Podcast's Theme and Humor Warning
00:00:54
Speaker
The podcast you are about to hear is often based on true events and people.
00:00:59
Speaker
It chronicles the dialogue and actions of random, anonymous, obnoxious, self-entitled, unintelligent, self-centered idiots.
00:01:06
Speaker
Attention whores, ignoramuses, 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.
00:01:16
Speaker
In one word, amateurs.
00:01:20
Speaker
It's Amateur Nation with Lou Santini.
00:01:23
Speaker
We call attention to and call out the amateurs.
00:01:26
Speaker
The people who are doing life wrong.
00:01:29
Speaker
The speed bumps of life.
00:01:30
Speaker
The people that are in your way every day.
00:01:32
Speaker
The unintelligent, obnoxious, attention-whoring, 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.
00:01:48
Speaker
And happy birthday, Mom.
00:01:50
Speaker
Amateur Nation, it's not just a podcast, it's a movement.
00:01:53
Speaker
Now we have a show host here.
00:01:55
Speaker
He's a great host.
00:01:56
Speaker
He's a real emcee.
00:01:58
Speaker
Happy Easter, everybody!
Discussion on 'Based' and Social Media Trends
00:02:00
Speaker
This is episode 220, getting more based with each episode.
00:02:06
Speaker
Fans first, shout out to Maya Queen on Instagram, who was the inspiration for this week's title when she commented on one of my posts, your show is getting more based each episode.
00:02:16
Speaker
You may be asking, okay Lou, while I'm smart, a pro, and incredibly good looking, what does based mean?
00:02:22
Speaker
Well, based basically means being yourself and not caring what others think of you.
00:02:26
Speaker
To carry yourself with swagger.
00:02:29
Speaker
Oh, that's this podcast for sure.
00:02:32
Speaker
And text one person this message.
00:02:34
Speaker
You've got to listen to this podcast and copy and paste the link to the episode you're hearing right now.
Logic vs. Humor in Debates
00:02:39
Speaker
Here is your post of the week from at Zuby Music.
00:02:42
Speaker
Love this guy's stuff.
00:02:44
Speaker
He said, a mistake most people make when dealing with members of the woke cult is attempting to engage them with logic and rational arguments.
00:02:53
Speaker
These people did not reach their worldview through logic, but through emotion.
00:02:59
Speaker
Making fun of them is infinitely more effective.
00:03:05
Speaker
What have I been saying?
00:03:06
Speaker
You can't fix stupid.
00:03:07
Speaker
You can't reason with people who think that, well, because I feel something, it's true and or supersedes facts, reality, and my favorites, logic and common sense.
00:03:19
Speaker
Here's a heads up.
00:03:20
Speaker
This podcast, if you are new to the show, is rich in common sense.
00:03:25
Speaker
So if you're an amateur listening to the show for the very first time, you might have a little headache at the end.
Political Commentary and Hypocrisy Discussion
00:03:34
Speaker
Enjoying your police state, amateur nation?
00:03:38
Speaker
I've always believed everything can be joked about.
00:03:42
Speaker
But clever jokes aside, do you not see how dangerous arresting a former president for a non-crime years after the fact and way past a statute of limitations is
00:04:01
Speaker
is the clearest sign of corruption in our government?
00:04:05
Speaker
Just orange man bad, huh?
00:04:08
Speaker
You don't find it odd that when Clinton was president, a president I admittedly voted for back then, while he was president, lied under oath, and never was indicted?
00:04:23
Speaker
You don't see that we're not supposed to be looking at Eric Swalwell who slept with a Chinese spy for years?
00:04:30
Speaker
Adam Schiff lied in Congress.
00:04:34
Speaker
And while the Biden crime family has been proven to have committed treasonous acts and Hunter Biden's laptop is ignored, that seems right to you.
00:04:45
Speaker
I'll quote President Coloring Book.
00:04:46
Speaker
I can't believe I'm saying this.
00:04:48
Speaker
No one is above the law.
00:04:50
Speaker
Amateur nation, you're pathetic and un-American.
00:04:56
Speaker
Here's what's happening in Amateur Nation.
00:04:58
Speaker
Perhaps you had better start from the beginning.
00:05:02
Speaker
Amateur Nation is so stupid.
00:05:06
Speaker
Well, you're about to hear for yourself.
