00:00:20,177 --> 00:00:23,017
Speaker 2: Hey, everybody, welcome to the Buck Sexton Show. Our friend

5
00:00:23,217 --> 00:00:26,777
Speaker 2: Riley Gaines joins us. Now you have no doubt heard

6
00:00:26,817 --> 00:00:31,497
Speaker 2: about her. She is the fastest woman in her event

7
00:00:31,577 --> 00:00:35,377
Speaker 2: in the NCAA swimming. She can tell me the specifics

8
00:00:35,417 --> 00:00:39,097
Speaker 2: about what the meters and event may be in just

9
00:00:39,097 --> 00:00:40,897
Speaker 2: a second. We're excited to have her join us. She's

10
00:00:40,897 --> 00:00:44,217
Speaker 2: also out there speaking on campuses across the country as

11
00:00:44,217 --> 00:00:49,337
Speaker 2: an advocate for women in sports. To have it just

12
00:00:49,377 --> 00:00:51,337
Speaker 2: be women in sports, actually, I think is one way

13
00:00:51,337 --> 00:00:54,417
Speaker 2: we could put it. Riley, thank you so much for

14
00:00:54,457 --> 00:00:56,617
Speaker 2: being here with us. First off, what was the event

15
00:00:56,657 --> 00:00:58,377
Speaker 2: that you were the best in the country at, just

16
00:00:58,417 --> 00:01:00,897
Speaker 2: so I was it butterfly or backstroke? I don't know.

17
00:01:01,097 --> 00:01:02,977
Speaker 2: I do doggy paddle. I'm not good at this.

18
00:01:04,097 --> 00:01:06,297
Speaker 1: Well it might to swim now I would do doggy paddle.

19
00:01:06,857 --> 00:01:08,617
Speaker 1: But it was actually the two hundred free style where

20
00:01:08,657 --> 00:01:10,337
Speaker 1: I tied Thomas Wow.

21
00:01:10,377 --> 00:01:13,137
Speaker 2: Okay, so just tell everybody how you got into this.

22
00:01:13,177 --> 00:01:14,937
Speaker 2: Some of the folks are at home and listing are

23
00:01:14,977 --> 00:01:18,257
Speaker 2: going to know. But for those who could use a refresher,

24
00:01:18,297 --> 00:01:21,617
Speaker 2: who don't know, what was the situation that you faced

25
00:01:21,617 --> 00:01:23,537
Speaker 2: in the NCAA final.

26
00:01:24,737 --> 00:01:29,137
Speaker 1: Absolutely, So the first day of competition at our INNSIBLA Championships,

27
00:01:29,137 --> 00:01:31,817
Speaker 1: and this was last year in twenty twenty two, that

28
00:01:31,897 --> 00:01:34,977
Speaker 1: first day, that was the day that I didn't compete.

29
00:01:34,977 --> 00:01:37,497
Speaker 1: And so this was the five hundred free sylend. I

30
00:01:37,537 --> 00:01:39,337
Speaker 1: sat on the side of the pool and watched as

31
00:01:39,417 --> 00:01:43,617
Speaker 1: Thomas swam to a national title, beating out Olympians, beating

32
00:01:43,657 --> 00:01:46,617
Speaker 1: out American record holders. And when I say Thomas, I

33
00:01:46,657 --> 00:01:50,457
Speaker 1: should clarify this is Leah Thomas, who was formerly Will Thomas,

34
00:01:50,497 --> 00:01:53,857
Speaker 1: who swam three years on the men's team at University

35
00:01:53,857 --> 00:01:57,737
Speaker 1: of Pennsylvania before deciding to switch to the women's team.

36
00:01:57,777 --> 00:02:00,177
Speaker 1: At best amongst the men the year before, was ranked

37
00:02:00,177 --> 00:02:05,297
Speaker 1: four hundred and sixty second. So watching Thomas now beat

38
00:02:05,337 --> 00:02:07,657
Speaker 1: all of the women in the country by multiple seconds,

39
00:02:08,537 --> 00:02:13,617
Speaker 1: obviously it's unfair. Obviously it's wrong. Anyone with a brain

40
00:02:13,857 --> 00:02:17,737
Speaker 1: can see this. So that second day of competition was

41
00:02:17,777 --> 00:02:19,897
Speaker 1: the day that Thomas and I raced against each other

42
00:02:19,937 --> 00:02:23,457
Speaker 1: in the tun inter freestyle, to which ultimately resulted in

43
00:02:23,497 --> 00:02:26,497
Speaker 1: a tie. We went the exact same time down to

44
00:02:26,537 --> 00:02:30,057
Speaker 1: the hundredth of a second, and so upon tying, we

45
00:02:30,137 --> 00:02:32,457
Speaker 1: go behind the awards podium where the n DOUBLEA official

46
00:02:32,497 --> 00:02:34,657
Speaker 1: looks at both Thomas and myself and says, great job,

47
00:02:35,017 --> 00:02:37,017
Speaker 1: you guys tied, but we have one trophy, So this

48
00:02:37,097 --> 00:02:40,537
Speaker 1: trophy goes to Thomas. And when I question this, you know,

49
00:02:41,137 --> 00:02:44,057
Speaker 1: why are you adamant on giving this trophy to Leah

50
00:02:44,097 --> 00:02:48,057
Speaker 1: a male? The nce double official looked at me and said, well,

51
00:02:48,777 --> 00:02:52,057
Speaker 1: Leah has to hold the trophy for photo purposes. You

52
00:02:52,057 --> 00:02:53,937
Speaker 1: can pose with this one, but you'll give it back.

53
00:02:54,057 --> 00:02:56,457
Speaker 1: You go home empty handed, and Leah takes the trophy home.

54
00:02:57,097 --> 00:03:00,857
Speaker 1: And so obviously I knew the unfair competition was wrong,

55
00:03:00,897 --> 00:03:03,337
Speaker 1: and I knew what we were subjected to in the

56
00:03:03,337 --> 00:03:07,417
Speaker 1: locker room was wrong. But when this inc double official

57
00:03:07,497 --> 00:03:11,377
Speaker 1: reduced everything that myself and my teammates and every female

58
00:03:11,417 --> 00:03:13,777
Speaker 1: who's at that meat, when he reduces that down to

59
00:03:13,857 --> 00:03:16,937
Speaker 1: a photo op to validate the feelings and the identity

60
00:03:16,937 --> 00:03:20,337
Speaker 1: of a male, that's when I had had enough. And

61
00:03:20,377 --> 00:03:23,657
Speaker 1: that's really what thrusted me into taking a public stance

62
00:03:23,697 --> 00:03:26,497
Speaker 1: on saying it's wrong and it's harmful. To women to

63
00:03:26,497 --> 00:03:29,257
Speaker 1: have males infiltrate into our sports in our spaces.

64
00:03:29,657 --> 00:03:33,697
Speaker 2: So now I have to ask who in this process, right,

65
00:03:33,737 --> 00:03:38,457
Speaker 2: who in this process was saying to you, this is normal,

66
00:03:38,537 --> 00:03:41,257
Speaker 2: this is okay. When is the first time. I'm always

67
00:03:41,257 --> 00:03:45,337
Speaker 2: fascinated by this because I'm making a study of mass

68
00:03:45,417 --> 00:03:47,897
Speaker 2: lunacy these days, like things that people are being told

69
00:03:47,897 --> 00:03:50,417
Speaker 2: they have to believe. I mean, one of the for me,

70
00:03:50,937 --> 00:03:54,057
Speaker 2: masking and the way people approach masking during COVID change

71
00:03:54,137 --> 00:03:58,417
Speaker 2: my sense of humanity and what Americans specifically but globally

72
00:03:58,457 --> 00:04:01,737
Speaker 2: also people were willing to do the transgender issues very

73
00:04:01,737 --> 00:04:04,257
Speaker 2: similar to me. And people will say things and they'll

74
00:04:04,297 --> 00:04:06,497
Speaker 2: behave in a way that they clearly know is false,

75
00:04:06,497 --> 00:04:10,217
Speaker 2: but they they just don't care. And I'm wondering who

76
00:04:10,297 --> 00:04:12,657
Speaker 2: was at any point in this with someone like no,

77
00:04:13,377 --> 00:04:15,657
Speaker 2: Thomas is a woman and you need to stop being

78
00:04:15,737 --> 00:04:17,577
Speaker 2: a bigot. Like was that ever said to you by

79
00:04:17,577 --> 00:04:21,017
Speaker 2: anybody in the in the sports world or was it

80
00:04:21,137 --> 00:04:23,577
Speaker 2: just you're supposed to show up at Everyone just doesn't

81
00:04:23,577 --> 00:04:26,777
Speaker 2: say anything like Emperor's no emperor has no clothes kind

82
00:04:26,777 --> 00:04:27,577
Speaker 2: of stuff, you know what I mean?

83
00:04:27,977 --> 00:04:31,457
Speaker 1: It was really like that. It was just as if

84
00:04:31,457 --> 00:04:34,577
Speaker 1: no one wanted to address it. Really, it was as

85
00:04:34,617 --> 00:04:37,257
Speaker 1: if we were supposed to smile and be kind and

86
00:04:37,337 --> 00:04:40,657
Speaker 1: be inclusive, even if that meant giving up our spots

87
00:04:40,657 --> 00:04:43,697
Speaker 1: on the podium, even if it meant feeling uncomfortable in

88
00:04:43,697 --> 00:04:47,657
Speaker 1: the locker room where you're being exposed to mel genitalia. Smile,

89
00:04:47,817 --> 00:04:50,497
Speaker 1: be kind, it's fine, be welcoming, be tolerant.

90
00:04:50,737 --> 00:04:52,257
Speaker 2: I don't want to be gross, but I mean, I'm

91
00:04:52,297 --> 00:04:55,177
Speaker 2: just I think it is important to the discussion. So

92
00:04:55,177 --> 00:05:01,497
Speaker 2: so would would Thomas like undress nude next to you

93
00:05:01,537 --> 00:05:04,217
Speaker 2: and your female And does he still date women?

94
00:05:04,297 --> 00:05:04,377
Speaker 1: Like?

