It's time for 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:37.400 truth without spin. It's the Alex Marlowe Show. 0:00:39.640 --> 0:00:41.640 All right, lostuff going on today. We got a lot 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:43.479 to get into. We'n get into the oscars and I'm 0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:45.040 gonna play some of the low lights, some of the 0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:47.040 worst speeches. I'm gonna break down what I think is 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:51.000 really happening culturally in Hollywood and beyond. But before that, 0:00:51.120 --> 0:00:52.640 I do think we need to start with a deep 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:54.960 dive into what's going on with the war. And I 0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:57.120 will say this. You know, my colleague and friend Dennis 0:00:57.160 --> 0:01:00.840 Prager has been known to say, first, give the news 0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:03.000 and then give your opinion. I'll give it an opinion first, 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:04.800 and I'll give you the news. Now, I think a 0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:07.000 lot of people I'm starting to see some gloomerism, some 0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:10.399 doomerism coming from people who were more tolerant of the 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:12.600 war a couple of weeks ago, and I'll tell you 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:14.560 that I got a little gloomier at the end of 0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:17.160 last week, but I'm still convinced that we get a 0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:20.280 little more time to try to get the job done 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:23.880 and still have ample space to be able to change 0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:26.840 the narrative and the framing politically. So this is not 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.440 a liability in the election. So, of course, this is 0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:32.280 an uphill battle for a number of reasons, namely because 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:35.000 anyone who does not like Trump is not going to 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:37.320 like this war because they desperately want Trump to fail 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:39.280 no matter what. And a lot of people who do 0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:42.399 like Trump are vehemently anti war. They're anti war, pretty 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:45.440 much isolationist at this point. They didn't want us to 0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:47.560 get into this war, and it would give them a 0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:49.800 lot of joy and pleasure to say that they call 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:51.920 this one right. And it's very hard to pick up 0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:54.640 new converts, especially when you're starting from a frame where 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:57.000 people like Chuck Schumer, who won to bomb Aran for 0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.560 his whole career, is he's out on day one when 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.760 it sends a signal that this is a tough one politically, 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:04.960 but maybe it is the right thing for this country. 0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.480 It's on Trump that continue to make that case. And 0:02:07.560 --> 0:02:09.720 as he continues to make that case, I think that 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.480 we've got to be able to show the American public 0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:14.720 that the world is a better place because we did this. 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:17.320 And all they're seeing right now on a personal level 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:20.160 is very high gas prices and a fair bit of insecurity. 0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.840 So what does that mean for Trump? The task at 0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:25.280 hand is to get that straight or open the straight 0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:28.400 of war moves, and it is not happening instantly, and 0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:32.040 this does give me some cause for concern. Trump seems 0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.040 to be aware that this is the big problem that 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:37.280 he faces, and so he's actually called out Western allies 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:41.680 from Europe to South Korea, to Australia, France, Spain, Japan, 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:44.440 the UK, and have all said you need to help 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.160 me out, or please help me out, get this thing open, 0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:50.480 let's all get in on this. And they're not helping. 0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:53.120 And I was trying to think about why not, because 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:57.040 Trump's the alpha and he's righteous here on a moral level. 0:02:57.080 --> 0:02:59.320 I mean, the world will be a better place if 0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:01.799 whatever ever takes place next, I think will be better 0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:04.280 for Iran. I could eat those words, but probably not. 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:07.200 And it feels like there's a very good chance that 0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.760 we could have Iran coming back into the fold where 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:12.359 they're actually part of global commerce and part of polite 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.359 society yet again which they are a big society. There's 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.760 sophisticated society. There's a lot of highlights within the Iranian 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:21.480 people that'd be nice to have those emerge on at 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:26.040 broader geopolitical level. We could see that happen, but we're 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:29.280 ways off from that in the sense that the Eyetolla 0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:31.919 is still in charge. IRGC is still in charge, the 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:34.360 new Eyetola. I'll tell you what the latest rumor is, 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:36.520 which is kind of wild new