My name is Charlie Kirk. I run the largest pro-American student organization in the country fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You've got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start a turning point USA college chapter. Go start a turning point you would say high school chapter.

Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist. I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade. Most important decision I ever made in my life and I encourage you to do the same. Here I am. Lord, use me. Buckle up, everybody. Here we go.

The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold, the leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends, and viewers. All right, welcome to Thought Crime. Thought Crime Thursday. I'm taking us in today, which is unusual, because Jack is in transit. He's been in Davos covering the World Economic Forum. Jack, can you hear us? Yeah, I'm actually here in studio.

Oh, he made it back. You did. Holy cow, he made it. See, this was a big question we had. Was Jack going to make it? Can you guys not see me? Like, I'm literally on a camera. No, I can see. We have this technology called cameras that I've been here for like 30 minutes.

They came to me, Jack, which I thought was clue for, you know, Jack's not with us. I'm really sad. We didn't have Jack on phone, though, because we actually whipped up a calling graphic for him. Yeah, we took his human events photo and we fed it through the Chad filter on Snapchat. Can we just see it anyways? And, oh, yeah, do we have that loaded up? We should load it up anyway because it's great. You're going to make you look awesome, Jack.

I just want you to know. We had your back. Yes. You mean, throw that up as soon as you can. There we are. There we are. That's the Greenland gigacad right there. Chad,

Charlie, Greenland, Gigac Chad. Wait, I thought you said you guys were going to put a filter on this. Where's the filter? That's just a normal. You know how many people after your post asked me if, like,

you were in Greenland? Like, I got so many questions. You had to have got asked like a million times. No, so actually, wait a minute. I have to send you guys,

I have to send this in the chat because, so I literally, people are like, wait, how are you back in studio? So I flew from Davos all the way back. I'm back in studio right now, but check this out. I flew over Greenland today, and I actually got to like see parts of Greenland. So, oh yeah, I met, that's Caroline Levitt and

Sonny Joie Nelson right outside, like literally right outside the president. And that's, you know, with the Alps in the background there. And that's the entrance to the World Economic Forum. Davos is kind of a dump, by the way. It's like one of the worst cities in the world, just in terms of a city. Like, you'd never want to go there for tourism. It's, there's I suppose the skiing is like okay, but it's not even really good for like. You know, really? What makes it so bad? It can't even be that big.

It's only a few thousand people, right? What's the equivalent of Davos in America? It's literally, it's a dump. And I remember when I went there four years ago, when I got detained for what I was there with Turning Point. And we called into the Charlie Kirk show. I remember saying the same thing. Like everyone thinks Davos is some like high end luxury town. And no, it's not.

It's like super dumpy. It's like really nothing to write home about. Again, the view is amazing. There's no question about that. It's the Alps. It's literally one of the most gorgeous places in the world. Of course, no question. But the city itself just, it's run down.

It's kind of, it's kind of dingy. There aren't really any, like, luxury hotels. There's, there's, like, one out. You have to drive where, so like where Trump was staying was all the way outside of town, just because that's the only place you could go to get something like happily decent. So what's the equivalent in America of Dombs? Oh, gosh. Flagstaff.

The equivalent. Burlington. Oh, man. See, if I were to say that. And see, now I'm going to like, now I'm going to like offend somebody. All right. It's basically like, okay. All right.

Put it this way. Imagine, picture this. Beach resort. All right. But now beach resort in New Jersey. Yeah, I've seen this. I've seen this. I'm not going to say anything because I feel like the hatred, the amount of hatred that I would get.

What's that one? Do you not say? Oh. No. What's that one South Carolina? By the way, I don't mean Jersey store towns. Because. Because there's some decent beach towns like Cape May, for example.

Tyler, I know your fan. You cannot trash Jersey Shore anything. You will have the wrath of Taylor Swift fans. Avalon is very nice. We're actually going to be talking about Atlantic City in an upcoming segment. Myrtle Beach is like, I love, no, it's MAGA country. I will tell you. Oh, wait, wait.

Jesse Smilett wants nothing to do with Myrtle Beach. A great example. Which one? Just awful. Just like Ocean City, Maryland. It's terrible. Just absolutely terrible. We can, we can, we can, Atlantic City.

It's like the Carnival Cruise of Beech Towns. Is it like Atlantic City, maybe? You could say? It's like Atlantic City now, basically. I mean, as compared to like, like, I, growing up, we used to always go to Atlantic City. So I remember Atlantic City when it was in its heyday. I, when I was a kid, we stayed actually, like, one night at the Trump, Taj Mahal. Because, like, my dad had this, like, conference in town.

And I remember bringing, like, my Sega Genesis. I was all excited so I could play Sonic in the hotel room. But, yes, we actually stayed at the Trump. and and it was like the whole town was just incredible and it ain't like that no more it's it's so run down and like half the um half the clientele are like our chinese like they're excuse me you know they're these huge like chinese sections all over like the Atlantic city casinos i forget why i was there you know a couple years ago and i was like this whole town is just trash because basically like fanduel came in and you know all pennsylvania opened up gambling and table games and

and slots. So it just, it didn't really have the allure, right? I think we did a segment on this a couple shows ago. We were talking about how, you know, gambling used to be sort of this thing where it was like, only Vegas or only AC, and now it's like, you just do it everywhere. Hey, don't forget about Reno. What is it? It's like the biggest, the biggest industry right now, fastest growing industry or something. I think it's really bad. It's a really bad development that we have gambling all over the country. Blake probably has some stats on hand for it. But it's just a, at least it was isolated and you could get away from it. And people with real bad problems could, they had to go out of their way in order to indulge those problems.

And now it's just everywhere. And it's ruining a lot of young men's lives. It's very sad, very sad state. But I'm sending in this footage because I actually, for the, I don't think I've ever actually seen Greenland before. And, and I saw Greenland. There it is. Here we go. We'll send it over.

So we'll have them pull up. It was gorgeous. the mountains were really cool to see when people don't realize by the way that there's a funny like climate change thing you can talk about because people are like well it's all ice why is it all ice yes but because

when the Vikings found it it was so green that you could actually like there were parts of southern Greenland they found it what it was like 900 AD basically leave Erickson and all so you could we're sneezing over here sorry Jay yeah sorry about that no I mean I don't think it was quite like that I think they named it Greenland because it was a scam

And they wanted to get people to move there from Iceland. So he didn't sound better. No, you could actually farm. You can look it up. You could, you could farm. You could farm there. You could farm there. It wasn't great.

