(00:10):
Independent thoughts, independent life. Thisis Chad Benson college campus chaos and craziness.
Finding out more of what happened atUCLA. So yesterday there was pictures,
there was videos. You know,I heard different things about what happened,
but wow, was it chaos andlunacy dystopian. I haven't got your

(00:35):
gaywen gifsent the police captain for theUniversity of California lost them. And you're
right, a player of this tobe about mobocent This is an unlawful assembly.
You're hearing this coming out of thehelicopter. And you do not do
so, you may be arrested orsubject to other prospection who you could be
arrested. So what happened the nightbefore? Jewish students and had enough and

(01:00):
actually probably not Jewish students, otherpeople who happened to be Jewish had had
enough and they went down to UCLAand they got into fights. You don't
do vigilante justice, I will tellyou. After growing up in Los Angeles,
you'd be surprised how many x MASADagents lived there. But it was

(01:22):
chaos. And this is what happenswhen you allow children to run wild on
campus and do whatever the hell theywant. But it's not just children.
You have a lot and I saychildren, but they're eighteen, nineteen,
twenty twenty one. They're still kids. They're so formulating what life is like.
They're still young. They may beadults, but they're not adults.

(01:42):
And you know that. But itwas lunacy and when you finally give in
to the point where many of thesecollege campuses have given in to these kids.
And it started long ago. Itstarted with microaggressions guarded with you know,
being able to complain about everything andhaving to take everything they say one

(02:06):
percent serious. You arrived at thissituation. But it's not just about who's
on campus that goes to school.There many of this is very many of
what's going on right now. Manyof these things that you're seeing very coordinated.
And it happens because people from theoutside are really into this. The

(02:30):
campus at the University of Pennsylvania isopen to the public for more than a
week. The encampment has grown tense, filled with people. But who are
they? Do you guys are students? Who are they students? Or I
don't think do you work for theschool? Okay, thank you? The
suspicion runs both ways. I don'tknow, I don't know, are you

(02:51):
I'm I'm with CNN. I mean, we're just asking people persons either I
don't trust CNNA either, Well whydid you ask if I was with and
I said with CNN And you're like, well, I don't trust you.
Okay, outside agitators professionals that arethere to get these kids to provoke,

(03:13):
to do something so they can looklike they're the victims in this. This
is all coordinated. It's a biggerpush for people who want to see the
collapsing of society. And so whatdo you do. You go to the
young, because if you've studied history, go look at the insanity of China

(03:35):
with Mao. He went to theyoung. Get the young on your side,
get them energized, especially the women, and watch what happens. But
it's not just spontaneous. There's acoordinated thing that's happening. Here we spot
a person named Charlotte waving the flagof a terrorist organization, the Popular Front
for the Liberation of Palestine. Whatwas that flag that you were carrying?

(03:58):
She's not working, I understand,but what was what was that flag you
were counting? Do you know thatthat flag that you were carrying is a
terrorist organization. Are you aware ofthat? You were waving a Charlotte,
Charlotte. You were waving it veryproudly, Charlotte. They don't want to
speak with us and flee before wecan ask any more questions. Why is
that? Because they know what avast majority of America thinks. They think

(04:24):
that these kids are spoiled, Theythink that this entire thing is a nightmare.
They get that they want. Theirgoal is to get these kids to
do things that they won't do,and they don't want to talk about it
because they can't defend so many oftheir arguments, so they just I don't

(04:45):
want to talk. I won't talkto you. Look if I believe I'm
in the right and you're there,And again, we're not talking about court
any of that stuff where your lawyer'slike, shut up. This is what
the trial's all about in this situation, This is about the court of public
opinion. You don't want to havea conversation because you're waiving a flag for

(05:09):
a group of people that would havea vast majority of these people that are
protesting for them killed if given theopportunity. You're not a student, right,
Okay, And he's not a student. No, okay, so how
come you're here if you're not students? We're supporting the okay, but this
is supposed to be for students,right or this is just I'm just curious,
That's what I thought. But itseems like a yeah, yeah,

(05:31):
you know, a suiting here atthis at this school could be it could
be not When first he said no, so I don't know. I'm just
that's closer for the cops when theycome, I can answer that for them.
Okay, outside agitators, it's happening. And and and then when you
saw it Ucla, other people thatdon't go to school there got into fights
and skirmishes. Why is that?Because the police aren't showing up, nobody's

(05:55):
doing anything. And let's not forgetUcla was it was an ugly situation.
They weren't lett Jewish kids go toclass. They were scaring them, they
were chasing. These are things thatyou know, you would sit there and
think on our campuses here where they'reworried about whether or not somebody's misgendered,
where they're worried about they hurt somethingthat somebody maybe said that was a comedy

(06:21):
bit, and they didn't like it, and so they freak out about it,
or or you know, somebody's comingto speak on college campuses for the
young Republicans and that person says,if you've got a penis, you're a
man, and we know that somebodywith a penis could be a female if
they want to be, and theyfreak out about it. Yet at the
same time they will attack the Jewishstudents, they will threaten the Jewish students,

(06:43):
and we're supposed to be like,oh, that's fine, no hypocrisy,
and it's lunacy. It is.But it started somewhere, started with
they didn't raise themselves and they didn'tteach themselves. Parents have allowed, in
many cases at least some of thesekids that get away with stuff. You're
always past, you're always this,you have a right to say these things.
And then it just got blown upfrom there through our youth being indoctrinated

(07:11):
many times over and over that youare bad if you're white, that you're
oppressed if you're black, that you'rethis, that you're that, And this
is how we have a situation.We're on college campuses right now. You're
fighting for a group of people thatand I'm talking about the Palestinian people.

(07:38):
Understandable, we should be caring aboutwhat's going on, the famine, the
children, all of that stuff.But the people you're holding up and celebrating
the flags and the way you're goingabout doing it is sick. Yelling at
kids saying, hey, you guysneed to go back to Auschwitz. You

(07:59):
belong back in the ovens. I'msorry. What yeah, three two,
three, five, three, eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad
Benson show is your Twitter tweet athis text program A lot more of this
insanity. By the way, Well, all this is going on, let's
not forget that. Israel and Hamas, which this is the actual thing that's

(08:20):
going on, they have floated severalpiece deals out there which Hamas is not
very happy with. They don't wantpeace. Understand that. That's how small
minded some of these people. Theydon't understand they're being played useful idiots.
They don't want peace. They don'tIsrael's like we'll take thirty three. Can
we get thirty three and we'll giveyou five thousand or whatever ridiculous thing.

(08:46):
I mean. I think it waslike they want several hundred, maybe one
thousand prisoners and we want our hostagesthirty three of them? Can we get
thirty three of them? Is thatpossible for a seasfire? Is it possible?
And Moss like, hey, wedon't really like this. Yeah,
we don't really. No, No, we're really not into it. No.
No, because they don't want peace. There's no profit in peace.

Com slash Chad Chad Benson Show.You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.
I actually have questions for all thecollege students all across the United States,
all of you guys. I actuallyhave a real question for you guys.

(10:41):
So you guys are able to collectivelyget together and protest something that's going on
overseas. And again I'm not puttingdown what going on overseas is not something
that we should not pay attention toor care about. But you guys won't
protest to the fact that you guyscan buy houses, you guys can't get

(11:01):
jobs after from college. Yeah,yeah, so that that's absolutely true.
Remember, these protests are silly.We understand that they are about oppressor and
oppressed and it's not real. They'reliving in a fantasy land. They don't.

(11:24):
I mean, I've been saying it. Where's mom and dad? Mom
and dad be pissed about this.I didn't send you to college to get
kicked out of college for something thatis happening far far away that you have
nothing to do with and that youdon't know anything about. No, this
is about extending their childhood and feelinglike they're fighting against the man. You
guys are about to pay like fortypercent in capital gains tax if you guys

(11:46):
even inherit your parents' house, andlike, literally, you guys have no
money. Inflations can high You guyscan't even forward gas. Literally your future
is and you guys aren't even protestingabout it. You guys protes this thing
about some proceeds. I don't understandthat. No, No, they don't
understand it or get it either.How many times have we listened to what

(12:09):
river let's see you like the Mississippiand the Atlantic? Oh, my goodness,
me speaking of inflation. I don'tknow if you're aware of this.
Yesterday, I guess was the dayoff for the trial, so Trump got
to get out there amongst the folk. We had the greatest economy in history.
This is everybody said. This isn'tme, this is everybody. We
had the greatest We had no inflation. Today you're inflation so high it doesn't

(12:33):
matter if you make money, itdoesn't matter. It eats you alive.
Oh, we don't want it toeat. So what did she be talking
about every single day? One?Continue Trump? We're going to rebuild our
cities. We're going to bring themback like they used to be, and
we're going to make them safe placesagain. We're going to give our police
their power back, and we're goingto give them immunity from prosecution so they're

(12:54):
not prosecuted for doing their job.We'll take over the horribly run capital of
our country, Washington, DC,and clean up, renovate, and rebuild
our capital city so that it's nolonger a nightmare of murder and crime.
Ooh, I like that. Lookat that, you know crime. The
thought that allowing people to do anythingthey want to do with zero repercussions is

(13:20):
you know you hear the left Idid. They're doing it because of this.
So they're doing it because of that. Now they're doing because there's no
zero repercussions case in point. Iwent to Target to get some alcohol because
it's Friday. But I don't havethe money to pay for alcohol. So
guess what I did. I wasjust gonna take it. I mean,
it's free, right, they putthe prices on there, but I think
that's just for like, if youwant to pay, it's not mandatory.