00:05:08
Speaker
To be clear and pro, I should be sure to credit the next three audio clips were found on PragerU's Instagram feed.
00:05:15
Speaker
You're going to hear three different man-on-the-street interviews with all millennial participants discussing three much-discussed topics in America and then a bonus general question.
00:05:26
Speaker
First up, American health
Healthcare Opinions and Commentary
00:05:28
Speaker
Think about health care in America right now.
00:05:32
Speaker
Can I cuss in here?
00:05:34
Speaker
You're outside, dunce.
00:05:35
Speaker
Definitely important.
00:05:36
Speaker
You gotta have healthcare.
00:05:37
Speaker
You gotta have some healthcare, you feel me?
00:05:40
Speaker
You don't have healthcare, you don't care about yourself.
00:05:43
Speaker
Uh, no, professor.
00:05:44
Speaker
It probably means you can't afford it.
00:05:46
Speaker
I think it's stupid because they charge you way too much.
00:05:50
Speaker
It's all about money.
00:05:52
Speaker
Welcome to life, amateur.
00:05:53
Speaker
Feel free to do your job and or offer your services for free.
00:05:57
Speaker
I think holistic healthcare is a lot more, like, smarter.
00:06:03
Speaker
Slow down on all these facts and specifics, doctor.
00:06:06
Speaker
It's just a basic human right to have health care, you know what I'm saying?
00:06:08
Speaker
Like, everyone should be entitled to live a happy and healthy life.
00:06:11
Speaker
It's like in our bill of rights or whatever.
00:06:16
Speaker
B, not in the like bill of rights and stuff.
00:06:24
Speaker
What would you do to fix it if you had the power to, let's say?
00:06:28
Speaker
If I had the power to?
00:06:31
Speaker
Universal health care is only the beginning.
00:06:34
Speaker
What comes after that?
00:06:36
Speaker
I'm really on the spot right now.
00:06:37
Speaker
I'm going to opt out of this, actually.
00:06:43
Speaker
When things get tough, bail.
Controversial Petition and Public Opinion
00:06:49
Speaker
Transgender surgeries for underage children.
00:06:52
Speaker
Now, in this experiment, the PragerU interviewer creates a fake petition for a fake five-year-old who wants to transition, but his parents won't let him.
00:07:02
Speaker
And he's asking for signatures to support this child in their journey.
00:07:06
Speaker
Again, it's a fake petition, but listen to the amateurs with whom he speaks.
00:07:11
Speaker
He even leads their opinion, dropping hints that this is not a good thing, giving them the option to question and see the absolute abomination that this circumstance is.
00:07:22
Speaker
And you can guess.
00:07:23
Speaker
They don't even blink.
00:07:25
Speaker
Knee jerk reactions from Virtue Signaling Amateur Nation.
00:07:29
Speaker
Annie Rodriguez is a five-year-old girl of color and she wants to transition, but her bad parents won't let her.
00:07:35
Speaker
Would you guys mind signing a support for her?
00:07:39
Speaker
Little Annie Rodriguez is a five-year-old girl of color and she wants to transition and her parents aren't letting her.
00:07:46
Speaker
We're trying to petition support for her.
00:07:48
Speaker
Yeah, that's fine.
00:07:50
Speaker
At five, she has a right to be who she wants to be, correct?
00:07:53
Speaker
I think she knows what she is.
00:07:55
Speaker
I think she's fully developed off to realize that.
00:07:58
Speaker
Her parents think that she can't make that kind of decision, and we think she can.
00:08:01
Speaker
And I think she's ready to make a decision like that.
00:08:05
Speaker
If you're coming up to people during a pandemic, I think you should at least be wearing a mask.
00:08:10
Speaker
But for little Annie Rodriguez, she's five.
00:08:13
Speaker
She wants to do the transition now.
00:08:16
Speaker
To a five-year-old.
00:08:18
Speaker
Thank you very much.
00:08:20
Speaker
Thank you very much.
00:08:21
Speaker
Look, they don't know what they're talking about.
00:08:23
Speaker
And finally, the topic we've mentioned dozens of times on this podcast and is a hotbed issue everywhere in social media, is there media bias?
Media Bias and Incomplete Truths
00:08:33
Speaker
Wait, especially for the final woman being interviewed.
00:08:36
Speaker
Do you think the mainstream media leans to one side or the other particularly?
00:08:40
Speaker
Like overall, do you think they... Everything's like left-leaning, you know?
