EPISODE 8: THE MAN IN HIM (OCTOBER 18TH, 2023)

An unrelenting neck injury makes even the most reasonable empathy impossible for Steven today as he and the gang discuss Biden being old, Britany Spears abortion regret, and the Gaza hospital explosion. Oh, and a trans person. Big surprise. Check out and support the delightful individual they targeted this week at the link below.

	This is an AudioWool original.
	Peace.
	You're welcome.
	Welcome to Louder Than Crowder, a podcast about the podcast Louder With Crowder.
	My name's Byron.
	I'm joined tonight by Jared.
	Hello, that's me.
	I'm Jared.
	And Dennis is here too.
	Hey, yeah, I'm here.
	I'm playing with my little doll.
	You got a Kinder egg there, I see.
	I got a Kinder toy.
	It is the season.
	This is the Halloween episode, boys.
	Oh, spooky.
	Didn't even think of that.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Didn't write it into the intro.
	What are you gonna be for Halloween?
	I'm gonna be a dick for Halloween.
	I'm gonna be Gerald Morgan.
	Fuck you.
	See?
	Come on, man.
	Well, I was gonna be Gerald Morgan, too.
	I was gonna get a bad haircut.
	I was gonna do, like, some classes.
	I was gonna talk about conversion therapy to people I didn't know.
	Cool.
	It's always good to push that on strangers.
	Yeah.
	On Halloween.
	It's cool.
	All right.
	Although we had a lot of fun talking Steve's acting last week, we really messed up by skipping coverage of the show proper.
	What?
	Yeah, dude, this show.
	Proper?
	Yeah, the proper show.
	The show.
	Oh, the show proper.
	I thought you meant... You're fine.
	Wake up, Dennis.
	I'm tired, man.
	I know.
	This show's hilarious.
	It's great.
	It's my favorite show.
	What is that?
	What is that noise?
	No way.
	That doesn't help with neck injuries.
	Medical.
	Is that Kane from the WWF?
	Your neck is sore.
	You didn't lose the ability to speak.
	I just want an excuse to use the old Val Kilmer.
	You devil dog.
	Really funny stuff.
	His neck hurts.
	That's so scary sounding.
	Yeah, it's been acting up lately.
	It'll go away in a couple of days.
	Hey, comment below.
	There are only two ways to hurt your neck.
	How did you hurt your neck?
	Two ways?
	I don't know what that joke means, really.
	I just want to say to Steven, I'm really sorry about that car wreck.
	That's, I have to assume that's what it was.
	Sure, of course.
	He's got these kids, he has one car.
	That's tough.
	That's gonna be so hard.
	That's tough, that's so tough.
	Oh damn.
	And you know it's not the other one.
	So Jared, I know we locked in the October 18th episode of the podcast where Steven and the gang were set to discuss the Gaza hospital bombing, Biden things, and pop star Britney Spears' new book.
	But with the release of documentarian Dinesh D'Souza's new film, Police States, the film that Dennis and I were supposed to go to, we're gonna do the old virtual premiere.
	Yeah, we missed it.
	That's his movie?
	It's a Dinesh D'Souza-Bongino joint.
	Yeah, it's good.
	Did they collab?
	They did collab, yeah.
	That's so sick.
	So, Police States.
	I figure we should probably pivot and discuss the October 23rd episode where Dinesh talks all about it.
	Dang, I'm open for that.
	Yeah.
	Alright, welcome everybody.
	Obviously, Steven is out today, but don't worry, I am here taking the reins.
	I don't do the sip like he does it because... What?
	Let's just be honest, I think maybe I would choke on accidents and spit water out and, you know, we don't want to do that on a live show.
	Everybody's going to know.
	It's never gonna go away.
	It's just gonna live on forever.
	But just remember, this is a live show, Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.
	Eastern Time.
	We will be here.
	And I have a very special show for you today.
	I think you're gonna really enjoy the topics that we cover.
	And let me just, before we get too deep into this, let me just tell you a little bit about... Jared, I would not make us do a Gerald episode.
	I was like... No fucking way.
	Oh my God.
	How rude would that have been?
	But I did consider maybe doing the next episode.
	I mean, it's a Tuesday.
	We could have tackled the Monday episode, right?
	Yeah, yeah.
	And most certainly they wouldn't put us through Gerald back-to-back, right?
	Probably not.
	All right, Mug Club and everybody else, thank you for joining us today.
	We've got a great show for you.
	Did Steven quit?
	Ladder was crowded with Gerald.
	They have a sign-up for me over here.
	Spared no expense.
	You can't let people know you're here before I let people... Sir.
	You're still talking.
	It's still happening.
	Alright, thanks for joining us.
	Look, Steven is very, very ill today.
	He was doing illegal things yesterday.
	I think you all know what that means right now.
	And dealing with that is no fun.
	He was already sick prior to that, so we encouraged him to stay home.
	Trust me, he wanted to come in and be a part of the show.
	He misses you guys, and we'll be back tomorrow.
	Please don't take it out on me.
	Just stay here.
	Don't click anywhere else.
	We're not gonna do that, most certainly.
	Wait, so what what what days of the week were these ones?
	Dinesh was on earlier this week?
	That was last Friday or Thursday and that most recent clip was from Monday, of course Yeah, it was really fun for me to experience all that.
	But no, we're gonna we are gonna be covering the original episode October 18 October 18th, let's go!
	Now before we go I would like to say I mean that clip revealed a lot of stuff Yeah What the fuck is going on?
	Yeah, what is going on?
	Stephen hurt his neck, obviously, right?
	From a car accident.
	His head fell off, right?
	Allegedly.
	They said he was sick.
	He's so sick, so sick, so sick of being tired.
	And also tired of being sick.
	You can't keep quoting... Stephen will get it.
	Yeah, you're doing the same thing Stephen does when he quotes, like, Taking Back Sunday songs.
	That's for him, that's for Stephen.
	That's me and Stephen's inside joke.
	Your lipstick is color, don't bother a lot!
	I know exactly what Well, that's a lot of fun for you two, but damn, man, like, did he have a bender after a bad day at court?
	I mean, it could be that, or it could just be that he's feeling sad and doesn't want to do a show.
	Doesn't want to come to work?
	I hope that's what he's doing!
	I think that's appropriate.
	And it is a really tough situation, yeah.
	He's a victim of divorce.
	You guys, he was in a nasty car wreck.
	Yeah, he's doing legal stuff.
	You know what that means, right?
	He certainly was.
	This might not be the last time we talk about, you know, his feelings around his current situation.
	And I'll let you decide when we are actually rolling into that.
	But speaking of rolling in, you know, this comedy show... We have a value with this show.
	I'm actually really glad that we get to do this here in the morning.
	Sometimes we get to break news before other people do.
	And then sometimes with the evening news cycle, we have the value of hindsight.
	We're able to look at the story as it progressed and say, oh, people were wrong about everything.
	You were gaslit.
	You were lied to.
	So we don't have to jump on it and be first.
	We get to actually attempt to be correct.
	Sometimes they have the opportunity to break news before anyone else.
	Is he talking about when they did that really shitty undercover thing where they found out that like some company won an award?
	Kind of like the Alex Jones Infowars motto.
	Tomorrow's news today.
	Yeah, I don't think that they do anything like that, okay?
	Of course not.
	We'll get into it, but gotta introduce the crew, right?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Sitting third chair this week.
	Mr. DiPaolo, how are you, sir?
	Good, what happened?
	Sound just cut out.
	It is?
	Yeah.
	And your headphones?
	What the hell was that?
	Is somebody playing with me?
	It's Hamash.
	Can you hear now?
	I can't hear nothing.
	What is this, a Tandy product?
	What the fuck is going on?
	Why does this always seem so familiar?
	Well, because it happened during one of our episodes from a couple weeks ago to the Hodge twins.
	Either no one knows how to run headphones or the studio is trash.
	I think it's probably just that they thought it was funny one time, so they pretend forever now.
	Do you think they keep intentionally prevailing the show?
	Do you know how like- This is the They Kill Kenny thing that they do every time, is that they make the third chair have headphone problems?
	Look at this idiot.
	My shit's fucked up.
	It doesn't work.
	You know how when you go to a wedding and like an eight year old boy starts a conga line and then he tries to start a conga line over and over and over again?
	Sure.
	Yeah.
	That's this.
	Throughout the night.
	The joke's going to land eventually.
	I don't think it's a joke because I mean it is kind of embarrassing.
	Maybe it's a way to like neg third chair into being insecure and uncomfortable.
	Like it's just hazing.
	They purposely cut his headphones off.
	It's like the Eric Andre method, I guess.
	Like, you cause the problem.
	Remember when they talked to Alex Jones over, like, the Skype call and it was just, like, dog shit quality?
	Like, the whole thing.
	Sure.
	And he was a late or early... He was early and got booted out.
	Like, we don't need you here right now, Alex.
	Get the fuck out.
	Yeah, please get out of here.
	Even in that Gerald clip from the, I guess, yesterday's episode, when Brian Callen starts talking, he's like, Don't talk until you're introduced in front of the audience.
	Yeah, they're gonna get so confused.
	They're hearing my goddamn voice right now.
	But yeah, couldn't they just mute that guy until he's on?
	You would think that they could do that.
	It would make sense.
	He has a whole production team working, right?
	I don't know.
	This is all just... You guys have no clue how much garbage I say that just gets thrown on the editing room floor.
	Like, Byron's like a real class act on this stuff.
	Maybe he should get you a job at Crowder, like a little inside man, you know?
	You want an inside man?
	His work speaks for itself.
	Guys, um, I have to give it to Steve this week.
	Okay, why?
	He made an actually kind of funny joke.
	What?
	Yeah.
	Alright!
	Who was just breathing so loud that it rumbled my head?
	You know who it was.
	It was me.
	It was Nick.
	I'm in my late 90s, I got gas.
	You have awake apnea?
	I don't know what the hell that was.
	That's funny.
	Awake apnea.
	Awake apnea is funny.
	I agree.
	Yeah, it just would be apnea, right?
	Well, I guess.
	Jared, don't ruin this for me.
	Hey, you got bulldog face.
	You have sleep apnea and apnea?
	I liked it, dammit!
	Fuck.
	I really dislike apnea.
	It's time to get back to business.
	So here's a trans person.
	You know, you've heard of people being a beard?
	This is a trans person actually trying to hide their beard, as opposed to shaving, with pounds of makeup.
	Right now, I have a f***ing beard.
	But I have to leave the house today, so this is what I do... Because you're a man.
	Yes.
	That's what TJ Qualls has been.
	...introduce you all to the magic of a turtleneck sweater.
	Obviously, this covers up my Adam's apple and some facial hair.
	It's not your balls.
	How'd you get that sweater over those giant tits?
