This is the Thursday version of this thing of ours.
And I'm going to be discussing a lot of things today, and I hope you don't take offense to it.
But I really don't care.
Let me remind you that this is at YouTube speed.
What I say right now has none of the spice, the piquant, the dangerousness in it.
It is mollified, made safe.
It's like when you have a...
A home or an apartment where you've removed all the sharp objects and you've covered up the plugs so that the baby can't get hurt.
That's where we are now.
Because as you know, social media do not like you to go too far regarding certain things.
So what I'm doing is I'm going to be addressing this, but at the, just like today with this hot, you know, this hot weather, we're going, just like they reduce the The temperature.
By the way, the cities get millions and millions of dollars from the government to do that.
Your question should be, well, where's my money?
Anyway.
But I'm going to turn it down.
Make it simple.
Try not to offend.
Not you.
I don't care about offending you.
But offending everybody else.
Because that's kind of where we are right now.
And that is it.
And that.
Now let me start off with something.
First, I'm going to be talking about the weather.
I'm going to be talking about Dave Chappelle.
I'm going to be talking about a lot of things.
A lot of, I think, fascinating and informational things.
But I just finished, that will go on today, a newsletter that is just...
I don't even know what you want to call it.
Is it a newsletter?
I guess it is.
Is it an email?
I guess it is.
I don't know.
But it's so...
I love it.
And I knew it was good because somebody wrote me, actually wrote me and said, it was too much to read.
So I'm going to put down right now, this is the information.
You can sign up for the newsletter.
Somebody actually said, it's too much to read.
It's because we have so many stupid people.
I mean, don't kid yourself.
Really stupid people.
So many of them.
And the stupid people have the big mouth.
There are smart people as well, but they kind of keep their mouth shut.
The big mouths tend to be stupid.
I'll tell you that.
I've got a lot to discuss.
Loads of things.
First, I want to discuss something with you.
And just tell you this much.
We are a group of babies.
We are a group of babies who we've always loved to talk about the weather.
We've always said, boy, hot enough for you?
Sure is.
Sure is.
Yesterday I saw people who were out working, you know, out in the, doing whatever it is.
Then you meet somebody who says, oh, I love this weather.
I love this weather.
Somebody said, two people yesterday told me, I love this weather.
I said, but you're inside.
Yeah, but I love this weather.
I said, but you're inside.
It's very easy for you to say you love this when you're inside.
Again, didn't think about it.
He and she spent their entire life telling people, oh, I love the heat.
No, you don't.
You're inside.
You can't handle it.
Go outside.
Oh my God.
I notice you're eating your lunch inside.
I notice you're at the desk inside.
You go into your car.
That's air conditioned.
You don't love this.
You say this because you're a liar.
And you're stupid.
And you say it because it kind of sort of makes you think good stuff.
I've got to tell you this much.
This kills me too.
These are people who just say things.
This was an email that went out.
Which I find fantastic.
Written by...
Guess the age of this person.
Guess the age.
This went out...
Oh, here we go.
This went out to a building in New York.
It said tomorrow, Thursday, from 2 to 6 p.m., Con Ed has requested that buildings conserve electricity to help...
Okay.
Due to the expected strain on the electric grid, which, by the way, Mr. Booty Giggity Giggity wants you to add to by virtue of electric cars.
Here are the best ways to save and reduce your carbon footprint.
So, help me God.
I wanted to just...
Reach my finger in my throat, grab my uvula, and pull it, thus encouraging emesis.
Raise your AC set point.
Turn off or dim lighting.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Unplug non-essential electronics.
Non-essential.
All right.
Fair enough.
Avoid doing laundry or running the dishwasher.
Now this is the part that kills me.
Thank you for playing a role in maintaining a healthier planet and electric grid!
My biggest problem is with the exclamation point.
Why are you yelling this?
Why are you exclaiming this?
This is an ejaculation in the truest sense of the word.
This is like you ejaculate, you pray, you prithee, you...
Why are you...
This was written by a child.
A little Gen Z-er child who save our planet.
We're going to save our planet.
Thank you, Mr. Salvo.
We're going to save our planet.
We're going to maintain a healthier electric grid, too, by unplugging my dialysis machine.
I don't really need it.
After all, this is how we are so bloody stupid.
Okay?
These are the people.
Let me do something here.
I don't want to harm you.
I'm getting a little...
Perhaps I might have smudged something.
Please forgive me.
Talk amongst yourself.
I have to just make sure my thing...
Sorry about that.
This drives me nuts.
We'll talk a little bit about it.
Because nobody...
Nobody...
And try this.
And remember, this is for...
