*Painful Music*
All right, my friend.
Here we go.
I want to talk to you about something Have you ever wanted to climb the bell tower?
Do you know what that expression means?
How many are old enough to understand what the bell tower means?
What does that mean?
What does that phrase mean?
Who's the first to answer?
Let me turn this over to you today.
You're going to earn your keep today.
Let me ask you, what is the bell tower?
Are you old enough?
When I say, some people say going postal, I'm going to climb the bell tower.
What is that exactly?
Somebody tell me, somebody fill me in on what that phrase means to you.
It's part of our collective psyche, and I in no way mean to encourage or to suggest that violence.
Very good.
Archmaster, University of Texas, at Austin.
Not Richard Speck.
Richard Speck was the Chicago who killed the nurses.
He was the sniper.
Sound the alarm.
Texas University.
Going crazy.
Thank you, Alice.
I'm not going to shoot the place up, but to me it's like going...
I want to climb the bell tower.
I want to...
I want to scream.
I want to yell.
Orson Welles.
I like that.
Charles Whitman.
Thank you.
Who, by the way, Charles Whitman, upon autopsy, they found a very large tumor.
Quasimodo.
Thank you, Steve.
Hi.
Quasimodo.
Very good.
You're very funny.
Oh, by the way, Brian Griffin was the same one who said that before.
It's not just the first one.
This morning I started off and I just had such wonderful plans.
Such wonderful plans.
Wonderful.
Yesterday our coffee machine finally died.
And no coffee, not good.
It's my only...
Vice.
Yeah.
You know, no hooch, no drugs, no nothing.
Pretty clean, pretty clean, pretty clean.
You know, eating or whatever.
Except for coffee.
The other day, this thing just died.
And I like those Keurig things.
I'm sorry I like them.
Wow, we got that gravity crap.
We don't have time for that.
I don't have time.
I'm going to put the thing in.
I mean, that's it.
So yesterday, we decided to go to Bed Bath& Beyond.
Okay?
Took the Yugo.
It's a stretch.
Into Bed, Bath, and Beyond.
They were down 23%.
What was it, 23% yesterday?
23%.
They had the chairman of Bed, Bath, and I'm wondering, why did it go down 23%?
Well, have you been in one lately?
Have you seen who they've got working there?
Have you?
The front line?
My God!
I mean, what is it?
And it's not just one place.
Customer service.
It's just the attitude.
They hate you.
They just hate you.
It's one of these things where you're...
Do you have a coupon?
Just a minute.
Can I get my phone here?
The Wi-Fi.
I've got to get my email.
I've got to do this.
I've got to do that.
Oh, I lost it.
And they're like this.
Rolling their eyes.
And then they have these people who decide to wear a mask here.
Their nose.
What is...
I want to do a show.
And I'm sure we used to love Bed Bath.
Loved it.
I can walk in and smell.
It was just...
It was delightful.
Then all of a sudden it started getting smaller and smaller and smaller.
And then they start putting in these devices for you to start checking out.
You ever done that one?
You ever go into like a CVS?
And there's this, you want to use this?
And the other day I bought something that was so light.
You have to put it on the bagging or the checkout area.
You put it down.
And if it doesn't register, you have to call the person.
And this person comes sliding over with the, you know, whatever this barbiturate, they just took it off.
They come in with this.
This is to help you.
But it was so light, I had to like throw it down for it to register.
It didn't register.
Now this person walks over helping me lose their job.
Let me understand this now.
They're helping me destroy their job and their livelihood.
Who are these people?
Who are these people?
What happened to customer service?
Name it.
Go into a CVS, you go into a, I don't know, whatever, and you make, you ready for this?
You're going to love this.
There are people, because we have a lot of friends in the retail business, there are people who, if certain demographics of folks, I'll leave it at that, come in and decide just to take a big garbage bag and just scoop everything off of the shelf into a bag and take off.
You know what?
Non-demographic members are doing, they're doing the same thing.
Figuring, if they can do it, I can do it.
How about that?
What is the matter?
I need a MyPillow.
We'll get to that in a moment, Donald.
Brian Griffin, Wolksters and Oldsters.
Home Depot.
I said, yeah, you need.
Home Depot does that.
I told the lady who asked me to do self-check.
Check out that if she made me use it, I would steal something.
So she ended up doing it for me.
Shouldn't we get a discount if we ring up our own items?
Alphonse?
Absolutely true!
Why is that?
Huh?
And didn't Bed Bath Give Mike Lindell the boot?
Now I need this coffee thing.
I mean, I'm sorry.
This is it.
This is it.
You know who I would hire?
Guess who I would hire?
The elderly.
The elderly.
