- 0:05Speaker 2: This is the Reader Penalty Show.
- 0:09Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Reader Panety Show.
- 0:12Speaker 4: Coming up tonight, the Liberal Party considers gender quoters as
- 0:16Speaker 4: part of its plan to bring back voters. My panel
- 0:19Speaker 4: would join me to discuss that and the day's other
- 0:22Speaker 4: top headlines. John Heinderraker will have the latest from the US,
- 0:26Speaker 4: including JD Vance's bombshell interview with Joe Rogan, Meagan Markle
- 0:31Speaker 4: humiliated on Prince Harry's trip to the UK.
- 0:34Speaker 3: Kinsey Schofield will have all the Royland.
- 0:37Speaker 4: Entertainment news later in the hour, and we have a
- 0:40Speaker 4: bumper edition of Lefties Losing It featuring Hollywood actor Elliott
- 0:45Speaker 4: Page formerly Ellen Page claiming that biological realities are just
- 0:50Speaker 4: quaint little.
- 0:51Speaker 5: Myths in terms of looking at nature as if it's
- 0:54Speaker 5: some sort of hetero patriarchal structure is absurd, and that
- 0:58Speaker 5: this gender binary that we've created as nothing but a
- 1:04Speaker 5: quaint little mess.
- 1:05Speaker 4: But first, the Liberal Party will consider gender quotas as
- 1:09Speaker 4: part of its plan to bring back voters. They really
- 1:12Speaker 4: are in a death spiral if they think that is
- 1:15Speaker 4: the answer. The gender quota option was laid out in
- 1:18Speaker 4: a discussion paper from an internal commission established by former
- 1:22Speaker 4: leader Susan Lee. The paper worn the parliamentary wing of
- 1:26Speaker 4: the party was no longer representative of the average Australian.
- 1:30Speaker 4: It proposed a number of remedies, including gender quotas, saying
- 1:35Speaker 4: it is increasingly clear that if serious progress is to
- 1:38Speaker 4: be made in delivering greater gender balance in our parliamentary team,
- 1:42Speaker 4: additional measures will be required. None of them would be
- 1:47Speaker 4: easy or without complication or resistance from some However, if
- 1:51Speaker 4: you want a different outcome, we need to be prepared
- 1:54Speaker 4: to do things differently. Let's bring in the panel. Joining
- 1:58Speaker 4: me now is former Liberal Nicole Flint and Sky News
- 2:01Speaker 4: contributor Louise Roberts. Nicole, gender quotas the answer to the
- 2:07Speaker 4: Liberal parties woes.
- 2:10Speaker 6: They are not the answer rita. They never have been,
- 2:13Speaker 6: and in my opinion, they never will be. Now full disclosure,
- 2:16Speaker 6: I'm a member of this commission and believe me, I
- 2:19Speaker 6: will be fighting to the death to make sure that
- 2:22Speaker 6: we do not introduce quotas. I think something like over
- 2:26Speaker 6: twelve years ago I authored the first Gender and Politics
- 2:30Speaker 6: Report for the Liberal Party with Nick Cater and we
- 2:33Speaker 6: pointed out that targets are helpful, but quotas would be
- 2:37Speaker 6: undermining every single principle that the Liberal Party believes in.
- 2:42Speaker 6: So I just I'm a little bit perplexed and frustrated
- 2:46Speaker 6: that we're floating this again because the way that we
- 2:50Speaker 6: have always won elections and we have had more or
- 2:55Speaker 6: less women as candidates. You know, we've had good representation
- 2:58Speaker 6: of women in the House of Reps in particular, and
- 3:01Speaker 6: then we've had less women. What it gets back to
- 3:03Speaker 6: is good policy. This is not about men or women.
- 3:07Speaker 6: This is about presenting compelling policy to the Australian people
- 3:12Speaker 6: that solves the issues that they are facing. That's when
- 3:16Speaker 6: we're at our best, and that's what we've been missing
- 3:19Speaker 6: for I'm going to say.
- 3:21Speaker 3: About a decade.
- 3:22Speaker 6: So I hope that that's what we will be focusing on,
- 3:26Speaker 6: not another distraction, which is do we need quotas to
- 3:31Speaker 6: have more women. Trying to outlabor labor or out green
- 3:34Speaker 6: the Greens or the Teals is never the answer, and
- 3:39Speaker 6: just focusing on women is precisely what that does.
- 3:44Speaker 4: Yes, lurching to the left has got us one nation
- 3:47Speaker 4: leading the polls, so if the Liberal Party won more
- 3:50Speaker 4: of that, then by all means please embrace gender quotas.
- 3:53Speaker 4: But Louise, why stop at gender quotas the Liberal Party?
- 3:58Speaker 3: In fact, all political.
- 3:59Speaker 4: Parties are un representative on a number of fronts Souchi, economic, racial, religious.
- 4:05Speaker 3: Are we going to have ethnic quotas next?
- 4:08Speaker 4: Why is there no proposal to have equal representation when
- 4:11Speaker 4: it comes to ethnicity.
- 4:13Speaker 7: I think you've hit the nail and head their reta.
- 4:15Speaker 7: Maybe that is the next thing coming down the line.
- 4:17Speaker 8: But quote is to Nicole's point.
- 4:19Speaker 7: I mean this whole quota boomerang that keeps coming around.
- 4:21Speaker 7: I mean it's also so patronizing as a female voter
- 4:24Speaker 7: that they think that we're going to vote for a
- 4:26Speaker 7: woman because she's a woman, and not actually look at
- 4:29Speaker 7: what she stands for or her merit.
- 4:31Speaker 8: I don't care if the MP is a man or
- 4:34Speaker 8: a woman.
- 4:34Speaker 7: I want to know what they stand for and how
- 4:36Speaker 7: they're going to improve our life as Australians. So and
- 4:39Speaker 7: I think also the Libs are asking the wrong question.
- 4:41Speaker 7: It's not that we want more women in Parliament. We
- 4:43Speaker 7: don't actually know what the Libs stand for. So what's
- 4:46Speaker 7: their actual policy for growing Australia and protecting us as
- 4:50Speaker 7: a nation?
- 4:51Speaker 8: And we still don't really know that.
- 4:52Speaker 7: So that's what they should be targeting, rather than saying, Hey,
- 4:55Speaker 7: we're going to jam more women into the system and
- 4:57Speaker 7: that's going to make everything perfect.
- 5:01Speaker 3: Now let's go to.
- 5:01Speaker 4: Victoria, where a convicted murderer has been accessing taxpayer funded
- 5:07Speaker 4: ozepic jabs and plastic surgery while in prison for murder.
- 5:12Speaker 3: For murder, The.
- 5:13Speaker 4: Herald Sun reports that Alicia Schiller, who is serving a
- 5:16Speaker 4: sixteen year sentence for stabbing to death mother of three
- 5:20Speaker 4: Terrell Eveston mosst the murderer, is understood to be receiving
- 5:24Speaker 4: costly weight loss injections as you also underwent eyelid surgery.
- 5:28Speaker 4: I think it's called an upper eyepleft if I'm not mistaken.
- 5:31Speaker 4: All the rage with influences of the moment, Nicole, I mean,
- 5:35Speaker 4: this is like something from the Babylon b I can't
- 5:40Speaker 4: believe this is real, but we're are talking about Victoria.
- 5:43Speaker 4: Prison sources have told the Herald's son that the killers
- 5:47Speaker 4: cell was like a candy shop due to all the lollies, chips,
- 5:51Speaker 4: chocolates and soft drinks. I mean, why worry about diet
- 5:54Speaker 4: when taxpayers are funding your zenpik and plastic surgery procedures.
