Speaker 6 I would kick an orphan in the head to

Speaker 6 it. I would kick an orphan in the head.

Speaker 7 Mediaite headline: Riley Gaines would kick orphan in the head.

Speaker 7 For money.

Speaker 7 Welcome to Yes or No, the bibulous battle to discover who knows whom better. My guest today is Riley Gaines.
How do we play? I will ask Riley a yes or no question.

Speaker 7 She will select her answer away from my prying eyes. Then I will guess how she answered.
If I guess correctly, I get a point. If I guess incorrectly, I lose a point.

Speaker 7 No No matter what, I will probably end up drinking. And it's Riley's turn.
Neither of us has seen the questions beforehand. Whoever has the most points at the end wins.
The stakes could be higher.

Speaker 7 Let's get started.

Speaker 6 Riley, good to see you. Good to see you.

Speaker 7 I'm excited. Hold on.
You have a glass of water.

Speaker 6 I do.

Speaker 7 I know. So already you're at an advantage because I have a martini.

Speaker 6 Could be a disadvantage, depending how you look at it. Depending how you look at it.

Speaker 7 Why the...

Speaker 6 Exciting news. I am rounding out my pregnancy.

Speaker 6 Pregnant with a little girl, super duper excited. I'm due in September, which is crazy.

Speaker 7 I knew that, by the way, I knew that was a setup like in show business where I yeah, but the thing I didn't know Riley is that you're like seven months pregnant, whatever it is. Yeah.

Speaker 7 You look, this is not flattery. You look like you're two weeks pregnant.
I don't know. Very sweet.
Is this what happens when you're an athlete?

Speaker 6 You know, I really do think there's truth to that.

Speaker 6 Being fit fit prior to pregnancy, prior to conception, it has made my entire pregnancy feel like a breeze.

Speaker 6 No fatigue, no tired,

Speaker 6 no aversions, no anything. Like I have felt the exact same as I did pre-pregnancy.

Speaker 6 So hopefully it means something for postpartum too, and we can bounce back quick and get back into my jeans because they certainly don't fit anymore.

Speaker 7 It's only slightly tight. Well, if you're all good with no aversions and no tiredness or whatever, then you should have a drink.
I think the kid would appreciate it.

Speaker 6 I think she wants one.

Speaker 7 As long as you, I find with pregnancy, I'm not a medical doctor, but I am an honorary doctor, and I find that as long as you balance out the booze in pregnancy with a few cigarettes to get an upper, you're totally good.

Speaker 7 The kid will thank you for it.

Speaker 6 That's, I mean, if people in the 1500s survived like the bubonic plague. Yeah.
I mean, what's a little

Speaker 7 alcohol going to do? I know. I drink a lot during my wife's pregnancy.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 My husband says it all the time. He's like, so what are we craving today?

Speaker 7 What's our cravings?

Speaker 6 So.

Speaker 7 Now, do you know the rules? I know the rules. Good.
I don't. I don't know them.

Speaker 6 And if I, if, well, if neither of us do, we can make them up. Yeah, I like that.
Even more fun. I like that.

Speaker 7 You're a lady, so you go first.

Speaker 6 You take the prompt. So I'm going to ask you this.
Yes. And I'm going to guess how, I'm going to guess what you think if you would put yes or no.
Correct.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 6 I, Riley Gaines, would be willing to rematch Leah Thomas in a charity 200-yard freestyle, but it likely won't happen because Leah no longer has the balls to do it.

Speaker 6 Wow.

Speaker 7 Say the first part of the prompt again.

Speaker 6 I, Riley Gaines, would be willing to rematch Leah Thomas in a charity 200-yard freestyle, eight laps, but it likely won't happen because Leah no longer has the balls to do it.

Speaker 7 I got it wrong? What do you mean I got it wrong?

Speaker 6 Well, how do you know you got it wrong?

Speaker 7 Because he told me in my ear. Ah.
This is sh.

Speaker 6 A billion dollars?

Speaker 7 Wait, so I was correct?

Speaker 7 I was correct. Oh, good.
What did you put? Hold on.

Speaker 7 Ben,

Speaker 7 please speak English to me. Am I correct or incorrect?

Speaker 6 Suspense.

Speaker 7 Oh, she got it incorrect.

Speaker 6 How did I get it incorrect?

Speaker 7 That's great.

Speaker 7 Because I'm guessing how I think.

Speaker 7 You're guessing how I think you would answer. And now here's why you got...
you were wrong about what I think you would do.

Speaker 6 Okay, okay, so you put no.

Speaker 7 I put no. Because

Speaker 6 I thought you would say yes. We're talking a billion dollars.

Speaker 7 Yeah, but listen, it's not about the money. It's, you know, I guess everyone has a principle.

Speaker 6 Well, if it's a charity.

Speaker 7 It's the principle of this. Okay, okay.

Speaker 7 It's wrong to race against this guy.

Speaker 6 But I think I could beat him.

Speaker 7 Because he got the snip.

Speaker 6 He got the snip. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Even being seven months pregnant now and very much out of shape. I think I'm supposed to drink.
You're not supposed to drink, but you're just doing it for fun.

Speaker 7 It's solidarity, yeah.

Speaker 6 Even being seven months pregnant now,

Speaker 6 my fitness has,

Speaker 6 I think, remained. I think, of course, I've lost like

Speaker 6 muscle mass and

Speaker 6 naturally, still running, swimming Alcatraz next week. Like, I still very much amend to my fitness.
I think I could totally take them.

Speaker 6 And if I had a billion dollars to give to the charity of my choosing, I wouldn't even think about what that charity would be. It would be totally like a...

Speaker 6 like a slap in the face to him. It would go to like the most

Speaker 6 pro-

Speaker 7 But hold on.

Speaker 6 pro-reality, pro-science, pro-woman charity out there. So then it's a billion dollars to a good cause.
That was my logic, because I truthfully think I could take him.

Speaker 7 But you're now, because

Speaker 7 I'm not going to say that. Yeah, yeah, he's out of shape and you're in shape.
That's why you could take him now. That's what we're saying.
But it's still wrong.

Speaker 7 In general, women should not be expected to come. Of course not.

Speaker 7 But you're saying you could take him for all sorts of reasons, including the SNP. Of course.
I guess my argument is there are plenty of things you wouldn't do for no amount of money.

Speaker 6 But it's not personal gain. It's for a greater good.

Speaker 7 I'm saying, let's say someone said, I'll give you a billion dollars to the charity of your choice if you kick an orphan in the head.

Speaker 7 Would you do it? Billion dollars. I'm sorry, let me change it.
$10 billion. If you just kick a orphan to die.
Not that hard. No, an orphan wouldn't die, would just have a bruise.

Speaker 6 A bruise for $10 billion for a greater good.

Speaker 6 That's where we're at. I think.

Speaker 7 It's a little utilitarian.

Speaker 6 I would kick an orphan in the head to...

Speaker 6 But think of the orphans. Let's say it goes back to a.

Speaker 7 you would kick an orphan in the head.

Speaker 6 This is the clip. Riley Gaines.

Speaker 6 I would kick an orphan in the head.

Speaker 7 Media headline: Riley Gaines would kick orphan in the head

Speaker 6 for money.

Speaker 6 For $10 billion, I would kick an orphan in the head. Great, wow.
That's the clip.

Speaker 7 This is why she's such a killer athlete. The clip.
Total killer.

Speaker 6 Yeah, no, just totally honed up. Psycho.
Okay, all right.

Speaker 7 Well, I would rematch him.

Speaker 6 And I think there's other men too, like people like Keith Olberman. This is a guy who like constantly is like on X coming after me.
He has like a super weird, unhealthy like obsession with me.

Speaker 6 Even Grock admitted it. We were talking about Grock prior to filming and how Grock is

Speaker 6 actually, I think, super woke and whatever. But also,

Speaker 7 as of the time of this filming, Grock endorsed Hitler last night.

Speaker 7 So I don't know if you caught that one.

Speaker 7 He's the Grakenfuhrer now. So

Speaker 7 very far left on the one hand,

Speaker 7 a little bit far right on the other.

Speaker 6 Is being pro-Hitler far right anymore, though? I don't even know.

Speaker 7 It might be a horseshoe thing.

Speaker 7 It's a little, it's a confusing ideology.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I can't keep up. Yeah.
Anyways, I would challenge Keith Olderman, too.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 6 And I think I've made this public. I would challenge him to a charity race, and I would beat him.
Yes. And then I would have money to a charity of my choosing.

Speaker 7 Would you kick him in the head?

Speaker 6 Happily for free. I would pay him to kick him in the head.

Speaker 6 That's fair. This is not promoting violence.

Speaker 7 Now, I am guessing

Speaker 7 how you would answer. Deportations should not stop with Satan worshiping gang members.
They should also include the illegal abuelas selling empanadas.

Speaker 7 For sure. For sure.
Obviously, it has to.

Speaker 6 Definitely.

Speaker 7 There's like 16 million illegal tattoos. Definitely.
There weren't that many with face tattoos.

Speaker 6 I think I have,

Speaker 6 given the fact that I'm married to an immigrant, of course a legal immigrant,

Speaker 7 was he Trende Aragua or MS-13? MS-13.

