A robot that looks like a Sheila that's being controlled by a fella in France. Yes, is that gay? No, it's depraved. Hold on. Wait, hold on. Now, I have to... Oh, sorry! Welcome to yes or no, the bibulous battle to discover who knows whom better. My guest today is Matt Frad. How do we play?

I ask Matt a yes or no question. He will select his answer away from my prying eyes. Then I will guess how he answered. If I guess correctly, I get a point. If I guess incorrectly, I lose a point. No matter what, I will probably drink. And it's like 10 o'clock in the morning right now. So it'll be setting me up for a great day.

Then it's Matt's turn. Neither of us have seen the questions beforehand. Whoever has the most points at the end wins, the stakes could be higher. Let's get started. Matt, on this show, we make a wager. Okay. One time, I beat Nick Fradus,

and he gave me a gigantic desert. Eagle, a Catholic Desert Eagle with Deus Vault and the excommunicator. Did you say it? Great video, by the way. So what's our wage you're going to be? I think if you beat me, I have to post some sycophantic rant on my social media about how great you are. And you can even write it for me.

Okay. And same thing. So you just have to gush over me if I beat you on social media. Okay, that's fine. I want another gun. Is there no, maybe a burrata that's very Catholic? I have a kangaroo, I have a taxiderm kangaroo scrotum in my studio. I'll give you that.

No, you know, you could, whatever gun you bring in, you'd be like, that's not a gun, this is a gun. You know, but it'd be like, no crocodile Dundee, okay, all right, that's fine, we'll just move on, that's fine, no big deal. Off to a great start. Do you know the rules? But have we decided what we're doing? We can do the obsequious post. Okay, that's fine, it's easy. Because one time I did this, and it was, we did the thing, it was about, I lost, and it now, and I have to like fly across the country for like a thing.

It's a whole, it's a whole, yeah. I do it. I never do that. The one social media post. One post is, okay. We'll have, I'll have Jacob write it, okay. All right. Sorry, Jacob.

Will the East-West sism be resolved before the current conservative one? Will the... And I guess what you... You guess, no, no, you give your answer and I guess what you say. Oh, all right. Oh, okay.

I think that's right. Do I click the button now? Yeah, you click your answer. All right. Yeah. No. You can't... Wait.

I'm sorry. Wait, wait, what? It's really early. I say yes. Okay. Well done. You were, yeah. I did say yes.

Why? Just because the conservative, the breakdown among conservatives is off the charts. Yes. Also because like, God wills the unity of Christ's church, right? There is a big force that at least by the end of history will bring us all together. Please God. There will be no such force. such force in the American right. That is only ever chaos and division. There is no catacon

of American right-wing politics. It is just apocalypse now all the time. You know, if you want to upset our Orthodox brothers and sisters, what you say is, well, after the Protestant revolution, there were Eastern churches that came back into Union with Rome. That's right. We have 23 Eastern churches, Ukrainian. So what you could say is, oh, it's already happened. There's already been the reunification. It's just some holdouts. That's not true. I wouldn't know. I would take, I would sort of say that. You probably want Constantinople back, though, wouldn't you? I would. In many ways, I want Constantinople back, yes.

I was there recently. Really? In the mosque. And you kept your head. As far as I can tell, it's still on your neck. My priest friend and I, it doesn't matter. That's illegal. You go. My, I go. Wow, we're talking. Okay. Now clear your, clear your... All right. Okay. You go. All right. Now the Pines with Aquinas is hosted on Daily Wire, it's more likely Ben Shapiro convert. It's to Christianity. Okay, and I put this here.

Yeah. We're not even drinking. This is... Yeah, I actually had a sip already, but I'll do another one. Cheers. All right. Cheers to healing the system.

To the Holy Father and death to his enemies. Champagne for my real friends. And real pain for my sham friends. Oh, that's good. Okay, this one sounds creepy, but ends up mildly funny. Ready? To the years I spent in the arms

of another man's wife, my mother. Wow, that's good. Is it? I don't know if it's good. To honor. There's a very bawdy one like frat boys say. Okay. I got to guess what you'd say. Yeah, all right.