95
00:05:04,417 --> 00:05:07,057
Speaker 2: Do we know this? By the way, So no, I mean,

96
00:05:07,337 --> 00:05:09,737
Speaker 2: like I think that matters well.

97
00:05:09,777 --> 00:05:11,817
Speaker 1: At the time, when we were sharing this locker room,

98
00:05:13,057 --> 00:05:17,177
Speaker 1: when Thomas is fully intact with male parts, Thomas's teammates

99
00:05:17,177 --> 00:05:21,977
Speaker 1: alerted me that he was still active with women. Now,

100
00:05:22,817 --> 00:05:25,177
Speaker 1: it's extremely confusing, and I know this based off of

101
00:05:25,697 --> 00:05:29,857
Speaker 1: public social media posts on their instagrams. Leah is now

102
00:05:29,937 --> 00:05:34,257
Speaker 1: dating another male to female transitioner. I believe they call

103
00:05:34,337 --> 00:05:38,177
Speaker 1: themselves lesbians, but it's really just two men. So it's

104
00:05:38,577 --> 00:05:43,777
Speaker 1: extremely confusing. It feels as if this is a fetish

105
00:05:43,977 --> 00:05:46,337
Speaker 1: because now it's come out also that Leah Thomas is

106
00:05:46,417 --> 00:05:49,697
Speaker 1: just an AGP, which means you're just sexually aroused by

107
00:05:49,777 --> 00:05:52,977
Speaker 1: dressing as a woman. And it feels as if we,

108
00:05:53,017 --> 00:05:56,057
Speaker 1: as female athletes sharing this change of space, we were

109
00:05:56,097 --> 00:05:59,297
Speaker 1: betrayed by the people who were supposed to protect us.

110
00:05:59,337 --> 00:06:03,057
Speaker 1: We were forced to participate in this fetish.

111
00:06:03,057 --> 00:06:06,537
Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, I mean, so is that auto gynophilia? Is

112
00:06:06,537 --> 00:06:09,057
Speaker 2: that when you said was that the acronym? You just

113
00:06:09,057 --> 00:06:11,137
Speaker 2: threw out their second ago? So, I mean, I don't

114
00:06:11,137 --> 00:06:13,537
Speaker 2: know how many people at home even know that. One

115
00:06:13,537 --> 00:06:15,217
Speaker 2: thing that's been fat Clearly you've done a lot of

116
00:06:15,257 --> 00:06:17,657
Speaker 2: reading and research on this, by the way, because one

117
00:06:17,657 --> 00:06:20,697
Speaker 2: thing that I think more people need to know about

118
00:06:21,017 --> 00:06:25,457
Speaker 2: is I've often brought up on Radio Riley that among

119
00:06:25,497 --> 00:06:30,297
Speaker 2: the medical profession specialties, psychiatry is the most left wing,

120
00:06:30,417 --> 00:06:33,417
Speaker 2: the most insane, the most Marxists, which I guess makes

121
00:06:33,417 --> 00:06:36,257
Speaker 2: sense to some people who think about surgeons like people

122
00:06:36,257 --> 00:06:39,017
Speaker 2: who have to fix your heart or your knee or

123
00:06:39,057 --> 00:06:43,577
Speaker 2: your shoulder the most conservative. Unsurprisingly by far so, people

124
00:06:43,577 --> 00:06:46,257
Speaker 2: that are fixing the stuff and if they fail, you

125
00:06:46,457 --> 00:06:49,497
Speaker 2: die in their politics tend to be very conservative. People

126
00:06:49,577 --> 00:06:51,697
Speaker 2: who are like, you know, tell me about your mother,

127
00:06:51,817 --> 00:06:55,297
Speaker 2: you know, like they're leaning left. And obviously now a

128
00:06:55,337 --> 00:06:58,057
Speaker 2: lot of them have been have been brought into this.

129
00:06:59,257 --> 00:07:01,497
Speaker 2: You know, no one really even does Freudian analysis anymore,

130
00:07:01,497 --> 00:07:02,897
Speaker 2: so that was kind of a bad freud joke. But

131
00:07:04,177 --> 00:07:07,457
Speaker 2: they're they're they've been brought into this transagenda. But it

132
00:07:07,497 --> 00:07:09,777
Speaker 2: was known for a long time, and clearly you know

133
00:07:09,857 --> 00:07:15,137
Speaker 2: this that cross dressing is a form of sexual arousal

134
00:07:15,217 --> 00:07:17,217
Speaker 2: for some people, which is why they have been doing

135
00:07:17,257 --> 00:07:19,857
Speaker 2: it for a very long time. The reason that they

136
00:07:19,937 --> 00:07:23,777
Speaker 2: suppressed this, obviously is one it brings a deviancy component

137
00:07:23,817 --> 00:07:26,137
Speaker 2: into for example, Leah Thomas being with you in the

138
00:07:26,577 --> 00:07:29,257
Speaker 2: women's dressing room. You know, on a swim team, you

139
00:07:29,257 --> 00:07:30,937
Speaker 2: guys are all getting naked and out of bathing suits,

140
00:07:30,977 --> 00:07:33,657
Speaker 2: the whole thing. And also, obviously we can talk about

141
00:07:33,657 --> 00:07:37,817
Speaker 2: this in a second, the transgender story, our stuff with kids.

142
00:07:38,777 --> 00:07:40,857
Speaker 2: What the heck is that all about? If people are

143
00:07:40,937 --> 00:07:43,097
Speaker 2: driving sexual pleasure from dressing up in this way and

144
00:07:43,097 --> 00:07:46,417
Speaker 2: then they want to be around children. Psychiatrists, by the way,

145
00:07:46,417 --> 00:07:49,737
Speaker 2: pretend that this has not been known for a long time.

146
00:07:49,817 --> 00:07:52,177
Speaker 2: Now they've abandoned this, I mean, Jordan Peterson will talk

147
00:07:52,177 --> 00:07:52,497
Speaker 2: about it.

148
00:07:52,537 --> 00:07:57,937
Speaker 1: That's about it right, No, exactly. I think it's it

149
00:07:58,057 --> 00:08:03,577
Speaker 1: just feels as if we're abandoning all normalcy all what

150
00:08:03,737 --> 00:08:07,737
Speaker 1: I mean, we're changing the definitions of woman of our language,

151
00:08:08,057 --> 00:08:10,977
Speaker 1: and it's a really chilling thought. I know you mentioned Marxism,

152
00:08:11,057 --> 00:08:14,977
Speaker 1: but truthfully, we're changing language. We're breaking down faith and

153
00:08:15,017 --> 00:08:18,977
Speaker 1: family and freedoms. We're trying to silence voices. It's a

154
00:08:19,017 --> 00:08:21,697
Speaker 1: lot bigger than just women's sports. There's a lot of

155
00:08:21,697 --> 00:08:23,697
Speaker 1: different components to this, and it makes you want to

156
00:08:23,737 --> 00:08:27,177
Speaker 1: step back and kind of wonder, why is this happening.

157
00:08:27,217 --> 00:08:28,697
Speaker 1: What's the bigger picture here?

158

Speaker 2: I want to ask I want to ask you about

159

161
00:08:35,417 --> 00:08:39,337

00:08:43,897 --> 00:08:46,097
Speaker 2: five six cups of coffee a day. They might want

165
00:08:46,137 --> 00:08:49,377
Speaker 2: to try something else to give them that all natural

166
00:08:49,497 --> 00:08:53,417

Speaker 2: So was this your Were you somebody before who I mean?

183
00:09:46,337 --> 00:09:49,537
Speaker 2: Were you like me, you know, a college Republican nerd

184
00:09:49,577 --> 00:09:52,537
Speaker 2: who is praying to Saint Reagan sometimes? Or were you

185
00:09:52,617 --> 00:09:54,737
Speaker 2: somebody who was like, Eh, I'm just gonna be a

186
00:09:54,737 --> 00:09:57,137
Speaker 2: really really good swimmer, you know, get the best grades

187
00:09:57,177 --> 00:09:58,937
Speaker 2: I can, enjoy my college life and I'll figure out

188
00:09:58,937 --> 00:10:00,697
Speaker 2: politics later, Like where were you in all this?

189
00:10:02,457 --> 00:10:07,217
Speaker 1: I've always been politically in tune. I've always known who

190
00:10:07,297 --> 00:10:10,257
Speaker 1: is where, what's going on. But by no means I

191
00:10:10,297 --> 00:10:14,537
Speaker 1: have a political background. When I graduated University of Kentucky

192
00:10:14,617 --> 00:10:17,257
Speaker 1: last year, I had every intention on being in dental

193
00:10:17,257 --> 00:10:20,297
Speaker 1: school actually this year, but I put that off for

194
00:10:20,337 --> 00:10:24,337
Speaker 1: a while to kind of pursue fighting for protecting women's

195
00:10:24,337 --> 00:10:26,857
Speaker 1: sports because I saw there was no one else who

196
00:10:27,257 --> 00:10:30,977
Speaker 1: had been directly impacted with the same powerful testimony. And

197
00:10:32,137 --> 00:10:34,657
Speaker 1: I guess I can say courage. I hate that it

198
00:10:34,857 --> 00:10:38,817
Speaker 1: even requires courage to say what I'm saying that I had,

199
00:10:38,817 --> 00:10:42,217
Speaker 1: And so I pushed dental school off, and so I'm

200
00:10:42,217 --> 00:10:44,617
Speaker 1: supposed to go back to dental school this fall, but

201
00:10:44,857 --> 00:10:48,417
Speaker 1: I'm still looking at what that looks like, just because

202
00:10:48,457 --> 00:10:51,857
Speaker 1: I still feel like there's not enough people girls, women,

203
00:10:51,977 --> 00:10:55,577
Speaker 1: female athletes and male athletes quite frankly, who are willing

204
00:10:55,657 --> 00:10:58,537
Speaker 1: to talk about this and take a public stance. And

205
00:10:58,617 --> 00:11:03,017
Speaker 1: so I'm learning every day by no means was this

206
00:11:03,097 --> 00:11:07,057
Speaker 1: something I ever wish for, I ever wanted. So it's

207
00:11:07,097 --> 00:11:09,697
Speaker 1: been an eye opening experience, to say the.