- 6:00Speaker 6: Well, it's just another example of our culture of no consequences.
- 6:04Speaker 6: You can murder somebody, get just sixteen years for the
- 6:09Speaker 6: most heinous of crimes, go to prison and have all
- 6:13Speaker 6: you can eat food, by the sound of things, especially
- 6:16Speaker 6: all the bad stuff, and then get the taxpayers to
- 6:19Speaker 6: underwrite euro zebic jabs and your plastic surgery. Now, I
- 6:24Speaker 6: also understand this woman had previously attempted to access IVF
- 6:28Speaker 6: so she could have a baby in prison. I mean, Rita,
- 6:31Speaker 6: we know Victoria is completely out of control. You know,
- 6:34Speaker 6: if it's not this, it's transgender women in women's prisons.
- 6:38Speaker 6: The economy is completely stuffed. If the Victorian people do
- 6:42Speaker 6: not sort this out, I will be astounded and very disappointed.
- 6:47Speaker 8: But just the mind boggles.
- 6:50Speaker 6: I just have no words for the fact that we
- 6:53Speaker 6: are allowing tax payers money to fund this sort of
- 7:00Speaker 6: medical intervention for someone who is a convicted murderer.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Meanwhile, Luise, you've got law abiding citizens who are grappling
- 7:09Speaker 4: with a really dysfunctional health system.
- 7:13Speaker 3: Waiting lists have blown up.
- 7:15Speaker 4: This state is in a peril when it comes to
- 7:18Speaker 4: the debt crisis, and it shows. It shows in the
- 7:21Speaker 4: health system. I could just imagine if you're waiting on
- 7:26Speaker 4: if you're in a waiting list for some essential surgery
- 7:31Speaker 4: and you read this, what you must be thinking, Well.
- 7:33Speaker 8: It's another example broadly as well.
- 7:36Speaker 7: Isn't it reata of the rights, so called rights of
- 7:38Speaker 7: offenders bring prioritize over victims and ordinary citizens who aren't
- 7:42Speaker 7: at their committing crimes and thinking, oh great, I'll go
- 7:44Speaker 7: to prison and get a facelift on the taxpayer dime.
- 7:47Speaker 7: It's yeah, if you're on a hospital waiting list, if
- 7:49Speaker 7: you've abandoned your private health insurance, because that's all been
- 7:53Speaker 7: increased as well in the new financial year, you will
- 7:56Speaker 7: be looking this thinking why is this money going to
- 7:59Speaker 7: someone who murdered someone when I can't afford to get
- 8:03Speaker 7: surgery which may extend my life, or my wife can't
- 8:06Speaker 7: afford to get anee replacement or something like that. It's
- 8:08Speaker 7: just it's a tale of two cultures, the offenders who
- 8:12Speaker 7: must be prioritized and the victims who are ignored.
- 8:16Speaker 4: Now let's look at the impact some of the policies
- 8:19Speaker 4: in Victoria having on real estate investment. New data from
- 8:23Speaker 4: the Australian Tax Office shows foreign investors are walking away
- 8:27Speaker 4: from Victoria. On July one, twenty twenty five, there were
- 8:32Speaker 4: sixteen thousand residential properties sixteen four hundred residential properties owned
- 8:37Speaker 4: by international investors across the state, compared to around seventeen
- 8:41Speaker 4: thousand the previous year. The reduction coincides with implementation of
- 8:46Speaker 4: increased land tax for homes not own as a primary residence,
- 8:50Speaker 4: which came into effect in Victoria in twenty twenty four. Louise,
- 8:54Speaker 4: not only are we seeing no growth in investment, the
- 8:57Speaker 4: numbers are going backwards. Some people might be happy with this,
- 9:01Speaker 4: but it's not good for renterers.
- 9:03Speaker 8: It's not good for renas because the mats is pretty basic.
- 9:05Speaker 7: Unless I'm totally wrong here, reader that if you punish
- 9:08Speaker 7: investors and foreign investors obviously thinking we'll hang on there's
- 9:12Speaker 7: too many taxes going on here and the government flip
- 9:14Speaker 7: flops on what they're actually trying to do, then I'll
- 9:17Speaker 7: park my money elsewhere. I'll go to New Zealand or
- 9:19Speaker 7: Singapore or America or something like that. Why pour it
- 9:21Speaker 7: into Victoria. But it's not the government that creates these
- 9:25Speaker 7: investment properties. It's private investors buying flats, you know, for
- 9:28Speaker 7: their retirement. Or we used to be able to do
- 9:31Speaker 7: that with they're getting smashed on capital gains and negative
- 9:33Speaker 7: gearing being blown up. So if they're not doing that,
- 9:37Speaker 7: there's less properties to rent, therefore the rents are higher.
- 9:40Speaker 8: The mats is pretty basic.
- 9:41Speaker 7: But you've got the government, particularly the Prime Minister Anthony Albertezi,
- 9:45Speaker 7: saying it'll be fine, the system will correct itself. Well
- 9:48Speaker 7: it won't because you've got people who young people who
- 9:50Speaker 7: are trying to say for a deposit, but probably opening
- 9:53Speaker 7: an email at the same time which says, hey, your
- 9:55Speaker 7: rent's going up by fifty dollars next week or maybe
- 9:57Speaker 7: another one hundred dollars next week as well. So they're
- 10:00Speaker 7: in an impossible position after being told by the federal
- 10:03Speaker 7: government that we're here for you, we're going to help
- 10:06Speaker 7: you get a foot on the property ladder. It's absolutely rubbish.
- 10:10Speaker 3: It is rubbish and nicole.
- 10:12Speaker 4: It's also evident with local investors in this state.
- 10:16Speaker 3: Local landlords are selling up big.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Time due to the hikes in land tax and a
- 10:22Speaker 4: raft of frankly absurd tendency regulations that make being a
- 10:26Speaker 4: landlord really just a poor investment decision for many people.
- 10:32Speaker 4: And again that's bad for rents because the rental pool
- 10:35Speaker 4: is diminishing, which means rents are going to skyrocket, and
- 10:39Speaker 4: how are people going to save, as Loy said, for
- 10:41Speaker 4: a deposit if your rents are skyrocketing.
- 10:45Speaker 6: Well, precisely, and we know I think in Sydney the
- 10:47Speaker 6: reports have been rents have gone up between fifty and
- 10:50Speaker 6: one hundred and seventy five dollars a week. I don't
- 10:53Speaker 6: understand how people are still affording this because people's salaries
- 10:57Speaker 6: are not going up. So we know history tells us
- 11:01Speaker 6: and the experience in other company in other countries. Sorry,
- 11:04Speaker 6: as soon as you mess with negative gearing and capital
- 11:07Speaker 6: gains tax, the property market collapses, rents go up and
- 11:11Speaker 6: you have the perverse outcome and then you have to
- 11:13Speaker 6: reverse all of the changes. So this is already happening
- 11:16Speaker 6: here in Australia. When a labor going to wake up
- 11:20Speaker 6: and reverse their appalling budget decisions for the sake of
- 11:26Speaker 6: people trying to get into the property market and for
- 11:29Speaker 6: our property investors. And at the same time the labor
- 11:33Speaker 6: cannot control their spending, so the Reserve Bank continued to
- 11:37Speaker 6: put interest rates up. We've got sky high fuel prices,
- 11:40Speaker 6: sky high grocery prices, sky high energy prices. The pressure
- 11:46Speaker 6: on Australians right now is almost unprecedented, well not since
- 11:50Speaker 6: Jim Chalmer's political idol, Paul Keating was lasting government. When
- 11:55Speaker 6: a labor going to fix the mess that they have
- 11:58Speaker 6: made for the sake of Australian people.
