Young Establishment James. We have a little conversation to be had this morning. We have a little bit of an accountability bowl and we have a little bit of time to revisit the knockdown, dragout, debates. So let's get to that with no further ado.

Story number one. The last couple of days here on the Will Cain Show, we have managed to, I think, in some respects, hit our stride, capture a bit of the spirit that I want to have not as our brand and not on a day-to-day basis, but it's certainly something that we would like to do that I think is somewhat still unique in the media landscape. A few weeks ago, we had someone on the show trying to recollect who exactly said this phrase. I believe it was comedian Andrew Schultz, who said so much of media has turned into dunks and reacts. And I agree. And I find that that's the way the internet works. We get slam dunks on opposition's head,

and we get reacts to insanity. And all that's fine and good, and I'm not here to tell you there's no place for that. But it's like eating lucky charms all day. I mean, at some point, you're not getting any nutrition. And I still think there's something more to be had when it comes to conversation. Not even what I would really reframe as debate, although I do enjoy debate. And it should serve as a warning, I think, for any elected official or politician to maybe go back and watch five years worth a tape on ESPN's first tape.

If you come into the Will Kane show, you might be in a place. where you end up in a debate. And I might offer a debate over the quality of James Winston as a starter for the New York Giants is more difficult than inconsistencies of someone who calls for the resignation of the Secretary of Defense in one instance and is silent when the Secretary of Defense goes AWOL or leave 13 dead servicemen in another instance.

I give you a little bit of my conversation yesterday with Congressman Jason Crow. Congressman, in fact, I do have some of your words right here. So this is who you told, what you told CPR News, which is a Colorado news agency. Back in 2023, you said, I do think the withdrawal from Afghanistan was messy. It was chaotic. There were a lot of mistakes that were made, and I haven't pulled punches on that. And then you go on to say, in that same interview, but there are lessons learned,

and I take a holistic look and not look at it through a small frame. So you admit that it was a mistake. You know that it was connected. I agree, by the way, it is apples and oranges, because in this situation, 13 Marines actually died. So I agree, they're not apples-to-apples comparisons. But on this particular mistake, you didn't demand anyone's resignation. And so I don't find it principled that now you do when nothing happened other than a

successful military operation was executed. It seems to me, congressman, that what you're doing is playing politics, not principles. That's a little bit of the back and forth. It was more than a five-minute debate. I'd probably say it was seven to eight minutes. we gave it a lot of time, and he got to say his piece. He laid out to me how he thought it compromised the security of America's pilots who were leading a bombing effort over Yemen that Secretary Hegseth had a real-time update

an hour before this operation began to take place. I just found it rich that they're all standing on their high horse banging their drum in this instance, and we have the record. There's no account of Congressman Crow or really any other Democrat calling for the resignation of Lloyd Austin when he literally went AWOL. Congressman Crow did use his military service as a bona fide in his debate with me. And I respect that. He served. I did not.

But it doesn't inoculate him against criticism. And I think if he left his service weapon on the desert floor of Afghanistan, he might have been court-martial. to at the very least, disciplined. So he has nothing when we leave $82 billion worth of military equipment in the sands of Afghanistan. He's concerned about classified documents here when it comes to Secretary Heggsett, voiced no concern when General Mark Milley testifies that he would call the leader of China to warn them of an impending attack coming from the United States of America. And he has nothing to say, of course, as we talked about there, about the mistake

in Afghanistan that led to 13 dead servicemen, 11 Marines among those 13. So that was the debate yesterday. One of the things I find fascinating fellas is alternate realities. So I'm not here

to raise a championship belt above my head. I'm not here to take a victory lap around the ring. I'm truly not. I'll leave it to the viewer to decide who won or who lost. But I do see a lot of the comments, and I have seen the judge's scorecards. I just think it's a little interesting that you can create an alternate universe and it should warn us all my show has gotten into the crosshairs

of the lefty clippers they clip our show i don't even know how to pronounce some of their handles but they do it there was one called vote for vets uh and they take like 30 seconds to a minute out of this debate and they dunk they react and they go congressman crow embarrasses will Kane. And you could walk away from that if you're on the left, if that's your only information bubble going, wow, this Will Kane guy really gets schooled on his program. And I just think it's like seeing an Instagram clip of a game where Luca, this hurts me to even use this analogy, but I'm going to do it. Luca has some amazing behind the back pass to LeBron for an open three, but the Lakers got beat by 30.

Pretty realistic. Okay. Awesome. Awesome. But the Lakers lost. by 30. I just think you could walk away in much of the left and probably the Brooklyn brunch coup can live in an alternate reality where it's just like, huh, you saw 30 seconds of something that went on for eight minutes. And you have the exact opposite view of reality. Go ahead, two days. But even if they watch the full debate, they're still coming out of it thinking you lost they won. Because they're coming into it. Because they're coming into it anyways with a biased opinion of whatever is said. Their opinion is correct anyways. So they'll agree with whatever side they like. Go ahead, James.

And it's also, I mean, it's hard, too, because it's just the way the game is played and the rules are written. Like, I know folks that, like, that do these sorts of, like, reclips and stuff, and they'll watch a nine-minute thing. They'll be like, oh, I watched that whole thing. That was awesome. But my boss, you know, it's got to be 50 seconds. Otherwise, it's just not going to be seen anywhere. So somebody asked me the other day, do you get mad in these debates? I think I addressed this yesterday and I don't I don't get mad in these debates um I can get hot but that's not the same thing as being personally angry listen to me it didn't bother me I'm saying listen to me it did definitely did not bother me that he invoked his military service yeah what bothers me is not also

someone that listens to that entire thing with a preconceived or confirmed bias going in and comes out with that same position and thinks oh will lost doesn't bother me I guess what I really realizes what bothers me is just blatant dishonesty. What I mean by that is manipulation. So these clip farm factories that paint an opposite reality of what happened. If, James, you selected 30 seconds that represented the rest of that conversation, I would feel differently. If I got my ass handed to me for seven minutes and you found the perfect 30 seconds of that

highlight, that would be different. If Lucas behind the back pass to LeBron for an open three represented the Lakers winning by 30, I wouldn't feel manipulated. But if it's in the opposite, then I feel like you're living in Alice in Wonderland. And that's why, for example, I never respond to people

that I think are worthless, like Keith Oberman and others. I don't. And I'm not trying to be personally insulting. I just am telling you the objective truth that I believe he's worthless. So I'm not going to respond to him. It's not worthy.

