Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Pride in American Privilege and Freedoms

Timestamp: 01:48–05:40

• Hayley's Monologue: Hayley opens by expressing deep American pride, framing the US as “the greatest country in the history of the world" and highlighting privileges often unmentioned by the left.
• Comparative Privilege: She contrasts American freedoms (air conditioning, medical quality, freedom of speech, LGBTQ+ rights, women's rights) with hardships or oppression in other countries, stating:

  "We are so rich, we are so lucky. We are so blessed. We are so privileged." (03:45, Hayley)

• Critique of Liberal Narratives: Hayley argues that the left’s fixation on “privilege” ignores the universal privilege of being American.
• Historical Legacy: She credits the founding freedoms to "brilliant young men" and the ongoing sacrifices of American service members.

2. Who Really Owns America's 250th Birthday? (TikTok Reactions)

Timestamp: 05:41–08:02

• Viral Clip: A TikTok debate argues the 250th birthday is for the 13 original colonies; other states are just "LARPing."
• Banters and Laughs:

  "I love how he puts big 13 on the screen as if it's like a college football conference." (06:50, Hayley)

• Regional Pride: Hayley, a New York native, jokes about claiming authenticity to the celebration, while co-hosts discuss the nation’s relatively young age and the historic process of acquiring territory.

3. The Founders: Young, Rowdy, and Very Much Like Gen Z?

Timestamp: 08:14–12:19

• History Segment: Jim Rome provides a historical tidbit:

  "Alexander Hamilton was 21 in the summer of '76. Thomas Jefferson 33. George Washington was 44..." (08:14, Jim Rome)

• Party Culture Then & Now: Comparison between the Founders' legendary drinking ("$15k bar tabs for 55 people") and the “boring,” sober Gen Z—a playful takedown of modern youth culture:

  “Kids now, Gen Z, they are staying in on Friday nights because they have Pilates in the morning. I feel like kids now…they're boring.” (10:50, Hayley)

4. 4th of July Rituals, Food…and Liberal Virtue Signaling

Timestamp: 12:49–16:42

• Heartfelt Clip: A woman calls for unity and simple joys:

  “I want you all...to get yourself a hot dog... Try to bond with your neighbor...Absorb the neighborhood vibes. Amen to that." (13:10, Video Clip)

• Hayley’s Take: She lovingly riffs on classic American BBQ culture, declaring:

  "Nothing hits harder than a Fourth of July hot dog. Like a dad grilled dog... So good by someone’s dad." (14:03, Hayley)

• Liberal Virtue Signaling:
  • Highlighting how some on the left attempt to “reclaim” the flag with buzzwords ("Fund public schools," "Protect trans kids," "No human is illegal"). Hayley sarcastically translates:

    "Just know that when I fly this flag, it's not because I'm racist. It's because I'm—that’s what she wants people to know. My American flag. Don't worry, I'm not racist. I am stupid. I am stupid. My brain cells...rocks in there." (15:31, Hayley)

  • Discusses over-the-top anti-Trump cakes and performative protest at holiday parties.

5. Counter-Narratives: America as ‘Stolen Land’ & Hayley’s Rebuke

Timestamp: 17:12–18:28

• TikTok Critique: A viral clip claims July 4 marks "America stealing this nation...killing and raping those native people..."
• Hayley’s Response:

  “Not stolen land. It was settled, purchased, conquered. And that's the way it's happened all over the world since the dawn of time. Not just the United States.” (18:12, Hayley)

• Comparisons with UK Culture: Spirited exchange about British attitudes toward their own colonial past vs. American self-flagellation.

6. America Through European Eyes

Timestamp: 19:01–20:43

• Delight in American Culture: European tourists, especially those in Texas, marvel at American patriotism:

  “I want an unforgettable July 4th American experience...I need American makeup. I need American clothes. Anything that says USA...” (19:20, Video Clip)

• Hayley’s Reflection:

  “Boats, usa. Fireworks, hot dogs. Freedom. Freedom... So much freedom. They can't even handle it.” (20:29, Hayley)

• Personal Traditions: Memories of childhood fireworks, family BBQs, and reminders to “live in the moment” instead of recording everything.

7. Bald Eagles, National Symbols, and Wholesome Content

Timestamp: 22:00–25:30

• Patriotic Animal Content: Hayley obsesses over TikToks of bald eagles—feeding videos, fetch with dogs, and a favorite:

  “Kids singing the national anthem to our bird. I mean, brings a tear to my eye.” (23:59, Hayley)

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On American Privilege:

  "Even if you're living paycheck to paycheck, which most Americans are, we are so rich, we are so lucky." (03:33, Hayley)

• On Virtue Signaling American Pride:

  "Just bring the cake with the blueberries and the strawberries on it. Like, red, white, and blue is for all of us. The flag is for all of us. The country's for all of us. You don't have to like the president. But just go to the barbecue without virtue signaling." (16:42, Hayley)

Interactive Games & Panel Banter

“Most Woke, Least Woke” Dinner Party Game

Timestamp: 25:30–37:28

Concept: Each participant reveals their “most woke” (left-leaning) and “least woke” (most conservative) opinions.

Highlights & Opinions:

• Hayley’s Most Woke: Believe in caring for the environment (anti-littering, not extreme climate alarmism).
• Dan: Support for cognitive/age tests for elected office; skepticism about the death penalty:

  “I am against death penalty…But yeah, I don't know if I trust government to have this sort of power.” (29:08, Dan)

• Ghee: Legalize marijuana everywhere (“states' rights” debate); most conservative take: immediate deportation for illegal immigrants, no birthright citizenship.

  "No questions. Out bounced... No birthright citizenship. Just bounce." (34:44, Ghee)

• Justin: "Do anything you want in your own house, as long as it doesn't affect other people" (libertarian slant); ready to “secede tomorrow.”
• Panel Consensus: Bouncing between joking, thoughtfulness, and classic conservative takes (“bring back country bans”), often laced with Hayley’s direct, sometimes abrasive tone.

[Haley Carnia]

Welcome into the show. This is Scrolling with Haley. I'm Haley Carnia and this is a programming alert. Today is my last show of the week. There will be no show tomorrow because we're celebrating July 4th. That is the company holiday for the. I mean ahead of the fourth. So no show tomorrow. You'll see me back here on Monday. And because this is my last show before Independence Day, I have America themed Super scroll for you. Plus get your game faces on because we're playing games and I'll be answering some questions at the end. This is a reminder to subscribe to this show if you haven't already.

All I ask is that you tell a friend and you support our sponsors like Helix. Recently I've noticed how much my mattress affects everything. Energy levels, mood, even how I show up during the day. That's what finally pushed me to upgrade to Helix. I switched to the midnight luxe mattress. Honestly, the difference has been incredible. I sleep like a rock. I took their sleep quiz. It matched me to a mattress tailored to how I actually sleep and it has been a total game changer. I also added the cooling upgrade which has made a huge difference. Since we live in South Florida, I'm not waking up overheated or constantly flipping my pillow anymore. The whole experience was super simple. Free shipping showed up right at my door. Setup was very easy, only took a few minutes. Plus there is a 120 night sleep trial and a limited time lifetime warranty. So it really feels like a no brainer. To try. Go to helix sleep.com/hayley that's h a y l e y for 20% off site wide, 25% off luxe mattresses and 30% off elite mattresses. Again, that is helix sleep.com/hAYLEY h a y l e y 20% off site y 25% off luxe mattresses. That's one I've got.

[Unknown Male Speaker]

And.

