The difference between an emergency and non-emergency situation can sometimes be hard to spot.
An emergency, like breaking a hip, requires a call to 911.
But if a friend is having a mental health breakdown, call 2-1-1.
If a water main breaks, contact 311.
And for an incident like a past break-in, dial the non-emergency line.
The right call gets you the right help.

Is he the one who says when you're at a university,
I want you to be offended every single day?
Yeah, I think that is him.
Like, what do you think a university is?
Yeah.
I feel like somebody should just flash their dick at you, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Call you a slur every single day right to your face first thing in the morning.
It's like, what does that have to do with learning engineering?
Like, I fucking, I just want to get up.
No, learn to be an accountant.
Do I need to have, like, slurs every day?
God-awful movie.
Welcome back to the GameCast,
where each week we sample another selection from Christian cinema
because too many people told us to go fuck ourselves
for us to not at least try.
I'm your host, Noah Lusions.
Heath is off today, but sitting 900 miles to my northeast
is my bad friend Eli Bosnick, Eli.
How are you this fine afternoon, sir?
It's good to be back with bullshit, Noah.
Yeah, I mean, Heath's off weeping about the end of secular movie month.
It was fun, though.
We had a lot of fun.
Now let's stop having fun.
Yes.
And to help us stop having fun, I'm excited to welcome in a pair of guest masochists.
It's a villain one of Heath's shoes each.
Lydia and Thomas Smith from the Weathers woke podcast.
Thomas, Lydia, welcome back.
Hello, I claim right shoe.
You have to be on the last.
Oh, I claim right shoe.
No.
That sounds like at the same time.
So tell us, Lydia, what will we be breaking down to?
We are going to be breaking down something from maybe everybody's favorite duo,
2019's No Safe Spaces starring Adam Carolla and Dennis Prager, who is not dead yet.
Still, he's still not dead.
He's almost.
From your mouth to God's ears.
How could it possibly not be good, right?
Yeah, exactly.
Thomas, how bad was this movie?
Well, if you like hearing people say things,
Well, you're tired of those things corresponding to reality.
You will love this movie.
You will love this movie.
Oh, yeah.
You'll love it so much.
That's your fetish.
I got a movie for you.
So, Eli, you deserve a question here, too.
Why are we watching a seven-year-old documentary about yesteryear-year-old scare words?
Let me get out my navel and explain.
Noah.
So here's a thing, podcast listener.
We do our fair share of documentaries here, our god-awful movies.
We try to catch them in their prime when making fun of them.
can mitigate the most harm.
But this week, I wondered,
what if we did a documentary
as a sort of edifice
to exactly how full of shit
our parade of horribles was?
If you wanted one documentary
that could prove single-handedly
that every so-called reasonable person
who was just worried about
same cases and echo warnings
was absolutely always a bigot,
using fancy language as an excuse,
you will love this movie.
And I do.
It's Eli was right about everything in the movie.
It might as well, like, weigh in on how to load the dishwasher between me and my wife.
All right.
So there's anything guys that you want to nominate this one for being the best,
of being the worst at?
I mean, I want to talk about dishwasher loading now.
I'm going to say best, worst, odd couple pairing.
They try and set this up as like Dennis Prager and Adam Krola are like, you know, so different.
Why are they together?
Why in the world are they joining forces for something like this?
And it's so hand-fisted and stupid.
So that's my nomination.
Yeah.
And the whole time you're just like, they're both racists.
They're both right-wing racist people.
You're old white dudes.
Yeah.
I would say best, worst.
I don't know how much of the movie was even the movie.
Like I almost went through and was going to time.
Like, how much is.
stuff that they did versus how much is just the news or whatever, like clips.
Yeah. It's really cool if you can make a documentary by not actually making anything.
Right. You know how they say, like, if you go through and you look at a three-hour football
game, there's only 11 minutes of shit actually happening. Yeah. Yeah. It's exactly like that.
There's one recording of them in like a podcast studio. And they probably did that and then
interspersed it with an hour and a half of just like nothing. Yep. Yeah. So, okay. And speaking of
which, right, speaking of stretching out that run.
time, I was going to go with best worst trying to make shit seem cooler with slow motion.
Are you trying to imply that Dennis Brager walking isn't cool in the reason?
Smoking a cigar.
Yeah, smoking cigars in slow motion.
Jowls slowly swishing left and right.
Classical music, enjoy your Dennis Brager?
I'm confused by what you mean.
Was smoking a cigar ever cool?
I don't think of what?
Like, smoking cigarettes, we can all admit, was cool.
Like, it's cool.
When someone smoke cigarettes.
Cigar is kind of like, are you doing a,
like a big?
It's not cool.
It's just like, 17thies it was cool or something.
Right.
Yeah.
I think if a woman does it, it's fucking cool.
Oh, yeah.
But if a man, it doesn't, you know, I don't.
She smokes the cigar of a man she's just killed.
That's all.
Desperger's head is.
Yes.
On a record that is spinning?
Yeah.
Bonnie Parker,
I will try a cigar if that's the setup.
Yes.
That's what it'll take.
Dibbs on Dennis Praker.
Hey, wait, I have a different old man who she could behead.
I have a different old white guy in mind.
No, I call dips.
I call it.
I'll do all the old men.
All right.
This is team player.
Look at you, a fucking jousting,
with a jousting lance and you could just put them on like a kebab or something.
Cabob, yeah.
Yes.
Totally.
All right.
I'm going to go with best, best interactions.
Because here's a thing.
I'm going to make a bold claim, but I promise I'm going to back this.
up. Here's the thing. Adam Carolla is a normal person. He's a bad person, right? He's a bad person
who's chosen to pretend to be racist for a living and he deserves everything that he gets. But in this
movie, it is very clear that he is exposed to the insane people on the right for the first time.
So on a regular basis through this movie, and they're in his home. He'll be like, hey, so what do you
think of this? And so he'll be like, it got through to heaven. And he's like, ah, that's, it's
fucking insane that you did that
and there isn't someone getting you medical
help right now. I'm talking
you about the moment he shows a classic
car to Jordan Peterson.
Oh my God. I have thought about it 11
times in a car
apparently goes forward.
If you watch nothing else in this movie,
watch Jordan Peterson
try to react to a classic
car. Oh, good.
Well, it's great because I actually
could be like a bit of the resident
Adam Carolla expert. Because I was
a huge fucking fan of Adam Carolla.
I know.
I was a huge fan.
Love Lion I loved and then through to
his radio show I started right when I graduated
college I started listening to it.
Every day.
Beginning of our relationship, we would
just listen to Adam Carolla like when we would
drive, you know, different places.
And I will tell you, in my opinion, he is the
only person in this entire documentary
who actually believes what he says.
He actually is just this guy.
He just has always, he has a long, consistent
history of being your average
racist guy. And it's, and
But Eli's point still stands that he's the one guy who kind of believes what he's saying.
And then it's just a parade of people who are full of shit.
Yeah, right.
Or in psychosis, right?
It's professional liars.
Or both.
I mean, we're talking about Jordan Peterson being like, whants.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right, well, I'm sure all the terror that the liberals are coming for your freedoms
age like a fine wine.
So we're going to give it a minute to breathe before we dive into it.
But we'll back in a minute with all the paranoid delusions of no safe speech.
I'm telling you, Lydia, you have to try this.
Absolutely not.
Hey, guys, what's the matter?
Eli's trying to feed me a rock.
It's not, it's health food.
It's from the earth.
Eli, Eli, if you want to try eating healthy without breaking the bank, you should try Green Chef.
What's Green Chef?
Green Chef cuts through the noise delivering only real farm-sourced ingredients.
That sounds great.
It is. Reach your wellness goal with options like Mediterranean.
high protein, high fiber, plant-based, and more.
But have you actually tried it?
I sure have.
Green Chef sent us a box to try when they became a sponsor,
and their creamy mushroom pasta
became my go-to dinner to cook at home for more than a year.
That's why I, Eli Bosnick, personally endorse Green Chef.
All right, all right.
No, I'm in.
Where do I sign up?
Right now, go to greenchef.com slash awful graza
and use the code Awful Graza to get started with 50% off Green Chef,

That's code Awful Graza, G-R-A-Z-A at Greenchef.com slash awful graza.
All right, Noah, thanks.
At least Thomas liked his rock.
Yeah, it's fine.
That's only because you weren't paying attention and just ate what he handed you.
What?
Sure, yeah, I'll eat it.
Okay.
All right, everyone.
Welcome to the first ever writer's room meeting for no safe spaces.
Yeah.
Now, now, look, guys, this movie is really serious.
It's a chance for us to push back against the tide of liberal fascism that's overtaking this nation.
Totally.
Absolutely.
Oh, hey, everybody stop.
Where did you come from?
I'm from the future.
You guys have it all wrong.
We do?
Yes, Adam Carolla.
You do.
It turns out that the racist white supremacists are the actual fascists.
Oh, who would have thought?
Yeah, all the stuff we're worried about is actually just a cape for them to take power and do actual literal fascism.
Oh, for white supremacy?
For white supremacy!
Oh, well, that's great.
So glad to hear we're going to be a success, you guys.
Hooray!
Well, I...
Oh, you guys want...
You want the fascism?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, big time.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, okay.
Oh, shit.
Waste of a trip.
I could have killed Hitler.
Oh, that's okay. Heath and Eli just made up Hitler so they wouldn't get in trouble.
Really?
Yeah. You got to listen to all the shows.
Huh. Wow.
And we're back for the breakdown and we're going to join the action behind enemy lines, I guess, at UC Berkeley.
Can I say really fast? So this opens up with like dangerous documentaries.
And you guys know me. I was like, I'm going to find out who these people are.
And so it's not just the LLC they made for this one project.
No, no, it's not.
It's the media arm for Capital Research Center.
Oh.
You know, kind of conservative think tank.
And it was started by this guy named Joseph Klein, but he goes by Jake for some reason,
even though that's not actually like a nickname for Joseph.
And now he's with Heterodox Academy, wouldn't you believe it,
as their communications content manager.
And he's also the state director for Atheist for Liberty.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, okay.
That guy.
God, they're the worst.
And so, folks, if you watch this movie and, like, you're aching for more dangerous documentaries and Jake Klein, you can check out a series that they made called the politically incorrect guide to.
And then they list a bunch of different things.
Education, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Architects of Woke is also a series that they've done.
Architects of Woke.
Yeah.
The 1619 Project's Fake History is one of them.
The University's Shadow Activists is another.
And then America Under siege.
is another thing that they've done.
What you're saying is we have a lot of...
This is contact now.
A lot of good stuff.
Soviet Islam is the title of one of their things.
Really?
America under siege.
There's Soviet Islam is one of those.
Soviet Islam.
Antifa, of course.
And Civil War 2017.
Really?
I missed it.
Yes.
Okay.
Really, I missed it.
Discography there.
This is also with Madison McQueen Productions,
who I believe is Steve McQueen's granddaughter or something.
And yeah, so her production company does the Ted Cruz campaign videos from when he failed to make a presidential campaign.
Oh, really?
No, wait.
They did the famously awkward ones with the weird footage?
I think so.
I was looking through and I found like all the, you know, payments that he made to the production companies.
That's one of the funniest things still ever.
But she also did a Doritos commercial randomly, so, and this.
All right.
Fuck Doritos.
God damn.
That's the takeaway, yeah.
I wondered why that one Doritos.
commercial was really, really racist.
Now it's all going to be on there.
Just a bag in the
background while someone talks about white genocide.
They tried to make white Doritos
just as like you're the only pure white ones.
Gross.
It's just the...
No seasoning.
That was Eucharist.
Yeah.
So we see Dennis Prager.
He's trying to look cool with his slow motion cigar.
Also, I just want to point out,
they cut straight from Adam Carolla to a dumpster fire
in his own fucking.
movie.
They sure do.
Yeah.
That's a real cut that we get.
And of course, as we're seeing Dennis Prager and Adam Crowley, we're also seeing, like,
you know, chaos on American campuses and militarized cops that we're supposed to be
rooting for, apparently.
Yeah.
You know, those three times there's some bad stuff that, like, Berkeley and other places.
Yeah.
If you just keep showing that over and over, then it looks like the whole world.
And that was definitely the fault of the students and not the university.
that hired a small militia to hold back people with signs.
Yeah, yeah, right.
So then we get our title.
It says no safe spaces and then fucking Prager and Corolla reservoir dogs their way in.
It's so cringy, this entire entrance that they're coming through, like to enter this warehouse space for them to record and the doors.
Like, it's all slow motion and dramatic.
And I just, I wanted to die from the beginning.
This was very hard to watch.
And their middle-aged dad bodies.
Yeah.
Their little tummies pooching over their tightly cinched belts with their buttoned down shirts untucked with a wife beater underneath.
Yes.
So, but Dennis Brigger starts off by telling us that he knows all about tyranny.
You see, he went to the Soviet Union when he was 21.
One time I traveled to a different place.
Who did casting for this, too?
Because, like, I feel like that's not what Dennis Prager looked like.
Oh, my God.
It's so funny.
genuinely in a naked gun-esque parody of this movie,
you would not hire a hotter model as a joke.
Yeah, yeah.
Right, right.
He tells us this story,
and I'm sure you can't talk to Dennis Prager
for 14 fucking minutes
without him telling you about the three days he spent in Moscow
when he was 21 or whatever, right?
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
Was he like working for the Israelis?
Yeah.
Yeah, he said he was smuggling stuff into Russia
and smuggling stuff out of Russia
on behalf of Israel.
Because they were like trying to get names of Jews that were over there that, you know,
they needed to protect, I guess.
I don't know.
Yeah. I don't know the details of this.
Didn't bother to look it up.
I was kind of counting on Lydia to do that.
Also, everything Dennis Prager says is a lie.
Yes, right.
Yeah, exactly.
So if we looked up every lie that Dennis Prager took.
And everything Mossad says is a lie.
So we've just got so many letters.
Yeah.
Is there even a Russia?
Everything that Moscow says is a lie.
Fuck.
He was like, and he knew that his room was bugged.
This part of his story also really spoke to me too.
He knew he was bugged because only Westerners got rooms in this specific hotel, apparently, in the Soviet Union, which is fine.
And then so he knew he was bugged.
So then he just started like singing.
Yeah, this was insane.
Like Hebrew prayers, I guess, to troll the Russians.
And it shows like this dramatization of Russians listening in being flabbergasted by what they're hearing.
What I would have done if I was going to tell that story is, hey, no one picture this because then you'll see how stupid and insane it is.
But they made a different choice, which is like, let's literally picture this.
Let's hire some actors to shake their heads.
Yeah.
I'm surprised they got this good-looking model to even do that.
I don't think you'd be like, that's stupid.
I'm not an image to maintain here.
You can tell I'm quite good-looking.
And not to insult my people or anything, but Hebrew never sounds like a gotcha.
You never go,
Hachmulnerzai for no.
And someone goes, oh shit, here we go.
Totally.
We got a lot of strengths.
We own Hollywood.
A lot of stuff is going on really well for us.
