responsibly. Well, we talked about Tiger King, Joe Exotic, not getting his pardon from President
Trump yesterday before the president left office. And now Joe Exotic has said that he was denied
for getting his pardon from President Trump because he was too gay.
Joseph Alan Maldonado passage released a statement on his Twitter account.
Seathing, he was upset.
He thought for sure he was going to get it.
And so did all his people.
They were really counting on a pardon from Donald Trump.
But I was too innocent and too gay to deserve a pardon from Trump.
I only mattered to Don Jr.
When he needed to make a comment about me to boost his social media post.
Oh, Tiger King.
Now, you know, Carol Baskin is happy.
She is happy.
She believes that, you know, he belongs in a cage behind bars.
And that's exactly where he'll be.
He's served a year or so already of his 20-year sentence.
And so good luck.
Good luck because I think that was your only shot, Joe.
So I would guess that you're going to have to continue behind bars for quite some time.
I know.
It's tough being too gay.
Welcome to chewing the fat.
My thumb, my thumb.
Oh, oh, my thumb.
Now, I want to laugh at the thing.
this, but it's really not funny because we don't laugh at other, and I use this term lately,
uh, athletes, um, who get injured and cannot continue on with whatever sport they're playing, right?
I mean, that happens. No matter who we are, uh, you either, you know, get too old or you get hurt.
And that's just the way it is. But, uh, call of duty gamer, Thomas Zuma,
paparado says he's going to be stepping back from the professional gaming due to,
well, there's too much pain, his thumb, it hurts too much.
This is going to be happening more and more, right?
He said it breaks his heart to step away from a game.
I put my heart and soul into every single day for eight years, right?
I mean, if you're using your thumbs like that and every day,
and now you're struggling with the injury, needing surgery?
Wow.
I mean, rehab is going to be tough for, you know, you athletes.
So good luck.
God bless.
I hope you can get back to Call of Duty soon.
I'm sure the other gamers are going to be very, very happy.
They're not going to say it out loud.
I mean, they reached out to you with huge support and sorry to see you go.
but really, they're saying behind doors, yeah, good luck, God bless.
And thanks, take care.
Glad we don't have to compete against Thomas Zuma Papparado anymore on Call of Duty.
My thumb, my thumb.
Okay, so I've got a couple of stories here.
One is I absolutely never thought of it this way at all.
And I don't know that it really, really matters.
And the other is, I thought we already had this, but I guess we didn't.
So we'll start with, honestly, I've never looked at it this way.
And I don't know that it really matters.
And I don't know that it's going to take off.
It might, though, in today's world.
So a Dutch card fan, Indy Mellink, was explaining a game to her cousins, according to this story last summer.
when she asked herself, why should a king be worth more than a queen?
And my answer to that would have been, well, we can play the game that the queen is worth more than the king if you want.
It's fine.
It's just a card game.
It's fine.
You could make the cards worth anything you want.
That's why it's a game.
But the 23-year-old decided it was time to break the centuries-old tradition.
of sexual inequality in playing card decks that rank men above women.
Okay.
So is the Jack a woman too?
Because I don't think so.
I think that the queen is higher than the Jack, right?
The queen is only below the king, and that's only because we say so.
We can say the queen is higher than the king anytime you want.
Indy.
But that's not important.
It's not important.
She says, if we have this hierarchy, that the king is worth more than the queen, that this subtle inequity influences people in their daily life because it's just another way of saying, hey, you're less important.
Even subtle inequities like this.
Do play a big role.
Do they?
Do they, indie?
Because not in my mind, but maybe that's just my subtle.
subtle way of, I think that women are less.
So my sexual inequality is a tradition.
But after a lot of trial in there,
she's designed a genderless deck
in which images of a king,
queen, and Jack
were replaced
with gold, silver,
and bronze. So it's just the Olympic, right?
You still have a winner, a middle,
in a third place,
winner.
She made some decks.
