  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon show here
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: with Ben Avery, our producer from a temporary studio, an
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: undisclosed location, uh, in Los Angeles, California, RIP Norm out
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the gate, uh, the worst story of the year, hopefully
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: in comedy. Um, you know, uh, Norm Macdonald passed away.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: One of the greatest comedians it's ever lived. Uh, respected
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: by everybody in comedy, no matter what kind of type
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: of comedian you were or what you believed politically, everybody
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: loved Norm Macdonald. You were obsessed.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Huge fan.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: With Norm. Yeah. When Norm retweeted us, I remember that
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: was like a massive day. Yeah, it was huge. I
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: don't remember what video it was.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: It was the OJ one.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he was just a fucking... That retweet
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: was like everything when that happened. And then he said
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: some kind things about some of the stuff we did
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: on Twitter. And that was awesome. And, you know, some
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: of the videos we put out and some of the
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: clips of the podcast he had said good stuff about.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: And that just makes your life as a comic, right?
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: To have someone like that appreciate what you do. Especially
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: because my story with Norm is not, it doesn't start
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: out great. Because I did Last Comic Standing in 2000
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: and whatever. It never aired. And I did my joke
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: and I did well. And it was him. It was Damon,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Damon Wayans and Roseanne.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: And Roseanne liked me. Damon Wayans, like, he was like, not,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: he was just like, yeah. He just like smiled and laughed.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: I think he said right on. I don't know what he,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: he was just like barely there. Like he wasn't, I
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: don't remember anything either way. And then Norm was like,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: how many years have you been doing comedy? I'm like four.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: He's like, what? It takes 10 years to be a comedian.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: What are you doing here? I was like, And I
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: remember that was the biggest gut punch I got in standup.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: And I remember being at the Hilton by where they
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: shoot all those shows by where is that universal city?
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. I was in the Hilton and I was
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: just like, like I couldn't even eat. I was like,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: this is horrible. And I spoke to that. One of
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: the comics I was staying with at, at that point.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: And he was like, last comic standing. He's like, you
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: go in there and they pay legend to tell you
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: not to do what you love. which is kind of fun.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: But I got over it. I kept doing it. And
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: then he became a fan of us later on and
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of shit we were doing. And he was right.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: You know, I was a four-year, five-year comic then. It's like,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: you do need more time to mature. He did some
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: hilarious shit. This clip is so funny.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was wondering if we could play this.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: From the view. Yeah, I mean, there's just, by the way,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: you can go on a binge of Norm MacDonald stuff
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: because all of it, is funny, you will lose hours
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: of your day. Every rant, every joke, you go back
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: to SNL, when he was doing Burt Reynolds, I mean
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: just there's nothing that's not amazing, but play this from
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: the view. Do we don't want any more murderers? I
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: think we should just go on to the next question.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Because of murderers. Oh, Clinton, he murdered a guy. Yeah,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: you know, you're not allowed to put out no accusations
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: without proof, Charlie. That's a little too far. That's the
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: way it doesn't work. Let's just go on to the
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: next question. This is not my week, what can I
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: tell you?
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's not mine either, and I'm being very nice, okay?
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Be a good boy.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Now, Norm.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Do you never hear that? No. Listen, we don't need
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: to talk about that. I don't want to get into this,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: and I don't want to hear it, and this is
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: not the place to make those accusations, and you're supposed
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: to be funny.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Let's get on with it.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Exactly. So get with it. There you go. This is
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: a live show. Why? But you have been properly chastised
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: by Barbara, so I'm now going to ask the next question.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I thought it was a matter of record.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Shut up.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Shut up. Let me do this, okay? I'll tell you
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: what's the matter of record. You will not be invited
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: back if you don't shut up.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: All right, now.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: What is Star Jones doing now, by the way? Like,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: where did Star Jones land? That's interesting.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Let's see.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: What is she up to?
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: I think she did, like, a whole weight loss thing, right?
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Was that the direction she went in?
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Star Jones is an American lawyer. What is she doing now?
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: She left The View in 06, so I mean, to
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: see what she's doing now.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I don't want to lose too much of the show.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be like 30 minutes into this.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: We're still like, yeah, we don't really know.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: So she went from The View to her original network,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Court TV, now rebranded True TV. Then the final episode
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: of Star Jones aired on in 2008. And I don't
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: think she's done much since.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Well, she's in an episode of The Impractical Jokers. Did
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: you know that?
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Oh, interesting.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Well, it's controversial because all the jokers dress up like her.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: They put on fat suits and they do blackface. And
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: they all... Because the whole joke is that none of
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: them know that the other three are also star jokes.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: The fun show called The Activist, which... was going to
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: debut on, I don't know, one of these networks that
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: wants nothing to do with me. CBS. The Activist was announced,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: and it was going to be a reality competition show
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: where people competed to be crowned the best activist.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: In a battle for relevancy on social media.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes. It was something that I would pitch as
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a joke. CBS decided to actually fund and make a
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: show where people would compete to be the best social
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: media activist. And when I criticize celebrity activism, it's not
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: so much that it's not, I'm not saying like, oh,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: it's not good. I'm saying it's not real. Like, it
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't exist. See, it's, depending on the way you feel,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: it might be misguided, but it's not even happening, is
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: my point. It's just people talking. Nothing's going on. Occasionally
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: there's some charity or slush fund that you can't really
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: trace where the money goes. occasionally there's a fundraiser where
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: people go and eat nice food and wear designer clothing
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: and they all write checks. And then a portion of
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: that money gets funneled to something that may help someone
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: somewhere down the line, but it's not really like direct action. Right. Um,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: And this is really what it is. And every now
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: and then, Hollywood does something that's so heinous that they
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: have to disavow it. Usually they try to defend what
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: they do, even though they're on very shaky ground. Like
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the Imagine video, people are like, it makes people happy.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Shut up. You're a cynic. You know, remember that when
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: everybody got together in the beginning of the pandemic, when
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: everybody was unemployed and everyone was shut down and nobody
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: had a job and the hero nurses we've heard endlessly
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: about are all, supposedly the nurses found that comforting, I guess.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: I don't know. We couldn't get them PPE. They were
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: wearing garbage bags, but apparently seeing Gail Gadot and all
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: these people sing helped them. But Hollywood every now and
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: then just does something so egregious that that they have
