Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus. I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks. I want to thank Charlie. He's an incredible guy. His spirit, his love of this country. He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country. That's why we are here.

Okay, everybody, I recently sat down with my friend and legend, Dr. Jordan Peterson. We discussed a lot.
We discussed my biography, kind of the origin story of Turning Point USA, and it was a phenomenal honor. And so I'm going to walk you through it, actually, and kind of give you some commentary and some things to go even deeper into some of the stuff we talked about. So we started with Dr. Peterson asking a very provocative and funny question. about insulin resistance. It's quite a start to the conversation. Listen.
So I've got a gotcha question for you. It's now your warrant. Okay. Okay. So you know that Robert F. Kennedy and Mehmet Oz, and I suppose Jay Bhattacharya too, are all hands on deck to restore American health. And that likely the biggest problem problem that's confronting us is insulin resistance.
I agree with that.
Too much, way too much sugar and obesity and all that goes along with it. But insulin resistance, it's just devastating. It makes you old. It makes you diabetic. It's terrible. It interferes with your cognition. It increases the probability that you'll get Alzheimer's. And that's all linked to carbohydrate excess intake, right? You agree with all that?
I agree with that.
Okay. And yet- When you were in high school, one of the first things you did to begin your political career was agitate for a, what, reduction or stabilization of the price of cookies at the school?
We were against cookie inflation.
Yeah. So looking back from your position of wisdom, 13, 14 years later, what do you have to say to the American public about cookie advocacy?
I should have been advocating for reduction in the hamburger or steak prices. You see, that would have been a much better health approach. But all kidding aside, the funny undercurrent of that is that's kind of what started my political advocacy.
I know. I know. It is hilarious.
I kind of look back. even just 13 years ago when cookie prices were the number one concern. This was before DoorDash, this was before all that. And I look at these high school kids now, but they're able to order into high school. They have entire cubby rooms of like half of the high school class that is just getting takeout. So in our high school in the suburbs of Chicago, the biggest thing was these basically homemade cookies that nearly tripled in price over the course of a year. So we started Students Against Cookie Inflation, which was a rather righteous effort, I might say.
