1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Welcome to another episode of the Buck Sexton Show.

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: Very pleased to have joining us for this deep dive

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 1: into all things that matter. Our friend Carol Markowitz of

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 1: The New York Post, also co author of a fantastic

5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 1: book that all of you should be checking out, Stolen Youth,

6
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: and a refugee from New York City to Florida, she

7
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: helped lead the charge. Carol, great to have you on

8
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: the program. Hi, Block, thanks so much for having me.

9
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: I feel like we could start with your book, if

10
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: that's all right, just because right now there are some

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: areas where I want to get conservatives to be paying

12
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: a lot more attention and the indoctrination. I'm doing research

13
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: right now that's going to be comparing the brainwashing of

14
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: tutalitarian regimes to what democrats are doing. Like, I'm actually

15
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: very deep into this. I'm looking very closely at parallels

16
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: and things. But that's the first chapter of the book

17
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: tell me about. Yeah, So it compares totalitarian regimes to

18
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: what the left is doing in America right now, and

19
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: it particularly compares where the totalitarian regimes of the past

20
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: have always tried to sever the connection between parent and

21
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: child in order to get the child well indoctrinated, and

22
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: to get the parent kind of removed from the whole process.

23
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: As you know, I was born in the Soviet Union.

24
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: This is really personal to me and I it is

25
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: a history of my family that I've heard about my

26
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: whole life that that was always part of it. The

27
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: removal of the child from the parents was very important,

28
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: and that's how you got them. Yeah. I remember actually

29
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: reading in the New York Times or it was a

30
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: New York Times sort of throwback to their assessments back

31
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: in the in the early eighties of universal childcare in

32
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: the Soviet Union, and there were people this is not

33
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 1: something that anybody would talk about anymore, of course, but

34
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: there were American liberals who are like, hey, look at

35
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: the great universal childcare the Soviets had, and it was

36
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: a very important part of the Soviet machine because they

37
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: wanted people to well, they wanted men and women to

38
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: be able to go do these factory jobs or bureaucrats

39
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: or whatever it was that they were doing. So they

40
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 1: just plopped all the kids in to train them that

41
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 1: this horrific system that they were all in was great.

42
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: And the parents got to make, you know, really poorly

43
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: functioning widgets all day at the factory. So it's funny

44
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: because you know, my parents, whenever they would read these

45
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: kinds of stories, would be like, I would love to

46
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: see one of these people who like these, you know,

47
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: I mean, my parents didn't say this, but I'm saying

48
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: it now, like the keinoa eating you know, five dollars

49
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: coffee every morning at least you know, thirty thousand dollars

50
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: preschool plus parents, see what this Soviet childcare looked like,

51
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: and the people that took care of your children, and

52
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: what they did all day, and the food that they

53
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 1: ate and all of that, just the setting, the grim, gray,

54
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: unhappy setting that these kids were in. My parents are

55
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: always like, I'd love to see any of these proponents

56
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: of the system actually send their kids to something that

57
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: looked like this. And yet here we are now, I

58
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: think seeing more than ever that the progression goes from

59
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: why are you guys making I've really noticed this a

60
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: lot more in the last few years than ever before.

61
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: Why are you making such a big deal out of this?

62
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: This is what the left and this is the you know,

63
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: the Democratic Corps will say whenever we start to recognize something,

64
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: and certainly when it comes to teaching kids certain things

65
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: in school, and you know, meaning whether whether it's CRT

66
00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: or really aggressive radical gender theory stuff, or even the

67
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: drag queen performances for small children with full grown men

68
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: with like you know, their backsides bouncing around in the

69
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: faces of small children. At first, it's why are you

70
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: making such a big deal out of this? And then eventually,

71
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: when they do it enough, then they just start to say, yeah,

72
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: this is what we do now, this is really important

73
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: to us. Right. It's also this isn't happening. It's good

74
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: that this is happening. Like switch, it always starts with

75
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: what are you guys talking about? This is totally not happening.

76
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: Nobody's trying to take away your gas stove. And then

77
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: you know Kathy Hokel in New York, it's the other

78
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: her budget, and it phases out the gas stove. Suddenly

79
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: it's good that this is happening. It's good for the environment,

80
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: it's good for your air, you can breathe better, et cetera.

81
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: And they do this on so many different levels, and

82
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: constantly there's so much gaslighting. And I have to say that,

83
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 1: like my whole life, I've had times where people have

84
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: asked me, like, doesn't this moment feel very Soviet too?

85
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: And it was like the nineties when the Clinton years

86
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: and whatever, and it didn't, it really didn't. But this

87
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: moment does, and it's creepy and um so, just so

88
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: the walls seemed to be closing in on our society

89
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 1: where there's only you can only say certain things, and

90
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: you can only say them a certain way, and conformity

91
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: is so important, and the left is just making our

92
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 1: society ever more conformist. And it is very reminiscent of

93
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: the stories that my family told very well. This is

94
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: why with with COVID, it has re oriented my whole

95
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:37,799
Speaker 1: framework for American politics. You know, before that, I felt

96
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: like the Kavanaugh moment was a very important political shift

97
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: that many of us experienced. I know, it's just one

98
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 1: Supreme Court sea, one Supreme Court nomination. It was eye opening,

99
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: but but it was eye opening because you had the

100
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: entire Democrat machine, I call it the apparatus, right Soviet,

101
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 1: you know, apparatcha, right, the apparatus, but the apparatus of

102
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party so obviously went along with the most

103
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: absurd smears and lies about whether you like as jurisprudence

104
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 1: or not a good and honorable guy who just didn't

105
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: represent what their needs of power, didn't represent what would

106
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: give them power, and so they just decided to destroy

107
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: him and feel good. And Kamala Harris was a part

108
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: of it. I mean, Corey Booker was a part of it.

109
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: There are people who are still held in high esteem

110
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 1: by the Democrats. What they did was horrific beyond words.

111
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: I also think with COVID, what we saw was now

112
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: and now I worry that they would do anything to

113
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: destroy you know, your your neighbor, or you or your

114
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: family member if it meant that they could have more power.

115
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: That's what Kavanaugh showed us. But then with with with COVID,

116
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: it was they'll believe any lies, go along with them,

117
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: either propagate them themselves, or be subservient to them in

118
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: the cause of the collective. That felt very That felt

119
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: very Soviet to me. That felt like something that I

120
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: didn't expect to see in America. All the COVID madness

121
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: you and I've talked about so much, so we have

122
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: a COVID chapter in the book, and you're absolutely right.