[Haley Carnia]

And 30% off elite mattresses. Helix sleep.com Haley and without further ado, put your phones on. Do not disturb. The show starts now. So today's show is a lot of fun. But before we get into all that, I want to talk about how proud I am to be American. It is the 250th birthday of the greatest country in the history of the world and I feel so proud and privileged to be an American. The left talks a lot about privilege, right? White privilege, male privilege, straight privilege, skinny privilege, pretty privilege. They talk about all these advantages that other people have, whether it's a leg up socioeconomically or because of education or what have you. And they never talk about the privilege that it is to live in the United States of America because to acknowledge that privilege undermines and invalidates all of their excuses. Because for every straight, white, male, privileged rich person in this country, there's an even better underdog story. The best American dream stories are about people who had a dollar to their name, a bus ticket, a dream, and they built something wonderful and successful because this country offered them the opportunity to do so. And, and maybe the thing they built was a happy, healthy family, maybe it was a billion dollar company. Either way, they are both so rich. Even if you're living paycheck to paycheck, which most Americans are, we are so rich, we are so lucky. We are so blessed. We are so privileged. We talk about all this on the show all the time, right? All these Europeans coming over to the States for the World cup and they're just enamored with everything that we take for granted. In France right now, people are dying because they don't have aircon, as they like to call it. In the United States, that is unheard of. In Afghanistan, women actually lack basic human rights. They can't go to college, they can't travel alone, run for political office, or show their skin. In the US we have liberal women ignorantly claiming that they're oppressed because they can't kill their offspring. And in countries with socialized medicine, people bribe their doctors for health care or they die waiting for it on the government's dime and timeline. And in the US we have advanced research, new technology, high quality care and options. In the Middle east, gays are killed for their sexuality. In the United States, they have parades and a whole month dedicated to them. In the uk, people are jailed for jokes they write on social media. In the US we are free. We have the freedom of speech, including the freedom to criticize the government and hold politicians accountable. We have the freedom to live out our own individual American dreams, whatever that may be, however we see fit. We have the freedom of religion. We have the right to vote and make our voices heard. We have the right to not be taxed without representation. The reason this country was founded and all of these freedoms and ideals were established by brilliant young men who knew this country was worth fighting for. And ever since then, brave men and women have put their lives on the line to continue that Fight to protect our citizens here at home and abroad. We are the shining city on a hill. We are the envy of the world for 250 years and beyond. We are and will be the greatest country on the face of the earth. You have the right to disagree with me and I have the right to call you a retard. That's what it's all about. So in honor of America's 250th birthday, I. I have a America themed super scroll for you. So let's get into it. All right, so we all know that it's the 250th, right? But people on TikTok are making a good point. It's really not for everyone. It's really only for the 13th colonies, right?

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Watch.

[Unknown Male Speaker]

Hey, man, if you not a part of the original 13. I've been hearing people talk about 250. 250. Cool. If you're not on the east coast. Hey, buddy. If you're not a part of the original 13, what are you celebrating? 250. 250 of what? No, no, no, no, no. If you in California, if you. If you. If you in Nevada, New Mexico. I don't want to. You're celebrating. You're LARPing. Isn't that what the kids say? You're LARPing. You're pretending. No, no. You're not celebrating 250. We're celebrating 250. The 13 are celebrating. Two hundred and fifty. Yeah. East Coast. If you're on the west coast, if you in the mid. No, no, no. We only hear nothing about that. Nothing about that. If you're.

[Justin]

If.

[Unknown Male Speaker]

If you're. If you're aligned with Washington D.C. if you in the. If you on the east coast, if you can look and see the Atlantic outside your window. Happy. 250. If you're anyone else, if you're anywhere else, if you're on the west coast. Shut up. You're not invited. You're not part of the party. It's 250. It's big two five. Big 250. East coast.

[Haley Carnia]

I love how he puts big 13 on the screen as if it's like a college football conference.

[Ghee]

I was thinking the same thing. I was like, we need the Big 13 Conference. Big 13 Conference.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah. That'd be sick. Honestly, I love that. But it is funny to think about the California liberals. Not that I think that they're celebrating this anyway, and we'll get into that in the show today. But yeah, it's not for them. It's for I feel like, okay, as someone who grew up in New York, do I get to claim this 2:50 because I'm a New Yorker or is, is it because I moved to Tennessee and now I live in Florida that I can't celebrate 2:50?

[Ghee]

I think it's for everyone. But those, those top ones, of course it's a little bit, it's a little bit more special.

[Haley Carnia]

Of course it's for everyone. Yeah, so it's a little more special. I feel like, um, I feel like it means something more because I'm from New York, so I'm one of the, I'm one of the big, big one, three.

[Ghee]

It always cracks me up that how one, how young the country is. And two, we just like bought states. Of course, to think about that now, I mean, I guess they've made jokes about buying Greenland, but the idea of buying a state in this century feels crazy.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, we, this is how it happens. You purchase land. We're going to get into it. There's videos about this as well. We'll could talk about it, but let's celebrate like it's 1776, shall we?

[Jim Rome]

If you think the founding fathers were a bunch of old guys, you're wrong. Alexander Hamilton was 21 in the summer of 76. Thomas Jefferson 33. George Washington was 44, but that's a few months younger than Chris Evans, aka Captain America is right now. And if you want to party like a founder, just come to France's tavern in New York City. The guy who runs the place, Eddie Travers, says the Sons of Liberty drank, argued and celebrated right here. And Washington was here for 13 toasts the day British troops finally evacuated the city. The room where it happened, this is it. And by, by it, I mean a lot of drinking.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes, yes. We've all seen the bar tab.

[Jim Rome]

He's not kidding. One tab from a different bar, same era, was the equivalent of $15,000 in today's money. More than 120 bottles of wine on top of whiskey and beer for just 55 people. With Washington out on a Friday night, these were celebrations of freedom, but also survival. And you could feel, I think it makes the history more tangible. You can touch it.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, yeah, 100%.

[Jim Rome]

We feel it every day.

[Haley Carnia]

You paint yourself just to, just to know what, like the conversations though, if you can imagine what had gone on here, like you know what they were talking about.

[Dan]

Like they were talking about what America is today.

[Jim Rome]

So raise a glass this 4th of July and toast George Washington and America, knowing that George Washington.

[Haley Carnia]

All right, everyone, get your Drinks out. First of all, I did go to Dunkin Donuts. Hold on.

[Ghee]

Stir your gross coagulated coffee to stir it.

[Haley Carnia]

Hold on. Before I show it on camera. But I did go to Dunkin Donuts yesterday and I got my America 250American Eagle. What would you call this?

[Ghee]

A cup chalice.

[Haley Carnia]

I just spilled it on my white dress. So that's great.

[Ghee]

America.

[Haley Carnia]

And I did it for America. But yeah. So let's talk about drinking and the, and the fourth. I feel like we don't party as hard as we should anymore. I don't think that, I don't think that we're running up $15,000 bar tabs like they did usually.

[Ghee]

You usually got to win a, a sports title or be a major, an NFL player that just sold or went public. Yeah, I've been. Have you ever been a part of a party that ran up a crazy tab like, like on a corporate event or something like that?

[Haley Carnia]

Well, maybe, but I didn't see the bill so it wasn't my problem.

[Ghee]

No, no, no. Like some of these smaller companies are like, yeah, we got a booth down at 11 in Miami and they're running up these crazy. That's the only way I can comprehend going that hard.

[Haley Carnia]

Kids these days don't drink as much as at least I did growing up and in college and things like that. I feel like kids now, Gen Z, they are staying in on Friday nights because they have Pilates in the morning. They're drinking their Matcha, their smoothies. It's not that the Gen Z culture, drinking culture is, is lackluster I would say. And just, just to think about, these founding fathers were basically the age of Gen Z right now and they're running up $50,000 bar tabs. That is unheard of I think for Gen Z today. They don't party like they don't, they don't go to the club, they don't dance, they don't do anything. They're boring.

