Will Cain Country - The Charlie Kirk Case Just DESTROYED the Conspiracy Theories

Episode Date: July 10, 2026

It may still only be in the pretrial phase, but the case against alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson looks to be nothing short of ironclad. In this somewhat more serious than usual Friday edi...tion of Will Cain Country, Will and the Crew break down the overwhelming amount of evidence in the case thus far and help decipher the terminally online rhetoric that likely was responsible for Robinson’s radicalization.Plus, they take a look at the main gripes the average American has towards soccer, whether it be the constant flopping or the dreaded offside rule, and share their thoughts on how the sport could be “fixed.”Subscribe to ‘Will Cain Country’ on YouTube here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch Will Cain Country!⁠⁠⁠Follow ‘Will Cain Country’ on X (⁠⁠⁠@willcainshow⁠⁠⁠), Instagram (⁠⁠⁠@willcainshow⁠⁠⁠), TikTok (⁠⁠⁠@willcainshow⁠⁠⁠), and Facebook (⁠⁠⁠@WillCainNews)Follow Will on X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@WillCain  Learn more about your ad choices.

Starting point is 00:00:19 Truth matters, and I'm not sure the truth matters. But if the truth matters, yesterday was a really bad day in conspiracy theories on the assassination of Charlie. It is Wilcane Country normally streaming live every Monday through Thursday. At 12 o'clock Eastern time with the Wilcane Country YouTube channel, the Wilcane Facebook page. But just hit follow at Spotify or on Apple or on YouTube. Are you guys into UFC? Not even a little bit. Really?
Starting point is 00:00:54 Both of you? I'm not a you ever see again. I tried. It's nothing I've ever tried to do or being interested in doing, so I just can't get into it. And it's not just the violence. It's just like, I don't know. I just don't understand it.
Starting point is 00:01:12 With all the Brazilian jiu-jitsu in it, I think it's kind of fruity. Like a bunch of getting on the ground, traveling guys. Yeah. Just a little, I don't know. To kick your ass. I just don't.
Starting point is 00:01:29 I've got so many things to say. Like, okay, first of all, there's a chance. There's always a chance that Patrick and I are in the same algorithm, which is a real shame to me. It's shameful. It's embarrassing that I'm in the same algorithm as you, Pat. However, this did just pop up in my algorithm. I'll play it on my phone. Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Why is that? Hold on. Okay. Here we go. You ready? I don't know if you can hear it, see it. Hold it up. I would say it on camera.
Starting point is 00:02:25 Okay. So look, if someone's going to attack you, the way to defend yourself in Jiu-Zitsu would be to get into God and see how good you will. Pretty gay. Can I steal my material? I don't know how that caught in my algorithm? I did not see that. I've never seen that.
Starting point is 00:02:44 You've never seen that? I've never seen that. I've never seen that. I've never seen that. I've never seen that. That's how I was able to find it so quick because I'd sit it to my brother yesterday. And that's not AI, right? Because isn't that the guy?
Starting point is 00:02:58 It's an African black guy. Yeah, he's the exact video guy. He's leaned into it. Yeah. Why? Oh, is it the same guy? Why you gay? I think he does cameos too where you could hire him to do it for your buddy.
Starting point is 00:03:12 It's become a thing for him. It's become his bit. His, you might be a red. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. It's a good bit, though. Jiu-jitsu? It's gay.
Starting point is 00:03:23 I mean, if you look at it, it's a lot of rapping and rolling. All right, this guy turning that into a bit. He's sweaty on the ground with dudes, you know? It's kind of weird. All right. This guy turned this to a bit actually takes me into something. So how is it you like, I have these complicated feelings, and you're beginning to represent all of them, Patrick. Like, I think about these young dudes now, and they're blackpilled and they're concerned.
Starting point is 00:03:51 spiritual and man they're soft and they're victims and honestly even i don't care they're feminized even this way of thinking like what are you doing and they're this you're this guy and you're into wwee but not ufc like think about that and i don't begrudge someone someone's being into WWE. But if you are into WWE, but not UFC, you have reduced
Starting point is 00:04:29 WWE into the theater of it. And that's it. And you're now a theater boy. The theater boy. WWE is one of the last forms of older entertainment that we've had traditionally
Starting point is 00:04:43 for thousands of years. Entertainment. Vodvillian. Yeah, it's entertainment. But not sporting. It's like, It's like a male musical, essentially. Yeah, I mean, I know what it is.
Starting point is 00:04:56 That's not helping your case. I don't care. Yeah, this is not. I also love Les Miserab. Whatever. He called me a male theater. None of this meshes with his hockey enforcer nostalgia he tries to throw onto the show every once in a while. His hockey goon that likes La Miserab in male theater.
Starting point is 00:05:17 John Valjean. I don't know. I heard this other day This is like The I Hate Soccer Bros. This is part of my problem with the I Hate Soccer Bros, right? I heard somebody saying this on radio
Starting point is 00:05:34 the other day and I think it's true. I could get into any sport. I think I could literally get into any sport. Yeah. It is a matter, the drama of human competition is entertaining.