123
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: And there were moments like if Donald Trump wants schools

124
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: to open. Then the Democrats don't want schools to open,

125
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: and the Democrats were against public schools. I mean, when

126
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: did that happen? How did that shift happen? And it

127
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: was only despite him, And it's wild to look back

128
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: at this now and see that their special interest group,

129
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: allies and the teachers unions got them to support closing

130
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: down public schools while private schools stayed open. It was

131
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: just mind boggling to look back at this and see

132
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: that this actually happened. So, yeah, I agree, I agree

133
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: that it's they'll do anything in the pursuit of power,

134
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: anything to indoctrinate these kids. And I don't see a

135
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: bottom here. Yeah, I was gonna ask you, do you

136
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 1: think do you believe that a lot of the people

137
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: Randy Winegarden perfect example, does she actually believe it when

138
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: she says that she's doing things for the benefit of children? You,

139
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: I mean you and I agree she's not. But does

140
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: she think does she think she is? Or is it

141
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: all just a con, a lie, an abuse, propaganda meant

142
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: in the pursuit of power for the left and for

143
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: the collectivists. So it's hard to say, especially with her,

144
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: she's sort of George Costanza. A lie is not a

145
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: lie if you believe it. Kind of situation because she

146
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: now says that she was for opening schools, and once

147
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: you say that, once you say that you're Randy Winegarden

148
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: and you wanted to open schools all along. She says

149
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: that she's been wanting to open schools since April twenty twenty,

150
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: and you believe this, really believe this. I mean, it's

151
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: sociopathic behavior. She did not want schools to open school

152
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 1: year twenty twenty, but it's important to remember she did

153
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: not want schools to open school year twenty one either.

154
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 1: She wanted them closed for the second school year. And

155
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 1: you know, thank god for Ronda Santis and Florida leading

156
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: the way on opening schools because the rest of the

157
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: country might be locked down for that year as well.

158
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: They would have just not had an example to look

159
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: to and been like, well, this is how it works.

160
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: This is how schools open and kids get to go

161
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: back to school, and we don't have to listen to

162
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: Mandy Weingarten. I want to ask you about the CNN

189
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: CNN effect, Carol carry my new wife, which we'll talk

190
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: more about this very exciting, just got married. She saw

191
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,719
Speaker 1: me today and I didn't even think about this. She

192
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: saw me, and she's like, you need to change. And

193
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 1: I would love why she said, because it looks like

194
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: Zelenski is walking around our apartment wearing a kind of

195
00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: olive green tshirt right now, and I sort of walking

196
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: and then like this morning we're having coffee together. I

197
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: was like, come on, what do you mean like I

198
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: need to fight against the Rashians And I was sorry.

199
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: She was like, now you're really freaking me out right,

200
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: like you get like a Zelenski thing going. But oh,

201
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: come on, that's pretty close. I thought, you know, he's

202
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: very long, he's down here and he has like this

203
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: very gruff anyway, I don see you actually former Soviet

204
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: you under you know, like the the intricacies of the accent. Um.

205
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 1: I guess my Fauci and my Zelenski probably sound a

206
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 1: little too much alike. But yeah, now, if you wear

207
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: an olive like drab T shirt anywhere, um, you you're

208
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: apparently channeling channeling Zelenski. Okay, so the CNN the CNN effect. Um. Also,

209
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 1: wait before I get to that, what do you think

210
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 1: about these wedding bands that are made of So I

211
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: have a you know, the platinum wedding ring that I'll

212
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 1: wear now when I go out and all that sort

213
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 1: of stuff. I guess I like these just the sort

214
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: of rubber silicone ring that you wear. It's a symbol.

215
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: It's just more comfortable on your hand. But she's like,

216
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: you've never heard it's great. I just you know, you

217
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: young people today, I don't know what you're up to, okay,

218
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 1: because well, you know, if if I were to go

219
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: let's say, if I was to go whale on my

220
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: pecks at the gym, which could definitely use some some

221
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: whaling these days, if you're wearing like an actual gold

222
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: or silver or platinum ring, you know, it can get

223
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: scuffed up and it can get kind of you know it.

224
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: You know, clinks against the metal, whereas with this you

225
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: can go lift. But then she's like, well, are you

226
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: just gonna wear it for the gym only, or you're

227
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: gonna wear it all the time? And this is kind

228
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: of you know. Look, I didn't even wear a tie

229
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:39,079
Speaker 1: at my wedding, so I'm just increasingly approaching this functional

230
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: comfort for everything in life. I think functional comfort is essential. Uh,

231
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: And I for you know, so I'm waging a one

232
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 1: man war against the necktie. I will tell everybody's suits

233
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: or not suits for men. I have custom made suits,

234
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: only a couple of them, but not comfortable. They're They're

235
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: not as comfortable as other things that I can just wear.

236
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: And I think you're right on ties. My husband is overties. Also.

237
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: We were just talking about my daughter's having about mid

238
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: so soon. None of none of the men and my

239
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: family are wearing a tie. Some fun history for everybody listening.

240
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: The tie is a holdover from the court of Louis

241
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: the fourteenth, who hired a core of mercenaries from Croatia.

242
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: They were called the Cravati and one way that they

243
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: would distinguish themselves. This is when battlefield distinguishing was much

244
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: more important than battlefield camouflage, which also was why you had,

245
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: for example, the lands Connects of Germany, who had very

246
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: brightly colored colored clothing, and that became in a battle.

247
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: Imagine somebody with bright orange and red and you know, green,

248
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: and they would also wear a very prominent cod piece,

249
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 1: which there's a whole Freudian aspect to that, I guess.