or post report of this, 0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:40.240 that he's actually homosexual. That's right, and apparently Trump was 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:42.520 laughing at this fact or laughing at how we can 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:44.520 lame he is. I don't buy that Trump was laughing, 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.000 because I spent a lot of time with Trump. I 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:47.560 don'tink I've ever seen him laugh. Have you guys ever 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:50.040 seen Trump laugh? If you guys have a Trump laughing video, 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:53.640 email me Aloha at Alexmarlow dot com and I would 0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:57.920 love to see that one. But overall, the Iran is 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.120 trying to hold their ground as best they can, and 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.000 they see if they can shut down that straight and 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:04.600 they can make it so the ships are not flowing 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.360 in and out. It could hurt America enough politically that 0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:10.320 America could relent, and if a lot of America's allies 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.160 are not willing to help, then Iran could essentially sort 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:15.960 of go back to business as usual. That's their hope. 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:18.680 They're continuing to export to China at a very high rate, 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.800 so they got money coming in, and now we're seeing 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:24.560 a big dip in production because people can't get the 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:28.520 oil that's already been produced through the strait as well 0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:31.000 as a bunch of other stuff as well. So will 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:33.400 Europe come in to help. No, they won't. And this 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:35.320 does make sense to me the more you think about it, 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:38.279 because the first thing about European allies and a lot 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:40.320 of American allies around the world are buying large A 0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:43.120 lot of them are freeloaders. Is just a fact. They're freeloaders. 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:45.320 We do everything for them. They want a lot of 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:50.280 free stuff, and they're not good at maintaining their weapon capacity. 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:55.280 They're not good at maintaining their arsenals. They famously don't 0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:57.240 fund NATO to the degree that they need to. But 0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:00.600 I think that's indicative of a weakness when it comes 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.960 to the cultural imperatives in their home countries of having 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:07.359 a strong military because their people don't demand it, and 0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:09.880 America always has their back and push comes to shove anyway, 0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:12.200 which makes them really weak and lame allies in moments 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.599 like this where we could use some reinforcement. So the 0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:18.440 fact that we do so many things for the Western world, 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.400 and if it would include Australia, and that you know, 0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:26.400 the whole anglosphere as well as East Asia, a lot 0:05:26.400 --> 0:05:28.679 of this is makes it so that we have fewer 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:30.560 cards we can play other than to ask politely, can 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:32.200 you guys help us out here? And let's see what 0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.360 they say. There's another element here that is I think 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:38.840 very real, is that even though America culturally we are 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.680 moving I think away from the green new scam, we're 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.760 moving back towards fossil fuels are okay, We're trying to 0:05:44.839 --> 0:05:49.480 produce abundant energy, whatever it takes to get those energy 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.799 prices down so that people can thrive. That the world 0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.520 has not burned up. All the doomsday global warring predictions 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:57.480 are not real. Well, I don't know if all that 0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:59.919 news has gotten all the way to Europe and elsewhere. 0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:03.039 Europe just hates fossil fuels and they don't want Trump 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:08.599 to succeed, so they're having helping Trump succeed to lower 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:10.880 gas prices and to make it so that there's greater 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:14.200 global commerce and greater oil supplies for people. It's just 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:16.000 not something that's going to motivate a lot of these 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.520 Western European countries and elsewhere around the world. Even though 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:22.360 the Trump is i think more popular and is getting 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:26.120 more cultural clout globally than he had in the previous administration, 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.800 So it might not be enough to get people sufficiently 0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:33.120 motivated to go fight for this particular cause. So we 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:34.920 could pick up some new allies who want to help, 0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:37.440 but then they might have an even more intense approach 0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:40.880 to the warm I'm looking at Saudi Arabia, which intercepted 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:44.400 seventeen drones over the weekend that I believe are from Iran, 