Manager of the last open Blockbuster says the store has no plans to close
We sent our own Kat Timpf to investigate how this endangered species has managed to survive.
This is a rush transcript from "The Greg Gutfeld Show," March 16, 2019. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.
GREG GUTFELD, HOST: When a massacre like the one in New Zealand occurs, it's tempting to opine but we're going to leave that to others. We do know that evil exists and when evil plans in a world of seven billion souls it's often hard to stop it.
The vile terrorists left behind a manifesto, but his twisted beliefs only exists to mess with us. His views veer all over the place. He hates immigration, but he loves the environment. He hates diversity and individuality, he's an eco-fascist, a green nationalist.
When you think about it, he's nothing.
So as usual, his name shall never be mentioned here, but the point worth noting is this: He wished through his violent act to create a civil war here. The terrorism was meant to foment unrest and conflict, so if we were to point fingers at each other, like other networks do, then we fulfill that goal. So we won't.
We all believe in something that can later be twisted by evil men and that puts all of us in the same boat. So that's it for now. We're going to do a normal show, but you can bet that our hearts and our thoughts are with the victims and their families.
All right, imagine you're on a bus or a train and there's only one seat available next to you and of course here comes a young bony backpacker with patchy facial hair wearing a wool cap in the summertime. He sits down and he just starts talking to you. It turns out, he's really excited and really excitable.
He just went backpacking all around Europe and he has so much to tell you about the world and he's dying to tell you all about it. that's our Beto.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE AND FEMALE: That's our Beto.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: Yes, in today's episode Beto tells us that the world is ending.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
BETO O'ROURKE, D-PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: There is going to be massive migration of tens or hundreds of millions of people from countries that are literally uninhabitable or underwater that are above the sea right now. This is our final chance.
The scientists are absolutely unanimous on this that we have no more than 12 years to take incredibly bold action on this crisis.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
GUTFELD: He looks like he's conducting the London Philharmonic after freebasing a pound of raw cookie dough. I haven't seen that much hand movement since I visited that massage parlor in Florida, of course you know who else noticed. This guy.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT: I think he's got a lot of hand movement. I've never seen so much hand look. I said, "Is he crazy? Or is that just the way he acts?" So I've never seen hand movement. I watched him a little while this morning doing, I assume, it was some kind of a news conference and I've actually never seen anything quite like it. Study it. I'm sure you'll agree.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
GUTFELD: Study it. Study it. I'm sure you'll agree. From now on that's all you're going to see, Beto's hands and you know what else is great, we're going get a nickname -- weird Beto, crazy Beto, batty Beto -- even better, this would be the first time we'll have a Democratic primary ever that comes with Trump commentary.
(Laughter)
GUTFELD: You don't understand, that's going to be [bleep] awesome.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: Now, all of this all of this somehow coincides with a "Vanity Fair" cover story on our latest Democratic Messiah. What a coincidence. It's a 10,000 word full-blown ass-kissing. I haven't seen that much brown- nosing since I woke up that morning at a dog park.
(Laughter)
GUTFELD: I don't know. But Beto, he has hit the media jackpot. He is a non-threatening fin, white progressive, he's Bernie Sanders without the dandruff at about 50 years.
More important, he's them and they are him - a mirror to the media. No wonder "Vanity Fair" was so in love. How much in love? Imagine how a little girl looks at a pony or a boy at a shiny bicycle under a Christmas tree or Michael Moore eyeing a Twinkie dipped in barbecue sauce. A Twinkie dipped in barbecue sauce, if you haven't tried it, well you're missing out.
But that's how the writer sees Beto. Now, mind you, he wrote a similar Valentine to John Edwards. That didn't end well. The last time I checked, Johnny is guessing people's weight at the carnival. Now the writer isn't the only one going fan boy over Beto, half the press keeps referring to Beto as Kennedy-esque and sadly, they do not mean this one.
(Applause)
GUTFELD: Yes, that's our Kennedy, but as I always say being called Kennedy-esque is cool unless they're referring to your driving.
Oh stop it. The media's big narrative, Beto is David to Trump's Goliath, but anyone with a brain knows that the Giant has always been the media, so you can't say Beto is the David when he's got the full force of the Goliath media behind him, and it's not Beto's fault that he's Goliath teacher's pet, it's easy to be their pet, just do what they say, but God help you if you don't. Just ask Tucker.
But let me ask you this, let me ask you this, if you look at the David and Goliath analogy, what reality comes closest to that? If Goliath is the consensus media that would make David Donald Trump and Trump used their spotlight as his slingshot and they've never been the same ever since.