(13:41):
I mean, if I do seesomething that I wanted to buy, like
I could have, but I didn'twant to. I just wanted to alcohol
because I had other plans for theday. But I wasn't the only person
stealing in there. And I couldtell you I wasn't the only person stealing
in there because when I walked upin that beach, I saw two stuffing
hips down their pants, trying tobe in conspicuous. A thief knows a
thief, I see you. Athief knows a thief. I see you.

(14:05):
But I don't do nothing about them, Like, oh, okay,
my people will be here today,knowing full well that if you get caught,
nothing's going to happen here. That'sif they even try to catch you.
They don't they understand what's going onnowadays depends on the city. Some
cities, crime is crime other cities. Eh, like you said, they
put the price on there. It'smore a suggestion than anything else. Some

(14:28):
more with Trump. When I returnto the White House, we will stop
the plunder, rape, slaughter,and destruction of the American suburb cities and
towns. We're gonna stop it.Call. We will immediately end all sanctuary
and deadly sanctuary cities. I willshift massive portions of federal law enforcement to

(14:50):
immigration enforcement. And we will imposea naval blockade on the cartels, because
when we clean up the land,they come in by sea, and they
have plenty of money to do it. We will put the cartels out of
business. And on day one,we will begin the largest domestic deportation operation

(15:11):
in American history. Ooh, that'sleft freaking out. But no, it's
gonna have camps and you're gonna bein there, and then they're gonna come
and they're gonna take you away,and they're gonna ship you off to who
knows where. Oh my goodness me. We all know that none of that
stuff's gonna happen the way that hethinks, but it sounds good. We

(15:31):
had the safest border in the historyof our country, and now we have
the worst border in the history ofthe world. There's never been a border
like it. Crooked Joe Biden inhis horrible way. It's just he's made
our country a dumping ground. Yourstate is being torn up to pieces with
migrant crime. It's a new term, migrant crime. They're hiding in the
bushes, breaking into rural and suburbanhomes after dark, looting them for jewelry,

(15:56):
purses, electronics, watches, cash, and a legal alien was charged
with breaking into a Michigan home andsexually assaulting two young girls while threatening to
kill them if they screamed or triedto escape. He is you know,
when you get out there and youtalk about the things, immigration still gallop
pole last three months, Immigration isstill the number one thing out there.

(16:21):
Abortion. Obviously, we're going totalk about a little bit later in the
show. What's going on in Florida, what's going on in Arizona. Those
are big deals. Arizona yesterday decidedto get rid of that eighteen sixty four
law that was in place, andnow there's a fifteen week which is I
think where most people across the countryare comfortable with. Florida went into the

(16:41):
six week band starting I think itwas yesterday. So you've got a lot
of stuff happening there. But you'vegot immigration, which is the border,
remember abe, abortion, border,economy, three biggest things. And he
was right about the inflation world Eatingyou Alive three, five, three,
eight, twenty four, twenty threeat Chadventon Show is your Twitter tweet at

(17:03):
us text the program. Still havea lot of stuff to get to.
More on what's happening on college campusis the chaos, the craziness. And
that girl, the young woman whowas imploring as a spokesperson to give people
at Columbia food, well we foundout more about her, and boy,

(17:27):
she's everything that you would ask for. Its central casting of insanity. We'll
talk about that as well. ChadVenta Chow, The Chad Benson Show,

(18:00):
Dean Thoughts, Independent Life, Thisis Chad Benson. There's battles on campuses,
the fight for a portion in Floridaand Arizona and other places. But
speaking of Florida, well it's Florida. Cell phone video posted on x on
the Only in Dade page shows anapparent party at the Lucky Strike Lanes in

(18:22):
Miami Tuesday erupting in a brawl trinksher thrown, then bowling balls thrown in
the air down the alley, inone seeming to hit a woman in the
head, knocking her down. Copssay she was knocked out and she and
her alleged attacker had left when officersgot there. Police say aggravated battery and
other charges are possible. A oh, my goodness, only in Florida.

(18:48):
You gotta laugh, right, wehave people on campus. It's good.
We're not getting enough food to eat. We are suffering the same as the
people in Rafa and in Gaza,but we're here to fight for them with
our five hundred thousand dollars educations.And then you got people in Florida like,
I'm gonna throw this bowling ball atthis lady because she's freaking crazy.

(19:10):
Florida. First Amendment, that's abig question. What's going on on campuses?
Where does the First Amendment end?You know, we know you can't
say anything. We have tons offreedoms in this country, we do,
but there is a line that drawn. You know, he can't yell fire

(19:32):
in a crowded theater, but youcan yell apparently if you're the only one
in there. There are certain thingsyou can't do. But then the big
debate about the First Amend what goeson on campus is it's kind of a
big deal. I am deeply concernedabout the escalating repression a First Amendment protected
speech and assembly on college campuses acrossour country. To all the elected university

(19:53):
boards and appointed presidents, it needsto be very clear your student's constitutional rights
doesn't end when they enter your campusground and the ACLU statement mister speaker says,
quote, as you fashion responses tothe activism of your students, in
faculty and staff, it is essentialthat you not sacrifice principles of academic freedom

(20:14):
and free speech that are at acore to the educational mission of your respected
institutions. No, you shouldn't,and it goes both ways. By the
way, if you believe a manis a man and a woman is a
woman, you shouldn't be in troublefor that. I think we can all
agree you shouldn't be if you believemarriage is between a man and a woman,

(20:37):
you shouldn't be drummed out of schoolfor that. I think we can
all agree. Free speech is amazing. Hate speech is the only thing that's
protected because if you love what theother persons saying you don't want that protected
because you don't need to, becauseI'm not worried about it. But if

(20:57):
you disagree, see the problem Aswe've gotten to this point now where disagreeing
on something or having a different pointof view is now considered hate speech.
I think they have every right toprotest to say certain things. Now,
when you start taking over buildings andstuff like that, you know, it's

(21:18):
different if you're camping in the quadand whatever. But when you start blocking
people from going to two classes cUCLA, when you stop people from accessing
buildings, you know, then you'reyou're you're crossing line of protesting to moving
on to something else. But thespeech side of it is very real.
Now, if you're screaming you guysall need to go to the ovens,

(21:41):
well that's something you got to answerfor. And I bring that up because
of Irwin Chiminsky, who is aprofessor's the dean at Berkeley Law School.
Every year it's big Dinner. TheAtlantic reported on this. No one has
a right to protest to my home. The difference between a private yard and
a public warm. So there's aguy who is Jewish, he's the dean

(22:07):
of Berkeley since two thousand and eight. Every year he has a big dinner
at the house. Is a customof inviting each class of first year students
over for a meal. There hashelped create and reinforce warm community and to
accommodate all students, and he says, outside of the COVID years, they've

(22:29):
done it. So last year,at the request of the presidents of the
third year classes, we organized makeupdinners on three successive nights and invited each
of the four hundred graduating students toattend a graduation dinner at the home of
the University of California Berkeley Law School'sdean on Tuesday devolved into an ugly incident.

(22:51):
A Palestinian American Berkeley law student whowas invited to the dinner picked up
a microphone and stood before the gatheringuninvited. Listen to what happened. Now
we have attorneys. Okay, youdon't have to get across me. You're
guest at our house. Wow.So a person shows up and starts protesting,

(23:21):
and you know, here's somebody whoinvited you to dinner. Break bread.
Let's let's have conversations. If youwant to have conversations, you got
the whole, you know, pl O outfit on the whole, nine
yards straight out of Central casting,right there on the steps of their house,
top of everything else. Tried todo it inside. It was crazy.

(23:42):
Somebody who's invited you into the hometo have a by the way,
not to have conversations about this,to come and enjoy. You've been through
law school, You've worked hard.Let's just celebrate this stuff. Let me
also start with the fact that thespeaker in that clip is the president of
a group called Law Students for Justicein Palestine, and that group put this

(24:04):
poster out on social media days beforethe event at your home. The poster
was also placed on bulletin boards inthe law school building. It depicts a
caricature of you holding a bloody knifeand fork. The one we're showing right
now doesn't have the blood on it, and maybe they redid it with the
words in large letters, no dinnerwith zionis chem while Gaza stars now,

(24:26):
you wrote in a statement after thatappeared on social media, I never thought
I would see such blatant anti semitismwith an image that invokes the horrible anti
Semitic trope of blood libel and thatattacks me for no apparent reason other than
I am Jewish. Wow, here'sthe beauty of this guy. Though stand
up Cat does it seem to betoo involved in the politics of Israel and

(24:52):
whatnot, and he talks about Idon't talk about this stuff, right,
But the kids do have the rightto put these things up. Beauty of
the First Amendment. I said nothingin support of it and that Yahoo is
doing in Israel, And they actuallysaid nothing in any public form about what's
going on with regard to Gaza.The students weren't attacking me for anything that
I had said, and the onlything that they were saying is that the

(25:15):
law schools should do that. Thelaw school has no investments. The University
of California makes all the investments forall the schools. So it's hard for
me to see any reason why theywere coming after me other than that I
was Jewish. I found the imageof me with the bloody knife were deeply
offensive. It does raise the antiSemitic trope of blood libel, but I

(25:40):
also took the position that they hadthe right to put it out in bulletin
boards around the school. Many studentsand staff Jewish and non Jewish said that
it made them feel unsafe, butI said, in the First Amendment,
they have the right to put thosethings on bulletin boards. Yeah. Hey,
I've not said anything about it.He's actually been very critical at times
at Yahoo, but kind of stayedaway from it. But did say you

(26:03):
had the right to go and dothat. It's the beauty of the First
Amendment. Where does the First Amendmentend? Though? But when something is
happening at my house, that's quitedifferent. We invited the graduating students over
at the request to the class presidents, to celebrate their graduation. When a
student took out of her backpack amicrophone and an amplifier and began talking about

(26:26):
what's going on in the Middle East, it's not okay. In my home.
No one was speaking that night.It wasn't in any way an occasion
for anything but socializing and celebration.And you'll notice this about Marxists in particular,
they've got zero sense of humor,no sense of humors. A couple
of great books out there about Lenin, and they all talk about Lenin,

(26:48):
and most none of them had anysense of humors. They didn't laugh.
Everything was serious. If you can'tlaugh. Oh. I'm telling you guys,
that's one of the first downfalls ofsociety when it takes itself too serious.
When I asked about you know,was some of this you know his
wife grabbed the microphone from the lady. Was some of this based also on
the fact that they put that posterup. I'm sure for both of us.