But language to intimidate, not our train.
No.
I think it's also, like, remarkable in this flashback.
The way they set this up is, like,
they're setting the stage that the threat of free speech
that people are experiencing on college campus
can be equated to 20 million people being murdered.
in the Soviet Union.
So naturally, we can expect that in America.
Also, the Holocaust, we'll get there too.
Yeah, we'll get there.
Yeah, we're rolling them all into one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So now this movie is, of course, a outgrowth of a stage show
that these two did together.
Right.
So we're now going to check in on the stage show
where Adam Carolla and Dennis Prager
are like going to college campuses
talking about how they're not allowed to go to college campuses.
Yeah.
Oh, is this where they say?
And they're coming for us.
They're got like, they do a little bit in the...
Not yet.
Oh, really?
Oh, I thought that was when they were talking on the mics.
They say that an awful lot.
I don't know which time, but yeah.
But I think the one you're talking about, though, that that's not quite yet.
It's coming up, though.
So Adam Carolla, like, sort of introduces Dennis Prager in this show by saying, you know,
like a lot of people ask me why I'd be friends with a person like Dennis Prager.
And I'm like, well, it's because no good people will be your friend, Adam.
It's because you're a piece of fucking shit.
Conservatives.
Yeah, everyone stopped talking to you.
Yeah.
Right, right, yeah.
But this is where we get Lydia's best words,
where they say, you know,
we have almost nothing in common,
me and Dennis Prager,
me and this other well-to-do,
middle-aged white man
grew up in the same country.
Who makes his living, making podcasts to the same audience?
Yes.
So these are Adam Carolla's examples of how they're different.
Yes, yes.
East versus West.
That's number one.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Religion versus atheist.
slash pagan, okay, college educated versus tomfoolery and sports.
Yes, college and knowledge.
That's all, those are their differences.
Yeah.
Those are their differences.
But what brought them together is common sense and values.
Right.
Brings them together is lies about what the left is doing.
Yeah.
Right.
Which he describes as, quote, common sense and values.
Mm-hmm.
Right.
Yeah.
So over and over again, they're going to fall back on this values,
common sense and values buzzword without ever defining that, right?
without ever saying what that means
because they can't say what they're for
without it being bigotry.
Yeah. And to be clear, at one point he's giving,
he says, common sense and values should matter more than
LGBT or race or whatever, right?
And it's just him being hyperbolic,
but think about how genuinely psychotic you have to be
to think that your personal definition
of common sense and values should be more important
than race and sexual orientation.
Yes.
I know you're black, but let me explain what I think good and bad things are.
Elbow grease.
Yeah, what's the common sense?
And a little bit of foreshadow.
I know you're black, but hard work.
Yeah, we do get him.
It is kind of what he says, I guess.
Speaking at black people eventually.
Yeah, no, you're right.
Oh, it's great.
Yeah, you have that to look forward to.
You mean when he loses nine arguments in a road to black people?
They don't know.
So fear that he loses that hard because they're kids.
They're really just kids.
So, okay.
So, but now we have to check out Adam's sweet garage and his.
at his collection of race cars and shit.
He's got a Pac-Man machine.
I wrote my notes.
I'm not impressed.
If you were a gamer,
you'd have Miss Pac-Man.
If you were a collector,
you'd have a cocktail table.
So, yeah, and he's explaining to us
that the social safety net
made his mother weak.
And then if she hadn't had that,
she would have pulled herself up
by those unused bootstraps that she had.
He's told this story for 20-something years.
His mom is pretty.
I believe this about his one mom,
but like it doesn't, that's his whole shtick is that he has a very specific life.
Yeah.
Adam Carole has a very specific life that he did grow up with nothing with shitty parents
and he worked really hard and got lucky and it was funny and made a good career.
And then he was on crank-hackers.
Well, and he's, I mean, he had a good, like, he's a carpenter.
Like he did, it does have a good story of worked hard and made it and blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, he's like literally pulled himself up by the bootstraps kind of thing.
Yeah, it's just like he just assumes that, you know, is what every single person could do.
and if you don't do it, then you're just lazy.
And so your whole politics is based on like, look, everyone should get exactly as lucky as I did.
Well, but I also want to point out this whole, like, my mom was a welfare queen thing.
Because he points this out as like a personal failing of his mothers and also a failure of the system for having given her welfare in the first place.
The alternative would have been him starving in infancy, I guess.
He probably hasn't thought that all the way through.
But the other thing that you could say here is like, hey, why don't we construct a fucking society where
this woman thinks that there's something for her that's better than welfare.
Right?
Because for a lot of people, there just isn't, right?
There just isn't a world out there.
There aren't bootstraps for them to fucking pull on.
And if we made the world a little bit more equitable, people wouldn't feel like, yeah,
but the odds that I'm going to do better with a job than I'm doing with welfare would be very
low.
Yeah.
Right?
That's the message you should probably take away from it.
Yeah.
Like wage growth kind of thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And statistically, when we take away the social safety net, people do not, in fact, pull themselves
up by their bootstress.
their baby, Adam Carolla, dies.
Starved to death, yes.
Yeah.
Right.
Maybe he's thinking he would have bootstrapped himself some milk, right?
Maybe he would have just, excuse me, ma'am.
Yeah, he's also firmly against school lunches because the parents should have to do it.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
No, of course.
Hot tip, if anyone watches this, though, anytime they do a flashback, they do like the drunk
history style where the actor mouths the thing that the grown-up person is saying off-screen.
And if you just picture it, like a drunk history episode,
it's so much more enjoyable.
Okay.
So that helped me get through some of those scenes.
So, but yeah, so and they're talking about,
they start talking about the First Amendment.
They're going to spend a lot of time sucking free speeches dick.
This is where Dennis Prager starts talking about when he was a kid and they were out
playing stickball and somebody said something that they didn't like,
why that person would say, well, this is American.
We're a free country.
And we'd be like, First Amendment, we do have to follow constitutional law here out on the stick ball.
I'm a five-year-old.
And I follow the first one.
I'll defend to the death.
You're right.
Actually, I think that
Jimmy, I think that expression's really been maligned
from the conventional meeting with you.
I'm not having this fight with you again, Chuckie.
You misattribute the code anyway.
And then we get into the comment about
the real question is, how long until they come
from my job or your job?
So funny.
I mean, to Noah's point earlier
about how they're touring the country
saying they can't tour the country,
It's pretty funny to be like,
we're, we're dead.
They're canceled.
We're going to be canceled.
We're dead.
They're going to kill us.
Anyway, I'm the most downloaded podcast.
Yeah.
And you have a billion views.
Yes.
A billion views on YouTube.
Anyway, we're,
we're coming for us.
We're dead.
We can't even say anything anymore.
But if you want the perfect fucking irony of it,
that this is the other half of the duo.
Like when Adam Carolla first really became a fucking thing,
the other half of his duo was Jimmy Kimmel,
who was actually taken off the fucking air by he.
his goddamn side in an attack that he's warning that we're going to fucking do.
Yep.
Oh, it's insane.
It's insane that it's this easy.
You might as well jump on a secret alien technology that can communicate to all of Earth,
every human in their brains at one time and go like, everybody, I'm being silenced.
I'm being oppressed.
Yes.
People of Earth, I'm being oppressed.
They won't let me.
I can't say anything anymore.
Dennis Breaker has this great moment towards the end
where he's explaining why,
because they have to kind of answer
why people don't want them talking, right?
And he's like, we're not enemies of goodness.
And can I say that if part of your argument
has to be clarifying
that you are not an enemy of goodness,
maybe it's time to stop and check in with yourself.
I've never been like, let me say at the outset
that I'm not an enemy of goodness.
It's always just been assumed.
It's weird that you've never had to clarify that.
I don't know, I feel like you've had to say that a few times.
I've had to say that about it.
I think I've just been open that sometimes I'm an enemy of goodness.
You've had to assure people that Eli is not an enemy of goodness before.
But that's a weird example.
Yeah, right.
But so, okay, so now we cut to December of 2016 when Dennis and Adam were supposed to talk
at California State University of North, whatever, until...
North Ridge, yeah.
North Ridge, okay. Thank you.
Until cancel culture came for them, right?
Yeah.
And look, it doesn't bother them for themselves that their cancel culture came
them. It bothers them because it hurts America.
Yes. Yes. Because where else are we going to hear the same fucking thing that's been the
zeitgeist of the entire country for fucking 100 years? Yes. That's the whole thing of every
part of this. Every single time they talk about being silenced or hearing views you don't like
or you got to hear things you disagree. Just picture you just have to hear someone say trans people
don't count. Yep. For the four millionth time. I've heard it. Yep. We've heard it.
They've heard it.
The college students have heard it.
We've all heard it.
You don't, there's not, you're not losing anything by not having the same fucking stupid
shit over and over.
God.
In fact, our points would not even make sense unless we assumed a knowledge of your points
to begin with, right?
Like we, we couldn't be against the thing that you're defending if we didn't already know
what you were defending.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
Now, quick fact checking on this piece here.
And, you know, because we're getting Adam Corolla and Dennis Prager,
Love a good Lydia fact check.
Position on what happened at CSU Northridge that they were canceled two weeks before.
The school's position is that it was not approved for purely logistical reasons.
And quote, based on the typical end of semester increased activity, the university corporation, the entity and nonprofit that handles rental negotiations for them, determined that this rental request could not be accommodated.
At no point was the rental approved.
Oh, really?
Presentatives made an inquiry and logistics could not be accommodated.
Oh, so. Wow.
Yeah, because they totally presented it as like, well, we were totally ready to go.
Yeah.
Everybody was clamoring for us to say the same stupid, fucking transphobic point over and over.
The president and executive director of that nonprofit said,
I can't have my people scrambling at the last minute.
Availability is the first step, not the last one.
And there were enough dangling loose ends for me to deny the request for their sake and
hours.
We need to start from scratch.
I want this event to occur.
the police department will determine the necessary level of security.
Wow.
And spoiler alert, every single talk that you're going to hear being canceled in this fucking movie is,
and then three days before the talk, they were like,
by the way, we brought the ghost of Adolf Hitler.
Is that cool?
Can we use the gym during the basketball game?
The other fungant of thing that you have to keep in mind is that every one of them that they talk about
getting canceled goes ahead and happens, right?
Because they do talk at CISO.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They do every single fucking one of these actually happens.
The worst one for the only bad example was like the Berkeley stuff got a little weird.
And then they like to complain to court and they won.
And now they have like people have to pay a million dollars for Nazi security so that they can have their Nazi talk.
And it's just they're privileged at every turn.
Like there's no sense in which you're being oppressed ever.
This is just a documentary of the guy holding the boot on his head.
Just show a picture of that.
It's the whole goddamn thing.
Threes of windows were broken.
And I think we can all say that I can't think of any college event where there's
public destruction of property.
Not since any sports team won.
Yes, one.
Not since any sports team at the middle school level or hotter.
One anything ever.
We should make a fucking scare documentary about like this about the dangers of winning with football.
Yeah.
Yes.
That's a good idea, actually.
So, okay, so now it's time to check in with Yikyak.
That's right.
We're cutting to October 3.
That's a deep cut.
You had to know.
Fuck yeah, baby.
Following Eli for a long time.
We cut to October 30th of 2015 when Yale set out some guidelines for Halloween costumes.
We all remember this, yeah.
Yes, yeah.
What do you mean we all remember this, hon?
You were doing state work.
You had regular people job.
I listened to your shows, though, so I know about it via you.
Do you believe her?
I don't think she listens.
Oh, my God.
You were like, who's that guest you had on the show for the first time?
He sounded handsome.
I don't know much, but I know that everything he said was true and that he sounded handsome.
I hope I meet him in New York one day.
That's why.
It escorts me around the subway system.
See?
That's exactly how it happened.
Yeah, but this was the story, in case anybody forgot or didn't know, was that they sent out this guideline that said,
hey, try not to do racist costumes.
don't dress as a fucking American Indian
as your goddamn Halloween costume.
Don't do blackface or whatever.
And this one dude comes out and says,
I think it's okay if you do those things.
Nicholas Christakis.
Well, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The wife came out okay.
Yeah, yeah.
And it like, it was,
I remember that's funny because Eli was,
here's the thing that's funny about this history is
Eli was vociferously of the opinion
that the wife who wrote the letter was horrible.
And me and Cecil and Tom,
to the point where Eli did what he does,
and made up a bunch of facts to support that.
Thank you.
That put Eli, this was like the first foray really into this for me and for like,
well, I won't speak for Cecil and Tom, but it was one of the first for like us as a group.
And so we had to be like, okay, well, those are good points, Eli, but I checked this and that's wrong.
And then this is also not true.
And then so it put us in a weird position where it was like, yeah, I don't, okay.
I mean, I don't really see, like, because to me the email wasn't that bad.
And then, you know, the next 10 years was.
every single time that side,
like Eli's side of the argument was correct,
but Eli just started off by
Eliing it with the facts that weren't right.
It'll kind of like primed us the wrong way.
It'll eventually turn out to be true.
I'm a men cat. I don't know
this point in the timeline I'm on.
You might be right at this point. I'm not
going to strongly disagree with you there.
But just to remind everybody what this
story was, right, is that she just said the like,
because keep in mind, her answer was she
said on an email, which was fucking
sassy as shit.
That's, it's, yeah.
where she was like, hey, if you see a Halloween costume you don't like,
the example, of course, was blackface.
If you see a Halloween costume you don't like, look the other way.
And they were like, huh?
And then Nick, who we see the clip of, we see him getting yelled at by children, right?
Nick was like, I challenge these children to a Lincoln Douglas debate.
And 19-year-olds did not behave well.
Gasp.
Yes.
Yeah.
Gasp.
Gasp.
So let me speak to just the.
clip that we see in the documentary
here, which is him saying,
I'm here to listen to you and then
shushing them every time they try to fucking talk.
That's what we actually
see happen. I don't want to do, you know,
we can't dive all the way into every one of these things.
But that's the clip that they chose
to show, right? Was this
guy just, you know, offering to listen
to a bunch of kids and then interrupting them every
six words to tell them that they were wrong about
their own goddamn experiences with racism?
Right. And the point was,
right, that Nicholas Christov is a liberal
he's a liberal teacher at Yale
and all of a sudden these liberal students
just came out of nowhere and attacked him.
Nicholas Christoppe has spent
the rest of his life.
Christakis.
Yeah, you're talking about a different guy.
Offering the single worst opinions
anyone has ever had.
I love at the end of this whole thing
as they introduced this whole story or whatever.
At the end of it, Adam tries to do this joke
about Dennis Prager dressing as Kevin Hart.
And Dennis reacts like when the voibed called
dies in the middle of Heath's set up, you know?
He's like, what?
I didn't dress as Kevin Hutt.
Who is Kevin Hugg?
Oh, that's so true.
So that, okay, so then we check in on Dennis.
He's on his way to the airport.
And he's like, oh, I'm very important.
I go to a lot of airports.
And I'm like, oh, where are you going?
He's like, Wyoming.