They had farming. They had sheep. They had all that up right up until about the 1400s. And then there was what's called the Little Ice Age came about to just wipe that all out. Well, and then recently the sea lanes have opened back up around the ice sheet. So it is kind of an admission that there has been, you know, ice that's melting. Is that you? This is you?

Yeah, this is my footage. It's sideways for some reason. But, but yeah, that's me filming that out of the plane today looking at Greenland right there. Surveying my, so I announced my candidacy for I want to be the first governor of Greenland. I've got the map there on the on the back of the chair for as proof. And so I'm announcing my candidacy for the governor of Greenland. I would make an excellent governor of Greenland. I know all about protecting borders. And look, these are going to be new borders that need to be protected from. who Somalian pirates and Somalian scammers. Under my administration, I will make sure that not one Somali scammers set's foot on any foot of snow, not even one foot of snow, will be graced by a Somalian scammers foot. That is my promise to the great people of Greenland. I would vote for you, Jack. I would, there you go. I would vote for you.

Absolutely. Shall we get into it? Yes. All right. We have a very important topic that we need to jump into immediately. And it's one that I can know Charlie would have loved a lot. And I'm very sad. We can't hear how he would react to this.

Because we need to talk about the dinks and the Henry's this time. Okay, define our terms. All right. So a dink. A dink is dual income, no kids. It describes a large number of annoying upper middle class professionals on the East and sometimes West Coast. Lots of gays. Lots of gays.

Lots of gay men with straight women. Women, lots of, just lots of interesting things. The first place I ever heard, Dink was when I lived in China, actually. That was a huge thing in China when I was there. Oh, I thought you were making fun of their language. Okay, keep going on. And then, so lots of Dinks. And even in the fairly odd parents, if your kids ever watched that or something,

the next door neighbors that his dad is in the Zimbia stuff are called the Dinklebergs and they don't have kids and they always have more stuff than his family. That's probably reference. Anyway, Dinks. And then we're talking about Henry's. Wait, wasn't the Dink's also the name of the neighbors and, in Doug Remember Doug?

I think you're right actually It is the dinks. Oh, they might have been. Man, that's like ancient history. Wait, the dinks. It fell out. And if they don't have kids. I've never even heard of that.

Someone look into that. Someone look into that. And then we have Henry's. So we have Henry's, which means high earner, not rich yet. And that is a term. We have all these fun acronyms. And they're coming from another acronym, the fire community.

Do you guys know about fire? So fire is financially independent. retire early. It's people whose lives revolve around trying to save money as much as possible so they can quit their jobs instead of the normal go work till your 65 or work forever or whatever. Charlie, as we know, was not a fan of the concept of retirement. They want to retire ASAP. They want to try to hoard money, retire at 35, and then live off of whatever they've saved from that point on, either through passive income or just not spending money. And it leads to a lot of very entertaining content. And so This one, this one went viral.

This was on Reddit. They're all congregating on Reddit. Not a good sign. We need to talk about Reddit. Oh, we easily could. But we need to talk about this thread that happened the other day. And it was on the Henry Finance subreddit. Oh, they have a whole subreddit.

Oh, they do. They have many subredits. And so the Henry Finance thread is, how do Henrys afford to start a family in New York City? Oh, there it is. So let's just read it here. Happy 2026. We are a 37-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman, Dink Couple. in New York City, interested in starting a family, but feel we don't have any good options for how to proceed.

I'm interested in what other Henry's think about starting a family in a VH coal, a vehicle, I don't know, very high cost of living city while staying on the fire track or maybe giving up on fire to have kids. Any advice would be appreciated. So this is a family. Giving up or delaying fire. They're worried. They're worried that they might just have to give up on kids or give up on financial independence because it's just too expensive. can we guess what their income is that makes them concerned that they can't save any money while having kids in New York? I know the answer already.

Well, does anyone else not see it? Do you have a guess, Tyler? Hmm, I don't have a guess. All right. Well, the answer is they make over $900,000. Holy glaucomole. So person one is a senior something in big tech. He makes $420,000.

The second person is an associate at a D-tier investment bank, not a prestigious investment bank, lower tier. only makes $340,000 Basically starvation wages He described his wife as being part of a D tier Well he only says person one in person two I'm just sexistly Sexously assuming that she was D tiering And maybe

You know I could make a lot of jokes here but I won't Anyway so with some other investments they have They make over $920,000 a year But their reliable income is only 700,000 Some of that is not It's a little more tenuous So $700,000 a year And so he's thinking

how can we afford a family? And he lays out their expenses to make it clear how much it would be a struggle to add a child to this. So they have $113,000 in non-discretionary spending. This is $97,000 a year on rent,

$7,000 on groceries, $6,000 on bills and $2,000 on riding the New York subway. Wait, how much? $2,000 on transit, on transit, he says. And then they have $173,000 in discretionary spending.

This is their optional spending. Let's lay it out here. we have $32,000 a year on dining out. We have $20,000 a year on entertainment. We have $12,000 a year on personal care. We have $42,000 a year on shopping. And we have, wait for it, $66,000 a year on travel. And I read that and all I could think of is,

I think I could travel full time and I could not spend, $66,000 a year. I don't think that that does not match my daily spend while traveling. Blake would just sleep on like sidewalks and things like that. No, you could just stay in like a cheap Airbnb. These things are not expensive. Or like hostels. When I was broke and traveling to college, I stayed at hostels.

Even going to, like when I was in Italy in October, my friend and I were booking rooms like only one night in advance. And it was like under 100 euros a night. Yeah. Hey guys. If you've been a faithful Kirk podcast list. for any amount of time, then you've probably already heard about Strong Cell. It was Charlie's favorite supplement. If you want to deal with your brain fog, fatigue, lack of energy, or constant illness, then you have to try Strong Cell. People always ask Charlie how he's able to give his

mind so sharp and his energy up. And Strong Cell was his go-to every day. I traveled the country with Charlie watching people ask him time and again if he really believed in Strong Cell. And I loved watching him tell him, yes, he loved it and he used it. And he made us all believers too here at the Kirk Show. Strong Cell uses a proprietary delivery of NEDH to make sure go straight to your cells to help your mitochondria.

Strongsell.com forward slash Charlie. Check it out right now. Yeah. No, I mean, listen, I find this interesting. Actually, the most interesting part about their question is they are wondering if they should abandon fire, which again, define the acronym. It's Henry, high income, high earn. Oh, fire is financial independence retire early. Retire early. So their whole value prop is based around this idea, I want to quit my job as early as possible and just retire. So they are willing to even ask the question of whether or not they should have kids because this will screw up their fire plants. Yes. So there's obviously an entire fire community that's highly developed, that's highly ideological. And this is what their big impediment is.

