Summary

The FBI has now revised the crime statistics to reflect reality. I explain how Republicans have missed an entire decade of messaging and policy opportunities to win back suburban voters on the crime issue. Instead, they pushed jailbreak and bailed out Democrats from their own radical policies foisted upon them by their quixotically unreasonable base. Next, we’re joined by Seth Dillon, CEO of the Babylon Bee. He explains how the Bee is aiming not only to evoke laughter but also to powerfully use the weapon of satire to deconstruct the absurd prevailing narratives in politics and culture. We also discuss the concerns about the growing “woke Right,” which is becoming as mindless as the woke Left. He promises to continue illustrating that absurdity as well with some satirical pieces. Finally, we discuss his activism as a Floridian in fighting Amendment 4, which will kill thousands of babies. He might run a satire company, but he is actually being more effective than most conservatives who claim to be serious thought leaders. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:26.1	because there are so few options to actually focus on what we can influence, what we can do, what we can influence what we can do what we must do and actually we're going to have a fun
0:36.3	show today coming up is Seth Dylan the CEO of Babylon B
0:42.0	you know Babylon B. You know, Babylon B does probably some of the best work on the
0:47.6	right. It's satire, but it's more real than people on the right who claim to be serious and real thinkers
0:54.8	and they're not thinkers at all and they're pathetic and it's not even funny or satire.
1:00.5	With the Babylon B it's funny but it's also, you know, their headlines, their articles, they write,
1:07.0	cut to the core of what some of our principles, our policy vision should be and certainly our messaging.
1:14.4	So they do a great job and we're going to do a little bit of a state of play of American satire.
1:19.9	Also talk about some serious stuff. Seth lives in Florida very involved in funding the
1:25.1	fight against Amendment 4. We'll also get into the woke right. He has
1:31.0	criticized the woke right. He's very very serious thinker and you could obviously
1:35.4	see that through the vision of Babylon B so they're doing a better job than anyone
1:40.2	but we try to be the non-Babylon B version of that seriousness.
1:45.6	And before we bring on Seth, I just want to go through a couple of news stories, particularly tied around crime to show that if we actually did
1:56.7	have a serious forward-looking movement and political party because the left is so nuts and so radical and so destructive and so
