Welcome to the lineup live here on Rumble, where each show rolls into the next from 8am to 7pm Eastern, I believe Eastern. I don't know. I'm still on some of the pain medication, but not really. I just use it as an excuse. That's a lie. I'm gonna try and not lie good. Every now I'm like, ah, but I know I just got the times wrong. But you don't need to change that dial. That's the point. Obviously today a couple things to get into our hearts go out. Thoughts and prayers. People say it's cliche. I don't care. It's about all I can offer to those affected in Montreal shooting. I don't want to say my hometown, but really it is. I was raised there from three to 18 and this is the fourth mass shooting that I can remember in my lifetime. So we're going to go through that. A couple of dynamics that I think are important to note. The obvious one being that the United States is not a unique place and that we're the only country with mass shootings. You'll hear that I don't know that there's a major city that has had more than Montreal, let alone how poorly they've handled it. Then we're also going to get into John C. Reilly on this recent feminist podcast talking about how Elon Musk is, you know, racist and empathy is good and that you should be empathetic to all the LGBTQ immigrants. It makes no sense. Hollywood is so completely self unaware, I don't know if they can correct it. Which will bring us to a mud club movie review. Citizen vigilante review on that one might not be what you expect. On with the show. Sam, Click Rumble Premium and join now for 99 annually or 9.99amonth to get the entirely ad free experience and an ever expanding roster of content creators and free speec. That's what I know. That's still there. I was just checking. I thought. No, I thought I was mauled. I was mauled by a demon in my sleep last night.
B
Oh.
C
Oh.
A
How are you supposed to protect yourself? And there was no other explanation until I woke up and I realized that Joe Louis was with me under the covers. Like maybe that's a possibility. You sleep with one dog as opposed to four dogs. Perfect claw mark. I don't know. What do you guys think? Demon or dog? That is a demon. That was the sound of a demon. That's the Joker and the Michael Keaton Batman after he falls.
D
Right?
A
Hey, another question of the day. Can you name me a job that a woman, a female, a lady, might be more apt to perform than, say, police officer? Name me a job. Any job. Comment below and we'll read some in chat. We're live weekdays, 11:00am how are you, Kev? Morgan. See you.
C
I'm well.
E
How are you?
C
Good.
A
You're back.
D
I am.
A
Feel good?
E
I do.
A
Good for you.
E
I wasn't sick.
A
It's ok. No, I know. But you're doing all right.
E
I'm doing well. I wouldn't say all right. I would say well.
A
He's a good man. Yeah, he's a good man. He's not. Wednesday, June 24, he is at the Absent Improv in Dallas, Texas. Not Firestein on X. Josh Firestein. How are you?
C
Good. Yeah, it's tomorrow. Can't wait.
A
That's right. It is tomorrow.
E
I was.
A
I get so used to reading the actual date, I'm like, that's right. Tomorrow, Addison Improv. You going to be there?
C
Yeah. Put him on the spot. Yes.
A
Yes, I might.
C
It is my birthday.
E
It's a cardboard cutout.
A
No, I have everyone's birthday in my calendar. I have everyone's birthday in my calendar. Except for Johnny. Johnny?
E
Yes, because he went in and removed it.
A
He removed it and he's removed it so many times that then I thought I remembered it and caught him and I was a day late.
E
His cybercrime was removing his birthday from your calendar.
A
And then he makes him ask that nobody can meet. I don't know what's wrong with him.
C
You should go death wish on him.
A
I should?
D
No.
A
I should be like, hey, you monk puke. Hey, you want a pinch to grow an inch?
C
What?
E
I think that's a salt. I don't know about that one.
A
Hey, I got one for you for good luck. You vomit. Satchel.
F
All right.
A
Charles Bronson. I still enjoy it. First story. This is fun.
E
Is it?
A
And by fun, I mean stupid. Here's a woman who happens to be black. I don't see color or shade just to be clear. But I am. I haven't. I need to. Just because you. May I do this for you, a woman who happens to be black. Guys, color, race does not define people. Just to be clear, okay? Racism is bad. A woman who happens to be black explains why it's a good thing to eat watermelon on Juneteenth.
F
Drinking the blood of my ancestors on the campus that profited from them, drinking sorrow, known across the African diaspora as bisak or sobo. And I'm eating Watermelon. Not because of the stereotype, but because after emancipation, watermelon became a symbol of black freedom. Newly freed people, where does koolaid fit in?
A
Fruit for themselves.
F
White America later turned that success into a shameful caricature. The tradition of red foods on Juneteenth
C
is shameful about watermelons.
F
The bloodshed by enslaved Africans and their descendants. It traces back to traditions carried across the middle Passage and remade wherever enslaved people survive. Bred for remembrance, resilience.
G
Resilience.
F
And the joy that survived. I'm black three times over, and I'm a young Yale alumna, standing on triple black, built on stolen land, enriched by enslaved labor the university never paid for. Today, Yale pays me for my mind. Red is the blood that they took, and red is proof that we are still here.
A
Well, no one said you weren't. Yeah, we know.
C
We're well aware.
A
Yeah, I've been to a movie. You're almost impossible to miss.
E
We've all seen the crime rate. We know.
A
No, we've all just. It's a very. You're very boisterous people.
C
I've been to Chili's.
G
On a Tuesday.
A
Yeah, yeah.
G
Go to.
A
I had a story and I went, no, no. I thought you were doubting me.
G
I was just saying, go to Chili's
C
today and tell me I'm wrong.
A
The problem is, I like chilies. It's the best deal going. You can get a burger and chips and salsa and a Dr. And I will fry it for, like, 10 bucks.
C
Yeah, but there's a reason why the silverware is plastic now.
E
I think they've revamped their skin.
A
There's a reason that you're like, why is my burger chained down?
D
Weir.
G
Juneteenth.
A
It's our special. It's The Juneteenth Burger.
E
900 extra days of Slavery Burger.
A
I feel like we're too far removed from this video to now make this punchline work. But you remember how in the video drinking watermelon was like drinking the blood of her ancestors, right? Cause now we're, like, two minutes removed, so that's what it symbolizes. Drinking the blood of their meaning.
E
Black people.
A
The way she puts it, ancestors. It's, I guess, her version of black communion. Is that what it is?
C
Oh, I thought it was just like ours.
A
Do they also take the body of their ancestors? Oh, good timing, this man. Everyone's let me in because, you know, it's. And I don't wanna do it. I don't wanna. I know it. I wrote it.
E
Do it.