250
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: But the but back to Louis the fourteenth. The lands Connects,

251
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: by the way, saved this first siege of Vienna. Talk

252
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 1: about that another time. You know, Christendom was about to

253
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: get overrun by the forces of the Ottoman Empire. But

254
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: you go to fourteenth cents. Sorry, Louis the fourteenth and uh,

255
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: he hired the Cravati to be in the service of

256
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 1: the French military, and they wore a brightly colored cloth

257
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: around their neck, which came to be known as a

258
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: cravat or the French cravat the necktie. And so now

259
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: hundreds of years later, I'm supposed to have some you know,

260
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: some portrait device around my neck on a hot day

261
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: down in Florida because people say it's just ridiculous. It's

262
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: just ridiculous. No, thank you, I like that. You think

263
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: this is because people are like, oh, they're they're horrified

264
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: of this. I think I think the cutter clothing and

265
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: looking good and all that is, you know, it is

266
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: a good thing, right people should try. But I also

267
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: think that another one, another one, Carol, women who are

268
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: telling me all the time, tie another one. No, no no,

269
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: but this is for the ladies out there that were

270
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: the super painful shoes and they're walking out. I'm like, look,

271
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: you see, this is crazy to be. You know, I

272
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: used to be a single man. I would go on

273
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: dates and I would I would be told, oh, let's

274
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: get a drinking around the corner. It's two blocks away

275
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 1: in New York City, and it's like, you know, oh, well,

276
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: can we get an uber. I'm like, no, it's two

277
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: blocks away. We're gonna get a car. They go all

278
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: but these shoes they got, like the the lubotan you know,

279
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: the red soles or whatever you like, the uncomfortable shoes.

280
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: I love high heels. I'm all about it. And it's

281
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: funny because I like love posting when I when we

282
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: go you know, if you've seen me do this, when

283
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: we go out, we get a picture, I'm always like,

284
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: get the shoes in the picture and that's you know,

285
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: it makes a better picture. But also I love my shoes.

286
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: Turns out there's this like creepy subset online of like

287
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: men who look for like women's feet. Unfortunate very that

288
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: I can't be showing off my shoes as often. But

289
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: you know, I like the nice shoes and they're not

290
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: always going to be comfortable, and some of them I

291
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: refer to as sitting shoes. Sometimes I wear a sitting shoe.

292
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: See ye special events, you know, you can do your

293
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: rubber ring and you're no necktie, you stay away from

294
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,360
Speaker 1: the batons. I sound like I sound like a bum.

295
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: And the more I look by the way back of

296
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: way some of the care and then I'm like, wow,

297
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: this really does look like a Zelenski T shirt. I

298
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: gotta change this up a little bit. Um okay, fair,

299
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: fair enough. Next time, I'm gonna wear a shirt with

300
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 1: a collar, because that that's somehow, that's somehow fat. I

301
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: also love telling people all the time about not that

302
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: I'm some fat. I love history. I'm not a fashion guy,

303
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: but all of the different fashion trends that actually come

304
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: to us from the military is dat in itself. And

305
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: there probably is a book about this but somebody should

306
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: write it. You know, people walk around in trench coats, like,

307
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: what are they cold? A trench coat? Well? Gee, you know,

308
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: but I mean there's so much more than that. I mean,

309
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: even the British in khaki and where does Madras come from?

310
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: And all these different things it's all tied into remains

311
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: very hip with the kids. Oh yeah, well, of course

312
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: camouflage is very much, you know, a fashion trend, but

313
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: there's so much of it. Anyway, I don't want to

314
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: turn this into a hole. I do have a fun

315
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: one for you, so you're ready for this one, and

316
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: then I promise we'll stop talking fashion. But you're like

317
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: a very fashionable lay. Whenever I go out, there's like

318
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: there's a group of us that goes out in South

319
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: Florida together. We all hang out and Carol and there

320
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: would be a big squad of of conservative media people.

321
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: You know, one, everybody loves Carol and two, you know

322
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: she's just you know, she she's got some she's got

323
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 1: some some fashion sense. You know. The rest of us

324
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 1: were a little uh, you know, you know, I'm dressed

325
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: like I'm a little I'm a little Zelenski. Want to

326
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 1: you over here? Um, yeah, but you're a wife. She

327
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: dressed his real day. Oh she's amazing. Yeah, she knows.

328
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: That's why you two sit together and you look at

329
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: the peasants across the table, you know, the guys that

330
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: we're all out, you know, you know, because you know,

331
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: you know who rocks the comfortable stuff. Your husband. I

332
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: gotta say, he likes to look if he likes to

333
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: be a comfortable guy too. Where to get I've never

334
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: seen him in a necktie. Does he do the necktie?

335
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, he does not do. Next side, That's

336
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: what I'm telling you, You and him, he does not care.

337
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 1: We have we have solidarity. So the tricorn hat, though,

338
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: you know, we always think of if someone puts on

339
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: a tricorn hat, they think, oh, like George Washington, the

340
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: American Revolution, you know, the So it's fasciat because people

341
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: think it's the most American of of things, and in

342
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 1: a sense it is. But the tricorn hat actually comes

343
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: to us because of Spanish mercenaries fighting in Flanders modern

344
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: day Belgium, and they had this wide Spanish hat that

345
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: would get in the way when they were doing maneuvers

346
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: with their muskets, and so they began to flip up

347
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,719
Speaker 1: the brim on both sides so that when they were

348
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 1: on parade ground and moving their rifle around, it wouldn't

349
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: actually knock the hat off their head. And then that

350
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 1: became a style, and the British were fighting against them,

351
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,199
Speaker 1: saw this and realized that makes sense. They started the

352
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: tricorn hat, which we obviously got from the British in

353
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: the first place, and that is now as American is

354
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 1: apple pie, except it comes from Spanish mercenaries. So history

355
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: loving nine year old, I think this is the only

356
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: one he'll ever want to listen to. But I imagine

357
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: he'll give you at least one. Well, actually, actually, that's

358
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: not what happened. This is what happened, because that's oh nice,

359
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: that's fine, that's fair. I will say, if he wants

360
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 1: their nerd out, you got to give him the bucksack.

361
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: Didn't show shields high where we do the real Dracula.

362
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: The history of lad Drakul from the sixteenth century. Fascinating guy,

363
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: fascinating period of history. I did the Siege of Malta,

364
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: the Fall of Constantinople. I sit around doing these things,

365
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: which is probably why I don't. Yeah, I'll send them

366
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: to you your If your son really loves history, they're

367
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,919
Speaker 1: very he would love to talk about it, listen to it.

368
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: He's like questioned these history competitions. Yeah, I'll send it

369
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: to him and and then he can send his critique

370
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 1: and you can you can give it to me gently

371
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,880

372
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,000

Speaker 1: six nine. All right, So I'd mentioned this, I'd promoted

400
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: this the c and effect. Here's what I say it

401
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: is as somebody who had previously worked there. I used

402
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: to be able to have conversations with liberals about things

403
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: that I disagreed with them on, and I still would

404
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: be willing to do that, by the way, and I've

405
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: I've to chose with left wing people with self described

406
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: you know, Marxist I've hoped, I saw, so I'm fine

407
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: with that. I feel though that now, even still in

408
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 1: the era of Biden, it is very hard to have

409
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: a conversation. And this is why I say it's a

410
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: CNN effect, because anytime he turned on CNN, it was Trump.