	So, wonderful, accidental, proper gendering from Nick DiPaolo.
	Also, it's DJ Qualls, not TJ, who's been doing some really great stuff.
	Buster's Malheart a couple years ago, the Fargo series, Creepshow, Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities, also Road Trip!
	It really does actually hold up.
	Good film.
	Oh, DJ Qualls, that's what it was?
	Well, no, it wasn't.
	It was, most importantly, a trans woman named Violet Stanza, who is- Okay.
	Lovely, fairly popular TikTok influencer and musician and definitely go support them.
	We're gonna have some links in the episode description.
	But yeah, there's no reason again for this segment beyond blatant transphobia and maybe Stephen feeling a little scared about finding this trans person attractive.
	Jared, you wouldn't know what this person looks like because you watch this on YouTube and I did confirm that the entire segment was self-censored as too hot for YouTube.
	Too hot, for sure.
	Too hot for YouTube?
	Well, you know the lovely music that plays over top signifying that you should go to Rumble.com.
	Yeah, where they can make trans jokes.
	Well, we're gonna make trans jokes.
	Thank you, Stephen.
	Thank you, Dennis.
	I guess I'd like to show you why.
	And while I have censored this myself, I think it's important to get this hate on the record.
	And women don't act that f***y. I know.
	Excuse my French.
	It's okay, we have the YouTube Dump Fund.
	No, it's okay.
	YouTube, rumble, we're fine.
	Get off YouTube.
	Let me do my f***ing act.
	Let me do my fuckin' act.
	Says a lot.
	It sounded like he said spuggin'.
	Well, he didn't do it.
	Like he couldn't even get the word out.
	Yeah, but man.
	What the fuck?
	Dang, that's your act then, huh, Nick?
	That's very good and there's a reason why you work with such great talent as Steven Crowder now.
	Many tips of the hat and many, many moons for you to keep on doing what you're doing.
	And I hope that.
	And I hope you are relegated to that until the good Lord calls you home, my sweet child.
	Yeah.
	Does he have a stand-up special I can buy?
	You can watch him on, like, uh, old Comedy Central.
	Oh, cool.
	Nice.
	I've been watching him on Pluto TV since, like, 1996.
	And now he's Stephen's third chair today.
	You know, I feel like I have seen Comedy Central presents of this guy.
	Oh, most certainly.
	Yeah, Nick DiPaolo.
	He was, I mean, at the time, he was a pretty popular comedian.
	I'm gonna look up a photo of him because I've never seen this guy before.
	Oh, really?
	I don't know what this is.
	I've never seen that.
	All right, well, while you do that... My heart goes out to Alex Jones.
	He was supposed to be here yesterday, and he was incredibly sick, and then I... It was like for one of those 24-hour bugs, only was about 12 hours.
	Let me guess, sore throat.
	Yes.
	Talks a lot.
	Oh, I know this fucking guy.
	God damn it.
	Very familiar with Nick DiPaolo, yeah.
	You know, a sudden illness by Alex Jones, as a listener of his program as well, I know that that's not always an accurate or true statement.
	He usually says he's sick to get out of things, but I was curious... Like paying all the Sandy Hook victims?
	Sure.
	That's one of the things he tries desperately.
	I can't pay this, I'm sick!
	I've had too much chili, folks.
	There was the chili.
	Yeah, he had a chili excuse during a deposition once.
	He had too much chili?
	It was weird chili.
	I don't know, man.
	He was at the Texas Chili Parlor, which is like a famous little dive you might know it from.
	Is that true?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Gosh, what's the Quentin Tarantino car movie?
	Why do I always forget the name of it?
	I actually like that one a lot.
	Pulp Fiction?
	No, no, no.
	Car movies.
	Grindhouse.
	Death Proof.
	Death Proof.
	Yeah, we got it.
	Boom.
	Thank you.
	Movie Man.
	Byron McCoy.
	That's all of it.
	He ate there.
	Then he had to go sit at the court, you know, a couple blocks away from the Texas Chili Parlor.
	Just north of that right there.
	And they're asking these questions.
	How old are your kids?
	They're like, what are your kids' names?
	I believe is one of the questions.
	And he's just sweating.
	Okay, what's your kids' teachers' names?
	What grades are they in?
	And he just, I'm sorry, your honor, I had...
	Too much chili for lunch.
	This was a custody issue, yeah.
	It did not go well for him.
	That sounds amazing.
	But I had to check, I was curious about his well-being, so I tuned into the Alex Jones Show on October 17th.
	Yeah.
	And uh... Is he fine?
	No.
	Rallying patriots worldwide in defense of human liberty, it's Alex Jones.
	Some of the comments were like a page long and I was just speed reading and I could speed
	I'm like, where are the attacks?
	And I saw this phenomenon.
	A few years ago when I was on Joe Rogan.
	I can't tell.
	I can't tell either.
	Honestly.
	Is he sick?
	I mean, he sounds always sick.
	Yeah, he never sounds well.
	So it's really tough to determine.
	I went through the whole three and a half hour broadcast and he ended up going 30 minutes into someone else's show.
	So he stayed late working.
	You would think that if he was ill, I mean, we don't really know.
	He would've sweated out.
	We don't really know what kind of eel he was.
	Still tried to make the trek, but you've heard me talk about this.
	He will leave me these voice messages as texts, and he leaves them as though he's talking with someone who's actually responding.
	I get them all the time, and this was the voicemail he left for me when he was on his way.
	At the tone, please record your message.
	Alright, Corrado, I'm on my way to the studio, but, uh... I don't know, I'm not feeling well.
	It could be some... bad clams, or... we don't know yet, but... Oh, guys, coming out both ends!
	I gotta go back. I gotta go back. I gotta...
	Aaaaaaah! Aaaaaaah! Aaaaaaah!
	Like, Alex, you don't need to narrate it.
	Yeah.
	Did they think that they needed to do a please leave a message thing?
	Like people wouldn't understand.
	They wouldn't understand there was a voicemail.
	Yeah.
	Were you calling him?
	Where's that beeping come from?
	I don't know.
	Is this a voice message?
	I don't understand.
	Is he here?
	I thought he wasn't here.
	Just a really trash comedy bit.
	Bad clams.
	He had bad clams in his pants.
	He shit the pants?
	He barfed too, I guess.
	Both ends, he said.
	He said he was feeling better and could come to the show, but they told him to stay home, which is kind of the theme.
	Like that's what the crew also told Steven.
	Yeah, they're just passing some shit around.
	I think that they all have COVID and they're just like acting like they don't because it's definitely not real.
	Well see Stephen had COVID and showed up to the studio every day that he had it as well.
	I mean it probably more accurate that like Stephen has brought like norovirus into the building with his uh you know kids.
	Alex brought it in and then Stephen got it so yeah.
	Either way, it's a fucking mess.
	I kind of like this show.
	So after that Alex Jones excuse, the boys tune into a live speech of Joe Biden, or at least a replay of it.
	Okay, of his Hamas-Israel speech?
	Yeah, and on the lower chyron, it said Biden says, if anyone else thinks about attacking Israel, don't, don't, don't.
	And they thought that that was worthy of making fun of.
	Hold on, so you're don't, don't, don't?
	We have that section.
	Do we?
	Alright, let's see how bad it was.
	My message to any state or any other hostile actor.
	Thinking about attacking Israel remains the same as it was a week ago.
	Don't. Don't. Don't.
	Nazis f**ks.
	Hmm.
	Sound, uh, soundboard op is on fire today.
	Did you hear what that was?
	Oh.
	Yeah.
	Between him and Nick, we have two F slurs in this episode so far.
	However, yes, Biden actually did say this.
	Kind of.
	What do you intend to say?
	What is the context of that?
	I've never even heard that.
	It's a, it's a clip from a speech in early 2021 that I dug up.
	What you saw on television.
	He's white, supremacist.
	Nazi sympathizers carrying Nazi flags.
	Okay.
	Oh, okay.
	So just a misspeaking but with what happened over the weekend in our hometown a bunch of Nazis in front of a synagogue protesting I was just that that struck a chord.
	I mean Biden was going out as a way to condemn hate and they for some reason think that that's like a good thing to clip out.
	Yeah, for how pro-Israel these guys are you think that they would like maybe not?
	Great point.
	One time when I was on the phone, I told somebody that it gets very cold in Cunt Bank, Montana.
	That's a big whoopsie there.
	Yeah, and I didn't lose my job over it.
	Good.
	So I don't think that we should worry about... Technically Biden didn't either, but I just think that this is stupid.
	Oh, it's very dumb.
	It's just poking fun at someone for a slip-up in speech game.
	A person who has a known speech impediment as well.
	But they use this as a launching board into one of our favorite segments.
	Yes.
	All right.
	So you know what?
	Let's contrast that with what is this?
	Because we had a bunch of this week in Biden.
	This is him speaking at a press conference and just it's our president.
	He's speaking with Benjamin Netanyahu trying to show support, show American strength and resolve.
	And here's what he had to say.
	This week in Biden.
	If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
	Sloppy.
	You know, years ago I asked the Secretary of State when he and I were working in the Senate to write something for him.
	He said, uh, he wrote a line that, uh, I think is appropriate.
	He said, uh, it's not, we need, uh, not just, uh, well, I won't go into it.
	I'll wait later.
	Taking too much time.
	If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
	Alright, we get it.
	He's an idiot.
	Great work.
	Yeah, thank you.
	Thanks, Steve.
	Thank you, Gerald.
	That was a really brilliant commentary.
	Gives us so much to work with.
	Are we making his show worse by having to do commentary to it?
	If they know about it and we're critiquing them.
	Us making their show worse?
	Yeah, are we making their show worse?
	Are they trying to, like, they're not saying anything so that we can't say anything about them either?
	I guess we're kind of zhuzhing it a little, but they are making our job hard, aren't they?
	It is hard, yeah.
	He's an idiot.
	Okay, let's talk about Biden.
	He's this.
	He's going through it.
	Yeah, and he's, I mean... Never mind.
	Pretty tired.
	He says it's taking too long.
	Hey, Netanyahu, this is, uh, um, you know what?
	I'm going to save it for later.
	It's kind of funny.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	That's, that's funny.
	I don't know.
	That's the whole situation.
	It's a Biden situation.
	I'm going to be honest.
	So far, the episode's been kind of a bummer.
	I haven't found anything about it that makes me feel like I need to even respond to it.
	I know, right?
	It's all just so, like, stupid.
	Well, we've got a fun night ahead of us.
	Yeah, we've got more.
	Men.
	This does bring to light some other issues that a lot of people sort of gloss over.
	Yes.
	You know, men's rights.
	Yeah.
	That's something we can look forward to tonight.
	One subset of people, as it relates to having children in this country, who have no rights.
	The mother has rights, and then the child, once they're born, according to the left, has rights.