You two purposes.
Sit down.
Is it Tiffany?
What is your name?
Michaela Morgan?
Hi.
Have a seat.
Have a seat.
Tell me.
I think conservation makes a lot of sense.
I'm not arguing the point.
Tell me how my planet is healthier by unplugging my Let's say dishwasher.
Tell me how the planet, the planet, not how we save money, we don't use the grid, we don't tax the grid.
Tell me how the planet.
Have you, you undoubtedly believe in this thing and profess a certain conversance with climate change.
Do you not?
Yes, I'm sure you do.
And global warming.
They got away from the global warming part.
They went to the climate change.
I'm going to assume, arguendo, that there is indeed climate change.
Now, you've never specified whether the change is either improvement or a detriment.
For example, if I said to you, Mr. So-and-so, yes.
We've done a test and the tumor has changed.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm going to be leaving now.
Any other questions?
No.
No.
Now, what did you want to know?
How it changed.
How has the climate changed?
How many...
Levels.
First question.
Has anybody told you that the climate has changed deleteriously?
We assume it.
Question number one.
Morgan, Tiffany, Mandy, whoever you are.
I'll assume it's deleterious.
Two, is this a normal change?
To wit, as you know, when we grow, we change.
We change in appearance, we change skin elasticity, a physical endurance, a variety of things change.
Change.
They change.
A 70-year-old, healthy 70-year-old, does not work as optimally as a 20-year-old in certain aspects, physical endurance of this and that.
There has been change, correct?
There has been change.
I would venture to say that the 20-year-old is probably...
Probably, in some respects, better off physically than the seven-year-old.
Would you agree?
Yes, you would.
Now, is there anything that we could do to change the change?
Is there anything that we can do?
So, therefore, Mandy, Mindy, Morgan, Michaela, so, therefore, sometimes the change that we see is not necessarily bad, it's not necessarily good, it's sometimes unavoidable.
Sometimes the change is just there.
Now, next.
Is there anything that mankind can do to prevent this?
What can I do to prevent this change?
And before you do this, everybody, class, class, I want you to look up the Hipsy Thermals.
Remember this, Hipsy Thermals.
That's such a great name.
How about the Holocene Climatic Optimum?
The Holocene Climate Optimum was a warm period that occurred in the interval between 9,000 to 5,000 years ago.
BP before present.
Did you know they're doing BP?
Remember there was BC, AD, and like that.
Then there was Common Era.
CE, before Kalmanera.
Now that's BP.
So 9,000 to 5,000 was a thermal maximum around 8,000 years.
It was also known by the names Altothermal, Climatic Optimum, Holocene Megathermal, Holocene Optimum, Holocene or Holocene, Thermomaximum, Hypsothermal, Mid-Holocene, Holocene Warm Period.
The Warren period was followed by a gradual decline of about 0.1 to 0.3 degrees centigrade per millennium.
Now, this was pretty big stuff.
9,000 to 5,000 years ago.
Holocene, H-O-L-O-C-E-N-E, or H-I-P-S-I, Thermal, T-H-E-R-M-A-L.
Not a lot of cars.
Not a lot of grids.
Not a lot of dishwashers.
Not a lot of stuff.
I would venture to say...
By the way, it's not bovine flatulence.
Sometimes it's eructation.
It's belching.
That's where it comes from.
Borborygmus.
Not flatus.
It's an only bovine.
Not porcine bovine.
Okay.
So Megan, did you know about that?
No.
No, you did not know that, did you?
You did not know that.
Would that change anything?
Did you understand that there are these weird things that happen sometimes?
It's the damnedest thing.
5,000 to 9,000 years ago.
Some people say that the reason why the UK is even green to begin with is because of the fact of it.
Now, next Morgan, Megan, what would you like me to do to change this?
Explain to me how carbon taxing, carbon trading, carbon exchanges, how How any of this makes any difference?
You can't.
I know you can't.
Nobody can.
Because you have adopted this.
You have just accepted this as an article of faith.
Like you have with...
This weird, with viral transmission, masking, inoculations, monkeypox.
You just sit back and I can just tell you anything.
And you will immediately tattoo it, if there's any real estate left.
You will tattoo it.
You will put a little filter on your Facebook.
I stand with Ukraine.
You'll just do this.
And you don't know anything about it.
Now, I'm asking a very simple question.
Is this change subject to man-made behavior?
Can we reverse things by doing what?
Why is it then?
Are you saying that, tell me, are you saying that wind power, wind power, who makes that China?
Do you know this?
When they were, by the way, last night, Tucker Carlson, I don't know how much longer they can possibly keep him, but...