Did we look at any of the answer? Yeah. I just, it's funny. striking to me because I've never even asked this question before. Like I've never even wondered, should I have kids or not have kids because I want to retire early. It's a huge value decay. And I mean, I guess I don't have kids yet. But it's fundamentally insane to me that you would reject kids for that reason.

But it is, that is the way values have evolved where people, they just prioritize these retirement plans. I think this is really insightful. Like the kind of retire early as your main goal in life. I understand why people do that. does point towards people have jobs that they feel don't give them any meaning and they really hate doing them. And that can be a product of work itself. Like a lot of office jobs are terrible. But Charlie, as we said, Charlie really believe that retirement should not be something you aspire to.

You might not always have the same role. Like once you get old, maybe you should step away from running a big organization and focus on philanthropy or community engagement. You know, take a job at your church and, you know, dial things back. Teaching. Yeah, teaching. I think retirees, I think we're screwing up everything in America. We should have people that have done something and they're on the precipice of retiring. We should be encouraging them and facilitating them to be on teachers.

And a lot of people do do that. I know lawyers and stuff. My mom actually went back into prep school teachers. A lot of people, especially at community college level, a lot of community college professors are that way. But we should do that more in high school. Substitute teaching at high school level. And I was like, which to me sounds terrible. but I mean

there you go by the way this is so what I thought of instantly and Angelo actually flagged this for me Jack do you know idiotocracy have you ever heard of that in the movie yeah okay so you do yeah I like money so Faz you flagged this for me

because finally I just told them that I could talk to plants and the plants told me that they didn't want Rondo they wanted water see I've never seen the movie so I'm not even We actually have a clip from it

No that's what I'm segueing to My first thought was This is really insulting because Mexicans live like four Four people Four families to an apartment They'll just completely You know have eight kids each

And live in like a two-bad You're Mexican aren't you I'm quarter Mexican It's true Oh yeah that kid I read it to hop in a lot You were soliciting that You were soliciting that

When I was in Davos They had Javier from Rav Español. So you guys know that that Rapp Español is kicking off now. And then Javier was like, Javier was like, Jack, you have to learn some, you have to learn some Spanish. And I was like, well, on Thar Crime, you know, or on Charlie Kirk Show, we got the Mexican co-host. So, you know, who does speak some, he's pretty, pretty handy with it, with the Espanio. Yeah, yeah, what is that? There we've taken.

Verada, Vulture de America. I don't know. I don't know Mexico. I don't know how to speak Mexican. We're taking, we've taken, we've taken Andrew, Dan, Dan. to the border and he's negotiating peace deals with border I'm trying to get the cartel to

you know shape up because Andrew gets Andrew Andrew always goes so hard on the border because because deep down he's kind of like conflicted he's like self-flowing He's like hey maybe just a few come across

Come on. It's okay Just one or two NeNees and Natives Oh okay my AI told me that a little translation would be La Vos de la America Real America's voice You always have to check Andrew's loyalty to America I'm just saying

He's a, he's a, no, I passed the, I passed it. I passed the, what is the totem, right? The, the, the, uh, who won, uh, the Alamo? Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. No, but I'm the question. You have to say, yeah, make sure that it's, that it's in good standing. Oh, man. I, you know what's funny.

I am like, CM Porcianto Americano. Like, I'm 100%. I mean, I am about as American as it comes. Because even my Mexican family, you know what I mean? Compensating. He's compensating, he didn't, he didn't even admit that we were Mexican. And we had to go, like, do 23 and me to figure it out. Anyway, he was my grandpa that was 100% Mexican, was racist against Mexican.

And another good test besides the Alamo thing is just, like, how much do you relate to? That is extremely Mexican. How much do you relate to British history as, like, your ancestors? I was actually in a discussion with some Brits because I'm much more German heritage than British Isles. But, like, I care much more about the English history. Like, English history. Like, I love to read about English Civil War, the Kings, all of that. And I don't know nearly as much German history.

happened in 1066. That's easy. Ask me what happened any other year. Come on. That's Blake's sign. He doesn't know. No, no. It's the Battle of Hastings. Everybody knows that. William McConnor, do you want me to go on about this? I have to play idiocracy, this case study. This is the difference between

Henry's and Dinks and, like, Mexicans, which I will claim proudly. 426. Having kids is such an important decision. This is the couple in New York. It's not something you want to rush into. Obviously.

No way. I'm pregnant again. I got too many damn kids. Thought you was on the pill or some shit. Hell, no. Must have been thinking of Britney. Brittany? No, he's down.

There's no way we could have a child now. Not with the market the way that's now. They only make a million dollars a year. That just wouldn't make any sense. Come on out of here, he don't care about you. Yeah, there must be something he liked over here. Me, not to me, baby.

Well, we finally decided to have children, and I'm not pointing fingers, but it's not going well. And this is helping. I'm just saying that before I have in vitro, maybe you should be willing to... It's always me, right? Well, it's not my sperm count. That's my boy! That's my more. Clevon is lucky to be alive.

He attempted to jump a jet ski from a lake into a swimming pool and impaled his crotch on an iron gate. But thanks to recent advances in stem cell research and the fine work of doctors Krenski and Altschuler, Clevon should regain full reproductive function. Your hands off my joke! Unfortunately, Trevor passed away from a heart attack while... ...to produce sperm for artificial insemination. But I have some eggs frozen, so just as soon as the right guy comes along... You know...

It went for generations, although few if any seem to notice. But getting back... That is my... The hearty Mexican people know how to procreate. You know, the funny thing is... It's true. If you sneeze on a Mexican girl, they can get pregnant.

One of my friends who has been a New Yorker of upper, upper middle class professional status, argued that $32,000 a year on dining out was a reasonable amount of... Was it reasonable? Yeah, yeah. But it was high, but like not absurd. And we were doing the math on this.

So two people, 16,000 a year. That's like, you know, a mere $300 a person if you're going on a date night once a week. Or it could be reasonable. And we could have that to $150 a person. But then you're racking up $150 per person on other stuff throughout the week. So like a $30 meal, five other times a week. They're traveling a lot. They are.

And that seems to count separately from dining out. I was going to say, does that. I will tell you. I mean, people who are in, especially the city, in like drinking culture and things like that, there have been people that have said that, I mean, they save like 20 grand a year and just like just by stopping drinking.

No, it's genuinely, like going out. It's a real part of. Most drinks when you go out are like 25 bucks. It's 20 bucks plus. It's a real part of like the millennial malaise, the Gen Z malaise, where they say,

you know, they can never get ahead. They're always behind. And I do think some of it is. It's very easy. to slip into spending too much money on that sort of thing. And you can hear them talk and they'll just say like, I'm already behind on student loans or something.