	Often the father does not.
	So this is a flip side of that, but I do think that it exposes an underbelly that we need to know about here.
	Very weird phrasing.
	Because he always uses these stupid asides to like, the left wants you to think this, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, having to like put that in there, according to the left, about a fetus not having rights until they're born.
	Yes, that's how it is.
	Well, from general to very specific and famously specific.
	Is he in a custody battle right now?
	And is he losing insurance?
	Cause that's really just what it sounds like.
	We talked to that, he hired that wild lawyer the other week, right?
	The one, the gay rights lawyer?
	Yeah.
	Seems like things aren't going very well.
	He's got a lot of tension in his neck.
	All I did was just verbally abuse my wife and they're trying to take my kids away!
	This is ridiculous.
	Months.
	Years I was doing this.
	Yeah, right.
	So in her memoir, Britney Spears, we're using that term very loosely.
	We are, yeah.
	Memoir.
	Praised rambling, maybe?
	Yes.
	She talked about how she had to, or she was pressured to have an abortion at the behest of Justin Timberlake when she didn't want to.
	So at the time of recording, Steven couldn't have read any part of The Woman and Me.
	It hadn't been released.
	The excerpts and quotes that were released in advance, I mean, couldn't be considered crazed ramblings by anyone who actually read it.
	So why did they say it was crazed ramblings then?
	Because they're being shitty Low-hanging fruit pickers, you know, just yeah, I mean Britney's struggled with mental health issues and she had that whole conservatorship thing So, of course, we're gonna just assume that that's what's going on She said if it had been left up to me alone I never would have done it and yet Justin was so sure he didn't want to be a father at the time He was 18.
	She was 17.
	That seems like a tough thing to go through, right?
	Yeah.
	A couple of celebrity children.
	Celebrity teens.
	Fuck.
	This is something that they feel necessary to talk about.
	I just feel like that should be a conversation that we shouldn't be a part of.
	Buckle in, boys, because he's about to make a dang meal out of it.
	I mean, Britney did write it into a book.
	I mean, I track with that, obviously.
	And Jared, yeah, you're right.
	They're going to feast upon this whole situation.
	I just feel like it's easy to poke fun at Britney Spears because her mental health challenges have been so public.
	It is really frustrating.
	You know, the next clip is just a really dumb joke by Nick that I wish I could cut out, but you would lose the context for what is next, so apologies in advance for that.
	We love this, though.
	Well, yes.
	A lot of people don't realize, but she came up with the song, Oops, I Did It Again, in the waiting room at Planned Parenthood.
	No, see, that was Sherry.
	That was Sherry Shepard.
	Oh, was that Sherry Shepard?
	I'm sorry, I confused the two.
	It's easy to confuse the two.
	By the way, she's dead, by the way.
	Sherry Shepard?
	No.
	Britney.
	Britney Spears.
	You actually think she's dead?
	Now.
	This is what we love, not that other thing.
	Yes, this truly is.
	Wait, he thinks she was replaced?
	This kicks off some wild, serious discussion.
	And before we dive in, I gotta know, Dennis, do you think Nick believes this?
	That Britney Spears is dead?
	Yes.
	Do you have any other thoughts about, like, what the crew is going to respond with?
	I hope that they would all say he's fucking crazy.
	Sure.
	But I don't think they will.
	Hmm.
	Well, let's find out.
	Don't ask me how my wife follow- What?
	You guys follow- Well, you can't just say, don't ask me how.
	You cackling whores, I haven't finished yet.
	Feel free.
	Here's some more rope, Nick.
	Go ahead.
	All right.
	So again, this is kind of just a bit of a drumroll.
	Dennis, are you sticking with it?
	Do you think that Nick truly believes that Britney Spears is dead?
	And I want everyone at home to pause right now.
	Tweet us at Van Crowder.
	Let us know your thoughts too.
	What do you think about Nick's thoughts on the Britney Spears is actually dead conspiracy?
	When he said his wife was doing some research or whatever, it sounded very sincere.
	I almost looked up who his wife is.
	I'm going to save that for another day.
	Well, there's a lot going on.
	He has 10 wives.
	I don't think that's true, but let's move forward here.
	There's a theory online.
	Look, you guys read about MK Alter and all that shit.
	She was a Disney.
	She was a, you know what, right?
	The Disney Club and all that shit.
	They sunk their teeth into a lot of those people.
	She's one of them, and I'm not the only one saying there's a theory online, and people have time to follow it, unlike you and I. Half the videos you see today are not her.
	They're not her.
	She's been dead for a while.
	She's been dead for a while, Dennis.
	It's a fact.
	How'd she write the fucking book?
	She didn't.
	Actually, probably, she probably did have a ghostwriter write the book.
	Ghostwriter?
	It's a Halloween show.
	This is fun.
	Google it.
	Just Google it.
	Yes.
	We've got kind of like the undead spooky episode here.
	Yeah, he's going on one right now.
	Do they dismiss him?
	Or do they like... I mean, he's not done, of course.
	Don't take my word for it.
	Take the idiots online for it.
	But I'm telling you!
	Research!
	Get on this!
	I am telling you!
	I know the theory.
	I don't have to look it up myself.
	I had to cut the grass.
	I've spent time looking up the theory and no, I don't buy it.
	Steven's been researching if Britney Spears has been murdered or died and then replaced after she got MKUltra'd.
	He just admitted that.
	He like took some time.
	Yeah.
	What the fuck?
	DePaulo's been on one for a little bit, it seems, and Steven has looked into this.
	So we've seen the same video.
	Confirmation.
	Steven is aware.
	He might be skeptical.
	But Dennis, there is some really solid evidence.
	Do you want some examples?
	I do.
	Yes, please.
	Do you want to see a couple examples?
	Like, she put a picture up about a year ago of her at her wedding.
	She married that Sam whatever guy.
	And she's got all these famous people next to her.
	Jennifer Aniston and Madonna.
	And her hand is sinking into the Madonna's dress.
	You can tell it's pixelated.
	Well, that could just be because Madonna is basically zip ties and Play-Doh.
	Well, she's demonic.
	Maybe a Madonna thing.
	I'm telling you.
	Yeah.
	Can I see that picture?
	I don't want to look up the picture, really.
	It's not a picture, it's a video.
	I'm a photographer.
	I can dissect this.
	It's Paris Hilton.
	I don't know if we even need to... I don't know, it's just like a cell phone video, right?
	And she like moves her like right hand over in front of Paris Hilton.
	Her hand like blurs out like it turns into like a weird circle.
	Okay.
	And then she moves back and it's normal.
	Yeah, we're looking at it right now.
	I mean, it looks like a situation where a cell phone camera would be filling in pixels.
	Low light or something?
	Yeah, something.
	It looks like bad bitrate to me.
	Either way, I mean, this Grupa, it's not a great picture for anyone, let's be honest.
	She's obviously dead in that though.
	I mean, yeah, it does look weird, but like...
	That's sort of the same energy as like, watch this news anchor's eyes, they blink horizontally.
	Or when the Anderson Cooper's nose disappeared during the... Yeah, he turned into a ghoul.
	So I think, what I love about this theory is that I can understand if you think that she's dead.
	What do they think these other five people are posing with in this photo?
	Well, Selena Gomez is also Disney MKUltra, so she's dead too.
	Drew Barrymore is most certainly compromised.
	I mean, yeah, ET was real.
	Cocaine with ET.
	Yeah, sure.
	And speaking of aliens, look at Madonna.
	Look at Madonna.
	But Madonna almost died, didn't she?
	She did recently, yeah.
	That was scary for her.
	I mean, we can see her hand this whole time, there's no, I mean... It looks strange only because of the shitty quality of the video.
	It's a bad camera, yeah.
	But what I take away most is like, what do they think, do they think...
	It's a hologram version there?
	Well, don't say they.
	Stephen already said that he did the research and he says, no, it's not true.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	I mean, they as in the conspiracy theorists that believe this.
	Sure.
	Okay.
	Nick DiPaolo's wife.
	We skipped over them showing the video of her dancing with the knives.
	They're on some like, now that's some scary shit.
	I just wonder what they think.
	Do they believe that it's like another person or do they think that the videos are deepfakes?
	I mean, I've done podcasts on celebrity replacements and MKUltra.
	Yeah.
	I don't believe that stuff.
	But if they replaced her with another human, right?
	Yeah.
	Then why would the video be weird?
	I think they're saying it's a deepfake.
	I mean, there's... Then why do those people think they're replacing someone else?
	Only one.
	They put one replaced person into a group with four other famous celebrities.
	Four other largely famous, not even kind of, like significantly famous, and they're like, Who's this?
	And they're like putting their arm around nothing.
	Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking.
	It's such a weird, weird idea.
	Nick is just having a hell of a time.
	He's really good, though.
	Well, he's fine.
	He's a great comedian.
	Definitely the funniest person in the room.
	Definitely.
	I mean, that's probably true.
	Let's continue on to the... Napnia.
	Fuck yeah.
	Are we using that joke somewhere?
	Into the topic at hand.
	But this does bring us, you know, people talk and they get horrified.
	They go, oh, I can't believe that Justin Timberlake would, and I do, by the way, think that's a crappy move to pressure a woman.
	Yes, of course.
	Now that being said, on the flip side, and this is something that a lot of people have dismissed when people are discussing men's rights, there are a lot of men who have no legal recourse if they're in a consensual relationship with someone and the woman becomes pregnant and he wants to raise the child.
	This happens all the time.
	All the time.
	All the time.
	So I think he should probably cite those sources, because they're certainly not available on his website.
	Yeah, I mean he cited it right there.
	You've probably heard a lot of stories.
	Ask Time, because it's happening all the time.
	Maybe within his Christian fundamentalist community, maybe.
	But still, unlikely.
	There's something that Gerald says in a little bit here that's just like, when I moved to Texas, the amount of times that like, nothing against people that are down with their religions and stuff, that talking point is just like, ingrained.
	And it's a, I'll address it then.
	When we hit it, yeah.
	I mean, I'll just say that there are definitely at least some situations where a man does not want his partner to have an abortion and they have an abortion.
	Oh, most certainly.
	And I did actually, I looked for statistics on that.
	It's actually pretty hard to find.
	I'm sure that it is.
	But I mean, of course, we all like anecdotal stories we've heard here and there.
	Yeah, anecdotes is data.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I feel like you have to at least consider the fact that the guys aren't growing a fucking baby.
	No, but we'll get into that and we'll start with maybe the specifics surrounding the laws.
	And we know how much Stephen respects the laws, you know.
	And women.
	Yeah, especially the ones surrounding women.
	Even like his partner, who tried to try to, is currently leaving him.
	Currently leaving him and apparently making him do a whole episode about his lack of custody options.