(27:14):
Part of the reaction is what precededit in the last week and was
preceded in the last six months.But I have to tell you that when
the student got up and with themicrophone amplifier and began talking about going on
in the Middle East, my reactionwas, this is a party, this
is my house, Please stop,please leave. Yeah. Now, these

(27:36):
people are in it to win it, and we better get serious about what
they're trying to do. This Marxism, this neo Marxims, this insanity that's
going on. We need to pushback. And if you love all of
the stuff that's going on elsewhere,let us help you get there and see

(27:57):
how you like it over there.I see Iran is offering free scholarships,
and we'll talk about that next hour. To any of the people who get

game with Cobby le may I thinkhe's an Italian TikToker and gamer. Oh

(31:45):
you serious? Oh yeah, yeahyeah. There's so many things that you
can do, including you can makememories in the inside out to house thingy
that they have and Joy will beyour host there. So it's not all
bad. Kids are protesting, throwinga fit. Oh my god, world's

(32:07):
coming to an end. But hey, you want to stay at the uphouse.
You want to stay at night inthe Ferrari Museum. Sounds like fun.
Do you remember this from yesterday?And I bring it up because it's
hilarious. We're saying that they're obligatedto provide food to students who pay for
a meal plan here. But youmentioned that there is a requested that food

(32:29):
and water be brought in unless I'mto allow it to be brought in.
I mean, well, I guessit's ultimately a question of what kind of
community and obligation Columbia feels it hasto its students. Do you want students
to die of dehydration and starvation orget severely ill, even if they disagree
with you. If the answer isno, then you should allow basic I
mean it's crazy to say because we'reon an ivy Lea campus, but this

(32:51):
is like basic humanitarian aid we're askingfor, Like could people please to have
a glass of water? Yes,they can, and they can have a
glass of water. They can doall that stuff. You're just pissed off.
You're trying to be a revolutionary andyou're pissed because nobody will bring you
your your you know, your snacksthat you want. Where's to make glutant
free snacks that I need? Andwe played this guy yesterday and it's all

(33:15):
gonna circle around. But I likeplaying this guy because I thought this guy
hit it right on the head.The majority of these college students are here
on a government loan. They arestudying something unbelievably stupid. They are basically
being built for money. They haveno idea it's the next cool thing to
do. The average person, Ithink at these protests is the kid that
isn't cool or good looking enough tobe invited to a house party. So

(33:37):
because they're not invited to a houseparty, they make their own, which
is out here, Which is whywhat happens when they summon these people with
a flyer, ten thousand of themshow up. These are ten thousand people
with nowhere else to be. Well, guess what we found out? Who
the lady is. That's the spokespersonwho wants the snacks. Johanna King Slatsky

(33:58):
didn't make it up. By theway, if you go search it now,
they're trying to wipe everything off.You can't find her on Columbia Universities.
You can't find her any of theseplays. You can't find her.
Why because she is a paid instructorof PhD candidate at Columbia studying. Are
you ready for this? People?I want you guys to soak this in
theories of the imagination in poetry asinterpreted through a Marxist lens. Her dissertation

(34:30):
is on Fantasies of limitless energy inthe Transatlantic Romantic Imagination from seventeen sixty to
eighteen sixty. My goal is towrite a prehistory metabolic rift, Marx's term
for the disruption of energy circuits causedby industrialization under capitalism. I am particularly

(34:52):
interested in theories of the imagination andpoetry as interpreted through a Marxist lens,
in order to update and propose analternative historic ideological critiques of the Romantic imagination.
Prior to joining Columbia, I workedas a political strategist for leftists and
progressive causes, and remain active inhigher education, labor movement phenomenal. There's

(35:13):
your leaders right there, people,there are your leaders. Three two,
three, five, three, eight, twenty four to twenty three. At
Chad Benson's shows your Twitter, thatguy hit it out of the park.
They're studying something stupid. What areyou thinking? What's your degree cost?
Eight hundred thousand dollars? After everything'ssaid down with food snacks, Let's just
say the government pays for even halfof that. You now have a degree

(35:36):
that is going to get you.Essentially, you're a lifetime educator, an
education person. You don't actually doanything with it outside of being an activist,
no contribution to society whatsoever. Thisis what I keep telling you.
You want an engineer degree, it'sfree. You want to study romantic poetry
and imagination through a Marxist lens,it's a five million dollar degree. Start

(36:00):
making it so the degrees we needare chief and the degrees that these people
want to study that are insane areso expensive that it's all put and they're
like, I don't want to dothis. Three two, three, five,

(37:04):
that right there, not the MiddleEast, not some war torn African nation,
that is UCLA. It is goingdown, kids, It is going
down. Something is about to takeplace. As officers finally come face to
face with these protesters in the encampmentwho have been preparing to guard the entrance

(37:27):
to the encampment, YEP, they'dhad enough. Finally, the cops showed
up, baton's out shields out ryatearfull riotear is in place here as they
make their way up the staircase.Guy up in helicopter five thousand, we're
talking about three hundred CHP officers whoare getting ready to force their way into

(37:50):
this encampment. And they did andyou heard it. Bagoom bagoom bagoom rubber
bullets flying. That sucks and leavea mark they asked you to leave.
It's about being able to protest.It is. It is you cross the
line when you took over areas thatthey told you not to. You cross

(38:13):
the line when you threaten Jewish students. That's where you cross the line.
When you made it so people couldn'tdo anything. You cross the line.
And it doesn't matter where it is, because it's across the country. Is
happening, same shame. This isnot about Columbia or CCNY or Berkeley or

(38:37):
UCLA or any other place where thestudents have risen up. This is the
conscience of a nation speaking through yourkids, through young people, is it?
And be honest with you, isit really the conscious of a nation?

(38:57):
Does the average person really think Palestine? Yeah? No, they can't
even tell you where it's at.Most of these kids don't know where it's
at. They don't understand what's goingon. Most of them have no idea
what's happening. They're there because it'sthe hip, cool thing to be,
and they're also right. They're drawnagainst the oppressor versus the oppressed situation.

(39:22):
They're excited about the battle that theyget to fight against the man. And
they've got outside agitators, which isa big deal. This is not organic.
This is not just some people sittingaround with their drums and the next
thing you know, goes from twelvepeople to twenty people, from twenty to
sixty and people just get it.Is not that this is much more organized.

(39:49):
Mayor Adams, New York former cop, talking about a lot of the
people that were arrested, who werethey? Were they all students? You
have talked more about the outside agitatorat Columbia at least at this point.
I understand there were three hundred peoplearrested last night. Do you have any
ability at this point to tell ushow many of those were outside agitators.
I've always suspected that something was problematicwhen I first saw this, and it

(40:13):
wasn't until an intelligence division gave mea briefing and confirmed my concerns. We
had clear evidence of training that wasconducted by an outside agitator that was not
a student, did not believe belongon the campus, that's right, and
that outside agitator a professional protester whohad been arrested, Oh god, you

(40:36):
know, seventy eighty plus times,telling them what to do, how to
protest, how to get it sothere would be a reaction, so you
could look like the victim in this, Oh, professional protesters. I received
a letter from the school, andin the letter from the school that asked
us to come in, they saidit was a clear and present danger and

(40:59):
that they had outside individuals who wereon the grounds participating in this activity.
Are we going to ever get abreakdown from the three hundred and how many
were students and how many weren't.We are going to give the complete list
of those who were arrested and turnit over to the school, and the
school will make the determination. We'renot going to release students' name, but

(41:20):
the school can make the determination ofthe difference between students and non students,
students and non students. All thereare plenty of students, most of them,
but it doesn't mean they don't havehelp. I mean, we've talked
about it. Several professors and peoplethat have gone there said, man,
I've been to Berkeley, have beento UCLA, have been to Colombian and
NYU, and I look around andI'm like, there is a lot of

(41:43):
the same stuff at every one ofthese places. All these tents look the
same. I saw similar indicators fromthe Black Lives Matters March when it was
brought to my attention that there werethose who came to the city to disrupt
our city. And I know thatthey're those who are attempting to say,
well, the majority of people mayhave been students, you don't have to
be the majority to influence and coop and operation. That is what it's

(42:08):
about. And so if we wantto play the road police, you could
do so. I want to playthe New York City Police. Well,
we're going to protect our city fromthose who are attempting to do what is
happening globally. And that's a bigdeal because some of the stuff that they're
hearing about that isn't being talked aboutis the radicalizations of several of these students