411
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 1: There was something Trump related. You know, if if if

412
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: there if an asteroid hit the hit the Earth and

413
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,199
Speaker 1: and you know there was like a barn caught on

414
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: fire in twenty twenty nineteen. It was like Trump fails

415
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: to prevent asteroid. I mean, it was just it was

416
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: a psychosis. Yeah, that that psychosis, to me, has continued,

417
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: like even though he's not president anymore. I try to

418
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: talk to a Democrat about anything, and it reverts to

419
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: Trump right away. It's I do think it's like a

420
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: mental illness, amount of mental illness. Part of me, it

421
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: can't speak. There's some problem. Yeah. No, I think they

422
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: were deeply damaged by Donald Trump winning. I mean, you're

423
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: in New York the day after he won the election

424
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, right, do you remember anything about that day? Oh? Yeah,

425
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: the day it was there was there were two days

426
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: I was in New York City that reminded me of

427
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: the day after Hurricane Sandy hit and Donald Trump's election felt.

428
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: I wasn't there for nine to eleven. I was in college.

429
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 1: But the day after Hurricane Sandy and the day after

430
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 1: Trump won, the field, the energy on the streets exactly

431
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: the same, just shock shock. It was a rainy day.

432
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: People were walking around as if like a meteor had

433
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 1: hit and it was Donald Trump's fault. It was really

434
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: just amazing to watch it. It was like their lives

435
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: had ended. And at the time, I really know that

436
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 1: I didn't want Trump to win. I preferred him over

437
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, but I really didn't like him, and I

438
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: thought that he was going to be a terrible president.

439
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: And I just you know, but I was like, all right, well,

440
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: Donald Trump won, what are you gonna do. That's you know,

441
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: that's good whatever. And people were just stunned. And I

442
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: don't think that they ever got over it. I think

443
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 1: that they just were traumatized by it. They expected to

444
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 1: win in such a way that that shock when you

445
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: don't win something that you thought you were going to win,

446
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: it didn't go away. It lasted years for them. It's

447
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: interesting that you call it the CNN effect, because I

448
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: feel like CNN has you mentioned that you can't talk

449
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,639
Speaker 1: to liberals anymore. And then it's like, you know, but

450
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: CNN used to have shows where liberals and conservatives talk

451
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: to each other, right, Well that's what that Yeah, yeah,

452
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 1: but they can't do that anymore, partially because of wokeness.

453
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 1: Wokeness says you cannot engage conservatives in honest conversation, and

454
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: that's also what they're doing. They're shutting down the honest

455
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: conversation that you're saying, but Trump, but Trump, And that

456
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: makes us finding common grounds so much harder because they

457
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: only have this one thing that they go to, and

458
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: you end up having to defend Donald Trump and everything

459
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: he's ever done. Yeah, I think that it has become

460
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 1: a it is a form of a psychosis. It's there's

461
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: something about the circuitry of of liberal brains now where

462
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: it look. It's obviously in the case with everybody, but

463
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 1: it's enough of a situation, or it's common enough that

464
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: I think it is a dominant I think it is

465
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: the majority of the Democrats that I try to engage

466
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 1: within any capacity. Now, if I say, hey, you know,

467
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: maybe maybe we shouldn't be teaching queer theory in an

468
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: African American studies program in Florida, which you know that

469
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: just came up and they ended up reverting and not

470
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: having that in the curriculum. People will say to me, oh,

471
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: so you know, you just think that like what Trump

472
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:37,360
Speaker 1: says about CRT and like where are we doing? Like, well,

473
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 1: how do we? And And that's why I get worried, Carol,

474
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: because when you see you know, mass movements like bankruptcy,

475
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 1: like so many things, it happened suddenly, it happened slowly

476
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: then suddenly, right, it's it's it grows over time. And

477
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: I've seen a mass movement inside of America where people

478
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,199
Speaker 1: who think of themselves as very discerning, very intelligent, and

479
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: very good people actually who are who are leftists, who

480
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: are democrats, liberals, progressives, whatever they want to call themselves.

481
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: I call them commies. And I don't mean that, you know,

482
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: in a nice way, but they will go along with

483
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: things now that it's not possible for a human being

484
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: who is capable of independent thought to go along with

485
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 1: this has become commonplace. Yeah, you're absolutely right. And are

486
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: you talking about people like in on Twitter or are

487
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: these people in your everyday life? Both both of us? Yeah,

488
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: Because I find that the people in my everyday life,

489
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 1: even the people on the left are way more troubled

490
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: by where the left is going, even if they are

491
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: themselves pretty far left, even if really they are, there

492
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: are so many ways that they are on the left,

493
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: and then suddenly they're a woman's study degree. What does

494
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: it really mean when we don't know what a woman

495
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: is right and and they're challenged by it, they don't

496
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 1: know how to handle it, they don't know what to say,

497
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: and they don't have the easy line that the somebody

498
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: online you know, on the internet has, where like everyone

499
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:05,640
Speaker 1: who doesn't agree with them as a turf, you know, right,

500
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: you know, intellectually, I do think it's interesting that it's

501
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: not a problem for a person who is of the

502
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 1: right broadly speaking to break with the right on some issues.

503
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: Yeah whatever, you know, you know, scroom, I don't I

504
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: don't care. Oh, the Republican Party says, you know, I

505
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 1: don't care. I think this. I think they're wrong on

506
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: the following. Every single conservative I know has a number

507
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: of issues where you know, they break with the base

508
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 1: or they don't like you know, whether it's they don't

509
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: like the you know, globalist Paul Ryan, Republicans or they do,

510
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: and you know whatever, there are these areas where they'll

511
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: just have this, have this separation. And I do think

512
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: though that the left very much like a cult or

513
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: a totalitary in a totalitarian state. There's a constant fear

514
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: of saying the imperfect thing that will get them in

515
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 1: trouble with their own side. And on gender issues, by

516
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: the way, that's more prominent I think than anywhere else. Well,

517
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: the whole thing is with cancel culture is that a

518
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: lot of it was left on left. It wasn't necessarily

519
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 1: the left coming for conservatives. I mean, it is in

520
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: some ways like you have to bake the cake stories,

521
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: you know, out of Colorado. So they do target sort

522
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: of you know, non leftists, but for the most part

523
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: it was like you wrote something that I don't like,

524
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: and if you're on the left, you end up apologizing.

