Deep dives
Pro-Palestine Demonstrators at Met Gala
Pro-Palestine demonstrators targeted the Met Gala, highlighting a shift from universities to Hollywood celebrities, positioning the left's Frankenstein monster against them. Amid police allowing the defacement of a World War I memorial, the incident emphasized a clash of elites and protestors, suggesting an uprising against long-accepted elitism.
Controversial Book and Disastrous PR
Kristi Gnome's book tour faced more backlash, focusing on the controversy over killing animals and portraying encounters with world leaders in a book riddled with questionable content. Gnome's media appearances to justify her actions led to further embarrassment and scrutiny, ultimately damaging her political image and career prospects.
Handling Public Relations Crisis
Gnome's attempts to address the media backlash only exacerbated the situation, as her justifications and responses to criticism failed to resonate positively with the public. The relentless media exposure surrounding the book's problematic content and her defense strategies fueled ongoing scrutiny, leading to speculation about her political future and the effectiveness of her PR efforts.
Reality TV Show Alone vs. Alone Australia
The podcast episode discusses the comparison between the reality TV show Alone and its Australian counterpart, Alone Australia. While the original show features skilled survivalists left alone in the wilderness, the Australian version took a different approach, including contestants more focused on ticking PC boxes rather than possessing survival skills. Examples from the Australian version showcase contestants struggling with basic survival tasks, such as one person claiming indigenous ties but tapping out after a day and another mistaking a toxic millipede for food. The episode highlights the unintentional comedic nature of Alone Australia due to the mismatch between contestant expectations and actual performance.
The Wokeness in Star Wars Franchise
The podcast delves into the issue of wokeness in the Star Wars franchise, critiquing its incorporation of left-wing ideologies and LGBTQ representation. The episode mentions a new animated series introducing a non-binary Jedi character, reflecting a trend of Disney promoting diversity in its content. However, audience reception to such additions has been mixed, with a poll showing a majority of adults preferring Disney to return to wholesome programming and empower parents in deciding when children learn about sexuality. The episode also questions the enduring appeal of Star Wars given its decline in quality over the years, exacerbated by overtly woke messaging that often alienates fans.
Today on the Matt Walsh Show, pro-Palestine demonstrators descended on the Met Gala yesterday. First they targeted universities and now Hollywood celebrities. The Left's own Frankenstein monster has officially turned against them. And demonstrators also defaced a World War One memorial. Police allowed that to happen because they were too busy protecting the rich celebrities. Plus, Kristi Noem's disastrous book tour continues. But why? And I don't often make TV show recommendations, but a new reality show out of Australia is unintentionally the funniest thing on TV right now. Finally, Star Wars has introduced another non-binary character. That brings up an important question: why is anyone still watching anything related to Star Wars?