(42:34):
and the potential for some of theseorganizations to radicalize and what they may do.
Let's not forget the Weather Underground.Okay, so the weather Underground,
Sixties bombings, the things that theydid radicalize group. Many of them went
to Columbia. Some of them,I still think, are there. It's
professors of some adjunct professor with tenuredto get paid to it on thousand dollars

(42:55):
a year of capitalism is evil.There is a movement to medicalize young people,
and I'm not going to wait untilit's done and all of a sudden
acknowledge the existence of it. Thisis a global problem that young people are
being influenced by those who are professionalsat radicalizing our children, and I'm not

(43:16):
going to allow that to happen.As the mayor of the City of New
York, I like that here here, here, here. One of the
things people are like, why didn'tthe cop show up sooner many of these
campuses. Here's the problem. We'vetalked about this at nauseum over the last
several years. You've allowed kids tokind of run everything we've given in in

(43:37):
so many different ways, and youknow, all of this microaggression DEI crap
all of this stuff that's happened,and campuses, you know, they got
scared. It's customers. Micro callsthat thing down a degree. It's a
receipt. You're spending a ton ofmoney to go there, and you allow
them to do some stuff, butthen you allow me get too far.
But many of these campuses, theydon't turn to the police because they have

(43:59):
their own police, and not justsecurity. In many cases they have police
that are actually university cops. Wherewere they? Very good question, and
to get on the campuses, theyhave to call sometimes and say, all
right, you know we need youguys, now, are our group Barney
five for them? They're not handlingit. We need you. That's how

(44:22):
flag folks, We'll take over ourbuildings and put another flag up. That
may be fine to other people,but it's not to me. My uncle
died defending this country, and thesemen and women put their lives on the
line, and it's suspicable that schoolswill allow another country flag to fly in
our country. So blame me forbeing proud to be an American. We

(44:44):
are not surrendering our way of lifeto anyone. God bless you Mary Adams
for saying that strong, baby strong. He's a democrat, I know,
but he's a former comp and he'snot a nut, and he's trying to
walk the fine line. But atsome point when they takeover and decide that
they're gonna put up the Palestinian flagor whatever they're gonna do, at what

(45:06):
point do we say, all right, you guys aren't playing anymore. You
guys were LARPing for a little while. It's time for the adults to come
back. And I blame the schoolsfor allowing this to happen. Yes,
they didn't raise themselves, but they'vebeen indoctrinated and pushed and then the outside
agitators easily get to them. Andalas we have this mess. And it
is three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty

Oh, it's all happening today.Plus we've got a great story about a
cat being mailed. You're gonna lovethat as well. It is the Chad
Benson Show. You're listening to theChad Benson Show. Did you hear what

(47:05):
aoc said? She said, thepeople that are coming into this country,
most of them it's because of climatechange. I didn't hear that one.
It's amazing. It is straight outof South Park. It's straight out of
South Park. Wow, Like,what is there? More? Is the
climate change? More than I know? Do you know something I don't know?

(47:30):
Like? What are you saying?What's going on down there? Yeah?
Rogan and Tulsi Gabbert talking about climatechange. We had to our buddy
on earlier this week talking about hisnew book out about climate change and realism
and climate change, saying that notthat it doesn't happen, and that we
don't have an impact, how bigof the impacts. It's much smaller than
you think. And this is allabout politics and money. Because if you're

(47:52):
able to control this narrative, guesswhat, you control everything. Many You
can control the narrative, change theway that they talk, get people afraid
to say certain things, shout peopledown, climate deny or you hate science,
whatever it is, and you thinkyou can start controlling the narrative,
and you can control their language.You change everything. And I've said this

(48:14):
for a while. They're going touse climate change as the new way to
allow people to come here into thesehere United States of America. Just fare
well with they can't live where theyare because we're evil and bad and climate
change best for those clips. Ijust saw one on Instagram the other day
from like nineteen eighty five, wherea news casters I think it might even

(48:35):
have been black and white, andshe's saying, the climate change scientists tell
us that we may only have tenyears before the Earth is destroyed. Nineteen
ninety two is going to be theyear. And then whoever made this clip,
they juxtaposed her clip with one fromBernie Sanders saying the exact same thing
with a different date. You knowhow many decades later. Actually here is

(48:59):
that little bit. I think you'llenjoy it. The Federal report today predicted
possible catastrophic warming of the Earth bythe nineteen nineties with a strong climate change.
What the scientists are telling us wedon't get our act together within the
next eight or nine years. We'retalking about cities all over the world,
major cities going on the water.One from nineteen eighty three and one from

(49:22):
twenty twenty. Still here climbate alarmism. Anytime you could take something politically and
turn it into something, you gottado it. And as legates said the
other day in his new book andwe talked about we had it on.
If you missed any of the podcast, if you miss any show red the
podcast. It was a great interview. The reality is they always changed the

(49:45):
date. It's like those people thatthink the end of the world's coming and
God's coming back, and then theytake out billboards and then it doesn't happen.
And so we got the math wrong. Always. We got the math
wrong. We've got to go backand figure it out. So we're waiting
continuing to do so. You watchthough, climate change is going to be
the new way to bring people hereand allow them to come here in droves.

(50:07):
Speaking of politics, yesterday, whathappened in the world of abortion is
that a world we should all beconcerned that this extreme abortion ban will put
desperately needed medical care even further outof reach for millions of women in Florida
and across the South Florida six weekabortion ban went into effect. We're seeing

(50:34):
the devastating impacts on women's reproductive freedom. Since Roe was overturned in states across
the country, women's health and livesnow hang in the balance. There you
go. That's Florida. Now Arizona. What did they do, because remember
they've got a ban that goes backas what eighteen sixty four? As long

(50:55):
way, I am glad that theyfinally did the right thing and overturn this
or voted to repeal this traconian ban. I'm looking forward to getting it to
my desk and signing it and gettingrid of this band once and for all.
That's good. That's Governor Hobbs there. So they've decided to repeal it.
Now you're thinking of yourself, well, the repealing, well, they

(51:17):
already have a fifteen week limit herein Arizona. And when the Dobbs decision
came up, If you guys don'tremember, the Dobb's decision came up,
that's when Roe v. Wade wentback. It was basically wiped out and
everything went back to the states.They had passed something pre the Dobbs decision
to make it fifteen weeks in Arizona. But when Roe went away, people

(51:38):
were asking questions, Well, waita minute, we got something from eighteen
sixty four, So which one iswhich? And they decided, okay,
we got to the court said,look, eighteen sixty four kind of supersedes
everything. You have to go withit. And then of course the Republicans
hymden halled about what to do,and finally they decided, right, we're
going to get rid of this oneand stick with the fifteen Weekman. Publicans

(52:00):
are abandoning the founding father's principles andour Republican Party platforms principles to join with
Democrats to expedite a near total repeal. An angry Republican there pissed at his
party. It is disgusting that thisis the state of the Republican Party today,

(52:22):
is it. No, it's thestate of the Remember, Conservatives who
are pro life are not the RepublicanParty. The Republican Party, as we
have to remind everybody, just likethe Democrat Party. Their goal isn't to
follow the principles of which they quoteunquote believe. It's to win races for

(52:44):
control in state houses, cities,and in DC. That is their goal.
The goal is to win. It'snot to follow the principles. And
that's why we have this conversation overand over again about well, you know,
life begins here, and we considerand talk about that, and I

(53:07):
agree, this is when life forgetby the way, scientists will tell you,
No, this is when life begins. The issue and this is where
we've always had to talk about thisover and over again. I've explained to
you, because I'll get a bunchof emails and tweets and whatnot. Separate
your morality, if you will,and the thought of this stuff with the
politics of it, if you can. For a second. Politicians' goals along

(53:32):
with the party, is to remainin power and win. That is their
number one goal. You might thinkthey're doing something to move your movement or
whatever forward, because this is thebelief you have. The reality of it
is they're going to use it foras much as they possibly can. But
at the end of the day,it's about them staying in power and it's

(53:54):
about the party winning. Yeah,you gotta win elections. Those are the
rules. We know that. Threetwo, three, five, three eight,
twenty four, twenty three. It'sa Chad Benson show, The Chad

(54:15):
Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, IndependentLife. This is Chad Benson. It's

(54:39):
going down currently on the campus ofUCLA firing robber bullets. Oh my god,
dear guess it's happening. It ishappening. Wow, I was telling
my kids yesterday. You know,this is history. You're living through this.
You're living through a portion of historythat's insane. We heard Mayor Adams

(55:01):
earlier talk about the fact that,no, it's not happening in in New
York. You're not going to climbup here and change out the American flag
for something else. This ain't happening. College campuses have some serious issues,
and they also have a bunch ofwhiners. Waitedless is a guy who's on
the campus of UCLA who is filmingthem and making fun of them. But

(55:24):
they're all kind of terrified of themat the same time. When they when
they try to when they when theytry to take out explicit materials from kids
schools and stuff like that, theny'all are against censor shit. But now
when a student wants to record,suddenly you're wearing masks, you're wearing sunglasses,
you're hiding your face. You're tryingto censor people's freedoms and rights.

(55:45):
Like man, y'all are very confusedwith a group of people. Then,
is this s JP giving you allthese rules or is this JAP You're prettily
I am because I'm a US innozence, so I'm free of twenty thing I
want. That's the cool thing aboutbeing US citizen when you when you work
hard and get into UCLA c Igot my GD in prison, so that
means less than one percent of uswill ever get any college degree. I'm

(56:07):
getting a college degree from UCLA.They're not one public university in the nation,
so I'm free to go anywhere onthis campus I want. You can
hold up all your sweaters. See, Oh, let's go over here.