She got the images up, and she began selling them online.
So I guess she's made about 1,500 packs.
They're sent all over Europe, and they're now getting a big promotion, right?
So it's good that we reflect on gender neutrality, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
And it's very important that any time you wonder if it's worth it, gender neutrality, I'm all for it.
It's great that someone of this age is no.
notice this. It's a new generation, the head of the Dutch Bridge Association said.
Is it, is it Barrett von Dobbenberg? Are you going to be changing over to the indie deck of
cards with the gold, silver, and bronze cards? It really doesn't matter. I mean, I'm okay
with playing with those two, to be honest with you. It's really just as agonizing to me that
the reason we're doing it is because of gender equality
and because she looked at this deck of cards and thought,
why is the king worth more than the queen?
Well, it's just a card game.
It's the way it was developed.
It was developed by those bastard men.
Yep, who said the king is more powerful than anything.
But really, when the king goes down, the queen is the most powerful.
and what's the i just saw a stupid uh meme or photo or something on one of those social media sites that talked
about uh what do you have with a queen without a king a more powerful queen something like that
i mean yeah that's what you have i just okay anyway look forward to that uh becoming more and
more in our lives okay we want we do not want to have
this hierarchy that the king is worth more than the queen in a deck of cards.
Because it says, it's just another way of saying, hey, you are less important.
Oh, okay. Is that what it says? Is that what it says? I think not.
It may have meant that. I'd have to go back and look at when they were designing a deck of cards because they've been around forever.
In fact, yeah.
And they talk about how the modern playing cards evolved into a deck of 52 cards with four suits in red and black and with two jokers
by making a journey that took hundreds of years and involved traveling through many countries.
So, you know, it's okay.
I love playing card games.
I love it.
And if somebody sits down with a deck of cards that has the gold, silver, and bronze instead of the king, queen of james.
Jack. It's okay. We're going to play. That's fine. It just means that the gold represents the
king and the king is more important than the silver or the queen. I mean, it's just that simple,
right? All right, this story I found surprising. I found surprising because I thought
we don't already have this, but I guess we didn't. The first dinosaur butthole ever discovered
is shedding light where, you know, the sun doesn't shine.
It reveals how dinosaurs use this multi-purpose opening,
known as the cloakal vent, cloical vent,
clo-a-c-l-l-l-vent for pooping, peeing, breeding, and egg-laying.
Well, duh.
Okay, so the dinosaurs.
but
dairy air
rear end is so well
preserved the researchers could see the
remnants of two small
bulges by
the exit door
which
so that's good
right
right
so
I mean the caboose
rear end butt
shares, you know,
characteristics with the back sides
of some living creatures.
It's also a one-of-a-kind opening.
The anatomy is unique.
Lead researcher,
Jacob Vintner,
the University of Bristol
of the United Kingdom,
told live science
it doesn't quite look like the opening on birds,
which are the closest living relatives of dinosaurs.
It does look a bit like the back opening
on a crocodile.
I mean, if you'd have showed me a picture, I could have told you.
I mean, I'm looking at this picture now and I was thinking, you know, that looks just like the butt of a crocodile.
But it's different in some ways, right?
It's shaped in its perfect, unique way.
And this well-preserved butt belongs to the placidocosaurus, a bristly-tailed, labrador-sized horn-faced dinosaur, meaning it was a
a relative of triceratops, like its famous trihorned cousin,
Pacinicorsaurus, lived between the Cretaceous period,
which lasted from about 145 million to 65 million years ago.
I guess they have studied the Positacosaurus specimen before,
found in China, which determines its skin color.
But now, now we've got one that, uh,
Hello, we know what kind of butthole it is.
Now, none of the reproductive soft tissues were preserved.
So we don't know if it had a, you know, a thing, or it was a female without a thing,
or maybe they both, they had both.
So they can't say whether the dinosaur was male or female.
They're saying, so it might have been, it might have been a female or a male.
