Summary

Comedian Arynne Wexler discusses her transition from Wall Street finance to stand-up comedy, exploring why secular Jews and liberals are shifting right politically. The episode covers cultural decline, government waste, media bias, and the disconnect between progressive rhetoric and actual policy outcomes.

Insights
  • Secular Jews increasingly vote left while religious Jews vote right, creating a paradox where assimilationist Jews support movements that exclude them (e.g., pro-Palestinian activism)
  • Government inefficiency and waste undermine progressive tax-and-spend arguments; citizens notice when politicians ask for more money while mismanaging existing budgets
  • Comedy requires truth-telling; audiences reject performative outrage and respond to genuine observation regardless of political alignment
  • The left's cultural dominance in entertainment stems from 75+ years of institutional investment, not ideological superiority; conservatives abandoned these spaces
  • Suburban mothers voted Trump in 2024 primarily to escape social pressure and permission structures that made conservative voting feel morally wrong
Trends
Liberal-to-conservative political migration among educated professionals, particularly women and minoritiesCollapse of mainstream media credibility; documented bias (75-person anti-Trump division at ABC) now openly discussedGenerational shift: Gen Z audiences rejecting performative activism in comedy and demanding authenticity over ideological alignmentGovernment bloat and administrative overhead now exceeds service delivery; cost-per-student and cost-per-outcome metrics show no correlation with spendingSanctuary city policies creating political liability as violent crime by undocumented immigrants forces progressive politicians into defensive posturesWeaponization of victim narratives; progressive politicians now blame victims for crime (wrong place/wrong time) rather than address root causesConservative content creators gaining audience share as late-night comedy ratings collapse due to perceived biasWealth inequality rhetoric divorced from economic reality; progressive solutions (wealth taxes, universal programs) fail cost-benefit analysis

Thanks for telling the friend. Comedian, political commentator. Erin Wexler is joining me. She's got dates. She's touring, doing stand-up. And you can go to her website, erinwexler.com. It's A-R-Y-N-N-E, unusual spelling for Erin. And then Wexler. Pretty easy. W-E-X. Good to see you. Great to see you, Adam. Thanks for having me. Yeah. So you start off, I hear you went to University of Pennsylvania. Yes, sir. Which is an Ivy League school, right? Yeah, but don't hold it against me. No one's perfect. I remember playing the University of Pennsylvania with Dr. Drew a million years ago, and he was very sick for the weekend of travel, like throwing up and had a fever and everything, and sort of had to drag him out on stage. But I remember being from North Hollywood, Ivy League to me was always, you know, was Harvard and Brown. And like I knew about those places, but a Yale, but I didn't know U-Pen. And it could somehow get, I mean, I'm from North Hollywood. I don't know anything. But that's a prestigious school. It is. A lot of people also think it's Penn State. They'll talk to me about football and like, no, not that Penn. And I did go to Wharton undergrad and, you know, who also went there. Let's see. That person's name would be Kamala Harris. No, it would be Donald Trump. Oh, that's right. She worked at the McDonald's in Canada. That's right. He went to Wharton. What I loved though as the president of Penn was a, when I was there, was a very liberal woman named Amy Gutman. And she actually wanted to becoming ambassador to Germany under Biden. And she really thought Hillary was going to win. And she always wanted Penn to be like Harvard, Yale Princeton, where they had all these presidents, you know, that they could point to. And then we finally got a president from Penn. And it was Donald Trump. And so they wouldn't acknowledge it. Now Wharton is Harvard, right? Or is that Penn too? No, it's Penn. I went to Wharton. Yeah. You did Penn and Wharton is Penn. Yes, it's part of Penn. Okay. I didn't, for some reason, I thought it was Harvard, but I was probably just ivy, like someone said, and then I did my stupid math. The people you see on Wall Street. Yeah. So it's good to have that background. You must have been a good student and your parents probably devastated now, but had high hopes for you at some point. No, no, they're happy with what I'm doing now. They are. Yes. Oh, good. But a lot of people thought I was very crazy to do this path when I first started, because I first out of school, I worked at a boutique investment bank named Goldman Sachs. Never heard of it. It's probably never heard of it. Yeah. And then from there, I worked in tech for a while. I worked in AI before people knew what AI was. But I was always like this. I was always known in tech and finance and college. I was always the crazy controversial funding Republican girl. We used to say Republican before it became a dirty word. Yes. Now it's all right. Something, something. Yeah. Yeah. You know, it's funny. It, it takes a lot of work to do comedy. I kind of realized there's a work ethic issue. You know, you, you don't have that problem because you're a good student and everything. Comedians are traditionally bad students, so they have a weak work ethic. But I was driving here and I was just listening to Sirius satellite radio and it was on the 101 Stern's second station and they play all these flashbacks. They just play reruns of old stuff randomly, I guess. I just tuned it in and it was from 2002 and it was Miss Howard Stern competition in Las Vegas. And I was listening to me from 2002 in Las Vegas for the, for the Stern show. And I, then I had this flashback where I was like, what is it? I remember that day. I remember how it went. So I was working at night doing a radio show called Love Line from 10 to midnight, every night. That was a syndicated show. And then I was working during the day. I would have been working on the man show, but Stern called and he said, we're doing Miss Howard Stern in Vegas and we want you to be a part of it. And I said, well, I work at night at 10 o'clock at night. And then I also have to go to work in the morning. So I can't really go stay in Vegas for a day or two and do it. But what time are you guys taping it or something? And he said, oh, we'll start at like, I don't know, five in the afternoon or six in the afternoon, we'll go for three or four hours. I said, well, I think what I could do is drive to Vegas because I can't fly. It's not going to be any flights out or flights back or schedules are not going to work, but I could drive to Vegas. Like if I left LA at noon, I could drive there and then be there by like 430 or five and then do your show from like five to nine or 10 or something like that. Then I could go to an affiliate we have in Vegas and do Love Line from 10 p.m. to midnight. And then when I was done with that, I could just drive home. And so I left LA at noon and I got home about five in the morning and all. And I only did it because I wanted to do Stern show and I didn't, there was no flights and I couldn't stay over or anything. But I also thought, you got to kind of want to do that if you do stand up. Yes, people don't realize, I didn't even realize how much work it is. I only started, I'll say this on your show, even though if it's so many people advise me not to say this, but I just, I don't pretend. I only started doing stand up six months ago. Oh really? Yeah. And you got all those viral clips up there. And it's really taken off. I mean, I'd like to think I was, I wasn't always funny. Like as a child, I wasn't like the funny kid. I was like funny looking, which is why I'm funny now. But I was funny for a while. I've been doing funny videos on Instagram. How's your, very attractive. So how is it you're a funny looking when you're a kid? I just had a normal, like I'm a kid of the early 90s. We were normal kids back then. Awkward tweens. We had, we read like silly, you know, like people, like what was it, Teen People Magazine and like Seventeen Magazine. Like kids today also, like there's a whole other topic of how they don't, they skip from being like six years old to 26. But I think all women feel awkward when they're 14, even though they're not like, or most aren't. They're pretty girls though. You see what, like they're pretty girls in middle school. Every goddamn time I've interviewed every model and whatever in the world. And they're always like, Oh, I was so awkward when I was 15 and none of the boys like, and I got, that was all in your head, baby. No, it wasn't in my head. If you ask, no, maybe it was in Oomah Thermos head. No, it wasn't in my head. I had a family friend say to me a few years ago, like, you know, we definitely didn't think you'd turn out this well. Like I had braces for four years. I had a palate expander, but I always had a lot of friends. I had boyfriends. Like I wasn't like, Well, you had boyfriends and something was working. It was the personality. It wasn't the, I appreciate the boys that liked me back then with the braces. We didn't care about personality. But also the look back then, it was different. It was like heroin chic, right? Early 2000s. It was a very different look. And I, I'm not thankful to the Kardashians for most things, but I am thankful that they made big lips, big brows, curves, like that they actually made that a thing. Cause it was not, I like hated my lips growing up in my eyebrows. And now I get, you know, people pay to have, have that. So it was a very different time. But yeah, no, working in comedy, people don't realize the performance element of it either. Like it's physically exhausting. You're, I'm driving to places all the time, the way you just described. You're waiting around. It's late at night. You know, well, I mean, you have to want to do it. I, I ended up, I went with a producer, a director from the man show. Her name was Beth Einhorn. And her and I were just friends. I like how he added that. We were just friends. We're just friends. Well, she was an attractive woman and, you know, I took her to Vegas all night. So the, you know, people might think something was up, but Beth Einhorn and I were just friends, but she was a director and she was like a ballsy kind of funny tough woman still is. And I picked her up at her house in Sherman Oaks at like noon. And I like said, we did the Vegas Odyssey and then I dropped her off at her house at five in the morning. And when she got out of the car, she goes, Adam, she goes, you went to Vegas, you did stern, you talked the whole time. Then you did love line, you talked the whole time. And in the car ride there and back, you talked the whole time. So you never stopped talking for the last 17 hours. Could have been your phone. So I realized, yeah, I like talking. So it's good. Like I don't get it. Like when comedians or people like comedy, when you go, Hey, don't you think that? And they go, I don't know who cares. Shut up. Like, I'm always like, well, you got to want to communicate if you're a comedian. I think what I like the most is I love making people laugh. That's what I'm I realized that's what I'm always going for. When, before I did stand up, even before I posted on social media, starting about like two, two and a half years ago, I could be at a dinner with friends, like be on a date, I could be wherever. And I'm always just