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.360 though Iran will tell you they're from Israel, and they 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.279 were sort of decoys. The United Arab Emirates, which has 0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:52.400 been an ally of ours, big players in the Abraham Accords, 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:55.160 they got bombed a bunch, and so these countries are 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:56.680 going to be super mad at Iran, and now they're 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.120 going to want to destroy it completely, So that's another 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:00.919 thing to balance that. They I want to amp up 0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:05.680 the intensity and not drop down. So I'm tracking all 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.480 these markets for all of you. We're doing our best, 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:12.480 and where things opened up today was not at a 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.920 super scary level. I'm just looking at stocks. They were 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:20.880 actually up almost four hundred points, which is pretty cool. 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:26.480 Oil was pretty flat when we started the show today, 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:28.800 and so that's actually not a terrible sign because if 0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:31.160 things tick up a little bit, they're actually down a 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:35.120 touch as we're recording, so is that there are fluctuations 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.400 that take place, but they're around one hundred bucks, and 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.560 one hundred bucks is high and sustained one hundred bucks 0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:42.720 gonna be very high. And remember we got the ticking 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:44.600 clock of summers. We got to get this all sorted 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:46.480 out before they get to switch over that summer formula, 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:48.440 and when they do that price will go up again. 0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:51.600 But they're not shooting up today, and that shows that 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:54.880 maybe people are nervous, but they're not panicking. And Scott 0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.000 bess and I said, I think did something reassuring, which 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.120 is he came out and he said that we are 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:02.840 not necessarily going to take sort of really extreme measures 0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.000 to try to regulate oil markets or stock markets of 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:08.600 the economy, which is I think a vote of confidence 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:12.440 to some degree. So I think that's really reassuring to 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:16.360 the American public that what we've got is something that's navigable, 0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:19.560 and this administration believes is navigable and believes we'll get 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:23.680 through it soon. So that's the top line issue. That 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:25.520 we did not see a lot of movement on the 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:28.560 war over the weekend. We did not see any massive 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:31.679 escalation in fighting. We did not see new allies making 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:34.840 interesting moves. The biggest thing was that we were not 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.240 getting a lot of help when it comes to opening 0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:38.520 up the straight and Trump seems to understand that opening 0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:40.960 up the straight is the do or die situation, and 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:43.000 I'm content to wait this out a little bit longer. 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:46.600 I think that for an operation at this level, I 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:48.960 think if you are a believer in President Trump, that 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:52.600 he was acting on good intelligence, acting good faith, and 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:55.480 noting his terrific track record of holding the bad guys 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:57.480 accountable around the world, I do think we've got a 0:08:57.520 --> 0:09:00.160 little more bandwidth and a little more time that we 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.959 can allow for him to try to bring this thing 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:05.800 home in a positive way and I think a lot 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.680 of people in the markets agree. So maybe the punditry class, 0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:11.040 maybe even your favorite rite of center pundits, don't agree. 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:13.760 But we're seeing a lot of positivity I think in 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.679 terms of the market is not completely freaking out. So 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.400 and there are real threats, and let's not forget this. 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:23.479 We had another attack, so on Friday, a Hesbela affiliated 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:27.920 person attacking a synagogue in Michigan with the old Dominion attacker, 0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:29.559 which we did bring out briefly in the show Who 0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:33.000 Would Pleasure? Leading to Isis with the ISIS connected attack 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:38.400 on the anti Maam Donnie protesters in New York. So 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.280 we're seeing a rash of Islamist violence. And when you've 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:45.240 got a Islamo fascist regime that is said for decades 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.760 that America is great Satan and they're pursuing nuclear weapons. 0:09:47.840 --> 0:09:49.280 They did want to wipe us out. And if Trump 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:52.640 thought now is the moment, then now could be the moment. 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:57.120 So big stuff, and I'm very optimistic that this will 0:09:57.160 --> 0:10:00.760 be something that we can solve, that it won't be overnight. 