1 00:00:04,780 --> 00:00:05,780 Start the clock. 2 00:00:43,470 --> 00:00:44,470 Thank you so much. 3 00:00:46,190 --> 00:00:48,570 Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. We've got a great show. 4 00:00:51,470 --> 00:00:53,550 Sit down and I'll tell you all about it. 5 00:00:55,630 --> 00:00:57,490 Okay, all right. I appreciate that. 6 00:00:59,230 --> 00:01:01,370 Oh, thank you. There's so much going on. 7 00:01:01,810 --> 00:01:05,470 I'm glad you're putting on a brave face. I know it's an exciting time because 8 00:01:05,470 --> 00:01:06,890 the Super Bowl is Sunday. 9 00:01:07,250 --> 00:01:08,810 No one's talking about the game. 10 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,220 It's all about the fucking halftime show. 11 00:01:14,620 --> 00:01:20,300 Am I right? This is how divided this country is. Unbelievable. We can't even 12 00:01:20,300 --> 00:01:21,760 have a halftime show we agree on. 13 00:01:23,420 --> 00:01:28,240 Really, because Bad Bunny's doing the real one at the Super Bowl, but then 14 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,500 Nation's putting on their own alternative one. 15 00:01:30,820 --> 00:01:37,140 Kid Rock is going to perform all his greatest hits and then shoot a case of 16 00:01:37,140 --> 00:01:38,920 Stella Artois just because... 17 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:41,480 Just because it sounds scary. 18 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,640 Yeah, 19 00:01:46,500 --> 00:01:50,860 oh, Bad Bunny? No bueno with that Trump crowd. 20 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:56,340 I mean, imagine being so offended at a Puerto Rican singing for 15 minutes that 21 00:01:56,340 --> 00:02:00,960 you create an alternative halftime show. Man, it's a good thing that the only 22 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,440 people in the world who are snowflakes are liberals, huh? 23 00:02:09,749 --> 00:02:14,430 But it is kind of that time of year on the calendar where there's something 24 00:02:14,430 --> 00:02:21,290 every weekend. There's the Super Bowl, and we've got Valentine's Day coming up. 25 00:02:21,330 --> 00:02:22,710 We had Groundhog Day. 26 00:02:23,250 --> 00:02:24,330 That was Tuesday. 27 00:02:25,750 --> 00:02:26,750 Great news. 28 00:02:28,730 --> 00:02:32,790 Well, for some people, because they did see a shadow, so more snow. So great 29 00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:36,110 news for the ski resorts. Terrible news for Chapel Rowan's tits. 30 00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:49,840 Oh, and it's also Black History Month. To get things 31 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:56,700 picked off, the Trump administration today called 32 00:02:56,700 --> 00:02:58,060 for a moment of indifference. 33 00:03:01,140 --> 00:03:05,520 No, they did something much worse. Trump did a Roseanne. 34 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:06,920 Did you see this? 35 00:03:07,220 --> 00:03:09,920 And shared a video. 36 00:03:10,570 --> 00:03:15,950 of black people, you know, superimposed as apes, and the people were the Obamas. 37 00:03:16,210 --> 00:03:18,950 I'm not going to show it because I don't want to give it any oxygen. 38 00:03:20,050 --> 00:03:24,170 But the defense, I thought, from the administration was rather lame. They 39 00:03:24,170 --> 00:03:25,610 he did not mean to hit share. 40 00:03:25,830 --> 00:03:26,830 He meant to hit like. 41 00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:39,840 Levitt, you know, she's a very loyal press spokesman, very loyal. 42 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:45,320 She said the president was just reposting a meme of him as the king of 43 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:51,020 jungle with Democrats as characters from The Lion King, as world leaders do. 44 00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:01,780 Two things a little wrong with this one. 45 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,820 There are no apes in The Lion King. 46 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:12,360 Two, if it's a cartoon character, it's okay. That's a rule now. If it's a 47 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:16,740 cartoon, it's okay to do anything. So it's okay if somebody made a cartoon of 48 00:04:16,740 --> 00:04:21,160 Elmer Fudd shooting Charlie Kirk. That would be okay. You fucking hypocrites. 49 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,140 You know... And I... 50 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,540 Carolyn Leavitt went on and she said, this is just a lot of fake outrage. 51 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,540 Fake outrage. Why don't you people in the press report on something that 52 00:04:37,540 --> 00:04:38,620 to the American public? 53 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,480 You know, like the lawsuit Trump has going over a joke he didn't like at the 54 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:43,480 Emmys. 55 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,160 Well. 56 00:04:52,060 --> 00:04:54,400 Yeah, I'm beginning to think this country's a little sleazy. 57 00:04:56,100 --> 00:04:57,560 There's a new wrinkle. 58 00:04:58,010 --> 00:05:00,190 in the Epstein case. Have you heard about this? 59 00:05:00,630 --> 00:05:05,030 Okay, they got some surveillance. Why'd they have it now, six years later? Where 60 00:05:05,030 --> 00:05:10,790 was this surveillance footage from the jail that Epstein killed himself in the 61 00:05:10,790 --> 00:05:12,950 night right before he did kill himself, 62 00:05:13,750 --> 00:05:15,090 or whatever happened in there? 63 00:05:15,770 --> 00:05:22,090 The surveillance video shows an orange -colored shape. I swear to God, that's 64 00:05:22,090 --> 00:05:23,090 what it says. 65 00:05:23,790 --> 00:05:27,290 An orange -colored shape moving toward his cell. Now, I know what you're 66 00:05:27,290 --> 00:05:28,290 thinking. 67 00:05:32,150 --> 00:05:33,150 What's orange? 68 00:05:35,410 --> 00:05:37,870 It has a reason to want Epstein dead. 69 00:05:45,470 --> 00:05:47,890 Obviously, Hillary in a Trump costume. 70 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,320 I was thinking the same thing, Fred. 71 00:05:55,700 --> 00:06:01,200 But this Epstein thing, man, the more you lift up this rock, the more you see 72 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,760 it's not just a few bugs that were crawling around under there. I mean, 73 00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:08,760 remember for a long time, who's on the list? Who isn't on the list? 74 00:06:15,780 --> 00:06:20,220 What these new emails show is they all lied. All these people who were saying, 75 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,620 we were never mad at them, we weren't there, didn't do anything. 76 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:23,880 All lied. 77 00:06:23,940 --> 00:06:26,080 It's like Epstein Island is Hooters. 78 00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:35,500 And the entire power structure of the world is saying, yeah, I was just there 79 00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:36,500 for the wings. 80 00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:47,140 This, and you sort of, the Bill Gates one. Now, I don't know if this is true. 81 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,300 This is a claim. We're not saying this is true. This is an, by the way, this 82 00:06:50,380 --> 00:06:54,200 Epstein wrote an email to himself. I didn't even know that was a thing. 83 00:06:55,780 --> 00:06:57,960 I've never, do you write emails to yourself? 84 00:06:58,220 --> 00:07:04,240 I've never done, okay. Wrote an email to himself claiming that Bill Gates was 85 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,620 worried that he got an STD from one of the Russian girls, and he wanted Epstein 86 00:07:08,620 --> 00:07:12,600 to hook him up with an antibiotic that could slip into his wife's coffee. 87 00:07:16,910 --> 00:07:20,470 All the sleazy things I've ever heard, and of all the people, not to have 88 00:07:20,470 --> 00:07:21,570 antivirus protection. 89 00:07:29,110 --> 00:07:30,110 Oh, 90 00:07:30,950 --> 00:07:37,070 we make 91 00:07:37,070 --> 00:07:40,610 little jokes, all in good fun. 92 00:07:42,020 --> 00:07:44,400 But there's another person in the Epstein files. 93 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,540 We saw this last week. We reported it. Elon Musk also got caught lying red 94 00:07:49,540 --> 00:07:54,020 -handed. You know, first it was, I didn't want to go there. I said no, and 95 00:07:54,020 --> 00:07:55,520 it turns out, when is the good party? 96 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:04,720 But maybe this is... Maybe why this is Elon seemed a little down this 97 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,120 week, because he tweeted out, whoever said money can't buy happiness really 98 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:10,360 knows what they're talking about. 