So, for those of you [00:00:04] those of you who are joining us over at [00:00:06] the YouTubes, let me remind you that you [00:00:08] can only ask questions if you are a [00:00:10] DailyWire Plus subscribers. You're going [00:00:12] to want to go check that out right now. [00:00:14] You should put your money where your [00:00:15] values are. There's a lot going on. You [00:00:17] don't want to miss a minute of the news. [00:00:18] So, head on over to dailywire.com and [00:00:20] get that all access membership and that [00:00:22] way you'll actually have access to chats [00:00:24] like this all the time. We're making [00:00:25] this free so that you can see it on the [00:00:28] YouTubes and on all the other platforms [00:00:30] because frankly there's a lot going on [00:00:31] and also, you know, this is something [00:00:33] different. Basically, you ask questions, [00:00:34] I answer them, I sing stupid songs. I I [00:00:37] do, you know, I flex whatever there is [00:00:39] of my biceps. It's it's the dumb place [00:00:42] and dumb things happen here. So, that's [00:00:43] that's your introduction. Okay, right [00:00:45] into the questions. [00:00:47] See, [00:00:49] hey Ben, what are your thoughts on the [00:00:50] UK riots? I'll probably get into this a [00:00:52] little bit more tomorrow, but the UK [00:00:54] riots are obviously the result of [00:00:56] decades of people simply ignoring the [00:00:58] fact in the UK that when you import [00:00:59] large populations of people who have no [00:01:02] intention of assimilating to British [00:01:03] values and then you make it a sin to [00:01:06] even mention that, people are going to [00:01:07] start getting pretty dang ticked off. [00:01:10] That doesn't mean that people should act [00:01:11] criminally. Obviously, criminals should [00:01:13] be arrested. However, Kier Starmer's [00:01:16] wild sympathy for the BLM riers compared [00:01:19] to his lack of sympathy whatsoever for [00:01:22] the people who are very upset that three [00:01:23] people just got stabbed in the UK and [00:01:27] people who are very upset about the vast [00:01:29] wave of migration coming from places [00:01:31] that don't particularly like western [00:01:32] valleys. It demonstrates where Kira [00:01:34] Starmer is. You want to talk about an [00:01:35] elitist issue? An elitist issue is what [00:01:36] if we import lots of people from places [00:01:38] that hate our country? This is true in [00:01:40] the United States. It's true in the UK. [00:01:41] It's true pretty much everywhere. And [00:01:43] then the elites are like, "Yeah, yeah, [00:01:44] but they're a labor based." [00:01:47] Okay, other questions. What's my best [00:01:50] advice to try to convince a longtime [00:01:51] Democrat voting American Jews not to [00:01:52] vote for Kamla on social media? Well, [00:01:54] the good news is that the Democrats are [00:01:56] making that case right now actively. [00:01:58] It's one of the things they did in [00:02:00] flirting with Josh Shapiro and then [00:02:01] promptly taking his face and ramming it [00:02:03] directly into a toilet. And that that [00:02:04] that is what they just did to the [00:02:06] governor of Pennsylvania. And Josh [00:02:07] Shapiro, make no mistake, is probably [00:02:09] closer to median Jew in the United [00:02:11] States than I am, right? I'm an Orthodox [00:02:13] Jew, which means that I fully keep [00:02:14] Sabbath. I fully keep kosher and all the [00:02:16] rest. Josh Shapiro is conservative, [00:02:20] maybe I've heard kind of conservox, [00:02:22] meaning he keeps some semblance of [00:02:23] Sabbath. He he sends his kids to some [00:02:25] sort of Jewish school. When he was [00:02:27] younger, he had a bar mitzvah, you know, [00:02:29] all that kind of stuff. Not fully [00:02:30] orthodox. Obviously, he does not agree [00:02:32] with sort of hahic Jewish values in [00:02:35] terms of sort of the the traditional [00:02:37] down the line Jewish stances on [00:02:39] everything from same-sex marriage to [00:02:42] abortion. With that said, he is again [00:02:44] much closer to median Jew. And [00:02:46] basically, the Democratic party said you [00:02:48] can have the same positions as Josh [00:02:49] Shapiro on Israel. You just can't be a [00:02:50] Jew and have those positions. Which is [00:02:52] why they went with Tim Walls. It is [00:02:53] perfectly obvious they went with Tim [00:02:55] Walls because Tim Walls is not a Jew and [00:02:57] he's from Minnesota. And of course, the [00:02:59] Biden Harris administration has done a [00:03:00] horrible job with Israel. And in the [00:03:02] aftermath of October 7th, even a bunch [00:03:03] of liberal American Jews who thought [00:03:06] they had nothing to do with the state of [00:03:08] play in Israel suddenly realized for [00:03:11] just a hot second that there are a lot [00:03:12] of people who like to kill Jews and a [00:03:14] lot of people who root for those people [00:03:16] to kill Jews. And a lot of the people [00:03:17] who had marched with BLM, a lot of the [00:03:19] people who had marched with the [00:03:20] intersectional crew suddenly woke up to [00:03:22] the fact that, hey, our stwire allies [00:03:23] aren't really our allies. And so the [00:03:25] Democratic party moving against Jews in [00:03:28] general. And again, doesn't mean every [00:03:29] Jew is is feeling like this, but a lot [00:03:32] of Jews are feeling this way. In fact, [00:03:33] there was a Sienna poll that just came [00:03:34] out in New York showing that a majority [00:03:36] of Jews, 50 to 49, were talking about [00:03:38] voting for President Trump as opposed to [00:03:40] Biden. So, the Democrats are making the [00:03:42] case. It also happens to be the case [00:03:43] that Donald Trump is the single most [00:03:44] pro-Israel president in American history [00:03:46] by far. [00:03:49] You tr you make me laugh whenever you [00:03:50] say someone is trying to make fetch [00:03:52] happen. Mean Girls is the best. Lol. [00:03:54] Yeah. Well, I mean Kla, the media with [00:03:56] Kla, they are trying to make fetch [00:03:57] happen for sure. By the way, I will say [00:03:59] Tim Walls is a better politician than [00:04:00] Kla Harris. He was much more genuine [00:04:02] tonight. We'll go over this on the show [00:04:03] tomorrow, but the rally tonight was a [00:04:06] nice coming out party for Tim Walls, who [00:04:08] is in fact very good on the stump. He's [00:04:09] a liar. He's lying about all of his [00:04:11] positions. He's pretending to be sort of [00:04:12] a downhome moderate who coached football [00:04:15] as opposed to the kind of dude who puts [00:04:16] tampons in the boys' bathroom. He he [00:04:19] makes he pretends to be Minnesota nice, [00:04:20] but then he makes dumb jokes about JD [00:04:22] Vance and couches, which is a very [00:04:24] online kind of gross pornographic joke. [00:04:27] With that said, he's better at this than [00:04:28] Kla Harris. [00:04:30] How important is energy independence to [00:04:32] improving the economy? It is deeply [00:04:33] important. It's not just important to [00:04:35] improving the economy, by the way. And [00:04:37] bringing the price of of oil down, gas [00:04:40] at the pump, that's a very important [00:04:41] component because it gives people more [00:04:42] disposable income and more money to [00:04:44] invest and more money to spend and more [00:04:46] money to save and all the rest of it. [00:04:48] The reality