Rob Schneider

Joe Polish sits down with actor and comedian Rob Schneider to discuss his willingness to risk his career and face public backlash in defense of his beliefs. Rob shares his thoughts on the current political climate, the consequences of "cancel culture," and his new venture in a ghost town gold and silver mine. The conversation explores the shifting values of younger generations, the importance of free speech in comedy, and why Rob advocates for a return to traditional American values. Here's what you're about to discover in this conversation: The financial and professional cost Rob has actually paid for speaking out, and why he says it was the right sacrifice. Why Rob proposed reinstating the military draft with no exceptions. The backstage confrontation with Robert De Niro at Saturday Night Live, and the three words Rob said that ended it. What drew Rob to a genuine Arizona ghost town as the site of his most unlikely business venture with Joe Polish.

Show Notes: King Global and the Arizona Ghost Town Rob and Joe have partnered on King Global Ventures, a publicly traded gold and silver mining company operating in Arizona, centered on an actual ghost town. Rob describes donning a construction helmet and ducking into mine shafts where prospectors worked generations ago. "These people are all dust themselves," he says, and extending their dream is something he never expected to be doing. For Rob, King Global represents a broader shift: a decision to say yes to things he never would have considered before. The Cost of Speaking Out Rob says the financial cost has been real: studio deals gone, film opportunities dried up, death threats extended to people he loves. He frames it against the American founders. John Stockton of New Jersey, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, gave up everything, watched his wife imprisoned, and died in poverty. A third of Americans were loyalists who stayed safe. A third were ambivalent. A third got involved, and it was enough to defeat the greatest superpower the world had ever known. His conclusion: "You have to make a sacrifice. You have to be willing to risk everything." Charlie Kirk, His Murder, and the 22.5% Shift Rob describes his initial suspicion of the young activist. "What is this kid? What's the angle?" What he found was a man motivated by genuine Christian faith and love of country. Kirk's campus debate work produced a 22.5% increase in young people identifying as conservative at the university level, something Rob calls unprecedented in American history. His teenage daughter asked him, "Are they going to kill you like Charlie Kirk?" Rob told her there are things worth dying for. Free Speech and the FIRE Survey Rob cites a FIRE survey: a decade ago, 99.9% of young people said violence to silence speech was unacceptable. Now 36% say it is acceptable. He describes the phenomenon not as grassroots anger but as a "forever revolution" designed to keep institutions permanently destabilized. His model for responding: Lincoln writing furious letters to General McClellan at night, then writing "not sent," waiting until morning, and writing the letter that actually served the goal. The De Niro Confrontation Robert De Niro confronted Rob backstage at Saturday Night Live over Rob's public criticism of wealthy entertainers who advocate open borders from behind security gates and private jets. Rob held De Niro's arm, looked at him, and said, "I love you." Repeated it. De

Perspectives on Comedy, Culture, and the American State: A Briefing on Rob Schneider’s Analysis Executive Summary This document synthesizes key insights from a wide-ranging discussion involving comedian Rob Schneider regarding the current state of American culture, the evolution of comedy, and the shifting political landscape. The central thesis posits that the "90s liberal" values of free speech and individual rights have been rebranded as "right-wing fascism" by modern progressive movements. Critical takeaways include: The Decline of "Woke" Hegemony: Schneider contends that "woke" culture is collapsing as the public becomes increasingly exposed to its contradictions. He credits figures like Dave Chappelle and companies like Netflix for resisting censorship. Free Speech and University Litigation: A significant legal challenge is being mounted against the University of California, Berkeley, following the suppression of a comedy event. Schneider argues that free speech includes the "right to hear" as much as the right to speak. The Role of Selective Service: To combat national divisiveness and "anti-gratitude," Schneider proposes reinstating the military draft to foster social cohesion and force leaders to be more cautious regarding foreign wars. Political Realignment: The discussion highlights a growing alliance between traditional liberals and conservative organizations, such as Turning Point USA, driven by shared concerns over institutional "tyranny" and the preservation of Western values.

Hollywood is built on the promise of fame, money, and influence. But if that’s the "dream," why does the glitz and glamour leave so many icons feeling hopeless and empty inside? You’ve seen Rob Schneider on SNL and in box-office hits like 50 First Dates, but you've never seen him like this. From his journey to faith, to his front-row seat to the "cancel culture" wars, Rob is pulling back the curtain on what it’s like to be a Christian in an industry that’s increasingly hostile to the Gospel. You’re going to laugh (it's Rob Schneider, after all!), but you’ll also be challenged to think deeply about the cultural moment we’re living in right now. Together, Frank and Rob answer questions like: How did Rob get started in comedy and who was his biggest inspiration? How did he become a Christian? Is using foul language forgivable? What are some of the psychological challenges of being a comedian? How does comedy help people understand truth better than a straightforward lecture? What happens in Hollywood when you become a Christian and come out as a conservative? Why does fame and fortune often fail to deliver actual fulfillment? How have brave voices like Charlie Kirk, Peter Boghossian, and Ayaan Hirsi Ali inspired Rob to speak up? Why is Rob such a history buff and what are his thoughts on the current war in Iran? What does progressivism REALLY mean? What surprising project is Rob working on right now? What unexpected event happened at the 50th anniversary of SNL? In addition to his comedy tour, Rob is the author of 'You Can Do It! Speak Your Mind America'.
