- 0:40will cover a little bit here. During today's program.
- 0:48But first off, I want to say, welcome to those of you watching
- 0:54this on Spotify. Yes, you heard me watching this
- 1:01on Spotify, big announcement, ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:05We are now officially not only are we on Spotify, but the video
- 1:12version of the podcast Is also available on Spotify.
- 1:19Now, as well going forward. So basically what that means is
- 1:25that you'll be able to put on an episode of the show and It'll
- 1:35pop up just like this. And you'll be able to see me and
- 1:42what not. And then if you need to, you
- 1:44know, let's say you want to, you know, just listen to it.
- 1:49You can exit out of the app, in the audio will still play and
- 1:56then, you know, you can come back in and watch it or do
- 1:59whatever. It's almost exactly like the The
- 2:03Joe Rogan Experience podcast on Spotify as well.
- 2:09Now, The biggest difference, you know, between me and The Joe
- 2:17Rogan Experience Podcast other than the fact that you know,
- 2:21he's a Spotify exclusive any as way, more listeners than, you
- 2:25know, any of us in the podcasting spear.
- 2:27Do I do want to assure people that this podcast will still be
- 2:33available on YouTube in the video format and it will also be
- 2:38available on on Apple podcasts and all the other audio
- 2:44platforms as an audio podcast. Now, I don't know why.
- 2:51You wouldn't want to go on to Spotify and have the option to
- 2:57watch. And I listened at any time to
- 2:59these shows, could be pretty fun for some of you, but you have
- 3:06the option now. So that's the big announcement.
- 3:09And I'm very honored. And thankful that Spotify /,
- 3:17anchor has allowed to show You participate in this video
- 3:24platform early on. As far as podcast creation goes
- 3:32and anger, and Spotify have been great partners for the show for
- 3:38the past four years. And during last week's
- 3:42Thursday's show, which was Audio Only.
- 3:47I did talk what about about. I did talk a little bit about
- 3:51the Joe Rogan controversy. Between him and Spotify two
- 3:59weeks ago, if you remember on the Saturday show, I interviewed
- 4:02Matt from foul ball Productions and we talked a lot about that.
- 4:06By the way, the video version of that is Nell now up on Spotify
- 4:10as well. If you want to go watch that
- 4:15but, you know, at first, it was Major speculation.
- 4:19That Spotify was the one censoring Joe Rogan.
- 4:25And I know, you know, the spot if ideal wasn't as great for
- 4:28Rogan as everyone thought it was Well apparently it turns out
- 4:33that Joe Rogan himself. Deleted the episodes that were
- 4:38controversial. He deleted like 75 of them.
- 4:43Why he did that himself? I don't really know. a lot of
- 4:51people are saying that he probably felt pressured to do
- 4:54that because all the backlash, that he received quote-unquote
- 5:01from the social justice mob, which Joe word of advice, you
- 5:08know, You of all people. Should be the least concerned
- 5:15with bowing into the, you know, mob. that's trying to say that
- 5:22you're racist, and You know, a scumbag.
- 5:28You've got. A hundred million dollars,
- 5:32buddy. There's no reason to, you know,
- 5:38get rid of any of your shows as far as I'm concerned.
- 5:45But Rogen made his decision and it's not one.
- 5:48I agree with on the one hand. I think he should have kept the
- 5:53episodes and whatnot, but on the other hand, you know, when the
- 6:00mob is coming for your, you know, your reputation and the
- 6:06reputation of your company and making life difficult for your
- 6:10employees and what not, you know, I don't agree with it by
- 6:13selling. I understand the you know, the
- 6:15temptation to just you know delete those up and said soda
- 6:20and just You know, be done with it.
- 6:24The problem is for Joe is he's not one of those figures that
- 6:30somebody can delete episodes and people will forget about them.
- 6:34I mean I'm sure that there are like bootlegged versions. of all
- 6:40those deleted Alex Jones episodes and You know, the Ted
- 6:47Nugent ones that as well. And the Michael malice ones, I
- 6:52think Michael Mel is like actually have his own copies of
- 6:56those episodes, I'm not sure about that but you know,
- 7:04irregardless, that was his, it was his decision to, you know,
- 7:09make That now I for one am not too happy with the fact that he
- 7:16did decide to cancel. Or I guess delete those
- 7:21episodes. I think he should have kept them
- 7:24up but it's already done. So I'm not going to boycott him.
- 7:32I still enjoy Rogue. Rogan of immensely and I'm still
- 7:40going to continue listening to the episodes.
- 7:45You know, when he has people on, I do like and I'm still going to
- 7:48support Spotify. You know, an anchor since
- 7:54they've been so good to this show in particular.