trying to get the laugh out of someone. And it really is privileged to make people laugh. It feels like a gift. And like, I know people have not everyone has an easy life. I think most people like life is full of friction. And it's great to be able to make people feel seen. Like what we do also is different, because it's not just making people laugh. There are a lot of people in this country who feel like there's someone who isn't representing their point of view. So it's nice to do that. While also making them laugh. What's your background? Or sorry, are you Jewish? Are you Catholic? What are you? Wexler. Yeah, but the first name throws you off, right? It's my black girl spelling Wexler. See, the thing about it's not Wexler, it's not the Epstein files, but it's Jewish. It's very Jewish. Yeah, except for you have to understand, there are the, you know, Bergs and the Steins. And there's like, there's the upper echelon of Jewish names. But then, listen, there's Shapiro is a Jewish name, but it also sounds like a Japanese beer. It doesn't sound Jewish. Jewish normally is like, lip-schultz and Bergs and Steins and stuff. So like Wexler, like Wexler, I know is Jewish, but I don't think of it as, and maybe it's an East coast thing because there's not a lot of Wexlers around here. No, there aren't. But yes, I'm Ashkenazi Jew. People think I'm Sephardi sometimes, but I'm 100% Jewish. So Jewish female conservative, not that common. No, it's not common. And stand up, not very common. I don't think it's common in most places. I mean, there are a lot, everyone who's an Orthodox Jew, not everyone, but I should say, more religious Jews are right-wing. But even among that, you still have a lot of women who are liberal-eaning because that's just the woman's nature of being emotional. Yeah, no, that's true. I also have a theory that, because it does come up, like why Jews, they don't preach what they practice, as my friend Dennis Prager would say. They're conservative, they're family-oriented, they're education-oriented, and then they go vote lefty bullshit that fucks all that up. And it's like, why aren't they talking about what they're actually, why aren't they voting their life? They're living a conservative life and they vote very left-leaning. And I have a theory. I don't know. I don't know. What's your theory? I got a couple theories involving the Jews. No, actually three. All right. First is, the Jews have had problems historically with standing out and then getting into trouble and getting killed. I think around here, they just want to blend in and be down with whatever the popular cause is. Especially if you're going to work in LA and you're going to work in the industry, you're going to be out if you start wearing around a mega hat. Right? And but there is a element with Jews where they sort of keep their head down a little bit. Like the number one, keep your head down group or Asian. Just go, listen, they don't get up there and start screaming about representation. We don't need a Japanese chick running the fire department. You don't need anyone who looks like you in the city council. You just shut up, keep your head down and kick everyone's ass, scholastically, and you'll make more money in any of these people. And they do that. Asians even, and at least they used to and they still do, like I'd go to school with Asians guy and the guy was like named Sam Yamahurto or something. And I'd go Sam and your sister's name is Becky. And they're just giving them super easy Anglo names to try to get them to fit in and not make it hard to pronounce their real names and all that kind of stuff. So they're, I think the Jews want to get along and they've been persecuted and rounded up enough times to go, I just want to know which way the wind is blowing and let's, let's, let's ride with these people this way, especially in LA because you won't be able to work. I don't think that's dissimilar from what I was going to say, which is that religious Jews overwhelmingly vote right wing and secular Jews overwhelmingly vote left wing. And there are more, you know, reform, which is basically Palestinian at this point, but you have like secular Jews and there are way more of those than religious Jews and a lot of people intermarrying. And so I think to your point, those are the Jews that think, Oh, let me support, you know, the pro Palestine, like pro Hamas movement, let me be a self hating Jew, let me be an anti Zionist, not realizing, and a lot of these people actually realized like in, it was like pride marches and dyke marches where they wouldn't allow Jews to march with them. And these progressives were standing there in shock saying, what do you mean? I supported BLM and I'm, you know, all these pro, all these progressive causes, like I'm part of that, and they didn't understand why they were being kicked out of those movements. And so those are the same Jews that also think that, Oh, I'll just assimilate, I'll just not assimilate in the sense and like, there's a lot of online chatter with like the, the neo Nazis and the haters who will say something like, Oh, you don't want to assimilate. I don't mean like, assimilate, like be a part of America, the American fabric. I mean, like pretending to not be Jewish and trying to shirk that identity. And I know a lot of Jews who are still who wound up becoming more right wing because they had that wake up call, especially after October 7th. Yeah, plenty of them, the ones I wouldn't know are the ones that, that stay in that movement. So I agree with you. That's why, but it's not Jews. It's, it's what I call Jaino's right Jews and name only because religious Jews are right wing. Oh no, I that I, that I get, but the synagogue like 95% voted for Trump religious, religious Jews have given up on the get along in Hollywood and sort of getting invited to the cocktail parties. So that's, I think about the Jews that write these shows though, like the, nobody wants this. It's the show about like the hot rabbi with Adam Brody and Kristen Bell. Disgusting show where you could see it's written by a Jew that doesn't know anything about Judaism. I feel the same way when they do a script about carpentry. I'm going, that guy's holding a finish hammer and he's framing with it. What the hell? I can't imagine the fury that you feel the anger over that much worse than whatever you're feeling. And soon people are going to start hating on carpenters on Twitter the way they do hate on Jews. Yeah. Well, so I have a second Jewish theory, which is why do the blacks hate the Jews? And because we hold a mirror up to what they should accomplish. Oh, you're so correct. There's nothing I get to say it because I have a black girl spelling for my name. That's right. So I can say whatever I want. There's, there's nothing that gets a reaction more than shame. And the black community is always talking about racism, but they're talking about slavery and they always do this thing where it's like slavery was only, you know, 170 years ago. And it's like, it was only Jim Crow was only, you know, they're trying to build this bridge to this atrocity of the past to explain their failure in the present. And the Jews are thriving in the present and they have a shorter bridge to the Holocaust and many other atrocities. And that is a narrative that fucks up your black narrative. So you don't want, it's basically this. The black guy goes, you know, the mom, the coach says, you know, why can't you play this season? And black guy goes because my back is sore and then the Jew comes in and he goes, this guy played the whole season with a broken arm and it fucks up the narrative. Not that you guys would excel at sports, but you know what I'm saying. Totally. We own sports. We don't play sports. He's right. So blacks then resent Jews for fucking with their narrative because anyone who's got fucking brain cells to rub together when these guys are just talking about systemic this or the horrors of the past is going to, well, the Jews are kicking ass and they've been historically suppressed. Yeah. And don't forget that our first gay president, Barack Obama, he would always post around like black history month and show like photos from Selma and he would actively cut out the rabbi. Oh, really? With Martin Luther King. Like they, they forget Jews were killed. For standing with the black community. Jews think if they can just ingratiate themselves into groups, everyone's going to like them and it doesn't work that way. Never works. No. We had, we have a, we're talking about a mundami clip where he was talking about gay Muslims. Let's talk about the run. Mom, Donnie, it was talking about the people of color. It's always this great thing where it's 2026 and they go, this impacts the black and brown people of color, this community. And as anyone want to know why rent. So if rent is $1,500 and it's $1,500 for me and it's $1,500 for you and it's $1,500 for everybody, but you're black or Hispanic. So it impacts you more. Should we be talking about the price of rent or should we ask why it impacts you more? Because it doesn't impact Asian and Jews and white guys. They just pay rent, but it does impact the black and Hispanic groups. So their thing is like, what's going on with rent? And my question is, is the rents steady? That's a constant. The part where you're being impacted, that's different. That's something else. So we should look why. All right. And I famously asked Gavin Newsom on this show, why, why black and Hispanic? What's going on? He wouldn't answer, of course. It's my favorite clip of all time. But let's listen to Zoran talk about this. Now he's got a plan. He's going to get money from white people and he's going to give it to black and brown people so they're not impacted anymore. And while today's true cost of living measure confirms that the affordability crisis touches every corner of our city, we know that these effects are not applied evenly. So often it is black and brown New Yorkers who are hit the hardest. This preliminary racial equity plan is the first step. The first. Developing a whole of government approach to tackling that reality. It is a plan that lays out these first steps to solve decades of neglect and discrimination. And it places the work of 45 city agencies within a singular framework. All right. So it's impacting. By the way, I'm in California. Six dollar gallon gas impacts Mexicans more than impacts Jews or facts, Jews or Asians because they drive trucks and they make a lot less money and then drive electric cars because they got to work. So that's true. And there's something we could do about it, but they're not interested in that part of the impactfulness. Yeah, this is just the first step that the next step is just going to be collecting the property of anyone who makes a living and just giving it to black and brown people. Well, there's so I mean, there's obviously so much wrong with what what mom Donnie said. But also the people he's mentioning like BIPOC, the black Asian Pacific, indigenous midget, like whatever he wants to talk about, these people are heavily subsidized by white and Jewish New Yorkers. Like they he's talking about the people that take the most from the welfare state and he doesn't use numbers. He doesn't use facts. Now a lot of these people, it's like the majority of subsidized housing in New York City is obviously black and Hispanic and a lot of it is illegal as well. So what is he even this is just your point. It's like just for government to take more control. I've said this a million times and everyone thinks I'm a