Starting point is 00:05:50 And then if you add in a couple of elements, which soccer really has, then you've got the makings of high entertainment. And those two elements are, I would suggest, storylines. As long as you get to know the stories involved in the competition, you can be more invested. So, you know, if you start understanding, you know, Scotty Schaeffler versus Roy McElroy, their backstories, their personalities, you're going to care a lot more. about the golf tournament, and you can get into it. If you watch volleyball, but you know the stories and the names of several of the girls in the volleyball match,
Starting point is 00:06:32 you're going to get into it. And, I mean, back to the soccer thing, I'm going to be into it more understandably because I know a player on every team, who he plays for professionally, probably a good chance, decently, of his career arc. I know less about his personality, probably, fewer those guys. as an aside, I read this article this morning. It is so interesting how Erling Holland is breaking through. Like he is literally the moment.
Starting point is 00:06:59 And it's not just me. They're now memes about Erling Holland being in everybody's algorithm. He's in everybody's algorithm. And he is the breakout star of this World Cup. For me, I feel like there's a little tiny bit of me that's like, don't be the garage band guy. Like I knew who he was and I was a fan before all of you. who are who you guys. That's the exact thing we hate about soccer guy, right?
Starting point is 00:07:23 But I do think, like, analytically, it's fun to think about why this guy is breaking through. More than, say, Harry Kane. Like, Harry Kane's having a great World Cup. He's English. He speaks English. And he's having a great tournament, and he's popular. Like early holidays.
Starting point is 00:07:43 I think that's exactly right, Dan. And it's a caricature that Americans like. And a lot of the breakthrough, is in America, but it is globally. And it's the style of play. It's the body type. It's the humor. He's self-deprecating.
Starting point is 00:07:59 It's his personality. And it is the caricature of a Viking. Like he literally looks like a modern incarnation of a Viking. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. That's amazing. That's what I was saying the other day in the chat.
Starting point is 00:08:11 I'm like, I understand I'm not a soccer guy, okay? But if you look at Holland and Messi, and they're both built completely differently. They play different styles of the game. But when you try to take them down, take them out, they just keep going. There's no stop in them. I think Americans are drawn to that because when they watch... You're talking about flopping. Yeah, yeah. Because when you watch most soccer, there's a lot of flopping, a lot of drawing fouls, a lot of, you know, it feels like as an American, you feel like, hey, why am I watching this? Like, we like sports. We like our sports guys tough. And even messy who's small, he just keeps going. He's not stopping because you try to take him down.
Starting point is 00:08:52 I think that the metric of all the things you say of all the and that's Holland has that and I do think that makes Holland a unique character for breaking through in America. Of all the critiques, you know, being a soccer fan in America and certainly being a soccer fan among conservatives feels a little bit like raising children who will not listen to you. You will not listen to me about the greatness of this. You will not listen to me about the ultimate entertainment value. And it makes me really question my own persuasive abilities. Now, I understand it.
Starting point is 00:09:22 I'm working against some massive cultural tides. But most of the complaint, I want to also say this, as I've said before, I was you. To be clear, I was you. I made fun of zero zero. I made fun of nil. I made fun of flopping. All of that. Okay?
Starting point is 00:09:42 And I've come all this way. And so I know all the complaints. And I've let go of them. And so some of them. So, for example, the clock. A lot of Americans say, I'm into this World Cup thing, but I'm still upset about the clock. Why can't we just have a clock that ticks down? But I'm over it, Patrick.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Like, if you watch it, you get it. You understand this is how the game works. And it's like, honestly, my son's played a high school soccer game against a league that, for some reason, does the clock differently, and they stop it and count it down. And it's totally disruptive. You're like, I don't understand what's going on. You're used to playing the sport this way. It's a running clock.
Starting point is 00:10:21 The ref adds time. Yes, it's not as bright a line in American sports where it's like zero. You never know when it's going to end, right? But you roughly know, one would say, within a minute, minute and a half of when it's going to end. And look, if you're being real, when the clock stops in a game is also somewhat arbitrary. So it just doesn't bother me anymore. The clock, I'm just walking you through. I understand your complaints.
Starting point is 00:10:46 and this one does not bother me. If you're watching a game with me and my sons the other day, I can't remember what game it was. I did say, God, call it, ref. It's got to be over. So you'll say that at the end of the game. But that being said, it does nothing to diminish my enjoyment of the game. It does add suspense.
Starting point is 00:11:04 I'm not saying it's better. I'm definitely not saying that, but it does not compromise your enjoyment of the game in any way. I won't say nil. that I don't say pitch and nil and all that stuff, which is a turnoff for Americans. Zero, zero. Okay, ties.
Starting point is 00:11:23 I'm over ties. Like, that's another thing Americans hate. Ties. I don't have a problem with that. And it happens because you're a hockey guy, because you're a hockey guy. But I believe that, and in football too, but I believe that you should be able to have ties,
Starting point is 00:11:37 especially in regular season. I don't think ties are wrong. I think ties are wrong in baseball, because baseball just doesn't have ties. But outside of that, I don't think it's a problem. because you have so many games to have a tie occasionally.

Starting point is 00:12:14 Yes. Okay, zero-zero, that is a complaint of Americans. Oh my God, a tie and nobody even scored. How entertaining could that game be? Here's what I'll say on that one. You have a percentage of you that's right. A zero-zero-zero game is not that entertaining. It's not.
Starting point is 00:12:30 It can be, depending on actually how the game is played, it can be. But odds are a zero-zero game is not a great watch. But the one complaint that you have that you are 100% correct on that I agree with you, even as somebody who's watched soccer for well over a decade now, is the flopping. In no environment, well, one environment. In almost every environment, I hate it, meaning youth soccer, high school soccer, professional soccer. Every time I see it, it is a revulsion and a turnoff. And it's a big one.
