What is Man in America Podcast?

Seth Holehouse is a TV personality, YouTuber, podcaster, and patriot who became a household name in 2020 after his video exposing election fraud was tweeted, shared, uploaded, and pinned by President Donald Trump — reaching hundreds of millions worldwide.

Titled The Plot to Steal America, the video was created with a mission to warn Americans about the communist threat to our nation—a mission that’s been at the forefront of Seth’s life for nearly two decades.

After 10 years behind the scenes at The Epoch Times, launching his own show was the logical next step. Since its debut, Seth’s show “Man in America” has garnered 1M+ viewers on a monthly basis as his commitment to bring hope to patriots and to fight communism and socialism grows daily. His guests have included Peter Navarro, Kash Patel, Senator Wendy Rogers, General Michael Flynn, and General Robert Spalding.

He is also a regular speaker at the “ReAwaken America Tour” alongside Eric Trump, Mike Lindell, Gen. Flynn.

Seth Holehouse:

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Man in America. I'm your host, Seth Holehouse. So the great Andrew Breitbart had a quote, which has always stuck with me, which is that culture sorry. Politics is downstream from culture. Okay?

Seth Holehouse:

So what does that mean? Politics is downstream from culture because there's a lot of people that are trying to change the country by attacking politically. Let's get our candidate in the office. Let's do this. Let's, you know, let's change this law.

Seth Holehouse:

And while those are good things, don't get me wrong, I also think that they're they're distracting us from the much bigger issues, which is changing culture and taking control of culture. And if you look at America and you look at the machines that create our culture, these machines have been built and hijacked by communists, right, you know, by wokeists, whatever you wanna call it, people that want to destroy America. And what we've also seen is that these culture making machines have turned their massive cannons on me, the white American, And they've made people in America ashamed to be white, ashamed of our, of our history, ashamed of our heritage, and we have to be fighting back against that. So my guest today is guy named AJ Rice. So he is actually the person in charge of a pretty important publishing company called Publius PR.

Seth Holehouse:

Right? So a lot of the the names household names that you're familiar with, you know, he's publishing their books and booking their shows and everything. But he's also an author himself, and he's got two great books when we're talking, more importantly, his more recent book, which is called The White Privilege Album. Now it's kind of a funny name, the White Privilege Album, but that one it's what got me interested in doing the interviews. It's like, I love stuff like this.

Seth Holehouse:

I love when people take the, you know, the cultural words you're not supposed to talk about and poke you poke it. Right? And you have fun with it. And that's exactly what he's doing is he's poking at and having fun with this whole idea that we should be ashamed of this right white privilege. And so, folks, I hope you're gonna enjoy this.

Seth Holehouse:

It's not really that offensive an interview. I guess if if you're, you know, some sort of, like, ultra liberal feminist, you know, what you kind of whatever that is, and and you hate these ideas, maybe you'll be offended. But if that's the case, you're probably not watching Man in America. So, folks, please enjoy this interview with AJ Rice. Look, if you've ever been frustrated with hearing loss, okay, hear.com is exactly where you need to go.

Speaker 2:

Brother Seth, great to be here. First time. Hope we have some fun here, brother.

Seth Holehouse:

I I think that we will. I have a thing that we will. I think we we've we've both got a pretty dry, sarcastic approach, and we find humor in a lot of the dark areas that we're forced to look at these days. So how about let let's start with give us a little bit of background of yourself, Publius, you know, some of your work to help set the stage for discussion today.

Speaker 2:

Well, I got into the media by helping a Republican congressman outside of Philadelphia win a special election. This was twenty years ago now. And I was working on Capitol Hill for a short period of time before I was plucked from the river like Moses by Laura Ingram to essentially, at the time, be just her assistant. She was doing a radio show. Most listened to female radio host in the country.

Speaker 2:

This is long before the Fox show. And, you know, I I went I basically started working there, and I went from being her assistant to being her executive producer in about nine months. And I then grew the show. We ended up with almost 400 stations. I was her executive producer, traveled the world with her.

Speaker 2:

She's still a friend. She's like my sister. She gave me a blurb for my first book. And then I I I got sort of shuffled over to the Monica Crowley show. Again, Monica and I hit it off.

Speaker 2:

And, these two women and I was her executive producer for a couple of years. These two women pretty much raised me, from a puppy, in the media. And, you know, I produced quite a bit of show shows. I produced shows like this one, mostly radio. But I was involved with some other things with Glenn Beck and John Solomon.

Speaker 2:

And for about a decade now, though, I've been doing this. And what I mean by this is I run Publius PR. That's my day job. And, you know, we have all different types of your favorites up there. At this point, we could I consider Publius the center of the MAGA cinematic universe.

Speaker 2:

You know, you'll recognize names and faces. We've worked with everyone from RFK junior to Donald Trump junior do their books, do the super PAC. We've worked on campaigns. We were working with Vivek last year, running surrogates for him. As you can see, some of our, clients have been to prison.

Speaker 2:

We we just got one out of prison recently. That would be Peter Navarro. But look. Everyone from Ben Carson to Newt Gingrich, and we look. We don't really use a purity test.

Speaker 2:

I guess there are some people that if they called, it wouldn't work out. But I'm not a big purity test guy. I think purity tests in history sort of fail us. I I think, history is not very kind on purity tests. And and, you know, at some point, you know, right around when Trump showed up, I I thought to myself, you know, I've been in and out on both.

Speaker 2:

I've look. I've produced shows. I've been a fill in host. I was writing columns. So I decided to put my own book together, mainly because it was one of the things that could set me apart from my competition, in the PR world, because no one wants a coach who doesn't play the game.

