  • Welcome to another edition of Morgan's Mailbag, where I get to respond to your comments, questions, and on occasion, unhinged rants.
  • Now, as usual, my producers have picked the best ones out for me.
  • And by that, I mean the ones that they hope will make my head explode.
  • And as usual, this will be the very first time I've seen any of this.
  • So it's all kind of live reaction.
  • Let's get going.
  • We start with my heated discussion with Tessa Dunlop about whether the British taxpayer should fund Prince Harry's security.
  • Key assets.
  • He gets protection when he attends a royal event.
  • He just wants it all the time when he's in the country.
  • Harry, once a prince, always a prince.
  • Isabel Santos Kunar declared a winner.
  • I agree with you completely and totally, Piers, one hundred percent.
  • I'm not even going to waste your time explaining why.
  • You said it all very clearly.
  • Thank you, Isabel.
  • It's not difficult, is it?
  • Those two clowns in Montecito want their royal cake and eat it, and they shouldn't be allowed to guzzle it.
  • That's it.
  • End.
  • Next, my one on one with modern wisdom podcaster and former Love Island contestant Chris Williamson, full of interesting tidbits.
  • Mass shootings, toxic masculinity, gang violence, climate change, the financial crisis, Brexit is toxic masculinity, the election of Donald Trump, not wearing a mask...
  • eating meat, physical fitness, fast food, capitalism is toxic masculinity and communism is toxic masculinity, hip hop, smelling of Axe body spray, being stoic, risk taking, religion but also secularism and atheism, playing board games, being interested in cars and saying hello or have a nice day.
  • Poco is one of Chris's biggest female fans.
  • She wrote, When did we decide that all masculine traits were evil?
  • When did we describe that men are evil?
  • When did all this nonsense start?
  • Most men are not evil.
  • Most masculine traits are good.
  • Most women would like their men to be masculine, not emasculated.
  • And if you don't believe me, go and ask them.
  • Who are these women that want these ridiculous, pathetic, whiny, weak doormats as their bloke?
  • They should be shamed, not us.
  • One of the subjects my producers made me discuss with Chris was that of fapping.
  • Google it if you're unsure, or maybe don't Google it if you're sensitive.
  • Fapping is a thing, but are you saying I'm pro fapping or anti fapping or just a pathological fapper?
  • I didn't even know what fapping was.
  • This, frankly, toe curling exchange motivated Chris Williamson himself to leave this comment.
  • Who knew that fapping would be such an important topic to bond over?
  • The bromance is real.
  • Let's not get ahead of ourselves here, Chris.
  • You're the fapper or the non fapper.
  • I can't quite work out what you are.
  • I don't partake in either a pro fapping or non fapping position.
  • I'm a neutral fapper commentator, OK?
  • Well, next, the big brain that is Professor John Mearsheimer is on the show talking geopolitics and international war games.
  • I think in the case of Ukraine, it was NATO expansion eastward and the attempt to make Ukraine a Western bulwark on Russia's borders.
  • I would take issue with that because I think Putin is a former KGB guy who never thought the Soviet Union should be broken up.
  • He would love to restore it as much as he could.
  • One person wrote, that was a fantastic debate from two people with different views.
  • Unlike all the one sided debates, all the people are against one side.
  • Yes, yes, yes.
  • That
  • is the point of Uncensored, is I like to get people on that I may not agree with, but have a civilized debate where you can agree to disagree, explore each other's positions, argue, challenge, maybe reach points of consensus.
  • Perhaps, God forbid, admit you might be wrong about something because the guy that you're arguing with has come up with a really good interpretation of a set of facts you haven't thought of.
  • That is called democracy.
  • That's how we used to do things.
  • What's happened to the world where you can't have that kind of civilized discussion?
  • It's nuts.
  • Echo chambers are the enemy.
  • Let's get back to having spirited debate and a pint afterwards, or a cup of tea.
  • Well, not everyone agreed.
  • TheRambler, three, seven, one, three, the clue's in the name, isn't it, Rambler, commented, Piers came to argue, Mearsheimer came to teach.
  • That's the summary of this whole interview.
  • Well, yeah, to a point, Lord Copper.
  • Here's the thing.
  • I don't agree with Mearsheimer, particularly about Putin's motivation.
  • I think he, to be fair, as I said to him at the time, and I don't want to be ad hominem about this, I thought he was actually being taken in a bit by Putin.
  • I wouldn't trust Putin as far as I could throw the guy.
  • He is a malevolent, ruthless, selfish dictator who will kill anyone that gets in his way, as we saw with Paul Navalny recently.
  • So I don't trust him, and I don't believe a word he says about his motivation.
  • I think he wants to restore the Soviet Union as fast as he possibly can.
  • Well, at Golden Child, contacted us to alert me about something they want my opinion on.
