We're louder than Crowder, a podcast about the podcast louder with Crowder.
My name's Byron.
Dennis brought me a orange slice Celsius.
Yeah, orange sickle.
Sickle. Yep, sorry.
Don't know how to read.
Been writing all morning.
It's close, though.
I didn't realize that orange sickle and orange slice have the same letters.
And our lone star brother in occupied Texas, together with us for a Sunday audio brunch.
It's Jared.
Good afternoon, gentlemen.
What are you having for brunch?
Crawfish. Later on, playing a crawfish boil.
Is that a common brunch thing down in the occupied state of Texas?
Right now, it's crawfish season, so there's definitely a lot going around.
I think last year, they were more expensive because it was a lot colder.
This year, I think they're more...
How do you say?
They're less expensive than last year.
Thank you, Trump.
$10 plate.
It's the ticket to get into the door, and you're watching bands all day.
Today's the last day of South by Southwest.
It's like the wrap-up.
Yeah, you're the crawdaddy of us.
The crawdaddy.
Yeah, I think all of the costumes got found in a closet at the bar that we last played at during the crawfish boil, so keeping them all musty.
Gross. At the bottom of a...
Nice, dude.
Just let them ferment a little bit.
Drink well.
I ate a thin bagel.
A thin bagel?
I had Wendy's breakfast this morning.
Thin bagel?
I had a thin bagel.
Hey, did you have the Baconator?
Baconator breakfast sandwich?
Hell yeah.
You get those wedges?
Hell yeah, dude.
Wedged out.
You know what I like to do with a bagel or even an English muffin?
What? I like to make one side savory and one side sweet and eat them separately.
Little bites of each.
Nice. Kind of a nice little treat for myself.
Yeah, that's a good call.
What are you putting on there?
What's A&E?
Well, jam on one side, a little butter, and then maybe some egg and bacon on the other.
I just put salt on one side and sugar on the other.
See, it's fun to do sometimes.
Same amount of salt and sugar, weight by weight, yeah.
It was a very serious, critically important week at Louder with Crowder.
They're doing some serious work, preparing for a huge announcement.
Fundamental changes looming.
So, we set intentions.
On the Wednesday, March 12th episode.
After a sip, of course.
Yeah. Glad to be with you.
Oh, there's a sound of apparently an old piston plane flying right overhead.
Red Baron.
Perfect time.
Hey, what do Rosie O'Donnell, Ireland, a Ukraine peace deal, or ceasefire, and what else?
Oh, Lil Yachty?
What do they all have in common?
They're all happening today.
Not the first time he's nailed the what do blank, blank, and blank have in common.
More blanks.
Yeah. You get a lot of blanks in there.
That's what we're talking about today.
Not a funny joke.
It's lazy and bad, and I think if you can't write a daily show, you shouldn't do a daily show.
Yeah, that's fair.
I don't even know what the joke was.
I mean, there was no joke.
He had too many blanks.
There's a lot of blanks, and then that's all he's talking about today.
We're not talking about all of those things today.
Yeah, we can't do that.
Here's a little bit more about this major announcement, though, and the question of the day.
Yes. Very exciting stuff.
If at some point, if you haven't seen it yet, and you're still watching on YouTube, and you see this...
Go to Rumble.
It's a live show.
Weekdays, 10 a.m.
Eastern. Major announcement this Friday, the 14th.
The big change is...
Let me ask you this.
Which celebrity do you...
Not who do you think.
Who do you want to leave America next?
Don't say Blake Lively.
Goodbye. What?
Well, I mean, it's a little bit about Rosie O'Donnell leaving the U.S. for Ireland.
Did she?
Okay. Yeah, we'll get into some predictions from you about this major announcement, Dennis.
I haven't thought about Blake Lively in a while.
I don't even know who Blake Lively is.
Remember, she's having a little bit of trouble with the co-star of that film she did, Justin something.
Baldoni? Yeah, Baldoni situation where there's a little bit of sexual harassment on the sets, and they, of course, are choosing his side in this, defending him.
They want her to leave the country, I guess.
Yeah, sure, that makes sense.
I mean, that's what you should do.
More important, though, I'm curious to know what your predictions are about this major announcement, and we will give our own little answer to the question of the day in a moment, but we need to take a quick second to thank some folks who are supporting us over at Shrug.club.
Hello, Shrug Nation.
This is my favorite.
I like this part of the episode because this is usually where I stop listening.
Oh, really?
I don't know why.
You don't listen to his show, you don't listen to our show.
I don't listen to any show.
I listen to NPR News Now and that's basically it.
Shrug.club, that's the home for all things too hot for the RSS feed.
Double salutes, Shrug.club exclusives, pictures of Josh's belly, all for free.
Yeah. And it always will be.
But yeah, some folks choose to support us financially and we appreciate them bigly.
I appreciate them more than the people who just listen, for sure.
I don't know if you should do that.
It's kind of a bad message.
I don't even see any of this money, so it's alright.
I don't know where it goes.
We pump it right back in.
They're getting a shout even if they don't give us money, right?
Like if they subscribe, we're just giving them a shout.
Nope, this is only people who pay.
This is only paid.
Give us your money, we'll say your name.
This is like Cameo.
Do you remember the old conservative app Shoutout?
Sure. That is now defunct.
Yeah, that was kind of great.
That's basically, we do that now.
Did Cameo buy it, or what do you think?
I think they just closed their doors, or got absorbed by Give, Send, Go, something like that.
Yeah, Public Square Bottom.
Brian A. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for your support.
Thanks, Brian.
What a piece of shit.
Come on, man.
And Nick S. You joined Shrug Nation.
I was hoping it was Nick Dib, but I'll accept Nick S. You don't want that guy in your corner.
That rules.
Thank you, Nick S. It's strong.
You piece of shit.
Steven, chill the fuck out, man.
Stinking. Apparently.
If you like what we're doing and want to support us financially so we can do more and be better.
Or you just want more for free like everything.
I think better is not guaranteed, right?
No, I mean, I'm working on it.
Visit shrug.club, join Shrug Nation, be a Shrug Clubber, and also be a piece of shit.
Miles Parks McCollum.
Actually, we should say that we should kick out some celebrity first, right?
Of the country?
I didn't want to forget the question of the day.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Celebrity? Yeah, Jared Fogle, once he's out of jail, I don't mind if he leaves.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind if he leaves.
He's getting close.
He's almost out of here.
Is he almost out?
Almost out.
Is that right?
Yeah. Sorry to bring everything down.
It's like one of those things where you should be able to leave him in for a while longer.
Doesn't seem like it's been long enough.
Let him cook, honestly.
That's not using that right.
Yeah. Yeah, Subway is typically a cold sandwich.
Well, you gotta throw in the toaster.
You're looking at two assistant and former managers of Subway.
Trust us.
We know Subway.
Dennis actually went to Subway University.
Of course I did.
He got an actual certificate.
I'm a certified sandwich artist right over here, dude.
Six olives per foot long.
That's the rule.
Card? Card carrying?
No. You got the cert?
No, I'm retired.
I got a purple piece of bacon metal.
Excuse me?
What? Damn.
Yeah, I burned myself with hot bacon.
You still hang it.
On the weekends when you're feeling...
I'm still on the payroll, man.
I go back occasionally.
You're like a Milton.
Purple Onion honor.
Great. Miles Parks McCollum.
Does that ring a bell?
No. Certainly.
You know Lil Yachty.
Lil Yachty.
Someone I never thought would be a blip on the Crowdar.
The Crowdar is good.
Thank you.
I thought you had a radar noise you were going to play.
I didn't have one.
This is trending everywhere, and I want to be...
Clear here on the outset.
Does this mean that Lil Yachty is now a conservative?
No. Okay, I'm not jumping on that bandwagon.
But I do want you to see the difference in this latest clip where he is very clear as to what he thinks regarding Black Lives Matter, namely that it's a scam.
And we'll go back to in 2020 when he was supportive of Black Lives Matter.
But you will be able to see he doesn't seem quite sure of it.
You guys, uh...
Take a walk.
Is that a little Yachty track?
I think it's Walk to Poland.
I don't know any songs from a little Yachty.
Yeah, I mean, I like what...
You gotta catch that James Blake Yachty interview.
Excellent. Very good stuff.
I did a listen-through of his psychedelic album, Let's Start Here.
I thought that was pretty good.
And when I come across Little Yachty tracks, he's pretty solid.
I mean, not like a technically wonderful rapper, but he's got a lot of personality.
He's got some ideas.
He does some cool stuff.
Did he say something they were going to talk about?
Yeah, we're going to play that here in a second.
I just wanted to get some hot takes on Little Yachty.
I wish I understood Little Yachty more.
I didn't really get too much of this episode.
Obviously, Steven's like, I don't know, this black young man is going to face a lot of criticism of Steven.
Of course, but that's, I don't know.
If you listen to this guy's interviews in the past, he's not really in tune with things that are happening in the world around him.
Yeah, he doesn't have to be.
He's a musician.
Yeah, he doesn't have to be.
He's like, yeah.
Made several million dollars doing what he's doing, and it's been working out fine for him.
Not everyone has a political opinion that really matters.
Especially this whole last election season on this like, Celebrity is over!
Celebrities don't matter anymore!
So let it be over then, Steven.
So then why are we going to talk about their opinions on stuff?
He's like 22 in one of the clips, I think, is what he says.
Yeah, we should jump into that.
I love the idea of weaponizing someone's kind of nuanced opinions by simplifying them as well.
Thank you, dude.
So, Lil Yachty, he was on a popular YouTuber in It Girl.
Quinlan Blackwell's YouTube show on March 2nd.
It's called Feeding Starving Celebrities with Lil Yachty.
It's kind of a surreal interview cooking show hybrid.
I didn't watch the whole thing, but there was a point where she breaks one of those glass candy bottles over the head of one of her assistants.
They're like, oh, you got glass in my onions.
It's kind of silly.
It's got a lot of whipped zooms and sound effects.
It's not a lot of overlays.
No, it's not supposed to.
To be taken terribly serious, but yeah, I really haven't seen this channel before, and I'm kind of curious, Stephen, if you could let me know a little bit more about this.
So this is now going viral on, I guess, Quentin Blackwell's show.
I don't know who this person is.
Quinn Lynn.
Quinn Lynn?
Quinn Lynn.
These are all silly names.
They're silly names for silly people, but let's pretend as though we take seriously for a moment Lil Yachty's commentary on Black Lives Matter.
You spent $100,000 on a trip to Disney once.
How much have you spent on charitable causes this year?
Let's start cooking these pancakes.
I mean, well, this year technically just started.
So this year, I mean, like, it's hard to...
What about last year?
Last year, you know, it's like, it's hard to gauge.
All right, so what about the year before last year?
Oh, well, that year, that's a good year.
It's just blurry.
I've been doing so much.
BLM? Because you want to be so flat-powered?
BLM is a scam.
BLM was literally a scam.
They had bought mansions and you probably wouldn't know anything about it because you don't care about black people.
I do care about black people.
Look at my chocolate.
You're mad.
It's a disguise.
I think I'm literally the most pro-black person in this room.
Because you have an all-white staff?
They're POC.
Thank you.
Boy, don't laugh.
I too have a gang.
I too have a gang.
I mean, I don't like them.
So they're laughing, but they have no idea what is actually funny about Quinlan's comedy.
No, no, not at all, yeah.
So what I find interesting about this clip is that they're picking this clip out because...
Little Yachty's clearly talking about the idea of donating to BLM and any misspending that happens.
Yeah, the organization.
And I guess I could run through that in a second.
Yeah, and the thing is that when Stephen and his folks of his ilk are talking about...
Black Lives Matter.
They're just talking about black people's idea of Black Lives Matter.
They're talking about the idea of Black Lives Matter, not the organization.
They conflate them both at the same time.
They use it when it's convenient.
They're saying that Lil Yachty here is basically being like...
Oh, he thinks Black Lives Matter is a dumb phrase.
They're implying that Lil Yachty is somehow schooling her and that their banter is more, I don't know, contentious than it is?
Sure. They're clearly, like, riffing on each other.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I, too, have a gay...