Starting point is 00:13:06 And I get it why Americans hate it. And that is probably why Americans say it's a cissy sport, because if you are in any other proximity to the sport, you will see how physical it is. Like, it's, it's incredible. And that's, I was listening to local radio guys, a guy who just started watching saying this, he goes, I didn't realize how physical it is. That's one of his eye-opening things. He's like, you know, we have combat sports, contact sports, and he was like, obviously it's not football. That is a combat sport. But among contact sports, it's more physical than basketball. I'll stand on that. Soccer is more physical than basketball.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Yeah. More things that actually hurt. No, I do. More things that can actually hurt you are happening on the soccer field than they are on basketball field. Basketball is like, did I turn my ankle? Did I, did I tear my ACL? Mostly non-contact type injuries. Soccer has in the game contact type injuries.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Yes. And I agree with that. I think one, like a lot of Americans critique right now with basketball is you have a lot of flopping. of LeBron, SGA, those guys flop a lot. And I think that's one of the things that is kind of a turnoff for that league as well. But I do agree with you. There is a lot of physicality to it, but then you also have the flopping and that makes it kind of... But if you stop rewarding it.
Starting point is 00:14:30 So back to that. Yes. That's right. So well, hold on. Americans don't trust that there's physicality because these guys also exaggerate the physicality of it. And I hate it, too. And I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:14:44 I like that Holland doesn't do it. And I guess Messi doesn't do it either. That's true. But one could say he's not smart for not doing it. Holland has said that his dad taught him, you don't do that. You put that in our group chat. I've taught my kids the same thing. That one exception I said is in the box because it's so valuable to get a penalty kick.
Starting point is 00:15:05 And if you do that in the box, I mean, you're just playing into the incentive system as it is structured. And yeah, you fix it by changing the incentive. You fix it by changing the refs. But that is the one thing. This guy in the radio said it perfectly. He said, same as me. As a soccer lover who invites his non-socker friends to watch it, when you're watching a game and one of these guys does that,
Starting point is 00:15:30 you feel like, come on, guys, not in front of the company. You know, like when you have a misbehaving dog. Like, not now. Not in front of the company. Like, can we please get it together? Killing Mbapap. can you not fake it at midfield? It does feel that way.
Starting point is 00:15:47 You missed one, though. Offsides is infuriating. It's necessary. Yeah, I can do what it's called. I don't have a problem with the idea of off sides. But how they call it? Yeah, hockey kind of fixed theirs. They have like a delayed off sides.
Starting point is 00:16:04 They got rid of the two-line pass issue that was kind of messing up the flow. It's been a huge factor of this World Cup. It has been. I mean, America had two goals called off, you know, in one of the games. And it's like it just screws the flow. But you know the purpose of it. The purpose of it is to ensure no cherry picking. That's best of what it is.
Starting point is 00:16:23 We don't cherry pick. That's fine. Don't cherry pick. Yeah. I know they're probably not going to install a line or add a line to the field. But like, I think there was a, there was a suggestion where it's like if you're, if you have distance between the last defender, that's when it's an offside. It's not just like, oh, you have your nose or, you know. We talked about that here.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Arson Vanger is a famous coach in, and is primarily, I agree with his suggestion, change off sides to where one part of your body has to be in line with a defender, instead of any part of your body beyond the defender, right? I think that would fix a lot. I think it's reasonable. Where I think I started this before I got into the distraction
Starting point is 00:17:09 of Holland being the breakout star, is you being such a drama boy, a theater boy, and not into UFC. And Holloway versus McGregor, it's going to be incredible. After I went to UFC Freedom 250 and watched that fight, I went down the rabbit hole. Because Justin G. and Ilya are in that weight class, essentially. It's two-way classes. You can kind of fluctuate between. But with Holloway and McGregor, there's some other guys, and I can't remember off the top of my head,
Starting point is 00:17:39 I started like going down the rabbit hole of their records and when they've beaten each other and in exchanging titles. And this is McGregor coming back after a huge layoff and Holloway is a great fighter. And so I'm excited. Patty Pimbley's great to watch that fight. Patty Pimlet's in that way, class. Yes. And he's a character and fun.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Did you know who he's the last one? Yeah, I know of him. Yeah. No, no, no, no. McGregor. Didn't he break his leg? Was that his last fight? Or was it the fight before?
Starting point is 00:18:09 I don't know. McGregor. I don't know. It is the closest. I know Patty, though. It is the closest thing we have to like gladiator entertainment, you know, from back of the day. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:18:20 Yeah. Absolutely. Now, I'm not in on every fight because, like we said, I will enjoy every sport if you give me the characters and the storylines involved to complete this on why you would like UFC or soccer for that matter. I literally think I could get in on any sport if I understand the storylines, the characters involved, and secondarily, if there is some external passion around it, that you can get swept up in.