99 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:22,340 On the upside, it can buy ketamine. All right, well, we've got a great show. We 100 00:08:22,340 --> 00:08:26,140 have former Governor Chris Christie and former Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, 101 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,360 Christopher Leland. But first up, he is a rock and roll Hall of Fame singer 102 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,840 -songwriter. His 19 -day dancing world tour, The Greatest Hits, kicks off this 103 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,220 summer. The icon, John Mellencamp, is here. 104 00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:01,300 Please, you'll give him a big head, and he already has a big head. 105 00:09:03,220 --> 00:09:04,420 That's coming from him. 106 00:09:06,940 --> 00:09:07,940 That's coming from him. 107 00:09:08,980 --> 00:09:09,959 All right. 108 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,360 Actually, he's really funny. 109 00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:12,499 Yeah, well. 110 00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:17,320 Yeah. He used to be a comedian, right? Yeah, well, I'm going to give it a shot. 111 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,920 He used to be a comedian, right? Listen, we have only, yes, I remember you 112 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,220 coming to see me in Indiana. 113 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,600 And in Indiana, where it's pretty red. 114 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:34,100 You went over like... Yeah, people like to... Yeah. It's real, like you. 115 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:41,480 And I remember... And I remember... This has got to be at 116 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,840 least 10 years ago. And we took a picture after the show and we looked at 117 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,660 you went, who are these two old fucks? 118 00:09:49,860 --> 00:09:54,360 Well, let me ask you a question. Yeah. Could you have ever imagined that you 119 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,600 would be your age still doing what you're doing? 120 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,780 Are you talking about the show or my social life? 121 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,740 I try to keep away from your social life. 122 00:10:07,180 --> 00:10:11,500 I try to keep away from your social life. No, I just turned 70. So, like, 123 00:10:11,500 --> 00:10:18,140 know, anytime... Anytime you're 70 124 00:10:18,140 --> 00:10:20,640 and the headline isn't, he succumbed to... 125 00:10:25,900 --> 00:10:28,120 But look who I'm talking to, the ultimate health nut. 126 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,840 I mean, you're about to go on this tour, so you're getting in shape for the 127 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,900 tour. We have to talk about the tour, but first I just want to show the video. 128 00:10:36,900 --> 00:10:40,140 mean, we don't have to listen to it, but there you are on the treadmill, 129 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,460 smoking. 130 00:10:44,380 --> 00:10:47,700 And I appreciate you not for the ten minutes we're out here, because I know 131 00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:48,700 that's not easy for you. 132 00:10:50,830 --> 00:10:55,150 So tell me about this, because when I saw that, it's not the typical way 133 00:10:55,150 --> 00:10:56,510 thinks of being on the treadmill. 134 00:10:57,910 --> 00:10:58,910 It's a joke. 135 00:11:02,290 --> 00:11:09,030 Is it? It's a joke. Yes, of course. But I tell you, in the 80s, I'd be on 136 00:11:09,030 --> 00:11:10,030 tour. 137 00:11:10,330 --> 00:11:14,650 And back then, you know, smoking wasn't frowned upon. 138 00:11:14,870 --> 00:11:17,750 No. But I would actually go into gyms and work out. 139 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,600 And then take a break and smoke and work out some more. 140 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:27,560 Well, you know, it's changed your voice. I mean, there's two yous in my iPod. 141 00:11:27,560 --> 00:11:31,680 There's like the early you, John Cougar, and then John Cougar Mellencamp. 142 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:39,000 By the way, what was the story with Cougar? You changed it. They made you 143 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,760 that name. I forget what the deal was. 144 00:11:41,580 --> 00:11:46,800 I was 21 years old, fresh out of college, fresh in New York. 145 00:11:47,449 --> 00:11:54,350 And I went through the same manager that managed Main Man, managed 146 00:11:54,350 --> 00:12:00,930 David Bowie, and it turned out that the girl behind the desk was from Indiana. 147 00:12:02,110 --> 00:12:06,990 So it kind of gave me an in real quick, because I was just going to drop off a 148 00:12:06,990 --> 00:12:08,090 fucking tape, you know. 149 00:12:08,510 --> 00:12:12,330 And I thought that'd be it. But she... 150 00:12:13,130 --> 00:12:16,470 I noticed I was from Indiana, so we talked about it. So immediately, I had a 151 00:12:16,470 --> 00:12:20,490 meeting. I mean, I walked in cold, and I had a meeting, and next thing I know, 152 00:12:20,670 --> 00:12:27,230 they're flying me back to New York, and then I make a demo tape that I thought 153 00:12:27,230 --> 00:12:31,310 was a demo tape, and I walk in, and they had a picture, and they said, this is 154 00:12:31,310 --> 00:12:34,370 the album cover, Johnny Cougar, and I went, no. 155 00:12:36,190 --> 00:12:39,350 I mean, they gave you that name without even asking you? Oh, yeah. 156 00:12:39,870 --> 00:12:41,790 But you obviously went along with it. 157 00:12:42,170 --> 00:12:43,350 Here's my choices, Bill. 158 00:12:44,270 --> 00:12:45,890 You can either go back to Indiana. 159 00:12:46,430 --> 00:12:51,050 Yeah. Or you can be Johnny Cougar. I mean, I was pissed off. I got up and 160 00:12:51,050 --> 00:12:53,290 out. I said, I'm not doing this. 161 00:12:53,510 --> 00:12:54,510 Well, give this shit. Yeah. 162 00:12:54,690 --> 00:12:55,930 Does it matter what your name is? 163 00:12:56,170 --> 00:12:57,170 It matters. 164 00:12:57,750 --> 00:13:01,970 Well, plainly it didn't. No, it did. It matters. 165 00:13:02,450 --> 00:13:05,970 Why? You sold records as John Cougar. You sold records as John Cougar 166 00:13:05,970 --> 00:13:08,050 Mellencamp. You sold records as John Mellencamp. 167 00:13:08,290 --> 00:13:09,490 The songs were okay. 168 00:13:18,060 --> 00:13:23,660 And the critics did not like it. They thought it was cornball. They liked Bad 169 00:13:23,660 --> 00:13:28,340 Bunny. It's kind of a corny name. I mean, I don't have anything against the 170 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,320 but it is a funny name. 171 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,640 Yeah, almost all rock acts have funny names. 172 00:13:38,060 --> 00:13:41,020 I mean, what are the Shondells? 173 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:43,760 Anyway. 174 00:13:49,060 --> 00:13:53,140 Before we run out of time with what we do, we were together two hours 175 00:13:53,140 --> 00:13:54,500 bullshitting like this on Wednesday. 176 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,720 Let's talk about what's important, which is that you were going back on tour and 177 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,720 you were playing all your hits. And we talked about this and I didn't 178 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,660 because when I saw you, I thought you were playing all hits anyway. 179 00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:09,380 Like, I don't know anymore, like, what's a hit. When I was 12, I kept a survey. 180 00:14:09,540 --> 00:14:13,240 I knew what was a hit. I just thought every song you did was great when I saw 181 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:17,780 you. But apparently, you were only playing a few of your big hits. And now 182 00:14:17,780 --> 00:14:22,000 you're going to play all your hits. You said you haven't for 17 years. Why have 183 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:28,960 you been depriving us of playing the hits for 17 years? Well, let's, you 184 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:35,060 I am proud to say, and I'm the luckiest guy in the world, I have had, and I just 185 00:14:35,060 --> 00:14:39,920 found this out today because I called my manager. I said, how many hit records 186 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,460 have I had? And I've had 46. 187 00:14:45,940 --> 00:14:49,860 That's a very 188 00:14:49,860 --> 00:14:53,820 long show you're going to do. 189 00:14:55,730 --> 00:14:57,050 Two and a half hours. 