- 12:02Speaker 4: Well they will argue that Treasury says rents are only
- 12:06Speaker 4: going to go up two dollars nicole. And as you
- 12:08Speaker 4: mentioned that data out of Sydney is showing that is
- 12:12Speaker 4: not the case. And I think we're going to see
- 12:14Speaker 4: similar data across the country with rents going up at
- 12:18Speaker 4: a time where people can ill afford any extra expense.
- 12:22Speaker 4: People are already hurting.
- 12:25Speaker 6: Precisely so, and people's salaries are not going up, and
- 12:29Speaker 6: the private sector is having to compete with the federal
- 12:32Speaker 6: and state governments, but particularly the federal government who keep
- 12:35Speaker 6: putting more and more bureaucrats on the payroll, which again
- 12:38Speaker 6: the Australian taxpayers are paying for, so the private sector
- 12:41Speaker 6: can't compete. There is this is the bizarre nature of
- 12:46Speaker 6: the economy at the moment. You know, there is still
- 12:48Speaker 6: a skill shortage and a crisis in so many industries
- 12:51Speaker 6: because the federal government can't stop spending and can't stop
- 12:54Speaker 6: employing people. The NDIS, for example, is sucking so many
- 12:57Speaker 6: people from other industries. It is a complete mess. It
- 13:01Speaker 6: is of Labour's own making, and they continue to refuse
- 13:05Speaker 6: to do anything about it.
- 13:08Speaker 4: Nicole Flint, Louise Roberts, thank you so much for your
- 13:10Speaker 4: time tonight.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Now it's time for lefties losing it.
- 13:15Speaker 4: Let's start with the chancellor at the University of California,
- 13:19Speaker 4: San Francisco, doctor Sam Hagwood, who seems to think men
- 13:24Speaker 4: can get pregnant.
- 13:26Speaker 1: Titled Framework for Gender and Sex Concepts in Teaching, advises
- 13:31Speaker 1: against using the term pregnant women. Instead, it says to
- 13:35Speaker 1: use pregnant people who are pregnant people compared to pregnant
- 13:40Speaker 1: women just curious.
- 13:42Speaker 9: So that is part of a curriculum to help our
- 13:45Speaker 9: students who are facing a wide diversity of patients. Of course,
- 13:50Speaker 9: the vast majority of pregnancies are in women, and I
- 13:54Speaker 9: have absolutely no problem with using the word pregnant women.
- 13:57Speaker 10: I use it.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Myself as a non biological woman ever had a baby?
- 14:03Speaker 9: A transgender person care.
- 14:05Speaker 1: That's not a biological woman. Has a non biological woman
- 14:09Speaker 1: ever had a baby?
- 14:10Speaker 11: I would know iterateiculous.
- 14:13Speaker 9: We take care of transgender doctor.
- 14:15Speaker 4: Oh dear God, a doctor who doesn't seem to understand
- 14:19Speaker 4: what a biological woman is. And I did to take
- 14:22Speaker 4: an Australian accent there, so I'd like to apologize on
- 14:26Speaker 4: behalf of Australia for for that. Now here are some
- 14:29Speaker 4: Brits singing a little educational ditty. Perhaps the good doctor
- 14:33Speaker 4: could listen in. They sing, if you're born with a willie,
- 14:37Speaker 4: You're a man, Your man.
- 14:49Speaker 12: Now.
- 14:49Speaker 4: It seems director Christopher Nolan is determined to outwoke the
- 14:53Speaker 4: rest of Hollywood. We just have a look at the
- 14:55Speaker 4: cast of his latest blockbuster, The Odyssey.
- 14:58Speaker 3: And let's hear from the star of that.
- 15:00Speaker 4: Film, Elliot Page formerly Ellen Page, who now identifies as
- 15:05Speaker 4: male and has been cast as a fearsome Greek soldier.
- 15:09Speaker 3: Naturally, here Page.
- 15:10Speaker 4: Goes on a wild, fact free, frankly demented rant about
- 15:15Speaker 4: sis heteropatriarchal.
- 15:17Speaker 5: Structures in terms of looking at nature as if it's
- 15:21Speaker 5: some sort of heteropatriarchal structure is absurd, and that this
- 15:25Speaker 5: you know, gender binary that we've created is nothing but
- 15:30Speaker 5: a quaint little myth. What we have been taught in
- 15:33Speaker 5: school in regards to these structures. Men being superior, women
- 15:38Speaker 5: being inferior, you know, submissive, or what have you.
- 15:43Speaker 1: It?
- 15:43Speaker 5: Being this Yes, heterosexual existence is just completely false.
- 15:50Speaker 4: And Page also claims that those who question transactivism must
- 15:55Speaker 4: be vile characters who are profoundly uncomfortable with themselves try.
- 16:00Speaker 5: And block out the noise from you know, absolute vile
- 16:06Speaker 5: losers who must just be so profoundly uncomfortable with themselves
- 16:10Speaker 5: they can't handle that someone could get to a place
- 16:15Speaker 5: that I think you know that you know, trans people
- 16:21Speaker 5: do get to, which is a level of self acceptance.
- 16:25Speaker 4: The irony is rich with that one incredible stuff, and
- 16:28Speaker 4: the poor thing always looks so miserable.
- 16:31Speaker 3: Now.
- 16:31Speaker 4: Also starring this film is John Legozamo. Let's hear from
- 16:35Speaker 4: There's trump deranged lefty who tells us that Hollywood, far
- 16:39Speaker 4: from being a bastion of equaligy and inclusion, is.
- 16:42Speaker 3: Actually a deeply bigoted place.
- 16:44Speaker 2: What's been your odyssey in terms of fighting for your
- 16:46Speaker 2: identity or your Hollywood career?
- 16:48Speaker 12: Well, you know, it's always been a battle. I mean,
- 16:50Speaker 12: you know, Hollywood is not the most accepting place. Even
- 16:54Speaker 12: though we Latin people are thirty to forty percent of
- 16:57Speaker 12: the box office and a third of streamers. We're still
- 16:59Speaker 12: not represented with the most underrepresented, aggressively underrepresented group in America.
- 17:04Speaker 12: So that's been my artistic to try to bring some
- 17:08Speaker 12: parody to the Democrats.
- 17:10Speaker 4: Now Here is Senator Eliza Slotkin saying the quiet part
- 17:14Speaker 4: out loud. She says Democrats cannot win elections if water
- 17:18Speaker 4: id laws are introduced.
- 17:20Speaker 3: It's pretty much what she says.
- 17:21Speaker 13: The other thing that we bloked yesterday was the Save
- 17:23Speaker 13: Act right, which.
- 17:26Speaker 14: Allow this administration to rig our democracy so that it
- 17:30Speaker 14: would be hard for any Democrat and any.
- 17:32Speaker 13: State to win any election.
- 17:34Speaker 4: Yep, that's the Democrats admitting they rely on voter fraud
- 17:38Speaker 4: to win elections. Here is a California Governor Gavin Newsom
- 17:43Speaker 4: again attacking Elon Musk.
- 17:46Speaker 3: He feels betrayed.
- 17:47Speaker 4: Because Elon fled dysfunctional California for thriving Texas MS.
- 17:54Speaker 15: One of the great disappointments, one of the great innovators
- 17:58Speaker 15: of our time. I brought up Edison. He's had us
- 18:01Speaker 15: in our time. It breaks my heart. I was the first,
- 18:03Speaker 15: you know, got one of the first tesla's off the line.