I'm like, you can't be important and be going to Wyoming, man.
I'm so sorry.
But yeah, but he's got to talk in Wyoming.
And he's like, oh, I'm sure I'll be fine in Wyoming.
There's no cancel culture there.
Dun, dun, done, done.
Oh, man.
This was the thing that I, are we on that one?
The thing that I tried to, I decided to look.
Here's what I thought, there's so much bullshit in this.
We got to, like, triage our bullshit.
And this was the one I decided to look into.
And so give me a sec, but then I just won't talk that much to the show.
So I guess we hear they're going to try to stop his speech.
And I went back and I was like tracking what actually happened here.
And some people protested his speech.
And the way he presents it,
Eli, how does he present their argument against him?
Like, why were kids mad about him coming?
Anybody for the room?
They called me an anti-Semite.
Well, so they called me a sexist, a racist, homophobic, a misogynist, and an anti-Semite, right?
And his actual argument is, I'm not that last thing.
Yes.
And, you know, like, it's funny because he even says, like, he's very much quoting, he's like, noted anti-Semite.
I search for that and I cannot find a single thing that says that.
There's nothing that says it now.
No, and there's nothing in the documentary.
They don't present like an image of it or anything.
They do show one sign.
They do show one sign that does say,
they list the bigotries that they don't want on campus because of,
and it does say Dennis Prager and the first one is anti-Semitism, racism,
whatever.
So a kid listed anti-Semitism as one of the bigotries in a sign.
And what's great is he says that, he uses that to say,
see, they have to make you out to be the worst person
because then they don't have to debate you
because they can't debate us.
But what he's doing is he's picking one word
from one kid's sign
and he's using that to not debate
any of the actual things that the kids had a problem with.
It's always like he's doing the thing he's saying they're doing.
Because if you look into it,
a lot of the student protesters, yeah, there's some, you know,
yeah, super lefty liberal kids that were 18, 19 who say dumb things.
That's all of college, whatever, people say dumb things.
If we went to all the fucking conservative schools
and saw the dumb shit they'd say,
First off, they're the president.
Oh, well, we saw what they were doing in private, too.
Like, we know what kinds of dumb stuff they're saying.
Yeah, exactly.
And they're running the country.
Yeah.
Secondly, sometimes kids say dumb things, but they also said a lot of correct things.
And one of the things they said is, hey, the fucking student association gave this group $10,000
to bring Dennis Prager there.
And they're like, here, I'll go to an actual quote.
One of the students, they asked, very smartly and reasonably said, the University of Wyoming
and Wyoming, and more generally, is in a fiscal crisis.
At what point do we draw the line and say, you know,
we should spend our resources on things like the Veterans Center
or how about the non-Trad Center?
How about the LGBTQ Resource Center?
How about the mental health services on campus?
How about student health services on campus?
Can we put this money to a better cause other than bringing this, frankly,
bigot to speak at the University of Wyoming?
It's unconscionable.
Yeah.
Because they got $10,000 fucking dollars.
Yeah, don't mention that in the documentary, too, they.
No.
And, well, and after he complains that,
know, there's some fucking sign called him an anti-Semite of, you know, one of the 43,000 arguments against him.
Adam Krola goes, yeah, it's weird.
The Los Angeles Times called you a bigot.
How could they get away with that?
And I'm like, yeah, that's weird because they're a reputable paper with cited sources and everything.
And if you weren't a bigot, you could probably sue them for saying that and you didn't.
I also couldn't find that.
But I, but I, maybe it happened.
I don't know.
I couldn't find it at a glance.
But so the thing that's funny about this is apparently the reason this happened is it was kind of like a first
come first served basis in terms of applying for this funding.
And the amount that you could get was related to the amount that you paid and was
capped at 10,000.
And naturally, when you bring the fucking right wing asshole, it's a lot of money and
they just got the 10,000 right away.
And people are like, well, there's not really much money left for like anybody else now.
So the next year, they actually punished this group because they violated a few.
I'll be honest, like a few like tiki-daki rules about like the posters they put up for this.
But they were pissed.
So they just like didn't let them bring anybody the next semester or whatever.
year or whatever. And wouldn't you know it? That blew up in the newspaper and all the conservative
coverage about the TPUSA group was silence. But what's also funny about this and it was interesting
little deep dive. So they say somewhere amongst this, they talk about how this is just
unprecedented. And there's more later, but just to coalesce that into a quick thought here,
this is never happened before. The free speech is unprecedented. It's so bad, so bad. In the article
that I looked at for the, that was like the student newspaper, I think, or maybe it was a Laramie
paper, I can't remember, which it talks about how, yeah, well, this reminds us of in 2010,
when 1960s anti-war activists Bill Ayers was banned from speaking at UW after donors, politicians,
and others applied pressure to the university to drop him, even though the subject of his speech
wasn't controversial, but was about education reform.
It's such nonsense.
They're like, oh, it's never been this bad before.
I'm like, motherfuckers in the 50s, McCarthy could have you.
blacklisted for suggesting a carpool.
What the fucking is never been this bad.
Yes, and it was just this bad during the Iraq War
and the Bush one years, which was not,
was a mere six years before this or whatever.
You know, like super close.
And what's interesting about the UW thing,
and I think it's just such a telling little microcosm of what happens here.
Because if you haven't listened to where there's woke or anything else that talks about
this, this is just such an easy argument to appeal to free speech values.
It sounds so nice.
you can show the screaming kids.
And it's just so powerful to show those things combined.
And then a bunch of white people lie about how they're not allowed to say anything.
It's a really powerful argument.
Let's be honest, it worked and it won the day.
Like it beat us.
And now we have fascism.
It's so powerful.
But what the trick of it is, and it's the same trick with everything else,
is that this isn't just happening to conservatives and they're so victimized and blah, blah, blah.
When it happens to people on the left, like anti-war activists,
there's not an entire infrastructure.
just this outrage machine
that would put it everywhere.
That doesn't happen.
So Bill Ayers or Iers
doesn't get 400 stories
about how he was banned
and then they all in lockstep
talk about it forever.
It's just a casual aside
in the newspaper article
that admittedly this was a good newspaper.
Like it wasn't like one of the shitty ones.
And if you look at a real newspaper,
it's like, yeah, you know, this happened
fucking five years ago.
This happens all the time.
It's not a big deal.
Literally just happened.
And Ayers had to sue
to actually get them to let them speak.
But what's so funny also
is when you see what's happening
with Dennis Prager, these students,
these students use their speech
to protest.
Yep.
And it's the students.
And they protested the money
and they had a real reason.
And in fact, UW board trustee said
they were impressed by the general civility
on campus over Prager's visit.
She wondered if Wyomingites
had learned the value of free speech
from the Bill Ayers debacle
because they just
peacefully protested. It was quiet. The event went off without a hitch.
When it was the anti-left thing, when it was the anti-war protester, that was like the fucking president, you know, the politicians and people with my, like people with actual power applied their pressure to stop.
This was students didn't want to happen at their school. It's just not even close to the same. Right. Right. Well, and then, you know, as, as they're lining up to tell us how they're the good guys and everything, we also see a fucking Ben Shapiro.
trying to give a talk at some college and the, well, the students don't want him there either.
He's, you know, another white person telling us how valueless racial diversity is in this fucking documentary.
Their montage of oppressed speakers are Ben Shapiro, Charles Murray.
Yes.
By the way, real quick, and I know we're running long, but I do have to talk about this.
I had forgotten that the lady pretended to have a concussion and whiplash after someone hit her.
They're like, the protest was so hard she had whiplash.
I'm like, what?
How?
No, to be there, she did get booped.
She got booped on the snoot.
No, a dog to deny her pain.
She was boop it upon the snoot by a rabid protester, and it gave her concussion and whiplash, which
is why she's wearing a neck brace, like a cartoon.
Yes, yes.
Right, right, exactly.
She might as well also have like a crutch and a big old cast on her leg.
Yeah, they've got fucking, they trot out a clip of Bill Maher saying that the woke
have gone too far.
But he's one of us.
Yeah, right.
Surely.
And then, of course,
we get everybody
reacting to Milo Yanopolis.
Yeah.
And there's just,
there's footage that they
are putting together
like it was one horrible night
of, you know,
violence and destruction.
This was over the period
of eight months, by the way,
all the UC Berkeley footage
that they do.
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Eight months of protests.
Jesus.
And there was over that period,
like six minor injuries,
right?
They keep saying,
like,
and everything,
turned violent.
It's like,
violent is a little bit of a stretch here.
But it's also worth pointing out,
like the entire fucking M.O of all of these people is say the most outrageous shit
you can say online so that a fucking protest will happen like this when you go to
the college,
which acts as free publicity for your talk at the college, right?
Yes.
And it's an in for,
you know,
the most downloaded podcast in the world,
which would like to talk to you about how canceled you are.
Of course.
Yeah.
And just a quick reminder for anyone who wants to feel good
because there's a lot of unpunished villains in this movie.
I just want to remind you that now, Milo Unopoulos makes a book on tape of the Bible
and threw his wedding ring into the ocean for Rick Wiles' audience.
Oh, no.
So I would not have sentenced him to the fate he ended up with.
Hey, Eli, why did he get canceled?
Was it because he murdered someone?
Was it cool?
Did he kidnap someone?
Oh, no, it was because he said words.
that the Wright eventually decided, oh, wait, there are words that we don't like.
And those words were weird stuff about kind of like having sex with underage kids or something.
Yeah.
It was weird.
But the point is, their whole thing was how you shouldn't ever cancel anything.
Just listen to the argument.
And then he said a thing.
He didn't do anything.
He said a thing that was too far for them.
And they're like, well, never mind.
Fuck that guy.
Well, actually, we will cancel him ourselves.
Sorry, that guy says the thing that we're not in support of yet.
In a couple years, so a president is going to be.
Yeah, right.
It's allowed.
You could do it.
Those kids were lucky to get fucked by Trump.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
So then we check it on fucking Lady Liberty,
whose mouth has been taped closed.
Oh, God, right-wingers love that image, don't they?
Yeah, they sure do.
Oh, they love it so much.
We meet Greg Lukinoff.
He's the president of the foundation
for individual rights in education or fire.
He was a big defender of free speech
until it was actually threatened,
and at which point he became a very meek defender.
Yeah, their latest press releases, whistle look around, whistle look around.
So, okay, so now we're going to learn some U.S. history from Adam Carolla, so that's going to be wrong.
Sure is.
Sure is.
We are, this is what we're going to open with.
We are the only country with free speech in the whole world.
Guys, we're not even in the green.
I watched this the same day that the fact.
federal government arrested black independent journalists.
Yep.
How freaking dark.
Like,
I was watching that,
shut up.
Didn't he shut up?
Yeah.
So, yeah, so, no, the U.S. is currently ranked 56th, by the way, in press freedom.
And that was before they arrested Don Lemon and all those guys.
We were right between Sierra Leone and the Gambia.
When this came out, we were 48th.
We dropped significantly since then.
Some guy with an AK-47 in Gambia is like, well, we're not arresting journals.
That's too far.
That's too far.
What are we Americans?
He goes through a bunch of examples.
I just checked one for fun where he's like, and get this.
In Canada, a preacher was arrested.
Forget this.
Preaching.
Okay, looked it up real quick.
This is a fun one.
The dude went into an LGBTQ area of town during Pride Month with a megaphone and preached
anti-queer bullshit for two hours.
Oh, my gosh.
For two hours with a megaphone.
People asked him to stop a bunch of times.
He didn't stop.
Then the police came.
came and asked him to stop a bunch of times.
He didn't stop.
Then, after not stopping, they're like, well, okay, we're arresting you because you've been doing
this for hours.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then that's all it was.
And then he was released on bail.
I'm glad I wrote down in my notes.
I just wrote, I don't trust Adams framing on any of this stuff that happened in other
countries.
And thank you for demonstrating that with that fact check.
I assume you all checked all the other ones.
No, we got the rest of the man.
Did we get Hitler pug guy?
Yes.
In England, you can get arrested for teaching your pub.
I mean, that's basically true, but like, fuck that guy.
Yeah.
And here was, here was an interesting one.
We also got a defense of Bridget Bardot.
Oh, yeah, we did.
Yeah, for a little throwback.
So for those of you who don't remember,
Bridget Burdow was pretty and then spent the rest of her life being like,
Muslims.
But Adam will tell it it was because she was criticizing animal sacrifice.
And my friends, I'm no fan of Islam, but I will tell you,
she was not criticizing animals.
She mentioned it.
It was part of the scree.
Yeah, right, right.
But they're like, yeah, you know, in America, like everywhere else in the world,
the cops can come and arrest you if you make a joke they don't like.
And I'm like, the rest of the world, huh?
Everywhere about us.
Yeah, yeah.
So, okay, but then we learned a little bit about the history of free speech.
Apparently that started in the 60s, didn't have it until then.
Hey, Dennis, what were they talking about in the 60s?
What was the argument about, Dennis?
And importantly, what side of that was your side on?
Yeah, right.
Right. Janice.
Yeah, this is where Greg actually says that this is the most dangerous.
I'm sorry, quote, the most distressing phase for free speech in American history.
Yeah, ever.
Jesus.
Well, and if you listen to also Dr. Colleen Sheehan, who was at Villanova at the time, she's no longer at Villanova, professor, she said, quote, we're not sure if we even believe in freedom anymore.
Yes, yes.
Wow.
Wow.
Colleen.
Yeah.
Get it together, maybe.
We do, we do, Colleen.
I don't know if they've told you since.
Yeah.
This is where I Googled what Adam Carolla's most recent appearance was.
And in case you guys were wondering, it's a couple weeks ago he was on Fox News attacking Hollywood for being too mean to ice.
Oh.
So just in case we're all clear on where Adam Carolla stands on Freedom of speech, that's where he's currently laying on.
You mean the actual jackbooted thugs?
He used that term a hundred times a show, Jack Booted Thugs, Jack Booted Thugs.
Really?
And now we actually have the actual ones.
Now that I think about it, those boots are actually pretty stylish.
Yeah.
They just need leaked clean as awesome.
Soft boots.
Yeah.
So, and then with, they do the I'm only a bill thing with the First Amendment.
Oh, God.
Was that that, did they do that for this?
I couldn't tell.
I was like, is this original content or do they?
Yeah, because they're supposed to be little kid Adam Carolla and little kid Dennis
Prager.
That was, yeah.
Well, but other times they show an entire.
Little kid Dennis Trigger still has gray hair, though.
Yeah, that's true.
But I wasn't sure if they made that for something else because they showed an entire South Park, like,
episode early, you know, during part of this.
You do that? Okay.
Okay.
God admit, pretty cool call forward when the people in the van and masks show up and shoot an unarmed person they don't like.
Ah, you got us.
Yeah, that's what we do.
It's supposed to be the left.
Our cartoonish exaggeration about what we think turns out to be the facts of what we would do when we grabbed control.
Yep.
That's what we were fighting for this whole time.
Yeah, and then, okay, so then we go back to Adam and Dennis doing their stage show that they're not allowed to do.
how canceled they are.