00:08:44
Speaker
In general, I'd say it's mostly left, yeah.
00:08:47
Speaker
I feel like a lot of it's left-leaning, but all of it's just very biased.
00:08:53
Speaker
That one's going to get me in trouble, but definitely the left.
00:08:56
Speaker
It's skewed in a way for it to favor a more liberal agenda.
00:09:02
Speaker
which may preclude me from getting the entire truth of something, but I kind of accept that.
00:09:10
Speaker
If I'm going to be fed false information, I'd rather it be liberal than conservative.
00:09:18
Speaker
She's okay with not getting the entire truth.
00:09:23
Speaker
And what's more, she's literally saying, I'm okay with being lied to as long as it goes along with my feelings, my accepted lies, and as long as I don't have to engage critical thinking.
00:09:35
Speaker
She is indeed saying this.
00:09:38
Speaker
Don't think for one second that mainstream media doesn't know this.
00:09:44
Speaker
They know this, and they know that this is prevalent today.
00:09:47
Speaker
As a way of thinking in amateur nation.
00:09:52
Speaker
And they know as long as they pander to young feelings.
00:09:57
Speaker
They got these humans for life.
Youth Naivety and American Trivia
00:10:01
Speaker
A woman, any person who thinks like her, will have nothing but a life of regret from bad choices and letting life wash over them, assuming they have no control over their lives, no choices, and thus nothing is their fault.
00:10:17
Speaker
Why do they do that for?
00:10:19
Speaker
Because they're stupid, that's why.
00:10:21
Speaker
You might be saying, well, Lou, they're young.
00:10:23
Speaker
That's their opinions.
00:10:24
Speaker
As they get older, they'll get it.
00:10:26
Speaker
Maybe they're not stupid, they're just naive.
00:10:30
Speaker
Even if they do get it, by then, it'll be too late.
00:10:35
Speaker
Okay, I saved the best for last.
00:10:36
Speaker
Let's just try some good old-fashioned trivia about America.
00:10:40
Speaker
Go ahead and play it.
00:10:41
Speaker
Do you know who the current vice president is?
00:10:52
Speaker
Can you name three countries in North America?
00:11:15
Speaker
If it's Friday in New York City, then what day of the week is it in Mexico?
Challenges in Electric Vehicle Industry
00:11:30
Speaker
I never get tired of being right.
00:11:32
Speaker
Even car manufacturers know electric vehicles suck.
00:11:38
Speaker
Your headline from businessinsider.com.
00:11:41
Speaker
Jeep's CEO doesn't think there are enough raw materials on earth to meet electric car demand.
00:11:48
Speaker
Even in the future, nothing works!
00:11:49
Speaker
Here's the article.
00:11:51
Speaker
Stellantis' CEO doesn't think there are enough raw materials readily available to meet electric vehicle needs.
00:11:56
Speaker
We know that we need lithium.
00:11:58
Speaker
Carlos Tavares, chief executive of Stellantis, which is Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, Ram, and a bunch more like Fiat, he said this during the automaker's first annual Freedom of Mobility Forum meeting.
00:12:10
Speaker
He said, we know that we are not producing as much as we need.
00:12:15
Speaker
Tavares said the 1.3 billion gas-powered cars on the road need to be replaced with clean mobility.
00:12:21
Speaker
He said that will need a lot of lithium.
00:12:23
Speaker
Adding, not only the lithium may not be enough, but the concentration of the mining of lithium may create other geopolitical issues.
00:12:31
Speaker
Well, let's get going, child slaves.
00:12:35
Speaker
Let's have some action.
00:12:36
Speaker
Let's have some asses wiggling.
00:12:38
Speaker
I want some perfection.
00:12:41
Speaker
The article continues saying that Tavares, long a skeptic of a global transition to electric vehicles, first warned of EV battery and raw material shortages hampering the industry's lofty goals on EVs in May of 2022.
00:12:57
Speaker
For Stellantis specifically, Tavares has said that some of the markets the company operates in just don't make sense for EV sales at the moment, citing problems like affordability and lack of infrastructure.
00:13:10
Speaker
Yeah, just those two minor things.
00:13:12
Speaker
Now here comes a nugget.
00:13:13
Speaker
Tavares said the affordability is not there because the raw materials are scarce and very expensive and I would add very volatile.
