- 0:32Speaker 2: going to talk about my experience this weekend at the polls. Also,
- 0:36Speaker 2: more of the truth. It went over big last week,
- 0:39Speaker 2: so I got some more truth to lay on you, honey.

- 0:57Speaker 2: we change our time. That'd be the 1st. November 1st,
- 1:01Speaker 2: we change our time. So that's happening because Congress will
- 1:04Speaker 2: not pass any useful legislation, including the legislation they have
- 1:09Speaker 2: in front of them to stop us from changing our time.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Even Trump is mad about that one. Mr. Wandering off
- 1:15Speaker 2: from the stage. I am so very, very glad you
- 1:18Speaker 2: are joining me here on The Carell Show. I am
- 1:22Speaker 2: trying to make sure that YouTube is going strong. We
- 1:24Speaker 2: got Instagram is going strong, but I'm not really seeing
- 1:29Speaker 2: the YouTube. And that's a problem. So we got to
- 1:34Speaker 2: figure this one out, don't we? All right. It says
- 1:38Speaker 2: it should be sending it to the YouTube. I don't
- 1:40Speaker 2: know why it's not sending it to the YouTube. I
- 1:43Speaker 2: think it's sending it to the YouTube. Oh, there we are.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Now we're on the YouTube. Got to be on the YouTube, honey.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Got to be on it. All right. So there's so
- 1:53Speaker 2: much going on in the world, and I'm just so
- 1:55Speaker 2: happy to be here with you. We're going to start with,
- 2:00Speaker 2: first of all, you know, today in 1985, the first
- 2:02Speaker 2: Blockbuster opened in Dallas, Texas. Remember Blockbuster?
- 2:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:07Speaker 2: I miss the days of Blockbuster because you would go
- 2:09Speaker 2: there on a Friday night. It was like going to
- 2:10Speaker 2: a club. You'd run into people you'd see. You'd run
- 2:13Speaker 2: into friends. You'd run into neighbors. You'd fight people to
- 2:16Speaker 2: get that box, you know, because they'd have the movie
- 2:19Speaker 2: in front and then they'd have the plain box behind it.
- 2:23Speaker 2: And so you'd have to fight to make sure you
- 2:25Speaker 2: got for the newest releases. I mean, sometimes it was
- 2:27Speaker 2: like Black Friday. It's like you're just rushing in there
- 2:30Speaker 2: and beating the hell out of someone so you could
- 2:31Speaker 2: see the latest movie. And when Andrew and I discovered Netflix,
- 2:36Speaker 2: we were very early adopters. I had one of the
- 2:38Speaker 2: first TiVos, and then I discovered Netflix, and I said
- 2:43Speaker 2: out loud, this is going to destroy Blockbuster. And it did.
- 2:47Speaker 2: It did. Remember Netflix, how it used to be? How
- 2:51Speaker 2: many of you remember Netflix back in the day, when
- 2:53Speaker 2: you would get the three videos, or you could up
- 2:56Speaker 2: your plan to five if you were really special, but
- 2:59Speaker 2: you'd get the three videos in the mail, And then
- 3:01Speaker 2: you'd watch them, put them back in the envelope, and
- 3:04Speaker 2: back they'd go. And the minute they got them back,
- 3:06Speaker 2: your next three would be coming. How many remember that?
- 3:09Speaker 2: I actually miss those days. I truly do. And then
- 3:15Speaker 2: when the digital age happened, I knew Netflix was going
- 3:17Speaker 2: to digitize. I knew it. And all of a sudden, bam,
- 3:21Speaker 2: Steve Jobs changed everything with the iPhone and Apple TV
- 3:25Speaker 2: and apps, and boom, there was Netflix again. And where
- 3:29Speaker 2: was Blockbuster in 2010? It was bankrupt. 16 years ago,
- 3:34Speaker 2: Blockbuster went bankrupt. But it was a fun experience. And
- 3:37Speaker 2: for those that have never experienced it, because it's a
- 3:39Speaker 2: whole generation that have never been to a Blockbuster. There
- 3:42Speaker 2: are kids 16 years of age in high school that
- 3:45Speaker 2: have never, they don't know what we're talking about when
- 3:48Speaker 2: we say Blockbuster. And Hollywood Video, remember Hollywood Video? And
- 3:51Speaker 2: then your local video store is opened. And that's where
- 3:54Speaker 2: you got the porn from, your local video store. Although
- 3:57Speaker 2: the Blockbuster, they were religious. I don't know if a
- 4:00Speaker 2: lot of you know that. But they carried movies that
- 4:03Speaker 2: were edited like they were on airplanes. Andrew picketed them
- 4:06Speaker 2: once over a movie he got that was edited. And
- 4:10Speaker 2: it didn't say it was edited. And he went out
- 4:12Speaker 2: and picketed them. And it got in the newspapers because
- 4:15Speaker 2: he was mad that Blockbuster didn't let you know that
- 4:18Speaker 2: they edited the films like you were on an airplane. Oh, yeah.
- 4:22Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Remember those days? I remember those days. Video didn't kill
- 4:27Speaker 2: the radio star. I'm a radio star and I'm right
- 4:29Speaker 2: here on video. So that song is full of shit.
- 4:33Speaker 2: All right. So we've got a lot to talk about today.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Many of you have probably already voted. Either you are
- 4:39Speaker 2: trusting Louis DeJoy and you mailed your ballots in. I
- 4:42Speaker 2: am not doing that. Or you went to the polls
- 4:45Speaker 2: already because in your area they might be open. Mine
- 4:48Speaker 2: opened Saturday and I went Saturday. And the experience that
- 4:53Speaker 2: I had Saturday, yeah, they put the adult section behind
- 4:58Speaker 2: the curtain. That was always like selling. We must have
- 5:01Speaker 2: let the children see how they were created. I always thought,
- 5:07Speaker 2: why can't kids watch porn? That's how they got here.
- 5:10Speaker 2: But anyway, so when we come back, we're going to
- 5:13Speaker 2: talk a little bit about my experience at the polls
- 5:17Speaker 2: and how it really did just pretty much make me done.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Aunt poked me with a fork, honey. I am done.
- 5:25Speaker 2: So we'll talk about that and so much more, including
- 5:28Speaker 2: a story from the New York Times which you may
- 5:30Speaker 2: be able to relate to, and a newsflash that just
- 5:33Speaker 2: came across my desk. You know, Paramount's taking over CNN,
- 5:38Speaker 2: and someone that's been there 43 years just announced their exit.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Do you know who it is? I do. I'll tell you.

- 6:25Speaker 1: Corral is so near because Showtime is here.
- 6:29Speaker 2: So on with the show.
- 6:31Speaker 3: Let's give it a go.
- 6:33Speaker 1: Corral is the one that you need to know.
- 6:37Speaker 2: All right, we are back. I had an experience on
- 6:41Speaker 2: Saturday that made me grateful I did not have a
- 6:43Speaker 2: show Saturday or Sunday because, quite frankly, I was in
- 6:48Speaker 2: no frame of mind to be here with you. And
- 6:51Speaker 2: let me explain. Saturday, I decided to plan out my
- 6:54Speaker 2: day after all the morning chores. And God, I wish
- 6:58Speaker 2: I could get out of this house earlier in the morning,
- 7:00Speaker 2: but I've always got stuff to do. Like this morning,
- 7:03Speaker 2: I had to do all of my pills for the week.
- 7:05Speaker 2: So that's seven times four little things, you know, 28
- 7:09Speaker 2: different things. Because I take a prescription pill in the
- 7:12Speaker 2: morning and a prescription pill at night. And then I
- 7:14Speaker 2: take vitamins during the day. So I portioned all them
- 7:17Speaker 2: out this morning. I had to make soy milk. I
- 7:19Speaker 2: go through a gallon of soy milk every two days.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Every two days, I go through a gallon of milk,
- 7:25Speaker 2: soy milk, whatever. I go through 20 ounces a day
- 7:28Speaker 2: for my oatmeal and my hot cocoa. And that right
- 7:32Speaker 2: there is, you know, what, six days would be a gallon.
