(upbeat music) - Hello guys and welcome to the show. Happy Monday, we have much to discuss. Today we're going to be talking about the ladies on the view. Sunny Hostin, Whoopi Goldberg, crazy as per usual, but they've got some interesting hot takes when it comes to this upcoming election and particularly when it comes to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Plus, in France, we've apparently, we've been having a crazy time in France. We're going to try to break this down and talk about what's happened recently with the French elections, but we're telling it from our American perspective. So bear with me, bear with me. We're going to be leaning on you guys a lot, especially our French viewers and talking and having that discussion. Plus KFC, Canada and Ontario, Canada in particular, apparently going halal. And again, this is going to expand on our earlier conversations about immigration. I tweeted out this weekend that the mass immigration that we're experiencing in the West right now is going to be the downfall of the West and I stand by that statement. Even though in France, Zebelkomit Raycees for saying that. Is that French accent? I don't think so. (laughs) - That was perfect as far as I could sound. - Social day. (laughs) All right. And, you know, of course, since he just piled him on the screen. We've got Taylor and Nashville. - Yeah. (speaking in foreign language) We're here to talk about all of the continuing world politics because you know that your Gen Z female 24-year-old is the world expert on all of these matters. - Oh, yeah. - But it's happening. It's crazy and this conversation started on Friday and I'm here for more of it because this is some of the most important stuff going on in the world right now. - 100% of lots to say about this. And first, let's get into what's going on at The View. We constantly bring up The View on this channel because these ladies, these ladies have some hot takes. Y'all know I was once interviewed to be a little, like, guest spot on The View/one of their conservative panelists, which are few and far between when it comes to the show. And I would've eaten these ladies up, especially on these videos that we're about to watch. Whoopi Goldberg, in reference to Joe Biden, says she doesn't care. You know, she's all in on Joe. She doesn't even care if he poops his pants. Yes, guys, that's Whoopi Goldberg. Let's hear it from the horse's mouth. - I'm just gonna have my two cents 'cause I wasn't hearing the day that y'all talked about it. I don't care if he's pooped his pants. I don't care if he can't put a sentence together. Show me he can't do the job. And then I'll say, okay, maybe it's time to go. Now, he had a bad night the first time that he went out and debated with Kamala Harris. And everybody wanted him to quit that and say, "You can't talk to women like this, "and you're doing this wrong, you're doing that wrong." He came back, said, "You know what, I got it," and gave four years. So, yeah, I have poopy days all the time. All the, I step in so much pool you can't even imagine. (audience laughs) Now, I'm not running the world, but I don't know anybody who doesn't step in stuff at some point. So, I'm just simply saying, yeah, there are two debates. And if he can't do what he needs to do for the second debate, I'll join any crew that says get rid of him. But loyalty to me, if you are doing the job, I might not like everything you're doing. I don't like it all, but I'm gonna stand behind you like those guys stand behind the guy who should've been the person people were talking about, saying, yeah, Biden had a bad day, but this guy couldn't tell the truth if it split his lip. But nobody said that, but I'm sorry, Anna said that, I believe, or something, she's not quite as colorful as I am. - But in the question now-- - Give me a chance. (audience laughs) - The question now is because lots of Democrats are coming out and saying, you know, oh, find somebody else. But when we try to do that with DT, this is my new way of just describing him. When we said, listen, he shouldn't be on the ballot. And I said, no, no, no, he was, people chose him. We can't take him off the ballot. Well, I don't understand why anybody thinks it's gonna be any easier to take Biden off the ballot. - All right, you know, what an interesting hot steak. Hot like a pile of poop from a patient with dementia. You know, and here I thought the worst thing about Whoopi Goldberg was having to hear her. Apparently it's having to smell her because she is also pooping her pants and stepping in poop. Obviously she was trying to find a tactful way to defend Joe Biden and to say that everybody has bad days. As many on the left have been doing since the now infamous debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, but my goodness, can we just admit what's actually happening here? Joe Biden is not fit to serve and he certainly not fit to lead. And the fact that they can't just come out and say that just says it all because they are willing to try to pull the wool over your eyes with these new iterations of Joe Biden's bad night and waiting to see if he comes back in the second debate. When we all know damn well what we watched, I don't care if you're left leaning, centrist, right leaning, unaffiliated, we all watched the same thing if you saw the debate. And it was two political candidates, one of whom is most definitely unfit to serve this country. And that one wasn't Donald Trump, okay? So let's be clear about that. And I even saw what CNN, MSNBC, one of these left leaning new channels that was actively fact checking Joe Biden during the debate. He lied many a time, but he's so not there that I don't even know that he's actively making the choice to lie. I think he's just spitting out the words as they pop into his head. You know what I mean? And I think we all watched that happen. And we've been watching it happen for quite some time, but now the media is sort of turning the corner on Joe Biden and saying, oh well, looks like he's had a bad day. I don't know if he is fit to serve. I don't know if you guys watch the most recent interview that he did with George Stephanopoulos, where they bronzed him up and caked him with makeup and sat him down and George Stephanopoulos played this game of asking him the hardball questions, right? The hardball questions that we've been asking ourselves, I don't know since Biden was elected the first time, but now suddenly it's okay for the press to ask Joe Biden these questions. Are you fit to serve? Will you undergo cognitive testing? What happened on the night of the debate? And Joe Biden sits there with a straight face because somebody told him to have a straight face behind the camera, Joe Biden holding a cone of ice cream for him for when he's done. He told you, oh, I just had a cold. Oh, you know, I was tired. Life's been hard being the president. I had a bad night. We all know that wasn't a bad night. Okay? In fact, it was more likely a bad morning. They probably woke him up from his new sleep schedule an hour before he went out on that stage because they didn't want to have him sundown in front of the American public. So it was a bad morning for Joe Biden likely. That's what we're dealing with in this country. And the fact that this is happening right before our eyes and we're watching all these huge media outlets and people who sort of shape American culture, whether we like it or not, Wolfie Goldberg is one of those people, say this stuff, should tell you how willing they are to lie to you. And I don't know. They're parading Joe Biden around now and everybody's talking about panic and not knowing what's going to go on. It feels as though they're throwing him under the bus, although we do have some stragglers here, like Wolfie Goldberg that say no matter what, they're going to defend this man, a man who has been in government for what, nearly 50 years now, doing jack shit. In fact, the only shit he is doing is apparently in his pants. According to Wolfie Goldberg. - Wow. - I'm sorry, guys. - You're on it today. That's a good ending to that little soliloquy there, but I just can't believe Wolfie had, you know, she was like, I didn't get to talk about this last time you guys talked about it. So I wanted to add my two cents. You had how many days and what you came up with was even if he poops his pants or I don't care if he poops his pants and all these little poop references. That's like you had days to come up with something to say and that's your take. It was kind of weeks off, but it's been interesting to watch the media kind of, just be on its back foot over the last couple of weeks since the debate happened in the immediate aftermath. You saw people from like young Turks to the panelists on CNN, like Van Jones to even MSNBC, kind of like all of a sudden they shifted the narrative and they were before leading up to the debate. Oh, he's so sharp. He's never been sharper. Biden's really, you know, on his game. He's reciting, you know, Shakespeare