Triggernometry's Francis Foster on Rampant Conspiracy Theories
"Been having fascinating conversations offline in the last couple of days. About conspiracy theories. And you were saying some very interesting things, Francis. Help me out here, share a little summary of what we were discussing in terms of why we have this rampant conspiracy theory proclivity on both left and right. So whether it's the bio labs or Putin's a savior of Christianity, there seems to be a dearth of critical thought on left and right. Why a why are people so incapable of asking good questions and just instead they glom on to some spurious crazy ideas? Well, number one is this is particularly true in the UK. We don't teach critical thinking skills in the UK. We don't teach critical thinking skills to children. It's something that we consider unimportant, particularly in the UK when it comes to educating children. We teach to test. So it's very much spoon feeding. You spoon to teach somebody to pass the test. Exactly. So you spoon feed information to kids. You make sure that they cram as much as possible. They go into the test. They regurgitate said opinions, they get an a stole, be or whatever it is. The school looks great. The kid then moves on happy as Larry, and you go, well, what's the problem with that? Well, there's a very real problem with that because you're not teaching children to investigate. You're not teaching children to criticize and most importantly, you're not teaching children to think for themselves. That child will become an adult. And when that child becomes an adult, those that is going to be a very real problem because when they get information that is false or biased, they don't have the skills to investigate it for themselves and come to their own mind. And then there's the second part of it, which is, in the world of social media, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, we're all becoming far more narcissistic, because social media is all about yourself.

Konstantin Kisin Corrects the Record on the War in Ukraine
"The other things that you have established a kind of side career on of late sadly because of the events of the last 14 months, a Constantine is helping people understand what's going on in Russia and in Ukraine. Because you were born in the Soviet Union, correct? I was. And you're married to someone from Ukraine. And my mom is Ukrainian. And you have family in the Ukraine. And in Russia. Any Russia. So you become a commentator on these issues. And one of the most useful things you do is, which is like rule number one, you read the statements in Russian that are coming out of for example the Kremlin. You tell people, they might be spent to the left, they might be spent to the right, but this is exactly this is what Putin said, let's listen to that. What is perhaps give us a couple of things that are least well understood about the 14 months that we've witnessed, whether it's the reality in Kyiv, whether it's who Vladimir Putin is, what are the most incorrect conventional wisdoms that you have been trying to correct as a person from Russia with family in the Ukraine? Well, I think one of the things that I've been concerned about is the people in the west don't seem to understand that cultures are different. And so they look at what Russia is doing and they imagine themselves in that position and they think, well, this is what would make me invade a neighboring country. And so they have to make up things like Putin was provoked, Ukrainians and Nazis and all this stuff to make themselves understand what's actually happening because they can't conceive of an imperialist expansionist country like Russia. And a guy who's been in power, by the way, so as you know, since 19 99, so he sees himself as a successor to pizza the great, the man who built Russia as an empire. Not a Democrat. Surprisingly so. And so the people, the thing that people, I think, don't understand, is that it's quite possible for people in other parts of the world to think, you know, it is to my personal benefit to my glory. It is in my interest to do this. To

Triggernometry's Konstantin Kisin Decribes the Moment He Went Viral
"Launched a trigonometry and then there was a moment where with your bloody mindedness constantin, you made big news nationally. What was that triggering moment that got attention to you in the podcast? Well, what happened was shortly after we started the show, I was invited to do a comedy gig at a college, a small college in London, and they said that in order to perform. By the way, they asked me to raise money for charity. And they sent me a contract saying, we have a zero tolerance policy on racism, sexism, classism, ageism, ableism, homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, xenophobia islamophobia, anti religion. No, this is no skit. It became a skit pretty much. But these are the things they listed. Anti atheism, and it also said that all jokes must be respectful and kind. This was in writing. This is in writing. And you can't perform a comedy act unless you acquiesce. Unless you sign this. What did you do? And I just turned it down. I tweeted about it to what was about a thousand people at the time. And I think people were so shocked by what happened that it went super viral, and it went viral on the day in the our country when the prime minister of the leader of the country was nearly removed from office by her own party. That would be the equivalent of the Democrats impeaching nearly impeaching Joe Biden right now, and the second biggest story on CNN and Fox. About a comedian. Is this some media comedian no one's ever heard of from some tiny little college not doing the gig. So it showed us at the time that massive numbers of people now are concerned about what they can and can't say in the public space. And I

Bobby Burack: Racism Displayed by the Left to Black Americans
"Portion of those people had never been told, okay, see it. You're allowed to leave. No one's making you work here. If you don't like the way I'm running my company, then so be it. I think that that was shocking. But what you mentioned Chris Rock as well. Were they allowed to kick down the door because they're black, whereas if a white comedian is like a Louis C.K., had tried to do that, then they would have been shut down. Yeah, I think it was absolutely a great point there because I think by them doing it. See, this is why the left always talks so much about how the right is racist and I mean the most prevalent and known form of racism that I see in society right now is the way the left attacks black Americans who disagree. Look at what they do to justice clarence Thomas or Herschel Walker or Candace Owen because what that does is they're living contradictions to the entire message of the left being untrue. So when Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock attack, all identities from black to trans to white to straight, it contradicts the idea that the right is holding down black people and that woke ism is the savior for it that's prioritizing them. I think that's a great observation by you that it's even more effective when Chappelle and rock are pushing back against these ideas and these trends and patterns than it would be for someone like Russell Brand who is now doing it, but he came a bit late to the party. He was following after Chappelle and after Chris Rock. In many ways, this is the worst case scenario for progressives because Netflix is the most influential streamer by far. They've lost Netflix. Twitter is the trendsetter, the default editor for the corporate press. They've lost Twitter. The two leading comedians by a mile are Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle. They've lost them.