As long as he's on Fox.
He's the only reason to watch.
There was some place to say, oh, look at these, look at these, look at these charging stations.
And who functions the charging station?
Who powers the charging stations?
Where does this?
We were at the Woodrow Wilson rest stop over the weekend.
It was a tremendous time.
And they had Tesla charging stations.
Who powers the charging station?
The grid.
The electric, Con Ed or whatever.
And where do they get it from?
Coal.
Now, I believe in saving the planet.
Do not pollute the water.
Do not throw garbage away.
Recycle!
God, if you can recycle, what is wrong with recycling?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Do you really want to do anything?
Let's talk about beef, porcine, poultry.
Let's talk about beef and flesh production slot.
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
Let me go.
Let me go.
You know they've got...
No, I don't want to hear that.
I don't want to hear that.
Wait a minute.
You're asking me to unplug my thing.
No, no, no, no, no.
I don't want to talk about that.
Sorry.
Not interested.
Bacon?
No.
I want to talk this.
So, Megan, Megan McKellen Morgan, do you really feel this way?
No.
No.
I say this.
See, in my generation, we just say, remember the old days?
Have a nice day.
Everybody said, have a nice day.
Little smiley face, have a nice day.
People say groovy.
It's an expression.
And the smartest people ever.
Are you familiar, Megan, Madison, Morgan, whatever your name is, are you familiar with, and this is very important, are you familiar?
With a couple of other little things that are going on here.
Are you familiar with what ESG grading has done?
What Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum has done?
Are you familiar with what's happened with the Danish farmers?
No, you don't know what you're doing.
But what you will do, you and your brain-dead generation, is you will repeat pithy little phrases.
That mean absolutely nothing.
Nothing to you.
Nothing to anyone else.
It means nothing to you.
You don't know what you're saying.
You think you know.
Let's say people I know who are religious, who swear by Christ and they've never studied.
They don't know anything.
It's an expression.
I've got a friend of mine who's got...
On his pole, a Ukrainian flag.
And he, like Stephen King, did you see that Russian morning show?
These Russians are great.
They call people up.
And they're getting Stephen King to admit in supporting Stepan Bandera, the Nazi, because Stephen King may be a great writer.
Doesn't know diddly squat about anything.
Let me stop right for a second.
Let me stop for a second.
Just for a moment, please.
You understand this?
I was watching today, and I cannot say this enough.
I believe the best, the best, the best, the best.
One of the most comprehensive news programs of all is Wion.
W-I-O-N.
World is one.
Palki Sharma Upadhyay.
She has a show called Gravitas.
One of the best.
Putin, Erdogan, Saudi, the Reconnection, this new Western Asian...
Oh my God.
You just want to keep playing it over and over.
One of the best.
Not a lot of stupid graphics.
Not a lot of fancy stuff.
Not somebody sitting there, you know.
And what were they talking about?
Food!
Food!
Ladies and gentlemen, food!
You know what's coming.
This is the My Patriot Supply part of the show.
Prepare with Lionel.
Everybody all over the world is talking about food, nitrogen, Klaus Schwab and the ESGs.
They're saying, you know, there seems to be, I hope, a gradual reduction in these ridiculous prices of gas and the like.
Prepare with Lionel.com.
This is felt all over the world.
If they pull an ESG Plan on our farmers trying to get rid of nitrogen?
You've got people here in this country.
You've got one of the worst of the worst, Pete Booty Giggity Giggity, who wants us to go in electric cars.
Anything that disrupts the supply chain will affect food.
That's why you've got to make sure.
You go to preparewithlionel.com.
Do you have a three-month, 90-day emergency food supply?
90 days.
3 months.
2,000 calories a day.
A variety.
Breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinners.
Do you have that?
If you don't, go to preparewithlionel.com.
3 months per person.
In resealable, these wonderful containers, 120 pounds.
Serious.
They last 25 years.
You stack them up, you go into your garage or your storage, and you get rid of stuff you don't need because this is emergency food.
This is a survivalist lifestyle.
I can't say this enough.
And now is the time to do it.
Preparewithlinel.com Self-reliance.
In case of an economic collapse, in case of disruption of food chains, natural disasters, who knows what's going to happen?
Look how people react with sun, with the summer, with heat.
Anything can trigger a disaster.
PrepareWithLionel.com PrepareWithLionel.com I put the link there for you.
You can save $150 on a three-month emergency foods kit.
That's it.
You know what to do.
People are saying, now's the time.
This is not an extravagance.
That's all I'm going to tell you.
Now, now we have, we'll put this global warming over here.
Same thing with Ukraine.
Watch.
We on.
