Starting point is 00:00:00 Today's guest is a fiery little Sunbeam. She's a political pundit, she's a host from Fox Nation. She is a polarizing figure and she is a voice of conservative politics, Ms. Tommy Lahren. I spent and tell you about stories. You did a nice holiday? I did. You did? Back in South Dakota. Did you really? Oh nice. Whole family's still there. How many people when you go to the whole, when you say the whole family? My whole family still lives there. I only see my mom and dad. I don't see the whole family. Do you have siblings? No. Really? You're an only child.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Are we recording now or is this off? Huh? Are we going yet? Is this part of it? This fine, yeah. Okay. You're an only child? I am. No way. Hey. I don't think I'd get along with others. My mom always said that I would kill a child, another child if there was another child. I mean, if you had a sibling that was a, yeah, a staunch leftist, I think you guys would have a tough time at dinner. I don't think they'd survive. Really? No. You put them down, huh? Yeah. Early. In the womb probably. Real quick, real quick.
Starting point is 00:01:26 How hard is it for you to live in Los Angeles? Because you're really like, you were a voice, you were a right wing voice. You were like the, you're like the frozen, one of the frozen characters, but in like, but of like on the, on the far right, you know, or not far right, but on the right. Yeah. People say far right though. And then it's like, oh, it's all right. It's this. Yeah. I don't like that. I'm sorry. It's all this. Yeah. No, like I'm a voice. I'm more conservative. I'm on the conservative side. Yeah. Sorry. Yeah. No, I don't cross the 405. Yeah. I stay in the South Bay. It's still not great, you know.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Does it get risky? Like yeah, do people treat you? Yeah. Well, I'm pretty identifiable. Yeah. You and I have that in common with the hair. Right. So I'm pretty identifiable, but you know, I get pushed, I get tripped, I get kicked, I get heckled, but only when people are in big groups. So they would never say something to me one-on-one. People follow me around grocery stores. I'm sure. Why are you, like, why are you following me? Can I help you? I'm at the grocery store. You're, I'm not a, you know, a rare animal or rare species. I'm a conservative in California.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Here I am, but they follow, like weird men will like follow me around and they, it's like, I can see you. Well, those are perverts, bro. That's who those guys are. I'll tell you point blank. That's her. That's her. Yeah. That's me. What do you want to do? Yeah. That's all the time. Look it. Yeah. Yep. That's me. Do you, um, do you feel like you bring some of it like you asked for? Like I feel like you like the, uh, you like the fight. Yeah. People have to get comfortable being uncomfortable. Right. And conservatism.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Yeah. I agree with that. Bothers people. And so it's like, I'm not going to, the reason that Donald Trump won is because he was the first Republican. He's not like Romney or McCain who apologized for everything. He said, this is who I am. Take it or leave it. Romney's a fucking love it, dude. Romney seemed like a guy that sells socks to rich people. Well, yeah. You know what I'm saying? Exactly. He just like seemed like a tall guy who has a lot of socks, dude. Good looking. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Probably my first political crush was Mitt Romney until things took a turn. Really? Yeah. Also Paul Ryan. Do you know who that is? Is that the guy from Kentucky? No. Wisconsin. Senator Paul Ryan. Can you bring up a picture in please, Nick? Congressman Paul Ryan. He was a speaker of the house. I think so. Do you have curly hair kind of? No.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Let me see if, let me see if it's the guy that. You need to find it. I know Paul. Well, I'm from Wisconsin. So you know him well. Yeah. Attractive fellow, right? Oh, that guy? Yeah. Wow. You think he's handsome? Well, I mean, you're not pulling off the best photos. Go to the gym photo.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Old school. There we go. See other people. Well, I mean, some of these are fake, but go to the good ones. Go to the Time Magazine one. See? And does he look out with the really old wife that everybody always jokes about? No. Who's that? I mean, there's a lot.
Starting point is 00:04:04 The guy was married to like a, like a woman that's like 20 years older. 20 years older? Oh, I don't know who that is. It might be somebody else. We'll have to do a game where we put all the politicians for you. You know, Governor Newsom, you didn't know who that was. No. Yeah. So we need to just, we'll do a game. Yeah, I can use my phone.
Starting point is 00:04:24 We'll like a family tree. And we'll put them together for you so you know who's running the country. And on the top, you know, big old Don. Yeah. You know. Oh, Don's the easy, the redhead, man. Is he naturally red haired, do you think? Donald Trump? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:39 His hair's not red. It's got an orange tint. Well, not red, but I would say blonde more. I would say he's a blonde. Would you say he's a blonde? Yeah, I would say maybe he is a blonde. Yeah, I think he's a blonde. He's got, you know, it gets a little orange in there, but it don't think it's a red head.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Oh, I've had a similar cut. I've had that cut before. That would be a good choice. I've had some of his cuts. Have you ever met Donald Trump? Yeah. Was it pretty cool? How do you feel about it?
Starting point is 00:05:04 He's called me before and those were good conversations. Were you nervous about it? No, no, not really. I mean, it's something different about President Trump being President Trump. You don't feel like you're talking to a politician. He'll sit there and just talk to you. Just shoot the shit pretty much. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:20 You're like, hi, I'm in the Oval Office. It's pretty cool. You know, I'm getting a lot of things done. Great things for the country. Stay tuned. A lot of good stuff coming. Yeah. That's just how he is.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Right. What you see is what you get. People have to appreciate that. Yeah. Yeah, no, look, I mean, I think there's probably some great business stuff that he's doing. You know, I mean, I think there's definitely a roll call just in that, you know, America doesn't need to spend some time taking care of itself and not trying to take care of or be involved in everything.
Starting point is 00:05:47 You know, because I think at a certain point there's just not enough resources to take care of the whole world. And I could be wrong, but I just don't feel like there is because it starts to seem like people are having a tougher time. What was I going to ask you about? Oh, dude, so there was a guy a couple of years ago. Did some guy try to set me up with you years ago? Do you ever remember this or no?
Starting point is 00:06:07 No. Who would that be? Some man. Was it like in the DM or something? No, no, no. I didn't see. This was like five years ago. I was on, I used to go on OP and Jim Norton.
Starting point is 00:06:17 They had a show. He was like an older guy. He kind of looked like, remember that game, guess who? Remember the game? Yeah. Yeah. Were you guess the person? Can you look that up there?
Starting point is 00:06:28 Yeah. He looked like an old guy on there kind of. Can you look up old guy that was on guess who? Board game? And I, and he knows me. Yeah. He said, I know her and I, and I, and I don't know if he said, I'm going to try to set you guys up or if I said something.
Starting point is 00:06:43 But he, um, Well, how long ago was it? Yeah. Click on a couple of people. You got to source this person here. Yeah. It's not David. It's not Franz either.
Starting point is 00:06:58 Did he have glasses? We're playing the game. Tell you. It was a mix kind of between Tom. Tom in the bottom there? Yeah. Tom in the bottom. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Was he in politics or what was his deal? I mean, there's a lot of people that kind of look like that. Okay. Sorry. And a mix between Tom and, oh my God. Peter looks like a trend, a little bit of a transvestite. If you look at Peter bottom left kind of. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:21 That was a bad shop. He looked like Tom and Paul from guess who. Okay. Well, I'm not. Yeah. Sorry. That's not helpful. It's not helpful at all.
Starting point is 00:07:30 But anyway, like Bernie Sanders next to Peter. Which one? That one looks like Paul. And then Paul looks like Bernie Sanders. And then Peter looks like Bernie Sanders after the transition. It does look like, yeah. It looked like a mix between, no. After Bernie Sanders is on the real house,
Starting point is 00:07:44 why is it Orange County? Then you get Peter. Natural jump. Do you think Bernie will get the nomination? No. Really? No. No, it's going to be good old corn pop, Joe Biden.
Starting point is 00:07:56 No way. Yeah. I think Bernie's going to get it. And I think solely because of his, wait, do they vote for it? Is there a vote? There's a vote for it, right? Well, we vote in primaries. So in the primaries, it'll be between.
Starting point is 00:08:06 So Bernie will have a chance then. Yes, but he doesn't have a chance. It's going to be Elizabeth Warren, better known as Pocahontas, and Joe Biden. That's who it's going to come down to. And then it'll be Joe Biden. No way. I think, but here's what I'm going to tell you why I think this.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Because did you see Bernie Sanders on Joe Rogan? Yes. It's cool, huh? Yeah. No, people like Bernie Sanders, but the Democrats are never going to let him get in. They're not, just like they didn't with Hillary. Well, I mean, that was messed up how last year or last time
Starting point is 00:08:38 they fucking just screwed the guy. Yeah. Well, it's Hillary. She's got a pattern of that. But how do you just, how is there no policing? Like, he won and he got screwed. He didn't win, but he got out of that pretty unscathed. He is still alive.
Starting point is 00:08:53 You don't cross a Clinton normally and come out of it without an accidental suicide. Wow. So Bernie is still up there, shaking his finger ready to go, but he's not going to get the nomination. He's going to be sleepy, creepy, quid pro Joe Biden. Joe gives some good. I love it how it's just getting more and more senior citizen.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I hope we end up with like an 80 or 90 year old in there, you know? I just want to see somebody just eating soup basically on the stream cam 24 hours a day. What about, do you know who Ruth Bader Ginsburg is? They call it, yeah. So she's, I think we need to be doing a welfare check. Mm-hmm. I'm not convinced that she's, you know, like Kim Jong-un or Kim Jong-il.
Starting point is 00:09:33 You know, he wasn't around for the last couple of years of that. No one saw him, said El Castro, same thing. Oh, that's true, huh? I'm thinking someone is out there. Somebody took Ginsburg. No, I just think that she's doing poorly and they're making it seem like she's okay. Oh, they're propping her up.
