5:51
Libel's written, slander's spoken, right?
5:53
Yeah, you get it.
5:54
But I watched every second of this trial.
5:57
The people who think Patrick did it, framed him, and actually committed the murders can only be two things.
6:02
One, you didn't watch the trial and you're only watching TikTok, people like this, and formulating an opinion.
6:07
Or you're literally retarded.
6:09
You're literally stupid.
7:03
And they
12:11
She said, I can have,
12:12
there's a six-week rule.
12:14
That makes sense.
12:14
I wonder if the baby's going to be autistic since it came from a train.
12:20
No, because you, listen, Kenny, listen.
12:23
Is it too early for this? I'm so sorry.
12:25
You know, because autistic kids love trains.
16:18
Would you tell us a little bit about what went down this weekend so far? So we had a show
7:58
They don't really go into the weeds here in the report, but I guess him and his ex-wife bought a lot of rental properties, and at some point... you know the rental property you rent out property
8:07
yeah this the debt has to be like trump's debt where it was just asset value fluctuation where the prices the value of your houses go down you buy a house you know for 200 000 bucks and then the next month it's worth 150k and then you've lost effectively lost that so it's just an asset thing you knew that

7 MINS LATER

15:51
Well, at the end of the day,
15:52
everything is funny if you make it funny.
15:54
Right.
15:55
You know what's not funny? Real racism.
15:57
It's not funny.
15:58
You know what is funny? Funny jokes about race.
11:44
You and I have a little comedy show this weekend, and I'm told there's only like a dozen tickets left for this thing Sunday at Tejas Brewery.
11:50
Right.
11:50
Sunday, September 6th at Tejas Brewery in Houston, Texas.
11:54
Operation Comedy Therapy, y'all.
11:55
Wheelchairs for Warriors.
11:56
We're doing a benefit to raise money for combat veterans who were injured in the line of duty while serving this country.
12:02
A group of people we're very fond of who don't get a lot of help.
12:31
Do you want to tell us a little bit about them?
4:11
Right.
4:12
This is just a testament to how stupid liberal white women really are because she's like, hey, what are we mad at today? And they're like, we're protesting ice.
4:19
So she throws ice cubes in a bathtub.
4:21
That's right.
4:22
Like you were the dumbest person alive.
4:24
But Jesse, you don't like ice, right? Don't you hate ice? Well, I'm sick of ice, man.
4:28
They're trying to make me work weekends and holidays.

11 MINS LATER

15:48
Why don't
6:42
It's okay
6:42
...
6:42
I remember the, uh, the conversation was in the absence of law enforcement, in the absence of law, this is what you get.
6:49
This is the chaos and the mayhem.
6:50
There's no accountability.
6:51
There's no repercussion.
6:53
There's nothing you can do to, to, to remedy this.

8 MINS LATER

15:20
If you look up trans murder on the internet, you find a bunch of news stories about mass shootings perpetuated at the hands of a trans shooter.
7:13
It was all an orchestrated attack on ivermectin, and the aim was to get a shot in every arm.
7:18
Did you see what they did to Joe Rogan? When Joe Rogan said he took ivermectin— CNN took and gave him a green hue to make him physically look ill.
7:28
And he did a side by side of this is how I normally looked in the video.
7:32
And this is what they did to alter it.
7:34
And the juxtaposition of what they actually did was like tantamount to what was going on with the whole thing.
11:47
And the US had the worst outcomes of any country in the entire world, right?
11:51
Well, I didn't take, I'm not anti-vax.
11:54
Like I was vaccinated for polio and smallpox as a kid, as most kids in the 70s and 80s were.
4:09
How do you handle that?
4:10
I think it's asinine to tether the political affiliation of an artist or performer, especially in comedy, for us because it's something that's fictitious and made up.
4:21
And trying to indict us for a political alignment for a joke that we do on stage is like trying to say Leonardo DiCaprio was racist for his role in the movie Django that somebody else wrote.
4:32
And I've had – 12, 15 shows canceled across the country with uproar because they'll see a show that I'm doing.
4:39
That's a political couples therapy.
4:42
And then they'll go to my Instagram page and see a joke that I do.
4:45
That's, that's crapping on liberals and the left.

16 MINS LATER

20:48
What do you think?
15:39
Absolutely.
15:39
There's a professor at the University of Chicago who studies, among other things, uh, the I- Islamic world, Islamic Middle East, but also queer studies.
15:49
He writes, "If you read early colonial history, often when colonists arrived in the Muslim and Arab world, they were horrified by the amount of homosexuality that was rampant, including with children.
16:00
They were basically saying, 'Wow, these people are effing everything.'"