Yeah, the attitude of the show.
Yeah, and I don't think that they're picking...
Y'all ever watch, like, Z-Way?
Like, same similar.
It's sort of like...
It's an aggressive interview.
If you're not ready for it, then it could catch you off guard.
But George Santos was on Z-Way.
It just kind of has that...
Yeah, Friedland, for sure.
Same energy.
It's pushy, and it's just an interview tactic to catch you off guard.
Like, that's all they're doing.
And he's doing a very good job pushing back with her, you know?
It's a game.
It's called improv, and people are doing it in comedy daily, and Stephen would know that if he ever fucking tried it.
It's volleying.
It's almost the same as, like, Bobby Althoff's interview with Lil Yachty.
They had kind of the same intensity of back and forth, where it's like...
Is she the one that does it from the bed?
Well, I mean, she did a couple from the bed, but yeah, I think it's the one you're talking about, the one who had the interview with Drake, a lot of people.
Yeah. Saying that the names are silly is clearly racist.
Yeah. Quinlan?
Quinlan? Silly name for silly people.
I've never heard of a Quinlan.
And Jared, ever since you pointed it out, I can't shake the low battery chirp.
It really is.
One note.
And I just don't know what they think they're saying.
They're broke black people.
So the show's just racist?
Yeah. Little Yachty has more money.
Yeah. Lil Yachty has more money than everyone in this podcast combined with their pod, like the Louder Than Crowder podcast.
Louder With Crowder podcast.
God damn it.
Do it all the time.
If you asked Noodles, like, what does it mean when you push the chirp button?
Like, what would the answer be?
They wouldn't be able to explain it because the answer is just it's racist.
Yeah. I just don't know how you can do something like that.
This is comedy, dog.
I guess I just don't get the comedy.
Today I'm learning more journalist than comedian.
Let me put on my comedy gloves.
And let me shake it out of the tree here.
Hey, I don't understand the deep lore with the beep.
Maybe we should tweet it.
We should ask them.
I noticed there's a beep noise.
Let's clip it and ask it.
It sounds like there might be a battery dying in your studio.
Is it coming from yours?
This happens all the time when you're showing a clip of outside, for instance.
This beep happens and it seems like maybe you guys need to change the batteries.
I would hate for something bad to happen to your studio because you guys are neglecting your...
We're really worried about a fire happening in your studio.
So, yeah, the BLM organization, we briefly started talking about it, it turned out to be a little bit sketchy.
I feel most folks involved in social justice are aware of this.
Sure. And also, I'll say this, that whenever you take any group and give them a ton of money, there's people who will siphon off bits of that money for their own good.
million dollars that were donated to BLM.
Only about 33% of it between 2020 and 22 went to charitable causes, while a whole bunch of it went to expenses and payments to individuals.
Yeah, unfortunately, sometimes bad shit happens.
Look at Joel Osteen, for example.
Oh, yeah.
Look at any church that's fighting for tithing.
You would hope that something wouldn't end up in that.
Yeah, and obviously we don't want that, and I'm not condoning that money going to the wrong place.
I'm just saying that is a problem with whatever the movement is.
It's not going to delegitimize the entire movement.
Yeah, and it stinks that a bunch of money went missing and a bunch of money didn't end up going where it should have, but it also has nothing to do with the overall importance or the movement and broader social impact.
Exactly, yeah.
Little Yachty said the BLM organization Mm-hmm.
it helped undeniably.
And that's super important.
Maybe this is just like a, like a side chat, but like for my clarity, like it was the reason why BLM was like incorporated or like a 501 501c3. Them taking that money, was it to direct the funds?
Like, we have to set this up so that we can push money somewhere?
The concept started first.
Black Lives Matter is a concept, right?
It's a phrase, yeah.
It's a response to the policing of black communities, right?
So then we want to put money towards this thing.
Is it then that it turned into a 501c3, somewhere that you can send money to get taxed, to spend on the ground, the grassroots movement of that organization?
Does that sound right?
Well, I think that...
I'm not sure.
I think that, honestly, what I see is that it's a movement that kind of caught fire, and then a lot of money came, and the organization for spending that money appropriately wasn't there yet.
Who determined that they were the people to do it?
Was it the people who were organizing the event to meet here to protest?
There was something like 40 chapters of Black Lives Matter, but it actually started back in 2013 after the George Zimmerman killing of Trayvon Martin.
So that's when the hashtag Black Lives Matter started, and it was...
What's her name?
Patrice? Colors, I think is her name.
And a couple other folks, a couple friends that started this foundation together.
I mean, it started as like a Facebook thing and then kind of grew from there.
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, Jared.
Like... How BLM functioned in general?
Because all of the George Floyd protests weren't like, this is a BLM protest.
They're protests.
Yeah, right, right, right.
So it's going back to 2013.
These things are happening.
We're becoming more aware that like, hey, these numbers are kind of showing us that black people are being over-policed and as a result are losing their lives to quote-unquote the law, right?
Like what is...
Correct under the law.
So as a response, these protests started showing up.
Ferguson, Trayvon Martin, these sort of things.
Then 2015 or something is when the organization became a 501c3.
But it's sort of like, who decided that these people should be the ones to take the money?
The people who started the 501c3.
What was their...
I'm sorry, I'm getting really in the weeds here.
No, you're totally fine.
I think that this...
Subject is really interesting and worthy of a documentary or a podcast series separately from this.
Because when this went sideways and why that happened is really interesting.
And I think that...
I'm sorry.
I guess what I'm trying to say about it, though, is that it's out of convenience that there's two versions of what this thing is.
There's a grassroots organization that's claim is that...
The black community is being over-policed.
And then, in addition to that, with the same name, there's a 501c3.
No, they're the same.
They're the same.
You think that they're the same?
Because I'm saying that it seems like the 501c3, because of their spending, all this, the way that they organize this thing, it feels like a co-opting of what the message was to do the thing.
So then it kind of gives, like I'm saying, people, because they spent the money, it's Crowder math.
Because they spent the money, that delegitimizes them saying that black people are over-policed.
So it's this two-headed thing that we won't recognize the fact that black people are over-policed because people bought a house.
No, I mean, I think that that's the weaponization of the nuance about the George Floyd protests that Stephen is trying to put in place.
But it gives them the option to just disregard the...
The actual statistics, right?
So that's what I'm saying.
At a point, the 501c3 co-opted the voice of the grassroots organization.
And at what point, like what Dennis was saying, when does that power become...
I think I kind of see what you're saying.
I think what I understand is that you're saying that the organization taking donations basically came to power to discredit the grassroots organization.
Is that what you're saying?
Yeah. Right.
Yeah, that's how they're using it.
I think just broadly, it's such a loose structure.
It's not a very clearly defined thing.
Let's say there was some organization called Fight for America, right?
And it became an actual non-profit called Fight for America.
And you have a flight that says Fight for America because you bought that before it became an organization.
And you believed in fighting for America.
Sure, yeah.
It's because it got so big so quickly without a clear structure from the beginning.
That, of course, there's going to be problems.
And if you are someone who wants to argue in bad faith, you're going to lead with the problems and not with the actual core reason why the movement began in the first place.
And make it all one thing.
Totally, yeah.
Yeah, we jump back a few years to a relatively young Lil Yachty trying to process the protests while being in the middle of it.
In 2020, he was actively participating in the George Floyd protests.
I think back then he would have been 22 years old?
Something like that.
Something like that.
But watch it and see if you can spot the difference.
There, he seems quite certain that BLM is a scam.
Well, that's what happens.
Back then, he seemed like he was trying to take part, but didn't really know why.
We gotta do shit like this to get our voices heard, but I feel like, you know what I'm saying, we gotta stand for something or fall for anything, you know what I'm saying?
So it's just, it doesn't make any sense to me.
Now as I sat home, and I'm trying to make it add up as to why we have to go through breaking windows, demolishing hours of the streets This is against the violence.
I'm saying like we may not own it, but we live here.
We're raising our families here.
We're building up our lives here.
I think he's saying something completely different than Gerald thinks he's saying.
Totally. They are not ready to have this conversation.
They're not ready to actually recognize what he's saying in this clip at all.
All that he's saying in this clip is, it's a shame that as black Americans, we have to cause a ruckus to get.
That we have to stand up and do something that's going to catch attention.
Exactly. That's literally it.
He's against the violence.
It sounds like he's actually anti-violence entirely.
And he doesn't know what he's talking about.
He's probably too dumb for it.
But yeah, very few of the George Floyd protests were violence.
And a majority of the violence and looting was opportunistic.
It had nothing to do with the protests beyond that.
In a lot of this space, the violence that happens, while we can look at it individually and discuss its merit individually, violence that happens is a result of a system that's heating up things, right?
I've used this analogy a hundred times.
But when the pot boils over, we can't blame the water.
We have to blame the heat.
And that's what's happening.
ACLED in a report actually said that more than 93% of BLM protests were peaceful and fewer than 7% involved violence or destructive activity.
A UConn study said a similar thing.
96% had no property damage.
98% had no injuries reported.
CCC data says approximately 94% of protests involved no participants arrested and 97.9% involved no participant injuries.
I promise you that if you talk to Crowder or any conservatives, they'll say almost 10% It resulted in arrests.
You know what I mean?
They're going to frame it badly.
Talking about less than 10. Totally.
They would say almost 10. You know how marketing works.
But it's a bunch of bullshit.
These things happen because of the system that we have in place.
Also, we feel like it happens more often because news is weird.
Trump was complaining that CNN's 80% to 90% negative coverage of him said that was criminal.
They should be held responsible for that.
And it's weird that Fox News, Newsmax, and OAN make it look like all protesters are looting and burning cities.
Yeah, it's pretty wild.
With the help of Antifa, of course.
Yeah, of course.
Antifa does most of it, usually.
Lil Yachty, as a 22-year-old, speaking on complicated feelings surrounding protests and facing and processing that type of oppression.
In such a large way, especially coming from a position of privilege as a very famous rapper, it's complicated.
Yep. I think that he was just talking about it from his gut.
If we had someone in our world who could simplify it down to just, like, dumb speak...
It's Gerald.
Great. Ugh.
It seems like in that clip, he showed up thinking Black Lives Matter was protesting the burning down of the city, and like, wait, y'all did this?
Just like, this is...
We're burning down our stuff, so...
Okay. When he was a liberal, he was clearly confused, didn't understand it by his own admission.
Now, conviction has seen the fact...
Yeah, it's a scam.
You understand that, right?
It is undoubtedly a scam.
That shows you that people, their minds can be changed, at least, or they can start moving toward the right direction.
So is he concerned?
No. Am I going to give him the bandwagon like people do every time someone says they had a conversion, they're a Christian?
No, absolutely not.
But there are people whose minds can be changed.
I hope he ends up being one of them.
That's progress.
His name is stupid.
Remember how he has that show Change My Mind where he's never once changed his mind?
Cool. Yeah, I mean, he's just being opportunistic.
He just missed the point.
That's all.
Little Yachty didn't say anything.
I would not expect him to feel how he felt about the Super Bowl halftime show and understand this clip.
When Little Yachty was a liberal.
Back when he was a registered liberal.
Little Yachty's exactly the same person he was in both of those clips other than a couple years older.
Yeah, a little older.
With a little bit more information.
Yep. He's still just taking a walk to Poland.
I really like his McDonald's commercials.
I wish I understood these references.
I'll listen to Little Yachty on the Way Home.
We'll listen to Poland on the Way Home.
We can't leave this segment without a little bit more of Gerald's take, right?
And a pretty shocking statement from our third chair, which I haven't introduced yet.
I love how he connected the dots, though.
It wasn't just that BLM was a scam.
It's that because she was so pro-BLM and was going to try to use that against him, he's like, yeah, because you don't care about black people.
You don't actually care about black people.
That's the connection that I like that he made.
It's not just that BLM was a scam.
He's like, none of y'all actually care about black people.
You're just using us.
Yeah, and she turned it, what did she do?
She turned it right away skin deep.
I got chocolate.
I don't care.
I'm the most pro-black person here, meaning I hate white people more than anybody here.
I understand.