Palky Sharma's phenomenal.
Watch what, just watch that one.
Meanwhile, Biden said, the people like me, I've got cancer.
What?
I've got cancer.
Did he say he has cancer?
No, he didn't say that.
Yes, he did.
No, he didn't say he has cancer.
Yes, he did.
No, he said he had cancer.
No, he said...
Okay?
He's gone.
He's gone.
Literally, figuratively, he is gone.
Now, the next topic.
The non-issue of Dave Chappelle.
Ladies and gentlemen, let me start off by saying I am not going to in any way try to define what is and isn't funny, what is and isn't courageous.
But if you think Dave Chappelle or Joe Rogan is on the same level, and I have a lot of respect, let me just say this right away, with Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Even Cheech and Chong, people who got arrested for just making a joke.
Dick Gregory.
I mean, Mort Saul.
Do you?
There are people who said, you don't understand.
Joe Rogan, Bill Burr.
These are free speech.
Would you shut up?
Free speech.
Is anybody threatening to arrest them?
No.
There's nothing.
This is a work.
This is a work.
This is a wrestling publicity work.
And if you think that this...
Let's talk about Dave Chappelle.
Very good.
What he did years ago, some of the most cutting-edge stuff regarding race, Race.
Race.
Race.
Very good.
Very good.
His N were every iteration of the N-word.
Oh my God.
He bludgeoned you with it.
He had a black man who was blind who didn't know he was black and was a racist.
Brilliant.
Okay.
Cutting edge.
Alright.
Then he had this white family named the N-word.
Did it?
Okay.
Again, bludgeon, truncheon, cudgel, boom, you got it, you got it, you got it?
Yes, I got it.
See, I'm using the...
Yes, Dave, thank you.
Very good, by the way.
Cutting edge?
I guess, from our point of view.
Carlin-like?
No.
Lenny Bruce?
No.
Still...
Tweaked down for his audience.
With all due respect, we're not talking, and by the way, this is all demographics, we are not talking, you know, particle physicists here.
It's still got to be down, down, bludgeon, obvious, obvious.
He has such potential.
He is one of the most natural storytellers.
He does.
Louis C.K. is one of the best storytellers.
Storytellers.
There are people who tell stories that are really, really great.
It's the lost art.
Not this hit-and-run stuff or whatever it is.
Okay, fine.
That's up to you.
Now, so what does he do?
Well, he's going to appear someplace and then they cancel him.
Now listen, this is the best part.
This is the best.
Listen to this.
You know what?
Better yet.
Read some plays that we're going to cancel them because, you know, free speech is a...
And what's interesting, in today's newsletter, which, by the way, I'm putting up again for you, I quote at the very top, Erdogan.
Erdogan from Turkey.
Erdogan.
This is the best.
This is the dude you do not want to mess with.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Quote, satire, whether it be satire or not, everything has to have boundaries.
This is from him.
This is from...
This is good stuff.
This is good stuff.
By the way, I also have a great quote from Aldous Huxley.
There will be in the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak.
Producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire society so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away.
From them, but we'll rather enjoy it.
That's why we're pushing every kind of dope there is because we want mentally fried people.
And we want these idiots to feel like somehow they're being hip by virtue of getting, hey man, I'm getting into the new psychedelics, man.
That's great, man.
Good.
Keep it up.
I read something today where mushrooms, it's fantastic.
There's a new Netflix thing, and psychedelics are wonderful.
Psychedelics can unleash a lot of things.
You want to give out psychedelics to people?
Go ahead.
En masse.
Good for you.
And that's where we are.
But Dave Chappelle does the most blatant, lowest-rung jokes about...
Transgenders.
And it is meant, and I don't think this in any way invalidates his method, but it is meant to insult, inflame, arouse, because that's where he makes his money.
That's where you make your money.
Because the next time somebody sees him, it's going to be even bigger.
And I wouldn't be surprised if somebody says, hey listen, do me a favor.
Can we book Dave theoretically with a place we know you're not going to allow?
So I'll give you some publicity.
Get your name out.
Then you can cancel us.
We'll love it.
You'll love it.
You'll be speaking to your crowd.
They'll applaud you.
My folks applaud me.
Everybody's happy.
Absolutely.
You don't think that's beyond the realm of possibility?
No, but this, this, and this, you've, okay, I've got to read this thing to you.
This is so funny, it's not even, and thank God, if your enemies are going to be something, thank God they'd be just stupid.
Listen to this.
This is great.
This is from First Avenue somewhere, wherever this place is.
The Dave Chappelle Show tonight at First Avenue has been cancelled.
And is moving to the Varsity Theatre.
