Honor and Remember Flag
00:00:34
Speaker
The honor and remember flag is a nationally recognized symbol that sends a message of appreciation for the sacrifice made
00:00:42
Speaker
by our fallen heroes and their families.
00:00:44
Speaker
The flag flies at many NASCAR races around the country, and you can help honor our nation's fallen military members and remember the eternal sacrifice of their service by flying the flag too.
00:00:56
Speaker
Text FLAG to 71777 or visit honorandremember.org to learn more.
00:00:59
Speaker
Together, we remember them all.
Amateur Nation Movement
00:01:27
Speaker
Okay, let's all shut up, please.
00:01:29
Speaker
Warning.
00:01:30
Speaker
The podcast you are about to hear is often based on true events and people.
00:01:34
Speaker
It chronicles the dialogue and actions of random, anonymous, obnoxious, self-entitled, unintelligent, self-centered idiots.
00:01:41
Speaker
Attention whores, ignoramacists, dolts, clods, nimrods, douches, weirdos, drama queens, overly sensitive crybabies, and people who think they are better, more important, and special than the rest of us.
00:01:52
Speaker
In one word, amateurs.
00:01:54
Speaker
Amateurs.
00:01:56
Speaker
It's Amateur Nation with Lou Santini.
00:01:58
Speaker
We call attention to and call out the amateurs.
00:02:02
Speaker
The people who are doing life wrong.
00:02:04
Speaker
The speed bumps of life.
00:02:06
Speaker
The people that are in your way every day.
00:02:08
Speaker
The unintelligent, obnoxious, attention-whorring, self-entitled drama queen victim types who chip away at the moments of your life due to no self-awareness, common sense, manners, or social skills and are disturbing the flow of the pros.
00:02:22
Speaker
Hi, Mom.
00:02:23
Speaker
Oh, hi, Lou.
00:02:24
Speaker
Amateur Nation.
00:02:24
Speaker
It's not just a podcast.
00:02:26
Speaker
It's a movement.
Make Shame Great Again
00:02:27
Speaker
And this is the beginning of Season 6, Episode 262, Make Shame Great Again.
00:02:37
Speaker
On today's episode, this weekend, are you kidding me interviews?
00:02:41
Speaker
And the new 2024-ism is here.
00:02:44
Speaker
And this weekend, you can't reason with amateurs.
00:02:47
Speaker
Then muscle down a few more bites on a la carte.
00:02:49
Speaker
Then three things that are done right on three pro things.
00:02:54
Speaker
Pro Nation first, as always, shouts out to Seth Williams from Broadview Heights on Facebook, Brandon Davis on Truth Social, and Seth Bird, Noah Hines, Ed Scott, Tyler Lawson, Daniela Gerzel, Thomas Norwood, Lee Sullivan, Alvaro, Timmy Allen-Roberts, and Alicia.
00:03:12
Speaker
All checking me out on Instagram.
00:03:14
Speaker
You can do the same Instagram at lew.santini3, Truth Social at lew.santini.
00:03:21
Speaker
Your pro post of the week from legendary punk rocker John Lydon, AKA Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols.
00:03:29
Speaker
He said this, I never thought I'd live to see the day when the right wing would become the cool ones giving the middle finger to the establishment and the left wing becoming the sniveling self-righteous tatty ones going around shaming everyone.
00:03:44
Speaker
I'm looking at you Green Day.
00:03:45
Speaker
Show business is inherently evil.
00:03:52
Speaker
Shame.
00:03:53
Speaker
A painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior.
00:04:02
Speaker
It's a new season
Truths About Amateurs
00:04:03
Speaker
of Amateur Nation, and a little about today's title, Make Shame Great Again.
00:04:08
Speaker
Shame.
00:04:09
Speaker
No one likes feeling ashamed.
00:04:12
Speaker
But it happens at certain times in our lives.
00:04:15
Speaker
You're a child and you've disappointed your parents somehow.
00:04:18
Speaker
You're in high school and maybe you could have broken up with that boy or girl with more maturity.
00:04:23
Speaker
You're at work and haven't been carrying your load lately.
00:04:26
Speaker
You get a little carried away and unintentionally hurt a loved one's feelings.
00:04:29
Speaker
Maybe you lied, cheated, or stole.
00:04:33
Speaker
Feeling shame happens to pros and amateurs alike.
00:04:36
Speaker
Being and acting accountable for it is what separates the pros from the amateurs.
