In this episode, we dive into the recent departure of conservative influencer Brett Cooper from The Daily Wire. We explore the events surrounding her rise to fame, the attempts to replace her, and the gossip and evidence surrounding her exit. We also discuss the broader implications for conservative media, the role of parasocial relationships, and analyze why The Daily Wire may have held Brett back. Tune in for a thorough analysis and our thoughts on what this means for Brett's future and the conservative media landscape.
Malcolm Collins: [00:00:00] I think we all really enjoyed the Brett Cooper goodbye video.
Speaker 2: The peace loving leader of this great country has asked me to appeal to you, to stop your vicious, imperialistic tactics around the globe.
Malcolm Collins: Oh no, not, not that one.
Speaker 6: gonna make a clone, so sneaky Brett won't know, meet the new Brett 2. 0, I know what I'm doing,
Malcolm Collins: This episode is going to be a very gossipy episode. We are going to be going over another conservative influencer, Brett Cooper's recent departure from the daily wire. We are going to be documenting it, the events around it, her rise to fame and the attempt to replace her and the gossip around that.
And the evidence we have for the gossip around that, because I haven't really seen it properly collated in one place before.
Thank goodness, because I've got to say, the [00:01:00] analysis around Brett Cooper's departure from the comments section is just as basic as Brett Cooper, so I am ready for something that's a little bit more interesting.
Speaker 3: Doctor, there has to be a mistake. Well, unfortunately, no. Your symptoms are completely in line with other basic pitches. You're into scented candles, you order your bagel scooped, and then you own a picture frame that says family on it. LUcy, do you have any idea when maybe you first came in contact with all this basic s
I guess, uh, in college. I owned a pair of sweatpants that said sexy on the butt.
Speaker 4: Probably contracted your basic bitchness from the sorority sister. Borrow some Ugg boots here and there.
Experiment with North Face. Yeah. Yeah.
Malcolm Collins: This actually, so I was hanging out on the Discord server today, and I was like, I need to understand. Why is Brett Cooper so big? I literally have nothing against Brett Cooper. I, she seems like [00:02:00] a very pleasant person, but whenever I click on one of her videos, I feel like I already know everything that's going to be said.
Watching paint
dry is more interesting because at least something changes when that happens.
Yeah, like I, I can go into one of her videos and I'm like, this is just gonna be all of the most mainstream, curtailed, publicly acceptable conservative opinions on a topic. It's like AI wrote
it. Maybe it did.
But, hold on, I got a good explanation.
Okay. Because at first I was like, is this just like boomers who are like, but it's not apparently it's not, you know, she says her, her audience is majority Gen Z and it in the, in, in the discord, they explained it to me and I'm like, Oh, I totally get it. Okay. Uh, They say that her content is incredibly low taxation, like mental taxation.
Oh, it doesn't stress you out at all.
Okay.
And I know exactly what they mean by that. Yeah. There's some YouTubers who I really like and I'll [00:03:00] see they put out a piece and I'm like, look, I want to watch this piece, but I am not in the mood to digest. Oh, to process it
all. And you watch a lot of high processing channels.
Okay. Yes,
but I also watch low processing channels and a good low processing channel. I watch is asthma gold for example and they're like brett cooper is asthma gold for conserva