People who are retired, they care about that.
They have this thing called a work ethic.
You ever notice that?
You notice that?
Look at this.
Haven't patronized B&B since they stopped selling my pillow.
I'm with you.
Laura says, I love self-checkout.
You know what?
Sometimes it's, oh and now you gotta bring the bag.
You gotta bring your own stuff.
And you gotta, oh my.
Remember Publix.
I'm from Florida.
And Publix used to be this, where shopping is a pleasure.
My mother, Loved to go to Publix.
I swear to God, we went to Publix just to go there.
I don't even know if you wanted anything.
Big aisles!
Because in New York, you had little tiny aisles.
But anyway, it's kind of nicer.
You know, you knew the produce guy, and you knew this.
And Publix decided they were going to hire the...
Not mentally.
Handicap.
That's not terrible.
But people with Down Syndrome or people, to be bag boys.
They took your bags, took your stuff out.
They were terrific.
And then the elderly came.
Elderly were the best.
They wore a tie.
They cared.
They liked people.
It was wonderful.
There's a work ethic.
Yes, look at this.
Donald says, workers want stimulus money.
What is it?
How do we, do you have, I'm noticing, I'm not, look at Publix is awesome.
It's true.
It's true.
Now, I don't know about you, but I guarantee you, if I had a place, you know, years ago there was a place called Wegmans, and Wegmans used to be this place that...
If it was in your neighborhood, it was in Rochester, people would just go to the Wegmans.
It was before these stores kind of got fancy.
I know in California they had them.
You know, these places with piano players.
I mean, it was only something.
Now we have the lowest of the low.
Okay?
The lowest of the world.
Crystal says Wally World.
Walmart, upstate New York is beautiful.
Home Depot as well, out of this shitty.
There's something about this.
There's this, we are creating this, this, I don't even know.
Let's start.
What is it?
Where is it?
Where is the customer?
So anyway, so today, Today, I call up and I was going to do something very, very simple.
I do my stuff.
I do my Lionel Media.
You know I have this wonderful, wonderful piece of my subscriber stuff for Lionel Media and I do that separate from this.
This is for the subscribers.
I'll put a link up for you right there for that one.
It's cheaper than the price of a GooGaw.
You know what a GooGaw is?
G-E-W-G-A-W?
Look it up.
So anyway, I started off today and I had my...
whatever it is.
This guy sends me a bunch of PDF files.
It's an accountant.
He sends me this stuff.
I can't get into it.
What the hell's going on here?
I can't get into it.
Then I look at my web by internet.
I do a speed test.
It's dead.
I mean, what's going on here?
I try to call the folks.
Happens to be Verizon.
They take the worst music you've ever heard to get you off the phone.
The worst of the worst is GoDaddy.
Oh, dear God.
Down by the riverside.
I hear that in my head.
I'm going to climb the bell tower.
No human being.
We have a lot of calls this morning.
No, you don't have a lot of calls this morning.
You don't have enough people.
What the hell's the matter with you?
You don't have too many calls.
This is customer service.
You've got to have enough people.
Don't tell me.
Estimated time is between 25 and 45 minutes.
Screw you.
Get more people.
Get more people.
Or we can call you back at a separate time.
I like that.
I like that one.
I like that.
Okay, fine.
Call me.
And listen to this music.
And then you...
So I started off with this great idea.
I'm going to get all this stuff done.
And I am nothing but sidelined by complete and total crap.
And I don't want to sound like these old people that I hated when I was a kid.
You kids today.
I'm telling you.
Have you ever met somebody...
Who has met a teenager who came up with the F word?
The F bomb.
And by the way, the F bomb, no need to go into it.
It's the S bomb, which is far more prolific.
But I digress.
They discovered the F word.
And then they discovered weed.
They say, do you know who we are?
We may look...
You know, like a bunch of old farts, but we remember Woodstock.
I was 11, but I remember it.
We're from around these parts.
What is going on here?
We go to one particular store where they have one woman, one girl, woman, she is...
This is, this is, she is, they call her high, high functioning, what is it?
High functioning autistic.
High level, high functioning, high functioning.
Let me tell you something.
I found out she never misses a day.
She can be, she can be a little rough.
When she's not getting enough people, she'll stand in the aisle and say, come on over here!
She barks.
So the manager says, excuse me, Ramona, whatever her name is.
Inside voice.
Alright.
Okay.
She goes to work every single day.
Never misses a day.
Snowstorm, rainstorm.
She's never missed.
One day there was a, you know we have the water.
The water you pick up.
You know, they have bottled water.
34 packs, whatever it is.
I try to be a sport and pick it up out of the basket to put it on the conveyor belt.