and, you know, just being all very impressive and all these back to our rooms and you guys will see. And then as soon as the debate happens, everyone's kind of like, we're screwed, we need to get them out of here, but we'll blah. And now it's almost like we're somewhere in between as the narrative has shifted. I feel like we're seeing behind the curtain a little bit as the marching orders are no longer clear because whenever everyone's interests were aligned between the media, the Democratic Party and the Biden administration, then everyone knew what the beat of the drum was and knew what to say and what the narrative is that we need to uphold. But now that the Biden administration is no longer able to guarantee that Biden can uphold this pretense that he's okay. You're seeing that fracturing and you're getting mixed messages from the media, Democratic Party was like, who's our person? We're not sure all this stuff's happening. And there's no consistency and you're getting a rare glimpse of honesty into everything. So it's an interesting time to kind of pay attention to what all these different pundits are saying and kind of seeing where they're hedging their bets or placing their bets, I should say, with this new evolution of what's happening with Biden. - Yeah, it's kind of crazy to watch 'cause I'm like, we know if the media consistently does anything, it's playing games. They're playing games, they're playing on our downfall. They're the ops 100% of the time almost. And I'm like, okay, if they're now rolling out these stories, criticizing Joe Biden, saying he needs to go undergo cognitive testing, saying they don't know if he's fit to be the candidate that represents the left in this next election, then what's really happening behind the scenes? Like, what is the actual plan that they have going on? 'Cause I don't think this is some like non-strategic move that they're making in suddenly outing this guy and parading him out in the media. He did some interviews recently with some woman. And I guess they had her on the news, I think the day or day or two after to talk about interviewing Joe Biden after the debate and asked her, you know, did the White House review the questions you were going to ask him before he came for the interview and she said outright, yeah, they sent me the questions and I sent them to them for review and they let me know which one of the questions they felt was the best to be asking him. And I think they picked four of the questions that she created. So an outright on the news, they're saying, okay, well, if the American public is concerned about cognitive testing and wanting to test Joe Biden to see if he's all there, isn't it a little weird that you guys are reviewing the questions before he goes in for the interview, like, what do you mean? And if y'all don't think this has been happening for the entire duration of his presidency, I don't know what to tell y'all. The amount of cue cards and graphs and pictures being held out in the audience for this man to read is gotta be unimaginable at this point 'cause we've been talking about this for so long. On top of that, we're watching him fall downstairs, walk off in the middle of like press briefings, shake hands with people and then suddenly not know where he is, having to be guided by secret service, a million, sniffing the children, which we need to get into that right now. But we've seen a million things from this man, that point in the direction of just downhill, the direction of downhill. And here suddenly they wanna tell us that they're concerned too. There's something going on. There's something going on. - Did you see that thing I sent you about how they made in his packet for preparation of his speech? There's like a picture of a podium and the hallway that he has to walk down, which is like literally from backstage to the podium. They're like, walk to podium, turn right, you know? Give speech, read off prompter. Like every single thing has to be broken down. It's just sad, but it's not just the decline. You know, to Lupey's point and to your point a minute ago about just the honesty, like in the debate, I had pulled up this little list of lies that were told by Biden and he perpetrated the suckers and losers quote lie, very fine people lie. Hitler did good things lie about, those are all things that Trump said. He again suggested his son died in Iraq. He said he kept insulin at $15, which is not the right price that it was capped at. He said, I kept Medicaid drug expenses at $200. Trump said he would be a dictator, that's a lie. No soldiers died on my watch, that's a lie. Hello Afghanistan. Trump said, inject bleach, that's a lie. Border troll endorsed me, that's a lie. So this defense that you often hear on the left as well, you know, at least he's honest. And let's just, we all know, we can be honest with ourselves. We're not dealing with a set of honest political candidates. We're not dealing with the cream in the crop in terms of moral purity on either side of the aisle. So it's more about outcomes. And I guess that's where the decline becomes more relevant because the senility factor is very huge. If you have two dishonest people, but one of them is, you know, and one of them is not. Okay, well, that might be relevant to our decision here, let alone getting into the actual platform positions, but I just had to read that list of lies because that talking point is just, I'm not here for it. - Yeah, then they say like, okay, Trump's the liar, Trump's the big liar or whatever. And then this like, the leaked video comes out of him talking to like some people at the golf course, which I gotta pull this up so we can watch it and actually discuss it. 'Cause I think this is a testament to actually his outright honesty, even one secretly being filmed. Let's check it out. - He gave me so much. How did I do with the debate the other night? - Oh, fantastic. - He's got all broken down pile of credit. - Yeah, it's a bad guy. He just quit, you know, he's quit in the rest. - Is that right? - Yep, I got him out of the rest. And that means we have Kamala. I think she's gonna be better. She's so bad, she's so pathetic. - It's so nice. - It's just so fucking bad. - I just can't imagine that. Can you imagine that guy with Dylan with Putin and the president of China who's a fierce person, he's a fierce man, a very tough guy. And they see him, they probably, they can't, but they just announce he's probably quitting. - Thank you. - Yeah, just keep knocking him out, huh? - Thank you. - Hey, let me say one thing, where's the lie? Where's the lie? Where was the lie told? He might be crass, he might be blind, might be a little bit too far, where was the lie? And the fact that he's just saying that to some random guys that he ran up on the golf course should tell you just about everything you need to know. And just compare the two candidates. I don't care if you think this is a lesser of two evils, elections or whatever the hell people are saying these days, just compare it and ask yourself, where was the lie? Okay, 'cause I didn't see none out of here or not. (laughs) - I wonder if whoever leaked that video was pro or against Trump. Like if you thought you were hurting him with that, I don't think that, wow, you were successful because I think that to most people is just like, totally unsurprising what he said and if anything might be a little bit more endearing and confirming that, okay, you know, that is what he thinks. - Yeah, and I'm like, okay, is he actually convinced that Biden is out of the race and where did he get that information? Like what's going on? He's giving that information out to people because Biden is doubling down on the fact that he is not getting out of this race. In the interview with George Stephanopoulos when asked about cognitive testing, he says every day in my life is a cognitive test. - That was his answer. So the answer is no, he's not going to undergo cognitive testing because he's just going to lean on the politician's answer that every single day of his life is a cognitive test. And you know what, no doubt because when you put a patient with dementia out on stage and tell him to read a teleprompter and answer questions and talk to the press, that is most definitely a cognitive test. What George Stephanopoulos didn't ask is whether or not he passed it. And that's the unfortunate part. And this is why you get all these politicians' answers to the questions where he gets to skirt the actual issue and not be for real. And I guess we'll call this an accomplishment. Now, the alternative to Joe Biden or at least one of them is Kamala Harris. Kamala Kackling Harris, she could be up there, you know? Up there as in, she'll be on stage, not up there as in anybody supports her because I don't even think people on the left really like Kamala Harris. But here's what Sunny Hostin of the View had to say about Kamala. - For second, because I've been so conflicted all morning as most of you know, you know, I think it would be