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: to immediately go, hey, our mistake and retool. And the
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: activist competition, it's like the apprentice for Black Lives Matter activists. Truly. No,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: it's the apprentice for woke activists. On Instagram, like, you know,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: the tits out, you know, we've all seen the Instagrams.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Every hot chick on Instagram and even most of the
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: hot dudes, the profile picture is like BLM. Make sure
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the pronouns are in there. She, her BLM here are
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: the tits. That was the show. They said, let's find hot, attractive,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: socially conscious activists to basically go and fool the world
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: using CBS, which is a pretty large platform. Let's bring
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: on people who, to play a trick, to play a
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: joke on the world and say that they are really
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: concerned with activism, but have the time to participate in
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: a reality show on CBS. In the midst of their
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: very busy careers as activists, they have the time to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: do a reality competition show. Some would say it's a
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: frivolous endeavor. Oh, no, no. It's going to get them
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: a lot of new people to follow them on social
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: media so they can continue to do better activism. Okay,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: this was the plot of the show. By the way,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: you don't realize how long or how shows have to
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: get made. There's a process. And I've been through the
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: process many times and it's never worked. But I know
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: the process. There are layers of approval that you have
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: to get from many different people. It's not just like
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: one person goes, let's do it. This idea had to
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: climb a ladder. of multiple people that had to sign
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: off on this saying that this was a good idea. Also,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: this didn't start yesterday. This idea was not hatched a
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: week ago, which makes me think that this idea probably
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: came to an executive during the riots.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the timeline makes sense.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: The timeline does make sense. So during the riots, after
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: the murder of George Floyd, which was fucking, like it
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: was an execution killing of George Floyd. And all of
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: these things that we're all figuring out, Tamir Rice, this
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: poor kid who got shot, you know, who had a
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: BB gun and all of these different things that had
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: made people really start talking about policing and rights and
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: all that. During this time, someone in the town that
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I'm in right now had an idea for a show.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: They were looking at all these people on social media.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Remember the black square? I put one up.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Yes, I remember.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: The black square. I didn't know. I thought it was
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: going to be a collage or something. Didn't turn out
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: that way. The black square after. Because if you were white,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: the next day, you were just like, hey, man, here's
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: the black square. Because that's nuts. I don't want to
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: stand on anyone's neck. And listen, it was a CIA psyop, sure.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: But sometimes, every now and then, you just go, sometimes
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: a CIA psyop is better than people going, why the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: fuck did this piece of shit not post a black square?
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: You look like you wouldn't post a black square. So
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: I threw up that black square. Because that was, you know,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: people were really figuring out how they were going to
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: be like, hey man, this shit's fucked up. I don't
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: go in with the narrative that all cops are horrible people,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: but there's a problem. You can't stand on someone's neck
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: for nine minutes. This is an issue. Around that time,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: when people were having those discussions, around that time, When
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: people were calling for these ridiculous things that have been reversed,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: like defunding the cops and abolishing the cops when none
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: of that really works. But around that time, someone in
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: the town I'm in now said, there's a show here.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: That's what they said. They go, there's a show. There's
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: a show. They had to do this. They had to
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: sit in a room and do this with other executives.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: They had to go. We're so focused right now on
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: positive change. No, this is what had to happen. And
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Ben's laughing because he knows this is exactly.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: There were tanks rolling down the street at this time, too,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: if you remember.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: No, no, no. The country was on the brink of, like...
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: I don't want to say civil war, but whatever was
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: going on was... I mean, I remember smoking a cigarette
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: in Palm Springs. I was on the phone with Giannis,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: and we were watching these riots. We were going, this
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: is fucking crazy. We were on the phone for two hours.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: I smoked, like, two packs of cigarettes, just staring at these... Things,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: it was unbelievable. Just things getting lit on fire. And
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: it was crazy. During that time, someone went, you know,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: we're all, you know, in a meeting and maybe it
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: was a zoom meeting. Probably nobody's in the office. So
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: on a zoom call, they went, you know, there's just
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: this young generation of activists that we really respect, you know,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: think Parkland, you know, think David Hogg, Emma Gonzalez, you know,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: they're young, they're hungry for change. they're smart, they're well-spoken,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: they're telegenic. We just feel like right now this moment
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: is so important. They love the word moment. They're like,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: this moment is so important. What we want to do
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: is pit these activists against each other on television in
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: a competition setting and have them do, and by the way,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: we haven't even, we have not even gotten, God help us,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: to what the challenges would have been. Because in a
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: competition show, there needs to be challenges. there needs to
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: be something introduced as a variable to see who survives
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: and who does not. There's gotta be, remember, at the
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: end of any competition show, Survivor, you're off the island.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Project Runway, whatever. Top Chef, pack your knives and go.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Going back to the weakest link, you are the weakest link, goodbye.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: All of that, you're out. So there was going to
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: be a way to dismiss these activists. I don't know
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: what they were going to say.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: It was designed to show those long hours and ingenuity
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: that activists put into changing the world.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I mean... What were the challenges going to be... Like,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: what I mean by that is this is a competition show. Right,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: of course. So there's got to be some type, because
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: by the way, they had these discussions too. They were like,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: there's got to be some type of competition here. Otherwise,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: people are going to get bored pretty quickly. So we
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: need a challenge. Like, we need to see who, like,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: should we drop all of the people off in Ferguson? No.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: This was real. These were conversations that were had on
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Zoom by production companies and networks. Should we drop them
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: all off in Ferguson for the anniversary of Michael Brown's
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: death and see what they do? Is that going to play?
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Should we drop them off in Ferguson and see what
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: they come up with? What will they do? What if
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: they each have to do memorials to Michael Brown, but
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: they each eat, like, one... They all choose the memorial. Like,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: some are going to do a parade. Some are going
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: to do, like, a sit-in. Some are going to do, like,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: direct action. Some are going to do, like... And we
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: have to see who does it better. We have small
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: teams of activists. I mean, what was the show going
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: to be? Was that... Do they describe what the show
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: was going to be?
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: So this person that was on the show, Alicia O'Sullivan,
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: an Ireland-based activist and speaker who works to raise youth
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: awareness on climate change.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: She just wants to bomb Protestants. That's not activism. They
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: got an Irish. What?