Speaker 6 MS-13, I figured it was. It was really hard getting him here.
Trump really pulled through. We're so glad that he was president.
He issued him his green card.

Speaker 7 It's good to have friends in high places.

Speaker 6 Totally.

Speaker 6 But no, really, it is Trump that made it easier for my immigrant husband to be here. We've been married over three years, and of course, with the previous administration.

Speaker 6 Got married in 2022, applied for a green card,

Speaker 6 but Biden would not give my husband a green card because he wasn't willing to get the COVID shot. So when Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th president,

Speaker 6 gave it 24 hours before I pick up the phone and I say, hey, granted, my husband was here legally the entire time, of course.

Speaker 6 I say, hey, did you know about this mandate, this rule that I would deem illegal? He says, no, give me two hours.

Speaker 6 And within two hours, he had vacated nationwide the mandate requiring legal immigrants to get the COVID vaccine. So all that to say, my husband now has a green card.

Speaker 6 But knowing that process, what it's like, of course the struggles with it, but also

Speaker 6 how it can be done correctly, of course how it should be done correctly,

Speaker 6 I don't really have a ton of sympathy for those who don't do it the right way.

Speaker 7 No, no, of course.

Speaker 7 Yeah, like, I mean, I feel a little bad only in that the Democrats, Biden in particular, said, hey, come here. Of course.
And then you have these, you know,

Speaker 7 Ecuadoran peasants who come over here and they think it's gonna be fine, and they would say, No, actually, we have laws, you know, and you can't just

Speaker 7 do that. So, I feel a little bit bad, but I'm sorry.
Yeah, that's adios.

Speaker 6 That's how I feel, too. Yeah, and it's an ongoing debate at the national level with the whole amnesty thing and everything going on there.
So, we shall see.

Speaker 7 A lot of entrenched interests. One, they say they don't want amnesty for everyone, just like their people.
Yeah. You know, it's never

Speaker 7 you want to deport everyone except your gardener or whatever. Okay.
That's how it goes. You're up.

Speaker 7 Clear my card.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 6 Ooh, this is a video or photo prompt. I don't really know what that means.
I hope it means there's a video or photo.

Speaker 6 I would infer that that's a Epstein cell video clip from Megan Kelly's Monday show.

Speaker 6 So we watched this?

Speaker 7 Yes.

Speaker 6 Okay.

Speaker 7 Okay. Oh, I saw this.
1158, 55, 6, 7,

Speaker 7 8. No, wow.

Speaker 7 What was that about?

Speaker 6 Just a full minute.

Speaker 7 And a frame change.

Speaker 6 Are you more than 50%

Speaker 6 sure?

Speaker 6 Wait, a frame change? I don't know if I noticed that.

Speaker 7 That's interesting.

Speaker 6 Play it again. That's interesting.
And

Speaker 6 it would change.

Speaker 7 Look at that. Let's see.
So you see it 58.

Speaker 6 So is he in this cell 46? Isn't that kind of funny? 46?

Speaker 6 It feels like a little hidden Easter egg there.

Speaker 7 Ooh.

Speaker 7 If you squint really closely, you can see Hillary Papa. See that frame change? You see that? How it zoomed out a little bit?

Speaker 6 Okay, okay. Are you more than 50% sure you know what happened during this missing 60 seconds? I'm guessing what you would say.

Speaker 6 Okay, but like, are you going to be serious about this or are you going to have some funny theory?

Speaker 7 No, I'm not going to have some funny theory. Well, it might be funny.
But I don't. I'm going to be quite serious about this.

Speaker 6 I hate losing. Yeah.

Speaker 7 You're quite yourself. This feels stressful to me.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Did I get it right? You did. So you said no.

Speaker 7 I said no. I'm not.

Speaker 7 I'm confident. I'm more than 50% confident of what didn't happen.
Okay.

Speaker 6 So.

Speaker 7 I think what didn't happen is

Speaker 7 he was just kind of hanging out in his cell and no one came to bother him.

Speaker 7 But I don't know what happened.

Speaker 6 What logistically can happen in 60 seconds? It's not a lot of time.

Speaker 7 Might be enough time.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 6 And it's certainly suspicious, but 60 seconds isn't.

Speaker 7 Could you kick an orphan in 60 seconds? For $10 billion.

Speaker 7 Easily. You could do it in 10 seconds.
Yeah. That's what I'm saying.
You get a...

Speaker 7 If he were murdered, I'm not saying he was murdered, but if he were murdered, a trained hitman could easily kill Jeffrey Epstein within 60 seconds.

Speaker 6 But in the manner that he died.

Speaker 6 But then how, like, like.

Speaker 7 He cracked his neck, basically, right?

Speaker 6 Right, but but then how is he then hanging from the ceiling or wherever he was?

Speaker 7 It was from the bedpost. So you know, you come in with the little sheet or whatever, you wrap it around his neck.
I bet I could do it.

Speaker 6 In 60 seconds.

Speaker 7 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 Maybe for me it would take 70, but I'm not a trained killer. That's true.
No, I don't know that he was murdered.

Speaker 7 He might have killed himself. Right.
And also, I don't really necessarily believe that's only one minute. Right.
I think the jump cut allows it to be. It could be two hours.
That's true.

Speaker 7 So it could be that he was allowed to kill himself. Could be that he was allowed to kill himself because he was a super spy.

Speaker 7 Could be he was allowed to kill himself because he was a total creep who had people gunning for him and he was at his wit's end. It could have been any of those reasons.

Speaker 7 The one thing I'm pretty sure about, though, one thing I'm pretty calm, is that the official story, which is he was a super rich sex freak who was friends with the richest and most powerful people in the entire world,

Speaker 7 but

Speaker 7 those two facts had nothing to do with each other.

Speaker 6 Interesting.

Speaker 7 It was all just, and speaking of prisons, you know, Ghi Lane Maxwell is in prison right now for trafficking underage girls to nobody.

Speaker 6 Yeah,

Speaker 6 that to me, I was super shocked by kind of the just dismissiveness that we saw from the administration about this issue.

Speaker 6 Because not only, of course, was this something that he campaigned on and promised, it was the manner of which he responded to now

Speaker 6 what has been proven, like the abuse and the harm and the mistreatment and the exploitation of minors or

Speaker 6 whatever it was by him and his cohort. Again, it's like factual information at this point.

Speaker 7 Can I tell you, look, I was not surprised.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 7 A little, you know, I mean, I can't even say it was disappointing because I never thought we were going to get the Epstein list or whatever.

Speaker 6 Even when the influencers went to the White House and had the binders, what did you think was in the binders?

Speaker 7 At first, I was so irritated. I said, why didn't I get the invite day? Yeah, no.
Then after the fallout, I said, I'm kind of really glad they didn't call me about the binder day. But

Speaker 7 I actually sympathize with Trump

Speaker 7 when that reporter reporter asked him, what about the list? And he goes, enough about Epstein. I'm sick about talking about this.
I want to talk about the border. I want to talk about this.

Speaker 7 I totally sympathize. Because you know what my theory is?

Speaker 7 If the official story is not true, if

Speaker 7 being that Jeffrey Epstein just like coincidentally was friends with all these really rich and he was filming them, but it all had nothing to do with anything and move along. Right, right, right.

Speaker 7 If he belonged to intelligence, as Alex Acosta reportedly said, U.S. Attorney on the case when he worked for labor secretary,

Speaker 7 You were never going to get any more.

Speaker 7 And

Speaker 7 it kind of makes sense. Because governments are not radically transparent.
They can't be. No institution can be, certainly not governments.

Speaker 7 Espionage requires secrecy. Right.
Statecraft, broadly required.

Speaker 6 But then I guess the question is, why do you have Alina Abba going on Piers Morgan saying, oh, we have the files. I'm looking at them.
They're on the desk.

Speaker 7 Or Pam Bandi. Exactly.
Or Pambandi. So,

Speaker 7 but part of it is people got a little out ahead of their skis, I think.

Speaker 7 And maybe Trump would want to release it too. The one thing I'm confident of, I don't think Trump is heavily.
I agree with that. I think that would have been released ages ago.

Speaker 7 They set the stage for the guy to be murdered, and they tried to imprison him four times or whatever. So that's not it.

Speaker 7 I think Trump is expressing a frustration that he wants to do these things. He loves transparency.

Speaker 7 He loves tweeting all his policies out. He's quite all cash.

Speaker 7 He's quite transparent. And I think he's probably doing the responsible thing because if

Speaker 7 just what we know

Speaker 7 turns out to be true and taken to its logical conclusion, that royalty, heads of state, billionaires are all involved in this thing,

Speaker 7 if you start to just willy-nilly

Speaker 7 expose the whole thing, you would be unraveling the global order. Yeah, it's a lot of fun.
The world order would collapse. There would be revolutions in countries.

Speaker 7 So I'm sure part, again, this is pure speculation, but I'm sure part of Trump is like, whatever, let's do it.

Speaker 7 Screw that Prince so-and-so or Prime Minister so-and-so. But part of him, I think he is kind of doing the responsible thing, but that's going to be deeply unsatisfying to a lot of people.

