29 Nov 2025
Chapter 1: Is TikTok becoming openly anti-Christian?
TikTok has become a militant non-Christian arm designed specifically to beat down followers of Christ. Almost every live is about this in some way, some capacity. Even the political ones are really heavily anti-Christian. Very left-wing orientated. And I was able to expose that best after Charlie Kirk had died. And we were able to sit in and listen to their conversations and engage with them.
And just watching these people revel.
Chapter 2: What does Andrew Wilson think about censorship on YouTube?
They reveled in his death. Now, you know, maybe, okay, you're a leftist and I'm being the most charitable I can be. I don't care. I didn't like the guy anyway. You know, I can maybe reconcile that in my head. But to revel in it? Like, that takes it to the next level. But why not revel in the death of a Nazi?
Chapter 3: How is conservative infighting affecting the movement?
Yeah, that's f***ed up. Okay, guys, we are in Las Vegas. We finally got Andrew Wilson out here. It took some time, but thanks for coming, man. Of course. Thank you for having me.
Chapter 4: What was the reaction to Charlie Kirk's death on TikTok?
I appreciate it. Your studio is excellent, by the way. Not bad, right? Yeah. Yeah, it's really nice. You do all your stuff from your house, right?
Chapter 5: How does Andrew define TikTok as a spiritual battlefield?
Yep, yep. My command station is or was my basement. Little man cave? Yeah, I recently moved to Texas. Okay. Because I needed additional studio space, so I'm building a new studio there.
Chapter 6: What challenges does Andrew face in debate culture?
Scaling, man. Yeah. Let's go. What part of Texas? Can't say. Can't say? Yeah. Yeah, you got some enemies. Yeah. I've had a lot of guests go after you, man. I got a list here. Nema, Not So Eurodite came on last week, Gary the Numbers Guy, Emily Saves America, Farha the Feminist. So it's nice to finally have you here to defend yourself. Oh, I appreciate that.
Yeah, something about you is very polarizing, it seems, with these liberals, huh? They get very upset with me, yes. Isn't it funny how it's always post-debate, but they can't shut up about me, but I never mention them again? Yeah, it's interesting. Isn't that interesting?
Chapter 7: What is Debate University and its significance?
It's almost like, well, maybe I didn't perform very well, and I need to cope for the next rest of my life. That's what it feels like to me. Very interesting, yeah. How long have you been doing debates for?
Chapter 8: How does Andrew prepare for his debates?
Well, I guess five years, but I really started going hard at it about two and a half years ago. That's when I decided I'm going to actually try to pursue this full time, which is a dangerous thing because, as you know, in this business, very, very difficult to make ends meet for most people. And almost nobody makes it. So it was, yeah, like that was kind of a terrifying transition.
But who dares wins? It's very hard. I mean, as we're filming this, I got a strike this morning. Yeah. For what? Medical misinformation. I thought YouTube wasn't doing that anymore. They are still doing it, man. I got one a year ago for vaccine stuff, and I thought that'd be the last one, but I just got hit with one this morning. So it's an uphill battle always.
You know, it's very hard to make it. That's why I don't even keep content on YouTube. I put it all on my website because I just do the lives on YouTube and that's it. Because they're ever-changing TOS. You can't keep up with it. They give you no justification. They give you no guidance. They don't help you at all. Even if you have a rep there, it's not even that helpful. Yeah.
I still don't have a rep. Never got my 100K plaque. Never got my mill plaque. No one's ever reached out to me about that. I hit those milestones a long time ago. Is your channel monetized? Yeah, we're monetized. Then you should get the plaque. So weird, dude. I know many people that haven't gotten their plaques. Really? Yeah. Did you get yours? I did. Really? Yeah.
Okay, so you're on good terms with YouTube. Yeah. I guess because you go live and you're bringing them a lot of volume. Yeah, and then, well... I think that YouTube would prefer to not ever have any political content ever again. You think so? I think that they would prefer to have cat videos and women doing their nails. That's how it used to be.
And fluffy nonsense and stuff like that because they're advertisers. I mean, that's where they're making all their money. Super chats, yeah, that's a good revenue stream. But think of it from their angle. I remember I was talking with Pearl Davis about this, and I'm like, look, it doesn't matter if you bring in $100,000 a month and YouTube gets $20,000 of it.
If they have a sponsor that's worth millions, and the sponsor says, I don't want my stuff on that channel, and if it even accidentally goes on that channel, right, I'm pulling my sponsorship, you're gone. What do they care? They're the largest video sharing platform in the world. They don't need you. And so I think, unfortunately, you've got to play within the confines of the game. And it sucks.
I do everything I can to help creators avoid that kind of stuff. But I'm really sorry to hear that, man. Yeah. I tell people not to have the social media platforms as your primary source of income. Use it as a side thing. Because if you rely on them for the payouts, it's too risky. Yeah, they will eventually do you in. What do you think about their recent unbanning of certain accounts?
They didn't really unban anybody, come on. Sneeko? Well, Sneeko they did, but here's the thing. Sneeko had worked really hard for a couple of years to recover his image, and I thought he did a good job with his image campaign. I've talked with Sneeko quite a bit. He's always treated me very well. And I was happy to see him get that back because...