Oh, that's good.
Let them know.
So if you want to hear your hate, go to the Varsity Theatre.
To staff, artists, and our community, we hear you.
And we are sorry.
We know we must hold ourselves to the highest standard.
And we know we let you down.
We are not just a black box.
It works with people in it, and we understand that First Avenue is not just a room, but meaningful beyond our walls.
The First Avenue team, and you have worked hard to make our venues the safest place in the country, and we were Continue with that mission.
These places, by the way, that serve alcoholic beverages, serve food that is heavily processed, probably want you to be safe because, as you know, comedy, comedy in thought is most injurious, most insidious, and most problematic to the systematic decrepitude and putrescence of an otherwise great and noble society.
This is the best one.
We believe in diverse voices and the freedom of artistic expression.
I smell a butt!
But in honoring that, we lost sight of the impact this would have.
Yes, expression, thought, oh my God, imagine what would be if people were allowed to think In a way, there was a couple of, well, of this century.
We know there are some who will not agree with this decision.
You are welcome to send feedback.
If you are a ticket holder, look for an email, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
This is such utter balderdash.
This is a work.
This is absolutely...
Chappelle benefits.
Everybody else is, you know, what do I have to do?
Bill Burr's thinking, can I mention it?
How come I haven't been?
Can I mention more?
Can we entitle it something?
Because I've got to get this publicity by being banned.
And by the way, the subject matter is so base, it's all about genitals and things, the obvious stuff.
But if you think this is bravery, if you think Dave Chappelle, and let me say this again without reservation, is, you know, Nathan Hale, Patrick Henry, Thomas Paine, if you think he's Mohandas Gandhi, if you think this man is, come on!
My entire life, I've been through one iteration of this after another.
One time I interviewed, you don't remember this, Two live crew.
Remember him?
Remember two live crew?
Luke Skywalker.
He was from Miami.
He came in through Tampa.
Talked to him.
What did he do?
Remember N.W.A.
Cop Killer?
I've been through that.
G.G. Allen.
Now that was a good one.
The man who flung his own excrement at the audience.
Used to cut himself.
Cut himself.
Forget, listen, you think going to a Gallagher concert was something where you've got to have a shower curtain.
This guy's flinging out.
Anyway, shall I go on?
We've had this stuff in our country forever.
And nothing spells success like banning it.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Remember the...
Anarchist cookbook.
Remember that one?
Through the Roof.
Remember Paladin Press?
George Hayduke?
All these old OSS manuals, How to Kill Through the Roof.
This is so old.
It is a work.
It is a staged, choreographed, everybody benefits because we love to be offended.
Trans-sensitive group benefits, Chappelle benefits.
Meanwhile, nobody really discusses what's going on, because the issue is, it's not about discussing the issue, it's about making a joke about, you know, genitals and pudenda, and it's, we have just lost, I mean, when, here's Josh Hawley, U.S. Senator, so let me ask you a question.
Can you define a woman?
Ho, ho, ho, ho.
That'll get them.
We are so base.
And we think we're so revolutionary.
Oh my God.
And the best of them all.
And I love them to death.
Joe Rogan.
Oh!
He is the best?
I'm not gonna have Trump on.
Uh-huh.
Why, that man baby, that Adderall chomping.
Mm-hmm.
Keep it up.
Keep it up.
Hey, Don, you know, listen.
I'm gonna...
Just make sure you get a copy of this today.
Yeah.
I'm going to put...
Yeah.
I'm digging three, four months.
Maybe tops.
Yeah.
Right.
Before...
Okay.
Before...
Right.
Before midterm.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's four months away.
So we got...
Yeah.
Yeah.
I got to go.
I got to go.
Listen.
Just listen to me.
Now remember, don't take...
No, no.
I understand.
It's all a work.
No harm feeling.
Okay.
No.
Okay.
No bad feeling.
Okay.
Puts it down.
Fly that Trump no good.
Ooh, Joe Rogan.
And Neil Young is thinking, Spotify, yeah!
I'm not going to talk to that son of a gun.
Trump, you...
I'm not going to help him out.
How are we doing?
Well, it's only July.
And then one day...
Mark my words.
Right before the midterms.
All of a sudden, somebody says, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
What am I doing?
I have the most singular, the most important position ever.
And I could be asking.
I could be talking.
And I'm going to...
You know what?
I'm not going to run.
From Donald Trump?
I mean, after all, my whole thing is UFC and tough guys and I can do a rear naked choke and all this stuff.
I'm into kickbox.
No, you know what?
No, I've been...
No, I'm...
We're going to have him on.
What?
I'm going to have him on.
