Honoring Fallen Military Heroes
00:00:00
Speaker
The Honor and Remember Flag is a nationally recognized symbol that sends a message of appreciation for the sacrifice made by our fallen heroes and their families.
00:00:10
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.

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

Introduction to 'Amateur Nation' Podcast
00:01:48
Speaker
Welcome to the show.
00:01:51
Speaker
Okay, let's all shut up, please.
00:01:53
Speaker
Warning.
00:01:54
Speaker
The podcast you are about to hear is often based on true events and people.
00:01:59
Speaker
It chronicles the dialogue and actions of random, anonymous, obnoxious, self-entitled, unintelligent, self-centered idiots.
00:02:06
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.
00:02:16
Speaker
In one word, amateurs.
00:02:18
Speaker
Amateurs.
00:02:19
Speaker
It's Amateur Nation with Lou Santini.
00:02:22
Speaker
What are you, a pro?
00:02:24
Speaker
No, I'm an amateur.
00:02:26
Speaker
Both are welcome here, but fair warning, we call attention to and call out the amateurs, the people who are doing life wrong, the speed bumps of life, the people that are in your way every day, 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.
00:02:52
Speaker
Hi, Mom.
00:02:52
Speaker
Oh, hey, Lou.
00:02:53
Speaker
Amateur Nation.
00:02:54
Speaker
It's not just a podcast.
00:02:55
Speaker
It's a movement.
00:02:57
Speaker
This is episode
Discussion on American Values
00:02:58
Speaker
273.
00:02:58
Speaker
Leftists aren't American.
00:03:03
Speaker
On today's episode, left equals commie.
00:03:07
Speaker
And where are all the empowered women speaking out against men playing pretend?
00:03:11
Speaker
And when is taxpaying middle class legal American citizens day?
00:03:15
Speaker
Then a bit more gluttony in the form of anti-amateur bites in the a la carte segment.
00:03:19
Speaker
Then we close the show with three things done right on three pro things.
00:03:24
Speaker
Shouts out to ProNation first.
00:03:26
Speaker
Shouts out to JNG1954 and Ava8886 on Truth Social.
00:03:31
Speaker
And Lynn Grimm, Stephen Goldstein, David Kaye, Aaron Pettacruger, Clarissa Schreiner-Albatron, Christy Crockett, Westside Ken, Crackpots Comedy Club, Kevin Charles, and Corrine Pauly on Facebook.
00:03:44
Speaker
Jimmy Bartley, Claydo17, Elena Davidson, Lessons from Top G, Sean Burkholder, Chris Golian, Cole Young, Jimmy Honeycutt, and Marcella Ruiz on Instagram.
00:03:56
Speaker
And the most special shout out to my loving, no longer coughing mother, Mary, in Canal Fulton, Ohio, as it was her birthday on April 8th.
00:04:05
Speaker
Mom's been sick with some kind of cold and cough for the better part of March, and I'm happy to report she's back to her 100% sarcastic self.
00:04:12
Speaker
Hi, ass face.
00:04:13
Speaker
Yeah.
00:04:13
Speaker
She's all better.
00:04:16
Speaker
Your pro post of the week from farm girl Carrie on Truth Social, this.
00:04:22
Speaker
If you believe that a man who never committed a felony in 77 years suddenly turned around and committed 91 felonies, you're probably a brainwashed Democrat.
00:04:37
Speaker
A leftist.
00:04:38
Speaker
A commie.
00:04:40
Speaker
Here's what's happening in Amateur Nation.
00:04:41
Speaker
As we go a little something like this, hit it!
00:04:44
Speaker
Step one.
00:04:45
Speaker
Topic number one.
00:04:48
Speaker
In an effort to be eye-catching, I usually try to come up with episode titles that are funny, catchy, controversial, and by that I mean honest or in line with the show's theme or ideally a combination of any of the aforementioned.
00:05:01
Speaker
Now this one was easy.
00:05:03
Speaker
Of course, this show is full of contributions sent and or found by alert pros, and I stumbled upon a post by WatchChad on Instagram that simply read, Leftists aren't American.
00:05:14
Speaker
Change my mind.
00:05:16
Speaker
I can't.
00:05:16
Speaker
And won't.
00:05:17
Speaker
Because I agree.
00:05:19
Speaker
And we get more and more evidence of it daily.
00:05:22
Speaker
Daily.
00:05:23
Speaker
Don't tell me Democrats and or leftists and or liberals, however you want to describe this commie group.
00:05:28
Speaker
But every day we're seeing more and more evidence of the left going out of their way to offend, decry, mock, denounce, and or destroy American institutions, holidays, history, values, and freedoms.
00:05:42
Speaker
Did you know not a single Democrat in Congress agreed that only American citizens should vote in our federal elections?
00:05:52
Speaker
Now, why would that be?
00:05:54
Speaker
I've been to many foreign countries.
00:05:57
Speaker
Never once did it even occur to me to say, well, I've landed in Spain.
00:06:01
Speaker
I guess I'm a Spanish citizen now.
00:06:03
Speaker
Time to go vote.
00:06:06
Speaker
Only America pulls that crap.
00:06:08
Speaker
Just listen to the three pro things segment from last week's episode and you'll get the obvious answer.
00:06:13
Speaker
It's called stacking the deck by buying votes.
00:06:18
Speaker
That's why they want to allow non-citizens to vote in federal elections.
00:06:26
Speaker
That would be bribery.