Starting point is 00:09:49 Because listen, if they lose her off the Supreme Court, Trump gets another nominee. And then we go through all that again. Wow. So they need her to stay alive. They need her to be good. Oh, that's all right there. Oh, she's not going to be alive long.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Well, and we hope she's a great, you know, I'm not a Democrat. She has that face that she's like, her face is starting to spoil. And I don't mean that in a bad way. I'm not, she's a beautiful lady. I know she's, I think she was the first lady on what, the quarter. First thing that you're going to say, court. Like, we're getting closer. I'm joking.
Starting point is 00:10:24 I, I, I, I, a lot of great, she is, she's done a lot. I'm not a fan, but she's done a lot. I just don't think that she is as well as they, as they make her seem like she is because they need her to stay alive. I see. They don't want to get another nominee. They know Trump's going to win again. Like another one, I'd be three.
Starting point is 00:10:40 They're all getting up there in age. Yeah. Yeah. What about, um, did you go to prom in high school? Yeah. You did? Yeah. Was it fun or not?
Starting point is 00:10:49 You know. Where'd y'all go eat before? Shit. When you're in Rapid City, South Dakota, there's only a couple options. Yeah. I want to know what they were. Well, I didn't go there, but it, where I live,
Starting point is 00:10:58 where were you taking? Even now, I don't remember, but even now to this day, if I go home, it's like, if you go to Red Lobster or Olive Garden, that's up there. Oh yeah. That's nice. Yeah. Yeah, that's nice.
Starting point is 00:11:08 We went to Pita growing up. It was real nice. Yeah. Um, but Red Lobster and Olive Garden still is fine dining and where I'm from. Yeah. That's, that's still there. But you know, I, in high school, I had a boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Boy, I was with him for six, seven years almost. Do you sound like, was he a bad guy? Horrible. Really? Horrible. Yeah. No, it wasn't a good situation. Did he do, what were, what were some of his like, like?
Starting point is 00:11:30 Well, like going into college, right? So he played baseball. I knew he played baseball. Yeah. He played baseball. And we grew up. Do you know that she dated a guy that played baseball? Easy.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Checkmate. That's an easy one. I could have told you he played baseball. Yeah. Well, he played baseball and he got, we were in a D1 school, went to Las Vegas, right? So we both went to Vegas. She went to Las Vegas together.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Yes. Okay. Were you planning on getting married, do you think? Oh, I dodged a bullet. You did? Fairly certain he's bald now. I think he's got a couple of kids wandering around. But no, it was bad.
Starting point is 00:11:59 We go to college. He's like, listen, we can stay together, but I'm probably going to cheat on you. Because I'm quote, king shit around here. So just so you know, I'm like, yeah, that's not going to work for me. And then afterwards, like crying. Wow.
Starting point is 00:12:13 I can't do this alone. I can't save the day. Oh, he was really crying? Oh yeah, no, multiple times. Wow. He called me like a year ago. He's like, boy, I really missed out, didn't I? He did?
Starting point is 00:12:24 Yeah, you sure did. Did he really call you? He's like, yeah, you know, you could have been like my sugar mama. I can't, well, he's like, well, you know, we can talk and stuff and see where it goes. Probably not. Wow. That was it.
Starting point is 00:12:36 No, never look back. Six years. That's a long time. It's a very long time. Whenever you said you were an only child, whenever you were, when you were growing up, you were an only child. Still an only child, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:49 Yeah, damn. Yeah. That's crazy. Do you ever, do you ever, did you try to get your parents to have another kid? Absolutely not. Who would want that? Who, I just went home for Christmas last week.
Starting point is 00:12:57 It's like, who would want somebody else to have to deal with? Yeah. And someone else to have to, I want this for dinner. I want that for dinner. I want to use the bathroom at this. No, get out of here. Yeah. No, it's just, just me, the one and only.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Do you think that's affected like the way that you see things, like growing up, like even like your like political views or just like the way that you see the world? Yeah, you like to be independent if you're an only child. Yeah. You don't depend on anyone else. For entertainment, for anything.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Really, it's just you. You got to make it happen or you don't. Yeah. So that's what I've always done. Yeah. Not to worry about anybody else. Just do your thing. Just do your job.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Do your job. We could use some more of that in California here, people. Yeah, this is definitely, if you, if you look, anybody who's listening out there, if you do not have a job, not interested in having one, come here. You know what I'm saying? You'll, you'll be okay.
Starting point is 00:13:48 I mean, it's crazy. I used to tell, like I used to say, if you're an attractive girl and you didn't really want to get married and you just wanted to have like a sugar daddy or something, come here. Like there's definitely, there's a lot of easy ways out. You know, there's a lot of easy ways out over here.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Plus it's warm here, so it's easy to be homeless here. Yeah. Oh dude, I remember when I was in, one time we picked up, I had to do like a loyal idol. They have a school here, Loyola Maramount. Yeah. So we had to do Loyola Idol and it was just me and a friend were judging it
Starting point is 00:14:20 or we were emceeing it. They're like, hey, can you bring some judges? So we stopped at a park and picked up a couple guys, a couple freelance guys, you know? No. Yeah. You did not. Oh, a hundred percent, dude.
Starting point is 00:14:30 This guy named Rich and this other guy named, I want to say Tony. Tony died, not on our watch. Okay. But anyway, so we drive over to, we drive over to the school and we tell the kids, we're like, hey, we just want to let you guys know. We got two judges.
Starting point is 00:14:44 We just picked them up in the park. The curtains open and it's two just completely homeless guys. These are original homeless, not more like freeloaders. Like now it's gotten a little more freeloady out here. This used to be like old school homeless, Bunsen burner, cooking up something, you know? You know, one of the other homeless people was doing dessert.
Starting point is 00:15:01 You know what I'm saying? A little bit more streamlined, you know, this game playing homeless, you know? And they judge the whole thing. And at one point we had to count the votes and one of them barred a guitar from another student and played a song. Pretty beautiful.
Starting point is 00:15:15 Did he get his start? Was he that guy that got the radio gig? You know that guy? Was it a golden voice guy? Yeah, that guy. I don't think so. But you didn't help him out. You just dumped him back off at the park?
Starting point is 00:15:24 Yeah. No, afterwards, yeah. We gave him each, I think maybe $40 or $50. I'll say $50 to make us sound better. I think we gave him each $40 and then we dropped him off back at the park. Tony, I'm rich and I still see rich every now and then. I'll see him driving by or getting a blood transfusion.
Starting point is 00:15:41 He had something, I think one of his kidneys went out. Um, but anyway, um, yeah, I can't believe you don't remember where you went for prom. Was it fun? No, with the guy. It's horrible. Oh, yeah. It's awful.
Starting point is 00:15:54 No. What, did you go to prom? Yeah, I went. They had a girl, oh, I remember after prom, I was hoping to maybe, you know, touch a little tit. You know what I'm saying? That's nature, bro. And I didn't choose that.
Starting point is 00:16:06 That's inside of me, you know? And so God just lit that tit touching torch that's deep inside of me. And that's how I've always been. So, um, and I got stuck. Some kid, the girl I was seeing went to this party afterwards and I got stuck riding over there with somebody else, this guy, right?
Starting point is 00:16:23 This dude who, speaking of going bald, this guy kind of went bald in high school, right? Which is brave as fuck, I think, to do because people are really going to rip you, you know? Like totally bald in high school. By choice? By nature. Just by nature.
Starting point is 00:16:39 I mean, just like he'd been fucking eating lightning his whole life. You know what I'm saying? Like this dude had no hair left on his head. And he was crying. I don't know if he was on drugs or what was happening, but we drove over to this party. He's just like, hey, man, we give me a ride over there.
Starting point is 00:16:52 I was like, yeah, sure, man, jump in. You know, we're leaving. He had worn a coat, a dress coat that had shoulder pads in it. You know? And he started crying because we were graduating and he talked about that, oh, he said, people always think I look like Damon Wayans. Do you bring a picture of Damon Wayans?
Starting point is 00:17:12 Is he black? No, this guy's white. Oh, OK. So right then as soon as, yeah, I think because he's bald, he goes and people are always saying, hey, man, you look like Damon Wayans. And you know, when I just, I think I might have a career in Hollywood, but I'm afraid to go out there.
Starting point is 00:17:27 And he started crying, right? So I'm in the car. I'm like, dude, it's prom night, right? Just you two in the car. Yeah, just me two. So anyway, I had to sit there for like 40 minutes and listen to him and he went on and on him and he looked nothing like Damon Wayans.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Yeah. Anyway, so that was my car. That kind of ruined the vibe for you after that. Yeah, when I got there, the girl I was seeing was really an alcoholic. So when I got there, she was wasted and fist fighting somebody she thought was me. How crazy is that?
Starting point is 00:17:55 Sounds like he got out of that one. I would take Damon Wayans in the car over that one. Yeah, I would take Damon Wayans in the car. Who went to your school? It sounds like a bunch of real degenerates. Oh, the first white kid that wanted to be black ever, they used to call him Wiggas back in the day, went to our school, right?
Starting point is 00:18:13 And nobody'd ever seen it before. People were like, well, what's going on? You know, he wore like a starter jacket and stuff and they put him in learning disabled classes. How crazy is that? This is in Louisiana. Yeah. Because he wanted to.
Starting point is 00:18:26 Because he just, you know, he was like such a, you know, he just acted so black, you know? Didn't everyone go through that phase though? Oh, definitely. I don't even know how old you are. I'm 39. I'm an adult. Oh, damn.
Starting point is 00:18:36 You're like 10 years old, over 10 years older than me. Am I really? Yeah. When I was in high school though, we all went through that phase. Oh, really? Even in South Dakota. Really?
Starting point is 00:18:45 I went through a phase for a time. Oh, I went through like a 50 cent phase. Yeah? Every song. But what did you do? Oh, so you just love the music? Every song. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:53 I mean, there's nothing like rolling down the main street in Rapid City, South Dakota, and you're like. We're in Rapid City. Like, 01 Malibu, listening to 50 Cent, listening to, I mean, Pop-Lock and Drop It. That was a heyday of Pop-Lock and Drop It. They play that on my cousin's funeral actually. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Oh, okay. Sorry. But he love rap music. Yeah, see that's. Bring up a picture of that. Do you want a map of the city or? Yeah, just a picture of Rapid City. I want to see what we're looking at.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Yeah, you got it. So not a map. You know, like Mount Rushmore. You know that, where the faces? That's where I'm from. Yeah. Oh, I've been there. You have.