00:04:43
Speaker
When a pro admits shame, he or she admits guilt and accepts responsibility.
00:04:49
Speaker
When a pro admits shame, he or she fixes the mistake they caused, if possible, and or takes steps not to repeat that mistake that caused the shame ever again.
00:05:00
Speaker
Feeling shame drives home the point of, I screwed up and I don't like feeling like this.
00:05:06
Speaker
Feeling true shame, when felt by a pro, most often spawns an apology, retribution, reparations.
00:05:15
Speaker
Feeling shame is to accept blame and fallibility.
00:05:20
Speaker
As you have heard in 261 episodes before this one, and in my book, and including the amateurs you will hear from and about on today's episode, amateurs have no shame.
00:05:32
Speaker
They have no ability to feel it because of, pick one, brainwashing, propaganda on mainstream media, bad parenting, entitlement, and or bad public education.
00:05:46
Speaker
From the 30 truths about amateurs from my book, Amateur Nation, The Decline of Common Sense Manners and Social Skills, available for download on Amazon.
00:05:54
Speaker
Some of the truths that prevent amateurs from acknowledging their shame.
00:06:00
Speaker
Make no mistake, amateurs feel shame daily, most likely hourly, but they'll never admit shame because then they'd have to take a long look within and they know they would hate what they saw and felt.
Political and Social Satire
00:06:14
Speaker
From the 30 Truths About Amateurs, number two, amateurs want to be left alone.
00:06:20
Speaker
Number six, amateurs are fragile and easily offended.
00:06:24
Speaker
Number seven, amateurs accuse first and ask no questions later.
00:06:28
Speaker
Number eight, amateurs never apologize.
00:06:31
Speaker
Number 12, amateurs are special.
00:06:34
Speaker
Number 14, amateurs believe social media is truth and the real world.
00:06:39
Speaker
And numbers 23 through 28, amateurs are loud.
00:06:44
Speaker
Amateurs are depressed.
00:06:45
Speaker
Amateurs are lonely.
00:06:46
Speaker
Amateurs peaked long ago.
00:06:49
Speaker
Amateurs are bored.
00:06:50
Speaker
Amateurs are unfulfilled.
00:06:54
Speaker
You will see examples of this and evidence of this on today's episode as we kick off season six, Make Shame Great Again.
00:07:05
Speaker
Here's what's happening in Amateur Nation.
00:07:06
Speaker
Now dig this.
00:07:07
Speaker
Step one.
00:07:09
Speaker
Topic number one.
00:07:11
Speaker
It's time for This Week in Are You Kidding Me?
00:07:14
Speaker
Interviews.
00:07:15
Speaker
Jill.
00:07:18
Speaker
Biden.
00:07:19
Speaker
No shame.
00:07:20
Speaker
None.
00:07:21
Speaker
Blissfully parades her senile, incontinent, lying, corrupt, and treasonous husband president around to line her and her crime family's pockets.
00:07:30
Speaker
She ignores Joe's track record of bad parenting and bad husbandry.
00:07:35
Speaker
She ignores his declining mental and physical health for her own financial gain.
00:07:39
Speaker
She ignores him sniffing kids.
00:07:42
Speaker
She disgraced the White House with her embarrassingly flamboyant Christmas dance routine.
00:07:47
Speaker
She brings no skills or contributions to being a first lady.
00:07:50
Speaker
She has no diplomatic skills.
00:07:52
Speaker
That's the thing about shame.
00:07:53
Speaker
When you have none, you think you've done something with your life and go on national TV.
00:07:58
Speaker
In this case, an interview on MSNBC and think that this interview, these words...
00:08:04
Speaker
will instill confidence in America.
00:08:07
Speaker
Her husband is 81.
00:08:09
Speaker
At the end of the second term, he'd be 86.
00:08:12
Speaker
As his life partner of 46 years, is there a part of you that is worried about his age and health?
00:08:19
Speaker
Can he do it?
00:08:21
Speaker
He can do it.
00:08:22
Speaker
And I see Joe every day.
00:08:24
Speaker
I see him out, you know, traveling around this country.
00:08:28
Speaker
I see his vigor.
00:08:29
Speaker
I see his energy.
00:08:31
Speaker
I see his passion.
00:08:33
Speaker
Children!
00:08:34
Speaker
I love children!
00:08:35
Speaker
No, no, no.
00:08:36
Speaker
I mean passion, vigor, and energy for doing his job for taxpaying honest Americans.
00:08:41
Speaker
Anyone seeing this energy from Biden?