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.360 We're got to give this a few months. Three months 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:08.199 is the three months is the timeframe that I'm looking at. 0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:11.480 All right, a couple other things to plug briefly before break, 0:10:11.480 --> 0:10:14.400 and then I'll come back and we'll get into some 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:17.720 of the Oscar stuff. But this big week for my 0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.240 friend Winton Hall Code Read is his new book comes 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:23.640 out tomorrow. This is the AI book, first conservative take 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:25.959 an AI. It's an optimistic cake, but has a lot 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:28.800 of caution in it, a lot of reason to worry 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.360 about the Silicon Valley Masters of the Universe as well 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:34.599 as China, because we need to beat China while simultaneously 0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:36.600 working with some of the people who have opposed our movement, 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:39.680 the Silicon Valley tech titans in recent years. This is 0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:42.720 very big. We also got some very tough news today, 0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:46.559 which was that trumps chief of staff Susie Wilds, diagnosed 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.559 with breast cancer. Apparently it's early stages, but she's been 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:52.680 a really integral part of Trump's movement. And Trump's White 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.360 House is just so much better than the Trump forty 0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:58.480 one White House, and hopefully everything will be okay. That's 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:00.800 a cancer where you can have huge, very ability. It 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.720 could Basically it's a pain in the butt. It can 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.080 go from it being a pain in the butt to 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:09.199 being terminal and being a deadly cancer. So I'll give 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:11.200 you more details as we know them. But luckily, at 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:15.079 this moment in time, that doesn't necessarily mean it's the 0:11:15.120 --> 0:11:17.360 worst thing we've ever heard, but it's important so in 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:20.360 that public that Trump's icemade and the most powerful woman 0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:22.560 in the world, that we give her that acknowledgement, and 0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:24.440 we're doing so today on the show. And we pray 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.240 for her and we wish her the best. All right, 0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:27.760 so much more to come. We'll be right back on 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:36.200 the Marlow Show. All right, back in the Marlow Show. Here, 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.199 want to finish breaking down one of things going on 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:42.079 with Iran, and here it is in a nutshell, it's 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:44.920 that Donald Trump. Once to get this straight open, there 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:48.120 is a massive amount of pushback because a lot of 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.320 our allies do not care about fossil fuels, They don't 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:55.360 care about Trump getting stability politically, they don't care about 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.640 gas prices in America, and they also don't have the 0:11:57.640 --> 0:11:59.800 capability or the desire to fight a lot of wars 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:02.520 in that region. And now we're in this spot where 0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:04.960 we got this new leader of Iran, who Trump considers 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:07.079 a lightweight. The rumor from the New York Post that 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:09.920 he's actually a homosexual. Yes, that's right, that's what's going on. 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:12.199 And I think Trump is just trying to get under 0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.120 his skin, because again he's like a Yeti or Chupacabra. 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.760 He won't come out, he won't talk. I guess he 0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:20.280 spoke briefly, but he's mostly a cardboard cutout as far 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:24.240 as we know, does not seem like a super intelligent person. 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.960 There was concern the prior Iotola commanee apparently going to 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:31.400 report from CBS express concern about this iotola from taking 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:34.840 over because he's too stupid. Yes, that was literally a 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:38.719 concern according to report from CBS. So again there's a 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:40.520 lot of fog of war going on, so you get 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:42.920 away for multiple sources to know. Some of the stuff 0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:46.599 is for sure. But overall, we're taking a look at markets. 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:49.960 Oil is high but sort of stable. We're looking at 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:53.240 market see if any massive fluctuations take place. But overall, 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.160 the imperative is on Trump to open up the Strait, 0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:57.880 and then once the Strait is open, then there's so 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:00.480 much that we can do from there in order to 0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:02.280 try to make this thing right and then make it 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.199 go away pretty soon. But I'm giving Trump a few 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:05.880 months to sort it out. I really do think that 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:08.719 it's important that we give him a little bit of 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:10.200 time here, because if we do give them a little 0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.319 bit of time, then there's a very good chance he's 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:14.440 going to prove to us that he's got what it 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:17.360 takes to do what is to make the world a 0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:21.120 safer place on America's behalf, so really really big, all right. 