- 7:36Speaker 2: I must use it for other things because I literally
- 7:39Speaker 2: have to make milk every four days. So anyway, so
- 7:42Speaker 2: it was milk time and soy milk is intensive. because
- 7:46Speaker 2: it has to be cooked. And my little thing does it,
- 7:49Speaker 2: but you still have to strain it. And yeah, so
- 7:52Speaker 2: just a lot of things this morning. I had, and
- 7:54Speaker 2: every morning, every morning, there's a lot to do in
- 7:56Speaker 2: the kitchen, not just cook breakfast, but other things, make
- 8:00Speaker 2: nut milk or do my pills or, you know, whatever.
- 8:03Speaker 2: So there's always just something. Do something for Amber, make
- 8:07Speaker 2: her food or portion out her food or, you know, whatever.
- 8:11Speaker 2: And I started her on these new supplements, Ocuglow. to
- 8:14Speaker 2: try to help her eyes as she ages. I hope
- 8:16Speaker 2: they work because I'm going to take out a second
- 8:18Speaker 2: mortgage to keep paying for them. $ 60 for these supplements.
- 8:24Speaker 2: So Saturday was not a good day for me. And
- 8:31Speaker 2: it was not a good day for me because of me. Okay,
- 8:34Speaker 2: let me be clear. What happened to me Saturday was
- 8:39Speaker 2: my fault. And I'll explain. Because you're going to say
- 8:44Speaker 2: it wasn't your fault. It wasn't your fault. You're only human.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter. So I decide to plan out
- 8:51Speaker 2: the day and I tell Steve, hey, I'm, you know,
- 8:54Speaker 2: when I get back from the park after we do
- 8:55Speaker 2: our two miles and I've done my yoga and my
- 8:57Speaker 2: weights and all of that, I'm going to feed Amber
- 9:00Speaker 2: at 11, you know, 15, 1130 and then for lunch.
- 9:04Speaker 2: And then I'm going to go to the polls and vote.
- 9:06Speaker 2: And then I'm going to go to lunch. And then
- 9:09Speaker 2: later in the day, I'm going to go to Gay
- 9:10Speaker 2: Pride at 5 o'clock here at Desert Breeze Park. What's
- 9:13Speaker 2: the festival? And he was like, I don't want to
- 9:15Speaker 2: do any of that. So I was like, I guess
- 9:18Speaker 2: I'm on my own again, which is how I spend
- 9:20Speaker 2: most of my time, me and Ember. So we load up.
- 9:25Speaker 2: I feed her lunch. We load up. I go to
- 9:26Speaker 2: the polls. And I've got my vote blue ballot because
- 9:31Speaker 2: there were 61 judges on the ballot. And so I've
- 9:35Speaker 2: gone through and made sure none of that, even the nonpartisans,
- 9:39Speaker 2: I make sure they're not registered Republicans, et cetera. And
- 9:42Speaker 2: of course, you know, Susie Lee, my congresswoman, voted for her.
- 9:46Speaker 2: And she's a Democrat, of course, and voted Democrat for everybody,
- 9:49Speaker 2: state controller, Aaron Ford, the Democratic candidate for governor here.
- 9:57Speaker 2: So I go and we park. We get out of
- 10:00Speaker 2: the car. And where I go, Desert Breeze Park, the pool,
- 10:04Speaker 2: the way it's situated, 100 feet from the poles, there's
- 10:08Speaker 2: a whole walkway before you get to that 100 feet
- 10:11Speaker 2: because they can't campaign within 100 feet. But between the
- 10:15Speaker 2: parking lot and that 100 foot, there's like 200 feet.
- 10:18Speaker 2: So there's all kinds of people campaigning. And there was
- 10:21Speaker 2: this Trump supporter with a bullhorn, actual bullhorn, and she
- 10:26Speaker 2: is screaming obscenities. Mondami is a whore and don't vote
- 10:32Speaker 2: for it and vote no on six. She's a woman.
- 10:35Speaker 2: Six gives a woman a right to an abortion here
- 10:37Speaker 2: in Nevada, a constitutional right to an abortion. And she's
- 10:41Speaker 2: out there screaming, vote no on six. So she yells
- 10:44Speaker 2: in my ear with this megaphone as I'm walking by.
- 10:47Speaker 2: And she goes, vote no on six. And I said, oh,
- 10:50Speaker 2: I support a woman's right to choose. I'm voting yes.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Thank you. Well, and I kept walking. She gets on
- 10:56Speaker 2: the megaphone and says, why don't you go fuck your dog, faggot?
- 11:01Speaker 2: This is on a megaphone at a polling place. Why
- 11:04Speaker 2: don't you go fuck your dog, faggot? That is what
- 11:08Speaker 2: she says to me on the megaphone. And to the world.
- 11:13Speaker 2: And I turn around and say very loudly, see who
- 11:16Speaker 2: these people are? You disagree with them on one policy thing. Like,
- 11:21Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm voting yes on seven. And all of
- 11:24Speaker 2: a sudden it's go fuck your dog, faggot. So I
- 11:28Speaker 2: walk into the voting place and I go, you know,
- 11:30Speaker 2: I don't really appreciate being told to fuck my dog
- 11:34Speaker 2: and being called a faggot by a woman on a megaphone.
- 11:39Speaker 2: in front of the polling place. Well, she's beyond 100 feet,
- 11:42Speaker 2: so there's nothing we can do. That's a lie. The
- 11:45Speaker 2: Nevada law states you can't intimidate people going in to
- 11:48Speaker 2: vote no matter the distance. So that's a lie. You
- 11:52Speaker 2: can't campaign within 100 feet, but you cannot intimidate voters
- 11:56Speaker 2: at the polls. I make my upset known. I vote.
- 12:02Speaker 2: And the guy goes, oh, you have to go over
- 12:03Speaker 2: there in the corner to vote. I said, why? He goes, oh, well,
- 12:05Speaker 2: you have a dog. I go, she's a service dog
- 12:07Speaker 2: and I'll go anywhere I like. Thank you very much. Oh, well,
- 12:10Speaker 2: we're beyond that. I'm like, maybe you are. So anyway,
- 12:14Speaker 2: I vote where I want to vote. And then I
- 12:17Speaker 2: give him my ballot and then I go back outside.
- 12:20Speaker 2: She starts screaming at me again through the bullhorn. Just obscenities,
- 12:25Speaker 2: just obscenities. ridiculous, Trump is king, you're going to lose,
- 12:31Speaker 2: Lombardo controls the police, you should watch out, you know,
- 12:35Speaker 2: all this other stuff. And I know that the best
- 12:38Speaker 2: tactic is to ignore these people. I know that. But
- 12:43Speaker 2: I look at her and I say loudly, look how
- 12:46Speaker 2: desperate you are because you know you're going to lose.
- 12:50Speaker 2: And that's it. She chases me. So she's shouting behind
- 12:55Speaker 2: me with this megaphone. So I stupidly turn around to
- 13:00Speaker 2: tell her to shut the fuck up. I shouldn't have.
- 13:03Speaker 2: I should have kept going. I turn around. She is
- 13:06Speaker 2: right here in my face. And she starts with all
- 13:09Speaker 2: of them start online. Touch me. Go ahead. Touch me.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Push me. Go ahead. Push me. I dare you. Hit me.
- 13:15Speaker 2: Hit me. And she's saying derogatory things to try to
- 13:18Speaker 2: make me hit her. And then she picks up the
- 13:20Speaker 2: bullhorn and literally puts it this close to my nose.
- 13:25Speaker 2: I am not making this up. This close to my
- 13:28Speaker 2: nose and starts screaming. And it hurts my ears. You know,
- 13:33Speaker 2: I mean, the bullhorn, that's assault. You know, the bullhorn's
- 13:37Speaker 2: directly in my face. And so I go to move
- 13:40Speaker 2: because Ember's behind me. And when I move, the bullhorn
- 13:43Speaker 2: hits me in the face and makes my lip bleed.
- 13:46Speaker 2: And now she starts screaming, you touched me. You touched me.