Starting point is 00:19:26 So, see, I live pretty close to there. What's the other city that's near there? Grand Rapids? No. No, that's a whole different state. Sioux Falls is near there? Sioux Falls, yeah. I did a comedy show in Sioux Falls one time.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Sioux Falls is pretty flat, not a lot going on. It wasn't a lot going on. And it was about one hour or about 45 minutes from the statues, from the Mount Rushmore. Is that right? It's like four hours. Oh, then it's not it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Maybe I went to Rapid City. You went to, well, yeah, it was about 45 minutes. If you were downtown Rapid City, then you were about 45 minutes from the heads. Was there a bar there that used to have a bird in it, a toucan or something, a parrot that was in the corner? It's not ringing a bell. Bar with parrot in it.
Starting point is 00:20:05 Can you Google Nick? In Rapid City, South Dakota. In Rapid City, South Dakota. You're like 12 years older than me, so. It could have been in Pierre right there. Joe Coy, you remember that? I remember. See, it's actually called Pierre,
Starting point is 00:20:17 but we're South Dakota. We just peer. Peer. Let's get to the point. Peer, yeah. Just cut out. We also have a city called Belfouche. Sounds like a toilet being flush, like Belfouche.
Starting point is 00:20:28 I think it's French as well. Belfouche, Pierre. Both of those things are, there were a lot of French people. Trappers or something. Oh, yeah, I could see that. Different kind of trappers than we have now. Not like trap rappers, but just trap like it for the furs. Do you listen to any rap music now or not?
Starting point is 00:20:42 Of course I do. Oh, I've had, boy, let me tell you. I've had feuds with about every, let me tell you. Who hates me? Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Jay-Z. I'm in a Jay-Z song. If you can pull that, you might not be able to play that. He might, you might have to get some.
Starting point is 00:20:58 Yeah, well have lyrical issues. You might have to pay him for that. Want to pay the man. Drug dealers anonymous. My voice is in that song. Wow. Take a listen. I said for, I think it's 14 years.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Now it's slipping my mind. For 14 years, your husband was a drug dealer. He sold crack cocaine. That's, it's in that song. Oh, wow. Yeah. I haven't heard that. Yeah, you need to take a listen to this.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Now, when you, do you, so it seemed like these kind of feuds, like you like, like you kind of, it's like you get into, like it's, because they act like they're so tough, but they're so fragile. 21 Savage, that's another one I had to feed with. I actually really liked 21 Savage, that was sad. But, you know, ice came. He passed away?
Starting point is 00:21:33 No, no, ice came and knocked on his door, because he was in the country illegally. Oh yeah, they moved him to Sweden, right? Yeah, they, well, I don't know where they moved him, but you know, I just tweeted about that. I'm a big proponent of ice. Whenever ice does its thing. So just, you know, the law came a calling.
Starting point is 00:21:49 Yeah. But yeah, the rappers, they don't, they don't like me that. I wouldn't say that, oh, I Lizzo just last week. Lizzo and I scrapped, we scrapped a little bit. I saw this. I don't know why it's just. Do you, when, if you're going to write something back, do you ask, you ask a friend, like, hey, I need some help.
Starting point is 00:22:04 You mean like ask a black person? Is that what you're asking? Or no, it could be a white friend too, or somebody that's mixed, or just a white guy from Flint, Michigan. But do you ask somebody for help? Like, hey, is this good? Like, hey, is this good? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:17 No, no. Oh, because comedians do that sometimes. You're like, if you're going to do a tweet sometimes, or something, sometimes you'll ask, you'll send it to your buddy first. And if he doesn't answer back and you want to put it out, so you're like, what the fuck, man? Check it out and see if it's funny.
Starting point is 00:22:30 I need to post this shit. No, I just go ahead and post it. But no matter what, no matter what I say, even if what I say is better than what they said, like last week, the Lizzo thing. It's like she'll, it was impeachment. So she tweeted out like an impeachment with like a peach in it. And then I responded to it.
Starting point is 00:22:44 And then all the, all the Google alerts afterwards, and all the articles from like hip hop unlocked, and you know, all those was, oh, Lizzo, drags Tommy. It was like, you respond with a peach, you don't drag me. I'm sure you could do a lot to me, but you didn't in that instance. Right. It's like everyone is, if it was ever it's a conservative,
Starting point is 00:23:02 it's like, they got dragged by Cardi B drags. She was going to dog walk me. And that was her thing with me. Yeah, it's a lot of, I mean, yeah, definitely. There's only really one. Pull up that picture. There's a lot of memes that Cardi B, dog walk, you'll, you'll see it.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Everyone, they made a convenient, well, yeah, let's see. Get some, some images. See, yeah, that was going around for a little bit. Oh, who is that? Oh, that's Cardi B. Well, that's her. What kind of dog are you on? It looks like, I don't know, like a pit bull.
Starting point is 00:23:33 I think it's a pet. I had to guess. Well, it's really tough. I mean, it's just because there's so much power. There's so many cameras and so many networks that the people that own them are the people that, that are liberal, you know? And there's so few feel like that are just avenues to be outspoken and be conservative, you know?
Starting point is 00:23:56 A lot more conservatives or people that vote conservative, they just vote. Right. But we're out there. Right. Like they were smart. They would cater to like, we watch reality TV. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:08 We watch football. We watch all the things that they think that they're their liberal audience. It's conservatives that are watching your stuff. It's conservatives in places like where I'm from, where it's cold in the winter and we watch your sitcoms and all your crap. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:21 We are your viewers. Like you think it's these people that are running around here in LA? No, these people are homeless here. It's the Midwest people that can't be outside homeless because they've freeze to death. Those people watching your stuff, but they alienate us. Like we're not, you know, we're not their audience.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Do you feel like Hollywood alienates? 100%. There are so many conservatives in Hollywood that would never. But here's the thing though, but it's bad business to do that. But why is it that way? So that's why I don't understand that. And I'm not saying that I disagree with you, but I'm saying that a lot of people that work in the industry
Starting point is 00:24:57 are so smart that it would seem like, why wouldn't you see that this is bad business? You know, why wouldn't you see that this just doesn't help? It doesn't help by alienating. You're talking about not alienating people, and then you alienate people, you know? But what they do though is they look at people like me and Trump supporters.
Starting point is 00:25:20 They look at us like we're less than morally. So it's easy to alienate us because they've come up with in their mind that we're horrible, evil people and we're racist and we're bigots and we're all this. So they can alienate us because that's just how they see us. They don't want to see anything different. They don't want to talk to people that are not like them because they'd rather just put them in that box
Starting point is 00:25:38 and cast them aside. Yeah, it's the same thing that they say don't do. They say don't behave this way. What I don't like is, one thing that gets me in that space is that all people that are basically like, if you're from a rural place and you're white, that you are racist, that you are homophobic, and that stuff really, it's almost the most ignorant thing
Starting point is 00:26:02 you could think. You think, like I had a guy say, oh, you're from Louisiana? Oh, yeah, so obviously, you probably grew up racist. And it's like, man, it's just like, if you want to be diverse and you want to be welcome, at least know who is in your own country first. Like it's just such a narrow-minded thing
Starting point is 00:26:25 from people in a place where there's so much education here in Los Angeles. There's so much people that have traveled and people that have had experiences. There's a lot of diversity here. You would think that people here would be able to, would at least know who is also in their country. But they don't like, and not everybody,
Starting point is 00:26:43 I don't like to put everybody in one category, because a lot of people here, they don't like people from where I'm from, or they don't want to like them. They don't want to get to know them. Like we're the flyover states, they look at people from South Dakota, from Louisiana, from Mississippi,
Starting point is 00:26:57 from other places in this country, and they're like, eh, not really like our kind of people. They're just in the middle, they're just the little people. Yeah. And that's why Trump won. Yeah. Because he said, you matter, and you're not forgotten anymore.
Starting point is 00:27:10 And that's why he's going to win again. They're going to do the same thing. They are so stupid. They did it in 2016, they're doing it even worse now, and they think it's, what is it going to get him? I don't know. I think they're just trying to get ready for 2024. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:24 Yeah, I mean, I do think that Trump is going to win in 2020. I don't see, I just don't, there's too much beef now even, it seems like on the Democratic side, I don't know that much about, you know, I don't follow a lot of politics. You know, I know, obviously I know the easy ones, Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan.
Starting point is 00:27:45 One time I was at my school when I was growing up, I was walking down the hall behind two janitors, and one of them said to the other one, he goes, hey man, did you get the chairs ready in the gym? Mr. Ford is going to be speaking in there later today. And the guy goes, President Ford? And the guy goes, no, Mr. Ford, the fucking science teacher, dude. Not President Ford, you idiot.
Starting point is 00:28:08 So, but anyway, so yeah, I mean, I know a lot of the presidents, and I know like the lady that bought the bus and then went out of business, because I used to, I got into a bus company for a while back, and we went out of business. Kind of like the zoo you almost bought in Mexico? That's in a low in zoo, man. 1400, almost, almost, yeah, I'm glad I didn't do it,

Starting point is 00:31:09 But do you like, at this point, it's like a lot of news is just for ratings, it seems like now. I mean, sometimes do you feel like you're going into a ball game and it's like, and it's not as much beliefs as much as it is like, let's see if we can start some shit.
Starting point is 00:31:25 It's kind of like, who's the black gentleman on ESPN every morning, it just starts. Steven A. Steven A. Smith, yeah. You're almost like the white Steven A. Smith a little bit. Do you ever feel like that? No, I just, I think that a conversation needs to be started. But for what I do and people that are on, say, the channel,
Starting point is 00:31:42 I think it's a little different. I don't speak the way they speak. I speak very commonly, plainly, like the way people understand. Kind of similar to the way you talk. That's why I am where I am, because I speak to people in the way that they like to be spoken to.