- 7:59And you know, for those of you who have stayed with the show
- 8:04for a long time, You may remember a few years ago, but
- 8:11during the whole Owen, Benjamin Fiasco and in the hole.
- 8:17And gummy incident people, most likely scorned Owen fans. were
- 8:27they were review bombing the podcast on Apple podcast, and
- 8:37Spotify and all these other platforms and anchor actually
- 8:41kind of stepped in and emailed me.
- 8:43And you know turn off the comments on Apple podcast for a
- 8:50while and kind of cleaned out the review fuse that we're
- 8:55obviously just tired, you know, troll Reviews and helped keep
- 9:04this show of flow because it seems me that they actually do
- 9:10stand behind Free Speech. Now, are they perfect?
- 9:15Probably not every, you know, every group or company or entity
- 9:21of people has have flaws. But, you know, we tend to bitch
- 9:25a lot about big Tech, you know, kind of been the conservative
- 9:30Orion. Media Spectrum, you know, we
- 9:35always bitch about big Tech and all these platforms, you know,
- 9:40censoring people. And trust me, it still is a
- 9:43problem namely on YouTube, but I do like to give credit where
- 9:52credit is due and Spotify has been excellent supporting us.
- 9:58So I really appreciate that and happy to have the vidcast on
- 10:06Spotify as well. So I hope you guys are enjoying
- 10:11this experience so far. Now, speaking of cancel, culture
- 10:18and whatnot, how was your guys's Super Bowl this weekend, folks?
- 10:28Mine was pretty good, you know. I didn't really have a stake and
- 10:34either the two teams to be honest.
- 10:37I did route for Cincinnati but that was only because You know,
- 10:43I Cincinnati kind of seemed like the underdog I guess.
- 10:48And so I just kind of decided root for them based on that, but
- 10:59You know, I was really heavily invested in the game.
- 11:05Since neither the Broncos, my home team.
- 11:11Team or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which is like her
- 11:17home team. Now I live in Florida Either
- 11:23them were playing in the Super Bowl.
- 11:26So you know, I was more of a casual Observer this year.
- 11:33Didn't really have any mistakes in the game, but it was fun to
- 11:36watch. Nonetheless, and one thing I
- 11:40noticed, Was that people were really, you know?
- 11:52For some reason, the, the Super Bowl halftime show this year,
- 11:56really, you know, it got it got a lot of controversy folks, and
- 12:03I don't really know why. You know dr.
- 12:06Dre and Snoop Dogg and Eminem, and all these other like rap and
- 12:11hip-hop stars were, you know, at the Super Bowl this year during
- 12:19the halftime show. And, and to be honest, Dogs.
- 12:24You know. Anyone who knows?
- 12:26Me knows that. I mainly a classic rock guy.
- 12:31I'm mainly Rock and Rogue roll guy.
- 12:35I do like some of stupid dog stuff.
- 12:39I do like Eminem stuff from 8 Mile and whatnot but I went I
- 12:44say like I'm a fan per se, you know, it's not really my genre
- 12:50so I didn't know like this. Super Bowl halftime show.
- 12:54But that was really because It wasn't really my thing, right.
- 13:01So I couldn't get into it but I didn't really hate it either.
- 13:08with that being said, Charlie Kirk who?
- 13:15Yes, I know. I know it seems like I'm oh he's
- 13:22shitting on July Couric, I promised you that it is for
- 13:26good. Reason.
- 13:31Now I try Kirk made a tweet that.
- 13:36Let me see if I can pull up here.
- 13:46Let's see here. Scrolling scrolling scrolling.
- 13:53Let's see. Okay, here we are.
- 14:27Apologies for the dead air. so, try Kirk The esteemed leader of
- 14:38the, you know, conservatively youth movement, you know where
- 14:44the millennial conservative conservatives, whatever you want
- 14:47to call him. The talking head, who runs
- 14:50turning point. And I like I said, I know I
- 14:53should enjoy Kirk a lot, but it's It's for reasons like this
- 14:58ladies and gentlemen. He tweeted out during the Super
- 15:05Bowl after the halftime show. He said, The NFL is now League
- 15:12of sexual Anarchy. This halftime show should not be
- 15:15allowed on. Television. okay and I quote we
- 15:24did that as those of you watching can see and I said,
- 15:28sexual Anarchy, sexual Anarchy kind of like the TPO USA parties
- 15:33in West Palm right now, folks let me explain something to you
- 15:42about Charlie Kirk And this is a, this is a weird thing that
- 15:47the the kind of the right has gotten into the last few years
- 15:53that I don't really get and I don't really understand.
- 15:59You know, it's the it's this whole idea of, you know, the
- 16:04both the far left and the far right.
