Chapter 2: Why did Dave Portnoy have a meltdown?
Dave Portnoy is a satirist, a pundit, but he has a third rail. And third rail for him, and it's very emotional for him, is these issues of not just Jewish jokes, but this assault. I mean, F the Jews outside of that pizza place. He's just doing his stand-up thing for pizza, and this guy comes by. I mean, that's bad. Now, for comedy, we have freedom of speech. Mm-hmm.
We also have consequences and we've seen guys walk up to the stage and confront comedians. We've seen comedians that were, you know, punched in the mouth. And so we also have a consensus among comedians and I've seen it discussed that says, hey, look. If you go too far here, here or here, you know, part of the audience, since that's tasteless, you may be on the edge there.
And what they're saying is, I got freedom of speech to be whatever comedy I want. But if you want to go here, here or here, you might be careful and you might better be depending what your identity is and where you're coming from and what you're perceived. Du hast etwas sehr wichtiges gesagt vor zwei Wochen, Tom. Du hast gesagt, hast du bemerkt, was mit Komedien passiert, wenn sie älter sind?
Erinnerst du dich, als du das gesagt hast? Ja. Kannst du das mit dem Publikum teilen, was mit Komedien passiert, wenn sie älter sind? Sie werden schmerzhaft und sie werden sehr, sehr iconoklastisch und kalt und fast somber. Warum denn? I don't know. By the way, there's something else we can talk about. They talk about it in L.A.
that the older comedians get that you have depression and drug use rises. Even compared to the partying in their 20s, that it gets very dark for a lot of comedians later in life. Vinny, I'm being serious. I'm not satiring here. People talk about that the comedians get older.
You know where I was going with this, though? Where I was going with this is the following. If you build your brand on being a troll, und ein Comic und ein Schock-Jock und ein Shit-Talker, nicht überrascht werden, wenn Leute dich attackieren. Das ist deine Marke. Weißt du, was ich meine? Du kannst nicht überrascht werden, wenn das Teil deiner Marke ist.
Wenn dein Name Michael Jordan ist und du gehst in die Spiele und sprichst Scheiß zu deinem Gegner, dann bist du besser bereit. Wenn dein Name Gary Payton ist und du willst rauskommen, wenn dein Name Conor McGregor ist, dann kannst du eventuell in einen Khabib reinkommen, der nicht so ist. Schau, wie Khabib ist. Khabib ist kein Komedian. Er ist kein Promoter. Er ist kein Typ, der das macht.
100%.
And Adam, I hope you're not pretending like Hollywood and the world doesn't mock Christians and Christianity and movies and... No, it does. No, hold on. It happens all the time. Oh, yeah. And so you can't, don't say that it doesn't happen. People aren't losing their minds.

Chapter 6: How does the US debt impact the economy?
I didn't say that. You're quite literally changing everything you say. Kirk, if you just want me to kick them out and not mention it, not care that this kid is anti-Semitic, shut up. If you just want me to ignore it. Don't tell me to shut up. Shut the fuck up, you bald fuck! Okay, go ahead. How's that? Oh, it's killer. I'll never recover from that, Dave. Go ahead, continue. I'll never recover.
Well, you're the one who's like, oh, big boss man, don't tell. I'll tell you, you work for me. Okay, go ahead, continue. You little bitch, you work for me. Sure, you bet. For now, quit.
I don't care. I'll save 500 grand.
Is this a show or not a show? Like, is this a show or not a show? Like, we can't have a conversation? You're an idiot. You're literally saying people should be allowed to make Jew jokes, say whatever they want right fucking now. Yes, I think people should be allowed to make jokes. So how many motherfucking Jews have to be killed before you stop?
Everybody, I don't think... What else, where else is that happening with the religion or people? I don't think those psychopaths, I'm with you.
Okay, Vinny, thoughts? Okay, well...
First of all, I understand. I understand where he's coming from. You can see the stuff that's happening on Harvard and all these campuses. But what the other guy is trying to say... What was his name, Robby? Kirk Menehein? Kirk is saying... Joking, like making jokes, calling him Rabbi Dave. I'm sorry. This is why this country is the greatest country, because you have freedom of speech.
And speaking of freedom of speech, Rob, can you play? This is a clip, Pat. Dave Pornhub doesn't want the jokes. or anything to happen that has to do against the Jews, I'm sorry. This is a country where you could say, you know, to hell with the Jews, to hell with the blacks, to hell with the Middle Easterns. You could call Middle Easterns terrorists that aren't terrorists, that are Christians.
Guess what? This is where we live. We don't live in England where a Facebook post could have the cops show up to your house, okay? This is him. This is him talking about Colin Kaepernick and Arabic people and saying that he thought he was ISIS. Can you just play this one real quick, Robby?