So in the world of politics, there's only one Goliath and it controls the stories, creates the division, constantly sowing conflict to ensure their own economic survival, which is why I embrace Daylight Savings Time -- transition eh.
Trump wants it to be permanent and so do I. Daylight Savings Time -- it sets the clocks forward, meaning we lose one hour of the media lying to you.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: We have longer, brighter days ahead, an extra hour to do stuff outside. How will you spend yours?
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: If Daylight Savings becomes permanent, imagine all of the things you could do with that extra hour of sunlight. You could go for a run after work, take your dog to the park, volunteer at the nursing home or find the best outdoor happy hour, get loaded on martinis and throw up on a stranger.
With that extra hour, you can indulge your bird-watching hobby, mow your lawn at sunset, meet an old friend for coffee or pass out in the park after drinking at the best outdoor happy hour and go to work in yesterday's clothes stinking of old cigarettes and dogs [bleep].
With another hour of sunlight, you could catch Junior's little league game, give the garage a thorough cleaning, take a yoga class in the park or buy a case of beer and sit on the porch and drink until you're screening your ex- wife's name into a pillow dampened by your own tears.
So get ready for permanent Daylight Savings. It's a victory for everyone, but mostly alcoholic.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
(Cheering and Applause)
ANNOUNCER: Period.
GUTFELD: Let's welcome tonight's guests. We called it the cab driver open casket look, here is our comedian, Jimmy Failla.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: When it comes to heroism, he truly is the bomb, former U.S. Marines bomb technician, Staff Sergeant Joey Jones.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: She only sasses in her fake glasses, host of the "Tyrus and Timpf Podcast," Kat Timpf.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: And his tailor charges him triple, former WWE superstar and my massive sidekick and host of "UnPC" on Fox Nation, Tyrus.
Jimmy, I'm glad you dressed up again. I, honestly, you need help. What do you make of all of this fawning? How is the media not aware of what they're doing? I don't understand it.
JIMMY FAILLA, COMEDIAN: It's embarrassing. Can I start there?
GUTFELD: Yes.
FAILLA: It's embarrassing like he is emblematic of everything that's wrong with the everybody gets a trophy generation in that he ran for Senate, lost, but got treated like he won, and now he ran into the world with the overconfidence of the ugly person who thinks they're hot. You know what I mean?
And now he's approaching people at the party he shouldn't be approaching because he doesn't know he's a four, you know.
GUTFELD: Yes, exactly.
FAILLA: Just take it from a fellow four. You've got to know your limitations, people.
GUTFELD: You're a three eight.
FAILLA: I'll take it. And I appreciate the Kennedy shout out by the way. A lot of you don't know, I write for the Kennedy Show on Fox Business and if you guys were to watch it -- hey, thank you.
And a lot of people say in the comment, "Oh, Fox Business, how could you do that?" The truth is, I wanted to write for a comedy channel that CNN wasn't hiring. So here we are. But I am trying.
GUTFELD: It is funny though, they keep saying he is Kennedy-esque, but he looks like a Kennedy four, right?
FAILLA: Oh, yes, he's definitely like a stunt double like third-string Kennedy.
GUTFELD: Exactly.
FAILLA: Yes, he's embarrassing. The things he's saying though like you said earlier like we're the last hope the earth has, it's like I've heard Trump be accused of a lot of things. No one has ever called him the meteor from Armageddon. You know what I mean?
I mean, like, you want to relax, dude, this is embarrassing.
GUTFELD: What about you Joey? Are you inspired by Beto?
SSGT. JOEY JONES, RET., U.S. MARINES BOMB TECHNICIAN: No, I'm not inspired by Beto, believe it or not. You're talking about a guy who is well established with a Spanish name.
We're talking about a guy who's a product of private school that would probably have our kids suffer in public school for the rest our lives. You're talking about a guy who compared you know climate change scientists to the men who stormed Normandy.
And so men who fought for freedom, he would rather just give up our freedom. I could go on, but I think I'm good on Beto.
GUTFELD: Yes, you are. Do you live in his district?
JONES: What's that?
GUTFELD: You live in Texas, right?
JONES: I lived in Texas. I recently moved back to my home state of Georgia.
GUTFELD: Oh fantastic. Georgia, another state.
JONES: Yes.
GUTFELD: Kat, you excited about Beto? I bet you have some strong thoughts?
KAT TIMPF, HOST, FOX NATION: I'm --
GUTFELD: You've dated men like Beto?
