Owen on Tucker

Tucker Carlson interviewed Owen Benjamin, nominally about his book, but mostly about the most cancelled man in comedy himself.

Owen Benjamin was probably the smartest, wisest person in Hollywood so of course he got canceled harder than anyone in the history of the entertainment business. That’s when he found the secret to happiness. A classically trained pianist turned comedian, Owen Benjamin weaves sharp-witted satire with deep dives into the complexities of the human condition. His unique blend of musical talent and unfiltered storytelling invites listeners to laugh through the chaos from his farm in North Idaho. His new book, “How to Slay a Wizard,” offers an instruction manual on how to not fall for the current spells that confuse the world. Ladle.tv for his podcast and comedy specials.

TUCKER: This is an organized effort against you. This is not organic. Who was organizing it? Do you know?

OWEN: I mean I have some theories…

TUCKER: But you don’t actually know for sure?

OWEN: I know the motivations. Every time I think I know for sure it switches a little. So now I try to not it’s not because I’m like worried to, I can’t really figure it out. It’s almost like a swarm.

TUCKER: Yes.

OWEN: It’s like a behavior where they’re signaling. That sounds even crazier, but

TUCKER: No, I’ve seen it.

OWEN: It’s like a It’s like a like a a behavior like a fractal.

TUCKER: Yes.

OWEN: And there’s no one really in charge, right?

TUCKER: It’s like a conspiracy of like-minded temperament.

OWEN: Cuz like from my background, I’m like, “Who did this to me?”

TUCKER: Yes.

OWEN: There’s no one there because who would really do that? It’s like a collective evil.

Big Bear even did me the favor of mentioning my book during the interview.

OWEN: A lot of people, they’re like I might be lying but I’m not wrong!

TUCKER: Right.

OWEN: Cuz they’re like, oh, no, it turns out that was all wrong, but I was still right because it’s me. Like I saw that in physics because I had a physics podcast at Calltech with my buddy who’s a nuclear physicist and dark matter. I couldn’t stop laughing when I realized it. So, they have these gravitational equations and when it wasn’t matching anything, they said, “Oh, there’s dark matter.” And I’m like, “What’s that?” They’re like, “95% of the universe you can’t see or measure and it’s like most of the gravity.” And I’m like, “How do you know it exists?” They’re like, “Swear to God.” They’re like, “Cuz if not, we’d be wrong!” And I’m like, “So, you can’t measure it?” They’re like, “No, that dark matter, but it’s there.” I’m like, “How do you know?” They’re like, “Cuz if not, then this is wrong.” Like Vox Day who published that book. He published a book breaking down how the math of evolution is so bad because he’s like one of those super geniuses. Vox is great guy, and it’s so bad, the actual math of it, just read the book Probability Zero. It’s like how long would it take for things to permeate, like a mutation, to permeate through the actual population. And when you see how completely ridiculous it is, I think they have trauma where they’re like, “Well, it can’t be that! I put a square on my head and brag to everyone and my life is a lie!”

The Manufactured

I’ve long pointed out how many of the “successful”, particularly those in the media, are the beneficiaries of manufactured success. Consider how the “mystery” of Banksy was known to the BBC for years before the “unknown” graffiti artist was exposed.

A former BBC reporter who claims he caught Banksy painting a mural in New York confessed that the corporation helped keep the artist’s identity a secret. Nick Bryant the BBC’s former New York correspondent said he saw a man coming out of a coffee shop near a newly completed mural in 2018.

The corporation’s cameraman filmed the encounter as the frazzled artist made his escape.

But when Mr Bryant called his bosses in London to tell them about his world exclusive the response was far from expected.

‘Minutes later, a phone call came through from London,’ Mr Bryant said. ‘A senior colleague told me that his daughter had accompanied him to work that day, and thought it was wrong to unveil. We should not be the news organisation, she reckoned, to tell kids there was no Father Christmas.’

Except Father Christmas wasn’t profiting by selling his art for millions because he was famous around the world for being unknown… And it wasn’t a senior colleague’s daughter who gave the order to prevent the journalist from exposing the artist’s identity, it was more likely someone higher up the Clown World chain.

It was Never Real

The Littlest Chickenhawk has been a manufactured creature since the beginning, when he was being pushed as a “musical prodigy” at the age of 12 back in 1996.

Larry King introduced him by informing the crowd that Shapiro wanted to be the first Orthodox Rabbi to sit on the Supreme Court of the United States. He also wanted to play his violin at Carnegie Hall.