But it particularly pisses me off when a beta-Obama bro, Tommy Viter, uses that manipulation and falsehood. And so, yeah, I all of a sudden will fire back in that instance because your army of cucks and betas listening to Pod Save America all of a sudden has to live in an alternate reality. And I don't know. I mean, you know, at one point, I even think I had Tommy Viter booked.

I honestly, I don't, maybe not. because I'm also not being personally insulting when I say this. I know. I can't tell them apart. The Obama boys, I don't know who's who. They are all one amorphous dudes sitting on a couch Indian style to me. Like, you're all the same guy. So, I mean, I see you at the coffee house, Obama boys, I guess.

Order me a latte. Or bachelo, please. I'll see you later. They're all the same. They're the same to me. And so I don't know which ones have been booked before, but I would have entertained the debate, but if this is who you are, and I actually have never listened to Pod Save America, so I don't actually know who they are, but I know who their public image is, and I know their clips.

So maybe I'm doing the same thing, you know, but I just, I don't know, there's, maybe you're right, James, there's no above it. But we can, I can, I can, I can create a different environment. based on the ratings the last two days there's actually an audience that wants not lucky charms all day there really is there is an audience for stake

there is an audience who doesn't only want sweetened cereal and so the day before we also had Congressman Jim Himes on Democrat to have a very similar debate I'm not going to argue that no mistake was made

and I'm not going to argue that signals that perfectly appropriate app to have this conversation. What I am going to argue with you is that you are hyperbolicly taking this over the top. Yes, absolutely for partisan points in order to score in the first time in two months. Don't do it on signal. I agree. Don't do it on signal. But nobody's life. You know what? Here's the thing. You are the one who is making this into a partisan issue. And we are talking about the lives of our young men and women. And it makes me want to throw up to hear you turn this into a partisan issue when we are talking about.

the lives of our airmen and Marines and sailors. You just need to stop this. You cannot run a segment cheering Medal of Honor winners, many of whom win posthumously and told me that this mistake is about partisan advantage. It is. And I can run that segment, and I'm doing it with you right now, and I'll tell you something else. This isn't an administration that watched as 13 Marines died or spilled secrets to the Chinese

Communist Party, or did any of the other things that we just watched? It's hard to take you seriously, or that Jeffrey Goldberg is the hero in this story. Wow Fired up He was hot He was hot You got him though I was a little hot on

You You got him there It's funny Look when we could see you start to smile In the middle of those Because it's like You know he's just walked right into Something you want him to

Yeah He's walked into your frame Yeah I gotta give him credit I want to throw up lines pretty good Makes me want to throw up I gotta say It's pretty evocative

He seemed to have more testosterone thrown than most Democrats. I want to throw up. That's what kind of came off. You know, and Step Brothers? Even though I'm breaking...

Yeah. God, Step Brothers holds up. It just holds up. Yep. Love Step Brothers. Of all the Will Ferrell movies, I think it might be holds up the most.

Yeah. More than Talladega Nights. It's, it retains, yeah, step brothers. I mean this. not saying this for false high road falsely taking the high road they're welcome on the will cane show i hope they continue to accept invitations they just might be prepared for first take when it happens

on the will cane show all right quickly i want to get to this uh you guys put up a meme good job your most viral thing you've ever done on the will cane show account uh so bravo proud of you boys you copied it you plagiarized it from another meme but that's all right that's how memes work yesterday we talked about where you'd want to sit

on a plane with various military leaders and presidents dead and alive you guys created one with Fox News personalities and you you put up who would you sit with on a 10 hour flight there's 10 rows

that you get to pick from and I'll describe it for those listening on radio, Spotify, or Apple. You can sit in row number one where you have a window seat next to Brett Baer and on the aisle is Carly Shimkus. You can sit in row two in a middle seat between Will Kane and Peter Ducey. You can sit in row three on a window seat next to Laura Ingram and on the aisle would be Brian Kilmead.

You can sit on the aisle with Kaylee McAnney on the window and Jimmy Fala in the middle seat, and then you can sit in row five between Kennedy and Martha McCallum. Or go to the other side of the plane, and you can sit at the window next to Tommy Lerrin. I think there's going to be a lot of takers on that option. Sit next to Tommy Laren on the aisle would be Sean Handy. You could sit in row seven between Kat, Timp and Dana Perino. You can sit in row eight on the aisle next to Jesse Waters. On the other side of Jesse is Jessica Tarlov.

And then you can sit in row nine at the window next to Bill Himmer. who is sitting next to Shannon Bream or you can sit in row 10 between Greg Gutfeld and Guy Benson. Your flight attendant on this 10-hour flight is Judge Janine Piro. You're drinking what? Who wants a cut to?

Yeah. No, you're not. You don't need any more. You've had enough. I'm watching you. I'd like whiskey and ginger. No, you're not drinking whiskey and ginger. It was a great.

drink like a man All right So good job You guys put this out Let's start with the problem first Two of days A little bit of an accountability bowl for you here And guys he was legit nervous about this

On the text chain Shut it shut it And today walked in I sensed real insecurity From two of days last night on the text chain Trace Gallagher jumped on the Twitter and goes You left someone out Will

Which I said Trace, I didn't build it. Dan Overlock did. Gosh. And you need to take it up with Dan Overlock. Thanks. I was waiting to hear from Lawrence, because how dare you leave Lawrence Jones off? Or Tyrus, these are two friends of the Will Cain Show.