TIMPF: Yes, but like with tattoos and nose piercings. It's true.
GUTFELD: When did you get rid of them?
TIMPF: Recently. But I am confused -- I'm confused by Beto because as everyone has mentioned so far, he lost his home state and now he says, "Oh I will run for President." That is like getting cut from your high school football team and then saying you're going to try to make it in the NFL.
Like, that is like --
(Applause)
TIMPF: I've got more. I've got more. It's like [bleep] peanut butter and jelly and then deciding to open a restaurant, also I've got this one.
GUTFELD: Okay.
TIMPF: It's like asking a girl to prom and then when she says no, saying, "Okay, well then can I get you pregnant?"
(Laughter)
TIMPF: I'm so glad I don't have that kind of delusional self-confidence because I would probably be pursuing a bodybuilding career right now.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: Applause the crazy lady.
TIMPF: Thank you.
GUTFELD: You know, Tyrus, I love the fact that the Trump's comment, if he keeps doing this, he's saying what we're thinking. The only thing you could see with the hands and that's the thing that he commented on. I love that.
GEORGE "TYRUS" MURDOCH, HOST, FOX NATION: I saw a lot more than the hands, bro, like let's slow this down for a minute. Okay, this is blatant collusion by the media trying to influence an election. A guy - you lost to Ted Cruz. Ted [bleep] Cruz, dude. If Ted Cruz beat me at anything, I'm not coming back.
FAILLA: You know what I was going to say to.
GUTFELD: What?
FAILLA: To Tyrus' point that they're colluding with him, they are selling the message for him and this is where they completely misunderstand the electorate, they're trying to sell us on the idea of how great his rallies are and they don't understand that nothing competes with a Trump rally. Can I just explain this to you?
Let me just jump in. When you go to any Democratic rally, any Democratic rally, it's completely calculated. They have an audience coordinator that makes sure there's one of every type of human being who can possibly pull a lever in the background, so you like white, black, Asian, Yankee, met, Pokemon, Pikachu, Mario, Luigi -- when you go to a Trump rally, it looks like the line to get seated at Cracker Barrel. It's amazing. It's amazing.
The guy on the left in a who forwarded t-shirt. There's an old woman with a musket. There's a fat guy eating pizza, that's Chris Christie and everybody is just having a great time and I love Chris Christie. I'm not knocking him.
GUTFELD: Tyrus, final thought?
FAILLA: I'm sorry.
MURDOCH: I was going to say, wow, that was a hell of a rant there. That's Kat's stick by the way. Trump is so powerful, "Vanity" made him put his hands in his back pocket. No one else noticed that? If you look at the picture, do us a favor, just hide the hands.
Because they know what's coming. They know what's coming. Put them in the front pocket, no, back pocket.
GUTFELD: Yes, they did.
MURDOCH: Do you not show the hands. Look at the photo.
GUTFELD: And also, if you look at the photo -- look how frightened the dog is. The dog is terrified.
MURDOCH: Because the hands are moving.
FAILLA: I actually thought that was a police photo from his DUI. His hands behind --
GUTFELD: All right, we've got to roll. Later in the show, remember Blockbuster Video, there's only one left in the whole world and we sent Kat there to talk to the people keeping it alive. But first, they had no qualms about greasing palms. The college bribery scandal, that's next.
(Cheering and Applause)
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
GUTFELD: They played academic Cupid because their kids were stupid. How about that college bribery scheme, huh? Wealthy parents paying big money to get their dumb kids into big name schools.
The indictment includes actresses, Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin -- who cares, really? An alleged scam mastermind, William Singer. Some of the schemes -- paying an SAT prep instructor to either correct the kid's test answers or just take the tests for the kid, creating fake athletic profiles and Photoshopping their kids heads onto athletic bodies -- I just do that for fun, actually.
Loughlin, or whatever paid half a million to get her kids on USC's crew team and they don't even row. The only boat Olivia Jade has seen is the yacht she was on when her mother was indicted. The yacht that belonged to the Chair of Board of Trustees at USC, so what do their futures look like? Don't know, but for Lori it won't involve the Hallmark Channel, and for Olivia Jade, it won't involve Sephora. Both companies dropped them.
The real question is, will this scam end up leveling the playing field? Because it's not fair. My friend snowball didn't get accepted into Harvard and he made this.
(VIDEO PLAYS)
GUTFELD: Pretty impressive, snowball. All right, Joey, I think one of the big problems here is that college has been an untenable virtue signal because corporations they want -- first, they want a Bachelors, then they want to MA, Masters and then they want a PhD.
