That we say, look, this is a moment where there are no bad ideas. A no bad idea brainstorm is what I'd like to call it. And in that no bad ideas brainstorm, we talk about what we need to do and think about doing around the Electoral College.
We talk about the idea of Supreme Court reform, which includes expanding the Supreme Court. Let's talk about statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C. These are the things I think that we've got to do. We've got to neutralize these red states from cheating. Really?
So she, if elected, Democrats really want to change the country, not make it better. See, whatever you want to say about the Tea Party, you could say that they stopped the Republicans from passing legislation and doing things. You could say that. But their objective was to be fiscally responsible, push back on Barack Obama, and there was no sense of cooperation. It drove Speaker Boehner nuts.
But I never doubted their patriotism. When I'm hearing these Democrats come back and talk about changing really all the institutions in government and knowing they got close last time, I can't believe she thinks it's her best interest to bring it up this time. Tyrus, host of Fox Nation. You'll see him on Gutfeld, What It Is America, and host of Planet Tyrus, which is a runaway success podcast, Tyrus. Why does she say this out loud?
You want me to solve the riddle of that? Yeah. Why does she say half the things outside? Like, ever heard of inner monologue? She's a walking oxymoron.
There's no bad ideas. Let's call it idea. The whole point of brainstorming is to weed out the bad ideas. Yeah. Like you're.
What? We were unburdened by what has been. I mean, it's just. It's this is the problem when you have activists. And not people of of substance.
I'm obsessed with Gadsod's book, Suicidal Empathy. It talks about this a lot. You know, where they say things that are counterproductive to the actual the well-being of America because it would rather be sound virtuous. You know, it's like they change the name, you're not homeless, you're unhoused. This type of nonsense.
And she is the queen of this type of nonsense.
So now it's she's trying to invent a new I call it the no bad idea brainstorm.
So do you think when we get on stage, we used to watch Democrats always talk about green energy. Ah, no gas powers by 2030, no gas, no oil, coal, like we're gonna do a ban coal and only okay. That's gone. I don't see but now I'm wondering why this is still there. She must have talked to a politician on this.
No. A political expert, don't you think? No, all their stuff is social media polling. That's what it is. The reason why that people eventually, you keep telling us every, we have to do this, this, and then eventually someone comes along and says, listen.
Everything you have that you're complaining about is fueled by the thing you want to get rid of.
So, if you get rid of gas, if you get rid of these things, the phones you use, everything, the car, they fly private jets. They're, again, oxymorons. They say things that sound good in theory and feelings, but they can't put any practicality to it. Those things you can eventually be like, here's this and this.
Now, what they're doing now is abstract.
So, it's inflatable. They can bring it in. That's how they get people to fall into this ridiculous. They play off, it's all emotional BS.
So, the other thing is the whole tax the rich and wealth tax and wealthy of the problem, pay fair. That's Bernie Sanders. Bernie Sanders was marginalized for two cycles. Even though he had popularity, they marginalized him.
Now, he is the kingmaker. He might have a senator. I think Mike Roger is going to win in Michigan. He certainly thinks he's got Graham Platiner that's going to beat Susan Collins, but the establishment, liberal Democrats, are marginalized.
So, they got the traditional Democrats. Who wants to revolutionize the government? Then you have people that just don't even like America. Yeah, there's a lot of anti-American people who are going into politics. Bernie is he's another one.
He's the the greatest, I think the most People got behind him because Their message is simple. Their message is to, I'm just be real, it's a lazy Americans. Hey, We'll tax the rich so you don't have to work. We'll do this so you can stay on your couch. It's a very self-defeating.
Prophecy to be like, hey, we're going to go after the people in America that are successful. The good news is that Americans want the American dream more than they want someone to do it for them.
So he'll have in his areas and his base, he'll never be able to be a president. They will get small censorships and house and those communities. Nice thing is, you can move out of those communities and go to other places in America. And they are. And that's what's happening.
