Hey, folks, Ben Shapiro here. Don't miss our latest episode of Daily Wire backstage.

Join me, Jeremy Boring and Reclave and Michael Moles, Candace Haines, and Matt Walsh,

as we discuss everything from marriage to Taylor Swift.

Yes, there were some Swifties on last night's show. Take a listen. Welcome to the Daily Wire backstage.

I'm Jeremy Boring, joined by Ben Shapiro, Michael Knowles, Matt Walsh, Andrew Claven, and Candice Owens.

I'm your host. You may not remember me. I've been gone.

Many, many a moon. It's actually been one year, I think, since the last time that I got to do it backstage in my absence. They tried it a few times with the god prince, Michael Knowles. You can't keep that. He's your son. It's, I regret saying it. It didn't go well, so they just canceled the whole damn thing until I got to come back. We're going to do things a little bit different, and by a little bit different, I mean, kind of the way we used to do them.

I think when the show first got started, it was a really special part of what we did at the Daily Wire. Part of what made the Daily Wire unique was that we could have these conversations once a month. And they would cover whatever was on our minds. Sometimes it was political. Sometimes it was philosophical. Sometimes we agreed. sometimes we disagreed.

And as the show grew, as the company grew,

the show became more, a little bit more,

I was a DJ and we were doing news, but you guys talk about the news every day. I'm not saying

we won't talk about the news, only that I want the occasion of us all coming together to maybe

be something a little bit more befitting that occasion and have a little bit more of a long form feel to it.

And so hopefully this will be a little bit more like the backstages of your when Andrew Claibon

was, well, already very, very old.

It's just me and Ben yelling at each other, as I remember.

I remember those days. What's changed? It was great, yeah. Actually, the very first ones, you guys agreed all the time, and then came the election of 2016. And that's probably why we turned it into a new show. Which we're redoing now, by the way. The election of 2016. We're just back in the election of 2016. It's like being in hell. It just keeps coming back again. It's the Hotel California of Election Cycles. We are going to take questions from our Daily Wire Plus members. You can submit your questions and have them answered live on the air toward the end of the show. Also, something we're doing a little bit different. Instead of doing members block, we're going to keep the show live for everyone. But we're going to hear exclusively from our Daily Wire Plus members. And, you know, a lot's happened since I was gone. Obviously, my little

daughter started using the potty. Drew went to a once-a-week show. Michael launched a cigar brand.

It smells delicious. Matt will just continue to devolve into paranoid insanity

about extraterrestrials occupying the Earth. Candace had a kid. Lots of things have changed.

Ben never changes. He's just been. I mean, I am the number one rapper in America.

I was going out of my way not to say. I know you were. I was going to let that just live. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dr. Dradle sitting right next to me. It's over. The magic is over, guys. I am retired for my chosen. Today, today, Billboard put out that it was the number one rap, the number one, the number one selling rap song. And R&B. And R&B. Two Billboard number one. Two Billboard number one. Because that is my chosen. And number 16. And number 16 on the Hot 100.