190 00:14:57,270 --> 00:14:59,750 Two and a half hours, but you can't get all 46 in there. 191 00:14:59,950 --> 00:15:03,670 No, but there's some songs like, this time I think I'm really in love, 192 00:15:03,670 --> 00:15:04,670 not going to make it. 193 00:15:06,470 --> 00:15:11,370 Well, when I saw you, you played Jack and Diane, and you prefaced it by saying 194 00:15:11,370 --> 00:15:15,110 to the audience, you know, I wrote this, it was kind of a toss -off, I didn't 195 00:15:15,110 --> 00:15:19,470 think it was great, but people, we all still love it so much, that you said, 196 00:15:19,570 --> 00:15:23,550 well, here it is, I'm going to have to play this. In the original writing of 197 00:15:23,550 --> 00:15:26,020 Jack and Diane, Jack was black. 198 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,120 He was a black guy. 199 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:29,359 Not Jack Black. 200 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:30,360 Jack was black. 201 00:15:32,460 --> 00:15:35,100 And what? What do you mean the original? 202 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,680 They'll tell me the record company got involved here, too. 203 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,060 Yes. Really? 204 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,540 Oh, yeah. Well, see, now that's a little different than just changing your name. 205 00:15:42,700 --> 00:15:43,259 I know. 206 00:15:43,260 --> 00:15:44,260 That's what I thought. 207 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:49,500 Right. That's what I thought. I didn't like it, and I actually didn't even want 208 00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:51,620 to put it on the record after that happened. 209 00:15:52,900 --> 00:15:53,900 However... 210 00:15:54,410 --> 00:16:00,910 They tested it to a bunch of radio stations, and it tested really good. So 211 00:16:00,910 --> 00:16:06,170 thought, well, you know, I can sacrifice a little bit here and there. 212 00:16:06,370 --> 00:16:10,830 And where would you imagine Jack and Diane are today, 40 years later? 213 00:16:11,050 --> 00:16:15,790 What is their life? What are they doing? My record company is making, 214 00:16:16,050 --> 00:16:22,870 there's a Broadway show that's starting in Maine in a few 215 00:16:22,870 --> 00:16:25,180 months. And it's called Small Town. 216 00:16:25,380 --> 00:16:27,280 And it's the story of Jack and Diane. 217 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,320 And Diane... Yeah, it's a good idea. 218 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,040 And Diane is Mexican -American. 219 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:45,380 And Jack's dad is rich and is polluting the water in this small 220 00:16:45,380 --> 00:16:49,420 town by his business. So it's not like, you know... 221 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,920 What do they call those things? 222 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:53,560 I don't know. Bad movies? 223 00:16:53,860 --> 00:16:54,860 Shitty movies. 224 00:16:59,460 --> 00:17:05,000 Okay, so, you know, the other iconic line, I mean, you have so many. 225 00:17:05,380 --> 00:17:07,500 You fight authority and you never win. 226 00:17:07,900 --> 00:17:12,780 That was always in my walk -in music when I was performing before the 227 00:17:12,780 --> 00:17:16,240 would walk in. I wanted them to hear that. It sort of set the tone for what I 228 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,179 wanted to do. 229 00:17:17,180 --> 00:17:18,520 But life goes on. 230 00:17:19,180 --> 00:17:24,000 Long after the thrill is... Living is gone. Living is gone. 231 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:31,120 The things you write at 25, when you're then half a century down the road, I 232 00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:36,220 mean, what do you think about with that? When you say, where was my head then, 233 00:17:36,340 --> 00:17:39,260 and how much has that resonated with me now? 234 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:40,480 I'm not that smart. 235 00:17:42,620 --> 00:17:44,040 I'm just not that smart. 236 00:17:44,360 --> 00:17:46,080 Songs, you know... 237 00:17:46,890 --> 00:17:49,970 What I found out is that I don't try to control the songs. 238 00:17:50,290 --> 00:17:53,710 I don't sit there and go, I am going to write a song about Bill Maher. 239 00:17:55,130 --> 00:17:59,690 Songs just come to you, and they're sent. I know this sounds screwed up to 240 00:17:59,690 --> 00:18:02,070 audience and everybody, but it's true. 241 00:18:02,710 --> 00:18:07,390 I'll be doing something, like, you know, painting. I'll be painting, and all of 242 00:18:07,390 --> 00:18:12,690 a sudden I'll get an idea for a song, and I'll go, I don't want to. Not now. 243 00:18:12,890 --> 00:18:13,890 I'm painting. 244 00:18:14,150 --> 00:18:16,230 And then, and then. 245 00:18:16,780 --> 00:18:17,900 It was like, well, fuck. 246 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,440 Then I'll throw my paintbrush down and go get my guitar, and I'll write what 247 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:23,600 I've done. 248 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:28,260 So I don't really, you know, I don't know what half the songs I've written 249 00:18:28,260 --> 00:18:29,500 about. I do. 250 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,500 We were talking about this the other day. I remember them better than you do, 251 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:35,560 but that's okay. 252 00:18:36,420 --> 00:18:37,660 You know what? 253 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:43,160 That's absolutely true. Him and I were talking, and he started saying lyrics to 254 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:44,900 me, and it was like, where'd you hear those at? 255 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:52,460 But I've made 36 albums. Yeah, yeah. I get it. That's a lot of money. 256 00:18:56,380 --> 00:19:03,200 And, you know, this memory thing, it's not because of drugs. You 257 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,720 never did drugs. No. I mean, that was very rare in the music industry. I 258 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:08,940 done drugs since 1971. 259 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:10,600 Would you like to start? 260 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:11,640 No. 261 00:19:16,700 --> 00:19:22,040 I mean, would I not like to start? You wouldn't like to start, because me on 262 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,460 whiskey and drugs... Well, yeah, I know. 263 00:19:30,100 --> 00:19:32,460 Not good. A lot of fun. Not again. 264 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:39,560 Okay, so when you're writing a song, can you tell at the moment whether that's a 265 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:40,560 hit or not? 266 00:19:42,380 --> 00:19:43,380 Sometimes. 267 00:19:43,700 --> 00:19:45,780 Sometimes you can. I had a song. 268 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:49,680 called ROCK in the USA. 269 00:19:49,900 --> 00:19:50,900 Oh, yeah. 270 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,000 And I hated it. 271 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:58,120 I just thought, this is fucking stupid and silly and awful. 272 00:19:59,260 --> 00:20:00,660 So it's a true story, guys. 273 00:20:01,420 --> 00:20:04,560 I didn't want to put it on the record, but I made the mistake. I never let the 274 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,940 record companies hear my records until I present them to them. Because they have 275 00:20:08,940 --> 00:20:12,260 A andR people that want to come in and say, you need to do this, you need to do 276 00:20:12,260 --> 00:20:16,040 that. And I always say, no, no, no. They don't even ask me anymore. 277 00:20:16,750 --> 00:20:22,770 So anyway, I made the mistake of letting somebody hear ROCK, and they just went 278 00:20:22,770 --> 00:20:26,010 nuts. They said, that's the number one record. Well, it's not going to be on 279 00:20:26,010 --> 00:20:28,570 album because it didn't fit on the album. 280 00:20:29,470 --> 00:20:32,950 Back when albums had like a theme and, you know. 281 00:20:34,050 --> 00:20:35,830 So I arm wrestled the guy. 282 00:20:38,690 --> 00:20:41,170 And we tied. 283 00:20:44,469 --> 00:20:49,070 So I had to put it on the record. And you're going to play it on this tour. 284 00:20:49,090 --> 00:20:54,390 yeah, yeah. Okay, that's what we're going to tell people. Every song is 285 00:20:54,390 --> 00:20:56,530 be a hit record. You should go see the show. 286 00:20:57,690 --> 00:20:58,690 I loved it. 287 00:20:59,250 --> 00:21:01,750 Johnny boy, good luck out there. 288 00:21:02,390 --> 00:21:04,330 I know I'll see you down the road again. 