00:06:28
Speaker
That would be election interference, fraud, treason.
00:06:32
Speaker
For the amateurs who say, and believe me, I hear it said a bunch of different ways.
00:06:36
Speaker
Republicans are racist.
00:06:38
Speaker
The first, easiest, least thought out, hit the buzzer answer.
00:06:43
Speaker
Then we have, well, America was founded by immigrants.
00:06:47
Speaker
Your grandparents were probably immigrants.
00:06:50
Speaker
Yes, and they came here from Italy, in the case of my birth father's family, with little.
00:06:55
Speaker
They became citizens and contributed and adapted to America.
00:07:03
Speaker
Then pros hear the, what are you so afraid of?
00:07:05
Speaker
What, because they're not white?
00:07:06
Speaker
If they were coming from Canada, you wouldn't care.
00:07:09
Speaker
If you ask me, I think America's building a wall on the wrong border.
00:07:14
Speaker
I got news for you.
00:07:15
Speaker
Anyone sneaking in from China is also suspect now.
00:07:20
Speaker
But yes, I and real taxpaying American citizens do care.
00:07:25
Speaker
about the quality and lack thereof of scumbags crossing our borders by force and by illegal means.
00:07:31
Speaker
These aren't our hardworking ancestors saving what little money they could scrape together and traveling by boat for weeks or months.
00:07:38
Speaker
These are hardened gang members and repeat felons released by South American prisons, usually arriving to dive into human trafficking and or their drug dealing enterprise.
00:07:51
Speaker
Funny how these deadbeats are all too happy to take the freebies and handouts that they did not earn.
00:07:57
Speaker
Unlike your grandparents who worked and saved and had pride in a work ethic.
00:08:00
Speaker
So what are Americans so afraid of?
00:08:02
Speaker
Being attacked, robbed, or murdered by someone with no paper trail or skin in the game to stay in America.
00:08:07
Speaker
Getting attacked, robbed, or murdered by someone who will post no money bail and be out on the streets the same day.
00:08:13
Speaker
The tax cost of handling these losers.
00:08:16
Speaker
Having my house squatted in if I'm gone for the weekend with little legal recourse.
00:08:21
Speaker
If you're of the mindset that, well, there's room for everybody, then A, you take them.
00:08:27
Speaker
Oh, virtue signaling commie.
00:08:29
Speaker
And B, as I said before on this show, if you're at your job and a stranger just waltzed into your Monday morning staff meeting and the boss says, excuse me, who are you?
00:08:38
Speaker
I want to work here.
00:08:39
Speaker
So I just showed up.
00:08:40
Speaker
That's not how life works.
00:08:43
Speaker
You crash a random staff meeting and you'll have wasted all those employees' time and money dealing with you, calling security, maybe there's a tussle, and then worrying about securing the building better and additional expense.
00:08:56
Speaker
Now, apply that to an entire country.
00:08:59
Speaker
What, because you think there's some open land in Montana, there's room for everybody?
00:09:03
Speaker
Yeah, that's not up for grabs for anyone who wanders in.
00:09:06
Speaker
You want to live in America?
00:09:07
Speaker
Have no criminal record, learn English, take the citizenship test, pay a fine, get a job, and earn your keep.
00:09:14
Speaker
The very idea that this has to be said in this podcast and all over America, repeatedly on the news, on social media, and everyday life is shocking to me.
00:09:23
Speaker
As alert pro Drexel Lay on Facebook said, give a man to fish and he eats for a day.
00:09:28
Speaker
Give a man a welfare check, a free phone, food stamps, Section 8 housing, a six-pack of beer, a crack pipe, and some Air Jordans that'll vote Democrat the rest of his life.
00:09:37
Speaker
Alert Pro Mike McMartin on Facebook posted a great meme showing Barack Okami with this caption.
00:09:43
Speaker
Keep in mind that Democrats voted to fine American citizens for not buying insurance and then conspired to give it to illegal aliens for free.
00:09:55
Speaker
Leftists aren't American.
00:09:59
Speaker
What's the matter, amateurs?
Criticism of Entitlement Culture
00:10:00
Speaker
Too harsh?
00:10:00
Speaker
Too real?
00:10:01
Speaker
Too factual?
00:10:01
Speaker
Hard to hear?
00:10:02
Speaker
Racist somehow?
00:10:03
Speaker
You want to play the part?
00:10:04
Speaker
Dress the part.
00:10:05
Speaker
Dress for the job you want, right?
00:10:07
Speaker
You want the job?
00:10:07
Speaker
And trust me, illegal aliens, being American is a full-time job since the American middle class does 95% of the heavy lifting in this country for the wealthy and poor drains on society like you amateurs wandering in like pests.
00:10:20
Speaker
Americans do indeed have values.
00:10:22
Speaker
You hear about American values.
00:10:24
Speaker
Hard work, freedom of speech, religion, freedom to protect oneself, taking care of your own backyard, but still looking out for your neighbor.
00:10:32
Speaker
Amateurs reply with, but those values need to change.
00:10:36
Speaker
Why?
00:10:37
Speaker
What's wrong with anything I just said?
00:10:40
Speaker
Why wouldn't amateurs want those things?
00:10:45
Speaker
They do.
00:10:46
Speaker
They just don't want you to have those things so they feel better about their bad, lazy, entitled life choices.
00:10:55
Speaker
They want the same things you do.
00:10:57
Speaker
They just don't know it or will admit to it.