- 16:07I have gone into this whole kind of Purity spiral over sexuality.
- 16:16and my whole thing simply put is, you know, as As a kind of
- 16:23conservative libertarian Taryn, I would say that my viewpoint as
- 16:31I've stayed in on this show before is that as long as?
- 16:37You know, you and your partner or partners are two consenting
- 16:41adults, nothing I was is going on, you know, that harms either
- 16:49of you. And as long as you're not
- 16:50involving children, We do you do you basically?
- 16:56That's kind of my take on it. As far as policy goes, you know,
- 17:01as far as politics goes right just you know don't be stupid.
- 17:08Don't harm anyone but really just Live and Let Live, right?
- 17:15I wouldn't have a problem with Charlie Kirk's view on this so
- 17:18much if he were consistent, right?
- 17:22But the re the reality is this is the same guy, right?
- 17:28Who has an organization Turning Point USA, which admittedly
- 17:34caters to college kids and whatnot. but a lot of their
- 17:38marketing and a lot of them memes, you know, revolves around
- 17:43like, you know, having memes of like, you know, gorgeous, you
- 17:48know, buxom, blond women, you know, and featured in their
- 17:54memes and in their promotional materials and You know, for a
- 18:00long time, they they had Tommy of LeRon come and speak and
- 18:05whatnot at their events. And yeah, I mean, I suppose one
- 18:09could argue that, you know, Tommy lehren is you know,
- 18:15suddenly a voice in the conservative movement but let's
- 18:18not kid ourselves. You know, Tommy al-arian is a
- 18:23very attractive woman and You know, I'm not saying that you
- 18:31got a job completely because we're Lux but let's just say
- 18:34that you know her looks definitely played a part in her
- 18:38and getting you know to where she is and media.
- 18:45Along with a lot of these other, you know, commentators woman
- 18:52commentators on the right. Sorry it's just you know that's
- 18:59just fact and I don't begrudge them, this islet of that either
- 19:04but you know, mister mister Purity spiral sexual Anarchy
- 19:10over here, you know, he brings on all these, you know,
- 19:15Attractive women, you know, to promote turning more your essay
- 19:19and why not, right? But then, you know, the other
- 19:23thing with turning point is You know, I've heard stories and
- 19:28it's, it's fairly common knowledge.
- 19:31Now that the winter was Palm Beach events that they have
- 19:35during the winter there, you know, people hook up because
- 19:41it's a bunch of horny college students, you know, fraternizing
- 19:45with each other and You know, yes they may be conservative but
- 19:51you know, here's the here's the thing.
- 19:56You know, a horny college, kid is still horny, college kid, no
- 20:00matter what side of the spectrum.
- 20:03They're on it and I don't care. You know who you are.
- 20:08It's just that those of us facts, right?
- 20:13And you can say not me but come on, everyone knows and You know,
- 20:24so I don't really believe that Charlie Kirk was actually upset
- 20:29by the, you know, Super Bowl halftime show this year.
- 20:36I think it was just saying that because his, you know, his
- 20:41donors who are, you know, pretty conservative and You know, those
- 20:47donors who are conservative Boomers and are into that whole
- 20:51sort of sexual Purity thing. I think they were the ones who
- 20:56were kind of expecting him to, you know, tweet that.
- 21:01But but I do want to kind of click on this because Because
- 21:12the memes that came out of this are great.
- 21:19Right. Especially this one at the top
- 21:22here. If you're watching this just
- 21:24because you are offended, doesn't mean you are, right?
- 21:32I mean, people are just people both on the left and the right
- 21:37are just shitting on him in the tweets.
- 21:45Oh yeah. And then here, as you can See
- 21:52ya. They've got I forgot about this.
- 21:56They brought out Kimberly Guilfoyle and she was doing like
- 22:00some, you know, really kind of sexualized dance, you know, they
- 22:05had they had the fireworks out for her, right, as you guys in
- 22:10the video, can can see here And by the way, Kimberly Guilfoyle
- 22:21is definitely hot. There's no question.
- 22:26I would definitely if you want to know the truth.
- 22:30Oh hell yes. I would especially since like, I
- 22:36think she's 40 now and if you've stopped around the show for long
- 22:43enough, you know that yours truly I do tend to like MILFs
- 22:49and why not times but yeah. More more memes of just Charlie
- 23:04Kurt getting roasted. So, Oh, and I love this.
- 23:11So change the channel. But also, where was your outrage
- 23:14at our former first lady? Exactly.