naive. And I think it would be dishonest for us to say that this president that we are looking at is the same person that we looked at in 2020. I think it would be dishonest for us to look at him and his performance now and his performance across the board, really, not in terms of policy and what he's gotten done, but when he speaks and his appearances. This is the same man that was Barack Obama's vice president for eight years. And it would be dishonest for us to look at his record as a senator, which is a darn good record and say that that is the same man that we are looking at today. And that concerns me, okay? But what I will say is they say behind every great man is a great woman. Kamala Harris, as Anna said, is prepared, she's ready, she's presidential. - She's got the wrong woman. Behind Joe Biden, if anybody, is Jill Biden. No, sorry, Dr. Jill Biden, because she earned that title. - She spoke at the Essence Festival this weekend. I think we have a clip, I wanna show it very quickly. - You have the former president who is running to become president again, who has openly talked about his admiration of dictators and his intention to be a dictator on day one, who has openly talked about his intention to weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies. - Where'd they get this clip of Kamala? Because last I saw her, you think you fell out of a coconut tree? You exist. - Do you guys know what clip I'm talking about? You have to know what I'm talking about. It's super viral on TikTok and Arrow, because she's insane. I'll pull it up at some point, but well, let's keep watching this view clip. - Who has talked about being proud of taking from the women of America a most fundamental right to make decisions about your own body? - Okay, she's presidential. She's ready, she can assume it. So if he cannot complete a four year term, we know that we are protected. I will say this, I am uncomfortable with him stepping down because I don't know that this country will vote for a black woman. If this country could not vote for Hillary Clinton, one of the most decorated and successful politicians and people in the world, I don't know that Kamala Harris can be a convicted felon. One more thing that I will say is that Republicans are clearly scared about Kamala Harris. They know that as a senator, she represented one in eight Americans. They know that as Attorney General of California, she ran one of the largest law departments in the country. They know that she was the first African American woman to be the District Attorney of San Francisco. That is a hard thing to do. She's a three-pete winner. What we do know is in terms of the Supreme Court, which the media is not talking enough about, the Supreme Court said that Donald Trump, if elected, becomes a king, they give him total immunity. Sotomayor said orders the Navy SEAL Team to six, to assassinate a political rival, immune, organizes a military-descending coup to hold on to power, immune, takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon, immune, immune, immune, immune, immune. She also then went to say, the president is now a king above the law. So guess what, folks? I am uncomfortable with the state of where Joe Biden is, but I am comfortable with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris versus a convicted. So can I agree on something? - Oh, I love that. I love what's really interesting about this back and forth. And I'll be quite forward in the Supreme Court ruling about the immunity, and I don't know how I feel about it. And I'm quite honestly haven't read enough into it to tell you exactly how I feel about it. There's part of me that goes, okay, well, nobody is above the law, and that includes the president of the United States. I don't know how we can allow for something like that to happen. The other part of me says, I watched that whole kangaroo court thing that just happened in New York City against Donald Trump, where he got 34 convictions, and we saw the justice system weaponized against a former president. And if that's the reality that we're living in, then maybe there needs to be some protection set in place. And that's why this whole decision is being pushed through. But let's leave that aside for a second. The idea that Kamala Harris will not get votes because she's black, police. It's like when Meghan Markle runs around and says the royal family hates me because I'm black. I'm like, be so for real right now. First of all, I think they don't like you 'cause they don't like you. I think they don't wanna keep Kamala Harris 'cause you're not that charismatic. And I think so much so that Kamala Harris has largely stayed out of the limelight and her vice presidency. And they've tried their best, I think, not to really usher her out and put her in front of too many crowds because you just don't know. As much as you don't know what Joe Biden is gonna say, you really don't know what Kamala Harris is gonna say. And that's gotta be even scarier because at least with Joe Biden, there's a medical affliction that you guys can point to and say, okay, well, I can see the diagnosis there. With Kamala Harris, it's a little bit like, what is going on? Why is she saying you think you fell out of a coconut tree? And I have to find that clip so that you guys can watch it right now. But she's an oddball and she's not too likable, not in her history as vice president, not as a DA, not really ever has this woman been likable. And I think also, if you take a little bit of a dive into Kamala Harris' past, especially into that closet, skeletons are gonna pop out at you. And they're gonna have a lot to say about that woman. And because she sort of sat in the back and they sort of ran with this idea of, oh my gosh, the first woman vice president, she sort of was above criticism and nothing really came out about her. Nobody really spoke about her. They just ran on woman, woman, black, black. This is so great. Joe Biden did it. But I have a feeling if she's at the forefront, like this is the person who's gonna take on this position and carry on the torch, we're gonna find out some stuff about that woman. I almost said, I don't know what, but some stuff. - Do you remember, was it Tulsi Gabbard, I think, during the primary of, was it 2016, where Kamala was running and they were running on her record as DA that Sunny just cited. And Tulsi just torpedoed her entire campaign by calling her out for laughing, I think during an interview about how she used to smoke pot when she was throwing the book at people as DA for smoking pot, which also probably speaks to why people and black people would not want to vote her and like her, although she does say she's out here on the streets and they not like us as we saw in our show last week. But yeah, if she doesn't get enough vote, it's not gonna be because she's a black woman, it's because she's unlikable, she's hypocritical and doesn't appeal even to black people, which is just very ironic. - And I wish I could show you that BET sketch that she did with Taraji P. Henson, but you guys are gonna have to look it up 'cause they'll copyright strike us on this channel and they did, so for showing that, so we had to cut it out. But here's her little, you think you fell out of the coconut tree? - My mother used to, she would give us a hard time sometimes and she would say to us, "I don't know what's wrong with you young people. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? Do you exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you?" My mother used to-- - What the hell? (laughing) And I get what she's trying to say, I get what she's trying to say, but this has become like a viral TikTok serum because of all like the nonsense that she spews out. I remember we watched a video of Kamala Harris, just like sitting at a table introducing herself at some meeting that she was going to be at. She said, "My name is Kamala, I have brown hair. I'm in a blue jacket, my pronouns are she, her." And this is how you introduce yourself. I guess for the left, you have to state the name and the pronouns and describe what you look like for those who are visually impaired and all the different hoops you have to jump through. I'd be curious, I would love nothing more than to watch this woman debate Donald Trump. I would love nothing more. And you can give her a whole month of runway to like prep every single day with somebody who like spouts out the answers to her questions and makes her play back and forth with the answers and all that. Give her as much time as she needs. And I would love to see that debate take place. Please. - I gotta mention one more thing that went viral recently. Have you seen this clip of her saying, we can be what we want to be unburdened by what has been or whatever. She has this little line unburdened by what has been over and over again. I just put it at the top of our doc if you wanna pull it up. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's watch her. - And unburdened by what has been, you know? What can be unburdened by what has been? What can be unburdened by what has been? What can be unburdened by what has been? What can be unburdened by what has been? - What we can see, what we believe can be unburdened by what has been. - Okay, hold on. Let's think about, I really wanna think about this and really break down the phrase. Okay, what can be unburdened by what has been? Wouldn't it be the opposite? Wouldn't it be that what has been will be unburdened by what can be? Please make this make sense to me. I'm genuinely asking, I'm genuinely asking 'cause wouldn't it be like the past of America, the transgressions of America, what has been can be unburdened. We can unburden this by what can be. Wouldn't that be the actual way to say it, but she's saying what can be unburdened by what has been? - Yeah, I don't know. It's just the fact that you have this line that you think sounds so smart and say it in every possible situation. And it's also just like to your point, orally phrased to where no one really knows what you mean. It just kind of sounds like maybe, it sounds like it would sound smart, but it actually doesn't sound smart. It's kind of like those old profound but not statements. Like wherever you go, there you are. It's kind of like, you're not saying anything. You're just kind of making a, saying an idiom or whatever, but not taking us anywhere. - And she says it over and over, which you know, it's like she's not having original thoughts. She just has these little like pillars she can lean on to throw in. It reminds me, okay, this is gonna be a deep cut. When Lady Gaga was doing a Star is Born and that movie came out with Bradley Cooper and she was doing the press tour for that movie, she would use the same line almost every single interview she did in talking about Bradley Cooper. And I've got to, I've got to find it. Hold up, we got the clip. We got the clip. (laughing) - There can be a hundred people in the room and 99 don't believe in you, but I had this one incredible talent with me. There can be a hundred people in the room and 99 don't believe in you and he just made one to believe in you and that was him. - You can have a hundred people in the room that are watching you and 99 don't believe in you and one does and that was him. So, you know, there could be a hundred people in the room and 99 don't believe but all it takes is one. - You know what can be unburdened by what has been. I'm gonna start doing that. I'm gonna start planting a phrase. Every other video on this channel and see if you guys can figure out what it is. (laughing) And we're gonna put together a short compilation of me just saying the same phrase as if it's like the most profound thing that has ever come out of my mouth. Now be so thrilled right now. None of this has to do with Kamala Harris being black. There's a ton of reasons why Hillary Clinton didn't exactly have her heyday during her election cycle. And I think there will be a million reasons why if Kamala Harris were to do the same she wouldn't have her heyday either because are we all watching the same? I just hate this whole idea that we're not all taking in the same information. Like we're not all watching the same people. The fact that I can watch Joe Biden or Kamala Harris do a debate or speak to the American public and see all these things. And then I can turn the news channel and hear some complete just switch up of how somebody else claims to have seen it is beyond me. But if there's one person that's gonna do that it's Sunny Hostin. We'll finish out the clip here and see what else she's got to say. (audience applauding) - One of the things I just said was, one of the things you just said was that you're uncomfortable, that it's dishonest to say that it's the same man we saw in 2020. I don't think anybody's saying that. Joe Biden isn't saying that. Joe Biden is the first one that says I'm slower. I don't debate as well as I do. I did, I'm 81 years old now. - It seems worse than that. - Okay, but he's the first one to say he's not the same. Just look at my record of accomplishment. - But he can't litigate the case against Trump the way that we saw the vice president there. That is the difference. And there's a reason Donald Trump is actually not out there shouting about the debate. He knows that Joe Biden will lose to him. He is afraid of vice president here. - Give me, he's afraid of Kamala Harris. Who in their right mind is afraid of Kamala Harris? I know she's out there in these streets. So we might have something to contend with, but who is afraid of Kamala Harris? And you know what? I don't like this idea, the way they're talking about Joe Biden. Oh, you know, at least he's honest about the fact that he's slower. You know, if a candidate comes up to you and says, yeah, I'm incapable of taking on this position, yet I'm going to do it anyways. Are you going to commend him for his honesty and applaud him and say, you know, at least he's telling me the truth here? - Listen, folks, I put my pants yesterday and I still got out on that debate stage. Are you supposed to applaud him for letting you know that he is not fit to serve? - Please. - Yeah, that's why you're just morally responsible for deciding to run, even though you know you're not fit to, which that's even more reprehensible and more worthy of malign, just if you are knowingly and willfully still going for it. So yeah, that would be a reason to depart from him, not to support him more. - Dude, I got an ad on YouTube the other day. I'm trying to watch videos, Obama pops up. If you give $5 to the campaign, you can save this election or, you know, Joe Biden pops up and he goes, listen, let's cut the malarkey. If you are a candidate, this new rule, I'm gonna pull a Bill of Mart new rule right now. If you are a candidate and your campaign ad starts with, let's cut the malarkey. I have a feeling you're too old to be running and you need to call it a quits and you need to go about your business and hang out with your wife and kids and just settle down into life. Let's cut the malarkey. That's might be my youth showing. I know I'm 24 and I don't know much about everything that's going on right now, but cut the malarkey. (laughs) I can't, okay, we're gonna move on. We're gonna move on from Joe Biden and we're gonna actually travel across the pond over to Europe and into France where some crazy elections have been going on. So on the 30th, they held some elections. It wasn't looking so great for the left, you know, the far right as they're calling them in France, which are supporters of Marine Le Pen were showing up and showing out, I mean, millions of voters. And this was the response, a small response, you know, I can't speak to the scale of this, but rioters taking to the streets in France. (crowd cheering) (crowd cheering) All right, guys. - Let's do hell! - What the hell is going on? Why do these countries look like third world countries and increasingly, I'm like seeing pictures from Los Angeles, looks like a third world country, it's LA. San Francisco, third world country, oh, it's just San Francisco. France, third world country, it's just France. I don't know what is going on, y'all, but people have lost their damn minds. Anyways, those were the elections that happened, the voting that happened on the 30th. The next week, they come back in. And during a week's time, 200 candidates from the left and the center, you know, coalitions in these elections decided to drop out. And CNN refers to this as political bargaining. They essentially said, okay, the right is, they're up and coming, people are voting for them. Clearly, they want some sort of change in France. We gotta do something about this. And the way that we'll reinforce our position on the left and the center is to drop all these candidates. So we're not splitting the vote 100,000 different ways. So they drop a ton of candidates. And now we get the news that the left ends up pulling in, the left and center, I guess we shall call them as they're now like in aggregate. And they've pulled ahead and Marine Le Pen is down. She is lost. Although she has taken up, I think more seats than the right has seen in a long time if we're even gonna call it the far right. And people are taking to the streets of France, celebrating particularly those on the left and in the center. And I'll show you a little video of what they have to say to Rebel News. We all know Rebel News is a very, as a right-leaning news organization. So they weren't going to be very well received on the streets really anywhere these days. But here's what some French people had to say about the elections. (speaking in foreign language) (speaking in foreign language) - We have love, we are celebrating, we have joy. And you, you have hatred, we are too strong. We won with middle fingers. Love that. Super cute. Lots of, you are racist. Go and get effed. Sweethearts. You lost. Ha ha, you lost. We are going to stay, we are staying. And look at all those flags. One French flag. I saw one