But I guess in animal world, it's either one or the other.
You don't have both.
but in the documentary Jurassic Park
we find out that we know
that life
finds a way
so unlike some birds
that bump butts
when they do a colloquial kiss
during reproduction
it's likely that this dinosaur
had copulatory sex
so we don't know that for sure
but we're just guessing
as a, you know, as a dinosaur professional.
So anyway, congratulations.
And it's good news that we've got a great, beautiful, preserved butthole that
helps us shine light on just what the dinosaur's butthole look like.
Man, oh man, you've got to love that, right?
it's important.
It's important to know
what the dinosaur's butt hole
looked like.
I know it's important.
We're supposed to know what it looked like
and what it was used for
and it helps us to figure out what.
Yeah, they laid eggs
and they had sex
and they pooped and they peed
and they did everything out of this one hole.
That's the way they were.
Now we've evolved.
So we have more than one hole
that we use things from.
But there's still
some animals that are similar to the dinosaurs, and it's important to know.
Got it.
As long as we're on animals, I'll talk about one dog that the animal was, I mean, the owner,
was busy, worried about the dog because the dog started limping.
And then, so he takes it to a doctor, finds, tries to find out what's wrong with the dog.
He spent, according to this, it's a,
you know, European guy.
So he spent, you know, euros to get his injured dog checked up.
As it turned out, the dog wasn't injured at all.
And you'd think that the owner would have figured this out.
I kind of think that the owner is maybe a little slow.
That's just me.
I don't know that.
I haven't talked to him.
I don't know who he is.
But apparently he was in a cast, limping.
And then the dog started limping as well.
It was a sympathy limp by the dog.
Well, you'd think that the owner would know that, right?
If you are the owner of an animal, you pretty much know that animal.
If you don't, you're an idiot, which this guy quite possibly could be.
But, you know, I know they're making a big deal about our animals are known to mimic human behavior.
Your parents repeat our speech, monkeys in training, repeat actions and so on.
And they're adorable.
But, you know, now people are sharing Russell Jones story all over social media.
Yeah.
Because they think, oh, it's so cute.
The dog was limping for you, which you should have known.
And now you think, I'm about all this money.
I thought my dog was hurt.
Maybe you should have figured out that your dog started limping when you started limping because you were in a cast.
I just, I just, I can't.
I just, I can't.
I can't.
I'm sorry, I'm not going to lose.
How cute it was.
Yes, it's cute.
Yes, it's sympathy from your dog,
but if you know your animal,
you should know what your animal is up to.
You can quote me on that.
You can, you can quote me on that.
This is a chewing the fat quote.
If you know your animal,
you should know what your animal is up to.
I think that was the quote.
Yeah, that sounds about right.
All right.
All right.
Let's go to the break room.
I desperately need something called the drink.
Oh my gosh.
So good.
So congratulations are in order.
Boy, am I happy for the one human in Maryland who won the $731.1 million jackpot.
I know.
I know.
The Powerball, congratulations.
Man, am I happy for you?
There's nothing I want more than someone else to win that powerball other than me.
I'm happy for you.
And I hope that you will know how to spend that $731.1 million dollar powerball jackpot winning.
the cash value of $546.8 million, of course, you know, before taxes.
But I was looking at there's also, there was the one jackpot winner in Maryland,
and then there was one power or match five power play for $2 million in Maryland.
I wonder if that was the same guy or lady or family.
So they would, you know, add another couple million to that,
if that's them, or maybe it was one of the kids,
something, you know, it's fascinating.
And, of course, there were, uh,
one, two, three, four, five, six, seven one million dollar winners in the match five
for the power ball.
So, and, uh, Texas is not one of the states listed.
So it wasn't me.
It wasn't me.
Now, we have the mega millions drawing coming up the 22nd of January, Friday,
If you're listening to this show live,
which, I mean, why wouldn't you be listening to this live?