Well, I think you hate people in general.
I'm not talking about me.
I'm talking about my mother.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Hey, hit the dump button.
Yeah. Hit the dump button, faggots.
I thought you were going to talk about white people.
Nick's on the show.
Great. Great.
Nick wanted that joke to land so hard, and it didn't at all.
Saying that black people are the blackest when they hate white people.
Yep. Can we edit that clip so it's a longer delay?
Yeah, add a little bit of crickets, too?
Yeah, don't do that, obviously.
Maybe on the Shrug Club cut.
Oh, sure.
Why is this one an extra 16 seconds?
It's the crickets.
Should I listen to both of them?
As a completionist?
An achievement hunter?
I tentatively titled this episode in my notes, Slur-a-Palooza, if that is giving you any sort of...
Oh, just Nick Dip is so dumb.
Nick's on the show.
Also, I'm not going to let Gerald get away with saying that Quinlan was going to use this against Little Yachty, as if this was like a fully confrontational interview.
No, it's total drama.
Gerald watches Monday Night Raw and he gets upset like a child.
He cried when John Cena turned heel the other guy.
I can't believe it!
My whole life is a scam!
It was never not real to me.
Yeah. I don't know, man.
Is this proof that if you see it on Facebook, it's real?
The AI, when he saw the Isaac Neutron and the Tesla, all these guys standing in burning Korans in their little nudie outfits.
Did he think that was real also?
Probably. Probably.
It was on the internet.
Hey, Gerald, Gerald, you gotta check this out.
Look at Beethoven's little wang here.
Zoom out.
He's burning a Koran.
Isn't that crazy?
I mean, that's next week.
They're saving that for Monday's episode.
I don't know.
Steven, he might be alright with the loose disposition that Nick is having in this moment.
With what might be pending in terms of YouTube, but he also might be a bit embarrassed.
Like there's this drunk Uncle Nick at the dinner table who might be moments away from ruining this thing.
I mean, his instincts actually might be dead on.
Here's a fun one.
Should I know those two colored people?
Oh, no.
No. No.
Yachty and fucking...
I don't think Lil Yachty.
Lil Yachty.
Lil Yachty.
Who's Lil Yachty?
Lil Yachty, but a Lil Yacht means it's inexpensive.
There's nothing cool about a Lil Yacht.
It's true.
Little dingy.
It's just a speedboat.
And who's the black broad who I might...
Quinlan. Quinlan.
What do we know her from?
I don't know.
That's the whole point.
Okay, two random black people with a camera in the kitchen.
Who the fuck are they?
The truth is we don't know.
Seriously? We'll get back to you.
I think her parents misremembered the lead character from Jaws.
How about name you little Quinlan?
You got hot sharks.
What the fuck is that?
Like, that's like a 90-year-old man's rant.
How old's Nick?
He's gotta be 60, right?
Can we look up Nick DiPaolo's net worth compared to Lil Yachty?
That's funny.
He's 63. Oh, the first thing that pops up, Nick DiPaolo, racist.
That must be from my personal searches.
Confused about Robert Shaw.
We got $2 million.
Okay, how about Lil Yachty's?
So, Nick Dipps estimated net worth, according to this website, $2 million.
Don't need to compare their net worths.
Yeah, let's do it.
The irony of Nick DiPaolo saying, who the fuck is this guy?
I mean, Nick, come on, buddy.
Who the fuck were you?
Everyone thinks you died, probably.
No one knows what you're up to now.
Hey, I'm just going to say this from like...
Last year, Yahoo Finance, how little Yachty landed a big fortune with his eight million net worth.
Eight? That's pretty good.
Yeah, that's good.
Nothing about Nick Dipp saying it surprises me.
No, but it's...
He sounds older than he's ever been in this clip.
Yeah, he's trying to say, like, who are these nobodies?
But at the same time, it's like, you are irrelevant.
Yeah, that's like me saying, who are these nobodies?
Dude, I am nobody.
Yeah. Literally.
But you see it's Steven trying to, like, walk past it.
Totally. Of course he is.
Who are these guys?
I don't know.
I've never heard of them in my life.
It doesn't matter.
Let's just not keep talking about it.
I don't look at any of this.
Please stop calling them colored people.
Please stop.
Hey, don't.
Rough. Really rough.
And, you know, it's been a pretty embarrassing time to be in a...
I'm American in general lately.
Oh, completely.
It feels bad.
MSN says that Yachty moved to New York with $20 in his pocket, and now he has a reported $25 million net worth.
McDonald's commercials, I'm telling you.
Nice. I love MSN telling us that, too.
So, House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee.
I have to get this wrong.
It was pretty funny when yesterday, Representative Keith...
Keith, now I'm doing the black thing.
Keith! Yo, Keith!
Riff yesterday.
A hearing at the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee turned when Representative Keith Self ironically othered Representative Sarah McBride, or as Sarah is known by his birth name, Tim McHusband.
Here's how it went down.
I now recognize the representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
Ranking Member Keating, also wonderful.
Mr. Chairman, could you repeat your introduction again, please?
Yes, it's a...
We have set the standard on the floor of the House, and I'm simply...
What is that standard, Mr. Chairman?
None of your business, bitch.
Would you repeat what you just said when you introduced a duly elected representative from the United States of America?
Please. Calm down, Diane.
The representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride.
Mr. Chairman, you are out of order.
Mr. Chairman, have you no decency?
I mean, I've come to know you a little bit, but this is not decent.
We will continue this hearing.
You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way.
This hearing is adjourned.
Best clip of the year.
On hatevibes.tv, maybe.
Jesus, man.
Are you aware of the situation?
I saw that clip, yeah.
I loved McBride's dig back with Madam Chair.
I mean, that was pretty quick, pretty cool.
Yeah. But it's...
Just why the fuck do you care about this stuff?
Like, you're willing to go so far just to misgender somebody for literally no benefit.
Yeah, just to kind of catch everyone else up on this.
March 11th, 2025, you heard it happen.
During a hearing, Representative Self, potentially misgendered Representative Sarah McBride, the first openly transgender member of Congress.
Despite this, McBride responded, like you said, really.
Really sharp.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
I like that.
And continued her remarks attempting to move forward despite the misgendering.
But Bill Keating, Hero of the Week, asked Keith to repeat his introduction like you heard.
Came to the defense of it.
Keith's reaction to me, fully crybaby loser.
Fully agree with that.
Yeah, yeah.
Just like his really whimpering ass like...
That's what we've agreed on on the floor.
Mr. And then does it again.
Uh-oh.
Guys, I think we actually might be wrong on this one.
And by the way, the left is going, look, by the way, the kid's self-owned.
Like, are you actually watching a man who has anything other than supremely confident there?
He just stares at him.
He goes, say, say, mister, one more time.
Mister. I posted on X and I had to take it down.
Did you really?
Yes. What would you say?
Well, I guess.
What? Time for another little content warning.
Oh, my gosh.
I don't know how they saw that clip and saw him go, say, mister.
That's not what happened.
He goes, I think they got him flipped, right?
Yeah, he did not want to repeat what he said because he knew he was called out on it.
The entire argument here is just so dumb.
Byron, if you told me that you wanted to go by Cody.
Yeah. Okay.
Why would it matter to you?
It wouldn't matter to me.
I wouldn't care at all.
No. Names are used to...
How are you spelling it?
Oh, yeah, that's true with a K. K and an I, of course.
Yeah. K-O-D-E-Y.
Why would anyone care?
And to the people who are receiving this, it deeply matters to them because it's their identity.
You're just a dick if you refuse to accept it.
You're putting a lot of extra effort into not.
You know?
Totally. I could see him being like, oh shit, sorry, I meant to say Mrs. McBride.
Sorry about that.
Sorry. Just move forward.
Totally. He did it to be a dick.
And so, sorry, you're being a dick, dude.
Well, and so did Nick, right?
Not a confident dick either.
You were a little cowardly dick.
Little bitch.
I'm not sure what world Nick lives in, but we're about to hear what he thinks is totally fine.
So he put this on Twitter and then he had to remove it?
Yes. Okay.
How bad was it?
The clip had to be taken down?
Yeah. Well, I took it down because they gave you the, you can take it down and we can shoot your mother in the head.
On X?
What a choice.
Yeah. I put a...
What was your commentary to it, Nick?
I said, tell Mrs. Keating, that's the guy that was mad, that this administration doesn't play those games anymore.
And I said, what a party of faggots.
And then I said, I yield the rest of my time to the yeast infection with a dick from Delaware.
Well, there's the context.
No, it's the fag thing that got me.
I can't believe on X they got rid of that.
I know.
It was so well-worded.
People were giving it a thumbs up.
I don't think they do that anymore.
Seriously? Can you forward us the email?
Guys, you can't say faggot anywhere.
It's the new N word.
No, come on.
We can say faggot.
I'm not giving it up.
I'm not giving it up.
Nor am I giving up retard.
No, you can say it here, but I mean, I don't know if any platform you can host it.
Rumble. So sick.
These guys are really cool.
Yeah, these guys are fucking free speech heroes, dude.
They're fucking strong.
They're using 13-year-old words.
I love it.
This is cool.
In honor of John Mulaney, I really love Nick Bibb saying the F slur is the new N-word.
Hmm. Yeah, that's really good.
Yeah, nice.
You won't even say one of those words, Nick.
Come on.
And Gerald is deeply hurt by this.
I don't know if you noticed that.
It's like, you can still say it.
He couldn't get in on it.
You can't say it on X?
You can't say it?
What? Huh?
Oh my God.
Yeah. Huh?
I'm so scared.
Am I going to get kicked off?
I have to remember all these words I can't tell you.
Yeah, yeah.
And also, clearly they...
Well, the free speech platform, why aren't they...
I know they're not about to fucking criticize Elon.
They've been...
John, that guy's shit for the last couple of months here.
Dude, he's a regular Isaac Neutron, man.
You gotta respect him.
It looks like according to X...
He invented the lightbulb.
X is hateful content.
X's hateful conduct as of April 2023 hasn't changed, saying you may not directly attack other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability, or serious disease.
But it does say something also, too, about, like, we got to agree on...
Like, only if you disagree with me on my politics.
Oh, it says if it's funny because comedy is not dead anymore.
Oh, okay.
Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool.
Comedy is alive.
That's the comedy is alive clause.
I've seen this, yes.
You can't harass members of a protected category on or off platform, like saying, I'm sick of these blank thinking they're better than us.
Is that really what it says?
Yeah, yeah.
They have examples?
Yeah, it does.
They have full uncensored examples?
Yeah, if I see...
Nick, do.
If anyone of you sees...
Someone wearing a blank, which is religious symbol or religious group, grab it off them and post pics is another example that they have here.
Okay. Wow.
And slurs and tropes.
Interesting. You can't use slurs or tropes.
Nick says that he's really well worded.
Oh, yeah.
So it's really surprising.
We need this yeast infection with a dick or whatever.
Yeah. Not dick with a yeast infection.
Does he know that men can get yeast infections too?
They sure can.
You got to keep yourself like, I mean, keep pee.
After sex, gentlemen.
You gotta pee, you gotta clean.
Nick Dip doesn't know that man can get yeast infections, so he might have one that's been lasting for a while and he just thinks it's normal.
What happens if you violate this policy?
They will make your content less visible on X. You can remove the post, downrank posts, restrict likes, replies, reposts, or ask you to remove them.
You know what's really funny to me is the idea that they'll make you less popular on the platform as a threat.
It's just so funny to me because it shows that the value of the platform is just in the size of your audience.
You can say whatever you want, man.
If you really care about your speech, you shouldn't worry about how many people hear it, I guess.
When I say your slur speech.
Clearly, off mic, these boys have never...
They've never stopped using these words.
They've never given up the slurs in their private life.
And now they're floating with glee, thinking they're liberated now that Trump has proclaimed there are only two genders.
So that means you can use slurs about gay people or trans people.
This is them walking into F Slur University and it hits the, again, creations making time.
He's got a backpack on one shoulder.
So cool.
The hat is backwards.
And then the front of the hat.
That says, I don't know, something bad.
Alright, a little bit about...