Starting point is 00:18:45 And external passion is huge. I would, I would, I mean, you could take me to a high school volleyball game. You could take me to a high school anything. And if the two high schools are into it and I'm watching, I will get invested and care about the outcome of that game. And the World Cup, soccer in general, but the World Cup and particularly, literally the only passion. And this is only so Americanized to say this. If I may he was listening to more,
Starting point is 00:19:10 so he'd be like, what are you talking about? It's college football. It's the only comp. And to be fair, it's higher than college football. Although I think college football does get close. I do think, like if you took your most invested English fan of whatever club
Starting point is 00:19:27 in England, our professional sports fandom doesn't match that. But I do think our college sports passion gets close to that. And when you have that, how are you not entertained? That's true. I mean, I could see you
Starting point is 00:19:45 at a high school volleyball being like, who hey two? What are the rivalries? What are they doing? Yeah. Yeah. I can maybe see volleyball, but I can't get into other women's sports. It's just such a bad product. I just can't. What did they do to you?
Starting point is 00:20:02 They've put this stuff on ESPN 24-7 and shoved it down our throats. So, yeah, I'm a little turned off. Well, on a more uplifting note, we have this from Chevron. Since 1879, there people have been more than a source of energy. They've been a source of progress, helping deliver record U.S. energy production and fueling the breakthroughs that move America forward.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Learn more at Chevron.com slash 250. This week, the preliminary hearing in the Tyler Robinson trial of the murder of Charlie Kirk has been something. huge, huge amounts of evidence were put on display yesterday in the... So a preliminary hearing is a pre-trial hearing. It didn't make sense to me. So somebody said, now I'm not sure this is true, but in Utah, think of it like a grand jury. You have to prove there's enough probable cause for the charges to move to trial. Now, obviously, that's not a trial yet.
Starting point is 00:21:05 and it's not beyond a reasonable doubt, your burden of proof. It is probable cause. Probable cause is immeasurable. Like, what is that? But it's enough. That's the answer. Is there enough here to move to trial? You know, we're familiar with the phrase probable cause when we're talking about an arrest or not a stop because a stop from a police officer standard is reasonable suspicion. You know, probable cause is above reasonable suspicion. reasonable doubt is above probable cause on the burden of proof. And they have so far exceeded what any rational person would need for probable cause that it makes you begin to wonder what's the point in this preliminary hearing. My point is they have provided. Now, DNA evidence linking Tyler Robinson to the rifle and to the towel in which the rifle was hidden in the bushes to a one in quintillionth percentage that,
Starting point is 00:22:05 It could be somebody else besides Tyler Robinson. They showed a map of his movements that day where he was on top of the building. It's on video and it's mapped where he jumped down, where he ran across the parking lot, where he went to the woods. That's where the video loses him when he goes into the woods where he stashes the rifle. His movements are all over video mapped out with DNA. his bullets have been recovered, wherein the bullets, and this is the most chilling part to see, I don't know, for me, I don't know if this is for everybody,
Starting point is 00:22:43 because we've reported on what was inscribed on the bullets for a year now, or a little less than a year. And I can put those on TV. I can type them out in a news article, but seeing them etched into a bullet casing, I don't know, man. It's like, it's just way. way, way more chilling. It's just way more, oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Agreed. And they also have a continuous message, at least in part. You see that? Like, one of them is inscribed, hey, fascist, the next catch. This one seems to connect to nothing other. This says notices bulge. I only can presume that it's something having to do with trans because he was into that. It's a meme. Like an anime meme.
Starting point is 00:23:34 It's so online-coded all this stuff. It's crazy. A lot of this. Yeah. That's right. Let's take a quick break. But we're right back on this Friday edition of Wilcane Country. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Someone's already claiming this is our year. Someone else said that last year, too. A round of James and Ginger and Lime arrives at a table. Smooth enough for kickoff, smooth enough for extra time. New friends pulling up a stool. Debates about whether that was a handball. Cheers rising like a roar around the room. Because match days are about the shared moments.

Starting point is 00:24:46 There was another one of these mass shooters. It was super online coded. He was writing stuff on his rifle. Remember that one? Yeah. Was that the Minnesota one? Yeah, it's just, it's that culture. It's these dark web kind of like
Starting point is 00:24:57 forums that these people just meet like-minded people and they live there. That's their life. That's reality to them. And then when they come into our real world, they feel that they could bring that into the real, real world. And it's just unbelievable. And this is back to that you thing that it's like, it's like funny, but not funny. It's not funny to anybody else in the world, but they're acting like it's funny. You know, like this internet lingo, which there was another one. It's like OWO, something else. I can't remember he etched. Then he had one that was up arrow. What does that mean, Patrick? like Oulu or something like that.
Starting point is 00:25:32 It's like it's it's an anime thing I think. It's like a girl thing like it's a femme type thing for online. A lot of these guys are like kind of femme guys because of anime culture. So it's one of those like just saying. Really? That you say it to just show that you're one of them, you know, like they dress like Oh really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:56 And the same thing with the arrows. Like one of the bullets was etched with up arrow, right? arrow, down arrow, down arrow, something like that. Which again, is something to do with video games, right? Gaming. But then he has a series, what is the one where it's like, it's like, oh, there's one that says, if you read this,
Starting point is 00:26:13 you are gay. On one it says, if you read this, on the next one it says you are gay. I don't know, there's something about that that, his brain and the, that humor. Do you see what I'm saying? Like, that's not funny. They're all just memes.
Starting point is 00:26:30 That's it. like every single one of the things you just named is a meme that people laugh at that have a dark humor online. That's what it is. It's the kind of humor of villain laughs in a movie. Do you see what I'm saying? And they think they're villains, but they're not. They're just kids who are chronically online and sat. So there's testimony from Lance Swiggs.