French flag, of course, that very large one there in the center. It's interesting, obviously I'm coming at this from an American perspective. And when I see American news media referring to things as far right, immediately, a red flag is raised in my mind. And I know in Europe, far right and far left are viewed very differently. And then looking at the stances of Marie Le Pen, she's got a lot of stuff that I personally agree with. But I guess that makes me far right. She's advocating for a protectionist economy and blocking certain countries with tariffs and being able to keep control of what's happening in France. She's against this sort of globalist force that is constantly expanding in our world and particularly in the West right now. She's calling out the illegal immigration issue in France and saying we need to stop the mass immigration into our country. And we need to start mass-deporting people as well who are coming into our country, who are committing crimes, who are not contributing to our society, and who are harming the citizens who live here in France and pay taxes and are supporting our larger institutions and our culture. She happens to be pro-abortion and is for the protection of those who want to get abortions. She's secularist and believes strongly in a separation between church and states. And I could not agree with that more. So to me when I'm hearing it, of course, I don't think far right. And maybe that's US perspective and you and France will fill me in and say, we'll know by our metrics, this is far right. But for the most part, she seems, as Taylor put it, being quite socially pretty liberal, but just wants to protect France, wants to protect the people of France, wants to protect French culture. Yeah, I mean, that's what I understand of what's characterized as right-wing or far right in Europe tends to be just nationalist. And if you have any nationalist inklings, people are just extremely averse to that, or the media and the establishment will characterize you as this next coming of Hitler. But the part of this that is really strange to me is just the lack of proportionality, it seems, between the share of the vote and the number of seats in France's National Assembly that they got, it's very similar to what we saw in the parliamentary elections in the UK very recently as well. And that's, as an American, I don't know, that's just our ignorance across the pond here where we don't have all these fractured parties and coalitions and things like that. We have kind of the two-party system, which obviously has its own issues. But it's strange to me, I saw this graphic that Le Pen's party got something like, what, 39%, 37% of the vote. And yet they ended up with 178 seats, and whereas Macron's and his allies got 22% and ended up with more, I don't know, it's very strange to me. I don't know, they ended up with 142 Macron party, coalition got 178. So anyways, just strange to me how you have the largest share of the votes, but not the largest share of seats and representation that doesn't seem very democratic. - Yeah, you guys, the French who are watching right now are gonna have to fill us in on how exactly that works. And we saw when the whole EU elections happened, there was a crazy right-wing wave is what they called it. And all these left-leaning people were freaking out, saying the right are going to start and take over Europe and bring in their hatred and bigotry. But so far in the UK and in France, it seems like the left has managed to pull through and come forward. Now, how, I don't know, a lot of people are saying, "This is rigged, this is rigged." But again, that might be just our American lens and in some of the conversations we're having surrounding our elections. And I don't know all of how this works. So fill me in and let me know how this works, how it's capable, how this is capable of happening with the number of votes that they got. But I'll just say, and looking into Marie Le Pen, she sounds dope as well. She sounds like a badass. And I watched all these videos of like these young French girls who are supporters of Le Pen talking about why they support her. And it seems like, as I said in our last episode in immigration, immigration is at the forefront of so many people's minds here in the US, in the UK, in France, clearly, in places like Sweden and Norway, where immigrants are coming into the country illegally and just completely shifting the way of life of the people who are living there. And Marie Le Pen seems to have like, Stan, she stood pretty firm on wanting to keep France's integrity to its culture and not allowing people to just mass immigrate into the country and change the structure of what the country is. And you know what? I second that. And for me, whichever candidate is going to, you know, really enforce immigration policy in this country would be the one that I would be going for. And I saw this other clip of her. She was gonna do, you know, some political diplomacy and go around to talk to different world leaders. And in Lebanon, their grandmuftee, who was like their religious authority, she was meant to meet with this man. And the man requested that she wear a veil, meaning cover her hair in order to speak to him. She said, hell no, I'm not gonna cover my hair. The meeting's canceled. The meeting's canceled. I love that. You do not get to enforce your culture onto me and tell me what I need to do in order to commit an act of diplomacy and have a conversation with you. It's just not gonna work. And I would hope that that would be the same energy that she carries in to France. That's what she's saying with her words. I hope that she's doing the same with her actions because that's what's happening is people coming into your backyard and telling you how to run your home. And it's ridiculous to watch it happen. We saw the video in Norway of them doing meetings with the immigrants who had come into their country and primarily Muslim immigrants. And then they were telling the teacher, you need to give us time to adopt your culture. And you need to learn about our culture and learn to accept us if we're going to learn to accept you. Honey, you came into our country. Honey, you left your place to come here because you thought you were gonna be awarded better opportunities and a better culture. That requires the adoption of the culture. You don't get to come to France or the UK or Norway or Sweden or the US and leave somewhere that you didn't wanna be and bring everything that you left. I'm sorry, that's not the way it works. That's why I said it then and I'll say it now. If you need more time, spend the time back in your country. And then you can come back when you're ready to contribute. And by contribute, I mean, get a job and a good one and not committing crimes. So France took an L today. It took a massive L. The leftists might be taking to the streets and saying F you this and we're winning and we're staying. But guaranteed, even if the left stays in power in France, you're probably not staying 'cause your culture is going to be degraded. So do you understand that the L is really an L because you are bringing in your own downfall. The things that you love about French culture are not going to exist if you continue on the trajectory that you're on. So if you want to live in the Middle East, I guess, then yeah, you won and you're here to stay. But if this continues, guys, it's not gonna be good. It's not gonna be good. And look at the places that people are leaving and then imagine living in it. And then you'll find your answer in my opinion. - Yeah, and I mean, if these elections are telling us anything across Europe and we saw the European elections earlier this summer, the move toward nationalism is growing. And I think that is a reaction to the mass immigration that has swept the entire continent. And so even if in this election in particular, the left coalition has held on and they're gonna kind of continue on that trajectory. And we just saw in the UK, Labor Party is now in power and they're presumably going to continue in that direction. The nationalistic swell is still there and it's still rising. And it just feels like we're heading for a reckoning one way or another. I just saw the intellectual, I guess, I'll get sad on X was just quoted by Elon Musk talking about this stuff. And he's saying the only way out of this stuff is gonna be a lot of conflict. Like one of these sides is going to emerge victorious, but it is going to be ugly. And it does feel like that's where we're headed. - Yeah, there's just small things that pop up that remind me that this is the place that we're in. The whole story with I show speed and how he was treated in Norway versus Poland, I think was just blatantly evident what the issue is. Everything that we're experiencing at our southern border and all the stories that come out of the US with immigration may get blatantly clear what we're experiencing. This next story might sound to you like a small drop in the bucket, but