- 18:05Speaker 15: I've been one of their biggest proponents, supporters. Was regulation
- 18:09Speaker 15: in California. That created the conditions that allowed him to
- 18:12Speaker 15: take the risk to become the multi billionaire maybe trillionaire
- 18:16Speaker 15: that he's become, including Solar City and some of the
- 18:19Speaker 15: regulatory frameworks that launched Elon Musk, and he launched this space.
- 18:25Speaker 15: Now he's going to space, and he's now turning his back.
- 18:29Speaker 15: Not only in the state they promote him to Florida.
- 18:32Speaker 4: Now and here is congressional candidate and former US Marine
- 18:36Speaker 4: William Upham recording a video of himself in full uniform
- 18:40Speaker 4: mind you, calling Donald Trump the Antichrist and declaring the
- 18:44Speaker 4: president must be killed.
- 18:46Speaker 10: I've come to the realization that our country is broken.
- 18:52Speaker 10: We are led by a president who's the enemy of God,
- 18:56Speaker 10: and President Trump will never bring us together like God intended.
- 19:01Speaker 10: We are at war with evil.
- 19:04Speaker 4: I hope the FBI is keeping an eye on that
- 19:07Speaker 4: character who was medically discharged last year. I'd be far
- 19:11Speaker 4: more comfortable if he was in a facility with padded
- 19:14Speaker 4: cells and talking about pat of cells. This is another
- 19:17Speaker 4: feral lefty celebrating the death of a mild mannered Republican
- 19:22Speaker 4: senator from the great state of South Carolina. If they
- 19:25Speaker 4: hate Lindsey Graham this much, imagine how they feel about
- 19:29Speaker 4: Staunche conservatives.
- 19:30Speaker 16: He was a piece of And you know what, today's
- 19:34Speaker 16: a good morning because that mother is dead. South Carolina
- 19:38Speaker 16: should be rejoicing because ding Dong the witch is dead.
- 19:43Speaker 16: Somebody dropped a house on that her.
- 19:46Speaker 3: She's a dead.
- 19:48Speaker 16: I hate white men who are such biggots and pieces
- 19:52Speaker 16: of shit. He did not do a service to this country.
- 19:55Speaker 16: Don't listen to Fox News or whatever crap you watch.
- 19:58Speaker 16: It's I'm glad he's said you should be too.
- 20:03Speaker 4: To a woman now who does not like confidence. Here
- 20:06Speaker 4: is Michelle Obama talking about what a remarkable orator she is.
- 20:11Speaker 3: Just ask her.
- 20:11Speaker 14: I'm given impassionate speeches. I think people know now that
- 20:15Speaker 14: I can give a speech. Okay, that wasn't just that
- 20:20Speaker 14: didn't just start happening, you know I was. I was
- 20:24Speaker 14: always really good.
- 20:25Speaker 8: On the campaign trail.
- 20:27Speaker 3: I was always a powerful orator.
- 20:29Speaker 4: Let's check now on the state of comedy. What passes
- 20:33Speaker 4: for comedy amongst the left. This suppose a comic was
- 20:36Speaker 4: featured by taxpayer funded BBC. Get a needle and thread
- 20:41Speaker 4: because you may have to stitch up your size when
- 20:43Speaker 4: she's done.
- 20:44Speaker 17: This was a law introduced by the Conservative government to
- 20:48Speaker 17: stop schools talking about my finality or promoting because you know,
- 20:55Speaker 17: if you talk about it, you will become one.
- 21:02Speaker 8: That is a fact.
- 21:03Speaker 17: And I think a lot of you are thinking, she
- 21:04Speaker 17: looks like a lot of fun.
- 21:05Speaker 13: I'm ready to join the club.
- 21:07Speaker 4: No, I don't think you look like a lot of fun.
- 21:10Speaker 4: You are about as funny as a migraine. There is
- 21:12Speaker 4: no comedy here. It's a woke lecture that's seeking applause
- 21:17Speaker 4: from fellow lefties.
- 21:19Speaker 3: No laughs here.
- 21:20Speaker 17: I feel very lucky that my children are growing up
- 21:22Speaker 17: in a more tolerant society. But I don't think that's enough.
- 21:25Speaker 17: I don't want to be tolerated. I want to be accepted, okay,
- 21:28Speaker 17: and so do any gay, lesbian, bisexual, well trans people.
- 21:32Speaker 17: That's all we want is acceptance, Okay.
- 21:38Speaker 13: I think there's a way of doing that.
- 21:40Speaker 8: And it's a common.
- 21:45Speaker 3: Welcome back.
- 21:46Speaker 4: Now Here is a reality check for the bubble dwelling left,
- 21:50Speaker 4: a brutal reality check. There are trans people who decided
- 21:53Speaker 4: to flee Trump's America despite the fact that they are
- 21:56Speaker 4: perfectly safe and protected, and they went.
- 21:59Speaker 3: To the Netherlands. Some of these folk to seek asylum.
- 22:03Speaker 4: Now they were put into a refugee cab with genuine refugees,
- 22:07Speaker 4: many of whom, according to The Guardian, here I have
- 22:10Speaker 4: dreams of.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Ending up in America.
- 22:12Speaker 4: They're wondering why these confused clowns have left America to
- 22:16Speaker 4: be confined to an asylum center in a small Dutch town.
- 22:20Speaker 3: Let's hear from one of.
- 22:22Speaker 4: These trans folk who is deeply regretting the hair brain
- 22:26Speaker 4: decision to leave America, because you see, this asylum center
- 22:30Speaker 4: also has many Islamists who want to bash or even
- 22:33Speaker 4: kill trans people.
- 22:35Speaker 2: Between here and there is a bunch of Algerians and
- 22:37Speaker 2: Moroccans or whoever who think that queer people should be beaten.
- 22:39Speaker 2: They think that this system where you have people just
- 22:42Speaker 2: living out here that are unhappy, is not good.
- 22:45Speaker 13: Do you think it's safe here?
- 22:47Speaker 2: No?
- 22:47Speaker 3: I don't, that's you.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Oh it's scary. It's legitimately scary. I decided that my
- 22:54Speaker 2: mental health is degrading so substantially being here that I
- 22:58Speaker 2: just need to get out. And the situation they have
- 22:59Speaker 2: in us as a transperson not good. Right, but here
- 23:04Speaker 2: I will be heard or killed.
- 23:05Speaker 4: How desperately ignorant of the world do you have to
- 23:08Speaker 4: be to think there are loads of countries around the
- 23:11Speaker 4: world more tolerant of trans lifestyles than America. Had this
- 23:15Speaker 4: cloud heard of San Francisco or Seattle, could have moved there.
- 23:20Speaker 4: Let's bring in the Center for the American Experiment, president
- 23:23Speaker 4: and co founder of the popular power Line blog, John Heindereicher.
- 23:28Speaker 3: John, the profound ignorance.
- 23:31Speaker 4: Of the world from these activists never fails to astound.
- 23:36Speaker 11: Really, it's like the Gays for a Palestine organization. These
- 23:40Speaker 11: people apparently don't follow the news. You know, when movie
- 23:44Speaker 11: stars say they're going to leave America for political reasons,
- 23:47Speaker 11: it's stupid, but it doesn't probably cause any harm. But
- 23:50Speaker 11: this is really sad. You know, what is the Trump
- 23:52Speaker 11: administration done? They said men shouldn't play in women's sports, right,
- 23:57Speaker 11: That hardly makes it dangerous to be a trans person
- 24:02Speaker 11: in America, But left wing propaganda can make people crazy.