  • Piers, have you seen Sam Smith's latest looks at the Paris Fashion Week?
  • We'd love to know what you think.
  • I'm going to be honest, Golden Child, I tried not to.
  • But then one of my producers did alert me to a bit of footage of Sam Smith on the catwalk.
  • And well, look, this is it.
  • And honestly, what's my reaction?
  • What the f*** is he wearing?
  • Seriously?
  • And you'll have to censor that, because I just uttered a profanity.
  • This is censored Piers Morgan uncensored.
  • Because I can't say what I really think, which is it's f***ing ridiculous.
  • The guy has lost the plot.
  • And we're supposed to go along with this and respect it.
  • No.
  • You don't like a ridiculous Viking wannabe.
  • Nuts.
  • Get back to singing.
  • You've got a good voice.
  • Stop all this nonsense.
  • After Donald Trump's recent barnstorming speech at CPAC, we invited two cultural warriors, who vehemently disagree about the former president, to debate.
  • Tomi Lahren, making his uncensored debut, the YouTuber Destiny.
  • When Donald Trump was my president, the economy was doing well.
  • We ended endless wars.
  • We started no new wars.
  • There was relatively peace around the world with Donald Trump at the helm of the United States of America.
  • If you want to elect a comedian because he's got good charisma, then I agree that Trump definitely has better stage presence than Biden does.
  • Douglas Newman, at eight nine twelve, wrote, there is a huge cohort of voters who would vote for an old tuna fish sandwich if your turn to this Trump.
  • Biden's detractors are irrelevant if Trump is a Republican nominee.
  • Yeah, it's that kind of complacency which is going to let Donald Trump win this election.
  • I see it with so many Democrats.
  • It doesn't matter how old and decrepit Biden is.
  • He's doing the job.
  • No one's going to vote Trump back in.
  • Remember, Trump got ten million more votes in twenty twenty than twenty sixteen.
  • He never won the Iowa caucus in twenty sixteen.
  • He did just now.
  • He is romping away with the Republican nomination at the same speed that Joe Biden is deteriorating before our very eyes.
  • If Biden is the Democrat nominee, take this to the bank.
  • Trump will be back at the White House.
  • Well, Akshaya Uddin had some feedback for me personally on how the debate went.
  • For a host, Pierce did a shitty job not being partial to one side over the other.
  • He may as well kiss the hands of Trump and shine his shoes for him too.
  • I wouldn't shine his shoes, but I've got to say this about Trump.
  • Whatever you think of him, and I've known him a long time, and I've had times, good times with him, I've had some rough times with him, turbulent times, times I've praised him and criticized him, whatever you think of him, what a thick skin that guy has.
  • This is one of the greatest comebacks in the history of world politics.
  • Any other politician who'd been through what Trump's been through, and is now facing ninety one criminal charges, would be dead and buried.
  • A rotting political carcass.
  • But he's not.
  • It just made him stronger.
  • And if he does pull this off, again, whatever you think of Trump, and I've always thought the bark is a lot worse than the actual bite with Trump.
  • But whatever you think of him, you have to take your hat off to the way he has not only survived, but thrived and bounced back in a way nobody, perhaps not even him in his own mirror, thought was possible.
  • Thank you.
  • Where am I?
  • Thank you.
  • Well, mind you, the German filmmaking legend Werner Herzog... By the way, I'm only good when I play the villain, the real bad ass villain.
  • You've got a great villain face, if you don't mind me saying.
  • I mean, you're a natural villain.
  • Lots of love for this one.
  • One correspondent said...
  • I was anticipating that deep sinister gaze.
  • Yeah, me too.
  • That gaze that could extract your soul, turn your skin inside out, always captivating.
  • He would love that phraseology, by the way.
  • He's an eloquent man of words and I agree with him.
  • He was brilliant.
  • at Giant Idiot, that is his actual name, commented Hertzog is a wise and brilliant man and artist, an oasis of thoughtfulness and modesty in an arrogant and crazy world.
  • Thanks for this interview, well thank you for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
  • One of Hertzog's opinions on the Barbie film of course made international headline.
  • Could it be that the world of Barbie is sheer hell?
  • Damjana Finnick responded, Barbie is a wonderful satire.
  • The cast is perfect.
  • The movie is so, so funny.
  • Yes, that pink paradise is a hell of a sort.
  • And Herzog meant that, I'm sure.
  • Yeah, I think what Herzog meant was what he said.
  • It is actually the personification of hell.
  • And finally, lots of you are going to be enjoying Morgan's mailbag itself.
  • Atladynance wrote, that was fun.
  • I think you owe it to your editor to name him, her, whatever in a credit.
  • A lot of very hard work done very well.
  • Yeah, his name is just, it slips my mind.
  • He's great.
  • Really good, full of energy, creativity.
  • Ah, that's it, that's awkward.
  • I'll remember his name next week.