(56:29):
Yeah, leave him alone. Don'twaste your time. He's just a First
Amendment auditor. He's not bothering you. Don't get triggered. I know it's
that time of the month, bro, but you'll be all right. Yeah,
listen to mommy. She gave youorders. Do what she said,
follow Ruth. Call them losers said. It's that time of the month.
Bro. We'll have more of campuschaos coming up soon. Speaking of chaos,

(56:52):
did you just mail your cat?Now? This story is hilarious and
I'll break it down for you asit goes on. There's there a couple
things to play for you. Butit's what you can't see that made me
laugh in this and what you canhear, which also makes me laugh.

(57:14):
She's pretty hidden in there right now. My kid, Balina is a little
timid. She's a hider. It'sa game she plays, yeah, and
she has a guilty pleasure. Sheloves to play in boxes. It's just
like part of her personality. Butit took her a little too far from
home. That was the worst part. We just had no idea what happened.
Two weeks ago, Galina vanished.She just mysteriously disappeared. We had

(57:37):
absolutely no idea what happened to her. Carrie and Matt Clark spent hours looking
for a sign of their beloved cat. They put tons of flyers up.
We contacted friends and family to helpus search. We searched for a whole
week. But when it seemed allwas lost, and then we got the
most amazing, insane news in theentire world. A phone call. Galina's

(58:01):
microchip was detected six hundred and fiftymiles away near Riverside, California. Oh
it was was it? By theway, As you're watching this, the
guy's just sit in there going Ijust wanted a dog, That's all I
wanted. It was a dog,sid maybe a kid one day. Now
this lady is just like, ohmy god, I can't believe it.

(58:22):
She's just like we looked everywhere,and the look on his face is like,
yeah, this is great. Wefound the cat. I just couldn't
even believe that she was in California. I thought it was a prank.
Like I still still hard to wrapmy rain around. Turns out Galina made
her way to California via Amazon.She was trapped in an Amazon package.

(58:43):
The clerks were returning some shoes inthis box, and it was in this
really big sized Amazon package. Galinamanaged to go undetected. We had no
idea, so Matt took her totook the package to the drop off without
knowing that our dear cat was inside. She was discovered by Amazon employee Brandy,
who took her under her care untilthe family could be reunited. And

(59:07):
we are so thankful for Brandy andfor everything that she did for our kitty.
Galina went six days without food orwater in the box. The clerks
say her recovery has been nothing shortof miraculous, like it was just the
best because I know that under othercircumstances that she wouldn't have been found.

(59:28):
We're just so happy to have heragain. Oh my goodness. And he's
like, yeah, that's just great. How did you Okay, I saw
the box. I'm still trying tofigure this out because how did that happen?
I've sent back stuff to Amazon.At no point in time when I'll
be packing step I've gone, oh, my cat'sitting there. I'm just going,

(59:52):
I'm sorry. I just I what, like, you know, how
much shoes weigh, and and ifthe shoes, you know, you pick
them up, they weigh virtually nothing, and the box weighs ten pounds or
eight pounds, you'd be like,what did we put in here? But
you mailed the cat. Remember allhe wanted was a dog. Just got

(01:00:13):
to look at his face. He'slike, yeah, this is great.
Yay. Are you body neutral?What does that even mean? Do you
define the healthy weight for your soul? No? No, I don't think
about it at all now ever,because I don't practice body positivity. Body
positivity is for people who live inmuch larger bodies where they are actively discriminated
against. I practice body neutrality,which has been a complete almost divorce from

(01:00:36):
my body. So I'm like,my body is this vessel that gets me
from A to B. It's nowbasically my car. You know, I
don't look at it any longer asa reflection of me. It is not
an advertising billboard for other people.It is not there for them to judge.
It's not there for me to judge. It's a vessel that carries around
my brain. So it's a meatsuit like Edgar was and Men in Black
plug and Edgar was a meat suit. That's all it is, carries around

(01:00:59):
your brain. That's it. That'sJamila Jamal who is an actress, activist,
host Gentle with doctor Goopa. She'sbody neutral, then the body's just
nothing. It's just a vessel forstuff like her consciousness and brain. I
have a job that unfortunately focuses onthe way that I look, so I
have to show up and present acertain way sometimes. But I've separated my

(01:01:21):
identity from my esthetics. We've challengeda diet industry that diet culture in a
thoughtful and compassionate way. If Iimagine this will be something you look back
on and say, yeah, I'mreally really glad that I did that.
We're obsessed with young women to thepoint where we expect all women of all
ages to emulate the face and thebody of a young woman. Eternally,
we see no value in a womanwith age, or with a woman with

(01:01:42):
experience. With every year, Irecognize my value increases. Oh does it?
And you're in a job that,yes, looks as important. That
goes from men too, by theway, looks as important. If not,
then why, you know, whyaren't there more newmans from Seinfeld in

(01:02:02):
leading roles comparatively to Ryan Gosling,who is we all knowst beautiful or Brad
Pitt. Oh my god, he'slike a great god. With every year,
I feel stronger, I feel smarter, I feel more confident, I
feel more optimistic, I feel lessanxious. I love growing older, and
I find it hysterical that I amnow at an age that when I was

(01:02:24):
younger, I thought would make meinvisible. Yeah, well you're still beautiful
and you work at it. That'sa part of it. I mean,
we could pretend that looks don't matter. They absolutely matter. One they matter,
especially if you're in front of acamera. It matters. And yes,

(01:02:45):
growing old let's let's be one hundredpercent honest too. Now growing old
is much different. People take careof themselves in ways they never did before.
People ask me, do do youis it? You know? Like
because my kids are like, doyou feel like you know? You can
say you know what? I well, I act like I'm a tan at
times, but getting old it's it'snot for Wolz's but it's also not awful.

(01:03:10):
But yeah, I mean, Iworry about my looks. I try
to take care of myself. I'mworking out harder than I have in years.
But I also recognize that I wakeup some days and I'm like,
oh I got him? I sore? Wow? But looks do matter?
Body neutral that's interesting as opposed tobody positive, which are people who are
positive no matter what, which isgood. It's good to have a positive

(01:03:34):
outlook on life. But the bodypositive thing is basically as a way of
lying to yourself. It's a wayof lying to yourself and saying I'm good.
I'm good enough as a person.You might be great body wise and
health wise, you could you couldwork a little bit more, and there's
nothing wrong with that. It's notbeing mean, that's being honest. And
we don't like honesty in today's world. Three two, three, five,

(01:05:36):
hashtag help. I'm trapped in ahashtag factory and I can't get out
the Chat Business show. My auntis a comvas from which I paint my
identity on a sustaining foundation of mylivelihood. It is the very essence of
my being. Yet this is underthreat, that right there is. British
singer Fka Twigs see earlier this week, was at a Senate testimony hearing about

(01:06:03):
intellectual property, how to protect yourselfdeep fakes, and she's readily admitted she
has set up deep fakes to engagewith her fans. At the same time,
she's worried about what is coming,and there's a need to be worried
if you're an artist. What isnot acceptable is when my aunt and my

(01:06:23):
identity can simply be taken by athird party and exploited falsely for their own
gain without my consent due to theabsence of appropriate legislative control and restriction.
The problem is, how do youdo that. She's over the past year
she's been creating AI versions of herselfthat can use the tone voice exactly like

(01:06:44):
her, to speak in multiple languages. She's done this so she could reach
out to more fans, which isbeing done a lot, because think about
this, if you're a creator,whether it's it's online as this, you
know kind of I'm an influence her, or you're somebody who sings songs and
all of these things. In Europe, big artists the language barrier. You

(01:07:06):
may speak French, so you've gota just a finite group of people you
can reach may speak English. It'sthe same thing being able to translate and
to actually have that in a waywhere people can hear you. It's incredible.
So she's talked about all these things, but at the same time,
she understands what's going on and thefact that it only takes a second to

(01:07:30):
exploit all of this amazing stuff withAI and the stuff that's going to be
bad because as stuff's being put outthere right for the world to use.
And we're going to talk about someof the new chat GPTs and some of
the things coming next hour with ourtech guy Paul Lamone, because there's some
new stuff and he's going to walkyou through some of the easy things to

(01:07:53):
do. Because I know a lotof you who hit me up. Yeah,
AI stupides is any other you're intimidated? I get it. But there's
it's going to be so tough tocatch so much of these people who the
minute something new comes out, there'sa group of people that want to exploit
it, whether it is you know, faking your loved one's voice to try

(01:08:15):
to get you to send the money, or who knows what. So we'll
see, we'll see what happens.But you know, this week they had
a hearing and I just you know, I think and this is one of
those things. And AI and I'vesaid this over and over again. The
most important thing potentially that we haveseen well in our lifetime, more important

(01:08:35):
than the web and all this kindof stuff. This may be, this
is fire, This is the wheelelectricity, This is how big this thing
is? Three two, three,five, three eight, twenty four to
twenty three actually had Benson shows yourTwitter tweeted at is text to program.
Hey, let's have a little funwith nature. Nature weird because it will

(01:09:05):
and it can. Last year wasthe deadliest year on record on Mount Everest,
eighteen people dead and five others unaccountedfor. Why people go up there
is beyond me. It's to challengeyourself. What's that great meme? Hey,
you know all those people that aredead on Mount Everest, yet they

(01:09:27):
were motivated too, So calm down. Why people want to challenge themselves?
And spring this time of year isthe year that you go up there.
Now, what would happen if youwent up to Everes righte to second,
If someone teleported from sea level tothe top of Mount Everest, things would
go bad fast. At an altitudeof eight and forty eight meters, barometric

(01:09:51):
pressure is approximately thirty three percent ofwhat it is at sea level. This
means there's significantly less oxygen in theair, and our teleported individual would likely
suffocate in minutes. Yeah. Adoctor speaking to CNN, doctor Jacob Weasel,
Weasel trauma surgeon, said hey,I thought I was in great shape.