289 00:21:04,930 --> 00:21:06,470 You keep chasing rainbows. 290 00:21:07,630 --> 00:21:11,670 What are we doing? 291 00:21:13,550 --> 00:21:14,610 What are we gonna do? 292 00:21:15,030 --> 00:21:18,230 What are we doing? 293 00:21:44,300 --> 00:21:45,480 So we call Indiana friendly. 294 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,080 We never had that in 23 years of this show. All right. He is a former 295 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,540 governor of New Jersey. He is now a political and legal contributor for ABC 296 00:21:54,540 --> 00:21:56,160 News. Chris Christie back with you. 297 00:21:57,180 --> 00:21:58,780 Thank you for making that plane. 298 00:21:58,980 --> 00:22:00,080 I know it was not easy. 299 00:22:00,860 --> 00:22:05,680 Good to be here, man. Okay. She's the former deputy prime minister and 300 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,160 of finance of Canada. 301 00:22:07,740 --> 00:22:10,640 That great country, the Honorable Christopher Freeland. 302 00:22:11,340 --> 00:22:12,340 How you doing? 303 00:22:14,530 --> 00:22:15,530 Okay. 304 00:22:16,410 --> 00:22:18,650 I'm going to begin tonight with an admission. 305 00:22:19,010 --> 00:22:23,950 The most important story, I think, this week is Trump talking about how he 306 00:22:23,950 --> 00:22:26,730 thinks the Republican Party should take over elections. 307 00:22:27,050 --> 00:22:28,770 And we are going to talk about that. 308 00:22:29,010 --> 00:22:33,430 And that should be first, because it's the most important. But because, A, I'm 309 00:22:33,430 --> 00:22:34,430 ratings whore. 310 00:22:36,130 --> 00:22:37,170 Only ratings? 311 00:22:38,310 --> 00:22:39,310 Only ratings. 312 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,280 And also because this other issue, if we can call it that, I think will actually 313 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,920 have more effect on the elections. I do want to start with Epstein because it's 314 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,300 just you can't get away from it and you can't stop thinking about it. And I 315 00:22:52,300 --> 00:22:56,780 thought since it is primarily about the abuse of women, you should just have the 316 00:22:56,780 --> 00:22:58,680 first say on this and we won't say anything. 317 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:04,180 Wow. OK, thank you. I was actually going to insist on saying that if we didn't 318 00:23:04,180 --> 00:23:05,980 talk about women. So thank you very much, Bill. 319 00:23:06,980 --> 00:23:08,100 Yeah, it is. 320 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,340 There are so many aspects. 321 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:16,500 to what we've heard from all of these Epstein emails and texts and emails he 322 00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:17,500 writes himself. 323 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:24,200 But at the end of the day, it is a terrible story about what rich, 324 00:23:24,300 --> 00:23:31,040 powerful men, abetted by some women, do to vulnerable girls and young 325 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,640 women. And we have to remember that. 326 00:23:34,330 --> 00:23:39,290 And it can be a little bit trendy right now to say, oh, you know, feminism, it 327 00:23:39,290 --> 00:23:40,290 went too far. 328 00:23:41,010 --> 00:23:45,090 Do we need to now worry about the boys? And I have a son, I worry about him. 329 00:23:45,570 --> 00:23:52,150 But I think reading all of this horrible stuff should say to us, we need 330 00:23:52,150 --> 00:23:55,990 feminism, we need to stand up for girls and young women. 331 00:24:00,850 --> 00:24:03,330 For people who have not been... 332 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,400 Following it closely because it was a little fuzzy there for a while because 333 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,400 they released it and then there was more and then I thought it was out and it 334 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,940 was like, did you release it or didn't you? And they slow dragged it. 335 00:24:16,620 --> 00:24:22,060 What's come out in like the last week or so has changed the story a lot for me. 336 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,620 Like I said, we turned over this rock. 337 00:24:25,060 --> 00:24:26,900 It's not just a few bugs under there. 338 00:24:27,540 --> 00:24:29,640 It's like, who isn't under there? 339 00:24:29,860 --> 00:24:31,080 You're not in there. No. 340 00:24:34,570 --> 00:24:36,050 Are there any Canadians in there? 341 00:24:37,590 --> 00:24:38,730 This is what it's like. 342 00:24:39,170 --> 00:24:41,070 I'm going to be married 40 years next year. 343 00:24:42,230 --> 00:24:48,990 I know you don't apply that. No, no, I 344 00:24:48,990 --> 00:24:51,330 do. This is what it's like to be married 40 years. 345 00:24:52,150 --> 00:24:53,150 I'm not on there. 346 00:24:53,570 --> 00:24:55,210 And my wife said to me, 347 00:24:55,950 --> 00:24:57,190 how are you on there? 348 00:25:04,270 --> 00:25:09,370 The moment of not being able to win on that argument is like, I don't know. I 349 00:25:09,370 --> 00:25:10,370 didn't want to be. 350 00:25:10,530 --> 00:25:15,570 But look, as a father of daughters, that's the way it struck me this week. 351 00:25:15,650 --> 00:25:16,609 Right. 352 00:25:16,610 --> 00:25:20,370 Well, you know, I have a 29 -year -old daughter and a 22 -year -old daughter. 353 00:25:20,470 --> 00:25:24,070 And I think to myself, you know, this is why as fathers. 354 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:29,460 We have to be so supportive of our daughters so that their self -esteem 355 00:25:29,460 --> 00:25:34,960 from inside them, not from any man or someone else who is trying to make them 356 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:40,480 something that they think then will make them more acceptable, more socially 357 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:41,960 acceptable, or whatever. 358 00:25:42,780 --> 00:25:48,560 And when you see some of the guys that we all know, Bill, who are on this list, 359 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,220 and you think to yourself, you're rich, you're successful. 360 00:25:53,900 --> 00:25:54,900 You're doing this? 361 00:25:54,980 --> 00:25:58,180 Well, that's what I always said about this. I'm going to say it again. I said 362 00:25:58,180 --> 00:26:01,160 from the beginning. If there's a guy who has a lot of money and you don't know 363 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,460 where the money comes from, he's a pimp. 364 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:08,180 That's what this is all about. It's not because he was a witty conversationalist 365 00:26:08,180 --> 00:26:12,160 that they were hanging around him. He is a pussy whisperer. 366 00:26:12,580 --> 00:26:16,440 All these men who have all the power in the world, they have the money, the 367 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:21,040 prestige, the influence, and they have zero clue how to get a woman into bed. 368 00:26:21,900 --> 00:26:23,060 That's what this is about. 369 00:26:24,350 --> 00:26:27,270 Concierge service for people on the spectrum. 370 00:26:28,410 --> 00:26:34,490 And, you know, having known this, I have to also do a mea culpa to QAnon. 371 00:26:35,630 --> 00:26:41,790 QAnon, okay? I'm big enough to say, QAnon, you are more right about this 372 00:26:41,790 --> 00:26:43,950 admitted or lots of other people admitted. 373 00:26:44,370 --> 00:26:47,510 QAnon, and see, I'm always trying to find the grand bargain. 374 00:26:47,850 --> 00:26:50,750 You know, like, what can, I'm always trying to put something on the table 375 00:26:50,750 --> 00:26:52,710 says, okay, this is where I'm wrong. 376 00:26:53,390 --> 00:26:57,310 So how about something from you? So I'm going to do that tonight again, QAnon. 377 00:26:57,510 --> 00:26:59,910 I'm going to say, you were more right about this. 378 00:27:00,370 --> 00:27:02,890 But Democrats don't eat babies. 379 00:27:04,310 --> 00:27:06,030 Give us that one. 380 00:27:06,830 --> 00:27:10,610 Hillary didn't want a pedophile ring out of a pizza parlor. 381 00:27:11,070 --> 00:27:12,070 Okay? 382 00:27:12,490 --> 00:27:16,980 Yep. All right. I want to pick up on something that the governor said, 383 00:27:16,980 --> 00:27:19,860 thought that was very true and moving what you said about your daughter. 384 00:27:20,060 --> 00:27:22,140 I have two daughters. I thought about them. 385 00:27:23,460 --> 00:27:27,060 All those girls and young women were someone's daughter. 386 00:27:27,460 --> 00:27:34,340 And it is disgusting that really important, powerful, respected people 387 00:27:34,340 --> 00:27:35,340 see them that way. 388 00:27:35,420 --> 00:27:37,880 You know, the artist formerly known as Prince Andrew. 