A
Here's your ancestors last supper. Take my mother body drink my sheep fam. They wouldn't be able to crucify him because he's so fly
C
they had to use Dior nails instead of giving him
A
vinegar on a sponge. It's just diet. He's a bitch.
C
Yeah, he was wearing cross trainers.
A
Like, here's the thing we had. Before you say blasphemy, we had something uniting black and white Americans. We've gotten far away from it. Christianity, that was what united us. That was a big part. By the way, large Christian nuclear households in the black families here in the United States, they went to church at higher rates than white people. We all realize, hey, slavery was wrong. And the central component of the healing was, hey, we agree that it's wrong because we serve a God who tells us that we can't treat people this way. Can we move forward? And then that also was paired with forgiveness. These messages from the left are distinctly anti God. They're distinctly anti Christian. Why? Because there's no forgiveness. There's no redemption. There can be no absolution, and there certainly can't be accountability. So it's silly. And you look at it and you think woke. That's the actual satanic messaging. It's not Rihanna doing this with the eye. It's not Jay Z drinking the blood of unborn children. Whatever it is, these conspiracy theories out there, I'm sure that people are engaged in awful hedonism too, but it's right in front of your face. Yeah, we're not going to forgive. We're going to blame you for the sins of your ancestors, and we're not going to heal. There's no redemption. It's anti God. So let's go back to we were healing. Race relations were better, and now they're worse. Have we gotten closer or further from the through line of Christianity? It is that simple. Let me ask you, you think we'd be better off if. If right now you doubled the amount of black Americans and white Americans in Christian church, you think we'd be better off? You think race relations would be better? Do you think interracial crime would be better? Wouldn't be perfect. You could double the number, be a lot better. That's it.
E
My main takeaway is that I can say that black people like watermelon and not be offensive. It's actually. It's supportive.
C
I should have never been offensive. Everybody likes watermelon. This hurtful stereotype. It's delicious. What are you talking about?
E
He does not like watermelon.
A
Also, you know who wanted us to appreciate black cuisine? Early black entrepreneurs. Yeah, that was the thing. It was. Hey, come try our. Isn't it great? There was also some healing there. Now it's appropriate. Everything that could result in healing could result in bridging the gap has now been made to be a landmine field. That's what it is. Hold on. You can like it, but not too much. That's cultural appropriation. Yeah, well, we're not going to forgive because down the lines. Well, it turns out my forefathers were slaveholders. Sunny Hoston. Oh, let's just ignore that. It's all. And then they blame you for the division. These extreme people on the right, everything they push is a direct move to force more division. It's not your fault for responding to it and isolating yourself from those people who are seeking to divide this country. And they've been successful. The left. Now here's another one, too. Second Amendment was not a divisive issue in the United States for a very long time. It became one. It became politicized and now it's come full circle. It's a single biggest losing issue for the left, where they don't even push it that much. They'll still, though, whenever there's a mass shooting, before the bodies are cold, they'll try and trot something out. They have to for their donor class. But you've been told from the left that it's a uniquely American phenomenon, mass shootings. It's not true. It's never been true. Of course, more violence in the United States is being carried out with guns than, say, knives, because we have access to them. But we don't have the highest violent crime rate in the world. We do not have the highest mass shooting rate in the world. And if you eliminate, if you take away from the statistics, the majority of white Anglo Saxon Americans, guess what? You'd have one of the lowest crime rates in the world. Hey, we'd be like Norway. We get it now. This brings me to Montreal. There was a shooting yesterday. Just awful tragedy. It's the fourth one, to my recollection, in the city of Montreal in my lifetime. Did you guys know that? Check the references. We make them available every show we stream, weekdays, 11am Eastern. Is there another American city where you can go, wait a second. Four mass shootings in the same zip code. I can't think of one. Obviously, Bloods and Crips and gang shootouts notwithstanding. So yesterday, this shooting took place, I believe, in the Cote d' Nige neighborhood, Montreal. If I'm not mistaken. We'll go through the details. Each one is worse than the last.
G
A Montreal police officer, a civilian and a suspect are dead Monday after a shootout between a commercial residential building and a hotel next to De Carrey Boulevard and Courtrai Avenue. Witnesses we spoke to said they saw the shootout between the gunman and police officers take place on the ground, one seeing a police officer go down and that the shooter had what appeared to be a rifle. According to the SPVM, the shooting began around 11:35am Montreal Police Chief Fadi Dagger has confirmed that at this point there was only one suspect, the suspect who died, who was involved in the shooting.
A
So let me give you what we know, what we don't, and then we'll get to the manifesto and it's possibly the worst one ever. One officer was killed, 34 year old Mohammed Lamine Benridouan, if I'm getting that correct. Obviously our prayers go out to the family there. One civilian was killed, Michael Mizrahi, who was very likely. We'll get to some footage shot by the female officer in question, who did not handle this well. And then the shooter of course, was killed by police. So the main takeaway, like I said here, is four shootings in Montreal. The ones that I'm going off of. 89 was Ecole Polytechnique. 14 were dead, 13 were injured. Concordia University shooting in 92. 4 were dead, 1 was injured. Dawson College. I had friends in that college at that time. 19 injured, but only one dead, which is kind of remarkable. It was something where people were defenseless. And honestly, the shooter was just bad. He was just a bad shot. Thank God that he was. Outside of the United States, from 2000 to 2025, there have been 99 mass shootings across what you would consider developed countries, first world countries. So this idea that only takes place in the United States, that's not true. And I would expect it to get worse also. I don't care if it's a mass shooting or a mass stabbing or someone uses a car. My primary gripe is with evil and those who use violence to carry it out. But the argument as it stands doesn't work. There are mass shootings in other countries and we are not at the top of any of these lists. So here's what we also know, and I know what people are going to say. Uvalde. And no one was more critical of police there than us.
C
Very harsh.
A
You'd get police, male and female, all the time, who make mistakes, who are not trained very well. That's why we discussed the. I believe it was Columbus police chief who said that, you know, citizens, they don't have enough training with guns. Like the average police officer in many departments, only you only go through 50 rounds a year in training. So that's not lost on me. However, before we get to the discussion of better training for all officers, can we also eliminate certain outliers that don't need to be included? Meaning would we be safer if we didn't have female officers, period? Sure, there will be bad male police officers, but in dealing with the starting point, women shouldn't be cops. Aren't you tired of pretending like they should? Now, it's not just that they're physically weak and can be overpowered and their only option is to go to a firearm, right. They're going to feel more intimidated, more quickly, more rapidly than say, someone like Gerald. Their only tool is going to be a mechanical advantage. They are a female officer, don't care how tough she is, she is never ever going to subdue a male, let alone 1 on PCP who's slightly above average in size. What we seem to see here, and we have clips from multiple angles we want to point out to you what's going on is this female officer mistook a bystander for the shooter. Looks like she shot him and then after that ran away, which left others exposed. Basically the worst way you could handle it. And I get that these officers have difficult situations. Here's the breakdown. That's someone watching. Female officer is behind the barrier. Holy shit. You'll see her.