	For example, the law does not require a spouse's consent for an abortion at all, or even letting him know in some states.
	It's considered unconstitutional.
	Which is true.
	There's a ruling.
	It's a woman's right to privacy in their medical decisions.
	So they have the, I guess, in a state where abortion is legal, that is their choice.
	It is.
	And that makes sense.
	I think that if you gave women the option to transfer the pregnancy over to their partner.
	Like in junior.
	Yeah, like in Junior, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito.
	If that was the case, I think you probably would be more apt to make some positive arguments in this space.
	Because the other point in this ruling was that the mother is more affected by the pregnancy.
	Kind of.
	Kind of more effective.
	Kind of, a little bit.
	I think it might be a stretch to say that.
	Like I said, legally, the woman, I mean, it's a medical decision, so she has the right to do whatever she would like in a legal state, which is becoming a rare situation, but... You know, this is so complicated.
	Yeah.
	Like, it seems so simple, but it's really complicated.
	It hasn't happened to me at all, so I have no real experience with this.
	But I'll tell you what, I know someone that it has happened to, fellas.
	Yeah?
	Yeah, me.
	And do you have a lot of child support payments outstanding?
	And let me tell you about child support payments, Dennis.
	No, I do not.
	The reason is because my former long-term relationship, an ex-girlfriend of mine, she had an abortion.
	She didn't tell me anything about it.
	And truly, that's her right to do that.
	It's totally fine like you know she had her reasons why she didn't want to tell me about it because she knew what she was gonna do when she found out and she took care of it the way that she wanted to take care of it and that's her right to do that.
	When I found out about it it was shocking and it really put like a It kind of put me in like a tailspin a bit because I didn't know how to feel about it initially but I came around that this ultimately is like yeah it's her decision and like what to me to me anyway that's totally the way it needs to be.
	I'm okay that I didn't have that choice because it's ultimately not my choice to make.
	What would you have named it?
	Oh, Jesus.
	All right, next clip.
	So, in other words, a man could say, okay, look, we both want to have this child, or you don't even want to have the child, but I will raise the child.
	That is my blood.
	That is my DNA, right?
	That is my heir.
	That is my lineage.
	I want this boy, girl, whatever.
	I hate lineage.
	No say.
	And your body is mine for nine months.
	Nine months.
	You are my oven.
	You get to cook up my blood.
	When he said lineage, it makes me feel so gross.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I'm not, like, passing any of that shit on.
	Like, I don't give a fuck.
	It's so strange to care about that.
	My family crest says that you have to have this baby!
	What the fuck, man?
	Fuck.
	Fuck.
	On the flip side of that, though, is we also have a lot of men who are saying, you know what, I'll pay double the state child support, but I need to be able to see that it's going to the child, not to the mom.
	So everyone in this equation has rights except for the father of the child.
	Men are effectively relegated to being walking sperm donors and wallowing.
	I wonder who's offering to pay double child support as long as he knows that his ex-wife isn't getting the money.
	Interesting.
	And when we're dealing, by the way, talking about child support, for example, 91.2% of the recipients are mothers, right?
	Mothers are the custodial parent 80% of the time, despite the fact that child abuse takes place to a higher degree in single mother households.
	So Stephen had court this week, for sure.
	He definitely did have court this week.
	That's why he was sick.
	Yeah, just that that slam-dunk statistic to like yeah, mostly it's women who are getting out What do you say alimony and 90% of the households?
	That's where abuse of children takes place in a single single family.
	Yeah Yeah, well, yeah 90% is alimony 80% is with the mom.
	Is that what it was?
	Did did he say that like most of the time the kids don't get the money directly and he thinks they should or something?
	I don't really know if he understands what child support's for.
	Yeah, of course it goes to the mother because they administer the care to the child.
	The care.
	Or vice versa, right?
	It goes to the parent to administer the care to the child.
	The custodial guardian, yes.
	Yeah, does he want to, what?
	You and I were talking about this.
	You've made the decision to have sex.
	Right.
	So the decision point was further back along the line.
	Nice.
	You make the decision to have sex.
	Nice.
	We don't know that she consented, but go ahead.
	Well, let's assume that she did.
	What the fuck?
	For the sake of argument, Brittany consented.
	Yes.
	Yeah, the old having sex means I should deal with the consequences argument.
	Also a nice rape nod by Mick.
	Yeah, what the fuck was that, man?
	I don't know.
	This show is not set up for comedy, yet they have comedians third chair.
	Like, remember the Hodge Twins episode from three weeks ago?
	Yeah.
	They said, like, three things, and then things got serious.
	At the very beginning of the show.
	And they sit silently.
	Nick refuses to do that, but when your joke is a consent joke?
	A pregnancy and an abortion?
	This isn't, uh, Murderer's Row, Nick.
	No.
	Come on.
	So, you know, Gerald goes on.
	Unless anyone else has something to say.
	Fuck, man.
	No.
	You choose to have sex and then a pregnancy occurs and you're completely pro-life.
	Right.
	And this person chooses to go a different direction.
	Like, that's...
	That's a huge loss.
	That's one of the things about having abortion for convenience, that society has kind of foisted on us a bit, that creates a situation where nobody wins.
	Damn, Gerald.
	Damn, Gerald.
	You had to hit him with the abortion for convenience thing.
	Back at it again with the abortion thing.
	Damn, Gerald.
	Damn, Gerald.
	Stupid.
	So when I stopped and talked to like the abortion protesters here, they mentioned that they thought most abortions were for convenience sake.
	Which is such an odd way to look at that, right?
	It's so fucking crazy.
	Yeah, it's so odd because nobody's like, hey, should I put on a condom?
	No, I'll just get an abortion next week.
	Yeah, I'll pay $500.
	How fucking inconvenient is an abortion?
	Right, that stinky dick of yours.
	A full medical procedure.
	What part of this is convenient?
	I don't understand.
	Regardless, nobody is out here just being like, oh, it's fine, I'll just get an abortion later.
	No.
	Nobody's having sex like that.
	Not at all.
	Not even genre-specific pornography or anything like that.
	It's just like...
	What the fuck does this guy think happens outside of his fucking glasses?
	You know what I mean?
	Outside of like the frames of those things.
	Everyone's a fucking sex addict out there and they're all just like doing the devil's damn work in front of him and he's just can't handle it.
	Speaking of the devil though, I do want to say like for someone who has these beliefs, I do understand that it's a traumatic situation to go through.
	I disagree with you and I hope that you change your mind at some point and also realize that, you know, Souls are real.
	Babies are just fucking cells.
	I don't know.
	But at the same time I can empathize a little bit for that perspective.
	I just wish that they would keep it to themselves.
	I can definitely empathize with a guy It's really complicated to discuss the rights of a man in this.
	was interrupted. Yes. I can empathize with that. That's a heavy thing. It is heavy. I also know that if I was going
	to have a child, I would hope that I wouldn't have to be starting it out with fighting about whether or not we
	should have a child. It should even happen. Yeah, yeah. You're not with the right partner. Yeah, it should be fuck yeah or
	no. That's it. There should be no in between. It's really complicated to discuss the rights of a man in this. They
	almost don't matter at all. Yeah. That's mean for men.
	That's what this whole segment's about.
	And no say.
	And that's totally fine.
	As far as the conversation goes, I think there are people allowed to have an opinion.
	That's fine.
	But ultimately, in practice, shut the fuck up, men.
	You know what I mean?
	Stand back, dudes.
	It's all good.
	Don't put yourself in situations that you can't undo.
	That's a pretty easy one.
	This is the one that they always come to, but ultimately like...
	That's kind of their like, having sex means I should deal with the consequences thing.
	Yeah.
	Which I don't know if I necessarily am always...
	And I mean like look like...
	It's a risk.
	Yeah, it's a risk to do this and it's like that's fine.
	I don't want to sound like I'm on their side or anything like that.
	Because, like, very much the opposite.
	Like, uh, go have as much sex as you want.
	Like, live your life and do it wonderfully and with consent and have fun with that.
	But that's why we need sex education that provides, uh, information on contraception.
	Absolutely, a thousand fucking percent.
	I mean, like, Gerald believes in, like, conversion therapy and stuff.
	So it's like, he's not the person to ask about this.
	But these are the guys that are discussing it, so at least we can do our good Samaritan stuff right here and say, like, no, they're wrong, actually.
	Like, men can sit down in this situation.
	Sorry, guys.
	I feel like most people agree that abortion isn't good.
	It's not a positive.
	Yeah, nobody wants to have them.
	Nobody thinks I would love to just, you know, fuck around and have a bunch of abortions.
	No one wants that.
	Yeah.
	When we talk about these situations, what we're talking about is like the best way to mop up boiling water when we should start with turning off the heat and stopping the boiling.
	The real way to address these kind of concerns is address things like sex education, contraception, how we handle consent in relationships.
	That is where we make real impacts.
	on how to make girls cum but it starts there just starts with
	how do we prevent unwanted pregnancy in the first place great that's where we
	can make an impact for everybody for every single person the funny thing is I've talked to people on the right and
	they're like well we can't educate kids about sex because then they'll start
	fucking a lot like they don't already
	ridiculous yeah um they're the ones that are always talking about human nature
	Yeah, yeah, for sure.
	And human nature is fucking.
	So if we can end unwanted pregnancy, then we will reduce abortions, which is really at the end of the day what people want.
	Yeah.
	And I'm sorry that Brittany has had a regretful experience.
	That's, that's tough.
	I know people who have had abortions that also not regret them, but it's an emotional, hard thing to go through.
	Yeah, it ain't easy.
	Yeah, it's rough.
	It's like a big, it's a big deal.
	Speaking of big deals, it's time to talk about the thing that we've been avoiding.
	Time to head to the Middle East.
	Okay, let's go.
	So this brings us to the story from yesterday, you know, Israel, Gaza, the hospital bombing.
	Exactly.
	I don't take the IDF's word for it.
	And by the way, military operations need to sometimes be covert.
	They need to sometimes misdirect.
	That's not the same as the media reporting something with no vetting whatsoever.
	So, uh, we'll talk through all this, but briefly, last Tuesday, October 17th, an explosion occurred outside the Al-Ali Arab Hospital in Gaza City, resulting in a large number of fatalities and injuries.
	And honestly, that's the stuff that really matters, but it doesn't really matter to Steven.
	If you were watching the news yesterday, right, late, early evening, I guess you'd say after dinnertime, right, you probably heard that Israel blew up a hospital.
	Now this is not, we know beyond any shadow of a doubt, to be clear, this is not true now, but there have been three or four different stories reported since then.
	When was this filmed relative to the attack?
	So this was less than 24 hours afterwards.
	Okay, so that was on Tuesday.
	Yes.
	This is on Wednesday.
	Okay, the big debate seems to be around the appropriate way to respond from Israel.