Speaker 6 Me being one of them, I think it's unsatisfying.

Speaker 6 I think, just again, given the way that it was campaigned on, but I agree. I don't think he is in the files in any of that sort of thing.

Speaker 7 Well, maybe he was, I don't know.

Speaker 7 Epstein was a member of the Mar-a-Lago Club until Trump kicked him out. So that's the Democrats say, well, they had a connection.

Speaker 6 He had a connection with...

Speaker 7 He had a connection with Harvard University. Yeah, I think it's a, trust me, if it were a serious connection,

Speaker 7 that would have been the fifth prosecution of Trump. Right.
That would, okay. Well, look,

Speaker 7 the one thing I think we can all agree on is the government would never lie or conceal anything. Never.
They never have. Never.
So why would they start now? When are we going to get the JFK files?

Speaker 7 Yeah, right? I'm up.

Speaker 7 Here is a video prompt.

Speaker 6 Ooh, two in a row.

Speaker 3 You want healing and unity? This guy. The greatest threat to healing and unity in American history.
Get Donald Trump out of office and we don't give a good

Speaker 3 how you do it.

Speaker 6 So this is the guy I said I would kick in the head for free. Actually, I would pay to kick him in the head.

Speaker 7 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 That's actually better than most videos. Most of his clips, especially if it's like one he's just filmed on his phone to post to X, he's standing like he literally is in a straitjacket.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 So this is a little better.

Speaker 7 As he should be. Yeah.
So like many old libs, Keith Olberman should get a pass for his New York subway vagrant behavior due to the obvious side effects of multiple booster shots.

Speaker 7 Well, this is a double callback to what we were talking about earlier. Okay.
Like many old libs, I have to guess how you would answer.

Speaker 7 Like many old libs, Olberman should get a pass for his crazy vagrant behavior due to the obvious side effects of multiple booster shots.

Speaker 7 Okay. I got a clear mind.

Speaker 6 Multiple booster shots

Speaker 6 in conjunction with TDS. I think those things go kind of hand in hand, though.

Speaker 6 Well.

Speaker 7 You would pay to kick him in the head, so you couldn't give him a pass.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 6 I can't give him a pass.

Speaker 7 Yeah, you can't.

Speaker 7 There's not. Do you remember, you are so young and vibrant.
Me, I'm an old man.

Speaker 7 Younger than Keith Hoberman, but I'm an old man.

Speaker 7 I remember as a boy when that lunatic had a show on MSNBC. And one of my closest friends in high school was a big lid, huge lid, and he loved him.

Speaker 7 So many Yankee game ones yelled, oh, I love you, Keith. You keep me sane.

Speaker 7 And this was long before the booster shots. And he was as crazy as he is today.

Speaker 6 Well, so,

Speaker 6 as you alluded to, didn't know much about Keith Olbermann prior to 2022, 2023. Just didn't,

Speaker 6 I don't think I was overly involved or immersed in the political sphere. I more so knew who Keith Olbermann was from my dad, who is one of those, oh, ESPN.

Speaker 7 Yes. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Radical ESPN watchers. Yes.
Until ESPN went like fully, fully insufferable. Like they've always been like, like,

Speaker 6 you know, but now it's

Speaker 6 beyond the peril.

Speaker 6 So I know who Keith Olbermann was from my dad.

Speaker 6 My dad loved him like a lot of

Speaker 6 sports people did. He was the guy.
And so to now hear my dad's perspective of like how this man has just totally gone off the rails clearly.

Speaker 6 Yeah, he doesn't get a pass from me. So I drink.

Speaker 7 You drink. I drink my water.
You drink guzzle that kind of feeling it. Riley.
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 7 I've never been the biggest ESPN viewer in the world. You're going to be shocked to believe.

Speaker 7 I'm not the biggest sports guy.

Speaker 6 What's your sport if you have to pick?

Speaker 7 I have a sport. I do have a sport that I actually

Speaker 6 to play or to watch?

Speaker 7 To watch. Okay, okay.

Speaker 7 Sweet Riley.

Speaker 6 You're like a pickleball guy.

Speaker 7 I play history pickleball.

Speaker 7 I love a good game of gin rummy. Does that count? Yeah.
I did play a sport for eight years. I played little league baseball.
That's intense.

Speaker 7 And now I did not hit the ball a lot, but I had a very good on-base percentage because, like Don Baylor in the 70s, I would lean into pitches.

Speaker 6 So you're getting hit in the elbow.

Speaker 7 Yeah, elbow, ribs, wherever it was. Oh, I wouldn't be big.
Give you a little like a stitch mark.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 7 It's cool.

Speaker 7 Yeah, cool, man. I'd get on base.
I wasn't a good bass runner, though, so it was pointless.

Speaker 6 You look fast. You look like you'd be like the quick one they, like your pinch runner they put out there.

Speaker 7 Looks

Speaker 7 are sometimes deceiving.

Speaker 7 But I've channeled all my sports love

Speaker 7 into

Speaker 7 trans male swimming. No, I'm kidding.

Speaker 7 It's all into baseball, and it's all into the Yankees. Okay.

Speaker 7 I have a normal amount of sports love, but it's all channeled into one. So I never watch DSPN.
I don't need ESPN. I'll listen to Paul O'Neill on DS Network.

Speaker 6 Do you want to know who my celebrity crush is? Who? Dansby Swanson. He plays for the Cubs.
Do you know who he is?

Speaker 7 Wow, I know.

Speaker 6 He's my celebrity crush.

Speaker 7 He is. I don't, yeah, I don't know.
I love him.

Speaker 6 Wow. He played at Vanderbilt.
And then he went to the Braves, and now he's with the Cubs.

Speaker 7 What is your husband thinking about this?

Speaker 6 Well, my husband kind of looks like him.

Speaker 6 That's good. Yeah, hopefully that makes him feel good.

Speaker 7 It's like my wife's celebrity crush is Denzel. Oh, you guys look just like totally fine.

Speaker 6 No, y'all are like twins.

Speaker 6 If he was sitting here, I say, who's the real Michael?

Speaker 7 Who do I? Yeah, that's good.

Speaker 7 Okay. My turn.
You're up.

Speaker 6 Okay.

Speaker 6 Should the federal government pay for maternity leave? Ooh, this feels testy. How does it work now? I guess companies, obviously, your employer pays.

Speaker 7 Yeah. Right?

Speaker 6 You know, this is something I truthfully don't feel like I know a ton about, which is funny given I'm seven months pregnant.

Speaker 7 You better figure out.

Speaker 6 When you go on maternity leave, is it like a national policy or is it a policy that your workplace,

Speaker 6 I guess obviously, it's a policy your employer puts into place of how much time you get off.

Speaker 7 But if your employer is at Cheapskate, the way they get away with it is they have you file for short-term disability. Okay.

Speaker 7 And that, so you get some of your salary, but it's not, you wouldn't really call that maternity leave. Like in France, you get 16 years or something, I think, off the bus.

Speaker 6 It really is crazy. Switzerland, I do think it's like a full year.
Yeah. You don't have to work.
Even paternity leave, like the dads get.

Speaker 7 Should there be.

Speaker 7 Okay, wait.

Speaker 6 So I'm guessing how you feel.

Speaker 7 She got it wrong.

Speaker 7 You know why you would have gotten it.

Speaker 6 I thought you were going to be of the mind that.

Speaker 7 These companies got to take

Speaker 7 care of it.

Speaker 6 Like, why would the American people pay for that?

Speaker 7 I'll tell you why. Okay.
One, yeah, I think there are a bunch of problems with a federal maternity leave policy. It would violate subsidiarity.
It would create all sorts of moral hazards.

Speaker 7 It would be a big problem. So there are other better ways to do it.
Now, I do sort of support about 18 years of maternity leave for women.

Speaker 7 I think it's probably, that's like generally a better lifestyle. But

Speaker 7 the reason that I would support a family policy at the national level like this is because

Speaker 7 basically the only policy that matters right now is getting people to have more kids.

Speaker 6 That's fully in line with the messaging of

Speaker 7 Elon and

Speaker 7 Super Super Super Should be seven

Speaker 6 15 or 14 whatever.

Speaker 7 That's great. That's great.
We should also have

Speaker 7 marriage

Speaker 7 incentives and things like that too.

Speaker 6 But don't you think that creates a lot of room for people to totally abuse

Speaker 7 if they get married? Look, I don't want some welfare queen

Speaker 7 daddies, yeah. Well, that's that's we should get married.
Okay. We should redefine marriage to be what it is, which is not like three dudes and a billy goat.
It's like a man and a woman. Billy?

Speaker 7 And it's very confusing.

Speaker 7 I know, I know.

Speaker 7 But I would be willing, every dollar that we waste on, I don't know, the NIH or give to some foreign country, if we just paid that to women to get married and spit out as many kids as possible, I would be all for it.

Speaker 6 That would require the cutting of those funds, though, and there's no chance. But

Speaker 6 yes, in a perfect world.