On the 21st of January, 2021, that would be tomorrow.
That jackpot tomorrow night at 11 p.m.
on Friday, 122.21, is $970 million,
with a cash option of $716.3 million.
wow just take a moment and be happy for someone that could possibly win that right right because i am i am happy
for those people you who man you cannot make me any happier than i am for them because i wanted somebody
else to win and not me. So,
thankfully,
it happened.
Oh, man.
That's, I know it's, look,
I know it's not going to happen because I want it.
So it's okay.
I guess I could pretend I don't want it and maybe that will work,
but really deep down you want it.
So the,
the wanting it is still out in the universe,
if you believe in that kind of stuff.
So, you know.
If it's already out there, then saying you don't want it is really a lie because you do wanting it is already out of the universe.
And because you really want it so bad, you're not going to get it.
Right?
I mean, some people think that's the way it works.
I think I'm turning into one of those people.

Sad news coming from Disney.
I know.
I know you don't like to get sad news coming from Disney.
But the CEO, Bob Chappick,
and the executive chairman, Bob Iger,
lost their bonus payments due to the pandemic.
I know.
I don't know how they're going to get by.
According to the reports that were revealed at the SEC filing,
Bob, the CEO, was paid $14 million.
And Bob, the executive chairman,
I guess you have to be named Bob to be bosses at Disney,
Bob Chapman,
Iger earned $21 million.
But they didn't make their bonus.
I know.
So that may have had something to do with, you know,
Disney laying off thousands of workers.
You know,
that could have had something to do with them,
not making their bonuses.
Some of that wasn't their fault, though.
I mean, I'm making fun of them
not making their bonuses due to the pandemic.
But Disney and California is not even allowed to open.
They begged California.
for you, please let us open and create jobs and get people back to work. Nope. We're going to use
your parking lot for the vaccine so people can pull up and get their vaccine shot, but you can't
be open. And there's no walk-ups to the vaccine shots in on Disney property. You have to have a
reservation. Oh, okay. All right. No problem. But it is sad that I don't know how Bob and Bob are going to
get by. Little Bob only made 14 million and Big Bob made 21 million and without their bonus payments.
I do not know how they're going to get by. I just don't. And Tommy Hilfiger, as long as we're
talking about people that are worth quite a bit of money, just sold his place in Connecticut for
$45 million. Now Tommy is, I think, worth, I don't know, for $500 million.
He's doing okay.
He's all right.
He's 69 now.
And his wife, who is 54, just sold the place.
13,344 square feet, 22 acres,
six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and three powder rooms.
Now, it's just a beautiful place.
I actually was looking at the pictures of it.
It is gorgeous.
and I can well understand why.
I mean, it was redone by them.
You know, hand-painted fabric walls, carved millwork,
wideboard and limestone floors,
textile wall coverings,
a wine cellar, a tasting room,
18th century French fireplace,
among these six fireplaces.
Master bedroom has two bathrooms, two dressing rooms,
and an office, I mean,
and it's really, really beautiful.
Now, it has, it also has a detached,
tea house.
Now, they use that for security, but you can also
use that for, you know, your private meetings.
Just kick security out of there.
It's got a carved wooden staircase, a formal
dining room, a wood paneling, a large
kitchen with wood beams, and a breakfast room,
of course. And, of course, a home theater.
Hello. So,
it has Turkish heritage.
The decor is really special.
She, the wife, made the theater room
really beautiful, cozy room.
where you just want to watch movies all day.
It has a candy machine, popcorn,
sofas, and different levels of chairs.
It's just so darn nice.
Outdoors, the house has fountains,
a quipon, a pool,
an all-weather tennis court,
a rose garden, a boxwood knot garden,
a top of a garden,
a lawn overlooking Long Island sound.
The house has a four-car garage
plus a two-bedroom guest house
with its own two-car garage.
And it even has a greenhouse,
which once housed orchids and a chicken coop with three roosters and at least a dozen hens.