And so $50 on this once a week, it just feels meaningless. Yet it does really add up. It's interesting that people, I think, that are middle income earners, right? They're sort of middle of the road. They do feel entitled to a lifestyle that is much higher than them, which is previous generations wouldn't necessarily feel entitled to that. What about Gen Z? Are you guys just as bad? Yeah.

No, they spend so much. Really? Especially Gen Z girls, like spend an insane amount. On going out. Yeah. Hi, folks. Andrew Colvette here. I'd like to tell you about my friends over at Y Refi. You've probably been hearing me talk about Y Refi for some time now.

We are all in with these guys. If you or someone you know is struggling with private student loan debt, take my advice and give them a call. maybe you're behind on your payments maybe you're even in default you don't have to live in this nightmare anymore why refi will provide you a custom payment based on your ability to pay they tailor each loan individually they can save you thousands of dollars and you can get your life back we go to campuses all over america we see student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt many of them don't even know how much they owe why refi can help just go to why refi dot com that's

That's the letter Y, then refi.com. And remember, why Refi doesn't care what your credit score is. Just go to whyrefi.com and tell them your friend Andrews sent you. No, it's, I mean, but you think about it today. Like, I mean, prices over the, during Biden inflation went up significantly. Like, even going to dinner now, like, you go to dinner. Like, and this, and this is, it's, I think that there's actually an undercurrent of inflation. some of these prices that that's intentional to suppress family growth.

I really do because like people go out. I'm just going to tell you like you go out and you're a 20-something year old and you're getting ready to have a family and you go out and it's like you and your girlfriend, you and your wife and you spend like $200 on a dinner. Like that's, there's nothing that's more mentally destructive I think for a young man. Yeah, but you kind of insinuate it. that it was intentional to like stop family formation. But yeah, I actually think

the mental toll of how expensive it is to go out and eat, it does block it. That's why the market's changed, right? What? BNPL and all that. You know what though? I could even overspending. The market's changed. Like the market's not directed at families. It's, it's what I'm saying. Restaurants are directed not like attracting big families.

Right. Like they did, like America in the 80s and 90s even were like, hey, bring your whole family to McDonald's. Oh, yeah, play places and all those. That's what I'm saying. brings us back to Pizza Hut. That's what I'm saying, Pizza Hut. Yeah. I mean, all of that was intentional.

McDonald's Playplaces. McDonald's Playplace nationalism. Pizza Hut nationalism. Restaurants that actually have a children's section. Long John Silver. But this goes back. Red lobster. There's intentionality.

Sizzlers. There's intentionality in all these mega corporations that are owned by like Bain and all these different groups that. that now do not direct towards families. Now they're directing towards small groups. I think we're going to have another example that is car sizes. Tyler, do you remember when they started forcing everyone to like,

they were trying to get everyone to buy those tiny cars? They were like, oh, it's, it's only got two seats. It's all you need really for getting around the big city. It's only got two seats and like no trunk. Yeah, the Yaris. Remember was like, get in my Yaris. My Yonis, my Yonis. The men who drove them only had two seats and zero balls.

Anyways. Yeah. And it was like, but I remember, no, I had that exact same thought that Tyler was just mentioning when they,

when they introduced those things, the very, I don't even know what year that was, maybe like 2005. I remember thinking like, how can you have a family if you have one of these? Yeah.

This doesn't make any sense. Hold on. I think Blake's right. Why would you want to sell these? I think we have it reversed. I think we have it reversed. No, we have you studied Agenda 21?

I don't think agenda 21. No, I'm totally with Tyler now. We stopped having kids. kids and they adapted to the market place. He was just in Davos. Because I had the same thought, no, I had the exact same thought about the cars. I had the exact same thought. And tiny houses. No, the market reacts to tiny houses. Like, who is pushing this? And then, and now with like the YouTube algorithm just serves everything to you that that's true. And that's, that's what Trump talked

about at Davos, right? Because when he went up to Davos and was talking about the, um, when, you know, certain people got to be in the room, um, that he was, you know, talking about homeownership. And he was that he was doing that to repudiate the whole you will own nothing and you'll be happy. He was like, I want young people to own a home. I want young people to be homeowners. We are going to make that happen in the United States. And personally, like, like, you know, not that I'm going to give president of the United States notes, but I would have loved to see another line in there like, like, and you know something. It's ownership and owning things and building things that actually give you meaning.

and it's meaning that gives you happiness. Not you'll owe nothing. We have a very important development. Dinks aren't happy. Dinks are not happy. Dinks are miserable. It's not good news. We have a very important breakthrough.

Someone has pointed out Engels Nest has pointed out that Andrew has a jacket on and thought crime is a no jacket zone. Take it off. Take it off. He's been doing it for like two weeks now. It's cold in here. Oh no.

This is called self-policing. I'm sorry, it's not as warm as Mexico. I love it. I only wear a jacket because Charlie wore a jacket. Charlie didn't wear a jacket on this. He didn't wear a thought of a crime. It's so cool. Don't ask for a warmer studio.

Ask him for God to make you a stronger man. Like, where'd your blanket go from the other day? I don't know. He was wearing a polka. This isn't a pretty gay looking blanket. Yeah. That was a pretty fake name. Didn't actually have the, like a heater or something.

Space heater. Basically like a snuggy. And people aren't dressing right on airplanes anymore. That's a whole other thing. Yeah, that's a, that's it. We'll have to say, do that another way. week what it's appropriate to wear an airplane this is what i were on the airplane we want to get to another topic before i think we can agree the dinks are out of control this will be we should

keep hitting that in i actually i just think it's so fascinating and i think there's something really deep there that we're missing about the fact that the more money you have the the way you approach child rearing and be getting children and procreation like it's really really depressing actually because you don't mean that much money to have children you can actually do it you can actually do it. But white middle class dinks and this sort of thing, doesn't even have to be white middle class, but the expectation is that your lifestyle has to be

so high. And then you get to the end of your life, you spend all that money, you probably didn't fire, retire early, anyways, you probably had to work longer, and you don't remember any of it. The trouble is. The trouble is. The trouble is. This is an example. Actually, I actually have a way to explain this. This is an example of parole drift. Blake, I think

did we do an episode about parole drift like a while ago. I think we did. Yeah. So The proldrift is this idea that like certain things kind of like come up from the proletariat class, like the working class and then they go up. But then like the upper classes like maybe mess around with it for a little bit, but eventually eschew it and go back to traditional ways. So you're right, Andrew, to say that it's the Henry's, right? This is like upper middle class. But if you get to the actual rich, they don't live like this. No, they're having babies at all.