Speaker 7 We've got to get Elon back in, who's very pronatal, so he might come back for this cause, cut out all that waste, fraud and abuse, whatever. But look, there's always more money in the banana stand.

Speaker 7 We're the global empire. We can find the money.
It is so many of the problems that we deal with. Migration.
The excuse for mass migration. is, well, we need Americans to fill these jobs.

Speaker 7 We need people to sustain the entitlement programs. We need all these excuses.

Speaker 7 You just have to get people to have kids so any way that you do that promoting religion publicly uh limiting contraception banning abortion uh turning porn off you know banning porn uh make redefining marriage making divorce hard doing like check whatever the boxes are people need to spit out kids and that's why Riley I want to thank you for doing your patriotic

Speaker 6 my service to America

Speaker 6 That's so funny.

Speaker 7 Can you tell the people, it's not so bad.

Speaker 6 Having a kid? No, I've had, I really have. truthfully.
Maybe I'm one of those annoying people that, like,

Speaker 6 I mean, most women I talk to, they're like, you're so lucky. But truthfully, bottom of my heart, it has been like a breeze thus far.

Speaker 7 That's because you're super fit. That's the only reason.

Speaker 6 I don't know about super fit anymore.

Speaker 6 I think at one point,

Speaker 6 I'm hoping it all mounts back.

Speaker 7 You know, one of the things that I'm... How far do you run in the morning?

Speaker 6 This morning, I ran eight miles.

Speaker 7 I watched eight mile one time. That's the closest I ever came to run eight miles.
I got watched it.

Speaker 6 Started at like 4.45 this morning because I try and beat the heat. I'm so used to waking up so early because of swimming.
We practice it, you know,

Speaker 6 you're in the water at 5 a.m. So I'm like classically conditioned at this point and I think for the rest of my life, which is actually incredibly frustrating, to wake up like ridiculously early.

Speaker 6 Hopefully that sets me up well for motherhood.

Speaker 7 That will. That will.

Speaker 6 So started running around 445 ran about eight miles tried to get out in front of it before the sun before the heat you can't beat it here in nashville unfortunately so did that then i went and lifted

Speaker 6 um me and my i i'm i'm like have the coolest family ever like i'm so blessed to have the family that i do we all live here we all are super close to each other all my siblings so It's super fun because me, my mom, my dad, my older sister, my younger sister, my grandma, we work out together every single day.

Speaker 7 Your grandma? Yes, yes. It's so, I hate to make it all about me.

Speaker 7 That makes me feel so bad. Well, that your grand, do you know the last time I worked out

Speaker 6 such like a dopamine release, no? It was,

Speaker 7 I want to say the Obama administration, there's a chance it was early Trump won. Yeah, I know, like the Ford administration.

Speaker 7 Your grandma,

Speaker 7 she's a beast. A woman, a lady doesn't.
70?

Speaker 6 70?

Speaker 7 Yeah. And she's just out there.

Speaker 6 Yeah, she is. We just went to Denver,

Speaker 6 you know, 7,000-ish feet up, and we're hiking together, and she's just a rock star. So I'm very fortunate to have the family I do.
So we'll work out all that to say.

Speaker 6 Typically, we work out in the mornings, but I think tonight, me and my little sister, and my dad are going to work out together.

Speaker 7 And your great-grandmother.

Speaker 6 And my great-grandmother.

Speaker 7 And your great-great-grandmother. Yes, exactly.
That's true.

Speaker 7 If I were pregnant, if I could become pregnant, if I were a seahorse, I would be on bed rest from the first trimester.

Speaker 6 Well, this is why.

Speaker 7 I'm undercutting my pronatalists.

Speaker 6 My husband said to me actually the other day, he was like, women are just so inefficient. Like, if I was pregnant, I would pop this baby out in two months.

Speaker 6 Like, can't you just be a little more efficient with it? I'm like, yeah, sorry, let me just try a little harder.

Speaker 7 Wow. Okay.
So.

Speaker 7 Do you trust your dentist when he says root canals and fluoride are safe, or do you think he's part of Big Tooth?

Speaker 7 Big Tooth.

Speaker 7 I like this. You got to take on the.

Speaker 6 So I'm guessing what you say?

Speaker 7 No, I'm guessing what you would say. Oh.
Do you trust your dentist when he says root canals? Departed.

Speaker 7 We need to take on big tooth. Big tooth.

Speaker 6 There's like a big everything. Big grocery.

Speaker 7 Mm-hmm. Big.

Speaker 7 You know, St. Augustine writes about, I think in City of God, that he was walking along the beach and came across a molar tooth, the size of some 50 or 100 human molar tooths.

Speaker 7 And he felt it was the tooth of a giant. Okay.
That's the only big tooth I had considered. Big tooth.
Yes. It's like big foot.

Speaker 7 Big tooth.

Speaker 7 Do you trust your dentist?

Speaker 6 I know my answer.

Speaker 7 Yes.

Speaker 7 I said yes. Yeah, of course.
Wow, that was you trying to psych me out though.

Speaker 6 Did I? Yeah, that was you.

Speaker 6 So prior to

Speaker 6 the infamous race with the man,

Speaker 6 I was in dental school to be an endodontist. That's right.
Yes. I remember that.
Yes. So

Speaker 6 maybe this will make some of the crunchy people and some of the, you know, like super maha people

Speaker 6 angry. But I mean, we've been using toothpaste with fluoride, mouthwash with fluoride.
When you go to the dentist, they put that stuff on your teeth. They put fluoride on your teeth.

Speaker 6 Like we've been doing that for, I mean, years.

Speaker 6 I'm of the mind that

Speaker 6 I don't believe in big tooth.

Speaker 7 No. No.
Only

Speaker 7 appropriately sized tooth. Yeah.

Speaker 6 I don't believe in big tooth. Mediaite.

Speaker 7 I don't believe in big tooth, Riley Gaines. Wow.

Speaker 6 And I will kick an orphan. Yeah, in the head.

Speaker 7 In the head. In the head.
Knock out his tooth, maybe. Yes.
Wow.

Speaker 7 I remember that you were in dental school because I have a very good friend here who saw you when you first came to prominence and said, Michael, do you know Riley Gaines? I said, yeah.

Speaker 6 I need to know whose accent this is.

Speaker 7 Yeah,

Speaker 7 it's very southern. It could be anyone in Nashville.
He said, but you know, a gentleman of a certain age. Do you know Riley Gaines?

Speaker 7 Yeah, I do. He goes, well, she,

Speaker 7 I was listening to her speak, and she said she was going to be a dentist, but she should not be a dentist.

Speaker 7 She's doing something much more important, and she's on her own path, and she's very, very beautiful. I was like, okay, well, hold on.
Hold on.

Speaker 7 I don't know if I'm introducing you at any point to Riley Gaines. But I remember, I thought, that's so funny.
You were on this path.

Speaker 7 You were going to, and then it was a complete 90.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 7 so I can get a root canal. I just recently heard about this the root canals give you the plague all sorts of is that true

Speaker 7 Who knows they come up

Speaker 6 feels like new things every single day But the fluoride thing like like what has

Speaker 6 the amount of times that I've gone to the dentist because I have a gum that is a little exposed on my back mole or whatever it is

Speaker 6 no cavity present, but just a little receded gum and they put fluoride on it, it feels better.

Speaker 6 And

Speaker 6 I'm not of the mind to necessarily question that or believe it's giving me bad health. I'm seven months pregnant.
I feel great.

Speaker 7 You ran. You ran eight miles with M ⁇ M this morning.
Exactly. Yeah, that's true.
Exactly. Well, what about, hold on, you hedged on the root canal.
I just heard about it.

Speaker 7 I never, I luckily haven't had one yet, but I think I'm close on a tooth. And

Speaker 7 I'd never heard that root canals, you know, turn the frog scared or whatever.

Speaker 6 Well, I think anytime you're getting to the the nerve which has of course connections with your bloodstream and all the the stuff you're risking disease infection is it okay if I get my wisdom teeth out do you still have them I know it's I should have all four of them all of them wow I oh and they're all kind of crowding my mouth and do you feel like your teeth are shifting they are shifting and I wear my retainer every night I'm giving a lot of juice right now I know

Speaker 6 they are they're shifting and it was annoying like one kind of moved a little and I said I gotta get them out do you feel it will not be as fun to recover now if you did it when you were like 14?

Speaker 7 Yeah, they told me that. I, yeah.

Speaker 6 I got my bottom two out. Okay.
But I didn't get my top two.

Speaker 7 I heard you got it. If you get the one done, then you don't want tooth on skin or whatever.

Speaker 7 That's fake news.

Speaker 6 Do you have skin in your mouth? I don't know.

Speaker 7 I don't know. Or whatever.
I don't know what gums are made of. I don't like

Speaker 7 plastic. I don't.
Dermis. Wait.

Speaker 7 Hold on. Can I get away with only getting like two of my teeth out?

Speaker 6 I guess. I did.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 6 I actually did my bottom ones. Wow.
I didn't need my top ones.

Speaker 7 I said I'm going to get my teeth out on a Friday. I'm going to do my show on a Monday.

Speaker 6 You'd be puffy. I'll be puffy.
You'd be puffy. I think you could do it, though.