00:08:44
Speaker
This vigor?
00:08:45
Speaker
The passion?
00:08:48
Speaker
Oh, wait.
00:08:48
Speaker
He was pretty fired up during this speech.
00:08:51
Speaker
He said it is what it is.
00:08:54
Speaker
Well, it is what it is because he is who he is.
00:08:58
Speaker
That's why it is what it is.
00:08:59
Speaker
And I think what people don't see is how hard Joe works every single day.
00:09:06
Speaker
Did you mean for all those words to come out together or did they just fall out randomly?
00:09:11
Speaker
That he gets up thinking what he can do for the American people.
00:09:17
Speaker
Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining.
00:09:20
Speaker
President Coloring Book's unbridled passion during his Build Back Better circus has resulted in overall prices going up 17.4%, food 20.3%, rent 18.6%, and electricity 24.3% increased.
00:09:29
Speaker
And he got all that done
Media and Political Critique
00:09:31
Speaker
while spending almost 40% of his time in office on vacation.
00:09:46
Speaker
Imagine if he didn't have all this energy, vigor, and passion.
00:09:50
Speaker
He was a very old man in a torn jacket.
00:09:54
Speaker
He walked very slowly to the stand.
00:09:58
Speaker
He was dragging his left leg and trying to hide it because he was shamed.
00:10:04
Speaker
This is a frightened, insignificant old man who has been nothing all his life.
00:10:11
Speaker
Nobody quotes him.
00:10:13
Speaker
Nobody seeks his advice after 75 years.
00:10:14
Speaker
Make Shame Great Again.
00:10:23
Speaker
This next interview features the only woman in politics in second place behind Hillary Does This Chloroform Rag Smell Funny Clinton in terms of bitterness, hostility, corruption, and failure.
00:10:34
Speaker
Liz Cheney.
00:10:36
Speaker
Here she is as a guest on the Mount Rushmore of TV stupid, The View.
00:10:40
Speaker
Being talked at by Whoopi, please call me Karen, my real name, Goldberg, who spouts off a litany of fabrications that despite their stupidity and lack of evidence will still feel bad.
00:10:51
Speaker
No shame.
00:10:52
Speaker
I'm so sick of whoopies.
00:10:53
Speaker
The world is, but still, listen.
00:10:55
Speaker
Do you see yourself and would you ever consider being the conduit to that third party?
00:11:01
Speaker
Because I don't know if the Republican Party as we knew it will survive this.
00:11:08
Speaker
Because if he ever gets in again, we'll never have any more elections.
00:11:11
Speaker
There will be no more.
Shame and Health Discussion
00:11:14
Speaker
Now that's funny.
00:11:15
Speaker
That's what the rest of America, pro-nation, says about this upcoming election.
00:11:20
Speaker
And what are you basing that on?
00:11:22
Speaker
Yep, Trump wants no more elections.
00:11:24
Speaker
For life.
00:11:25
Speaker
As if he has the power to simply remove elections.
00:11:28
Speaker
And accurate voting and fair ele- Wait a minute.
00:11:32
Speaker
As always, the commies accuse the Americans, the true Americans, pro-nation, of exactly what they themselves are planning.
00:11:40
Speaker
He will stop it, and he's very clear about that.
00:11:43
Speaker
He wants to be dictator for life.
00:11:46
Speaker
Okay?
00:11:47
Speaker
Wrong!
00:11:49
Speaker
That's wrong!
00:11:51
Speaker
Oh, okay, Karen.
00:11:52
Speaker
You said some words, and now it's true.
00:11:54
Speaker
So I wonder, would you ever consider, please, would you, please, consider being that person?
00:12:03
Speaker
Boy, you thought Hillary got trounced by Trump in 2016.
00:12:07
Speaker
Make shame great again.
00:12:09
Speaker
And now this.
00:12:11
Speaker
And now for step two.
00:12:12
Speaker
Topic number two.
00:12:15
Speaker
When it comes to your appearance, a bad haircut, a poor choice in shirts, your weight, shame can be a powerful motivator.
00:12:21
Speaker
Let's be honest, Lou.
00:12:23
Speaker
Oh, you ready for some honesty?
00:12:25
Speaker
Much of which, perhaps all of which you already knew.
00:12:27
Speaker
If you're going to lie to me, tell me there's a broad weight in the car.
00:12:30
Speaker
I want to tongue my balls.
00:12:31
Speaker
No, no, no.
00:12:31
Speaker
Ready?