00:11:00
Speaker
It makes amateurs crazy to know that just like pros, conservatives, they like to be left alone.
00:11:07
Speaker
They like keeping most of their money.
00:11:08
Speaker
They like safety.
00:11:09
Speaker
They like the freedoms to protect themselves, speak freely, and move about society without being tracked and traced.
00:11:16
Speaker
But...
00:11:17
Speaker
amateurs also want special treatment for everyone they don't like.
00:11:22
Speaker
And the problem is, it's the majority of America, white Christian heterosexuals.
00:11:27
Speaker
They don't care that they already have the same rights and privileges as white Christian heterosexuals.
00:11:32
Speaker
They want to keep those same rights, get more special treatment in the form of free stuff, free money and special recognition.
00:11:38
Speaker
And then...
00:11:40
Speaker
as a punishment that they think they've earned the right to dole out, take away the rights and freedoms we've had since 1776.
00:11:49
Speaker
I know, it's all Trump's fault.
00:11:52
Speaker
You can't possibly think America is better now under President Coloring Book, can you?
00:11:57
Speaker
Alert Pro at Michaela Rose J posted, BLM did not start under Trump.
00:12:03
Speaker
It started under Obama.
00:12:05
Speaker
The war on police didn't start under Trump.
00:12:09
Speaker
It started under Obama.
00:12:11
Speaker
This racial tension did not start under Trump.
00:12:14
Speaker
It started under Obama.
00:12:15
Speaker
Obama emboldened this hate through his administration.
00:12:19
Speaker
And now we're paying the cost.
00:12:23
Speaker
Amateurs think change for the sake of change is good.
00:12:26
Speaker
Forgetting that this country is approaching 250 years of independence from England.
00:12:30
Speaker
You hate colonialism, amateur nation?
00:12:32
Speaker
Hey, dum-dums, that's why we left England.
00:12:35
Speaker
We declared ourselves separate from their tyranny.
00:12:37
Speaker
And we will do it again, if necessary.
00:12:41
Speaker
Despite almost daily proof of election fraud on the state and federal levels coming to light, despite the documentary 2,000 Mules showing video and printed proof of election fraud, Amateur Nation is still with stolen election.
00:12:55
Speaker
Just let it go.
00:12:56
Speaker
Get past it.
00:12:57
Speaker
Oh, you mean like when someone gets your idiotic pronouns wrong?
00:13:01
Speaker
You know, we overthrew the government once before, we can do it again.
00:13:06
Speaker
And no, I'm not suggesting we do it with one single bit of violence.
00:13:10
Speaker
You know why?
00:13:12
Speaker
Because in the same way that we overthrew the government the first time where we declared ourselves separate from England and we had to use brute force and guns and war and we had no technology, now we have technology.
00:13:25
Speaker
Information.
00:13:27
Speaker
the internet, social media, etc., and a nation of journalists in the form of simple American tax-paying legal citizens who happen to have phones, providing proof of governmental corruption, proof in the form of audio, video, print, all at our disposal to overthrow the government from within in the very same way.
00:13:50
Speaker
Commies are trying to destroy America from within.
00:13:52
Speaker
We can save it in the same way.
00:13:56
Speaker
And sure, amateur nation won't have to fire a single shot to try to take over America and force it into communism.
00:14:03
Speaker
Neither will we.
00:14:06
Speaker
If you know something about a corrupt commie doing something illegal, blow the whistle.
00:14:11
Speaker
Know something?
00:14:12
Speaker
See something?
00:14:13
Speaker
Say something.
00:14:15
Speaker
After all, founding father Thomas Jefferson nailed it.
00:14:18
Speaker
When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.
00:14:22
Speaker
When the government fears the people...
00:14:25
Speaker
There is liberty.
00:14:27
Speaker
As Jack Posobiec on Instagram said, power without ethics is tyranny.
00:14:32
Speaker
Ethics without power is delusion.
00:14:37
Speaker
That's amateur nation on both sides.
00:14:40
Speaker
Oh, by the way, transcripts confirm that the January 6th committee lied about President Trump attacking Secret Service.
00:14:48
Speaker
But you pros know that.
00:14:49
Speaker
This is the kind of tyranny Jefferson is talking about.
00:14:52
Speaker
Cover-ups, lies, injustices, false arrests, censorship, witch hunts, harassment, you know, tyranny.
00:15:02
Speaker
Do you know what kind of reputation Americans will have if we had to overthrow the ruling class a second time?
00:15:09
Speaker
Amen to that, brother!
00:15:11
Speaker
Woo!
00:15:12
Speaker
We would be the envy of the planet.
00:15:19
Speaker
You want more reminders of the destructive power of the left?
00:15:22
Speaker
Here is a partial list, partial list of amateur nations hit and distract approach to America's downfall.
00:15:29
Speaker
God bless alert pros because while I have my own list that is pretty similar to his, at Steve Loves Ammo on Instagram posted this list.

00:17:02

00:17:12
Speaker
All the transgender active shooters.
00:17:15
Speaker
The list goes on and on.
00:17:18
Speaker
Leftists aren't American.
00:17:23
Speaker
Here comes some more common sense from ProNation.
00:17:25
Speaker
Sassafras84 on Instagram said, Can anybody explain why people keep voting Democrat?
00:17:31
Speaker
Do they like high crime?
00:17:33
Speaker
Do they like inflation?
00:17:34
Speaker
Do they enjoy raised taxes?