Done. I would say not wrong. I said yes. Did you? Why? Yes. Because previously I was the Catholic at Daily War. I met this Catholic too, actually.

But he doesn't, he's not as flamboyant about it, you know? And so he, previously I was the Catholic. And that is a stumbling block to Ben, I think. I think Ben would be less likely to convert. If you became a Protestant, he might be a little more open to it. Yeah, yeah. Or if I became a Shinto, maybe he'd become, you know, just broadly Christian. But the fact that you are here now and he likes you, I think he likes you.

I don't know. He at least doesn't actively dislike you. And so because of that, he's more likely, yes. The only reason I would have said no is I would just imagine he'd dig his heels in. Like we're crowding. Because we're taking over the entire company. Yeah. Hmm, you're right.

Huh. So who do we have to bring in? Do we need to hire a ton of Jews? And then he'll be like, he'll be contrarian enough that he'll switch? No, it's by VHS. He's not very contrarian. He seems to know what he believes and then sticks to it. Whether or out the world will hate him or love him for it. Yeah, I guess so. Okay. All right. We're just drinking at this point. Say love E.

Say love E. So I said no. So you lost. Now, we don't play it normally. Clear my answer, Fred. Don't. I won't respond to you again. I'm sorry. There's someone in my ear and I'm responsible. Who's in your, how much have you had to drink? Should there be a waiting period to interview someone like Lily Phillips, who was a prostitute, but who now is baptized? I'm glad they told me, because I didn't know who that was. Is she public? She says he doesn't know who that was.

No, you actually... Is she a public figure? So there were, yes, she is because you might have read about her. To interview, oh, I see. There are two ladies, not, well, this is all public. There are two ladies who slept with a thousand guys in a day. Oh, yeah, yeah. You remember that.

And one is like, yeah, I heard about that. One is like the good one, and one's the bad. I don't know it's like the way it's in public is like one is truly like explicitly demoniac about it and then the other one is like kind seems like kind of sad and has repented and has been baptized or has been baptized yes has repented is less clear but I I do think I read her as being okay so hold on yeah you so I guess that's enough context all right so now you got a guess what you'd guess guess what I would guess no I got to guess what you would guess oh

What you would say. All right, I will say, I will say that. Yes, there should be a waiting period. For her own sake? Yes. And for else. Yeah. Yes.

But it's not, I'm not entirely opposed to someone who was even in like the extreme deaths of gravity like that to coming out and having a testimony. But it takes, it takes, you need a little time. You need a little time. Bless her. Especially, it's like, if you go out and you have like a crows of, crazy year, you know, whatever. You like do some drugs and whatever, you sleep with like five chicks. That takes a while to get those habits out of you. A thousand in a day, that is...

God have mercy on her. Yeah. Like you need, I think you got to just, you don't want to be exposed to, I don't know. So is she Catholic? Did she become a Catholic? Is that what happened? It looked, I couldn't tell. It was in a, the baptism was in a, like a blow-up pool. And it looked like it was in a vaguely... You know what's tough about the situation is somebody who, who was, you know, who was in a... would engage in that kind of depravity is probably only doing it for attention. Could be. I'm a little... Some do that. I don't mean to be cynical, but my, I wonder if getting baptized is the most controversial thing she could do after that. Right. I wonder that. I was, I read an interview of hers and she said, and I felt, I felt this call to God. And so I'm going to try to, you know, I haven't been able to get to church very much because I'm traveling a lot for work,

but I'm going to try to really prioritize that more. And I grew up in a religious household. But I mean, we didn't go to church, but we were very close to God. And, I mean, I'm not a traditional Christian. I'm not putting myself out that way. Oh, I see. That's why you said she may not have repented. Yeah, but what was weird is it was so contradictory. And I actually read it as sincere.

I think she probably is sincere and just like doesn't. Even to say, I grew up in a religious household, we didn't go to church, but we were religious, means she was probably scandalized like a billion times from the day she was born until today. as she continues to scandalize other people. And it's like, it might be baby steps. You know, it might be. Here's a question for you.