Bobby Burack: The Downfall of Woke Influence
"Only way for this movement, this coalition, this cult to ever end, is this culture is the where it begins to die. And you're starting to see major pushback from the very tools of messaging that help enable this ideology. I lay it out, Chris Rock. He's pushing back. Dave Chappelle, he's refusing to obey by woke thing. Netflix most prevalently is dismissing shows that embrace these ideas by getting rid of anti racist program and by ibram X kendi the leading shows about men having babies in lieu embracing confrontational comedy and shows that appeal to Middle America and they're doing so to great success and you look over what's happening on Twitter will Twitter really helped promote a lot of these ideas by rigged algorithm and normalizing walkie trends like putting your names in your pronouns and the bio or using hashtags mask up hashtag BLM. But Elon Musk chief mission since purchasing the platform is to unrig the algorithm to let trends originate naturally not at the behest of anonymous figures behind Twitter headquarters. So if you couple all that together, the way the woke we're able to capture American culture was to a monopoly a monopoly on messaging a monopoly on entertainment. I'm not on comedy, big tech. Will that stranglehold is beginning to weaken and you're starting to see more people be able to not only push back but expose this movement and that makes that much easier for other people to join and I always say woke is like the bully on the playground when finally knocked down it gets up no longer at spheres. You see it as vulnerable as beatable and that's what the woke is. It's a small annoying 10% this entirely beatable.

Mike and Mark: Reviewing Chris Rock's Live Comedy Special
"As stand up comedy, Chris Rock is a genius, been a fan for decades. It was not great. It wasn't bad, please. He even him on an off night is still a pretty great. I think it's clear that Dave Chappelle has lapped him in terms of both being funny and being intriguing and compelling. But what everybody was waiting for was his riff on the Will Smith slap. It was pretty masterful. It was pretty darn great. He spared nothing. And going off on will, on Jada, their weirdness, their entanglements, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. All other things being equal, it was quite the spectacle. It started out with some attacks on wokeness and some attacks on victimhood talked about Meghan Markle and about how she always thought that the royal family was so racist. It's so racist. They want to know how Brown the baby is going to be. That's racist. She said, that's not racist. Black people wanted to know how Brown the baby was going to be. And the one thing off the beginning just the first 5 minutes has had the notion that words hurt. Anybody who says that words hurt has never been hit in the face. Words only hurt if they're written on a brick. There was some smartness in there. It was okay,

The News Cycle Is Starting to Feel Like an SNL Skit
"This whole new cycle seemed like an SNL sketch. We were saying the anti gay shooter's father who's done gay porn just for a second. And then also, what do you call it? Who looks like methy Josh Brolin? Yes. Right. Yes. Yes, exactly. Yes. Does he not look and sound exactly like Carl from sling blade? Am I incorrect? I got daddy Joe guy who tell you at least he's not game. I don't care if he likes French fried potatoes with mustard as long as he don't got no sugar in his tank. And then Kanye, who is actually at this point doing the Dave Chappelle character, the blind white supremacist with the white supremacist campaign manager, Nick Fuentes. Yes, Nick, mom's basement Fuentes. Who Trump has met several times, had a two hour dinner with and ends the thing going, I don't know him. Here's the other thing. There was a third person. There was Kanye, Nick Fuentes, and somebody else who was with them, who was equally equally awful. We'll find out later, it was David duke or somebody, but somebody else he doesn't know. Yeah, right, but they specifically haven't named who that person was and as bad as Nick Fuentes is and Kanye West is what as bad as what he's been saying about the Jews lately. Imagine how awful that third person has to be. It's like, this is my friend, mister hilter. Hello. I'm alive. Filter. Single dot mustache under his thing and go like a nice butter and throwing his hand. I feel a sitcom in the future. He's a black guy's best friend and white supremacist. He's a tiny little white supremacist who's Hispanic. He's an old bloated orange circus peanut, and he's the mystery guest of the week. I don't know, don't say my name. Rather than better than hunter.

Rachel Bovard on What Makes Trump Different
"Joining us now is Rachel bovard, who wrote a very interesting piece of The New York Times. What makes Trump different from desantis and other Republicans, Rachel is with us right now, Rachel, welcome to the program. Thanks for having me. So Rachel, why don't you summarize the piece for our audience and we'll dive into it from there? So the piece really looks into what I think is the appeal of Donald Trump. And I think people in Washington, particularly establishment Republicans, and even sort of what I call a conservative intelligentsia, missed this. And this is exactly the dynamic I saw play out in 2016 and it's going to play out again in 2024 because people in leadership of the Republican Party have no idea still have no idea why it is that Trump won. And it is this visceral connection that he has with his base voters who trust him implicitly. And interestingly, Dave Chappelle honed in on this, I think, really well when he was hosting Saturday Night Live recently. I don't watch Saturday Night Live personally, but I caught this clip and I thought he articulated it extremely well. He said, look, I live in Ohio. You people have no idea why Trump is so popular there. And he said, Trump is what I call an honest liar. And what he meant by that was, you know, he pointed back to this debate that Trump had with Hillary Clinton in 2016, where Trump basically said, look, I know the system is rigged because I use it. And that was just, I think, distilled to its essence, the why people trust Trump the way that they do. Because he set out loud as a beneficiary of someone at the top of the system who benefited from how it's going to rigged and corrupt toward the top. He set out loud what everybody at the bottom has long suspected, which is that the system itself is rigged and because he benefited from it. He had tremendous credibility in pointing that out. And so people, I think, who vote for Trump really see him as someone who can not bend the system because he's been part of it.