- 13:50Speaker 2: You assaulted me. And her friends are, you touched her.
- 13:53Speaker 2: You touched her. I said, are you fucking kidding me?
- 13:57Speaker 2: I've got the bleeding lip because she had her bullhorn
- 13:59Speaker 2: too close in my face. And you're saying I assaulted her.
- 14:05Speaker 2: I couldn't take it. So there's a lawyer there, a
- 14:07Speaker 2: liberal lawyer who was watching the polls and And she said,
- 14:11Speaker 2: you know what? This woman does this. This is what
- 14:13Speaker 2: she does. She tries to incite people to fight her.
- 14:18Speaker 2: We know of her. This is what she does. Just
- 14:21Speaker 2: don't say anything more and just leave it. And I'm all,
- 14:25Speaker 2: you know, that's how we got fucking here. They are
- 14:28Speaker 2: a cancer. They are a stage four cancer. And ignoring
- 14:34Speaker 2: them is not working. Ignoring ICE is not working. Okay?
- 14:41Speaker 2: Just ignoring them, let them be ignorant, let them do that.
- 14:45Speaker 2: It's not working. Look where we are. So I go
- 14:49Speaker 2: to the car and I call the police. And I
- 14:52Speaker 2: tell them, there's an unhinged woman. She's trying to make
- 14:55Speaker 2: people fight with her. She put a bullhorn in my face.
- 14:58Speaker 2: When I moved to get out of its way, it
- 15:00Speaker 2: struck me. My lip is bleeding. This bitch needs to be,
- 15:04Speaker 2: you know, harnessed. Y'all need to come out here. Well,
- 15:07Speaker 2: are you going to stay? No, I'm going home to
- 15:10Speaker 2: take care of my bleeding lip. So I go home.
- 15:15Speaker 2: I come back after lunch and drive by there and
- 15:18Speaker 2: there's four cop cars there. And I thought, oh, well,
- 15:22Speaker 2: they finally showed up. And then I don't hear anything more.
- 15:25Speaker 2: I gave them, I gave the 911 operator my name,
- 15:28Speaker 2: my number, all of it. I said, if the police
- 15:30Speaker 2: need to contact me, here's my info. I hear nothing
- 15:33Speaker 2: from them. That night, that day, I'm completely upset by
- 15:38Speaker 2: the whole ordeal. That night, I can't sleep because MAGA
- 15:42Speaker 2: loves to become the victim. They love to provoke people
- 15:47Speaker 2: and then scream when you challenge them. So I'm like,
- 15:50Speaker 2: what if she told the cops I attacked her and
- 15:52Speaker 2: her friends backed her up because they're all fucking liars?
- 15:55Speaker 2: You know what? I should have stayed. Why didn't you stay?
- 15:59Speaker 2: You know? And so I didn't sleep thinking they were
- 16:03Speaker 2: going to come knocking on my door or bursting in
- 16:06Speaker 2: with a warrant or something. I mean, I don't know.
- 16:08Speaker 2: The next morning I call and get an incident report.
- 16:11Speaker 2: And I asked the lady, I said, if they wanted
- 16:13Speaker 2: to talk to me, if she had accused me of
- 16:16Speaker 2: something or something, they would have called me, right? And
- 16:19Speaker 2: the lady's all, yes, they would have called you. You're,
- 16:21Speaker 2: you know, here's the number. You can go to the
- 16:23Speaker 2: police station. But, you know, they... You're fine. They probably
- 16:29Speaker 2: just told her to calm down. So my friend Steve
- 16:33Speaker 2: goes there that afternoon to drop off his ballot. She's
- 16:35Speaker 2: still there screaming at people through her megaphone. So it
- 16:39Speaker 2: did nothing. They didn't tell her to leave. They didn't anything.
- 16:42Speaker 2: She's still there screaming through her megaphone. When I came home, okay,
- 16:53Speaker 2: when I came home, God, this is a rough topic.
- 17:01Speaker 2: When I came home, I realized a couple things. A,
- 17:06Speaker 2: this is my fault because scorpions sting. It's what they do.
- 17:14Speaker 2: She was looking to provoke someone and she got under
- 17:17Speaker 2: my skin. The things she was saying were so offensive
- 17:22Speaker 2: to me and to the United States. It was, I
- 17:27Speaker 2: just couldn't, Be silent. Well, that's what they want. That's
- 17:33Speaker 2: what they want. And so I said, you should have
- 17:38Speaker 2: not said a word and just walked to your car.
- 17:41Speaker 2: Why did you shout at her? Even though she was
- 17:44Speaker 2: yelling with a megaphone in your ear, you know, and
- 17:46Speaker 2: as the cop said on the phone when I called
- 17:48Speaker 2: the next day, she goes, you're only human. I said, yeah,
- 17:51Speaker 2: she's screaming, fuck your dog, faggot. She's screaming, you know,
- 17:55Speaker 2: under Trump, we're going to get rid of all of
- 17:56Speaker 2: you and your tranny friends and... I have been yelled
- 18:00Speaker 2: at through bullhorns as a gay man since I came
- 18:03Speaker 2: out almost 50 years ago. 47 years ago I came out.
- 18:08Speaker 2: And I have been yelled at as a gay man
- 18:11Speaker 2: in public for 47 years. And under the First Amendment,
- 18:16Speaker 2: completely allowed. God hates fags. Those people, they would show up.
- 18:21Speaker 2: They still show up at every Pride event. And they
- 18:24Speaker 2: scream through their bullhorns. What an abomination we are. How
- 18:28Speaker 2: horrible we are. Now we make fun of them. We
- 18:31Speaker 2: dance around them. Drag queens go make fun of them,
- 18:33Speaker 2: all of that. But when I was younger, it hurt
- 18:38Speaker 2: that they were allowed to stand there and say that
- 18:40Speaker 2: at our event. And yes, I know it's the First Amendment,
- 18:43Speaker 2: but they wouldn't go to a black event and sit
- 18:47Speaker 2: there and dress like the KKK. And they wouldn't be
- 18:51Speaker 2: allowed to. But an insult gays, it's fine. And she
- 18:58Speaker 2: triggered all of that in me. My hate of MAGA,
- 19:02Speaker 2: my hate of where this country is going and where
- 19:04Speaker 2: it is, my hate of being yelled at through a
- 19:07Speaker 2: bullhorn for 47 years for just being who I am.
- 19:12Speaker 2: She triggered all of that. I never touched her. I
- 19:15Speaker 2: never raised a hand to her. I never shoved her.
- 19:19Speaker 2: I never pushed her. I never did any of that. Yes,
- 19:23Speaker 2: my face did connect with her bullhorn. Did she push
- 19:26Speaker 2: it into my face or did I, when I moved,
- 19:29Speaker 2: did I, I don't know because it was this close.
- 19:31Speaker 2: She was hurting my ears and that is assault. I
- 19:35Speaker 2: looked it up. You can't put a bullhorn directly in
- 19:38Speaker 2: someone's face and a half inch away from touching their
- 19:41Speaker 2: face and scream. That's assault. I had every right to
- 19:45Speaker 2: knock that bullhorn right out of my face, but I didn't.
- 19:49Speaker 2: I moved and when I moved, it hit me. And
- 19:51Speaker 2: it maybe hit her. Maybe it went backwards and hit
- 19:54Speaker 2: her jaw. I don't know. But she started screaming, you
- 19:58Speaker 2: assaulted me, you attacked me. It's like, isn't that what
- 20:01Speaker 2: you want, bitch? But no, I didn't. But I came home,
- 20:06Speaker 2: and I had to I had to, yes, I know.
- 20:13Speaker 2: I know I was about Ember. I was really worried
- 20:15Speaker 2: about Ember. I know. I know. I know. She was terrified.
- 20:22Speaker 2: She was cowering back. She was afraid. I know. I
- 20:28Speaker 2: carry that guilt with me. I know. When we come back,
- 20:32Speaker 2: the truth that I gleaned from that situation is and
- 20:37Speaker 2: from the reality of the United States. A, again, I
- 20:42Speaker 2: should not, even though she was right behind me shouting
- 20:45Speaker 2: at me with a bullhorn, obscenities and the like, I
- 20:48Speaker 2: shouldn't have engaged. I shouldn't have turned around. I shouldn't have.