Starting point is 00:26:54 You think a villain would say stuff like that? And roommate. Would laugh at the dark things like that. Yeah. It's like a villain like the jigs. Joker. Yeah. They think they're the Joker. Yes. Yes. That kind of humor. But like more
Starting point is 00:27:09 more finboy. Right, but it's not in one box. But I'm not even getting into that part. I'm not even referencing that part. I'm just referencing the total lack of actual humor is connected to joy. Humor is connective. It brings people together. It's better to laugh
Starting point is 00:27:25 with than to laugh at. And all they know of humor is laugh at and isolation. Because they've been laughed at. And it's a mean humor. obviously murdering somebody's mean, but I'm saying it's not limited to that. Like, I see it in our culture sometimes. I'll see these kids, and I know they know it. I've been around them when they do this.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Like, what you just said and how you just laughed was an insecure laugh because you know what you said wasn't funny. But if you do it with enough venom, then everybody else is put off guard. And now it's like you're not insecure. You're the aggressor. But all you are in the end is a giant, I don't even know what we're beeping out on this podcast anymore. But if I'm being real, I'm going to be real and then you can beep it out if you want. You're a giant pussy. That's what you are. In every measurable context of humanity and the definition of masculinity, this is what you are. Okay. And if I have to say it blunt to you and put it
Starting point is 00:28:22 in your face and I feel like I'm speaking to a generation that is indulging this stuff a little too much, this is what I've been getting at, Patrick, on all this stuff. And I'm not synthesizing it correctly just yet. Okay? But, and again, I'm not penning with a wholeheartedly broad brush. Okay. But this type of thinking,
Starting point is 00:28:40 conspiratorial, video gaming, thin boy, isolation, dark humor, it's a mask. You've put a mask on. Because underneath the mask, you're an insecure pussy.
Starting point is 00:28:53 That's the truth. And the way to get right isn't to try to convince the world that everyone should wear a mask or something like that. If you, you know, it's like this aggressive nature with your insecurity that continues to push the world away. It's to actually learn the definition of masculinity and to be it.
Starting point is 00:29:14 And it's hard and it's not fun. And maybe people laugh at you. A real man, I'm not selling you a fun existence. I'm just selling you a masculine existence. It's taking responsibility without credit. That's going to happen all the time as a man. It's going to go underappreciated all the time as a man. But why do you do it?
Starting point is 00:29:39 Because you're a man. That's the answer. And this generation and blame and so forth, it's like escaping any of that, which are requirements to being a man. By the way, and it started before this. School shooting. Being a man is not defined by how much money you have. Okay?
Starting point is 00:29:57 That's the truth. Okay. being a man is not defined even by your muscles. Okay, how about that? It's not defined by any of that stuff. Do I think you should strive to succeed and become wealthy because it is the manifestation of the top of whatever it is you're trying to achieve? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:13 And should I think you fight for every dollar in this world that you can make? Not that you deserve or not that you're entitled to, but that you can make? Yeah, absolutely. Should you optimize your body and feel healthy? Yeah, absolutely. But these things do not make a man. I can find you easily, buffed rich dudes that are pussies all the time. How do you not know this instinctively?
Starting point is 00:30:38 Like, look at 2020. Look who folded. People of every stripe. Look before 2020. I lived this. I lived in the world of sports. What looks more like a man than a dude that plays linebacker in the NFL? And yet when the world comes calling you a racist for stating the obvious, what do you do?
Starting point is 00:30:56 You fold. You fold. You see, those things don't make a man. And I mean, the ask of, I even read the column that you send me, Patrick, and I don't want to talk about it. And because the problem is about men and political allegiances and what the problem is there are real grievances in this world. There are conspiracies in this world. There are all those things. but they can't become the view, the lens through which you view the world. Otherwise, you surrender your masculinity.
Starting point is 00:31:33 You know, a scene that I really like an image? You remember John Snow and Game of Thrones and the freaking army of what, I think it's Ramsey's Army is coming at him. And he's freaking all alone and he draws his sword because he's going to take on the entirety of the other army. He's going to lose. It's rigged. Game's not fair. He's done. He's going to die. He's a man. He's a man. By the way, don't translate that into just being a troll on the internet. I don't care how many people don't like me. I'll stand here and troll. Not that. That's not what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:32:11 It's on principle on what is right and what you'll find. I don't know. I'm ranting. I know. Anyway. But these people feel like they're being manly, but in their little online worlds, too. They feel like they're being out way. But they don't even believe it, Dan. I know. That's the thing. They don't believe it. But they have to pretend so hard and do things in the real world.
Starting point is 00:32:30 It's all pretend. Yeah. So they go out and do things in the real world, like these horrible acts, and that's what they think they're doing. But they're not. Yeah, because you can't live in a contradiction. A human being cannot live with that level of contradiction. You can't know you are that big of insecure, you know, spineless and pretend. that you're a man, you can't. You can't do that. That's a contradiction that's unsustainable.
Starting point is 00:33:00 And how will that manifest? In something awful, usually, something awful. So the list, and so this actually, I think, at least in my mind, all ties together in some way, because the evidence is overwhelming. And there have been many attorneys on Fox, and we have some great ones. I mean that. Like, this isn't like teammate compliment. Like Josh Ritter out in L.A., Donna Ritone in New York. These are really good analysts, really good. And they're asking a lot of questions, like, why are they putting on so much evidence?