I know. I mean, frequent guests, and Lawrence and Tyrus, and you've left them off. What happened here? So, I, you know, I work with, I was going with people I knew their personalities more. You know what I'm saying? you don't know Tyrus's personality this is what you're going to try to argue that was a that was a misstep I didn't think of Tyrus essentially

I don't know and you don't know Lawrence's personality I've never met Lawrence actually racist put it back up how many black guys are on the flight put it up how many black guys are on the flight let me see we're not doing this put the image up I know you're in charge we're not doing this two days put it up we're not doing this I'm going to count the black people

on the flight we're not doing this oh my gosh Gosh, two a days. We're not doing this. I don't see a single African American on the plane. What have you done? Wait until the Brooklyn brunch crew hears about your segregated plane. I may have, yep, I'm at a loss for words.

I was trying to do my best. Maybe waters. I was scared about, I was sad about leaving anyone out. I was going to do a part two. Like I said, when I sent you guys, I'm like, I'll do a part two. Oh, yeah, that'll go over well. Part two will be great. It'll go viral.

Everybody loves a sequel And it won't feel gratuitous at all Yeah, I'm not much For losing words, but yeah I did my best and I thought it was fun Yeah, poor Trace Trace noticed and by the way, Trace

was a great guy to sit next to and have a great great guy So I've never really met him I've never really met him Honestly, I've never hung out with Ducey If I'm being honest, you put me You put me, you know, someone will sit between me and Lawrence or me and Tyrus, or me and Trace, you want that row right there.

I promise you. But Doocy's a dude. That's a good... He's a fun hang. Yeah. Honestly, I think I've met Ducey in person once. Yeah. The rest of my interactions with Ducey you've seen on camera.

And in that one time I met Ducey, I realized he was seven foot six. No lie. Ducey is seven foot six. All right. So you guys can fill that out. Where would you sit on the airplane? It's up on the Will Kane Show Twitter feed. and you let two of days know how big of a mistake he made,

leaving all these huge Fox News personalities, especially the minorities off the plane. Is it a show over? Kirk Cameron, coming up on the Wilcane show. Hey, have you ever wondered what happened to the legendary Chuck Norris? I recently saw a video he made, and I was shocked. He's in his 80s and still kicking butt and working out and staying active. What's even more shocking is he's stronger, can work out longer,

and even has plenty of energy left over for his grandkids. And he did this by just making one change. He says he still feels like he's in his 50s. His wife even started doing this one thing, too, and she's never felt better. She says she feels 10 years younger, body looks leaner, energy all day. Chuck made a special video that explains everything. Make sure you watch it. Go to chuckdefense.com slash cane or by clicking on the link below this video.

I can believe how simple it is. And just a reminder, the legendary Chuck Norris is swapping 84 years old and yet has more energy than me who is still today in his 40s. He discovered he could create dramatic changes to his health simply by focusing on three things that sabotage our body as we age.

coming up on the will cane show streaming live at fox news.com on the fox news youtube channel and the fox news facebook page hit subscribe at apple spotify over on youtube or on facebook set a reminder Hey, and jump into the comments section. I just posted this on X, and I want your feedback as well on YouTube and Facebook. So if you go over to Twitter, this 10-hour flight with the Fox News personalities is up. It was built by Two of Days, Dan, and James Laverty. Don't let James out on this as well because he helped assist in this endeavor. And so I've just asked this question.

I'm just curious, and I've asked it of Lawrence and Tyrus, is this racist? Is this racist? There are no black people on this flight, and I would probably draft Lawrence or Tyrus first. This would be who I would sit with. And it's not on here, and I didn't build it, so I think we need to launch an investigation of the staff. And I'm going to start with Deputy Lawrence Jones and Deputy Tyrus to investigate. You try to do something good for your job and do a good thing. You know, in the nature of technological transparency, given the era that we live in,

I think we should go through the computers in the computer history to see exactly how it was built and what mouse put the certain things on? What are you suggesting? He's literally just playing. He's blaming me completely. Yeah, I'm blaming Dan. Well, I'm... That's not where I'm taking it, James. I know you were involved in this, James.

I said it to my boss beforehand. This is like the apprentice. I'm going to be curious, did you have those guys on the flight and kick them off? Because that's going to be a whole different level. Was there a version of this draft that included Lawrence or Tyrus? And they were kicked

off. So, this is why we need an investigation. In fact, Senator Banks is going to be on later. I'm going to ask Senator Banks if there's something that the Senate can do, some type of committee that we can look into this because we're about accountability here on the Wilcane show. Okay, we're about accountability and transparency and sunlight. So we're going to get to the bottom of this. But joining us now for a big announcement is Superstar. I don't know what other introduction he needs other than that. It's Kirk Cameron, live outside. What's up, Will?

What's up, Kurt? You've got, as I understand it, by the way, those big wigs over on the channel had you booked today for a big announcement. But the arrest of an MS-13 gangster ran them short on time. They lost my benefit. We're announcing something right here, right now with you, Kirk, on the Will Kane show. Well, thank you for having me on. It's great to meet you. great to be on your show. Thanks, James. Thanks, Dan, for having me on. And yes, we're announcing

something great. You know, with so many great things happening in Washington, D.C., so many things happening all over the country, sort of up there at these upper levels where we're getting this air cover and this border control, we finally got something that moms and dads and grandparents can lean into as well to build the character and faith of the nation through our children for the next generation. And that ultimately is where we need to advance. And this is a brand new TV show for kids called Iggy and Mr. Kirk. We're bringing back Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street the way that it should be

where we're engaging kids' imaginations for good, not for wokeness. Disney demonstrates for us what a bad strategy that is. And we're engaging puppets like Kermit the first. frog only we've got an adorable little iguana that's learning lessons alongside of the five-year-olds watching about truth and love and goodness and self-control finally yeah here we go give me a round applause boys james dan patrick iggy and mr kirk um all right so i have some questions kirk let's talk about this thing so first of all uh i want to know more about the format mr rogers for our generation i hear puppets i hear sesame street obviously i hear me

Mr. Rogers. So what we got, skits, we got a through line plot because I know this is also about you and your previous stuff that you've done on Freedom Island and bringing Iggy back. So tell me a little bit like, if we watch, what is it going to remind us of? Well, it's going to have serious Mr. Rogers vibes.

We've even got our own mailman, Mailman Dan, who every week delivers a storybook. And it's a great book for kids to read together with their parents or their grandparents. And then the whole episode revolves around the lesson in that brave book.