F
There.
A
Shooter. There's a female officer.
C
Nice hit.
A
He. Start shooting over here.
C
Yeah.
A
So it's chaotic and maybe we could get that other. The aerial angle, if we have it, of where she allegedly potentially shoots the bystander, because that's a little bit clearer. He didn't act in a way that would be in accordance with self preservation, I would say. But she reacted startled. That's a big thing. Reaction time. The difference between men and women. Let's get into this because if you are in a fire in the third story, be honest. You want to see a medium sized lady show up, you're dealing with a violent perp in your house who's on drugs. You want to see an average sized woman show up. Let's just be real about this and let's get to the studies reflect this time and time again. They look at, they've looked at male units versus mixed units, not just male units versus female, male units versus mixed units and the all Male units are faster, more accurate, they get injured less. They are far better actually at acting in a coordinated, in a coordinated form of movement, working as a unit, working as a team. This is something that anyone who's been in any type of organized sports, or very likely the military would know. It's a better dynamic, the more homogenous it is, particularly as it relates to gender. We have study after study. Even if I will say that the men's personal training regimen can be seen rightfully as questionable, It works and you're still no better at the haka dance. And you practice. It'd be worse if you didn't practice, but you practice and it's still offensively bad.
E
It's like losing animals. It takes time.
C
I thought it was good.
A
I was all right, all right.
C
No one wanted to be around him, that's for sure.
A
That's true. That's absolutely true. So there you go. When it comes to female officers having to deal with perpetrators perps, they are less effective. They are significantly more injured, far more often and you know, big indicator that's very important. People talk about women in the gym. Some women will be able to train a movement, females in general. The grip strength is just something that cannot be overcome and it's a rate limiting factor in a lot of physical altercations. Barring hyperly technical training, 95% of men have greater grip strength than nearly all female athletes trained specifically in grip centric sports. It's just saying they also have failed far more often. Standard pistol qualifications under realistic training scenarios, particularly if there's a heavier trigger pull weight, which is standard in many police units. As far as reaction time, men have much faster reaction times, to be clear, especially under stress. That's the primary difference between the male and female brain. This myth of multitasking, it's not people can't really multitask. Women often have more neural flexibility to go from one task to another, which appears as multitasking. Men are better at locking in on one. And even during times of stress, it's not like these other societies that didn't have access to books, to libraries, to data, to scientific information. It's not like they missed it when they said, okay, men are better hunters, men are better going out there where they are likely to be killed, they react better. So we want them to do that. And we want the women to be in the village doing things that are important, but maybe more tasks that are lower stress, they're more effective at that. That's something that everybody knows. But for some Reason. In the name of equality, we've put women into positions where they just biologically are incapable of at large being as effective as men. The result, more people die, more accidents happen, more lapses in judgment. Just the injury rates alone. Like, if you look at females in the army, they're 67% more likely to be discharged for some type of physical injury. Musculoskeletal disorder, if you look at. That's in the army specifically, if you look at marine females, 100% more likely to be injured while bearing loads. What are we doing here? I've been talking about this for a very long time, and every. It's one of those situations where when I talk with people in real life, it's incredibly rare to even hear a woman go, well, I think that women should be cops. I think that women should be on the front lines. So you're going, who is pushing this?
E
Yeah.
A
Let alone it's now the norm.
D
Yeah.
E
It's always about being allowed to do something. It's like, should we look a little bit past that? Like, do we really want that? So let's talk. Let's take this female cop. I think she's probably going to be a very. Let me. Let me put it this way. She's almost 100% going to be less safe around other people in this situation. She's not going to be able to secure people easily. She's not going to be able to subdue a suspect or cover her partner as well. Even if it's a 7 to 10% difference, that's enough. Right. In this situation. So it's bad for her and it's bad for everybody else. I don't want to put her in that situation on top of everybody else in that situation.
A
Right.
E
I want to keep her out of that situation. I want a man to go in there and have to do the hard stuff like this and have to protect other people and potentially die to protect the community. I don't want to send our women into those situations. Why aren't we thinking more on those lines? Instead of saying, well, just I can do anything a man can do. It's like, well, that's. It's really not the point at this point. And no, you can't. But that's really not the point.
A
Right. It comes down to this. Okay, let's just say we approach police force, military. Military. As unselfishly as possible. All right? Take away your political views, take away what you want to do as far as serving your country, for example, you have some people who Want to be pilots and they can't because they don't have the vision for it. Right?
E
Yep.
A
When you are applying for the police force or military, ask yourself, are you the best person to be doing this job or are you taking the spot of someone who could be. It's that simple. Could someone be more physically capable? Is there someone out there who statistically may have a higher aptitude for this type of profession? And if the answer is yeah, you are actually not the best for this job, and it involves people's lives other than your own. Step aside. Make room for the right person. It's not about you. It's not about you. It's that simple. I mean, just the load bearing stat in the Marines. Like, why are women in the Marines, of all places? The female Marines. That should be an oxymoron. Just like jumbo shrimp. It makes no sense.
C
Their uniforms fit really nicely.
A
Well, good. Along with the stretchy. They do.
C
What do you want from me?
A
Stretchy maternity flight suits.
B
Yeah.
A
Let's spend a few billion dollars on that. Call it progress. But we do all have to bear the load of taxes, which sucks. Luckily, there's help there with Tax Network usa. Tios mio. What is overpaying on your taxes?
D
Feel like.
A
That was close, Sam. About like that. Don't let the IRS bust your balls. Visit tnusa.com Crowder for immediate relief and expert guidance. And sorry to our Canadian viewers, they can't help you.
E
It just.
A
You just enjoy that top 52%, top marginal tax rate that kicks in really quickly. And you're 14 to 15% sales tax. It's a silly country. I don't know why we haven't taken it over.
E
Plenty of reasons. Mostly that we just don't want it. We'll take the resources.
D
Yeah.
E
And some of the people. Some of the people are pretty cool. But a lot of people, we don't want them. Just leftists.
A
Well, there's a manifesto from the shooter. Good.
C
They always do that.