00:17:36
Speaker
Their cities are a mess.
00:17:38
Speaker
Their resources are being taken over by illegals.
00:17:40
Speaker
They're being displaced.
00:17:42
Speaker
Why do they keep voting Democrat?
00:17:45
Speaker
Because they're not.
00:17:46
Speaker
They're commies.
00:17:47
Speaker
And this is the closest way they can vote.
00:17:50
Speaker
Many don't even know they're commies.
00:17:52
Speaker
They're just trying to do what their friends do in an effort to be popular or not hassled.
00:17:56
Speaker
They've resigned themselves to being secretly morally bankrupt Americans, smiling and working on the outside, hiding in shame on the inside, knowing they sold themselves out and their country.
Admiration for Drag Racing Pioneer
00:18:08
Speaker
And now this.
00:18:09
Speaker
And now for step two.
00:18:11
Speaker
Topic number two.
00:18:14
Speaker
As you may know, if you're a regular listener of this show, I'm a huge NHRA fan, the National Hot Rod Association.
00:18:19
Speaker
Drag racing is my favorite sport.
00:18:22
Speaker
In fact, you could read an article I wrote a couple years ago that made the cover of National Dragster and the NHRA.com website.
00:18:28
Speaker
The first time ever a fan had an article printed, let alone made the cover.
00:18:34
Speaker
Thank you very much.
00:18:35
Speaker
Type in a search bar, fan perspective, 70 reasons why NHRA drag racing is the best sport on earth.
00:18:44
Speaker
Also, if you know me, you know that three-time Top Fuel World Champion Shirley Muldowney is my favorite figure in all of sports.
00:18:50
Speaker
I love her story, how she was a pioneer, the first to do so much in the sport, and also her toughness after suffering many crashes in her lifetime.
00:18:58
Speaker
She came up during the, well, let's just call it what it is, less safe era of drag racing, where we have much safer roll cages and other emergency systems in place now.
00:19:08
Speaker
Recently, I watched a great one-hour documentary on FS2 called Shirley, which chronicled her life's accomplishments and breakthroughs of the world of drag racing.
00:19:19
Speaker
Now, she's known as the first lady of drag racing, truly breaking down barriers and literally racing against an entire field of competitors that were solely men.
00:19:29
Speaker
Now the NHRA is full of female drivers and riders.
00:19:31
Speaker
In the documentary, Shirley mentions how back in the day, in the 60s and 70s, when she was racing and starting out and winning and beating the biggest names in drag racing, including Big Daddy Don Garlitz, she didn't get support from female fans.
00:20:00
Speaker
Surprised?
00:20:02
Speaker
All I've heard from the last 15 years or so, the rise of amateur nation, are words like empowerment, support women, uplift women, women's voices must be heard, etc.
00:20:15
Speaker
Strap yourselves in because here comes some politically incorrect stuff I'm about to throw down.
00:20:20
Speaker
Why would you be surprised?
00:20:24
Speaker
That's Shirley Muldowney, the first woman to be licensed in Top Fuel, the pinnacle, the fastest thing on four wheels in the world.
00:20:32
Speaker
The first woman to win in Top Fuel.
00:20:35
Speaker
The first woman to be world champion in Top Fuel in a sport dominated and run by men.
00:20:40
Speaker
Why would you be surprised that female fans would show her no love and support back then?
00:20:47
Speaker
Let me be clear.
00:20:48
Speaker
I'm not saying women aren't or can't be supportive.
00:20:51
Speaker
I have a supportive mother and girlfriend.
00:20:53
Speaker
And of course, there are women in the world everywhere that support their close female friends and female family members.
00:21:00
Speaker
I'm saying, have you not heard how catty women can be?
00:21:04
Speaker
towards women they don't know.
00:21:07
Speaker
The backstabbing, the maliciousness.
00:21:10
Speaker
In fact, I was just watching an episode of Family Guy that addressed that very subject.
00:21:14
Speaker
Do men talk behind each other's backs?
00:21:16
Speaker
Of course.
00:21:16
Speaker
Do they backstab, steal, undermine each other, and act jealous?
00:21:20
Speaker
Of course.
00:21:20
Speaker
We're acting like a little bitch.
00:21:22
Speaker
But let me ask you this first question.
00:21:24
Speaker
Do you see men as a group?
00:21:27
Speaker
constantly mentioning that we need to support men more.
00:21:31
Speaker
Believe all men.
00:21:32
Speaker
Do you see men starting organizations to support men that they don't know?
00:21:37
Speaker
Do men have days, weeks, and months to celebrate?
00:21:42
Speaker
Men, no.
00:21:45
Speaker
And I'd like to think most men are okay with it.
00:21:50
Speaker
An amateur nation can argue all they want.
00:21:52
Speaker
Well, that's because men have it so easy.
00:21:54
Speaker
Ask any man.
00:21:55
Speaker
We don't.
00:21:57
Speaker
It's just another attack on toxic masculinity.
00:22:00
Speaker
It's a barrage of daily attacks on mainstream media and social media about how horrible we men are.
00:22:06
Speaker
And yet no commercials or PSAs or charities or days of recognition of men who simply get it done.
00:22:11
Speaker
Pay their bills, support their families, work hard, pay taxes, protect loved ones.
00:22:16
Speaker
Prostate cancer is more rampant than breast cancer, and yet no ribbons worn in the major sports leagues during an entire month.