Speaker 2:

No one. And, you know, I've worked as a literary agent as well. It's one of the few things I hadn't done yet, sort of put myself through the pain that I was putting all of my clients through. Why not? Seemed like a novel idea.

Speaker 2:

So that, became The Woking Dead, which was my first book. The big hit, number one. Know, Ingram gave me a blurb. Pete Hegseth, judge Janine, a lot of Monica, chef Gruel, a lot of, a lot of my buddies there that are also my clients. And it taught me quite a bit.

Speaker 2:

And, you know, while I was promoting it, I started working on the current book, which is the white privilege album, which is basically a sequel to the Woking Dead. So I'm I'm creating and look. When I do this, it's sort of a multilevel marketing situation where, I have a message. I try to use humor to convey that message. But one sort of book leads to the other.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I grew up reading a lot of fiction that did this. So I figured I would try to set myself up at some point to be the, anti woke Harry Potter. So you never know if it'll if if I don't end up in the gulag, maybe there'll be a volume three. But but while I was doing the Woking Dead tour, it dawned on me that that wokeism, as I define it, and look, the target rich environment, there is no unified theory of wokeness. But if you get out in your blender, your KitchenAid, throw a little cancel culture in there, a little identity politics, and some political correctness, and there are you know, there's probably some other nasty ingredients too that, you know, that's what comes at is wokeism, is those things.

Speaker 2:

And if you look at it historically, it's just another name for cultural Marxism. And cultural Marxism has been infecting quite a bit. It's not new. It predates World War one. Been around a while here in The United States.

Speaker 2:

And we could get into the history of that. I I I would say that, you know, if there if there is a long march that is taking place and the economic Marxists knew they couldn't get it done by getting the getting the cat you know, hanging the capitalists by the rope they manufactured, I think the goal was to infect the institutions. And a hundred years ago, it was Broadway, early radio, silent picture industry, you know, public sector unions, Democrat Party, newspapers. Today, Netflix, the NBA, the mainstream media, academia, humanities department, you know, and obviously, the big kahuna, which is big tech. Right?

Speaker 2:

Big tech kinda acts as the force field for what some of these lunatics are trying to do to us. So, you know, you've got primary colors, get your Roy G. Bibb colors inside of wokeism. And with the white privilege album, I wanted to focus on the racial element of this. Now I grew up on the playgrounds of Philadelphia.

Speaker 2:

I'm not really afraid of this stuff. You know, most of my basketball team was black. When I, you know, when I was growing up, I wanted to be doctor j. You know, I didn't wanna be Larry Bird, although I respect Larry Legend. So I'm not, you know, a wilting violet.

Speaker 2:

I'll go right into your face. So, you know, I went through a lot of the sort of racial elements of how wokeism has been weaponized against the culture. Now I like to have fun. You know, Ingram taught me that. Our show was wild.

Speaker 2:

I became friends with Andrew Breitbart, in my twenties, And, you know, he became a fill in host on our network. He was filling in for Michael Savage and Jerry Doyle and Tammy Bruce at the time. And, you know, I do believe the American people, are more concerned with their culture than they are who's running for dog catcher in Des Moines. Maybe Kamala Harris soon, if all goes well. I will tell you that my job with the books is to use irreverent humor to illustrate truth.

Speaker 2:

And I got that from Limbaugh. You know, I was a huge fan. He and I had the same birthday. And and here's the thing. When you're talking about some of these books, I said that with an apology to the Beatles, if you know Pig Floyd's the wall, you'll notice that I, stole a little bit of ideas from that.

Speaker 2:

You know, that double LP the Beatles put out was just called the Beatles, but its nickname was the White Album. And there's been some there's been some some things over the years called the White Album. Some left wing journalists have written a few things. But the subtitle, bringing racial harmony to very fine people on both sides. Now, obviously, I'm a troll, troll master Flash, And I know, especially on Seth's show here, man in America, if I'm gonna be on here, I need to give a big shout out to the very fine people out there.

Speaker 2:

You know who you are. Okay? This was lifted, obviously, and kidnapped from Trump's Charlottesville speech, which really was the foundational hoax for the Trump is a racist lie that has been out there in the media. Now there's others, losers and suckers and IVF and project twenty twenty, and there's gonna be a bloodbath. There's plenty of these.

Speaker 2:

Right? But I just can't help myself but control the left a little bit, especially because this one has been debunked. And it hasn't been debunked by Seth or Rice. Been debunked by the left. It's been debunked by Bill Maher, by CBS News, Michael Rappaport.

Speaker 2:

There's and I put all this in the book, the debunking, and yet it's unbelievable. I didn't hear, I didn't hear Tampon Tim do it. But in the two debates with Trump and Biden and Trump and Kamala, the very fine people showed up in both of them. So, you know, this is beyond low information voters. I'm in DC.

Speaker 2:

I work as a publicist for a living. I could tell you someone and it's really no different than a crossfire hurricane. Somebody paid for some freaking K Street Lobbyist to tell them to continue to go back to these things. Right? It's all they've got.

Speaker 2:

It's all they've got. Make people think that Trump was talking about the very fine, you know, white supremacists. Right? I live in Virginia. I'm not that far from from Charlottesville.

Speaker 2:

They were trying to take down a statue of Robert E. Lee and his horse, Traveler. And although that became a flashpoint what the book's really about is that you and I knew they were never gonna stop tearing stuff down. They were never gonna stop with the civil war generals. They were never gonna stop with the confederacy.

