There is something to be said for a man with that much conviction lol. I'm glad he did it and it may help him attract some more younger viewers that have not heard of him before. Tom is a great collaboration for Ben to do.

The troll is strong with them.

Thanks Angita! :D

Agree 100% Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I'd like to start doing more Ben Shapiro content. Did you watch for Tom or for Ben?

Hmm don't think I've seen that one. That TV setup was a staple of early 90's television programming. It's beautiful in it's retro-ness.

Ma-Ma-Max Headroom. Hah!

Oh yeah! I think I saw that one. It was hilarious in it's awkwardness lol.

I agree. I believe both Ben and Tom have done overall a positive thing with the sharing of their message and values and while they may not jive with every person in the world I think that most good and level headed people will understand it and see that they are not a threat to your way of life.

Yep

YES! that's what I was trying to convey but you said it much better.

@@LouThunderBomb Happy to help ❤️ I love watching you guys thanks for the reaction!

@@Carissa11-18 Thanks Carissa, always nice to hear someone enjoys what we do, we get way more complaints than compliments lol

I noticed that too lol. He talks a mile a minute like the guy from the old micro machines commercials.

@@LouThunderBombsaid like someone who knew who the Thundercats were.

@@chrisf2636I love late 80's/early 90's cartoons :D

That's right, it was a pretty famous scene in cinema. First thing I thought of was the video game Smash TV. Not sure why though lol.

Now in technicolor! :D

Oh man, I saw a little of the interview he did with Tom after this video and Ben is very underrated for his comedic ability.

Thanks from all of us

Like Dr. Evil!

Reau is to young to remember those days and had limited TV access, I can't reference any old shows with him pre 2000's lol

SAME!

That's an interesting take.

Thanks Finster! I want to start doing more content based on Ben, Candace, Crowder and Charlie Kirk and try to introduce them to some of my friends like @Bklyn_reau in a way that won't scare them or their viewers off. While I wouldn't classify myself as conservative I do share a lot of the traditional values they speak about regularly and try and bridge the divide between the people that hear about them from outside sources in a negative light and those that follow them but might scare people away with how direct they can be.

@@LouThunderBomb That would be great! And I get you on trying to show a balanced viewpoint so as to enlighten people without scaring them away with facts. I'm not familiar with you guys or your usual audience, but erring on the side of caution is always the best way to go. If you showed some of Charlie Kirk's videos where he is trying to get woke leftist college idiots to defend their viewpoint (they never can; "a woman is someone who identifies as a woman" is their staple circular definition of a woman, when he asks, and "a fetus isn't a person, it's just a clump of cells," as examples), your audience might think he's a pretentious right-wing douche the same way those dumbass college sheep do. But I wish you luck in finding any content of his or even Candace's where they aren't going at some complete idiot hard and fast. Although, to be honest, as I said, usually they ARE dealing with complete and utter imbeciles who simply repeat what they've heard and/or been told, like good little robots following the other lemmings off the edge of the cliff, rather than taking the time to research anything or varying viewpoints in order to think for themselves, and form their own opinion in order to explain their viewpoint in their own words and have an honest and non-hostile discussion. But then again, even when dealing with these hostile cry-bullies, Charlie (and even Candace) are always congenial, and polite, which only causes these nut-jobs to become more hostile and walk away cursing them out and calling them names. That's always their plan B once their argument is torn to shreds due to lack of evidence or even an iota of truth. Their opinions are always based on "their truth" or their feelings. And, as you know, facts don't care about your feelings.

You and me both.

I think the first time it was used in any kind of video was probably Max Headroom.

I remember those displays and TV repair stores...I'm old!

@@NathanMN I don't remember that show :(

lol Ben actually looks like a badass in the sweater.

Thank you Lisa. There have certainly been many different interpretations of what the TV's signify and all of them make sense. True sign of a great video.

I dig it!

Yeah it sticks in my head as a late 80's early 90's thing. I remember seeing it a lot as a kid but too long ago for me to pinpoint.

Thank you. We appreciate you watching and leaving a comment.

Yes, I still can’t believe that let them attack a fellow guest and tried to say how calm they were.

I think I remember that interview. Ben was threatened but I didn't know he was assaulted.

@@mandarinfox1813 I have to rewatch that video, I remember them threatening Ben but I don't remember Ben getting assaulted.

@@LouThunderBomb Watch how he’s handled! Grabbed Ben by the neck then Threatened to have him taken out in an ambulance.

I've seen it but I'm fairly certain Reau and Swimmy haven't. I think that will make for a great video reaction! Thanks for the idea :D

Dang, Tom crosses all borders :D

Yes that's what I was trying to convey, that and though while his rap songs do have a strong message, they are still very catchy.

I remember those days. That type of TV setup was used a lot in the 90's for movies and shows as well, usually in some post apocalyptic land scape. The all time classic Johnny Nemonic with Keanu Reeves pops into my head when I think about it.

Ahh you mean the control room. I didn't think about it like that but it also makes sense as a deeper metaphor for control.

Thanks Kimberly!

Well if the political commentator gig ever dries up, I've got another avenue for him in show business lol

I can see that. I'm willing to bet that it has multiple meanings.

Ok that makes sense too, I remember those scenes in TV shows and movies. It's great that something that's just in a backdrop can be interpreted in multiple ways. Nova is a great director.

Is Dr. Dreidel copyrighted? Hmm (rubs chin)

♥

I just say Mom

@@NoCoverCharge OMG. 😂 🤣

Can't say I noticed that. I'll watch the original video back and see if I can make it out. Thank you for the kinds words, we really appreciate the positive feedback.

This...multiple TVs with the same image hint at control, influence, and brainwashing to an ideal. The government or big brother control what you are being fed through media which fits in perfect with the mob mentality the song song is addressing.

That's an interesting way of thinking about it. Makes sense.

♥

Does he have any ownership of it at all? I thought he started that company.

@@LouThunderBomb Minority owner, I believe.

@@steveperry3572 Ahh ok. I thought there was some skin in the game for him there. Thanks for correcting me.

@@LouThunderBombNo problem. The owner of the Daily Wire is like his crew. He’s a little goofy. His handle is Key god, because the Daily Wire now owns BentKey products, which makes movies. He had a round table discussion here a while back with Shapiro , Michael Knowles, Andrew Klavin, and Matt Walsh. In that conversation, the Key god was giving away a Mclaren on his Daily Wire KZfaq channel.

@@LouThunderBomb Not sure what his ownership % is, but he cofounded it with Jeremy Boreing, so I'd imagine he owns some part of it.

Well it is a reaction not a listening party lol. I never understand why people comment on reaction videos asking the reactors not to talk :/

@@LouThunderBomb how can you give an honest reaction when you miss every other word?