00:22:22
Speaker
Sports leagues filled with the most masculine men on the planet, with 100% male rosters, no less.
00:22:29
Speaker
But instead, these men wear pink on their uniforms during an entire month for breast cancer awareness.
00:22:35
Speaker
Why are you Satan?
00:22:37
Speaker
I know.
00:22:38
Speaker
I hate women.
00:22:38
Speaker
That's exactly what I said.
00:22:40
Speaker
Rather, that's what amateurs will take away from all this.
00:22:43
Speaker
Again, I...
00:22:44
Speaker
I'm not complaining that women get recognition.
00:22:46
Speaker
I'm merely pointing out some major disparity between men and women getting recognition.
00:22:51
Speaker
Men will support their families and fellow male friends that they know personally, but men in general don't feel this need to support other men publicly in a mass social cause.
00:23:02
Speaker
I know, amateurs.
00:23:03
Speaker
That's because men, especially white Christian heterosexual men, have it so easy.
00:23:07
Speaker
I say this with no reservation.
00:23:10
Speaker
Mentally ill, sexuality, gender-confused, pronoun-obsessed millennials, you have zero idea what a day in the life of a white Christian heterosexual male entails.
00:23:19
Speaker
Why?
00:23:20
Speaker
Because we live our lives quietly and are busy doing such.
00:23:25
Speaker
We don't have special days and months and groups and privileges.
00:23:27
Speaker
We're busy paying your bills via taxes, like your college and your minimum wage increases.
00:23:33
Speaker
However, we in ProNation, men and women alike, including all races and sexualities, are very aware of what your day in the life is.
00:23:43
Speaker
Crying.
00:23:44
Speaker
Making TikTok videos of yourself crying.
00:23:46
Speaker
Making demands.
00:23:48
Speaker
Whining how life isn't fair.
00:23:50
Speaker
Playing dress up.
00:23:50
Speaker
Trying to shock the world with your crazy look and new improved gender and sexual identity.
00:23:55
Speaker
That's all you have.
00:23:58
Speaker
There are 145 days each year devoted to LGBTQ crap.
00:24:06
Speaker
Just this week, we had International Asexuality Day and International Day of Pink, you know, to oppose homophobia.
00:24:15
Speaker
Not quite sure how that works.
00:24:16
Speaker
Remember, you can't just have kind thoughts about people.
00:24:19
Speaker
If they don't see it in a social media post or via a ribbon or wearing a color, you have phobias and isms in your life.
00:24:26
Speaker
Don't worry, a mentally ill amateur will assist you shortly.
00:24:29
Speaker
Hey, Butch, what's with the pink?
00:24:31
Speaker
I thought you were a man and hated the gays.
00:24:33
Speaker
Nah, I'd put this pink shirt on and I'm all 180 degrees on them.
00:24:37
Speaker
I never knew you were so enlightened.
00:24:39
Speaker
Maybe we should be gay.
00:24:45
Speaker
40% of the year is devoted to paying special attention to non-biological straight men.
00:24:53
Speaker
I'll say it again, 40% of the year is devoted to paying special attention to non-biological straight men.
00:25:01
Speaker
Don't even think that means the other 60% is a party for us straight men.
00:25:05
Speaker
We just keep our heads down and get shit done.
00:25:07
Speaker
When did everyone get so special?
00:25:10
Speaker
And when did getting special recognition for every person who literally does nothing special but look different get so much attention?
00:25:20
Speaker
So how is it there are women still claiming that women are not heard, seen, acknowledged, and empowered?
00:25:27
Speaker
Whether you celebrate them in any way, it's irrelevant, but the following are real holidays for women.
00:25:36
Speaker
Ready?
00:25:37
Speaker
Start off with the obvious, Mother's Day.

Women's Entrepreneurship Day, National Girl Me Too Day, National Mature Women's Day.

Recognition of Women and Holidays
00:30:30
Speaker
When is women who've had enough of pretend men day?
00:30:36
Speaker
Granted, most of those are silly and or rarely actually celebrated.
00:30:39
Speaker
But the point being with that list, just about every type, race, occupation, and lifestyle of women worldwide are represented, acknowledged, and or celebrated.
00:30:49
Speaker
And again, that was a partial list.
00:30:52
Speaker
Just don't tell this host that women aren't acknowledged and seen.
00:30:56
Speaker
We have entire networks on TV devoted to women.
00:31:00
Speaker
Remakes of perfectly normal, successful movies.
00:31:03
Speaker
What if the cast of Ocean's Eleven was all women?
00:31:06
Speaker
What if Ghostbusters were all women?
00:31:09
Speaker
Hell, ladies' nights at bars.
00:31:10
Speaker
Chivalry.
00:31:11
Speaker
Women have broken through the glass ceiling.
00:31:13
Speaker
An entire league of female basketball players was developed.
00:31:16
Speaker
that no one watches.
00:31:17
Speaker
And it took a man, Brittany Griner, to make it palatable.
00:31:20
Speaker
Remember when you used to hear, she's the first woman to, well, there aren't a lot of those left.
00:31:25
Speaker
Until now, of course, thanks to my next point.
00:31:35
Speaker
Are women not offended by cross-dressers, drag queens, and transgender types like Dylan Mulvaney?
00:31:43
Speaker
Actually, how are women not offended?
00:31:46
Speaker
None of these drag queens look like women.
00:31:48
Speaker
None of them act like women.