They're actually very conservative like in the way they live. Well, and they're by the way, that's why we've seen. live. Yeah, that's why we've seen, sorry to cut you off, Jack, I didn't mean to talk over you. But that's why when you get it to the really, really rich people,

they're having a ton of kids. Like, their fertility rate is like four, four babies per couple. Elon, who, you know, you know, Elon was going to be at Davos. I definitely, I was like,

I would have stayed. Like, somebody could have told me, but. Yeah, I was talking to Kermu recently, and he pointed out, I think, child among, well, so just in general,

children has, at least, I think among white Americans, at least, average number of children is no longer dysgenic, as it were. Like, it's no longer, it's now an upward till. You have more kids the higher you earn overall on average. There's still the trough.

There's still the trough, like upper middle class income is still really bad. They're the ones, these Henry people are actually probably earning too much to count for it. But they're most common is people earning like $300,000. And they're like, I can't afford more than one. Well, there is a middle class trap in our tax code. Like, for real, you can make $3 to $500,000. dollars, you're at the max of the tax bracket. You can never get ahead.

You can never get, because what ends up happening, it's at both end, I will say. You end up spending more, but then you're getting tax more. And so you're actually never really able to make traction and get up to that. Well, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Since we're talking about making money and we're talking about moving up into different tax codes. So this was a topic. This came up because we were debating whether Greenland's,

Greenland sale would happen. And Jack said, of course Greenland's for sale. He says it's like Monopoly. Everything's always for sale. Oh, I thought we were talking to sell. Oh, sorry. No, we got to get this. We'll have to do that another week.

Sorry, bro. You're just admitting that you suck at Monopoly. Yes. Everything is for sale. Yes, everything's for sale. Although I guess maybe it wasn't for sale enough because pockets a bit were for sale. You can buy one of the three properties. No, that's just phase one.

No, no, no. Phase one is you get the deed. Then you build the bases. But once he builds four bases, then he can build the megacity. Yeah, well, I mean, so as it happens, since we made the monopoly comparison, Jack, I actually have the monopoly board here. And if you look at the green lands, I told you we were going to talk about it late in cities. If you have the green lands on the monopoly board, okay.

Okay, well, if you look at a monopoly. Oh, yeah, we can't see it. You guys show the other. Oh, wow. If you look at a monopoly board, there are three green properties. They're the ones next to park place and boardwalk. Oh, yeah, North Carolina, right? Pennsylvania.

That's one of the new boards, right? Pacific Avenue. Yeah. Which they're not well-named because Greenland's in the Atlanta. You know why I never liked those ones? It's because it was like 200. Wasn't it like 200 a house on those? Something like that.

They're not nearly as good as blue. Yeah. And then blue. No, wait. You know why the names are like that though, right? Atlantic City. Yeah. So all the names are based on streets in Atlantic City.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, exactly. And it's very funny. Like, the whole thing is based on some Georgist plot to argue that we need a land tax and everything. And so... Is it really? Yes, it is. It was called the Landlords game.

And the entire point was that, making like that if you had landlords who could just charge money on things, then it will like drive everyone to poverty and bankruptcy and no one can get ahead. Oh, wow. To all live it back to that property tax debate we had the other day. Yeah, because there's only a zero-sum game. It's a winner-take-all. Exactly.

But we did want to hit it. So I guess we have a few different monopolies. It came out in the 1930s. I was looking here. I was looking at the tokens that come in this game. And you know what's missing from the sets we all had growing up? They don't have the iron anymore. which the iron is definitely

I remember the iron Yeah I now I don't remember It'd be anyone's favorite It was like the steam iron It was like the OG iron Yeah you know it was like an iron It was just like an iron just a weight Yeah yeah

Well yeah I mean it's not like It's not like the electric irons we have now Yeah you had to put it on the top of the wood stove or whatever So the tokens we have in this version What do you mean we I don't iron The tokens we have in this version We have the top has something called a wife We have the top has something called a wife

We have He's Eastern European. It's different. We have a little kind of terrier dog, like the, I think it's the Yorkshire Terrier. Yorkshire Terrier. Yeah, I don't know. Is that in the original? Yep.

All right. At least everything I've ever, every monopoly board I've ever played. I don't remember the dog ever. I do. Well, it could be new. A few years back, we partnered with a company called Blackout Coffee. And here's the thing. There's a lot of patriotic coffee brands out there.

But when things get hot, some of them, let's be honest, okay? They didn't stand firm. Blackout coffee did. This isn't just another coffee company. It's the story of an American dream built from the ground up by an entrepreneur who believes deeply in faith, family, and freedom. Blackout coffee stood shoulder to shoulder with us through our darkest days and created a special roast in honor of Charlie to help raise money for Turning Point USA. It's called Unguielding, a bold, powerful blend that embodies everything this movement is about. And a portion of every sale goes directly to Turning Point USA, helping us open chapters all across the country.

So if you love coffee and you believe in what we're building here, support the people who truly live out those same values. Go to blackout coffee.com slash Charlie and pick up a bag of unyielding or any of their other incredible roast. They've got coffee pods, instant coffee, and blends for every taste.

Check it out.

promo code Charlie. So I went kind of like down the rabbit hole in this too. Because my seven-year-old is like really in a monopoly right now. We got Philiopoly. We're like playing that too. But apparently a lot of the original, original tokens in monopoly are not the ones that a lot of people grew up with. So we went out and we didn't have like an actual monopoly game. So I was like, let me just go get a regular one.

So they sell a modern monopoly now. And you can also get though the 80s monopoly. And the 80s monopoly is the one that's based on like this is the game that you remember when you were a kid that had all of those things that you were just mentioning But if you go back to the original originals the tokens are like completely different Yeah, I'm looking at what I remember from yeah the one growing up and I think some of these were at least around by the 50s It's like after World War II you had a pretty good run of like similar tokens So we have the thimble the thimble has been around Yeah, it's interesting they have this one the reason they did this was the original original monopoly did not have tokens and it was basically like pick items

in your home and so people would use buttons or thimbles because they would have sewing kits at home. We have the race car. That's a classic one. That does date to the 30s. So you got to keep the racer. It was a great depression. This game took off. So thimbles were like...

But I think these are all new. I don't remember these. I've got it. I don't remember these from the version I had growing up. We have the money bag. I think this was added in the late 90s. It's like a sack of money. It kind of looks like a baked potato in truth. I've never seen that one. And then these I have no memory of.

Do you want to know the original? Hold on, hold on. Let's go through the tokens. And then we have, I don't remember any of these. We have a rubber ducky. Yeah. We have a putty cat. We just have like a house cat.