So we've got live action actors like me and Lee Allen Baker from Disney's Good Luck Charlie. She's a former Disney star. We've got puppets like Big Bird and Kermit, only we have Iggy the iguana and we even have a vulture named Culture who's always lying to Iggy and deceiving him. Culture is the bad guy.

But it also serves as a metaphor for our culture for kids and a reminder to Iggy is that culture is redeemable. We can turn him around. And there's other lovable puppets as well as beautiful animation. And there's a story reading time with lullabies and a blessing that comes straight from the Bible. May the Lord bless you and keep you, make his face shine upon you, and give you peace. Awesome. All right. I do want to dive more into the values of Iggy and Mr. Kirk. But first, I want to ask you a couple questions here, sort of like on the logistics and business end of it. So give me the target market.

Like who, who, who, who, who, what age kids are we talking about? Who's this, who's this geared towards? Four to eight years old. Four to eight years old. So if you've got little littles in your world like I do, I've got six children that are grown now, but now I have a granddaughter. And there's so many, so many parents out there who are just lamenting over what's coming to their children.

In fact, the more data that comes out, we're now concluding that, that over stimulating your kids with junk food TV shows poses just as much of a risk to parents as processed foods. The flashing lights, the jump cuts every two to three seconds, the non-diagetic sounds actually have negative brain impact on your kids after just nine minutes. And so our show is developmentally designed for cognitive health to nourish their hearts and minds with clear moral lessons and and give your kids a sense of virtue and faith oh i love that i buy a hundred percent what you're selling on the junk food analogy and the way that the the jump cuts the lights the sounds and what it does to your brain um so so back to the logistics for a minute in the

business so i've seen some interviews i've seen you talk this is going to be on youtube i believe but i've seen you say in an interview that you're interested in all the streaming services whoever is interested in iggy and mr kirk what's here i'm really genuinely curious about this kirk what what has been the reception like if you go into a meeting with say and i don't know which ones you've talked to but i'm just going to throw one out as just a hypothetical uh hulu i don't know but if you go talk to one of these guys like i'm just curious back to culture right um those are the gatekeepers of culture so i'm curious what the reception for this content is inside the culture and when i say culture Kurt, I don't mean the audience yet.

I mean the gatekeepers of culture. Yeah, the gatekeepers of culture. So, you know, everything is shifting now, and the gatekeepers are waking up. Some of them, Disney's still not wanting to wake up. They just had a disastrous weekend at the box office. And when you strip projects that people love of what's true, beautiful, and good, parents are not happy. But with projects like The Chosen and others, the gatekeepers are now wondering, have we missed the message here that the American people are sending out. And yes, they have. Now, everybody wants

the chosen. So with regard to Iggy and Mr. Kirk, I think they're waiting. They're waiting to see exactly what's going to happen. And so what I believe will happen is people are going to fall in love with Iggy, fall in love with the characters, and they're going to want the shows on all of these networks. Right now, you can see it on Brave Plus, which is a brand new streaming service. You just go to your smart TV and download the app. at Brave Plus, and you can watch the first few episodes for free, and then you can sign up for all the seasons. And once that happens, I believe word of mouth will get to the gatekeepers,

and they're going to say, hey, we're over here, don't forget about us. Our name's Hulu, our name's Netflix, our name's Amazon Prime. Right. On that note, over to the audience, and I love you invoking The Chosen. But it's not just The Chosen. Like, you have had personal experience in this in some of the books that you've written, your experience with Brave Books, stuff you've done. And I don't know. I mean, on one hand, if I ask you this question, I think you'll

be a little hesitant to give me numbers. And on the other hand, I don't know you, Kirk. We just met like you said, I trust you. Other people always want to put a part of spin. But give me the, like, I mean, just intuitively from an entrepreneurial mindset, I would think there's fresh entrepreneurial ground to plow that there is a thirsty audience for a certain type of content that I would think your life has validated, Kurt. And I don't. know, I'm not asking you if you're killing it. I'm not asking if you're rich, you know, in your second and third evolutions of your career, but have you found that to be true? And I'm not, I mean literally from a market perspective, because to your point of these guys,

whoever they are, Disney, Hulu, they're going to follow the market. So if you're finding markets of people who are, and I know you have with your books or as you point out with chosen, then they're going to follow. So how, how is it gone, finding the audience? Yeah, it's gone very, very well. So Brave Books is a scrappy group of people, led by an entrepreneur who used to be an eye doctor, created a book company, starts making pro-God, pro-American books, getting them out to families. They've got over 150,000 families reading these books. And, you know, parents are saying, wait a minute, we love the books, but we want to redeem screen time because our kids have iPads, right? And their brains are rotting from the stuff coming from Nickelodeon and Disney and other places. And so they're responding with, please get this stuff to us. And when I show up in libraries and schools and churches all around the country, the parents and the grandparents are just cheering. And the kids are dancing around in their living rooms as they watch the first episode of Iggy and Mr. Kirk. And they want

the little plushy Iggy so they can go to go to bed with him at night and sing the little lullaby that they are sung at the end of the show. So you're absolutely right. The market is declaring to the gatekeepers and the content producers that they want something better than the garbage that is leading their kids to be ADD. They're almost all on Ritalin. It's negatively impacting their relationships, their abilities to learn. And, you know, this is, I think, a whole awakening that's happening in America across all the different sectors. We're going to have an economic awakening.

I think we're having a political awakening. I believe we're going to have a spiritual and moral awakening. And I think Hollywood is going to recognize that if you really do care about the bottom line, you need to understand that there is a new generation who wants to get back to the blessings that come from the values that made this a great country in the first place. More of the Will Cain Show right after this. Fox News Audio presents Unsolved with James Patterson. Every crime tells the story, but some stories are left unfinished. Somebody knows.

Real cases, real people. Listen and follow now at foxtruecrime.com. It is time to take the quiz. It's five questions in less than five minutes. We ask people on the streets of New York City to play along. Let's see how you do. Take the quiz every day at the quiz.com. Then come back here to see how you did.

Thank you for taking the quiz. What I like about your answer is this is why I buy it. I ask you how well it's going, okay? This is what I think. If it's going, eh, this is how people answer. It's going good. And their voice goes up and they say, it's going good. Instead, you leaned into the camera, you went, it's going very, very good.

