One sip of a martini and Knowles is ready to join the Crusaders' National Guard
This was always what I loved about the daily wire. I liked when you guys would collab and interact I hope you lean more into it in the future
I'm a simple man, I see Michael or Ben, I click the video.
It's kind of charming to see how these two are such good friends.
I love how the Lightning Round was anything but lightning 😂
When I heard Michale mention Charlie I was almost in tears... Hard to explain how much we lost with Charlie; none of us had any idea.
Ben and Michael collaborations have become some of my favorite works of content from DW
The way Ben says, "The AI has gotten good" is exactly the way I am going to deny incriminating pictures of myself.
So refreshing to watch some normal content in such a crazy world
I LOVE watching these two interact like this! Absolutely need more fun stuff between these two (and Matt Walsh!)