Did Cancel Culture Emerge Because Americans Have It Too Good?
"So, you know, my life, especially my childhood, was just one crisis after another. And I think that really gave me this ability to deal with these tough situations in a way that I think a lot of people can't and that maybe a lot of people would crumble. I think that's why I'm good at politics. I'm not great with a lot of things in life. You know, always joke, I'm not the smartest. I'm not the best looking. I'm an endurance athlete. So I'm not the fastest. I'm not the strongest. I'm in the middle of the pack athlete. And it's like, you know, God gave me this one gift of being able to endure tough things by putting a lot of obstacles in my way as a youth. But it's sort of interesting, right? I mean, we brought up cam. We brought up David goggins and again, you know, it's very similar. You do get toughened to the things that you're in a part of, whether you had. For me, I had my childhood was very, you know, for the most part, normal and stable. I had a state trooper for a dad. My mom worked. They were together 50 something years. But as I've gone into adulthood, getting into politics, getting into being a pastor, going to a dealing in those areas of where you're out there, you're raw war zone, you know, you're dealing with death, you're dealing with when you're, you know, I work with firemen and death notification and dealing with okay. You get to where your body and I'm noticed this and I wanted from your perspective. I've noticed there's a lot of things in my life. If I ever just sat down and a quiet room, I just don't really want to unpack. I mean, I'd rather have that scab for the last 25 years on certain events, just to stay there, but it makes us tougher so that when the next crisis comes, it's not like you've ever seen it before. And I think I see a lot of people nowadays when crisis comes in their life. They've never experienced it before. And it's such a shock to the system. I think these are one of your book. I think it's probably a great time. Is that something you're seeing nowadays, we're not understanding how to deal with certain situations? Yeah, man, I think part of cancel culture is because America's almost in a too good a place right now. It's like Maslow's hierarchy of needs. And whenever you've got your, you know, you've been in war zone, so you've seen people really suffering, right? Once you have your safety and your food and shelter and you have those basic needs mad, then you take a couple other steps up the wrong and everybody's got a job and everybody's doing well and the employment market is so good that people that employers can't even find people. When things are so good, people start looking for things to complain about. And I can tell you that from someone who used to have to pick up pennies and dimes on the side of the streets. A mom could put gas in her car to go to cosmetology school to feed us. When you're worried about those kind of things, you're not worried about what someone tweeted last night. You don't care what Joe Rogan or Dave Chappelle said, right? You don't care about those things when you get real, real problems. And it seems that America has become so comfortable that people don't have real problems. And you know, I was looking, I was watching a documentary last night and people were talking about how America's fallen apart. Well, these people will obviously never done any kind of reading of world history or even recent world history like the 60s. And the Torah mall America was going through in the 60s where, you know, there were riots on the street every day and political leaders were getting assassinated every other month. And it's just that now America has become so comfortable that any time there's some sort of divisiveness, our problem, people hunker down, they're scared because they haven't gone through it before. And I think it's necessary for human beings to have really tough experiences in their lives so that they can deal with other tough experiences and taking politics out of the equation, you might get a divorce or your kid might get sick or you might get cancer. We're all just humans going through a human experience and at some point in our life we're all going to have something that happens in our lives that we're going to have to deal with and it just seems like we've gotten to this point where people can't deal with anything because they've just had it so good for so long. Yeah. Well, and you see that. I mean, you say it reflected in campus, you know, where you have the quote site zones. You have places where you don't want. You know, it always kills me, you know, being an attorney being in D.C., all these people, you know, scream, you know, First Amendment. The First Amendment is not there for speech that you like. It is for speech that you despise the things that really curl your skin. And yet we have a proposal that what's that saying that's going around right now with, it's as strong what strong hard times might strong man strong man make easy times easy time to make weak men weak men make hard times. And I think when I first heard that I said, I mean, that's a key, but the more I got to think about it though, it really, I mean, what you just said is interesting.

Chris Rock and Dave Chapelle Keep Ganging up on Will Smith
"Everybody seems to be lauding Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle for going on what seems like this revenge tour they seem to have right now. They're turning up together in concerts and doing shows together. I don't know. Chris Rock came out the other night. I think it was sadly finally addressing the Will Smith slap. Hasn't done it yet, really. He said, you know, he said I'm fuck you and you're a hostage video referring to the video Will Smith put on YouTube a few weeks back up saying I reached out to because I humbly apologize. Chris Rock the one, none of it. And then his big joke was, you know, yeah, that's smack hurt. He played Muhammad Ali. I couldn't even play Floyd Mayweather. And you know, he just went on and on for a while and Chappelle applauded it too, and he called Chris Rock brave. No brave would have been hitting him back. I mean, it would have been stupid, but brave. Brave is to wait months before you say something that's not brave a bad word. You know, the slap was bad. I'm not for the slap. I mean, but come on, stop this. Okay, look, you got slapped. We get it. But how about what happened to Rihanna in the car with Chris Brown? She got the crap knocked out of her. Remember her face? You didn't see her mentioning what happened to her every time she stepped on a stage somewhere, when did a concert?

Marilyn Monroe Look-Alike Suzie Kennedy Discusses Free Speech
"We are back with the most famous, the most famous, Marilyn Monroe lookalike comedian actress, just a fun lady to know Susie Kennedy follow her right now on Twitter Suzy. I like the cut of your jib, not simply because you can get into Marilyn's dresses. Oh my he is such a sexist, slap that man behave. But because you're outspoken, you are, you know, you go on these interviews, you did the three three speech podcast that great guy farm podcast, then you want James well. And then we were talking about abortion. We were talking about the Supreme Court ruling. And then James said to you and me, because you're a vow, Chris, you said, you religious people. No, you religion. He called you religion, people, and you stood out for your rights. And also in recent tweet of yours, you said, you stood up for being against those who would like to censor you as a performer or a comedian. So talk about what it means to actually take a stand on these issues as somebody who's so much in the public eye. Well, the thing is, I actually don't think I'm outspoken. What I think I am and people do accuse me of that. I'm just tell what I think, and I think that's really important that we free speech, even if I don't agree with you. So the comment I made about a comedian is that I love the fact that we have Dave Chappelle. I love the fact that we have Ricky Gervais, but I also like the fact that we have nish Kumar, who are pitted against each other. Right. So the political identity doesn't matter, the fact is that they get to say what they want to say. Yes. And do you know what? I'll be honest with you. When people say, oh, you should say whatever you want. Most people do not say things with the intention to hurt or hate. And if you're scared to say anything because straight away, someone's going to be her or think you hate them. That's not true. Jesus loved everybody. But he told the truth.