She goes, you don't have to pick that up!
I've got the gun!
I've got the gun?
Here's this woman yelling, I've got the gun.
She may have a gun.
That's okay.
Trying to help.
That's okay.
But you know what?
She's there.
What happened to this?
What happened to this one?
What happened to this one?
I don't know this.
I had a high-functioning boss one time, Franco.
What does that mean?
Can you be high-functioning and not autistic or non-spectrum?
I don't understand that.
These words.
Something is so weird.
You're so strange.
I was telling somebody the other day, they have these things, by the way, called radio interns.
It's very, very good.
And I told one day, I said, when you get into a place, become indispensable.
Okay?
Do you understand this?
Be indispensable.
Be the nicest person anybody's ever seen.
Do more than they ask you to.
That's it.
Okay.
Now, I don't know where I fit in.
Somebody help me.
Do you know where you fit in?
Do you know where you fit in?
You mentioned Mike Lindell.
Let me talk about Mike Lindell for a moment.
Now, I'm not trying to sell you something because of his politics.
But Mike Lindell, every time I see him, I don't know about you, but don't you do this?
He's so happy.
He's got this pillow, the first factory, he's stitching it.
This is the American way.
This guy's my hero.
And you need sleep.
And what does he do?
Pillows, for God's sake.
So what do they do?
These bastards are cutting them out of everything.
They don't want your pillow anymore.
You've got more crap in these stores and you don't want the best pillow there is?

Okay?
Okay.
I love that guy.
I used to do a show, I used to do one time, I've got to tell you a story.
I was on WABC and I have always been, I've been selling stuff forever because I love, I love capitalism and I love merchandising and I love the idea of selling something.
I love, I love, I love the idea of capitalism for lack of a better word.
One time, by the way, I can tell you a story.
My first ad ever was a thing called Linkscom Paging.
It was when I was at WFLA.
And I knew the owners and they were great.
They said, do whatever you want.
It was my first ad.
First ever on the radio.
This must have been 88. I don't know.
They said, do whatever you want.
I said, okay.
So this was the ad.
It starts like this.
Do not call 251...
whatever.
Do not call them.
I'm telling you right now.
Do not call this number.
I know what you're doing.
You're going to say, yeah, I'm going to call.
No, you're not.
Trust me.
Don't do it.
You don't want to talk to these people.
You don't want to talk to these people.
What is it?
Don't call them.
Do not call.
Do not do this.
I better not hear about this.
Got a call after the show.
The owner says, what did you do?
He said, we got calls all day.
People say, what is this?
What is this?
He said, just keep doing it.
Okay.
So then I said, now listen.
If you call these people, they're going to come to your house.
Don't.
Do you have any kids there?
Or silverware?
Don't let them in.
Believe me.
Oh, they look normal, but they're not.
Don't call.
Two, five, blah, blah.
Then I made up a story how they got into it.
It was a pager.
Kids don't even know what that is.
They're a pager.
So what I did was I did this thing where I said they were in prison together and they would tap on the wall and have these signals and they got into communications and all this kind of stuff.
You mentioned my friend Bruce from WABC.
I had the best Commercial ever.
Sold more of these things than ever.
It was called collage.
It was a bunch of CDs you would play that would relax you.
Along with a mask.
You know, one of those sleeping masks, like Arlene Francis, you know what I mean?
So I said, well what is this?
He said, well it's a...
It's a relaxing thing.
And I said, okay.
So I said, can I use it?
He goes, do whatever you want.
I said, okay, this is WABC.
Now, they were so uptight.
When I first got here, they were so absolutely uptight.
They didn't know, because I came from J.Core and Randy Michael School of Radio, and I did whatever I wanted.
I mean, they didn't know what to do.
They seriously didn't.
This guy's nuts.
This guy, they thought I was crazy.
Because they were kind of uptight.
So I started off with this.
I said, you come home at night and you've had a hard day.
So what do you do?
You put on collage.
And they play the music.
Collage.
Put down the bottle.
Put down the hypodermic.
There's no reason to do the barbiturates.
Use collage.
Feel it.
And they would honor this.
And people loved it.
I think they sold it at Barnes& Noble someplace.
It was like four or five DVDs with a mask.
Loved it.
Loved it.
Loved selling it.
People bought it.
They believed it.
And that's America.
That's America.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
That is America.
And let me tell you something.
This is the most important thing in the world.
And I mean this.
You have to recommend that which you believe in.
That's all.
Look at this.
I can attest.
I have these sheets.
They're awesome.
Thank you.
Look at this.
My pillow guy should rescue...
Bed Bath& Beyond from pending bankruptcy.
That's right, Mark.
Absolutely.