You gave me two varies and a certain tone that suggests to me it is truly going to be very, very good. I don't see all the bottom lines with the parent companies that's funding the show and all of that. But what I can tell you is that I do go to local public libraries. And when the library director, who's got purple hair and is part of, you know, the alphabet army tells me they're not interested. The people in our community don't want you here or hear your message. And then I show up and there's 3,000 parents and grandparents filling six floors of a downtown Indianapolis library out the door into the parking lot. That gives me a clue that we've struck a cord. right okay last thing with you i told you i wanted to come back to the value so again i saw you say

this and you said it here with me today you know it's it's garbage um so much of what we're we're provided but it's here's what i think you said this well you used to this word so i think we sort of categorize everything we're offered into one of two things good or bad right and garbage or something else but i was thinking about this and you used the word mindless so even if somebody's watching or listening and you're like well my kid watches both of my boys are older now so i don't even know what the the latest is what they watch their kids wonder pets like if i look back on wonder pets i don't remember what the lessons were but even if they weren't garbage they were mindless or they were tropes and cliches of like

be nice to everyone which is a fine thing to say right but but whatever it's simplistic and some of it has to be because you're talking about five-year-olds but but there's a difference between being not just bad and exceeding beyond mindlessness, right? Like, think of it as scale. You got bad, you got mindlessness. And then what you're talking about is true nutrition, positive values for the kids that they're going to get through watching your programs. What are those values?

Yeah, you're absolutely right. We don't want to just give our kids emptiness that occupies their time. And we certainly don't want the poison. What we want is we want to entertain children because, imagine, are important. This is the creatives of the future. We want their minds to, to ignite with creativity. And at the same time, we can instill virtue and character. And we can frame the world in such a way that they learn to value their mom and dad, their families, to love others, to be kind, compassionate, and to recognize that pride is not a virtue, humility is where

the blessings are at and then know where to go for truth you know if you ask um somebody where do you go for truth and someone tells you i'm going to cnn you know we got a problem right because everything's are so spun and bent and when kids want to know stuff about about gender or they want to know stuff about relationships they want to know something about god you go ask alexa or Siri they have no wisdom. Wisdom comes most often from a parent who is showing up, investing the time, and really prioritizing faith, hope, and love. And that's at the end of the day what I want my legacy to be about. I'm 55 years old. I've got a granddaughter. I'm not trying to escalate a career to win a Leonardo DiCaprio Academy Award. I'm really wanting to,

to come to the end and say, you know, he loved his family and he did what he thought was right and good. And I think parents want that everywhere. And so we're working together to make this the number one new kids TV show, Iggy and Mr. Kirk. Awesome, Kirk. Awesome answer to end on as well. I appreciate that legacy talk and that value of wisdom, especially in the age of AI, the value of human wisdom, or it's not even human wisdom. It's spiritual wisdom, which we hope to access as humans. But I love that, what you hope for your legacy, Kirk. And we'll make sure that encourage everybody to check out Iggy and Mr. Kirk. Thank you so much for making that announcement today here with us.

Well, thanks so much. Appreciate you. Your work's important, and you're doing a great job. Keep it up. Thank you so much. All right, there you goes. Kurt Cameron. Check it out. He told you where Brave Plus is the app. I think he also said it's going to be up on YouTube as well. I think it's worth your time. I get you and Mr. Kirk, don't just plug in. By the way, with kids, you know, like they don't have to be a part of the zeitgeist.

Like, you know, Dan and I can sit around and talk about White Lotus. Kids don't have to sit around and talk about wonder pets. So you can chart a new path. You know, you can pioneer trailblaze, a new path of values. Okay, let's take a quick break. When we come back, we'll ask Senator Jim Banks, whether or not my staff is racist. Next on the Will Cain Show.

This is Jimmy Phala, inviting you to join me for Fox Across America, where we'll discuss every single one of the Democrats' dumb ideas. Just kidding. It's only a three-hour show. Listen live at noon Eastern, or get the podcast at Fox Across America.com. I'm Janice Dean.

Join me every Sunday as I focus on stories of hope and people who are truly, rays of sunshine in their community and across the world. Listen and follow now at foxnewspodcast.com. Preliminary results on the investigation, special prosecutor Lawrence Jones has weighed in on the 10-hour flight put together, viral 10-hour flight of Fox News personalities put together by the staff here at the Will Kane Show. the question of the day of the moment really and it could be a question of the year it's burning up the nation is is it racist this is the will cane show streaming live at foxnews.com on the fox news youtube channel on the fox news facebook page uh on a scale of 1 to 10 how uncomfortable are you right now two a days like the most i think if it went to 12 that would be my answer my wife's like are you okay she's texting me are you okay She's like, is Will being hard on you?

Are you okay? Does she listen and watch live? She does sometimes because I mentioned this may come up and she wanted to be there for support for me. Did you know that the race angle would come up? No. Did it occur to you last night? No, no.

Because I didn't occur to me until live on the show as I was looking at the image. I just knew I would. It didn't occur to me that you had left out all the black people until I once again saw the image. And that's, twin. So I wondered when you started getting nervous. I just thought, because I don't see the world through race, Dan, like you. So I just, I just, I just thought, man, you left out some big

personalities. Like, you left out, I mean, Lawrence, come on. I know I did. And it's like, I'm sorry, Lawrence. It's, you're amazing. And it's like, wow, it's almost purposeful. And that's why we have to have this investigation. Like, I mean, it's like, wow. You know, I mean, the host of Fox and friends and a friend of mine? I mean, this is, this is why we need an investigation. I knew I would leave. And you said, and a minigo, James testified to this. He said just a miniggo, we are taught not to do this.

And I was like, who, what are we talking about here? HR? And he said, no, Democrats. I said, oh, you are we? You're a Democrat? You're a we? No. Was.

Was? I grew up, I grew up in Connecticut. That's okay. I appreciate that. I grew up in a very liberal area, and you're indoctrinated with all these things that you're supposed to be, right? And how did those teachings take? How did you arrive at this moment after all those teachings? Just a complete failure of the Democratic Party to...