00:13:23
Speaker
The article continues saying access to cheaper EVs could only be delayed by these industry dynamics.
00:13:29
Speaker
Still, Tavares has said that the company has big plans for electrification in the next few years.
00:13:35
Speaker
After the U.S.'s Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and France's PSA Group merged to create Stellantis in 2021, the new company said it planned to spend more than $300
00:13:47
Speaker
$35.5 billion on developing an array of plug-in models through 2025.
00:13:51
Speaker
That sounds like a sound business model.
00:13:55
Speaker
You think, ah, we don't have the resources for this.
00:13:58
Speaker
We don't have the infrastructure.
00:14:00
Speaker
People won't buy them because they're too expensive.
00:14:02
Speaker
Let's spend almost $36 billion shoving it down their throats anyway.
00:14:06
Speaker
But wait, there's more.
00:14:09
Speaker
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has emphasized just how much of a challenge getting these materials will be for EV makers.
00:14:17
Speaker
Others, like, remember this company that made the cover of Motor Trend for Vehicle of the Year and then had a recall of every single automobile?
00:14:26
Speaker
Others, like Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe, if I'm saying his name right, have been vocal about the looming shortage of not only lithium, but potentially of much-needed nickel, graphite, and cobalt.
00:14:39
Speaker
Even mining executives have expressed concern that demand for these materials continues to outstrip the current available supply.
00:14:49
Speaker
Question, where is the outrage about the damage to the environment?
00:14:54
Speaker
Where is the outrage for human rights as children and adult slaves mine these volatile, rare minerals?
00:15:03
Speaker
We only care about black slaves from 200 plus years ago in America.
00:15:06
Speaker
I wonder if the great, great, great, is that enough greats?
00:15:09
Speaker
Grandchildren of the battery mineral mining slaves will someday want reparations.

The trans terrorist Nashville shooting is topic number three.
00:15:54
Speaker
There's been an odd shift in human behavior over the last 15 plus years.
00:15:58
Speaker
A sense of entitlement.
00:16:00
Speaker
A constant need for attention.
00:16:02
Speaker
Ironically coupled with the need to be left alone.
00:16:04
Speaker
A desire to be treated the same as everyone else.
00:16:07
Speaker
Stupidly combined with the mindset of, I'm special, so treat me accordingly.

Topic number three.
00:17:56
Speaker
28-year-old Audrey Elizabeth Hale, who believes she was male, recently went into the Covenant School in Nashville and killed three children and three adults
Nashville Shooting and Media Critique
00:18:06
Speaker
before she was taken down by the good guys with guns.
00:18:12
Speaker
The only thing less shocking than the heinous criminal act itself, in my opinion, is
00:18:19
Speaker
was the asinine, heartless, thoughtless, careless, shameful, hurtful, insensitive, and I'll throw in purposely mean comment by White House Press Secretary Corrine Jean-Pierre when she said, Our hearts go out to the trans community as they are under attack right now.
00:18:46
Speaker
With total respect to the innocent victims.
00:18:50
Speaker
The bigger picture.
00:18:52
Speaker
Since she's a transgendered female, why no mention of that in mainstream media?
00:19:00
Speaker
Because if they admit that she's a biological woman, then they have to admit that they know what a woman is and can't push the toxic masculinity narrative.
00:19:14
Speaker
Just mention the guns.
00:19:18
Speaker
Not the mental health issues of the transgendered person, especially the ones who are simply suckered into being trendy.
00:19:26
Speaker
Someone recently posted a photo of a person, and I can't tell their sex because they bravely are wearing a baseball cap, a hoodie, mirrored sunglasses, and a mask while wearing a shirt that says, Trans Rights or Else.
00:19:42
Speaker
And it has pictures of a shotgun and an AR-15.
00:19:46
Speaker
A, I thought amateur nation was against guns.
00:19:49
Speaker
B, so killing with guns for your beliefs is okay if you really feel it.
00:19:55
Speaker
And C, and this is the biggest one, what rights exactly do trans people not have?
00:20:01
Speaker
Well, we're waiting.
00:20:07
Speaker
They can get loans.
00:20:08
Speaker
They're not discriminated against in any way.
00:20:11
Speaker
They can buy a home, rent a car, rent a house, rent an apartment.
00:20:15
Speaker
What, because people make fun?
00:20:17
Speaker
Because people don't agree with their lifestyle?
