson has really tapped into, and I'm very, very fortunate to have this platform that we do.
I think one of the greatest evils today, so let me start with this, and I see it from the left, almost exclusively, is they've ingrained it into people with a brilliant bait-and-switch, by the way.
They equate envy with empathy.
And this is one thing I actually disagree with a lot of intellectuals out there.
On the right is this idea that the left has a general stronghold on compassion, and that the right has a majority stake in industriousness or productivity.
That the left is compassionate to the weak, that the right is cold and sort of hell-bent on survival.
You know, survival of the fittest, right?
The strong survive, conquering.
A lot of people on the right sort of concede this.
It's a lie.
It's a lie.
I do not agree with it at all.
I see modern progressive leftists as the least compassionate people, potentially in modern society.
Potentially in non-modern society when it comes to comparing it to other societies.
If you look at the people who are burning people alive, they're relatively progressive.
I know people think that's because words don't make sense anymore.
What drives the left today isn't compassion.
It really isn't.
It's tapping into envy.
We see it from everything from their proposed tax plans and their slogans of eat the rich to the way they score children's soccer games.
Namely, in that they don't.
They don't score them at all.
This is one thing, too, I hear.
Eat the rich.
You can see these on bumper stickers.
You can see these with the Antifa members.
You can see these slogans on flags.
You don't want to eat the rich because you're compassionate.
It's because you're envious.
No one has a sign out there, no one has a three-piece rocker that says, eat the rich!
Because they're compassionate people.
They didn't say, hey, how can I help out my fellow man?
Eat the rich!
It's because you're an envious little bastard.
Or a bitch.
We don't want to be sexist here.
Hashtag you too.
Inclusive.
You don't refuse to keep scores for children's sports.
Not because it's compassionate.
We do it to cater to envy.
Children will envy the other team.
They'll envy what the other team has, whether it's points on the board or oranges at the halftime.
I don't know if soccer has halftime.
I don't follow it.
I'm not a three-year-old girl or a homosexual from Greece to hear Nick DiPaolo say it.
So here's the thing though, this is what really bothers me, and then we'll get into how it applies to your life.
Rather than be compassionate to the team who's earned their stick, who's earned their keep, you steal their victory, you steal their points, and you hand it to the envious.
That's not compassion to me.
That is simply a political ploy to tap into envy.
People screaming, eat the rich, are not compassionate.
They're selfish people.
The middle class is another thing.
There was a study that came out recently.
I heard it discussed.
We'll probably talk about it next week on the show.
It's not disappearing.
I hear this a lot.
They say, well, $15, they did it in Australia and they're okay.
$15 an hour.
They did a living wage in this country or pick whatever province, whatever.
Just take your pick.
So it worked there.
It didn't implode.
Well, hold on a second.
Are they in charge of the world's national defense?
Also, we have the highest average income outside of Luxembourg, which is really basically a tax haven.
So, would you rather be the society where you have a ton of people with zero skills making $15 an hour?
Or would you rather be the society where people who did go to college, who did learn a skill or trade, have the highest average income?
What's more compassionate?
The middle class is not disappearing.
But there is some truth to when the left says that the middle class, most of you watching middle class, you're often left behind.
You know when that happens?
When we create policies predicated on envy.
Obamacare, great example.
Poor people got subsidized healthcare because they wanted it and couldn't afford it, namely.
Most of them weren't working, productive members of society.
Some of them not even legal citizens.
Do you know who got hit the hardest?
Not the wealthy.
They can always afford it, right?
But the middle class.
The middle class who weren't such screw-ups that they qualified for the subsidy, and they weren't wealthy enough to afford the skyrocketing costs to subsidize the premiums, the skyrocketing deductibles.
There's an irony for you.
That's not compassion.
That's stealing from the working middle class, and yes, the working wealthy class.
I don't care if you're wealthy or middle class.
I care that you're working.
I care that you're a productive member of society, and I want you to reap the spoils of your work.
We took it from them, we gave it into the hands of the people who are envious.
Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, let's look at that.
How often do you subprime low market?
Predatory lending!
Have you ever heard of predatory lending?
Like someone's going, hey, hey kid, psst, come over here.
You want a giant sum of cash that I know I'll never get back?
I've got him right where I want him!
What happened with this?
Who got screwed?
The middle class, the housing crisis.
People talked about skyrocketing home costs at this point in society.
I remember.
Yeah, it's true.
That's also because homes are twice as big, by the way.
When people talk about skyrocketing home costs, your house is on average twice as big as your grandparents' house.
But I digress.
But guess what?
The middle class Americans who responsibly saved 20 to 30 percent down for a down payment and they diligently built good credit, they didn't need the subprime loans.
Which the government was effectively enforcing, right?
When people say predatory lending, no one, no one lends money knowing that they won't get it back.
They only do it when the government forces them to make that loan and of course backs it.
Then it's free money on the table.
But guess what?
The middle class, the people who responsibly saved and scraped and lived diligently, they didn't need the subprime loans.
Who did?
The people who saved nothing!
The people who had no credit!
The same people who were envious of those who did the exact opposite of them!
And when the housing crash happened, and the envious, covetous old sinners were a year late on all of their housing payments, and the middle-class Americans, by the way, who had scraped and saved and were ready for the market to rebalance at that point to finally buy their home, hey, I've got money down!
Hey, I've saved up!
And the housing market was not friendly to me, so I rented for a little bit, but here's my time!
The government said no.
And the people who had no business being in those houses made out like bandits.
Was that compassion?
No!
It was catering to envy.
And so, this is one thing that really bothers... You know what breeds envy, by the way?
Weakness.