Starting point is 00:33:36 We're well beyond the standard of probable cause. And you know the truth? We can choose whether or not to say names. Obviously, there's one. They're doing it because of the conspiracies. That's what they're doing. That's the truth. Now, should they or shouldn't they?
Starting point is 00:33:56 That's a legitimate question. But it seems pretty clear to me. I'm guessing. I have no inside knowledge. Erica Kirk wants this. And she wants more than they're even doing. She's objected. Her team is objected to the redactions the judge has made.
Starting point is 00:34:09 She's like, no more. She wants it all out there. All. Because these toxic, demonic, demonic theories and characters that are capitalizing on the death of Charlie Kirk have to be put away. Have to be. And look, Tyler Robinson isn't convicted yet. They haven't proven their case beyond a reasonable doubt,
Starting point is 00:34:38 and we haven't yet to hear from the defense on their rebuttal. And that's all fair. But people are pointing out, the theories that have been afforded on the Internet and on podcasts, do you realize zero of them? Zero have been used by the defense? Now, why would that be? Why would that be?
Starting point is 00:35:00 If there's anything to any number of the theories, and the theories are so convoluted and so stretched out there. And they adapt the theories. Well, you know how it's going to adapt? I know the answer to this. Because, by the way, a defense attorney's job is to get his client off. That's it. And listen to Retuno or Ritter or any other number of criminal defense attorneys.
Starting point is 00:35:22 There's all kinds of taxes. And this defense team is doing a bunch of them, like delay, distract, pull. In the end, if that's your job, you'll pull any theory out there. Maybe they will when it comes to trial and there's a jury there and you've got to plan a seat of reasonable doubt. But odds are they're not going to. They're showing no hint of any of these theories. Okay?
Starting point is 00:35:43 None. So the answer to that on the conspiracy side will be, well, those lawyers are part of the conspiracy. Yes. You know? Everybody is. It's already happening. At some point. Right.
Starting point is 00:35:53 Right. I'm sure. I'm sure. I'm sure of it. Cash Patel was involved. Well, we still don't know he wasn't. Meanwhile, meanwhile, I can't remember who put this together. Lance Twig said Tyler Robinson did it.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Tyler Robinson's parents said he did it. The prosecutors say Tyler Robinson did it, and Tyler Robinson said he did it. He did it in text messages. He did it, which we learned yesterday, by the way, in a note. Did you guys see the image of the note that came out? No. It wasn't supposed to. Have you heard about the note that in the text messages, Tyler Robinson tells Lance Twigs to look under the keyboard for a note that he left?
Starting point is 00:36:32 And no one at that point knew what really happened to the note. It hadn't been released. But they definitely have it, I guess. I think I have this correct. Tyler Robinson had the note on the defense table in front of him yesterday, and somebody got an image of it. And so I can't authenticate that. I can't say that with 100% certainty. But the point is on multiple places and multiple occasions, Tyler Robinson said he did it.
Starting point is 00:36:53 And yet the conspiracy world is like, no, you didn't. His lover, his roommate, his parents, the prosecutors, himself. And the conspiracy is, no, you didn't. There's been no bigger loser, although there is no such thing as a loss to the people we're talking about. And there are multiple. There's no such thing as a loss because in the end, they're not trying to be right. they're just trying to get your attention. You are the product.
Starting point is 00:37:29 And so, you know, I want to say, if you believe in right and wrong, you believe in fact and fiction, you believe in evidence, then yesterday was a really bad day for conspiracy theorist. Really bad day. But truth is probably not, because that just leads to a few more episodes. I've already seen it. Few more episodes. Yeah. I mean, people are already saying, like, well, you can fake those things. he could be going down for somebody else.
Starting point is 00:37:54 His family could be paid off. Like all these crazy, it's insane. Never accept it. Let's take a quick break, but we'll be right back on this Friday edition of Will Kane Country. Before the next track starts, have you ever wondered,

Starting point is 00:38:43 You see what I'm saying? Well, it's simultaneously disconnected. So on one hand, the Israelis, because they're always at the back end of all of these conspiracies, The Israelis are confident enough to pull off killing multiple leaders of Hezbollah with pagers simultaneously across the country, but they can't do away with video evidence and a rifle of Tyler Robinson's. Or he's the Patsy. Yeah. His prince. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Okay. How about this? They're so competent that they can pull off stuff like that. Think about – and this is the nature of conspiracy. They pull off other stuff. But they're not competent enough to not be discovered by a single podcaster with her sources. Right. Like that person found out.
Starting point is 00:39:37 They knew from the beginning. Wild. It's, it's grotesque, man. It's grotesque. Pay attention to the trial, preliminary hearing in this case. There's more going on today. But the evidence against Tyler Robinson. is absolutely gigantic.
Starting point is 00:40:02 All right. The New York Post has a story about this is the final topic I want to do, unless you want to do Zika Vichie to Patrick, but I think this is a good one to take us home. Because I think there's a discussion here. Yelp. Various, is it mostly, or all California politicians, Yelp reviews, has somehow been leaked?