- 20:53Speaker 2: I should have just kept going and let her be
- 20:55Speaker 2: an idiot. But I just couldn't hear. A, I couldn't hear.
- 21:01Speaker 2: She was screaming with a bullhorn directly behind me. And B,
- 21:05Speaker 2: I just, I couldn't, I couldn't just let it stand,
- 21:09Speaker 2: the things she was saying about me. My fault. I
- 21:15Speaker 2: shouldn't have engaged, shouldn't have talked to her, shouldn't have
- 21:17Speaker 2: done anything. I did. Ended up with a lip that
- 21:21Speaker 2: she caused me to bleed because of her bullhorn. But
- 21:24Speaker 2: more importantly, she really made me come home and examine myself.
- 21:30Speaker 2: And I'm going to tell you what.
- 21:32Speaker 3: Those things were. Thank you. Patreon is the way. You
- 21:53Speaker 3: have to be proud with hatred.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Hey everyone, it's Karel. You know, Pride Month was rough
- 22:00Speaker 2: this year. We had a lot of hate heaped upon
- 22:02Speaker 2: us from Trump, from MAGA, and from other governments around
- 22:06Speaker 2: the world. And if you are a trans person, you
- 22:09Speaker 2: are really going through a particular type of hell right now.
- 22:12Speaker 2: That's why when I was thinking of my next single
- 22:14Speaker 2: in June, I sat down and I wrote, You have
- 22:17Speaker 2: to be proud. You have to be proud with anger
- 22:21Speaker 2: so loud. Streaming everywhere. Keep fighting. Keep singing. Keep dancing.
- 22:28Speaker 2: We're going to win. All right, what I'm about to say,
- 22:43Speaker 2: you're going to think is unpopular and pessimistic and all
- 22:46Speaker 2: of that. I loved the show that we did about
- 22:51Speaker 2: the truth. Okay. And boy, are those videos on Instagram.
- 22:55Speaker 2: I chopped it up and those videos on Instagram are
- 22:57Speaker 2: going viral. There's one this morning I just posted. It's
- 22:59Speaker 2: already got 4,000 views. A couple of truths. A, you're right.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Shouldn't expose Ember to that. B, shouldn't have happened. You're
- 23:10Speaker 2: right about that. C, I should have not said one word.
- 23:16Speaker 2: But I'm not that person. She is a cancer and
- 23:21Speaker 2: a plague, and her kind have destroyed the country. I
- 23:25Speaker 2: don't know how people say, they talk about everything in
- 23:31Speaker 2: future tense. They could destroy the country. We may end up, no,
- 23:38Speaker 2: they've destroyed the country. Here's the truth of the matter.
- 23:43Speaker 2: The Civil War started it. January 6th cemented it. And
- 23:48Speaker 2: the rise of MAGA and us not dealing with the cancers,
- 23:52Speaker 2: starting at the Civil War, Lincoln not dealing with the
- 23:55Speaker 2: cancer of the Confederacy, not hanging them all and burning
- 23:59Speaker 2: their farms. Because that's what you do to traitors. Okay,
- 24:04Speaker 2: and that's what they were. Not doing that allowed the
- 24:09Speaker 2: Confederacy to morph into MAGA because that's all it is.
- 24:14Speaker 2: It's the Confederacy. They don't want what the Constitution is selling.
- 24:21Speaker 2: They don't want freedom from religion. They want a Christian theocracy.
- 24:27Speaker 2: They don't want gays, bi's, blacks, trans women to have
- 24:33Speaker 2: autonomy over their bodies and their lives. They want to
- 24:36Speaker 2: legislate against it. They want everything to be their way.
- 24:40Speaker 2: And if it's not, they want you subjugated or out
- 24:44Speaker 2: of the country. That's what they want. And they're getting it.
- 24:48Speaker 2: They're winning. They're winning. In case you hadn't noticed, it's
- 24:53Speaker 2: a Republican House, Senate, and presidency. They're winning. Programs have
- 25:00Speaker 2: been cut. Medical care, cut. Hospitals, closed. America is dying.
- 25:09Speaker 2: It is broken apart and the individual pieces are dying.
- 25:14Speaker 2: Our Supreme Court does not work for the people and
- 25:17Speaker 2: it certainly doesn't follow the law.
- 25:19Speaker 3: Why?
- 25:20Speaker 2: Because MAGA made sure of it. The guardrails set up
- 25:26Speaker 2: to protect us have been broken down and they are
- 25:30Speaker 2: not protecting us.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Why?
- 25:33Speaker 2: Because MAGA wanted it that way. Media companies will not
- 25:38Speaker 2: allow the truth to go out anymore. Why? Because MAGA
- 25:42Speaker 2: bought them. Zuckerberg, the Ellisons. And all we have done
- 25:49Speaker 2: our whole lives is sit back and enable billionaires by
- 25:53Speaker 2: making them billionaires and ignoring our civic duty to America.
- 26:01Speaker 2: Everyone thinks that showing up and voting is all they
- 26:03Speaker 2: need to do for America. Obviously, that's not working. And
- 26:11Speaker 2: so here's the facts. The Democrats are going to win
- 26:15Speaker 2: the House and the Senate. It's not going to change
- 26:17Speaker 2: much of your life. A, they're not going to impeach
- 26:22Speaker 2: and remove Donald Trump because they won't have a two-third
- 26:24Speaker 2: majority vote in the Senate. The best we can hope
- 26:27Speaker 2: for is 53 seats. We need 60 to remove him.
- 26:33Speaker 2: That's not going to happen. It can't happen. The numbers
- 26:35Speaker 2: aren't there. So we will not be able to remove
- 26:39Speaker 2: Donald Trump. That's the first thing. Short of him dying
- 26:44Speaker 2: or the 25th Amendment being invoked, he's finishing his term.
- 26:49Speaker 2: Number two, there is no way they can undo the
- 26:55Speaker 2: generational damage that has been done to America in one term.
- 27:01Speaker 2: It can't happen. America is now broken for decades to
- 27:06Speaker 2: come because it was broken before. Our immigration system has
- 27:11Speaker 2: been broken forever, and no one's wanted to fix it
- 27:14Speaker 2: because it benefits billionaires. Our healthcare system has been broken forever,
- 27:19Speaker 2: and no one's going to hold hard. You're not going
- 27:21Speaker 2: to get Medicare for all. Obama had a Democratic House
- 27:25Speaker 2: and Senate. He was one of the most popular presidents
- 27:28Speaker 2: in the world, and we didn't get Medicare for all.
- 27:32Speaker 2: You're not going to get it now. They might expand
- 27:34Speaker 2: some coverage and try to shore it up and all
- 27:36Speaker 2: of that. You're not getting Medicare for all. You're not.
- 27:42Speaker 2: Not in the next five or ten years. Our support
- 27:46Speaker 2: of Israel is not going to stop. Trump just endorsed
- 27:53Speaker 2: Netanyahu for president of Israel. MAGA supports Israel. And Democrats
- 28:01Speaker 2: support Israel. So you're not going to get any less
- 28:05Speaker 2: spending on foreign wars than you have right now. Aaron Ford,
- 28:11Speaker 2: if he wins the Democratic governorship of Nevada, is not
- 28:14Speaker 2: going to clean up my neighborhood. There are still going
- 28:18Speaker 2: to be homeless people everywhere. The Democratic House and Senate
- 28:23Speaker 2: isn't going to clean up your neighborhood. The homeless are
- 28:26Speaker 2: still going to be there. How do I know? Because
- 28:28Speaker 2: they've been there for decades, and it's only getting worse,
- 28:32Speaker 2: and no Democrat or Republican has done anything of any
- 28:36Speaker 2: substance to actually fix it. Billionaires are still going to
- 28:44Speaker 2: have their billions and not be taxed out of existence.