But now I guess they had to kill them and eat them.
So that's why they sold the place.
But it looks really pretty.
They only got $45 million for the dump.
Now, according to this, the Hill Figures, this is their eighth house that they've renovated and sold over the last 35 years.
They purchased this one for a 31.3.3.7.
million 10 years ago or 11 years ago in 2010 and they you know renovated it all and it says here
they reportedly spent millions you think renovating you think um duh you can't just buy a place for
30 million and move in I mean that's just unheard of oh man it's got a wet bar sitting in
billiards table, you know, I mean, it's just, it's what you would expect from a Tommy Hill figure.
And it's beautiful.
And you could have gotten it, but it's already, you know, it's off the market now.
Sold $45 million.
Sorry.
I mean, you can make an offer.
And maybe the new owner will, you know, sell it to you.
Just maybe he's just buying it to turn it over.
I don't know.
But apparently, the Hill figures are moving to Florida.
They want to come to Florida.
I don't know why.
They said unnamed reasons, but they also threw in their favorable tax policies.
You think?
I mean, they sold the Plaza Hotel Penthouse a couple years ago for 33.25 million.
And a Palm Beach mansion for $35 million in 2017.
Yeah, but that was three or four years ago.
And now it's time to move.
back and that place was a dump.
We didn't get an opportunity to really fix that up like we wanted.
So we're going to take the money that we made from our place in Greenwich and fix up our new place so that we can actually, you know, live.
We have a little room to spread out.
We can't be expected to live in something, buy something and move in.
I thought we already discussed that.
You can't be expected to just buy a house and move in.
Duh.
So I know that we are all concerned about the pandemic and it's dark times, according to our new president.
And I know that they have said that they fear the surge in the virus really imperils their pledge to curb the pandemic.
But I have a feeling that now that those numbers are going to go up, especially here in the first, you know, first couple of weeks after.
Trump leaves so they could still blame it on Trump.
We saw yesterday,
according to this,
literally one hour after Biden took the oath,
the who admitted that PCR testing
at high amplification
at high amplification rates
alters the predictive value of the tests
and results in a huge number of false positives.
We talked about that before on this show
about the cycle threshold value.
And remember I talked about
when I was in the hospital
and I tried to get those numbers,
you can't.
What they're saying is,
is that those cycle threshold values,
if the way that they're testing
at such a high rate,
there's all kinds of false positives.
Plus, remember back in May
when they first started talking
about this cycle threshold value,
they talked about how people
who had a low number
in that threshold
weren't contagious.
So they didn't need to be quarantined.
So I have a feeling.
This is just me.
I have a feeling that because of that,
they're going to start testing differently,
which brings the numbers down,
which will make it seem like the pandemic
is being curbed because of our new administration.
But really, it's just a number.
new way of testing that could have been done a long time ago.
I know.
I know.
Okay.
Let's go through some of the inauguration headlines.
Just so you know, I'll try and I'm going to do my best just to give you the headlines,
just so you know.
I know that the National Youth Poet Laureate Amanda Gorman apparently stole the show.
I don't know if you had an opportunity to see it.
but they're calling it a transfixing poem titled The Hill We Climb.
In that poem, she talks about,
For there is always light,
if only we're brave enough to see it.
It's a good thing she didn't steal my line,
my quote for her poem,
because I would have, you know,
live in the dark long enough,
and it becomes your light.
That would have been the poem I would have read,
But I digress.
And I watched Lady Gaga,
singer National Anthem.
She was,
I was fine.
It was a really nice national anthem.
It was great.
I was,
you know,
she had the giant,
she had the giant bird.
And what is it from,
you know,
they're the Hunger Games.
The Hunger Games.
The Mocking Jay.
Which was nice.
J-Lo came out.
She sang.
It was great.
I know they were mad at her for hawking their new song or something.
So what?
That's what they're there for.
Right?