It just says Esler University.
We're back, baby.
These colors don't run.
A little bit about Keith.
It's the trans flag colors.
We're taking them back.
It says these colors better run, right?
Oh, God.
Oh, damn.
Oh, I just created, like, the worst shirt that I know would sell.
Yeah, that sucks.
A little bit about this Keith Self guy, though.
U.S. Representative for Texas' third congressional district since 2023.
Election denier believes that there's all kinds of fraud and that voter rolls need to be scrubbed.
Not super surprising.
It's kind of just how the base is now.
His feelings in the wake of the Alan Mall shooting, the one that we talked about not too long ago during Stephen's deposition, that's some primo-dumb shining through.
Here's him on CNN responding to wide criticism to his call for thoughts and prayers.
Now, you know, Congressman, that is a common refrain after these incidents, after mass shootings, but many people argue that prayers aren't cutting it.
Prayers are not preventing the next mass shooting.
What is your response to that criticism?
Well, those are people that don't believe in an almighty God who is absolutely in control of our lives.
I'm a Christian.
I believe that he is.
We have people, though, with mental health that we're not taking care of.
Since this nation made the decision that we were going to close the mental health institutions, many of these situations are based on that.
And the people that say, and really, I would like to stay away from the politics today because I want to focus on the victims.
Today, we should be focused on the families.
Prayer is powerful in the lives of those people that are devastated.
I know people want to make this political, but prayers are important.
I know people got mental health.
I love that.
It is interesting how the right is seeming to pivot to mental health after they've lost all other excuses for gun violence in America.
One thing I'll say about that clip is he sounded like a confident alpha.
Oh, sure did.
Definitely did.
Not a scared man doing damage control.
Yeah. Annoying.
Of course.
Saying that people who disagree with your call for thoughts and prayers are just godless.
Yeah, right.
That's not what it's about, my guy.
Yeah, not at all.
That's not enough, unfortunately.
It is if I say it is.
It's the same, like the 501c3 delegitimizes your grassroots movement.
If these people were at church, they wouldn't have been shot.
Great point.
I wonder what day it was.
I think it was a Sunday.
I think it was a Sunday when it happened.
Jumping back to the misgendering during the session, here's the twisting of the story.
That or it's just complete incompetence.
Probably both.
Given Stephen's research on Quinlan and Yachty's interview, I think it might be probably a little both.
Sure. Here's the thing.
McBride is not consistent with this.
It all depends on who he is dealing with.
Here's an example of McBride being introduced as a man in Congress just last month.
The chair recognizes the gentleman from Delaware.
Mr. McBride for five minutes.
What the hell is even that?
Just cut it after that, of course.
That's the issue.
It becomes a weapon when your outrage is targeted.
When your outrage is targeted.
What are you talking about?
This was back in February where Sarah McBride was again misgendered, this time by Mary Miller.
It's interesting, just because they didn't, like, recognize the misgendering in the moment doesn't mean that it was totally fine, and that Sarah McBride was, because it's a woman who did it, it doesn't matter, or they're being selective, in how they're responding.
That's not it.
Yeah. And in in this other situation, someone else spoke out on behalf of Mrs.
McBride. Exactly, because it's kind of a distraction if your job is to, you know, I don't know, represent Delaware's largest congressional district.
Yeah. And use your time wisely.
Instead of focusing on yourself and misgendering an attack that you're taking personally, and maybe focus on doing the things that you're supposed to be doing in Congress.
Yeah, we bullied them a lot, and they just spoke out.
So I'm confused.
Are they okay with bullying, or are they not okay with bullying?
They're being selective of when it's okay to be bullied.
Well, I'm confused then.
When can I bully?
Well, and I think he's trying to imply that Mary Miller, because they're a woman and it may have not been intentional, maybe is what Stephen's saying.
That was not the situation.
Mary Miller is a fucking bitch.
She sucks.
Today on the House floor she tweeted, I refuse to deny...
Today? No, this was in February.
Okay. In reference to the audio clip you just heard.
She says, I refused to deny biological reality.
President Trump restored biological truth in the federal government and I refuse to participate in the lie that gender is open to our interpretation.
It is not.
Well, not hers.
And then in response to that...
Yeah, not hers.
Of course, yeah.
Oh, this cool person said something back.
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Oh, nice, nice.
I've heard of her.
Oh, yeah, MGK at the Ohio gas station.
Hey, pass me the duster.
In response to...
MGK. That's my favorite misunderstanding.
I'm sorry, did I say MGT at the Ohio gas station with MGK?
Oh, that's my guy.
Pass me the duster.
MTG responded to Mary's tweet saying, The clerk of the House changed Mary Miller's words in the record.
This is absolutely unacceptable.
Representative Miller recognized Representative McBride as gentleman and Mr. Not-Gentlewoman and Mrs. McBride is a man!
No one should change Representative Miller's words.
Are we not Republican-controlled?
Because the reporter, the person dictating what happened during this session, said, delivering for Delawareans, the speaker, pro tempore, the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from Delaware, Mrs. McBride, for five minutes.
That's how they wrote it down.
And people are upset by that.
A guy named Gunther Eagleman said, you are right.
It's a shit show.
Pete Truth said, Actually, that has to be a violation.
They cannot change words that are public record.
Speaker Johnson needs to reprimand them and correct the record.
Definitely blow this up bigger, guys.
That's a good idea.
Isn't tampering with official communications and official records a grounds for removal slash firing?
It is like a court stenographer changing witness testimony in court.
Oh, God.
Yeah, cool people.
This is Olivia.
It says...
Congressional records should reflect members' exact words, not editorial revisions.
Altering official transcripts undermines transparency and sets a dangerous precedent.
Let's focus on accuracy and documentation regardless of personal views.
Irony! What the irony of that?
Yeah. Sure, there's an argument that they should be proper, that they should not have changed the words.
Sure, whatever.
But you shouldn't just be a dick.
Yeah, maybe don't be a fucking piece of shit.
I mean, unless you're one of our pieces of shit.
Yeah, and then we love it.
William the Viking real...
Real quick, William the Viking, American flag, prayer hands, cross, and cowboy hat emoji, says the clerk should be fired immediately and prosecuted for changing government documents.
People need to just chill the fuck out.
Why is the right obsessed with firing and jailing people?
I mean, we hate everybody.
It's just classic, like, Gestapo, you know?
It's kind of annoying.
I drink the blood of my enemies type of...
Like, if I can take away your rights, then you can't.
Do anything.
It's just more of the same shit.
Like, if you disagree with me, you should be deported.
If you drink Bud Light, I should be able to shoot you to get it out of your stomach.
I just pictured Kid Rock saying that.
Yeah, I should be able to just pop you one.
Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, it's just like, it's to be punitive and it's cruel.
Everything that they do is kind of hinged on that.
They try to pretend like it's not, but why would we be talking about this if not?
You know what I mean?
Yeah. Well, and then Mrs. Keith's self.
Said in a conversation with Michael Knowles of the Daily Wire, Well, Michael, I'm a retired Green Beret.
I'm not even sure what all the fuss is about.
I mean, he is allowed to live his life.
In fact, I spent 25 years on active duty defending his right to live his life as he chooses.
But I don't have to participate in his fantasy.
Ugh. Actually.
And then Representative Mary Miller, in response to this conversation on Twitter, said, exactly.
No one should be forced to go along with the Democrats'delusions.
Thank you, Keith Sell, for your book.
Unfortunately, Tim Burchett, who has been doing a lot for UFO disclosure, also said, Which is kind of a bummer.
These people, these folks, are so deeply obsessed with the sex and gender of other people that it causes more problems than they think that it's fixing.
Yes, yeah.
Like, clearly.
There was recently somebody, I don't remember where it happened, but there was somebody who was just a masculine-looking woman who was using the women's restroom.
Police showed up and tried to kick her out.
Really? And so she, like, showed them her chest and was like, I'm a woman.
Fuck off.
It's foul, gross, primitive behavior.
It is.
And it's not preventing anything.
Witch trials?
Is that next?
That's basically what it is.
It's like you'll have to do a quick upskirt to get into the ladies' bathroom.
What if there was one of those red scanners?
Yeah, you gotta walk over the threshold of the door.
You know the barcode readers on a self-checkout?
It's on the floor.
Sorry, ma'am.
Your Adam's apple set off a bit of an alarm here on the scanner.
Go ahead and step to the side here.
I really gotta piss.
I'm just trying to not piss right now.
Yeah, they're like, I'm sorry, you can walk back over the threshold of the door one more time.
But just maybe take a wider step this time.
Yeah, yeah, of course.
No, you're going to have to step to the side here.
You can't actually go into Ikea now.
It's exhausting.
Like, what is this?
What a waste of time.
Yeah, it sucks.
It's a total waste of time.
Sorry. And it's just...
Sucks. Yeah, it completely sucks.
It completely sucks.
And they are doing more harm than good.
They're doing no good.
They're doing exclusively harm.
Yeah, it's just, if you don't have, like, conservative white woman face like we do, like, we kind of all look like Old Grape or something like that.
You can't use the bathroom here.
Yeah, I'm so sorry.
You lifted your arm and we saw a little armpit hair under there.
You might be a boy, actually.
Yeah, it's possible.
Did you ever think about the fact that you might be a boy?
You should not go into this bathroom.
Yeah, maybe you gotta go take a piss with my son.
Okay, boys.
We gotta move on.
I just...
What is the...
I don't know.
It's ridiculous.
We're trying to protect our women and we're trying to keep them out of sports and we're trying to keep men out of the locker rooms or whatever the fuck that's like.
You know what would be doing good for America, though?
I don't know, man.
This sucks.
We're still talking about it.
If I was Keith, just say, Madam Congresswoman.
And then you can argue about the ideas and debate your differences of opinion.
Not about this person's specific gender, who is representing the state of Delaware, not themselves.
I don't think you understand, man.
If she has a dick still, all of her words are stupid words.
My pride is tied up between his legs!
What are we doing here?
What are we doing?
I cut out huge chunks of this episode.
They are really focused on Rosie O'Donnell relocating to Ireland because she no longer feels that she's safe or represented in the United States.
She'll be unknown in Ireland.
This is probably at a point in her life where she doesn't really care about that.
She's very wealthy.
I did keep this clip mostly because I do want to hear Jared's opinions on Linda McMahon as he is a wrestling fan.
Also, Nick says some stuff at the end of this that is just kind of pretty wild.
Remember, President Trump was very clear about this.
This agree or disagree with his policy.
This is a promise made and a promise delivered.
Here's him talking about putting Linda McMahon in charge and hopefully her putting herself out of a job.
Why nominate Linda McMahon to be the Education Department Secretary if you're going to get rid of the Education Department?
Because I told Linda, "Linda, I hope you do a great job and put yourself out of a job." I want her to put herself out of a job.
Education department.
So we're ranked number 40 out of 40 schools, right?
We're ranked number one in cost per pupil.
So we spend more per pupil than any other country in the world, and we're ranked at the bottom of the list.
We're ranked very badly.
Well... Here we are.
So remember this.
The left is telling you, oh my gosh, schools are going to fold.
Our children will have no more access to education.
Right now, where we are, math scores lowest since 1990.
You can check the link in the description.
All references there.
Reading scores, their lowest since 2004.
We have spent $2 trillion and our performances, the results have not improved.
So again, I ask, what's the number?
What is the number?
Rosie said, hey, the media didn't do enough to stop Trump.
About 90% negative coverage.
So what's the number?
100% when people say, hey, the taxes aren't high enough.
Okay, it's about 50% if you're in certain states.
What's the number?
Is it 90%?
$2 trillion!
Linda McMahon.
Remember she was comatose for a long period of time?
They kind of just wheeled her around, and she was in a fugue state.
Why? Because of how, I think, evil her husband was on television.
Yeah, I think Vince McMahon was mentally abusing her.
Maybe in real life, but most certainly.
Probably. I think their relationship got pretty...
Rocky through, I would guess, like the late 90s when they became more of like the tits and ass version of wrestling.
You mean when Vince McMahon was extorting and sexually assaulting a bunch of people?
I think that that's when it started, yeah.