525
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: And then it's like when you get into that spiral

526
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: where it's never going to be enough. Remember that book Dirt.

527
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: This woman wrote this book that was a really celebrated

528
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: American dirt, very celebrated book. But then it turned out

529
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 1: that she wrote about Mexican drug smugglers, and she herself

530
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 1: was not a Mexican, so she had to apologize, and

531
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 1: I think they ended up actually not having any public

532
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: relations for the book at all, because you know, she

533
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,640
Speaker 1: had obviously committed the worst sin in history writing about

534
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,640
Speaker 1: a culture that it was not her own. But how

535
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: a conservative writer handled that, they'd be like, okay, and

536
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 1: I so what, Yeah, I did that, and I'll do

537
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: it again. And we don't really care as much about

538
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,640
Speaker 1: their target. But once you bend to them at all,

539
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: you're going to keep bending all the time. That's what

540
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: we've seen up to this point. And obviously the progression

541
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: is always request for tolerance and then push for uh,

542
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 1: you know, a push for acceptance, and then demands for celebration. Right,

543
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: That's it just it always is on the same progression progressives,

544
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: where at first it's just let's just all be cool

545
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 1: to each other, right and that. And that's one of

546
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 1: the things that frustrates me so much about the approach

547
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: of the left is that I think on pronouns, for example,

548
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 1: and people say this is small. It is not small,

549
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: the same way it's not small to switch from illegal

550
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: alien to illegal immigrant to undocumented because you know, now

551
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: at this point, it's like, let's just give them documents,

552
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: like what do you need immigration for right? I mean,

553
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: the whole process is undermined by the language itself, the

554
00:28:55,800 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: concession of I'm going to use someone's preferred pronouns. They

555
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: have used the desire of people on the right to

556
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: be polite and to be conned in order to get

557
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: compliance on that issue, for example, And then people get

558
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: very confused because they go, hold on a second, why

559
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: does it feel like we're losing this argument on the

560
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: other side is crazy because you're conceding the argument. I mean,

561
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: every time I see a story about a transgender individual

562
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: in the Daily Mail and even sometimes on Foxnews dot Com,

563
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: it referred to what he is a she. So it's

564
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: interesting because I think my feeling would have been, in general,

565
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 1: use somebody's preferred pronoun But obviously I'm not using they,

566
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: and I'm not using anything invented, and I'm not using

567
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: any of the new ones. But You're absolutely right where

568
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 1: it's never enough. It's never like, Okay, I'll use your

569
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: preferred pronoun. Well, now I need you to use the

570
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: one that I just came up with today. And I'm

571
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: no longer the pronoun that you thought I was yesterday,

572
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: and now I'm something new and now I'm plural and etc.

573
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's never it never ends. And the thing

574
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: is that it's not just people on the right that

575
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: know this. It's just the people on the left are

576
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: terrified to be canceled and speak, you know, speak out

577
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: and have their jobs targeted. And in some ways they

578
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,080
Speaker 1: deserve it, right like they let this happen to their side,

579
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: But it is still sort of hard to watch people

580
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,479
Speaker 1: not be able to speak. I want to ask you

581
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: about some lessons from the uh, the married world, Carol,

582
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 1: now that I have entered these ranks. And also I

583
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: want to tell I want to get us into some

584
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: uh maybe some hot water by talking about what the kids,

585
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: and I mean the youth, you know, the young people

586
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: today need to know about relationships and truth and society

587
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: and all the red. Because now that I'm married guy,

588
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: now I feel like I can lecture everybody on everything,

589
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: just be like, hey, hold on is you know when

590
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: it comes to the young ones, you know what I mean,

591
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: the young bloods out there that think that you know,

592
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: just all a big party. Oh no, I'm here to

593
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 1: tell them about other things. But I also want to

00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: Carol M. Yeah, you know, now, I there's a great

615
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: US unit. Nate Bargatsy, the comedian god my favorite. I

616
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 1: like to brave about him all the time. Yeah, I'm

617
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: a fan too. It's so nice to it's funny because

618
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: I just it's amazing to see that a brand. The

619
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: same way today, there are people whose brands in journalism

620
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: is that they actually do journalism, you know what I mean, Like,

621
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: they're not actually a propagandist or a partisan activist for

622
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: one side of the other. They just they'll they'll tell

623
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: the stories that need to be told, and they don't

624
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: really care. And look, they're not perfect, but they're that's

625
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,719
Speaker 1: that's a fair assessment of what their approach to their

626
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: work is. Nate Burgassi is just a comedian. He's actually

627
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: just trying to tell jokes that make people laugh that

628
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: anyone can laugh at that are funny. I think he

629
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: does a great job. But he does this thing that

630
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,479
Speaker 1: you might not have noticed yet about him, but you

631
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: hopefully will down the road. All of his specials are

632
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: super kid friendly, no cursing, no like actually anything. Yeah

633
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: really Like my twelve year old daughter loves him. We

634
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,239
Speaker 1: watch like his clips all the time. We watched all

635
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: three specials. He's just family friendly. It's so weird to

636
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: be hilarious and family friendly. Yeah, he does such a

637
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: such a good job. But he has a thing where

638
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: when you're forty one or four forty three, you're like,

639
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: do you see the member? You're forty three and you're like, yeah,

640
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: like I can hang out with the twenty somethings, you know,

641
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: but like when you're see some guys forty five, you're like,

642
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: whoa old man? Like get out of here, you know,

643
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: because your your whole perception changes. Now now that I'm married,

644
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: I turn around and everybody out there under forty in single,

645
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: single world, I just I just want to, you know,

646
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 1: shake my walker or my my walking stick, my cane

647
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: in their face. You know, y'all get off my lawn

648
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: and say, you know what, what are all you kids

649
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: doing out there? With the crazy uh, the messaging and

650
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: and the look. I'll say, what they're teaching women in

651
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,719
Speaker 1: society today about how to conduct their private lives is,

652
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: I think is super destructive. It's super destructive at a

653
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: civilizational level. I think that it's um something that needs

654
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: to really be dealt with in a serious way as

655
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 1: part of an urgent conversation. Um, I think that basically

656
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: to be a Democrat or a leftist feminist woman in

657
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: America today is to put yourself on an almost certain

658
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 1: path to misery. That is my basic contention. Yeah, I

659
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: have to agree with you. I think that women are

660
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 1: allied to more than anyone else in terms of relationships,

661
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: and I think that they're taught to not ask for

662
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 1: what they want, the idea that they can just date

663
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,399
Speaker 1: around and not care about it. Women are different than men.