douche. But sometimes people go to me in the past that go, what's your charity? What are you doing? What charities do you give to? I don't really give to any charities. And they go, you don't. I give to charities. I go, oh, okay. Well, my charities, I pay a million dollars a year in taxes and then everyone gets to be on my role. They get to use my stuff and they go, huh, what's that mean? I give to the March of Dunge. I go, listen, you're a fucking school teacher. What do you pay a year? Eight grand? Okay, you pay eight grand. I pay a million. So how much road do we get paved with your fucking eight grand and how many new schools get built and how many after school programs you pay for? So your deal is, is you give eight grand and that money just gets whacked up and spread out. It could be the military, it could be FEMA, everything. And you pay eight grand. We whack up your measly eight grand versus my million. But you give 60 bucks every three months to the March of Dimes and now you're fucking better than I am. Shut up. I'm trying to calculate how much of that is Cap Gaines. I'm trying to figure out how much you make every year. You choose. You choose. I'm just doing the math here really fast. You work, you choose. I was like, oh, they could have sent a nicer car for me. I'm kidding. You work, you choose. But you know, you should be thankful that you're not a billionaire because now they're trying to do the billionaire's tax. They're losing everybody. I'll play you, me and Gavin, just a minute of it, just so we can have fun. He tried to do the black and brown checking account people in here. He's so annoying. Oh, God, this is him in his best though. Look down the road six months. Yes, your husband lost his job. That's why you need to sock away some money when he's gainfully employed. Yes, they foreclosed on your home. That's why you need to have a network, a community, friends, family members, money put away. But think about it. Half of African Americans in the state of California, roughly half Latino families, have no access to a checking account or an ATM, things we take for granted. They don't have a check. What's wrong with them? Well, because they don't have the resources to sock those things away. Why do we have them? A lot of different reasons, but roughly half those families don't. Why do Armenians have them? But where they end up is the check cashing places and these payday lines. Why those two groups don't have access? A lot of it just happens to be that. We can talk about this. No, they're hardly flawed, but they're strong enough. Do Asians have this problem? I mean, a lot of communities have problems. A lot of whites have these problems. Oh, so that's not just black and Hispanic? No, but why do you bring up black and Hispanic? Because the magnitude is ominous. Why blacks and Hispanics? Across the board, all social economic... Okay, so everybody is struggling. So Asians are suffering just as much as blacks? The face of welfare is not an African American family. It's Asian, Jewish, it's all of them. Caucasian, it's a lot of folks in society. A lot of folks are struggling. Okay. Amazing. He's a fucking idiot, in space. He brings up a problem. No, he's not an idiot. You're wrong. Well, hold on. He's a liar. Well, he's a liar. He brings up a problem. And then when I ask him to try to solve it, he says it happens to be that way, which is not really... It's like saying, I'm a politician. What's going on? There's a big crack in the dam. What are you going to do to fix it? It just happens to be a crack. And well, what do we need you for, by the way, if you're just going to bring up shit that's wrong and then have no solutions for it? But yes, he's a sociopathic idiot because he doesn't understand what he sounds like. I don't know if I agree with you that he doesn't know what he sounds like. I think he's like a sociopathic liar. Well, yeah, he is a sociopathic liar. And he seems pretty suave to me. Like, I think a big mistake we can make on the right is just, you know, pretending that these people can't win. And Democrats are very good at getting people to vote and getting votes in. However, you think that happens, you know. I guess when I say idiot, I certainly... I don't mean dumb. What I mean is, is he doesn't have the ability to hear himself when he speaks. And so he says a lot of stuff that gets thrown back in his face because he doesn't monitor himself correctly or clearly when he's speaking. Well, I think he's an idiot in that he thinks that this is the way to live his life and the things that he's making his causes. Like, that makes you an idiot. It makes you a bad person. Because he's pretending to be a good person. And what he's actually doing is making everybody worse off. And that's a problem. He's pretending to be a good person and hurting a lot of people and killing people too as well. So it's sort of like your policies are killing people in the streets, but yet they break out in applause when you go in front of the dais and talk to like-minded idiots. Yes. But think about it. That's a lot of the left. It's just a bunch of clapping seals that will see him gone stage and say, we care about, you know, diversity and equity and equity. Like, that's what we care about. And people have such short memories, like everyone has TikTok brain and Goldfish memory. And no one's going to remember the Palisades fire. And also it was very specific to California. Like, I see Gavin Newsom as a serious threat. Well, certainly in that there's nobody else on the bench, really. I mean, Kamala Harris, who actually is a dope. So she's basically the unskilled version of Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom is a sociopath and he's a liar, but he's skilled at it. She's a sociopath and a liar and she's unskilled at it. So he, the skilled, I always say they're both magicians. They're not warlocks. They don't have any powers. It's just sleight of hand, but she's clumsy with her sleight of hand. He's doing the same sleight of hand, which is none of this is ever going to happen. Whatever it is you're promising and all the nonsense about people living with dignity and a seat at the table. It's all just gibberish, bullshit, and nothing ever comes out the other end, but he's much better at selling his gibberish, bullshit. And she's unskilled at it. Yes. Well, it was six years ago. He was at the French Laundry during COVID when people's grandparents were dying by themselves in the hospital, right? Yeah. And he's still got, you know, he's nobody cares. He shouldn't be nobody cares. He shouldn't be in politics. The thing about Californians is they all bought into COVID and listened to him and they were duped. And so basically, here's what Californians are. All right. I just thought of this. They're like somebody who got ripped off in some sort of time share thing, right? Let's just say you and I were a couple and you said, he would be so lucky. Yeah. Be a good day. But you said, I said, I'm going to go down and get involved with this time share, you know, and then you would go, don't do it. And then I would go, I know what I'm doing, Ms. Wharton School, because I got a little something called Street Smarts. And you can show me all the degrees you want with your business and your finance. I know what I'm doing. I got a good feeling about this and I'm never wrong. And I got myself into this time share. And the time share ended up being a rip off and there's big HOAs and I never use the thing. And then you'd come up to me and go, how's that time share going for you? And I'd go, just fine. I like my time share. Thank you very much because now it's an ego involved. And so all the people that got duped by COVID and all the people that got lied to by this hack and all these people who told their neighbors to pull their mask up or tattled on them for walking down the horse trail or alone on the beach, you idiots got duped. You were wrong and you have to go find a mirror and figure out what else you're wrong about. But you don't want to do that because you're weak and you don't have character and you're a coward. And so everyone goes, why isn't anyone apologizing for all the COVID bullshit? Because they're the people who bought the time share and they don't want to say, you're right. I was wrong. You told me so. I wouldn't listen. And next time something comes along, maybe I'll shut up and I'll let you make the financial decisions. They don't want to admit it. So they have to keep voting for the guy who was wrong about COVID who fucked their lives up because to do something else would be to admit they were wrong and nobody wants to do that on the left. I think that's right. But I also think that's why I think we're in a lot of trouble in the next few years because think about it. Like Trump won in 2024 with the widest tent we've ever seen. We had Elon, we had the tech bros, and we had Maha. We had all these mommies. I went to these events for Maha before the election and after. And these are liberal women. These are the classic suburban mom. Because what the left is really good at is convincing especially women that if you have empathy, if you're a good person and a nice person, you don't get to vote for the right. You don't get to vote for a Republican candidate. Yeah. Things were so bad in 2024. I was ready to get sent to the reeducation gulags where you like, I was like, this is if things don't go our way, we're in a lot of trouble. We're going like, civilization goes to the dark ages if Kamala wins. And we're all going to have to use pronouns and we're all going to be forced to watch bad SNL skits and we're going to have to pretend to laugh and it's going to be horrible. And these mothers had their kids coming home from school saying, there's a kid in my class that identifies as a furry and a shitting in a litter box in the bathroom. And it finally gave these especially women permission in the privacy of a voting booth where you should just vote for whoever you think is right. But the left is so good at getting into your head even there, even when no one is around and no one is watching. And so that's why people voted for the right. And things are much better under Trump, but things are still rocky. We're sitting here right now. We don't, we'll see what happens with Iran this week. We'll see where the economy is in a couple of years. But things are going to be, we've, even if they're worse than they are today, wherever they are, they're going to be better than they were in 2024 when we were voting. And I don't think the average person thinks, huh, things are better. Why don't I vote for the side that made things better than they were before? I think it takes away the pressure and the social permission of voting for the right. And so more people will sit at home or they'll think, ah, you know, like things are okay. Like in New York City, I think a lot of, there are many reasons why we're on mom Donnie one, including foreign funding, billionaire funding. There's so many reasons why and the fact that, you know, but a lot of it is that people sat at home because things were better under Adams after Trump. Things were really bad under Adams at the beginning, Eric Adams. And then after Trump was inaugurated, he and Adams had a meeting and Eric Adams basically started leading like a Trump-esque policy in New York City. Things were much better. The streets got cleaner. Things felt safer. And then Zoran Mom Donnie gets elected. So I, I see New York City as a warning for what can happen with the presidency. Well, I think that was pretty spot on.