(01:10:15):
I would put on a fifty poundbackpack, do two hours of stair
steppers with no problem. He gotup there, and he says, I
got humbled fast. I would takefive steps and have to take thirty seconds
to a minute to catch my breath. It takes months. When you land
up there, You're probably gonna spendninety days before you even try the summit.

(01:10:35):
You go up a little bit,you come back down. You go
up a little bit, you comeback down. You go up a little
bit, come back down. Thisis what he said. What happened to
somebody if you teleported them there,they would go into a coma between ten
and fifteen minutes and within an hourthey would die. Oh my goodness,
Bear Grills, you remember him.The big mountains are humbling, you know.

(01:10:57):
And sometimes you take on this bigprojects and it's about come on,
we're going to do it, andyou're you're full of that confidence, but
it's often quite surface, and Ithink when you see things close up,
and I think I came away withthe real awareness of that I've been really
lucky and got away with my lifewhile others hadn't. Up then this stage,
Everest was killing one in six people'slives, you know, and beforehand

(01:11:19):
I read about that and it wasalmost kind of it was almost glamorous.
It was almost like romantic. Youknow, you see the reality of it
close up, and it's it's notromantic. It's dark and difficult and confusing.
And I think my feeling at theend of it was that I got
really lucky. You know, I'vebeen, no doubt, dug deep in

(01:11:40):
a few big moments, and youknow, it was some ninety two days
on that mountains. There's a lotof time you do have to dig deep,
but ultimately had a bit of luckat key times. And I think
I came a way aware of thatand grateful for that, but less certain
that just because you're determined in lifedoesn't mean everything is going to go well.
He also said he wouldn't do itagain. He wouldn't do it again.

(01:12:03):
They leave the dead bodies up therefor those of you not keeping score,
they don't bring it down so theycan bury you. That is your
tomb And last year was the worstyear ever and it is going to be
a bumper crop of new people tryingto climb Everest. And they do it
in spring because there's a small windowof which to do it. Expect to

(01:12:26):
spend about three months plus there.Oh and it's not cheap. Talks about
it. Yesterday's gonna cost you aboutone hundred thousand dollars or so to climb
it. Little nature will mess youup. So if you're thinking about doing
it, if I didn't talk toyou out of it, make sure you
give us a shout out when you'reon top of the hill. We appreciate
that. Three two, three,five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benson Show isyour Twitter tweet at us text the program.

(01:12:47):
We do love hearing from all ofyou. If you miss any of
the show, you can always grabthe podcast. It is the Chad Benson
Show. This is the Chad BensonShow, Independent Thoughts, Independent life.

(01:13:24):
This is Chad Benson. You yousee seat seat seat l l L L.
Hey you see lay fight fight fight, fight, there's a fight on
cabas. There's a fight on cabas. Something is about to take place,
as officers finally come face to facewith these protesters in the encampment who have

(01:13:44):
been preparing to guard the entrance tothe encampment. Yes, that's right,
it's going down. It is squabbling, rubber bullets, flying, fireworks going
off. It's happening. Batons out, shields out, riot you're full.
Riot gear is in place here asthey make their way up the staircase.

(01:14:05):
Riot gear. Good name for aband. How many people we're talking about
three hundred CHP officers who are gettingready to force their way into this encampment.
Good, you're doing it. Getin there, take them out.
Really, no, I don't carewhat they do. If you're not threatening
the Jewish students, if you're nottelling them to go and die in the

(01:14:27):
gas chambers, which they have been, if you're just whining, bitching and
moaning about Palestine and your goal isto bring the glorious message of Hamas to
the world and Iran to the world. They're offering the free scholarships you want
to go over there, I don'tknow how many women want to. But
if you do hey, knock yourselfout. Fantastic, Go ahead and do

(01:14:49):
it. Please, please feel freeto do it. I know some of
you are like you seem very antifree speech. I am one hundred percent
about free speech. Knock your selfout. When you threaten students and other
people with violence, when you tellthem you're going to globalize if'tata and you

(01:15:11):
want to kill them and all Jewsshould die, and you threaten them and
you don't let them into places they'reallowed to go into. When you then
take over certain areas of the university, like buildings itself, well that's a
you problem. But if you wantto spread the message of love that many
of these these groups like a Mossand Iran bring, knock yourself out.

(01:15:32):
Here's a woman who loves the messagethey bring. She is a person who's
an activist. No, she's aperson who's just telling the truth about her
life experience. Rwan Osama goes onchallenges these activists, tells them, hey,
let me tell you what it wasreally like in the West. You
are privileged. You can demand evenwithout understanding bar Where I come from,

(01:15:59):
we don't demand it. We aregrateful if we find the means to feed
our children to pay the rent tobuy our medication. We are thankful if
we're not arrested, portraured and raped. You should know that you are supporting
our oppressors, that you are betrayingus, all of us. The Garsens

(01:16:20):
include Yeah, she's not finished,she's more to say. Life was held
and it still is for the majorityof people in Lebanon, Syria, Iraqian
and Iran thanks to the Iranian regimeand its allies and proxies. The Iranian
regime you claim has the right todefend itself, its proxies such as romas

(01:16:45):
that you are championing on the streetsin the West. Have you ever wondered
why we haven't seen mass pro Palestineprotests in the Middle East. See in
the West, you are privileged.You can't demand even without understanding. Yes,
because they don't understand. There area bunch of kids who are spoiled.

(01:17:08):
You've got people in the professional agitatorsand activists and people that are radicalizing.
We touched on the last hour.I want to go back to it
again. This is Mayor Adams talkingabout why they moved in, but also
talking about why you know, howhe loves America. What's going on in
the campus? Is this insanity?You have talked more about the outside agitators

(01:17:30):
at Columbia, at least at thispoint. I understand there were three hundred
people arrested last night. Do youhave any ability at this point to tell
us how many of those were outsideagitators. I've always suspected that something was
problematic when I first saw this,and it wasn't until the Intelligence Division gave
me a briefing and confirmed my concerns. We had clear evidence of training that

(01:17:51):
was conducted by an outside agitator thatwas not a student, did not believe
belong in a campus. What outsideagitators? Yeah, this isn't something that's
you know, organic, the waythat you think it starts out potentially with
we can get a few kids andit's organic and we're out there, but

(01:18:11):
it grows and there's something behind it, something that people are worried about.
I received a letter from the school, and in the letter from the school
that asked us to come in,they said it was a clear and present
danger and that they had outside individualswho were on the grounds participating in this
activity. Are we going to everget a breakdown from the three hundred and

(01:18:32):
how many were students and how manyweren't. We are going to give the
complete list of those who were arrestedand turn it over to the school,
and the school will make the determination. We're not going to release students' name,
but the school can make the determinationof the difference between students and non
students. Yeah, as we shouldThe Three Hundred. I love that movie.

(01:18:54):
Do you remember when The three Hundredcame out? Spot up and Muslim
organizations and stuff got upset about itbecause of the depiction of Xerxes and the
Persians And did that really even happeneven though it's been documented and stuff.
Obviously for the movie it was made, you know, much more entertaining.

(01:19:17):
But it started even back then,right you know, continue, mister Mayor.
I saw similar indicators from the BlackLives Matters March when it was brought
to my attention that there were thosewho came to the city to disrupt our
city. And I know that they'rethose who are attempting to say, well,
the majority of people may have beenstudents, you don't have to be

(01:19:40):
the majority to influence and co opand operation. That is what it's about.
And so if we want to playthe road police, you could do
so, I want to play theNew York City Police. Well, we're
going to protect our city from thosewho are attempting to do what is happening
globally. Yeah, talks about theradicalization. That's one of the things NYC

(01:20:03):
has been warned of, radicalization ofpeople inside of these groups who are being
radicalized. There was a movement toradicalize young people. And I'm not going
to wait until it's done and allof a sudden acknowledge the existence of it.
This is a global problem that youngpeople are being influenced by those who

(01:20:24):
are professionals at radicalizing our children,and I'm not going to allow that to
happen. As the mayor of theCity of New York Strong, Mayor Strong,
Now this I love. This isabout the flag, and we've seen
it over the last couple of days. They go they undo the flag,
take it down, whatever you know, And he said, no, not

(01:20:45):
here, not in my city.That's how flag, folks. We'll take
over our buildings and put another flagup. That may be fine to other
people, but it's not to me. My uncle died defending this country,
and these men them and put theirlives on the line, and it's suspicable
that schools will allow another country flagto fly in our country. So blame

(01:21:08):
me for being proud to be anAmerican. We are not surrendering our way
of life to anyone. You know, they're gonna come after them, They're
gonna call them all kinds of horriblenames because you are the black face of
white supremacy. That's what they're gonnasay. Oh my lord, from UCLA
to NYU, Columbia, Berkeley,up An, Oregon. That's going on.