A
Yeah. And I don't really even want to give you his name or I certainly don't want to make the person famous. But I do think it's important to know the motivation because the media will misrepresent it. It's not being talked about a lot in American media. That's pretty telling. But even in Canadian media, they will black out certain aspects. So let me just give you the short end of it. The shooter is a communist. He's a communist who's also a black pillar. So they'll try and say he's an incel. They'll try and say he's part of the red pill community. They'll try and say he's part of the manosphere. This person is a communist. He is a Marxist, he's a self avowed Marxist Leninist. And he argues that male romance, sexual romantic deprivation are the byproducts of capitalism. So let me read this to you from. He says, put it quite simply, capitalism is a system based on the continual profit of a select few people who are the bourgeois class. And it was ultimately the case that the widespread practice of monogamy simply proved to be less monetarily profitable for the bourgeois than hypergamy did. So he's a communist, He's a Marxist. Okay, then this idea of black pilling of people who are, you know, anti, actually anti woman, not people who believe in complementary gender roles, not people who believe in the nuclear family, who believe in traditional views of women and men, but people who have become soured and
E
actually
A
have disdain for women. That's found on both the left and the right. To be clear, that's not a political issue. What is a political issue is radical Marxism, Communism that is distinctly left. You will find plenty of people on the left and the right who are to use whatever term you want to misogynist, whatever. So they'll try and attribute this to the right. Don't allow that to happen. Here's something that he writes and I will say this. This is, it's very reflective of a lot of these people on the Marxist right. It's nihilism. Yeah, it's. There's nothing you can do about it. Right. Our big right with the left has always been there's nothing you can do. There's nothing you can do. It must be some cabal of people. It's the government. There's nothing you can do. You can't work harder. There's no way to improve your circumstance. You need a bailout, you need some kind of a grant. Now you see that on the right they have a different boogeyman. These people are not on the right. It could be Israel, it could be Epstein, could be Elon Musk, could be Tech Bros. Not to say there aren't legitimate gripes with all of those people, but it comes down. There's nothing you can do to improve your circumstances. That's why the Marxists write that's where the horseshoe takes place. My life sucks and none of it is my fault. Some of it isn't your fault. How you deal with it is entirely your responsibility. So here's what he wrote. To obtain this female intimacy, the common male seeks to improve himself. The avenues of improvement which these males enter are those which are laid out openly in Western society for any male wishing to socially advance. Namely things along the lines of becoming wealthier, becoming more cultured, lifting weights, acting more confidently, dressing better, and other similar things which do not alter the core factors that truly decide male attractiveness, which are tall, height, just say height, the handsomeness of the face and race. Or in other words, things in which fertile females perceive actual genetic quality because they are things which cannot be altered easily in nature. There's some truth to that, but again, there's nothing you can do. You're going to tell me that you will not increase your odds if you actually want a mate, if you actually want to find a wife, and a man who finds a wife finds that which is good. You mean to tell me that getting in better shape. You mean to tell me that basic grooming principles. You mean to tell me that being successful in your professional endeavors. You mean to tell me that being more disciplined, being more articulate, being more confident, having more to offer will improve your chances? None. If you're short, which is not true, sure there will be some limitations. It's like saying, hey, you can never be Floyd Mayweather, you can never be Tyson Fury, you can never be Conor McGregor because they have gifts from God, sure, but you can't become any more capable at defending yourself. Let's eliminate world champion. Let's eliminate chads, the six foot five, seven figure incomes, right, who just have perfect symmetry. Let's eliminate that. Let's eliminate the world champions. You don't think that you can make yourself better than 99% of the population. Let's reduce it 90, 80. Here's how you know this person is a leftist. They haven't put in the work if that's what they believe. This is also why it's very, very important for young men to fail and to build themselves up. It's the only way to build actual confidence. And so this is an epidemic of no red pens. This is an epidemic of equalizing the soccer score so that no one's feelings are hurt. Because the only way a young male can develop self confidence is to get really, really good at something. Any young man who started off unable to bench press the bar and made it to three plates, any young man who wouldn't be able to go for a jog without getting winded because they were obese and then got down to 12% body fat was healthier able to play with his kids. Any man who's ever become strong, who has ever progressed through years and had something to show for it, will tell you that this is untrue. We don't have enough young men doing that. And so they just say none of it means that none of it's going to make a difference.
D
Yeah.
E
And also, how long did he try to. Do we know the age of the shooter right now? Is that something that was given out? I'd love if they can have that. Bring it in. But how many years did you go through this process? How many decades did you go through the process of trying to make yourself better, trying to find good things in life to do, to become a more attractive mate to potentially somebody else? How often did you say, I'm not giving up, because when I found my wife, I believe I was 38 years old when we met.
A
Yeah.
E
Not ideal. And I'm 6 foot 4. I played college football. I had my own business at the time. I worked in wine.
D
That's.
E
That's like.
C
Yeah. Get ladies drunk.
A
It's easy.
D
Yeah.
E
That's not what.
A
Everything's easier.
C
Yeah.
A
A little bit of cheese after a little bit of yellow tail.
E
You know, it's a little bit. It's kind of a cool. So you can fail for a lot of different reasons, and you can fail for a very long time. It's. It's this idea that, okay, well, I'm failing at this stuff. And so instead of trying to get better, instead of persevering, I'm just gonna say that the world is terrible, and I'm gonna go shoot people because of it.
A
Well, you know, here's a good example. And I say this. I don't say this to pat myself on the back. I say it to praise you. Gerald is a freak athlete. Okay. Gerald was so good at football that other kids were actually recruited to D1 schools because every major D1 school that you'd want to join in the country was recruiting Gerald. Gerald. That's a statement of fact. Right. You went in Notre Dame.
E
Yeah, it is.
A
Okay.
E
I didn't do a whole.
A
You have one of the fastest shuttle runs there, too, for a guy your size. I am by no means any type of genetic athlete. I didn't get it. That being said, we also went in a few times. You were training and grappling, and I knew that with a year's training, you'd be a problem. But it would maybe take 30 seconds for me to handle you on any given day in that endeavor.
E
We did it once.
A
We did it once. But with your natural gifts, Right? In other words, I'm able to surpass. I will never be as good as you would be had you trained that because of your genetic gifts, I will be better than 90% of the population. Yeah, that makes a difference. If we're now talking about the odds, out with the general public. And I have to defend myself. I'm not a world beater by any means. I never would say that I am. But to say it makes no difference.
E
Right?