[Ghee]

Yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

Kids, they're missing out.

[Ghee]

Run up a $50,000.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah. I mean, what the heck.

[Ghee]

I mean that is a reason to celebrate though. I mean you, you liberated a whole country that, that then you can fight

[Haley Carnia]

over who puts their John Hancock on the, on the $15,000 bar tab. But I've been to Francis Tavern, that's the bar that they were talking about and doing this interview in the, in that piece and it's so cool. I mean it is just so cool to sit and, and the bar where you know that our founding fathers were also sitting in a Bar and having drinks. It's very cool. It's just very cool to be a part of. You feel like you're a part of history. And I will say they have an amazing, amazing watermelon margarita.

[Ghee]

That was my question. I was going to say, what did you drink there? I'm sure. Could you picture George Washington drinking a watermelon margarita? Watermelon margarita with.

[Haley Carnia]

No, I don't think that the watermelon margarita is, is the historic drink that they were drinking back in the day. Probably some beer and whiskey or something like that. But yeah, I, they do have a very, very great. I think it's seasonal, so I don't know, I don't quote me on this. I don't want you to show up to France's tavern and demand the watermelon margarita. But they did have it when I went. I think it was seasonal. But so good. I mean, absolutely so good. And I, I just love the history. So anyway, this next video, this is this woman's fourth of July wish. This is her wish for everyone.

[Ghee]

Watch.

[Haley Carnia]

I wanna hope I have a wish that I want for everyone. I want you all, no matter if you're full on celebrating the fourth, to get yourself a hot dog. I want everyone to, despite everything, despite what we're feeling right now, could take a deep breath, get yourself a hot dog, eat it and. Try to remember we have each other. Try to bond with your neighbor. Maybe if someone's having a grill, maybe come over and ask if you can have hot dog. And maybe have a sit down, you know, ask if you can have hot dog. Absorb the neighborhood vibes. Amen to that.

[Ghee]

Amen.

[Haley Carnia]

There's no amen to that. No notes. This makes you want a hot dog real bad. I'm not gonna lie. I really do want a hot dog. I want to go to my neighbor's house and ask to have hot dog.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

And.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes. And, and get together and, and good vibes.

[Ghee]

I mean, of course, nothing hits harder than a Fourth of July hot dog. Like a dad grilled dog.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes.

[Ghee]

Like not cooked correctly, little charred, little.

[Haley Carnia]

Much better, might I say, than a Costco hot dog. And I liked the Costco hot dog. But there is nothing better than a grilled hot dog. So good by someone's dad.

[Ghee]

Yeah. I personally, any other occasion, steamed hot dog. But 4th of July mess that sucker up.

[Haley Carnia]

So good. Just so good. So this is how normal people are celebrating the fourth of July, right? They're they're getting their hot dogs, but liberals are celebrating by virtue, signaling, of course, like this Woman, just know that when you see my American flag flying this week, it stands for equality. Science is real. Abortion is health care, Fund public schools, Protect trans kids. Separation of church and state, Equality, Liberty. Liberty and justice for all. So I can get behind a few things on here. I can get behind liberty and justice for all. Separation of church and state, sure. What I can't get behind is, oh, she's also got. No, human is illegal. Like, what are the. Just all the liberal buzzwords, right? And she wants everyone to know, hey, this American flag in front of my house. Just. Just know that when I fly this flag, it's not because I'm racist. It's because I'm. That's what she wants. That's what she wants people to know. My American flag. Don't worry, I'm not racist. I am stupid. I am stupid. My brain cells. I shake my head. There are rocks in there.

[Justin]

So does the flag, like, represent the whole world or are there borders somewhere that she draws?

[Haley Carnia]

No borders and no humans are illegal. This is why they're the flag.

[Justin]

But where. But

[Haley Carnia]

it doesn't make sense.

[Ghee]

But what.

[Haley Carnia]

But, yeah, you don't try to make sense of it. Okay? You just point and laugh. And here is some more virtue signaling. Watch. POV. You asked me to bring dessert to the 4th of July party, and it is a cake that says fuck Donald Trump.

[Ghee]

You ever. You ever seen Steve Aoki?

[Haley Carnia]

Yes.

[Ghee]

Yeah, that's what I would do if somebody brought that cake to my cookout.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, I don't think this is necessary. I think you can just bring something with stars and stripes on it and call it a day. It's almost like they have to let people know I'm celebrating. I'm going to a barbecue. But I. But I hate it here. You know, she.

[Ghee]

She thought she really crushed it, too. You could see she. She crossed out yellow and put orange like she. And it looks like she misspelled orange,

[Haley Carnia]

which is cool, of course. I mean, would we expect anything less? Fuck Donald Trump. Orange. Oh, no, it's just rubbed off. The ease. Rubbed off. She did spell it.

[Ghee]

Her hands were sweaty. She's a little nervous to show her friends.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes. She was like, this is I. The whole barbecue is riding on this. So I have to bring the. The virtue signaling dessert. So ridiculous. Just bring the cake with the blueberries and the strawberries on it. Like, what the heck? Like, red, white, and blue is for all of us. The flag is for all of us. The country's for all of us. You don't have to, like, the president. But just go to the barbecue without virtue signaling.

[Ghee]

Save wave. Same wavelength. I was just about to say get

[Haley Carnia]

your freaking hot dog and shut up.

[Ghee]

Pizza. Whatever that.

[Haley Carnia]

Eat your hot dog. Eat your hot dog and shut up. And the left, they, of course, are grieving right now. Watch. Oh, and just so we're abundantly clear, July 4th is not the 250th anniversary of America becoming an independent country. July 4th is the 250th anniversary of America stealing this nation, stealing this land from native people, while simultaneously spreading disease to those native people, killing and raping those native people to be able to call America their home. I love you. And would she be here? And would she have an Apple iPhone to record this TikTok on if none of that happened? I don't know. I don't think so. I don't think so. And here's a reality check.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Watch.

[Haley Carnia]

Not stolen land. It was settled, purchased, conquered. And that's the way it's happened all over the world since the dawn of time. Not just. Not just the United States of America. Literally every country ever.

[Ghee]

It is insane.

[Haley Carnia]

And are people in. Are people in the UK like this, too? Are there people in England that are mad at their government for imperialism? There must be, because if we have these crazy liberals here, they must be there.

[Ghee]

Well. Well, they're, like, in the midst of being conquered, so I think they're, like, blind to what's going on. They're just like, we're having a great time.

[Haley Carnia]

They're sweating with their no ec. They have their bigger fish to fry. They're not thinking about anything. Yeah, they're dying over there, which is sad. But the Europeans really have no idea what's happening. But they do love it. Watch this.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

America's birthday is coming up. July the fourth marks 250 years of something. I don't know, but I think it's gonna be a massive celebration. I have my USA top. This is super cute. I love it. I want everything American. American flag. I need American makeup. I need American clothes. Anything that says USA or Texas, I need to be wearing it. I'm ready to get in the spirit, although I have no idea what to do, where to go. Please give me all the recommendations. I'm in Texas, but I can go to any other state or if it's going to be a good time here in Texas, then let me know where to go. I kind of want to be out on the water. I feel like there's going to be fireworks and a whole display. That'd be really cute to be on the water, but where are the best lakes? And I'm going to need a boat. Can you rent one? And I've seen that when loads of boats get together, they tie themselves up together. It's kind of like tailgating, but for boats. That's so cool. I want an unforgettable July 4th American experience. So please let me know your top.