(01:21:33):
Oh god, what are you doing? You're giving into Portland's there.
You guys could have what you want. This is what happens. And there
is so much of this that iscoordinated, and we need to get a
handle on it. We do.We need to get a handle on it.
Will these schools do they have theballs to do it? That?
I don't know. I doubt it. And then what happens is you allow

(01:21:56):
it to get to the point whereit's so bad that when the police,
like you say at UCLA and severalother places, move in, well,
then it's a spectacle. Nip itin the butter like three two, three,

on college campuses? How did weget here? That is a great question

(01:26:21):
on how we got here, Andwe're going to have a man on a
Tuesday to talk about how we gothere. Pursuh's got a book coming out
talking about it's basically been one hundredyears in coming in the making, and
this lunacy on college campuses that helpus get to this place. And I'm

(01:26:41):
telling you guys right now it isin full effect. And if you don't
believe me, I want to goback twenty four hours. So something we
talked about, now, let's rememberthis. Remember this lady, we know
who she is. Now we're sayingthat they're obligated to provide food to students
who pay for a meal plan here. But you mentioned that there was the
question that food and water be broughtin unless saying it's to allow it to

(01:27:02):
be brought in. I mean,well, I guess it's ultimately a question
of what kind of community and obligationColumbia feels it has to its students.
Do you want students to die ofdehydration and starvation or get severely ill.
Even if they disagree with you.If the answer is no, then you
should allow basic. I mean,it's crazy to say because we're on an
ivy Leaue campus, but this islike basic humanitarian aid we're asking for,

(01:27:25):
like could people please to have aglass of water? Yeah? And she's
getting destroyed online for that silliness andthat then afterwards, and we've been talking
about this. I think this guysummed up everything we need to know about
these folks getting The majority of thesecollege students honestly know exactly what they're protesting
for. The majority of these collegestudents are here on a government loan.

(01:27:47):
They are studying something unbelievably stupid.They are basically being built for money.
They have no idea it's the nextcool thing to do. The average person,
I think at these protests is thekid that isn't cool, good looking
enough to be invited to a houseparty. So because they're not invited to
a house party, they make theirown, which is out here, which
is why what happens when they summonthese people with this flyer, ten thousand

(01:28:10):
of them show up. These areten thousand people with nowhere else to be
the stupid thing they're studying. Well, we know who that lady is,
Joanne king Slutsky or Johannah king Slutsky. Now you're saying to yourself, well,
she's getting her PhD. Is whatI heard? Yes, she is
getting a PhD. Oh, mysmarty, Mcsmarterson, is it in something

(01:28:34):
amazing? Is she getting a PhDin engineering? So no, no,
no, you guys ready for this. This is her biography. My dissertation
is on Fantasies of limitless energy inthe Transatlantic Romantic Imagination from seventeen sixty to
eighteen sixty. My goal is towrite a prehistory of metabolic rift, Mark's

(01:28:55):
term for the disruption of energy circuitscaused by industrialation industrialization under capitalism. I'm
particularly interested in theories of the imaginationin poetry is interpreted through a Marx's lens,
in order to update and propose analternative to historics ideological critiques of romantic
imagination. No Pollck wrote, Sothe press conference jihadis is a PhD student

(01:29:21):
named Joanna Kingsletsky, and she's thisis what she's working on. We just
read it absolutely Dying beyond parody atBabylon Bee couldn't top this if they tried.
There's your revolutionary kids. I'm writingpoetry about romantic imagination from seventeen sixty

(01:29:43):
to eighteen sixty. Oh man,you can't make it up. It is
parody. They're absolutely right. Sheis. She's something. There's something about
that. We really need our snacks. Some of these people have low blood
sugar three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty

(01:30:04):
three. At Chad Benson's show,is your Twitter tweet at a text to
program coming up? Because it's Thursday, We're gonna do a little tech talk.
Paulo Moone joins the program. Peopleare freaking out. One in four
jobs could be at risk sooner ratherthan later, and that includes white collar
jobs that many people who are goingto college think, well, I got

(01:30:26):
this, so I'm gonna be fine. Got these great degrees, it's gonna
be great. E you better watchout. AI is coming for him.
But can you use AI for goodto help your job? We'll talk about
that straight At Chad Benson Joe,The Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts,

(01:31:06):
Independent Life. This is Chad Benson. It's that time of the week,
we talk tech, mostly AI becauseit's taking over the world. Polomone are
resident tech guru, former big employeeat Blizzard, runs much of tech companies
now, all right, Paul firstand foremost. Every time I turn around,
there is places saying one in fourjobs will be eliminated in the next

(01:31:30):
six months. And you hear allof this stuff, and you and I
are a huge proponent of AI.How do we get people to stop freaking
out about it? Because I geta bunch of people talking about it all
the time that will send me emailsand texts and tweet and all kinds of
stuff, and they're afraid and oflosing their job. Not so much about
learning about AI, but afraid oflosing their job. Is because just like

(01:31:56):
when you have a transition in anykind of technology from the candles to the
electric candle makers lost their jobs,but a whole new set of electrician jobs
opened up. Right now, thetransition is there's gonna be a lot of
jobs lost, but not jobs topeople that know how to harness US and
be one of the people that haveAI as a tool for their job performance.

(01:32:18):
And that's what seems to be themissing key. I think it's when
I talk to artists. For example, artists are a big key in this
when it comes to fear of losingtheir jobs because they said, well,
the AI can paint amazing pictures,make videos, do all kinds of stuff,
but it doesn't know the creativity andit doesn't it's not that simple.

(01:32:38):
So if you want a certain angle, a certain shot, a very specific
character to do a very specific thing, and artists still needs to be involved.
It's going to be a brand newtool set, but they're going to
have to be part of that factor. Well, that goes for all the
jobs. So even whether it's customerservice, which is going to be impacted
greatly by aire's still going to besomebody that's going to have to use and

(01:33:02):
make sure the AI is performing ata human level with a human type of
personality, interaction, et cetera.So that's a whole new job that people
aren't considering. Yeah, and that'suh, you know, that's I don't
think people realize that. And Iget the fear factor. Let's be real.
I mean, you and I wewere joking about it last night.

(01:33:24):
One of the large radio companies.The joke I've always said, you know,
there's several of them that you rememberthat one guy you've always wanted to
fire, the last guy in theoffice, Well now you can because of
AI. And there is a certainsense that that that is it's definitely coming
in many industries that have already seenmassive downsizing. The thing is, though,
when you go and hire a humanthat can do what do they call

(01:33:45):
these guys, prompt engineers. Thereality is is you go in to hire
a prompt engineer, but it's stilla lot of jobs lost. What other
jobs are going to be created outsideof that, or what jobs are safe?
Blue collar jobs safe for now?Well for now, But I don't
know if you've seen some of thelatest robot releases that are terrifying and amazing.

(01:34:08):
So factory workers, warehouse workers,some construction looks like it could be
impacted by robots within the next fiveyears in a very large way. And
the crazy thing is is even fiveyears ago, if you said robots would
be become a factor in warehousing thatkind of thing, people would probably laugh

(01:34:30):
at you. But we are exponentiallygrowing in the technology achievements when it comes
to robotics mixing with AI that nowyou have a humanoid robot that walks around,
can see the environment, can doall the basic tasks a human could
do in a warehouse for example,or even cooking. They have an amazing
demo of a robot flipping you know, pancakes or omelets out of a pan

(01:34:54):
while it's cooking, just like areal chef. Wood. We have to
grapple with the fact that AI cantake away the non what do you call
it, the unbodied work. That'sgonna be the first step, the thing
that doesn't require a physical form,but very quickly, AI powered physical forms
robotics is going to take away anotherstep of employment. So honestly, you

(01:35:18):
have to get to the forefront ofthis. You have to understand the AI,
understand its limitations and its benefits andhow that becomes a companion to how
you work. What's the biggest andthat's what's the biggest limitation to it?
Like right now, we know thatit's like you said, the artists and
stuff like that, because we workwith some famous artists who are not fans
of this because they feel it's gonnacome in and steal their stuff. But

(01:35:41):
what is the biggest limitation at thismoment in time? Creativity? Creativity and
basically human level problem solving. Thatis the biggest limitation, and that will
that will become less of a limitationin probably the next two to three years.
Right now, it can do therepetitive tasks of an assembly line,

(01:36:03):
the repetitive task of putting boxes ina certain order at a warehouse, that
kind of thing. But if youcame in and told it to do something
brand new, Hey we just gotthis shipment in of something, figure out
where it goes. You still needa human to help it organize that kind
of thing, to teach it thatnext level of organization that also includes the

(01:36:24):
creative. AI can't just come upwith an idea. Well it can,
but it can't come up and itcan't come up with a good idea,
a good idea. It's stealing fromother ideas. It steals from other ideas
and then puzzles it together, puzzlesit together, and a lot of times
puzzles together because it takes basically amissmash of other people's writings, works,

(01:36:48):
music, whatever it is, andcreates a new version of that. We
still need the guiding principal people.That's what the guiding people. The people
come up with the real creativity thatsays, I'm going to paint this amazing
picture. Now. AI can helpme paint it in quicker time, can
help me get details. I maynot have been to to make it in

(01:37:11):
formats. I may not have beenable to to do, you know,
because of budgets and constraints. ButI still need that creative to be the
spark that sets the AI on acourse that gets you the result that really
is meaningful, and that's still gonnabe. I don't see how that's gonna
get I don't see how AI isgoing to take that spark creation part over

(01:37:34):
for a very long time. Yeah, Yeah, that's good. That's that's
good. Here the kind of sortof if you're but basically the rest of
you, you're all screwed talking toPaul Lamone, our tech guru. All
right, So I mean we talkabout all this like today, yesterday I
saw that a bunch of companies areshowing are shoing chatch ept because they're writing

(01:37:55):
news stories these AI things, andthey're going in and essentially going to New
York Times and the AP and Reutersand just polding their stuff and rewriting news
stories. But that's what AI does. That's why you're talking about the creative
side of it is AI is notsitting there and you're not. You've got
to still prompt it to do things. It's not saying to itself, Hey,
you know what, I'd love towrite an article about college campus craziness.