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:23.160 Because we're talking about money, it's important we talk about 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:27.360 how to protect your money, inflation, currency devaluation. And one 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:30.040 of the ways that I protect myself involved markets is 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:33.920 with precious and metals. Global financial chaos it's coming more common. 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:36.160 There's so many variables these days. We're moving to a 0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:39.520 huge upheaval with AI technology. And the best thing for 0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:41.680 you to do is really just to get educated. Get 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.120 educated about the dollar, about massive government printing of money, 0:13:45.120 --> 0:13:48.520 and inflation and debt. Almost forty trillion dollars, guys, not 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:50.319 a joke. We don't talk about it much, but it's 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:53.439 not a joke. All this is continuing, and that's why 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:56.280 I partner with Lear Capital. These are the best guys 0:13:56.360 --> 0:13:59.360 in the business. They got free gold and silver reports. 0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:01.439 They're just going to teach you about these things. They're 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:03.280 going to teach you stuff you didn't learn in school 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.320 about how to have alternative assets and how that could 0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:09.400 protect you and grow your wealth as well. It might 0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:11.400 be just what you need to protect yourself in these 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:14.520 uncertain times. Told you that big moment last year, Morgan 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:17.640 Stanley's chief investment officer saying you should have twenty percent 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:21.560 in gold. It's a huge number. The recommendation before was negligible. 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:24.560 Now it's twenty percent. They're moving into gold. Maybe you 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:27.600 should too, So I trust Leader Capital, you should as well. 0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:31.240 Eight hundred nine nine two two two five five. Eight 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:34.160 hundred nine nine to two two two five five. Call 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:37.200 them right now, right right at the break. Call them 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:40.120 it's a nine nine to two two two five five. 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:42.600 Or go to lear Alex dot com, have a conversation 0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:44.200 with them, let them show you how much they know 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:46.320 and help you out as well. All right, a hard 0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:49.480 pivot here, you know. Breitbart, we talk about politics being 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:53.200 upstream or downstream of the culture. Culture being upstream in politics, 0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:55.760 meaning that a lot of what happens in our politics 0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:58.400 flows from the cultural actors. I do think that's changing 0:14:58.440 --> 0:15:02.240 a little bit because we the anti establishment media has 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:05.320 really neutralized a lot of the political clout of the 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:09.320 Hollywood entertainment celebrity class. I was on Vanity Fairy yesterday 0:15:09.360 --> 0:15:12.480 looking at all the celebrity outfits and it's just like, 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:14.280 I don't know a lot of the celebrities, and I 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:17.560 follow this stuff full time. So the people they're foisting 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:21.200 on us as celebrities of the moment just so completely lame. 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.640 And I think that's a good thing. And we got 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:25.840 a reality TV star in the White House and by 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:27.720 and large's doing very good job. So we're in a 0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:31.080 good spot there. But with the Oscars yesterday, and it's 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.080 good to check in on this stuff, check in on 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:37.600 who Hollywood anoints as the winners, and what are the 0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:40.320 speeches that are given. And I'll play some clips here 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.560 throughout the next segment, but I'll give you my overall 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:45.880 thought is I thought I was in a time warp. 0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:48.920 A lot of these jokes were so stale, they were 0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:52.320 so hackneyed. There was very little political commentary, but all 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:57.040 the political commentary was just about race. For example, Michael B. Jordan, 0:15:57.120 --> 0:15:59.720 who was an actor that won for the Movie Centers 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:04.120 for Best Actor. His speech where he only shouted out 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:08.880 prior black best actors. This is a guy who's been 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:10.920 relevant for twenty years. He was one of the stars 0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:13.920 of The Wire, he was in Black Panther. This guy 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:17.120 has been beloved by this country for a long time 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.480 as an actor, and he just makes it about race. 