Starting point is 00:31:56 So Trump does too. You know, he's a billionaire from New York. Talks like they talk and they like that. So I don't fit the mold either. I mean, how many people on Fox News do you know that have, well, a lot of them have blonde hair, but have like a nose ring and talk the way I talk and do what I do, not many.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Is that your only piercing, that one? No, I have two. I have belly button, nose. Hmm. Yeah. You were hoping it was something else, weren't you, Nick? Nick's had some issues with sexual issues on your hair. Do you have some piercings?
Starting point is 00:32:24 Work place. Huh? Yeah. Well, I don't work here, so. Good point. No, I don't. I've thought about it though, but I just don't know what I would get.
Starting point is 00:32:33 Piercings or tattoos? I would get a tattoo, I think. You don't have any tattoos? A couple of falcons on my fucking back, maybe. Yeah. Maybe a tattoo of me beating the shit out of Chris DeLeo in my back. That'd be good.
Starting point is 00:32:44 No, I don't have any. I've thought about it though, do you have one? I have two. What are they? I have one of my wrists, it's an 11, semi-colon, and I have my state flower and my state grass on the back of my neck. Okay.
Starting point is 00:32:58 And that's Montana? South Dakota. And do people get them confused a lot? North Dakota and South Dakota, I've never had people get it confused from Montana. That's crazy. Can I have you the first? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:09 We're all just somewhere up there where it's cold. Yeah, I guess, yeah, a lot of people just, it is interesting how since over time, since we've become more of like a, when you're in LA, you just, yeah, you start to think this is the whole world. You start to think that this is the whole country. It just kind of happens.
Starting point is 00:33:27 Do you notice that a little bit? You have to notice how the perspective is how, I feel like there's just two total different perspectives in the country now. Like some people live like in one world, and some people live in another world. Some people live in the real world, and some people live in California.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Some people live in, some people are more idealistic, and some people are more, it seems practical. Yeah, yeah. No, I mean, it's not practical here. Gas at almost $4 a gallon doesn't sound practical to me. Yeah. Gas tax that we voted for ourselves,
Starting point is 00:33:58 like we voted that in. We had a chance to repeal it and we didn't. That doesn't really give me a lot of confidence in my fellow Californians here. Who doesn't vote to repeal a tax on themselves? Yeah. How did we get here? How did we get here?
Starting point is 00:34:11 But you know, there's a lot of things in this. It's expensive, man, I agree. It's expensive, but there's a lot of good stuff too. Yeah. There's an ocean. Yeah. And. There's the beach, there is,
Starting point is 00:34:22 there's a lot of different types of people. There's a lot of talented people. True. Yeah. I don't know, like I said, I don't cross the 405, so. There's a lot of opportunity to do different things. That's true. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Yeah. No, California's a great place. Now you say something nice. California's a great place. It's just being run into the ground. Like you can't look around here and think things are going well here. Like you found people to judge your talent competition
Starting point is 00:34:43 in a park. Yeah. Right? And if you did that now, you'd have to do auditions to get the people from the park, because there'd be so many, you'd audition to go to the talent show. You go out there right now and say,
Starting point is 00:34:54 who wants to judge a talent competition? Yeah. I don't know what you'd find. Yeah. I don't know what you find. There's also a Twitter account I want you to follow. Okay. It's called Santa Monica Problems.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Yeah. They document it. Is it good? Oh yeah. Well, I mean, there's a lot of, like a lot of masturbating and stuff. They don't even blur that out. They're just like, this is what we have here.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Yeah. You know, you've seen it. Well, look, people say it's an unborn. If it's not born yet, it doesn't have any, it doesn't have any rights, right? What do they say? I'm not sure. What do they say?
Starting point is 00:35:24 Yeah, I don't know. I was looking up Santa Monica Problems. Dude, I remember my dad, if we masturbated, he made us bury it in the yard. He's like, that's God. You have to bury that in the yard. He made us go bury the semen out in the yard. Yeah, that's crazy, right?
Starting point is 00:35:36 I've never heard that before. Yeah, I hadn't heard it either. He was getting older though, so I think he might've been, you know, a little kind of all over the place. So you had, but you had a thing when you worked at the Blaze, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:49 And you had a, whenever you got laid off. I got fired. Okay, sorry. Yeah, try to put it nice. You don't like things put nice. You just like things put. I was like, let me get laid off. I got fired and then I had to sue.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Like, you know, it doesn't, things got a little messy there. Were you shocked at day, cause you had a point of view on abortion, right? Yeah. And were you shocked that they, like, were you shocked at how they just, did they not want you to have that point of view?
Starting point is 00:36:18 Yeah, well, it was a conservative place, so I get it. But for me, it's, I always try to clarify that comment. So here's the way I feel about it. I'm not pro-abortion. I don't believe the government should be in people's business. I believe in limited government. Like I feel as conservatives,
Starting point is 00:36:30 that's what we should stand up for. Don't take our guns. Don't say who we can and cannot marry. Don't get involved in abortion. That is not a government issue. It doesn't do any good cause the government is not going to prevent it. It's just going to make it more difficult
Starting point is 00:36:43 for people and put people in danger. So that's where I stand on that, limited government. But no, they were just looking for a, looking for a way to get me out the door. Had things kind of spoiled already? Well, I was pro-Trump, and my boss who's a conservative was anti-Trump. Glenn Beck was the biggest never-Trumper that there was.
Starting point is 00:36:58 I mean, election night, we had to do like a live stream and he was painting over in the corner to calm his nerves. And then at one point in the night, it was like Trump, I don't even know, like a landscape. Oh yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:37:11 You can call. That's easy, bro. If you're going to fucking paint something, paint something hard, dude. It was, you know, Glenn's an odd character. Right. He, Glenn Beck?
Starting point is 00:37:19 Glenn Beck, yeah. Glenn Beck thinks that he is Walt Disney. Not like I'm inspired by Walt Disney, like Glenn Beck thinks he's Walt Disney. Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot of weird stuff. There's a lot of weird stuff I encountered. Does he have children or not?
Starting point is 00:37:32 Yeah, he's got quite a few children, I think. Yeah, he's a later in life Mormon. Okay. It came to the religion, like wasn't born into it. Okay. And he lives in Utah now? No, he lives in Dallas. Huh.
Starting point is 00:37:46 And do you, so you guys butted heads? Well, he never really spoke to me up until he fired me and then he was real chatty about firing me. Oh wow. And do you think he, what do you think, why do you think he really did fire you? Was there something behind that? Well, when you're pro-Trump and then Trump wins
Starting point is 00:38:05 and then you were anti-Trump, you kind of look like a jackass. Oh, I see what you're saying. And you're running a conservative network, but you're against the Republican president who just won the presidency. It doesn't look good. So you got to get rid of the person in the building
Starting point is 00:38:18 that kind of knew all this was going to happen. So this is a real convenient way to like cast me out. And were you upset? Were you like nervous when that happened? You had to be scared. You're like, what am I going to do now? How am I going to work? Well, I had a choice.
Starting point is 00:38:29 I could sit back for six months and get a paycheck and just go completely dark and not do anything. And then they wanted to take over my Facebook page, which has got 4.6 million followers. They wanted to just delete it. Like, you're not gonna, that was mainly what the lawsuit was over. It's like, you know, you're not going to delete
Starting point is 00:38:45 my Facebook page. What benefit would he have to delete my Facebook page other than just being a vindictive a-hole? Right. And have you guys seen each other since it all went down? No. Someday. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:38:58 Someday there'll be a moment. Do you have in your head like a vision of where you guys kind of like, like you show back up with here. You know, it's almost like the channel four news team, like on that movie with that Will Ferrell. Yeah. And he comes in and he's like,
Starting point is 00:39:12 oh, this is, you know, like the two news teams going at each other. Do you have that kind of vision in your head kind of? No, I don't know if I'll ever see good old Glenn Beck again. Is he handsome or not? Not my type. Maybe he's your type, not my type.
Starting point is 00:39:28 Oh no, I've never been with a man. I've never, I've never even thought about it longer than like maybe a second and a half, you know? And that was only because, oh, I don't know, some of the pops in your head when you're jogging or something for like a brief second, you got to shake it off, you know? Huh.
Starting point is 00:39:45 Interesting. Yeah, so anyway, my prom experience was shit, you know? It was really bad. That promise was really bad. Was Tommy on court? Huh? Were you on court? Would I go to court?
Starting point is 00:40:00 Were you on prom court? Oh, hell no. Really? No, I wasn't like that popular, no. I mean, I ran everything. I set up prom, but I wasn't. Oh, were you on student council then? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Yes. Student council president, student body president. Oh, that girl's usually kind of fucking aggravating, I feel like. Were you? I don't know, that was an aggravating, I guess. No, I planned everybody's, everyone's so lazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:26 I planned everybody's stuff. Oh, that's true, somebody has to do it all. Like someone has to pay for your concession stand, like someone has to go work that and get their freaking hot dogs out of the boiler and give them to people. Yeah, because otherwise you're just standing around, you're wishing you had some airheads
Starting point is 00:40:38 and you don't, you know? Yeah, everybody wants stuff to get done. It's just kind of like it is now. It's like nobody wants to do anything. Right, it's kind of interesting. Yeah, there really isn't a very strong, like it feels like, yeah, there's not like a young, strong, right,
Starting point is 00:40:51 like conservative voice. So you're like, oh, I have to do this. Is that kind of how you got into, like being so like adamant? You have to be though. We have to combat some of this stuff. I've always just been opinionated, it's just who I am. But I just didn't understand why we,
Starting point is 00:41:08 as conservatives, always apologize for everything that we believe. We're so scared of everybody. We don't want to say what we're thinking because we don't want to be labeled. We don't want to be called a name. Oh, if you think this, you're a racist. If you think that, you're intolerant.