You know, it only got worse as we progressed into the late 2010s with the woman who came forward with the allegations against him that were...
I guess clearly true.
Did we find out that they were all real?
Like the Netflix documentary.
I don't think he went to trial, right?
Well, because they settled and that was the reason why she was able to come out about it because he didn't...
Oh, that lawsuit.
Yeah, but currently we're in the middle of the allegations of sex trafficking and sexual assault.
Sex trafficking.
But it's with that same woman.
Uh-oh, they dropped the criminal probe into Vince McMahon, his lawyer, says.
Huh, well, fuck.
He is a scummy piece of shit, and honestly, I think they're birds of a feather.
Doesn't mean that there isn't abuse within that relationship, but Linda McMahon...
Can I tell you this?
I truly think that Trump owes a lot to Vince because a lot of Trump's stuff is pro-wrestling coded.
A lot of it being he knows his angles.
He knows that he has to do the makeup and look correct.
You know what I mean?
There's a lot of that respect for the craft of...
Well, I think that Vince McMahon could have ended his career.
during WrestleMania 23, the Battle of the Billionaires, where the loser of that wrestling match was going to have to shave their head.
Imagine if Donald Trump had shaved his head or had his head shaved on live television.
I don't think he could have been president.
No, I don't think so.
That would have been a...
Do we need to go back in time and change that?
See, that's like the Hitler moment.
Maybe. Yeah, yeah.
Vince in the gorilla position being like, no, it's going to be me, Trump daddy.
Like, get out there and you're going to lose.
If they did the Trump screw job or whatever, that would have been amazing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The Trump trial screw job.
God, I would love that.
Trump's like, I'm going to punch you in the ear, Vince.
If you're not out of the locker room, knock him out.
It's really unfortunate.
That's deep lore.
Yeah, I don't even know that one.
And I've watched a lot of documentaries on this piece of shit.
Well, Vince, specifically.
And Donald Trump, too, actually.
But I don't know enough about Linda McMahon.
Worst Stone Cold Stunner recipient of all time.
She received one?
I mean, kind of.
I saw one, a video, a pile driver, I think?
Yeah, maybe Kane, the mayor of Knox County, Tennessee.
Glenn Jacobs.
Do you remember when Kane hits a devastating tombstone piledriver to Linda McMahon in Monday Night Raw?
Oh, shit.
All right, and she's going to do that to the education department.
That's kind of cool.
She's about to drop them through hellfire and brimstone.
About to give them an old-fashioned slobber knocker.
This entire idea of getting rid of the Department of Education in order to fix education, I just don't understand.
Yeah, and I guess I was going to say, we would have talked more about the things that Trump's claiming and the things that Stephen are claiming, but we already did that when we covered their 3 and 3 about the education department not too long ago.
We are not at the bottom of a list of 40 of 40 that Trump is claiming.
There's no international ranking of education outcomes.
He's at 40 schools.
We're the number 40 out of 40 schools.
What is he talking about?
The United States school.
You didn't go to U.S. school?
Sure. Yeah, I think he's talking about the 37 OECD countries that participate in the Program for International Student Assessment or the PISA.
37 isn't 40. Obviously, you're too dumb.
Well, they didn't include Trump University.
They would have gotten much higher.
True. Yeah, we're number 6th and 12th on the PISA and OCD rankings.
Not the bottom, not the highest, and I don't know.
The PISA!
Okay. So, we talked a lot about education, and we will probably return to it maybe the week that it actually fully dismantles after.
You know, Congress gets kind of pushed and pressured through some sort of awful...
Yeah. I mean, we can revisit it once the world collapses and all of us start teaching random students in the villages we create.
Hmm. Nothing to show for it with the Department of Education.
What's the number?
Four trillion?
Five trillion?
Can you tell me?
The long-lasting effects, by the way, the negative effects of the DOE on our school system, I mean, they're easy to see, and they can certainly be seen even right now in everyday life.
14.33.
That's five ones.
Two quarters.
14.33 is five ones and two quarters.
And 17 cents less than 20. If that was Rosie O'Donnell, she'd just go, quarters!
See, that's good retarded acting.
Sean Penn didn't have to do much research.
No, exactly.
It wasn't a stretch.
I'm glad I wasn't in that line.
I would open his head with a fucking axe.
So that's a clip from Rain Man?
Very popular film.
Rain Man, yeah.
The focus on people with intellectual disabilities working jobs in the past two weeks has been kind of interesting, considering Josh didn't stand up for his disabled brother when the whole room laughed at him and said that he was not capable of working a real job.
And, I mean, if Josh's brother was working at a cash register, Nick would hit him with an axe in the head.
I'm shocked that Josh is willing to work on a show where folks with disabilities are talked about this way.
It's gross, man.
It is gross.
It's comedy!
Oh, yeah.
They're just being funny.
My brother don't matter.
Yeah, hit him with an axe, Nick.
You're a genius.
We're just being goofy, dude.
Let me explain to you, okay?
Listen. Mentally handicapped person working a job?
Uh-huh.
Killing them is funny.
Well, yeah, I mean, Nick DiPaolo rode on a show with Chris Rock in the 90s.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Everything he says is really funny.
Yeah. It was me, it was Chris Rock, it was Louis C.K. I mean, it really was.
And, like, all of them were in the news recently, right?
Yeah. It's like one of them's getting slapped, one of them's jerking off in front of people, and then he is hanging out with Steven Crowder.
Yeah, he's doing really well.
He might be doing the worst out of all of them, which is kind of sad.
I think so.
For sure.
Guaranteed he is.
This is a longer clip, but Stephen's really going to lay this all out.
And we return to kind of a subject that we talked about last week, Germany.
When people in Germany talk about how they have free internet, how they have free healthcare, that's because of you.
Pat yourself on the back.
You paid for it.
That's going to have to shift.
But since the left loves Europe so much, they always point to them for healthcare.
Hey, I don't know if you know this, but we're bigger than...
Pretty much every country when we're talking about Europe.
We have 50, effectively, European countries, if you look like a country like France or Ireland.
If we actually allow the Department of Education to dissolve and go back to the States, we can do what Europe does.
We spend more money than almost any other nation with the worst performances.
What's so bad about seeing, hey, Texas maybe is a little France, Florida is an Ireland, California is whatever crappy country, Greece.
What? Are they still bankrupt?
I don't know.
They don't want to retire.
They don't have to wait until 56 or whatever the hell it is.
The point is, hey, it's not a money issue.
Why can't we do it?
These other much smaller countries, they have public education.
Why does it work better there?
I was raised in Canada.
Canada does almost nothing right, to be clear.
Public education there is better.
And I'll tell you why, because I could go to any school that I wanted to.
I didn't even understand the concept until I moved to the United States.
If I was willing to get on a bus, or my parents were willing to drive me, I had my choice of about four high schools in my area.
That's a huge, just that is a huge difference.
Okay, as far as, you said Norway, what was the other?
Sweden, what country did you just mention?
I mentioned Ireland, UK, France, Greece.
Yeah. And Canada?
Yeah, Canada.
Yeah, they're all missing something that we have here that brings down the numbers.
I'll let you figure it out.
Not in France.
Oh, I get it.
That's why you said Norway.
That makes sense.
They also have giants.
Like 80% of the world's strongest men in Norway.
That's a joke, folks.
No, they have the population of Delaware.
It's true.
Nick Dipp coming into that clip was the biggest fucking idiot.
I've never heard...
None of those countries have black people, right?
Okay, let me just get ready.
They have black people.
It's so embarrassing.
I'm... Honestly, fuck this episode, really.
Nick is the drunk uncle.
He is, fully.
And Steven, they also have giants.
He's like trying to...
Get away from this racism.
Noodles is like, I gotta hit the smoke.
It sounded like he kind of like didn't even catch what he was trying to say.
Steven didn't understand it at first and then caught it and wanted to get away from it.
He wanted to get away from it.
And then Nick realized no one was laughing and he's like, hey guys, the joke is black people.
Yeah, you hear it in the back there.
Ah, and then the chirp comes in.
Noodles is a little slow on the board.
I gotta chirp.
Soundboard. Just bad.
Beyond the black people joke, right?
Then we also are talking about school choice and Crowder's like, oh, I could go to Canada and I could drop to any of these four different high schools.
That's not really what they're talking about, you fucking moron.
It's about private schools and it's like, why are we trying to gut this thing so that we can give money back to fucking rich people?
Which is the fucking point.
That's why you want to gut the Board of Education.
You want to redirect those funds back to rich people.
Where they're paying $500,000 or whatever, you know, for tuition.
It doesn't matter.
Private schools.
So they should get my fucking tax money.
Like, fuck them kids.
I don't care.
Charter schools can fuck off.
Private schools can fuck off.
Give me that sweet, sweet public education.
Let's just make that good.
I don't even know that it's bad.
It's bad in a lot of places, but I think that it's already a state choice to be bad.
Look at Oklahoma.
It's like number 50, and they're just sitting out there buying fucking Bibles for their fucking stupid schools to keep their kids that can't read even dumber.
The Bible's got a lot of words, though.
Yeah. We can learn a lot.
Fig. Myrrh.
Honey. Frankincense.
Here's the thing that's even missing.
Frankenstein? Steven is talking about how he could go to any school he wanted to, right?
What privilege that he has, right?
Well, that's a privilege, but also, that shouldn't matter, and that's the whole point.
Is that they all should have the same standards.
Exactly. They all should have a level of education that's good, and if certain areas have different struggles because of demographics or whatever it may be, then those schools should receive extra support, not less support.
Well, and he thinks all of this is such a binary.
Like, why can't we also, at the same time, work to make our education better and admit where there's downfalls?
Yeah, well, the thing is, they're talking about...
The downfalls are because of the system.
And I think that many of us would agree with that, but the idea is, okay, well, let's fix the system.
Improve the system, yeah.
Well, let's get rid of the system.
It's kind of like, you know, when my water heater went out, I just tore it out.
Okay. So I just have cold showers now.
That's cool, man.
That's like some Joe Rogan, like, primal type of stuff.
Hell yeah, dude.
I cook all of my food.
I use a really dumb-shaped knife, and I cook steaks on rocks in the back now.
It's sick.
I bet your house smells really nice.
Hot rock.
Yeah. Gross.
Hot meat, hot rock.
I was tempted to say at this point that that's all I can handle this week, but we can't end the week without that major announcement.
The future of Rumble Premium and Louder with Crowder.
Let's start the March 14th, 2024 episode.
Jared... Maybe we should return to some of the stuff I cut.
Maybe as a Shrug Club exclusive over at Shrug.club, the Rosie O'Donnell conversation, as well as Ben and Jerry supporting abortion provider access.
The ice cream guys.
But yeah, let's start March 14th.
Here we go.
I'm here for a pie day.
You get the butt.
Glad to be with you.
I know it's a...
Going wide here on YouTube, everywhere.
Is it 11.30 Eastern?
I go by God's time.
Central. It's the Devil's Playground, the entire East Coast.
Did you know that?
We have a lot to get to today.
A major announcement that we will be making in about a half hour.
And the reason for that is, hey, anyone, by the way, watching right now, I would still recommend that you go and watch Dan Bongino.
It is his last show on Rumble before he heads on into the FBI.
He's done incredible things, was canceled on YouTube, was banned from YouTube, and he has been a huge part, an integral part, in growing Rumble.
We've done cross streams with him.
We've been happy to be brothers in arms?
Brothers in arms.
Brothers in arms with him.
And his audience will be rating here for a major announcement regarding the future of Rumble.
Obviously, he'll be leaving, so people are wondering what's going to go on there.
And the death of something else.
Dan Bongino, remember him?
Former U.S. Secret Service agent.
Ran unsuccessfully for office and gained fame as a conservative pundit on Rumble, mostly after he got kicked off of YouTube.
Yeah, and now he's the deputy director of the FBI.
Deputy director of the FBI.
Yeah, podcaster.
Cool. Very exciting stuff.
Yeah. Strong feelings?
Jared, your uncle?
Yeah, honestly, I'm pretty sure my uncle's going to the FBI and he's going to be...
He's going to be his best friend in the office.