You're going to have him on?
Oh my God!
This is going to be a showdown.
And Neil Young.
God!
Son of a...
All right.
And Trump's like this, okay?
Because what is Joe Rogan?
Two guys bucking authority, bucking the trend, using the media like nobody else has done.
People who kind of say, what's he doing here?
I remember there was a...
You know, I know all these radio people.
Well, I was on KQO5, and I've been on radio my whole life, and I don't understand.
Who's this Joe Rogan?
He's on the radio.
I've been on the radio.
Uh-huh.
Watch him.
Watch him.
You don't need a puker voice to go, well, I don't know who this guy is.
And that's Joe Rogan.
Some of the best, and I don't know why he's not doing it, some of the best stuff, and I've never heard a full show, but I've heard YouTubers.
When he and Joey Diaz used to talk about drugs, some of the best, it was fantastic.
Because Joe Rogan has a real interest and a curiosity in a lot of things.
But don't give me this.
Come on, Joe.
Stop it.
It's a work.
I don't want to let the cat out of the bag, but do you know what that's going to do?
Oh my God.
And then he's going to say, and then you're going to get, Mr. President, what do you have to say to Joe Rogan?
Will you tell that no good?
This is Freddie Blassie.
Why?
When I'm in the armory next week, I'm going to...
Dusty Rose, the American Dream.
Let me tell you something, Joe Rogan.
My name is Donald Trump.
Remember, Joe...
Keep your lights out, match.
Let me tell you something, Rogan.
You can't run from me.
You don't have the guts to be...
Why, you...
I'll tell you what.
Billy Dream.
I got the pythons.
You know, he goes through this whole thing.
We've seen this a million times.
It's beautiful.
And the...
And the...
The media.
Will he do it?
Oh, no.
And all these new people.
Remember Nils Lofgren?
I'm going to take my catalog out!
Who are you?
Nils Lofgren!
Who?
Nils!
Weren't you Cloris Leachman's husband?
No!
That's Lars!
Oh, who are you?
Nils?
You and Metallica?
No!
That's Lars!
What?
Anyway.
Even that David Crosby, poor guy with the doily, he's got that smelly doily he wears in this.
The tea cozy he wears.
It's so sad.
People, even they're saying, can we?
Can I do it?
Can I?
It's perfect.
And then there's going to be this, okay, you know what?
We're going to do this.
And then they, oh, a couple of conditions.
I'm not going to do conditions.
Well, you better be stretching.
I don't want to talk about January 6th.
Well, I want to talk about January 6th.
Okay, great.
And let me tell you what's going to happen.
Not Joe Rogan, but the audience will say, Mr. President, we're going to turn over something to you.
You're like podcasting.
Number one, people are laughing.
Do you know that I did podcasting before?
Seriously.
I one time was at a talk radio convention and had to explain Podcasting.
Two people in the business, they have no idea what I saw.
What station is it on?
It's not on a station.
What?
Where is it?
It's on the internet.
What?
We used to do with, I think years ago, a genius by the name of Bob Marowitz put together something called IATA.com.
It was an internet radio.
It was the most incredible thing, but it was before bandwidth.
That was the thing.
It was ahead of its time.
Dear God, it was incredible.
It was like...
And they said, this isn't going to work.
Meanwhile, these poor radio stations are hanging off for dear life.
You see, what Chappelle's not doing, he's not milking this.
See, Chappelle's got to say, What am I doing?
You've got to own this.
He just sits back.
He doesn't know the work.
He doesn't know how to do it.
Rogan does.
That's wrestling.
That goes back.
Chappelle could reach out.
Chappelle could talk about this.
Chappelle can say this story.
Listen to this one.
I took the N-word, the dread N-word.
What did I do?
I diluted it.
I confronted it.
And now I think much of the sting has been lost because I said, no, no, it's ours.
And I confronted it and I showed you in a unique way of...
Taking the situation and confronting it comedically, he could be going on shows, he could be the Mahatma Gandhi of new whatever it is.
And then he puts an X amount of money and he donates it to some LGBT trans defensive people who have suffered the ignominy.
And then he turns around and he invokes the memory of Dick Gregory.
And where do you think Dick Gregory, Richard Pryor, going back to the Chitlin circuit from Pygmy Markham to Moms Mabley and, oh, he can make this!
I mean, but he's not doing it.
Because he doesn't really see it yet.
Rogan sees it.
Not him.
So what's going to happen?
The biggest letdown ever, the biggest lost opportunity was the slap.
Will Smith and Chris Rock.
That thing was lost.
I don't know what that was about.
I don't understand it.
That comes about once every...