And this is where Dennis Prager explains
that most people don't want freedom.
They really just want to be taken care of.
I'd also like to be taken care of, though.
I mean, like, whatever.
This is the speech of a villain in a bond movie.
It is.
He's explaining why he's going to release a chemical weapon.
You want someone to tell you where to go.
Most people don't want freedom.
Every goddamn thing Dennis Prager says
would sound more normalized
if you started it with you see Mr. Bond.
Yes.
Wow.
Honestly, the worst thing about Dennis Breaker speeches
is that we are not chained to a table
while a slow laser cuts us in half.
Yeah, really?
You're right.
Although it feels like it.
Oh, it even has the animations
that the bad guys always have.
Yeah.
Like, who animated that?
Well, now we know, yeah.
Yeah, the animations are terrible.
Here's the thing about,
you know how everything's AI now and it sucks.
But at least when something sucks,
you can be like,
they should use AI.
This is pretty.
the AI stuff.
So it just sucks.
Yeah.
It just sucks.
Just plain sucks on the merit.
I bet you that was like donated from Prager You by the way because they have like an
entire like education series of videos where they do animation there.
They have to draw Columbus and make them super nice and like awesome to the natives.
He loved.
The natives loved Columbus.
It was so nice.
So yeah.
But this is where they talk about this Pew survey that says 49% of young people don't believe in free speech for hate speech.
right? They don't believe that it should extend to hate speech. Now, there's no legal definition for what hate speech is. So that's a little bit of a squirly thing, right? Because I think different people mean different things or take away different definitions. So I think when people say that they're against free speech for hate speech, they're talking about like slurs and speech that's meant to incite violence against a minority, right? Which we already don't have free speech for. Right. There is restrictions.
on that kind of speech.
Right.
Any reasonable reading of this question is,
do you believe that current laws
about incitement to violence
should exist?
Right.
And only half of young people
are like, yes.
Well, yeah, right, exactly,
which is terrifying.
But the way that Dennis Prager
frames it in their little stage show
is that half of,
like, 49% of people
don't think there should be free speech
for speech that you personally hate.
Yeah, yeah.
He frames this even as free speech
doesn't apply to love speech.
Yes, right.
Yeah, yeah, the old trope of like, it's not, free speech isn't for speech you agree with.
It only matters when speech you don't agree.
It's like, okay, sure.
But if you were to poll conservatives about, okay, should people be allowed to say Jesus fucking sucks or something?
You get like 100% no.
You know, it's like they don't care about free speech.
Absolutely.
Also, I would like to ban love speech.
Like, you ever there at a restaurant and a couple next to you were like, you might snooking with?
I would love for them to be arrested, maybe shot in the back of the heads.
kind of public execution style thing.
So we find something that you and Dennis Brueger can agree on.
So, okay.
And Lottkas.
So then we had to Kingsborough Community College in Brooklyn.
And I love it.
So the actual U of Prager U is 26 board kids at a community college in Brooklyn
who clearly don't want to be there.
Right.
And he just instantly loses the conversation to them.
Yeah.
Right?
He's like, do you think Nachie should speak?
And she's like, no, they're hateful.
And he's like, yes.
But wait, I have to make up a future.
But if you stop the Nazis from speaking now, then later, they'll stop the not Nazis.
It's slippery slope.
It's an informal fallacy.
Informal fallacy.
Yeah.
Hear me out.
Maybe we just actually tell all the non-Nazis they can't speak because our country is an
idiot who was tricked by no tagbacks.
Yes.
Maybe that's what ends up happening.
Oh, my God.
He goes, he goes, you know, who here thinks that you should be free to say,
whatever you want and all the white boys in the class raised their hand.
Finally, yes.
Tennis gets it.
Yaw, bra.
Fuck.
But this ultimately resolves with them on the podcast, still telling the story about how they were canceled from C-Sun, but then they weren't because they got to go there anyway.
Yep.
Yep.
Yeah.
But they want to claim that it's because their lawyers wrote a letter and it scared C-Sun.
Yeah, that's not true.
But it's only because they, again, that's their perspective, I guess.
Yeah, right.
All right, so it looks like the cancellation they made their whole stupid fucking movie about didn't actually happen, but somehow the movie doesn't end there.
So there will be more of it after the break.
Lindsay, thanks so much for coming in.
No problem, gentlemen.
First of all, we just want to say how much we admire your story of bravery.
Thank you.
So we were thinking about the clips that we would poll from your story.
Obviously, we'll show Jordan Peterson calling a trans person a disgusting threat to freedom.
You know, the one used as a grammar lesson.
Yeah, that's great.
And then we were thinking we could use some of your secretly recorded gotcha footage.
Yeah, of course.
What did you want to use?
I was thinking we could use the clip where you pretend not to understand the thing they just explained to you.
Yeah, but don't worry, we're only going to use the second half, so it won't be as obvious that you're lying.
Oh, sneaky.
I know, and then we'll use the clip where you begin crying because the lie you thought of in the shower didn't work on the adults who you told it to.
That's how you know I was being the rational one.
Exactly. Yes, exactly.
Anything else?
Oh, we're going to tell everyone that you lost your lawsuit.
Why?
We just want to.
Got it.
And we're back for more of this shit.
We're going to rejoin the action on stage at C-Soon,
knocking down that whole silly notion of white privilege.
Adam's going to tell us about a debate he had with, quote,
a black fella.
A black fella.
A black fella.
He was talking to one of them blacks.
Does not manage to recall that fella's name.
You don't want to say which one?
No?
No, just one of them.
Just one of them.
And why don't you know it?
White privilege does not exist because Adam didn't go to college.
Well, and what's funny is he goes, let's examine my white privilege.
And then everything he names has nothing to do with white privilege.
Nothing at all.
It's just I was poor.
I also want to point out that he's,
He did go to fucking college.
That's how much of a fucking liar, this lying fucking liar is.
He goes, I didn't have no white privilege.
I didn't go to college.
Like, you did go to college.
You were put on academic probation immediately and then you dropped out, you son of a bitch.
But it's so minor because, like, again, that has nothing to fucking white privileges.
You went to fucking college.
Yeah.
Right?
He never engages with the term white privilege whatsoever.
He says, I didn't have white privilege.
I did menial jobs.
And I'm like, is the unspoken second half of that fucking sentence?
it's just like a black guy?
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, he's making it.
It's the reason that he is how he is in a lot of, you know, like white people who are not.
The truth is, a lot of white people aren't doing great in this country because of capitalism.
Yep.
Sure.
But they still have white privilege because they don't have to deal with systemic racism.
But it's hard for them to fathom what that would be.
We're not good as a species.
And why would you Google a term just because you don't know what it is?
Right.
Because you're furious about it.
that has nothing to do with it.
There's a fucking one-sheater
cartoon called Unpacking the Backpack
of White Privilege.
And everyone you read it to goes,
oh yeah, I guess that is true about it.
And everyone I have ever showed
infamous YouTube trolls.
I've showed that piece of paper too, and they've been like,
oh, is that what it is? And I'm like, yeah.
And they've gone, I've heard it means other things.
And I'm like, that's because Republicans learn at you for a living.
You gobble it up.
But Eli, what about white unprivileged?
like when he wanted to be a fireman
and he couldn't get a callback
because they were only hiring the blacks
and the ladies.
Thomas, you said this is a story
he talked about all the time.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, for young conservative,
Thomas, this shit slapped so hard.
Oh, man.
You have no idea how dumb I was.
They want Latina fire ladies so fucking bad.
Yeah, his story of he's a white dude
so he applied to be a fireman and then...
Six years later.
He took six years for that to call.
And then like when he got there,
he asked a, what, a black woman or something?
I don't remember how he tells it.
Yeah, a woman of color.
A woman of color, how long since she had applied and she says, Tuesday.
It's like, if only we could find an example of a person of a different race having trouble finding employment because of their race.
I guess that would probably not this argument down.
It was just the white folks.
Okay.
It is, however, amazing because every white bigot has this story, right?
When you actually ask them to drill down, every professional bigot will be like, well, I was waiting in line at Chamba Juice.
And a Haitian man said, I think this is my fresco Americano.
And I said, oh, I think I ordered before you.
And then he just took it and walked away, which is why I have helped literal fascism rise to power for a living ever since.
Like, there's never anyone who's got a good story.
No.
I got caught off by a Chinese in traffic.
now I traveled back in time and brought Hitler in the future so he can be president.
Oh my God.
Even in his fucking stories, like I didn't really want to be a fireman anymore anyway.
So, okay.
And then, okay, so I'm not sure if you guys know this, but the Oxford English dictionary
defines the laziest possible segue in the universe as they genuinely come up with the
fucking dictionary definition of the word safe space, right?
Yeah.
So now it's time for them.
to get all mad about safe spaces.
Adam goes like, I never went to college,
but I thought college was a place for ideas, not safe spaces.
Turns out it's a place for some ideas, but not others.
Oh, shit.
He says ominously.
Yeah, I would agree with that.
Well, yeah.
It's usually you want to get like the right ideas of how to do stuff.
It's correct stuff.
Geography, history.
I got so many emails about how wrong I was about safe spaces.
Oh, you like, safe spaces at the beginning of the end.
You all fucking wrote.
You wrote me so many tweets, didn't you?
And this one you were just right on.
And that one I agreed with the picture.
Like, wow, you like, good points.
And then I was like, no, really.
I was like, okay, that's, I can you.
The secret was for me not to lie.
Yeah.
But here's the thing, though, about their dictionary definition.
Despite starting with the dictionary definition,
they kind of lie about what safe spaces.
are, right? Because they say, like, they define safe spaces correctly, but then they imply that, like,
the entire campus is a safe space, right? That not, that like, safe spaces aren't like a place
that is designated for like, hey, let's set all our racist bullshit aside over here, right,
or whatever. They never even imply that. If you didn't already know that, you wouldn't know it
from the documentary, right? You would think that you're just not allowed to talk about the shit.
Oh, you would have no idea. Yeah. Yeah, what a safe space is from the documentary. It doesn't
tell you any meaningful definition of it.
Right.
Well, especially when they can get people like Van Jones on Adam Carolla.
Oh, my fucking God.
Just basically saying like any...
We talk about that now?
Yeah.
Just any sort of thoughts or ideas that you're confronted with.
Like, it makes you feel bad.
And so you're not allowed to like engage in any of that stuff then.
Is he the one?
I don't know if it's now or because they interspersed the interviews later.
I'll just talk about it now.
Is he the one who says when you're at the university, I want you to be offended every single day?
Yes.
Yeah, I think that is him.
Like, what do you think a university is?
Yeah.
I feel like somebody should just flash their dick at you.
Right.
Yeah.
Call you a slur every single day right to your face first thing in the morning.
It's like, what does that have to do with learning engineering?
Like, I fucking, I just want to go learn to be an accountant.
Do I need to have like slurs every day?
Is that the only way I learn?
It's the only way I'll learn.
Accrual accounting.
N-word. Oh, okay, now I get it.
First in, first out, last in first out.
Other slurs. Oh, no, I didn't get it for my first.
If I hadn't been offended, that wouldn't have stuck.
But now, oh, God.
It's so dumb. It's a fake version of college that they've built this myth.
And the thing is, their constituency is mostly dumb idiots who didn't go to college.
And so they all believe it.
Like, yeah, college is a place where.
they should all go hear ideas they don't like all the time.
No, you go and you learn the thing you're trying to learn.
You can go to college and never have a politics discussion if you want to.
It's not a necessary part of college.
But here's the thing, though.
So for a lot of these people, it is, right?
So going to college is about hearing about ideas that you don't like.
If, for example, the ideas that you were raised with were young earth creationism
or that gay people are lesser or that, you know, white people have a point on
a lot of these people are going to college and learning ideas that they're offended by.
But like, the reason we're teaching those ideas isn't because they offend you.
It's because they're correct.
Yeah.
Or they are stupid and their ideas are dumb.
And so they want you to go to college and learn stuff that you hate because that's their dumb ideas.
That's why they, it's like, you should be offended all the time.
You're learning young earth creationism instead of, you know, geology or something.
Well, that's why Discovery Institute is a producer.
on this film.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Where do they sneak that?
Do you think there were meetings
where they were like,
you know what I think would be a good thing
to bring up?
And they're like, God, damn it.
We've had this discussion.
So then, as if to prove definitively
to seven years later that they are, in fact,
the bad guys,
Alan Dershowitz shows up to defend them a bit.
Alan Dershowitz.
Too perfect.
You know how, in Silence of the Lambs,
what's his name won the Oscar for Best Actor?
And he had like nine seconds of screenings.
time. You know, like that's the famous stat. I can't remember it was like 10 minutes or so. There's nothing.
Yeah, right. Dershowitz should win the Oscar for Best fucking, I don't even know what. He should win the Razzie
and the fucking, what's the Darwin Award? Like for best, he comes in with two absolute bangers.
Like within three minutes that are the funniest things when you know the future of how, of things.
He might as well be a comedian time traveler. Like he really might as well just be doing a bit trying to say stuff.
Because the first one, huh,
Yeah, it is.
Yeah.
So the first one, and folks, if you're listening along,
you're going to find this at minute 3022.
Dershowitz literally says,
if you want to feel good, get a massage.
Oh.
It's even grosser.
He says if you want to feel pleasure, I think.
Yeah, I wrote Feel Good, but yeah, I mean, it's just insane.
It's insane that that's what he says.
I want to print that everywhere and just put it everywhere.
Because the quote is like, he's like, you don't go to college.
to feel, to feel good,
to make, you know, for ideas,
if you want to feel pleasure, get a massage.
Just like, Dersh, no.
Dersh, should you leave your underwear on or not?
Come up with a different example, my guy.
Like, I guess that's what you know, but,
my good friend Jeffrey Epstein has a great misuse at his play.
Leave your underwear on those, so nobody thinks you're...
Also, I just have to say this.
I had not seen Alan Dershowitz in such a long time.
I forgot how much he looks like he's made out of talcum powder.
It was really, it's pretty startling.
It's even worse now, yeah.
This is what he's young and spry.
And then we get this animation for the opening of the social justice warriors cartoon.
Right.
I feel like we need a little comedy break.
The superhero names are a bias response team, Antifa.
They're going to fight fascism with fascism is what the tagline is for that character, that superhero.
And equity enhancer, I think, was the other one.
That's a good one.
Yeah, he's the superhero who has the power to see racism where there isn't any.
Like American college campuses.
Guys, you're how funny this shit was in 2015.
They fucking got us.
And it all turned out awesome.
Yeah.
It turned out so good.
Like, I'm so glad that this is where so many people put their time and effort and energy.
Like, they animated a cartoon to really.
Well, make up for it, though.
They now all admit they were wrong.
And they're like, oh.
At least they all see the error of their ways.
Those who didn't die of COVID are really open.
Speaking of which, another blast from the past,
this is where we get Thomas's debate partner that got away, Dave Rubin.
Oh, man.