00:12:32
Speaker
There's no shame in being fat.
00:12:36
Speaker
It's okay if you're fat.
00:12:38
Speaker
And it was always okay to be fat.
00:12:42
Speaker
Being fat doesn't make you a bad person.
00:12:45
Speaker
You needed to hear that, didn't you, amateur nation?
00:12:48
Speaker
However, it's still not healthy to be fat.
00:12:52
Speaker
There is shame in pretending or lying to yourself that being fat is healthy.
00:12:58
Speaker
I admire your honesty.
00:12:59
Speaker
Hell, I like you.
00:13:00
Speaker
You can come over to my house and fuck my sister.
00:13:03
Speaker
You wonder why America has an all-time low level of trust in its health care system?
00:13:07
Speaker
Besides the COVID hoax and the vaccine hoax, it's because of shame-free doctors like Nicole J. Van Groningen at Cedars-Sinai Hospital.
00:13:16
Speaker
Is she a great big fat person?
00:13:18
Speaker
No, she's not.
00:13:19
Speaker
But you eat up, chubby.
00:13:20
Speaker
It's cool.
00:13:21
Speaker
Listen to her.
00:13:22
Speaker
It's my hot take as a doctor.
00:13:23
Speaker
I totally agree.
00:13:25
Speaker
It is okay to be fat.
00:13:26
Speaker
Yeah.
00:13:27
Speaker
Science isn't an exact science.
00:13:29
Speaker
Yes, it is okay to be fat if you're Santa or Norm on Cheers.
00:13:33
Speaker
We don't say that enough, but it needs to be normalized.
00:13:37
Speaker
Okay, and how exactly does normalization of something occur?
00:13:43
Speaker
Oh, that's right.
00:13:44
Speaker
Put a morbidly obese woman on the cover of Cosmo with the banner, This is Healthy.
00:13:49
Speaker
Show mostly fat people on commercials.
00:13:51
Speaker
Insist that Lizzo is sexy.
00:13:54
Speaker
Oh wait, we already do that stuff and being fat is still unhealthy.
00:13:58
Speaker
Normal or not.
00:14:00
Speaker
If you are fat, that is okay.
00:14:01
Speaker
Okay.
00:14:03
Speaker
If you are fat and needed to hear this from a doctor, then you've already resigned yourself to a life of unhealthy simply because you heard what you wanted to hear.
00:14:12
Speaker
The truth is, and this is the truth, only a true friend tells you the stuff you don't want to hear.
00:14:18
Speaker
Being fat is hard on your joints, your heart, your muscles, your breathing, your immune system, your emotions, your sex life, and your mental, sexual, and emotional health, and your wallet.
00:14:29
Speaker
But other than that, it's totally fine.
00:14:32
Speaker
I know, and I'm not even a doctor, and I figured that out.
00:14:35
Speaker
Same way I knew that walking one direction down an aisle wouldn't keep me from getting COVID, or wearing a mask wouldn't keep me from getting COVID, or getting an untested gene experiment wouldn't keep me from getting COVID.
00:14:46
Speaker
Email me, lou at lou santini dot com, for more helpful health tips.
00:14:50
Speaker
Join Dr. Van Groningen for more things that are okay.
00:14:54
Speaker
Smoking, heroin, standing on the top rung of a ladder, taking a bath with a toaster plugged in.
00:14:59
Speaker
It's okay, no judgment.
00:15:01
Speaker
Have unprotected sex with meth addicted hookers.
00:15:04
Speaker
It's time that it's
Satire on Health and Society
00:15:05
Speaker
normalized.
00:15:06
Speaker
Normalizing things takes the health risk out of everything.
00:15:09
Speaker
It is typically not a problem that requires immediate solving.
00:15:13
Speaker
It is not an emergency.
00:15:15
Speaker
You don't have to drop everything in the pursuit of being not fat.
00:15:21
Speaker
Okay, so it's not an emergency until you have a weird feeling in your left arm.
00:15:25
Speaker
And even then, relax.
00:15:27
Speaker
Have a ho-ho.
00:15:28
Speaker
Also, thanks for explaining that dropping everything and that it's no emergency.
00:15:33
Speaker
Because I assumed if I jumped the gun immediately, results would soon follow.
00:15:37
Speaker
Also note how she says in the pursuit of being not fat rather than getting fit and healthy.
00:15:43
Speaker
Don't even let the amateurs think it.
00:15:46
Speaker
Hey, fatty, you are fat!