A
So I'd like to actually here offer you guys some hope. And this is where we never want to leave you hanging. It's time for solutions. Okay, first one, get women out of combat in police roles. Just on a pragmatic level, and I've been saying this for a very long time, we have seen too many incidents like this. Yeah, negligent discharges, women panicking. Let's have women do things at which they excel more. We need to start getting back to now. Men are better at this. That's okay. And then as far as you. If you are someone who they would label incel. Black pillar. Look, it's not complicated. Work on yourself spiritually, mentally, physically, and get involved in activities with the kinds of people who are closest to the type of person you want to be. I'll often see this with young people going like, yeah, well, you know, we're no longer a Christian nation. And what are you doing? You're at home playing video games. You're not plugged in with a church. I tried that fitness racket. Well, why aren't you at a gym? This is what people do. It's all.
C
Yeah, I imagined like a. Like a tennis racket, but it's. You do some kind of weird fitness exercise with it.
A
Yeah.
C
Like you're writing it like one of those little pony. Yeah, pony broomsticks. Let me.
A
Anyone else?
C
Sorry, I didn't mean to derail you there.
A
Anyone out there? Let's go spiritually. Anyone out there? Comment below. Really? This may be helpful for people watching right now. You ever go through like a Bible in a year? You ever do that? I've done it a few times. And then also just done individual Bible studies. You ever have an aha moment when you're reading the Bible and you go, oh, oh, wow. And you highlight it, add that up hundreds of times and reread the scripture. Do you live by that? Has it improved your life? Has it improved your relationship? That's measurable progress mentally. You ever have times where you lose control when you're young, right? You spaz out. Temper tantrum. You ever improve it? You ever learn to control yourself a little bit better? You ever actually just mentally, you ever create a schedule or a routine and stick with it? When you didn't have it before, were you mentally better off? Comment. These things help. You ever lift the weight? It was really heavy and difficult. Two years later, that's your warmup. You ever go through that? Anyone who's experienced this? I've experienced all of those. By the way, can anyone say that those are not defining moments, let alone they don't make a difference? I had. I'll tell you a story with my lady again. We were at the water park, and my dad was there with the kids, and he was. Because after surgery, I'm not allowed to throw them. Like, throw me. Throw me. Like, dad, even though you're well into your 60s, you can do it. I'm not allowed to lift anything right now.
E
I'm a lever.
A
Yeah. And he was just launching them to the point where, you know, he had the whistle blown by the lifeguard and he's like, ah, shut up.
C
Yeah, I can imagine that. We went to that inflatable park that one time.
G
He just.
C
And your dad got talked to by the teenage referees, like, three times.
D
I know.
C
Like, hey, you can't be doing that.
A
He's like, I think that's what he likes about being older now. He just, like, he just figures they'll keep asking him but not do anything. No, they didn't do anything.
C
And the kids are fine.
A
Yeah, come on. I'm older. And they're like, yeah, but you're jacked. I can't hear you.
E
What?
A
So he was throwing the kids, and my dad looked very studly. And my woman said, like, oh, see, that's why it's genetic. You know it's genetic. When I see your dad and I see you, it's genetic that, you know, you're the size you are. I said, have you seen the videos that my dad has sent? He's very proud of, like, belt squatting, 700 pounds.
E
Yeah.
A
She said, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. I said, let me ask you, when you've gone to the gym, have you. Have you ever trained that intensely? She said, no. I said, so every time that people like my dad and myself are going into the gym, we are training more intensely than you have at any time. That's the old Alexander Carolyn quote. I train every day of my life as my opponent never has a day in theirs. But people will then go, well, it's genetic. In some cases it is. In some cases, it's very, very hard fought. The only way that a young man develops self confidence or self esteem is getting really good at something. Men. Comment below and tell me when you figured that out. Every man has had that moment where you go, wait a second, I'm a lot better at this, I can do that. But until you experience it, until you go through sucking and getting better and then eventually looking back and seeing the starting point and how far you've come, you will never have self confidence. You will never have self esteem. And you will always think that everything is outside of your control and you are a victim of circumstances. Spiritually, mentally, physically. There is something that you can do and not. These aren't small things. These can massively improve your life to the point where if you do this for one or two years, just every day, read your Bible and get stronger. Let's just do that. Read your Bible, meditate, pray. By that I just mean, you know, actually focus on things that are good for you. I don't mean sitting there and doing transcendental meditation. It could be focusing on one prayer. It could be mentally planning out your day, visualization, whatever. Read your Bible every day. Just call it 15 minutes a day. Work on your mind, do brain training, sudoku, I don't care. And get stronger every week compared to the last. Do it for a year. See how much better your life is. Then do it for two and see if you even recognize that person from two years ago. But there are a lot of young men. There are a lot of young men who feel this way. And you know what? I don't blame them. It's not because these men have had tough breaks. Some have. It's because the world was nerfed for them. And young men cannot develop self confidence or self worth by some do gooder teacher removing the red pen and saying, no, no, no, this is great. That doesn't work. That man needs to hear. That young budding man needs to hear. This is awful. You need to do better. They need someone who can encourage them, someone who can hold them to account and give them the tools to improve. Instead, we've removed those tools. We've removed competition as though it's evil. We've removed all of the mechanisms that are needed to develop robust men who believe in themselves and are willing to fight for something. You have a generation of young men who don't believe in themselves and aren't willing to fight for anything at all. I can't see any result Outside of this. So this young man was a Marxist, Leninist, which of course lends itself right away to. It's all out of your control. Someone else has to step in. Big government, big brother, Daddy needs to save you. Poor you. And by the way, none of it really means anything because there is no God. This is all purposeless. That's the horseshoe. There's plenty you can do. Try it. Try it for a year, come back and tell me it doesn't make a difference. This has been the solutions. By the way. Thank you for the raid, Dan. And yeah. Anything else you guys wanted to add?
E
I just wanted to change the finish line, too. The finish line for you, like the goal, right, is not marriage. That's something that we encourage for people and say that that is a good thing. Like you said, the Bible says a man who finds a wife finds a good thing. But your primary kind of relationship that you should be working on is with God. And if you start to pedestalize anything, you put something on a pedestal that shouldn't be there. God can do a lot of things to make sure that you don't mess that up. And so I'm incredibly grateful for the very difficult 20ish years of being single without a whole lot of prospects during that time where I did want to start thinking about marriage, that God did not allow that to happen because I was putting that on a pedestal, I would have done it completely wrong. I probably would have had severe difficulties. I probably would have picked horribly early on. And that was to my benefit right until I started focusing more on God. Well, I need to just be, like, living my life. I need to be found faithful when you come. Okay, so maybe I should apply that. I need to be found faithful. Whenever I meet my wife, I'm living life. I'm doing everything that God has asked me to do. I'm not waiting around thinking that life starts at marriage. I'm not waiting around thinking that somebody else completes me. I am fully confident in God, my relationship with God. I'm doing what he's called me to do. And when the time is right, God will bring a wife for me. And I'm doing everything that I should be doing for that. But when you start to say, I'm only trying to achieve that, that's when it gets really out of whack and people just lose all kinds of hope because of it.