Starting point is 00:40:23 Anonymous Yelp reviews? How they behaved on Yelp? help? Yes. Yeah, I don't either. So it's Javier Bacera, it's Steve Hilton, it's Spencer Pratt, and it's Katie Porter. And I think this is really fascinating. When I first wanted, when I saw the headline I read this story, I'm like, oh my, because it's about Katie Porter. Yeah, she left several long negative reviews.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And I wanted to hate her. Yeah. I really did. I'm like, this is going to be great. I want to hate her. And Patrick, you put this in our group chat as well. I actually don't. I have a complicated, like, she sounds like in these Yelp reviews, she doesn't sound crazy.
Starting point is 00:41:14 She sounds like she had. The only crazy thing to me in this is actually leaving a Yelp review. Like, I can't believe people have the energy to go do that. Do you leave Yelp reviews? Dan, have you ever left a Yelp review? Not even once have I thought about it. Not once. Patrick? Not, I don't really use Yelp, but I've left occasional reviews for things.
Starting point is 00:41:39 Never once. I mean, it has to be egregious. And occasionally I'll leave a review, like a, you know, if something is very positive, too, just because I know that the negative always outpaces the positive. Everyone has a different experience everywhere. Scott, have you, Scott, you can just give me a nod. Do you leave Yelp reviews? Nope.
Starting point is 00:41:59 Here's another question. Do you guys send meals back? Have you ever... Not even thought about it. It has to be, like, extremely egregious, but like, usually I'll just tough it out. Yeah. Same. I avoid competition.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Why do we do that? So there's a lot of people, and I guarantee a lot of people listening right now, do. And I'm not telling them they're wrong. That's not the thing. The person that leaves the Yelp review, I don't think you're wrong, but I don't have that. I'm not, that's not me. And I can't send a meal back. And I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:42:32 I don't think the person that does is wrong. This is not cooked to my liking. I'm paying for this. I expect to have it. That's a rational thought. I feel incredibly rude when I do that. And I think I'm wrong because when I sit down at a meal, when I sit down at a steak,
Starting point is 00:42:47 it's just, they're going to throw it out. You want that steak just thrown out? I totally agree, Patrick. I tough it out. I tough it out. It's like, I feel like I'm, a guest at their house and that's incorrect. Like how would I dare do that? I'm paying for it. So I'm not a guest at their house. But that is, I'm just telling you that's my emotional centering, not consciously,
Starting point is 00:43:08 just subconsciously when I sit down at a restaurant. And I can't imagine sending it back in that same way. Leaving a Yelp review is in that same vein. But I don't think I'm right. Like you have to be heard so much. Like I'm telling you how I behave, but I'm not, getting on to people that do it, though. Because I do think it can help them. Yelp is different because Yelp is public. You're not trying to help them. You're trying to shame them.
Starting point is 00:43:37 Yes. Or help other customers. Sure. But if you asked for the manager at the end of the meal and say, hey, listen, you know, I think this, I just want to give you some feedback, this, this, this, or this, or this. You know, but I wouldn't want to throw the waiter or waitress or the cook under the bus, either. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:43:52 I'd just be like, I've never done this, but I think that would be a better way to do it. Same thing with a positive comment. Although everybody wants positive to be public. Yeah. And I've done that before where like, like I got into it with Zaxby's privately because they screwed me over on a deal. But like, and then they corrected the situation. But like the last thing before that, I didn't even ask for anything from them.
Starting point is 00:44:18 I just said, hey, you guys messed up, fix it. So that next time I come back, it's not an issue. And it wasn't an issue. I've eaten full meals. that were wrong that I got and not said a word and just accepted it. Oh, I won't do that. If they bring the wrong meal, I'd be like, hey, this is not what I ordered. No.
Starting point is 00:44:37 I would do that. I fully just accepted it, like a delivery or something. If I accepted it, Dan, it's because of time. I'd look around the rest of the table and I'd be like, okay, I can eat this. This is fine because I don't want the rest of the table to wait while my meal, you know. I don't mean I'm saying they would have to wait to start eating, but it just, we all have to be on the same clock here together, right? Isn't it a bummer if one person sends their meal back and everybody else's table goes ahead and eats? And then you got to wait because this person's meal comes out 15, 20 minutes after everybody's.
Starting point is 00:45:10 And now we've got to sit here while you eat your meal. It's like we're supposed to be all, this is supposed to be a rhythm. You're not supposed to eat too fast either. So you're not just sitting there while everyone else is still eating. It makes people uncomfortable. Dude, I eat so slowly. That's dinner. That's dinner. It is.
Starting point is 00:45:22 If you look at etiquette. Oh, I eat. really fast. My whole family speeds through and then I'm just stuck there for like 30 minutes. Well, this is at a restaurant. Not at home. Still. Yes,
Starting point is 00:45:31 both. But if you're... I have a son like you, Patrick. Literally, we will all be done for 30 minutes and he's still going. That's crazy. What is going on? I'm not even eating more or anything. I'm just like literally just...
Starting point is 00:45:44 I used to choke a lot when I was a kid. And so like, I'm like just make sure I chew 30 times. Get it down. That's how he does. He chooses it too long. It's done. You've masticated that. Stomach it.
Starting point is 00:46:02 All right, read me one of Katie Porter's Yelp reviews real quick. Okay. So this is probably the one that I think that she was in the wrong. So she complained to a pizza place called Tony Pepperoni Pizzeria. Sorry. Horrible service on delivery. I ordered at 439. I am told 35 to 40 minutes.
Starting point is 00:46:29 I called a check at 40 minutes. Like, come on. Like, they're not even late by then, you know? It's like, whatever. I call again at 531. Driver's on the way. 52 minutes later. He says driver will call me.