208
00:11:09,697 --> 00:11:14,937
Speaker 2: Least, now that you're somebody who is out there speaking

209
00:11:14,937 --> 00:11:17,777
Speaker 2: about this. We'll get to what happened to you at

210
00:11:17,817 --> 00:11:22,337
Speaker 2: what was it, Sandy, San Francisco State University? Is that right? Yeah,

211
00:11:22,337 --> 00:11:24,377
Speaker 2: we'll get to that in a second. We were talking

212
00:11:24,377 --> 00:11:26,457
Speaker 2: about that on the radio show recently and had you

213
00:11:26,457 --> 00:11:30,017
Speaker 2: on to speak about it. But I just wonder do

214
00:11:30,217 --> 00:11:34,297
Speaker 2: any collegiate athletes, whenever someone stands up in front of

215
00:11:34,337 --> 00:11:36,417
Speaker 2: an auditorium, right, and you know this, because you're doing this,

216
00:11:37,257 --> 00:11:39,937
Speaker 2: if they take the whole you know, calling you a

217
00:11:39,937 --> 00:11:42,777
Speaker 2: bigot or anything like that, that's just that's just virtue

218
00:11:42,777 --> 00:11:44,977
Speaker 2: signaling among their peer group, right, that's just because they

219
00:11:44,977 --> 00:11:47,097
Speaker 2: want they want a video of them being so brave.

220
00:11:47,537 --> 00:11:50,297
Speaker 2: I'm not interested in that because that's obvious why somebody

221
00:11:50,337 --> 00:11:53,417
Speaker 2: would do that, right, because we understand that the political dynamics.

222
00:11:53,737 --> 00:11:57,337
Speaker 2: But do any either when you were swimming at a

223
00:11:57,617 --> 00:12:03,817
Speaker 2: national champion level or afterwards, do any actual female athletes

224
00:12:03,977 --> 00:12:06,297
Speaker 2: reach out to you in earnestness, right, like, in all

225
00:12:06,337 --> 00:12:09,537
Speaker 2: honesty and say you really were swimming against a woman,

226
00:12:09,617 --> 00:12:12,417
Speaker 2: Like why can you see that? I'm just I'm curious.

227
00:12:14,497 --> 00:12:20,017
Speaker 1: No, I haven't really had anyone who, especially an athlete

228
00:12:20,017 --> 00:12:23,297
Speaker 1: competing at the level that I've had who has reached

229
00:12:23,297 --> 00:12:26,897
Speaker 1: out and criticized me for feeling uncomfortable in the locker room,

230
00:12:26,937 --> 00:12:30,737
Speaker 1: or criticized me for wanting fair competition. And I think

231
00:12:30,737 --> 00:12:32,857
Speaker 1: it's because the people who are competing at the same

232
00:12:32,937 --> 00:12:35,337
Speaker 1: level I was that that meat we were at is

233
00:12:35,377 --> 00:12:37,657
Speaker 1: the fastest meat in the world, the fastest short course

234
00:12:37,697 --> 00:12:42,537
Speaker 1: meat in the world. So it's obviously a high level.

235
00:12:42,657 --> 00:12:47,937
Speaker 1: Meet those girls who worked their entire lives to get there.

236
00:12:48,217 --> 00:12:51,057
Speaker 1: They know the sacrifices that they've had to make. They've

237
00:12:51,177 --> 00:12:54,377
Speaker 1: competed on teams with men before, and they know that

238
00:12:54,577 --> 00:12:57,057
Speaker 1: an average level man, which is what we're seeing in

239
00:12:57,057 --> 00:12:59,577
Speaker 1: the case of Lea Thomas, could be the best woman

240
00:12:59,577 --> 00:13:03,697
Speaker 1: in the country by body links. And again that's exactly

241
00:13:03,737 --> 00:13:06,937
Speaker 1: what we saw. And so my argument by no means

242
00:13:06,977 --> 00:13:11,017
Speaker 1: is flawed, especially to the female athletes who see this firsthand.

243
00:13:11,097 --> 00:13:12,977
Speaker 1: Even if they don't agree with me. We could disagree

244
00:13:12,977 --> 00:13:18,737
Speaker 1: on every other issue, with other political issues, especially, but

245
00:13:18,817 --> 00:13:21,057
Speaker 1: they agree on this. And that's something I'm seeing across

246
00:13:21,097 --> 00:13:24,097
Speaker 1: the board is I've had lifelong liberals reach out to

247
00:13:24,137 --> 00:13:26,737
Speaker 1: me and just kind of be appalled that the Democrats

248
00:13:26,737 --> 00:13:30,617
Speaker 1: can't even define what a woman is. They once took

249
00:13:30,817 --> 00:13:33,217
Speaker 1: pride in the fact that they were behind this original

250
00:13:33,297 --> 00:13:36,577
Speaker 1: feminist movement, that it was, of course meant to empower

251
00:13:36,617 --> 00:13:39,257
Speaker 1: and embrace women. And now it seems as if in

252
00:13:39,337 --> 00:13:41,737
Speaker 1: such a short amount of time they've totally turned their

253
00:13:41,777 --> 00:13:44,657
Speaker 1: back on women all together. And I think people are

254
00:13:44,697 --> 00:13:47,657
Speaker 1: starting to realize that and how that's harmful to women

255
00:13:47,697 --> 00:13:48,137
Speaker 1: and girls.

256
00:13:48,497 --> 00:13:50,737
Speaker 2: When did you start? I mean, just because one thing

257
00:13:50,777 --> 00:13:54,257
Speaker 2: that I think is always left out of the discussion

258
00:13:54,337 --> 00:13:57,057
Speaker 2: a little bit on purpose, I think by the left

259
00:13:57,177 --> 00:14:01,497
Speaker 2: is that they'll say this is about courtesy, right, And

260
00:14:01,537 --> 00:14:05,337
Speaker 2: this is why I was actually pretty alone for a

261
00:14:05,377 --> 00:14:07,697
Speaker 2: while there. I mean, there are other guys and gals

262
00:14:07,737 --> 00:14:10,297
Speaker 2: who have been pretty fierce on this, but because I

263
00:14:10,337 --> 00:14:12,457
Speaker 2: was saying this whole use the pronoun that's preferred to

264
00:14:12,457 --> 00:14:14,697
Speaker 2: be nice thing. It's not about being nice guys. This

265
00:14:14,777 --> 00:14:16,537
Speaker 2: is about getting you to be a party to a lie.

266
00:14:16,577 --> 00:14:18,097
Speaker 2: It has nothing to do with oh, this is a

267
00:14:18,177 --> 00:14:21,417
Speaker 2: nice you know, Like I can't disagree with someone who

268
00:14:21,457 --> 00:14:23,457
Speaker 2: wants to change their name or be called by a different,

269
00:14:23,497 --> 00:14:26,817
Speaker 2: you know, human name. So Lea Tom is fine. You know,

270
00:14:27,017 --> 00:14:28,897
Speaker 2: people might yell at me like your middle name is Buck,

271
00:14:28,937 --> 00:14:30,417
Speaker 2: but your first name is James, Why aren't you know

272
00:14:30,537 --> 00:14:32,577
Speaker 2: so fine? You call your name whatever you want. You know,

273
00:14:32,657 --> 00:14:36,457
Speaker 2: people people have all kinds of weird nicknames. But your

274
00:14:36,497 --> 00:14:39,137
Speaker 2: gender is a reality and it is an objective fact,

275
00:14:39,537 --> 00:14:42,497
Speaker 2: and they keep trying to change that. And I sit

276
00:14:42,577 --> 00:14:44,457
Speaker 2: here and I just want people to know. I mean,

277
00:14:44,577 --> 00:14:47,017
Speaker 2: how how many years had you been swimming?

278
00:14:47,097 --> 00:14:47,137
Speaker 1: Like?

279
00:14:47,177 --> 00:14:48,977
Speaker 2: I mean to be at the there's not really like

280
00:14:49,017 --> 00:14:51,177
Speaker 2: I know, there's some maybe, but professional swimming isn't really

281
00:14:51,177 --> 00:14:53,497
Speaker 2: a thing, right. Winning the NCAA Championship is the peak.

282
00:14:53,537 --> 00:14:55,937
Speaker 2: I mean that the Olympics, right, that's about as high

283
00:14:55,977 --> 00:14:57,657
Speaker 2: as the swimming world is going to is going to

284
00:14:57,697 --> 00:15:00,057
Speaker 2: be able to go in terms of competition. When did

285
00:15:00,097 --> 00:15:02,057
Speaker 2: you start? I mean, how many thousands of hours had

286
00:15:02,057 --> 00:15:04,057
Speaker 2: you put into the pool before you were told, yes,

287
00:15:04,057 --> 00:15:04,977
Speaker 2: swim against a dude.

288
00:15:06,577 --> 00:15:08,617
Speaker 1: So I started swiming when I was four years old.