[Haley Carnia]

Someone's got to invite this girl on their boat to tie up the boats. Someone's got to get this girl a drink on a boat. I hope that she enjoys her 4th of July here in the States. This is what. This is along the lines of what we've seen with a lot of these Europeans that come over here for the World Cup. They're just enjoying American culture. They're immersed in American culture and they're loving it. And honestly, what's not to love, right? Boats, usa. Fireworks, hot dogs. Freedom. Freedom.

[Ghee]

So much freedom.

[Haley Carnia]

So much freedom. So much freedom. They can't even handle it. She doesn't even know how she wants to celebrate. She doesn't. Where do I go? What do I do? Who do I see? Where do I go to the fireworks? How do I get on a boat? I mean, she's thinking about it. She's. She's definitely in the right. She's. She's got the right mindset for sure.

[Ghee]

Do you have a Fourth of July that stands out the most in your head that you've had?

[Haley Carnia]

I think just no, not like a specific 4th of July, but I feel like all of my 4th of July's are fun. They. There's fireworks. There's. Especially the ones in my childhood, just being with friends, family, friends again, hot dogs, fireworks. Can't beat it. Do you have one that stands out?

[Ghee]

A couple years ago, my wife and I went up to Sagatuck up in Michigan, and we were, like, out on the lake and people shot fireworks out on. That's cool, the Great Lake. And we were at, like a cool little resort. It was nice. It was very American.

[Haley Carnia]

Nashville has one of the best firework shows in the country. It's massive.

[Ghee]

Oh, yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

They spend a bajillion dollars on it, and it's worth every penny. And my apartment in Nashville, the balcony had a view of the fireworks show. So I had some friends over and we watched it from the comfort of my balcony instead of in all the crowds on Broadway and stuff. But it is such an incredible show. This is also a reminder that if you are running low on space on your phone this weekend, you don't need to film the fireworks. You're never going to go back and watch that video.

[Ghee]

How else am I going to know you were there with a crumbly? Because the. The ISO never quite makes it look as good. It's just, like, crumbling.

[Haley Carnia]

No, never. Just live in the moment, enjoy. And I'm saying this as someone who's on my phone constantly, live in the moment. Enjoy the fireworks show. You're never going to scroll back and watch the show ever again. So just words of the wise. So the last videos that I have here are all about the American eagle, right? The bald eagle. And they are just so cool. So I just have a few videos for you, and then we're going to get into games. But let's get into this first one. This is a bald eagle in the rain. This is one of the most majestic things I've ever seen in my life. I was scrolling yesterday on TikTok, just bald eagle, bald eagle, bald eagle, bald eagle. I couldn't get enough content, so I'm sharing it with all of you. Look at him. The wingspan is crazy. The talons are crazy. Just seeing the rain come off of him, he's, like, bracing himself in this storm. So badass.

[Ghee]

We picked a good animal.

[Haley Carnia]

It's a badass bird. Now this one is. This guy is gonna feed this bald eagle. So cool. Look, he's throwing this up to fish. Catches it in his talons. That is so cool. That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. If you get to experience that, this is when you have to have your phone out. Fireworks. Don't need it. This. Yes. Bald eagle, yes. All right. This guy's playing fetch with his dog. But bald eagle has another thing in mind. The dog is chasing this ball. I don't know what the bald eagle thinks it is, but he was probably disappointed when it was like a dog toy. The dog is cooking, too.

[Ghee]

You're kidding.

[Haley Carnia]

The dog was almost there.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

What?

[Justin]

Good thing you didn't grab the dog.

[Haley Carnia]

I know. The eagle just took her ball. The dog is like, what? They're coming back, like, what? And I've played this video on the show before. Kids singing to the bald eagles at the zoo. This is my favorite video. Are still there. Cheers to that. Everyone. I have my coffee that I'm spilling on myself. Not worth it. But that is my favorite video of all time. And I've played it on the show before, but I had to run it back just for the fourth because that is the most wholesome thing I've ever seen. I mean, just, it's American, it's American pie, it's baseball. It's just, it's everything. Little kids singing the national anthem to our. Our bird. I mean, brings a tear to my eye. All right, so let's get into these games. I saw this video on TikTok. This guy said this is the way to shake up the conversation with your friend group. So we're going to try it. Watch. If you really want to get to

[Dan]

know your friends this summer, might I recommend the dinner party game Most Woke, Least woke.

[Haley Carnia]

It's exactly what it sounds like. You go around the room, preferably after

[Dan]

two bottles of wine, certainly before four though. And everybody shares their most woke and their least woke personal take.

[Haley Carnia]

And if you're playing it right, it won't be things like Medicare for all

[Dan]

or we shouldn't have any immigration.

[Haley Carnia]

It'll be niche.

[Dan]

It'll be weird.

[Haley Carnia]

Because for as much as we all like to pretend that we are one of two boxes, one of two choices,

[Dan]

I promise you, beloved child of God, that you are, there's a little communist and a little Ronald Reagan somewhere inside just waiting to get out.

[Haley Carnia]

But again, this is a friends game, not an Internet game. So don't share those down in the comments.

[Dan]

Although if you do play and you hear some really good ones, DM me, I am kind of curious.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so we're going to go through our most woke and least woke takes. You go first.

[Ghee]

Whoa. No. Absolutely not. I don't know if you know a lot about this podcast, but your name is on the top of it.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, so you want me to go first? Fine. I figured I would like, you know, bring up the rear. Okay, fine. My most woke take is. And let me just preface this by saying climate alarmism is stupid, but we do have to take care of our planet and of God's creations. Not all man made things are bad for the environment, but some do have detrimental effects. So that is my most woke take is that we do need to. I'm not a climate alarmist but I do believe that we we've got to like not litter and not ruin the planet.

[Ghee]

Kind of lame that not littering and saving the planet is become stable to woke.

[Haley Carnia]

I know just completely because they've taken it, right? They've taken it and they've taken it to an extreme. That's why it's like you have to preface this by saying, hey, I love my planet but not in a woke way.

[Ghee]

Do you remember in middle school when people would just say, yeah, you know, Florida is going to be in the ocean.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes.

[Ghee]

Gone.

[Haley Carnia]

Florida in the ocean. New Orleans in the ocean. California in the ocean. Like everything's going to be in the ocean. All the coasts are just going to go away.

[Ghee]

We're doing a great job.

[Haley Carnia]

Obama's house is going to be. It'll be saved somehow.

[Dan]

Can I, can I take on my walk tape?

[Haley Carnia]

Okay.

[Ghee]

Gee's woke about it for a bit

[Dan]

and I don't even sure if it's a woke take, but I think there should be some sort of cognitive test. Initially I said it was an age limit for taking federal office.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, right.

[Dan]

But then I thought, you know, Trump is almost same age as Biden was and clearly a lot more cognitively.

[Haley Carnia]

Right.

[Dan]

So I think some sort of like, test to take office, I think would be.

[Haley Carnia]

I feel like that's your least woke take, not your most woke.

[Dan]

Is it?

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, because a liberal would never want that.

[Dan]

No, I've seen a lot of takes from Democrats saying that, you know, age limits on.

[Haley Carnia]

So I guess.

[Ghee]

And all of it, I guess, term

[Haley Carnia]

limits, I think are bipartisan.

[Dan]

Term limits, age limits for candidates.

[Haley Carnia]

No, cognitive limits.

[Dan]

And then. Yeah, then they adapted to take to cognitive.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, I agree with you completely.

[Dan]

But there could be age too, you know, and maybe that's more woke. But it does seem a bit unfair

[Haley Carnia]

sometimes liberals will say that that's a poll tax. Right. Like you can't have this, you know, educational barrier to voting or what have you. But I think that people should have to pass a citizenship test to vote. Like, you can't be a retard and vote. I hate that we have retards that vote. You know, like, you have to at least know how this system works.