00:15:48
Speaker
Ha!
00:15:49
Speaker
Ready for this amateur doctor who should feel massive shame and have her license revoked to double down on her great medical advice?
00:15:55
Speaker
Here we go.
00:15:56
Speaker
Erin said this other thing in a different video that I totally agree with as well is that it is okay to not be healthy.
00:16:01
Speaker
Yeah.
00:16:03
Speaker
Honey, what did the doctor say?
00:16:05
Speaker
I told you, it's okay that I smoke and morbidly obese and drink a six-pack daily.
00:16:09
Speaker
The doctor said it was okay to not be healthy.
00:16:12
Speaker
All right, honey, how did I ever doubt you?
00:16:14
Speaker
Come here, my dying tub of lard.
00:16:16
Speaker
Let me try to put my arms around you.
00:16:18
Speaker
And the best part is, I still paid her for advice and keep paying my health insurance for some reason, even though illegal aliens get free health care.
00:16:26
Speaker
Can you believe those losers are so thin from walking hundreds of miles to be here?
00:16:31
Speaker
When will they learn that being unhealthy is okay and it's normalized?
00:16:35
Speaker
We act like it is this moral failing, this cardinal sin that you deserve a scarlet letter if you are not healthy.
00:16:44
Speaker
A. We do not act like it is a moral failing if you are unhealthy and or fat.
00:16:50
Speaker
Don't project on us.
00:16:51
Speaker
That's on you, amateur doctor.
00:16:53
Speaker
B. Shame on you, medical professional.
00:16:56
Speaker
C. These medical professionals are the same people who had time to choreograph complicated dance moves during the pandemic and shutdowns.
00:17:03
Speaker
D. And you wonder why people don't trust the medical community.
00:17:07
Speaker
E.
00:17:08
Speaker
If you're unfit, fat, obese, unhealthy in some way that is within your control and you do feel a moral failing, then brace yourself.
00:17:17
Speaker
Make a change.
00:17:18
Speaker
It's over.
00:17:19
Speaker
The fat lady isn't singing.
00:17:20
Speaker
Her song is done.
00:17:21
Speaker
She's getting dry humped in her dressing room.
00:17:23
Speaker
Step one would be not having Dr. Fauci's protege here, Dr. Van Groningen, as your doctor.
00:17:30
Speaker
Now we're going to bring it home with what amateurs do best, labeling.
00:17:34
Speaker
You see, when you label something, it can be marketed.
00:17:37
Speaker
And when something is marketed, the stupidest amateurs easily buy into it.
00:17:41
Speaker
Ready for the latest, newest, improved 2024 experience?
00:17:45
Speaker
And there's a name for that and that's called healthism.
00:17:49
Speaker
Don't be healthist.
00:17:51
Speaker
Make shame great again.

Whoever wrote this
Absurd Political Debates
00:19:48
Speaker
episode should die!
00:19:49
Speaker
All right, now step three.
00:19:51
Speaker
Topic number three.
00:19:56
Speaker
It's time for This Week in You Can't Reason with Amateurs.
00:19:59
Speaker
Remember when you were a child and you'd ask your mom, can I have some cookies?
00:20:03
Speaker
And mom would say, not until after dinner.
00:20:05
Speaker
And you'd say, why not?
00:20:06
Speaker
And mom would say, because I said so.
00:20:08
Speaker
And conversation over.
00:20:10
Speaker
As a child, it never occurred to you to reply with, but what's the reason?
00:20:14
Speaker
Upon what facts, dear mother, are you basing this judgment?
00:20:17
Speaker
Why should I abide by your ruling of no cookies?
00:20:21
Speaker
It never occurred to you to ask these questions because you were a child, plus you wanted to live.
00:20:26
Speaker
But now you're an adult, and now that you're into adulthood, it's nice to know when confronting these types of injustices, so to speak, when denied something, when accused of something, in this case a reporter, being accused of being a white supremacist by a fellow cracker, it's nice to know you'll finally get that reasoning, that flushed-out rationale, that full explanation for said injustice.
00:20:50
Speaker
Here, a masked obese woman, who is clearly concerned about her physical health, accuses her interviewer of being a white supremacist.
00:20:58
Speaker
Voting for Trump?
00:20:59
Speaker
Yep.
00:21:00
Speaker
White supremacist.
00:21:01
Speaker
How?
00:21:02
Speaker
How can you say that?
00:21:03
Speaker
How can I say if you vote for Donald Trump, you're a white supremacist?