There's also kind of a blackmail component to this which doesn't bode well for the Republicans, which is the left literally has tantrums when the right wins and they make everything a battle and everything's insanity. And there's all, it's basically like they go, you want any more this ice chaos out there? Do you want, you see what's going on in the streets? You see what happens when you send ice out? It's like, well, if you just stay the fuck home and let them do their fucking job, then no, there wouldn't be chaos. The chaos is your fat wide ass getting out there and wrestling with them and not thus we have chaos. And so I don't say it's in a charter, it's written down in anywhere, but it is understood and anyone who's been married understands this where you just go, fuck it, man. I'm tired of arguing. I'm just fucking to let it, but she's wrong. She's wrong. He's wrong. Rarely a kiss, but someone's wrong and then the other person goes, I don't care, I'm eating shit. I don't want to deal with this anymore. I can fucking deal with it. Anybody who's had two kids, I have twins, girl boy. My girl was a royal pain in the ass growing up and she's great now. Sounds great. She's fucking fantastic, but she's fucking going for it, man. I talked to her every time I talked to her. I'm like, where are you? I want skydiving. Okay, where are you today? Disneyland. Where are you today? I'm at the country club. Okay. Where are you, dad? I'm going to work. I'm working so you can go skydiving and go to the country club, but she goes for it. My son was super easy, super laid back. Still is. That's their personality. Yeah. And she'd start having a fit about something and my son would be like, well, she rode in the front on the way out to the beach and now she wants to ride in the front seat on, that's not fair. We have to trade on. And I'd go, I know, I don't want to hear it anymore. Just fucking get in the back. Yes. But I have to go in the back on the way there and on the way back from the beat. I get it. It's not fair. I just don't want to deal with this shit anymore. And I think the left is very good at this. They're such fucking belly aching, pussy winers that they never fucking shut up. And half their pitch is like, don't you want to just go back to normal? Here's what normal is. Wide open border and you tax a fuck out of everyone, but no one is complaining. Yeah. So we'd like you to shut up. So if we give you Gavin Newsom, he's going to ruin the country, but you guys will shut up for four years so we can fucking make a drive back from the beach and not go insane. A lot of people take that. Yeah. I've also just never subscribed to the idea of, you know, when people said, especially after 2020, it's like, oh, we're the silent majority versus the loud minority. I don't know why being in the majority makes you right. And I actually think most of history shows that a lot of times the people who are good and right are not necessarily the majority. I think the majority is for masses who think in the same way. And I think that's something the right, I mean, the right struggles with a lot of things. We also, like we got the culture back for two and a half seconds and now we're like not really cool again. Like we were really cool with like our black, like the dark MAGA hats and everything. And now we're getting like pretty uptight and like unfunny and cringe again, which is disappointing to see in part of why I try to do comedy to make it lighthearted again. But I don't know the left, like they have the culture, like liberals are good at that. They're good at being cooler. Well, they don't, I mean, they got like a 75 year head start. You know what I mean? Like people are like, where are all the funny Republican comedians? And it's like, well, they didn't start doing it for a long time. You know, it was, I mean, you know, John Stewart's been at it for a long time. They, they sort of, it's sort of like soccer, like our country sucked at soccer for a long time, just because everyone played soccer around the world and we played baseball. Do you think that's it though? I think we have different personalities. Like I think the world, it's like, we should have male and female and like we should, I'll say it, we should have liberal and conservative. I just wish we had like less of liberal. But I think that there is a healthy balance. Like I want my interior designer of a house to be a liberal. I don't want a Republican decorating my house. Like it won't look as nice. You know, like there's the joke that we've been saying for a few years, like you want your brist that have like purple hair and you know, it's going to be a great coffee. So I think that there are things like the left is good at the arts. They're also really good at like, they build institutions that we don't, like you just have to call a spade a spade. I'm not saying it's good, but how is it that they took over universities because Republicans gave up on universities. We just walked away. Well, I, okay, first, a few things agreed. I mean, you know, comedy is more cerebral and it's a little, it's, it's not physical. And the guys I know that are sort of on the right or more of the Pete Higgs, you know, let's do push-ups. Let's get in the octagon. Let's drive a Jeep over a hill. You know, they're tactile, physical. They don't sit around and think about stuff. They go, do shit, you know, and they're literally outdoors men. It's like they're men and they're outdoor and they hunt, they fish and they camp and that whole thing, like that's their world, but that's not sitting around in your Brooklyn apartment, riding jokes, you know, so there's like a little bit of that, but it's also, they were never, the, the, I worked in the trades, trades guys are all right wing. They don't really know it, but they're practical people and practical people end up being right wing because they have to deal with dangerous things with blades on them spinning around and they, they kind of have feelings about putting a barn up. They have to go fucking put the barn up, you know what I mean? So they live in a very tactile sort of real gravity, laden world. And also they have to assess risk all the time, which the left doesn't do the left's like COVID's come around. Well, everyone go home and stay in your house. Well, what about work? Well, don't work. Yes. Well, but how do you feed your family? We'll give you food and you stay home. Well, what about people? But don't you want to go to Trader Joe's? Well, yeah, yeah, someone should go work at Trader Joe's and then I'll go back in my house. Like that this wild, unrealistic, insane version, everything for them is about safety. And it's like, hey, if you want to build a bridge, some point, someone's going to have to get up and do shit that ain't safe. But I do think that it just never was the realm of the, of the conservative to do comedy. And then Hollywood got ever, Hollywood made it so that if you were conservative, you've got shunned. So people kind of learn that part. So there's kind of a, there's a learning curve mixed with a, I agree, like an attitudinal thing where it's just not really, I don't know a lot of conservative people that have wildly wicked senses of humor. And they're also less, probably less verbal. So the people that I grew up with are the more sort of go out hunting and fishing kind of guys, they don't talk about stuff that much. They just kind of do it. Yeah. Well, to your point, I have two things to say. The first is, it's like, you want the conservative to build your house and you want the liberal to decorate it. Yeah. Those are the two brands. I agree. And then you have a full, and then you have a completed house. Yes. So you need conservatives or people on the right who are practical, who understand danger and risk and getting the job done. And then you need the whimsical dreamer who can decorate a space in a way that you wouldn't know how to do. Well, sorry, you don't need them. No, I know. It's nice to have them. You need the house. You need the fucking house. You need the house. You don't need the end table. But at the end of the day, I think the world works in balance. I agree with you. And so, like, I don't want a world full of me's because I'm a pretty abrasive, blunt, you know, person. You need the people to build the theater on the right and they need the people on the left to create the film that plays in the theater. Yes, exactly. And I'm saying liberals are different than leftists. The problem is the left is becoming overwhelmed by leftists, not liberals. And that's why so many liberals have started to come to the right, especially in 2024. I have a lot of friends who are just really in the middle, especially from New York, because they're business people, but from New York, and they'll kind of go either way. And they voted for Trump because of that reason. But what I will say about comedy is I also, yeah, like, it's a bit theatrical, isn't it? Like with comedy. But the reason why comedy has been struggling the last few years, and all these late shows are irrelevant, and the ratings are like through the floor, is because comedy is just the truth with good timing. And so, if you're not saying the truth, it's not funny. But you get these, a lot of the audiences now, especially Gen Z, they expect you to just be saying like their truths that they could like snap to, not laugh to. I actually saw Bill Burr last night at an event, and he performed and he was so funny. And I was shocked by how I'd say 95% of what he said, except for a dig at Trump. And it wasn't even that bad of it. It wasn't a big dig. But his comedy was something that you and I would say. He said like these ugly women feminists, you know, and he had a joke about how black people love God, but God doesn't seem to love them back as much. And like, he said things that like the audience, it was a Gen Z, pretty Gen Z audience, Gen Z heavy. And they weren't laughing at that. Because they just feel like they're supposed to be offended. But he was just being a comic. Yeah. I don't know. I can't, I like Bill Burr and I think he's super funny. And then I think he took like kind of a weird left turn for a while. And then I hadn't heard that much from him other than he got a little woke and left or something. And now is he tacking back or? I was wondering the same thing last night. I didn't get to look into recent clips between last night and now, but I was really pleasantly surprised. And I thought he does what you and I try to do, or what you do, what I'm trying to do, which is to even have someone who has a totally different political opinion, like I'm sitting there thinking, this is Bill Burr, he went woke and I'm laughing my ass off the whole time. Right. And that like it's just, it's undeniably funny and it's true enough that I can laugh at it. Even if I don't fully agree with it, I can laugh. So now we're in a weird stage and I'll play you play another clip because there's see there's things I can't figure out about the new sums of the world and his wife is great, man. She's the gift that keeps giving. Man, she is a treasure chest of horrible short form clips on the internet that everyone's digging up. But I have asked this question, but you're, you want to Wharton and you studied business. How many times you said it? Thank you so much. Business and finance. We'd like to thank our sponsors for today's show, the Wharton School of Finance. Thank you. I've said a million times, I used to say Dr. Drill time, but I've said a million times. I don't get why there's so much controversy about economics. It should be a settled science by