00:31:50
Speaker
What, because you're not wearing pants and you put on a giant wig and ridiculous cartoonish makeup?
00:31:54
Speaker
Put a pair of jeans on any of these drag queens and you can leave everything else they're wearing.
00:31:59
Speaker
And they will still look every bit of the men that they are.
00:32:02
Speaker
Not that any of these drag queens look like women or humans.
00:32:05
Speaker
It's like amateur men.
00:32:06
Speaker
And let me be clear.
00:32:07
Speaker
Amateur men said to women, you know what?
00:32:10
Speaker
You don't look like the kind of women we men want you to be.
00:32:13
Speaker
Let a man handle it.
00:32:14
Speaker
We'll take care of it.
00:32:15
Speaker
We'll show you how it's done.
00:32:18
Speaker
And it's done poorly and insultingly.
00:32:20
Speaker
And women should be mad at this.
00:32:22
Speaker
Oh, wait, I can't tell a woman what to do.
00:32:24
Speaker
Rather, aren't women mad at this daily insult?
00:32:27
Speaker
Where's the yelling and the protesting?
00:32:29
Speaker
And the idea that any parent lets these freak shows near their children is even more appalling.
00:32:34
Speaker
Women want to be seen as strong and independent and fierce, but not yet one of them are speaking up, say for a few select collegiate female athletes who have the balls, no pun intended, to speak up because they are being mistreated and denied a living and the athletic recognition that they've earned.
00:32:52
Speaker
As Shane Zettelmeyer on Instagram said, women's sports is becoming a retirement plan for failed male athletes.
00:32:59
Speaker
Girls' sports are a joke.
00:33:02
Speaker
And let's not forget, ladies, the insults of a bony, biological boy prancing around with pink outfits and long hair and poorly applied makeup, passing as a woman, but acting like no woman I've ever seen, but rather an ill-behaved child, getting endorsements, making music videos, and telling you, telling you, what a day in the life of being a woman is.
00:33:21
Speaker
You're not insulted by that?
00:33:23
Speaker
You're not insulted when someone says men can get pregnant, especially if you've gone through the pain of childbirth or lost a child or can't conceive?
00:33:31
Speaker
What do I do now?
00:33:32
Speaker
Give birth?
00:33:33
Speaker
Alert Pro Nate Shumway on Facebook posted a great meme.
00:33:36
Speaker
If a trans man gets an abortion, is that a man deciding what a woman can do with her body?
00:33:43
Speaker
I love making amateurs' heads explode.
00:33:47
Speaker
Well, Lou, are you insulted that Ellen Page thinks she's a man now?
00:33:50
Speaker
No, I just feel sorry for her and her family because she wasn't a very attractive woman and now she's just a freakish looking man.
00:33:57
Speaker
And not a believable one at that.
00:33:59
Speaker
Men might have personal insecurities, but men in general...
00:34:03
Speaker
Don't worry.
00:34:04
Speaker
Well, how will this amateur's mental illness affect all of us?
00:34:07
Speaker
But we do shake our heads and laugh.
00:34:09
Speaker
Sometimes there is pointing because it's earned.
00:34:12
Speaker
Men worry about their image when they personally are attacked.
00:34:15
Speaker
Real men aren't worried about real men's nationwide image because they're men.
00:34:25
Speaker
Sidebar.
00:34:26
Speaker
Attention, amateur nation.
00:34:27
Speaker
If you're part of a group that feels you are maligned, ignored, persecuted, oppressed, or offended, make no mistake, if, by some chance, President Coloring Book is re-elected, you will never hear from this administration supporting you in any way, shape, or form again.
00:34:47
Speaker
you will be dead to them.
00:34:50
Speaker
They will have bought your votes.
00:34:52
Speaker
They got what they wanted from you.
00:34:54
Speaker
Now go die.
00:34:55
Speaker
Because then the real destruction in this country begins.
00:34:58
Speaker
All because you can't stop being whiny little bitches and think the world owes you something because you breathe.

00:36:38
Speaker
I'm ready to go pro.
00:36:39
Speaker
All right, now step three.
00:36:42
Speaker
Topic number three.
00:36:43
Speaker
Hey!
00:36:46
Speaker
Hey, President Coloring Book, you want to slap Americans in the face with Transgender Visibility Day on Easter?
00:36:52
Speaker
Great.
00:36:52
Speaker
Let's recognize all the transgender people who've done mass shootings, or the amateur who will not be named who recently burned down a 117-year-old church in Portland, Oregon, or Dylan Mulvaney who all but bankrupted Bud Light, or the pedo transgender who was hired and fired by Doritos within a day for disturbing pedophilic comments he made on Twitter.
00:37:11
Speaker
Let's all take a day to recognize that.
00:37:14
Speaker
Of course, that doesn't mean all transgender people are bad and or violent, of course.
00:37:18
Speaker
I rarely say all when speaking about groups of people or instances on this show.
00:37:22
Speaker
If I have to disclaimer my language, we won't get anything done.
00:37:25
Speaker
Pros get it, but I'm also trying to wake up any amateurs who might be listening.
00:37:29
Speaker
But I don't see a lot of transgender people curing cancer, helping the homeless, aiding our veterans, or giving back to the community.
00:37:35
Speaker
A community...
00:37:36
Speaker
That gives them special privileges and visibility on an almost daily basis, not to mention Pride Month and various other recognition days throughout the year.
00:37:45
Speaker
What I see is DEI appointments at high political offices, our military, and of course, spokespeople, which has yet to work out for any company.