Did you ever think of uploading one of your cutting room shows?
No.
Now let's see why.
Well, nobody will come.
There's no...
It kind of...
How do I say this?
It kind of, for lack of a better word, it kind of, oh, what's the word?
It kind of defeats the purpose, as it were.
Do you remember that one?
I don't think so.
So anyway, let's move on, shall we?
Now let me explain something.
Right now we have, it's 131 days until the midterms.
131 days.
What's going to happen?
What do you think is going to happen?
Anybody?
What do you think is going to happen?
What?
Well, I'll tell you this much.
The Republicans are doing nothing.
Fox News, from what people are showing me and telling me, is so afraid of doing anything.
That even remotely could be construed as liking Donald Trump?
It is beyond anything I have ever seen.
Why is that?
What happened?
Why is it that they're talking about Donald Trump?
This crazy son of a bitch thinks...
Huh?
But they're so scared.
What are you talking about?
Stop saying they stole the election!
Who in the F do you think you are saying you want...
Who are you?
Who do you think you are?
Who?
Shut up with that!
Shut up!
Excuse me, is this Neil Cavuto?
That's right, I'm Neil Cavuto!
Shut up!
Brett Baer, would you shut up?
Is this Fox News?
What's going on here?
Shut up!
Don't talk about that!
January 6th is great.
And how about that Cassidy Hutchinson?
You don't believe that crap, do you?
Shut up!
Shut up!
And Rudy Giuliani, shut up!
What the hell's going on here?
Who are you people?
What's going on?
What is happening?
I don't understand these people.
I understand there's lawsuits.
I understand some people went a little bit, perhaps a little nutso when it came to voting this and that.
But come on!
Are you watching this crap?
Look at this.
Cosperoni says, Tucker's the last one standing.
I only watch one hour a day.
The rest can go you know where.
Go where?
The rest can go you know where.
I don't know where that is.
You don't mean hell, do you?
Here he is talking to Bolsonaro in Brazil.
Oh, that's going over great.
Can you imagine walking up the halls of Fox?
Who's Bolsonaro?
Who?
What team is he playing?
No, Brazil.
What?
Brazil.
Brazil?
Remember the old joke where George W. Bush says, Mr. President, did you hear the news?
Three Brazilian soldiers were killed.
He goes, oh my God, that's terrible!
By the way, how many in a Brazilian?
You understand what Brazil is, and I don't think Tuck is going to be talking about this.
Brazil is bricks.
Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa.
Did you hear, by the way, Putin from St. Petersburg?
No.
Did you hear his statement?
No.
Did you hear about the BRICS meeting with China where they all hosted?
No.
Absolutely not.
Do they have General Keane on again?
Let's bring him out.
Hey, General, let's talk about war.
You know, I was a four-star.
Yes, yes, we understand.
And now I work for the Institute for the Study of War.
Guess what I'm pushing?
War?
Yes.
Victoria Nuland.
That's right.
That's me.
So God bless Tucker, because this is such, this Russian thing.
Let me stop for a second.
Let me stop for a second.
Did you hear yesterday Anthony Blinken?
Anthony Blinken, did you hear that?
Did you hear that?
Food emergencies.
Did you hear that?
Who else did it?
Anthony Blinken.
Food insecurity.
Food insecurity.
Around the world.
Oh yeah, not here.
No, no, no.
No, grain.
Right.
The grain centers of the world, Russia and Ukraine, complete.
Everybody's freaking out.
Not us here.
No.
By the way, did the baby formula business, did that get better?
I don't know.
Whatever happened to the truckers?
Remember the truckers?
Whatever happened to these people?
I don't know.
What about the yellow vests in Paris?
I don't know.
What about the Je suis Charlie?
Do they go away?
What about ISIS-K?
Oh yeah, that's right.
We go through this.
Remember when COVID started and all of a sudden people said, we're out of toilet paper.
Why?
I don't know.
What does COVID have to do with toilet paper?
I don't know.
What are you going for toilet?
Why not scotch towels?
I say scotch towels, like scotch tape.
That's my Xerox.
Paper towels?
But toilet paper.
It's the most incredible thing I've ever seen in my life.
How do I say this?
We just forget everything.
We don't care about anything anymore.
It's the most incredible thing I've ever seen.
Well, I want to talk to you about another great sponsor.
And this is the one I've been wanting to do.

Have you noticed how miserable people are?
Have you ever heard about how miserable?
Why is it?
Why is it?
Why is it everybody is so...
Have you noticed this?
What are these miserable people?
What is it everywhere?
And social media have absolutely...
Provided a great resource for this.
I mean, there are people who hide in the shadows, but then sometimes they go out into the world and they don't know how to deal.
