[00:00] Very, very weird things happened and are
[00:02] about to happen in the next few days.
[00:04] And some of it, I'll be honest, gave me
[00:06] the creeps. I thought the episode of
[00:08] Candace Owens podcast will be the
[00:10] biggest topic. And don't get me wrong,
[00:12] she revealed some crazy things about
[00:13] Erica Kirk that I will discuss today
[00:15] with you guys. But the craziest thing
[00:17] happened before her show started. As I
[00:19] was waiting for it last night and
[00:21] scrolling through X, I saw this says,
[00:23] "She's real. She's honest. She's
[00:26] unconsilable." This is a post on
[00:28] Candace's old ex account that she was
[00:30] using when she was at Daily Wire. They
[00:33] published this promo trailer from back
[00:34] in a day in 2021 when she just started
[00:37] working with them and they published it
[00:39] now again. I went on YouTube, Instagram,
[00:42] same trailer posted everywhere about an
[00:44] hour before her podcast started. At
[00:45] first, I thought it was some kind of a
[00:47] mistake or maybe they were trying to
[00:48] steer attention away from the content of
[00:50] her show. Let's watch it together. The
[00:52] trailer.
[00:52] >> Are we good, guys? Are we rolling?
[00:58] In this age of [music] propaganda and
[01:01] the media has done a really good job of
[01:03] creating a caricature [music] of Candace
[01:06] Owens to be different about Candace at
[01:09] the Daily Wire. The timing [music] right
[01:10] now is really crucial to stand up on a
[01:12] platform and to say I'm here. I'm a
[01:14] conservative. I'm not [music]
[01:17] I am really committed to changing
[01:19] things. I have the courage to [music]
[01:20] stand by my convictions and genuinely
[01:23] believe in the importance of chap and
[01:25] that's why I'm really excited to join
[01:26] the Daily Wire team. This show is going
[01:28] to be uplifting, funny, political, is
[01:31] going to be all of the pieces of me.
[01:38] I was confused. Everyone was. I went on
[01:40] the comments first to find out what's
[01:42] going on. Here are a few of them. Nice
[01:44] try, B. Okay. Daily Wire is so bad off.
[01:48] They had to do this to get some revenue
[01:50] coming in. And then this one. This is
[01:53] weird. Are you really launching an
[01:56] entire show to counter Candice? That's
[01:58] icky. Yep. So, apparently it's
[02:00] happening. Daily Wire is using Candace's
[02:02] old social media to launch an entirely
[02:04] new show that will focus on mocking her.
[02:08] They will call it in the now. Now, to
[02:10] mock her phrase, I don't know. No know,
[02:12] but I know. I've never seen anything
[02:13] like this. Here is Candace explaining it
[02:15] further. They want hell or high water
[02:17] because it turns out the reason they're
[02:19] doing this and doing it on my channel is
[02:21] because they are trying to hard launch a
[02:24] young woman named Madison Bransford.
[02:26] Okay. Now, she's apparently an intern at
[02:29] the Daily Wire and she's they're
[02:32] basically dropping like an IC Carly type
[02:35] Nickelodeon feel show where she's going
[02:38] to make fun of me and the show is
[02:40] entitled In the No. No. because
[02:43] apparently they watch every second of my
[02:45] show, which they've been doing for a
[02:46] very long time. They used to send clips
[02:47] and have people make fun of me when I
[02:49] was first getting started. And so now,
[02:51] because they still can't let me go and
[02:53] since Ben is now on stage bringing me up
[02:55] and saying, "We don't know. No, but we
[02:56] know." Like, it's it's it's giving Crazy
[02:59] Extalker, they're now launching a show
[03:02] with this girl. I'm sure she's a lovely
[03:03] human being. It's basically like they
[03:06] tried to find someone that's similar to
[03:08] Brett, but it's not at all because it's
[03:10] not mature and she's just going to make
[03:12] fun of this show. So, that's what the
[03:14] Daily Wire has in store. I'm sorry to
[03:16] have scooped you on this new brilliant
[03:17] idea to hard launch something on my
[03:20] socials of somebody making fun of me. I
[03:22] sure you thought that was going to be
[03:23] get some like huge applaud. It's weird.