289
00:15:09,497 --> 00:15:12,497
Speaker 1: I twenty two when I actually I was twenty one

290
00:15:12,657 --> 00:15:17,657
Speaker 1: now at the time, twenty two now. So I dedicated

291
00:15:17,737 --> 00:15:20,617
Speaker 1: eighteen years of my life to my sport, which of

292
00:15:20,697 --> 00:15:24,537
Speaker 1: course includes not just your sports specific training, but also

293
00:15:24,617 --> 00:15:28,217
Speaker 1: your weight training, also your diet, your sleep schedule, your

294
00:15:28,257 --> 00:15:32,297
Speaker 1: physical rehabilitation, not to mention the social sacrifices the school

295
00:15:32,297 --> 00:15:34,337
Speaker 1: you have to miss, especially at the collegiate level, when

296
00:15:34,337 --> 00:15:36,737
Speaker 1: you go on these week long trips during finals week

297
00:15:36,817 --> 00:15:40,257
Speaker 1: or whatever. That looks like there's so much that goes

298
00:15:40,297 --> 00:15:44,137
Speaker 1: into it. It's essentially your identity. I put so much

299
00:15:44,137 --> 00:15:45,897
Speaker 1: of my own identity in the fact that I was

300
00:15:45,937 --> 00:15:52,297
Speaker 1: a swimmer. How could you not? Which is it's impossible

301
00:15:52,337 --> 00:15:54,897
Speaker 1: to put into words the amount of time. At the

302
00:15:54,897 --> 00:15:58,737
Speaker 1: collegiate level, you're practicing six hours every single day. Three

303
00:15:58,737 --> 00:16:02,177
Speaker 1: hours before eight am, you practice five to eight, you

304
00:16:02,217 --> 00:16:05,137
Speaker 1: go to class, you'll come back, you practice again from

305
00:16:05,137 --> 00:16:09,057
Speaker 1: one thirty to four thirty, So six hours a day

306
00:16:09,377 --> 00:16:12,577
Speaker 1: each day in the water where you're not breathing, your

307
00:16:12,617 --> 00:16:16,897
Speaker 1: head is down, you're flipping continuously almost probably swim ten

308
00:16:16,937 --> 00:16:20,097
Speaker 1: miles every day, a lot of swimming.

309
00:16:20,497 --> 00:16:22,497
Speaker 2: It's a lot of time, a lot of effort, a

310
00:16:22,537 --> 00:16:25,897
Speaker 2: lot of discipline. And it's remarkable to me that there

311
00:16:25,937 --> 00:16:31,177
Speaker 2: are adults who were involved in this whole process. Who

312
00:16:32,337 --> 00:16:37,217
Speaker 2: decides that Thomas gets to swim in that meet? Like

313
00:16:37,257 --> 00:16:40,497
Speaker 2: how does that process work? Just so I understand, you

314
00:16:40,537 --> 00:16:44,337
Speaker 2: know who deserves the most, you know, the most right

315
00:16:44,697 --> 00:16:47,497
Speaker 2: bile in their direction, like who was the one in

316
00:16:47,617 --> 00:16:48,057
Speaker 2: charge of this.

317
00:16:49,257 --> 00:16:53,057
Speaker 1: Ultimately it was the NCAA. They did not want accountability.

318
00:16:53,097 --> 00:16:56,857
Speaker 1: They were looking for other organizations. They were looking at

319
00:16:56,897 --> 00:16:59,697
Speaker 1: USA Swimming, they were looking at the International Olympic Committee.

320
00:16:59,897 --> 00:17:02,577
Speaker 1: But ultimately the guidelines they had in place, which were

321
00:17:02,617 --> 00:17:06,137
Speaker 1: created in twenty ten, which it was just twelve months

322
00:17:06,137 --> 00:17:09,617
Speaker 1: of hormone suppressant, it was they did not check levels.

323
00:17:09,657 --> 00:17:13,217
Speaker 1: They didn't. I don't believe they made you prove you

324
00:17:13,257 --> 00:17:17,457
Speaker 1: were actually taking these hormone suppressors. It was just supposed

325
00:17:17,497 --> 00:17:21,937
Speaker 1: to be twelve months of HRT, which we know, we

326
00:17:22,057 --> 00:17:25,137
Speaker 1: have the science that tells us. Of course, one year

327
00:17:25,177 --> 00:17:29,137
Speaker 1: of hormone suppression by no means will mitigate male advantage

328
00:17:29,137 --> 00:17:32,017
Speaker 1: and make the testosterone levels even remotely computable to that

329
00:17:32,097 --> 00:17:35,337
Speaker 1: of a male versus a female. Even if it could,

330
00:17:35,537 --> 00:17:38,777
Speaker 1: even if testosterone levels could get down to the same level,

331
00:17:38,777 --> 00:17:41,257
Speaker 1: which they can't because it would be extremely dangerous for

332
00:17:41,297 --> 00:17:44,697
Speaker 1: a male to have testosteron levels that low. There are

333
00:17:44,737 --> 00:17:48,057
Speaker 1: still advantages that will never go away, like heart size,

334
00:17:48,137 --> 00:17:52,497
Speaker 1: lum size, of course, limb size, your height. Even something

335
00:17:52,537 --> 00:17:54,977
Speaker 1: as silly as men on average have a forty percent

336
00:17:55,057 --> 00:17:58,217
Speaker 1: larger throat than women, which plays a huge factor in

337
00:17:58,497 --> 00:18:01,377
Speaker 1: success when you're playing a sport like swimming where you're

338
00:18:01,417 --> 00:18:05,737
Speaker 1: grasping for air. So there's so many little things that,

339
00:18:05,817 --> 00:18:09,097
Speaker 1: of course will never be mitigated, and the nc double

340
00:18:09,137 --> 00:18:12,057
Speaker 1: A is all to blame. There's a lot of different

341
00:18:12,577 --> 00:18:15,857
Speaker 1: ways the finger could point. It could point at state

342
00:18:15,977 --> 00:18:18,817
Speaker 1: legislature in Georgia for not passing some sort of fairness

343
00:18:18,857 --> 00:18:21,777
Speaker 1: in women's sports bill sooner because our meat was at

344
00:18:21,777 --> 00:18:24,337
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. Of course, in the NCAA, it could go

345
00:18:24,377 --> 00:18:25,577
Speaker 1: a lot of different routes.

346
00:18:27,097 --> 00:18:28,937
Speaker 2: Random question. I remember, I feel like I heard this

347
00:18:29,017 --> 00:18:30,897
Speaker 2: when I was back in college, which was a long

348
00:18:30,937 --> 00:18:33,937
Speaker 2: time ago. Riley, do the guys on the swim team

349
00:18:33,977 --> 00:18:35,537
Speaker 2: shave their legs or is that just a rumor?

350
00:18:36,817 --> 00:18:37,977
Speaker 1: No, they definitely do.

351
00:18:38,417 --> 00:18:38,817
Speaker 2: They do.

352
00:18:39,017 --> 00:18:41,537
Speaker 1: They'll shave their legs, they'll shave their arms, they shave

353
00:18:41,657 --> 00:18:44,537
Speaker 1: their chests, their backs, Okay, they shave all their facial

354
00:18:44,577 --> 00:18:44,937
Speaker 1: hair off.

355
00:18:45,217 --> 00:18:48,537
Speaker 2: Because I gotta tell you, they should have gotten themselves

356
00:18:48,617 --> 00:18:53,297
Speaker 2: some one blades. One blade shave phenomenal razors, the best

357
00:18:53,297 --> 00:18:57,017
Speaker 2: you're gonna find anywhere. One blade is so much better

358
00:18:57,057 --> 00:18:58,857
Speaker 2: than the big razor companies out there that say you

359
00:18:58,857 --> 00:19:01,097
Speaker 2: need three, four or five blades. I don't know. You

360
00:19:01,137 --> 00:19:04,577
Speaker 2: just need one super high quality blade for your shaving.

361
00:19:04,617 --> 00:19:08,297
Speaker 2: They'll get closer, more comfortable shave. And whether you're doing

362
00:19:08,297 --> 00:19:10,497
Speaker 2: this because you got to have better error to in

363
00:19:10,537 --> 00:19:13,337
Speaker 2: the pool, or you just want to have that soft,

378
00:19:57,497 --> 00:20:04,337
Speaker 2: at college campuses, and you know it's something that we've

379
00:20:04,337 --> 00:20:06,857
Speaker 2: all now seen. The video where you were mobbed by

380
00:20:06,857 --> 00:20:09,177
Speaker 2: a bunch of lunatics. Just tell us a bit about

381
00:20:09,177 --> 00:20:11,337
Speaker 2: how this all came au like, bring us into the

382
00:20:11,417 --> 00:20:13,857
Speaker 2: day where you're trying to say, hey, guys, I think

383
00:20:13,857 --> 00:20:16,457
Speaker 2: that you're not even anti trans or you know whatever

384
00:20:16,497 --> 00:20:18,137
Speaker 2: that would that would mean in the context of the

385
00:20:18,177 --> 00:20:19,417
Speaker 2: left says that you're just saying, can we just let

386
00:20:19,457 --> 00:20:21,697
Speaker 2: women sports be for women? As somebody who was competing

387
00:20:21,697 --> 00:20:23,097
Speaker 2: as a woman at the highest level of the NC

388
00:20:23,217 --> 00:20:27,937
Speaker 2: double A and woming the NC double A and that's unacceptable,

389
00:20:27,977 --> 00:20:29,457
Speaker 2: and they and they hit you, and they attack you

390
00:20:29,497 --> 00:20:31,657
Speaker 2: and they go crazy. So tell us what, like bring

391
00:20:31,777 --> 00:20:34,057
Speaker 2: us through that day.

392
00:20:34,217 --> 00:20:38,177
Speaker 1: So I was invited to San Francisco State University to

393
00:20:38,217 --> 00:20:42,977
Speaker 1: speak by turning point, I knew, at least I thought

394
00:20:43,017 --> 00:20:45,177
Speaker 1: I knew what I was getting myself into by going

395
00:20:45,177 --> 00:20:48,297
Speaker 1: to San Francisco. Obviously that's a different climate than what

396
00:20:48,337 --> 00:20:52,697
Speaker 1: I'm used to at my home in Tennessee. The demographic

397
00:20:52,777 --> 00:20:55,377
Speaker 1: is different. The I understand. I was speaking at a

398
00:20:55,417 --> 00:20:58,657
Speaker 1: college where this is a school that prides themselves on

399
00:20:58,897 --> 00:21:03,377
Speaker 1: diversity and inclusion and all the things. But that almost

400
00:21:03,417 --> 00:21:06,417
Speaker 1: excites me, not because I want controversy or I want

401
00:21:06,457 --> 00:21:10,057
Speaker 1: to start arguments or I want to be someone who

402
00:21:10,057 --> 00:21:13,377
Speaker 1: who is just doing this for media attention, but because

403
00:21:13,377 --> 00:21:16,217
Speaker 1: I could get myself in front of people who don't

404
00:21:16,217 --> 00:21:19,897
Speaker 1: agree with me. Obviously, this is a different audience than

405
00:21:19,937 --> 00:21:22,697
Speaker 1: going on Fox News or OutKick or whatever that might

406
00:21:22,737 --> 00:21:27,417
Speaker 1: look like. So I was excited for this. I get there,

407
00:21:27,617 --> 00:21:32,097
Speaker 1: I delivered my speech. The room was filled with both

408
00:21:32,137 --> 00:21:34,657
Speaker 1: protesters and supporters. It was about fifty to fifty in

409
00:21:34,697 --> 00:21:38,897
Speaker 1: the room. The protesters. There was of course some heckling

410
00:21:38,977 --> 00:21:42,017
Speaker 1: during the speech, but it was relatively civil. They were

411
00:21:42,017 --> 00:21:43,977
Speaker 1: able to ask questions. At the end. I answered all

412
00:21:44,017 --> 00:21:47,737
Speaker 1: their questions. But it was only after I finished my

413
00:21:47,777 --> 00:21:49,857
Speaker 1: speech in the Q and A when everyone got up

414
00:21:49,897 --> 00:21:53,457
Speaker 1: to leave and a mob of people entered into the

415
00:21:53,457 --> 00:21:56,417
Speaker 1: classroom from the hallway. They turned the lights out, they

416
00:21:56,417 --> 00:22:00,617
Speaker 1: flickered the lights, They rushed to the front of the room.