A
Well, it's saying, yeah, it doesn't matter unless you're part of the. And by the way, statistically we've talked about this, women have Crazy, unrealistic expectations. Right. You can always bring up that chart. They rate 80% of men as below average, which is statistically impossible. Whereas men rate women on a perfect bell curve. We are far more lenient, far more gracious, forgiving, and willing to give more women a shot than women are men. That's true, but let's accept it. Let's just accept that premise. Let's say you follow the solution, those prescriptions, and you don't find the woman you want. So you'll be stronger, healthier, more mentally resilient, and very likely wealthier, if at least professionally more fulfilled. Personally more fulfilled without a woman anyway. That sound that bad to you? Or just sit and wallow? It doesn't mean that. I don't get it.
C
Yeah.
A
I've told first year membership, 12 years old because kid called me titties. And you know why? It stung. I had titties.
E
He was right.
A
I had titties.
E
I did too. I wore shirts to water parks for a long time.
A
That's right. What we say, Noodles say, nothing sexier to a woman than self pity. Yeah, exactly.
E
To find you sitting on mom and dad's couch eating Cheetos, playing video games. That's what she's looking for, boys.
A
Right.
C
Well, people are giving up too soon also.
E
Way too soon.
G
Yeah.
C
Keir Starmer, like, there's no shame in quitting, you know, There should be shame in quitting. Like, don't. You can't just quit early. Yeah. Without achieving your goals, it's like, ah,
A
it's all lost anyway. I get it. This idea like, I will never quit. Well, hold on a second. It's already checkmate, Right? I get that. Yeah. But people are quitting well before it's time to quit. Yeah, yeah. I mean, hey, okay, put it this way. Until you've read through the entire Bible once, I'll make it.
G
Really?
A
I'll give you two things. Until you've read through the entire Bible once and you've achieved a 1,000 pound total, that means deadlift, squat, bench press, £1,000. Until you've accomplished those two things, you haven't put in much work. Just that. I'll just give you that. Of course, there could be other metrics. There's a really simple one for mainstream American men. Read the whole Bible. 1000 pound total can be achieved by pretty much all men within a year. Do that. Do those two things. Tell me your life's not better. All right. Speaking of genetic anomalies, John C. Reilly, he does have it written all over his face.
E
He has a unique look.
A
And I've realized too, why the left? Yes, he does. Why the left? They really can't do very well in new media. Because new media, you think of people like Andrew Wilson, right? Sort of the bloodsport debates on Twitch. The left is. They require straw manning their opponent for their arguments to work at all. It's very difficult to sit opposite someone who makes a claim or straw mans your position and deal with. You say, well, that's not true. Allow me to clarify. Then their whole case goes out the window. That's John C. Reilly on this it's open podcast. The one who I believe also had. Was it.
E
Yeah, the guy girl.
A
Elliot Page, Ellen Page, talking about Elon Musk's position on suicidal empathy. And he completely misrepresents it. And ironically, in trying to make Elon Musk sound selfish, makes the hedonistic leftist selfish argument.
D
Well, just because I advocate for gay people doesn't shade me as gay. It makes me realize I just realized, like, I owe so much to those people, to those people of that artistic bent and that kind of philosophy. Like, why wouldn't I protect those people, those, you know, or why wouldn't I stand up, you know, if I stand up for myself, why wouldn't I stand up for you? No matter what your gender or your sexual orientation is, you know, that's human rights. Human rights is, you know, if you stand up for human rights, why is that a right or a left thing? Why aren't people on the right wing concerned about human rights? They're human too. This whole thing that like kind of has come into vogue of like empathy trap, you know, Empathy trap, you know, like, that's what Elon Musk says. Like, empathy is like, don't be fooled by empathy trap.
E
Yes, yes.
D
Stick to your, your agenda and what's best for you. Holy feeling bad for so and so they're on their own thing. Look out for number one. Like, it's like, wait a minute. Empathy is not a trap. Empathy is a superpower.
C
That's right.
D
It's what makes human beings exceptional. Our ability to like, look outside of ourself. We're not an alligator trying to just get the next fish, you know, we're human beings. We can relate to something that's not us that, you know, like, that's a superpower. And it's also the cornerstone of civilization.
A
Okay, could you spot the straw man? And I want to go to the. That's a superpower. Hey, what do we know? Through all fables, even Marvel Films, legends. What do we know about superpowers? Meaning super physiological powers, incredibly powerful tools or abilities. They can be used for good. And how often do we see that person turn into a villain? Ah, so he says, yeah, you know, Elon Musk says he shouldn't because it's right. Just look out for you. You shouldn't care about us, shouldn't care about anybody else. That's the exact opposite of what Elon Musk has said. Let's take the superpower empathy. Empathy, absent moral judgment, will become a super evil. That's the point that Elon Musk and we have made. It's not just do what's best for you, is what Elon Musk says. No, he has said you need to think about and we need to do what is best for society. Because you can't just be empathetic toward everyone. You can't be empathetic toward a rape victim at the same time as the rapist. They've tried it in the uk. It doesn't work. You can't be empathetic to the American worker, the American taxpayer, as well as illegal aliens who take far more than they contribute. It doesn't work. The key word from Elon Musk, and this is why they hide out in podcasts where they can strawman. Because what he's saying is, am I ever. It makes me feel good. It makes me feel good to stand up for anyone, no matter what. Well, the reason it falls apart is because there's no moral backbone to it. And the key word from Elon Musk, let's go to his quote, is civilizational suicidal empathy. Where he was talking about, as a civilization, if we empathize with and we prioritize the wrong thing, we will cease to be the nation that is even capable of the luxury of empathy.
B
Suicidal empathy. Like, if there's, like, there's so much empathy that you actually suicide yourself. Yeah. So that we've got civilizational suicidal empathy going on. And it's like, I believe in empathy. Like, I think you should care about other people, but you need to have empathy for civilization as a whole and not commit to a civilizational suicide. The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy. The empathy exploit. They're exploiting a bug in Western civilization, which is the empathy response. So, and I think empathy is good, but you need to think it through and not just be programmed like a robot.