What is the worst example of anything you've ever seen in terms of just rudeness in public?
I've seen this.
I think we're talking about a devolution of the human spirit.
I think we're talking about a collective...
I don't know what it is.
Stupid people?
Ignorant people?
Have you seen what people are wearing?
I don't know where you live.
I don't know.
I hope you don't see it.
Women were.
Rocks.
Am I kidding?
Women walking around with brassieres.
Or as my grandmother would call it, a Brazil.
Bras.
People with...
The other day we saw this.
Please forgive me if I say this.
Huge, crater-like, steatopygian, dimpled, moon-like orbs through tight spandex that don't cover the bottom half of these mounds of flesh as they waddle and lumber about with slippers.
Slippers!
Because they can't bend over to tie a shoe, put a shoe on, slippers, or thongs, with gnarled, gnarled, yellowed, claw-like, fetlock claws, because they can't see, because of their huge pannis, this paniculus, these tenter-bellied swaths, these lumbering behemoths walking around.
Dear God!
Have you seen this?
What is happening?
No class.
No anything.
No.
And then, the idea, this is my favorite, all of a sudden, let's put on these ridiculous dagger-like nails, these Cardi B stupid lashes, tattoos.
What?
Tattoos.
And with these claw-like...
This is a terrible thing.
I'm going to say something right now.
Please forgive me.
I'm sorry.
I know you've thought it.
Who's thought about this?
I'm going to say this and you tell me.
How do you clean yourself?
I'm sorry to say that.
Stop it!
You have to stop it.
How do they do it?
What, with a stick, a pool cue, and a rag?
How do they do this?
And when you've got fingers on like this, the hygiene must be horrible.
It must be just...
And a couple of times I thought, wow!
You know, the body is a very funny thing.
You've got to take care of this.
Laura says, plastic nails, $100 a set.
Who's getting this?
I don't get the talon fingernails.
I know, Sarah.
What is happening with this?
What is happening?
Did you say Bloomfield?
Oh!
You're thinking Bloomfield.
Bloomfield Avenue.
Well, maybe.
A little bit.
You think to yourself, I have seen obesity to the point where I'm thinking to myself, this is unbelievable.
And let me tell you something.
I'm somebody I could probably put on more weight than you could any day.
If you said, alright, let's go.
Let's see who can do it.
I could.
Absolutely.
This is not, you know...
I don't understand it.
A bidet.
Oh, you stop it, Ronald.
A bidet?
How about a hose?
Just a regular hose.
All those pressure cleaners.
The guy that cleans your gutters.
Come on, honey.
Bend over.
I could walk into a place and say, let me tell you something.
You listen to me right now.
All right, Al-Qaeda.
You better talk.
I'm not going to talk.
Come here.
Bring her in.
See this one here?
Yeah.
She's been wearing a pair of sweatpants for about a week.
I'm going to put that on your head.
If you don't give a...
I'll talk.
Alright.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Appreciate it.
I don't understand this.
Faye says, I grossed myself out by watching my 600 pound life.
Isn't that something?
Doesn't that also tell you?
What is this about?
Who are the people?
I saw a bartender who had a bolt through her nose.
Okay?
Bartenders, you don't care.
Because bartenders say, just give me the drink.
Don't worry about it.
Just give me the drink.
But what is it?
Where did this come from?
Who are these people who go...
Remember, Jerry, one of the worst things ever was the Maury Povich show.
Now, most people do not want to understand or to grasp.
How horrible the Maury Povich show was.
And the reason why it was so bad was that they had a show where people would say that they are not the father of a child.
And the mother would say, oh yes you are.
And there would be this child.
And then they would have a contest.
They would do a DNA test, allegedly, if you believe the premise of this.
And then all of a sudden, at the end they say, Jeremy, you are not the father!
Yay!
And this kid is saying, oh, they're happy that they're not the father.
The level of, and by the way, I don't want to live in some Amish world.
I don't want to live in some pristine, where women wear a long, you know, bo-peep, you know, little house on the prairie.
No, no, no, no, no.
I don't expect a lot.
I am not in any way suggesting.
Look at this.
The enablers that bring these fat people stuck.
You know, Faye, let me tell you what happened one time.
Years ago, there was a case.
WABC, I'll never forget this.
It was a, I believe his name, I'm not going to give his name.
Poor guy, but it was a terrible, terrible.
Terrible story.
And what it was, was a man who weighed 700, 800 pounds, something like this.
Now listen to this story.
And they were going to...
Listen to this story.
They had to remove the front of his house.
They had to take him to the hospital or whatever.
He was so big.
700, 800, whatever pounds.
He couldn't get out of bed.