417
00:22:00,657 --> 00:22:03,457
Speaker 1: An officer who I had no idea an officer was

418
00:22:03,497 --> 00:22:05,737
Speaker 1: in the room. I was supposed to meet with the

419
00:22:05,737 --> 00:22:08,417
Speaker 1: campus police an hour and a half before the event

420
00:22:08,577 --> 00:22:11,177
Speaker 1: to go over kind of a strategy if this were

421
00:22:11,217 --> 00:22:13,977
Speaker 1: to happen, but the police never showed up, so I

422
00:22:13,977 --> 00:22:15,977
Speaker 1: had no idea this was an officer because she was

423
00:22:16,017 --> 00:22:19,657
Speaker 1: an unmarked uniform. She had a mask covering her face,

424
00:22:19,777 --> 00:22:21,337
Speaker 1: nothing indicating she was an officer.

425
00:22:22,577 --> 00:22:24,697
Speaker 2: She was worried about she was worried about COVID. Had

426
00:22:24,737 --> 00:22:26,617
Speaker 2: to make sure she had COVID protection on this officer.

427
00:22:26,897 --> 00:22:29,377
Speaker 2: That's what you want there, exactly. That's really reassuring.

428
00:22:31,257 --> 00:22:33,097
Speaker 1: And so she grabs me and says, come with me,

429
00:22:33,177 --> 00:22:35,737
Speaker 1: I'm with the police, to which I did not believe her.

430
00:22:36,417 --> 00:22:38,457
Speaker 1: I was very reluctant to follow her, but I really

431
00:22:38,537 --> 00:22:40,377
Speaker 1: had no choice. And it was at this point when

432
00:22:41,617 --> 00:22:45,377
Speaker 1: both myself and other Turning Point members were being assaulted.

433
00:22:46,697 --> 00:22:49,057
Speaker 1: But ultimately we were able to leave the room. We

434
00:22:49,217 --> 00:22:51,497
Speaker 1: filtered into the hallway, to which we were only met

435
00:22:51,497 --> 00:22:55,377
Speaker 1: with more protesters filling the stair well. So this was

436
00:22:55,417 --> 00:22:57,097
Speaker 1: on the third floor. There was no way we were

437
00:22:57,097 --> 00:23:01,017
Speaker 1: getting out, and so ultimately that's when we were. We

438
00:23:01,057 --> 00:23:03,777
Speaker 1: had to veer off into another room along that hallway,

439
00:23:03,817 --> 00:23:07,097
Speaker 1: which I was barricaded in for over three hours. In

440
00:23:07,137 --> 00:23:11,217
Speaker 1: these three hours, I missed my flight home. I could hear,

441
00:23:11,537 --> 00:23:17,217
Speaker 1: of course, these protesters yelling awful, terrible, violent, vengeful, hateful

442
00:23:17,297 --> 00:23:21,457
Speaker 1: things at both myself and the officers. They were using

443
00:23:21,577 --> 00:23:25,777
Speaker 1: terminologies such as you know, we fight back, or why

444
00:23:25,777 --> 00:23:27,897
Speaker 1: did you come here, you knew what you were getting

445
00:23:27,897 --> 00:23:30,777
Speaker 1: yourself into. Let her out so we can handle her,

446
00:23:32,657 --> 00:23:35,337
Speaker 1: they kept referring to or they kept telling the officers,

447
00:23:35,337 --> 00:23:38,017
Speaker 1: you know, you're only protecting her because she's white, which

448
00:23:38,057 --> 00:23:43,537
Speaker 1: I think is so silly. Oh my goodness. But there

449
00:23:43,577 --> 00:23:45,177
Speaker 1: was even a point when I was in this room

450
00:23:45,177 --> 00:23:49,217
Speaker 1: when I could hear these protesters negotiating money. They said,

451
00:23:49,257 --> 00:23:51,417
Speaker 1: if I wanted to make it home safely, I had

452
00:23:51,417 --> 00:23:55,177
Speaker 1: to pay them, personally each a certain amount of money.

453
00:23:55,177 --> 00:23:56,817
Speaker 1: If I wanted to make it home. They said, it's

454
00:23:56,817 --> 00:23:58,977
Speaker 1: only fair. You know, if our university's paying you to

455
00:23:59,017 --> 00:24:00,937
Speaker 1: be here, you have to pay us if you want

456
00:24:00,937 --> 00:24:03,777
Speaker 1: to leave, which the university did not pay me to

457
00:24:03,817 --> 00:24:06,657
Speaker 1: be there. But the din of Students was there and

458
00:24:06,697 --> 00:24:10,377
Speaker 1: he was genuinely negotiating with them, and I'm sitting behind

459
00:24:10,377 --> 00:24:12,537
Speaker 1: this door listening. I'm like, oh my gosh, I can't

460
00:24:12,577 --> 00:24:15,697
Speaker 1: believe they're actually negotiating if I get to make it

461
00:24:15,777 --> 00:24:21,737
Speaker 1: home safely. This is so crazy. So it was truly

462
00:24:21,777 --> 00:24:25,937
Speaker 1: it was unnerving, of course, But in those moments, when

463
00:24:26,697 --> 00:24:29,377
Speaker 1: there's fist waving in your face and the officers aren't

464
00:24:29,377 --> 00:24:33,097
Speaker 1: doing anything necessarily to protect you, you almost fear for

465
00:24:33,177 --> 00:24:37,017
Speaker 1: your life. It's like wow, hearing the things they were saying,

466
00:24:37,017 --> 00:24:38,617
Speaker 1: what they wanted to do to me, what they would

467
00:24:38,697 --> 00:24:40,617
Speaker 1: have done to me if we hadn't been separated by

468
00:24:40,617 --> 00:24:41,057
Speaker 1: that door.

469
00:24:43,897 --> 00:24:44,177
Speaker 2: Kill you.

470
00:24:45,297 --> 00:24:49,217
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, they were definitely yelling obscene things again at

471
00:24:49,217 --> 00:24:54,337
Speaker 1: both myself and the officers, which is just it blows

472
00:24:54,377 --> 00:24:57,977
Speaker 1: my mind because after this, the administration released an email.

473
00:24:58,057 --> 00:25:02,337
Speaker 1: They sent an email to their student body saying they

474
00:25:02,337 --> 00:25:06,177
Speaker 1: were so proud of their students for for being so brave,

475
00:25:06,417 --> 00:25:10,777
Speaker 1: so very brave. They applauded their behavior and then continued

476
00:25:10,817 --> 00:25:14,897
Speaker 1: to go on to thank them for protesting so peacefully.

477
00:25:15,537 --> 00:25:17,097
Speaker 1: They know how hard it can be to listen to

478
00:25:17,137 --> 00:25:20,217
Speaker 1: someone who spread so much violence talking about myself.

479
00:25:20,577 --> 00:25:23,337
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're gonna get Obviously, communists loved, loved

480
00:25:23,377 --> 00:25:27,137
Speaker 2: the gaslight. I would want to ask you, though, there

481
00:25:27,217 --> 00:25:30,497
Speaker 2: must have been some like normal guys in the audience

482
00:25:30,497 --> 00:25:32,777
Speaker 2: that did any of them try to intervene and get

483
00:25:32,817 --> 00:25:36,017
Speaker 2: these I mean, I just can't imagine a girl, a

484
00:25:36,057 --> 00:25:39,617
Speaker 2: young woman there alone being threatened by a mob. There's

485
00:25:39,657 --> 00:25:42,337
Speaker 2: a lady police officer there who has a mask on,

486
00:25:42,457 --> 00:25:46,497
Speaker 2: so I'm not, you know, not exactly coming to us

487
00:25:46,497 --> 00:25:48,057
Speaker 2: from Seal Team six, if you know what I mean.

488
00:25:48,097 --> 00:25:50,057
Speaker 2: I mean, you've got to be kidding me. I'm just

489
00:25:50,097 --> 00:25:54,577
Speaker 2: wondering if any of the guys in the room were like, hey,

490
00:25:54,697 --> 00:25:57,137
Speaker 2: you guys, come on, like, knock it off, or do

491
00:25:57,217 --> 00:25:59,217
Speaker 2: they just sit there not say anything.

492
00:26:00,497 --> 00:26:05,737
Speaker 1: Yeah? Really, there wasn't anyone who stepped in, which makes

493
00:26:05,737 --> 00:26:10,337
Speaker 1: you the question, Yeah, are the day of our society?

494
00:26:11,297 --> 00:26:15,097
Speaker 1: There was no one to really kind of step in

495
00:26:15,257 --> 00:26:18,337
Speaker 1: and ensure that these people did it rush to the

496
00:26:18,377 --> 00:26:20,777
Speaker 1: front of the room. Yeah.

