Two months ago, Katt Williams opened 2024 with a nuclear bomb of an interview on Shannon Sharpe’s “Club Shay Shay” podcast. Williams was lauded for being a bold truth-teller for spending nearly three hours coming at everyone not nailed down, and dropping all the names in the process.
But in that interview, Williams made claims that felt unshakably suspect, like his insistence that he read eight actual novels a day seven days a week as a child or that he can run a 4.3 40-yard dash – a speed which many NFL players can’t achieve – as a 52-year-old man.
Well, those wild claims are now in a different context following his interview on “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, released Thursday: Katt Williams just might be out of his rabid mind.
Anyone familiar with Rogan knows that his (very successful) brand functions off of tinfoil-hat conspiracy theories – perhaps the most egregious in recent memory being the suggestion that the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol insurrection was in part a provocation from intelligence agencies.
Williams walked down that bridge toward Hell with Rogan, tossing out conspiracy theories old and new, speaking with his trademark tone and conviction that convinces folks that he must always be telling the truth. Unsurprisingly, the right-wing “manosphere” and that hotep dude who would marry you if you dressed more like a “Black queen” are loving this interview.
Here are the more egregious points he brought up on the podcast in case you don’t want to watch (another) three-hour Katt Williams podcast interview.
The government puts fluoride in water
Despite the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Dental Association, the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American Academy of Pediatrics all signing off on water fluoridation as a safe way to reduce tooth decay, Williams and that one dude from your high school who still lives in his mama’s basement believe it’s slowly killing us all…or turning us into zombies or something.
Water fluoridation is decided on a state level. However, Williams believes that the federal government is doing it as part of a conspiracy to shrink our pineal glands. But he doesn’t take the next step – why is there a government conspiracy to shrink a gland that…controls sleep cycles?
“There are those of us who know what the pineal gland…what medicine says it’s for, and what that would mean,” Williams said, armed with the medical degree no one knew he had.
Aliens built the Egyptian pyramids
Again, this theory was debunked well before anyone reading this was a glimmer in their mama’s eye. Still, even when Elon Musk tweeted “Aliens built the pyramids obv.” in 2020, dude was likely joking but he was retweeted thousands of times by folks in their “See…what did I tell you?!?” bag.
“If you look around the world you see certain telltale things that show you advanced machines were in use,” Williams said, before suggesting that slaves weren’t strong enough to build the pyramids, even though it was determined not long ago that paid workers built the pyramids, not slaves.
According to Williams, the levers and pulleys we had to build structures in the 2000s BC weren’t good enough, so it had to be E.T. and his homeboys. Back to the lab with this one, Katt.
More Illuminati talk
Remember when Williams spoke on “Club Shay Shay” about his and Ludacris’ membership in the Illuminati, and how Luda responded with that ridiculous “freestyle?” I wasn’t sure if Williams was being serious about the Illuminati…but now I don’t think he’s playing at all.
“That’s why I can speak with impunity about the Illuminati because I know who you would have to be in order for what I’m saying to bother you,” Williams told Rogan. “I know your big secret. I know you’re not the Illuminati…I am.”
I’m no Illuminati cognoscenti, but I’m fairly certain a big part of being a member is not admitting publicly that you’re a member. Also, I’m not convinced that an ancient, shadowy and likely racist organization would accept the application of Williams’ loud Black ass.
The devilish trans “agenda”
Williams talk of actors and comedians wearing dresses on “Club Shay Shay” was cute, but he took it to a much darker place with Rogan by suggesting that men wearing dresses is part of a demonic ritual.
“Show me a person that ever wore a dress in Hollywood unsuccessfully. That’s how you understand what a ritual is,” Williams said.
He said he knew 20 years ago that transgenderism would be a “thing,” and that the earliest he’d seen the word was in reference to “Baphomet the Transgender.” Baphomet is an occult deity who has been around for more than a millennium and is now most closely associated with Satanism in the western world.
“To show allegiance to him you had to kiss his ass-ring,” Williams told Rogan.
Again, no follow-through…just an association of trans folks with Satan. Bravo, Katt.