Dinesh on the Controversy Around Ricky Gervais’ New Comedy Special
"Well, Ricky Gervais is back. This time with his new Netflix special, it's called super nature. That means I'm going to watch tonight. We saw a little clip on social media, really great stuff, taking on identity politics, taking on the trends issue. And look, you know, interesting thing about Ricky Gervais, and I think probably the same thing could be said of Dave Chappelle. Here are a few quotes from Gervais. He goes, he goes, I'm going to leave it into annoy people. He goes, in other words, comedy is not about respecting taboos. He goes, I talk about aids, famine, canceled the Holocaust rape pedophilia, but know the one thing you mustn't joke about his identity politics. He goes, the one thing you should never joke about is the trans issue. They just want to be treated equally. He goes, I agree. That's why I include them. What a profound statement. You want to be treated equally. Well, that includes the right to be lambasted along with the rest of us. So Ricky Gervais is not willing to make some kind of immunity. And Netflix now I think is beginning to realize that look, you know, it's one thing to start Netflix has a woke staff. And when Chappelle did his special called the closer, the Netflix left us all said, what we're going to do a walkout and they were trying to bring the company to its knees. But it seems like Netflix even though run by a leftist big Obama worshipper. They kind of Netflix regrouped. And I think they realized, wait a minute, you know, we, we got rid of Luis. CK, we got rid of Bill Burr. We got rid of Dave Chappelle. We got rid of Ricky Gervais. Well, who's left?

LGBTQ Alphabet Mafia Rail Against Surprise Chappelle Appearance
"Some people who attended a concert or a comedy show the other night, they were looking forward to watching John Mulaney stand up show and Ohio Friday evening. And they were taking them back a lot of pearl clutching going on. And all of a sudden, Dave Chappelle opened the show with some say, was an anti trans and anti gain joke during his 15 minute surprise performance. Normally, if you're going to see John Mulaney, I don't know anybody who would pay to see him. He's funny, but I'm not showing out coin to see him. Normally, if Dave Chappelle steps on stage before mulaney comes on, you've been treated to a wonderful evening. I mean, that's like a dream. Holy shit, Chappelle is gonna do something? Wow. So a lot of fans were there, listen to Chappelle, open from alone. Mulaney. And they took to social media, which is what people do now. The pussy generation got to tell on people, got a lot of American know how offended they were. So these idiots expressed their anger and dismay about being, as they said, ambushed by Dave Chappelle. This is the only comedian with the balls to mock the LGBTQ alphabet mafia. And the people in question were disappointed. Was John Mulaney for getting Chappelle another platform to malign as they say. And already marginalized community. I wouldn't call your community marginalized. I would call the trans community a fucking nuisance because you amount to 0.1% of the population, but you're streaming the loudest.

Netflix Proves Americans Have Had Enough Wokeness
"Americans are smarter than they think. And this is one of the reasons why Netflix has struggled so much. Don't forget this was a stock that was flying high up around $600 a share back in January at the start of the year now. It's around 200 and a lot of this has to do with not just the challenges that our economy may be confronting in the near future. But the culture wars that are going on. And Netflix seems to be waking up here, learning that wokeism is not good for business. Not good at all. In fact, Netflix is now under enormous pressure. After it lost 200,000 subscribers in the first quarter, recognizing, of course, that you do not provide content people like if you go too far out on this liberal leftist nonsense that's actually offensive to some people, they're not going to watch their show. Your shows and they're not going to subscribe to your content and that becomes an issue then for the company, right? Because you think about the loss and subscribers, the content like Dave Chappelle, right? The employees are furious about Dave Chappelle. So Netflix just said, you know what? We don't care. This is the right move, by the way. This is the right move for the company. The country as well. Netflix just issued a long memo detailing that the company culture is sort of at stake and it wants to really help to improve upon it saying that it wants to produce lots of different content and it will not allow its employees to cut

Let's get right back into it. I thought that Dave Chappelle said that he'd be willing to meet with Netflix staffers. That no longer includes you because Netflix fired you, unfortunately, do you think that that would be like, what do you be willing to meet with him? Do you feel like that would be fruitful or productive or would that be like, is that just like not even where your head is at? I mean, I would tell me the whole point of this is to educate people. Right. And Dave says that he cares, right? Part of his statements, too, he's like, this isn't me versus them. You know, this is about, you know, other things. And so I would be glad to meet with him. And also, I don't have to be there. I could also, you know, if he wants to reach out, I can help him connect with the Netflix people as well. Because this isn't about me, right? This is about the work and the making sure this work gets done. And I hope that he would actually listen. And I think he had mentioned recently he was, you know, he said something like, but you have to watch the special and I'm like, we all have either read the transcript of watching special. So we've already done all of our homework. I would ask him to look up what turf ideology actually means. And also understand a little bit more about transgender biology. You know, just so we can actually start off on the same playing field in terms of, you know, what we're talking about. But other than that, let's go for it. In the piece that I read on your blog, you referenced this really famous Baldwin quote to be a Negro in this country is to be relatively relatively conscious is to be in the rage, most of the time. And you kind of had your own spin on it, you said, to be a black trans person in America is a study and courage and a fierce desire to not be forgotten. And so it just seems like black trans folks are so easily erased and forgotten. Not just in this conversation, but everywhere. And, you know, y'all have always been here. Y'all are part of our history. And I guess I wonder, do you find yourself feeling like you have to constantly create these monuments to your existence so that it doesn't get erased? And not just monuments here exist because this idea that black trans existence is more than just like trauma and pain, making sure that there's room for black trans joy, black trans dreams, black trans brilliant. How do we build monuments to be 360 degrees that is black transness? Yeah, you know, it's so funny. I was talking to my cousin, because, you know, my cousin, he was talking about, you know, the special and how it didn't hit for him. And we started talking about black trans people. And, you know, translating the majority of the names that's going to be read out as people have been killed this year are black trans people. And it's so interesting because those people are just the people we know about. Those are the people who had someone who advocated for them who said this person was a black person. This person was a trans person. Because many people don't have legal name changes. Like they don't have any they don't have people who are affirming of their identity. To represent their story. In fact, I was telling my cousin that I'm so fortunate because my legal name is B, this is the name of my chose. My documents show that I'm a trans person. There's an entire reflection now in the zeitgeist, the zeitgeist. This says that I am being. So no one can take my story from me. Right, no one can take my story from me. And so that is the point is the fact that so many people live these amazing colorful beautiful lives that are cut short and because of the fact that as a society, we're not quite where we need to be to understand and be respectful that identity, right? It's actually really funny 'cause people talk about that you should have privacy in your home. But what we actually talk about what we actually see for black trans people is that as soon as you die, you're privacy goes away. You become a part of the public conversation and they choose who you are. And so that's the thing about all of this. This is about choice. It's like, why do we choose to harm, why do we choose to defend? Why do we choose to let people be forgotten when we know they existed and they should be honored as such? And so that is the real core piece of this. And so it's an increasingly frustrating thing for me. Because even you know, there's a young man from Mississippi who was killed recently. And his entire family, mister him. And it's his family. It's his toes and family who has done this work to get out the message of who he was. And I just think it's someone else from Mississippi. Who is just so fortunate that I get to control my story? And he's like, was Hamilton? Google tell your story. If Hamilton's wife wasn't so bombed, who knows what we would know about Alexander Hamilton? Right? Like, you know, that's That's beautiful. Where can folks support you support black trans folks more broadly? And what should folks do to support the Netflix staffers who.