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: She told the Daily Beast that she was contacted about
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: appearing on the show. By the end of her interview,
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: she recalled she got the sense that no one quite
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: grasped the concept of activism. So whatever these challenges were,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: they didn't know what it was.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Here's... Hollywood doesn't know what activism is. They think it's
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: just another kind of entertainment. Hollywood thinks activism is just
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: another way to build a brand. They think it's like skateboarding.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: They think it's like somebody who's into yoga. They don't
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: understand that it's supposed to have an effect. They don't
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: get it because they don't want the effect. They're living
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: in $ 10 million houses. They don't understand. They think that
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: activism is just a brilliant way to build a brand.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: They don't get it. They have no idea. They're like, oh,
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: so you're the activist. So you care. So we love it.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: You're like socially conscious. You're woke. You're young. You're hip.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: I'm loving it. Are you biracial? Perfect. You have the
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: burden of educating one half of your family and the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: legacy of the other half of your family. Love it.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I'm eating it up. You are perfect. You're 23. Ivy
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: League educated. Perfect. Grew up in the suburbs, but you
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: had cousins in the inner city and visited them. Yes.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: This is what we want. Now, the goal of this,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: of course, for you is a book deal and Netflix, yes? Well,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I want to change criminal justice reform. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: We all do. But the immediate goal here is we'd
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: like to build your socials. Do we see merch? Do
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: we see a clothing line? Do we see a clothing line?
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: That's what Hollywood is. I mean, it's not a town
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: built by good people for good people.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: This person said, so this person, Hogan, they said they
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: kept pressuring me to answer questions in a very certain way.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: When I was recounting my personal story, they very offensively
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: told me that I sounded like a robot. I just
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: felt so much pressure in those moments that I literally
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: reached a breaking point on the call and burst into tears.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: I guess that was the most horrifying moment. Because then
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: there was the pleasure on his face like, yes, we
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: finally got the shot. We finally got you breaking on camera.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that's what it is.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: This sounds more like a documentary than a reality show.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: I don't see any.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: No, but they've changed it.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now they've changed it from a reality show to
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: a documentary.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: It was going to be a competition. A reality show
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: where there's a winner.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I saw they had metrics with social media followers. That's
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: kind of all I could tell.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no. Because, again, their concept of activism is social
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: media followers. So to them, The Rock is the biggest activist. Right. No, no, no.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: And to people in Hollywood, The Rock is the most
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: successful activist in America because he's got, what, 115 million
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Instagram followers? Yeah, something like 150. Something like that. So
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: he's the most successful. So that's the metric they decide.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: The Jenners are the second most successful activists in America. Yeah.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: because it's all based on social media violence. Again, if
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: you haven't been in this town or dealt with any
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: of these people, this comes as a shock to you. Right.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: But it doesn't come as a shock to me. What
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: comes as a shock to me is how quickly they
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: disowned it. And you know why they disowned it? Because
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: who's this? Usher?
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Julian Hugh and Priyanka Chopra Jonas.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Who's that? Joe Jonas' wife or one of the Fred Jonas?
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Who are the Jonas's? Did I say Fred? There is
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: a Freddy one. Bonus Jonas. He hates being called that.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I think he just lives in Soho and does crack.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: The baby Jonas. What's his name?
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Well, there's only three.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: No.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: There is four.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: Interesting.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Kevin Jonas, Joe Jonas, Nick Jonas, and then who's the fourth?
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: The fourth, I read about him. He's just in New
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: York all day, and he has anxiety, and he's on TikTok. Frankie. Frankie.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: He's on TikTok. There he is. He's on TikTok, and
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: I think he does pills, but I don't know. So,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: you know what happened? They announced a show. Now, you
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: got to remember, these celebrities all signed on to the show. So,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: they shouldn't be able to get out of this. Right.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Because they all signed on. Like, she signed on because,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: you know, they needed a woman of color. They're like,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: we're going to go with you. And then they go,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: we're going to go with Usher. And then who's third here? Julianne.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Julianne who? Who is it? Just like a- American dancer? Yeah,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: like nothing.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, she's a nothing, yeah.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: She's nothing.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: She's literally nothing.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: So they have- She's just there to be white and
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: blonde hair and sit there and not scare everybody.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, dancing with the stars.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the way networks think about Julianne Hough is they go,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: we need a white chick in there. so that people
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: don't automatically feel like they're being brought before a tribunal
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: of people of color. So we need Julianne Ho, who
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: looks like, you know, some girl who walked out of
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: a barn. They all signed on to this, okay? And
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: they filmed it. Please leak this footage.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: I want to see this so bad.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Listen to this. Usher, Priyanka Chopra, and Julianne Ho set
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: up for the activist CBS competition series from Global Citizen.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: And let's read a little bit about the deadline release here.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: And you didn't have to wait long. I'm so excited
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: to announce I'll be co-hosting The Activist. We're going to
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: meet six incredibly inspirational people paying it forward in this world.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Stay tuned. CBS and producing partners Global Citizen announced a
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: format switch saying the activist was designed to show a
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: wide audience the passion, long hours, and ingenuity that activists
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: put into changing the world, hopefully inspiring others to do
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: the same. Right, that was the goal. Right. That was
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the goal. However, it has become apparent the format of
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: the show has announced distracts from the vital work these
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: incredible activists do in their communities every day. Like making
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: them do three-legged races or whatever. Like what? Whatever they
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: were going to do, right? Making them cook. The push
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: for global change is not a competition anymore. I want
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: this show as it originally was supposed to happen. Give
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: it to me as it originally was supposed to happen.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I want a contest outside of a Planned Parenthood. That's
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: what I want to see. I want to see Julianne
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Ho judging the photos of whatever, women in guillotines or
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: handmade tail. I could see somebody doing a handmade tail
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: thing outside of a Planned Parenthood. Julianne Ho and Usher
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: and Priyanka, they're all sitting there and they're like, that
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: was brilliant. It was socially conscious. It was now. The
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Handmaid's Tale is such a big show. And we just
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: love the way that you took pop culture elements and
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: infused your activism with it. You remain. And then there's
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: just claps, you know? And then somebody else, they're like,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: you came out here with just the law and you
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: had these tablets that looked like Ten Commandments, but they
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: were like the rights of women. We just felt that
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: it didn't connect. We felt that the tablet seemed a
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: little weird, a little religious, which is actually kind of
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: what we're fighting. And I know that you were trying
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: to repurpose religion for obviously a pro-woman moment, but we
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: just felt like it didn't work. And we are so sorry,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: but you are going home. Please give me that show.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: I want that show. I don't want a show where
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to be introduced to these people. No.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: And they're so tone deaf. You think that they were fighting.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Before this change, they were fighting to go to Kabul,
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: go to Afghanistan, and help people for the season finale.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no. The executives at CBS were like, we need
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: something big for the season finale. They would have brought
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: out Michael Brown's mother. No, I'm not kidding. These people
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: are so soulless. They are soulless people. they would have
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: offered her a lot of money, and they would have
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: brought her out to crown who's the top actor. These
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: people don't have souls. I'm talking to everyone I've met, okay?