Weakness breeds envy.
Weakness also breeds untrustworthiness.
It breeds betrayal.
The left loves to vilify the strong as toxic.
Let me ask you, how many times... We've talked about this last week with Kevin McGinnis.
How many times have you been betrayed by a strong man or woman?
How many times have you been backstabbed by the person in your life at the backbone?
The person who's a little tough to get along with in your life, but gets things done?
How often have they screwed you over?
Let's contrast that.
Think about the person, and we all know this person, who just never gets their crap together.
Their finances, their marriages, their relationships, the holding down of a job.
They're in a constant state of crisis.
I know these people.
They leave everyone else holding the bag.
Have they screwed you over?
And maybe even if not, are they the person you would call to pick up your kids?
Are they the person you turn to when you really need someone to trust?
It is the weak among us who hurt us the most.
And it doesn't mean that the strong cannot be compassionate to the weak, but this idea that solely because people are weak, and I'm not just talking about your bench press, I'm talking about weak of character, this idea that weakness exclusively means worthy of compassion, and strength means you don't need it.
It's a lie!
It's a lie, and it's not that conservatives aren't compassionate, it's that we don't buy into that lie.
And here's the thing, if the progressive left wants to build a society that caters to weak people, to the weak, and more specifically, to the weak's envy, the left, they not only want a society, they don't want a society.
where strength can grow, right? This is what we're talking about. This is what we ultimately we talked
about this. We talked about the underdog theory that why do they why do they love Hamas when it's
in their charter to kill all Jews? Because they suck, right?
Because they're weak, because they're not very good. And so, all right, we're gonna go with them.
They must be in the moral superior, they must have the moral high ground here. But they want
society to be entirely dedicated, dictated, entirely dedicated to and dictated by the
squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching covetous old sinners.
The people who say, I can't afford the house, but I deserve it.
You know what?
I actually didn't score any goals, but I feel that I deserve that score, so could you please even it out?
You know what?
I never went to college.
I didn't go to trade school, but I think I deserve $15 an hour.
You know what?
I didn't actually purchase insurance before I got sick, I did not save up any money, and I'd like free healthcare, please.
Now, in contrast, strength is important to know.
Not all strong people are good.
I'm not saying that.
Strength can breed selfishness.
It can breed bullishness.
But it can also breed generosity.
Weakness, by its very definition, is incapable of breeding generosity.
The weak cannot be generous, even if they wanted to.
Hear that, Socialists?
Democratic Socialists?
It doesn't matter.
It's not even on their radar.
They're so busy getting theirs.
They don't even often have a second to think about how to help others.
It's why food banks go into poor neighborhoods, not out of them.
Of course, I understand it's a money issue.
I understand that people with money are trying to help people who don't have money, but it's just a good example right there.
If that's how you reacted, and you said, you see class and problems entirely determined by money.
The poor may not be able to donate their money.
Okay, let me give you an example.
But how often do you see them?
Creating non-profit efforts to, meaning the weak among us, people who might be down on their luck financially, but we all give what we can, right?
How often do you hear this in natural disasters?
Give what you can.
How often do you see poor people creating non-profits in an effort to, I don't know, offer free marriage counseling services?
Help with the opioid crisis among middle-class youth?
I can't remember who said this recently.
I don't remember who it was.
It's going to bother me, but someone can probably comment and let me know.
Someone said, just because somebody lives in a pretty house, it doesn't mean that pretty things go on inside of them.
I think it's what this person says.
I'm probably butchering the quote.
That really stuck with me.
The weak can't be generous.
They're incapable of it.
But the strong, at least, they can sit back.
They can decide what to use their strength for, good or bad.
And this is what I want to see.
This is ultimately what this comes down to.
I want to see more strong people out there.
If you're watching this show, if you're listening, and you're not doing something to become stronger every day, you're doing it wrong.
And I'm not asking for people out there to be He-Man.
All I'm asking is that you're stronger today than you were yesterday.
And that you'll be stronger tomorrow.
than you were today, and that'll be by a conscious effort.
Every day, you better be getting stronger, because the only way this world stays on track, the only way this world gets saved, is by the strong among us using their strength to do right.
So when I say that I don't have any time for weakness, it's not for a lack of compassion, and I hate it when people concede that territory.
No, I think that conservatives are the most compassionate among us, because we want to create an atmosphere that fosters strength, which we know breeds life.
as opposed to sucks it from someone's very soul.
That's what I hate about leftism.
I hate that it crushes the soul, the human spirit.
It's not for lack of compassion for those in need, but precisely because of it, is my point.
I don't want to see the strong having their goodness stolen from them, whether it's points at a soccer game, whether it's that middle-class family who deserved to get into a home that they saved for, and by proxy, by the way, stolen from all the people who could be blessed by it.
That's just something that's important.
Strength?
People who are strong can bless other people.
Whether it's financially... Think about this.
Someone who's blessed financially, intellectually, even physically, they can help you move.
Intellectually, they can teach you.
Financially, they can be the ones building wells.
So to steal it from them is to steal the blessing from everyone who is blessed through them.
And what do you do?
You hand it to the chronically weak, to the chronically envious.
The left wants you to think that they have a corner on compassion.
They don't.
They're not capable of it.
Because they're followers and they're weak.
They don't have a corner on compassion.
They have a corner on envy.
And you see it right now with Google.
You see it right now culturally with this kickback and the babies being put to bed who are screaming.
They're plaintiff whales.
Don't give into it.
Don't buy into it.
If you give into it, If you give in to the left catering to your envy, you're already a shadow of your potential, doomed to a life of weakness dominated by envy.