389 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:49,860 I look back on a clip of his getting ready for tonight when he was being 390 00:27:49,860 --> 00:27:53,020 interviewed by the BBC and they said, you knew this guy had been a convicted 391 00:27:53,020 --> 00:27:57,560 pedophile, you knew what he had been sent to jail for, yet you still went and 392 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,920 stayed with him at an apartment in New York. How do you explain that? And he 393 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,140 looked at the camera and said, it was a convenient place to stay. 394 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,720 And I think this gives a whole new definition of convenience, Bill. 395 00:28:08,820 --> 00:28:12,800 You know, this guy and these men like him. 396 00:28:13,890 --> 00:28:20,690 who believe they're entitled to that. And convenient is about being entitled 397 00:28:20,690 --> 00:28:24,310 entitled to do whatever they want to do to these girls. The arrogance of not 398 00:28:24,310 --> 00:28:29,050 even trying to hide it in the e -mails, that's what got to me about this. These 399 00:28:29,050 --> 00:28:32,710 are guys using their real name and saying these things. 400 00:28:33,010 --> 00:28:38,910 I mean, it's been a long time since we all learned if you don't want something 401 00:28:38,910 --> 00:28:39,930 on the front page. 402 00:28:40,540 --> 00:28:41,660 Don't put it in an email. 403 00:28:42,060 --> 00:28:43,240 Don't put it in a text. 404 00:28:43,580 --> 00:28:44,940 Everything is in the cloud. 405 00:28:45,660 --> 00:28:47,160 They did not care. 406 00:28:47,580 --> 00:28:53,980 And some of these people, these paragons of morale, now look, have powerful men 407 00:28:53,980 --> 00:28:56,360 always been bad like this? I'm sure they have. 408 00:28:56,740 --> 00:28:59,160 Genghis Khan, I'm sure, did his raping and pillaging. 409 00:29:00,220 --> 00:29:01,860 But he wasn't a phony about it. 410 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,200 He didn't pretend he was a good guy, I would imagine. 411 00:29:06,090 --> 00:29:10,010 Some of the people, Noam Chomsky, that was like the deal breaker for me. 412 00:29:10,230 --> 00:29:13,950 Noam Chomsky, Deepak, Deepak Chopra. 413 00:29:14,750 --> 00:29:17,910 Did you find me a cute Israeli? 414 00:29:19,050 --> 00:29:21,550 He says. This is in an email. 415 00:29:21,770 --> 00:29:24,650 And then they go on about it and just joke about it. 416 00:29:26,010 --> 00:29:29,930 You know, how can you listen to this guy as a guru after this? I'm sorry, I'm 417 00:29:29,930 --> 00:29:34,050 not trying to pick on him. I know him. He seems like a nice guy. But obviously 418 00:29:34,050 --> 00:29:39,970 there's this other side to this Peter Attia guy who people watch him on 60 419 00:29:39,970 --> 00:29:45,070 Minutes recently, this great guru of health. And he's saying some of the... 420 00:29:45,070 --> 00:29:46,070 man. What? 421 00:29:46,130 --> 00:29:51,440 Some of his stuff was like... I go into Jeffrey Epstein withdrawal when I don't 422 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,300 see him, he says. The problem with becoming friends with you, he says to 423 00:29:55,300 --> 00:29:59,400 Epstein, the life you lead is so outrageous, and yet I can't tell a soul. 424 00:30:01,260 --> 00:30:02,260 That's terrible. 425 00:30:03,420 --> 00:30:05,280 But you know what? They're not nice guys. 426 00:30:05,980 --> 00:30:09,880 Like, Bill, you can't do this and be a nice guy. 427 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,980 For nice guys, they have that moment when it's presented to them, they go, I 428 00:30:19,980 --> 00:30:21,020 can't do that. 429 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:22,680 No way. 430 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:29,340 And these guys, whether it's Deepak or Noam or Peter or Tia, you know what? 431 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,520 They're engaged in this stuff. They're not nice guys. They're fakes. 432 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:38,240 Totally right. 433 00:30:38,540 --> 00:30:44,500 But I think what it also says is feminists have a point. 434 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,900 This horrible, it's true though, like this horrible stuff is happening. 435 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:55,040 to young women and girls, and we have to make it unacceptable. 436 00:30:55,580 --> 00:30:59,200 And we have to say, this is not okay. 437 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:06,580 And we have to make it possible for young women and 438 00:31:06,580 --> 00:31:09,980 girls to live in the world without this horrible stuff happening to them. And 439 00:31:09,980 --> 00:31:13,720 the people who do this need to be shamed, and they need to be punished. 440 00:31:20,590 --> 00:31:23,310 I think a lot of these guys, Epstein was the pimp. 441 00:31:23,670 --> 00:31:27,570 But that doesn't mean he was setting them up with someone who was underage. 442 00:31:27,570 --> 00:31:31,930 himself was plainly with underage girls. Because you see this over and over 443 00:31:31,930 --> 00:31:36,830 again. And so, to me, there's a couple of moral failings. One is just, you 444 00:31:36,830 --> 00:31:40,130 being involved with this guy. The other is, over and over, you see in these 445 00:31:40,130 --> 00:31:42,650 emails this kind of winkingness. 446 00:31:43,679 --> 00:31:47,880 They joke about, you know, Jeffrey with his young kid. That girl you were with 447 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,320 last time was a little naughty. 448 00:31:49,700 --> 00:31:53,540 You know, just as if it was the kind of things we would just kid each other 449 00:31:53,540 --> 00:31:57,820 about, like, oh, Chris loves playing golf too much. You know, that kind of 450 00:31:57,820 --> 00:32:02,920 stuff. And that, to me, is almost skeevier. Bring your harem. 451 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,100 Yeah, bring your harem. Bring your harem. 452 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:09,500 You know, that kind of stuff. No, you're right. It was like that funny comment 453 00:32:09,500 --> 00:32:12,960 of John Mellencamp's where he was like, Yeah, I'm smoking on the treadmill. 454 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:14,180 It's a joke. 455 00:32:14,660 --> 00:32:17,960 And this stuff is not a joke. No, it isn't. Okay. 456 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:23,880 Well, I read this week 457 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:30,160 that ICE is pulling out Minnesota a lot. It's a good segue. 458 00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:38,440 Moving on to another topic. And there's been a lot of, well, I'm getting to the 459 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:39,700 segue that involves you. 460 00:32:40,250 --> 00:32:45,690 It involves me. Yes, because I know you're the world's biggest Bruce 461 00:32:45,690 --> 00:32:48,970 fan. Yeah. And he put out a protest record about ice. 462 00:32:49,810 --> 00:32:52,250 Okay. It was called Streets of Minneapolis. 463 00:32:52,830 --> 00:32:56,210 And a number of other people have done it. I'm not that familiar with some of 464 00:32:56,210 --> 00:32:57,210 these other artists. 465 00:32:57,250 --> 00:33:01,190 But what I found out is that, of course, in this country, just like with the 466 00:33:01,190 --> 00:33:03,930 Super Bowl halftime show, nothing is ever. 467 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,360 on one side. So now there's certain artists, I don't know who they are, but 468 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,780 they're putting out some pro -ice songs. 469 00:33:11,100 --> 00:33:14,600 It's not just, the bag is never going to leave anything unanswered. Would you 470 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:15,600 like to hear some of them? 471 00:33:15,940 --> 00:33:19,180 Pro -ice songs, these are different songs. 472 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,380 For instance, there's I Will Always Shove You. 473 00:33:30,710 --> 00:33:33,450 If I had a hammer, I'd use it to smash your windshield. 474 00:33:39,450 --> 00:33:41,330 Where the streets have no shame. 475 00:33:45,950 --> 00:33:48,910 I've gotten you under my chin. 476 00:33:51,150 --> 00:33:58,090 I can't feel my face because you maced it. 477 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:05,700 Booked on a feeling. 478 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,320 Baby got sent back. 479 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,420 No longer working at the car wash. 480 00:34:31,690 --> 00:34:35,690 Last week, I did a whole thing here at the end of the show about how 481 00:34:35,690 --> 00:34:39,870 are not good for the Democratic Party. I think the Democrats should cut loose 482 00:34:39,870 --> 00:34:41,730 their celebrities. I don't think they're helping. 483 00:34:41,949 --> 00:34:43,730 I don't think people see them as relatable. 