Starting point is 00:41:19 If you believe in border security, then you hate Mexicans. No, let's just talk about what our ideas are. Let's shape the narrative. I'd rather be the one that does it than have the other side do it. So why are we not doing it? The left does it.
Starting point is 00:41:29 You're not going to meet a liberal in California who's going to be embarrassed to say they're a liberal. But there's a lot of conservatives walking around here. They won't say anything. Oh yeah, conservatives, if you're conservative here, you have to meet up in basements at night. You have to fucking meet up behind the Dairy Queen. You can't even, yeah, it seems like it's like,
Starting point is 00:41:47 yeah, but there's, yeah, I guess it's just, yeah, I never thought about it like that. Yeah, like people, if they're conservative, they can't really have a voice here, you know? No, no, LA, it's going to change though. It's going to get so bad here that people are going to look at it and say, how do we get, I would think people would look
Starting point is 00:42:02 at the state and say, well, who's running it? Maybe he's not doing such a great job. Maybe it's time for a change. I don't know. It seems like, it almost seems like, like a lot of times the liberal world or whatever, it's like, they'll go to the death being wrong or not wanting to concede any, like.
Starting point is 00:42:27 Right, yeah. Eventually though, the people are going to, well, you know, I don't know. We got a voter fraud problem. We got an illegal immigrant problem. Who knows what's going to happen to the state, but the really rich people, even like the really compassionate, wealthy, rich liberals,
Starting point is 00:42:41 they're not going to stay here and pay these taxes. They're going to live somewhere else for five months a year. They're going to pay this, they don't want to do this. Why would anybody want to do this? Even the liberals that are so compassionate, they don't want to give their money to the government. Come on, they're going to get out of here
Starting point is 00:42:56 and then we're not going to have much. Right, right, because then who's going to pay for everything? Not the homeless, not the illegal immigrants. What's left here? We only are able to continue at this pace because we have the tech industry and because we have Hollywood. People aren't making movies here anymore either.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Why do you think? They're not going to deal with all the regulations and how much it costs to make a movie in California anymore. They're going to Georgia. Come on, nobody's staying here. Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, I definitely, the taxes are definitely egregious. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:43:25 It makes you think like, yeah, how can I not go somewhere else? Do you, so what brought you to live here then? I want to save it. I want to change it. I would think that that could be done if people would wake up and see all the things that are just happening here.
Starting point is 00:43:39 That's what brought you to Los Angeles? Yeah, yeah. You have to be able to go somewhere where people don't think like you do. That's why I went to school in Vegas. I lived in Texas, which is very conservative, but still it's changing. And I've lived in San Diego and now here in LA.
Starting point is 00:43:54 It's like you have to go where people don't think like you do. So whenever you can, so you can in Los Angeles and people don't think like you do here. You'd be surprised though. A lot of people come up to me. I'm a conservative. Yeah, they're low-key conservatives. Oh yeah, like I can't tell anybody.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Can't tell anybody. You can, but they're afraid. They'll lose their job. I have people that are prominent people in Hollywood, prominent producers, directors, everything that are conservative. Oh, people come up to me all the time. People always think like I'm like running
Starting point is 00:44:27 the underground railroad of conservatives. Like I'm the fucking, you know. You think it's a mullet? Yeah, maybe. It could be that. It could be just the fucking sheer amazingness of myself. But it's one of those two things, I think. But they'll be like, hey, where's the meeting at?
Starting point is 00:44:40 And I'm like, what are you talking about, man? I think it's a mullet, maybe. It could be it. But yeah, people come sometimes and it's definitely scary to think that you could lose your job to express a political belief. And I think that that's the kind of thing no one should ever have to feel that way.
Starting point is 00:44:56 And that's the thing that makes me just scared sometimes about anywhere. Someone should never feel that way. I think you can always figure it out and discuss it. I mean, I was nervous about even having you come on because I'm like, oh, well this could be, it could be, I don't know what I was really scared of though. That's the thing.
Starting point is 00:45:14 The fear is like an invisible fear. Isn't it weird though that we stop doing things and we're worried about what other people are gonna think about what we do? I'll tell you this, so if I've had a lot of people on my shows or I've gone on other people's shows and I don't worry about how conservatives are gonna think of me, I don't worry,
Starting point is 00:45:27 like if I go on with Trevor Noah on The Daily Show, I'm like, oh boy, like conservatives aren't gonna like me anymore. We don't think that way. But the other side is like, well, what if I, if I even have so much as have this person on my podcast or I talk to this person or have a commentary with this person, even if I agree with them
Starting point is 00:45:43 or disagree with them the entire time, just like the thought of being in the same room, people are, oh, we can't do that. You'll offend, you'll offend people. Yeah, it's just not a help. It's not, first of all, it's no way to even get forward in anything. It's no way to discuss.
Starting point is 00:45:56 You can't have a discussion unless people are communicating. But people don't wanna have a discussion on that side. I know, people just wanna be right. They don't like that. They don't like it when the, cause you know when the truth comes in the door, the bullshit's gotta go out the window. So they don't, they don't like that.
Starting point is 00:46:07 And they might find that you might have more in common. Like people would be surprised. Like Van Jones and I are actually friends. So people would be shocked at that. Clearly not similar in any other way, but it's like we can have a conversation. Why not? Trevor Nolan and I actually are pretty good friends.
Starting point is 00:46:22 I've had good, I mean, I was with Chelsea Handler. We did a whole thing together. And she was pretty cool to me. I think she's crazy, but she was pretty cool to me. So whatever, I was on the view. That's how I lost my job, being on the view. Did you, do you feel like sometimes though that you, like you, like there's one thing to like
Starting point is 00:46:43 kind of share how you feel, right? And there's another thing to like bring the fucking to wanna bring the fucking thunder. You gotta bring the fire. You can't say it nicely. You don't walk into a room, when shit gets bad here, when socialism comes knocking on the door, cause it already is in California.
Starting point is 00:46:57 When that stuff starting to come in, we've got presidential candidates that are talking about, you don't need a gun. We're going to come take your guns. We want bigger government. We want to take more of your tax dollars. When that's socialism, see what Venezuela is like right now. Like it's not good.
Starting point is 00:47:10 You can't, you can't like walk into a room and be like, guys, I don't think we should let them take our guns. They gotta be like, no, we're not going to take our guns. We're going to stand up for ourselves. We're going to be patriotic. We're going to stand for the fucking flag. We're going to have American values. That's what we're going to do.
Starting point is 00:47:24 You don't, can't tiptoe into a room and say that you have to come because that's how they do it. Right. So why are we have to, people say that to me all the time. Well, do you think maybe you're like too aggressive? A liberals never apologized for it. So why should I have to apologize for it?
Starting point is 00:47:37 I think it's such a load of bullshit. It's like, well, you're controversial. No, I'm conservative and you don't like it. So it's controversial to you. Right. Personally, I think socialism and trying to get rid of the second amendment and the taxes we pay in this state and letting felons out,
Starting point is 00:47:54 I think that those things are controversial. Yeah. Those are a much bigger problem. Yeah. A lot of that shit is scary shit. You know, and it's a lot of stuff. Yeah. That a lot of people, they,
Starting point is 00:48:03 it's interesting how online people are one way. And then the reality of who they are is different. You know? Yeah. People wouldn't actually, I can't say people wouldn't say that to my face. Cause you've got to say it to my face plenty of times, but. Look, it's a new year and it's,

Starting point is 00:50:07 Paul Ryan? Yeah. There's not a lot to choose from. What about Bill Clinton? No. You think he's handsome? No. He always looks like he has a permanent sunburn. And I know that Donald Trump has a spray tan,
Starting point is 00:50:19 but Bill Clinton always looked like his face, like he's got a sunburn. Yeah, I could see that a little bit. I think he's getting to some of that, like he's been drinking, but he shouldn't be drinking. Like the doctor told him not to drink anymore and he's still drinking. Yeah, he went on a health kick though.
Starting point is 00:50:33 I think Hillary put him on something. It scares me whenever old people try to get real healthy because it's like, oh, this could kill them. It's like risky. If you've done it that long, might as well. Yeah, to stay, yeah. But I mean, who else is attractive? There are, there's not many.
Starting point is 00:50:52 Yeah. If you do good looking male politician, it's like Gavin Newsom and Justin Trudeau that come up. Oh, Justin Trudeau. Oh, that's the guy that married his mother. Is that the guy? No, but his eyebrows fell off. Have you ever seen that?
Starting point is 00:51:06 You need to Google that too. His eyebrows fell off his face. They did? Oh, Sam. You need to see, you need to see it. Do you get worried sometimes for yourself? Like, do you get scared being like a, like a conservative voice living in LA?
Starting point is 00:51:18 Like, does it, like actually you actually get spooked? Yeah, I've been to the police station a few times. Really? There's some real credible threads, but listen, I believe in the second amendment, so. Do you have a gun at home? Of course I do. You know, if someone's gonna come into my house,
Starting point is 00:51:30 they're gonna know who I am and they're not there to just give me their political opinion. Listen, it's not gonna turn out well for me. Did you write your name on the bullets or no? No. I could see you totally coming out with a line of bullets. No, no, I don't think that would. I think we can collaborate on it if you want.
Starting point is 00:51:49 But. I wanna go down to the border. I know you invited me to go down there. I think you need to go. I think the agents would really enjoy it. I was just down there and Tito Ortiz came through. Oh, really? I'd serve food with him one time
Starting point is 00:52:00 at a homeless shelter down here. Yeah, you should come to the border though. Yeah, I would go. From the Black Hawk, you can see the need for the wall. We'll show you where there's no wall. We'll show you the wall that's being built. You can see that sucker. Well, it's just so scary to get, like these days,
Starting point is 00:52:16 it's so scary to get stuff through the news because I feel like the news has become such a place for business as opposed to, and it probably always was. It is, that's why you gotta go. Right. When people talk about the border and they never been to the border, when Democrats say like, we don't need a wall.