(01:38:17):
It's not thinking about that. Butwhat it can do amazingly is say
a bunch of people reported on collegecampus craziness. It looks at all those
reports, consolidates it into a multipleviewpoint report for you, an article that
says, here's five, six,seven different reports coming from different news agencies,
and here I've summarized it into whatthey all believe and think and give

(01:38:42):
you a better understanding of the whole. Then it would link to all those
so you could independently look at it. That's the power of it, and
I love that about AI. Ilove the fact that we don't word to
live in a busy world, whichwhen everybody has their jobs taken by AI,
maybe it won't be as busy.But right now it's so busy that
the idea that AI can do alot of that busy work for you is

(01:39:03):
I think something that people need toembrace too, and that just like you
said, like, they're suing AIfor doing what basically most influencers and bloggers
do and YouTubers read a bunch ofarticles and then tell you their viewpoint on
it. How just because AI isdoing it, how can you sue for

(01:39:24):
that? I just AI is stealing. It's one thing. But if it's
saying, hey, this is theAI reporting, well, it's doing what
a human would do. Yeah,because we don't quite have robot reporters down
on the scene, I'm not surethat's not going to happen soon yet.
Yeah, but I mean, youknow these things are coming. If you're
let's just say you're you're twenty eightyears old, You're sitting around and you

(01:39:46):
think of yourself, Okay, whatdo I do? Where's the future going
to? Because we've talked about coding, which used to be the thing.
It's like kids learn the code.Now that you know, kids learn to
Like, if you were to tellsomebody, yeah, like I've always said,
our problem with schools we teach everybodywhere we've been. We're never teaching
where we go. Where are wegoing? We're going into a world where

(01:40:13):
knowing what AI agents to use tofulfill a task is going to be the
main for I think for a littlewhile going to be the main skill set,
saying, oh you want me todo X tax. These are the
two, three, four different AIagents that I've identified that will allow me
to do that task more efficient,quicker, better, and cheaper in the

(01:40:35):
long run. So maybe I personallyam taking over the jobs of four people,
but that still gives me job securitybecause I still need to be there.
Yeah, so my personal you know, salary might be higher, but
the company's overall overhead is dramatically lower. And I think that we need to

(01:40:57):
look at it like that and lookat the technical jobs like I always go
plumbers, electricians, you know,construction workers. There could be a point
when there's tasks that the AI won'tbe able to do. It can load
a truck full of lumber, butit might not be able to figure out
how to nail it all together tomake the structure for the house just right.
It can, you know, maybefigure out how to load that palette

(01:41:19):
of bricks and mix the cement,but it still needs a human to make
sure that everything's up to code andis on par with what we want,
because you know, if AI makesa mistake, it could go a mistake
that would be replicated over and overand over again. So all of a
sudden, a brick wall could begoing, you know, in different circles
or something, because it just keptgoing and no one was there to wrangle

(01:41:40):
it. I think that we reallyneed to realize that we have a superintelligence
that's about to be competing with intellectualwhite collar jobs in a big way.
And how to white collar job holdersuse that super intelligence to solidify their position?

(01:42:06):
And and and that's that's the interestingthing because at some point it will
be, like I think Elon mustsaid, it's going to be smarter,
not just than most humans, it'sgoing to be smarter than all humans ever.
Yes, and that's going to bean interesting world, that is.
And honestly, I don't think anybodyreally knows what that means at the end
of the day. No, notalking to paul A Mona, our tech

(01:42:28):
guru. All right, if somebody'ssitting around right now, they're listening to
the radio, they're checking out ourpodcast whatever it is, and you and
you they came to you and theysaid, all right, Paul, what's
the one thing like take Away ChatGPT, what what's something I could go
to and and start to really learnabout play around with in the AI world
that's not super intimidating and and youknow, and I could learn some stuff

(01:42:53):
because I think the big thing ispeople are intimidated by it and the things
that we don't know we fear.So Like if you were to tell somebody,
hey, go check out this andthis and just kind of get a
feel of what it is, it'snot going to scare you, and you're
not gonna make any mistakes. You'renot going to blow up the Internet.
Start talking to it. Pick GeminiClaude. Claude right now is my favorite.

(01:43:15):
Gemini claud chatch GTP. Ask itquestions. Ask it questions about everyday
life. Ask you questions about anythingyou can think of really honestly, Like
you want to know why there's aconflict in Israel that goes back one hundred
years, ask it if you wantto know why you know how this bridge
you're going over, Like what wasthe why do this suspension bridge work in

(01:43:39):
a certain way? I mean literallyjust start using it almost like an Internet
search, to ask it question andthen get familiar with the conversation because that's
what it is and that's what peopledon't realize AI right now is a conversation.
It's not just like a Google searchwhere boom, here's a bunch of
answers. Choose what you like.It's ask a question, comes back in
answer. You can and then askit because it remembers ask a question based

(01:44:01):
on that answer, and it becomesa conversation with a machine. That's the
simplest way to get over the mysterybehind AI, to start making it go.
Oh, I get it now.It's something I can talk to and
then of course figure out, well, I've got a business need or something
like that. Ask it is therean AI is claude, can you actually

(01:44:24):
help me with this business proposition?Or is there another AI out there?
And it can help you and guideyou and help you learn how to use
it even it's an amazing tool.It is paula owned or tech guru for
one of the early people in Blizzardand which of course makes a bunch of
nerdy games because they're nt but that'swhat we love about them, run several
other companies as well. Appreciate youcoming on and we'll do it again next

(01:44:45):
week. Thank you, love talkingtech. Appreciate him coming on. Paul
the mote tell you what AI.Learn to embrace it, don't be afraid
of it. Understand that it canbe intimidating, but it can do so
many amazing things for you. AndI think we freak out. I think
the world's coming to an end andit's gonna you know, look, may

(01:45:06):
it, may it take the worldover. Well, that's a different discussion.
It's more militarily and you know that'sthat's a different discussion when it comes
to jobs. It's gonna upset everything, but it's gonna bring in a whole
new world that for me, Ithink it's gonna give us opportunities we've never
seen before, a gold rust likenothing we've ever seen before. Three two,

Jhoe Deep Stinks No Deep Doo dooe The Chat Benson Show, Lenny Grab
It recently went viral for a socialmedia post of him working out in leather

(01:46:55):
pants. He was lifting weights.It seemed like a strange choice, but
also a very Lenny choice, andhe revealed variety. Why the odd legwar
time. He says he is alwayscoming and going and doesn't see the point
in wasting time changing for a quickforty five minute workout. He says he
doesn't sweat that much lifting weight,so it's not an issue. But he's
not crazy. He says he wouldn'tdo cardio in leather trouser, such a

(01:47:15):
leny thing to do. What doyou bet he got his shirt off too,
Such a bizarre thing. Hey,dude, I gotta go lift weights.
You're to talks? Yeah I know. Don't I look good? Yeah?
Yes, I mean you know helooks a little odd, But it
is what it is. It ishad time of day as we wrap up
the show to teach you a fewthings so you can dazzle your friends at
parties with little silly, stupid informationyou found out that seems to be odd

(01:47:38):
but yet true. And then Igo and spoil it all by saying something
stupid. We'll take stupid pills thismorning. It's the honest ones you want
to watch out for because you cannever predict are they gonna do something incredibly
stupid? Now you're the fat,stupid one with the big mouth. Is
stupid little last time, you shouldnever run the rest of my the predictability

(01:48:00):
of stupidity. Now it's time fallstupid information. That's why, so we
wrap up the show today. Here'ssome silly stuff about exercise. The largest
muscle in the body is your booty, your butt gluteus maximus muscle. But
it is not the strongest. Itis just the biggest muscle. So when

(01:48:21):
you lose wait right, you're workingout. Do you know where the fat
goes? Breath? Did you knowthat breath? I know it sounds crazy,
but you know the old saying sweatis fat crying. It seems that
fat is actually released as carbon dioxidewhen we exhale. Well, that's just
interesting. Twenty five percent of yourbones in your body, especially when your

(01:48:42):
exercise, That's why it's important,are located to where the feet. Each
foot contains twenty six bones, thirtythree joints, and over one hundred muscles,
ligaments, and tendons. You burnmore fat during the twenty three hours
a day. So let's say youwork out an hour a day, You're
burn more fat in those twenty threehours and you will in an hour of
workout. But working out is importantbecause the more muscle you gain, the

(01:49:04):
more weight you lose. In fact, for every pound of muscle that you
have, you burn an extra fiftycalories a day. And the beauty of
exercise, well it helps your braineven more so than brain training exercises,
a little silly thing to learn onthe Chad Benson Show, You guys have
a blessed Thursday. We'll do itagain tomorrow. I see you Friday night,

(01:49:24):
night Jack. This is the ChadBenson Show.