0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:22.480 I'm going to play an unbelievable clip for you from 0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:25.640 the winner for the Best Animated Movie, which is k 0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:29.680 Pop Demon Hunters, which is fantastic, and we've played a 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:33.040 million times in the Marlow House, and again the director 0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:36.200 comes out and just immediately starts talking about race and 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:39.120 how important it is for a Korean animated movie to win. 0:16:39.520 --> 0:16:41.640 And all it does is just distract, and it makes 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:44.480 these people, it repels you. You don't want to spend 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:46.360 any time with these people. The reason why you don't 0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:49.120 spend time with them is because they're completely obsessed with 0:16:49.120 --> 0:16:52.640 woke politics. Recall that in order to get nominated for 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:57.200 any movie, they have these extremely strenuous diversity rituals that 0:16:57.240 --> 0:16:59.120 they have to have. You've to have a certain amount 0:16:59.120 --> 0:17:02.880 of minorities on various jobs and in your cast and all. 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.359 This is just it's so grotesque, and I think it 0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:07.880 repels normal Americans, and that's a good thing. I'll break 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:19.240 more down we come back on The Marlow Show. This 0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:22.440 episode is sponsored by American Beverage. Think for a minute 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:24.040 about the drinks you grew up with and that you 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:26.080 still love today, the ones that you've got to have 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:28.320 at the barbecue or in the break room. We're talking 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:31.840 Coca Cola, Doctor Pepper, and Pepsi. These iconic brands are 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:33.840 part of the American story and they have been for 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:37.480 over one hundred years. With everyone talking about American jobs lately, 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:40.760 the companies behind these beverages have been walking the walk 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:45.000 the whole time. America's beverage companies are making American products 0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:49.440 with American workers in American hometowns. They employ over two 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.600 hundred seventy five thousand men and women in all fifty states. 0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:55.320 These are people who show up every day, do the 0:17:55.359 --> 0:17:59.000 work and deliver for our economy and our communities. See 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.600 for yourself everything they're doing at we Deliver for America 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:06.320 dot Org. All right, so I wouldn't play some of 0:18:06.320 --> 0:18:08.320 you some of the highlights and low lights from the 0:18:08.359 --> 0:18:11.040 Academy Awards yesterday again, because's important to check in and 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:15.040 where America's most influential cultural institution is at as it 0:18:15.080 --> 0:18:19.080 circles the drain. Very sad because movies were the centerpiece 0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:21.880 of not just American culture, but really global culture, and 0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:25.240 that's been fading pretty rapidly, and yesterday, both in terms 0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.280 of winners in award show content, gave us no reason 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:31.920 to think that's changing anytime soon. Hollywood was particularly lame 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:34.760 in their politics. They were not particularly entertaining. The show 0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:37.879 is incredibly long. I think goodness was in the planes. 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:39.760 Wouldn't not have to watch a lot of it, but 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:42.720 I picked up a lot of highlights and along the way, 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:45.000 and I'll start with just in terms of what was awarded, 0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:50.879 very incoherent, disjointed awards. So the most awarded movie was 0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:54.440 One Battle after Another, which is basically a pro Antifa 0:18:54.640 --> 0:19:00.080 movie where these vigilantes are anti heroes raid a. I 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:04.000 guess the immigration facility incredibly woke politics, and it had 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.400 just been crowned very early in the year of Paul 0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:08.679 Thomas Anderson. The director has made a lot of movies 0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:11.159 I really love, some I think are only okay, but 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:15.879 it's just beloved within the industry and a deeply pro 0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:19.400 in Tifa movie, and that's what they chose is their 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:22.640 best movie of the year. The other most anointed movie 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:24.600 of the year where I got some pleasure out of this, 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:28.159 which was Sinners, which is a horror movie but also 0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:32.960 a movie about the rise of blues and the Deep 0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:36.760 South in the Jim Crow era, and it's incredible. I'm 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:38.440 definitely one of my favorite movies of the year. I 0:19:38.440 --> 0:19:40.240 don't see a lot of movies these days of a 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:41.680 certain age, right, I don't have a lot of time. 0:19:42.119 --> 0:19:44.760 But it really does go through all of the horrors 0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:48.760 that the Democrats created in the South, from the Ku 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:52.360 Klux Klan to their role in the Civil War. All 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:55.359 of this violence and racial oppression against black people at 0:19:55.359 --> 0:19:57.600