497
00:26:20,937 --> 00:26:23,337
Speaker 2: No, sounds like there were, you know, more women in

498
00:26:23,377 --> 00:26:25,177
Speaker 2: that room than just the women. I mean, it sounds

499
00:26:25,217 --> 00:26:27,497
Speaker 2: like there was a lot of cowardice from some of

500
00:26:27,497 --> 00:26:31,097
Speaker 2: the men who should have understood that when a woman

501
00:26:31,217 --> 00:26:34,977
Speaker 2: is physically under threat, they should step forward and do

502
00:26:35,057 --> 00:26:38,057
Speaker 2: something about this. Were there male police officers present?

503
00:26:40,217 --> 00:26:43,737
Speaker 1: There were eventually, to my knowledge, I don't believe there

504
00:26:43,777 --> 00:26:46,137
Speaker 1: were any in the room when this happened. I was

505
00:26:46,217 --> 00:26:50,457
Speaker 1: very quickly in the hallway and met with male police officers.

506
00:26:50,817 --> 00:26:54,377
Speaker 1: But even the male police officers didn't step up at

507
00:26:54,377 --> 00:26:56,777
Speaker 1: that time and do anything.

508
00:26:57,657 --> 00:27:00,057
Speaker 2: No, No, hey, I'm gonna pepper spray you guys. Let's

509
00:27:00,097 --> 00:27:02,297
Speaker 2: you back off. Nothing right, just sitting there like letting this,

510
00:27:03,017 --> 00:27:06,337
Speaker 2: letting the Marxist terrorists do their thing. I mean, it's

511
00:27:06,697 --> 00:27:08,657
Speaker 2: so abominable. I mean that they and by someone did

512
00:27:08,737 --> 00:27:11,497
Speaker 2: hit you, right, I mean someone actually physically assaulted you,

513
00:27:11,657 --> 00:27:12,017
Speaker 2: if I.

514
00:27:11,977 --> 00:27:15,897
Speaker 1: Recall, Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're I'm in the process of

515
00:27:16,097 --> 00:27:19,257
Speaker 1: litigation and a police investigation, and so there's a lot

516
00:27:19,297 --> 00:27:21,377
Speaker 1: of stuff that they have kind of advised me not

517
00:27:21,537 --> 00:27:22,697
Speaker 1: to get.

518
00:27:22,497 --> 00:27:25,017
Speaker 2: Into specifics about. Sure, I understand that, but I mean,

519
00:27:25,097 --> 00:27:26,937
Speaker 2: if you were assaulted, you can say you were assaulted

520
00:27:26,977 --> 00:27:30,017
Speaker 2: obviously because the litigation will at least, you know, go

521
00:27:30,057 --> 00:27:32,257
Speaker 2: on the record with an assault. So there was a

522
00:27:32,297 --> 00:27:35,497
Speaker 2: physical assault against you. No one from the university reached

523
00:27:35,497 --> 00:27:38,617
Speaker 2: out to apologize, I assume or to you know, they

524
00:27:38,697 --> 00:27:40,097
Speaker 2: just don't care. Is that where this is?

525
00:27:41,337 --> 00:27:44,937
Speaker 1: Right? Yeah? They have not by no means have they

526
00:27:44,937 --> 00:27:47,617
Speaker 1: condemned violence. By no means. Have they apologized to me.

527
00:27:47,777 --> 00:27:51,297
Speaker 1: By no means have they said anywhere that we uphold

528
00:27:51,337 --> 00:27:53,257
Speaker 1: the freedom of speech. No, none of that.

529
00:27:53,777 --> 00:27:55,137
Speaker 2: I want I want to ask you, what, Okay, so

530
00:27:55,337 --> 00:27:58,817
Speaker 2: a total debacle. The college should be absolutely or university

531
00:27:58,817 --> 00:28:01,097
Speaker 2: should be absolutely ashamed of itself. The people in that

532
00:28:01,177 --> 00:28:03,537
Speaker 2: room all look like true psychopaths who are in need

533
00:28:03,577 --> 00:28:09,537
Speaker 2: of deep, deep counseling and probably prayer. But we'll come

534
00:28:09,577 --> 00:28:10,857
Speaker 2: back to this as I want to ask what it's

535
00:28:10,857 --> 00:28:12,417
Speaker 2: like on some of the other campuses, and just also

560
00:29:21,017 --> 00:29:23,617
Speaker 2: speaking at some other campuses. I assume that they're not

561
00:29:23,737 --> 00:29:28,417
Speaker 2: all just completely overrun with left wing brainwash psychopaths. So

562

Speaker 2: what do you are you having a lot of young women,

563
00:29:31,097 --> 00:29:32,937

564
00:29:33,177 --> 00:29:35,577
Speaker 2: I like to play women's lacrosse, and I don't want

565
00:29:35,617 --> 00:29:37,697
Speaker 2: some guy tad to say he's Tina who weighs two

566
00:29:37,777 --> 00:29:39,737
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty pounds and like lay out all the

567
00:29:39,777 --> 00:29:41,177
Speaker 2: women on the field with his stick.

568
00:29:42,577 --> 00:29:47,857
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I am. I have had an influx of people,

569
00:29:48,417 --> 00:29:51,897
Speaker 1: especially females, even a lot of female athletes. I just

570
00:29:51,937 --> 00:29:54,017
Speaker 1: spook at Clemson where there was a lot of female

571
00:29:54,017 --> 00:29:57,097
Speaker 1: athletes in the room who were so curious about what

572
00:29:57,217 --> 00:29:59,817
Speaker 1: to do, how to have this conversation with their teams.

573
00:30:00,337 --> 00:30:01,937
Speaker 1: I just spoke at the University of Toledo and I

574
00:30:01,977 --> 00:30:04,337
Speaker 1: had a girl who came who spoke up actually on

575
00:30:04,377 --> 00:30:07,897
Speaker 1: the microphone on the question and answer your portion, and

576
00:30:07,977 --> 00:30:10,017
Speaker 1: she said, you know, I swam for the University of

577
00:30:10,457 --> 00:30:13,337
Speaker 1: and I also competed against Lea Thomas. And she confirmed,

578
00:30:13,417 --> 00:30:16,177
Speaker 1: of course everything that I was saying and shared her

579
00:30:16,177 --> 00:30:18,657
Speaker 1: perspective on how this has affected her and her teammates.

580
00:30:19,537 --> 00:30:22,257
Speaker 1: But that's that's a common theme. I'm seeing so many

581
00:30:23,297 --> 00:30:26,737
Speaker 1: females interested in this and intrigued and wanting to stick

582
00:30:26,817 --> 00:30:29,377
Speaker 1: up for themselves, but just not sure how to without

583
00:30:29,857 --> 00:30:34,337
Speaker 1: ruffling feathers or stepping on toes, which is inevitable at

584
00:30:34,337 --> 00:30:35,177
Speaker 1: this point.

585
00:30:35,737 --> 00:30:40,337
Speaker 2: Have any female athletes come to you and tried to

586
00:30:40,417 --> 00:30:43,177
Speaker 2: tell you that you just got to let this go.

587
00:30:43,377 --> 00:30:46,177
Speaker 2: The transagenda is too important. Like has that happened?

588
00:30:47,817 --> 00:30:50,177
Speaker 1: There has been some There have been some people who

589
00:30:50,217 --> 00:30:52,737
Speaker 1: are claiming, you know, I'm just doing this for fifteen

590
00:30:52,737 --> 00:30:55,577
Speaker 1: minutes of fame. I'm just doing this to get clicks

591
00:30:55,577 --> 00:30:58,577
Speaker 1: and likes. I know Representative Katie Porter the other day

592
00:30:58,617 --> 00:31:02,377
Speaker 1: when she was on with Peters Morgan and Bill maher Or,

593
00:31:02,417 --> 00:31:06,097
Speaker 1: she said that I was just doing this for my

594
00:31:06,177 --> 00:31:10,337
Speaker 1: own personal gain, which is so silly. This is not

595
00:31:10,377 --> 00:31:13,417
Speaker 1: about me By no means. Is this something that I'm trying

596
00:31:13,457 --> 00:31:16,617
Speaker 1: to advance myself personally for any ulterior motives, because again,

597
00:31:17,137 --> 00:31:20,537
Speaker 1: this was not my life goal to be in this

598
00:31:20,657 --> 00:31:23,617
Speaker 1: sphere by no means, and as the days go on,

599
00:31:23,697 --> 00:31:28,337
Speaker 1: I'm realizing it's really not my life goal. So there

600
00:31:28,377 --> 00:31:32,097
Speaker 1: have been people who don't believe my intentions are truly there.

601
00:31:32,097 --> 00:31:33,977
Speaker 2: But I'm curious. I mean, for forget about this. So

602
00:31:34,017 --> 00:31:36,817
Speaker 2: going after your intentions, by the way, that is that

603
00:31:36,937 --> 00:31:40,177
Speaker 2: is calming nonsense, right, That's that's ad hominem attack, that's

604
00:31:40,217 --> 00:31:44,257
Speaker 2: not actually engaging. I'm wondering if any you know, woman

605
00:31:44,297 --> 00:31:48,377
Speaker 2: who has competed, either currently or recently at any level

606
00:31:48,417 --> 00:31:50,697
Speaker 2: the NC double A is coming up to you and

607
00:31:51,297 --> 00:31:54,377
Speaker 2: earnestly telling you not because they're putting it about to

608
00:31:54,377 --> 00:31:56,577
Speaker 2: put it on their TikTok channel, but just wants to say,

609
00:31:56,857 --> 00:31:58,337
Speaker 2: you know, I really think that we should have guys

610
00:31:58,377 --> 00:32:01,817
Speaker 2: competing against us because they don't have an advantage, because

611
00:32:01,817 --> 00:32:04,977
Speaker 2: that's the media narrative, as you well know, is that

612
00:32:04,977 --> 00:32:07,777
Speaker 2: that they're just they're saying the most obvious lies. I'm

613
00:32:07,777 --> 00:32:09,897
Speaker 2: wondering if anyone presents you with the lie or if

614
00:32:09,897 --> 00:32:12,217
Speaker 2: they just attack you you know, they're.