is that the entire world [00:04:50] political structure has been radically [00:04:52] reshaped by the fracking boom. I just [00:04:54] read a fantastic book by a guy named [00:04:57] Daniel Jurgen who's an economist and he [00:04:59] specialized in energy called the new [00:05:01] map. It's from 2020. He wrote an epilog [00:05:03] in 2021 talking about how the shale oil [00:05:05] revolution, the fracking revolution [00:05:07] really changed the balance of world [00:05:08] politics because effectively speaking, [00:05:10] OPEC no longer has nearly the same [00:05:12] amount of power on the world stage that [00:05:13] it once did. Russia, same deal. The [00:05:15] United States is now the largest global [00:05:17] producer of energy. And that means that [00:05:20] we have inordinate power to shape the [00:05:22] world around our wants and needs if we [00:05:24] so chose to do so. The Biden [00:05:26] administration obviously is uninterested [00:05:27] in that. They are more interested in [00:05:28] pandering to their far left and catering [00:05:31] to some of the worst people on the [00:05:32] planet. [00:05:34] Hey Ben, as a Mets fan, I can relate to [00:05:36] the pain you're feeling with how poorly [00:05:37] your White Socks are doing. What are [00:05:38] your thoughts on them somehow being [00:05:39] worse than the A's? The White Sox are [00:05:40] terrible. Now, I will say that at the [00:05:42] very beginning of the season, I said [00:05:43] they were going to be historically [00:05:44] terrible. And I was kind of there for [00:05:46] it. I was kind of rooting for it because [00:05:47] here's the thing. If you're a fan of a [00:05:49] team, you don't want them just to be [00:05:50] middling terrible. You want them to be [00:05:52] historically awful, right? Either be [00:05:54] like the very best or be the very worst, [00:05:56] but don't be like the third worst. [00:05:58] That's kind of the idea. Now, they're [00:05:59] not going to get any draft picks out of [00:06:00] it, but I will say that there is [00:06:02] pressure on the White Sox to not be this [00:06:03] terrible. They just lost their 21st [00:06:04] straight game the other night, which is [00:06:06] really astonishing. I mean, that is that [00:06:08] is a that is a showing right there. [00:06:09] Impressive, impressive stuff. [00:06:14] See, dailywware.com/subscribe. By the [00:06:15] way, again, I'm saying this for all for [00:06:17] the benefit of all the people who are [00:06:18] viewing this live over at the at the [00:06:20] YouTubes and other places. [00:06:22] If heaven forbid Trump loses, who do I [00:06:24] think the GOP will or should turn to? I [00:06:26] think it's way too early for that. I [00:06:27] think it is way too early to have that [00:06:28] conversation. First of all, with the [00:06:30] help of God, Trump should win. There's [00:06:32] really no excuse for him not to win. [00:06:33] He's running against an incredibly [00:06:34] radical ticket led by an incredibly [00:06:36] radical and unlikable candidate. Now, [00:06:38] again, they are trying to make fetch [00:06:39] happen as has been said. Tim Walls [00:06:42] tonight, he did this rally where he kept [00:06:43] saying that Kla Harris, it's not that [00:06:45] she's strange or it's that she's filled [00:06:47] with joy. Don't you understand? She's [00:06:49] bringing joy back. Because when you see [00:06:52] Kla Harris awkwardly laughing and [00:06:54] cackling like a crazy person or dancing [00:06:56] super weirdly or creating sentence [00:06:59] structures that are [00:07:02] almost gothic in their intricacy. And [00:07:05] when you see that happening, you might [00:07:06] think that that's just a weird lady who [00:07:08] who has strange syntax and does dumb [00:07:10] stuff and and is really offputting. [00:07:12] Wrong. That's joy. That's joy. Okay. [00:07:15] Let's assume that that Trump loses. If [00:07:17] Trump were to lose, then I think there [00:07:19] is going to be a very rich debate that [00:07:22] happens on the right about what the [00:07:23] future of the Republican party ought to [00:07:25] look like. I don't even want to [00:07:27] countenance that right now. Right now, [00:07:29] it's time to win. Right now, it's time [00:07:30] for the right to come together and win. [00:07:33] If Trump loses, those conversations are [00:07:34] definitely going to happen and they're [00:07:35] going to need to happen because you [00:07:37] can't lose in 2018, 2020, 2021, 2022, [00:07:39] and 2024 and somehow not change course. [00:07:42] That is just not the You got to win. You [00:07:44] got to win. That's the only way to stop [00:07:45] the bad guys here. You got to win. [00:07:49] As an owner of a machine welding shop, [00:07:51] what differences would we see in [00:07:52] manufacturing between Kamla and Trump? [00:07:55] So, yeah, I think that Trump is [00:07:58] obviously very pro- industry. Trump is [00:08:00] obviously very pro- energy and energy [00:08:02] tends to have a lot of industrial jobs [00:08:04] attached to it. So, there's that. Donald [00:08:07] Trump is very anti-China, so you will [00:08:09] see some tariffs on Chinese products and [00:08:10] goods. I think you would particularly [00:08:12] see that in the realm of steel where [00:08:13] China is the world's leading steel [00:08:15] producer, although it really isn't a [00:08:16] very amazing quality steel. So again, I [00:08:20] think that if you're a welder and you're [00:08:21] looking for a rising income, if you're [00:08:23] looking for better wages, if you're [00:08:24] looking for lower inflation, if you're [00:08:25] looking for better trade policy, Donald [00:08:28] Trump is probably the guy for you. [00:08:34] Let's see. I'm trying to understand the [00:08:36] presidency and how Dow being up at the [00:08:37] end of 2023 had people bragging but down [00:08:40] at the end of 2024 and it's not Biden's [00:08:42] fault. Well, again, I think that the [00:08:44] truth is that if we were really to [00:08:45] analyze this thing, you can't measure [00:08:48] the health of the economy simply by the [00:08:49] stock market because if you inflate the [00:08:51] currency and you throw a bunch of money [00:08:53] out there, people have to put the money [00:08:54] somewhere. It usually ends up in the [00:08:55] stock market. So, you get these giant [00:08:56] stock bubbles and they tend to hide [00:08:58] underlying structural weaknesses in the [00:09:00] economy. You also can't look at the [00:09:01] unemployment rate because you can [00:09:02] generate largecale employment by paying [00:09:05] people to do nothing. That's what the [00:09:06] Soviet Union did. The health of an [00:09:08] economy can be measured by whether [00:09:10] people's lives are getting better. [00:09:11] Whether they are able to get better [00:09:13] products and services and goods cheaper. [00:09:15] That is how you can tell whether an [00:09:17] economy is working or not. Is there a [00:09:18] high level of innovation? Is your life [00:09:20] better now than it was four years ago or [00:09:22] eight years ago or 30 years ago? This is [00:09:24] why whenever people talk about real [00:09:26] adjusted income from like 1980 versus [00:09:27] now, I'm like, well, we were better off [00:09:29] in 1980. None of you were better off in [00:09:30] 1980. You weren't. I'm sorry. You didn't [00:09:33] have a cell phone, right? You didn't [00:09:35] have a laptop. You didn't have any of [00:09:37] the amazing things that make your life [00:09:39] go today. Because the economy is not [00:09:41] about just the raw number of dollars in [00:09:42] your pocket. It's about what you can buy [00:09:44] with those dollars. [00:09:47] What is a proverb that I live by? Luck [00:09:49] is not a business plan is definitely [00:09:50] one. Also, you can't teach hungry is [00:09:52] another one. These are both sort of [00:09:55] business slogans that we've used at at [00:09:56] the Daily Wire to our great success. [00:09:58] Yeah, you don't like the shirt. I get [00:09:59] it. I get it, man. It's okay. And I was [00:10:02] told by my producers that I should put [00:10:03] on a different shirt before I got up [00:10:05] here, but frankly, I didn't care. And we [00:10:07] were already close to time to launch [00:10:09] this thing. And so, what you get is is [00:10:11] this very sophisticated golf shirt. And [00:10:13] if you don't like it from Bugattachi, [00:10:15] that that's you that's a you problem, my [00:10:16] friend. [00:10:18] Thanks for recommending a gentleman in [00:10:20] Moscow. It was phenomenal. Any other [00:10:21] similar suggestions? Uh, if you want a [00:10:23] more depressing version, I would suggest [00:10:25] Every Man Dies Alone, which is about a [00:10:27] couple that's trying to struggle its way [00:10:29] through the Nazi Reich, being part of [00:10:31] the resistance and finding love with [00:10:33] each other because of that. They It's a [00:10:34] It's an older couple and they have a son [00:10:36] who is a German soldier who who died in [00:10:38] the war. It's really good by Hans [00:10:40] Fatada, Every Man Dies Alone. Terrific, [00:10:41] terrific book. [00:10:45] Let's see. Would a rank choice system [00:10:48] make our political system better? Why or [00:10:50] why not? a rank choice system would make [00:10:53] it more interesting. I'm not necessarily [00:10:54] against rank choice voting. I know there [00:10:56] are a lot of people on the right who [00:10:57] are. I think that first pass, [00:10:59] particularly in in primaries, I think [00:11:01] rank choice voting would be really [00:11:02] interesting because it would allow [00:11:04] people to really prioritize how they're [00:11:06] going to how they're going to vote, [00:11:07] right? If you like a candidate, but you [00:11:08] don't think he's going to win, you might [00:11:10] still vote for that person number one. [00:11:12] And then you can instead of your vote [00:11:13] being tossed out, you get your your vote [00:11:15] still counts. I kind I in concept I [00:11:17] think conceptually rank choice voting [00:11:19] works better than it does in practice [00:11:20] but I'm not totally against it. [00:11:23] Give an update on our dog Happy. How is [00:11:25] he doing? He's doing really well. [00:11:27] Although I will say he is a picky eater [00:11:28] just like my kids. It's weird how this [00:11:30] dog has taken on many of the [00:11:31] characteristics of my children. He wants [00:11:33] to cuddle all the time. He's a really [00:11:35] really picky eater and all of of the [00:11:37] rest. Um one one of the things we've [00:11:39] been trying is putting a little bit of [00:11:41] cheese on top of his food. So not a [00:11:43] Jewish dog. Uh, so he's eating the [00:11:45] cheese and the meat together. And that [00:11:47] seems to get him to eat his food about [00:11:48] half the time. But, you know, my wife is [00:11:53] Moroccan. She's of Moroccan extraction. [00:11:55] And one thing that can be said about [00:11:57] Moroccan Jewish women is they want their [00:11:58] kids and their family members to eat and [00:12:00] eat well. And so, she worries very much [00:12:02] about the dog not eating. I'm like, [00:12:03] "He's a dog. He'll be fine." And she's [00:12:04] like, "No, no, he needs to eat." [00:12:10] Let's see. What is a good world history [00:12:13] book you recommend? Uh Paul Johnson's [00:12:15] book Modern Times is fantastic about the [00:12:17] the 20th century essentially. Uh Neil [00:12:21] Ferguson's books are terrific that there [00:12:24] there are so many great history books. [00:12:26] Will Durant's series on the history of [00:12:28] the world is excellent. [00:12:32] Weeding out the deep state. How long [00:12:33] will it take and how do you start? Well, [00:12:35] I mean, you start by actually running [00:12:36] down everybody you can get your hands on [00:12:38] in terms of their profile and the work [00:12:40] that they've done. You have to have a a [00:12:42] trusted mechanism by which to filter out [00:12:44] the people who you think are the most [00:12:46] nefarious inside the deep state. Then [00:12:48] you have to fire them. And that's why [00:12:49] you're starting to see a lot of talk [00:12:50] about whether Donald Trump will use [00:12:51] schedule 7 in order to fire federal [00:12:53] employees. [00:12:56] Evening bed. Indulge me in a cute baby [00:12:58] story. Well, I have a cute four-year-old [00:13:00] story. So, my my four-year-old and my [00:13:01] 8-year-old are becoming very very good [00:13:03] friends. And my four-year-old, my my [00:13:05] eight-year-old sometimes gets like [00:13:06] randomly ticked off at the [00:13:08] four-year-old. And I told the [00:13:10] four-year-old that she has a magic [00:13:11] power. And the magic power is that if [00:13:12] she hugs him, he'll be nice to her. And [00:13:13] it is 100% true. She'll go up to him [00:13:15] while he's like raging and she'll just [00:13:17] give him a hug and he'll stop [00:13:18] immediately. This morning, she turned to [00:13:20] me and she said, "Daddy, I have a secret [00:13:22] with my brother." I said, "Really? [00:13:24] What's your secret?" She's four. She [00:13:25] doesn't understand how secrets work. So [00:13:26] she's like, "My secret is when we grow [00:13:28] up, we're going to live next to each [00:13:29] other." It's like, "Ah, as a parent, [00:13:31] that's the best kind of thing." That's [00:13:32] the best kind of thing. As far as the [00:13:34] baby, the baby is almost walking. He is [00:13:36] pulling himself to standing and uh and [00:13:38] he's pushing himself around. He had a [00:13:40] haircut yesterday. So, I I love when the [00:13:41] kids get their haircuts. They look clean [00:13:43] and they look fresh and they're really [00:13:44] really cute. Unfortunately, he's also [00:13:45] running a one-on-one fever, which is, [00:13:47] you know, kids are sick all the time. [00:13:49] Like all the time. It's It's very [00:13:51] difficult. [00:13:54] Is the Harris Walls ticket the furthest [00:13:56] left ticket in American history? Uh [00:13:58] yeah. I mean, I think you'd be [00:13:59] hardressed to to find another ticket [00:14:01] that is as far left. The only possible [00:14:03] exception might be the McGovern campaign [00:14:07] from 1972. [00:14:09] With that said, remember it was 1972. [00:14:12] So, even the McGovern campaign of 1972 [00:14:14] wasn't as far-left socially as this [00:14:16] campaign is. [00:14:18] This is this is a wild left campaign. [00:14:20] And the attempt to paint it as moderate [00:14:21] is one of the great gaslighting attempts [00:14:23] I've ever seen in my life. [00:14:26] Is my wife Safari? she is which customs [00:14:29] do we follow? So the way that it works [00:14:30] is that we follow the Ashkanaz customs [00:14:34] because as the balab as the man of the [00:14:36] house we follow my family's customs [00:14:38] which unfortunately uh are the Ashkenaz [00:14:41] customs. With that said I I really see [00:14:43] no problem with if I went to my wife's [00:14:45] house and they were eating kit I I which [00:14:47] is um like beans on Passover. It's I [00:14:49] don't want to get into obs discussions [00:14:50] of of Jewish law here. We usually do by [00:14:53] the way for those who are watching this [00:14:54] for the first time. That very often [00:14:55] happens. you you many of our many of our [00:14:58] all access subscribers now know much [00:14:59] more about the intricacies of Jewish law [00:15:01] than most reformed Jews. With that said, [00:15:04] I'm not going to get into it that one [00:15:05] right now. [00:15:07] What do I think was my best book and why [00:15:09] I really like Right Side of History. I [00:15:10] think right Side of History is a really [00:15:11] good piece of work. I think it it it [00:15:13] starts with a very interesting thesis [00:15:16] which is that the inter the meaning lies [00:15:18] in the intersection of communal identity [00:15:20] and individual identity and what system [00:15:22] of life and what system of philosophy is [00:15:24] best geared toward facilitating both of [00:15:28] those things. And the argument that I [00:15:31] make is that Judeo-Christian moral [00:15:32] systems combined with Greek reason is [00:15:33] the apotheiois of of a system that [00:15:36] allows for both communal identity, which [00:15:38] presumably be duty, and individual [00:15:40] identity, which presumably would be [00:15:42] would be rights. [00:15:44] What do I think about the term America [00:15:45] first? It's it's semantically [00:15:46] overloaded. So, what I mean by that is [00:15:48] that it means something to some people [00:15:50] and something to other people. Sometimes [00:15:51] you'll say America first and what people [00:15:53] think you mean is Charles Lindberg or [00:15:55] the Gropers or something. And sometimes [00:15:57] they'll say America first and all you [00:15:58] really mean is that America's interests [00:16:00] should obviously be first when it comes [00:16:02] to foreign policy, which I think should [00:16:03] be inarguable. [00:16:06] My LSAT is tomorrow. Any last minute [00:16:08] tips? Um, no. I mean, at the last [00:16:10] minute, there's not much to do. Just try [00:16:11] to get yourself some sleep. I remember I [00:16:13] didn't sleep very well before my LSAT. [00:16:14] It's it's kind of nerve-wracking. All [00:16:16] right. And and then, you know, you're [00:16:17] sitting there for a while. So, I I I [00:16:19] would recommend some kind of good snacks [00:16:22] like some raisins or something kind of [00:16:23] slow release sugars. [00:16:29] Google says JD Vance is 5 foot7. I can't [00:16:31] believe that's right. JD [00:16:34] I don't think that's right at all. How [00:16:36] tall is JD Vance? Um [00:16:39] let's see. [00:16:41] No, that can't possibly be right. He's [00:16:43] almost as tall as as Trump. [00:16:46] Yeah, he's at least six foot for sure. [00:16:48] Like that that's that's not tall. That's [00:16:50] not true at all. [00:16:53] Sabaton is coming to LA October 15th. [00:16:54] That would be awesome. I'm not sure I'm [00:16:56] going to be in LA for that, but it would [00:16:58] be fun to show up at a Sabaton concert. [00:17:00] I'm not sure what the reception would [00:17:01] be. What's the crowd like? I've never [00:17:02] been to a Sabaton concert. And [00:17:04] obviously, I have to bring my [00:17:05] four-year-old because she is the uh she [00:17:07] is the the biggest Sabaton fan in the [00:17:09] family. As I've mentioned before, we've [00:17:11] discussed before who's going to, you [00:17:13] know, if if my kids could hire musicians [00:17:15] for their bar and bot mitzvah, what [00:17:16] would those look like? And so, my oldest [00:17:18] daughter is like, she's very into the [00:17:20] the Jewish music. She's like Morai [00:17:22] Shapiro. And then my son is like, I [00:17:25] don't know, maybe maybe Yakov Schweki. [00:17:28] And then my four-year-old's like, [00:17:29] Sabaton. [00:17:31] Which is hilarious. [00:17:38] Why are people saying I moved to Boca [00:17:39] Raton to be close to Mara Lago? I have [00:17:40] no idea. That's really stupid. It turns [00:17:42] out Florida is a super big state and [00:17:44] Mara Lago is not actually super close to [00:17:46] Boca Raton. Uh so that that is that is [00:17:49] inaccurate. [00:17:51] If I met you at the at the Ryman, would [00:17:53] you flex for me live in person? I [00:17:55] probably would. I probably would. I [00:17:57] know. Again, for for those who are new [00:17:59] here, that's a thing that probably will [00:18:00] happen. It will it will happen on this [00:18:02] live stream. I don't know how it became [00:18:04] a regular, you know, we'll just do it [00:18:05] now. I don't know how this became a [00:18:06] regular thing, but um it was in fact a u [00:18:10] probably two and a half years ago. It [00:18:12] started as a joke and it remains a [00:18:13] ridiculous joke where the gun show [00:18:15] happened. So, here we go. It's gun show [00:18:17] time. Let's just do this and be done. [00:18:22] behind. Okay, all done. No, I I So, [00:18:27] there is a custom again back to abstrus [00:18:29] Jewish commentary. There is a custom [00:18:31] some people have, not to cut their kids' [00:18:32] hair until they're three years old. We [00:18:33] don't hold by that. In fact, I hate [00:18:35] that. I'm I'm really not a fan. I think [00:18:37] that boys should look like boys. And [00:18:38] when you have boys who grow their hair [00:18:39] out until they are three years old, then [00:18:41] very often they're walking around. [00:18:42] People mistakenly think that they're [00:18:44] girls. I like my son to look like a man. [00:18:46] And he he does. He looks like a little [00:18:48] man. He's super cute. [00:18:54] Let's see. [00:18:57] Why are people saying JD Vance is weird? [00:18:59] Because they're trying to project Kla [00:19:01] Harris really is quite weird. So is Tim [00:19:02] Walls. And so they're trying to preempt [00:19:05] that by saying that JD Vance is weird. [00:19:07] And to the left, what they mean by weird [00:19:09] is pro-life and religious. That's what [00:19:11] they mean by weird always. So they think [00:19:13] like Mike Johnson is weird also. [00:19:14] Remember, they thought Mike Pence was [00:19:15] weird because Mike Pence had a rule that [00:19:18] he would not be alone in a room with a [00:19:19] woman. So, the left had a bizarre moral [00:19:21] system in which if you are alone in a [00:19:23] room with a woman and she accuses you of [00:19:25] sexual misconduct, she must [00:19:26] automatically be believed. And also, you [00:19:28] must be alone in a room with a woman. [00:19:31] That was their that was their bizarre [00:19:32] logic. So, basically, when they say [00:19:34] weirdo, they just mean religious person. [00:19:36] That's all they mean. And JD's a [00:19:38] religious guy. [00:19:41] Do I enjoy camping? No. I think camping [00:19:43] is what we built an entire civilization [00:19:45] to avoid. That's why we have houses with [00:19:48] roofs and all the rest. [00:19:52] What am I 10 out of 10 at? I feel like [00:19:54] I'm a pretty good parent and pretty good [00:19:55] husband. Um 10 out of 10 writing, [00:20:00] maybe debate. [00:20:02] I feel like I'm I'm pretty good at the [00:20:04] show. Like