"I did is change to our lead was also to meet with continent executives. And I called it the friendship offensive. And all we would do is go have conversations with these folks and say, hey, we're humans. We're great. We can help you make great content. And I'm going to tell you some of the pieces of productions that we worked on. I know for a fact that there's so much better because we just sat down with those people and told them different ways. And they were sent us emails and say, what do you think of this? What do you think of that? And all we did was consult. You know, it was never, oh, like, you know, we are the we are the barrier to this amazing thing being created. It was how can we make it better so that Netflix's reputation is in harm so that trans people aren't harm, is that people get a good message out of it? That's such a good point because the only thing I have heard about this comedy special is the transphobia and the turf comment and the J. K. Rowling comments. Whatever the other point Dave was trying to make, it did not reach me. It did not reach Twitter. And I have to wonder like, was that actually, I feel like if he had been open to be thought partners with you all, his special would have been that much better that much more, you know, just that much more truthful and authentic. And it's like, what a miss opportunity to make something better and also less harmful. Like, what a win win that was just missed. Yeah, I mean, one of the things I saw someone tweet, they were like, I haven't seen anyone drop video a GIF a meme of the special. They had a joke in it. And they were like, how can a special be successful if they haven't dropped the single one? And I was like, you have a point. They've only dropped the really incendiary things. And so to your point, it is true. Like, you know, I do feel like the special could have been so much more powerful. If there had been that partnership because I do think I understand what he's trying to say, I disagree with it, right? And I would say this because the special is trying to pit LGBTQ+ versus a civil rights movement. I am a black trans person. I'm at the intersection of these two groups. I get screwed over by both groups, right? Like legitimately I get scared over by both groups. And so I do think that this oppression Olympics like one movement hurting another movement. I don't think that's true. In fact, if you think about the same sex marriage law that went into effect, many years ago, they actually, you know, used loving versus Virginia as part of their logic behind it because they're saying that minority individuals deserve the same rights as anyone else in this country. And so I actually think that both the civil rights movement and the LGBTQ rights movement are intrinsically linked. And we would be empowered by uniting them versus assuming that one happens over the other one. And it just I mean, I completely agree. We're definitely our movements are stronger together when we support each other. And it completely erases people at the intersections like yourself. Something about Dave's comedy seems to suggest that LGBTQ the LG, it's like that book, all the women are white, all the men are black, right? All the LGBTQ folks are just default white. All of the black folks are default cysts. And if like, it completely erases that people exist at those intersections in a way that I feel like it's so like 1997. Get your attitudes and your ideas into 2021, you know? Exactly. Exactly. And the simple fact is, you know, I think it was time like three or four years ago. They were talking about what the future of the world's going to look like. And all those people had melan it. Okay. Right. I mean, let's just be truthful. The way that the world is actually changing. The way that it's actually evolving. Even Gen Z such a large percentage of Gen Z around the world is completely open to not only LGBTQ+ people, but they're coming out increasingly earlier. But you know, you have like 8 9 ten 1112 15, 16, you know, come out and say, yeah, I'm a part of the LGBTQ+ community, which is not something that has ever happened before. The world is changing rapidly. Right. And so the fact that we continue to have these very antiquated conversations, it's just very disturbing to me. And as a sign of how some people are like, this is why you have to be thoughtful and you have to listen. I am now considered an elder, 'cause, you know, I'm over a certain age. I'm an elder now, right? In my community, because of the trans community, most like so there's been a statistic that says that many black trans people do not make it to the age of 35. I am not over 35. So I'm like a grandparent. That's how that's how they perceive me. And it's just so interesting to me because even for me, I have to take a step back and listen to the younger people. And because they're like, you're more conservative than I am. And I was like, oh, I guess I am, right? Because I grew up in a completely different generation. I came out much later because I was afraid and you don't have that fear mechanism that keeps you from being your whole self. And I actually admire me. What do you need me to help you with? Because you're so much further along than I was. And all I'm trying to do is make sure that you have a safe place to win. That's beautiful. First of all, I would have never thought you were over 35, but that's so beautiful. You know, so that's what I'm saying. It's so true. Let's take a quick break.