now. There's a lot of like, well, some guys say this and then some guys are supply side guys and then some guys say we can just print our way out of a recession. And I'm like, I'm like, can we just figure out what works and doesn't work? Like, isn't it pretty apparent that the communism does not work at all economically? Like it always turns into a shit show. Like, can we just agree on certain things? Like people need incentive to leave the house and it's real easy stuff. Like it's straightforward. It's kind of diet. It's like, it's like, I'm a nutritionist going, well, diet and exercise. You want to live and someone's going, well, not so fast, Johnny. And I'm like, can we just agree on diet and exercise to help you lose weight? And like, no, we cannot. We're going to argue about it. And it's like, why, you know, as a former builder, there was just rules, stuff worked, stuff didn't work. There were certain size beams and headers for certain size openings, you know, and you'd go, I want a 12 foot opening, but I only want to use a four by four. So I'm going to get not going to work. Got to be a four by 12. You want to go that big, you know, that kind of like, there was just rules and you've all done and you got your house built and we ever understood it. I don't get what the economics and maybe it's an Obama. It's a leftist thing. Cause someone said to Obama once, they said, like, why don't you lower the corporate tax and then you end up getting more business and then you end up getting more tax revenue. And he goes, I get it, but I don't like, I don't like the optics of it. It's kind of like, oh, okay. So you're going to do a thing that punishes the corporations and you take in less money. Yes. Cause I'm an asshole. That's what I'm going to do. So I kind of get that part, but like when you hear Liz Warren talking about taking Elon's money and giving it to these people, like, is, can any economist just go, that shit never works? No, I'll tell you the problem. Well, first, you know, in econ one on one, the first thing they say, you learn a few phrases and one is an assumption, which is assume the consumer is rational. That's the line they always use in every chart in an econ one on one class. And that drove me nuts. Cause I would sit there in the 11th grade and I was like, would you mean assume the consumer is rational? They're not rational. There are people are deeply irrational. And that's why you get the whole field of behavioral economics, which then people in like other fields disagree with. I think there's like, they're pros and cons to behavioral econ and there are great books about it. And, um, but that's, that assumes that people are irrational and it looks into why people act the way they do. Well, I mean, for me, Thomas soul, an all paraphrase, but you know, he basically said, look, um, the best you can do with your money is you spending your money on yourself. And then the second best you can do is you spend your money on a gift for somebody, you know, and the worst you can do is spending someone else's money on somebody you don't know. And that's where you end up with the leering center. You know what I mean? That's where you end up with this crazy government shits, not their money. Nobody cares. No accountability all out the window. And so in the middle of this era where we're uncovering daily insane waste, fraud and abuse, we also have daily Liz Warrens and Bernie Sanders saying we need more money, which is optically an insane thing to ask for while we're discovering all this waste, fraud and abuse. And it's essentially what, what she's doing. It's like, if you were married and you got a bill, you got a utility bill, gas and water and electric and it was like $41,000 for the month, right? And then you said your wife like, Hey man, this is insane. You got to shut the windows, turn the thermostat, open all the windows and turn the thermostat all the way up. The pool's 90 degrees. It's a middle of winter. No one even goes in the pool. The flood, you're flooding the front yard. You got like a rice paddy out there. What would you do? We got to dial it back and she just went, why don't you fucking make some more money and we wouldn't have to deal with this. And I'm like, yeah, or we could shut a window and turn the pool here off in the middle of December. And so their argument is literally give us more money in the middle of wasting the most money. And I'll play a Liz's clip, which is, which is great. Cause she's a, she's going to explain to us like we're nine, what she could do with Elon's money. So I've been trying to make this video to show you what wealth inequality looks like in America. I wanted to compare how much wealth the average American has compared to Elon Musk. And I wanted to do it with M&Ms, but it turns out to make that happen. I need to get six and a half million M&Ms. That's right. Elon Musk has six and a half million times more wealth than the typical American. If you were to visualize it, this is you and this is all right. So the average American only has 124,000 M&Ms. She doesn't specify whether it's plain or peanut, but I'm surprised the average American has $124,000. The left ones are full of nuts. So there's a peanut M&Ms. And Elon has all the M&Ms. And by the way, that's why you don't have as many M&Ms Dawson because he took all the M&Ms. You understand? You can't go out and get your own M&Ms. You have to go ask Elon for some M&Ms. No, she's not talking about Soros's M&Ms. No. So she then decides to pick kernels of rice. Okay, so keep going. So then I thought, okay, if M&Ms are too much, what if we did it with rice? Turns out we need a 350 pound bag of rice. That is dangerous. And frankly, it would be a safety hazard to carry something like that. You can't carry that kind of rice, but... Wealth inequality in this country is so out of control. It's hard to even visualize. And that's one of the many reasons why I introduced my wealth tax in Congress. It's a two cent tax on every dollar someone has after, after they hit the $50 million mark. And then a three cent tax on every dollar someone has after they hit the billion dollar mark. You know what we can do? Hold on a second. You must appreciate this as a Wharton School graduate. The government is the only place that goes the wrong direction percentage wise, meaning I deal in half dealt quite a bit in high end car auctions. High end car auctions, they get paid to auction your car off. They get a percentage. If the sales under like $100,000, they'll get 12%. But if it's over 100,000, they drop down to like 10%. And if it goes over a million, you can negotiate with them. So it goes the other direction as well as it should. Because that's where that's the world everyone else lives in. And casinos work that way, which is, hey, you want to come and gamble $100,000, we'll comp your room. They don't go gamble $100,000, we'll charge you twice for the room. The LA mansion tax, it's like 4% for houses up to $5 million. But if you get to $10 million, it's 5%. How does that work? And the government can do it because they have guns, but they're the only one who thinks that way. Everyone else should get a break as you go up. They're acting as if it's theft. As if he has this money somehow because you took it from other people. Yeah. And the idea of like, well, what's your cap then? It's like when Billie Eilish made that dumb comment at that award ceremony a few months ago, where she was talking about billionaires. But you're a millionaire. And I bet you want to make, I don't know how much she's worth, but she's probably worth at least $100 million at this point. And you want to be worth hundreds of millions of more dollars. But you're upset about billionaires? No, you're not. It's just because those are the people above you now. By the way, it was always millionaires. It was millionaires and Bernie Sanders and Liz Warren, they talked about millionaires their entire career. Somebody could put a clip together that would last three days long of them complaining about millionaires. And then someone tapped them on the shoulder and explained, excuse me, Bernie, you're a millionaire. And Liz, you're a millionaire. And they went, okay, got it. Billionaires. They went from million to billion because they're millionaires. But she's got a plan for Elon's money, which I want to hear. And that's one of the many reasons why I introduced my wealth tax in Congress. It's a two cent tax on every dollar someone has after, after they hit the $50 million mark. And then a three cent tax on every dollar someone has after they hit the billion dollar mark. You know what we could do with that money? We could make universal childcare a reality. Build millions of new homes and lower housing costs, lower the Medicaid eligibility age. You can do shit, bitch. You're giving it to Somalis. Elon Musk could do all the shit you're saying you're going to do. He could do it. You would squander it. Here's what we could do. I love when they when they do it. We have a dirt bridge that's not complete yet for $120 million, just so Pumas and butterflies can get over the one on one. We got a train that's billions of dollars over budget. You fucking idiots can't do anything. You're going to open hospice places in downtown LA and coin up laundry mats and give the money to the Armenians. That's what you fucking guys are going to do with this money. You're not going to do anything with the money. Ironically, you could tell Elon to build a bunch of houses and build us a bridge and build us a bullet train and use your money. And he would actually do it. I'm not really formally against people giving you money. I'm against them giving you money, you squandering the money and then complaining you're not getting enough money. They should be on social media, any of them. The left or the right. I think that a lot of this messaging where they massage it, that's where they just brainwash people. Imagine if you were sitting at senator or congressman and you just had to deliver results that people felt instead of just talking into social media. I will play, go back 10 seconds, but listen to all she's going to do with Elon's money. Look what we could have, everybody. Free shit from everybody. Every dollar someone has after, after they hit the $50 million mark and then a three cent tax on every dollar someone has after they hit the billion dollar mark. You know what we could do with that money? We could make universal childcare a reality, build millions of new homes and lower housing costs, lower the Medicare eligibility age to 55, deliver universal paid family lead, establish tuition free community college and still have money left over. This is just one way we can start to unrig the economy and lower cost of family. All right. So, Elon, with just a fair share, your kid could go to junior college for free. By the way, lots of talk about junior college. My mom, I come from a long line of junior college people. We weren't warden material over here. My mom must have set some kind of record. She went to junior college for like 26 years. She had no fucking money. It's eight bucks a unit or something. It's essentially free. So, I didn't even know what the discussion of like the tuition like if you can't afford $80 to go to college and fuck off or go figure it out. But she's just going to take your money and then she's going to get all this shit going and it's all going to be free shit and it's always going to work out except for it never does. Yeah. Well, also nothing's free. Right. I hate when they say free. Right. That's when you know you're listening to a fraud and a liar