Evliya Çelebi, an Ottoman traveler in the 17th century, records stories from the Nile region about locals having sex with crocodiles.
18:35
He presents it as a known practice in some areas, sometimes framed as competitive or heroic, includes a fantastical antidote involving transformation after such an act, and notes that not engaging with crocodiles could affect local status or marriage prospects in certain communities.
18:50
Basically, he proposed to a woman and asked her to marry him, but she said no, 'cause he'd never had sex with a crocodile.
4:39
[laughs]
4:39
... 'cause here's, here's where the scale tips for me.
4:42
It's there were plans before to do this.
4:45
Like, if you wanna attribute something to the voices and mental illness, then it was, like, a hasty, haphazard thing that you did on a whim versus, you know, 'cause there- there's times in between the dir- drug-induced psychosis where she came to the reality and it's like, "Oh my God, I come t- back to normalcy and I look down and there's suicide notes and plans to murder my children.
5:06
Hey, in the brief period of, of sobriety, now's the time to attend to my sickness and my disease and get it taken care of, not lapse back into the, the psychosis and execute the plan." The fact that it was premeditated, it was calculated, and there were plans leading up to this, guilty, death penalty, 100%.
5:26
I don't wanna hear it.
5:26
Save your waterworks.

5 MINS LATER

10:44
Is this the new gold standard for parenting a triple-limit killer? What do you think?
6:15
Let's assume we know what happened, and we'll build the narrative later
6:18
And it's not even the assumption, it's just the fake outrage.
6:21
They don't care about the victim.
6:22
They don't care about the murder.
6:23
They don't care about the death.
6:24
BLM doesn't care about Black's lives.
6:26
What they care about is the fake outrage and the virtue signaling.

10 MINS LATER

16:37
Jesse, what has this world come to?
8:08
What is she high on fentanyl?
8:11
What drug is she doing to say these things? She says the key word.
8:14
They always say the quiet part out loud.
8:17
She transitions from they're going to be safe to feel safe.
8:21
It's all about a feeling.
8:22
They don't feel safe, but you're not getting any safety from a streetlight.
8:26
They don't realize that having guns and criminals will still get guns just because they're outlawed, as evidenced by Chicago with the harshest gun laws and the most gun crime.

11 MINS LATER

19:20
Same cultural weather system or just a pure coincidence? Do you think this is a coincidence? You're about to sneeze, aren't
3:11
Yeah.
3:12
I mean, I will say this, though.
3:14
It's crazy because I went to Walgreens for the first time because normally I do delivery for all my groceries and things that I need and from Amazon and HEB and whatnot.
3:22
But I went there to go buy, you know, whatever I was grabbing.
3:26
I forgot.
3:26
And I was like, oh, let me run down the aisle, see if I have any cravings or whatever.
3:30
And I was blown away how things really are expensive.

25 MINS LATER

28:49
Was she a
9:20
What's your thoughts on that?
9:22
Well, I did, and then I made parole, Kenny, so I'd appreciate it if I identify as a free citizen now, so I'd appreciate it if you'd refrain from that.
9:29
No, I give both sides.
9:32
I'm a staunch, I'm a Trump supporter.
9:35
I don't think he's infallible.
9:36
I don't stand by everything that he does.
9:38
50 year mortgage was stupid.

10 MINS LATER

19:29
You know,
4:48
I
4:48
hope they all go to prison.
4:50
What's worse than that is it wasn't even if you had some conspiracy theory.
4:55
If you questioned it, if you asked a question, you were deplatformed, you were silenced, you were punished, and your whole livelihood was taken away in a lot of respects.
5:06
It's awful.
5:07
If you questioned

11 MINS LATER

16:14
If it's on a street... there's always piles of garbage there.
16:17
Yeah, it's wild.
2:29
You might as well just drive.
2:31
Yeah, I liked it.
2:32
Well, our driving scenario is obviously different because we travel and do so many cities doing comedy.
2:37
So we drive more than most people and we drive further distances.
2:41
So I get the concept of it and it's like, hey, just sit there for 20 minutes on your way to work and shut the hell up and enjoy it.
2:47
I, you know, I went to a Tesla dealership, very, very skeptical.
2:51
But, you know, Buster here today is a good friend of mine.

11 MINS LATER

13:32
United States.
12:25
Does everybody get who Sophie Cunningham is at this point?
12:28
She's tremendous.
12:29
She's great.
12:29
She's beautiful.
12:31
She stands on her beliefs.
12:32
I like it.
12:33
She's a common sense and normal person in a weird world.

