| 0:10.6 | with the thought you've always got a home the virus is scared of will come and it'll go the government knows this don't get treated like a home. Welcome everybody to another episode of Liberty Lockdown. We got another special guest with me today. |
| 0:30.0 | The legend himself Josh Denny, the most cancelled comedian in America |
| 0:35.1 | You know I don't know if that's true but I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep branding myself that way because it you know |
| 0:40.7 | Who's more canceled than me? |
| 0:42.8 | Right? People have argued, they go, |
| 0:45.7 | well, you haven't been deplatformed yet. |
| 0:48.2 | So technically, like, Owen Benjamin |
| 0:50.4 | is more canceled than you or, you know, there's more media coverage for Chappelle, so he's more canceled. |
| 0:57.3 | He's like, no, I think the frequency, I think when you talk about how many times people try to cancel you and how many times it catches fire I think that one I win by far I think so too man it's like I have an epic one every couple of years now. I had one in 2014 over a rape joke. I had on Twitter, I had one. That really didn't catch fire because I wasn't famous in any way at the time. And then the 2018 one and then now this recent one about abortion so I think when it comes to frequency I'm the winner. |

| 1:52.0 | I believe it. I believe in it. You know what I mean? Like I it's I'm not |
| 1:56.0 | faking it. You know what I mean? That's why I laughed when people go oh his now that |
| 2:00.3 | he's this free speech guy he's grifting and it's like no no the better grift would have been to keep my fucking mouth shut and stay on the gravy train on the other side right so exactly no it's just you know the thing about principles is when you have them they're hard to shake and when you think something is right it's hard to you know go against it. So yeah, I think comedians should be able to joke about whatever they want to joke about or talk about whatever they want to talk about and I think I think what it comes to the one kind of speech where nothing should be off limits it should definitely be |
| 2:33.4 | stand-up comedy if it's anything. And I refuse to back down on that and I'll never |
| 2:38.8 | apologize for jokes. I've never apologized for anything I said that was intended to |
| 2:42.4 | entertain people and I never will. |
| 2:45.2 | I love it. I love it man. I really think that like your your role in society has become significant. I mean it's always been been important.