I believe because you're a veteran and that's why I'm asking you that corporate should make military service an equal priority and then people will be more inclined to join the military than go to some stupid elite college. What do you say to that?
JONES: I love that idea. I think it is amazing. See, I did go to Georgetown after I graduated from the University of Bombs and Bullets at Parris Island and then EOD school and I'm a little bit worried about this picture ordeal because I've sent some pictures and I had legs in those and when I showed up, they were a little bit upset about that, but I was trying out for the baseball team.
You know, I tell people -- I tell people all the time, when you talk the way I do --
MURDOCH: Wait, I'm sorry, I hate to interrupt you. Listen, he does this [bleep] all the time. It's okay to laugh. It's okay. I know you're feeling like, oh man, laugh. It's cool.
JONES: It's the most interesting thing about me. Come on.
MURDOCH: Here we go.
JONES: But seriously, I tell people all the time, you know, yes, I went to Georgetown. They'll let anybody in these days and I can't say that anymore. I might get in trouble because they will let anybody in.
GUTFELD: When you said you went out for the baseball team, there was such a terrible joke I wanted to make, but I didn't make it --
MURDOCH: Because they weren't -- now, you can. They've been prepped.
GUTFELD: But they're thinking it. I'll tell it during the break. Kat, you went to college.
TIMPF: I sure did.
GUTFELD: Where did you go?
TIMPF: Hillsdale.
GUTFELD: Hillsdale. Interesting.
(Applause)
GUTFELD: You can applause. What do you make of this college scandal? Does it upset you?
TIMPF: Yes, well in the case of Lori Loughlin, I honestly think that potentially having to go to prison so your daughter could attend college to get Instagram likes is sadder than Old Yeller, but I also think that it's not wrong to want to help your kids, like my parents helped me a little bit, like I remember one time they even bought me a name-brand Trapper Keeper so that was like the best day.
But by doing this, they're not creating futures for their kids. They're creating monsters because they're teaching them that they're so entitled they don't have to worry about things like responsibility or hard work or being grateful, that they don't have to face consequences. They're just going to have everything handed to them and they can do whatever they want.
So they're trying to create scholars, but they're creating nightmares and all these nightmares are taking up the spots of kids who actually deserved it based on their merits and that's really, really sick.
(Applause)
GUTFELD: Tyrus? Do you agree?
MURDOCH: I'm a parent.
GUTFELD: Yes, you are a parent.
MURDOCH: And I love my kids to death and one of them can't color in the lines and I'm not paying for him to go anywhere, but like I love him to death, but come on, bro, I don't care if it was $17.00, he ain't going like he can't color in the lines.
As bad as this is and I honestly think they should go to jail and I can't wait to see that, that'll be fun, the mascara running and stuff and then you know at that point they'll be begging for President Trump for pardons even you know, most of them was supposed to be living in Canada, right, when the election happened, but my favorite part of the whole thing was the phone calls.
If you guys haven't read the whole story, this is one -- the parents knew what they had. So when they were on the phone with the guy, the test taker and they were trying to negotiate how they were going to do the test, how they're going to scam the schools, the kids were sitting there and they're like, "I think we can we can give them like a 710," and they look at their kids, 'No, make it lower."
(Laughter)
MURDOCH: They're not going to believe -- as soon as they see, they're not going to believe that [bleep], make it lower.
GUTFELD: You know what's funny though, and then Tyrus, when they got the fake high scores, the kids wanted to take it again. They say, "Whoa, whoa I got a 710. I should get a perfect score."
MURDOCH: Yes, that's when their parents reminded they were made out of love because they love their dad a little too much because if they had better brains, they would've went with the science kid in high school because you're dumb. Like this isn't your score, like mommy had to do this for you.
GUTFELD: Yes, exactly.
MURDOCH: So that's probably why the kid's attitude was like look, "I only go to school for beer parties and football." That was $500,000.00?
GUTFELD: Just do that then. You save money. Just go to football --
TIMPF: You can still go to the party.
MURDOCH: Bulldozer parents.
GUTFELD: They love it when people that aren't in school come to your parties. You see the drug dealer, Jimmy?
FAILLA: This is an uncomfortable story for me because I'm afraid they're going to find out about the four pack of Zima my parents used to get me into Nassau Community College. That dime bag could come back to haunt us, you know what I mean?
You've got to think of the perks of this story. At least now we know how Michael Avenatti got into law school. That makes sense.