Hey, if anyone wants to know what Dave Rubin is up to these days,
he's making sad clickbait YouTube videos on his channel still.
Oh, and Candace Owens is threatening to out some interesting stuff about him, by the way.
There's a lot of infighting happening between Dave Rubin and Kansas Owens right now.
Yeah, it's good.
It's juicy.
Is it?
It's juicy.
Because his most recent episode is called the brutal details about Islam's plan that the media ignores.
Okay.
I will give you nine guesses as to who, which mayor of New York he has is the thumbnail for that one.
Yeah, right, right.
Or Democrats' biggest weakness that no one sees.
Oh, interesting.
It's the thing I've made videos on for 10 years.
Yeah, right.
as it turns out.
Do you think, here's the thing, right?
Because look, we get to talk about new shit.
We've lost.
It's sad, right?
Let's not talk about that.
That's a bummer.
It must be exhausting each week for him to go.
So boring.
I guess we'll say that the people getting murdered in Minneapolis are bleeding into the public water supply.
That's probably dangerous.
But here's the thing.
So Dennis Prager insists, you know, Dave Rubin has every credential
of a bona fide liberal.
Quote, Dave Rubin is gay.
Dave Rubin is married to a man.
He takes it in the butt.
And then, yeah, and Dave is a lifelong Democrat.
Those are all he's got.
Three credentials and two of them are basically the same thing as long as you're getting married, right?
If you're gay and you're getting married, it's likely to a man, I guess.
Yeah, I don't think monogamy is what he meant.
I can't imagine being a filmmaker, being him and keeping that cut.
Yeah.
Right?
Wouldn't you be like, oh, shit, I didn't think of three things.
I just thought of gay, gay and gay.
But then you're going to lose more of the runtime and they were concerned about that.
It's like, think of anything else.
But it's, we, we have identity.
I have anyway, called out this shtick from day fucking one with this asshole and all of them.
It's the same fucking thing.
Look, I used to be a liberal.
I'm gay marriage and weed.
That's the two examples they bring up.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
So two things that honestly, a lot of people, like, a lot of conservatives are fine with weed and.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Cool.
Well, also their whole point.
here, though, is that, like, you know, if you think
you're safe because you're on the left, they're coming for
you too, right? Yeah. You know, because he's
got all of the credentials of the
left. Dude, I'm a straight white
male, 50-year-old middle-class
business owner from rural fucking
Georgia. All right? Talking about having
all the bona fides. Oh, it's
so great. That's just how
bad you guys are at selling your
fucking thing. They have, so they do
this thing where they're like, and it's, the patterns
the same every time. It's someone
who's a bona fide leftist.
who says one thing out of turn.
Their examples are Dave Rubin.
And then is this where the girl,
the Jordan Pearson girl, I think.
And that like every example they bring up of someone,
well, regardless, I think they bring it up again.
Every single point they bring up of someone who,
quote unquote, was on the left until they said one thing.
It's someone who clearly was not on the fucking left.
There's not a single example of someone who's on the left.
Right.
They're like, Alan Dershowitz is he's super liberal.
And I'm like, he simps for Donald fucking Trump, right?
Yeah.
This is where he comes back in and he says,
He says that there's no resonance for anti-Semitism on campuses today.
That aged well.
Wait, is this the, oh, is that the Dersh one?
Yeah, this is the other quote I had.
Yeah, the quote is actually, oh, it's so good.
It's, oh, it's so good.
The quote is, I'm not worried about a few people with swastikas who want to replace the Jews.
They're irrelevant.
They're not.
It's so good.
They're not going to elect their own fucking president or anything.
I'm worried about them.
Fast forward to right now.
what is Dershowitz saying about, you know,
anti-Semitism that's happening.
He's just talking about how he got denied a parogi.
What was it?
Yeah, someone wants to sell him a sandwich.
No, no, it's parogi.
It's better than a sandwich.
It's a parogi.
I forgot about that.
That's all he talks about is Martha's going on.
I'll never forget about that anyway.
Someone won't sell him a parogi, and it's all he talks about it.
I'm making merch based off of it.
You know when that person at that parogi shop did that?
They were like, why would you do that, Greg?
It's not going to really bother him.
They don't care.
And then the next day they fucking brought it.
the New Yorker and they were like, sorry, did it not matter?
Allison.
All right, so this is the point where I think that the audience is going to want to check
and make sure we're not lying to them, right?
Because this is the point in the fucking documentary
where this movie unironically sides with Mr. Burns
in a Simpsons episode.
Yeah.
Oh, good times.
Jesus.
And then, yeah, we see Stephen Mayer of the Discovery Institute
for one fucking second, and he goes,
Well, I think cut.
Yeah, right.
You know, there's only one worldview allowable in the university.
And then they cut away quick before he says what world view he would like to.
Dinosaurus for dragons.
Fuck they cut it.
I saw the red light go off.
Oh, they got me.
This is where we meet Isabella Chow, who is a student at UC Berkeley until the woke's turn against her.
That's the truth and only the truth.
Yeah, it's flat out lies.
Okay.
So I'll tell you the real story because the real story is when Donald
Trump's administration undid Title IX for gay people, right?
That university passed the thing at their university saying, hey, we support Title IX and we
will continue to do it at the university.
And they held a vote on it.
And Chow stood up and went, I cannot do that because I believe that marriage is between a
man and a woman.
And that university very rightly went, well, you fucking suck.
Yeah.
And she's a student senator, too.
So the students that she represented.
We're like, what?
We don't like that.
We elected you not to do that.
We elected you because you were the nerd
who wanted to do that job in college.
Yes, right.
You were the loseriest of possible losers.
I scribbled your name in between waffles.
No, but of course, that's not what they tell us in the fucking documentary, right?
In the documentary, all she says is, you know,
there was a bill that I couldn't agree with because of my Christian beliefs.
Yes, not important what it was, but.
No, we don't know.
She says that she abstained from voting.
She didn't.
She voted no.
Oh, really?
So she wasn't even...
Another lie.
Everything I have seen is that she legitimately voted no.
And people were saying, like, you could have just abstained.
And now she's saying, I abstained from voting.
Wow.
And then her whole complaint, her whole complaint in this free speech documentary about free speech and how no one can free speech is...
Yes.
Then people said things to me.
Freely spoke.
Yes.
And they shouldn't be allowed to do that.
And they don't want to be my friends.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, she's like all the organizations.
that I was in, they didn't want me to be in them anymore.
And I'm like, oh, they didn't want to associate with you.
It's almost like they have the freedom to not associate.
Yeah.
Right.
She goes, you know, I thought there would be mutual respect and understanding about my lack of respect and understanding for LGBTQ people.
Yeah.
Right.
And then she says, anti-fucking quote, you know, I wasn't elected to not represent a religious.
It was an awesome, like, doubled it.
Like, Scalia would be proud of your fucking word.
word, diarrhea
to try to get to the conclusion you want to get to?
You torture a fucking sentence like that.
You usually have to tell it your master plan.
Represented to not secularly.
Well, and then we meet Cornell student
Olivia Corne who was assaulted
for her conservative beliefs, guys.
Yeah, what was this?
Nobody was ever caught or apprehended
or caught on video or corroborated her story.
But she didn't just fall down that hill.
She was pushed down that hill for being a conservative.
This is one that I don't know.
I haven't heard of.
I didn't look at.
Oh, you don't know this lady?
And so we get some girl just saying, yeah, I was assaulted.
We think it was someone who followed me because they knew that I was coming out that class.
And then they pushed me down that hill.
They said I was never going to learn karate.
This stupid girl whose eyes are farther apart than the two coasts of the United States fell down a hill.
at college.
And when she got to the bottom of the hill,
she was like,
that was an Antifa.
And Antifa did that.
And that fucking,
because look,
a lot of the lies of the right are clever,
right?
You're like,
oh, I get it.
That's neat.
You did a thing
where you pretended
you just taught your pug
the thing and they're coming out of you.
Oh, that's tricky.
Tricky.
She literally fell down a hill
and was like, black.
Yeah.
Black.
So good.
Then she became a never-Trumper,
by the way.
and Anne Coulter dragged her on Twitter.
Yes.
So then she started getting yelled at by the conservatives calling her terrible things.
The lepers ate her face?
Yep.
Now she's a lawyer.
So, okay, then Dave Rubin shows back up and there's this line.
I love it when they tell on themselves like this and don't realize it where he goes,
you know, it used to just be that people would say you're a racist.
But now they say you're a Nazi.
You're a white supremacist.
And I'm like, well, stop doing that, Dave.
Stop becoming those things.
Stop evolving like the.
that we all have.
Now you say you
crashed into my car and you took the
shit on my lawn and that is all his other stuff.
And then maybe Dennis
Prager apologizes for
congratulating you on the birth of your child
if you realize that his brand is actually
way more important than your very existence
and you're pretty sad about that.
So yeah, and then we see
Charlie Kirk. And I think
like honestly, as a favor for
me, they should go back to all the clips of Charlie Kirk and take the things out where he's
drinking a liquid, right? Because you can't help but imagine it spurting out of his neck when he
he does it. The first question they ask him, they go right now. And I wrote, how bulletproof
would you say your throat is? How bulletproof would you say your produce? Oh my God. But he's there
with Candace Owens at some campus telling all of these minorities about how white privilege is
bullshit. And I, oh wait, until I watch footage of Candace O'Nell's.
I forget how switched to a different subway car in psychosis she is.
She's a demon.
Yeah.
In my head, she's just like a clever person who works for the right.
But every video footage of her, she's like, I'm going to eat all the tape off this tape measure.
Yeah.
You're like, oh, okay.
So, okay, so we're going to come back to them in a minute.
They're best friends, by the way, in case anyone's wondering, their best friends.
Yes, yes, very best friends.
You guys think they were fucking.
I think they might have been fucking.
All right.
I hope no.
But then we talk about.
For both our six.
So this college Republican group wanted to have a freedom rally at its college, and it was going to cost a lot to pay for all the security because they were bringing in a bunch of people who yell slur words for a living.
And they told them, you have to pay.
It's going to cost like tens of thousands of dollars for the security.
If you want to do this, you have to pay for it, right?
Which they considered to be quite oppressive.
Yep.
And they won on that.
And they get to do that now.
They eventually won on that.
So why the fuck would you put it in your documentary?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Fun fact, that actually does not apply to music festivals.
So I'm helping produce a music festival at the university I work for.
And we had to pay for security.
And I was like, damn, that's expensive.
And I was watching this movie at the same time.
And I was like, hmm.
What if I hire one racist?
Yeah, Kanye.
But I get one or like just a niche enough racist.
Like one of the German metal bands that's like Nazis do that.
Sure, yeah.
Nobody knows what they're saying anyway.
They finish up and everyone's like,
Good for you guys.
Yeah.
That seemed fun.
Dudes love eagles.
But a lot of like perfectly reasonable Republican speakers are trying to speak in colleges and getting shouted down and canceled.
And their example is Anne Coulter.
Oh, God.
It's a reasonable person.
And then they've got like this bit where they're asking the leftist like, okay, but what if a leftist speaker, you know, was going to speak at your college?
Yeah, what if Rachel Maddow was going to be?
And I'm like, yeah, there's no difference between.
Rachel Maddow and a racist and an actual person who like diminishes, like denies the humanity of a group of human beings.
You're right. That is an equivalent thing.
They try to do a gotcha. And the guy, the gotcha is just the guy says, I'm trying to imagine that right now.
And like, that's it. It's like, yeah, no, that is the right response. That wouldn't happen.
Right. Because the people on our side aren't fucking horrendous racists.
Yeah. Oh, you think punching someone just because they are wobbing a bank is bad?
Well, what if you were punching someone who was doing a good thing?
Yeah, right.
You absolutely.
This punching is not great.
So, yes, and then we hear from one of the liberals that's being shut down.
Here we go.
Right?
This lady who was the teaching assistant for Communication Studies 101, so she brought in a clip of Jordan Peterson railing against trans people and their pronouns.
Yeah.
Saying trans people don't exist.
Okay.
The first thing I need you all to understand is that Communications 101 as a class is like a new thing.
Paper is pieces of paper stacked one on top of the other.
Next week's quiz will consist of what's a newspaper.
So the fact that this girl brought in a video of Jordan Peterson being like,
trans people are the devil to try to prove like they, them, pronouns are confusing is fucking amazing.
Yeah.
Yeah, but according to her, I was neutral and that was the problem.
Yeah.
Gotcha.
Yes.
Right.
Gotcha, Lindsay.
Right.
Yeah.
So yeah, Lindsay was her name.
Yeah, so she explains that she was just trying to teach him about pronouns.
And well, you know, Jordan Peterson was talking about pronouns.
It is communication.
After all, he was communicating.
Communicating.
When he said it.
He's a real person.
But of course, they always have to say this stupid shit, right?
Because she at one point it has to say, like, I don't think anything should be off limits.
Well, yes, you fucking do.
Right.
Like, that's an insane fucking thing to say.
Oh, that's a Miloianopoulos.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah, right, right.
Now, okay, no, those are good points,
but do you have, I don't know, some recorded audio
where someone explains why she's wrong
and then she starts crying?
Oh, my God.
Emphasize this movie's point.
Okay, so for those of you who don't know
and who don't watch along, first of all,
just watch this part of the movie
because it's fucking amazing.
She recorded the conversation she had with her supervisor,
and you could hear the Heath telling Eli
he can't just make up his own Bitcoin conversation
where she's like,
it's up for debate though
and her boss is like it's not
it's not because her whole argument
is you know like well this
we should be neutral I was presenting it neutrally
and it's okay to present something neutrally
and he's like nope not when it's bigotry it's not
that's his point yeah right he's like
can you imagine how if someone brought
a speech of Hitler's and said
oh I'm just presenting this is information
that would be bad and she's like actually
I don't know why that would be bad
and I'm going to cry
Yeah, and I just wanted to yell at her,
oh, do you need a safe space?
You need a space you don't do?
You're crying, crying kid.
Why don't we get to D?
Yeah, you fucking Snellflake.
A lot of people have recorded themselves crying over things that they're passionate about.
And I think we can all agree that.
Yeah, leave Britney alone.
The chillest and sanest political pundits to that.
I just did that the other day.
I don't mind crying.
It's Thomas's brand of podcasts.
Yeah, when you're the people who are like, you need safe space,
and boo-hoo and whatever.
And then you're going to be like,
and they made this girl cry
when they told her
don't bring Hitler speeches.
So you want a safe space
for your Hitler speeches.
That's what you want.
And then the fucking idiot defense
that she cries her way through
is she's like,
well, you know,
they're going to be exposed
to these ideas when they leave college,
so I should be allowed to talk to them.
That's an exact fucking quote.
I'm like, well,
they're going to be exposed
to fucking butt stuff
and people who think Jews
are poisoning the wells, lady.
People taking a shit on the street.
Like, yeah, that'll happen.
Her final point she makes in this conversation is
it's not transphobic because Jordan Peterson
is a real person.
A real person.
A transphobic one, but yes.
So speaking of which, we dig into Jordan Peterson quick
before he kills himself with his caveman diet.