664
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 1: And what's interesting to me is that you know it

665
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 1: comes from the left, this whole idea of like, why

666
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 1: would you want to get married? You want to pursue

667
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: your career. I've never met a woman, and I think

668
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: you and I maybe even disagreed on this one, but

669
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: I've never met a woman who actually pursued a career

670
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: over a man. I know that there are women who

671
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 1: pursued a career and didn't get married. That happens, but

672
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 1: there's plenty of women who did not pursue a career

673
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: and didn't get married. I've never met a woman who

674
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: was on a good career path who didn't also want

675
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 1: to get married. But it just they tell them it

676
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: doesn't matter that you can be can be strong and

677
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: amazing alone and you don't need a man. What do

678
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: you need a man for? You could open your own jars.

679
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: And it's just the wrong message. And they teach that

680
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 1: relationships are lame and boring and only you know, the

681
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: worst people want to be in them. You want to

682
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: be single and free. And then when a woman realizes

683
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: that that's all a lie, a lot of times it's

684
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: too late. Here's my contention. I don't know if we've

685
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: talked about this. I think the show Sex in the City,

686
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 1: as clever and entertaining as it was, is it's almost

687
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 1: as though the Commies were trying to come up with

688
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,720
Speaker 1: a way to infiltrate American culture and society, to destroy,

689
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 1: to destroy male female relationships from within, you know, to

690
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 1: just have the whole thing implode on itself. To me,

691
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: that show is a very entertaining, pithy roadmap to misery

692
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 1: for you know, as somebody who lived in New York

693
00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: basically his whole life till I moved to Florida, I

694
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: just saw it. I saw it all over the place,

695
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: and I would see these women money go ahead, Yeah,

696
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: My counter to that would be that eventually all of

697
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,359
Speaker 1: them got married and settled down. The lie in that

698
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: show is that it's so easy to find a right

699
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: the right person as a woman when you're in your

700
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,439
Speaker 1: late thirties late forties in that show, and that it's

701
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: just you know, you're Samantha and you're a high powered

702
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: PR executive and you marry like the hottest man anybody's

703
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 1: ever seen, and that he's gonna just be super all

704
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,879
Speaker 1: about you even though you're in your fifties and he's

705
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: in his twenties, and that's going to make sense. That

706
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,280
Speaker 1: generally does not happen. So that's the kind of lie

707
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: that that show told. I think that. But the thing

708
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: is that they all did eventually kind of settle down

709
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 1: into relationships, and that's ultimately what they wanted. Well, you know,

710
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: I guess not to get too into this because it's like,

711
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 1: why don't I know so much about this show? I mean,

712
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: the main character never really does right as we know

713
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 1: then then the movies were made, and not that I

714
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: saw the movies, but you know, she ends up. She

715
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 1: kind of does, and she kind of doesn't. But just

716
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: the chasing of these career first lives that they have,

717
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: and and the one character who doesn't really uh you know,

718
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 1: the burnette I can't really remember um Amery can't remember

719
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: her name, but anyway, her whole thing. And now people like,

720
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: why does Buck still think about Sex in the City.

721
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 1: It was very popular in HBO when I was, you know,

722
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 1: high school age. Everybody was watching it. I mean it

723
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,320
Speaker 1: was a show that Beverly Hills nine two and HBO,

724
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 1: I mean, or Sex and the City and HBO. I mean,

725
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 1: these were the shows that everybody was watching. And I

726
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: see all these women. I mean, I remember when I

727
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: graduated from Amhurst and there were all these women who

728
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,360
Speaker 1: were rushing off to go work at Goldman Sachs and

729
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, from my class. I remember thinking to myself, like,

730
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 1: you know, I'm a guy. If I want to spend

731
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: my twenties, and I went to the CIA and you know,

732
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: then did some other kind of crazy stuff. But that

733
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 1: was my choice. But if I if I was going

734
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: to spend my twenties, um making a lot of money,

735
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: which is what people going to invest in banking for.

736
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: This may be a shock and not so much anymore,

737
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 1: but this, you know, twenty years ago, was what people

738
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: were doing I would assume that I'm mortgaging my twenties

739
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 1: at some level, like I'm just gonna burn out as

740
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: much as i can, get as much worked one, get

741
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 1: as far as I can, and make as much money

742
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 1: as I can, and develop as much prestige from the

743
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 1: competency that I have as I can. So then at

744
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: thirty or thirty five or even forty or even forty five,

745
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 1: I can turn around and have my choice of mates.

746
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,320
Speaker 1: And I just feel like no one ever stopped to

747
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 1: tell the women who showed up at Golden Sacks or

748
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 1: and not just any big firm or corporate law whatever,

749
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: at any of these places. Hey, you're twenty three or

750
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,359
Speaker 1: twenty four. If you do this for the next ten

751
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: years and this is really your focus, your life choices

752
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: are changed forever. Just understand that. Yeah, So here's another

753
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: way that the left destroys the path to women. If

754
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:49,919
Speaker 1: you are one of these women and you go into

755
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: this high powered, high energy, and high earning environment, it

756
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: would be great to meet a man there, except men

757
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,760
Speaker 1: now can't hit on you in the work place because

758
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 1: there they'd be sexual predators, and you're not allowed to

759
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 1: date at work, and there's all these issues around that.

760
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: But meeting somebody at work used to make a lot

761
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 1: of sense. And if you wanted to meet somebody who

762
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: was a go get or a Goldman Sax, there's really

763
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,439
Speaker 1: not a better place to meet them than at Goldman Sax.

764
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: So it's again, the left is destroying the idea of

765
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 1: relationships for these women when that's ultimately what they're going

766
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,360
Speaker 1: to want. And I do see a rise in a

767
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: willingness among conservatives in general now to speak with much

768
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 1: more forcefulness about about gender roles and about what's going

769
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: to make for a long term happy plan. And you

770
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 1: know what society, right, there's everyone. Look, there's always going

771
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:44,839
Speaker 1: to be somebody who just wants to travel the world

772
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: and write books. And that's fine. It's not that people

773
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: shouldn't have freedom and choice male, female or whatever, but

774
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: it's what does society offer as a path that should

775
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: be replicated in as great as great a frequency as

776
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 1: possible to create the most happy, productive and stable society possible. Right.

777
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: I mean, you know every policy is going to have exceptions.

778
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: Everything in the macro, when you break it down to

779
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: an individual level, is going to have musications that are different.