it just shows you where you are headed. This is from Canada. Okay, so we're popping all over the West, Norway, Sweden, France, the UK, here in the United States, now in Canada, this is out of Ontario and we're going over to KFC, Kentucky Fried Chicken from the Colonel. This is a message from the Colonel himself. No, it's from I think the headquarters of the Kentucky Fried Chicken Canada Company that we can read here. It says KFC Canada is launching halal certified chicken in Ontario. So what they're going to do is take the following steps. They're adding like halal chicken products, which for those who practice Islam, this is how they eat if they're adherent to halal. There's like a list of rules of what you can and cannot have, things like no alcohol. You can't have pork. You're not supposed to eat birds of prey, I believe. There's a ton of other stuff going on there as well. We'll look up some rules to give you guys some more context there. But KFC is going to ensure that all chicken products are halal from this point on out. They're going to discontinue pork products at all their KFC locations, excluding those that are linked with Taco Bell. So you gotta hit up the ones linked to Taco Bell. And they're partnered with halal suppliers in order to maintain this new change and they've trained the Ontario staff and halal operational procedures. And of course, you know, in the name of inclusivity these days, totally get it. You know, you might have a very small Muslim population that you wanna cater to and make sure that they have products. But if you were going to a KFC and you wanted to get pork products, I don't know, bacon or anything like that. And that was what you were used to in going to KFC. Now they're gonna be getting rid of them at all their locations to cater to the new audience of people, to people who adhere to these rules. Now you might say, "Oh, you're making a big deal out of this." But just think about it, guys. Think about the preparation of this idea. And you guys know I'm a secularist at heart. So I wouldn't like it if any religious doctrine was now dictating the way that I'm living my life or who's being catered to based on their beliefs. I wanna make that abundantly clear. But this is just a sign of what we're dealing with. And when you're hearing these stories of the mass immigration and where the problem seems to lie, it's no coincidence that a lot of the issues seem to lie with those who have decided to move from the Middle East. And now in Ontario, Canada, you're getting a halal KFC and no more pork products. - Interesting. - And we know the Canadians love their Canadian bacon. But presumably on the chicken side. They don't even call it Canadian bacon there, right? They just call it bacon. I don't know. Retraining my ignorant Americans. But yeah, it's one thing to offer as an option. Like, okay, we're gonna provide kosher options on the menu or provide halal options on the menu of vegetarian options or whatever, but to make that sweeping change across almost all of Canada, I understand. I saw some of you on the chat saying that in the UK, it's been like that, which honestly doesn't surprise me. But yeah, it is indicative of like, either the demographics had in Canada have changed so much such that that is the financially astute decision to make or the political pressure and the ideological bent is such that KFC corporate just thinks that this is the right thing to do in order to pay under a certain audience or make themselves look good or if it has a marketing move or PR move or whatever it may be. But either way, it is certainly indicative of change, some kind of change, something different at work here. And it's related to, I mean, like you said, it's a very silly, it's not a kind of marginal thing, but we keep seeing stuff like this. And again, the immigration versus nationalism just feels like such a growing issue that is just boiling up and we're gonna continue to feel that pressure amount in the coming years, I think. - Yeah, it won't be so small after the 100th story, guys. It won't be, I'm calling it now. It won't be so small after the 100th story. And the interesting part, I was like reading up, I was like, okay, what are all the rules of being whole all outside of pork? And this says, you're prohibited from consuming animals not slaughtered properly or not slaughtered in the name of Allah. So now that you can't eat an animal that's not slaughtered in the name of Allah, so the chicken that you will be getting at KFC apparently will be slaughtered in the name of Allah, I need some of our Muslim listeners to confirm or deny whether or not that's correct if you are whole all eaters. - I don't know, I would feel this way about any religion ever. It's strange to me that this is now just something that's happening. And of course, they're a company, they get to make the choices that they make and they can do so and that is their prerogative as would be the case for any company functioning, but hmm, come again, what, what, anyways. - You know, thankfully announcing all of our chicken is prayed over and blessed from a Christian perspective before we serve it, which most people wouldn't be bothered by that experience. - All right. - Pretty Chick-fil-A Christian, whatever, but like for KFC to just come out and be like, we're serving only, you know, Muhammad blessed chicken is kind of interesting. - Yeah, I wonder if this will be enough chicken sales. I'll be curious to see on the other end of this, how this affects their business because I imagine it would bring you in a new customer base and it would largely not affect your previous customer base because like, if you don't believe in Allah, who cares whether or not the chicken was slaughtered in his name, I don't know, it's an interesting story. (laughing) We're gonna get into your super chats and hear from you guys on the stuff we've discussed today. - Yes, let's do that. - This is fascinating. - Really fascinating. - I've had a lot of spicy opinions throughout, so. - Hey, I'm down for it, let's hear it. - Starting us off is Alex, I'm Alex and I am an F boy, L-O-L, that's his name. It says, hey, they're A and T, see, I knew the Canadians were crazy, especially the ones that like going to certain clubs. L-O-L, we all know who they are just saying facts. - Wait, who, the clubs? What clubs? - I think he's-- - You don't know who. - I think that might be a side dig at his Canadian friend of his, but we're not gonna go too deep into it. - Got it, okay, got it. - AVJR says, hello, Abala, when are you going to do the dating show with your friend Risa? Have the men submitted their videos? - I can't wait for the fun laughs, that's a great question. - We do have submitted videos, which you guys can submit more. We do have submitted videos. It's gonna be a work in progress. We've had some bumps along the way as well, which I can't disclose yet on this program, but hopefully we have a dating show to show you and not too far from now. - And let me, I'll re-share the link real quick so you guys can apply if you want to see-- - Yeah, yeah. - I wanna post it in the chat now and I'll put it in the description. Apply for a dating show. All right, there it is, it's in the chat. So if you guys wanna send it to somebody, eligible bachelor, go ahead. Okay, Andre says, I don't know if that's from last week, J-S-O-L-O-3 says, did all of these lefties forget? We had four years of Trump before. They said he's gonna be a dictator and destroy democracy, but we're still here. People need to realize they're challenging our intelligence. - Yeah, I mean, they said the first thing. They're the same thing the first time that he was elected of all the different crazy rhetoric that we were getting out of it and then what ended up panning out virtually none of it. So yeah, I think they're gonna say as much as they can to convince people and sway people if it's gonna work. I don't know if it works now in the face of what we're seeing with Joe Biden and the cognitive decline and all the different lies and this and that, we deserve whatever's coming to us. If we cannot see ourselves out of this when it's so blatantly obvious, there's either something afoot, a conspiracy a play, or we deserve it. - Fresh Start says, hi, what happened with having Lee Alan Baker on the show was looking forward to that. Either way, love the show been watching daily for years. - She's a hard woman to pin down. I'll say that. (laughs) But yes, we were in talks to have her on the show, but she has seemingly slipped through the cracks. Maybe we'll revisit that if you guys wanna hear from her. I love her and good luck, Charlie. So I'm a Disney channel kid at heart. So I would love to speak to her, but we'll see. - But thank you for watching for years. Glad to have you. Purple Hills says, "Kamala's problem isn't necessarily that she's female. "It's because she doesn't take a job seriously. "Everything's a joke to her." - Well, Michelle Obama pulls higher and is way more liked. - Yeah, I mean, Michelle