Yeah, that's the brand new one. The one I just got has that too. And then we have a penguin. Definitely don't remember a penguin. No. These are all new. Yeah. So, it seems like.

So Blake, is that the one that has the new rules where they actually warn about house rules? they warn you about this. Oh, let's take a look. So, Tyler, you were telling me, you were like really big on house rules, right? Yeah. Oh, yes, it does. It says, your game are rules.

House rules could be making your monopoly game longer. Never put cash in the middle of the board. You don't get a bonus for landing on free parking. Nope. Always auction when someone doesn't want to buy the property they've landed on and never loan money to other players or make deals not to charge each other rent. and so it's so funny because it is true

it's like people have that they'll say I don't want to play Monopoly it takes too long and then they make rules that make the game longer yeah no free you cannot do free you cannot put money in the board I will not play a monopoly or somebody that plays with money but you know what's sickening Jack

this is truly sickening so they have this warning on monopoly but they have a sinister agenda because while we were buying this monopoly set at Target I saw they had for sale next to it expansions for Monopoly Because everybody I saw those

too The Expansions And one of them is called The Free Parking Expansion And it's just a We included

actual pieces and such to make the getting money when you land on free parking thing or reality Except they supercharged

it Like you can basically win the lottery when you get on it Or you can get a There's one where you Can

There's one where you can buy There's one where you can buy everything Like you could buy go You could buy the jail You can buy like

the tax like all the different Yeah, you can buy those. And then the last one is a jail. That sounds really cool. They have a jail expansion. And apparently in that one, you can like go to jail,

but you can get corruption tokens while in jail. And then use these to not pay rent or even you land on some space and make them pay you rent because you're like extorting them. So guess what the first game pieces were? First game pieces? Yeah. Iron. An iron.

Okay. Yeah. A thimble. A shoe. Oh, I remember the shoe, I think. The shoe and the top hat. And get this one. Two that I did not know.

A cannon. Oh, yeah, the cannon. I remember the battleship. Yeah, the battleship. I bet it's like. That was in 1935. By 1936, they had a rocking horse, a purse, a lantern. And it just, it varied in 1936.

1937, they brought the dog in. 19. And so that lasted until after World War II. And so then they had the battleship. the boot or shoe cannon horse and rider iron race car

Scotty dog I think that's the Scotty dog oh yeah there was a horse Thimble top hat wheelbarrow wheelbar A guy on a horse that like the horse is like up on a time legs right

I don't remember that Yeah I feel like it's like it's like It's like it has a platform So they added the penguin The T-Rex There's a T-Rex one A rubber duck

And a Pank They added that in 2017. So they started getting super F and G during I guess we're just lucky. Like in 2020 we didn't get a monopoly that has like the protest fist

and then maybe like a BLM flag. But this is interesting because this must have been what men were interested in. The horse and rider, a battleship, a cannon and a top hat. And women, it was iron thimble like shoe I guess and Scotty Dog

yeah like that that's kind of interesting and I wonder I wonder if the reason they used those was that maybe those were common in other board games at the time or that people would use little model toys sack of money sack of money we have here fan poll

added an 11th token in 1999 and that was the sack of money I don't remember though the sack of money at any point I don't ever Can I see it? So here's the thing, right? The problem with these, with all the house rules, is that people don't understand that when you inject more money into the system, that inflates everything and you're just, you're essentially creating a money printer rather than actually let the economy stay at the level of equilibrium that it would. This is why that it naturally would.

This is why people don't understand inflation. It's just like in the real world, people don't get that because you've been playing monopoly wrong your entire lives. You fools. Stop the house rules. We have to, guys, we have to take a pledge right now. Yes. I'm going to pledge. I pledge.

I will no longer ever use the house rules in monopoly. You might do the expansions, but I'll never, ever do the house rules again. Yeah. Do not play by house rules. You mean you got to stick to the original rules is what you're saying. actually we sometimes play i kind of want that expansion pack that jail expansion Blake is that the one that's $10 with black tokens Blake is that the one where they also talk about the speed version

there's a speed version so if you download the game they actually so it's nice on the on the on the app game which I play on the airplane all the time against the against all of the hard uh CPUs they you can go through and pick house rules and do a bunch of different stuff that's on there or you can do a sped up version which forces every you could do it so you can go to uh auction on every single one and so it just like slams through or you can force everybody to buy uh every single time and and you can skip ahead to where there's a different dice where do you do you doble when you land on go do you double the payout no no that's a very bad one oh i've always played you have to double

on go and i've always played money yeah i've always played money in the middle and then you get it if you land on free parking and then if you land on go you get double. Absolutely sickening. That's how true. Absolutely sickening. It teaches you so many important economic things. Like the reason everyone's going bankrupt, everyone's going bankrupt renting is because you can't add any new properties to the board.

You need to build new housing. What if the reason we have so many socialists is they literally think in terms of monopoly economics where one person wins it all, you don't get anything. and you could just make up the new rules for the house. I don't know. Is that the Indian music? Oh, the MAMDani. Okay.

Gosh, you guys. Oh, you know, speaking of one person winning at all, should we, can we hit this tonight? Let's hit the salary. Oh, let's do it.

We need to bully Andrew Wally's here. No, I'm going to bully you. That's the whole point of salary captain. For those of you who don't follow professional sports, there is 30, there's 29 teams in Major League Baseball that are competing.

And then there's also the Los Angeles. Dodgers who just have a giant pile of money. The Phillies, the Mets, the Yankees, the Blue Jays. No, no, no one. There used to be rich teams and then like smaller market teams. Now there's just the Dodgers. And I discovered today the Dodgers have a rigged system where they don't have to pay like their TV revenue into the general pot because they went bankrupt in 2010.

And they got this rigged deal where they get to keep more of their TV money. Frank McCourt had to sell the company. Yes, they bankrupted the team. And so the MLB gave them a special sweetheart deal in court. It was like a $5 billion deal paid out over 20 years. So they basically get an extra $60 million a year in TV money that other teams don't get. 60 million. Let's more than I think the payroll of my team.

No, that's one contract for the Dodgers every year. Yeah, exactly. And so that's like what? I don't know. Kyle, what's his name? Kyle Tucker. Kyle Tucker. I got to be honest with you.