He's going to be like, do you have two sugars?
Do you want cream?
What do you want?
What do we want?
Bongino? Is this...
I don't know.
The very...
I don't really know if I should, like, out my uncle.
No, we don't need to out your uncle.
You know what I mean?
Well, I'm just saying because Dan Bongino's in this elevated position in the FBI, my uncle, who's his best friend, of course, from Facebook, he has previous experience in running campaigns to some effect when he worked on a certain toe-tapping senator airport.
Style campaign.
We're all familiar.
I don't know how you want to say that.
Anyway, worked on the campaign there, so I'm just thinking that he can kind of probably leverage that as...
In real life or in Facebook?
I'm hoping in real life he can position this to Dan Bongino himself.
Did your uncle work for his campaign on Facebook?
He was a campaign manager for...
No! No.
In office.
Wow. Alright.
Like IRL.
Worked hand-in-hand with Larry Craig's office as a paid staff member.
Wow. Well, I didn't know why Bongino got kicked off of YouTube, but it turns out with COVID misinformation...
Because he made a video claiming that masks were ineffective against the virus.
Okay. Was he the one who led the, if you can hold your breath for 10 seconds, you don't have it thing?
Dude, I tried that live on the air one time at the beginning of COVID.
I was like, oh, thank goodness.
Dude, I'm getting my Facebook memories over the COVID times right now.
That's brutal.
That's not very fun.
My most recent Facebook post was about the Dow crashing.
And so I'm just going to hit share again and say, hey, look, we're back.
Hey. It's all the same.
Speaking of going back.
I thought it would be fun to explore parts of the election livestream of the century that we didn't really fully cover.
Okay. I mean, it was a huge cross-stream between Dan Bongino and Steven Crowder.
Sure. And this is, remember when basically Rumble broke the internet and Rumble, you know, didn't break.
The election integrity map may have, but this is big.
And this is how it went down for folks who didn't watch the 10-hour livestream at the time.
Sure. And for folks who didn't watch our coverage of it, which is available for free at Shrug.club.
Yep. The problem I had to...
Talk to Dan about it.
All right, fine.
Let's bring on my...
Well, you know what?
You're my favorite guinea.
Dan Bongino is like a top nine.
Let's bring on Dan Bongino.
I love Dan.
Everybody was regime controlled.
And suddenly now you have the wild card of Twitter.
We're joining their stream live.
And even now Rumble, right?
It's grown a ton.
That's not Dan.
That's not Dan.
So how does that play into the necessity of the Kamala team having a narrative control?
Cancer will do that to you.
I know.
What you laid out actually is going to be a place.
What does this happen?
Dan Bontino had cancer.
You got more hair.
Narrative control is an essential prerequisite of being able to pull off these kind of bottom-up top wing of democratic governments.
It's actually something the State Department...
It looks good.
That lady looks enthralled.
She's on her phone.
What is her focus in on?
It's why.
I know.
I can't be bothered with these.
It's chill, bud.
Yelling at her husband.
Or state-party media or these independent media that are working with intelligence services and why they promoted censorship of the county.
Guys, I've been wearing the right colored hat.
I don't even know what happened in that clip.
So they were supposed to go live.
Did they do it with the wrong one?
Well, they went onto Bongino's feed.
They crossed streams, but one of the streams was still going and not recognizing what was going on.
So Stephen's feeling pretty insecure.
Yeah. Sensitive about this.
We had him on.
They keep trying to make it work.
Oh, I think I'm just messing up their stream at this point.
Do we want to...
They probably didn't pot up our audio.
Oh, okay.
So do we want to go back?
After Mike is done talking, they're going to come to us.
Well, I'm sure he's a very nice man, but I'm here to speak with Dan.
So we can...
Well, I didn't ask you to speak with Mike.
You can just listen to Mike.
I don't want to listen to Mike.
But why not?
Because there's an entire team of people here who cost us millions of dollars.
It looks like he's trying to break up Google.
Hey guys, can we also create a master list of the states that we've called?
That's one thing that would be good to bring up for the viewer right now, along with, let's go really quickly.
Let's go to the electoral integrity map, the election integrity map.
Let me know when it's working again from the DDoS attack, sons of bitches.
We're up right now, so...
Oh, okay, great!
Not for long.
Just Stephen rolling through, like, communication and process challenges in his office.
Yeah, he's immediately elevating the situation, pointing out all the large sums of money that they've invested in this livestream, which I doubt they did.
I don't see how they could.
First of all, the electoral integrity map, which he called the election integrity, what did he call it?
I don't remember.
Doesn't have the locked-in name, even though he's telling people to go to a URL that is that.
Yeah. It's not working.
It was not DDoS attacks.
It just was shitty.
It just didn't ever work.
It was Wix.
They didn't subscribe to Wix Plus.
Sure. They had Wix Standard and they needed to upgrade for the number of visits.
They had 110 guys show up to report about a fallen tree or whatever.
That was really cool.
And a country road had a closed sign so they couldn't vote, I guess.
They had to go around the cornfield to vote.
I had to go talk to somebody.
I had to get out of my car.
Get directions at the gas station.
Really cool stuff.
Just to vote!
I mean, if he did spend millions on it, that was a big waste of money, but I like it.
I love it when he wastes money.
Yeah, Stephen, if you ever need another website made, I'll take a million bucks for it.
A million dollars.
Yeah. Is Geocities back?
Two cows is.
Dot TK, can we get some of those?
The cross stream isn't going very well.
Let's not discuss it!
Alright, here we go.
Alright, Mr. Bongino.
Oh, one more question.
So Bongino took another question from one of the other people he's talking to at the table.
They wait a little bit longer and...
Should we check back in?
Are they having some technical issues from their side with crossing the streams?
Well, they're basically just checking the audio on us so we needed to be able to speak so they can hear us now.
Oh, so I should have been speaking so that they know.
So we should sort of have been speaking.
They just couldn't hear us for a second.
Can they hear us now?
I believe that they're able to hear us now.
They can hear us on that end.
They'll put us through to that.
Because this is riveting.
I know.
All right, you guys ready?
Yeah. Is this going to be the biggest crossover in the hit?
Oh, no one.
Did they kill our...
It was going to, but then they just killed their own audio.
We killed the audio for us.
Hey, let the record...
We are 3-0 on technical issues on the calls.
We have had it right.
Dan, you can hear us, but now we can't hear you.
Can you say something, brother?
I can hear you.
I got a little double feed.
Now it's working!
Now it's working!
We got it!
We did it!
The cut at that timing was incredible.
In reviewing this audio...
Just a fun moment.
That's the comedy.
And really, the cross streams didn't get much better from here.
They tried all kinds of different things.
Studios, Russell Brand was broadcasting from his cell phone in their cross stream.
I think Vivek did the same thing.
It's just a mess.
It didn't go very well.
It seems like, in my experience, they didn't really like...
Plan for any, like, points to make those changes.
Like, that's, like, when ads and things would go on normal television, where they're, like, actually making behind-the-scenes fixes.
Yeah, where you would have, like, a video go.
And they did have videos.
They had pre-recorded segments that they could have done while they were, you know.
Setting it up, yeah.
But it's almost as if Mangino didn't know that this was truly a cross-stream.
He's like, this is just me checking in with someone, I guess.
For millions of bucks, they just didn't seem very prepared.
Our stream went better than that.
Yeah, it did.
Even though I had the guy who came into my hotel room, it still went better than that.
No one had any control of that.
Damn, Mangino sent it.
Be careful.
This is the deputy director of the FBI we're talking about.
Yeah, and then I guess just one more note before they officially start the stream here.
It's going to get wild and wooly with the swing states, but we're not relying on them at all.
And like we said, we'll make that available to you.
I also wanted to, hey, by the way, Jacked Up Fitness, people can go to getjackedup.com.
They told us that you were using their gym.
We just showed a time lapse.
I lost his audio.
Oh, son of a bitch.
And then they talked for about eight minutes.
Was that Nick Dipp saying that?
No, that was Bongino lost the audio.
Oh, that's so funny.
I lost the audio.
And then they talk for just like less than 10 minutes and then that's it.
That was his cross stream that Stephen was bragging about.
It's the biggest cross stream ever and hit...
We lost the feed.
We lost Dennis.
Oh, fuck.
I vanished from the office.
I don't want to reset.
So that's what Stephen is bragging about.
Whoops. Nice.
And then I guess he's going to continue talking about the momentous event that's about to happen.
A major shift, actually.
Maybe the biggest...
It is.
Maybe the biggest shift in the history of this company.
I didn't realize it because we were kind of shell-shocked after the election livestream.
Yeah. And we were, well, this is going to be more consequential.
Huge. Shell-shocked after that.
Well, that was supposed to be another 15 minutes of that.
All right.
On the theme of YouTube and our major announcement coming up again...
You don't need to be watching this if you don't want to.
Go check out Dan Bongino.
Show him that you love him.
It was like when Conan said, hey, tonight you should be watching Letterman.
He's going to send you back over here anyway.
And if you're watching on YouTube, I highly recommend you watch on Rumble.
And we'll get to some announcements in a little bit.
But, to sort of foreshadow, Toolman, we actually have a special edition of Age Restricted or Not.
That's right.
And this is all YouTube content.
It always has been all YouTube content.
This is stuff that's actually either age-restricted or not, and we have to guess.
We have to guess.
So that is the game, and you can play along, of course, if you're on Rumble there.
You excited?
I know you guys like games.
I love games.
So is this the play clip and say, is this allowed for kids or not, basically?
There's a big difference between...
Four kids and age-restricted, of course.
Okay. That's YouTube distinct differences.
But that is the game.
You caught me already.
That's the game they're playing.
Okay. Just not exactly the truth of how YouTube works.
Sure. And this is our problem with YouTube.
One of the problems, right?
We've been demonetized.
We've been banned.
We've been suspended.
They have qualifiers for hate speech, for advertiser-friendly content, and then, of course, borderline content guidelines.
We'll get to more announcements.
However, the standard doesn't seem to be applied equally.
Like, you would think...
If YouTube says, hey, you can't make fun of someone by using the word fairy, that they would also have some standards as it relates to softcore pornography.
Yes. But they don't.
So, Toolman, show us the first clip.
All right, here's the first clip.
I just finished using each and every one of those incredible sex toys that you see in front of me here.
I'm gonna give you my feedback in terms of how each and every one of those devices actually felt like.
I could never reach it.
It will be 6 out of 10, so it's definitely better than the previous two, but it's still not the best.
Okay, a couple of things.
First off, I hope that you understand us addressing the depravity in no way means that we condone it.
Correct. I don't like that you show this.
You need to know if this is available for your kids because I see a lot of conservatives out there who just sit their kids in front of YouTube TV.
It's a real problem.
That's right.
Second, when that guy is giving a review...
Six out of ten.
That means he's used all of those.
He said he used all of them.
He said he just finished using them.
Yeah, I know, I know.
Which is awkward.
And I just, I feel like there should be more shame involved.
Awkward and depraved.
Guys shouldn't use sex toys.
Guys shouldn't even jerk off or touch themselves.
What? I don't, not seeing the sex toys, I assume.
They're just like pocket pussy style things.
Okay. I mean, there's some advanced ones.
Tenga eggs should only be for eaten.
I mean, the interesting thing is I don't know what they look like because he blurred them.
Did he blur them?
Yeah, they blurred the sex toys.
I don't know.
This to me, and maybe I'm just like lib-brained, but I don't think showing and describing sex toys on YouTube is like, I mean, it's not necessarily something I would want like a 10-year-old to be watching, but at the same time, like...
I also wouldn't be setting my 10-year-old in front of an iPad and letting them go to town.
Totally, yeah.
I gotta say also, it's like, what am I supposed to let my kids watch your show?
You're asking them if they can get the Gerald Morgan special.
You have the promo code for the Gerald Morgan one, yeah.
Yeah, they keep showing it on their show all the time.
They can't sell them fast enough, you know?
They gotta put the discount code on.
Odd that I cut all those clips out.
I don't know why.
I don't know.
It's because I don't want to make more money.
Yeah, we're not trying to do their business for them.
Does this seem...