[Dan]

Well, some people would say that the voter should be the ones to decide. Right. But yeah. And you know, cognitists also. Is there one that is objectively correct,

[Haley Carnia]

not being a stupid idiot?

[Dan]

Yeah, yeah. They said they can't hear me. If you can. Yeah. If you can bump me up a little bit. My other woke take and this one that I think I disagree with Dan on, is that I am against death penalty.

[Haley Carnia]

I go back and. Not that I go back and forth. I struggle with this issue. And I've been, I've been open with this on the show before where I struggle with like the pro life aspect of it, like, who are we to end someone's life? But then again, you know, this eye for an eye thing, it's like, why would, why should a pedophile keep living on our taxpayer dollars?

[Dan]

It's just the government to do it. You know, like government can't even get your driver's license.

[Ghee]

Right.

[Dan]

And you expect them to handle matters of life and death.

[Ghee]

Yeah.

[Dan]

One sentiment it is ghee. So, yeah, like I think a lot of people do deserve it, like given if I knew 100% that they did commit the crime.

[Haley Carnia]

Right.

[Dan]

But yeah, I don't know if I trust government to have this sort of power. Right. It does seem like they would, they would screw it up.

[Haley Carnia]

And I don't trust that the justice system gets it right all the time. To your point, I think there are probably people who have, I know for a fact that there are people who have gotten away with murder that get away with murder. They're, they're not in jail. And then if they make mistakes that way, certainly there have to be people who are innocent.

[Dan]

Yeah, yeah. No, I agree with you guys, like on the chat saying that some folks just need killing and why do we need to house murders in General? I agree. 100. But you know, government needs to decide that. Right. That they're not infallible and some cases are clear case are cleared, but at the same time some aren't. And you see stuff like people who spent 60 years in jail and then they find out that they never did it.

[Haley Carnia]

Right, right. And then it's like, what if the, what if they were killed? You know? Yeah, I, I get it. It's just, it's a flawed system. And I say this all the time. The justice system is completely flawed and I hate it. And when, whenever I get called to do jury duty, I'm going to tell them that that's how I got out of it in New York. I said, this system is completely flawed. Fl flawed. I think that all of you are frauds. And they didn't want me on their jury. I wonder why.

[Ghee]

You seem a mildly opinionated. I could get why that might just

[Haley Carnia]

mildly turn some people. When I worked at Fox, it was a known thing because nobody ever, there's never a good time to take off from work. When you work in news, there's just, there's no good time. You're always going to miss something. You're always going to be behind. And when we worked at Fox, that was very much a sentiment. Whenever you got called for jury duty, it was like, I can't not work right now. Like, it's just, even if it's for jury duty, we got off for jury duty. But just personally, like, nobody wanted to do it. And if you went in there and said, I work at Fox News, I It's completely impossible for me to be unbiased. They would just dismiss you. So that was a good way to get off. But anyway, my least woke take is to bring back because I guess least woke is my most conservative take. You know, Trump got really mad when he banned countries from traveling. Like, he put the Muslim ban and things like that. I think bring back a lot of country bans and not only bring them back, install more of them to keep us safe. Any country that has like a travel advisory for whatever reason, if it's unrest, viral outbreaks, corruption, war, let's not welcome that into our country. I think we have to start applying for asylum in our home countries, not on our doorstep. And I think you should apply, be vetted and then come because this is how it all, this is how it happens. If to apply for asylum at our doorstep, at the southern border, at or at a checkpoint, it that encourages the caravans to come here, and then they're already mooching off of our system because they're in these, you know, facilities and whatnot. And then, you know, the liberals complain about anyway, so I guess that's my least woke take. What about you? Are you going to.

[Ghee]

Yeah, I've been thinking about it all morning. I've been trying to, like, kind of get my thoughts together. All right, most woke take this isn't even that woke. I say legalize, legalize marijuana. I'm not a stoner, but it's so weird that it's like legal some places and not and people are going to jail.

[Haley Carnia]

States rights.

[Ghee]

See, I agree. Just open it up. I take all that tax money, let everybody be lazy. It's fine.

[Haley Carnia]

I think it's such a farce that people say, oh, well, no one's died from marijuana. There are no bad side effects. We are, we are watching people get like, schizoaffective disorder. It's definitely because of marijuana and other drug use. There's, I don't think that there's a reason for marijuana to be legal.

[Ghee]

I, I, it's my little, it's my woke.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

I know.

[Haley Carnia]

No, I, I, no, no, no.

[Ghee]

I just, yeah, I, I don't know. The fact that it's like you can drive six hours from here and you can legally get it, but then they find any, you go to jail. The discrepancy feels weird to me.

[Haley Carnia]

So you don't like states rights?

[Justin]

You know what, Andrew? I'm going to, I'm going to hop off, bounce off of you. And am I. Despite my initial reaction, I had struggled with this forever. Because I really don't think I have a woke take. So this is probably my most libertarian take at most.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay.

[Justin]

Is do anything you want in your own house, as long as it doesn't affect other people. Drugs specifically. I hate the smell of weed, so I don't want it being done in public. But you can smoke whatever you want in your own house. I don't think should be.

[Haley Carnia]

Well, I live in an apartment and I can tell you that my neighbors smoke weed and it bothers me and they're doing it in their own homes and it's still bothering me.

[Ghee]

That falls under effects you?

[Justin]

Yeah, I think so.

[Ghee]

And in New York, like when I was walking around, the smell of weed was wild.

[Haley Carnia]

It's horrible. I hate it. Get it away from me.

[Ghee]

But nonetheless, that's my woke take.

[Haley Carnia]

No, I get. I. I totally get on board with that. I can, I can get on board with that as well.

[Ghee]

I guess my most Republican take is if you're in the country illegally, immediate bounce.

[Justin]

That's vanilla.

[Haley Carnia]

I know, but that's your most conservative take.

[Ghee]

No questions. Out bounced.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Yeah.

[Ghee]

No birthright citizenship. Just bounce.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Yeah.

[Ghee]

Whole deal.

[Justin]

Andrew likes the law as it's written.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes.

[Ghee]

All right. Sorry, everybody. That I don't have anything cool.

[Haley Carnia]

No, we're, we're in agreement.

[Justin]

I think my most unwelcome take at the moment is I would be ready to secede tomorrow.

[Haley Carnia]

You personally.

[Ghee]

Are you picking on your team there, bud?

[Justin]

Just split them down the middle. Get rid of New York. Get rid of Minnesota. Tim Walls and his child raping cardinals in the middle. No, no, no, no. Ideologically, not geographically.

[Haley Carnia]

I was like, hold on, hold on, hold on.

[Justin]

Tim Walls is pardoning child. I mean, New York is full Muslim country. California can go. Everybody can go. Let's. Let's start again. No civil war. Sign the sign on the dotted line.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah. Just.

[Justin]

And see whose ideology works.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, I agree. I, I mean, I don't want that because I do. I like the fact that there's different opinions.

[Justin]

Yeah. I'm only on board with this. If we get to keep the United States of America, they have to pick a new name.

[Haley Carnia]

Or we could rename to something even cooler.

[Justin]

No, no, because.

[Ghee]

Cooler.

[Justin]

No, because we get the history of the US they don't get it.

[Haley Carnia]

Right. Of course they, they're. They're the ones that like to rewrite history so they name it whatever the hell they want to rename it.

[Ghee]

Can we even.

[Haley Carnia]

Because you talked about New York being like insanely woke, you know, mamdani wants to close prisons. So he just did.