15 MINS LATER

27:37
She said, sorry, you were offended by my unsolicited wiener texts, they say.
2:00
Is it, though?
2:02
Jesse, it's sad.
2:03
I don't wish harm on people who try to kill you.
2:06
Well, there's that.
2:07
You pull a knife on somebody and then all we do is call this sad or tragic.
2:11
Is it tragic? Yes, because an idiot had his life taken.
2:15
We've got to stop making justification and excuses for this.
3:48
Are you aware... athens georgia austin texas portland oregon seattle washington denver colorado madison wisconsin there are places in america where everybody that lives there is an upper income highly educated white person who is completely libtarded has no grasp on reality their may their entire personality revolves around helping disenfranchised minorities But they don't actually know any black people.
speaker_5SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
7:17
This is abhorrent.
7:20
Kenny, 'cause I'm gonna tell you guys, I've been doing comedy a long time, and I always say my jokes are rated E for everyone, but for anyone who comes to a show, they know I do not make fun of the MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ community, Kenny, because there is nothing funny about a genocide of people that are under the umbrella of the MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ community.
7:40
And I...
7:41
So I've made it a safe space at every one of my shows.
7:44
I never joke about the MMIWG2SLG... [laughs] Which also doubles as a good Wi-Fi password.

7 MINS LATER

15:13
Don't you just wanna get up and move around a little? I do.
15:16
I love that Trump's back in office, 'cause this is like a microcosm of his whole, uh, tenure in office because old man says, "Stand up." Kid says, "Kiss my butt, I'm not a patriot." Old man smacks him upside the head, and he, [laughs] against his will, stands up.
15:31
Like, you, you queer.
23:27
does a comedian want to live in New York City? Is it still worth it for the career? Is that a good place to be? I don't know, man, to be honest with you.
23:35
It's a place for undiscovered talent if you're going to try to grind.
23:39
The weird thing about social media and the Internet is it's been like the great equalizer for talent because you don't have to go to L.A., you don't have to go to New York to be discovered.
23:47
You don't have to go to Austin and go to the Comedy Mothership to be discovered.
23:51
You can put your voice and your comedy in the living room or in literally the hands of every single person in the country just by going on the Internet now.
23:58
So it's less about the geography and more about the Internet exposure and sensationalization of that.
24:05
And
24:14
Is that right?
13:48
I can't care about the WNBA.
13:50
What's funny is the Sophia Cunningham, for those who don't know her, Sophie Cunningham is the white girl that plays in the WNBA.
13:56
She's making a big splash.
13:57
She and Caitlin Clark have kind of reinvigorated the WNBA of which I've never seen one game.
14:02
However, yeah, The funny thing is when Tiger Woods was like the first black golfer that really took over and dominated, even whites and blacks, liberals and conservatives, we loved it because it was great for the sport and great for the game.
14:14
And then now that two white people are doing it, when Venus and Serena came on, white people weren't upset about it.
14:20
We thought it was great.
15:08
Right.
14:15
you have you have um sick people who really can't control what they're doing and you've got bad people who are doing bad things and the bad people doing bad things are pretty rare um most of it are mental illness drug abuse um and and then like like i said the occasional person that has a really bad day and makes a bad decision.
14:38
And I can testify to that because I spent nine years in prison and I saw it.
14:42
And exactly what you said, there were good people in there who, you know, just made, who are intrinsically good people who did a stupid thing.
14:48
And then there are terrible people.
14:49
And then there's sick people.
14:50
I was on a unit.
14:51
I got a hardship transfer to be closer to my family when my grandmother was passing away.

16 MINS LATER

30:42
What happened with Cat Williams?
5:57
well then go
5:57
for it.
5:59
Helen Moreno.
6:00
What do we think of the new mayor so far? She's cute.
6:02
I'm enjoying her.
6:04
New Orleans city leaders just yanked.
6:07
Their request for a big state loan.

like Candace Olmos.
4:14
like that's not really true uh in christianity or hinduism or whatever point he's trying to make we don't actually throw gays off buildings we don't stone women to death for showing their ankles and their wrists their whorish wrists ah
4:28
the whorish wrist i've read the bible a few times, Kenny, too, because remember, I was in prison.
4:32
So I got to read it pretty thoroughly.
4:34
And in what he said, the antithesis of what that book says cover to cover, like the Bible says, you don't put any gods before me.
4:41
He says all gods are the same.
4:43
Says Bible says do not worship multiple gods.
4:45
He's saying that it's all the same.
7:12
James
6:36
A lot of conservatives and conservative media are calling this guy a hero, Chessie.
6:40
I think the American flag is kind of a very unfair, unrealistic...
6:46
You know, like a serial killer leaves a clue behind or something.
6:50
Or like the Joker in Gotham would leave the Joker card there.
6:54
Like they left the American flag like, I did this in the name of patriotism.
6:58
I don't know.
6:59
I don't believe in vandalism.
9:40
It couldn't be that bad, right? Where would