Speaker 2:

You know, the dopey mayor gave Black Lives Matter in Antipa a permit to be there. Okay? There were permits given in, right, to all sides, all the very fine people. And there were legitimate people there from the University of Virginia, from the Virginia Historical Society that were there to protest what was going on. They didn't want it torn down.

Speaker 2:

They want it moved to Civil War Museum of Virginia. Right? Now I'm a Yankee. I'm from Philadelphia, as I'm sure you could hear. So my relatives wore navy uniforms in, the Civil War.

Speaker 2:

I don't have a particular love for what the Confederacy was trying to do. However, it's not about that. I'll tell you what it's about, and it's something I know you talk about all the time. It's about Western civilization. Because after Lee was gone, Grant was gonna go, And Andrew Jackson and Teddy Roosevelt and George Washington and Columbus and Churchill and Thatcher and so on.

Speaker 2:

Right? And Seth, the statue of Seth somewhere, it's coming down. So so they moved on. And it's because the left can't stand Western civilization. What is Western civilization?

Speaker 2:

Well, I define it as the Greco Roman Judeo Christian civilization. K? The four legs of the stool going back to antiquity. They hate it. They hate it because it's a winner.

Speaker 2:

That's why they hate it. The most successful civilization in Earth's history, not all civilizations are created equal. I'm sorry. You might not like that. It's just it's the same reason I can't play on the men's, Olympic basketball team.

Speaker 2:

It wouldn't let me this summer. It's not. You know, uncle Pat used to say it. They didn't like it. Not all cultures are created equal.

Speaker 2:

Pat Buchanan, that was one of his famous lines, and they're just not. They don't like our culture. They think it is a construct of white privilege, and it has to go. It has to go. So at the big level, I'm sort of kidnapping the language from them, using it back against them.

Speaker 2:

Because in the book, I'm defending Western civilization quite a bit. The book is 12 chapters and a set of table of contents. I call it the twelve months of privilege, where chapter one is January, chapter 12 is December, and I go through an entire calendar year defending Halloween, defending Thanksgiving, Columbus Day, which is coming up, Halloween you know, everything, Christmas, and I make fun of things at Kwanzaa and these other things. So and and and it's a wild ride. And it's probably, if you're a left wing cook, gonna trigger you a little bit because we talk about slavery.

Speaker 2:

We talk about Jackie Robinson. We talk about Nelson Mandela. We talk about Morgan Freeman history month, which I celebrate instead of Black History Month. I celebrate Morgan Freeman history month. Every it's February chapter two.

Speaker 2:

Everyone should do it. You know? And then beyond that, Seth, the second thing the book is about is the middle class. And like we have was talking to you before, what the economic Marxist can't get done, the cultural Marxist will will take over. They hate the middle class.

Speaker 2:

I don't care if Kamala, the Jamaican, Canadian, Indian, first this, first you know, I I don't care what she says that she's a member of. The left can't stand the middle class. No one with the policies that they put forth can love the middle class. Because as you know, they flood the zone with migrants, got unchecked. I mean, look.

Speaker 2:

Anyone that wants to put the Green New Deal on on a populace wants to crush them. Because as you know, any any place Marxism has thrived, it's always been some dump where they had a royal family or some autocratic regime. It could be the Ho Chi Minh variety, the Kim Il Sung variety, the the Malte Tung variety, the Castro boys, Hugo Chavez, you know, New York City. No. I'm joking.

Speaker 2:

You name it. Right? And that's what they want. That's what they want for months. They want us in our in the the Kamala and Tim bread lines waiting for our turkey on Thanksgiving to be handed out.

Speaker 2:

Oh, government feed us. Because, you know, they wanna make us all peasants, so they have to crush the middle class. It has to go. Absolutely has to go. And the third thing, which I think you'll appreciate, it has to go.

Speaker 2:

And look. Black Lives Matter told us, it was on their website right next to their, you know, the sonnets, the love sonnets they were writing for Hamas, right, is the nuclear family. The nuclear family has to go, not just because they're breeders and, you know, there are carbon footprints that don't offset DiCaprio's plane, but happy people have more children. They hate that. So the civilization lives on.

Speaker 2:

And look, wokeness, especially trickle down wokeness, is like trickle down misery. Right? So for all their talk of joy, joy this, enjoy that, the reality is they don't want joy. And if there's if you ever met a cultural Marxist or just come in contact with anyone that has lived under communism or national socialism, if there's one thing a Democrat party is going to do when when you meet them, it's going to be to suck joy from you. That's what they're here to do.

Speaker 2:

They want us deaf. They want us all, miserable, alone, childless. They'll import the cats from Springfield, Ohio so they don't get eaten, bring the cats over to us. We can all put Taylor Swift on, listen to Taylor Swift, and then we could be miserable together, Never to break free from the grievance, you know, committee that we're serving every day because we hate we we blame everything on white privilege, and we blame blame everything on toxic masculinity or the patriarchy or any of these other crazy things. And that's what they want.

Speaker 2:

They wanna reset us, reset our church, reset our family, reset our diet, reset our politics, our culture. And that is why, in the words of one of the great philosophers, what can be can become unburdened by what has been. That is why, Seth. Because although that sounds like diarrhea of the mound, it is a just stone cold Marx and Engels, greatly forward Marxist statement about, we know what's best for you. We're gonna undo all of this.

Speaker 2:

We'll bring Karl Marx into the church. We'll baptize him. We're gonna get rid of all these people that tell all the wrong jokes. You know? We'll use a social credit system to to judge all of you.

Speaker 2:

You all get your little report cards. You know? And the comedians will be in jail. The podcasters will be in jail. You know?