- 24:08Speaker 4: Absolutely. Now let's talk about Vice President JD. Vans's bombshell
- 24:12Speaker 4: interview with Joe Rogan, where he spoke about some in
- 24:16Speaker 4: the Israeli government who are working hard to derail peace
- 24:20Speaker 4: negotiations with Iran, and he says they want to keep
- 24:24Speaker 4: the wall going indefinitely.
- 24:26Speaker 18: I definitely think you have seen this very discreete extremely
- 24:30Speaker 18: well funded campaign to try to derail the negotiation and
- 24:35Speaker 18: try to derail the deal. And you know there was
- 24:38Speaker 18: again there's this time article that came out yesterday. A
- 24:40Speaker 18: friend send it to me. It's like worth reading because
- 24:44Speaker 18: it lists a bunch of people who have quite literally
- 24:47Speaker 18: been paid by a former Trump campaign person who was
- 24:52Speaker 18: himself paid by certain elements within the Israeli government. And
- 24:57Speaker 18: those people are attacking me viciously for quite literally trying
- 25:01Speaker 18: to accomplish the negotiation objective that the President's set for
- 25:04Speaker 18: the country.
- 25:05Speaker 5: So what is their position, like, are they're attacking you how.
- 25:08Speaker 18: Oh, it's social media posts. It's either they're leaking to reporters.
- 25:12Speaker 18: They're attacking me obsessively saying that we should not be
- 25:16Speaker 18: negotiating with Iran. We should just keep the military campaign
- 25:20Speaker 18: going indefinitely, and that is their explicit position, and coming
- 25:24Speaker 18: after me saying that, you know, people have come out
- 25:26Speaker 18: for me and say that I'm influenced by Qatar, that
- 25:29Speaker 18: I'm influenced by foreign governments, that you know, I take
- 25:32Speaker 18: my marching orders from Tucker Carlson, And there's just so
- 25:36Speaker 18: much bullshit out there when what I'm actually trying to
- 25:38Speaker 18: do is accomplish what the President of the United States
- 25:41Speaker 18: told me to accomplish, which is a settlement of this
- 25:45Speaker 18: that accomplishes our objectives. When I open up the pages
- 25:47Speaker 18: of Time magazine and I see that there's a literal
- 25:50Speaker 18: foreign influence campaign being funded to tank the very deal
- 25:54Speaker 18: that I was pursuing, and oh, by the way, many
- 25:57Speaker 18: of the people who were receiving that money were actually
- 26:00Speaker 18: attacking me in completely dishonest ways. You know. My response
- 26:03Speaker 18: to that is, well, go to hell. I'm gonna do
- 26:05Speaker 18: what I have to do for the American people. I
- 26:07Speaker 18: represent Americans first.
- 26:09Speaker 4: John has always I'd urge everyone to watch the full
- 26:12Speaker 4: interview or listen to the full interview.
- 26:15Speaker 3: What's your assessment of what you've heard.
- 26:18Speaker 11: Well, first of all, Rita, there is no one saying
- 26:20Speaker 11: that the military conflict with Iran should go on indefinitely.
- 26:24Speaker 11: That is a strong man. What a lot of people
- 26:26Speaker 11: are saying is what I have said, That is that
- 26:29Speaker 11: a deal with the IRGC is probably pointless and we
- 26:33Speaker 11: should accomplish our military objectives and go home.
- 26:37Speaker 18: Now.
- 26:37Speaker 11: Vance has got to understand that the whole idea of
- 26:41Speaker 11: a deal with Iran is very controversial people disagree strongly.
- 26:46Speaker 11: He should know that, and I personally have not seen
- 26:49Speaker 11: any evidence of the kind of influence campaign that Vance
- 26:54Speaker 11: is talking about here. He is clearly less friendly to
- 26:58Speaker 11: Israel than others in the administration, including President Trump. But
- 27:02Speaker 11: this seems to me to be really a little bit
- 27:05Speaker 11: over the top.
- 27:07Speaker 4: But would he be making these statements if he didn't
- 27:11Speaker 4: have the backing of President Trump. I can't imagine the
- 27:14Speaker 4: Vice president would be going on Joe Rogan and saying
- 27:18Speaker 4: things that would shock or displease the President.
- 27:22Speaker 11: I don't know, Arita. I mean, I feel like Trump
- 27:24Speaker 11: has kind of put Vance out there. You know, he's
- 27:27Speaker 11: out on a limb trying to negotiate some kind of
- 27:30Speaker 11: meaningful deal with the Iranians, and I feel like Trump
- 27:34Speaker 11: has kind of put him out there to give himself
- 27:36Speaker 11: a little bit of distance in case the whole effort fails,
- 27:39Speaker 11: as it very possibly may. So I think it's very
- 27:42Speaker 11: hard to tell to what extent to hear Vance is
- 27:46Speaker 11: actually speaking for President Trump. Mark or Rubia, for example,
- 27:50Speaker 11: would never say the things that Vance said today.
- 27:54Speaker 4: No, very different individuals, and as we've discussed in the past,
- 27:58Speaker 4: is going to be absolutely fascinated to see who prevails,
- 28:02Speaker 4: because those two are the two front runners to be
- 28:04Speaker 4: the next presidential candidate for the GOP. Now, he also
- 28:09Speaker 4: spoke about the Epstein files. Obviously, the Joe Rogan audience
- 28:13Speaker 4: has a great deal of interest in that issue, and
- 28:16Speaker 4: he admitted that the Trump administration botched the release of
- 28:20Speaker 4: the Epstein files.
- 28:21Speaker 18: If people want to say we mishandled the Epstein release, guilty,
- 28:25Speaker 18: we did miss especially the communications of it.
- 28:27Speaker 19: What do you think should have been done.
- 28:29Speaker 18: I think that we should have just dropped everything at
- 28:31Speaker 18: the very beginning, and like, obviously it takes a little
- 28:34Speaker 18: time to review the stuff, to find the stuff, to
- 28:36Speaker 18: redact things where you have victims and so forth, but
- 28:38Speaker 18: we should have just done it as quickly as possible.
- 28:41Speaker 3: John.
- 28:41Speaker 4: That was a massive own goal for the Trump administration.
- 28:45Speaker 4: It was their first huge mistake in my view. It
- 28:50Speaker 4: allowed this deeply dishonest narrative to take hold that Donald
- 28:54Speaker 4: Trump himself was in the Epstein files, that it was
- 28:57Speaker 4: being protected by Epstein, or he was protecting Stain when
- 29:01Speaker 4: the files actually revealed the opposite. But the mishandling of
- 29:06Speaker 4: the release really allowed those narratives to flourish.
- 29:11Speaker 11: Well. That was unfortunate. As you know, reader, Epstein hated
- 29:14Speaker 11: Donald Trump. He was obsessed with this hatred her drunk.
- 29:18Speaker 11: It's kind of ironic. Epstein was a Democrat, his friends
- 29:21Speaker 11: are almost all Democrats. But you know, the whole Jeffrey
- 29:24Speaker 11: Epstein thing is massively, massively overrated, and Vance is falling
- 29:29Speaker 11: into that trap here. I mean the idea that Epstein
- 29:32Speaker 11: was running some kind of an international blackmail ring. There
- 29:36Speaker 11: is no evidence for that, the idea that he was
- 29:39Speaker 11: connected deeply connected to the CIA or whoever. Again, there's
- 29:43Speaker 11: no evidence whatsoever of that he was a bad guy,
- 29:47Speaker 11: but he was not that important. And again, I hate
- 29:50Speaker 11: to see someone like JD. Vance falling into this trap
- 29:53Speaker 11: of treating Jeffrey Epstein like he's this really significant individual
- 29:58Speaker 11: he wasn't.