there there are a few things. [00:20:08] Evaluating Star Wars movies. [00:20:14] See, I'm scared for this recession. I'm [00:20:16] 24 and I want to go to law school next [00:20:17] year. What do I do? Help. So why are you [00:20:20] worried about a recession? You're going [00:20:22] to take out student loans anyway. And by [00:20:23] the time you finish law school, it's [00:20:24] going to be three years from now. So [00:20:26] don't worry about that. If I if I were [00:20:27] worried about law school, I'd be much [00:20:28] more worried about AI completely [00:20:29] destroying the entire legal industry. [00:20:31] That's what I would be worried about. I [00:20:32] mean, the fact is that the AI chat GPT [00:20:35] of it is is really quite good at [00:20:37] predictive text and really good at at a [00:20:39] lot of the stuff that that lawyers would [00:20:40] do. [00:20:44] What am I one out of 10 at? Many sports. [00:20:48] Many many sports [00:20:50] and pop culture. [00:20:58] Let's see. [00:21:02] starting law school in a couple weeks. [00:21:03] Any advice? Also, would DW ever do a [00:21:04] 1984 reboot? So, I loved law school, but [00:21:07] the way that the way that I did law [00:21:09] school is I would read the class [00:21:11] curriculum and then I would try to read [00:21:13] what the opponents thought. Uh, and and [00:21:16] that was a great way for me to educate [00:21:17] myself. It's great to read the opposite [00:21:19] curriculum, like what the left is [00:21:20] thinking about things, and then you read [00:21:21] the response. That gives you a really [00:21:23] well-rounded view of the law in a way [00:21:25] that the left really does not ever see. [00:21:34] Let's see. What is my impression of [00:21:36] Florida schools for my kids? I mean, [00:21:38] listen, I love Florida in terms of [00:21:40] education. Parents are given money to [00:21:42] pick where they send their kids. It is [00:21:44] just great. It is basically the opposite [00:21:46] of the rest of these um it's basically [00:21:49] the opposite of like Tim Walls's state [00:21:51] where he just gives out money to the [00:21:53] unions. [00:21:58] Why do I feel Trump is so slow attacking [00:22:00] Kamla's policies? I don't know, man. And [00:22:02] it's not really excusable. He needs to [00:22:04] be doing it every day, all day, all day [00:22:06] long. Meticulous. JD is doing it. JD is [00:22:08] doing a really good job of it. JD spent [00:22:10] all day attacking Kla Harris and Tim [00:22:11] Walls. Why isn't Trump doing that in a [00:22:14] meticulous way? Why isn't Why aren't [00:22:16] there a series of ads coming out from [00:22:17] the Trump campaign hitting YouTube right [00:22:19] now about Tim Walls? I don't understand. [00:22:21] It doesn't make any sense to me. Maybe [00:22:23] they're they're thinking is it's early [00:22:24] still. It's August. We're going to get [00:22:26] past the convention and then we'll hit [00:22:27] them with the the kitchen sink. But the [00:22:29] way that you define your opponents [00:22:30] obviously is as early as humanly [00:22:32] possible. [00:22:34] That is why that that is what they ought [00:22:36] to be doing. [00:22:40] How does the left seemingly portray the [00:22:41] leftist position as the normal default [00:22:43] position in society? Abortion up until [00:22:45] birth and transing kids is not a default [00:22:47] position because the left does have an [00:22:49] advantage in terms of what western [00:22:51] values have taken the for something [00:22:52] Jonathan height talks about in the [00:22:54] righteous mind. He makes the case that [00:22:56] most of the west has been taught that [00:22:58] there are only two real values. And [00:23:00] those two real values are fairness and [00:23:02] compassion. And if you believe that [00:23:04] those are the only two values, then the [00:23:05] left sounds really good to you because [00:23:07] by fairness they mean equality of [00:23:08] outcome. And by compassion they mean, [00:23:10] you know, just being nice. And just [00:23:12] being nice means being non-judgmental [00:23:14] and all the rest of this sort of stuff. [00:23:16] So it's it's really um yeah they have an [00:23:19] advantage because it's an emotional [00:23:20] appeal as opposed to making the argument [00:23:22] that for example particular rules are [00:23:25] good for a society and necessary for [00:23:26] society and those have unfortunately [00:23:28] some individual cost that is true of [00:23:29] literally every law but that's that's a [00:23:32] harder argument to make and requires you [00:23:33] to be more dispassionate which is not [00:23:34] what politics is good at. [00:23:37] Can Trump have a bad debate against [00:23:38] Kamla? I mean he he certainly could and [00:23:41] this is one of the reasons why I've [00:23:42] encouraged Donald Trump not to do one [00:23:43] debate against Kamla. You should say, [00:23:44] "Let's debate every single week." Every [00:23:47] week. Everyone knows what Trump's going [00:23:48] to do. Everyone knows what Trump's going [00:23:49] to say. She can't just keep scoring [00:23:51] points on him because there just aren't [00:23:53] that many points to score. He's always [00:23:55] Trump. But he can score points on her [00:23:56] and he can really hurt her. I think one [00:23:58] of the things that really hurt her in [00:23:59] 2019 2020 is that the Democrats had [00:24:01] about 272 debates. And by the time he [00:24:04] got to debate number 200, she was toast. [00:24:06] She was finished. Tulsi Gabbard, you [00:24:08] know, when Tulsi Gabbard finished her [00:24:09] off on the stage, that was already after [00:24:11] Kala Harris had begun sinking in the [00:24:13] polls due to all the other hits that she [00:24:14] was taking. [00:24:19] Okay, it looks like there are a lot of [00:24:20] people who are who are very big on um [00:24:23] camping. So, I apologize for my dislike [00:24:25] of I've never tried it. Maybe it's [00:24:27] amazing. Um but, you know, I like taking [00:24:29] a shower before I go to sleep. I like [00:24:31] being clean. I like sleeping in a in a [00:24:32] comfy bed. I don't know. Call me crazy, [00:24:35] but sleeping in the middle of the forest [00:24:37] with the danger of bears all around or [00:24:40] alligators as the case may be in Florida [00:24:42] and bugs everywhere and dirt sounds [00:24:44] horrible to me. [00:24:49] Do I play video games? I don't have time [00:24:51] for anything, man. [00:24:57] How could I cut hair in the nine days? I [00:24:59] didn't cut hair in the nine days. What [00:25:00] are you talking about? I said that I [00:25:01] said my kids got a haircut the other [00:25:02] day. the other day. We weren't there [00:25:04] yet. [00:25:09] God's creation beckons. Listen, I love [00:25:11] God's creation. God's creation is [00:25:12] awesome. I just don't want to sleep in [00:25:13] it. [00:25:15] Have I read meditations by Marcus [00:25:17] Aurelius and what do I think about it? [00:25:18] So, stoicism is great. It's fascinating. [00:25:21] It works on the individual level. It [00:25:22] totally does not work on a societal [00:25:24] level. You have to have something higher [00:25:25] to fight for rather than just grin and [00:25:27] bear it and do your duty. Like, you have [00:25:29] to do a duty for what? And the thing [00:25:31] that stoicism never really answers is [00:25:32] why must you do your duty. They say that [00:25:34] the best way to it's almost Buddhist the [00:25:36] best way to deal with tragedy and [00:25:38] difficulty is to kind of suck it up [00:25:39] which I generally agree with or change [00:25:41] your perspective which again I generally [00:25:43] agree that's not the way you can build a [00:25:45] society or make people excited about [00:25:46] living which is something that uh you [00:25:48] know people actually are seeking. [00:25:54] What recommendations do I have on [00:25:55] presidential memoirs or autobiographies? [00:25:57] Calvin Kulage has a diary that's [00:25:59] fantastic. Ulyses Srant's memoirs are [00:26:01] phenomenal. [00:26:05] Trying to think which other presidents [00:26:07] all the modern presidents memoirs kind [00:26:09] of suck. Barack Obama's 83 different [00:26:11] memoirs are all awful. [00:26:14] Clinton's book no good. Um Reagan's [00:26:19] Reagan's Notes to Nancy and all of that, [00:26:21] those are really interesting because [00:26:22] those weren't written for publication. [00:26:23] All the stuff that wasn't written for [00:26:25] publication is really is really good. [00:26:26] There's some Nixon stuff that's actually [00:26:27] quite good. [00:26:33] Let's see. [00:26:36] Will this be the first election where [00:26:37] both campaigns are doing everything they [00:26:39] can to lose? Sometimes it feels like [00:26:40] that, man. Sometimes it feels like this [00:26:42] is just a game of hand of of hold my [00:26:44] beer. It's like, well, what if what if [00:26:47] we run a dead person? Oh, yeah. Oh, [00:26:49] yeah. Well, what if I just randomly [00:26:51] ramble for 93 minutes at the convention? [00:26:54] Oh, yeah, man. Well, wh what if we run a [00:26:56] charmless heritan for president? Oh, [00:26:59] yeah. Well, well, what if I what if I [00:27:01] ask whether she's black? Oh, yeah. Well, [00:27:03] what if I select a rando from Minnesota [00:27:05] who's a socialist? Like, what are you [00:27:06] guys doing? Like, it's right there, man. [00:27:08] Just grab it. It's right there. Pretty [00:27:10] amazing. [00:27:14] Why did you see this live chat on [00:27:15] YouTube? Because as we stated at the [00:27:17] very top, we're going to make some of [00:27:19] these live chats possible for people who [00:27:21] are not on the all access so that they [00:27:23] will be drawn like a moth to the flame [00:27:26] to subscribe over at [00:27:27] dailywire.com/subscribe. Because one of [00:27:29] the things that all of our YouTubers [00:27:30] will notice is that I'm answering zero [00:27:32] of your questions. None of them. Big [00:27:34] zero. None. Nada. You know why? Because [00:27:38] the monies, my friends, because we can't [00:27:40] bring you this stuff just for free. We [00:27:42] have a big company with hundreds of [00:27:44] employees and we're bringing you stuff [00:27:46] from morning until the evening and the [00:27:48] only way that that can happen is if you [00:27:50] become a member and help us out. Have I [00:27:52] read Benjamin Netanyahu's book? Yes, [00:27:54] that is a a good political memoir. It's [00:27:55] it's a very very readable a very [00:27:57] readable memoir. [00:28:00] The best book, by the way, on uh on [00:28:02] Israeli politics is a book called The [00:28:04] Prime Ministers where there's a guy who [00:28:05] served with like 10 of them in a row uh [00:28:07] and uh and he writes about each one of [00:28:10] them. It's really really good. You're 14 [00:28:12] years old. Which is better, Tennessee or [00:28:13] Florida? I haven't spent enough time in [00:28:15] Tennessee to really make the case for [00:28:17] Tennessee, so I'm going to say Florida [00:28:18] because Florida's awesome. Also, best [00:28:20] governor in America. Although Tennessee [00:28:22] does have a really good Billy's a good [00:28:23] governor. [00:28:28] Will Trump likely be jailed? Um, I doubt [00:28:31] that Trump is going to be jailed. I [00:28:33] think it's very likely they'll put him [00:28:34] under some sort of house arrest. I I [00:28:36] don't think at this point in time. I I [00:28:37] think if you were widely leading Joe [00:28:39] Biden, then they would make a last [00:28:40] stitch attempt to jail him. I think [00:28:41] right now, because they believe Kamla is [00:28:43] going to win, I find it difficult to [00:28:44] believe that the judge is going to jail [00:28:46] him and then give him a shot in the arm [00:28:47] at the unfairness of it all. [00:28:51] Who was worse in World War II, Japan or [00:28:53] Germany? Man, they were both awful. And [00:28:57] again, Nazis, Holocaust, [00:29:01] evil. Yes. Also, Japan, horrific. Japan [00:29:05] probably killed 28 million people [00:29:07] between the late 20s and 1945. Truly an [00:29:10] awful, evil, terrible regime. A [00:29:13] population that was so thoroughly [00:29:14] indoctrinated that when the Americans [00:29:17] would land on Japanese islands in in the [00:29:19] latter part of the war, the population [00:29:21] would kill themselves and their own [00:29:22] children in order to avoid surrendering [00:29:25] to the Americans. I mean truly the [00:29:28] treatment of P. If you were a P and you [00:29:30] fell into the hands of the Japanese or [00:29:31] fell in the hands of the Germans, you [00:29:32] definitely wanted to be in German hands. [00:29:34] question the treatment of PS there [00:29:36] there's an a very good and extremely [00:29:38] dark book called Japan's Holocaust which [00:29:40] is all about Japan's horrific invasion [00:29:44] of China the the treatment of of the [00:29:47] Philippines the their treatment of all [00:29:49] the various territories they conquered [00:29:50] and uh truly horrifying stuff really [00:29:53] really horrifying stuff like rape was a [00:29:55] way of war for for a lot of Japanese [00:29:58] troops like trul like pretty much [00:30:00] approved at the highest levels true [00:30:02] brutality and evil [00:30:07] Let's see. Call Trump and tell him the [00:30:10] points he needs to drive home. Is that [00:30:12] even possible? It's not like Trump has [00:30:13] me on speed dial or something. Um, but [00:30:14] I'm sure that his advisers are telling [00:30:16] him the same thing. The question, as [00:30:17] always, for Donald Trump, is can he [00:30:19] control his temper to the extent [00:30:20] necessary to actually be meticulous in [00:30:22] his attack. That's always been the [00:30:24] problem for Trump. If Trump had one iota [00:30:26] of self-control, he never would have [00:30:28] lost the presidency in 2020. [00:30:32] Will there be a special appearance by [00:30:34] Dr. Dreel at the Ryman? I don't know. [00:30:36] Maybe. I don't know. Can't say. [00:30:46] I'm leaving from Chicago to Nashville on [00:30:47] the 14th and moving to college on the [00:30:49] 15th. My last day before the move will [00:30:51] be spent meeting you guys at the Ryman. [00:30:52] Well, that's awesome. I can't wait to [00:30:54] see you there. That'll be great. [00:31:00] Maybe YouTube is blocking Trump ads. I [00:31:01] really doubt that. I I don't think [00:31:02] that's the case. I think that'd be a [00:31:04] massive national story if that were [00:31:05] true. [00:31:09] Is there any really crazy conspiracy [00:31:11] that I actually believe? Again, my [00:31:14] craziest conspiracy theory is really not [00:31:15] a conspiracy theory. It's just sort of a [00:31:17] one-off, which is I think Justin Trudeau [00:31:18] is is uh is