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Everyone I've met in Hollywood that's in these positions... They
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: desperately want to convince themselves they're not evil and they
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: just don't know how. That's why they step in shit
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: like this. They don't understand why this would be offensive.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: They don't understand the difference between activism and performative activism.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: They don't get why activism can't be a competition. They
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: don't understand why having the most social media followers at
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: the end of the day doesn't make you the best activist.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: They don't get it. They have no commitment to changing
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: anything except their own personal circumstances, which include a newer
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Tesla and a nicer house. That is it. They will
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: tweet about capitalism and about feminism and about intersectional, and
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: they will tweet, tweet, and then they'll put the phone
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: down on a marble table, and then they will drive
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: their kids to private school. That is what's happening, truly.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: You know, AOC and the eat the rich dress. I
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: didn't really talk about it or, you know, tax the
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: rich at the Met. I don't care anymore. I can't
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: get invested. I'm not going to be one of these
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: people who like police is the price of AOC shoes
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: all day. Like these guys are like, she's wearing Balenciaga boots.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Like guys, there's more on, there's more to life, but
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: it is just funny. We've kind of reached peak satire
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: where AOC goes, no, no, no. It's my job to
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: be here. This is part of the suffering that I
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: must do. I am Jesus. It is not easy. Like
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: people on Twitter were like, it is hard for her
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: to just face the people she's going to tax. This
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: is difficult. I'm like, it's not difficult. She was invited.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: So it's clearly not that difficult. Number two, she's not
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: throwing a scare into anybody over there. They're all fine. Okay.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: But she acts, you know, like, again, like this is
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: a little awkward. It's a little strange to see all
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: these rich people with the tax of rich trust, but
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: they all love it because they know it's also pretend. sheathunderwear.com

• 30:33
  Speaker 2: We're finding out a lot of these people refuse to
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: take the vaccine too.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: A lot of these, a lot of the Hollywood people.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Well, again, they have the access to like the best
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: medical treatment, right? Like now I have a lot of money,
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: so I have access to better medical treatment now because
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I'm fat. I would still take the vaccine because COVID
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: is a Holocaust of fat people, right? And I just
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: paid $ 10, 000 to get into some doctor concierge service where
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I sat there and the guy goes, don't have dessert.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: I said, thank you. Literally, I paid like $ 10, 000. The
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: guy comes into Beverly Hills. He looks at me and goes,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: your metabolism is flawed. I said, thank you. But what's
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: good is he'll do all the tests. He'll do the
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: blood and the sperm and the sputum. I don't know
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: what he tests. Your iodine level, whatever it is. He's
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: in there and he'll just do the scans and the
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: aortic and the pulmonary, whatever it is. He'll get it done.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: But the thing is, these celebrities don't want this shit.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Because they have the best, their access to the best thing.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: And a lot of them are in very good shape. Yes.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: So they don't want it. And then some of them
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: are a little, you know, like some of them, a
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: lot of celebs got, the celebs that weren't mentioned in
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: QAnon also got, like were into QAnon. They're not like,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: I've talked to like A-list celebrities that believe the world
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: is flat. And these are like A-list people. So my
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: point is not like, hey, they should all get the vaccine.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: My point is like anything that they believe, they don't
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: usually publicly say it because sometimes it's too controversial. And
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: then sometimes it's like they've literally not done any. Someone
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: told them one day when they were on shrooms that
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: the world may be flat and they go, hey man,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. Because a lot of
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the people out here don't know why they're here. They're
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: just hot and they're kind of stupid and they're in
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: this town and they have bazillions of dollars. Like they
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: blow me out of the water. They just have so
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: much money and life is odd. It's great, but it's odd.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: They're like, this is strange. And a lot of them get,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: they're kind of young and like I'm 36 and I
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: just started to do well over the last few years.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: A lot of these people, they hit when they're young.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: So they don't really have that. Like a lot of
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: them talk about, they had like a summer job for
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: like four months. Like Shia LaBeouf, made a movie about, like, what?
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Sleeping in a motel? Yeah, yeah. How long did he
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: do that for? Wasn't he on TV at, like, 11?
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: And I know his dad was stealing his money. And
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: I feel bad about that. But didn't that end kind
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: of quickly?
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: Pretty quickly, yeah.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: It wasn't a decade. It wasn't, like, forever. I'm not
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: minimizing what Shia LaBeouf would do. I'm a fan of his,
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: and he hugged me once at the comedy store and
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: said I was brilliant. Yeah, he's awesome. He won't remember.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: But he's a great kid. And I don't care what
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: he did to those dogs. You gotta... I'm, hey, you
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: got to get in character. The point is that I'm
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: saying that a lot of these people, Kathy Griffin used
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: to have a joke about Jules. She's like, what, do
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: you sleep in a car for a weekend? Like, the
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: thing is, a lot of them just make the most
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: out of these stories that just aren't that, some of them,
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: like Tina Turner, that's a different story. She was getting
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: her ass handed to her, okay? But a lot of
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: these people, like, it's just not... It wasn't that horrible.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: They kind of got put on pretty quick and they
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: started making a lot of money. So when things like
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: that happen and you don't know, you got to really
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: start to figure out like why the world is what
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: it is. Like you have to start thinking that the
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: way you, you start thinking a lot about why. things
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: are the way they are. Because it's not like you
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: struggled and worked hard and got really good at something
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: and then it happened. It's just like you won a lotto.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: So you start thinking about things and you start trying
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: to put things together in your own mind. You have
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: a lot of adult responsibilities, but you may not have
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: an adult brain. And some of the things that these
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: people get into are not like based in reality. And
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I respect Nicki Minaj. Here's the thing with Nicki Minaj.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: She went out and said, hey, my cousin's friend got....