(Cheering and Applause)
FAILLA: To Kat's point about merit, which she is right to say that, I also do know a lot of people who would do anything to have not gone to college and gotten a $400,000.00 degree in gender studies that's made them a barista for the next 65 years.
So in a lot of ways, maybe a couple of people dodged a bullet here. But I think every parent -- I have a parent, I am a parent anyway and I think every parent -- this has gone on forever is in denial. We all have a parent who thinks their kid is a lot better than he is. We all have a parent who thinks their kid is going pro, you know what I mean? Like Bradley is going to be in the major leagues.
I'm like, yes, Bradley wears a t-shirt in the pool. He's not looking great right now.
GUTFELD: What's wrong with that?
FAILLA: Nothing as far as I am concerned, Greg.
GUTFELD: You know some of us were a little self-conscious. We developed earlier than most other boys.
TIMPF: I shower in a wetsuit.
GUTFELD: Yes, I wear boxers to the -- anyway, you know what, this is why I don't have kids. I don't have kids because I worked hard on my life and I don't need them to get me into jail, all right. I don't have kids. I don't have to worry about college. I'll adopt them when they're 19.
All right, up next, Mark Zuckerberg is developing a mind-reading device. That guy is starting to get on my nerves.
AISHAH HASNIE, CORRESPONDENT: Live from "America's News Headquarters," I'm Aishah Hasnie. A New Zealand man is being called a hero for confronting the terror suspect. Dozens died at the Al Noor Mosque and seven at the Lynwood Mosque. Witnesses say the death toll would have been higher at Lynwood if not for Abdulaziz who had picked up a credit card machine and ran outside screaming, "Come here." He says the attacker ran to his car, and that's when he threw the machine after another confrontation, the suspect sped away in his car, 50 people died including a three-year-old boy.
A U.S. Navy veteran held in Iran has been sentenced to 10 years in prison. An attorney for Michael White says he was convicted of insulting the Supreme Leader and posting private information. The 46-year-old was detained in July while visiting his girlfriend. I am Aishah Hasnie, now back to "The Greg Gutfeld Show."
GUTFELD: The Facebook bots wants to read your thoughts, Mark Zuckerberg recently discussed his company's ongoing development of a brain computer interface. It'll look like a shower cap, you put on your head, it'll measure your brain activity and the data it gathers would be used to fill the screen in front of you.
In other words, the computer could read your freaking mind. The upside, if I'm worried about morning traffic, the machine would show me the traffic patterns. The downside is, of course Facebook knows what I'm thinking about Ruth Buzzi in a bikini. Ruth Buzzi joke. But Zuck's not the only one working on this crap.
Thought powered robots have already been developed by MIT. This is happening and even Elon Musk is working on his own brain computer technology with a startup company, Neuralink. I wonder if it can read what these bozos are thinking.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
CHRIS CUOMO, ANCHOR, CNN: When were we ever greater than we are today? More free, more inclusive.
DON LEMON, ANCHOR, CNN: Boy, the way Glen Mellow play --
CUOMO: Songs that made the hit parade. Guys like us we had it made.
LEMON: Guys like us we had it made. Those were the days --
LEMON: This is my favorite part.
CUOMO: I would have to be Archie --
LEMON: And you knew --
CUOMO: Men, we're men.
LEMON: Men, we're men. Oh my gosh.
CUOMO: Mister, we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
GUTFELD: Oh my god, that is CNN at their best. All right, Tyrus, you must have thought about this because I read your thoughts.
MURDOCH: That's going to be in my brain for a long time. Oh man.
GUTFELD: Yes, I am sorry.
MURDOCH: Someone kicked me my stuff. Go ahead. I'm all right. Go ahead.
GUTFELD: Yes, yes, does it scare you?
MURDOCH: What?
GUTFELD: The mind-reading.
MURDOCH: Yes, I am real scared about mind reading like my face, like you can't tell what I'm thinking. How many jobs I've lost with the face. I let them read my mind, pretty much my face is like, "I hate you." I can't hide it. The thing is it's going to be what? An honesty meter? Like you're going to realize that all guys think about is porn and food. I mean, for men it's going to be really bad and for women, it is going to be really long stories with lots of adjectives.
And you have to understand and then you're going to see what they really dreamed of before they married you, like tall, slender and smart, on time, unrealistic goals. You think about all that [bleep] and mine is like food, weightlifting, naked chick -- it's not going to be -- men will be fine.
GUTFELD: We can already read minds for men, it's bills, you worry about bills, your sex and what to eat -- that's 99%. That's all you need.