- 23:21You know, so people were just grabbing on trial Kirk as he
- 23:25rightly deserved. Milani cannot can also get it
- 23:33even now she still can. so yeah, you know another Purity spiral
- 23:45from You know, mr. Tommy Kirk, what are you going
- 23:50to do, huh? And this is just, you know, get
- 23:57another example of absurdity. Well and then you had some of
- 24:02the left like out there to the the, you know, they actually
- 24:07saying it wasn't, you know, political enough, right?
- 24:11They didn't focus enough on black lives matter and whatnot.
- 24:15Despite the fact that they had the black national anthem they
- 24:20had You know, they did have like a slight mention of black lives
- 24:27matter during the Super Bowl. I think Eminem took a knee or
- 24:31something and you know, here's the thing.
- 24:34I you know, do I agree with what a sizing, the Super Bowl.
- 24:42No, I don't and that's kind of my ultimate why?
- 24:46I wish I wish they would leave all this stuff bahat behind.
- 24:53But I'm at the point out where like, you know, Sports in the
- 24:59Super Bowl has just been politicized. so much now that
- 25:04like, You just have to pick to pick your battles and, you know,
- 25:11for me it's just like, well, I can either enjoy the game.
- 25:17You know, enjoy it for what it is or I can just endlessly bitch
- 25:23and moan about how, you know, it's just become a big social
- 25:29justice fast, right? So, you know, I chose to just
- 25:36enjoy the, the game and enjoy the company of my neighbors and
- 25:40whatnot and enjoy the commercials commercials.
- 25:45Oh, that was the Of thing. You know, the people were like,
- 25:50oh, there were so many. Crypto commercials.
- 25:54Yeah, that's because coinbase had a commercial.
- 25:56And then, there was another trading website that had a
- 26:01commercial as well during the Super Bowl. and, I tried to scan
- 26:11that QR code like everyone else did, but I guess the site
- 26:14crashed for coinbase and I guess they were running like a thing.
- 26:20Where like if you signed up, you got $15 worth of crypto currency
- 26:26of your choice. I might have to have mr.
- 26:28Whiskey back on to find out what that's all about. so, Yeah,
- 26:41overall overall, the Super Bowl was bad.
- 26:47I live in the fact that neither my teams played, you know, it
- 26:53was just fun and I can't really say too much more about that.
- 26:59So, so yeah, I think You know, the Super Bowl went well,
- 27:14baseball is going to be starting back up here soon.
- 27:18I imagine, uh, I don't, I, I must admit, I don't really like
- 27:22I follow football, but I don't really follow sports ball in
- 27:26general, as they. you know, call it so that maybe like a segment
- 27:38for wet sandwich to comment on if she ever decides to pop up on
- 27:47a podcast. but, Anyway, I do. Yeah and let's see what else we
- 27:56have here. Now, at this point, ladies and
- 28:00gentlemen, We don't know if we're going to be, you know, at
- 28:05this time when I'm recording this podcast, we are not.
- 28:09Yeah, war with Russia, but it seems like we could be going to
- 28:15war with Russia. At any given time.
- 28:26I know, I know that they've got troops.
- 28:30Mobile. Russia has troops mobilized on
- 28:34the ground and In Ukraine. And it looks like we may be
- 28:42sending troops over there soon. Personally, I don't think we
- 28:49should. We should really go.
- 28:53I think just stay out of the conflict and let's also not
- 28:57start. Well, it's also not start a i
- 29:01conflict if we can avoid it, we seem to do that a lot though, in
- 29:06the last 20 years, we seem to go into as the, don't lie need us
- 29:11in their start conflicts and then just leave and then we have
- 29:15things like Afghanistan all over again and it's just weird and
- 29:24you know, my thing is we should stay out.
- 29:29I don't know if Biden is going to allow us to stay out.
- 29:31I hope he does because like I said, we don't really need to be
- 29:36there but You know, I at this time we are not going into
- 29:44Ukraine to fight Russia. I hope that stays say stays the
- 29:51you know the same way and at this point, we are just you
- 30:03know, pray that the the troops here, stay home and stay safe
- 30:08and then nothing happens and that Biden.
- 30:15Remains somewhat coherent component.
- 30:18Because jeez, I would hate to have him as a wartime Commander.
- 30:24Well, this whole thing gets off the ground. but, Animate folks,
- 30:33that'll do it for today's Thursday show.
- 30:37I really don't have anything else to talk about.
- 30:40I might I might be getting a guest on On the Saturday show
- 30:49that will be nice if we can do that and looking at getting
- 30:52Belen from Ian oslc to. I join us.
- 30:58So You know it, what when we get that going more, you know, and
- 31:05should be pretty good. But in the meantime folks, I
- 31:08want to thank you all for, you know, tuning in and watching and
- 31:13listening to the podcast. And I'll see you guys on