Of course, he couldn’t cut it as a violinist, a lawyer, or a rabbi, so he was repurposed as a “whip-smart” political commentator, spitting out AIPAC talking points while being handed everything from syndicated columns and book deals to Michael Savage’s radio show despite the fact that he was never even among the ten most popular columnists on WND back in the day. On average, he was number 14.

The tragedy of Ben Shapiro is that he knows he’s a fraud. He realized it even before he went to college, when he began to understand that he didn’t have the ability to think for himself or enough talent to accomplish anything on his own. This is why so many celebrities and “successful” people have Imposter Syndrome: they are imposters whose success is fake and manufactured. Once the funding required to maintain their pretend popularity dries up, their audience disappears because it never really existed in the first place.

The Dirty Patriots

Robert Kraft may never enter the Pro Football Hall of Fame despite his undeniable accomplishments as an owner thanks to his intrinsically sketchy behavior.

Robert Kraft, the owner of the New England Patriots, tried to stop the New York Post from publishing shocking photos of head coach Mike Vrabel and The Athletic reporter Dianna Russini, according to multiple sources.

“Robert Kraft intervened and had his honchos pressure The Post before they published and tried to kill the story,” a source exclusively tells In Touch. “The Post gave Vrabel a longer time to respond than what is considered industry norms, and Kraft took advantage of that extended timeframe to put pressure on the reporter and the newspaper. A notorious crisis strategist made the call but was unsuccessful in neutering the story.”

The New York Post published an article reported by Oli Coleman and titled, “New England Patriots’ Mike Vrabel and top NY Times NFL reporter Dianna Russini hold hands and hug at luxury hotel,” on Tuesday, April 7, alongside damning photos of the two at a luxury resort in Sedona, Arizona.

It’s always something with the Patriots. Even when, as in this case, the problem preceded Vrabel becoming their head coach. While it’s not surprising that Kraft would want to kill the story, it is a little surprising that he would be so naive as to think that he might be able to do so.

It tends to raise the question of what other stories these wicked elites are successfully suppressing.

They’re Trying to Tell You

“We need to be sad about Trump. This is not funny. This is not good. But he’s gone. And that’s it… Sadly, the Trump we all knew and loved no longer exists.”
—Alex Jones

For whatever reason, the mainstream and conservative media figures can’t tell you what they know. I don’t know why, perhaps they fear for their “credibility” or perhaps they simply aren’t permitted to tell the truth and still keep their lofty, well-paid positions. Regardless, it’s obvious they all know that Short, Fat, Wall of Text Trump isn’t President Donald Trump. They know he isn’t and they’re trying to tell you that.

It’s not a metaphor when they keep asking “how can the Donald Trump who once said X be the same Donald Trump who now says Y?”

The 4-Day War

I remembered the US-Iran war was only supposed to last four days when it first kicked off, but it’s become very hard to find any references to those statements now that the war is approaching its third week.

The United States government had told Turkey through official channels that the war on Iran would only take four days, Asli Aydintasbas, a Washington-based Turkey expert, said during an interview on Sunday.

“Turkey and some of its allies were told, through official channels, that this operation would take days and be completed in four days,” Aydintasbas, a fellow at the Brookings Institution, said in an interview with the Serbestiyet news site. “You cannot tell a Nato ally that you have made a four-day plan and then extend the operation to 14 days. In a sense, this was also a betrayal of the regional countries.”

This is why I barely pay any attention to the mainstream media anymore. Not only are you not informed correctly, you’re constantly being gaslit about what the media itself said the day before.

How Bad is the War Going?

It’s going so bad that the FCC is threatening to institute Israel-style military censorship:

Brendan Carr, chairman of the FCC, has threatened to revoke broadcasters’ licenses over their coverage of the war, accusing several media outlets of “running hoaxes and news distortions.” This comes after President Trump bashed the NYT, WSJ, and other mainstream media outlets for their “intentionally misleading” broadcasting, accusing them of wanting to see America “lose the war.”

Which is amusing in light of how nothing Short Fat Trump says is even remotely true. The idea that Iran is “seeking a deal” but he’s just too strong to accept their terms is openly laughable given how Iran’s spokesman has made it perfectly clear that there is absolutely no point talking to enemies who literally bomb you in the middle of negotiations. Especially when those enemies are crowing about how the war is already over…

I don’t know why any country would negotiate with any Clown World-ruled country. They never abide by any agreements, so there is no point in even pretending to talk to them. Which, of course, drives the wizards mad, because one way to neutralize their word games is to simply not listen to them.

