It feels like you hand-selected a couple of friends to go do this. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it should have been a lottery system like Willy Wonka where just seven random people should have been able to go in this. I would do it just to change my... That would be fun.
Just seven random people.
Just a cashier at HEB, someone from MS-13. Yeah, that was what I was thinking.
Someone from Trendiagua and Lauren Sanchez and Gayle King and, you know.
I saw that there was a restraining order. I saw that he was hanging out with two guys that were in MS-13. Yeah, they released the... Yeah, he's definitely sketchy.
Oh, the hairdresser has a mom and dad. Oh, no, there was a guy with an autism awareness tattoo, and they thought it was like an MS-13 tattoo, but it doesn't look like an MS-13 tattoo. It's a literal... The problem is everybody's a liar. You don't know.
And if they did ship some- Ironically, the only people I trust are MS-13. And podcasters. Because they'll tell you. And podcasters. Podcasters and MS-13. That's all I trust. I would love if you just had MS-13 on. Just three guys with tattoos. Because, by the way, there would be no outrage. That's what's hilarious.
If you had three MS-13 gang members, not one person would go, why did he have them on?
If you have anyone else on, it'll be a horrible thing. But if it was three guys, MS-13, with head-to-toe tattoos, who admitted to killing multiple people, and you said, now tell me about what it's like to grow up in San Pedro Sula or whatever. And it would be okay, right?
I think it's criminal of you to even discuss anything.
Yes. And they're fascinating. They're co-opting. I still haven't accepted the fact that I've left the left. I did a CNN interview for an hour because I'm promoting my special. And then did you really?
This girl, Elle Reeves. Was she cool? Elle, she was cool. She does all the, you know, when you see the Vice documentaries where she talks to the Nazis and the incels?
It was that chick. And they sent her in. Oh, that's a good move for them. I was like, this is hilarious. So I'm sitting there and she sits down. She's like, are there any left-wing comedians? And I named 10 of them. that are all in arenas. And she goes, oh, because their whole thing now is that podcasters are the most powerful people in the world.
And she goes, do you think your friends are the new establishment? I said, well, there's 22 intelligence agencies and entire legacy media. There's lots of Ivy League schools. There's this, there's that. Do I think Theo Vaughn's the new establishment? No. I don't think so. I think you ran a really unpopular candidate. I don't think Americans like child sex changes.
And I don't think they want an open border. And I think if you co-opted some of those issues, you might have won. They said to me at CNN, they're like, we're editing the interview. I said, put the hour out. I sat there for an hour and we had a nice conversation. But, you know, we talked for one hour and I was like, put it out. I'm like, I understand if you can't put it out.
And then she goes like this. She goes, I can't believe you'd show up. People have said that they can't come on here because Joe Rogan would get mad at them. I said, that's absolutely ridiculous. Why would I say he doesn't care? He would never care. I said, oh, that's so silly. It's the silliest thing ever. They think we're at war. I just said put out the thing, put out the hour online.
If you can only put out a few minutes on network, fine. But it's wrong to have someone come in and talk for an hour and then not- And then use three minutes. And then use five minutes.
It's fucked up. So how much did they use? We don't know yet. They haven't put it out. And did they say we can't put the whole hour out? I texted this journalist and she texted me. She goes, I'm pushing for like a long form release. I go- Yeah, man. Just put out the interview.
Yeah, we had a conversation about all these things you guys talk about. Yeah, you guys have a website. Then what are we doing? Don't you have a YouTube page?
Put the fucking whole hour out. I go, she goes, what do you think that Joe Rogan should, why is it so popular? I go, well, one of the reasons is he doesn't edit people. They're not edited. They come on, they say what they want to say, and there's no editing.