Speaker 7 Thanks.

Speaker 6 Yeah. Because all those years of Little League

Speaker 6 prepared you. It did.

Speaker 7 It prepared me. It prepared me to be mocked and made fun of.

Speaker 7 You're right. You know, you've heard me talk about balance of nature many times before.

Speaker 7 That's because balance of nature, fruits, and veggies, is the most convenient way to get whole fruits and vegetables daily, especially if you're focused on creating a healthier, happier lifestyle.

Speaker 7 Nature is pretty good at giving us the nutrients that we need through our fruits and veggies.

Speaker 7 So balance of nature takes fruits and veggies, freeze-dries them, turns them into a powder, and then puts them into a capsule.

Speaker 7 You take your fruits and veggies capsules every day, and then your body knows what to do with them. Balance of nature is just one ingredient of a balanced lifestyle.

Speaker 7 No intention to replace a healthy diet, exercise, sleep, or any other healthy habits, of which I have many in abundance. It is intended to be used in concert with those other healthy habits.

Speaker 7 Look at me. Look at me as a paragon, not only of health and physical stamina, but if you don't believe that, I'm friends with Riley Gaines, who is.

The rapid fire round.

Speaker 6 Is it?

Speaker 6 So it's just like quick now.

Speaker 6 Red lights. That feels like, okay, so

Speaker 6 I'm going to read these

Speaker 6 all at once. Is that what's happening? I think.

Speaker 7 You're going to read them, then we're going to answer, then you're going to keep reading. We're not going to talk.
Basically, it's just a way for Davies to tell me to shut up.

Speaker 7 He's just shut, and we're going to do it really fast.

Speaker 6 Okay, I'm thinking about my answer before I'm reading it. Okay, ready?

Speaker 6 Well, I need to think about your answer.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 7 Ready?

Speaker 6 Is Will Smith a closet homosexual?

Speaker 7 Correct. No, he's probably like, he might have done weird stuff.

Speaker 6 He slapped Chris Rock in the face, right?

Speaker 7 Yeah. No, he might have done weird stuff with guys.
I don't know. I don't know yes or no on that.
But he's definitely done weird stuff with girls too.

Speaker 6 Did you see he has a new song out? It's called Pretty Girls.

Speaker 7 I saw that. You should watch the video.
I know I did.

Speaker 6 We should insert a clip of the video right here.

Speaker 7 It's kind of like the will doth protest too much, methinks.

Speaker 6 Yeah, definitely. Straight.
Is there a concerted effort in the expert community to discredit historical evidence of a world flood to delegitimize the biblical account? I need to read that again.

Speaker 6 If you want me to read that again. Please.
Is there a concerted effort in the expert, it's in quotes, community to discredit historical evidence of a world flood to delegitimize the biblical account?

Speaker 7 Wrong, but this is a little bit of a cute answer.

Speaker 6 Wrong as in, I got your answer wrong.

Speaker 7 You got my answer wrong.

Speaker 7 It's not a concerted effort. Okay.
In the sense that there's no grand conspiracy to keep it down.

Speaker 7 It's just the miasma of liberalism and materialism is just impelling all of these people to deny what obviously occurred. But

Speaker 7 I don't think they talk to each other. I just think it kind of happens.

Speaker 6 So you were hung up on that word concerted.

Speaker 7 Concerted.

Speaker 6 I didn't even

Speaker 6 really look at that word.

Speaker 6 I was just like, yes, I do think there are people doing this. Okay, interesting.
Okay.

Speaker 6 Is sunscreen to blame for the spike in skin cancer that began in the 1970s when it became popular in the United States?

Speaker 7 Got it wrong. Yes, it is.

Speaker 7 You know why I think that? I wouldn't have said that a year ago. Okay.
Because sweet little Elisa, my beloved bride. Okay.
is

Speaker 7 she got into all this stuff and now she makes us get the chalk sunscreen and she makes me wear the beef tallow deodorant which is $22 a can or jar or whatever it is and I thought it was all ridiculous

Speaker 7 I don't know man that aluminum but what changed your mind like do you know someone who got skin cancer because of sunscreen no my wife has just propagandized me so much now and and I'll tell you what she she got but does she know someone no no there's no like direct evidence of any of this it's all kind of like crunchy gobbledygook but big sunscreen this is big sunscreen

Speaker 7 big skin big dermis yeah it

Speaker 7 the thing that convinced me

Speaker 7 was the first crunchy shot across the bow was the seed oils.

Speaker 7 And she said, if you stop eating seed oils, you won't get as much of a sunburn. Now, I'm a rather dark guy for a white guy, but I would burn.
I'd burn a lot, especially as a teenager in my 20s.

Speaker 7 I burned a lot, even though I'd get dark. And then Elisa cuts out the seed oils.

Speaker 7 I don't really get sunburns anymore. I thought, okay, well,

Speaker 7 if the seed oils have fallen, if the crunchy weirdos are right about the seed oils,

Speaker 6 they could be right about other stuff.

Speaker 7 About the aluminum

Speaker 7 in the

Speaker 7 deodorant and the sunscreen.

Speaker 6 Interesting.

Speaker 7 Is there aluminum in sunscreen? I don't know.

Speaker 7 I think I know that.

Speaker 6 I think so.

Speaker 7 Yeah, sure.

Speaker 6 I have a hard time even looking into all that stuff, truthfully, because I think it's more so I don't want it. Like, it's ignorance is bliss for me.

Speaker 7 It's like the red pill and the blue pill. Yeah, it's like.
Because if you you take the red pill on this stuff,

Speaker 7 your household costs are going to increase about

Speaker 6 eightfold. It's really, really hard to implement.

Speaker 7 It's so,

Speaker 7 it's so expensive

Speaker 7 that I need to do a podcast so that I can be sponsored by Vandi Crisps so that I can get delicious potato chips without seed oils. I hope they're watching this.
I know. I hope they're, as a freebie.

Speaker 7 That's a freebie, but I'll evangelize that product all day.

Speaker 7 You have to.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 7 But this is why and this is this is how the whole society has collapsed and we say well it's a little cheaper. Well we'll drive okay we'll import the game.

Speaker 6 I do fall victim to that.

Speaker 7 Yeah of course. I do.
I'll tick GDP up. Oh we won't have kids because we can

Speaker 7 spend money on this and that and that's cheaper and this and then this.

Speaker 6 But my thing is like if that's the mindset you have everything could cause cancer. Everything.
Like if you if if you're going to go there

Speaker 6 you would live a pretty what I would believe to be a

Speaker 6 pretty miserable life if you restrict yourself from everything, which that's effectively what you would be doing.

Speaker 7 I don't wear the,

Speaker 7 well, if I'm with my wife, I don't wear the modern sunscreen. I wear whatever goop she gives me.

Speaker 7 I don't use the modern deodorants. I use the whatever goop she gives me.

Speaker 6 That's why you smell bad.

Speaker 7 That's why I smell.

Speaker 7 I'm kidding. Do you know why I smell bad? Because of the flip side.

Speaker 7 And I actually think

Speaker 7 it's a great smell, but some disagree. I own a cigar company.

Speaker 7 I own, so I won't put the D, or whatever, the sunscreen on

Speaker 7 because of the risks of cancer. I own a cigar company.
I smoke a billion cigars a day.

Speaker 6 Like, everyone has their vice. If my vice is going to be.

Speaker 7 I don't think cigars are a vice, by the way, but that's a conversation for another time.

Speaker 6 If my vice is energy drinks. Yeah.
I love them.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 6 I drink at least one a day. What's your poison? What do you mean? Even

Speaker 6 Alani. Have you ever heard of that?

Speaker 7 I've never even heard of that. It's like a total marketing.

Speaker 6 No, not really. It's like, I mean, you can get it at a gas station.
It's just a total marketing thing, I think, that especially appeals to women because the cans are so cute.

Speaker 6 And they get me. Like, I understand.
Like, I'm an influencer's dream. I'm basically begging you to influence me.
Yeah, yeah. Like, I will buy that product.

Speaker 7 Smoke cigars?

Speaker 7 Does your kid want

Speaker 7 a second-hand cigar?

Speaker 6 That's what she's been saying to me. Yeah.

Speaker 7 A mother knows.

Speaker 7 A mother knows.

Speaker 6 So everyone has a vice.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 6 I'm not going to let mine be sunscreen.

Speaker 6 Aluminum. Aluminium.

Speaker 7 Give me a box of Mayflowers so I can get your one.

Speaker 7 This is the rapid fire round. That's why the red light is on.

Speaker 7 As long as Libby Dunn doesn't join OnlyFans, she's a good example of how female athletes should conduct themselves.

Speaker 6 Well, as long as,

Speaker 6 like given what she's already done, or is it just like that's the only standard? Read it one more time.

Speaker 7 As long as Libby Dunn does not join OnlyFans,

Speaker 7 she is a good example of how female athletes should conduct themselves.

Speaker 6 I feel pretty torn on this.

Speaker 7 You've answered.

Speaker 7 Yes.