when they say the word free over and over again. But also you look at, all you have to do is look at the charts of money spent per kid and you can obviously adjust for what it would cost today. But when you were in school, which wasn't that long ago, you're so youthful. Big man on campus like it was yesterday. But like when you were in public school, I assume you went to public school, right? I was a warehouse baby. But like I assume, but like when kids went to public school for decades, like when my parents were going to school, the dollar per kid was a fraction of what it is today. The problem is not the money. No, I know. It's just not the problem. I argue that and have always argued that where they go, these are underfunded. I'm like, if the fucking parents got their shit together and did the homework with the kid, Abe Lincoln, I don't know, did he have a laptop? I don't know. He studied by candlelight. Like you can anyone do it really. The thing it does, it's kind of interesting. I'm sorry, back to diet and exercise, but people go like, oh, if I have some rich person like Jennifer Aniston, I could afford a personal train. You can afford to eat healthy and exercise. Guys get jacked in prison for Christ's sake. You can do chin ups on any tree branch. You can go hike on any trail. You can run on any street. And you cannot have a ho ho or ding dong, just like Jennifer Aniston. You don't need somebody standing next to you to do this stuff. And historically, people have gotten wonderful educations with just one teacher and not this whole unions and bureaucracy and all this bullshit you guys are trying to inject and brainwash everybody. Super easy. And also, when you go to Baltimore, you figure out they spend more there than they do in school systems that do a fuck of a lot better than Baltimore. So where is this connection between finances and results? Right. But it also just bothers me that you could apply what she's saying about money to many things, but she's acting as if it's a zero sum game. Like Elon making that money means you're not allowed to make money. And that's just not how it works. And so it's the same thing as saying like, yeah, someone's fit and you're fat. And so we're going to make the skinny person eat ding dongs to make them fatter because it makes you feel badly about yourself. That's what it is. You feel badly about yourself. So we're going to pull down those people that are doing a while. Yes. And they do this thing that's like access to information bullshit. It's like every nine-year-old knows the difference between an apple and a donut. They just eat the donut, but they all know it. You know it. It gets beaten into you. Like, you know, you start reaching for the cane in your mind. No, no, no. First we have dinner. Then you can have dessert. Like that's the first. Pretty much know that at five. I'd say you don't have discipline and you don't have delayed gratification, which is the number one thing you need to be successful. So you reach for the donut and then you get angry when the doctor tells you you need to lose weight. And then so we yell at the doctor and tell them to stop shaming people and they're telling them they need to lose weight. But we understand what works and there is no direct line between money per student and results. I think there's a, if you wanted to really break it down and put it on a scale, I'd say money is worse results. Probably. Same thing with universities. Look, the admins are super bloated on college campuses now. They've turned into woke madrasas. People are doing like underwater hijab weaving as their majors and no one learns in college anymore. Very rarely. You have to go, like, I think you shouldn't go to an Ivy League and you should go to like a school where you will actually learn a real skill set because they don't, like, I feel like, I felt like I caught the last chopper at a nom when I graduated college in terms of having a proper education where you could see the BS rolling in, but it was still a real time to go to college where you had really tough teachers. I remember also, I was in, obviously I was in college Republicans, I had friends in the college Democrats and it was a time where we would go to each other's meetings and it was a social event. It was fun and we could like agree and disagree and it was just like a nice event. Can you imagine today on an Ivy League campus or on any, really any college campus people doing that, like going to each other's meetings from the left and the right? Not to protest. To actually just sit there. Yeah. Yeah. Conservative Jews showing up at the gals for Hillary Clinton club or something like that. I'm not a lesbian. I wouldn't show up to that. Well, yeah, I hear women are more flexible than men. All right, Aaron, let me give you a plug before I get on with the next part of the show. You can go to her website because she's touring and she's got dates and tell everyone how to spell your name. It is A-R-Y-N-N-E and then Wexler, it's fanatic, W-E-X-L-E-R and no, I did not come up with that name myself. It was given to me. I like that. Thank you. All right. We'll take a break.

Hey, just started the whole care top thing and just actually saw a show in Vegas and he does have a whole part where he talks about how Gallagher was a huge influence on him and even into the show smashing a watermelon. It was a fake watermelon with just a bunch of confetti and red streamers, but yeah, he's definitely a fan. You can leave us a message at 888-634-1744. I heard that care top just bought Gallagher's pants at a celebrity auction, I guess we'll call it, which is interesting. $1,000. $1,000? For Gallagher pants. Would you? I would not. I mean you spend lots of money on cars. I do. I'm all four people having stuff they're into and collecting stuff of whatever it is and for some people, God, I'm trying to... You got to look this one up Dawson, but the Zucker Abrams airplane, police squad and all that. Zucker, I think, no, well airplane and police squad. Oh no, but you said Zucker Abrams, like a very specific airplane police. No, no. Oh, you're talking about the movie airplane. Of Zucker. Okay. I thought you were talking about like some special G.I. show thing. Homeschooling. Homeschooling. Look, the kid... I know the Leslie line, okay? Kid will know the New Testament very well and have no historical cultural references. I know historical references, just not cultural ones. All right. Zucker, I think of Zucker Abrams, Kentucky Fried movie, all those movies. Okay. I think he collects Davy Crockett stuff. Oh, wow. Yes, has lots of writings and things. I've seen that one because it was pure and it was old-fashioned Disney, so I was allowed to watch that. So he has not from the TV show, but little writings of Davy, film-maker David Zucker, known for airplane and a collector of Davy Crockett memorabilia. Okay, so look. He and Glenn Beck could hang out because Glenn Beck has a lot of old Americana, like his stuff. All that stuff. It could be baseballs. I don't care. It could be Barbies, whatever it is. I'm into car stuff, and so I got a bunch of Paul Newman stuff. But now here's the other part. People make fun of these people. Like you pay $2 million for a Pokemon card. I get it, but if the Pokemon card's worth $5 million in 10 years, then... Like Logan Paul got shit because he bought some baseball card, then he bought like a hockey stick, and then he went to play hockey with it, and people were like, how dare you? But people should. A, if you earn the money, you do whatever you want with it. Number one. Number two, are you an idiot for spending a bunch of money for Fonzie's jacket? Like, what do you need Fonzie's jacket for $75,000? Well, if Fonzie's jacket is worth $1.7 million one day, well, then you're not an idiot. I like those kids that got Trump's signature. It's going to be worth $25,000 one day. I'm so weird you brought that up. I just got Trump's signature yesterday. You did? Was it the printed one or was it for real? While we were sitting around and talking about Trump, talking about the auto pen, a text showed up in my phone, which is him autographing a big article that was on me. By the way, for those who think Dawson, those think Adam, Adam thinks about his Adam and Adam's sociopath. He's a narcissist. He's a narcissist. I had a huge article come out on me huge a week ago. Have I said a word about it to anybody here? I've never heard about it. It's a huge flattering article and it's filled with Kevin Costner and Alec Baldwin and Jimmy Kimmel all calling me a genius. I've never said a word about it. Because it's not really, I don't know. Why did they come out? I had no idea. Because I've never said a word about it. You didn't tweet it. You didn't post it on the gram. The guy followed me around for two weeks. You didn't say we should include this in the news. The guy's like, I need to talk to Alec Baldwin. I need to talk to Kevin Costner. I need to talk to Bill Simmons. I need to talk to Jimmy Kimmel and I need to talk to everybody about you. So I can write this big long article about you and God bless them. They all talked and everyone found the time and blah, blah, blah. And it's been out for two weeks. I haven't said a fucking word about it. And that's what the president signed. I didn't say a word about any of it, but somehow Donald Trump got hold of this article. Oh, that's cool. And then he physically took the paper and then he signed it. It's because he reads everything. You are really great. Keep going. Donald. And then he signed it and then he sent it to me. That's nice. Yeah. I mean, the man does read everything. Like it is, you know, he reads and watches everything. Un-evidently, he does. He loves to read. Like I've heard that he likes to read like a tangible paper. I've heard from so many TV hosts and producers like, oh, the president was watching last night. And I'm always like, how do you know? And it's, he's connected to so many people in media. I think he has a love of media. He'll just text them and be like, I saw this segment. I liked this guest. I didn't like that person. It's great. Yeah. So I just wrote, it was an assistant that sent me this, but I, I just wrote, thanks, Flatter, take the time, blah, blah, blah. But I should have wrote, I know the auto pen when I see it. That's what I should have wrote. And maybe I still missed opportunity. It's less than 24 hours. I could probably text it. You could, you should totally text them that or you should text a picture of you like holding it and being like pointing at it, like with a, well, I don't physically have it. He took a picture of it and sent it to me. I don't have the actual paper. So hasn't arrived yet. I don't even know if it's going to arrive. I don't know how, I don't know where he knows where she knows where to send it. Okay. Well, I guess I should ask, right? Yeah, you should ask for that. That'd be cool to frame and hang up amongst all the other cool. A narcissist would not only talk about it, but let's do, I would reverse FedEx. I would send a career to the White House to get that and then get it to me as soon as possible. I think you should frame it. You've so much old like cool paraphernalia from your career on, on all these walls in the studio for the audience that doesn't know. We should do a behind the scenes video of that sometime. And you should add that. You should totally like put it in a cool shadow box frame, like nice mat and hang it up. Yeah, yeah. I, I got, I'm going to have to hit up his assistant and do that. I guess I, maybe they have a place to send it. I never really discussed the