I'm back with Michael Young, everybody. Welcome to Walkins. Welcome. We have been talking about this

episode for a while. Michael and I are constantly texting one another nonstop about the culture

and the wars, the culture wars. And he's somebody that I often turn to for just insight or his thoughts on something or how something

works because you are somebody who has deeply studied all of the literature and the,

a lot of the stuff behind the critical race theory and the very confusing,

commie gobbledygook that seems to have infected kind of every aspect of our life as we know it. And before we get into that, we're going to

talk about beautiful trouble, which is this kind of hand toolbox for the revolution that we,

he and I have been talking about that is very available to anyone to go read.

But before that, we never talked about this the last time you were on.

Is that where vocal distance came from?

So you're known as vocal distance on X, formerly Twitter.

Everybody should follow him there.

He's one of my favorites.

And where did that name come from?

We never really discussed that.

Oh, the name Wocal Distance is a poor mantle of the words woke and social distance.

Oh.

Yeah, I was tying two things together there and uh my original handle i don't think

i was the first one to do this but i got red a thread of mine before i was vocal distance

was red and at the time i was calling myself woko harambe now i, I wasn't the first guy, I don't think, to use that name because there was another Woko Harambe that was quite well known. Somebody else. Okay. Yeah. So I wasn't the first Woko Harambe, I don't think. There was a guy who had an avatar of a mug like this, and he called himself, and I'm not him.

But so I called myself Woko Harambe, and it was a, my tagline was I can't shut up because silence is complicity.

And I did a thread on Beautiful Trouble, and it got rid on Ben Shapiro's show.