780
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 1: That's fine. Where people say well, do you think priests

781
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,439
Speaker 1: are throwing their lives away or you know whatever, because

782
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: obviously they don't marry. It's no obviously there are people

783
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 1: that don't need to go down this pathway. But the

784
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 1: other pathway that they're told about, which is just and

785
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 1: it's for women, I'll tell you it's for guys too.

786
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 1: It's not good. You know. I think that telling people

787
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: to spend their twenties partying, drinking, and having sex with

788
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: as many women as they possibly can, which is what

789
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: socially successful males are basically told to do, not necessarily

790
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: as many as possible. But you know, there's a lot

791
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 1: of that that goes on that's not actually helpful for

792
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: society and for those individuals. I think later on and

793
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: people say, oh, you know again, I've been married for

794
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: two days and all of a sudden, I'm an expert

795
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,840
Speaker 1: and everything. But I've known this stuff. I've known this

796
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: stuff for a long time. I'm coming up on fourteen years,

797
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 1: so I can definitely play the expert here. Yeah, men

798
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: are alive to also, but again, like you said, the

799
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,240
Speaker 1: man's window is just wider, and that's the only reason

800
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: that the men get away with it more than the

801
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,240
Speaker 1: women do. There's plenty of men who have been destroyed

802
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,919
Speaker 1: by that culture and who find themselves alone and maybe

803
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 1: want to get married, but don't know how to connect,

804
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 1: and they spent their twenties just messing around with random girls,

805
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,359
Speaker 1: and it is harder for them to find the right

806
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: person for themselves. So one of the other ways that

807
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 1: the left tells women that they have to like certain

808
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: things that they can't like other things. And I just

809
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: don't think that men get the same message that show madmen.

810
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 1: You know about the ad executives on Madison Avenue in

811
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: the sixties, there was the character played by John Hamm

812
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: and he was like this hard drinking, chain smoking, you know, womanizing,

813
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 1: just jerk, and all these liberal magazines would write these

814
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: like tehehe pieces about how attracted they were to the

815
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,880
Speaker 1: character Don Draper and how they knew that they weren't

816
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: supposed to be. But men don't really have that, you

817
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,280
Speaker 1: you know, you don't only have the like I'm attracted

818
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 1: to the cocktail Wagers, but I feel so bad about it.

819
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 1: But the Left makes women feel bad about what they're

820
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 1: attracted to. And that's crazy. What you're attracted to is

821
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 1: what you're attracted to and the fact that you know

822
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: Don Draper did it for so many women is a

823
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 1: sign that they liked a more powerful guy and that

824
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 1: you weren't supposed to like him, and you knew you

825
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: weren't supposed to like him. Is what the left and

826
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 1: force is here. So you used to live in Brooklyn,

827
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: so you know plenty of people on the left, and

828
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 1: you're cool, so you have cool left wing friends. Did

829
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: any of your cool left wing female friends, to your knowledge,

830
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 1: actually think that a guy that was interested in them romantically,

831
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,800
Speaker 1: who described himself as a male feminist was doing himself

832
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: any favors. I think the ones that I knew knew

833
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 1: that any male feminist was likely just trying to get

834
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 1: in their pants. But you know, I know that there's

835
00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:01,359
Speaker 1: a wider world where the male feminist does enjoy some

836
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,479
Speaker 1: you know, perks of being a male feminist. I also

837
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: I lived on a commune in Scotland where everybody was

838
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: a male feminist. And yeah, the ones who could successfully

839
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,360
Speaker 1: argue their case and make it seem like they weren't

840
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 1: just after one thing did quite well with the ladies.

841
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,919
Speaker 1: It's just stunning, stunning the scams that people could pull off.

842
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 1: Do you think that there's a room or a necessity

843
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 1: even for the right and for the Republican Party to

844
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:38,359
Speaker 1: really start to articulate a family and you know, traditional

845
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: family values agenda. Again, I feel like it fell off.

846
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:42,800
Speaker 1: I used to hear about this all the time in

847
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,280
Speaker 1: the nineties. Oh you know that, you know, traditional family.

848
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 1: Various people talk about Philish Laughley and how she defeated

849
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,440
Speaker 1: the Eagle Rights Amendment, and there was all this discussion

850
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: of you know, you know, focus on the family, support

851
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 1: the family. It fell off, And it does feel like

852
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 1: now the left and the Democrat Party is just at

853
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 1: its core run by a lot of unhappy you know,

854
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: cat ladies with blue hair and nose rings, right, And

855
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 1: I think there should be but it has to be

856
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: done in a cooler way. I mean, social media just

857
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 1: changed everything. So now the left has on social media, like,

858
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 1: you know, polyamory is very popular on social media, and

859
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,240
Speaker 1: you have these couples like arguing on social media. How

860
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 1: you know, monogamy is so out and it's so outdated,

861
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: and it's like, do you think you're the first people

862
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 1: to try this? Like do you think that throughout civilizations

863
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 1: they haven't considered the idea of being with multiple partners.

864
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: You're not that unique. And yet you think that you

865
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: come up with this new idea that's going to work

866
00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: for only you and nobody else, you know, throughout history,

867
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 1: and the fact is it never works. And that's why

868
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 1: people settle onto monogamy. It's not because we don't have

869
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,279
Speaker 1: the imagination to consider having multiple partners. It's because it's

870
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,800
Speaker 1: always a fail. And so I think the right should

871
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: target this kind of messaging and show relationships as being

872
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: a positive thing. If relationships are always a downer, I

873
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 1: can see why the marriage rate is decreasing. But you know,

874
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,800
Speaker 1: even beyond just the marriage rate, which is a problem,

875
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 1: and then the birth rate, you know, declining as a

876
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: giant problem. People are having fewer relationships, they're having fewer friendships.

877
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,440
Speaker 1: All of this is very bad for our society and

878
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: it needs to be turned around, and it has to

879
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,480
Speaker 1: be turned around in a smart way, and social media

880
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,399
Speaker 1: really should be utilized in this pursuit. Do you think

881
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 1: I think it's Professor Scott Galloway at NYU, who you know,

882
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 1: spits fire about Trump and says a lot of things

883
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: I think about the Right in general that are are

884
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,479
Speaker 1: not intelligent and not well thought out, but he does

885
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: say some things on social broader social issues you know,

886
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:48,319
Speaker 1: think I'm talking about By the way, he's started to

887
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 1: pick up a lot of team he's been on Bill

888
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:54,080
Speaker 1: Maher recently. He's there tiktoks and things like that with him.