615
00:32:12,057 --> 00:32:16,257
Speaker 1: They're just that's not happening. That's not happening by any means,

616
00:32:17,577 --> 00:32:20,577
Speaker 1: at any level, grassroot level and through. There's no one

617
00:32:20,577 --> 00:32:23,897
Speaker 1: who's coming directly to me and saying men have no

618
00:32:23,977 --> 00:32:27,977
Speaker 1: advantage testosterone suppression. For a year, it clears men of

619
00:32:28,017 --> 00:32:30,097
Speaker 1: all of the advantages. No, that's not happening.

620
00:32:31,137 --> 00:32:33,257
Speaker 2: So so it's fascinating, isn't it, Because you're you're out

621
00:32:33,297 --> 00:32:36,097
Speaker 2: there making an argument, and what you're establishing here is

622
00:32:36,137 --> 00:32:40,217
Speaker 2: that nobody will actually meet you on the plane of

623
00:32:40,257 --> 00:32:43,657
Speaker 2: this argument and make the case that you're wrong. They

624
00:32:43,777 --> 00:32:47,257
Speaker 2: just say it's just slogans and name calling and shouting.

625
00:32:48,457 --> 00:32:53,857
Speaker 2: Have you have you ever read Uh, there's a French author,

626
00:32:53,857 --> 00:32:56,377
Speaker 2: philosopher Gustav Lebon. You know what I'm talking about here.

627
00:32:56,417 --> 00:32:59,057
Speaker 2: He wrote a book called The Crowd about that. It's

628
00:32:59,057 --> 00:33:01,777
Speaker 2: effectively about how crowd. I think you would, especially what

629
00:33:01,817 --> 00:33:04,697
Speaker 2: you've been through. It's it's not it's pretty short accessible.

630
00:33:04,737 --> 00:33:06,257
Speaker 2: It's not like I'm you know, saying, go read this

631
00:33:06,297 --> 00:33:09,097
Speaker 2: thousand george book written by an old French guy. You

632
00:33:09,177 --> 00:33:10,857
Speaker 2: might you know this is I think he wrote it

633
00:33:11,137 --> 00:33:13,937
Speaker 2: nineteenth century, but you might find it really interesting. Raley

634
00:33:14,017 --> 00:33:17,417
Speaker 2: just because that. Yeah, Well, because it's all about when

635
00:33:17,457 --> 00:33:18,857
Speaker 2: you get people into a mob, what do they do.

636
00:33:18,897 --> 00:33:21,657
Speaker 2: They shout, they shout, they're angry, there's rape, they don't think,

637
00:33:22,497 --> 00:33:26,417
Speaker 2: they don't actually stop and process. It's all about the emotion,

638
00:33:26,657 --> 00:33:33,457
Speaker 2: the energy, and the psychological sublimation, if you will, or

639
00:33:33,577 --> 00:33:39,937
Speaker 2: the psychological submission to the collective the mob, and that's

640
00:33:39,977 --> 00:33:40,897
Speaker 2: what you're up against.

641
00:33:42,137 --> 00:33:46,417
Speaker 1: And truthfully, in my experience at San Francisco, San Francisco,

642
00:33:46,457 --> 00:33:49,217
Speaker 1: that was made evident to me when they were trying

643
00:33:49,217 --> 00:33:50,937
Speaker 1: to say I had to pay them if I wanted

644
00:33:50,977 --> 00:33:54,297
Speaker 1: to leave. I'm sitting there thinking, you don't really care

645
00:33:54,337 --> 00:33:57,137
Speaker 1: about what I'm here to talk about. You don't care

646
00:33:57,217 --> 00:34:01,897
Speaker 1: about what you're protesting, you don't even know what you're protesting.

647
00:34:03,017 --> 00:34:06,577
Speaker 1: You just want to gain something from this, If that

648
00:34:06,657 --> 00:34:11,617
Speaker 1: makes sense. It's just wild. It's totally a mom and

649
00:34:11,657 --> 00:34:13,657
Speaker 1: I would be very interested in reading that book.

650
00:34:14,577 --> 00:34:16,737
Speaker 2: I mean, I also it's amazing. You know, I think

651
00:34:16,737 --> 00:34:20,737
Speaker 2: you probably saw, you know, Rapino, the female soccer player

652
00:34:20,777 --> 00:34:23,337
Speaker 2: if the US national team came out recently, and like

653
00:34:23,337 --> 00:34:24,657
Speaker 2: I hate to break it to her, like I was

654
00:34:24,697 --> 00:34:27,977
Speaker 2: like a like a third tier men's high school soccer player.

655
00:34:28,017 --> 00:34:31,817
Speaker 2: I would throw her around a soccer field still, even

656
00:34:31,857 --> 00:34:34,017
Speaker 2: though I'm even though I'm a desk guy sitting behind

657
00:34:34,057 --> 00:34:37,497
Speaker 2: a microphone, like it's ridiculous, But she's like, oh god,

658
00:34:37,577 --> 00:34:40,137
Speaker 2: this is great. Like men don't have an advantage. You know,

659
00:34:40,217 --> 00:34:43,057
Speaker 2: weekend warriors with beer guts who played some high school

660
00:34:43,097 --> 00:34:48,257
Speaker 2: athletics would beat, would beat professional women's soccer. This is like,

661
00:34:48,737 --> 00:34:51,137
Speaker 2: this isn't you know, swimming a little bit different just

662
00:34:51,177 --> 00:34:53,257
Speaker 2: because you know, the guys actually have to be pretty decent.

663
00:34:53,257 --> 00:34:55,777
Speaker 2: It's swimming, but you can kind of muscle women around

664
00:34:55,777 --> 00:34:57,457
Speaker 2: in some of these other sports. It's just crazy to me,

665
00:34:57,537 --> 00:34:59,577
Speaker 2: like she's obviously doing it for the money, but no

666
00:34:59,577 --> 00:35:01,457
Speaker 2: one actually attacks her for that, right, No one ever

667
00:35:01,497 --> 00:35:03,577
Speaker 2: says Megan Rapino just wants to be relevant, so she

668
00:35:03,617 --> 00:35:04,977
Speaker 2: says things she knows are untrue.

669
00:35:06,057 --> 00:35:08,977
Speaker 1: Right, right, And it's important to mention that she's done playing.

670
00:35:09,417 --> 00:35:12,737
Speaker 1: If you've ever s see Megan Rapina play, you know

671
00:35:12,857 --> 00:35:16,097
Speaker 1: she's an aggressive player. You know that she would probably

672
00:35:16,497 --> 00:35:18,897
Speaker 1: if a male took her spot. And this is I've

673
00:35:18,897 --> 00:35:21,937
Speaker 1: had conversations with people who know her at the Olympic Committee,

674
00:35:22,577 --> 00:35:25,737
Speaker 1: some of her personal friends even, who have said if

675
00:35:25,737 --> 00:35:28,857
Speaker 1: someone threatened her spot on that national team, it would

676
00:35:28,857 --> 00:35:32,897
Speaker 1: be game over for them, which is interesting and I

677
00:35:33,017 --> 00:35:35,217
Speaker 1: one to also mentioned she doesn't have a daughter, she

678
00:35:35,257 --> 00:35:39,297
Speaker 1: doesn't have anyone to defend. Therefore, for her, she would

679
00:35:39,377 --> 00:35:41,697
Speaker 1: rather virtue signals. She would rather be seen as someone

680
00:35:41,697 --> 00:35:44,817
Speaker 1: who's kind, which is ironic because she fought for women's

681
00:35:45,217 --> 00:35:49,097
Speaker 1: equal pay, equal access, equal resources when it comes to sports,

682
00:35:49,497 --> 00:35:51,777
Speaker 1: and now she's doing the exact opposite by fighting for

683
00:35:51,857 --> 00:35:52,617
Speaker 1: male inclusion.

684
00:35:52,777 --> 00:35:55,177
Speaker 2: We'll come back here in just a second, because you guys,

685
00:35:55,217 --> 00:35:56,577
Speaker 2: you got to have life insurance. You know, I just

686
00:35:56,617 --> 00:35:58,777
Speaker 2: got married a few months ago, and it is absolutely

687
00:35:58,817 --> 00:36:02,457
Speaker 2: critical because the right insurance playing gives you peace of

688
00:36:02,457 --> 00:36:04,617
Speaker 2: mind if something were to happen to you. You know

689
00:36:04,697 --> 00:36:07,017
Speaker 2: your family has that safety net to cover mortgage payments,

690
00:36:07,057 --> 00:36:09,377
Speaker 2: college costs, other expenses you've been providing for. This is

691
00:36:09,417 --> 00:36:11,937
Speaker 2: just a must do. You've got to have not just

692
00:36:12,057 --> 00:36:15,257
Speaker 2: a policy, but a policy that has enough, or rather

693
00:36:15,337 --> 00:36:19,377
Speaker 2: an additional policy possibly so policy genius is what you

00:37:08,777 --> 00:37:08,897
Speaker 1: Well.

712
00:37:08,937 --> 00:37:11,137
Speaker 2: I think it's so because she's actually doing what people

713
00:37:11,137 --> 00:37:13,697
Speaker 2: accuse you of, which is making a case she doesn't

714
00:37:13,777 --> 00:37:17,217
Speaker 2: believe in order to benefit herself. And that is quite obvious.

715
00:37:17,617 --> 00:37:19,137
Speaker 2: And I also think one of the reasons why you

716
00:37:19,217 --> 00:37:21,617
Speaker 2: are so compelling. You know, I can go out there,

717
00:37:21,697 --> 00:37:24,337
Speaker 2: and you know Matt Walsh, who's great on on these

718
00:37:24,337 --> 00:37:27,137
Speaker 2: issues in his documentary obviously was really eye opening for

719
00:37:27,217 --> 00:37:30,017
Speaker 2: people can go out there, but we're guys, right, we're

720
00:37:30,017 --> 00:37:32,097
Speaker 2: normal guys. We haven't thrown our hair out and say that.

721
00:37:32,137 --> 00:37:33,937
Speaker 2: You know, my name is not actually Susan now and

722
00:37:33,977 --> 00:37:35,577
Speaker 2: you have to call me a woman. Right, we're guys.