484 00:34:44,090 --> 00:34:49,409 I don't think anyone people think knows about their problems, even when they're 485 00:34:49,409 --> 00:34:53,230 always making political pronouncements. And then I watched the Grammys, and I 486 00:34:53,230 --> 00:34:56,489 saw Justin Bieber singing in his underwear. 487 00:34:58,860 --> 00:35:05,100 I saw Chapel Roan there holding her dress up with nipple clips, and I saw 488 00:35:05,100 --> 00:35:06,940 Gaga singing with a lampshade on her head. 489 00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:11,620 So I guess I was way off on that. 490 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:17,180 But apparently they did not hear me at the Grammys. 491 00:35:20,380 --> 00:35:26,120 Billie Eilish, there's a big controversy this week. She said there's no illegals 492 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:27,900 on stolen land. 493 00:35:28,910 --> 00:35:34,510 And she said, it's hard to know what to say, which I would say then don't say 494 00:35:34,510 --> 00:35:38,810 anything because you don't know things. So you didn't go to school, I don't 495 00:35:38,810 --> 00:35:40,570 think, and you don't know facts. 496 00:35:41,910 --> 00:35:46,990 She said, keep fighting and protesting and speaking up. I totally agree with 497 00:35:46,990 --> 00:35:51,450 that. She said, voices matter, people matter. And I would just say, so does 498 00:35:51,450 --> 00:35:55,920 knowledge. And I mean, I would just like to know where, and this is especially 499 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,720 important for you because Canada has been facing this issue with indigenous 500 00:35:59,720 --> 00:36:00,720 peoples. 501 00:36:01,980 --> 00:36:07,880 And it can go beyond just the virtue signaling of saying something because 502 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:13,760 they're sort of taking it seriously now in Canada with repossessing land for 503 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:14,760 indigenous peoples. 504 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:21,020 What is the practical next step if you say that there's no such thing as... 505 00:36:21,180 --> 00:36:23,080 illegal people on stolen land. 506 00:36:23,300 --> 00:36:28,520 Okay, now, of course, immediately the people, the tribe here in California 507 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:29,520 for her house. 508 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,760 Which I thought was pretty great. 509 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:40,180 But what is the practical next step? This is my problem always with things 510 00:36:40,180 --> 00:36:42,100 this from the left that are so performative. 511 00:36:42,380 --> 00:36:47,080 Okay, even if we agreed with that stolen land, yes, lots of land is stolen, by 512 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,120 the way, not just here, but okay, so it is. 513 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:50,780 What do we do about that? 514 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:55,780 We give it all back and go back to living in teepees? What is the practical 515 00:36:55,780 --> 00:36:56,780 step? 516 00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:02,220 Well, look, Bill, what I would first say is in Canada, the situation is quite 517 00:37:02,220 --> 00:37:08,240 different from the U .S., and the vast majority of the relationships between 518 00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:14,680 indigenous people in Canada and the Crown are based on treaties, treaties 519 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,060 are legal documents, just like the land title I have to my house. 520 00:37:18,540 --> 00:37:23,120 And so a treaty -based relationship is important to honor. It's important to 521 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,460 work with. And I think Canada has made a lot of progress there. 522 00:37:26,740 --> 00:37:33,140 And where I would say the conversation has moved in Canada is towards 523 00:37:33,140 --> 00:37:34,480 Indigenous prosperity. 524 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:40,960 And the fact is, which is a terrible fact, Indigenous people in Canada are 525 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,240 underclass. They go to jail more. 526 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:44,440 They're poorer. 527 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,760 They die younger. They suffer more from addiction. And Canadians, who are the 528 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:51,280 great people of the world, treated them like shit, just like everybody treated 529 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:52,280 everybody like shit. 530 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,620 Exactly, right? And that happened in the past. 531 00:37:54,900 --> 00:38:00,060 And so what the focus— And we should acknowledge that and try to, in some 532 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:05,360 make reparations. Well, or what I would say is what we need, like certainly what 533 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:09,420 we've been working on in Canada and work that I did as finance minister is on 534 00:38:09,420 --> 00:38:10,420 indigenous prosperity. 535 00:38:10,830 --> 00:38:17,830 And so we created a $5 billion fund to support indigenous businesses working, 536 00:38:18,090 --> 00:38:25,010 indigenous businesses building their own prosperity, their own sources of 537 00:38:25,010 --> 00:38:31,310 wealth. And it actually works. So Keystone, the Keystone pipeline, the U 538 00:38:31,330 --> 00:38:32,790 hasn't managed to build. 539 00:38:33,230 --> 00:38:36,790 When I was finance minister, we built a pipeline, which is very important, 540 00:38:36,890 --> 00:38:41,530 diversifying Canada's economy, giving us access to the Pacific so we're not as 541 00:38:41,530 --> 00:38:45,430 dependent on the United States because you're not a very reliable boyfriend 542 00:38:45,430 --> 00:38:46,430 right now. 543 00:38:47,630 --> 00:38:54,310 And one of the reasons we were able to get that 544 00:38:54,310 --> 00:38:58,170 pipeline built, which the government built and still owns, is because we 545 00:38:58,170 --> 00:39:00,450 cooperated with all the indigenous people along the route. 546 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,260 So I would say make the conversation. I totally agree with you. Virtue signaling 547 00:39:05,260 --> 00:39:09,800 is yucky. People hate it. What you said about people liking you in Indiana is 548 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:14,620 right because you're real. But so if you care about the plight of indigenous 549 00:39:14,620 --> 00:39:19,220 people, then work to create economic conditions so they can prosper. I just 550 00:39:19,220 --> 00:39:25,340 to refocus this back on what the real issue is. Like, what do we actually do? 551 00:39:25,460 --> 00:39:28,880 Because let me read our friend David from he's from Canada on that. 552 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:32,700 He said, Canadians have learned that these well -meaning pronouncements are 553 00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:33,658 in fact harmless. 554 00:39:33,660 --> 00:39:38,800 Courts are reinterpreting these rote confessions of historical guilt as 555 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:45,380 enforceable. 800 acres south of downtown Vancouver must be subordinate to a 556 00:39:45,380 --> 00:39:48,240 group of about 5 ,000 indigenous Canadians. 557 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:52,880 They're talking about the land underneath Canada's parliament 558 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,000 And the irony here is... 559 00:39:55,500 --> 00:40:00,140 The value of this land has all gone down a lot because people are not sure 560 00:40:00,140 --> 00:40:03,140 whether it's going to be theirs to own in the future. 561 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:10,300 Yeah, I mean, look, first off, back to what you started with, which is, you 562 00:40:10,300 --> 00:40:16,420 know, these pronouncements from celebrities who, most of them, have not 563 00:40:16,420 --> 00:40:21,260 the time to even understand the first degree subtlety to these issues, let 564 00:40:21,260 --> 00:40:22,840 second or third degree subtlety, 565 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:29,780 has some of the problems it has because they latch themselves to these folks and 566 00:40:29,780 --> 00:40:36,760 then nod their heads and agree when stupid stuff like Billie Eilish said at 567 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:37,760 the Grammys. 