Suppose she had a big Christian podcast and then fell off the wagon and did all that. That's a great. Like, should people like that be coming back to a public? There are examples of this in public without engaging in the sin of detraction. There are people who do this. Yeah, and to differing degrees. It's just, it's an interesting. What do you think?

Probably not for a little while. For a little while at least. Five years, ten. Yes. Like when I say a little while, I mean like five years. I think you need to you need to go do something else for a little while. You know, you're in a very, if you're going to put yourself out as a specifically Christian, I don't know, broadcaster or teacher or something, you, the punishments have to be a little tough.

The penance has to be a little tougher, I think. But what do I know? I'm not a priest. You're up. All right. Clear the answers. Here we go. I'll stop repeating what the man in my ear is saying. Is it possible? Matt, yeah. We all want to get you help. But, but. You need to tell us with the man in your ears. Okay. Is it possible that God's mark on cane in Genesis 415 granted him immortality, cursing him to walk the earth forever, since scripture never records his death,

describes him as a restless wanderer and ones that no man may kill him? I give my answer. Uh-huh. Is this like the eternal Jew? You know the thing of the eternal Jew? Just wanders the earth forever? I gotta be honest. When people start talking about Jews now,

it makes me as uncomfortable as when they start making jokes about blacks. I'm like, I don't know where... Not at all? I don't know how to thread the needle anymore. I just... So, I don't know. There's a plan called The Wandering Jew. Oh, yeah.

Which is... We have some in the backyard. Woo! Yeah, yeah. After I got hired, I planted it. Keep going. Is it natural? Of course.

We had this teacher in... You know, I grew up. All my friends were Jews because it was New York. And then the teacher was explaining, they said, why do they call the plant the Wandering Jew? It's like, because it kind of goes wherever, and it's hard to kill them. is like basically, which is like, you know, that's like a good thing, right?

And, but it comes from this myth of the, of the wandering Jew who like wanders around forever. And is it? It sounds like this, basically. All right. So now, do you answer this? I answered. You already answered. So is it, see, while I was distracting you with the Jew thing, I was answering.

I'm going to go ahead and say no. Yeah. I mean, yeah. I mean, there's possibility and probability, so I suppose many things are possible, but still. He's dead. He's dead. Okay. Now, before I ask you this prompt, we have to watch a video.

Okay. Oh, they will? Your producers will. All right, so then I would say, yeah, because you're legalizing delusion. Yeah. You're legalizing somebody's private delusions. Yes. And I can't, I can know more affirm transgenderism than I can affirm the voices of a schizophrenic, you know, talking about.

Well, you went above me. Good job. Do you stand by what you said, which gave my channel a strike and removed that episode from YouTube? Now, what did I say that you shouldn't go along with somebody's delusion like me with a man in my ear? I guess that was it. Did it have to do with transgenderism? Yes. You got, that's so crazy.

Of course, I said on the channel of eradication, let's eradicate transgenderism. And on the channel on DW where, you know, Matt made that big movie about it and where, you know, Ben was, you know, getting into scraps with the... Why gave you that strike? But you gave me a strike. You nearly destroyed my career, because you said transgenderism is fake. It's still time.

Is it, you know, talk about... Well, hold on. First, you got to answer. Oh, so do I regret it? Yeah. Or do I stand by it? Do you stand by what you said? Okay. Did you answer? Yes.

How do you know what I've said? Yes, we've all said yes. Why is no... Wait, well, you can't do it, Bo. You can't hedge. Okay, so yes, obviously, stand by... You know, though, it's amazing how things change. Now, you're like, I think, I think the giant dudes aren't girls. And everyone's like,

yeah, you weirdo, of course. It is, they don't remember. It is funny. As you get older, you live long enough that you see these things hit culture and feel unstoppable and then peter out. You know, like, so whatever is happening today, if you're young, you might think, oh, this is the answer to all of life's problems. I'm going to jump in, right? But you live long enough and you go, Okay, like where's the new atheism? Where's BLM? Where's transgenderism? Where's Andrew Tate?

Yes. Well, yeah, that's right. One day we're going to wake up and be like, you know, where's Michael North? Yeah, I'll say like, I'll say, and Sunny, back when I was a boy, they gave women driver's licenses. He was like, okay, grandpa, time to get you back to the nursing home now. Like, it should will just be, have been crazy.