This is tragic.
Tragic.
He couldn't get out of bed.
And he couldn't...
He couldn't move from...
He couldn't even go from one room...
He couldn't get out of the room.
So they had to pull the front of this house off.
Queens, or I don't know where it was.
And they had the firemen there.
I think Dick, our good friend Dick Oliver was there.
He was doing a kind of in the street, the reporting.
And he was reading the list from the fire department of what they were going to do.
And we started laughing because it was the most absurd thing we ever heard.
And people thought we were heartless.
But I didn't care.
Because on WABC then, they thought I was insane.
I'm really not.
They were just a little tight-ass this then.
Just a little bit.
I thought, New York?
I thought for sure that, no.
So anyway, I asked at the end of this, who is it when you start to hit 400, 500 pounds and you're going to say, hey Jerry, yeah listen, you can't go to the John anymore and not only that, you can't get through the door.
Let's put you in the living room or let's put you outside.
You can't get out of the house in case there's a fire.
You can't move.
I wasn't trying to be cute.
I was being dead serious.
So I ask the question, what would be the worst jobs this man could ever have and what would be the best job?
Think about this.
And what's interesting was they said the jobs that he should not have would be tightrope walker.
This is not fat shaming.
This was somebody people just using there.
Because this is beyond fat shaming.
This is just ludicrous.
The family who kept feeding him, the family who enabled him, the family that allowed this to maintain, you know, I think it might have been even close to a thousand, but I don't know, but it was up there.
In order to maintain 800 calories a day, somebody somewhere is going to the store.
I mean, please.
Anyway, some jobs he shouldn't have was tightrope walker, roofer.
Any circus act called the human arrow.
What jobs he should have, somebody called up, he said one time, oh, oh, oh.
Now listen to this.
In all seriousness, we thought about this.
Because this family, you should have seen this father.
He says, how do I, do they put, they had to take the front, the edifice, the front of his house off.
Who puts it back?
And the fireman said, don't look at us.
Well, what about my house?
Is it going to be, is it going to be flush?
Is it going to be...
But listen to what somebody did one time, and he was so brilliant.
So brilliant.
And nobody ever thought about this.
Oh, you're just into shaming.
What am I shaming?
Think about this.
He said, somebody called him, he said, a hockey goalie.
Now think about this.
If you brought him out on skates or on a, whatever it was, sat him on a, and he's there, and he covers up the net.
Completely.
And he has, you know, armor.
And he sits there.
He doesn't have to do anything.
Why would that be against us?
And we talked to people.
To me, it was the most brilliant thing I've ever heard in my life.
So why not?
You don't have to move.
You don't have to grab it.
Just, boom.
You're right in front of it.
Nothing gets past you.
Nothing.
Anyway.
That was tragic.
Putting it on TV.
Is a different story.
Why do people do that?
And now, what's interesting is that it's all been there, done that.
Been there, done that.
We have lost all, all sense.
And don't give me the shaming business.
We have lost all self-respect.
We have lost all any semblance of...
When I say self-respect, what does that mean to you?
What does that mean to you?
Self-respect.
I don't even think the word means anything.
I don't think anybody even...
I feel, and I think you agree with me, I feel alone.
Alone.
I feel like I'm not I feel like I'm not a part of any party.
I don't recognize my country.
How many times have you thought to yourself, what if we asked our parents if they could see this?
What would they think?
How would you explain this to somebody?
How would you explain this?
What happened to us?
Let me go back to this again.
Cassidy Hutchinson, can you believe this story?
That Donald Trump went for the wheel of his Secret Service car, his unit, for what?
Do you believe this?
He lunged for the throat?
This woman is testifying to this under oath?
You believe this?
Donald Trump is grabbing this?
Come on!
Turn, you son of a...
Turn!
What, is he in the back seat?
Is he leaning forward?
Is he in the front seat?
How do you lunge?
Where was he?
Try lunging for the steering wheel.
And then going after the throat and screaming and yelling, and then these things that she wrote, how does this even happen?
When will somebody say, that's enough?
That's enough.
Somebody read her her rights.
You just testified under oath.
You've got people being held, theoretically, for contempt of Congress.
And you dare say that?
Look, you could say whatever you want about it.
Donald Trump, and I know he's done some things, it's just, I've told you this, of course you have.
But they are so scared.
They are so scared, and he must be loving it.
Dear God, he must be saying, they cannot get over me.
They can't let me go.
It's just the most incredible thing in the world.
They can't do this.
And let me tell you something.
Imagine if you had a traffic ticket and you had a trial and they don't even bring the cop.
Even with a Photographic.
You know they're doing camera now, speed, whatever it is.
At least you get a picture.