[Justin]

He closed prisons. And the next day they have literal Catwoman on top of the Empire State Building. It's Gotham City.

[Haley Carnia]

Listen.

[Justin]

It's actually Gotham City.

[Haley Carnia]

Listen to this. Mayor Mamdani is closing Rikers Island. He wants to move all of those prisoners to different jails and different boroughs. Right. And guess what they want to do with Rikers Island.

[Ghee]

Please say Six Flags. Please say Six Flags. Please says Six Flags.

[Haley Carnia]

They're using it for renewable energy. It's like a climate thing. Oh, gosh, can it get worse?

[Ghee]

I mean, put. Move Madison Square Garden.

[Haley Carnia]

Put a Spirit Halloween in there. Put a Dave and Busters in there.

[Ghee]

I'd settle.

[Haley Carnia]

Do something.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

Also, Mamdani just told everyone to put their ACs at 78 degrees. 78.

[Ghee]

You know, sweaty. I would be. I'd be a mess.

[Haley Carnia]

He's like, let's kill all these people off because we can't afford to give them the free shit. We can't afford the free bus tickets or whatever. Let's kill them all.

[Ghee]

This might be pretty Republican, but it kind of goes against what you said. I do think there's too many people in jail that are just in jail for life that are the worst human beings in the entire. I could. I could get on some public executions.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, okay.

[Ghee]

Put a little fear in the.

[Justin]

In Roman style.

[Ghee]

Yeah, I don't know about that. That feels.

[Haley Carnia]

No, I respect it. I respect all of your opinions. Woke least. Woke. Yeah, I respect it.

[Dan]

All right, we've got Jim Rome takes on sports.

[Jim Rome]

I will always have a complicated relationship with this game, but people evolve. So do sports. Do not make me regret this. Do not make me devolve back to

[Haley Carnia]

that guy that so many clones wish that I still was. And do not embarrass the entire country.

[Jim Rome]

Now I can go back. I can get there fast. Lose tonight, and you got a real problem. Do not blow it.

[Dan]

The Jim Rome show podcast.

[Jim Rome]

You've been warned.

[Dan]

Follow and listen on your favorite platform.

[Haley Carnia]

Got a game coming up here and I'm sure you guys have seen this on different podcasts, but like the heads up game where, you know, you put some. Something on your head. We don't. We're not going to put it on my head, but we are going to take my monitor down so I can't see it. And I will ask you to take the chat down as well so no one can ruin it for me in the chat. But I'm going to have to guess the person, place, or thing that Andrew has for Me, just based on the questions. So I don't want any help from the chat. This is. This is all my brain power, and if I look stupid, then I look stupid. But this is where. This is what we're going to do.

[Ghee]

All right, we're getting it set up. Give me two seconds.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so I guess this is. This is goodbye chat. I'm not gonna be able to see what you say, but I just don't want to get. I just don't want to get influenced by what you're saying. I don't want anyone to ruin it. Not that I think that you guys would on purpose, but I don't want anyone to influence my. My guessing process. So someone said, go, Haley, you've got this. Yes, I do. I hope so. Okay, chat is down. Can't see it. I just can't. I don't want to be able to see myself.

[Justin]

No, no, it's on screen. You can't see it.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, I can't see it.

[Ghee]

Yeah, we thought through this a little bit.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, okay.

[Justin]

Okay, I can see it. Begin your guessing.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Is it a person, place, or a thing?

[Ghee]

It is a thing.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. It is a thing. Is it a thing that I can hold in my hands?

[Ghee]

Oh, that is a great question. It is not.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so it's too big. Can I carry it in any way without using another vessel, or is it too heavy?

[Ghee]

Is definitely too heavy.

[Haley Carnia]

Too heavy. Okay. Is it too heavy? Is it machinery?

[Justin]

Not machinery.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it a piece of art?

[Justin]

Yes. I would classify it as art.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Is it a statue?

[Justin]

It is a statue.

[Haley Carnia]

Is the statue in the United States of America?

[Justin]

It does find its place, find itself in the United States of America.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Is it of a person?

[Justin]

Is a statue of a person?

[Haley Carnia]

Was it a gift from France?

[Justin]

It is a French gift.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Is it?

[Haley Carnia]

The Statue of Liberty is.

[Ghee]

Good work.

[Haley Carnia]

That was pretty good.

[Ghee]

All right, here's your next.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it a person?

[Ghee]

It is not.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Is it an event?

[Ghee]

It is an event.

[Justin]

Okay.

[Haley Carnia]

A historical event.

[Ghee]

A historical event that took place in

[Haley Carnia]

the United States of America.

[Ghee]

It did, in fact, take place in the United States of America.

[Haley Carnia]

In what century?

[Ghee]

Huh?

[Haley Carnia]

Is this a hard question?

[Ghee]

I don't know. The century. Do you know the century? 18th century.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so the 1700s?

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, that was funny. Is it the. It's an event that happened in the 1700s, apparently. Is it related to a war?

[Ghee]

Say what?

[Haley Carnia]

Is it related to a war?

[Ghee]

Yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

The Revolutionary War.

[Ghee]

That is the war.

[Haley Carnia]

The Boston Tea Party.

[Ghee]

It is not.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, okay. Was there a signing of a Document?

[Unknown Male Speaker]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

They signed the Constitution.

[Justin]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, 1700s. War. You gotta help me out. I don't know.

[Justin]

I. The whole game is asking questions.

[Haley Carnia]

I'm almost there. The Declaration of the Independence.

[Ghee]

Bingo.

[Haley Carnia]

I was like, I gotta be right there.

[Ghee]

Right?

[Haley Carnia]

Okay,

[Justin]

hold on.

[Ghee]

We're gonna put. We're gonna put on the screen for you so you can see.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, okay.

[Ghee]

Yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

Isn't it crazy that they're, like, 20 years old and they look like they're 85? Powdered wigs.

[Ghee]

I couldn't imagine having to put a wig on every day.

[Haley Carnia]

It's a rough 22. Imagine wearing socks, capris, heels, and wigs every day. Could you imagine that?

[Justin]

And honestly. Let's go back. I'm tired of people looking like bums in public.

[Ghee]

I could rock with some capris.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, Justin, you wear capris.

[Justin]

I'm not wearing. No, no, no, not this. I'll wear a suit every day, though, if I like. I don't know.

[Haley Carnia]

I agree with you. I agree with you. People are dressed like bums.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, I'm down with that. Okay, next one.

[Ghee]

Here's the next one.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Person. Is it a person?

[Justin]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes. Okay. Male or female?

[Justin]

How dare you? A male.

[Haley Carnia]

Male. It's a male. Okay. Is it a politician

[Justin]

at some point.

[Haley Carnia]

At some point.

[Ghee]

He's not a politician.

[Haley Carnia]

At some point. Okay. He was a politician in the past or. You mean.

[Ghee]

Let's clarify, he's involved in politics?

[Haley Carnia]

Elon Musk.

[Ghee]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it someone like that?

[Ghee]

It's a pretty broad question. We're going to make you.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. I got to work. I got to work harder for it. Is this person an American politician?

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Are they involved in a nonprofit?

[Dan]

He's totally not a politician. They're trolling him.

[Haley Carnia]

He's not a politician.

[Dan]

He's not a politician based in politics.

[Haley Carnia]

Not a politician. So he's not in elected office.

[Dan]

Yeah. Chad is agreeing with me. He's not a politician. Absolutely not.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so he is a podcaster.

[Dan]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, okay. Totally not a politician then.

[Ghee]

Yeah, that was a Justin take.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, but he ran for office, you said.

[Justin]

Correct.

[Haley Carnia]

He ran for office. He never served, though. He never won. He ran, but he never won.