- 28:48Speaker 2: Media companies are not going to be broken up. Democrats
- 28:52Speaker 2: are not going to suddenly tell Larry Ellison he's got
- 28:55Speaker 2: to sell parts of Paramount +. That's not going to happen.
- 29:02Speaker 2: So after the midterms and the big Democratic sweep and
- 29:06Speaker 2: you all feel really good about it, you're not going
- 29:09Speaker 2: to see much change. And I'm sorry you don't like
- 29:12Speaker 2: to hear that. I'm sorry you think I'm being pessimistic.
- 29:15Speaker 2: I'm sorry most of you don't agree with that. But
- 29:18Speaker 2: I'm telling you now, you will not see that much
- 29:23Speaker 2: change because all the Democrats are going to do is
- 29:26Speaker 2: switch into 2028 campaign mode. That's all they're going to do.
- 29:31Speaker 2: And they're only going to do things that would bode
- 29:34Speaker 2: well for them winning again in 2028. They're not going
- 29:36Speaker 2: to do controversial things. They're not Republicans. They're not MAGA.
- 29:42Speaker 2: They're not going to take the big swings that the
- 29:46Speaker 2: Republicans did. They're not. It's not in their nature, and
- 29:51Speaker 2: they're not going to do it. That's just a fact.
- 29:56Speaker 2: That's just the fact. You know? Trump will ignore them.
- 30:03Speaker 2: He'll ignore Congress. He'll do everything by executive order. And
- 30:07Speaker 2: the worst part of the big, beautiful bill hasn't even
- 30:10Speaker 2: happened yet. That kicked in after the midterm. And MAGA,
- 30:22Speaker 2: they're not going anywhere. 80 million people.
- 30:26Speaker 3: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Yours.
- 30:32Speaker 3: Listen daily to the Corelcast on your favorite streaming service.
- 30:43Speaker 3: You're listening to the Corelcast. Driving you home. It's broadcasting
- 30:51Speaker 3: from a completely different point of view.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Yours.
- 30:56Speaker 3: Listen daily to the Corelcast on your favorite streaming service.
- 31:07Speaker 3: You're listening to the Corelcast. Driving you home or driving
- 31:12Speaker 3: you crazy.
- 31:14Speaker 2: Stream I Dance Because on all services. The song is very,
- 31:18Speaker 2: very personal to me. And the video now is very
- 31:21Speaker 2: touching to me. I cried the first time. Well, I
- 31:23Speaker 2: cry all the time. But I cried the first time
- 31:25Speaker 2: I saw it. We all have somebody, whether it's someone
- 31:28Speaker 2: that's passed from AIDS or some other thing. We all
- 31:31Speaker 2: have people that we danced with. And that's why we dance.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Stream I Dance Because on all services. All right, we
- 31:46Speaker 2: are back. So after this event at the polls, which
- 31:50Speaker 2: I take responsibility for, I shouldn't have engaged her. Even
- 31:53Speaker 2: though she was doing everything to engage me, I just
- 31:57Speaker 2: should have held Ember and walked to the car like
- 32:01Speaker 2: a coward. That's the problem. I can't be a coward. Now,
- 32:07Speaker 2: I didn't touch her, didn't strike her, didn't hit her,
- 32:10Speaker 2: did nothing to her. Although she screams I did because
- 32:14Speaker 2: my face hit her bullhorn as I moved. I think
- 32:16Speaker 2: she hit me with it. I think she moved it
- 32:19Speaker 2: forward and hit me. But whether it was me moving
- 32:22Speaker 2: forward to hit it or whether it was, you know,
- 32:26Speaker 2: her moving it, whatever, it hit me and bloodied my lip.
- 32:30Speaker 2: But it made me take a long look. Do you
- 32:34Speaker 2: know what I did Saturday and Sunday? I looked at
- 32:36Speaker 2: property in Lisbon, Portugal. I looked at property in Madrid
- 32:41Speaker 2: and Barcelona, rental property. I looked at rental property in
- 32:45Speaker 2: all kinds of provinces of Canada. I looked at rental
- 32:49Speaker 2: property in Puerto Vallarta. I looked at rental property in Uruguay.
- 32:57Speaker 2: I don't want to leave America. I don't. I mean,
- 33:00Speaker 2: I do, but not alone, not by myself. So then
- 33:04Speaker 2: I thought, well, what about moving to one of the
- 33:08Speaker 2: bluest and most educated states? You know, because at least
- 33:13Speaker 2: then you'll be surrounded by less stupidity, by less ignorance.
- 33:18Speaker 2: and by people more like you. Well, that's California or Massachusetts.
- 33:25Speaker 2: I looked in Long Beach, L.A., Torrance, Hawthorne, San Luis Obispo.
- 33:31Speaker 2: I looked in the outskirts of the Bay Area, Richmond,
- 33:34Speaker 2: and all those. I can't afford it. My budget for
- 33:37Speaker 2: mortgage is $ 1, 500 a month, mortgage or rent. That's it.
- 33:41Speaker 2: That's what I can afford because I get $ 4, 000. So $ 1, 300.
- 33:49Speaker 2: is what I can afford. And in California, there's nothing
- 33:54Speaker 2: for 13, not even a studio for $ 1, 300 a month.
- 33:59Speaker 2: There's a story in the New York Times today about
- 34:03Speaker 2: one-third of America can't meet their utility bills, which utilities
- 34:07Speaker 2: should be free. Call me a socialist, but utilities should
- 34:11Speaker 2: be free. There are people in the heat that only
- 34:15Speaker 2: lived in one room of their house because that's all
- 34:17Speaker 2: they could afford to cool. Because the billionaires that own
- 34:20Speaker 2: all the energy were charging them too much. There are
- 34:25Speaker 2: people now in the winter that can't afford fuel oil.
- 34:30Speaker 2: So they are living in one room, wearing winter clothing
- 34:35Speaker 2: in the house, sleeping bags in their bed, because they
- 34:39Speaker 2: can't afford fuel oil. One third of America, 33%. That's tragic.
- 34:48Speaker 2: That's tragic. Republicans won't care and Democrats aren't going to
- 34:52Speaker 2: do anything about it because they can't. Democrats can do
- 34:56Speaker 2: nothing to lower the price of fuel without stopping the
- 35:00Speaker 2: Iran war. And even on January 15th, if they take
- 35:06Speaker 2: away his war powers and effectively defund the Iranian war,
- 35:13Speaker 2: prices won't come down for at least 11 months. So
- 35:17Speaker 2: fuel prices are going to stay fuel prices for the year.
- 35:22Speaker 2: Grocery prices are going to remain high. The Democrats winning,
- 35:27Speaker 2: it's going to be nice, but it's not going to
- 35:31Speaker 2: change a whole lot. Oh, they're running on a platform
- 35:34Speaker 2: of we're going to lower your cost, we're going to
- 35:36Speaker 2: lower your price. They can't. They can't lower grocery prices.
- 35:40Speaker 2: unless they lower diesel prices. They can't lower diesel prices
- 35:44Speaker 2: unless they end the war in Iran, stop Israel fighting
- 35:47Speaker 2: their war, and stop Russia fighting Ukraine. But whereas Russia
- 35:51Speaker 2: just tweeted checkmate because Trump is siding with Russia, and
- 35:57Speaker 2: it now thinks it's won against the Ukraine and Europe
- 36:00Speaker 2: with our help. So now we are allies to communists.
- 36:05Speaker 2: And yet all Republicans do is scream about how communism
- 36:08Speaker 2: is bad. Is it bad? They need to decide. If
- 36:14Speaker 2: it's bad, then Vladimir Putin is bad. And yet, we're
- 36:19Speaker 2: siding with him over Zelensky and over Macron and over
- 36:25Speaker 2: all the European leaders. Siding with a communist over people
- 36:32Speaker 2: that run democracy. Will the Democrats be able to change that? How? How?

- 37:01Speaker 2: with hatred. Hey everyone, it's Carell, and I want to
- 37:03Speaker 2: invite you to stream my new single, You Have to
- 37:05Speaker 2: Be Proud, on Swishcraft Music. You Have to Be Proud,
- 37:09Speaker 2: by Carell. Go stream it, go march to it, go
- 37:13Speaker 2: wave your rainbow flags and piss off MAGA to it.