Starting point is 00:52:29 I haven't seen you down there. If you're going to our Border Patrol agents who are saying, this is my job and I think we need a wall because this would help us do our job better because a physical barrier would be helpful for us. And then you've got Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer saying, no, we don't need a wall. We don't, it's like you're directly contradicting
Starting point is 00:52:48 the people that do that for a living. Would you go to a plumber's like, I think that's a problem. I think you need to fix it this way and be like, no, you don't know what you're doing, man. Right. Pretty sure they do. Yeah, but it's like, it's crazy to hire people to do something and then to not let them do it.
Starting point is 00:53:01 You know, it's like there's just, there's so many, it's almost like there's too many checks and balances these days in some ways. We need checks and balances, but it's just, you gotta, we had an opportunity. Listen, I don't let Republicans off the hook either. We sat there for two years with all that power. Where's a wall?
Starting point is 00:53:18 Yeah. No. Is there a wall right now or no? Yeah, there's wall being built. I've seen it. There is. I've seen it in multiple areas of the border. It's being built. There's more of it, but it's being built.
Starting point is 00:53:30 I wonder if there's gonna be, there's gonna be a shit ton of graffiti on it. Let them. But I think you should put Donald Trump's face right on the side of that wall. Just have him looking right at you. Come on over. Come try it.
Starting point is 00:53:41 Come try it. That's what I put on. Put it on both sides. I don't care. Wow. Put Donald Trump on that. Put him on that wall. Put Nancy on that wall.
Starting point is 00:53:48 You want, you want people to stay away? Put Hillary on that wall. Hilarious. Hillary and Donald are starting to look like each other. Look, Google right now. I mean, uh. Yeah, I've seen that meme. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Yeah. Google Donald and Michael Moore right now. There's a picture then they put up yesterday. I don't think so. Michael Moore. Just wait. No, they don't look like that. There's a picture they put up yesterday
Starting point is 00:54:09 and I saw it and they really look alike. No. Come on. Get close. Come on. Getting close. No, Hillary looks more like Trump then. Hillary and Donald are starting to look similar.
Starting point is 00:54:21 They look more similar than Michael Moore. That's not such an insult. Are you excited for the, with the election lumen again? Are you excited because like it's more of a, it's more of a vibrant time where, where like you're going to be able to get more like into things? Are you looking forward to that?
Starting point is 00:54:37 It's been like that since 2016. Things were boring before that. But things are all, things are exciting every single day with this president. But it's going to be exciting. I like the debates. Did you watch the Hillary Trump debates? Yes.
Starting point is 00:54:48 See, those were great. Yeah. Whoever we get this time is going to be even better. Biden right now, I would feel bad for him. Can you imagine, I just cannot, I just hope that everybody keeps getting older and it keeps getting weirder. I want to see a fucking swimsuit section of the debates.
Starting point is 00:55:02 That's what I want to say. I want to see it get really, really weird, you know? No. No, I'm thinking, I think that's a no. Well, did you watch the debate where Trump, like he's a troll king. Yeah. Where he had Bill's accusers in the front row of that debate.
Starting point is 00:55:16 Oh yeah. That's crazy, huh? That's good. That's so, it's so crazy how like, um, do you think they really had beef though? Cause it seemed like before that they're all on the same, they're all running around the same world. Here, we got a question.
Starting point is 00:55:31 Let me know if you can hear this from the headphones. Okay. Hey Tommy, I just have one question. Do you ever see comedians? Do you go to comedy shows and listen to our boy Theo ever or other individuals? So I need to go see one of your shows, but you have them places I'm scared to go to.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Really? Yeah. I have to wear my, I have a Alexandria Ocasio Cortez costume and AOC costume. I have to wear that maybe. Oh, wow. Yeah. No, it would be bad.
Starting point is 00:56:01 Cause you're not gonna perform unless you're gonna perform in like Hermosa that we got a comedy club in Hermosa. They have a comedy club down there. You gotta come through. I'll have to come through down there. That's my safe space. But you know what, are you familiar with Ben Glee? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:11 So Ben used to be a really good friend of mine. Had Ben on, I vouched for him to come on Fox Nation into our post-debate coverage a couple of months ago. Vouch for him. He's obviously Democrat. Running for president. Yeah, I saw that. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:23 So I vouched for him to come do this. We get to the end of the coverage. He freaks out, says, this is bullshit, pulls his mic out and walks out the room. Like, dude, you're seriously? I vouched for you to come on here. He does that to me. And they started tweeting mean shit about me.
Starting point is 00:56:38 I'm like, what I do to you? We're friends. Weird shit happens. Telling ya. Maybe he was just trying to get like a- Oh, his moment. A moment, yeah. He's trying to get a moment, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:48 Not in moments, yeah. Yeah, that was his moment. Wild how it's become such a moment thing. You know, it's like, that's one thing I liked about seeing Bernie on Rogan was, and I know that other politicians, I know that Yang was on there. I gotta check some of them out. I haven't listened to all of them, but I felt like,
Starting point is 00:57:06 that's why I think Bernie would get the nomination. Cause people for the first time got to hear him just talk, you know, it was like, you almost got to know him a lot better. People say the same thing about Hillary on Howard Stern, that it was just the first time you got to hear her be like a regular person without a script. And it was actually kind of interesting, you know?
Starting point is 00:57:24 No, I think they should all do that. Yeah. I think they should invite Trump on, let him talk to. Yeah. But he kind of does it on his own. He probably doesn't need the help. Yeah, well, it's funny. It's like the only, it's almost like sometimes,
Starting point is 00:57:35 I don't think senior citizens should be allowed on Twitter. I think there should be like a cut off. I think it would just help them all, you know, like, but sometimes that's his only news sources or the only way that he can say stuff. How can you get it out? You know, they're not gonna cover it. They're not gonna cover money or they're gonna distort it.
Starting point is 00:57:50 So thank God for Twitter and Facebook and all the places he can livestream his stuff. Cause otherwise he wouldn't be president. He couldn't get his message out. Yeah. So that's the beauty. When you're not a politician, what do you like to, like what is, I'm trying to just see who like, you know,
Starting point is 00:58:07 I just wish you'd have had more fun at that prom, you know? I travel a lot for work. I mean, I work a lot, but I enjoy what I do. So it's not all, I do a lot for law enforcement. Like I love law enforcement. I love military. I love our border patrol. So I do a lot with them.
Starting point is 00:58:21 Have you seen a new show called Flint Town? No. It's on Netflix. It's really good. Okay. It's just about like a police department in Flint. Oh, okay. So you get to like see Flint and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:58:32 Yeah, I will watch that. Is it real social justice warrior-y though? It's not too bad. Okay. Cause I can't, I can not handle that. I stopped watching the Kardashians when they started doing that and any show, they started doing that. And like, I can't even watch it anymore.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Yeah. Definitely over the past couple of years, a lot of things ridiculously got kind of political, you know, it just like made, it made some entertainment kind of dumb, you know? But that's why I think one thing like podcasting became bigger is because people can just talk, you know? They can just have a conversation.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Let's get another question that came in. Here's a guy right here. Oh, did you ever see any other comedians? We didn't ask you. Do you have comedians that you like or why? I don't go cause I'm scared. But I used to love Chelsea, Chelsea Handler. I used to love, like that was my favorite show,
Starting point is 00:59:14 Chelsea Lately on E.I. I watched it every single night, my favorite. Wow. Yeah, I love Chelsea Handler. And then it got, again, it got weird. Well, she got, I mean, she just got real political. Yeah, see? And then that, what was that?
Starting point is 00:59:25 That Netflix show? Yeah, that was horrible. She wasn't funny anymore. She was, she lost being funny a while ago, I think. Rick Chewy. Yeah, all right. You just died. Yeah, you just died, yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:35 That's sad. I watched that show all through high school. Yeah? Yeah. It was a good show. Let's get this question here. Hey Tommy, hey Theo. John here from New Jersey.
Starting point is 00:59:45 And a big fan of both of yours, and I had a quick question for Tommy. I saw you went and saw Morgan Whale in a couple of months ago on Instagram, and I wanted to see what your opinion was, who's got the better mullet. Theo or Morgan? See, it's right in his whole view.
Starting point is 01:00:04 And he DM'd me too when he's like, I love Theo. It's like, you need to be on the podcast. And he said, well, he needs to invite me. I said, I'm gonna hook it up, I'm gonna pitch it. There he is. Look at that beautiful cut, huh? I'm telling you, he needs to be on. And we have similar shoulders too.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Look at his shoulders, kind of. Very nice. Yeah, that's his aesthetic. Did you meet him? Yeah, he's a good friend of mine. Yeah, I'm gonna go see him in Dallas next week. You are? Yeah, but you're going to Europe,
Starting point is 01:00:26 so you're kind of out of luck, but yeah. I'm out of luck right now. Let me see a little bit. Yeah, we got to hear more about Morgan Whale, and who has the better mullet, do you think? I don't really have a mullet. I have long hair. You have a mullet.
Starting point is 01:00:36 It's a mullet. It's like definitive mullet. Oh, whatever. What do you think a mullet is? I think a mullet is something that's really, really more like, look at mullet. Here we go. Like this.
Starting point is 01:00:55 Here's a Filipino guy right here with one. How is that different? Or semi Korean, this guy. But here's the thing, is that a mullet? Yeah, that's a mullet. A mullet is anything that's shorter in the front and longer in the back. Okay.
Starting point is 01:01:07 Like a big stair step. The big thing is called the skullet, and that's when you have no hair in the front and still have long hair in the back. What about rat tails? There's a skullet right there. What happened to rat tails? You know that?
Starting point is 01:01:19 Yeah, my brother has one. I know a couple of kids in South Dakota, they got a rat tail. I'm like, what is this? My brother has one. I don't know. What do you have your hair like when you were a kid? I mean, nothing creative.
Starting point is 01:01:28 Yeah? Nothing weird. Did you do pigtails? Did you do something? What'd you do? Yeah. Do you do barrettes? Sure.