That's where you have to go. This is some self-reflecting here, too, right? The Democrats have failed me, so that's some blaming it on the Democrats. Tenth was losing it over here. That's pretty smart. Tinfuel's muted, but I can see he's losing it. I'm blaming it on the Democrats There's nothing I can do about it You need a coughing fit

Can't handle it All right Well, we are waiting Senator Jim Banks to join us Any moment now But we do have some preliminary investigations From a couple of investigators

Jimmy Phala Has informed us on X He's my boy too Trump has just announced A special prosecutor So that's good I knew this would be something The White House would pay attention to

That two days We got to investigate very important and Lawrence has jumped in and Lawrence said nah it's he's saying it's not racist he says nah we only fly

fly private they know yes I texted Lawrence and he told me that so that's why you know uh huh did you text Lawrence no I've never met Lawrence you never met Lawrence Tyrus can't fly private by the way

what why can't Tyrus fly private are you racist too what's going on here here. He's a big guy. He can't be too much weight. Wow. Did that we're weight shaming? I've got a staff. Weight shaming? What is going on here? It's not a

weight weight. Oh, yeah, see how you like it now. He's a musly guy. He's got Yeah, see how you like it now. Yeah. And why would a musly big person not be able to fit on a private jet, Patrick? It would seem like that would be the perfect place. They have weight limits. What about the seats?

Never seen a G-5. To be unfair, I've never been on a private point I mean we have some real problems here behind the scenes real problems with the ADA and with the NAACP we have real problems that need to be investigated here I'm waiting for a text from a boss to go drop it now we'll let it go yeah please like you're safe I'm not come on I'll tell you what there's a good chance Lawrence is tuned in now that he knows this is going on I'm sorry just call my cell phone Lawrence here at Neil you know what i'm calling lawrence no i'm going to do it since we're waiting on the senator

i'm going to call lawrence and we're just going to get this done in real time and then we can put it behind it so any of my bosses some of which i know you listen to from time to time if you're listening i'm going to put it behind us in a moment but i think you have the same interest in me do we have a problem inside behind the scenes not on air of course of the will cane show let's just see um this is by the way odds already screens me okay i'm used to getting screen these days Okay. The senator has just sat. Where is Lawrence at 1245 on...

Oh, Lawrence. Just being mad at me is what he's doing. Maybe try Tyrus? It's trying to reach the secretary of defense. I'm going to get a strongly worded email from Lawrence being like, sir. How dare? If it needs to be said, if the comedy hasn't been clear, if it needs to be said, I'll do this for you, Dan.

I know. If it needs to be said, of course. horse. I know. He's not racist. I'm going to say it in case. You know, you never know with the audience sometimes. Some audience you know, sarcasm is often lost on people. So

I'm going to have to, I'm just going to say it for the record. Okay. He didn't leave Lawrence and Tyrus off because they're raised. He thought they weren't big enough stars. Yo, we are ending the show now. God, man. Poor Dan had nothing but good intentions.

Poor Dan had nothing but good intentions, and he's been crushed today. I appreciate him doing it. Please do it in the future. But I loved it, and Dan is an innocent party, 100%. Let me now bring in, if we might, Senator Jim Bank, Senator from Indiana, fixing his jacket, getting straight. You're coming in the wrong environment, Senator, if you think this is going to be all about being just straight-laced. Sorry, there we go. You just came back from a vote, Senator, right?

You had to run out. So I understand why you had to put your job. I race to get back. Good to be with you. Hey, Senator, is there a dress code when you make your way to the chamber for a quick vote? Like, do you have to throw the coat and tie on? What's the decorum on that? And I got busted a couple of the weeks ago.

I came straight from the airport. I had on khakis and a jacket with a tie, but I had my sneakers on. And they would not let me onto the floor of the United States Senate. And I thought, I look over my shoulder and I see Federman in a sweat in a hoodie. and I thought, how does this guy get away with it? And I can't wear my sneakers onto the floor coming straight from the airport. So kind of a lesson in Senate decorum, and I'm still trying to figure that one out. No, you've got to help me understand that.

And I'm not doing a partisan thing. I'm serious. So, okay, there's a dress code. You can't wear your sneakers onto the floor of the Senate. Okay, I get it. But then, I mean, Fetterman does wear – and by the way, I sort of like Fetterman and what he's doing and how he's blazing his own sort of independent path. So I'm not like taking a cheap shot.

I'm genuinely curious at the inconsistency. He's wearing tennis shoes, right, with that hoodie? So he can't wear the hoodie onto the Senate floor, but he can stand in the doorway and say yes or no. And they record his vote just by doing that. So he doesn't walk onto the floor. I tried to walk onto the floor with my sneakers was prevented from doing that. So I was able to do the same thing from the doorway,

cast my vote, and go find some dress shoes. to wear for the next time. So he stands outside and gives thumbs up, thumbs down. How fascinating. I don't know. That escaped my attention. I'm very interested in that. Okay.

I think I want to start, do I want to start on a positive note or a negative note? Let's start on a negative note. Let's start with NPR. Let's start with some of who went down in the house yesterday. So Catherine Marr, head of NPR, was there. and Congressman Brandon Gill was really cross-examining her on some of the stuff she said in the past. In fact, let's share a little bit of that with the audience of how it went between Gil and Marr. Do you believe that America is addicted to white supremacy?