568 00:40:37,860 --> 00:40:42,120 Two of my kids were home for the Grammys and forced me to watch this. 569 00:40:42,700 --> 00:40:44,620 Did they tie you down? No, 570 00:40:45,540 --> 00:40:50,780 they did the greatest thing you could ever do to a father. They took away the 571 00:40:50,780 --> 00:40:51,800 remote control from me. 572 00:40:53,770 --> 00:40:57,330 Took it from me and threw it back and forth to each other so that I couldn't 573 00:40:57,330 --> 00:41:03,430 it back. So I had to watch Lady Gaga with the lampshade on and Bieber and 574 00:41:03,430 --> 00:41:04,630 the Billie Eilish crap. 575 00:41:05,010 --> 00:41:11,990 But the fact is that off Canada and to America for a minute on 576 00:41:11,990 --> 00:41:14,710 this, you know, it's a complicated history. 577 00:41:14,990 --> 00:41:21,030 OK, you know, people got screwed along the way. Yes, we agree with that. But if 578 00:41:21,030 --> 00:41:22,250 what we're going to do today. 579 00:41:22,940 --> 00:41:28,120 is say these pronouncements and then have no real solution behind that 580 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:32,960 pronouncement. It's all bullshit. It reminds me of... It's such bullshit. 581 00:41:34,340 --> 00:41:39,320 It reminds me of what the Gaza protesters say, from the river to the 582 00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:43,860 that means either all of the Israelis die, which a lot of them would like, 583 00:41:43,860 --> 00:41:46,240 would be their choice, or they move. 584 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,320 All of Israel is going to move. 585 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:52,020 That's not going to happen. And Los Angeles is not going to move. 586 00:41:52,660 --> 00:41:56,640 And we're not going to give back New Mexico. We have to deal with the future, 587 00:41:56,720 --> 00:41:57,920 not just the past. 588 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,100 Okay. Can I say one small thing? Yes, please. 589 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,680 So, look, I think you're totally right. 590 00:42:02,980 --> 00:42:08,820 And we also can't, like, I really don't want to be, like, the boring, 591 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:10,640 progressive Canadian tonight. 592 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:11,980 Okay. Okay, good. 593 00:42:15,540 --> 00:42:19,380 And Indigenous people, although Canadians are in favor of both. 594 00:42:20,340 --> 00:42:25,020 But, like, look, we progressives, we liberals, we can't present a vision of 595 00:42:25,020 --> 00:42:27,620 countries that disenfranchises everybody. 596 00:42:27,860 --> 00:42:31,500 We can't say to people, you're not allowed to have your house. Your house 597 00:42:31,500 --> 00:42:35,020 stolen land. People then will not support us, and they will be right not 598 00:42:35,020 --> 00:42:40,680 support us. But what really bugs me about this whole controversy is I 599 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,560 was powerful that some of those... 600 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:49,080 award winners at the Grammys did speak about ICE. And I agree with you broadly, 601 00:42:49,240 --> 00:42:53,340 Bill, that celebrities should not be the leaders of political movements. 602 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,940 But I think it would have been wrong for them not to comment on this really 603 00:42:57,940 --> 00:42:59,480 horrible thing happening. I agree to disagree. 604 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:06,500 Finally, like I promised, we need to get to this, the most important issue. 605 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:11,960 Trump said if they can't count the votes legally and honestly, then somebody 606 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,540 else. should take over. Like Tim. 607 00:43:15,140 --> 00:43:20,300 Well, take over in 15 states. Let me guess which ones. The ones you lost? 608 00:43:21,819 --> 00:43:25,560 First of all, you know, I'm the slow -moving cool guy. I'm the one who said 609 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,600 about him originally, okay, before he won the first election, okay? So I have 610 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,240 standing here. I think this is just another phase of this. 611 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:36,080 But I just want to know, you're a lawyer. You've been in government your 612 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:41,680 life. I don't even know what this means that the GOP should take over elections. 613 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:43,520 What does that actually mean? 614 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:49,020 view of my memory, maybe my dream of what an election is, is there observers 615 00:43:49,020 --> 00:43:53,400 from both parties in the room when they're counting the votes? Okay, does 616 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,600 mean now no Democrats in that room? Is that what this means? 617 00:43:56,860 --> 00:44:01,040 No, it means that once they're counted by both, then they get to recount them 618 00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:05,660 case it doesn't work out the way they want to. I mean, look, it's ridiculous. 619 00:44:05,860 --> 00:44:11,520 In my state, we have, in every county of our 21 counties, we have two 620 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:15,700 Republicans. and two Democrats in the room when every vote is being counted. 621 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:21,640 And, you know, the president said the other day, after all, states are just 622 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,160 agents of the federal government. 623 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,720 And I'm like, this is the most liberal guy I've ever seen. 624 00:44:28,980 --> 00:44:34,360 I mean, you want to talk about a guy who has no philosophy at all. He's wearing 625 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:39,020 the Republican coat. But any real Republican would say, are you crazy? 626 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,180 This is not what we want. 627 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:48,540 We have states who have their own rights. And, you know, Article 1, 628 00:44:48,540 --> 00:44:51,740 the Constitution says that the states run the election. 629 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:56,900 But that doesn't matter to him. He sent his director of national intelligence, 630 00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:01,040 which I don't know what even has to do with this, down to Fulton County, 631 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:05,820 Georgia. That's the area, I guess, where the votes he thinks... 632 00:45:06,030 --> 00:45:09,970 were miscounted. They were counted three times because, as we know, he called up 633 00:45:09,970 --> 00:45:11,950 and said, I need you to fine vote. 634 00:45:12,250 --> 00:45:15,510 I mean, to me, that was like the most smoking gun thing ever. And the last 635 00:45:15,510 --> 00:45:19,910 by hand. They counted them all by hand. Three times they counted, but we're 636 00:45:19,910 --> 00:45:22,030 going to count it until somebody gets it right. 637 00:45:23,710 --> 00:45:28,870 Yeah, and look, he, we understand this, Bill, like about him. 638 00:45:29,410 --> 00:45:31,830 This is all about his ego. 639 00:45:32,310 --> 00:45:34,510 He can't, and look, I don't blame him. 640 00:45:34,860 --> 00:45:37,160 I'd be pretty bummed out if I lost to Joe Biden, too. 641 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:43,740 But the fact is, he can't live with it. So he can't let it go. And he's going to 642 00:45:43,740 --> 00:45:47,540 keep going and going and going. And what it does in the process, which any 643 00:45:47,540 --> 00:45:52,760 responsible person would understand, is it makes people in the country think our 644 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:53,920 elections aren't on the level. 645 00:45:54,689 --> 00:45:58,330 And that's the damage he's doing. But he doesn't give a shit about doing that 646 00:45:58,330 --> 00:46:02,230 damage because all he wants to do is prove that every time he's in a contest, 647 00:46:02,230 --> 00:46:04,830 wins. Every building he likes, he can name after himself. 648 00:46:05,170 --> 00:46:09,410 Like, this is what he wants to do. And that's why he's not a good guy. Well, 649 00:46:09,490 --> 00:46:10,490 there's only three more years. 650 00:46:10,770 --> 00:46:12,470 All right. Time for new rules, everybody. 651 00:46:12,670 --> 00:46:13,670 New rules. 652 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:27,160 Now that Dove is collaborating with the Netflix show Bridgerton to release a 653 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:31,740 line of body washes and deodorant, they must get real about what people actually 654 00:46:31,740 --> 00:46:33,300 smelled like in 1813. 655 00:46:40,260 --> 00:46:43,080 Which was piss, shit, horse, and other people. 656 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,600 You think a thin layer of chamomile could do that kind of heavy lifting? 