nuts and the bolts of it. He signed it and then they took a picture of it. Have your people talk to his people, Adam. That's the way we're going to have to do it. Yeah. All right. There's a clip that I, I love. I guess I'm, I'm, I quietly appreciate things that are furthest from me. Okay. So, and I think maybe we all do, but let's say, let's see. All right. Let's see. All right. So if you are, if you make a good lasagna, let's say, and somebody goes, Oh man, my friend makes a great lasagna and she's all, takes her all day. She's a 10 hours in the kitchen. Then you have a taste of that lasagna and you taste it and you go, pretty good, but you make lasagna and it's maybe not quite as good as yours. And so the other guy who doesn't make any lasagna goes, Oh my God, 10 hours in the kitchen. That's amazing. It's amazing. It's amazing. It's amazing. You know, and I'm sort of like I could ride a unicycle. So if I see someone riding a unicycle, I kind of go, I feel a way about anything I can do. Yes. I just go, but if there's something I can't do, like I go, Oh wow. That's impressive. You know, when I say like ladies gymnastics, you know, I go, Oh, figure skating. Yeah. That's great. Oh, I, so I like to surf, but I'm not good at surfing. And I always look at good surfers and I'm like, Damn it. How do they make it look so easy? I have a great appreciation. The further way you get from me doing what I can't do, then I appreciate it more. And if I feel like I could do it, then I realize that it's no value. Unless it's public school teachers because neither of us want to do that and we don't have an appreciation for it. Yes. Well, there's everything that falls in the middle, but there's another side of that, which is when people act in a certain way that I would never do, I'm always, I have a confusion about it. Like, God, please. Like when they just do stuff for you to go, I would never like walk up to another table at the restaurant and go, excuse you. Could you turn your voice down just to look like I go, leave him alone. Leave him alone. I saw a clip of someone fighting at a McDonald's. And the fight at the McDonald's was a guy who could be related to Dawson, I'm not sure. He does look like your long lost brother. And a sassy black woman behind the counter. And also, I worked at McDonald's. You did? You and the president both worked at McDonald's? Sorry, he pretended to work at a McDonald's. Me and Kamala Harris worked at a McDonald's. Thank you. She has a picture to back it up. So I worked at McDonald's. And I remember very distinctly before I started, they showed you a training video. And in the training video. Like when you go to jury duty, they're like, this is what you're going to do. This is what you're going to do. And here's what not to do. I mean, it's such a giant corporation. They have to say you watched a training video. Otherwise, they're going to get sued by every McDonald's must be getting sued by an employee every 10 seconds. It's probably more efficient for them to have you watch a training video than to send somebody, like to send a physical rep to every location to train the new guys. The training video is on a bunch of stuff, but one is what to do if there's a robbery. And I remember now I'm 16 and I had my sort of Joker jack off little voice in my head all the time. But I mean, I remember I knew I was a loser working at McDonald's, you know, but I was like, if they try to do some sort of takeover robbery of this place, I'm not going over the counter yelling not on my watch. Because this thing is like, don't fight these people. Give them whatever they want, let them leave. I was like, in my head, I was kidding. I remember at the time I was going, what do you mean? I'll jump in the van with them to get out of here. Like there's no way I'm doing battle. I'm making $2.75 an hour. Did you see Roof Man? No, I haven't seen that yet. It's good. It's pretty good. Yeah. So sorry, this is what it's making me think of robbing McDonald's. All right. So I was like, I'm just giving them whatever they want. But this woman who works at the McDonald's is fighting this guy. So we'll just listen to it. It's pretty good. The guy, I guess he ordered a filet of fish and he got a cheese burger and he's pissed. All right. Hold on. It's already gotten ugly. But see, I work in town. So, okay, listen, let me give you five filet of fish. Just wait outside, which please, we'll bring it out there. Like at this loud fucking battle that only dumb people can handle. I feel like this person started recording after something had already happened though. I mean, he sounds like Dawson's cousin. To be fair, it was Lent when this happened. Yeah, he went to play a fish. I don't know. All right, keep playing. There's a great thing. She also schools him up on like tartar sauce or something. It's kind of funny. I love the fact when she gets all sassy and yells, know your sauces. Know your sauces. That's her rallying cry. Like, God, someone's got to put that on a t-shirt. I'm going to cross stitch that. Keep please. Go back 10 seconds. Like, they're getting it. By the way, he's going to make it ugly. She's like, bring it. I'm getting $11 an hour. I wonder how many idiots she had to deal with all day to make her this upset at this one guy. I bet she's just dealing with assholes all day long. I just like when she schooled him on sausage. Sausage. Right. All right. What kind of sauce is this? You look at it. It's not tartar sauce. She says it's Big Mac sauce. Oh, know your sauce. No, your sauce. That's Big Mac sauce. It's actually called special sauce. It is. You're talking to a guy who's applied 70 gallons of that in six months with a caulking gun. I know that. By the way, comes from the gun. Stop. You got to think about McDonald's. Like, what do you think? I'm back there with a whisk, you know, making it by hand. Now they claim that it's like, never frozen, always fresh. Maybe all those things, but it's in a caulking gun. I don't like the special sauce. I prefer like, if I go somewhere and I want the special sauce, it's like Chick-fil-A sauce. Well, you don't know your sauces. All right. No, I do know my sauces. I know what sauces I prefer. Well, you don't know tartar from Big Mac sauce. I just feel like what grown man needs to escalate that much if he's pissed over. I agree. I agree with that part, but I'm still, the person that works in McDonald's is going to be a fuck it. Whatever this guy, I'm getting out of here in half an hour. But I wonder what the, yeah, I think that she had a lot of interactions like this one throughout the day and she's like, I'm not giving this MF her discount. I think you're being too easy on her. I don't care. I just, it's not your McDonald's. The whole thing about people is like, I worked in McDonald's. I didn't think it was my McDonald's. I was just there getting $3 an hour. I wasn't going to fight anyone over anything. But so you would let that guy, you'd just be like, here's your money? I would because it's not my money. It's McDonald's money and they got enough money. And I want to, this guy is the threat. That sounds very woke of you. I want to get him out of my face. They have enough money? This guy's big. She's small and he's threatening me. And I want to defuse the situation. So I just gave him a quarter pounder, a Big Mac, a flay of fish and a large fry and I sent him out the door. You sent him out his way. Yes. Factor, you're hungry, tired. There's some greens and chicken in the fridge. You should cook and you just don't have it in you. For me, eating healthy isn't a willpower problem. It's a setup problem. That was until I found factor, factor solves that by delivering fully prepared meals, designed by dietitians and crafted by chefs straight to your door. My favorite is the roasted garlic chicken.

See website for more details. All right, news. News. So Jennifer Seibel, is that how you say it? Seibel Newsom? It's just as cray cray as her husband. This video has been floating around where she talks about really an awful tragedy that I did not know where her older sister when she was eight and Jennifer was six was accidentally killed in a golf cart accident. Which is horrible. Putting that out there. But the rest of this video is just insane, the stuff that comes out of her mouth. Well, she's equally nuts as Newsom and he has horrible retarded destructive thoughts as she does in super liberal thoughts. But as a politician and a dude, he can measure them a little bit. She's not a politician and she's a chick. So she just spits it. She just spits it out. You think he measures all of his comments when he just disagrees with somebody and calls them gay or insinuates that they're a child predator? He does a better job of measuring when he sits down with Ben Shapiro and they start talking about women and men and sports. He catches himself and does a little bit. He, listen to me, stop arguing with me. He does a better job, a better job, not a good job. Just he can measure himself because he's a politician. He's a dude. He can measure. But when he's with people that agree with him, I think the crazy really comes out. And I think in this situation, she's sitting with somebody. She's not sitting with your Ben Shapiro. She's sitting with somebody that's nodding along and agreeing with her. Agreed, but she also will say higher percentage of insane things out loud. That's all I'm saying. Or you can argue. You can say. This is pretty insane. This thing she's about to say is very insane. All right, here we go. I had to be very raw when we interviewed the young men who were juvenile offenders in San Quentin. I told them about my own loss where I lost my older sister a few days before my seventh birthday and I blamed myself for her death. And I should have that. By the way, hold on. That is the widest thing ever killed by a golf cart. These other guys, they've all lost, they're all in San Quentin. They're all juveniles. So they all lost their sister to a stray bullet with gun activity, gang activity or something. Nobody got run over. That is a white person problem. Well, to me, we should almost tick off how many crazy things are that she says because it's like, what loss is she, she's talking about crimes that they committed. Like if they murdered somebody, is it really a loss? They do this. Do you know what it is? A lot of Muslims are being discriminated because some people did something. Oh, you mean radicals, flu, commercial airliners into financial centers and killed 3,000 people? Some people, something. That's the first crazy thing that she said. That's what they do. Okay, here we go. I lost my older sister a few days before my seventh birthday and I blamed myself for her death. I should hear that because they ultimately were accused of committing these violent crimes and sentence for life. And I think it shocked them that this blonde lady who was interviewing them had a similar story, was perhaps in the wrong place at the wrong time. And same thing number three. But yeah, so I went down and many of these kids had killed a Korean liquor store owner by running them over the golf cart by mistake. And now they're insane. Quentin She has a similar story. Right. Everything was a mistake. They're all there. If we're going to circle back to narcissistic behavior as well, like talking about her appearance as she's talking about trying to help these young men in prison. She's a white person with blonde hair. So there's more here. So it's, she's clinically insane. By the way, this is why you don't want any of these people in power because she would let all of them out. Because they're