- 30:00Speaker 4: Well, that's President Trump's view, but I've got to say
- 30:03Speaker 4: I disagree with that. The way Jeffrey Epstein seemed to
- 30:06Speaker 4: operate to me suggests and the fact that they've been
- 30:11Speaker 4: hesitant to release the files and they're almost bullied into
- 30:16Speaker 4: doing it again lends weight to this theory that he
- 30:20Speaker 4: did have links with intelligence agencies. Dat events to talk
- 30:26Speaker 4: about that, and he claimed that Jeffrey Epstein had connections
- 30:30Speaker 4: to the highest levels of Israeli intelligence.
- 30:34Speaker 18: He clearly had connections to the upper the highest levels
- 30:39Speaker 18: of American intelligence. He clearly had connections to the highest
- 30:42Speaker 18: levels of Israeli intelligence. In fact, one of the interesting stories,
- 30:46Speaker 18: one of the interesting things the Epstein saga reveals about.
- 30:49Speaker 18: And I try to make this point one of the
- 30:51Speaker 18: reason why I'm always careful, and I said, there are
- 30:54Speaker 18: some elements within the Israeli government who don't like our
- 30:58Speaker 18: peace process, because there are a lot of elements within
- 30:59Speaker 18: the Israeli government that actually do like our peace process.
- 31:02Speaker 18: They recognize that this indefinite campaign is not good for
- 31:05Speaker 18: them either. And the Epstein thing is interesting because as
- 31:09Speaker 18: much as I know, you know Prime Minister natywho not
- 31:13Speaker 18: a particularly popular person in the United States of America
- 31:17Speaker 18: right now, Epstein seemed to be connected to the elements
- 31:22Speaker 18: of the Israeli deep state that were left of center.
- 31:24Speaker 18: Like I've always found that fascinating. It wasn't like he
- 31:28Speaker 18: was super connected to the right of center of Israeli politics.
- 31:33Speaker 4: John of course we know Jeffrey Epstein's links with form
- 31:37Speaker 4: of Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, who is from the left.
- 31:42Speaker 4: He has since apologized for associating with Jeffrey Epstein.
- 31:46Speaker 3: But what did you make of what you've just heard there?
- 31:49Speaker 11: Well, again, Rita, I'm not aware of any evidence that
- 31:52Speaker 11: Epstein had any significant relationship with any senior person in
- 31:57Speaker 11: Israel intelligence or otherwise. Except for that former liberal prime
- 32:01Speaker 11: minister and Vance's assurance that he had contacts, you know,
- 32:05Speaker 11: deep in American intelligence, there's no evidence for that. That
- 32:08Speaker 11: claim was falsely made at one point and then debunked.
- 32:12Speaker 11: If Vance has got any evidence of such intelligence connections,
- 32:15Speaker 11: I'd like to see it, because there certainly is no
- 32:17Speaker 11: such evidence in the public domain.
- 32:22Speaker 4: And lastly, from this interview, the discussion about California Governor
- 32:26Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom had me laughing at Lad because it's one
- 32:30Speaker 4: hundred percent truth.
- 32:31Speaker 18: Like, you know, Gavin Newsom did this speech a few
- 32:33Speaker 18: months ago the President. I think it's the funniest thing
- 32:35Speaker 18: ever because he's like speaking to a group of black
- 32:39Speaker 18: leaders and black businessmen, but it's like an audience that
- 32:42Speaker 18: is ninety five percent black, and they're asking him about
- 32:45Speaker 18: his dyslexia and his struggle with education, and he basically says, yeah,
- 32:49Speaker 18: you know, I'm not very smart, Like a lot of you,
- 32:52Speaker 18: and it's like you, I'm like, read me what.
- 32:55Speaker 11: There's a ton of interviews where he's talking about all
- 32:58Speaker 11: the books he reads like he's so.
- 33:00Speaker 18: Shy, he's full of shit, but it's it's admirably full
- 33:04Speaker 18: of shit.
- 33:04Speaker 10: But it's it's I.
- 33:06Speaker 20: Admire the.
- 33:09Speaker 11: Sheer tenacity that he has and being full of shit.
- 33:13Speaker 3: It's amazing. It really is amazing, John, he did just that.
- 33:17Speaker 4: I think we discussed it at the time he claimed
- 33:20Speaker 4: he couldn't read in front of a mainly black audience,
- 33:23Speaker 4: when there's so many interviews with him where he claims
- 33:26Speaker 4: not only does he read a lot of books, but
- 33:27Speaker 4: he speed reads them. Is Gavin Newsome the most dishonest
- 33:32Speaker 4: politician in the US? A?
- 33:35Speaker 11: Gavin Nussim is a chameleon. He will be whatever he
- 33:37Speaker 11: thinks his audience wants him to be, or whatever it's
- 33:40Speaker 11: convenient to be in order to gain power. He doesn't
- 33:43Speaker 11: seem to mean anything he says. You know, some people
- 33:47Speaker 11: in America think that Nusim is a great politician. It
- 33:49Speaker 11: seems to me that he is so transparent a liar
- 33:53Speaker 11: that I don't think he can fool anyone.
- 33:57Speaker 4: Now, John, I love it when our own taxpayer funded
- 34:01Speaker 4: ABC goes viral in the US always, almost always for
- 34:05Speaker 4: the wrong reasons.
- 34:06Speaker 3: You wrote this week about the ABC.
- 34:08Speaker 4: Claiming that climate change was a leading cause of child marriages.
- 34:14Speaker 4: Nothing to do with cultural or religious practices. Apparently it's
- 34:17Speaker 4: all to do with the weather.
- 34:18Speaker 3: John.
- 34:20Speaker 11: Yeah, that article went on and on about how climate
- 34:23Speaker 11: change is causing flooding in Bangladesh and therefore is responsible
- 34:27Speaker 11: for an increase in child marriages, which seems like a
- 34:31Speaker 11: non sequitor to me. But I looked it up and
- 34:33Speaker 11: in fact, rainfall has been trending down in Bank Bangladesh.
- 34:37Speaker 3: It's not up.
- 34:39Speaker 11: I think it's pretty obvious that the cultural factors are
- 34:42Speaker 11: responsible for child marriages and deprivation of women's rights in general.
- 34:47Speaker 11: Bangladesh is ninety one percent Muslim where I live. readA
- 34:52Speaker 11: it range, you know, But rainfall doesn't lead to child marriages.
- 34:58Speaker 3: No, this is a the ABAC.
- 35:01Speaker 4: Tax Payers in this country give it around one point
- 35:04Speaker 4: two billion a year, one point two billion with a
- 35:07Speaker 4: B so to churn out that sort of activist rubbish. Now,
- 35:10Speaker 4: before you go, I want to ask about a rising
- 35:12Speaker 4: star in Republican ranks, Brandon gil we'll seem here speaking
- 35:17Speaker 4: to in a stepment about positive discrimination or just discrimination.
- 35:22Speaker 3: If you want to be accurate at in universities.
- 35:25Speaker 11: Do colleges and universities typically least prefer in their admissions processes.
- 35:31Speaker 19: White men, Asians men is not a rast obviously, but
- 35:35Speaker 19: there actually might be some a little bit of reverse
- 35:37Speaker 19: discrimination actually going against women now because women so predominate
- 35:40Speaker 19: on universities, But yes, whites and Asians primarily.