Usually you don't fall into this trap, but like, it's a lot of cope coming from you right now. Yeah, because I'm stuck being a Minnesota. twins fan and they will never ever be good. You should abandon the Minnesota twins. No, I will not. That's lame. The George Floyd team, like, come on. I mean, Minnesota's, it is pretty bad. They're, uh, their subredits. You haven't been good since you had Kirby Puckett. No, they were okay when they had, uh, Joe Mauer. A few years ago, they had a, had a decent team. They had the, they had the most home runs of anything. They're also in like the worst division, all of baseball by a mile. Yeah. Yeah, that's true too. But I'm trying to think who else has succeeded in that division. Uh, it's been the Indians, like, for the last. five, six years. Yeah, I do not acknowledge the name change. Here's the thing. So you had like the Royals, the Royals won, right? Baseball is different than NBA.

It's even different than the NFL. NFL is probably the in between sport. But you can have the best payroll in baseball and still lose. And candidly, last World Series was amazing because the Blue Jays were playing better than the Dodgers. If you watch that whole

series back, the Blue Jays were the better team. They looked better. They're at The bats were sharper. Yeah. It was, it was, the Dodgers truly found grit and determination. It was a miraculous finish. The year before, they destroyed the Yankees. I mean, it was a five game.

Well, and the Brewers had, like, the best record in baseball by, like, five or six games easily. And they were 20, they were 23rd out of 30 teams. I looked it up in total payroll, 23rd. And they had the best record over everybody by at least five or six games. And then the Dodgers swept them in the NLCS. Yeah. I think, I think, I was looking this up the other day. So the Dodgers, when, was it like, 2013 when they got sold.

Is that right? I think it was earlier than that. I think it was earlier than that. It was like 2010. Yeah. 2010, 2011. When Frank McCourt was a disgraced owner.

But then the big, but then the big story was that they signed this like TV deal. Yeah. That's what Blake's talking about. So there was a whole series like couple of seasons where you had to have, I forget, maybe it was Comcast or something. You had to have like we're like all the money like really built up.

Yeah, probably. They've signed that deal, but then, I mean, candidly, it's been, it's been about a 15, 16 year run of the Guggenheim group, just really running that team well. So they have a good farm system. They trade aggressively. They're better at analytics. They are better at player development. They're better. So what they'll do is they, you know, they got like a guy like Max Muncie, who's a washout with A's.

And then they redeveloped him, and he's a really important batter for them. that highly paid. They raise guys up like Bellinger is now on the Yankees. He was a farm system product. They have Will Smith. He was a farm system product. So yeah, they go out and get a lot of international guys. They're willing to spend money for years though. Remember

when they lost the Trash Trestroes in 2017? Is that what the Trash Towers were treating? Yeah. They didn't go out and get anybody. That was like so finally in 2017 after that World Series lost, they they started spending money. And then they won a World Series doing that. They won the, I believe, well, they won 20-20 during the COVID year.

But then they won. We don't need to, we don't need to narrate every single thing the Dodgers have done. They won after they spent money on Mookie Betz. So then they spent money on Freeman. And then they spent money on Show Hey. And now they're spending- Now they spend money on Show-Hay. They have like not, they've intentionally not spent money on show.

They pay more. It's not smart. It should be illegal. This is, here's my last going. They pay more in luxury tax than many teams do in their total payroll. And they still make more money. Rogers should go to jail. Every person involved the Shohei contract should go to jail.

President Trump should come out and say, no more foreigners are allowed to play baseball. You guys are such crappy losers. Think about it. Every single dollar you spend is either supporting your values or working against them. In today's economy, where you spend your money, it really matters, and that's how we take back our country.

Here's what I'll say. It is good for Major League Baseball. That's going to get clipped. Wait, no more foreigners are allowed to come to America and play baseball with a structured deal like that. He was already in America. We should tax them more. I know we should tax them more, but we should have American

corporations, you know, subjecting poor young men like Shohei Otani to slavery for years like that. He's going to get paid. Oh yeah. He's going to get paid. Yeah. When he's all washed out, he's going to get paid. 45 years from now. Here's what I'll say. He's going to be still collecting. Jack, Jack, you know this. Philly could spend big.

They have spent big. They actually stole some of our players. Trevor Turner. Yeah, exactly. So here's the other thing I'll say. It's good for baseball to have a villain. Just because they won two in a row, everybody's like all but heard about it. Sorry, get over it. It's really hard to win one.

It's extraordinarily hard to win two. It was a miracle this year. He's so super defensive about the Dodgers. A three-peat is almost impossible. If it happens, you guys can complain. That's really hard. This is different because of the farm system. So here's what's going to happen, though.

Here's what, here's my, this is the, like, the conspiracy theory is that the NFL is helping the, the NFL is helping L.A. to get to the Super Bowl because they want L.A. to have a World Series and a Super Bowl because they're trying to turn L.A. into, like, the new sports town. And they really, so, like, they just, I. Obviously, like they've had Dodgers for a while, and now, boom, they want to get, they want to give them. They've got two, all of a sudden, right? You know, just in the last couple years, they've picked up, they've gone from no team, NFL teams to two teams. So now they need, what the SoFi Stadium?

So now what do they need? They need a Super Bowl. And when you look, I'm just saying, man, when you look at some of the call, the play calling in the, you know, the last, the last couple of playoff games, it's kind of interesting, kind of interesting. Kind of interesting. They already got a Super Bowl. What are you talking about? The Rams won. When did they win?

Like two years ago, three years ago? Yeah, with McVeigh and Stafford. And Stafford. No, what I'm saying? Like, they want to build up the Super Bowls. Yeah, all right. So they want them to win more Super Bowls. No, I don't.

There's not any conspiracies of this store outside the NBA. The NBA is in fact like the fresherer. They don't want Seattle. They don't want, or like Denver. Well, that's not true, though. That's why the Royals won a World Series. This is the thing. This is, guys, this is why you need a salary cap.

The NFL actually figured it out where by making the teams pretty comparable, they realized, oh, we're big enough. We can make a team in any city a huge deal. Kansas City is not a major market team. Yeah, but the NFL isn't even that comparable. Like you have, like the jets are terrible. Yeah. No matter what.

In the NFL, the only thing that matters. In the NFL, the only thing that matters is how competent your organization is. And the only place you can really spend extra, I guess, is how much you spend on your coach, because that's not subject to a cap. But it's actually quite strict. You need a lot of skill to build a team in the NFL. And MLB, you have just. No, the Oakland A's where, like, Moneyball was the exact example of that.

The Oakland A's aren't even Moneyball anymore, and they're not even in Oakland anymore. In fact, they're not anywhere. I don't know, man. You look at it. There's some, there's some compelling, I didn't pull it up before the show. I literally, I just flew 4,400 miles to get here for the episode today. But there's some pretty compelling articles out there about how, like, the lineups of, of how certain players get played at certain times to help with, like, the betting, to help, like, cover spreads and stuff like that. and they get played and get benched and all that.