Speaker 2:

I mean, it's that's what they're after. So I my job is to is to is to mock the hell out of them. I mean, that's that's what I do in the book. You know? And I try to do it with my presentation.

Speaker 2:

But it is you know, some of it's gallows humor because it's deathly serious. But they really can't take being made fun of, so, you know, that's why all their comedians sound the same and why people like Gutfeld, quite frankly, are crushing the Jimmy's and the Stevens and the other schmucks that are on late night comedy.

Seth Holehouse:

So there's a lot to unpack there, but I I love just kinda throwing it back in their face. Right? And say you know, and this is also part of it too is, you know, I'm going through this process as a I think a lot of people are, especially with with the risk that our country's in right now. It's like, okay. What is America?

Seth Holehouse:

Like, you know, who am I, and what am I, and and what do I stand for? And, you know, I've when you know, a lot of times, you don't value something until it's under attack. And if you were to ask me, Seth, you know, say ten years ago, you ran, you know, Seth ten years ago, and you said, Seth, how proud are you to be white? I'd say, I mean, I'm not really that proud of it. I'm not don't really despise it.

Seth Holehouse:

I'm just a white guy. Right? I'm I'm the kind of the, you know, whatever. But now, you you know, at this day and age, it's like, I'm proud to be white, and and and I'm proud to say that. It's not a like, I'm not saying that I'm better than a black guy.

Seth Holehouse:

It's like if the black guy if he's proud to be black, good for you, man. Right? Because we gotta we gotta stand for something. Right? So, like, I was born and raised in Ohio.

Seth Holehouse:

So it's like, okay. I'm I have my my proud Ohio roots. And what's crazy, though, is that, like, you know, you could start any kind of club. You could have a Mexican, you know, a Mexican, you know, club for Mexicans. You can have a black club for the blacks.

Seth Holehouse:

But if you start a white club for the whites, oh, look out. Look out. Everything is turned against you. I mean, it it's such an obvious attack, actually.

Speaker 2:

We also we also don't and, obviously, the humanities people would say, well, that's because you're, you know, you have power and you're inside the construct intersectional construct of of white privilege. But, I mean, I would surmise that you don't wake up every day and say exactly what you said, though. You don't wake up and say, well, I'm white today there, Gary. Isn't it wonderful? Hi, Susie.

Speaker 2:

Would you like a gin and tonic? I mean, the reality is we don't sort of we don't conservatives, libertarians, we don't necessarily filter our entire existence through how much melanin we have in our skin, through the identity Benetton ad where they wanna put us all in their little freaking Crayola sixty four box and put labels on us and packages us us up. Right? They're obsessed with this stuff. But here's the thing.

Speaker 2:

We we don't have a multicultural country. We have one culture here. It's Western culture. I outlined some of that a minute ago. But we are a multiethnic country.

Speaker 2:

And you can come here and participate in Western civ, the middle class, the nuclear family. Doesn't matter what color you are, if you do it legally, the great experiment is for you. You can come here and participate in it. And I think a lot of groups of people are sick of sort of being filtered through these wacky prisms of the grievance groups, the identity politics, the social justice warrior nonsense, because you could see it sort of happening nationwide. Look.

Speaker 2:

Donald Trump has made the Republican Party more working class, more multiethnic. And now when you tell me you deserve something because of your skin color or your gender, You have ovaries. You wanna run for president. You have ovaries, but you never used them. You never used them, Kamala.

Speaker 2:

You never used them. She couldn't find a husband till she was 50 years old. That sounds like a woman that I wanna be married to. Let me tell you. You know, there's an old joke about United States being a female.

Speaker 2:

Well, never had a female president, so United States must be a straight woman because they don't wanna be married to Hillary. They don't wanna be married to Geraldine Peraro. They don't wanna be married even to Sarah Palin. God bless her. And I don't know about Kamala, but we'll see.

Speaker 2:

But, you know, that's the thing is that Trump, in particular, has brought all these different groups together moving towards him. She is underwater in polling with Muslims in Michigan, with Jews in Pennsylvania, with the Latins in in Nevada and Arizona. I mean, you've got these counties along the Rio Grande Valley there between Texas and Mexico that Trump is winning, and they're not exactly filled with Scandinavians. And it's because it it this great experiment, which we're all a part of, is bigger than all of this. They try to put us in these in these goofy boxes.

Speaker 2:

Right? The nuclear family is not white privilege any more than the middle class is. And but they try their damnedest to do this. And, you know, you've got goofy I mean, I was watching a video of goofy Ben Stiller who made a movie putting Robert Downey junior in blackface. Tropic Thunder, brilliant movie, probably couldn't get made, tomorrow, saying that the reason he he's he's endorsed Kamala is because of her gender and her skin color, and she's Indian, and she can make you know, she can she can can make a samosa, and she can I mean, it's just it's just it's just nuts?

Speaker 2:

It's nuts. Right? She likes chickpeas. You know, I'm a vote for I mean, it's just it's crazy. But, I mean, this is why, obviously, you know, we're not following Ben Stiller into any type of serious battle, to save the country.

Speaker 2:

But and look. They have power, but we need to make fun of them. You know? Let the best joke win. But they they are obsessed with identity, and you have to sort of poke fun at it.

Speaker 2:

Now shows like this, people like my clients, get hunted. If you step out of line, like Chappelle did, make a pun of trans people, And Chappelle's by no means Dave Chappelle the comedian. He's a black guy, Democrat from Washington DC, not exactly, you know, Ben Carson or Thomas Sowell. But if you tell him he can't say something, and he's being honest, and he is very intellectually honest, he's gonna say it, and he's gonna go after he's gonna he's gonna not shut up about it. Ricky Gervais, same thing.