There's your car.
There's your driving.
There you are.
This is the speed.
Okay.
I mean, you can't cross-examine a piece of paper, but at least there's something.
At least there's something.
Where?
Imagine going there.
Yes, Your Honor, yes.
You say I was speeding.
Where?
Oh, they say, who's they?
The police?
Well, where are they?
They're not here.
They're not here.
Well, what do you mean they're not here?
No?
Can I put on a witness?
No.
What?
I mean, this...
How does anybody...
How do these people like Lawrence Tribe, Rob Reiner...
Would somebody please tell me something?
Would somebody please say...
Bette Midler...
Who in the hell?
Seriously.
Who in the hell?
Really, is anyone for that matter?
And I've got people, believe it or not, that you're going to...
You might be surprised with.
There are people who are...
I could go down and tell you names of people that are wondering who in the hell are you to say anything?
Anything!
You're entitled.
Bette Midler, Rob Reiner, go ahead.
Doesn't matter.
No.
You're not entitled.
I'm not entitled.
Nobody's entitled.
But you do understand something, and listen to me very carefully.
Do you understand this?
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Listen to me.
Cable news, in particular, is dead.
Let me explain something to you.
Years ago, I had a guy on radio.
He was called, interestingly enough, A program director.
That's the name of people.
This is what...
And Dale Earnhardt died.
Do you know what that was?
What that meant to people in NASCAR?
Dale Earnhardt.
You know what this moron told me?
Nobody cares about NASCAR.
Nobody cares about NASCAR?
It's one thing for me to say, you don't care about this.
Do you understand what's going on?
Another one too.
I did a show one time on professional wrestling.
Professional wrestling, everybody understands that when you were a kid, pre-Vince McMahon, depending upon where you were, especially, forget the West Coast, the St. Louis, Keele Auditorium, Oklahoma, Texas, Georgia, Minnesota, Vern Gagne, Bill Watts in Oklahoma, Jack Atkinson, who was Fritz von Erich in Texas.
Eddie Graham in Florida.
Crockett in the Carolinas.
Cowboy Luttrell.
Go down the list.
Do you remember having your grandmother, sometimes your grandmother or grandfather would sit in front of the TV and go crazy and you'd say, Grandma, you can't watch that.
Everybody remembers these kind of black and white, Gorilla Monsoon.
I went through the whole thing.
This moron.
This moron said, nobody cares about wrestling.
I said, you don't understand something.
You're a fool.
But let me try to say something to you.
What you're seeing right now, look at me.
What you're seeing right now, this, in its glory, is not the future.
It's the present.
It's now.
There are shows.
There is such a...
I mean, you want to talk about competition.
There are shows, whatever you want, whatever you want, here, at levels you can't believe.
Now, there's always going to be people who watch these shows.
Always.
There are always going to be people who maintain this because they think that if it's not on TV...
Are you on the radio?
Oh, God.
What channel are you on?
How do I...
Are you on the radio?
The other day I had people...
I'm trying to explain GPS.
I know people.
I said, you have GPS?
I don't have GPS.
You have a phone?
Yeah.
You've got GPS.
Just plug it in.
But how...
I gotta go...
I don't know how...
You don't know how to use GPS on a phone?
Have you ever learned?
No.
Have you ever Googled it?
No.
Have you ever gone to YouTube?
How many times have you gone to YouTube to say, how do I do this?
How do I clean this duct?
How do I make this?
You go to YouTube.
YouTube is two-thirds of all advertising on the internet is YouTube.
What are we talking about?
You've got Trevor Noah thinking, I'm a star.
I got news for you, Trevor.
It's over.
It's done.
Move over here.
By the way, see Jen Psaki?
Where's she going?
Nowhere.
It's done.
It's finished.
James Corden, gone.
Colbert, gone.
The money, where's the money?
What are we paying for?
What are we doing?
They don't understand it.
This is it.
They don't get it.
And if we, believe me, believe me, One day, it may not be in my lifetime, but we're going to have a candidate who answers to us.
And in the old days, we'd laugh at third parties.
Oh, no, no, no.
There's going to be one of us.
And they're going to come after this person.
Oh, this person's crazy and a conspiracy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Neither Democrat nor Republican.
I'm telling you.
Look at me and believe me.
And we will vote for him or her in a heartbeat.
And they will say, who is this?
And I will be able to say, we're running this candidate.
And I right now have pledged, pledged 150,000, 200,000 votes or whatever it is.
You want to vote from home?
Great!
I've got it right here.
You know how much he's going to spend on his campaign?
$100.
Not one ad on TV.
Not one ad on TV.
Nowhere.
And he's going to win.
And they're going to say, who is he?