889
00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: But he talks about what he calls Porsche polygamy, and

890
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: he says that in the world of dating apps, which

891
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 1: you know, everyone's always walking around coming up with their

892
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: story for how they met their person, that is not

893
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 1: we met on a dating app. It's kind of funny,

894
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: right when you realize right now, I mean, it's it's

895
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: gone to the point where, um, if you're not on

896
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: dating apps, actually you're almost not in the dating pool

897
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,359
Speaker 1: if you're a single person, because it's there's just such

898
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 1: a there's been such a change, and people don't go

899
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 1: to nightclubs anymore the same way, you know, because it

900
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: works and because this is but you also work, they're

901
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 1: not allowed to meet at work anymore, which yeah, they're not.

902
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 1: You're oh no, you're you're definitely it's very suspect. I

903
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,720
Speaker 1: mean I, for example, I've never dated anybody at a company,

904
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 1: never mind like a direct report or anything like that.

905
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,799
Speaker 1: I've never dated anybody at a company where I have

906
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 1: been an employee, with the exception of the CIA. But

907
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: like that's you know, like that's like going to that

908
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 1: that's enormous, and you know, there's you want to think about.

909
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 1: The CIA is if you don't want to see the

910
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: person you're dating to the CIA again, you never will

911
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,879
Speaker 1: because you know who knows whether going to be said next.

912
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,879
Speaker 1: But in a you know, even there there were very

913
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: kind of strict rules about about reporting requirements and things

914
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 1: like that if you had a relationship internally, you know,

915
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 1: in the same office or anything like that. I just

916
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,720
Speaker 1: think that you have this situation where women are being

917
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,280
Speaker 1: and maybe now this is getting a more contentious territory.

918
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 1: Women are being trained to think like men in their

919
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: dating selection. And you see that so Zi Gallery talks

920
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:32,799
Speaker 1: about porship, progresivism, sorry, Porsche polygamy where he says that

921
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:36,279
Speaker 1: eighty percent of the women have an interest in only

922
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 1: twenty percent of the men. Basically that you have this

923
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,959
Speaker 1: and and that women are instead of choosing for things

924
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 1: that require more of a relationship basis to understand, I

925
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 1: know the flip side of this, women will say, but

926
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: men are so superficial, which brings us to the Yes,

927
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 1: men are more superficial about women's appearance than women. That

928
00:47:57,640 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 1: this is the way it has been in all of

929
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,439
Speaker 1: human history until now. But you have all these women

930
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 1: who are saying, I won't get a guy who's under

931
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,879
Speaker 1: six foot two, and I you know, and I want

932
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: a guy with a six pack, and I want a

933
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: guy with like lots of tattoos all over his arms

934
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:13,360
Speaker 1: and these sorts of things, and that this is creating

935
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: a society where thirty percent of men, I think he

936
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 1: said this is again from Scott Gallery, thirty percent of

937
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 1: men under thirty haven't had a sexual relationship in the

938
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,720
Speaker 1: last year. That's main blowing, right, And are the women,

939
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: I mean, are the women having sexual relationships because if

940
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 1: it seems like the eighty percent can't be just sleeping

941
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 1: with the twenty percent, right, So you know, it's it's funny.

942
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 1: You're right, men do go for looks more than you

943
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,840
Speaker 1: know women do or have. Maybe that's changing now, but

944
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,920
Speaker 1: women used to go for security, and I don't think

945
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 1: that was a bad thing. I don't think you know,

946
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 1: women choosing partners who are not going to be bad

947
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 1: to them is a bad thing. I don't know. I

948
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,239
Speaker 1: really don't understand the concept that I see a lot

949
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 1: on social media now where the woman only wants the

950
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,280
Speaker 1: guy who doesn't want her, and that makes no sense

951
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 1: to me. That's like, I can't imagine liking somebody who

952
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 1: does not like me. That that just does not compute

953
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 1: at all. And that's like what's happening now that they're

954
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,080
Speaker 1: being kind of trained to like the ones who will

955
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:16,280
Speaker 1: never like them back. I also think that there's this again,

956
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 1: there's this desire to treat men and women as though

957
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 1: the same, whether it's in sports now or and all

958
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 1: this stuff, that there's this same enforced sameness that does

959
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 1: not exist. Men and women process sexual relationships differently emotionally.

960
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,399
Speaker 1: I know people say, oh, I know women that could

961
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,359
Speaker 1: you know they can sleep with a hundred guys, And

962
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 1: it's a no, Actually, it really is just not true.

963
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 1: And they can tell themselves this as much as they want.

964
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:44,959
Speaker 1: But the psychological toll on women of conducting themselves this way,

965
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,319
Speaker 1: and I've seen it from plenty of women that I know,

966
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,879
Speaker 1: and plenty women I know who never get in the number.

967
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 1: It would be stunning, I think to the people in

968
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 1: the rest of the country the number of really good, looking,

969
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:59,160
Speaker 1: really interesting and compelling in a whole range of ways.

970
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,959
Speaker 1: Women in New York City thirty five to forty five

971
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 1: that are not married, we'll probably never get married, and

972
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 1: we'll probably never have children. I think would blow the

973
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,839
Speaker 1: minds of people who don't live in you know, DC

974
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:15,439
Speaker 1: or LA or you know San Francisco. Yeah. I think

975
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 1: that big cities have the worst problem of telling women, um,

976
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 1: what they should be interested in and what they should

977
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 1: be looking for, and how that really doesn't fit in

978
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,840
Speaker 1: with what women are and what we actually feel and

979
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:29,919
Speaker 1: all those other things. You're right, we're not the same.

980
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: I don't know why we need to be the same.

981
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to be like a man. You guys

982
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 1: are just not that great. Yeah, I mean, you know

983
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:40,799
Speaker 1: we kind of smell sometimes. Yeah, we all we got

984
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: we all got manned thighs. You know which we're not.

985
00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: You know, women and women were constructed for for beauty

986
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 1: and aesthetics and and you know the you know, you're

987
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 1: all aphrodites. You know, you're all God's gift and creating

988
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:58,359
Speaker 1: the next generation. And guys, you know, we can dress,

989
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: We can dress like Zelenski when we don't even mean

990
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 1: to and things like that can happen. We already married anymore,

991
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 1: that's right. Um, I didn't say that allowed today. So

992
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 1: everybody should go get Carol's book, which you should get

993
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,000