00:20:20
Speaker
Because they won't go along with their mental illness?
00:20:23
Speaker
Won't vocalize their precious pronouns?
00:20:26
Speaker
No, what the trendy trans people want is special acknowledgement, special privileges, and the recognition that they invented a new gender and or genders.
00:20:38
Speaker
And now they're throwing illegal, violent temper tantrums and fits about it.
00:20:48
Speaker
Not going to happen.
00:20:52
Speaker
They can put it in kids' books all they want.
00:20:54
Speaker
You can make all the cartoons all you want.
00:20:56
Speaker
They can post their little TikTok videos all they want.
00:21:01
Speaker
Because of your favorite god, amateur nation, science.
00:21:04
Speaker
The human brain is fiendishly complex.
00:21:07
Speaker
It's all neurons and electricity and mushy parts.
00:21:10
Speaker
In other t-shirt news, on Amazon, I see a shirt that is written in rainbow script, of course, and it says, there are more than two genders.
00:21:19
Speaker
with 12 of them showcased with varying symbols.
00:21:22
Speaker
Here's the best part.
00:21:23
Speaker
It reads, fit type, men.
00:21:27
Speaker
And it comes in men's sizes only.
00:21:31
Speaker
But back to the tragedy in Nashville.
00:21:35
Speaker
Here comes the ever-important Hollywood opinion, starting with Josh Gad.
00:21:43
Speaker
He did a voice on Disney's Frozen, so of course this child grooming company has to apply pressure to the mediocre talent types like Josh Gad, who sold their souls to Hollywood.
00:21:52
Speaker
Josh Gad's net worth?
00:21:55
Speaker
We live in a world where Josh Gad is worth $14 million, and I bet 80% of America couldn't pick this Jack Black wannabe in a lineup.
00:22:04
Speaker
in an effort to stave off a lifetime of wedgies.
00:22:09
Speaker
This genius said the mass shooting was the Republican Party's fault.
00:22:14
Speaker
Apparently, no one has self-responsibility anymore.
00:22:18
Speaker
Here comes one of the dumbest and frankly insensitive statements to a tragedy in a long time.
00:22:22
Speaker
He said the GOP have decided that guns are more important than kids.
00:22:27
Speaker
They have decided it is okay to let kids die.
00:22:30
Speaker
Yes, I think you're stupid.
00:22:32
Speaker
I think you're an asshole.
00:22:34
Speaker
That deserved back-to-back drops.
00:22:36
Speaker
You are a shithead.
00:22:38
Speaker
Since we're now blaming inanimate objects for crime, we now shall blame cars for killing other motorists and pedestrians, knives for stabbing people.
Public Figures' Reactions to Shootings
00:22:48
Speaker
Josh Gad doubled down.
00:22:50
Speaker
There are no two ways to look at this situation.
00:22:53
Speaker
Oh, well, discussion over.
00:22:55
Speaker
Josh Gad has spoken.
00:22:58
Speaker
Funny how he left out the part where this murdering amateur left behind a manifesto.
00:23:03
Speaker
Why won't mainstream media release it?
00:23:06
Speaker
Must be something in that that hurts the trans narrative.
00:23:09
Speaker
You see, pros aren't afraid of the truth, even when it hurts.
00:23:14
Speaker
Guns are not the problem, of course.
00:23:16
Speaker
Rampant mental illness is.
00:23:18
Speaker
If you honestly think that if guns magically disappeared, then the violently mentally ill people wouldn't find another way to assault innocent people, then you're stupider than you look.
00:23:29
Speaker
Yes, but it wouldn't be as easy to kill people with the pull of a trigger.
00:23:32
Speaker
Right, and it wouldn't be as easy to put them down when they still commit a violent act.
00:23:37
Speaker
Oh, but we could use other ways to restrain them.
00:23:40
Speaker
Help the poor oppressed criminal.
00:23:43
Speaker
They're so misunderstood.
00:23:46
Speaker
while the cops would be the only ones with guns.
00:23:49
Speaker
Ah, and criminals would never get their hands on illegal guns.
00:23:52
Speaker
Besides, I thought you wanted to defund the police.
00:23:56
Speaker
Wait until Mr. Celebrity Status needs security on his privileged walk on the red carpet.
00:24:01
Speaker
You see, this short-sightedness blathered by sheltered, privileged, wealthy, uneducated nobodies is also a problem.