clearly the son of Fidel [00:31:21] Castro. And that's just because I have [00:31:23] eyeballs and they look exactly the same. [00:31:25] And he looks nothing like Pierre at all. [00:31:30] Oh, see I I have some allies in the in [00:31:32] the camping is bad group. I see. Camping [00:31:35] equals bugs. Thanks. No, agree. Camping [00:31:38] is horrible. Oh, I am noticing that [00:31:40] there are a lot of the ladies who are [00:31:42] anti-amping. So, I guess I'm just not [00:31:44] man enough for for sleeping amidst the [00:31:46] dust and the bugs and the bears and or [00:31:50] the alligators. [00:31:53] Wait, are you kidding? I went to one [00:31:55] Sabaton show. There wasn't a lot of [00:31:56] moshing. And they had life-sized tanks [00:31:57] on stage with battlefield artillery. [00:32:00] What? What? Oh my god, my kids will die. [00:32:04] They'll love that so much. They will be [00:32:06] the only four and eight-year-olds at the [00:32:07] place. I'll bring my my 10-year-old as [00:32:09] well. Wow. I I assume these are not [00:32:11] child-friendly shows, but I don't care [00:32:12] because that's awesome. My son will Oh, [00:32:14] my son loves military tech. It's it's [00:32:16] his jam. It's the thing he loves most in [00:32:19] the world. In fact, the other day, [00:32:20] another kid story, my four-year-old [00:32:22] turns to my son who's eight, and she [00:32:24] says, "For your birthday, I want to get [00:32:25] you an F-35 [00:32:27] and he's like, "Will it come with a [00:32:29] nuclear weapon?" And she's like, "Yes." [00:32:33] And I like I love both of you. You're [00:32:35] both adorable. Also, defense for the [00:32:38] win. [00:32:41] Ben is a glamper. Yes, I am. Listen, I [00:32:44] I'm secure enough in my own masculinity [00:32:46] that I don't care about any of that [00:32:47] crap. You know what I like? I like nice [00:32:49] things. When when I go to the bar, you [00:32:51] know, which is never, but when I when [00:32:53] I'm at a restaurant and people ask what [00:32:54] sort of cocktail I would like, the first [00:32:56] thing I say is, "Give me your giriest [00:32:58] drink. It is the sweetest and the [00:33:00] sweetest and most colorful drink. Bring [00:33:01] it to me." And and that's what they do [00:33:04] because that always tastes good. You [00:33:05] know what doesn't taste good? [00:33:06] Turppentine, which is what everybody [00:33:08] pretends to like. You're all liars. Like [00:33:10] all the people who are like, "I love [00:33:10] salad." No, you don't. You like the [00:33:12] stuff that's on the salad. If you love [00:33:13] salad, you'd walk around just like with [00:33:15] a like a chunk of Roma, just chomping on [00:33:18] that every so often. No one has ever [00:33:20] done that. At least no one happy. [00:33:24] Will the White Sox win before Kla Harris [00:33:26] takes a question from the media? Yeah, I [00:33:28] think probably. I think probably. [00:33:34] Shapiro ate by a gator. Yeah, I mean [00:33:36] Josh Shapiro got ate by a gator. Again, [00:33:39] no relation. It would have been very [00:33:41] very annoying if I had to deal with four [00:33:42] years of Josh Shapiro jokes. That would [00:33:46] have been very irritating. By the way, I [00:33:47] know like at least two people named Josh [00:33:49] Shapiro. This is like a very common name [00:33:50] in the Jewish community. [00:33:56] What does a post kamas Israel war middle [00:33:58] east look like under a Trump [00:33:59] administration? It looks like an Israel [00:34:00] that has made peace with Saudi Arabia. [00:34:03] an Israel that is that is moving toward [00:34:05] a warmer peace with Egypt which would [00:34:07] reorient itself away from Hamas and away [00:34:09] from Iran. It looks like Qatar probably [00:34:11] reorienting itself away from Iran if the [00:34:14] Trump administration puts back in place [00:34:15] the sanctions and shows strength to [00:34:17] Iran. [00:34:19] Tik Tok is flooded with anti-Trump ads [00:34:21] again. I don't doubt it. Did I watch the [00:34:23] House of the Dragon finale? I did. Is [00:34:25] there a season review coming? There is. [00:34:27] We filmed it today. [00:34:33] Not good, gang. There's a spoiler alert. [00:34:38] What three words can I use to make any [00:34:40] woman fall in love with me? [00:34:45] Three words to make any woman fall in [00:34:47] love with you. That's that's a that's a [00:34:49] difficult one. That's a that that is [00:34:51] that is difficult. Um [00:34:55] I can do it in four. [00:34:59] I'm 93 and loaded. [00:35:02] How's that? That's that's that's a con [00:35:04] that's a contraction. So, it's actually [00:35:05] five. Or how about 90 93? Does that [00:35:08] count as It depends on your word count, [00:35:10] but 93 and loaded is a pretty good [00:35:11] angle. I'm just joking, guys. [00:35:22] Let's see. [00:35:26] What do I think about John Stewart's [00:35:27] advocacy for 911 first responders and [00:35:29] war veterans health benefits? That's all [00:35:30] great. That's all fine. I mean, that's [00:35:31] not what I dislike about John Stewart. I [00:35:33] like I just like the fact that he's a [00:35:34] schmuck. That's not the same thing. [00:35:38] Okay. Top three classical playlist for a [00:35:40] girl you're trying to impress. I'm [00:35:41] assuming you're looking for like [00:35:42] romantic music probably. So, sometimes [00:35:45] folks, just warning, I will sometimes [00:35:48] play music for you. Um, [00:35:52] let's uh Okay. So, classical music. I'm [00:35:56] trying. So, [00:36:00] Let's see. So the the ones that are very [00:36:02] famous of course Rahmanov um [00:36:06] variations on a rap city by Pag uh by [00:36:09] Paganini. Uh that that one is um [00:36:14] right this one [00:36:16] [Music] [00:36:24] they use it in somewhere in time. All [00:36:32] right. So, this is a good one. Okay. [00:36:35] Now, uh let's see. Here's a here's [00:36:37] another one. [00:36:42] Let's see. [00:36:51] This is [00:36:53] [Music] [00:37:06] This is um Shopan piano conerto number [00:37:08] two second movement largetto. [00:37:12] [Music] [00:37:35] [Applause] [00:37:44] [Music] [00:37:50] actually. I'd recommend maybe the [00:37:51] romance from the piano coner number one [00:37:53] which is also super famous. You probably [00:37:54] heard I think they use this in Truman [00:37:56] show. Yeah, this is right. It was number [00:37:58] one. That's what I was looking for. So [00:38:01] again themes on a variations on a theme [00:38:04] by Paganini by Rahmanov. And then this [00:38:06] is Romance largetto from Shopan piano [00:38:09] conterto number one movement two. [00:38:19] I'll let it play for like 30 seconds. [00:38:20] It'll be okay, guys. [00:38:33] Am I going to be making any speeches in [00:38:35] the near future? Many, many, many. [00:38:37] There's a lot coming for the rest of [00:38:39] this election cycle. [00:38:41] This will be relaxing while I talk about [00:38:42] Middle Eastern relations. Why do you [00:38:44] think Iran is waiting so long to respond [00:38:46] and attack Israel? Uh I think that Iran [00:38:48] is waiting so long to respond and attack [00:38:50] Israel because I think they're not quite [00:38:52] sure what they want to do. I think that [00:38:54] they feel like the longer they drag this [00:38:55] out, the more Israel is going to have to [00:38:56] prepare. But they are very very hesitant [00:38:58] at this point to go super hard because [00:39:00] if