Starting point is 00:46:43 He doesn't. I have 20 angry, hungry kids. Pizza was decent when it arrived, but allow ample, ample time. I'm like, they were off by... That's not terrible. Ten minutes. Fifteen minutes?
Starting point is 00:46:55 No, that's the worst one. That's not someone. That's never worked in a restaurant. They don't get it. Yeah. Well, she did a similar one to a yellow cab, and I thought her complaint was legit on the yellow cab. And that one is legit.
Starting point is 00:47:06 So she said, I had a horrible experience with this company. I called the night before to book a cab with them for 6 a.m. At 603, no cab. So I called the check five minutes away. Called again at 611. Put on hold and disconnected. 615, told the original driver that never responded
Starting point is 00:47:23 I never responded to the call and did they like to try someone else? That would be five minutes. 628, reinstalled three kids car seats, loaded luggage in my car and drove frantically to SNA. What is that, SNA? Is that an airport? Airport. An airport. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:39 I was parked and trying to lug my three preschoolers and our stuff through parking lot for 715 flight when at 635, driver says he's a few blocks at my house from my house. Ludicrous. I would have missed my fault. flight for it, but for it not being delayed. I will never use this company again. Now that is something that is time sensitive, right? Food, it's hard to judge, but a cab should be there. Like, if it's six o'clock, you should be there at 555, I would think. Yeah, especially when you booked it the day before. Yeah, exactly. For that reason. Yeah, that's legit. Yeah. That's legit. I wanted it to be worse, but Katie Porter's just a mild care.
Starting point is 00:48:23 A mild Karen. Her only sin is actually, if you think it's a sin to go to Yelp in the first place. Yeah, that's the exact point. To do it in the first place, it makes you pretty unbearable. How are people supposed to gauge these things? Like, when you go, if you've never even somewhere before. Stars. You don't need to say words. Just start. But I go, but I go, I look at the top and I look at the bottom. I don't read words. You really have to. It's like... You read reviews before you go to a place, like actually read them online. If I've never been there before, yeah. I have.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Really? Not a restaurant. Because I don't trust other people. I feel like like Airbnb type things. Airbnb or movies. Yep. I'll read what people say about that stuff.
Starting point is 00:49:10 I just don't trust other people's opinions because we're all biased in some way. And some people just want revenge. Some people were treated. There's a whole myriad of reasons why I don't read them. Well, like, so recently, not recently, But last time I got a hotel, so this is probably over a year ago, in Orlando, I looked at all the one and two stars because my wife gets freaked out about bed bugs because we had a bed bug situation years ago. Legit. And so you look at one or two stars.
Starting point is 00:49:36 I'm looking at all these things. It's like everyone's talking about bed bugs and these kind of bugs. We could have one time. You finally find one that, but it happened a lot to a lot of people across the board. So like you have to kind of see those. These people actually are helping you so that you don't get into. bad situations. I spent, I spent, did I spend 10 years in my life? Nine years, right, in a hotel at least two nights a week, both at ESPN and at Fox. A lot of times. And I'm pretty sure,
Starting point is 00:50:10 I mean, you would know, I got through that without bedbugs ever. That's impossible. I don't know how you did it. I know, dude. I know. It was in my head, too. I would check. Not every time. I went through during that 10-year period, there was a phase where somehow they got into my head, and I would check. And I looked up online how you check in. I'm not talking about online. When you check in. I'd look. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:50:37 You look at the mattress, and you have to lift the sheets and look at the mattress, and they're in the crevices of the mattress on the underside and that kind of thing. And I consider it like I walked. I was like Catherine Zita Jones in that movie where she robs the museum, and she's like going through. the lasers, you know, like this? Do you know what I'm talking about? She's doing acrobatics through the lasers or like an anime or John Wick scene where he's running through a room and there's bullets flying everywhere. He's just like, or Matrix, the Matrix, and he's just dodging bullets like this.
Starting point is 00:51:08 That's how I feel about my 10 years in a hotel every week, having not ever gotten bedbugs. You're the lucky or math is on your side. Well, did you say the same places mostly? That's a good question. When you say same places, not the same room, but yeah, the same hotel. Yeah, but same hotel. So that does help. Maybe it's like a certain hotel.
Starting point is 00:51:29 But it's still, still, even the best hotels, the cleanest. Because that one would be booked. There were times, oh, dude, there were times in Connecticut. Because I'm a notorious, like, last minute booker. Oh, Dan, I would, honestly, my go-to. My go-to, and it wasn't, it was technically Southington and not Bristol where I stayed, but it was a homewood suites. And it was a brand-new home-wood sweets.
Starting point is 00:51:49 So that's a good thing, right, if they just built it. And, but if they were. all booked up. Oh, man, I felt like Robinson Crusoe. I was like, oh, my God. My island is full. My island is full. I have to cast back out into the seas and see what other islands are out there. And I would end up at a Hampton Suites in a town I'd never heard of in Connecticut that's 20 minutes away from Bristol. And it was always so disappointing. I'd walk in. I'd be like, man, this, this lane of hotels I'm in, this is, I'm going to get bedbugs for sure. It's because you found a home before already. And now you had to go somewhere else.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Yeah. Well, reviews, you know. What are the names of those towns? Norwalk. Norwalk's horrible. Norwalk and... I can give you a breakdown of every town in Connecticut. Okay.