	Sure.
	That seems like the biggest debate.
	I think everyone would agree minimizing civilian casualties is important.
	Very important.
	I don't know.
	I mean, you know, obviously I've listened a lot about what happened at the hospital and I know the U.S.' 's stance on it and I know like... We'll talk about that as we go through this.
	It's kind of a walkthrough of the timeline, so... Okay, I just, I think that When I hear, I feel like there's a lot of bad faith arguments around it coming from Steven.
	He really seems to be thinking that this timeline is important and maybe we should break it down with him.
	Okay, let's do it.
	Break it down.
	So then let's go to about 8 to 9 30.
	Okay, local Israel time.
	9 30 p.m.
	Tweets, headlines all over blaming Israel for the strike.
	So the strike happened almost at 7 o'clock.
	Okay.
	And I love that they go Israel time.
	Israel time.
	Of course.
	It wasn't just influencers.
	Rashida Tlaib, member of the squad, right, tweeted this at 9.06pm.
	The timing matters.
	The timing matters, and you'll see why.
	Israel just bombed the Baptist Hospital, killing 500 Palestinians, doctors, children, patients, just like that.
	President, you know, POTUS, this is what happens when you refuse to facilitate a ceasefire and help de-escalate.
	So what happened, I mean, really quickly after The explosion was, you see this report, 500 people dead, a thousand people injured, and a lot of news reports were very quick to say that this was an Israel airstrike, which I mean kind of makes sense because they were striking from the air pretty frequently.
	Sure.
	Yeah.
	Sure.
	And this Rashida Tlaib tweet, I didn't pull the tweet exactly, but I do know that as of yesterday she is doubling down on her opinion surrounding this and it might not necessarily be correct, who knows, but she is skeptical saying, Uncritically accept Israel's denials of responsibility is fact, especially in light of confirmation from the World Health Organization that Israel has bombed numerous medical facilities in Gaza and reports that the Palestinian Red Crescent Society of ongoing threats from the Israeli military to evacuate hospitals.
	Both the Israeli and United States governments have long documented histories of misleading the public about wars and war crimes.
	And she goes on to talk about some assassinations of journalists and our entry into the Iraq War.
	Sure.
	Weapons of Mass Destruction.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Seems still kind of shitty to me.
	And we'll talk more about the evidence that says that this may not be accurate.
	And you know, honestly, I think it is important for us to talk about the things that Steven is saying that are correct, but I think it's more important to talk about the why he's framing them the way he is.
	And I also think that it's very important to say correct or not based on our understanding of the situation.
	Yes.
	But she immediately went to, and everybody went to this line, women, children, because they're telling us heartstrings of every single person.
	Pulled that quick one because I have seen them pull that so many times.
	Just earlier this week, right?
	They do it in fucking 10 minutes.
	Like they are always talking about women and children, but for them to say that this conflict, the way that it was being reported by Palestine, that that's inappropriate and that's pulling at heartstrings, no fucking shit.
	It's evil.
	That's why it's done.
	It's what the devil does.
	That's what they do too.
	Look, targeting women and children as Hamas does, as these Palestinian terrorist organizations do, is not the same as using violence to protect your women and children.
	I can use a gun to rape, I can use a gun to stop a rape.
	I can use a bomb to kill women and children, or I can use a bomb to stop the killing of women and children.
	That's reductive.
	Sure, I'm fine with it.
	Okay, glad you're feeling good.
	He's having a great day.
	He is fired up about this.
	Yeah, and I can't imagine, I skipped all of last week for the most part because I didn't want to hear them talk about this.
	It's all kind of exactly what I thought.
	I ended up having to go back and see if they were...
	Uh, using other great propaganda.
	Of course.
	Just curious.
	How'd he hurt his neck?
	During these initial reports, just to be clear, all of that information that you saw from the mainstream media came from...
	Quote-unquote the Palestinian government.
	That's what they said.
	Yes.
	You know what that means?
	Meaning... And this is at the same time the IDF said, hold on, we were investigating.
	This did not come from us.
	Yeah, but do you know what the Palestinian government means?
	Yeah, it means Hamas.
	Yeah, exactly.
	It means Hamas.
	They didn't put that on the lower third.
	They didn't say, Hamas says.
	They said, Palestinian government, hoping that you wouldn't make the connection that it's Hamas giving us all of this information that's false.
	By the way, the minute the sun comes up, you figure out it's false.
	Yeah.
	Super dangerous way to frame the whole situation.
	It really is.
	It's all just baby stepping towards like, um, all of Palestine are Hamas and all of Hamas are terrorists.
	And we need to eliminate all of Hamas because they're terrorists.
	So we need to kill all of them.
	It's the exact same way that they approach drag and transgender shows.
	Sure.
	Like drag shows, not transgender shows, but, but it's the same way that they approach drag shows, right?
	They act like Venn diagrams don't exist.
	Yeah.
	And by the way, just so you know, because people say, oh, not everyone voted for Hamas, it's not like a parliamentary system.
	Like, oh, Hamas, how many seats do we have?
	Will we have a veto power?
	It's all Hamas.
	It's all Hamas these days, guys.
	I like how much they love when he does accents.
	And everyone in America is all Joe Biden.
	We're all Joe Biden.
	Sorry, Steven, you voted for Joe Biden.
	We're Democrat, because the Democrats are in power.
	Exactly.
	Gosh.
	I bet you hate that, don't you?
	Not only is he a Democrat, he's also the most extreme radical left Democrat.
	He's Antifa.
	There we go.
	That logic says that Steven Crowder is Antifa.
	Yep, that's what we just learned.
	Here we go to 9.30 p.m.
	The IDF issued a report blaming Hamas.
	And they were saying, look, you can't just follow these tweets and just take them without any kind of a critical lens.
	Everybody kept blaming Israel no matter what.
	They didn't have all of the information, but they did say, we do know that this was not one of our strikes.
	But Ilhan Omar, after that, at 10.12 p.m.
	on X.
	Still, X'd out, I guess we don't say tweet anymore.
	Bombing a hospital is among the gravest of war crimes.
	The IDF reportedly blowing up one of the few places the injured and wounded can seek medical treatment and shelter
	during a war is horrific.
	President needs to push for an immediate ceasefire to end this slaughter.
	Russia Today had up there more than 500 people died in the hospital missile strike in Gaza with about 600 more injured.
	So the IDF said it and that means that members of the squad need to, you know, trust the IDF and believe that that wasn't
	a strike.
	Because the Israeli Defense Force, is that what it is?
	I think so.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	They said it wasn't, so it isn't.
	Right.
	And so, do you remember those 40 dead babies?
	40 dead babies?
	No, I forgot about those.
	None.
	So here's what I hate about this in general.
	There's a reason why we have the phrase the fog of war.
	Yes.
	It's because we don't know what the fuck is going on right now, and people will lie about shit, place blame on others, and we only learn the truth after investigations.
	And we're gonna have some really charged-up emotions about it in the meantime.
	We're going to.
	The expediency of media these days.
	Yeah, of course.
	It is a weapon.
	Do you remember when everyone was talking about how there was an Ebola outbreak at Burning Man?
	Yeah, and Brace Belden of the True Non podcast was the one that started that.
	And this, and exactly, and honestly.
	Shouts out.
	We just have to fucking chill.
	Listen to him on Guys Today.
	We do need to chill.
	We need to chill.
	I agree.
	I admit that I became pretty emotional when you see something like that.
	500 people dead?
	Yeah, that's that's what it's supposed to do.
	Of course, it did its job.
	Yeah, we have to agree.
	That's really fucked up.
	Yeah, let's make sure we investigate that and figure out.
	That's usually what I do is like who's saying that and where and that's like my next step.
	I don't blindly accept things.
	Yeah, and I'm not saying like it's Israel.
	I'm not saying it's Hamas.
	It's pretty clear at this point and we'll talk about that like they are fairly conclusive people like Reuters who are fairly reliable.
	So you think Reuters?
	Excuse me?
	Reuters.
	Reutrage.
	Reutrage?
	Yes.
	I mean, it's fairly confirmed that, and we'll talk about it as this goes.
	Look, let's just say at this point in time, Hamas says one thing, IDF says the other.
	You don't like Israel?
	Fine.
	You do have to agree that it's a 50-50 split.
	Now, I would argue, this is just a matter of opinion, that Hamas has a history of being slightly more dishonest.
	That's me, Mr. Traditional.
	So at 10 to 8 p.m., the BBC preemptively discredits the IDF reports live on air.
	Of course he believes that the people who believe different than him and look different than him are less reliable.
	Oh, Mr. Trad, damn it.
	Of course, yeah, absolutely.
	I wonder how they feel about Donald Trump immediately claiming the election was rigged.
	Well, that's all fact-based.
	Oh, yeah, fuck, sorry.
	It was self-inflicted, for sure.
	There is video, just to be clear.
	We don't know exactly who was firing, we don't know exactly the intent, but we do know that it was self-inflicted at this point, and we do know that it was not nearly as damaging as the initial report.
	So the initial report was dozens, but then 500 dead because of Israel and this massive bombing.
	Both of those are untrue.
	Now it's two Volkswagens and a Vesper.
	So funny.
	He does a pretty good job, right?
	How many clips have you seen that ended up being like old clips or manipulated clips off of Twitter?
	I've never seen that.
	In the past few months.
	Everything I've seen has been true.
	True and accurate.
	Not fat chance.
	But Steven saw one video of a rocket going astray, hitting around where the hospital is, time stamped around the same time.
	So case closed at 1030 that night, is what he's saying.
	It's all figured out.
	It just takes like two hours.
	Well, I mean, he was right, at least from everything I've been able to read.
	My understanding is that the Pentagon basically said, we've done all of our research and this came from Gaza.
	Yeah, it was coming from within Gaza and it appeared to be a rocket that, you know, it was fired, I think they were saying from a cemetery behind the hospital, just kind of went up and went back down and had a lot of fuel on it.
	And that's why it...
	You know, the whole argument was like, these aren't rockets from Gaza because Gazan rockets don't do a lot of damage.
	Apparently there's a lot of fuel in this rocket.
	It's like the jet fuel can't melt steel beams argument.
	Sure.
	Basically.
	I mean, a lot of people on Twitter are doing some thinking, you know?
	They're closing all the browser windows of Britney Spears dead.
	Question mark.
	Got a new one to check out.
	Gazan fuel.
	How hot does it get?
	How hot does Gazan fuel burn?
	So at 10.57pm, Israel and they provided video and this is the thing they have to provide video because they won't be believed They provided CNN with the evidence the bombing was a failed rocket launch By and I know this sounds very generic because when I say Palestinian Islamic Jihad, that's actually the organization Yeah, it's like it's like was it president-select version of terrorism.
	It is.
	Yes.