Anyway, all right, you're up. If I want to go along with that one. Again. No, am I up? Fredston, all right, here we go. Video, Photo, Prom. Look at image. Prompt.

If you had a robot, a sex robot, here we go. And it was controlled by a person in another country where prostitution was legal. Okay. But where you were at, it was illegal. But you're having sex with the robot. But the robot is being controlled by a person. Is that illegal?

Number one. Number two. If you're a guy and you have sex with a female robot, oh dear. But the female robot is being controlled by another guy. Are you gay? Who is this fella? A great philosopher of our times.

But the robot looks like a girl. Let's say the robot looks like a girl. Like, are you gay or not? Only if you know it's a guy. All right, I really like that. So basically, it's like a Schrodinger's gay. Is there a question? Yeah, the question is, is it gay?

Is it gay? So he's not, it's not, the legal part, that was just an amuse-bush for the meat of our meal, which is, is it gay? If you have sex with a robot. A robot that looks like a Sheila that's being controlled by a fella in France. Yes, is that gay? No, it's depraved. Hold on, wait, hold on, now I have to answer. Oh, sorry.

Wow, I'm going to guess. Yeah, definitely gay. I'm going to guess we, I'm going to guess what you would answer. I'm guessing for myself. Oh, I'm going to give my answer. Okay, I'm giving my answer. You have to guess how I would answer you. You got off on a technicality there.

I did, yeah. All right, there you go. You're wrong. Okay. You know why? You think it's... Yeah, I think it's gay. Homosexual?

Or are you using the word gay in a different sense? No, I think it's gay because it's effective... Well, I'm additionally using gay in an expanded sense. Okay. But it's essentially masturbation, which is gay. Well, okay. I mean, you've got to stretch the word a little bit. What do you mean by gay?

start with masturbation. I can describe it and it's pretty gay. That's all right. I can, it's pretty gay. This is that joke who says, well, we won't go into it. Yeah, but that's gay. And then the other reason, in the more expanded sense, I would say it's gay, is because it's a sterile sexual act, which is gay.

So would you call contraception gay? Yeah. So man's having sex with his wife. Yeah. And they're just good Protestants and you're like, he's good. Yeah, kind of. It's gay. It's, if you, I mean, I hate.

to offend people out there, but like if you do that thing, if you geld yourself, for instance. What is that mean? You know, do a little like, oh, if you get the snippp, snippity snip. Yeah, I think, again, I know people look, it's a crazy world, it's a fault. I went to Yale, so we don't, we don't need to talk about you're gay, you're gay, whatever. But it's gay. That's gay, because it's not, the chief feature of gayness, I think is sterility. That it's a fruitless, unfeckoned union. And that is contraception. But you wouldn't say a fellow who has sex with his post-menopausal wife is gay. He would just say, he's acting in a way that ought to bring forth life.

Yes, yeah, the action is still ordered for the ring. So he's accidentally gay? He's, no, he's not, yeah, you might, you know, it's like one of those, he had a few too many and, you know, the guy at the bar looked a little wayfish. No, what I'm saying is that action, the post-menopausal wife, that is ordered toward procreation. And in the, I don't know, maybe she's like Sarah, you know, and maybe something happens and she gives birth. Whereas, I think that sex- I think you could call it gay by extension, but not gay first and foremost.

If a man's having sex with, well, first of all, it's not sex. It's funny how we use the word sex to mean self-abuse are all sorts of depraved things. It's not sex. But if he's engaging in a sexual act with a machine, I wouldn't call that gay, except maybe by extension. I see where you're coming from. But I would just say it's a, it would be like an action of self-abuse, wouldn't it? Yes, which again, I would say self-abuse is very literally gay. And in this case, the only human beings that he's engaging with, other than this jumble of metal and, you know, I don't know, it's like jagged.