Obama's a black woman that is largely respected. Whether that's deserved, I don't know. I'm not too familiar with much of what she did while she was first lady, except for her. I did like her whole Get Out and Play campaign that she did with kids about wanting them to be healthy and get out and get exercise. I think that's much needed now. But yeah, she would be taken seriously 100%. And I don't think anybody would be running with this idea that, oh, she's a black woman, she can't do it. She, nobody's gonna respect her enough to vote for her. And I don't even know that Kamala Harris thinks anything is a joke. I think she lasts as a nervous tick because she is so incapable of speaking in front of people, which is so pivotal to taking on the position of president that I don't even know how she's even being considered. That's how nervous she is, is she just cackles. Imagine her meeting other world leaders and having that energy around them. I wouldn't trust the woman as far as I could throw her, let alone like respect the words that are coming out of her mouth, crazy. - Yeah, I mean, it sounds mean to say, but she literally is a DEI hire as vice president. And that's what is collapsing in on itself as like, it's just kind of delicious to see the irony of the Democrats putting forward this empty shell of a man in Joe Biden because they want their, you know, bureaucratic state to be really what's running everything. And then he becomes too senile, you know, at first that he was just senile enough for them to do what they want. And then that illusion falls. And then in order to replace that, they have their DEI candidate who was only put up for spurious reasons as well. They weren't putting anyone forward on the basis of merit or ideas or talent or anything like that. It was just this amalgam of strange circumstances and, you know, something that they felt like the machine could get into place. And now it's all kind of imploding and it's delicious to watch. - The left needs to learn that you need to do the proper combination of competence and affirmative action and puppetry. That's the proper combination of those three things. And you'll get there one day, babe. - All right, Alex's back says, are you a submissive GF question mark? If yes, please explain how your boyfriend brings the femininity out of you. And please explain the shutting off of your brain at the airport. - Shutting off of my brain at the airport. - I know that. That's about like those TikToks that girls post. That's like, oh, my boyfriend or my husband takes it over and I don't have to think about it. - Yeah, 100%. Am I submissive? I mean, I don't know. Like intellectually, definitely not. I can be, what's the type for? Defensive. I can be a defensive individual. But no, how does he make my femininity shine through? He's just very masculine. So if anything needs to be done, he's going to get it done. And if there's any sort of issue, problem, something that needs to be handled, you can guarantee you can just do this and he'll fix it and lead the way. Which is what you want out of any man in a relationship ever. I think like that is the true test of a relationship. There's like personality quirks and values and all these different things. But like when issues arise, how do things get handled? And you'll just feel when somebody has your back and can lead you through situations and is logical and some men will assert themselves as like being very aggressive or dominant and they constantly need to be domineering or, you know, violent. That is not the one you want. And some might get confused that that is the thing you want. You want the person who's measured and logical and just like knows how to get from point A to point B as swiftly as possible. Yeah. - Sutton Dude says the French were at one time very based, especially during World War I when they were a major powerhouse ever since losing the first Indo-China war. They have become the uncoolest country in the world. No weed. - Interesting take. Yeah, you know, I've seen like, I've seen some flashes of light and hope. Obviously in the EU election we saw like France was lit up conservatively or far right if we're calling it that. And even when all the gender stuff was happening and of course that's happening all over Europe but they wanted to make alterations to the French language and they were like, hell no, we're not altering our language. This is tried, true and traditional. And we're not altering the way that we gender language because you think you can swap in and out and change pronouns and change the way words are what conjugated and all that fun stuff that they were trying to submit. They shot that down expeditiously. So there's been little flashes of hope that exist. - Now DeAndre Cleaver says, how could anyone not believe that there's a ghost writer in the Oval Office, in office? I don't think he's responsible for any policies a cognitive test should be required. - Oh, I mean, yeah. I mean, I feel like just to be a politician of really any kind that is substantial, you have writers and ghost writers at that. You constantly have staffers who are writing up your press releases, your speeches, your talking points, all of these different things. That is industry standard. However, I think Biden's, whoever's doing his writing, they're working overtime. They're working overtime because for every sentence that they give him, they're adding a little parentheses at the end that tells him where to stand and who to look at and how to say it. And he reads that anyways. So our dude's having a tough time. Someone tweeted a photo of Biden's speech writing team and it's like this a dozen Gen Z 20 something, mostly women. - Yeah, blue hair. - It's like these are the people like dictating our president's communication, that makes sense. If you look at his Twitter feed, it's all very much like your intern wrote this. - 100%. - Like a week or so ago, they confused the Supreme Court ruling with like a, you know, federal district court ruling and then they had to delete the tweet just like from the present United States. And not a good look. But I guess if you're on the Trump train, you can't talk too much on the Twitter thing either, but at least that's more just like, you know it's him and it's wildly entertaining. - Yeah. - It's a little bit crazy. - If you're asking yourself like who writes Joe Biden's words, just think of the same people who wrote Star Wars, the Acolyte, the same people who wrote the new Assassin's Creed game. Those are the people writing for President Joe Biden. Are we living in a badly written episode of She-Haul? - We are, we are, we are, we are indeed. - Dobby is not free, says, I'm not American, so I'm not sure if I should be saying this, but Biden seems to lack argument of ability to handle the presidency. Anyways, support from Korea. - Hey, you should be saying that and you would be absolutely correct. And I'm glad that you know that somebody who does not live in the United States and that you can recognize it as well because I swear we're getting laughed at all around the world. I can hear it, I can, I can, I can hear it. - Yeah, I love how he's just like, well, but anyways, your president looks like he's a vegetable, but good luck with that. See ya. - Right. - Thank you. It's fine. This is fine. - Everything's fine. - Russ is writing, says the French election seems to prove that politics has become a sport. And as the old saying goes, the worst thing about any sport is it's fans. - Yeah, I mean, yeah, it has. It's just like my team won a few. Let's write it in the streets. Let's fight each other on election day. It's crazy to see what's going on and like the deterioration of it. And more so like in any sport, you can cheat. So this seems to be something, something's going on. I don't know how you can have one week of elections. And then suddenly the next week, everything just turns on its head. Even though the people who are losing got more votes and somebody's gonna have to explain this to me. Somebody French, this is gonna have to explain. Many French people are gonna have to explain this to me. - Mike Bickle says, "My little Toria and I, "or my little Toria, I supertered about her in October, "turn nine months old, got two teeth in, "is crawling everywhere and loves her puppy Rico. "Really, all dogs." - Wait, they're all dogs? - No, he's saying his child, Toria, but he's super chatted about back in October, just turn nine months old, has teeth and is throwing everywhere and loves puppies. - That is so sweet. Oh my God. - It's a very wholesome object. - That is a very wholesome update. I just imagine a little crawling baby. I just got a new puppy this past weekend, which is nothing like a baby. Let me make that clear. I'm not a dog mom or anything like that. But just imagining that in human form is even cuter. - Yeah, now Hama is a dog mom twice over. I mean, not dog mom, we won't say that word, but today. - And I'm done it too, y'all. Okay, we got Charlie, we got Charlie. And