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: He was impotent. And his balls got really big in Trinidad.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Listen. And that's a cartoonish example, right? So it
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: lends itself to... people making fun of her, right? It
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: lends itself to being made fun of. Totally understand that.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: But again, it's not a good idea when somebody goes,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: I want to do more research, or I have a question,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: to go, shut up, you stupid bitch, which is essentially
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: what they did. And then she went at that Twitch guy.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: She said, he said, Tucker's a white nationalist. And she went, right.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: I can't speak to, agree with, even look at someone
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: from a particular political party. People aren't human anymore. If
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: you're black and a Democrat tells you to shove marbles
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: up your ass, you simply have to. If another party
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: tells you to look out for that bus, stand there
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: and get hit. She's right about that. These discussions are policed.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: And the policing doesn't work. It turns people off. Turns
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: people off. When she goes, I want to do more research,
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: I don't understand it, and everyone goes, what, are you
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: going to go to a fucking clinic and do research?
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: You're a stupid bitch. You illiterate bitch. I mean, again,
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: these are the progressive people, right? You illiterate bitch. Like,
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: these are the people that are supposedly... And then, you know,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: I hope every... Here's the thing. She's too rich. She's got, like,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: 100 mil. When you have that kind of money, you
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: start to stray, right? On a lot of different issues, right?
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: You start to stray. Go to Nicki Minaj net worth.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: 80, it's got to be more.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: It's probably a little more, man. Even 80 mil. You
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: start to say to yourself, hey, I got a few
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: things to say. At $ 80 million, you go, I got
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: a fucking, I got a take. And people like jumped
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: on her for it. I'm looking forward to the... I
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: want all rappers to be Republicans. I do. I want
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell and Lil Uzi Vert to do things together.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I want Nicki Minaj to have a song with Laura Loomer.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I'm getting the racks, racks, racks. I don't want to
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: get the racks, racks, racks. I want just pure chaos.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Whereas like Kanye, but you saw with Kanye, like Kanye's
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: a billionaire. You get to a certain level of money
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: and you go, yeah, I just, I don't want to
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: feel like there's anything that's off limits to discuss, to
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: just throw out there. But then of course, everybody's like,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: but you have a platform and you have influence. And
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: if you say something, well then, And instead of analyzing
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: why that is that these people have all this influence,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: instead of saying, why do we live in a country
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: where no one listens to their parents, religious leaders, or
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: the government, and they're listening to Nicki Minaj, instead of
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: analyzing that, we just go, no, you have to say
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: everything we want you to say because you have this
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: massive platform and people listen to you. And instead of going, well, listen,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: the family structure has disintegrated to the point where children
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: are like being raised by popular culture, which is a
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: horrible idea and getting information from celebrities is not good.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: That being said, it seems somewhat inevitable to a certain degree.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: So as a parent, I guess you should get between
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj's tweet and your child. Perhaps if you feel
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: like they should get the vaccine, like what I'm trying
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: to understand here is the terror. People are terrified that like,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: we're losing Nicki Minaj. Like if Nicki Minaj has this
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: point of view, God help us. What is next? Who
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: will be next? She is a domino to fall. And
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: when it is, she falls, then what happens next? Who
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: will be next? Lil Baby? Who's coming next? Who will
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: next say global warming isn't real? Who's going to do it?
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: Will DJ Khaled talk about a border wall? Who's next?
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: I think that's part of what this is. They go,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: we can't lose... And you are losing, by the way,
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: the VMAs had less than a million views. Like, less
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: than a million viewers. People are done.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: Oh, the MTV.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw that. No one cares. Man.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: You know what's interesting about all these people? And, you know,
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: you saw it at the Met Gala. And somebody made...
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: It's weird. It's like, all of these people are... Some
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: of them are really attractive and really hot. But also
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: we have this very interesting thing now where a fair
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: amount of them are sexless. It's actually impossible to have
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: a sexual fantasy about some of these people because they
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: don't look human and they display no human emotions. They
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: display no humanity where you do to fantasize about them.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: You have to create everything because they themselves, for whatever reason,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: they look ghoulish and you just can't think of them sexually.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: They look like an art piece. And this is not
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: specific to the Met Gala, although it's kind of on
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: full display. That was Grimes. Yeah, Grimes looks fine. But
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: then people want to fuck her because she looks like
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: the person in the video game and, you know. Right.
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: She looks like, yeah.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: But what I mean is like, you know, Anna and
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Dasha over at Red Scare, were they the ones who
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: said this? I don't know if I should quote them
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: if they didn't say it. Someone said The Rock. Fuck.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Maybe it was a comedian. I forget who said this.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: They were talking about The Rock, and they were like,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: The Rock is just, it's weirdly like, he's so great looking,
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: but you don't want to fuck The Rock. There's something
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: weird about it. I don't know who said it. But
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: whatever it was, I don't think it was Red Scare.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: But my point is that a lot of the people
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: that you see now, for whatever reason, maybe it's because
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: they're so enhanced surgically. Or it's that the fashion is wild.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Or it's that they're all heavily medicated. Their personalities seem
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: like they had a microchip surgically implanted in them. Like,
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: Timothee Chalamet is a perfect example. He should be, like,
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: good looking. Have you ever seen anyone that you felt
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: was less biologically, like, he's an attractive dude, but do
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: you look at Timothee Chalamet and go, let's fuck? Not really.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: And it's not that I'm insulting his looks. He's great
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: looking technically, right? He's got a sharp jawline. He's got
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: the hair, but he doesn't look like a human being.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: He looks like an idea. Did you know what I mean?
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine fucking or being fucked by Timothee Chalamet? Like,
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: can you imagine any human thing happening with Timothee Chalamet?
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine a lunch? with Timothee Chalamet. Can you
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: imagine sitting at a table with him while he would
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: play with an endive leaf and put his hand through
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: his hair and he'd be brooding and he'd be like,
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I feel like he'd just keep getting closer to the table.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: He'd be like, and I feel like he'd just make
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: a sound like he wouldn't even talk. He'd just be like,
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: like that's a sound he would make. You'd be sitting
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: there and you'd be like, The chicken is good. And
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: he'd go... He'd be wearing all white and he'd just
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: be like... They'd give him a lemon. He'd be like,
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: I just want a lemon. And he'd be like... Is
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: he a human being? It's my question. I'm not being insulting.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: He's attractive and successful. I can't hurt him. I'm not
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: trying to. Is that a person... Is that a person...