That sounds very unpleasant. But the only human beings he's engaging with are either just himself, a guy, gay, or some other guy, you know, controlling the robot, gay. So to me, you know, and it's like, it's, look, gay just means happy, too. So we're already using a word that is itself a euphemisms. You say, why is it, you know, when you're on a middle school in the, of the play? playground, they're like, that's gay, and they're not referring to any, you know, light in the low first, cold porter kind of activities. So you say like, well, what do you mean by that? And you mean something that's kind of... How do you feel about gay coming back in that sense?

Yeah, I think it's good. I think it's good. Not the gay is coming back. But I don't know, that's going to be clipped. How do you feel about gay coming back? It's great. I love it. I know. And then they're going to click that same-sex attraction and do worry that they find that deeply offensive to them. I don't know. Well, I mean, listen. I'm from New York, I lived in L.A., worked in show business, went to Yale. I have, like, a radically disproportionate number of friends of mine who were a little, how should we say, a little eccentric, friends of Dorothy, should we say, you know, kind of fella has a long handshake, let's put it that way. And the ones, at least, I know, the ones that I'm friends with, they're like, that's gay, they don't care. They don't, you know, they're coming around.

And they would not have sex with a robot, at least my, you know. Well, that's good. So what do we conclude here? Having sex, the robot, you would say is gay. I would say gay by extension, but not primarily gay. Gay by extension. Yeah. No, okay, no, you know what I actually, do want to tell you about?

I want to tell you about a very, very good organization called preborn. There's new research that reveals something truly heartbreaking more than 7 million American women are dealing with. Severe, long-lasting emotional pain after having an abortion. Grief, flashbacks, and a deep regret that, for many, never really goes away. Our sponsors ever pre-born see the suffering up close every day in the thousands of calls. clinics they support across the country. Here is some good news. There is hope.

When a woman sees her baby on an ultrasound, everything shifts. Suddenly her baby's chance at life doubles. For just $28, you can sponsor that ultrasound and potentially change your life forever. This is an organization that I personally support. I strongly recommend you give whatever you can. They offer not only the ultrasounds, but compassionate canceling, care for the woman to donate to pound 250, say keyword baby. That's pound 250 keyword baby or go online to preborn.com slash Knowles, Canada

BLE.S. That's preborne.com slash Knowles. Now, Mr. Frad, it's time for the rapid fire round. Three questions, 30 seconds, no time to outthink each other. Let's go. Right now the score is Michael 3. Do I pick this up? Matt, negative 1. Did your accent contribute to your career's success? Yes, probably. Obviously. What else do I have? Have you worn the, have you worn the Yamika since your viral video. Every day when you're rapping to Phelan. No, wait, what? It's a goodwill.

Thanks. I gave up a point just for that answer. Do you think women selling their feet picks to men is pornography? Is there a middle button? Yeah, I've answered. Yes. So I, it appeals to the prurian interest. I think it's pornography subjectively, but not objectively.

So I think that pornography is material which depicts erotic behavior, which is intended to sexually aroused. I don't think it's objectively pornographic, but I think it's received subjectively as pornographic. So I'd say, yeah, sure. People are paying, they're not paying for any other reason except to use it as a method by which to do something gay. Yes, that was one time I had Brett Cooper on the show, and I mentioned, I forget if I was wearing, like, sockless coppers. And she goes, Michael. She goes, you're just giving it away for free?

You got to sell that. Yes, it's obviously, like, if I was into shoulders or something. And, you know, I was like, a picture of a shoulder is not objectively pornographic or obscene. But, you know, if I'm paying for it, it's doing something. It's doing something for me. Okay. Here you go. You're up.

Interestingly enough, I think the opposite is also true. I think that you can have something that's objectively pornography but isn't received subjectively as pornography. We can talk about that another day. Ready? Like for gay guys. Like naked ladies would be objectively pornography. I was thinking more like a police officer who had to review like an abuse victim. But sure, we can go into gay guys.

stuff that would otherwise be objectively pornography. Oh, 100%. Yeah, I think you can look at pornography and not sin, clearly. Yes, that's true. So that's why I like to make the distinction between looking and consuming. Consuming would imply receiving the pornography in the way in which it was intended to be received. This is like, you know... I really love this.