Charlie is like rambunctious and playing around or whatever. And I do just think now that I've experienced it, especially with this breed, they need a companion to play with because as soon as we got this second dog, who's a little eight-week-old, his name is Wendy, because immediately when we got to my grandparent's house, he picked up a basketball and was like running around with the basketball, picking it up, throwing it. So he's named after Victor with women, Yama. So his name is Wendy. And as soon as we got Wendy home, Charlie was content. They're like two brothers right now hanging out, having a good time. - Love that. Yeah, we got the second cat too. And I mean, you start, I feel like we're borderline becoming cat weirdos, but also it's a little easier. They get to hang each other and they're happier. So, - But you know, they need each other. - Oh, we're done it too as well. How can it be one of those houses crawling on cats? - Yes. - Alina Mock says, "Almaus compilation video is be so for real right now." - That's true. - You're saying over and over again? - Be so for real right now, that is the one that I use. It's a little too common. I need to come up with something more unique. - More unique. - More unique. - What can be unburdened by what has been? - Oh my gosh, she ate. - Celtic Blacksmith says, "By the way, Taylor, I didn't catch it last week, but Timothy W was reppin' life-maxing. It's spreading, my guy. You have accidentally shown us the light." - Wow. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Life-maxers. - Yeah. - Because I'm familiar. We do a lot of shows reacting to like dating, content and stuff. And people talk about looks-maxing and, you know, looking your best in order to secure the right partner. And we evolve that into life-maxing and not just looking good, but being good and thriving in all areas of life being a good person. So, I'm all about the life-maxing. He put a little trademark symbol on it too. - Nice. - Nice. - I think I put that on a t-shirt. - Love it. - Ashley Davis says, "First time catching a life. I have food poisoning, but watching your life makes it not so bad. I love your podcasts and how you approach things. Stay 100." - Thank you. Food poisoning is rough, dude. Wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. That sounds awful. Drink lots of water and keep hydrated. It's a tough one. - That's rough. - Yes, indeed. I got food poisoning last time I went to New York City in February and I ate at a very nice Spanish Michelin star restaurant and it messed me up. And so-- - Nausea was the worst feeling on earth. I don't know. If you could like bottle that and give it to people as a poison, that's the worst torture in the world. Awful. - Yeah, I was like on a subway and halfway to a museum or something. I was like, "I need to get out of this right now. "I'm about to puke and show enough." And then I went to the airport like eight hours early. - Oh my gosh. - Couldn't get in the lounge 'cause we were in the wrong terminal and I was just sitting there in the terminal like puking every few minutes for all day. It's horrible. Anyway, sorry guys. - Food poisoning in an airport is way worse. That just 10 times worse than anything I could have imagined. - Yeah. - Oh man. - So we feel for you Ashley. I hope you feel better soon. - You do. - All that to say. - Yes, all that to say. - Again, just sends a little emoji that says number one fan. Thank you, Ronald. - Thanks, Ronald. - Dick Morone says, "From the gravy to sweet tea, KFC, "will be free." (laughing) - Damn. Brip. I don't even know what to say to that. That was very creative. Very clever. - When's the last time you ate at a KFC? It's been a long time for me. - If I'm gonna get fried chicken, it's Popeyes. I don't know. There's no debate on this. If you're gonna eat fried chicken, it's Popeyes. Those spicy tenders are something different. - If you're gonna eat fast food fried chicken, let me specify because we don't play. - I mean, I'm besides Chick-fil-A, Chick-fil-A is like my gut too. - Really? - Weekly, probably. - Fair enough. Fair enough. KFC, the last time I had it, literally, it might've been when I was in Beijing, China, like three or four years ago, visiting my parents for a living there for a minute, right before COVID. I guess it's more than four years ago now, but. - That's a while back. - Yeah, I can't remember the last time I had that either. - Okay, yeah, you pay on like WeChat or whatever. You have to like scan your QR code in order through this little kiosk. It was all very cool, but dystopian. Anywho, Chicken Pork Adobo says, "Let's not be stuck in yesterday's routine. "Every day is the perfect day to do "what we should have been doing all along. "We must look ahead to the possibilities "of what should be, not just what has been." Whoa, that's what Kamala Harris should have said. That was profound. - Yeah, that sounds better. - That was profound. Drop the mic on that one. I'm a procrastinator at heart. So that statement is attacking something in me right now, but I do agree with it. - I'm from Medick 'cause I've been hit by that one. Tikka Pickle says, "I lost friends and I'd had half my life "because I refuse to be a quote-unquote ally "for leftist interests. "My reasoning was why be an ally for a group "that would love to stab me in the back? "They got the chance." - It's a doggy dog grow out there and they're most certainly eating each other on that side. So it's a very valid question to be asking yourself and you gotta find people who are worthy of allyship. So far, so few. - Yeah, and if their friendship toward you is conditional on like you're taking certain political stances with them, then that's not really what you'd consider a friend. - Yeah. - Celtic Blacksmith says, "By the way, "I learned how to dance today. "I had a revelation and realized all I gotta do "is pretend I'm freeing a wedgie and directing traffic. "You'll never be able to unsee it at the clubs now. "Moo ha ha ha, devil emoji." - You know, I don't know how successful that would... You know, if you're just there to dance, who am I to say? Dance however it is that you wanna dance, but freeing the wedgie and directing traffic is giving me very interesting imagery. - You're right, I can't get that out of my head. - For all the wrong reasons. - Started TikTok dance trend with that one. - Right. - See how it goes. LA native says, "Better the priest touches my food "than my children." - Okay, yeah, most certainly if you had to make some sort of choice in that direction, you definitely wanted to touch the food. - Oh, neither. - She caught me up guarding me. - Either of them. - Ashley Davis says, "Hello, options is fine, "but changing everything is not really being inclusive. "It's pandering. "A accommodation is one thing, "but catering too is another." - Right, it should be like, "Here is the current culture we have set up, "but now that you're here, "here are some inclusive options for you. "Not now that you're here, "we throw out the culture that we've set up, "and we make all the options for you." And nevermind, let me shut up. Let me shut up. I'm gonna get to go to the receipts. - Chicken Pork Adobo says, "I love that the 2024 Olympics "will be held in a Muslim country." - Oh, that took a minute. That took a minute to think about it. Wow, that's crazy. That is peak inclusivity. That is peak diversity, equity, and inclusion. - Yeah, great. - I just hope they're not riding when I'm over there. I'm going in about a month from now, I'll be there for the Olympics in Paris for a couple days. I'm going to the beach volleyball semifinals. - So you'll be our on-the-ground correspondent. - Yeah, well, I'm a little scared now. I mean, for the last couple of weeks, we've reacted to craziness in the UK and France, and I'm like, "That's where I have my big vacation coming up." So I'm hoping it's like super looking forward to that. - Like, you hope it's like an exaggeration. Like, oh, we're just getting like a filtered set of news and all the crazy stories pop up over here, and it's not a true depiction, but I guess you'll be there to confirm. - Yeah, maybe they can pull like a Xi Jinping visiting San Francisco and 99% of the time, the streets are absolutely filthy and full of needles and homeless people and drugs and stuff, but for the Olympics, they'll clean up Paris just for those few days. - They probably will. Probably exactly what's gonna happen. - Athena says, "Hi, Amala, I'm going to be going in the Army in a couple months as a 7-4-D, and I enjoy listening to these lives while I prep, keep reaching true." - Interesting, that's quite a journey to be going on. I hope all goes well for you. Thank you for choosing to serve this country, although it's an interesting time. I'd be curious to know what your job even looks like. I don't even know what the acronym stands for. - And I believe that that is our last super chat of the day. - Hey, we'll take it, guys. Thank you so much for watching. We covered many a story today.