That's what they're there for.
They make a big deal about Garth with hair plugs and he showed up in jeans.
He's Garth Brooks.
Of course he showed up in jeans.
That's who he is.
It doesn't mean you get to show up in jeans.
It just means the star does, okay?
That's who he is.
Got it?
Okay, good.
And I thought Garth's Amazing Grace was great.
And I know that he said that he didn't perform at the Trump inauguration in 2017 because of a scheduling conflict.
So, I mean, we'll take him at his word for that.
The chief of staff for the new administration directed all executive agencies to immediately freeze any regulations that had anything to do with Donald Trump.
So we knew that was going to come.
I was really surprised they held a press conference, of course, that was their way of saying,
we all hold press conferences, we're going to be open and transparent.
And Jen Saki, you know, was there.
And they made a big deal about she wouldn't say whether Biden supports Senate conviction of Trump.
I feel like that would have been a great way to reach across the aisle from President Biden by saying,
hey, let's not continue with this impeachment.
It's over.
let's move on. He's out of office. Let's move on. But that didn't happen. That did not happen. According to that same press conference, the first world leader call was going to be with Canada's Justin Trudeau. Yeah, I'm sure he was already on the line. Man, he was pissed over the pipeline. So, because he was saying, hey, hold up on that. You know, that's part of our deal. And nope, I'm going to cancel the Excel. Okay.
All right, we'll see.
We'll see what happens.
They also talked about that Trump had written a letter to Biden,
and you know it was really good and really heartfelt when they won't share it with you.
It said the president wrote a very generous later,
but it's private.
I'm not going to talk about it until I talk with him.
Uh-huh.
And you plan on talking to him when, Joe?
Any time in the near future, you can give us on that?
because you know the letter from Trump to Biden was really nice and generous and said some really cool things because they didn't share it.
All right.
Trump said in his last little speech on his way home and he was going to create a new Patriot Party.
All right.
Good.
Good.
Let's go ahead and do that.
There was news that Biden had replaced Andrew Jackson portrait in the Oval Office and added a.
Caesar Chavez bust.
We'll see if that's actually true or not.
They talked about the Chavez bust behind the Resolute desk,
but I remember, I watched some of the video of him signing these executive orders,
and I didn't remember seeing Chavez back there,
so we'll see if that's actually true or not.
I don't know.
Good news for those of you that wanted to get the Kamal Harris cover from Vogue,
they're going to be printing a limited edition.
of the Kamala Harris cover of its February issue and it's going to be out there.
So, I mean, that's good news.
You'll be able to get a copy of that.
And China mocks President Trump's exit with a headline Goodridden's Donald Trump.
It announced sanctions against the outgoing Trump officials.
The FCC chair warned of threats to telecoms from China.
so that makes me feel like um let's just say not good it makes me feel like not good when uh china is happy
about an official leaving uh that means that they're also happy about the new official coming in
and that doesn't necessarily make me happy at all chelsea handler uh went topless to
celebrate Joe Biden officially becoming president.
Good.
I mean, when doesn't she go topless?
Is that a celebration for Joe Biden?
I guess she unzipped her jacket and unbuttoned her shirt and lifted up her bra
in order to share the breasts with the whole world.
That isn't the first time.
And Chelsea does that at the drop of a hat anyway.
I don't know why that's such a big deal.
And, you know, Joe Biden is such a devout Catholic.
Our new administration and our new president, Joe Biden, such a devout Catholic.
And because he's such a devout Catholic, I'm sure that's why the statement from the U.S.
Bishops conference that was held back because of the Vatican, they were going to release
a statement from the conference president, Archbishop Jose Gomez,
where they took uncompromising positions on abortion, gender, and religious liberty,
warning that the Biden administration's policy agenda would advance moral evils on several fronts.
But since our new president, Joe Biden, is such a devout Catholic,
that they held back that statement.
The Vatican said, hey, hey, hey, new, you don't need to be releasing that.