This is like when your uncle's like, yeah, I read Playboy for the articles, you know, and it's just casual sort of perusal. Okay. Well, think of a mother who finds her child's stash of pornography because we're old, so back in the 90s. She might be horrified at what her son has seen, but she's not actually consuming the pornography preserved. Let's try. I hope not. All right, here we go. Ready?

Drinking more than three alcoholic beverages in an hour is a sin in the eyes of our Lord. I said no. He said no. I would say maybe yes. Because I think it would depend on your constitution. If you could have, I mean, I could have 30, you know, drinks in a day and not sin maybe. Right.

But like, it's hard to have three drinks in an hour and not be drunk. And isn't getting drunk a sin? Yeah, getting drunk is definitely a sin. Aquinas calls alcoholics. Getting drunk once, he calls you a drunkard. So it's definitely a sin. I just think that it depends on some... The Australians can handle three years in an hour and that'd be fun.

All right, next question. So I lost that, did I? You did. Great. Thank goodness. Do you prefer a debate between someone who is Orthodox over a Protestant? Do you prefer a debate between someone who is Orthodox over a Protestant? I don't even really know what that's asking.

How I'll refrain? is it would you prefer to debate someone who's orthodox over eastern orthodox over a protestant would you prefer that i'm going to say that you would say no i said yes do you know what because we have more shared ground okay whereas if i debate a protestant you know protestant is just it's a negative category so i was telling john christ yesterday we were you right yeah i mean it just what are you protesting against john yeah yeah definitely you know the guy in the mozetta in rome but other than that It's like, I don't, it's a moving target because I say, okay, well, Martin Luther said this. I say, well, I don't agree with that.

Or John Calvin said this. I don't agree with that. At least with the Eastern Orthodox, they're also kind of divided. But you could say, like, all right, let's talk about the fili-oque way. Okay. Let's dig into the fili-oque-way, Mr. Beard. Okay. All right.

Is Sharia less compatible with Christian, hang on. What is this? Sharia? How do I say this? Like Sharia law? That's where, so I got it right. Okay, you're so Catholic. But why is he saying, is sure, why wouldn't he say is Sharia law?

Is Sharia less compatible with a Christian country than liberalism? Oh, okay. Hold on. Now, again, because of the illiteracy that pervades these questions. Yeah. The, is it, is Sharia less compatible with a Christian country than liberalism is? Or is it is Sharia less compatible with a Christian country than it is with liberalism? I don't know what they're saying.

I don't know that they know what they're saying. I'm going to read it as, is Sharia less compatible than liberalism with a Christian country? All right. Okay. I don't know. Yes?

Yes. Yeah. It is, right? It's just liberalism is a perversion of Christianity, and it comes out of Protestantism, and Protestantism comes out of Christendom, and Christendom, you know, it's just like, it's all kind of a piece.

Whereas the Muslims, they just take, like an historian heresy and then turn it into Arab nationalism and, you know, chop people's heads off. It's just a different situation. All right, fair enough. Folks, do not forget. You can bring yes or no home. Say yes. Don't say no. Say yes to yes or no. I don't want to boast. This is the best-selling game and the most important game at the Daily Wire. And it's not even the only game. They actually other people tried to rip me off, like Matt Walsh, but it's still the best-selling game.

It is based on my hit internet game show, 200 cards covering everything, from matters of taste to the most profound subjects. You can play with up to nine people, which makes it perfect for dinner parties or family gatherings when you want to find out how well you know the people around you. Can you predict a loved one's stance on whether sacred tradition matters? If feminism has made women miserable? Whether birds or drones operated by the U.S. government to spy on citizens, these are the important questions that define us.

Matt, but the party doesn't end there. We've got expansion packs with even more hotly debated topics. We've got here, oh, this one's upside down the whole time. We've got the politics, philosophy, and religion pack. We've got the dating and relationships pack. We've got the conspiracy theory pack. That one's my favorite one. You get it all.

At dailywire.com slash shop. You head on over there right now. You pick up yes or no today, Matt. I couldn't tell if you were having a show of Matt Walsh for me. I know, it's very confusing now. Why not both? It's time for the final round. The prompt will be read.

We will both look at our answers. We'll lock in our answers. Then we will move our glasses to yes or no to see if we can read each other's minds. This round is worth double points. Oh, good. Some fail-up. I know, I don't.