657 00:46:53,720 --> 00:46:55,340 Try a fire hose. 658 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:59,020 Just be thankful you can't smell the sex scenes. 659 00:47:00,580 --> 00:47:05,480 Newell, now that heavyweight boxer Jerome Miller had his toupee knocked off 660 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:11,740 the middle of his fight with Kingsley Ebay at Madison Square Garden, boxing 661 00:47:11,740 --> 00:47:13,380 must admit, that's new. 662 00:47:15,780 --> 00:47:16,920 I mean... 663 00:47:20,650 --> 00:47:24,510 I've seen the Real Housewives turn into a fight, but never a fight turn into the 664 00:47:24,510 --> 00:47:25,510 Real Housewives. 665 00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:37,710 We almost agree that when it comes to men doing the most perverted things, we 666 00:47:37,710 --> 00:47:38,710 have a winner. 667 00:47:39,670 --> 00:47:44,450 A hospital in France was evacuated last week after a man showed up with a World 668 00:47:44,450 --> 00:47:47,970 War I artillery shell stuck up his butt, which to me... 669 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:53,220 answers the question, why haven't aliens made contact with us yet? 670 00:48:00,660 --> 00:48:03,660 Because they just don't see us as a threat. 671 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,400 When their leader asks, should we be worried about the humans, the scouts 672 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,300 report, I don't think so.

And even then, it was still considered 712 00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:36,980 socially unacceptable, it took another 15 years before the mob opened the 713 00:51:36,980 --> 00:51:42,460 Flamingo. In the 1950s, there was a hit musical called Guys and Dolls, about a 714 00:51:42,460 --> 00:51:45,300 degenerate gambler, as all gamblers are degenerate. 715 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:52,080 Marlon Brando plays Sky Masterson, degenerate, because he would bet on 716 00:51:52,300 --> 00:51:55,200 like which sugar cube a fly would land on. 717 00:51:55,550 --> 00:51:59,170 Where the Lindys would sell more cheesecake or strudel. Crazy shit like 718 00:51:59,830 --> 00:52:01,690 Well, now that's called polymarket. 719 00:52:03,950 --> 00:52:05,490 It's the exact same thing. 720 00:52:09,310 --> 00:52:11,310 You bet on anything. 721 00:52:11,570 --> 00:52:16,410 Oscar winners, trial outcomes, when we bomb Iran, the weather, the color of the 722 00:52:16,410 --> 00:52:17,590 Gatorade at the game. 723 00:52:17,830 --> 00:52:21,290 How many minutes into halftime before ice grabs Big Bunny? 724 00:52:22,150 --> 00:52:23,510 I mean, Bad Bunny. 725 00:52:25,910 --> 00:52:26,910 Big bird. 726 00:52:27,650 --> 00:52:29,830 Big bunny. Big bunny next year. 727 00:52:31,210 --> 00:52:34,910 But let's go back to how we got here, because, okay. 728 00:52:35,330 --> 00:52:38,270 First, no gambling for 300 years. 729 00:52:38,490 --> 00:52:43,630 Then gambling in one place for another almost half century, until Atlantic 730 00:52:43,770 --> 00:52:45,450 Vegas with seagulls. 731 00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:51,360 But that was it. If you went broke in Vegas or Reno, you could try Atlantic 732 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,720 City, and if you lost your shirt there, you became president of the United 733 00:52:54,720 --> 00:52:55,720 States. 734 00:52:56,100 --> 00:52:59,660 But I 735 00:52:59,660 --> 00:53:06,660 guess there's just something about a business where people give you 736 00:53:06,660 --> 00:53:09,540 money for nothing that made it too hard to contain forever. 737 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:15,140 In 1964, New Hampshire became the first state where the politicians figured out 738 00:53:15,140 --> 00:53:16,620 they could avoid raising taxes. 739 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:22,280 If they had a state lottery, and now 45 states have that, with the money often 740 00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:27,220 promised to go to education, which is especially funny since it's mostly 741 00:53:27,220 --> 00:53:32,980 by people who think, huh, 99 .99999 % chance of losing. 742 00:53:33,380 --> 00:53:34,800 I like those odds. 743 00:53:42,570 --> 00:53:47,450 In 1971, off -track betting was legalized for the first time, and now 744 00:53:47,450 --> 00:53:48,450 states have that. 745 00:53:48,530 --> 00:53:54,410 In 1988, Congress okayed gambling on reservations as reparations to Native 746 00:53:54,410 --> 00:53:58,910 Americans, because what better way to make it up to the most spiritual people 747 00:53:58,910 --> 00:54:02,290 earth than by giving them a piece of the sleaziest business ever. 748 00:54:09,130 --> 00:54:10,790 But not just Indian lands. 749 00:54:11,030 --> 00:54:14,650 Also, for some reason, in 1989, riverboats. 750 00:54:16,210 --> 00:54:17,970 Riverboats, which never leave the dock. 751 00:54:18,690 --> 00:54:22,710 Because gambling is a scourge of society, but when you do it on an old 752 00:54:22,710 --> 00:54:24,390 boat with a steam paddle, it's fine. 753 00:54:25,870 --> 00:54:30,930 It's fine. It's like when we all pretended we had glaucoma so we could 754 00:54:30,930 --> 00:54:31,930 with a prescription. 755 00:54:38,190 --> 00:54:40,070 And then came the big one in 2018. 756 00:54:40,290 --> 00:54:45,030 The Supreme Court struck down the federal ban on sports betting. And then 757 00:54:45,030 --> 00:54:47,070 bets were off. Or actually on. 758 00:54:48,010 --> 00:54:52,770 Everywhere. Online, on your phone, before the game, during the game. 759 00:54:53,270 --> 00:54:55,470 ESPN is just OTB now. 760 00:54:55,670 --> 00:54:58,470 It's literally partnered with DraftKings. 761 00:54:58,810 --> 00:55:02,230 Professional sports leagues used to be scared to death to go anywhere near 762 00:55:02,230 --> 00:55:05,010 gambling. Now they have teams in Las Vegas. 763 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:10,080 Teams used to ban gamblers. Now Caesars Sportsbook is the official partner of 764 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:13,800 the New York Mets, which is crazy. Who would ever bet on the Mets? 765 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:26,700 So I got to ask, is this what we're doing now instead of having an actual 766 00:55:26,700 --> 00:55:31,540 economy? I get it. Too many people feel that even cloying their way to the 767 00:55:31,540 --> 00:55:32,700 middle class is impossible. 768 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:36,620 Forget fantasy football, owning a home, that's the real fantasy. 769 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:43,140 And yet, half of all millennials do own a home, and most of the gambling is done 770 00:55:43,140 --> 00:55:48,520 by really young men, to whom I say, why don't you let life kick you in the ass 771 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:49,780 before you give up on it? 772 00:55:56,040 --> 00:56:00,700 I'm sure that an afternoon doing scratch -offs at the gas station is a great way 773 00:56:00,700 --> 00:56:07,540 to signal to women, I'm not marriage material, but... But it's not a 774 00:56:07,540 --> 00:56:12,200 plan. Gambling isn't just bad because you lose the rent. It's bad because it 775 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:16,520 gives permission to stop believing that you control your destiny. 776 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,540 But this is still America, and you still do. 777 00:56:19,980 --> 00:56:23,900 When I was in college and wanted money, I didn't gamble, I got a job. 778 00:56:24,460 --> 00:56:25,800 Okay, it was selling drugs. 779 00:56:26,180 --> 00:56:31,340 But at least I wasn't just leaving my future to chance. 780 00:56:32,500 --> 00:56:37,680 That's not us. That's Eastern culture. I'm not putting it down, but it is more 781 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:41,300 fatalistic. In the Middle East, you can't say three words without someone 782 00:56:41,300 --> 00:56:42,880 responding, if God wills it. 783 00:56:43,620 --> 00:56:45,860 See you for lunch tomorrow. God willing. 784 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:47,160 Oh, for fuck's sake. 785 00:56:49,060 --> 00:56:51,520 Kismet. But this is why Macau. 786 00:56:51,950 --> 00:56:54,710 does three times the gambling business that Vegas does. 787 00:56:54,930 --> 00:56:58,930 It's why every movie with a foot face through Chinatown ends up in a basement 788 00:56:58,930 --> 00:57:00,490 full of guys playing Mahjong. 789 00:57:01,870 --> 00:57:06,650 It's why many Chinese restaurants have the word luck in their name. But that's 790 00:57:06,650 --> 00:57:07,649 not us. 791 00:57:07,650 --> 00:57:10,850 We're the we don't accept fate, we make it people. 792 00:57:11,230 --> 00:57:13,890 Not the we're up all night to get lucky people. 793 00:57:14,170 --> 00:57:16,610 All right, that's our show.