Oh, sex montage.
It's literally like a o' montage of clips of Jordan Peterson.
Yes.
I don't think he's actually done stuff
for the last few months because he's been ill as well.
Yes, diet.
of his diet.
I keep checking.
I keep checking because I'm like,
I'm waiting for him to come back.
No, he's not.
I see Michaela Peterson all over the place, though.
That Ivermectin's going to kick in any minute.
Yeah, he'll get it.
So, okay, so this is where he's checking out Adam Carolla's garage.
And we have this amazing fucking moment.
He walks up to this car and the hood's up.
He looks at the engine and he says to Adam Crowell.
He says, tell me about this one.
And Adam Carolla clearly doesn't know a goddamn fucking thing.
about that car that he owns?
No, he does. He absolutely.
Okay, okay. His quote is
it's a really nicely built car.
That's what he fucking says.
I think he doesn't want to talk to Jordan Pearson.
He's been talking to Jordan Pearson
before this clip and after
this clip. He is trying to, and he's like
so tell me about this one. He's like,
car, when is it over?
Because to be there,
Jordan's follow up is
whilst haven't two to your car been dribble.
No, Adam Carolla is an amateur race car driver.
He does actually know about and he collects it.
But I really do think Eli's right and he just was like,
Dear God, I don't want to talk to this guy.
Jordan Peterson is in like screaming emergency level psychosis at all times.
There is not a chance in the world that this was anything but the worst day of Adam Carolla's mother.
Right?
He crawled, he's army crawled.
from his car to the front steps of Corolla's house,
rang the bell, lay on his back and screamed,
postmodern handsome,
until someone came and got him.
Yeah, and wheeled him out, yeah.
Eli, we should stage no exit,
but it's like Adam Corolla, Jordan Peterson, right?
Like, we should just pick all these people to.
And they just are all together.
They're all trying to fuck it themselves,
except Adam Carolla.
So then they sit down for their interview proper,
and this is where he says,
I shit you not.
Adam Carolla says to Jordan Peterson,
so are they going to pass a law in Canada outlawing pronouns?
And Jordan Peterson says they already have.
They already did.
Yeah.
I wonder what that would be like, what that would be like.
What that would be like.
What that would.
Hey, Thomas.
How's Thomas?
Pretty good, Noah.
How's Noah?
Fine. Noah guesses.
Sorry, Noah's just having a lot of trouble with this.
New law against pronouns.
Yeah, it,
the new law against pronouns is pretty hard to follow.
The new law sure is.
Yep, yep.
Well, got to go.
See Noah later.
Have a good one.
Thomas too.
So we get their interview.
We get a clip of that.
Dave Rubin comes up to tell us once again
that they're coming for the lefties to.
Yeah, if there's any individualism,
about you. That's what they want to destroy.
Right, right. And I'm like,
hey, you know what, man, it's because we're not in a
fucking cult, right? It's not, because we
haven't decided that everybody who's on my political side
gets a fucking pass for doing horrible
shit for the rest of their goddamn lives. That's the way
it's supposed to be. That's not a fucking
flaw, right?
That you could just say, well, I'm on your
side and therefore I never get attacked
for anything that I do or say, right?
That's a problem with your fucking side.
Also, the right eats its
own all the time. You literally,
murder each other. Don't get me wrong.
Leftists are annoying online,
but I'm never like, oh man,
I hope one of my listeners who thinks I want to kill all the snakes
doesn't shoot me in the back of the head.
Yes.
So, okay, so then we're going to talk about fucking Brett Weinstein
and the Evergreen State College.
Okay, can I just say,
knowing what I know about Brett Weinstein,
when Brett Weinstein appeared and was introduced
as a liberal professor,
I felt like they were like,
Here's famous painter Adolf Hitler.
Tell us about his...
Like, the amount of crazy that I...
Lydia, I can only imagine how you and Thomas feel, right?
The amount of crazy I am aware of about these two people,
Brett Weinstein and his wife, Heather Hire,
and for them to be like, one time he got yelled at a car.
It's insane.
Yeah.
It's like they're interviewing the fucking Joker
about his hobbies.
I'm like, ask about the gas!
Ask about the gas!
So, okay, so yeah, so come from...
when do you guys give me like the 90-second rundown of the coup that he lived through when he was a college professor?
Yeah. So there's a traditional thing at Evergreen State College called the day of absence where black folks would not show up to campus that day.
It was trying to, it connected to a play to sort of demonstrate like the value that black people bring to your spaces and what happens when they're gone.
And I think at a certain point, some people at Evergreen.
It was after something really horrible.
I can't remember what.
Is it after George Floyd or something like that?
No, that was before then.
It could have been after the like Charlottesville maybe.
I don't know.
It was after something really bad where people were like,
Jesus fucking Christ, can we do something?
And I think this is like also like a really interesting point that like trying to
demonstrate how important black people are on campus is to just get rid of all the black people.
And they're like, what if we like kind of turn this around?
And instead of black people being made to leave, what if we have it?
So the campus is a place for black people.
And if you aren't black, then, you know, as part of the protests and solidarity, you're not there.
And even that is overselling it because it was like, hey, for this like two hours.
And also there's these like seminars you can just go to.
Like it was just nothing.
It's like it's an idea for a little bit of solidarity.
And of course, this entire movement of people that are covered in this thing, except for Adam Carolla, the one, he's the most normal person on this documentary.
everybody else is a fucking psychotic idiot
who the minute someone's like, hey, what if,
you know, what if you do something that very, very slightly,
slightly might inconvenience you?
Like, you bigot just because I'm right?
Right.
That's their whole thing.
That's every single one of them.
He wouldn't take a day off of fucking world.
Solidarity with anti-racism.
That was his whole fucking thing.
And he's like, it was a coup.
Fuck you.
To be fair, again, he could also just have not
done that and shown up to work, would have been a dick move?
What he did was C.C.
Old the college to say, hey, everybody, I think this is racism against whites.
I stand opposed.
Yes, right.
I think centering people of color is offensive.
I shall be Rosa Parksing your day of absence.
Right.
Right.
He goes, well, you know, what shocked me so much, though, is that all of these black students
that seem so interested in racism were not interested in hearing a white.
person's contrary view on it.
My tapes are pretty hot.
Yeah, Indians email, that was the thing
that annoyed me the most. And back then, I was
fucking on to this fucking asshole when everybody
was saying, oh, he's just a reasonable guy trying
to do it. The email was like, if anyone
wants to hear a lecture, because he taught biology
there or whatever, he's like, if anyone wants to hear a lecture
on how phenotype presents itself
and whatever, like he was going to white-splain
racism in his life. And I was like,
dude, what a jack-off motion
thing. It just, every single one of these people
is the same. They're a narcissist who doesn't,
understand that they're a narcissist, and anytime they can't be literally the focus and the
person that everyone is looking to.
Yep.
In this heroic white savior way, the minute they can't be the spotlight, they cry oppression.
They dedicate the rest of their lives to the most insane forms.
To this and COVID denial.
Yeah.
To the most insane forms of harm.
Yep.
Well, and then they talk about this meeting that they had afterwards, right?
Like, so the protesters against him, people who were against him and wanted him fired from
the college.
they convinced the college president to have this meeting where a bunch of, you know, people of color who are concerned about this, we're going to come and sort of present their case against him.
That's what he says. I don't think that's, I don't think that's what happened, is it?
Regardless. So they have this meeting. And at the meeting, they show that, like, they're, like, telling, like, the white people to give up their seats for, for African American students, which makes fucking sense if the whole point of this is to let black students have their say, right?
but he's presenting it.
Yeah, the food and water was only for people of color.
Bathrooms, not allowed white people.
Get out of here.
It's a separate water felt.
Can I say, as the person who would cause that announcement to have to be made?
As I ate all the food.
There's no fucking question that I would, positive side, try to show up and support my fellow
cohort of culture, and negative side immediately make for the food.
And be like, home, how, home, home.
It's for everybody, Eli.
How many fruit plates I can have?
Is there a specific limit on how many toothpicks I can use?
I need a number.
He's talking about while he's at this meeting, like his wife is,
his partner, whoever's getting these texts, you know.
Heather Heying.
Yeah, he's like, I'm not sure that I'm even going to be allowed to leave.
But he was, right?
He was just being a paranoid checkass.
Nothing happened.
He's like, I've been kidnapped.
Oh, no wait, no wait.
They were bringing in a table.
And then I'm even more confused about the next story, I think it is,
where he's like, and then I was riding my bike.
And I saw some black kids with cell phones.
Standing along the road.
So obviously that scared me.
They were hunting me for sports.
And so I get a police station.
That's exactly what it is.
And then the police station on campus said,
I think they're looking for you.
I can't protect you.
Well, no, no.
So he says, did I just see?
what I thought I saw.
And I'm like,
what do you think you saw?
I actually don't,
I'm not playing dumb.
I don't know what he's saying.
No.
Because he just says,
I saw a black kid look at his cell phone.
Yes.
And then I go into the police station.
I'm like, did I just see what I think I saw?
And they're like, yeah, Mr.
They're after you.
They're hunting.
Okay, but think about the real world.
I'm going to hide you in our underground railroad.
Yeah.
Because when there's a crazy person saying something,
sometimes they reveal the truthing that happened, right?
Which is that Brett, like,
throws his bike through the door of the campus police
stations.
He's like, shoulders
behind the tail.
They're going to kill me.
They're going to help me down.
They're going to triangulate their spell phones and scramble my brains.
And the cop was like, hey man, I can't help you with that.
And he was like, oh my God, you're in it as well.
They said they wouldn't help me.
threw himself at the front window, hoping it would smash, just landed against it like a bird.
And then army crawled out the door.
He dragged his bike behind him.
And then he says, and then to close this whole paranoid fantasy off, he goes,
this will happen everywhere soon.
And I'm like, okay, seven-year-old documentary.
What are you talking about?
It's so good.
Cell phones all over the place.
All right.
Well, apparently we need to batten down the hatches to protect against the woke lefties
coming for our freedom of speech real quick.
But first let me give Act three the hard sell.
Will Donald Trump go on to do all the terrifying shit this documentary warns the
these are going to do? Will Dennis Prager and Adam Carolla unequivocally support him in so doing?
Is that proof positive that this was really just veiled racism the whole time?
Yeppers. Anyway, we'll be back after the break.
America is the greatest country in the world. We don't see black or white, rich or poor.
We just see. Sorry, cut. Cut. What's the manner?
Yeah, Adam, we were wondering if you wanted to shoot this monologue about how everyone in America is equal.
in front of your collection of luxury race cars?
Well, sure. Why not?
If I may?
Please.
So we're just worried that your message about your commitment to egalitarianism
might not be received very well
if you're standing like literally next to a collection
of luxury race cars.
Well, I earned these cars.
Did you?
Yeah, yeah, I was Jimmy Kimmel's boxing coach.
And then I said, hey, I should.
should be on your show too.
Right, right.
Well, um,
I'll tell you what, we'll keep the cars,
but you have to show Jordan Peterson around your garage.
Ah, is he going to be weird?
Oh, yeah, I know.
Big time.
Fine.
And we're back for still more of this shit.
We're going to rejoin the action by asking how these anti-free speech people got so
powerful, despite the other side having all the money and the megaphones and the power.
Mm-hmm.
Turns out it's a conspiracy by people who are legitimately just trying to make the world better.
Right.
But look, a world where we tell people to be nice is not a good one for ideas, says an actual person in this movie.
If I ever found myself saying, here's why being nice is bad.
I would have a happening level of intensity and immediacy end my life.
then okay now we're going to talk about how the liberals are coming for comedy these days
but what epic such comment what comedian items should we use any funny people to do that
I'm sorry but maybe you've heard of Adam Andrew Schultz sorry I forgot his fucking name
I legit forgot his fucking fellow podcaster Andrew Schultz he goes it's impossible to do a comedy show
these days. I'm like, I feel like some people manage it.
Also, that very guy does comedy.
The thing is, this was before
he figured out to grow a mustache, no.
That's probably why he recognized him.
Now that he has the mustache now, it's like, that's the
mustache guy. And then he has
a comedy. And then he says the same
comedy that people have been saying for 100
fucking years. Yeah, the key is, though,
is that it's liberals' fault that he isn't
funny.
This is where we get, we also get a clip from that
Tim Allen show about how
Conservatives can't have shows anymore.
God, it's fucking the best.
And they're like, you know, it was canceled after just six seasons.
And I'm like, well, that's a pretty long run for a TV show these days.
Even though it was their second most popular sitcom.
Well, yeah, their second highest rated prime time comedy.
And I'm like, wow, that's a lot of modifiers.
Was it ever the top 50 rated shows at any point?
And with jokes like cultural appropriation, more like,
More like cultural, I love this nation.
How could they have thrived in this land?
I feel like 40% of the people watching that show
was my father-in-law trying to, like, trigger me and my wife.
Do you find that you, are you enjoying this?
No, I'm not.
I just hope it just piss you off.
I was hoping it would piss you off.
You piss me off.
So then we have like a roundtable, right?
Adam and Tim Allen
and some other conservative comedians
no one's ever heard of,
sit around and talk about how funny they aren't.
They're finally going to solve this comedy thing.
Yeah, I'm glad we're getting
their best, the best of the best
of the best of honors on this.
There had to be a moment for every other comedian
at that table when they sat down
and realized they were at a table with Tim Allen
where they thought, oh,
this isn't a great comedian table.
I'm the bad guy, aren't I?
I'm the bad guy.
table. I'm kind of surprised Rob Schneider
wasn't there. Right?
They did not get off? Even they were like, yeah.
I think the black lady got his seat.
Like, she showed up last minute. She was like,
fine, I'll pretend that you guys.
They were so psyched
when she said yes. Right?
She's the way she steps up. She's like,
you know, I got this joke I make where I make fun
of anorexia. And sometimes people
come and they say to me, hey, you know,
you probably shouldn't joke about anorexia.
There are other ways you can make that joke. And I'm like,
fuck you.
Yeah.
Okay, she's making a great point.
No notes from Normies.
Okay.
In the words of Cecil something Italian, no notes from Normies.
Yeah, like the same point, they all make the same point, which is, I was making a joke.
Somebody said after a show, hey, I didn't really like that.
And so therefore, I'm in a gulog.
Yes.
And I was like, okay, they said they didn't like it.
You made the joke.
You're the one who's still on stage.
You're the one who's still a comedian.
Right.
You're still making money.
You're still doing it.
everything you were doing, except someone said, I didn't think that was funny.
That's all that fucking happened.
That's all that happened.
And you're going to keep saying the joke.
We know you're going to keep saying the joke.
We're going to keep doing it.
Exactly.
And that's the other fucking thing is that like, well, are you just some kind of fucking
sissy can't take the goddamn challenge of doing a joke that doesn't make fun of
somebody?
Like I thought you're supposed to be a fucking professional comedian, right?
Like should you welcome that challenge?
There's this great moment where the table goes, should we be held accountable for all the
things we say, and you see them go, no?