Phase Two Begins

  • Tehran has decided to stop attacking targets in neighboring states, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said in a televised speech. Pezeshkian also apologized to the countries of the region and expressed the Islamic Republic’s respect for their sovereignty.
  • Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran is not seeking a ceasefire and sees no reason to negotiate with the US, arguing that previous talks had been interrupted by attacks.
  • The Gulf State ambassadors have appealed to Russia to pressure Iran into a ceasefire, but Russia has pointed out that Iran was attacked by Israel and the USA and has a right to defend itself.
  • All of the social media companies except Tik Tok have banned videos and pictures of Iranian strikes.

Translation: Tehran has accomplished its phase one objective of disrupting the global economy and degrading the US military bases in the region and is now ready to concentrate its attacks on Israel and US military assets. So expect more heat and more over-the-top rhetoric in the coming week, not less.

Neon Revolt exposes Conservative Inc.’s professional shills who get their talking points from their paymasters.

Subject: Urgent: Shut Down Candace s Latest Smear – Action Needed TONIGHT

This isn’t journalism. It’s pure evil — demonic slander against a widow still in mourning, dragging Charlie’s name and legacy through the mud tor clicks and clout.

We’ve seen her pattern before, but this time it’s personal, it’s vicious, and it has to stop.

Talking Points – Use These Verbatim or Close Variations:

• Candace Owens is evil. Pure evil.

• This is demonic. Straight-up satanic-level attack on a ‘widow and her kids.

• Candace is a demon obsessed with destroying Charlie’s family.

• How can any real Christian stay silent while she attacks Erika Kirk like this?

• She’s not “asking questions” — she’s conducting a witch hunt.

Action Items – Do This NOW (before it trends further):

1 Quote or Reply to this key post exposing the trailer and call it out using the language above:

Mtp§^x.<^Fn_CQm/s.tatus/2026We5824255535l2

(RT’s post with the trailer video — high visibility, amplify the outrage there.)

2 Share & Quote Graham Alien’s strong stand — he’s leading the charge:

(His video declaring he’s “coming for everyone responsible’ — boost this hard.)

3 Post your own version if you have reach — tag big accounts like @catturd2. @GuntherEagleman, @WellsJorda89710. @JoelWBerry and use #StandWithErika #CharlieKtrkLegacy tfStopCandace

  1. Flood the replies under any Candace-defending or neutral posts with the demomc/evil framing make it impossible to ignore.

This coordinated push worked against her before — it can bury this trailer before episode 1 even drops Don’t let the “discernment’ crowd spin this as brave truth-telling. It’s exploitation of tragedy.

II you’re in — hit reply with “In” and we’ll loop you into the next update.

For Charlie. For Erika For the kids. For what’s left of decency on our side.

Stay strong.

CU Team

(Forward-only — do not reply-all)

It’s not exactly hard to ID the ConJournoPros. Nor is it a surprise that the Boomers’ favorite social media performer, Catturd, is one of them. This is why you should never call yourself a “conservative”. It’s never been a coherent political philosophy or anything more than substance-free public posturing for self-appointed Public Decency Warriors.

And you can’t be a good PDW if you can’t muster a convicing “how dare you” from time to time.

Milo, of course, is already on it.

Victory Lap

After embracing diversity and inclusion, Bounding Into Comics is no more:

John F. Trent founded Bounding Into Comics over a decade ago to provide a Christian and conservative alternative to the corporate shills at CBR, Screen Rant, Kotaku, and IGN. While those outlets pushed DEI initiatives and woke activism disguised as journalism, Trent built something different with truthful, hard-hitting coverage that actually held the entertainment industry accountable.

The site exploded in popularity, reaching three to five million views in peak months. Trent became the most important investigative journalist in pop culture, uncovering activist statements and industry malfeasance that everyone else either ignored or actively covered up. Geeks and Gamers, Friday Night Tights, Yellow Flash, and The Quartering built entire YouTube channels reading Trent’s research aloud. His work formed the backbone of alternative pop culture commentary.

Then the company was sold. In 2023, The Publisher Desk acquired Bounding Into Comics and immediately began gutting what made the site successful. The new owners demanded Trent tone down rhetoric against LGBTQ activism, stop criticizing the replacement of white characters in films and comics, and eliminate negative commentary about Disney to appease advertisers.

The Publisher Desk wanted to transform Bounding Into Comics into another corporate mouthpiece indistinguishable from the sites it was created to oppose. They told Trent to remove his Christian viewpoint from articles and eliminate his anti-LGBTQ stances. The message was clear: conform or leave.

Trent chose his principles and left a month later.

And somewhere, John Trent is smiling…