MURDOCH: And how to get out of things.
GUTFELD: How to get out of things.
MURDOCH: Like how do I get out of taking out the trash tonight.
GUTFELD: Jimmy, one expert in this in this area says that this will destroy love because you can't fall in love with somebody if you know what they're thinking right then and there. I think that's interesting.
FAILLA: I don't know. I disagree in that it can save long-term marriages, like he's married, okay, think of it this way and he probably wants to read his wife's mind as far as what she's dreaming about so he knows what he'll get in trouble for in the morning, you know what I mean? Why were you making out with that turtle? You know, something like that.
But it is, it's kind of freaky to me and every time I hear one of these like Facebook ripped us off stories, it makes me want to go back and apologize to Tom from MySpace. Remember Tom from MySpace?
GUTFELD: Of course, Tom.
FAILLA: Tom was the social media one who got away for us. He treated us right. He didn't care, but what's scary is like whenever they say they're developing it when it comes to technology, it means they already have. They did.
GUTFELD: Yes, they've got it.
FAILLA: They're just getting it out there to see how we react.
GUTFELD: Yes, Kat, whose mind would you read first?
TIMPF: I don't really want to read anyone's mind. I don't think I could handle it emotionally. I just don't understand why this like skinny man in his little hoodies is so obsessed with figuring out what everyone's thinking all the time, but I'm not really that worried about it because I don't think it would affect me that much.
GUTFELD: Why?
TIMPF: Because I very rarely think before I speak anyway. For me, if you wanted to read my mind, you wouldn't need a mind-reading machine, you just need to give me like three beers. Give me like three beers and be like, "Kat, what's up?" I'd be like, "I peed my pants in the first grade in class and way, I mean, nothing much, how about you?"
GUTFELD: You're still thinking about that.
TIMPF: It was really traumatic. I had Girl Scouts after school and I just didn't tell anybody and I just hoped I didn't smell.
GUTFELD: Funny, that happened to me as well. Joey, last word to you. Could this be helpful for anybody?
JONES: Well, you know as a fellow robot, it's a lot to take up with Zuckerberg. I don't like for him to --
(Cheering and Applause)
JONES: My best one, all night.
GUTFELD: If you went and did -- what is that called? My Heritage? What's it called?
JONES: Ancestry.
GUTFELD: Yes, you're 50% Terminator.
JONES: That would be pretty cool.
FAILLA: Hey, his test went better than Elizabeth Warren.
GUTFELD: I'm scared of this. It's going to ruin everything. You can be walking around, you're going to be here hearing everybody's thoughts. It's not good because what we think about, it's not good what's in there. We keep it in there for a reason because it's evil and bad. Still ahead, you get hired if the recruiter is wired. Robots again. Robots conducting job interviews. That's next.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: Can you now dress like a slob when interviewed for a job? Meet Tengai -- who hasn't? A robot designed to conduct job interviews without bias. It's the creation of a company called Furhat Robotics and it's supposed to eliminate the predisposed judgement -- see, I'm not a robot -- that a human interviewer may have.
Tengai just cares about your qualifications. It doesn't worry about your sex, your race, your religion or that you've got a huge bug crawling up your neck.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
SEAN HANNITY, ANCHOR: When we come back, Trace Gallagher is here next to give us all the new developments in two cases -- Jussie Smollett and the College Admission scam. Geraldo Rivera, Rachel Campos Duffy will join us and our villain of the day was involved in a really shocking crime. You will see that straight ahead.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
GUTFELD: That is pro, pro work. To do that without flinching, anyway, back to Tengai, he has a human-like face. His eyes blink. That's to make it less weird that you're talking to a machine in the hopes that he'll hire you, not a bad idea, then again I once had a horrible interview with a robot. Here's how it ended.
(VIDEO PLAYS)
GUTFELD: I couldn't resist. Kat, great idea? Bad idea?
TIMPF: I think it is the best idea ever because I could go to a job interview without having to worry about like getting ready or putting on makeup or anything --
MURDOCH: Why are you always complaining about putting on makeup?
TIMPF: Because you don't - do you know what it's like to have to put on a full face of makeup? That's right, you don't and you don't because you are guys. And you get to just go along and use all that extra time to learn how to become President while all of us are sitting at home rubbing the toxic sparkly things on our faces trying to get husbands.
I do not even wear makeup when I'm not on camera, you want to know why, Greg?
GUTFELD: Why?
MURDOCH: Why?