[Justin]

Correct.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it Dan Bongino?

[Justin]

That's correct.

[Haley Carnia]

I was like, he's a podcaster. He ran, but he never won. Okay.

[Ghee]

It's a great pick. Prick of the box.

[Haley Carnia]

Great pick.

[Justin]

By the way, Grok says a politician is typically refers to a person who holds or seeks elected public office. So Dan Bongino would be a politician. He ran for office.

[Haley Carnia]

But he doesn't seek it now.

[Justin]

He had sought it.

[Haley Carnia]

He sought it.

[Ghee]

He seeked it.

[Justin]

Historically. Sought it.

[Haley Carnia]

He seeked it.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Okay.

[Ghee]

All right, next one.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Is it a woman?

[Justin]

Yes.

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Justin]

Like, are you looking?

[Haley Carnia]

No, I'm not looking.

[Justin]

Okay, well, last time you asked, man or woman? Is a woman. It's fine.

[Haley Carnia]

The last one is a man, so I figured, is this a woman?

[Ghee]

Okay, let's put it this way. Guy doesn't know who this is.

[Justin]

That's not helpful.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah, well, no, that kind of helps because I feel like then it's not in the realm of politics. Maybe it's pop culture. Is it a musician

[Justin]

adjacent?

[Ghee]

No, she's not a musician.

[Haley Carnia]

Is she an actress?

[Ghee]

No, I wouldn't consider her an actress.

[Haley Carnia]

Is she a comedian?

[Ghee]

Unintentionally.

[Haley Carnia]

Is she in her 30s?

[Ghee]

Say that one more time.

[Haley Carnia]

Is she in her 30s?

[Ghee]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

Is she in her 40s?

[Ghee]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

Older than 50?

[Ghee]

I don't. Somewhere in there. I actually don't know.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it Rosie O'? Donnell?

[Ghee]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

She's 45.

[Ghee]

Okay.

[Haley Carnia]

She's 45.

[Ghee]

She's 45.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Is.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it Chelsea Handler?

[Ghee]

No.

[Dan]

I know the name. They tell me the name. I know it. I heard of it, but I could never recognize this person.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it an athlete? Has she ever been an athlete?

[Ghee]

No, definitely not an athlete.

[Haley Carnia]

Darn. Why am I bad at coming up with questions?

[Ghee]

No, these are all great questions. You're. You're heading in the right direction.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so it's just like a person. Does she comment on politics? Is she opinionated when it comes to politics?

[Ghee]

Kind of, actually.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, chat. We're. We're. I'm guessing the person on the screen. If there is a per. I can't see the person on the screen. You can see the person on the screen, and I'm coming up with questions to guess who this person is. Okay. So all I know now is that it's a woman, sort of opinionated when it comes to politics. She's 40 something years old. And what else? She's not an athlete. Not an athlete, Not a musician. Not an actress. Not a comedian.

[Ghee]

Correct. You're doing good.

[Haley Carnia]

Are they liberal?

[Ghee]

Yeah, I'd consider them liberal, yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, what are they?

[Ghee]

Not super liberal. I would just say, like, if I had to pick, they would. They'd probably be left leaning.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. Are they an activist?

[Dan]

I can't give a hint here because this one's a bit egregious. Right. Nobody really knows what she is. I don't think

[Haley Carnia]

so.

[Dan]

Like, she doesn't have a Job.

[Ghee]

She's an everything and a nothing. She doesn't have a good point by gi. Yeah, she's done a little bit.

[Haley Carnia]

She doesn't have a job like that. To me, I'm thinking Greta Thunberg or something. But she's too young.

[Justin]

No, she makes her money from being famous.

[Haley Carnia]

She makes her money from being famous.

[Dan]

Like, she's known for being hot. I don't even know if it's.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, okay, this is helping me. Is it Kim Kardashian?

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

She makes her money from being hot. That helped me.

[Ghee]

Just gave it away immediately. But you see what I'm saying, Like, your questions were spot on.

[Haley Carnia]

Yeah. She's not an actress. She's not a musician. Well, she did come out with a song. She was on television, so I should ask. Okay.

[Ghee]

No, she's done everything and nothing at the same time. It's actually insane.

[Haley Carnia]

She's a well versed individual. Yeah, She's a businesswoman.

[Ghee]

She is everything and nothing.

[Jim Rome]

Yeah.

[Ghee]

Impressive.

[Haley Carnia]

She's everything for her all at once.

[Ghee]

All right, this one's way harder, so prepare yourself.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. How many more do we have?

[Ghee]

I got a few more. At least two.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay.

[Ghee]

If you're feeling crazy, I got. I got three.

[Haley Carnia]

Let's do three. Screw it, we're here. Let's do three. Okay, so this next one, is it a male or a female?

[Ghee]

It is a male.

[Haley Carnia]

It's a male. Is he American?

[Ghee]

He is American, born and raised, imaginably.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, is he an athlete?

[Justin]

Absolutely.

[Haley Carnia]

Absolutely. The way that guy just wagged his finger like that. So he's not an athlete?

[Justin]

He's definitely an athlete.

[Ghee]

He's 100% an athlete. Maybe even one of the best, most decorated athletes. Holy hint of all time.

[Haley Carnia]

Michael Phelps.

[Dan]

No.

[Ghee]

Good guess, but no, he's not.

[Dan]

He's not a real athlete. Like, where the hell are you?

[Haley Carnia]

So he's a decorated athlete, but he's not a real athlete?

[Dan]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Does he play for a professional sports league right now?

[Dan]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

Did he ever.

[Justin]

He participates in a solo sport.

[Haley Carnia]

Solo sport. Solo sport. He's a decorated athlete. Never part of a professional sports league. What about, like, UFC? I'm thinking UFC. Is it in that? Is it like Conor McGregor?

[Ghee]

It's non combat, and usually his events are hosted annually.

[Haley Carnia]

Event hosted annually. Oh, oh. Is it the guy who eats the hot dogs?

[Ghee]

It is the guy who eats the

[Haley Carnia]

hot dog, Mr. Joey Chestnut. I was like, wait a second. Once a year I'm like, oh, athlete. Yeah, he's an athlete. Not a professional sports league. Yeah, you Guys.

[Ghee]

Yeah, we're nailing this.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Yes.

[Ghee]

Contrary to Gee's belief, we're crushing it.

[Haley Carnia]

That was a good one.

[Dan]

How is it athlete in the chat? They agree with me.

[Haley Carnia]

Professional. It's professional eatery eating. Yeah. It is technically a sport.

[Ghee]

I think watching them dunk the hot dog in the water is like the

[Haley Carnia]

girl, oh, it's so disgusting. I refuse to watch this event. Is that. Does that make. Does that make me un American? I can't. And as much as I love hot dogs, I cannot watch people eat like that. It's disgusting.

[Justin]

Someone in the chat said, eating is not a sport, Justin. And to that I say it is the way Joey Chestnut does it.

[Haley Carnia]

Yes, I would agree with that.

[Ghee]

If you're that good at your craft, you're an athlete.

[Haley Carnia]

I agree with that wholeheartedly. Okay, the next one is this.

[Ghee]

I have two more.

[Haley Carnia]

Two more. Is this an event?

[Ghee]

This is not.

[Haley Carnia]

Is this a thing? No, it's a person.

[Ghee]

Correct.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it a male?

[Ghee]

It is a male.

[Haley Carnia]

Is he handsome?

[Ghee]

I believe so.

[Haley Carnia]

Do I think he's handsome?

[Ghee]

Couldn't tell you.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, okay. So I haven't.

[Justin]

Maybe at some point in his life.

[Haley Carnia]

I haven't talked about him on the show before then.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

Huh?

