Already? So here we are on a bench. Shapiro show Facebook alive, and I wanted to take this opportunity to really introduce you to Andrew claiming you heard me say his name on my show every day for two years, but you may never actually heard from men reclaiming directly. If you haven't, you need to go and check out his shows. Andrew thanks are joining appreciated. It's always a pleasure to sue as far where's your I know. It's amazing we're we're literally next door to each other or indifferent studios, which is just the way that we like it exactly. Sir Andrew I ain't gonna give a chance to make a picture for your show. So what do you think is it that makes your show different, then my shawl or knows noses execrable, show well I think that thing about the makes it over the gnoles is illiterate and an intelligent, Winnie Factor, but the holy brings. We note in into your ballpark, you're one of the big things is I've lived. My entire life basically is a novelist and the traits that novel aside, the super power that they have is basically observing an entire field of information is not so much. I don't know
you talk about. This policy is going to do this. This tax, God is gonna, go here or there it's more talking about the culture and where things stand in a kind of big picture way, which is incredibly important, because that's the thing that so much of the media is trying to maneuver violate the media's, always trying to manipulate your imaginative world to end put it out of joint with the real world and what I'm trying Do you get your imaginative world back in running with the real world, so what you are saying, what you're thinking about the same thing sought this weekend? If you were paying attention this weekend, it was one crisis after another that simply
doesn't happen at your children are being murdered in their schools everywhere. It's not happening, you know, Trump is going insane, he's no warrants after what's it he's pretty exactly as it was before, the Russians have taken over our elections just not happening, and so we have a culture. Basically, one by the left wing is trying to manipulate the people's imagination, to see the world from a left wing perspective, and what I M trying to do is get them to see the world, as actually is. One of the things we haven't was into drew show that it really is is, I think, a specialty is because he's a constructive of narrative professionally is also deconstruct or of narrative, professional and essentially, what to show it has taken these narratives in Britain and down in showing how their false wanted the narrative and we ve been getting from Hollywood consistently is, of course, America is an awful terrible, sexist racist, bigoted place. The number one movie at the Box office demonstrated just how racist we are over the weekend black Panther made of Julian dollars, when every white person in America went to see it and then take a picture of them self in front of the poster. Nor to demonstrate their vote affinities what what do you make of it
fact that black Panther did so well the box office, and also I love you seen the film, but if he had any thoughts on it, when I'm I'm the only person, I know who hasn't seen, and so I think I may be the race last racist in America, because I just didn't. I dont, like superhero movies, that much and I really think that they are kind of infantilism mean there are exceptions, are great superhero movies, like Logan, was a terrific one, some of the old, the dark night films. I really liked, but you know the problem. A superhero films is that their basically about heroics without tragedy. if you have a character like Superman, you have all these basic super owes. You know that you're not risky tat much when they go and take on the gigantic monster. Plus the gigantic monster has no real personality, he's not a Muslim, he doesn't has not George Soros. He doesn't have a fuller, utopian philosophy. They never have.
To engage with the world as it is, and you can say yes, we ve had childlike genres before maybe the western, but you have to remember the ten or fifteen great westerns rise out of a general of just absolute trash which, in the west to the western was, as for Hollywood, lecturing us about anything. It is, it is amazing, to me I mean this: you I've been complaining for years that the right doesn't get involved enough in culture and the side of that is of course, the left black lists us. It keeps us out of culture me if you ve ever set of right wing thing, a Hollywood meeting. You know the next place you or is in the parking lot flip side of that is. This culture is completely the left's creation they are, the ones who have torn down the barriers between the sexes, You say there are no rules to sexuality. It's just do whatever you want to do. They're, the ones who told women they didn't have to be modest. They could treat sex the same way as men than the ones who told men they didn't have to be protected for strong. They could be weak. They could. I
return themselves into women, and then there are the ones who complain when the culture throws up the stuff. Gonna throw up when you remove those barriers, they are the ones who say hey how come women are being abused. All of the blacks who created a culture in which that's gonna happen. How can people are shooting each other all the time when you are the ones who said that we did not worry about gangster rap. We didn't have to worry about people's screaming violent, vile things over our radios, Nay created this culture
the ones who now our wagging their fingers and lecturing us about it, which at least as good for comic relief from related folksy. Listen my show and have not listened to show that a lot of people who do us into both of our shows what we usually get is that they take mine is down and they take your sets. An upper. That's because drew's show is a lot more optimistic in in tone and tender than mine. His actual theme song contains the line. Life is Hickey vote, which is actually a t shirt. I believe at this point so drew what makes you so optimistic about the state of american life at this point, when, apparently, all is in the toilet, we're all going to die and and nuclear hellfire will reign, and all of us from North Korea what it'll? Actually I think things are going fantastic, Zoe. Well, you know, I think, that I think that we're going forward and scientific ways that are insane Euro Hungary virtually been alive eliminated disease has been cut back, so things are actually going well, but I think that real difference between you and me. I think, you're more than idealists than I am as a novelist. I've always been kind of a tree
today, and I always look at the world as a sad place. We're things ultimately go wrong. All people die all cultures for aka. That's just means that every day that I'm still here it's a celebration. I once told you that new wake up every day, angry that it's not nineteen, fifty six and I wake up everyday thankful. That is not nineteen. Thirty six take them, that's just it! I'm expecting. I always expected of a certain amount of the worst because of. By the way I look at human beings and the way I look at history, but that means that this is a great day and conservatives are like doctors in the end we know we lose. You know every doctor he's gonna lose his patient, but every day that we win is. It is a good day and you only have to win this day and night
right now. I think we're winning like crazy as our own president might, in my own defence, nineteen, fifty six without the segregation and with women in the workplace, and I get correction before the left Jones fix it. I look like I can offer us an entire narrative out of old what well that's the Andrew Clay Venture and you should give that a listen.