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: that when you're having sex with that person or when
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: you're speaking to that person, is that person alive? That's
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: my question with a lot of these celebrities. Are they alive?
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: Like if I met you, would you be alive? In
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: a way that I would understand. Or not. I'm not
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: saying it has to be. So now the activists, they're
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: retooling it though. And now it's a documentary. And when
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: does it premiere? Because I want to watch it. I
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: bet it's just as bad as a documentary. And then
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk about Meghan and Harry. Because I
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: am such a fan of Meghan and Harry. And I
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: love more celebrities. Because everyone in this country hates elites.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: And we hate it. But we like royalty, apparently.
• 44:10

• 47:25
  Speaker 1: I think they're my favorite couple. And the reason that
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: I like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle so much is
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: that they prove... to me that we have a deep
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: need and a desire for a certain type of celebrity.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know where this comes from. It's certainly something
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: that is deeply ingrained in our psyche. We want the,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: we like and love these types of people. We like
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: high profile, glossy, People that are vapid and don't have
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: much going on in their heads but think they do.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: Like they are under the impression they have big thoughts. Big,
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: big thoughts. Like Meghan and Harry, I've listened to both
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: of them talk. Garden variety retards. Both of them. She's hot.
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: He's royal. But garden variety morons. Either one of them.
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: Just their level of eloquence. Like I'm an eloquent person.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: You may hate me. Many do. But I'm eloquent. I
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: have a certain amount of intelligence that I convey with
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: the broadcast. Twice a week, once here, once on Patreon.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: I watched Meghan and I watched Harry. They were using
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: their emotion to cover up the fact that they were
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: not smart. They were not too smart. And they were,
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: obviously it was an emotionally charged interview because they had
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: just left the country. They had found... out that the
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: royal family is racist, which was shocking. Up until now,
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: they had only thought that the royal family had murdered
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: Harry's mother. But upon finding out that in addition to
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: murdering Harry's mother, they were also quite insensitive on the
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: topic of race. No good. Up until that point, you said, well,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: they're just an Illuminati death cult that drink blood and
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: live for a thousand years and have murdered my fiance's mother.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: But we're going to give them a shot and let's
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: see how evolved they are. And it turns out they're
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: not too evolved. And I watched the Oprah interview and
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: we talked about it on the show. They're just not bright.
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: So like many people, but they believe they are bright.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: They say the right things. They're like, there are so
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: many people in the world without. Yes. There are so
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: many people in the world without, which is why we
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: have to come to Los Angeles and live in a
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: beautiful mansion with round-the-clock security. We got to get a
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: deal at Netflix and make documentaries about people that are fucked.
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: That's what it is. They want to be on Netflix
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: and make documentaries about people with cleft palates. That's kind
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: of the direction they're heading in. Just like the Obamas
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: who got a Netflix deal who should not have. No
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: politician should get an overhaul with Netflix. This should be
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: a line in the sand. Nobody.
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: They have a production company, too.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, why not? They're probably doing The Activist. If you
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: doubt for a minute, by the way, with no backlash,
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: if there was no backlash, Meghan Markle is on episode
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: three of The Activist. talking about racial sensitivity training and
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: the need to do it, you know, or the need
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: to get rid of horses in Central Park or whatever
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: pet cause that episode three happened to be about, Meghan
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: Markle would be on talking about it. She's a Hollywood actress,
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: means she's ambition. She has ambition. Actors are stupid people.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: They're not smart. Very few of them are intelligent. And
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: the ones that are intelligent are much, much older. Young
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: actors are, and we know many of them, they're insanely
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: dumb to where it's noticeable. Have you ever been with
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: someone who's so dumb it's noticeable? Where you look at
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: someone else as if to be in disbelief at what
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: this person is doing. If you had lunch with Meghan Markle,
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: you'd be stunned at how dumb she was. Not because
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: she's black, because I wouldn't think she was black if
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: I looked at her, because she's an actress who was
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: on the show Suits. Okay? She's an actress. Harry is
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: an idiot. He's an idiot for two reasons. Number one,
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: he signed up to fight in the Afghanistan war. That
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: was a dumb move. You're a fucking prince. What are
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: you doing that shit for? Number two... I know it's heroic,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: I guess, after 9-11, but I think he signed up
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: years after that.
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: That's hilarious.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: And number two, he's still believing this dumb story that
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: the paparazzi killed his mom. Maybe he doesn't. Maybe he just...
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: So she gets him to leave his family. She goes,
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: why do we want to stay here? And I get it.
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: I'm for them. Why do we want to stay here?
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: They're racist. The weather sucks. The food shit. Let's go
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: to L.A. We'll eat sushi by the pool every day.
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: And we'll make documentaries about people with cleft palates. He goes, well,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: is it when their face is all, yes. She goes,
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: and then every now and then we'll fly one of
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: them over, we'll clean up their face, and we'll take
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: them to Disneyland. But we got to get out of
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: the UK, and we got to come to the US,
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: and we're going to go on Oprah. And then every
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: idiot in America, but he's all, but they're mad at
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: rich people. Not our kind of rich people. She goes,
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of black, and you're an idiot. And you're
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: willing to be emasculated, so you just sit there and
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: eat your own cock on TV. I'll tell Oprah that
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: they were chasing me around the royal palace with nooses,
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: and then Netflix will open up a suitcase full of money,
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: and we'll go do documentaries about kids with cleft palates.
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: Is it luck where their lip is in their nose? Yes. Yes.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Just Google it, Harry. So that's what went on. And
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: I liked them. I used to not like them. I've now,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: I have a new thing now for the holidays. I
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: believe everyone and I love everyone. This is positive me.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: I've been too cynical for too long, but I survived COVID.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: You know, and other than having seven or eight skin
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: rashes at any given time, I'm relatively healthy. And Norm
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: just died. We're losing people. You never know how long
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: you get. So I've decided to love everyone and embrace.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: I have embraced these two clowns. I like them. Yes,
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: they're grifters. Yes, they're deeply unserious. And they're not that bright.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: But I respect how far they've gotten. So I am
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: saying yes to them, whereas in the past I would
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: have said no. I would have said no, they're exploiting,
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: they're this, they're that. Oh, shut up. Who cares? They're here,
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: and it's fun. Watching people fawn over them, we like royalty.