00:21:06
Speaker
How?
00:21:07
Speaker
How?
00:21:07
Speaker
Because you support that man in office.
00:21:10
Speaker
That's not an argument.
00:21:11
Speaker
I'm going to need proof that that makes me a white supremacist.
00:21:13
Speaker
You're going to have to break down the argument?
00:21:15
Speaker
It's not my job to say that.
00:21:18
Speaker
Ah, the amateur nation slogan.
00:21:20
Speaker
So whose job is it to prove that this particular woman, this interviewer, this journalist is a white supremacist?
00:21:28
Speaker
You're saying someone does have this job?
00:21:31
Speaker
Or are you saying you got me?
00:21:33
Speaker
I have no proof.
00:21:34
Speaker
I spoke out of my bloated, dented ass while hiding behind a mask and I was just spouting off with nothing to back it up.
00:21:40
Speaker
You just accused me of being a waste of... You should be able to back that up.
00:21:44
Speaker
Are you voting for Donald Trump?
00:21:44
Speaker
I sure am.
00:21:45
Speaker
That's my proof.
00:21:46
Speaker
Are you voting for Joe Biden?
00:21:47
Speaker
Yes, I am.
00:21:48
Speaker
Then you're a pedophile.
00:21:49
Speaker
No.
00:21:51
Speaker
Well argued.
00:21:52
Speaker
Someone was the captain of the debate team in junior high.
00:21:55
Speaker
If someone accuses you of something, something heinous, like being a pedophile, just reply, no.
00:22:02
Speaker
Use it in court.
00:22:03
Speaker
Defend infidelity to your wife.
00:22:06
Speaker
I bet the Epstein Island listeners never thought of that defense.
00:22:09
Speaker
It's so dumb.
00:22:10
Speaker
It's so dumb, it's brilliant.
00:22:13
Speaker
No!
00:22:14
Speaker
It's just dumb.
00:22:15
Speaker
Okay, let's roll it back a tad and hear the journalist get her final shot in, thereby proving my point and hers, while pointing out the lack of argument and intelligence and ignorance of this amateur.
00:22:28
Speaker
You just accused me of being a white supremacist.
00:22:30
Speaker
You should be able to back that up.
00:22:31
Speaker
Are you voting for Donald Trump?
00:22:32
Speaker
I sure am.
00:22:32
Speaker
That's my proof.
00:22:34
Speaker
Are you voting for Joe Biden?
00:22:35
Speaker
Yes, I am.
00:22:35
Speaker
Then you're a pedophile.
00:22:37
Speaker
No.
00:22:38
Speaker
Yes, you are.
00:22:38
Speaker
I'm a pedophile.
00:22:39
Speaker
You're a pedophile.
00:22:40
Speaker
How?
00:22:41
Speaker
You like to sniff kids.
00:22:43
Speaker
Don't you hate reasoning with people as stupid as yourself?
00:22:46
Speaker
Especially when they mirror your own stupidity and throw it right back in your face exposing how stupid you are.
00:22:52
Speaker
Don't you hate that, amateurs?
00:22:54
Speaker
Oh, that's right.
00:22:55
Speaker
You don't like the word hate either.
00:22:57
Speaker
Oh.
Identity Issues Satire
00:23:03
Speaker
No, you can't reason with amateurs the same way you can't reason with your pet or any other animal.
00:23:08
Speaker
For example, a wolf.
00:23:10
Speaker
Here's Matt Walsh talking to a wolf.
00:23:12
Speaker
27-year-old transgender woman.
00:23:13
Speaker
I am a wolf.
00:23:13
Speaker
You literally just said, I am a 27-year-old transgender woman.
00:23:23
Speaker
Play it back.
00:23:24
Speaker
Play it again.
00:23:25
Speaker
27-year-old transgender woman.
00:23:27
Speaker
I am a wolf.
00:23:28
Speaker
So are you a trans woman or a wolf?
00:23:31
Speaker
Are you a trans wolf?
00:23:33
Speaker
And you're a man.
00:23:34
Speaker
One more time.
00:23:35
Speaker
And really listen to the strength, the intimidation, the power with which this wolf speaks.
00:23:41
Speaker
27-year-old transgender woman.
00:23:43
Speaker
I am a wolf.
00:23:45
Speaker
Would you be able to give us an example of this wolf communication?
00:23:48
Speaker
No.
00:23:49
Speaker
I'm not comfortable doing so.
00:23:51
Speaker
Yeah.