TIMPF: Because number one, it does -- it still doesn't -- you know, I'm still not good enough if I do. I got an e-mail from a viewer last week that said, "Oh, you're kind of pretty, but you're really pale you should get a tan," which I found compelling, but at the same time I would prefer not, cancer.
And the second part, I don't know how to put it on, like ladies, how do you do it? Will one of you please teach me how to look to put on makeup? Every time, I put on makeup I have all these clumps in my eyelashes and even if I get it right, I get like these marks underneath and make it look like a raccoon just punched me in the face.
And then I also like my eyeliner like I have a shaky hand, so it always looks like I did it in an electric chair, it looks awful and like don't even get me started on and let hair extensions, oh my --
MURDOCH: Okay, enough. You know what? If you have such --
TIMPF: Oh, enough. I've had enough. I'll tell you, I've had enough. I've enough hair extension. I've had enough. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of it.
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: So Joey, about robots --
JONES: First of all, life must be really hard for you. I would take a leg off and join you, but I can't even hop out of here, you know.
GUTFELD: You're comparing about make up in front of Joey Jones.
JONES: You know, I am kidding. It is tough. It is really -- worn that pretty and have to paint over it every day. No, yes, I feel like this is a custom curated show, just for me with all the robots and things, but bias is an accumulation of all the wisdom and experiences you have, right? Like bias isn't always negative. It's your gut feeling.
Like come on. I don't get this. And also, that's the only way I'm getting a job, you know, I wasn't real great at my last one. I got a win you over there, you know. Like, I've got to bring you in and get a smile on your face. What am I going to say with this robot? "What's up, cuz?" You know, I don't know.
GUTFELD: Jimmy, I almost forgot your name, Jimmy.
FAILLA: What they don't tell you is this is a Swedish company, so you have to build the robot yourself. By the time you get done with that, the interview is over.
I actually don't think it's a good idea because I think when you interview, you're trying to get a read for the person's character and you could just go in there and lie. I mean, essentially this robot is going to wind up hiring a bunch of Lori Loughlin's daughters, you know what I mean?
That's why USC's equestrian team is in last place. They all weigh 425 pounds. It's kind of hard for the horse to jump over the apparatus. I'm sorry.
GUTFELD: All right last word, Tyrus?
MURDOCH: Why the face have to be white on a robot, Greg?
GUTFELD: That is true.
MURDOCH: Racist ass company. I am sitting here watching like, it has got to be, white, right? Okay. I don't know what the hell that is, that's the thing from Avatar. The thing in the commercial was a white dude with rosy cheeks.
GUTFELD: They need a robot.
MURDOCH: Yes, they need a robot.
GUTFELD: All right, up next, we sent Kat to the last remaining Blockbuster Video on earth. It's the only way to get her to go outside.
(Cheering and Applause)
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
GUTFELD: The second-to-last Blockbuster store in Australia announced it will close this month, which means there will only be one store left in the world. Yes, the last Blockbuster in Bend, Oregon will remain open and the manager says they have no plans of closing. So that's pretty cool.
There used to be over 9,000 stores worldwide, so to be the last one remaining is kind of an achievement. It's like outliving everyone in your family.
We sent our own Kat Timpf to investigate how this endangered species has managed to survive.
(BEGIN VIDEO TAPE)
TIMPF: I finally reached the end of a long, exhausting journey, all the way to the exotic location of Bend, Oregon where the last remaining specimen of an endangered species still survives -- Blockbuster Video.
At its height, there were more than 9,000 stores. How did this one survive all of the vicious predators like Netflix and Hulu, I'm going to find out.
So why do you like to come get movies at Blockbuster instead of streaming them online?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Well, basically I don't have a capability of doing it. I don't have a computer and stuff, and it's a lot cheaper.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Sometimes having so many options can be a little daunting and being able to just like come here and look like they have less, but in this case, less is more.
TIMPF: Do you know about Netflix?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes. I'm not a big fan, actually.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I liked how they have the older movies that you can't find on Netflix or any site online.
TIMPF: Did you move here because of the Blockbuster?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: No, but maybe that's a good idea.
TIMPF: So do you feel sorry for me living in New York City with no Blockbuster?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I do you feel sorry for you, yes.
TIMPF: Do you wish that there were more Blockbusters?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I kind of like having the last one. It's like my own little thing.
TIMPF (voice over): I sat down with Sandy Harding, the Blockbuster general manager to see how she's kept the store alive.
TIMPF (on camera): First of all, Sandy, I just wanted to thank you for saving Blockbusters. You are a true American Hero.