It's like a solar eclipse.
You only get that one time.
And nobody seized on it.
Nobody...
There was more going on there than you can imagine.
But let me tell you something.
This is not free speech.
Free speech, what we're talking about now, is not trans jokes.
It's being able to speak your mind about medicine, science, history.
Do you know what they're doing in China?
You know the mortgagors, their cities, Where, by virtue of a series of problems, there are folks who are not paying their mortgages.
And China's government is going crazy.
So what they're doing is they're basically standing up and they're saying, we're not going to take this.
It's one thing for you and me to stand up against whatever.
But when they do this in China, that takes guts.
That.
Not Joe Rogan, not Dave Chappelle guts.
That takes it.
Do you ever hear from that feller from Tiananmen Square?
No.
Do you ever know who he was?
No.
You think he's alive today?
No.
You can be disappeared so fast, you're not going to hear these people's names.
So what did China do?
It went on social media.
And basically scrubbed their account.
I mean, how did China go on social media?
Does China have a connection with big tech?
Yes!
That's the First Amendment.
Or the free speech thing.
Not Dave Chappelle.
That's a low-hanging fruit.
That's an example.
That's a limited hangout, sort of.
It's like a distraction.
You talk about that.
The real stuff is elsewhere.
That's the stuff.
You want to know where the free speech is?
Who shut down the Republican Party?
They're worthless.
Who shut them down?
Who?
They're nowhere to be found.
It's on a couple of Fox News shows, but that's about it.
You look at it.
Who's back?
AOC, Elon, Omar, I was so thrilled.
Did you say what they were doing with that phony arrest with their hands behind their back?
From basically Soros.
You know why that was important?
You know why?
Because that is a wedge that Soros is going to place within the Democratic Party, which is what I've been talking about.
Watch that.
Watch what Nancy Pelosi and the Dems do with that one.
Okay, very quickly, before I forget, because I always do this.
You know who I'm going to talk about now.
Our man, our man, Mike Lindell.
Come on.

Now I'm going to say one thing quickly, and I have to say this.
As you know, I was raised in Florida.
Not Florida.
Florida.
I knew hot.
We had a 66 Chevy Impala.
And there was one, I think it was that one, but we had these vinyl seats.
These like plastic on the seats.
And it would sit in our driveway and bake in the sun.
My sister and I, wearing shorts of course, not out of any style, we would sit on this and our skin would liquefy.
We'd have pools of molten dermis just puddling under our legs as our skin melted.
It was the worst heat ever.
We didn't have an air conditioner.
We had an attic fan.
That was it.
Go back and look at the temperatures.
The same.
We had 100 degrees.
We had that.
Humidity, though, that will kill you.
And we kind of talked about it.
But now, if you look at the UK, these little Gen Zers are saying, can I go home from work?
Can I go home from work?
It's too hot.
Because they want to get out of work.
And that's what we're doing.
We are creating.
This generation...
First of all, these people cannot talk.
These are some of the strangest people I've ever met in my life.
They're walking around looking at their phone with their masks on, always scared.
Triple mask, double mask, triple boosted.
Worried about this, worried about that.
Anxiety with their CBDs and their drugs and their anxiolytics.
And I gotta go and I gotta...
Dear God, it's hot.
Get over it.
It's the summer.
What do you want?
Well, people are forgetting that you know what's good?
If it's real hot now, that means the winter is going to be warmer.
And the winter is important because we're going to need fuel oil for that.
So it pays out.
Do you mind a warmer winter?
What?
Do you mind a warmer winter?
No.
Well, that's climate change, you numbnuts.
What do you think that is?
That's climate change.
It's hot now.
It'll be hot later.
It's vicissitudinal.
Climate.
Changes.
You know, seasons.
Hello?
Maybe you don't have to worry so much about Putin and his oil in the winter if we're going to need less of it because it's warmer now.
You only talk about global warming now.
You do know there's not necessarily...
People always talk about, oh, those sea levels are going to rise.
Okay, well, we're still waiting for that one.
Still waiting for that.
There's a picture I saw, which is the greatest.
I don't know how accurate it is.
It's the Plymouth Rock.
Basically at sea level from 1620, and it's still there.
Now, we've been through this before.
But these millennials, these Gen Zers, these folks walking around, something is so wrong with them.
I've got to tell you something.
Yesterday, Mrs. L and I stopped.
It was radio day.
I was her guest, by the way.
I'm going to post that for you.
It was a good one.
Anyway, we were sitting there and two young ladies, what were they in their 30s maybe?
You'd be young, 30s.
They were talking, and so help me God.
I was getting physically ill.
But they were talking like that.