00:24:07
Speaker
Yes, he does have a right to his opinion and speak out and reveal his ignorance and stupidity.
00:24:13
Speaker
Now I can add this amateur to the boycott list.
00:24:17
Speaker
The best part, of course, is pro-nation's take.
00:24:21
Speaker
Let's start with Candace Owens.
00:24:23
Speaker
I would start with the fact that we now celebrate clinical insanity while we admonish normalcy.
00:24:30
Speaker
People are aspiring to mental illness because they receive attention and oft times awarded for perversity.
00:24:40
Speaker
He said, it's a shame that we so often overuse the term hero because that body cam footage shows what true heroism looks like.
00:24:47
Speaker
Those officers ran right into the sound of the gunfire without hesitation.
00:24:51
Speaker
Absolutely awe-inspiring.
00:24:54
Speaker
This post from Point Blank America.
00:24:57
Speaker
We defend our president with guns.
00:24:59
Speaker
We defend our celebrities, like Josh Gad, with guns.
00:25:03
Speaker
We defend our banks, our courts, our jewelry stores, sporting events, and music festivals with guns.
00:25:08
Speaker
We defend our children with a sign that reads, this is a gun-free zone, and then call someone with a gun to come and help in an emergency.
00:25:17
Speaker
Did you hear that, Josh Gad?
00:25:20
Speaker
And one of my favorites, D.C.
00:25:22
Speaker
Drano, said this, just remember, when a trans terrorist started killing kids at a Christian school, nobody called a social worker or a feminist to save the day.
00:25:30
Speaker
They called in some toxic masculinity with AR-15s.
00:25:36
Speaker
And finally, forget whether you believe in the Bible or not.
00:25:40
Speaker
Here's a verse of common sense.
00:25:43
Speaker
The foundation of this show, as Charlie Prio posted on Facebook, a rock in bad hands killed Abel.
00:25:51
Speaker
A rock in good hands killed Goliath.
00:25:55
Speaker
It's not about the rock.
00:25:57
Speaker
Well, that's not in the Bible, but it should be.
00:26:00
Speaker
Well, I'm paraphrasing.
00:26:09
Speaker
Okay, little snack-sized tidbits, bite-sized morsels.
00:26:14
Speaker
This is a la carte.
00:26:17
Speaker
10 things not to say when someone says I love you for the first time.
00:26:31
Speaker
Give me one good reason why.
00:26:34
Speaker
Well, that's your opinion.
00:26:36
Speaker
Once again, 10 things not to say when someone says I love you for the first time.
00:26:41
Speaker
Number six, wrong.
00:26:43
Speaker
Number seven, so do a lot of people.
00:26:46
Speaker
Number eight, and number nine, are you still here?
00:26:53
Speaker
And number 10, oh, goody.
00:26:56
Speaker
Bill Gates is pushing for 3D printed meat and it's literally the same thing as the EV hoax.
00:27:03
Speaker
EVs are being pushed because climate change.
00:27:06
Speaker
All of a sudden overpopulation and cows are public enemy number one.
00:27:10
Speaker
What do these hoaxes have in common?
00:27:12
Speaker
Creating a false panic in an effort to force you to buy EVs and eat disgusting artificial meat.
00:27:18
Speaker
This isn't about saving the planet.
00:27:20
Speaker
It's about hoarding for the uber rich, killing off the scum and making money off the remaining scum.
00:27:25
Speaker
Cow farts are killing the planet, but what about the pollution created at the manufacturing plants that will create the machines that will make the fake meat?
00:27:33
Speaker
And you can bet your ass the fake meat will all of a sudden be tainted and illness and death will follow.
00:27:39
Speaker
Nature always wins.
00:27:44
Speaker
Why don't we hear any male professional athletes saying that it's okay for trans men to compete against women in sports?
00:27:51
Speaker
Answer, because they know it's wrong.
00:27:53
Speaker
But ironically, they have no balls.
00:27:56
Speaker
Where's Michael Phelps speaking out against Leah Thomas?
00:27:59
Speaker
And since there is no difference between men and women anymore, where are the women transitioning to men to compete in men's sports?
00:28:08
Speaker
Liberals are such amateurs that Scientologists are saying, well, at least we're not that.
00:28:14
Speaker
How about this quote from Lord Anthony Keebler L. Fauci?
00:28:18
Speaker
They're Republicans.