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: We love it. We like rich people. Stop pretending you
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: don't like rich people. Stop predicting. The people that tweet
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: about Marxism all day then talk about how much they
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: love the Real Housewives. You just can't quit it. And
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: nobody is a realer housewife than Meghan Markle who married
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: this ginger retard and took him out of his racist
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: family so that they could live in Beverly Hills or
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: wherever the fuck they live and make documentaries about people
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: without hands. On Netflix. Netflix. Netflix, by the way, who's
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: committed to just giving these people anything they want, whenever
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: they want.
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: They're making a cartoon.
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: What is the cartoon about?
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: It's called Pearl.
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: It's about a young girl who is inspired by influential
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: women in history and counts David Furnish and Liz Garbus
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: among its executive producers. Yeah, I guess that's it.
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: Pearl.
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: The adventures of a 12-year-old girl who's inspired by influential
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: women in history. The series currently in development. That's all
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: the information we have.
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: That's it?
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: She's on a journey of self-discovery as she tries to
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: overcome life's daily challenges, says Michael.
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: Well, that sounds great. Good for her, man. Do you
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: know how many actresses that do a show like Suits
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: just get thrown out in the street afterwards. Meghan Markle
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: parlayed that into a fucking royal wedding, and then a
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: year in or a couple years in said, fuck that shit,
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: and left. And I'm not saying the royal family was
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: not racist to her. I'm sure they were, but that
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: also didn't start when she got there. They didn't, like,
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: become racist... She knew, like, it started probably early on
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: when they confused her for the help nine times. They're
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: probably ordering tea from her. An exciting tale that weaves
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: together fantasy and history. Pearl focuses on a young girl
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: who learns to step into her own power when she
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: embarks on a heroic adventure and meets important women from
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: history along the way. We're excited to develop this Adam
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: and it shares with our partners at Archwell Productions and
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: Story Syndicate.
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: They're Archwell Productions. That's who they are, yeah.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: Archwell Productions. So you know what this is gonna be,
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: like Pearl's gonna go back, you know there's gonna be
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: a scene where Pearl's like, who are you? My name
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: is Harriet. Harriet who? Harriet Tubman. We got a railroad,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: and you go, oh my God, this is the Underground Railroad?
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: Yes it is. This is so amazing, I can't believe it,
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: you're so brave and strong. Yes I am, child, but
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: I'm not nearly as brave and strong That's Meghan Markle.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: Who's that? She was an actress on Suits. It's a
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: TV show. Yeah. She married Prince Harry. You know the
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: son of that woman they killed in the thing, in
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: the tunnel, and they said the press did it, but
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: you know it was good because she was going to
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: marry Dodi Al-Fayed. He was Muslim. It's a whole thing.
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: It's oil. Saudi Arabia. Whatever. You've got to follow Cynthia
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: McKinney on Twitter. What? Anyway, I'm just saying. Yes, I'm.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: Where's Cynthia McKinney at the Met Gala, by the way?
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: All she did was talk about 9-11 all day. Where's she?
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: Where is she?
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Where's she? Well, here's what I'm saying, child. I'm saying it.
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: I may be brave, but the bravest person ever is
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: Meghan Markle.
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for that show. I'll never get another special
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: on anything ever again. Like. My special will be on
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: like pepboys.com. I mean, it will be like, it will
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: be so far. Every day I hear about like another
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: executive who genuinely hates me. Who like brings me up
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: by name in meetings that they do not like me.
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: We're selling so many tickets. This show's gotten so massive.
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: And the offers have been slim. Slim to none. But
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: that's okay. And then people ask you, they go, do
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: you think you'll do a special? I go, I don't know.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'll do it. Reach out. Let's reach out to
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: Harry and Meghan's. Let's call my agent right now. On
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: the air. And ask. him if he can reach out
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: let's see if he answers Hey, quick question. I know
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: it's late. I figured you were up with the kid.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: Do we think that there's any way that Archewell Productions
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: might produce my special? That's the production company founded by
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: Meghan Markle and Prince Harry? Can we get me a meeting?
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: I think I should get a meeting with them. I
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: love it. Why not?
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: You know what we should do is we should try
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: over email and then I'll forward you the emails and
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: you can post it or whatever.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, do that. Do that. You know, please pursue this, please.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 1: All right. Thank you, brother. Get some sleep. That's what
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: I like him because he'll get fired too. He doesn't care.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I mean, with his clients,
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, he could do his job, you know, out
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: of a rehab. You could just sit in a.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: Archewell Productions. I want the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: Does anyone not like this idea, though? Seriously. The Duke
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: and Duchess of Cambridge present Tim Dillon.
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: It's great.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: We could do it over there. We go overseas and
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: No, they're here. Oh, right, right. We do it here.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: We can't go there anymore because they're racist. Right. Because
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: they're racist there. They came to a country with no racism, America.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: Because the royal family was so racist, they came to
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: a place where the, you know, we have the least
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: racist organization in America right here in the city, the LAPD. No,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: none of this was a plot. This was all well
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: thought out. Made sense. Is it like with the cleft palate?
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: Is it like they bit an apple but it got stuck?
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: Please Google it for him, someone. All right. Are we
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: going to see Oprah? Can I meet Lizzo? Stop asking
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: me questions. You're really fucking annoying me today. Okay, we're
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: doing it. We're Skyping right now with the leader of fucking...
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: Some country we're about to demolish for a TV show.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: Archerwell Productions. These people have me whacked. They'll have me
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: done Diana style. They will do me in Diana style.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they'll whack you.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: We should have spent more time on 9-11 this year,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: but we just kind of let it go by. Yeah.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: What are you going to do?
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing. How long can you discuss something? It's
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: a good question. Doesn't mean it's not important that you
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: don't care anymore or that I'm a Hollywood elite. You're
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: a Hollywood elite. How many, what are you going to do?
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: How many times are you going to ring the bell?