	It's brand-name terrorism Yeah, you could do it like you're all Islamic Jihad You can't just add a regional title!
	I don't know how he doesn't pick up that this is just so ridiculously, blatantly racist.
	Like, he thinks it's subtle, but just because it's Islamic Jihad, he's like, oh, that's generic.
	Uh, what about, like, Patriot Front?
	Or, like, every other variation... Proud Boys.
	Yeah!
	Of these pro-American... I mean, I mostly know the hate groups and militias, because that's what I study.
	Yeah.
	But, like, what a fucking piece of shit.
	Yeah, it's such a shitty way to act like there's no difference.
	Yeah, it's all the same.
	Yeah, it's shitty.
	It's all the same shit.
	And he does another one of those later in the show that is pretty outrageous.
	So I find it funny how immediately trusting he is.
	There's video!
	There's video!
	From Israel.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Given to CNN, a network that he traditionally called the Clinton News Network.
	I believe he calls it a low-quality clip when he shows it.
	And it is a low-quality clip.
	They show three clips that are all like, I think, Nick DiPaolo comments is, what is this?
	Ring doorbell?
	Yeah.
	It's not sure.
	They're not good, but that's why they shouldn't be reporting on this.
	They need to wait.
	Just pick up the mantle and uh, you know, don't cover breaking news as it's happening.
	It's probably...
	People are so hungry for the truth.
	They want it earlier and like, I'm not sure freaks them out.
	It's the same reason that people find God and love God.
	Uh-huh.
	Right?
	Because it's certain.
	Yeah, because it's certain and they want certainty.
	They want truth.
	Certainty in the uncertain.
	Yeah, and so instead of being like, hey, let's, you know, pause a bit and let's gather all the pieces and then we'll start building the puzzle.
	Yeah.
	Rather than being like, All right, I got one piece.
	Oh, it's red.
	It must be a red lollipop.
	Nope, shit.
	It was a Skittle.
	You're hungry, aren't you?
	I don't guess.
	Sweet tooth.
	I want sweets.
	But it's just, gather the pieces and put the fucking puzzle together.
	Don't try and build it as you gather.
	So Israel provided this evidence that the bombing was failed by that organization.
	And here's, it's a low quality clip, but we'll give you some more evidence after this was provided.
	But the important fact that I can say now for the first time on CNN is that we did not strike that and that the intelligence that we have suggests that it was a failed rocket launch by the Islamic Jihad.
	Ah, there you go.
	There we go.
	He said it!
	He said it!
	Okay, listen.
	Straight out of the guy who's denying it, he said he didn't do it.
	You guys heard him, right?
	Yeah, I did.
	You guys heard him, right?
	Yeah, so that's the low-quality clip with confirmation directly from the horse's mouth.
	Yeah, I mean, the only thing I'm criticizing here is how Stephen's interpreting this information.
	Exactly.
	It's the same reason who say Trump says he didn't steal the election.
	So do we need to say anything else?
	You have to eliminate your bias when you're getting this information.
	Is there anything funny about this Jared?
	Is there anything funny about...
	I'm just waiting for you to say something funny.
	Oh, uh... You know, I'll tell you a fun and funny thing.
	Sure.
	Oh god, fuck, shit, now you've fuckin' backed yourself into the fuckin' corner, I think, Jared.
	Let me give you some more information here, okay?
	The following information, just so you're clear, all the references are made available at louderwithcredit.com, link in the description.
	It's all from Open Source Intelligence.
	I think the account is OSINT, I believe, on X.
	It is not OSINT on X. It is a variation of that, and this open source intelligence has been widely criticized for just copying and pasting information it finds in other places on Twitter.
	It's open source, dude, so it's good.
	Okay, trust me.
	It's like all those open source flashlight apps I download on my Android.
	What the fuck is he talking about?
	This is like... It's like, you know, freeware.
	We're playing Teen Agent on the, you know, the Windows 3.1 machine.
	Of course.
	In your dad's basement kind of thing, you know?
	This is like... It's most certainly someone's dad doing this as well.
	Fenced and loose.
	It's a very popular account.
	It's open source.
	I think it's like in the hundreds of thousands.
	Yeah, that's because anyone can post.
	It's open source.
	Yeah, but it's verified.
	It's like Wikipedia for Twitter news.
	But he's copying and pasting it.
	Yes, he is.
	There you go.
	You see that?
	Now don't believe your lion eyes and ears.
	And by the way, Andrew Tate, I will say, he reached out, he tweeted me, X'd me.
	Look, I don't want to start, because he was pretty respectful, and actually he has some points in his criticisms that I think are misguided, but valid.
	So I'd like to invite him on the show.
	But he was arguing that Hamas, and a lot of people make this argument, they don't have a powerful enough Military.
	They don't have that kind of artillery.
	Yeah.
	And Stephen Crowder takes a turn directly back into the manosphere.
	Yes.
	This is a swerve that I'm really excited about.
	I really hope you're on the show.
	But it's certainly the only time that they're going to talk about this, right?
	Yeah.
	So Andrew Tate said Israel admitted it.
	No.
	I don't know what that's coming from.
	Hamas rockets are not that powerful and the servants of the... Beneficent.
	Beneficent?
	Is that what it is?
	I have no... Beneficent guys.
	Are they who walk on the earth in humbleness.
	Admit you were wrong.
	Thousands of children dying.
	Is peace worth a conversation yet?
	He got tripped up by Andrew Tate's vocabulary, which is kind of fun.
	I mean... He just big worded him.
	Yeah.
	He hit him with a city's name.
	Did either of you guys see the picture from the press conference from the hospital?
	No, I didn't.
	The guy like speaking at like a pulpit.
	Uh-huh.
	And there's like bodies all around him.
	It's not important.
	In his tweet, the last thing on the world that I would think of when I think of Andrew Tate is humility.
	So I have some issues with you, sir, as well.
	But it's peaceful and it's fair.
	It's just like, come on, you're quoting a verse about humility?
	You know who you are, right?
	Well, he has like nine Lambos.
	You were about to say something there.
	I'm just saying when you blow something up, if you hit a gas station with a missile, Even a crappy one?
	Yeah.
	It's going to be a huge explosion.
	Yeah, it doesn't even matter if it's sitcom.
	It's going to be huge.
	Sorry I cut you off there.
	Just really important, you know, more discussion about Andrew Tate.
	I just want to hear more jokes about the gas station.
	Wait, what?
	Out of bed at all.
	The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all.
	Dear Mr. Plenty, you quote tweeted me.
	Now I want to hang.
	I followed you and now my DMs are open.
	Please slide in, Andy.
	Don't leave me on read.
	I made two, maybe three or four requests for you on this show back in autumn.
	You must have not got them.
	There was probably another problem with Elon or something.
	Anyways, put me in your Ferrari.
	We can drive fast and be best friends.
	Love always.
	Signed, Da Big Ugly.
	I forgot about the Big Ugly already?
	Great work, by the way.
	Bugatti, not Lamborghini.
	That's his obsession.
	Bugatti?
	Bugattis.
	It's all cars to me.
	We could probably find some good Bugatti rhymes.
	Bugatti, nasty body.
	Bugatti feeling naughty.
	Mr. Plenty.
	Moving away from Andrew Tate, of course.
	Okay.
	As a small aside, Andrew Tate did, he talked about, yesterday we had a segment on the show, Mug Club specifically, regarding the Quran being incompatible with the constitution, western values.
	And I will say, Andrew Tate had a valid criticism saying yes, that Islam does not tolerate the current state of the United States.
	Now, I've said this, that is true, if you're talking about the Quran and Islam not tolerating drag queen story hour, I get it, you have a point.
	That's misinterpretation of what we were discussing.
	What I was saying was that the Koran is incompatible with the First Amendment.
	So not what we are living out in the United States today, which I get.
	I don't want to export this culture right now.
	American culture was a great thing to bring to the rest of the world when it involved freedom.
	When we were a Judeo-Christian nation.
	That's a valid point from Andrew Tate.
	What I am saying is go back to the founders and the Quran is certainly not compatible with the First Amendment, with the Second Amendment.
	You think Jews and Christians are going to be allowed to have guns under Sharia law?
	No, they have a curfew, dimitude, and a poll tax.
	So I guess he's assuming that Andrew Tate is a member of Mug Club and listened to their discussion.
	I mean, a lot of other celebs are in Mug Club.
	I actually would be very curious to know.
	Dennis Quaid?
	Of course, it's Randy Quaid.
	We know it's Randy Quaid.
	Randy Quaid's a lunatic conspiracy theorist.
	What?
	Yeah, who's that?
	It's the better Quaid brother.
	I only know Dennis.
	Randy Quaid, he plays the uncle in National Lampoon's Vacation.
	Randy Quaid?
	Independence Day?
	Is it Randall?
	Yeah, Independence Day.
	He's the scientist.
	Oh, the scientist is fuckin' sick, dude!
	Yeah, well, he's not anymore.
	He's a pro-Trump lunatic on the run in Canada.
	He's not a scientist in Independence Day.
	He's the guy who fuckin' kills all the aliens.
	No, you're right.
	He is not the scientist.
	He drives the plane.
	He's the washed-up pilot.
	Yeah, no, that guy fuckin' blows.
	Saves the world.
	The scientist, though, is sick.
	The one who gets choked out and is like... Dr. Oaken.
	Oh, he gets slammed up against a glass.
	Yeah, with Will Smith there and him blastin', dude.
	Yeah, that's pretty cool.
	All right, moving away from Andrew Tate, of course.
	And to be fair, Andrew Tate was pretty respectful in his disagreement, so I'd love to have him on the show if you would like to.
	I know we've kind of missed each other.
	I should have waited.
	I think it would be a lot more productive than the terrorist who was on Piers Morgan.
	Piers Morgan has actually had a lot of opposing viewpoints on lately.
	He had Ben Shapiro, he had Hassan Piker on his show recently, so it is interesting.
	I recommend you guys go check that out.
	I don't know.
	Sorry, which show?
	Piers Morgan Uncensored.
	Oh, I watched the Hassan, yeah.
	It was kind of interesting.
	I mean, Pierce is the most fence-sitting centrist I've ever experienced in my life.
	Yeah, yeah.
	He's kind of a goon.
	Yeah, a bit of a goon.
	But it's interesting, I guess.
	Yeah.
	And hit the like button if you would like to see, you know, me and perhaps one of the Tate brothers have a conversation on that.
	Again, I don't want this to be one of those, oh, you know, drama clickbait things.
	No.
	He was respectful in his disagreement.
	I think his criticism is valid.
	I think it was misdirected because that's not the point that we were making.
	We got to get past this Andrew Tate stuff.
	Man, they really just hammer it in.
	I thought I was like, I should have said really like five or six times like this.
	Yeah, you're gonna rewrite that verse.