Speaker 7 I said yes. Yeah, because you weren't going to throw shade.
I've only heard of Libby Dunn in the context of the TikTok Riz Party and Skibbity Toilet. And I didn't know who she was until today.

Speaker 7 And she popped up on my Twitter, and I didn't know she was even a real person.

Speaker 7 But... And she's not on OnlyFans.

Speaker 6 No. Okay, well, she's...
Incredibly fit, very fit. She's beautiful.
She's done a fantastic job of marketing herself and her abilities and profiting off that, which I can respect.

Speaker 6 I think there are some things that she does that I'm like, maybe questionable.

Speaker 7 What is it? I don't care that this is rapid fire. I want the tea.
I don't care if it's rapid fire.

Speaker 6 Well, I think a lot of her content is very like revealing.

Speaker 6 But

Speaker 6 I think, again, I approach that a little different than most conservatives do, given that I played a sport where, I mean, you're essentially half naked all of the time. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 Like to me, a man in a Speedo,

Speaker 6 like it's, I'm not talking about San Francisco Pride, though.

Speaker 6 That's a little different, especially when kids are around, but like, it's, I think I'm a little more desensitized or, or, yeah, like, to me, that's like whatever, it's kind of standard.

Speaker 6 But I do think she's a bit, can be a bit revealing.

Speaker 6 She's like dating this guy now.

Speaker 6 My speculation is they don't actually like each other at all. Paul Skeens.

Speaker 7 Paul Skeens? How, who would you like to know? I don't think know Paul? Who is Paul Skeens?

Speaker 6 You're the baseball guy.

Speaker 7 He's the...

Speaker 7 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 So he played baseball at LSU. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 Now he's in the big leagues and all this. Rookie of the year, all this stuff.

Speaker 7 That's interesting. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 I don't think they actually like each other.

Speaker 7 How old is she?

Speaker 6 My age, maybe. She is, okay.
Maybe younger than me, a year younger.

Speaker 7 Wow.

Speaker 6 But I think as a whole,

Speaker 6 She's done a pretty good job of maintaining her image and being somewhat of a role model to young girls.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 7 I'm glad to hear it. Mostly because I wear a speedo around the Daily Wire.
Yeah.

Speaker 6 So I'm glad that no, like it would be, if I saw that, I would just be like, oh,

Speaker 6 there's Denzel.

Speaker 6 My cow, there he is.

Speaker 7 What's he doing here? Yeah, I loved you in training day. Okay, the second rapid fire question.
We're moving too fast. Is homosexuality more nature than nurture?

Speaker 6 More nature than nurture.

Speaker 7 What would you say?

Speaker 6 Wait, more?

Speaker 7 More nature than nurture. They're born this way more than, you know, they had an absent father and an overbearing mother.

Speaker 7 You're going to say yes. I say no.
I got it wrong. I mean, I thought you were going to be a little more moderate and live on it.
No. Yeah, you say it's nurture.

Speaker 6 No, I'm very much of the mindset of

Speaker 6 it is interesting, this conversation. And

Speaker 6 I've allowed my brain to go there several times of thinking, you know, what does this really look like? Because you can't deny there are some like little kids who super duper duper feminine.

Speaker 7 Little Liberace.

Speaker 6 Like little, like young, like, you can just tell they're going to be gay when they're older. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 That was like when Ben Davies was a kid.

Speaker 6 Yeah. Oh my gosh.
Is that the guy who messed up these questions?

Speaker 7 It is.

Speaker 7 That's him, actually. Yeah.

Speaker 6 So like

Speaker 6 it would be an interesting conversation to, like, to really look into and understand.

Speaker 6 But I'm more of the mindset, I think, especially today, seeing the social contagion of it, that aspect of it, I'm way more of the mindset that it is more of nurture than that.

Speaker 7 Yeah, there's a huge social contagion, without question. And then guys in prison, you know, do weird stuff.
So, obviously, that's true. The only thing that has kind of

Speaker 7 I don't, I'm not saying there's a gay gene necessarily or anything, but that has kind of nature-pilled me on those who who are little light in the loafers, is have you, there's some study that says, if you got your hand right here like this, right?

Speaker 7 So you see my finger

Speaker 7 is

Speaker 7 the ring to index finger ratio.

Speaker 6 So you see how

Speaker 7 we're straight, because your ring is bigger, is notably bigger than

Speaker 7 your index. It goes up higher.
For homosexuals,

Speaker 6 what would you do if you said this and mine were the same size?

Speaker 7 Well, I don't know if it applies to chicks, but that'd that'd be crazy if we found out you are a gay man.

Speaker 7 Will Thomas was right.

Speaker 7 So for a gay guy, if it's like

Speaker 7 if it's more even,

Speaker 7 put it like this.

Speaker 7 If they're even, apparently that's more likely for gay guys. The other thing is, for most guys, their part is like my part, which is on the left side of your head.
Okay. It goes down.

Speaker 7 For gay guys, they're much more likely to be on the right side of the head. Now, again, this doesn't mean that if you have these natural dispositions or something, but is a hair part really natural?

Speaker 6 You can change your hair part.

Speaker 7 There's a natural aspect to your part.

Speaker 6 Yeah, but like I think back to me in sixth grade when the side part was everything.

Speaker 7 Did you have...

Speaker 6 Did you do that thing? Yeah, I had the side part.

Speaker 7 Did you do the thing those girls did that was so annoying where they

Speaker 7 like there was this one year, I think it was 2013, where every girl decided to just shave off half their head. Okay.
You remember that thing?

Speaker 6 Me in sixth grade was definitely not doing that, but there were some people, even at my,

Speaker 6 I mean, I would say a pretty conservative public school here in Tennessee

Speaker 7 Who definitely did wow.

Speaker 6 It was a thing. It was like that was like the Tumblr era.
Yeah. You know, like the yeah, definitely like the aesthetic of it.

Speaker 7 I was like the Visco guy. I'm a

Speaker 7 Visco. I heard about that.

Speaker 6 You say were and then am. So are you

Speaker 7 currently? I found out about that word. I had a babysitter, not like it was for my kids.
And this, she said something about Visco, I guess, or whatever. I didn't know what that was.

Speaker 7 I still don't really know what that is, but I'm that. I want to be that.
It seems hip and cool. Yeah, it is.
I found out my natural part is over here because I'm a big Fanouk. No, I'm kidding.

Speaker 7 It is on the left, but it's a little bit more,

Speaker 7 it's a little more center because, so if I were left to my own natural devices, I'd look more like a guy from the 90s. Okay.
You know, that's the part. Yeah, like the, yeah.

Speaker 7 But if you got your part over here.

Speaker 6 See, so you can change your part.

Speaker 7 Yeah, but not, I can change it from like, you know, Gary Cooper to Dean Martin. I can't change it from Gary Cooper to Rock Hudson.

Speaker 7 So my question is for the people who wear their fingers or whatever, you know, it's like they got the even fingers and the part on the right.

Speaker 6 This guy's not like that. I thought that was more so of like

Speaker 6 where

Speaker 6 you descended from. Like Romans have more of a certain type of, I think it's more specifically like feet and toes.
Like Egyptian, you're much more like...

Speaker 7 What do the Roman toes look like?

Speaker 6 I think the second one is longer,

Speaker 6 which is standard for

Speaker 7 most people.

Speaker 6 But like Egyptian is very much slanted all the way. Something is like, yeah.
So I thought it was more so of like your descent.

Speaker 7 I want to get into phrenology, like head sizes as they pertain to intelligence.

Speaker 7 But that, I don't know if we're allowed to do that on YouTube. We'll get maybe a later.
Okay, so we're in the rapid fire round. You know that.

Speaker 7 We're in a rapid fire round. Okay.

Speaker 7 The only thing conservatives should ever infight about is which month is the best in the conservative dad's real women of America calendar.

Speaker 6 I'm so excited to talk about this, even though it's rough.

Speaker 7 Were you in that one?

Speaker 6 Yes, and it was the biggest mistake I've ever made in my life.

Speaker 7 Oh, all right, then I want Elda. That actually gives me good information about this.
Okay, so the only thing that should ever, you're gonna say no.

Speaker 6 Yes, I'm gonna say no. You're gonna say no, okay.

Speaker 7 Okay. I remember that, but I didn't.

Speaker 6 No problem, like

Speaker 6 I'm a very self-aware person in general.

Speaker 6 The way this was approached to me, actually, this is kind of like a full circle moment, going back to that first question about the charity.

Speaker 6 The way this was approached to me were the proceeds of this, it was going to be a very family-friendly thing.

Speaker 7 And the proceeds,

Speaker 6 like full circle, and the proceeds of this would go to a charity like of my choosing.

Speaker 7 First of all, for those who haven't seen it, it's not, it wasn't like Playboy. No, it wasn't fully.

Speaker 6 But it still is not a good representation of myself.

Speaker 6 And this even is like looping back in with the whole Libby Dunn thing.

Speaker 6 This still is not a good representation of just me in general, how I conduct myself, whether it is on a public platform, whether it's in my personal life. Like it just wasn't.

Speaker 6 But again, think back, this was probably in,

Speaker 6 I don't know what year.