Speaker 2:

Right? He's coming for So Chris Rock told a joke. He got slapped. So that was the fourth wall coming down with the audience. Will Smith became a heckler.

Speaker 2:

You know? He went up and physically assaulted someone because of a joke. Now someone jumped on stage with a knife, a gun, actually. It wasn't fake, but somebody attacked Dave Chappelle at the Hollywood Bowl for making trans jokes. Right?

Speaker 2:

And that's totalitarianism. That's what that is. Now granted, you go all the way back to Shakespeare's theater, people were throwing fruit and vegetables at people on the stage. I mean, it it happens. There's always gonna be heckler.

Speaker 2:

Always. And, but when it comes to wokeism, if they can't get you digitally by de deplatforming, demonetizing, shadow banning, they may come after you physically, ladies and gentlemen. And it's not just Chappell. Someone jumped on stage and attacked Lee Zeldin. Look what happened to Salman Rushdie.

Speaker 2:

Okay? Attacked thirty years later for a book that was written making fun of Islam, making fun of the prophet Muhammad. And look, they give out people's names, addresses Brett Kavanaugh's name and address, Tucker Carlson's name and address, Rand Paul's neighbor broke his ribs. Bernie Sanders lunatic comes to, the baseball game and shoots Steve Scalise. So look.

Speaker 2:

They get violent. The left gets violent when you, you know, mock them. It's totalitarianism. There's no difference between anything I just listed and the Taliban shooting those freaking Stinger missiles at those Buddhist statues. It is a woke intifada.

Speaker 2:

And, you know, go through and the and the creme de la creme, to top it all off, I'll give you all those examples where it comes to two big ones. Since Lincoln, we've had Lincoln shot, Garfield shot, McKinley shot, Teddy Roosevelt shot. Kennedy shot. Reagan shot. Trump shot.

Speaker 2:

Only one of those people is a Democrat, the Catholic one. The Catholic one whose brother was also shot and whose nephew was running for president that wasn't given Secret Service protection for some reason until president Trump was shot. So look. You know, I don't think you need to be Joan or Tucker or Bannon or or Seth or, you know, Confucius or Aristotle to to to say yourself, wow. There are some opinions out there that you're that you're not allowed to have.

Speaker 2:

And if you try to share them publicly, you know, the digital brown shirts may come after you online, or there's a physical element to it. Because, look, we've had, what, four phony indictments, two phony peach impeachments, and two assassins on the on the grassy knoll, one that got a shot off and one that didn't. I mean, we are living in time in strange times here, ladies and gentlemen. And, that's why you have to watch shows like this. You have to.

Speaker 2:

And that's why I'm proud of my books, but what we do at Publius PR inserting the wrong kinds of opinions into the public consciousness, with me at the center of it acting sort of as the sort of train conductor. You know, I love it. I love it because I think we are slowly becoming the majority. And I think we are waking people up. Right?

Speaker 2:

Because you know? And we we could get into how and and all the other ways wokeism touches things, DI and ESG and so on, in sports and things. But I think, you know, if you talk about America, you tell American stories, and, you could change some people. I mean, I do it in the in this book, the white privilege album. I I talk a lot about sports.

Speaker 2:

Michael Jordan, Jim Brown, Aaron Judge, they all make appearances. Jackie Robinson does as well. And, you know, I talk about as much as I am trolling people about bringing racial harmony, there are moments in the book where that happens, and I'm not being, as much a wise ass as I look right now.

Seth Holehouse:

I think I think sometimes it's fun it's good to be a wise ass because, you know, we have to be able to laugh at this stuff. And that's and and that's the, I I the reality of it. Right? If you pull back the curtain, right, and you you look at what's really going on, you know, it's like, I'll I'll put my tinfoil hat on, but what I see is a massive global conspiracy to eradicate Western civilization and to eradicate the people and the races that stand for the values of Western civilization. And so, like, it's it's serious.

Seth Holehouse:

It's not just, hey. We're we're at war with this country, and, you know, they've been, you know, kinda screwing up our food supplies, and they've been poisoning our well. I mean, it's like, okay. That's one thing. Like, this is something much bigger that you know, I think I think, ultimately, it's not in in my kind of understanding, it's not that they're after just the white people or after the wet the western civilization.

Seth Holehouse:

It it's just that we're the strong ones that hold things together on this side of the earth. And so once that once they get rid of all of us, then they're coming for the the blacks and the the the gays and the Mexicans and, you know, the then then it's them. I mean, because it you know, look at the world. If if their plans are carried out properly, say, thirty years from now, there's a billion people left on Earth. You know, most of them are are, you know, kind of in prisons or in gulags working or something, and this small group of elites that are basically owning and running the world.

Seth Holehouse:

But and while it seems like, okay, their only goal is to get rid of Western civilization and get rid of, you know, get rid of white people, it's like, no. Like, we're just we're just the first ones in the way. Right? And then once they get rid of us, then they're coming for the same group of people that help them get rid of us and thinking that, oh, if if we just can if we can just tear down the white patriarchy. Right?

Seth Holehouse:

If we can just do that, we're gonna have utopia. America's gonna be completely utopia until you feel the warm, you know, barrel of a gun, you know, singeing the hair in the back of your head. It's just it's just how it works.

Speaker 2:

Right. Sure. And it's sometimes more nuanced. They are trying to get into things like termites, tapeworms. It's not just about, for them, the big victory.