"And this is there are no girls on the Internet. After the release of Dave Chappelle's new comedy special the closer on Netflix. Netflix staffers and their allies spoke up about the specials transphobic material and organized a walkout. Chappelle doubled down in a newly released clip, where he said, Netflix asked that they wanted a safer work environment, but that he's the only one who's not able to get into the building at Netflix anymore. It seems like I'm the only one that can't go to the office anymore. But you want to know someone who most definitely can not get back into the Netflix building, B pagal minor, a very pregnant black transformer program manager who Netflix fired for alleging they were the source of a Bloomberg article about just how much money Netflix spent on the special. Now be a disputes this. As do their coworkers, and even after B was fired, Bloomberg continues to publish new internal metrics from Netflix, making it even more unlikely. B, along with Tara field, a trans Netflix senior software engineer, who was suspended for tweeting critically about the special, have filed suits with the national labor relations board. Saying that Netflix engaged in activity to quell employees from speaking up about working conditions, including seeking to create a safe and affirming work environment, speaking up about Netflix products and the impact its product choices have on the LGBTQ community and providing support for employees whom Netflix has treated in an unlawful and disparate manner. And as much as Dave Chappelle keeps talking about how he's being canceled naturally as one does from a massive stage in front of a massive adoring audience while earning millions for it, the demands of the Netflix staffers who walked out, do not include asking Netflix to take down the comedy special. Instead, Netflix staffers are asking for things like comparable investment in trans and non binary lead projects at Netflix and more trans and non binary people in leadership positions. B is clear that this is about so much more than one comedy special. So my name is B Hegel's minor. My pronoun they them theirs and my current title is growing a baby. And that's about it. So I read your Washington Post piece and I read the piece on your blog, both of which really talked about this journey for you really fully and great in who you are. And I guess one of my questions for you was like, what was it like to feel seen in that way? You know, to share this truth about yourself. Did you feel seen working at Netflix? Was it something that, you know, felt I felt like a good fit? Yeah, you know, it's really interesting because I would say yes and no. Right. So like in terms of the internal environment and Netflix, I definitely felt like I had a lot of support to be a black person a trans person. A lesbian, you know, loud, you know, someone who dissents very loudly things like that. But one of the complaints I've always had in something that obviously is coming up again here is the lack of content. So it was so strange to be like this internal employee feel pretty validated feel pretty supported. But then when I looked at the things around screen, I didn't see anything that looked like me. And that kind of dissonance was one of the things that bothered me most about working there, right? You know, I really wanted to say, you know, first of all, I'm from Mississippi. There are black majority of Mississippi's black, right? The majority of Mississippi is also rural. You know, why don't we have shows about that? I watch palley last year. And it was so funny, because my Friends were like, people doesn't seem like your type of show. I was like, it's about black people mississip. I'm so excited. I was like, I finally get to see people who are like my family who that I grew up around. And so it was always like that that little bit of like, yes, I feel good because I'm great benefits. I have a great salary. I get to be loud. I'm doing some of the best work of my life. But no, because I really feel like we're missing the mark showing representative lives of diverse types of people. Conversations around identity and representation at Netflix did not start with Dave Chappelle. Internally, Netflix staffers have been pushing these conversations about whose story gets told and by who and how for years. Like many companies, Netflix has employee resource groups or ERGs, employee led initiatives within a company that work to create inclusivity along certain demographics and identities. There's dream at Netflix to champion immigrant representation, black at Netflix. I am at Netflix for Jewish representation. For veteran representation, indigenous at Netflix, and more. Trans star is the ERG that champions trans identity and representation at Netflix. That B helps lead. And after the release of the film girl, a 2019 Belgian film about a trans ballet dancer that faced criticism for its depiction of things like body dysmorphia and self harm and the trans community. It's so easy for people to think that these conversations happening internally around Netflix and the content they produce. So it sort of the way that the content represents or does not represent all folks, you know, trans identities all of that. It's easy to think that those conversations began and ended with this Dave Chappelle's special. But we know that's not true. Can you give me a little bit of a history lesson of where these conversations at Netflix actually did start? So the trans Pacific conversation started around the release of girl. So the girl movie, it was definitely it was a misrepresentation of trans culture. And that's when, you know, it was almost three years ago. That's when people first started asking questions about, hey, like, why did we put that out there? This is harmful content. It's not true. It's a terrible representation of trans culture. Separately, I was also the ERG ERG lead for blacket, right? And the black head is the oldest ERG out of all the ERGs. And they've been talking about that for like 6 or 7 years. Right. So 6 or 7 years they've been talking about black content, black representation, making sure confidence there. So the conversation around content and having it be representative is in the DNA of Netflix for diverse people who work there. The question is simply then why the heck is it not moved forward? Why the heck have we not gotten to the point that the content really reflects all of this internal debate internal conversation that's been very, very robust. And in fact, when you actually think about it, you know, a lot of the comments that have been made is, oh, well, Netflix is one of the first places that ever had a trans person. And I'm like, yeah. Yeah, we know who runs on orange is the new black. You know, we know, you know, know me from, since a, but at the same time, if you can only name two or three. That's probably not a good way to go about this. You know? And then we also know when Laverne was on orange's new black, they were dubbing her words with men in other countries. What? Yes, they really I did not know that. And it was so offensive and for instance train star is another great example when transferred with consulted by the dubbing team and they were like, so how should we deal with this in the future? And we were like, well, you know, we understand that in different countries in different languages, it might be difficult to find someone who perfectly matches someone's voice. And if that is the case, just ask the person what they think. You know, don't just make an arbitrary decision. Seek out support, create relationships and honor people by letting them be represented in.

"And then i mean aside from everything after the first season was a wonderful show our own modest to the video game series in it. It is not entirely different. Yeah absolutely and. I think that it may not be what you're expecting. But you may still be pleasantly surprised so okay as long as i will be on. I can't be the optimist here. Should i can't change my okay. All right fair enough. Well what are your thoughts. Up there on uncharted. Please let us know. Pop culture cosmos at yahoo dot com before he hit the brake belinda. I wanted to go ahead and talk about netflix If you're the ceo and you're driving home on friday and you're checking this out and you're thinking about back upon your weakness. Sometimes people do at five o'clock drive on the freeway as you're heading home and you're thinking yourself how was my week. It was a high of highs and the lows and it's been a tough and good week for net flicks. What do you want to start off with the tough or good. I mean i. I only have seen the good. So let's start with the tough because i. I'm not sure that. I know exactly what you're talking about so i'm very intrigued. We'll recently netflix. Dropped the latest. Dave chapelle comedy show yes and it has come out to obviously a lot of viewers along the claim but also a lot of controversy because of the transgender comments and bit that he has during the course of the show that he performed. That was very demeaning to the transgender community. And this has caused some internal strife in the community. And the ceo paraphrasing here. A roussy made a statement in an internal memo stating that it's doing outstanding numbers for net flicks and that. What was said by. Dave chapelle in the standup comedy routine was not to be taken seriously. And that is gonna do no real world harm. I think was his exact quote. I'm not one hundred percent sure. But i think it was to that effect and that's off a firestorm internally in netflix not only just on the outside with the transgender community but internally and netflix where there were several disruptions within the confines of netflix there were protests. There were leaks believe. They've locked out today actually if they did a while actually yesterday to is it a walkout. Yeah they did a walkout yesterday as far as employees backed by several non transgender employees supporting the transgender community. In regards this so it's been a hot button issue. The netflix does had to backtrack on some of his statements. Force your thoughts on this trying to put this in perspective. There were some very demeaning comments towards the transgender community as part of the comedy routine. That's something that has been in comedy routines as far as disparaging a certain community for decades. I didn't say it made it right. I'm just saying it's been there for decades. So i wanna hear thoughts on dave chapelle 's comedy special and the internal strife in netflix. Yeah the internal strife at net flicks. I think is the reflection of the mood. I think of how people are reacting to these more. I don't mean to trivialize. And i. And i hope that that's not the way that this is coming across. But the more sensitive topics you have to be responsible for what you say and what you talk about and ten time where accountability is such a huge thing. If you can't fully support something that is on. Whether it's a netflix service or something that you hear.