[03:26] It makes me uncomfortable if I'm being
[03:28] frank. I' I'd like you guys to move on.
[03:31] I understand now. this is it's never
[03:33] you're never going to stop. This is just
[03:35] what we are. We're just you're forever
[03:36] going to obsess about everything that
[03:37] I'm doing. I think it's a bad idea. I
[03:39] would kill it if I were you guys, but I
[03:40] see that you've already made a
[03:41] significant investment. Um and I hope it
[03:44] works out. I hope uh a person dedicated
[03:46] to to making fun of me in the note. I
[03:49] hope it works out for young young
[03:52] Maddie. Anyways, uh we now need to turn
[03:55] our attention back.
[03:56] >> So, let's see. Who is this girl that's
[03:57] supposed to be taking over Candace's
[03:59] social media and make fun of her for a
[04:01] living?
[04:01] >> Yep, that's me on the Bench Spir show
[04:03] yesterday. You're probably wondering how
[04:05] I got here. First of all, I am a
[04:07] political moderate. I did lean a little
[04:09] bit more right, especially over the past
[04:10] 5 years considering Biden didn't have
[04:12] cognitive function. So, I work two jobs
[04:15] because I'm a business owner. I manage
[04:17] socials for artists and businesses and I
[04:19] help them grow their platform. And I am
[04:20] also an editor for Ben Shapiro. I
[04:23] noticed over the past few weeks that Ben
[04:24] had been really passionate about the
[04:26] economy. I wanted Ben to sit down with a
[04:28] young person and teach them about
[04:29] capitalist economics because I was never
[04:31] taught that in school. Then they asked
[04:33] me to do it and I literally panicked. He
[04:35] is honestly one of the most hated people
[04:37] on the internet. Like is he a nice guy?
[04:39] Does he s I didn't know anything. I
[04:41] didn't know what to expect. So we sat
[04:42] down and we talked about economic
[04:44] policy. We talked about marriage. We
[04:46] talked about college. I can honestly say
[04:47] that Ben Shapiro is one of the kindest,
[04:50] most downto-earth famous people I've
[04:52] ever met. Second to Michael Nolles, of
[04:54] course. I'm just kidding. His comment
[04:56] section is one of the worst I've ever
[04:58] seen. And yet, he still cares. Kind of
[05:01] blew my mind. So, yeah, there's the
[05:03] story. Love you.
[05:06] I don't want to send any hate towards
[05:07] this girl. We don't know her. We don't
[05:09] know even what the show will actually
[05:11] look like, what she's going to be
[05:13] saying. But she likes Ben Shapiro, so by
[05:16] default. And it wasn't surprising that
[05:18] she's Ben Shapiro's new shiny toy. Of
[05:21] course, he's behind it. And of course,
[05:23] he's doing it all just because the giant
[05:25] ego in his tiny body and his [ __ ]
[05:27] horse's feelings have been bruised by
[05:29] Candice.
[05:30] >> She hated my feelings. Now I'm going to
[05:32] make fun of her.
[05:32] >> Let me play you another clip of Madison
[05:35] with Ben Shapiro.
[05:36] >> How do I get from barely being able to
[05:38] pay my bills to being in a mansion?
[05:40] >> I've been grown. I PAY MY BILLS. MY
[05:42] BILLS ARE PAID. Struggling is a normal
[05:43] part of being 24 years old. Okay, I was
[05:45] 24 years old and I struggled when I was
[05:47] 24 years old.
[05:48] >> Especially when you get married cuz it's
[05:49] like, oh my goodness, I'm learning how
[05:50] to be married. I have a business myself.
[05:52] So, it's like we're both just like
[05:54] taking risks constantly.
[05:56] >> Telly ho.
[05:58] >> Being young means being uncomfortable.
[06:00] That's also why you can afford to to
[06:02] take some more risks is because when
[06:03] it's just the two of you and you're just
[06:04] and you don't have kids yet, then you
[06:06] can take more career risks. The biggest
[06:07] thing to to take away is, you know, good
[06:09] sound financial decision-making. see how
[06:11] you can get from point A to point B. And
[06:12] just recognize that this is normal. It's
[06:14] totally normal. There's nothing
[06:15] unnatural about feeling financially
[06:17] uneasy when you're young. There's
[06:18] nothing sort of terrible about you.