I believe that I tweeted that, and as I've said earlier, I believe much of my thinking has evolved over the last half decade. It has evolved. Why did you tweet that? I don't recall the exact context, sir, so I wouldn't be able to. able to say. Okay. Do you believe that America believes in black plunder and white democracy? I don't believe that, sir. You tweeted that in reference to a book you were reading at the time, apparently, the case for reparations. I don't think I've ever read that book, sir. You tweeted about it. You said you took a day off to fully read the case for reparations. You put that on Twitter in January of 2020. I apologize. I don't recall that I did. Okay. I'd no doubt that.

your tweet there is correct, but I don't recall that. Okay. Do you believe? That's really, really fascinating exchange. I mean, you have a bill senator to defund NPR, I believe. But I don't know how she, wow, that's pretty brave, by the way. Just here's your words. Don't remember, didn't say it. Yeah, it just goes to show how unsurious these people are who run NPR. Over $100 million, the taxpayers have spent giving to a left-wing propaganda media outlet. It would be like, it would be like the taxpayers funding Breitbart on the right, except for Breitbart is accurate. And, you know, you can go there and actually read the news. With NPR, it is a left-wing propaganda outlet. And she proved it yesterday. I had my own

run-in with NPR back in the first Trump term. The CEO at the time was a guy named John Lansing. And he came to my office after a, well, earlier in my political life, I thought I could go on NPR and do interviews and maybe educate people and maybe get a fair shot to talk about the news of the day. And I did an interview. You might remember this. It was related to the Russian collusion hoax and the first impeachment hearings about the phone call call between President Trump and Zelensky. And I did an interview. And in the interview, I talked about how Adam Schiff lied about coordinating with the whistleblower.

In fact, at the time, there was a New York Times story of all places that confirmed that Adam Schiff was in touch and coordinating with the whistleblower. but Adam Schiff was telling people that he'd never met or talked to the whistleblower. And in an NPR interview in 2019, I said that Adam Schiff lied about it. The interview ended. It aired on NPR. And with NPR, these interviews, you know, different time zones. So they'll run every hour in different markets.

And NPR's listeners backlash against me so much for saying that Adam Schiff lied that NPR fact, they put up a story. They'd never done it before. they fact-checked me and said that I lied about Adam Schiff lying. Over time, it was proven that I was right, but it was my own case proving what we already know that NPR is a propaganda outlet that defends and supports the Democrat Party is anti-Republican. And all the while the taxpayers are funding it. And that's the shame of it. We finally have a president who gets it and wants to defund NPR, do something about it. I stand with him on that. That's why I've introduced this bill. I introduced it two or three times in the House. I'm brand new to the Senate. I've introduced

the Defund NPR Act and the Senate for the first time. I'm getting co-sponsors. To me, this is common sense. It's long past time to take taxpayer dollars away from a left-wing propaganda outlet. We're going to do everything that we can to make sure that that happens. So I'm just, I want to ask you a curiosity that I have. So if what you said is undoubtedly true with anyone with a modicum of common sense or who has ever at all paid attention to the reporting of NPR. It is not close. We're not talking about a 51-49 lean to the left. We're talking about a hard lean to the left. However, if you see a lot of these polling and, and by the way, even some left-wing groups are the ones that put these things

together on who's objective, who's far right, who's far left, you've probably seen all that stuff. NPR always scores well, right? And that's bled over. There is a segment of the American public that's like well in PR that's unbiased that's truth-telling organization right and i don't know i and i want my curiosity with you is why when something can be that far left but still ride under the cover of we are more of an objective truth-teller than say fox right um it's it's really interesting as to why and i'll forward you two theories one just legacy just a legacy brand over time that has been built on that and the other is tone um I always say this, and I know how it affects my career.

I truly do. I think it was Ronald Reagan's communication advisor that said it is 80% how you look, it's 15% how you sound, it's 5% what you actually say. He's not saying that's right or wrong. He's just saying that's how audiences consume a message. And that 15% of how you sound, maybe the tone of NPR just makes everybody go, oh, they're so calm and drolling, and therefore it's got to be true. True. So you're saying the tone is deceptive, which I guess. I don't know. Let me add another

theory. Senator, it's easier to listen to Keith Oldman and know you're dealing with a ranting lunatic than the host of NPR. Let me add another layer to that. If you, if you're a normal person, you don't sleep and breathe politics every day, you listen to NPR on the radio when you drive to work. Maybe you like some of the entertaining the quiz shows or, you know, some of the some of the entertain that maybe the the NPR like the the music or something um so you're right you're drawn to that and then you hear the NPR news and you think to yourself well the the government's paying for this so of course it has to be unbiased right a hundred million dollars of taxpayer dollars going to fund NPR of course me maybe maybe some people maybe that maybe

maybe it's just the fact that that that is paid for by taxpayer dollars that gives it an unfair reputation that doesn't hold up and then gollable people listen to it and think that that really is the news and not realizing that indeed it is propaganda. But let me let me add one more note to that. Last year, a senior editor at NPR, somewhat of a whistleblower, spoke the truth about what's going on there and said that at the NPR headquarters, there are 87 registered Democrats in editorial roles, zero Republicans. So that proves the point that we're making.

This is a, this is not, this is not a news outlet. They don't deserve our taxpayer dollars. In fact, it's un-American that we would allow our taxpayer dollars to fund an outlet, a propaganda outlet like that. That's what we have to. Totally agree. It's long past time to stop it. It's actually scandalous.

It's actually scandalous that we would, we would fund something like that. but yet still let's just deal with a little bit of reality like okay that could probably get through the house oh can that get through the senate well it's something like that 60 votes in the senate except for this the reconciliation bills the one big beautiful bill that's working its way through the house in the senate which triggers a rule in the in the senate that only requires 50 votes to pass something so it's a great place for us to pass cut spending cuts in the reconciliation bill for something like this and then on top of that there's something called rescission packages that omb that the white house can offer to the congress and

i hope that zeroing out npr funding will be a part of a rescission package if it's not a part of the reconciliation package so well there are ways to to make it happen to get it done without that's what center paul's been talking about right rescission yes is that he's exactly right about okay and you guys are going to put a rescission bill together so that's going to be it's not an either or or something that's going to be in addition to all the rest of the budgeting it has to be yeah but but the rules require that it comes from the white house it's not something that ran paul or jim banks can draw up in the senate and offer on the senate floor the rescission package has to come from oh and the o and b director russ vote uh to start that process or senator paul and a lot of us are

pushing on the White House to send that to us immediately. You might recall that right before the recess last week, we passed the the full year CR. I don't know if that's ever happened before, a full year CR. And it's not, it's not perfect. It's not ideal. There are lots of parts of that that many of us don't like, but it took, it took all of the negotiating room away from the Democrats. So we passed the full year CR, but that, that doesn't cut all of the programs that Elon and Doge and the Trump administration are finding all of these horrible, awful, woke pro-transgender ideologies at embassies around the world and studies and departments. Even though Elon and Doge are zeroing out those line items now, it doesn't permanently cut them

for the future. And that's why we need a recisions package. That's why we need to cut it in the reconciliation bill to make sure that these programs, like NPR are cut out completely and doesn't come back again the next time that there's a funding fight. All right. Let's do this. I said I also want to do some positive. So both Dr. Marty McCary and Dr. J. Batatari are ready to take their seats leading NIH and CDC, right? And this is a really remarkable moment. It's a remarkable moment that, you know, People at home often don't pay attention to, you know, cabinet appointments, much less department appointments and this type of thing because most of time it's keeping the trains running on time in America, or at least that's the way we think of it. There are actually revolutionary things that happen under the covers, but this is actually revolutionary and on its face revolutionary because these two guys were such outliers during a national panic, during a national pandemic panic.