Nice really upping the ante. There could job show finally today. I have not seen the newest. Dave chapelle stand up special. It obviously has been Generating a lot of controversy most notably. For what dave had to say about transpeople apparently There was a large chunk of trans related jokes and that has upset the trans community again. I don't know how bad it is. Obviously if it was like a sustained attack on transpeople trans people are going to be upset about it. What strangers. I've got audio here of a protest. That went down think. It's like in front of netflix headquarters. And it's a bunch of like trans activists and people who support trans saying they. Dave chapelle has to go. You should ban him take his special down. Whatever i just feel like. this is all misplaced. Turn your anger towards dave chapelle. If you don't like what. Dave chapelle is saying people are allowed to have different opinions again. I haven't seen it. But apparently dave chapelle has some problems with the trans community and as long as he's not like inciting violence against these people are some then. I don't think netflix has a responsibility to only air. One side of an argument or air content that supports only one opinion on something you know. Let the comedian say whatever he wants and if you don't like what he says fuck and boycott him. If i was a trans person. I would be glad this thing aired now. I know what type of person dave chapelle is. He's a dick by anymore. Tickets to his stand specials or whatever this protest is so lame by the way there's actually like to protests going on you know there's there's the group that's protesting net flicks and i guess dave chapelle and then there's protesters.

I think that's the most important thing to pull away from this. And he obviously does that by leaning on. I think is arguable. But he's he himself is also gone through. Some trauma is black man in america. He's somebody who has stood up for those rights. He's constantly been fighting. I mean nobody makes fun of white people more than he does. And even he even says in this especial where he's like for the last thirty years forty years. I been battling in arguing with white people. And i felt as though that the community itself going after him specifically is inappropriate. And they're calling at least now the trans community and those that support them calling for dave chapelle to be for his special to be removed from netflix and their co chief executive officer actually said in an internal memo saying that the closer is not going to be removed that they support creative freedom and it's unfortunate but this is a reality. the netflix members. Enjoy it. it's the most. Dc chapelle is one of the most popular standup comedians today. And we have a standing deal with him is last special sticks and stones. Also controversial is our most watched stickiest most award winning standup special to date. And that saying a lot from netflix.

Here's the here's the initial tweet. That was put out by jacqueline more. The employees for netflix loved so I love so many of the people i've worked with at net flicks brilliant people and executives who have been collaborative and fought for the important art. But i've been thrown against walls. Because i'm not a real woman. I've had beer bottles thrown at me. So so that's basically netflixing done so. She resigned from resign. Yes according to the according to these tweets yes Joe is in peekskill. What's up joe. Yeah you know what. I don't get it. I mean you shouldn't make fun of people and you know daughter with disability. I don't like when people make fun of people with disabilities but you gotta take it in the context of where it comes from and you always have the right to shut it off. I don't wanna watch days you because he's saying something that i don't like i shut it off. I don't pay to watch somebody. That i know is going to be offensive to me. So you know cancel. Culture gets a little bit crazy. I want to protect the rights of people. I get it but on the other hand i mean it is comedy and you gotta you know. Just take with a grain of salt like bouma said andrew dice. Clay makes fun with did make fun of a lot of different people. You the laughing off. We showed him out. You don't watch him in. Don't don't enough people watching job on a phone book bouma. You weren't real good buddy. My tony was stage manager at the nfl today. yeah up in the bronx. good man. tony. Tony yeah i know. So what do you think. I mean i just you know you always have an option to shut it. Yeah i i know. Joe i mean all right the how do you put this. I have not been in a situation where i've been so different. Were people have gone after me. That i'm different and of made me feel less than equal. I've been fortunate in that way in the growing up. I've never felt that way. There are people out there that feel that way. Trans people feel that way. Where they there's people at say things to them and they feel less than equal and it's it's a big part of their lives so yes it may be simple for me or joe peekskill to have because we grew up in a ball boston area with a bunch of like minded and same looking people to turn something off. We don't like it may not be that easy for someone who grew up with either a disability or maybe had some sort of other issue or maybe trans or maybe and then felt less than than equal growing up because there were some mean. People being bullied out there. So that's that's all you know it's it's it's hard it's just it's it's a. It's a difficult conversation to have but i'm not going to tell somebody you you should with your experiences not be offended about this. You know what i'm saying. Yeah okay. I know what you're saying exactly have to take a break next to you for three years. I know i just wanted to. I needed affirmation in that situation. Gotten to you all right.