A
That's why John C. Reilly goes on that show and will never show up to actually argue his case. Because imagine if he said, you know, just do what's good for you. That's what Elon Musk. And he said, no, no, I'm not saying that. I'm saying civilizational suicidal empathy is a problem where we actually have to craft our society as to what's best for civilization. We need to look beyond ourselves and think of our duties and what's best for society as a whole. John C. Reilly is just. But empathy feels good, so I'll do it regardless of anything. Doesn't have any qualifiers.
B
Yeah.
C
He also gets to define empathy himself because he says in the clip he started with a premise that's a false premise saying that why doesn't the right care about empathy?
A
Yeah. Care about empathy.
C
Well, who said they don't? Who said the right's not empathetic? They're just not empathetic to the same people that you are or to the same degree.
A
That's all right. We're more empathetic in most cases to different people.
C
Like my neighbor.
A
Right.
E
Yeah, well, and by the way, Christianity talks about protecting not the civilization in this case, but the church.
D
Right.
E
So there's kind of like a church discipline thing. If you have something wrong, if there's a problem, you go to your friend. If he doesn't listen, you take a couple people. If he still doesn't listen, you take it to the elders. If he still doesn't listen and this person is living in sin, you cast them out of the church to protect the flock. Think it through and make sure that you're not just saying, let's be empathetic to this person and let him destroy the church.
A
Right.
E
It's the same thing you can do for civilizations, for countries, whatever it is.
A
Also, here's something too. When we talk about society being eroded by, for example, Third Worlders, you cannot be empathetic to Third World illegal aliens while being empathetic to the people who have created and sustain the society, the United States, that makes it desirable. Let me ask you this genuine question, right? Because you'll hear this argument, and I know we've all felt it. Where you see people coming here in caravans or you see people fleeing these countries, you go, well, I can't blame them for seeking a better life. Like, I want to help these people. How often do you think people in India right now or in Guatemala are going, hey, man, how can we help the average American right now? He's going through a tough time. How often do you think that conversation comes up?
C
A lot less than, how can I rip one off over the phone?
A
Right.
C
Yeah, they don't have any empathy for us. You're asking me to be empathetic to people who are not empathetic back.
A
Right.
C
They exploit empathy.
A
Or you can be empathetic to the people who actually make this society function. Those people don't care about you. They want to take advantage of what it is that you've built. It is not moral to place them in front of those who have worked and paid taxes and have families in front of those people in line. It's not. It's actually an act of evil. So empathy can be twisted and be used for evil. And the only way or the most effective way that you can do that is just make it about feelings. I feel good empathizing with drag shows. Why not? Why would I? Yeah, Maps. Well, they're not monsters. Well, I feel good. Well, these criminals, they had some tough breaks. They had problems integrating. Right. It's really our society. We haven't done enough. We haven't given these people the tools. Catch and release, no cash bail, soft on crime. And then people have to live in a hell scape. Our civilization is being destroyed because of, I would say blind empathy. I would say empathy absent moral judgment. So here's an example. On Monday in Almeria, Spain, there was an undocumented migrant, this is just another one. Tried to assault and rape a German woman in her camper van. Then he just tried to flee into the ocean and began to drown. So it's like, to me, it's like, well, there you go. It solved itself.
E
Fish need food too.
A
But then five police officers, they risk their lives to rescue him from the ocean. What? Look, it says the man's lack of cooperation and the state of the sea greatly hampered their efforts. But the officers managed to pull him to shore where they stabilized him in the recovery position until he vomited the water he had swallowed and could breathe again.
C
Empathize with the hungry fish.
E
He was almost there, guys.
C
Yeah, I like what Tim said. Why don't you empathize with the hungry fish?
F
Yeah.
C
Or the shark.
E
They like dark meat too.
A
You help clear his airway, shove a halibut in there and let nature take its course.
E
I mean, you start chumming the water if you're the cops, right? Yeah. You're like, hey, guys, guys, food over here.
A
I mean, he's not going to contribute to your society. He just tried to rape someone and thought his getaway was the entire ocean.
E
Might be low iq.
A
Well, I will say we actually have the excuse over there. The police, they don't have body Cams, but they do have live microphones and they were confused as well. I am so confused. I don't even know where he was going. Just out to the ocean with no kayak or something.
C
Out to the sea by himself.
A
Maybe he saw someone else to rape out there.
C
Do you see a sailboat?
A
I don't know, but I could be fleet weeks. He wants to rape all the sailors. I don't know.
C
Maybe he was gonna swim to Greece.
A
We need borders.
C
Yeah.
A
Conclusions.
E
You get there eventually.
A
And what do you have? What do you end up having when you just keep ignoring reality? You can only do it for so long. You can kind of gaslight people for a little bit and they go like, ah, let's give us a shot. Yeah, Maybe this will be the first time that Islam, Islamic migrants will. This will be the first time that they integrate and we actually live. That coexist is really more of a. It's really more of a wish list than it is, you know, a historical record. But maybe this time we'll get it right until after years, decades. People go, ah, this is one where history repeats itself. And then you have citizens like we just saw in Scotland who. They feel the need to take the law into their own hands. And then they'll. They'll. They'll be blamed. So a seagull. God breaking our pits. Enough is enough. I have heard enough. Now. No one was hurt. There were no life threatening injuries. But I will say you're either going. You either need to deal with the cancer that is Islamic crime. Not just crime, that's the primary one, but Islamic migrants. Migrants in general. Being a drain on the system, harming those who have been native to that land and have been sustaining it, have been building it for centuries. You either need to cut that cancer out, send these people back to their own lands that they've cultivated and created, or you are going to get more vigilantes. You are going to get people taking it into their own hands. There is no door number three. We have Toolmaine. Do we have a. We have a power surge or something going on?
E
I don't know
A
who would do this. Why is that the guy who's been doing this? It was me, the phantom of the. The studio. And the chaos is delicious. You are the most mildly annoying phantom of any studio I've been in. Applejack. You are unbelievably. And my plan is unfolding flawlessly. Hey, by the way, do you still have the. Do you still have the overstock on the. The foundation? Creatine up There. Because that's where we left it. This? Yeah. Yeah. Can you toss it down? Should I be taking this? Yeah. Creative. It's, like, the most proven supplement ever. It's actually, like, for muscle recovery, cognitive health. You absolutely should. I can't really see what the lights. Phantom in the studio doesn't trust influencers. You don't have to go to foundationdaily.com and you'll actually see all of the published research right there on the website. We make it publicly available, just like the show. I'm gonna go do the show now. That's a great deal. Thanks, Steven. Okay. Appreciate it. Can we seal that up or something?
E
It's been a while since it's just a door that needs to be locked. It's not hard.