Oh, yeah.
Obviously, we would have to be.
Our answer's no?
No, our answer's not no.
Well, they have a clip of,
No.
Yeah, I've had a slip of Seinfeld in there where he's
talking about how people are just too damn sensitive these days.
He's got some joke about how people scroll through their phones, like gay French
kings.
Okay, okay.
And it's the perfect.
This is so great.
It's a perfect note.
Well, this one's so great because if you pay attention to the details,
what's actually happened here is Jerry Seinfeld has imagined that someone would criticize him for this joke.
Right.
If you look at the wording, on the second viewing, I was like, wait, he just says,
oh, you know how you can feel an audience?
And they were saying like, oh, you can't say gay.
It's like, wait, so no one actually said that.
You just were feeling like they were kind of saying that.
Yeah, it's a feeling.
Exactly.
And then he comes up.
The thing he says isn't that someone said it to him is that he like invents an argument.
to have with himself about it.
Yeah.
That's how sensitive,
these thin-skinned fucking white idiots are
that they're like,
I imagine,
they didn't laugh hard enough
for my gay French king joke.
Yeah.
So I imagine they're probably saying this.
Brent,
Weinstein did the same thing
before we took the break too,
where he said,
well, that was the tenor of the meeting.
Oh, so you're saying
that's how you felt about the meeting.
That's not actually what was happening at the meeting.
Not something that somebody sat.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, he,
he goes, he goes,
you know, it's gotten to the point
where we can't even,
And he just, and he stops the sentence there because the other half of it is make fun of gay people, right?
And he realizes that.
Right.
So, and then we see, you know, Kevin Hart, they cry about how Kevin Hart.
That guy never worked again.
They couldn't get Kevin Hart for this.
They just got a clip of him, I think, right?
Yep, yeah.
Never worked again.
Also, Kurt Schilling, chill, awesome dude.
Yep.
Roseanne Barr, you know.
Roseanne Barr.
May and Kelly.
Top notch, folks.
Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty fame.
Yes.
Yes. Well, and then they say like, and then Bill Mars politically incorrect was canceled.
That happened.
Yeah.
That was that canceled.
Why was that canceled?
No, I had that my notes.
Hey, hey, why was that canceled?
Because he would, conservatives got mad at him for not being hysterical enough about 9-11.
Because he said, hey, you can say what you want about the hijackers.
They weren't cowards.
That's what he said.
Yes.
And then who canceled him?
The woke left?
Yeah.
No, it was the fucking conservative.
It was the Bush administration.
Yes.
people. Like that, like, how could you possibly use that as an example of your fucking thing?
It's so dumb. Yeah. So, but they, I guess they just felt like they needed another name to add to the
fucking list. Yeah. But then Brett Weinstein comes in and he gets the, he makes the other argument,
man, this is another one that aged really well. You know, they, this released, what, 2019, 2018,
where they're talking about how like, man, you know, Facebook sure is restricting what Republicans
can say on their platforms too much.
Yeah, that was the problem.
The conservatives were too censored leading into the fucking election.
We see a cartoon of how if you can't tweet your First Amendment rights are being violated.
And then we get this amazing moment from them talking to Congress, right?
Yeah, I actually watched that hearing.
Yeah.
They're confronting the head of YouTube and they're saying, you know, the Prager You videos are blocked.
Nobody can watch them.
And the head of YouTube is like, no, they're restricted because they talk about murder and coveting thy neighbor's wife.
And then they go...
So they're blocked.
Fuck.
And he's like, no, it's only if you have it in restricted mode, which a few people do.
Right.
If you opt in to having these restrictions, then this is restricted.
Yes.
How dare you let people opt out of seeing my videos?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, and then Ted Cruz chimes in and you know that what he's saying will fully represent
the truth.
But what's funny is that like, Ted Cruz kind of gets his ass handed to him in this exchange.
right, but they don't know that or they,
or they just assume that their audience is too dumb to realize it.
They just wanted to show that Ted was on their side.
I don't know.
Well, that was the production company, right?
They had to get some Ted Cruz moments in there
because they were also working on his campaign videos.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, yeah, right.
Cross-promotion, yeah.
So, okay.
So, but then we see Dennis Prager and he's pretty bummed guys
because his controversial stand on virtually everything
might threaten his ability to conduct an,
orchestra. Oh, man. This was entirely... So crazy. So this is, we haven't really talked about this,
but this entire thing is situations that he set up, that they set up to happen during the
promotion of this document. Yeah. So they manufactured a bunch of cancel-cultory things,
including this. There's an article, I didn't want to pay for the LA Times because it's now
owned by a fucking, isn't owned by a fucking asshole, it's the worst. It used to be good. Now it's not.
Sounds like it's a newspaper.
Yeah.
There's an LA Times article from the time that's like, Dennis Prager organized this entire thing.
Like he orchestrated.
I probably used that because it was a news fund.
Dennis Prager orchestrates entire controversy around him conducting the orchestra.
Yes.
It's entirely orchestrated.
Yes.
Also, keep in mind, Dennis Prager is not an orchestral conductor, right?
It's not like throwing out the first pitch of the game.
You actually need someone who knows what the fuck they're doing.
And you can tell in the first second of him actually conducting.
conducting because he still got to conduct, right?
It's just that some people sat out.
But you can tell that he does not totally know what he's doing.
It's the most upset a movie has ever made my wife.
I bet.
Because I watched it and I was like,
that doesn't look like conducting me.
I don't fucking know shit.
So I was like, that doesn't look like conducting to me.
That looks like what I would do if I had faked my way.
And I was like, so is he conducting the orchestra?
And he's not.
He's basically just doing up hands, down, hands back and forth.
Yeah.
So he got a make-a-old.
wish day to be the conductor, which is the high school used to do that for us at the grade school.
They'd pick like, they'd come over and play at the grade school and then one kid got to conduct.
And I never got to do it.
My little sister did.
I was mad.
But she was so weird that she didn't.
She like got up there and refused to do it.
I was like, oh, that's cool.
Great.
And so, but like it's a trick.
You know, they can just play.
Make a wish.
Yeah.
Let me up there.
So his make a wish thing was to do that.
And then my favorite part of this whole thing is when they're like, and it's.
sold out the entire thing.
And we get a time lapse of the, you know, space.
And curiously, it ends when it's like half full.
It must have cut it for time.
You know, I must have just cut that for time, you know, before it filled.
This whole thing that he's upset about is that, like, seven members of the orchestra said,
we don't want you to conduct us.
And so we're not participating.
And so it hurt Dennis's feelings, but he can't just admit that.
He has to say that they're attacking me because free,
speech, but all they're doing is just exercising theirs, which is the entire, the entire thing
here. Yeah. And it hurt his feelings. And that's okay. Just admit it. It hurt your feelings.
Right. It's okay. Well, also, it was an engineered for promo. Yeah, I know. Well, he also had the guy on his
podcast and he plays like a tiny clip of it, but you can hear the episode where he's like, why did you try to
murder me? And the guy's like, I'm not trying to murder you, man. You don't know anything about music.
And also, you're a wild homophob. And he's like, you are. And I don't have to do this.
Well, and it's also, so he plays this clip because he's wanting to make the point that like, unlike the woke left, the person who's against me, I bring him on my podcast and have a discussion with him.
But every clip he's played, he's just bullying the guy.
He's just talking over him, cutting him off and bullying him.
So it's like, well, you're not, though.
You're not having a conversation.
So then we're going to go back and we're going to check on Candace Owens and Charlie Kirk back at UCLA where this is where they actually dig into how white privilege doesn't.
exist or isn't real or like black people wouldn't notice racism if nobody told them about it.
Yeah.
And Charlie Kirk just like standing there awkwardly because they have to use their token black person
between like Candice Owens.
Well, it's also such an amazing callback to what a loser everyone thought Charlie Kirk was
until his throat exploded, right?
It's like he doesn't get a single word in in this movie.
They're like, no, Charlie, you fucking lemonhead motherfucker, you stand there.
And we're going to film the eight and a half seconds of Candace at her most coherent that we can get.
Telling everybody to rub some dirt in their race.
Before she tells everybody she's a cat.
Yeah.
So, okay.
And then.
It does seem like something she would do.
Oh.
And then we get that bit where fucking Adam Carolla talks about when he was a kid, he didn't need no damn bicycle helmet.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
He just does the thing that I use as an argument, right?
Which is like, hey, just because a bad thing didn't happen to you doesn't mean.
mean that and he's like, because a bad thing didn't happen.
Helmets are for pussies.
So here's, I grew up in the pre-helmet era.
My brother was hit by a car when he was a kid and he was on his fucking bike.
And he's like, no, he can't hear out of his left ear and he can't taste out of the left side of his mouth.
And he almost fucking died.
He was in the hospital for months and months.
So it wasn't good that he got in by car.
No, it actually turns out it would have been way better if he had a fucking helmet on it.
But didn't he get stressed?
stronger, though?
Should have lifted himself over the car with his bootstrapped.
Well, that's the problem is that he didn't,
the bootstraves were caught.
Was he on some kind of social safety net at the time?
That's why he was so using it with a car.
Because that makes you magnetized towards moving.
Right, no, you're right.
You're right.
But as Adam explains to us that he's never heard of fucking
survivor's bias.
Yeah.
We then go on.
Sorry, this is where they have to make the whole argument that the worst thing
that you could possibly do is tell kids that they're victims.
Oh, God.
Right?
And I'm like, but what if?
What if they're victims, though?
Is this where he says,
you don't want to tell someone that they can't do stuff?
You want to tell a kid in a wheelchair that he can do anything
and he's going to work harder and he's going to, you know,
like he says all this stuff that's like definitely stuff
that someone in a wheelchair can't do.
They're going to work harder.
They're going to win the race.
They're going to run faster than ever.
And you're like,
that,
what?
Okay.
Yeah, he's like, well, yeah,
if you're supposed to tell a kid in their wheelchair,
you know, hey, if you pull yourself up by your bootstraps,
Oh, fuck.
You could marry and let your legs with them.
Stand on your firm two feet.
Oh, my.
Damn it.
Don't wear a helmet.
So rise up.
No.
Fuck.
So, okay.
And then we get to what I think is the money shot of the whole movie, at least for me.
This is where Tennis Prager goes to Clark Atlanta University, which is a historically
black college.
And he just finds five black kids that are willing to have a conversation with him.
To absolutely own him.
And they own him.
This might as well be in point.
Horn Hub. This is a, this is a...
Oh, so, like, yeah, I was surprised that I didn't need to use my VPN to watch it in Georgia.
Oh, it's incredible.
Because I'm right in my notes.
I'm like, I hate this fucking thing that these people do where they go to a college campus and debate students, right?
If you want to debate somebody at a college campus, hey, they have experts there, right?
You could debate somebody who didn't learn these concepts last fucking semester.
But no, you chose not to debate them.
You went after children.
But as I'm writing that, he starts losing the debate and I just start back space, back, space,
Exactly.
Let him cut.
Now you'll put me in an arm bar and I'll poop myself.
It's pretty much exactly like if a college basketball team went to another college and they're like,
we're going to play you.
And they play.
No, not your actual basketball team.
We'll find people who don't play and we'll beat the shit out of them and then we'll declare
ourselves the best college basketball team.
Right, right.
Right.
Except they lose to those people in this example.
That's the next level of it.
This is fucking amazing.
He's like,
he's like,
do you think everyone in the country is racist?
And they give this incredibly eloquent answer
about like the history of slavery
and it's not about personal things.
It's about white privilege.
And, you know,
when you're descended from slave owners
as opposed to being descended from slaves,
the difference that makes in your lived experience in this country.
And Dennis Prasier-Pogson goes,
I'm true,
I wasn't a slave owner.
I am from the stettel now.
And he's like,
oh, okay.
Well, sorry.
And then they move on.
And like, that's all he has.
But you're,
It is, people maybe should watch this part because it's like, not all of the kids are great.
Because again, they're college students, but one of them is fucking amazing.
One of them just mops the floor with them.
And he's like, no, we don't think literally every white person is racist.
And often, and he's like, well, how are your interactions with white people?
Are they always bad?
And he's like a lot, they're mostly fine.
Like, they're mostly fine.
But at a systemic level, they're not.
And he actually, in the kid makes such a great point because he's like, yeah, and often they're nice to our faces.
But then we don't get that job we're looking for.
We don't get that thing.
Like we're just not, we don't get the opportunity.
They make a movie where they try to make the whole thing for civil rights.
Every perfect point.
And then Des Ferger's like, yeah, but still.
I don't believe that.
The way he like turns this is he's like, okay, so you're telling me, no matter how whites act,
however nice they can be to your face, you're still oppressed because of the internal stuff that you carry.
What are you talking about?
It's so frustrating.
And he goes, how many generations would take?
How many generations would take for this?
For this no longer, he's like, I don't.
No, you don't understand.
He's making an offer.
This is a Jewish thing.
He's trying to, he's trying to serve it.
All right, young man, let's sit down right now.
How many generations?
Hammer out this racism thing.
Opening offer, and this is an opening offer.
Four generations, and then we're kaput.
We're done.
We're done with the slavery thing.
And I will offer you these coupons.
To break a university.
His argument fails with this, right?
Because the whole argument here is that left
on college campuses aren't willing to have an open discussion.
He goes on this college campus and immediately he finds a bunch of kids willing to have an
open discussion.
They mop the fucking floor with him for 15 fucking minutes, right?
And then he slinks off going, because at one point he's like,
he's like, do you think that free speech should be restricted for hate speech?
And all five of these kids are like, no, no, I don't think like you should be able to say
what you're, every single one of them is just like, no, I think we should still be able to talk about
these things. There are venues where
you shouldn't be able to talk about it maybe, but no, we can't
restrict people from talking about it. And then
he's like, okay, well, I have
a poll from Pew that thinks
you think differently than that.
Yeah, yeah. Again, he turns into the
Chris Farley meme, which you can imagine, though,
if you would say, that
you shouldn't. Yes, right.
Right. So, yeah. Here's what
I would say. He said, also
six generations. Yeah.
Fine. Final offer.
So we also hear from during this thing, we hear from Shelby Steele, who is some of their best black friends.
Oh, God.
And he explains to us how black people shouldn't feel victimized because when they feel victimized,
they become their own slave owners.
So disgusting.
Yeah.
This thing that they do, obviously, where, look, it's a giant country and black people are,
to the very point, not socioeconomically doing as well as white people for racism reasons.
So you go and you find in the country of millions of people a couple of black people who are willing to say the worst conservative white talking points for their benefit.
And then that's all you show.
And you show them as though they're the gospel.
It's super fucking racist.
But it's okay because you found a black guy to say the super fucking racist stuff.
Just makes me sick.
I mean, he even says like there very likely is some racism out there.
So what?
Yeah.
What's your point with that?
That's his actual words.
Yeah, what's your point there, Shelby?
That's the point.
So there's racism.
That's my point.
Yeah.
So, and if that is offensive to some people, then they are able to talk about that, right.
I mean, they're allowed to speak about that.