And it just, it lines up in such a way where it's like, is that really just coincidental or is there somebody jam? NFL? Yeah, NFL. No, no, the NFL, like, well, there will definitely have gambling is going to be to scams. There's no way anyone could be corrupt. The NFL is not going to rig at Super Bowl because if they would do that, like there's a million other things that they would have rigged.

Hold on. I just want to make a point. Baseball is not the NFL. It's had an attention issue, right? People are tuning out of baseball. Too slow, too long, whatever. Too easy to buy a championship. Having a villain to root against.

I don't know what the exact metrics were, but I heard that this World Series was the most watched World Series in basically over a decade. Is that true? Yes, it was massive. The ratings were huge. Were they counting, though, like everything from Japan and all that? I don't know.

I don't think so. There's metrics on Japan because like a third of Japan watched or half a Japan watch. but no no it was it was something like 27 and a half million we're watching game six and seven uh it was big big ratings for MLB it is good for the game for everybody to hate the Dodgers and bring it on I mean seven by the way I will say this a seven game world series I would take that no that was great I watched it yeah over even with teams I don't care about I feel like I'm Donald Trump and you guys are all the European sniveling brats who are like oh we could

defend ourselves and look at Kansas City can play very well. I'm like, I have bigger guns than you. Bring it. I do see, though, I'm being attacked in the chat right now and I need to defend something. My integrity here. People are saying, I'm saying that about the NFL because the Eagles lost. No, no, no.

The Eagles lost because they ran four verts on fourth down. The Eagles lost because the play calling on the offensive, from the former offense coordinator was retarded. That's why the Eagles lost. Jack is saying they lost because they got the call. There's a lot.

There's a lot of. No, no. They deserve to. There's a lot of code. There are other games like that interception that was not, I'm sorry, there's no interceptions on the ground. Like, this is not rugby. You don't get to do that.

Oh, that was crazy. Wait, was that the Eagles game. No, that was like, that was a Bill's game. That was not the Eagles. Like, the Eagles, that was a loss. That interception was legit. That was totally garbage. Yeah.

But if you're in the NFL, you'd want Josh, Allen to win that game. Exactly. And then for, then they fire McDermann. The NFL hates Josh Allen. Why do they hate Josh Allen? No,

they don't. They love any good quarterback. They hate him forever. Well, the Broncos ended up winning and Boneyx broke his ankle, so they're playing with a backup quarterback anyways.

So for ratings, Jenny says she's a Packers fan. Go Pat. Yeah. But because he broke his life. You just interrupted us to like cheer the Packers? Yes. What happened to the Packers?

We're defeated because they are. Because the Bears beat him. And then the Bears, The Bears almost had a comeback, and they lost to... The Rams. The Corms. The Rams. You see?

You see what I'm saying? This is the lameest theory ever. This is a very lame theory. What we should just have the NFL... I'm sorry, we were going to talk about baseball, and we talked about the NFL anyway. Everybody says this. I'm not the guy who came up with this. We started talking about baseball, but we started talking about the NFL anyway,

because the NFL is more exciting, and the NFL is more exciting because it has a strict salary cap. No, that is not. And if baseball had a strict salary. Can I actually make it more exciting? The NFL's more exciting. It would have more exciting playoffs. I got to defend Jack because he's a remote. It's harder for him to chime in here.

What's up, Jack? I know I was just going to say, speaking of the NFL, and I know we're getting to get in a showtime here, there's a game that they play at the end of the NFL season that's coming up. Do you guys remember what that game's called? It's like the one game or like you win the big. Oh, it's like a tall metal dish kind of looking big with the stand. Bad Bunny queer celebration of something.

So, well, we've got to read this Rumble Rant that's in here, but I think there's, oh, it's called the Super Bowl, that's right, the Super Bowl, I won't chat like, the Super Bowl, the Super Bowl. And I heard they're going to be having a halftime show with this queer named Bad Bunny. And, well, Blake, do you want to read it? Yeah, yeah, we'll read this.

Is he queer, though? He's not queer. Sandra Gabhart. He's gay. Did you guys see this exclusive Bunny? Bad Bunny. No, he's a queer icon. NFL addressing down how the balance.

boundary pushing bad bunny plans to use super bowl halftime show outfit to honor queer icons oh boy radar online i assume that's just who did the article but yeah yeah well listen the NFL is going to play stupid games and win stupid prizes not it's not a stupid because i i see to remember it's not the super that uh that there's someone someone else is doing another event right right around the same time is that bad bunny show it is true but this is exactly why you know where that group was called? We have stories to tell from this whole thing. And we'll probably tell them after.

That's right. We are. I forgot about that. We are actually. We have stories to tell about this whole thing. The NFL is a is a beast, man. It's crazy. I told you.

Dude, we have drama related to the big game. No, I'm just saying nobody, nobody wants to go up against the NFL. The game that is large. This is what Jack is getting at is more true than you realize. I told you, man.

I was like, They're not going to like this. They're not going to like the name. Oh, man. Wow. That is going to be a fun story. No wonder we haven't heard as much. Wait, are you,

Andrew, are you telling me that there's pressure on people to not get involved with the Turning Point halftime show, to not perform, to not be, to not be the venue? Are you saying that? Is that possible?

My, uh, but could it be an organization that has a, where's the Zoom? Uh, I'm trying We did these We did the thumbnail looks the other day

Is there an organization That's what I was trying to do. Is there an organization that has a large number of monopoly Moneybag tokens? A lot of influence to That being said though. I don't know, Jack. Maybe. Since we're, Maybe we'll talk about it later.

Since we are being vague, I do want to say at least for the benefit of the audience that yes, there is going to be a all-American halftime show and it's getting amazing and you guys are going to love it. That's it it's true. No announcements but I can tell you you guys are going to love it. It's going to be great and the team's done a great

job with it and more announcements coming and they've done a great job with it despite some of the you know things that Jack was alluding to it. It's going to be fun. It's going to be fun. It's going to be really fun and it's going to be fun. And it's going to be fun to watch the reaction

and everybody's, again there's going to be just a lot of hatred and vitriol that's thrown at it and I'm really excited for that. But like you see this stuff from... People are going to be very upset. You see this stuff from bad bunny. Like using it as an... He just wants to put his thumb in the eye of the country.

Of traditional anything. Of America. Whatever. Jack, take us home, buddy. Ladies and gentlemen, don't be bad bunny. Don't be an anti-American. Instead, go out there and commit more thought crime. For more on many of these stories and news you can trust, go to charliekirk.com.