00:37:54
Speaker
Right?
Recognition for Middle-Class Citizens
00:37:55
Speaker
Dylan Mulvaney?
00:37:55
Speaker
Bust.
00:37:56
Speaker
That Doritos pedo?
00:37:57
Speaker
Bust.
00:37:58
Speaker
Newsflash!
00:37:58
Speaker
Other people exist!
00:38:00
Speaker
When is taxpaying middle-class legal American citizens' day?
00:38:05
Speaker
Oh, that's every day.
00:38:06
Speaker
Yeah, because we pay for all the other special days.
00:38:09
Speaker
Where's our flag, day or week of recognition?
00:38:11
Speaker
Where's our parade?
00:38:13
Speaker
I can see the parade now.
00:38:14
Speaker
Just regular American citizens on floats celebrating things like, look, it's the Families with Two Parents float.
00:38:20
Speaker
A salute to paying your own bills.
00:38:22
Speaker
Hey, I want to stay for the honoring qualified hirees marching band.
00:38:26
Speaker
The Grand Marshal can be someone who has their natural hair color and no face tattoos.
00:38:30
Speaker
The horror.
00:38:40
Speaker
Time now for some lighter bites against amateur nation.
00:38:42
Speaker
This is a la carte.
00:38:45
Speaker
Emperor Gavin, someone check the back of my ear for the mark of the beast Newsome of urine-soaked hellhole, California.
00:38:51
Speaker
We object to the term urine-soaked hellhole when you could have said pee-pee-soaked heckhole.
00:38:57
Speaker
Could be facing his, what, third recall attempt?
00:38:59
Speaker
Which won't happen, but you'd think that a governor who has had this many recall attempts would still be marked and noted by amateur nation as an incompetent scumbag.
00:39:08
Speaker
Nah, amateurs will vote for this boil on California's butt because, like all amateurs, they never learn.
00:39:14
Speaker
A different amateur with the same mindset won't fix your state, Comifornians.
00:39:20
Speaker
Chicken chain Chick-fil-A is dropping its pledge to serve chicken with no antibiotics ever, opting for the, okay, so sometimes we have antibiotics.
00:39:29
Speaker
Dear trans people, what rights don't you have again?
00:39:33
Speaker
Recently, President Coloring Book lamented the destruction of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Maryland by incompetent Singaporeans, saying how he commuted many times over the bridge by car and by train.
00:39:44
Speaker
Which may have been true, if only there was a rail line on that bridge.
00:39:48
Speaker
Joe Biden's brain is on the ground!
00:39:52
Speaker
TechCrunch reported that unsealed court documents showed that Facebook snooped on Snapchat users' encrypted network traffic to study how they behaved.
00:40:03
Speaker
It was part of a secret program of Project Ghostbusters.
00:40:06
Speaker
Yeah, you better build your $100 million bunker in Maui, you scumbag Zuckerberg.
00:40:11
Speaker
Barack Okami recently endorsed Anmar Kampanijar, who is running for a California congressional seat.
00:40:17
Speaker
Who the hell is that, you ask?
00:40:19
Speaker
Just the grandson of a Palestinian terrorist who organized the killing of 12 Jews during the Munich Olympics.
00:40:25
Speaker
I'm sure he's totally chill.
00:40:28
Speaker
New York Attorney General Letitia James makes about $100,000 a year.
00:40:32
Speaker
How is her net worth $15 million?
00:40:33
Speaker
Must get stock tips from Nancy, my eyebrows are somewhere in my hairline Pelosi.
00:40:40
Speaker
I told you it was coming, New York.
00:40:41
Speaker
Illegal Alien City is now the first U.S. city to make drivers pay $15 tolls to drive on Manhattan's busiest streets.
00:40:49
Speaker
I'm guessing the revenue will go to illegal aliens ASAP.
00:40:55
Speaker
Satan's alternate and moon look-alike billionaire George Soros has given at least $1 million in grants over the last decade to a pro-Hamas group.
00:41:04
Speaker
And don't forget, he buys a lot of district attorneys around America, the kind that are bought to try to take down President Trump.
00:41:10
Speaker
And don't forget, he was a war profiteer.
00:41:12
Speaker
That's who you support, amateur nation.
00:41:15
Speaker
Leftists aren't American.
00:41:20
Speaker
Time now for three pro things, three things that are done right.
00:41:24
Speaker
Number one.
00:41:31
Speaker
I devote a whole chapter of my book, Amateur Nation, The Decline of Common Sense, Manners and Social Skills, to technology and amateur behavior.
00:41:39
Speaker
The cell phone is my most hated piece of technology all time.
00:41:44
Speaker
For me, being in entertainment, it's a necessary evil.
00:41:47
Speaker
I will admit my overuse of it, staring at it out of boredom.
00:41:50
Speaker
I'm getting better at putting it down once the day's work is done.
00:41:54
Speaker
I never have it out when on a date with my girlfriend or when I'm hanging with my friends.
00:41:58
Speaker
I also admit to throwing phones and hitting them with hammers because they deserve it.
00:42:03
Speaker
Here's Simon Sinek on Instagram on how to tell you if you're addicted to your phone.
00:42:09
Speaker
I just want to show you something.
00:42:10
Speaker
This is the psychological power of the device.
00:42:13
Speaker
What if I was sitting here talking to you, holding my phone?
00:42:16
Speaker
It's not buzzing.