Yeah.
Sorry, are you guys saying that the writer and narrator of the documentary, 2020 documentary,
what killed Michael Brown is not on the right side of history?
Oh, Jesus Christ.
I'm going to guess.
The answer is not the actual thing that killed.
Michael Brown. His answer is Michael Brown.
Okay, so now we're going to
cut back to Lady Liberty to wrap
our points up, right? This is where
Dennis Prager's like, you know, we used to, we used
to not have identity politics. It used to
be e-pluribus unum.
We'd all come together to make one thing.
No, you always had it.
There was never anything remotely like
that whatsoever. This country was
founded on, we don't give a hoot where
you're from. I wrote my notes.
It's a fucking buck wild thing to say,
my dude. We literally had slay.
And there were laws about how many Chinese people were allowed in the country at any given time.
Yeah.
How many specific types of Europeans were allowed depending which country you're from?
Irish need not apply.
How many vaginas you could have and vote?
Oh my God.
You know what sucks, though, is that they've ruined the country so badly that now they've horseshoe
theoryed into being correct because stuff was better in like the pre-1920s?
Right.
Isn't that so bad?
They've gotten so bad that you're like,
boy, we should go back to a time where immigration was how it was in the 1910s.
That would be better than now.
Yeah.
And what we're dealing with now, yeah.
Well, let me give you an example of just how blinded they are to what they're fucking talking about.
At one point, Adam Carolla is trying to talk about the power of individualism or whatever.
Yes.
And he goes, my privilege is that I'm not part of a group.
Yep.
And I'm like, yes.
Literally yes.
Yes.
The world will look at you as an individual rather than black people.
100%.
No, sorry.
What I meant is all black people think alike.
Yeah.
That's what I mean.
It's funny because Adam has three of these like unintentionally, I agree with them.
I think one, Noah might have covered earlier.
Oh, no, one's just in the notes where you're like,
Des Prager's the most ethical man I've ever met.
And you're like, yep, I bet that's true.
There's another one.
Oh, where he said the helmet, I was going to joke.
Like, yeah, I agree with that.
Go ahead and drive around without a helmet.
People right now.
And this one is, I agree with Adam.
Not belonging to a group to me is my privilege.
Not having to, it's like, yeah.
That is. No, you're, same note. That is white privilege. No one will look at you and go,
you only vote with all the white people and think and do what all the white people do.
Yes. People don't do that. They do that with black people. They're assigned to these categories.
And Jewish people and Hispanic people and, yeah. Basically, everybody except Adam Carolla's a literal group that he does belong to.
Okay. All Jewish people do think alike though. That's a different, that's a special thing for us. And it's actually worked out great.
So, okay.
Have a Jewish person think duck in a room one time.
It's amazing.
We all go down.
So, okay.
Then we cut back to the comedian roundtable where one guy makes up a statistic that he doesn't source about how he says, you know, 58% of Americans hold opinions that they don't feel comfortable sharing publicly.
For fuck's sake.
Yeah, maybe those are opinions like, oh, my wife's gotten overweight or something.
I don't, like, you fucking know.
There's stuff that we shouldn't say.
I mean, look, I know that I know that I'm.
not one of those people, but it has not always turned out to be an amazing thing for me.
I do share all the opinions and I feel comfortable sharing all of them, but I have been told
by a lot of crying people that I shouldn't have.
Oh, God, but yes, then we start seeing like the part where they've got UCLA bracing for Ben Shapiro being
there. They spent $600,000.
What a waste of money.
To be fair, this contrast between.
fucking Ben Shapiro and the UCLA, which again, this is not on the liberals.
This is on UCLA being like, we probably need four tanks for Ben Shapiro.
And cutting between UCLA parking a tank in front of the university and Ben Shapiro being like,
I don't think this is soy milk in my latte shipe.
I'm going to go back and tell her to remake it.
And I don't want to argue.
I don't want to argue.
I just don't think.
There's a shot of him from the side where he's hunched over his computer.
And I'm just like, Ben Bubula, come on, man.
A World War II cartoon is like, Ben, baby.
Little Baja, my boy.
What do you miss Rachel's Instagram over there?
Chin up, kiddo.
So now, and they're trying to do this as a comedy thing.
Like, all the security, because Ben Shapiro's so dangerous and he's, you know, a very
unintimidating guy.
But like, hey, I get whipped Donald Trump's ass.
That doesn't mean he isn't fucking dangerous.
Right? I could buy, man, I could whip the shit out of him.
I bet his gas is really bad.
Yeah.
It's obnoxious, one might say.
I feel like I could tie him.
He doesn't change that diaper enough.
Can I surprise him?
Yes, you can, you know.
But Ben is unafraid and he does his speech.
And then we really get to suck in America's dick.
I don't remember who says this, but this is an actual line in the fucking movie.
He says, quote,
I think we underestimate the heroism of our own cause.
I don't think you too.
We are heroes.
That's amazing.
It feels like a Greg Lukianoff quote to me.
Do you know that guy was a little boy?
I didn't know that.
He's just, they know this guy.
I've only ever seen his name in the heinous shit that he defends.
And then they go to some little boy.
Like a little doughy.
This is Greg Lukiav.
That guy's 12.
What?
He's got a giant lollipop.
Pretty much.
KKK should be able to have a club in a middle school.
Nom, num, numb, numb.
Oh, God.
And then they show like,
well, whitewash your fence for a nickel.
As if they were trying to earn the most ironic scene in retrospect award,
we have this clip of Adam Carolla on Jimmy Kimmel's show,
talking about how he's got to go testify to Congress
that the left is going to try to cancel people for saying things they don't like.
Yeah.
On the Jimmy Kimmel show.
Hey, how did that.
Go. Did Jimmy Kimmel
like really support him in that?
And maybe
and did he have him on a bunch more after that?
Have they stayed really cool friends?
Did he finally stop doing that? I haven't paid attention.
Did they finally stop?
He finally stopped letting Adam Carolla come on and say good.
You know, it's one thing that's sad is so when I,
when I listen to Adam Carolla,
my favorite parts were when David Allen Greer would come on.
Because they would do, they had a pretty good like.
Teddy Pendergrass.
Well, they had a good like improv.
routine where Adam would pretty much play the straight man, so he didn't have to do much.
And then David Allen Greer is just a genius.
Like, he's just a fucking comedy genius.
And he would do this amazing crap.
And then it's like, it's so sad because after Trump, David Allen Greer just like has to cut him out.
And he was like, I'm done.
And it's so clear that Adam doesn't understand why or have any concept of like the harm that
he does to his friend.
Somebody genuine, I think, I believe he genuinely loved David Allen Greer.
You know, even though Adam's a racist.
so I'm sure, you know, like, there's limits to that.
But, like, I believe in his heart.
He genuinely loved this guy.
And then he had to cut him off because Adam Crowell is exactly the fucking racist friend
that you can't even try to talk to because the minute you bring up like,
hey, man, maybe it's not great that you're supposed.
You'd get like a four-hour dissertation where he wouldn't listen at all.
And then he just so.
Play this movie for you.
And so what has to happen is these people just have to cut them out of their lives.
You can't have a conversation about it because they're not capable of listening.
It sounds like Joe Coy's not going on anymore either.
Joe Coy was a later one because he was kind of playing into some of the racial stereotypes for his comedy.
So he like, I think was okay with, you know, because sometimes self-deprecating comedy will like use their own racial stereotypes as comedy.
And that's a, you know, conservatives love that.
So like they'll go on these conservative things.
But then I'm glad that he probably realized like, oh, wait, they're not laughing like in the way that's like, ah, I'm kind of, you know, making a, they actually are racist and they're laughing at me for my race, probably.
Well, so, but then we have this bit where Adam Carolla goes to Congress and using his extensive expertise as a woodworker and failed boxing coach.
He explains how kids are too damn fragile these days.
And before you say he's on the wrong side, I want to point out that Jim Jordan is on his side.
So how bad could this possibly be?
Oh, Jesus.
So, yeah.
And then the fucking movie comes up and admits sheepishly that yet none of this stuff that we said was going to happen.
happen. The college Republicans got their money back that they spent on security and everybody
got to talk at the thing and fucking...
Dennis Bringer got to not conduct an orchestra. Yeah. Sorry, am I watching the 10th anniversary
edition where they're like, look, because we made this movie, here's all the good that
happened or literally in your own movie that you made. You're like, and so none of the things
that were problems were actually problems. Right. Right. They even say, they even point out
that Evergreen College where they had the big takeover, the Brett Weinstein thing, that they saw a huge
drop in enrollment and it's like so
so really even that
we didn't nothing
they were punished to in our
way you know yeah
yeah so you win
well they just to make it not seem too much
like they when they end with like
but Prager U videos are still restricted
if you're in restricted mode
they end with Chris Farley
but you can imagine like
but what if I hadn't been allowed
to conduct the orchestra
if they didn't just know the music
already then the day would
really be fucked because I don't know shit.
They even come up with a secret recording lady.
She sued and lost.
And then they sued her for the recording because she put that out.
And she lost that too.
Can I tell you guys?
So they briefly talk about this and you can see footage of it in the documentary.
But there was a girl who was pepper sprayed wearing a MAGA hat while she was being interviewed on camera during some of the protests and stuff.
And they sued.
And guess who her lawyer was?
Alex.
Close.
Larry Clayman.
Oh.
So she voluntarily dropped her suit.
And they're not saying why.
Oh, interesting.
And like George Soros was being like pulled into it too.
What?
He said it's, he filed a motion to dismiss because he was being named in the lawsuit.
And he said this is the fourth case that Larry Clayman has filed against him in the last year.
Oh, wow.
But to voluntarily drop, that means they fuck something up bad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's really interesting.
So.
So, but.
Adam Carolla has learned something here today.
He comes up to, like, wrap up.
We're in his race car thing again.
And he's like, you know, what I learned doing this documentary is that we're actually
in the majority by a lot.
As I was worried about.
I could have told you that.
Yeah.
Why did we sit here for an hour and 40 minutes?
A clip of Obama saying exactly the thing that they're saying the left doesn't think.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I had same note.
I'm like, oh, that's weird.
So the president that was at the time of just before this,
who's, you know, people who look up to
is giving the same fucking,
honestly kind of dumb talking points.
Yeah, right, right.
I also don't agree with it.
Again, the whole thing is not that these principles
aren't true in some abstract sense.
It's that the right wing apparatus
has made people think there's a problem there isn't.
That's the main thing.
Even Obama, it gets to everybody.
Like, the entire mainstream is infected
with this false idea of what happened
at college campuses.
Yes.
They were so successful at it.
But yeah, but then they,
they tackle the question of how do we get out of this problem that doesn't exist and we've already
had to admit doesn't exist?
I guess we just cut.
It's,
yeah,
right,
right.
Well,
say more racist shit,
right?
They're like,
you have to have the courage to be a proud bigot.
Yeah.
And they did and they won.
Yeah.
Then we watched fucking Adam lose a race in his own documentary.
They couldn't get footage of him winning a fucking race in his own documentary.
Driving's hard.
I didn't go to college.
We watched Dennis pretend to conduct his orchestra some more.
One and a two.
There are a whole missing sections in the orchestra.
Oh, fun.
Okay.
Why aren't you singing?
There's just suddenly there's just like a part where there's supposed to be music
and there's like, sorry, we don't have a horns section.
Sorry.
But that's it.
And America is the true safe space.
As it turns out.
Oh, so safe spaces are good?
Oh, wait.
They're bad.
Shit.
Oh, fuck.
Wait a second.
Don't use that for the end of the movie.
So, but that doesn't.
Charlie, stop rubbing you through.
We made it through.
We're not going to talk about the after credit scene.
So that is going to do it for a review of no safe spaces,
but that's not going to do it for the episode just yet.
Because first, I have to thank Thomas and Lydia for suffering alongside us today.
And I have to have one of them remind our listeners if they want to hear more from them where they should go.
Well, you can check both of us out on where there's woke and gavel, gavel.
And then Thomas also does stuff on serious inquiries only and opening arguments.
I'm on there sometimes, but not all the time.
And actually, we have a whole lot of episodes that we've done between serious inquiries
only and where there's work, where we've debunked quite a few of the things that they
tried to claim in this documentary.
So I'll send over that list of sods.
And if folks want to check it out.
Yeah, a history, a tour through bullshit history.
Yeah, from the archives.
Yeah.
Yeah, if you want a thorough debunking, despite the fact that this is an extremely long episode already,
yes, there's like 50 hours of other shit that needs debunked in it.
And we will have a list of all of the where there's Woken,
series inquiry only episodes where you can hear that debunking in the show notes.
Guys, thanks so much for hanging out with us.
Thanks for having us.
Always so fun.
And of course, that does it for the review stuff, but not for the episode just yet
because we still need to fill all the blanks in this episode template.
So Eli, tell us what's on deck?
In 1970s, Alabama, a young preacher struggles with his faith and attacks from his church
after being hired to prove whether or not hell exists.
We'll be watching Hell and Mr. Fudge.
What?
What a name?
Yeah, with a title like that, how could it be good?
All right, so with that to look forward to it,
we're going to bring episode 542 to a merciful close.

Until then, we'll leave you with the American graffiti clothes.
Corolla proceeded to no longer have his show of co-hosts, his friends, and even his wife.
He just podcasts alone by himself with nobody around him.
Just his cause.
Oh.
Jordan Peterson went on to be in terrible pain all the time.
Dennis Prager really needed to watch where he was going.
He fell down and broke his back.
It's super funny.
We skipped over the bee murder that happens in the closed credit scene.
But there's a bee that is murdered during the credits.
And then Dennis Prager says, we can't claim that no animal was hurt during the filming of this documentary.
So mine is that the bees hive swarms Dennis Prager in the future.
He falls and hurts his back and never gets up again.
I like it.
I like it.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I skipped over that now then.
Oh, all right.
So, Eli, I have a question for you about some spelling here, and it's one that I wanted to ask you on the air.
Because it says here the fascism that is overtatinating, sorry, over-tattening this nation.
So my guess would have been overtaking, but in order for that to be overtaking, you would have been aiming for the K,
which is over here on the keyboard you see on the right, and you would have actually typed the word tin.
Like the element.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, K is potassium?
It's just, I don't know what that is, but there's something that I don't know what.
I think there's an accidental N in there that you're not really, you're not accounting for like a rogue nitrogen.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
All right.
I just wanted to make sure before I changed it.
Okay, here we go.
Interstitial 1.
Nice.
Okay.
What color am I?
You're right.
I have to say, you guys,
Graza olive oil is really, really good.
So that's actually great.
I love that olive oil.
Weirdly, you're not allowed to talk about it in the actual copy.
You just have to surprise them and be like, by the way.
Also, I didn't know what that was.
So when I heard the promo code, awful graza,
I was like, what?
Am I having a stroke?
Awful grozell Loon.
Big, palis.
We can't support or something.
Oh, God.
And you know what, guys, I just want to mention real quick.
You don't have to say anything else about it, but it's awful in Cross the right now.
All right, interstitial.
