There are a lot of things that you could be upset about right now.
Rising food costs for one, the housing crisis, attacks on trans rights and
reproductive rights, of course, a lack of affordable health care in this country.
But podcaster, Tim Pool isn't upset about any of those reasons.
No, no, no, he's upset because he can't sexually harass women in the workplace.
>> If you go to work and you're a dude, and you walk up to another dude and
you go, whoa, Ricky, you're working out man.
You're looking good.
That's a nice suit.
What is that made of, velour?
I don't know, is that a thing?
Whatever, a silk silk robe?
My point is this, if you walk up to a guy and you're a guy and you go, whoa,
bro, looking good man.
You're working out, you lost weight?
Wow, great suit by the way.
Nobody cares.
Nobody bats an eye.
Now, imagine the same thing.
You're a guy and you're walking, Diane, you're looking good.
You're working out, that's a nice dress.
You're getting written up.
Imagine if you walk up to a guy and you put his hand on his shoulder and say,
you really did a good job out there man.
No one cares.
You do it to a woman, maybe not, but
you have the potential to be getting written up.
They'll say, hey, look, you touched her, she didn't like it.
We're warning you not to do it again.
You'll be like, I put my hand on her shoulder and said good job.
You can't be touching employees like this.
>> Okay, I have thoughts, but
let me just get the serious stuff out of the way first.
The standard for
what's considered sexual harassment in the workplace is exceptionally high.
It has to be severe and pervasive, and touching your coworker's
shoulder would definitely not reach that standard, okay.
Serious stuff out of the way.
Even Tim Pool has to be aware of the completely different tone he adopted in
his hypothetical compliments.
Cuz he's talking about the guy and he's like, whoa, Ricky, bro,
you're looking great.
You've been hitting the gym?
But then when he turns to compliment this hypothetical,
theoretical woman Diane, he's like, whoa, Diane, I love that dress.
He has to know that even in this situation he invented,
he sounds creepy when he's trying to compliment the woman.
[LAUGH] >> Yeah, before I get to the main point,
I wanna build on what you're saying about him.
So in his own hypothetical, he said you touched the woman and
then after telling her in the creepy way, you look really good, right?
And then he goes and touches the shoulder, and then HR pulls him in.
This is not our hypothetical, you can rewind the tape, it's his hypothetical.
And says, she didn't like it.
Yeah, that's called unwanted touching.
So doesn't context matter?
So, these guys pretend as if you don't talk to
different people in different ways.
So for example, when I'm with my guy friends, do I curse?
Hell yeah, I curse a lot, okay?
When I go to see my mom, I'm not like, hey mom, how the are you?
[LAUGH] >> [LAUGH]
>> So wouldn't it matter if you were
hitting on the woman or not hitting on the woman, hitting on the guy or
not hitting on the guy.
By the way, if it turns out, you thought the guy had a nice suit, but you're not
gonna ask him out and you're like, hey, Vinny, nice suit, you look really good.
Have you been working out?
Let's go get some red lobster, I'm gonna get some cheesy biscuits and
afterwards you never know what we do.
You know what I'm saying?
Well then, yeah, that would be sexual harassment,
doesn't matter that you did to a guy.
It is so funny, but none of that is as good as the silk robe.
Did you notice that?
He caught himself when he was like, nice velour suit?
That's okay.
He's live, he doesn't have a prompter and he's like, whatever, right?
That's, and he's like, or a silk robe and then it got awkward and he moved on.
Why would he be wearing a silk robe at work, and
then you look at your like, Vinny nice silk robe.
Now, wait a minute.
That is beginning to be sexual harassment [LAUGH]
>> Yeah, that's a lot.
It's towing the live for sure.
I don't know when this hypothetical where Tim Pool's working that
some guys just walking in and maybe only a silk [LAUGH].
>> And then, but and Tim's isn't like whoa, nice job anywhere.
You've been working out.
How open is that silk rope?
>> [LAUGH] My God, okay.
But that's not the only thing that Tim Pool had to say about sexual harassment.
So let's keep watching.
>> Look you go watch a football game and a guy.
The guys in sports give each other firm open palm slap on the bottoms,
too often for my comfort.
I don't quite understand, but they do it.
Whatever, I guess.
The point is this, could you imagine a coed football team and a guy walks up and
just smack some woman's ass?
You're gonna get in trouble for that.
So that's an interesting point.
>> That's an interesting point [LAUGH], he says.
I gotta point out Tim saying that the NFL players slapping each other's butts, not
Tim's butt, slapping each other's butts makes him uncomfortable just as a viewer.
It's such a massive cell phone.
And I got more, but before we get too far removed
from the slapping butt's comment check [LAUGH].
>> Interesting point, he says to himself about his own point.
And it made me wonder, is it Tim, is it?
Because it seems to make the opposite point if I can follow
whatever it's called logic in on that program, right?
So he's like it really makes me uncomfortable, but
they should let guys do it, but they shouldn't let women do it.
Wait, that's a double standard.
The thing I was just complaining about.
Interesting point.
>> Very interesting point.
But, to sort of go against Tim Pool's very interesting point as he described it,
men can sexually harass other men in the workplace and
they don't have to be gay to do it.
There's Supreme Court precedent that states that, and
I could spend some time here explaining the differences between welcomed and
unwelcomed contact as it applies to sexual harassment law.
But why should I do that when Tim clearly does not care?
Okay, just look at this tweet from Tim Pool and
tell me that you think he cares about sexual harassment.
If sex work is work,
then can a boss require women to suck his d as a job requirement?