Speaker 7 I mean, it was a while ago. A while ago.
Because this guy did a beer, too. He was like a kind of

Speaker 6 cool guy conservative. Even not being pregnant.
Like, I just am not a drinker. Like, I don't, like,

Speaker 6 I'm just, I, I just, I'm not.

Speaker 6 Whatever. I kind of got sucked into this.

Speaker 7 So you're saying you regret, because, look.

Speaker 6 and everyone was, like, the people who were in this were like totally like defending it. People like Ashley St.
Clair, which we've seen now how that has all turned out.

Speaker 7 That's also full circle on the Elon.

Speaker 6 No, like, this is all, like, it's all making sense. So the people don't even have to watch the full thing, just listen to this.

Speaker 7 This was actually very well written, Mr. Davies.
This is rehired, by the way. Wow, yeah.
Okay.

Speaker 6 So they were all defending it. They were all like defending it.
And I was the only one to,

Speaker 6 for the most part, I just stayed pretty like silent about it. And they were trying to loot me in on their side and defend it.
I'm like, I can't even defend myself here.

Speaker 6 I deserve the slander.

Speaker 7 Look, I take it.

Speaker 7 That's a great attitude, Deb. Because, look,

Speaker 7 in the grand scheme of things,

Speaker 7 you're a very nice-looking young lady.

Speaker 7 You were not a mother. You were a surrender in a swimsuit.

Speaker 6 Like, to me, that wasn't that bad.

Speaker 7 It's not, it wasn't, you weren't

Speaker 7 on OnlyFans. No.

Speaker 7 But.

Speaker 7 People can't,

Speaker 7 people really struggle to admit that they have done anything that they regret. Not even anything wrong necessarily.
Even just anything they regret.

Speaker 6 No, I regret this.

Speaker 7 And people struggle with that, and people will form whole ideologies to justify a thing that they deep down do actually kind of regret.

Speaker 7 And

Speaker 7 it takes a lot of maturity.

Speaker 6 You're a very self-aware person.

Speaker 7 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 And I knew it at the time, too. That was a good thing.

Speaker 7 It didn't come.

Speaker 7 Was it that salacious? I don't know. No.

Speaker 6 No, it wasn't. I mean, no.

Speaker 7 It wasn't. You just think the whole, yeah, I agree that whenever people try to make conservatism cool, like it's like, you know, I'm not a regular mom.
I'm a cool mom.

Speaker 7 You know, I'm a cool conservative. I just think, no.
No. There's nothing.
Conservatism is not cool.

Speaker 6 That's why we've lost every inch of the public square. Yeah.
Yeah. I mean, think like

Speaker 6 media, entertainment, Hollywood,

Speaker 6 academia. I mean, like, virtually

Speaker 6 every inch of the public square.

Speaker 7 Because we're trying to, because we're like, oh, man, I'm going to be cool. Because there'd be

Speaker 7 Yeah. Yeah.
But we're not cool.

Speaker 7 The only way to gain cultural currency is to just kind of know what you are and do that thing very well. Totally.
Do that in a rational, excellent, virtuous way.

Speaker 7 But to just be like, hey, hey, I'm not one of those stodgy conservatives. I'm the, I'm a hip conservative.
Just like, shot.

Speaker 6 Yeah, no.

Speaker 7 No, I'm not.

Speaker 6 And for you, your thing you do really well is Little League.

Speaker 7 Little league. That's the thing.

Speaker 6 You should start a little league league for adults.

Speaker 7 I would still, you know, the sad thing? I would still strike out all the time.

Speaker 7 They invited me.

Speaker 7 I was invited to do a celebrity. The Folds of Honor.
That was the one.

Speaker 6 Yeah. What were you doing? I was there.
I know.

Speaker 7 I thought, hold on. Am I, I said,

Speaker 7 am I a, what's the crazier part? That I'm a celebrity or that I'm a baseball player? I don't know what would be less, but they invited me. They said, well, you love baseball.
You should go.

Speaker 7 And I thought, I'm going to have horrifying flashbacks to that when I'm there it's like um

Speaker 7 what's the movie Sandlot say it would be San Lot what is the no bench warmers it would be the natural because I'd get shot probably yeah it would be what's my it would be major league yeah because I would become Charlie Sheen do a bunch of drugs beforehand yeah okay so now

Speaker 7 no you're up it's the final round

Speaker 6 I feel intimidated.

Speaker 7 The prompt will be read. We'll both lock in our answers and we'll move our glasses to yes yes or no to see if we can read each other's minds.
The round is worth double points.

Speaker 7 It could change everything.

Speaker 7 The score right now.

Speaker 7 Oh, no. Oh, no.
I get, no, Riley could still win, but the score is seven.

Speaker 7 A lot to a little? It's a lot to a little. It's Michael 4,

Speaker 7 Riley, negative 2.

Speaker 6 Well, if I get both of these right.

Speaker 7 Then you win.

Speaker 6 Okay. But you would have to get both wrong.

Speaker 7 That's true.

Speaker 7 Could happen. I'm clearing mine.
Okay.

Speaker 6 So I will move my glass to the corner.

Speaker 7 You're going to pick your answer on your pad, and then you're going to move my glass to how you think I would answer.

Speaker 7 You're going to pick your answer for what you think on your pad, and then you're going to move my glass to how you think I would answer.

Speaker 6 And you're going to lock it in. Same thing.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 6 The main reason evangelicals have grown their numbers and non-denominational churches keep growing by attracting those leaving mainline denominations is because all the worst Democrats claim to be Catholic.

Speaker 6 Okay, so I put mine on where I think.

Speaker 7 You put your. No, no, hold on.

Speaker 7 That was great. Did I ruin this?

Speaker 7 No, you made it. It was great.
You need to lock in your answer, and then I'm going to guess with your cup how you answer.

Speaker 7 And then you have to move my cup on how you think I would.

Speaker 6 Well, that just gave it away. Well, I mean.
Did you already lock in? I did. So you locked in what you said.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 6 I was tricking you because I know the rules the whole time.

Speaker 7 No. All right, hold on.
We're going to see how devious Riley is. Well,

Speaker 6 okay.

Speaker 7 Hold on, you haven't locked it yet.

Speaker 6 I don't even know if I fully read the question.

Speaker 7 You've got to lock. Don't you change your answer now.
Don't you? That would be so devious. It'd be like kicking an orphan in the head.

Speaker 6 I would never do that. No.
Except for $10 million.

Speaker 7 Yeah. Million now?

Speaker 6 No, billion. Million, okay.
Well, and million. I would do it for $10 million.

Speaker 7 And $10 million. And dollars.
And $10.

Speaker 6 You know what? I'm changing the rules of this game because we said we got to do that. The winner is who has has the least amount of points.

Speaker 6 Actually, so

Speaker 6 I win.

Speaker 7 I love winning.

Speaker 7 Okay, so hold on. You just answered.
Oh, now you got to move mine to how you think I would answer. That same prompt.

Speaker 6 I think you're saying no.

Speaker 7 Correct, correct. Okay, yes, I say no.
The surge in evangelicalism, I actually don't know if there is a surge right now, but the surge is driven by two things. Okay.

Speaker 7 One is

Speaker 7 the mainline going. Because there are a bunch of Dem Catholics.

Speaker 6 There's like Biden and all those guys. Well, I mean, I think there's bad conservative Catholics.

Speaker 7 Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, that's true.
That's also true. That's a separate issue.
But

Speaker 7 I think what's driven it is the mainline Protestants went completely lib, you know, like trans lesbian, bishopresses stuff.

Speaker 7 And divorced Catholics. Divorced Catholics become evangelical.

Speaker 7 Interesting. Yeah, because you can't.

Speaker 6 And there's a lot of that in the Catholic Church?

Speaker 7 There are divorce, because you're not allowed to divorce. So if you get divorced and civilly remarried, you can't have the sacraments.
And so I know

Speaker 7 I've seen Catholics get divorced and remarried and they become evangelical. Because they still want a religious thing.

Speaker 7 It's never a connection. But I think the main driver for evangelicalism is people who want to be Protestant.
but are just like, I can't be Episcopalian. No one's been an Episcopalian since like 1948.

Speaker 7 It's ridiculous. Right, right.
So I think that's it. Who knows? Maybe King Charles.

Speaker 7 Maybe you'll get King Charles. That's what it is.

Speaker 6 Yeah. The queen.
Long live Queenie. Yeah.

Speaker 7 Okay.

Speaker 7 Okay, so we both got him right.

Speaker 6 So that's just net zero then.

Speaker 7 That's a net zero.

Speaker 6 So no matter what happens here, I win.

Speaker 7 Because you laughed at least points.

Speaker 7 You make a great point. I love this.
Yeah, wow. This is so fun.
It doesn't even matter. We can throw this.
You're right, you're right. Why am I even playing anymore? It is

Speaker 7 disorderly and sets up near occasions of sin to have a bunch of hormone-filled dudes trained for hours in a pool alongside females in swimsuits.

Speaker 7 Hold on, do you, is this a point of a point of information? Okay.

Speaker 7 Because

Speaker 7 I wasn't on the swim team.

Speaker 7 Do the boys and the girls swim together?