[Justin]

I wouldn't agree with that statement.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, so I have talked about.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

On the.

[Haley Carnia]

I have. No, I was saying I haven't fangirled about him on the show.

[Justin]

You have not expressed your desire. Desire for him on the show?

[Haley Carnia]

So I have talked about him. I just don't. I haven't talked about whether or not he's handsome. Okay, so is it a politician?

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. He's a politician in the United States of America.

[Ghee]

Indeed.

[Haley Carnia]

Is he in office right now?

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Is he a congressman?

[Ghee]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

Is he a senator?

[Ghee]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

He's a mayor?

[Unknown Male Speaker]

No.

[Haley Carnia]

He's a governor. Is he a governor?

[Ghee]

No,

[Haley Carnia]

he's a politician. He's in elected office right now. He's not a mayor, not a governor, not a senator, not a. Whatever the other one is Congressman. Is he the president of the United States of America?

[Ghee]

He is the president of America.

[Haley Carnia]

Djt. Yes. I talk about him all the time, and I. I don't find him attractive anyway.

[Ghee]

All right, last one. This was. This is the hardest one.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, good. I'm glad we're ending on a. On a high note. Okay. Is this a person? No, it's an event.

[Ghee]

Somewhat of an event.

[Haley Carnia]

Somewhat of an event. And this took place in the United States?

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Why are you laughing, Dustin? Like, what about that is funny? It's an event that Took place. It's a. Somewhat of an event that took place in the United States.

[Ghee]

Yeah. It's not a national event, but it was an event that took place in

[Haley Carnia]

the United States, not a national event. Okay, so this took place in one area of the country. Did it take place in a specific city?

[Ghee]

Yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

Did it take place on the East Coast?

[Ghee]

It did.

[Haley Carnia]

Why is Justin laughing? Like, what is funny about Chat's loving this one? Somewhat of an event that took place on the East Coast. Did it take place in New York?

[Ghee]

No, it did not.

[Haley Carnia]

An event. Is it controversial?

[Justin]

It's exciting.

[Ghee]

It's exciting.

[Haley Carnia]

Exciting. Okay. It's exciting. It took place. Is it the UFC event? On the White House lawn?

[Justin]

Think way less national.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay, so it's a local thing. People that locals get excited about.

[Justin]

People in a specific group get excited about it.

[Haley Carnia]

Do I know. Do I know about this event?

[Justin]

Absolutely.

[Ghee]

Absolutely.

[Haley Carnia]

Would I want to go to it?

[Ghee]

Probably not.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it a teen takeover?

[Ghee]

It's not a teen takeover, but it is a takeover of sorts.

[Haley Carnia]

I wouldn't want to go to this.

[Justin]

It has not happened since it happened.

[Ghee]

It was a one.

[Haley Carnia]

It was a one timer.

[Ghee]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

Not controversial.

[Justin]

Historical event, if you will.

[Ghee]

No, not really controversial.

[Haley Carnia]

Did anyone die?

[Ghee]

You would think they did, but no, they didn't.

[Haley Carnia]

What the fuck, Bruh? I don't know. Is it a sporting event?

[Justin]

No.

[Ghee]

No, no.

[Haley Carnia]

Is it political?

[Ghee]

No.

[Justin]

Politically adjacent?

[Ghee]

Politically adjacent, but no.

[Haley Carnia]

It's like it's. I'm thinking like it's like January 6th.

[Justin]

No, it's not like way smaller.

[Haley Carnia]

Way smaller than January 6th.

[Justin]

A little more personal.

[Haley Carnia]

A little more personal. Is it like a gender reveal personal to you?

[Ghee]

Personal to you?

[Haley Carnia]

Me personally? Yeah, it's personal to me.

[Ghee]

Correct.

[Justin]

Yes.

[Haley Carnia]

And I wouldn't want to go to it.

[Ghee]

I didn't get the sense you would. Let me help you.

[Justin]

This is not. It's not like a. It's not an event event. This is a historical event. It's a one time thing that happened. This is like a moment in history.

[Haley Carnia]

So I wouldn't be able to go to it again.

[Justin]

Correct.

[Haley Carnia]

But it's personal to me.

[Justin]

Correct.

[Haley Carnia]

And it happened on the East Coast.

[Dan]

Yes.

[Justin]

Well, yeah.

[Haley Carnia]

My first Costco hot dog.

[Ghee]

No, but that would have been a good one.

[Haley Carnia]

I don't know.

[Justin]

That's. You're in the ballpark.

[Ghee]

You're in the ballpark, though.

[Haley Carnia]

I went there.

[Justin]

You were there.

[Haley Carnia]

I was there.

[Ghee]

Correct.

[Haley Carnia]

I have to nail down. Did this happen in Florida?

[Ghee]

Yes,

[Haley Carnia]

and I wouldn't want to go.

[Ghee]

I don't get the sense that you would want to repeat this historic event.

[Haley Carnia]

So it was bad.

[Ghee]

It wasn't great. It seemed some.

[Justin]

Some people enjoyed it. Some people did not enjoy it.

[Haley Carnia]

I'm so confused. I was there.

[Ghee]

Yes, you were there.

[Justin]

It had to do with scrolling. Dare I say, it had to do with the nightly scroll.

[Ghee]

Again, let me help you. This was before I arrived on the scene. The event took place before me.

[Haley Carnia]

What? It was a nightly scroll thing, apparently. I'm so lost.

[Ghee]

All right, I'm gonna reveal it to you because I think you're gonna be flabbergasted.

[Justin]

Oh, we beat her on one. And it was.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, I'm like, what? This is not a historical event.

[Ghee]

I told you.

[Justin]

It was a nightly scroll. Historical nightly scroll event.

[Haley Carnia]

Okay. I'm thinking, like, okay.

[Justin]

Chat was chat. Loved that one.

[Haley Carnia]

When we had the lizard in the studio, that is like, I was so. So not. Like, I was not thinking about this at all. Some people in the chat are saying I didn't know about this event. Some people are newer viewers. Yeah.

[Ghee]

This was really fun for Haley and Justin. I just got to watch the video on Twitter.

[Haley Carnia]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Just to fill everyone in, there was a ghee. Were you in on this lizard business? Were you a fan of this? Yeah, Okay. I. I.

[Justin]

Just.

[Haley Carnia]

To fill everyone in, there. What? There was a lizard in the studio one night, and I was just freaking out the whole show because I didn't want it to, like, fall on me or just crawl across the desk or anything like that. So anyway, I. Dang. A moment Got me on the last. A moment in time.

[Ghee]

You did really good, though. I was very impressed. You.

[Haley Carnia]

That was fun.

[Ghee]

Prior to the show, we were trying to, like, give her, like, a tip on, like, what the theme was.

[Haley Carnia]

I was so nervous.

[Ghee]

Really nervous.

[Haley Carnia]

They were like, I don't know if you're gonna get some of these. And I'm like, am I gonna look stupid? Is this, like.

[Ghee]

No, of course not. You're smart.

[Haley Carnia]

No, I know. I know.

[Unknown Female Speaker]

I'm.

[Haley Carnia]

I'm cool. I'm cool. All right, well, thank you so much for scrolling along with me today. Again, no show tomorrow, so I will see you right back here on Monday. I hope everyone has a great Fourth of July weekend. Stay safe. Stay safe, and I'll see you next week. Bye.

[Justin]

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

[Haley Carnia]

Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited Premium Wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal.

[Dan]

So there goes my big idea for the commercial.

[Haley Carnia]

Give it a [e-mail] switch upfront payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months or $180 for a 12 month plan required $15 per month equivalent taxes and fees Extra initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes. Me slow when network is busy. See terms.