Speaker 2:

It's about breaking us. And it's intimately about removing sources of inspiration. Now Christianity and Judaism have been attacked for a long time. I'm not so much talking about that. That's a whole another book.

Speaker 2:

But George Washington has to go. I because it inspires too many people. Mark Twain has to go. Shakespeare has to go. Hemingway.

Speaker 2:

Mozart. They have to go because Michael Jordan, know, Babe Ruth. They have to go. You cannot have generations of people looking at role models of the West, whether it's, you know, Constantine or, you know, Winston Churchill. I mean, I've gotta think that the these are inspirational things.

Speaker 2:

And they see Western civilization as a colonial power. They see Israel as one as well. They think Israel is just this little matchbox of white people from Europe that came in and stole the brown people's land. That's how they filter everything through that. And look, what I'm proposing by defending Western civilization and the middle class, the nuclear family, doesn't mean and saying that we only have one culture, because we do.

Speaker 2:

It doesn't mean the melting pot goes away. It doesn't mean you can't go out with your friends on Cinco de Mayo and do shots of tequila. Go out with rice. I'll take you. DM me.

Speaker 2:

We'll go out on Saint Patrick's Day, You know? And we'll, we'll have some frothy pints and some Jameson. We'll wake up in New Jersey. It'll be fantastic. Okay?

Speaker 2:

We can do those things. We can go to yoga. We can eat sushi. We can experience all kinds of different types of foods and traditions and things that are brought here. But that having those things doesn't mean we're throwing out the Magna Carta.

Speaker 2:

It doesn't mean the Bill of Rights goes in the wood chipper. We can actually do both thing. Right? Because it changes us. It changes us.

Speaker 2:

Look. I'm Irish Catholic from Philly. People think corned beef and cabbage is an Irish dish. Now and a lot of Irish restaurants sell it as such. People make it as such.

Speaker 2:

They think of Saint Patrick's Day as I'm gonna have corned beef and cabbage. But the reality is this. Go to Ireland. You're not gonna find corned beef and cabbage except maybe in Dublin at some Disneyland Irish restaurant. Corned beef and cabbage came about for the Irish because when the Irish when the potato famine happens and the Irish start coming across the Atlantic in coffin ships, they are put in the neighborhoods in Boston and Philadelphia, New York and Chicago, Baltimore, with the other undesirable.

Speaker 2:

Now we predate the Italians getting here. They'll they'll come later, and they'll be hated even more because they can't speak English. But when we when we got here, we're put into these neighborhoods with Jewish people. But where do you think we learned and created the corn where do you think the corned beef corned beef cabbage came from? It came from living side by side with Jewish people in the Northeast Of The United States.

Speaker 2:

That's a variation on their dish. And now on Saint Patrick's Day, Saint Patrick wasn't even Irish himself, a whole another story. You know, he was probably Roman, but, you know, some of the Italians claim he's Italian. But everyone everyone was Roman then, and it doesn't make him necessarily Tony Soprano. But I will tell you that that is an example of what I'm talking about, that we blend together.

Speaker 2:

Don't allow the natural blending, which is what's American. And both my grandfathers were Irish. Both my grandmothers were German, Pennsylvania Dutch and German. You don't the natural beauty of that and the talent you get from it does not come about by just redistributing the entire third world doing Operation Dumbo Drop all over The United States, whether it's Jimmy Carter dumping the Hmong Hmong, I love saying it the Hmong people and the Mariel boat drop in Florida. And Obama was redistributing Syrians all over the place.

Speaker 2:

And now we got Haitians and, you know, Palestinians being redistributed all over the play. That is a that's that's gonna make United States into Yugoslavia. Right? That is not a good thing. Unchecked immigration, unchecked relocation of the third world, but they look.

Speaker 2:

It utopia takes too long, so they gotta speed it up. So we gotta crush the middle class now. Right? We gotta do it now. Hurry.

Speaker 2:

Hurry. Hurry. We're gonna run a clock. We're on a world economic forum's clock here. Let's go.

Speaker 2:

We gotta we gotta speed it up. So that's what they're doing. And I'm gonna I'm going to make fun of them and point out the the absurdity of it all. Better men than me are out there really in the thick of things. But I think the media in The United States is is failing, and we are beating them.

Speaker 2:

It's not just a ratings thing. We are winning arguments, especially in the Trump era where every conspiracy theory seems to have an expiration date until it becomes true. So, you know, what did Elon say when I bought Twitter? You know, every conspiracy theory that everyone had about Twitter turned out to be true. So, you know, we just got to keep pointing it out, and I know you do that here on this show.

Seth Holehouse:

Absolutely. And and, you know, one thing that I believe wholeheartedly, you go back to Breitbart, right, is that politics is downstream from culture. And, you know, we can't we can't change politics without changing culture. And that's it's a very it's it's a gross oversimplification, but, you know, it's true, right, in in many ways. You know?

Seth Holehouse:

So Taylor Swift coming out here as a cultural icon, you know, you know, she influences a lot of the country. And so I would say, though, that up until I think up until recently, the past couple of years, that the culture war has been won completely by the left. You know, they've they've completely you know, if you look at the power of Netflix and, you know, all this stuff, it's just it's this behemoth of of an industry that is all controlled. And and I don't even like saying the left. I I actually, in a lot of ways, I do feel like the whole left right paradigm is something that is just this this this distraction.

Seth Holehouse:

Right? It's like, okay. Get focused on fighting your neighbor with his Biden sign who wants free health care for his dying mother. You know what I mean? I think it's it's a much more I look at it as like, okay.