[06:20] There's never been a system in human
[06:21] history where 24-year-olds felt
[06:22] economically comfortable. [laughter]
[06:24] There is no system where that exists.
[06:25] >> I think as well, it's very encouraging
[06:27] to hear that it takes time. One thing
[06:30] that my generation has been lied to
[06:32] about specifically is just that
[06:34] >> it's instantaneous.
[06:34] >> It's instantaneous. I could say so many
[06:37] things about this because I disagree,
[06:39] but we'll move on with the actual
[06:41] subject of this video. Am I crazy or is
[06:43] she like Brett Cooper? Seriously, I
[06:46] don't mean to offend anybody, but I
[06:47] think that that's the reason she was
[06:49] chosen for this role. Brett is Gen Z,
[06:51] wavy hair, very bubbly personality,
[06:53] talking fast. I see the similarity,
[06:55] which makes the whole thing even
[06:57] creepier. They know Brett and Candace
[06:59] are good friends. I know that Brett
[07:01] attended Candace's baby's christening.
[07:03] Not sure if she was she was christening
[07:04] the baby, but she was there. Either way,
[07:06] this whole thing is just so creepy and
[07:09] it stinks of Ben Shapiro's pettiness.
[07:11] Mel the village crazy lady tweeted. So,
[07:13] the Daily Wire is going to relaunch
[07:15] Candace's podcast, the the one that they
[07:17] still own the rights to, but in place of
[07:19] Candace, they're going to have a Pick Me
[07:21] intern who will simply recap Candace's
[07:24] latest show and make fun of it. Do you
[07:26] understand how sad and pathetic you have
[07:28] to be as a media company to lose your
[07:30] most popular host? And instead of simply
[07:32] reflecting on that and working to
[07:34] produce better content, you take the sad
[07:36] psycho ex-boyfriend route and just
[07:39] [clears throat] draft off her wake
[07:41] instead. Like, what's next? You losers
[07:43] going to key her daily wire anniversary
[07:45] into the driver's side door of her car.
[07:47] What the actual [ __ ] Who does crazy
[07:49] [ __ ] like this? And someone commented,
[07:51] "Tell me the Daily Wire is on life
[07:53] support without telling me the Daily
[07:54] Wire is on life support." Bleeding money
[07:57] or not, I'm sure this show will have
[07:59] views. Candace has enough haters to keep
[08:01] this type of content going. It's the
[08:03] same strategy that Tim Kittyool took on.
[08:05] He was complaining about Candace's
[08:07] podcast stealing his views, so he
[08:08] decided to scream the loudest about what
[08:10] an awful human she was, crowned himself
[08:13] the king of her haters, and therefore
[08:15] gained more clout. He joined the haters
[08:17] because he couldn't keep the fans
[08:18] interested. And Daily Wire is doing the
[08:20] same thing. They saw all those YouTubers
[08:22] doing exactly this, reviewing Candace's
[08:25] content and ridiculing it. So they took
[08:27] the recipe and amplified it with
[08:29] pettiness. Candy said that they fired
[08:31] her and never left her alone after that.
[08:34] They kept harassing her, trying to make
[08:36] sure she will lose money, she won't get
[08:37] another job. He was yelling awful things
[08:39] about her as recently as last month from
[08:41] the Afest stage. Take a listen. Candace
[08:43] describes it herself.
[08:44] >> First, I should say I had did have a
[08:47] little bit of sympathy over this break.
[08:49] I I would like to apologize to the
[08:50] [ __ ] horse. The [ __ ] horse never
[08:51] deserved the fu. There's nothing wrong
[08:53] with being a [ __ ] horse. And uh yeah,
[08:55] I was a little fired up and I attacked a
[08:58] small horse that probably did nothing
[09:00] wrong if I'm being honest. Now, more
[09:01] broadly speaking, the reason I had sort
[09:04] of snapped at the end of last year is
[09:05] that it has been a very long road as and
[09:08] I showed you an example of of me just
[09:11] trying to be fired like a normal person.