And they had that kind of a verbal fry.
And then they had the lilt.
And I almost wanted to say, excuse me, you don't know me, but I'm your brother.
Taking it to the streets.
You don't know me, but I am looking.
To ban waterboarding and certain forms of torture.
And I've been trying to find something that is perhaps more horrible in terms of how injurious it is to the mind.
And I would like to record you speaking, if you don't mind.
Could I?
Because in the less than five minutes I've had to overhear you, my soul is dying because of this horrible, horrible...
Speech pattern that you have, which is just horrible.
I've never heard anything like this.
We remember Valley Girls, you know, before Moon's Apple.
We always kind of had that kind of, you know, kind of a hippie, you know, thing, maybe.
We've always had some iteration of, you know, youth speak.
This was something I've never heard.
Never heard.
So today we're going to be going through these various things.
I also want to tell you, I was watching and I listen to it so often.
I'm not one to really promote a lot.
I mean, I'm sort of...
I curse...
Francis Ford Coppola, he was talking about a Frank Capra movie that we saw last night called General Something's Tea, and he said it was one of the best.
This movie was so bad.
So bad.
I couldn't believe it.
It was so horrible.
So anyway, that's why I don't want to recommend.
But I can't say this enough.
Wion, W-I-O-N.
World is One News.
Comma, org, whatever, out of New Delhi.
Oh my God.
The English is perfect.
They have different pronouns.
Like, for example, they refer to the NATO.
Things like that.
They say things a little differently.
For example, they'll say, like, the budget for Rhode Island was $224 million, you know, versus $220 million.
But...
The English is superb.
Better than here.
Better than here.
And they do one explanation of Russia, Erdogan and Turkey, China, the new petrocracy, ESGs, what's going next, the decline of the once great America.
I mean, it is superb.
You can't get that anywhere.
What do we have?
Well, we have Josh Hawley.
Or somebody waving a flag.
Somebody you consider is your star.
Because you, I'm sorry, but you have this idea that somehow a CPAC convention is tantamount or is equivalent to political ideology.
It's not true.
I know you like people and I know you have your favorites and God bless you for that.
But that doesn't count.
Alright.
Now, very quickly I want to say something to you.
I need your help.
I need you to come to my help and our help.
What these folks are doing on Twitter to Mrs. L is not even remotely fair.
I want you to make sure you sign up for Lynn's Warriors.
I'm going to put it right here for you.
Because that's the way I want you to do this.
Because it is The stuff, you know, the information is superb.
The information is perfect.
The information is vital and critical.
She does the best ever.
And I don't want to mention, this is me saying, there are other people who don't know Diddley Squad about human trafficking, but are doing it because it's their chance to, hey, I want to be, this is my thing.
So I can use the word pedo every five words and use pedo as much as possible.
Oh, and grooming.
And they're killing it because it's more complicated than that.
So that's it.
Lens Warriors, that's it.
I want you to do this now.
It's more complicated.
It is a subject that requires...
Don't do to it what other people did to climate change.
It's not...
It's a horrible topic that requires a sober, adult, a very serious approach.
Okay, that notwithstanding.
Okay, don't forget, preparewithlionel.com.
Preparewithlionel.com.
Go there right now.
Go there right now.
It's food preparedness.
And also our good friends at MyPillow, promo code Lionel.
And where's everybody from?
Where's everybody from?
I love to do this.
I love to end with that.
Let me say, please, today is hot, probably where you are.
Here's some Lionel tips.
Avoid unnecessary flannel.
Men, as you know, there are certain aspects of our...
Oh!
Carol DeJong heard you yesterday on WVOX on Lynn's broadcast.
Yep, that was me.
We're going to be promoting that.
Thank you, Carol.
Men, as you know, certain parts of the body, especially during hot times, require a particular attention to thermal receptors.
Make sure that you keep handy, if you can, some frozen niblets, which always make a nice little cushion, if you know what I mean, for those hot, hot days.
Please keep an eye on the elderly, notwithstanding.
The fact that, how do you think they got to be elderly, but watch that.
Make sure you hydrate.
That way, say, stay away from alcohol.
I don't know about that.
Anyway, thank you.
Thank you.
Belgrade, Belgrad, depending upon, I don't know how you pronounce it exactly, West Jordan, Utah, Serbia, thank you, Myrtle Beach, Boise, Idaho, Mozambique, Irving, New York.
The heterogeneity, the diaspora, is something.
Alright, my friends, have a great and glorious day.
See you tomorrow again, 9 a.m. Eastern Time.
Until then, I remind you, as I always do, the monkey's dead, the show's over, see ya!