There's a mass exodus in California.
So eventually, these things always run out of air. The world was going to end. Actually, we're all done right now, according to AOC and Bernie. What was it? 12 years ago, we had 10 years left.
So we're playing with house money right now, apparently. Do you see that Al Gore has changed his message to now we look out for the ice age? He brought global warming and climate change front and center. Yeah, and he said the polar bears were gone. The polar bear population is actually doing quite well.
Yeah. You know what? But the thing is, is because they don't. Apply real science. It's all feelings and what somebody comes up with because this planet has been changing.
We've had five mass extinctions on this planet. Could be six. We don't know. One day, 20 volcanoes pop up. The air changes.
Weather patterns change. No one told, Mother Nature doesn't care if you build a house on the ocean when there was no hurricanes in that area. Things change.
So then eventually, facts catch up and then they hop to the new one. The one thing I'm glad about that we got rid of the dinosaurs before we got here because that would have been arrogant. Right.
Well, we all. Were you on the founding fathers? You made the call. Good point. But I was sitting there with the pharaohs and the pyramids and the aliens and whatnot.
Like, do you imagine if we had to not only deal with traffic, but also with T-Rex?
Well, you wouldn't have traffic. Because they'd always be breaking the roads. to be able to get to that point we would all be living under rocks with Because we'd have to hide. We'd be hiding. We wouldn't have time.
But that's as bad as social media. That's as bad as social media. Are you sure you're not Democrat? Because that's like a Democratic thing right there. Are you shaming us?
We're on stolen dinosaur land. Is that what this is about? That's a good point. I do feel bad. I do feel bad.
See, that's that empathy, man. Empathy is good in small doses, but you should not rule it. I have God sad. God sad, yes. Yes, love him.
He has sympathetic empathy. The courage in this book is phenomenal. I read your last book. It took me about, I think it was like eight hours. I knocked it out.
This one I got at seven, and I'm already going back to look for different chapters. It's a really good book in terms of just looking, calling things for what they are. He doesn't pick a side, which I love. You never do either. You just present it, take it for what you will.
And very similar, you have very similar writing styles. Oh, he's a professor, scholar for 40 years.
Well Based on their performance in The Last Gut Phil, I would use the term scholar lightly. You do know certain things well. It's just your short game needs some work. I'll just say that one. Thank you very much.
Golf reference. I'm going to think about that a little bit later. I am going to tell you that our audience at home, we're going to have a quiz. I wanted to be a duel, but you're going to ask me questions about the Rockies. You know, Brian, I have spent most of my time on the Gutfell show protecting your reputation and interest.
Whenever Gutfell makes a crass joke, I literally say he's a friend. I defend you adamantly. And then what happened? And then you go out and lay the biggest egg ever on Gov. It wasn't so much that you, this is the this will forever be known as the pigeon incident.
On the Gutfille show. That might have changed the course of our relationship forever because now all he has to do is roll that tape, and I can't say anything.
So, this would happen. Do we have the footage? We have the tape, but I think it was some weird story. I'm saying, this is such a hard story to be able to do it. No, no, no.
Stop it. No, it was pigeonholes. Listen, you're doing, you're making excuse. I need you to own this. Cyrus, should I tell you this?
Brian, I need you to own this. I will, but you have to. The story is so dumb. It was a study done. The study was done in England that says pigeons allow men to get closer to them than women.
It was birds.
So, right.
So, I'm thinking to myself. This is the dumbest story ever. It's not. But I thought I had a story. We're actually from science because birds tend to pick up on emotions and anxiety.
But who cares? Because they're prey items.
So when they feel something else nervous, they get nervous. And typically, women are a little more nervous in cities than men are for good reason because there's men in the cities.
Okay, so here is the premise. Yeah. And here's what happened. And I go back to Rocky 2. And this blows up this whole study.