- 35:43Speaker 11: Why do you think that it's primarily those groups?
- 35:47Speaker 19: Because they're in a war with the reality of these disparities.
- 35:51Speaker 19: So if you want to have a quota that comes
- 35:53Speaker 19: out perfectly racially balanced at the end, the only way
- 35:57Speaker 19: that these universities have been able to achieve that is
- 35:59Speaker 19: by discriminating on the basis of race and sex in
- 36:02Speaker 19: their admissions.
- 36:04Speaker 4: I'm a big fan of Brandon gil I see him
- 36:06Speaker 4: as a future presidential candidate at some point.
- 36:10Speaker 3: But on the.
- 36:10Speaker 4: Issue being discussed, there have universities done anything meaningful to
- 36:15Speaker 4: change these DEI policies or have they just found more
- 36:19Speaker 4: creative ways to essentially be racist.
- 36:24Speaker 11: I think most universities are either continuing their DEI policies
- 36:28Speaker 11: under another name, or else they're just lying low hoping
- 36:32Speaker 11: for a Democrat to be elected president in twenty twenty eight,
- 36:35Speaker 11: so that race discrimination at least de facto will be
- 36:39Speaker 11: legalized again and they can go back to their old ways.
- 36:43Speaker 11: I think they have not come to understand or to
- 36:46Speaker 11: internalize the fact that they have been engaging in race
- 36:49Speaker 11: discrimination and it's wrong and it's illegal, wrong and illegal.
- 36:55Speaker 3: That's the key point.
- 36:56Speaker 4: I can't believe they got away with it for so
- 36:59Speaker 4: many years, is John Heindraka, thank you so.
- 37:01Speaker 3: Much for your time tonight.
- 37:04Speaker 4: Thank you REATA coming up all the latest in royal

- 37:26Speaker 4: Joining me now is host of the Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered podcast.
- 37:30Speaker 3: Kinsey Let's Start with the Royals.
- 37:33Speaker 4: At page six is reporting that Meghan Markel felt humiliated
- 37:37Speaker 4: on Prince Harry's most recent UK trip, and that the
- 37:41Speaker 4: trip turned into a nightmare, forcing Markel and her children
- 37:45Speaker 4: to return home to California earlier than they had hoped.
- 37:48Speaker 3: Kinsey.
- 37:49Speaker 4: It's also been reported that Markle's frustrations came from the
- 37:52Speaker 4: couple not receiving taxpayer funded security and not being allowed
- 37:56Speaker 4: to stay at Buckingham Palace.
- 38:00Speaker 20: And her husband lost big in court. No one wants
- 38:03Speaker 20: to be seen on the arm of a loser. I
- 38:05Speaker 20: think that this trip was a reality check. Carry has
- 38:08Speaker 20: spent years insisting he can be half in and half
- 38:12Speaker 20: out of the monarchy in the you know, the British
- 38:14Speaker 20: public just reminded him that isn't how it works, you know.
- 38:18Speaker 20: And if you look at the media that was generated
- 38:21Speaker 20: while he was there, for the most part, he was rejected.
- 38:24Speaker 13: And the nightmare wasn't just the trip.
- 38:27Speaker 20: It was discovering that the privilege of royalty, you know,
- 38:31Speaker 20: doesn't automatically survive after you quit your job.
- 38:36Speaker 4: It doesn't and that was I thought the reaction. It
- 38:39Speaker 4: wasn't hostility, It wasn't hate from the British public. It
- 38:43Speaker 4: was just disinterest, which I think they probably despise more
- 38:48Speaker 4: than anything because they want attention. Before we move on,
- 38:52Speaker 4: just quickly tell me about that court room loss. We
- 38:55Speaker 4: haven't spoken since that came about. That was humiliate. It
- 39:00Speaker 4: could be very costly for Prince Harry.
- 39:03Speaker 20: I mean a fifty million pounds distributed between seven people,
- 39:10Speaker 20: including Elton John, including Prince Harry's, Liz Hurley, some of
- 39:14Speaker 20: the other high profile individuals.
- 39:16Speaker 13: They do have insurance.
- 39:17Speaker 20: But if on the four hundred page judgment where the
- 39:21Speaker 20: judge says, I can't find the evidence to support your case,
- 39:25Speaker 20: he does say some of these claims there was a
- 39:28Speaker 20: statute of limitations and they shouldn't have been brought to me.
- 39:31Speaker 20: The insurance company could look at that and say, your
- 39:35Speaker 20: attorneys should have never presented this in the courtroom in
- 39:38Speaker 20: the first place, so we're not going to pay out
- 39:41Speaker 20: this fee. I mean, this really could be Prince Harry's
- 39:45Speaker 20: most detrimental move professionally when it comes to how much
- 39:50Speaker 20: he could owe the courts after this case.
- 39:54Speaker 3: Incredible stuff.
- 39:55Speaker 4: Now there is some good news for the couple. The
- 39:59Speaker 4: Duchess Netflix program With Love Meghan has received a Daytime
- 40:05Speaker 4: Emmy nomination for Outstanding Lifestyle Series. To celebrate the nomination,
- 40:11Speaker 4: Meghan took to Instagram and wrote a huge congratulations to
- 40:14Speaker 4: the amazing crew, producers and team who worked on With
- 40:18Speaker 4: Love Meghan Kinsey a Daytime Emmy nomination.
- 40:22Speaker 3: I mean, this may be a new low.
- 40:24Speaker 20: Well, this is a reminder that industry awards and audience
- 40:28Speaker 20: enthusiasm are not always measuring the same thing. There's no
- 40:33Speaker 20: question that more people watched TikTok parodies of With Love
- 40:38Speaker 20: Meghan than watched her actual program on Netflix. And you know,
- 40:43Speaker 20: awards are interesting in Hollywood. Someone pays to be considered
- 40:47Speaker 20: for a nomination in a category with no competition, and
- 40:51Speaker 20: they get to boast that they're Emmy nominated. But one
- 40:54Speaker 20: nomination or award doesn't guarantee a successful entertainment career, and
- 40:59Speaker 20: it certainly won't turn around a reputation for being difficult
- 41:02Speaker 20: to work with in Hollywood, which we know Magan has developed.
- 41:07Speaker 4: Now, California Governor Gavin Newsom is set to reckon with
- 41:11Speaker 4: his ugly past as his former mistress prepares for a
- 41:15Speaker 4: sit down interview with Vanity Fair. The interview will detail
- 41:18Speaker 4: the trice that rocked San Francisco politics, where Newsom was
- 41:22Speaker 4: mayor at the time. That was what he did before
- 41:25Speaker 4: he became governor of California.
- 41:27Speaker 3: He engaged in an affair with.
- 41:29Speaker 4: Ruby Ripney Gidney, who was his appointment secretary and was
- 41:34Speaker 4: married to his campaign manager and friend Kinsey. So he
- 41:39Speaker 4: was not only betraying his own partner but also his
- 41:43Speaker 4: great mate.
- 41:44Speaker 3: I mean, what a.
- 41:44Speaker 13: Guy betraying his wife.
- 41:48Speaker 20: You know, he was allegedly betraying one of his closest
- 41:50Speaker 20: political allies. You know, that's a spectacular failure of judgment.
- 41:57Speaker 20: Politicians always tell us character matters, get to decide whether
- 42:01Speaker 20: character still matters when it's their preferred politician. But this
- 42:05Speaker 20: goes beyond gossa because directly to questions of trust, loyalty,
- 42:10Speaker 20: and judgment. This man wants to be America's next president
- 42:14Speaker 20: and has the more compass of Hunter Biden on a bender,
- 42:18Speaker 20: I'm very concerned.