Speaker 6 So it depends.

Speaker 6 At this meet, this national championship,

Speaker 6 it was only a women's meet. So it was only, there were only women at that meet except for one.

Speaker 6 So

Speaker 7 this is a fixed.

Speaker 6 But you mean like in practice?

Speaker 7 It's not in practice.

Speaker 6 We swam together in the mornings, but very much separate teams. Like even in terms of national ranking, like our women's team was always top 10, top 15.

Speaker 7 Yeah, no, I'm not saying, I'm just talking about in the pool. You guys are...

Speaker 6 We would, yes, but sometimes we would have different practices. But yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 7 You would. You would.
Wow, okay. So, okay, so the premise is fair.
It is disorderly and sets up near occasions of sin to have a bunch of hormone-filled dudes train for hours.

Speaker 6 Hormone-filled as in

Speaker 7 just brimming. Like virility.

Speaker 7 No, natural hormones. Not artificial hormones.
Not like Will Thomas stuff.

Speaker 6 So like testosterone. Like men.

Speaker 7 T, high T. Okay, okay, ready to do it.
High T one more time. It is disorderly.
Okay. And sets up near occasions of sin

Speaker 7 to have a bunch of high T giga chads in Speedo

Speaker 7 train for hours in a pool alongside slinky little ladies wearing bikinis.

Speaker 6 Put it like that.

Speaker 7 I gotta answer how you would answer.

Speaker 7 Okay. Well, I locked in my answer.
Thank you. He says you gotta lock in your answer.
As if I didn't do it. He could have seen it on camera.

Speaker 6 So I need to move yours

Speaker 6 to where

Speaker 6 I'm doing that based on the words.

Speaker 7 I had a little bit of a tell on this.

Speaker 6 So it felt like you were

Speaker 7 putting someone in a sense. It's disordered and sets up your occasions of sin.

Speaker 7 And you've got experience. You've seen it.

Speaker 7 You were there. You were there.
For me, I've just been to the beach.

Speaker 7 Yeah,

Speaker 7 yeah, obviously, right? It's crazy. This is the one, you know, in the 40s, they were like arresting women for wearing bikinis.
Right. And a somewhat unpopular view I have,

Speaker 7 they were probably right.

Speaker 6 I can't. Women can't wear bikinis.
No, they should.

Speaker 7 But men can. No, men should wear, no, you're right.
Men should wear like I'm not, I'm only 3% joking. Men should wear those 1920s like swim suits where it's like a shirt

Speaker 7 with pants and a top hat, you know, like they should, because it is crazy. It is crazy that I go to the beach.
And I actually, in my old age now, I try to avoid, you know, sins of the eyes and things.

Speaker 7 For sure. And so, and then I go to the beach and I'm looking at, I mean, it's

Speaker 7 crazy.

Speaker 6 No, I know. It is.
But most of the time, like,

Speaker 6 at least, I mean, I guess I approach this a little different as a woman, but most of the time it's not like,

Speaker 6 attractive women wearing revealing things. It's women who should absolutely

Speaker 6 not be wearing

Speaker 6 revealing. So it's more of like a repulsion,

Speaker 6 I would say.

Speaker 7 That's true. Most people,

Speaker 7 I'm not a man.

Speaker 7 Most people,

Speaker 7 I think is fair to say, don't really look good

Speaker 7 on naturel.

Speaker 7 But this is actually, this is the premise of lingerie and also of swimsuits and stuff, is actually if you conceal a little bit, strategic concealment actually makes one more attractive than if you were completely in your birthday suit.

Speaker 7 So like,

Speaker 7 I don't know.

Speaker 7 I don't want to.

Speaker 7 In France, there was a big issue about women wearing veils and stuff. Or the burkini, the burkini at the beach.
It's like a burqa bikini. Right.

Speaker 7 And I, there, I have plenty of criticisms of the Muslims and Islam.

Speaker 6 But you also have, on the other hand, in France, when they have these liberation rallies, totally topless women. Yeah.
Like.

Speaker 7 Who are often not the most scintillating? No. Some of them are, but many of them are.

Speaker 6 You see these videos and it's like

Speaker 7 a bit of

Speaker 6 a shirt on. Yeah, a bit of flab.

Speaker 7 Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Okay.

Speaker 6 I answered yes.

Speaker 7 You answered yes. So you,

Speaker 7 oh yes.

Speaker 6 We called it swimsest.

Speaker 6 Like it's it's a thing. Of course.
Like it's a known thing. Of course.
Where swimmers, you just

Speaker 6 I don't know if it's more so like,

Speaker 6 again, maybe being around them in that environment. Maybe it's the way your schedules line up.
I don't know what it is. Yeah.

Speaker 7 But

Speaker 6 it's called swim cess. Yeah.
Where swimmers just date other swimmers. Of course, yeah.
I mean, me,

Speaker 6 my husband swam at the University of Kentucky.

Speaker 6 I'm a victim to swim cesss. You are.
And I swore I wasn't.

Speaker 7 Which is legal in Tennessee.

Speaker 6 It's legal, not in other states, but in Tennessee.

Speaker 6 Yeah, no, that's why he came here.

Speaker 7 He wanted to be doing swim tests. You know, it's funny, even in college, I was buddies in high school.
I was buddies with athletes, a bunch of athletes, but not swimmers.

Speaker 7 Because it might be the schedule thing. I wasn't really that type of thing.

Speaker 6 I was six hours a day. So it was like, you don't really have time to meet other people.
Like if you're swimming 5 a.m.

Speaker 6 to 8 a.m., you go to class, you come back to the pool 1.30 to 4.30, you eat dinner with the swimmers. Like, it's kind of all you know.
So I think it's more so the schedule thing, but.

Speaker 7 and you're just in, yeah, you're in, you're all good looking, I would assume. You're in good shape at least.
Yeah. You're wearing slinky little garments.
Right.

Speaker 7 You're all, you know, brimming with testosterone. The blood's flowing.
Yes.

Speaker 7 Right. How do you...
Yeah. This is why co-education was a huge, huge mistake, which would be a topic for another time.
So I think that means

Speaker 7 I got many more points, so therefore you won. Yeah,

Speaker 7 I'm the winner.

Speaker 7 I love this game. It's very impressive.

Speaker 6 This is my favorite game I've ever played.

Speaker 7 You need to go check out Riley's content on Instagram at Riley G. Barker.

Speaker 7 Not Gaines. That was your old name.
That was the old name. That's called the maiden name.
Because Riley is a conservative, normal, sane woman. Riley G.
Barker.

Speaker 7 And you got to go watch her show on Outkick. Gaines for Girls.
I love a good pun. Check out this teaser.

Speaker 6 In just two tweets, Simone Biles basically tarnished her reputation to anyone with a shred of honesty, to anyone with a moral compass, and to anyone with an inherent innate desire to protect women, to fight for equal opportunity for both men and women, especially as it pertains to sport.

Speaker 6 So congratulations, Simone Biles.

Speaker 7 That looks quite like that, Nate.

Speaker 6 She,

Speaker 6 it was awesome because the time of this filming, there were two girls in Oregon who filed a lawsuit against the state of Oregon for their laws that allow boys to play in their sports.

Speaker 6 And their reason for doing it, they said this in a video that was posted today, was because of Simone Biles' disparaging comments to female athletes.

Speaker 6 They were like, that was kind of the final straw for us.

Speaker 6 So her...

Speaker 7 And she walked it back. Simone Biles had to walk it back.

Speaker 6 Yeah, but what good does that do when you've already, at that point, it's like a total Gavin Newsom move where you've just pissed off everyone?

Speaker 7 Yeah, yeah. But to me, though, I thought that was such a white pill because I thought, look, Simone Biles almost certainly did not change her opinion.
That was written by some PR team.

Speaker 7 By the GP team.

Speaker 7 Yeah, that's almost wrong.

Speaker 6 I saw that little dash in there. I know what that dash means.

Speaker 7 Yeah, it wasn't written by Grock because it wasn't in German. Exactly.
Yes.

Speaker 7 But

Speaker 7 it doesn't matter. Like when you have kids.
and the kid smacks the other kid and you say, hey, you say you're sorry. And the kid isn't sorry.

Speaker 7 But if you are an imposing enough patra familias, he'll say it anyway, even though he doesn't believe it. And that's half good.
That gets you halfway there. It's good enough.
It's good enough.

Speaker 7 And that's how I felt with Simone Biles. She made the apology, almost certainly not because she believed it, but because the culture now says the trans stuff is done.

Speaker 7 It's done, as far as I'm concerned.

Speaker 6 We won. Largely to thank you and all that.

Speaker 7 I take all credit for it. Walsh did nothing.

Speaker 7 I think it was all me. It was.
Yeah, you had nothing to do with it. No, your activism had nothing to do with it.

Speaker 6 It was because girls didn't want to play you in Little League.

Speaker 7 They would have destroyed. They would have destroyed me in Little League.

Speaker 6 It would have been awful. So it was suddenly trans movement done.

Speaker 7 Riley, congratulations on your

Speaker 7 improbable and impressive victory. Thank you.
See you next time on Yes or No.