- 37:16Speaker 2: Do whatever you need to do to remind yourself and others,
- 37:20Speaker 2: we are stronger than ever, and they can't have our pride.
- 37:29Speaker 2: You have to be strong. Showtime is here. No time
- 37:35Speaker 2: to fear.
- 37:36Speaker 1: Corral is so near because Showtime is here.
- 37:39Speaker 2: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
- 37:43Speaker 2: Corral is the one that you need to know. You know,
- 37:48Speaker 2: I disagree with some of you chatters. Walking away sometimes
- 37:51Speaker 2: is cowardly. It is. We have walked away from MAGA
- 37:56Speaker 2: for 10 years now, and look what's happened. We have
- 37:58Speaker 2: let them yell and let them assemble and let them
- 38:01Speaker 2: do all of their stuff, and look what's happened. Look
- 38:04Speaker 2: what's happened. America has been destroyed. Maybe it's not worth
- 38:10Speaker 2: fighting for, but it's been destroyed. You know, Luke Sisyphag
- 38:16Speaker 2: did not walk away from the Republicans, you know. Larry
- 38:21Speaker 2: Kramer did not walk away from the AIDS fight because
- 38:24Speaker 2: it was more convenient. Now, I'm not saying you should
- 38:28Speaker 2: punch people in the face or whatever, but standing and
- 38:31Speaker 2: filming an ICE raid where someone's arm is getting broken,
- 38:35Speaker 2: which happened in Long Beach this weekend, in Long Beach, California,
- 38:38Speaker 2: where I used to live, ICE broke a man's arm
- 38:42Speaker 2: while abducting him and then took a U.S. citizen, the
- 38:46Speaker 2: wife of another man, prisoner, while being told by everybody
- 38:51Speaker 2: that she's a U.S. citizen and abducted her. That's an abduction.
- 38:57Speaker 2: And the police allowed it. And everybody standing around with
- 39:00Speaker 2: their phone allowed it instead of putting down the phone,
- 39:03Speaker 2: encircling the cars, encircling the agents and not letting them leave.
- 39:09Speaker 2: What do we have a Second Amendment for? ICE, they're
- 39:14Speaker 2: conducting illegal operations against American citizens on American soil at
- 39:20Speaker 2: the behest of a fascist dictator. They're harming Americans, kidnapping Americans.
- 39:26Speaker 2: 76% of those taken by ICE are released. People have died.
- 39:38Speaker 2: And what does everyone do? Film or walk away. That
- 39:43Speaker 2: is what they rely on now. That Democrats and liberals
- 39:46Speaker 2: and progressives are going to do nothing. because we've done nothing.
- 39:53Speaker 2: Democrats did not pass legislation to make same-sex marriage legal.
- 39:59Speaker 2: They were cowards. They left the Supreme Court doing it,
- 40:03Speaker 2: and now gays across the country are worried they're going
- 40:05Speaker 2: to lose their marriages. Women, Democrats did not pass Roe v.
- 40:11Speaker 2: Wade into actual law. They did not put it up
- 40:16Speaker 2: for a vote and get it through Congress and the House.
- 40:19Speaker 2: They left it to the courts. And now the courts
- 40:22Speaker 2: took away your right to choose. Democrats did that. We've
- 40:28Speaker 2: had Democratic presidents, House and Senate. They never once legalized
- 40:34Speaker 2: same-sex marriage. They never once put a woman's right to
- 40:37Speaker 2: choose into law. They're cowards. Democrats are cowards. And yes,
- 40:43Speaker 2: I have to vote for the cowards. I do. I
- 40:46Speaker 2: have to vote for them. But they're cowards. They don't
- 40:52Speaker 2: fight the good fight. They don't put their lives or
- 40:58Speaker 2: reputation on the line for us. They simply don't. They
- 41:03Speaker 2: take the path of least resistance. They're cowards. And the
- 41:09Speaker 2: only time they show bravery is on the campaign trail. Oh,
- 41:13Speaker 2: then they're brave as fuck. We're going to lower prices.
- 41:15Speaker 2: We're going to get you rights. We're going to stop ICE.
- 41:18Speaker 2: We're going to do this. We're going to do that.
- 41:20Speaker 2: And then they get elected and what do they do?
- 41:22Speaker 2: Not much. They're cowards. I'm sorry that I have to
- 41:29Speaker 2: say that. I'm sorry that I have to say that.
- 41:36Speaker 2: And that's why... We are here in a country with
- 41:39Speaker 2: domestic terrorism known as ICE. They're terrorizing communities, like terrorizing communities.
- 41:48Speaker 2: And yet gays, I have been declared terrorist because I
- 41:53Speaker 2: support trans rights, because I support letting trans people transition
- 41:58Speaker 2: whenever their doctors say, whether that's 12 years old or 20,
- 42:02Speaker 2: whatever their doctors and their parents and everybody says, I support.
- 42:09Speaker 2: I have a friend who can't even reveal that her
- 42:11Speaker 2: sister is now her brother and is trans to her
- 42:15Speaker 2: in-laws because her in-laws are MAGA and she fears for
- 42:20Speaker 2: the safety of her brother. She can't even tell her
- 42:24Speaker 2: mother-in-law that her brother is trans because she fears for
- 42:31Speaker 2: his safety. This is America. Take off your blinders. And unfortunately,
- 42:40Speaker 2: it's a generational blight. If you're my age or above,
- 42:46Speaker 2: or if you're over 50, you are not going to
- 42:49Speaker 2: see substantive change for good in your lifetime. You're going
- 42:53Speaker 2: to see incremental change. You'll see. See, that's the difference.
- 42:57Speaker 2: Republicans do huge, broad, sweeping changes. He's about to tear
- 43:02Speaker 2: down a golf course. Big, huge, sweeping change. Destroy the
- 43:07Speaker 2: East Wing. Tear it down. They make large changes while
- 43:13Speaker 2: Democrats do things in incremental changes. We don't need incremental.
- 43:19Speaker 2: We need huge changes, enormous changes to survive as a nation.
- 43:27Speaker 2: And we're not going to get it. So I look
- 43:30Speaker 2: at my options. Okay, Chuck, you're 63. You're going to
- 43:33Speaker 2: be 64 in two weeks, November 7th. Two or three weeks,
- 43:37Speaker 2: however long that day, however many days that is. What
- 43:40Speaker 2: are we at, the 19th? So 12 more days in there. Yeah,
- 43:43Speaker 2: 12 days?
- 43:43Speaker 3: No.
- 43:44Speaker 2: 11 days left in this month. So 18 days. I'll
- 43:48Speaker 2: be 64 years old. In my lifetime, in the next
- 43:53Speaker 2: 20 to 30 years, if I'm lucky, there's not going
- 43:57Speaker 2: to be huge, sweeping, positive change. In my lifetime, trans
- 44:04Speaker 2: people will always struggle in America. Not because of law.
- 44:09Speaker 2: Let's forget law. Let's forget if the Democrats go in
- 44:12Speaker 2: there tomorrow and change all the laws back and everything else.
- 44:16Speaker 2: But people, we let the infection of MAGA spread. We
- 44:22Speaker 2: let them be loud. That woman with the megaphone should
- 44:25Speaker 2: have had it shoved down her fucking throat. Someone should
- 44:29Speaker 2: have backhanded that bitch and shoved it down her throat.
- 44:35Speaker 2: But that doesn't happen to MAGA. They committed treason on
- 44:43Speaker 2: national television. Treason. I know that no one's calling it that.
- 44:48Speaker 2: They're calling it an insurrection. That is treason. They committed treason.
- 44:54Speaker 2: They built a gallows to hang the vice president. That's treason.
- 44:59Speaker 2: They broke into the Capitol building to stop the transfer
- 45:03Speaker 2: of power. That's treason. And they committed that treason on
- 45:10Speaker 2: national television. And now their sentences are commuted. They're out
- 45:15Speaker 2: of jail and demanding money from the very government that
- 45:19Speaker 2: they betrayed. That's where we are, people. Take off your blinders.