Starting point is 01:01:35 You did? Yeah. There was just the normal kid stuff. A headband, you know it? A headband. I had a headband. Yeah? I did the whole 90s thing.
Starting point is 01:01:43 Okay. You know, the whole 90s situation. Did you walk with your book bag on the front or the back? What do you mean the front? Some people put it on the front. So people don't steal their stuff? That must be a California thing. We don't have to worry about that in South Dakota.
Starting point is 01:01:56 We were always on the back, man. You walk it around like. You make everything political. What is, it is political. It's so hard. You'll get your ass kicked in South Dakota. You walk around with a backpack in the front. That's like people that carry like the babies in the front.
Starting point is 01:02:13 Come on. I saw someone at LAX the other night. No shit. With a little backpack in the front. I'm like, what are you worried about, dude? Well, he's worried pickpockets. He's worried about your friend. What's his name?
Starting point is 01:02:24 Oh, Richard Tony. Richard Tony. Sneak it in there. Tony Dodd, I think. Dig in there in the back. Well, we don't talk about him then. He's, we don't. No, it's fine.
Starting point is 01:02:32 He's fine. I mean, that's definitely an LA thing. That's cause people do that stuff doesn't get stolen. Not gonna steal in South Dakota. I mean, not that people don't steal, but there's not that many of us there. So you can pretty much figure it out. Right, and there's a little bit more,
Starting point is 01:02:46 yeah, there's a little bit more, I think in places like that, there's a little bit more like rural justice kind of that happens, you know? There's a little bit more like, okay, someone's not gonna go do that because they know they're gonna suffer a consequence. People are armed.
Starting point is 01:03:00 People are armed. We just saw that in Texas. But like in California, you do something to somebody. You're gonna stab you with their needle, but what is the average person gonna do? Give you like a good talking to, you know? Nothing tweet about it. Glitter, glitter bombs in your face or what?
Starting point is 01:03:17 Let's get one or two more questions before you leave. You need to have Morgan on though. I mean, you need to do it. I would love to have Morgan on. I'm telling. You gonna set it up? Yeah, I'm gonna set it up. I want Master P on.
Starting point is 01:03:25 I'll set that up too. You will? Yeah, I got the, I got all the, any of the rappers, you know. Who do you want? Who was like my ultimate person that I liked at Kaepernick? Really? 100%.
Starting point is 01:03:37 Yeah. Wow. It just needs to happen. Yeah. It'd be interesting. Have you seen my Kaepernick video? I haven't seen it. You'll have to watch it.
Starting point is 01:03:44 70, 75 million views on that sucker. Yeah. Yeah, people were so heated about the Kaepernick thing. You have to watch it sometime. Do you think that he was that person? Or do you think? No, 100% not. 100% he was pissed.
Starting point is 01:03:59 I'm gonna tell you the story. I get fired up about this. He was pissed. You get fired up about a lot. That's okay. That's good. It's interesting, man. I have my moments.
Starting point is 01:04:07 You have some chill moments. I have some chill moments, but tell you what happened with the Kaepernick. He got put on the bench. Blaine Gabbard became the starter. So he was over in the corner pissing. He thought, what can I do? What can I do?
Starting point is 01:04:19 Oh, I know, I'll make this. I'll make this a social justice warrior moment for myself. And then I'll start kneeling and sitting on the bench. Like you didn't do it when you were the starter. You did it when your ass was on the bench. And now it's just a joke. It's now his workout and stuff. Do you think, what I heard was that he was dating a girl.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Yeah. Who told him. Who really got into it, yeah. Like, hey, listen, you need to, now you're kneeling for oppression. You weren't oppressed all these years. You weren't oppressed when you were making $19 million. You weren't oppressed,
Starting point is 01:04:49 but now all of a sudden you're on the bench. You know, they're probably not gonna, you're not gonna give you what you want. Not gonna renew your contract. And then you become oppressed. Yeah. But they do need, you do have to like, but some of the outrage, some outrage stuff,
Starting point is 01:05:04 it helps shine a light on things. I think sometimes it doesn't do a great job. I think- But how is kneeling for the anthem? How does that advance- I agree. I don't know if that was the most, I think, yeah, I think the bigger thing was just like,
Starting point is 01:05:19 you know, people need to look at how black people are treated in America. I think that would have just been better to have some organized way, or, you know, or just some other way of doing that. But I think it did its job. I just think that it was a little, it was just, it wasn't organized really.
Starting point is 01:05:36 I don't know if, but who knows if they had that plan from the beginning, who knew that it would spawn such a thing, you know, such a fervor of people like, you know, that people need to think about the way that they look at and treat black people, you know? Yeah, but it's like for the flag and saying that this country is a horrible country
Starting point is 01:05:54 that oppresses people. Like, what are you trying to advance there? You're also looking at a game where you have black people and white people playing together, black people and white people watching at home in the stands. Oh yeah, no, but nothing, yeah, I'll go to this. It brings people together
Starting point is 01:06:09 and you wanted to use something to divide people and especially in activity, like sports that really brings people together. When we talked about how this country is less divided than people would have you believe, that's the kind of stuff that divides people. It's like not the place for it. If you wanna go have a rally
Starting point is 01:06:24 or you wanna have your activism or whatever, you have to do it in the place where people are getting along and people are coming together over sports and love of country, that's just an American thing and you wanna make that about you in your little moment where you hate this country. No, no, I don't have no time for that. Do you think that, do you think there,
Starting point is 01:06:47 do you have like, is there like an end goal to like, because the discussion of conflict can just go on forever? Like, do you feel like you have like an end, like a place where it's like, okay, now I'll be happy? Well, I think Trump being elected just showed people that there's a lot of power in the forgotten Americans. So that was the first hurdle. But now it's just, it's not,
Starting point is 01:07:11 I don't ever wanna change someone's mind. That's not the goal of what I do, is to get rid of liberals and make everyone conservative. I don't think everyone should be conservative. I think there's a nice balance in this country of liberals and conservatives. That's how it's always been. But the problem is that the liberals
Starting point is 01:07:24 started to silence conservatives. Conservatives got scared to stand up for their beliefs. And then pretty soon you're just being overrun. And those are the values, the loudest voice in the room is the one that makes the decisions. And that's not just in politics, but it's in corporate Americans and everything.
Starting point is 01:07:37 So you have that one person that says, now anybody who disagrees with me is a racist and a bigot, then pretty soon people just stop saying something and we lose this country. It descends into madness. So that's the result I wanna get. It's not agreement. It's just respecting other people's opinions
Starting point is 01:07:53 and for conservatives to just get a backbone, which we did in 2016, we're going to again in 2020, but it can't just live and die with Trump. You can't just have Trump. Eventually he's gonna be gone and we're gonna need somebody else that's gonna be able to route people up, but it shouldn't just be that one person.
Starting point is 01:08:08 If you're a liberal, I don't care. I talk to the liberals all the time. I have a lot of friends who are liberals, don't agree with me on a lot of things. I have a lot of conservatives who don't agree with me on a lot of my beliefs. We can still talk, but until we get to that place, my job isn't done.
Starting point is 01:08:20 So you just gotta get pissed off about it. And they're not gonna take my guns, tell you that. I know, I know, I know you said that. I know that you've think that. I know that, no, they don't ever take anybody's guns. I mean, there's just too many fucking guns. You could never get all the guns, dude. If you tried to get, even if you tried to go door to door
Starting point is 01:08:37 and get 70 guns, it would take you probably a year. Two years maybe to get 70 guns. You could never, and there's hundreds of millions of guns. Can you do any dance moves or not? Can you do any? I can, yeah, I'm not gonna do them right now. No, I don't want you to do them right now. Yeah, no, I like rap music.
Starting point is 01:08:51 I tell you this. Yeah, I do. There's a different... Would you ever go to, did you used to ever go to the club? Or you like... Oh, I had a, yeah, oh, yeah. I went to school in Vegas. Did you ever date any black guys in Vegas or no?
Starting point is 01:09:02 No, because I dated that baseball player and then that was pretty much, and then I dated a Mormon after that. Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah, that's pretty. Yeah. What does this guy have, Nick?
Starting point is 01:09:15 Hey Tommy, hey Theo, hope you guys are doing well. So my question is, from what I see on the internet, there's a lot of hate surrounded with Tommy's name and just in general, a lot of racist comments about her, a lot of just horrible things said about her. And I just wanted to know, how do you deal with that? Like, how do you deal with all this negativity and continue to like put out content
Starting point is 01:09:41 and be just a positive person? Thank you. Okay, bro. That was nice. Yeah. This young man there seemed like a nice man. He has a hand, you can see his hand in the video. He has at least one hand.
Starting point is 01:09:55 I mean, responding to his question, I don't really care what people think about me, that I don't have respect for. Like if they say nasty things, I just don't have respect for it. So why would I let that bother me? Like if I was gonna let everything that people called me and said about me,
Starting point is 01:10:08 bother me, I wouldn't do what I do, live in a hole. Yeah. That's just, now when you bring it up, I got all these, the game went after me. You know, the game, the old rapper, the game. Right, but also, you're kind of an easy target, right? Yeah, I mean, I think it's an easy win for them. Yeah, it's an easy win.
Starting point is 01:10:25 It's an easy win. But who really wins? Right. Nobody. Nobody ever wins in a Twitter war. No. First of all, ever. I mean, Twitter is, most of Twitter is fucking people,
Starting point is 01:10:35 I think who are not even working and just yelling about shit. They're definitely not working. They're definitely not working. There's no, it's absolutely become unbelievable. How, yeah. But people that, that's why I worry about the younger generation,
Starting point is 01:10:48 because they get all their validation off of Instagram and the things that people say about them or don't say about them. Right, so it's more what people think of how you are. Yeah, yeah. It's more about the idea than it is about the reality. Yeah, people will go places, and I'm sure you see it all the time too.