[09:14] Just so you guys know, in a normal
[09:15] world, your employer, if they fire you,
[09:18] that should be the last you hear of
[09:19] them. should not then have them follow
[09:22] you to events, calling people to try to
[09:25] get you canled from speaking events,
[09:27] putting pressure on people, loss, you
[09:29] that's actually toxic. And when I said
[09:32] to people that it was getting to a point
[09:33] where I felt like I was being stalked by
[09:36] them, I said this like privately. I
[09:38] said, I genuinely feel like when you
[09:39] break up with someone and you have a
[09:41] crazy ex, that was how it felt like
[09:44] being fired from the Daily Wire. Except
[09:45] in this circumstance, the ex broke up
[09:47] with you, but then I I guess like maybe
[09:48] changed their mind or just didn't want
[09:49] to see you move on and be happy or
[09:51] successful. There was an element of this
[09:53] that felt and I and I truly am not
[09:55] trying to be dramatic here. It felt like
[09:57] a crazy exalker. Like if I can't have
[09:59] you, nobody can have you. You know, so
[10:02] to connect this point to build this
[10:04] coralary for you guys, that was how I
[10:06] felt. That was what I was expressing to
[10:08] you at the end of last year that I was
[10:10] done with it, right? I was like, I'm
[10:11] leaving Daily Wire in 2025 come hell or
[10:14] high water. Well,
[10:15] >> well, Daily Wire wasn't going to leave
[10:17] her. There was this comment I have to
[10:19] share here. Daily Wire's Candace
[10:21] Necromancy with the Pick Me Intern is
[10:24] peak Charlie Kirk Afest tent vibes.
[10:28] Yep. Many are asking the question
[10:29] whether Daily Wire is doing something
[10:31] illegal. The answer is they can probably
[10:33] do this because they own Candace's old
[10:36] show and social media channels. So,
[10:38] they're allowed to keep using those
[10:39] platforms, change the host, even build a
[10:41] new show on top of what she created. And
[10:44] as nasty as it feels, mocking and
[10:46] recreating to Candace's new content is
[10:48] usually protected speech. Satire and
[10:51] criticism are covered as long as they're
[10:53] not lying about her or threatening her.
[10:56] So, is it illegal? Probably not. Is it
[10:58] petty and morally gross? Yes, very.
[11:01] Anyway, I believe this whole thing is
[11:03] happening partially to steer attention
[11:04] away from the content of Candace's
[11:06] investigation because on her podcast,
[11:08] she finally revealed what we have been
[11:10] suspicious of here. that Erica Kirk was
[11:14] present at the Hampton's meeting shortly
[11:16] before Charlie's assassination. Candace
[11:18] claimed from the start that the meeting
[11:20] was supposed to be an intervention to
[11:22] force Charlie back onto pro- Little Huts
[11:25] Lands cause. She also said that BB the
[11:28] Little Hut Lands prime minister called
[11:30] Charlie, made him an offer to take TPUSA
[11:32] to the next level, backed him up with an
[11:34] insane amount of money. To which Charlie
[11:37] said no. Erica allegedly said to Candace
[11:39] that she was at that meeting and that
[11:41] this called happened, but BB never told
[11:43] Charlie anything about taking TPUSA to
[11:45] another level. By now, you can probably
[11:47] guess who was behind giving this
[11:49] information to Candice. The one and only
[11:51] Gossip Girl of TPUSA, Andrew Kvette.