"The whole joke and and yemen i just feel like that's what we do. That's what we do like we just in his space. It's like i wanna be offended by something. I'm looking for space to be offended. In a moment. I get a key. Were a moment. I get you know any of these phrases to fit in the dish. Bother me then fuck. It bothers me and now. I'm a mechanical. You'll take you down anybody that's which you stands with yama be against them as well everybody getting drug and it gets crazy and I don't know i've been going to a lot of comedy shows. Recently comics are talking about. This is why when you go to comedy shows you take your phone because there's no joke you can make is not gonna i think comedy by definition like is going to paint someone or something in a not so flattering light. And that's where the humor. That's where the funding is comes in. You know you got people that either degrade themselves and slip on. Benign appeals and your chris farley themselves or you got people who say something about somebody else whatever you south park who says about everybody but that's just the nature of like jokes. There is a of the joke and it doesn't necessarily mean a disrespect or a hatred or anything like that But i was like i was saying one of the things i did hear in the articles that i guess i can see the point to Is one particular lady. I think she. She's a show runner for a proper show on netflix and And she was. It wasn't so much that she was upset with daesh appeal because she felt like the things. Dave chapelle said in the special normalize opinions about her as a trans woman. That would be the reasons why you know. She gets thrown up against walls and bathrooms and stuff like that or she arrived and things like and and get the i. I get that because definitely haven't heard dave chapelle take the stance he took on certain things or stated of things that he felt as freely as he d on. That show gave me. 'cause i've been wanting to talk about you know some of the issues with with trains and pronouns in a way we all have to adjust right now on. His pockets haven't felt the comfort level to do so. I haven't felt like.

"Important part of what he's presenting an and ask kind of what i got from watching that special because i've watched dave chapelle especially he's hilarious. I know he's hilarious. He's a master at what he did what he does. And i didn't feel that watching it. I didn't feel like a man on stage trying to make people laugh. I felt like a find a man was on stage. Who's naturally funny was talking about. Some things and there are some punchline in there are some jokes in there because that's natural for him and what he does. But i don't feel like that was the point i also in midnight miracle podcast and this is something that i have struggled. We on initial there was a bill. Burr was on there once and he talked about how you know not being not it being freeing to understand. You don't have to be responsible for how people interpret what you have to say. It's like you know 'cause he he gets on stage. He does a lot of You know jokes and things that are that contain racial content He's like he can always tell when you know there's a person that's taking it the wrong way. Where making a joke and No he's here to people in the in the back. That's right ill you know he. He liked the magazines the magazine levels raising and at a certain point he had to realize you don't have to have to take responsibility for people misconstruing his message because no matter how he says somebody can take that. Just just make what they wanted to hear or what jives with what make sense with them. I think we got hundred percent in a place right now. i wanted. I'd say america. Because that's my frame of reference but i think he's worldwide we. We base our facts off opinion. We don't base opinions facts so we hear what it is. We want to hear or we take the pieces that match. What with the narrative. Did we feel comfortable with. And that's what we run with and that's what we say happened and that's what we heard whether or not that's what was.

"So what hope to you think you have of living a life. That is going to please everybody in going to make it to that. No one ever feels About you says thing about you were dozen thing about you like the you have no chance. In the universe the only perfect person ever existed was murdered. So you know be prepared to live with it. And so i don't know i watched a special and i'll say i. I didn't think it was funny. I didn't think it was funny and not in like i was offended so i don't think he was funny. I don't think it was that funny. And i don't think it was funny. Purposefully like i'm had to backtrack on things said about other people in the past and So i want to admit that i've talked about. People doing mental gymnastics four person when. Say some crazy and we do the thing. We explain it in a way that they didn't even take the time to explain it. And i may be doing that in this situation Because i've seen daesh appeal like dodge raindrops like i've seen spill venture into dangerous territory and just be. The only human being alive could navigate that subject and be funny and poignant and get a point across without you know. I don't know engendering the counter. Backlash she's guy for this So i feel like it was. It was not funny in a way. That was purple. And i've only seen him dude is on like a select few occasions I think when he did that that show in. I think it was outside in in ohio. Whatever when when we did the candidates orange things talked about you know chicken runners. Thank you pussy side. Side our sidebar. If you listen to if you listen to what is called the midnight miracle podcast. He doesn't he doesn't episode like gets the guys together to decide whether or not he does kansas on an apology for wedding presents. No she got us. Thank you know. And he was like. Would you like to know what. I think it smells like and not deja bill but somebody else was like jala cheeks out. I find that hitler's find offensive offensive. But i find that hilarious. I i can see why if you can only be offensive. You somebody cares about his own if you will woman who cares about those issues or having people refer to you know. Women's body parts that way or natural hygiene issues that way or natural body functions. That way i can see how offensive but it is funny. This was not one of those cases again. I remember him. No having a very serious. Like long storytelling. Poignant conversation about canada's owns issue when he did that that quick. Sit down about his net. Flicks is a his show being on netflix. In some of these things him not being paid for it was presented as dave chapelle. Especially when if you went in my wife Us waiting on the punchline and never came he was he just has something to say and he still studying in a way. Only day shapiro said i storytelling. You know poignant to the point gut wrenching no heart strings with all the words. I'm trying to find.

"That you don't like by like complaining about him. I think there was a certain other. People are going to watch today's special regardless they spill puts out a special so like. I'm fucking whack. An essay that property. Dave shapiro new way certain people who are going to watch the special regardless dave shipbuilding after gone. They're going to watch it for me. It was on netflix. And i still got ptsd. 'bout netflix in your my ex wife. Ambien erased from the accountants. So so i haven't had enough looks and had no plans going back and Then this came out. And then i just kept seeing like the backlash not kept seeing like people being upset about it. What what. He must've saying what he must have did. So i pay for the netflix subscription. Just to watch this. Couldn't i don't know if they do free trials but it wasn't available move like every email address have already. I don't know but you know. I had to pay to get netflix. To watch this special. And i watched it yesterday and I don't know like. I don't even wanna talk about my opinion on. This is not in regards to like dave chapelle. I felt i felt like when i was reading all the stuff that you're probably like three four. Y'all there might have been sitting there. Like i wonder will plan things about this. And i you know my motto is working flying. Do for you. So like the he he go Mom is to quote my mom. Start out or mom always got picked on as a kid. I was short. Our smart key wasn't from around there I don't know maybe as Probably a couple of reasons that i got picked on lies gear. But i did and my mom's always say to me i you can't control what people say about you and you can't even feed into because if somebody says something about you that you don't like you only have two options. According and those are to change so that they can say that about you more or to not care and she's like and even if you do change so that they can't say the thing that they were saying probably just find something else to say about you so best option is just not care and she's also say to me he was like you know jesus christ was perfect perfect. The only perfect human being has ever existed and they crucified..