Seth Holehouse:

Who are the social engineers? Right? Who are the guys in the, you know, the the big bankers with their monocles, their top hats looking down at the world and arranging, okay. We're gonna make them fight these guys. We'll fund both sides of the wars.

Seth Holehouse:

You know what mean? But I think that the the culture war,

Speaker 2:

though Monocle.

Seth Holehouse:

Yeah. There you go. Like, monopoly.

Speaker 2:

Imagining what you're saying right there. That's the best. The penguin is the penguin. It's

Seth Holehouse:

That's that's true.

Speaker 2:

You're you're right, though. You're right, though. I mean, that's what they do. 100%.

Seth Holehouse:

And so my question to you is is mean, because you're doing it, and, actually, I'm trying to do it too. Right? Because media is, in essence, part of culture. It's what shapes the cultural discussions. It it's what highlights a certain culture and pushes away or ignores other cultural.

Seth Holehouse:

Right? I also used to work in the auction industry, right, in New York City. I had I had an auction house and and was, you know, you know, kinda bumping out with a lot of folks from Christie's and Sotheby's. Right? So that's how they changed the culture, you know, by making this, you know, Basquiat, this this you know, this guy who's, like, a drug addict painting skulls sells for a hundred and $20,000,000, and this beautiful, you know you know, seventeenth century, you know, you know, chunk of a chapel ceiling goes unsold.

Seth Holehouse:

Right? Because it's it's all about destroying the culture, and that's how they do that. So how do we how do we effectively fight back? So I'm starting to see more. I'm starting to see more, like, good comedians that are funny, that aren't just using wokeism.

Seth Holehouse:

Even some, you know, Bill Barr or Bill Bill Burr. Right? Yeah. Bill Burr.

Speaker 2:

Some of his stuff where he Bill Burr. Yeah. Bill Burr. Absolutely. And he's been out there.

Speaker 2:

A lot of those guys from Boston, you know, Leary and Louis CK, Gaine Cook, Bill Burr. I mean, they're they're never they're blue collar comedians. They're never and not not blue collar like Foxworthy and and Larry the Cable guy. They're like Northeast, you know, mostly Irish guys. And, you know, Gutfeld is showcasing a lot of these people.

Speaker 2:

That's good. Some of them have podcasts. Theo Vaughan and Shane Gillis and some of these guys. Right? So, the people are people are going to these podcasts instead of going to the nightly news.

Seth Holehouse:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I've watched something very interesting go on. Trump is going on all of these podcasts.

Seth Holehouse:

Yeah. He is.

Speaker 2:

And he's sitting there. He's sitting there with the bros. It's an amazing thing to watch happen. And Kamala's doing some of it too. And people are critiquing, she should be doing this.

Speaker 2:

She should be doing that. But it's interesting where where our politicians are going now to try to reach that small little sliver of people that are undecided. So it's what gives Rogan his power, for sure. I don't think there's any doubt Rogan's a traditional guy, probably agrees with most conservatives on a lot of stuff. He has not hosted Trump.

Speaker 2:

That's a Rubicon that he's not been willing to cross yet, but I dare I say that may happen. He's had RFK Jr. On and so on. But the alliance there, I guess you have to ask yourself, who do you want to roll with? You wanna roll with Elon and Tulsi and RFK junior who've all been red pilled.

Speaker 2:

Are they we we use the term left. You said it a minute ago. Are they people of the left? I think so, but not in the way that we used to think. I mean, they they're all former Democrats or current ones.

Speaker 2:

Naomi Wolf's another one, my client. You know? It's one of those things where they move the goalposts on these people. They didn't really move themselves. The goalposts move.

Speaker 2:

Right? What did Reagan used to say? I didn't leave the Democrat party. The Democrat party left me. So it's one of those situations.

Speaker 2:

But what a coalition, you know, with the Ron Paul people and some ex Bernie people, RFK junior people. I mean, I've gotta think we're the majority. Right? Dick Cheney and his ugly daughter cannot be the majority. Dick Cheney in drag and crying at him and pencil neck and the rest of the goons, they there's no way they could they could be the majority.

Speaker 2:

I mean, are you kidding me? And Kamala's standing up there talking about I've got the McCain's and the Romney's. And it I mean, it's just crazy. So I've gotta think that we are we're the true insurrection. You know?

Speaker 2:

Not the one, Pinzinger was looking for, but concerned patriots that, you know, one of some of us wanna be left alone, and some of us wanna preserve the institutions and the history that have made the country great. And that's really what Trump's talking about and, quite frankly, what RFK junior's talking about.

Seth Holehouse:

Yeah. I mean, it's funny because if you look at what that means, it's getting back to our roots. It's celebrating our culture. You know, I remember when Trump put out the 1776 commission. I was so impressed with that.

Seth Holehouse:

I still have the the little kind of booklet on my in in my library. Right? It's like, this is like this this was it was exciting. It was like, this is what I wanna wanna I wanna go back to. Right?

Seth Holehouse:

This is why we're gonna homeschool our kids. I've got, know, a four year old and a eight month old. Right? And it's like, okay. Yeah.

Seth Holehouse:

Full on homeschool. Like, here's how you're gonna live. It it's about it's about rejecting this, actually. It's about rejecting the woke mind virus. And, you know, I wanna see from your perspective, because in in publishing and in book sales, you're obviously seeing you're seeing data points that show you what is the collective consciousness doing, right, here in America.

Seth Holehouse:

What what are people thinking? And so from your perspective, are you seeing that there is this kind of massive awakening of people that a lot of folks are, like, just kind of waking up from a slumber and saying, woah, like, oh my gosh. Like like, why was I subscribed to Netflix? Like, I I don't wanna support this. Look at this Lucifer and this there's two guys kissing over there, and there's a tranny doing something else.