In the beginning of Rocky II, he needs speed. And Mick puts a pigeon in a pen. And he can't find that pigeon. And he's a man. But by the end of Rocky II, right before he goes into the ring to fight Apollo, I'm gonna blow the cover, he wins.
He gets the pigeon. And it shows you the best. It's a chicken, Brian. Damn it, man. It was a chicken.
And you had the this stuff. This is why they hate you. No, he does. This is why. This is why Greg.
I will never pick on Greg again for making jokes about you. I know. I know. You put a pigeon and you can't fly away.
So you wouldn't chase a pigeon. Oh, now I get it.
Okay. Bye. I want to see Damn it, man. You're shaking your head. I will relive that moment.
It's like I see it in black and white. It's very similar to Seinfeld when. George's dad talks about when he was cooking in NAM. You know, it was the just the slow-motion thing where now I can't live with Greg at all whenever he goes after you. Because uh the worst part about this is not on film is that the reason why it was so uh upsetting was that during the commercial break from across the room, My Friend.
We were friends at that point. Looks at me and says, Hey, Tyrus, you better get this movie reference. You're going to love this.
So it was set up. He was Babe Ruth calling his shot. Yes. And I popped up to second. No, you infield flied with bases loaded.
And the cold part was, it was so wrong on so many levels to absorb it. I don't believe you actually watched the movie at all, which is difficult for me. Given your height and proximity to Philly, I would think you would watch Rocky Agnazio. Rocky 2, I believe the coma, he was in a coma way too long. I would have pulled her out of the coma early, uh earlier, because it was way too much sitting around the hospital.
I am you were at a bad place in your life when you were watching it. His wife was in a coma from having his child and he still went and she woke up to tell him to fight. If she was only in it for 10 minutes and says, wake up and fight, well, she's taking a nap. Is that going to inspire you to fight the greatest Physical athlete in boxing at the time. He was a caricature of the great Muhammad Ali.
And when she said to lean in. What did Adrian say to Rocky? When?
Now, first said, come closer, and then she said, when, and then what happened? She smiles and the music hits and he starts jogging and he catches the chicken. True. All right, when we come back. Is that just a one-time The full pie.
Or do I really need to am I prepared to go run a perfect quiz game against Tyrus's Rocky Questions? That story when we come back, only on the Brian Kill Meet Show. I want you to try to chase this little chicken. What do I got to chase a chicken for? It's embarrassing, you know?
Because chicken chasing is how we always used to train in the old days. You catch this thing, you can catch grease lightning. Ready? Yeah, well, I'd rather eat it than chase it. It ain't very mature, but if you say.
Well, neither are you very mature. I'm a fighter, ain't a farmer. Come on, go on and get him. You look like a girl out there. What's the matter with you?
I feel like a Kentucky fried idiot.

It's been a big inspiration for me.
But Tyrus does not believe it. He's got a series of questions to ask me, which will reveal how much I know about the Rocky series. But I hope you're playing fair. Listen, I. Despite the disappointment and just sheer letdown of the incident on Gutfeld, I will say this.
You've had many highlights.
So it's just, you've hit a lot of big 50-yard field goals. You missed a chip shot, so it's a little discerning, but we're not ready to cut you from the team yet.
So show me, let me show you how to get some easy ones because let's just set it up. Let's get started.
Okay. What's Rocky's dog's name? Butkus. Hey, I don't get a bell or anything, Eric. I don't get nothing.
Okay, there you go. All right. Um.
Okay, where did oh this one where did Rocky and Adrian's first date? Happened. Very simple. At the ice rink. Picked her up from the pet shop, went right to the ice rink.
She had the thick glasses on and the hat. Yep.
Okay. All right, this again, this is a little Rocky one-ish. Yeah, well, that's on purpose. You got to prove one before you get into two, because two, there were some issues. We're getting there.
Rocky climbed the steps of what famous Philadelphia landmark? This is a. Easy one for you. The the state uh the state steps, the library steps. You know what?