	Back to the situation at hand.
	So the IDF is corroborating, the OSINT is just like, this is what's publicly available, it's not a specific account that's OSINT on there, there may be one of those, but it's like all of these different accounts out there saying, wait a minute, we have aerial footage now of the hospital that was supposed to be bombed, that five or six hundred people were supposed to die in, except the hospital's still standing, and it looks like five Kias blew up in the parking lot, and then the IDF comes out and kind of corroborates that.
	So that's what we're seeing right now.
	Joke's on you!
	I'm a Hyundai man!
	Oh, fuck.
	Now.
	Great.
	This was like really exhausting watching this shit.
	Like Gerald is like so animated.
	He's gesticulating wildly about all this.
	And he's just, I mean, yeah, he's sweating it.
	And it's like, honestly, man, like they just go round and round and repeat themselves for 20 minutes about this shit.
	Well, this is interesting because this is part that they, for some reason, saved to the end, but I think it's probably kind of the most important thing that they continue to minimize.
	They say, it wasn't the hospital, the hospital's still standing, there's a couple blown up cars in the parking lot.
	Yeah, yeah, never mind the people in the parking lot.
	Oh, you mean the thousand people that were in the parking lot because of the situation?
	Well, I thought it was only 500.
	We're not even saying it's a thousand.
	Oh, 500.
	It was a thousand were in the parking lot.
	These are, to them, these are not people, right?
	Like everything is Hamas now.
	It's just a parking lot is their stance and...
	A lot of people in those cars.
	I mean, people could have died, yes, but... Of course people could have died, but the idea, again, the first story that you heard was Israel targeted a hospital and killed 500 people, 600 more injured.
	That was a story that you heard.
	At the very least, we know that that death toll is inflated.
	At the very least, we know that it was not a rocket fired by Israel, and it seems as though the hospital may not have actually incurred that much damage.
	Again, minimizing this as just a couple people may have died in the parking lot.
	That's where the stray missile did hit.
	And that just so happened to be where near a thousand people were sleeping because this is the only safe place.
	They're displaced.
	They've been displaced.
	They're in their cars.
	They're sleeping on the ground.
	And a hospital, which is a place that, I mean, during war should be considered not a target.
	A lady on the bus once told me the hospital is the most devil infested place in town, though.
	Interesting.
	Was she doing okay?
	Seem pretty smart.
	You're right.
	She made a very good point.
	I'm thinking about that point.
	I'm probably not going to be riding a bus anytime soon.
	Yes, probably fair.
	No, I agree with you that they are minimizing this, but it's just... They're ignoring it almost entirely.
	Like the truth about what happened.
	No one is saying that nobody died there, right?
	Except for them?
	They're saying people may have died.
	People may have died.
	There's fucking photos of dead people by podiums.
	Like, I don't...
	What the fuck, man?
	On the October 11th episode, when I was kind of just looking back to see what they had said about this stuff in regards to Israel, I already knew where they stood on it.
	Of course.
	But I was just curious what explanations they've used.
	We've seen in the past where we're listening to an episode and they'll say one thing and then a minute later we'll literally say the opposite the next and this is only like episode 9 we're recording right now so this is a very common thing that they do it's easy to see so go back to this October 11th episode and they are in reference to Hamas imagine someone comes into your house and murders and rapes and then tells you to be back tomorrow to do it again I don't know if you pulled this clip but like right after where we are right now anyway so if it's a giveaway like I apologize but it's not really giving away much but Gerald says something to the effect of a car or at least cars got blown up maybe somebody did get killed that's a tragedy I understand that but this story is still being pushed out there as though there's something nefarious going on from Israel to this hospital or that five or six hundred people potentially dead the Mideast is reeling how about the Mideast is waking up and finding out it was it was a goof it was a hoax
	No, they launched a rocket and it failed.
	Don't you just miss Donald Trump as president at times like these?
	The world woke up today and found out that Hamas are lying assholes.
	Isn't that right?
	No hospital bombed by the Jews.
	That's something.
	They said, could you believe it?
	I said, yes.
	That might not have been the clip that you're looking for.
	No, that was not the Gerald clip.
	Well, I'm sure we'll get to that one eventually.
	I pulled... For some reason, every time this guy opens his mouth, he says something super fucked up.
	So, promise you, we'll get to that.
	He's definitely overly animated about something that he has a tenuous grasp on himself, it feels.
	But Nick is a little bit out of the loop, which is kind of a...
	I'm not surprised.
	That's a third chair attitude.
	Isn't hummus that dish I get at the store?
	That's pretty close.
	You said it wasn't the idea of who corroborated it?
	There's a pretty good Twitter profile that we follow.
	No, no, no, no.
	I don't think OSINT's the account.
	I think it's War Something.
	Tell us what it is.
	War Monitor or something like that?
	Might be War Monitor.
	Yeah.
	But they're very clear.
	That's an actual thing.
	Yeah.
	Open source intelligence.
	It's not IDF yet.
	It's open source.
	They use open source intelligence.
	Correct.
	Yeah.
	That's just a bunch of people on the ground, reporters, other people putting out information.
	And then you have the official sources from IDF that come in and back that up.
	This is like their cue, basically.
	Oh, it's this cool guy, Warm Monitor, and it's not just Warm Monitor, it's Warm Monitor 3, is the person that they're following.
	And this is the account where people just are brutally saying that this is the least credible source of information, saying they're just simply copies, pastes, and reposts, often word for word of unsubstantiated gossip and rumors.
	Nikonrumors.com.
	We're talking about the latest and greatest in camera technology.
	Yeah, they just link lots of weird random stories and shit.
	Interesting.
	Lots of people saying that.
	I unfollowed this guy a long time ago.
	People openly criticizing.
	Yeah.
	Not a surprise, I guess, that Steven and the gang are following this fucking Twitter account for their war news.
	I just... Also the Twitter account is very pro-Ukraine, which is... Is it?
	Yeah, kind of interesting that they choose to do that.
	I just want people to be calm.
	Yeah, well, we're a little bit away from that.
	I know.
	And Hamas is basically thinking, okay, well, what do we do with this story?
	Now that we see that it did hit close to a hospital, how do we make the most of it?
	And this is the same media, by the way, who said that Donald Trump was so irresponsible that he inspired 9-11-2 right January 6th.
	What do you think happens when you cover Tucker Carlson style.
	Think about it for a second.
	saying that Israel bombed a hospital targeting women and children. Are there
	any consequences? Is that not worse than make your voices heard peacefully and
	patriotically? Think about that for a second. Why are you not held to the same
	standard? Tucker Carlson style, think about it for a second.
	Yeah and then he definitely goes on to like show a bunch of protest footage
	which there's already kind of seeds of frustration amongst pro-Palestinian
	protesters.
	I think this is another major case of just Stephen having this weird binary thought about things.
	Yeah.
	You know?
	Who's the winner?
	Who's the loser?
	Who's the bad guy?
	Who's the good guy?
	It's not that simple.
	Especially not when you ignore the entirety of the conflict.
	Like you, you are literally, uh, you're Steven Crowder and you're looking at the last two weeks.
	This is the entirety of the conversation, right?
	I mean, they do, they do a bit of a wrap up of what we missed and we'll get to that in a second, but.
	They're going to use all this footage.
	See, the world said this.
	They're never going to run the correction of the story.
	They're going to just use this.
	So it wasn't just last night, and it had bigger consequences with a planned summit.
	Yes, there was a King Abdullah II of Jordan.
	I love that title.
	It's like the Iron Sheik isn't even satirizing these people anymore.
	You're a jabroni!
	So he called off the summit that was scheduled today with former Vice President Biden, the President of Egypt, and the Palestinian President.
	It was called off.
	So of course that's them being, you know, racist again.
	Anything that sounds Middle Eastern is a caricature of, you know... Yeah, I mean he's just doing South Park.
	That's his whole thing, right?
	Can I quickly share an article here from CNN?
	Forensic analysis of images and videos suggest rockets caused Gaza hospital blast, not Israeli airstrike.
	I see that.
	NPR, what new analysis shows about the Gaza hospital explosion?
	Washington Post, New York Times, NBC Vanity Fair.
	Is he surprised that the morning after, he is so certain about what happened?
	They'll never retract this.
	No, they'll never.
	They only will do that actually a few days after.
	Politico, New York Times admits error in Gaza hospital report, BBC News, Al Jazeera even, investigations reveal discrepancies in Israeli's Gaza bombing.
	I think that Stephen's just learning a lot about how people learn things.
	When they learn new things, they have new ideas.
	I think that's what he's figuring out.
	Obviously, our rush to blame and our rush to judgment will always be bad.
	It'll never be good.
	I wonder if they'll retract their skepticism of retraction.
	Yeah!
	We're calling on you right now, Mr. Crowder.
	Retract your skepticism about retraction from other sources.
	No, the mainstream media is a bunch of lamestream medias and they don't ever do anything right.
	Pluto TV is true media.
	Thank you!
	Someone had to say it.
	It's at this point in the show where we kind of speed run through, I think, what we've truly missed in the past few weeks.
	So this will catch us up on their perspective about this conflict.
	You ready?
	Yeah, I'm ready.
	If he says Nickelodeon, stop down because I...
	Got a little something about myself.
	You bet I will.
	Calling for a ceasefire after the kidnapping, raping, murdering, decapitation of innocent people is calling for the encouragement of unfettered terrorism.
	Once people have been terrorized, you don't get to call a ceasefire before justice.
	The question is just what is the appropriate justice?
	Which, yeah, what is... That is the biggest question is what is the appropriate justice here?
	And it is a really tough thing to determine, especially this close to a tragedy.
	It kind of feels like Stephen is into it.
	He's encouraging of the loss of life.
	Israel absolutely has the right to defend themselves.
	Calling for a ceasefire at this point, I would argue, is evil.
	Sometimes the idea of peace is evil.
	Just give peace a chance.
	Hold on, hold on.
	Women and children raped, murdered.
	there's a reason that we all the one thing that we can all agree on all these
	all these you know Ibramic religions as people say even though we discussed the
	differences yesterday Islam Judaism Christian we do believe that justice is
	important and certainly as it relates to governing a society we can all find
	common ground on that and there is no Judeo-Christian system of justice that
	involves people committing mass murder getting off the hook completely
	unfettered there's no appeasing a terrorist Hamas doesn't want peace.
	You can have a one-sided negotiation and browbeat Israel into kind of having a peace where they just have to wait to get attacked again before they can defend themselves.
	They don't want peace.
	Stop talking about, hey, let's just have peace in the region.
	No.
	How is Hamas different than Nazis?
	Well, the big difference is they don't hide it.
	At least the Nazis tried to say, like, no, no, look, look, this is fine, they're just taking a shower!
	Yeah, that's true.