C
All right.
A
Anything you want to add to the Spaniards,
E
to the suicidal empathy, to going out of the ocean with five officers that are fully dressed in their uniforms to save a guy who was already drowning anyway after he tried to rape somebody? That story.
A
It's not just me just let him die, right?
C
Absolutely. It's not let him die. It's. Well, I can't go into the ocean. No.
A
There are sharks in there.
B
Yeah.
C
I'm wearing boots, pants. I got a Taser. It's gonna be all ruined by the water.
A
Yeah, I read the surf report. It said a high probability of rapists.
C
Yeah, salt water's bad for handcuffs. Everybody knows that corrodes them.
E
Yeah, well, no, listen, I watch Point Break. You just stand there on the beach, and if he comes back, you arrest him. If he doesn't, mission over.
A
And at some point, you point your gun in the sky and go,
E
well, that too.
A
And you get two meatball sandwiches.
E
Yeah, but I mean, poignant at the end. Yeah, I got to surface wave.
A
I get it.
C
Yeah, you start taking bets, actually.
A
Right.
C
How long is he gonna last out there?
A
Speaking of bets, I drown.
E
Crap.
A
How well do you think this film that we're about to review is going to do?
C
Well, I'll put it this way. I spent $7 to watch it and I was told to be reimbursed. My $7. No, I'd like 20.
A
Okay.
E
Because that's me.
A
I'm gonna be the chief reimburser. You know what? I've heard your case. I'll allow it. So I will say it's a film right now gaining a lot of traction. Citizen Vigilante, starring. Yes, Armie Hammer. And by the way, I think they did that guy dirty, even if he's weird and he has some bizarre Fetish. This whole thing was a hitchhiker. I have zero interest in people's private texts, their individual proclivities. Unless someone is charged, it's a crime. I just. My default is I don't believe it. So I'm glad that he's back working this film. There's a lot of controversy surrounding it. I will say objectively it's a bad film, but
E
that's not the controversy.
A
But there's a reason for it. It's. It's the first film of its kind that frankly deals with head on migrant crime, the waves they're in and how people are reaching a boiling point. So of course it's been banned in places like Germany and Hollywood has to pan it. They would have praised a film of similar quality with different messaging. Before we get to this, by the way, we're gonna actually have to go here. I didn't realize. Yeah, it's. Oh my gosh, it's noon late here. Yeah, it's 1101 Central, noon 01. So if you are not yet a Rumble Premium member, click that button right there. That's what keeps us going. That's what keeps the doors open. Or if you take Creatine, go to foundationdaily.com by the way, it's the best creatine at the best price out there in the market. And if you don't take creatine, then whatever, there's no helping you. Otherwise you're gonna watch Haley for free. Let's go back to this. I have been calling this for a very long time.
E
Yes you have.
A
Close to a decade. I've said if you don't deal with this meaning elected representatives, governments, you are going to get more vigilantes. You are going to get another wave of Dirty Harry and Death Wish. And here we are.
D
Come, let Zoltar tell you more.
A
I translate the next pitchfork.
C
We're gonna win the game, I guarantee.
A
You had the soft on crime era and then you had these heroes in film like Dirty Harry, like Charles Bronson, right? Death Wish where the vigilante genre was something that was cathartic for Americans because they felt helpless. Early 70s, late 60s, you saw the rise of the anti hero vigilante movies like Dirty Harry and movies like Death Wish. Americans were saying we're seeing skyrocketing viol violent crime. We're having politicians who are soft on crime. We're being told that the police are corrupt and so everything has to be letter of the law. Criminals have rights and Americans wanted strong leadership. And instead of peace based on a lie. They wanted justice. We did an entire segment on Dirty Harry and on Death Wish and said, look, this is the exact petri dish for those anti heroes that came out in the late 60s and the early 70s. You can only lie to people for so long and tell them that they are not experiencing violence until they react to defend themselves and people around them. This is also again fostered by the media. And this happened Dirty Harry, Death Wish. There was this vigilante resurgence that happened in the 70s and 80s because of the crime wave of the 60s and 70s and people get tired of it and the cycle repeats itself. This is how you end up with Dirty Harry. This is how you end up with Death Wish and Charles Bronson. They did do this in the 60s and then there was a rejection of that. And you saw the antihero with someone taking the law into their own hands and everyone cheered them on. And that's what you're going to see now.

Episode: Montreal Shooting Insanity: Marxist Incels & Female Cops
Host: Steven Crowder
Date: June 23, 2026
This episode tackles several hot-button news items and social topics. Steven Crowder, joined by his regular co-hosts, discusses the recent mass shooting in Montreal, issues surrounding the effectiveness of female police officers, the motivations behind mass shootings (with a focus on Marxist and incel ideologies), and cultural debates ranging from race relations to empathy in Western civilization. The show’s tone is politically incorrect, direct, and frequently comedic, while also critiquing leftist narratives and media coverage.
Crowder, on US vs. Global Mass Shootings
“The United States is not a unique place… There are mass shootings in other countries and we are not at the top of any of these lists.” ([13:51])
On Female Policing
“Their only tool is going to be a mechanical advantage. They are a female officer, don’t care how tough she is, she is never ever going to subdue a male, let alone 1 on PCP who’s slightly above average in size.” ([15:34])
On Nihilism and Marxism
“There’s nothing you can do. … There’s nothing you can do. It must be some cabal of people. It’s the government. There’s nothing you can do. You need a bailout, you need some kind of a grant.” ([27:53])
On Self-Improvement
“The only way that a young man develops self-confidence or self-esteem is getting really good at something.” ([37:39])
Elon Musk on empathy:
"You need to have empathy for civilization as a whole and not commit to a civilizational suicide..." ([49:14])
Crowder on Vigilantism:
“You can only lie to people for so long and tell them that they are not experiencing violence until they react to defend themselves and people around them.” ([61:14])
Crowder’s episode centers on the real-world dangers of “pretending” about societal realities—be it in law enforcement gender roles, the motivations behind violence, or the consequences of unchecked empathy and immigration. It blends news analysis, social critique, and cultural commentary with direct, controversial humor. For Crowder and his team, solutions lie in personal and civic responsibility, the reclamation of traditional gender roles (especially in fields of violence and protection), and a rejection of nihilistic victimhood.
For listeners new to the show:
Expect passionate opinions, dark humor, and pointed criticism of left-wing narratives, all framed in a fast-moving, banter-heavy discussion panel. The episode dives into sociology, crime, and masculinity, while consistently returning to the theme of personal and societal accountability.