- 45:27Speaker 2: Most of you have blinders on because you have to
- 45:30Speaker 2: stay living where you're living, or you think you do.
- 45:32Speaker 2: You have to stay in California. And you're protected by
- 45:36Speaker 2: the California bubble. Come to Nevada. Serious. Most of you
- 45:40Speaker 2: listening to me are in California. Come to Nevada. Go
- 45:44Speaker 2: to Texas. Okay? Get out of the bubble. And you
- 45:51Speaker 2: will see that it's not the leaders that are the problem.
- 45:56Speaker 2: It's the 80 million Americans that are MAGA. And yeah,
- 46:01Speaker 2: that's not, what, one-fourth, one-fifth of America? Not even, let's
- 46:07Speaker 2: say 340 million Americans, so maybe one-third. Not even one-third,
- 46:14Speaker 2: because that would be 240. Like one-quarter. Yeah, one-quarter. So
- 46:20Speaker 2: it's only one out of four people, but those one
- 46:24Speaker 2: out of four people make enough noise for ten people.
- 46:31Speaker 2: A gay bar in New Jersey, not a gay bar,
- 46:33Speaker 2: an Indian restaurant of sorts, over the weekend, announced they
- 46:39Speaker 2: were going to have a pride benefit to help raise
- 46:43Speaker 2: money for New Jersey Pride. They announced it at 7 o'clock.
- 46:50Speaker 2: By 9 p.m., they called the gays and said, we're
- 46:53Speaker 2: canceling the event. We have had bigotry and backlash. People
- 46:57Speaker 2: have come into the restaurant and say that we shouldn't
- 46:59Speaker 2: have a gay event. So this restaurant, which was going
- 47:02Speaker 2: to host a gay event in New Jersey, not in Dallas,
- 47:06Speaker 2: not in Arkansas, in New Jersey, canceled it. Canceled the
- 47:11Speaker 2: gays because of backlash. Backlash from who? One out of
- 47:17Speaker 2: four people by MAGA. Because they make corporations and everyone
- 47:22Speaker 2: else thinks that there's more of them. And so they cave.
- 47:26Speaker 2: They just cave. You know? And yeah, the No Kings
- 47:33Speaker 2: supporters show up in such big numbers. To what? To
- 47:36Speaker 2: what end? While you all were out marching with your
- 47:38Speaker 2: No Kings on Saturday, I was being hit in the
- 47:40Speaker 2: lip by a MAGA person with a megaphone. So tell
- 47:44Speaker 2: me what good the No Kings does me. Explain it
- 47:49Speaker 2: in detail, please. Oh, it makes everybody feel good. What
- 47:53Speaker 2: does it do? What does it do? Is it preventing
- 48:00Speaker 2: Trump from ICE? Where are all those No Kings people
- 48:03Speaker 2: when people are being dragged out of their neighborhood? Where
- 48:07Speaker 2: are they then? Where are they? Are they forming a
- 48:13Speaker 2: line across the street to stop ICE from leaving the neighborhood?
- 48:18Speaker 2: Are hundreds of thousands of people that show up at
- 48:20Speaker 2: the No Kings rally going to go and sit on
- 48:22Speaker 2: the golf course in D.C. so he doesn't tear it down?
- 48:27Speaker 2: Are all the people that marched in the No Kings
- 48:29Speaker 2: rally in D.C. going to go block the Kennedy Center
- 48:32Speaker 2: day and night to make sure he doesn't demolish it?
- 48:37Speaker 2: Where are they? What are they actually doing? They feel great. Oh,
- 48:40Speaker 2: they feel so good out on that Saturday. Oh, look
- 48:43Speaker 2: at the numbers. Look at all the people. So what? Today,
- 48:51Speaker 2: he's still committing treason. Today, he's still in office. Today,
- 48:56Speaker 2: Pete Hagsworth is still head of the Department of Defense,
- 48:59Speaker 2: committing more war crimes. So it's not like France, where
- 49:06Speaker 2: they shut down the cities, they burn buildings, they, you know, no.
- 49:12Speaker 2: They march to feel good. Well, that's great. I'm glad
- 49:15Speaker 2: you feel good. I'm glad you have community. Good for you.
- 49:19Speaker 2: I could have used a few of you over at
- 49:20Speaker 2: my polling place to stop the bitch from hitting me
- 49:22Speaker 2: in the lip with her megaphone. See what I'm saying?
- 49:30Speaker 2: And I know you hate when I say that because, Karel,
- 49:32Speaker 2: it's our right to assemble and it shows that our
- 49:34Speaker 2: numbers are big and Yeah, and? To what end? Is
- 49:39Speaker 2: there one less homeless person today because of what the
- 49:42Speaker 2: No Kings did on Saturday? Will there be one less
- 49:45Speaker 2: homeless person in January if the Democrats win the House
- 49:49Speaker 2: and Senate? Will your taxes be any easier to pay?
- 49:52Speaker 2: Will gas be any cheaper? Will rent be any cheaper?
- 49:56Speaker 2: Will homes be any more affordable? Will interest rates come down?
- 50:03Speaker 2: Will homophobia end? I have waited 63 years for the
- 50:11Speaker 2: Democrats in the United States to end homophobia. I have
- 50:15Speaker 2: waited 63 years for laws to be made to protect
- 50:20Speaker 2: me from being discriminated against because of who I am.
- 50:25Speaker 2: And in 2026, there are more laws against me than
- 50:27Speaker 2: there were 20 years ago. Did the Democrats stop that?
- 50:34Speaker 2: Are they going to go into office and legalize being
- 50:37Speaker 2: trans and outlaw any law against trans people? Are they
- 50:42Speaker 2: going to legalize therapy? Reparative therapy came to mind. Let's
- 50:49Speaker 2: hope they don't legalize that. Are they going to legalize
- 50:52Speaker 2: gender-affirming care again so hospitals aren't afraid? Are they going
- 50:56Speaker 2: to legalize abortion when they get back in power? Are
- 51:00Speaker 2: they going to codify Roe v. Wade into law? How
- 51:07Speaker 2: come I haven't heard about that on the campaign trail?
- 51:10Speaker 2: How come I haven't heard Al Fayed at all talk
- 51:12Speaker 2: about abortion, gay rights, transgendered rights? Oh, I've heard him
- 51:18Speaker 2: talk about Medicare for all and affordability and fabulous catchphrases
- 51:23Speaker 2: and how we're all equal and we all deserve dignity.
- 51:26Speaker 2: So then you're going to repeal all of the anti-trans bills?
- 51:31Speaker 2: You're going to immediately say that everyone is entitled to
- 51:35Speaker 2: gender-affirming care? You're going to remove all penalties for doctors
- 51:39Speaker 2: committing abortions? Is that what they're going to do? How
- 51:43Speaker 2: many of you think that's what Democrats are going to do?
- 51:45Speaker 2: How many? How many? How many of you think that
- 51:51Speaker 2: when the Democrats win the House and Senate, they're going
- 51:53Speaker 2: to immediately vote right away to make abortion legal again
- 51:58Speaker 2: in all 50 states? How many of you think that's
- 52:00Speaker 2: going to happen? Because Trump will veto it and they
- 52:05Speaker 2: don't have 60 votes in the Senate to override the veto.
- 52:10Speaker 2: How many of you think the minute Democrats take power
- 52:13Speaker 2: in January, they're going to codify same-sex marriage so the
- 52:16Speaker 2: question about whether or not it exists or could be
- 52:19Speaker 2: repealed or whatever is over? How many of you think
- 52:21Speaker 2: that's going to happen? How many? I'm being honest. How
- 52:27Speaker 2: many of you think that's what's going to happen? Now
- 52:32Speaker 2: I thought so. all right we'll we'll finish up right
- 52:37Speaker 2: after this don't go anywhere Now remember, the word is F-U-N-K, funk, honey.
- 53:07Speaker 2: Do you wanna funk? Hey, it's Carell. Go stream Do
- 53:27Speaker 2: You Wanna Funk? My tribute to Sylvester. Everywhere you get
- 53:30Speaker 2: your music. Carell, do you wanna funk?