similar to her. Right. They just made a mistake. It was perhaps in the wrong place at the wrong time. But wasn't punished the way they were because clearly it was an accident, but theirs was probably an accident too. So anyway, share that just because I guess, you know, I quite enjoy spending time with people and being real and unmasking. She unmasked. And showing them that it's safe to unmask themselves. There's a lot of makeup for someone who's unmasking. All right. So I would love to just go down the rap sheet of these fucking guys, like stab the stranger in the neck on a bus, you know, ran over somebody after they were trying to steal their cattle. There was an accident. Yeah. The only reason they're there is because they're not a white blonde woman. And well, it was a lot of its timing. It was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Remember, remember the city council woman or the, was it up in Seattle? No, this is Chicago. This is the one who was talking the, oh God, it's the ombudsman or whatever the, who was that? Sorry. And Andrew, no, but remember Chicago, that chick was up there and like, well, she was just out enjoying the lake at night. Wrong time, wrong place, wrong time. She was murdered by an illegal, you fucking idiot. Alder woman. Sorry. Alder woman. Remember? That was talking about that poor young lady that was younger. Yeah. It's just, it could have been your memes. It's a little bad timing going on out there. Yeah. She was just murdered, gunned down, killed. By an illegal immigrant. Executed in the back by an illegal immigrant, but wrong place, wrong time. And we don't know what happened. I mean, maybe she went out to the pier and startled the young lad. So remember last week when we were, Jesus Christ. People are not going to fucking rest until every homicidal maniac is running the streets. Well, and it's very interesting that their narrative has changed from don't blame the victim to blaming the victim. Yes. And last week we played that clip of Amber Rose and Nick Cannon talking about how like she's hardcore conservative now. And ironically, maybe 12, 11, 12 years ago, she did kind of like the, what was it? It was like, the slut march. I was a grand marshal. I wrote in a convertible Miata. And I remember at the time, a lot of conservatives were like, wait, what the heck? We're, we're okay with women like dressing like sluts now. But the, her point was it's not, you can't make the short skirt. It was the woman's fault argument. And at that time, before she became more conservative, she was saying that was what conservatives did. Right. Oh, how the turns of tabled to quote Michael Scott, that now it is literally the left that is saying, well, you know, it's that poor young woman's fault. They didn't even say a poor young woman. It's just her fault for being where she was when she was. It's not their fault for having a porous borer that lets violent illegal criminals in. Yeah. It's the victim's fault. Yeah. Andrew, you were saying it the other day, but many have said it, the sort of short mini skirt argument. She shouldn't have been wearing that if she didn't want to get raped, which is something they argue against all time, but it's what they do now. We have the clip of the Chicago. Mariah Haddon, Chicago older woman. Yeah. It's all the same speech. It's all some, it's, it's, it's some people did something. That was Ilhan Omar that said that, right? Some people did something. And now they're, now by the way, and now the guy, now the Muslims are the victim because white guys called him a towel head or something versus being dead. But this is, this is her, which is great. We're out doing normal, normal things people do in the neighborhood. And it sounds like this might have been a wrong place, wrong time, running into a person who had a gun. They might have startled this person at the end of the pier unintentionally. Uh-huh. Starled the person on the pier. So if I start all a man with a gun on the streets of LA is, is we're going to be like, you know what? She was asking only if you're running away, screaming, and he shoots you in the back. Okay. But I might have startled them. Somebody did something. You know, if somebody jumps over my fence and then I threaten them with the gun and then they start to run away and I shoot them in the back, I would go to jail. Oh yeah. But that guy gets defended by idiot politicians after murdering a young woman. That's how they love, they have to, they've, they've been put in an unenviable position, which is they let in a bunch of illegals and then they declared their cities and states, sanctuary cities and states, and then the illegals they let in who are seeking sanctuary in their states are killing Americans. And now they're in a weird position that they have to defend the illegal killers because that was their idea. And really the reason these people are dead. Do you think that our first person or what is it? What, what does she call herself? Partner. First partner thinks that she appears genuine in these videos. I like, it's kind of like when Gavin said that he was coming to LA to work on the homeless problem and he didn't meet a homeless person. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's like he, they haven't been to the dream center. Ivanka, frickin Trump has been to the dream center meeting homeless people and handing out food and they say that they care, but not seeing you do anything that actually shows that you care. The optics are always weird. Like remember during COVID and Nancy Pelosi was on like Jimmy Fallon show and she's like, let me show you my two walk-in sub-zero refrigerators. Just combined worth is way more than your family's worth. I like chocolate. I like imported chocolate. I like special chocolate. It's like everyone else is sitting in the, It's easy to stay at home. Everyone else is sitting in their one bedroom apartment with no air conditioning, planning on getting divorced and day drinking. And she's giving us Willie Wonka's factory tour and like someone had to say, bitch, literally that is more refrigerator than most people's net worth. Yes. And maybe optically with all the insider training and everything. Like maybe that's not, maybe you should go out to the garage. As you sit on billionaire row behind gates and armed security. Right. I don't know why people don't say, you know, you dress to the nines lecturing people on what it's like to lose somebody or whatever. It's just, it's, it's all kind of gross. I think that we are all guilty of listening to the own confirmation bias that we want to hear and living in our own bubble. Left, right. I get it, but we don't have handlers like people consultants, consultants. Consultants are just there for the paycheck though. They don't give a shit about like, but they should also be like going to the French Laundry in the middle of a pandemic. It's just not, it's not worth it. Just don't do it. But when you're in that bubble where everybody else wants to be in that crowd and hang out and do those things and you yourself as a consultant want to be able to do those things, you're not going to ruffle or, you know, as my grandma used to say, like, you're not going to bite the hand that feeds you. Well, that's why they nod and they tell her that she's doing a great job comparing her childhood tragedy to murders on death row at San Quentin. And they don't realize that the general public is like, what the actual. This is why the job title needs to be changed. When I started my morning show, taking over for Howard Stern, we had Jimmy Kimmel as a consultant, but his job was as an insultant. He would come in and go, God, today's show sucked. Fucking Adam, you talked about vintage car race for 22 minutes. I timed it. You're boring the shit out of everyone. So really what you need is an insultant. And that insultant would go, you're not going to come up there dressed like Barbie wearing 20 grand worth of jewelry. And they don't tell people about the haves and the have nots and all that. And Gavin Newsom, you can stay at home and I'll go get you some French Laundry with your favorite soup and I'll bring it back to your mansion. You're going to sit in a group in the middle of a terrace with 28 other people with everyone's got a fucking phone and they're going to film you after you've locked everyone in their own house. No, no, no. Now that's a retarded idea. You go home, I'll go to the French Laundry and get checked. It's an insult. You see, liberals need conservatives. We should start a side hustle. Insultant. We volunteer as tribute to be the conservative insultants for liberals. Yes. Only if they pay really well. All right, one more story. One more story. So Billy Bush recently claimed that ABC had apparently 75 people in a division to quote unquote get Donald Trump back during the 2016 election. He made the shocking claim on a recent episode of, oh, hey, my former bosses show Sean Hannity, where he revealed that ABC allegedly had that department and the Access Hollywood alum dish that ABC News thought that they, and he knows about it because he knew the guy that ran it. He said it was dedicated to basically getting Trump and the big network news all have different voices all over politics, but not them at the time. Here he is. Determination to find something. Imagine going around asking that question. Who has something? Who has like, there's evil in that. ABC said it's somebody that we don't like. They had a division dedicated with 75 people in it because I know the guy who ran the division, which was dedicated to basically getting him. Wow. And all the big network news that I understand all of that. You can do what they have a voice and different networks have different voices. All right. The thing, this is all fine, except for the part where at a certain point when Trump is being interviewed by Leslie Stahl or some fire, some Ted Cruz type comes in and goes, look, look, I get it. I know how you vote. Sir, I'm a journalist. How dare you assume that you know, you don't know how I vote. It's like, listen, that's all you do. Remember back, all you guys do is go after Trump. It's literally when you look at those things, it's like 97% negative reporting on Trump, 3% positive. Kamala Harris, 94% positive, 6% negative. It's like, it's, everyone knows what's going on, but you. Yeah. Well, and it's not just Trump. This is going back years and years and years. I mean, remember back to the Candy Crawley, like shushing Mitt Romney when he was rebutting and following debate rules against Barack Obama. He duct tape a dog to the roof of his car and killed it. He's binder full of women. He binder, binder. He keeps women in a binder, and then he shaved that gay kid's head in high school, except for we can't find that kid. That kid's probably living with Kamala Harris as McDonald's manager somewhere in seclusion. Jesus Christ. I think what's sad, though, is that this stuff keeps coming out. I mean, we had the NPR whistleblower after the CEO of NPR was like, oh no, we're fair and we're balanced and please don't take away our tax dollars. We represent the local communities, yada yada. And then you have all these former NPR employees recently saying, no, no, no, no, like it is such a bias behind the scenes. I think my frustration is, we talk about this, Sean's talking about this, but you still have a vast majority of the American public that doesn't understand this. Well, that's, that's the part. It's so blatantly obvious if you just watched their coverage, how they vote and who they're rooting for and who they endorse, whether they say it out loud or not.