[11:54] Somebody is lying here. And as shady as
[11:56] I think Andrew is, I don't think this
[11:58] time is him. Erica's strategy very often
[12:01] seems to be playing dumb. when she said
[12:03] nobody texted Charlie that they were
[12:05] going to kill him the day before he was
[12:07] actually killed and she said she had his
[12:09] phone then she pretended that she never
[12:12] went went through his messages other
[12:14] than on iMessage and that's why she
[12:16] didn't know he texted this oh stupid me
[12:19] I had no idea BS and I don't mean Ben
[12:22] Shapiro this time when I say BS so this
[12:24] time Erica is playing dumb again Candace
[12:26] said that Erica once Andrew was revealed
[12:29] as the source of this information she
[12:32] again started saying, "Oh, maybe this
[12:34] happened when I wasn't in the room, when
[12:37] I went to the toilet." I don't know. She
[12:39] pretended she just didn't hear it. Let's
[12:41] remind ourselves what she did here. In
[12:46] August, before all this happened, he had
[12:48] a event where he had some donors at and
[12:52] one of the first questions they asked
[12:54] was, "God forbid if something happens to
[12:57] you, like what what what would happen
[13:00] next to Turning Point?" And Charlie made
[13:02] a really interesting point. He said
[13:04] companies, you know, example Apple,
[13:09] Macintosh. He said they're founderled.
[13:14] He said, but what I have built is will
[13:17] one day if I'm not around be visionled
[13:20] and he had made mention at the end like,
[13:22] you know, Erica will do a great job
[13:24] running it.
[13:24] >> My skin crawls every time I watch this
[13:26] clip. She talks about this meeting as if
[13:28] it was a happy memory. Simultaneously
[13:31] saying one of the first questions donors
[13:33] asked was, "What if you die?" Charlie
[13:35] starts publicly questioning Little Hut
[13:38] first. He writes in a business group
[13:40] chat that it is time to leave that
[13:42] cause. And then the donors ask him, "Oh,
[13:44] what would happen if something happened
[13:46] to you?" Innocent question. Don't read
[13:48] too much into it. And then Erica, as
[13:50] usual, throws in self-praise because of
[13:53] course she is just so amazing. Charlie
[13:55] said Erica would do a great job running
[13:57] it. Ew. Ew. Anyway, let's see how
[14:00] Candace's words will be twisted in the
[14:03] new Daily Wire show. It's already
[14:04] happening even after the last podcast.
[14:06] Ex started saying, "Oh my god, it's
[14:08] crazy. She called Erica Kirk a robot.
[14:10] How could she? Forgetting that context
[14:12] is everything." This is what Candace
[14:14] actually said.
[14:14] >> Enough. Another confusing part of that
[14:17] Barry Weiss interview that we should
[14:19] discuss more. Everyone was making Tik
[14:21] Toks about the stop, just stop, but
[14:23] actually the most effed up part about
[14:25] that interview was CBS's decision to
[14:28] bring Hunter Kak to ask Erica a
[14:31] question. Again, who approved this? I
[14:34] want to know. I want to know who thought
[14:35] it up and who said, "Okay, yes, let's do
[14:37] it." Because everyone involved in that
[14:40] process is what I think we're fighting
[14:42] right now. I think this is this these
[14:44] are robots. There's no way that somebody
[14:47] comes up that comes up with that idea
[14:48] and then a team of people at CBS approve
[14:51] it again. They wanted to recreate the
[14:54] moment that Charlie died. But this time,
[14:57] this time his wife was going to survive
[14:58] it. Hunter Kak. Last time we all saw
[15:00] him, Charlie died. So the point people
[15:03] claimed to get from this was that
[15:04] Kenneth called Erica a robot. Not that
[15:06] she was throwing shade at people who
[15:08] brought Hunter Kak in front of Charlie's
[15:10] wife. He was one of the biggest haters
[15:12] of Charlie Kirk who asked him the very
[15:13] last question before the shot was fired.
[15:16] How can you disagree on that with
[15:17] Candace? But that's why I know that the
[15:19] new Daily Wire show with wannabe Brett
[15:21] Cooper will be doing exactly this,
[15:22] turning and twisting Candace's words to
[15:24] make her look bad. That's all we see
[15:26] happening now for months. People who
[15:28] don't watch her show see the snippets of
[15:30] it with mocking commentary and they make
[15:32] up their minds about her like like this.
[15:35] 2026 will be a long year. I'm telling
[15:37] you. But as usual, I want to know what
[15:39] you guys think. Do you think what Daily
[15:40] Wire is doing is a fair fair game or a
[15:43] move below the belt? Let me know in the
[15:44] comments. And if you enjoyed this