723
00:37:36,017 --> 00:37:38,177
Speaker 2: And they also say, why do you you've probably come

724
00:37:38,217 --> 00:37:40,777
Speaker 2: across or you know you've seen this argument. Why do

725
00:37:40,817 --> 00:37:42,777
Speaker 2: you make such a big deal of this? They always say,

726
00:37:42,857 --> 00:37:44,297
Speaker 2: why do you make such a big deal of this?

727
00:37:44,577 --> 00:37:47,457
Speaker 2: It's not happening that often. Why are you so focused

728
00:37:47,497 --> 00:37:49,657
Speaker 2: on this? This is all gaslighting that the commedies do.

729
00:37:50,817 --> 00:37:54,337
Speaker 2: But you have actually suffered injury, right, Like if this

730
00:37:54,617 --> 00:37:57,057
Speaker 2: was a court of law, they'd say, well, what are

731
00:37:57,057 --> 00:38:00,217
Speaker 2: the damages. The damage is that you had a gold

732
00:38:00,417 --> 00:38:03,257
Speaker 2: ncaa metal stolen from you by somebody who has a

733
00:38:03,257 --> 00:38:07,737
Speaker 2: psychiatric disorder. That's the dam There's real damage here, right.

734
00:38:08,177 --> 00:38:12,177
Speaker 1: And I could list sample after hundreds of examples truthfully

735
00:38:12,217 --> 00:38:14,497
Speaker 1: off the top of my head of women losing out

736
00:38:14,537 --> 00:38:18,017
Speaker 1: on opportunities. So to sit there and believe the lies,

737
00:38:18,177 --> 00:38:21,777
Speaker 1: the narrative that it's not happening. They're just saying that

738
00:38:21,817 --> 00:38:25,217
Speaker 1: because they don't think women are worthy of protection, worthy

739
00:38:25,257 --> 00:38:29,097
Speaker 1: of fair opportunities. We're not worthy of safety in our sports,

740
00:38:29,817 --> 00:38:34,817
Speaker 1: privacy in our locker rooms. It's listening, especially with the

741
00:38:34,897 --> 00:38:39,017
Speaker 1: US House of Representatives last week, not one Democrat voted

742
00:38:39,057 --> 00:38:42,617
Speaker 1: in favor of protecting women and girls in sports. But

743
00:38:42,817 --> 00:38:47,297
Speaker 1: listening to their arguments their opposition to the bill, it

744
00:38:47,337 --> 00:38:50,097
Speaker 1: was mind blowing the amount of lies that I heard,

745
00:38:50,657 --> 00:38:52,297
Speaker 1: The amount of people who said, this is a bill

746
00:38:52,337 --> 00:38:55,497
Speaker 1: that bans trans athletes from competing, This is a bill

747
00:38:55,617 --> 00:39:00,697
Speaker 1: that would force trans youth to undergo extensive, invasive medical

748
00:39:00,737 --> 00:39:05,817
Speaker 1: examinations where their genitals are checked. These are lies and

749
00:39:05,897 --> 00:39:09,097
Speaker 1: they're getting away with lying. And the general public might

750
00:39:09,137 --> 00:39:12,657
Speaker 1: not understand the extent of the bill and what it

751
00:39:12,737 --> 00:39:16,737
Speaker 1: really means. But these Democrats that are lying straight through

752
00:39:16,777 --> 00:39:17,377
Speaker 1: their mouths.

753
00:39:18,217 --> 00:39:20,377
Speaker 2: Riley Gains, I want you to tell everybody what are

754
00:39:20,417 --> 00:39:24,017
Speaker 2: you planning more speeches? What's next for you? And how

755
00:39:24,017 --> 00:39:27,137

756
00:39:27,257 --> 00:39:28,297
Speaker 2: your your messages.

757
00:39:29,537 --> 00:39:32,777
Speaker 1: Absolutely what's next for me is I'm going to continue

758
00:39:32,977 --> 00:39:35,577
Speaker 1: at both the state and federal level, fighting for this,

759
00:39:35,777 --> 00:39:39,017
Speaker 1: fighting to protect women and girls of all ages at

760
00:39:39,017 --> 00:39:42,217
Speaker 1: the state level, and fighting to uphold Title MIND at

761
00:39:42,217 --> 00:39:45,297
Speaker 1: the federal level. And I'm going to continue speaking to colleges,

762
00:39:45,937 --> 00:39:51,017
Speaker 1: engaging the younger generation my generation, and encouraging people to

763
00:39:51,057 --> 00:39:56,017
Speaker 1: come into conversation with open minds and open and be

764
00:39:56,097 --> 00:39:58,617
Speaker 1: willing to have their eyes opened in mind to change.

765
00:39:59,657 --> 00:40:01,377
Speaker 1: So that's kind of what's next for me. Where you

766
00:40:01,377 --> 00:40:04,857
Speaker 1: can follow me is on Twitter at Riley Underscore gains Underscore.

767
00:40:06,497 --> 00:40:08,817
Speaker 1: There are two underscores because my first Twitter was in

768
00:40:08,857 --> 00:40:12,777
Speaker 1: fact deleted. But I try to post breaking stories of

769
00:40:12,817 --> 00:40:17,457
Speaker 1: this happening, highlighting politicians who are reacting to this in

770
00:40:17,497 --> 00:40:18,857
Speaker 1: both good and bad ways.

771
00:40:19,297 --> 00:40:21,297
Speaker 2: Have you been banned from it Instagram? By the way,

772

Speaker 2: for I just got hit for something COVID COVID related

773
00:40:24,137 --> 00:40:25,737
Speaker 2: a week ago on Instagram by guys.

774
00:40:25,977 --> 00:40:29,057
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my gosh. No, my Instagram is intact, but

775
00:40:30,457 --> 00:40:32,577
Speaker 1: I try to keep Instagram more more.

776
00:40:33,017 --> 00:40:36,137
Speaker 2: Not not for politics. I'm just wondering because Facebook, Facebook,

777
00:40:36,137 --> 00:40:38,697
Speaker 2: and and instagramm are are on some of these issues whole.

778
00:40:38,697 --> 00:40:41,017
Speaker 2: I mean, Twitter obviously is good now because of Elan,

779
00:40:41,057 --> 00:40:43,257
Speaker 2: but they they're horrible on those things. Can I ask

780
00:40:43,257 --> 00:40:44,937
Speaker 2: you a random question before we let you we let

781
00:40:44,977 --> 00:40:47,257
Speaker 2: you sign off. This is just a general h Jenner

782
00:40:47,257 --> 00:40:49,697
Speaker 2: information for the audience. You might have seen I don't

783
00:40:49,697 --> 00:40:51,657
Speaker 2: know if you've seen this, and don't tell anybody, but

784
00:40:51,697 --> 00:40:53,857
Speaker 2: occasionally I look at TikTok. I'm not supposed to be

785
00:40:54,017 --> 00:40:56,177
Speaker 2: I'm a conservative, but TikTok can be kind of engaging.

786
00:40:56,217 --> 00:40:57,977
Speaker 2: I've learned how to cook really good stakes Like there's

787
00:40:58,017 --> 00:41:01,777
Speaker 2: some good stuff on there totally and there's a uh,

788
00:41:01,817 --> 00:41:04,057
Speaker 2: there's this debate that I've seen a few times between

789
00:41:04,057 --> 00:41:06,577
Speaker 2: people who are like, oh, like, I'm just a swimmer,

790
00:41:06,617 --> 00:41:08,537
Speaker 2: and so now I've gotten like in such good shape

791
00:41:08,537 --> 00:41:11,497
Speaker 2: from swimming, and then all the so like that guy

792
00:41:11,737 --> 00:41:14,097
Speaker 2: or gal doesn't look like that just from swimming. That's

793
00:41:14,137 --> 00:41:17,537
Speaker 2: the weight room plus swimming. If someone told you they

794
00:41:17,577 --> 00:41:20,817
Speaker 2: wanted to get into like phenomenal shait lose weight, change

795
00:41:20,857 --> 00:41:24,217
Speaker 2: body mass, and get really strong, and they were just

796
00:41:24,337 --> 00:41:26,217
Speaker 2: going to be in a pool, not going to do

797
00:41:26,297 --> 00:41:28,977
Speaker 2: any weights, is it possible or is that is that

798
00:41:29,017 --> 00:41:29,737
Speaker 2: wishful thinking?

799
00:41:30,857 --> 00:41:34,617
Speaker 1: No, it's totally possible. Oh, I will say I will

800
00:41:34,617 --> 00:41:37,817
Speaker 1: say that in my experience in college, we lift weights,

801
00:41:37,817 --> 00:41:41,457
Speaker 1: but it's it's not anything heavy. We don't require heavy

802
00:41:41,497 --> 00:41:45,097
Speaker 1: lifting in our sport, right And I even still to

803
00:41:45,177 --> 00:41:47,897
Speaker 1: this day have like a six pack of abs that

804
00:41:48,017 --> 00:41:52,417
Speaker 1: just won't seem to go away. So it's definitely from swimming. Yeah,

805
00:41:52,457 --> 00:41:55,617
Speaker 1: for sure. I think it's a way where it's obviously

806
00:41:55,657 --> 00:41:57,297
Speaker 1: a lot of cardios, so you're not going to get

807
00:41:57,297 --> 00:41:59,897
Speaker 1: super bulky, but it's definitely a way to lean up

808
00:41:59,937 --> 00:42:01,297
Speaker 1: and gain some muscle mass.

809
00:42:01,697 --> 00:42:04,457
Speaker 2: I will like discreetly weigh in with some of the

810
00:42:04,497 --> 00:42:06,977
Speaker 2: TikTok bros and be like I was told by somebody

811
00:42:06,977 --> 00:42:09,537
Speaker 2: who would know that, ye, swimming is enough. You don't

812
00:42:09,577 --> 00:42:11,897
Speaker 2: actually have to be deadlifting and swimming if you want

813
00:42:11,897 --> 00:42:14,617
Speaker 2: to if you want to lean out. So good to know, Riley. Thanks,

814
00:42:14,657 --> 00:42:16,777