But the Democrats, screw the Democrats and the Republicans.
This is an American.
This is it.
And he's the person.
And I've got more votes right here.
I've got 100,000 votes.
You don't.
He's the person.
I've got him.
I'm telling you right now, he's going to win.
Why?
Because he's here.
Because we're here.
You're spending money on TV.
You know, it may not apply to you, but when you're in New Jersey, God forbid, you've got to pay.
All of the media are in New York, for the most part.
So you've got to go to New York.
Who was that fellow who ran in New Jersey?
What is his name?
He beat the state senator.
He delivers.
He's a Trumper.
He delivers furniture.
He's just a regular guy.
Beat him.
I'm telling you, the day is going to come.
You're going to see these people and they're going to see, who is this?
And we're going to say, I already got the votes.
I already got the votes right now.
Ed Durr?
Yeah, Ed Durr.
Look his name up.
He spent $153.
That's it.
And we're going to tell somebody one thing.
Here is my position.
Number one, two, three, whatever it is.
You want to call me Republican?
Whatever.
I don't care.
Number one.
And you can pick it if you want.
If you want a statewide law or amendment banning abortion, you should have your say.
If you want it, have your say.
Whatever it is.
But the first thing is, remember critical race theory?
Nobody says anything about critical race theory anymore.
Nobody says anything.
You know what it now is?
It's critical gender theory.
It's this crap kids are being told.
It's ridiculous.
That's number one.
That's it.
They have completely come in and destroyed everything.
And I swear to you, they're going to laugh at us.
They always do.
Because we're crazy.
Don't you understand?
We're crazy.
We're crazy.
We're nuts.
Because we believe in this thing.
We're conspiracy theorists and we think Trump is great and we like the flag and we, you know.
That's it?
We're crazy.
Okay.
Call us crazy.
Use it.
Are you crazy?
Vote for me, the crazy party.
And if you think protecting kids in school is crazy, then I'm nuts.
If you think standing up for something makes sense, then I'm crazy.
And I'm nuts.
If you think that lowering taxes, where is my tax?
This is confiscatory.
You're stealing my money.
Where is it going?
This has got to end.
This has got to stop.
This Federal Reserve tyranny, I don't give a damn what you think.
It stops now.
Why?
Because I'm crazy.
And there's a lot of crazy people out there who join me.
And all of a sudden they're going to laugh.
And on CNN, whatever's left of that.
And they're going to say, son of a...
And we start off and we're going to say, and by the way, we know you're going to steal this election.
Republicans and Democrats.
Because you're both of the same.
Two sides of the same coin.
I'm going to leave it at that.
I'm going to leave it at that.
Okay?
Do you understand this?
It's that simple.
By the way, I hope you have already done this, but you must sign up for my newsletter.
It's a beaut.
Why are we not today?
I love when people get these newsletters and they say, unsubscribe.
They say, unsubscribe yourself.
It's on the damn thing.
Shut up.
Shut up.
I don't know.
How do you GPS?
I don't know.
How do you open this up?
We love you.
Now listen to me.
Who's going to be with me?
Who's going to come out?

I don't sit in a chair with fake canned audience laughter, if you know what I mean.
And I think you do.
Alright.
Don't forget to go to Mrs. Else.
She's got a brand new video right now.
Brand new.
Go to lenswarriors at YouTube and follow her at lenswarriors.
Every time she gets six new voters, Twitter takes them away.
She gets six new followers, Twitter takes them away.
Oh, really?
And this thing...
I don't even know what that's about.
Don't forget, we may be demonetized, but we're not demoralized.
Alright, my friends, don't forget to go to MyPillow.com, promo code Lionel, and PrepareWithLionel.com.
Support our sponsors.
Now, where's everybody from?

Roll call.

We're going to play the guitar pretty soon.
I'm going to bring the guitar out.
I've got to get a better chair.
I'm going to play some guitar.
Let's go.
Where's everybody from?
Look at this.
Yep, I'm stuck at 230.
I was 235 and then all of a sudden they said, oh, you lost 200 subscribers.
What?
For years!
Come on!
Anyway, thank you, Carol DeJong.

Oh, Pinellas Park.
Yes.
Up and down 19. Broward County, Florida.
Who remembers in Florida, years ago, we had all the license tags.
The number one.
They had a number before the number.
Number one was in the largest counties.
Dade was one.
Broward was two.
Hillsborough was three.
Four was Pinellas, I think.
Five might have been...
And then 67 got it.
And then 67 was like...
Whatever it is.
Alright.
Have a great and glorious day.
See you tomorrow.
Same bad time.
Same bad channel.
I had a wonderful time with you today.
I really did.