they go super hard, all the assets [00:39:01] are in place to wreck them. So I think [00:39:03] that it's much more likely that they [00:39:05] kind of sporadically hit over the course [00:39:06] of the following week. [00:39:09] [Music] [00:39:10] Let's see. [00:39:14] Here's where we get to the actual theme. [00:39:15] Here [00:39:23] is Christian Zimmerman is the pianist [00:39:25] here. [00:39:30] See, [00:39:33] have I ever been to China? No. And I'd [00:39:35] be very much afraid of them bugging [00:39:37] every device that I own. [00:39:38] [Music] [00:39:41] Favorite baseball movie, Field of Dreams [00:39:42] or 61. [00:39:48] [Music] [00:39:52] Let's see. Is there a book written about [00:39:54] the life of Ben? There is not. No one [00:39:56] has yet seen fit to write a biography [00:39:57] about me. Nor do nor do I blame them for [00:39:59] the lack thereof. [00:40:03] What are the most not boring [00:40:04] intellectual books? Oh man, I don't [00:40:07] know. It depends on what you're talking [00:40:08] about. [00:40:09] Um, I mean, give me a topic and I'll [00:40:11] give you a not boring book on it. I've [00:40:13] been paying paying almost since the [00:40:15] beginning. No regurts. I appreciate [00:40:16] that. Thank you. My plan on watching [00:40:18] reviewing Rings of Power. Do I have to? [00:40:20] Probably. Yeah, probably I will. You [00:40:23] know, that's how it goes. [00:40:26] You're going to quit all Access if you [00:40:28] if I don't fire NLES before your [00:40:30] subscription expires. Well, how about I [00:40:31] dare you? How about this? I mean, that's [00:40:33] sort of an that's sort of probably [00:40:35] that's kind of an incentive structure [00:40:36] for me not to fire NLES because the [00:40:38] temptation of you sticking around long [00:40:40] enough for me to fire NLES might keep [00:40:41] you on the hook here. Chocolate or [00:40:43] coffee? Uh, I'm a coffee person. I've [00:40:45] become that over the past couple of [00:40:47] years. Why don't I look at the camera [00:40:49] when I answer questions because I'm [00:40:50] looking at the text over here. [00:40:54] See, my church said God hates conflict. [00:40:57] Thought uh [00:41:00] with whom? With whom? God also says that [00:41:03] we have a duty to hate evil. So conflict [00:41:05] with evil, God doesn't hate. God hates [00:41:07] useless conflict. [00:41:13] Uh let's see. Will they debate before [00:41:16] September? I think probably they will. [00:41:19] Certainly Trump wants to. May maybe not [00:41:20] before September. I mean the DNC is like [00:41:22] end of August, so probably in September. [00:41:26] Can I make Matt watch more anime? I [00:41:29] cannot make Matt do anything. [00:41:36] Why is Matt Walsh's movie in theaters? [00:41:38] Because we want broader exposure. We [00:41:40] want to challenge Hollywood on its own [00:41:42] terms. Which is why you should go buy a [00:41:44] ticket right now. Like pre-order a [00:41:45] ticket. They should be available soon. [00:41:47] That's how we let the theaters know to [00:41:48] exhibit it. We have many theaters are [00:41:50] already going to exhibit it, but the [00:41:51] more people see it, the more and more [00:41:53] theaters want to have it available in [00:41:55] your town. [00:41:59] Let's see. What is my workout routine? [00:42:02] It depends on the day. Today was leg [00:42:03] day, so I'm a little tired. Never skip [00:42:06] leg day, in the words of Lego Batman. [00:42:11] Best book to explain the history of [00:42:12] America, a history of the American [00:42:14] people by Paul Johnson is fantastic. [00:42:17] Larry Schwher has a really, really good [00:42:19] book on the history of the United [00:42:20] States. And if you want like a very very [00:42:23] encapsulated history of the United [00:42:24] States in like one chapter, then how to [00:42:25] destroy America in three easy steps has [00:42:27] a nice encapsulated history. [00:42:35] It's wild how the media memory hold the [00:42:37] assassination attempt. That is insane. [00:42:38] That is insane. We would never hear the [00:42:40] end of that. If that if that were Joe [00:42:41] Biden, that would never have been the [00:42:43] end of it. Like for the rest of our [00:42:44] lives, it would have been Remember that [00:42:45] time somebody tried to shoot Joe Biden? [00:42:47] Donald Trump gets shot in the ear. He [00:42:49] almost gets his head blown off and the [00:42:50] entire country's like, "Wait, what [00:42:52] happened now? Like, did that like when [00:42:53] did that [00:42:57] fifth grade students call Kamla Dumala?" [00:43:01] They ain't wrong. [00:43:03] Take her off that teleprompter and she's [00:43:04] got troubles. [00:43:07] There's a reason Hogan's hero is not set [00:43:08] in a Japanese prison camp. Yes, that is [00:43:10] that is true. That is accurate. [00:43:17] H how many hours do I read per day? [00:43:19] Well, there's like audio reading, which [00:43:20] is when I'm working out very often, I [00:43:22] have an audio book on or if I'm in the [00:43:23] car. Uh and there's like reading [00:43:25] reading. I would say between audio [00:43:26] reading and reading reading, you're [00:43:28] talking, [00:43:30] are you talking about the news or just [00:43:31] books? If you're talking about like [00:43:32] including news, you're probably talking [00:43:34] at least three to four hours a day. If [00:43:35] you're talking about just books, you're [00:43:37] probably talking somewhere in the two to [00:43:39] two and a half hour range. [00:43:42] Have I seen it? Am I racist? I have. In [00:43:44] fact, I'm a producer on the film. So, [00:43:46] yes, that's part of the job. [00:43:48] A fun fact, Tim Walls and Kamla are the [00:43:51] same age. That is a really not fun fact. [00:43:53] Thank you. What book should I recommend [00:43:55] about the rise of the Bolshvix? Uh, the [00:43:56] best book, single volume on the Russian [00:43:58] Revolution is by a historian named [00:43:59] Richard Pipes. It is excellent. Very, [00:44:00] very good. [00:44:06] Do I see the possibility of Trump [00:44:07] leading by far again in the national [00:44:08] polls? I think it'd be unlikely that he [00:44:10] leads by big in the national polls, but [00:44:12] I I do see a possibility that if ever [00:44:14] Kla Harris has to answer a question, it [00:44:15] will go very poorly for her. Remember, [00:44:17] she's had this extremely hot streak for [00:44:19] like three weeks almost at this point, [00:44:21] and she still has not been asked a [00:44:22] question, and she's still up like two to [00:44:24] three points in the national polling by [00:44:25] most of the data. That is that is not [00:44:28] enough for her to claim victory at this [00:44:30] point. All righty folks, we reached the [00:44:31] end of this all access. Now remember, we [00:44:34] made this available for free over at the [00:44:35] YouTubes and other places so that you [00:44:37] would know what you are missing. If you [00:44:39] want to have your question answered, all [00:44:41] you have to do is go become an all [00:44:42] accessess member. And then we do this [00:44:43] like every single week. We answer dumb [00:44:46] questions and smart questions and I give [00:44:47] dumb answers and a few somewhat smart [00:44:49] answers. And you you'll love it. You [00:44:51] won't regret it. Go check it out right [00:44:53] now over at dailywware.com/subscribe. [00:44:55] See you here in a