00:23:53
Speaker
We'd act like a little bitch.
00:23:54
Speaker
That's wolf talk if I ever heard it.
00:23:56
Speaker
Wolves are known for being shy and timid.
00:23:58
Speaker
Remember the three little pigs and how the big bad wolf, after much coaxing, reluctantly blew the pigs' houses down?
00:24:04
Speaker
Remember when Little Red Riding Hood mistook a wolf for her own grandmother?
00:24:08
Speaker
It was because of the shyness, restraint, and comported nature of the wolf that tricked her.
00:24:12
Speaker
Duran Duran had it all wrong.
00:24:14
Speaker
So did rock and roll legend Howlin' Wolf.
00:24:16
Speaker
Wolves hate howling and being wolf-like.
00:24:19
Speaker
It makes them uncomfortable.
00:24:21
Speaker
You've seen it.
00:24:22
Speaker
Here's Matt again interviewing a teacher to discuss the animal population in our public school system.
00:24:28
Speaker
You have kids that are going to school and they're saying, I'm a cat.
00:24:31
Speaker
And the teachers have to affirm them as a cat.
00:24:34
Speaker
Yes.
00:24:34
Speaker
So now we are seeing kids that are identifying as animals going to school, and they are purring instead of answering questions, and they meow, and the teachers are not allowed to question it because it's considered a queer identity.
00:24:52
Speaker
So cats and dogs are gay?
00:24:57
Speaker
No wonder my dog keeps rearranging the furniture.
00:24:59
Speaker
Man, I have so much to learn about sexuality and genders.
00:25:06
Speaker
Who would have thought HBO's old series Real Sex would seem normal decades later?
00:25:11
Speaker
Remember?
00:25:12
Speaker
You'd watch Real Sex as a teenager hoping to see a story about some nudist colony in hopes of finding one attractive woman who hadn't been ravaged by gravity or they'd take you to a male strip club?
00:25:22
Speaker
Now we have trans wolves and purring schoolchildren.
00:25:25
Speaker
Ah, progress.
00:25:27
Speaker
Please, America.
00:25:29
Speaker
Pro Nation.
00:25:31
Speaker
Make Shame Great Again.
00:25:32
Speaker
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:25:41
Speaker
No shame admitting you're still a little bit hungry here.
00:25:43
Speaker
That's why we have the a la carte menu.
00:25:45
Speaker
A few bites more.
00:25:46
Speaker
Here we go.
00:25:48
Speaker
Looks like one of the members of the Mount Rushmore of Evil, Dr. Keebler L. Fauci, is feeling the heat of those who have been calling him out.
00:25:55
Speaker
First, he admits that the COVID six-foot social distancing nonsense just sort of appeared and lacked scientific basis.
00:26:03
Speaker
Now he's admitting that COVID vaccines cause myocarditis, particularly in young men.
00:26:10
Speaker
The Keebler elf had this to say.
00:26:12
Speaker
I can handle things.
00:26:14
Speaker
I'm smart.
00:26:15
Speaker
I'm like everybody says.
00:26:17
Speaker
Like dumb, I'm smart and I want the speech!
00:26:20
Speaker
Speaking of the shameful medical industry, Johns Hopkins just posted a hit list of people guilty of privilege.
00:26:28
Speaker
No shockers here, white people, able-bodied people, those dicks, heterosexuals, stupid non-gays, cisgender people, stupid fictional gender people, males, all of them, glad I'm not one of them, Christians, they like God, the middle class,
00:26:44
Speaker
Those jerks, the main people who make America actually function.
00:26:48
Speaker
Middle-aged people, too old to be a drain on society, too young to kill off with COVID easily.
00:26:53
Speaker
And English-speaking people, said Johns Hopkins Chief Diversity Officer Sherita Hill.
00:26:59
Speaker
In English, she's also middle-aged and able-bodied.
00:27:03
Speaker
Not sure who she worships or what genitals she likes looking at, which is always important to amateur nation.
00:27:08
Speaker
But the important thing is she gets to keep her job.
00:27:11
Speaker
You know, since she's so tolerant.
00:27:16
Speaker
Time for Jeopardy!
00:27:17
Speaker
The answer?
00:27:18
Speaker
Zero of 41 since 1967.
00:27:21
Speaker
The question?
00:27:22
Speaker
How many climate disaster predictions have come true in 56 years?
00:27:26
Speaker
Zero out of 41 since 1967.
00:27:30
Speaker
Amateur nation?