00:42:17
Speaker
It's not beeping.
00:42:18
Speaker
No one's calling me.
00:42:19
Speaker
I'm just holding it.
00:42:20
Speaker
Do you feel like you are the most important thing to me right now?
00:42:23
Speaker
No, you don't.
00:42:24
Speaker
That's the association.
00:42:25
Speaker
So when we show up for a meeting or we sit down for dinner with our families and we put the phone on the table, it sends a psychological message to everyone sitting there that you are not the most important thing to me right now.
00:42:37
Speaker
And putting the phone upside down
00:42:39
Speaker
is not more polite.
00:42:40
Speaker
Put it in airplane mode to take away the temptation that something's coming in and put it in a bag or on a shelf out of sight.
00:42:47
Speaker
And this is how we should be interacting with people, giving them our full attention.
00:42:51
Speaker
Because the idea is not that we hear the words they say, but that they feel heard.
00:42:57
Speaker
And this is one of the tricks.
00:42:58
Speaker
If you wake up in the morning and you check your phone before you say good morning to the person sitting next to you,
00:43:03
Speaker
you probably have a problem.
00:43:04
Speaker
If you have to take your phone from room to room, no matter where you go, you probably have a problem.
00:43:10
Speaker
And just like any recreational drug, the more you practice leaving it away, it becomes easier and easier, and you find it easier not to be sucked in by the fear-mongering as well.
00:43:21
Speaker
So like any addiction, it just takes a little more.
00:43:25
Speaker
Number two.
00:43:28
Speaker
British-Irish comedian Jimmy Carr has this great short bit about comedians who get canceled for words that offend amateur nation.
00:43:35
Speaker
Take it away, Jimmy.
00:43:36
Speaker
You can't go around apologizing for jokes.
00:43:39
Speaker
They're jokes.
00:43:40
Speaker
So I've got a plan.
00:43:41
Speaker
The next time I get canceled over a joke, the next time I upset people with a joke, I'm going to come out on the day of the cancellation.
00:43:47
Speaker
I'm going to make a statement, a public statement.
00:43:49
Speaker
I'm going to say, I've rehearsed this.
00:43:50
Speaker
I'm going to say, I'm sorry.
00:43:56
Speaker
And the people that I've offended will say, you don't really mean that apology.
00:44:00
Speaker
And I'll say, so you're saying I could say something and not mean it.
00:44:04
Speaker
Now you're getting it.
00:44:07
Speaker
Number three.
00:44:10
Speaker
And speaking of offending through comedy, I love a well-placed, that's what she said.
00:44:15
Speaker
I hear it as much as I say it.
00:44:16
Speaker
I'm not sure if you've ever seen pictures of me, but on a day goes by where someone says I look like either fellow Italian and comedian Sebastian Miniscalco or especially Steve Carell.
00:44:27
Speaker
I get it every day.
00:44:28
Speaker
Both of whom I am fans.
00:44:30
Speaker
Well, I came up with famous people's, that's what she said.
00:44:37
Speaker
Cat Williams.
00:44:38
Speaker
That's what the fuck she said, motherfucker.
00:44:42
Speaker
Yoda.
00:44:43
Speaker
Said that she.
00:44:45
Speaker
Moses.
00:44:47
Speaker
So sayeth she.
00:44:49
Speaker
Van Gogh.
00:44:50
Speaker
What'd she say?
00:44:52
Speaker
Stephen Hawking.
00:44:53
Speaker
That is what she said.
00:44:57
Speaker
Arnold Schwarzenegger.
00:44:58
Speaker
That's what she said.
00:45:00
Speaker
Porky Pig.
00:45:02
Speaker
She made a similar comment, but that's what she said.
00:45:06
Speaker
Helen Keller.
00:45:10
Speaker
Sybil.
00:45:11
Speaker
That's what she said.
00:45:12
Speaker
No, it isn't.
00:45:12
Speaker
Yes, it is.
00:45:13
Speaker
Shut up.
00:45:14
Speaker
You shut up.
00:45:16
Speaker
Hannibal Lecter.
00:45:17
Speaker
That's what sheep said.
00:45:19
Speaker
Mike Tyson.
00:45:20
Speaker
That's what she said.
00:45:22
Speaker
Jeffrey Epstein.
00:45:23
Speaker
That's what Hillary...
00:45:28
Speaker
Bill Gates, that last booster shut her up.
00:45:30
Speaker
Barack Obama, that's what Mike, I mean she said.
00:45:34
Speaker
Klaus Schwab, she will say nothing and she will be hippie.
00:45:39
Speaker
CNN, don't worry about what she said.
00:45:42
Speaker
Mark Zuckerberg, she can't say that.
00:45:45
Speaker
Supreme Court Justice Katanji Brown Jackson, what is a she?
00:45:49
Speaker
The cast of The View.
00:45:50
Speaker
Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:45:55
Speaker
Dr. Anthony Fauci.
00:45:57
Speaker
The science says that she said that.
00:45:59
Speaker
AOC.
00:46:00
Speaker
Look, a bird.
00:46:02
Speaker
Gen Z. What she said offended me.
00:46:05
Speaker
Joe Biden.
00:46:06
Speaker
Am I still alive?
00:46:07
Speaker
You should vote for Trump.
00:46:08
Speaker
You should vote for Trump.
00:46:15
Speaker
2024 is the year of the great resist.
00:46:18
Speaker
Do not stay silent, fellow pros.