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't, you know, yeah, man, I just
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: think there's a very slim chance we're getting to the
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: bottom of it. I don't think, I don't think we're
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: getting to the bottom of it. You'll straight up go,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Your kids will ask you what happened
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: on 9-11. You will straight up at a kitchen table go,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Go to school. Ask them. I pay taxes.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: Let them ask you what you're doing. People said I
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: was going to have a 9-11. Did you ever list
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: it up, a podcast episode, that last podcast on the
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: left did about 9-11 that was like an amazing- The three-parter.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: It was like a nine-hour epic. Never listened to it.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: I've never listened to that show. I have friends that love,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: my friend Ryan from Long Island loves- Last podcast on
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: the left. And I know Ben and I know Henry.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: And I know Marcus. But I've never really listened. But
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: I heard that it was like the best thing ever.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: It was insanely well researched. The documentary is 9-11, The
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: New Pearl Harbor. If you want to watch a documentary,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: it's a fun four or five hour thing.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: Show the kids. It's fun. Archerwell Productions presents The Activists.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: On this episode of The Activists, we have a special guest.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: Please welcome Meghan Markle. That's like Project Runway. All the
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: activists are standing on the stage and they're like, oh
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: my God. They're like, it is a dream to meet you.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: And Meghan Markle's like, today's challenge is this. A schoolboy
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: with a water gun was shot in the face. And
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: everyone's like this. Everyone's like, oh no. They're like, by
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 1: three racist detectives, we've got 48 hours to come up
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: with a strategy, including a slogan, merch, a big social
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: media push. Live direct action, sit-ins, parades, and music. I
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: need you guys to be utilizing everything. All of your
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: celebrity contacts. All of your big social media names. The
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: name of the game here is cross-marketing. We need to
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: have a fucking... We need a fund set up ASAP.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 1: We need to start fucking filling that with money so
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: that we can get these events off the ground. Okay?
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: Now remember, I don't really know the kid's name, but
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: it's about him. And they're like, yeah! yes it is
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: yes so there was like he was shot in the
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: face yes so in the slogan I think we should
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: use the visceral nature of the horror of what happened
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: so then it'll cut to them they'll be in like
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: confessionals and be like as soon as I heard shot
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: in the face I knew I had the perfect slogan
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: if it's in the face it's about race it was
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: brilliant I knew you won right there. When you came
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: out with, and then at the end when they're doing
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: the judging, they're like, when you came out with, if
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: it's in the face, it's about race. We knew immediately
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: that we had a winner and they're crying. Thank you
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: so much, Megan. I love you. They're like, listen, it
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: was brilliant. The chanting was brilliant. Your direct action was great.
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: When you screamed in the face of that crossing guard
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: and put it up on Instagram, you know, The merch
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: wasn't exactly what we wanted. We didn't love all of
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: the designs. And we thought they were a little too visceral.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: And they were like, yeah, I shouldn't have went with
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: the gun, with the face and the gun. Something more,
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: and they're like, we find, it's like Nina Garcia, she's
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: in there for Project Runway, she's like, we find when
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: the event is incredibly heinous, we do more symbolism. Everyone's like, yes.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: They all nod at each other, like they're getting the wisdom.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: They're like, yes, more symbolism. That makes a lot of sense.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: thank you so much. Megan's like, thank you so much.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: You were all so brave to be here on the
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: CBS lot filming this show. But that's what it is.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: And God, I mean, God, can you believe the finale?
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: Like what they would have done for the finale. Like
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: the levels of depravity that they would have sunk to
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: for the finale. The levels of depravity that they would
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: have sunk to for the finale. Like the things they
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 1: would have pitched, maybe not done or got the green
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: light to do, but the ideas that they would have
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: thrown out there would have been so horrible and so
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: grotesque because you're like, we gotta pull out all the stops.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: We gotta pull out all the stops, you know? They're like,
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: we want everything, you know? There are only two activists left.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: Today is the final decision to see who will be
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: the best activists in America. Take your blindfolds off. Look around.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: You're standing in Minneapolis, Minnesota, not a few blocks away
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: from the birthplace of this movement where George Floyd was killed.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: There's a chest in front of you. In that chest,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: there are two boxes. Pick one. The box will open
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: and you will have different things you can use for
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: your final project. Some will be phone numbers of George
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: Floyd's family. Some will be addresses. Some will be pictures.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: Some will be pictures of racist gangs that have infiltrated
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: the Minneapolis police. Please join me right now. And they
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: would bring out, they'd bring out like a ton of people.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: They'd be like, please welcome our celebrity judges. Michelle Obama.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: Greta Thunberg. and Michael Brown's mother. You have three hours
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: to complete your challenge, which is making a collage to
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: show how far we still need to go with race relations.
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: Your time starts now, man. And they would have done it.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: They would have done it all. They would have done
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: it all. But the people unfortunately got in the way
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: of that, because let me tell you right now, there's
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: nobody who understands, um, humanity less than the people whose
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: job it is to showcase it for you on television
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 1: every night. Nobody understands the human condition less than the
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: people whose job it is to bring it to you.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: We're on tour, TimDillonComedy.com. We're adding second shows in Atlanta.

  Speaker 1: We're adding a second show in San Sacramento. We're adding
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: a second show in Atlantic City. We're adding second shows
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: all over the place. Things are selling out. Thank you, guys.
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: We appreciate it. The vax mandate shit is wild. Some
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: of them you could bring. Hopefully you could just bring
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: a negative test if you don't want to be vaccinated.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: Every comic in the world is having to deal with
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: this right now. It's fucking annoying. Hopefully this is over
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. And this insanity does not persist.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: You know, I've always said it doesn't make a ton
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: of sense to me that if you can get and
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: spread COVID, why you need to show that you have
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: the vaccine. It's a weird, it's strange. I think it's
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 1: a freak out that people are having. I think that
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: ends in a few months. And I think people hopefully
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: forget about this and abandon this. I could be wrong
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: about that. After 9-11, no one abandoned anything. But I
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: just think three years from now when no one Who's
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: still going to do this when nobody's had COVID? Who's
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: still going to be like, show me your back?
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 2: Ivermectin.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: No one's going to care. We're going to move on,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: I believe. There'll be another thing then that we'll be
• 1:10:55

  Speaker 2: Everyone's response to this was, I can't believe this is America.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: I can't believe this is... And I guess if you
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 2: haven't traveled, you would know.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: If you haven't gone anywhere. This, to me, doesn't even
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: look that bad. It looks like a play where they're
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: all going to get up. You know, like Les Miserables.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: At the end of the day or another day colder.