	We've got Uncle Tired from Thanksgiving speaking up real quick.
	Nazis?
	Roses?
	Turn up the game.
	This is not going to stop ever.
	Israel could do everything.
	Here's one thing that I will say, the big difference between them and Nazis.
	And I'm saying this because I'm trying to be as pragmatic as possible.
	I think it changes our approach.
	this. These people don't want peace. They don't want land either. They want Israel
	gone. They want the Jewish people dead. Well I do, here's one thing that I will
	say, the big difference between them and Nazis, and I'm saying this because
	I'm trying to be as pragmatic as possible. I think it changes our approach.
	It's almost the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath.
	Hitler was a Just to be clear, just so you know, Hitler bad.
	But Hitler, as bad as he was, he did believe that he was doing what he thought was best for his people, a very limited sect of people, Aryans exclusively, and he wanted to protect them.
	Whereas Hamas just kill everybody.
	Hamas doesn't value the lives of their own Palestinians.
	In other words, the reason that Hitler was defeated was because at a certain point the
	casualty numbers are so high where he doesn't want all the people he presumably cares about
	to die.
	That is someone who you can defeat.
	When Hamas says, you know what, we are going to use our people, they don't have a people.
	They don't respect, it is a death cult.
	And I'm not going to go, should I?
	Does someone want to turn on, like, the Hamas bad?
	I don't think it's super necessary.
	But I also don't know if Hitler cared about his people and that's why he, what, like, ended the war?
	No, he, like, cowered in a bunker and killed himself.
	He's doing math.
	He was fucking, that dude was like on one.
	What kind of honorable like pro-german stance does Stephen think that this needs to go down?
	I don't know.
	I mean you get into like all this like weird World War II.
	I don't even think we need to go down this.
	It's just a bad analogy.
	The most important part of this clip is is saying I don't know why they feel the need to cloak this and They're saying all Palestinians are Hamas and that they will never stop so they all need to die.
	They don't want anything they just want Israel to be gone and there's like there's some truth to that right like they've wanted Israel to be gone for uh you know decades and decades and decades and decades but uh you know never mind any of that shit it's just like You can't talk about any of this shit without like having to like look at the entire picture of it like these kids grew up other statistics going around that like 50% of all of the people that are living in Gaza are children and the entirety of all of these people's lives have been under surveillance from like drones that
	Something I heard that like stuck with me a little bit earlier this week was that people don't realize that like what the sound of Gaza is and it's just a bunch of whirring from drones flying around the sky.
	Yeah.
	It's not post-traumatic because it's like current, right?
	Like it's like what you're constantly dealing with, so you're constantly looking out.
	I would guess so, something like that.
	And it's like the, uh, the curse of, uh, constant vigilance on just staying alive as a child is horrific.
	Right.
	And so like to ignore that in this commentary would be irresponsible.
	Yeah.
	And that it's coming from Steven in this way, that's no surprise.
	You just can't take what he's saying at all seriously.
	I don't know anything about this.
	I'm ignorant to this and I have first world problems.
	I had to buy a new phone, an iPhone 15, the other week.
	Right?
	These are, these are my problems.
	Uh, uh, some pixels stopped working on my, on my older phone, dammit.
	And, and so like, I'm, I'm privileged as fuck and I don't really have to like, worry about this type of shit.
	And so that it's like, you know, what I do know about it is from just a lifetime of living with the news on in the background.
	And I, from that, understand apparently more than these fucking dipshits.
	And like I completely agree I am I'm for the most part pretty ignorant to the details of this conflict but I do know that when you other people to the point of you know calling for their extermination like you are not seeing the full picture of the situation.
	Yeah.
	Could you imagine if Stephen's wife, or I'm sorry, Stephen's ex-wife's... Well, hopefully soon.
	Yes, hopefully.
	If her lawyers were just taking pictures of him all day long, he leaves the house, he's getting photographed, personal paparazzi just for her sake, right?
	Could you imagine what that show would be like?
	Right?
	And that's like, and that's just like a little, like a little, little something.
	Like here's, you know, they can't, they can't take pictures of you while you're in the studio, Steven.
	So here's at least some reprieve from that, you know, lifestyle of being constantly watched and your every move reported.
	We saw the other week Stephen got rejected and he had an absolute meltdown for an entire hour and that was very fun for us to laugh at him and point our fingers.
	But could you imagine if he had any any amount of inconvenience that these people are dealing with on the daily basis?
	Like what would that show be like?
	Why Jared?
	That would be un-American.
	A life like that?
	Come on.
	They're all about freedom.
	Freedom of movement.
	I'm not driving, I'm traveling.
	I'm traveling, please.
	I'm not saying Stephen is a sovereign citizen, but he's closer than I am.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	He at least knows the talking points.
	It's just a really gross way to look at an awful situation, and I will continue trying to learn more about this and educate myself.
	I just wish that he would as well.
	I think the problem just stems from trying to simplify really complex things into simple things like this.
	Yeah.
	Like, it's not easy to be like, oh yeah, I figured out the bad guys, I checked the records, and it's a moth.
	This is not a Rainbow Six video game.
	Yeah, yeah, no, it's not.
	White male exceptionalism.
	Yeah.
	You know, I can never do anything wrong.
	My dang ex-wife...
	We got one more clip.
	What you need to do is shame them.
	They need to be embarrassed.
	That's how you defeat Hamas.
	They need to be embarrassed on the international stage.
	And of course, you kill as many as possible.
	Because, you know, it's fun.
	That's about all I can handle.
	Hey guys, I found this picture of the Hamas guy's butt.
	Let me post it on X. Oh, you didn't pull the next clip of him asking for Andrew to come back?
	Uh, does he do it again?
	Yeah.
	Oh yeah.
	Shit, I didn't, sorry.
	Yeah, yeah, he comes back like a seventh time here and he asks Andrew to come back right here.
	Right after he says it's fun to kill people.
	He also did say something about that he wanted to get slimed on Nickelodeon in there, too.
	Oh, you're right.
	He did say that.
	Shit.
	And I don't remember what it was in regards to.
	Yeah, something about award shows that he was like willing to go on Nickelodeon to get a Teen's Choice Award, which is a weird thing that he's... He probably saw that clip of Katy Perry getting blasted in the nose.
	I want that.
	So I was just going to say that a few episodes back or whatever, The audience is like, well, we don't really know these people.
	Well, I wanted to share like a fun little story from my childhood.
	So I'm eight, nine, eight or nine.
	I'm at Nickelodeon Studios, Orlando, Florida.
	Can you even believe this?
	My parents, wouldn't you know it?
	They said there's a new show being taped.
	It hasn't shown yet, but you're going to be in the audience on this show and you'll probably be on TV.
	And I was like, that's, that's cool.
	I'm going to be on Nickelodeon.
	The show was called Figure It Out.
	Do you guys remember this?
	Yeah, Lori Beth is a frequent guest.
	She was there.
	Lori Beth.
	Yeah, Lori Beth Denberg.
	She sat down there.
	There was a girl from the Shelby Woo, the Detective Shelby Woo Show.
	I can't remember the name.
	We had Kevin, the stage manager from All That, and wouldn't you know it, sitting right in front of me, a young Danny Tamberelli.
	DT.
	Little Pete, for those in the know.
	As the show goes, if Danny's on the show, he's getting slimed, and I am sitting directly behind him.
	So, during the season, and I don't think it lasted longer than two of these, of course, Danny's getting slimed.
	Comes down, rains on him.
	He had been growing his hair out.
	A lot of red hair on that guy.
	Oh no, I know this.
	And he throws his hair in front of him, all greened out, all green slimed out, and he just whips it back.
	And wouldn't you know it?
	You got gacked.
	Me, sitting right behind him.
	I got gacked on that green.
	And it got all in my face and mouth because I was definitely like watching with a bated breath what's happening here with this green slime and after it hit me, another parent in the audience On the other side that they don't really show like the main audience they kind of like showed They called it the dog pound.
	I guess like where the kids sat behind a little dog pound I just remember all these details because I tried the slime this day from Danny Tamburilli's head and It a parent asked like during the commercial break.
	Hey, is that safe for people to eat?
	It's a great question.
	The first question I had was, what's it taste like?
	But yeah, it was like actually like sweet.
	It didn't taste bad.
	It was just kind of like just general sweet.
	And so the producer came out and said, did someone get that in their mouth?
	And I raised my hand and he said, Yes, you don't have anything to worry about.
	It's made from, and I'm going to give it away.
	This is a secret.
	This is amazing.
	This is Nickelodeon Green Slime.
	This is a Shrug Club exclusive.
	Exclusive!
	So we're talking applesauce, we're talking vanilla pudding, and we're talking milk, we're talking corn syrup, and I believe green food coloring.
	And that'll get you your Nickelodeon Green Slime.
	In what proportions?
	I don't know the proportions.
	That's that's for the audience to concoct.
	What if you were a diabetic lactose intolerant though?
	And a vegan too because all that pudding get all that get all that gelatin in there That's about all I can handle for this week Jared I appreciate the story I've always wanted to you know get gagged get slimed It was cool.
	Yeah, and I'll also say this is that actually in my adult life turned into just a fetish.
	Little Pete.
	Yeah, it turned into a fetish for sure.
	I have like a dancing lady on my forearm and then I have like a big boat tattooed on my body.
	Nice.
	And that's what Little Pete did, too, and I didn't realize it until after the fact.
	I watched Nickelodeon growing up in black and white, so it was all just white slime, so I think that's where... Really?
	That's where my sexual ideas were formed.
	I don't know if that was... And that was Nickelodeon.
	If you disagree with anything we've said today, feel free to convince us otherwise.
	You know, you guys are really making my heart swell with all the nice ratings and reviews.
	Feel free to do that on Apple Podcasts.
	We got a new 4-star from one of our biggest fans.
	Spotify.
	Yeah, he moved it back up to a five.
	Great, thank the freaking lord.
	Oh, he did?
	Yeah, we're doing the right things, guys.
	Find us on... We changed his mind.
	Thanks, David.
	Yeah, we did.
	We convinced him otherwise.
	At thancrowder, louderwithcrowder.net.
	Next week, we'll probably get to the bottom on what exactly is going on with Steven, if he is sick, what sickness he has, and hopefully he'll bring it to the studio.
	I hope he's not down with it.
	It sounds like they're all just like going through it right now.
	Yeah.
	What if we get some like weird episodes?
	That would be kind of fun.
	Nick DiPaolo's hosting?
	If we're forced to do a Gerald episode, you guys, it's gonna be painful.
	Yeah, that is like plucking ice and Gerald if you're hearing this, go fuck yourself.
	Until next time, for Jared and Dennis, I'm Byron.
	Take care.
	You've been listening to an AudioWall original, produced by Byron McCoy.