00:27:31
Speaker
They're due!
00:27:32
Speaker
The environment is falling to shit and you're all in fact!
00:27:36
Speaker
Meanwhile, in Uganda, they've passed a law making it a crime to identify as LGBTQ carrying the death penalty in some cases.
00:27:44
Speaker
No word on whether it's okay to identify as a wolf.
00:27:47
Speaker
Guess you don't have it so bad here in America, do you, LGBTQ population, do you?
00:27:51
Speaker
Answer?
Critique of Societal Priorities
00:27:52
Speaker
No, you don't.
00:27:54
Speaker
In addition to prancing their racially diverse all-female flight crew, Delta Airlines is going balls out stating that when people communicate within the company, black and brown should be capitalized and white not capitalized.
00:28:08
Speaker
Haven't black people been through enough?
00:28:10
Speaker
Go DEI!
00:28:11
Speaker
Feel empowered black and brown, I mean capitalized black and brown people.
00:28:16
Speaker
Why stop there Delta?
00:28:17
Speaker
Why not make the entire words black and brown all capitalized?
00:28:21
Speaker
Caps lock biatch!
00:28:23
Speaker
Time now for three pro things.
00:28:25
Speaker
Three things that are done right.
00:28:27
Speaker
Number one.
00:28:34
Speaker
To give you an idea of the money absolutely wasted in the money laundering operation that is the Ukraine war, this from Mindset Essentials on Instagram, but brought to my attention from alert pro Lee Sullivan.
00:28:47
Speaker
With the $165 billion we gave to Ukraine, we could have built six border walls to stop illegal immigrants from pouring across our southern border, could have fixed Flynn's water system 215 times over, easily,
00:29:01
Speaker
Could have given, I like this one, could have given every homeless vet $2 million.
00:29:05
Speaker
Holy shit.
00:29:07
Speaker
Could have given $50 million to every family impacted by the Maui wildfires.
00:29:12
Speaker
They got $700.
00:29:13
Speaker
They got $700 each.
00:29:15
Speaker
We got to get our priorities straight, buddy.
00:29:17
Speaker
According to HUD, they think it would take $20 billion to end homelessness in America.
00:29:22
Speaker
$20 billion.
00:29:22
Speaker
And would you say we've sent $100 and how much?
00:29:25
Speaker
$165 billion.
00:29:27
Speaker
So we could have ended homelessness eight times over in America.
00:29:31
Speaker
pissed off yet.
00:29:33
Speaker
Number two.
00:29:35
Speaker
True or false?
00:29:37
Speaker
EVs are a good idea.
00:29:38
Speaker
It's an electric car and it's very good for the environment.
00:29:45
Speaker
Here's a hint.
00:29:46
Speaker
Listen to just about every episode of this podcast and you'll get the answer.
00:29:50
Speaker
Backed up by facts and proof and statistics and quotes from automotive professionals.
00:29:55
Speaker
So maybe you still are an amateur and are considering buying one.
00:30:00
Speaker
You could rent one to see if you like it or buy a used one from Hertz.
00:30:04
Speaker
Get your Tesla for under 20,000 bucks.
00:30:07
Speaker
Rental car company Hertz is selling off 20,000 cars from their electric vehicle fleet and using that money to buy gas powered cars.
00:30:15
Speaker
The company says the EVs are hurting its bottom line.
00:30:19
Speaker
Hertz says the electric vehicles are getting into more crashes and costing about twice as much to repair.
00:30:25
Speaker
Rapid depreciation when trying to resell the cars is also a problem.
00:30:29
Speaker
Hertz expects to lose about $245 million due to depreciation on its EVs.
00:30:36
Speaker
Anyone want a Hertz donut?
00:30:38
Speaker
Number three.
00:30:42
Speaker
Let's end the show on some funny.
00:30:44
Speaker
Worst president of all time, most corrupt president of all time, most senile and incontinent president of all time is now also the worst speaker of all time.
00:30:53
Speaker
From Alert Pro, Victoria Ray on Instagram, this audio of President Coloring Book and a medley of trying to say foreign names led in by Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz.

There's been an odd shift in human behavior over the last 15 plus years.
00:32:37
Speaker
A sense of entitlement.
00:32:39
Speaker
A constant need for attention.
00:32:41
Speaker
Ironically coupled with the need to be left alone.
00:32:43
Speaker
A desire to be treated the same as everyone else.
00:32:46
Speaker
Stupidly combined with the mindset of, I'm special, so treat me accordingly.