First of all, big question.
Do you think that this is age-restricted?
I mean, I think the point is clear that they're...
Yeah, I think they're showing that it's not age-restricted.
Yes, that's correct.
Yeah, and we'll reveal that in a second.
But do you think it should be?
I mean, I think that there should be some age limits on it.
Okay. But I also think that teens should learn about sex education.
I don't think it's sex education.
I think this is a sex toy review.
But I'm also not of the mindset that...
You shouldn't have, like, dildos and butt plugs at Target.
Well, sure.
And, I mean, maybe if they were in, like, clear plastic.
Like, they're in boxes, usually.
And they're not displayed in, like, this is how it goes inside you.
Sure, yeah.
It's a good piece.
But, I mean...
Did you just hold up a dildo, Jared?
No, I got two chip clips, which are...
For my nipples, actually.
Nice, dude.
One for each.
So I don't think that YouTube should be promoting this to be shown to kids, but I also think that if you are a kid who shouldn't be seeing this, that your parents should be aware of what you're doing on the internet.
Yeah. I don't know.
I guess I just don't have a problem with this, really.
I don't think children should be watching this, but I also don't think children should be, again, set in front of TVs or computers, really.
Sure. Well, you have kids, and then you figure that out.
You think you're so big because you don't have kids.
You got time for it?
For other things?
I'm so sorry.
Steven's upset.
He just had a long weekend.
My big takeaway from this clip is how immature they are at finding a guy reviewing sex toys so hilarious.
They said it's depravity, too.
It's not at all depravity.
No. It's not.
It's just not.
So, yeah, I guess let's just say this part really quick.
Sure. And full of shame.
I use sandpaper.
It's ridiculous.
And when I'm not using sandpaper, I'm using this lovely Gerald A. Morgan mouth.
Get yours today at the Crowder store.
Speaking of home loans...
Whatever the fuck they did on that last episode.
So one of the first questions you are asked when you upload a new video to YouTube is, is this for kids or not?
YouTube has a very clear way that they separate kids programming and wider YouTube.
The kids setting is very easy.
You make a profile for your kid, and that's the one that is logged into.
And then it only displays programs that are uploaded intentionally made for kids.
And those are reviewed immediately differently than other videos to confirm that that is kids' content.
And age-restricted content is...
You would have to be 18 years old or older and would have to log in with an account.
Okay. It would be something like, I don't know, naked yoga maybe I think would be something or something.
Something really violent.
Violent, yeah, which is something we'll talk about here in a second.
But there's a system in place that separates these things.
Yeah, and I think also when it comes to looking at topics of sex specifically, and in this case, masturbation.
Yeah. I wouldn't describe this quite as like education, but I would say that there's a big difference between a...
A 15-year-old boy seeing this and a 10-year-old boy seeing this.
A thousand percent.
Huge difference.
When Stephen was 10 and he saw Dr. Ruth Westheimer on TV and was just like, this is disgusting!
This old woman's talking about my dick!
Whatever. Talking about my fucking stupid ass shit.
Come on.
Rest in peace, Dr. Ruth.
It is not.
It is not age-restricted.
Approved for children.
Not age-restricted.
Not age-restricted at all.
So anybody can see this guy's sex toy review.
Unblurred. We blurred it.
Dan Bongino banned from YouTube, to be clear.
We were suspended from YouTube because we had Carrie Lake on the show, who, by the way, was in an election.
It's true.
That matters.
Sex toys that look like the play novelty teeth from the Joker in the original Batman.
That's fine?
A four-year-old can watch that?
Yes. Sex toys and Blippi.
Same rating.
Now I return you to your regularly program scheduled Blippi.
Or Bluey.
Is she a chick?
I don't know.
Maybe there's a toy for that.
What is he?
He's some kind of generic European.
Alright, next one.
Is it age-restricted or not?
Toolman, show us the next clip.
This is a superhero cartoon.
And it is a little violent.
It's like a parody of a Batman cartoon where Batman explodes someone's head with his fingers.
He said the sex toy was a mouth?
Yeah, he sure did.
With Joker teeth.
Gotta say.
I'm just going to say, if your four-year-old watches that video, that is the parent's fault, 100%.
Yeah. 100%.
Don't ever let your kids just watch something without being present.
I'm sorry.
Be intentional with what you're putting in front of your children.
The YouTube stuff that was like the Spider-Man, Dora.
Like, we talked about this a couple years ago.
That was a big thing, and that was a problem that YouTube addressed.
Just stuff that was clearly not for kids that was disturbing and surreal.
It was, like, getting through.
Yeah, but they fixed that, and I think that's good.
Like, I think that that's an example of YouTube determining something was a problem and fixing it.
Yeah, and I'll also say that...
I promise that if they were to do these same kind of things with, like, Second Amendment videos, like guys reviewing guns, they would be like, what the fuck?
A child can't watch this gun review video?
What the fuck, YouTube?
Remember that documentary about how COVID was actually snake venom?
No. And that the snakes are demons or whatever?
I don't know.
Is it Indiana Jones put that out?
No. I hate snakes.
Conspiracy theorists.
Do you think children should have access to stuff like that?
What, do you think they should have access to the beefy meat boys?
Here's one thing I'll say is that there is a big difference between how children end up on sites and how adults end up in front of videos.
There's a big difference, right?
Presenting things that are incorrect as true is...
I would say more damaging than simply reviewing your sex toys.
Sex toys, which you're going to experience a sex toy at some point in your life.
Not me.
Okay, well I'm just saying like you're going to need to know.
What? Yeah, not Steven either though.
Either. It's wild that all of their doings are trying to fight you.
Of course.
This is a parental thing.
Come on, deal with it.
It's just like a part two from their show the other week, really, right?
A person had to go on here and say this bullshit to us, which we got an email about saying, no, that's not true.
It's an algorithm.
Someone personally went in here and said that we couldn't do this.
John Oliver?
The John Oliver stuff, yeah.
And it's like, no, that's actually not at all how it worked out.
Because it's...
The computer got me!
You're just not that important.
I'm sorry.
Yep. And then they had one more video that they thought was worthy of bringing up to see if it was age-restricted or not.
It is some women on stage being humped upon by like a Thunder Down Under type.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Chippendales. I went to one of those last week.
How was it?
Great. I didn't go to one of those.
I went to a bad comedy show.
Better than Steven's, though.
Yeah. We'll do it.
And if they ran over...
Again, showing you guys what's on YouTube is not condoning it.
I hope you understand.
Yes, this is the first thing Bongino's proud of.
Have they come over?
Are they over?
It's coming.
It's coming.
They're on the way.
Now, again, there's a very specific reason that we are playing age-restricted or not.
Yes. I just don't want the new people coming from Dan's show today to think that, like, this is emblematic of us.
You're a coward.
No, sometimes.
That, of course, would have to be.
I mean, you need to be of age to go into that club.
Was it a club performance?
What was that?
I mean, there is alcohol in the shot.
Is there?
I thought it was a water bottle.
Did he oil on him?
There was the weird slip and slide thing.
That was oil.
Which, by the way, only works if you have an oiled stage.
You can't do that on sheets.
Maybe silk sheets?
What if you oil the body, though?
You oil the body, water on the stage, I think you still have a glass.
Then you gotta change your sheets every single time.
Maybe if it's silk.
I don't know.
Still, my point is it's not very practical.
That's true.
And it doesn't seem like it's all that fun.
At a certain point, it just seems like work.
I think for the guys, it is work.
It is literally work.
It is literally work for the guys, yeah.
So here's the thing that they're confronting that they don't realize they're confronting.
A lot of this stuff has so much nuance that they want to simplify so bad, and they can't come to terms with the fact that you can't simplify it.
Well, yeah, but not with us, though.
Our show doesn't involve any nuance and should never be banned.
Hey, listen up.
These guys have rock-hard abs, and we have lots of misinformation and F-slurs.
Same thing.
Their stance on...
This isn't even a strip club.
This is all PG-13.
But them saying, like, Hegseth at a strip club yelling Islamophobic statements and trying to get on stage, that's totally fine, and he should be in the government.
But this shouldn't be on YouTube?
I mean, it shouldn't be on YouTube for kids to watch.
Well, he's cool.
These guys are gay, gay, gay.
Remember they played the little gay sound clip over that.
Oh, I didn't notice that.
You missed the nuances in the background.
Yeah, the second or third.
I'll probably realize my subconscious when I start turning into Steven Crowder and I get on his side eventually.
The soundboard in front of me has really linked me with noodles lately.
Has it?
Oh, I'm fine with it.
It's just fun.
Big butt, you got the butt.
That's the best clip.
Yeah. But yeah, come on guys, this is just, you're learning finally that nuance exists.
As soon as I'm ready, I'll come on you first.
See? That's not a sexual clip.
It actually wasn't.
Exactly. It wasn't.
Why is it making me hard?
As soon as I'm ready, I'll come on you first.
I don't know, man.
We're getting a little loose.
All right, stretching out.
Annoying, but Bongino's about to raid.
The FBI?
No. YouTube?
Yeah, his whole audience is about to jump over to Steven's stream.
Okay. And then they're going to make the big announcement.
And this brings us to our announcement today.
I've been on YouTube since 2008.
We've moved most people over to Rumble.
That's been a long process.
And we've still been live streaming, but do you have the YouTube dump button?
Do you have that?
Yes, I do.
So for people here for the first time, what we did do as we moved people to Rumble is we created a dump button for YouTube.
This is what you see.
But here's the thing.
We don't like doing it, so we're never going to self-censor.
It's a pain in our ass.
We have to split the stream.
We have to create two different streams.
And it doesn't matter anyway because YouTube keeps hitting clips and YouTube keeps demonetizing.
And we're at the point where you can no longer speak truth to YouTube.
I don't want, and I hope that more conservatives follow suit, like Dan has done and has helped pave the way.
I don't want any of you live viewers to be on YouTube.
The most valuable real estate online is live viewers and subscribers.
Right? Rumble Premium.
Mug Club Rumble Premium.
Those are tough to cheat.
You can buy views.
You can't buy live viewers.
Sponsors pay a lot for those people.
And even though we've been demonetized on YouTube, I no longer want to play a role in supporting that platform.
YouTube needs to die as a platform.
YouTube needs to go away.
For those of you who are just coming in, you saw it with age restricted or not, we're going to get through the history here.
And we're announcing today that we are never going to be streaming to YouTube.
Again, starting March 24th.
Hit the clip, Jared.
It's me, Zoltar!
So, honestly, guys, what I think really is going on here is that Stephen...
Is doing a bit of, we're gonna leave YouTube in the dark.
It's me, Zoltar!
Byron called it!
Segment called Byron called it.
Oh, sorry, I forgot, yeah.
Throw that on top of there, just layer that.
It's time for Byron called it!
I knew that this was coming.
I mean, even before the stuff a couple weeks ago, the John Oliver thing, it was such a clear strategic move to...
Do the same thing that had been triggering strikes in the past as a way to substantiate the transition.
Bongino leaving Rumble in the Dust to join the FBI.
What better time to leave YouTube?
So I believe he will not be gone from YouTube for long.
Well, he's not leaving entirely.
He will be censoring his episodes and re-uploading them to YouTube.
Oh, so he's just not doing live stuff on YouTube anymore.
This program is going to move to 11. Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Through, I believe, 4 p.m.
It's going to be live on Rumble.
You go to Rumble.
You can watch this live, and it simply brings you from show to show to show.
You know, like it used to be on television, and all of these people are streaming exclusively to Rumble.
People who have significant audiences and have something to lose.
This has been a long time coming behind the scenes where we had to have these discussions.
How do we do it right?
Are we sure that Rumble is capable of handling this because it's going to be a massive increase in live viewers?
We're going to let everyone know this is going to be your last week on YouTube.
There are still some lollygaggers over there.
By the 24th, that Monday, no more streams on YouTube.
You want to watch live, you head on over to Rumble.
We'll still put up some clips on YouTube because we can censor it.
There you go.
So, is he trying to make a network?
Welcome to the lineup, bitch.
What the fuck?
This is huge.
The Hodge twins are not welcome.
No, we are not involved.