It's the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Yeah. You know what, though? He steps. I'll give it to him.
He's a busy man. Thanks.
Okay. On which holiday does Rocky and Apollo have their historic first fight? Fourth of July New Year's Day.
Okay, because it was cold. It was cold. Remember, he was consonant and he was cold and hitting the stairs. I thought it was the 4th of July. He was dressing red, white, and blue.
Oh, no. They were celebrating the Bicentennial because it was New Year's Day. He's stalling. He's stalling. Please don't talk to the suspect.
This is an interrogation. This is not a game show. Yeah. You can be a good cop right now. Because right now, if I had an attorney, I'd call and I'd say, take this to the grand jury.
Here we go. Oh, man, I missed Judge Janine. What is Rocky and Apollo's rematch called in Rocky II? What's it called? I'll give you some examples because clearly this is going the way I feared.
Grudge Match 2, Super Fight 2, Ultimate Fight 2, Mega Fight 2. Ultimate. Let's just move ahead. What was Super Fight 2? It was on the thing, and he walked up and said it was a good idea.
This is not just people character.
Okay, all right, cool. Let's go with the easy one: Rocky 3, okay?
Okay. Where does Apollo take Rocky to be trained for his rematch with Clubberling? Los Angeles. There you go. That's a normal question.
I mean, that's what people care about. Yeah, that's because he had to learn to change his style of fights. Why don't you ask me that? This one I can relate to. Before his rematch with Rocky, a reporter asked Club Relain to make a prediction.
What is his prediction? Pain. Very good. That was in my wedding video, actually. It was also in your face when we had our little thing on the other side.
It was a little faceful, yeah.
Okay. Uh. All right, this one. If you don't get this one, I'm walking out of here and I'm never coming on this radio show again. What does Ivan Drago say to Rocky before their fight?
I must destroy you. I must break you. Or you will lose. I must break you. I didn't need multiple choice for that.
Oh, good.
Okay, okay, all right. Because then we broke the Soviet Union after that fight.
Okay. After Rocky 4, there is no Rocky 4.
Okay, you know, we don't have to do this the whole segment. No, no, no. How am I doing, by the way, Pete? Are you keeping score? How many have I got right now?
I think you're three and three. Three and three. Yeah, you're not making the playoffs, bud.
Okay, here we go. This one's tough. And this one, but this one's worth two. This will put him over the edge. And Rocky Balboa, as Rocky enters the ring, what is the theme song Polly picked out for him?
Is it The Best Is Yet to Come by Tony Bennett. High Hopes by Frank Sinatra, or Ain't That a Kick in the Head by Dean Martin? One more time. The choice High Hopes by Frank Sinatra. The best is yet to come by Tony Bennett.
Ain't that a kick in the head by Dean Martin? I don't think any of us. Just we'll pass.
Okay. I'm going to say Dean Martin. No, no, no. Who was it? High Hopes.
All right. Really?
Yep.
Uh Wait, they they played high hopes? Yeah. Pauli Polly makes a point of it. He goes, I like Sinatra. What is the name of the gym Rocky trains at?
It's mixed, Jim.
Well we all know it's Mixed Gym, but what's the name of it? No, no, this is the answer we were looking for is Mighty Mix. Mighty Mix. Are you sure you're not more of a sex in the city guy? Mighty Mix?
Is it really Mighty Mix? Yeah, that's the name of the sign, Mighty Mix. I mean, I'm telling you, Stallone Mix. This is your team. Stallone could not.
This is your team. Stallone could not have done better than me. You know what? I believe we could have Stallone on the show, but I don't know if that would be a good idea. He might have one more fight in him, Kill Mead.
Right.
And it's not Randall. This is Philadelphia Spectrum, Kill Mead, and Stallone. Take out Tyrit's podcast. I'm not on it. Ryan Reynolds here from Mint Mobile with a message for everyone paying big wireless way too much.