- 42:21Speaker 4: Well, I think Hunter did one better. It wasn't just
- 42:24Speaker 4: his best mate who he was betraying. He ended up
- 42:27Speaker 4: coupled up with his dead brother's widow, So I mean
- 42:32Speaker 4: that's a whole new level. And he cheated on her
- 42:35Speaker 4: with a stripper he got pregnant. I mean, that is
- 42:37Speaker 4: a TV series in itself. Now's talk about Angelina, Jolly
- 42:41Speaker 4: and Brad Pitt's children, Sahara and Maddox.
- 42:45Speaker 3: They've this week published legal.
- 42:47Speaker 4: Notices in Californian newspapers to confirm their intent to drop
- 42:51Speaker 4: Pitt from their names Kinsey. This comes after their siblings,
- 42:56Speaker 4: Charlah and Vivian also publicly distanced themselves from using Brad
- 43:02Speaker 4: Pitt's name.
- 43:03Speaker 3: This split is ugly.
- 43:07Speaker 20: Yeah, One thing that stands out to me is the contrast.
- 43:11Speaker 20: Brad Pitt seems to have thrown himself into work and
- 43:15Speaker 20: largely stopped litigating this divorce in public. Meanwhile, every few
- 43:20Speaker 20: months there's another headline that keeps the family conflict alive.
- 43:24Speaker 13: Fear her not. That contrast makes Brad look like the
- 43:29Speaker 13: adult in the room.
- 43:30Speaker 20: You know, I've consistently found myself more sympathetic to Brad
- 43:34Speaker 20: Pitt because he doesn't appear to have made this divorce
- 43:37Speaker 20: his entire public identity.
- 43:39Speaker 13: He's making movies, he's moving forward.
- 43:42Speaker 20: The public narrative from the other side still seems anchored
- 43:45Speaker 20: in a marriage that ended years ago.
- 43:49Speaker 3: Now.
- 43:49Speaker 4: We've spoken about the ridiculous persecution that basketball star Kaitlin
- 43:55Speaker 4: Clark has faced in the WNBA, and this.
- 43:58Speaker 3: Next story is just further proof of the that.
- 44:00Speaker 4: According to The Sports Business Journal, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver
- 44:05Speaker 4: had to implore WNBA Commissioner Kathy Engelbert to suspendedly Sir
- 44:10Speaker 4: Thomas after this incident. Yes, that's her fist on Kitlin
- 44:15Speaker 4: Clark's throat in a recent game. Thomas was ultimately suspended
- 44:20Speaker 4: for one game and received a poultry one thousand dollar fine.
- 44:23Speaker 3: Kinsey. The WNBA is denying this report.
- 44:27Speaker 4: It's saying the story is false, but they do have
- 44:32Speaker 4: form in this area.
- 44:34Speaker 3: You know.
- 44:35Speaker 20: If this report is true, it suggests someone outside the
- 44:39Speaker 20: WNBA understood the business consequences before the league did. Keaitland
- 44:44Speaker 20: Clark isn't just another rookie. She's the economic engine of
- 44:48Speaker 20: the league right now.
- 44:49Speaker 13: The WNBA can deny.
- 44:51Speaker 20: This specific report, but what they can't deny is that
- 44:55Speaker 20: fans have repeatedly watched Clark take excessive physical punishm Protecting
- 45:01Speaker 20: your biggest star shouldn't be controversial.
- 45:03Speaker 13: It should be business one oh one absolutely.
- 45:08Speaker 3: I mean she gets monstered every match.
- 45:11Speaker 4: She just has very heavy fouls against her, and a
- 45:15Speaker 4: lot of stuff doesn't get called they would ordinarily get called.
- 45:20Speaker 4: It's undeniable that there's something weird going on in that league.
- 45:24Speaker 4: I don't know why you'd want to be undermining your
- 45:26Speaker 4: biggest draw card. Now, let's stick with women's sport and
- 45:30Speaker 4: former US women's soccer captain Meghan Raperneau has claimed that
- 45:34Speaker 4: her advocacy for trans rights cost her a brand deal
- 45:38Speaker 4: after AI software highlighted her collaboration as a risk. Raperneau
- 45:45Speaker 4: wrote in an op ed for Mary Claire anti inclusion,
- 45:48Speaker 4: politicians have made the conversation around trans athletes in sport
- 45:52Speaker 4: so muddied and full of false fear mongering that brands
- 45:56Speaker 4: lacking moral clarity are running from miss association.
- 46:00Speaker 3: Give me a break.
- 46:01Speaker 4: I love this response from Australian women's rights campaign and
- 46:05Speaker 4: friend of the program Sal Grover, who wrote, when you're
- 46:08Speaker 4: famous only because of women's sport, but then make your
- 46:11Speaker 4: personal brand the destruction of women's sport, it may eventually
- 46:15Speaker 4: be a problem. Kinsey Well said, there the victim playing
- 46:19Speaker 4: here by Megan Rapperno is just gross.
- 46:24Speaker 20: Brands don't oh celebrities endorsement deals. They respond to consumers.
- 46:30Speaker 20: Meghan is entitled to her views. Consumers are equally entitled
- 46:33Speaker 20: to decide whether they want to buy products associated with
- 46:36Speaker 20: those views. Calling every disagreement fear mongering doesn't explain why
- 46:41Speaker 20: companies are nervous. Companies tend to fill consumers.
- 46:46Speaker 3: Absolutely.
- 46:47Speaker 4: Now, before you go, the biggest sporting star in the
- 46:50Speaker 4: US in recent weeks hasn't been a basketball or even
- 46:53Speaker 4: a baseball play. It's been Norwegian football superstar Earling Halland,
- 46:58Speaker 4: who has won millions fans around the world. In Peru alone,
- 47:02Speaker 4: there have been around five hundred newborns named Holland in
- 47:06Speaker 4: recent days. See tell Me about the Harling phenomenon. While
- 47:12Speaker 4: so many around the world, particularly in the US, going
- 47:14Speaker 4: crazy for this.
- 47:15Speaker 20: Guy, I think because we love authenticity, and Holland doesn't
- 47:20Speaker 20: seem overly manufactured. He's enormous, scores ridiculous goals, dresses like
- 47:25Speaker 20: a Viking one day and buys a taxat er meat
- 47:27Speaker 20: raccoon the next. It's impossible not to watch sports. Fans
- 47:31Speaker 20: love personalities that feel unpredictable, and Holland somehow manages to
- 47:36Speaker 20: be both one of the world's best footballers and the
- 47:39Speaker 20: internet's favorite oddball. I mean, I've interviewed hundreds of celebrities
- 47:44Speaker 20: and know the polished media train types all blur together.
- 47:49Speaker 20: Holland is memorable because he's genuinely weird.
- 47:54Speaker 4: He's genuinely weird but likable, like is just so much
- 47:58Speaker 4: to like about him. I've seen so many posts saying
- 48:01Speaker 4: he's the perfect model of masculinity. Is a strong, fearsome,
- 48:06Speaker 4: Viking looking thing, but also always has a smile on
- 48:09Speaker 4: his face. And yeah, we saw him there. You're talking
- 48:12Speaker 4: about being a little bit stranger. He got himself a
- 48:15Speaker 4: raccoon to take home from the US Kinseyschofield, thank you
- 48:19Speaker 4: so much for your time, and that's all the time
- 48:22Speaker 4: we have. Don't go anywhere Near's night is up next