We don't need to say anything like that at all.
Huh, strange.
I don't know why they wouldn't let that one, let that one go.
And in another Catholic story, a priest that attended the Stop the Steel Rally,
head of the U.S. Capitol siege, was suspended.
I know.
I know.
So in Ohio, Dayton,
arch priest Mark Hodges,
who was affiliated with the St. Paul, the Apostle Orthodox Church in Dayton,
said that he was slapped with a three-month suspension
and faces possible defrocking for simply attending the demonstration
by President Donald Trump supporters.
So, I mean, that proves just how much the church is behind what the church
says they believe in, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what it does.
Anyway, those are just a few of the headlines.
Just so you know what's going on
around the inauguration.
I know.
I know.
It's agonizing, and I apologize,
but you need to know.
You need to know some of this stuff.
Just so you have an idea of what's going on,
and then you can just, you know,
when people say, hey, well, you know what's going on, don't you?
You can say, yeah, I sure do.
and you can you know you'll be aware of the things that happened you'll be aware that
i mean chelsea handler showed her breasts in honor of the new president and man you don't get that
every day well you do but not for biden all right before we uh before we wrap this up let's talk a
little tinder we know and so do you that if you're on tinder and you're looking to and i use
you know, quotation marks, date.
It's expected that you're going to go out on that date and be able to have a little business.
And that's the whole point behind Tinder.
The world knows that.
Tinder pretends that that's not it.
We're just a dating site.
We want people to meet.
It's important that people realize that, well, that's what we're for.
Uh-huh.
What you're for is people to meet up.
and take care of a little business.
That's what Tinder is.
We all know that.
But of course, we have to pretend
that it's just a dating thing
and we're just trying to have a nice,
comfortable date.
Well, in this story, Madison,
who claims being in recovery,
for what I don't know,
once we were back to his place,
he kept insisting that she drank alcohol with him.
She got uncomfortable and decided to call an Uber,
so she could leave.
While she was waiting for the car to arrive,
he got angry, her date got angry,
and the two had this absolutely infuriating conversation
that she recently shared on TikTok
and currently has over 1.3 million views.
And it says here, warning mentions of sexual assault.
I watched the video that was posted.
I didn't see anything about sexual assault.
I didn't see anything.
He's explaining to her,
hey, that's what Tinder is, okay?
If you're out on a date with Tinder, it's because you're going to come back and take care of business.
She says, hey, you should put that in your bio, that you're only looking for sex.
He says, if I put that in my bio, I'll never get any dates.
Plus, I would say, my argument to that is you don't need it in your bio.
It's implied when you're on Tinder getting dates.
I know this is going to start a huge fight with a lot of people.
So I'm ready for it.
You can email me chewing the fat at the blaze.com.
No problem.
I'll take the heat and you and I'll have a conversation with you.
But I'm telling you right now,
the reason that you're swiping right
and hoping that someone connects is for business,
not for a candlelight dinner,
and maybe we'll just be together.
We're just going out on a date.
So I know Madison believed that to be true.
And he was saying,
hey, I'm just trying to help you.
She was saying that he was man-splaining, and he's like, I'm just trying to help you.
And I mean, I guess I guess I'm, you know, this evil white male.
But I am under the impression.
Like I said, I know people from Tinder believe that this isn't true.
And that's what they try to portray, that Tinder is just a, it's just a dating
And we want people to get together and become friends and go out and really have a have a relationship.
And maybe that does happen.
But the real reason that most people are swiping right on Tinder is for a bidness.
There's no mistake about that.
And I feel like Madison, the 25-year-old from Indiana,
who decided to meet up with this man that she'd been talking to on Tinder
is missing the point of Tinder.
Tinder equals Bitness.
You can quote me on that 100%.
Tinder equals Bitness.
That might not be the ad that Tinder runs when you see an advertisement for them,
But no, Tinder equals business.