This is like a new replatforming, but...
It's like a shift of platforms.
It's the re-re-platforming.
I don't know if that's exactly it, because all these people do have a platform and always had access to it.
Sorry, I think we already did the re-platforming.
The re-re-platform.
I think we already did that.
Platforming, yeah.
Yeah, well, this might just be...
It's the lineup, which is really clever.
The lineup.
Yeah. Who all's going to be on this lineup?
Well... 9 a.m., you've got Evita Duffy, who obviously is a great friend of Dan and is doing great work and built an audience from scratch in the morning.
After that...
You have one of Dan's colleagues there who's really going to take a crack at this.
It's going to be Vince.
And I want to make sure I always get his last name.
Vince Coglianese.
Coglianese? Coglianese.
Vince Coglianese at 10 a.m.
Eastern. 11 a.m. Eastern is going to be this program.
Great. And then at noon, exclusively on Rumble, not streaming to YouTube, is going to be Tim Pool.
Yeah. So we are going to lead you into Tim Pool, who is then going to lead you into exclusively on Rumble.
Russell Brand at 1 p.m.
Eastern, who is then going to lead you in exclusively on Rumble, not on YouTube, to The Quartering, our friend Jeremy at 2 p.m.
And then we are going to have Viva Frey later in the day, and we have some other resumes that are being read as far as rounding out the rest of this clock, so you can keep it on a channel and continue watching.
And of course, if you want to watch more from any of these creators, you can subscribe to Rumble Premium.
It is the lineup, and for the first time, people who have something to lose, people who are dealing with a consequence, are going to be streaming to Rumble exclusively.
I think Steven says it best for me here.
Uh-oh.
Oh, no!
Whoa, what a fucking nightmare!
It's not that bad.
That is a horrendous lineup of garbage.
A bunch of guys who got...
A lot to lose.
I'll link it up here.
This is not an echo chamber, so don't get that in your head.
This is the lineup.
And we've got Ghastly Goulman.
We've got Turd Ferguson.
We brought in, if you can believe this, Back from the Dead.
Count Orlok is coming and doing a show.
It sucks.
They look like absolute shit.
They are all ghouls.
They found the worst photo.
Where are those pictures from?
Someone photoshopped, and we will post this maybe over at the...
Did somebody make that?
Over at the Reddit.
Was it r slash louder than Crowder?
I think one word.
I think so, yeah.
Evita Duffy at 9 a.m.
Never heard of her at all.
Conservative commentator and writer.
Worked with Bongino.
There's Bongino in a wig.
She also worked at the Federalist and has been involved in it.
So here's what I'm seeing.
I'm seeing Steven trying to grab Bongino's slot.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just because he wants his viewers.
Well, he's working with Chris at Rumble, of course.
Of course.
Bongino was a huge supporter of Rumble after he left YouTube.
I think that, I mean, it's one of the reasons he's a huge investor in Rumble as well.
Is he divesting or no?
I don't know how that works.
I haven't looked into it.
He should divest.
Is it deputy director of the FBI?
Do you have to do that?
I mean, they should.
That's... Vince Coglia...
Coglian... Coglian...
However the fuck is...
Get out of here.
Next person's name.
I want to make sure I get the fuck out of here with that name.
Radio host and commentator that I've never heard of.
WMAL in Washington.
Vida and Vince don't really have any widely reported controversies.
They're kind of no-names, and I think they are both vampires.
They do look like vampires.
11 a.m., Steven Crowder's new slot.
So he's going to be doing a tight hour, and then probably going.
He won't.
You think he's going to be pushing into Tim Pool's territory?
Yes, and then they're going to fight about it.
There's going to be some sort of rift.
Because, yeah, Crowder's doing his show, and then Tim Pool's.
Coming in exclusively on Rumble.
I feel like Tim streams way more than an hour as well.
Yeah. But this is the lineup, so maybe they'll just do their slot and then...
Maybe it's still the same format.
They just drop them back to their respective channels or whatever.
Their channels.
Is it going to be one stream that changes the channel for you?
I think that that's their intention, because they have explored this technology a little bit with the Rumble Premium thing, how they have the show that's automatically cut off.
In length for non-premium subscribers.
So they have a way of extending and moving feeds.
It's kind of similar to how Twitch does a dump, you know what I mean?
Like when I'm done, I can just drop off.
Yeah, they just drop all their remaining viewers off when they go offline to somebody's channel or whatever.
Yeah, I assume it'll be like that, where if you are watching on the main channel, it will just jump over to Tim Pool's.
Yeah. Do you think the lineup will ever be like, coming up next on Tim Pool's show?
I would hope so.
I don't think Steven will ever do that for Tim.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if they really get along very well.
I don't think so.
They're two different kinds of pieces of shit, right?
Yeah. Steven to Tim to another.
I mean, this is a more dangerous piece of shit.
Alleged sexual assaulter, Russell Brand, COVID denier.
You know, just a skeptic in general.
Full-blown awful guy at one Eastern.
What time is that over in the UK?
Oh, he moved here.
He's running from the authorities.
Okay. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, he lives in Miami now.
Nice. Him and Tater, roommates.
Boys. Then there's Jeremy the quartering.
That guy.
What time is that?
At 5 p.m. when people are in traffic so they're going to turn the TV off?
No, 2 p.m.
Eastern, and he gets the longest slot out of anyone.
He gets two hours to do his stream.
Two hours to go and harass somebody in a grocery store?
We did a great breakdown of Jeremy, maybe last year at some point, the guy who peed in his basement.
Floor. The landlord floor.
But only he's the landlord, so the joke is only on him.
Yeah, he has to deal with that now.
Just another really cool guy.
A lot of fun.
And then we jump to Viva Frey, which is someone who I have heard about.
A Canadian commentator does legal analysis.
That guy looks like Dark Sam Cedar.
Yes, that is a great observation.
I don't know enough about him, but the cool thing about the lineup is, guys, we have this new world.
That we get to explore within the Crowderverse.
Like, the lineup is open to us.
We can explore Viva Frey someday.
We can learn a little bit more about Evita Duffy Alfonso.
Are we going to start our own network?
We could hunt down Vince Coglienese and...
Heart. You know?
We can find him in his castle.
Didn't you guys buy the vampire hunting kit, though, too?
I did look into buying that antique one.
My bids didn't win, but yeah.
This is exciting.
It's a huge change.
Are they naming it anything?
They're calling it the lineup.
I've said it a thousand times.
I thought that was just the internal name.
No, that's it.
It's called the lineup.
Yeah. Really?
I feel like we've got to do it quick, though, if we're going to look into it, because this is, like I said, it seems like the third time we've re-entered the mug club.
Are you Googling if it's the mug?
No, I'm not.
I've done the legwork here.
I'm going to the lineup.com.
Oh, take it.
Yes, please.
It's already taken.
It's about alcohol.
Custom team costumes.
Okay. This seems as good a time as any, because Dan has done a lot for Rumble.
And Chris has done a lot for us.
And frankly, we are happy to watch YouTube die.
YouTube, certainly as far as live, YouTube is dead.
What? And Rumble is guilty.
Steven is so vastly overestimating his power.
Oh, this is not going to go very well.
YouTube is dead because my one little baby stream is leaving.
Well, he was just upset.
He said repeatedly that no new YouTubers can exist on the platform.
No one grows bigger.
There's no new talent over there.
You know, the person we talked about at the beginning of this episode, Quinlan.
Quinlan? Is that right?
Yeah, Quinlan.
But then they were like, Quint or something.
Quinlan was the Streamy's best newcomer of 2023, I think.
Okay. What are those?
I've never heard of it.
So, like, there's clearly new talent.
That's not real.
It's just he's not paying attention.
Little Yachty's interview with Quinlan had 4 million views.
Like, there's clearly new talent.
He just is refusing to acknowledge it.
When's the last time any of his episodes hit that on Rumble, especially?
It's hard to tell because all of the numbers on Rumble are artificially inflated.
There's no way to actually trust what's going on at Rumble.
And whatever illusion of success that he's going to try to portray in the next few months, guys, it's not real.
This reminds me of when Tom McDonald offered to send screenshots to Billboard.
Yeah, that was pretty cool.
When he was like, they're ripping me off because they're putting me on the Billboard charts.
Yeah. Based on physical album sales.
Yeah, on my Shopify page.
On my Shopify page, yeah.
Just stupid bullshit, man, but I'm really excited to enter...
What's it called again?
The lineup era.
Yes, this is going to be wonderful.
Is it called the starting line?
Starting lineup?
Well, because, I mean, they want the...
Everyone else should sound off and try to come up with a better name.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't have any idea, but that is where the episode ends.
Of course, wait.
What's that?
I was going to wrap up the episode, but...
My face needs more overdrive.
YouTube is dead.
Convected felon president.
Self-inflicted.
This is what makes me feel beautiful.
We've got the big stream.
Largest stream on the planet for election night.
On Rumble each day.
Uh-oh. You're blue.
Well, it's just a dumb and dull.
You're unruppling freedom.
You're you.
Well, the lineup is epic.
All day long, I can't believe we never had it.
Jim Poole and Kramer.
Tim Pool and Crowder.
And this is a new song that he did?
Oh, this one's just for the lineup, boys, announcing it.
So he finally put his vocals on a new parody, and it was a song from 1992.
That's correct, yes.
Yes, and YouTube's death is self-inflicted.
His vocals are so bad.
Song 2 is 97, for real?
I think so, yeah.
By Blur, of course.
Yeah. Yeah, 97?
That's crazy.
Now YouTube's canceled.
So let's celebrate all identities.
We stream to rumble.
Deal with all of Trump's dumb stuff.
You've got a problem.
Tech platforms, access to accurate information.
Rumble's a problem.
Well, it's just a dumb and dull.
Screw you.
Yeah, I'd rumble in freedom.
Screw you.
Well, the lineup is epic.
All day long, I can't believe.
We never had it.
Triple and credit.
Screw you.
The true bad boys of streaming have returned.
Well, they've come together.
That's going to be a problem.
I thought he was trying to say that it's going to be a problem to be streaming on Rumble because it doesn't work very well.
Because it's not going to work.
They haven't figured it out yet.
I really loved when Byron and I made eye contact during that terrible fucking ending to that verse.
Oh my gosh.
And that's so bad.
That's just, oh God, so bad.
And that is...
All I can handle this week.
If you disagree with us, feel free to convince us otherwise.
Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Rumble.
Yeah, rate us on Rumble.
We're actually part of the lineup.
5 p.m.
I forgot to announce that we are part of...
We're doing a daily show.
We do a daily show on Rumble now?
9pm. We're the late night.
The line down.
On Grumble.
Nah, listen, guys.
It's Grumble Premium, dude.
Oh, man.
We gotta get Grumble.
Is Grumble around?
Grumble.com?
It's gone.
I guarantee it's gone.
Grumble. Wait, is Rumble with no E at the end?
I think so, right?
No, there's an E. It would be Grumble.
So Grumble.com has gotta be taken.
For sale, only $198,888.
Nice. Let's get it.
Support us at shrug.club.
So we can buy Grumble.
We gotta buy this URL.
We gotta get there.
Yeah, we just need a couple hundred thousand.
We're almost there.
Yeah, you can also find us on x at Dan Crowder.
Same for Blue Sky.
Louder than Crowder.com.
Louder with Crowder.net.
I'm excited.
About what?
The jerk-off support videos I'm going to be watching on YouTube after this.
The JOIs?
J-O-E.
Jerk-off encouragement.
Hey, it's okay, man.
You're a person.
You're allowed.
It's totally fine to do that.
Yep. That's what I need in my life.
That's what Steven needs, too.
I've never actually jerked off before, so I'm glad these videos will help me understand it.
This is going to be a big day for you, Dennis.
Yeah, it's going to be huge.
On the Sabbath, nonetheless.
That's right.
Wow. He is risen.
Yeah. Next week...
We enter a new era.
Thumbs rising.
I'm excited.
But until then, I'm Byron.
I'm Dennis.
And I'm Jared.
Take care.
Bye, everybody.
You've been listening to an AudioWall original, produced by Byron McCoy.