Starting point is 01:11:00 They're there just for the Instagram photo, or they're there just to say they were there, but they're not really there, or they're not really, they don't even really want to be there. They're doing things to get likes and validation. If they don't get that, then they feel like they're less of a person. That's, we're getting into a real bad spot
Starting point is 01:11:16 with young people in social media. Well, just because it's so like, at that point, you're just a victim of kind of whatever, as long as you're gonna look a certain way, as long as everybody looks certain way, it almost becomes like that Black Mirror episode where it was like, as long as you behaved a certain way to people,
Starting point is 01:11:32 then they liked you and it reflected like an actual social score that you kept, and you had to keep a certain level. Yeah, so people are not being themselves. So that's another thing I want to inspire. I think you do that a lot too. That's why you have the fan base that you have, is you inspire people to just be yourself,
Starting point is 01:11:46 whatever that is, just be that. And if they don't like it, do you really care? I mean, do I really care what these people say or think about me? No, it doesn't really affect me. They don't, as long as, if they're not paying my bills, it doesn't really affect me, what they think about me or what they say about me.
Starting point is 01:12:03 It's like, they're taking the time out of their day to say something nasty. Yeah, that kind of stuff's ridiculous. Yeah, some of that shit's just fucking like, get a life. Don't you feel like you kind of won when people say that? Like you took, I say, sometimes I respond to people on my Instagram, they'll say, you're this or you're so irrelevant.
Starting point is 01:12:18 It's like, you came on my page, you looked at my picture and you went to comment, you took time out of your life to say something about me. Clearly, I'm getting to you in some way. So I win, I still won. Yeah. Yeah, I think it's interesting like, yeah, some girl messaged me and she's like,
Starting point is 01:12:34 oh, I can't communicate with you if these are the type of guests you're gonna have on, you know? And it just made me feel like, oh, that's so, I just felt bad for her, you know, kind of. It just felt like, I don't know, I just, it's kind of scary how, I don't know. It's scary how like, it's so easy for us
Starting point is 01:12:58 to just like what we like and also just to get served only that by like algorithms and stuff now. It's like, you can stay in a world where you never know anything else exists. You know, like you can be a New England Patriots fan and you've clicked on a couple of things, a sweatshirt or something you think about buying and next thing you know, your Facebook feed
Starting point is 01:13:17 for the rest of your life is just, you think everything's about Julian Edelman, you know what I'm saying? Like the entire world because that's what they're feeding you, you know? So it's really, I mean, it makes sense kind of how people are just really kind of one way or the other these days or a lot of people are
Starting point is 01:13:32 because that's all they're getting fed, you know? People also feel more comfortable when they can put somebody in a box. Same thing with me in coming out and saying what I did about being pro-choice, like, well, we thought you were conservative and now you're saying something that doesn't fit the mold, get back in your box.
Starting point is 01:13:45 That makes people really uncomfortable when you're just a free thinker and you just do what you wanna do and you think the way you actually think. People don't like that. It's like, you gotta be here, you gotta be here. Do you think, but do you think like moving forward that we're headed towards having hopefully
Starting point is 01:13:58 more political parties, having things be a little bit more diverse in that space? Like it's got, it's a little crazy to think with how, how things aren't just one way or the other a lot of times that there should be more options that are real options, you know? But I think you have that with the individual. The thing that I worry about people say,
Starting point is 01:14:18 we need more of a party system. Well, they have the same thing. They have that in Europe. It doesn't necessarily change things. It just makes elections more complicated. But people are so lazy now that they don't even research things as it is. Can you imagine if we actually had to take the time
Starting point is 01:14:32 to research multiple parties with multiple candidates and try to make a majority? Like, no, people just need to, it's easy to say that. People just need to be more active in what they're voting for and learning and stop trying to please people. Just do what you think is right. And I think less government.
Starting point is 01:14:49 I don't think there's a person out there that thinks, I think government should be bigger and control more of what we do. It's scary. I don't think that, you know, whether you agree with all the tenets of conservatism or Donald Trump, you don't have to, I don't.
Starting point is 01:15:00 But I think we can agree that we know how to best spend our money better than the government, better than people in DC. Well, yeah, I mean, the government, look at, look at even the national debt. I mean, the government hasn't done the best fucking job. That's why sometimes when, you know, when they appeal to like poor people
Starting point is 01:15:16 or something like, we're gonna help you and stuff, it's like, you guys been saying this forever. And not, it just, I don't know. I think it's interesting to see when people go against the norm, you know? To try and, that's why, that's one reason why I think Kanye is interesting because he's just, you know, I don't really know
Starting point is 01:15:33 where his political views lie really, but he's trying to buck the system. He might be a psychopath as well, but he's trying to be fucking as brave as you can be. The easiest thing to be is exactly what is most comfortable. Mm-hmm. Yeah, no, I think we all need to get out of the box.
Starting point is 01:15:52 Don't let anyone play you in the house. Yeah, we all need to be, Tomi Lahren had moved to out Los Angeles. This is a good one to end on. There's a one question to end on and we're getting out of here. What's up guys, this is Alan calling from New York. I got a question for you, Tomi.
Starting point is 01:16:10 I know you got some strong viewpoints that give people pretty riled up. I was just wondering your thoughts on baby Billy running through the house with a pickle in his mouth. Oh, that's righteous Jimstones, have you seen that? No. What? No, I didn't quite hear what he even said.
Starting point is 01:16:24 What can you repeat? Running through the house with a pickle in his mouth, baby Billy, can you bring him a picture of Uncle Baby Billy? You haven't seen the righteous Jimstones? No. Oh, you would love it, it's really good. I like pickles though.
Starting point is 01:16:34 You do? Yeah. Oh, damn. Big pickle fan. You are? Yeah. Oh, damn. It's a great food.
Starting point is 01:16:41 Really? There's no calories in a pickle, did you know that? Yeah, man, where would they put a calorie in there? If you open a pickle up, there's no place even for a calorie, isn't it? That's Uncle Baby Billy right there. Okay, he looks, I'm just not familiar with it. He's one of a kind dude.
Starting point is 01:16:56 He's probably one of the top six or 700 men that's ever been alive. I'll have to look into that. Oh yeah, you would love this guy. He, yeah, the show's called Righteous Jimstones. Yeah, I'll take a look at that. It's really good. All the people that sent me videos.
Starting point is 01:17:11 Did you play soccer growing up? No, soccer's a communist sport. Okay. Okay. It is. Well, it is one of those sports. Every time you hear about a sport where people got killed after the game
Starting point is 01:17:22 because they lost, it's always soccer, bro. It's never something else. It's just a real, it's also like really fragile sport. Yeah, you think? Yeah, I think it's a very fragile sport. Don't you think? Yeah, I feel like if you bump into the guy they call a foul.
Starting point is 01:17:39 Yeah, I don't think it's a man's sport. It just doesn't seem very manly to me at all. I've never been a fan of soccer. I think it's, yeah, it's boring. You know, growing up, if you have to have a sport or there's not actual bleachers, you got to bring your own chair. There's already a problem, think about it.
Starting point is 01:17:57 You see those parents, especially in South Dakota, you see parents sit out there and they're fricking unfoldable chairs, like freezing and watching their kids. Yeah, pretend like their kid's fucking good, dude. And they're thinking of another soccer game. Yeah, that's hilarious. Tommy and Laren, thank you so much for coming.
Starting point is 01:18:13 Thanks for having me. Hopefully you don't get too much shit. Yeah, no, I mean, I have no idea. You know, like we have all kind of people in here and you're welcome back. We're going to go to the border. Oh yeah, it's true. And you're going to have Morgan Wallin on too.
Starting point is 01:18:25 I haven't had Morgan Wallin on. Dude, yeah, you're like the student council president. You're like, look, some of this shit. Make it happen. Yeah, we just do this shit. Yeah, I just figured it'd pay me a little bit. I'm a capitalist at the end of the day. Oh, damn, okay.
Starting point is 01:18:36 I'm going to have a cut of the rev share deal here. Okay. I'll bring you a lot of good people. Yeah? Yeah. Okay, I'll send them away to the middle man. I'll be the pimp. I like this.
Starting point is 01:18:45 Yeah. I like this. Do you think that women should be allowed to be able to sell themselves sexually if they want to? We don't have to talk about that. No, I don't, I don't, no, I mean, I wouldn't. We'll take it out. We're good where we were.
Starting point is 01:18:57 Yeah. I said, pimp, we can end it on that. I mean, I want to just go in Vegas. So that's everywhere, but. Oh yeah, it's true. It's popular in Vegas. But yeah, then they get traffic. Like people don't actually want to.
Starting point is 01:19:07 People aren't actually traffic that much. There's so much less trafficking going on when they really say it's not bumper to bumper with fucking hookers, you know? It's like occasionally there's a hooker, you know, and some are being kind of mismanaged. I think there's definitely a middle, like kind of a, and then sometimes I think every now and then though,
Starting point is 01:19:26 there's somebody's being taken advantage of. Traffic, yeah. Yeah. Sometimes they just make them work. Yeah. Yeah, sometimes it's just a lazy hooker. No, no, no, like work traffic, not sex trafficking, but just they traffic people to work on farms
Starting point is 01:19:39 and feel like slave labor. Oh yeah, there is more. There's a little bit of slavery going on. A little, yeah. But I wonder where it's at. I wonder what states have still have a little bit of slavery in them. Well, the people are getting traffic to work here,
Starting point is 01:19:51 to work in agriculture. Yeah. Like avocados. There's a lot of avocado slaves, basically. Almond milk. Oh dude, squeezing the fucking almond. It's gotta stop, man. Tamelaeran, thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:20:05 Thank you. Now I'm just floating on the breeze and I feel I'm falling like these leaves. I must be cornerstone. Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind. I found I can feel it in my bones. But it's going to take a little time for me
Starting point is 01:20:33 to set that parking brake and let myself unwind. Shine that light on me. I'll sit and tell you my stories. Shine on me. And I will find a song. I will sing it just for you. And now I've been moving way too fast on the runaway train with a heavy load of my head.