The thing in the prompter says it could change everything. I think I just won, though. I don't think it's possible for you to win at this point. But watch anyway. Oh, yeah. Do you believe? Non-believers are fair game, but that Matthew 18, 15 to 17 requires a private DM before calling out a fellow Christian sin publicly or a fellow Christian's false teaching that's already been posted openly on X. Can we call out people without going to them directly because they're non-believers?

But if they were a Christian, should we approach them first? Is that what he's saying? Sure. All right. Oh, that's interesting. Yeah, okay, so I would say, I would, yeah, I would say that. You would say yes. No, I would say no. Okay, that's good for me to know when I move your glass. Oh. Was I supposed to press that? Yeah, you lock in your answer. That's okay, don't worry about it, though.

So it's with double points. So I would say, no, I think the general principle, doesn't that hold for, for like, atheists and Muslims and Jews? Yeah, they're not, we're not just going to reduce them to like moral dimitude or something. Okay, fine, you could kind of attack them. But maybe, what if I just secretly press yes? You got to move you. I can see it. I can see that you didn't. All right.

What do I do? You move mine to yes. No, I'm going to. Correct. Oh, it's like I let you lure me. Also, we got to move this box. He can see my answers. I didn't mean to.

This is so ridiculous. Okay, you're up. All right. Will the end times, as described in the Bible, involve AI? Why? So, we lock in first. Okay. I don't know what that means.

Sure, okay. I'm really bad at this game, dude. Did you say yes? Yes. Yeah, I guess. It'll involve it, yeah. It'll be the main character or not, I don't know, but I don't think it's going anywhere.

It's not going, it's like, it'll involve polo shirts. Remember that light, those... Dwight Shrut, who says once this internet thing is over? And I just thought, I don't think the ain't know thing's gonna be over. Do you think, though, to make that dumb question better, do you think that will AI be like a big part of it? Well, the history won't be written because we'll all be singing. I've got no idea. What do you think?

Do you have a strong opinion on it? So, some people think that AI is the Antichrist or something associated with AI will be the Antichrist. Peter Thiel has given public lectures in which he states the opposite. Peter Thiel, who's a big AI guy. Peter Thiel says that, no, the Antichrist is more likely to come about from trying to restrict AI, which is kind of convenient, you know, because he's got a big AI company. And so it's like a good marketing, arguing. Yeah, it's excellent. But Peter Thiel's a very intelligent, very thoughtful person. And so, you know, I think you have to take the argument head on. And I don't know, that's definitely

the more libertarian side. It's like all the bad stuff comes from the government doing anything. And, but I don't know. Like if I, if the AI told me like, hey, If you try to regulate me, that'll bring about the Antichrist. I'd be like, you know, that sounds a lot like something the Antichrist would say. Right. It does seem like a truly false god and certainly at least a modern day Tower of Babel. So it even pertains, you know, fundamentally to language. So, like, it does, AI seems kind of special.

I'm a Luddite generally, but I think as far as technological innovations go, this one is particularly scary. I don't know what it'll look like in the end times, and I don't know when the end times will be, so that's really hard to talk about. One of the near future things, results I see happening with AI is people, all of us will start to distrust what we're watching, and that will include podcasts. I imagine very shortly you'll be able to watch an entire podcast from your favorite host, and it won't be him, and it won't be what he wrote or said. And I think because of that, in-person events will, the demand for them will skyrocket. And so the prices to go and watch Seinfeld or Metallica or Nate Bagatio, whoever, will go through the roof. Because what I'll just want to be together? What if I told you and what if I told you that I am an AI and I'm not really here?

And this is where the editors will edit me out. I see. And I'll become like a cloud of technology. And then they'll bring it back and I'll like, from back in. And then I'll say, go check out Pints with Aquinas. on DailyWire, YouTube, or wherever you listen to podcasts, I won, I look forward to your obsequious advertisement. That'll be nice.

I'm a robot. See you next time on Yes or No. And this is where the editors will edit me out. And I'll become like a cloud of technology. And then they'll bring it back and I'll like, boom, back in. And then I'll say,