00:28:19
Speaker
They don't like being told what to do.
00:28:21
Speaker
We need to break that.
00:28:23
Speaker
Finally, this asshole said something factual.
00:28:26
Speaker
The downside is, by definition, you're admitting that Democrats like being told what to do.
00:28:31
Speaker
But sadly, that's also factual.
00:28:33
Speaker
Now, take a big step back and literally fuck your own face!
00:28:40
Speaker
That's what Chris Rock got paid for his lackluster performance on Netflix.
00:28:45
Speaker
You can't tell me that was even a $1 million effort.
00:28:48
Speaker
I understand he's getting paid for it to be seen all over the world in perpetuity, but $40 million for that performance?
00:28:56
Speaker
This is how Hollywood ensnares people and destroys their souls and values.
00:29:01
Speaker
I'll admit, Chris Rock is 40 times funnier than me.
00:29:04
Speaker
Thus, my new rate for one hour of stand-up comedy is $1 million.
00:29:10
Speaker
NASA released an audio clip of a supermassive black hole located 250 million light years away, as opposed to those regular sized black holes about a million light years away.
00:29:23
Speaker
Go ahead and play the audio.
00:29:32
Speaker
That was just audio from my ex-girlfriend, Sol.
00:29:36
Speaker
I guess we're assuming that this whole black hole audio thing is real.
00:29:40
Speaker
It's a bajillion, hillion light years away.
00:29:42
Speaker
We'll take your word for it, science, from the people who brought you COVID and COVID treatments.
00:29:47
Speaker
Science isn't an exact science.
00:29:50
Speaker
Here's a conversation that has never and will never happen.
00:29:53
Speaker
You see your friend Bill.
00:29:55
Speaker
Hey, man, what's the matter, Bill?
00:29:59
Speaker
How did this happen?
00:30:02
Speaker
Bill, I have some good news.
00:30:05
Speaker
Ah, thank the Lord that there are three things that I can find every week that are done right.
00:30:10
Speaker
These are three pro things.
00:30:13
Speaker
This podcast, if you haven't figured it out by now, thrives on, seeks, lives by, and preaches common sense because it's the easiest thing to remember and live by.
00:30:23
Speaker
As I've said before in this show many times, common sense is what we have when we don't need science.
00:30:28
Speaker
Common sense supersedes feelings.
00:30:31
Speaker
And common sense is almost always backed up by facts.
00:30:35
Speaker
This 100% common sense repost from Sherry Brown Bettinger on Instagram.
00:30:41
Speaker
Things that make no sense in 2022.
00:30:43
Speaker
Black lives matter.
00:30:46
Speaker
except in the womb.
00:30:48
Speaker
Women's rights are human rights, but no one, not one person can define what a woman actually is.
00:30:55
Speaker
We are told to trust the science, but denied basic biology.
Complexities of Identity Terminology
00:31:22
Speaker
From the must-see documentary Uncle Tom 2, this gentleman by the name of Vadi Bacham, I hope I'm saying his name correctly, Bacham, B-A-U-C-H-A-M, described in his bio as a pastor, professor, author, husband, father, and grandfather, and a proud American currently living, learning, and serving in Lusaka, Zambia.
00:31:44
Speaker
That last part is important because he's an American living in an African country, and thus...
00:31:50
Speaker
There have been several iterations.
00:31:52
Speaker
Colored, Negro, Black, Afro-American.
00:31:55
Speaker
We have to define ourselves as groups.
00:31:58
Speaker
We have to hyphenize ourselves.
00:32:00
Speaker
The African-American one is just horrible.
00:32:02
Speaker
We're inconsistent with it.
00:32:03
Speaker
For example, if somebody comes from Morocco or from Libya, we don't call them an African-American.
00:32:08
Speaker
We're only talking about people from Sub-Saharan Africa.
00:32:11
Speaker
Charlize Theron is South African.
00:32:14
Speaker
No, because she's white, but she's from Africa.
00:32:17
Speaker
Yeah, but her ancestors are not

Media Inaction on Political Scandals
00:32:52
Speaker
There are 459 potential crimes documented in the Biden laptop.
00:32:58
Speaker
140 business crimes, 191 sexual crimes, and 128 narcotics crimes.
00:33:05
Speaker
Yet the media has ignored it, and the FBI has done little more than conceal the evidence behind the veil of an active investigation.
00:33:13