And, you know, Bataria was part of the Great Barrington Declaration, I believe, and censored and so forth. McCarrie was a truth teller here on Fox and other places from Johns Hopkins. I don't know. I think it's not – I get excited about who the Cowboys are going to draft in the first round. It's rare I get excited about somebody who's going to be pointed to lead CDC. But I don't know. This is really exciting, Senator. Yeah, it really is.

I mean, Baticharya himself, you know, you think about that – I don't know if I can describe it, But every now that on social media, see that photo of the massive crowd of people, and they're all saluting Hitler. And then there's that one guy who's got his hands down and showing the group think, right? And that's Bada Charya. Bada Charia was the guy who was saying that everyone else in the public health community, all of the so-called experts are wrong. That's the Great Barrington Declaration. He spoke out against the lockdowns. He said this is bad for our kids.

by the way, I have three school-age daughters in public schools. They were, you know, watching the raw deal that they got through the lockdowns and COVID. They were the ones who got the biggest raw deal. And Dr. Bottichari was the one guy out there saying that this is bad for society. It's bad for our kids. It's bad for our country. And then you turn around and President Trump picks that guy. He says, I want that guy to lead the NIH.

Never forget, too, that the NIH is where Dr. Fauci worked. So this guy, this guy who became an outcast, the whole public health establishment, they all hated him, they still hate him. And now he's confirmed to lead the agency, the institution that outcast him to begin with. That says more about President Trump than it does about Batacharya. The President Trump is serious about trying to fix the wrongs that came out of the last four years. Dr. McCarrie at FDA. I mean, you think about the Make America Healthy Again Agenda and what FDA does to approve our drugs and to truly get this country in a healthier place than where we've been, mental health issues. I've had a lot of talks. I sit on the help committee

where we will directly be working with Secretary Kennedy and Badacharya, Dr. McCarrie. I just had the president's nominee for the new Surgeon General come into my office and she's really focused on this maha movement and how the surgeon general can be a key point person and and talking about public health in the in the country in a big way so that you're you're right well this is this is really exciting it's an area that doesn't get enough attention but you look at what happened during the the lockdowns and covid and that that shows you why it matters and president trump is held on making sure that that never happens again um sinner i don't think i've I've ever asked you this, and I'm going to run the risk of putting you in a position having

to say Harvard. But are you Indiana guy? I went to Indiana University. Thank goodness. I was really nervous. You were going to say, Princeton. Who was it? I did that.

The other day, guys, I did that with somebody. I was like, we're going to talk good state college, and then they had to run off Ivy League. And I could see the shame in their eyes when they had to announce that they went to Yale. But, yeah, so you're an Indiana guy. That's right. It took me eight years. It's a great school. It's a great basketball. I was there when they fired Bobby Knight, the dark days of Indiana basketball history. So I think I came. I paid my way through school. I come from a pretty humble background. I grew up in a trailer park. My dad is a retired union factory worker. My mom was a cook and a nursing home. I was the first of my family to go to college. So I paid my way through college. And that's probably not why I think I ended up with a 2.1 or 2.2 GPA when I finally graduated. Indiana University, but I was pretty damn proud of it to come out of it with a degree and

look at me now. I mean, only in America could a kid who comes from the United States Senator and have the opportunity that I've had. I love, well, I love this country. This is the greatest country in the history of the world. And I want, I am determined every single day that I have here to protect that American dream that a kid from a trailer park grows up and does what I've been able to do. That's what I want for my daughters. That's what I want for your kids, for our grandkids to protect that for the for the future of this country. That's what that's what this is all about. Yeah. That's awesome. You need to be corrected on one small thing. You're a football school now. By all accounts and records and recent history, you're a football school over a basketball school.

That's right. I don't expect that to last. I do. I do. And by the way, it was you do. Good for you. good for you. Maybe you know something about your NIL program that I don't know, but history has a way reverting back to the mean. By the way, it was Senator Cotton. I was, yeah, you've got to be an Arkansas Razorback, and he had to shamefully say, no. I don't know. What Ivy League school is it? You probably know, Senator. I don't know which one he had. Harvard. Okay. I think Liz Warren was one of his professors.

Well, he made it through that, it appears, without too much indoctrination. I love it that we're in a place, though, where somebody has to be ashamed. They're ashamed to say they went to Harvard over the University of Indiana or University of Arkansas. That's what I like. I want that, America. Senator, it's great to have you on the show. You're always welcome, both here and at 4 o'clock, and I look forward to seeing you in the future. You got it.

Thank you very much. Have a good day. All right, Senator Jim Banks of Indiana. Okay. Before we go, we need to just give one more shot at clearing the record here. Two days, hold your breath. I've never double-diled in the matter of an hour. He may wonder where the fire is.

Is it more embarrassing to get screened twice? Yes. Or... Your call has been... Wow. I don't even feel like that was a full ring. No, it was not. That wasn't, like, you know, enough rings.

Are you guys even friends? He just big... That was a manual decline. That was a manual decline. We all agree, right? Maybe he started his investigation. Oh. That was a man.

Daniel decline. You hit decline. I know what you did. No, no, no, no. I'm in Jiu-Jitsu. You're in Jiu-Jitsu. You're on air. You're on air. No, no, no, no. Why would you do such a thing?