SANDY HARDING, GENERAL MANAGER, BLOCKBUSTER: Oh, well thank you.
TIMPF: So how does it feel to have survived this long beyond all the others?
HARDING: It feels pretty amazing, actually. I'm very proud to be representing Blockbuster and the city of Bend.
TIMPF: Is there something bigger than DVDs at stake here?
HARDING: Oh absolutely. It's a family business. I mean we have relationships here that we have created over the years. I mean, I have - all my employees are family. I mean, they called me the Blockbuster mom. They're all getting married now and having kids. Now, I'm having a Blockbuster grandkids and I mean, this is a family business.
TIMPF: What would you say if there was a young woman who had spent about 10 years of her life renting only "Happy Gilmore" over and over again?
HARDING: Are we talking about you?
TIMPF: I didn't say we were talking about me, is it possible you'll ever want to open a new Blockbuster?
HARDING: I would love to see the revitalization of Blockbuster. I just don't know if it's feasible.
TIMPF: What if Blockbuster combined with other companies for survival, kind of like you know how there is a Dunkin Donuts/Baskin-Robbins.
HARDING: I'm open for suggestions.
TIMPF: Blockbuster/funeral-home? Blockbuster/Enron? Blockbuster/AMC Movie Theater, watch a movie, get a movie movie-movie? Blockbuster/Jiffy Lube? Blockbuster/karate dojo? Blockbuster/Victoria's Secret?
HARDING: I don't know that I'd be able to keep my employees focused.
TIMPF: Well, I'm here to help.
HARDING: No, hey I'm open for suggestions.
TIMPF: What are some of the positive attributes of Blockbuster?
HARDING: The happiness. I mean, you've been here for a little while now and everybody that walks in the doors has a smile on their face. To have some place that's positive that everybody can walk into and have a smile on their face no matter what's happening in their day is pretty important.
TIMPF: I have some new ideas for Blockbuster slogans.
HARDING: Okay.
TIMPF: So I'm going to run these by you, okay?
HARDING: All right.
TIMPF: Blockbuster Video, check me out I'm not dead.
HARDING: I like it.
TIMPF: Blockbuster Video because Hulu causes dysentery.
HARDING: We might get in trouble for that one.
TIMPF: Blockbuster Video because movie theaters have bedbugs.
HARDING: Yes, again I think we might get sued over.
TIMPF: Okay, all right. Blockbuster Video, [bleep] Netflix.
HARDING: This is a family business. I don't think we can say that in public.
TIMPF: Blockbuster video, watch movies at home naked like God intended. Why don't you have a reality show? I mean, if those jerks at Pawn Stars can have a reality show, why is there, "The Sandy Show?"
HARDING: We've had a few people reach out and ask us and talked to us about it, we just haven't had the right thing yet.
TIMPF: Thank you so much, Sandy. It was an honor to meet you. Thank you for all the work you do protecting this endangered specie.
HARDING: Oh, we're so proud to be a Blockbuster. Thank you.
TIMPF: Thank you. Well, it's been quite an adventure. I've learned a lot about Blockbuster and I hope that the world has to.
(END VIDEO TAPE)
(Cheering and Applause)
GUTFELD: All right, what did you learn?
TIMPF: I just wanted to say thank you again to Sandy and everyone at Blockbuster for being such a good sport. It was so much fun. Thanks for having us.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
ANNOUNCER: "Final Thoughts." It's the last thought. That's why it's called the "Final Thoughts," okay.
GUTFELD: Jimmy?
FAILLA: Hey, a couple of things, first of all, I know there's a lot of Beto heat on the show tonight. I've seen a lot of people on Twitter calling him the dumb AOC, stop that. AOC is the dumb AOC. Get that out of the way, thank you.
GUTFELD: Joey, anything?
JONES: Hey, listen, you know, especially today, more than ever. Never apologize for loving your country, your culture, your community, your family more than any other. That's okay. Respect the same thing in other people and maybe we'll get a little further along. I really hate all this bickering.
GUTFELD: Kat, anything?
TIMPF: I was told we had no time for "Final Thoughts." I am fresh out of thoughts.
GUTFELD: All right, Tyrus. Do you have a thought?
MURDOCH: If you want more "Tyrus and Timpf" check out our podcast at foxnews.com.
GUTFELD: Excellent. Thanks to Jimmy Failla, Staff Sergeant Joey Jones, Kat Timpf, Tyrus, studio audience. I am Greg Gutfeld. I love you, America. You, I love you, and you.