- 53:33Speaker 1: Now it's showtime.
- 53:40Speaker 2: So what do we do? What do we do? What
- 53:43Speaker 2: do I do? What do we do? For me, the
- 53:46Speaker 2: answer is simple. I need to move to the bluest
- 53:49Speaker 2: state I can afford if I can't leave the country.
- 53:53Speaker 2: If I can't leave the United States, I need to
- 53:57Speaker 2: go to the bluest state I can afford. Massachusetts is
- 54:02Speaker 2: number one ranked for LGBTQ people and rights. It's also
- 54:07Speaker 2: a deep blue state. I hate the winters. And I
- 54:13Speaker 2: love the entertainment industry. The entertainment industry here in Las Vegas,
- 54:17Speaker 2: the entertainment industry of LA. I love being on the
- 54:20Speaker 2: Grammy panels here. I love being in my SAG-AFTRA. I'm
- 54:24Speaker 2: the Las Vegas DEI chair. I am on another committee
- 54:28Speaker 2: in SAG-AFTRA. I am on two committees in Grammy, the
- 54:31Speaker 2: music advocacy panel, where I go and I meet with
- 54:34Speaker 2: lawmakers and other musicians, and I love that. I love
- 54:38Speaker 2: my position here in Vegas in terms of my unions.
- 54:42Speaker 2: If I move, I give that up. But, and where? Where?
- 54:50Speaker 2: I'd love to go back to California. I love the
- 54:52Speaker 2: weather in California, which is changing, by the way. But,
- 54:56Speaker 2: you know, There's no place in California I can live
- 55:00Speaker 2: on my money. There's nowhere. There's just not. I looked
- 55:06Speaker 2: at Palm Springs. Nope. There's just nowhere. So I do
- 55:13Speaker 2: know this. The Democrats winning the House and Senate will
- 55:18Speaker 2: be a great message, but in terms of changing the nation,
- 55:23Speaker 2: like radically changing it, it's not going to happen. Biden
- 55:27Speaker 2: didn't arrest Donald Trump. No one under Biden put Trump
- 55:31Speaker 2: in jail. No one suffered major repercussions under Biden for
- 55:35Speaker 2: what they did on January 6th. No one was executed
- 55:40Speaker 2: for treason. Some of them went to jail for a
- 55:44Speaker 2: short amount of time, paid a fine. Women didn't get
- 55:50Speaker 2: the right to an abortion forever under Joe Biden or
- 55:55Speaker 2: under Barack Obama. or under Bill Clinton. Gays didn't get
- 55:59Speaker 2: the right to marry because of the Congress or because
- 56:02Speaker 2: of Obama or Clinton or because of Joe Biden. None
- 56:07Speaker 2: of that happened because of those people. That happened because
- 56:09Speaker 2: of the Supreme Court, which unless Democrats expand the Supreme
- 56:14Speaker 2: Court and put at least three judges on it, which
- 56:18Speaker 2: is something they could do, have they said they were
- 56:21Speaker 2: going to? Has any Democrat that's running said we are
- 56:25Speaker 2: immediately going to expand the court by three judges and
- 56:28Speaker 2: put on three separate, you know, Democratic judges. I know
- 56:33Speaker 2: they're not supposed to be partisan, but now that ship
- 56:36Speaker 2: has sailed. So has anyone said we're going to expand
- 56:41Speaker 2: the Supreme Court? Have I missed it? Has anybody said that?
- 56:45Speaker 2: I haven't heard anyone say they're going to. Biden had
- 56:48Speaker 2: the chance and didn't do it. He could have expanded
- 56:52Speaker 2: the court to 15 and put on three judges, and
- 56:55Speaker 2: made Trump's picks irrelevant. He didn't. It started with like
- 57:01Speaker 2: five or six people, the Supreme Court. It can be changed.
- 57:05Speaker 2: It didn't. Supreme Court justices can be impeached. Will the
- 57:09Speaker 2: Democratic House and Senate impeach Clarence Thomas? Alito? Kavanaugh? No,
- 57:17Speaker 2: they won't. Members of Congress can be thrown out. Will
- 57:22Speaker 2: they impeach MAGA members of Congress and throw them out? No,
- 57:28Speaker 2: they won't. So what exactly, how are we going to
- 57:33Speaker 2: get this big shift that we need if they're not
- 57:36Speaker 2: willing to do the big things that need to be done?
- 57:40Speaker 2: And I'm being serious. If the Supreme Court doesn't change,
- 57:47Speaker 2: we're headed for disaster socially. They've all but resegregated schools.
- 57:53Speaker 2: which I think they want to do. Hey, but the
- 57:58Speaker 2: billionaires have more money now than ever. They've made more
- 58:01Speaker 2: money over the last 10 years than they have in
- 58:03Speaker 2: the history of being rich. Rich people over the last
- 58:06Speaker 2: 10 years have made more money than they have in
- 58:10Speaker 2: the thousands of years before. 840 people now control 50%
- 58:15Speaker 2: of the world's wealth. 840 people. now control half of
- 58:23Speaker 2: the world's money. And they're fine with that. They're absolutely
- 58:29Speaker 2: fine with it. Is that going to change? Are the
- 58:34Speaker 2: people who can't pay their utility bills suddenly going to
- 58:38Speaker 2: have help in terms of have the bills paid to
- 58:43Speaker 2: where they can use all the fucking heat they want
- 58:45Speaker 2: and they could use all the air conditioner they need?
- 58:48Speaker 2: Is that going to happen? Is Medicaid going to be
- 58:54Speaker 2: restored in every single state so the hospitals that shuttered
- 58:58Speaker 2: can reopen? They're going to say we don't have the money.
- 59:01Speaker 2: We are $ 42 trillion in debt. It just went up
- 59:04Speaker 2: $ 2 trillion, the most it's ever gone up in that
- 59:06Speaker 2: short of amount of time. We are $ 42 trillion. in debt.
- 59:11Speaker 2: And what is the president sitting around talking about? Rebuilding
- 59:13Speaker 2: a golf course. Only assholes play golf. And I'll say
- 59:18Speaker 2: that out loud. If you like to play golf, you're
- 59:21Speaker 2: an asshole. Part of you somewhere is an asshole. Only
- 59:24Speaker 2: assholes play golf. It is a rich person's game. Poor
- 59:29Speaker 2: people don't play golf. You know, so this is where
- 59:35Speaker 2: we are. And I'm about being happy in the future.
- 59:38Speaker 2: I'm tired of being unhappy. I'm tired of being bitter.
- 59:41Speaker 2: I'm tired of being so angry at MAGA and at
- 59:45Speaker 2: America that some bitch with a megaphone can push me
- 59:48Speaker 2: to the edge. I don't want to be that person.
- 59:52Speaker 2: I don't recognize that person and I don't want to
- 59:55Speaker 2: be him. She wouldn't have been yelling at me at
- 59:59Speaker 2: the Oscars, at the Grammys, at the Emmys. So you're
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: going to see the show after the midterms drift more
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: into entertainment, more into travel, and more into cooking and
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: lifestyle than politics. Because I've railed about politics on air
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: for 30 fucking years. I begged people not to re-elect
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: George W. Bush. They did anyway. I begged people not
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: to elect Donald Trump twice. They did. I've begged people
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: to be on the right side of policies and it
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: hasn't gone this way. So you know what? I'd rather
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: teach you how to make three bean salad. I'd rather
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: talk about new movies and music and take you traveling
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: around the world. That's what I'd rather do than to
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: sit here like today. I don't like today's show. I
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: had to tell you about what happened to me. I
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: had to. But I'm done. I'm done with that woman.
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: I'm done with MAGA. I'm done with Trump. Let them
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: destroy America. They already have. I'll find a way to
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: live in the rubble and entertain you along the way.
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: Because I am correct. You do who you want to be,
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: so I'm not hurting anybody. And you know what? I'm
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: just going to entertain from the rubble. Just try to
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: make you laugh as it falls down. And sing. Record music. Yep,
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: that's it.
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