Seth Holehouse:

And, like so do you I I because I feel like that's

Speaker 2:

Wait. Wait. That's not are you describing the MSNBC programming, or where were you talking about? And about there. I mean yeah.

Speaker 2:

My god. No. You're right. I mean, look. But you have the right to vote with your wallet.

Speaker 2:

I'm not here to I'm not here to to censor other people because I don't wanna be censored. I don't I don't put out the purity test, but I think the market will decide. And, you know, from time to time, you have these these anti woke Waterloo moments. I mean, when Kid Rock lined up all those Bud Lights with his AR 15 and lit them up because Budweiser thought it was a good idea to put the tranny in the bathtub with the with the Bud Light pounders, that's the market responding. You know?

Speaker 2:

The CEO of eight hundred Bush got on a freaking plane as fast as he possibly could as he possibly could to get the Kid Rock's house. I mean, so you have situations like that where you just get totally called out. Elon buying Twitter, I don't think we quite understand the gravity of how important that has been, because it kind of evened the playing field. And he continues to. You know?

Speaker 2:

It's like having Ben Franklin or Albert Einstein campaigning for you. I've never seen anything like it.

Seth Holehouse:

That it's it's a big it's a big shift. But voting with our wallets, I do wanna pull up just the listing. This is I'm gonna encourage folks to vote with their wallets, and let's get your book up there, you top seller So and though you can get this so the main website for this is the right here. It's whiteprivilegealbum.com. That's where they've got all the information.

Seth Holehouse:

You can preorder, etcetera. But but but but the recommendation is to you get it through Amazon. As much as we don't wanna say support, you know, Jeff Bezos and all that kind of stuff, still, it's it's a venue that allows books like yours to reach a lot of people. And if we get more folks preordering and buying, then it shoves that book higher up in the list, and it helps it to reach more people. So amazon.com just just search extra.

Seth Holehouse:

I'll put a link in the description below, like, to the exact listing. It's the white privilege album and, you know, the your first book, The Woking Dead, which I just I think is awesome. It's it's so funny. How how great is that? You you can you can I can see that your humor matches up with mine because this is the kind of stuff that gets me excited about that stuff?

Seth Holehouse:

So, AJ, as we're as we're wrapping up, I just wanna ask you, is there any last kind of closing statement or final thoughts you wanna give people?

Speaker 2:

Yeah. I mean, I just wanna remind everyone that, even though the left is gonna try to divide us, or cultural Marxists are gonna try to divide us through the identity politics and shouting white privilege here or there, or, basically trying to shame us into not speaking out. Just understand, this country, this is your country. No one should look to Washington ever for help. Okay?

Speaker 2:

I don't care if we win the election. The reality is that, like Reagan used to say, the scariest words in the English language are, I'm from the government, and I'm here to help. You know? We need to take care of each other. You know?

Speaker 2:

Classic example is the government not responding. The one thing that they they they're supposed to do and do big is respond to natural disasters in an efficient manner. If they can't do that, respond to an to that gigantic moment, if they can't get our military out of Afghanistan in a competent fashion, if they can't even get an Obamacare website to run correctly, what why would you ever put these people in charge of anything that relates to you and your family? That could be the government school or relying on them to provide for you. Don't do that.

Speaker 2:

It's your country. Try to not be that uptight. I mean, I know it's some serious stuff. I think humor can bring people together. So go out there and get a copy of the book, white privilege album.

Speaker 2:

The holidays are coming up. If you've got a blue haired niece or nephew that you're looking to trigger and convert, tell them it's a book about the Beatles. It's a it's a Yoko Ono's biography, and see what they think when you hand it to them.

Seth Holehouse:

There you go. And and give some, like, My Pillow slippers with it.

Speaker 2:

That's right. Right. Exactly.

Seth Holehouse:

Well, AJ, it's been great having you on. Thank you for doing what you're doing. You know, I I commend anybody who's in the media publishing space because it's something that is so controlled and manipulated, and it it's a stronghold, right, of the of the Marxists that we have to keep we have to take over. You know, that's the thing is that I I I really do believe that most Americans don't buy into this crap. They really don't.

Seth Holehouse:

It's just that the the media and this this machine that they have wants us all to think that that's how everyone thinks because we're gonna conform to it because, you know, studies show that people will join the group where even though the group is actually wrong, they'll still join the group, I think, that most people are the group. So we have to be countering that, and so what you're doing is exactly that. So I'll pull up the Amazon listing one more time for folks. Again, Woking Dead and White Privilege album both on Amazon for, this is just for preorder. Is that correct right now?

Speaker 2:

No. It's no. They're both out now. Mean, you get look. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

The white privilege album's volume two, woken dead's volume one. So and we just put out a paperback of the woken dead. So you could get both of them, you know, at a pretty good price right now and, get some stocking stuffers for, you know, your crazy left wing uncle. So

Seth Holehouse:

There you go.

Speaker 2:

Pick up a copy.

Seth Holehouse:

Even though you told me before we started recording it, you're gonna send me a couple copies of the books, I would say, don't do it because I wanna go buy them. I'm gonna buy them from Amazon because I wanna be able to add one more one more, you know, five star review, one more purchase to add to that.

Speaker 2:

So Appreciate that, brother.

Seth Holehouse:

Absolutely, JJ. Well, thank you for doing what you're doing. Thank you for giving us your time today, and I look forward to catching up with you again, man.