This is not someone who's very concerned about the sexualization of women in
the workplace.
He doesn't care at all, and he claims that, that's a joke, whatever.
It's a joke at the expense of a group of people that Tim is not a part of punching
down anyway.
But as long as we're punching,
I think this is a perfect time to bring back this classic
clip of Tim Pool lamenting his struggles with women.
>> It's crazy that I'm about to be 34 and I have no family,
because my dad had two kids by the time he was 27 and I'm like, man!
You know what the problem is though?
It's definitely not me.
I think it's everybody else.
[LAUGH].
>> Tim, it's definitely you.
>> I had never seen that clip.
My God, this entire show was worth it on that clip alone.
>> [LAUGH].
>> Who says that?
I would say that is a massive and obvious joke, right?
But he's 100% serious.
He's like, no, I know, look, I can't get laid, but it's definitely not.
[LAUGH].
It's not only, it's not me that's already hilarious.
It's everyone else.
[LAUGH].
>> I can't believe you haven't seen that clip, it's like two years old now, but
it's my favorite thing I've ever seen in my life.
[LAUGH].
>> You see, when I was growing up, and I wanted to get girls and I couldn't,
I didn't know, it turns out, that was everybody else's fault, okay.
And this is gonna be the latest right wing conspiracy theory.
They're like, they stole the election and all the doctors who got together in
a global conspiracy to say that the vaccine works when it obviously doesn't.
And then all the women in the world got together and
pretended that Tim Pool was not attractive when he clearly is, okay, right?
Tim that's probably it right there.
You nailed it again.
So, but I will give tim some ironic credit.
I think that he's more authentic than a guy like Tucker Carlson.
And what I mean by that is when Tucker is doing a show,
it's almost purely trolling his own audience.
Now, he's not trolling them to make fun of them, he's a pretty smart guy.
He does in the beginning, he didn't know how they thought at all.
And then remember, he used to show on MSNBC and CNN, and
he used to wear a bow tie and he never said any of these kooky things.
He would say very standard mainstream media stuff like, tax cuts for the rich,
blah, blah, blah, blah.
He eventually, and you saw him and we documented here on the show,
how Tucker Carlson figured out who his audience was.
And how they would believe anything, how they were the world's biggest suckers, and
how he could take advantage and
then eventually got to, the way to stay healthy is laser in your crotch.
You remember that video, right?
But I think Tim actually believes these things.
Tucker has a giant belly laugh after the show.
Can you believe what we did today, Tim goes home and thinks I nailed it.
Yeah, okay.
>> I like that the credit you're giving to Tim is that he is
as stupid as his audience [LAUGH].
That's great.
>> You know what fair show in America.
Don't say, I never gave the guy any credit, okay?
>> Fair show in America and I really think if Tim's problems with
women are probably all boiled down to the point that he has no Riz.
And do you know what rizz is?
>> No, I don't, but I can't wait to find out.
>> I want you to just try to guess.
What do you think that rizz is?
>> No, all of my guesses will be far too dirty.
So I'm not going to guess.
Riz, you know what?
Alright, anyway, go ahead.
>> [LAUGH] Rizz is short for charisma.
So, usually it's used in a context like, this guy's got no rizz, he can't
get women or this guy's got unfettered rizz, he can get all the women he wants.
So maybe that's Tim's problem.
>> Interesting, now I know, okay.
I didn't know I had rizz, apparently I do.
[LAUGH].
And by the way, if you think I don't, it's not my fault.
It's your fault [LAUGH].
>> It's everybody else [LAUGH].
>> By the way, all these guys, you remember Jimmy Dore left here and
he was attacking us doing like 1000 different crazy lies about us.
Before it even came out that he was doing sexual harassment earlier, right?
He would complain in his videos, he's like,
young Turks became a real business and they even have HR.
Yeah, you have HR so that guys like you don't sexually harass people,
that's why you have HR.
Yeah, can you believe they're not even letting people sexually harass
people at TYT.
What the hell man.
>> [LAUGH] Not that not that different from the Tim Pool video.
Also just want to end by saying,
these conservatives are always complaining about, this woke racial training or
these woke sexual harassment trainings in the workplace.
They exist so that the company doesn't get sued.
The company doesn't really actually care about promoting these woke idea.
They don't want to get sued and they have to have these programs in place so
that the burden of proof can be shifted away from them in a potential lawsuit,
especially under title seven.
Still get a little bit lawyer, there.
>> That's definitely true.
But also if you're a good guy company, if such things exist and
we like to think we are.
You also don't want creeps coming around and
touching women when they specifically don't want to be touched.
And then, going like, you look good baby, you're like God and
everybody knows I'm the guy.
But if you don't think I'm the guy, it's your fault.
No, no, I don't want that happening here.
That's crazy.
So, but that thought doesn't even occur to them, of course everybody wants that.
They're just pretending they don't want it.
No, we don't.
Damn you're not getting it.
But I will end on this ray.
You know who's got rizz?
>> Who?
>> The guy in the silk robe.
>> [LAUGH] got rizz?
>> You show up to work in a silk robe, you're littered with rizz.
>> Just drenched the rizz, absolutely [LAUGH].
>> [LAUGH] Especially if Tim's around.
[LAUGH].
[SOUND].
[LAUGH].
Apparently we had fun.
You know what?
We're an educational show.
Now, you learned, I learned.
Some of you might have already known, but some of you learned along with me.
Now, you know what rizz is, okay?
And that Tim Pool has none of it, okay.
Alright, that's your public service announcement for the day.
